Would it be possible to integrate an MP3-Player (perhaps a Videoplayer, but this can be difficult with law in some countries)?

So you listen to your Music while driving, Music stops if Soundfile has to be played, music goes on.

I am almost done with the MP3 player. It can already process an m3u file and cycle through them. The occasional soundfiles simply interrupt them pretty much the way you described. The big issue is user interface. I think we can have a simple version quite soon... I'll talk to deniska about it...
( At the moment I am working on a GPSFS optimizer for Windows; it evaluates the GPSFS, can recompress the tiles and you can choose to omit given levels... I hope to release it in about 2 weeks, than I can focus on the MP3 again... )

Thanks for answer, sounds really great :thumbup:

Take the time you need to integrate those features... I'm still wondering about your skills :)

Thanks for that!

Two things i would like in the future is a possibility to chose Max speed instead of Average speed. Would be nice to know ;)
The other thing is that the white line that is drawn to the destination is hard to see when the background is white, shouldnt it have another color?

And offcourse something everyone wants is the Route Calculation feature in PSP without using GMDL :)

How about an odometer or trip meter accurate to the hundredths place?

I can include 2 decimal spaces but don't think that cumulative gps readings would provide such accuracy...

I think it would be... at least for miles. For miles it'd be down to about 17 meters per .01 mile. For KM... your probably right .01 accuracy is probably too much to ask from a GPS receiver thats +/- 2 meters or so.
But I would be so appreciative :P

How many recompression is possible on the tiles MIB.42 ? Because whole map of Germany is already 2 gb, that should be 1 gb.

Well, it's all about what you don't mind sacrificing.
At the moment only JPG recompression is supported in the jpg quality range of 20%~90%. At 20% the texts are still readable, but barely. I get around 30% ~ 110% of the original size respectively.
An other way of reducing the map sizes are eliminating entire levels or individual tiles. The program does that too.
I am at the final stages now, writing out the new filesystem should work tonite or tomorrow.
I plan on posting v0.1 in a couple of days.
( PNG recompress does not work at this release. For that I plan on reducing color from 256 to 16, which buys a good 30%+ reduction )

Is it possible to not make the screen go to minimum brightness, and then to off, whatever the PSP settings? It's a bit weird when the PSP turns black all the time when you're driving.
