Hello gentlemen !
Congratulations for the job that has been done to improve our NAV !
Speed cameras are so numbered in France !
Up to now, I used the "old method" to implement speed camera in my nav (by adding new POI, and edition of relevant files).
I would like of course to work as it is proposed in this post, with addition of sound.
Unfortunatly, even after reviewing the complete 22 pages, I still not be able to open DB files with poison, I've always the same result "Unable to open database files".
I've tried with different versions of GTK (currently 2.14), but always the same result.
I've tried with DVD High 2009-01, also with previous versions 2008-2 and 2007-2 and even replay the complete sequence on another computer, but always unsuccessfully.
I've copied the original DB directory (with the 4 files as mentioned in the beginning of the subject) under GTK/bin with poison program as it was proposed in different posts, but it's the same.
Any idea to explain what can be done to solve my problem ?
Could the program have any restriction while running under windows in french language (dot point configured in control panel)?
Thanks in advance !

If using DVD based database: Copy Bibliography file and the whole DB directory to a new directory in your hard disk. Modify attributes of all files thus copied to "non read only". Then proceed with PoiSon in the normal way. Direct PoiSon to load database from your new directory (where you just copied the Bibliography file).
Hope this helps.

You have to put DB_0 and DB_1 in a folder named DB (the same layout you have in your original DVD).
