07:47:02midkyou shot it.
07:47:13ashridahCheeto: you may as well just mention it anyway. someone will probably see it in their buffer eventually.
07:47:14Cheeto_:P
07:47:19Cheeto_?
07:47:21Cheeto_oh
07:47:29Cheeto_yeah, shit I forgot about that :P
07:47:58Cheeto_I've been sitting here flinging parts of the archos around. I've got it gutted and lying in a ceramic butter dish on my dresser...
07:48:06midkmahahhahaha
07:48:35Cheeto_so anwyays, here's the story, Dory
07:48:57midkhere's the .... .... i'm going to sleep. :)
07:49:18Cheeto_One day last week, happy little me was preparing to give my happy little group project due at school when I turned on my faithful and happy little Archos and it spat out a happy little 'fuck you' error message at me
07:49:28Cheeto_ata -11
07:49:57midknot plugged in?
07:50:01Cheeto_I asked about it here, I was told it was either the hard drive failure or the power circut, but since the hard drive actually spins up at startup like it always did before, they were slightly stumped
07:50:15Cheeto_I've tried plugged in to the wall, to the computer, to both...
07:50:18Cheeto_anyways
07:50:44Cheeto_I pull out the hard drive and stick it in my laptop and run a check on it. The drive is fine, it can be read and accessed just fine and all the data is sitting happliy there
07:51:56Cheeto_just to be sure, I re-format it as FAT32, thinking that will allow it to at least connect to my computer as a portable hard drive and I can reinstall the OS onto it
07:52:06Cheeto_I have, btw, flashed the firmware to RockBox
07:52:30midkyep, this's happened to me before, but not as you tell it
07:52:43Cheeto_but alas! The evil dragons of hardware mystique have pissed upon my circut board and the problem still infests it's silicon valleys!
07:52:51midkhaha
07:53:19midkwell, recite your chester cheeto poem thing and i'll tell you how to fix it. ;)
07:54:46Cheeto_so I shall have no choice but to attemp to defeat them in mortal combat most dire! I shall attack them first by submerging them and the poor beleaugured circut board in holy water to cleanse any demons. Then I shall forthwit charge gleefuly and gallantly into the glade with my trust sword and bow and arrow at the ready! I will not hesitate to scrounge the devils from the board, even if I must put an arrow through it's metal heart!
07:54:52Cheeto_which I will...
07:55:18midk... you're going to shoot the board with an arrow?
07:55:26Cheeto_for tis nobler to surely die and surely kill the foul beasts than to live in their ungainly shadow~
07:55:30Cheeto_hell yes
07:55:43midki.. that sounds wrong..
07:55:45Cheeto_I've wanted something to kill with it...

07:56:12Cheeto_so anyways
07:56:33Cheeto_what do you suggest, good knight?
07:56:45midknice one- i used to be known as midknight2k3 :)
07:56:55Cheeto_Have ye a magical or blessed weapon to defeat these terrible fiends?
07:57:03midkhrm. it *is* a tricky one. not plugged into power?
07:57:14Cheeto_not the wall, but it can be
07:57:20Cheeto_the battery still powers it up, though
07:57:35Cheeto_shit aside from this error, it works fine (as far as I know)
07:57:53midkmay want to charge them if they aren't (obvious, and i don't think you're stupid)
07:58:35Cheeto_I've tried that, but when I plug in the ac cord, the little battery icon doesn't change like normal
07:58:58Cheeto_but if I have the battery in and plug it into the wall, it'd get reliable power, correct?
07:59:00midkmaybe your ac input isn't connected right
07:59:07Cheeto_or my USB input?
07:59:11Cheeto_that won't charge it, either
07:59:14midkwhat model is it?
07:59:26Cheeto_FM Recorder
07:59:38midkusb will charge, though much slower than the ac adapter..
07:59:53midkcheck your ac input.. is it connected to the main pc board or loose at all?
07:59:58Cheeto_nope
08:00
08:00:00Cheeto_solid
08:00:23midkso what happens if you plug it in?
08:01:08Cheeto_to the AC? It starts up the flash (I'm assuming, since the HD doesn't spin up) and plops the battery icon on screen, but doesn't show the normal filling of the battery icon
08:01:18Cheeto_like it's frozen waiting for something
08:01:23Cheeto_hmmm
08:01:34midkis everything connected? battery, hard drive?
08:01:38Cheeto_yeah
08:02:00midkit's worked fine before, even flashed?
08:02:02Cheeto_if I jerry rigged wires from the contacts inside to the outer contacts and ground, would that overload anything?
08:02:20Cheeto_it would periodically lock up while I mowed the lawn, but I always attributed that to vibration
08:02:31Cheeto_that went away whenever I did a hard reset on it
08:02:40midkinside contacts from the fmr? outside contacts from what?
08:02:46Cheeto_that battery door
08:02:51Cheeto_which, btw, is a POS
08:03:00Cheeto_I have to DUCT TAPE the battery door shut

08:05:04Cheeto_oh some poor cat had died on the street corner and no one bothered to bury him for days
08:05:18Cheeto_so I decided I was tired of lookin at 'im and buried his poor fuzzy butt
08:05:23midk:\
08:05:50Cheeto_stuffed him in a glad bag, threw him in a hole, sang 'Amazing Grace' and went in to play video games and have lunch

08:06:15Cheeto_whatever
08:07:21midkyeah

08:08:01midktry charging the batteries outside of t.. oh, right, never mind..
08:08:07Cheeto_oh right nevermind what?
08:08:18Cheeto_how would I charge the battery outside of it?
08:08:26midki was going to say charge them with a battery charger, but recalled it's fmr -> lith ion
08:08:34Cheeto_yeah, those can be recharged
08:08:44Cheeto_if I wanna jerry rig up a charger
08:09:03Cheeto_btw, I got 2 other error codes from it, usually when I fucked with something
08:09:12midkhmm, which?
08:09:13Cheeto_Error 31 and either 1 or 51
08:09:42midkneither of them mean much to me
08:09:46Cheeto_crap
08:09:55Cheeto_well...
08:10:06midkcareful with the jerry rigging, those batteries are pretty creepy
08:10:15Cheeto_at least I can upgrade my laptop's hard drive from a rattling, aging, 6gb to 20gb
08:10:19Cheeto_howso?
08:10:37midkhaha to upgrading :)
08:10:58midkwell, they've been known to sort of blow up at times (not due to tampering, though)
08:11:09Cheeto_O_O
08:11:16Cheeto_*pulls the batteries away from his face*
08:11:19midki've heard of two or three cases of them expanding to three times their size, breaking the casing and screen... :)
08:11:23Cheeto_*throws them out the window*
08:11:26Cheeto_DUCK AND COVER!
08:11:26midk(overnight or something)

08:13:40Cheeto_but it was prolly IDIOT
08:13:40midk:p
08:14:11midkhrm.
08:14:12Cheeto_my last C++ class was...oooooooooooh...a year ago
08:14:17Cheeto_and it was highschool for one semester
08:14:25Cheeto_and I've only TRIED coding mods ever since
08:14:37Cheeto_I manged to make a gun that crashed the game, thoguh!
08:14:44midkwhat game?
08:14:50Cheeto_I called it 'YOU FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT RIFLE!'
08:14:59Cheeto_Half-Life, Half-Life 2, UT2K4
08:15:07midki'll take the hl2 version please
08:15:16Cheeto_that'll be my single player epic
08:15:48Cheeto_which is currently about as far along as model scraps, a design document with an almost finished plotline and layout, and a German guy singing 'I went to the danger zone'
08:16:11midkhaha

08:17:06midk*blasts*
08:17:48Cheeto_I've got like 3 projects in my head right now, and 2 of em I'm actually TRYING to work on (though it's hard as hell with no time, no hardware, no team, and still trying to learn all new mechanics of the engines)
08:18:03Cheeto_hell I can do most everything BUT the coding
08:19:36midkcoding in c++?
08:19:46***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
08:19:47midkwhat kind of project exactly?
08:21:38Cheeto_well, for UT2K4 I wanted to make a sniper game. About 4-8 people per server, slower, more tense, hunting like gameplay with just rifles, pistols, and mines (hooo boy would those be fun). For HL2 I wanted to make my own sideline story to replace the one they made (with my own fun little conspiracy I'm actually kind of proud of), and a single player, 3rd or 1st person story with a detective trying to solve a murder mystery in the Chunnel
08:21:54Cheeto_shit, 4 projects
08:22:03Cheeto_I forgot about my zombie survival simulation for STALKER
08:23:06midki should try you at hl2dm some time
08:23:18Cheeto_I have
08:23:22Cheeto_I'm making a map
08:23:44Cheeto_a giant cargo dockyard. You get to have firefights on top of cargo containers dangling from cranes
08:24:30midkinteresting
08:24:33midki want to help.
08:24:56midkno, i want to beta test :)
08:25:09Cheeto_bastard
08:25:12Cheeto_:P
08:25:35midkor help, if you want it :)
08:25:50Cheeto_programming help is what I really need. I can't code or read code for shit
08:26:01midki can do c, but not c++
08:26:10midkcan't be that different, right?
08:26:16midk*5 weeks later* "wtf does this mean?!"
08:26:34Cheeto_I once opened a soruce code file, tried to sort it out, exclaimed loudly 'What the HELL is this guy doing?' Then noticed it was my code
08:26:54midkgood one, chester :) real slick!
08:26:54Cheeto_yes I'm aware some guy on bash.org posted that, too, but I actually DID that
08:27:21midkactually, you're right, i read that one
08:28:04Cheeto_HL2 is coded in C++, but thankfully my singleplayer thing wouldn't require much beyond making new classes and they'd be modifications of pre-existing ones, UT2K4 is done in it's own Unreal Script, but that has tutorials in it for learning that language, and it was based off of C/C++
08:28:19midkwtf is a class :p
08:28:24Cheeto_...

08:36:36zemidk: have you had much experience with girls?
08:36:39Cheeto_no I'm saying 'mentally stable' as in the old joke of 'pretty, mentally stable, available. pick 2'

08:59:48Josh_FileCan the Recorder only accept a 220 voltage?
09:00
09:00:10ZagorJosh_File: it much prefers 9-12 volts...
09:00:31CheetoI think he means incoming through the AC adapter
09:00:50Cheetolike how some places use 220, some use 250, some 110
09:00:52Zagoryeah, but that naturally is depending on the adapter and not the archos
09:01:03Cheetowell not everyone knows that :)
09:01:31Cheetojosh you might have to get a different adapter or a travel kit
09:02:00Zagoryeah, sorry. i meant to be funny, not rude
09:02:12Josh_FileCan I just buy a US>Australia Adaptor from my eletronics shop?
09:02:21Cheetonah, you were cute but smartass, I rate it about a 7-8
09:02:35Zagor:)
09:02:38Cheetopossibly
09:02:58Cheetoare you travelling or did you buy the archos in Oz?

09:03:21Josh_FileI buy from US, Ship to New-Zealand, Same Power standerd as OZ
09:03:45Cheetoyou know anything about the power standards in NZ?
09:04:11Josh_FileWell I know the Plugs and the Voltage is diffrent from the US
09:04:22Josh_FileOther than that no =/
09:04:24Cheetowell the plugs are just metal, that's not that important
09:04:27Cheetowhat's the voltage?
09:04:59Josh_FileIDK
09:05:08Josh_FileI'll check on one of my plugs now
09:05:51Cheetowell, I think the adapater will run funky if it doesn't get the right amount of voltage, but IIRC, most countries stick to roughly all the same voltage, so you *MIGHT* just need to get a different plug adapter to make it fit into NZ plugs
09:06:16Josh_File220v - 240v, 50V, 120 mA
09:06:33Cheetothat's a plug that you got in NZ? Should be fun
09:06:35Cheetofine
09:06:38Cheetodamnit
09:06:43Josh_Fileoops 220v - 240v, 50 Hz, 120 mA
09:06:43Cheeto2am typing skills suck...
09:06:57Zagoractually many modern switched adapters can handle 100-250 V input
09:07:03Cheetoyeah
09:07:18Cheetosince you can go from 110 to 220 in a matter of feet in just the US
09:07:34ZagorJosh_File: is that 120mA output at 9 or 12 volts?
09:07:36Cheetothough I'm wondering if the frequency difference will matter?
09:07:48ZagorCheeto: i don't know
09:08:02Josh_FileIDK
09:08:03CheetoI think he's reading a plug he got in NZ to get the info to tell us about the power standards they have, not the plug he's gonna plug into the archos
09:08:21Josh_FileYep Cheeto
09:08:26Cheeto^.^
09:08:33*Cheeto feels smarts!
09:09:03Zagorok. i'll grab this mornings first coffee
09:09:26Josh_FileDoes Rockbox support any Lossless codex's appart from Wav?
09:09:30Cheetohey Zagor, got any further insight about my problem? You asked me about soldering...
09:09:31CheetoJosh_File: Just get a new plug adapter to make the standard US one fit
09:09:40CheetoMP3 and WAV
09:09:42Cheetothat's it
09:10:20Josh_FileWhats the problem with other lossless standerds, they don't required to be uncompressed?
09:10:56Cheetothey have to be decoded, and that's done on a chip on the circut board
09:11:10Cheetoso without reprogramming that chip (which no one but Archos knows how to do) they can't add more formats
09:14:31Josh_FileDoes the Rockbox automaticly stop the music when the headphones are pulled out, I read somewere that the Ipod does.

09:15:22Cheetohmmm
09:15:25Cheetointeresting, cool idea
09:15:41ashridahJosh_File: it'd need support from the hardware to do that.
09:17:08Josh_FileJust wondering, does the Line out still play music when nothing is plugged in, you just can't hear it, or does it sense when somthings connected?
09:17:28Cheetono, like I said
09:17:37Cheetoit plays normally

Toshiba says it will ship an 80GB 1.8in hard drive in Q3 2005 - a year after it introduced the 60GB version that can currently to be found inside the iPod Photo. The 80GB HDD - model number MK8007GAH - comes in a 7.9 x 5.4 x 0.8cm casing. Toshiba will ship a 40GB version - model number MK4007GAL - that's just 0.5cm thick in the second quarte
09:19:07Cheetorespectively) 1.8in HDDs are 0.8cm thick, so the new drive should make for thinner mid-range iPods. Both drives spin at 4200rpm, offer an average seek time of 15ms and operate across an Ultra DMA 100 interface. They can take 500G operating shock and 1500G non-operating shock."

09:31:25ZagorJosh_File: it's for developers to spot mistakes in other builds than they tested
09:33:25Josh_FileHows the Mic on the Recorder, Do you need to stick it right next to your mouth, or can you use it to recorded coversations
09:34:28Zagorit's pretty sensitive. you can keep it on the table. however it will pick up the harddrive spinup noise, so for anything other than quick&dirty recordings an external mic is recommended.
09:38:50Josh_FileMy recorder should arrive in 3 weeks, I'm so excited

20:34:00ana57hi all
20:34:09quelsarukhi ana57
20:34:45ana57my recorder works but the display no more show anything
20:35:07ana57is it possible that is has himself unplug from its socket
20:38:08quelsarukhmm
20:38:36quelsarukafter installing a new rockbox version?
20:39:01ana57no changes in teh soft -
20:39:10quelsarukoh
20:39:23ana57SO I think it is possible it unplugs itself
20:39:25quelsaruki thought it could be the a "low contrast" effect
20:39:39quelsaruktry it anyway... just in case
20:39:40quelsaruk:D
20:40:07quelsarukit's easier to fix the contrast than to change display
20:41:07quelsarukoh
20:41:16quelsarukthere's no more blank screen bug
20:41:34quelsaruk(afaik.. at least that's what the faq says)
20:41:55quelsarukLinusN: somewhere here
20:41:58quelsaruk¿?
20:53:06ana57sorrz
20:53:13ana57I was busz
20:53:19quelsarukdon't worry
20:53:27ana57 is there a way to open the box to se if it is broken ;;
20:53:33quelsarukyeah
20:53:49ana57my is recorder 10
20:54:04quelsarukhttp://www.rockbox.org/docs/repairlcd.html
20:54:10ana57thanks
20:54:15quelsarukif it's broken.. that can help
20:54:28quelsarukbut... ask a hardware guru first
20:54:29quelsaruk:)
20:56:32ana57ok
20:57:48amiconnquelsaruk: What blank screen bug are you referring to? I didn't know that there was one...
20:58:00quelsaruka low contrast
20:58:03quelsarukbug
20:58:27ana57how could i increase the contrast without seeing the screen menu
20:58:34quelsarukhmm
20:58:41quelsarukwith the old FAQ you could know
20:58:51quelsarukwait and i'll tell you just in case
20:59:16ana57ok i wait
20:59:20quelsarukamiconn: sometimes the default contrast is too low for some displays.. you have to raise it.. or too high
20:59:25quelsarukor was...
20:59:26quelsaruk:d
21:00
21:00:17ana57how?
21:00:46quelsarukpowering my archos.. sorry
21:01:28quelsarukno batts.. arrg...
21:01:36quelsarukpowering my brother's one..
21:01:52ana57ok
21:02:28ana57But in mine i ve rockbox soft, but i did not rememeber which verrsion, so it is possible that mz version differs from zours, so the menu coulds differs
21:03:29quelsarukF1, Down, Down, Left, Down, Down, Left, Down, Down, Left, Down, Down, Down, Left, Up ( press Up a lot of times to raise Contrast...)
21:03:35quelsarukargg
21:03:41ana57ok i ll trz
21:04:04ana57but perhaps zou means down down right ???
21:04:13quelsarukyeah
21:04:15quelsarukupss
21:04:24quelsaruki don't know what i was thinking on
21:04:24quelsaruk:D
21:04:30quelsarukleft is right
21:04:30quelsaruk:D
21:04:59ana57it does not change anzthing, I think it is simplz disconnect from its socket ? or it is broken
21:05:00quelsarukmy brother's rockbox is version 2.2
21:05:05quelsarukmaybe
21:05:15quelsaruktry downloading and installing version 2.3
21:05:24quelsarukthat should reset all settings
21:05:33quelsarukto default ones
21:06:07quelsarukand if the display is ok.. that should repair the issue (as it's said... that bug doesn't exist in last version)
21:06:29quelsarukif not.. try that page i gave you
21:06:30quelsaruk:D
21:07:49amiconnWho's still running 2.2? That's a build from the rockbox stone age...
21:08:14ana57alread doenload the version 2,3 and does not siccess.
21:08:47ana57So I think i have to open it, and see if it was unplugged
