00:11:23preglowthis it did not like
00:12:53webguest31Hi, about the latest sleep timer poweroff commit, was that maeant for sleep only or is idle poweroff included?
00:12:59webguest31amiconn:
00:13:13webguest31oops
00:13:34webguest31sorry bout the nick tabbing thing
00:13:59webguest31it seems idle poweroff still does not work with charger in
00:14:32amiconnThat's on purpose
00:14:47webguest31oh
00:15:50webguest31instead of having no option b/c sometimes I do plug the iriver in to listen at night, however I want it to turn off when it's done
00:15:53webguest31can't we just turn it off or on whenever we want to?
00:16:06amiconnYOu can turn it off by hand
00:16:29amiconnI agreed that leaving it running at sleep timer timeout makes no sense, so I changed that
00:17:20amiconnHowever, both linuxstb and I agreed that it is better to not idle poweroff while the charger is connected

00:21:49amiconnpreglow: Is there a reason why pcm_set_volume exists?
00:22:21amiconnI'd like to get rid of that, it would make implementing a cleaner way for volume & balance much easier
00:22:59amiconn...featuring dB-linear mapping of volume
00:24:04markunamiconn: You will start working on the graphics api next week?
00:24:09amiconnyup
00:24:14markungreat
00:24:18amiconn1 week of vacation, time to code...
00:25:16markunA friend will bring his md player and optical cable next week. I want to take a look at auto track marking.
00:26:13markunI don't think many people will have use for it, but still..
00:26:44bill20r3that would rule for ripping vinyl
00:27:27markunbill20r3: I was talking about iriver H1xx -> minidisc
00:27:32bill20r3ahh.
00:27:43bill20r3well that would be ok too, I suppose.
00:27:43bill20r3heh
00:27:57bill20r3recording md's is a pita
00:28:08markunDon't know why people use a md player when they have an iriver..
00:28:30amiconnThe other direction could be interesting as well
00:28:37markunAnd for 80 minutes of music you have to wait.. 80 minutes
00:28:53preglowamiconn: you'd have to ask linus
00:29:01amiconnI mean, when a cd or md player sends a track change signal, the iriver could auto-split the recording
00:29:08HCldoesn't auto track marking work by introducing gaps?
00:29:25preglowwhat do you mean db-linear mapping?
00:29:33markunHCl: No, you can send a track number in the subchannel of the spdif signal.
00:29:35amiconn_That_ would be great for ripping copy-protected cds
00:29:48markunHCl: When the tracknumber changes you split.
00:29:55HClah
00:30:05HClnice
00:30:13HClalso, as you can see, i do have internet at parents after all
00:30:21HCland i need to go to sleep..
00:30:22HClgnight.
00:30:27preglowrockboy asm core!!
00:30:28preglow:-)
00:30:29markunAh, I was wondering why you were still here :)
00:30:35markungood night
00:30:37amiconnpreglow: The current volume mapping isn't linear, because 0..-52 dB uses 0.25 dB steps and -52.. -78 dB uses 2 dB steps
00:31:03preglowahh, i thought the scale was constant
00:31:30amiconnpreglow: The point is wether there is a reason for having pcd_set_volume()
00:31:35amiconn*whether
00:31:47amiconn*pcm_set_volume() , bah :/
00:32:41amiconnIf not, I'll remove it and change uda1380_setvol to take 2 parameters, l & r
00:33:02preglowamiconn: yeah, i was thinking of doing that
00:33:05preglowwould be cleaner
00:33:06amiconnThen the volume & balance handling is easily centralised in sound.c
00:33:16pregloware you sure, btw? looks like the scale is 0.25 db steps all the way to me
00:33:28amiconn...and would be very similar to the dac3550 version
00:33:33 Quit Nuxator ("Chatzilla 0.9.68.5 [Firefox 1.0.4/20050511]")
00:34:15amiconnHmm, lemme check again
00:34:49preglowthe table is a bit misleading
00:37:37 Quit ghode|afk (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
00:38:16amiconnpreglow: It's definitely nonlinear
00:41:48amiconn0..-52 dB uses 0.25 dB steps, -52..-66 dB uses 0.5 dB steps and -66..-78 dB uses 0.75 dB steps
00:42:10amiconnFun, that
00:42:20preglowit certainly is great it doesn't mention it
00:43:25amiconnYes, strange. Table 33 says it's 0.25 dB steps full range, but decrypting table 34 tells you otherwise
00:43:40preglowyeah, i see
00:43:46preglowi wonder which is true...
00:44:06preglowwould be strange if someone devised that table in that manner for no reason
00:44:12amiconnIn fact it can't be 0.25 dB for the whole range, because 255*.025 is 63.75, not >78
00:44:30amiconn*0.25 I mean
00:44:54amiconn...and it would explain the rockbox volume behaviour in comparison to iriver
00:45:25 Quit _aLF ("Leaving")
00:45:26amiconnI remember someone telling here that rockbox 50% doesn't equal iriver volume == 20
00:45:28preglowdon't think i can detect changes as subtle as this
00:45:55amiconnNo, but the effect cumulates as the curve is nonlinear
00:46:14HCla curve is always nonlinear..
00:46:15preglowi'm very seldom lower than -12db anyway
00:46:20preglowHCl: no?
00:46:25HClno?
00:46:36HCli was of the impression that a linear curve is a straight line and not a curve
00:46:41amiconnReally? I'm often < 50 "rockbox-%" with earphones
00:46:47preglowyou can call all figures curves
00:46:51preglowthey don't have to curve
00:46:59preglowat least that's my impression
00:47:10*HCl is more down to the ground than theoretical :)
00:47:17preglowreally
00:47:26preglowdepends on the earphones/headphones, i guess
00:47:40preglowHCl: i'm a nice mix
00:47:43HClsleep now
00:47:45HClnight
00:47:45amiconnpreglow: Still, no obvious reason for pcm_set_volume()?
00:47:49amiconnnight HCl
00:47:51preglownone that i can think of

01:07:14amiconnpreglow: There's another stage in the volume curve.
01:07:42amiconn-72..-78 dB uses 1.5 dB steps
01:10:29preglowhaha
01:11:16amiconnI'll extrapolate that to be -inf our virtual -84 dB

01:40:16amiconnpreglow: What do you think, can we ditch the playback test from the debug menu?
01:46:28preglowoh yes
01:46:35preglowi can see no further need for it
01:48:56amiconnHmm, the audio circuit exhibits noticeable crosstalk
01:49:23preglowoh?
01:49:31preglowhow did you notice it?
01:49:52amiconnYou could test with the old code as well:
01:50:29amiconnPlay some music and set balance to all left, then only listen to the right earphone
01:50:39amiconnIt should be silent if there were no crosstalk
01:50:55preglowmore probably, this is a roundoff error bug in my code
01:51:09amiconnNo, it's there with my new code as well
01:51:14preglowstrange
01:51:26amiconn..and there is no roundoff error because it's working differently
01:51:41amiconn...like the mas3507 (dac3550) code
01:52:02amiconnOnly the values are different, and no prescaler to take into account
01:52:04HClalmost all audiocircuits exhibit crostalk..
01:53:10preglowyeah, but i can't ever recall actually having heard it
01:53:24 Quit hicks (Remote closed the connection)
01:53:26preglowif you can hear it, it's very significant
01:53:52amiconnYeah, I noticed it only because I am testing my balance code, and set extreme values
01:54:00*HCl hears it most of the time when his brainwave generator tests for it...
01:55:37 Quit Kat ("Computer goes to sleep!")
01:56:36amiconnHmm, strange. The archos player has way less crosstalk. I'll check the iriver fw
02:00
02:02:33amiconnIt's the same with iriver firmware and with old rockbox code
02:02:50preglowi think it's really rare to have noticable crosstalk
02:03:29amiconnOn archos player it's barely noticeable at full volume, when the other earpiece already distorts
02:04:53amiconnBtw, I even tested without the remote control.
02:05:04amiconnI don't use the remote often
02:06:20preglowi never use it
02:06:51preglowbut yeah, balance should digitally mute the other channel at extreme values
02:06:55preglowso it is crosstalk you're hearing
02:12:39amiconnHmm, I need to break plugin api backwards compatibility, now I'm obliged to sort functions :-/
02:12:53preglowcould you stuff in a logf while you're at it?
02:13:04preglowthat's sorely needed
02:13:27preglowgranted it's quickly done
02:13:41preglowi can't even remember how to handle variable arument functions
02:14:09amiconnThat's not trivial. It shouldn't be there when building without logf support, and we need a macro in plugin.h
02:14:36preglowwhy shouldn't it be there? it'll just be an empty call without logf support
02:14:52amiconnVariable argument functions are handled the same way as elsewhere
02:15:07amiconnThe plugin api is just a struct containing mostly function pointers
02:15:20preglowyes, i know
02:15:37preglowi've never used a variable argument function anywhere
02:15:39preglownot just rockbox
02:15:43preglownever had the use for them
02:15:48 Part Moos
02:15:51amiconnYou never used printf() ?
02:16:00preglowsure, but never made on of my own
02:16:05amiconn;)
02:16:08preglowand to have logf support in plugins, you need to make a wrapper
02:16:30preglowplugin_logf that wraps logf, since logf is just a macro if logf support isn't enabled
02:16:57amiconnYOu don't need a wrapper
02:17:10amiconnYou need a macro though
02:17:21preglowROCKBOX_HAVE_LOGF should do
02:17:26amiconn...and the macros has to make an assumption
02:17:37preglowbut then the plugin struct will be different for builds with logf support
02:17:50amiconnWe do a similar thing for DEBUGF()
02:18:23amiconnDEBUGF() in plugins is empty for usual builds, and for debug builds it's rb->debugf()
02:18:42amiconn..so it assumes your api pointer is called rb
02:18:42preglowahh, yes, of course
02:18:54preglowyou can just pass along the api pointer
02:18:58preglowLOGF(rb, "%s", lol)
02:19:15amiconnHmm
02:19:28 Join telliott [0] (~telliott@208-251-255-120.res.evv.cable.sigecom.net)
02:19:38preglowcleaner than assuming it's called rb, if you ask me
02:20:02telliottAre the current id3 database tools working?
02:20:12amiconnCleaner, yes, but also a source of possible mistakes
02:20:41amiconnYou can't check the correct number of arguments in variadic macros...
02:21:21preglowindeed, no, but if you mean mistakenly passing your string as the rb pointer, then you'd have serious compiler error on your hands
02:21:23amiconn...and it's easy to get this wrong: logf("%s", blah) in the core, but LOGF(rb, "%s", blah) in plugins
02:21:25preglowtelliott: should be
02:22:15amiconnpreglow: ah, yes, pointer type mismatch

02:22:25preglowheh

02:22:38amiconnNot? ;-)
02:22:39preglowso it will be caught
02:22:46preglowhahah
02:22:50preglowperhaps it will

10:30:04Nuxatoryes it should be in the playlist menu when whe push and let push the joystick
10:31:08NuxatorIt's like that in the user guide but it's missing in iriver build i wonder why
10:31:39amiconnThe menu layout could be improved a bit, but there are surely many different opinions
10:32:12amiconnE.g. I almost never use the playlist viewer
10:34:17Nuxatoryes but in user guide there is a shortcut for playlist viewing just on top of insert , queue.....
10:34:49webguest82now that would be perfect for parties :)
10:35:04webguest82or a dj
10:35:14NuxatorAnother question why hd spin up when i pause my music?
10:35:15SlasheriHmm, this is harder to integrate main & remote lcd dimming to same timer.. But should be possible :)
10:35:37amiconnI think insert is a way more comfortable first menu item
10:35:49webguest82make it last then
10:36:27amiconnSlasheri: Hmm, might be difficult to dim both differently with the 2 ints/cycle approach
10:36:40Slasheriamiconn: yep, that requires 3 interrupts
10:36:45amiconnyup
10:36:51Nuxatoryes last is fast too
10:37:22webguest82much more user friendly
10:37:47amiconnSlasheri: Different thing - I just noticed a bug with skip forward. It should do nothing when at the last track of a playlist, but it restarts that track
10:38:03Slasheriamiconn: ah, that will be fixed :)
10:38:23amiconnSkip backward is totally broken, but I think you already know that
10:38:30Slasheriyes it is..-
10:40:33NuxatorAnd you can fast forward further than the fisrt 2mo buffering, guess you'll have to find a way to buffer the first track
10:42:00NuxatorBut even with those bugs rockbix is still a lot more fun than iriver's firmware
10:42:00amiconnIt should always be possible to ffwd/rew outside of the buffered data, of course it has to reload then
10:42:32Nuxatorit's another solution (may even avoid this pb during buffering)
10:48:36webguest82pressing play (side button) when in 'view current playback' should return the wps,

12:00:46ep0chLinus didn't :p
12:01:09linuxstbI am sure it was just a coincidence...
12:01:21amiconnI see no point in having cpu frequency displayed in wps
12:01:41linuxstbThen don't include it in your WPS. But would you object to me adding the option?
12:02:16linuxstbI find it interesting for debugging purposes - to see which codecs need CPU boosts. AC3 doesn't seem to all of the time.

12:05:22amiconnYou talked about debugging.
12:05:45amiconnI don't think an end user is interested in the cpu frequency
12:06:07linuxstbMaybe debugging is the wrong word. I should have said "during development".
12:06:09ep0chso they wont have it in their wps...
12:06:28preglowi think this is a nice idea, actually
12:06:51preglowcould give a nice indication of how much more we need to optimise a codec
12:06:56linuxstbWhat if you wanted to try and test encoding settings to minimise CPU boosting. A normal user could experient without needing to play with the debug screen.
12:07:26linuxstbI can understand some people not being interested, but what is the downside of implementing it?
12:08:21ep0chlinuxstb, what does your implementation display? 1/0? or the full freq.?
12:08:33preglowan average would be more helpful
12:08:45linuxstbIt displays "FREQ/(1024*1024)" - which I think is the frequency in MHz.
12:08:50ep0chcool
12:09:10preglowwhy not just divide by 1000000 ?
12:09:12Slasherilinuxstb: it should display FREQ/1000/1000 (not 1024)
12:09:14ep0chdivide by a million no?
12:09:14amiconnlinuxstb: If an average user doesn't use it it would be wasted code
12:09:15linuxstbThe FREQ define seems to be the way to do it - it's defined for all platforms.
12:09:51preglowamiconn: yes, but it'll be useful during development
12:09:54preglowwe can always remove it
12:10:10linuxstbamiconn: Based on that argument, the whole debug menu is a waste of code.
12:10:19amiconnAnyway, if you're still going to implement it, using output_dyn_value should be the easiest way of formatting
12:10:26webguest82its like a rpm idicator in a car, useful for racing
12:12:13webguest82but not required for everyday driving

12:16:43ep0chty :)
12:17:22webguest82please make the 'view current playlist' more accessable
12:17:43linuxstbamiconn: output_dyn_value is a nice function, but seems overkill for this. I think the output will always be in MHz.
12:18:19 Part webguest82
12:18:48amiconnIf you always want an integer value, then yes
12:19:00amiconnMight be sufficient after all
12:19:32LinusNmaybe boost ratio is interesting as well
12:19:57LinusNtime boosted vs time normal
12:20:11preglowonly that would be more than adequate, as a matter of fact
12:20:12LinusNmaybe just a boost % value
12:20:15preglowfor developers
12:20:22Slasherior in average MHz :)
12:20:57LinusNaverage mhz might be interseting as well
12:21:57LinusNbut boost % and average mhz could very well be in a debug screen
12:22:05SlasheriLinusN: btw, what do you think about adding main lcd & remote lcd brightness configuration (0-100%, in 10% steps for example) to settings menu?
12:22:47amiconnLinusN: Do you remember why the last 2 conditionals in is_mp3frameheader() (lines 114..119 in mp3data.c) are there?
12:23:26Slasheriand maybe some fade settings also..
12:23:28LinusNSlasheri: as opposed to contrast?
12:23:49SlasheriLinusN: yep, i have managed to dim the backlight continuously :)
12:23:52amiconnIt seems the intention is to treat layer 1 data as invalid since the mas can't handle it, but it's looking (1) cumbersome and (2) even incomplete
12:23:56Slasheriworks nice
12:24:22preglowSlasheri: fixed the glitches?
12:24:30LinusNSlasheri: you didn't say "backlight"...
12:24:36Slasheripreglow: almost fully fixed
12:24:44Slasheriah.. but i meant backlight :)
12:25:22LinusNamiconn: i don't remember, , check the cvs log
12:25:24Slasheripreglow: i am now working to implement maximum of 3 interrupts per pwm cycle to drive both backlights
12:25:42LinusNSlasheri: how did you implement it?
12:26:02amiconnLinusN: committed by linusnielsen as v 1.1 ...
12:26:13LinusNamiconn: hehe
12:26:33LinusNthat code was borrowed, and i'm not sure i did that part
12:26:34SlasheriLinusN: i initialized timer1 to create the pwm pulses
12:26:54amiconnLinusN: Ah ok
12:27:31SlasheriLinusN: currently i tested it with main screen backlight: 2 interrupts / pwm cycle
12:27:37amiconnWill check the other conditionals again, should be possible to simplify these last 2 considerably
12:27:44Slasheribacklight fades very smoothly
12:28:39LinusNSlasheri: interrupt frequency?
12:29:10SlasheriHmm, currently pwm cycle frequency is about 5ms
12:29:30SlasheriInterrupt frequency varies a bit but there should be never more than 3 interrupts in 5 ms period
12:29:57LinusNSlasheri: how do you handle cpu boost?
12:30:23amiconnHmm, just a thing. Interrupt driven pwm will probably cost more cpu than you'd think on first sight. Any interrupt breaks cpu sleep and causes at least one thread schedule cycle until all threads are sleeping again
12:30:29SlasheriLinusN: it's still unhandled. There is very slight blink when cpu frequency changes..
12:30:52LinusNamiconn: correct
12:30:53Slasheriamiconn: Hmm..
12:31:18Slasheriat least it worked without problems for 500 kbit/s vorbis files ;)
12:31:41LinusNSlasheri: we're talking about battery consumption
12:31:58SlasheriLinusN: of course.. that should be measured
12:32:24amiconnLinusN: (mp3data) Removing the last 2 conditionals fixes layer 1 for iriver, so it'll be #ifdefed out there
12:32:26Slasheriand some menu option added to turn on/off the backlight dimming
12:32:34LinusNi can go with fading, but a constant pwm for "brightness" is a waste of battery
12:32:50amiconnWe can do the same on archos player btw

12:35:36amiconnSlasheri: I agree that softly fading backlight might be a cool effect (unfortunately impossible on archos recorder), but constant dimming is unnecessary imho
12:35:42LinusNMisticJeff: what a funny request
12:35:49amiconnThe backlight isn't exactly very bright anyway
12:36:36preglowby no means
12:36:47Slasheriamiconn: yep. i just though if it could be possible to keep for example remote lcd continuously on with a low brightness without much battery decrease :)
12:36:52preglowbut measuring power drainage might be interesting anyway
12:36:53crwlhehe, i have been wondering... why do people want to stuff *everything* to the wps
12:37:35leftrightbecuase they stare at it all the time while musics playing :)
12:37:37amiconnSlasheri: It might end up using more battery power for the cpu than it would cost to just leave the backlight at 100%
12:38:31Slasheriamiconn: yep.. that has to be measured :)
12:38:51preglowamiconn: i don't think its a question of battery power for the ones wanting to use it
12:39:00preglowmore a comfort/whatever thing
12:39:12crwlleetness thing, you mean
12:39:28preglowwhatever floats your boat
12:39:32crwl:)
12:40:14amiconnSlasheri: Btw, where did you put your interrupt routines? backlight.c?
12:40:28LinusNMisticJeff: is it something *you* want, or are you just the messenger?
12:40:33Slasheriamiconn: yes.. everything is in backlight.c

12:53:54preglowSlasheri: so is the glitches fixable?
12:54:17Slasheripreglow: yes they are (at least if cpu frequency is not changed during fading)
12:54:27preglowSlasheri: well, that's a fairly common occurance
12:54:53Slasherithe frequency could be boosted/locked so there will be no glitches
12:55:05amiconnSlasheri: Do you change the timer interval for different cpu frequencies?
12:55:09 Join Audiophil [0] (~c1d85c22@labb.contactor.se)
12:55:22preglowSlasheri: or you could just lock the brightness at a specific setting before a cpu_boost
12:55:26Slasheriamiconn: yep, at every interrupt the correct frequency is calculated
12:56:04Slasherifrequency=intervall
12:56:34amiconnI think that it might help to avoid glitching if the total interval (Ton + Toff) is a constant number of cycles, regardless of frequency
12:58:39SlasheriHmm, maybe. Or TRR1 could be updated on every cpu frequency change. That should also fix it
12:58:52Slasherinow some food :) ->

14:56:06TeslacuteI've been reading the battery FAQ, specifically the bit about leaving the player connected to the mains for a while. Do you know whether that's the same on the H100's or just the Archos?

14:56:59preglowdAMN, that's some interrupt handler :PP
14:57:31SlasheriTeslacute: Hmm, i think you shouldn't worry about that. Irivers has litium polymer battery and hardware charging control so you can charge the battery anytime you wish
14:57:56SlasheriAnd new replacement batteries are pretty cheap also :)
14:58:28ChamoisSlasheri : the backlight is beautiful now
14:58:28Slasheripreglow: Yep, a bit monster for an interrupt handler ;D
14:58:30Chamoiscongrats
14:58:36Slasheri:)
14:59:59Teslacute@Slasheri: I leave it plugged in for days on end and use it as the core of a hi-fi system, the charging indicator turns off and I presumed it left the batteries alone from then on and just ran itself off the mains but after the FAQ I'm not sure...
15:00
15:00:33SlasheriHmm, i think it should not charge the batteries when the led is off..
15:00:44SlasheriSo it should be safe to leave it connected
15:00:47belgarathno i think it always runs off the battery even when connected
15:01:22preglowfade looks very nice
15:01:25belgarathbut seeing as its li polymer and not nimh it shouldn't really matter
15:01:27preglowstill a bit long for my taste
15:01:41Chamoismaybe an option to choose the time
15:02:05Slasheripreglow: that can be configured. Maybe some menu option should be added
15:02:29preglowdon't know if i'd say an option is needed
15:02:31belgarathwould you be able to change the brightness of the led so that it is constantly dimmer than normal?
15:02:37preglowbut that's just my opinion
15:02:48Slasheripreglow: i like a longer fade :)
15:03:23Teslacutethanks guys, it only has to last a few years anyway.

15:03:44 Part Teslacute
15:03:59Slasheribelgarath: it is possible but it might eat more battery than it saves

15:07:07preglowoh yes
15:07:20preglownot all things are 64 bit ready yet, i'm afraid
15:07:59webguest83i was reading misticriver forums before in h300 section and 1 poster said at moment playback is only a hack because it is a plugin and other plugins can interfere with it. Is this true?
15:08:15preglowwebguest83: it's not exactly a hack
15:08:18webguest83i meant for h100 of course
15:08:24preglowwebguest83: but we need to fix that, yes
15:08:48preglowother plugins WILL interfere with it
15:08:57preglowyou can't use plugins while playing music currently
15:09:00preglowbut like i said, that'll be fixed
15:09:31webguest83i guess it would be silly to ask for a timescale since you guys work at your own pace on your own time
15:09:36preglowindeed
15:09:38preglowwhy does it matter?
15:10:06preglowfixing this shouldn't be _that_ much of a job, so i hope it'll be done soon
15:10:08preglowcouple of weeks, perhaps
15:10:08webguest83why does what matter?
15:10:13preglowbut no guarantees
15:10:13webguest83k
15:12:24webguest83its just i thought this multi codec architecture and playback stuff that everyone was sort of avoiding until slasheri came along was the proper thing not a plugin. but what does it matter to me. ill just keep waiting (not in a bad way), rockbox is free
15:13:49preglowi don't understand what you mean
15:13:55preglowcodecs will always be plugins
15:14:07preglowif not, we'd have to keep all of them in memory at once, that'd be a waste of ram
15:14:13preglowwe just need to make a new kind of plugin for codecs
15:14:30preglowso we'll have to types of plugins: ordinary plugins and codec plugins
15:14:39preglowthe second part is missing right now
15:14:53webguest83do those ipodlinux guys ever come in here? someone posted the other day about them getting video to work at 15 fps though with no sound currently and video is uncompressed. will rockbox be around 15 fps with sound or different?

15:16:26belgarathits great
15:18:10webguest83hmm I've had the bootloader ready to flash for a while now, but I've held back to see if any scary bugs pop up. whats the longet you guys have used rockbox on h1x0 without a crash or needing reset button?
15:18:23leftrightdont know if fade in is a good idea, would prefer it to be instant,
15:18:24webguest83longest*
15:18:26preglowif you're afraid of using the reset button, keep away
15:18:33webguest83ok fair enough
15:18:36preglowit shouldn't happen much, but it'll happen
15:18:45preglowno players have been destroyed using rockbox so far
15:18:49preglowi've reset my player hundreds of times
15:19:09preglowbut that's because i'm a developer
15:19:10webguest83the other i saw someone say there were lots of 'crosslinked' sectors on their disk when they used some diskchecking utility

15:19:44preglowyeah, i saw it, i still have no idea
15:19:48preglowthat might not be rockbox' fault

19:02:32markunMe neither. I would guess it's only needed when you press stop..
19:02:45Tangledingin fact i'm not sure i understood
19:03:17Tangledingyou talk about the config saved in inacessible HD part?
19:03:22Tangledingor *.cfg one?
19:03:43markunIf you have resume enabled and you press pause during playback the settings are being written to the inacessible HD part.
19:04:01Tangledingokay$
19:04:07Tangledingand not in STOP mode?
19:04:53markunlet me check..
19:06:52markunHm, no, don't think so.
19:07:15hubbelSlasheri: think it would be cleaner to use that instead of using the other timer (which might be needed for some more critical function)
19:07:49markunTangleding: I was mistaken, there is also HD activity if you press stop.
19:08:06Tangledingokay no problem
19:08:10Tangledinganyway
19:08:18Tangledingi was just making hypothesis
19:08:25Tangleding(i m not a developer)
19:08:31Slasherihubbel: that's true.. maybe it should moved to use kernel tick timer if it works that way
19:08:53hubbelSlasheri: think timer0 is at 100 hz
19:09:15Slasheriah!
19:09:19Slasheriit's not possible
19:09:23Tangleding(i imagine the safe HDD part couldn't be acceeded in play mode?)
19:10:10Slashericurrent implementation needs to change timer period and kernel timer resolution is not high enough for that
19:13:10Slasheri100 Hz could be enough for some kind of dimming, but it would require to toggle backlight on every tick (or to do some calculations) and pwm cycles couldn't be long.. So that would be pretty inefficient and could lead to visible steps during dimming
19:15:16Tangledinghave good time all

20:09:29Tangledingit's about Lame and gapless
20:09:47Tangledingis the issue solved or not?
20:09:55Tangledingi tested with latest build
20:10:19Tangledingand it was absolutely gapless when i used ff fw to get near track skipping
20:10:32Tangledingbut a firend told me he experimented same using ff fw
20:10:53Tangledingbut when he let the track ending "naturally" there was a little gap
20:10:59Tangledingisn't this strange?

20:11:53Tangledinghello Preglow
20:11:54Tangleding:)
20:11:58preglowTangleding: if you used ff/rw as well, then it's pure luck you got gapless
20:12:05preglowseeking is very inaccurate
20:12:18preglowthat is, it's not pure luck, actually
20:12:29SlasheriHmm, forward seeking should be quite stable with mp3 :)
20:12:29preglowbut like i said on ha, gapless playback does not work currently
20:12:32Tangledingindeed it's imprecise
20:12:42Tangledingbut not to much
20:12:48preglowSlasheri: stable, yes, but not precise
20:12:58Tangledingokay gapless still doesnt work
20:13:10Slasheripreglow: yes, but at least it shouldn't now mess with the buffer position
20:13:12preglowno it doesn't, and i don't know why
20:13:16Tangledingi wonder why it was gapless using ff fwrd
20:13:36preglowSlasheri: i managed to lock playback up when i seeked to a position that hadn't been buffered yet. this was yesterday
20:13:43preglowSlasheri: i couldn't reproduce it, though
20:13:55Slasheriah.. interesting
20:13:57preglowTangleding: luck
20:14:02preglowTangleding: some files just wont work yet
20:14:32preglowSlasheri: i tried the same thing afterwards, then it worked fine, but the time before that, the playback just stopped, with the hdd led blinking fast
20:14:40preglowSlasheri: and it never stopped buffering, it seemed
20:14:46Tangledingokay thats very curious
20:14:51Tangledingindeed
20:14:54Slasherihmm, ok
20:15:29Slasherii will do some small redesing to buffer filling system so that it would never block. That should solve some problems
20:15:56preglowTangleding: don't hold your breath for gapless to work, unless amiconn or anyone else fixes it. i'm very busy right now
20:16:09preglowSlasheri: that sounds nice
20:16:17preglowbut anywho, gotta go again
20:16:20preglowlater
20:16:20hubbelhm.. I'm using the remote-lcd to display recording waveform in realtime

20:16:52preglowhubbel: gotten anywhere with the recording test, btw?
20:17:06hubbeli've also hacked together with a buffers and threads

21:08:30Moosmaybe an option?
21:08:33LinusNdefinitely configurable

21:12:07CoCoLUSwhen i try to open it, rockbox displays dir buffer full and displays only some of the files
21:12:14CoCoLUShow can i increase the dir buffer?
21:12:29CoCoLUSthere's an option in the settings under "limits", however, changing it doesn't help
21:13:18LinusNCoCoLUS: there is a faq you know
21:13:41LinusNand a manual
21:13:50LinusNanyway, you need to reboot

21:17:03hubbelI really like to be able to logf to the remote lcd =)
21:17:20LinusNhubbel: then do it
21:17:27CoCoLUSis there a negative sideeffect when i increase them to much?
21:17:42LinusNCoCoLUS: smaller audio buffer
21:18:06CoCoLUSis that noticeable when i increase it from 400 to lets say 1000 ?

22:00:31MisticJeffQuestion for preglow or Slasheri:
22:02:14MisticJeffI don't like complaining but i have a request, anyway to have the ability to press any key when the backlight is off and have it just activate the backlight without actually activating the button function?
22:02:41preglowhmm
22:02:48]RowaN[that'd suck during the daytime, when you couldnt tell if it was on or off
22:03:05]RowaN[you'd see the screen, press a button, and nothing would happen in effect
22:03:15preglowwell, you usually know if its on or off
22:03:20preglowif you haven't touched it, it's off
22:03:52ashmm, just a small thing
22:03:56mrlalai usually flip the hold switch on then off again to turn the backlight on really quick
22:03:56 Nick as is now known as thegeek (na@ti521110a080-1004.bb.online.no)
22:03:58]RowaN[what im saying is that in the daytime, you dont need to press once before you can "see" coz you can see anyway even with the backlight off
22:04:01thegeekon resume, it asks for PLAY button
22:04:08thegeekthis is joystick press on irirver rockbox
22:04:11]RowaN[just press vol up/down
22:04:17thegeekbut there is a dedicated play button too
22:04:21thegeekthis is confusing.
22:04:53SlasheriHmm, i think that backlight should active when player is on hold and user presses any key

22:06:52Slasheribut maybe fade out only is a good idea if crossfade is not available at the moment you skip the track
22:07:18preglowyou can switch of fade out
22:07:24preglowit's been in settings for a long time
22:07:44MisticJeffwhat do you think guys??
22:08:09preglowpersonally i don't think i'll ever need it, but i see how it can be useful, yes
22:08:12CoCoLUSpreglow, about the bass/treble settings, they are equal to the iriver settings, are they?
22:08:22preglowCoCoLUS: should be
22:08:42MisticJeffnothing more agrivating that hitting the joystick to the right or left while a song is playing but the backlight is off and then skipping to the next song when all you wanted to do was turn on the backlight to see what was up
22:08:47CoCoLUSbecause i got distortions using the same settings as with the orig. fw on some tracks
22:08:52CoCoLUSnoticable on the new jack johnson ;)
22:12:38CoCoLUSdidn't amiconn report something similar?
22:14:55 Join webguest08 [0] (~50b16d10@labb.contactor.se)
22:14:56MisticJeffahhhh... MisticJeff solved own problem by realizing the record button currently does nothing while a song is playing, activates the backlight nicely. Back into lurkdom
22:15:08preglowMisticJeff: well, let's hope that lasts...
22:15:20preglowCoCoLUS: iriver firmware might be compensating by reducing the main volume
22:15:47CoCoLUSand that could be tested/confirmed by doing... what? :)
22:16:29preglowby doing the same in rockbox?
22:16:43CoCoLUSand comparing the output
22:18:49 Quit webguest08 (Client Quit)
22:22:18]RowaN[<Slasheri> but maybe fade out only is a good idea if crossfade is not available at the moment you skip the track
22:22:19]RowaN[What seems to happen when you skip tracks in winamp (when using DirectSound output plugin) is that the current song fades out quickly (in 500ms) but the next track seems to start almost immediately. It might sound strange, but I think its just perfect because its happy medium between crossfading and not crossfading - the next track starts immediatly (so you're not waiting around to hear it), yet the song you leave doesnt end
22:25:24]RowaN[basically the 2 songs are playing at the same time for a very small moment (1st track is fading, next track starts over the top at full volume)
22:25:39]RowaN[its very pleasing on the ears =]

23:38:38Bagderthe keypad difference between the h100 and h300 is annoying to fix in the code
23:40:04hubbelIt's a tradeoff when selecting size of each sampling-buffer, small is nice when you want a responsive waveform and large is nice because larger write's to the file is more battery efficient I guess
23:40:41***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
23:41:12hubbelOr one could use small dma transfers to get the waveform and delaying the write to file until a large-enough size has been sampled.. hm
