GPS tuner 5.2b zooming problems

[dgh]

Hi im am using gpstuner and love it. i have 1 problem though.

when i use googe sat images and zoom in no new and more detailed picture is loaded with hspda. just the default zoom level is loaded and presented on screen but it gets to blurry when zoomed in .

Does anyone have a clue ????:confused:

Try to zoom in more before trying to download new sat maps..(when select another type of map)..then switch to sattelite map and it will download a detailed map

Unfortunately that does not work. When i zoom to 4.6 metres in blanco map and then switch to google sat my hsdpa turns on. As soon as the picture pops up it says 76.x metres. Whatever i do it wont go lower than 76.x metres. :(:(

Anyone :):confused::rolleyes:

Does it work with any of the other map options? I've not tried using the downloaded maps option in GPS Tuner yet, I'll give it a go and see if I get the same results you get.

EDIT: I tried the google sat image on mine, and when I zoomed in to 38 feet elev. it downloaded a new map and set me back up to 150 feet. I was then able to zoom in again, but the image didn't refresh so it was a bit blurry but still fine for me.

Yup thats what i mean. I supose its a bug or flaw in gpstuner. If someone manages to get a detailed map behond 150 feet or 87 m i like to know how :)

maybe is a google's limitation to not google-sw

[dgh]

Yup that could be.

But the pictures are there to download. if u can download 75m pictures you can also download 5m pictures. THe data is available on the net i supose. GPSTuner just does not send a reload trigger when zooming by the looks of it.

But again you could be right that google forbids the use of the higher zoom data to promote their own navigation products. I like to know if its a bug or a copy rights thing though :-)

...Now that i'm thinking... TrackyPRO allow an accurate zooming, or i am wrong?

[dgh]

I never used that program ..... is it any good ?

[dgh]

Yup i downloaded the latest trail of trackypro and it works perfectly with zooming (AND its stores the downloaded maps and the storage card). Must be a fbug in gpstuner :D .

By the looks of it i think i buy trackypro and quit on GPS tuner. :)

Yes but GPSTuner is the best ;D
