Re: Nav DVD ver.8.1 gen5
I found the non hybrid 8.1 iso image, and burned it directly with Toast on my Mac, and it worked fine.
I then tried burning a DVD with Toast with the 5.1 "LOADING.KWI" file, and it wouldn't work in the nav system (it didn't recognize it as a valid DVD).
I ended up examining the iso image of the non hybrid dvd with ImgBurn under Windows XP (running as a virtual machine in VMWare Fusion), and noted what kind of filesystem it used. It was ISO9660 + Joliet + UDF, UDF revision 1.02.
So I then tried writing files (swapping out the firmware file for the 5.1 version) to a DVD using ImgBurn and under the Options tab, I chose the options mentioned above. This resulted in a successful burn that was recognized by the Nav system on my Camry.
I ended up using ImgBurn because I didn't know how to be sure what settings Toast was using on the Mac.
Maybe this will help those of you struggling with getting this to work.
Good luck!

Re: Nav DVD ver.8.1 gen5
I used the "Write files/folders to disk" option in ImgBurn (this may also be called "Build"). I wasn't starting with an image (like you appear to be). I had all the files and folders of the disk image that I originally downloaded (extracted to my HDD), and I replaced the "Loading.kwi" file with the older one that still allows the override function.
When you use the above method, there is a pane on the right with several tabs. The third tab is called "Options".
I noticed in your screenshots, it doesn't say ISO9660, Joliet, UDF...(Joliet is missing). I don't know if that is the problem or not...
Hope that helps...

Ok fine but when I click to start the build then it ask for the labels, I do not what to write and always say that I an am overpassing the capacity, for ISO then switch to UDF, something is wrong probably I do not know how to resolve this problem. You may help?Please

You only need to pull the fuse when you need to DOWNGRADE the firmware that was loaded onto your Nav system. So if your Nav system has ever been loaded with a 6.1 or 7.1 or 8.1 Nav DVD, pulling the fuse will force the Nav system to load whatever firmware is on the DVD in the drive at the time of the fuse pull.

Ok so since I already have an older modified version then I don't need to do that. So it will just read the updated maps then. Thanks...it's been a long day.
