New group for MyRoute-app users on DMD2 systems
-
Same problem at my side. Mra start up but then message: this is taking longer than expected! And that is it. Other nav apps work like google maps. Reported problem at dmd2 but get answer that it is a mra problem also because other nav app works.

Thanks @infohagentb.nl - this is exactly the issue I have.
-
...hmmm understood - but...
Unfortunatelly I only remember slightly about this function. There is a option in the GPS-Settings of DMD2 app, which asks for.
Long time ago, I have switched this option "off" because if I'm just using the DMD2 app (so, I'm inside the app) it seems pointless to me, to open then another app. If this would be my intention, I could open the other app directly upfront... -
Thanks @infohagentb.nl - this is exactly the issue I have.
Hmmm..., can't confirm this issue.
I tried it several times, and it worked flawlessly. Are you sure you selected a routable destination?

I‘ll give it a try and keep you informed!

@Martin-Wilcke ...thank you Martin, by the help with your Screenshots, now I remember by which action the question about "external app" occurs.
And yes - after I have switched on this question in the settings - I can confirm: routing by external app (in this case MyRoute-App) works correct as expected.But I stand by my opinion: searching for a destination in the app – only to then be navigated by another app – is strange in my view. I might as well use the other app for searching and navigation.
Nothing is impossible ;-)
In past: GARMIN Zumo 210->GARMIN Zumo 395->GARMIN XT=> now: DMD T865-X + MyRoute-App, LocusMaps, OsmAnd.
In past: GARMIN MapSource ->GARMIN BaseCamp->Tyre->Kurviger->Calimoto=> now: MRA-Routplanner. -

DMD2 does not support using traffic data for calculation/navigation, whereas MRA does (under certain conditions).
Therefore, I use this feature when I have the following use case:
- I navigate a track with DMD2
- I would like to “shorten” a part for some reason by travelling as quickly as possible (also using traffic data)
- I select a destination point on my track and transfer this location to MRA using the method explained here
- This initiates an A-B routing in MRA, calculating the fastest route, and taking traffic data into account
- Once I have reached my destination point, I switch back to DMD2 to continue navigating my track

@Martin-Wilcke ahhh got it - and I learned something new again
But I have never used such a possibility, because where I'm usually riding - there is no traffic

I completely agree - trees don't move
But it's always good to have a few tools and solutions at hand, just in case...@Martin-Wilcke

@Martin-Wilcke just tried your example starting the route via external app (MRA) and it didn‘t work. Got the same error message like @infohagentb.nl mentioned. This seems only to be valid for MRA.
