Following my earlier thread I treated myself to a new din unit but it came with Sygic satnav (like TomTom) and in all honesty it was not for me, plus there was a bug with the speedcams.

The new din is 800 x 480 so my old Igo8 and Primo would not load. (They advertise this as HD, but that's a bit far fetched, quality is good though.)

For the last week I tasked myself to find the latest Igo software and maps trawling the net and GPS/Satnav sites and finally yes I found them, so now I have the latest Primo,Euro maps and speedcams (all obtained via the tintergooglenet ;) ).

Tony_Fry would be proud of me :D:D:D

I've taken these this morning a sample of some of the screens, the look will be familiar to all the Igo users. Sadly no 3D images here but I don't have to drive far to be in the country so will capture some as soon as.

Here goes:

That seems to be the same Primo we have on our DD units.

It probably is, I was running Igo8 430 x272 but now Primo 1.2 V9 800x480 with August 2011 maps and speedcams as of yesterday :D

What is the lock at the top? Mine is also the same just no lock.
But it does dispaly out of memory windows at times. Very annoying, but the software is better than Tom-Tom and Garmin.:)

In all honesty that little lock is the annoying bit, this system operates picture in picture so you can have the satnav as the main screen and radio or Bluetooth or dvd etc. in a smaller window on the same screen. When that feature turned off it locks the screen and you get that daft padlock. :shrug:

My only complaint so far.

Do you have the newer system, ie the one with the RCA plugs on the back of the unit ? as apposed to the cable type RCA cables ?

OOps sorry remember now, it will be interesting to see if it has more internal memory than the early DD. Enjoy playing with all the settings-and the MPG & L/100Km conversion function.

I have the same Xtron can you input just post codes as TomTom or do you have to put in the full address. I have looked at the link you posted and cannot find the Xtron.

thanks Rob

It's the Xtrons D711G released August 2011.

I worked fine for a few days now have another problem. Sat Nav defaulted to Chinese.:shrug: I reset the unit and with Trebors help reloaded the soft wear only to find I'm in Paris even though UK region set.:confused: Unit wont navigate at all now shows unit searching for satellites. I change the SD card and now I'm in London and only the demo works.:confused: When driving along the map stay as when loaded and speed is zero. Any ideas other than sending it back?:mad: I intend to contact Xtron forum for help and will try another reset in the morning.

The other items ipod.TV.Bluetooth all appear fine,
