01:42:09RiESENHiRNiwhen i have the charger pluged in the backlicht is on, can i disable the light while charging?
01:42:23Scorpi don't know
01:42:41RiESENHiRNihmm...
01:42:47Scorpgive it a few mins, does it go off on its own?
01:43:02RiESENHiRNino, its is constatly light
01:43:06RiESENHiRNi+n
01:43:14Scorpoh
01:43:21Scorpwell sorry, but I can't help ya there
01:43:30RiESENHiRNi:(
01:44:13RiESENHiRNiany other?
01:45:07RiESENHiRNiit lits my hole room while charging *g*
01:46:50RiESENHiRNiit is safe to put the ajr in the archos-bag while charging? its quite a little bit warm or does this not matter?
01:47:36ScorpI wouldn't put it in, because it gets hot as it is
01:47:44RiESENHiRNiok
01:48:38RiESENHiRNithen i must cover the display with a piece of paper because the backlight
01:48:45***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
01:48:54RiESENHiRNihmm...
01:49:39PsycoXulhmm
01:49:41PsycoXuli think there's a way
01:49:55PsycoXulmy FMrec doesn't have it on while charging.. though i think it's got a menu option for it even in the stock firmware
01:50:16PsycoXulbut i think on the archos group on yahoo there's an FAQ that says how to turn it off for recorders
01:50:33RiESENHiRNihave u a link?
01:55:06PsycoXulnot yet heh
01:57:15PsycoXulhmm heh
01:57:36PsycoXulok it just says
01:57:36PsycoXulTo charge batteries with the screen light off:
01:57:37PsycoXul1. Turn on the Jukebox.
01:57:37PsycoXul2. Wait until the backlight turns off.
01:57:37PsycoXul3. Plug in the charger.
01:57:40PsycoXulheh
01:58:01RiESENHiRNiok, i will try it, one moment plz
02:00
02:00:28RiESENHiRNishould i then leave the archos "on" or should i turn it off?
02:00:45PsycoXulprobably doesn't matter
02:00:49PsycoXultry it if you like
02:01:01RiESENHiRNiok, i try to go "off"
02:01:54RiESENHiRNihmm...when i go "off" the light is back and there stand battery charging... :(
02:02:11PsycoXulah well i guess that answers that
02:02:43RiESENHiRNicharges it in the "on" mode because it does not give me any charging message when i plug the charger in when the archos is on?
02:03:07PsycoXulit shows a little plug doesn't it?
02:03:14RiESENHiRNimom
02:04:21RiESENHiRNiYES, ok works! thx for your fast help! :))))

19:03:38r0bhello
19:04:32 Nick r0b is now known as r0b- (jirc@sdn-ap-001ilchicP0413.dialsprint.net)
19:05:30r0b-does anyone know how to overcome the problem with the recorder 20: when I try to charge it charges for a few moments the just starts making a very quiet clicking sound
19:06:32Tschechowwhat does it say in the display when that happens?
19:07:05r0b-nothing
19:07:07r0b-the display is blank
19:10:39Tschechowhmm
19:11:08Tschechowdeplug the powersupply both from external power and the archos.
19:11:21Tschechowreplug it into the archos, but not to power.
19:11:24Tschechowdoes it come up?
19:11:27r0b-okay
19:12:05r0b-it started to but then died
19:12:14Tschechow(the recorder 20 is same hardware as the recorder 5, besides the bigger hdd?)
19:12:20Tschechowaeh, recorder 6...
19:13:04Tschechowhmm. it came to 3-4 of the bootup-progress-indicator-blocks?
19:13:20r0b-yes, three or four
19:13:28Tschechowand died during the head-sync-noises of the hdd?
19:14:07r0b-yes.. also if I just hold the "on" button it will click
19:14:16r0b-without the powersupply being plugged in at all
19:14:50Tschechowis that the same problem pattern as the one you originaly complained about? (the "doesnt charge" ...)
19:14:57Tschechowor did that look different?
19:15:09r0b-yes it's the same thing
19:15:33Tschechowso, make damn sure that your powersupply is plugged into a power-outlet with power and has contact in it.
19:15:34Tschechow:)
19:15:50r0b-but sometimes if I let it sit without being plugged in the charger for awhile, it will let me charge for a bit and I can play files for awhile too
19:15:51r0b-hahaha
19:15:52r0b-thanks :)
19:15:52DBUGEnqueued KICK r0b-
19:15:52r0b-hehe
19:16:12Jet8810hhey
19:16:18Jet8810webmind, yea, but im studying for finals :(
19:16:51webmindJet8810, well u can try and learn.. but dont think going to help much either way
19:17:09Tschechowr0b-: i searched _hours_ when that happened to me first time. ;)
19:17:38r0b-hehehe
19:18:07r0b-okay so it's actually two bootup progress indicator boxes
19:18:33r0b-I wonder if I need new batteries
19:20:23Tschechowi am cycling batteries into an "intelligent" charger once a month or so, makes them work some longer.
19:21:31r0b-interesting
19:49:09***No seen item changed, no save performed.
19:58:19r0b-well I found my quick charger, I'm going to charge the batteries that way and see if it makes any difference
19:58:36r0b-I wonder if maybe there is a connection that broke, maybe resoldering is in order
19:58:48Tschechowcant hurt. have you been using the deep-discharge thing on the archos?
19:59:13r0b-yes, when I started having this problem I turned deep-discharge on and I thought it made a difference
19:59:19r0b-but I guess that wasn't the problem
19:59:19r0b-hehe
19:59:28Tschechowyeah, also possible, have seen that a lot, but it usualy shows as sudden powerdown when applying pressure to the ear-plug or pressing the _sides_ of the unit.
19:59:50Tschechow(in that case its two grounding solder points middle of the long side of the circuit board)
19:59:57r0b-hmm interesting
20:00
20:00:27r0b-I hope I can fix this soon as I use my archos for recording voice-over for radio and television advertisements
20:00:32r0b-and I have some jobs to do hehe
20:01:02Tschechow(hmm, if the batteries are _really_really_ dead it could also develop the symptoms you described.)
20:01:11r0b-maybe that's it
20:01:18Tschechowtrying with a known-good set of batteries cant hurt.
20:01:30r0b-do you have any experience with the trickle charge option?
20:01:51r0b-I found something mentioned about it somewhere, I don't believe I ever saw it in a menu on the unit
20:02:02r0b-maybe it was a different model player
20:02:31Tschechowhmm, i have it in the menu somwhere.
20:02:45Tschechowsorry, i am kinda new to rockbox (tried it first time yesterday)
20:04:10r0b-no problem, I'm not a rockbox expert by any means
20:04:20r0b-I use it but am not familliar with it from a coding perspective
20:04:25r0b-maybe my software is older
20:04:32Tschechowmine says 2.0
20:04:49r0b-I don't even remember what version I'm running
20:04:53CtcpIgnored 1 channel CTCP requests in 0 seconds at the last flood
20:04:53*Tschechow looks confused ... where is the recorder with rockbox ...
20:05:04Tschechowah, i guess its really not 2.0 in this case. ;)
20:05:09r0b-hehe
20:05:19r0b-where are you from Tschechow
20:05:30Tschechowberlin
20:05:43Tschechow(the one in germany)
20:05:52r0b-I'm in beautiful downtown South Bend, Indiana
20:06:10r0b-about 90 min east of chicago
20:07:47r0b-good news is that if I can get this to work with the other charger, I have two sets of batteries
20:07:55r0b-and it won't matter if the power supply works or not
20:08:37r0b-as long as the unit will maintain a charge and I can record and playback
20:09:18Tschechow*shiver* :)
20:09:32r0b-hehe
20:09:49r0b-so are you a coder
20:10:06Tschechowno.
20:10:15Tschechowaeh. depends. not a rockbox coder.
20:10:28r0b-I'm not a coder whatsoever
20:10:29Tschechowbut i have written some code over the years, yes. ;)
20:10:35r0b-hehe
20:10:36r0b-cool
20:12:28Tschechowcurrent primary software project is Mnet, encrypted decentralized p2p software, open source branch (split in 2001 fom the comercial branch) of MojoNation
20:15:23r0b-is that like a music/filesharing system?
20:15:44Tschechowyeah. just the lawyerproof version of it ;)
20:16:36Tschechow(its encrypting both on-disk data and communications and makes it much harder to figure out who published a certain file)

22:15:45tracktheripperRealizer is a very clever plugin because it enhances quality by restoring the frequencies lost by the MP3 compression
22:19:28tracktheripperit does this by analysing the waveform and by a very clever system of algorithms and mathmatical equations it adds missing frequencies
22:24:12tracktheripperis anyone taking this in?!
22:24:22Hessnake oil 8-)
22:29:12tracktheripperpardon?!
22:30:33HesI honestly think it's genuine snake oil. And it can't be done in rockbox anyway (technically impossible for the time being).
22:31:08tracktheripper?!?!?!
22:32:41HesCan't be done since we can't see/touch the decoded audio stream since it's handled on the MAS chip which we can't program
22:32:59tracktheripper((bursts into tears))
22:33:17Hesand even if we could the 12 MHz CPU is already too slow for doing any serious DSP
22:33:36tracktheripperthat has given me a good idea for a feature request :-)
22:33:38tracktheripperhang on...
22:34:12Hesand I don't think it is nothing else than a fancy EQ with some marketing speech about very clever systems and algorithms and maths (which the MPEG algorithm already is).
22:34:30tracktheripperwell they charge a lot for it on the Realizer website
22:35:02HesYou could say that about a lot of software which isn't very useful or good.
22:35:14tracktheripperhmmm
22:35:51PsycoXulyeah
22:35:51PsycoXullook at windows
22:35:51PsycoXulthey charge a lot for it
22:35:51PsycoXuland it's utter crap
22:36:31Hesyeah... though windows actually does a lot of good for a lot of people.
22:37:01Hesnot that it's pricing mechanisms would be very right.
22:37:06tracktherippertheres nothing wrong with windows
22:37:07tracktheripper:)
22:38:02HesI spent hours today trying to get a home PNA ethernet controller work in a win98 system of a rather computer-illiterate friend
22:38:34Hesrip my hair off because it wouldn't give any information on what was wrong, no statistics/numbers/error messages on the network interface at all
22:38:46tracktheripperoh righty
22:38:51tracktheripperrequest sent
22:39:29HesI'll try to remember I don't know anything about computers when someone asks.
22:39:43tracktheripperlol
22:39:47tracktheripperi sent my feature request
22:40:26earHurtsanyone seen bagder?
22:40:57tracktheripperi dunno where badger is
22:41:35tracktheripperi think im gonna get beaten up one of these days :-(
22:42:33tracktherippergood request though :-)
22:42:42tracktheripper((overclock the processor to 1Ghz))
22:43:07 Quit tracktheripper ("Leaving")
22:43:13Hesoh well..

22:43:49tracktherippergot cut off
22:43:52tracktheripperim back :-)
22:49:22HesThat would be a hardware modification, cannot be done in rockbox software...
22:49:40Hesand I don't think I'd like the additional heat generation & power consumption
22:49:57Hesrather underclock & make the software more optimized to get more battery life 8-)
22:52:54tracktheripperyea
22:53:03tracktheripperhope Bjorn and co don't see it

23:10:16tracktheripperJett i know a way to make the Player display images
23:10:22Jet8810...?
23:10:55tracktheripperif u wanted to display album covers on the PLAYER WPS then reserve a character cell so you could squeeze an album cover into it :-)
23:11:05Jet8810haha
23:11:22Jet8810would be very visible too :
23:11:25Jet8810:)
23:11:29Jet8810why cant y ou do that on the recorder anyway?
23:11:32Jet8810techinically able
23:11:40tracktheripperwell yea its an area of pixels, a character cell
23:11:40tracktheripper:-)
23:11:47PsycoXuluh
23:11:49tracktheripper35 pixels should be enough....
23:11:51PsycoXulthe recorder doesn't need to...
23:11:59PsycoXulit's got a bitmap screen
23:12:03Jet8810right...
23:12:05PsycoXulyou can display images on it
23:12:05PsycoXulheh
23:12:07Jet8810so can you open .bmps?
23:12:10Jet8810oh really? lol
23:12:13PsycoXuluh
23:12:19PsycoXulhaven't you ever seen the rockbox logo on startup?

23:12:23Jet8810oh haha
23:12:26tracktheripperyea
23:12:27Jet8810I feel stupid now! :)
23:12:48tracktheripperand im saying the Player can display images if u could squeeze an entire cover into one of the Players character cells
23:12:58PsycoXulactualy
23:13:21PsycoXulthe player could display 10x14 (old) or 20x14 (new) 1-bit images
23:14:02tracktheripperjett would u miss my funny requests if i stopped sending them?
23:14:07PsycoXulusing all 4 (old) or 8 (new) definable char cells
23:14:15tracktheripperyea
23:14:26Jet8810heh track
23:14:27Jet8810yea
23:14:34tracktheripperif u want ill file that as a feature request psyco
