Hello, Attached is a patch to the latest CVS that adds read support for the VP logs (.vpl files) produced by factory-installed Honda/Acura Navigation Systems. (Manufactured by Alpine) I know it works with 2006 Honda Civics, and it likely works with newer Civics and TL's as well. In theory it might work with the nav systems in other models going back as far as 2004, based on some indirect documentation I've seen via Google. It might also work on non-Civic/TL models, provided their nav systems are sourced by Honda from Alpine. (I'm guessing it won't work on non-Honda/Acura cars, but who knows) The attached patch includes a reference file that I've santized somewhat. I've not entirely decoded all the sentences in the logs, and I'm guessing some of them might contain identifying information about the car from which they were taken. As such, I've stripped out all extraneous sentences, leaving only the '75's. (Which are all the format parses anyway) Been a long while since I programmed in C (and never with any mastery), so please feel free to suggest improvements/changes. Thanks, Chris |
