MC won't copy photos to a Compact Flash card.
Here are some specifics: I have a 128MB CF card which is inserted into a card reader attached to my PC. It is a multicard reader so four drives show up in explorer. But only the drive with a card in it shows up in MC (at least when Enable Support for WMDM Devices is UNchecked-- when it's checked all four drives show up).
I can copy music files to the CF card just fine-- either by dragging them to the Handheld Player window or to Drive N under Drives and Devices in the main tree. Under both methods, dragging files adds them to a list, which I can transfer by hitting the Transfer button.
I have tried using the same procedure to transfer photos as well. Everything works until I hit the Transfer button. It asks me if I want to tranfer 3 files; I click yes. The queue of files is cleared, but nothing is transferred and no explanation is given.
Therefore several questions/comments:
1. Does MC not support transferring files other than audio files? If it is not supported, MC should say so and not let me queue files to be transfered.
2. If this is not supported, I woud strongly urge you to support these types of transfers. I use them for moving photos to a CF card to take to a drug store to print, but as multimedia players become more prevalent, I'm sure people will want to transfer multiple types of media to them.
3. If this is not supported, does this mean that copying non-audio files in the drives and devices tree isn't allowed either? This would be strange behavior.
4. Have I missed changing a simple setting in MC that will allow this to work?
5. Why do drives without card media inserted show up when Enable Support for WMDM Devices is checked?
Thanks in advance for your help.
