No news from Garmin and the same problem exist with the new beta 2.95

I don't understand CZ language and i am not very good in english, i am french canadian and i use this very good software. It is free and it is the better geocaching software. This is my opinion but i ca say i like it and use it since some month and i love it. I prefer this software than GSAK, it is my opinion. Free or paid software, i prefer this one to GSAK. Tank you to give this superb software to practice geocaching and don't discourage in the developpement. Tank you, Pierre

Yes you can do PQ for Waymarking. I do this with GEOGET and his plugin GEOJARRY. Very easy and free, this app. can replace GSAK. look here : http://forums.Groundspeak.com/GC/index.php?showtopic=265608 and here : http://translate.google.com/translate?client=tmpg&hl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fgeoget.ararat.cz%2Fdoku.php%2Fstart&langpair=cs|en

Samething for me. No waypoints and no caches from my micro sd card. Gpsmap 62s with fw 2.93 beta and same before the last fw update.

Today i had another message from Garmin : "There does seem to be a software problem with the device. Once we have word from our engineers we will look into it so it can be fixed. I noticed that I could scroll through the thumbnails but it did shut down later on." I hope the the software update will be coming soon.... Here is the answer : "Unfortunately we do not have a timeframe on how long it will take to update the firmware version. Now that we have identified an issue, our software engineers will need to come up with a fix for this issue. This may take a while to complete."

I had write to Garmin about the problem with more than 20 photos and they ask me to send my 21 photos to their support. In the answer they write this : The limit for geotagged photos on the 62s should be 2000. I am waiting for an answer soon.

Tank you for your help Steve, today i had retry many times and each time i add the 21 picture, the gps shut off. I don't understand but i will ask to Garmin Canada to see if it is a bug or a hardware default. My gpsmap 62s is under warranty, i will ask Garmin to give me an idea of the problem. For the hang/freeze i had the same problem of you. I just wait for the gps to charge all the thumbnails and it is correct. When i will have some news from Garmin i will give you their answer. (Sorry for my english, i am french Canadian) Tanks, Pierre

OK, after many and many tests i finally find the trouble with the geotagged pictures. If i load more than 20 pictures the gpsmap 62s shut off. I think it is a limit the same thing for the JNX files. It have a limit of 200 JNX files, one more and the gps shut off, this is confirm by Garmin for JNX. For the geotagged picture i suppose the limit is 20, if i load one more, the gps shut off (not confirm by Garmin). If someone have more details about this let say me please. Tank you.

Now i had remove all the EXIF of each picture and set manually the geotag infos and the problem is there again. I don't understand the trouble. I have 28 pictures, 320X240, no EXIF (only the coordinates). I don't know what i can try more.

Tank you janandsteve for the config of your geocaching profile. It is very helpfull for me. Just 1 thing, the link in your message don't work, can you update this link ? Your experience is much better than the Garmin manual....

I have convert all my pictures 320X240, check the problematic ones and try many conversion but the trouble is always present. The problem don't comes from specific pictures because i delete all pictures on the sd card and use only the 2 or 3 pictures i was thinking they are not good, all work correctly. When i add more pictures the unit switch off on somes pictures but never the sames.( the total pictures i have now is 28 ) I had retrograde to firmware 2.80 on my gpsmap 62s with the same trouble. Finally i reload the 2.92 beta firmware and the trouble is always present. None of my own pictures look to do the switch off. I am using Gpicsync me to to add geotag info and the localisation of the pictures is correct. No problem in Basecampé I don't know where the problem come, it is the same problem when i download the pictures directly from Garmin pictures. Maybe it is a firmware default and Garmin will correct this in a new upgrade. As soon as possible i will add pictures one by one to see if it is only an exact number causing this trouble. I will try to erase all the EXIF from thoses pictures and keep only Geotag info to see if it is this. Tank you for your help

Hi, i had a problem with somes geotag pictures. When i select somes pictures, the gps goes off. I don't know the reason, somes pictures are from Panoramio and somes comes directly from Garmin Connect Pictures. I am using gpsmap 62s fw 2.92. Can you help me ? Tank you, Pierre

Ok tank you, i had read many information about this, if i understand well, i can read one or the other to interpret the pressure change and the atmospheric change to became.

Someone know the difference between Barometric and Atmospheric pressure ? I have theses two options on my gpsmap 62S.

Hi, i have 200 BirdsEye tiles on my 16 Gb SD card. If i add 1 more, my gpsmap 62s turn off. Is it have a 200 limits for BirdsEye tiles ?
