OK, here goes:
$ mtp-detect
libmtp version: 1.0.3
Listing raw device(s)
Device 0 (VID=05ac and PID=1294) is a Sony DCR-SR75.
Found 1 device(s):
Sony: DCR-SR75 (05ac:1294) @ bus 1, dev 17
Attempting to connect device(s)
LIBMTP PANIC: Unable to read device information on device 17 on bus 1,

OK.

I assume you tried editing:
/usr/share/hal/fdi/information/10freedesktop/10-usb-music-players-libmtp.fdi
