Creating an MTP application

Morning,

I'm writing an application in C# (VS2003 currently) and I've got a new
requirement to sync files to an MTP device. I can't seem to find a
component (either COM or .NET) which I can use for MTP. Can someone
push me in the right direction?

Thanks

Hi Samuel,

The Media Transfer Protocol is a set of custom extensions to the Picture
Transfer Protocol, and is supported in Windows XP if Windows Media Player
10 or later is installed. Windows Vista natively implements MTP.

MTP-compatible devices use drivers that Microsoft is shipping with Windows
Media Player 10, and users will be able to perform all transfer and
synchronization functions from within the Player.

If you'd like to write your own application to do the transfer and
synchronization function that Windows Media Player 10 does, I believe you
need to use Windows Media Device Manager 10 SDK.

To get Windows Media Device Manager 10 SDK, you may visit the following
link:

Hope this helps.

Linda, thanks for this - if I'm using Vista, can you point to the
objects I need to use. Has anyone ever produced any example code for
this, as I can't find any. I can't install the Windows Media Device
Management SDK on Vista.

Thanks again

Samuel

Hi Samuel,

Thank you for your prompt response.

I had a try installing the Windows Media Format 9.5 SDK (WMFSDKv9.5) on
Windows Vista, and did see it couldn't be installed on Vista. To tell you
the truth, I have never install WMFSDKv9.5 on Vista before, so I didn't
know it couldn't be installed on Vista. I am terribly sorry for that!

I have consulted this in our inner discussion group and the experts advice
you to download the WMFSDKv11 on the following page:

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/win.../bb190309.aspx

As for a sample, I only found the a MTP sample written in VC++ with VS05.
You may visit the following link for more information.

Hope this helps.
