![]() It worked fine, but it was also kind of sad knowing that poor little POILoader was digesting 7000 benchmarks - which I'll only update every month or two - just so I could get my much smaller geocaching POIs updated after the morning's PQ arrived. oh yes, and caches - musn't forget those caches! Previously, I'd been tossing an assortment of GPX and CSV files into a folder, firing up POILoader, and letting it munch and crunch its way through all the files. ![]() I'm not sure about everyone else, but I've got several sources of Custom POIs - benchmarks, places I want to find easily on business trips, well-reviewed restaurants I want to try. Ever actually tried putting more than one file in that folder.?įor tonight's edition of "Silly Garmin POI Tricks", I'll use the POILoader program and the GPSr's USB Mass Storage interface to create multiple Custom POI files on a 76CSx, and along the way perhaps manage to justify this as something more than an effective treatment for chronic insomnia. Ever wonder if you could put more than one file in that folder.? Ever wonder why they created a whole subdirectory to store one file.? Okay, so we all know that POILoader sucks in one or more GPX/CSV files, munches and crunches the data, and spits out a file called poi.gpi into the \Garmin\Poi\ subdirectory on your microSD card, right? I don't remember seeing this covered in previous threads for the Garmin Custom POI, and since there's going to be a number of pictures I thought it'd be best to start a fresh topic rather than dumping this beastie into the middle of an existing thread.
