#rockbox log for 2005-06-03

00:00:43HClsoon we'll have a database generator that can read ogg
00:00:47HClbut its in java :x
00:00:55Bagdergah
00:00:57amiconnLinusN: I get a feeling that this is the cause for so many broken recordings with my older, asm-optimised recording transfer
00:01:12Chamoislinus : i have md5 ffdf317356cc0a964a2708d6b90f59cb
00:01:23Chamoiswith 1.65Eu and bootloader 2 is it ok ?
00:01:25amiconnNow that I have it asm optimised again, I also get broken recordings again...
00:01:28Bagderlucky me, I don't have any oggs
00:01:38preglowi have only oggs ://///
00:01:39jochenhey, oggs are cool!
00:01:51Bagderperhaps, but java is not
00:01:56preglowword
00:02:02LinusNamiconn: congrats...not!
00:02:02*amiconn has 99.9% mp3s and 0.1% oggs
00:02:04jochenat least vorbis supports gapless
00:02:19preglowso does (some) mp3s
00:02:23Bagdermp3 "supports" that too
00:02:28pregloweveryone with a brain uses lame anyway
00:03:03jochenwell, but it wasn't meant to support gapless because of the frame-based structure.
00:03:09preglowno
00:03:15preglowvorbis too uses frames, you know
00:03:19pregloweverthing uses frames
00:03:27Bagderframes R us
00:03:45preglowit doesn't support gapless because the exact original track length is usually not saved anywhere
00:03:47jochenwell, you know what i mean. *g*
00:03:51tucozpreglow, the high pitched sound is like a faint beep (like on a hearing examination)
00:04:02preglowtucoz: i usually didn't hear those beeps :P
00:04:20Stryke`fwpather.exe won't seem to patch 1.65-US
00:04:29LinusNChamois: yes
00:04:37LinusNStryke`: i am an idiot
00:04:46Stryke`lol
00:05:03tucozI have a pair of sennheiser px200, and they seem to be very sensitive to stuff like that
00:05:15preglowperhapzs
00:05:20preglowdoes the iriver fw do this?
00:05:26tucozno
00:05:35jochensry, can't ack that LinusN ;-)
00:05:59XavierGrokay now I have to port another plug-in for the iriver, maybe i will give snake or snake2 a try...
00:06:08preglowtucoz: can you record it somehow?
00:06:10XavierGrany suggestions?
00:06:32tucozBut, i don't know if the iriver or the headphones do this, but when I pass those security things (!) in stores I also hear a faint beep
00:06:38tucozhmm, can try
00:06:53Stryke`tucoz: i hear that as well (the security things)
00:07:13preglowtucoz: that's fairly normal, but i don't think this is electromagnetic interference
00:07:22tucozpreglow, in rockbox?
00:07:33preglowno, i mean the security things
00:07:43tucozthe sound I'm experiencing?
00:07:49preglowyes, that's normal
00:07:51preglowbut not from rockbox
00:07:58preglowfrom security things ;)
00:08:15tucozok
00:08:40tucozhmm, never recorded anything in linux. Will look around for a bit
00:08:44preglowi've got a set of great big headphones with a long wire, so i always hear it as well
00:08:52tucozat stores?
00:08:55preglowyea
00:09:05jochentucoz: take a look at audacity
00:09:06tucozok, so is that the wire causing it?
00:09:27amiconnIt seems that rockbox doesn't correctly initialise something on iriver (UDA?)
00:09:30preglowcombination of wire and headphone impedance
00:09:33tucozok
00:09:53tucoznice to know. Not much of a electronics-knowing person
00:10:08preglowamiconn: well, we've got people complaining rockbox sometimes refuses to play sound after booting
00:10:09amiconnThere is a strong 'pop' when I plug or unplug my earphines when rockbox is running
00:10:18amiconn*earphones
00:10:19preglowehh?
00:10:24preglowsounds like a dc offset
00:10:32amiconnThat doesn't happen with the iriver fw, even at max. volume
00:10:49preglowbut that should never happen
00:11:19tucozI also hear when the harddrive spins up
00:11:31tucozIn my headphones that is
00:11:57amiconntucoz: Possibly caused by the dc offset problem... then you'll hear the power ripple caused by the hd
00:12:43tucozamiconn: in plain english? ;)
00:12:46preglowi thought most output drivers were dc coupled
00:13:00tucozdc like in direct current = battery?
00:13:45jochengtg, gn8
00:14:15 Quit jochen ("Verlassend")
00:14:37amiconntucoz: yes
00:15:02tucozand something is wrong with that? A hw error?
00:15:22amiconnI just measured it: Rockbox outputs +1.1 V at the left channel, and +0.3 V at the right channel
00:15:32preglowbut how?
00:15:43amiconnWith iriver firmware it's perfect zero (<0.01 V)
00:15:52amiconn(measured without load)
00:15:55LinusNcan someone help me, i don't have the korean ihp_120.hex files
00:16:10preglowLinusN: and the site doesn't work?
00:16:21LinusNthe zip files contain windows executables
00:16:21amiconn...and it's independent whether it's fed through the remote or not
00:16:29preglowLinusN: ahhh
00:16:46preglowhave you tried unzipping them?
00:16:52LinusNyes
00:16:52preglowthey might be sfx executables
00:16:55preglowaight
00:17:00markunLinusN: Wine?
00:17:07amiconnLinusN: sec...
00:17:26LinusNmarkun: sure, but i don't want to install wine just now
00:19:13LinusNok i have 1.65k now
00:19:31LinusNanybody has 1.63k?
00:20:02preglowamiconn: does your meter support picking up the dc component in an audio signal as well? would be fun to see if it's there all the time
00:20:52preglowmine just goes wild
00:20:59preglowi guess it doesn't filter it first
00:22:20Stryke`LinusN: i'm uploading 1.63K now if you still need it to my ftp
00:22:30Chamoistoo late
00:22:40Chamoisi gave it few sec
00:22:51Stryke`ok
00:22:57amiconnpreglow: I didn't apply the audio patch
00:24:23preglowi keep forgetting not everyone has it
00:24:26tucozpreglow, didn't show anything when I recorded.
00:24:43preglowtucoz: tried normalizing it?
00:24:53tucozit's just a flat line
00:25:04preglowthe signal is probably too weak for you to see it
00:25:06preglowbut i bet it's there
00:25:25amiconnpreglow: Do you also get the dc offset (with silence)?
00:25:25tucozok, I zoomed in in audacity
00:25:51 Quit RED_M_CHIU (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
00:26:58preglowamiconn: haven't got an extension jack cable, and it's pretty hard to fit the probes in the hole...
00:27:22preglowtucoz: do normalize in audacity
00:27:23amiconnSuch a cable was part of the accessory...
00:27:30preglowamiconn: i know! can't find it
00:28:35tucozpreglow, where do I find that?
00:29:20preglowtucoz: effect->normalize
00:29:26 Join leftright [0] (~5087cc8a@labb.contactor.se)
00:29:39tucozfound it, thanks anyway
00:30:09preglowtucoz: do you hear/see it now?
00:31:01tucozargh, don't know. I will try to record it again. Some program I run has 'stolen' the audio device
00:32:20 Join ashridah [0] (ashridah@220-253-120-226.VIC.netspace.net.au)
00:34:23tucozpreglow, I guess I didn't record anything. I hear the iriver, but audacity don't record it
00:34:32preglownot much i can do then, heh
00:34:33amiconnLinusN: Any objections against changing the LED defines
00:34:34tucoznow playing song
00:35:33amiconnI'd change that to a multi-value setting. CONFIG_LED { LED_PHYSICAL, LED_VIRTUAL, or undefined }
00:35:58amiconnLED_PHYSICAL would be for a software-controlled LED (archos player /recorder)
00:36:07amiconnLED_VIRTUAL is for Ondio
00:36:27amiconnFor iriver it would be undefined as it has a hardware controlled LED
00:36:53amiconnThat would get rid of the MMC icon on iriver
00:37:22LinusNfwpatcher should work better now
00:37:33amiconn?
00:37:38LinusNamiconn: fone with me
00:37:40LinusNfine
00:37:54preglowiriver has mmc icon?
00:37:54preglowhaha
00:38:09amiconnIt has... currently
00:38:17preglowhow... misplaced...
00:38:29amiconnThe little icon that pops up in the to right corner on hd access
00:39:14MoosCamaroLinusN: yes, work fine now

00:42:12 Quit _aLF ("Leaving")
00:45:36tucozpreglow: if you would like, you can have a look at it at http://www.ii.uib.no/~martina/
00:46:55preglowthis happens when?
00:47:10tucozwhen I enter a directory for instance
00:47:22CoCoLUShm
00:47:25tucozlike, when the dir contents are loaded to memory
00:47:26CoCoLUSoriginal firmware -did- the same
00:47:34CoCoLUSthey fixed that, though
00:47:37tucoznot when I return to a dir
00:47:42preglowso it's disk interference
00:47:54tucozok, my player or?
00:48:06tucozsomething wrong with it that is?
00:48:33preglowthe left channel's got massive interference
00:48:43preglowi'll try this on my player
00:48:58tucozit doesn't happen all the time though.
00:49:07XavierGrgood night all!
00:49:35preglowdoesn't happen at all here
00:49:58tucoznever?
00:50:08preglowcan't say i've ever heard it
00:50:22 Quit XavierGr ()
00:50:42tucozI haven't either using iriver fw
00:51:20CoCoLUSi have
00:52:06tucozNow I rebooted to iriver fw, shut down, and booted rockbox. Then it's completly silent

00:52:30 Join TCK [0] (TCK@81-86-100-186.dsl.pipex.com)
00:58:20tucozok, got to go. But, there could be an idea to collect stuff like this on a wikipage.
01:00
01:00:02hacimanyone have a good source for purchasing hardware? Ebay is not my favorite method, but thats the only place I know of to go to.
01:00:31tucozthen again, as the iriver rockbox still is in early-mid development, I guess bug reports will be as for the archoses.
01:00:49 Part tucoz
01:04:46preglowwell, what better sources are there?
01:04:51preglowit's all second-hand anyway

01:09:39 Quit TCK- (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
01:10:46HClhrm.
01:11:09HCli suppose a lot of people would mind if i upgraded the database to include some more fields, rendering the perl version not usable?
01:11:26HClits just that its really easy to get playtime into place with the java one :/
01:11:38HCland i need that one in the database soon...
01:12:29preglowthen do that in a local copy
01:12:31amiconnNo java please
01:12:41HClwhat should i do then?
01:12:47preglowdestroying the only means people have of updating their database is not clever
01:13:07HClwell, i could adapt the perl version to fill in 0 for the songlength
01:13:14HClwould still make it work, but limit it.
01:13:48preglowthat would of course work, but anyway, requiring java will destroy the flexibility people have now
01:13:54preglowwhat with just having perl.exe on their player
01:14:05HCli know that.
01:14:14preglowi don't exactly LOVE that solution myself
01:14:16HCli leave it open for someone to update the perl variant..
01:14:19preglowbut it does work
01:14:39HCli agree that it limits things a bit
01:14:48HCli'm hoping to find a java to .net compiler somewhere
01:14:57HCl.net would probably be more useful
01:15:08HClsince it creates a .exe
01:15:17preglowand requires .net to be isntalled
01:15:18HClthat you can run under linux too, with mono
01:15:25HClanyways
01:15:32HCli'll just make the songdb write in not availables
01:15:34HClfor all stuff added
01:15:35preglowc would by far be nicest :P
01:15:37HClso it will still work.
01:15:41HClnot for me, the coder
01:15:42HCl :)
01:15:43thegeekfewer people have mono than java
01:15:50HClthegeek: maybe
01:15:53preglowno, but the coder isn't the one who's supposed to be having an easy time
01:15:59HCl :P
01:16:04HClscrew that. anyways :P
01:16:10thegeekI'm pretty sure very few actually have mono installed
01:16:19HCli agree with that
01:18:15***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
01:19:28thegeekis it absolutely impossible to do it in perl?
01:19:50HClnot impossible, but it will be unmaintainable.
01:20:09preglowwhy?
01:20:15HClits already totally unreadable
01:20:16preglowperl isn't unmaintainable by default
01:20:22preglowthen fix it
01:20:30pregloweverything doesn't have to be in one file
01:20:31HCli don't know perl.
01:20:33preglowfor one
01:20:44HClplus i'm | | this close to a working java solution
01:20:49HClthat will also be able to work the runtime databas
01:20:50HCle
01:20:54HClwithout a sweat
01:21:03HClbeing able to read the old database in and adapt it
01:23:08preglowdoes gcj create standalone java executables?
01:23:19preglowthat might be sort of redeeming
01:23:29HCli think it does.
01:26:53preglowlooks like it can
01:27:35HClhmm..
01:28:17HCli'm starting to get very confused
01:28:22HClwhere is my old songdb.pl?
01:28:28HCli'm trying to check it out from cvs
01:28:31HCland i'm getting an old version

02:25:58HClask, ask
02:26:05Stryke`when updating the rockbox build over usb, its perfectly okay to load up the rockbox firmware
02:26:34Stryke`it will let you overwrite rockbox.iriver and .rockbox
02:27:09Stryke`the first time i did it i booted the original firmware

07:13:13LinusNhehe, oops
07:14:18amiconnThis is in fact crucial; if someone accidentally reformats an Ondio with FAT32 _and_ also has an old firmware release, the Ondio will be bricked...
07:14:40amiconnOnly rescue would be uart boot + reflash

10:57:06Mirflehi
10:59:26Mirflei've been following this project for awhile, I had a jbrfm for a couple months but then it broke so I got an Iriver, and now I can use your great firmware again :)
10:59:57Mirflehowever, it seems there is a bug with the remote:
10:59:59preglowcrwl: ahahahah
11:00
11:00:21crwlpreglow, what.
11:00:35preglowcrwl: misread, i mean:
11:00:39preglowniobos: hahahahah
11:00:42crwl:P
11:00:52Mirfleif the main player is on hold, and you try to turn in the player with the remote (not on hold)
11:01:18Mirfleyou get a "hold" message, and the player shuts off
11:01:48LinusNMirfle: does that happen even if you hold the remote ON key a little longer?
11:01:58Mirfle*turn on
11:02:10Mirfleahhh, no.
11:02:17ashridahLinusN: i've been getting that one occasionally, when trying to start the original firmware from the remote as well.
11:02:22Mirflewhat's the difference?
11:02:32ashridahdoesn't seem to matter if i hold down record or on or what
11:02:35LinusNashridah: even with the latest boot?
11:03:14Mirflei just flashed the latest bootloader
11:03:39ashridahLinusN: i *think* i've gotten it with the most recent version
11:03:46ashridahi'm not sure. i'll keep an eye out
11:04:15LinusNthe problem is probably that the bootloader is configured to run the original firmware when it is started with the remote
11:04:17ashridahi mean iriver's firmware thinks the unit is on hold, btw, not rockbox's bootloader
11:04:59LinusNand it takes a while to reboot to the original
11:05:21LinusNand you have time to release the remote on button during that time
11:05:57LinusNso when the original firmware starts, it doesn't see the remote ON key anymore, thinking you started with the main ON key
11:06:22ashridahah
11:08:18Mirfleahh
11:08:26LinusNthat's unfortunately nothing we can fix
11:08:50ashridahheh. it's livable until rockbox becomes the only thing i want to start :)
11:08:51LinusNwhen rockbox matures, we will remove the start-original-with-remote feature

11:38:03HCllet me finish up and try to make a proper .jar out of it.
11:41:10tvelocityjava?
11:41:12tvelocityouch
11:41:19*tvelocity is alergic to java
11:41:22ashridahwhat's wrong with java?
11:42:06niobosit's slow...
11:42:28ashridahwhat're you trying to do with it that you consider slow?
11:42:39HCli haven't run a benchmark yet. but as long as you don't use the java graphical interface, its quite fast
11:42:41tvelocityjava is REALLY slow... even on modern mashines...
11:43:04preglowjava isn't THAT slow
11:43:09preglowlike hcl says, the gui part is slow
11:43:14tvelocityand it's not as portable as sun is trying to convince people that it is
11:43:15niobosa friend was planning to make a EXIF-library in it, to extract jpeg-info, and it was soooo slow...
11:43:32nioboswell, exif lib + interface, actualy
11:43:48ashridahtvelocity: nothing new there, but then, it does a crapload better than a majority of things.
11:43:49tvelocityjava's portability actually SUCKS
11:43:52preglowmono is faster than java now, they say
11:44:12tvelocityi'll have to agree with them
11:45:30ashridahnow, i'll grant you that Swing is the arse end of computing.
11:45:35HClokay
11:45:41ashridahbut there's stuff you can use instead which mitigates that.
11:45:43HClashridah: i got a .jar for you..
11:45:48HClhold on..
11:46:28HCli know the .jar is pretty big, but thats only cause of my ogg/mp3 tag reading backend
11:46:37HCli'll strip it someday.
11:46:39ashridahhow big are we talking here?
11:46:49HCl260kb
11:46:58ashridahah. that's not really all that big :)

11:48:21ashridahhrm, no manifest with the class name set in it?
11:48:24ashridahtsk tsk
11:48:31HClit does support strip, add, dirisalbum, dirisalbumname, but the commandline interface doesn't handle options yet
11:48:35HClso its hardcoded at the moment
11:48:40HClhehe. i don't know how to do manifest yet ;p
11:49:03HClits set to create a v2 database at the moment
11:49:11HCli'm really pleased with java using big endian as default
11:49:35preglowinternally as well?
11:49:40HClit also tried to output song names in unicode, but i turned that off ;p

12:38:18HClwere ioexceptions while trying to read a tag.
12:38:31HClbit odd, i didn't really expect that to happen
12:40:15HClokay, reget it off my ftp
12:40:20HClit should poop out proper error handling now
12:40:24HClbut you'll probably get flooded more
12:40:37HClcause now it prints a stacktrace for every one of those

12:43:16BgerHCl URL ?
12:43:33HClftp://titania.student.utwente.nl/SongDB.jar
12:44:09Bgerhow to run it ?

12:46:24HClmm..
12:46:27ashridahdon't just toss away the file descriptor, close it, THEN toss it away
12:46:30HClyea :P
12:46:41ashridahyou'll find often stuff doesn't get flushed to disk if you forget to close it
12:46:41HClits supposed to do that
12:46:44HClits a bug in my backend
12:46:46ashridah(when writing, anyway)
12:47:07niobosshouldn't tho oh-so-wonderful java-garbagde-collecotr destroy the object and close the file himself???
12:47:50niobosok, drop the "oh-so-wonderfull"
12:48:23ashridahniobos: there's no garuntee in any part of java that the destructor will run
12:48:39ashridahclosing files yourself is a) good manners and b) smart programming.
12:48:50niobosI know...
12:49:06niobosbut it would be nice to catch this in the garbadge collecotr...
12:49:07ashridahbecause even if the garbage collector kicks in properly, there's still a filesystem limit, and you might beat the garbage collector to the punch

12:50:33ashridahi don't see how closing the file is the garbage collector's job. as i say, garbage collection isn't necessarily going to kick in.
12:51:15niobosok, I agree
12:51:30HClyea, and its my backend not closing the file..

12:59:24Bgerthe example in the link i mean

13:05:36Bgerhahaha
13:05:42HCl :p
13:05:57HClsorry, should've tested it myself
13:06:04preglowwould anyone care massively if the module were taken out of songdb.pl?
13:06:05rasherpreglow: well doing it in C would eliminate the dependency oon perl, which isn't that great for windows users
13:06:05HClapparently the backend wants a buffered inputstream
13:06:19*ashridah urinates on perl
13:06:21preglowpasting all the modules into one file is not very maintainable
13:06:30ashridahthe sad part is, perl's so masochistic, it likes it
13:06:31preglowrasher: doing it in c would also be a major bother :P
13:07:04preglowrasher: but of course, if it were written carefully in c, we could also use the same code for generating the db on the player
13:07:20rashernow that's good thinking
13:07:26Bgerreally good. ..
13:07:37HCloh for crying out loud.
13:07:45preglowit wouldn't be THAT much of a bother, really, but we'd need good libs
13:07:47HCli don't like my backend o.o
13:08:48*HCl scratches his head.
13:09:00preglowoh pretty, pretty please
13:09:04HClwell. i think this error is semi-okish, and just caused by a not proper mp3
13:09:05preglowsomeone make a good audio editor for linux

13:12:55preglowthen hooray
13:12:58HClit shouldn't be hard to port it to C, as long as someone can provide me with a tag reading backend
13:13:13preglowwhy do you call it a backend? it's a tag reading library you want :>

14:31:34HClmental note; get a decent sort algorhythm, instead of putting it in a treeset
14:32:11ashridahi agree
14:33:57HClthe set property is throwing out "duplicates" which are equal according to the comparator, which defines the way it sorts

14:57:30webguest94Can anyone confir/deny: I'm upgrading HDD on recorder10 to 40mb
14:58:12webguest94I formatted fat32 on w98, then copy all files to new hd from old hd. Anything else?
14:59:33LinusNsounds about right, provided you partitioned it correctly
15:00
15:00:23webguest94? iI just made one big fat32
15:00:43ashridahHCl: seems to work now
15:00:46HClgreat!
15:00:52HClpheew
15:00:58HCli was stressing there for a bit
15:01:09HClcan you look around everything see if there are any bugs left?
15:01:12HClany glitches
15:01:32HCli'm never using a treeset for sorting again ;p
15:01:42HClit was removing "duplicates"
15:02:04ashridahwell. no. since i just made the mistake of selecting a song in the Songs list
15:02:12ashridahand now the hard drive is grinding non-stop
15:02:17HCl :x
15:02:30ashridahhm. no. drive stopped. player's still hung tho
15:02:34LinusNwebguest94: does your hd have a partition table with one primary FAT32 partition?
15:03:18webguest94yes, exactly
15:03:35LinusNwebguest94: that should be it
15:03:42LinusNis there a problem?
15:04:30 Part LinusN
15:05:02webguest94don't know yet, I'm still copying mp3s off of cdroms to take advantage of the faster xfer speed while it's on the ide adapter. The recorder I have is only USB1.1
15:05:13ashridahHCl: yeah. trying to play a song definently doesn't work that well :)
15:05:16ashridahbut the list seems to look okay
15:05:22HClok :)
15:05:23ashridahgeneration seems to take a fair whack less time too
15:05:30HClit does?
15:05:32HClcompared to perl?
15:05:37HClor?
15:05:45HClwait o.o perl didn't do ogg.
15:05:48HClwhat? o.o
15:05:52ashridahcompared to earlier versions :)
15:05:57HCloh.
15:06:02HCli wouldn't know, i didn't change that much

15:06:32ashridah(of course, i foolishly don't have a copy of an older version)
15:07:14ashridahbut anyway, my collection has 2054 files, of mp3 and ogg
15:07:19HClnot bad
15:07:30HCllet me try to run it on my iriver
15:07:37HCli don't have ogg
15:07:37HClbut
15:07:42HClit should fix all the bugs of the old songdb
15:08:11ashridahit definently displays entries for oggs
15:08:20ashridahof course, still tosses exceptions for the files that don't have tags
15:08:24HClyea

15:28:50HClno idea. the java default one.
15:28:54HClits not the sorting thats slow
15:29:04HClit just. almost skipped through the sorting as if it didn't sort
15:29:08HClmaybe it didn't.

15:33:22HClno idea why it didn't before, but i rewrote it and it should be faster too.
15:33:42HCllet me upload it
15:33:53bobTHCyou use the tuboBM sorter ?
15:33:57HClno.
15:34:00HCljust the java default one
15:34:03HCland its taking near 0 time
15:34:06bobTHCbubble
15:34:07HClso its more than fast enough
15:34:14HClthe default java one is *not* bubble :P
15:34:23HClits probably mergesort or something like that
15:34:29bobTHCoki
15:34:37ashridahyeah, bubble sort doesn't scale too well :)
15:34:44niobosquicksort?
15:34:51HClmergesort is better than quicksort
15:35:05niobosdonno... I learned in school that quicksort was the quickest...
15:35:07HClashridah: can you give the current one a try?
15:35:09bobTHCbut the best is Turbo BM
15:35:13niobosdidn't learn mergesort...
15:35:16HClniobos: yea, but then mergesort came along :)
15:35:21HClmergesort is very much like quicksort
15:35:27HClonly, rather than choosing a random pivot point
15:35:30HClyou choose the middle
15:35:39HClso it has an average complexity of n*log(n)
15:35:42niobosmiddle element? or middle value?
15:36:12HClquicksort takes an element, and splits the list into elements that are lower than that element and higher than that element
15:36:15ashridahyeah. you keep merging with larger and larger chunks
15:36:21HClit has an average complexity of n*log(n)
15:36:27HClbut a worst case complexity of n^2
15:36:37HClmergesort has both average and worst case n*log(n)

16:00:39HCl :P
16:00:50preglownow THATS clarity
16:00:59preglowjust because fucking sun doesn't like operator overloading
16:01:14HClwell
16:01:22HClcompareTo is actually a function that returns -1, 0 or 1
16:01:29HClso it wouldn't be an operator anyways
16:01:32preglowno?
16:01:34preglowwhy not?
16:01:45preglowcould have made the operator return those as well
16:01:51preglow:-)
16:01:57HClbecause it returns a value saying its less, equal, or greater
16:01:58HClanyways
16:02:14HClall thats left is adding an commandline interface for the options
16:02:22 Quit webguest94 ("CGI:IRC (Ping timeout)")
16:02:23preglowno matter, i still hate java for not having operator overloading
16:02:24HCland then i can move on to extending it
16:06:02Bgerpreglow, yes, that's silly
16:06:25preglowespecially when they claim not having it helps readability....
16:06:37Bgerhaha
16:06:44preglowMatrix lol1 = lol2.Mult(lol3); is a lot clearer than Matrix lol1 = lol2*lol3; surely
16:07:37HCli dunno.
16:07:50HClcoming from the java corner, i'd prefer the first
16:07:55HClcause it shows that a function is getting called
16:07:59HCland its not a small operation
16:08:10Bgerhah
16:08:20Bgerbut that's one of OO's advantages ...
16:08:27Bagdercoming from a corner "don't hide what's happening", I prefer the first one too
16:08:43HClBagder: yea, that was the idea behind not having operator overloading in java
16:08:44BgerBagder i don't think that it's hidden ...
16:08:47Bagderbut then I dislike most OO stuff that hides
16:08:58preglowunless you're braindead, you know something's happening there
16:09:06Bagderin fact, OO is pretty much made to hide where things happen
16:09:09Bagder:-)
16:09:12Bgerit's obvious that it's not normal multiplication
16:09:19BgerBagder that's what i mean...
16:09:46niobosOO is made to make it easyer... if I want to multiply 2 things I use *; I don't care HOW that multiplication is done, just DO it
16:09:49Bgerif you don't like hiding things, you don't like and OO
16:10:11preglowhaving to spell out in bloody detail everything you do is why i hate languages like python
16:10:31preglownothing is hidden, alright, but it makes me want to kill myself

16:31:59tvelocity:(
16:32:24tvelocityspeaking of games, is anyone playing WoW?
16:32:31ashridahpity i've got to crash now
16:32:32 Quit ashridah ("sleep")
16:32:48HClflatmate of me plays it
16:33:40tvelocityit rulez, but it's a real time burner...
16:33:56HClhehe.
16:34:04HClultima online is probably worse
16:34:09tvelocityi left designing of my LUG website when i started it
16:34:12HClhaving to water the plants you own every day
16:34:22tvelocityomg:)
16:34:49HClWoW is nice, but i'm still waiting for a game to have the flexibility and possibilities of ultima online
16:35:03HClwith better graphics
16:35:09HClcause ultima online is 7 years old by now :/
16:35:15tvelocityi don't care about graphics
16:35:21HClthen you should try uo, heh.
16:35:30HClit gives loads more freedom than wow
16:35:35HCland its free-ish
16:35:38tvelocityreally?i thought it doesdnt exist a
16:35:42tvelocityanymore
16:35:46HClit does.
16:35:53tvelocitynice
16:35:57HCla new update got out last november
16:36:08thegeekHCl
16:36:09tvelocitybut i'm allready hooked on wow
16:36:12thegeekGuild Wars
16:36:23thegeekit's very nice
16:36:29thegeekbest game I've ever played so far
16:36:37thegeekand the only one to keep my attention for more than 2 weeks
16:36:38tvelocityfrom what i've heard, GW is not really a RPG
16:36:44thegeekwrong
16:36:57thegeekwhy do you think that?
16:37:17thegeekthere are so many people leaving wow and joining gw these days
16:37:25thegeekit really is a bit better
16:37:34HClwow graphics are great though
16:37:37tvelocitywell i havent seen it, but i've heard that combat is more action-like
16:37:40HClwish uo had that
16:37:48thegeektvelocity : that is true
16:37:56thegeekbut it is still very much a rpg
16:38:00thegeekmhm
16:38:07thegeekis that "an rpg"
16:38:10thegeekor "a rpg"
16:38:14thegeekI figured "a"
16:38:17XavierGris WoW an rpg?
16:38:20thegeeksince rpg = role playing game
16:38:20tvelocitywell, i dont give the title RPG easily to a game
16:38:27thegeekrole playing game
16:38:41thegeekI'd say that covers both wow and gw
16:38:44tvelocityi think WoW BARELY is allowed to be called a RPG
16:38:48thegeekwhat?
16:38:50thegeekwhy?
16:39:01tvelocitywell, it's played on a computer
16:39:08tvelocitythat's enough
16:39:12thegeek~-.
16:39:14thegeekthat's lame
16:39:28XavierGrI had a fried that said to me that Diablo 2 was concidered an rpg I laughed at him
16:39:29tvelocitycomputer RPGs are not really RPGs
16:39:38tvelocitydiablo an RPG? LOL!
16:39:38thegeekthe medium in which the game is presented should not matter imho
16:39:41XavierGrI dont think that Diablo2 can be called an rpg
16:39:48thegeekI agree that d2 is perhaps on the border of an rpg
16:39:52tvelocitythegeek, ir's not a matter of medium
16:39:56thegeekbut gw is much more advanced than d2
16:40:03thegeekI see your point
16:40:08tvelocityif diablo is anRPG
16:40:15tvelocitythen pokemon is an RPG too...
16:40:19XavierGrlol
16:40:20thegeekI agree that it barely is
16:40:27tvelocityactually pokemon is a lot more RPG like than diablo
16:40:29thegeekand I do understand what your are saying
16:40:39tvelocityit has a lot more RP elements than diablo
16:40:42XavierGrI havent seen WoW so I cant really say if it is or not
16:40:54thegeekdiable is hack'n'slash
16:41:04thegeekwith a few rpg parts thrown in
16:41:07XavierGrI agree
16:41:22tvelocitythat's what video gamers say
16:41:29tvelocitybut RP-gamers dissagry
16:41:31thegeekold school rpg-ing is ofcourse not compareable to anything played on a computer
16:41:44XavierGrBut it is the same friend that now plays WoW and he is whining that WoW is so rpg.
16:41:57HCllol.
16:42:00HClfrom what i saw
16:42:01thegeekimho it is;)
16:42:04HClWoW is mostly fighting
16:42:04tvelocitywell WoW is just RPG like...
16:42:13thegeekbut it's not the same as an real life rpg
16:42:19tvelocitya computer RPG really can't be a rpg
16:42:27thegeekwell
16:42:30thegeekat this point
16:42:40tvelocitya computer can;t generate a realistic role playing expierience
16:42:42thegeekwhat we disagree on is just what "rpg" should apply to
16:42:49thegeekno point in discussing that any further imho
16:42:50tvelocityindeed
16:42:56tvelocityyou're right
16:42:57thegeekit's just a difference of opinion
16:43:04XavierGrwell FF series I think are rpg (classic ones)
16:43:25tvelocityit's really a personal matter, since there is no exact definition of RPG
16:43:49XavierGrso what internet says? Is WoW entitled RPG or not?
16:43:58XavierGrBecause Diablo was an action-rpg
16:44:35tvelocitythe good thing about WoW is that is has 2 RP servers
16:44:53tvelocitywhere people actually are roleplaying to each other
16:45:11tvelocitythey can't role play with NPC;s, but at least they role play with other people
16:45:32tvelocityso wow at least has *some* role playing involved
16:45:54tvelocitypropably other mmo's have that too
16:47:51XavierGrHooray I managed to compile rockbox alone!!!
16:48:15tvelocitycongrats, u just earned 1600 XP
16:48:34XavierGr;D
16:53:06XavierGrHey this Rockbox Development Kit is unbelievable! The cygwin was way too complicated and big to install.
16:53:33tvelocitywhy don't you just get linux? :P
16:53:49XavierGrThe DevKit has it all for Rockbox development and it is very small. Someone must update the wiki for the starters as me.
16:54:09XavierGroh and thanks those that pointed it out!
16:54:31XavierGrwell I have knoppix installed on my iHP-140! ;P

17:38:23preglowvery goodie
17:38:27HCli got everything ready to implement the runtime database
17:38:35HClwell, a lot, anyways :p
17:39:07HClits almost trivial to add runtime database to the generation o.o..
17:39:12thegeekHCl
17:39:16HClmm?
17:39:18thegeekcheck if your java code compiles using gcc
17:39:21thegeekor
17:39:22HClokay
17:39:24thegeekgcj or whatever it is
17:39:37thegeekI think that would help convince some..;)
17:39:38thegeekhehe
17:39:46HCl ;p
17:40:00HClwell, my primary goal is to get a maintainable tool that will do the job
17:40:01preglowi don't even have gcj
17:40:03preglow:<
17:40:05thegeekhehe
17:40:21thegeekI dont mind java all that much
17:40:28thegeekbut I can see why other don't want it
17:40:38*HCl installs gcj
17:40:39thegeekI run windows on my main desktop so it's not a problem
17:41:08HClsameish
17:42:10thegeekbut I'm not that keen on installing it on my server
17:42:16thegeekI'd do it
17:42:23niobosIf you give me a Java-source, I could port it to C++, given some time and maybe support on non-commented code
17:42:35preglowif you're going to port it to anything, please make it c
17:42:41preglowthen rockbox can use it as well
17:42:47tvelocityC pwnz :)
17:42:48thegeektrue
17:42:51thegeekthat'd be nice
17:42:54HClsure
17:42:56thegeekdoing it on the iriver itself
17:42:56preglowbeing able to regenerate the db from rockbox would be nice
17:42:58nioboshmm, wasn't the point of using Java to get OO-code?
17:43:12preglowthat's just a coding aid for hcl
17:43:16preglownot a point in itself
17:43:22HClyou can do OO in c
17:43:23niobosWell, I'll try C then...
17:43:24HClwith structs
17:43:25preglowwe'd rather it is c for rockbox, it being embedded and all
17:43:42niobosshouldn't be too hard, I guess...
17:43:45HCli'll just pack the .java in with the .jar
17:43:55tvelocityyou can do OO in any language, it's a matter of the language being designed for OOP actually..
17:44:07HClOO in brainfuck...
17:44:08HClmmm
17:44:11HCli think you need at least pointers
17:44:11niobossure, but I don't like to try OO in eg BASIC...
17:44:12HCl ;p
17:44:18tvelocityindeed
17:44:35niobosThe only thing that might be a problem is the tag-reading lib's
17:44:44tvelocitybut there are object systems for C
17:44:47thegeekhehehehe
17:44:50tvelocitylike Gobject
17:44:52nioboswhich might be C++
17:44:53thegeekthat'd be fun HCl
17:45:17thegeekI can't imagine the _true_ brainfuck that would be
17:45:33thegeeknot to mention it would do wonders for maintainability;)
17:45:37HCl :P
17:45:47thegeekbtw
17:46:06thegeekhas anyone got any experience with air shipping from hongkong?
17:46:12thegeekmy package left yesterday
17:46:12HClyes.
17:46:16thegeekhow long would it take?
17:46:16HCli do, actually
17:46:20HClit took 11 days
17:46:21HClfor me
17:46:22thegeekI've only used ground before
17:46:23thegeekok
17:46:31thegeekmy new dac:)
17:46:42HCli got my new battery from hongkong :)
17:46:45thegeekah
17:46:47HCl13 euro including shipping :P
17:46:53thegeekI bought an xbox psu once
17:47:01thegeekI blew up the original
17:47:01thegeekhehe
17:47:02tvelocity13euro?!
17:47:07HCl yes :p
17:47:20tvelocityare they making any profit?:P
17:47:20niobosincluding shipping? what would that be WITHOUT shipping?
17:47:26HCl6 euro
17:47:32HCl :p
17:47:43thegeekwas it not for the long delay in shipping
17:47:52thegeekI would buy a lot more from hongkong
17:48:05HClniobos: latest download has the source in the .jar
17:48:13nioboswhat was the url again?
17:48:20HClftp://titania.student.utwente.nl/SongDB.jar
17:48:44HClalso. the backend is *bloated*
17:48:48HClit could use some stripping :/
17:49:18HCli haven't quite tested this version yet, but it should work great
17:49:23HCli haven't added comments though.
17:49:32preglowi don't take it, what about a tag reading library makes it a backend?
17:49:40preglows/take/get
17:50:09HClsomething that provides core functionality that you depend on yet haven't written = backend o.o
17:50:29preglowmakes...... sense...
17:52:01niobosHCl: is there a plact that I can find some schematics or somthing about the file format?
17:52:15niobosor should your code be sufficient?
17:53:23*niobos should notice that I'm supposed to study for my exams... so the coding might take a while...
17:55:07niobosfor the record: for command-line options: what is your prefered format:
17:55:08HClniobos: there is
17:55:14niobos-a -b -c?
17:55:16HClniobos: on the wiki, DatabaseV2
17:55:21niobos-abc?
17:55:23niobos−−abc?
17:55:25HCl−−abc
17:55:54niobosonly use long options? or also provide -a shorthands for −−append (or whatever)?
17:56:10HClonly long
17:56:15niobosk
17:56:19HCljust the same like the old songdb.pl
17:56:29HClkeep in mind the java version isn't finished yet
17:56:37HCland it still needs stuff added
17:56:39nioboshaven't tried that one...
17:56:57niobosk, but the C version won't be finished today either...
17:56:57HCltitania:/home/hcl/rockbox/rockbox-devel/tools# ./songdb.pl

17:57:11HClyea, just saying that you should keep account of it in your design
17:57:32HClpretty much the only things that are gonna get added is more taginfo stored in the song structure, and reading in an old run/tagdatabase
17:58:10HClthat reminds me.
17:58:20HCli need to get hashing to work before i'm able to read in the old runtime db
17:58:24*HCl prods rasher
17:58:30HClwhat do you got for me?
17:58:57nioboswell, I'll be checking that DBv2 page and see if I have any more questions

18:00
18:00:24HClit'll have to be renamed to database soon, since "v3" is imminent

18:03:13HClto support older versions
18:03:20DomZthanks a lot
18:03:22HClcode should be 1.3 compatible

18:04:15DomZthis is the version i have

18:04:20HCllet me get an older sdk
18:04:24DomZah ok
18:04:47niobosHCl: just to check if I get it right: the album-part contains (per album) a fixed-length array of songs?
18:05:08HClyup
18:05:09niobosso if I have 1 album with 100 songs and another with 1 song, It'll take up 99 0x00000000's?
18:05:14HClyup
18:05:18DomZ:))
18:05:33nioboshmm... seems a bit stupid to me, but it'll be my small brain
18:05:46HClits the only way we can still search quickly through the database
18:05:52niobostrue...
18:06:07nioboswell, my sister's player has another nice DB-structure...
18:06:13SlasheriHmm, about 5 bugs fixed now.. Should be stable soon :)
18:06:16nioboswell, it's not worthy the name DB:
18:06:29niobosit just generates a m3u list for eacht album
18:06:37HClthat won't do ;p
18:06:38DomZthanks a lot Slasheri !
18:06:39niobosand let's the file-system-driver do the "lookup"
18:06:47SlasheriDomZ :)
18:06:53HClhave you looked at the searchengine that works on the database?
18:06:59niobosnot yet
18:07:03HClit can do stuff like
18:07:32HCl(title starts with "Moon" or artist equals "air") and year > 1980
18:07:41HCljust simple m3u playlists won't do ;p
18:07:46niobostrue
18:07:47DomZi think the space is not the problem for H series
18:08:02DomZthe disk space
18:08:12DomZihmo :)
18:08:14niobosno, but it IS a waste of space to have 1000 songs with album "unknown" and loose much space
18:08:25HClyea, largest database i've seen so far is 6mb
18:08:36HClwhich isn't that much compared to 20 or 40 gb
18:08:41niobostrue
18:08:41DomZyes but if this is the faster way
18:09:03niobosk, I agree... let's waste space for speed... it's always a tradeoff
18:09:15DomZ;)
18:10:08niobos(i might check the code first, but I'm lazy): what to do with various-artist-albums?
18:10:11HCli'll just get 1.4.2
18:10:26HClniobos: they should work with current design...
18:10:34HClalbum keys are based on albumname + directory name
18:10:39HClthere's an option to make it directory name only
18:11:03niobosbut the album-entry has a pointer to an artist-entry, which, obviously isn't defined
18:11:10HClyup

18:33:48MoosCamaroHi all
18:33:58HClhello
18:34:31*HCl throws his latest version online
18:34:44DomZcool
18:34:52HClhaven't recompiled with 1.4 yet :/
18:34:57HClit refused to install it, for some reason
18:35:02DomZoki
18:35:03HCli'll look at it again in a bit
18:35:26DomZok no pb ;)
18:35:44HClbut this version has better various artists support, and some code restructurization

18:38:22niobosHCl: is there a reason to reserve 32bits to flag the runtime-db dirty?
18:38:33HClarchos needs 32bit alignment
18:38:54preglowmany things do
18:39:00niobosk, can I make it <31bit reserved><1bit synced> ?
18:39:11HClum, yea, i think so o.o
18:39:16niobosor should it remain DWORD synced?
18:39:23niobosk
18:39:32preglowdoes it matter?
18:39:45niobosnot realy, but it's more extensible in the bit-thing
18:40:09nioboselse you'd have to define sync=1 means this, sync=2 means that, sync=4 means that...

19:36:24HCltry looking for submitting patches or so..
19:36:30Slasheripreglow: i can but it's very difficult and will take at least about 30 minutes to do.. I don't want to do that
19:36:33SlasheriIsmo :)
19:37:22Ismobtw, why the volume must be touched once to get sound out?
19:37:22preglowhehe
19:37:26preglowwps :PP
19:37:30Ismodo you know the reason already?
19:37:35SlasheriIsmo: yep, that's still a bug
19:37:41preglowSlasheri: it only pretends to be seeking, yes?
19:38:04*HCl has never even seen the wps
19:38:06Slasheripreglow: real seeking doen't work yet :)
19:38:16IsmoI also noticed that the volume wraps around at 85 or so
19:38:22preglowwhats the thing beneath the seek bar?
19:38:23preglowa level meter?
19:38:28IsmoI noticed that by accident of course :)
19:38:34SlasheriIsmo: Hmm.. it shouldn't with the new patch
19:38:35preglowIsmo: no longer
19:38:50preglowthat's been fixed ages ago

19:40:28preglowyes indeed
19:40:31preglowagreed completely
19:40:42DomZhumm i have to click on stop 2 times for listen a new music
19:40:49HCllinus wanted to commit it right?

19:41:37preglowdamn, sounds like i've got a couple of bugs going here
19:41:45preglowin the mp3 decoder
19:42:14Slasheripreglow: Hmm, there might be many bugs out there :) What kind of issues?
19:42:25amiconnniobos: http://www.rockbox.org/docs/contributing.html
19:42:27niobosHCl: the counters are unsigned, I asume?
19:42:27preglowi can hear slight distortion
19:42:41Slasheriinteresting..
19:42:47preglowSlasheri: nothing you need to worry about
19:42:52preglowSlasheri: that's probably my fault
19:43:02preglowsince i did the libmad optimising
19:43:11Slasheri=)
19:43:19HClniobos: yes
19:43:23DomZyes i know distortion too
19:43:32DomZarf
19:43:43DomZyes i hear distortion too
19:43:48preglowdo you? i can only hear it on one track
19:44:02preglowsome kind of sample and hold-ish sound on a bassdrum
19:44:03Slasheripreglow: try to reboot and play the same song again. Is there still the distortion?
19:44:09DomZthat depends on the tracks
19:44:26preglowi actually can't hear it any longer
19:44:31SlasheriIf there is, it's probably due to the decoder
19:44:39SlasheriHmm :/
19:44:39preglowyes i can
19:44:42preglowit's very subtle
19:44:45Slasheriah
19:44:47preglowand it's a libmad bug
19:45:02IsmoSlasheri: you've most probably noticed that when you stop a song and start another one you can hear a very short piece of the previous song
19:45:04preglowi heard distortion like this all the time while i debugged libmad
19:45:10Ismolike that the buffer is not cleared
19:45:13preglowit's not
19:45:21SlasheriIsmo: yes, i will fix that soon
19:45:31Ismook :)
19:45:40Ismothis is so nice :)
19:45:44Slasheri:)
19:46:03preglowwhy is there a loud click at the end of the fade out? :P
19:46:41amiconnpreglow: Did you get to measure the dc offset (== did you find a suitable cable?)
19:46:42DomZah i haven't this one :)
19:46:52Slasheripreglow: i think that the wps integration is still not complete and that will cause it

19:47:55Slasheripreglow: Hmm.. Might be. Anyway, the wps (or something) fades the volume out when you press stop and after that the volume is set back to the previous level
19:48:06SlasheriI think there should be fade in too but there is not..
19:48:09preglowahh, so it's the wps doing it
19:48:54preglowthen i can probably turn it off as well :P
19:48:59Slasheriyep
19:48:59webguest34wow... really like to congratulate you slash... I just patched, and it looks awesome!
19:49:02webguest34bye bye iriver firmware :-D
19:49:16amiconnSlasheri: On archos we don't need a fade in because the MAS employs an internal lowpass to avoid pops/ clicks
19:49:20preglowthe odds are even lower of me ever booting that again now, yes
19:49:20Slasheriwebguest34: nice if you liked it :D
19:49:33preglowas a matter of fact, i have sworn i wont :P
19:49:35DomZwhat is the second horizontal bar ?
19:49:41preglowlevel meter, i guess
19:49:43Slasheriamiconn: ah, ok.
19:49:55amiconnIt seems the UDA does not...
19:50:02Slasheriamiconn: it would be still nice to have such a feature
19:50:13preglowi can code up a lowpass in a jiffy
19:50:19SlasheriDomZ: no idea about that
19:50:35amiconnpreglow: I mean a lowpass filter for the volume setting, not for the actual audio
19:50:40preglowamiconn: of course
19:50:42DomZah ? but so who made it ?
19:50:43webguest34I think the second bar is actually a peak meter...
19:50:44preglowamiconn: that would be braindead
19:50:45amiconnThis is in fact trivial
19:51:16webguest34btw, is it just me, or does anyone else notice that the firmware seems to take maybe .5 seconds longer to boot? Not really a complaint, just wondering...
19:51:59DomZhumm haven't notice that
19:52:02preglowme neither
19:52:13preglowand i don't usually sit watching it booting anyway
19:52:21webguest34hmm... maybe it's my weird compile then... I'll try out the CVS edition when that's released
19:52:29preglowbut yeah, this works just fine
19:52:34preglowhasn't crashed/locked once
19:52:56Slasheriwebguest34: That might be true, because pcm driver will start dma to play a short sample of zeros (that will remove dc voltage from the headphone output)
19:53:02DomZyes as you ! :)
19:53:14webguest34ahhh.... that would explain... thanks!
19:53:36preglowso that's where the dc offset comes from
19:55:07HClwhere is linussss :p
19:55:38preglowSlasheri: damn, the boost counter is at 24, i think you've need to call clock down the cpu in places
19:55:46HCllmao!
19:55:51HClwell
19:56:07amiconnAnyone knowing a nice little coldfire disassembler?
19:56:07HClat some point we'll probably won't want to boost for playback but just keep it at 48 mhz or so?
19:56:14HClamiconn: ida pro
19:56:18preglowamiconn: objdump? :>
19:56:31webguest34sorry for so many questions, but is there any way to access the file browser while a song is playing?
19:56:43amiconnNot a big fat package, but something like tools/sh2d, only for coldfire...
19:56:46Slasheripreglow: eventually the boost counter will reset to zero, just watch it for a moment :)
19:56:55Slasheriit will not reset before buffering is done
19:57:28preglowSlasheri: there's still dc on the headphone jack, btw, i can hear it crackling when i connect/disconnect
19:57:38 Quit einhirn ("Miranda IM! Smaller, Faster, Easier. http://miranda-im.org")
19:58:13Slasheripreglow: Hmm, are you sure it's dc and not static voltage?
19:58:27preglowof course not, but it's never there with the iriver firmware
19:58:35preglowstatic also tends to discharge
19:58:36amiconnpreglow: objdump probably won't work on the bare binary, or do I miss something?
19:58:51SlasheriBefore the sort sample at boot, there was substantial crack when headphones was plugged in
19:58:53preglowamiconn: well, it should, somehow, i could never make it though
19:59:02Slasheri*short
19:59:34preglowforget it
19:59:39preglowit's just the same with the iriver now
19:59:45preglowbut after playing a track it's worse, though

20:49:26HClif you look at the top of the patch
20:49:29HClit says where to put the files
20:49:55XavierGryes but is quite brief to understand
20:50:08XavierGrit says codec* libs
20:50:21XavierGrdoes it mean allcodec files to libs

21:00:30HClyou probably didn't install codecs?

21:05:50amiconnRecording issues on archos recorder - it seems I found the 'cpu power eater'
21:05:59HClmmm?
21:06:35XavierGrarchos?after all this time and still you are developing for it eh?
21:06:37XavierGrnice
21:06:59amiconnWhen recording, there is a part of code (turned out it's the peakmeter) which eats almost all cpu power...
21:07:38amiconn...so some operations (like the scan for a free cluster when there is no hint in fsinfo) take much longer than they should
21:07:38webguest67hcl: so now i've got the codec rocks in .rockbox/rocks, but it still doesn't work
21:07:57HClno. you need them in /codecs
21:08:02*XavierGr rushes to listen to Rockbox Playing!!!!
21:08:18webguest67you mean /.rockbox/codecs ?

21:11:07webguest67yea.. mp3 playing
21:11:58XavierGrdo you have one with Slasheri's Patch?
21:12:38webguest67XavierGr: copy build/plugins/codec*.rock to to .rockbox/codecs/
21:15:16XavierGrmpa is mp3?
21:15:31webguest67xavier: yes

22:35:47bg_so do i have to build rockbox myself to put it on my player are are binaries posted somewhere?
22:35:59bg_for iriver that is
22:36:02bg_h140
22:36:05Bagderhttp://www.rockbox.org/daily.shtml
22:36:16bg_thank you sir
22:36:32Bagderand bootloader info here => http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IriverBoot
22:37:20bg_should i just download the latest binary then or is there a stable version out that i should get?
22:37:36Bagderthere's no stable release for iriver
22:37:43Bagderit is in heavy development
22:38:41bg_right, i guess what i meant was stable to the point where it wont just crash upon loading, if its a fresh cvs build which is always a possibility
22:39:24Bagderwe only have releases and daily builds, no in-betweens
22:39:39Bagderand we have no release for iriver
22:39:42HClhowever, most daily builds won't crash upon loading
22:39:56bg_oh
22:40:17bg_gotta upgrade my firmware first i guess, no bootloader for 1.60u
22:40:30Bagdereh, no
22:40:39Bagderyou'll get it done at the same time
22:40:58Bagderinstalling the rockbox bootloader implies installing a iriver firmware too
22:41:22preglowyou need to patch an existing firmware file, might as well get the newest you can find
22:41:26preglowwhich happens to be 1.65
22:41:34bg_yeah, thats what im currently doing
22:41:50Bagderbut there's no need to separately upgrade to that first
22:41:54Bagderthat's what I meant
22:42:12bg_i get it
22:42:22bg_ok, so im patching the ihp_120.hex
22:42:30bg_and then installing it through the iriver firmware
22:42:32Bagderyes
22:42:34bg_got it
22:42:43Bagderthen install the daily build
22:42:51Bagderwhich is a zip to unzip on the disk
22:43:05preglowit's better to do that first
22:43:08Bagdertrue
22:44:22bg_so i downloaded the bootloader, im guessing its not a patch, but an already patched firmware?

22:52:44preglowjust tend to ignore them
22:53:13[IDC]Dragonwill we find immediately what you're looking for?
22:53:13preglowBagder: they also claim the real codec license is gpl compatible
22:53:43BagderI didn't find any such claim, did you?
22:53:48amiconn[IDC]Dragon: I'd just like to know whether it performs as it should
22:53:56preglowBagder: no, but some people claim the claim it :P
22:54:04preglowthey
22:54:07[IDC]Dragonhow long should I record?
22:54:11Bagderpreglow: yeah, I noticed that and tried to find one ;-)
22:54:40amiconnThere might still be that disk-full problem, but since it also happens with current cvs, I'll ignore that for now and look at it later
22:54:51amiconnIt may also be gone with my changes
22:55:04amiconnYou should record for several minutes
22:55:05[IDC]Dragondisk-full problem?
22:55:39preglowBagder: i still think faad is a better codec
22:55:45preglowBagder: though my research is pretty limited
22:55:54amiconnYes, when you are recording and the disk gets full, current cvs _sometimes_ overwrites the beginning of the file with the last minute recorded or so
22:56:17[IDC]Dragonah
22:56:26amiconnObviously it is very unlikely to observe this on the jbr; on the Ondio this might happen much more often
22:56:28Bagderpreglow: I wouldn't know, I've just read the license and discussed that with rasher, and we're pretty convinced it is not gpl compatible
22:56:32[IDC]Dragonyour build has the backlight on all the time
22:56:46amiconnMy build doesn't have backlight control
22:57:10[IDC]Dragonyes, but somehow permanently enabled (port setup, I guess)
22:57:21amiconnShould I make one including it?
22:57:28amiconnI didn't change port setups
22:57:39[IDC]Dragonthat would be nice
22:57:47preglowBagder: then there's even greater reason to just go with faad
22:57:50[IDC]Dragonhmm, it should be off by default
22:58:05Bagderpreglow: indeed
22:58:06[IDC]Dragonit was for the other dailies
22:58:08preglowBagder: besides, i've still not forgiven real for realplayer
22:58:14Bagderhaha
22:58:20[IDC]Dragonbut I haven't tried since a while
22:58:27amiconn[IDC]Dragon: Did you rolo from your build which has backlight control?
22:58:44[IDC]Dragonrolo and back-boot, both
22:59:05preglowthat program surely convinved me real hater mankind and seek our extinction

23:23:21amiconn(1) When the buffer got full, it didn't always flush everything, depending on the ring buffer positions
23:24:18 Join bg_ [0] (~chatzilla@c24.241.230.113.mad.wi.charter.com)
23:24:30amiconn(2) The peakmeter drew so much cpu power that the first write() on fat32 sometimes took so long that the buffer wrapped meanwhile
23:24:49amiconn(when the fsinfo hint was invalid)
23:25:28[IDC]DragonI saw tidbits of the discussion in the logs
23:25:41[IDC]Dragonwhy is peakmeter so busy?
23:25:50 Join xen` [0] (~xen@pla25-1-82-227-196-9.fbx.proxad.net)
23:26:13amiconn(3) The overwriting of the beginning with the last recorded data happened because the mpeg thread reacted to stray save events (after stop)
23:26:48amiconnPeakmeter used to poll in a tight loop, only yield() and peak_meter_peek()
23:27:10amiconnpeak_meter_peek() needs quite some time due to i2c communication
23:27:19[IDC]Dragonwe should do a v2.5 release when this is resolved
23:27:34amiconnI fixed this by only peeking once per redraw, sleeping in the meantime
23:27:48 Join ghode|afk [0] (~dude@host-212-158-232-155.bulldogdsl.com)
23:28:15amiconnIn fact, peeking once per redraw is much better than peeking all the time. We don't increase the chance to miss a peak by doing that
23:28:31[IDC]Dragonyes
23:28:43amiconnThe mas saves the highest peak until it is read
23:29:04[IDC]Dragondoes it really?
23:29:20[IDC]DragonI remember Kurzhaarrocker cursing
23:30:08bg_so i installed the bootloader and iriver files, and when it starts up i just get a blank screen with a little hard drive spinup. then ill get a backlight if i press buttons and thats it. Reset it and original firmware loads
23:31:11[IDC]Dragonamiconn: should I check the recorded file somehow?
23:31:28amiconnListen to it...
23:31:33[IDC]DragonI did
23:31:49amiconn...and maybe check it with an mp3 check tool
23:31:53amiconnI use mp3utility
23:32:00Bagderbg_: completely blank?
23:32:07bg_yeah

23:33:05Bagderthat's not expected
23:33:29bg_didnt think so
23:33:44bg_but a reset starts the original firmware, so at least its not toast
23:34:12ghode|afkhi, are you still waiting for linisn to commit Slasheri's patch?
23:34:20ghode|afk+linusn ><
23:34:32Bagderbg_: so a blank screen, just a disk spinup and then nothing more?
23:34:39bg_correct
23:34:43amiconn[IDC]Dragon: I remember having read somewhere that the mas quasi-peak stores the highest value until it is read, but I can't find it atm
23:34:57Bagderghode|afk: rather simplified, but yes
23:35:29bg_just held record and started it, loaded the original firmware fine, some text went up on the screen for < 1 sec
23:36:25bg_got rockbox.iriver in root dir as well as .rockbox folder...
23:37:00[IDC]Dragonamiconn: last frame is tuncated, otherwise ok
23:37:59amiconnLast frame truncated happens almost always
23:38:25amiconnRockbox doesn't search for frame start when stopping
23:38:41amiconnHowever, it *shoudl* work on split, but it doesn't
23:38:56amiconnI'll investigate further after committing my thread changes
23:40:15[IDC]Dragondo you have a new test upcoming?
23:40:31amiconnI'm just testing on my jbr
23:40:58amiconnThe new version should fix the overwritten beginning, but that doesn't happen always anyway
23:41:23amiconnObviously you didn't get that
23:41:44[IDC]Dragonnot with this try
23:42:09amiconnOtherwise there would have been a sync error, and an audible 'jump' on playback
23:42:22[IDC]Dragonbefore, I did another one, which couse a disk full
23:42:39[IDC]Dragonthen I deleted an album
23:43:03[IDC]Dragon_the_ album, internal MMC holds about one
23:43:32[IDC]Dragonthe first recording played shorter than I expected
23:43:33amiconnIf I am right, this was caused by the file save reacting on stray save events which arrived after the stop event.
23:44:05amiconnI have some albums that don't even fit completely on Ondio internal flash
23:44:18amiconnFortunately I have that 2 GB MMC :)
23:44:34*[IDC]Dragon blushes in envy
23:45:07amiconnGet a 3 GB ;)
23:45:20[IDC]Dragonnah
23:45:35[IDC]Dragonis that avail?
23:45:37amiconnBtw, my sis now owns an 1 GB card (Transcend MMC plus == MMC 4.0)
23:45:56amiconn[IDC]Dragon: I already told you about that taiwan company...
23:46:15[IDC]Dragonbut not that you can actually buy it
23:46:33[IDC]Dragondoes the MMC 4.0 have new tricks?
23:46:52[IDC]Dragonlike, addressing commands > 4 GB?
23:47:17amiconnI didn't find any specs so far :(
23:47:48[IDC]DragonI asked, we don't have them in-house
23:48:01amiconnMMC4.0 has high speed transfer (4-bit and 8-bit modes in addition to the old compatible 1-bit, and higher clocks as well iirc)
23:48:12[IDC]Dragoncould order them, but don't find this ethical
23:48:34amiconnThose MMC4 cards have more contacts than MMC3.x (in a second row)
23:49:19[IDC]Dragonmaybe Rocker would like that
23:49:40[IDC]Dragonif you can get a 4.0 reader
23:50:17*[IDC]Dragon is sleepy
23:52:05amiconnThere is a datasheet http://www.transcend.de/Support/DLCenter/Datasheet/TS1GMMC4.pdf
23:52:18amiconnHowever it does not describe the command set
23:52:57preglowmmc uses 1 bit transfer?
23:53:25amiconnyes
23:54:10preglowharcore
23:55:18preglowdoesn't exactly sound blazingly fast
23:55:57amiconn20 MBit/s maximum (MMC3.x standard)
23:56:08preglowwell, that isn't bad
23:56:09amiconnFaster than USB1.1 :-p
23:56:29amiconnIn rockbox, we can only read at 3 MBit/s
23:56:37preglowthanks to low clockrate?
23:56:53preglowor is there a separate mmc controller?
23:57:02[IDC]Dragonthankis to stupid USART
23:57:05amiconnThe SH1 SPI can only run at cpuclk/4
23:57:41preglowwell, which is it, spi or usart? :P
23:58:08[IDC]Dragona USART in SPI-ish mode
23:58:22preglowhmm, never seen that before
23:58:30[IDC]Dragonwith wrong bit order
