00:00:55BippleSongs are now working again...
00:01:28RoriOgg is playing back on my bleeding edge but no wps
00:01:33Roridid I miss something?
00:01:36preglowno
00:01:37preglowthere is no wps
00:01:45Roriehntoo you lie!
00:01:51ehntoocheck the rbx homepage.
00:01:57ehntooand ogg is working?
00:02:07linuxstbI just committed a change to make the WPS appear - but it doesn't actually know anything about OGG/FLAC files, apart from the filename.
00:02:13ehntooohh
00:02:15preglowahh
00:02:17linuxstbNot even the length
00:02:18Rorioh heh
00:02:20preglowdidn't see that
00:02:36Roriyour too fast ;)
00:02:46ehntooand... ogg isn't working still

00:03:40Rorigapless ogg is sex
00:03:47BippleIs it normal to load a ogg and it plays the song but doesnt go to the next stage where is shows the length etc...
00:03:49preglownot quite
00:04:10preglowi'm starting to think we should add a faq on this...
00:04:23ehntooBipple: yes
00:04:27Rorifaq's take up valuable coding time :)
00:04:29Bipplebloody chipmunks its crashed again
00:04:40ehntoowelcome to the wonderful world of pre-alpha software

00:05:23BippleWelcome to the wonderful world of irver.com and back to 1.65EU
00:05:31RoriBipple good idea
00:05:43Bipplei know, im a genius, ill wait till its done lol

00:05:51Bippleor maybe until radio is in
00:05:55Roristay safe be well....come again!
00:06:01ehntoowhy isn't ogg working on my unit?
00:06:16Bippleyou'll be lucky if you can get anything working
00:06:27Roriehntoo what build? the last commit from LinusN?
00:06:36ehntoomost recent
00:06:53ehntoolike, within 5 minutes
00:06:58ehntooit's not giving me an error any more
00:06:59Rorilet me try it
00:07:07ehntooit just starts to play

00:13:03Quertylinuxstb: Thanks for the generic WPS, that's really cool!
00:13:03Bippleok re flashed to iriver, thank you for your help my good people
00:13:09BippleBye all
00:13:12[solid]the battery indicator is showing 50% now
00:13:19 Quit Bipple ("CGI:IRC")
00:14:03[solid]and to make it even more realistic i've been browsing files twice (to spin up the disk)

00:14:22ehntoomount /dev/sda1
00:14:24[solid]and i check the runtime using the debug menu (backlight every ~15minutes)
00:14:25ehntooeh... wrong window
00:14:28preglow[solid]: sure about that? if so, this is very cool
00:14:44[solid]preglow: yeah.. it's quite unbelievable if you ask me:D
00:14:52thegeekdoes anyone know where I can get replacements for the 3.5 mm headphone jack use on the h120/h140 ?
00:14:56thegeekmine are loose
00:15:03thegeekso I have to solder in some new one
00:15:04thegeeks
00:15:21preglow[solid]: we should still be able to make flac run much faster than it does
00:15:29[solid]preglow: yeah i know :DDD
00:15:31linuxstb[solid]: Are you just repeating one track, or playing a long playlist?
00:15:41ehntoobah... not again
00:15:46[solid]linuxstb: i'm repeating a specially selected album
00:15:55preglowas long as it keeps reading the disk, it doesn't much matter
00:16:36linuxstbYep, that's all I was checking.
00:17:03[solid]linuxstb: it has a bitrate of ~800 (ie the whole album), is 55 minutes long and has both tracks that fit in the buffer and tracks that don't
00:17:46linuxstbSounds perfect to me. I'm surprised it's so stable so early.
00:18:14RoriHow long for Ogg and Mp3 at present anyone know?
00:18:45ehntoowtf..
00:19:15ehntoowhy isn't my iriver showing up as a drive?
00:19:27ehntooAHA
00:19:31[solid]Rori: i'll be testing that tommorow (or rather tommorow and the day after tommorow if rockbox continues to perform so well:D )
00:20:15Roriat this rate Rockbox will be complete in a couple of weeks :D
00:21:00ehntooagreed
00:21:05RoriHey I like to be optimistic (which is unusal for me) :)

00:25:26ehntooit's still not playing vorbis

00:30:30RoriI am sure it will get sorted whenever anyone feels the need to do it. this is not a business :)

00:34:25amiconnme 2
00:34:33t0masI found a bug... I think
00:35:00t0mascan you verify with last CVS build, that keyboard input (or the whole ON/PLAY button) doesn't work?
00:35:35muesli-btw is there somewhere a changelog for latest builds?
00:35:45t0masand I guess that's amiconn's / my hold button fix
00:36:02ehntoot0mas: yeah... it is broken
00:36:07ehntoojust noticed that
00:36:15t0masamiconn: take a look at our little fix

00:45:07t0masok, now I can commit my paused -> next -> not paused fix
00:45:30preglowman, rockbox is shaping up with a quickness
00:45:30amiconnI 'abuse' the scroll thread to do the init as well, cause this can't be done directly within the tick function
00:45:37preglowi hope there's something left for me to do come july

00:45:50Bagderhaha
00:45:57t0maspreglow: enough ;)
00:46:20Roriwork on getting wps to work on ogg properly then ;)
00:46:21amiconnpreglow: Rockbox is never finished... we have archos support for years, and still there are things to fix/ improve/ extend
00:46:23t0masand if you're getting bored... I can do some more parenthesis... so you can search them? :P
00:46:32preglowamiconn: yeah, i know, just joking around
00:46:37Rorilol
00:46:46preglowat least there'll probably be some dsp stuff to be done
00:46:54preglowi still want to fulfil my dream of dsp plugins
00:47:03Rorigood dream
00:47:28Rorinice verb with surround expansion
00:47:32Roriane exciter etc
00:47:35preglowhahah
00:47:35Roriand
00:47:37preglowwe'll see
00:48:01preglowi guess the equaliser should be put in the core
00:48:12preglowunless people are content with what the uda has
00:48:17HClnope
00:48:21HCli fully agree with dsp plugins
00:48:28HClpreferably with chaining support
00:48:32t0masah, the iriver bass and treble is uda stuff?
00:48:34t0masnot software?
00:48:42Rorishame DPL II headphone support is not open source :P
00:48:44preglowt0mas: yes
00:48:54preglowhardware based
00:49:40amiconnpreglow: Probably the simplest thing (given that the uda can't do that) is a stereo matrix (stereo width setting in rockbox)
00:51:39t0masok, paused -> next -> playing bug is fixed :D
00:52:47t0masdoesn't give warnings here... and pcm_playback.c is iriver only... so it should just work :)
00:52:49preglowamiconn: just some simple mid/side calcualation thing?
00:53:17t0maspreglow: maybe it can so something like it for iriver's srs funcion?
00:53:20t0mas*function
00:53:30preglowi have no idea how srs works
00:53:31amiconnYup... you don't even need to explicitly calculate mid & side signals
00:53:44preglowamiconn: well, no, but you can look at it like a m/s calculation
00:53:45ehntoois iriver's srs in software or hardware?
00:53:52preglowehntoo: software
00:54:38t0masok, good night again :)
00:55:19preglowl = l + (l - (l + r)/2)*width, r = r + (l - (l + r)/2)*width
00:55:19amiconnpreglow: The MAS does this in its dsp core. Just mixing left_in and right_in into left_out and right_out using 4 scale factors of -1...+1
00:55:21preglowsomething like that
00:55:42preglowwhere l and r are sample values for left and right
00:55:44 Join courtc [0] (~courtc@adsl-158-36-109.asm.bellsouth.net)
00:56:11preglowthat's quite basically a mid/side conversion with side amplification
00:56:18amiconnI derived the formula used to calculate the factors from the desired width by calculating m/s
00:57:08amiconnIt's in sound.c
00:58:17preglowyeah, see it
00:59:40Roriyou upped the latest commit with the pause bug fix?
01:00
01:00:21muesli-will go 2 bed..have fun girls...
01:02:23preglowdoes anyone have any idea how the eq should be like?
01:02:24preglowlike specs
01:02:45preglowseems like a five band fixed frequency thing is what's most popular
01:03:14 Quit DMJC-L ("Leaving")
01:03:54amiconnpreglow: I'd prefer simple treble/bass, plus a correctly working loudness
01:03:57Roribleh
01:04:05Rorigimmie parametric any day of the week ;)
01:04:06preglowamiconn: uda has that already
01:04:17preglowamiconn: that is, no loudness
01:04:36preglowi've never done a loudness filter before
01:04:41preglowjust now roughly what it has to do
01:04:44preglowknow
01:05:23amiconn(UDA) Yeah, no loudness, and no sensible treble/bass range
01:05:40preglowi guess i could make several eqs
01:05:58preglowi've got a feeling people will request a more elaborate one in addition to a bass/treble thing
01:06:25preglowloudness basically just lifts the bass and treble a bit, yeah?
01:06:47preglowto compensate for 4khz peak in hearing at low volume?
01:06:54[solid]imagine having headphones eq presetes for rockbox... extreme l33tness
01:07:02 Quit DomZ ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
01:07:50amiconnNot that simple. It does it depending on the volume, and (hopefully) matching the ear's sensitivity curve
01:08:00preglowamiconn: do you have any idea how steep the eq filters in the mas are?
01:08:18amiconnno
01:09:02amiconnAll mas have volume/balance/treble/bass. These are done in the audio codec part
01:09:56amiconnAll mas also have the stereo matrix, done in the dsp
01:10:01preglowi never use eqs myself, so i really don't know what's preferable
01:10:10amiconnThe newer ones (3587 and 3539) additionally have loudness plus 'superbass'
01:10:26amiconn..also done in the audio codec
01:10:51amiconn'superbass' merely shifts the center frequency of the loudness function from 1 to 2 kHz
01:11:06amiconn...so it does nothing with loudness == 0
01:11:33amiconnFinally, the newer mas' also have 'Micronas dynamic bass', done in the dsp
01:11:58amiconnThis is a virtual bass expansion based on the phenomenon of the 'missing fundamental'
01:12:03preglowahh, yes
01:12:30preglowread about that somewhere

01:14:10[solid]6h was an optimistic estimate for me

01:14:26preglownot bad at all
01:14:42linuxstb[solid]: Did you remember to remove the charger? :-)
01:14:46preglowamiconn: but i really don't see the point, the should be no missing fundamental with proper earphones
01:14:54 Join bagawk [0] (~Lee@bagawk.user)
01:15:16amiconnI don't know of any earphone that can really handle 20 Hz for that matter
01:15:24amiconnEven 50 Hz is problematic
01:15:30[solid]linuxstb: yeah.. it's so cool i think i'll actually give it a listen now
01:15:41amiconnProper headphones can do that, but certainly no eaphones
01:15:49preglowahh
01:15:50preglowof course
01:15:56preglowi assume everyone uses great big headsets, like i do ;)
01:16:10amiconnYou said earphones...
01:16:21preglowearphones = headphones, to me
01:16:36preglowi call the smaller ones with shitty sound earbuds
01:17:22preglowbut yeah, that kind of processing will quickly be expensive for us
01:17:40preglowwe'll probably have to do pitch estimation and selective eqing or something
01:18:54amiconnI don't think we'd need that. I don't use it on the archos, because it adds a quite noticeable amount of noise
01:19:50preglowi'd never use it for sure
01:19:59amiconnIiuc what it does is: Filter out bass frequencies (cut off frequency is adjustable), calculate harmonics for them, then add these to the signal

01:20:50preglowwell, yes, that's actually a quite nice way of doing it
01:21:11***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
01:22:03preglowperhaps they just distort the filtered out bass
01:22:11preglowthat should generate plenty of harmonics
01:23:19amiconnIt can't be that costly, because the mas manages to do this in addition to decoding mp3
01:23:40amiconn...with its internal frequency of ~24 / ~22 MHz

02:04:54linuxstbI'm still not sure if it's a good idea, but I've implemented a FLAC parser to read the metadata independently of the codec. It currently lives in playback.c and populates the "id3" struct with things like "length", "samplerate", "bitrate" etc.
02:07:53[solid]okay, everybody's sleepin' and my iriver is still playing o_O
02:08:03Stryke`the flac test?
02:08:07[solid]yeah
02:08:31[solid]7hrs mark in 3 minutes
02:08:36[solid]O_o
02:08:49Stryke`hows the battery doing?
02:09:10[solid]the indicator says it's at 38-41 now
02:09:18Stryke`and is it the same flacs over and over, maybe not reading the HDD?
02:09:47[solid]however the voltage is now dropping more rapidly

02:10:16ehntoowow...
02:10:33[solid]it's the same flacs, but it has 32 megs of ram and not 337megs :D
02:10:37foresterAnyone happent o know which format has a better designed and documented decoding api? (Wavpack or FLAC)
02:10:59ehntooI'm assuming it depends on what you want, exactly
02:11:14[solid]forester: flac will probably be better documented and worse designed
02:11:20[solid]forester: with wavpack the opposite
02:11:28forester[solid]: Probably?
02:11:39[solid]yup, i'm no pro
02:11:42foresterI notice it is better documented, much better.
02:11:55[solid]flac is older and much more popular
02:11:55foresterI am not sure it is worse designed simply because it is older though.
02:11:57ehntoomeh... what in the world is with some of these ogg's...
02:12:05ehntoothey worked with yesterday's bleeding edge I was using
02:12:11Stryke`[solid]: what volume are you playing at?
02:12:18[solid]Stryke`: 50%

02:12:31[solid]yeah...
02:12:44foresterAnyone compare flac and wavpack seeking?
02:13:01[solid]the battery is now draining faster and faster, wonder if it'll reach anytime near 8hrs
02:13:17ehntoolet's hope it does.
02:13:21[solid]forester: i've heard flac seeking == hell
02:13:39foresterI just read 'extremely fast seeking'. :p
02:14:03[solid]forester: hell in terms of coding, not speed:)
02:14:20ehntooheh
02:14:43foresterAny recommendations on where I could get a quick answer to this dilemma?
02:15:01foresterI want to use whatever format I will be using the decoder of later. :p
02:15:08foresterThe decoder api that is.
02:15:11[solid]hydrogenaudio.org
02:15:15foresterYa.
02:15:26foresterHoping for something better.
02:15:32[solid]but they don't have any comparisons on the developing side
02:15:36foresterRight.
02:17:26[solid]hm... wonder if such a playback test could be used for improving the battery indicator
02:17:59[solid]saving battery states to some buffer and writing them to a file when the disk is spun for audio buffering
02:18:14linuxstbforester: Why are you asking about decoding APIs?
02:18:31ehntoolooks like I'm going digging into the vorbis code...
02:18:50foresterWriting an on-demand on-the-fly-re-encoding server.
02:19:15[solid]forester: you might take a look at squeezebox
02:19:24[solid]forester: it's gpl afair
02:20:17foresterWhat url? Google results confusing me.
02:20:36[solid]http://www.slimdevices.com/pi_overview.html
02:21:15foresterMore flac supporting hardware doesn't bode well for wavpack.
02:21:21linuxstbAll that I can say is that I've used libFLAC in various applications, and had no complaints with it.
02:21:36foresterlinuxstb: I am optimistic about it.
02:21:56[solid]forester: sure, but wavpack has a huge chance with rockbox
02:22:06[solid]forester: and the other way round too, imho
02:22:18foresterWhat?
02:22:25foresterflac has no chance?
02:22:28[solid]lol
02:22:30[solid]not that
02:22:46[solid]i think it might get more popular when it has decent dap support
02:22:59foresterMaybe.
02:23:15[solid]rockbox will be the first firmware supporting it i think
02:23:24[solid]and it already is realtime

02:24:17linuxstbwavpack
02:24:30zeoh
02:24:35zebarely ever heard of it :p
02:25:07[solid]wavpack and musepack might bring rockbox to a new level of popularity i think... two formats with very enthusiatic, devoted and usually also knowing-a-tad-more fans that don't have dap support yet
02:25:21Stryke`musepack :-)
02:25:52foresterI think musepack is about done.
02:26:02[solid]you know, the kind of final screw-the-ipod argument for the totally l33t g33ks
02:26:14Stryke`done, how?
02:26:52foresterDeveloper stopped doing much with it many years ago, before it was renamed... promises never fulfilled...
02:27:03foresterYears of enthusiasm is fading away.
02:27:10foresterWith some late-comer echoes.
02:27:11Stryke`oh, yes, but it still can't be beat for quality vs. size
02:27:36foresterStryke`: Many mpc'ers went lossless.
02:27:38[solid]musepack development is resumed
02:27:42foresterThe early ones anyway.
02:27:47forester[solid]: By who?
02:27:53forester[solid]: Frank?
02:28:14[solid]www.musepack.net
02:28:19forestermp+/mpc are two different beats.
02:28:25forester[solid]: Yeah, I visited that url years ago.
02:28:37Stryke`if my H120 could play MPC, regardless of the future of the format, i'd certainly encode my new CDs to MPC

02:29:06foresterIt's not the same thing.
02:29:37[solid]but i'm not sure what are they going to do about sv8
02:29:45foresterThere are also licensing concerns actually.
02:29:52foresterThat's why I think weird things seemed to happen.
02:29:55[solid]i don't think so
02:29:58foresterYeah.
02:30:02[solid]the one patent that was the problem expired
02:30:23foresterI haven't heard from Andre for years.
02:30:29foresterThen all these leet sites show up.
02:30:30[solid]about the time people picked up development i think... but i'm not sure
02:30:33foresterFrank starts making releases.
02:30:40foresterPromises made my Andre are not fulfilled.
02:30:42[solid]it's all lgpl now..
02:30:45foresterHe is not working on it.
02:30:48foresterAs far as I know.
02:30:57foresterAnd this is a story spanning many years.,
02:31:08foresterYeah, now it's lgpl.
02:31:08[solid]Musepack was created by Andree Buschmann (mirror) (archival site) and is currently developed by Frank Klemm (mirror) and the Musepack Development Team.
02:31:11foresterBecause of all this drama.
02:31:54foresterI think mpc is past its peak.
02:32:22[solid]yeah, probably because of the stop in development back then
02:32:22foresterIt may get better technically of course.
02:32:25Stryke`the point remains, its a very fast encoding/decoding format with high quality at low(er) bitrates

05:33:16DJ-suparappayeah thats what i plan to do
05:33:24DJ-suparappaim lovin this real gapless playback
05:33:33DJ-suparappaunlike the official firmware
05:34:14dapureplayahmmm....this recent build is acting up.
05:34:17dapureplayai'm going to put back the old one
05:34:24DJ-suparappawhats wrong?
05:34:25dapureplayait stops playing songs after a while.
05:34:40dapureplayathey implemented 'now playing' screens for FLAC and OGG now
05:34:44DJ-suparappahmm ill test that after im dont makin my wps
05:34:49DJ-suparappaah
05:34:59dapureplayait plays when u first turn it on
05:35:04dapureplayabut once u stop and change to another song
05:35:13dapureplayau can't hear anything
05:35:29DJ-suparappahmm
05:36:13dapureplayawhen u do d/l it make sure u have a copy of ur previous build. Coz playback on it atm is kinda acting up. although it's cool it was wps for FLAC and ogg. also they implemented some buttons on the LCD remote
05:36:35dapureplayaBUT me = not a remote user
05:37:06DJ-suparappaoo they did
05:37:11DJ-suparappacuz i AM a remote user

05:47:02dapureplayait's cd quality
05:47:05DJ-suparappaoo
05:47:15DJ-suparappaso not compressed at all?
05:47:27dapureplayakeep in mind it's just a wav file which is compressed without losing any audio quality

07:33:30midkthat really should be moved above the instructions so you actually notice it before you rip your hair out :)
07:35:33LinusNmidk: so you're bald now, and it's my fault...?
07:35:50midkyes, mister can't-design-a-webpage. ;)
07:36:41midkhmm. i thought convbdf was automatically built.

07:42:34midkno.. i don't have an iriver :)

07:49:11bill2or3I'mshopping for my first player.. about this >< close to ordering an H340
07:49:44midki guess the distance between you and the buy button then depends on your screen resolution and monitor size.
07:49:58bill2or3yeah
07:50:14bill2or3but in any case, it's pretty close
07:50:19midklooks like about 1 pixel to me... and thus... you should have clicked it about .1 seconds after you alerted me about your readiness to purchase it.
07:50:22midk:)
07:50:50midkthis av320 probably won't last much longer.. and i've got that best buy warranty to exchange it for anything i want.
07:51:17midksince it was around $500.. i wonder if i can get store credit for that, to get two different things..
07:51:30midki want that AV700.
07:54:01midkhmm. it's just too bad they rarely stock much in the way of MP3 players and multimedia devices.

07:57:21midkand then a couple random things like the iriver 6gb player, a rio player, and a couple samsung ones.
07:57:28bill2or3and..... nothing
07:57:46bill2or3I saw an H10, dig the slider
07:57:57midkyeah, those H10s.
07:58:03midknever seen one nor tried it.
07:58:47midki have an idea... i could get the most expensive one there, like the portable media center which is $500... and ebay it brand new, and use the cash to get an iriver ;)
07:59:03midkthough.. the portable media center isn't all that unappealing in the first place.
08:00
08:00:18midkmaybe they can back-order something else, though... it's kind of unfair that they can limit me to ipods or zen micros..
08:01:05midkspeaking of which, i wonder when this warranty/service plan/replacement deal lasts.
08:01:26midkit'd be just like them to notice how often i've used it and not notify me that it's about to end and thus get me stuck with a broken player :P

08:32:44dapureplayaIs anyone here having trouble with the latest build for iRiver?
08:33:13dapureplayait doesn't wanna play audio files very much.
08:33:38LinusNoh?
08:34:03dapureplayalike i turn it on. play one song......then i press stop and try to play another song in a different format
08:34:11dapureplayaand no sound comes out
08:34:39dapureplayair. i'll play an MP3 file then an OGG file and then ogg won't play.
08:34:54dwihnoHow well is the playback on iriver nowadays btw?
08:35:19Bagderit plays rather good
08:35:28dapureplayawell the previous build i had played everything fine.
08:35:34t0masmorning :)
08:35:54dapureplayaexcept my prev. build doesn't have 'now playing' screen for flac or ogg.
08:35:57LinusNdapureplaya: it doesn't matter which format you play
08:36:10dwihnoBagder: it must've happened lately then... or am I wrong?
08:36:10LinusNit can't play after stopping
08:36:18Bagderdwihno: the last week
08:36:29t0masdapureplaya, LinusN: it can with the newest build
08:36:41dwihnoBagder: really cool! so it's about time to get a h140 then I guess ;)
08:36:41SlasheriHmm, maybe the new wps update has broken this up
08:36:44LinusNi just installed latest cvs
08:36:51SlasheriI have really interesting problems too
08:36:54t0masit works here
08:36:58SlasheriSomething i have already solved
08:37:07t0masSlasheri: check out the pause fix then
08:37:21t0masI'm not sure if that's the perfect place to do it
08:37:30Slasherit0mas: I have done that and in my code there are other updates also that makes pause to work with next
08:37:39dapureplayawell i tried playing one song just then, pressing the stop button and playing a different song and it won't play anymore
08:37:45SlasheriBut it wont play everytime
08:38:14Slasheridapureplaya: Yep, that was one problem i just fixed (not yet committed)
08:38:38t0masSlasheri: what are your other new problems?
08:38:47Slasherit0mas: just a moment
08:38:50dapureplayaah cool. i was just checking if i was the only one who had the problem. I was getting concerned
08:39:45LinusNSlasheri: there seems to ba a problem with the buffering, sfter a while i can hear garbage (or rather short chunks of previously played songs) being played in the middle of a song
08:39:57BagderI got that too
08:39:59Slasherit0mas: when i press next track, does it pause the current track and the forget to unpause?
08:40:00LinusNmaybe it is a problem with the wrapping
08:40:01dapureplayahere again
08:40:13Bagderand I've experienced the all-of-a-sudden-stop
08:40:18SlasheriLinusN: Hmm
08:40:20t0masSlasheri: hm? it's playing, you press next, and then it pauses??
08:40:33Slasherit0mas: I think so, i will verify that
08:41:01t0masonly change was:
08:41:01t0mas- if (!pcm_is_playing()) {

09:46:11Bagderhehe
09:46:46linuxstbDo you think that FLAC metadata parser is a bad idea? I'm not sure about it.
09:47:21Bagderno, we need it
09:47:53Slasherilinuxstb: it works quite well. Some support for elapsed information need to be added also and more yields to codecflac.c
09:48:23Bagderand when we add a vorbiscomment parser, both flag and vorbis can use that
09:48:29Bagderflac
09:48:43linuxstbBagder: My thinking exactly. I don't think there are too many different tag types
09:49:12Bagderright, there seem to be only a few pretty standard ones we would be interested in
09:51:05linuxstbCan someone explain the "while (!*ci->taginfo_ready) rb->yield()" in plugin_start in codecmpa.c ?
09:51:20linuxstbShould codecflac.c (and others) have the same check?
09:51:37Bagderbtw, are the codecs still loaded in the common plugin space?
09:51:54Slasheriyes they should have it _if_ they need to read some metadata information from ci
09:52:14SlasheriBagder: yes they are, LinusN is working on that
09:52:18Bagderok
09:52:38BagderI find all the bug reports on crashing plugins while playing music rather amusing ;-)
09:52:46Slasheri:D
09:53:02linuxstbAm I right in saying that the code in playback.c runs in a different thread to (e.g.) codecflac.c ?
09:54:22Slasheriyes, there are two threads in playback.c
09:54:43Slasherione of them runs the buffering stuff and other one the codec
09:56:08SlasheriHmm, and buffer filling seems to be broken with flac again.. Maybe some updates to playback.c killed it

10:20:34t0maswith the exact bitrate / quality settings of the music?
10:21:07[solid]LinusN: i'd hope to see at elast 6hrs seeing how well flac flac performed and provided the oggs of the same album are 72MB, not 337MB:D
10:21:41[solid]t0mas: i think i will, but i'd like to perform ogg vorbis and mp3 test beforehand for the sake of completeness
10:22:05[solid]t0mas: the files were amx compression (-8), average bitrate of all files 852kbit/s
10:22:11[solid]max*
10:23:44[solid]t0mas: also, remote was plugged in, and headphones (koss ksc75) into line-out, volume set at 50%
10:24:17t0mashm.... the running time left indicator should be written too...
10:24:33t0mashow have you done the benchmarking?
10:24:45t0maswritten to some memory buffer what the battery level was?
10:25:08[solid]oh it wasn't really a benchmark... i just tested for how long it would play
10:25:21[solid]it stopped ad 3% battery
10:25:23linuxstbSlasheri: I'm still getting problems playing back FLAC files - they seem to stop playing after a couple of minutes. Pressing next/prev brings it back to life.
10:25:42[solid]and the end was qquite funny... there was so little battery that the disk couldn't spin ^^
10:25:49t0mas[solid]: can you benchmark it sometime too?
10:26:12t0masso make it write battery levels to a memorybuffer once in 10 minues or something
10:26:34[solid]t0mas: yeah, i was thinking i could do that if someone provides me with a build that does it, so the indicator could be improved
10:26:40t0mas8 hours = 8 * 60 = 480 minutes... hm... maybe just to 480 readings
10:26:53t0mas[solid]: that's what I was thinking of...
10:27:12t0masbut we'll have to wait for Slasheri to allow plugins
10:27:24t0masas I don't know how to do it anywhere else...
10:28:02[solid]great. i'll be so glad to help!
10:29:40Slasherilinuxstb: Hmm, if you can fix it, please do so :) I have to go now
10:30:28t0mas[solid]: maybe I can hackup the power thread to do it...

11:21:11preglowhmm
11:21:11preglowperhaps
11:21:16linuxstb[solid]: Is FLAC still playing OK for you? For me, it is stopping before it's finished one track.
11:21:23[solid]linuxstb: yup
11:21:28***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
11:21:29amiconnThere's currently the problem that the cpu is always boosted, hence it draws more power
11:21:55linuxstb[solid]: thanks. Not sure if that's good or bad news. I'll do some more tests myself.
11:22:18preglowoh, yes
11:22:19[solid]linuxstb: maybe something went wrong with updating? if it's stoppping before a track ends it could be connected to buffer refilling which should be okay in the build i have
11:22:21preglowso that's still there
11:22:22amiconnAnd making the codec thread yield more often will result in less buffering time, hence ´the hd will spin less
11:22:32amiconn...and _that_ will increase runtime for sure
11:23:16Slasheriamiconn: the cpu is not always boosted and i tested yielding codec thread much more often -> no decrease in buffering time. Maybe more tests should be done
11:23:34[solid]still 8hours is something you could literally boast about... ipods can do 6hrs of alac and 2hrs of flac (with ipodlinux) iirc
11:23:56dwihno:D
11:24:31dwihnoHow's the audio quality of the iriver compared to the archos?
11:24:40preglowwavpack is very efficient now
11:24:46preglowby far the most efficient codec in rockbox
11:24:48amiconnSlasheri: The cpu is always boosted for me, with cvs from this morning
11:24:53preglow400% realtime WITH disk writing
11:24:54amiconnCan't test atm
11:25:01[solid]preglow: w00t
11:25:11[solid]preglow: would love to test it also ^^
11:25:26Slasheriamiconn: hmm, when you are playing? it should be boosted always while buffering, after that only when it's necessary
11:26:00Slasheriamiconn: try playing longer and keep eye on the boost indicator in debug menu
11:26:57amiconnIt's boosted right at rckbox start, and stays there
11:27:14amiconn(playing mp3)
11:27:17preglowcommited a few new opts now
11:27:34[solid]okay, time to go pimpin' with lossless + gapless chemical brothers... the gaps on this one were *so* irritating. vorbis test as soon as i come back.
11:28:35amiconnSlasheri: re the buffering time - perhaps the ata transfer is slower than I thought... in that case it should be possible to do something about it
11:28:36Slasheriamiconn: Hmm, yes. That startup boost thing should be fixed. But on my iriver, it's not boosted always when playing mp3s. Just tested
11:28:58amiconnWe are able to read 4 MB/s on archos...
11:29:31[solid](i just tested it also, while playing flac, and it wasn't boosted indeed)
11:29:36Slasheriamiconn: iriver is still able to buffer everything in few seconds without any other load. But running codecs requires quite much cpu power
11:29:57preglowSlasheri: yo, any reason for the AFMT flags being formatted to fit a bitfield?
11:30:08Slasheripreglow: that's not mine idea :)
11:30:16preglowthis limits us to 32 codec
11:30:16preglows
11:30:17Slasherii got the defined from wiki site
11:30:24Slasheridefines
11:30:30preglowi can see no reason for this being a bitfield
11:30:52Slasheriok, maybe that can be changed.. but no i have to go again ->
11:31:11amiconnSlasheri: Then I think there's still something wrong with the yields. If libmad is able to run at 300% realtime, and we're just playing, it should draw ~33 % cpu power
11:31:24amiconn...and that should not even double the buffering time
11:31:31linuxstbSlasheri: My FLAC playback problem was a false alarm - I just had some corrupt FLAC files.
11:32:09linuxstbIt may be useful to keep them as bitfields (capabilities of codecs). Why don't we keep them as they are for now, and change them if we ever need 33 codecs.
11:36:41amiconnlong long would allow for 64 codecs ;)
11:39:23linuxstbI noticed that the id3 struct still contains lots of ints - should these be changed to longs?
11:40:00amiconnOnly if the value might not fit in a 16 bit int
11:41:02linuxstbThere is filesize, length, elapsed...
11:41:44amiconnlength and elapsed are in milliseconds, correct?
11:41:55amiconnIf so, they should really be changed to long
11:42:03LinusNand filesize too
11:42:26amiconnof course

11:50:55preglowmy player hangs at 'starting original firmware'
11:51:02preglowperhaps it's time to recharge it a bit :)
11:51:57preglowwhy is it that it actually refuses to start with too little battery?
11:52:05preglowcan't imagine that's caused by anything other than an explicit check
11:52:23Bagderdisk spinup problem perhaps?
11:52:30preglowperhaps
11:52:31preglowbtw
11:52:40preglowmp3 playback has some nasty playback bugs
11:52:46preglowwelcome to anyone who wants to debug my code
11:53:12LinusNpreglow: what bugs?
11:53:21preglowLinusN: it sounds like shit
11:53:45LinusNlike "pfrrrrbbrr"?
11:53:45preglowLinusN: gimme a sec and i'll provide an example
11:53:46preglowyes
11:53:52preglownasty background noise
11:54:01LinusNyeah, we all know what shit sounds like
11:54:37preglowand it's all over the playback!
11:54:39preglowbut no, it's there
11:54:50preglowit might come from the use of lower precision in synth.c
11:55:22preglowi could try fixing that to see how bad the performance hit is anyway, i guess
11:55:48DMJCany eta on when lower than 41000 bitrates will work?
11:56:17preglowLinusN: and btw, is switching sample rate to 22050 etc. any problem?
11:56:45LinusNno, it's not a problem
11:57:05LinusNhowever, we should probably resample anyway
11:57:30preglowto 44.1khz you mean? if so, why?
11:57:30LinusNotherwise the S/PDIF output won't work
11:57:38DMJCone track I have sounds like chipmunks playing it heh
11:57:39preglowspdif supports other sample rates
11:57:46LinusNpreglow: yes, b ut not all
11:57:58DMJCactually it's hillarious because it's a metal piece
11:58:29LinusNs/pdif supports 48, 44.1 and 32 iirc
11:58:37preglowLinusN: but yeah, i did an experiment with linear interpolation and resampling from 48khz to 44.1khz, sounds completely decent
11:58:57preglowthere's a wee gain change
12:00
12:00:13preglowbut linear interpolation prolly won't do for 22050 -> 44100
12:00:19preglowat least, there'll be tons of high frequency noise
12:00:52linuxstbWe couldn't do crossfading if we didn't resample everything to 44.1Khz. So in a way, the lack of 48KHz support simplifies everything for us.
12:01:21linuxstb... until the next hardware Rockbox-with-software-codecs is ported to.
12:01:44preglowhmm
12:01:54preglowcrossfading across tracks with different sample rates does make sense, i guess
12:02:13DMJCwill rockbox goto h300?
12:02:19DMJCeventually
12:02:19Bagderyes
12:02:22LinusNDMJC: yes
12:02:25DMJCcool
12:02:29DMJCmate of mine will want that
12:02:37linuxstbDo we know if the h300 does native 48KHz?
12:02:46preglowalmost certainly not
12:03:49LinusNno it doesn't
12:04:13LinusNnot doing 48000 is a flaw in the coldfire cpu

12:26:56LinusNcool, how?
12:28:00preglowlike it is now, dct32 does a lot of shifts to be able to use 32x32 -> 32 mul
12:28:24preglowthink i'll be able to eliminate all of those, and a mac.l + movclr.l should take exactly as much time as a muls.l did anyway
12:29:52preglowwe'll see, i have been mistaken about optimisation benefits in the past...

12:40:26linuxstbDoes anyone fancy writing a simple OGG parser to extract the metadata - similar to my FLAC parser?
12:42:09preglowargh, someone utterly insane needs to rewrite synth_full in pure asm for me
12:44:40Zagorlinuxstb: you mean the tags?
12:45:27linuxstbInitially just things like totalsamples, frequency etc, but yes, eventually the VORBIS_COMMENTS as well.
12:45:55Zagorok. i was going to say bagder did that, but that was in perl... :-)
12:46:02linuxstbSee my recent commit to playback.c that does the same thing for FLAC.
12:46:10Bagderyeah, and I only found an existing package ;-)
12:46:17Bagderdidn't do much myself
12:46:49linuxstbThe thing that worries me about vorbis comments is that they are just TAG=VALUE - the user can use any tags they want. But I'm guessing that applications follow conventions.
12:47:20preglowamiconn: and btw, mp3 playback isn't 300% realtime, as it currently uses a very inefficient dither
12:47:22[solid]linuxstb: aren't apev2 tags doing it the same way?
12:47:34linuxstbI have no idea, but it wouldn't surprise me.
12:48:00Bagderlinuxstb: I think we should just assume the most commonly used comments, and ask users to adapt
12:48:27linuxstbYes, I'm sure that's what every other application does.
12:48:44BagderI guess so too
12:48:53preglowyes
12:49:02preglowyou've got stuff like TITLE, ARTIST, ALBUM
12:49:12preglowthey're pretty standard
12:49:16linuxstbBut for example, the specification suggests (encourages) that users use tags such as ARTIST multiple times to indicate multiple artists.
12:49:31preglowi've never seen that actually done
12:49:46Bagderyes, that scared me too
12:50:20linuxstbIt would be nice (eventually) to allow the WPS to access any vorbis tag - so if the user wanted to store unusual tags, Rockbox could display them.

12:52:05Bagderno idea
12:52:17[solid]linuxstb: i think apev2, but i'll look that up
12:52:43dwihnoI saw apev2 on a mp3 once
12:53:14preglowwavpack uses apev2 a lot
12:53:22[solid]yeah you can use apev2 wiht mp3's
12:53:27preglowlinuxstb: david bryant said he'l look at that as well
12:53:50dwihno[solid]: If you ask me, id3v1 and v2 is all that's OK for mp3...
12:54:07linuxstbSo it looks like we have ID3, ID3v2, VORBIS_COMMENTS and APEv2 (with the last two looking very similar)
12:54:17[solid]dwihno: id3v2 is very limited, let alone id3v1
12:54:55dwihno[solid]: It's metadata. It's not supposed to be all shiny and stuff :)
12:56:14[solid]apev2 support for mp3's also would be great, that would mean foobar's tags (with unicode and replaygain data) for mp3's would work...
12:56:25Zagori'd say id3v2 contains way more tags than 99% of people are using
12:56:51dwihnoid3v1 is all you ever need :)
12:57:08dwihnothe 1.1 extension is cute too
12:57:23[solid]besides id3's suck when you have national characters in your tags

13:00
13:00:27Bagderare you seriously asking me?
13:00:47Bagderread the spec, you can clearly see unicode all over
13:01:11Bagderif players don't support that, if you use an older id3 version or whatever, I can't possibly tell
13:01:17[solid]i think i'll give up, spec's are scary
13:01:28[solid]oh... so it's v2.4, right?
13:01:42BagderI don't recall
13:01:57[solid]that would explain a lot

14:21:59linuxstbZagor: Because it seems the least elegant solution. To me, the solution is for the MP3 file to know it's own length (i.e. via the lame header).
14:22:01t0maslinuxstb: rockbox itself
14:22:09preglowamiconn: however, it does seem to cost a tiny bit of performance, i however think that's acceptable

14:26:08amiconnYou need to configure a logf-enabled build
14:26:26linuxstbZagor: That's what I was asking - does such a tool exist already? If so, then maybe we don't need to worry about doing silence detection in rockbox so much.

14:26:59t0masamiconn: I already have :)
14:32:49preglowdoes logf work from a plugin now?
14:33:38amiconnlinuxstb: Silence detection won't work for finding how much of the last frame isn't supposed to be there
14:34:22preglowthere is no silence in any frame that wasn't pure digital silence before it was encoded
14:34:30amiconnAn mp3 frame can't be partially silent, due to the way mp3 compression works
14:34:30preglowany non-zero sample will be smeared over the entire frame
14:35:19preglowhowever, the waveform will decay, so some kind of thresholding can be done
14:35:25preglowit won't be accurate, though
14:37:37linuxstbThis (old) thread on HA talks about a fb2k plugin that allows you to modify the lame header. Not sure if it's automatic though. http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=11669
14:38:51Musicmadis crossfading being worked on? (or do I misunderstand the cvs commits).
14:42:13preglowit's partially working
14:42:24preglowthat is, it does work
14:42:28preglowbut it's not very customisable
14:43:18elinenbeSlasheri said yesterday that he was working on adjustable cross-fade time and curves... although he might have just been working me!
14:43:19Musicmadbeautiful
14:45:09preglowso, what's the general consensus on something that really enhances mp3 quality but shaves off a wee bit of performance?
14:45:17preglowshould i put it in?
14:47:42amiconnI'd say just do it
14:48:13linuxstbDefinitely - as long as it is > 100%, I say go for quality.
14:48:37preglowoh, it should be by far
14:48:57preglowi'll compare the runtime to the daily mpa2wav.rock compile
14:49:11linuxstbIf it improves quality that much, then IMO it's a bugfix, not an enhancement.
14:49:22preglowit's _really_ noticable to me
14:49:30preglowespecially during more quiet parts
14:49:36Musicmadwhat is it?
14:49:45amiconnpreglow: Btw, I also had the impression that libmad does something slightly wrong, but I wasn't sure at all
14:50:28amiconnI think libmad will exceed the MAS decoding quality with your latest fix
14:50:53preglowwe'll see
14:51:04preglowlibmad should spit it audio at around 20 bits precision now
14:51:14preglowout
14:52:46preglowis CONFIG_CPU defined in a Makefile?
14:52:48preglowi guess not
14:53:02linuxstbShould the dither routine take account of that precision? I'm guessing that the code I plagarised assumes 24-bit precision, but I never really tried to understand it.
14:53:55preglowno, dithering only cares about output device precision
14:54:11linuxstbOK
14:54:13preglowand assumes we've got more precision from the codec than it can provide
14:54:22preglowwhich is certainly the case now

15:26:27[solid]anyone experienced problems with ogg vorbis playback?
15:26:42[solid](bleeding edge)
15:27:05[solid]i'm experiencing some weird skipping
15:28:12[solid]don't know if it is skipping, but it sounds like sometimes it's playing not the samples it should
15:28:41[solid]also i had a problem with flac (same build) - it sometimes doesn't switch to next track, it repeats the same one
15:28:52[solid]if you press next - it skips two tracks
15:29:02[solid](ie it behaves like it thinks it's playing the right track)
15:29:07linuxstb[solid]: I've only been playing FLACs, but I'm getting exactly the same problems as you.
15:29:33linuxstbIt does sound like samples are being skipped occasionally.
15:30:13linuxstbI'm playing an OGG now, and it's skipping heavily.
15:31:20[solid]did anyone have this track repeat problem yet?
15:31:27[solid]that one seems totally random
15:31:51linuxstb[solid]: Do you have crossfade turned on or off?
15:31:57ashridahwhoa, yeah, it's buggy as hell
15:32:18ashridahcrossfade's off here
15:32:31linuxstbI'm going to try OGG with crossfade on.
15:32:44[solid]linuxstb: it's off now
15:33:33ashridahi press stop and it fades out the song, then the song kicks back in at the original volume even tho the menu's showing
15:33:49[solid]linuxstb: but this track repeating happened to me today, before linus' setting commit
15:34:09[solid]linuxstb: so crossfade was on then
15:34:19linuxstbI think track repeating and the skipping are different problems - I'm more worried about the skipping.
15:34:39[solid]i also think they are different, and also think skipping is more 3vil
15:34:40[solid];)
15:34:44ashridahand it's also decided to start rejecting some mp3's i've got again
15:35:31ashridahhrm, actually, i saw something flash on about it being unable to load a codec
15:35:35ashridahodd
15:35:45[solid]i'm playing some mp3's to see if the skipping is there also
15:36:02linuxstbI'm not sure, but I think enabling crossfading eliminates skipping in the middle of OGGs.
15:36:03ashridahworked after i restarted it
15:37:06[solid]linuxstb: i'll test it first then
15:38:03preglowargh
15:38:13preglowthe old problem i had returned when i moved the FPM def to global.h

15:42:16t0mas(so 1 bit per pixel)
15:42:32[solid]linuxstb: indeed, with crossfade on the skipping seems to be gone
15:43:50linuxstb[solid]: Yes, OGG hasn't skipped for me since I turned crossfade on.
15:43:50linuxstbI'll try turning it off again...

15:53:21[solid]i've turned it off*

15:54:09DMJChow optimized can this firmware get?

15:54:23[solid]but i prefer gapless to crossfade i must say;)
15:55:45[solid]turned gapless off... and it's skipping
15:56:24linuxstbYou mean "turned crossfade off"?
15:56:28[solid]oh yes
15:56:30[solid]sorry
15:56:30[solid]:)
15:57:28[solid]hmm... i'll try now if that other bug, with track repeating is also dependant on crossfade on/off
16:00
16:00:19[solid](from what i recall it never happened with crossfade off)
16:04:37[solid]indeed
16:04:40[solid]it happened again
16:04:42[solid]o_O
16:05:59[solid]so there's one bug when crossfade is on (track repeating) and one when it's off (skipping)

18:33:17preglowSlasheri: woop woop
18:33:25preglowwhat is it, btw?
18:33:48tucozwhen buffering a somewhat large song, and I want to shut down, it doesn't shut down until the buffering is finished
18:33:54preglowi know
18:33:58preglowannoys the hell out of me
18:33:59tucozok, hehe, great

18:34:54preglowit certainly does sound nicer
18:35:57tucozA lot more detail on metal-tracks
18:36:12tucozi.e. newer death metal, with good production
18:36:20preglowperhaps, i noticed it on a semi ambient track, actually
18:36:24preglowas some kind of jittery background noise

19:14:19preglowwhat the hell
19:14:38preglowi'm seriously starting to question the inner workings of my brain
19:15:23amiconnWhy does rockbox on iriver spin up the disk when I pause a track??
19:16:46linuxstbRockbox on iriver is doing lots of strange things at the moment...
19:17:05preglowlike?
19:17:36linuxstbNext/Prev navigation isn't working. The WPS screen is displaying information for completely different tracks.

19:18:08amiconnCPU is still boosted after boot
19:18:27linuxstbI think both the crossfade changes, plus probably my recent metadata-reading changes are causing problems. And I think there were already bugs before those changes.
19:19:00Slasheriyep, it's very buggy at the moment :/ i am trying to fix those problems but it takes some time
19:19:28[solid]glad to know you'reworking on it already Slasheri :D
19:19:51Slasheri:) i made those bugs and trying to fix them now
19:20:14t0masthegeek: sounds like a bug
19:20:14t0maslet me check
19:20:20linuxstbSlasheri: Am I right to say that you are mainly concentrating on MP3 playback? Most of the code in playback.c seems to be mp3 related.
19:20:41linuxstbOr is it general code, but with "mp3" in the function/variable names?
19:20:49preglowrockbox is very mp3-centric in general
19:20:52preglowfor some reason :)
19:21:03t0masthegeek: they all endup at 0,0 or at the first place chosen?
19:21:04amiconnSmall wonder ;)
19:21:13linuxstbPoor little MP2 - always ignored...
19:21:17Slasherilinuxstb: That's true. When mp3 is fully working, then it's time to support other formats better. But the playback.c should be quite universal regardless of the file type
19:21:18thegeekt0mas : at the first place
19:21:30amiconnlinuxstb: mp2 is handled in rockbox for long
19:21:41amiconnIt's just not mentioned explicitly
19:21:43***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
19:21:46linuxstbamiconn: I know - but all the variables etc have mp3 in the names.
19:22:03t0masthegeek: weird :|
19:22:20Slasherilinuxstb: if there is mp3 in function name, then it's meant to support mp3 only (and that function should be moved to another file in future)
19:22:31dapureplayahmmm....my music just randomly stopped for no reason. Is this stil a known bug or has it supposably been fixed already?
19:22:50t0masthegeek: I'll logf() test it...
19:22:51Shagnardapureplaya same thing happend to me this morning
19:23:16dapureplayawhat were u playing? MP3s?
19:23:24Slasheridapureplaya: currently the playback is full of bugs.. Maybe you would like to use an earlier build
19:23:26Shagnarme: yes
19:23:29linuxstbSlasheri: I think it would be nice to start that seperation asap - I'm very keen on improving the FLAC support, so am happy to duplicate your work, but for FLAC files.
19:24:11dapureplayaslasheri: aaaawww but the 'now playing' and crossfade is so kewl hehe.
19:24:14dapureplayai think i can live with it
19:24:32Slasherilinuxstb: Basically only the metadata and file seeking are codec specific
19:24:44Slasheri:)
19:25:04amiconnThe gui lags severely while buffering :/
19:25:15Slasheriamiconn: with mp3s also?
19:25:18dapureplayataht's kinda normal
19:25:20amiconnyup
19:25:26Slasherimp3s should now yield really often
19:25:28Slasherihmm..
19:26:01amiconnLike, when I push up volume for some seconds, and then release the button, it keeps increasing the volume a while
19:26:05linuxstbSlasheri: How critical are the "elapsed" and "length" variables for your playback code? Do they need to be set accurately for FLAC and OGG?
19:26:07[solid]Slasheri: are you going to possibly implement replaygain globally too? the per-codec approach (as seen in winamp, xmms, etc etc) sucks pretty bad (especially in comparison to foobar which supports rg in the core and the codecs just give the values)
19:26:21Slasheriamiconn: you could try with lower file chunk size. But that may increase the buffering time
19:26:39Slasherilinuxstb: That's not very critical..

19:27:21Slasheri[solid]: Hmm, maybe. Everything that is possible to implement can be implemented
19:28:04linuxstbThere is one easy-to-fix (I hope) bug - playback.c is calling the pcm_crossfade_start() function, even if cross-fading is disabled. I think this is causing Rockbox to lose the end of tracks.
19:28:23[solid]Slasheri: i'd be glad to help on that particular thing since it's very important to me (almost as important as gapless and ogg/flac support) but by finals are beginning next week and i would probably suck at coding that
19:28:24 Quit spiralout (Read error: 131 (Connection reset by peer))
19:28:40linuxstbI don't know if the best solution is not to call that function, or make that function return without doing anything (if crossfade is off).
19:28:44[solid]Slasheri: but, when the finals are over... :)
19:28:57Slasherilinuxstb: Ah, yep. I have just changed that if crossfading is not enabled, crosfade_start does nothing
19:29:39[solid]@#&%$ stupid computer... just made dvd's burn and not finish as toasts and the mouse irq got tragically lost in an oops dammit
19:29:41amiconnpreglow: I compared archos with your fixed libmad, using 256 kbps mp3 and real headphones, not my usual earphones
19:30:03linuxstb... and?
19:30:08amiconnI'd say libmad is a tiny bit more precise, but not really much
19:30:31[solid]anyone done comparisons to the iriver fw?
19:30:42amiconnHowever, another interesting observation is that archos can play louder, at least with these high impedance headphones
19:31:25amiconnI have iriver at 100% now, and to get a similar volume on Archos, I need 90%

19:46:38linuxstbSlasheri: Do you think we should keep track of elapsed time within playback.c, instead of the codecs? I think it would also be nice to switch to measuring time in samples, instead of ms.
19:47:57amiconnpreglow: Rockbox clearly sounds better than iriver fw :-) congrats!
19:48:07amiconnThe iriver firmware sounds 'rough'
19:48:24belgarath_the_sodoes anybody know how to switch from time remaining to time elapsed
19:48:33t0masSlasheri: bug report... when it's buffering... and I shut it down... it keeps waiting at the "shutting down..." prompt for the buffering to finish
19:48:44Slasherilinuxstb: It depends on wps. Currently wps wants elapsed time in ms
19:48:55Slasherit0mas: ok :)
19:49:14amiconnlinuxstb: time in samples would imho complicate things when the sample rate changes
19:49:47Slasherit0mas: fixed
19:49:54linuxstbamiconn: The samplerate doesn't change within the same track.
19:50:34amiconnNo it doesn't... but we want to display a time value.
19:52:53linuxstbIf we want gapless MP3 playback for files with lame headers, we need to know the total number of samples - and also how many samples we have played so far - so we can stop at the right place.
19:53:33t0masthegeek: how have you tested that both images get at the same position?
19:53:35t0masmine don't :X
19:53:48amiconnIirc we only need to know how many samples to cut from the last frame
19:54:22amiconn...so we only need the sample count within that frame
19:55:08preglowamiconn: can't say i've noticed that myself
19:55:57amiconnI just tried... listening to the very same track with all of (archos player) (archos recorder) (iriver, original fw) (iriver, rockbox)
19:56:14amiconn..at the same volume, flat eq
19:56:19amiconn..with the AKG
19:56:34preglowakg?
19:57:00amiconnLargish headphone, AKG K141 Monitor
19:57:10linuxstbIt just seems more natural to use samples - one sample is the basic unit of time when dealing with an audio file. But I can't think of any stronger arguments than that at the moment.
19:57:48amiconnWEll, the user doesn't want to know how many samples a track has, but how many seconds it will play

19:58:23linuxstbYou can convert samples to time, but not the other way around (depending on accuracy of the time).
19:58:46amiconnPlus, imho we should try to unify playback code as much as possible for both hw and sw codec boxes once the sw codec playback stabilises

19:59:05 Join Rori [0] (MO-Pantsu@deadman3000.plus.com)
19:59:26amiconn...and for our hardware codecs, it is impossible to get a sample count
19:59:26linuxstbThat's not an issue - we know how many samples there are in one MPEG audio frame.
19:59:34linuxstbIs it?
20:00
20:00:26amiconnWe can count how many frames we played (or rather, how many frames we transferred to the mas)
20:00:37amiconn...but not how many samples were played
20:01:27amiconnWe could just calculate an estimation from the number of samples in a frame,
20:01:32amiconnbut that number is different between mpeg1 and mpeg2, and also between layer2 and layer3
20:01:41preglowamiconn: well, goodie, can't say i hear any immediate difference between iriver and rockbox, but at least i'm satisfied with the sound libmad produces now
20:01:59Roriwhat? what? crossfade? did I read the cvs right?

20:32:53preglowThe rude design is done and i am writing code now. <- typo of the year
20:32:54CassandraI need to say that people need to make sure I have all the changes for 2.5 listed on the documentation page.
20:33:07CassandraOtherwise they might not make it into the manual.
20:33:13CassandraWhich would be bad.
20:35:28CassandraAlso, I am unlikely to put Ondio keybindings in the next manual release I'm afraid.
20:35:30t0masSlasheri: who's doing the audio_stop ?
20:35:31t0masand from where?
20:35:51t0masI guess it's your audio_next() code?
20:35:53Slasherit0mas: I am not sure where it comes from, probably from wps
20:36:03SlasheriNope, my code never calls it
20:36:05t0mashow do you select the next song?
20:36:21CassandraIt's looking like I'm going to need to batch convert from OpenOffice to LaTeX to do multiplatform properly, and I'd like to do the iRiver and Ondio platform specific stuff at the same time.
20:36:28Slasherinow i left the current song playing, then go to the file browser and selected new one
20:36:35t0masoh found it
20:36:39Slasheri:)
20:36:43t0masif you exit the wps, it sends audio_stop()
20:36:51t0masbut that was there before I did something to it...
20:36:57t0masso I guess it's needed on archos
20:37:19SlasheriHmm..
20:37:32SlasheriSo that's wps's behaviour? :/
20:37:43SlasheriBut who do it send audio_stop _after_ audio_play? :/
20:37:44preglowCassandra: good, please consider not using the default latex font
20:37:53preglowCassandra: on the grounds of it being very ugly
20:37:53t0masLinus did it in version 1.234

20:52:25t0mason linux and a fast pc it doesn't...

20:54:44CassandraThat's with today's daily build and songdb.pl from CVS.
20:55:46t0masSlasheri: do you yield more in buffer filling code on your local copy?
20:56:33linuxstbThis is probably a stupid question. I don't have any tags in any of my files (I just use the "Album/Artist/NN-Track.ext" directory/filename conventions) - would the ID3 database be of any use to me?
20:56:54linuxstb(I meant to say Artist/Album/Track)
20:56:57CassandraAh, crap. I think I forgot to unmount the disk.
20:57:04CassandraIt's now gone to size 0
20:57:23preglowhaha
20:57:41Slasherit0mas: Not yet but maybe i will lower the file chunk size slightly
20:57:49amiconnDoesn't linux allow to set parameters for portable disk devices?
20:57:50CassandraDamn you Linux and your lack of plug and pray USB.
20:58:19CassandraPossibly. I'm mounting it direct from a root prompt because I can't be bothered to arse about.
20:58:20amiconnWindows does. You can set it to 'optimize for quick removal'; then it won't use any write caching
20:58:40preglowamiconn: windows doesn't by default
20:59:00preglowwith linux it probably depends on the distros hotplug support
20:59:11amiconnI always simply pull the usb plug, and didn't get any problems if this parameter was set correctly

21:24:09t0mashm... should've been 24?
21:24:14t0masor am I misunderstanding?
21:24:17amiconnt0mas: yup
21:24:19preglowi've also managed not updating the stack pointer after stowing away some registers

21:24:45amiconnmovem is nice, isn't it? ;)
21:25:02preglowi wonder why the hell they remover increment and decrement addressing for mvoem
21:25:16amiconnThat would be useful indeed
21:25:20preglow68k has
21:25:24preglowthey just removed it for coldfire
21:25:39amiconnHmm. My test shows 2 things
21:26:02amiconn(1) Doing double-line movems doesn't increase speed when aligned properly
21:26:21amiconn(2) movem uses burst mode as soon as a whole line is covered
21:26:38preglowi thought movem always used bursts
21:26:44amiconnNo it doesn't
21:26:57preglowso i need to transfer four registers before it does a burst?
21:27:22amiconnNot only 4 registers, but the address must be 'line' aligned as well
21:27:30preglowghah!!
21:27:33amiconni.e. addr % 16 == 0
21:27:50amiconnI'll utilize that in memset()
21:28:23amiconnIt will be much more difficult to utilize it for both read and write in memcpy()
21:28:29preglowamiconn: well, what performance differences are we talking about? lets say i do a four register movem
21:28:57amiconnIf unaligned, it's just as fast as doing 4 consecutive move.l
21:29:02preglowamiconn: well, for memcpy you'll probably have to make do with just line aligning one of the arrays
21:29:15preglowamiconn: well, a bit faster, since no instructions need to be fetched
21:29:38amiconnIt's exactly the same speed, at least when working in sdram, and the code is cached
21:29:48amiconnI tested it
21:30:18preglowbut ok
21:30:20amiconnMy memset() test uses a number of cases which all add up to moving a total of 8000000 bytes
21:30:30amiconn(except the null test of course)
21:30:32preglowtransfering more than four registers will guarantee a burst
21:30:41amiconnThe largest blocks is 2 x 4000000 bytes
21:31:01amiconnTransferring more than 4 registers still won't guarantee a burst
21:31:12t0mashm
21:31:16t0mascan I write logf output to a file?
21:31:23t0masor browse up the log some other way?
21:31:40Slashericommitted
21:31:45amiconnA burst is guaranteed only if you move at least 7 registers, and the address is long aligned
21:32:05amiconnWith 7 registers, 4 are moved in a burst
21:32:44amiconnA burst is more than twice as fast as non-burst accesses
21:32:45preglowbah, of course seven
21:34:34t0masamiconn: then when you're moving 3 or 4 registers, can't you dummy move 3 to 4 others?
21:34:51t0masas if it's more than 2x faster... that would be faster than just moving 4
21:35:01thegeekbtw t0mas
21:35:10thegeekwas that multiple image stuff a bug?

21:39:30Slasherithegeek: thanks :)
21:39:36thegeeknp
21:40:01thegeekindeed Stryke`
21:40:13linuxstbStryke`: Do you want the extension or the actual type of the file?
21:40:31Stryke`actual type, but extension is usually just as well
21:40:55thegeekt0mas: we neeed image conditionals;)
21:41:08thegeekso we can have changing bitmaps for different type of files
21:41:46Stryke`i'd love a system like foobar's TAGZ
21:41:55linuxstbRockbox knows the type of the file (but at the moment it is guessed from the file extension) - so it makes sense to make the actual filetype available to the WPS.
21:43:28Stryke`im sure the wps will expand now that we have such a nice lcd available
21:43:33thegeekperhaps just implement it so that it uses whatever rockbox determines the file to be
21:43:56thegeekthen if actual filetype detection is implemented later it won't be a problem
21:47:20t0masthegeek: ghehe... would be a nice idea

22:12:07t0masbut I can't commit it.... as the files has many changes
22:12:15amiconnSlasheri:I did watch the cpu boost while playing music now
22:12:30amiconnIt does indeed boost and unboost periodically.
22:12:30Slasheriamiconn: did it work?
22:12:34Slasheri:)
22:12:49amiconnI get 16 seconds boosted vs. 11 seconds unboosted with 256 kbps mp3
22:13:03amiconnHowever, boost is still active after boot
22:13:14Slasheriyep. That depends completely how fast the codec is
22:13:45Slasherivorbis should give higher not boosted times
22:14:22Slasheriah that problem.. I will fix it now
22:14:50elinenbealso, another bug frmo the fourm
22:14:54elinenbeIt looks like Rockbox has a problem identifying .OGG files with an upper case extension, as .ogg files work fine.
22:15:48linuxstbelinenbe: Yes, that would happen.
22:16:13amiconnlinuxstb: No strcasecmp used?
22:16:18linuxstbelinenbe: Do you know what extension FLAC files inside OGG containers are normally given? Is there a convention? What about Speex?
22:16:32t0maselinenbe: do you have build tools?
22:16:49Slasherielinenbe: Oh, i have broke that.. fixing too :)
22:16:51amiconnpreglow: I'll try mp2 and mp1 now
22:16:52linuxstbamiconn: It doesn't appear to be - in playback.c
