    Quick follow up here: having just returned from extensive travelling across Europe I need to confess that the sample GPI files - as regularly & kindly shared via another thread in this forum - probably do not work at all...?

    Since my previous contribution - so at the end of last year - I've been using my GPS during rather boring commute, twice a week either. I also did have and utilise connection via BT with Smartlink on my phone. So that means that any cameras that my satnav reported were 'sourced' live, from Garmin servers.

    Now, it just so happened that during one leg of a journey in Europe I did forget to re-enable Smartlink connection - and my satnav remained suspiciously silent, to that extent that I almost bravely exceeded the speed in a place I knew camera's present...!

    Is there any way to have these files verified in some way?

    Meanwhile I just acquired 1-year subscription from Garmin and will play with nuvicam settings again.

    EDITED TO ADD: SO after my trip today I can confirm that safety cameras (as obtained via subscription last week) do work correctly regardless of my satnav having been fully restarted, or just put down to sleep and awoken again. Also, having the satnav connected via BT (but without Smartlink in place) does not seem to cause any problem either.

    So I daresay these trial Safety Camera POIs - that are regularly & kindly shared via another thread in this forum - probably do not work correctly at all, at least with my satnav.
