00:04:56 Join nomada [0] (~nomada@static.197.9.251.148.clients.your-server.de)
00:09:54jhMikeSkugel: one issue there is that some codecs/libs expect pointers to not move (such as libmad, mod and others) between frames
00:10:43kugeljhMikeS: the codecs are halted using the existing API. i.e. when the decode loop asks for more data
00:11:28 Quit Marex (Ping timeout: 268 seconds)
00:11:33jhMikeSthey don't all work that way. libmad stores the pointer of the previous frame. things like mod grab a pointer to the buffer but are atomic and don't check it again
00:12:19 Join Marex [0] (~Marex@195.140.253.167)
00:12:28kugelI'm looking at libmad
00:12:52jhMikeSreally, I don't know all that might expect a pointer to be valid around the loop since it wasn't really a concern
00:13:05kugelafter it calls ci->get_command() it calls ci->request_buffer()
00:13:31jhMikeSatomic formats are locked in place, streaming ones are only shrinkable, not movable
00:13:53kugelwhether or not the buffer from request_buffer() is different or not is not known because the guard buffer migiht be used, no?
00:14:06jhMikeSit's a bit deeper in libamd
00:14:08jhMikeS*mad
00:14:48jhMikeSit might be, but that only limits request size
00:14:51kugelthe stream buffers are reset afterwards
00:15:53kugelit worked for my (limited) testing too
00:15:55 Quit kuldeepdhaka (Quit: gone to fetch temporary death ;))
00:16:27jhMikeSthe concern is in the stream struct
00:16:51pamauryare there portalplayer experts around still ?
00:17:34kugeljhMikeS: I don't see it, the old pointer is lost
00:19:08 Quit ZincAlloy (Quit: Leaving.)
00:20:12kugeljhMikeS: I'm thinking this situation should be handled by all codecs, the pointer changes also when the buffer wraps around
00:20:39kugeldoesnt it? (I'm no expert in this area)
00:20:58jhMikeSpossible I misinterpreted libmad/frame.c or just forgot after so long
00:22:18jhMikeSderp stream.c resets it all
00:25:25jhMikeSand mod.c? (maybe others)
00:26:43jhMikeSone case in mpa.c is unsound
00:27:06jhMikeSthings are only reset if mad_stream_buffer is called but not if it skips it
00:27:45 Join us`0gb [0] (~0gb.us@c-50-137-60-25.hsd1.or.comcast.net)
00:29:22jhMikeSiirc it does that to byte-seek for a frame sync code
00:32:28kugeljhMikeS: have you looked at the patch. does it look sensible ignoring the potential codec problems?
00:32:38jhMikeSmaybe that just needs some minor tweaks
00:32:46jhMikeSso far, yes
00:33:34jhMikeSmuch as I can say right off the top of my head :)
00:33:37kugelthe idea was to halt the codec, safe the file offset, reset the buffer (and rebuffer), then restore the file offset and resume the codec
00:34:12kugelI was surprised to find that everything needed was already there so the patch is rather simple in the end
00:35:30kugelif the codec is about to request new data anyway, and buffering restores the stream properly (because of the stored file offset), then no audio samples should be lost
00:36:16 Quit GeekShad1w (Ping timeout: 240 seconds)
00:36:20kugeloh yea, during that time the PCM buffer should just be drained, and it shouldnt take long enough to go empty
00:37:07gevaertsIf all else fails, we can just make it bigger
00:37:08jhMikeSsure, most times
00:37:35jhMikeSa hard drive spinup is pretty close to the limit as long as it's full
00:39:22jhMikeS"all else" always fails :)
00:39:25***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
00:40:05jhMikeSso, then, atomic format (this breaks "pin handle" expectations still)
00:40:19kugelsince it's just normal rebufferin from the pcm-side it's the same problem when the audio buffer goes low
00:41:09gevaertskugel: what if the buffer is low when you do the work?
00:41:23gevaertsYou'd basically combine both bad cases then
00:41:35 Quit tertu (Ping timeout: 240 seconds)
00:42:41kugelgevaerts: buffering_reset() closes all handles (as soon as the buffering thread goes into the event loop), so if it occurs during rebuffering or just before that would be cancelled
00:44:37gevaertskugel: I mean, you're basically adding the buflib stuff time to the "regular" rebuffer time (including its spin up)
00:45:06jhMikeSwould be nice to spin the hard drive before doing the realloc
00:45:14jhMikeS*for such targets
00:45:27gevaertsSo I suspect you'd need a larger pcm buffer, which IIRC means things like DSP change latency gets longer?
00:45:42jhMikeSindeed it would
00:46:10jhMikeSthat shit really needs to not be like that but it's also sort of hard with crossfading
00:46:31kugelgevaerts: normally the DSP setting items change the pcm buffer into low-latency when in the menu
00:46:58jhMikeSbut you still initially wait for the buffer latency for the first change in a setting to be audible
00:47:31jhMikeSonce it's drained it's maintains low-latency
00:47:51kugelgevaerts: uhm, the worst case would be that it happens just after rebuffering has finished in which case the disk is still spinning
00:48:23kugelif the disk is already spinning audio decoding can be resumed quickly, it doesnt need the whole file to be buffered
00:48:55jhMikeSunless atomic format
00:50:29kugelfuck these :)
00:51:05jhMikeShaha...then I'll have to stick with an older revision myself :)
00:51:31*[Saint] doesn't think he could handle it taking any longer for DSP to catch up with the current state on some targets

00:51:44[Saint]For the Classic, it can be ~12s+
00:52:16jhMikeS[Saint]: really DSP should be late, with raw codec output being stored, not processed audio
00:52:47jhMikeSyou only get 12s if you're doing crossfade, it would otherwise be 3s

00:55:05[Saint]crossfade on automatic track skip only is one of my favorite settings.
00:55:07 Quit kugel (Ping timeout: 265 seconds)
00:55:52[Saint]Its either that, or go through 1.5TB+ and cut out all the annoying silent leads into tracks which the mastering artist thought should be there.
00:56:00jhMikeSI never use it except when fixing it or changing code, so I could say I've used it alot, but not because I use it
00:56:37[Saint]I have a 10s fade in/out on auto-changed tracks.
00:57:01[Saint]manual change doesn;t get squat. I want it NOW!
00:57:10*gevaerts looks at [Saint] in a despairing way
00:57:14gevaertsDon't you like music?
00:57:55[Saint]Sure I do, that's why the silence at the begginning of <pretty much every track ever> needs to piss off.
00:58:02[Saint]:)
00:58:30[Saint]I don;t subscribe to this mastering artist knows best business.
00:58:42*jhMikeS puts gaps at the end of the rips to avoid this problem
00:59:05[Saint]...wouldn;t that compound the issue?
00:59:23[Saint]Oh. Errr. I see. Right.
00:59:39gevaerts[Saint]: you've just basically destroyed e.g. Beethoven's fifth with those settings
00:59:41jhMikeSno, the existing gaps on the media can go after the current track or at the beginning of the next
01:00
01:00:12jhMikeSbecomes beethoven's 4.95th?
01:00:42[Saint]gevaerts: Ohhhh...what a shame.
01:00:55jhMikeSbeethoven can't hear it anyway
01:01:11[Saint]You asked if I liked *music*!
01:01:47jhMikeSmewsic/muse-ick
01:02:09*gevaerts hunts [Saint] down
01:02:57gevaertsAnyway, there's a *lot* of music that starts in a rather spectacular way. If you mute that, it's just not the same any more
01:03:06jhMikeSper-album audio settings maybe? :)
01:03:28gevaertsjhMikeS: this is when the album changes :)
01:04:43[Saint]I don't _mute_ it, I just blend the futzing around in with the ass end of the last track so that the lead in isn't noticeable.
01:05:03[Saint]Though, you have to keep on your toes doing that as some masters like to do this to their albums themselves.
01:05:32*gevaerts doesn't get the entire concept
01:05:45[Saint]Albums you're supposed to listen to in full, start to finish. Nuts to that.
01:05:53gevaertsWell yes
01:05:57gevaertsAlbums are a stupid idea
01:06:01gevaertsAnd so are sonfs
01:06:02gevaerts*songs
01:06:12gevaerts*music* is what it's about, none of your muck :)
01:06:16jhMikeSand notes
01:06:23[Saint]I *HATE* those pesky sonfs...always messing up 'ma shit.
01:06:24jhMikeSwho's got old man fist now?
01:06:51jhMikeSkids these days...
01:07:14gevaerts[Saint]: as far as I understand it, you're still lowering the volume of the starting track
01:07:41jhMikeSindeed, fade-in
01:08:08gevaertsAll I'm pointing out is that with some music, that's just a crime
01:08:12jhMikeSthough you can fade out with overlapping but just start without a fade
01:08:38[Saint]gevaerts: fortunately, its only you that listens to that music. ;)
01:09:07*gevaerts very strongly doubts that
01:09:40*jhMikeS does too, but also metal and such, sometimes back to back

03:02:03ParkerRFull Rockbox and Rockdoom. I'm happy :)
03:02:20[Saint]Hmmmm.
03:02:44[Saint]Philosophical - in part: I don't think _any_ target now can have "full" Rockbox.
03:03:18ParkerRWell looking at the themes for the original Clip it looked better than that heh
03:03:48[Saint]I was just postulating on ROMbox and other target-specific things.
03:04:08[Saint]I don't think there's a single target that makes use of the entire feature set.
03:04:18ParkerRDo all these literally look all the same or is that some image error? http://themes.rockbox.org/index.php?target=sansaclip
03:04:35saratogathey're different images for me
03:04:54ParkerRWell different images but the same general look
03:04:59[Saint]All look different to me.
03:05:11[Saint]I guess I need a screen grab from you to see what you're seeing.
03:05:21ParkerROne step ahead :P
03:05:26ParkerRhttp://i.imgur.com/hnMNGIn.png
03:05:27[Saint]Some look very _similar_, but, all different.
03:05:28saratogayou mean they're all the same color? the clip has a fixed color screen you realize?
03:05:37ParkerROh
03:05:41ParkerRI didnt realize haha
03:05:57saratoga1 bit per pixel, colors are fixed
03:06:07[Saint]monochromatic screen.
03:06:13ParkerRAhh good to know.
03:06:30ParkerRThat explains why they were touting a 1.1" full color screen on the Zip lol
03:06:53[Saint]You'll soon get pissed off with the form factor of said screen.
03:07:02[Saint]Its about the worst shape possible.
03:07:17[Saint]Its like they tried to make a screen that would make cabbiev2 look as bad as possible.
03:07:30ParkerRHeh I like Rockboxed
03:07:33ParkerRSo it looks ok

03:10:08[Saint]Not enough screen to see anything.
03:10:28ParkerR:3
03:10:47ParkerRI still kinda like it. My iPod Touch died a little bit ago so I wanted a cheap replacement
03:11:08ParkerRAnd the Clip does what it does fairly great
03:11:19*[Saint] sees the themesite could make better use of available screen real estate

04:08:26[Saint]JdGordon_: (just thinking about stuff) - how hard/easy would it be to decouple the image offset from the preload call?
04:08:50[Saint](probably a bit vague)
04:08:59Strife89ParkerR: $30 for a ClipZ? I jelly.
04:09:18[Saint]I was thinking in some cases it maght make more sense to set the offset at the time the image is called.
04:09:30[Saint]Rather than when it is preloaded.
04:09:42ParkerRStrife89, Bestbuy had if for what I thought was $34. Rang it up and it ended up being $29
04:09:46ParkerR*it
04:10:08[Saint]The benefit here is that it would be possible to have all theme elements in a single bitmap separated only by their offset.
04:10:09Strife89A local sale?
04:10:32ParkerRStrife89, well judging by it's $30 on Amazon its decent
04:10:45ParkerRIt was on their "Clearance" rack
04:10:52JdGordon_[Saint]: yeah, I think thats a bad idea
04:10:56Strife89Ahh.
04:11:04JdGordon_it would make very messy code to read for the displaying
04:11:41[Saint]I hate that if you want to display the same image at different offsets it needs to be proloaded twice.
04:11:57[Saint](and we don't seem to be able to actually tell that its the same image, and *do* preload twice...)
04:12:36[Saint]It would be marginally better if there was de-dup in bufflib.
04:14:08[Saint]With my way of thinking a theme could consist of two images. A backdrop (if required) and a single bitmap comprising all other elements.
04:14:18ParkerRStrife89, And considering I don't have Prime, it was nice gettings it for slightly cheaper and instant gratification
04:14:24ParkerR*getting
04:14:27JdGordon_[Saint]: wait, what does offsets mean here?
04:14:34JdGordon_is it the offset into the bmp?
04:14:49[Saint]yes.
04:15:10JdGordon_yeah, apart from image strips I don't tihnk supporting anything like tha is a good idea for readability
04:15:52[Saint]I guess, then, I should be poking kugel for deduplication.
04:16:27[Saint]So that preloading 10 of the exact same images just to get unique offsets doesn't *actually* preload the same image 10 times.
04:16:41JdGordon_well, something like that could be done
04:16:50JdGordon_I'd be interested in an actual use case though
04:19:51JdGordon_If all you care about is not loading the same image file twice it could (potentially) be dead simple
04:20:08[Saint]Well. Lets ignore my use case, and offsets entirely. And focus on the (probable) situation where a user might want to preload the same image twice with different idents to handle a conditional state.
04:20:14[Saint]Yeah. Right.
04:20:18JdGordon_you'd still have multiple %xl(id, filename) lines with the same filename but that doesnt mean more space
04:20:25*[Saint] nods
04:20:37JdGordon_Why would you do that though?
04:21:31JdGordon_ignoring offsets, if you're preloading the same image more than once you're being a dill
04:22:21JdGordon_it would actually be *really* simple to do what you want
04:22:32[Saint]right. Ugh. I fucked that up. No. *not* ignoring offsets, that's kinda critical to my argument. :)
04:23:44[Saint]I understand about readability, but really, having the image offset coupled to the preload cal is balls.
04:24:22[Saint]I should be able to preload the image and then display it at any given offset with the draw call.
04:24:42[Saint]Not stack up as many preloads as I need offsets.
04:24:43JdGordon_in load_skin_bitmaps(), in the else{} case: 1) first check if img->loaded != true; 2) copy the filename before load_skin_bmp() overwrites it, 3) load_skin_bmp(), 4) loop through the remiander of the list and copy the buflib_handle to all the img's with the same filename
04:25:24JdGordon_[Saint]: I understand what youre saying, but imagine how horrible the display lines would look if you added 2 more params to each %xd()
04:25:33JdGordon_much cleaner to put that in the load
04:25:40[Saint]Ideally, all the proload call should care about is how many subimages the image has.
04:25:47[Saint]...actually. Not even then.
04:26:03JdGordon_I disagree
04:26:29[Saint]%xd(foo, x,y) doesn't seem to bad to me.
04:26:37[Saint](viewport relative, of course)
04:26:47JdGordon_the %xl() is literally "use this ID to draw <image filename> [from x, y offsets] when I ask for it
04:26:51JdGordon_"
04:26:55[Saint]go to 0,0 if its left out.
04:27:19JdGordon_it would also be ambiguous
04:27:36ParkerRShe's a beaut' :) https://cdn.mediacru.sh/Uf1YPDla1739.jpg
04:27:38JdGordon_%xd(a, 3, 2) == image a, offset (into the strip) 3 item 2
04:28:22[Saint]I'll say again. WRT readability, I *do* understand...but, c'mon, its not like its human readable as-is. And with the fact that users can freely mix old and new syntax readability pretty much went out the window.
04:29:08[Saint]The code is human readable...by the author.
04:29:16[Saint](sometimes not even then)
04:29:18JdGordon_that's a whole other problem :)
04:29:25JdGordon_but why should we try to make it worse?
04:29:41JdGordon_but my understanding is you want to make sure the same *image file* isnt loaded twice?
04:29:44[Saint]Personally, I don't think it is. But...yadda yadda, subjective.
04:30:55JdGordon_what about this argument then: with my suggestion changing the size (or position, or file) of an image would be a 1 line change, with yours it needs to be changed for every identifer use
04:30:58[Saint]Basically. Yes. If I can't manipulate the offset from the display call, I want to make sure that I'm not crippled if I preload the same image umpteen dozen times at different offsets.
04:31:40[Saint]The latter is acceptable. Though I personally believe the former is ideal, albeit disruptive.

08:33:52[Saint]Nothing relevant to Rockbox.
08:34:20ParkerRWell I get that. :P I remembered also talking to you a little bit in #raspberrypi
08:34:37ygrekwhy doesn't rockbox on clipzip have single key keylock?
08:34:49ParkerRAlthough thanks for the idea... portable screen plus the SDL build on the Pi heh
08:35:18ygrekis it possible to easily hack the power button to be a keylock in keymap?
08:35:30ygreke.g. in player mode?
08:35:50ParkerRWell short press of power already is a back up/exit
08:35:51[Saint]ygrek: not easily, no.
08:36:03ParkerRAnd long press is power off
08:36:16[Saint]hence the reason why it requires 2 keys to begin with.
08:36:18ygrekParkerR, it is not very needed in player mode - agree?
08:36:34[Saint]the key maps are VERY crowded.
08:36:34ParkerRI couldn't even get the two key to work. Pressing power and select didn;t seem to do anything
08:36:38ygrekyes, I understand that there are not enough keys :)

08:41:11ygrekthere should be a way out!

08:41:27[Saint]yes. they are.
08:41:33 Quit DTSyX (Client Quit)
08:42:41[Saint]The current implementation makes it very unlikely that softlock will be accidentally engaged or disengaged.
08:43:02[Saint]Which is a huge disadvantage of having it as a single key.
08:43:02ygrekand makes it very unlikely to press with one hand..
08:43:17[Saint]That's part of the point.
08:43:50[Saint]If it can be disabled easily, it is useless as a soft lock.
08:43:54ygrekI believe using the power button for navigation was a bad choice from the beginning
08:44:22[Saint]We don't care about what the original firmware does.
08:44:33[Saint]or how keys are labeled.
08:44:49ygrekjust that the power button is not easily pressed
08:44:55ygrekaccidently
08:44:56pixelma[Saint]: I use the same image at different spots without preloading more than once since... aaages in my theme. Just set up different viewports, %xd is viewport relative
08:45:00[Saint]We try to use a consistent key map across all our devices.
08:45:57[Saint]So what the key is _supposed_ to do isn't necessarily what it will do in Rockbox.

08:48:47ygrekI wonder if I can change that to be a keylock..
08:49:13ygrekfor a personal hack
08:49:21[Saint]You could, yes.

08:50:02ygrekor is it not really the problem here?
08:50:07ParkerRKinda remonds me of those old VFDs https://cdn.mediacru.sh/GzgLoEdggHvM.jpg
08:50:11[Saint]We would need to change the quickscreen in that case.
08:50:24 Quit newbie|2 (Client Quit)
08:50:30[Saint]Or, add a (pretty much pointless) soft lock menu item.
08:50:43[Saint]Quickscreen only displays static menu items and settings.
08:50:44ParkerR*reminds
08:50:54ygrekwhy pointless?
08:51:10[Saint]Because no one wants to dig through a menu to find a soft lock.
08:51:12ygrekif the blind predefined seq on actions leads to keylock - it is ok
08:51:21ygrekif it is only two presses - it is fine
08:51:38[Saint]We are *very* reluctant to add new menu items.
08:51:40ygrekquickscreen is callable from anywhere with one long home press?
08:51:43ygrekargh!

08:53:59ygrekhow one gathers a majority here? bribing, lobbying, any other approved methods?
08:54:14[Saint]With edge cases like this unless we really do have a gaping hole in the functionality we'll usually point to the sources and the licensing.
08:55:47*ygrek agrees and saddens
08:56:25[Saint]Allowing users to map out custom keys is a rather sensitive issue here.
08:56:44[Saint]There really is no way to do it nicely that won't potentially end in a support nightmare for us.
08:57:26ParkerRygrek, I don't know about you... https://d1wst0behutosd.cloudfront.net/videos/13780.mp4

08:58:34ygrekParkerR, looks rather convoluted!
08:58:43ParkerRTrue! :D
08:59:12ParkerRygrek, I agree with you that a one handed would be nice but more with [Saint] on the issues with implementing it
08:59:38[Saint]Being able to operate it so easily defeats the purpose.
09:00
09:00:07[Saint]Its _supposed_ to be slightly difficult to (dis)engage. :)
09:00:09ygrekthat's why all phones out there come with a keylock that requires three hands to unlock it (sarcasm)
09:00:37ygrekbtw old nokia dumbphones have a keylock with two keypresses
09:00:42ygrekfrom the quickscreen
09:00:49ygrekor at least I configured it so iirc
09:01:37ygrekactually 3 keypresses - get to the main screen, invoke context menu, click on the first menu item
09:01:45ygrekunlock was two keypresses
09:01:53[Saint]This debate (or the root of it, rather: end-user customizable keymaps) comes up maybe once or twice a year.
09:02:11ygrekI didn't mean user-customizable
09:02:14[Saint]And the usual consensus ends up being that there just plain isn't a nice way to safely implement it.
09:02:46ygrekstill, what about an option in a quickscreen?
09:03:14*ParkerR points to the sources :P
09:03:17ygrekkeylock -> one key press to get to QS, one click (if it is a first item) to lock the keys
09:03:26ygreki.e. you will accept such patch?
09:03:26[Saint]That would mean we would have to change the way the quickscreen behaves. But that may not be a bad thing.

09:04:15[Saint]Currently the quickscreen will only accept settings, which this isn't.
09:04:53ygrekok, will see how much hacking energy I will have on this one, maybe with some luck it materializes in something

09:06:41[Saint]What about disabling it?
09:06:58ygrekhm...
09:07:14ygrekI don't how the keylock is handled inside
09:08:13ygrekthat depends whether it is possible to hook at the point when keylock actually prevents key presses
09:08:20ygrekI dunno

18:50:41saratogathe 6000 series eventually became tegra, and was only ever used in one or two devices, so no one was enthusiastic about it
18:51:10saratogaIIRC e200tool was half working on it (code execution but no ability to talk to NAND so you couldn't really do anything)

19:00
19:00:57pamauryisn't it hard to find ?
19:01:55saratogaah no idea
19:02:37pamauryand what are the chances I find some installl method ?

19:04:15pamauryno, I just need something else because always working on imx233 is kind of boring and frustrating
19:04:19saratogawas going to say i can probably dig up some hardware that i won't have time for
19:04:27saratogaso you want PP?????
19:04:52saratogaimx was too documented and not buggy enough
19:05:36saratogai want something where the cache coherency doesn't work and different memory addresses have different access speeds because memory controllers are hard
19:05:41pamauryit's buggy enough ^^ I have zillions of tcc based players but they all use NAND which is a pain to handle
19:06:16saratogai think funman has my old Nano 2G if you want to play around with that
19:06:33pamaurynot so sure, I'll stick with my players for the moment
19:06:43saratogacould probably also find you a classic 6G (no nand at all!)
19:06:55pamauryI still have much work to finish: finish rbutil install for some imx233 devices, and finish FTL RE too
19:07:15saratogawhat about just replacing the FTL with the Nano 2g one?
19:07:55pamaurylack of interoperability
19:08:02saratogawith the OF?
19:08:20pamauryand basically if you break the FTL on those devices, there are high chances the OF won't even boot so then it's a pain to flash a new bootloader
19:09:04saratogadon't they have a nice failsafe USB mode?
19:12:14pamauryyeah but that doesn't help because 1) you need special tool to upload code 2) you need a special build to upload to be able to read/write the firmware. So it's not exactly user friendly to update the bootloader this way.
19:12:27pamauryThe OF provides vendor SCSI commands to do that which is much nicer
19:12:41pamauryof course we could implement them but then that's more work
19:14:37saratogaah ok, i assumed they would still work with a broken NAND
19:14:57pamauryunfortunately not

22:23:46scorche|shgevaerts: ah - i thought we werent having much spam lately
22:24:00gevaertsscorche|sh: no, that part is fine
22:24:14gevaertsBut doing anything with the ban list is still horrendous
22:24:57scorche|shgevaerts: either way, there shouldnt be much banning necessary - for user bans, move them to the banned membergroup...for IP and email bans, you do need to ban, but those should be pretty few and far between
22:25:20gevaertsWell...
22:25:32gevaertsThis one was about removing a ban :)
