#rockbox log for 2007-10-25

00:00:02preglownomel: *shrug*, the plugins part isn't really _that_ relevant, we might as well put it in the core as we do with crossfeed
00:00:15preglownomel: the harder part is finding someone to code it at all
00:00:44 Quit jhulst ("Konversation terminated!")
00:01:16amiconnI would think that such kind of stuff is out of reach for almost all our targets
00:01:29preglowme too
00:01:51preglowdepends how you do it
00:02:12preglowfor iir reverb models, it is possible
00:02:17preglowbut i bet it uses fir filters
00:02:20 Quit spiorf (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
00:02:26preglowmight be possible on coldfire, forget it for pp
00:02:50 Quit davina (Remote closed the connection)
00:03:30preglowno, looks like it's iir after all
00:03:45preglowdoing a reverb dsp plugin is on my todo list, but don't expect it soon
00:03:51preglowi code at a snail's pace these days
00:04:36safetydanpreglow, right that's a lot of ideas.
00:06:04safetydanpreglow, how about using some color to indicate potential clipping rather than automatically changing the precut? e.g. the gain sliders turn red when you're in potential clipping land
00:06:35safetydanpreglow, also, there's the Karma EQ if you're looking for other systems with parametric eqs
00:06:44preglowsafetydan: sounds good
00:06:53preglowsafetydan: i'm more looking for people with daps with parametric eqs
00:07:00preglowsafetydan: so they can test how they handle clipping
00:07:29preglowsafetydan: if not change colour, then at least some other visual cue
00:07:51preglowsince colour changes don't come easy on grayscales
00:07:53rasherperhaps a line at the point where clipping would occur (this would also work on bw targets)
00:08:01preglowthat sounds better
00:08:06safetydanrasher, that would work
00:08:13maxkelleypreglow: flashing line on clipping
00:08:24preglowbrb
00:08:33rasherit could still turn red on colour targets of course, but that shouldn't be the only indicator, since there's no warning
00:08:41rasheryou're just suddenly "too high"
00:09:16maxkelleywhen it gets close to clipping, pulse orange?
00:09:24n1ssafetydan: do you mean like when volume+precut+gain for the band > 0 ?
00:09:31LloreanHow do you know where clipping may occur, though?
00:09:35safetydann1s, something like that
00:09:38LloreanI mean, it's theoretically possible with *any* positive gain change.
00:09:42LloreanRight?
00:09:51maxkelleyyeah
00:10:14 Quit MethoS- (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
00:10:19maxkelleyyou could sort of have something where if it gets close to a threshold several times within a period of time, it'll start to warn..
00:10:25safetydanLlorean, yes. But it at least serves as a warning
00:10:27LloreanWhich would of course mean that the line would be dead center, very easily mistaken for the "center point" line.
00:10:38maxkelleyis a clipping warning really required?
00:10:45Lloreansafetydan: I don't think it'd get interpreted as a warning, honestly. I think it'd be interpreted as "the middle"
00:10:49maxkelleylike, prior to clipping.
00:11:16maxkelleymy poweramps don't let me know before I'm about to clip, they let me know once their relays trigger and the music's off :P
00:11:20n1sLlorean: you should put precut and volume into the equation too
00:11:26Lloreanmaxkelley: I've seen bug reports and forum posts from people adding too much gain, getting clipping, and thinking something is broken.
00:11:43maxkelleyah, ok.
00:11:57Lloreann1s: Volume doesn't really matter, since it's analog and a different question I believe, but precut would of course raise the line, yes.
00:12:07safetydanLlorean, well a warning indicator somewhere on the screen might work. Even if i's a little ! symbol or something in the corner
00:12:13maxkelleyhow about an exclamation mark next to the volume?
00:12:24maxkelleyflashing exclamation.. red on color targets.
00:12:32preglowsafetydan: anyway, i believe the gui should have vertical bar widgets, all fitting in the screen
00:12:42preglowsafetydan: though not necessarily fitting all the settings in text
00:12:46n1sLlorean: I think our dacs do the gain control in the digital domain but I'm not sure, anyone knows?
00:12:55maxkelleyI seem a bit obsessed with flashing tonight :)
00:13:13preglowsafetydan: you would select which bar to work on with left right, and up/down to change value, then a mode switch key
00:13:17preglownot too different from what it is now
00:13:20*Llorean is now a fan of a "prevent clipping" option for the equalizer, enabled by default, but easy to disable for those who actually know what they're doing.
00:13:30maxkelleysoft clipping!
00:13:41preglowLlorean: i think people are bound to be confused by eqs, and that's that
00:13:46Lloreanpreglow: Agreed.
00:13:48maxkelleywe'll be like NAD!
00:13:53preglowLlorean: if we have prevent clipping, people will come asking why the eq controls don't work
00:14:12Lloreanpreglow: Why wouldn't they work?
00:14:39 Join atsea-32 [0] (i=atsea-@gateway/tor/x-f62271d268aa14f1)
00:14:41preglowLlorean: right, i keep forgetting we're not going to compensate for the precut with analogue gain
00:14:56preglowLlorean: in that case they'll just come asking why adjusting gain sometimes lowers their volume
00:15:10preglowpoint is that a parametric eq is complex, not much you can do to help it
00:15:14LloreanWe could *show* the precut in the graphical EQ screen. :)
00:15:19preglowaside from limiting users to presets
00:15:27LloreanThen when "prevent clipping" is enabled, they see it happening.
00:15:28preglowthis is probably why apple goes that route
00:15:33maxkelleyhmm.
00:15:44LloreanOr...
00:15:45LloreanBetter yet.
00:15:53maxkelleyI wonder if we should have a sort of "Interface Simplicity" level..
00:15:53LloreanShow a "suggested" value on the precut bar.
00:16:01LloreanRather than having any option for it.
00:16:08maxkelleySimple, Intermediate, Advanced
00:16:25LloreanJust a little marker that shows where on the precut bar the "clipping is possible above here" mark is.
00:16:37 Quit BigBambi (Remote closed the connection)
00:16:39LloreanThen you're still leaving everything up to the user, but you're giving them a small visual cue?
00:17:34preglowLlorean: which they almost certainly are not going to understand without reading the manual
00:18:28maxkelleyI was thinking the same.
00:18:30Lloreanpreglow: True, but I've seen eq sliders with the first "bar" being the precut several times. The roaming mark on it will just prompt curious users to actually find out what's going on, and hopefully result in a little education.
00:18:41n1swe should be more like the linux guys, "free software is about freedom (to do really stupid things)" :-)
00:18:46maxkelleyhehe
00:19:08maxkelley"so, if I want to delete something, I do rm -rf /?"
00:19:09n1sbut really, idiot proofing hardly ever works out nicely...
00:19:27preglowyeah
00:19:29preglowi don't think so either
00:19:33maxkelleybecause there are always idiots that don't understand the idiotproofing :)
00:19:34preglowit has to be dead simple, or not at all
00:19:36safetydanokay, so we're going to change the preset handling to be more like the radio stations. Vertical bars. Scale the screen for all targets. Voice. Some use of color. One screen to rule them all and in the darkness bind them.
00:19:58preglowsafetydan: word, but forget about the preset handling for now
00:20:03preglowi'd concentrate on the gui screen first
00:20:04Lloreanpreglow: I think putting the precut on the same screen as the EQ controls isn't a bad idea anyway. At that point, why NOT put a "suggested" indicator on it?
00:20:20safetydanLlorean, yeah everything on one screen will be a goal
00:20:23preglowLlorean: i don't think it's a bad idea either, it just depends on a) space, and b) how well it goes logically with the rest of the screen
00:20:30LloreanI'll give you that then.
00:20:33maxkelleyso, are we talking about the parametric or graphic, right now?
00:20:38n1sOr we could just change the eq to only allow negative gains :-)
00:20:46maxkelleyheh
00:20:48 Join BigBambi [0] (n=alex@rockbox/staff/BigBambi)
00:20:51safetydaneven if the screen becomes pretty much just text on the smaller lcds
00:20:52Lloreann1s: Nah, that'd be effectively the same as an automated precut.
00:20:57preglowlike, if all eq sliders change mode between gain/q/centerfreq at the touch of a button, how do we show the precut slider didn't change?
00:20:59safetydanmaxkelley, there will only be one screen
00:20:59 Quit ompaul (Client Quit)
00:21:09preglowwe should try to rely on text as little as possible in this screen, there won't be room for much of it on some targets
00:21:14Lloreanpreglow: A horizontal separator between it and the other 5
00:21:16LloreanErr, vertical
00:21:19maxkelleywill it be graphic, though?
00:21:19LloreanSingle pixel wide bar
00:21:30preglowmakes sense
00:21:39n1sLlorean: but it would be a lot less confusing, but i guess the users wouldn't know wht to do when they just want more bass and cant turn up the low shelf
00:21:54LloreanUsually I see them "spaced" to the left of the actual "EQ" sliders, but space may not be free, compared to a single added pixel
00:21:56maxkelleyn1s: there's a bass option in the sound settings.
00:22:11safetydanmaxkelley, that's not enough for some people
00:22:32maxkelleyI'd be fearing for my ears at that point.
00:22:36Lloreann1s: It'd be less confusing, but the idea is not to take away any power from people who are clueful in the process
00:23:07Lloreanmaxkelley: You should see how many people talk about how "great" Rockbox sounds with something like a cumulative 30dB added to the lower frequencies between Bass and EQ.
00:23:22n1smaxkelley: but it's not enough bass!!11!! one
00:23:26maxkelleyhehe
00:24:05maxkelleythose are the people who drive home and wonder why their spoiler walked off the back of their trunk :)
00:24:30n1sLlorean: an eq with 0->-24dB gains combined with preamp would give the exact same possibilities we have now but meh, it won't stop them
00:25:35Lloreann1s: My suggestion was to automate the precut (effectively the same thing) and then someone could un-cut with a "Digital Gain" (preamp) option if they knew they had headroom.
00:25:41n1smaxkelley: usually I guess they use headphones with poor bass response or are just weird ;)

00:27:13preglowdoesn't the sansas have decent eqs?

00:28:45maxkelleyah, ok, was just curious.
00:29:01maxkelleyis it routed directly to headphone amp?

00:31:24n1sI think it would be better to try to build some kind of adapter for the 160gB 1.8" drives
00:32:32maxkelleyright now, I'm waiting for SDHC support to break past 2 gig :(

00:40:04lostlogicroolku: other than my first statement earlier, nobody was claiming that the replaygain preamp applied to all files
00:40:09lostlogicwhich you seemed to think we were
00:40:19lostlogicwe were saying tha the equalizer precut applied to all files, which it does.
00:40:57gryzorgreetings
00:40:59lostlogicthat's settinsg|sound settings|equalizer|precut
00:41:07roolkulostlogic: no I wanted a (negative) amplification for files without replaygain
00:41:22lostlogicroolku: yes, I know, that's what I wanted and what I have not
00:41:23lostlogicnow
00:41:38gryzorsince i installed rockbox few minutes ago (went well, boots), my computer won't see the sandisk e250 device as a USB mass storage device anymore. What have i missed ?
00:41:41lostlogicI set the preamp in replaygain to +6dB and I set the equalizer precut to -12dB
00:41:51maxkelleyshmart.
00:42:52roolkulostlogic: amiconn suggested to use the positive amplification for replaygained files as a workaround, which works, apart from the fact that the lineout on the gigabeat is to high for my stereo
00:43:13lostlogicroolku: yes, so then you use the equalizer precut to bring it back into line.
00:43:28keanugryzor, restart the sansa, and press |<< to boot the OF
00:43:36roolkulostlogic: unfortunately the equilizer precut only works withe the equilizer enabled
00:43:36keanuor restart and connect the usb cable
00:43:51roolkulostlogic: which I would ratert not
00:43:54roolkurather
00:44:01gryzorkeanu: cable must be connected while starting ?
00:44:12lostlogicroolku: yeah, I agree with that −− I gotta go digging in the code and see how the code paths differ between eq precut and relpaygain preamp
00:44:14keanunot must, but can be
00:44:26lostlogicbecause I'd rather be able to use only one code path for both 'simple' amplifications
00:44:26gryzori dont understand
00:44:43gryzori must used the original firmware to be able to view my device from my computer ?
00:44:50roolkuyep, that would be a good solution

00:45:29gryzori read the doc but didnt find this information there :)
00:46:24rasherI'm not sure, but it might be an "information by ommission" - since there isn't information on how to use usb, that means that it's not supported.
00:46:36gryzorhehe
00:46:47gryzortypical developer behhaviour :)
00:47:04gryzorbut counter intuitive for newbies, if i may suggest so
00:47:04maxkelley:)
00:47:30rasherI agree that it should be mentioned, but with any luck, it might not be necessary for much longer, so I don't know if anyone will bother adding it
00:47:39Lloreanlostlogic: My understanding is that there's only one gain multiply, and it's cumulative of the EQ and replaygain pres if they're both valid for that file
00:48:05Lloreanlostlogic: You may also want to pass on to Roolku in case he still has me on ignore that there's no penalty for enabling the EQ just for the precut, if you've got the bands set at 0 they don't do anything anyway.

00:49:29gryzorrockbox seems to browse only dirs that are named HIGHCASE, lowcase dirs are not displayed
00:49:36gryzoris that intended? or some default option ?
00:50:07maxkelleyerm, you should press-hold on files are select show all files.
00:50:19lostlogicLlorean: but there is the problem that each packet still gets run through that 5 loop to see that there is nothin to do
00:50:31maxkelleyit by default only shows dirs with music or files it can do something with, I think.
00:50:34roolkulostlogic: so it is just a matter of removing the dependency on the eq enable setting?
00:50:39Lloreanlostlogic: I was told there was no performance penalty if a filter was disabled.
00:50:56krazykitgryzor, the MUSIC directory is marked as "hidden" by the sansa's firmware, which is why you can't see it.
00:51:03gryzorahhh, crap
00:51:04LloreanThough it may have been a generalization of "so minimal as to be the same as none"

00:53:10preglowdoes the h1x0 remote need to be plugged in at startup time to be able to view anything?
00:53:16Lloreanlostlogic: So a case of "minimal, but there"?

00:54:11Nico_Pargh the buffering debug screen adds 1144 bytes... it's about 90% of the binsize increase from MoB
00:54:18roolkuLlorean: even if there is no performance penalty, if I then want to use the eq (e.g. for headphones) I can't just turn it on (and off respectively) but have to fiddle with presets.
00:54:26preglowNico_P: then don't include it? :P
00:54:47Lloreanroolku: If you have two presets, "off" and "headphones", it takes just as much fiddling as an on/off option.
00:54:51Nico_Ppreglow: I was thinking of maybe removing the audio debug screen instead
00:55:02lostlogicLlorean: yeah, pretty minimal - 1 function call, 15 instructions, 5 of which involve dereferencing to memory.
00:55:03Nico_Pand reducing the buffering debug screen too
00:55:11lostlogicbut that's per packet
00:55:43roolkuLlorean: you forget the disk spinup
00:56:09Lloreanroolku: Are you telling me that you change from your stereo to your headphones so often, and plug in so rarely, that the disk spinup of that will significantly affect your usage pattern?
00:56:37preglowNico_P: well, the pcm buffer level, at least, is nice to have
00:56:38roolkuI agree it is possible to do, but these are all workarounds
00:56:50Nico_Ppreglow: it's in the buffering debug screen too
00:56:53preglowNico_P: i've diagnosed user's codecs problems by having them look at that
00:56:59preglowNico_P: sure, if no info is lost, just axe it
00:57:04Lloreanroolku: Workarounds that don't increase the binary size, or create more confusing options for users, mind you.
00:57:16maxkelleyrockbox should standardize an additional ring on headphone jacks, telling what sort of device is connected by means of resistance values :)
00:57:22Nico_PI'll probably do that... I'm just relieved that the 1k increase is just that

00:58:05maxkelleyheh, I know, I'm joking.

01:00:36Lloreanroolku: Are you saying that the equalizer doesn't need a precut?
01:01:03Lloreanroolku: If the precut is untied from the equalizer, then it would be impossible for equalizer presets to adjust to the proper digital gain cut without ruining your balanced replaygain as you want it.

01:02:43Lloreanroolku: And I'm saying: The EQ needs a reserved precut so that presets can properly offset boosted frequencies and ensure no clipping.
01:03:01LloreanYour suggestion is to "steal" one feature to use for something else.
01:03:33lostlogicNico_P: that's cool, if you commit then I'll just see it there and can push changes directly ;)
01:03:39LloreanHonestly, if you want your normal audio louder relative to your replaygained files, why don't you normalize them to a level lower than 89?

01:03:55lostlogicI'm definitely in favor of putting both of those gain settings in a unified place instead of a mile apart int he menus.
01:04:03barrywardellamiconn: around? I've done quite a bit of experimenting with the lcd regs if you're interested?
01:04:13roolkuLlorean: apparently you dont. the presets could still contain a pre-amp setting
01:04:45Lloreanroolku: No, it would no longer be a pre-cut for the EQ. It would be a digital gain setting, independent of the EQ.
01:04:58Lloreanroolku: Meaning that if someone loads an EQ preset, it'll override the perceived separate "digital gain" feature.

01:05:32roolkuI do not understand what you are trying to say with "Honestly, if you want your normal audio louder relative to your replaygained files, why don't you normalize them to a level lower than 89?"
01:05:32LloreanUnless you want to leave it as precut, and separate it functionally only, in which case it's pointless. Again, you can achieve everything you want without doing so.
01:05:40 Quit hcs (Remote closed the connection)
01:06:26Lloreanroolku: Replaygain adjusts your gain values to a specific level. In some scanners you can choose a lower level or higher level, making it quieter or louder relative to your non-scanned audio.
01:06:35roolkuLlorean: "it might be good to seperate the pre-amp that is currently tied to the eq on/off setting and apply it always"
01:07:14Lloreanroolku: Yes, you told me that before. I already read that once. I already told you that I understand what you're saying.
01:07:17roolku"lostlogic: no I wanted a (negative) amplification for files without replaygain"
01:07:35safetydanpreglow, are you going to submit those changes upstream?
01:07:49Lloreanroolku: Mathematically that's the same as positive amplification for files with replaygain combined with a negative amplification for all files.

01:09:00Lloreanroolku: So, you're saying "keep calling it EQ precut"?
01:09:07preglowbut i've decided to keep them that way, so we'll see

01:10:02roolkuwhich I currently can't
01:11:01Lloreanroolku: I don't understand why you can't turn on the EQ, first off. Secondly, I don't understand why you think it's intuitive at all to have an EQ setting NOT turn off when you turn off the EQ.

It appears common in applications which support ReplayGain to have an adjustable gain/cut for non-RG'd files. If people find a second digital gain entry buried in the menus confusing - they probably should mess with it. One is with the software EQ - and I would assume this is the one most people see. As long as it is clear _in t
05:26:40Soaphe manual_ that the second one with ReplayGain is an /additional/ gain setting (not another entry point to the same gain setting) what is the issue? We expect users to read the manual when it is a question that gets asked 1,000 times, why don't we expect the users to read the manual on this?

09:17:01JdGordonhey Zagor, what do you tihnk about adding a list of warnings which the build table should ignore?
09:19:00ZagorI don't know. are they really that annoying?
09:19:25JdGordonI tihnk they are
09:19:41amiconnBetter don't, imo
09:19:59amiconnOnce they're out of sight, they'll be forgotten
09:20:31amiconnAnd such a filter would most probably also catch real warnings, hiding them

12:01:41linuxstbJdGordon: apps/ could probably benefit from a little reorganisation - "player" and "recorder" aren't helpful...
12:02:09rashercharcell/ and bitmap/ on the other hand seems obvious
12:02:16JdGordoneven then its not perfect
12:02:27JdGordonradio shouldnt really be in recorder
12:02:38linuxstbThen maybe just move it to apps/
12:02:54JdGordonapps/ is overcrowded
12:03:23linuxstbYes, but I think radio belongs there. The playback engine could be moved out though.
12:04:40JdGordonwhat about "gui" for ui elements, "screens" for the different screens, that folder is then split into "charcell", "bitmap" and maybe "touchpad", keep "menus" as is and maybe do a bit more cleanup?

12:32:36pixelmaJdGordon: I remember doing battery_benches on my Ondio
12:32:52Nico_PJdGordon: I'm not using the ata callbacks anymore, but AFAIK they worked well
12:33:10JdGordonwhere you making sure ata_is_active() before buffering?
12:33:16Nico_Pyes
12:33:28pondlifeJdGordon: Could there be another ata callback, called at the start of spinup, not at the end?
12:33:44pondlifeThat would be ideal for buffering
12:34:00JdGordonI might change it to call on spinup instead
12:34:08JdGordonexcept that would delay the thing doing the spinup
12:34:34pondlifeDo the spinup, then callback?
12:34:50pondlifeOr is that what you mean?
12:35:15JdGordonit would delay the read/write if we did the callbacks as soon as the ata thread noticed it was active
12:36:20pondlifeIsn't that a potential side-effect of the current MoB polling anyway?
12:36:43pondlifeNico_P: Actually, crossfade seems fine now
12:36:50JdGordonyeah, thats why mob should be using the callback
12:36:56Nico_Ppondlife: I'm reassured :)
12:37:10pondlifeI do think using the callback is much better than polling.
12:37:19egolostIs ther being any work done on supporting the iriver E10? Is someone working on it?
12:37:30pondlifeNico_P: What was the problem with the callback triggering a buffer?
12:37:39pondlifeSlightly slower to start?
12:37:44Nico_Ppondlife: it was called too late IMO
12:38:07pondlifeThat shouldn't matter, as it's only a "chance to top up", not the critical "low buffer"..

12:38:35 Join [Sur`DataGhost] [0] (i=dataghos@ip3e832ea5.speed.planet.nl)
12:38:45pondlifeBoth situations should trigger buffering to run as fast as possible until the buffer is tull
12:38:59Nico_Pmeaning there was a "gap" of buffering activity between the first track and the following ones
12:39:05pondlifeWhy?
12:39:29pondlifeOnce the buffering thread is off and running, surely it just fills data.
12:39:32Nico_Pbecause for the first track the audio thread requests buffering, but it lets the buffering thread manage the following ones
12:39:49pondlifeTrack boundaries shouln't matter much...
12:40:41pondlifeI'd just see the buffering thread as being kicked into buffering mode, then reading all data it can. And if it doesn't have enough filenames to fill th buffer then it makes a callback to ask for more...
12:41:12pondlifeCertainly you want to read a buffer-full asap to minimise disk spin time.
12:41:29Nico_PI agree, and the callbacks weren't providing that
12:41:37JdGordonhmm... it looks like the callbacks are called every 2s while the disk is spinning but not busy
12:42:16JdGordonexcept the callback code only calls them every 30s
12:42:16Nico_Pcurrently there's a call available to buffering users to request buffering of a particular handle. apart from that the buffering thread manages the level on itself
12:42:38pondlifeSounds good
12:42:41Nico_Ppondlife: and "buffering mode" is when the disk is spinning, hence the polling
12:42:55JdGordonthis code is wrong!
12:43:07pondlifeAh, ok. So it won't necessarily fill all the way if the disk spins down.
12:43:27pondlifeOr will it reset the timer by reading...
12:43:52 Join Frazz [0] (n=Fraser@thelawsons.plus.com)
12:44:11Nico_Pit probably resets the timer by reading, but as soon as filling is complete, ata_sleep() is called
12:45:18pondlifeSo it'll always "trigger itself"?
12:45:27pondlifei.e. until the buffer is full?
12:45:37pondlifeOr would on an idle callback, rather..
12:46:16pixelmawasn't it done so that buffering itself doesn't trigger "activity" and start buffering again so it could end up in an endless buffer loop? (I had that for a short time on my Ondio)
12:46:48pondlifeThat's what I was thinking of. It needs to be buffering under-the-radar, kind of.

12:48:49Nico_P(in SVN)
12:51:41JdGordonwhy is there a ata_spin() at the end of the wps button loop?
12:53:33Nico_Ppondlife: so is the crossfade issue gone?
12:55:45JdGordonok, does this make sense... if ata_spin() is called in a callback, the disk will stay spinning for an extra few seconds to give threads a chance to work on the disk, but the callbacks will not be called again untill the next time the disk is spun up (i.e after then next spindown) ?

12:57:45micolsand midi says something about buffer
12:57:45preglowno, i don't get that
12:58:12micolsi checked System and debug information
12:58:26micolsthe pcm or whatever is at top gets filled
12:58:32micolsthen the pitch noises sound
12:58:46micolsbuffer is always half filled or so (the one at the bottom of debug screen)
12:58:53pixelmamidiplay gives that on all portalplayer devices because decoding can't keep yet
12:59:02pixelma+up
12:59:09micolsyep ive read that midi still is unstable
12:59:12micolsbut mp3 should work
12:59:20micolsflac is even worse.. it plays for 1 second
12:59:30micolsi got fat32 fs on it
12:59:49micolsflac shouldnt be working either i know.. but mp3 should :-)
13:00
13:00:30Nico_Ppondlife: I realised yesterday evening that the 1k binsize increase from MoB is mostly due to the debugging screen :)
13:01:06pixelmamicols: flac should work fine, (mp3) too. I could imagine that you have one of the problematic Nanos.
13:01:07amiconnmicols: Flac should work very well. It's a very efficient decoder
13:03:10micolsokay.. it just stops and skips to my mp3s instead
13:03:20micolsand it got high pitched noises even more than the mp3s
13:03:43pregloware you using the eq?
13:03:58micolsyes i tried using the eq at first then i thought it was the one causing trouble
13:04:08micolsi tried stereo separation and bass reducing by -6db
13:04:12micolsstereosep 140%
13:04:20micolsbut then i did reset it to 100% and 0db
13:04:28micolsstill got the trouble

13:04:44preglowpixelma: do problematic nanos make high-pitched noises, though?
13:04:57micolsone more thing, my cpu speed skips between 30 and 60mhz all the time!
13:05:04preglowi thought micols 80, you mean
13:05:05micolsthat might be the cause
13:05:08preglowhehh
13:05:09micolsyes 40 and 80
13:05:10micols:)
13:05:13preglowmicols: that's normal
13:05:23pixelmapreglow: there were reports of faulty mp3 playback at least as one of the symptoms
13:05:24micolsisnt that making it too slow to play the mp3?
13:05:36micolsor at least too slow to play flac
13:05:42micolsi guess it needs full speed for that
13:05:49preglowmicols: nah, we boost the frequency temporarily when we need more juice
13:05:52pondlifeNico_P: Could you combine the debugging screen with the audio one? Or make it debug builds only?
13:05:53micolsthe funny thing is that movie playback is fluent..
13:05:54preglowmicols: flac is waay faster then mp3
13:06:03micolsmpgs with sound seems to be fluent
13:06:08Nico_Ppondlife: I'll probably combine the two screens

13:08:12preglowi think you have one of those troublesome nanos, yes
13:08:12micolsi thought it could be because the fadein/out plugin

13:08:38preglowand we don't really know why yet
13:08:49preglowwe _think_ it might come from overheating

17:33:57preglown1s: afaik, yes, yes, and only one
17:34:33preglowit's pretty much intended exactly for what i did, adjusting the numerical range up or down to get free clipping, so it's pretty limited

17:34:47preglown1s: yep
17:35:03n1shmmm, might be useful
17:35:26preglown1s: it's important to remember the accumulator is 40 bits, so shifting does never overflow anything
17:35:42preglowanswer can be max 33 bits after shift

20:40:42preglowamiconn: could you please just upload the resulting speex.codec some place so i don't have to recompile binutils?
20:40:53lostlogicscratch taht, broke flac, will try later.
20:40:56amiconnI've built for x5
20:41:03amiconnYou need h1x0?

20:48:38Calcipherwell IIRC someone mentioned being able to generate voice files under cygwin
20:49:22LloreanCygwin is basically like a replacement command prompt. It's still more or less windows, it just lets you carry out commands in a linux style
20:50:01Calcipherwell, then I atleast would like to have access to my NTFS volumes under the vmware session, is that possible?

21:46:43Lloreanmeoblast001: Everyone who's interested can help build the code. That's the whole point. There's a list of people who decide what goes in or not, but feature requests are often filled by random people who are interested in helping out, and probably are more often because the people who have direct access are usually working on bugs or their own ideas.

21:54:59amiconnbertrik: Yes, but it's actually slower than not using it
21:55:00Calcipherhm, ok thanks
21:55:12n1sNico_P: my flac playlist has rebuffered without pauses twice now :-) however I can't tell how close we are to buffer underrun because the screen seems to stop updating when the diskreading starts but I estimate something like 1-2 seconds of compressed audio left...

21:56:39n1samiconn: yes, in svn it actually underruns sometimes
21:57:11n1sLlorean: yup I even put that bug in the tracker last year :-)
21:57:23amiconnI don't expect this to be part of MoB; and the fact that MoB doesn't underrun says something about it...
21:57:33CalcipherI tried using rbutil to install the bootloader, it said it couldn't find any sansas, yet it was able to update my install of rb
21:57:34amiconnBut the watermark still needs to be raised then
21:57:55Lloreanamiconn: Well, if MoB buffered just a little bit faster then it wouldn't underrun too, right?
21:58:00n1sNico_P: can't get it to lock up by skipping like a madman anymore either
21:58:03amiconnLlorean: Yup
21:58:08LloreanEven if it "says something" it might not be a *bad* something ;)
21:58:23amiconnBut 1..2 seconds is too low to reliably avoid underruns
21:58:27LloreanYeah
21:58:33amiconnI didn't say that it's bad...
21:58:48n1sbut when skipping a lot of tracks it takes several seconds for the wps to update so it is very difficult to know how far you went in the playlist
21:58:58LloreanSorry, the phrase "it says something about Noun" usually has negative connotations around here at least. Misinterpretation by me.
21:59:09amiconnDid someone compare buffering times with svn vs. MoB and a demanding codec?
21:59:24LloreanIs there any way to determine the maximum bitrate of a FLAC file?
21:59:39LloreanOr are you stuck with the average?

22:48:27nomeland incrementing the frequency in 0.05 MHz steps causes the actual frequency to go way off...for instance 94.7, 76.0, 89.2, 82.5 instead of 98.5, 98.55, 98.6, etc.
22:49:24kkurbjun_yes, not much of a display, just 2 lines of text really.. it is a bitmap lcd driver though

22:56:28kkurbjun_amiconn: are you thinking about getting an m:robe 500? :)
22:57:03amiconnnah
22:57:20amiconnI just wondered about the remote bitmap format definitions in configure
22:57:53amiconnAnd m:robe 500 is touchscreen, so a big no-no for me
22:58:35LloreanThe m:robe has a camera
22:58:36Llorean?
22:58:51kkurbjun_oh, I gotcha, you don't /have/ to use the touch screen with the remote though. Why don't you like the idea of a touchscreen player?

23:01:49kkurbjun_especially with a 640x480 screen, you can see so many items at once and you don't have to scroll through all of them to pick one

23:03:16kkurbjun_hmm, well I can't really argue with your preferences can I :)?
23:03:17webguest32I have a question, is it possible playing GB or GBC while music is playing simulteniously?
23:03:39webguest32i mean playing GB GBC games....(plug ins )
23:03:40kkurbjun_the m:robe would be a terrible player given those requirements

23:04:46kkurbjun_the transflective screens are the ones that show in the sun well?
23:04:56kkurbjun_webguest32: only on the gigabeat
23:05:20kkurbjun_none of the other players support playing music with gameboy games
23:05:48amiconnAnd just 20GB is a bit small for a HDD based player today...
23:05:52*amiconn would expect 100GB+
23:06:34 Quit Ebert ()
23:06:35amiconnkkurbjun_: Yes, transflective screens are readable with just ambient light. All monochrome/ greyscale LCDs are, but most colour LCDs are not
23:06:52amiconnThe only exceptions among the rockbox targets being the iPod Video and Nano
23:07:50n1sNico_P: from what I can see, MoB seems solid now :-)

23:08:53 Quit webguest32 ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
23:08:55kkurbjun_I enjoy the target if nothing else for the difference in the user interface from anything else we support right now.. JdGordon's done all of the work for the touchscreen so far with Cat's existing code.
23:09:28moosNico_P, n1s: just 20 minutes of use, but that seems stable enough for normal uses and svn imho
23:09:49kkurbjun_the DSP part is interesting as well - it's a shame the tools for it aren't free (or the docs)
23:09:50*Nico_P has been using MoB for everyday use for days now
23:10:14moosgo for commit then ;)
23:10:34LloreanBut make sure you have plenty of time to fix red on any targets you may not have tested on. ;)
23:10:48mooshehe :)
23:11:05Nico_PLlorean: indeed. I've tested a bit and I hop to limit the red
23:11:28moosNico_P: don't be chicken :P
23:11:37n1sNico_P: I vote for a commit too, there will always be bugs we missed but none too big it would think
23:11:41LloreanIt seems likely there won't be much, but things aren't as predictable as they should be.

23:16:59Nico_PLlorean: good idea
23:17:23lostlogicNico_P: the new combined buffering screen is beautiful... and costs 2% boost ratio in my test track compared tot he old :D

23:17:49lostlogicgood thing debug _performance_ is a critical measure :-D
23:17:57Nico_Pmaybe I should reduce it a bit.... I'm used to my gigabeat and sometimes forget such considerations
