| Posted by speedlever What's the difference? When you are going to choose a file to download, what is the difference between: -Garmin POI GPX (or CSV) -Garmin POI (Custom POI with extended info)-options -Garmin GPX (proximity alert, phone dial, etc.)-options (found here: http://www.gps-data-team.com/gps-poi.php ) I assume the first choice has nothing except the coordinates of the POI? In the 2nd choice, I don't know what the options mean. Also, what does extended info mean? In the third choice, it sounds like you can d/l the GPX file with alert distance of your choosing. So does this choice provide the alert distance of your choosing along with extended info... whatever that is? |
| Posted by rongoodwin What's the difference speedlever, I suggest you download 1 of each type -Garmin POI GPX (or CSV) -Garmin POI (Custom POI with extended info)-options -Garmin GPX (proximity alert, phone dial, etc.)-options and experiment to see which one suits your unit best. Some have the .BMP and .MP3 files embedded. Some you have to download these seperate. Cheers :wink: |
| Posted by speedlever embedded MP3? Thanks ron. It would be good to know which files have embedded mp3 files. My 1690 is mp3 impaired and can only do WAV files. |
| Posted by bernienchris Embedded mp3 None have embedded mp3 or wav files, they need to be downloaded separately, at least that's what i have found to date. Cheers, :) |
