NAME
mtpfs - FUSE filesystem for Media Transfer Protocol devices
SYNOPSIS
mtpfsmountpoint
[options]
DESCRIPTION
mtpfs
is a FUSE filesystem that supports reading and writing from MTP (Media
Transfer Protocol) devices, such as MP3 players, video players or digital
cameras.
When files are written to the filesystem their file extension is checked
to determine the filetype. This means that images, videos and ICS files
(for example) will be recognised by the player rather than setting filetype
to `unknown'.
There is also a virtual directory called "/Playlists" which contains your
playlists as .m3u files. If you write an m3u file to that directory a playlist
will be created as well. m3u files are just a text file containing a list of
all tracks you want in the playlist one per line).
