00:17:06bagawkYou can do all the tweaking oyu want when rockbox works on it :)
00:17:12HCltrue :p
00:17:16HClits prolly safer to just wait.
00:17:28HCli'm just impatient :P

00:18:51Digital007should expect my new earphones soon
00:19:22bagawkDigital007, Which did you get?
00:19:52HCla friend of mine recommended these headphones.. and they were like.. 200$, so i'll be saving for a while :X
00:20:08*HCl stepped on his current headphones, left headphone is a bit broken :/
00:21:10Digital007the white Apple uprated earphones, not the standard ones
00:21:30Digital007i don't have an iPod, i have an iRiver H120
00:21:52*HCl has an h140...
00:22:09Digital007im a huge fan of white earphones
00:23:01Digital007how is iRiver box coming on?
00:23:30HCli'm not sure myself, i was just checking the site
00:23:39HClseems they've just added encoding/decoding of normal firmware
00:23:46Digital007yea
00:23:51Digital007will it appear eventually iRiverbox?
00:23:51HClso they can actually make a rockbox firmware file that'll flash onto your iriver
00:24:09 Join markun [0] (~markun@bastards.student.utwente.nl)
00:24:10HClalso, i think that since i last checked the list, backlight support went from 0% to done
00:24:17Digital007cool
00:24:30HClhey markun
00:24:34Digital007hope the iRiverbox will support the remote and its LCD
00:24:43HCl*wonders whether he knows you*
00:24:44markunHi
00:24:52HClwhere're you on campus?
00:24:55bagawkmarkun, hello
00:25:07markunLinus, are you still here?
00:25:08*amiconn needs a faster connection...
00:25:21bagawkHumm i think zeekoe goes to the same place
00:25:24Digital007anyone want to buy a Dell 17" CRT monitor?
00:25:28bagawkamiconn, ???
00:25:28markunHCI: calslaan
00:25:32LinusNamiconn: only 4 hours and 42 minutes left
00:25:32Digital007i replaced it with a Samsung 17" TFT
00:25:40bagawkDigital007, how much? :)
00:25:53Digital007£200
00:26:00bagawkLinusN, of what?
00:26:10Digital007picture quality is fantastic
00:26:12HClmarkun: mmm, you wouldn't happen to have been a gopher at the last minicon? just cause i talked to one who had an iriver and was interested in rockbox..
00:26:16Digital007AND NO DEAD PIXELS WHATSOEVER!
00:26:19markunLinusN: what datatype should I use for unicode strings?
00:26:28amiconnLinusN: Hopefully you use a tool that supports resume ;-)
00:26:33HCl200 pounds for an crt monitor o.o;;;;
00:26:44HClyou can almost buy a new tft for that money o.o
00:26:52bagawkDigital007, maybe if a lived in england, Shipping to here would cost a bit :)
00:26:53markunHCI: Yes, it's me! I now have a Ihp-120.
00:26:57HClah :p
00:26:58HClyay.
00:26:59Digital007my TFT cost £200
00:27:08HCl*waves*
00:27:11Digital007i wasn't selling my CRT for £200

00:27:46HCl00:27 <+cu2q> HCl: GBP 200.00 = USD 375.497
00:27:55Digital007i couldn't imagine having a TFT that had one bright red pixel right in the centre of the screen
00:27:57LinusNmarkun: unsigned char for utf-8?
00:28:01bagawkOhh had it wrong lol
00:28:09quelsarukeuro and pound are higher that dollar right now
00:28:50markunLinusN: I was thinking of using UTF-32, or else we will be decoding the strings all the time.
00:29:01HClmarkun: gonna come to the next minicon? its next saturday
00:29:14Bagderhttp://daniel.haxx.se/currency/ <= my little currency site
00:29:28markunBut I don't know if I can just use long because it's only 16 bit on archos.
00:30:04markunHCI: I don't think I will. My girlfriend's here for the weekend. Maybe.

00:30:27bagawk 100000000 USD (United States Dollar) = 697244400.000 SEK (Sweden Krona)
00:30:40bagawkBet you did not know that :)
00:31:11amiconnmarkun: (1) The archos jukeboxes are 32 bit. (2) using utf-32 will most probably break the max binary size, plus eat up too much precious ram
00:32:48markunamiconn: I don't want to use UTF-32 for everything. Just for passing strings to lcd_puts e.g.
00:33:38amiconnYes, but what about the many string constants?
00:33:48markunUTF-8
00:33:57bagawkbye
00:34:04 Quit bagawk ("Leaving")
00:34:10amiconnThese have to be converted before passing them to lcd_puts() etc anyway.
00:34:48*HCl yawns and goes to sleep
00:35:03amiconnOr we may use a "decoded string cache", but that adds complexity..
00:35:03markunHCl: see you around on campus!

00:36:13quelsaruk*grins*
00:36:14quelsarukbye
00:36:32amiconnmarkun: I think decoding UTF-8 can be made rather fast. The biggest challenge is the font handling
00:38:50markunYes, fonts can get very big. Do you know the fixed-size bdf fonts that come with x11?
00:39:16amiconnno
00:41:09markunThey are public domain and contain a lot of glyphs.
00:42:29markunI will have another look at the chinese patch how they do the dynamic loading and unloading of font parts.
00:43:27amiconnI think this needs something like an lru cache.
00:45:05markunYes, a good idea.
00:47:56markunI'll sleep over it..
00:48:26amiconnI think the ascii chars should be preloaded (or perhaps not even part of the caching strategy, but be "sticky")
00:49:25markunI agree, but even if the were part of it they wouldn't be swapped out because the are used so often I think.
00:49:47amiconnThis would ensure 2 things: (1) No additional disk accesses as long as no special char needs to be displayed. (2) Rockbox could always display messages even if the font file becomes inaccessible
00:52:10 Join bagawk [0] (~Lee@bagawk.user)
00:52:43quelsaruktime to sleep, cu
00:52:53markunI want to store the glyphs seperate (not in one big 'bits') because now all the unused places are allocated anyway (and filled up with the default char)
00:53:29amiconnPlus, unicode handling needs to be added in a backwards-compatible way, ensuring that rockbox can still be built without it.
00:53:55amiconnThere is the player, which will never be able to display unicode...
00:54:16markunI know. Can it display rocklatin?

00:55:19amiconnThe player lcd is charcell based, but there are 4 (old lcd) or 8 (new lcd) characters that can be redefined.
00:56:50bagawkDoes anyone here know how to mount a squashfs image within cygwin
00:56:55markunThat's not much. So cyrillic is not possible with the player?
00:57:12amiconnbagawk: not me.
00:57:15bagawkI done feel like patching my kernel and building (takes 1 1/2 hours on my machine :()
00:57:40amiconnmarkun: Unfortunately not, imho.
00:58:46amiconnThe player font code uses some sophisticated code to make sure the important characters are displayed correctly, replacing less important chars with similar ones from the rom.
00:59:41amiconnThat is, if an "ä" is to be displayed, and there are free redefinable chars, it displays an "ä", but if all slots are taken for more important things, it shows an "a" instead.
01:00
01:00:05markunok, that's what I thought.
01:00:51markunWell, it's the best you can do with such limited hardware.

22:50:48Myr-hi ;)
22:51:29thecrecarcanyways, i just wanted to show the site and go cheer the gmini tema on.... and hopefully is i have money left after buying my gmini i will donate it :)
22:52:00Myr-just wanted to ask here before I use the mailinglist. I have a question about digital out. Is there a way to have rockbox shut down the digital output between tracks?
22:52:49Myr-I remember somebody filed that behavior as a bug a long time ago, but i could use it.
22:57:18 Part thecrecarc
23:00
23:02:13Myr-hmm. the reason I would appreciate to have that feature is copying files from rockbox to minidisc. The minidisc-deck can detect such short shutdown as automatic track splits.
