Abstract
Image editing and photo management may be implemented over a PTP and/or MTP connection as disclosed herein. A connection may be established between a client device and a portable device using, for example, PTP and/or MTP. A request to open a HTML pseudo-file on the portable device may be received. The HTML file may be provided by the portable device over the connection. The portable device may operate a web server that provides a URL to the client device and/or converts an image data file location on the portable device into a URL that can be read by a web browser operating on the client device.
