00:00:46Zagormore and more things are starting to use usb as power source too. I've got an alarm clock that charges over usb. not because it's convenient to charge in the computer, but because usb is becoming a standard power source.
00:01:48Bagderyeps
00:02:09Bagderand I agree about the wall charger usb thing being nice
00:02:18BagderI don't have one (yet) and I miss it

00:27:27Mouser_XHeh.
00:27:38*Mouser_X loves his Gigabeat with Rockbox...
00:28:54PrimeHexsneakums: I actually have several friends with zunes, they're quite impressive. They did the things right that I wanted out of the ipod in the firstplace. There are ways around the 3play limit on the filesharing, but it's a pain
00:30:23*Febs is getting the urge to buy a Gigabeat.
00:30:52*preglow too
00:31:02hcsit has crushed my motivation to optimize :(

00:32:17PrimeHexspug: It's surprisingly styleish. Screen's bigger, plays sideways, handles pictures nicer, and has been far more durable and less scratch-prone then the ipod
00:32:34PrimeHexbesides, I'm totally sick of the ipod, I've had one for at least 1/4th of my life

00:33:11ZagorPrimeHex: 1/4 of your life? you're not very old, are you?
00:33:15spugPrimeHex: okay, cool
00:33:30spugwhat do you mean "plays sideways"? the screen orientation switches when it's tilted sideways?
00:33:53Soap^that would be cool.
00:34:25PrimeHexwhen you play a movie it automatically goes sideways. They didn't include a tilt sensor for cost reduction. I the head of North American marketing for Microsoft (close family friend)

00:35:45hcsI've had portable digital audio players for 1/4 of my life...
00:35:59PrimeHexalso, the gigabeat's website is extremely annoying. I don't know a single person that enjoys reading diagonally
00:36:04Soapif you count cassette tapes I have.
00:36:14PrimeHexthose are analog, no?
00:36:14Soapwell, 1/2 my life.
00:36:19PrimeHexor is it like
00:36:22PrimeHexa mix of both
00:36:30PrimeHexI was only around for the end of those
00:36:30hcsmm, 1/2 if you count Discman
00:36:31Soapcassette tapes were analogue.
00:36:37PrimeHexok
00:36:43PrimeHexyea, 1/2 if you cound CD's
00:37:02Soapa portable CD player at age 8?
00:37:14PrimeHexI was actually an "early adopter" and had a firstgen Dell DJ for about 3 years before some mexican hotel lady stole it from my suitcase
00:37:21PrimeHexSoap: what's so weird about that?
00:37:32spugi haven't had a portable digital audio player for more than two months :(
00:37:46Soapsuch expensive toys for little boys. Foreign concept.
00:37:54preglowhaha

00:38:10preglowthey weren't very expensive eight years ago
00:38:13PrimeHexNot at all
00:38:18PrimeHexI'm trying to figure out how that's weird
00:38:24 Quit kirkunit ("leaving")
00:38:26PrimeHexeither way, I take care of my stuff.
00:38:35preglowas a matter of fact, i got one when i was about ten, and they weren't excessively expensive then either
00:38:42preglowand i'm 25
00:38:56preglowthey were, however, huge
00:39:03PrimeHexidk, I think my first one was a really nice one, and it was $60 or so, which is still nothing compared to the $250+
00:40:00*Soap came from a well-off family and didn't have a single possession worth $60 as a child except for his bike.
00:40:31PrimeHexhaha
00:40:38preglowthen we have established the fact you two are not from the same family
00:40:44PrimeHexI've been through all stages of money
00:40:54ZagorI used to live in a cardboard box ... in the middle of the road!
00:41:03preglowlucky bastard!
00:41:06*Soap is sorry for dragging this so far off topic.
00:41:09PrimeHexFrom 0.01-7 or so, my parents were broke-ass poor
00:41:43PrimeHexMy dad worked like 23 hours a day, we lived in my grandpa's apartment for 2-3 years, moved into our own house (a rather large ranch), my dad started his group benefits company, and it's only been up from there.
00:42:16 Quit |Rincewind| ("Cya")
00:42:26PrimeHexMy sister missed out on the broke ass poor part, and enjoyed living in my grandpa's apartment (she's 4 years behind me), so she treats everything like shit, and she never gets expensive stuff

02:45:42PrimeHexit's one of my favorite parts of musiccube
02:45:51Brunelluswhen did they start doing mpegplayer?
02:46:03Mikachucouple of months ago
02:46:10iwantanimaccause the fade-out doesn't happen on linneout, so it just delays the pause.
02:46:11Brunelluswow
02:46:25BrunellusI'm also hoping the sansa e200 port finally gets sound playback
02:46:29Brunellusbecause that'll be awesome.
02:46:43Brunellussansa's a nice player, but no ogg support :(
02:46:45iwantanimacyeah. i was thinking o picking on of those babies up if that happens.
02:46:59Brunellusseriously
02:47:20argonelMikachu: don't do that on my account, i do it all the time :p
02:47:28iwantanimaci love the word ogg. do you really pronounce it like egg, with an "o"?
02:47:51BrunellusI just say ogg, so yeah
02:47:57BrunellusAwGG
02:48:08Brunellusif I'm being pedantic, I say "ogg vorbis"

02:51:15PrimeHexlike
02:51:18PrimeHexcover all the ranges
02:51:21PrimeHexon both left and right
02:51:29aliaskYou'd have to get your hands dirty and get coding if you wanted to implement that
02:51:34PrimeHexdamnit
02:51:36aliaskAnd the CPU usage would be really high
02:51:37Mouser_XIndeed.
02:51:38PrimeHexwhat language is it in?
02:51:40Mouser_XC
02:51:42PrimeHexoh
02:51:42aliaskC
02:51:43PrimeHexsweet
02:51:48PrimeHexI'm not bad at C
02:52:00Mouser_XPrimeHex: What target are you on?
02:52:04PrimeHextarget?
02:52:11aliaskWhat player
02:52:14PrimeHexOH
02:52:15Mouser_XUnit, player, device, etc.
02:52:18PrimeHex5.5g
02:52:21Mouser_XAh.
02:52:24PrimeHex:)
02:52:28Mouser_XThat doesn't have much CPU to spare.
02:52:40aliaskConsider that the 2 channel "vis" lags playback on those.
02:52:44Mouser_XGetting a vis of any sort will be painful, from what I've heard.
02:52:47argonelwhat has the most cpu to spare?
02:52:47PrimeHexit seems to be fine with the 2 channel
02:52:52PrimeHexoh
02:52:54aliaskargonel: Gigabeat
02:52:55PrimeHex>:E
02:53:02Mouser_XThe Gigabeat has a 300 mhz CPU.
02:53:08aliaskHigh bitrate files will probably lag
02:53:08*Mouser_X has a Gigabeat
02:53:13PrimeHexdoes the code take advantage of the ram on the 5.5g?
02:53:25*argonel is between targets at the moment
02:53:25Mouser_XAll RAM is used by the codecs.
02:53:31PrimeHexok
02:53:33PrimeHexthought so
02:53:41aliaskSure about that Mouser_X?
02:53:48PrimeHexis the vis code efficient yet? or is it rough?
02:53:55Mouser_XThat's what some of the devs have said.
02:54:01aliaskI thought that the 64mb ram targets weren't fully taken advantage of yet, but I could be wrong.
02:54:06PrimeHexbecause I'm friends with some C gods, and they can make everything go faster
02:54:17Mouser_XThere's targets that have 64 MB or RAM?
02:54:24aliask60gb Videos
02:54:27PrimeHexyea
02:54:36aliaskAnd 5.5g's by the sound of it too.
02:54:37Mouser_XPrimeHex: There is no vis code in place yet.
02:54:45PrimeHexbut the 2chan scope?
02:55:02Mouser_XThat's just showing the volume level on each speaker.
02:55:12PrimeHexah
02:55:15Mouser_XOr, something like it.
02:55:21PrimeHexwould that be hard to turn into a 16chan vis?
02:55:27PrimeHex8 volume scopes on each
02:55:31Mouser_XYou can read about on the Wiki, somewhere.
02:55:37PrimeHexis the wiki up?
02:55:43Mouser_XProbably not.
02:55:45PrimeHexok
02:55:46PrimeHex:)
02:55:51aliaskPrimeHex: I'm guessing you'd be splitting by frequency range, so I'd say it'd be a little more involved.
02:55:56PrimeHexalright

02:56:48PrimeHexI'm just ok at C
02:56:51aliaskI'm not really sure what would be needed, but you'd be scanning every sample that went through the audio, splitting it into the different frequency bands, and measuring the volume.
02:57:02PrimeHexyea
02:57:09PrimeHexthere's a few other ways to do it
02:57:20PrimeHexI'm sure you could use parts from the eq code

03:26:55debauched_sloth PrimeHex: you have not worked for a large company then
03:27:17safetydanBig companies have a lot of conflicting interests. The bigger the company, the less coherent they'll be.
03:27:17debauched_slothbecause they really do a lot right, and that is amazing
03:27:29debauched_slothand when they do it wrong, it's easy to see why
03:28:18AnendramThe only reason I have stayed with windows is for games... Linux seems a lot better for almost everything else.
03:28:23PrimeHexTo me, it seems like all the small things bring them down, sure the big things are nice. Although I think if I were a company like Microsoft I'd hire an entire other company to do nothing but fix the small things.

03:31:26PrimeHexVery true @ linux latency
03:31:28OverandIt all comes down to how good the apps you get to work with audio are. Macs may be marginally 'better' when it comes to capturing audio, what with having better support for a lot of devices, actually

03:37:17voltagexthanks, I was about to search for is
03:38:07KCCahh so it wasnt a hack
03:38:10argonelproblem with that quote is the answer for "Any irreperable damage?" is absent :)
03:38:12KCCthats comforting, if nothing else

03:40:03Overandthough there are people out there with relatively recent source tarballs i'm sure

03:40:28voltagexany word on how the backup is going?
03:40:36voltagexrestore I mean
03:41:19safetydanvoltagex, since it's around 2am in the parts of Europe where the server is, I don't think we'll be hearing much for a few hours
03:41:37voltagexah timezones
03:41:48voltagexsee it's Monday 1341hrs here
03:41:49KCCgotta love em

05:52:03tanqquestion..
05:52:15combrainsfire away
05:52:26tanqi modified the background.bmp in one of the themes and now it appears that the theme doesnt work.
05:53:00tanqi thought it was a bit curious since it is just an image and the rendering of the text should be completely separate, right?

05:54:16tanqreplaced it with a new bmp
05:54:53combrainsis the new one the same name and the right dimensions?
05:54:58tanqi.e. took the original modified it and overwrote it..
05:55:03tanqyeah the image displays fine.
05:55:11combrainsoh
05:55:17tanqthe text flickers in and out now though.. if it displays at all.
05:55:49tanqsomes songs wont display and some do the flicker only for part of the theme
05:56:02combrainsstrange.
05:56:08tanqi bet the bmp is too large
05:56:17combrainsmight be
05:56:18tanqmeaning the filesize is too large.
05:56:32combrainsyeah - I got that
05:57:15combrainsthe bmp has to be no more than 16 bit too iirc
05:58:26perldiveri believe 24bit is allowed as well
05:58:57combrainsbut doesnt that generally make the filesize too big?
05:59:07perldiverdepends on the picture
06:00
06:02:02tanqany idea how to check the bits in gimp?
06:04:27tanqwell I think gimp does 24bit by default

09:27:13hcscould you point out where indentation needs cleaning?
09:28:23LinusNwell, the general style in rockbox is to have conditional blocks on separate lines
09:29:01LinusNbut we have no specific rules about it
09:29:03n1shmmm, about every other build i make with make -j fails :-(

09:30:46LinusNan example of indentation is on line 1956
09:31:15LinusNhmmm, that switch() looks horrible

10:19:03combrainsBTW markun, have there been any notable comits in the last 24 hrs? I'm just wondering if its worth me doing an SVN up
10:19:46Bagderr"svn st -u"
10:19:51amiconnPreferably at least one of each PP5002, PP5020, PP5021. PP5022 is already tested :)
10:20:02Bagderrcombrains: saves you from asking
10:20:31combrainsyeah but to do that I have to start my VM and that takes about 5 mins
10:20:41Bagderrgosh
10:20:44amiconn5 mins??

10:21:38bluebrotherBagderr: I worked on using the svn revision number as version information on the weekend
10:21:44amiconn5020 would be ipod G4, Mini G1 or the H10

10:53:25LinusNJdGordon: commit it if it works
10:53:45amiconnNot sure, i guess it's because writes are buffered
10:53:52JdGordonhave a look first... it works but im not sure if you like how its done
10:53:58linuxstb__I mean ata-as-pp.S
10:55:04gamkillerHey lads. My iRiver died a few weeks ago (seemed like a hardware fault), but I updated rockbox and now it's kicking again. Kind of a fuzzy resolve, but I forgot which people I spoke to.
10:55:44amiconnlinuxstb__: Yes. (1) it contains the ata data port address which is PP specific. (2) The only other arm target with ata is the gigabeat, which already does optimised ata (with dma)
10:56:05markunamiconn: will you commit test_disk.c to svn?

11:06:30amiconnSame as on my mini, only at a higher level...
11:07:34amiconnLinusN, barrywardell: Are these speeds boosted or unboosted?
11:07:54markunamiconn: should you code also work on other ARM targets or are there any PP specific things in there?
11:08:03LinusNamiconn: ah, i have to boost manually?
11:08:09barrywardellamiconn: h10 always runs boosted
11:09:06amiconnmarkun: The code should work on other arm targets provided (1) the port address is adjusted, (2) they're little endian (3) ata is mmio
11:09:07LinusNi don't even know how to boost manually on the 5g
11:09:25amiconnThe same way as on irivers, X5, ...

11:12:22barrywardellamiconn: yes. but with frequency scaling enabled it doesn't run long enough for battery time to matter ;)

12:05:24GodEaterit could do without the "Menu: diskmode, Prev:reboot, Other cont." IMHO though
12:06:16DataGhostyes
12:06:18DataGhostthat's debugging stuff
12:06:21DataGhost:)
12:06:25GodEaterI gathered
12:06:37GodEaterbut I'd call that a successful test though
12:06:56GodEateryou can even attempt to boot rockbox as well as having it just detect it
12:07:08GodEaterit just fails at the MBR test (as expected) - but you get the Rockbox logo

12:12:13markunWe can store them on the HDD unencrypted also, maybe that's easier

12:44:29Nico_Plinuxstb: by any chance, have you had some new ideas/discussions about how to manage cuesheets and the memory they use (and album art too) ?
12:45:48linuxstbNo. I think in the short term we have to live with extra disk spinups, and hope that metadata-on-buffer happens.
12:46:57Nico_Phmm... so you think the plugin buffer isn't a good idea ?
12:47:45linuxstbIt just feels like a hack, and a complicated one at that - needing to deal with cases where the plugin buffer is being used whilst the buffering happens etc.
12:48:07Nico_Pyes
12:48:44Nico_Pin the case of cuesheets, the disk spinups should be rather rare for most users
12:48:52Nico_Pso i suppose it would be acceptable
12:49:28amiconnThe playlist viewer also uses the plugin buffer, so it cannot be used for cue sheet
12:49:29amiconns
12:49:40Nico_Pfor album art maybe i could also try to minimise them by reserving space for 3 or 4 bitmaps
12:50:15linuxstbI think we could greatly reduce the memory usage for cuesheets though - storing the text as variable length strings, rather than fixed length.
12:50:55amiconnImho metadata on buffer should be a requirement for album art
12:50:58 Join pondlife [0] (n=Miranda@rockbox/developer/pondlife)
12:51:02Nico_Pamiconn: i agree metatdata on buffer would be better but it could work quite elegantly without
12:51:25Nico_Plinuxstb: how woud that work ?
12:51:54linuxstbMy feeling is that it's one of the most popular features in the unofficial builds, and it would be a good thing for Rockbox in general to try and reduce the demand for unofficial builds. So I'm in favour of committing a relatively inefficent version, given the requirement that there is minimal impact for people who don't use album art.
12:52:36pondlifeJdGordon: Thanks for the CPU boost tracker if you're still around..!
12:52:41JdGordon;)
12:52:52Nico_Pthe impact on people who don't use it would be reduced to increased code size and an additional setting
12:53:04JdGordonlinuxstb: I disagree... but thats case i dont use AA
12:53:04pondlifeAm also checking your new settings patch
12:53:19linuxstbJdGordon: You think unofficial builds are a good thing?
12:53:45GodEaterI think he meant he'd rather not see an inefficient solution commited
12:53:53JdGordonno, but i dont think an inefficient AA should be included
12:53:57*GodEater 's psychic powers
12:54:06GodEaterhehe
12:54:12Nico_Plinuxstb: i agree album art should get commited (why wouldn't I ? ;) ), but i think there will still be a demand for unofficial builds no matter what
12:54:41linuxstbYes, but Album Art is a feature lots of people want - no-one can deny the demand.
12:54:41Nico_Punless we include all the patches in the tracker
12:54:42JdGordonMOB is definatly the way to go... who knows the buffer code well enough to add it tho?
12:54:43*amiconn personally thinks that both aa and cuesheet support are weird features
12:54:44GodEaterwhich solution for AA is being considered here? BMP file approach, or stored in tags ?
12:55:02linuxstbGodEater: BMP file.
12:55:14Nico_Pamiconn: color is also a weird feature to you, isn't it ? ;-)
12:55:58Nico_PJdGordon: i don't see metadata on buffer coming anytime soon
12:56:05amiconnNo, not colour in itself, although it doesn't have much value
12:56:11JdGordonNico_P: same :(
12:56:21amiconnI would be less inclined against colour if the displays were better
12:56:31markunNico_P, JdGordon: it's very difficult?
12:56:33amiconn...i.e. readable without backlight
12:56:40pondlifeIt would be good if someone just looked into the current buffering bugs before adding AA...
12:56:51Nico_Pand i'd appreiciate it a lot if i didn't have to sync my patches all the time
12:56:55JdGordonmarkun: I dont know that part of the code..
12:57:03markunamiconn: I think the ipod color has a transflexive colour display, no?
12:57:22amiconnThe video's lcd is _somewhat_ readable w/o backlight
12:57:25Nico_Pmarkun: it's quite hard even for someone who knwos the playback code
12:57:52Nico_Pbecause the playback code is a bit of a mess
12:57:54amiconnThe color's lcd is pitch black w/o backlight, same as H300 or X5

13:00:08pondlifeI've seen this before, it's related to the 32-track info wraparound I think.

13:09:21JdGordonNico_P: you can potentially fit more in because all strings are not limited to MAX_LEN
13:09:37linuxstbNico_P: You don't deal with the case where all strings are max_length - instead of limiting the size of individual strings, you limit the total size of the strings.
13:09:45JdGordonMikachu: never.... the only way a malloc would work is if a pool was allocated first from the audio buffer
13:09:53linuxstbBoth cases are an artificial limit...
13:10:09Mikachuso you might allocate all that memory from the start
13:11:00Nico_Plinuxstb: i still don't see how it will save memory... with that method i'd be inclined to reserve at least as much space as what's currently reserved, if not more
13:11:04Mikachuisn't it much harder to keep track of free memory with mallocing random strings?

13:13:52*amiconn wonders why some devs want malloc so badly
13:13:56Nico_Pi thouth it would be possible to decrease "filebuflen" to create some room after the filebuffer and if there is something there we move it to the current write position

13:21:11 Part kaaloo
13:21:14GodEatermakes you wonder what people did before there was malloc()
13:22:13amiconnMemory fragmentation is a real problem with malloc on systems without mmu
13:22:35amiconnAnd embedded systems usually don't have an mmu
13:22:42linuxstbNico_P: Why do you need an explicit setting - the presence of the AA tag in the current .wps tells you if album art is enabled.
13:23:32Nico_Pthat's true, but the setting would say if we want to use buffer_alloc... i was thinking this could help reduce the disk spinups
13:24:11Nico_Pand also using only the WPS tag causes a problem (not a serious one though) with the fact of changing the WPS
13:25:24 Join Sikkan [0] (i=Monchhic@84.243.53.166)
13:25:43linuxstbBut it complicates things from a user's point of view - having to enable a setting to make their WPS work.
13:25:55JdGordonlinuxstb: yeah, if these features went in before MoB they really should have an explicit kill settng for those that dont want them
13:26:03Nico_Pi agree
13:26:37linuxstbYes, I agree, but the wps tag is enough for the album art case IMO.
13:27:41JdGordonno its not.. the point of the setting is so it knows to alloc space on boot... there should be a splash if a wps needing it is loaded and AA isnt enabed
13:28:07linuxstbBut the wps is loaded on boot, at a time when you can still do buffer_alloc.
13:28:21JdGordonoh? ok then

13:38:21JdGordonNico_P: that I know.. but we can still pretend it has a set size.... so does data just get dumped onto it untill it wraps around onto itself? or does ssomething control how much goes on?
13:38:32Nico_Pi'd like to know if AA would be commited before MoB... if not i'll just sync it when it needs to be and work on other things until MoB arrives (i don't feel up to implementing MoB myself yet)

13:40:09Nico_PJdGordon: that i'm not sure but i suppose there is a check to prevent the write position to "overtake" the read position
13:40:30 Join Wiwie [0] (n=goddi@vpnsh0135.fh-trier.de)
13:40:55Nico_Pi'd be willing to adapt AA to MoB once MoB comes
13:41:43JdGordonbtw, MoB gets yucky when we think about stuff like each track may have more than 1 item of metadata on the buffer...
13:41:51JdGordonno reason why a .cue couldnt also have AA
13:43:02linuxstbThe way I see it working, is that a file would have the standard mp3info struct, plus some optional structs - cuesheet, album art, etc as needed.
13:43:04 Quit Mouser_X3 (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
13:43:39linuxstbThese would then need to be copied into a single static buffer when the track starts to be played (so the buffer can be freed).
13:44:34Nico_Plinuxstb: then we still have the issue of the size of that static buffer :) but i suppose it's not too important if it's only one
13:44:35Zagoraaand presto. www is back.
13:44:52Nico_PZagor: nice :)
13:45:17linuxstbNico_P: Yes, and it the extra buffers would still need to be optional, and allocated via buffer_alloc at boot.
13:45:24Nico_PZagor: maybe a little news item about how cron hacked rockbox ? :)

13:46:50preglowDuring the weekend, some idiot hacker going by the name of Cr0N hacked rockbox.org for dubious gains.
13:47:34preglowWe shall all endeavour to have him shot.
13:47:42JdGordonlinuxstb: na, the extra buffer would be OK to statically allocate if MoB was done imo
13:48:04JdGordonoh hang on... no scratch that
13:48:26pixelmaJdGordon: first impression after compiling a patched and unpatched version... I think the older patch saved a lot more binary size (if only I could remember the numbers...).
13:48:47JdGordonpixelma: this version only touches the settings storage.. not the menus, so there sholdnt be much difference in the bin size
13:49:42JdGordonis a ring buffer with a gap theoretically workable? (the gap being the current tracks metadata)
13:49:52pixelmamaybe my memory tricks me here
13:50:12JdGordonpixelma: as long as it doesnt increase it by heaps im happy

13:53:20pixelmaah... I see. So it's nice to tell you that it decreased binary size by 340 bytes for a backlight modded Ondio :)

13:57:32Viktorno it works on it, but im not sure if there is another ui for the players
13:57:41Viktorthey just work on firmware i think
13:58:11markunwhat do you mean? They modify the original firmware?
13:58:12muesli__i suppose 224x176 means full screen on h300`?

14:24:08pondlifeProbably due to enabling ReplayGain with pre-amp...

14:26:56pondlifeYes
14:27:19pondlifeMaybe my saved CFG file had volume:0 in it.
14:27:39pondlifeHaving done a load file, I also get no voice, on menus or browser.
14:27:46pondlifeReboot didn't help either.
14:27:48pixelmaah... my voice file was just a tiny tiny bit to large (had used another lang - with a different voice file right before than what was in the config.cfg file)
14:30:19pondlifeOK, had to reload English.lng in the browser to bring voice back,.
14:30:49pondlifeSo something went wrong there. Maybe I was relying on a fallback to that in my CFG file? I'll have a look.
14:31:07pixelmahmm... maybe that was actually the same case here
14:32:26pondlifeI can repro if I reload the CFG file that was saved from the unpatched build.
14:33:18JdGordoni might have forgot to mention it reads config.cfg...
14:33:49pondlifeOK, that explains it

14:34:18JdGordonif it doesnt exist it loads the defaults
14:35:09pondlifeHmm, my problem started when I browsed my CONFIG11.CFG, containing the line: lang: /.rockbox/langs/english.lng
14:36:12pondlifeI can repro that by reloading the old CFG file.
14:36:28pondlifeKills voice until I load a new config, or manually set language again.
14:36:58JdGordonthats odd... that is the correct path for langs...
14:37:01pondlifeNew config contains lang: /.rockbox/langs/english.lang
14:37:07pondlifei.e. .lang vs .lng
14:37:29JdGordonwhat about with a different lang?
14:37:39JdGordonI may have added an a where it shouldnt be

15:28:24*amiconn , while preferring the gui over commandline, usually deletes files instead of sending it to the bin
15:28:40amiconnI usually disable all recycle bin functionality
15:28:44*GodEater does too. Shift-delete in windows almost without fail.
15:29:09GodEaterWhen I delete something - I want it deleted - not just moved somewhere else.
15:29:55amiconnexactly
15:30:18amiconnIn that respect, gnome is worse than the windows ui
15:30:38GodEaterat least gnome has a "skip trash" option
15:30:44amiconnIn windows explorer, shift-delete works out of the box, in nautilus it needs to be explicitly enabled
15:30:46XavierGrI have to agree that I never use plain delete in windows
15:31:08XavierGrwhen I delete I make sure to press shift before delete
15:31:11GodEaterah but you can make it a permanent feature in gnome
15:31:42amiconnSo you can in windows
15:32:05GodEaterdo tell

15:38:54GodEaterwhich was too expensive IMO
15:39:15Nico_Pwell the one i'm bidding on is currently £89,50
15:39:16GodEaterand one for £75, which hasn't met it's reserve - and I couldn't be bothered to keep bidding it find out where the reserve was
15:39:30GodEaterthat's probably the latter of the two I saw then :)
15:39:53*linuxstb is always amused by Toshiba's Gigabeat slogan - "Music sounds better in colour"
15:39:54Nico_Pyeah... i think the reserve was about £85
15:39:55GodEaterit took me a long time to find one on ebay.com which would ship to the UK
15:40:07GodEaterwhich is very frustrating - there are LOADS on there
15:40:17GodEaterbut very few people who are willing to ship outside the USA
15:40:24GodEater:(

16:38:54linuxstbbarrywardell: There's one problem with your bootloader patch. By loading the rockbox.ipod file directly to DRAM_START, you are overwriting the Apple firmware which has already been loaded there. So if (for example) the checksum in rockbox.ipod fails, the original firmware can't be started.

16:40:56linuxstbI mean when it failed in such a way as the apple firmware was corrupted?
16:40:57barrywardellno. so there is a potential bug
16:41:09barrywardelli'll have to fix that
16:41:12bluebrotherBagderr: in case you want to look over it, I changed the version number thingy to scroll on recorder. http://www.stud.uni-karlsruhe.de/~uhcn/pastebin/34
16:41:23DataGhostlinuxstb can't you just read the apple firmware off the disk again? :)
16:41:31barrywardellwould it be better to just restore the old load firmware->copy to DRAM_START?
16:42:02linuxstbI like the change - I think it's better to optimise for the normal case, rather than making it behave better when there's an error.
16:42:27barrywardellok, so maybe i'll try change the failsafe case to read from disk again...
16:42:33linuxstbNot loading the original firmware if there's a Rockbox error would be fine with me.
16:42:57barrywardellok, i'll just remove the failsafe code then
16:43:00linuxstbJust call the fatal_error() function which gives instructions to enter disk mode manually.

17:10:53linuxstbApart from the complication of two different bootloaders being out there...
17:10:59GodEaterI only mention it since I told someone in the forums I thought it was in the manual - and it blatantly isn't
17:11:18linuxstbGodEater: Quick, write a patch...
17:11:27*GodEater refuses to learn TeX
17:11:39linuxstbJust write it in text then...
17:11:49GodEaterand diff it against what ?
17:11:58linuxstbDon't diff, just provide a new section.
17:12:40linuxstbAnd English instructions saying where it should go.
17:12:40GodEaterI think it should be in the "Turning the player on and off section"
17:12:45GodEaterI don't think it needs a new one.
17:15:36GodEaterI also have no clue what to write for targets other than iPod - does that matter ?
17:17:30GodEateroh well - added it anyway.
17:17:53FebsAre there any targets that cannot dual boot?
17:17:57barrywardelllinuxstb: updated the patch. my comment has brief "how to dual boot" instructions too ;)

17:19:32barrywardellno, unfortunately I don't have a Gigabeat to work on
17:19:58barrywardellcould it not just be done the same as the other arm targets?
17:20:31Soul-SlayerBarry, may I ask how much battery life you get out of a 20gb H10 on Rockbox? I understand it is greater than the 5/6gb?

17:21:56barrywardellmarkun: load the firmware image to the start of RAM, then jump execution there. that's how dual boot works on most (all?) rockbox targets
17:22:20barrywardellmarkun: taking care to jump both processors
17:22:39barrywardellSoul-Slayer: Last time I checked, it was about 9-10 hours
17:22:45markunwell, the gigabeat works very different
17:23:28barrywardelldifferent how?
17:23:44markunbarrywardell: there is a bootloader in flash which loads: linux kernel, rootfs and initrd, decrypts them and executes the linux kernel
17:23:55markunwe replaced the kernel with our rockbox loader
17:24:37markunwe only have 1 core btw
17:24:40Soul-SlayerVery interesting... Does the 20gb model come with a greater amount of m/a with it's proprietary battery than the 5/6gb, or is it due to optimization issues for now?
17:26:03barrywardellmarkun: so can the rockbox loader not just load the linux kernel back again and pass execution to it when you want to load the of?
17:26:13linuxstbmarkun: So the original bootloader is still loading the rootfs and initrd?
17:26:59barrywardellSoul-Slayer: there is little optimisation difference between the models. the difference is the 20GB's 1550mAh battery vs the 5/6GB's 820mAh one

17:28:52markunand set the registers right
17:29:28goffayeah.. that would be very nice
17:29:30barrywardelland make sure the bootloader is running from iram

17:40:03linuxstbFebs: You don't.
17:40:26FebsOK.
17:40:27linuxstbThere's a patch for a dual-boot bootloader, but it's not official.
17:40:54n1slinuxstb, barrywardell: An idea for when you make new bootloaders available next time might be to include a version number similar to the one in the iriver h100/h300 to make it easier for users to find out which version they have
17:41:22linuxstbn1s: Yes, we should.
17:41:38linuxstbI guess we should call them version 3.
17:41:57barrywardelln1s: yes, good point
17:42:04markunlinuxstb: upgrading rockbox sometimes requires a bootloader update, so some versioning would be nice for that as well
17:42:13markun(for the Gigabeat)
17:42:44linuxstbYou mean so the bootloader can reject newer rockbox versions?
17:42:52 Nick Everybody|away is now known as Everybody (n=everybod@harpo.demon.co.uk)
17:43:06toffeOne question : are all the fonts usefull ? on the gigabeat some are only 3 or 4 pixel high ? are they used on antother target ?
17:43:09linuxstbOr simply to tell users which version they need?
17:43:19barrywardelln1s, linuxstb: it does already show bootloader version as APPSVERSION
17:43:46linuxstbtoffe: Some targets have very small mono LCDs, and some have remotes with mono LCDs.
17:44:03toffeok
17:44:06linuxstbtoffe: But I don't think anyone would argue against a font cleanup.
17:44:16barrywardellalthough maybe a more user friendly version number would be better...

19:08:35roufHi. I first heard of rockbox today, when I was searching for a way to add features to my Xclef 500
19:08:54n1snot supported
19:08:55roufI've read much of the wiki, and have a question about development
19:09:18dewdudethey don't know when device x will be supported
19:09:20roufMy main question is can Rockbox support Xclef, if I were to do the work?
19:09:30dewduderouf: possible.
19:09:30 Nick Everybody is now known as Everybody|food (n=everybod@harpo.demon.co.uk)
19:09:35roufIs there any fundamental reason it wouldn't work?
19:09:40dewdudeyou'd have to know the inner workings of the hardware
19:10:03roufI'm a firmware and hardware engineer, so I could probably figure it out
19:10:08RedbrevaUh! Sorry, SMF was unable to connect to the database. This may be caused by the server being busy. Please try again later.
19:10:43RedbrevaAnyone else having diffs with http://forums.rockbox.org/
19:10:51dewdudeahh...well..i'm no offical word..i'm just a normal user who hangs around here...but i'm sure if you know your stuff and would want to take on a massive project such as that, i'm sure they'd have no objections
19:10:55n1srouf: Here's a wiki page that lays out the basics for porting to a new device http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/RockboxFAQ?topic=NewPort

19:11:12roufI see that some of the groundwork was done by a guy in CZ, and there was a port for Gmini120, but both have seemed to dry up
19:11:38dewdudeit happens commonly...developing for these devices are difficult

19:12:03roufThanks, n1s - What kind of effort (man hours) can you expect to spend on porting to a new platform?
19:12:03 Quit Echelon (Remote closed the connection)
19:12:13roufIs it a year's work, or a month's?
19:12:40Mikachudepends on if you have specs on the hardware or have to guess
19:12:55roufok - just trying to get a feel for it. Thanks
19:13:04dewdudeyeah, if you can figure out all the hardware issues i'm sure it'd not take too long
19:13:17n1srouf: the two big roadblocks (except for someone actually doing any developing) is that you would have to figure out how to make it run your code, meaning crackin encryption, signing and what not and figure out how to use the hardware, by disassembly or if documentation is available
19:13:47roufOne thing I didn't see in the docs is whether rockbox supports recording in PCM or RAW (unencoded) form. Does anyone know?
19:14:03bluebrotheranother thing is the question if your device is similar (hw-wise) to an already existing port or if you need to do everything from ground up
19:14:11bluebrotherit does support PCM
19:14:14roufCool

19:31:06amiconnHmm, how much free space is there?
19:31:23dewdudei mean, i never said you had to have ipl....even I don't have ipl..my ipod is 5.5g
19:31:23dan_aamiconn: Gigs
19:31:58dewdudebut all the documentation is on thier website...actually has quite a bit of technical info on the units as well
19:32:01amiconnHmm, so with patch, it can't create a test file, and without patch, it's slow because disk access often hangs?
19:32:49JavaManalso is it just the num battery thats inaccurate or both?
19:33:33JavaManif the apple os is accurate about the battery why cant rockbox?
19:33:58Mikachumaybe because they built the thing
19:34:00bluebrother_is_ the apple os accurate?
19:34:15JavaMani think :o
19:34:15Mikachuit just has 4 levels

19:35:30amiconn:confused:
19:35:49dewdudepart of the reason rockbox isn't quite as accurate as it doens't really know the capacity of the battery currently in the unit
19:36:03JavaManhow do i find that out
19:36:29dewdudei'm not sure if they used a standard size among all units, which would seem logical...but..you'd have to dismantle the unit and examine the battery

19:38:15Soul-SlayerReally?
19:38:17dewdudeyes.
19:38:19Soul-SlayerProblem was only yesterday, lol
19:38:22*amiconn suspects a more general problem with the G3 ata driver, just covered up by the slower C transfer routines
19:38:38dewdudei've known about rocobox not supporting 80 gig since like, november when i started researching
19:38:48JavaManare there more plugins i can install other than the ones that came with rockbox?
19:38:51dewdudehell, i had my sidekick in the store looking at what models were supported before i purchased it
19:39:11dewdudeJavaMan, plugins are compiled into the code...so, you'd have to build your own rockbox and insert the plugin yourself
19:39:25Soul-SlayerAh no, dew, I didn't mean that
19:39:34JavaManoh
19:39:34Soul-SlayerI was reffering to this: "(18:37:27) JavaMan: also if rockbox can be installed on any ipod why cant ipodlinux?"
19:39:43Soul-SlayerWas pointing out that it didn't work on any ipod
19:39:47dewdudeohh...i only read phrases.
19:40:00Soul-SlayerShould have been more specific, sorry :p.
19:40:01dewdudei missed that any condition
19:40:05JavaManalso can i make rockbox read text files other than .txt?

21:46:35linuxstb_pixelma: There's something wrong with them?

21:52:19pixelmalinuxstb: and I think especially for games you would end up with lots of #ifdefs and it would be more confusing than it is right now because you need to look up the generic button action in a different file

21:52:34amiconnlinuxstb: Hmm, maybe I'll run into problems wrt firewire :(
21:52:36linuxstb_pixelma: I agree, but it probably just means we need more actions. e.g. Pong is an "up+down" game. Bubbles and brickmania are both "left/right/fire", other games need all four directions.
21:52:49amiconnMy laptop only has a 4-pin socket and hence no fw power

23:17:45dan_aIt still works with the original code - so I'm pretty sure it's not a disk error here.

23:19:46amiconnlinuxstb: Does it change to 'not attached' when connecting the charger afterwards?
23:20:44barrywardelllinuxstb_: attached means run/stop bit is set to run (which dr_controller_run() does)
23:21:28barrywardellit's a slightly confusing term
23:22:41barrywardellpage 1387 of the freescale reference manual has a diagram. it helps a little

23:43:58Bagdergrrrr
23:44:02Bagdersf is annoying
23:44:27JdGordonok, what do we want to do with the "nvram" settings on targets without nvram? keep them in a seperate file on disk? or just leave them all in config.cfg (remembering there is no current way to say to save those instead of all settings)
23:44:36BagderI get spammed by people filing spam "comments" in existing bug tracker entries...

23:45:29fasmaieAlonea: Ney
23:45:47ZagorJdGordon: save them all in the same file. it makes no sense to split them on targets without nvram
23:46:05fasmaieAlonea: Hey, actually. My typing skills have gone south
23:46:09Alonea^__^ I guess you can say hello over here too. Anything new anyone?
23:46:29JdGordonthe difference is that if people want to swap configs, those settings are not swaped
23:47:09Zagorthey're not?
23:47:22bluebrotherBagder, the current state of the release / svnversion script will always add the build date to the version information. Is this good?
23:47:29 Part fasmaie
23:47:37Bagderbluebrother: I think so
23:47:49JdGordonZagor: I meant, we dont want these settings to be swapped, the resume info and uptime and such

23:48:37ZagorJdGordon: ah, them. right, they're not really settings per se. we want to separate settings and storage
23:48:55JdGordonok, binary? or text file is fine?

23:50:36ZagorJdGordon: hmm, I'm not sure what I think. the downside with text files is increased code size and more complex updates.
23:50:59Zagor(i.e. you have to rewrite the entire file each update)
23:51:06CtcpIgnored 1 channel CTCP requests in 0 seconds at the last flood
23:51:06*amiconn would prefer binary for status
23:51:28JdGordonnot really, seen as that code isn handled for the rest of the settings anyway, a binary file would actually increase code size, it would also reintroduce a config version which is irritating
23:51:30amiconnCould use the same data structure as the nvram structure on targets which have it

23:51:52BagderJdGordon: you need the binary for nvram anyway
23:52:25ZagorBagder: good point. since we need binary anyway, let's not duplicate with text also.

23:53:48JdGordonok
23:54:11amiconnI doubt the nvram format version will change often, especially as we don't need bit packing
23:54:35pixelmaare those things like runtime data, resume position ...?
23:54:42JdGordonyes
23:54:52amiconnIt should be checked for validity though. A magic cookie and a checksum should do
23:55:18JdGordonbtw, once this is in, I want to strip those vars out of global_settings and put them into global_status, sound reasonable?
23:55:19amiconnChecksum can be crc32, advantage is that this function is already there
23:55:41amiconn(eats 4 bytes though)
