Hi Lorenzo, I've written a patch against rhythmbox that adds basic support for MTP devices. The patch is attached to the bug-report at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=345006 . At this point it's quite useful and support most of the things you would expect it to, like transferring songs and podcasts o the device, play and copy music from the device, renaming the device etc.
Unfortunately I don't have very much free time at my hands right now. I'm graduation from high-school (swedish gymnasium) in the middle of June, so the time I've to spend on the plug-in is very close to zero. However if you would be interested to get involved and help out I would appreciate it very much. -- Peter Grundström <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> On Sun, 2007-04-29 at 12:57 +0000, Lorenzo Frattini wrote: > Hi everybody, > I just subscribed to this mailing list so, first of all, let me introduce > myself: my name is Lorenzo, and I'm from Italy.
