Well folks, I finally plumped for a VIA 62; fab in all respects with the exception of loading camera info from here.
Before anyone has a moan I did a good search of our forum and didn't really come up with much. Additionally I printed off the manual from the website - 114 pages and not helpful at all. Nearly wore out my printer.
The prob is:
Using the community, it seems only accept OV2s - no OGGs etc
So the question is how do I get everything onto the VIA?
Can everything from here, voices, icons etc be placed on the just found SD card slot?
Thanks in advance all.
Best regards
Phil

No TT since 2012 has accepted third party cameras.

Plenty of previous posts/moans.

Take it back as unfit for purpose and get a Garmin, they still accept 3rd party poi's. A big step if you are used to TomTom, but you soon get used to it.

you would not have had to ask the question as there is dozens of posts saying it can't be done on the latest TTs.

It is always best to ask first, buy second. Very Happy
