NS_E_PDA_UNSUPPORTED_FORMAT

The item format is not supported for this sync path

NS_E_PDA_UNSUPPORTED_FORMAT (0xC00D1178) means the file type or media format cannot be handled by the Player/device synchronization path. Do not infer that the device is disconnected or that every file will fail.

Identify the rejected format

Record container type, audio/video codecs, DRM status, file extension, and the target device's advertised capabilities. Verify whether Windows Media Player can decode the source and whether a supported transcode profile exists for the device.

Retest

Use one known-supported file on the same device. If it syncs, the device/session is healthy and the original format is the differentiator. Converting the original item to a supported format is valid only if rights and device policy allow conversion.
