Tomas, the problem is about getting the data in the first place. This can be within a minute, 5 minutes or later. Can you also confirm that the comments I made relating to the MobilityService process is correct and, if so, will it be fixed in a fu…

Another comment I would like to make in the hope that someone can either verify this or not. I have set Bluetooth to "Use vehicle sound system over bluetooth" and after a while my iplayer radio app suddenly plays when a notification is g…

I mean that HD Traffic will sometimes update and at other times not or either very late, if that makes sense. Can you also advise on the processes left running after Navigator is closed. EDIT: I think I have found it. The running service relates t…

I can confirm the issues reported for build 3.0.68 regarding the strange and eratic behavious when static. I can also confirm problems with HD Traffic not updating consistently. I notice from the release notes on build 3.0.69 that Lubos released, …

Thanks for the roadworks screenshot, Tomas. I'll double check on my next trip. I certainly didn't see that on my last. May I suggest that the navigation map could look a lot more pleasing if the route and traffic overlay was the same w…

Tomas, can you explain what I should see when on route regarding HD traffic and roadworks. On other systems, an icon is shown then the road turns a different colour. I don't see this on Navigator. I can't give an example as it occurs w…

I notice when travelling that the app doesn't indicate any roadworks etc on the navigation map. Is this correct and if so, when can we expect full integration of HD Traffic?

Tomas, I know this. What I was asking is if this would be possible in the future as it would be a good feature, given some of your competitors already do this.

That's probably what is happening with the no sound output, chattiewoman. Thanks for the information. Still don't know why some of the instructions are not transmitting correctly (connection made, no sound, then part of the instruction).…

Hi Lubos and Tomas, see these screenshots in HW render. The icons are just too large. Perhaps making them scaleable is the answer as hvdwolf suggests. I was also testing out the various Bluetooth options today and must say that the results were s…

2 releases in 1 day. Now on 3.0.61. Any chance of a changelog so that we can test.

Just checked the latest build 3.0.60 and can confirm that Roadworks are now shown correctly. The database is also updated a lot more quickly than before. The only thing to be tweaked now is the size of the icons. Well done, guys. What else has c…

Many thanks, hvdwolf, for confirming my findings. Perhaps Tomas will now comment on this.

Can anyone who has access to HD traffic confirm if roadworks (not traffic queues or closed roads) are displayed on the map as I appear to be the only one testing this functionality. Thanks.

Really, can't you state whether road works are supposed to be shown or not? I guarantee they are not - only those designated as closed and traffic queues are shown. Try Gloucester, UK which has a number of roadworks but only closed(?) roads …

I can click on roadwork links and show on map but they don't show as I posted previously. I don't have a problem with closed roads or slow traffic, just the fact that the roadworks are not displayed even though they are on the list. This…

Tomas, sorry to keep asking but as HD Traffic is yet another premium, I need to fully understand and compare it with your competitors. At present, only road closures and traffic queues are displayed on the map as far as I can see. There are no roa…

Look at the photos posted, Tomas. The only ones displayed are closed roads and not roadworks.

It can take up to 3 or 4 minutes for all traffic reports to populate with traffic queues being relatively quick but all others taking this time (see photos). You have not responded to my question regarding road works. Why are these not displayed o…

I was hoping for a response as to why HD Traffic takes so long to populate (don't have that with a competitor's product) and why road works are not displayed on the map. Does the app take into account delays when calculating the route and…

Sorry, I didn't get back regarding problems with HD Traffic. It is very slow in connecting and the majority of road work reports listed in the traffic report are not shown on the map. Furthermore, the colour choices for indicating congestion …

Another couple of observations on the HD Traffic option: 1. Can take some time to connect to the server so always worth checking in tools/hd traffic before creating a route. 2. Had a couple of lock ups when accessing the traffic reports. Screen …

I got temporary permission to test HD Traffic and just want to make a couple of observations: 1. Traffic Icons are large and blocky. They don't change size regardless of zoom level. 3. I checked traffic queues on the map and then deliberate…

What you need is the Digger console to convert your files. A quick search on the forums will give you all the information.
