00:01:27n1sthat's the one i meant, the animated part is a slightly different shade of gray from the background but it is indeed hard to see
00:03:02Luca_Snot a big deal however, that's just ui candy, and the fuze recharges quite quickly :)

00:09:14S_a_i_n_tIt indeed wasn;t what I thought it was, but I'll still look at it.

01:27:43JdGordon|meh, ok, apparently one of the reasons the catalog doesnt use the file browser is because it puts the most recent playlist at the top of the list. I wonder if it would be acceptable to add a new catalog menu item for "Add to: <last m3u filename>" so the browser doesnt need to display it
01:28:11JdGordon|that could even cut 2 key presses of that action

15:54:31S_a_i_n_tas soon as it errors, it quits...so I can't tell to much from it.
15:54:59S_a_i_n_tit's just cleanup BS anyway, no reason why it can't be left there to be cleaned up manually.
15:55:22Tornethat's questionable logic
15:55:35Torneif the build and install is really done then nothing should have any files open in there any more
15:55:42Torneso maybe something *else* has gone wrong
15:55:55Tornesolving the real problem is better
15:55:56S_a_i_n_tBut, it's not *done*
15:56:01S_a_i_n_tit's pretty far from the end.
15:56:11Tornethe build and install must be done if it's deleting the build directory
15:56:13S_a_i_n_tit's some intermediary cleanup.
15:56:21S_a_i_n_tNope.
15:56:26S_a_i_n_tit's far, far from done.
15:56:34Tornethat doesn't make any sense
15:56:36S_a_i_n_t(at that stage)
15:56:57S_a_i_n_twhich is possibly why its failing.
15:57:01TorneIt *is* done
15:57:09Torneif you mean the last line in build()
15:57:17Torneit has built and installed the tool it was asked to build and install.
15:57:25Torneso then it deletes the build directory for that tool
15:57:36Torneso, there is no legitimate reason for anything to be holding that directory open
15:57:42Tornewhich means something has already gone wrong :)
15:57:59S_a_i_n_tbut, commenting out that line
15:58:02S_a_i_n_tit completes.
15:58:07Tornethat doesn't mean it did it properly
15:58:11S_a_i_n_tthere's still a LOT of shit to build after that.
15:58:15S_a_i_n_t(apparently)
15:58:19Torneit's *probably* fine, but you can't know that for sure
15:58:29S_a_i_n_tthe script continues for AGES after that if commented.
15:58:30Torneeach part of the toolchain is a totally seperate package
15:58:41Torneeach one is downloaded, unpacked, built, installed, and then the build directory completed
15:58:50Tornethe fact that the script isn't done then is not a surprise
15:58:53Tornebinutils is the first thing to be installed
15:59:00Tornebut it *is* done installing binutils
15:59:07Torneso it's perfectly reasonable for it to delete the directory it built binutils in
16:00
16:00:17Tornerockboxdev.sh is a script that builds two seperate things, binutils and gcc.
16:00:28S_a_i_n_tbut then it goes on to create the same dir again.
16:00:32Torneno it doesn't.
16:00:37S_a_i_n_tto build more stuff in it.
16:00:41Torneif it did, that would be broken
16:00:41amiconnS_a_i_n_t: It worked fine for me. Are you running rockboxdev.sh with administrative permissions?
16:00:46S_a_i_n_tNo reason to remove it at that stage really.
16:00:54S_a_i_n_tamiconn: yes.
16:01:15Torneit removes build-binutils
16:01:18Torneand creates build-gcc instead
16:02:07S_a_i_n_tamiconn: Hillshum(sp?) had exactly the same error approximately 2 days ago
16:02:33S_a_i_n_tif I comment line 198, it completes.
16:02:45S_a_i_n_tif not it will always fail at that point.

18:03:54TorneDid we come to a decision about what to do with the USB device ID changing thing?
18:04:06Tornethe issue peopl ehave with devices that expect to read the itunesdb over USB when they notice the device is an ipod
18:06:10S_a_i_n_tHmmmm? Oh, like iTunes opening with "Open iTunes when this iPod is detected" setting turned on, etc?
18:06:20Tornewell more for things like car head units and hifis
18:06:31Tornebecause on those you can't jus tuse a different media player program that's not dumb
18:06:32S_a_i_n_tOh, right.
18:06:43S_a_i_n_ttrue.
18:06:57Tornethey see the apple device IDs and they expect to be able to talk that weird SCSI-transported protocol where they can read the iTunesDB
18:07:02Tornewhich we don't implement :)
18:07:14Tornebecause they assume that on an apple device they won't be able to find any of the files otherwise.
18:07:20Torneand fail to give you the optoin of just browsing hte filesystem
18:07:25S_a_i_n_tSo, what is the solution?
18:07:44Tornethe "solution" for individual users is to compile a build that uses a different USB VID/PID
18:07:54Torneso the head unit doesn't recognise it as an ipod, and just mounts it as a usb flash drive
18:08:04Tornesince they do normalyl support non-ipod usb devices as well :)
18:08:21S_a_i_n_tCould there be a user setting for this on the DAP??
18:08:23Tornebut last time this was discussed people were reluctant to actually put the code to do that into the build
18:08:26S_a_i_n_t-?
18:08:26TorneWell, there could be, yes
18:08:37Tornebut the problem is that, well, you aren't supposed to use VIDs/PIDs that don't belong to you :)
18:08:54Torneand also, some OSes use those to identify things like what drive letter to mount as, so being able to change them can result in confusing behaviour to users
18:08:55S_a_i_n_tAh.
18:09:10Tornewe currently assume that nobody cares if we reuse the VID/PID that the device's OF uses
18:09:16Tornesince it is the same device, even if it's not hte same softrware :)
18:09:44Tornebut that's not so good in this case because our capabilities are not hte same as the device's normal software.
18:10:11S_a_i_n_tHow strict is the "aren't supposed to"? ;)
18:10:27Tornewell i don't know that the USB-IF can really *do* anything to us :)
18:10:44Tornethe usual way they enforce their rules is you are only allowed to use the USB trademarks (like the logo) if you follow their rules ;)
18:10:49S_a_i_n_t\o/
18:11:07Tornewe certainly can't afford to pay to join the USB-IF or to get a PID as an independant, costs loads
18:11:37Torneletting the user set it to any value kinda absolves us of responsibility but it's not very helpful to the people who actually need the feature
18:11:55Tornesince telling them "oh just pick some random number" is not very helpful, what if that clashes with something one of their devices/OSes recognises already?
18:12:21 Quit S00row (Read error: Connection reset by peer)

18:14:38alexbobPmight as well just jack the id from some other player
18:17:20TornealexbobP: right, that's the point; it's fine for an individual user to build their own build that does that
18:17:35Tornebut it's not necessarily a good idea to just make that a setting, is the thing
18:17:55Tornethe potential for weird/bad stuff to happen is certainly present...
18:18:01alexbobPTorne: if we already know that the current state of affairs does the Wrong Thing (tm), I don't see why not
18:18:18Tornewha?
18:18:28TorneThe current behaviour is fine/correct for almost everyone
18:18:38alexbobP11:03:30 < Torne> the issue peopl ehave with devices that expect to read the itunesdb over USB when they notice the device is an ipod
18:18:57alexbobPisn't that a problem for anyone with a rockbox ipod?
18:19:02Torneno..
18:19:25Torneit's a problem for anyone with a USB host device which assumes that iPods should only be accessed via the itunesdb remote protocol
18:19:34Torneand doesn't give you any way of configuring that
18:19:41Tornewhich is a tiny number of people, tbh ;)
18:19:45alexbobPah, okay
18:19:55Tornesince it basically boils down to "some expensive car head units" and "some expensive hifis/amps"
18:20:05alexbobPI don't see what the potential is for problems if an ipod looks like it's a different msd device
18:20:59Tornewell, apart from anything else, people seem to like to fiddle with settings without knowing what they mean or do :)
18:21:15Torneand changing the device id will cause it to behave differently on many OSes the next time you plug it into the PC
18:21:15alexbobPof course, it's fun :D
18:21:29alexbobPwouldn't it just behave like a flash drive?
18:21:29Tornebe assigned a different drive letter, have its autoplay/whatever done differently, etc
18:21:38alexbobPhehe, drive letters...
18:21:42Torneit would behave like a *different* flash drive
18:21:52Tornewhereas normally it's always the same device :)
18:22:00alexbobPis it a problem when it gets a different drive letter? :P
18:22:20Tornemight be. users don't generally expect the identity of a device to change once they've already used it
18:22:29Tornei'm not saying it's a crippling issue or anything
18:22:32n1sah, restored inlining got that down to 2% :)
18:22:39Tornebut it's some potential confusion ;)
18:22:44alexbobPwell okay
18:22:54alexbobPit's of no consequence to me, since I tend to shirk away from buying apple products

18:24:26Tornebut that doesn't speak to their opinoin on letting users set it to something else..
18:24:43alexbobPtheir opinion on letting *users* set it to something else is irrelevant :P
18:24:43gevaertsexactly
18:25:00gevaertsWell, technically lots of systems allow setting this
18:25:15gevaertsIf you have a windows mobile device, you can change VID and PID
18:25:35TorneWell, sure
18:25:36gevaertsAll you need is a registry editor :)
18:25:39alexbobPTorne: maybe nobody is specifically attacking rockbox, but doesn't apple design their players to only accept firmware that they signed or something?
18:25:55gevaertsalexbobP: yes, but that's not against rockbox
18:26:04TornealexbobP: yes. but that's just the way they do their next generation of hardware
18:26:11alexbobPgevaerts: it's against homebrew in general, and rockbox is homebrew
18:26:17gevaertsnot really
18:26:19Tornesecure boot chain is pretty much a standard thing you do on embedded hardware these days
18:26:23gevaertsThat's against people who modify the firmware to circumvent DRM on their music and apps
18:26:26Torneindeed
18:26:32alexbobPhahahahaha
18:26:42alexbobPI cannot fathom the concept of somebody who decides their best bet to break drm
18:26:42Torneyou laugh but people do that
18:26:45alexbobPis to tamper with device firmware
18:26:51Tornethere are loads of patched apple firmwares for ipods around
18:26:55alexbobPdrm is always so easy to break directly on your computer!
18:27:13Tornegevaerts: well, things like the FT232 let you just set it :)
18:27:21alexbobPanyways the concept of drm is retarded. I don't respect apple anymore because they're trying to "protect drm" instead of just stick it to rockbox :P
18:27:22TornealexbobP: you don't understand what we're talking about, then :)
18:27:48alexbobPTorne: um, what? I'm familiar with "fair"play.
18:27:52Tornegevaerts: actually FTDI give you a PID under their VID if you ask for one
18:28:09Tornegevaerts: but you are supposed to be a bona-fide FTDI customer using FTDI chips
18:28:09Torne:)
18:28:29TornealexbobP: see the iphone/ipodtouch/etc where you can install apps.. you can't break the DRM for those apps on the computer because they are checked on the device
18:28:33Torneyou have to do something to the device
18:28:51alexbobPTorne: oh, I was just thinking about music drm
18:28:53alexbobPTorne: I see what you mean
18:29:07Tornethere are other restrictions, yes
18:29:12alexbobPy'know, theoretically you could still crack any app on your computer
18:29:17Torneno you can't.
18:29:21alexbobPbut that's harder than modifying firmware
18:29:23alexbobPTorne: of course you can
18:29:26Tornethis is offtopic, anyway
18:29:31alexbobPTorne: any app is just a collection of data, and if you modify it you can do what you want
18:29:52gevaertsalexbobP: *if* you can get it to load
18:31:05Tornegevaerts: so, yeah, i feel like we should do *something* for the people who have these devices that need the VID/PID changing to be usable
18:31:11Tornegevaerts: but not sure what the sensible option is :)
18:31:27gevaertsTorne: I think the main blocker is that we need a good not too difficult way for users to set a different VID/PID pair, while at the same time not inviting people to play with that setting for the fun of it (because of the "interestin" effects it can have), *and* without us suggesting a VI/PID pair
18:31:49alexbobPare there any Apple brand flash drives? you should steal the VID/PID from that
18:31:55alexbobPwhy is it a problem if users want to play with the setting?
18:32:08Tornegevaerts: well, you could just have it as a config setting with no menu option
18:32:40gevaertsalexbobP: why would Apple-brand flash drives be better than anything else? And besides, *we* can't suggest any set of numbers
18:33:07S_a_i_n_tyou could just have a menu somewhere, with VID/PID1 and VID/PID2
18:33:29gevaertsTorne: that's one way, but most people don't really like file-only settings
18:33:49Tornegevaerts: by people do you mean users or us? :)
18:33:54gevaertsalexbobP: because it can cause all sorts of weirdness, leading to masses of support issues
18:33:57gevaertsTorne: devs :)
18:34:05Tornei was hoping in general that a user who needs this feature doesn't need to change it *back* ever
18:34:11Tornei.e. they don't also use anything that depends on it being the apple one
18:34:23Tornei don't think it's unreasonable to have a file-only setting for *this*
18:34:26Tornein general sure, that sucks
18:34:33Tornebut this is a pretty weird and obscure thing
18:34:39gevaertsI agree, but you know this "precedent" thing :)
18:34:54alexbobPgevaerts: if we don't suggest a set of numbers people are not likely to know which ones are even for MSD devices
18:35:07alexbobPgevaerts: and I just figured an ipod behaving as an apple flash drive would seem fitting...
18:35:21alexbobPat least it would show up as the correct color in the little icon popping up on your mac ;)

18:35:32gevaertsalexbobP: that's the whole point! Using VID/PID to decide how to talk to a device is *broken*!
18:35:40Tornethe VID/PID are not what's generally used to decide that :)
18:35:48Tornethe device seperately says "i am a mass storage device"
18:35:51Tornethat's a different thing
18:35:58alexbobPwell that's good, because that seems about as reasonable as paying attention to filename extensions
18:36:02gevaertsAnd using the Apple VID would likely not even fix the actual issue for some people
18:36:05Torneyou just need to pick a VID/PID that your OS doesn't already have a specific driver for.
18:36:14Tornebasically.
18:36:14alexbobPbut since the workaround is for devices that *do* pay attention to the VID, it seems like what VID you use might be important :P

18:40:23*Strife89TX reckons it would be neat if someone added a separate font setting for plugins like Stopwatch.
18:40:34gevaertsThese industry organisations with strict rules and big companies behind them (and fees...) are why you can buy a device these days and mostly expect it to work. Remember ISA?

18:41:53n1shmm, getting usefull results from profiling on coldfire is harder than i thought since function calls are so expensive inlining makes a very big difference but letting gcc inline as much as it wants means only a few functions remain...

18:43:06timcccya. if you're trying to read while running a large font goes a long way. it's enough of a hassle to constantly play around with the theme settings that i don't bother.
18:45:44Strife89TXI don't know the code, but AFAIK it could be a nearly copy-paste process from the text viewer's font setting.
18:45:54S_a_i_n_tyou can easily just use two .cfgs
18:46:46Strife89TXS_a_i_n_t: That's a bit iffy, it'd only be for one setting and he'd still have to punch through a menu.
18:47:24S_a_i_n_tEasiest way a non-coder's going to be able to achieve it, though.
18:47:25Strife89TXPlus Rockbox will probably take longer to load such a .cfg than to just load another font.

18:48:38timcccright, saint's only being practical in the interim. could i create a cfg that set fontsize 32 and another that set fontsize 12 and be done with it?

18:48:51S_a_i_n_tI'm sure a seperate font setting could be integrated into the Stopwatch plugin, but someone has to actually do the work which I wouldn't hold my breath for unless someone takes a particular interest in who has the coding chops to actually be able to do it.
18:49:06n1stimccc: basically, but you need to select a 12pixel font and a 32 pixel one
18:49:11S_a_i_n_ttimccc: Yeah.
18:49:59timccccool, i'll give it a go now
18:50:36S_a_i_n_tthen, all you'll be doing is browsing a .cfg for Big/Small fonts. You can even use a "fixed.cfg" to make sure that your player always boots with a specific set of settings.
18:51:08S_a_i_n_tI use that (a fixed.cfg) to make sure that my player always defaults to my preferred settings every time it boots.
18:51:26Strife89TXS_a_i_n_t: The text viewer (a plugin) already has a separate-font setting. Forgive my short-sightedness, but does *that* much have to be done aside from copying that bit of code over to the stopwatch (also a plugin) and adding a menu?
18:52:04Tornesounds sufficient to me :)
18:52:40Strife89TXIt just doesn't sound like it would be that difficult for someone who has an idea of what they're doing.
18:52:45S_a_i_n_tStrife89TX: Not really, no...but my point wasn't really anything to do with how easy it is or isn't to do, it's getting someone to do it ;)
18:53:02timcccok, it's done. thank you :D
18:53:13Strife89TXS_a_i_n_t: I can't argue with that point. :)

19:08:22amiconn[17:14:16] <n1s> regular playback is slower than realtime though so no real gain from test_codec <== What are you working on?
19:08:27gevaertsWe have a patch that implements some ipod things, but that won't be sufficient. I assume the problematic hosts also assumes the original database, or even this USB audio streaming thing that apparently ipods can do
19:08:51Torneit's probably the direct track access over usb thing, yeah
19:08:51n1samiconn: i was testing vorbis with profiling on my h300
19:09:08amiconnah
19:09:11saratogathey stream the file, or actual PCM data over USB?
19:09:17Torneit means the host doesn't have to speak all versions of itunesdb
19:09:31Tornei think it just tells you the path of the file
19:09:37n1smainly to get an idea of where gcc 4.4 makes the code worse when i get around to test that again
19:09:46Tornenot sure though
19:09:53saratogaok that makes more sense
19:10:10Torneso the firmware does something mtp-like
19:10:20pixelmacould Rockbox detect if something wants to talk to it in an unknown protocol?
19:10:21n1sif i mark most of the inline asm functions etc to be always_inline and noinstrument_function the speed is about realtime
19:11:37Tornei think it's weird scsi commands
19:11:45Tornerather than a different usb profile
19:12:35gevaertsIf so, we can probably detect that, but this really needs investigation by someone who has such a device
19:13:08gevaertsBut then we're probably better off if we just reverse engineer the protocol :)
19:14:17Tornewe could maybe detect them but there is a lot of speculation here
19:14:21saratogaa message on the screen saying what happened might be nice
19:14:31saratogalike "unknown SCSI protocol detected"
19:15:22amiconnRegarding different VID/PID we have to be really careful, allocation issues aside
19:17:00amiconnSeveral of the existing usb msd solutions (both hw and sw) have quirks, and I know that at least some host usb stacks enable workarounds for those based on VID/PID
19:17:09saratogaFWIW it looks like the ffmpeg have done 90% of the NEON stuff we want already for us
19:17:21Torneamiconn: indeed
19:17:38saratogaso we should probably figure out if NEON helps battery life on Android, and then decide on a way to selectively enable it based on the host's ability
19:18:29gevaertsamiconn: actually, I wouldn't be surprised if we're already hitting some of those
19:20:37amiconnsaratoga: This is something I'd be interested in... do you have an idea how it would be possible to write the source for the codec libs in a way that they could be compiled for either runtime-selection or compile-time selection of code paths, depending on arm architecture version?
19:21:06saratogaamiconn: make the codeclib functions as function pointers, and then set them based on what the host says it has
19:21:19amiconnOf course without comproising performance for either case
19:22:40saratogaffmpeg has a huge library of NEON implemented functions for audio decoding, many of which are direct implementations of what we have taken from them in c
19:23:24 Quit DerPapst (Quit: Leaving.)
19:23:26saratogaand converting NEON to fixed point is often relatively easy since so many operations in neon can work with either float or fixed point variables
19:24:53amiconnHmm, we could compile all codecs multiple times, place them in subdirs of .rockbox/codecs/, and then select the subdir where to load codecs from at startup
19:25:03amiconnThat won't work for in-core code though
19:25:19saratogais that really better then just using function pointers?

19:26:02Guest3976hello
19:26:12saratogain the long term it might be nice to try and consolidate all these different ASM functions
19:26:33Guest3976Hey one question guys, where exactly is the download for rockboy for the e250v2 sansa?
19:26:39saratogaffmpeg has the right idea i think, where they try to provide generic DSP operations (e.g. vector_mul_add)
19:26:49saratogarockboy is built into rockbox
19:26:54saratogayou don't download it separately
19:26:56saratogasee manual
19:27:27saratogavarious things in the codecs are presently duplicated
19:27:47saratogafor instance the mdct windowing is currently implemented in ARM ASM 6 different times by my count
19:27:57amiconnYes, but then some optimisations are only effective when inlined
19:28:07saratogatrue
19:28:15Guest3976alright thak you
19:28:35saratogaalthough i wonder how many of those would be applicable to neon
19:28:52saratogait seems most suited for things like filterbanks and transforms
19:28:57 Quit Guest3976 (Client Quit)
19:29:08saratogai'm not sure it would make sense to inline short blocks of NEON like we do with ASM to work around gcc crap
19:29:26amiconnOne example are the various vector-multiply and combined vector-multiply/vector-add/sub implementations for the ape filters
19:29:58saratogayou wouldn't just call a NEON specific version of the entire filter?
19:30:13amiconnThen you have to build it twice
19:30:49amiconnThe C code is generic - mentioned functions are inlined from .h files selected by CPU architecture and variant
