Before I got the Infotainment system I used CoPilot also, didn't like their inability to transfer maps across systems either.
I've tried myrouteapp.com. It has it's own limitations. First, it doesn't support a direct export to .trp. You have to export a .kml file and then convert it. The end results are not really desirable either. When you load the map into CoPilot you get a gazillion waypoints that make up the route. I've seen no way to control this. You can control this in the options/web-apps that I posted in my original post.

When I export as GPX then convert to trp I get the same waypoints I originally set...

Doesn't work that way for me. I get a gazillion waypoints in the .gpx file. Same as with the .kml file.

Weird.

Edit: See what you see with this one. Simple 5 waypoint loop made on mapmyroute.com, and saved as GPX 1.1 file.

This is what it should look like:




This is what it looks like when uploaded to the converter:




And after conversion:




And here's the completed .trp file:

Apparently my problem was the RouteConverter Android app. When I used the RouteConverter Java app on my PC it worked fine. The only problem with the Java app is the font size in the application. Hard to read the menu's etc. Don't know how to fix that other than to change monitor resolution perhaps.
