#rockbox log for 2005-04-14

00:00:35rasheror maybe I'm totally missing something
00:00:39rasherwouldn't surprise me
00:02:26*rasher tentatively agrees not to break any United States laws on the rockbox forum
00:06:50rashererp
00:07:12rasheroh.. no, nevermind
00:08:43*rasher thinks
00:12:57rasheroh damn, this was entirely unsuccessful
00:19:19rasheralso, shouldn't the id3db be read when usb is unplugged?
00:21:49preglowwell, yes
00:22:24rasherthought so
00:22:28rasherthis doesn't appear to happen
00:22:53rasherat least, the tag browser gets VERY confused
00:23:18rasherhrm, someone in the wiki claiming RPSL is gpl compatible
00:23:25rasherI wish he'd get on irc
00:23:35rasher*waves* are you reading the logs?
00:24:12rasherand he forgot to unlock the topic ><

00:27:13preglowhelix stuff?
00:27:41rasheryup
00:27:48rasherit definately is not gpl compatible
00:28:31rasherthey claim it's a "compatible" license
00:28:41rasherbut that's just to confuse matters I think
00:29:12rasherit may be compatible from the RPSL's point of view, but not the other way round
00:29:26rasherafaics
00:29:36rasherand they even have a note to that effect
00:31:05preglowwell, what do they have that we can use?
00:31:43preglowi'm hard pressed to come up with codecs we haven't covered or can easily cover
00:32:05rasherthey have an fixed aac
00:32:10preglowmaad2 has that
00:32:13preglowfaad2 <-
00:32:20preglowand it's gpl
00:32:24rasherI guess we don't care then
00:32:36preglowi've even got it semi-working with rockbox
00:32:46preglowbut stopped when i understood i already have my hands full
00:32:55preglowi'm too easily distracted, that's one of my key problems
00:33:09preglowi fiddle with a million things when i should be finishing mad optimisations
00:33:17rasherHaha
00:34:36rasher What kind of comment is "it is tried and tested - Motorola use it in their phones" anyway?!
00:34:42rasheroh, maybe he meant the codec

00:37:30rasherhow did imdct_l fare?
00:37:36preglowi'm still working on it
00:37:42preglowplaying register allocator is not my forté
00:38:03rasherah, thought you had a working version back when you announced you were going to kill yourself
00:38:12preglowbesides, it's about 800 lines of arm assembler, don't expect it to be done in a jiffy
00:38:27preglowoh, no, far from it
00:38:46preglowi'm still spending time on doing stuff that should have been trivial
00:38:57preglowbut aren't, thanks to motorolas mac unit scheme
00:39:02rasherno pressure, just misunderstood you back then
00:39:29preglowno, that was just me ranting BEFORE i went to work, heh
00:39:42rasherah :()
00:40:32preglowlike
00:40:39preglowto invert an accumulator
00:40:43preglow"a = -a" style
00:40:50preglowi have to write something around ten lines of assembler
00:41:33rasherjesus
00:41:40rasherthat's... rich
00:42:11preglowno, more like fifteen
00:45:34preglownow, that's if i want full precision, luckily, it's quite a bit less if i'm willing to sacrifice eight bits of precision
00:46:11preglowthree lines :-)
00:46:20preglowi also like talking too much, tell me to shut up
00:46:38rasherHrm, you'll have to imagine that
00:46:55preglowdone

07:45:45rashermorning
07:45:49LinusNmorn
07:46:08Rickmorning
07:46:17rashercurious about the ogg playback issue.. any idea what's happening?
07:46:30LinusNguess i have to work on the boot loader a little
07:46:48LinusNthe 1.65 firmware is a lot bigger than 1.63
07:47:25LinusNso i might have to move the loader a little
07:47:32rashersome things being overwritten/moved and the iriver firmware not coping?
07:47:43LinusNprobably
07:48:06Rickhope that didn't break the "fixed" firmware's ability to update the firmware
07:48:06Rick;P
07:48:19LinusNno it didn't
07:48:20rasherit didn't
07:48:39LinusNthat's one of the thing i *did* test
07:48:43Rick:)
07:48:44rasherI've flashed back and forth to test it

07:58:21LinusNaudio dma
07:58:23Rickah
07:59:00LinusNprobably an ata related issue
08:00
08:06:04RickOh, I was meaning to ask
08:06:27RickI was searching for example spi code in rockbox, not many things were obvious... know where I could look?
08:06:53LinusNlcd.S
08:06:59Rickahh, that's probably why then
08:07:04RickI wasn't searching .S
08:07:13LinusNfmradio.c
08:07:25Rickthanks
08:07:48LinusNfmradio.c is probably the simplest
08:07:56Rickah
08:08:04RickI'm just looking to see if I can play with the remote
08:08:06Rickdisplay
08:08:11LinusNgood luck
08:08:15Rick:)
08:08:54LinusNdac.c is also an example
08:09:07LinusNno, sorry
08:09:27LinusNadc.c
08:09:33Rickah
08:09:41LinusNadc_scan()
08:10:03Rickis there currently a way in rockbox to tell if the remote is plugged i?
08:10:07Rick*in
08:10:14LinusNhmmm
08:10:35RickI assume that would be one of the problems with working with the remote
08:11:25Rickand i'm guessing the hardware handles remote keys automatically
08:11:29LinusNi believe i found a way last time i looked, but i'm not sure
08:11:39LinusNwhy would you need to know?
08:11:56LinusNexcept of course to save cpu
08:11:56Rickwouldn't it be a waste to draw to the remote screen if it wasn't plugged in?
08:12:02Rickyeah
08:14:14LinusNi'm not sure if we can detect it, but i'll see if i can come up with something
08:14:25Rickthanks for the help
08:14:35amiconnIs the cpu port pin where the remote resistor network connects also a pio pin?
08:15:16amiconnIf yes, it should be possible to switch it to output, output a 1, switch back to input and check whether it goes to 0 within a short time
08:15:49amiconn(Same way as I detect the presence of the ata power switching circuit in the archos player bootloader)
08:20:25LinusNthe adc is external
08:20:32LinusNan spi device
08:20:58LinusNbut there are other pins we can do it with
08:21:10LinusNthe hold switch and on key sense
08:24:22 Quit bobdbob (Read error: 60 (Operation timed out))
08:24:22RickI noticed when you boot the original iriver firmware it takes a couple seconds for the remote lcd to initialize or whatever
08:24:36Rickmaybe not a couple seconds
08:24:40Rickbut there does seem to be a delay
08:25:38LinusNthat hardly means anything
08:25:47Rickno idea
08:25:51LinusNthey just do things in a specific order
08:25:52*Rick doesn't know hardware
08:25:55Rickah
08:45:29*LinusN finds a really old bug in ata_perform_sleep()
08:46:31LinusNwonder if this has any impact on RLD...
08:50:17LinusNbah, false alarm...
08:51:28LinusNstill, there is a possibility that the ata driver may hang if the ata thread isn't scheduled fast/often enough
08:52:10LinusNnah

10:15:07LinusNright
10:15:50LinusNand also GPIO1, 50
10:16:01*Rick nods
10:16:19LinusNso we need to configure these correctly
10:16:37Ricki'm guessing that occurs in (soon to be renamed
10:16:40Rick) adc_init
10:16:43Rickhit enter a little too early
10:17:16LinusNyes, GPIO_FUNCTION controls whether the pin is a general purpose I/O or not
10:17:41Rickah
10:17:44LinusNso, bit 16 and 28 should be set to 1 in GPIO_FUNCTION
10:18:06Rickah
10:18:20LinusNand bit 18 in GPIO1_FUNCTION
10:18:39LinusN(50-32 = 18)

10:20:15rashermorning
10:20:26rasherIt is still morning!
10:20:41LinusNB4gder: moo
10:20:49RickLinusN: in the comment for the existing GPIO_FUNCTION, are the numbers referring to the actual bits, or value?
10:21:20Ricknevermind, silly question
10:22:40LinusNthe comment for GPIO_FUNCTION should read "GPIO16: A0" and "GPIO28: CLK"
10:22:45Rickah, okay
10:23:22Rickif I converted correctly, should be 0x10010000?
10:23:38LinusNlooks fine
10:24:18LinusNnow do the same for GPIO1_FUNCTION (GPIO50: Data)
10:24:24Rickyeah, just did that
10:24:52LinusNGPIO_ENABLE controls the direction of the port pins
10:25:04LinusN1 = output
10:25:12Rickfrom what I read when I went through the tomato spec, it only goes one way anyway, right?
10:25:17LinusNyes
10:25:45LinusNso you should write the exact same bits to the xxx_ENABLE regs
10:25:49Rickah
10:25:56RickGPIO1 too?
10:26:13austriancodercool.. looks like the remote lcd is working in the next days ;)
10:26:16LinusNall pins are outputs
10:26:30Rickah
10:26:32LinusNA0, CLK and Data
10:27:02austriancoderwill switch to linux to prepear my high-level driver :)
10:27:04LinusNjust copy the GPIO_FUNCTION statements and rename GPIO_FUNCTION to GPIO_ENABLE
10:27:18Rickyeah
10:27:29 Quit austriancoder ("CGI:IRC 0.5.4 (2004/01/29)")
10:27:30LinusNand the same for GPIO1_FUNCTION
10:27:56LinusNnow, GPIO_OUT controls the actual value to drive on the port pins
10:28:03LinusNand GPIO1_OUT
10:28:27Rickah
10:29:28Rickhow does that work?
10:29:52LinusNyou set the corresponding bit to 0 or 1 in the register
10:30:00Rickah
10:30:39LinusNnow, we have one small problem
10:30:54Rickfinding what register?
10:31:37LinusNwe are missing one vital signal, the Chip Select
10:31:45Rickah
10:32:22LinusNi haven't investigated it fully, but it looks like CS is on GPIO34
10:33:11Ricker, wouldn't that be GPIO1 then?
10:33:16LinusNyes
10:33:25LinusNbit 2
10:33:27Rick(what's the difference between GPIO and GPIO1?)
10:33:58LinusNGPIO is i/o port 0-31, GPIO1 is 32-63

10:34:03Rickah
10:34:24austriancoderre
10:34:26LinusNthe registers are only 32-bit, but there are 64 i/o pins
10:34:49Rickmakes sense
10:35:04LinusNdid you add CS to the GPIO1 settings?
10:35:27LinusNbtw, better rename A0 to RS to match the data sheet better

10:35:43 Quit rasher ("CGI:IRC (Ping timeout)")
10:35:45Rickwell, assuming it needs to be added to GPIO1_FUNCTION, yes?
10:35:57LinusNjust like the other bits
10:36:01Rickah, okay
10:36:09Rickwhat exactly does the chip select do?
10:36:28LinusNit tells the lcd controller that we want to speak to it
10:36:45LinusNthere may be several spi devices on the same bus
10:36:51Rickah
10:36:59LinusNand you select the device to talk to by asserting the CS
10:37:12Rickah
10:37:33RickSo would I note that just as 'Chip Select' or is there a better name?
10:37:44LinusNCS is common
10:37:47Rickah
10:38:13LinusNso you now have CS, Clk, Data and RS
10:38:31Rickyep.
10:38:42LinusNwe want CS to be a 1 to begin with, in GPIO1_OUT
10:38:59LinusN(it is active low)
10:39:09Rickwhat does active low mean?
10:39:25LinusNit means that the chip is selected by setting CS to 0
10:39:38LinusNlook at page 17
10:39:58LinusNi *assume* that GPIO34 is connected to /CS1
10:40:33LinusNthe diagram shows that the communication starts by setting /CS1 low
10:40:49LinusNbut we want it to be high before starting
10:40:58LinusNso we set it to 1 in the init()
10:41:15Rickah
10:41:35LinusNGPIO1_OUT |= 0x00000004 iirc
10:42:18Rickah
10:42:27LinusNok, are you with me?
10:42:29*Rick nods
10:42:55LinusNhaving CLK low might be handy as well
10:44:28Rickwhat defines low?
10:44:30LinusN0
10:44:31Rick0?
10:44:33Rickah
10:44:59LinusNjust borrow the existing line in adc_init() and change the bit number
10:45:04*Rick nods
10:45:41Rickguessing:
10:45:42LinusNremove the calls to adc_scan() and tick_add_task()
10:45:43RickGPIO_OUT &= ~0x00010000; /* CLK low */
10:45:47Rickyeah, did that already ;)

10:46:28Rick+d
10:46:52Rickchanged
10:47:01LinusNshould be 0x10000000
10:47:05Rickyeah
10:47:16LinusNok, not the init function is done
10:47:35LinusNlet's move to lcd_remote_write_command()
10:47:42RickI renamed it to lcd_remote_init, that's suitable?
10:47:44DMJCheh someone today accused me of writing rockbox's playback code
10:47:50LinusNRick: perfect

10:48:04RickDMJC: hehe
10:48:04LinusN:-)
10:48:25RickLinusN: I'm guessing it would be a good idea to update the macros?
10:48:29LinusNRick: we will now change the #defines
10:48:32LinusNyes
10:48:33*Rick nods
10:49:01LinusNwant to try yourself before i pat you on the head? :-)
10:49:22Rickalready done CLK and CS
10:49:26Rickwhat's DO?
10:49:29Rickand would I need it for RS?
10:49:38Rickand Data
10:49:46LinusNDO is Data Out
10:49:52RickAh, guessing that = Data
10:50:01LinusNactually no
10:50:10RickNo?
10:50:12Rickwhat's the difference?
10:50:20LinusNthe macros are named from the ADC data sheet
10:50:33LinusNwhere Data Out is the data from the ADC
10:50:35Rickah
10:50:44LinusNyou want DI_xx
10:50:48Rickah
10:50:52LinusNrename them to DATA_xx
10:51:01Rickokay
10:51:14LinusNand add similar macros for RS_xx
10:51:21Rickokay

10:56:37LinusNok, so now you have CS_LO, CS_HI, CLK_LO etc
10:56:41*Rick nods
10:56:52LinusNnow we can start with the actual communication
10:56:58LinusNpage 17 here we come
10:57:24Rickpage 17 is 'LCD DRIVER CIRCUIT', right?
10:57:24LinusNwith these preparations, all we need to do is follow the diagrab, bit by bit
10:57:44LinusNwait
10:58:09*LinusN is an idiot
10:58:24Rickguessing you were viewing the epson one?

10:58:55LinusNsorry
10:59:06RickNo problem
10:59:43preglowgood day
10:59:48LinusNpreglow: hi
10:59:55LinusNwe start from the left

11:00:09Rickof table 5-3?

11:00:41Rickah
11:00:42 Quit DMJC ("Leaving")
11:00:45Rickmy next guess ;P
11:01:08LinusNthe communication starts by asserting /CS1, i.e setting it low
11:01:17Rickah
11:01:24LinusNsee?
11:01:40Rickyeah, starting to understand what the diagram means now that you said that
11:01:55LinusNthis translates to a CS_LO statement
11:02:01Rickwhich is already there
11:02:05LinusNexactly
11:02:22LinusNbetter remove all the other statements btw
11:02:34*Rick nods
11:03:38Rickis SCLK CLK?
11:03:39rasherexciting, this is :)

11:04:31LinusNyou catch on quickly :-)

11:04:43RickLynx_: tomato spec is for remote lcd
11:04:46Lynx_ah, ok
11:05:03Rickhe's teaching me about coding spi
11:05:15LinusNRick: when we do this, we also need to look at page 50 for the actual timing, but let's ignore that for now
11:05:28Rickokay
11:05:38Rick(I'm guessing that's what the DELAY was for in the adc stuff?)
11:05:39LinusNso, we have set CS low, now what?
11:05:48LinusNRick: yup
11:06:02RickI'm not sure what two lines crossing each other mean
11:06:08LinusNsee the arrows on the SCLK graph?
11:06:12Rickyes
11:06:40Rickwhat does it mean? setting to low then hi?
11:06:42LinusNthat means that the value on the SID line is sampled on the rising edge of SCLK
11:07:03RickI sortof understand that
11:07:19LinusNthe crossing lines means "value change"
11:07:23Rickah
11:08:33LinusNok, we know that CLK is already low
11:08:37Rickyes
11:08:56LinusNso now we need to set the DATA pin correctly
11:08:56Rickso is the line for CLK 'upside down'?
11:09:04Ricknevermind
11:09:07Rickhehe
11:09:38LinusNwe see from the diagram that bit7 is to be transferred first

11:10:29preglowwhat's going on? remote lcd driver?
11:10:32Rickyes
11:10:33LinusNthe classical way of doing this is to convert the bit vaue to a boolean expression
11:10:36LinusNpreglow: yes
11:10:49preglowexcellent
11:10:58LinusNlike this:
11:11:08rasherI appear to be lagged from here to Siberia and back
11:11:17RickLinusN: er, so bit7 would be 0x1?
11:11:22LinusNif(cmd & 0x80)
11:11:31Rickah
11:11:33LinusN DO_HI;
11:11:33Ricknow I get it
11:11:38LinusNelse
11:11:39LinusN...
11:11:52Rickah
11:12:18Ricker, don't you mean DATA_HI?
11:12:20LinusNthen we shift cmd one bit to the left and do it all over again
11:12:27LinusNRick: of course
11:12:41Rickah
11:12:56LinusNwe better do a loop, since there are 8 bits
11:13:01Rickright
11:13:07Rickthat's easy enough
11:13:31LinusNok, in the loop body, we first set the data bit accordingly

11:14:00LinusNthen we set CLK high to let the lcd clock the data
11:14:35Rickah
11:14:56Rickshould the loop permanently shift cmd?
11:15:06LinusNyes
11:15:26Rickdoes CLK set DATA back to lo?

11:15:44LinusNCLK_xx only changes the CLK
11:15:53Rickso do we need to set DATA back to LO?
11:15:57LinusNno
11:16:34LinusNthe DATA value is only used by the lcd on the rising edge of CLK
11:17:21LinusNit can be any value in between
11:17:47Rickso what if the cmd bit is false?
11:17:47LinusNso, we set the data pin, rise the clock, and now what?
11:18:00LinusNRick: we'll come to that
11:18:02Rickokay
11:18:32LinusNso, to prepare for the next data bit, we should now set the clock low again
11:18:37Rickyes
11:18:53LinusNthe loop should now look something like this:
11:19:01LinusNif(cmd & 0x80)
11:19:03LinusNblabla
11:19:07LinusNCLK_HI;
11:19:10LinusNCLK_LO;
11:19:19LinusNright?
11:19:21*Rick nods
11:19:28Rickand i'm guessing a delay will go between the CLK's later
11:19:39LinusNyes
11:19:49*Rick adds a comment as a reminder
11:20:06LinusNso now we have transferred 8 bits
11:20:43Rickbut what i'm confused with is
11:20:58Rickonce you set DATA to hi it never goes back lo even if the bit is false
11:21:51Rickwell, assuming you start with DATA in lo
11:22:48LinusNmaybe you didn't get the idea with the if(cmd & 0x80)
11:23:01LinusNit should of course have an "else" clause
11:23:06Rickyes
11:23:17LinusNif(cmd & 0x80)
11:23:21LinusN DATA_HI;
11:23:23LinusNelse
11:23:25LinusN DATA_LO;
11:23:30RickI wasn't sure of that
11:23:34Rickyou said we'd get to that, ;P
11:24:03Ricknow it makes sense
11:24:19LinusNok, my bad, i thought you understood that
11:24:35Rickit's ok :)
11:24:51RickI notice in the diagram, when it gets to the next byte, it does something with RS
11:25:38LinusNyes, this is the Register Select bit
11:26:06RickWhat does that symbol mean in the diagram? (the −−<==>−− thing)
11:26:32Rickeither or?
11:26:39Rickeither path, even
11:26:42LinusNdrawing the signal level in the middle means that the value if the signal is irrelevant
11:26:49Rickah
11:27:01Rickso i'm sorta right, I think
11:27:11LinusNand the <=> means that it can be either 0 or 1
11:27:14*Rick nods
11:27:20RickThat's what I figured
11:27:50Rickwhat is control data?
11:28:04RickI assume display data is for the actual lcd display contents
11:28:05LinusNcontrol data == cmd
11:28:09Rickah
11:28:24Rickso would we need to RS_LO at the beginning of write_cmd?
11:28:31Rickor it doesn't matter?
11:28:43LinusNthe RS value is ignored until we transfer bit number 6
11:28:48RickOh, ok
11:29:12Rickah, now I get it
11:29:16Ricksorta
11:29:41LinusNso if we follow the diagram by the book, we should transfer RS only when we're transferring data bit 6
11:30:24LinusNbut since it ignores the RS value the rest of the time, we can just set it to what we want before starting the transfer
11:30:46Rickwhich is what I thought, sorta
11:30:47LinusNand the lcd will read it when we come to bit 6 in the loop
11:30:52Rickbut, how are you reading it as bit6?
11:31:24LinusNwell, the 6th bit, rather :-)
11:31:43LinusNmaybe i should get better glasses
11:31:52Rickit looks like the 8th to me...
11:31:56LinusNit is
11:32:01Rickhehe
11:32:11LinusNsilly me
11:32:11Rickjust making sure
11:32:14LinusNgood
11:32:18 Quit Aison (Read error: 145 (Connection timed out))
11:32:39Rickso will we need RS_LO ?
11:32:40LinusNso, all we need is to set RS to the correct value right after setting CS
11:33:16Rickassuming write_command won't be used for data as well
11:33:26LinusNthe data sheet tells us that "The serial data input is display data when RS is high and control data when RS is low."
11:33:32*Rick nods
11:33:37Rickthat's where I got RS_LO from
11:33:42LinusNso we set it to 0, i.e RS_LO
11:33:45Rickyeah
11:33:48LinusNgreat
11:34:05LinusNwe now end the transaction by setting CS high
11:34:11LinusNafter the loop
11:34:24Rickah
11:34:47Rickis that all we're sending?
11:34:49LinusNthis is not shown in the diagram, shame on them
11:34:54Rickbecause then it seems that the RS_LO doesn't matter
11:34:56Rickat all
11:35:02Rickbecause we never send an 8th bit
11:35:11LinusNwe do
11:35:21LinusN7..0 is eight bits
11:35:32Rickd'oh
11:35:34Rickmisread the diagram
11:35:42Rickmaybe I need glasses :P

11:40:41Rickhehe
11:40:59LinusNnote to self: rasher != Rick
11:41:00Rickrasher, you're confusing Linus :(
11:41:09rasherSorry!
11:41:12RickHehe
11:41:23LinusNboth are blue in my irc client :-)
11:41:30Rickah
11:41:45LinusNok, serial clock cycle
11:42:17RickI don't think on the diagram
11:42:27LinusNone cycle is the transition from low to high and back again
11:42:28Rickunless CYS is a typo
11:42:42LinusNCYS is a typo
11:42:45RickHehe
11:43:12Rickokay, so one cycle is transition from lo to hi in SCLK
11:43:25Rickwhat's Min mean?
11:43:29LinusNthe table tells us that the minimum time a cycle should take is 250ns
11:43:34Rickah
11:43:36Rickand what is ns?
11:43:41LinusNlo to hi to lo again
11:43:45LinusNnanoseconds
11:43:46Rickah
11:44:52Rickso how do we ensure that time?
11:44:59LinusNit also tells us that each phase of the clock must be longer than 100ns
11:45:17Rickah
11:45:35Rickphase = hi->lo?
11:46:03RickI think so
11:46:06Rickor lo->hi->lo
11:46:09LinusNthe clock has two phases, the low phase and the high phase
11:46:14Rickah
11:46:28LinusNor "period"
11:46:38Rickokay
11:46:43LinusNand in this table "pulse width"
11:46:56Rickis 100ns, I think
11:47:00LinusNyes
11:47:30*Rick thinks
11:47:53Rickso, thinking about this, we want a delay after CLK_HI and CLK_LO
11:47:57Rickright?
11:48:03LinusNso, when we set the CLK low, we must wait at least 100ns before setting it high again
11:48:11LinusNright
11:48:13Rickof 100s, maybe 150s for CLK_LO?
11:48:21Rick*ns
11:48:45LinusNexactly, we must fulfill both requirements
11:48:57Rickwould it be wise to go over that a little bit?
11:49:00Rickto be sure?
11:49:05LinusNsure
11:49:05Ricklike 110 and 160
11:49:16LinusNor 130/130
11:49:19Rickah
11:49:22Rickyeah, that'd work
11:49:24rasherNO! I WANT MY SCREEN UPDATE NOW!
11:49:28Rickrasher: hehe
11:49:30rasher(nevermind me)
11:49:43Rickso how do we delay time in nanoseconds?
11:49:47*rasher watches some avid gentoo user complain
11:49:53LinusNok, one CPU cycle is 8ns in 120MHz
11:50:07LinusNroughly
11:50:12Rickah
11:50:23Rick16.25 cycles
11:50:26Rick130/8
11:50:37rashergood luck waiting .25 cycle :)
11:50:40Rickhehe
11:50:46Rickwell
11:50:50Ricki guess we could just chop that off
11:51:48LinusNeach CLK_xx, DATA_xx etc takes several cpu instructions
11:52:05Rickokay
11:53:23Rickthat brings me back to the question of: how do you delay time in nanoseconds?
11:53:27LinusNmove #GPIO,%a0
11:53:35LinusNmove (%a0),%d0
11:53:45LinusNori.l #xxx,%d0
11:53:54LinusNmove %d0, (%a0)
11:54:06Rickah
11:54:18LinusNthat's a typical xxx_HI sequence
11:55:11LinusNthat's 8 instruction fetches
11:55:28LinusNplus 2 reads/writes to the port
11:55:41LinusN10 bus cycles
11:55:49LinusNs/bus/cpu/
11:55:53 Quit Aison (Connection refused)
11:55:53Rickah
11:55:54LinusNat best
11:56:07LinusNwe could read the cpu timing diagrams as well to find out
11:56:23Rickwell
11:56:31RickI wouldn't worry about that right now I guess
11:56:34Rickmaybe to optimize later
11:56:34LinusNthe point is that it will take *at least* 80ns to perform the DATA_xx statement
11:56:38Rickah
11:57:13LinusNand the if(cmd & 0x80) will take a few ns as well
11:57:53LinusNat least two instructions followed by a branch
11:58:17Rickso would that be around 100ns?
11:58:21LinusNyes
11:58:53LinusNso we have fulfilled the CLK low pulse width requirement
11:59:08Rickah
11:59:29LinusNnow let's see about the CLK high and cycle time requirements
11:59:33Ricker
11:59:37 Join Aison [0] (~hans@zux166-181.adsl.green.ch)
11:59:38Rickdo I have my stuff backward?
11:59:44RickI have CLK_HI after the if stuff
11:59:55LinusNthat's correct
12:00
12:00:06Rickso are we fufilling CLK_HI or CLK_LO?
12:00:20Ricklogical would point to CLK_HI, I think
12:00:27LinusNclk is low when we begin the loop, we then set the data pin and then CLK_HI
12:00:33Rickoh, true
12:00:42LinusNthat's the "low pulse width"
12:00:46Rickah
12:00:55LinusNthe time before we set CLK high
12:01:04Rickah, okay
12:01:10Rickthat clears it up
12:01:29rasherthink I'll go home now.. and find something to eat on the way
12:01:30LinusNwe now set clk high and then low again right after that
12:01:35rasherbye!
12:01:39Rickbasically
12:01:39LinusNrasher: bye
12:01:40Rickwell
12:01:43Rickwe also shift cmd
12:01:49 Quit rasher ("going home")
12:01:57Rickclk_hi, clk_lo, cmd <<= 1
12:02:01LinusNyes
12:02:32LinusNwe can see that we might set clk low again a little too soon
12:02:43Rickyes
12:03:04LinusNthe high pulse width needs to be at least 150ns
12:03:05Rickit would be wiser to shift before CLK_LO
12:03:13LinusNRick: exactly
12:03:15Rickto include the shift as part of the hi delay
12:03:21Rickrigh?
12:03:27LinusNRick: exactly
12:03:30Rickokay :)
12:03:37Rickso how long does a shift take?
12:03:52LinusNthe cmd value is likely to be in a cpu register
12:04:15Rickso fast?
12:04:24LinusNso it probably takes a single cycle
12:04:41Rickah
12:04:55LinusNi.e 8ns
12:05:00Rickah
12:05:17Rickand we need ~16cycles to get about 128ns
12:05:31LinusNso we need to insert a delay
12:05:34Rickyes
12:05:52Rick15 cycles should be fine
12:05:55RickI think
12:06:07LinusNthis is something we probably would want to code in assembler later on
12:06:15Rickah
12:06:29LinusNbut for now, lets do a DELAY
12:06:31Rickthe delay or the entire function?
12:06:38LinusNentire function
12:06:40Rickah
12:06:46Rickwell, nothing like a good prototype ;)
12:07:00Rickfrom what I saw in the old DELAY
12:07:07LinusNthe DELAY macro does an empty loop of 10 laps
12:07:17Ricki assume 10 = cycles?
12:07:26LinusNmuch more, i'm afraid
12:07:29Rickah
12:07:39Rickso how much is a lap?
12:08:41LinusNthe compiler is not that clever
12:08:46Ricktaking from what you said earlier...
12:08:54Ricki'm guessing it's more than an if
12:09:13LinusNeach lap would take about 5 cycles
12:09:18Rickah
12:09:26Rickso we want 3 or 4 laps
12:10:55LinusNthe shift takes 8ns cycle, the CLK_LO takes 80ns, right?
12:11:06LinusNs/cycle//
12:11:47LinusNso we would like to delay about 60ns
12:11:50Rickyou can include CLK_LO in that too?
12:12:17LinusNthe actual transition takes place at the end of the CLK_LO instruction sequence
12:12:23Rickah
12:12:32LinusNthe final write to GPIOx
12:12:45Rickmakes sense
12:13:29Rickhrm
12:13:30LinusNso two laps would be adequate
12:13:35Rickfrom this, we only... yeah
12:14:24Rickis the CS1 delays taken care of too, because of the looping?
12:14:34LinusNlet's see
12:14:37Rickand RS
12:14:41Rickthey are 150
12:14:50LinusNthe /CS1 setup time is 150ns
12:15:11Ricki'm not sure how to read that
12:15:21Rickbecause of the big line at the end that goes down through everything
12:15:48LinusNit means that the lcd might take 150ns to recognize the /CS1 change
12:15:58Rickah
12:16:38Rickhm
12:16:42RickI think it would
12:16:43Rickbecause we have
12:16:48Rickwell actually no...
12:16:52Rickwe should have like half of it
12:16:58Rickdue to RS_LO
12:17:04LinusNif we look at the diagram above, we see that the /CS1 setup time is defined as the time from CS1 low to the first CKL high
12:17:13Rickyeah, that's what confused me
12:17:24Rickyeah, I think we have it
12:18:03LinusNmakes sense, since all the lcd does is to wait for clk lo->hi transitions to sample the data pin
12:18:29Rickright
12:19:38LinusNthe logic inside the lcd is if(!CS1 && CLK_lo2hi) databit = DATA;
12:19:38Rickand RS is met too
12:19:42RickI think
12:20:34LinusNRS should be met by far
12:20:45Rickyeah
12:21:03LinusNthe only thing we have left is the CS1 hold time
12:21:36Rickah
12:21:50LinusNmeaning that CS1 should not go inactive until 150ns after the last CLK lo->hi transition
12:21:57Rickah
12:22:09preglowi wonder if imdct_l will frown upon me stealing eight bits of precision, using the accumulator extension bytes is major bother
12:22:29LinusNbut since we don't set CS1 inactive until after the CLK high pulse, we are home free
12:22:38Rickcool
12:22:45LinusNpreglow: you're ears will tell you
12:22:57LinusNyour
12:23:20preglowoh, i expect my ears will be perfectly fine with it
12:23:25Rickwhat would be a good way to test this?
12:23:30LinusNRick: time to celebrate the completion of lcd_remote_write_cmd
12:23:33preglowthe default imdct_l seems to loose much more precision than that
12:23:35preglowbut we'll see
12:23:37RickHehe
12:23:47Ricktake a look at the commands possible?
12:23:54Rickand choose something that does something obvious?
12:24:01LinusNRick: time to try to compile it
12:24:02preglowusing the extension bytes is going to make the coding painful on me, so i'll ignore them
12:24:06Rickah
12:24:07Rickthat too
12:24:20LinusNadd the file name to firmware/SOURCES
12:24:33*Rick nods
12:24:56LinusNi'll have to go to lunch now
12:25:12Rickokay
12:25:16LinusNi'll be back in <30 mins
12:25:20Rickokay

13:02:20LinusNthe prototype is void lcd_remote_write_data( const unsigned char* p_bytes, int count );
13:02:55Rickokay
13:03:09LinusNcopy the lcd_remote_write_command function
13:03:26Rickdone.
13:03:37LinusNwhat it does is write an array of display data bytes to the lcd
13:03:48Rickobviously we need RS_HI now
13:03:54LinusNexactly
13:04:04Rickfirst bit seems to be the count
13:04:10Rickbut what is /WR?
13:04:23LinusNare you at page 11?
13:04:28Rickyes
13:04:32LinusNpage 10 is all we need
13:04:33Ricklooking at the top most diagram
13:04:36Rickoh
13:04:51LinusNit's the exact same thing as the command write
13:04:51Rickokay
13:04:57LinusNwith RS_HI
13:05:03Rickahhh
13:05:04Rickokay
13:05:06LinusNand an outer loop counting the bytes
13:05:46Rickah
13:05:49LinusNso you create a local variable called, for example, "data"
13:05:53Rickokay
13:05:57Rick(basically a cmd replacement?)
13:06:07LinusNyes
13:06:21LinusNand transfer each byte in the array
13:07:04Rickyes
13:07:07Rickdone
13:07:26Rickhrm
13:07:43RickCS_HI should be done after both loops right?

13:08:04Rickall set then
13:08:05Rickyes
13:08:24LinusNok, next is lcd_remote_write_command_ex()
13:08:28LinusNwhich is a hybrid
13:08:40Rickokay
13:08:48LinusNvoid lcd_write_command_ex( int cmd, int data1, int data2);
13:09:04Rickdone
13:09:20LinusNi.e first send the command, followed by one or two data bytes
13:09:26Rickright
13:09:40Rickwell
13:09:46Rickshouldn't the data1 and data2 be unsigned char?
13:09:57LinusNthe second byte will be -1 if it isn't used
13:10:03Rickah
13:11:05LinusNso you could just copy the transfer loop 3 times and set RS high after the first byte
13:11:16LinusNand the third transfer should be optional
13:11:20Rickwhy not just call the original functions?
13:11:29LinusNbecause they flip the CS
13:11:34Rickoh, true
13:11:42LinusNnot a problem per se
13:11:49LinusNbut non-optimal
13:11:51Rickyeah

13:20:05LinusNit is automatically updated by cvs
13:20:17Rickditto
13:20:21LinusNit doesn
13:20:29Rickdoesn't what?
13:20:46LinusN't matter what you write in it, but the ending $ must be there
13:20:50Rickah
13:20:52RickI didn't know that
13:21:07Rickfixed :p
13:22:14Rickany comments? I gotta head to sleep now
13:22:15LinusNlcd_remote_command_ex() is not needed
13:22:23Rickoh, you told me to put that there
13:22:33LinusNtypo from my side
13:22:45Rickah
13:22:45*rasher applauds Rick
13:22:49Rickwell, removed
13:23:11RickI had started to make #defines of all the commands
13:23:15Rickwhile you were gone
13:23:17LinusNsaw that
13:23:33LinusNi /msg'd you
13:23:35Rickand I started doing the init part
13:23:37Rickokay
13:24:16LinusNi'll commit this to cvs while you sleep
13:24:21Rickokay
13:24:30LinusNhope it's been educational
13:24:35Rickyes, it has been
13:24:53RickI started a little snippet of what I could interpret from the diagram of the init sequence
13:25:04Ricklemme add that in a comment
13:25:46Rickdone, it's at the bottom
13:26:01LinusNsure, we must leave some work for austriancoder too :-)
13:26:07Rickhehe
13:26:59RickI *think* that's correct anyway
13:27:03Rickof what I had
13:27:12Rickwould that stuff be called in lcd_remote_init?
13:27:34LinusNsure, why not?
13:27:44RickI figured so
13:28:14Rickokay, that should be all the updates
13:28:17Rickgood night
13:28:47LinusNnite

14:55:20preglowhaha
14:55:25preglowi sometimes do that as well
14:55:34preglowLinusN: can't say i get it either
14:55:58LinusNit *should* be enough to pass a pointer to the stream.buffer

14:56:07preglowyes, indeed
14:56:13preglowand i don't understand why he uses this interface
14:56:19preglowlibmad also has a file callback interface
14:56:24preglowwhich i really think we'll end up using
14:56:27LinusNaha
14:56:29preglowthat's what _all_ the codecs use
14:56:36LinusNany docs online somewhere?
14:56:55preglowminimad.c
14:56:59LinusNaha
14:57:40preglowmusepack uses callbacks, libflac uses callbacks, everything uses callbacks
14:57:47preglowand it's not a bit way of doing it
14:57:58preglows/bit/bad, i suck
14:58:12LinusNoki
14:58:53LinusNi'll rewrite the plugin then
14:59:21LinusNi bet all this copying takes a great deal of cpu
14:59:36LinusNyou might gain a few % by using the callback api instead :-)
14:59:39preglowindeed
14:59:47preglowwell, that obviously also has to do copying
14:59:49preglowbut not so much

15:02:25preglowif we could make the callback api do stuff in place
15:02:30preglowthen maybe it'd work better
15:03:21LinusNi wonder if mad_decoder_run() keeps all state information between the calls
15:06:35preglowehh
15:06:41preglowlibmad had a funny interface
15:06:51preglowwould be nice if mad_decoder_run() returned once in a while
15:07:39LinusNwe can do that by returning MAD_FLOW_STOP in the output callback
15:07:45preglowahh

15:11:12Tangi tested with 1.65 rbx and the ogg skipped (without freeze)
15:11:19LinusNit's probably rockbox' fault
15:11:23preglowi don't know, i don't use 1.65

15:11:54Tang(indeed very strange)
15:12:43muzyou know the low level remote lcd drivers for the iriver, do they display anything yet?
15:12:49preglowmuz: untested
15:13:06preglowmuz: it was written a couple of hours ago
15:13:17muzrighty ho
15:13:19muzsorry
15:13:41preglowno need to be sorry
15:13:44muzanyway i tried it out, and nothing shows
15:14:10preglowunless you yourself have made rockbox use it, small wonder
15:14:17preglow'cause nothing uses it yet
15:14:23muzohhh righttttt
15:14:26muzdur
15:14:39ashridahhm. if i add *.png -k 'b' into the CVSROOT/cvswrappers file in a cvs repository (via checkout/in), that automatically makes it use -kb when adding .png files, right?

15:15:49muzthey cud have done worse
15:16:37BippyIriver could of done worse? how so :|
15:16:42LinusNif iriver did add some protection against modifying the firmware, they would have added a "modified firmware" message
15:18:16LinusNlooks like we can't use the mad_decoder_run() interface...
15:18:30BippyIs MP3 running realtime yet ?
15:18:37preglowwhat a foolish design
15:18:37LinusNyes
15:18:55BippySo if i used the latest daily build will i be able to play MP3?
15:19:00muzdoes that mean we cant decode mad?
15:19:01LinusNBippy: no
15:19:05Bippyomg :'(
15:19:31preglowi can't imagine the libmad people couldn't guess people would like to do other stuff than just decode and mpeg file
15:19:37preglowan
15:20:05Tangokay Linus
15:20:14Tangwas just an hypothesis
15:20:17Tang;)
15:20:28BippyConspiriacy
15:22:19BippySo my little monkeys, if MP3 is running realtime why isnt it working :|
15:22:40B4gderwe're not that "little" ;-)
15:22:50preglowbecause there's more to it than just decoding an mp3
15:22:51LinusNBippy: "running realtime" means that it is fast enough to run in realtime
15:23:01muzwait i think i can answer that: its cos there is no audio api yet
15:23:01BippyWell im 6'3 so most people are small, sorry if your not
15:23:35BippyDoes that mean you still have to implement the code or somthing into rockbox ?
15:23:41LinusNyes
15:23:52B4gderI'm 6'4
15:23:54BippyEasy or hard job ?

15:24:47muzdo you reckon we will see it any time soon?
15:25:04BippyWill the code be comitted to daily builds after its finished ?
15:25:10LinusNof course
15:25:16preglowwhy, it's a lot more fun if it just comes flashing out of the blue, isn't it?
15:25:24preglowcheck rockbox.org daily, it'll be there when it's out
15:25:24BippyNo
15:25:50BippyIve been checking since it was announced you were doing somthing last year in the iriver forum
15:27:40muzhey what are the chances of video playback on the iriver?
15:27:47preglowslim
15:27:51preglowthat is
15:28:00preglowdepends on what kind of video you mean
15:28:00preglowheh
15:28:05muzreally, i mean from a hardware perspective
15:28:06ashridahit's unlikely to look decent.
15:28:13muzthe same res as the screen
15:28:17LinusNwe have video playback on the archos
15:28:19preglowand i mean what codec?
15:28:21B4gderdoing similar as on the archos is quite possible
15:28:30preglowif you mean xvid, then i sure as hell am not doing it, heh
15:28:33preglowbut it can be done
15:28:37preglowit'll look like shit... but can be done
15:28:38muzrvf?
15:28:41LinusNyes
15:29:11preglowLinusN: are the archos displays more responsive than the iriver ones?

15:29:28LinusNthe hardware communication is *way* faster

15:29:57LinusNyes
15:30:17LinusNthe lcd itself is very slow
15:30:57LinusNso video on the H100 will be blurry at best

15:31:45BippyWhy the hell would you want video on an *MP3* player , dont even start with video

15:32:23BippyFun ? :| hm ok then

15:33:09muzwhats video like on the archos's? does it look good with the faster lcd?
15:33:21LinusNas good as you would expect
15:33:23BippyAlmost, but not quite
15:33:35preglowhaha

16:51:01HCli dunno
16:51:11HClit depends on whether we want to generally support remote lcds
16:51:13HCland i think we do
16:51:47austriancoderi think a generall support is not a bad thing
16:52:00bobTHCindeed too, imho
16:52:05HCland whether we'd want to support even more lcds
16:52:28austriancodermore then 2?

18:58:59CoCoLUSproblem is
18:59:08CoCoLUSthe radio only supports up to 1gb devices
18:59:15CoCoLUSsoooo... it won't play anything from the iriver

19:00:59CoCoLUSdoes rockbox recognize multiple partitions?
19:01:13CoCoLUSbecause if i would size the first partition down to < 1gb, maybe the radio would support the device
19:01:22HClno it doesn't.

19:04:36CoCoLUSi don't understand
19:04:51HClthe only problem with itunesdb is that it seems fairly cpu intensive...
19:09:12amiconnCoCoLUS: Rockbox *can* support multiple partitions. This is just not enabled for all hard disk devices. It is used on Ondio, which has both internal flash and an external MMC option. Rockbox can access both :)
19:09:43CoCoLUSi take it the original firmware only uses the first partition?
19:10:36amiconnHCl: The rockbox id3db format has another severe constraint: it needs to have a fairly small code footprint. The current format needs about 4 KB of code - how much would supporting itunesdb take?
19:10:55amiconnCoCoLUS: Guess so; (still) don't have an iriver :(
19:10:56HClamiconn: too much. i was mostly considering having a different format available on iriver
19:11:09preglowwhat'd be the pros of doing that?

19:16:36preglowthink they don't want people to reverse the protocol
19:16:51preglowsince false submissions would be a problem then
19:16:51amiconnI wouldn't put such info on any device/server/PC that isn't under my private control for sure.
19:17:12preglowwhat info, what music you listen to?

20:06:05Shagnarhad 140, brandnew but not working... he's too [faul] to bring it to the post so i asked him if i could change the HDDs
20:07:09HClthats a bit dumb of him...
20:07:16HClcause now you voided his warranty, most likely..
20:07:32Shagnardon't think so..
20:07:56HCli think your warranty is void when you open it up
20:08:38Shagnarthere are no secure-screws for that, so if you are carefully when opening it, that doens't matter
20:08:58Shagnari'm really lucky, else i would have got a H340 i think
20:11:11HClwell, you could just buy a replacement hdd.
20:11:12preglowi really don't think they can tell if you've opened it
20:11:24preglowbut yes, dapstore.com sells 30 gig hds now
20:11:27HClmaybe not, but technically, it would be voiding your warranty

22:16:59preglowstevenm: great, now make the midi2wav.c :-D
22:17:42Tang_Hum what's the PNG?
22:17:44stevenmpreglow, well.. the actual engine compiled. I now have to add the calls to write the wave file. Otherwise it all sits in a buffer in memory. And, I have no idea if this malloc() will work. I did get it from rockboy though..
22:17:55Tang_a new font?
22:18:04Tang_hi belgarath
22:18:05Tang_:)
22:18:06rasherTang_: a font I found and added some characters to

22:18:18Tang_okay thx rasher

22:19:00rasherrasher.dyndns.org/~rasher/snap.fnt">http://rasher.dyndns.org/~rasher/snap.fnt is a rockbox-version of it
22:19:15Tang_nice i'm gonna DL it
22:19:17Tang_:)
22:20:00rasher(place the bdf in fonts/ if you build rockbox yourself)
22:20:24Tang_mm i place it in font folder no?
22:20:36Tang_(i don't build it myself of course)
22:20:40rasheryeah, place the .fnt in .rockbox/fonts/
22:20:42Tang_i use the fnt?
22:20:46Tang_okay
22:20:49Tang_what i thought
22:20:51Tang_;)
22:20:55rasherthe bdf is of no use to the final rockbox
22:21:34Tang_okay
22:21:40Tang_just for devlopers?

22:23:17stevenmwoah, midi loader ran on iriver.. at least got as far as loading the file properly
22:23:30Tang_hum okay so the fnt won't work with actual build
22:23:39Tang_since the bdf hadn't been implemented
22:23:41Tang_?
22:24:00rasherTang_: oh no.. it's just that rockbox compiles .fnt from bdf files
22:24:23Tang_hum
22:24:34Tang_but if there is a fnt the bdf is useless no?
22:24:53rasherthey're both useful
22:25:23rasher.fnt is the final product
22:26:01Tang_okay
22:26:14rasherbdf is what the fnt is made from
22:26:16Tang_but the fnt work fby itself or not finaly?

22:26:26Tang_ah okay i understood
22:26:26HClon click
22:26:37Tang_sorry if i was hard
22:26:52rasherthe fnt is what rockbox needs
22:27:41Tang_okay in fact before youir last post
22:27:51Tang_i didn't understood the fnt was made from the bdf
22:28:08stevenmHey guys.. does the iriver Simulator run as fast as possible, or does it try to run as fast as the actual target ?
22:28:13Tang_tht's why i was wondering about the bdf usage!
22:28:15Tang_lol
22:29:11rasherstevenm: I think it just runs as fast as possible
22:29:14rasher*think*
22:29:58stevenmrasher, ah, ok
22:31:02Shagnaris there a tool to easy make own fonts?

23:17:05ZombiejeffHi all −− I've got a question about the code that I think should be pretty simple to answer...
23:17:27Tang_(when we begin like this
23:17:27preglownext time there'll be a ten-page exclusive, with the magazine shipping all of us two sweden on a two-day binge
23:17:33preglowZombiejeff: shoot
23:17:38Tang_then the question following will be very hard)
23:17:40preglowtwo = to
23:17:42Tang_lol$
23:18:07ZombiejeffI'm trying to get my recorder to tell me what I was listening to when it resumes but I can't figure out is rockbox stores that info in a variable or not.
23:18:42Tang_hey it talk about the iHP 120 port too!
23:18:56preglowTang_: yes, it says that's their new platform
23:18:59ZombiejeffI am not much of a programmer −− except in old AtariBasic so I'm trying to stumble around code I don't know well.
23:19:25Tang_:)
23:19:45Tang_okay, strange but is tal about v2.3
23:19:53Tang_and you're at 2.4 version no?
23:20:06BagderZombiejeff: it doesn't actually store it so that it is available in the resume screen, no
23:20:12BagderZombiejeff: but you could fetch it
23:20:26preglowTang_: the article is a couple of months old
23:20:42Tang_ah okay
23:20:58Bagderthe interview was made before christmas
23:21:06ZombiejeffThe resume is in tree.c, right. So I have to pull it from another file?
23:21:55BagderZombiejeff: resume info is a playlist index number and a playlist name, so you need to get the actual file name from the playlist
23:22:09Bagderand then possibly extract id3 data or whatever
23:22:40ZombiejeffEven just the m3u filename would be useful as I almost always use playlists...
23:23:03Bagder_that_ is part of the resume info
23:24:39belgarathquestion: will the iriver rockbox support the .rvf files?
23:25:27rasherHeh, Linus's first comment seems totally over the head of the journalist
23:25:38pabs?
23:25:43pabsdid i miss an interview?
23:25:50ZombiejeffSo I have to pull the file from an include? Again, I've only programmed in basic before, so I'm asking some really basic questions.

23:36:35stevenmHello. Is there a way to write from the simulator raw to the computer's DSP ?
23:36:54rashersince they only included öÖäÄ and a few others of the high-bit characters
23:37:01stevenmie, how do I tell the Sim to not try to open the sound device, then access it via symlink ?
23:37:54rasherspeaking of.. there was a patch that added sound support on linux.. I'm very curious about that
23:37:59stevenmah crap.. never mind. you'd need to somehow do IOCTL on it
23:37:59rasherdidn't apply though :(
23:38:14stevenmI made a symlink from /dev/dsp to ...../archos/dsp
23:38:26Bagderrasher: I think that needs to be remade to fit with the sound api anyway
23:38:38stevenmI hear NOISE because the DSP isnt initialized right
23:38:41rashertrue
23:39:05stevenmis there a way to sneak an ioctl or two into a plugin ?

23:42:32stevenmpreglow, I am getting weirdness.. or I must have accidentally made a typo somewhere. Light clicking on rockbox version yet perfect sound on PC version
23:42:35preglowstevenm: anywho, why not just dump to a file?
23:42:43stevenmpreglow, faster, for testing
23:43:11preglownot faster if you have to jump through flaming hoops to add ioctl support :P
23:43:43stevenmpreglow, nope.. already working.
23:44:23stevenmjust added 2 linux includes to the plugin and a symlink. then pasted the init code into the plugin. works pretty well
23:44:24preglowthen hooray!
23:44:42stevenmwhy don't we add real sound support to sim ?
