Maps and POIs for Discover Media

[vdeknock]

A working solution to getting speed camera information into the system is now available. Look for a thread in the VW Car Audio section for a How-to

Can anyone help me with a copy of an original "metainfo2.txt" file - I have a 2013 Golf MQB here with discoverpro and it can't read that file.

2013 year map was a no go also. Followed the instructions to the letter but the screen displayed the dreaded 'The navigation data in the infotainment system are not valid. Please check data.' Reloaded my back up V1 and I'm back to original.

My SD card is part number 5G0919866A.
2015 DB info is for part number 5G0919866R

system info with v1 map installed is:

Device part number: 5G0035846A
Hardware: 040
Software: 0421
Navigation database: 5G0919866A 0022 ROW 2013

Any chance you can send me your maps file as I deleted my back up and have no maps.

Here is my file including all the cameras in Australia (fixed, red light, point to point, mobile, etc) altogether 1912 map points. Created by POInspector software and POIs downloaded from poidb.com. Also added the POIs for Mcdonalds.

If you are struggling to import POIs to your Discover Media unit, try this. Download the zip file, unzip it and copy the PersonalPOI directory and the metainfo2.txt file onto your SD card then import it.

The file(s) are 4.9Gb & being about the only area in Oz still with (very slow) ADSL2+ it would take forever plus a few days!
