New AS plugin: Portabe Devices (MTP & PTP protocols)

[Jan Rysavy]

We would like to announce a new plugin: Portable Devices. It is presented in Change Drive menu (Alt+F1/F2) and allows accessing portable devices supporting MTP/PTP protocols. It would be possible to browse, copy, move, rename, delete, and view files and directories on Android phones and tablets, Apple iOS devices, Windows mobile devices, digital cameras, portable media players, etc. It is based on the Windows Portable Devices (WPD) layer. Both x86 and x64 Salamander versions are supported. Plugin type: file system. Plugin is implemented by our friend Manison and will be released in Early Access Program. Plugin will be part of standard Altap Salamander license (no extra payment as for WinSCP, PictView, and SFX).

Now that is a good news! Manison is really fast & reliable plugin developer .

Awesome. How long will it take to get the plugin? This is my largest feature request.

[Jan Rysavy]

We have no idea, but it will take some time.

You are announcing a product but have no idea of the release date?

[Jan Rysavy]

Please take it just as information what we are working on. For final (released) product you can subscribe to newsletter and ignore these posts.

Is there a early test version of this new plugin? I'm using a Windows Phone Lumia 920.

[Jan Rysavy]

It is available only in our internal build (Windows 7+ only). For now only folders browsing is working - no operations (View, Copy, Move, Rename, Delete) are supported. Manison is working on plugin foundations. It looks he is testing plugin on his Windows based phone.

[Andre.Ziegler]

any progress on this plugin?

[Jan Rysavy]

Unfortunately Manison has no time right now.

[DJ_ZX]

is there any alpha or beta version that users can try?

[Jan Rysavy]

Unfortunately zero progress, Manison have no free time.

This started more than 2 years ago
Is this still not available or did I miss soemthing

[Andre.Ziegler]

after 4.0 is out, will see any progress in this plugin? It would beklp to copy/move data from/to smartphone. Explorer is often buggy here.

[Jan Rysavy]

No progress on this plugin, but we can open source it. Let us know if you are interested...
