| Summary | 0006324: Some devices don't show after connection in MM | ||||
| Description | Devices that defer connection of SD card as a mass storage device aren't notified by MM, until MM is restarted. Namely, this happens with Blackberry devices and with Google Nexus One phone. This happens on Windows 7 and Vista, but not on XP. The problem isn't caused by MM, the same issue happens to WMP - i.e. it's apparent that it's a problem down in WMDM/WPD layers. The exact problem happens as follows: 1. MM (or WMP) is started. 2. A device is connected. 3. It creates a drive letter, but the drive isn't fully working yet (read error). 4. Later, the drive is fully mounted, Windows shows its auto-start dialog, the drive becomes readable, but the change isn't noticed by WMDM and the device still isn't listed in its internal list of devices. Potential fixes: 1. Restart WMDM internally in d_WMDM plug-in. However, there are many potential problems. 2. Use normal filesystem routines for mass storage devices in d_WMDM plug-in. However, it means quite a lot of work, changes and duplicities. It would hopefully all work fine then? 3. MS fixes the problem. This would certainly be the best, but probably won't occur. | ||||

Fixed in build 1334. - Fixed using method 1., it seems to be implemented properly and without and negative side effects. |
|
|
Re-opened, because in recent builds the problem occurs for me, if I connect My ZEN (when MM is running) it shows the device for a second in Media Tree and then immediatelly disappers. |
