00:03:07n1skri: what is it that doesn't work?
00:03:18linuxstb_kri: Obvious question, but is it definitely an ipod video, not an ipod classic?
00:03:45kriyeah i defently orderd video because i didnt want classic
00:03:58n1skri: it doesn't start at all or rockbox doesn't strt?

00:12:33Zagoryeah, google (well, I guess the IRS) requires that we fill out a W8BEN tax form. and to do that, we need to fill out a W7 form and apply for a TIN number... ain't bureaucracy great!
00:13:17jhMikeS:_)
00:13:18*linuxstb blames saratoga ;)
00:13:19n1sat least it makes sure a lot of people have jobs :-)
00:14:22linuxstbZagor: So you'll receive the money in about 2010?
00:15:07krik. more stupid question here. the text is very small. can i rezise it?
00:15:09Zagoryeah that's another thing. they want an address to mail the check. a CHECK??? what is this, 1974?
00:15:47linuxstbkri: Did you install the fonts package? (i.e. unzip rockbox-fonts.zip to your ipod)
00:16:10peturZagor: in the US, it is 1984 ;)
00:16:17Zagorhehe
00:17:09saratogafor some reason the checks are very popular in the US
00:17:18saratogai have no idea why
00:17:53saratogaanyway, i suspect you'd have to deal with the IRS anyway, since goolge is in the US
00:18:32Zagoractually if you have no us activity (mentors or students) you can just sign a single google form and be done with it.
00:19:41Zagorbut I guess banning US people would be considered ... unfriendly :)

00:22:50fm2Is there any system in error codes in buffering API? I think it'snot good that just numbers (e.g. -2) are used and not constants.
00:23:21fm2I mean named constants. Which would make reading and maintaining code easier.
00:24:03peturfm2: then do not look at disk.c/file.c/fat.c/... ;)

00:27:59fm2n1s: but for that to be possible, a system must exist in the codes. Does it? Does anybody know?
00:28:06amiconnThe numbers are constructed in a logical way. I would seriously dislike named errors for stuff that's not normally user visible
00:28:11jhMikeShow bout assigning ranges to subsystems?

00:28:22amiconnIt would just be bloat. This isn't Windows...
00:28:27jhMikeSamiconn: bloat?
00:28:30n1sfm2: Nico_P is the person to ask
00:28:52jhMikeSintegers are bloat?
00:28:56fm2amiconn: but if I see "if (rc == -2)" I ask what -2 means
00:29:16amiconnfm2: The error numbers are (or are meant to be; not sure whether the playback stuff adheres to these rules) providing a backtrace
00:29:25peturjhMikeS: he means the 0x80408020 stuff the MS uses
00:29:26jhMikeSfm2: I agree. Only certain select things need strings but the source could be nicer with #define constants
00:30:27fm2Constants would make code more readable and would also enforce (and ensure) some discipline and system in error codes
00:30:38amiconnEach function that returns an error due to a downlevel function failing returns both its own error and the downlevel function's error code, multiplied by 10
00:30:38ZagorI think we should simply assign a US person to recieve the money and put them in the paypal account. this tax form business is silly.
00:31:01amiconnAll error codes are negative, and this system allows for 9 different error codes per function
00:31:05jhMikeSpetur: sure, and that would also help code be more robust sine you'd have some idea what's going on.
00:31:47linuxstbZagor: Wouldn't that require the US person to do tax things?
00:32:38jhMikeSI think the system now is awful and I'd never use that myself. At least common errors would have defined constants too. ERROR_DISK_FULL :)
00:32:41Zagorlinuxstb: not as I understand it: http://groups.google.com/group/google-summer-of-code-mentors-list/web/taxguide
00:32:52kriso what happend with the music that was on? have i owerwrite it? i think not, there is used space...
00:33:08fm2 amiconn: I don't quite like this approach but if it's the way the things are done in RB then Ok. The approach mixes up levels. Besides, it's only usable if you know the 'deepness' of the function call.
00:34:12Zagorfm2: mixes levels?
00:34:13jhMikeSnot to mention FILE_NOT_FOUND or something is just that no matter what system returns it
00:34:58fm2Zagor: propagating error code from a lower level to a higher level where it can't (and shouldn't) be interpreted anymore
00:35:47Zagorfm2: the fact that users can sometimes see these codes has helped us a lot in the past
00:35:50jhMikeSthe e200 ata driver was a real treat for the current approach
00:35:51amiconnI didn't invent this system, but I this it makes very much sense
00:36:04amiconn*I think
00:36:45ZagorjhMikeS: file not found isn't exactly what the purpose of these error codes is for
00:36:53amiconn(just that I would have chosen base 16 instead of base 10, and then displayed the error code in hex. << 4 is cheaper than * 10
00:37:04fm2jhMikeS: but I think each subsystem should have its own "error code domain", with different subsystems possibly having same values. I.e. the values don't necessarilyhave to be globally unique
00:37:26jhMikeSit could be...and we could pack it as hex so more codes can be used...if displayed, a small decoding function would be nothing
00:38:18amiconnfm2: The advantage of the current system is that it provides a backtrace. With unique error codes per system, you wouldn't have that anymore
00:38:54fm2jhMikeS: but if you have e.g. -52 how do you know which func added 5 and which 2? In order to interpret the value you have to know the call stack.
00:39:08jhMikeSI guess each has it's own advantage and I like aspect of both approaches...how to have the cake and eat it too?
00:39:29fm2amiconn: 52 does not provide the call stack IMHO
00:40:00krii moved the 'music' folder to the root for rockbox. and now i loaded the database in the ipod, is that right?
00:40:00amiconnfm2: You check the function which produced the error code, and then check which place in it generated -2. Then you check what call it did before that. This function generated -5
00:40:32kriso i just move the music now to the folder? or?
00:40:46n1samiconn: if the errors are just #defined constants we could still print the number to get the backtrace but the code could be like if(ret == ERROR_FOO)
00:41:04Zagorn1s: but that wouldn't help us find bugs
00:41:31n1sZagor: no but it makes the code easier to read which I believe was the argument for
00:41:34fm2amiconn: correct. What I meant is the return value alone does not provide the call stack, it has to be found out manually (as you described)
00:41:35jhMikeSBugs? There's bugs? :)
00:41:58Zagorn1s: the error code is there for finding bugs, not presenting pretty strings to users.
00:42:11fm2Zagor: I think easy to read code is 50% to bug free code since bugs can be spotted easier
00:42:25jhMikeSI've had use for handling some things the other way...and being able to return errors to show splashes in higher level code rather than lower.
00:42:51Zagorfm2: what does easy to read code has to do with this?
00:43:17 Quit darkless (Connection timed out)
00:43:31Zagorthe point is you know what went wrong in every step of the call chain. you will never get that with "pretty" error codes.
00:43:41n1sZagor: I don' t mean that we should display them just #define the numbers we use to identifiers that say something so I don't have to read hundreds of lines of code to find out what an error means
00:43:55fm2Zagor: you can easily write -1 instead of -2 in "if". And that's hard to notice. But if you have named (per #define) consts, you'll see it
00:43:57jhMikeSbut a thread could save an error code in TLS
00:44:16Zagorfm2: these values are not checked. only (if <0)
00:44:31fm2n1s: exactly my thoughts. I'm not proposing displaying errors as strings
00:44:48Zagorn1s: sure it could be nice. but rather a heavy load to maintain.
00:45:07n1sZagor: fair enough :)
00:45:08fm2Zagor: I've seen some places with "if (xxx == -2)"
00:45:09jhMikeSnah
00:46:18fm2Zagor: just "xxx < 0" would be ok (yes/no logic), but if concrete values are checked I refer named consts
00:46:27fm2*prefer
00:46:29Zagorfm2: I bet there are a few places, but that's not the base of the concept
00:46:34jhMikeSfm2: yeah, I hate that. some errno thing would be nice is many situation as a supplement to if (retval < 0)

00:47:17fm2jhMikeS: that I did't want to say. I disagree in this point.
00:47:20Zagorchecking specific values is really flirting with bugs
00:47:46jhMikeSfm2: in my point?
00:48:06fm2jhMikeS: yes, "some errno as a supplement"

00:51:06linuxstbamiconn: Do you know if there are any examples in Rockbox of two different devices (with different CPUs) using the same LCD controller, and sharing a driver?
00:51:54amiconnNo, and most often it wouldn't make sense
00:52:18amiconnE.g. the H300 and the (type 1) Color and the Nano have the same lcd controller

00:53:10amiconnAnd the same was also true for the (dropped) gmini port - it had SSD1815 like the recorder
00:53:27amiconnBack then, it actually *was* a single driver, but that was before target tree
00:53:39jhMikeSargh...disconnect...and "not thread safe"...coming from your's truly. lol.

00:54:37amiconnIf there's something controller specific that can be factored out, and it's more than just a few lines, we could introduce firmware/drivers/lcd
00:55:12amiconnBut most often the hookup is so different that there isn't much that could be shared
00:55:15krilol.
00:55:22krimy new ipod is broke. :(
00:55:45amiconnEven H1x0 and M5 do *not* share a driver - and they *do* have the same cpu, and the same lcd controller
00:56:05amiconn(well, almost same cpu)
00:56:20linuxstbamiconn: For my MP3/DAB player, the only differences with the Archos SSD1815 driver are lcd_device_init(), lcd_write_command() and lcd_write_data(). But that doesn't leave very much anyway, so maybe just copy and paste is easier.
00:57:28amiconnI bet lcd_default_contrast() is also different...
00:57:37linuxstbYes, forgot that...
00:57:52amiconnOh, and the flip stuff too - unless your target is also 112x64
00:58:01linuxstbMy current implementation is a copy of the driver in my player's target-tree.
00:58:04amiconnOtherwise the xoffset will be different
00:58:16linuxstbThe xoffset is just defined as 132-LCD_WIDTH
00:58:18amiconn(the controller is 132x64)
00:58:28linuxstbMy width is 128
00:58:42amiconnAh, yes
01:00
01:00:42amiconnIf you compare lcd-h100.c and lcd-m5.c, you'll notice that they're also mostly c&p
01:00:43 Quit saratoga ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
01:00:50jhMikeSamiconn: somehow we manage to pull it off for tuners. I can see a similar way for lcd.
01:01:12linuxstbI think I'll just keep it separate as well, at least for now.
01:01:20amiconnThe init sequence is different, and there are some more due to different gpio pins and different hookup of the lcd controller's A0 bit
01:01:27keanurasher, around?
01:01:37rasherkeanu: yeah
01:02:01rasherAnd I'd appreciate it if you'd leave me a message other than "around".. Just ask your question next time.
01:02:05amiconn(on H1x0 it's on gpio while on M5 it's on the coldfire's A1 bit)
01:02:32keanurasher, is there anything in the Makefile that needs to be changed, other than taking out "-g" to reduce the sim file size?
01:03:20rasherkeanu: I left you a message in the logs..
01:03:44keanurasher, oh, ok. I'll look back through them

01:06:30rasherRemoving -g helps a bit, but stripping removes even more
01:06:45linuxstbamiconn: On a slightly different subject, I've been helping TMM try to figure out the LCD driver in his iaudio 7 (a 160x128 colour LCD), and the code in the original firmware we think is the lcd driver does something which strikes me as strange - it enables/disables a GPIO pin before/after writing to a register in the lcd controller. Have you seen that in other LCD drivers?
01:07:05amiconnI just mentioned one... H1x0
01:09:02 Quit kri ("quit")
01:09:04amiconnThe Epson controller's A0 bit selects control or data. On H1x0 it's hooked to gpio.
01:09:49linuxstbThanks. grep missed it as it's in the asm file...

01:10:10TMMthat makes sense
01:11:00linuxstbTMM: So I'm now willing to bet money we've found the lcd driver - you just need to implement it now ;)
01:11:30amiconnIt's a bit nasty - and one of the spots where I ran into problems wrt buffered writes. Cowon's choise to use an actuall address bit on M5 is definitely the better one

01:15:45*n1s finds it interesting/annoying that vorbis performance can vary quite a lot with changes in the core that don't affect codecs at all...
01:16:38n1sright after tomal's latest optimization i got 341% realtime on my testfile, 3 days ago 319, today 326...

01:18:45amiconnNot all codecs would suffer from this. Even those which potentially do wouldn't change their performance in a consistent way

01:19:41jhMikeSthe performance difference was about 28% boost to %12 boost or so (no test_codec then)
01:19:42amiconnIt's just that one time critical function which resides in dram calls another one, which is also in dram. If they (partially) map to the same cache line(s), one throws the other out of the cache
01:20:05n1samiconn: is there anyway to predict/benefit from it without having to run everything through an emulator?
01:20:13amiconnThe coldfire instruction cache is direct mapped, so this effect is often visible, unlike on PP, where the cache is set associative

01:20:42jhMikeSn1s: yes, align code is still there
01:21:09amiconnThe only way to strictly avoid this is to put all time critical functions in iram - but iram is more important for data
01:21:32n1samiconn, jhMikeS: any idea which function is the culprit or how to find out which one it is?
01:21:51kriplease, it worked and i listen to the ipod and it stoped, flashing 'undefined instruction at [nr] (x)' and its there i can't do nothing. can't restart the ipod, turn it off, or load it on the comp, what to to? is it broke?

01:22:30krinothing happen
01:22:33amiconnn1s: If you have any idea which functions are time critical, and know all the functions it calls, or is called from, you can check the map file

01:22:58amiconnBut doing this is rather difficult...
01:23:06krii can hold it for a min
01:23:29n1samiconn: I guess I will have to dig a bit in the code to see what it calls often and go from there then...
01:23:45linuxstbkri: Then you're doing it wrong... Press MENU and SELECT (the centre button) together and hold them down for about 5 seconds.
01:23:59amiconnYou might find out by using profiling - if you can get that to work

01:34:35JdGordon:) well its a start.. whats the problem?
01:34:49kkurbjunand I have a workaround, but I'm afraid that it might just be masking a larger problem
01:35:12kkurbjunin list.c on line 315 there's a buffer defined
01:35:22kkurbjunif you move it out of the function as a global the lists will work

01:41:44kkurbjunnone of that works for me
01:41:59JdGordonthey all end up getting drawn by the same code in list.c
01:42:04kkurbjunhmm
01:42:40kkurbjunI think it's a problem in the option_get_valuestring flow, but I don't know why it would only be showing in hardware
01:43:13kkurbjunthe callback_get_item_name for settings that is
01:43:31linuxstbamiconn: http://www.pastebin.ca/752039 contains what we think is the lcd init sequence for the iaudio 7, and I was wondering if you recognised it. The LCD is 160x128 and advertised as 18-bit colour.

01:46:25TMMwow, cool
01:46:36TMMso, it was pointless to RE this then? :)
01:47:18linuxstbYou had to RE it to discover the controller...

01:53:19TMMO, awesome
01:53:20linuxstbIs there a datasheet in the wiki?

01:53:28jhMikeSyup
01:53:33TMMso, we 'just' have to port it over? :)
01:53:36jhMikeSthe e200 uses that too

01:55:57 Quit japc (Remote closed the connection)
01:56:07jhMikeSooh, that reminds me, theres a delay in the e200 that's probably not required now
01:57:09kkurbjunhmm, works for me - I have to go now though, I'll look into it more later
01:57:57amiconnTMM: Looks like there is a typo in your init...
01:58:13TMMamiconn: only one?
01:58:23amiconn0x34 near the end of lcd init 2 should probably be 0x43
01:58:43TMMI thought I had fixed tat
01:59:02TMMI have fixed that
01:59:05TMMthat's an old paste :)
01:59:47linuxstbTMM: But this probably means you don't have to RE the lcd_update functions - just copy them from elsewhere in Rockbox.
02:00
02:00:21TMMhurrah! :)
02:00:29TMMe200
02:01:03amiconnPerhaps not
02:01:10amiconnThe e200 does some dma trickery
02:01:44amiconnI'm not sure how that works, and it probably depends on how the controller is hooked up
02:02:12jhMikeStrickery? running DMA while trying to send commands would scramble them.
02:02:34jhMikeSIt's in ram write mode normally and uses HWM
02:02:41linuxstbThe H300 is also using DMA...
02:02:56amiconnHmm, but in a different way.
02:03:05TMMwell, datasheet is nice :)
02:03:09jhMikeSbut it's not a memmapped framebuffer
02:03:42amiconnjhMikeS: Does the e200 use the PP's dma engine for the lcd updates?
02:03:51jhMikeSnot really memmapped, but in-memory. the display is constantly refreshed from RAM
02:04:12jhMikeSamiconn: A special one similar to the controller on gigabeat
02:04:34amiconnHmm, and that pays off? Constant ram access costs bandwidth, and power...
02:05:23jhMikeSnot for these designs apparently
02:05:34amiconnTMM: The lcd_write_reg() suggests that the hookup uses the 9 bit interface mode

02:07:11jhMikeSamiconn: that is rather annoying re: the color depth :)
02:07:16linuxstbn1s: Good question - we should probably have some guidance for that...
02:08:03amiconnI think 100 times per second is about right - once per tick

02:09:00jhMikeSI'd do more even...to speed thread response elsewhere. mostly it will just return to the codec immediately.
02:09:29n1sok, just checking :-) I remember the midiplayer yields when the buffer is full which could take about 0.4 seconds to fill :-) I guess that will change when it's turned into a codec
02:09:56amiconnlinuxstb: The ipl (and rockbox) bcm driver is definitely based on the rom code, not full OF code
02:09:58jhMikeSfor the buffer to fill?
02:10:18amiconnThat magic constant (0xfffa0005) appears several times in the rom, but nowhere in the OF
02:11:19 Quit petur ("Zzzzz")
02:11:20n1sjhMikeS: the buffer is that long so whenever it throws a buffer miss it took longer than 0.4 doesn't happen very often now but it can't yield much more than 4-5 times a second
02:12:07linuxstbamiconn: My guess is that the Broadcom chip is running different firmware when the OF is running, so it wouldn't surprise me if the LCD API is completely different - does your research agree with that?
02:12:09jhMikeSthat's massive starvation for the system. the yields are very fast.
02:12:24amiconnlinuxstb: So far it looks like that, yes
02:14:29*jhMikeS thinks it's telling that his favorite targets to listen to use the SW tone controls
02:14:37linuxstbAttempting to load the "OF" broadcom firmware could be interesting...
02:15:55*jhMikeS wants to be able to use SW tone controls whether or not HW ones are present
02:16:55amiconnlinuxstb: That would first require to find out how the bcm on-disk firmware is stored, how it's supposed to be loaded into the chip, and run
02:17:13linuxstbamiconn: DId you miss my reply earlier? It's simply a FAT16 filesystem.
02:17:36amiconnYes, but that doesn't tell anything about how the image is loaded
02:17:41linuxstbBut that doesn't answer the second question - how to transfer it..
02:18:11linuxstbI'm not saying it's simple ;)
02:18:16amiconnIs it encrypted or scrambled? Is there some header that splits the image into blocks which need to be loaded at different addresses?

04:01:39beetlejuicedoes anybody know an alternate way to commit the database on boot up? my 20gig iriver h10 won't commit the database, and as a result is continually freezing and not allowing me to access the database at all. I have tried re-installing rockbox, twice, but to no avail.
04:02:54CtcpVersion from freenode-connect!freenode@freenode/bot/connect
04:03:03karashataI'm not aware of any, myself... do you have any free space on the drive for the database to be commited to?
04:03:19beetlejuiceoh, I don't know. good iead
04:03:41beetlejuice6.55gig free
04:03:51karashatathat's way more than enough...
04:03:59beetlejuicemy thoughs exactly
04:04:03karashataI couldn't tell you why it's not, then
04:04:33beetlejuiceit was working before, but after I finished adding more music, it stopped
04:04:53karashataI don't use the database, myself
04:04:57 Quit rvvs89 (Connection timed out)
04:05:06beetlejuicejust the file browser?
04:05:10karashataI have folders structured how I want, and playlists that I can use
04:05:14karashatayeah
04:05:55beetlejuiceyeah, okay. the only problem is, because the database won't commit, there are a whole heap of problems actually playing songs
04:06:12karashataeven out of the file browser?
04:06:46beetlejuiceyeah, it'll play that dir, but when it tries to skip to the next one, it throws an error
04:07:22karashatahmm, that sounds unusual...
04:07:30beetlejuiceyep
04:07:36karashatadoesn't sound like something the database should affect, either
04:08:12karashataare you skipping to the next directory on the file tree, or are you using the random directory skip?
04:08:52beetlejuiceand another related thing, whenm I do try to enter the database, it tells me that it's not initialised, when I ask it to, to tells me its initialising, but does nothing
04:08:58beetlejuiceumm... I think its on random
04:08:59 Join billenium [0] (n=billeniu@c-69-249-243-110.hsd1.pa.comcast.net)
04:09:50beetlejuiceyeah, it was on random
04:09:55beetlejuiceI've turned it off
04:10:08karashatahmm, the random skip should, at least from my experience, skip to the next directory in the tree unless you've run the random-folder-advance plugin...
04:10:24karashataotherwise, I don't know
04:10:46beetlejuiceno random folderadvance plugin on thos thing
04:10:53beetlejuicebummer, thanks for the help
04:11:06karashatayour welcome
04:11:19beetlejuicemabye: are there specific characters that throw the database out?
04:11:42beetlejuiceI copied the files from an ipod, so mabye that's It...
04:12:06karashataI wouldn't know, none of my files have any characters in the tags that aren't standard english characters

04:38:24karashatapsycho_maniac: I thought it lasted longer, myself
04:38:51karashatathough, I haven't looked closely at the runtime page in the wiki, since I don't care much about the iPods...
04:39:54billeniumCan anyone give me Ubuntu Cygwin help?
04:41:25 Quit midgey ()
04:41:28psycho_maniacthe wiki says that my ipod (the 80gig) lasts about 10 hours.
04:42:23karashata...maybe the wiki needs updating..?
04:43:02psycho_maniachmmm that could be.
04:43:20karashataor maybe the people getting that kind of battery life are being very conservative, listening at really low volumes, using a minimal WPS, not turning the backlight on very often at all...
04:43:50karashataI tend to get about 11, maybe 11.5 hours with my H10 20GB
04:44:41psycho_maniacactually in the 2nd square (dont know the name) its under 90-10% runtime its 8h 50min
04:46:25karashatahmm...
04:46:29karashata*shrugs*
04:46:46psycho_maniacbut 3 hours sounds pretty low.
04:47:20karashata3 hours seems lower than normal, the last time I looked, the lowest average tended to be 6, maybe 5, hours...
04:47:33psycho_maniaccorrect.

05:34:59psycho_maniacAndrewJ you partially deaf?
05:35:13AndrewJmaybe.... i listen to very load music :D
05:35:21AndrewJno im not
05:35:22BHSPitLappypsycho_maniac, he's going for it
05:35:31AndrewJgetting there
05:35:50Soappsycho_maniac: I made the 90-10% runtime column because it is really the only half-way reliable part of a LiIon's discharge.
05:36:33BHSPitLappyhe's trying to become one of the idiots who play their headphones so loud the whole class/bus/room can hear them clearly
05:36:43SoapThe first 10% of the discharge is very non-linear and varies greatly depending on charging conditions, and the last 10% is not reliably recorded (esp on 64MB models) because of the way battery_bench writes data.
05:37:18SoapSo, if you want to compare runtimes betweeen different testers you should use the 90-10 number, not the total.
05:37:43psycho_maniacthank you
05:37:59SoapThat being said - none of the numbers are worth jack squat if the condition of the battery is not know, preferably by doing a test with the original firmware.
05:38:29psycho_maniacSoap: could you maybe explain what this means: "The iPod Video has the HW version at a different address in ROM". and what advantages this does? thats the newest commit in svn.
05:40:33Soapthey found where Apple stores the hardware revision string for the 5th and 5.5th generation iPods. It was not at the same address as (all?) the previous generations. This will allow Rockbox to more reliably tell if it is running on a 5 or on a 5.5. What that info is being used for I can say - I can only ASSume the whole large sector issue with the 5.5 80B.

11:00:44BigBambiOh, so after the splash you still see your music?
11:01:24[1]sebmp3
11:01:31amiconnThe splash is just the progress display of the database
11:01:51BigBambiI thought you meant it found 0 files when they were there
11:01:53amiconnSeems that it disappears really fast for you
11:01:58*BigBambi doesn't use the database
11:02:04[1]sebyes
11:02:22pixelmaand that confused me on my Ondio too when seeing it the first time
11:02:23amiconnSo you'll just see the '0 files found' flashing by, then it disappears
11:02:28BigBambiIn that case don't worry, it just finishes the search before the splash is updated
11:02:37BigBambiOr something :)
11:02:40[1]sebi didnt notice it before i removed battery
11:02:51[1]sebweird
11:03:18bertrikremoved the battery, what for?
11:03:29[1]sebrockbox freezed entirely
11:03:41bertrikif it hangs, you can just press off button for 15 seconds and it will turn off too
11:04:13bertrikthat is a hardware poweroff, so it should work even if software is completely frozen, IIRC
11:04:14BigBambiOr sometimes even longer I've heard
11:04:27[1]seb15? ok, didnt know
11:04:43BigBambiPeople have reported up to 30s being necessary
11:05:17[1]sebso, i guess i have to get used to the splash...
11:05:29BigBambiOr fix it

11:08:03bertriki've seen it hang on normal playback too, but not easily reproducible
11:08:18BigBambihmmmm
11:08:30bertriki can get my sansa really confused by switching between mp3 and ogg, very reproducibly

11:11:22BigBambiwell, 15338 is the latest, so I guess check flyspray or grap Nico_P when he is here
11:14:18bertriksvn 15305 still works, 15307 doesn't, 15306 was the mob commit ....

11:41:12BigBambiCould you make a list if you find stuff and pop it on flyspray?
11:41:54[1]sebme?
11:42:01BigBambieither :)
11:42:22pixelmaI think some things aren't taken out because they are expected to be available soon(ish). I mean that especially for the c200 and some plugins for example
11:42:34BigBambiYep
11:42:46BigBambiBut I don't think dircache and flash is one is it?
11:43:02coozin c200 manual virtual keybord section if empty
11:43:35BigBambic200 is quite a new port, so it is more expected that the manual needs a little more work
11:43:38cooztrick with rec button to delete took me a while to firure out
11:44:24pixelmaafaik dircache on flash only makes sense for auto-updating the database. The problems with Sansa is that the current implementation of dircashe doesn't work well with multi-volume that's why it is disabled

11:45:21pixelmacooz: I'm aware of this. I wanted to create a better button mapping for the virtual keyboard and then update the manual with it
11:45:22Slasheripixelma: auto-updating on flash targets should work now without dircache
11:45:23BigBambiAh OK - is the preferred solution though to allow auto-update (isn't it just removal of items?) without dircache, no matter how slow this makes it
11:45:32BigBambiSlasheri: I knew it!
11:45:44Slasheri:)
11:46:22pixelmaSlasheri: thought it was slow then
11:46:34BigBambiSo I guess that dircache is unlikely soon to extend to the E200?
11:46:39Slasheripixelma: on flash it shouldn't be slow, however i have no way to test that
11:46:42coozpixelma: it's not bad atm, just volume buttons could have some different functions
11:46:53BigBambiIn which case it might be better to remove the section on it from the manual
11:47:05*BigBambi takes a first look at the manual source
11:47:24Slasherii have had in mind to commit that multi-volume patch for dircache

13:13:30linuxstbpreglow: I've looked at that WMA file, and the ASF parser seems to be working as it should. But there are two issues - 1) Because the comment tag is so big, the metadata buffer for that track is full before it reads the later tags in the file, so they're skipped. 2) The "show track info" screen seems to dislike long comments.
13:14:40preglowlinuxstb: sounds like a similar issue we had with wav

13:16:39linuxstbit's not metadata we don't want (we want comments), it's just that the comment dominates...
13:17:07preglowwell, is that a problem?
13:17:14preglowespecially with mob, we should be fine, right?
13:17:34linuxstbIt's not a problem for Rockbox (it's just skipped), but this WMA file also contains an id3v2 tag embedded as an ASF tag... The id3v2 tag even includes an embedded jpeg ;)
13:17:42preglowahahaha
13:17:43preglowsweet lord
13:20:19linuxstbI guess a sensible thing to do would be to limit the size of comment tags that we read - to ensure that some space is left for later tags. I don't think a 629 character comment is reasonable...
13:20:38jumpatrainlinuxstb these is what my cue files looked like and rb couldnt figure it out http://pastebin.ca/752418
13:21:00linuxstbIn fact, this file has comments longer than 629 chars, Rockbox truncates them to 629.
13:21:45preglowlinuxstb: space for later tags? don't we have around 32 megs of tag space for most targets now? :D
13:22:05amiconnBagder_: Looks like we have a hung build...
13:22:18linuxstbjumpatrain: You're trying to use that cuefile in Rockbox?
13:22:45jumpatrainlinuxstb right.
13:23:36linuxstbpreglow: I don't think that's exploited yet - we're still using the same metadata struct, but it's now in the audio buffer, rather than a static array. I don't think it has a variable size.
13:23:50linuxstbjumpatrain: Then why are you asking about APE tags?
13:24:44jumpatrainthat was a mistake, i apologize.

13:41:44Nico_Plinuxstb: yes. I didn't expect to have to use one for the previous track, but otherwise it wasn't possible to make the progressbar continue after track change
13:41:54Nico_Plinuxstb: what's the problem with long tags?
13:42:26[1]sebthx
13:42:30linuxstbIIUC, the problem is that Rockbox is still using a fixed-sized buffer for metadata - the mp3entry struct.
13:42:59linuxstbSo if this buffer becomes full (e.g. with a long comment tag), later tags in the file are skipped.
13:43:12PaulJamhmm, was tere a recent cahnge that could cause that the genre tag for m4a files doesn't work anymore? with a recent build it shows only garbage in the WPS and tag info.
13:43:39Nico_Plinuxstb: ah, then maybe we could remove the buffer from the struct mp3entry and put it in a handle
13:43:42pixelmaPaulJam: ii
13:44:00pixelmaoops, IiRC bluebrother reported issues with genre too
13:44:44pixelmabut he didn't see what it's related too
13:45:01*pixelma gives up correcting typos
13:45:44linuxstbNico_P: This isn't straightforward - we don't know in advance how big the buffer will need to be. We would need to do an initial parse of the tags to calculate the space needed, and then do the real parsing, which seems overkill...

13:46:35LearActually, tags should be limited, to what the line scrolling code can handle (something like 260 chars last time I checked, but that was a while ago).
13:46:45Nico_Plinuxstb: what kind of parsing is involved? isn't there a header indicating the total length?
13:47:47linuxstbMaybe, but I don't think that's universal. Also, that will be the length of the tags in the file, when parsed, they will take a different amount of space (e.g. conversion to utf8)

13:51:40linuxstbDo I understand correctly that there is "core" metadata stored in the mp3entry struct, and that's copied from the audio buffer to the static prev/current/next track structs. Plus we have the ability to store arbitrary metadata in the audio buffer, which isn't copied?
13:52:11Nico_Plinuxstb: yes, that's it
13:52:34Nico_Pbut currently this arbitray metadata possibility isn't used

13:54:10Nico_Pif the metadata parsers could allow it, it would seem a good solution to me to have a string buffer as a handle separate from the mp3entry handle
13:54:12Nico_Pyes
13:54:17LearHm, it might be nice for the codec to be able to say that some track metadata is no longer needed. Not sure if it is needed yet though.
13:54:30Nico_Pnot always, but most of the time (see audio_current_track and audio_next_track)

13:55:49Nico_Pprevious id3 is to keep the progressbar updated during the track trnasition
13:56:08linuxstbBut you just need "previous length" for that?
13:56:26Nico_Plinuxstb: "elapsed" and "length" are the most important I think. probably other things the codec needs, but the string I'm pretty sure are safe to move

14:34:28linuxstbaustriancoder: Hence the need to talk ;)
14:34:32amiconnlinuxstb: 3G can't record. It just has a DAC
14:34:43jhMikeSlinuxstb: not at all. Are they supposed to? (haven't look at retailos too much)
14:34:50linuxstbReally? I could have sworn that IPL could record on the 3G...

14:35:06amiconnNico_P: No, but resume
14:35:45amiconnlinuxstb: Hmm, seems I confused sth. WM8731 can record
14:36:16Nico_Pamiconn: resume to the last few secs? also it's expected that the playlist index will increment a little too early, but metadata should be fine
14:36:27Nico_Pamiconn: I would be very interested to hear a repro recipe
14:36:32jhMikeSIf the wm8731 driver was similar to other targets. I found out the chip was left tuned off after recording was stopped. Probably the problem.

14:36:57amiconnI observed it on ipod video, while testing something totally unrelated
14:37:35jhMikeSI added shadow regs and defines to wm8731 which make it much easier to track what's happening

14:38:32amiconnfirmware/drivers/audio/wm8731.c
14:38:33jhMikeSI redid the driver for wm8731. Is there something with wm8731 that is having the problem?
14:38:56preglowNico_P: lemme check exactly what rev it is
14:39:30Nico_Ppreglow: my last two commit were attempts to fix the problem so if you still have it the attempts obviously failed
14:39:36linuxstbI don't think so - the problem devices are ipod 4G, Color and Nano (WM8975) and ipod Video (WM8758)
14:40:20preglowNico_P: 15334

15:14:16BigBambirzr\: You need to reboot to the OF

15:14:40rzr\aha
15:14:56BigBambiAlthough it is being worked on

18:13:30geek0091it uses a patcher
18:13:55scharkalvinAh, I missed the "r" part. But I thought the newest bootloader (version 0.5) fixed that.
18:13:57geek0091and you have to update the driver, to the e200 without hte extra security feature
18:14:23geek0091note the "r"
18:14:48linuxstbI don't know what you mean by "update the driver". The procedure is: 1) Run e200rpatcher to patch the Sansa bootloader. ; 2) Install the Rockbox bootloader and Rockbox itself.

18:15:17geek0091when I do that, it gives me the error though

18:15:36linuxstbDo what, I listed two things...

18:20:59linuxstbSo e200rpatcher worked - i.e. it succeeded in uploading the patching program onto your Sansa, but when that program ran on your Sansa, it displayed an "unknown bootloader" message on your Sansa's LCD?
18:21:31geek0091when I just ran the patcher, on a fresh version of the e260r firmware, it says that the upload of the application failed, so im puzzled.
18:21:38geek0091yes
18:22:18linuxstbAre you sure you have an E260R, and not a normal E260? You could try connecting your Sansa to your computer normally, and then run sansapatcher to see if it detects it.

19:12:57Bam1possibly wrong place xD
19:13:50linuxstbkkurbjun: AFAIK, they should work, but you want gcc to know exactly which processor you're using, so it can optimise correctly, and also make use of the extra instructions available on armv5
19:15:03linuxstbkkurbjun: But I don't think my gcc patch is working correctly for ARM926EJ-S - I tried an m:robe build for that CPU, and it failed.
19:15:19kkurbjungotcha, maybe I should set the m:robe up to compile for the arv5TEJ.. I wonder if there's any benefit from letting it know it's a J version
19:15:22kkurbjunoh
19:15:34kkurbjunwhere is it failing?
19:15:39linuxstbDid you read my mailing list post about this issue?
19:16:01Bam1is the mailing list email or IRL mail?
19:16:09kkurbjunI saw it, I don't recall the details, I'll go back and reread
19:17:52linuxstbIt failed with the same message I got originally when compiling with the old Rockbox arm-elf-gcc
19:18:44linuxstbI don't completely understand how the multilibs are supposed to work, but I think we'll need to add an alias so that arm926ej-s uses the armv5 libs.
19:19:12kkurbjuncan't we specify the core, ie, armv5tej?

19:30:48timoh my bad. im new here. well i just got rockbox yesterday. installed it and it works fine. i have a 5.5g 80 gig ipod vid. i download the coverflow theme for it. but it wont go into coverflow mode. the dude who made it says"This is my first WPS for the iPod. Inspired by the iPhone and its cover flow feature, I came up with this. Enjoy! Tested with EvilG's Fusion build, but should work on any build with AlbumArt, Bitm
19:32:44timwhat are fusion builds? what patches?
19:32:51markuntim: you are out of luck here if it only works with unoffial builds
19:33:04markunbut they have a separate forum section
19:33:21timno.. i downloaded it from this website!
19:33:58kkurbjuntim, you need a custom build, we only test/support the official build without any patches
19:33:58alienbiker99tim. it needs a special build. and it doesnt work like you think. its not the actualy coverflow
19:34:31bertriktim, you downloaded it from rockbox-themes.org?
19:34:37timyea
19:35:15timthats where i got it from
19:35:18bertrikI think that's not part of the official rockbox website, although it looks very similar
19:36:16timohh. where can i get the official themes from the official rockbox website?
19:36:22alienbiker99coverflow would be a cool addition if album art is ever integrated
19:37:21timapple sucks big nuts for not sending a update for oldr ipods to get coverflow
19:38:50timayo it says i need a EvilG build. Whats that?
19:38:58Lloreantim: That's a somewhat invalid assumption to make: that they can. Older iPods are a lot slower than what the newest ones are expected to be.
19:39:17krazykittim, it means it needs an unsupported build, which you can find in the forums.

19:51:55linuxstbkkurbjun: I think my way of building an armv5 lib is wrong - I'm specifying cpu=arm9e, so when gcc looks for an arm926ej-s lib, it doesn't find one, so defaults back to the armv4 one.
19:52:48keen-hmm, for rockbox it says there's .mod support for sansa c200 but they don't show up in my player's listing... am i doing something wrong

19:56:14linuxstbDeeno: "patches" are changes to the Rockbox source code. To use them, you need to apply those changes to a copy of the source code, and compile your own version of Rockbox. Or use a pre-compiled version someone else has made which includes those patches.

20:50:20lostlogicnot that that's a possible problem since it doesn't yield in between :-P
20:50:40lostlogicjhMikeS: nothing in buffering.c should be called that often (right Nico_P)

20:51:29jhMikeSso nothing is really a big deal there. Frankly, I think users of data should protect the actually data themselves.
20:52:06Nico_Phow?
20:53:08Nico_Phmm anyway with cooperative if I do "bufgetid3(CUR_TI->id3_hid)->elapsed = value - latency;" there's no risk of the handle having moved while I write

22:52:34jhMikeSsure, why not? it's not my problem. some might like it just to max out the bass.
22:52:36amiconnThere are already both tone controls (either hardware *or* software) and the sw eq - I think that's more than enough

22:54:06jhMikeSbeh...I'd just rather replace them on gigabeat and use SW only. I can't even listen to the HW ones there and I just can't match with eq quite right.

22:54:29preglowit's more of an issue on ipod, which hasn't god cycles to burn
22:54:41preglowthe latency issue still bothers me...
22:56:19jhMikeSThough I'll say I _can_ listen to the adaptive bass mode. It's not quite so bad. Some is clipping problems some is just too steep a filter.
22:57:41preglowif only arm had something like emac, *sigh*
22:58:41jhMikeSbut with COP, SPC's with echo play quite nicely with SW tone controls so why would iPods be so bad off? They actually don't cause too much boosting on sansa or H10.

23:12:58preglowlinuxstb: i don't like it either, but can you think of anything better
23:13:05preglowlinuxstb: also, i just found a reference in the uda datasheet
23:13:44preglow- Two settings: f_c = 1.5 kHz and f_c = 3 kHz assuming sampling frequency is 44.1 kHz
23:13:46jhMikeSpreglow: we change the menu items based on current samplerate ;)

23:37:25preglowlinuxstb: anywho, does the patch work ok?
23:37:39preglowlinuxstb: how is the cutoff menu inserted into the current menu?
23:38:32jhMikeSpreglow: it's only for HW based? can't remember now if you might have mentioned already.
23:39:52preglowjhMikeS: what is only for hw based? if you're talking about cutoff support, i am planning to extend it to other targets too, and eventually sw tone controls
23:40:13jhMikeSyes, I was asking about cutoff
23:40:18safetydanpreglow, linuxstb added a comment to FS #7440. Sounds like it sort of works, but resets the gain every time the cutoff is changed
23:40:54preglowjhMikeS: for swtc we can of course add full proper cutoff support, but i think i'll limit it to a couple of choices
23:40:58*jhMikeS forgot how his own bloody PTS queue worked :p ... it's not quite a normal queue
23:41:09 Quit Robin0800 (" HydraIRC -> http://www.hydrairc.com <- Organize your IRC")
23:41:38preglowlinuxstb: would "0 (low), 1, 2, 3 (high)" be any better?
23:42:10preglowlinuxstb: on other targets that only support two choices, i would use "low, high"
23:42:12linuxstbI think so. Maybe 1-4 would be better as well.
23:42:19preglowahh, yes, no 0, definitely
23:42:28jhMikeSpreglow: makes sense. did you use the choices I made when you committed it or switch it? maybe that's why I like it so much :)

23:42:43 Quit Daniel_S ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
23:43:02linuxstbsafetydan: Sorry, I meant "base cutoff"
23:43:10preglowlinuxstb: how is the cutoff menu inserted into the current menu?
23:43:20linuxstbsafetydan: (in settings_list.c)
23:43:23jhMikeSmacros?
23:43:38preglowhow as in appearance
23:43:58linuxstbpreglow: "Bass", "Bass cutoff", "Treble", "Treble cutoff". That also looks a bit ugly, but I'm not sure how else it could be done.
23:44:05preglowbass/treble/bass cutoff/treble cutoff sounds like too many entries for that single feature
23:44:10jhMikeSjust being a bugger :)
23:44:47preglowbut i don't want them in a sub menu either, bass and treble should be easily accessible
23:44:59 Quit Arathis ("Bye, bye")
23:45:08jhMikeSBass->Cutoff/Gain, Treble->Cutoff/Gain <== ??
23:45:29preglowsame trouble, it buries an essential setting like bass and treble control too deeply, imho
23:46:03linuxstbI had forgotten just how crowded all the settings menus are...
23:47:23preglowthey are that
23:47:28preglowand i'm starting to really dislike it
23:47:32preglowwe need some kind of cleanup
23:47:38jhMikeSpreglow: access issues are a result of the way things are done
23:47:58preglowalso, "general settings" is indeed starting to be a bit too general for me
23:48:02preglowyou have sound settings in one separate thing
23:48:03preglowthen bang
23:48:06pregloweverything else in general
23:48:25linuxstbI think just some gradual evolution is in order. e.g. "Playback settings" could be moved to the top level, next to "Recording Settings"
23:48:52preglowbasically branch essential stuff like that further down
23:49:05pregloweverything you need to just access and tweak once should be buried deeper
23:49:20jhMikeSrethinking of widgets needs to be done and some more advanced stuff than lists used
23:49:35preglowyup
23:49:36preglowindeed
23:49:36 Quit tpickers66 (Read error: 113 (No route to host))
23:49:46safetydanlinuxstb, I have real trouble not typing base instead of bass sometimes. Did the cutoff setting actually work though?
23:49:49preglowright now we manage screen space really weirdly
23:50:06linuxstbsafetydan: It's hard to tell, as the gain is reset...
23:50:19jhMikeSfrankly it's contrary to the way settings are displayed on pretty much every device I see
23:50:24preglowyeah
23:50:40preglowi don't like how some settings waste screen space like mad
23:50:51preglowlike "sort case sensitive", yes/no
23:50:59preglowwastes all the screen on even h120
23:51:00preglowlooks stupid
23:51:08preglowsome kind of overlay would look better
23:51:21preglowbut i guess this stems for the fact that our display drivers are line based
23:51:24linuxstbAh, viewports...
23:51:25preglowoverlays would be hard to do
23:51:30preglowlinuxstb: yes, viewports ...
23:51:33jhMikeSI think the displaying of the value with the text line would be just fine and pretty much everything in the universe does that
23:51:42*amiconn actually likes those simple lists

23:52:37safetydanyeah, the consistency of a list for everything is nice sometimes
23:52:38preglowjhMikeS: yes, i would like that as well
23:52:42preglowsimpler _and_ prettier
23:52:46amiconnSure, some screens look a bit empty on higher resolution, but it allows precise control and is straightforward
23:53:19amiconnAnd it adapts to almost all font sizes with no problems
23:53:19preglowamiconn: i don't get "precise control", what solution wouldn't offer that?
23:53:21jhMikeSI frankly can't see how precision would be affected at all.
23:53:41 Quit davina (Remote closed the connection)
23:53:42linuxstbThere's something to be said for consistency - the current use of lists gives that.
23:54:00amiconnSetting + value on one line looks really ugly if either the screen is small, or the font is big
23:54:22LloreanWell, if you're changing I/O expectations (for example the graphical equalizer screen) you lose precision in the sense that if you try to treat it like the lists, it won't work.
23:54:23jhMikeSwhy is it that if we use things that people are already used to seeing, it's an issue?
23:54:23pixelmajhMikeS: I was very confused by the recording setting of the X5 original firmware which follows a similar concept, IIRC
23:54:33amiconnThe best (i.e. worst looking) example for this is the trigger settings screen
23:54:40LloreanWasn't there a patch that showed setting values *in* the list?
23:54:42tdtookeI just noticed something I'd like to clarify before I start compiling. I noiced for the commit for r15348 that some defines were added for BUFFER_FULL, DATA_NOT_READY, etc.. in apps/playback.c I noticed -2 replaced with DATA_NOT_READY while buffering.h has BUFFER_FULL as -2. Is that a typo or am I looking at this wrong?
23:54:55*amiconn *hates* that screen
23:54:56jhMikeSthat's the trigger settings without proper design
23:55:10linuxstbtdtooke: Sounds like a mistake...
23:55:51jhMikeSpixelma: I'd have to look again. Perhaps they made some particular blunders that could be avoided.
23:56:11amiconnjhMikeS: Imho that can't be made good looking while retaining the flexibility wrt font size etc
23:56:13*preglow thinks the trigger screen is ok, but it overrides the button handling really badly
23:56:51preglowit still has bugs too, i see
23:57:12pregloweverything is inited to "db", but when i try to adjust, it switches to "%"
23:57:16amiconnpreglow: Try the trigger screen with a fairly big font, e.g. Helvetica 24 from rasher's site. Then you''ll get an impression how bad it looks at low resolution even with smaller fonts
23:57:16preglowwho maintains that?
23:57:19linuxstbtdtooke: Maybe the error codes were wrong, and the new version is correct...
23:57:20jhMikeSSome things need sorting out with 1) Default font size for hires screen 2) Just two fonts available
23:57:59Lloreanlinuxstb: Aren't error codes unique to the file/function they're in anyway? For example, -2 is used elsewhere for other things too, isn't it (like in the bootloader)?
23:58:14linuxstbLlorean: They're from a common list in buffering.h
23:58:37amiconnjhMikeS: That has nthing to do with default font size
23:58:41pixelmajhMikeS: I don't understand (2)
23:58:50LloreanAh, he just said one's in playback.c and the other is buffering.h, I assumed he meant two different -2s.
