Hardware-Rendering needs more Akkupower since Update March 2016
Same here, the battery consumption increased a lot with the new rendering (I suspect it to be the cause). I could test that easily. On my Galaxy S5 without charging, the current consumption is roughly one percent/minute, close to twice than before.

ETA computation in urban areas with OSM data: what is the urban trigger?
Hi @IU0BMP ! I updated my settings slightly as they became a bit too extreme with the revised maps. They are available here: http://www.shlublu.org/tmp/car.xml This file does just contain the excerpt corresponding to my car, so it cannot be used as …

ETA computation in urban areas with OSM data: what is the urban trigger?
Hey, I finally end up with a nice setting that gives a proper average whatever the trip is. Of course, extremes are extremes, so if there's *nobody* or if it's crowded the ETA is wrong. But as an average it is fine. Anyway, regardless my s…

ETA computation in urban areas with OSM data: what is the urban trigger?
Oh thanks @Oldie ! I'm gonna give a try and report ! EDIT: I switched to the original settings and tried two trips: - The same as above, from Paris to Rennes: roughly 3h20, which is very optimistic - Paris from east to center (the one I tried b…

ETA computation in urban areas with OSM data: what is the urban trigger?
Hi Nigel, It's difficult to answer as my thoughts are only based on the result. Before the new map to be released, I was using another setting that was slower on non-urban area to statistically absorb the time lost in urban areas. It was workin…

ETA computation in urban areas with OSM data: what is the urban trigger?
I just tried a way/return from Paris to Creil, near Beauvais. ETA says 3:40 for the way, which sound a bit enormous (this is actually 45' once outside Paris, so 1'30 overall probably). It seems that the area considered urban covers non urb…

ETA computation in urban areas with OSM data: what is the urban trigger?
Hi @Nigel, I've just updated my maps. Looks like it works in Paris! I didn't yet do an actual journey but I computed a few directions. The given ETA are way more realistic than they use to be: 50 minutes to reach the center of Paris from t…

Oh, I didn't know that, I'll give a try while driving to see if it can be used safely. Thanks @tomas.

I would use such a feature.

ETA computation in urban areas with OSM data: what is the urban trigger?
Hi @Nigel, I have given a try on the latest release of the map, with Navigator 15 (PC) and on the Android app. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work. The displayed ETA corresponds to my non-urban settings. Was this integrated to the map releas…

PC Navigator Free 14 and 15 can't find shortest route over the border
Could this be a setting issue, preventing @krokodylowy's vehicule from taking minor roads?

NavFree Setup 14.2 Utility cannot apply application update
I could do the update but:- the setup utility is a 15- it installs the maps I download in another directory, I have to copy them manually- and the Navigator itself seems to be a 14, not a 15. I have only one PC_Navigator executable on my computer I&…

Thanks for having checked that Martin.My understanding is that Navigator has no way to access to the fields int_name, alt_name, and name: of POIs when using OSM data?

Just to give an example: in Bangkok, you don't retrieve the international airport by searching "Airport" or "Suvarnabhumi" or anything like that. You would have to type "ท่าอากาศยานสุวรรณภูมิ" to find it. http://ww…

ETA computation in urban areas with OSM data: what is the urban trigger?
Thanks for this @Nigel. So for example, if my vehicle setting is, for a given type of road, is 90Km/h non urban and 20Km/h urban, 20 Km/h will be applied to compute the ETA in urban areas even if this road is actually limited to 50Km/h in the city I…

ETA computation in urban areas with OSM data: what is the urban trigger?
Hello @Nigel Thanks for this detailed feedback and link.Yes, I think including France would be a good idea. I don't remember in which part of the MFN map of France is Paris, but we may want to limit the test to this one for the time being. Ther…

ETA computation in urban areas with OSM data: what is the urban trigger?
Bangkok has an admin level level 4 where Paris has an admin level 8. This is the only relevant difference I have seen, and it sounds unrelated. Otherwise, both have boundary=administrative and type=boundary set. Bangkok has capital=yes set, Paris do…

ETA computation in urban areas with OSM data: what is the urban trigger?
The legal speed limits are properly documented. What I'm wondering is what makes MFN determine that we are in a urban area (or street?) when navigating, and thus makes the urban settings of the vehicle to apply instead of the non urban. If you …

Route leads to highway exit of oncoming traffic!
All right, got it! Yes, it takes a few days for the online routing test app to take changes into account.Just retry by the middle of next week, it should be fine. Have a nice week-end!

Route leads to highway exit of oncoming traffic!
Hey, looking twice at the map, the proper way is on the right of the way suggested by the software. It's indeed a mapping issue as OSRM does the same routing: http://www.openstreetmap.org/directions?engine=osrm_car&route=48.61739,9.2492…

Route leads to highway exit of oncoming traffic!
The avoided section is flagged "one way", in the opposite direction as yours. http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/32602757 Should this be wrong (looks like it is), you just have to flag it "two ways" instead. This is easy to do, a g…

Regarding the duplicated streets I think they appear as many time as they are divided in segments in OSM. This would explain why each of the duplicates corresponds to only a subset of the house numbers of that street. I had an email exchange with @t…
