#rockbox log for 2009-02-19

00:00:19gartralumm, the page at http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/PluginIndex says no plugins are loaded too the Ipod 3g >.> is this correct, or a mistake?

00:20:34rasherI guess keeping the PluginIndex matrix is still valuable
00:21:46LloreanI don't think we want to remove *all* plugin pages
00:21:56LloreanThe manual currently refers to some of them for more complex stuff (video encoding)
00:22:03 Quit dfkt (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
00:22:16LloreanBut we could drop them with say "VideoEncodingForRockbox" and "DictionarySetup" type pages instead of "PluginDict" etc

00:30:26rasherThe index page should be kept (more or less as-is), and pages that are referenced in the manual should be split out

00:32:45pixelmathe index page is generated from the PluginBlah subpages and their checkmark list in the end, so you probably can't just delete PluginBlah and keep the index as-is. Or do I overlook something?
00:33:33rasherNo, you don't
00:33:51rasherIt's a matter of re-creating the table staticly

00:45:21rasherNo sense in changing that though, I guess.
00:45:45gartraltoo bad there isn't a "mass replace X with Y" function too TWiki...
00:45:58LloreanIt'd be too dangerous anyway.
00:46:09LloreanYou get it replacing examples in guidelines of "what not to do" and such like.
00:46:20gartralyou can limit it too Admins Only
00:46:40LloreanDangerous in the sense of "even someone who's thought it through can very easily make stupid mistakes and not realize it for years"

01:25:14Unhelpfulsharperguy: if there's something you want a plugin to do, it will probably be easier to write a plugin to do it than a plugin to interpret a python script to do it. this is likely true even if you want ten or one hundred new plugins. :)

01:43:38Jetonii've re-installed Rockbox, no help.
01:44:09pixelmaJetoni: sounds like http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/9827 to me
01:44:09Jetonihere's the mp3 file that causes the data abort http://feeds.thisamericanlife.org/~r/talpodcast/~5/540561563/374.mp3
01:45:09Jetonii believe so , not sure thogh.
01:45:37JetoniBut this happens mostly with large files(podcasts), maybe the buffer fills in.

01:57:42Zagorthe very definition of "work in progress" is "does not work yet", i.e. "has bugs and/or missing functionality"
01:58:43FlynDiceZagor: I understand that so is it just forum posts and changes to the wiki then?

02:09:44Unhelpfulthoughts on adding resize to buffer_alloc: on resize down, obviously, just chop the end f the block, and add a proper head to the new freed block. on resize up, check if a free block follows, and expand into it, else compact and try to move the block to end of allocation, freeing the old block, else (ugh) memmove everything after the block, move alloc_end, and walk the chain of following blocks to update their handle pointers

02:28:06isthatallhmm, ok, I'm not a linux noob, but I just want to delete, the .rockbox folder and it won't let because it's read-only. I have tried to chmod it but it doesn't allow that either, there are weird filenames in there from corruption I'm guessing, filenames with crazy characters, etc... I've tried to chown the folder to have absolute control over it, nope. the rbutil won't remove rockbox either, any ideas?

04:06:35TNTokay thats fine. i'm trying to install rockbox on my ipod but the bootloader will not install.

04:07:16TNTyes. i've ran rockbox and linux before but uninstalled it.
04:07:24TNTand i want it back lol.
04:07:47cool_walking_Are you using Rockbox Utility? Because versions 1.0.9 and 1.0.8 have a bug where they can't install the bootloader on Sansas and iPods.
04:08:21TNTi tried the rockbox utility and it didnt work then i tried ipodpatcher and it didnt work.

10:08:33linuxstbAlthough it misses out the very beginnings - everyone thinking it would be next to impossible to implement software USB on PP, then someone (MrH?) figuring out that the USB hardware was register-compatible with something that had docs.
10:08:47B4gderhm indeed
10:08:52B4gderI should add something about that

10:21:42UnhelpfulFS #9919 updated with my latest work on pictureflow buffer_alloc. i'd still like to see about stopping playback, and moving the end of the audio buffer to steal a largish piece of RAM to do allocations from, without having to rely entirely on rb->bufalloc or the (rather small) plugin buffer
10:21:43B4gderI try to do my own, but I also borrow them from elsewhere when in need
10:22:58Unhelpfulthat's a nice usb plug, that is ;)
10:23:43B4gderthat's an example of the latter ;-)

10:38:28UnhelpfulLinusN: i see them as being useful for different purposes... malloc is useful where we can't reasonably remove the use of the malloc API, or where moving the data is unsafe (multiple cores using the same buffer, for instance). the buffer_alloc allocator can do things we can't do with malloc, such as completely reclaim space lost to fragmentation by compacting the allocation buffer. i see reasons for using both in different places, and i
10:38:28Unhelpful thought that compaction would be more important in pictureflow than the other concerns.
10:39:31LinusNUnhelpful: i think both may be useful. i think the malloc() pool could be allocated using buffer_alloc
10:39:42 Join rocko [0] (n=rocko@c-67-167-117-152.hsd1.il.comcast.net)
10:41:51UnhelpfulLinusN: i don't think so, unless you want to lose most of the features malloc offers, besides compatibility with an API used widely in other codebases. any time an allocation is performed, any allocated buffers may be moved. pointers will be left pointing at the wrong data if not updated, which is why code using buffer_alloc needs to call buf_get_data if "something else" may have touched the allocator.
10:43:28LinusNyou mean that a buffer allocated with buffer_alloc() may move at any time??????
10:43:34LinusNhow so?
10:45:11Unhelpfulnot at *any* time, but only when there are allocations following a free. buf_free creates holes in the pool, and if no individual hole is large enough to provide the needed memory for a later allocation, buf_alloc will compact the pool by shifting everything down in address as far as possible, and then try to allocate again from the remaining space.
10:48:39Unhelpfulthis is why buf_alloc, like rb->bufalloc, returns handles rather than pointers. the handle can be used to fetch the current address of an allocation, and the design is optimized to do this quickly, in some cases at the expense of a bit of space efficiency.

12:22:26linuxstbDoes anyone know if the random freezing when connecting usb (without the Rockbox stack) also happens with the Rockbox stack?
12:23:27gevaertsI've never seen it
12:25:51advcomp2019on my e200 with the usb test build, my wheel did not work after unplugging it but the buttons worked.. i had that happen only once so far
12:26:42UnhelpfulNico_P: thanks. an alternative (which might be useful for other things) would be making bufalloc, possibly only when passed a special flag, force just enough audio data out from the end of the buffer for the alloc to succed. then it could make allocations that way, possibly mixed with ones made from the plugin buffer, without having to stop playback at all.
12:27:46linuxstbgevaerts: (and others) What do you think about enabling the usb stack now, to give it as long as possible for testing (and fixing of any bugs that are found) before the 3.2 release? If your tracer tests give worrying results, it could always be reverted prior to release.

12:43:33JdGordonI woudn't actually object to postponing 3.2 by one or two weeks to make sure usb gets in....
12:43:38LloreanWe have 3.1 for people who want to avoid risk, and bleeding edge for people who want to try new stuff.
12:43:54JdGordonif we asume peple only upgrade on releases its a huge improvemnt which people shouldnt wait another 3 months for
12:43:55*Llorean doesn't think we should ever postpone a release again.
12:44:06LloreanIf we aren't confident in USB when the time comes, we drop it and it can wait for 3.3
12:44:07*Bagder agrees with Llorean on both usb and postponing

12:47:06LloreanThree months isn't a long time considering people have been putting up with reboot-USB for much, much longer. I don't think "trying to squeeze it in one week earlier" is a good enough reason to break our release schedule.

13:19:55pixelmait doesn't reboot on USB connection while Rockbox is already running, I mean
13:20:49jaykaywhen connected to a charger, it doesnt, right - but when connecting to a computer it does
13:20:57jaykayimo everythings fine
13:22:53LloreanWell, if his H100 really isn't rebooting on USB insert, something isn't fine. H100s don't have USB chargers.
13:22:58pixelmajust saying that I don't doubt the bug report this much
13:22:59LloreanBut that'd be a separate bug.
13:23:21pixelmaH100?
13:24:28Llorean"My iriver H100, when plugging in a charger or usb cable, will continue playing in rockbox and charge the battery."
13:24:40*Llorean doubts this very much.
13:25:45*pixelma was more focuesed to the original bug report
13:26:20LloreanThe original bug report sounds like he's simply complaining that it reboots on charger insertion.
13:26:24pixelmaprobably "on"
13:26:43LloreanThe hang is bad, but he complains about the existence of the reboot in general in the comments.
13:27:24Llorean"the USB cable caused a reboot into original firmware, and if that is what still happens why has the website changed from unsupported to supported."
13:27:34pixelmaI thought it was about the hang which definitely existed for me on c200 as well in *some* build, it's just that I haven't tested for a while
13:27:50LloreanThe impression I get is that he's not getting the hang now, just the reboot.
13:28:00LloreanAs of his last comment.
13:29:11jaykaywhy does it reboot?
13:29:21jaykayas i said my e200 doesnt do that
13:29:28LloreanYou probably have a different charger than him
13:29:29jaykay(when connecting it to a charger)

13:52:24jaykayi do not really need a old manual, it was just for comparison with the "new" one (r20034)

IMO the next step would be for you (as the (C) holder) to change the license of sendfirm_win.c to something more permissive (BSD?) so we can link to MS's lib. You could also commit those emails (e.g. in a README, or a comment in sendfirm_win.cpp
19:03:13linuxstb(assuming you're happy to use BSD of course...)
19:03:20mcuelenaereyeah, sure no problem :)
19:03:42linuxstbSo sendfirm is also being used for the Zen?
19:04:12mcuelenaereyes
19:04:18mcuelenaereit's a generic MTP firmware upload program
19:04:34mcuelenaereit could be used as a replacement for sending the OF
19:06:35linuxstbOK, so if "someone" writes a beast-specific install tool, we should keep sendfirm around as a generic tool.

22:01:25`AssassinWhy do certain songs in my library always play for a few seconds with quality worse than normal and produce a data abort crash? I'm using an iPod Video (30 gb) with the latest rockbox build.
22:02:25gevaertsamiconn: because it needs comparatively big amounts of memory (32+K), and it only needs them while connected.
22:04:57gevaertsIt grabs the buffer using audio_get_buffer()

22:09:27amiconnThat may be the problem, but it shouldn't
22:09:30jhMikeSafter audio_get_buffer happens, the only thing could cause playback to access anything is more messages.
22:10:24amiconnaudio_get_buffer() means playback has to back off immediately, and not try to grab it again unless started explicitly. And then it has to rebuffer everything

23:03:00saratogaprobably broken files then
23:03:19`AssassinYes Llorean.
23:03:20saratogayou could try copying one such file to a different folder with nothing else in it [to rule out buffering bugs] and then playing it
23:03:30saratogaif you get teh same crash, then its a broken file
23:03:34saratogaif not, then its a rockbox bug
23:03:39jhMikeSbertrik: I take it it's not from the DMA change since you were querying on what was holding it back and said "no problems"
23:03:40n1syeah, but we shouldn't crash on them even if they are broken
23:03:44 Quit Thundercloud (Remote closed the connection)
23:03:54n1sso either way it's a rockbox bug
23:04:05fmlMassa: when using the DB, it's possible to skip some directories by placing a special file into it. Are you sure you don't have such a file in the root dir? See wiki/manual for details.
23:04:15jhMikeSbroken rockbox files caused Mouser_X's beast not to boot properly
23:04:17bertrikjhMikeS, no saw it without the DMA patch too earlier this week / last weekend
23:04:40bertrikseems to happen at the end of buffering on specific albums
23:06:07jhMikeSI had a few mysterious ones myself after not having seen them for a looooong time but not enough to associate it with particular thing
23:06:09`AssassinI'm not sure why any of these files would be broken. They work fine on my computer unless something happened during the transfer to my iPod. :|
23:06:23fmlkugel: hello. This is a tiny matter compared to the great work being done but I sent you a message re. inaccurate comment about the y field in the progress bar struct. Did you notice it?
23:06:40gevaerts`Assassin: what codec do they use?
23:06:40Massafml: I don't know - will have a look; although the behaviour is really strange: when I try to open the database it says "Building database... 12981 found (STOP for return)" but then also does nothing...
23:06:55kugelfml: I noticed your "complain"
23:07:04Llorean`Assassin: I'd recommend also always using the most up to date build when reporting issues here, anyway. You're always going to be asked to try the same test on the current build if it's an issue that needs further investigation.
23:07:07kugelbut in C, 0 is positive, so it's all fine
23:07:22jhMikeSn1s: my personal philosophy is to treat anything put into the metadata parsers and database as random gibberish with a correct file extension/name.
23:07:30fmlMassa: try to delete all the index files (don't know exactly where the are, in .rockbox?)
23:07:56fmlMassa: I don't use the DB myself, just telling you what I have read/heard here
23:08:09bluebrotherthe database files are .rockbox/*.tcd
23:08:52n1sjhMikeS: yeah, we can't really assume much about metadata :) I think that it's ok to reject files that are obviously broken and not jump through hoops to try to play them though
23:08:56fmlMassa: if that doesn't help try to look for weird files (very long name or bad tags)
23:09:13jhMikeS.cfg and .nvram should probably have the same treament. any setting that is invalid should be clamped or defaulted.
23:09:18Massafml: I already deleted the *.tcd files
23:09:25`AssassinOne of the files in question is an MP3 and iTunes says "Encoded with: unknown"
23:09:52bluebrotherMassa: have you chkdsk /f the drive? I had issues with the database recently and they were related to filesystem issues
23:10:04aviswhats the name of the rockbox general channel ?
23:10:24fmlMassa: can you build a sim? I'd then try to build the DB on the sim. There you'll hopefully get some debug messages.
