I have searched around regarding the appropriate sound format for POIs for the 1490T and have found conflicting guidance.

What should I be using, WAV or MP3?

Thanks in advance, the forum and team are a great resource and am very glad that I found them.

Shane, Garmin seem to be heading towards the wav format, but I would try an MP3 first, and if it doesn't work then use the wav format.
Strange to go that way but they may have found it to be less problematic for users..

Use the wav file but remember to download the sox.exe file as well:
