The <Configuration>/<Database>/<Synchronization>/<MSS> element

The <Configuration>/<Database>/<Synchronization>/<MSS> element configures mediastore synchronizers (MSSs) for specific mediastore types. Currently, only the synchronizers for Apple devices can be configured by this element.

Names a library file that implements a synchronization algorithm for a certain mediastore type.

For Apple devices running iAP1, you can use three synchronizers that are defined in the mss-ipodgeneric.so, mss-ipodpb.so, and mss-ipoduid.so libraries.

For Apple devices running iAP2, you can use the synchronizer defined in mss-ipodiap2.so.

These synchronizers aren't shipped with mm-sync—to use them, you must install the Apple Device Support package for QNX Multimedia Suite. For details about purchasing this package, contact your QNX Project Manager. Then, you can learn more about these synchronizers by reading Working with Apple Devices, which is shipped with this software package.
