How to copy your Nav DVD.....
 

Ok.... this is meant for backup only :yelrotflm but this being my first post here as a new owner I thought I would help you guys out.... hopefully this is not a repost and I dont get flamed. I search a little bit online for a link to get a hold of an updated DVD for my 04. Unfortunatly I havent found anything, then I found this.... http://club.cdfreaks.com/showthread.php?t=137886
Once again if this is a repost dont flame me I am new. But if someone has a new dvd and is willing to post it.... let me know cause i really need one.

^+1 to that. I've been hoping someone figures this out since ppl first started talking about it a while back.

1. I know that the 2004 and 2005 Nav systems are different from the 2006 nav systems.
2. The DVD's are not regular dvd's they are DVD-RAM disc, but most quality burners will burn in this format.
3. The Player is made by pioneer but the software is made by Navteq.

I have been meaning to try and backup my 2004 disc but have been lazy. I think i'll try to work on it this week. If i can copy that then hopefully i can make a backup of a more recent disc. It sucks that my brothers house is not on the disc.

I have an 04 and I cant find my own house! That sux. I am looking for an updated dvd. Oh and by the way you dont need RAM discs just DL or duel layer discs.

i would like to know too!
i heard you cant make a copy the nav. disc! but if there is a way!!
let me kno!

Did you look at the link... it is posible using a form of ISO copy. Basicly no matter what the format is, it takes a copy of the DVD and replicates it. I have done it already it works fine. I just happen to have the oldest map DVD known to man kind.

As do I. We seem to be in the same boat.

Type in LA and I bet it suggests Route 66.

I know that the 2002 is slightly larger in ISO format than a DVD-R, so it probably does have to be DVD-RAM. I got a ISO from a friend here, and Nero says it's too big...

Requires a Double Layer disc to fit.
