MTP Compliance Test - Requirements - Digital Camera

  • Article

This device test validates compliance with Picture Transfer Protocol (PTP) and Media Transfer Protocol (MTP).

This test makes sure that devices support specific requirements for digital cameras. This test is directed at digital camera devices that use MTP. This test validates compliance with defined protocols based on requirements that are documented in the Windows Certification Program.

Note  

This test does not cover the following items:

  • Digital rights management (DRM) validation

  • Devices that use proprietary (third-party) drivers that work with the Windows Portable Device (WPD) driver stack

Running the test

Before you run the test, complete the test setup as described in the test requirements: Device.Portable Testing Prerequisites.

This test copies test content to the device for testing. If the device is read-only make sure the device has at least one file of each format type supported by the device.

Troubleshooting

For troubleshooting information, see Troubleshooting Device.Portable Testing.

More Information

This automated test requires a PTP or MTP-compatible device and provides Pass/Fail results for each requirement.

This test is divided into the following functional categories:

  • Device Capabilities tests

  • Operations tests

  • Device Properties

  • Object Property tests

Each functional category contains child test cases, which test the subcomponents that fall under the corresponding category.

The test validates that the device supports the following operations:

  • OpenSession

  • CloseSession

  • GetDeviceInfo

  • GetStorageIDs

  • GetStorageInfo

  • GetNumObjects

  • GetObjectHandles

  • GetObjectInfo

  • GetObject

  • GetDevicePropDesc

  • GetDevicePropValue

The test validates that the following formats are supported:

  • Association

  • EXIF/JPEG

All other supported operations, device properties, and object properties are considered optional, and therefore will be validated according to implementation details defined in the Picture Transfer Protocol (PTP) for Digital Still Photography Devices, Version 1.0 (PIMA15740) and Media Transfer Protocol (MTP), Revision 1.0.
