If I sort it out I wil be more than glad to report what was wrong on benefit of the forum!!

Editing the ITA.LSC (eng.lsc for me) file for extra POI options.

I am not sure what/where to operate into LSC file. I can open it with word or hex editor but do not know where to add lines and "pointer (??)"

Notepad or textedit.

Hi everybody,
as known (to all of you) after about 35thousand questions

I was able to do it by myself. Edited my .lsc file added new POIs categories, screen and so on..so I have my very personal DVD HIGH 2009-2!!
Now..is anybody able to explain how the asc2mk4_igh.exe and asc2idxurl_mk4.exe handle the .asc format file of POI to get the .idx and .url files required by the BMW system?.....Thanks

Not as such, they just convert them so that the OEM bmw system can read them.

AFAIK, it just shifts the data around and makes the 2 files.

Hi dearest,

yes very close to. I opened with hex editor the .url and .idx files and it is the actual data mixed up with something else. I am not an expert of programming but is there any way to "decode" the dos exe fle in order to have a look at the program structure?
Thanks for your outstanding help mate
