How do i add Speed Camera csv

just tried this with the map monkey download of the uk speedcams and when I select the file and hit ok it just shows an empty favorites screen and no speedcams imported.

nevermind I had the file open with excel as well and it must have locked it. All importing now.

Here is an example of the format, it's the same other GPS softwares on mp3car used, you could search these forums as well and find tons of information and files...

Code:

---

Type,Longitude,Latitude,Name,Speed
"MOBILE","-1.41791","52.32594","1","0"
"MOBILE","-1.04597","51.45426","10","0"
"MOBILE","-4.28974","51.8189","100","0"
"GATSO","-1.39172","53.25751","1000","0"
"GATSO","-1.38327","53.25888","1001","0"
"GATSO","-1.36801","53.26044","1002","0"
"GATSO","-1.35931","53.2644","1003","0"

David, can you provide a correct file that actually works?!? That code is not correct.

After getting "incorrect file format" message on all files I have found, all made for MapMonkey and identical format to your code, I tried making a file with your code and get the same message :(

ask hatton920 where he got his files, they seemed to work for him... I wrote it based on file format I posted, so not sure what the problem is unless your saving to a weird text format I can't read or something...

david

I pasted the text into notepad and saved, after that renamed the file to speedcams.csv and tried to import it.

What kind of weird text format are you using :tard:

It really cant be simpler than a comma separated file as you are using, a comma is used as field separator and "" are used as text qualificator.... So how about testing this yourself? You are either using a different format, or something is wrong with RC4.

If someone has a working file for RC4 please post it.

I have attached a working mapmonkey csv file for MapMonkey. It is the same format as you have posted but it does not work in RC4.

Do you have a error.log? It might be the ending character of the file and I didn't check for it...

See if there is an empty line at the bottom of the file...

david

Yes there was a empty line after the last cam. But even after removing that and saving the file I still get "incorrect file format" with both your code and the file I had.

Within the Flux Media folder I find only 1 .log file, and that is called update.log.
I cant find a error.log anywhere.

i got them imported via a .dat conversion but how do i show all the favs on that list on not just one at a time
would be great if you could add custom POI i think this would be a great advantage to use all

same problem here.
I get the "wrong file format" error by using a .csv file (destinator format from poihandler.com). cf tries to import any other file like .inf or .bmp without the "wrong file format" error, but cant import because of corrupted file.
favorites are only working without import and copying a destinator .dat file into the common/favorites folder.

I will check the format at poihandler.com, I used the format that mapmonkey was using...

I also could have an error in their somewhere... loading a INF shouls incorrect file format, makes me think some code is backwards somewhere...

will get it in the next update...
