#rockbox log for 2006-07-27

00:00:04amiconn...but the second one yields smaller & faster code. That's with -O (coldfire)

00:07:40MangoManCan you get rockbox to support .wmv?
00:08:29|apo|I doubt it
00:08:38MangoManNo pluggins?
00:09:11|apo|First we have to get video...
00:09:21|apo|Dunno if that's planned
00:09:28Bagderwe don't plan
00:09:34|apo|See? :P
00:09:47linuxstb_MangoMan: 1) There is no open source wmv decoder; 2) The players rockbox runs on will struggle with all types of video playback.
00:09:52dionoealinuxstb_: wrong
00:09:54|apo|(I wouldn't want to watch videos on those screens anyway)
00:09:56dionoeacheck ffmpeg svn

00:22:41barrywardellquick question about config-*.h. What is CPU_FREQ about? Is that just the frequency of the processor? If so, why is it set to 11289600 in most of the files?
00:25:37amiconnCPU_FREQ is the base frequency of the CPU, i.e. with the PLL disabled
00:25:51amiconnIt's set to 11289600 for all coldfire targets
00:27:03amiconnArchos targets have different values (11059200 for recorders, 12000000 for player and Ondios). They have fixed CPU clock

03:04:33sharpeah. maybe.
03:04:48BigMacim glad i only have like 120 songs lol

03:05:53k8toBigMac: i've used this thing called 'cantus' which is for free unix and has the worst interface ever
03:05:57k8tobut lets you script stuff
03:06:22dongsjesus christ dudes. 'fade in on pause' is totally fucking unusable. why does it change the play/pause icon only AFTER the fact? i just clicked play/pause liek 8 times trying to get the fuckin thing to stop because icon wasnt changing, and hten i noticed it kept fading the sound in and out repeatedly and only THEN changing the icon
03:06:33k8toif your files aren't reliably tagged, or reliably named, then there's no way to automate it to my knowledge, unoless you have software that can recognize songs by sound
03:06:34sharpehahah. "the worst interface ever, but lets you script stuff."
03:06:51dongswhy is a) that stuff on by default b) changes the icon only AFTER the fade is complete??
03:07:22k8tosharpe: well it's significantly simpler to script in it than with external tools
03:07:32BigMachey my pause on unplug isnt working
03:07:38BigMacwhats up with that
03:07:40sharpeyeah, i'm sure it is, but that just struck me as funny.
03:07:56BigMaci have it set to pause and resume
03:07:58k8tosharpe: i can do stuff like say "make all these files stored in directory/artist, oh wait, that's the wrong spelling for Pink Floyd" and it automatically fixes everything
03:08:01BigMacand it does neither
03:08:05BigMacjust keeps playing
03:08:07sharpe:)
03:08:16k8tosharpe: but it's truly horrific to use
03:08:20k8toin terms of where to click
03:08:24sharpei lelieve you.
03:08:30sharpebelieve, not lelieve.

03:10:40dongsk8to: it should just change the icon to pause BEFORE fade starts.
03:10:48midkaydongs: it isn't BROKEN. it might look a bit weird if the icon says "pause" when there's music playing, hm?
03:10:58k8todongs: hmm, i think there should really be three states
03:11:04dongssince if LCD is dark, one tap takes to wake it up, another tap takes to MAYBE start the pause process, and it would confuse the user if there was no feedback that something was happening
03:11:08k8todongs: not paused, pausing, paused
03:11:34k8toi would probably make it blink while pausing
03:11:39k8toor throb
03:11:42k8towhatever
03:11:51midkayk8to: that isn't going to happen.. (1) the fade only takes like under a second, it'd be pretty pointless and (2) the short fade is the only place it'd be used that i can think of..
03:12:07midkayah, blinking is potential, but unlikely also..
03:12:18k8tomidkay: well i can accept that it isn't going to happen, but it isn't pointless
03:12:25k8tomidkay: it's good user feedback
03:12:44k8to"the thing you did is working" is good user interface
03:13:00midkayk8to: considering the fade-length it is more or less. of course that's an opinion and it won't ever be a fact. you can't say "this is pointless, period."..
03:13:11midkayk8to: that'd apply here if it wasn't already working.
03:13:13dongslawl, i told oyu i just clicked pause like EIGHT TIMES because I couldnt tell waht hte fuck it was doing, so I was sittin here for liek 20 seconds while it faded in/out in/out instead of turning off like I wanted to
03:13:16k8toit's not opinion, it's a generally accepted user interface principle
03:13:26midkaydongs: learn to be a bit more patient then. or turn it off.
03:13:39k8tonot that I care much
03:13:40midkayk8to: a flashing play icon for half a second? .. generally accepted... yeah...

03:27:25k8toor i hsould be writing supplementary docs
03:27:36dongsthe way that part is done in opensores projects is 'LOL NOOB THATS HOW ITS SUPPOSED TO WORK'
03:27:56k8todongs: hm, that varies a lot. irc leans more that way
03:28:10k8tosince people have to suffer a lot of complainers
03:28:17k8to*whistles*
03:28:40dongslike this other problem i brought up a while ago (but now I know theres no *good* technical way to fix it) but anyway, if HOLD is on and ipod is plugged into usb, rockbox starts up after its plugged in and promptly erases settings (because hold on while power up = erase settings). but if someone just plugs the thing to charge, and forgets that it was on hold, they come back to it with all settings reset.
03:29:08k8tohm
03:29:10dongsthats bullshit and pisses users off.
03:29:20k8tomy naive reaction is that hold perhaps should not be used that way
03:29:24dongsbut i was told theres no way to fix that because keypad isnt readable at boot and hold is a gpio pin that can be checked.
03:29:44k8tobut i suppose the ipod has pretty limited inputs
03:30:02dongsa 2-3 key combo AFTER boot would be just as effective, i think.
03:30:11dongsfor whatever reason that someone would wnat ot erase settings.
03:30:12k8toi don't know the rationale
03:30:36k8toholding down say forward and rewind would be more pleasant from a user perspective
03:30:40sharpewell for instance, if they accidentally, somehow set their background and foreground colors to the same color...
03:30:42Paul_The_Nerddongs: It's possible for a bad settings block to freeze the iPod before you can get to a point where keypad input is possible, but a clear will still work.
03:30:47dongssharpe: yes, that was the excuse.
03:30:59k8tosharpe: having a settings erase feature seems a good idea
03:31:00dongssharpe: however backround color has nothing to do with which keys to press to reset them.
03:31:10k8tosharpe: although not letting them make that setting seems a good idea too :)
03:31:24dongsthat would be thinking too much
03:31:39*Paul_The_Nerd has never accidentally cleared his settings, but has on occasion had to intentionally clear them because his iPod would lock up with an IllInstr immediately upon boot.

03:33:03k8toso it will run out of batteries with hold on
03:33:07k8to== boot up with hold on
03:33:25dongsand promptly erase settings.
03:33:54Paul_The_NerdHow does running out of batteries with hold on equal booting with hold on?
03:34:01k8toi don't think the complaint is that there is a way to reset settings, but that it is possible to accidentally trigger it in normal operation without intentionality
03:34:13k8toPaul_The_Nerd: because later you power it on again
03:34:23dongs(it powers on when you plug it into charger)
03:34:27dongsautomatically.
03:34:33Paul_The_NerdSo again it's a case of the user not bothering to check the hold switch.
03:34:39k8tohow important are these settings anyway?

03:35:15k8tothat seems fairly annoying if you trigger it frequently
03:35:15Paul_The_NerdYou can export it to an text readable file though, and reimport if they get cleared.

03:35:45Paul_The_Nerddongs: You should bother to check the switch because that's the way we say it needs to be done. If you don't like it, code a better solution, offer one that addresses the current list of needs, or shut up.
03:35:59dongs^ typical open source reply
03:36:08k8tohm
03:36:15Paul_The_Nerddongs: All you've done is complain without offering an alternative.

03:36:18Paul_The_Nerd"It's BAD"
03:36:41Paul_The_NerdOMG, our method isn't the best? Jee, so what. It's what we have, and nobody has offered a method that's better.
03:36:44k8toI would say: yes, it's less than ideal. It's not _that_ important, and we have bigger things to do right now. patches welcome

03:37:20dongstelling them to "submit a patch" is totally useless.
03:37:31Paul_The_NerdAnd I didn't offer submitting a patch as the only alternative.
03:37:46dongsthere are no alternatives to usability problems.
03:37:46Paul_The_NerdI also said suggest a method that addresses the current needs.
03:38:01Paul_The_NerdIf there are NO alternatives, then why bother complaining at all?

I documented this and opened a bug on bugzilla. it seems it will not be fixed because "most people dont open new windows in firefox" being the excuse. what the FUCK? and they expect me to use this shit?
03:39:04Paul_The_NerdBigMac: If ANYTHING is ever not working, try a CVS build first to make sure it doesn't work.

03:44:38dongsthats not really my concern as a user
03:44:50dongsa even BETTER solution would be
03:44:55dongsa) prevent crashes due to settings fuckups
03:44:56dongs:)
03:45:03Paul_The_NerdThat's being worked on.
03:45:05dongsb) prevent users from setting settings that fuck shit up.
03:45:18dongsthen you wouldnt need *gasp* a reset settings function on hardware!
03:45:30k8todongs: if you haven't done it already, file a feature request (no need to be unnecessary confrontational), and include a concise rationale
03:45:40Paul_The_Nerdk8to: He can't be bothered.
03:45:48Paul_The_NerdHe has more fun this way.
03:46:01Paul_The_NerdNotice that his rational is "I'm a user, so I don't have to offer alternatives."
03:46:10Paul_The_NerdHe doesn't *have* to do anything but complain, so he doesn't.
03:46:25k8todongs: and if you feel the need to harp on it, tell affected users to tick the request

03:50:48dongsno, that pisses me off even more because itunes is a worthless piece of shit
03:51:09dongsand I refuse to organize waht shitty music I have by album/artist/whatever

03:52:46dongsi could, its not like i paid for it.
03:52:54dongsi forgot about it for a week , and battery was dead.
03:53:01Paul_The_NerdSee, problem solved.

03:55:49BigMacwhat is a transcode exactly
03:55:53*Febs observes that dongs has actually written two whole lines without using the words "fuck" or "shit."
03:55:58FebsMust be a record
03:56:00BigMacisnt it going from one format to another
03:56:02k8tofalse dichotomy! which is really too bad, since there is a pretty reasonable claim here: dongs you are being a git
03:56:08FebsBigMac: yes.
03:56:12BigMack
03:56:32k8toBigMac: usually it refers to the data loss that occurs when going from one lossy format to another
03:56:41BigMacah i see

03:57:41*^jhMikeS^ is chuckling at this conversion.
03:57:52k8toBigMac: for example, FLAC -> ogg is usually not talked about in terms of transcoding, even though it is a format change
03:58:09Paul_The_Nerdk8to: Most places I see, any format change is called a transcode, even lossless to lossless.
03:58:10k8toBigMac: since it is not lossy to lossy, so there is no special set of artifacting problems
03:58:30Paul_The_NerdSo long as one of the formats is not uncompressed.
03:58:43k8toPaul_The_Nerd: i think that's a fair usage of the term, but usually i see it associated with the lossy to lossy issue
03:58:53scottdernot uncompressed? :)
03:58:59Mikachuif you want to be pedantic, "as long as one of the formats is not coded."
03:59:20BigMachow can i change tag info in xp
03:59:30*^jhMikeS^ thinks all formats are technically coded. Maybe he is insane.
03:59:32scottderI rip most stuff to flac....then transcode to ogg vorbis for my nano/rockbox
03:59:35JdGordonright click - propertieas.. maube?

04:00:11k8to^jhMikeS^: the former

04:00:21k8to^jhMikeS^: i have no experience with the latter
04:00:27scottderI keep both....flac for home listening...
04:00:28MikachuBigMac: you can not fit many .flac on one ipod nano

04:00:40scottderI just use dbpoweramp in winders

04:01:18k8tofor the settings I use, flac is around 3-5 times larger than ogg

04:01:56BigMacwhat is the best quality type for ripping from a cd
04:02:11scottderlossless is ....lossless
04:02:16scottderEXACTLY like the CD
04:02:22k8toBigMac: i'm not sure exactly what you mean. there are formats which lose no data, and thus store all the fidelity available on the CD
04:02:33k8toBigMac: any lossless format keeps all the data
04:02:39 Quit enzyme ()
04:02:40k8toBigMac: FLAC is a popular such format
04:02:54k8to(other examples, WAV, raw, monkey's audio (ape))
04:02:59k8to(shorten)
04:03:06Mikachu(wav is a container)
04:03:09scottderit compresses it without actually removing any of the audio data....loss codecs do
04:03:10BigMacso why would i want flac more then ape or vice versus
04:03:12Paul_The_NerdALAC, wavpack...
04:03:14k8tookay, well i mean typical wav files (pcm)
04:03:30MikachuBigMac: software support
04:03:39scottderdifference in lossless codecs is small %'s of compress VS CPU to uncompress
04:03:55k8toBigMac: flac is nice in that it is open and thus supported in a wide range of software and devices
04:04:00k8toBigMac: as compared to APE
04:04:13BigMacok for rockbox, which format would i want to use
04:04:14k8toBigMac: i recommend FLAC over all other lossless formats
04:04:20BigMacon a 30 gb video pod
04:04:21scottderI believe (and I can be wrong) APE gets SLIGHTLy better compression, but also at the cost of higher CPU to uncompress
04:04:32scottderFLAC is very versatile and supported by Rockbox
04:04:34Paul_The_NerdFLAC is almost definitely the best for Rockbox.
04:04:42BigMacok
04:04:45Paul_The_NerdI believe wavpack can achieve slightly smaller files.
04:04:46scottdermaybe not the best for battery life....
04:04:52FebsRockbox on my iPod glitches on WavPack.
04:05:02Paul_The_NerdBut requires more CPU to decompress. I don't think anyone's tested whether the additional spinup here and there hurts more.
04:05:06scottderbut really....try a few different formats....you may be suprised....
04:05:12k8toBigMac: the tradeoff between things like FLAC and lossy formats such as musepack, ogg, mp3, and aac involve a variety of factors; cpu time, storage space, audio fidelity
04:05:30FebsI'll probably convert them to FLAC because FLAC has better software support in general (as mentioned previously).
04:05:39BigMacso is the genral consesus for rockbox flac
04:05:43JdGordoncan you do strikethrough text in the wiki?
04:05:50FebsIncidentally, I would refer to that conversion as transcoding.
04:06:11k8toBigMac: the reason to NOT use flac is because if you use something else, you can put more music per space
04:06:24k8toBigMac: so it is a tradeoff
04:06:42BigMacso does flac sound a lot better then ogg
04:06:44FebsThat assumes that you can hear a difference between FLAC and a lossy format.
04:06:44k8toif you have infinite storage or little music, FLAC is a good bet
04:06:56FebsBigMac, not necessarily.
04:07:03scottderwith HDs so cheap....I like lossless for home
04:07:03k8toFebs: yes but then also there is the archival issue
04:07:15BigMacwell isnt ogg smaller then flac?
04:07:19Febsk8to, very true. I was talking about on the nano.
04:07:23k8toBigMac: lossy formats such as ogg,mp3, aac have quality settings
04:07:29Paul_The_NerdBigMac: Most people cannot hear the difference between FLAC and high quality encodes in good lossy formats. There's almost always a point after which a user can't hear the difference.
04:07:36BigMaci thought ogg wasnt lossy
04:07:42FebsOgg is lossy.
04:07:44k8toBigMac: so you can set them to higher or lower quality. at their highest quality, most people cannot hear the difference between the original and the lossy version
04:07:46Mikachuogg is not a codec
04:07:50scottdervorbis
04:07:55scottderto be technical
04:07:56FebsOK, Ogg Vorbis is lossy.
04:08:03Mikachui will be wearing the Annoying Hat tonight
04:08:07BigMacwhat is vorbis's extension?
04:08:07scottderhehe
04:08:09BigMac.vbr?
04:08:12scottder.ogg
04:08:13sharpe.ogg
04:08:18Febslol
04:08:29k8toBigMac: if you are not an audiophile, you will probably not notice the quality loss for a high quality ogg encoding
04:08:40Paul_The_NerdDoes our software handle flacs with a .ogg extension yet?
04:08:46*scottder has no golden ears....Q3 oggs work for me most of the time
04:08:52scottderthe lossy codecs have come a ways....
04:08:53k8toBigMac: if you are an audiophile type person, musepack is supposed to be even higher quality, so maybe you would prefer that
04:09:09BigMacim far from an audiophile
04:09:18k8toBigMac: then any lossy format will probably be fine
04:09:27BigMacand im not sure if i can even tell the difference between mp3 and ogg
04:09:29k8toBigMac: so long as you choose a reasonable quality setting
04:09:39BigMaci dont rip my own cds
04:09:46scottderencode some stuff at different bitrates....see what works for you is my suggestion
04:09:47BigMaci get most songs from friends
04:09:51k8toBigMac: oh, then you don't have much of a choice about format!
04:09:57BigMaci dont have many cds
04:10:04BigMaci think i have one actual cd
04:10:10BigMacall others are mixs
04:10:13k8toBigMac: if you are not creating the files, then just play them
04:10:17k8toand don't worry about formats
04:10:28Paul_The_NerdNo conversion can *ever* improve quality.
04:10:32Mikachui would like to point out that converting from a lossy format such as vorbis to a lossless like flac will not give you better quality
04:10:36 Quit YouCeyE (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))

04:12:51FebsPaul_The_Nerd, on a different topic, I've started closing threads on the forum that don't relate in any way to Rockbox.
04:13:15FebsI don't think that the Rockbox forums needs to be a place for general chat, as there are a million other forums that serve that purpose.
04:13:17k8todo you think a wiki can work as a discussion forum for a large audience or is that just hopeless?
04:14:09FebsI think that a wiki is a great tool for many things, but it is not well-suited to discussion.
04:14:14scottderindeed
04:14:38FebsOf course, the signal-to-noise ratio on a wiki discussion tends to be much higher than in discussions on the forums.
04:14:43BigMacFebs:Perhaps a Non rockbox discussion subforum
04:14:52FebsWhy do we need that?
04:15:16BigMacso then people can talk about no rockbox items...
04:15:26k8tothe reason to do it, i think, would be to encourage a 'community' to form on your forum thing
04:15:26BigMacmaybe people like the members of the community
04:15:29Paul_The_NerdFebs: I agree with that decision wholly. Until recently I'd been treating them with a "Stop that" but I think we've reached a population level where thread closures are better. Both non-Rockbox discussion, AND tech-support requests related to patched builds.
04:15:39k8to(not that I am arguing for it)
04:15:50BigMacand if they went to another forum those people wouldnt be there
04:15:56Paul_The_NerdFebs: Any problem with a patched build should be met with a closed thread, and a post stating that the question should either be asked on the thread for the build, or should be verified to happen in CVS and a new thread started.
04:16:25Paul_The_NerdBigMac: The Rockbox forum isn't a community though. It's a tool. Support, and development.
04:16:29k8toPaul_The_Nerd: is there a forum place for people to discuss patched build problems without them being explicitly support requests?
04:16:44Paul_The_NerdBigMac: It's a community in the sense of "The community of people working on improving this"
04:16:58FebsRight. If there are people who wouldn't be on the forum but for off-topic discussions, honestly, I don't think we need to have those people there.
04:17:07Paul_The_Nerdk8to: No. For patches in the tracker, problems with that patch should be posted to the tracker entry for it.
04:17:15Paul_The_Nerdk8to: Unofficial builds are frankly not our problem.
04:17:33k8towell facilitating discussion isn't exactly the same as owning a problem
04:17:48k8tobut *shrug* you know way more about the issues than me
04:18:00BigMacyup
04:18:00Paul_The_NerdThe issue is that these unofficial builds are essentially Forks.
04:18:13Paul_The_NerdAnd that many people don't even know or ever find out that they're unofficial
04:18:22BigMaci thought they were more of spoons paul...
04:18:27Paul_The_NerdOther people hear about problems with the unofficial builds, or features, and think they're included in the real build.
04:18:50 Quit XavierGr ()
04:19:01FebsPaul_The_Nerd, I agree with you about unofficial builds only to a point. I don't feel a need to provide tech support for users of patched builds. But I don't want to discourage discussion of the patches themselves.
04:19:14k8toPaul_The_Nerd: i guess i would say consider an area for discussion of "problems with unofficial builds and patches" since tsaid patches might get included in the future etc
04:19:21Paul_The_NerdFebs: Discussion of the patches is different from discussion of the patched build.
04:19:28k8tothere are a variety of .. social reasons for and against such
04:19:43Paul_The_NerdFebs: For example, jblackglass includes many patches not even on the tracker. It also has so many patches that it's impossible to pin down which causes a given error.
04:20:00Paul_The_Nerdk8to: As I said, the patch tracker has a means for commenting on patches already.
04:20:18k8toyes, which is neither here nor there
04:20:23Paul_The_NerdHow so?
04:20:34Paul_The_NerdIf you can't figure out which patch in a build causes the problem, report to the build author
04:20:41Paul_The_NerdIf you know which patch causes the problem, report to the patch author.
04:20:46Paul_The_NerdIs there a third situation I don't know of?
04:21:02FebsGotta run. I'm glad we're in agreement on the issue of non-Rockbox threads.

04:23:24Paul_The_NerdThe way I see it, discussion of patches should be limited to the single thread on that patch, so a patch author doesn't have to seek fifty locations of people commenting on their patch.
04:23:36k8toit's tricky
04:23:48k8toyou really want any and all problems with a patch to end up in the patch page
04:23:59k8tobut not all discussion starts out patch specific
04:24:19Paul_The_NerdPeople are free to discuss Rockbox ideas and bugs all they want.
04:25:14 Part scott666_
04:26:06k8toare the patches not in the tracker not there due to laziness or a lack of knowledge or a desire to have some kind of independence by some developers, do you think?
04:26:18k8toor otherwise? just curious
04:26:27k8tosince that sounds like a super reasonable desire
04:26:42Paul_The_NerdHe feels they're not likely to be included in CVS (which is true since they override existing behaviour without options).
04:26:56Paul_The_NerdHis patches just change the behaviour of the status bar so that it fits his themes.
04:27:07k8tooh you're talking about some specific unclean work?
04:27:14BigMacwho is this he and his
04:27:21Paul_The_NerdI'm talking about any instance of an author being unwilling to include his patch in the tracker.
04:27:37Paul_The_NerdIf a patch is at the tracker, it will always be available for users to improve upon, or integrate in their own builds or not as they see fit.
04:27:43Paul_The_NerdIf it's privately hosted they can take it down at any time.
04:27:58Paul_The_NerdThis is why I'm against having any WPSes in the gallery that use non-tracker patches.
04:28:16k8tosad
04:28:43Paul_The_NerdThis is also why I'm against discussion of custom builds outside their thread. In many, if not all, cases, small changes have been made to the patches to get them to work together.
04:29:05Paul_The_NerdWhich means almost every custom build has modifications that would not be there for user using just one of the patches.
04:31:19k8toi wonder if there's any special property of rockbox that is encouraging divergent development that does not apply to other open projects
04:31:33Paul_The_NerdPeople like pretty.
04:31:47k8toyeah i'd be tempted to blame the skin people too
04:31:49Paul_The_NerdSpecifically, it happened with Album Art.
04:32:01Paul_The_NerdWhen the Album Art first became available, the custom build trend started.
04:32:12Paul_The_NerdBecause even now the patch isn't acceptable for CVS I believe.
04:32:21k8towell
04:32:30k8toin the long run they'll have to track the main
04:32:34Paul_The_NerdBut nearly every custom build stems with the desire to use WPSes not supported in the current one, or in a few cases games.
04:32:41k8tomaybe they will get tired of making it work and merge it properly or stop
04:33:47Paul_The_NerdEither way, the forums are for discussing Rockbox. From my perspective people discussing Jbuild outside the Jbuild thread are like Debian users going into a RedHat support and development forum, and chatting about their breed of linux.

04:34:21scottderKids now-a-days and there custom builds....standard CVS build is good enough for me
04:34:23 Part scott666
04:34:24scottder:)
04:34:27Paul_The_NerdIn most cases the person making the custom build isn't even the author of any of the patches (or in some cases one or two) and has just compiled them together.

04:39:25k8tono patches, honest! just *cough* changes
04:40:34Paul_The_NerdPeople using patches is a good thing.
04:40:50Paul_The_NerdPeople not knowing the real features of Rockbox at all, and having no idea what patches they're using, not so much.

05:09:24Jungti1234what's mean?
05:10:03 Quit bow-viper ()
05:10:03Paul_The_NerdJungti1234: It means the patch can't be installed.
05:10:12Jungti1234why happend..
05:10:25Paul_The_NerdIt may be old?
05:10:28Jungti1234http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/5594
05:10:31k8tothat patch was meant to be applied against code in a different state than your code
05:10:46k8toie. a different version as paul says, or possibly you have applied multiple incompatable patches?
05:10:49midgey34the patch isn't up to date with cvs or conflicts with another patch you have installed
05:11:34Jungti1234but julius patch succeed.
05:11:40Jungti1234ok
05:12:25k8toif you are a developer you could manually review the changes the patch makes vs the code
05:12:55k8tohowever, i doubt you are, so you should either: a) not use that patch, or b) figure out what that patch wants to apply against and use that
05:13:47Jungti1234Do I change it manually?
05:14:05Jungti1234then, can I use it?
05:14:31Jungti1234???
05:14:33k8tostep 1) are you a developer?
05:14:42k8toIf yes) fix it yourself
05:14:43Jungti1234hehe, no.
05:14:47Paul_The_NerdOr C programmer, at least.
05:14:47Jungti1234ok.
05:14:48k8toIf no) do not use that patch
05:14:59Jungti1234okok.. I will fix it myself.
05:16:24k8towhenever you apply a patch to a source base, there is no guarantee it will work
05:17:20k8toif you apply it to the exact codebase that it was written for, it should work. if you use a different (older or newer) version, or if you apply any other patches also, it can break
05:17:33k8toif you get these kinds of errors, that means it is breaking.
05:17:40k8toif you do not get these kinds of errors, it might still break

06:54:14Paul_The_NerdWell, Winamp and Foobar2000 are by far the most popular programs that can create them.
06:54:31Paul_The_NerdIf you're particularly oldschool you could go with EDIT, thought that might take a while.
06:55:00BigMacdoes wmp12 make m3u playlists?
06:55:30Paul_The_NerdWe probably won't know that for a year or two yet.
06:55:32RaiderXhey in the patches list where you can download plugins and stuff, peopel upload many files for each plugin, I only need the .rock file right? the rest is just source liek the .c files? like in this one: http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/2272
06:56:04Paul_The_NerdRaiderX: Usually you need the source. The .rock may be outdated, or compiled for a different MP3 player, or both.
06:56:25RaiderXso i would need to recompile it?
06:56:44Paul_The_NerdYes
06:56:51RaiderXdo i need liek the rockbox sdk?
06:56:53k8tom3u is a pretty straightforward format
06:57:09k8toi would probably write a script to create m3us if i needed such
06:57:14Paul_The_NerdRaiderX: See the SimpleGuideToCompiling page in the wiki.

07:39:33JdGordonwork in progress
07:39:49Bg3rhehe ok
07:40:35BigMacok question
07:40:55BigMacwhat could cause my mp3s to be skipping alot
07:41:05BigMacthey worked fine a little while ago
07:41:19BigMaccould an eq preset be causing it
07:41:25midgey34yes
07:42:59midgey34ipods still are very optimized yet, so decoding is barely fullspeed on some codecs (and less than fullspeed on others). By turning on an EQ, you make the cpu work harder and it can't decode in realtime, therefore, you get skips occasionally.
07:43:17midgey34s/are/aren't
07:44:34BigMacdoes flac play better then mp3 on an ipod
07:44:40BigMacsince it is better quality

08:43:53LinusNyes
08:44:07amiconnNote that fb_remote_data for the x5 remote is short (!)
08:44:22LinusNdo you want the frame buffer in the native format?
08:44:31amiconnYes, as always

08:50:20ravonHmmm, accidently washed my X5 remote in the washing machine, and now I don't know if it's my remote display or the RB X5 remote support that's broken :)

08:54:36LinusNamiconn: i was thinking about the lcd drivers yesterday, and i came to the conclusion that the frame buffer should perhaps be in the lcd-x5.c file
08:54:39amiconnLinusN: The build is still hanging...
08:54:59amiconnNo, the frame buffer isn't hardware dependent
08:55:35amiconnIt will be used both for target and sim (and perhaps other remotes with the same framebuffer format, and same or different resolution)
08:56:00LinusNamiconn: no, it's not hanging, but it won
08:56:05LinusNt show until the next build

08:57:41amiconnLinusN: I think lcd-h100.c, and lcd-recorder.c are in relatively easy to spilt in the generic and target parts, but lcd-h100-remote.c is tricky...
08:58:13RaiderXcan any patch be applied to rockbox for ipods? or only the ones specified for ipods?
08:58:16RaiderXlike this: http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/5535
08:58:33amiconnlcd-h100-remote.c uses the scroll thread both for generic tasks (i.e. scrolling) and hardware specific tasks (hot-plug lcd init)
08:59:17*amiconn has no idea how to split that in a clean way, without inventing just another thread
08:59:27amiconns/just/yet/
08:59:41LinusNamiconn: i guess the target tree driver should export a detection function which is called by the scroll thread
09:00
09:00:05RaiderXpls help?
09:00:10LinusNRaiderX: try it
09:00:40LinusNRaiderX: but chances are that the game isn't adapted for the screen resolution and the buttons
09:00:42RaiderXwell i dont wanan go through all the trouble if its not gonna work :x
09:00:47amiconnLinusN: The detection is done in a tick, but the tick must not init directly. It sends a message to a private queue...
09:00:52RaiderXthe buttons is what i was thinking
09:00:57RaiderXbut it only uses one buttons, select
09:01:02RaiderXand maybe
09:01:05RaiderX*so
09:01:19LinusNRaiderX: just try it
09:01:22RaiderXok
09:01:44amiconnlcd-remote-x5.c does not yet do hot-plug detection afaics
09:01:47LinusNand post your findings in a patch comment
09:01:57LinusNamiconn: no it doesn't
09:02:04amiconn(and the spi driver looks like teh slowness)
09:02:35LinusNamiconn: yes it is slow, but i didn't want to use the asm version until i knew it worked
09:02:49amiconnOk
09:03:14LinusNasm spi is on my todo list
09:03:42amiconnIiuc the 4-gray tomato can go even faster than the monochrome one in the iriver remote
09:04:05LinusNseems so yes
09:04:31amiconnMaybe you can use the fast version for all clocks (if the wires allow it)
09:05:03LinusNhopefully
09:06:00LinusNwould be cool if the asm spi stuff could be reused without copying the code
09:06:56amiconnI don't think that will be possible
09:07:16amiconnThe various bits are probably on different ports
09:07:32LinusNthat can be solved with #define
09:08:11LinusNan spi-remote.c file which includes lcd-remote-target.h
09:08:25LinusNwhich has the #define
09:08:32LinusNfor the ports and pins
09:08:36amiconnHopefully there is no ticking, so you don't need a number of other special measures
09:08:42LinusNtrue
09:09:33amiconnQuiescing /CS can't hurt though
09:11:30LinusNtrue again

09:42:23JdGordonim not sure if logfing it is the best way to go?
09:43:31Bg3rwell, this "unknown button [combo]" shouldn't map to a known action, therefore we return ACTION_NONE

09:47:17JdGordondo we really need a _REPEAT for every action?
09:47:30LinusNBg3r: why not?
09:48:09Bg3rLinusN: imho it would look better...
09:48:59Bg3rJdGordon: currently it's used for not overlapping in the lists when holding the prev/next button, also in the setting's value

09:49:06*JdGordon has implemented this action stuff in about 50% of the code and is sick of it :D
09:49:40JdGordonBg3r: ah yes, we can fix that with a context define then, so we dont have 2 cases in every swicth
09:49:54LinusNBg3r: i think it looks good on larger code snippets, but maybe not on the ButtonActionIdea page

10:56:47Bg3rJdGordon: does this _really_ need to be inline ?
10:56:57Bg3rin fact, does the compiler make it inline ?
10:57:35JdGordonBg3r: i dunno, i just split it out because its there 3 times, and im working on the assumption inlined code works faster than a funciotn call
10:57:53Bg3rthis is a big func
10:57:56JdGordonyoud have to check the .a to actually see if its inlined
11:00
11:00:19Bg3ri think u should return the raw value only if it's a SYS_ event
11:01:27JdGordonit definatly is inlined... i removed the inline and the size shrunk 118bytes
11:01:36Bg3rmore ?
11:01:47JdGordonye
11:01:58Bg3rso, 200 bytes less ?
11:02:05JdGordonthanx cvs, ye
11:02:16JdGordonbut will the removing the inline slow it down?
11:02:24Bg3ri doubt it :)
11:02:37Bg3rit isn't called _so_ often
11:04:00JdGordonit can be called up to 4 times per press
11:05:13Bg3rand button press is checked HZ times/sec
11:07:35JdGordon... i guess we can benchmark it, but no point just yet

11:08:13JdGordonthe wiki page has the latest
11:08:33JdGordonis CONFIG_REMOTE_KEYPAD defined for targets without a remote?
11:10:05LinusNit shouldn't be
11:11:41JdGordoni guess that will probaly be got rid of anyway, so ill check against BUTTON_REMOTE instead
11:14:09LinusNBg3r: as long as do_button_check() isn't called by the button driver, we should be fine

11:59:32LinusNbarrywardell: i'm not surprised
11:59:44barrywardellam I best to try to keep everything in it's own dir in target?
12:00
12:00:42LinusNthe goal is to avoid conditional compilation in the firmware code, and have the target specific stuff in the target tree
12:00:53barrywardellIt seems like the iAudio is half way there
12:01:00LinusNkind of a HAL/BSP style concept
12:01:15barrywardellbut still has some conditional stuff eg. in button.c
12:01:41barrywardellthe target way seems much cleaner and easier to figure out what's going on
12:01:47LinusNyes, the iaudio is not complete, button.c and ata.c are some examples
12:02:13LinusNata.c is an example where some functions could be in the coldfire/ dir
12:03:26barrywardelli was thinking that. They were the two that I had come across.
12:04:19barrywardellI was planning on just adding #ifndef TARGET_TREE to those for the H10 but am worried that that might break the iAudio code
12:05:03LinusNi'm moving the iaudio button stuff now
12:06:19barrywardellok, great. so I should try to use target tree for everything H10 specific then?
12:06:40LinusNyes, please
12:08:02barrywardellwhat about the #defines in button.h?
12:10:56LinusNthey go in iriver/h10/button-target.h
12:11:06LinusNhang on for the x5 example, will commit soonish
12:11:15JdGordonhmm... i did cvsdo add on the keymaps folder and the files inside it but tis still not in the cvs diff?

12:27:36JdGordonhow does the ipod scrolling work in the lists? does it stop you at the end of the list like holding down on iriver does?
12:27:59Paul_The_NerdYes
12:28:22JdGordonk
12:29:01Paul_The_NerdIt stops for a second, then continues though
12:29:05Paul_The_NerdYou don't have to release / stop scrolling
12:33:24midkayyes you do..
12:33:50midkayyour finger might run off the wheel slightly causing it to detect a stop/restart of scrolling but it won't wrap until such an event occurs.
12:34:09JdGordonok good, because thats how it will be after this patch :D
12:34:12midkayit's actually quite easy to fool it that way..

13:11:04LinusNwow, moving the button code defines to the target tree turned out to be a major hassle...
13:11:22sharpeLinusN: the centralizing it?
13:11:30aliaskTechnical issue? Or just time consuming?
13:12:33LinusNwell, the button codes are moved to an include file in the target tree, e.g firmware/target/coldfire/iaudio/x5/button-target.h

13:35:39Jungti1234Rockbox website is slow. is it so me only?
13:35:52Jungti1234ah, TWiki.
13:36:35JdGordon<LinusN> well, the button codes are moved to an include file in the target tree <- couldnt you just do a #include for each target in button.h? then thats the only file that will need changing?
13:37:21solexxLinusN: http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/Codev/SecurityAlertCmdExecWithConfigure
13:37:27solexxConfigure script allows arbitrary shell command execution (CVE-2006-3819)
13:37:35LinusNJdGordon: that's exactly what is being done, but button.h is included by many files, for example all the plugins
13:39:03solexxLinusN: in other words: yes :)
13:39:12JdGordon.. leave it till after actions are implemented and then the only file that woud need to include the button.h is the keymap file for that target

15:06:05JdGordonthe problem is that untill that is fixed rockbox is completly unusable
15:06:21dionoea_workthen they'll fix it rapidly :D
15:06:39*linuxstb makes mental note not to do cvs update today...
15:06:48Bg3r:D
15:07:13Bg3rlinuxstb: no, u're wrong, better do it _now_ ;)
15:07:49linuxstbI'm too busy cursing portalplayer and dreaming of having a datasheet for the PP5020
15:07:58JdGordonhehe
15:08:31JdGordonso... volunteers to do keymapping on the recorder (i have a tiny bit for that one), player, ondio and x5?
15:08:34dionoea_workwhile you're talking about PP5020, has anyone started work on using both cores in rockbox ?
15:09:05dionoea_workJdGordon: i can do the recorder when i get back from work (i just bough a brand new usb AA cable)
15:09:16linuxstbdan_a mentioned yesterday that he was playing with that.
15:09:23Bg3rJdGordon: unfortunately i can't help u with this, as i have only h340
15:10:03dionoea_worklinuxstb: neat :) 1 audio thread on one core and all the other threads on the other core ? or something more complex ?
15:10:34Bg3rJdGordon: in fact the target's manual can help u a bit ...
15:10:41*linuxstb wants more Rockbox devs hacking the PP5020...
15:11:04JdGordonBg3r: yes and no
15:11:19Bg3rlinuxstb: bring a .pdf and i'm sure there will be volunteers
15:11:22*dionoea_work would be willing to help (i never did any asm before ... but it shouldn' be too hard)
15:11:33linuxstbBg3r: I've got lots of PDFs...
15:11:52JdGordonpp5020 is in the 4g riught?
15:11:57Bg3rJdGordon: i said a bit ;)
15:12:22*JdGordon has access to a 4g that needs a new hdd that i can play with
15:12:36JdGordonbut the only asm ive ever done was mips and i wasnt very good
15:14:10JdGordonanyway.. back to the buttons
15:14:54JdGordonoh, is it safe to use the same define for the standard select and goto-browser in the wps? its the same on iriver but others?
15:16:46JdGordonactually. change that... I tihnk the wps should not use any standard defines (possibly the same for fm and rec)
15:16:54linuxstbJdGordon: Yes, all the 4g and later ipods (including the minis, Nano and 5g) use either the pp5020, pp5021 or pp5022, and they all seem to be compatibie with each other.
15:18:19Bg3rlinuxstb: in fact, what are the differences between them (if it happens to know ...)
15:18:53dionoea_worklinuxstb: btw, what work (apart from the dual core stuff) needs to be done on the pp5020 ?
15:21:24linuxstbBg3r: The PP5022 uses less power and has more IRAM compared to the PP5020. No information at all is available on the PP5021, but it was launched at the same time as the PP5022.
15:22:31linuxstbdionoea_work: The dual core stuff is more or less completely understood. I think the only thing we don't know is how to independently set the speed of the two CPUs (which I think is possible only to a limited degree anyway).
15:23:07Bg3rhm, i'm wondering if there is any chance PP to open their datasheets if apple refuses to work with them in the future...
15:23:16dionoea_workso that's like feedning it random stuff and seeing how it reacts ? or reading apple firmware dissassembly ?
15:23:45linuxstbBut we generally know almost nothing about the PP5020 - it's all just guesswork. For example, I'm trying to get rolo working reliably at the moment, and it works fine if I don't enable the CPU cache in Rockbox, but with the CPU cache enabled, I can't get it working reliably.

15:28:35dionoea_worklinuxstb: how did the ipodlinux guys and you find what is currently known ? guessing ? reading firmware ?
15:29:23JdGordonsomething must be wrong... after adding the wps code we are down 500 bytes from cvs.. :D
15:29:45linuxstbI found out what I know by reading the IPL source code (and some guesswork). I suppose the IPL people read the firmware and guessed.

15:41:21JdGordoni dont think it will be all that painful to fix, just have to figure out the problem
15:41:39LinusNprobably because the wps enters a new state when doing ff and rew
15:42:44JdGordonye, i tinhk its something like that
15:43:34JdGordonalso the code isnt easy to follow, where is the logic in the ffwd case falling through to the rewind case?

15:54:27JdGordonill do one last diff so you guys can get some targets done while i sleep
15:54:43Bg3rwhat happened with the WPS ?
15:55:32JdGordonit works except prev/next track and seeking in a track isnt very reliable
15:57:40LinusNgoffa: for example, the patch in the tracker assumes that all targets have a Right button, which they don't
15:58:39LinusNit's not a big deal, we just won't offer the quick-queue feature on targets that lack buttons
15:58:53LinusNbut the patch is not cvs-material because of this
15:59:18pekujaI'm having a bit of a problem with my iriver H320 running CVS-060602 of Rockbox. It seems like the battery drains rather quickly even when the player is turned off. Is this a known issue, a misconfiguration or just my battery going bad?

16:00:56JdGordonactions.diff is just under 100kb..
16:02:02LinusNpekuja: you should really consider upgrading to a later version, since your version has the dreaded USBOTG bug which literally *eats* battery
16:02:31pekujaLinusN, heh, could be that then I guess
16:02:36pekujaLinusN, but while it's turned off?
16:02:51LinusNwell that could be a sign of your battery going bad
16:02:56pekujayeah
16:03:06pekujaI'll have to test how long it lasts while actually using it
16:03:19LinusNbut upgrade before you do that
16:03:43goffaLinusN: yeah... i think it would be better to have it committed anyway for those that can utilize it.. since it doesn't take anything away from existing players
16:04:03goffait just adds functionality to those that can use it
16:04:24goffalike not all players have recording or fm radio
16:04:33LinusNin the current state, i suspect it doesn't even compile on all targets
16:05:09goffayeah... probably not.. but isn't there a way to disable that for targets that don't support it?
16:05:44LinusNi told you
16:05:53LinusNit's not a big deal, we just won't offer the quick-queue feature on targets that lack buttons
16:06:07LinusNbut someone has to:
16:06:13JdGordon*cough* can be added easily once actions are in :D

20:11:24aarond_yah
20:11:33filRbut perhaps someone can help me anyway .. i suddenly can't see any of the files on my 5g ipod. i can however see the directories.
20:11:41filRwell, that's the whole point of irc. to idle. :)
20:11:51aarond_yeah I dont get it either
20:12:06aarond_even after I got cable I dont idle unless I leave in hurry
20:12:35filRi even joined a special idle room .. where you get points for saying nothing.
20:12:41filRbut it grew boring after a week or two. :)

20:12:55pekujaI've played that
20:12:57pekujait was too hard

20:15:31aarond_rockbox doesn like some AAC files I just made for some reason
20:15:51aarond_and I cant stand the gaps in regular ipod firmware
20:15:59aarond_the gaps seem worse than usual
20:16:03filRgapless playback ftw.
20:16:15filRhm, well, i don't really like aac though.
20:16:40aarond_so I load it into rockbox which I havent used in a while, then head out to work and pfftttttt it crashes when I try playing them
20:16:47aarond_I like it a lot more than mp3
20:17:18aarond_just like the day before I only had a few files downloaded and they were flac, I put them on because I thought it supported flac, but nope
20:17:21filRto proprietary. (well, mp3 isn't much better)
20:17:34filRhm, rockbox does actually support flac.
20:17:47aarond_maybe not on nano
20:17:47filRat least on my ipod i can play flac. or could. now i just can't see them anymore. ;)(
20:18:04filRhm, it should be able to play flac on nano as well afaik.

20:18:38filRthat is what is so weird about it.
20:18:41aarond_might be file extension problem? thats all I can think of
20:19:24obofilR: hold down menu to bring up the quick screen - what's the view setting at the bottom?
20:20:15filRhm, the view setting? under general settings?
20:20:46obowell, quick screen is easier to get to - I can't remember where it is in the normal menu :)
20:20:54filRha, ok, found it.
20:20:55filRthanks.
20:21:07filRi knew it was something simple like a borked setting.
20:21:27filR(the weird thing is - i even formatted / reinstalled rockbox. guess it didn't change the setting oO)
20:21:52obonope, the settings are stored in an otherwise unused sector on the harddrive
20:22:40filRreally? neet. pretty weird place to put them though, isn't it?
20:23:04k8toobo???????
20:23:10oboyup - there is talk that it will be moved to a config file system at some point
20:23:11oboyes?

20:23:32filRhehe
20:23:38amiconnk8to: why?
20:23:49oboyeah, that's what I was thinking...
20:24:00amiconnThere are reasons why the settings are stored as they are stored
20:24:02k8tothere is a filesystem available!
20:24:10filR*starts copying 30gb music again after formatting his ipod*
20:24:45amiconnk8to: (1) The settings saving is older than write support in the filesystem. (2) Using a binary sector is faster
20:25:34k8tois it necessary to access the settings very often?

20:29:42obothe current aac decoder is a bit flakey
20:29:51aarondoh ok
20:30:03aarondnever seen it happen before
20:30:09aarondmight have been the encoder I used
20:30:23filRaarond: itunes aac encoder?
20:30:23aarondthere seems to be a larger than usual gap between tracks thats all
20:30:35k8tothat is probably a cputime thing
20:30:38aarondin apple firmware I mean
20:30:51aarondso I wanted to hear them in rockbox but they all make it crash
20:31:06aarondno I used a little freeware app to convert from flac
20:31:32oboI think I remember someone saying that itunes encoded ones worked... (but I could be wrong)
20:31:33k8toconsider ogg for higher quality for filesize ;P
20:31:37aarondits called Max
20:31:52filRoh well, if you converted them yourself, a dirty way around the problem would probably be encoding them as ogg (or mp3). :D
20:31:53aarondwell yeah I want to but it will eat more battery yes?
20:31:59filRi also use max ..
20:32:21aarondI just got it cause I needed something to convert from flac and it sounded good
20:32:25filRk8to: i wouldn't go so far as to say ogg vorbis has the better quality when compared to aac. :)
20:32:34k8tofilR: i was comparing it to mp3
20:32:41k8tosorry if that was unclear
20:32:44filRk8to: in that case i agree with you.
20:32:45filRhehe.
20:32:45oboI think the current aac decoder will use more battery than mp3/ogg
20:32:51aarondI just dont want to use mp3, aac and ogg sound better
20:33:04aarondhmm ok, I might have time to convert to ogg before work
20:33:17k8tocertain faad uses much more cputime on my x86
20:33:20k8tothan libvorbis
20:33:25aaronddamn what am I thinking, my computer is too slow
20:33:33filRaarond: quite frankly, i doubt you, or any of use, or anybody, will here the difference once you go 192kbit. (especially on a portable device)
20:33:38aarondI might do as mp3 just for now

20:36:03aarondwish I had time, blah
20:36:09k8toamiconn: because of the decoder used?
20:36:24linuxstbamiconn: It may be closer now with the change to -O for libmad. I (or someone) need to test the effect of -O on other codecs.
20:36:39 Part Short1
20:36:39filRk8to: that is why i try to get as much flac as possible. then i don't have to start worrying about whether or not i might be hearing encoding artifacts.
20:36:54k8tofilR: i use a 1 gig player
20:37:08filRk8to: well, that should get you about .. 2-4 albums. :D
20:37:16k8tofilR: woo
20:37:51*amiconn is annoyed by his non-working sound and goes to reboot
20:37:54aarondI would use flac for now if it would play them
20:38:04 Part amiconn
20:38:37filRk8to: space is definelty an issue. but i just recently bought a 30gig ipod and am currently too lazy to reencode music (from flac to lame -V 4) before copying it onto the ipod.
20:38:39linuxstbaarond: There is a patch to improve mp4 parsing on the patch tracker. If you don't want to patch and compile Rockbox yourself, I think senab's "experimental builds" include it. I would be interested to see if that patch fixes your problem.
20:39:00linuxstbNone of the devs use AAC, so the codec is a little abandoned.
20:39:12k8tofilR: i encoded my stuff at 160kbps largely because it hought the cputime was being exhausted on the device, but it turns out it the oggs generated for trance music for some reason give the player indigestion
20:39:31k8to(native firmware)
20:39:41k8towhich is fine because trance is not very good music
20:39:47filRlol.
20:39:50aarondnever had a problem with any AAC files before so I thought it was weird
20:41:09linuxstbHow did you encode these one?

20:41:51aarondset it to AAC 192

20:43:10aarondoh ok

20:43:28aarondapples, rockbox crashes or something
20:43:52aarondshould my nano play flac?
20:43:56linuxstbYes.
20:44:20linuxstbAssuming they are .flac files, and not FLAC in a .ogg file.

20:44:30goffawell storage wise
20:44:32goffaplays them fine
20:44:46aarondthey say .flac
20:44:54linuxstbAnd what does Rockbox do?
20:46:00aarondsays there is no file or something after I try playing, could be because the rest of the torrent wasnt done? but the files I tried were so it doesnt make sense
20:46:09aarondIm going to try it again now
20:46:42linuxstbAre you sure the files were completely downloaded?
20:46:48filRdo you have flac installed on your system? you could try checking the flac files with "flac -t song.flac" in the console.
20:46:51amiconnTorrents aren't done in order, and depending on the client, the files might be all mixed up until the download is complete
20:46:53filR(go flac crc!)
20:47:18amiconnAt least the original client does that
20:47:58filRyou could also try playing the flac file with vlc/cog/... (but that will not necessarily ensure that the file is not damaged)
20:48:15aarondthey were downloading one bye one and I put ones on that had stopped

21:14:11filRaarond: because i am too lazy to convert it. also flac playback is very efficient (but it has to read a lot of data)
21:15:18aarondwhich is why I worry about battery
21:15:32aarondthough I only need it for an hour for the trip and maybe a little at work
21:16:22aarondis flac the best of its kind? Im guessing yes due to the popularity
21:16:37aarondI dont usually use it, just wanted it for the above reason
21:16:52filRaarond: well, it is the most popular. there isn't really a "best"
21:17:10aarondsince its lossless
21:17:11filRthere are ones with better tags, and ones with better compression. but it is the most wide-spread and supports the most plattforms.
21:17:31aarondI havent tried apple lossless but wouldnt be like AIFF or Wave?
21:17:47filRhm, not it would be like flac basically.
21:18:03aarondcompressed just a little?
21:18:12aarondwith not loss of quality, ic
21:18:31aarondI used to keep up with formats but I kind of lost track years ago
21:18:40filRhm, probablly compressed better than flac.
21:19:00filRbut .. who cares if the 40mb file is 1mb larger or smaller? :)
21:19:03aarondapple lossless?
21:19:08aarondyeah really
21:19:11filR:)
21:19:29aarondI'll stick with AAC for my nano, but maybe I will back up CDs on dvd some day
21:20:13filRif you want to do that, i really do recommend going lossless. harddrives are cheap these days - and you can't go wrong with lossless.
21:21:33aarondusually my CDs only get ripped once and then go in a box though
21:21:53aarondIve been meaning to convert again to AAC or something but its too much work

22:27:19dionoeaweird ... is gcc 4.x.x mandatory ?
22:28:41 Part Benni ("User is away.")
22:31:36linuxstb_For SH, I think so, yes. You also need to apply a patch to get it to work with Rockbox.
22:31:49amiconndionoea: Read the wiki, and update your sh-elf-gcc
22:31:58dionoeathat's what i'm doing :)
22:32:11amiconnThe recommendation is gcc 4.0.3, rockbox patched
22:32:44 Join JazzBone [0] (n=chatzill@p5091A06D.dip0.t-ipconnect.de)
22:32:47dionoeai just had my old crosscompile env available ...
22:32:51dionoeabut that didn't work :)
22:33:32amiconnReason: We use -Os now, and there's a bug (in all sh-elf-gcc versions I tested) that produces invalid jumptables with -O2, -O3 and -Os under certain conditions.
22:33:52amiconngcc 4.0 and up do a better job with -Os than 3.x
22:34:05dionoeaok, thanks for the explanation
22:36:57amiconnI reported the jumptable problem to the gcc team, and I know *what* the proper fix would be, but not how to implement it. The patch is safe, but not 100% "clean"
22:37:26dionoeaand they still didn't fix it upstream ?
22:37:52amiconnNot sure... up to 4.1.0 there was no fix
22:38:06amiconnMaybe the sh maintainer is busy/unreachable/whatever

22:56:39filR2does anyone use last.fm / audioscrobbler with rockbox?
22:57:10oboyes :)
22:58:03filR2w00tness. i assume there is a patch i have to "install"? probably i will need to upload the .scrobbler files manually?
22:58:06dionoeaold bugs/patches/feature requests should be cleaned from the tracker (if they don't apply anymore)
22:58:55obofilR2: yes, there is a patch - you need to either setup a dev enviroment, or use an experimental build that has the patch
22:59:18obothere is a perl script to upload the .scrobbler.log file to last.fm
22:59:28filR2u, crap. that sounds like no fun. (compiling rockbox)
22:59:52markunit's a lot of fun!

23:02:46dionoeais the ipod 5g the only target with slow LCD code ?
23:03:17amiconnNo, but the one where it hurts most
23:03:32amiconn(because the LCD is so large.... too large for a DAP imho)
23:03:39dionoeaok, thanks
23:03:55*filR likes his 5g screen. :(
23:03:58linuxstb_Too big for music, and too small for video...

23:06:58amiconnBut already too large to be really portable
23:07:43filRbut when or where would one watch videos on a portable device (and not a laptop)?
23:08:26amiconnVideo on the small screens is imho a nice gimmick, even usable a bit. But far from the 'must have' it seems to be according to the request we get

23:09:02dan_aI think if I had video I'd use it on the 3 hour ferry trips I have to make quite regularly
23:09:13dan_aBut it isn't a killer feature at all for me
23:09:36dionoeathe screen is kind of small to watch a movie
23:09:38amiconnfilR: * longer runtime than a laptop. * less hassle
23:09:43filRi agree. now if you could stream tv/videos onto your portable device on the other hand (eg. on your cell phone) ..
23:09:53filRamiconn: true.
23:09:56amiconnThe AV700 has a TV tuner
23:10:19filRnice.
23:10:47dionoeaanalog TV or DVB-T ?
23:11:22 Part barrywardell
23:11:24amiconnDVB-T
23:11:46filRi have even seen cell phones with tv tuners (dvb i believe).

23:11:59dionoeathat's neat :)
23:12:26dionoeacountry=us ... do they have DVB-T in the USA ?
23:12:45amiconnI've switched to english before posting the link

23:21:05pekujacan anyone tell me whether rockbox even technically can have anything to do with the battery drainage while the device is turned off?
23:21:25pekujaI'm not trying to blame anybody, I just want to know if my battery is dying on me.
23:21:42pekujaI never noticed this drainage before I installed Rockbox, but that could be a coincidence.

23:23:59gamerD00dpekuja, i could have sworn RB had not fully shut off on me once and caused my batt to drain, but hasn't happened since
23:24:23dionoeaamiconn: should be fixed now (tested on recorder sim). Thanks
23:24:41dionoea(you should have a bot that reports failed builds here)
23:25:04Bagderwell, you should always check the build page after commits
23:25:28Bagderimho
23:25:32pekujagamerD00d, interesting
23:25:33dionoea:)
23:25:46pekujaanyways, I'm suspecting the battery is dying
23:26:04pekujaI wish there was a definite way of knowing that though :-/
23:26:27pekujaare the batteries on these things (iriver h3xx) replacable?
23:27:03Bgerpekuja: yep
23:27:31Bgerat least u can "upgrade" it to one with higher capacity
23:27:32gamerD00dpekuja
23:27:35gamerD00da way to test
23:27:43gamerD00dis to boot either into disk mode or original firmware
23:27:53pekujawhat's disk mode?
23:28:00gamerD00di say diskmode assuming you're talking about an ipod, sorry
23:28:15pekujahmn
23:28:19gamerD00dare you talking about an ipod?
23:28:26pekujano, I'm talking about an iriver
23:28:32gamerD00dk, then disregard that
23:28:40gamerD00dtry the original firmware again is all i can suggest
23:29:08Bgerpekuja: but reset its settings from the menu
23:29:10gamerD00di did hear from the devs at one point that the implementation on some devices isn't thorough for charging due to not fully understanding some of the pins
23:29:27pekujaBger, which settings?
23:29:41Bgerthe original firmware's settings
23:29:51Bgerrockbox messes them sometimes
23:30:24gamerD00d? never heard of such a thing, however i only have ipod experience with RB
23:31:15BgergamerD00d: i'm talking about iriver h3xx
23:31:35Bgerdionoea: green
