I am currently testing it out on my Dell Pocket DJ running the latest MTP firmware. So far no luck doing much. The only thing it does is recognize whats on the player, and it shows me it in folder format which is great
I attempted to transfer over a few tracks at once. I first deleted a few songs from the player before transfering over the new set using MM, just incase if any errors come up. I noticed that no matter what setting I choose for Synchronize tracks to none of the songs were transfering over. So I just entered a weird directory of where to put the songs, the folder got created, however inside there were no songs. I listened to the hard drive to see if it was in fact working and it does process, but only if the folder doesn't exist, none of the tracks get transfered over. No tracks on my player are DRM enabled. They are all MP3 files using various encoding techniques (CBR and VBR).
I attempted to edit an ID3 tag on a song and it does not change on the player, nor does the hard drive even process.
I attempted to play a song using the Play Now, and the Play Next options and the song refused to play. Nothing was getting transfered over.
It doesn't recognize the playlists on the player. I think you might be using the way Windows Media Player 10 recognizes it and thats why its not showing up. Real Player 10.5 and Musicmatch 10 show the playlists on my player correctly, perhaps you might want to take a look and see if you can make MM work the same way.
As for starting up MM, I ran into an access violation error, it took me a while to figure out that I had to hit cancel, I was clicking on Ignore all the time, but cancel seems to work. I am running the debug as of posting, haven't tried clicking cancel on the other beta release.
I clicked on the Portable Device icon and it instantly found my player which was really great!
As the Dell Pocket DJ is a Creative family player its prob best to get it working with a Creative Zen Micro first as you might have access to that player easier than a Dell. If you want to ask me any questions on the player feel free to PM or e-mail me....
Otherwise, its getting there with MTP support, hope these fixes get tuned up as I would really like to see MM get MTP support.
