| - 1.0 Compilation of LibMTP on Windows 2000/XP/NT
|
| ------------------------------------------------------------
|
| -LibMTP currently compiles under Windows using MingW/MSys. The source relies upon the __WIN32__ macro which is defined by MinGW by default.
|
| -
|
| -Libraries:
|
| -LibMTP currently depends on LibUSB and libiconv. There are currently projects that port both of these libraries to Windows. Binary files can be
|
| -obtained from:
|
| -
|
| -LibUSB Win32 - http://libusb-win32.sourceforge.net/
|
| -
|
| -LibIconv - http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/libiconv.htm
|
| -
|
| -With both of these libraries extracted and placed in MinGW's search path, you can compile the library by opening the Msys prompt, navigating to
|
| -the path where the extracted LibMTP source files can be found and typing:
|
| -
|
| -./configure
|
| -make all
|
| -make install

| - 2.0 LibUSB and Driver Issues for Windows
|
| -----------------------------------------------
|
| -
|
| -Unfortunately, Windows does not have abstract USB support and depends upon specific drivers for each and every device you use. Fortunately,
|
| -LibUSB-Win32 provide a solution to this problem. LibMTP takes advantage of the LibUSB-Win32 Device Driver package.
|
| -
|
| -1. Download the latest device driver binary package (libusb-win32-device-bin-x.x.x.x.tar.gz) from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=78138
|
| -2. Upon extraction, plug in your music device and run bin/inf-wizard.exe. Selecting your device and saving the inf file in the project root directory.
|
| -3. Copy the files "bin/libusb0.dll" and "libusb0.sys" or "libusb0_x64.dll" and "libusb0_x64.sys" for 32-bit or 64-bit operating systems respectively.
|
| -4. Goto Start -> Run, type "devmgmt.msc" and press "ok".
|
| -5. Select your music device from the list and click Action -> Update Driver, Choose "No, not this time" if prompted to connect to microsoft.
|
| -6. Choose "Install from a list or specific location".
|
| -7. Choose "Don't search, I will choose the driver to install
|
| -8. Click the "Have Disk..." button in the bottom right corner of the prompt
|
| -9. Browse to your .inf file and select it. Press Ok
|
| -10. The name of your music device should appear in the prompt, click it and click "Next>" (Ignore any prompts about Driver Signing, continuing
|
| -installation of the selected driver).
|
| -11. Click finish to end the driver install process.
|
| -
|
| -To get your old driver back:
|
| -
|
| -1. Goto Start -> Run, type "devmgmt.msc" and press "ok".
|
| -2. Select your music device, right click on it and click "Properties"
|
| -3. Go to the "Driver" pane and select "Roll Back Driver".
