Hi, just found your program (FreeFileSync).
Very nice application, just what I needed now I have a phone that only has "Media Transfer Protocol" :(

Tried to use RealTimeSync, it says MTP dose not support directory monitoring.

Are you working on a workaround so that RealTimeSync can work with MTP devices?

RealTimeSync relies on directory monitoring.
And as indicated, MTP (just like FTP and SFTP) does not support that.

I just thought:
As FreeFileSync is able to sync an MTP device, perhaps RealTimeSync could be made to detect USB device connection, if it detects a USB, it then checks to see if there is the MTP path specified.

Just a thought.
It would be nice if it could do that.
