Try it. You need to do the long reboot after. You find your 32771 code listed in the tables here: https://github.com/Mr-MIBonk/M.I.B._More-Incredible-Bash/discussions/69 If that doesn't work I'd look at those tables for 32771 and find one with the same option but Inrix / ITIS. You can look inside the file as pcbbc suggested to me. Thats where the Mr Bonk people get the logic and codes from. Had a look at the posted tables seems only suggested model answer... 32782 Mib2\NavDB\mapStyles_eu\0\default\x\navigation_styles_XX_EU.iso and look in folder Ti for file paytmc.json The actual logic is that. Not at home you may find something different but the Mr Bonk posts look like 32782 although that's listed against China 🤔.

Well there you are. I was going to have a look at the mib2 standard that we have and go searching for tmc in 5f although I thought the great and the good on the Amundsen mib2 would have done that. So from your post mib1 standard is kitted out on the map side for that change. May not be the case for the mib2 standard which is why old maps and the convoluted approach since the Inrix provider is said not to be in those maps after TomTom took the cartography over. It was easy enough for me to test out the 14 setting on my mib2 high when pcbbc and I were on the same page. Credit pcbbc to that I flagged my factory set mib2 high was on 15. The chestnut we'd had with retrofitters getting it wrong.

Nifty if it did since it would have to have the radio station names against the ids. Feels like wishful thinking to me. It could say found two but don't reckon it would index out the station name. Hearsay evidence.

Technical note on mib2 high for people that trip into here the tables in this post below cover why other posts elsewhere on the net don't get it to work historically on UK Traffic Master (doesn't work now in anycase) - they were trying the wrong codes. Mr Bonk et all are the enthuast source of all things mib2 high. It covers all TMC codes across the world. For the UK the mib2 high ones are the ones posted above for the alternative service still transmitting. https://github.com/Mr-MIBonk/M.I.B._More-Incredible-Bash/discussions/69

If its a Columbus mib2 / 2.5 it's the above following pcbbc research. You'll know what to put in the tmc field by what's already in it. Then you take one of the two routes. Namely you make the change: 32783 is online traffic permitted + Trafficmaster RDS TMC 32782 is online traffic permitted + ITIS/INRIX RDS TMC 15 is no online traffic, Trafficmaster RDS TMC 14 is no online traffic, ITIS/INRIX RDS TMC (It's so easy with Obdeleven Pro / VCDS coding tool) If its an Amundsen mib2 wait for those instructions to appear on here.

TMC traffic events no longer being received...firmware update required?
I believe you just do the pcbbc one if your unit is a Columbus 2.5 and don't want to take out a subscription. Namely you make the change: 32783 is online traffic permitted + Trafficmaster RDS TMC 32782 is online traffic permitted + ITIS/INRIX RDS TMC 15 is no online traffic, Trafficmaster RDS TMC 14 is no online traffic, ITIS/INRIX RDS TMC 2.5 Columbus will be like the TT 32782 to get it working again. The latter line above is for Columbus Mib 2.0. Ie. Mib2 only You just search for tmc in your Adaptions in the 5f unit least in Obdeleven and see what it's set at. VCDS Will be the same. Will currently be 15 or 32783. Do the change and reboot the unit. Simple.

The latter which it is. The service collapsed which was being offered across brands. The new pricing model for mib3 is to sell connect services through 4g, the Traffic data on an annual subscription whilst the old model was to cross subsidise it via car sales. I was trying to determine whether mib3 also allowed tmc as well. If it does and dependent on whether the infotainment unit can be accessed via coding then the pcbbc solution may exit for that. It could be that, that has collapsed. Step forward mib3 users as to whether there online data has stopped as well.

Don't reckon German VAG will be helping out little old Britain get their TMC back.... forgot Global Britain 🤔. Third world countries that arent so third world probably still have their TMC. As Dean0 pointed out on the Seat board TMC was an EU directive for countries to provide in the EU that one probably got burnt in Moggies bonfire. You are onto self help now as I said. VAG won't touch it now since it's one of those things they let go with legacy systems. User POI import on the VW side soon bit the dust when Mib3 came out. Skoda one never worked correctly. You got poinspect0r and other DIY solutions when VAG pulled the plug on that one.

Think it's self-help on the technology for a solution other than that it's hitting your head on a brick wall. They have made their decision and won't change it now.

TMC traffic events no longer being received...firmware update required?
Good stuff. As you say you lose Hungary and Finland but other than that all will be good. Interesting file. That's how the fly by night retrofitters get it wrong when they set the unit up for the wrong TMC group. Happened to Seat in the past when I was asked to check what my factory fitted one was set at for someone installing a retrofit mib2 high after retrofitters had done the navigation FeCs but had sent the unit back with TMC not configured. From a working unit with old maps with TMC to new maps but no TMC. I was putting off looking at it again. I wonder what the relative difference are of the two providers, the defunct one and the non defunct one. The defunct one wasn't very timely. Roads into Fishguard port remained closed for about two months which wasn't true on that one. There is a bit at launch: https://citywire.com/funds-insider/news/itis-trafficmasters-smaller-rival-comes-to-market/a212878 or https://www.telecompaper.com/news/itis-disputes-results-of-trafficmaster-accuracy-survey--433666 Depends whether they are buying into traffic data which there seems to be a market in these days. Their fleet of sensor vehicles seemed to be large.

Probably like water, the Government lets the infrastructure go to pot. Nanny state can't be rules based etc. Ofcom spent a time preoccupied with selling off C4, political mission rather than good Government of society. Porn is the latest Ofcom mission but Mps like end to end encryption of their own messages, out of public statuary records but don't known about VPNs. Civil servants pander to their missions. Evident TMC wasn't one. 🤔

I reckon you could run with a two card set up (if you have two cards), where you can make the choice on the day by slipping in the map you want to use. Bigade1 to confirm. The software mod must craft the unit to use the alternative TMC with the old maps but would happily just run in navigation only without TMC with the latest TomTom maps. Thus if you were on a long run with traffic you would use the old maps but it would not take advantage of new roads or if you were on a cross country trip without traffic you'd use the new maps. You'd make the choice yourself on the day. Least how I think it would work. We only use the car with the mib2 standard as a run around in Wales but if heading to England (or Cardiff) you'd slip the one with TMC capability in it so you'd get the motorway delays. The user saved destinations / last destinations and user POIs are stored within the unit so switching maps is just changing the map cartography not user saved data on those. I'm going to wait the outcome of @bigade1 research on the best way of doing it on the mid2 standard (Amundsen) if he can find away of avoiding the mib2 standard toolkit / toolbox.

Leave it long enough Mr Fixit will be posting YouTube videos to earn money of it 🤣. You just got to accept users that can't sort it out themselves falls into the tough category, VAG decided they didn't want to fund a TMC provider anymore the same as they pull the plug on other services once they stop making that model. So they wont be telling dealerships to do it. Personally I dont think they will tinker with their map processes to remove the feature in case they disturb anything else. It will remain an egg for those that are technically capable or enlist the services of a third party which won't be a VAG dealership. Two years will pass with map updates and long live TMC there after, but could short 🤔. We are on legacy systems now the same as mib1 when mib2 was in its prime.

TMC traffic events no longer being received...firmware update required?
Yes technically you have to raise to the occasion although VAG will probably only be updating the maps till 2025 (5 year period they add to end of production, could be 2024). The window to pull the plug is limited although they will be pulling the plug on map updates soon. So legacy maps with traffic reports till the other provider pulls the plug.
-
TMC traffic events no longer being received...firmware update required?
Umm the tricky bit for VAG is they arent paying for the other service. The DIY solution is to turn the knob to the other channel yourself via a software switch. You wont officially get that from VAG since they wont want to pay to be a member of the service. You could sweet talk a member of staff in a garage I expect to do the mib2 high. This is where user coding comes into its own.

Traffic Master went off air in Aoril. Like Radio Luxembourg of old you can listen to another station 🤔. Mib2 high solution above. @bigade1has the mib2 standard solution. We need that documented. Bigade1 is the top one. Pcbbc is the bottom one of the two fixes.
-
TMC traffic events no longer being received...firmware update required?
Mib2 high which is called the Columbus in Skoda name is easy enough. Just that coding change to bump it onto the other UK TMC provider as @pcbbcworked out from looking at the map file code. See above. Need to do the coding, cost about £130 if you have not got Obdeleven already, pass on VCDS costs or find someone to do it. The mib2 standard is more techi one suspects. In both instances a good retrofitter would be able to do it once they know what they need to do. Mib2 high would be a dodle to them.
-
TMC traffic events no longer being received...firmware update required?
@bigade1Do you want to give a blow by blow account of what to do on a mib2 standard. I guess if you have two map cards you could swap between the old and new maps as it took your fancy once the software surgery was done on the unit. It was not tie it into the maps that was done just tinkering the TMC side in the unit. That would be a good solution for the best of both worlds.
-
TMC traffic events no longer being received...firmware update required?
@pcbbcWell done that is indeed the solution on a mib2 hìgh. Reboot of the infotainment unit.... The long hold on the on / off. No cross in TMC... looking good. Route into Essex. I thought a DIY solution was going to be the answer 😉. Not sure which services it will pick up abroad now mind you. For others it was done with the Obdeleven with the Pro license. Works with a dongle white on an Android or the Next Gen black one Android or iPhone with the Pro licenses. People will be able to do this with VCDS. You have to feed that field in the 5f module, reboot the unit and Bobs your Uncle.

It's going to be 14 then I'll test later. Seats never got online traffic on the mib2 high.

There is a fix but old maps and technical where with all. Above. May be more info is required.
