Step 2: Add MTP Responder Catalog Items to Your OS Design (Compact 7)
3/12/2014
MTP Responder for Windows Embedded Compact 7 provides the functionality that enables a device to communicate with Device Stage. Device Stage technology presents a graphical interface that makes it easy for users to find and use applications and services for their device when it is connected to a computer running Windows 7.
To add MTP Responder support to your OS design, add one or more of the following catalog items and SYSGEN variables to your OS design. Use the MTP Responder (default) catalog item unless you intend to modify or replace the provided transport components. If you do not use MTP Responder (default), you must include MTP Responder (minimal) and at least one transport, or use equivalent components of your own design. You select MTP Responder functionality in Platform Builder in the Catalog Items View window.
| Catalog item | SYSGEN variable | Description |
|---|---|---|
MTP Responder (default) |
SYSGEN_MTP_RESPONDER |
Adds the following components: MTP responder stack, Media MDB storage, and MTP USB transport. |
MTP Responder (minimal) |
SYSGEN_MTP_RESPONDER_MIN |
Adds MTP responder stack and Media MDB storage but no MTP transports. |
MTP USB Transport |
SYSGEN_MTP_RESPONDER_USB |
Adds MTP over USB transport functionality. |
MTP IP Transport |
SYSGEN_MTP_RESPONDER_IP |
Adds MTP over IP transport functionality. |
When you select MTP Responder (default) or MTP Responder (minimal), you implicitly include the Windows Embedded Compact Media Library catalog item. When you include the Media Library, you must explicitly enable support for specific audio and video formats by adding any associated codecs, file support, filters, or renderers that you will use with MTP Responder. For more information, see Encoded Media Catalog Items and Sysgen Variables.
For information about selecting catalog items, see Adding Catalog Items to an OS Design. For information about setting SYSGEN variables, see Setting or Clearing a Sysgen Variable.
After you add MTP Responder catalog items to the OS design, go to Step 3: Configure Registry Settings in Your OS Design.
