00:31:40 | LinusN | (building a toolchain) |
00:31:49 | Zagor | m68k-elf |
00:31:53 | LinusN | thx |
00:32:59 | amiconn | LinusN: Did you read about my file system stress test? |
00:33:10 | LinusN | yes, any results? |
00:33:57 | amiconn | Still running, but it already read back and compared >1 GB. No single bit error so far :) |
00:34:41 | | Quit midk ("just STOP it arspy") |
00:40:29 | LinusN | maybe there is some code that disabled the irq for a long time |
00:40:52 | LinusN | or that the inverted LED affected some port bit fiddling somewhere |
00:42:52 | amiconn | ..or this really has to do with the spdif recording bug of the mas. I can't test yet, but I'm just collecting parts for building a toslink->chinch converter, buying the missing parts tomorrow |
00:43:15 | LinusN | do you have a 48kHz source? |
00:43:34 | amiconn | No, 44.1 kHz only (CD) |
00:43:50 | LinusN | if this is the s/pdif bug, then why is it working so well with 2.2? |
00:44:47 | amiconn | I have no idea, but I still want to test to rule this out |
00:45:40 | LinusN | and he also claims it works better on an empty disk |
00:46:07 | amiconn | Yes, that's indeed strange. Perhaps he should test with my test plugin? |
00:47:04 | *** | Saving seen data "./dancer.seen" |
00:47:59 | amiconn | (It would need a bit of polishing, and it requires a custom .ajz because fsync() is not in the plugin api in cvs) |
00:48:18 | LinusN | he says it got worse somewhere around when i changed the led behaviour |
00:49:15 | amiconn | Yes, but he also says he can't remember exactly which version and therefore which change introduced this. The led change did nothing to the low level recording code... |
00:50:49 | | Quit GhUl (Remote closed the connection) |
00:51:54 | amiconn | The recording led change was introduced on Jun 22. Only 3 weeks before that (Jun 3) you introduced recording pause, which _did_ change the recording code... |
00:51:59 | Zagor | i'm off to bed. see you tomorrow. |
00:52:01 | | Quit Zagor ("Client exiting") |
00:52:13 | LinusN | amiconn: yeah, i'm looking at that code as we speak |
00:54:40 | LinusN | we should build a pre-pause version and have him test it |
00:58:27 | amiconn | Btw, you fix to get the complete last frame apparently doesn't work. |

01:45:51 | amiconn | LinusN: On 2004-08-20, Paul responded on the ml that a special version you sent to him fixed the recording problems. What was special in that version? |
01:46:51 | amiconn | Err, this was 2004-08-10, and on 2004-08-20 he said that there are still many bad frames |
01:47:22 | LinusN | he had two problems, 1) it spontaneously froze, 2) corrupt frames |
01:47:43 | LinusN | 1) was fixed by disabling ATA optimization |
01:47:52 | LinusN | (my special build) |
01:48:03 | amiconn | I wonder if his hd has a hw problem... |
01:48:25 | LinusN | then 2.2 should fail as well |

04:34:21 | midk | at the wps only: f1+down |
04:34:37 | ZaNe | cool thank u much |
04:35:02 | ZaNe | how do u install a patch?> |
04:35:02 | midk | p |
04:35:07 | midk | np* |
04:35:16 | midk | you have to set up a development environment |
04:36:00 | ZaNe | ? Im party stupid when it comes to that stuff ? |
04:36:33 | midk | :) sadly i just today reinstalled linux, haven't yet re-setup my environment, otherwise i could do it for you... |
04:36:54 | ZaNe | how can i get a environment up? |
04:36:54 | midk | you could try bc's devkit, that will give you an environment, but you still have to apply the patch and compile yourself |
04:37:16 | ZaNe | ic wat kind of script does it use? |
04:37:36 | midk | a makefile |
04:37:44 | midk | http://homepage.ntlworld.com/cyborgsystems/CS_Main/RockBox/RockBox.htm |
04:37:49 | midk | look here for the devkit |
04:39:05 | ZaNe | kk |
04:39:37 | midk | there's a tutorial for building there, as well.. after you get it compiled you just have to read the patch doc to learn how to apply the patch and then just re-run make |
04:39:57 | ZaNe | ic |
04:40:05 | ZaNe | kool i will look into that |
04:40:18 | ZaNe | but do you know if there are ne kind of screen saver stuff out |
04:40:21 | midk | if you've got a specific question, feel free to ask |
04:40:31 | ZaNe | like after a certan mount of time it runs a plugin |
04:40:33 | midk | the plugins work as screen savers.. do you have a recorder? |
04:40:38 | ZaNe | ya |
04:40:41 | midk | no (not yet at least) |

07:10:38 | LinusN | you could donate to the rockbox paypal account |
07:10:40 | dwihno | I guess the rockbox fund might be used for that |
07:10:53 | dwihno | Morning, Linus |
07:10:58 | LinusN | we have bought one already with that money |
07:11:14 | LinusN | and i have taken it apart |
07:11:38 | midk | it's good to know that our money is given to linus so he can purchase things to disassemble. ;) |
07:11:38 | plok | Unsoldered the CPU? |
07:11:42 | LinusN | but i want a device that i can destroy |
07:11:56 | midk | uh-oh. |
07:12:10 | LinusN | midk: unsoldering the CPU |
07:12:23 | dwihno | LinusN: Ah. Interesting way to get rid of the aggrevations :) |
07:12:30 | LinusN | hehe |
07:12:35 | dwihno | I smash my porcelain when I'm feeling angry ;) |
07:13:18 | LinusN | it seems like iriver is very generous with returns, even when the user has killed the box |
07:13:35 | LinusN | so there aren't many broken ones out there |
07:14:07 | LinusN | and those with broken ones probably don't hang out here or in the iriver forums :-) |
07:14:22 | dwihno | LinusN: why do you want to unsolder it? |
07:14:38 | LinusN | it's a BGA package, which means that i can't get to the pins for measuring |
07:15:11 | dwihno | okay |
07:15:29 | LinusN | and it's extremely difficult to solder it back |
07:15:46 | LinusN | and unsoldering it without melting the cpu is hard as well |
07:16:24 | dwihno | you need to unsolder the cpu, fix the "broken" unit and solder it back along with attached cables for measuring? |
07:16:36 | * | dwihno knows nothing of these hardware ninja moves |
07:16:44 | plok | Linus, based on what you know, what are the chances that a successful port to the iHP1xx range will mean a successful port to h300 range? |
07:16:52 | LinusN | no, soldering it back is virtually impossible |
07:17:05 | dwihno | LinusN: so how are you going to measure it? |
07:17:11 | LinusN | plok: the chances are good |
07:17:46 | LinusN | dwihno: i'm not measuring live signals, i'll just check which pins go to which chip |
07:18:02 | LinusN | to draw schematics |
07:18:14 | dwihno | LinusN: aah.... when you said measuring, I started thinking volt meters and stuff |
07:18:34 | dwihno | "stuff" including virtually anything regarding electronics ;) |

07:34:15 | plok | When making a Paypal payment with a credit card, is it treated as a cash advance or just a normal credit card payment? |
07:34:39 | LinusN | a normal payment, afaik |
07:35:15 | LinusN | when i pay, i see nothing special in my eurocard bill |
07:37:25 | plok | Sorry, never used paypal before. Do I make a payment to paypal and have that much credit on my paypal account, then make payments to rockbox from that paypal balance? |
07:43:11 | LinusN | afaik, you don't even have to have a paypal account to make a payment |
07:44:13 | plok | I see, making a donation now. Do you have any idea of how far away we are from getting another iRiver to sacrifice? |

08:02:53 | LinusN | hola |
08:05:40 | amiconn | My filesystem test completed without a surprise, i.e. without a single bit error. Rockbox file system seems to be rock solid :) |
08:07:04 | LinusN | i don't know if i should be happy or not :-) |
08:09:48 | amiconn | I plan to try another modification this evening, and have some question |
08:09:50 | amiconn | s |
08:11:09 | amiconn | (1, this has nothing to do with my modif, but it's suspicious) the SCI0 init seems to be wrong. It's no bug, but it doesn't do exactly what the comment says if I am correct: |
08:12:08 | amiconn | The comment says "set baud rate to 1 MBit/s", but BRR0=3 is 750 kBit/s if I read the datasheet correctly |
08:12:58 | plok | Linus, would you estimate the iRiver CPU is beefy enough to play movies? |
08:13:17 | LinusN | amiconn: i bet it's correct on the player |
08:13:39 | LinusN | plok: sure |
08:13:59 | amiconn | LinusN: This calculation is based on 12 MHz clock. Did you measure the generated clock? |
08:14:00 | LinusN | if the jukebox can do it, the iriver will do it as well |
08:14:19 | LinusN | amiconn: i think i did, but that was a loooong time ago |
08:14:21 | plok | The screen on the H340 is really good :) |
08:14:29 | LinusN | plok: i haven't seen it |

08:21:17 | Zagor | morning |
08:21:40 | amiconn | LinusN: (2) Why do we transfer max. 30 bytes from rec_tick() ? If we transfer as long as eod is low, and if it goes high wait a short time (< 5 usec) to see if it goes low again, this should automatically give us all dma blocks belonging to a frame? |
08:22:19 | amiconn | (3) Doing this would required that the irq is no ,longer edge detect, but level detect? |
08:22:27 | LinusN | yes, but i didn't want to do that, since it would hog the cpu for quite a while |
08:23:04 | LinusN | however, the optimized loop would not take that much time, would it? |
08:23:29 | LinusN | hi Zagor |
08:23:46 | | Join [IDC]Dragon [0] (~50861e1a@labb.contactor.se) |
08:23:56 | amiconn | LinusN: Hmm. As it is now, the next irq follows immediately at return from the isr, so it wouldn't make a difference, would it? |
08:24:05 | LinusN | not really |
08:24:07 | [IDC]Dragon | morning! |
08:24:35 | amiconn | In fact, this could be even faster, because the additional return->call sequences are saved |
08:24:41 | LinusN | i remember having problems with that approach back then, but we should try it again |
08:24:44 | amiconn | morning Jörg |
08:25:55 | [IDC]Dragon | just to bore you iriver guys: the ondio has a backlight preparation |
08:26:07 | amiconn | LinusN: Well, maybe it will still not deliver a complete frame, because the dma blocks are 30 bytes each, and there may be a smaller residue |
08:26:45 | [IDC]Dragon | I just measured the live I/O signal to the empty footprint, it behaves like a backlight level |
08:26:58 | amiconn | I wonder how the archos guys did it - the archos fw doesn't save a truncated frame at the end |
08:27:02 | Zagor | [IDC]Dragon: but no components (leds) mounted? |
08:27:04 | LinusN | no, it will not give us a complete frame, but the burst transfer will probably be more effective |
08:27:25 | [IDC]Dragon | I think it's EL, not LEDs |
08:27:47 | Zagor | ok |
08:27:54 | [IDC]Dragon | for LEDs, the PCB would need a preparation (footprints) |
08:28:41 | amiconn | [IDC]Dragon: Perhaps the Ondio SP has backlight... |
08:29:08 | [IDC]Dragon | educate me about the iriver status: is it possible to execute own code? |
08:30:25 | [IDC]Dragon | amiconn: I've googled for ondia and backlight, the reviews I saw complain about it's absence |
08:30:48 | amiconn | ah |
08:31:07 | [IDC]Dragon | butI sure don't mind you getting one with |
08:31:12 | LinusN | [IDC]Dragon: not yet, we need a BDM interface |
08:31:39 | [IDC]Dragon | isn't there some hacks to exchange the bitmaps in the firmware? |
08:31:58 | plok | Linus, in keeping with my very premature questions.. the H340 has USB on the go that will mount a device that identifies as a Mass Storage Device. If we get rockbox working, is it at all possible we'd be able to write custom drivers for other USB devic |
08:31:59 | plok | es? |
08:32:32 | LinusN | [IDC]Dragon: yes, we can create a flash image, but we don't want to do it until we have a safe way of reflashing a dead box |
08:32:46 | LinusN | plok: no |
08:32:54 | LinusN | different USB chips |
08:32:55 | [IDC]Dragon | ah, sounds familiar to me ;-) |
08:33:07 | plok | oh well! :) |
08:33:36 | LinusN | the first thing we want to do is an iriver-rolo |
08:34:05 | [IDC]Dragon | the iriver has no procedure to boot from disk? |
08:34:47 | plok | Hmm.. when I upgraded my iRiver firmware I had to copy to disk but then go into a menu item and manually update the firmware from there |
08:37:22 | amiconn | [IDC]Dragon: I'm going to buy the missing parts for my toslink converter today. Only 3 parts missing after I digged up some parts from my "collection" |
08:38:02 | amiconn | I also found schematics for the reverse converter, but are not going to implement that for now |

08:52:00 | pike | Zagor, have you "played around" with your iriver? which fw version ? |
08:52:20 | Zagor | pike: linus has our only hardware yet |
08:52:35 | plok | the H340 has 9 buttons + a sliding Hold switch |
08:52:36 | Zagor | in lots of small pieces... :) |
08:52:42 | pike | oh.. my mistake.. |
08:52:56 | Zagor | right, i didn't count the hold switch. h100 has it too |
08:54:00 | pike | I see that irivernordic/directman is online on msn now.. but I'll not discuss with them, coz one unified front is best |
08:54:00 | plok | Can we advertise for 2nd hand irivers on mistic river? |
08:55:31 | Zagor | i don't see why not, if they have a suitable place for it |
08:56:01 | pike | there's also irivers official forum to consider |
08:56:08 | pike | and alot of mispleased iriver users |

13:37:12 | dwihno | If this decoder will use less juice |
13:38:18 | Zagor | well i'm guessing iriver uses motorola's mp3 decoder, which is probably rather heavily optimised. so we'll probably use more power at least initially |

13:40:46 | amiconn | Zagor: If you can get hold of the sources, there is a highly optimized 68k mp1/2/3 decoder library for the amiga: mpega.library by Stephane Tavenard |
13:41:09 | pike | Yes, the 6502 emulation is very fast in PlaySID, actually the emulation code is constructed by a program, and it uses every kind of dirty trick I could imagine |
13:41:32 | Zagor | i think focusing on the emac will bring us the most bang/buck |
13:41:59 | LinusN | yup |
13:42:19 | LinusN | there is no bdm code for m68k in the official gdb |
13:42:35 | Zagor | hence the sf project |

13:50:38 | amiconn | The mpega.library by Stephane Tavenard is still 2 times faster than this optimized libmad version |
13:54:25 | | Quit R3nTiL () |
13:58:52 | Zagor | i don't see this being optimised much at all. seems more to be a mpega wrapper around libmad |
13:59:25 | pike | yeah I may bw wrong, he may have just used some switches to make it a tad faster |
13:59:33 | pike | compiling wise |
13:59:46 | Zagor | yeah that what it looks like to me |
14:00 |
14:04:42 | Zagor | ah, finally found some power numbers: 1.3mW/MHz |
14:05:23 | Zagor | at 96MHz that means 125mW |
14:06:50 | Zagor | am i calculating all wrong, or is that less than the sh7034@12MHz? |
14:07:38 | Zagor | a motorola sheet claims "MP3 decoder requires only 19MHz" |
14:09:02 | LinusN | looks like i have to extend the ocd driver in gdb for the macraigor ocd wiggler |
14:09:13 | LinusN | well, well... |
14:09:28 | LinusN | i don't mind |
14:09:31 | Zagor | it's not like you have anything better to do ;-> |
14:23:01 | tboy | ehm...one question |
14:23:52 | tboy | I read somewhere that compiling with -Os should give me a smaller binary |
14:23:58 | tboy | so I could get it to fit my FM |
14:24:54 | tboy | now I've tried adding this in the makefile |
14:25:04 | tboy | I guess this is wrong |
14:25:10 | tboy | since its not working |
14:25:22 | Zagor | you need it in both firmware/Makefile and apps/Makefile |
14:25:39 | Zagor | i don't know if it actually makes the binary small enough to fit though. haven't tried it. |
14:25:40 | tboy | so I just add it behind -C |
14:25:50 | Zagor | no, add it in CFLAGS |
14:26:16 | tboy | ok |

14:32:07 | benschi | everything fine? |
14:32:59 | Zagor | yep |
14:33:40 | tboy | yes it made it smaller |
14:33:44 | tboy | about 1500 bytes |
14:34:02 | tboy | I thank thats ok |
14:36:37 | benschi | any news about the LCD screen? |
14:37:26 | Zagor | nothing more than Dan Hollis verifying that it's not one from andilcd.de |
14:40:02 | Zagor | we'll have to measure the signals and/or disassemble the firmware. the markings appear to be a dead end. |
14:40:49 | tboy | Zagor, do you have a iriver? |
14:40:58 | tboy | an iriver? |
14:41:03 | LinusN | yes, but i have it |
14:41:13 | tboy | ^^ ok |
14:41:47 | tboy | it sounds kinda exciting |
14:42:02 | LinusN | it's fun, yes |
14:42:44 | tboy | I guess the newer iriver, the ones with the color displays, use different cpus etc. |
14:42:50 | LinusN | same cpu |
14:43:13 | LinusN | different lcd and different usb chip, but it looks like a lot of things are the same |
14:43:36 | tboy | is the iriver you got there, linus, a ihp-1xx? |
14:43:42 | LinusN | yup |
14:43:44 | LinusN | 120 |
14:43:54 | Zagor | we could use some scans of that too :-) I bet they use the Philips ISP1362 USB OTG Controller |
14:44:05 | LinusN | aha |
14:44:17 | tboy | the ihp usb 2.0 |
14:45:01 | tboy | don't the 110 have less memory than the 120-140? |
14:45:29 | LinusN | i don't know |
14:45:37 | tboy | oh ok |
14:46:35 | tboy | so with this cpu that the ihp are using, will you guys be able to use integrate decoders for codecs like AAC/MP4 |
14:47:19 | *** | Saving seen data "./dancer.seen" |
14:48:58 | tboy | ? |
14:49:06 | LinusN | any coded that has free source code and doesn't eat too much cpu |
14:49:59 | LinusN | codec |
14:50:22 | tboy | well I'm not that fond of ogg, doesn't it need pretty much juice |
14:50:52 | LinusN | it does, but it's perfectly possible |
14:51:03 | tboy | ok |
14:51:46 | LinusN | i mean, the original firmware plays ogg, so why shouldn't we? |
14:53:01 | pike | FAAD2 :) |
14:54:18 | Zagor | aac license fees: 1 to 100,000 units: $0.50/unit |
14:55:01 | LinusN | thanks a lot :-( |
14:55:05 | pike | really? FAAD 2.0 src http://www.audiocoding.com/modules/mydownloads/visit.php?cid=1&lid=4 |
14:55:08 | pike | for decoders? |
14:55:26 | pike | how can they host this freely then? |
14:56:16 | Zagor | the license is for apples codec. i didn't know about faac. |
14:57:09 | tboy | http://www.audiocoding.com/modules/wiki/?page=FAAD2 |
14:57:33 | tboy | guess this could be used, right? |
14:57:36 | pike | FAAD2 is a HE, LC, MAIN and LTP profile, MPEG2 and MPEG-4 AAC decoder. |
14:57:36 | pike | FAAD2 includes code for SBR (HE AAC) decoding. |
14:57:36 | pike | FAAD2 is licensed under the GPL. |
14:58:03 | pike | sbr is nice, it's what mp3 pro did for mp3 (not that I like mp3 pro) |
15:00 |
15:00:20 | Zagor | unfortunately it's a floating-point implementation, which most likely means the coldfire will run it too slowly |

15:09:06 | Zagor | well let's just say the floating point issue stops it and leave it at that :) |
15:09:18 | tboy | ok |
15:09:39 | pike | not for me, I'll continue hunting for a decoder that *could work* :) |
15:11:27 | tboy | well it would be cool to find one that is free of payment/royalties and floating points ;) |
15:12:16 | Zagor | the patent virus is unfortunately uncurable. the own the *idea* of aac compression, and there is no way to get around it. |
15:12:40 | Zagor | ..other than supporting FFII in their work for stopping software patents in europe |
15:13:11 | pike | btw.. isnt their roaylties for mp3 decoders also? |
15:13:56 | Zagor | i won't discuss legal issues in this channel. sorry. |
15:18:03 | tboy | ok, I got rockbox for my FM to fit the memory |
15:18:09 | tboy | or the flash rom |
15:18:37 | Zagor | one way to handle the dual displays semi-easily would be to display the remote buffer on the main unit when the remote is plugged in. then we "only" have to support dynamic sizing, not two different buffers |
15:18:40 | tboy | I'm gonna try to rolo my build and see how I crippled the debug menu |
15:19:38 | Zagor | amiconn, LinusN: how are we on the spdif issue? is it a confirmed bug or are we chasing a ghost someone says exists? |
15:20:20 | LinusN | well, i haven't verified it with s/pdif, and neither has amiconn |
15:20:38 | LinusN | but it's probably not a ghost |

15:29:24 | Zagor | tboy: works? |
15:29:31 | tboy | yes |
15:29:34 | tboy | I flashed it |
15:29:37 | Zagor | congratulations |
15:29:42 | tboy | and its running |
15:29:50 | * | Zagor smells a "but" |
15:29:56 | tboy | ^^ well |
15:30:47 | tboy | oh ok, I think now I understand the whole thing |
15:30:48 | tboy | ^^ |
15:31:00 | tboy | rombox is just the normal ucl, but uncompressed |
15:31:02 | tboy | right? |
15:31:16 | tboy | I thought it was a different bootloader |
15:31:23 | tboy | well ok, its working fine |
15:32:36 | tboy | shouldn't I have more free buffer now? |
15:33:01 | Zagor | yes, a bit |
15:33:31 | tboy | it dowsn't seem to have changed, or is it only that marginal |
15:33:40 | tboy | that I can't see it |
15:33:51 | tboy | well it says 1.780mb |
15:34:02 | Zagor | wiki says "about 170 kb more ram" |
15:34:25 | tboy | hmm maybe I got pawned :D |
15:34:29 | tboy | no just joking |
15:34:54 | Zagor | my non-fm has 1.615 free without rombox, so I'd say you simply remember wrong :) |
15:35:06 | tboy | ok that could be it |
15:35:08 | tboy | :) |

15:36:52 | tboy | is it some sorta log-thing? |
15:37:05 | Zagor | it's for catching buggy code that writes in bad addresses |
15:37:12 | tboy | ok |
15:38:17 | tboy | yep you're right about me remembering wrong |
15:38:34 | tboy | mine has 1.614mb free without rombox |
15:41:29 | tboy | I just noticed something |
15:42:05 | tboy | I didn't know you guys implemented gapless play |
15:42:33 | tboy | or I haven't been paying attention to the development |
15:42:39 | Zagor | that's old |
15:42:42 | tboy | dangh |
15:42:54 | tboy | :) well |
15:43:16 | tboy | you guys have really made this mp3 player a whole lot better |
15:43:21 | Zagor | but it requires that the mp3 data is prepared for it |
15:43:38 | Zagor | well there wouldn't be much point otherwise, would it? ;) |
15:43:47 | tboy | yes, so it can buffer it in time |
15:44:11 | tboy | yea, but I admire what you guys are doing |
15:44:35 | Zagor | not just so we can buffer the data, the internals of the format is not designed for gapless playback so you need to make your files gapless specifically |
15:44:57 | tboy | oh ok |
15:45:25 | Zagor | http://lame.sourceforge.net/tech-FAQ.txt if you really want to know :) |
15:45:37 | tboy | is there any other project like rockbox, that has had any success |
15:46:35 | Zagor | it depends on what you mean "like rockbox". another mp3 player firmware? no |
15:46:54 | tboy | success as rockbox has achived |
15:47:29 | Zagor | that is very subjective. i like to think we are pretty unique, but i'm sure there are people who disagree. |
15:47:30 | tboy | oopss type achieved |
15:48:22 | tboy | well yea I guess unique is the right word, now that I think of Linux on Ipod and the avos project |
15:48:39 | tboy | those two are both trying to get linux running on their devices |
15:49:03 | tboy | while rockbox is an os built from scratch |
15:49:24 | tboy | and which objective is to be a good music player |
15:49:34 | tboy | with some nice features on the side :) |
15:50:23 | Zagor | those two also don't have a finished product that users are running |
15:51:21 | tboy | exactly, that kinda success has not been reached by any other project, that I know. |

16:48:37 | | Quit Elemeno () |
16:48:53 | Zagor | LePoulpe303: and even if it was fragmented, you would not gain anything measurable by defragmenting it since disk access is very sparse |

16:52:26 | pike | argument is valid, if all you do is fill your hd, then never removes tunes |
16:52:35 | pike | remove |
16:52:59 | LePoulpe303 | i remove a lot |
16:53:19 | LePoulpe303 | i put 10 albums ; i keep 5 songs ; then 10 albums again , etc .. |
16:53:55 | Zagor | mp3 files are so big that fragmentation doesn't become an issue even with lots of add/remove |
16:55:27 | Zagor | yes, the files are fragmented. but each fragment is big enough that it does not become a performance penalty |

21:14:34 | [IDC]Dragon | no |
21:14:46 | [IDC]Dragon | I want to take off the daughterboard |
21:15:03 | amiconn | Chances are the dautherboard is not there in the SP... |
21:15:08 | [IDC]Dragon | so I can measure at the USB bridge while operating |
21:15:23 | [IDC]Dragon | it will be there |
21:15:23 | amiconn | *daughterboard |
21:15:32 | [IDC]Dragon | it carries the ear jack |
21:15:39 | amiconn | Aha |
21:15:50 | amiconn | Nothing else? |
21:15:51 | [IDC]Dragon | dunno why they made it this way round |
21:16:07 | [IDC]Dragon | the recording jack is on the main PCB |
21:16:29 | [IDC]Dragon | no, else there's only the tuner on that board |
21:17:20 | amiconn | No line in jack on the SP, there is a blind plug at that place |
21:17:55 | amiconn | The archos fw handling is not very intuitive, imho |
21:18:28 | amiconn | There is some music "preinstalled", I guess it's the same as on all archos units |
21:18:47 | amiconn | (Don't remember if it was on my v1 though) |
21:18:59 | [IDC]Dragon | I think it was |
21:19:15 | [IDC]Dragon | I liked the handling |
21:19:38 | [IDC]Dragon | with recording and FM not hidden in some menu |
21:20:23 | amiconn | Maybe it's different on the sp. There is a "main screen" where you can select between settings and browser |
21:21:34 | amiconn | If you go to settings, there is a menu, with sub-items. But if you change a setting. you can only leave with the menu key, jumping back up to the main screen |
21:21:58 | amiconn | If you want to change multiple settings, this is annoying |
21:22:11 | amiconn | Btw, the rockbox idle timeout works |
21:22:34 | [IDC]Dragon | it did power off? |
21:23:00 | amiconn | yes |
21:23:04 | amiconn | I wonder how. There is no pin for switch off given, both in the jukebox port assignmments (except fm/v2) and the Ondio? |
21:23:35 | amiconn | Or do I have to clean my glasses? |
21:23:36 | [IDC]Dragon | that means it has power off like the FM |
21:23:58 | amiconn | How do player and v1 power off? |
21:25:48 | amiconn | We have to do an all-new battery scale... The symbol is constantly flashing |
21:27:45 | amiconn | We really need button debouncing... The Ondio buttons seem to be crap (or you didn't get the levels completely right |
21:27:54 | amiconn | ) |

21:30:13 | [IDC]Dragon | FM and V2 have power on PB5 |
21:30:30 | [IDC]Dragon | for player and V1, it's hardware |
21:31:12 | amiconn | But poweroff by software is possible on player and v1... I wonder how this works |
21:31:49 | [IDC]Dragon | FM and V2 still hardware-power off, but with pressing off for a longer time |
21:31:59 | amiconn | Yes I know |
21:32:04 | [IDC]Dragon | ok |
21:32:19 | [IDC]Dragon | V1 powers off by software? Are you sure? |
21:32:54 | amiconn | Double click off-off -> "safe" powerdown, implemented by Linus. On the player it's in the menu only |
21:33:15 | amiconn | Don't you run a daily build? |
21:33:19 | [IDC]Dragon | about the buttons: have you compared your port readings to my table? |
21:33:23 | amiconn | Or a cvs build even? |
21:33:35 | * | amiconn does it quickly |
21:33:45 | [IDC]Dragon | cvs, but I power it off the old-fashioned way |

22:51:25 | tboy | I've got a little problem |
22:51:47 | tboy | when I try to convert a bitmap to rb with the compiled tools |
22:52:19 | tboy | I end up with the right picture, but its inverted |
22:52:44 | amiconn | [IDC]Dragon: ARgh! Of course it couldn't output anything, since my input power connected broke |
22:52:57 | amiconn | Now it works, nice.... |
22:53:52 | amiconn | Btw, there is a simple rule: SPDIF In is for recording, which is the right channel, and the right plug is usually red. |

23:01:02 | amiconn | When I play back the file I just recorded via spdif, the time & bit rate display is totally f***ed up: Bit rate 813 kbps, and it plays 0:40 of 0:29 (!!) |

23:30:52 | amiconn | mp3fixer really must have a bug: If I feed an mp3fixed file back into mp3fixer, it does find further corrupt frames?! |
23:31:25 | Zagor | does it ever not find corrupt frames, or does it just not fix them? |
23:32:33 | amiconn | It tells that it fixes (i.e. cuts out) the corrupt frames. When using a second time, it spots some more, sometimes at the same and sometimes at other byte addresses. |
23:33:00 | Zagor | what if you run it on a normal lame-created mp3 file? |
23:34:12 | amiconn | I'll try that... |

23:46:01 | * | LinusN is soldering wires to the tiny, tiny lcd connector |
23:48:29 | amiconn | Zagor: Checked a folder of lame-created mp3s. mp3fixer did not find bad frames there. It seems the bad frame detection works, but the fixing is broken |
23:48:37 | Zagor | ok |
23:49:30 | amiconn | Furthermore, mp3fixer has problems displaying byte counts >256 MB |
23:49:36 | LinusN | the lcd seems to be connected in parallel |
23:49:37 | SmoothOperator | On the Ondio, would you be able to use the MMC slot and the onboard memory at the same time with Rockbox, not one or the other like the Archos f/w? |
23:50:39 | LinusN | i'm trying to connect wires for logic analysis to the lcd data bus, but the pads are soooooooo small |
23:50:45 | amiconn | SmoothOperator: Using both at the same time is not possible because of hardware limitations, but we could make it selectable |

23:54:54 | * | [IDC]Dragon gives up uart-booting |
23:55:27 | [IDC]Dragon | somehow it locks up when accessing ROM or Flash |
23:55:47 | [IDC]Dragon | but in general, it works, it has read the flash ID |
