I just downloaded and burned the disc. It didn't initially work on my AVIC-9DVD either, however, I went into Test Mode and discovered the reason why. The Application Program for my AVIC-9DVD is missing from the disc (EU010APT.PRG file). The AVIC-9DVD has a cool feature in that it can read missing files from the PC Card slot, so I copied the missing PRG, the matching HTM file (probably not necessary), and DVI.DAT to the PC Card and now the DVD will boot up.

 

The PRG file is definitely missing for the AVIC-D1/D2 also, and I suspect it won't work on AVIC-N1, N2, and N3 either.

 

The only PRG that's present is EU070APL.PRG. As far as I know, here is a list of PRG files and which device uses it:

 

EU010APT.PRG - AVIC-9DVD, 8DVD, 80DVD, 88DVD.

EU040APL.PRG - AVIC-N1, N2, N3??? This one I'm not too sure about.

EU050APL.PRG - AVIC-D1, D2

EU070APL.PRG - AVIC D3, N4, N5

 

In theory, you should be able to copy the appropriate PRG and DVI.DAT from whatever disc you got the PRG file to the disc and it should boot and work. DVI.DAT contains info on the disc and program versions. You must use the DVI.DAT from your old disc because the DVI.DAT on the new disc won't work. I would also copy the matching EU0x0APL.HTM file just in case... the boot process may do file checking, who knows. You definitely won't see any program updates this way, but at least the map will be newer. In fact, on mine it didn't even change the boot screen.

Does anyone want to seed the west disk with the fixed PRG files(I would but I only have about 70 mb/s up)? Or should we just wait for the official pioneer disks to come out?

Im currently downloading and uploading (sharing)

running about 64kb both ways.

Currently there are 7 leachers and 4 seeders

Thanks to all who are seeding

i have been looking for the CNDV 80MT torrent and I cant find it anywhere Can someone please tell me where i can find it or give me the link.

Thank you for any help anyone can provide!

I will be converting the image to dmg format for mac users it will still have password protection. You cannot oprn a UIF password protected file in osx.

Magic iso is a windows program and everything i found only converts it it doesnt allow you to enter a password.

I think you missed the point of my post, if you have anything other than the D3, N4 or N5 the downloaded disk will not work for you. You have to get files from an older disk and switch them to the new iso for it to work.....or we could seed the disk with the files already put in the iso so nobody has this problem.

just got the email from pioneer, the discs are availible for purchase on their website.

ok, finished with download. when i go to winrar, what do i do next? i really don't want to mess up and have to start all over.

the folder is lested as Y42TOI0Q. is that right?

is there anyone out there that i can call and they can walk me through this. when it comes to this type of stuff. i'm lost. ANYBOBY, just PM me. thanks

so it seems this disk will not work with the N3 correct? which files would i have to add to it before i burn it (and what would be the best way to do that).

also since it is only a map update does it have the old POI or no POI and you system will use the old ones?

i ask this because i have the 60 series disk right now, should i upgrade to the 70's series then the 80's series or just upgrade strait from the 60's to the 80's series disks?

Uh, why exactly did someone pass-word encoded the magiciso file? What's the pass? Thanks in advance.

Password is "avic". I wondered the same thing.

Thanks. Are people burning with with a DVD-R or Dual Layer DVD? It keeps telling me that 4.7gigs is too small of a disc when the .UIF is only 3.4 gigs...do you really need a DL DVD?

the uif is a compressed format... you'll need a DL dvd.

I bought a pack of 10 memorex dvd+R DL at target for like 12 bucks.

Just west and only for Avic-D3, N4 & N5

Oh, thank god I didn't load this after burning it and went back and re-read the thread. I'm in Georgia so I need East . I'll continue seeding, but why did the customer only get the WEST dvd?

Yes I also live in Florida and am frustrated about not being able to get the CNDV-80MT East DVD for free.

i am disgusted at Pioneer for charging such an extravagant sum as $150. Heck even up to $30 USD would have been reasonable but more than that is just price gouging.

Soon (within 30 days I predict) you will see the counterfeit CNDV-80MT DVDs go up for sale on eBay for like $15 each and Pioneer will lose millions in revenue due to their greed. They will have high-balled themselves right out of the market.

The audacity of them to charge so much for an "upgrade" they should ethically provide for free is a new low even in these degenerate times.

May a thousand fleas infest their beds.

Something tells me the DVD's will be up on torrent, before someone starts selling them for 15$ on ebay.

Someone bought the discs and made a torrent for the West Coast disc. We have people on this board who have purchased the disc pair..... so why is there still no East Coast disc torrent?!?

Whats the going rate for an updated Nav DVD that brings you to the point of thinking $150 is asking too much? Really am wondering.

Firmware updates should be absolutely free. If there's errors in the operation of my unit, it should be fixed for free regardless of age. The same way vehicle recalls are free.

Map updates are bound to cost money. They've put in extra work to update the map database. That's got to be worth something. $150 is pretty friggin stiff though. I can almost get a new Garmin handheld with 08 maps for that price. 50 bucks is reasonable.

Looked around alittle most upgrades are around $200.

Looked around alittle most upgrades are around $200.

I take it the reaon why most upgrades cost around $200 is because I think they add more than just a map update. Maybe new features and what not but I think these 2008 discs are just maps thats why they so cheap. I was told that next year there will be a big upgrade for 2009. That's what Pioneer told me
