Re: [mkgmap-dev] Recent Garmin Firmware "cannot authenticate maps" when they are unicode

Hi,

my understanding is that this is not a bug, but a limitation implemented by Garmin.

This is true. Garmin maps can be digitally signed. Many new GPS require, that Unicode map include signature. Signature is a protection against tampering, which is reasonable for commercial maps, but it exclude support for 3-rd party maps. -- Best regards, Andrzej
