00:06:25MOHDMACHI finally figured out a .wps file with a volume tag and a conditional working the way I want it to.
00:06:39MOHDMACHExcept the text does not display at all.
00:07:40Bagderkugel: all zeroes...
00:08:08MOHDMACHI tried moving the album, aritist, track info to a different location on the .wps file but that did not work.
00:08:09kugelreally? weird
00:08:42kugelI don't have a hex editor handy, can you recommend one for linux?
00:08:50Bagderhexdump
00:09:17kugeloh I didn't know about that one
00:09:28Bagderhexdump -C is what I usually use
00:10:18kugelit's not all zeroes here
00:10:20MOHDMACHThe viewport is set in size and position which I have checked multiple times and I have the font colored black and the WP screen is white so the font color is not the problem.
00:10:38kugelbut it looks weird, for sure
00:11:14PaulJamMOHDMACH: could you post your wps code somewhere (pastebin or similar).
00:11:18kugelah wait, it's all zeroes
00:11:29Bagderright, hexdump hides repeated lines

00:31:01PaulJamMOHDMACH: from the CustomWPS wiki page: If any viewports are defined, you cannot display text in the default viewport (use it for images only)
00:32:23MOHDMACHThats exactly what is supposed to happen(It is what is happening at least in the volume bar image case) but it is not supposed to cover the whole screen.
00:32:50MOHDMACHIt is only supposed cover the progress bar while the volume is being adjusted.
00:33:42PaulJamthe point is, that as soon as you use one viewport in the WPS, then you have to set up a viewport for _all_ the text elements in the WPS.
00:35:17MOHDMACHWhat is the default viewport?
00:35:49PaulJamthe whole screen (minus the statusbar height)
00:36:54MOHDMACHSo if I set up only one viewport I have to setup one for all the text also.
00:37:03PaulJamyes
00:37:51MOHDMACHIt's back to the text editor for me then. Thanks for the help.
00:40:47PaulJambtw, there might be another problem with your WPS: the volume images, the progress bar and the conditional viewport are overlapping. (they all have 22x174 as origin)
00:43:31MOHDMACHThat was on purpose. While the volume is being adjusted the volume bar covers the progress bar just like in the original ipod firmware or similar at least.
00:44:47MOHDMACHI find it strange that when the viewport is not present the important text is not displayed.
00:44:52 Quit gregorovius ()
00:45:54MOHDMACHThe size of it as you seen is just supposed to cover the progress bar not the whole screen.
00:47:00MOHDMACHI guess from what you said I have to set up a viewport for all that text but I just find it strange is all.
00:47:10 Join jhulst [0] (n=jhulst@unaffiliated/jhulst)
00:47:32PaulJamMOHDMACH: i would recommend to put the volume stuff into its own conditional viewport so basically the %mv line would be: '%?mv.5<%Vda|%Vdv>' (with the conditional viewport with the descriptor "a" containing the volume bar)
00:50:51MOHDMACHSo in my case since the volume bar is separate bitmap images I would do the following %?mv.5<%Vda|%xda|%xdb|%xdc....|%Vdv>
00:51:54 Quit Zagor ("Clint excited")
00:52:26PaulJamno, load the images inside the conditional viewport (with the coordinates 0|0 ) and also the line '%?pv<%xdm|%xdn|%xdo|%xdp|%xdq|%xdr|%xds|%xdt|%xdu|%xdv|%xdw>'

01:00:17MOHDMACH?
01:01:32PaulJamthe %xl tag doesn't have width or height parameters
01:02:35MOHDMACHSorry I forgot :)
01:03:19PaulJamthe code for the conditional volume viewport should look like that: http://pastebin.com/m36a603b9
01:05:24MOHDMACHSo all the images below a %Vl tag go into that viewport
01:05:38MOHDMACH?

01:11:24PaulJamwell, the wiki says: All lines before the first viewport declaration are drawn in the default (full-screen) viewport, and lines after a viewport declaration are drawn within that viewport.
01:12:10MOHDMACHYeah that's why I said nevermind.
01:13:25Oliver__hello
01:13:32Oliver__does anyone have an idea?
01:13:45PaulJamdo you use the same setting on you H300 and H100?
01:13:57Oliver__i tzhink so, yes
01:13:58PaulJam*settings
01:14:37Oliver__what kinda setting could have influence on what i described?
01:14:39MOHDMACHBut if I use the coordinates 0,0 for the volume viewport it would cover the play mode status bitmaps instead of covering the progress bar. Or were you just talking about the viewports that need to made for the text?
01:14:52Oliver__or is ist becaUse of the
01:15:06Oliver__or is it because of the color grqaphnics?

04:13:20LloreanI thought someone said it could.
04:13:32LloreanOr rather, I'm not sure if it's fwpatcher
04:13:37LloreanI think it was the tool for the iFP port.

04:20:05toffe82_If you boot rockbox and attached the usb after, there is no problem
04:21:51jhMikeStoffe82_: I think it's a problem with the USB thread. The beast will soft deadlock too.
04:22:47toffe82_there is a problem with the usb on the hdd1630 too when you connect it , it reboot until you disconnect
04:23:04jhMikeSThere are problems when using the stack and all threads don't ack.

08:46:22jayde_drag0nwhat does OF mean?
08:46:28lucentOF = original firmware
08:46:44lucentor alternately OEM Firmware ;)
08:46:57jayde_drag0nwell i don't mind doin a restore before install.. BUT afterwards can i still sync via itunes?
08:47:08jayde_drag0nor do i need to use a different program?
08:47:25lucentI can't answer conclusively, it's been years since I tried rockbox on an iPod
08:47:58scorchejayde_drag0n: rockbox doesnt have an issue with itunes-loaded files...itunes just places the files in odd named folders and changes their names...as long as you have your tags intact, you can still use the database
08:48:08lucentthe way it *usually* works is that you install the rockbox bootloader code to your player device, and this allows an option to choose the original firmware at boot time
08:48:36scorcheand by "option", he means "you can hold down a button for booting the OF"
08:48:43lucentso if it works like that, then you should be able to boot the OF and sync with whatever software you used before
08:48:50lucentyup, thanks scorche
08:49:03jayde_drag0nokay.. i can't find enough screenshots to answer my other questions.. can i still scroll thru stuff via genre like i currently do .. or will it more look like a winamp screen?
08:49:30lucentthere's a file-directory based browse, and a database browse
08:49:38lucentthe database browse is initialized from tag information
08:49:41scorcheit can look however you wish it to...you can browse by genre if your files have the genre tag field properly filled out
08:50:11jayde_drag0nlol oh yes.. i'm obsessive about orgianization on my files ESPECIALLY since i use it for audiobooks
08:50:29jayde_drag0neverything is tagged.. disc numbers filled out.. track numbers
08:50:52scorcheif you use itunes, browsing by the actual disk structure will be useless
08:51:05jayde_drag0nbut i know from experience in linux.. that there was no way to organize dic numbe first.. then track number.. and it rendered my audiobooks useless
08:51:27jayde_drag0ni had to use itunes for it to do it right
08:51:40scorcheyou dont have to here
08:51:45jayde_drag0notherwise my screen on my ipod went like this track 1 track 1 track 1 etc

11:16:32kugelbut what if a codec runs only a bit more than real time. refilling buffer paralell to decoding may require boosting again in such a case
11:18:03Zagorflash buffering is very quick. I think it would be difficult to find a case where boosting makes a real difference.
11:18:28Zagoron the other hand buffer boost doesn't cost much either, so perhaps there's not much point adding more #ifdefs

11:49:00 Nick fxb__ is now known as fxb (n=felixbru@h1252615.stratoserver.net)
11:50:11t0masZagor: CPUDIV controls the cpu clock right? so that might have a really weird effect on other things relaying on the cpuclock?
11:51:02Zagort0mas: I don't see how waiting for PLL resync changes that
11:51:59t0mashm.. is that the only thing the bit accomplishes?
11:52:43t0mas(have you tried if it is possible to change CPUDIV without that? or is that a really stupid question? :-))
11:53:05Zagorthat is basically what I asked linusn
11:54:09ZagorI might do some experiments tonight
11:54:35t0mashmhm.. I ment.. "isn't the change just prohibited"
11:54:42t0masor.. not processed..
11:55:34Zagorit's prohibited in the docs. or at least that's not the proper way to do it.
11:55:45LinusNi would think that changing the frequency on the fly could cause temporary illegal timing
11:55:52amiconnZagor: There is still a dependency problem for codecs. Even after your api bump, a build made with plain 'make' still uses the old ci->configure arguments and hence doesn't work
11:56:25amiconnThis time it looks like codec fail because of the api version mismatch
11:56:31ZagorLinusN: what does "illegal" mean in this context?
11:56:38LinusNabove spec
11:56:40Zagoramiconn: that's bad
11:57:11t0masZagor: setting the bypass bit makes the cpu-clock be based on the crystal instead of crystal + PLL right?
11:57:11LinusNdepending on how the pll works and when you do the change
11:57:18LinusNt0mas: yes
11:57:19t0masso indeed.. it might be that the PLL emits some to high frequency while changing from one to another?
11:57:21Zagort0mas: yes
11:57:29LinusNt0mas: that is my guess
11:57:39Zagorwell we
11:58:02Zagorwe're not changing that mode at all (in my experiment)
11:58:12t0mas(why would you want to skip it? to keep the cpu from dropping in frequency steeply while switching to or from boost?)
11:58:27Zagorbut then again I've never made a PLL so I don't know where it could fail
11:58:36Zagort0mas: yes, the pll wait takes a long time
11:58:54t0masok, and all that time the cpu runs at a very low frequency?
11:59:02Zagoron other targets we have dividers we can set without waiting, making boost near-instantaneous
11:59:08t0masso boosting and un-boosting is essentially an expensive operation now?
11:59:11LinusNi wouldn't want to risk anything by skipping the bypass, the errors resulting from it could be subtle and cause all kinds of weirdness
11:59:12Zagort0mas: yes, and we wait for PLL and do nothing else
11:59:26Zagort0mas: on coldfire, yes
12:00
12:00:09amiconnLinusN: I would expect lockups because the clock change is probably not glitch free
12:00:14t0mashm.. but I fear they didn't put that in the docs for no reason
12:00:41ZagorLinusN: on the other hand the docs doesn't say it's a bad idea. it just sais "to change PLL frequency you must use the bypass bit". but we don't want to change the PLL frequency.
12:00:50t0mas(is it legal in sweden to check how to original FW changes frequencies?)
12:01:14Zagort0mas: it's legal pretty much everywhere
12:01:29t0masok
12:01:42LinusNZagor: afaik, boosting is all about changing the pll frequency
12:02:18Zagorno, it's about changing the cpu frequency.
12:03:37t0masehm.. but to change the cpu frequency you change the output frequency of the PLL?
12:04:46ZagorPLL = Phase-Locked Loop. CPUDIV is after this loop.
12:05:06Zagorwe already do this on other targets, it's only coldfire that must wait for pll

12:08:55pondlifeJdGordon: This only happens after natural playback end, I think
12:09:07t0mas(I'm reading about how a PLL actually works)
12:09:11pondlifei.e. play a directory, with repeat and auto-change off.
12:09:12LinusNit all depends on how the pll circuitry uses the register values
12:09:45pondlifeWhen playback completes, the browser (reasonably) has track 1 selected. Then try to play track n (where n>1)
12:10:00LinusNi mean, does the hardware care about if the values are actually changed, or does any write to the register cause a pll relock?
12:10:07pondlifeI've only played one album so far, will see if it's reproducible shortly
12:10:12JdGordonanyone got a few short mp3 clips to test this with?

12:13:23JdGordonthat doesnt sound right
12:13:33JdGordonIts selecting the last track in the folder here
12:13:50t0masZagor: I guess the problem with this is that we don't know if it is doing weird things when you skip the bypass bit?
12:14:27t0masit could do weird things to the cpu.. (running it at a to high frequency for a very shot period of time?) that might just be enough to lock it up sometimes?
12:14:54t0mas(sometimes possibly being 1/1000000 times? which would create a "bug" we can't reproduce?)
12:16:34LinusNthat's what i fear
12:18:21t0masactually..
12:18:28t0mas"When the clock circuit is switched from “bypass” to “normal operation”, the switch-over is delayed until the PLL is locked."
12:18:37t0masit's the switch from bypass to normal they care about?

12:20:59t0masZagor: how do we wait for PLL lock? by switching from bypass to normal? or by checking the LOCK bit in PLLCR? (bit 31)
12:21:54JdGordonseems the WPS doesnt like lots of small tracks... 5s tracks are too fast for it to keep up (the playlist index)
12:22:28rasherJdGordon: Could that be related to issues when skipping quickly?
12:22:38JdGordonno idea
12:23:17t0masZagor: have you read this: "If this bit is written 0, the PLL is not used, and the crystal clock is sent directly to the CPU. Write this bit 0 before changing any other bit in this register."
12:23:38JdGordonpondlife: I cant reproduce your problm... im 99% sure its playing the track selected, and selecitng the last file in the dir when it finishes
12:24:01t0masZagor: especially the "Write this bit 0 before changing any other bit in this register." part? as CPUDIV is in the same register
12:24:35t0masand "After writing 1 to this bit, new setting will become active after a hardware controlled delay."
12:24:54t0masso I guess if you don't set it to 0 first.. the change just won't have any effect
12:24:57pondlifeJdGordon: I may have started playback from the database, then gone into the file browser during the album.
12:25:10pondlifeLeave it with me, I'll work out a proper repro recipe
12:25:33pondlifeAh, I had also done some dirskip earlier on - might be relevant
12:25:47JdGordonhmm... this is wierd.... the wps is showing the playlist number way too early for the next track
12:26:32JdGordonand by way too early, I mean with <3s left on the previous track
12:26:46pondlifeJdGordon: There are 2 different track transitions - one when the codec moves over, a second when the UI does.

12:29:35pondlifeReally, the codec-transition should be entirely internal to playback.c, not in playlist.c. But IIRC, that's not (yet) the case.
12:29:58JdGordonwern't we going to do something about this hwole playback mess in the new year? :)
12:31:10JdGordonit looks like it might be plaback doing the nautghy here
12:31:19JdGordontelling everyone its changed tracks too early
12:31:49kugelwell, it tells when the codec begins decoding the next track
12:33:02kugelwhich isn't entirely wrong I think. you can't really break the two track change transitions if you don't want the codec to wait on the UI
12:33:27JdGordonno.. I'm wrong.. the wps is updating too early... follow playlist isnt getting the next track untill its actually changed tracks
12:34:09kugelwhat might work is to send the event not when the codec changes track, but when the pcm buffer is empty for that track, but that needs some kind of seperating the pcm buffer
12:34:49kugel"pcm buffer is empty for that track" as in no parts of the previous track are in the pcm buffer anymore
12:35:21JdGordonI'm not sure how it works.. but the PLAYBACK_EVENT_TRACK_CHANGE event is sent at the correct time...
12:35:30JdGordonthat is what the wps should be using
12:35:51JdGordonassuming everyone is OK with forcing everything to use events more...
12:36:55pixelmaIIRC, this WPS shows track change too early is an old bug (I believe introduced with MoB?) which NicoP tried to fix last year but that fix introduced all kinds of skip tracks issues we had in the first half of last year (until around DevCon) and then he reverted that fix
12:37:20JdGordonwhat sort of skip track issues?
12:38:41pixelmasporadically - sometimes skip 3rd track in a playlist or sometimes a few tracks (probably as much as fit into the buffer) or if you skipped tracks manually you could "confuse" it even more
12:39:05JdGordonso bassically its the problem that playback is tied into the ui dangerously?
12:39:49pixelmaI had that skip 3rd track quite reliable in certain directories, never figured out what makes those directories so special compared to other ones where it didn't happem
12:39:53pixelmahappen too

12:50:04JdGordonif that makes any sense
12:50:14pondlifeplaylist_() functions are called and used for the UI, so I think they should sit on the UI side of the timing..

13:03:27pondlifeSounds overcomplicated
13:03:44pondlifeBetter to just not pause the PCM, but the playback

13:13:14JdGordonwe dont support internal cuesheets yet right? if we ever do, is it reasonable to assume that tracks with an internal cue would never have an external .cue file?
13:15:05JdGordonI'm thinking of a way to make .cue 99% transparent to the ui by moving it into playback, so a cue is checked for just like AA (if its enabled)

13:23:09ZagorJdGordon: is voice on pause a mixing problem?
13:23:43*ajb uploads v3 of the gitsvn version patch http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/9758
13:23:45linuxstbJdGordon: No, we don't support them currently. Why is it important that a file with an internal cue doesn't have an external one? We would need to decide which to prioritise in such cases, but I think that choice should just be internal to the metadata parsing code.
13:24:05Zagorcouldn't we just send voicebuf to dma directly if playback is paused?
13:25:48JdGordonZagor: iiuc its a problem that the audio pcm gets mixed in too early
13:27:00JdGordonlinuxstb: thinking aloud.. currently the id3 sturct has an int to say if there is a cue (and if its internal or not), I think I'd like to change that to a pointer to a cuesheet struct.. nothing really cares if its internal or not once its loaded...
13:27:16pixelmaJdGordon: if playback is responsible for cuesheets, wouldn't you need two different versions then? Not that I'd insist on cuesheet support on hwcodec but I imagine more differences would make everything harder to maintain
13:28:00t0masZagor: spotted the last quotes from the manual?
13:28:07amiconnZagor: It is partly a mixing problem and partly a problem how pausing works - it pauses the entire pcm
13:28:27t0masin the manual: "Write this bit 0 before changing any other bit in this register." and CPUDIV is in that register
13:28:33Zagoramiconn: exactly, so why don't we just send voicebuf if paused, unmixed?

13:29:04amiconnDon't ask me... I don't really understand how our pcm playback works
13:29:10JdGordonpixelma: CRAP! forgot about hwcodec again... I guess it shouldnt be too difficult to tack cuesheet searching onto it though
13:29:13t0masand "After writing 1 to this bit, new setting will become active after a hardware controlled delay." so it just won't activate when you don't write 1 to the bypass bit as I read it
13:29:19Zagort0mas: which quotes?
13:29:24t0masthose 2
13:29:31Zagorah :)
13:29:55t0masthose are a bit less debatable
13:29:57Zagorwell manuals are one thing, reality sometimes another. I still think it's worth experimenting with.
13:29:58JdGordonZagor: we still need to trash pcmbuf somehow... the codec needs somewhere to dump pcm before it can be sent to dma
13:30:18ZagorJdGordon: pcmbuf and voicebuf are different buffers
13:30:33JdGordonoh
13:30:53Zagorthey get mixed afterwards
13:31:19Zagoror rather, audiobuf and voicebuf are different buffers. they are both in pcmbuf...
13:31:31Zagorit is rather confusing
13:34:00linuxstbJdGordon: So you're planning on loading the cuesheet at the time the track is buffered?
13:34:11JdGordonI think so
13:34:21JdGordonor at least put it on the buffer like AA
13:34:56linuxstbPutting it on the buffer wouldn't make any sense unless it was done at buffering time...

13:36:58JdGordonyeah, the .cue would get loaded into the buffer but not parsed untill the track is actually started, only 1 .cue would ever be open at a time so 1 cuesheet struct will sit in static ram, the tracks id3 struct will either point to it or be NULL if its a regular track
13:37:13linuxstbWhy not parsed?
13:38:15JdGordonwell.. it could be, wastes less filebuf doing that..
13:39:03linuxstbShouldn't a parsed structure take less RAM than the text file?
13:39:14JdGordonyeah, thats what I meant
13:39:31*JdGordon is getting sleepy
13:40:02linuxstbAnd that also makes it easier to store different kind of sub-track information - the metadata parser for that format could fill the cue struct with anything.

15:51:57Unhelpfulajb: i'm inclined to agree with you... what i was thinking was r<svn rev>-<build date>-<extra>, where extra is git commit ID or an indicator that the repository has local changes for svn, but maybe it's best to take the discussion to the mail list. more devs will see it there, and it works a little better for talking about things with devs who don't happen to be there when you are.
15:52:00mcuelenaerehowever, it seems like the device adds 13 bytes of 00's

18:14:44mcuelenaereit just needs someone to do the last bit

18:14:59mcuelenaereundertakingyou: then it'll require you to do quite some learning I guess
18:15:38undertakingyouThat is what it looks like. So with a zvm can it be recovered if the firmware doesn't work or does it just brick?
18:15:50mcuelenaerekugel: currently the main problem(s) are the PIC (which controls the buttons and other input/output stuff) and USB I guess
18:16:04mcuelenaereand completing CFS
18:16:13kugelCFS?
18:16:17mcuelenaereCreative File System
18:16:27kugelah, the homebrewed one ;)
18:16:30mcuelenaereyep :)
18:16:35kugelwhat are the problems with the PIC?

18:17:08mcuelenaerekugel: it runs Creative code, so it isn't any standardised/documented protocol
18:17:16mcuelenaere(the main CPU communicates with the PIC through I²C)
18:17:26kugeluhh, terrible
18:17:31mcuelenaereso one needs to RE the PIC's code
18:17:54mcuelenaereand I really don't like to do that
18:18:12kugelI have to say: "No, thanks" too ;)
18:18:18mcuelenaere:P
18:18:29mcuelenaerewell, I remember there was a simulator around
18:19:03mcuelenaerebut still, the PIC has all sorts of low level abilities (which I don't have knowledge of); so I think simulating it will need a really good similar environment to work

21:30:11Zagorso the codecs that don't include codecs.h themselves (but instead rely on codeclib.h to do it) don't get that dependency
21:30:19mcuelenaereso it waits 2 seconds before sending 2F again
21:30:26gevaertsmcuelenaere: maybe try removing the ep_stall()
21:30:49amiconnah

21:35:07gevaertsok. I checked the UMS spec, and while I'm not sure if that stall is really wrong, it's at least optional
21:35:42*gevaerts wonders about the "cannot format" though
21:35:53mcuelenaerewell perhaps my usb driver implemented stall not entirely according to the rockbox norms?

22:32:50Unhelpfulevilnick: not moving, exactly, but offering in pluginlib on targets where it's not useful in core.
22:33:43evilnickSo would that speed up the usage? Or reduce the binsize? (I'm not an expert but would like to learn more than I currently know)
22:33:44Unhelpfulresizing to mono produces bad results, and besides, we don't, to my knowledge, offer albumart on anything mono - so the resizer is disabled, saving about 1KB or so for the resizer itself, and maybe another .5KB in support code in the loader.
22:34:00Unhelpfulso you're volunteering to maintain my work? ;)

23:07:28Unhelpfulthe uintptr_t is avoidable, though, one could convert to unsigned int, calculate addr % align, and subtract that from the original pointer, to align down
23:08:25amiconnUsing uintptr_t is the clean way, imo

23:35:18kugelUnhelpful: test_resize could test the core resizer
23:35:18Unhelpfuli'd really like to propose a new name for at least the latter of those functions, preferably *before* it gets more than one caller.
23:35:19kugel?
23:36:11Unhelpfulkugel: maybe... maybe merge it with the greylib resizer test? test the greylib plugin on greyscale targets, and test "native" scaler output on color ones?
23:36:17kugelor does the core only support resize on load, i.e. not resizing an already loaded one?
23:36:34Unhelpfulkugel: i don't like "resize_on_load" as a name, it's not really a very good description of what it does.
23:37:02kugelwell, I didn't think it can only resize on load
23:37:23Unhelpfulwhat it does is resize any image that can be fetched in chunks via a callback with the right signature. it needn't be while loading from disk, and it't needn't be bitmap.
23:37:36domonokykugel: pong ?
23:37:38kugelI used test_resize resize once, and I know you can resize it "on the fly" using the scrollwheel for example
23:38:09kugelUnhelpful: ah, that sounds more like what I thought about it :)
23:38:30kugeldomonoky: did I understand correctly, you are able to read the REC button with the code?
23:38:40kugelthe fuze's button code I mean
23:39:09domonokykugel: i dont know if i can read rec, the reading are just too unstable.
23:39:41Unhelpfulif you added an output plugin for rgb24, and a scaler frontend for it, you could load a 24-bit bitmap into memory, and scale it to various sizes, producing new native bitmaps... for example. resize_on_load seems like the kind of name that will keep devs from trying to do something like that with it.

23:40:44kugelother than that, I have no idea why this code is so unstable on e200v2
23:41:26kugelUnhelpful: is it named "resize_on_load" anywhere in the code?
23:41:35kugelif yes, that would be bad I suppose
23:41:46Unhelpfulthat's the current name of the scaler function.
23:43:17kugeldomonoky: have you looked at the commit where my patch got in? maybe the guy missed something essential
23:43:17domonokykugel: i printed the values, but most of the time i only got all bits higher then 11 set to 0, so i can not say for sure if rec is in the bits > 12 i very seldom see them. Something is still wrong on e200v2.
23:43:36Unhelpfulmaybe scale_image_callback?

23:45:33Unhelpfulbitmap_ or image_... i just wonder if bitmap_ would make people think too much of lcd-native bitmaps, or the bitmap file format.
23:46:13kugelwell, it can essentially only resize bitmaps (either those on the disk, or native ones in the ram), so it's correct
23:46:28kugelnot?
23:46:59kugelI think of bitmap as in uncompressed rgb565 (or whatever bit depth) image data
23:47:19Unhelpfulit can resize whatever you can feed it. the ppm viewer could quite easily include a scaler frontend, if the backend were exposed in the plugin API
23:47:21kugelupto 24bit, thatis
23:47:37kugelit cannot resize jpeg, can it?
23:48:17Unhelpfulonly if we add a jpeg loader that provides the right callback ;)
23:48:20kugel"whatever you feed it" sounds like you can mp3's or text files to it
23:48:34kugel+pass
23:49:10kugeljust to clear things up: what are the requirements to the data passed to (leaving the callback alone)
23:49:12kugel?
23:49:18 Join jhulst [0] (n=jhulst@unaffiliated/jhulst)
23:49:56Unhelpfulbasically, you give it an output bitmap structure, an input size, and a callback. the callback will provide 8-bit-per-channel data, either RGB or greyscale, depending on whether the target has a color LCD
23:50:33kugelso the callback is actually resizing?
23:51:25Unhelpfulno, the scaler resizes, but you don't pass it any actual image data when you call it. it calls the callback to get the source image data.

23:52:12kugelyes, and that feeds the scaler with uncompressed image data?
23:53:02Unhelpfulyes, but the point is that there can be more than one implementation of that callback
23:53:37kugelwell, of course
23:53:45kugelthat's the point of callbacks, isn't it? ;)
23:54:06ShadowGazerCan anyone here help me install rockbox on my sansa e280? It's version 1.0 I made sure when I bought it. The rockbox util won't recognize it. And when I try to install it manually, it'll reboot like its installing but goes right back to the main screen like nothing was installed
23:54:30kugelso, I got this all right. the scaler needs uncompressed image data (which is bitmap, to me)
23:54:32Unhelpfulso the scaler does only handle 8-bit-per-channel uncompressed data itself, yes. i suppose bitmap_scale or bitmap_resize would be ok.
