IPortableDeviceCapabilities::GetFixedPropertyAttributes method (portabledeviceapi.h)
The GetFixedPropertyAttributes method retrieves the standard property attributes for a specified property and format. Standard attributes are those that have the same value for all objects of the same format. For example, one device might not allow users to modify video file names; this device would return WPD_PROPERTY_ATTRIBUTE_CAN_WRITE with a value of False for WMV formatted objects. Attributes that can have different values for a format, or optional attributes, are not returned.
