00:28:06RipnetUKgot the entire tree view scrolling now :)
00:28:18RipnetUKon hardware, nicely done with #ifdefs to turn it off
00:28:25Bagderniiice
00:29:18dwihnoI just tested the ffw
00:29:20dwihnoI love it
00:29:22RipnetUKdoes seem to be a little slow on the real hardware now... will have to optimize the plotting of the window I think, was OK when only 2/3 of screen, so not too far away... will try and tidy up tomorow
00:29:23dwihno:)
00:29:41BagderRipnetUK: you still do the copying bit by bit?
00:29:45RipnetUKyes
00:29:57Bagderok, then you'll have a lot to gain still ;-)
00:30:00RipnetUKgonna optimize that a bit soon and do it 8 bits at a time
00:30:16RipnetUKyeah, plenty of & and | going on there, as well as shifting, and multiplying needlessly
00:30:29BagderI can imagine
00:30:53Bagderwhen you have that sorted out, I'll line up for a test patch ;-)
00:31:59RipnetUKi have stuck a compiled recorder firmware at http://www.ripnet.co.uk/scroll.zip if neone would like a look, but any comments can u email me, as I need sleep :)
00:32:15RipnetUKcant be arsed with diff tonight
00:32:19Bagderok, I might have a go, thanks
00:32:42RipnetUKnight
00:32:46Bagdernight RipnetUK
00:33:03BagderI have this terrible packet loss atm
00:33:11Bagderpainful
00:33:19RipnetUKoh dear... u using parcelforce ;)
00:33:37Bagderno, plain fine adsl
00:33:48Bagderdon't know what's going on
00:34:12RipnetUKwhen that happens to me, usually 'other end'... anyway, gotta go, catch ya later
00:34:24Bagdergo sleep!

01:41:00BoD[]hello !
01:41:45BoD[]hey I have a little question .. what does the mp3/m3u filter do exactly ?
01:42:08PsycoXulshows only mp3/m3u files if on, or all files if off
01:42:21BoD[]ah ok thanks :)
01:44:29BoD[]oh I have another question... is there an easy way to change the boot screen logo ?
01:46:26adi|homelast i checked you should be able to add a file to the archos root directory by the same name as the logo
01:46:33adi|homeand if that is there, the firmware should load it
01:46:44adi|homeif not, it pulls from source, but Im no 100% positive
01:47:14adi|homefile name rockbox112.bmp
01:47:14BoD[]hmmm,
01:47:40BoD[]well i'll try that

02:34:12MeRWiNyou tried the fast forward/rewind yet?

02:49:28dwihnoI tried it
02:49:30dwihnoI like it
02:56:20MeRWiNseem to work nicely
02:57:34BoD[]I noticed that the loading of a song is slower than with archos' firmware
02:57:46BoD[]but of course the loading of a playlist is 1000x faster
02:57:58BoD[]is this normal ?
02:58:02MeRWiNWe're working on speeding it up... it's a tough task with so little ra
02:58:04MeRWiNram
02:59:09BoD[]but is it related to the loading of the playlists ? or not at all
02:59:49BoD[]like ... archos' firmware is slow because they do work to speed up the loading of songs after
03:00
03:02:21MeRWiNIt's not related to the playlists, no... we just do playlists better than them
03:02:30MeRWiNand at present, our file loading is a bit slower than theirs
03:04:06BoD[]ok
03:04:13BoD[]i was just wondering :)
03:04:16BoD[]thanks !
03:04:46BoD[]i have to go to bed ... 3:02 :)

03:54:21MeRWiNyeah
03:54:29MeRWiNI think the userbase is exploding
03:54:32MeRWiNespecially since 1.2
03:55:08PsycoXulyeah
03:55:13PsycoXul1,2 cleaned up the mess that was 1.1
03:55:30MeRWiNPsycoXul: exactly
04:00
04:00:48PsycoXulsomebody needs to find and mp3 all the cut material from the hitchhikers guide to the galaxy radio show, the stuff that didn't make it to broadcast
04:01:28MeRWiNI'm sure somebody has it
04:02:00adi|homei just want the full mp3's period..
04:02:04adi|homei haven't heard it a,.ll
04:02:10adi|homei read the books.. but not the radio show
04:02:34MeRWiNi've never heard the radio show either
04:05:24PsycoXuli've got it
04:05:34PsycoXulits like 22khz 56kbps
04:05:51PsycoXulbut its mostly voice anyways, and is 6 hours long...
04:05:53MeRWiNthat's not bad for radio
04:06:02PsycoXul140mb total
04:06:10PsycoXulif somebody has a place i'll up it...
04:06:16PsycoXulthough i found it through google i think
04:12:02MeRWiNmaybe i'll have you up it tomorrow night when I'm at home. Apparently my home computer shut off :P
04:12:11PsycoXulheh ok
04:13:43***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
04:29:45datazonehey adi
04:30:32datazonehows the directory icons coming?
04:31:45MeRWiNspeaking of icons, are there going to be player icons for dirs, or is this what you're talking about?
04:39:38PsycoXulwe could have
04:39:52PsycoXulput them in the column where the selection arrow is
04:40:07PsycoXulexcept that it'd be covered up by the arrow... heh
04:41:11PsycoXulwe could put the icon for the entry being pointed at in the blank space but that might be confusing for people
04:43:45MeRWiNmove the words over to the right one more
04:44:04PsycoXulyeah but 11 chars is too short already
04:44:10PsycoXuland it's at 10 now with the pointer
04:44:18PsycoXulwhich i'd already like to try to find an alternative to
04:44:45datazoneadi was working on some icons
04:45:07datazonethe only thing that upsets me is that names shorter than the length of the screen always ends up in all uppercase
04:45:10datazoneso distracting
04:46:06PsycoXulif the player gets a compiled-in font and depending on the user-definable patterns functions/api we could invert the first char of the selection entry as a pointer and use all 11 chars...
04:46:19PsycoXulor we could do that and keep it with 10 chars and put the icons in the first char
04:49:53adi|homedatazone: their not.. i stopped working on it.. im planning on hit it more tonight...
04:50:18datazoneokay
04:50:34MeRWiNdidja see my id3 info displayer in the player? :-)

07:11:15Zagormorning
07:11:25elinenbe|storethat bug yesterday was just my build
07:11:38elinenbe|storeI got a clean CVS and it is great now.
07:11:44 Nick elinenbe|store is now known as elinenbe (trilluser@pcp02254422pcs.wanarb01.mi.comcast.net)
07:11:56elinenbebut there still seems to be a bug or two
07:12:17elinenbeif you fast forward through a song until the end, it will then start playijng the next song without updating all information on the display
07:12:22elinenbeand....
07:12:28elinenbestatus bar knows as soon as the plug is plugged in, but it takes maybe 30 seconds to start the battery charging graphic

07:17:26LinusNBeen up all night?
07:17:32Zagornope
07:17:47LinusNso why are you up so early, it's not like you
07:18:05Zagorhehe. it gets too hot to sleep in the morning.
07:18:24Zagori can't wait for this darn summer to be over :-)
07:18:37LinusNhave to get up early to snap off some discussions in the mailing list
07:19:04elinenbeBoth LinusN and Zagor were on less then 8 hours ago. You guys need more sleep :-D
07:19:08Zagoryou left a warning in mpeg.c, btw
07:19:19Zagorelinenbe: hehe
07:19:23LinusNand you felt a nasty bug in wps.c
07:19:28LinusNleft
07:19:36Zagorwhat is that?
07:19:56LinusNwhen you play a file from the browser, the next file is played instead
07:19:58adi|homeLinusN: my reply wans't out of line on the list was it?
07:20:12LinusNon the contrary
07:21:14LinusNthe wps steps to the next file on key-up events, even those that were pressed in the dir prowser to play a file and when exiting the menu
07:21:23elinenbeLinusN: did you get my new bug reports?
07:21:28elinenbeif you fast forward through a song until the end, it will then start playijng the next song without updating all information on the display
07:21:32elinenbeand....
07:21:39elinenbestatus bar knows as soon as the plug is plugged in, but it takes maybe 30 seconds to start the battery charging graphic
07:22:48LinusNelinenbe: the charging is supposed to start late
07:22:58elinenbeLinusN: why is that?
07:23:04LinusNit must gather some statistics about the battery status before charging
07:23:51LinusNthe fast forward has a lot off issues
07:23:56elinenbeLinusN: It can't just dump into charging mode and then refine itself as it gathers the data?
07:23:58LinusNbut it is a step forward
07:24:07LinusNelinenbe: why?
07:24:25elinenbeLinusN: also, the default value for the contrast is still quite low.
07:24:35LinusNfor the recorder?
07:25:02elinenbeLinusN: I just think that the status bar should display the charging battery −− for the users sake. they may think something is wrong as I did.
07:25:11elinenbeyeah, for the recorder.
07:25:17elinenbeit is quite dim here on my end.
07:25:29elinenbeI run it at 44.
07:25:30LinusNit's perfect for me
07:25:39LinusNat 44 it's totally dark for me
07:25:45elinenbewow!
07:25:56elinenbeI can hardly see anything at the default value.
07:26:00LinusNi guess that's why the contrast is adjustable
07:26:04elinenbeajbr6k
07:26:17Zagorelinenbe: most people get confused with the battery status during charging and pull out the plug too early. that's why we decided to remove it.
07:26:19LinusNajbr20k
07:27:10elinenbesuggestions: instead of a skip size for the ff/rw −− just let it ramp up the longer you hold down the button.
07:27:39Zagorelinenbe: yes. i'm working on repeat accelleration
07:27:51elinenbesuggestion: ff/rr into next and previous song respectively...
07:28:32elinenbesuggestion: keep the step size, but add the ramping feature into the options menu. some people will like it different ways.
07:28:38elinenbesuggestion: I need to go to bed.

07:28:48LinusNsuggestion: go to bed
07:28:58LinusNif(tired) goto bed;
07:31:06elinenbe|sleepone last thing... there is a story on slashdot.org about mp3 players and the archos and rockbox get quite a few shout outs...
07:36:59Zagoryeah, I saw it too.
07:41:24LinusNZagor: are you working on the FF key-up "feature"?
07:41:41Zagornot right now, no. fix it if you have time.
07:42:51LinusNok
07:43:14LinusNthe balance is quite lame on the Player at the moment, but it works
07:43:22LinusNthe implementation is lame
07:43:58Zagorok. i haven't looked at it. just noticed it leaves a warning, will you fix that too?
07:44:08LinusNsure
07:46:49LinusNi was thinking of a RAM usage setting
07:46:55Zagor?
07:47:10LinusNwhere you can sacrifice buffer RAM for dir cache and stuff
07:47:37Zagorbah. why?
07:47:48LinusNto be less hostile? :-)
07:48:42Zagorthose kinds of people can never be pleased. they are just pissed it can't do the same things as their 256MB unix workstation
07:49:09LinusNi assume it's a 256MB WinXP station
07:49:32Zagoruntil someone comes up with a *reason* for supporting huge dirs, there will be no such support
07:49:44Zagorand "because it's a limitation" is not a valid reason
07:49:49LinusNZagor: now you're not fair
07:50:03ZagorI'm not?
07:50:09LinusNthe reason is of course that they have more than 200 files in a dir
07:50:42Zagorand they're too lazy to organise their collection, so they scream at us instead. yeah, I know.
07:50:52Zagoris that a good enough reason for you?
07:50:53LinusNno, they are not lazy
07:51:03LinusNthe prefer to organize their files that way
07:51:21Zagornot so
07:51:22LinusNyour way isn't necessarily the *right* way
07:51:37Zagorthe single guy reporting >200 files said it was his download dir
07:52:33LinusNmeybe so
07:53:14Zagoranyway, our dir cache fix will probably bump that limit a bit for many people
07:53:31LinusNi have made some attempts to fix that
07:53:42LinusNit's not that simple as it may sound
07:53:53Zagorno?
07:54:16LinusNthe current cache is an array of structs, with a 260 byte name and an attribute
07:54:37LinusNand the cache itself is an array of pointers to those
07:54:47LinusNthat pointer array is sorted
07:55:01Zagoryes
07:55:36LinusNwe have the option to replace the 260-byte array with a char pointer to a packed buffer
07:55:58LinusNthen we'll have one array of pointers, one array of structs and one char buffer
07:56:28LinusNi think that's an array too mahy
07:56:31LinusNmany
07:57:46Zagorwe can skip the pointer array if we don't want the performance boost it gives to sorting

07:58:08LinusNyeah, we can always sort the structs themselves

07:58:16*adi|home slaps the happiness outta Bagder
07:58:17Zagorthe boost is not as large when we use a pointer instead of a 260-byte array
07:58:27Zagorhi bro
07:58:33LinusNBy the way, i have the dir-messup that elinenbe spoke of yesterday
07:58:45Zagordir-messup?
07:58:56LinusNyou know, dirs displaying the wrong contents
07:59:00adi|homethe dir structure.. where is that held?

08:05:37Bagderfast-forward is coool
08:06:42Zagoryeah. and buggy :-)
08:06:54Bagderuck
08:07:13Bagdera minor detail I've noticed
08:07:21Bagderwhen I use F1 to get to the menus
08:07:27Bagderrun around there for a while
08:07:37Bagderthen press LEFT to go back to the WPS
08:07:45Bagderit very often counts as a LEFT in the WPS too
08:07:52adi|homein the directory structure.. how often do we reach the limit of 'MAXPATH;?
08:07:55Zagorthat's odd
08:08:03Zagoradi|home: very rarely
08:08:04adi|homei mean.. is it common to hit that limit?
08:08:13Bagderadi|home: it hardly ever happens
08:08:33adi|homehmmmm... okay... mind if i play devils advocate and brain storm for a sec?
08:08:50adi|homeelse ill find something else to think about
08:09:03Zagorshoot
08:09:17adi|homeokay.. one guy bitchs about the 200 limit
08:09:23adi|homewe agree we don't nec. like the idea
08:09:25LinusNZagor: i told you that the key-up events from previous screens are sucked up by wps
08:09:33adi|homebut that right now its the best solution we have right?
08:09:55ZagorLinusN: uhh, right. i just haven't switched on my brain yet :)
08:10:09Zagoradi|home: not really, we have a better one
08:10:20adi|homewhats that?
08:10:30Zagora fixed-size memory buffer
08:10:32LinusNZagor: i am on the case
08:10:44adi|homeright, and you just allocate from it as nec yes?
08:10:51Zagorinstead of 200 256-bytes arrays, we store the names right after each other
08:10:58*adi|home grins
08:11:05adi|homeoh sure.. here i am thinking i had a unique solution
08:11:10*adi|home goes back to picking his nose
08:11:11Zagorhehe
08:11:14adi|homebastard
08:11:36adi|homehow would we deal with bubbling then?
08:11:51LinusNbubbling?
08:11:53Zagorwe don't. the buffer is cleared every time we read a new dir.
08:12:11adi|homewell.. lets say we have the single length array...
08:12:24adi|homewith names stored sequentially, and the structure having a ptr to the location int hat arry
08:12:36adi|homewell.. are we still going to say that there is a limit of the # of files in a dir?
08:12:48Bagderno
08:12:49adi|homeor would we just 'page' that memory when you reach the end of the list?
08:12:51Zagorno. we tell it like it is
08:13:07Zagorwe pop up a message "dir size limit reached"
08:13:12*adi|home nods
08:13:13adi|homeokay.
08:13:20LinusN"dir buffer full"
08:13:22adi|homeso... whats the downside of doing this?
08:13:24Zagorpaging kills sorting, and we'll just catch more flak for that if we should implement it
08:13:48***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
08:14:07Zagoradi|home: nothing, really. we've had the idea a week or so, just haven't fixed it yet
08:14:18adi|homehmmmm...
08:14:23adi|homeanyone taken a shot at it yet?
08:14:34LinusNi have, twice
08:14:39adi|homeand no luck?
08:14:53adi|homeor just nothing your happy with?
08:14:54LinusNbut it kind of bit me, as i couldn't decide how to do it in the best way
08:15:14adi|homemind if i ask the 2 ways you did it?
08:15:14LinusNi think i do now, after discussing it with zagor
08:15:30ZagorLinusN: new thought: we should have the structs in the buffer too
08:15:36Zagorumm, no
08:15:39adi|homezagor why?
08:15:45adi|homethat don't make sense
08:15:47Zagordamn. we'll get a fixed limit on the pointer array size anyhow.
08:15:48LinusNbut then we have to align them on 32-bit boundaries
08:16:03Zagoror struct array
08:16:09LinusNZagor: of course
08:16:18Zagoryeah, just my mind catching up :-)
08:16:22LinusNbut that limit should be quite high
08:16:28Zagoryup
08:16:28adi|homecan i assume that with the name buffer, we would need to add an int for name length to the dir struct?
08:16:39LinusNthat is also why i don't want a large struct array
08:16:44Zagorno, we null terminate the names
08:16:53adi|homeokay
08:17:07adi|homeand for assignment to that array, we store a ptr so we know where to write the next name?
08:17:16Zagoryes
08:17:16adi|homeor just keep track of the full used length?
08:17:26Zagorwell, it's the same really
08:17:30adi|homenods
08:17:37*adi|home prefers ptrs *shrugs*
08:17:47adi|homeokay.. i think this is my last dead horse question
08:18:13adi|homethe actual dir structs.. umm.. would we have a fixed number of them?
08:18:33adi|homeie: a max of say 500 dir entries or something
08:18:37Zagoryes
08:19:17adi|homeso the solution is to not illiminate the dir max, its just to make it less likely to hit while conserving ram?
08:20:08Zagorwell I'd like the new buffer to be smaller than today's. so what we gain in improved use of memory is given to the mp3 buffer
08:20:10LinusNyep
08:20:19adi|homenods
08:20:27adi|homeso let me see if i fully understand this
08:20:49adi|homewe trash the d_name member of dirent
08:20:59LinusNno no no
08:21:08adi|homelet me finish :)
08:21:19Zagorwe don't touch dir.h, only tree.c
08:21:45adi|homehow does that fix our memory issue?
08:21:59LinusNthe cache is not an array of dirent's
08:22:08Zagorbecause that's where the cache is :-)

08:23:39adi|homehehe
08:23:46Zagoryes
08:23:48adi|homeokay.. let me try that again now that your back :)
08:23:51adi|homeokay...
08:23:53adi|homegot ya..
08:24:13adi|homeLinusN: what were the problems you ran into with your attempts to impliment it?
08:24:20LinusNthe sorting
08:24:28adi|homenods
08:24:45LinusNi have it figured out now
08:24:49Zagorhave you noticed playlist loading is faster now?
08:24:54LinusNno
08:24:56Zagorand now the cpu is the limit, not disk?
08:25:01adi|homehow are you going to do it?
08:25:11*adi|home thinks he knows 2 ways he would do it, but not sure what is best
08:25:16Zagormy fat_read() fix surely sped things up
08:25:20*Zagor grins
08:25:29LinusNadi|home: i will have an array of structs, and move them around in the array
08:25:35*adi|home nods
08:25:41adi|homethats what i was thinking
08:25:51LinusNthe sorting will be slower, bu i don't think it matters
08:26:01adi|homeits either that or a second array of ptrs to the array of structs.. but thats just worse ;(
08:26:06 Nick Zagor is now known as Zagor|away (bjst@as9-5-6.k.s.bonet.se)
08:26:07LinusNyup
08:26:12adi|homeitll be slower.. but it shouldn't be noticable
08:26:15adi|homethats what i did with my mud
08:26:27adi|homeand figure i have 10000 items or so
08:26:29LinusNit is actually *way* slower
08:26:34adi|homeand you didn't notice it...
08:26:35adi|homereally?
08:26:37adi|homehmmm...
08:26:49LinusNin terms of clock cycles
08:26:57adi|homehmmm.. why?

08:29:49adi|homeuse memcpy or what?

08:30:32adi|homehmm... well
08:30:48adi|homewould having a second array of char *'s be all that bad... for sorting?
08:31:01adi|homei mean.. you lose another 200+bytes
08:31:13adi|homebut you gain on expanding dir entries limit, and speed.
08:31:13Bagder200*4

08:31:33adi|homeokay... still < 1k no?

08:40:01Heswhat if you add awk '{print $1;}'|sort|uniq to get unique hosts?
08:40:07Bagdergood idea
08:40:57Bagderit makes 635 unique hosts that downloaded the 1.2 release
08:41:09Bagdercut "-d " -f1 | sort -u | wc -l
08:41:15Bagder:-)
08:43:02HesHm... why was the config block revision increased again?
08:44:43Hesit should be upgraded only and only if data moves to another location in the rtc block, or rather, when space is reused for a new purpose
08:45:29HesIf we change a definition of a single byte, we can pick a new unused byte for the new value and forget about the old one without upping the revision
08:45:36adi|homebtw.. when does the t-shirt contest close?
08:45:47Hesso that users don't loose their old config
08:45:53Bagderadi|home: the submission period runs through August
08:45:56adi|homek
08:47:29LinusNHes: i upped the revision again because Zagor reverted my last revision bumb
08:47:33LinusNbump
08:47:41HesLinusN: i think he reverted it for a reason
08:47:49LinusNno, he was ignorant
08:47:58HesWhy was it bumped?
08:48:12LinusNbecause the contrast default was 0 on older configs
08:48:35HesIsn't a contrast value of 0 unusable?
08:48:48LinusN*bingo*
08:48:57adi|homeanyone wanna give me a ballpark on the price of an average pc for home use?
08:49:00LinusNthat is why i had to bump it
08:49:32LinusNand no, a contrast value of 0 isn't necessarily unusable
08:49:49Hes if (rtc_config_block[0xa] != 0xFF) {
08:49:49Hes global_settings.contrast = rtc_config_block[0xa];
08:49:49Hes if ( global_settings.contrast < MIN_CONTRAST_SETTING )
08:49:49Hes global_settings.contrast = DEFAULT_CONTRAST_SETTING;
08:49:49Hes }
08:49:54Bagderadi|home: starting at something like 800 USD for a basic, new, one
08:49:58HesThat's what settings.c reads now, to get over the value of 0
08:50:03adi|homethanks
08:50:16HesZagor fixed it that way
08:50:18LinusNHes: why forbid 0?
08:50:38HesWhy not, why would it be unusable?
08:50:43 Join matsl [0] (~matsl@193.15.23.94)
08:50:51LinusNand why that kludge instead of bumping the revision?
08:50:52Hes... why would it be usable?
08:51:11HesBecause bumping the revision is unnecessary and makes the thing forget the old config.
08:51:42HesRead the original spec I wrote for the config block in the beginning of settings.c?
08:51:49LinusNstill, that forbids a pereftly valid contrast setting
08:52:05Hesbut perfectly useless? 8-)
08:52:27LinusNyes
08:52:42HesOnce we have settings savings, I think we should make the effort to avoid forgetting settings between versions
08:53:12HesConfig memory is reset to 0xff and initialized with 'factory defaults' if
08:53:12Hesa valid header & checksum is not found. Config version number is only
08:53:12Hesincreased when information is _relocated_ or space is _reused_ so that old
08:53:12***Alert Mode level 1
08:53:12Hesversions can read and modify configuration changed by new versions. New
08:53:12***Alert Mode level 2
08:53:12Hesversions should check for the value of '0xff' in each config memory
08:53:15Heslocation used, and reset the setting in question with a factory default if
08:53:17Hesneeded. Memory locations not used by a given version should not be
08:53:20Hesmodified unless the header & checksum test fails.
08:53:22HesSorry for the large paste 8-)
08:53:25LinusNand i also bumped it because the balance default was wrong
08:54:42adi|homeanyone have a shot of the 20 gig studio (or any studio) running rockbox?
08:54:43LinusNi could have let the revision stay at 0, but then all people would have the sound on the right ear after doanloading the latest build
08:55:05HesThat can be fixed by putting the balance into a new location in the RTC which is unused currently
08:55:17Hesand setting the current location to 0xff
08:55:33LinusNHes: and fragmenting the setting space? i think not.
08:55:48HesThat byte won't be unused for a long time...
08:56:28LinusNHes: why go through all that trouble just to keep the settings between unsupported daily builds?
08:57:04LinusNbumping the revision is far more easy
08:57:24HesBecause if we don't keep them between unsupported daily buildings, will we keep them between major releases? Or will we write a converter loader for every major release?
08:57:35HesBumping the revision is far to easy to do
08:57:37Hestoo
08:58:08LinusNi don't think people will complain if they lose the settings when upgrading from 1.x to 1.y
08:58:48HesBut they'll be delighted if they don't 8-)
09:00
09:00:10LinusNi don't want to have half-dead code in the settings just to convert settings between upgrades
09:00:23LinusNlike the contrast "fix"
09:00:45LinusNthe code should be clean and easy to figure out
09:01:07*matsl is away: I'm busy
09:01:21HesIt is pretty simple as it is. Those things can be removed at the next large release (or so) when the version is bumped
09:01:34LinusNHes: but will it?
09:01:40HesWhy not.
09:01:55LinusNwill someone go through the settings code and remove unnecessary checks?
09:02:04LinusNi don't think so
09:02:05HesIt's not a very large piece of code. I could do that.
09:02:37LinusNthen i'll let you be in charge of the settings code, and let you add new settings to it
09:03:13***Alert Mode OFF
09:03:34HesUh. I wasn't asking for that 8-)
09:04:24LinusNmy point is that the code will be a lot simpler and easier to maintain if we just bump the revision whenever it becomes incompatible
09:04:48LinusNinstead of adding conversions, like in the contrast case
09:05:01HesYou're right about that. And my point is that it doesn't come too bad if we make a little effort at keeping the old settings.
09:05:03LinusNor fragment it, like you suggested
09:05:36LinusNi see your point, and i'll keep that in mind the next time i change a setting
09:06:13adi|homeid have to agree with LinusN
09:06:21adi|homeppl have the tendance to forget stuff
09:06:23LinusNthe problem was actually only because we have saved unimplemented settings (contrast and balance)
09:06:29adi|homemay as well keep a clean house as we go.
09:06:55Hessaving unimplemented settings was my bad, yeah
09:07:16LinusNwe will probably have the same issue when we implement the poweroff setting
09:07:26LinusNand the resume
09:09:40LinusNHes: speaking of poweroff, have you looked into that?
09:10:15HesNope... only been looking at the charging lately
09:10:34Hesbut I'm thinking of leaving it untouched for a while to gather usage experience on it
09:10:43Hesit seems to be working somewhat properly now.
09:11:08HesUwe has some interesting ideas for a next-generation charger but they seem a bit harder to implement properly.
09:13:03HesMental note: poweroff timer must be disabled while charger is plugged in
09:14:40*Bagder sneaked in a Rockbox reference on slashdot (again)
09:16:21HesBtw, personally i'd rather tune the poweroff/resume into a good setting from an invalid default instead of going through the other settings again... contrast is of course a special case, having a bad default is really confusing 8-)
09:16:56HesOkay, enough of that, time to drive to work.
09:17:08LinusNhappy driving

10:21:37adi|home"waaaaaaaaaaah"
10:23:09notchMakes for a more interesting read I think :-)
10:24:47LinusNi was about to answer to that thread, but i could really find the words
10:25:06LinusNit was too silly to respond to
10:25:21HesIt'll settle down after a while.
10:25:44LinusNjust saying 'are immediately saying "show me the code" or similar, whenever anyone posts a suggestion' is pretty childish
10:26:04notchOhh I'm soo tempted to call robert tweed a bad name :-)
10:26:14notchbut i'll behave...
10:26:23BagderI was tempted to reply, but I thought I better not ;-)
10:26:44LinusNi think the 200-file discussion went out-of-hand
10:26:53Bagderit certainly did
10:27:00Bagderit turned just plain stupid
10:27:04dwihnoInteresting thread...
10:27:04HesYeah, the other Robert was generally right, but the 200-file thread was crap indeed
10:27:50LinusNwe can't please everyone
10:27:59*dwihno is pleased
10:28:03dwihnoJust thought you should know :)
10:28:22Bagdernah, we need to take a stand too, we can't take everything
10:29:09LinusNwe have made a choice not to sacrifice RAM, and if people want to do things differently they'll have to do it themselves
10:29:31HesYeah...
10:29:50Bagderif people were around on IRC more, they'd have a better understanding of us poor misunderstood developer dudes ;-]
10:30:05LinusNwe are of course willing to discuss it, like we did on the 200-file limit
10:30:13notchHe would just have to move some files into another directoy anyway... big deal...
10:30:45LinusNstill, i think the 200-file limit could seem silly for the uninitiated
10:31:02Bagderindeed, the initial question wasn't out of place
10:31:39HesHey, does tuning stack sizes make sense? power thread is using like 11% and I know it won't allocate much more while it runs
10:32:19Bagderand the full size is 2K or what is it?
10:32:24LinusNHes: i was thinking the same thing
10:32:33LinusNwe can trim the stacks a little

10:40:47dwihno:-)
10:41:25Bagderwith the mod, we will mostly likely be able to read more than 200 files though, using the same amount of mem
10:42:54LinusNyup
10:43:25Hesooh, you have a planned something?

10:46:10HesAh, ok, nice.
10:46:57Bagderdwihno: it would be possible to dig up from dissassembling, but I don't know if anyone has bothered
10:47:38LinusNit can probably be determined by measuring hard disk activity
10:47:43Hesor roughly by timing the disk read intervals for a known-bitrate stream
10:47:49Bagderyes, that too

10:49:30Bagderit isn't such a bad idea really
10:49:31dwihnoYeah, but it's not really that useful :)
10:49:46Hesnot bad, not very important, but cool 8-) I have another one...
10:50:02Bagderbtw, is the charging running now while in USB mode?
10:50:16BagderI think it should
10:50:29Hesthe fast forward's jump length (amount of stream time jumped at a time) could go up while going forward for a longer time
10:50:35Hesup to a certain jumping speed
10:50:37dwihnoNobody has bothered to add my USB connected icon thingy ;)
10:50:41BagderHes: I agree with that one
10:50:47LinusNdwihno: i forgot
10:50:54Hesit takes _long_ to fast forward some 45 minutes (i have loads of 1-hour mp3's)
10:51:13BagderHes: I would prefer that instead of having the step-time as a config option
10:51:22Hesi run an mp3 archive of my favourite radio station which broadcasts really good stuff at times when i'm not at home, or i'm sleeping 8-)
10:51:58Hesand the speed needed for going 45 mins forward is really too fast for the average user going forward a minute or so
10:52:58dwihnoBagder: the initial stepping time should be configurable, and the "acceleration" in the ffw/rew should be logarithmic, thus making it go ffffffw after 5-6 secs of 'regular ffw' (my opinion, as always)
10:53:46BagderI think the config part can go away if it is made correctly
10:53:57Bagderat least I think it's worth an attempt

12:47:55Zagordescribe the problem
12:48:28Zagorit simply does not always work?
12:48:42MeRWiNIf you FF from like 3:15 to an EOF that is 3:45, the track change will work properly (since it's within the buffer still). If you FF from like 1:00 to 3:45 then it won't work

13:02:59adi|homehi
13:03:17adi|homeZagor.. someone had a suggestion i think i like
13:03:24Zagorwhat was that?
13:03:25MoufleI can't manage to boot my freshly compiled ajbrec.ajz. This happen since I enabled Loadable fonts -> I get a white screen after logo, and no HD activity, and the blind nav/play is impoossible.
13:03:28adi|homeany chance we could get the FAQ sent to someone when they join the mailing list?
13:03:49MoufleAre there some settings to do for fonts?
13:03:49adi|homeor better yet
13:03:52ZagorMoufle: did you copy the system.ajf file to your archos?
13:03:52adi|homea remind to read it
13:04:08Zagoradi|home: i responded to your mail
13:04:12MoufleZagor: THis must be missing, is it in the doc?
13:04:26ZagorMoufle: loadable fonts is work in progress. no docs for that :-)
13:05:02Zagoror: we suffer a shortage of doc writers. do you want to contribute? ;-)
13:05:17MoufleZagor: huhu ok, so this was not a FAQ ;) I am a power user : i compile but not hack the code
13:05:57MoufleZagor: I will soon have exams, but it could be interesting, BTW since I'm frech i could create a little howto
13:06:04Moufles/ferch/french
13:06:05Zagorok. yes, the system.ajf is the loadable font, so it is required. without it, we can't even display the error message that the font wasn't found...
13:06:14Moufleof course
13:06:24MoufleI'm gonna copy it
13:06:58Zagoryou can experiment with other fonts too, but we only support loading monospaced fonts yet (no propotional)
13:07:04Bagderwe should have a small internal one
13:07:22ZagorBagder: yes. we actually link them, but don't have code to use it
13:08:19Bagderbtw, I'm all for a '.rockbox' directory on target for stuff like that
13:08:22MoufleAnd i guess I must create the file but converting the font I choose w/ an utility ?
13:09:09adi|homeZagor is the system.ajf in the cvs?
13:09:38Bagdersystem.ajf is not in cvs, it is generated from a .bdf font
13:09:47*adi|home nods

13:26:19Zagorgot it
13:27:37Mouflecorrect export PATH=***SLASH****home
13:27:53Zagoractually, it's not quite that complex. the makefile already converts a font for you, so you always get a system.ajf. the only special thing is that you have to copy a second file to the archos
13:28:14adi|homewhat file does the makefile convert for you?
13:28:17MoufleIt didn't generated it for me ;)
13:28:28Zagorare you sure? did you get an error message?
13:28:54 Quit Blaster_Master ()

13:29:50adi|homei didn't get one either.
13:29:53adi|homeodd
13:29:56Zagorwait...
13:30:34Mouflethe Makefile the configure script writes contains the instructions?
13:30:47adi|homenope... no system.ajf file
13:30:50Zagorno
13:31:25adi|homei do ../tools/configure in the build
13:31:27adi|homeand then make

13:31:47Moufleidem
13:31:49adi|homeand get no system.ajf
13:31:53Zagoryou're right, it doesn't work.
13:31:59adi|homehehhe
13:32:06Zagorhow come it worked for me before? /me is confused
13:32:08*adi|home sticks his tongue out at Zagor
13:32:11adi|homeha ha.. told you so.
13:32:21MoufleZagor: maybe you use the main makefile?
13:32:26Zagorno
13:32:34Mouflehmm
13:34:49adi|homehmmm.. i cant get any of the new fonts to work
13:34:55adi|homedo we know if they work at all on the recorder?
13:34:59Moufleneitjer do I
13:35:08Zagoruse alt6x10
13:35:13Moufle(I got an AJBR20)
13:35:15adi|homei just tried that on
13:35:25adi|homeit has to be translated to system.ajf right?
13:36:17Zagoryes
13:36:33adi|homehmmm then that one don't work for me
13:36:48Zagorfixed Makefile now
13:37:22adi|home../tools/bdf2ajf -f ../firmware/fonts/alt6x19.bdf -o system.ajf
13:37:23adi|homeright?
13:37:31Zagoruse the new makefile instead
13:37:41Bagder../tools/configure update
13:37:52Zagorno, it's a new in firmware/
13:37:53adi|homeyup
13:37:59Bagderoh
13:38:01*Bagder hides
13:38:38MoufleIt works at compilation
13:39:03Zagorgood
13:39:32Mouflebut not on my target :/
13:39:44Moufleno logo screen, no display
13:39:47adi|homeim testing too
13:40:16ZagorMoufle: how long since you tested? maybe your contrast setting is low
13:40:37Zagortry pulling a battery for a minute to reset the settings
13:40:47Zagorthe font patch doesn't affect the logo display
13:40:55adi|homehmm.. thats a prob too..
13:40:59MoufleIt has always been ok, and blind nav (pressing 3x play to get a song) doensn't works
13:41:05adi|homehow do you get _to_ the contrast setting.. if you can't see it :)
13:41:18Zagoradi|home: simplest is to reset the settings
13:41:31adi|homenods
13:41:32Zagorwe have to work something out about that
13:41:46Bagderperhaps pressing down a single key for N seconds
13:41:47Bagderin the main menu
13:41:58MoufleZagor: did you had it working on atarget?
13:42:03ZagorMoufle: yes
13:42:12adi|homewell.. we could just do on boot... have a function key act for contrast
13:42:16Zagorif your logo doesn't show, it's the contrast problem. not the font patch.
13:42:36adi|homezagor on your target..
13:42:44adi|homegeneral settings
13:42:54adi|homewhat is the location of contrast?
13:42:57adi|homehow many times down?
13:43:04Zagor4
13:43:15Mouflegonna put out a battery
13:43:50Zagormaybe some obscure key chord, like ON+MENU+UP/DOWN
13:44:18adi|homezagor.. to get to contrast from boot
13:44:20BagderZagor: hm, f1+f2+f3 could work
13:44:32adi|homemenu => down 4 => right => then up or down.. right?
13:44:43ZagorBagder: yeah, maybe. what for recorder?
13:44:48adi|homeyup
13:45:11ZagorON+MENU+PLAY or something
13:45:24Bagderyes
13:45:35adi|homewe would just do...
13:45:40adi|homeON+RIGHT
13:45:45Zagorsets it to default contrast
13:45:45adi|homeand ON+LEFT
13:45:58adi|homebe a fast way of setting contrast
13:46:06Moufle: now it says : Read acces error, Can't read from HD
13:46:12Zagoradi|home: those are too valuable key chords. we'll want to use them for something more important
13:46:19BagderZagor: it should probably be an all-settings reset
13:46:26ZagorMoufle: that sounds bad
13:46:29ZagorBagder: yes
13:47:17MoufleZagor: and it looks like it's the Orig firmware that says this
13:47:55ZagorMoufle: how are your batteries?
13:48:13Moufleok i think
13:48:31Mouflegrrr
13:48:32Zagorharddisk errors are often a sign of low batteries
13:48:47Mouflei will charge it for some hours
13:49:12Moufleanyway thx for the fixes, I hope you'll be able to modify/post my little HOWTO
13:48:55ZagorI think maybe a printed line in ../tools/configure is enough. "Don't forget to copy system.ajf to your archos!"
13:49:10Zagorwhen you select loadable fonts
13:49:17Zagornow that I fixed the makefile

14:14:46Zagornow I understand why it was so big. I thought I remembered it being much smaller before
14:14:58LinusNit was 500 bytes or so
14:15:15ZagorLinusN: apps/limits.h
14:15:21Zagorwhy not expose them in the open
14:15:38LinusNdo we have any more limits?
14:15:45LinusN10000 files playlist?
14:15:50Bagderyes
14:15:54Zagorthe playlist size is the only one I can think or right now
14:15:59Bagderwe probably have some more too
14:16:36Zagorlimits.h is a bad name, though.
14:16:39Zagorapplimits.h
14:16:53Zagorlimits.h defines type sizes
14:17:18Zagormight aswell avoid the collision

14:21:48Zagorthose mastercard spoofs are popular these days
14:22:02Bagder?
14:22:25Zagorthe "priceless" gag is from a mastercard commercial in the us
14:22:33Bagderoh
14:22:41*Bagder learned something
14:31:07LinusNWe just saved 50Kb of memory!
14:31:07LinusNand increased the max-file limit to 400
14:31:19Bagderreally cool
14:31:24Bagderdoes it work too? B)
14:31:28Zagorthe power of clever code
14:31:29LinusNof course not
14:31:43LinusNthe power of short file names
14:32:28Hadakathose "priceless" gags have been around for decades
14:32:39Zagoryeah
14:35:38ZagorBagder: what must be in CVS to work? I'm trying to make a fake CVS dir so I can run 'cvs update' from the project root
14:35:51Zagorit works at home, but I fail here
14:36:11BagderZagor: don't fake it, just checkout "." in a suitable directory
14:37:06Zagor..and if I don't want the www module? :-)
14:37:16LinusNthen delete it again
14:37:25Zagorno. next update puts it pack
14:37:30LinusNafter waiting for the huge devcon images
14:37:30Bagderremove it from CVS/Entries perhaps
14:38:36BagderI always get . and just ignore that I get the www too
14:38:55Zagorthe simple solution to my problem was to set CVSROOT in an env variable
14:38:56Hesi do checkout/update apps firmware uisimulator tools
14:42:46*Zagor is checking in ata_delayed_write()
14:45:14LinusNZagor: is there a way to spin up the disk without accessing the disk?
14:45:26LinusNlike a SPIN_UP command?
14:45:32Zagorno
14:45:44Zagorwhy?
14:45:52LinusNjust curious
14:45:56Zagorok
14:45:56Bagdertime to get an ice cream
14:49:05LinusNZagor: does it still say "Saving Settings"?
14:49:21Zagoryes, but so fast nobody sees it :-)
14:49:28Zagorso that can be removed
14:49:36LinusNit must be removed
14:49:40LinusNit is a lie
14:49:46Zagoryup
14:50:08LinusNZagor: is there a way to tell if the settings aren't saved yet?
14:50:18Zagornever was
14:50:23dwihno><))))8>
14:50:27LinusNof course it never was
14:50:31LinusNit is a new feature
14:50:51Zagortry it before you diss it, ok?
14:51:05LinusNwhy would i diss it?
14:51:13Zagorsounded like it last time :-)
14:51:23elinenbe|sleepI have a serious bug.
14:51:28 Nick elinenbe|sleep is now known as elinenbe (trilluser@pcp02254422pcs.wanarb01.mi.comcast.net)
14:51:37elinenbeI just grabbed the latest CVS
14:51:50LinusNno, i meant if there is a way to tell, and we could display it somewhere, like the 'info' screen
14:52:18elinenbethen I loaded onto an ajbr6k the fimware and the font
14:52:30elinenbe(this bug only occurs when I use the loadabel fonts)
14:52:33LinusNand *BOOOM*
14:52:38elinenbecorrect!
14:52:39ZagorLinusN: it's a local bool in ata.c: delayed_write. true if a write is pending
14:52:53elinenbeI get a few pixels on the left side of the screen.
14:52:55LinusNok
14:52:55Zagorelinenbe: copied the font?
14:53:09LinusNyes he did
14:53:10elinenbeyeah −− the default one that is made with the new makefile
14:53:24Zagorok
14:54:53elinenbea pattern repeates itself down the lefthand side (i take picture and upload)
14:56:48elinenbeis disk writing working properly now?
14:57:09Zagoryes, but the file system support isn't ready. only sector writing.
14:57:14elinenbeah...
14:57:17elinenbethat is a good start
14:57:33Zagoryes
14:57:51elinenbeno more RTC stuff?
14:58:01LinusNwhat makefile creates the system.ajf font?
14:58:11Zagorfirmware
15:00
15:00:59LinusNmy recorder is completely blank with the default loadable font
15:00:59 Quit mistax (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
15:01:16LinusNblank=dead
15:01:16elinenbewww.screamingapple.com/archos.jpg
15:01:23elinenbeLinusN: same thing here.
15:01:31elinenbejust check out that picture
15:01:51Zagorvery strange
15:02:08LinusNelinenbe: you are lucky!
15:02:13LinusNyou get pixels on the screen
15:02:16ZagorI can't test it myself now, the usb port on this computer has gone completely bonkers :-(
15:02:17elinenbeare settings now saved to disk (to the sector)?
15:02:18elinenbehehe
15:02:25Zagorelinenbe: only on players
15:02:29LinusNelinenbe: only on player
15:03:00elinenbewill that be coming for the recorder too?
15:03:03Moufleit looks like display was reversed by 90°
15:03:26Moufleyou can see n° artist song in the wrong way
15:03:26LinusNelinenbe: someday, yes
15:03:31Zagorelinenbe: yes. but currently recorder only uses rtc
15:05:25elinenbeZagor & LinusN: it would be nice for the recorder to use the disk too. That way my settings would be presistent. Currently every time I replace my batteries I lose everything :(
15:05:37Zagoryes, it will
15:05:47LinusNelinenbe: you are a minority
15:05:53Zagorhaha
15:05:56LinusNmost people keep their batteries in the unit
15:06:05 Quit Moufle ("Client Exiting")
15:06:18Zagorstill, with the delayed writing there is no real reason not to write to disk on recorder too
15:06:30Zagoralso, this enables true resume Real Soon Now
15:06:44Bagderwe should add it on the recorder too, indeed
15:06:47LinusNisn't the recorder able to be partitionless?
15:06:48elinenbesome of us have a 1 hour charger and use the jukebox 20 hours a day :)
15:06:57PsycoXuloh btw are directories supposed to repeat? i don't see any repeat option...
15:06:58ZagorLinusN: both player and recorder are
15:07:07ZagorPsycoXul: all playlists repeat
15:07:13Zagordirs are playlists too
15:07:14LinusNPsycoXul: the repeat option is always ON
15:07:18PsycoXuli see
15:07:38Zagorone of the we-really-should-fix items :-)
15:07:42PsycoXulcan we get that in the settings?
15:07:43PsycoXulheh
15:07:57PsycoXuland how about parse/filename fallback for no-id3 tracks
15:08:00LinusNnow we come back to the repeat problem...
15:08:18Zagorproblem?
15:08:26LinusNyes, what is repeat?
15:08:37LinusNfor playlists it is simple
15:08:46LinusNfor dir play it isn't that simple
15:09:07Zagorisn't repeat a fairly entrenched concept? cd players have had it since 1985 or something
15:09:11LinusNmaybe two settings, loop and repeat
15:09:22Zagorrepeat one and repeat all
15:09:43Zagornobody will understand the difference btwn loop and repeat (neither do I)
15:09:57LinusNok, so without repeat, the dir should play to the end of the dir?
15:10:02Zagorywa
15:10:03Zagoryes
15:10:11LinusNand with repeat it should repeat and loop
15:10:18Zagoryes
15:10:21LinusNok
15:10:29Zagorand repeat-one repeats the same song
15:10:42LinusNthe playlist code can't handle non-repeating lists today
15:11:34Zagori know. fixing...
15:11:52LinusNthere is a pile of interesting problems with that
15:12:03Zagoris there? explain
15:12:31LinusNit has to do with the negative index parameter being less than -1
15:12:50LinusNand that the user toggles the mode while playing
15:12:59ZagorI don't see the problem
15:13:58LinusNthe code sets the index to 0 when the negative index goes past the start of the list
15:14:33Zagorwe already fixed that. and without repeat, that is not allowed. so I still don't see a problem
15:14:45*Zagor is thick-headed
15:15:04LinusNif the user disables loop when wrap is already made you can't press PREV
15:15:44Zagorah, right. that old thing :-)
15:15:58LinusNFarbror Frej haunts us again
15:16:02Zagorhehe
15:16:25LinusNjust try to imagine all special cases, and test with farbror Frej
15:16:36Zagoryes
15:17:03LinusNby the way, the setting name loop_playlist isn't very good
15:17:03Zagorbuh, I can't test without working usb. I'll hold this work 'til tonight
15:17:14ZagorI know. it should be repeat_all

15:17:35ZagorMoufle: working better?
15:17:37LinusNZagor: do we really need repeat_one?
15:17:53Zagoryes, I think so. for completeness, if nothing else.
15:17:57LinusNok
15:17:59MoufleZagor: not at all, may I send you an error log via a /msg?
15:18:08ZagorMoufle: sure
15:18:45adi|homefrabror Frej?
15:18:47adi|homewtf is that?
15:18:59Lowfilerheya uhm
15:19:04Zagor20 second comedy tracks
15:19:13LinusNin 32kbit/s
15:19:16Zagorexcellent for testing many concurrent files in the buffer
15:19:30Lowfileris it possible that the battery-info is not really correct in v1.2
15:19:47Zagoryes
15:19:56LinusNeverything is possible
15:20:01Lowfiler:)
15:20:25ZagorLowfiler: 1.2 battery code is very early. it's improved a bit since then and is growing better day by day.
15:20:57Lowfilerok thats good. btw: its a nice idea to show it in %
15:21:55Zagoryeah. we like everything in % :-)
15:22:09Lowfiler i c :)
15:22:24Zagorjust remember, it's % voltage. not % battery time
15:23:05Lowfileruh ok
15:23:53Lowfilerdoes somebody know if its possible (ya i know - everything is possible :P) to play ogg-vorbis with the jbr
15:24:01LinusNhardly
15:24:01Lowfilerin the future
15:24:25Zagornot unless a miracle happens
15:24:27Lowfilerthen u have to flash the decoder
15:24:30Lowfilerhehe
15:24:42LinusNsomething like that
15:24:57LinusNthe RAM is probably to small
15:25:04LinusNfor both code and data
15:25:12Lowfilerhmm yes thats right
15:25:15LinusNin the decoder chip
15:25:23Hadakaoh, damn, I forgot the answer alread - does, or does not, gcc-3.2 have sh1 support?
15:25:33ZagorHadaka: dunno
15:25:37LinusNi'm not sure
15:25:46BagderI don't think anyone found out yet
15:26:02LinusNHadaka: go find out!
15:26:10Hadakahaha :)
15:26:59Lowfilerhmm the bug in archos-os 1.27d is nice - i use 5GB hd-space but it shows me that >18gig are free :)
15:27:33ZagorLowfiler: haha
15:27:46LinusNi use 5Gb and i have 35Gb free
15:27:49*Zagor can laugh, since we don't even try to calculate free space
15:28:10PsycoXulhey yeah when's rockbox gonna show disk space usage info? heh
15:28:15ZagorLinusN: really? I have about the opposite..
15:28:24LinusNPsycoXul: as soon as you have sent us the patch :-)
15:28:28ZagorPsycoXul: when you submit that patch ;)
15:28:29PsycoXul:p
15:28:34Zagorecho
15:28:41LinusNZagor: i exaggerated a little...
15:28:44*Bagder says "show us the code" and runs to hide
15:28:47Lowfiler[15:29] <LinusN> i use 5Gb and i have 35Gb free <<?? 40gb
15:28:55Zagor40 gig rocks
15:29:01LinusNToshiba
15:29:16Lowfilernice :)
15:29:21LinusNBagder: :-)
15:29:35Lowfilersome1 here who has jbmm
15:30:03Lowfileri read that it is a really buggy thing
15:30:14Hadakahmmh
15:30:20Zagortoo bad the 60gig draws so much power, or I'd buy one just for the bragging rights
15:30:39ZagorLowfiler: I wouldn't be surprised.
15:30:41Hadakawell, sh1 has not been obsoleted - so that that would mean that it is still in-tree atleast
15:30:55LinusNHadaka: good
15:31:07LinusNi think they lack a maintainer for the sh1
15:31:27Hadakayeah, it might be that it doesn't work, but atleast it isn't removed
15:31:42Hadakahmm
15:31:51HadakaI wonder when toolchain is going to be updated to 3.2
15:32:12Lowfilerbtw: can somebody of you build a option to leafe the backlight allways on?
15:32:41LinusNsure
15:32:57Lowfilerwould be cool
15:33:20ZagorLowfiler: just set it to 0
15:33:27Lowfilerhmm
15:33:31LinusNno, then it will be always off
15:33:39Zagorreally? try it! :-)
15:33:43*Zagor just did
15:33:48Lowfilerno its always on now
15:33:49Lowfiler:)
15:33:54Lowfilergreat!
15:35:13LinusNok, i remembered it wrong
15:35:33LowfilerThat will use a lot of power but i dont care
15:35:37Zagorhaha
15:35:38LinusNwhat did we say in the last backlight discussion?
15:35:55LinusNoff, on, 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10?
15:36:08Hesoff, on, 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10...30 at least
15:36:12Zagoryes, something like that. only don't stop at 10
15:36:20LinusNok, 30 then?
15:36:46Zagorwhy a low upper limit? give'em 250 it that's what anyone wants
15:36:59Hesright
15:37:01*Hes is gone, bye

15:38:04Zagorwell how about 1-10 in seconds, then 15,20,25,30,60,90,120,180 or something
15:38:14LinusNgood idea
15:38:16Lowfilerthat's good :)
15:39:04Lowfilerwill the next version include file-options? (delete, new etc.)

15:40:02Zagornope
15:40:11LinusNsilly sods
15:40:15Zagornot really
15:40:32Zagorit's not bad having user talk in there while we have more dev-talk on our list
15:40:48Zagorafter all, rockbox is now part of their world. so they discuss it.
15:41:42Zagorjust like the discuss cassette adapters, chargers, carrying cases and anything else
15:44:30Lowfileri think if you will add all functions (that are not integrated in rockbox) from the original firmware, no-one will use the original anymore
15:44:59Bagderwe will
15:45:02Bagdereventually
15:45:39Lowfilermaybe archos will contact u then :)

22:36:37freshmakerthanks, thought about that, but it's a bit ugly, though.

22:39:49rwoodthis is randy wood, i sent in the ROLO code a week or so ago - i'm looking to get a recorder to finish the task if no one gets to it first. is USB 2.0 worth the price difference between the 10 and 20?
22:40:01Zagorrwood: oh, absolutely!
22:40:33Zagorwelcome, by the way :-)
22:40:46Zagorand thanks for the rolo patch
22:41:00rwoodZagor: you are a smooth talker - i'll order today and should have it early next week - you are welcome on both
22:41:24Zagor:)
22:42:03HesI have a recorder 20... usb2.0 really rocks
22:42:41Hesdon't have an USB 2.0 interface on my work machine or laptop, it takes ages to transfer a large amount of data

22:43:00Heswhen compared to the home box which I bought the card for
22:43:36HesI got a cheap 5-port one which has the nec chip (first USB 2.0 interface chip that shipped)
22:43:52Heswhich is alright, although never reaches full USB capacity
22:44:10ZagorI have a nec chip too
22:44:32rwoodi'll look for that also
22:45:13rwoodby the way, has anyone tested rolo on a player?
22:45:30HesThe chip is probably on a huge amount of brand cards

22:51:35Zagorit will enable a kind of task switching behaviour between different applications. imagine an address book application or calendar that you switch to, and then back.
22:52:12rwoodHes: my best guess is that i am not getting the hardware back to an initialized state before transferring to the new app
22:52:25rwoodi don
22:52:37Zagorrwood: you should talk to Linus. he tried it and had some thoughts.
22:53:00rwoodsorry - i don't think that it will take that much to get it going
22:53:02Zagorfor one, you don't need to relocate. just put the loader code at the top of the RAM using a linker segment.
22:54:37rwoodZagor: i didn't want to get into changing the design - i just worked within the constraints as i saw them - i'll check in later so see if linus is around

23:03:48LearZagor: volume shortcut (menu+left/right) seems broken on the player in CVS. It just jumps to the next track.
23:04:23Zagorok
23:06:20Leartried disabling "discard first release event", but that didn't help...
23:06:33LearAlso, a status_draw is missing too.
23:09:32Zagorthe button situation is not optimal. i'm thinking of alternative ways to handle it.
23:10:41Learyeah, the ff_rewing vs. next/prev isn't the that easy to understan... :)
23:15:52Zagoryou have wps 1.70 right?

23:18:01freshmakerso, then. i have a new patch for the recorder that optionally leaves out screensavers and games. together with '-Os' the result is 95k -> 67k. is it worth it?
23:18:55Zagorjust a couple of #ifdefs ?
23:19:11freshmakeryup like so.
23:19:21Zagorsure, why not
23:19:25freshmakermostly in the makefiles
23:19:53Zagordid you make an option in tools/configure too?
23:20:27freshmakerthat's still todo. and then some tests.
23:20:32Zagorok
23:20:43freshmakerexpect the patch in one hour or so.
23:21:18Zagorok
23:21:31Zagori'll probably be in bed by then, but we'll see :)
23:24:18LearAh, the volume *does* change, the problem is that the release is considered to be a track change!
23:25:08LearLooked at the release handling in button.c. Looks a bit odd to me; should "BUTTON_REL | diff" really be posted on release?
23:26:17Zagoryes. diff says which buttons are no longer pressed (but was last time) and the REL bit says it/they were released and not pushed
23:26:37Zagorthe problem is most likely in wps
23:30:06LearI'm not entirely sure on that... In this case, left/right is released while menu still pressed; wouldn't that - with the "diff" post - generate e.g. a left | rel even, without the menu button? => track change...
23:31:00Zagorwell, it's simple elimination. the bug came alive today. wps.c was changed today. button.c was last changed the 7th. :)
23:31:35ZagorLear: yes, that's why there's a complex state handling in wps
23:31:41Zagorno next until MENU|REL
23:32:30Learotoh, one of the wps.c changes was changes in release mask (though that was yesterday), which could trigger a bug/shortcoming in button.c...
23:32:50Zagor:)
23:34:15LearI see no "if(menu_button_is_down)" checks in ff/rewind or prev/next...
23:35:48Zagoryou're right. that needs to be added.
23:35:54Zagorbutton.c still does the right thing
23:36:10Zagorthe event was a PREV/NEXT release
23:36:19Learcould be, yes. Just about to try that addition (should that be only for players?).
23:36:52Zagoronly players use MENU+PREV/NEXT for volume, so #ifdef that yes
23:37:01LearAnd that "if" should read "if (!menu...)"...
23:37:33Zagorif(!menu_button_is_down) mpeg_next()

23:38:41 Quit freshmaker ("ChatZilla 0.8.9 [Mozilla rv:1.1b/20020809]")
23:39:25Learthat'd better be "else if(!menu_button_is_down)" on the whole block, wouldn't it?
23:40:53Zagorright
23:41:11ZagorI see now ff_rewind bypasses the keylock. not very nice :)
23:41:19LearSeems to work too.
23:41:35Zagorthat keys_locked should be the outermost if
23:42:14LearBut only "bypasses" in the release handling, right? ff_rewind won't be set if keylock is on...
23:43:10Zagortrue. but the logic is still better if keylock is checked first.
23:43:27Zagorless complex to follow
23:43:28Learclearer, at any rate, yes.
23:43:34Lear:)
23:47:47LearOK, think I have something now; adds keylock check and menu button (for players)...
23:48:14Zagorgood
23:49:39Learargh; showing "Keylock ON" if locked on release when in menu isn't good. Another #ifdef...
23:52:35LearSeems to work now too. Generating patch...
