<div>Ok, under Windows, some parts are not yet implemented.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1/ Gphoto2 (MTP driver) : this library is not yet ported
officially under Windows. I received a Git Merge Request to
cross compile code under Linux for Windows (like all the rest
of digiKam for Windows), but i don't find yet the time to
review.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>2/ device detection as under Linux : KDE::Solid does not
yet support this.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>==> if MTP protocol is used to communicate with the
device, it's not recognized as a UMS device. As MTP is not yet
supported under Windows with digiKam, no way.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>==> if you find a way to switch from MTP to UMS, well
Windows will attach the device somewhere on the system. Find
the path, and under digiKam, use the Import/Folder... option
from the main menu.</div>

Just found the path: <br>
<br>
mtp:\Galaxy A51 de Frederic\Card\DCIM\Camera (the one I used
with freefilesync to synchronize my smartphone on my PC))<br>
<br>
and then I've been able to create a camera as an USB device
, but I have an error when launching the import : "unable to
connect to the device ...." while the same path is working
with freefilesync<br>
<br>
any ideas ?<br>
<br>
FYI: the smartphone is configured to the "transfert
pictures" mode<br>
<br>

<div>1/ select the transfert of photo from your
smartphone as Usb Mass Storage.</div>
<div>2/ connect your smartphone to your computer and
look if it detected as an USB key.</div>
<div>3/ look where is mounted the smartphone by the
system (path)</div>
<div>4/ Setup a UMS device in digiKam setup camera.
configure the mounted path.</div>
<div>5/ on your camera, give the right to the computer
to read contents (if necessary).</div>
<div>6/ start the Import tool in digiKam.</div>

I'm searching a way to import pictures from my
smartphone (Samsung A51) <br>
as I'm doing with the SD card of my camera (select
only new pictures) . <br>
I'm using it in parallel with my camera and
importing the pictures <br>
manualy is painful and not secure. In a previous
discussion there was a <br>
proposal to use transfert tools like freefilesync,
but it will detect <br>
likely only new pictures until you didn't removed
some already imported <br>
(then you will import them again)<br>
<br>
So I tried again to investigate on the connection of
my smartphone to DK <br>
(now using 7.5) but seems Digikam is looking for
network drive only and <br>
I didn't find how to assign a drive to the SD card
of my smartphone. I <br>
also look at DK configuration to create a camera ,
but same problem, DK <br>
is looking for a network drive.<br>
This may not be a problem on DK side, but I'm
wondering if someone found <br>
an efficient way for such import<br>
<br>
thanks all for your feedback<br>
<br>
Regards<br>
<br>
