00:45:33winchesteri am not a developer and barely know the rockbox api...... can't be quick at this stage.
00:46:11GigabeaterIs there a specific way I am supposed to install a new build.. like I have a build from earlier in the month on my Gigabeat. It has a couple of problems, so I want to put the latest one on. Can I do that without it erasing information?
00:46:23midkayGigabeater: absolutely, all you need to do is unzip the latest build to your player.
00:46:37Gigabeaterand I click Yes to ALL?
00:46:42midkayGigabeater: yes.
00:46:46GigabeaterThanks
00:46:50midkayno problem.
00:47:48markunwinchester: firmware/target/arm/ipod/button-clickwheel.c
00:47:54GigabeaterJust unzip it to the .rockbox folder?
00:48:06markunGigabeater: no, just unzip it to the gigabeat
00:48:11Gigabeateroh okay
00:48:17linuxstbwinchester: And Rockboy uses the wheel-position APU - I think in rockboy/sys_rockboy.c
00:48:22linuxstb^API
00:48:53GigabeaterDoes it erase my Doom saves?
00:48:59markunno

00:54:35Shaidsounds like fun
00:55:01winchesterI doubt you could press where you need properly since the area would be way too small

00:59:09GigabeaterUmm.. I can't recall exactly.. this was nearly a month ago.
00:59:21GigabeaterI think I installed it where I figured it should go

01:06:36dan_aIf it had a model number on it, or worked the same way as one of the other LCDs it would be even better (and we'd have another PortalPlayer target without sound)

01:15:11dan_aI had no luck whatsoever roloing the Apple OS
01:16:01*linuxstb wonders how the ipod Color bootloader went from 62040 bytes to 46488 bytes...
01:16:13BobMorrisk I think I got the idea now... and have modified the download ling... now I just gotta resize that picture : )
01:16:37dan_alinuxstb: When did it do that?

01:19:47linuxstbYou could simply try it and see what happens. You'll need to add FLASH_SIZE to the config-e200.h
01:20:06linuxstbAll the ipods and the H10 have a 1MB flash afaics.
01:20:36dan_aI'm pretty sure there is - I'll push that on my stack of things to do... first I want to see if I can bring an unusable YH-820 back to life with the bootloader from a different one...

01:23:36 Quit akaidiot (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))

01:59:02preglowgtkspert: can you make it do so again?
01:59:13preglowgtkspert: had the eq been switched on previously in that session?
01:59:19XavierGrCOMPUTER has been up for: -4457 day(s) <- Cool uptime.exe microsoft windows utility

01:59:27XavierGr-4457? LOL
02:00
02:00:05gtkspertpreglow: the eq was only turned on while the song was playing
02:00:57preglowbut the plane engine starting thing needs a bit of elaboration
02:01:07preglowlow frequency rumble? white noise?
02:01:32gtkspertok, well, it was like white nois, getting higher in pitch as i listened, and you can barely hear the song in the background...
02:01:45gtkspertscared me the first time i did it...
02:01:45preglowhrmph
02:01:49preglowsounds like overflow
02:02:02preglowbut yeah, if you can make it do so again, that would be very helpful
02:02:04preglowhave you tried?
02:02:23gtksperti just tried then, and it is doing it
02:02:57preglowcan you make it do so consistently?
02:02:58gtkspertif i set the eq back to 0 it keeps playing normally
02:03:17gtkspertwhat do you mean by consistently?
02:03:18preglowsure, that switches it off
02:03:32preglowwell, if you can give me instructions on how to it myself, then maybe i can fix it
02:03:37preglowto do

02:15:03preglowi can make the eq make fucked up overflow sounds, but i don't think that's what you're having
02:15:13preglowhow much gain did you have on the lowshelf filter?
02:15:23gtkspert0.5
02:15:49preglowthen it isn't that for sure
02:16:03preglowi have to use +24 before i ever get that, and it depends on the source material
02:16:36gtksperti see
02:17:07dewdudei don't think i've ever gotten noise from the EQ at any level
02:17:30dewdudei just get random codec failures and horrible static
02:18:15preglowon what target?
02:18:20dewdudeipod
02:18:25preglownever gotten static
02:18:25dewdude5.5 30g
02:18:33dewdudewell, i'll get static on codec failures
02:18:43preglowahhh
02:18:44preglowright
02:18:45dewdudefrom i guess the player feeding the DAC the bitstream rather tahn PCM
02:18:48preglowi do get those without the static
02:18:58preglowdewdude: that's severely improbable
02:19:18preglowit's more likely the i2s interrupt isn't disabled somehow and it feeds garbage to the dac

02:26:29dewdudewhich is why i said it COULD of been bitstream being fed to DAC..not sure how things work exactly, but it was diffently the wrong stream getting into the DAC.
02:26:57dewdudeit's an annoyance to most people, and you're right, it shouldn't happen, but it happens less often than not for me. i just reboot and get on with the tunes
02:27:03preglowthat would be the weirdest bug ever
02:27:17 Quit funky ("leaving")
02:28:01dewdudeyeah...it would be. and, you're right, it's probably not possible..but for some reason at random musepack won't decode and i'll get DAC noise
02:29:24dewdudehowever, i can't reproduce it at will or figure out what's different that makes it happen
02:30:33dewdudei'd still love to find out of this thing can pump out dvda quality stuff (96khz 24-bit)
02:31:43preglowsure it can, but it probably won't sound like it
02:32:14dewdudewell, the flac decoder can decode it...but from various sources in here rockbox resamples to 44/16
02:33:11preglowyes
02:33:17preglowthat could be somewhat quickly changed, though
02:33:20preglowbut no one's done it yet
02:33:40dewdudeyeah, that's what i'm waiting for..becuase i ALMOST had it playing back the 96/24
02:33:54preglowi think we know how to do it, but so far our playback system relies on having just one output rate
02:34:20preglow24 bits you'll have to wait longer for, but that's the part that matters the least anyway
02:34:25preglowthe sample rate is more imptant
02:34:27preglowimportant too
02:34:30dewdudeehhh
02:34:35dewdudei disagree.
02:34:47dewdudebut i'm also an engineer and look at it differently
02:34:58preglowhave you read the specs on the ipod dac?
02:35:12preglow16 bit audio has a noise floor of about 96 dB
02:35:15dewdudei can't even find actual spec sheets on the ipod dac
02:35:18preglowthat's about exactly the same as the dac can handle
02:35:47preglowrockbox processes audio at a very high (bigger than 24 bits) resolution throughout, the conversion to 16 bits only happens at the last stage
02:35:55preglowso i don't think you'll hear much of an improvement
02:36:02preglowbut we'll probably find out for real some day
02:36:13dewdudein all honesty..most people can't really hear the difference between 44/16 and 96/24

02:36:49 Part Vague_Rant

02:37:23dewdudewell, the noise floor isn't my issue for using 24
02:37:35preglowthen what is?
02:37:44dewdudethe higher resolution and more percise waveform recreation
02:38:06ShaidHeck, Creative sold soundcards for years claiming they did 24bit output, and no one noticed they were lying until someone did a waveform analysis on it...
02:38:28preglowdewdude: if the noise floor is the same, it doesn't matter
02:38:30markunpreglow: perhaps the EQ problems are just a side effect of some other problems on the Gigabeat
02:38:56markunI think we have some problem related to DMA/write buffer/caching
02:39:12dewdudepreglow, ehhhh....i don't want to get into it. i pretty much have a totally different opinion on the subject than everyone else. everyone starts talking about nyquist...i just keep yelling analog.
02:39:45preglowdewdude: we'll all find out the day we support 96/24 and we can do double blind tests anyway ;)
02:39:47markunfor example, when I leave a plugin the background code is reset correctly but the background pattern used for filling still has the colour of the plugin
02:39:56preglowmarkun: weird
02:39:59preglowmarkun: well, i hope so
02:40:04preglowit'll be a weird bug if that's not the cae

02:42:53NiflIf i install Rockbox on my iPod video 30gig, can i restore the original iPod firmware later ? like reseting the ipod?
02:43:02dewdudei mean, technically...the CD format has better sound than vinyl...16 bit has a lower noise floor...it's engineers that compress things.
02:43:04preglowNifl: yes
02:43:05gtksperti dont think so, hold on
02:43:20dewdudeNifl: the ipod firmware never goes anywhere. you can boot either it or rockbox.
02:44:03dewdudethe bootloader loads rockbox by default, but you can tell it to load the original ipod OS on boot..you don't have to reset the ipod to get that back.
02:44:11NiflIs it easy to remove rockbox, if i dont like it or something ? cuz i wanna try it
02:44:21dewdudesure. if you can follow directions.
02:44:35gtkspertpreglow: nope, it works fine on the other bands...
02:44:38dewdudeit's as easy as a single command at a command prompt.
02:44:44gtkspertanyway, talk to you guys later on...
02:45:44x1jmpCan someone explain me how to use playback_control with menu_run?
02:45:48preglowmarkun: that doesn't exactly point it out as one of those errors
02:45:55preglowthe ls band is the most problematic ones in terms of dsp
02:47:08dewdudeit also lacks the boom that putting band 2 at 60hz has.
02:47:41preglowthat's because putting a peaking filter at 60hz will give you the specified gain at 60
02:47:45preglowhz
02:47:54preglowputting the ls filter at 60hz will give you the ls gain/2 at 60 hz
02:48:11NiflDoes rockbox only install stuff on the HD ?
02:48:19dewdudeyeah, i know. the only problem i've had with the eq is that LS band having no real oomph..but being quite literally a shelf filter
02:48:27preglowso pk filter at 12 db gain at 60 hz gives you 12 gain at 60 hz, ls filter at 60hz with 12 gain gives you 6 db gain at 60 hz
02:48:40preglowdewdude: which is what it's supposed to be? :-)
02:49:14dewdudepreglow, that's true..but it also means i have to use a band to add the oomph i like....i solved all my problems....i'm comboing the hardware and software EQ's
02:49:19dewdudesounds beter than i imagined
02:49:36preglowthere probably are better ways to implement the lowshelf filter, but i'm not skilled enough to know
02:49:39dewdudeNifl, yes, rockbox is installed to the HD..none of the code screened into the chips is affected
02:49:53preglowas it is, the rockbox eq filters should match pretty much all the other standard eqs in use out there
02:49:55dewdudedude, i'm only a "slide adjuster" according to my friend
02:49:57preglowdigital, that is
02:50:17dewdudeheh, if i had 12 or 13 bands, i could do magic with it.
02:50:23dewdudei mean, it's an excellent EQ.
02:50:25preglowif only because i use the basic filters they do, and indeed, probably even the same source formulas

02:56:55dewdudewell..as habit from my younger days, i do like a tad more bass in playback than what's usually mastered in.
02:56:57preglownothing beats high q peaking filters in that regard
02:57:09luckzwell, it's a good argument for rockbox if it does all the OF does and more.
02:57:25dewdudebut my Shure's have a different sound than my sennheisers, so most of my EQ work is reflattening them out

03:04:47luckz04:35:58 < Soap> 80 GB ipods are not supported. 04:36:04 < Soap> they don't work at this time. 04:36:18 < scorche> uninstall rockbox
03:04:51luckzokay? :p
03:05:01webguest75hmm
03:05:14linuxstbdewdude: Rockbox can see itunes-loaded music fine in database mode.
03:05:18luckz(we had all that 22.5 hours ago)
03:05:36dewdudelinuxstb, yes, however, i said by default because someone installing rockbox should read it in the manual.
03:05:44webguest75well, guess ill just have to wait; thats kinda dissapointing though, since neither rockbox, nor iPL will work on the 80s
03:06:11dewdudeand if someone can't understand that the qualifier "by default" means that it still can, then, i'm sorry about thier stupidity
03:06:18linuxstbwebguest75: The reason's known, it's just a matter of time for Rockbox to be adjusted to it.
03:06:37webguest75linuxstb, and what would that reason be??

03:07:32linuxstbdewdude: "by default" to me means you need to do special things, and I don't consider the database special - it's one of the two standard ways Rockbox lets you browse your files.
03:08:11dewdudetrue...however it has to be initalized and enabled...but..since i don't want beef with you, next time i have to explain to someone, i'll make spencial mention of database mode
03:10:04linuxstbwebguest75: The disk in the 80GB ipod video can only be read two sectors at a time, compared to one sector for every other disk.

04:42:21Soapit WON'T
04:42:28SoapRockbox is its own program.
04:42:30Shaidif you’r referring to the bit on the ipl wiki, that’s for 30gs.
04:42:36SoapIt has nothing to do with ipod linux

04:43:48Soapforget IPL for a moment, webguest74.
04:43:50webguest74which could solve the issue with rockbox
04:43:55SoapIPL has NOTHING to do with Rockbox.
04:43:57webguest74ok
04:44:02scorchewinchester: main
04:44:03webguest74its forgotten
04:44:08Soapand that is not "the issue with rockbox"
04:44:11winchesterwhich file is it in?
04:44:58webguest74i was told like 1hour ago when i came in here that the reason that rockbox dosent work on the 80 has to do with rockbox not being able to see the 80gig HD properly
04:45:03Soapthe issue is known, it is being worked on, and if it was something as simple as a magic reformat it would have been solved, and we would not tell people the 80GB does not work with Rockbox.
04:45:23Soapwebguest74: and that is a matter of the HD's firmware, not of its format.
04:46:04webguest74ok, and i believe that you are probably right, but if nothing else i willl try to put on rockbox when i hopefullly successfuly install iPL

04:56:08SoapI totally grok your desire to maintain the phone paradigm, but I think the fact that "1" can't be pressed, and the fact "5" must be pressed makes "5" the better choice for space.
04:56:11scorchewiththat reasoning, whoneeds the 1 key?
04:57:45Soapsee, "5" has to be pressed, while 2, 4, 6, 8 _can't_ be pressed w/o invoking other actions - I have a feeling that will lead to inadventant presses.
04:58:20winchestermeh..... easier to use than the current method
04:58:27Soapand where is delete?

05:01:16winchesterno way to press left without 4 being called right?
05:01:20SoapYou need also some way to press Menu, Play, <<, >> w/o registering as a letter - and whatever method you use to prevent letter registration on a push (as opposed to a touch) must not delay registering touches so much that you have a laggy interface.
05:02:27winchesterok..... since there will be delay to allow for the char to be entered.... if left or right is pressed within that time the char will be cancelled and backspace/delete will be called
05:02:33winchesterhow's that?
05:02:51SoapI don't know. ;)
05:03:03winchesteri'll give it a shot and see how it goes
05:03:27 Quit Thundercloud (Remote closed the connection)
05:03:39SoapAgain, if you were willing to break the phone SMS paradigm a bit, you could have short touch of 2=A, medium length touch = B and long touch = C, so you don't need to tap three times.
05:03:57Soapnah, that's not a good idea.
05:04:03winchesterwhy not?

05:13:53winchesternope
05:14:32winchesterhmm

06:44:04winchesterkind of
06:44:21winchesterthough that looks better than what I was thinking
06:44:23Mikachui've made a plugin that does 5165
06:44:31Mikachubut it's sort of crappy
06:44:40Mikachuyou can have a look if you want
06:44:52winchesterwhere can I find it?
06:45:11Mikachuhttp://mikachu.ath.cx/textinput.c
06:45:37Mikachuyou'll need to comment out the set_trigger_delta calls since they don't exist
06:46:00winchesterok thanks
06:46:25Mikachuit really sucks with the delta at 10 though
06:47:45winchesterI don't really understand some of it
06:47:54winchesterthe alphabet is a matrix right?
06:48:30Mikachuyeah
06:48:30winchester(not so great with c.... just doing this for the sake of doing something)
06:48:56Mikachuif you look at the png in the tracker, where you put down your finger selects the honeycomb, and where you release selects the letter
06:51:38winchestergah..... don't understand the use of matrices for char mapping
06:52:03Mikachufirst one is the line, second is the column..
06:52:14winchesterwell yeah I get that much
06:52:36Mikachuit's easier to use a custom layout from a text file this way

07:40:55amiconn?
07:41:04Mikachui think they all do?
07:41:20*amiconn doesn't fully understand what you mean
07:41:47winchesterthe scroll wheels which have the 96 touch spot things
07:41:52winchesterand nuh I know the 1g mini doesn't
07:41:57amiconnAll ipods have a wheel
07:42:17amiconn...and all of them are touch wheels, except the 1st gen ipod
07:42:37Mikachuwinchester: heh, i just realized my plugin won't work for you, BUTTON_TOUCH is not in svn :)
07:43:12amiconnBut I don't know whether all of them allow to read the touched position, if that's what you mean
07:43:16winchesterMikachu: nuh my code is completly different and for different targets.... I was just wondering how to get the alphabet right
07:43:29Mikachuright, just in case you wanted to try it
07:43:38winchesteryeah.... which ones don't let you read the touched positions?

07:44:05Mikachuwinchester: you just have to check #ifdef HAVE_WHEEL_POSITION
07:44:39Mikachuconfig-ipod4g.h:#define HAVE_WHEEL_POSITION config-ipodcolor.h:#define HAVE_WHEEL_POSITION config-ipodmini2g.h:#define HAVE_WHEEL_POSITION config-ipodnano.h:#define HAVE_WHEEL_POSITION config-ipodvideo.h:#define HAVE_WHEEL_POSITION
07:44:46amiconnI *think* 3rd gen and earlier, and the mini 1st gen
07:44:50winchesterah.... that would be the.... simpler way
07:44:51winchesterthanks
07:45:47Mikachuyou currently have to poll the driver for the wheel position though
07:46:04winchesterwhat does that mean?
07:46:48amiconnMikachu: I think the touchwheel ipods could have an extra function in the button driver that switches between scroll events and position events
07:46:55winchesterI have got past the getting of wheel position.... it's in the api and all
07:47:31Mikachuamiconn: possibly, i just added a function for setting the delta value to 1, the scroll events already send the absolute position too
07:47:42Mikachuand also added sending events for touching / stopping touching
07:48:05amiconnBUTTON_TOUCH?
07:48:08Mikachuyeah
07:48:16amiconnMakes sense
07:48:19Mikachui called the other one BUTTON_UNTOUCH
07:48:35amiconnWhy not just BUTTON_TOUCH|BUTTON_REL
07:48:36amiconn?
07:48:44Mikachui guess i didn't think that far
07:48:52Mikachuheh
07:52:21winchestercan't find anything for BUTTON_UNTOUCH in button-clickwheel.c
07:52:37winchesteris it ok to just do while wheel_status != -1?
07:53:48winchesteroh wait nvrm..... that's not what I am doing.
07:54:11Mikachuthat's polling, but you'll want to sleep some time between each check
07:55:22winchesteryeah 'course
07:55:41winchesterah ok..... didn't know what polling was
07:55:47winchesternot up to scratch with the lingo
07:55:57Mikachuthe "opposite" is events
07:56:37winchesterI don't even know how events work in C >.>
07:56:46winchestereverything is just do while or do until for me
07:56:55Mikachuheh
07:57:04Mikachuwell, when you call button_get you are waiting for an event
07:57:47winchesteroh...... so it doesn't go on to the next step if you have false as the argument?
07:58:11Mikachui don't remember if false or true makes it wait, but it doesn't return until the user presses a button in that case
07:59:19winchesterthat seems to be buggy
07:59:46Mikachuif you want to wait for the user to press a button it's pretty handy
08:00
08:00:37winchesterit ignores the first few keypresses sometimes though
08:00:53Mikachuah, you mean an actual bug, i thought you meant the concept
08:01:05Mikachuit sometimes doesn't work right if you just turned off hold
08:01:33winchesteryeah.... or just turned on the player

08:08:59Mikachuno chance, sorry
08:09:00decayedcellDrumr a build with the cop patch would be good
08:09:28puffThe first few months, I deliberately avoided rockbox because this is the first apple product I've owned since the Apple II+, and I wanted to get that "apple" feeling.
08:09:39puffOkay, so I've had it, so now, about rockbox... :-)
08:09:50Mikachupuff: it's a 2nd gen nano, isn't it?
08:09:54puffOh, yeah, come to think of it, IRRC rockbox didn't support mine.
08:09:56puffYeah.
08:10:08Mikachuit doesn't
08:10:17puffArgh. Okay, back to the ol' apple interface.
08:11:01puffI'm having some sort of werd problem, I can generally put music on the nano (though right now amarok and gtkpod are fighting) but nothing seems to manage to get a playlist onto the nano.
08:11:12puffThough maybe it's something obvious and I'm just "doing it wrong".

11:42:18linuxstb_dan_a: Are you around?
11:44:01winchesterhey, how do you round up a number in C?
11:45:16Entasis_ceil?
11:45:51linuxstb_integer divisions will always truncate - are you sure you need to round up?
11:46:12linuxstb_You want to avoid floating point unless it's absolutely necessary.
11:46:29winchesterif I was to divide an integer by 12 and then round it up?
11:47:07Entasis_(int + 11) / 12?
11:47:07 Quit printfXh4 (Remote closed the connection)
11:47:33Shaidisn’t that what mod is for?
11:47:37linuxstb_(int + 6)/12 may do what you want.
11:47:38Shaidor the counterpart.
11:47:41*Shaid shrugs
11:48:00winchesterand could I use ceil (x/12) or should I avoid that?
11:48:08winchesterand use (int + 11) / 12?
11:48:15linuxstb_Avoid it. Rockbox probably doesn't even have a ceil() function.
11:48:51linuxstb_Do you want 0-5 to give 0, 6-17 to give 1, 18-29 to give 2 etc etc ?
11:49:09winchesteryup
11:49:16linuxstb_Then (int + 6)/12 will do it.
11:50:06winchester*+11?
11:50:32linuxstb_Not if you want the mapping you just said "yup" to.
11:50:48Entasis_+11 will round up, +6 will round to nearest
11:50:59winchesteroh nuh I need to round up
11:51:26winchesterI haven't slept in quite a while.... got carried away..... tend to get slow.
11:51:59linuxstb_But if you just do (int / 12), then 0-11 will give 0, 12-23 will give 1 etc etc.
11:52:30winchesternuh.... need to specifically round up
11:52:38linuxstb_Just tell me how the mapping should work.
11:53:28winchester13/12 =2
11:53:35winchester11/12=1
11:53:37winchesteretc
11:53:40linuxstb_12/12 = ?
11:53:55winchesternot important
11:55:18linuxstb_Then either (int + 11)/12 or (int + 12)/12 depending if you want 12/12 to be 1 or 2.

12:01:03linuxstb_You mean images as in bitmaps?
12:03:46winchesteris "int[2]={-1,5};" a valid line or do I need to make a loop to fill the array?
12:03:57linuxstb_The most interesting thing is that the disk mode code seems to be a standalone application that we can potentially launch with Rolo. This means that implementing our own disk mode code is no longer a pre-requisite for flashing on the ipods.

12:06:03winchesterconstant
12:07:17linuxstb_Then you should define it using something like "static const int myarray[] = {-1, 5, 1, 4, 5 };" (with as many numbers as you want in the brackets).
12:07:39winchesterwhat does static do?
12:08:00Slasherilinuxstb_: that is great to hear. How big is that diskmode code image?
12:08:06winchesterAs in.... what's the diff between static and constant......?

12:10:20linuxstb_That's on the 5g. For some reason, it's larger on my ipod Color (250KB) and the mini2g (228KB). The Nano is only 175KB.
12:10:40linuxstb_A fair proportion of that is probably the graphics.

12:11:10linuxstb_But yes, it is huge.
12:11:42Shaidimages an in bitmaps, yes.
12:12:02Slasherihowever, it could be still possible to find some interesting stuff from it such as the display initialization sequence (unless bootloader does that before)
12:12:02Shaidhow big is it on the 4g greyscale?
12:13:02linuxstb_Slasheri: There's also the "diagnostics mode" application - that's only about 95KB.
12:13:39linuxstb_You enter diagnostics mode by holding SELECT+LEFT when booting.
12:14:13Slasherilinuxstb_: oh, that would be much more interesting then.. i will try out that soon
12:14:38Slasheriand you could rolo that application also?
12:15:27linuxstb_Not reliably - rolo doesn't do anything with the COP currently - it only "rolos" the main CPU...
12:15:40Slasheriah..
12:16:07linuxstb_But if you use my "flashsplit.c" file, that gives you "diskmode.ipod" and "diagmode.ipod" files. You can then write these to your ipod's firmware partition with "ipodpatcher -wf diagmode.ipod", and that will work.
12:16:13Slasheribut somehow it would be nice to modify the code and rolo the modified binary
12:16:27Slasherinice =)
12:16:54linuxstb_Not useful in practice, but it shows that rolo should in theory be able to launch them.
12:18:15linuxstb_And the ipods use a similar SST flash chip to the h1x0 - I was comparing your iriver_flash.c code with the datasheet for my ipod Color's flash, and they seem the same.
12:18:45Slasherihehe
12:18:58linuxstb_But I shouldn't go there yet....
12:21:29bluebrotherwhat's your current goal? Extract the disk mode handling from the OF to analyze it?
12:21:44bluebrotheror is there already something working in RB itself?
12:26:08linuxstb_I don't think we need to analyse the OF disk mode code - I think MrH's discovery that the USB hardware in the portalplayer chips is the same as the i.MX31 which has a public datasheet is enough.
12:26:55linuxstb_But currently we reboot into Apple's disk mode code. If we get rolo working, we can cut out the reboot to enter disk mode.
12:27:13bluebrotherah. Nice idea
12:27:33linuxstb_As we've discovered that the disk mode code is in fact just a standalone firmware which is copied from flash to RAM and executed like any other ipod firmware.

12:40:57linuxstb_Running "ipodpatcher -d" (with a recent version of ipodpatcher) will remove the bootloader.
12:41:57Shaidand then you just delete .rockbox folder and the rockbox.ipod file
12:42:56linuxstb_Slasheri: There's also a USB driver in the Linux kernel for the same chipset.

12:45:48linuxstb_Also, have you created "diskmode.ipod" and "diagmode.ipod" files for testing? Maybe they are less fussy than apple_os.ipod
12:47:10dan_alinuxstb_: I was testing with first roloing the running kernel, and in the tests where that worked then I'd try apple_os.ipod

12:50:48dan_aMy basic plan is that the CPU sends a message to the COP to reload, the COP invalidates then disables its cache, maybe turns off mmapping (but I think that mmap is common across both cores) and then jumps to either 0x0 or 0x10000000.
12:51:19linuxstb_When would it jump 0x0?
12:52:40linuxstb_Are you doing the rolo stuff in the cop_main() function?

13:37:57linuxstb_If cop_main() is calling another function, that may involve writing some values on the stack. If the stack is in SDRAM, then you could overwrite the firmware you're roloing.
13:39:02dan_aIt's in IRAM

14:26:38Mikachui like running them from files, that means i can get the updated diskmode without having to actually flash
14:27:00linuxstb_dan_a: Yes, I think Rockbox's usb initialisation/detection breaks the diskmode code. You could test it by disabling Rockbox's usb code.
14:27:20linuxstb_Mikachu: You need to flash in order to extract them...
14:27:29Soapor could you binary patch so that Diskmode jumps to Rockbox code instead of rebooting?
14:27:37Mikachui am hoping i can get you or preglow to send it :)
14:28:21linuxstb_Soap: That's possible, but is a greyer legal area and the time would probably be better spent working on the native USB driver.
14:29:23SoapThank you linuxstb_, I was just curious about all this while reading the logs.
14:30:16Mikachuthe flash seems to be 1MB, would it be possible to fit a bootloader and rockbox in there?
14:30:53Mikachunot that it should do much difference on a nano i guess, no hd to spin up
14:31:03linuxstb_Yes, that would be the long-term aim.
14:31:25Shaidwouldn’t that break OF compatibility?
14:31:45Mikachuno, but it would get rid of the apple logo :)
14:31:47linuxstb_Maybe, maybe not. But it's not a concern.
14:31:59desowincurrently all codecs use the same id3 code ?
14:32:06Soapit would be funny to have to launch OF from disk while Rockbox is in flash.
14:32:07jhMikeSpreglow: I don't get any boost any more turning on all the fancy dsp stages...what'd I do wrong? ;)
14:32:44linuxstb_Flashing would always be an optional way to install Rockbox, so if users wanted to keep OF compatibility, they simply wouldn't flash (if indeed flashing broke the OF).
14:33:03Mikachuit would help on nano since the apple flash always loads the whole apple os from the firmware partition...
14:33:17linuxstb_You can easily stop it doing that.
14:33:35SoapMikachu: someone could overwrite the internal apple logo now if they wanted to, could they not? Or does the flash check its own checksum/hash?
14:34:01linuxstb_Mikachu: ipodpatcher -rf apple_os.bin ; cp apple_os.bin /mnt/ipod/ ; ipodpatcher -wf bootloader-ipodnano.ipod

14:36:45linuxstb_Mikachu: That's my thought as well. The only reason I can think of for a checksum on the whole flash would be to prevent tempering. If it's corrupt, then there's nothing the bootloader can do....
14:37:19Mikachufunny, roloing the diskmode.ipod didn't let me mount now
14:37:20linuxstb_Although in diagnostics mode, there's a "flash checksum" option which spits out a 16-bit checksum.
14:37:23Shaidhow are you planning to reflash the flash?
14:37:41linuxstb_The flash is a standard component with datasheets. It's easy to flash.
14:37:50linuxstb_But obviously very risky...
14:38:07Mikachuit doesn't let you flash by just writing to the address you read it from, right?
14:38:17linuxstb_You just write a magic sequence of values to magic addresses in the flash, and that allows you to erase/write.
14:38:17Shaidhypothetically: if you modify it, and it breaks your ipod and stops it booting, will it be easily fixable?
14:38:22Mikachuah
14:38:58linuxstb_The ipod's flash is very similar to the flash in the h1x0 - look at the apps/plugins/iriver_flash.c plugin for how it works.

14:46:41Mikachuputting IF_MV(0) in disk_init() seems to fix it
14:49:16jhMikeSpreglow: not really...good abuse. It rules for clamping and scaling in the final output over anything else. And help do line bursts to the pcm buffer.
14:49:53Mikachulinuxstb_: you wrote cp apple_os.bin /mnt/ipod, i don't have to do anything to make it .ipod first?
14:50:33linuxstb_Mikachu: Sorry, I mistyped - just rename it. The -rf command will write it in .ipod format.
14:50:40Mikachuah
14:50:58jhMikeSI switch it to integer mode for that and multiply everything by 1 << (16 - scale) and then take the upper 16 bits
14:51:13Mikachuwow yeah, that was faster
14:52:24preglowjhMikeS: ahaha, so that's asm too

14:52:49preglowjhMikeS: when're you going to commit?
14:53:04linuxstb_Rolo'ing it won't work, but the bootloader can successfully load it - the bootloader looks for apple_os.ipod before looking for an "internal" copy.
14:53:11Mikachuah right
14:54:18jhMikeSpreglow: got a big lump now...and will continue some more after that. I added a setup to make sending dsp params to the asm routines easier as well.
14:54:25jhMikeSso soon
14:54:45preglowall the dsp plus a codec with no boost is quite insane, though
14:55:05Mikachufunky, i get the No RetailOS detected message, but with a light blue background

22:10:35SkBI never have problems like these.

22:11:33preglowthe result would be exactly the same if we used parallel filters, afaik, but we'd have to use bandpass, lowpass and highpass filters instead of the ones we use nmow

22:16:42jhMikeSlinuxstb_: yes...but those don't count ;)
22:16:52preglowyou either need to run all filters in parallel, one sample at a time, at would give more memory pressure
22:16:58preglowor you need an extra buffer for input samples

22:28:39SkBthe font package goes in the root directory of the ipod or the rockbox directory?
22:28:47Bagderafair, that'll limit it to use only 9 bytes, ie 8 + zero
22:29:20Bagderwhich doesn't fit with the line above "cnt %= 9999999" which uses 9 digits
22:29:33MikachuSkB: yes and no, the font files go in /.rockbox/fonts, but you extract it to / because the zip has the directory structure

22:42:12peturyes
22:43:35peturbut you could start at a high number and wrap around, so you need to keep track of it. The calling code does goto restart:, maybe a counter can be used there.

22:45:13jhMikeSbut then it's not a "dos" name anymore ;)
22:45:22peturif you create x~999999.ext, and _then_ create x~999999.ext2 you'll get a wrap

23:30:33preglowand vice versa
23:30:48preglowalso, since voice almost always has a different sample rate, the filters won't be right at all

23:31:14preglowok, then the first issue is all that matters
23:31:20preglowsounds like a waste of cpu, though
23:31:26preglowmost processing should be done before resampling
23:31:33 Join Thundercloud_ [0] (n=thunderc@82.153.13.38)
23:31:39preglowbut then we'd need more code to support multiple sample rates, i guess

23:31:57preglowmy sw tone controls don't, at least not right now
23:32:02jhMikeSI don't wanna do that at 88 or 96 khz for god sakes :)
23:32:05soundsjhMikeS: so you reckon that the X5 has better sound than the H1xx series, in what way ?
23:32:48jhMikeSsounds: It's very much clearer...to the point sounds in the heaphones can sound real...no joke
23:33:07soundsI have h140 only, just asking as I might get a X5, if its that better
23:33:09preglowjhMikeS: i guess it's right with regards to resampling, btw, if you're using a lower sample rate, you should have cycles to burn on the eq anyway
23:33:20preglowjhMikeS: and if you're using a higher sample rate, you probably want to apply it post resampling anywa
23:33:34soundsbut if tis a SW decoder how can there be a difference
23:33:41*jhMikeS really doesn't want the nightmare of actual switching
23:33:57preglowonly probably, though, with the current resampler, you really want to apply it before resampling so you won't be amplifying aliasing frequencies
23:34:04jhMikeSsounds: different codec chip....more basic and that's probably part of the reason
