v25 - downloaded it from here.

I've never seen an option for that. The only view styles I have are:
- North orientated (vehicle icon in the centre, map scrolls)
- Direction of Travel (vehicle icon moves, map static except during 'redraws')

Are you sure there is an option when using 'direction of travel' as the orientation which forces the car icon to stay in the centre? I can't find one.

Not to worry... hopefully v26 should fix that!

Will this simply be a software upgrade that can be applied to any DVD BMW system?

Assuming it's like prior updates, then yes.

I believe that with mine, when I have Direction of Travel selected and I am at a "zoomed in" setting that it will scroll as you describe. However, when I am zoomed further out (I typically have mine set at the 2.5 mile scale) it keeps the vehicle centered in the map and the map moves around it.

Yes, this happens with mine - however when you zoom out beyond a certain scale it is actually changing to 'North Orientated' view rather than the 'Direction of Travel' view - that explains the change.

Here's a couple of pictures of the V26 screens from Andy in the UK

I would love it to stay centered when zoomed in as often I find the car is getting so close to the border that I can't see the next turn when its only 200-300m away... Yes you can zoom out but then you lose detail.

Would be good if that was addressed, and my pet gripe of not using the GPS time to set the clock by

Anybody got their hands on v26?

Thank you and welcome. We will be looking for that link to V26 and hope to see it soon. Your willingness to help is very much appreciated!
