seems to be also possible within Germany: register at POIBASE, get the coupon from Pioneer, and off you go!

check this instructions (unfortunately in german)

Hi specialists,

I'm a newbie with my AVIC F920BT: great device, great features! Especially the drive log (all your tracks logged on the micro-SD card) was one reason to go for a pioneer naviceiver.

Looking at the tracks recorded onto the SD card, these *.LTB files appear to be in an encrypted format only the "navgate feeds" software can decode. Tracks will show up perfectly fine within Navgate feeds, but there seems to be no export to a e.g. GPX format, so you could use these files for geotagging of photos, or do upload tracks into Garmins MapSource/RoadTrip/BaseCamp or embed them into your own website.

I guess the unit will not only record len/lat but also elevation data, which would be perfectly displayed within e.g. Garmin MapSource, but so far I wasn't able to get hold of the drive logs in a readable format!

Looks like when "navgate feeds" starts to show tracks with google maps, the software will first send the logs to its own server (avicfeeds.com), and afterwards call the google api for showing the map. Within this second call (to google maps) you will see two coordinates: your start- and your endpoint, but no points in between - therefor I guess that there is a communication between avicfeeds.com and google to build up the map with the drive log.

Any idea how we can convert drive logs into a readable format (preferred: gpx)?

Thanks,

Stefan
