00:11:39rasherZagor: oh dear
00:11:47rasherThat's a bit of a tragic diff
00:12:19Zagorrasher: well, lastultime is used in the scheduling. it's just not interesting in the log.

00:13:43LambdaCalculus37ej0rge: Okay, let me know how it works for you. Some of the plugins may crap out when building because of missing graphics.

00:50:17amiconnThis increment is no longer 01h 15min like it was at some point, but just 10 minutes, which means the minute marker idea needs adjustment
00:52:22amiconnEither we switch to 01h increments, which means files which are frequently written to will increment much faster, or we use :11:11, :22:22 etc (12 minutes increase on average, i.e. not using :00:00)

01:00:19JdGordon|why such large arbitrary movements? why not just 1 minute?
01:00:28JdGordon|the point is to just make sure the time changes... isnt it?
01:01:44 Quit GeekShadow (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
01:06:06amiconnIf we'd use one minute, we couldn't set a kinda obvious marker anymore
01:09:41JdGordon|yeah, I still dont see the point of a marker thats not really obvious... the date is going to be wrong no matter what it is so you're just misleading the user...
01:10:02*amiconn already explained most aspects
01:11:12amiconnWe need to increment to indicate change. We must never adjust the timestamp backwards. Both points together mean that we cannot use the date as a marker for pre-existing files when changing them in rockbox
01:12:00amiconnThat leaves the possibility to use the time (minutes + seconds) as a marker that the timestamp might not be correct
01:13:08amiconnThis is independent of the choice for the initial date of new files. In this case I just *prefer* it to be roughly correct (i.e. using the build date)

10:35:28mtlinuxstb: Yep.
10:35:57*linuxstb needs to search for his single atrac-in-rm file...
10:36:49n1sJdGordon: also s/wps_buffer_alloc/skin_buffer_alloc/ in two comments ;)
10:37:06mtlinuxstb: Or - http://samples.mplayerhq.hu/real/AC-atrc/ :)
10:37:49linuxstbmt: I'm just looking the list of codecs on this page - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RealAudio - does Rockbox support both raac (LC-AAC) and racp (HE-AAC) ?
10:38:58mtlinuxstb: It should but I hadn't really found racp samples for testing.
10:39:32linuxstbOK, so the code is there, but it's untested?
10:40:45mtYes, I guess it's a quesion of libfaad with he-aac though since parsing and packet extraction shouldn't be different.
10:41:13linuxstbThe aac-in-mp4 codec plays he-aac, so it should be OK.
10:41:18markunisn't HE-AAC disabled on some targets?
10:42:21*linuxstb doesn't know.
10:43:12*linuxstb wonders why that wikipedia article excludes mp3-in-rm
10:44:14linuxstbSo there seems to be 10 codecs used in realaudio, and when atrac3 is working, Rockbox will support 5. Not bad ;)
10:44:53markunreally good in fact :)
10:45:24gevaerts50% is barely a passing grade in schools :)
10:45:26linuxstbAnd the first two should be possible as well - "lpcj" and "28.8" have ffmpeg decoders IIRC.
10:45:56mtsipro too has an ffmpeg decoder.
10:46:11markunmt: then what are you waiting for :P
10:46:19mtmp3 : only one sample is known to exist, that's why it's excluded.
10:46:24linuxstbGreat! You have 3 days left until the firm pencils-down date...
10:47:01mtmarkun: :D .
10:47:01gevaertsDo we support ape-in-rm?
10:47:07linuxstbSo really it's just realaudio lossless that's missing. And I would doubt many people use that...
10:47:19markungevaerts: we could beat RM to their own game! :)
10:47:27gevaertsmarkun: exactly!
10:47:34gevaerts"no samples are known to exist"
10:47:44markunwe can make some samples
10:48:20mtlinuxstb: I guess also ralf isn't much used yes. Only one sample on mplayer.
10:49:04mtgevaerts: ape-in-rm ? :)
10:49:10gevaertsdoesn't matter. If there's a codec around that's called Ralf, we obviously have to support it
10:49:14*linuxstb thought he recalled a radio station streaming things in mp3-in-rm, but it was actually mp3-in-asf
10:49:40linuxstbA friend of Sid's?
10:49:41gevaertsmt: why not? :)
10:49:42mtgevaerts: You do ralf then. :P
10:50:49*gevaerts shuts up before he starts promising things :)
10:50:59mtBecause ape can't be in rm. :)
10:51:17gevaertswhy not?
10:51:32linuxstbWell, it would have to be called "rape"..
10:51:46mtYikes ! That's one good reason ..

12:43:04TorneEr, I just read that thread, and it's.. wrong
12:43:28TorneTelling cygwin to translate line endings is a really bad idea
12:44:27TheCoolGmanI just wish you guys would still give out the current build

12:46:31Torneif yo ucan manage to compile it under cygwin, why is it so hard to use svn?
12:46:56TheCoolGmanIt's not Im issues try to learn to use SVN iwth Cygwin
12:47:06TorneIf you stop using tortoise the problem will go away
12:47:22TheCoolGmanAnd the Daily build source IS STILL r21932
12:47:27TorneUsing cygwin's CR/LF line ending mode is not recommended by the cygwin folks because it breaks loads of other stuff
12:47:41TheCoolGmanyeah I notice that when patching
12:47:42Tornerun cygwin setup and pick to install subversion
12:47:48Tornethen just type svn co svn://svn.rockbox.org/rockbox/trunk rockbox
12:47:51Tornein a cygwin window.
12:47:54Torneyou will get the latest source.
12:48:18TheCoolGmanShould I use that instead of Trotise SVN
12:50:17Tornethat should do it with the right line endings, yes
12:50:30Tornei can't test it atm though, this machine can't connect to svn://
12:50:52TheCoolGmanSo I have the setup open and all I have are these opitons Unix/Binary or DOS/text
12:54:50TheCoolGmanhello?
12:56:21krazykitTheCoolGman, have patience in waiting for an answer. only so many people actually use cygwin
12:57:12Torneok, look. you already tried to rerun setup and change the line ending mode, right?
12:57:16Torneopen a cygwin window and type mount
12:57:19TheCoolGmanReally? I didn't know
12:57:44Tornedo all the mount points say binmode at the end
12:58:00Tornealso, I am at work so pardon me if I don't answer you instantaneously :)
12:58:25TheCoolGmanHold so chose Unix/Binary? in setup
12:58:51TorneDon't choose anything in setup
12:58:54TorneExit setup
12:58:57TheCoolGmanokay
12:59:06TorneRun a cygwin window and type mount, and see if the lines all say binmode or not

13:05:40linuxstbTorne: If using CR/LF mode isn't recommended, then I guess we should remove that wiki page saying how to use tortoisesvn, or replace it with a page saying not to use it...
13:05:50Tornelinuxstb: Cygwin doesn't handle this consistently
13:05:55linuxstbBut presumably petur is using it fine, otherwise he wouldn't have added that wiki page...
13:06:01TorneCR/LF mode only works for apps which actually open files in text mode
13:06:06Tornemost unix programs don't bother :)
13:06:07linuxstbTorne: I'm not surprised... I can't imagine how it can.
13:06:31TorneI don't know of a way to make tortoise use a specific line ending
13:06:33linuxstbI never knew there was such a thing in Unix...
13:06:42Tornelinuxstb: there is, it's in the ANSI C API :)
13:06:53Torneit's just a no-op on UNIX
13:07:04Tornewell, normally.
13:07:20linuxstbDo you mean the O_BINARY flag? Or something else?
13:07:46linuxstbBut anyway, we're straying off-topic...
13:07:49Tornewell, that and "rb" as fopen() :)
13:07:51Tornebut yes
13:08:06TorneI have heard nothing but tales of woe about cygwin installs that use crlf
13:08:31Torneif i recall correctly, if you set cygwin to unix mode and just run cygwin's command line svn, it will check out with unix line endings
13:08:42Torneand everything will be happy and great until you come to use a win32 editor to edit files :)
13:08:58linuxstbYes, which is exactly what TheCoolGman would have got with the source archive.
13:09:01Tornebut i can't test this right now because i can't access svn:// urls from behind this wirewall
13:09:14Torneand i can't find an http svn repo anywhere to test which has eol-style:native ;)
13:09:25TheCoolGmanI'm suprised you are able to use IRC
13:09:45TorneI can HTTP CONNECT to anywhere I like, but svn doesn't know how to do that.
13:09:54TheCoolGmanAh
13:09:55Torneand i cba to install a tunneling program
13:10:35TheCoolGmanI'm almost done downloading the latest build
13:10:36Tornelinuxstb: anyway your advice doesn't seem to work; bash redirection doesn't open files in text mode
13:10:48Torneso echo > foo.txt doesn't tell you what line ending mode you have. :)
13:11:09linuxstbTorne: It was just a guess... If that doesn't work, then indeed cygwin's CR+LF handling is broken.
13:11:41Tornelinuxstb: they're doing their best to comply with the relevant standards.. :) They can't do CR/LR translation for all file IO or it would be impossible to work with actual binary files.

16:31:52gevaertsin a way
16:32:28pamauryI have some horrible news about the usb_serial bug
16:35:04pamauryMy tests suggest that (at least on my sansa e200) there is a direct link between the 96 limit of the usb_drv_arc and the needs_exclusive_storage flag
16:35:45pamauryI have rewritten a usb driver and it fail to send a >=97 packet BUT if I tweak usb.c and usb_core.c to grant is exclusive storage THEN it succeeds !
16:36:07gevaertsah, that explains things
16:36:12pamaurywhich mean that with exclusive storage I have a working a usb_serial driver
16:36:24pamauryhow is this link possible ?
16:37:12gevaertsbecause needs_exclusive_storage also triggers cpu boost
16:37:32pamaurywhat is cpu boost ? it scales cpu frequency ?
16:38:05gevaertsyes. Normally we run at 30MHz, but large packets don't work then. Boosting makes it run at 80MHz, which we do for storage for precisely this reason
16:38:13*gevaerts should have resalised this before
16:38:58 Join funman [0] (n=fun@rockbox/developer/funman)
16:39:46pamauryIt took me some time to realize it, only when I completely destroyed the usb_storage driver I realized the difference
16:40:37gevaertswell, we now know what's going on. I suspect that just limiting the amount transmitted is the right solution as long as we only do outgoing traffic
16:45:43pamauryOk, I'll come back later, hope this information will help. Perhaps a commit would be useful to change the comment is usb_serial. Also determine on which target it's needed.
16:46:38gevaertsIf you feel bored, you could play with the stream disable bit in REG_USBMODE to see if it makes a difference
16:47:00gevaertsI probably won't do much on this today. I'm travelling tomorrow, and I need to pack
16:47:44gevaertspamaury: if you can find MCF5251RM.pdf, it seems to describe the same USB controller in a bit more detail for some registers

17:06:32JdGordonn1s: the reason its bufalloced is because I still like the idea of (when this is finished) allowing the user to decide (or the theme based on previous boots) how much is needed.. really there is no need to waste xKB on a 2mb target when only 1/3 of it is being used...
17:06:59 Join BryanJacobs [0] (n=bryanjac@128.151.67.243)
17:07:10JdGordonalso there really is no difference between bufallocing a buffer, or just making a static one..
17:07:36gevaertsbufalloc hides it from the delta table :)
17:08:09LambdaCalculus37My Clip is behaving a little strange. I just updated my build on it, and now it shuts off immediately after I turn it on and it displays the Rockbox logo for about half a second before shutting off.
17:08:16n1sJdGordon: ok, makes sense, to me buffer_alloc implies we might want different sizes so i think for a static size a static buffer is clearer
17:08:18LambdaCalculus37Any attempts to turn it on aren't working.

17:31:10JdGordonwell... too bad.. the code you want to add to get around that issue is not worth it... if the recorder is the only target with that isssue, and only when its in upsidedown mode (1 person *maybe* on the planet) then big bloody deal
17:31:10kugeland there was an issue with at least one of the h100 remotes also
17:32:56pixelmaif I remember it can flip the buttons but one of the then needed combos wouldn't be possible in case the original way of operating the quickscreen there wouldn't work (electrical restrictins), not sure though
17:33:15kugelJdGordon: I completely agree, but amiconn and Llorean objected for that reason
17:33:46pixelmaeh... if the original way of operating it would be restored
17:34:34kugelisn't flipping buttons handled in software as for any other target?
17:35:46pixelmawell, flipping buttons is not the problem itself. Impossible combos due to hardware restrictions is
17:36:19kugelthere are no combos involved in the quickscreen IIUC
17:37:01kugeljust plain up/down/left/right (and play to exit) −− for the recorder
17:37:01pixelmathe original way of operating the quickscreen was quite different...
17:37:13pixelmaand quicker

17:46:44motorbiti calibrated it
17:46:44amiconnThis has nothing to do with display flipping
17:46:52motorbitits still unusable
17:47:31kugeloh
17:47:41kugelI don't think that's a blocker for a top item though
17:49:17amiconnIt is, if you consider the original, really quick way to operate the quickscreen
17:49:24pixelmamotorbit: did you try setting the "absolute" (direct) touch screen mode? Just a guess, I don't know much about those targets
17:49:36motorbitits unsupported for the d2 atm
17:50:00kugelamiconn: but I don't consider this way

17:50:07motorbitanother quesiton is:
17:50:23 Quit cg_ (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
17:50:35motorbitthe d2 original firmware is having a problem sorting id tags by id tag tracknumber if an album has more than 30 tracks.
17:50:44motorbitso i removed them along with the id tag filename
17:50:52kugeland even then, just meaning the up item is unusable isn't worth useless extra code for all other targets IMO
17:51:05amiconnhmm?
17:51:18motorbitthat works verry well with the original firmewar, however rockbox will only show "no filename" when using the database
17:51:37motorbitis there a way to make the database show the filename instead of a "missing tag" error?

17:56:51funmanm200v4 also I think

17:57:52motorbitsad
17:58:05funman"database" really is a "tag databse"
17:58:08motorbitso i can either tag them for original firmware or for rb :/
17:58:10pixelmaor use the filebrowser
17:58:13funmanfor filename browsing you can use the file browser

19:29:02Unhelpfuli think i've got it, just duplicating wps_parser.c as skin_parser.c made the patch apply... it's rather odd that the duplication of the entire file isn't part of what svn put in the patch. it should be treating it as the insertion of all lines in the file, rather than as the difference between the changed skin_parser.c and the original wps_parser.c

21:49:00JdGordon|Unhelpful: which uses do you have in mind?
21:49:06JesterHi. Sorry if this has been answered somewhere but I couldn't find it in the FAQ or google. I'm wondering if installing rockbox on an ipod will affect the ability of external devices to control the ipod. For example a car audio unit might require a certain firmware on an ipod to be able to control it, so it's not far-fetched to think rockbox might destroy that feature
21:49:18Unhelpfulok, so, my argument i guess here is that a dynamic allocator is a *good* thing when it's not used thoughlessly - so that themes, for example, always take up the space they need.
21:49:32JdGordon|Jester: bing is better :)
21:49:46gevaertsJdGordon|: please stay on-topic!
21:49:50Unhelpful(and no more)
21:49:51JdGordon|Jester: yes, rockbox hasnt had much luck with external controllers... but its getting better
21:50:11JesterJdGordon|: that's too bad
21:50:21funmanJester: you can choose to run the OF anytime instead of rockbox (dual boot), so you could use your external devices with the OF
21:50:22Unhelpfulhowever, you'd still be able to boot the OF for that purpose... although of course the OF can only see files loaded with itunes, and can only play certain formats.
21:50:41gevaertsJester: there's only one way to find out if your particular device works with rockbox
21:51:01funmansome devices work with rockbox, so nothing says yours shouldn't
21:51:32Jesterfunman: really. That's pretty cool, unfortunately my main use for rockbox is to be able to play flac files in my car in combination with an audio unit that can control the ipod :/
21:51:46funmanjust try
21:51:53UnhelpfulJdGordon: another case i had where we'd get an improvement from bufalloc-as-malloc is cover art. right now we load album art for each file. we *could* rather easily see if the file in question has been loaded, and re-use it, but right now we don't have a way to free that single buffer usefully - unless we could compact the buffer. :)
21:52:14Unhelpfulthis would save AA_size * (num_tracks - 1) when loading a whole album
21:53:09JdGordon|for that case, I rekon adding some smarts to buffering.c would be a better solution
21:53:21 Join Hadaka [0] (n=naked@naked.iki.fi)
21:53:30gevaertsJdGordon|: yes, but IIUC that's what Unhelpful is getting at
21:53:41*funman owes a beer to anyone who helps fixing the playback stopping on sansa clip
21:56:21JdGordon|Unhelpful: but yeah, thats the same issue as buffering the same track more than once if its in the playlist more than once
21:56:30gevaertsUnhelpful: loading a file to the audio buffer *is* dynamic allocation, so I don't think there should be a general veto against replacing that with a different sort of dynamic allocation, at least not a veto based on the new solution using dynamic allocation
21:57:20NJointogetic [0] (n=togetic@unaffiliated/ibuffy)
21:58:35JdGordon|Unhelpful: buffering prsumably stores all the active handles, so you could add a id field or something to the AA type handle and then do some magic to reuse the handle isntead of doing a actual file buffer

22:06:45Unhelpfulthis would be a win for dynamic WPS allocation also, because if it can use bufalloc then you don't need to stop playback... as i understand it you need to stop playback for buffer_alloc?
22:07:24JdGordon|how could you reclaim free space without breaking pointers?
22:08:31UnhelpfulJdGordon: by having a firm requirement that pointers be re-fetched any time that a yield might have happened, etc. or possibly with a "may move" mutex, which you'd need something like anyway if the handle is used by a COP process.

22:11:12JdGordon|we have talked about the idea where everything gets dumped and needs to be alloc'ed again.. but that has just as many nasty issues
22:12:02Unhelpfulmay-move is the only COP-safe method anyway. the way i see that working would be that a mutex is held while working on the buffer data, with the understand that it must be released regularly. any time the mutex is released, the buffer thread is permitted to compact, and anything with a handle must re-fetch
22:14:57Unhelpfulproblems with that method include that that there could only be one thing using that method, because of the mutex... unless we have more complicated thread synchronization primitives we could use in a similar fashion.
22:15:25JdGordon|I cant see this being useable with anything that uses buffer_alloc() today, but yeah, it sems ok for the apps/ level buffering (buffering.c stuff)
22:17:36Unhelpfuli'm not saying we *need* a malloc badly... i'm just saying that perhaps dynamic allocation for some items would save more space to buffer audio, and/or remove some artificial limits as well, possibly to the degree of being worth the overhead.
22:19:39UnhelpfulWPS is one place where we see trouble at both ends of the spectrum - themers who have actually hit the artifical limits we have, and also large amounts of wasted space for many not-so-big-WPS

22:24:50Unhelpfulthat's true. if we used something buflib-like, where there's a handle table, it would greatly reduce the cost of re-fetching... however, buflib is not very ideal if you might, say, make a lot of allocations, then free *most* of them while holding one for a long time
22:25:36*JdGordon| slides the conversation sideways a bit
22:25:52Unhelpfulhandles in our linked-list buffer go away when their associated allocations do. handles in buflib are free as handles immediately on free, but only free as space if no used handles of higher index exist.
22:26:23JdGordon|this is why I want to make the skin buffer user customisable.. apparently some people like the idea of changing themes 15 times a day, while others maybe only once ever, so only using the absolute minimum ram is good for them but bad for the first
