00:02:25hshahwho here has a machine without DevKit and cygwin on?
00:02:48BagderI do
00:02:53Bagderbut it runs Linux ;-)
00:03:03hshahbah
00:03:09hshahi need a windows one :p
00:03:48hshahi need someone to test out all the steps at http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/SimpleGuideToCompiling
00:06:55hshahwhere is everyone hiding 2nite?
00:12:39hshah...?
00:14:59*Bagder points to a dusty corner of the channel
00:15:07Bagderthey're all there
00:15:23hshahwell if someone reads this while I am gone (i am going now) please test it for me and email me at rockbox [at] hirenshah [dot] co [dot] uk
00:15:26hshahthanks
00:21:05 Join webguest90 [0] (n=3e4f4094@labb.contactor.se)
00:21:10webguest90I'll give it a shot
00:22:06 Nick webguest90 is now known as rasher (n=3e4f4094@labb.contactor.se)
00:22:39rasherHas anyone else gotten "I41: PDIR2FULL" while playing?
00:22:53HCli have, actually
00:23:02HClit happens in a dir with over 700 songs
00:23:08HCli've been meaning to get that fixed someday
00:23:14rasherOh-ah
00:23:23HClnot saying in general
00:23:27HCljust my dir has over 700 songs
00:23:30HCland it happens in there
00:23:38rasherI'll see about mine
00:23:53hshahaha people
00:24:02hshahcan someone help me test out the steps at
00:24:08hshahhttp://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/SimpleGuideToCompiling
00:24:15rasherYeah, I'm booting into windows as we speak
00:24:22hshahsomeone who hasn't got devkit or cygwin installed
00:24:23rashertaking its sweet time
00:24:32hshahthanks rasher :)
00:24:55hshahbah... its 11.30 and ive got to get up at 6 for work tomorrow
00:24:58rasherI've uploaded a fresh matrix.rock by the way
00:25:17hshahyeah i got ur email... and replied to it
00:25:21rasherit's still mysteriously broken
00:25:29rasherAh, so you did.
00:25:36hshahomg... i didn't realise it was u until u mentioned matrix.rock
00:25:37hshahlol
00:25:51rasherThe bug is completely crazy. It's not there in the simulator
00:25:58rasherwhich is just wrong with a capital w
00:26:14hshahyou mean "Wrong"
00:26:15hshah:p
00:26:30rasherThat I do
00:28:55*rasher ponders creating a grayscale matrix font
00:29:00rasherwould be nice
00:29:12hshahhttp://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=1268.0 <−−- that is fastest growing thread so far :)
00:29:24rasheranother thing that'd be nice is getting the damn bug fixed
00:30:22hshahwhich bug... the matrix one?
00:30:35rasherYeah
00:31:21hshahi would love the matrox screen saver to come on 5 mins after no buttons have been touched...
00:31:29hshah*matrix
00:31:44rasherScreen savers on a battery driven device is generally a silly idea
00:32:02hshahhmm... actually u have a point there...
00:32:10hshahbut it still would be cool to show people
00:32:15rasherBut yeah, seeing as I go days between charges
00:32:36rasherit would be cool
00:33:04t0mashi
00:33:06*t0mas is back
00:33:11t0masSlasher?
00:33:23t0mashow would you want to modify it?
00:33:25hshahsame... i have never actually drained the battery during use... i accidently left it plugged into my pc once... and the battery died then... other than that... ive never drained it
00:33:39t0masIt does already use the dimming code in place
00:33:48t0masbut that isn't working the way I want it...
00:34:32hshahwhat u talking about t0mas?
00:36:52t0masmy patch
00:36:58 Quit bagawk ("Leaving")
00:37:20t0masnamed "light organ" patch by Slasher
00:37:22t0masghehe
00:37:29t0masbeat detectioni...
00:37:34t0mas*detection
00:37:42t0masand flashing the backlight according to it :)
00:37:51hshahreally... WOW
00:37:52t0mas(eats cpu power)
00:37:59t0masbut it looks cool
00:38:03hshahi would still love to play around with it
00:38:13rashernow if this could somehow be exported to plugins..
00:38:13hshahi would sit in my room in the dark and have fun
00:38:16HClhows radio working nowadays?
00:38:32t0masrasher: what? bass peak data?
00:38:35rasherIt works. No presets due to missing keybindings
00:38:35t0masthat's easy....
00:38:43rashert0mas: yup
00:38:50t0masno problem...
00:38:52hshahrasher - im off to bed, but can u please email me after u test the guide
00:38:54hshahok?
00:39:00rashersure
00:39:05rashernot really expecting any problems
00:39:05hshahthanks
00:39:07hshahcya all
00:39:16rasherit looks pretty sound
00:41:11hshahsome people had problems earlier
00:41:19hshahso i just want to make sure it works first time round
00:41:25hshahi can't really test it on mine, coz i have parts of cygwin etc etc
00:42:39rasheryou should probably use fixed-width for commands (=foo= in WikiMarkup)
00:44:05hshaheh?
00:44:10rasherinstead of italics
00:44:46rasherI'll show you what I mean, hang on
00:45:27rasheror not
00:45:36rasherGHOD is cygwin ever slow
00:46:25rasherthere we go
00:46:25hshahive changed them all
00:46:34hshahused = = for commands
00:46:37rasherI have, unsurprisingly, a rockbox.zip now
00:47:49rasherBy the way, to avoid those invalid wiki links that happen for words that look like WikiNames, put <nop> in front of them
00:48:26rasherWeird, I don't see fixed-width commands
00:48:40rasherI don't even see an update
00:49:10hshahcoz i aint saved it yet :p
00:49:40rasherMakes sense.
00:49:47rasherThe guide worked
00:50:23hshahbetter?
00:50:46rasherMaybe you could split up the "compiling the source code" into smaller groups ("configure", "build" or something)
00:50:50rasherLooks more readable to me
00:51:00rasherand more obvious that it's something to type
00:51:02 Join zezayer [0] (n=jake@87.81.166.52)
00:51:30hshahok... will work on that tomorrow
00:51:42hshahbed time now
00:51:55hshahi need more than 6 hours sleep :p
00:52:19rasherNight
00:52:45Moosgood job hshah have a good night
00:53:02rasherI might try and change it a little
00:53:05***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
00:53:24rasherhshah: are you editing, or just forgot to release the lock?
00:53:46hshahi think i forgot
00:53:47hshahlol
00:54:19hshahahh fuck this stupid machine...
00:55:34hshahfor some reason the page refuses to load... i can't unlock it :
00:55:35hshahs
00:55:52hshahoff to bed now... sorry rasher... will try and unlock it in the morning
00:56:16rasherit'll happen in 28 min. no biggie

01:05:32cooleohi
01:07:55HClhello
01:08:11zezayerhi cooleo
01:09:03tvelocityanyone know of a linux tool for declipping?
01:12:25cooleooh hey zezayer
01:12:33cooleoi'm guessing you have an iRiver
01:13:00zezayeryer
01:13:13cooleoi'm banging about here, H300 owner, hopeful of Rockbox but I don't wanna pressure anyone round here :D
01:13:24t0mashehe
01:13:41t0masLinus will get the bootloader done soon...
01:13:50cooleoi realised how annoying it was when I went on the bloody forums
01:13:52t0masthen we'll fixup some error's left
01:13:59cooleoits just people wanting lots of stuff
01:14:12t0masand then it can boot.... and we'll have a lot of new work todo
01:14:12cooleothats cool t0mas
01:14:32t0masafter the bootloader, booting isn't a problem
01:14:35cooleoi can't believe you guys do this stuff for free
01:14:37cooleoits awesome
01:14:41zezayeri remember a few months ago waiting for linus to make the h140 bootloader, was well worth the wait tho :)
01:14:43t0masand I think audio playback can be done with the H1x0 code
01:14:52cooleodo you get any of the donations?
01:14:56t0masno
01:15:02cooleohehehe
01:15:04cooleoshame
01:15:11t0masit's used for the rockbox.org domain
01:15:12zezayerlots of the hardware is the same
01:15:17t0masand the BDM for linus
01:15:28rasherwould be fun to know the economics of the donations
01:15:29zezayerscreen will be the hardest but
01:15:31cooleoBDM?
01:15:42rasherAustriancoder bought a BDM as well
01:15:45t0mashi priced hardware to make the bootloader with
01:15:48rasheralso from the "Rockbox fund"
01:15:52cooleohave they still not confirmed the screen?
01:15:52rasherafaik
01:16:02cooleothanks
01:16:02t0masrasher: sure?
01:16:15rashercooleo: I think it's 99% sure
01:16:22Moosof course it's normal :)
01:16:22rashert0mas: pretty sure, not entirely
01:16:42cooleocheers rasher
01:17:09cooleoi was on a chase to see if I could get power from the screen, in parallel for some LEDS
01:17:19cooleoturned out to be incredibly hard! :D
01:17:24t0masyou can use the backlight pins
01:17:33cooleotrue
01:17:35t0masget the datasheet.... and use that pins?
01:17:45cooleoi'll have a look
01:17:46t0masor just lookup some VCC line?
01:17:50cooleothanks
01:17:54Moosgood night guys
01:17:55t0masthen you have a nice 5v
01:18:06 Part Moos
01:18:11cooleowhats a VCC line?
01:18:32t0masVCC is the "name" of the "input power" in most circuits
01:19:02t0masyou can check the datasheet of the LCD for example
01:19:05cooleowould that be on the diagram?
01:19:09t0massome pin will be named VCC
01:19:15cooleokk cheers
01:19:18t0masyes, it should be
01:19:23t0massome other will be named GND
01:19:42cooleook, well i'll try not to ruin my H320 heheh
01:19:48t0masghehe
01:19:57t0masok, try it with a multimeter first
01:20:06cooleothe HDDs got a bad rattle now, so I'm not that bothered
01:20:16t0masah, you can replace it...
01:20:17rasherDisassembling the h320 firmware seemed to reveal the LCD commands matching the ones in the datasheet for the one found
01:20:25rasherI believe.
01:20:27cooleoyeh i will replace the HDD
01:20:36t0masrasher: you know what controller the LCD has?
01:20:43rasherOr maybe that was the x5 firmware
01:21:10rashert0mas: Isn't it in the h3xxhardware.. something wikipage?
01:22:11t0masyes
01:22:12t0masfound it
01:22:13t0masHD66789R
01:22:21t0masif that's true it isn't hard to get it working... afaik
01:23:13rasherIndeed, seems like the major problem is the bootloader
01:23:40t0masbut until now I've only worked with the HD44780 simple text lcd controller
01:23:44t0masthat was really easy...
01:23:51cooleoheh
01:24:06cooleothe colour screen is gonna be fun
01:24:16cooleowork for you guys
01:24:23t0masI don't think that's really hard...
01:24:26 Quit ashridah ("Leaving")
01:24:28rasherMost of the work is done, afaik
01:24:42rasherTo support colour
01:24:43t0masif it works... there are just extra color bits in the display buffer
01:24:54cooleoyeh i saw it on the builds thingy
01:25:03t0masamiconn has already done a lot for the 4 grayscale thing we have now
01:25:06cooleoadded more support for colour
01:25:09t0masit's just that, but with more color bits
01:25:28 Quit ender` (Connection timed out)
01:25:42cooleoapparently Jens did this: More preparations and conversions for colour LCD support.
01:25:59cooleowhich sounds good to me
01:26:05t0masJens == amiconn ;-)
01:26:22cooleoLinus sounded very negative about AVI support
01:26:28cooleothats upsetting
01:26:39t0masAVI the video format?
01:26:43cooleoi think everyone was expecting movies on the H300
01:26:48cooleoyeh the vide
01:26:50rasherI don't see the point in using avi
01:26:55t0maswell... movies might be possible
01:27:02t0masbot the avi format is a hard format to implement
01:27:05rasherYou're not going to be able to play ordinary files anyway
01:27:07cooleooh, i see
01:27:14t0masit can contain almost any type of video...
01:27:16rasherYou're going to be transcoding, might as well do it into something simpler
01:27:18cooleoso it will play movies?
01:27:22t0masmaybe
01:27:28cooleothats good news
01:27:49cooleoi suppose i was just jumping to silly conclusions
01:27:56t0masan avi file can contain 1000s of codecs
01:28:02cooleoyeh
01:28:09t0masso you would have to write a fast enough divx, xvid and may other codecs
01:28:12t0masthat would be mad...
01:28:20cooleoiRiver did it somehow
01:28:26cooleoonly 10 fps though
01:28:28rasherWell you could just only support xvid-in-avi
01:28:28t0masand I don't think we can get it to realtime
01:28:44t0masthen still... iRiver didn't get it to realtime
01:28:49rasherI don't think we could do xvid better than 10fps
01:28:52t0masI don't think we will
01:28:54cooleoheheh
01:29:03cooleoi don't think it would be worth the effort
01:29:15t0mastranscoding to rockbox format
01:29:22cooleogod knows why they didnt do something else
01:29:25t0masthat's the way to go
01:29:38cooleolike their own format with a piece of converting software
01:29:50t0masyes
01:29:54t0masthat would be better...
01:29:58cooleoactually i bet they just stole it from the PMP players
01:30:00t0masbut it's not good for your commercials...
01:30:02cooleowhich play AVIs
01:30:03rasherwell, the rockbox format isn't compressed
01:30:21t0masrasher: true... we would need a new format for large video's
01:30:24t0mas*videos
01:30:24rasherrockbox video on h320 would be huuuuge
01:30:29cooleohehe
01:30:42cooleoisn't it all worked out for the Archos players?
01:30:46rasherYeah
01:30:49cooleoi thought they played video?
01:31:21rasherThey do
01:31:33cooleoare the files massive on them?
01:31:40rasherNot too bad
01:31:44cooleohow would it be different on the H300
01:31:50rasherMore colours, larger screen
01:31:55cooleoif Rockbox is kinda universal
01:32:38rasherI suppose you could watch 34-greys 128x64 movies on the h320, but that'd be silly
01:32:55cooleoheh
01:33:09cooleoso just speculating here
01:33:18cooleowhat do you expect the fps to be like?
01:33:29t0mas> 20
01:33:32t0masif we do it right
01:33:35cooleoif you don't know then thats fine
01:33:39t0masbut that would cost a lot of diskspace
01:33:39cooleo20!!
01:33:42rasherIt's 67fps on archos
01:33:51cooleoreally!?!
01:33:56rasherBecause that's the refresh rate of the lcd
01:34:03t0masyeah...
01:34:15t0masbut... with audio... in full color... 20 would be a good guess
01:34:17t0masmaybe 30
01:34:20cooleosurprisingly 10fps looks good on the H300 little screen
01:34:29cooleoso anything more would be great
01:34:29t0masbut not really much higher (wouldn't be any use)
01:34:41cooleonah 20 would be fine i'm sure
01:34:50cooleoaren't movies only 30fps?
01:34:59t0mas25
01:35:03cooleoor is that something else that i've got confuse
01:35:04t0masdepending on the format
01:35:14cooleooh no, im not that mad :D
01:35:15rasherThat or 29,97 or something silly like that
01:35:25t0masNTSC is 29,97
01:35:30t0masPAL is less
01:35:34rasherwow, I remembered
01:35:34t0masand a normal number
01:35:41t0masNTSC is 29,9753.....
01:35:45rasherHaha
01:35:53rasherMan, ntsc is a riot
01:36:18t0masit's sometimes 23,97....
01:36:25t0masPAL is just 25
01:36:39cooleowe europeans are sensible
01:36:41t0masno weird numbers
01:36:59t0masNTSC = Never The Same Color :P
01:37:11t0masstupid system... weird framerate...
01:37:20cooleoPAL = Perfect and lovely
01:37:23cooleohehehe
01:37:24rasherOf course the yanks would be using it!
01:37:31t0masghehe
01:39:02cooleowhats your specialties then?
01:39:20cooleodo you do specific parts of the work?
01:39:29cooleoor just anything that needs doing?
01:41:01t0maswell...
01:41:14t0masI'm not "the" programmer around here
01:41:24t0masI just do things I think I can do... and I like
01:41:37rasherI don't really do much. I'm not much of a coder. I try and accept simple patches and discuss higher level things
01:41:39t0masthe wps graphics was something I wanted to have personally... and it was doable
01:41:58cooleoheheh
01:42:05t0masbut the codecs were to difficult for me
01:42:46cooleoit seems like Jens is the graphics expert
01:42:55rasherI try helping people so the ones with talents won't have to spend their time
01:43:03cooleohehe
01:43:09cooleothats what i'd do
01:43:14cooleoif i could even do it
01:44:00t0masJens is the graphics expert yes... he could've done the graphics wps too
01:44:01cooleo;)
01:44:02t0masif he had time
01:44:12cooleoah ok
01:44:34cooleoi love the custom WPS thing
01:44:34 Quit edx ()
01:44:37cooleoit really rules
01:45:03rasherI'm still hoping for someone to implement a more powerful conditional thing
01:45:23 Join Sucka [0] (n=NNSCRIPT@host81-156-155-174.range81-156.btcentralplus.com)
01:45:26cooleowhat will that do?
01:45:29rasherinstead of the simple %? in place now
01:45:37t0maswell...
01:45:54t0massomething like %if(codec = MP3)< something >
01:46:03rasherYeah
01:46:13rasherExcept I'd think a case-like thing would be more useful
01:46:20t0masyes
01:46:53t0masI've been discussing a good syntax with someone from here
01:47:06t0masthe one who wrote the first conditional image hack
01:48:08t0masDave Wiard
01:48:15rasherHow about "%#xx<foo:bar|baz:qux|quux>", where xx is the field, and foo and bar are the values
01:48:24rasherquux is the "default case"
01:48:44t0mashm...
01:48:49cooleohmmm
01:48:52t0mashe was thinking about a more readable syntax
01:49:09cooleolike real words! ; )
01:49:16rasherThat's a lost case on WPS already
01:49:21t0maslike real scripting languages
01:49:42 Part zezayer
01:49:51t0masbut it's time to go to bed
01:49:52rasherI was thinking simple to avoid having to extend the wps language too much
01:49:53t0masc u tomorrow
01:50:12rashernight

07:20:45amiconnGood morning
07:22:06midkhooray! good morning rockboxers!
07:22:38LinusNyo d00dz
07:23:13LinusNmidk: i haven't seen you for quite a while
07:23:47midkLinusN, true.. i've not been around irc for the past few months. :)
07:24:24midkjust taking a break, doing other things.. etc. :)
07:25:04LinusNoh, i've heard of that...i believe it's called "have a life"
07:26:01midkoh, that! i've heard of it too.. unfortunately i didn't try anything that radical. :(
07:26:16LinusNyou scared me for a moment there
07:26:53midkit's okay.. i'm here now.. it's alright. if i ever try the elusive "life" thing, i'll be sure to let you all know and take a few people with me.. hooray! :)
07:29:55LinusN:-)
07:30:40*amiconn is undusting his sh1 toolchain
07:31:04amiconnBuilding binutils 2.16 and gcc 3.3.6 under cygwin...
07:31:11midki should be doing such a thing, i haven't bloated clock.rock to the 32k limit yet. :)
07:32:14amiconnmidk: When rockbox starts working on iriver H3x0 get one, then try to fill plugin ram on it ;)
07:32:15LinusNmidk: you have 768k on the iriver :-)
07:32:25amiconnYou'll have 768KB to fill...
07:32:38amiconnLinusN: :)
07:32:39midkmaybe next i'll do fading or dissolving menus/screen transitions... or perhaps a method to design your own clock border!!! ;)
07:32:46midkhaha. hmm.
07:33:14midklet's see... desperate times call for desperate measures... :)
07:33:36midkmaybe a few selectable animated backgrounds based on some very complex algorithms. :)
07:33:54LinusNdamn, i just can't reproduce the AddrErr that so many people complain about
07:34:00midkincluding a physically accurate explosion that loops.. and perhaps some sort of plasma design.. hmm.. :)

07:37:59LinusNi believe i used 6.3 once
07:38:21LinusNtry it
07:38:53amiconnBah, compiling gcc 3.3.6 throws a heapload of warnings
07:43:13LinusNah, i finally made it crash

08:10:10amiconnLinusN: Btw, what is the problem with the keymapping in the FM screen?
08:10:48amiconnI wouldn't think this would be hard, since it was possible to make it work on the Ondio, with significantly less buttons...
08:11:09LinusNyes, i could set it up to use it like the ondio
08:11:43LinusNthed problem is that i wanted to make use of the joystick puch, and that conflicts with the menu callback
08:11:49LinusNpush
08:12:04LinusNduplicate case values etc
08:12:15LinusNthe button mapping is a mess
08:12:47LinusNpossibly because i chose to use the menu code for the preset list
08:14:30LinusNbut i guess i could put the presets in the menu in the meantime
08:15:04LinusNbtw, i miss the radio simulation in the sims
08:15:15amiconnThe only thing not working on the Ondio is the screen freeze, which would be somewhat needed
08:15:34LinusNi think the peak meter should be removed
08:15:50amiconnThe radio chip is so close to the display that even the philips chip picks up some noise
08:16:03LinusNit generates interference on the archos and eats cpu on the iriver
08:16:20amiconnI'm thinking about a special slow-transfer mode in the lcd driver for use during radio operation
08:16:33LinusNmaybe
08:40:07LinusNah, fm radio simulation restored

10:40:42hshahwhen playing a track and on WPS, you press the joystick down... and it opens up the last folder u were in... i want it to go to the file that is currently being played

10:43:00LinusNhow would we like to bring up the presets in the fm screen?
10:43:12LinusNi suggest joystick-hold
10:43:29hshahi agree with that
10:43:33amiconnI did not yet try fm on iriver, so I have no opinion yet
10:43:40hshahit should bring them up as a list
10:43:49LinusNbut how to add a preset?
10:43:50hshahif possible
10:43:55LinusNit does
10:44:15bobTHChi folks !!!!
10:44:17LinusNhold play?
10:44:29hshahsounds good to me
10:44:59bluebrother^how about a "add new" in the preset list?

10:45:40AEnertiaHi all
10:45:45hshahone more question... when viewing the files after pressing the joystick down, lets say you are in 2 folders deep and you press the joystick left to get to the root, i want to be able to press left once more to get to wps...
10:45:54AEnertiaI just found a good game if you want to minimise procrastination:
10:46:02AEnertiahttp://www.nomorewhales.com/register.php?ref=2583
10:46:06LinusNhshah: yuck!
10:46:25hshahLinusN: why?
10:46:50LinusNjust a gut feeling
10:47:06LinusNAEnertia: what does that have to do with rockbox?
10:47:15AEnertiaNot much admitantly.
10:47:35AEnertiaI do however have a question regarding iriver port
10:47:42LinusNshoot
10:47:50hshahLinusN: I am just so used to that from the iRiver firmware that i always try and press the joystick left and wonder why it doesn't work, and then remember I have to press the play button
10:48:00AEnertiaI'm sorry this probably came up in the mailing list and I missed it.
10:48:12AEnertiabut the h10's are no go right because of the chipset?
10:48:23LinusNAEnertia: pretty much
10:48:49AEnertiaI just ask because I notice that the h10's are selling like hotcakes and are very 'fashionable'
10:49:06LinusNhshah: and i would probably be annoyed if one extra left would take me away from the browser
10:49:13AEnertiaHows the h3xx stuff comming btw?
10:49:48LinusNAEnertia: i got a dead h320 yesterday, i will slaughter it tomorrow and start making schematics
10:49:57AEnertia=-)
10:50:07AEnertiaWhy did it die?
10:50:20LinusNi have prepared my other h320 for my bdm
10:50:30LinusNAEnertia: i dunno
10:50:42AEnertiaso it is possible it's not dead?
10:50:49hshahLinusN: would that modification be hard to do? mebbe someone could make a patch for it... i would but i can't do c at all :s
10:50:56LinusNit's alive except that it can't talk to the hard drive
10:51:02amiconnLinusN: Trying gdb 6.2.1 now...
10:51:03AEnertiagoing on the number of 'Dead' archos units that come back to life by themselves
10:51:15AEnertiahrm...
10:51:35LinusNAEnertia: i bought it for the sole purpose of slaughtering it
10:51:52amiconnhshah: I agree with Linus here. Also I think we shouldn't care about how the iriver firmware does this or that
10:51:54AEnertiathat's good , hopefully it's just a dead 1.8inch drive ehh =-)
10:52:08amiconnFor me, navigation in the iriver firmware is pretty illogical
10:52:19hshahok then guys... ill just have to get used to pressing play :p
10:52:23LinusNAEnertia: no, it's not the hard drive, i tried with another one too, just out of curiosity
10:52:40amiconnI always have to find my way to firmware update (that's the only thing I use the iriver firmware for)

10:57:16mbrI attaches an updated patch yesterday
10:57:19mbrdoes it work?
10:57:33hshahoh rite... lemme see
10:57:41mbrI'm not sure if this patch is too "hacky"
10:57:55LinusNmbr: i haven't tried it, but the code looks pretty straightforward (although somewhat complicated)
10:57:56hshahits a great patch... it makes my WPS so much tidier
10:58:11hshahi can vouch for it... it works a treat :)
10:58:22LinusNmbr: it could probably benefit from a comment or two
10:58:25mbrI'll upload an more current patch in a minute
10:58:57hshahmbr - according to the sourceforge page, u haven't updated the patch
10:59:03LinusNlike commenting what the code that merges the strings is there for
10:59:03hshahit doesn't work with the current build
10:59:11hshah(the patch file doesn't work i mean)
10:59:17hshahthere is nothing wrong with the code
10:59:34mbrOK so I add some more comments

11:04:35hshahpatches fine
11:04:41hshahgreat work mbr
11:05:17mbrOK, then I'll add more comments and upload a new one to the patch tracker.
11:13:35amiconnLinusN: gdb 6.2.1 fails too, but at a different point :(
11:18:23hshaht0mas was making a patch that flashes the back light with the beat of the music
11:18:27hshahthat would be SOOOO cool
11:19:24amiconnImho this isn't something to include in the core
11:20:04hshahi know... but i could have so much fun with it :)
11:20:14amiconnIt eats a considerable amount of CPU power, and hence battery runtime
11:20:21amiconnIt would be ok as a plugin

14:25:20LinusNthe peak meter is a nuisance in the fm screen because it generates radio interference on the archos models, and will eat lots of cpu on the iriver
14:25:30LinusNand thus lots of battery
14:25:54CoCoLUSwhy does it eat more cpu than those on the wps?
14:26:02amiconnI'd rather fix the interference (I told you my idea this morning) than remove the peakmeter
14:27:11DarkkOneIsn't the peakmeter optional anyway?
14:27:22 Part webguest59
14:28:32CoCoLUSit's enabled by default
14:28:33LinusNCoCoLUS: it doesn't eat more than on the wps, but we can run the cpu on a much lower frequency if we lose the peak meter, and saving lots of battery
14:29:15CoCoLUSok... i'm still in favour of a per-default wps without peak meters :)
14:29:29LinusNbecause...?
14:31:30DarkkOneWait, so you're talking about removing it as an option in the WPS wholly Linus?

14:45:43LinusNbecause in the normal wps, most cpu power is used for decoding anyway
14:45:53LinusNbut the tuner is idle

14:30:13hshahso where are the forums situated then?
14:30:19hshahcoz they were fine
14:30:30B4gderat misticriver-Jeff's
14:30:47hshahahh rite
14:30:52hshahthat would explain it then :)
14:36:53XavierGrOk I would need some help over this. Code is here:http://pastebin.com/338204
14:37:13XavierGrThe first time code runs fine then the big char array is not working as intended
14:37:42XavierGrThe program opens a folder and filters only jpg files
14:37:45zezayerXavierGr: your latest remote build doesnt work
14:38:23XavierGrIt builds the names of the files in contents and has the pointer array to point the right position for the filename.
14:39:11zezayerits ok redownloaded it and works now
14:39:26XavierGrOnce the file loop is finished I extract the whole path to 2 arrays previous and next to load the files.
14:40:03XavierGrMy main concern is why if it is running right the first time then the big array is confused with other data.
14:40:38B4gderperhaps you overflow the array
14:40:43LinusNXavierGr: you shouldn't advance the length before you assign the pointer
14:40:59B4gderyou don't check if you go beyond the buffer size
14:41:42XavierGrB4gder: I will correct this later once I made this running for 4 or 5 files
14:42:02DarkkOneBut that could be causing your problem.
14:42:32B4gderyou also assume that contents[] is zero filled at start
14:42:45B4gderwhich it isn't
14:43:11B4gder(at least that's how I interpret your code)
14:43:21XavierGrDarkone: I think not. I use 4 files for test so I don't think that I run out of buffer.
14:43:26LinusNbut the most obvious bug is that "length" is advanced *before* the pointer is assigned, so each pointer points to the byte right after the string
14:43:43B4gderyeps
14:43:50LinusNline 50 and 53 should switch paces
14:43:52LinusNplaces
14:44:22XavierGrso is this posible that it runs fine the first time and then not?
14:44:36B4gderpure luck
14:45:16XavierGrhmmm.
14:47:15LinusNXavierGr: make the contents array global or static
14:47:20 Join XMaster-ShadowX [0] (n=KdTMaste@pD9533AA2.dip0.t-ipconnect.de)
14:47:31LinusNin fact, make them all static
14:47:40B4gderand use strcpy() instead of strcat()
14:48:54XavierGrB4gder: But with strcpy the whole array will be replaced to the new value. I want to add strings to contents not replace.
14:49:04B4gder?
14:49:32XavierGrstrcat contcatenates strcpy copies
14:49:46B4gderbut you don't even use the concat feature of strcat
14:49:53B4gderyou add length manually
14:50:22XavierGrahh so if I define the legth in strcpy it shouldn't get replaced?
14:50:25B4gderstrcpy() would fix your no-trailing-zero bug
14:50:35XavierGrokay got it.
14:50:45XavierGrah and LinusN why make the global?
14:51:03XavierGrI need only previous and next to keep their values
14:51:09LinusN1) it is automatically zero-filled
14:51:18LinusN2) it doesn't eat up all stack
14:51:25B4gderand...
14:51:32B4gdernext and previous keep pointers to that data
14:51:35XavierGrmake all the char arrays global then?
14:51:42B4gderso they point out into oblivion afterwards
14:51:56LinusNand 4) it is often easier to debug
14:52:21B4gderhm, no I was wrong
14:52:38B4gderthe smaller buffer sizes confused me
14:52:42DarkkOneMy usual debugging process is to work out what all the variables' values should be by hand in advance as far as I can, then output all over the place until I get a wrong number or string. ><
14:53:19DarkkOneI'm still missing something though... the +1 on line 50 is for what?
14:53:19LinusNlogf is your friend
14:53:36LinusNDarkkOne: the null byte
14:53:48XavierGrB4gder: the null character.
14:53:49DarkkOneWell most recently I've been doing alot of PHP stuff, so it's just echoes all over the place. Heh.
14:54:10DarkkOneGotcha, null char.

15:18:12XavierGrLinusN: What do you think that should happen whe scrolling if someone gets to a pic that is unsupported?
15:18:27B4gderadvance to the next
15:18:41XavierGrCurrently an error message pops up and quits. Do you think that it must continue to the next jpg?
15:19:22XavierGrand what if there is only 1 not supported jpg?
15:19:38XavierGr(1 jpg in the whole folder)
15:19:40LinusNit should show the pics it supports and skip the rest

15:20:15LinusNwell, you could splash() a short message if you like
15:20:50XavierGrDoes the HZ parameter in splash() is target specific?
15:20:59LinusNamiconn: and if you try with newlib?
15:21:04XavierGrBecause HZ*2 is very long time for iriver
15:21:16XavierGrbut maybe is short for archos?
15:21:18LinusNHZ is one second
15:21:26LinusNon all targets
15:21:31XavierGrthats good.
15:21:40LinusNthat's the whole point
15:22:16XavierGrI will reduce all warnings to HZ/2 I think. I remember that It was kinda anoying to have to wait 2 seconds on a not supported jpg.
15:23:05LinusN0.5 second is a little too short imho
15:23:28B4gderimho, you should only show a message if no files at all is supported
15:23:30hshahguys, is there a problem playing wav files?
15:23:32LinusNmaybe 1s for the first message and 0.5s for the rest
15:23:46LinusNhshah: yes and no
15:23:49hshahcoz i have a 15 second wav and it plays around 2 secs of it b4 moving onto the next track
15:24:10LinusNhshah: interesting
15:24:20hshahwant me to upload the wav?
15:24:24LinusNyes please
15:24:35hshah2mins
15:24:37XavierGrI say 0.5 because these warnings (in the jpg.c) aren't of any iportance for the user.

18:51:44XavierGrI did a define for it but again it ouputs the same error.
18:51:56Learah, well, that must be a static size, because the compiler needs to have that information. the setting is only available during run time.
18:52:16Learstatic as opposed to dynamic...
18:53:41XavierGrany solutions for it?
18:54:24 Join edx [0] (n=A@p54A8D2ED.dip.t-dialin.net)
18:55:07Learnot really. Rockbox uses a hack to get that in the "core", by using a piece of the audio buffer as the directory cache. This is only possible to do during startup though (so the file buffering code doesn't need to deal with changing buffer sizes).
18:56:02Learif it is a plugin, use part of the remaining plugin buffer (perhaps in a similar manner).
18:56:24XavierGrI don't see any alternatives, thanks.

20:08:34muesli-l8er mates
20:09:00Lear1) I've run a while with 3 * chunk_size as watermark a while now, seems to be enough - except when playing high bitrate oggs with 95% cpu boost, in which case file buffering starts to interfere with playback... :)
20:09:23Learso the pcmbuf watermark can probably be reduced a bit...
20:10:17Lear2) the gapless fixes I committed apparantly interferes a little with the crossfade; the "old" track stops a bit earlier now (but more correct, based on the id3->length information at least).

20:44:20HClnot yet. i wrote code just now to do that.
20:44:26HClso the runtime database will work
20:44:35HClregardless of it being in the tagdatabase or not
20:45:02amiconnHmm, I don't think I would want that
20:45:17amiconnUsing MAX_PATH all then time would be a waste of space
20:45:23HCli know.
20:45:39HClbut its the only way i can guarantee that i can add new files
20:46:56HCli guess the other way could be possible.
20:47:14HClan extra file with files that should be added, dunno how much overhead that would give
20:47:17HClincidentally
20:47:25HClhave you had any time to check whether your archos implementation works?
20:49:19amiconnNot yet. I need to build current databases first, then try it out on iriver, check what runtimedb it produces, then try the same on archos after implementing the hooks

21:00:36amiconnThe update to newest installed gcc 4.0.1 by default...
21:01:22webguest92Didn't you say you were running stable?
21:02:34amiconnI just used the debian web installer to set up the vm. I checked now, package sources are all 'testing'
21:02:41webguest92Ah
21:03:35amiconnI wonder why debian has so many confusing version names
21:04:07amiconnstable/testing/unstable vs. woody/sarge/? vs. version numbers...
21:04:34webguest92*shrug*
21:04:39webguest92Not more confusing than windows
21:04:47webguest92Not by much anyway
21:04:58webguest92longhorn, vista, 6.0.30.200.30402.20
21:05:02webguest92xp
21:05:05webguest92etc.
21:05:14amiconnlonghorn isn't official, so it doesn't count
21:05:52webguest92When the company uses the name, it's official to me
21:05:53amiconnI've seen no place that uses the ms build numbers to indicate a windows version to use
21:06:13webguest92Well, I've seen no place using the debian version numbers alone
21:07:01amiconnI did
21:07:23crwlstable is always the newest release (currently named sarge, previously woody), testing is the release that'll someday be the next stable (it'll be named etch) and unstable is always named sid, i don't think this is really difficult at all
21:07:38crwland the releases always have a version number with the name, too
21:08:18webguest92"Results 1 - 10 of about 197,000 from microsoft.com for longhorn" that's official enough for me
21:08:43webguest92Also, holy crap, 197,000!?
21:09:07crwlhmh, the newest release currently is sarge, the previous one was woody, i don't know if i sounded clear enough :)

21:31:07bluebrother^I tried Debian once and didn't liked it at all. Went back to Redhat and now I'm pretty happy with Fedora.
21:31:23bluebrother^(as workstation)
21:35:35webguest92No way. Debian reigns supreme!
21:35:36 Quit muesli- (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
21:35:55amiconnSo far I didn't really like any distribution
21:36:07webguest92You should try ubuntu some day
21:36:18webguest92It sounds like you'd expect something like that
21:36:27amiconnDebian is what worked best so far, but even then not really smooth
21:36:40bluebrother^have you tried Suse? Another one I didn't liked really.
21:36:40webguest92Ubuntu is Debian with added smooth, pretty much
21:37:06bluebrother^I've seen Ubuntu once or twice, looked pretty nice.
21:37:17bluebrother^but I prefer KDE instead of Gnome ;-)
21:37:30tvelocityubuntu roxxx
21:37:38amiconnThere are always things that don't work in the default installation, and getting them to work takes hours, sometimes days, or even no way at all
21:37:41bluebrother^but it's a distro that's on my should-try-list.
21:37:50amiconnThat'as why I use linux only if I have to
21:38:05webguest92Well, the default installation of Windows infuriates me
21:38:11bluebrother^what kind of are these things you came upon?
21:38:13webguest92I can't even burn cds!?
21:38:20webguest92(very well)
21:38:35webguest92It doesn't even come with a capable web browser :(
21:38:36amiconnI can install windows in under 2 hours with all hardware working. I did so on quite a number of boxes
21:38:37bluebrother^on Windows I need usually ~3 days until I can use it productively :)
21:38:55amiconnI didn't manage to do that on a single linux box
21:38:57webguest92Well, I installed Linux on my laptop in an hour
21:39:18amiconnwebguest92: wlan working? gfx chip working? sound working? modem workin?
21:39:30bluebrother^I reinstalled my laptop ~1/2 year ago. Nearly everything works.
21:39:30webguest92Yes, yes, yes, maybe
21:39:50webguest92I don't have any desire to test my modem
21:39:57webguest92Frankly I wish it'd go away
21:40:11amiconnI always prefer a modem over no internet connection at all
21:40:23webguest92Modem != internet connection
21:40:33bluebrother^in my case: no (knew it before), yes, yes, no (winmodem but easy to add)
21:40:47webguest92Surely not for me, since I don't even have a phone line.
21:41:02bluebrother^I once installed a laptop with a real modem (no winmodem) and it worked ootb.
21:41:28amiconnI'm talking about the integrated modem (99% of them are winmodems)
21:41:51webguest92Well, I don't know as I said, but I saw something about it.
21:42:30bluebrother^this _can_ be tricky. My laptop has a winmodem and I can use it without any kernel modules thanks to alsa. I need only a daemon :)
21:42:43webguest92Anyway, winmodems not working is hardly the fault of linux
21:43:01amiconnbluebrother^: Btw, SuSE is a distro I know of. Wouldn't try it on any of my boxes...
21:43:23amiconnI know suse since kernel 0.9.something
21:44:00bluebrother^amiconn: I tried various distros over the past years. Always I got into touch with Suse I switched back to something else :)
21:44:09webguest92I tried installing redhat5.2 the other day using qemu
21:44:17webguest92Was surprisingly easy
21:44:21webguest92wouldn't run though
21:44:30bluebrother^but they're great with their hardware recognition. Until Yast trashes all config files.
21:44:32webguest92Or rather, the graphics was messed up
21:44:37amiconnwebguest92: Yes, but that's not the point. I have a certain piece of hardware, my Laptop. I want to work with it, and use all of its features that seem useful to me
21:44:58*bluebrother^ too :)
21:45:23amiconnI can do that with WinXP, with little configuration time
21:45:47amiconnWinXP even was preinstalled, and I didn't need to reinstall a single time
21:46:02amiconnI can't do that with Linux even with days of configuration
21:46:07bluebrother^sure. Your vendor preinstalles WXP some way it workes with all hardware.
21:46:11webguest92Well, you still shoudln't blame Linux for that. Blame your shitty hardware.
21:46:51bluebrother^I didn't wanted to convince you. But esp. on laptops debian may be the wrong choice imo.
21:46:57amiconnThe thing is that even hardware that is said to be supported in Linux is hard to get working sometimes, if at all possible
21:47:29bluebrother^I know. But this is really dependent on the exact type of hardware.
21:47:45amiconnAnother thing is that I would switch to linux immediately, if I would find a way to make it work without needing days and days
21:47:51amiconnThat's what really annoys me
21:47:53bluebrother^I have a preinstalled WXP and it runs pretty crappy. I seldomly use it.
21:48:28bluebrother^so in my case linux runs better than Windows on this box (ok, there are some minor glitches)
21:48:56amiconnE.g., I tried to get wlan running on another box, Ralink RT2500 chipset
21:49:07amiconnThere is even a driver from the chipset manufacturer
21:49:23webguest92Only one thing didn't work out of the box on my laptop with ubuntu: cpu frequency scaling. Took "modprobe p4-clockmod" to get that working.
21:49:24amiconnI was able to compile and load the module w/o problems
21:49:30bluebrother^never heard of this chipset.
21:49:40amiconnHowever, I don't manage to get a connection to the AP, whatever I try
21:49:48*NekoNoNiaow is Laurent by the way (for those who remember ;) )
21:50:17amiconnIt works without problems in windows, on the very same box, to the same AP
21:50:27bluebrother^eeks. I really don't like manufacturer drivers under linux. Had some bad experience with that.
21:50:35amiconnIt's open source
21:50:40webguest92Maybe the driver is using some non-standard configuration
21:51:01webguest92instead of wireless-wotsit
21:51:09bluebrother^I tried getting a realtek-wlan to work. They used pretty strange configuration stuff.
21:51:22webguest92As does linux-wlan-ng
21:51:32webguest92Why they do that is baffling
21:51:37bluebrother^but the driver (binary :( was unusable, reproduceable lockup of the whole machine :(
21:51:59webguest92Good thing there's a different driver for that wlan card
21:52:10webguest92Which uses the standard configuration things
21:52:21webguest92And works out of the box on ubuntu \o/

22:25:14webguest92One thing that bothers me, while we're at it
22:25:18bluebrother^are the strings only in the language files?
22:25:30NekoNoNiaowthere's a strange problem when building the binutils : a VERSION variable is not set which causes a file not to be created, then the build to fail
22:25:42bluebrother^or is there a hardcoded "C" "locale"?
22:25:54webguest92is that under LCD Settings is "LCD Mode", where the options are "inverse" and "normal"
22:26:08Bagderbluebrother^: the strings are in the lang files, but one lang file is the "hardcoded" one at build-time
22:26:08webguest92This should be "Inverted" "yes/no"

22:54:23Bagderand you have it installed ;-)
22:54:36NekoNoNiaowI guess there's one optimization that configure needs : being able to minimize itself so it tests the minimum set of things to test for a particular program. I know it's supposed to be the case, but i can't help thinking it doesn't work
22:55:12Bagdereach configure script is setup by an author to do the tests it should

23:07:50LinusNhi, was curious about Lear's latest commit
23:08:30amiconnI tested building sh-elf-gcc 3.3.6 with & without newlib on debian, both with the old native gcc 3.3.5 and the new 4.0.1.
23:08:32LinusNis he sure that using a 64 bit int solves the problem?
23:08:46amiconnResult: newlib workaround still works, without newlib it does not
23:09:07amiconnI wonder why it works without newlib on cygwin...
23:10:18LinusNyeah, that would be nice to know
23:10:43LinusNaccording to my calculations, a 32-bit int could count 27 hours worth of samples
23:11:05amiconnIt's nice that it does though. I suspected that it might have to do with the native gcc version, that's why I tried again after updating my debian
23:11:37amiconnIirc the newlib trick was necessary on cygwin too, but that was back when cygwin had gcc 3.3.3
23:11:44amiconnCurrent cygwin uses gcc 3.4.4

23:12:23midkwelcome to zombocom!
23:12:28NekoNoNiaowok, i renounce, i think the gimni binutils miss a few changes from the gnu source tree, let's hack the makefile for good
23:12:55BagderNekoNoNiaow: I never liked the way they did the gmini binutils dev
23:13:11Bagderthey should've just made patches against public binutils versions
23:13:16NekoNoNiaowBagder: what do you mean ?
23:13:37Bagderthey way the added the whole binutils tree into their own cvs
23:13:51Bagdergee I type crappy
23:13:55amiconnHmm, it seems there is a problem with the peakmeter on iriver
23:14:03NekoNoNiaowthat said, they had to deal with the samsung source tree, merging with the official gnu one was not so obvious to do
23:14:30amiconnI have configured my peakmeters the same way across my units. Logarithmic, min = -50 dB, max = 0 dB
23:14:44NekoNoNiaowi can see why they added it : the binutils for calmrisc are not officially supported by gnu
23:14:53BagderI know
23:15:12Bagderthat's the whole point with their binutils work afaics
23:15:24Bagderstill
23:15:25amiconnHowever, the peakmeter on iriver is almost at 0 dB most of the time, and often indicates clipping, while the archos peakmeter does not, with the same mp3 files
23:15:33NekoNoNiaowwhat does gnu need to officially support it ? just a maintainer who will have a look at possible bugs and test new versions ?
23:15:36Bagdernow the gmini cvs can't keep up with the gnu one easily
23:15:53amiconnAfaik gnu says they don't support 16 bit archs
23:16:06midkamiconn, unrelated, but.. i don't know about the specs of the iriver or anything, but i wonder if it's capable of a spectrum analyzer? as a plugin or something.
23:17:12NekoNoNiaowamiconn: huh ? there's still plenty of them, most notably in the embedded market
23:17:31Bagderyes, but not with gcc support
23:19:09NekoNoNiaowtrue, because they made a stupid architecture decision long ago
23:19:21LinusNi don't think it's *that* stupid
23:19:28BagderI agree with LinusN
23:19:34Bagderthey had to draw the line somewhere
23:19:55BagderI'd say Archos was the stupid party here ;-)
23:20:07NekoNoNiaowif they had made gcc machine producing code independent of the underlying hardware, things would be much easier now for them
23:20:23BagderI doubt that
23:20:34NekoNoNiaowless efficient but more flexible for development
23:20:42Bagderfor <32 bits, yes
23:20:46LinusNefficiency is important
23:21:09NekoNoNiaowLinusN: i don't know, i spend more time writing code than compiling it :)
23:21:32 Quit Coldtoast ("Peace and Protection 4.22")
23:21:32Bagderyes, but even more time should be spent _running_ the code
23:22:02NekoNoNiaowsure, but this should not impact the generated code
23:22:30Bagderwell yes, and Rockbox should work on all players
23:22:56NekoNoNiaowbut of course, i'm just talking, unless i fork gcc to prove i'm right that will just be words ;)
23:23:00Bagderwe all need to make decisions to get the right focus
23:23:26Bagder:-)
23:24:19NekoNoNiaowsometimes, the thought surfaces, but then i remember how hard it is to do much simpler things and i forget it instantly :)

23:26:38amiconnHmm, it isn't that clear. I think I've read somewhere that gcc doesn't support <32 bit architectures, but there are some officially supported 16 bit archs...
23:26:44amiconn:confused:
23:27:38amiconnH8 is one example
23:29:14 Nick webguest92 is now known as rasher (n=3e4f4094@labb.contactor.se)
23:29:26rasherI'm confused by the islenska language update
23:29:46rasherRunning uplang on it generates a gazillion ### comments
23:30:20BagderI was puzzled by his comment
23:30:26Bagder"updating with the english file available on the site."
23:30:36Bagderwhat file is that?
23:30:53 Quit HCl (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
23:31:10rasherHm, there's a link to http://www.rockbox.org/viewcvs.cgi/apps/lang/english.lang on the HowtoUpdateLangfile wiki page
23:31:21Bagderaha
23:31:28rasherShould be a checkout link
23:31:33rasherI fix.

23:33:18Bagdermmmmm bed
23:33:30NekoNoNiaowgive me the email of that stallman guy, we need to talk
23:33:32NekoNoNiaow:)
23:33:51BagderI don't think he's that involved with those things these days
23:34:17Bagderbut he seems to like to talk ;-)
23:34:26NekoNoNiaowBagder: he was involved in the architecture decision, that's makes him a target of my anger ;)
23:34:37 Part LinusN
23:36:06NekoNoNiaowof course, i'm joking, i globally share his ideas on software

23:44:55rasherCan I change the auto-assignment from quelsaruk to me, or should I leave him?
