00:00:34bluefoxxhmm...
00:00:40 Quit bluebrother ("leaving")
00:00:47BigBambiI'd give it a little longer - I've never done it myself so I don't know what to expect

00:01:42BigBambiGive me a moment and I'll find my e200 and try it
00:01:54frostbytehello...im having some problems with my e250
00:02:00BigBambigo ahead
00:02:02frostbyterockbox works great
00:02:11frostbyteeverything works as its supposed to
00:02:14frostbyteexcept my music
00:02:21bluefoxxthere we go
00:02:27frostbytei just purchased a microsd hc 8gb
00:02:29bluefoxxworks fine now :3
00:02:30bluefoxxthanks
00:02:33BigBambifrostbyte: please put sentances on one line
00:02:37frostbyteok
00:02:37BigBambibluefoxx: no problems
00:02:54BigBambifrostbyte: everything except music is a pretty bg except :)
00:03:08BigBambi*big
00:03:08 Quit tyfoo ("Carpe diem")
00:03:13frostbytealright....so after i insert the microsd hc 8gb and it "updates" its database, all my music is a high pitch noise
00:03:36BigBambiRockbox updates or the OF updates?
00:03:44frostbyte???
00:03:50frostbytewhat exactly do i need to do
00:03:56BigBambiWhat updates its database
00:03:59BigBambi???
00:04:16frostbyterockbox build
00:04:28BigBambiHow are you updating the database?
00:04:34BigBambiAnd what version of Rockbox?
00:04:44BigBambiAnd what format music, and was it bought or not?

00:05:00 Quit DerDome ("Leaving.")
00:05:01bluefoxxtips...don't try opening anything and everything in text editor, don't delete database.idx files while playback is going, and if your me, never go to shut down without making sure it turns off...
00:05:10frostbyteversion r19190-081123
00:05:11BigBambiAnd does the music play OK if you go via the filetree and not the database?
00:05:12bertrikI think there's something weird in button-target.h for clip: it #defines BUTTON_VOL_UP but later uses BUTTON_VOLUP (without the extra underscore)
00:05:25frostbytemusic is mp3
00:05:31bluefoxxfirst one gives divide by zero, second one causes a panic, third tends to not shut down but halt with panic: event not found
00:05:33frostbyteit was purchased
00:05:43BigBambiSo it has DRM?
00:05:54BigBambiIn which case Rockbox does not support DRM infected files
00:06:11frostbyteare you talking to me or bluefoxx?
00:06:11BigBambii.e. purchased from where?
00:06:14BigBambiyou
00:06:18bluefoxxdrm doesnt playback...go pirate your tunes like everyone else :P [note: i am being SARCASTIC!]
00:06:33BigBambibluefoxx: Even so, please don't
00:07:47frostbytei bought it from best buy
00:07:47n1sbluefoxx: those sound like bug, i think the text editor one is in the tracker already but could you please file the other two, i don't understand your last issue: "never go to shut down without making sure it turns off" what happens when you try to shut down?
00:07:50frostbyteperfectly new
00:08:00BigBambiNo, where did you buy the music from?
00:08:07bluefoxxpanic: event not found
00:08:38bluefoxxand the divide by zero is my own stupidity, i wondered what would happen if i opened matrix.rock in text editor
00:09:03frostbyteok, only some of the songs work. Is there a way to reupdate the database and get ALL the songs to work. Another thing, please put "for frostbyte, or for blue" before your sentences....tnks
00:09:13n1sbluefoxx: you just try to shut down and rockbox panics?
00:09:28BigBambifrostbyte: for blue would be confusing

00:10:38n1sbluefoxx: this is on a sansa e200? and what are you doing when you shut down (music playing, database updating, etc)?
00:10:56bluefoxxusually music playback...
00:10:58bertrikok, BUTTON_MAIN never seems to be referenced, so that's why it doesn't give a compilation error
00:11:06bluefoxxthis build is several months old, before viewports
00:11:17*BigBambi slaps bluefoxx
00:11:21bluefoxxi use it cause i modded a theme and am to lazy/busy to recode with viewports
00:11:24frostbytethere "bluefoxx"
00:11:29BigBambiNo reporting bugs on old versions!
00:11:31frostbytenick name for bluefoxx is BLUE
00:11:38n1soh, very likely it has been fixed since then :/
00:11:42BigBambifrostbyte: Do you want help?
00:11:46frostbyteyes
00:11:50frostbyteill make it simple

01:51:16fdinelwell nothing much on the fuze buttons side, but hey, anything is already found, one will need DBOP to use buttons on the fuze IMO... and since I got no fuze, you guys will need to better investigate on this one... I can help with suppositions, but nothing much more sadly... :/
01:51:58fdinelwith what I found, there don't seem to be any directly accessible buttons on the gPIOs
01:52:03kugelfdinel: the said thing is, I don't have a real idea of what DBOP is. I searched google but I didn't find answers
01:52:06kugelsad*
01:52:28fdinelwell maybe not that sad, but we'll need one adventurous :/
01:52:44kugelhave you had a look at the diagnosis mode? If yes, I hope you didn't confuse something with all the other tests it offers
01:52:54fdinelit'll be trials'n'errors

02:31:35fdinelkugel: indeed DBOP is also used for LCD on the clip and m200... Maybe I'll have to better look at the OF to ensure that what I saw was really for buttons and wheel...
02:32:06fdinelkugel: But you said you already saw rockbox running without being able to navigate on the fuze, does that mean you already have a "failsafe" combination to revert to the OF, using for example the hold button or USB? if that's the case, then nothing to worry about bricking your fuze, you just need to configure DBOP and try to read from it using settings from the OF
02:32:38fdinelkugel: And then simply display what you read on the LCD so that you know when a button is pressed is it changes the DBOP readings...
02:33:09fdinelkugel: anyway, hope that help, let's try to talk again "live" so we can try some stuff when you'll be back...

04:04:49Unhelpfulit's 1/24 as much buffer, per pixel, as the color targets use... but it's still a pretty hefty chunk. it's not hard to switch between a static and an on-stack buffer, i could could both, and ask somebody with hardware to test, after i'm sure the stuff works in sim.
04:05:23LloreanUnhelpful: Even the smallest mem mono target, relative to the smallest mem color target, is 1/8 of the memory.

04:28:33JdGordoninstead of 1 big read?

04:29:49saratogae200v1
04:31:17JdGordonif its sequencial I would guess reading SECTOR_SIZE blocks instead of 100 bytes might be better? although I dont know how fat puts files on the actual disk

04:32:06saratogasince we're going through all this hassel to efficiently resize anyway, maybe thats worth thinking about

04:34:00saratogatrue, if the sector size is small enough to fit one on the stack, then that'd make sense
04:34:41JdGordonthe main thread is only using 51% on my h300... so plenty of wiggle room
04:35:57saratogaif you read the first half of a sector, and then read the second half in sequence, does it have to seek twice?
04:36:18saratogaor does the disk's own buffer just retransmit the sector
04:36:24saratogaprobably the latter i'd guess
04:36:39JdGordonmaybe... maybe not?
04:39:01saratogainternet says the toshiba drives have a 2MB DRAM buffer that stores recent sectors
04:39:09saratogaso i guess going one sector at a time doesn't really matter
04:39:26saratogaaside maybe from some CPU time spent in the ATA driver
04:40:23*Unhelpful heard "resize" mentioned, and wonders if he needs to be paying attention
04:42:42saratogaUnhelpful: you were talking about the read size before?
04:44:16Unhelpfulsaratoga: only in terms of reducing a static buffer (actually, it's on-stack, now, and 24B wide). the code that fills it, which i didn't change substantially, was already doing 1*<stored pixel size> reads
04:44:56saratogaI was just wondering aloud if theres some advantage to requesting a larger number of pixels at a time
04:45:07saratogaso as to avoid a lot of calls to the ata driver
04:46:49Unhelpfulsaratoga: a good question. there are more than a few places where speed-vs-memory tradeoffs are available - i removed a line of scale buffer, at the cost of two extra multiplies per output pixel in the linear scaler.

05:04:57saratogaalso, i've committed the first part of the Sansa power savings patch
05:07:19Unhelpfulsaratoga: i think that's about the size of the old-scaler line cache, isn't it? the binary size didn't go down so much, but if i understand correctly, what i'm concerned about is bin+ram, right?

07:28:18Dhraakellianhow likely is data corruption if one builds rockbox for the e200v1 with USB transfer enabled?
07:29:11JdGordonsome people get it and some dont so it depends....
07:29:15Dhraakellian...and actually uses it to transfer files to one's shiny 8GB microSDHC
07:29:28JdGordonyou dont have a sdhc reader?
07:29:34LloreanJdGordon: For the e200, it's gonna happen eventually, if you use it long enough
07:29:52LloreanSince it's the SD bug, not the USB bug that's the problem, so it doesn't really matter what your PC does, etc.
07:29:55Dhraakellianhave an e200 with a working spring in the microSD slot but not a working latch to hold the card in
07:30:49DhraakellianI'm using a dab of hot glue (at the suggeston of someone in -community) to hold in a 2GB microSD
07:31:28DhraakellianCan't do that with the 8GB card because I then wouldn't be able to easily take it out and use the mobilemate adapter to transfer to/from it
07:33:15JdGordonbit of sticky tape and paper should be less permananet?
07:34:54Dhraakellianthat'd make the side all sticky. the idea was that this would just flake off under the assault of a thumbnail
07:35:02Dhraakellianor something along those lines
07:35:42Dhraakellianso, just out of curiosity, you said the problem is in the microSD driver? Does that mean that USB transfer to/from the internal storage would be safe?
07:35:46Dhraakellianor am I misunderstanding?
07:37:35JdGordonnot microSD... the SD driver handles both the internal storage and the microSD card
07:37:44Dhraakellianah
07:37:52*JdGordon isnt sure which it effects more though
07:38:24Dhraakellianis it likely to be a problem with the SansaV2 family?
07:38:56Dhraakellian(although the SansaV2 family knows about microSDHC in the OF, so I suppose it wouldn't be so much of an issue)

08:00

09:58:20LinusNhmm, what's the purpose of USE_BACKLIGHT_THREAD_FADING?
10:00
10:00:27kugelit enables the fading algorithm. The backlight works without as well (no fading of course), so I introduced the #define. The backlight code is different for targets which don't use the fading, i.e. I need some #ifdef'ing in backlight.c
10:00:54linuxstbkugel: So the colour is correct in the bootloader, but wrong in main Rockbox?
10:01:51kugellinuxstb: I can hardly say when I only see the rockbox logo and little peaces of small text in the bootloader. But yes, it looks correct
10:03:11linuxstbkugel: You should be able to easily test - e.g. draw some rectangles of different colours in the bootloader. If that's the case, then you need to look for what different lcd code is run in the main build, compared to the bootloader.
10:03:51kugelthe colors aren't really wrong in the main rockbox, they have a slight green-tinted
10:04:11kugels/have a/are
10:04:18linuxstbHaving a green tint sounds wrong to me...

12:34:18TiMiDorockbox on my ipod But i was getting this error Starting bootloader installation Searching for ipods No ipods found.
12:34:32linuxstbTiMiDo: Which ipod do you have?
12:34:34TiMiDoand i actually point it to /media/IPOD and is not working though? any ideas

12:34:53linuxstbRockbox won't work on that.
12:35:00TiMiDooh for real.
12:35:05TiMiDoi though it did since it's here.
12:35:19pondlife"here"?

13:51:01kugelwell, I guess you the guy who did the driver based it on the SansaV2HardwareMapping page
13:51:03funmanby the way I'm not sure restoring the gpio direction registers is needed at all, they should be set in a button_device_init() just like for the Clip. After checking in the wiki page that these pins are not used for something else than buttons
13:51:23fogravenwill rockbox work for Ipod Nano 3G
13:51:40kugelfograven: nope
13:51:56Lloreanfograven: Out of curiosity, is there something we could do to make you trust the list of supported players more?
13:53:19fogravenis there some firmware that will
13:53:33funmanexcept the official Apple firmware, no
13:54:58funmandomonoky, JdGordon, kugel: i'm curious if you tested the DMA code pasted in the forum in the bootloader; to confirm that it equally fails on all models and not just the Clip ?
13:55:25kugelfunman: yep, checksum fails
13:55:26funmanwe could use the current sd_read_sectors() function in the bootloader until Someone fixes it
13:56:24*JdGordon hasnt tested anything for about 3 weeks (apart from the build kugel sent me )
13:56:49*domonoky tests now..
13:57:01 Part fograven
13:57:29kugelwell, the initialization of the controller in the main binary is entirely independent of the bootloader (i.e. it doesn't care how the bootloader leaves sd) that should work
13:57:58kugelJdGordon: I can't really tell why you get a white screen though
13:58:17funmankugel: that *works* for sure, but imo it's not very clean
13:58:44JdGordonwhats not clean? re-iniitlaizing in the main build?
13:58:53kugelfunman: of course not
13:59:08kugelJdGordon: wrongly initialize in the bootloader

14:01:19*domonoky gets a "file not found" with dma in the bootloader...
14:02:18funmandomonoky: then the (supposedly same) bug occurs earlier in the m200v4 than in Clip and Fuze

16:52:55linuxstbmc2739: It just needs someone to refer to the datasheet and check/test the lcd_update_rect() function is setting up the transfer correctly. lcd_update_rect() isn't used in the bootloader, which is why it's just being seen now.

19:06:14kugelthe e200v2 apparently buttons work for the fuze
19:06:20pixelmamaybe some entered DFU mode on 3rd gen Nanos by putting the device into the washing machine (remember the stories of 2nd gen Nanos)
19:06:41kugeldomonoky, bertrik: ^
19:06:51bertrikkugel, really?
19:07:21kugelI copied button-e200v2.c into button-fuze.c, and removed the #if 0 in the bootloader
19:07:54kugelI had the strong assumption that it's the same, since the USB is on the same GPIO and lcd is nearly the same (so I thought no DBOP for fuze)

20:23:27Zagorbertrik: I don't think the second configuration is intended for "normal" computer use
20:23:51kugelhm, so the fuze and e200v2 button driver are the same for now. does it make sense to already merge them? They're far away from finished

20:29:52bertrikI think I read that on a microsoft page but I can't find the link anymore
20:32:30Zagorduh, the HID class is of course for the accessory protocol
20:32:41Zagorhid interface...
20:32:49GodEater_Zagor: "of course"?
20:32:57GodEater_why is it not present on older iPod's then ?
20:33:52Zagorsorry, I did not mean that as "I'm sure of it". rather like "it makes sense".
20:35:34*gevaerts isn't convinced
20:35:49Zagorhttp://www.jungo.com/st/embedded_usb_hid.html indicates there are two protocols: 1-wire (over usb) and 2-wire (not usb)
20:35:59gevaertsI'd expect the ipod to be master on the accessory protocol bus
20:36:52Zagorgevaerts: with HID it doesn't really matter who is master or slave. keyboards are HID slaves for instance.
20:37:09gevaertsExactly. Aren't most accessories slaves?
20:37:38Zagoriap is not only for accessories such as itrip. think docks, stereos or cars. they are rather masters than slaves.
20:38:41gevaertsIt depends on your point of view I guess
20:38:51amiconnGodEater: The older ipods run the accessory stuff via serial

21:06:22Unhelpfulbertrik: i have effective area and linear scalers for color. i'm not considering those to be worthwhile on gray or mono targets, but there are people who want *some* form of scaling there if we have it anywhere else, and i think nearest-neighbor can be done absurdly cheap

21:09:47kugelOk, http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/9575 is waiting for a commit
21:11:38Unhelpfuli need to test it, but i *think* i see how to formulate a bresenham's-like algorithm that lets me skip many input lines quickly, and that will work for any "slope". and having scaling for the cost of one or two extra adds or compares is probably cheap enough to consider always calling the scaler.
21:13:03bertrikI think speed is not really an issue for scaling
21:14:43Unhelpfulbertrik: the "smooth" scalers for color do a 3-6 multplies per input pixel and per output pixel, as well as copying everything into a buffer with wider sizes and back. i don't really think we should be calling them for unscaled output.
21:16:32n1sUnhelpful: how long does it take to scale a, say 500*500 bmp to 100*100 on one of our targets that don't have overkill cpu's? (pp for example)
21:16:35Unhelpfulthe nearest-neighbor i'm talking about for gray/bw will be doing a couple of divides on init, and then just add/sub/cmp, so it might make more sense to call it unconditionally than to have a separate wad of code that does the same thing without ever skipping pixels.
21:17:11Unhelpfuln1s: only color i've tested on is beast. maybe i should throw this code onto one of my sansas :D
21:17:12n1sdivides are crazy expensive on armv4
21:18:16amiconndivides are crazy expensive on any arm
21:18:26Unhelpfuln1s: yes, but i could always add a special case to skip the divide if in==out
21:18:48amiconnarmv4 is worse with libgcc, not so much with the optimised assembly that's now in the codeclib
21:18:48Unhelpfulstill much cheaper than the code duplication, i would think.
21:19:12amiconnThe arm division routines do their own optimisation
21:19:26Unhelpfulamiconn: right now i'm using a straight /, which i supposed means libgcc's routine.

21:25:11gevaertsZagor: what's wrong with just removing that for release versions?
21:25:25Unhelpfulamiconn: i don't need a couple per line, though. i just need to divide by a constant, either the input or output dimension, based on scale direction. easier to store its inverse once.

21:26:18Unhelpfulif i could get logf to not cause data aborts on my beast, i'd add some real timing code, and see how much time is actually being spent in the scaler. i count five mississippis while loading a 1600x1200 wallpaper into sliding_puzzle.
21:27:28n1sUnhelpful: you can count ticks and splash
21:28:16Unhelpfuln1s: i suppose i could... splash is synchronous, i'd imagine? i don't want it to hose whatever wants to draw after it.
21:29:31n1sas long as it's called from the gui thread you're fine, but it usually works ok from other threads (ok enough for debugging purposes)
21:30:13amiconnsplash() is synchronous, but doesn't delete, so it stays until overdrawn
21:30:48amiconnAnd afaik sliding_puzzle creates no extra thread, so it runs in the main (== gui) thread
21:32:40Unhelpfulit's the easiest way i have to load a scaled bitmap on demand. i suppose rockpaint could be hacked to use resize-on-load easily enough

21:41:36ZagorLlorean: why bother? nostalgia?
21:41:46*Unhelpful would *not* recommend people put art >2x screen width on a sansa with this patch ;)
21:42:05Unhelpfulthe shakespeare test image is about that size, and takes ~3s to load-and-scale
21:42:16LloreanZagor: Exactly. There's no real harm in it, and it's about the only real nod you can keep around to the first wave of players that won't ever be harmful if it's just left like that.
21:42:55LloreanUnhelpful: 3 seconds isn't really that bad since it happens during buffering.
21:43:25LloreanUnhelpful: Do you ensure the CPU is boosted during scaling?
21:43:53UnhelpfulLlorean: ... i have no clue how? that might be a big part of the difference, we don't do speed scaling on beast yet, correct?

23:36:14kugelZagor: would be best to use the method he used, but instead of #define ROCKBOX_DIR to #undef BOOTDIR and then #define BOOTDIR

23:36:55Zagorkugel: bootdir and rockboxdir are not always the same. some targets put the firmware file in root.
23:37:55Unhelpfuli don't suppose an arm guru could say if comparing to a value is much slower/faster than a sign check?

23:40:10kugelyea, I mean for normal builds define ROCKBOX_DIR and for bootloader redefine BOOTDIR
23:41:13kugelI didn't claim they're the same
23:41:18 Quit faemir (Remote closed the connection)
23:41:56kugelZagor: btw: regardless of BOOTDIR, load_firmware at least will always look in the root if the file isn't found in BOOTDIR

23:42:41Zagorkugel: it is the opposite that is a problem. if the zip installs the firmware in a dir where the (factory) bootloader doesn't expect it

23:43:52Zagorkugel: overall I'm sceptical about encouraging such things in the bootloader
23:44:04Zagorthe rolo use case is a lot more valuable
23:44:24kugelZagor: that doesn't have anything to with configuring the bootdir, when you're talking about the factory bootloader
23:45:07Zagorkugel: you're right... :-)
23:45:24kugelthats the problem of the patch you committed actually. and for that reason (to make it kinda usefull) the bootdir should also be configurable imho
23:45:58Zagorhuh? what is the problem?
23:46:44 Quit bertrik ("Leaving")
23:47:55kugelI install my rockbox with changed root dir, but it won't load, since the standard bootloade looks in .rockbox
23:48:18kugelunless I have a normal build installed at the same time
23:48:34Zagorkugel: the rockbox_dir change is explicitly designed to NOT be used for booting. it's designed to be used for rolo testing.
23:48:52Zagorit even says so in configure −−help
23:49:04kugeland what's the specific reason to disallow such a option for bootloaders?
23:49:41Zagorwhat would be the reason to add it? I can't see a use for it, other than vanity changes.

23:51:30kugelZagor: either I edit my config-*.h or do it like building a normal build in a consistent manner
23:52:02kugelthe possibility not not boot from .rockbox is there. It's just the parameter for configure to be implemented
23:52:10kugelto not*
23:52:21Zagorkugel: yes, but what point is there to change this value?
23:52:45Zagoradding things "because we can" is not reason enough
23:53:44*amiconn managed to speed up the ape predictor on armv6 by almost 20%, just by shuffling instructions around
23:53:55amiconnOverall speedup is ~5% for -c1000
23:54:45gevaertsshotofadds: I think I got as far as that as well
23:54:59kugelZagor: I think that's a reason. The change is rather trivial and it doesn't cost any ram or binsize, it's more consistent and it's just a faster way to access a existing possibility
23:55:54kugelanyway, I see no harm in that. But if you're opposed to that, well

23:58:07Zagorkugel: everything has a cost. in this case it adds complexity to tools/configure plus it adds another possible error case when people come asking why their ipod won't boot. what gain does it bring that balances this?
