00:00:13kyuubisealmy Sandisk is e250

00:00:21 Quit bdgraue (Remote closed the connection)
00:00:33linuxstb_Yes, it is. Assuming it's not an "R" model.
00:00:43kyuubisealit is sapported
00:00:55Bagderrasher: nice, I'll try it tomorrow
00:01:10kyuubisealwhat are the side effect's of rockbox?
00:01:28kyuubisealwhere do i go to download
00:01:32bluebrotherit works differently
00:01:33Chewie[]http://rockbox.org/
00:01:38linuxstb_None - you can always start the original firmware (Rockbox can dual-boot on the Sansa)
00:01:48kyuubisealrealeases, currentbuild,extra's
00:01:51Chewie[]i just got an e250 on saturday and had rockbox on it within a few hours.. works great.

00:02:15Chewie[]kyuubiseal: have you tried the default firmware yet?
00:02:30kyuubisealnope
00:02:35linuxstb_larsemil: You're saying that when playing the same file in Rockbox and the Apple firmware, Rockbox sounds worse?
00:02:42Chewie[]it feels flimsey compared to rockbox.. you don't really get a good volume or battery readout in the official firmware.
00:02:55larsemillinuxstb_: yes
00:02:58*amiconn wonders how 'blurry' sound is defined
00:03:07Chewie[]amiconn: sound is subjective anyhow,
00:03:25Chewie[]somebody look at flyspray and commit my lame patch. ;-P
00:03:35linuxstb_larsemil: Do you have any sound settings enabled in the Apple firmware? (and any in Rockbox)?
00:03:45kyuubisealanyone have a sandisk e250 2GB

00:04:26Chewie[]kyuubiseal: using it right now.
00:04:33Chewie[]works wondefully.
00:04:44Chewie[]goes much louder and much softer than the default firmware too.
00:05:20rasherNote to pondlife: Check FS #7646 if you'd be so kind as to re-implement SAPI5 building with this new approach.

00:20:43oboooo, nice :)
00:20:54pixelmaI'll take a look
00:21:23kyuubisealHELP
00:21:31bluebrother(it's set in mkspecs/qconfig.prj)
00:21:39kyuubisealok i installed it and it worked but.......
00:21:48kyuubiseali can't listen to my music
00:22:30obothanks pixelma
00:22:45kyuubisealhelp please
00:23:00Chewie[]turn the volume up?
00:23:06bluebrotherdid you put any music on the player? How did you do?
00:23:18pixelmaobo: I'm a bit short of attention atm, do I need all 3?
00:23:19Chewie[]hmm, i presume too much.
00:23:40kyuubiseali put music on it when it was in the orginal software
00:23:43obopixelma: yup, all 3
00:23:46Chewie[]kyuubiseal: go into the official firmware (left button when you turn it on) to add music, then in rockbox, update the database.
00:24:05kyuubisealhow do i do that
00:24:18kyuubisealmy computer doesn't recognise it any more
00:24:28Chewie[]settings -> general -> database -> update now
00:24:37Chewie[]you need to use the official firmware to connect it to the computer.
00:24:53Chewie[]rockbox doesn't support much as far as the sansa and USB right now.
00:25:12 Join amiconn [0] (n=jens@p54BD4E32.dip.t-dialin.net)

00:27:50amiconnGetting used to them takes a while though
00:27:53Bagderkk: sure, just don't run the OF ;-)
00:27:57linuxstb_kk: Unhide it?
00:27:59peturamiconn: some mapping like in the recscreen is not nice, and the general layout on the device is just crap
00:28:00kyuubisealneed help
00:28:08advcomp2019while you turn it on, hold the left arrow
00:28:10kyuubisealuninstalling rockbox
00:28:29jhMikeSespecially when they stand in the way of so much improvement
00:28:33Aloneahmmm...ok, so GBSYSTEM is a hidden folder, but even with hidden folders turned on, I still can't see it. but if I type in the address to it, I can access it.
00:28:39kyuubisealytk
00:28:40linuxstb_kyuubiseal: That was a quick rejection...
00:28:41pixelmaobo: building (will take a while because of cygwin) - only thing I noticed is that the patch has the wrong lf
00:28:41kyuubisealtok
00:28:45Bagderkyuubiseal: if you don't read what we say and don't follow our advice, then what can we do for you?
00:28:46kklinuxstb_, it seems to rehide it
00:28:58kyuubisealtmy songs are still here
00:28:59linuxstb_kk: Then I refer you to Bagder's solution...
00:29:00amiconnpetur: Yeah, the layout is somewhat unusual. But the buttons provide better control than the H1x0 joystick
00:29:16kyuubisealk got it back
00:29:18Bagderkk: or really, don't put your music in the music directory
00:29:23amiconn...even with that odd scrollpad
00:29:30peturmapping menu on the power button troubles me a bit
00:29:34linuxstb_Alonea: The GBSYSTEM folder is both "hidden" and "system"
00:29:36kkyeah, that was my thought, really.
00:29:37obopixelma: yup, the whitespace is out in a few places as well - apart from that they look okay to me, but obviously I can't test them myself :(
00:29:45Aloneahave system turned on too...
00:29:49*jhMikeS won't even say what the scrollpad reminds him of ;)
00:29:55kyuubisealso the songs are in original filmware but how do i get to rockbox filmware
00:29:58AloneaI just turned it on...lemme check again.
00:30:06kyuubiseali just got the sandisk yesterday
00:30:07peturamiconn: is the scrollpad better with my change of yesterday?
00:30:08amiconnI can't comment on the recording screen. Never tried recording as I'm not much interested in it and I know it's broken on PP
00:30:19amiconnpetur: I can't feel any difference
00:30:30peturno?
00:30:31Aloneamain thing is, I cannot seem to start rockbox. first I was getting an error with some zeros and 98. now it seems stuck on the load screen
00:30:32amiconnMainly the pad just works as 2 buttons
00:30:42amiconnIt did before, and it does now
00:31:04peturyes, that wasn't changed, but the readings are much more stable
00:31:06kyuubisealhow do i use themes on rockbox and play games on rockbox
00:31:06Alonealike its in a loop cause I hear the hard drive spin and the side lighst blink
00:31:30amiconnpetur: Readings aren't stable now, and weren't before. But that has no influence on usability
00:31:31Bagderkyuubiseal: now stop asking questions here for 30 minutes and read all this in the manual
00:31:42amiconnIt worked before as two buttons, and it does now. Reliably.
00:33:03amiconnIf you put the fiinger in the centre, it toggles between up and down, exactly the same as before
00:33:06peturamiconn: not stable in the sense of keeping the same value, but staying in the same range. Before my change, the value could really swing a big range, even causing UP detected when touching down. At least on my unit
00:33:27amiconnNever had that on mine...
00:33:33linuxstb_Alonea: What is "in a loop" ? Is the Rockbox bootloader running?
00:33:50 Quit Bjerrk ("Dead Men Tell No Tales")
00:33:55Alonealinuxstb, remember that bootsplash.raw picture? Its stuck on that.
00:34:31linuxstb_I thought that was removed from the current GB bootloader?
00:34:38Aloneait flashes the yellow page with the version number at the bottom, then goes to that screen.
00:34:52Aloneai dunno. has it? I still have the file in there.
00:35:10linuxstb_Do you have the latest bootloader? That should be on download.rockbox.org
00:35:43linuxstb_http://download.rockbox.org/bootloader/gigabeat/FWIMG01.DAT
00:35:52Aloneayeah, I thought that was the problem. I got the new bootloader and thats when it stops at that screen. Before I got a 00000 (dont remember number of zeroes)98
00:36:00 Quit petur ("Zzzzzz")
00:36:20pixelmaobo: putting the new build on - all I have to do is enabling lastfm-log, reboot and, some music and watch the scrobbler.log? Anything particular I should keep an eye on?
00:37:08rasherhttp://www.ipodwizard.net/ interesting poll..
00:38:04Aloneayeah. its still doing it. Lemme try loading original firmware, then reputting rockbox on from the beginning.
00:38:42linuxstb_rasher: Where's the poll?
00:39:01advcomp2019on the side
00:39:05jhMikeSamiconn: which H10 model do you have?

00:39:28pixelmalinuxstb: I think he means the small box somewhere in the middle of the left side (took me a while to find it too)
00:39:37*linuxstb_ finds http://www.ipodwizard.net/poll.php?do=showresults&pollid=404
00:40:03pixelmamuch better
00:40:10 Quit krazykit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
00:40:11obopixelma: the .scrobbler.log may not be created straight away, it's cached, but should be flushed at shutdown or on USB connections. Could you check tracks appear in the log as expected (skipped tracks appear as 'S' etc)
00:40:16*jhMikeS just did something that massively speeds up video on e200
00:40:22Bagderhere's a nice quote from there => "i think rockbox is crap cuse you can't do what you want with it after you change a theme that's it you can't make anything else for it. it's stupid that the RB team has made it so you can't create anything for it."
00:40:32jhMikeSholy crap
00:41:00thegeekthis is torture jhMikeS
00:41:03BagderI get the feeling not everyone understands us ;-)
00:41:22linuxstb_Bagder: Reading those threads isn't recommended...
00:41:27Bagderhehe
00:41:38Bagdermost people actually say rockbox is better/nicer/cooler than ipl
00:41:48linuxstb_" everythink you can do with rockbox you can do with "...
00:41:55rasher"rockbox is great. but cant figure out themes, or how to play music with it"
00:41:56rasherWHAT
00:42:07linuxstb_"linux" was supposed to be at the end of my quote...
00:42:41pixelmaobo: might get interesting that I'm testing on an Ondio - because unlike the recorders it has no rtc
00:42:44FebsDamn, rasher, I was just about to post that!
00:43:47linuxstb_rasher: Well, if you're not aware that itunes is hiding your files in the iPod_Control folder, then Rockbox could be confusing...
00:43:51obopixelma: you should get a .scrobbler-timeless.log instead, and the last value per entry will always be 0
00:43:59rasherhttp://www.ipodwizard.net/showpost.php?p=303771&postcount=13 I'm not even going to quote that in here.

00:46:09amiconnlinuxstb: First thing that proves the statement wrong: Can you play mp3 music with ipl on G1..G3 without skipping? I'm sure you can't
00:46:17fxbthey always think "sleeping forever" is an error message...
00:47:14linuxstb_amiconn: You don't need to convince me... ;)

01:04:00pixelmaobo: sorry, seems I tested with the wrong version, started again...
01:04:19amiconnWell, iram is for performance. We should probably need to find out what's accessed most
01:05:28cujo8400anyone?
01:05:51obothanks pixelma - you can cheat by seeking to over half way through a track if you want ;)
01:06:00linuxstb_barrywardell: OK. That shouldn't be too much work, I can't recall much changing with sansapatcher.
01:06:11amiconnPutting code in iram makes quite a difference on SH, both because it's 32 bit (hence every other instruction fetch doesn't interfere with memory access), and because it enables efficient use of fast page mode (when running from dram, reading instructions and data alternatively cause a page miss everytime)
01:06:22jhMikeSthe running and sleeping lists by far but that implies the prev and next pointers too
01:06:25linuxstb_barrywardell: Although it could be the time to add 0xc to the supported partition types for the FAT partition....
01:06:53amiconnlinuxstb: ?
01:07:13amiconnRockbox ignores the partition type (well, it checks for != 0x05)
01:07:21barrywardelllinuxstb_: yes, should be just a matter of building the binaries
01:07:32rashercujo8400: Sounds strange, I don't really have any ideas, though I seem to recall other people having similar issues.
01:07:34barrywardellthe svn bootloader seems to be still working fine
01:07:53amiconnjhMikeS: A full memory access (opening a new page) costs 2 extra wait states compared to an access to an open page
01:08:15linuxstb_amiconn: sansapatcher checks the partition type.... The SVN version only checks for 0xb, but I think some people have reported having a FAT partition of type 0xc.
01:08:23amiconnah
01:08:33Aloneai also would like to ask if there is any way to have multiple "bookmarks" for text files?
01:08:51barrywardelllinuxstb_: has anybody tested sansapatcher with a 0xc partition?
01:08:53cujo8400rasher: yeah, I haven't found much help for it around the internet ot in forums...I figured I should try asking around here because I really like rockbox
01:09:17linuxstb_barrywardell: No... But it was a change I made recently to ipodpatcher. Not sure it's in the released version of that though.
01:09:32linuxstb_It should be harmless.

05:40:35TerrorByteYou still here?
05:40:43TerrorByteStill here?
05:40:52rudmanyes
05:41:05TerrorByteAbout that backdrop thing.
05:41:22TerrorByteYeah you're right that it doesn't change the backdrop. It doesn't on my iRiver H10.
05:41:30TerrorByteBut it's not that much of a concern.
05:41:34krazykitit doesn't on any targets
05:41:43TerrorByte???
05:41:53krazykiti'd venture to say it's supposed to be like that. you can set a backdrop independant of a theme
05:42:00TerrorByteYES
05:42:02TerrorByteThat's what I do now.
05:42:17TerrorByteI converted all my wallpapers to my iRiver's resolution.
05:42:24krazykitwell, WPS, rather.
05:42:27TerrorByteAnd then I made config files for each of them.
05:42:29rudmanwhat happens is that you load a theme with a black backdrop and the next theme has a black font and you're fucked
05:42:37TerrorByteAnd I put them all in a folder.
05:42:46TerrorByteAnd now I just select the 'wallpaper' and the backdrop changes.
05:42:51TerrorByteI have over a hundred.
05:42:53 Quit parafin (Read error: 60 (Operation timed out))
05:43:11krazykitif you load a WPS without a backdrop, you don't want it to clobber the backdrop you've previously set
05:43:22rudmanthe default for all themes should have the null backdrop: line so if you change your theme - you can always then select your own backdrop
05:43:25TerrorByterudman: If you highlight an option it inverts color... If you have it set to that.. Then you're not fucked.
05:43:40TerrorByteI always select my own backdrop from the hundred or so that I have.
05:43:47TerrorByteJust make config files for them and place them in a folder.
05:43:50TerrorByteAnd select them from there.
05:43:57TerrorByteAnyways, I have to go.

06:22:30rudmanllorean: did you see my comments earlier about backdrop issues?
06:23:24Lloreanrudman: Simple solution: If your theme is not supposed to have a backdrop, put a backdrop: NULL in it. If you don't put a backdrop line in your theme, then it's assumed that the theme is not supposed to change the backdrop. Because NO .cfg changes any setting unless it includes a line for it.
06:24:46rudmanllorean: my thoughts exactly. I was suggesting that that be added to the guidelines
06:25:05LloreanWhat if the theme is supposed to be independent of the background?

06:26:02LloreanSome themes don't set a backdrop, and intentionally don't care so that you can mix them with one of several backdrops
06:26:27rudmanno matter what, it will get tripped up by a background. light backdrop and light font....bad. same thing with dark
06:26:54LloreanNo matter what, it'll get tripped up if a user changes to a theme they don't know the font color of, yes.
06:27:03rudmansince you can always re-select your backdrop after you selected a theme, it would be better to null it out
06:27:04LloreanSo don't load a theme if it conflicts with your current backdrop, and it doesn't change one.
06:27:24LloreanYou can also always load the wrong backdrop, and have it conflict with the font color too.
06:27:30LloreanOr set a font color by accident that conflicts with the backdrop.

06:27:39LloreanOr load a theme that doesn't set the font color, but does set the backdrop
06:27:44LloreanThere's a ridiculous number of possibilities.
06:27:47rudmanthis is the kind of thing that trips up noobs
06:28:15rudmanof course there are many ways to screw yourself up but you have to put yourself in the shoes of a noob.
06:28:31LloreanThere's two different ways to clear your settings if you screw them up.

06:31:03LloreanOut of curiosity, am I supposed to mind terribly if someone deletes Rockbox because they didn't pay attention to what theme they downloaded? The guidelines for the new theme page will require authors to include a backdrop: NULL statement if it's suppose to not have one, but there's no reason to do anything beyond asking the authors to do it.
06:32:05rudmando the guidelines already suggest that?
06:32:38LloreanI said for the new theme site.
06:32:43LloreanThere's no way to enforce it on the wiki.
06:32:53*scorche perks up
06:34:10rudmanAs long as there is a requirement for authors to do so that's fine. I didn't see anything in the existing pages and was simply suggesting that be added
06:34:30scorchewell, the existing pages wont be used...
06:35:05rudmanI'm new to rockbox and got burned by that on a number of the themes I've installed
06:35:29scorchei would hardly call it being burned...
06:35:44MonkeyTamerhow about "scorche"d?
06:36:52Lloreanrudman: Seriously, adding it to the guidelines without a way of enforcing it would do nothing
06:37:01LloreanI guarantee you the authors know that themes don't reset the backdrop unless told to.
06:37:15rudmanwell, burned in the sense of I had an "Oh fuck!" moment and then I had to mount it in order to delete the line in the cfg file
06:38:07scorcheyou can always reset the settings
06:38:10rudmanAdding it to the guidelines would let authors of themes what to do to play nice. If you were not aware of the consequences of not adding a blank backdrop: line in your cfg, you wouldn't do it
06:38:15Lloreanrudman: As it is, it's a wiki page, you're more than capable of updating any existing posted guidelines.
06:39:09rudmantrue. I just joined the site, now I have to find out who to contact to get write access
06:39:12LloreanI'd bet a full 2/3 of them know that backdrops don't get cleared unless you add a line to clear them, but it's just not very important to them.
06:39:23scorcheit says who to contact ont he page
06:39:46rudmanyes, yes, I'm sure it does, but like I said I just joined (like 20 minutes ago!)
06:40:19rudmanit should be important to them, it would make their themes more usable
06:41:06LloreanWell, tell them that, then.
06:41:18LloreanHalf the time they don't even change the font color, assuming it will be black.
06:41:40rudmanI did see that recommendation in the wiki....
06:41:54LloreanOf course, on that basis, many themes don't care about the font color or the background color because they intentionally don't care, being only a text-based WPS
06:42:42Lloreanrudman: Just because a recommendation is there doesn't mean *anyone* will ever see it.
06:43:28Lloreanrudman: As I said, guidelines mean nothing at all without an effective means to enforce them. You seem to think it's common that people get stuck with a black-on-black situation (since you've done it multiple times) yet at the same time assume theme authors wouldn't know that it's a bad idea.

09:01:32*GodEater hasn't noticed the video's disk mode is particularly slow at all
09:01:37LloreanNow, minus the fonts, and in linux, it's a lot faster.
09:01:46LloreanGodEater: Oddly enough, it doesn't happen to everyone

09:41:02ieHello. Do I understand it correctly that sansa's original FW only sees the music stored in the dir MUSIC (and its subdirs) but RB sees everything, i.e. also the files stored directly in the root folder
09:41:36aliaskRockbox views all files/folders on the disk
09:41:46aliaskNot sure about the OF
09:42:40iealiask: the manual says music should be stored somewhere under MUSIC
09:43:25aliaskie: That might be to facilitate using both firmwares
09:43:26Lloreanie: Not the Rockbox manual.
09:44:34ieLlorean: yes, the sansa manual. So if I want to see the same music with both FWs, I should store it in MUSIC, right?
09:45:04Lloreanie: I don't know about the official firmware. This isn't really the right place to ask for how to use the original firmware.
09:48:21ieLlorean: ok. Another question: I'd expect (under RB) that the context menu is called with the long press of the center button. Like in e.h. H120. The key mapping doesn't seem to be consistent across platforms at this point.
09:48:24PaulJamhi, does someone know where the fm radio stored its settings (like for example preset mode/scan mode) ?
09:48:57iePaulJam: nvram? (not sure)
09:49:19PaulJamwhy not the settings.cfg?

09:49:59JdGordonshhuold be in config.cfg with the rest pf settings...
09:50:11GodEaterLlorean: why's that ?
09:50:35ieLlorean: could you tell the FS number?
09:50:52aliaskGodEater: Rockbox consistency vs what is written on the keys
09:51:06LloreanGodEater: Yeah, basically the "Power" button has the word Menu written just above it.
09:51:31GodEaterLlorean: but we ignore that on the ipod too
09:51:51LloreanGodEater: Personally, I think my patch makes it a little more usable. Actually, on the iPod, we coincide with all the labels, I think
09:52:05GodEaternot for context menu

09:52:20Lloreanie: I don't know the number any more
09:52:21GodEaterit's long push on centre button
09:52:30LloreanGodEater: Yes, but I had to move both context and main menu
09:52:46GodEateryou *had* to ?
09:52:47LloreanIf I moved the context to long-center, it leaves the "Playlist" button (it's a picture, could be interpreted as a menu, or context menu) functionless.
09:52:59LloreanSo I didn't *have* to, but I felt uncomfortable leaving a button entirely unused
09:53:09LloreanEspecially one that feels *so* much to me like it'd be perfect for the normal menu function.
09:53:17GodEaterI thought we had other targets with buttons unused too ?
09:53:18ieLlorean: But the other button has a picture of a menu on it!
09:53:24LloreanGodEater: Just "Record"
09:53:35Lloreanie: Yes, but it doesn't *say* menu.
09:53:43LloreanPlus, you're arguing my point, argue with the people on the other side
09:54:11GodEaterLlorean needs no help arguing ;)
09:54:39LloreanI *like* my patch.
09:54:45ieLlorean: I'm not argueing
09:54:48LloreanIt feels more comfortable to me. :)

10:04:42ddaltonis that how you want the time voiced?

10:06:57ddaltonLinusN aren't you? You sound like you are. Anyway I don't know how you would say 8 a m.
10:07:19ddaltonI would think it would be 8 hundred hours.

10:28:17LinusNi'll do it
10:28:22ddaltonwhen?
10:28:27LinusNsoon :-)
10:28:27ddaltonis the coding ok?

10:28:37ddaltonis the coding ok?
10:28:57LinusNi'll simplify it a little before committing, nothing fancy
10:29:30ddaltonok what can be simplified?
10:29:53LinusNbasically remove the call to talk_number(tm->tm_min, true) in both branches of the if(tm->tm_min < 10)
10:30:24ddaltonok I see what your saying.
10:35:50*linuxstb wouldn't say "9 o'clock am" - just "9 o'clock" or "9am"

10:37:49LinusNlinuxstb: i think i agree there
10:38:41LinusNbut 9 o'clock is rather ambiguous, isn't it?
10:39:04LinusN9am sounds better
10:39:10B4gderwell, spoken time frequently is ambiguous
10:39:15LinusNof course

10:50:22ddaltonLinusN yes I do. Why?
10:50:43LinusNjust wonder how it speaks the time
10:51:00LinusNdoes it say "9 o'clock am"?
10:51:02ddalton"7 47 pm"
10:51:21Mikachuwill this talking clock support 24-hour time too?
10:51:23ddalton"9 o'clock a m"
10:51:33LinusNMikachu: yes
10:51:49LinusNddalton: ok, just checking
10:52:41ddaltonI think the oh part is needed because that is how the watch says the time but it doesn't speak in 24 hour format.
10:52:50basculeAnyone aware that the forums are currently unavailable (HTTP 500 - internal server error)?
10:53:04basculefor me in the UK at least
10:53:05ddaltonpersonally I would say "4 hundred hours"
10:53:08LinusNi wonder if o'clock is acceptable in 24-hour mode instead of "hundred hours"
10:53:18ddaltonand maybe "9 hundred hours"
10:53:25ddaltonor 9 o'clock
10:53:29LinusNbascule: the server is b0rked
10:53:30ddaltonwhat is better?
10:53:33Mikachunobody says "hundred" in 24-hour mode countries, only the military in the us do that
10:53:42ddaltonor 09 hundred isn't it?
10:53:44LinusNMikachu: i believe so too
10:53:45basculeLinusN:OK
10:54:34linuxstbMikachu: How would you say 9am in the 24-hour clock?
10:54:41ddaltonok so your saying p7641 is not right? you just want me to fix the oh part and that is it?
10:54:45LinusNso would it be ok if i simplified it a little, and have it say "o'clock" in both 12-hour and 24-hour mode?

10:55:49preglowagreed
10:56:20pixelmaI don't know - if I hear "nine hundred hours", I always think of 900 as the number - but then I'm not a native speaker...
10:56:46ddaltonlook it is just meant to tell us the time. As long as we can tell what the time is it is fine.
10:56:50bluebrother900 hours is quite a long time ;-)
10:56:51basculethat's because it should be oh-nine hundred hours
10:56:57LinusNddalton: i agree with you
10:57:05amiconnddalton: Well, we had a talking clock (english only) which says o'clock in 24 hour mode. And according to wikipedia it is a correct way
10:57:06ddaltonnoone here says 22 o'clock. but it doesn't mean your wrong.
10:57:30basculepersonally, I would disagree with Wikipedia on that one
10:57:38linuxstbamiconn: And wikipedia is never wrong?
10:57:41bascule22 o'clock is never correct in britain
10:57:49LinusNwow, can you say "bikeshed" :-)
10:57:50linuxstbbascule: Agreed
10:57:59ddaltonAs I said before amiconn it is fine with me. what about 9 hours. and 22 hours. and for say 3 30 pm 15 30?

10:58:53ddaltonmaybe!
10:59:06basculeif it's a 24-hr clock, it should always be oh-nine hundered, twenty-two hundres and
10:59:21ddaltonI think 22 hundred hours would be fine. But what do you guys think?
10:59:23basculeoh-nine-thirty, twenty-two-thirty
10:59:40linuxstbbascule: If you're saying to drop "hours", then I agree with you.
10:59:41Mikachuwhy not just say "twenty-two"?
10:59:42B4gderhundred sounds like the millitary way, not a way 24 hour users actually say
10:59:48LinusNhow about "22 sharp"?
10:59:54basculeyes, drop the 'hours'
11:00
11:00:07markunand add "sir!"

11:00:48GodEateris bascule missing his fix of requests from silly users ? :)
11:00:50ddaltonwell 22 sounds fine to me.
11:00:52linuxstbpixelma: I agree, it's not logical, but I can't think of any (sensible) alternative...
11:00:59basculeno, i'm bored
11:01:07ddaltonI would be using the 12 hour format anyway. that is why I implemented it.
11:01:31linuxstbLinusN: Just make a dictatorial decision and commit something ;)
11:01:37LinusNok, so we want to pronounce the leading zero for the hours as well?
11:01:38basculeif it's 12-hour format, it kindof has to include o'clock

11:38:44ddaltonI would really like to be able to read text files on my player
11:38:59ddaltonanyway this is a chalenge for me I think.

11:41:01markunddalton: for me too, but if we invest enough time I'm sure we can do it
11:41:35ddaltonLinusN: some of these patches I don't even know what they do. So what should I write for them in the tracker. But he says for some to work you need others.
11:42:16ddaltonyes I will. So will people be able to help me out with code?
11:42:28ddaltonlike with the normal patches?
11:42:49LinusNddalton: just put them in the tracker and explain exactly that
11:43:27ddaltonok then
11:44:07ddaltonalso they are his patches so is it ok for me to upload them. Should I say they are by him?
11:44:58ddaltonwhat is the command to compare two dirs. and make a diff. So to go through every sub dir?
11:45:11ddaltonI know it is on the wiki but could someone tell me?
11:46:40ddaltonOk I will look it up.

11:52:10LinusNno time right now, maybe later
11:53:58ddaltonok
11:55:41ddaltonLinusN: How do these patches sound? Say id3 info, voice more info under the info screen, voice fm radio more, playlist catolog voicing and that is all I will probably be able to do to night.
11:55:49ddaltono and the book marks screen.
11:56:29ddaltonhas anyone here got time to test a patch?

11:57:22ddaltonit will be 6138 I just need to post my update.
11:57:44GodEaterok - just let me know when you're done
11:57:51ddaltonok
11:59:19GodEaterhmm - if I'm going to be testing voice, I'd best make sure my voice file is right
11:59:22ddaltonactually it will be a different one I told you the wrong patch sorry.
11:59:24GodEatercurrently it's all over the place!
11:59:35ddaltonwell it edits english.lang.

12:00:13GodEaterI just want to test how it works *now*
12:00:20GodEaterand then how it works after your patch

13:06:45ddaltonof svn
13:06:48ddaltonthe source
13:07:10GodEaterthat builds fine too
13:07:14GodEatererm
13:07:15GodEaternot sure
13:07:21GodEaterI don't use svn directly anymore
13:07:21obosvn info?
13:07:23Mikachusvn info|grep Revision
13:07:27ddaltonok and is that on latest svn?
13:07:40GodEaterddalton: yes, that was on the latest svn rev
13:08:42ddaltonso r14437? Because I thought the time patch that just got committed might mess it up.
13:08:53GodEater14437 correct
13:08:59GodEaterthe time patch seems to work with it fine
13:09:06LinusNddalton: is there a reason that stephane sent you the patches instead of updating them in the tracker?
13:09:25ddaltonok good. Do you have any more time I just have one more patch.
13:09:30GodEatersure
13:09:55ddaltonok if you can try p6239 that would be great. I think a few of these patches use it.
13:10:08GodEaterso you need me to apply the other two again first ?
13:10:11ddaltonIf it compiles then it is fine.
13:10:39GodEaterso apply it on it's own first ?
13:11:01ddaltonyep because I don't have any patches submited that use that one yet.

13:18:51LloreanDoesn't 6239 admit that it probably isn't a proper solution to the problem?
13:19:08ddaltonwell I can't even work out what it is for.
13:21:02LloreanIt looks like it's an attempt to fix a problem that doesn't happen yet, but might happen if other new code were added.
13:21:45ddaltonwell I think a couple of patches might use it. I am updating them all and then I will test what patches need other patches and then I will submit them.
13:21:55ddaltonBut the are really nice patches.
13:23:53GodEateranyone else seen this : http://www.reghardware.co.uk/2007/08/23/apple_readies_osx_ipods/ ?
13:24:01ddaltonGodEater: does p6138 remove the new time voicing which was added? Because it isn't meant to.
13:24:27LinusNddalton: is there a reason that stephane sent you the patches instead of updating them in the tracker?
13:24:29GodEaterddalton: how would it do that, other than explicitly
13:25:37ddaltonLinusN: he sent them to me because I asked him for them. I think they needed updating and he hadn't got around to submitting.
13:25:42ddaltonthem
13:25:45LloreanGodEater: I'm not sure why they'd do that, it seems like it'd introduce a lot of unnecessary overhead.
13:26:07GodEaterLlorean: one of the guys in the ipodlinux channel thinks they've already done it with the Nano 2G
13:26:22GodEaterthough he presented no evidence to this other than "nudge nudge, I know people, wink"
13:26:26LloreanI call shenanigans on that.
13:26:39ddaltonActually i don't think it has.
13:26:42GodEaterme too - but I didn't want to get into a pissing match over it
13:26:46LloreanYeah, no point.
13:27:02GodEaterbut if newer ipods are to mimic the iphone's UI then I guess it would make some sense
13:27:27ddaltonLinusN: is that ok? I thought I should update them.
13:27:46LinusNddalton: sure, i was just curious why stephane didn't do it himself
13:27:58LloreanYeah, but mimicing the iPhone UI seems a bit overkill, most of its UI relates to features the iPod won't have or use (unless they go for a touchscreen iPod, in which case it's officially a PDA and not a DAP)
13:28:30ddaltonLinusN: I have a playlist catalog patch and id3 viewer patch here. Are you interested in them.
13:28:30LloreanIf I were them, I'd keep them distinct products so that people buy both, instead of introducing too much overlap/similarity.
13:28:37scorcheone of the apple leaks site displayed the look of the new nanos...apple told them to take them down immediately, so it is likely that is a good chance...

13:29:11GodEaterlike there scorche ?
13:29:13LloreanGodEater: Yeah, but that was before the iPhone announcement, and it looked almost exactly like the iPhone.
13:29:18scorcheyup
13:29:59LloreanUgh, now *that* is ugly.
13:30:08GodEateryeah - can't say I'm a fan either
13:30:54GodEaterthe touch screen ipod mockup I saw did look a bit iPhone-ish, only without the ear / mic end pieces near the screen
13:31:07GodEaterof course, there's no telling how accurate it was
13:31:10LloreanYeah
13:31:20LloreanWell, I guess we'll see what Apple announces soon enough
13:31:57GodEaterhttp://www.reghardware.co.uk/2007/08/20/ipod_revamp_due/
13:32:08GodEaterthe text in there says pretty much what we've just said
13:32:14GodEaterthat the new ipod will look like the iphone
13:32:21LloreanI'm actually kinda surprised at how quiet everyone's been about the question of Rockbox on iPhone
13:32:28GodEater4th paragraph to be accurate
13:32:50GodEaterLlorean: I can't imagine it's going to be any easier than getting RB on the 2G Nano though
13:33:07GodEaterunless we're just talking "Rockbox as an App" again
13:33:07LloreanActually, I imagine it'll be quite easy.
13:33:10GodEaterrather than as a firmware
13:33:21scorcheand considering there are already mockups (valid most likely) for the 3rd gen...
13:33:25LloreanI've been lead to believe that SDL runs on the iPhone, so just pick your sim of choice. Forget about the "as an app" bit. ;)

13:34:25LloreanWe may need to prepare a "Please do not spam us about new iPod ports" sign, if there's new models coming up
13:34:39GodEaterI presume we'd still need to compile the SDL sim as an ARM arch though ?
13:34:51LloreanI imagine so.
13:35:02*GodEater wonders if anyone has ever tried that
13:35:09GodEateror how we'd test it

13:37:33preglowif it wasn't apple making it, it would have been forgotten quickly
13:37:35scorchecouls i get you to take a more decisive side?
13:37:59LloreanI think the only decent thing about it is a full-featured web browser coming preinstalled.
13:38:22LloreanBut that's not worth the extra $200 over similar HTC phones with actual 3G radios, etc.
13:38:24scorcheindeed...its browser is one thing that has no equal in that realm
13:38:50GodEaterI wouldn't even consider a non-3g phone now
13:38:58GodEaterit'd be stepping back in time about 5 years
13:39:01preglowgym time
13:39:10amiconnhehe
13:39:18GodEaterI've had it for the last three years and it's a massive improvement over the old GPRS system
13:39:24LloreanSo, I guess the new "feature" of the next iPod will be widescreen?
13:39:35GodEaterlooks that way
13:39:49*amiconn actually set one condition for his new phone to be non-3G
13:40:08GodEateramiconn: is that because of the weird charging in Germany amiconn ?
13:40:13amiconnNope
13:40:40GodEaterthen why ?
13:40:40amiconnIt's because a phone is a phone before all. It's not a camera nor a music player nor sth else

13:42:31GodEaterwhich is a shame, because it was a nice device

18:59:49amiconneinhirn: Do you already have an idea how to fix the latency problem?
19:00
19:00:25einhirnWell, only a "dirty one" - how much latency has the mas when rebuffering?
19:00:45amiconnIt's not constant, it depends on *current* bitrate
19:00:59amiconn...because the buffer has a fixed size
19:01:29amiconnI can only imagine a crude approximation, using the average bitrate
19:01:52amiconnEverything else would require additional infrastructure we do not have in place atm
19:02:19einhirnOk, here is what I thought could be done: Just stop the data stream to the mas after one mp3, wait until the mas signals "empty buffer", set replaygain, stream next piece to mas.
19:02:40amiconnThen you will get gaps in playback, which we do not want
19:04:29einhirnOk, so the MAS won't start playback "immediately".
19:04:36amiconnIt will
19:04:58amiconnBut it has to resync to the stream, which will need a few frames
19:05:12einhirnOh, there's the Gap, I see.
19:05:34amiconnThe mas signals "I need more data" as soon as there is enough room in the buffer for another frame
19:06:03amiconnThen there is enough time for the CPU to react, while the mas continues to play from its buffer
19:06:33amiconnThis time varies with bitrate, for 8kbps mp3 (okay, not very common) it is >1 second

19:07:05einhirnOk, that leaves us with the rough estimate...
19:07:06amiconnIf it hits the end of the buffer and the cpu still didn't feed new data, it gets out of sync
19:07:29amiconnThat would be detectable, but then it's already too late to avoid a gap...
19:07:58einhirnsince the MAS would need to resync. I got that.
19:08:03einhirnHmm.
19:08:26einhirnWell, maybe someone sees an obvious problem in here: http://pastebin.ca/668165
19:08:27amiconnYes, and the signalisation wold be via i2c polling, which also needs its time
19:10:19einhirnSo, the whole "Time elapsed/Duration" thing displayed in the WPS is guesswork?
19:10:55einhirnI think I saw something like a "duration" field somewhere in ID3 or so
19:11:26einhirnand since the mpeg thread keeps track of the "track time" anyway, maybe we could use that?
19:11:56amiconnIt's not guesswork, it's simply based on what we're currently transferring to the mas
19:13:03amiconnFor typical music, we are (roughly) 50 ms ahead - you can't see such a tiny difference on the lcd
19:13:30amiconn...especially since the lcd adds some lag, compensating the fact that we're slightly ahead
19:13:57amiconnBut switching gain 50 ms too early might be audible, if the gain difference is large enough

19:17:03amiconnI'd rather use a multiplication so that the division is a power of 2, and then shift
19:17:37amiconnIt's not so much about execution times (this division is just executed once per track), but about binsize
19:17:56amiconnIirc, the 64 bit division from the gcc lib is a >3KB blob for SH1
19:18:37einhirnyes I can of course use >>4 to divide by 8. That would equal about 18.15 dB as an upper bound.
19:18:59amiconnThat's not what I mean
19:19:12amiconn(and btw, >>4 would be /16)
19:19:41LearComparing against DEFAULT_GAIN after scaling to 0..1 is a bad idea.
19:19:48amiconnI would also think that it should be possible to calculate replaygain with using 32 bit variables only
19:20:08amiconnThe range isn't that large
19:21:03LearCould be a bit tricky to do, without loosing precision, I guess.
19:21:15amiconnI don't think so
19:22:20einhirnLear: I do that because the Scaling to 0..1 is based on the assumption "get_replaygain_int" returns max. 7.1, but there are bigger values possible because of preamp
19:22:46amiconnThe whole replaygain range just equals 11 bits, so using 32 bit vars leaves 21 bits of precision
19:23:49einhirnsince I can only attenuate with the MAS I have to define an attenuation that is used for "1x Gain". In my case that would be -17dB
19:25:04einhirnAmiconn: but when you multiply two 32Bit vars, wouldn't an intermediate value be 64bit at most?
19:25:41amiconnOnly if you need the whole range of both vars, which I doubt
19:26:42amiconnI didn't go through the whole calculation, so I can't be sure whether it's possible. But I would think it is
19:28:54einhirnLear: To answer your questions from about 19:16 - I don't use "get_replaygain_mode" since I can't call from Firmware to App. So I just copied the code and found out that there were many redundant checks.
19:28:59amiconnOn one hand I think it's a good idea to implement replaygain on archos because it's possible, and leaving out a possible feature from a target isn't nice. Otoh I'll probably never use it. I have no replaygained tracks at all...
19:29:58n1sI use it all the time on my h300 it's very nice
19:30:14*bluebrother doesn't want to miss ReplayGain
19:30:42LearAh, you're in firmware, didn't think about that... Could be moved to replaygain.c though.
19:30:56*n1s remembers mix MDs he created several years ago that were a pain when certain tracks came as they nearly blew his eardrums...
19:31:16amiconnLear: The hwcodec playback is in firmware/, so it cannot call code in apps/
19:31:34einhirnLear: The different Values are just copies of the global_settings and of the Replaygain values from the track. Again something with being in firmware.
19:32:13amiconnI want to keep the level differences between tracks, even if it requires to adjust volume a bit between albums

19:33:30amiconnI rarely adjust volume while listening (unless the environmental noise changes)
19:33:32Nico_Pbluebrother: I might have spotted a bug in the rbutilqt theme preview resizing
19:33:45Leareinhirn: Can't say I follow the last steps in your code, but I don't know what values mas wants...
19:33:54Nico_Pbluebrother: the fullsize preview isn't the right size after the dialog has been resized
19:34:02amiconnLear: s0.19 fixed point
19:34:33bluebrotherNico_P: you're right
19:35:09einhirnLear: And from what I understand only values from -1.0 to 0.0 should be used to avoid clipping
19:35:10amiconnAnd it's common to use negative values for straight gain, although not required
19:35:22amiconneinhirn: That's not correct
19:35:30einhirnHmm.
19:35:52amiconnThe *total* gain per channel should not exceed +/- 1.0
19:35:56einhirnThen I misunderstood the MAS Datasheet.
19:36:11einhirnOk.
19:36:25amiconnThat's why stereo width >100% reduces straight gain
19:37:14einhirnYep.
19:37:25amiconnBut replaygain doesn't need to care about that, as it would be "multiplied into" the existing values
19:38:02amiconnIt just needs to produce a value between 0.0 and 1.0 in some fixed point representation

19:40:55bluebrotherthat was a quite easy one. But I'm still not sure if I like the way the fullscreen preview works anyway ;-)
19:41:04rasheramiconn: just kidding, but that's the "problem" album gain is supposed to fix, and you're telling you'd rather not have it fixed.
19:41:05chrisjs169if I wanted to make a diff of all modifications made to the local copy of the source, how would I do that?
19:41:40amiconnrasher: The thing is that it imho it isn't a problem, it's intended...

19:42:01einhirnAmiconn: the multiplying is the part I can't wrap my head around: Maybe I just don't think in 2's complement enough, but I don't get "Larger Values" for the MAS-Register when Multiplying with Gain Values <1...

19:44:18amiconnLear: Well, digital level can't exceed what's possible on CD, and pratically all albums go near that or even reach it
19:44:40linuxstbpixelma: I wonder if it's a caching issue...
19:44:43amiconnDynamics might make the volume appear a bit different, but it's really not much from my experience

19:45:42linuxstbpixelma: Yes, it was. I refreshed the cache for that page, and now it seems fine...
19:45:43amiconnlinuxstb: Does the partial page have a "special" filesize, like e.g. exactly 1MB?

19:46:39Learamiconn: A "hot" album is where the volume is raised a lot during mastering, but then limited to avoid clipping. The perceived volume is then much higher.
19:46:49bluebrotherlinuxstb: beat me :)
19:47:03pixelmalinuxstb: ah yes, helped here too
19:47:17amiconnLear: I've never seen/heard/had such an album it seems
19:48:12amiconnI don't consider differences of about 3dB being much
19:48:35amiconn(that's my usual adjustment for some old Midnight Oil albums)
19:50:45LearOn some albums I have, the replaygain can be about zero, or even above, on others, -10.
19:51:08amiconnvery odd...
19:52:08amiconnMaybe the actual difference between my albums is higher, but that's one more reason for me *not* to level them out
19:53:20XavierGrI dislike the fact that in all Rockbox reviews that I read, it is stressed that in order for Rockbox to look good you have to do your research quite a bit. That's why I think that it is time to select default fonts/wps/themes for all targets.
19:54:27linuxstbXavierGr: The release of rbutil (and the upcoming relaunch of rockbox-themes.org) should also help a lot with that.
19:55:00XavierGramen to that.
19:55:21XavierGrit is just that a thing so trivial is stressed out very much in the end
19:55:33linuxstbXavierGr: One problem with shipping a default theme that doesn't use the system font is that we'll need to always include that font in the "light" rockbox.zip. Otherwise a large number of users will boot into Rockbox before installing that font, breaking the theme...
19:55:46XavierGrindeed
19:55:57XavierGrbut a necessity nonetheless
19:56:44linuxstbI'm not 100% convinced it is. If rbutil becomes the standard install method, it could take care of it, and keep the fonts out of rockbox.zip
19:57:41XavierGrif rbutil is the only official way to install rockbox sure
19:57:49Domonokyit should be easy to make a function in rbutil to generate a good config..
19:58:13einhirnAmiconn: If I mulitply 0x80000 (-1.0) by say 0.5, I get 0x40000 because the compiler doesn't know that the 20th bit is the sign. But I would want 0xC0000... So I'd need the original value to be 0xFFF80000 in a signed variable, right?
19:58:13XavierGrbut still I haven't used rbutil lately how is the user prompted about the theme?
19:58:20rasherXavierGr: it doens't have to be the only official way. The manual way could just put more emphasis on installing the fonts
19:58:25bluebrotherwe should add such a functionality anyway
19:58:25*amiconn would rather like to keep the ability to install without special utilities
19:58:42XavierGrwhat if the user just don't want to install a theme thinking that it comes with a default
19:58:56bluebrotherit does :)
19:58:56XavierGrI know I am becoming finicky but the default theme idea sounds more kiss to me
19:59:19XavierGrbluebrother: yeah that default is a fine one on iPod Video :P
19:59:28Domonokythe (not ready) complete installation button, should give you all.. so fonts, a theme you choose, and of course rockbox..
19:59:42bluebrotherrbutil should allow the user to select some sensible configuration
20:00
20:00:05bluebrotherand users who don't want to always use a gui tool (like me) can still continue to use the current method
20:00:06amiconneinhirn: Yes, sure you need to care about sign extension
20:00:28preglowthe default font is kinda small for tons of targets, anyone even considering to work on solving that?
20:00:36bluebrotherXavierGr: if you want to try it, I put a binary of the current state online: http://www.stud.uni-karlsruhe.de/~uhcn/rockbox/rbutil/
20:00:47bluebrothergotta go now. cu later.
20:00:50amiconnBut don't limit yourself by starting at s0.19. It's sufficient if the final values is s0.19
20:01:01XavierGrbluebrother: I have tried it in the past, but that was a long long time ago
20:01:14amiconnpreglow: ALl user screens need to be converted to using the UI font
20:01:18bluebrothera lot has changed :)
20:01:30*bluebrother out now
20:01:50amiconnThat's a necessity, not so much because the builtin font is small, but because it doesn (and shouldn't) have glyphs for all languages
20:01:59XavierGrpreglow: I don't think it is so difficult to just make the rockbox.zip include a font that should NOT replace the normal tiny one
20:02:12XavierGrthe UI font is needed in the end for many screens
20:02:23amiconnFor all except debug
20:02:24preglowbtw, i thought icatcher was the default wps now. isn't it?
20:02:29XavierGrnope
20:02:35preglowhmm, i wonder where i got that from, then
20:02:39amiconnNo it's not, and I wouldn't like it to be
20:02:40LearUgh, the floppy doesn't sound nice when I click browse (to select my player). :)
20:02:45preglowwell, we should make a default wps, that's for sure
20:02:49XavierGrindeed
20:02:59preglowall users think the current one sucks rod
20:03:08preglowand yeah, i'm not even hesitant when saying "all users" here
20:03:08amiconnhehe
20:03:10XavierGrit is for sure
20:03:22preglowi've gotten used to it, but it sucks badly still
20:03:31*amiconn actually uses the default wps on most of his targets, because he's lazy, and the default does what he wants
20:03:42XavierGrthe defualt is cruel
20:03:43preglowamiconn: yeah, me too, but it's stopping people from wanting to use rockbox
20:03:52amiconnOnly on archos I have my own
20:04:02preglowthat is, my h120 actually uses icatcher, now that i think about it
20:04:07preglowbut i so seldom look at wps :>

20:11:22preglowthe peak meter i'd rather be without
20:11:27preglowi never sit just looking at the wps
20:11:33linuxstbWe can always keep the existing default wps for Archos targets for example, where it's a reasonable default.

20:12:33rasherThe important bit is to keep an eye on the difference between "What I'd like" and "what's a reasonable default"

20:12:47preglowlinuxstb: well, if we can't have another default wps without doing so, then hell yes
20:12:51preglowwhy does it even matter?
20:12:51XavierGrsome screens are hardcoded for that font
20:13:22XavierGrpreglow: to have a new default wps we don't need to replace the UI font
20:13:30preglowi know
20:14:04amiconnXavierGr: huh?
20:14:23XavierGreh sorry I meant replacing the current default font with a larger
20:14:25*linuxstb notes the nimbus fonts are about 30KB, so a negligible increase in the size of rockbox.zip
20:14:39XavierGrthat is not needed and would be quite hard to do so.
20:14:49preglowlinuxstb: i'd expect most of them are of negligible size
20:15:01XavierGrindeed
20:15:06rasherlinuxstb: they also support cyrillic and hebrew, which is not unimportant
20:15:07preglowso i don't see a problem here
20:15:13amiconnXavierGr: The default (builtin) font, yes
20:16:08preglowanyway, are there any nice small fonts we can use as builtin on targets with bigger screens than archoses?
20:16:14amiconnImo it would be more important to convert all user screens to use the UI font before even thinking about packaging a different default theme
20:16:17preglowcp850 8x16, for example :>

20:17:47XavierGrwell I meant that we shouldn't touch FONT_UI
20:17:56linuxstbsaratoga: To answer your question about the audio buffer, if the file contains one audio payload per packet (which all my test files seem to, apart from that broken v1 file), then no, nothing is modified in the audio buffer.
20:17:59saratogapreglow: i want to at least get it seeking in reverse
20:18:00amiconnAs soon as FONT_SYSFIXED is only used for debug stuff, I would even cut it down to pure ascii
20:18:15XavierGrdamn I misused the tags again
20:18:16XavierGrbah
20:18:36saratogalinuxstb: 1 payload/packet is normal right?
20:18:37preglowis it used by a lot of user screens?
20:18:40preglowseems really nasty to me
20:18:44XavierGramiconn: if I remember it is used by many screens
20:18:52linuxstbsaratoga: Yes.
20:19:04XavierGrso changing FONT_SYSFIXED should be quite difficult
20:19:08saratogathen i'll implement reverse seeking for now

20:19:19saratogathat error i was getting is really strange though
20:19:24amiconnI do not want to change it
20:19:43amiconnIts use should be limited to debug screens and severe error messages
20:19:44saratogaeven weirder, it crashes the uisim, but on the target, it just messes up the track position graphic
20:19:44linuxstbsaratoga: You can test by searching for the occurance of "memmove" in wma.c, and add a DEBUGF to tell you when that memmove is being called. In my test files, it never was.
20:19:51preglowXavierGr: any examples? can't say i've noticed it

20:20:15linuxstbsaratoga: Is your patch still frame-walking the file?
20:20:20amiconnrasher: All user screens should use the UI font for consistency and language support
20:20:36*amiconn gets the feeling he's talking chinese
20:20:37XavierGrpreglow: rec screen, quickscreen
20:20:52amiconnThe quickscreen uses the UI font
20:21:06rasheramiconn: yes, but still. The builtin font being tiny is silly. Even if it's (eventually) only used in the debug menu
20:21:23linuxstbIt's also in the status bar...
20:21:23XavierGrideally FONT_SYSFIXED should only be used for debug and system errors as amiconn said, but that's not the case right now
20:21:28saratogalinuxstb: yes it is
20:21:32XavierGrand I can't imagine how it is possible to change that
20:21:34preglowrec screen will be a hairy one to fix
20:21:40amiconnXavierGr: So that's the important part to work on...........
20:21:49saratogai don't see any reason to change that, its quick enough even on PP
20:22:04linuxstbsaratoga: Even with large (e.g. 100MB) files?

20:22:30amiconnlinuxstb: Yes, and button bar, but all that is fixable
20:22:44saratogai only read a few bytes from each packet, so the cpu time should be tiny
20:22:49linuxstbsaratoga: IMO frame-walking is very bad. We don't do it for MP3 for example.

20:24:17saratogathat reminds me
20:24:28saratogait seems the present parser doesn't deal with the last packet properly?
20:25:04preglowseek and resync should do nicely then
20:25:55amiconnXavierGr: It being a difficult task is no excuse
20:26:00saratogaso basically, skip ahead a certain number of packets, and check the time step to see how close you are?
20:26:18preglowwell, if i understood linuxstb correctly, packets are fixed size
20:26:28preglowso you can basically pretty much seek straight to where you're going
20:26:31saratogawhich is a problem if vbr is used?
20:26:34linuxstbsaratoga: Based on the average bitrate, seek to approximately where you think the correct packet will be, then adjust.
20:26:44saratogaok thats what i assumed
20:26:45preglowbinary search if you have to
20:27:02linuxstbpreglow: Yes, or that...
20:27:05saratogaVBR in WMA is probably quite constrained anyway
20:27:09pixelmapreglow: the current default wps not liked by a number of users (those who care only about the looks) could also be an argument for keeping the current one ;D
20:27:25saratogaanyway, i'm somewhat concerned about the last packet problem
20:27:40saratogais it just me or is the parser unable to decode the last packet of every stream?
20:27:45preglowpixelma: i doubt there are many people who care _only_ about the looks
20:28:07XavierGramiconn: wouldn't be a simpler solution (for the new default theme) to just change FONT_UI to the one that will be shipped with rockbox.zip?
20:29:03XavierGrexcept if you are reffering to the fact that FONT_SYSFIXED has to be changed to be cleaner.
20:29:05amiconnXavierGr: The UI font should be selected per target and set as default to the one shipped, but that's the last step imo
20:29:07pixelmapreglow: but if the wps is the reason to scare people away... (I'm not entirely serious though)
20:29:18amiconnBefore doing that, we need to get our screens straight
20:29:47pixelmaXavierGr: there is another thing about iCatcher, for my M5 it still uses a too small font...
20:29:48preglowpixelma: if you're not entirely serious i won't bother arguing with you :D
20:29:50amiconnThat will also fix the nasty LANG_SYSFONT_* entries
20:30:06preglowbut anyway, good looks never hurt
20:30:11rasherYeah, those aren't nice
20:30:11amiconnImo that's a more serious lack than the default wps. Really and honestly
20:30:13preglowand in our case, the wps looks plain crappy
20:30:20XavierGramiconn: yeah but I don't find those too things so much related
20:30:27XavierGrtoo = two
20:30:37amiconnRight now you can't use russian, or greek, or arabic on the recording screen, in the button bar etc

20:31:00preglowhmm
20:31:07linuxstbamiconn: I agree, but changing the default wps is a 2-minute job... Little work for a big gain in the eyes of new uesrs IMO, so why not do it?
20:31:10preglowbut how to set up the recording screen to use arbitrarily sized fonts?
20:31:17preglowhear, hear
20:31:38*XavierGr says wrs :P
20:31:57PhalangeesI've got a question. When setting the foreground color in a plugin, what exactly do you pass?? rb->lcd_set_foreground(????)
20:31:58amiconnlinuxstb: Because it's the second step before the first
20:32:09preglowamiconn: why does the order even matter?
20:32:11rasheramiconn: the first step being?
20:32:23XavierGrMy opinion is that yes IDEALLY we should change FONT_SYSFIXED too but that is not an obstacle for a new default theme on targets
20:33:00XavierGrrasher: changing FONT_SYSFIXED and making all screens work okay with the different font
20:33:09preglownew wps first or ui font everywhere, it doesn't matter which comes first
20:33:16XavierGrindeed
20:33:19amiconnAgain, touching FONT_SYSFIXED would be a really really bad idea imo
20:33:32XavierGrnow I got confused...
20:33:43XavierGrah I think I got it
20:33:58rasheramiconn: What needs to be done before changing the default WPS, and why?
20:34:08amiconnIt should stay the same size, and fixed width, and the same width and height on all targets
20:34:21amiconnrasher: The talk was about default theme, not default wps
20:34:23preglowamiconn: even though it's unreadable on ipod video?
20:34:39amiconnpreglow: It's perfectly readable on ipod video...
20:34:43rasheramiconn: okay, default theme then, I dont see how that changes my question?
20:34:51XavierGrpreglow: probably amiconn means that FONT_SYSFIXED should be used only on debug an errors
20:34:56amiconnIt does, because a theme includes a font
20:35:02rasherAnd?
20:35:31amiconnA theme cannot look good if it uses different fonts
20:35:33XavierGrbut again I don't see why fixing those screens comes first
20:35:35preglowthis is a consistency problem, users have dealt with inconsistencies before, it's nothing new
20:35:36rasherI don't understand why we can't set a user font and a theme as default. Right now
20:36:04amiconnIt makes the UI inconsistent
20:36:05preglowa new theme just makes the problem more visible, perhaps that'd even make us fix it faster :>
20:36:14rasheramiconn: It will be no different from what users are seeing when they change the theme manually
20:36:28XavierGramiconn: the UI is inconsistent even if you use FONT_SYSFIXED
20:36:30amiconnYes, but tnow they need to mess it up manually
20:36:41XavierGrit is unreadable on larger targets there is no point in that
20:36:48rasherI really think you're making an issue out of something that isn't one
20:37:06amiconnMy opinion is: do it properly or let it altogether
20:37:07preglowagreed
20:38:04rasheramiconn: There's no reason to hold up changing the default theme. It'll be better, right now. Not perfect, but still better. Switching all other screens to use FONT_UI can be done independently, and will gradually make things even better.
20:38:05preglowand now: anyone agree on what the default theme should be? :PP
20:38:42linuxstbpreglow: Of course not...
20:38:45XavierGrit could be different for every target but oh please we must get on that process (of picking them) at some point
20:39:17XavierGr^could/should
20:39:30preglowyes, and how are we going to do that?
20:39:37XavierGrthe wps could be different. The themes should be different obviously
20:39:37preglowit can't be done by arguing about it, that's for sure
20:39:51XavierGrmake the big three decide :P
20:39:55pregloweither someone big make a decision and do it, or we need to vote in some way
20:39:58amiconndamn
20:40:12*amiconn shouldn't have dived into that discussion
20:40:23amiconnNow I'm too annoyed to get back to rockbox coding :((
20:40:41XavierGrwow you are actually annoyed by it? relax...
20:41:11amiconnYes I am. Severely.
20:41:38*einhirn thinks that gcc for sh somehow doesnt cope well with 64bit-Integers...
20:41:48pregloweinhirn: it should
20:41:48rasherI just think we're seeing a case of "perfect is the enemy of the good", with nothing real gained by waiting for the perfect.
20:41:56preglowagain, agreed
20:42:05pixelmamaking a wps that looks good and keeps at least the same feel on all targets is very hard... and it should at least have that, so that someone who knows it from one target will recognise it on the other :\
20:42:19XavierGrIMHO someone shouldn't take those things so seriously. we are just saying our opinions, nothing to be annoyed about.
20:42:24preglowpixelma: i think it's so hard we shouldn't necessarily go for that approach
20:42:33preglowpixelma: icatcher does do a decent job of it, though
20:42:35preglowthe consistency
20:42:50pixelmayes, iCatcher comes close
20:43:19pixelmastill nedore-9 is not very readable on my 160x128x2 display
20:43:21einhirnpreglow: Yes, but when I use "int64_t" and set a Value like 0xFFFF FFFF FF80 0000 the compiler complains about integer constant is too large for 'long' type
20:43:43amiconnYou need to write 0xffffffffff8000ll
20:43:46pregloweinhirn: ll
20:43:49preglowyeah, what amiconn said
20:43:58amiconn(or ull for unsigned)
20:43:59einhirnoh. Ok.
20:44:04preglowc compilers assume all constants are long type
20:44:15preglowamiconn: is LL and ll the same?
20:44:21amiconnI think they assume int type?
20:44:25amiconnpreglow: yes
20:44:27*einhirn always keeps learning
20:44:29preglowamiconn: yeah, they assume int, sorry
20:44:42amiconnOn 32 bit you're lucky that int == long
20:44:51preglowindeed... plenty of people are lucky that's the case...
20:45:05preglowit's gotten better, though, i had tons and tons of those error in pretty much all the code i tried some years ago

20:46:49 Quit spiorf (Connection timed out)
20:46:57pixelmabtw. I believe (though the creator should say) that he chose nedore-9 for those displays (especially H1x0 and X5) to have enough lines on the rwps - would be nice if one could chose a different font size for main/remote
20:47:26pixelmawhich is another problem, I'm aware

20:53:49pixelmaor at least I could imagine that it was one of his reasons - at least I find it weird to either chose the same font for the H300/H100 wps so that they can use the same rwps or have a different rwps for H300 with less info (or more sublines/whatever to show the same info)
21:00
21:00:13preglowi pretty much forgot remotes existed until you mentioned it :>

21:00:32XavierGrwell I can't imagine the word of rockbox without a remote

23:13:26Phalangeeshow do you do MOD in C?? like 7 MOD 2 = 1
23:13:34Phalangeesmodulus division
23:13:43Bagdera = b % c;
23:13:55saratogais there a dynamic range compression option in rockbox?
23:13:57Phalangeesthanks badger. I didn't know for sure if it was that

23:22:58Phalangeesis there an easy way to round in C. I'm getting errors by doing modulus division
23:23:37jhMikeShrm...almost every context switch results in running the same thread
23:24:31jhMikeSout of 540 or so per second at idle, only about 10-12 pick a new thread
23:25:36peturjhMikeS: that most be the priorisation....
23:25:39linuxstb_Phalangees: C integer division will always round down. So for example if you're dividing by 10, you can round to nearest by adding 5 - i.e. (x+5)/10
23:25:41petur*must
23:25:58bluebrotherPhalangees: just do it the manual way ... add .5 and cut the decimal digits
23:26:15PhalangeesJeez I feel dumb. I completely forgot about that method.
23:26:21PhalangeesThanks

23:39:27BjerrkHm, which device would you say that rockbox works the best on? Performance and battery wise, for example..
23:40:31Bagderbattery wise, the M5L...
23:40:48linuxstb_performance - gigabeat F
23:40:57linuxstb_(as in the target with fastest CPU)
23:41:21BjerrkAh, thanks. How pricey is the M5L nowadays?
23:41:36PhalangeesSorry for interrupting again but is there away to test if a button is being held down rather then just pushed?
23:42:58pixelmasee BuyersGuide wiki page, it's a bit hard to find one (found only one ebay shop which sells a bunch of them every now and then; mp3-direct it's called - an uk store)
23:43:21linuxstb_Bjerrk: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Cowon-iAudio-M5L-20-GB-LONG-PLAY-BRAND-NEW_W0QQitemZ280120567781QQihZ018QQcategoryZ73839QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItem
23:44:30linuxstb_Phalangees: You can check the current status of the buttons - button_get_status() (or something like that...)
23:44:36BjerrkDamn.. That's a cheap one. But the shipping is $20 :P
23:44:46PhalangeesOk thanks.
23:45:02pixelmaBjerrk: that one - it only has the disadvantge that the charger has UK plugs...
23:45:05linuxstb_Phalangees: Or you can check for "repeat" events
23:45:12SoapSudHello, will there ver be support for the chine replica ipods, as I have searched the internet for firmware upgrades, but cannot find any. i think a change to linux (ie rockbox) is the only choice?
23:45:16SoapSudever*
23:45:32SoapSudchinese*
23:45:41Bjerrkpixelma: Hm, crud.. Well, i think i've got an adapter for those, actually.
23:45:46BagderSoapSud: 1) rockbox is not linux 2) ports don't happen by accident
23:45:49linuxstb_SoapSud: If a user (or users) of such devices port Rockbox, then yes. Otherwise it's extremely unlikely.
23:46:14SoapSudah ok, can i go about porting it myself?

23:46:35charge|Roflcpt3rHi, quick question for ya
23:46:42BjerrkBut, feature wise, how well does the M5L work with rockbox? No broken features or grave bugs?
23:46:47SoapSudright, thanks
23:46:49charge|Roflcpt3rIs rockbox compatitlbe with the gmini 402?
23:46:57Bagdercharge|Roflcpt3r: no
23:47:10charge|Roflcpt3ri see
23:47:12charge|Roflcpt3rthank you
23:47:27linuxstb_Bjerrk: The only limitation I can think of is that there is no dual-boot - you need to uninstall Rockbox if you ever want to use the original firmware.
23:47:40pixelmaBjerrk: works very well, just not something for you when you need - colour screen or radio, as I said the BuyersGuide in the wiki gives an overview
23:47:41BjerrkThat's okay by me.
23:47:49linuxstb_Or maybe USBOTG? (does the M5L have that?)
23:47:51 Quit charge|Roflcpt3r (Client Quit)
23:47:53BjerrkBuyersGuide.. aha :p
23:48:01pixelmalinuxstb: you don't really need dual boot on M5...
23:48:59pixelmait doesn't have USBotg but instead of that you have a "normal" usb connection without sub-pack (all in the BuyersGuide... ;) )
23:49:48Bjerrklinuxstb_ and pixelma: The reason i'm asking is that i really like using rockbox on my ipod video, but the battery life is just really, really bad :-(
23:50:25dionoeathat's going to get better :)

23:50:40pixelmayou can use the sub-pack if you have one (for line-in for example) - it's not recommended according to the cowon to establish both USB connections at the same time ;)
23:50:53linuxstb_Bjerkk: How long do you get? People seem to be reporting up to about 10 hours on the ipod video.
23:50:56pixelmas/cowon/cowon manual
23:51:26Bjerrklinuxstb_: 5 hours, i think. If i listen to musik all the time, and fiddle around with the menus once in a while
23:52:01linuxstb_What format music?
23:52:11BjerrkMostly mp3, some ogg.
23:52:19BjerrkNo aac, m4a or anything like that.
23:52:59linuxstb_30GB model?
23:53:04Bjerrkyeah.
23:53:45linuxstb_OK... According to this page, about 7 hours seems normal - http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IpodRuntime

23:54:48*dionoea would vote closer to 5hours than 7hours of runtime (I'd have to run a real battery bench to confirm)

23:57:10Bjerrkpixelma: Battery life seems to be one of the most important things to me.. But i can't find the M5L on the iaudio site. I see the M5 there, tough.
23:57:34Bjerrk*though..
23:57:37linuxstb_kapoot: Current Rockbox seems to be unhappy on a minority of Nanos. I think the only solution is to revert to an older build - see the "archived builds" page.
23:57:57kapootlinuxstb −−- i've tried going back to like 14000 and its still fubar
23:58:00pixelmawhere? Basically the M5L is the M5 with a Large battery so to speak
23:58:08kapooti don't think the archived builds go back that far
