Difference's in handheld support
« on: April 07, 2004, 03:11:31 am »

I would like to know what the difference are in handheld support:
  • What are the extra features when there is a plug-in for a handheld like the iPOD
  • What are the extra features when it is a WMDM handheld
  • What are the extra features when the handheld behaves like a fixed diskdrive
Is it possible to have a the same view of your handheld music like on the PC. I mean seeing the type of music along with artist and albumname.Why can't I see the rating on my handheld like on the PC.

It depends on what information the player manufactur makes available through a software developers kit (SDK).

WMDM is a type of SDK and makes certain information available. Whatever the player makes available via this SDK, MC shows.

When a player behaves as a fixed drive there is no SDK. Any information that is shown is generated as if the file were resident on your PC.

The type of music (i.e. mp3, ape) should already be shown. The rating is now included in tonight's build.
