the mds file is only 1kb, how does that work?

Alcholol complained for me too, invalid image. I used Imgburn, it burned the image, later when verifying it mentioned errors in sector 3. I ignored the errors, used the CD and updated the software in the car without any problem. The only difference I saw was the already mentioned "Avoid Ferries" option for route.

Thanks for sharing,
David

I think it references the other file and burns it.

Thank you Thank you Thank you:thumbup:
Save me the Magaupload BS:mad:

For all of you that downloaded Cris_h's rapidshare...It is true that something is a little wrong with the mds and mdf files.
DON'T PANIC
Try first to mount this image at a virtual drive with Alcohol 120% and then try the "copy wizard" option from Alcohol. Select as source the virtual drive and as target the Physical CD Recorder of your computer.:thumbup:

If there's something wrong with them, how come I burnt them OK and updated my nav system with them?

I had the exact same experience too. My updated worked fine, despite the ImgBurn verify errors.

Hi guys,

My first post here, but I have been reading this forum now for many months ...

Just thought I would share a discovery with you all ...

\V_2\RR\0101\BMWC01S\app_sw\tioarch.tar seems to contain some config files and some of the options look like the ones some people are desperate for ...

nav_gd.tio
----------
[OffroadGuidance]
OffroadGuidanceMode=1
OffroadGuidanceVoiceMessageMode=1

0 being true and 1 being false, hmmm I wonder ...

Regards,

Odia.

Quick question
 

Used search, but couldn't find an answer...

Currently my Nav shows distances in km units. If I upgrade to 27.1 or 28 for that matter, will it stay in km or change to miles?

Thanks.

It will remain the same. However, you can change this in settings anyway!
