| 00:27:25 | hardeep | heya LinusN! |
| 00:27:29 | | Nick mecraw__ is now known as mecraw (~mecraw@69.2.235.2) |
| 00:27:30 | hardeep | happy new year! |
| 00:27:40 | LinusN | hardeep: care to commit the FAT fix you did? |
| 00:27:52 | LinusN | happy new year to you too |
| 00:28:00 | hardeep | LinusN: i committed it last year |
| 00:28:11 | LinusN | oh, didn't see that |
| 00:28:36 | * | LinusN giggles, "last year"... |
| 00:28:44 | hardeep | hehe, yeah :) |
| 00:29:06 | Hadaka | hey linus! meant to talk to you about something |
| 00:29:24 | LinusN | yeah? |
| 00:29:27 | Hadaka | namely, battery charging and USB |
| 00:29:40 | Hadaka | I'm not entirely sure how power is distributed around the archos unit |
| 00:30:08 | LinusN | what is your question? |
| 00:31:04 | Hadaka | well, the basic problem is that when the harddrive is under a heavy load in USB mode - and the charger is plugged - the batteries are continuously being discarded and charged at the same time |
| 00:31:19 | LinusN | yup |
| 00:31:46 | Hadaka | and this seems to heat up the unit pretty much - and I'm guessing it hurt my battery life quite a bit |
| 00:31:47 | LinusN | the sad part is that the HD never spins down in USB mode |
| 00:32:33 | Hadaka | so my basic problem is to improve this situation somehow and the problems around it - and that springs a lot of questions |
| 00:32:43 | Hadaka | but I don't need to ask them if someone has thought this through already :) |
| 00:32:47 | | Quit dfg_ ("Client Exiting") |
| 00:34:29 | LinusN | I have been thinking about enabling the STANDBY mode of the hard drive before switching to USB |
| 00:34:48 | LinusN | but i think the ISD chip resets it |
| 00:35:10 | Hadaka | LinusN: can't those be manipulated from the USB end, eg. from the computer end? |
| 00:35:18 | LinusN | otherwise you can't do anything about it |
| 00:35:37 | LinusN | sure, that may be handled by the computer |
| 00:39:02 | Hadaka | hmmh, it shows up as an scsi device in linux, that complicates things |
| 00:39:16 | LinusN | yup |
| 00:39:44 | LinusN | It is pretty trivial to patch the ISD200 driver for the Player models |
| 00:40:02 | Hadaka | time to install scsitools and see if there's enough interface there |
| 00:42:22 | Hadaka | hmmh nope |
| 00:42:34 | Hadaka | too bad, so patching the driver is necessary |
| 00:42:55 | Hadaka | anyway, but that wasn't my main problem with this thing, although fixing it would be good |
| 00:43:04 | LinusN | player or recorder? |
| 00:43:11 | Hadaka | the question is that can the load on the batteries be helped somehow? |
| 00:43:12 | Hadaka | recorder |
| 00:43:32 | Hadaka | as in, would for example having deep discharge on during usb mode help or hurt things |
| 00:44:01 | LinusN | probably help |
| 00:45:42 | Hadaka | there's a small problem there though |
| 00:46:25 | Hadaka | the deep discharge is a bit too deep - a lot of hd operations at the low end will cause the drive to suddenly spin down when it loses power |
| 00:47:21 | LinusN | aha |
| 00:47:30 | LinusN | then don't use deep discharge :-) |
| 00:48:02 | Hadaka | yes but then there's the problem that the batteries are discharged only a little bit, then charged back to full, then discharged a little bit, then charged back to full |
| 00:48:14 | Hadaka | and it would seem that uwe's trickle charge causes even more problems |
| 00:48:28 | Hadaka | sometimes the batteries go full so it goes over the top-off charge on to trickle charge |
| 00:48:53 | Hadaka | then heavy power consumption begins and it doesn't seem to notice that the battery power is dropping rapidly and just keeps on trickle charging |
| 00:49:18 | Hadaka | I need to debug this mode - put on the charging variables in the USB screen so I can tell for sure |
| 00:49:36 | LinusN | do so, you may be on to something |
| 00:51:36 | Hadaka | I'm just wondering first that what would be the optimal strategy for battery usage in USB mode |
| 00:53:34 | LinusN | i think a semi-deep discharge would be it |
| 00:54:12 | Hes | Good evening |
| 00:54:29 | LinusN | hi Hes |
| 00:54:46 | Hes | ... or the normal mode without trickle/deep if one wants to be sure the batteries are almost full when one's finished with transferring files |
| 00:55:05 | Hadaka | I just wonder how the power is distributed in the unit - since it can run without batteries somewhat |
| 00:55:23 | LinusN | Hadaka: it's simple |
| 00:55:35 | Hes | btw - i've made an almost complete finnish translation |
| 00:55:41 | LinusN | the unit can run directly off the external power |
| 00:55:48 | Hes | thought it'd be a quick & easy job, but was wrong 8-) |
| 00:56:03 | LinusN | but the batteries are needed to be able to spin the hard drive |
| 00:56:25 | LinusN | Hes: finnish is surely a verbose language |
| 00:56:52 | LinusN | lots of long words |
| 00:57:17 | Hadaka | LinusN: so when the charger is on, it largely powers the hard drive, but not quite enough? |
| 00:57:44 | Hes | and lots of obvious but either very bad or too long translations for the technical terms needed |
| 00:57:46 | LinusN | it may be able to keep it spinning, but it's not enough to spin it up |

| 02:56:14 | CellarBoy | I willing to try to port it too the new FM recorder, do you know where the best place to start as far a research goes? |
| 02:56:37 | Hadaka | CellarBoy: taking your unit apart |
| 02:56:51 | Hadaka | CellarBoy: if you are not willing to do that, it's going to be trickier |
| 02:57:10 | Hadaka | CellarBoy: try asking on the list, there are people there that have progressed with the FM port |
| 02:57:12 | CellarBoy | Already took it apart// |
| 02:57:37 | Hadaka | CellarBoy: then scans of the boards would be nice, I guess :) |
| 02:58:10 | Hadaka | CellarBoy: anyway, I'm the wrong person to ask, Zagor (Björn) and Linus and others are much better - raise them through the list |

| 05:31:34 | PsycoXul | interesting little cheap color pda |
| 05:31:46 | PsycoXul | apparently it's strong point is it's hackability and hw capabilities for the price |
| 05:33:24 | PsycoXul | now what'd be really cool is if this thing can act as a usb master somehow :p |
| 05:34:27 | MrSnazz | good luck, without doing hardware mods |
| 05:34:39 | PsycoXul | it has a cf card slot, and you can get a pcmcia thing that goes into it, and then a pcmcia usb thing to go in that, but i dunno if it actualy supports doing that specifically heh... rather costly attempt without knowing if it'll work heh |
| 05:34:49 | MrSnazz | that's not a bad idea |

| 05:56:20 | SmoothPeanutButt | Is there any place that they have WPS and fonts matched up? So that if you want a given font, you can find a WPS that will work with it? |
| 06:00 |
| 06:00:38 | hardeep | SmoothPeanutButt: nope... you'll have to try it out on your own |
| 06:01:04 | hardeep | but you may want to post a message on the mailing list or the boards (yahoo, funmp3players) |
| 06:01:21 | hardeep | get other people's suggestions |
| 06:04:47 | SmoothPeanutButt | It would be a cool modification to the WPS syntax to allow specification of font inside the file and load it if available.... |

| 06:27:02 | PsycoXul | it can boot and it supports the FB, but not the touchscreen or serial port or much of anything else yet |
| 06:37:00 | SmoothPeanutButt | Is there any way of having the recorder boot off the ROM only (without having to delete/move/rename the rockbox firmware file)? Some sort of key combo on boot? |
| 06:38:40 | PsycoXul | download the latest archos firmware and put it on the drive as some other filename |

| 07:51:59 | Kshain | ah hi |
| 07:52:09 | Kshain | sorry, my comp crashed |
| 07:52:28 | hardeep | np, what was your question? |
| 07:52:35 | Kshain | I have a couple |
| 07:53:13 | Kshain | first of all, what software can I use to edit my archos 10 gig studio with rockbox |
| 07:53:25 | Kshain | the musicmatch studio doesnt seem to work with it now |
| 07:53:45 | hardeep | what do you want to edit? playlists? |
| 07:54:27 | Kshain | well, I wanted to use the volume leveling and mp3 enhancer from musicmatch |
| 07:54:38 | Kshain | playlists is my second question |
| 07:55:12 | hardeep | there is nothing in the rockbox firmware that disables either of those two things |
| 07:55:26 | Kshain | oh, so I can do those? |
| 07:55:31 | hardeep | yes |
| 07:55:47 | hardeep | that's just modifying the mp3 file |
| 07:56:04 | Kshain | well thats where the problem is. Musicmtch wont reconize that my jb is hooked to my comp |
| 07:56:46 | hardeep | hmmmm, sounds like a hardware issue. have you checked the cables etc.? |
| 07:57:16 | Kshain | yah my comp reads the mp3 player fine. |
| 07:58:07 | hardeep | then there must be something wrong with your musicmatch settings |
| 07:58:25 | Kshain | hmmm, would using a warez copy have something to do with it |
| 07:58:37 | hardeep | heh, a likely cause |
| 07:58:41 | Kshain | shit] |
| 07:58:48 | Kshain | ok, on to my secon question |
| 07:58:55 | hardeep | the rockbox firmware doesn't do anything when the usb cable is plugged in |
| 07:59:08 | Kshain | hmmm ok |
| 07:59:25 | Kshain | So yah I'll install my older disk version |
| 08:00 |
| 08:00:08 | Kshain | my second question is: If I read this correctly, there is no way to make playlists just of my mp3 player yet is there? |
| 08:00:35 | hardeep | not with rockbox |
| 08:00:56 | hardeep | however, you can load the archos firmware using the ROLO feature and create them from there |
| 08:01:15 | hardeep | the next rockbox release will hopefully include playlist creation |
| 08:02:46 | Kshain | sorry, whats the ROLO feature. Methinks I missed that one |
| 08:03:23 | hardeep | Q33 in http://rockbox.haxx.se/docs/faq.html |
| 08:04:46 | Kshain | thx |
| 08:04:55 | Kshain | one more question |
| 08:04:56 | hardeep | another decent writeup on using the feature is at: http://www.funmp3players.com/forum/topic.asp?topic_id=6097&forum_id=8&Topic_Title=Switching+between+Rockbox+%26amp%3B+Archos+firmwar&forum_title=General+%2D+Jukebox+Player%2FRecorder&M=False&S=True |
| 08:07:43 | Kshain | I was looking and I dont have the version of jukebox that came with my player. You dont by any chance know where to get one thats comp with a studio 10 do you? |
| 08:08:47 | hardeep | other than purchasing another copy online, nope |
| 08:09:04 | Kshain | yuck. Ok thanks for all your help. |
| 08:09:09 | Kshain | Cya later |
| 08:09:11 | hardeep | i've actually never used musicmatch... i prefer EAC+Lame for ripping and explorer for copying |
| 08:09:23 | Kshain | ah yas me too usually |
| 08:09:32 | Kshain | I just like the enhancer and volume leveler |
| 08:09:54 | hardeep | hmmmm, there is a freeware volume leveller i've heard mentioned |
| 08:10:32 | Kshain | I'll check that out |
| 08:10:36 | Kshain | thanks again |

| 19:17:03 | wethion | Greets. I've got a Jukebox studio I'm trying to get working. I'm running Debian unstable with a 2.5.54 kernel. I have ISD-200, PCI hotplug, USB support and USB mass storage in the kernel. I got and installed the software for hotplugging from sourceforge, and installed it with some minor modifications because I'm running debian rather than RH. When I tell the hotplug init script to start, I get "Can't synthesize pci hotplug even |
| 19:19:43 | * | wethion nods 'Thanks' to schuepf for getting me this far. |
| 19:21:19 | schuepf | wethion: but usb doesn't run by now ? |
| 19:22:20 | schuepf | you do also need SCSI support to be able to mount the device |
| 19:23:56 | wethion | schuepf: I an running an all scsi system already.. Oh, I also installed ATA support in the kernel jic. |
| 19:25:22 | schuepf | do you get an usb.c output in syslog when unplugging the archos ? |
| 19:28:41 | wethion | all I'm getting in syslog is 'please use usbfs filetype instead, the usbdevfs name is deprecated.' |
| 19:29:21 | wethion | and that's only when I start the hotplug init script. |
| 19:29:51 | wethion | is it as simple as editing the script to use usbfs rather than usbdevfs? |
| 19:37:20 | wethion | I just ran /sbin/hotplug manually, with usb as an argument, and the syslog spits out "/etc/hotplug/usb.agent: Bad USB agent invocation." |
| 19:40:02 | wethion | fsck. after additional reading of the hotplug man page, I reran /sbin/hotplug add usb, and syslog reports "no runnable /etc/hotplug/add.agent is installed. Did I miss something? |
| 19:52:56 | schuepf | do you find a /etc/hotplug/usb.agent file ? |
| 19:54:19 | schuepf | also there should be a usb.distmap file |
| 19:57:24 | | Join Kshain [0] (Kshain@216.83.45.17) |
| 19:57:42 | Kshain | k people, got another question for whoever can give me a moment |
| 20:00 |
| 20:00:41 | schuepf | kshain: so, where's your question ?... |
| 20:01:03 | wethion | schuepf: both are tehre. |
| 20:01:49 | schuepf | wethion: hmm, I found that I use the usbdevfs ! |
| 20:02:13 | wethion | schuepf: what's the exact commandline I should be entering. perhaps am reading things wrong... |
| 20:03:11 | schuepf | do you already have started the usb.rc ? |
| 20:04:00 | wethion | I have no usb.rc, I did start the hotplug init script in /etc/init.d however. |
| 20:05:31 | schuepf | well my system starts usb.rc from /etc/hotplug when invoking /etc/init.d/hotplug |
| 20:06:22 | wethion | Whoops.. I didn't update the locate database.. :) I do indeed have a usb.rc in /etc/hotplug. |
| 20:07:06 | Kshain | sorry |
| 20:07:18 | Kshain | got distracted for a sec |
| 20:08:02 | Kshain | my question is whats up with the updates? for the last three-four days ive dloaded the daily and/or bleeding edge builds, and I checked the version −− there was no actual update |
| 20:08:09 | Kshain | the version # is still the same |
| 20:08:16 | wethion | WTF.. what's QM_MODULES? |
| 20:08:21 | schuepf | wethion: and you have a setup in /etc/sysconfig/hotplug - there the rc uses variables from |
| 20:09:21 | schuepf | don't know QM_MODULES... |
| 20:11:21 | schuepf | in my rc there something which maybe helps you with the synthesize output: |
| 20:11:25 | schuepf | # if USB is partially initted, synthesize hotplug events since |
| 20:11:27 | schuepf | # the kernel probably dropped them (missing root, unwritable /tmp) |
| 20:11:28 | schuepf | if [ -d /proc/bus/usb -a `ls /proc/bus/usb 2>&1 | wc -l` -gt 2 ]; then |
| 20:11:29 | schuepf | SYNTHESIZE=true |
| 20:11:31 | schuepf | fi |
| 20:12:10 | wethion | I just did a lsmod and got returned: "QM-MODULES: functin not implemented" |
| 20:12:18 | wethion | lemme try that snippet.. |
| 20:12:28 | schuepf | where do you need these ? |
| 20:13:07 | wethion | I dunno.. I have apparently *no* modules loaded accdg to lsmod. |
| 20:13:49 | schuepf | did you set all the usb stuff to be compiled into the kernel ? |
| 20:14:02 | Kshain | ah well, someone just say so when they have a moment |
| 20:14:37 | wethion | No, I compiled them all as modules as per rockbox suggestion. |
| 20:14:59 | wethion | lemme poke around..brb |
| 20:15:35 | schuepf | so try to load usbcore via modprobe: modprobe -q usbcore |
| 20:16:36 | schuepf | wethion: maybe this is all a bit off topic...should we switch to another room ? |
| 20:17:04 | | Quit ricII (Read error: 113 (No route to host)) |
| 20:17:47 | wethion | all I get is a QM_MODULES error.. There's something screwy with my kernel.. I'm going to look around to see WTF is going on. |
| 20:18:45 | schuepf | maybe you forgot the modules support ;-)) |
| 20:21:43 | wethion | schuepf: There's a bug in the kernel.. have to patch it... Ok, I'll be back later. Hey, Thank you for your help, it's appreciated. |
| 20:22:38 | Kshain | alright, anyone available to give me a bit of help now? |
| 20:23:47 | *** | Saving seen data "./dancer.seen" |
| 20:23:55 | schuepf | I would if I had an idea ;-) |
| 20:24:43 | Kshain | ah you dont know why the updates arnt happening? |
| 20:25:10 | schuepf | no, I've recognized that also... |
| 20:25:39 | Kshain | hmmm ok. Just making sure I wasnt the only one this was happening too |

| 20:33:51 | Kshain | anyone here use MusicMatch? |
| 20:37:15 | Kshain | well, anyone that can give me help with it? |
| 20:41:46 | ricII | no, maybe |
| 20:42:58 | Kshain | well, if you dont have musicmatch, your probably not gonna know what Im talking about |
| 20:43:14 | Kshain | what software do you use with your archos? |
| 20:47:35 | ricII | I'm grip (linuxppc) |
| 20:47:43 | ricII | s/m/use |
| 20:48:58 | Kshain | ahhh damn |
| 20:49:00 | Kshain | ok |
| 20:49:23 | ricII | but on windows there is cdex.. |
| 20:50:48 | Kshain | whats that? |
| 20:51:01 | ricII | cd ripper/mp3 encoder |
| 20:51:28 | Kshain | ah. Well I like using musicmatch primarily because of volume leveling and the mp3 enhancer |
| 20:51:42 | Kshain | you dont by any chance know any software that has those do you? |
| 20:52:29 | ricII | mp3 enhancer, hmm whats that. CDex handles volume leveling. |
| 20:55:51 | Kshain | its a prog that you use to screw with stuff like the fidelity, ambiance, dynamic boost, 3d sound etc.. |
| 20:58:09 | ricII | so more a kindof audio editing, filtering. |
| 20:58:46 | PsycoXul | i doubt it makes up for the probably poor quality musicmatch encodes at :p |
| 21:00 |
| 21:00:32 | Kshain | yah to ric, maybe to psycho |
| 21:00:36 | Kshain | :) |
| 21:00:57 | PsycoXul | there's no h in my name :p |
| 21:01:18 | Kshain | oh yah. Missed that |
| 21:01:56 | Kshain | ric: do you only use cdex to rip? or can you use it to update to your archos too? |
| 21:03:43 | PsycoXul | heh i'm sitting here dovnloading all this software and stuff for my pda that won't even get here till the 10th |
| 21:03:46 | ricII | Kshain: to move files from&to the archos I use the os native drivers.. |
| 21:05:15 | Kshain | hmmm. thats how i usually do it too, but then I cant use vol lvling and the enhancer |
| 21:05:27 | PsycoXul | heh |
| 21:06:33 | Kshain | what pda? |
| 21:06:47 | Kshain | (what type i mean) |
| 21:06:59 | PsycoXul | casio be-300 |
| 21:07:25 | PsycoXul | it's s "pocket manager" |
| 21:07:31 | PsycoXul | which just means that it's not quite a pocket pc |
| 21:07:31 | PsycoXul | heh |
| 21:07:35 | Kshain | is that a good one? Im not exactly a professional on pda's |
| 21:07:43 | PsycoXul | well from all i've read |
| 21:07:59 | PsycoXul | the only people who like it are the people who hack it |
| 21:08:13 | PsycoXul | and put on the alternative OS's and 3rd party software |
| 21:08:36 | Kshain | lol and let me guess- your gonna hack the shit out of it |
| 21:08:46 | PsycoXul | hehe |
| 21:09:15 | PsycoXul | damn straight |
| 21:10:24 | Kshain | fun fun fun |
| 21:10:36 | PsycoXul | i've already downloaded this thing called expod or somesuch |
| 21:10:44 | PsycoXul | it's like an alternate OS sorta deal for this pda |
| 21:10:58 | PsycoXul | makes a lot of pocket pc software run on it |

| 21:12:20 | PsycoXul | i was just looking for a cheap pda to replace a pen and paper notepad |
| 21:12:43 | PsycoXul | then i saw i could get one with a 240x320 color screen, sound, and 166mhz MIPS CPU for ~$100 |
| 21:13:37 | Kshain | ah |
| 21:13:48 | PsycoXul | and then when i went searching for more info about it, i saw all these people hacking it into similar capabilities as the $250+ pocket pc's and such, and so now i'm getting excited :p |
| 21:14:12 | Kshain | lol. Dont get your hopes to far up. Alot of times these hacks are skrewy |
| 21:14:24 | PsycoXul | well yeah |
| 21:14:26 | Kshain | not in all cases though (rockbox etc...) |
| 21:14:34 | PsycoXul | i'll still be happy just to have what i wanted it for to start with |
| 21:14:59 | Kshain | yah. I was gonna get a pda but.... id never use it :) |
| 21:15:24 | PsycoXul | being able to play gameboy, (s)nes games, doom... and a bunch of nice software for misc stuff |
| 21:15:27 | PsycoXul | is all bonus |
| 21:15:32 | Kshain | oh thats cool |
| 21:15:43 | PsycoXul | it can even play divx movies |
| 21:16:16 | PsycoXul | though it's only got 16mb built in and i've only got an 8mb CF card to use with it, so... heh |
| 21:17:34 | Kshain | yah I heard they might get it up to a ps emulator lvl |
| 21:18:02 | PsycoXul | haha |
| 21:18:08 | PsycoXul | nah |
| 21:18:13 | PsycoXul | apparently it barely handles snes |
| 21:18:42 | PsycoXul | so it can't even do gba emulation fast enough to be playable (or at least, last i heard.. i guess somebody was working on it anyway though heh) |
| 21:23:13 | Kshain | ah, maybe not then |
| 21:23:31 | Kshain | maybe Im thinking about the handheld pc? |
| 21:23:38 | PsycoXul | *shrug* |
| 21:23:51 | Kshain | anyhow, any of you guys use kazaa lite? |
| 21:23:57 | Kshain | or kazaa? |
| 21:24:09 | PsycoXul | i use mldonkey (edonkey network) |
| 21:24:57 | Kshain | is it any good? |
| 21:25:04 | PsycoXul | *shrug* |
| 21:25:20 | PsycoXul | it's kinda flakey |
| 21:25:31 | Kshain | if not, get kazaa lite + the new 2.02+ update |
| 21:25:34 | Kshain | it kicks ass |
| 21:25:39 | PsycoXul | i've had fight club svcd disc2 at 97.7% for like a month or 2 now |
| 21:25:55 | PsycoXul | when i tried kazaa it sucked |
| 21:26:03 | Kshain | kazaa or kazaa lite? |
| 21:26:04 | PsycoXul | the linux client was a cheap POS and i couldn't find stuff i wanted |
| 21:26:05 | PsycoXul | heh |
| 21:27:30 | Kshain | kazaa or kazaa lite? |
| 21:27:49 | PsycoXul | never heard of kazaa lite |
| 21:28:07 | PsycoXul | sounds like it's just a 'lite' version of the program itself |
| 21:28:13 | PsycoXul | and i didn't use the windows program, i used the linux one |
| 21:29:46 | Kshain | hmmm. Well Kazaa lite is great |
| 21:29:51 | Kshain | kazaa by itself sucks |
