NavTeq DVD backup. So far no problems. - Click HERE for Original Thread

I have the NavTeq V4.62 DVD. I used DVDDecrypter (ISO Mode) to make an ISO of the whole disk. I then used Nero V8 to burn it onto a DVD +R DL. Put in the the MDX and it has been working for the last 2 days.

I was using Nero V6, but had lots of issues, got V8 and no problems. Also I did not change the booktype, I just used the defaults to burn ISO.

Next is to change the startup screen and then get rid of the OK, I hate that...

Hope this helps.

This is interesting news....

Sure would be good to know if we could do this for the Canadian maps for those of us who imported a car from the US. Anyone interested in "making a backup"?

OK, just to make sure I burned another copy. I pulled out the disk, the Nav gave me an error, put in the new disk, waited and it booted up just fine. I asked for a route to a restaurant in a city about 60 miles away and it gave me one. So it appears to work just fine.

I see a lot of posts were people are having problems. I don't understand unless the new drive units are able to read both PTP and OTP versions. Or do I have to reset the unit once you put in a new disk?

TIA

What did you name the disc? Or did you leave that blank? What speed did you burn at?

When making an ISO, DVDDecrypter keeps the original name. I used 2.4x DVD's.

I successfully created a backup for my 4.55A disc. I used the DVDDecrypter and Nero 7 on Memorex DL 2.4x.

I also was able to change the startup screen using this thread http://www.acuramdx.org/forums/show...?threadid=31890

Anyone know how often they come out with new versions? Here in Utah looks like they are a few years behind.

I have been running the backup with no issues at all, so looks like they are copyable. Nice to know. Now I wish I could backup my DVD-A's...
