It looks like this is actually a Windows Media Player check. Departure recalculations do not change the saved version of the route in the GPS.Thanks AngelD. In the absence of a switch to turn off automatic recalculation upon departures, the solution is to simply reload the original route after one returns to it. This is normally a good thing, but it may not be so if it is important to follow a route EXACTLY as created in MapSource. the Nuvi does not recognize avoid areas on its own etc) upon any departure from the route. However, unlike the Zumo apparently, the route may get changed whenever the Nuvi recalculates (and applies its own routing parameters e.g.

Like the Zumo, any routes transferred and imported to my Nuvi 750 are EXACTLY like and can be navigated just as they were created in MapSource (including any avoid areas set in MapSource). Recalculate the route in MapSource (give it time for long routes) and show on the map. Long waypoint names seem to get truncated but they are there. The converted route will be named 'journey'. est file that contains a route (before opening in POIconverter make sure 'routes' is selected in the data option) and save the result as a Garmin. : )ДЇor those using S&T for planning trips, routes etc and wishing to transfer the results to MapSource for loading into their GPS, POIconverter will convert S&T waypoints AND routes to MapSource.ДЇor routes, open a saved M&S. Wow, that was probably way too much information. Or for Iron Butt riders, if you want to program in the 15 minute stops, every x number of hours, you can do that. Or if you want to stop driving by a certain time at night and continue the next day, the program will do this. For example, if you know that you want to stop for fuel every 150 miles, it's easy to do. The advantages of S&T are that you can program fuel stops. And then of course you have to convert it for use with the GPS unit.

Only the points are, so using it with a Garmin unit inherently necessitates including enough points to ensure that the route goes where you want. With S&T, the routing information is not saved with the file. But if they are placed properly, they won't be flagged on the map screen nor announced by the navigation prompts. These are points that serve only to force the route down a particular road. No exporting, no converting.ДЄnd the Zumo is also designed to work with what Garmin calls Shaping Points. Simply create the route and click the 'Send to Device' button and you are done. The routes will WORK if the maps aren't the same, but there's a chance that the route WILL be changed if the unit encounters data in the route that isn't contained in the unit.ДЄlso, using MapSource is easier (to me) because there are fewer steps to get the route to the unit. So it's imperative that the unit and MapSource are using the same version of the maps. The critical part is that the maps must be identical. With the Zumo and MapSource, this isn't necessary. The way that users of previous units got around this was to put TONS of waypoints in the route so that the route was forced to go the way you wanted. So not recalculating the route is a HUGE deal. But for most motorcyclists using it to plan trips, we want to go a specific way down specific roads in a specific order. Now in a car, this might not matter much. Most previous GPS units (even Garmins) recalculate the route once it is sent to the unit which often results in the route taking a different path than was planned. Well, the advantage that MapSource has over both of them as far as being used with the Zumo is that the Zumo was designed to take the route from MapSource and not recalculate it.
