#rockbox log for 2007-03-22

00:00:35amiconnGPIO_C bit 1 tells you whether firewire is connected, and GPIO_C bit 2 whether firewire power is provided
00:00:52amiconnThe same is true for G4 (color and greyscale)
00:01:19amiconnOn G5 you can detect firewire power with GPIO_L bit 3
00:01:26amiconn(for charging)
00:03:10bluebrotherhmm, ipod 1G and 2G even have the LLC in hardware. Quite nice.
00:03:27bluebrotherI might play around with it at some time ...
00:04:12amiconnApple diskmode handles firewire just fine, so we can do our usual reboot magic the same way as for usb
00:04:17***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
00:04:26bluebrothersounds good :)
00:04:38amiconnI just didn't find the time to look into usb.c and add it there
00:05:04bluebrothertime ... this damn limiting factor
00:05:11amiconnSounds a bit odd to add it in usb.c ... but do we really want a separate firewire screen?
00:05:30bluebrotherhehe ... add a separate firewire image ;-)
00:05:31amiconn(and separate detection logic etc)
00:05:37DataGhostconnectivity.c? :P
00:05:55amiconnDataGhost: A bit too general, eh?
00:05:57bluebrotherbut no, as long as we reboot to apple disk mode anyway I don't think we need that.
00:06:13amiconnThis would then also include (in the future) usbotg, bluetooth, wlan, ...
00:06:14bluebrothermagiccableconnection.c :P
00:06:37robin0800nico_p just tried your patch but it compiles with errors
00:06:39bluebrothermagiccableandwirelessconnection.c even
00:06:42amiconnuglywhitecableconnection.c :P
00:06:49bluebrotherLOL
00:06:49DataGhosthehe
00:06:54DataGhostand what if you put it in the dock? :P
00:07:00Lloreanamiconn: Diskmode.c?
00:07:04Nico_Probin0800: errors ? are you sure they aren't warning ?
00:07:09bluebrotheruglyplasticboxconnection.c ;-)
00:07:21DataGhostheh
00:07:36DataGhostI made one from wood and the 'dock converter' thingy that shipped with my 5.5G
00:07:41DataGhostand a spare cable
00:07:49DataGhostonly my 4G fits in... 5.5G doesn't work :(
00:08:37bluebrotherok, so for your case we need some additional name ;-)
00:08:44*bluebrother just tries svn blame ...
00:09:08robin0800this is what i get http://pastebin.ca/405807
00:10:19bluebrotherrobin0800: that's not compiling, thats applying the patch
00:10:26bluebrotheri.e. it doesn't apply cleanly
00:10:30LloreanOh, I found something interesting on Gigabeat. Long press of power (but not very-long press) selects a file. Making quick paged browsing difficult, since, well, when you release the button you invoke whichever file you were on (not to mention combining the page browsing button with the power button may not be wise)
00:11:36robin0800yes you are correct not sure if iwant to go any further with it
00:11:40pixelmarobin0800: I didn't have any problems patching the latest version after an svn up about... 1,5 hours ago
00:12:37bluebrotherrobin0800: no, compiling will fail as the patch didn't apply completely.
00:12:50bluebrothercheck if you have the latest version of the patch and current svn

00:13:26nlsjhMikeS: red...
00:13:35LloreanYou can't really effectively test a single patch, if you're going to put multiple patches on your build
00:13:38 Quit x1jmp (Remote closed the connection)
00:13:44LloreanIt's somewhat impossible to say at that point what's causing bad behaviour
00:14:13robin0800blue brother I have both current
00:14:36Lloreanrobin0800: Try it with only the tokenizer patch. Album Art seems very likely to conflict...
00:15:01Nico_Probin0800: Llorean's right... this patch is incompatible with any other patch that affects the WPS
00:15:09robin0800perhaps it dosn't like the album art patch
00:15:19Nico_Probin0800: you should test it alone
00:16:02Lloreanrobin0800: If you're actually trying to be helpful and 'test' a patch, you should always, always apply it on its own.
00:16:54robin0800but I like my album art and don't realy want to be parted from it
00:17:12bluebrotheryou can have multiple rockbox.something files on your player ...
00:17:39LloreanBesides, you're *testing* it
00:17:44bluebrotherand as long as you don't change something about codecs you should be safe having two builds sharing the same shared data
00:17:53bluebrotherlike codecs and stuff
00:18:04bluebrotheras long as you use matching svn revision numbers.
00:18:24bluebrother"testing" means you try to create a single change and check how it behaves.
00:18:47bluebrotherwho needs album art anyway? :P
00:19:18LloreanBasically, if you're unwilling to follow a 'proper' style of testing, you could always just not apply the tokenizer patch.
00:20:00robin0800Can you have two .rockbox folders on one player?
00:20:10bluebrotherno. Two firmware files

00:20:27bluebrotheror rockbox.iriver etc.
00:20:39bluebrotheryou can put in a second one. Just keep the extension
00:20:44jhMikeSnls: indeed...fixing now
00:21:01bluebrotherof course Rockbox will always load rockbox.ipod −− the other one you'll need to rolo
00:21:15 Part nls
00:21:25bluebrotherbut it's great for testing ... and I believe it's one of the main purposes of rolo

00:25:12 Quit ender` (" I'm a complex person. I have a real and an imaginary part.")
00:25:37QwertManHey, I've got two questions: When do you think there will be a stable release for the Sansa e200, and will future released of Rockbox for the Sansa e200 be less plain, or at least provide the ability to skin th UI?
00:25:49robin0800but it will have to be rockbox.ipod at that point?
00:25:50bluebrotherof course you need to use the file browser to locate the file and set "file types" to "supported" at least
00:26:05bluebrotherno, it just needs to have the extension to get recognized
00:26:23bluebrotherit's like an audio file: only the extension matters to recognize e.g. an mp3 file
00:26:42bluebrotherQwertMan: we don't extimate release dates
00:26:51robin0800so I could use rockbox.txt?
00:27:07bluebrotherrobin0800: nooo. You need to keep the *extension*
00:27:26 Part QwertMan
00:27:42robin0800can I change the name?
00:27:43bluebrotheroh, QwertMan left quickly ...
00:28:09bluebrother00:20 < bluebrother> you can put in a second one. Just keep the extension
00:28:54robin0800rockbox_2.ipod would work?
00:29:02bluebrotheryes. *sic*
00:29:45robin0800Well I will Try It Then many thanks

00:41:02pixelmabluebrother: I can confirm the "Nothing to Resume" hang... happens on Ondio too when the playlist finishes. Additionally when using the short cut from main menu to WPS and then want to stop, it stops and immediately bounces back to wps as in resume
00:41:24pixelma...I thought I read about a fix of the latter but can't find it now
00:42:39bluebrotherJdGordon committed a "fix" some hours ago but that didn't fix it
00:43:21bluebrotherI'm currently looking into root_menu.c ... still haven't found a reason why struct root_items uses a void* as parameter for the function call
00:44:24pixelmahmm...ok - it also happens with the tokenizer version that was patched with fairly recent SVN (and the tokenizer shouldn't affect this)
00:46:37pixelmathough I only experience the "bouncing" now - at the end of the playlist it seems to be alright now)
00:48:27bluebrotherare you using your ondio? Maybe it's different for HWCODEC
00:50:06pixelmayes that's on Ondio - could try the M5 but would have to grab a new version first

00:57:20midgeyi think i remember an old policy where posts in certain forums (namely the rockbox section) dont count toward the post total
00:58:52pixelmabluebrother: aha...interesting - on M5 I get both problems too with recent svn (grabbed from the site)
00:59:02bluebrotherok. The problem is caused by gui_wps_show returning GO_TO_PREVIOUS
00:59:34bluebrotherI changed apps/gui/gwps.c:646 to GO_TO_PREVIOUS_BROWSER and the problem is gone
00:59:50bluebrotherthe only drawback is that it doesn't go back to the main menu if that was the last selected

01:04:20bluebrotherah. Sounds reasonable

01:17:26LloreanI think that one is.

01:18:16LloreanI have no problem with bounties, I just don't think that request is one that's a bounty is going to have any noticeable effect on.
01:18:19XavierGrwow bounty for battery solution for ipods on dev ml!
01:18:39LloreanUsually a bounty is to get someone to work on something unpopular. I think we can all agree that the poor battery life is one of the two biggest things keeping the portalplayer targets from being "good"

01:20:27LloreanIt's not like it a bad thing, it's just kinda annoying in my opinion, because it sounds like he thinks there's not interest in it.
01:21:27bluebrothermaybe, but he might also just put out a reward because it bothers him too much
01:21:56ShaidI still have my old 4th gen ipod that I'm willing to sacrifice to someone who's up for doing nasty hardware dissasemblies on it

01:23:40LloreanI dunno, maybe I'm just frustrated because he doesn't seem to have any interest in what the problem actually is, he's just saying "Here's some money, I hope that makes it get done"

01:55:12***Alert Mode level 1
01:55:12m_The problem has been identified. It may be some time before a working version is in SVN, but for now, further discussion isn't needed, and if it becomes so, those who'll need it can reopen this thread or post in it while locked.
01:55:51Lloreanm_: Firstly, don't paste multi-line things in the IRC channel
01:56:16LloreanSecondly, what were you looking for? "It's not done yet" is the current status.
01:57:04lokasennaI can't get rockbox to load the original firmware using the |<< technique, I've installed the .rockbox folder into the root directory, placed the boot loader in the root directory, and placed the decrypted mi4 into the system folder, but when I try the |<< it just hangs there
01:57:21m_sorry about the multiline.
01:57:46linuxstbm_: No progress has been reported because there has been no progress.
01:58:03lokasennaI used the 1.02.15a.mi4 for the OF.bin, is that the correct mi4 file to use?
01:58:54m_Ok, thats just what I was wondering since the last post was on Feb. 2nd.
01:59:15Lloreanm_: Seriously, the very next step is "It's done". Do you think we're not going to announce when it's done?
01:59:58linuxstbLlorean: Maybe an update in that thread could be useful though - simply saying that nothing has changed in the last 7 weeks.
02:00
02:00:18Lloreanlinuxstb: I've updated the thread.
02:00:37Lloreanlinuxstb: It now says "If the status changes from 'It's being worked on, have patience' we'll post it here."

02:01:25m_ok, no problem. thanks for the clarificaiton. just wasn't sure if that thread had been abandoned or moved and I didn't notice.

02:02:17lokasennaUhm, help please?

02:06:47lokasennaYes
02:07:21lokasennaI'll try reuploading everything onto it
02:07:29LloreanDunno then, it always worked fine for me, though I don't remember which original firmware I decrypted.
02:11:47SoapSomeone please remind me to be plain, descriptive, explicit, and verbose when answering questions in the forums. "Are you using a stock build?" doesn't work. I need to remember to say "Are you using an official build downloaded from <link> and not one of the unsupported builds from the Unsupported Builds forum."
02:12:41LloreanSoap: I saw that one when you first used the word "Stock", I was hoping they wouldn't let me down by understanding it, and they didn't. :)
02:13:35SoapIt was my bad. It is just a "verbal" example of the assumptions I make in my mind.

04:11:06eatnumber1Llorean, I had a dropped connection for a minute or so... guess you responded then because I never got a response
04:13:02eatnumber1Llorean, so the second processor is already being used? What is it being used for? Also, what clock speed is it being run at... same as the other? Lastly, do you know that the docs still say that the second is not being used
04:13:43Lloreaneatnumber1: Yes it's being used, for the codec thread, and it's run at the same clock as the primary processor. There's still some issues keeping it from being effective in the manner we expect it should be though.

04:17:09LloreanDrumr: Yes. Why do you ask?
04:17:32Drumri DLed the current build and it was absent
04:17:45LloreanDrumr: Are you 100% sure it's absent, and not just somewhere different?
04:17:45JdGordonLlorean: have you got a microSD card?
04:17:46safetydanDrumr, the file has moved inside the .rockbox directory
04:17:49Drumrah
04:17:55LloreanJdGordon: Yes, in fact I have a couple. :)
04:17:56Drumr:-) that would explain it
04:18:19Drumri havet used rockbox for a while on my 5g... i decided to reformat and convert fully to file tree + rockbox :-D
04:18:43JdGordonLlorean: wanna try a very quick experiment to see if reading that card is a simple fix?
04:18:45Drumri see it now in the .rockbox directory
04:18:48LloreanJdGordon: Sure thing
04:19:20JdGordonok, gimme a few min, ill whip something up
04:19:24eatnumber1Llorean, ok, so one more question that I can possibly help with: I have a wall adapter to charge my ipod. But since it is not usb, the rockbox does not detect that it is plugged in, and so shuts off after the timeout period. Since it is plugged in however, it immediatley starts up. I have been thinking of just adding an option to disable the timeout period in the software, but it would be good to have a better solution

04:20:59Shaiddoesn't it boot into the usb charging mode on detection of a firewire charger?
04:21:00Lloreaneatnumber1: Rockbox can detect wall chargers, and does so (that's why it doesn't go into USB mode), but when it detects the wall-charger, it doesn't actually go into charging mode. I'm not sure where this is, but basically, the battery charges, but rockbox doesn't think "Hey, I'm charging", so all that needs to be fixed is to link those two things, I think.
04:21:28LloreanShaid: There is no "USB charging mode" to boot into...
04:21:54Shaideh, I guess not
04:21:57eatnumber1Llorean, wouldn't a charging mode just involve disabling the poweroff_timeout?
04:21:58ShaidI don't know what I'm thinking of.
04:22:46 Quit Arathis ("Bye, bye")
04:23:21Lloreaneatnumber1: No, it also causes Rockbox to behave differently depending on what you've got your LCD settings set at, and a few other things.
04:23:52Lloreaneatnumber1: Rockbox has a state for when the charger's connected, it's just that currently USB chargers don't activate it, I'm not wholly sure why.
04:24:18eatnumber1Llorean, do you know where the code is for this mode (or better yet, code that activates it)?
04:24:48LloreanNo clue.
04:25:01*eatnumber1 starts grepping code

04:28:34eatnumber1Does anyone know any specs on the battery is in the iPod nano?
04:28:38LloreanDrumr: The general opinion here is "Go with the official build"
04:29:07Drumr:-)
04:29:09Drumrfair enough
04:29:29JdGordonLlorean: of course... but what im guessing is that to access the mSD card we just need to select the correct bank..
04:29:38Drumrbut official == album art, scrolling margins, etc
04:29:57JdGordoni dont know how happy it would be fiddling with removng the 2nd bank.. thats where your hd is..
04:30:00JdGordonhp is
04:31:11Drumrok, another question (i appologize for being newbish)...
04:31:28Drumrhow do i determine bootloader version and whats the earliest COP compat loader?
04:31:40LloreanDrumr: The bootloader displays a version number while you boot.
04:32:02LloreanIf your bootloader doesn't display anything but the Apple logo until Rockbox starts, it's new enough. If your bootloader is white text on a black background, it's new enough.
04:32:35Drumrhmm, i use the IPL graphical loader so that changes things i guess
04:32:50Drumri could probably just nab a new loader.bin
04:33:01LloreanIf you weren't asking about the Rockbox bootloader, why'd you ask here?
04:33:43Drumrhmm, well, i figured the only difference was the graphical aspect of firmware selection, i wasnt aware the differences went deeper

08:44:15scorchethere should be!

08:56:21std|denisis there a way to compile only my plugin?
08:56:33std|deniswithout everything others
08:56:43B4gdernot really
08:56:44std|deniscall to "make" is way too long :)
08:56:49B4gdermake rocks builds the plugins only
08:57:10scorchestd|denis: you can compile the entire build once, and then when you build the next time, it will only compile what is changed, but otherwise, no
08:57:11B4gderand you can edit SOURCES to only include your plugin
08:57:11GodEaterB4gder: wouldn't changes to just one plugin after a full build, only rebuild that one .rock ?
08:57:20GodEaterscorche: you beat me to it
08:57:37B4gderto some people that isn't enough...
08:57:42std|denisscorche: sure, but it hangs for a long while at start of make process :(
08:57:45B4gder... those people run cygwin ;-)
08:57:58scorcheB4gder: or gentoo ;)
08:58:24B4gderto gentoo people, a 24 hour recompile is never wrong! ;-)
08:59:08scorchetoo easy to pick on those...
08:59:58scorcheLlorean: you could warn him that we dont approve of signatures in the message itself and to put "Please don't be angry" in his signature area =P

09:00:34Lloreanscorche: Hahaha
09:00:47*GodEater coughs. I can't remember the last time I waited 24 hours for a compile.
09:01:30scorcheGodEater: i didnt realize that gentoo was *that* slow...i thought 24 hours may have been overshooting the mark, but i guess i was wrong..
09:01:41GodEatertouche ;)
09:01:49DataGhostheh
09:01:54DataGhostmust be a slow pc too
09:02:08GodEaterin general it's about 10 minutes for most things I emerge
09:02:09DataGhostmy laptop can rebuild world including X(GL) and KDE under 15 hours
09:02:41B4gderonly a few years ago, I heard people do 72 hour compiles
09:02:45DataGhostoh and as long as I stay away from reiser4, I'll only have to do that once
09:03:03GodEaterB4gder: yep - I think back in the mists of time that's how long to took to do what DataGhost just described

09:56:06austriancoderHi all... i need to talk to you, its about googls summer of code.
09:56:15austriancoderAs you may know I want to work on an usb stack - a huge task, i know. But what do you think when i am doing the following steps for the project:
09:56:22 Join Ribs [0] (n=ribs@91.84.8.218)
09:56:26austriancoder* evaluate http://sourceforge.net/projects/lpcusb and http://porus.berlios.de to look which is better for the usage in RockBox
09:56:41austriancoder* Use the winner as basis for our usb stack
09:57:07austriancoder* Write an usb core driver for eSansa(portalplayers) - based on http://www.bitshrine.org/gpp/linux-2.6.16-mx31-usb-2.patch
09:58:36lachlanGo for it mate:)
10:00
10:03:56LinusNaustriancoder: i think you should first decide what you want to implement, usb host och usb device
10:04:24***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
10:05:20LinusNs/och/or/
10:05:56austriancoderLinusN: I think usb device should be a good start... so that we can copy files from pc/mac/.. to a sansa
10:06:07LinusNaustriancoder: i think so too
10:06:54LinusNbtw, i'm still curious about what happened on the AMS meeting
10:07:22austriancoderLinusN: i have started writting a summary, but... hmmm..
10:07:50austriancoderLinusN: will make some photos later the day and then i am reday
10:09:07LinusNnice!
10:11:01austriancoderLinusN: so is it okay to use maybe one of the previous two named usb stacks for my work?
10:11:49LinusNyou can use any code you like, provided that it is suitable, easily portable and has a compatible license
10:12:15austriancoderLinusN: fine :)

11:10:59bluebrothercrop: yes but it's more a hack than a real fix
11:11:14bluebrotheralso, it only solves the splash issue, not the stopping one
11:13:12bluebrothera possible hack around the problem is changing the GO_TO_PREVIOUS to GO_TO_PREVIOUS_BROWSER in gui_wps_show()
11:13:33bluebrotherbut that will then go always to the browser after playback is stopped / finished
11:13:39bluebrotherso it's not a proper fix
11:14:17cropbluebrother: yes. But still better that having to do a hard reset. I've installed it as a quick and dirty workaround until a better patch arrives.
11:14:51bluebrotherI still hope JdGordon can fix it shortly −− he knows the menu code best

12:41:26DataGhosta properly set-up makefile (with the right dependencies) makes sure nothing is built before its dependencies are done

12:45:21JdGordonhey linuxstb, still need sansapatcher tested or all good?
12:45:52linuxstbJdGordon: You tell me... Has barrywardell finished any bootloader changes he wants to make?
12:46:05JdGordondunno..
12:46:16barrywardelli haven't made any changes
12:46:17JdGordonI meant with using an old loader with it
12:46:25barrywardellsince linuxstb's last build
12:46:33linuxstbAh sorry, forgot about that change. Yes, that could be useful to check.
12:46:33 Quit MrAudio2 ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
12:46:53linuxstbMy zip file with the binaries is up-to-date with SVN.
12:47:06linuxstbhttp://www.davechapman.f2s.com/rockbox/sansapatcher.zip
12:47:26JdGordon:) doesnt install
12:47:26linuxstbbarrywardell: So are you happy with releasing the current bootloader?
12:47:41linuxstbSo that's a new bootloader installed without sansapatcher?
12:47:44barrywardellyes. the only two issues are:
12:47:49JdGordonlinuxstb: yep
12:47:56linuxstbJdGordon: Good, thanks.
12:48:04barrywardell1) The lcd_init() causes the lcd to flash blue for a split-second
12:48:17barrywardell2) JdGordon's usb stuff would be nice to have
12:48:24linuxstbWhat does it become after it flashes blue?
12:48:50linuxstbI mean couldn't you just change the background colour?
12:49:20barrywardelli did, the problem is in the lcd driver. even without doing an lcd_update() it updates the lcd when you do lcd_init()
12:49:37DataGhostyes! error!
12:49:41DataGhost'no space left on device'
12:49:41DataGhost:P
12:49:41JdGordonmaybe we just stick the rockbox logo there instead?
12:50:28barrywardellthe flash will always happen
12:50:36linuxstbSo what is displayed after the flash?
12:50:38barrywardellit even happens when booting rockbox
12:50:53barrywardelleg. after bootloader is done and rockbox starts loading
12:51:01barrywardellit flashes blue, then shows the rockbox logo
12:51:19DataGhostunable to reproduce with the various configuration options I used before, -j3 -j10 and even -j20
12:51:24linuxstbBut what do you mean "flashes" - that implies to me that it's something, then blue, then something else.
12:52:05barrywardellok, bad description. it changes to blue, then changes to whatever is to be displayed
12:52:24JdGordonstarts white, then changes to an off white-ish-blue here
12:52:31JdGordonnot rockbox blue tho...
12:53:40JdGordonLCD_REG_6 = (LCD_REG_6 & (0xffffff1f)) | (0x4 << 5); maybe? doesnt that restart dma?
12:53:45JdGordonhalf wa through init...
12:53:47JdGordonway*
12:54:28barrywardellit seems like something is restarting the dma anyway
12:54:40*JdGordon changing that last f to an e and tests
12:55:14JdGordonno change :(
12:55:49JdGordonunless there is more to the enabling dma than that 1 bit?
12:56:16barrywardelli'm not sure. dan_a is the expert...
12:56:37LinusNJdGordon: yes, exporting the bootloader version is a good idea
12:57:12JdGordonjust all these data aborts because ppl are not using the right bootloader is irritating me :p

13:00:12barrywardelllinuxstb: here's a video of the problem http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3fxzgunaT4
13:00:25barrywardellnot great quality but I think you get the idea from it
13:01:18ppeomum video quality very low...
13:02:39linuxstbbarrywardell: I can't view the video from here, but I think I understand. I assumed it was the Rockbox blue, and therefore was just thinking you could change it.
13:03:10barrywardellah, ok. it's something that won't be fixed until someone figures out the lcd driver a bit more
13:03:17JdGordonthe sansa doe use lcd-16bit.c right? im not changing the wrong file...?
13:03:25linuxstbbarrywardell: But anyway, I think I'm happy with sansapatcher, so as soon as you're happy with the bootloader (if not already), we can release it.
13:03:28barrywardelland it's not a critical problem
13:03:41barrywardellI'm happy with it now.
13:03:49linuxstbThen let's release...
13:03:58JdGordonwith usb..... :'(
13:04:05barrywardellmaybe we should make a "stable" release, then we can start adding usb and stuff?
13:04:19barrywardellor should we add usb for the first release?
13:04:51linuxstbIs the USB "mac-friendly", or can it still break the Mac OS X USB stack?
13:04:55JdGordonhehe, doesnt really matter... im using a custom loader anyay
13:05:54JdGordonwhat are the outl() and inl() functions?
13:06:39linuxstbOK, then can someone (LinusN, Bagder) unzip http://www.davechapman.f2s.com/rockbox/sansapatcher.zip into /bootloader/sandisk-sansa/e200/ on the download server? It might be useful to remname the existing PP5024.mi4 file to PP5024.2007-03-12 before.
13:07:14barrywardellI'll do some usb testing now...
13:07:48linuxstbWhat does Rockbox itself do on the Sansa when it detects a USB connection?
13:07:48JdGordonbarrywardell: well... for what its worth.. its not the LCD_REG_6 block in lcd_init_device().. comenting that out changes nothing...
13:08:06JdGordonlinuxstb: shows the usb screen, and maybe charges...
13:08:15linuxstbSo it doesn't reboot to the OF?
13:08:26JdGordonno
13:08:33barrywardellJdGordon: :(
13:08:42JdGordonsystem_reboot() isnt implemented i tihnk
13:09:01JdGordonI cant actually damage the lcd by commenting random code in the lcd init sequence can I ?
13:09:03linuxstbSo the system_reboot() that works on other PP targets doesn't work on the Sansa?
13:09:04barrywardelldoes the PP5020 version not work?
13:09:17LinusNlinuxstb: sansapatcher uploaded
13:09:36JdGordonit didnt work yesterday (?) when i tested that
13:09:46linuxstbIIUC, IRAM contents are preserved during a reset, so you could write some magic into IRAM for the bootloader to check, and if the bootloader sees that magic, make it start the OF.
13:09:53JdGordonits possible i stuffed up the #ifdefs for it tho
13:10:00linuxstbLinusN: Thanks.
13:10:16pondlifeI'm sure it's been discussed, but can't Rockbox (on iPod at least) check the bootloader version that was used, and refuse to continue if it's out of date..?
13:10:28pondlifeA magic number or something?
13:10:28linuxstbLinusN: Can you unzip that file? (and then delete it)
13:10:39LinusNaha, i didn't know you wanted that
13:10:45JdGordonpondlife: thats what id like to do, but atm the bootloader version isnt exported
13:10:49*LinusN can't read
13:11:07LinusNlinuxstb: done
13:11:18linuxstbLinusN: Thanks. :)
13:12:06linuxstbamiconn: Could you build an amd64 version of sansapatcher? You need to download http://download.rockbox.org/bootloader/sandisk-sansa/e200/PP5022.mi4 and put it in the rbutil/sansapatcher/ directory, then just type "make".
13:13:10desowinlinuxstb: you mean linux amd64 binary ?
13:13:13JdGordonbarrywardell: I was wrong.. commenintg that block out caused some wierd artefacs when booting OF!
13:14:08barrywardellJdGordon: toni1 was talking about some lcd findings here yesterday
13:14:44JdGordonwow, this is odd... the OF looks like it expects the lcd to be setup correclty already... playing with the init code causes rb to boot fine, but the OF to not display correcltty
13:14:52*JdGordon goes for the logs
13:15:29barrywardellJdGordon: your usb patch worked on my sansa and mac. maybe it's an intermittent problem (or maybe it's not a problem any more)
13:15:37*barrywardell tries again
13:15:38JdGordoncool :)
13:16:05JdGordonamiconn: I reckon I free'ed up enough space in that last commit to put the backlight setting back in :D
13:16:14linuxstbbarrywardell: I did have that problem on my Mac with the first version of the new usb detection code, but I later changed it slightly, and that fixed it.
13:16:29linuxstbdesowin: Yes. Could you do one?
13:16:36desowinyes
13:16:46amiconnJdGordon: This has nothing to do with freeing space or such. It simply sounds backwards to set a plugin option from the core

13:18:49barrywardellJdGordon, linuxstb: i can't reproduce the problem now. so maybe it's fixed...

13:19:31JdGordongreat :) (to both)
13:19:35pondlifeYup
13:19:43desowinlinuxstb: desowin.republika.pl/sansapatcher">http://desowin.republika.pl/sansapatcher <- there's binary, but there was that warning

13:20:24barrywardellJdGordon: ok, I guess there's nothing against the usb patch making it in now...
13:20:34amiconnAnd it's kinda difficult to debug b/c the sims have problems with non-ascii filenames
13:20:38JdGordonexceot it should reboot if it works...
13:20:48amiconnMaybe that's a windows/cygwin problem only...
13:20:49JdGordonreboot from rockbox i mean, like ipods

14:02:31amarI am interested in getting wma playback working but am not too sure where to start
14:02:41amarI have seen the patch in fly spray but was wondering if there was any usefull background reading
14:02:52 Part norbusan
14:03:08B4gderyou mean on codecs or on wma?

14:06:33preglowand with fixed point math?
14:06:41amarthe basics
14:06:47*amar is begining to think that he needs to find something else to do over summer
14:07:08preglowwell, it depends, a good understanding of dsp isn't strictly necessary
14:07:18JdGordoncan we swap threads on and off the COP like the cpu? and can threads be moved from 1 to the other?
14:07:22preglowyou'll need to know fixed point well
14:07:30preglowand you really don't need to know too much about wma either
14:07:48B4gderbut there is lots of existing code and concepts to learn from
14:07:57preglowdeed
14:07:57B4gderin regard to fixed point math I measn
14:07:58B4gdermean
14:08:00preglowyup
14:08:16preglowand plenty of people to ask
14:08:35preglowi'd say if you're interested, you should plain and simple just have a look at the code itself
14:08:59preglowand it might be wise to base that look on the ffmpeg wma code itself, and not the patch

14:38:06bluebrotheras you should end up where you've been before which is the file browser.
14:38:20linuxstbmarkun: Only very briefly. That would be nice in Rockbox as well...
14:38:30bluebrotherthat's the annoyance I ment earlier
14:38:48markunAre people still using realaudio these days?

14:57:09bluebrothernot exactly
14:57:17JdGordonwhy the heck is the IF_COP() #define the way it is and not #define IF_COP(a) a or <blank> ?
14:57:19bluebrotherhe didn't tell about the files itself, only about the tags
14:57:24leftrightyes i can but as i said, it happens occassionally
14:57:29bluebrotherI have a couple of audio files that don't end with silence
14:57:36bluebrotherwhich would cause exactly this issue
14:57:58leftrightso according to you its a file issue ?
14:58:00bluebrotherand you can confirm that the files that make trouble end with silence?
14:58:16leftrightthey dont always end with silence,
14:58:37leftrightthe ones with "less music at the end get chopped
14:58:44bluebrotherI for example have a few CDs with the tracks mixed into another
14:59:00bluebrotherand in some cases the track markers are set improperly, i.e. they are a bit off
14:59:18leftrightso its a tagging issue ?
14:59:25bluebrotherso some tracks have one or two seconds of the following track, or the last seconds are part of the next track
14:59:26leftrighti dont thinkl so
14:59:35bluebrotherand _that_ is a problem with the original CDs

15:00:20bluebrotherso my question in the comments was exactly about that: if you play _only_ the affected track, is it complete or not?

15:43:22leftrightpondlife: hmm, I always have large playlists, i.e about 150 tracks, and it doesn't happen at the beggining of the playlist
15:43:32pondlifeAre you able to compile your own builds?
15:43:57leftrightno sorry, I dont have that setup om my pc
15:44:05pondlifeOK, just an idea.
15:44:45pondlifeI'd make a guess that a quick edit to playback.h could make the bug rear its head much more often :)
15:44:53linuxstbleftright: What do you mean by "beginning" ? i.e. how many tracks?
15:45:02*B4gder gets to play with a microblaze cpy in his current project
15:45:19pondlifeSet MAX_TRACK to be 4, rather than 32 and you'll see the length go wrong regularly..
15:45:39pondlifeleftright: Do you have any "next track" info displayed on your WPS?
15:46:25markunlinuxstb: perhaps better to do the investigations ourselves and do GSoC suggestions for LLVM to have m68k and sh1 backends if we decide that it's useful for rockbox
15:46:51leftrightwell, linuxstb, I haven't keep a record of exactly "when and where" it has happened, but I'll try to reproduce and retain the playlist,
15:48:32leftrightI will compile playlist with several albums, then set it to shuffle, and every now and then , "oops where's the end of that song" ?.
15:48:34linuxstbmarkun: It's just that it sounds like quite an academic type of exercise, so could interest a computer science student...
15:49:01B4gderand we have no time for an initial investigation anyway before the 24th...
15:50:32markunI just think it would not be worth $4500 to just investigate if llvm is a option or not

17:26:28pondlifeTry the .rockbox directory.
17:26:38SEppl_?

17:28:53SEppl_in it there is .rockbox, calendars, notes , contacts ipod_control

17:33:11linuxstbAh, that's the problem then... What does .rockbox contain?
17:33:37linuxstbThere should be a set of sub-folders in there - wps, fonts, rocks, codecs etc, as well as a rockbox.ipod file.
17:33:54linuxstbAnd all those sub-folders should have various things inside.
17:34:15SEppl_there are subfolders
17:34:16SEppl_yea
17:34:23SEppl_but im missing a rockbox.ipod file

21:11:46webguest99if the batter capacity of the 5th gen 30 Gb iPod video says 400mAh but rockbox has it set to 1300mAh, wont this cause a problem?
21:13:02nlsnope
21:13:43nlsit's only used to display te estimated battery runtime left, which doesn't work too well on most targets anyway

21:31:58Mooswhile I can catch you, a litle question for you preglow...
21:32:11preglowgo ahead
21:34:09Mooslong time I don't use my iriver, but aren't the basses (in hardware that support iit natively) supposed to discrease when you volume up?
21:35:03Mooscause with the software tone controller, we have to manually discrease the volume or the basses for don't have cliping like mad
21:35:24preglowyou mean the bass setting is supposed to lower itself when you turn the volume too loud?
21:35:27preglowif so: no
21:35:31preglowclipping is allowed now

21:36:09Moosdon't remenber why with iriver, I thought that the basses discrease when you turn volume up
21:36:30SirFunkis tehre any reason rockbox on my iriver HP-20 takes forever to change directories (up to 10 seconds)
21:36:31preglowsoftware tone controls should behave exactly like the hardware one: if you have enough left on the volume setting, it should prescale so that the bass won't clip
21:36:40preglowbut if your volume is too loud for that, it'll just clip
21:36:59amiconnMoos: It has been that way in the beginning, but this behaviour was removed a long time ago...
21:37:12Moosah ok :((
21:37:20preglowi think it's :))
21:37:30MoosI missed the changes
21:37:35Mooshehe :)
21:37:37preglowthey happened a looong time ago
21:37:38amiconnA year or so
21:37:43preglowanyway
21:37:54preglowif you have -12 db volume, then you can boost bass 12 db before you get clipping
21:38:15preglowwell, it depends on max volume. if max volume is 6 dB, then you can get 18 dB bass boost before you get clipping
21:40:10Mooswhen I put my x5 on stereo equipement, for not clipping I have to lower a lot the basses for not kill my ears with cliping, generally need to put flat and add bosst on the stereo equipement

23:24:22n17ikh|LappyI just installed rockbox on my iriver H10, good stuff.
23:24:30preglowwe tend to agree
23:24:33countrymikequick question... if i want to upgrade rockbox can I just copy over/replace the rockbox.ipod file or do i need to copy over the entire .rockbox directory?
23:24:43preglowcountrymike: entire directory
23:24:58countrymikeso i need to backup any specific themes i have, etc...

23:25:13linuxstbpreglow: OK, I think I'm following. Thanks.
23:25:27preglowcountrymike: well, copying over the .rockbox dir doesn't erase the previous contents. it just updates what's there
23:25:44countrymikepreglow, ok, thanks.
23:25:46n17ikh|Lappyis there a way of making rockbox use UMS mode when connected via USB?
23:25:50n17ikh|Lappyrather than MTP
23:26:02preglowcountrymike: and we only bundle a couple of default themes, so any additional ones you have should be safe
23:26:19n17ikh|LappyI'm looking through the manual but I'm not seeing anything about it
23:26:25preglown17ikh|Lappy: isn't ums that all rockbox does?
23:26:25woodensoulHey guys, trying to get set up to build...
23:26:49countrymikepreglow, yep. ok. i'm also wondering how I find out what version a new build is.
23:26:53n17ikh|LappyI thought so, but apparently it's trying to be MTP
23:26:57n17ikh|Lappymy computer's asking for a driver
23:27:04preglown17ikh|Lappy: ok, no idea, then
23:27:27preglowcountrymike: what version a build you're running is?
23:27:40countrymikepreglow, no, i know what i'm running.
23:28:13woodensoulI'm at the step where you run the 'tools/configure' script and enter what target you want to build for...
23:28:16]RowaN[has the sansa patcher win .exe been updated with the latest bootloader commit that allows usb detection? (http://download.rockbox.org/bootloader/sandisk-sansa/e200/win32/sansapatcher.exe)
23:28:30countrymikepreglow, just not sure what i'm upgrading to, is actually an upgrade or not. but that's ok.
23:28:38countrymikei'm sure it is.
23:28:55preglowwell, unless you explicitely download an older build, you are indeed upgrading
23:28:59linuxstb]RowaN[: No, that bootloader isn't released yet.
23:29:04]RowaN[ok thnx
23:29:05countrymikepreglow, cool. thanks.
23:29:16n17ikh|Lappybah... why can't it be UMS :/
23:29:17woodensoulI don't know how to navigate to that directory from the rockbox/build directory i just created.
23:29:18preglowwhatever is on the current build page is the newest there is
23:29:45n17ikh|LappyI guess the actual device firmware is what makes it be MTP
23:29:48Bagdern17ikh|Lappy: I believe there is a "UMS trick" on the h10
23:29:49preglowwoodensoul: navigate there? just do ../tools/configure ?
23:29:52n17ikh|Lappyyeah, there is
23:30:04n17ikh|LappyI'd like to be able to set it up to always be UMS when on USB though
23:30:09Arathisn17ikh|Lappy: there is no rockbox usb support for the h10 atm
23:30:15n17ikh|Lappyah, alright
23:30:25n17ikh|Lappywell, holding select while booting works alright
23:30:39Arathisit's using th original bootloader before starting the rockbox bootloader
23:30:44n17ikh|Lappyyeah, I assumed so
23:30:55n17ikh|Lappyand the original firmware is what drives the UMS mode
23:31:05woodensoulI typed that and got an error.

23:31:58woodensoulWell I thought I did... it worked this time. Let's see how far I get now.
23:34:22n17ikh|Lappyam I right in assuming that wavpack will actually perform better than flac on most players?
23:34:28woodensoulOK, now I get an error that the compiler i must use (arm-elf-gcc) is not in my path. I remeber reading how to do that in the step where you install cygwin, but I didn't understand it.
23:35:16preglown17ikh|Lappy: no
23:35:21preglowflac performs the best
23:35:32preglown17ikh|Lappy: at least if you mean cpu usage
23:35:40n17ikh|LappyI thought wavpack had been designed from the ground up to do better on risc players
23:35:50preglown17ikh|Lappy: perhaps, but flac does better
23:35:58n17ikh|Lappyinteresting.
23:36:06preglowand by a fairly nice margin too
23:36:10preglowflac is one of our very fastest codecs
23:36:12preglowif not the fastest
23:37:24woodensoulI assume I need to do this step... Edit using nano or vi (not Notepad or Wordpad in Windows) /etc/profile and add ":/opt/sh/bin:/opt/m68k/bin:/opt/arm/bin"
23:38:03*nls makes a cynical post in the fourms before going to bed :-)
23:38:06thegeekmy experience is that flac is better than musepack, wavpack and monkey's audio
23:38:24saratogawoodensoul: yes you need to do that, or else you'll have to manually run the export command everytime you boot
23:38:30preglowthegeek: in what regard? you're comparing lossy and lossless codecs, there
23:38:31Lloreanthegeek: In what way? On a computer monkey's audio could be argued to be better because it gets better compression ratios.
23:38:53LloreanNot to mention the inclusion of musepack which is lossy, yeah. :)
23:39:05thegeekpreglow: I mean as lossless
23:39:15*amiconn thinks flac is our fastest codec for compressed formats
23:39:19woodensoulHow do I open and edit that file with nano or vi?
23:39:20thegeekoh
23:39:21thegeekheh;P
23:39:25amiconn(i.e. disregarding pcm wav and aiff)
23:39:31thegeekdisregad musepack;)
23:39:32preglowamiconn: i'm fairly certain of that myself
23:39:34thegeekdisregard*
23:39:38Lloreanthegeek: "as lossless" doesn't mean anything, you still need a basis of comparison.
23:40:05Lloreanamiconn: I remember hearing of a test where it didn't need to boost at 24mhz on H100, I thought.
23:40:11thegeekI'm not saying my opinion matters all that much, but my practical experience is that flac is better;P
23:40:30LloreanBetter doesn't _mean_ anything, without a "better in X manner"
23:40:36thegeekI'm getting to it;P
23:40:40n17ikh|Lappythank god for finally replacing my mp3 cd player.
23:40:56n17ikh|LappyI've moved into the DAP world at last :/
23:41:08preglowtomal's vorbis patches lower boost ratio 10% for a 145kbps vorbis file i have here
23:41:11preglowwe really should commit this stuf
23:41:16thegeekperhaps primarily because the few albums I had in wavpack were slow to seek
23:41:25thegeekand also a bit slow to "start" playback
23:41:41preglowendianness issue, hrm
23:42:07amiconnwavpack definitely needs more cpu power than flac. Far more on coldfire at least
23:42:31thegeekah
23:43:16n17ikh|Lappyportalplayer is an arm chip, right?
23:43:23n17ikh|Lappyer, two
23:43:38Bagderportalplayer is a company that makes chips
23:43:42n17ikh|Lappyyeah
23:43:52n17ikh|Lappythe portalplayer 5020, rather.
23:43:54Bagderbut the PP models in the players have two ARM cores
23:44:23n17ikh|Lappyk, just checking
23:44:42saratogabasically the 50xx chips are a pair of slowish arm cores coupled with a lot of troublesome other hardware
23:44:46 Quit woodensoul ("CGI:IRC (Ping timeout)")
23:44:54saratogaand a fair amount of embedded ram
23:45:09n17ikh|LappyI'm surprised something that slow can actually play lossless
23:45:29n17ikh|LappyI guess there's not much OS overhead
23:45:37amiconnLossless is easier to decode than lossy (well, at least that's true for flac and shorten)
23:45:45n17ikh|Lappyas opposed to say, windows mobile
23:45:53preglowshorten really doesn't do much
23:45:58preglowflac too is very easy to process
23:45:58 Nick sbeh is now known as gentoo (i=sbeh@serverstaff.de)
23:46:02preglowit does nearly nothing
23:46:06 Nick gentoo is now known as sbeh (i=sbeh@serverstaff.de)
23:46:21Bagdern17ikh|Lappy: its rather the opposite, windows ce is slow
23:46:31n17ikh|Lappythat's what I was implying
23:46:47n17ikh|Lappythere's not much OS overhead on the players because the OS is lightweight
23:46:53nlspreglow: I tested tomals patch on my h300 and all vorbis musci turned into horrible noise... the endianness issue was just a guess :-)
23:47:17n17ikh|Lappybut on CE, it seems like you can't hardly do anything
23:47:41n17ikh|LappyI haven't found a decent audio or video player yet for CE/ARM
23:48:05n17ikh|Lappydoesn't matter much though, I have rockbox now >_>
23:49:56preglownls: yeah, i'm testing now
23:50:05preglowand having a look to see if i can see a bug
23:50:33*Llorean wonders how battery life is on the iFP

23:53:14OLaSparOhello, I got a problem with my iPod with rockbox, I tried to change the language, but when I pushed my language it started showing "loading..." and it hasnt stopped doing that since, so what should I do? it seems freezed in this position, it doesnt react on any buttons
23:53:18caduCowon iAudio U2 + 80 USD

23:58:01n17ikh|Lappybecause it sort of feels that way
23:58:12linuxstbpreglow: Did you buy it before you discovered Rockbox?
23:58:32LloreanI bought my H120 semi-before I discovered Rockbox.
23:58:42LloreanI bought it before Rockbox was working on a port for it.
23:58:51LloreanBut I mistakenly thought they were.
23:58:58Arathisn17ikh|Lappy: yes, atm. there are some complications finding and handling the right events to make it a real touchstrip
