00:24:22yipeI have been having SUCH a tough time with my ipod lately
00:24:30yipenow the battery doesn't seem to be charging right
00:24:37yipeI've had it like a month
00:24:50stripwax_what does "charging right" mean to you?
00:25:31yipewhen I plug the ipod in, the battery should charge, if I leave it plugged in all night, it should be fully charged the next morning, giving it the power to play music for at least a couple hours
00:26:52yipemy expectations of the battery and charging are not being met
00:27:01stripwax_Rockbox doesn't implement the USB charging parameters fully meaning it will charge only very slowly when charging over USB when running rockbox. So for now you can either charge from a 12v wall adapter, or boot to the apple firmware or disk mode and charge over usb.
00:27:14yipeahhhhhhhh
00:27:28yipethat makes a big difference
00:27:41stripwax_At least until someone figures out how to reverse engineer the usb charge current for the (undocumented) chipset
00:27:53yipeokay
00:28:14stripwax_out of interest, what are your "expectations" for rockbox? ;-)
00:28:49 Join courtc [0] (n=court@c-71-199-169-45.hsd1.ga.comcast.net)
00:28:57yipeI realise rockbox isn't perfect, but I wanted to bypass the annoying apple DRM, I didn't want to use ID3 tags, I wanted to play .ogg and .flac
00:29:30yipeI can handle occasional freeze-ups, or crashes, that doesn't bother me
00:29:58yipebut when my battery dies at night, and I plug it in, and the next morning the battery is STILL so dead it can't even boot the ipod, that's a problem
00:30:04yipebut now I know about the USB thing
00:30:16stripwax_ok. cos battery life (in particular on ipod) is currently not very long under rockbox (at least compared to apple os)
00:30:29yipeI've noticed
00:30:37stripwax_(but this can only get better as more work is carried out)
00:30:46yipeand read about it in the FAQ
00:31:22yipeis the rockbox.ipod the only file I need to change to update to the newest daily build?
00:31:52stripwax_no.......
00:32:03stripwax_you download the .zip file, and you unzip it (all of it)
00:32:08yipeokay
00:32:19stripwax_the zip file contains probably a couple hundred files..
00:32:29 Join NsN [0] (i=NsN@wh391.stw.stud.uni-saarland.de)
00:32:30yipewill the themes and wps's I put on there stay, or will I have to reload them?
00:32:38stripwax_they'll stay, don't worry
00:33:11 Quit ender` (" Lisp hackers have to be bound (to-do 'it) ...")
00:33:25stripwax_the daily builds include rockbox.ipod (the main operating system) and the .rockbox folder which contains all the plugins (which must match the version of rockbox.ipod).
00:33:36yipeokay
00:33:43peturand the codecs of course
00:34:16stripwax_right. in my mind codecs are still plugins ;-)
00:34:30peturin a way yes ;)
00:36:02 Part Paul_the_Nerd
00:36:15stripwax_anyone else think the key bindings for minesweeper on ipod are basically awful? wheel for up/down, select+down to select, up to quit ... ??
00:37:06courtcWhat would you suggest?
00:38:35stripwax_left/right for left/right for starters. select to flag, long select to clear/mine, hold to quit
00:39:15 Join besonen_mobile [0] (n=besonen_@dsl-db.pacinfo.com)
00:39:25courtcSee, that sounds worse to me.
00:39:26stripwax_or maybe just select to clear/mine, long select to flag, but clear/mine old happens when you release the button.
00:39:34stripwax_Hm, why is that worse?
00:39:53courtcWhy not use the wheel?
00:40:02stripwax_wheel for up/down seems completely unnatural to me (but then I play Jewels a lot, and wheel is left/right)
00:40:25stripwax_when I said left/right for left/right I meant up/down for up/down of course .. left/right work fine currently
00:40:27courtcYea, wheel => left/right seems more appropriate.
00:41:22stripwax_which leaves up/down for up/down. and left and right are then unused? also left and right work fine in jewels as left and right ..
00:41:40courtcwheel for left/right with wrap seems easiest. also with some heuristics to make sure that you can only select active mine spots.
00:42:12courtcleft/right/down are for music playing ;)
00:42:19courtcmenu is quit.
00:42:50stripwax_Not while playing any games I know of .. select+menu is often quit but menu on its own is pretty uncommon.
00:43:08stripwax_especially for any games where up/down/left/right directional controls are natural!
00:43:24stripwax_maybe it's just me.
00:43:40courtcWell, I come from ipodlinux, and personally have never used rockbox.
00:43:53stripwax_Really? You should try it sometime!
00:44:19courtcNot very interested in the actual os, however the code interests me :)
00:44:27stripwax_:-)
00:44:56stripwax_I'd love to have spare time to get some secrets out of the apple os..
00:46:26courtcYes, it does take a lot of spare time.. and patience...
00:47:02stripwax_Ooh.. anyone happen to know if the fact that the ipod (5g) display looks kinda "interlacy" is just a feature of the ipod or if there is some hardware setting that we aren't using properly yet?
00:47:08stripwax_(i've not used retailos)
00:47:18stripwax_looking 'interlacy' in rockbox that is...
00:50:19stripwax_courtc - actually does ipodlinux look that way?
00:50:46 Quit lodesi ("leaving")
00:50:56courtcIt's probably the fact that you aren't using the BCM.
00:51:22courtcIt's probably the same for ipodlinux, but I don't own an ipod video.
00:51:43courtcWe use the same lcd functions though.
00:53:23jhMikeSpetur: I think I'm going to do what you suggested and release changes using master mode for recording as before. The issues are proving thorny and can be worked out separately.
00:53:24stripwax_courtc - I don't really know - I sortof thought we were using the BCM but only in the sense that we're shipping the entire framebuffer to the BCM which is just driving the lcd. Maybe i'll try retailos and see how that happens to look.
00:57:17peturjhMikeS: I think it's the best way to go. Don't try to change too much in one go
00:57:38peturI'll try to test as much as I can
00:58:11jhMikeSpetur: LinusN called me "chicken" for it! :p

01:26:56linuxstbyipe: Is your battery charged? Maybe your USB port isn't supplying power?
01:27:02midkayi have a 5G 60gb.
01:27:09yipeno, it's not charged
01:27:22linuxstbThat would explain the disconnects I guess.
01:27:23yipethat's my main problem, WHY isn't it charging
01:27:54linuxstbAre you connecting directly to your PC, or via a hub?
01:28:00yipedirectly
01:28:24linuxstbYou could try a different port, maybe they don't all provide power.

01:33:34yipeno clue, but I know I can't afford it, I'm a TA
01:35:02l0deHere's a tip on getting one for free, call around to hotels and ask if they have one in their lost and found
01:35:15l0deI used to work at a hotel and we had about three dozen that no one ever came and got.
01:35:17yipelol
01:35:18scorchethat is stealing
01:35:22l0deSame with phone chargers.
01:35:23yipeI should try that
01:35:31*yipe is a religion student
01:35:40yipeand I'm totally willing to try that :P
01:35:48l0deScorche- the items are never reclaimed. They are eventually hucked out.
01:35:59scorchethat doesnt matter
01:36:05scorcheit is claiming something that isnt yours to claim
01:36:07l0deBecause most people just buy a new one rather than going to the cost of having one shipped to them.
01:36:28yipehey, I'm a religion student, and I say it's okay
01:36:40l0deScorche, if we follow your logic, the item is never used, and eventually discarded. By my logic, someone uses the item, and is happier.
01:36:44l0deWhich one is morally right?
01:36:46yipetaking what would be thrown out has a long and noble tradition behind it
01:36:56*petur wonders what religion that could be :p
01:37:01yipejust ask the two-by-twos

01:48:14pagefaultI really hacked it into the source
01:48:27yipenobuo uematsu and yoshinori mitsuda
01:48:30pagefaultit has to be cleaned up a lot
01:48:46preglowyipe: damn straight
01:48:58preglowyasunori, btw :>
01:49:03pagefaultI think I may steal some code from zsnes
01:49:11pagefaultwe have a sample caching code
01:49:22pagefaultso once a sample is decoded it is saved and cached
01:49:25pagefaultit speeds things up a lot
01:50:16pagefaultright now every sample has to be processed when it plays
01:50:26yipeI think my cable is broken or something :(
01:50:37yipemy ipod just won't stay connected
01:50:56pagefaultmy brother has 5th gen ipod
01:51:00pagefaultbut he won't let me touch it
01:51:06pagefaulthe is afraid I will ruin it
01:51:24yipewell.... mine worked perfectly until I installed rockbox on it....
01:51:34yipeand then everything went straight to hell
01:51:34preglowpagefault: sounds like caching might eat a lot of ram
01:51:47Mikachupreglow: but you don't need to buffer 30MB of mp3s when playing spc
01:51:54pagefaultI am told there is IRAM on the ARM chip
01:52:01pagefaultso I can put it there
01:52:18Mikachuiram is the smallest of all the memory available
01:52:26pagefaultit doesn't need much
01:52:27yipeand I really really really wanted rockbox
01:52:32yipebut it's just not working for me
01:52:35pagefault20k max
01:52:36preglowMikachu: i don't think you can use mp3 buffer ram
01:52:37linuxstbYou have 48KB of IRAM on the ipods (and other swcodec targets).
01:52:47preglowMikachu: that would mean preprocessing an entire spc at load time
01:52:50 Quit midkay ("Leaving")
01:52:58Mikachupreglow: what if you made it a plugin instead?
01:53:00yipeunless everything can be blamed on this cable
01:53:07Mikachualthough i suppose that would be less useful
01:53:08preglowMikachu: why would we want to make a codec a plugin?
01:53:11pagefaultSPC's are 64kb but 32kb is only actual samples
01:53:16pagefaultthe rest is program code and rom
01:53:17Mikachupreglow: to use the mp3 buffer ram :)
01:53:37linuxstbyipe: Rockbox uses the USB mode in the Apple firmware, so it's very unlikely your problem is related to Rockbox.
01:53:54pagefaultit just has to be very fast memory wherever I put it
01:54:02preglowpagefault: sounds like iram would be nice sample storage space, then
01:54:21Mikachuaren't you already using the iram for the codec program code?
01:54:26Mikachuor was that just a part?
01:54:35Mikachunever mind me, i've been away for too long
01:54:36yipetomorrow I'm going to buy a new ipod USB cable....
01:54:41pagefaultno I am not using iram for program code
01:54:42preglowmy guess is using it for samples will be wiser
01:54:44Mikachuyipe: don't you have a friend with one?
01:54:45yipeI hope that solves my problems

01:55:32pagefaultif I can get it running well on my poor H10
01:55:37pagefaultthen it should run fine on anything else
01:56:32linuxstbIf it's almost realtime without IRAM, then it should be fine once you start using it.
01:56:36yipeI wish I had bought another brand mp3 player :(

02:03:50linuxstbpagefault: Is any source available to play audible?
02:04:07pagefaultlinuxstb, not that I am aware of, but I think the format is documented
02:04:19*yipe /exec yipe -v
02:04:22preglowthen there's the drm
02:04:41pagefaultyeah
02:04:51pagefaultit sucks to not be able to listen to a book you legally purchased
02:04:56linuxstbSo does audible have a monopoly on audio books?
02:05:17Mikachuthat's some great incentive, if you steal it you can use it anywhere, if you buy it you can't
02:05:51pagefaultpretty much they do if you want them at an affordable price
02:05:58pagefaultcd's are expensive at amazon
02:06:06pagefaultand lots of things you can only find there
02:06:21Mikachuso can't you just recompress it?
02:06:38pagefaultthats the current method
02:06:44pagefaultyou use the directshow filter to transcode
02:06:53pagefaultbut you lose the chapter markers
02:07:29pagefaultor you burn to cdrw and rip it

02:32:41 Nick S0ap is now known as Soap (n=Soap@unaffiliated/s0ap)
02:33:06TrueJournalsHate to say this, but since you used an unofficial installer... you probably won't get any help here
02:33:18TrueJournalsUnless someone here happens to have used the same one as you...
02:33:21Daemonicwell its easier then doing it via all the bin files...
02:33:49TrueJournalslol... true... but you'll probably have to ask over at ipodwizard
02:33:54Soapthat's like saying driving to your mailbox at the end of the drive is easier than walking.
02:33:58Soapit's true, but missing the point.
02:34:48aliaskFor ipl problems, you'll have to ask them, but for the themes issue, what is actually happening?
02:34:51Soapthe instructions, esp. for windows, are step-by-step. All you need to do is cut and paste, replacing N with the number you found out in the first step.
02:34:53Daemonicok well no one else here used the unofficial installer?
02:35:11aliaskI don't think the themes issue has anything to do with the installer.
02:35:23Daemonicwell in windows my ipod kept messing up cuz of some sysinfo file...so i tried here at work with un official isntaller and it worked.
02:35:48TrueJournalsCan you link to the installer you used? I don't have an iPod, but maybe I could look at it a bit and help you out...
02:36:21linuxstbDaemonic: AFAIK, the ipodwizard installer just installs the ipodlinux bootloader, not ipodlinux itself. It's just used to give you a boot menu to choose between Rockbox and the Apple firmware.

02:41:26Daemonicokay
02:42:28Daemonici clicked a new theme but after it "loads" it gores back to what it was
02:43:06TrueJournalsI have a quick question... if I change the splashscreen that shows up to be full screen (the screen that shows up after debug info when booting), do I need to rebuild just the actual firmware, or also the bootloader?
02:44:06aliaskTrueJournals: Just the firmware
02:44:19TrueJournalsok, thanks
02:44:21aliaskDaemonic: Just change the WPS, not the theme.
02:46:12Daemonici did

02:48:58Daemonicwell there are 3...i think the one i changed to was like....began with a B
02:50:21aliaskOk, for simplicity, try changing to iCatcher
02:52:35Daemonici tried and that stays the samre
02:52:39aliaskIf that doesn't work, check that the files are all on the player. You should have both a file called iCatcher.wps, and a folder called iCatcher in /.rockbox/wps

03:52:37DeefThought some people here would have it
03:53:33godzirrajust ask
03:53:36DeefWell my question is, does the USBOTG only let you plug a camera in it and transfer?
03:53:52DeefOr does it actually work as a file manager to any USB stick?
03:53:54godzirrathats pretty much teh definition of USB OTG I thought.
03:54:00godzirrahmm, not sure of that.
03:54:21DeefTrying to decide between a h340 and an iPod

03:54:31godzirrano contest
03:54:33godzirra*h
03:54:39PaulJamrockbox doen't support usb on the go. for that you have to boot the iriver firmware
03:54:41godzirraI wish I could find a place to buy an h340 that isnt ebay.
03:54:54DeefYeah, I'm okay with that Pauljam
03:55:02 Quit tidav (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))

03:55:12godzirraDamn, that sucks
03:55:17godzirraI didnt know -any- stores had them anymore
03:55:27DeefThat was about the 7th I tried
03:55:35PaulJamand you should check the misticriver forum to see if your camera/usb-stick is supported
03:55:41DeefI tried everything on the list for iRiver Australia

03:56:29DeefI more want to know if it can handle data on it, or just pull images out
03:58:03PaulJamyou can't directly play or view files from an external device. you need to copy them to the player first
04:00
04:00:13PaulJambut the iriver firmware is a little restricted concerning copying via usbotg, for example you can't select multiple files to copy at once.

04:06:34DeefWhat do you think, h340 or iPod 5G?
04:08:10PaulJami'm not sure, but propably i would choose the h340
04:08:27Deef*nods*
04:09:20DeefAlso been wondering about that camera to iPod device they've got
04:09:27aliaskIt depends on what you want. The H340 is a much better player, but it's plain fat.
04:09:39DeefYeah, looks aren't a concern
04:09:59aliaskMine wore a hole in my pants because the corner kept rubbing it.
04:10:07Deeflol
04:10:08Soapbetter in what way?
04:10:09aliaskSo it isn't purely aesthetic.
04:10:27aliaskLine in, line out, usbotg
04:10:35Deefrecords and has radio

04:11:04aliaskYes
04:11:06Deefsweet
04:11:17aliaskOn the H340, one from Line Out, and the other in the regular headphones slot.
04:11:24Deefoh
04:11:30DeefThere's a regular slot as well
04:11:35DeefNever knew that lol
04:11:56aliaskAnd I also hate the scrollwheel.
04:12:10aliask(of iPods)
04:12:10DeefI like that thing
04:12:20DeefThe copying device for the iPod dumps the raw image on the iPod, no optimizing
04:12:36aliaskAnd that's the way it should do it.
04:12:38DeefSo I'm wondering how that makes it perform when viewing
04:12:40Deefyeah
04:13:04aliaskExif thumbnails could be read.
04:13:04DeefBut since the iPod is speedy because it mutilates your images, I wonder how it handles full sized stuff
04:14:02Soapwhy do you say that?
04:14:44DeefThe iPod views images without delay, but that's because iTunes transcodes for its small screen
04:14:47Deef.. from what I've read
04:15:11DeefYou put photos on it via iTunes, which actually puts a dumbed down copy, not the original data
04:15:32DeefAllowing it to view them fast like it does
04:15:36PaulJami don't think the ipod can show photos that weren't transferred via itunes (with apple fimware)
04:15:36aliaskIt could just encode a thumnail into the EXIF data
04:16:16DeefApparently the camera to iPod device lets you view them
04:16:32Deef(from Cnet or IGN)
04:17:08DeefIt said you need iTunes to take them OFF the iPod, at which point it copies new, dumbed down versions back to the iPod
04:17:32DeefSo I wonder how it copes viewing 2M images in the meantime
04:18:59DeefIf the h340's USBOTG isn't hugely more functional than the camera-to-pod device, I might swing towards the iPod
04:19:36DeefCan you have both firmware's on the iRiver at once? ie, can you select which you want to boot into?
04:19:46DeefOr does switching require a PC
04:20:05PaulJamrockbox is dualboot on h300

04:20:16Deefcool
04:20:19PaulJam(on ipod too)
04:20:23DeefGoodo
04:21:24DeefIs there such thing as a 60G iPod 5G? Or only 30G?
04:23:21PaulJam5gen ipos exist as 30 and 60 GB and the 5.5gen ipods have 80 and 30 GB afaik (but 5.5 gen ipods currently don't work with rockbox)
04:24:20Deefyeah
04:24:25Deefok thanks
04:24:35DeefOnly 30G 5G on the site I think
04:24:47DeefBut a 60G would probably be easier to find than a h340
04:35:25didjdeef: just tried my h340 then, worked with mem stick, but didnt work with Sony DSC-P32 cam
04:35:38DeefHmm
04:35:44DeefThanks for checking that
04:36:20didji think it needs to support mass storage device thingo
04:36:26DeefDoes the Sony cam have a generic "I'm-a-USB-storage-device" mode?
04:36:34didjfrom memory i think i needed drivers to use on PC
04:36:44DeefOk
04:36:50didjplugged in a usb<->SD adapter card, that worked fine
04:37:17Deefas in, you read from SD via the adapter?
04:38:10Deefand one more question, does the h340 let you write to the USB device also, or just read?
04:38:49didjya, its got a pretty basic browser
04:38:54Deefah
04:38:54didjlike a two tabbed window
04:38:58didjyou can copy/paste between em
04:39:02DeefAh
04:39:21DeefSo it IS a basic file manager for USB storage devices
04:39:36didjya, pretty basic tho
04:39:50DeefGood enough heh
04:39:54didj"copy", "Paste", "del", "info"
04:39:58didjis the only options
04:40:12DeefI was just worried that it was more like "Take images from camera" and "Exit"
04:40:14didjinfo basically shows the name + "Write Date" (last modified i guess)
04:40:20didjahh
04:40:48DeefThe camera I use works as a USB storage device
04:41:09DeefI can put pics from windows on it as data and view them on the camera (which I think is nifty)
04:41:14didjid think it *should* work
04:41:30DeefI'm happy with that shaky confidence
04:42:00didjheh
04:42:13didjbut dunno what your chances of finding one would be
04:42:19DeefYeah >_<

05:32:06Deefusb host adapter thingo??

05:39:39didjthe other is for host (memory sticks etc)
05:39:49DanJCohh
05:39:54didjbut its mini, so its just an adapter, mini to normal socket
05:40:01DanJCright right
05:40:13DanJCForgot about mini usb
05:40:21DanJCok
05:40:36DanJCNow, what is the actual point of having a dock?
05:40:40DanJCWtf does a dock do
05:40:41didjn the dock just had mini usb + power socket at the back/bottom
05:40:52didj(you use the same cable + AC adapter)
05:41:17DanJCCan you not charge with the AC adapter without the dock?
05:41:21didjyea
05:41:27didjits just a convenience thing
05:41:31DanJCheh
05:41:50DanJC..
05:41:58DanJCWhat's the convenient bit...
05:42:12DanJCIf you can still just charge it and connect it without the dock
05:42:15didjyou can just throw it into the dock and it charges + connects to usb
05:42:24godzirrasome people leave the dock all plugged up
05:42:28didjyea, that ;P
05:42:29godzirraand just toss in their iriver when they get home
05:42:30DanJCohh
05:42:42DanJCRight, ok, fair enough I guess
05:42:59DanJCNo use for me travelling though
05:44:13didjya
05:44:19didjit *can* charge from usb
05:44:23didjbut its *much* quicker from AC
05:44:35DanJCConfused with your answer before...
05:44:47DanJCCan it charge via AC without the dock
05:44:48DanJC?
05:44:51godzirrayes
05:44:58DanJCok

10:19:17pondlifeQuick question about the RB source structure...
10:19:54pondlifeTo fix a minor bug in the sim, I need access to iso_decode from the sim's io.c.
10:20:08pondlifeBut this currently needs a horrible include: #include "../include/rbunicode.h"
10:20:45pondlifeShould I be updating something else to include that include directory? Or should I not be attempting to do this at all?
10:22:24LinusNwell, i think dirty hacks are more or less allowed in the sims
10:22:53daurnthats racist
10:22:59daurni mean, dirty ;)
10:23:06pondlifeWould you mind if I commit that then?
10:23:38pondlifeBasically, the utf8 conversion is assumed to have happened in the io layer. It doesn't with the sim though.
10:26:08LinusNas long as it works in both win32 and linux
10:26:29pondlifeHmm, can you (or anyone) test a linux build for me?
10:26:59pondlifeIf not, I'll put an #ifdef in ;-p
10:27:19pondlifePatch is at http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/?getfile=12600
10:27:36pondlife(yes, I know it's on a bug report, but it won't be there for long)
10:28:11myzarwhat is this for?

10:37:06Nimdaelooks like readdir returns and encoding of some kind which must be processed, and depending on the filesystem and kernel (most likely the locale in general) may be unicode data, so it looks like it will work with utf-8

10:50:49Bagderwell, I think none of us core Rockboxers are java people so we don't know that stuff
10:50:50baobab68hi all
10:51:02pondlifeHmm, are the #ifndef _MSC_VER bits now obselete since we don't support the Win32 sim any more?

10:51:12Bagderpondlife: yes
10:51:16pondlifeGood!
10:51:36Nimdaei'm a java person, but lack the proper knowledge to do an implementation :(
10:52:28baobab68question re: the battery indicator on H300 series, if anyone has a second..?
10:52:40Nimdaei'll look into it though, it'd be fun to make java apps for rockbox
10:54:13*amiconn would rather like to stay away from java as far as possible
10:54:14baobab68i've been reading irc logs to see if this has been under discussion - currently the battery indicator seems to only get updated on each reboot, rather than being live?
10:54:21amiconnEven farther than MSVC++ or .net
10:54:35peturbaobab68: no it's live
10:54:57peturit just decreases very slowly ;)
10:55:00Nimdaeamiconn: why? java5 is rather nice ;)
10:55:37Bagderwell, we don't even have malloc
10:55:46Bagderimagine what java would require
10:56:13baobab68i'll admit i'm using a non-standard build (norbu's) but out of interest i ran a battery benchmark and the log file just kept recording 85% for six hours until the battery died...
10:56:23*petur wonders what's wrong with MSVC - starting with version 7 the compiler is actually quite good
10:58:46amiconnjava is slow, resource hungry, and it's oo
10:59:18Nimdaei find it to be quite fast, actually
10:59:37baobab68@ petur: so the CVS battery indicator is ok then? i might go back to CVS and save the headache
10:59:48BagderNimdae: I doubt you ever use it on this slow processors
11:00
11:00:00Nimdaetrue
11:00:05amiconnSo far I've seen no graphical java app that comes even near the speed of a native app
11:00:11Nimdaei dunno how fast the processor is on my phone
11:00:15didjanother thing is the lax memory management, garbage collection isnt good on memory constrained devices ;p
11:00:18amiconnThat's on recent PC hardware
11:00:24Bagderphones are usually several hundred mhz ARMs
11:00:50amiconnMy mobile phone runs java midp 1.0
11:01:04amiconnStarting opera mini takes half a minute or so
11:01:14Bagderhaha
11:01:44Nimdaeamiconn: actually, i won't argue about the graphical processing since java implements it's own graphical system on top of the existing graphical system of the os, and java2 is extremely slow at that
11:02:07Nimdaebut eh, i just thought it was a decent idea ;)
11:02:48amiconnpetur: Nothing is wrong with MSVC, it's the '++' that makes me stay away
11:04:02Nimdaedoesn't look like it would be possible anyway because no one has jme or embedded java sources available
11:07:12markunNimdae: you can email the /k/ guys about it http://www.k-embedded-java.com/news.html
11:10:09Nimdaeeh, i don't think i could make very good use of it though

12:12:54Paul_the_NerdTry just tapping the Menu button, I suppose. Or left. But that really shouldn't be happening.
12:14:57deeshWhen I tap the Menu button, I get a Unknown Artist, Unknown Album, 1 - No File! screen.. it looks kind of like the apple Now Playing screen
12:15:31Paul_the_NerdYou're sure you're running a daily build downloaded from the rockbox.org daily builds page?
12:16:17deeshIt is the latest daily build, but it was installed with the rockbox installer from ipodwizard.net
12:16:42Paul_the_NerdI'm going to recommend clearing your settings during boot, and if this doesn't resolve the problem, trying Rockbox with the official bootloader and seeing if they stick around.

12:18:20deeshWhat's the easiest way to uninstall Loader2?
12:18:52Paul_the_NerdThe easiest way is probably not what you want. That's just using the Apple/iTunes restore function.
12:19:32deeshWhich will wipe the HD, right?
12:19:36Paul_the_NerdYes
12:19:50deeshEw.
12:20:10Paul_the_NerdI would say "use ipodpatcher to write back bootpartition.bin" but since I have no idea what the install tool you used backs up or anything, I would recommend searching its instructions for how to have it safely remove it.

12:25:48deeshCould I use TagCache to show files loaded via iTunes to get a filetree menu? As of now, the only music on my iPod has been imported with iTunes.
12:28:01Paul_the_NerdFirstly, that wouldn't be a filetree at all.
12:28:15Paul_the_NerdSecondly, TagCache exists as a replacement view for the filetree view, so you still have to be able to get to it.

12:33:35deeshHow do I go about clearing these settings?
12:34:27Paul_the_Nerddeesh: Make sure the hold switch is on while Rockbox is booting. So, select it from the list, and immediately after choosing it, turn on the hold switch until Rockbox boots and says "Cleared"
12:36:05deeshDone. Reboot?
12:36:17Paul_the_NerdIt said cleared?
12:36:22deeshYes
12:36:28Paul_the_NerdAnd it still booted into the menu?
12:37:06deeshIt booted into, " Calenders -Contacts - Notes - Photos - rockbox"
12:37:12Paul_the_NerdThat's the filetree.
12:37:21Paul_the_NerdCalenders, Contacts, etc, are all folders on a default iPod
12:37:33Paul_the_Nerdrockbox is the rockbox.ipod file you copied over.

12:42:34Paul_the_Nerd Yes.
12:42:39Paul_the_NerdBut you asked about iTunes-imported songs.
12:43:12tonpaul
12:43:20Paul_the_NerdiTunes hides the music on your iPod, and names the files strange things, so by far the easiest way to use those songs is by way of TagCache.
12:43:26toncan i pay u to put zvm rockbox
12:43:39Paul_the_Nerdton: No, you cannot.
12:43:45deeshCould I SharePod MP3's from my iPod to PC, then put them in that directory?
12:43:49Paul_the_Nerdton: Why not spend some time learning and do it yourself.
12:44:02tonwhere would i start
12:44:22Paul_the_Nerddeesh: Sure, but why do that? If you want them in filetree mode, don't use iTunes to sync, and just copy the music files over wherever you want.

13:07:20deeshDoes it basically find all the protected/hidden/whatever files and make them visible in the filetree? I don't understand why Rockbox can't just see them already.
13:08:09Paul_the_Nerddeesh: Rockbox can see them, but iTunes gives them gibberish filenames.
13:08:30Paul_the_Nerddeesh: What it does is finds all the files on your system, and organizes them in a menu like the iPod software does, showing them sorted by Artist, Album, etc.
13:08:53Paul_the_NerdReading all their tags and creating a database of them takes a little time, so Rockbox doesn't do this by default
13:09:17deeshI see.

14:17:33*amiconn wonders why the side menu doesn't use frames
14:18:13preglowframes are bad!
14:18:25*Paul_the_Nerd gathers the torches and pitchforks.
14:18:36amiconnI prefer frames over having the same code load over and over
14:18:49aliaskThey are certainly more efficient than other methods.
14:18:56amiconnThey also have the advantage that the menu stays visible when scrolling down a long page
14:18:59aliaskBoth for coding time and loading.
14:19:09Zagoraliask: yes, very efficient at eliminating bookmarks, urls etc
14:19:17amiconnZagor: huh?
14:19:33Zagoramiconn: you can only link to the top frame
14:20:19*aliask forgot about that
14:21:10amiconnZagor: You can always link to a sub-page, with some support on either side
14:21:36Bagderyou can have the menu "follow" along without frames
14:22:17amiconnBagder: Yes, but then the menu code is included with every page -> longer loading time
14:22:34Bagderyes, but working web pages
14:22:41Bagderframes are broken by design
14:22:41amiconnAnd without special css measures, the menu becomes inaccessible when scrolling down
14:23:17*amiconn disagress
14:23:47Bagderwell, luckily most people agree with me these days ;-)

14:23:52Bagderon that point
14:23:59preglowoh yes
14:24:17*linuxstb is firmly anti-frames as well.
14:25:03Zagoramiconn: the menu is 2700 bytes, and is the gzipped before transfer. exactly how many milliseconds do you think you gain by not transfering it?
14:25:52Zagoractually it's 2472 bytes
14:26:12amiconnIt's only gzipped if the client supports it. Then there are still modem & isdn users
14:26:31Zagoramiconn: name a popular browser that doesn't support compression?
14:27:46LinusNhttp://www.karlcore.com/articles/article.php?id=2
14:27:46amiconnAnd the other point still holds (menu vanishing when scrolling down
14:28:14Paul_the_NerdWe could always just make the menu a floater.
14:28:17Zagoramiconn: you are living in 1995 :-)
14:28:23amiconnNo I don't
14:28:41Galoisdefinitely, floater menus are the way to go
14:29:09LinusNand frames were bad even in 1995
14:30:02Zagorbtw, I was surprised to set that even though over 80% of rockbox.org visitors use windows, Mozilla is the most popular browser.
14:30:54aliaskI would be supprised if Mozilla wasn't the most popular browser.
14:30:55Zagors/set/see
14:31:18*amiconn still doesn't agree that frames are inherently bad
14:31:52amiconnFrames have their pitfalls, sure, but all of them can be solved with a little thinking

14:32:57Slasherii check rockbox sites often using a text mode browser, like links or lynx
14:33:10Slasheriand i think frames are always a very bad solution
14:33:32linuxstbamiconn: Can you give an example of a frames-based site that solves all the problems?
14:33:58pondlifeI use a PC with no mouse or touch screen occasionally; frames can make navigation harder there too.

14:36:13Slasheribut i think it's better to let it just vanish
14:37:03Paul_the_NerdIt'd be easier to make the menu not vanish if browsers actually consistently supported CSS2, but that's another argument
14:37:45aliaskDoes IE7 have CCS2 support?
14:37:56ZagorI don't think there's much value in having the menu obnoxiously following the scrolling page. you know where the menu is, it doesn't have to be "in your face" all the time.
14:38:06Slasherii don't like about the idea menu taking extra space on the site (always visible)
14:38:28amiconnSlasheri: The menu space is taken anyway (the left column)
14:38:44Slasheriamiconn: yep, but the menu can be floating on the left also
14:38:49amiconnI simply hate it to have to scroll up again before I can access the menu
14:38:50Slasheriso text could go below it
14:38:58preglowthe home key is nice
14:39:09Slasherii just have to press one key (home) go get to the menu again
14:39:12*Paul_the_Nerd doesn't use the menu because he prefers to type URLs.
14:39:29Slasherii never use mouse unless it's the only way to go
14:40:00amiconnHome key is still slower than not having to scroll, e.g. when working via rdp / nx
14:40:19amiconn(and switching from mouse to keyboad also takes time)

14:43:36nano-Hi, we of the xmms2 project are about to arrange a logo contest, and thinking about having a DAP as price. I'm just wondering what DAP to go with. It would be very nice to have one that works perfectly with RockBox.
14:43:45preglowi just tend to avoid it to avoid messing up my arms

14:45:25nano-Also, our competition is not due for another 1-2 months. Might this change anything?

14:47:16TeaSeaYeah iRiver really did a stupid move making the H10 the flagship model.
14:47:39linuxstbIs the H10 still manufactured?
14:47:47TeaSeaFuck knows.
14:47:47nano-dan_a: ah ok :(
14:47:51TeaSeaI'm talking about the 20G model btw.
14:47:53TeaSeaIt's awful :D
14:48:06Paul_the_Nerdnano-: Sandisk has sent us hardware, but unfortunately most of the hurdles lie in the area of "Chips they bought but are unable to tell us useful information about" ;)
14:48:09amiconnnano-: If you want a dap that's still in production and fairly well supported by rockbox, I'd say go for the Iaudio X5
14:48:12dan_aWe're working on the Sansa, but the LCD has only been working a week
14:48:54Paul_the_Nerdnano-: Honestly, most people feel that the iRiver H100 or H300 series are some of the best Rockbox players if you want software codec support. The iAudio X5 is a newer one with very similar capabilities (thought I don't think we're beating stock battery life yet).
14:48:58nano-amiconn: yeah.. x5's are really nice, but a bit more expensive.
14:49:10linuxstbnano-: The only options for easily available DAPs are the ipods, and the iriver H10, but their support isn't as good as the X5.
14:49:19Paul_the_Nerdnano-: And of course the Archoses are wonderful if you don't mind that they only play MP3s, and are a bit clunky.
14:49:34amiconnPaul_the_Nerd: No, we don't, but I already know one cause an am planning to fix it

14:49:45Paul_the_Nerdamiconn: Good to hear. :)
14:50:19Paul_the_Nerdnano-: Anything outside the ones I've listed pretty much falls in the "In development, and with some noticeable constraints on real-world use" category (mostly battery life for the iPods and H10 series, really)
14:50:30Paul_the_NerdUnless I forgot something
14:51:05aliaskDRM support ;)
14:51:08Paul_the_NerdIt's finally getting cool here! It was 8C outside about an hour ago.
14:51:09nano-Thank you very much for the information. We'll have to think about it. Would give a warm fuzzy feeling to put "Works with Rockbox" next to the price ;)
14:51:09amiconnHmm, and we don't support usbotg on any model with usbotg hardware yet
14:51:45Paul_the_Nerdnano-: Honestly, overall I personally would suggest the H100 series if you can find one on sale somewhere, but that could be because it was my first Rockbox'ed DAP. ;)
14:52:52amiconnImho all the rockbox supported daps have their pros and cons, there's no one beat-all-others model
14:52:56Slasherii would suggest H100 also. It should be the most stable and best working of software codec targets
14:53:26aliaskAnd the least affected by the ugly parts of the UI.
14:53:38nano-I was pretty satisfied with rockbox on my iPod G4 before the hdd gave up :/
14:53:51Slasheriand with fastest boot time also if you put rockbox flash ;)
14:54:36nano-Btw.. what's the status of glib on uclinux?
14:55:20Slasheriwe don't use linux kernel
14:55:43Bagdernor glib ;-)
14:55:50nano-Aha.. was thinking about getting xmms2 to run on rockbox, but that's pretty much ruled out then.
14:56:07Ed___so what's the buzz with xmms2 anyway?
14:56:32Bagdernano-: I doubt xmms2 is designed to work good on devices like these
14:56:32nano-http://wiki.xmms2.xmms.se/index.php/Main_Page
14:56:39nano-Bagder: Yeah.. that too.
14:56:45*linuxstb asks the old "is it gapless?" question.
14:56:50nano-linuxstb: yes
14:57:02Ed___won't xmms2 be too fat to run on those type of devices?
14:57:04linuxstbThen I'm happy...
14:57:15nano-Ed___: Probably, don't know as I haven't tried it.
14:58:00BagderRockbox is handicrafted to be xmms on DAP, xmms is not ;-)
14:58:11Ed___well, i shouldn't bitch at xmms2, as i'm a developer of a music application myself :D
14:58:17nano-xmms != xmms2, but it's not handcrafted for dap no.
14:59:18Bagderfor example, rockbox is fixed-point only
14:59:25markunnano-: maybe you can port it to ipodlinux
15:00
15:00:04Bagder"It imports 1200 songs in 6 minutes on a P3 1.5GHz system."
15:00:18linuxstbAnd Rockbox is optimised for low memory usage and minimal disk spin-ups.
15:00:32amiconnlinuxstb: I have a few questions and suggestions regarding (1) the bitmap build system, (2) libmad
15:00:35Paul_the_NerdBagder: I think our TagCache can beat that. :-P
15:00:35nano-markun: yeah.. that's what I wanted to before I realised that glib didn't compile on ulibc (except for a really old version) and I didn't put any time investigating the problem. rockbox is nicer ;)
15:00:47BagderPaul_the_Nerd: I would certainly hope so...
15:00:58linuxstbamiconn: Ask away, but I'm not sure I'll be able to help with libmad.
15:01:12linuxstb(it's been a long time since I did anything with it).
15:02:26Bagderthe fun part is that the xmms2 page says 1200 songs in 6 minutes is "*very* fast"
15:02:48BagderSlasheri should like that ;-)
15:02:58Zagorwell what does "import" mean?
15:03:31BagderI assume that means populating the db with meta data from the songs
15:03:37linuxstbIt must mean physically copying the files to be that slow?
15:03:40nano-fetching all metadata from the files (including coverart) and loading the text to the medialib (sqlite) and storing the coverart to disk.
15:03:40Zagorbut yes, sounds a bit strange spending on average 3.3 seconds per song
15:04:07Bagderbut yeah, tagcache doesn't store cover art
15:04:50nano-but the "benchmark" is pretty inconclusive as the "songs" doesn't say format and doesn't say how much metadat in each file.
15:05:01BagderPaul_the_Nerd: check the history for 5521 for the reason for the re-open
15:05:10nano-So imho pretty silly to have on the front page without real information ;)
15:05:18Bagdernano-: indeed ;-)
15:05:38linuxstbnano-: Does it require setting up a database, or can I just do "xmms2 *.flac" in a directory?
15:06:09*amiconn thinks tagcache beats the 1200 songs in 6 minutes even on archos
15:06:45nano-linuxstb: Maybe this is a bit OT here. xmms2 add is the command though. (for adding to playlist, and xmms2 addpath to recursively add a path to the medialib, files added to playlist will be added to mlib)
15:07:33Paul_the_NerdBagder: It says it may be reopened, I've assumed that the problem has returned, but nobody's said anything to that end?

15:08:37amiconnlinuxstb: I was trying to fix the multiple calls into the bitmap directory makefile problem. Do you know why the apps/plugins/Makefile specifies both the makefile in apps/plugins/bitmaps (with in turn calls the 4 sub-directory makefile) _and_ the 4 individual makefiles in apps/plugins/bitmaps/<sub-dir> ?
15:08:37preglowgood luck

15:09:16Zagorpreglow: nah, mpg321 is all you need :)
15:09:23BagderPaul_the_Nerd: I just didn't felt like entering the same info since it _is_ there, just not that easily accessible
15:09:57amiconnlinuxstb: Another problem is that if you replace some gfx for a plugin with new ones of different resoltion, and don't 'make clean' (or at least delete the appropriate libpluginbitmaps*.a and object files, the gfx are all messed up
15:10:31Paul_the_NerdBagder: Well, sorted now. Hopefully next time I'll remember to check the history first.
15:10:43amiconnI have an idea how this could be solved. The generated .c file must have the jabber after the first dot stripped the same way as the .h file
15:11:29linuxstbamiconn: That doesn't sound right. IMO, the main Makefile should just call the four sub-directory Makefiles. cvs annotate tells me that Bagder added those lines...
15:11:58nano-Anyway, thanks for the info about DAP's. Bye.
15:12:03 Part nano-
15:12:09amiconnOh? I thought it should be the other way round, i.e. the Makefile should only call the one in bitmaps
15:12:55amiconnlinuxstb: Regarding libmad I have 2 simple questions, as you imported it to rockbox. First, libmad is made by Underbit technologies, but README.rockbox says Unibit technologies? I guess that's just a typo...
15:13:19amiconnSecond, do you know if there's an official cvs or svn for libmad?
15:13:29linuxstbI would prefer to have all the dependencies in the main Makefile, rather than recursively calling other Makefiles.
15:13:58linuxstbamiconn: Yes, that would just be a typo in README.rockbox.
15:15:31linuxstbI don't know about CVS/SVN. There's a "mad" project but it doesn't look like it uses the Sourceforge CVS/SVN.

16:16:59PaulJamSmakk question: is it normal, that a custom keyboard layout (.kbd file) doesn't survive a reboot? Or does it have to be saved in a special place?

16:32:58lowlightI don't understand why each track goes through audio_load_track twice and the metadata is read twice.
16:33:15pondlifeI don't think I've seen that here...
16:33:21pondlifeIs this on the sim or target?
16:33:46lowlightAlso, when playing the second directory you see that the codec is opened everytime even though its the same
16:34:23pondlifeI've seen that happen on the sim before.
16:34:48pondlifeBut assumed that was down to Windows and the DLL stuff, which is a bit hacky.

16:52:18Arathishow can I access the vmware image via samba from linux?
16:52:42Arathisin the wiki only the path from windows is discreibed: "Share name: \\debian\user"
16:53:03Paul_the_NerdArathis: It's generally assumed that if you're on linux you'll just compile in your own linux rather than running a virtual machine.
16:53:41ArathisPaul_the_Nerd: I know, but it doesn't work for me. I have problems compiling the arm-elf-gcc
16:54:47Paul_the_NerdArathis: Anyway, this is a more general linux question, so you may have more luck searching the 'net for how to use Linux to access samba shares.

17:13:21Paul_the_NerdIt's in other manuals for other iPods.
17:13:26Paul_the_NerdI'm curious why it's missing from the 3G one.
17:13:40eight3446kind of an important step.
17:14:16dan_aIIRC, the 3g bootloader image wasn't available for a long time after the other iPods
17:14:18Paul_the_NerdWell, 3G Rockbox is still somewhat unreliable for playback, so it's possible that not much focus has been given to the manual yet.

17:24:09amiconnPaul_the_Nerd: The battery_bench not working on nano is because of the disk standby hack. The flash in the nano doesn't like the standby command, so the standby logic in ata.c is disabled for nano.
17:24:23amiconnHence the battery_bench plugin can't trigger on spinup
17:24:57amiconnThe solution would be to fake the standby logic instead of disabling it completely

19:21:12amiconnThe services are neglectible imho, the VM(s) consume more
19:21:43markuncould anyone with a DAP with a Wolfson codec please try the latest build?
19:21:45amiconnI would use vmware - if there would be a convenient way to edit under windows. I could share the home directory and map a network drive - but then many windows apps would become slow when the VM isn't running

19:22:19amiconnPerhaps I should set up a VM exclusively for cvs and compilation, without any gui
19:22:20 Join PaulJam_ [0] (n=pauljam@vpn-3079.gwdg.de)
19:22:29amiconn...and leave that running all the time
19:22:53amiconnThat would require to cross-compile the sims for windows though
19:22:53SlasheriArathis: could you send the file(s) to me?
19:23:03Slasheriso the problem can be permanently fixed
19:23:03amiconnNot sure whether that'd be possible
19:23:59amiconnMy preferred editor works on wine, but wine apps don't get a button in the taskbar, at least not with gnome
19:24:17amiconnAnd no, I won't switch to KDE, that's for sure
19:24:55peturI don't know linux so the step is bigger for me...
19:25:16ArathisSlasheri: which file? I just added two 'logf' lines to tagcache.c so it reportes me the position of the error in tagcache_tmp.tcd. I than used hexedit to see which musicfile this was and deleted it. could have renamed it to a shorter name as well I think.
19:25:20amiconnThe vmware services add up to ~4.5MB of memory here. Nothing to worry about...
19:25:28godzirraCan anyone help me out? I apparently completely ran down my ipod's battery.
19:25:37godzirranow when I plug it into the usb port, nothing happens.
19:26:29amiconnJust leave it plugged for a while

19:26:46SlasheriArathis: do you think the problem was because of a too long filename?=
19:26:50godzirraand its been plugged in for... I dunno.. 20-30 minutes?
19:26:55amiconnhmm
19:26:59amiconnThat's bad, then

19:27:37godzirrano suggestions?
19:27:41amiconnOf course it can only display something if there's enough juice for the system to start, but it should charge even without display (I guess)
19:28:05amiconnMaybe it hung, but now charged enough to display something when you reset it?
19:29:01godzirrahow do I reset it?
19:29:09amiconnSelect+Menu, as usual
19:29:21godzirrabut I thought you had to have it turned on to reset it like that?
19:29:25amiconn...for 5 seconds or so
19:29:39godzirraah ha!
19:29:41godzirrayou're my hero.
19:29:55godzirraits charging now.
19:30:07amiconn[19:28:05] <amiconn> Maybe it hung, .. <= that means it could be on, but fail to display anything
19:30:20godzirraresetting it worked.
19:30:31amiconnIt was charging before as well, just you couldn't see that it did
19:30:36*godzirra nods
19:30:38godzirramakes sense.
19:30:51godzirrathingsl ike that cause me to worry though. I wish I could find a h340 =p
19:31:49PaulJam_i think the same situation can happen with a h300 if rockbox hangs while the display is off.
19:32:22godzirraProbably. I just really liked my H120 compared to the ipod ;p
19:33:35ArathisSlasheri: I think so. I deleted the directory at once, don't know why.. but the file had a really long name. I don't know if it was the only one causing this error or just the first. I could test it if it's helpfull
19:34:00SlasheriArathis: that would be very helpful
19:34:08ArathisSlasheri: the file's path was: "music/Soundtracks/Filme/Star Wars/Starwars Episode 6 - Return of the Jedi/Starwars - Episode 6 OST CD2/07 - The Battle Of Endor II (Leia Is Wounded &The Duel Begins & Overtaking the Bunker & The Dark Side Beckons & The Emperor's Death).mp3"

19:35:28ArathisI could send you the one file while testing if tagcache works without it, but with the rest of the directory
19:35:59ArathisSlasheri: do you have an H10?
19:37:12SlasheriArathis: nope, only h140. But i can test with simulator
19:37:12amiconnpetur: Did you test your jpeg.c change (and also let it test on greyscale targets)?
19:37:39amiconnI suspect this will hard-clash with the grayscale library.

19:43:32peturI only removed some, not add any
19:43:32amiconnThis will confuse the lcd controller for sure
19:43:41amiconnYou added some

21:57:35lowlightfirst, it waits for Q_CODEC_REQUEST_PENDING, but that is never set in the code (it's commented out) so that loop is skipped and it's possible to return false which indicates that the next track can't be loaded
21:57:42nlsTerrorByte, No, afaik no-one is working on it atm.
21:57:48TerrorByteaw...

21:59:13nlsYou can make it YOUR top priority :-P
21:59:43lowlightpondlife: what I see in some of the logging is that the codec requests a track, Q_AUDIO_CHECK_NEW_TRACK is sent, but somehow Q_CODEC_REQUEST_FAILED is received before audio_check_new_track() is called.

22:02:40TerrorByteI can't believe there's no work being done on it.
22:02:43Paul_the_NerdTerrorByte: For an music player, why should video be a top priority over things like getting bugs fixed, and battery life?
22:02:58amiconn(1) we don't estimate dates (2) rockbox is a dap firmware, so video certainly isn't top priority
22:03:11Paul_the_NerdTerrorByte: There's no work being done on it because all the people who really want it all have no idea how to do it. :-P
22:03:18amiconnDevs are free to choose what they're working on
22:03:25lowlightpondlife: it seems like adding too many debugf/logfs changes the timing of events to the benefit of the check new track queue event so the failure doesn't happen.
22:03:25TerrorByteOf course bugs/battery is important, but nevertheless....
22:03:28TerrorByteYesh I do know that.
22:03:30TerrorByteI can wait.
22:03:48TerrorByteI'm just saying that it should be done eventually.
22:04:10TerrorByteJeez ;P
22:04:55Paul_the_NerdWhat does "eventually" have to do with whether anyone's working on it now, though?
22:05:02lowlightpondlife: it's possible that the white noise may be caused by pcmbuf_play_stop() statement that isn't reached because Q_CODEC_REQUEST_PENDING isn't set. So maybe the pcmbuf plays stuff when it should have been stopped.
22:05:25TerrorByteIt still matters.
22:05:34TerrorByteThere could be some work being done on it...
22:05:37TerrorByteBut not such a big focus.

23:19:16TerrorByteAh.
23:19:28TerrorByteAbout the encoding of the videos.

23:20:25TerrorByteWill it be able to play other compression videos?
23:20:25Paul_the_NerdI don't understand the question.
23:20:52Paul_the_NerdYou're going to have to reencode videos no matter what to get them to a size to playback decently fast.
