Rizwan, Sorry, but I don't understand the question. You say:
If you have no idea about the format, then how do you know it is not a proper example of the format? Once you create the file, what are you then attempting to do with it? Perhaps you just do not understand what do with a file created by MMSCOMP. A file created by MMSCOMP is a binary MMS message file in the m-retrieve.conf format. A link to this type of file can be included in an MMS notification message, so that it can be downloaded as an MMS message by a mobile phone. Trying to do anything other than this with this file will most likely not be successful. | ||||

Sigh ... Simulators are frustrating beasts. When you say that yu put the file in the Nokia simulator ... which Nokia simulator, and how? I can tell you that a perfectly valid MMS file can be found at the following URL: http://www.nowsms.com/download/btmms.mms That MMS file doesn't include a SMIL file. It opens fine in the Nokia 7210 simulator, and the NMIT (Nokia Mobile Internet Toolkit) 4.0. An example of files that you can feed into MMSCOMP can be found in the following thread: http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/12/2050.html | ||||

Here's a link that might help you. It explains the protocols that NowSMS supports for receiving messages from a value added service provider: http://www.nowsms.com/documentation/ProductDocumentation/mms_notifications_and_c ontent/Submitting_MMS_Messages.htm | ||||

Rizwan, My confusion is that I do not undrestand what you mean when you say "give parameters to the mmsc". I do not understand what the "mmsc" is in this context. Are you referring to an operator MMSC? If so, how are you connecting to the operator MMSC? Or are you just referring to the MMSC that is built into NowSMS? If you are referring to the MMSC that is built into NowSMS, then I'd start with the web menu interface. You can submit the message through the "Send MMS Message" option in the web menu ... in which case NowSMS becomes the web server that hosts the MMS content. Or you can put the binary MMS file on another web server. Make sure that web server is configured to return the MIME type "application/vnd.wap.mms-message" for the file. And use the "Send MMS Notification" option in the web menu interface of NowSMS to send a notification to the phone that tells the phone to retrieve that file as an MMS message. | ||||

It depends on how you submit the message to the gateway. If you have a binary MMS file, you need to post it to the gateway. http://www.nowsms.com/documentation/ProductDocumentation/mms_notifications_and_c ontent/Submitting_MMS_Messages.htm How you specify the recipients depends on the interface that you use. A binary compiled MMS can be submitted via the proprietary URL submission, MM1 or EAIF. The proprietary URL submission has two different ways that it can work ... through an HTTP POST or HTTP GET. The HTTP GET approach requires that you first place the ".mms" file on another web server. The HTTP POST approach posts the content to the server. The MM1 approach is a simpler HTTP POST, but it requires that the To: field be included in the binary MMS file. The EAIF approach is a variation on MM1. With it, you do an HTTP POST of the MMS file, but you include an "X-Nokia-MMSC-To:" header specifying the intended recipients. Is there any chance that you have some experience with PHP? There's an example PHP script at the following link that simplifies the proprietary URL submission technique. And you don't have to precompile the MMS message into a binary file first either: http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/1/1113.html | ||||

Rizwan, Are you able to send MMS messages through the NowSMS web interface? If so, then there is nothing else that needs to be done. If not, then you need to set up SMS and/or MMS connectivity from the gateway to the mobile operator network. (See http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/1/589.html.) | ||||
