I've now got a 32GB 'Skoda' card and downloaded the V19 all Europe map (DiscoverMedia2_EU-AS_2210_V19). Still no village names. Unless anyone has any ideas I'm tempted to I think it's time and call it a day and put it down to 'progress'.

I've not had any problems using the sat nav to find places, like many people I use postcodes most of the time. The reason I wanted village names is just that we often use old fashioned road maps as well on long trips, and it is nice to be able to pinpoint where we are using the village names on the sat nav🙂

Warrior193 & Langers2k - It looks as if firmware is not the issue either. I will see if the 32GB card and the full europe map makes any difference - which I doubt😀

My Scout was first registered Sept 2015, and I've had it since it was a year old, never messed with the software, so there seems to be a good chance that the firmware is not the issue. I will get a 32MB update and see if that works (not hopeful) 😀

Thank you for bearing with me................. Tell - It is not an issue of screen size, as I have zoomed in and out using every 'click' on the knob on the unit and the village name never shows. Warrior193 - I have downloaded the all europe map, but as expected it is over 16GB, so will not fit on my existing card - I suppose it is worth £20 to pick up a v1832GB card and see if that helps - but I doubt it? Tell/Warrior193 - Are you running more up to date firmware than me - if you are not there is no point in my risking trying an upgrade in case I mess everything up?

I've loaded the updated version - as expected this has not solved the problem; I still cannot see village names. I am still trying to figure out why Warrior193 is able to see the 'Blidworth' village name on Ver. 5L00051236DH - ECE AS 2024, which I think is the all Europe map: Does that ECE AS 2024 map contain more information labelled in a different way to ECE 1 2024 (I would give it a try but I only have a 16GB SD card) - is it worth me trying that card?? Could it be that the MiB2 firmware I have in use is the problem, and an upgrade will sort the issue? Can most people see village names - is it just me with the problem?

I will have a look at tomtom for interest, however the real reason I wanted village names is for when we are going on long trips - so not much use if I have know where I am going and have to add the names a year in advance😀 However that does not explain why Warrior193 is able to see them on Ver. 5L00051236DH - ECE AS 2024, which I think is the all Europe map: Does that ECE AS 2024 map contain more detailed information than ECE 1 2024 (I would give it a try but I only have a 16GB SD card)? Does the MiB2 in use have a different firmware version? Thanks Steve

Thanks for your help The map version number looks different to what I have, which I assume is ECE 1 2024: I downloaded this from: And this is the mapping I am getting, as you can see, a name for Ravenshead, but no village names for the two villages on the right (Blidworth and Rainworth), the villages are not labelled at any level of zoom Is ECE AS 2024 something different?

I am still unsure if other people are having this issue, can people see Blidworth, Notts named on their maps - the village is there? Is there any benefit in updating the MiB2 firmware - I tend to leave things alone if there are no obvious issues?

It seems that there are two options: - Use updated maps, with new roads, and hopefully correct speed limits - but no village names, or - Use the old 2017 map with village names, but no new roads and wrong speed limits I'm going to give the first option a go - but it would be nice to know where I am 😉 What does everyone else do?

Thanks All I was really asking was - is there any way I can get my Amundsen satnav to display village names on the latest maps by some sort of software upgrade - knowing the way Skoda operate - I suspect the answer is no?

So does everyone now just live with SatNavs with no village names?

I've just loaded installed STD2_2110_EU1_202345 into my 2015 Octavia Scout - it seems to work OK, but many of the village names are still disappearing - is this a problem others are having, The last time I updated was in 2020, and I had the same problem to reverted to the 2017 maps which worked. Any help would be appreciated?

I had the issue of no village names on the map when I updated my Amundsen sat nav back in 2020, so reinstalled the 2017 version which worked. I downloaded the 2023 version today, and yet again no village names - has anything been done to fix this issue? Anyone know what the last version to work is?
