00:00:12zeekoethe FM + v2 recorders already have LiIon
00:00:18Smoothyea
00:00:21zeekoeand JBMM20, AVxx0
00:00:32Smoothdon't think Li-ion lasts as long as NiMH
00:00:36zeekoethat's why i like recorder
00:00:42Smoothyea
00:00:46zeekoeLi-ion lasts longer for same weight/size
00:00:54zeekoethat is, on one battery load
00:00:55Smoothget 10 hours on normal 2100Mah cells
00:01:10zeekoei think overall LiIon dies earlier, in 2 years or so
00:01:18Smoothyea
00:01:22zeekoelong-term
00:01:24Smooththats the problem that plagues the Ipod
00:02:01Smoothbut i must admit, the ipod does look great
00:02:14zeekoebut it's really expensive
00:02:18Smoothyea
00:02:18zeekoeand no rockbox
00:02:27Smoothi think you are paying for the kudos of owning one
00:02:38zeekoejust mp3 (or aac, whatever) player
00:02:40Smoothslap an Archos badge on an Ipod and I bet it will be much cheaper
00:02:47Smoothmp3, aac, wav

00:03:23Smooththat sort of thing
00:03:28zeekoeok
00:03:41zeekoei saw a test once, it said mp3 @128k was better than aac
00:03:48zeekoebut only a really small bit better
00:03:53zeekoeand wma sucked
00:03:54Smoothok
00:04:08zeekoebut that was at 128k
00:04:08SmoothAAC sounds better at lower bitrates than MP3
00:04:13zeekoeok
00:04:19zeekoewell
00:04:24kaboofabut i use 224->320 vbr anyway

03:06:06IcedDoghey, does it matter if it's a logical or primary partition?
03:06:08StealtheRthe drive fawked up right?
03:06:27StealtheRwell one drive must be master
03:06:31StealtheRthe other one must be slave

03:18:27StealtheRIceDog: i don't have a mp3 right now
03:18:45IcedDogno player?
03:18:48StealtheR:) i got here couple of days ago to ask for opions on a jukebox which i planned to buy
03:18:54IcedDogahhh
03:18:56tpelliottI upgraded my V1 recorder to 60 (55) GB
03:18:59StealtheRbut fellas in here told me it was a bad one
03:19:03StealtheRso i dropped :)
03:19:08StealtheRand station here since
03:19:12StealtheRhahaha my new irc home
03:19:29IcedDogArchos is nice can't beat having an open source community backing your product
03:19:43IcedDogBTW, those rubber bumpers were a bitch to maneuver around
03:20:07StealtheRyea
03:20:15StealtheRi was gonna buy the jukebox studio 20GB
03:20:22StealtheRbut someone said it ain't gewd
03:20:31tpelliottI would love to find a good case for my recorder and leave off those bumpers.
03:20:55IcedDogwhat capacity HD did your v1 come with?
03:21:05tpelliott20GB
03:21:20IcedDognice upgrade ;)
03:21:45tpelliottIs it true that those drives now go to 100GB?
03:22:09StealtheR:(
03:22:12StealtheRwish i got one
03:22:16StealtheReven its 5G
03:22:24IcedDognot sure
03:23:03StealtheRhey
03:23:06IcedDogwhen i took mine apart, a little piece of wire fell out...that was not reassuring
03:23:11StealtheRwho knows lots about laptop in here?
03:23:19tpelliottI love the V1 recorder because you can change the batteries.
03:23:26IcedDogturns out it wasn't anything important...maybe some piece of loose solder
03:24:02IcedDogI like the fact that I don't have to take my batteries out to charge them
03:24:24IcedDogbut the green batteries that came with the unit were terrible...they would get really hot when charging
03:24:38IcedDogthought my player was gonna melt
03:25:04IcedDogbought some fresh name brand chargeables, and it's been all good
03:25:26tpelliottEnergizer 2300mah batteries are great, and cheap.
03:25:55IcedDoghmmm, might have to try those...using 1850 right now
03:26:05StealtheRuse 2000mah
03:26:27tpelliottSame package, just updated capacity.
03:27:34tpelliottIf you have 2 sets of batteries, charge time is irrelivent.

12:50:46midklImbus, assuming you flash once a day it will last you about 273 years,
12:51:14midkbut that's not typically true, for one you archos will probably only last a few years - you'd have to flash constantly to get it to fail within the archos' lifetime

14:33:15[IDC]DragonI was wondering if it would simplify flashing if the initial file contains no Rockbox
14:33:29[IDC]Dragonbut Archos
14:33:35LinusNmaybe
14:34:02[IDC]Dragonso, basically, after initial flashing everything feels still the same
14:34:24[IDC]Dragon(a bit faster already, because of my boot loader)
14:34:45LinusNsounds fair
14:34:52[IDC]Dragonthen the user can upgrade to the Rockbox version of his/her liking
14:35:10[IDC]Dragonno messing with 2 versions, incompatible plugins, etc.
14:35:53[IDC]Dragonand I don't have to maintain that image
14:36:26LinusNsounds good to me
14:36:53LinusNdo you have to update the boot loader to recognize an empty rockbox image?
14:37:09[IDC]DragonI don't think so
14:37:35[IDC]Dragonwithout second image, it should boot the first
14:37:45LinusNgreat
14:38:11[IDC]Dragonso I can even make a file with only Archos image, saves bandwidth
14:38:44[IDC]Dragondunno if I ever tried, have to counter-check
14:40:19[IDC]DragonIf amiconn succeeds with running from ROM, the old topic of replacing the first image with a .ajz loader comes back
14:41:23LinusNis it really worth the hassle to run from ROM?
14:41:38[IDC]Dragonnot for me 8MB user
14:42:12LinusNwe gain 200kb or mp3 buffer
14:42:19LinusNof
14:42:24[IDC]Dragonyes
14:44:03[IDC]Dragonanother view at it: it could be a good exercise for portability
14:44:11LinusNsure
14:45:07[IDC]Dragonthe neo guys must have met this requirement
14:45:16LinusNyup
14:46:28[IDC]Dragonbut they only run a fraction of rockbox anyway

15:06:44jfabI accidentally dropped mine and when I go to turn it on the screen is blank with the back light on
15:06:54LinusNplayer or recorder?
15:07:04jfabplayer, sorry
15:07:12LinusNtry this:
15:07:29LinusNpush the display when you start it up
15:07:32jfabI took off the battery cover and when I take the battery out and push it back in, but not all the way it turns on no problem
15:08:16LinusNdo you hear the disk spin up?
15:08:43jfabtried that didnt do anything different
15:08:52[IDC]Dragonis USB working?
15:09:14jfabafter I remove, re-insert the battery to turn it on then turn it off it does the same thing
15:10:08jfabwhen I remove the battery it looks like there is a switch on one side not sure if that has anything to do with it
15:10:37jfabit only seems to turn on when the battery just barely touches the connections
15:10:51[IDC]Dragonthere is no switch
15:11:08[IDC]Dragonbut it turns on by default as soon as getting power
15:12:48[IDC]Dragonis the box generally working, with just the screen being blank?

17:36:49wileri think the hard disk seems to be powering off each time i turn on the unit
17:36:58wileranyideas?
17:37:27lImbushi wiler
17:37:38lImbusit may be some drained batteries
17:37:54lImbushave you any chance to charge the batteries outside of your unit ?
17:39:17lImbusit may be worn out contacts too. try to push the rubber bumpers together so the squeeze the batteries a small bit.
17:39:47wilerhmmm
17:40:04wilerwell i have only had the unit for about a week, i do have an externel charger
17:40:33wileraccording to the website the unit was new as well so
17:43:09lImbuswhat kind of unit btw ?
17:43:27lImbusrecoder, recoderv2 or player (as well as studio )?
17:44:48wilerrecorder
17:45:33wileri did not flash the unit only copied the files on and then removed them because of osme problems, is there anyway to make sure that we are infact loading the archos fermware?
17:46:42lImbuswell, if you did not flash, you did not change anything on the hardware, and if you deleted the archos.ajb (or whatever it's called) you can be pretty sure you "uninstalled rockbox"
17:47:21lImbusif it took approx 10 seconds to "boot" before it was ready, you can be sure you did not flash

22:36:36Smoothhi zeekoe
22:37:23Smoothi think that would be a great feature, an option to kill the status bar in the WPS and show it in the file browser
22:37:50Smoothwhat does everyone else think?
22:44:21kaboofai eat babies.
22:44:58Smoothi wonder what mas the Gmini 220 uses
22:45:36Bagderthe same as the recorder, iirc
22:46:03Smoothyea but the Gmini can play WMA and WAV, which the existing recorders can't
22:46:09Bagderaha
22:46:20Bagderdoes it even use a MAS then?
22:47:04Smoothit might
22:47:09Smoothmaybe just a different one
22:48:12Smoothor even it may use a Strongarm processor
22:51:32Smoothon the flashed boxes is there a way to make the charging instantaneous when plugging the charger in like the archos fw?
22:52:24scott666no. there is currently a bug in the charging algorithm that makes rockbox wait 1 cycle before charging
22:52:45Smoothok
22:53:09Smoothive found a way to "trick" the archos on the flashed boxes to charge via the Archos fw if the batteries are stone-dead
22:53:31scott666yup, f1 is the work-around
22:53:49Smoothyea, you hit f1+on, then quickly stick the charger in before the screen appears
22:54:18scott666you can hold f1 and plug in the charger
22:54:24Smoothyea
22:54:34scott666no on pressing involved
22:54:39SmoothI wondered if you can "de-flash" the box if required
22:54:55scott666assuming you backed up your original flash content
22:55:01Smoothjust wondered
22:55:16scott666but why would you do that??

23:07:45[IDC]Dragonplug the usb where you want to create one
23:08:07[IDC]Dragonthen it doesn't go into USB mode, but creates a file on disk.
23:08:35[IDC]DragonThis is a developer feature, for documentation.

23:13:58lodesihi
23:14:03BChi
23:14:50lodesidoes anyone know the size limitation for a plugin in rockbox?
23:14:55BC32k
23:15:01BC32768bytes
23:15:41lodesii'm not talking about the size of the buffer we use from a plugin
23:15:48BCthe latest gcc compiler is pretty good if you are getting close - gave me about 8% size reduction
23:15:49lodesibut about the plugin itself :)
23:15:56Bagderlodesi: 32k
23:16:24lodesiand the clock.rock ?
23:16:39lodesi75408 byte
23:16:48BCthat'll be the sim build at a guess?
23:17:00lodesimh.. yes
23:17:08Bagderthe sim has no limit
23:17:48Bagderit wouldn't make sense anyway
23:17:49lodesibagder: that's a good news
23:18:23lodesii thaught it could be my problem since my plugin is about 200k
23:18:58BCdo a make in the target dir and look at the size of the .rock
23:19:10BCif you are using my devkit, "dir" will help there
23:19:23BC(does ls -l)
23:19:47lodesibc: i did 'ls -l'
23:20:25BCi have dir.sh for bash and ls.bat for dos - lol
23:21:08lodesiwell, but i'm not using your devkit :)
23:21:35BChee hee
23:22:11lodesiso if the size doesn't matter ;), my problem are with the directory fonction
23:22:40BCsize will matter when you do a target build
23:23:00lodesino problem to compile, but i get segfault on them (unresolved symbols...)
23:23:06BCah
23:23:13lodesibc: size will matter later :)
23:24:41lodesiso do you have any idea?
23:25:30BCdoes it segfault in compile or execution?
23:25:41lodesiexecution
23:25:44Bagderunresolved symbols?
23:25:48lodesiyes
23:25:53Bagderthen you're using functions rockbox doesn't provide
23:26:08lodesibut they are in the plugin api
23:26:13BCi dont understand how you could get that error at execution
23:26:27Bagderlodesi: then access them with rb->XXXX() style
23:26:30lodesii neither understand :)
23:26:38Bagderthen you don't get unresolved symbols
23:26:54BCwhere does the error display?
23:27:03Bagderlodesi: you're using linux, don't you?
23:27:26lodesibagder:yes
23:27:40lodesiyes with the rb-> i have compilation problems
23:27:54Bagderthen sort them out
23:28:04lodesistructure has no member named `MYDIR'
23:28:18BCare you writing libs?
23:28:28lodesiat the declaration of a rb->DIR type variable
23:28:38lodesibc: trying to port sarien
23:29:01BClodesi: are you writing main/plugin/lib code?
23:29:10lodesiplugin
23:29:34BCokay, cos that is one of the long-standing bugs with lib development
23:29:38lodesiwith latest cvs source of course :)

23:30:47Bagderlodesi: but you can build all the existing plugins?
23:30:56Bagderso why is DIR a problem in your?
23:31:38lodesibadger: yes but no plugin already use dir fonctions
23:31:48wileri plan on upgrading the drive in my recorder are the instructions still appropriate for that as well?
23:33:07BClodesi: maybe you have hit the same problem as the libplugin code - take a look at my mail "more libplugin blues" I wouldn't wonder if the work-around may help you?
23:34:20Bagderok, I understand the problem now
23:36:42Bagderthere's a somewhat silly work-around possible
23:36:52Bagderlike this: dir = (rb->opendir)("/");
23:37:57lodesibagder:still the same error
23:38:03Bagderwhat error?
23:38:20lodesistructure has no member named 'MYDIR'
23:38:30Bagderon what line?
23:38:46lodesion line 2609 from my plugin :)
23:38:52Bagdershow me the line
23:39:05lodesi(rb->DIR) *d;
23:39:17Bagderuh?
23:39:26Bagderwhat'd that supposed to do?
23:39:30Bagderwhat's
23:39:40lodesiit's declaration , no?
23:39:54Bagderno, it should be just "DIR *d"
23:41:20lodesicompilation is ok now
23:41:35lodesibut i still ahve:
23:41:37lodesiundefined symbol: sim_opendir
23:42:32lodesiduring the execution
23:43:24Bagderthat function is in uisimulator/common/io.c
