I downloaded the rapid files, extracted them with winrar and used nero 9 to burn them onto a Memorex DVD-DL at 2.4x speed. When I put the completed disc in my nav dvd player, the screen said No map data disc. please help

 

Sorry to hear that. Maybe the disc is bad or the disc burner? I did mine on a MacBook and so far 0 problems. Anyone you know with a Mac?

 

I suspect it is something to do with the format you wrote it in. I have just received a copy of a Jaguar nav disc and it came up with the same error. I copied the contents to my PC then used my own DVD software to create a new DVD and it works fine.

I can't tell you what the correct settings should be but I use Roxio Creator basic and it works with the default settings. If it makes you feel any better there are loads of threads on the net with people having the same problem

 

Thanks, I'll try Roxy and see what happens. I read a thread earlier where someone had success using Nero 9 so I that's why I used it first. I've got Roxy on my computer so I'll give it a try this weekend. DId you burn the disc as a DVD image file, ROM or data disc????

 

I used winrar to extract the files and burn aware to burn it to a disc, works great, and burn aware is a free program

I just selected Data then Data Disc, copied the files in to the window then clicked on Record. The only setup options I can see are:

Type - Track at once open
Mode - Mode 1
File System - ISO + Joliet

 

Burnt discs with Burnaware, Roxy and Nero 9. No success. Nav screen reads "Installed disc is not a MAP DVD". I must be doing something wrong. I downloaded all 17 .rar files and saved to my documents. I have WINRAR software on my computer. When I clicked on the firt file (part 01), Winrar extraced it along with all 17 parts for a total of 8,010,209KB. I then copy and pasted this file into the disc burning software, selected dvd data disc, selected the slowest burn speed 2.4x and clicked BURN. The disc is then created and verified. I put in the the car NAV DVD player and nothing. I've already gone thru 10 DVD DL discs using both memorex and virbatem brand disc. Any suggestions???? I've got like 5 blank disc left before I say screw it and buy the disc from Jaguar.

 

What actually gets extracted from the rar achive? If it is just one file e.g. a .ISO file then that is a backup image of a DVD rather than the individual files from the DVD so you would need to use a different option. In Roxio you would choose:

Copy > Burn Image

Browse to find the .iso file then click on the red burn image button.

If it isn't a .iso you may need other software that understands the format.

 

Thanks u102768. Roxy Basic worked fine when burned as an image disc. Up and running.

Thanks again!!!

 

No problem, glad to hear you were successful.

 

hi. i just finished downloading this, and just found out that the dvd disc space is only up to 4.7gb and the nav updated that i just downed requres 8gb at least.
can somebody help with this???

 

You need a dual layer disc and burner.

 

i burned to DVD, and tried to run it, wouldn't work. it keeps saying the disk installed is not a MAP DVD. just figured out that my nav. system is not alpine. it's actually from denso corporation. i have 04 xj vanden plas, but my dvd's 2002 version.

 

OK.. let me get this straight..
I extract all the .rar files to a DVD-DL disc.
I burn on the slowest speed, with a book setting to DVD-ROM.
I replace my old disc with this new version.
I allow the firmware to update. This may take up to 5 minutes.
My nav will continue to work.

I want to verify that I won't need to visit the dealership and have them do anything. Thanks.

 

at my rate of DL its taking me 20 minutes per file, IDK if its because I'm being cheap and downloading for free or my cable internet... But I have a question regarding the qoute beneath



How can we tell which NAVI we have ? I have an 04 XJ8 ... where can I tell ?

 

oh and someone should upload those files to a better server, one that doesnt throw so many hurdles in front of you to download. If I can ever make it to downloading all of them I think I might give it a shot...

 

Took me like 3 days to download

 

lol I think its going to take me more. between 2 minutes download waits and 15 minutes in between each one, 1 part is taking an hour each.

but thankfully its available

 

Will the down load and burn of DVD work on a Mac?

 

not to be rude, but the OP said about 3 or 4 times that he used a mac to do it.
