NAME

       mtpfs - FUSE filesystem for Media Transfer Protocol devices

SYNOPSIS

       mtpfs mountpoint [options]

DESCRIPTION

       mtpfs  is  a FUSE filesystem that supports reading and writing from MTP
       (Media Transfer Protocol) devices, such as MP3 players,  video  players
       or digital cameras.

       When  files  are  written  to  the  filesystem  their file extension is
       checked to determine the filetype. This means that images,  videos  and
       ICS  files  (for  example) will be recognised by the player rather than
       setting filetype to `unknown'.

       There is also a virtual directory called  "/Playlists"  which  contains
       your  playlists  as  .m3u  files.  If  you  write  an  m3u file to that
       directory a playlist will be created as well. m3u files are just a text
       file  containing  a list of all tracks you want in the playlist one per
       line).
