00:15:48flurblewould it be a bad idea to do anything with it?

00:24:06linuxstb__I've also just tried it with the H120/H140 1.65-EU firmware (alt. download site) and it worked perfectly. This is doing it the "hard way" using the command-line tools under Linux.
00:24:35EEzdetach auch
00:24:52linuxstb__I'm still using v1 of the bootloader, so it's about time I upgraded.
00:25:21rasherIsn't that unsafe?
00:25:33rasher(no usb mode)
00:25:39rasherOr was that even earlier

00:27:52linuxstb__As I said, it's about time I upgraded :). I'm doing it now.
00:29:36amiconnbluebrother^: In firmware/drivers/uda1380.c, locate line 228 (within uda1380_enable_recording())
00:29:57amiconnChange the MIX_MODE(3) into MIX_MODE(1). Imho it should help...
00:30:09rasherI'm thinking I may have some strings that are too long in dansk.lang. I find it hard to tell which strings have a size-limit
00:30:40amiconnrasher: Yes. Guess why I'm bothering Bagder about localisation v2 all the time? ;)
00:31:15amiconnThe comments should clearly state where these strings are used, and what the length limit is, per platform if necessary
00:31:16flurblewoot! i installed it! how exciting!
00:31:33rasherI agree
00:31:44rasherThough that could've been done with the current system as well
00:31:55amiconnYes, but really cumbersome
00:32:01rasherNot as elegantly
00:32:34rasherLooking forward to v2

00:32:50bluebrother^amiconn: didn't work for me :(
00:32:52rasher(and the v1->v2 script that makes notes of where to pay attention)
00:33:29amiconnbluebrother^: Mhm, I just tried it here. Same result. Strange.
00:34:11amiconnrasher: I'm afraid we have to adjust a number of strings manually
00:34:26amiconnLike, the current system sometimes has extra strings for the player
00:35:13amiconnThese should be merged (ID-wise) with the strings for the other platforms, since it is possible to specify per-platform strings for an ID with v2
00:35:31rasherOf course there'll be a lot of manual editing
00:36:10amiconnThere are also some strings that should be merged in general. Sometimes there are 2 strings for one message, just because back in the old rockbox days there was no splash() function
00:36:28rasherI noticed a few of those
00:36:28amiconn...and the message should be displayed in 2 lines
00:36:55rasherLooks absolutely revolting on iriver
00:37:02amiconnI encountered one more of these just a short time ago
00:37:07rasherBookmarking code has some iirc
00:37:33amiconn(and did a temporary fix by joining them in one splash())
00:37:49amiconnsplash(HZ, true, "%s %s", string1, string2);
00:37:59amiconnNot exactly elegant...
00:38:57rasherWorks for the user
00:39:19amiconnBagder: What do you think, should we do an incremental cleanup of all IDs *after* commiting the v2 system?
00:40:02amiconnIt will break intermediate language files, but we will probably end up with rather clean files
00:40:24amiconnOf course we should "freeze" the IDs again at some point
00:40:43rasherMy idea is that after v2 is introduced, only english should be available until it's cleaned up
00:42:00 Quit pike (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
00:42:13amiconnI think the work on other languages can be done in parallel - since the IDs are "linked" to english there's no big risk of messing up
00:43:12amiconnThe language files have a version number. This should be bumped 2 times, once when committing v2 and again when the cleanup is done

01:09:18stripwaxshould i just take it apart and assess the damage?
01:09:25rasherOpen it up and fiddle with the reset button
01:09:43rasherI seem to recall other people being successful in doing so
01:10:27stripwaxokie doke. i'm suspicious that reset button might actually have come off .. guess I'll find out in the morning, way too drunk right now to try something like that

01:23:13*rasher stares disillusioned at the ReleaseTodo
01:25:37flurblemy iRiver with their firmware always refused to play anything I'd recorded off a tape originally, and it's playing fine now, is that something you can put on your feature list? Never worked out why it wouldn't play though so I don't know what the feature is...
01:26:09 Quit matsl (Remote closed the connection)
01:26:10rasherHeh, what kind of file is it?
01:26:18rasherHow was it recorded?
01:27:03flurblethe obvious difference between them and most of my files was that they were recorded at 8kHz instead of 44.1, I guess
01:27:19flurbleoriginally as oggs, but i tried converting to mp3s to try and convince them to play
01:27:24 Quit EEzde (Read error: 113 (No route to host))
01:27:26linuxstb__Did you flash your iriver with the same firmware version that was on there originally?
01:28:00rasherWait, is iriver now able to play them?
01:28:33linuxstb__Did you mean to say 8KHz or 48KHz?
01:28:41flurble8000 Hz
01:29:08stripwaxcool, so stock iriver firmware doesn't support 8khz oggs and we do?
01:29:09linuxstb__OK. It's just that I remember reading about an iriver update that meant it could play 48KHz Oggs. Previously it couldn't.
01:29:39flurblewell, the doc for the iriver said it had variable support for oggs, but could play all kinds of mp3, hence my trying converting them

06:26:37Z-SaberI'm reformating it now, but it doesn't seem to be doing much. Progress bar is stuck, although it's all the way at the end.

06:30:30Z-SaberWell, I honestly don't know what to do right now. I could let it sit, hoping it'll magically be reformated.
06:30:50Z-SaberOr I could restart it and check it then.
06:31:19Z-SaberProblem right now is that I have no "windows," basically. No start bar, no desktop, no nothing, yet I think it is still reformating.

06:41:55Z-SaberThe reformat ain't doing crap.
06:42:27Z-SaberI know it's some kind of faulty connection inside the darn thing, and if I had a little direction, I could probably fix it.
06:43:16aliaskYeah, I'm pretty sure that the hard drive has little to do with it.
06:43:47Z-SaberAgreed. And using the built-in Windows reformating program, I can't even reformat it.
06:43:48aliaskI'd guess that the USB port has been hit, and it's registering as plugged in all the time.
06:43:59Z-SaberThat's exactly it.
06:44:13aliaskDoes the actual connection look broke?
06:44:57Z-SaberI honestly don't know exactly how it should look, but if something is not as it should be, it looks like it is slightly lower than it should be.
06:45:10Z-SaberBut that's my opinion and I really don't have a clue.
06:45:30aliaskAre you comfortable opening it up?
06:46:05Z-SaberAbsolutely, considering my warranty is up and I have nothing to lose really. Right now, I have a nice look storage device.
06:46:21Z-SaberNot a DAP.
06:46:33Z-SaberI don't have the right screwdriver to get it open though.
06:46:55Z-SaberAnd I really don't know how to turn it off if it thinks it's connected all the time
06:47:05aliaskHeh. I'm no expert on anything to do with electronics, or USB or anything for that matter, but it sounds like some part of the USB has shorted, so just open it up and take a look for stuff that looks plainly wrong.

06:47:55Z-SaberRattling is never good.
06:48:27aliaskI just picked up my H300 and shook it, it seems to have a slight rattle to it too. Like you say, rattling is never good. :)
06:49:42Z-SaberIn my head, I'm picturing little connectors and wires, and one of those connectors is very slightly bent/disconnected.
06:50:04Z-SaberIt has to be something small, but it is so frustrating not knowing what to do.
06:50:29Z-SaberThis thing was the best investment I've ever made, and now it's just a 40GB USB drive.
06:51:24aliaskNot a good feeling. Anyway, good luck with fixing it, I have to run.

08:19:59SlasheriHmm, can i use the settings structure to implement a non-volatile variable clean_boot or is there some better place to do that? If the user has not shutdown the player properly (e.g., he has used the reset button), then we would skip some potentially harmful things on next boot (such as automatic resume if enabled)

09:06:36Slasheriamiconn: it is if user plays a track that causes the system to hang
09:06:51amiconnIt's still not harmful
09:07:11Slasherithen it's not possible to reset rockbox back to working state without usb connection
09:07:21amiconnyes
09:07:38amiconnRockbox should never hang caused by a track
09:07:46Slasheriso that feature should be added, it's quite useful when traveling and the player hangs and can't boot up
09:08:09Slasheribut sometimes it will
09:08:15amiconnI would not like that added
09:08:36amiconnSOunds very Windows-ish
09:08:38Slasherithat option could be then used for other failsafe methods also
09:08:53amiconnClean shutdown, haha
09:08:54Slasheriyes, but there is a good to be a failsafe startup
09:09:24amiconnGenerally I don't like features that work around flaws in other places. Rather fix the flaws
09:10:17Slasherithat's true also..
09:10:46Slasheribut can we fix all of the flaws and be sure they will never happen?
09:11:11amiconnWe should try
09:11:17Slasheriof course
09:12:08amiconnIf rockbox hangs caused by a track, this is clearly a bug. If a decoder is fed with data it can't understand, it should either return with an error (preferred) or decode garbage, but never crash or hang
09:12:19amiconnSame goes for the metadata parser
09:14:25amiconnI've got the impression that the swcodec metadata parser isn't really robust. Why does a vorbis file with id3 headers (even if it's not a "legal" combination) make it hang?=
09:14:39amiconnI never observed such behaviour on archos
09:15:09Slasherihmm, yes.. but keep in mind that many (and all critical) hadrware designs have also watchdog timers even that they should never crash
09:15:22Slasherihmm
09:16:20amiconnI wonder why nobody is working on improving this situation. It's bugfixing time during the feature freeze...
09:26:22amiconnThere's a good test for robustness that isn't even far-fetched compared to actually possible usage situations:
09:27:23amiconnTake an arbitrary audio file, rename it to an arbitrary supported extension and try to play it. Rockbox should never crash or hang.
09:28:11amiconnI tried this on archos when I wanted to know whether the mas (unofficially) supports layer 1. Nothing crashed, it just behaved a bit strange

13:17:06ashridahyou could just open it up and disconnect the power
13:17:14ashridahit's not like it's going to damage the hard drive :)
13:19:22amiconnHmm, it seems I found why the resume time often isn't exact with vbr files with toc. The archos playback code has the same problem as the iriver playback code - it mixes file and play positions :(
13:27:22linuxstbWhich gcc is best for the SH? The Wiki says 3.3.4, but 3.3.6 is the latest in the 3.3 line.
13:27:32stripwaxashridah dude it's already open.. but yeah, i had to disconnect the battery connector. holding stop or play didn't do anything

13:28:39amiconnIt says 3.3.x, use latest of the series...
13:28:48linuxstbYes, I've just seen that.
13:29:19linuxstbBut the example still refers to 3.3.4 - which is the first number I saw when scanning the Wiki page.
13:29:20amiconnWhere did you read about 3.3.4?
13:29:28amiconnah
13:29:30linuxstbUnder "Unpack the archives"
13:30:12amiconnYes, saw it
13:30:38amiconnThe question is whether this should be changed. The recommended versions are different depending on target...
13:30:59stripwaxSo, the tiny component labeled "ST" behind the power switch is damaged, three of its (five?) legs are no longer attached. What's that component do, and (other than soldering its legs back on) can my ihp be saved?
13:31:17stripwaxsorry, behind the reset switch (not the power switch)
13:32:33linuxstbNo, I don't think that needs changing. But maybe a table at the top of the page listing the recommended binutils/gcc versions for each target would make that information clearer, and harder to miss.
13:33:50linuxstbe.g. Under Download the source code, we could have a table of versions, possibly with direct links.

14:43:17BigDave4I want shuffle to cross folders and can't seem to get it to work
14:43:18BigDave4thoughts?
14:43:19amiconnlinuxstb: Actually I don't like these plugins having separate dirs. For rockboy it is acceptable since it is actually a port of gnuboy which consists of several source files.
14:43:37amiconnFor all others, using several files is artificial, and imho unnecessary
14:43:49stripwaxlinuxstb ah sorry- what's the requirement for a separate source dir for Sudoko?
14:44:07stripwaxBigDave4 - I think you need to create a playlist consisting of those folders, and then shuffle the playlist
14:44:18BigDave4ok
14:44:20linuxstbThe main reason is that I'm using code from other projects (e.g. a Sudoku solver), and it would be easier to be able to just use the original .c/.h files from the original application directly.
14:44:33stripwaxBigDave4 - or do you mean, play a folder shuffled, and then play the next folder shuffled, and so on? if so, I don't think we can do that (..yet?)
14:44:35BigDave4I can have Iruvium create those for me
14:44:43BigDave4no
14:44:55BigDave4I mean play a single tune from a folder
14:44:59BigDave4then shuffle to another song in another folders
14:45:03stripwaxBigDave4 cool, then yeah, a playlist should just work there
14:45:37stripwaxBigDave4 - or if you want the entire set of all folders, just go to Playlist options and Create Playlist in root directory −−>root.m3u
14:46:09CtcpIgnored 1 channel CTCP requests in 0 seconds at the last flood
14:46:09*stripwax thinks on the fly playlists is one of the most compelling reasons to use rockbox in iriver!
14:46:47BigDave4I'll try that too. Thanks stripwax
14:47:07BigDave4Just loaded Rockbox and the shuffle piece is a little cludgy
14:47:38stripwaxlinuxstb - if that's all free sourcecode then I think a separate source folder makes sense- unless there's only a handful (say two or three) such source files, - in which case best to put them just in the plugins source folder
14:49:06stripwaxBigDave4 - I know what you mean −− on iriver, the default shuffle behaviour allows you to shuffle the entire set of songs without needing a playlist first. It's a bit of a pain on rockbox to have to rebuild root.m3u everytime new songs are added... maybe we can come up with a way to just implement 'shuffle everything' without a need for root.m3u ...
14:49:09linuxstbIn fact, the "external" code I'm using isn't that big, so I think I'll be OK with a single .c file if that's the preferred approach.
14:49:17stripwaxlinuxstb I think so
14:50:04 Part Liehbeth
14:50:14BigDave4That would be money. Thanks again. Trying the playlist solution now.
14:52:27linuxstbIf I have a file of pre-generated games, I will just store them in .rockbox (like sokoban.levels and snake2.levels).
14:53:06linuxstbBut is there a convention for user-data stored by a plugin? I will need to save the current state of the game between plays.
14:53:35stripwaxsnake2 stores hiscores, I think ..
14:53:40linuxstbAnd if I give the user the ability to either generate random games, or copy a game from (e.g.) a newspaper, where should those be stored?
14:54:24stripwaxin a directory specified by the user, i'd say
14:55:07stripwaxand store the name of that directory inside the user prefs file

14:55:58linuxstbRockboy claims the .rockbox/Rockboy directory - it would be easier (and consistent) if I created a .rockbox/Sudoku. Or is Rockboy a special case?
14:56:17amiconnSome plugins (viewer, snake2, vu_meter) store their settings in the same dir as the plugin. Rockboy creates its own
14:56:27amiconnImho both solutions are sub-optimal
14:56:59 Join matsl [0] (n=matsl@1-1-4-2a.mal.sth.bostream.se)
14:57:30linuxstbI'm also undecided whether the "saved state" facility should only store the state for one game, or store the states for every game - i.e. treat the levels file like a book where the user can move from puzzle to puzzle, going back to older ones at a later date if they are not completed.
14:57:59linuxstbBut that gets more complicated when the levels the game knows about are a mixture of "built-in" levels and user-generated levels.
15:00
15:00:38stripwaxonce the state is saved, does it matter if the level is built in or not? the state itself must be tiny, and self contained too, I'd have thought
15:01:26linuxstbYes, the state is self-contained. But the question is whether I store one state or many.
15:01:44stripwaxI'd say many, all in one file
15:02:30stripwaxhm, anyone ever successfully raised iRiver european support telephone line on a weekend? was that just wishful thinking?
15:02:35linuxstbYes, I think so to.
15:02:45stripwaxshouldn't be complicated
15:02:47linuxstb(I mean many in one file)
15:02:53stripwaxyep
15:03:03linuxstbNo idea about iriver support.
15:03:06stripwaxheh
15:03:39linuxstbOK, I think my approach is becoming clearer now.
15:04:43linuxstbThere seems to be a de-facto standard ".ss" file format for storing a Sudoku game. It's used by Simple Sudoku - http://www.angusj.com/sudoku/ and that site has zip files full of games that Rockbox users could download and play.
15:05:04stripwaxoh, neat. yeah, definitely use an existing format if there is one
15:05:07amiconnIs that binary or ascii?
15:05:18linuxstbamiconn: Simple plain text
15:05:29linuxstbBasically an ascii-art representation of the game
15:05:36amiconnSounds like a good thing to do
15:05:58amiconnSokoban does similar iirc
15:06:13stripwaxyep.
15:06:18linuxstbThis solves the problem of my Sudoku probably not having a random game generator - Windows users can use Simple Sudoku to generate random levels, and then copy them to thier iriver.
15:06:31linuxstb(at least initially - I'm sure one will be added in the future)
15:06:38stripwaxlinuxstb - random game generator would be v cool though
15:06:43amiconnUmmomm, that reminds me, wasn't there a sokoban level-caching patch ??
15:07:11stripwax..... yessss... ;-)
15:07:19linuxstbI've found a very nice solver algorithm (in C, GPL'ed), which I'll incorporate. It solves puzzles in 0.000 seconds on my 800MHz iBook.
15:07:41linuxstbNot sure what the memory requirements are though yet.
15:07:47amiconnstripwax: Hmm, that should really get applied; should also help on archos
15:08:02stripwaxamiconn - iirc, you were going to extend it to cache 'as much as possible' that would fit into the plugin memory
15:08:04amiconn(Though I'm not worried about disk spinups on Ondio ;))
15:09:03stripwaxamiconn - my patch as-is only caches if theres > 20k (i think) memory available to the plugin - not sure if that's true on archos or not
15:09:08linuxstbI'm not sure if it's a good idea or not (it probably isn't), but my current version of sudoku automatically saves the current state when the user exits the plugin, or USB is attached.
15:09:13amiconnstripwax: The bad thing is that (ideas * time_needed_to_implement > available_time) is usually true
15:09:19linuxstbFrom a user's point of view I like it, but as I say, I'm not sure it's good practice.

15:15:24amiconnstripwax: Your patch won't get lost...

15:17:15linuxstbAre all the current "saved state" files (e.g. hi-scores) ASCII files?
15:17:32linuxstbI'm assuming binary files are frowned upon.
15:17:34amiconnI don't think so
15:18:05amiconnYes, binary files aren't exactly what we want, but there are some plugins that save their settings as binary
15:18:12amiconn(e.g. the clock)
15:20:19linuxstbIf my saved state file contains mulitiple games, then I think I should search it for an existing state when a user views a .ss file.
15:24:53stripwaxlinuxstb - I actually hand in mind that your state would be the .ss file!
15:25:10stripwaxor is there any real difference between state and a .ss file?
15:25:56linuxstbMy plugin needs to know which numbers are part of the starting board (i.e. can't be modified) and which numbers the user has entered (which can be modified).
15:26:14linuxstbI'm not sure if a .ss file can contain anything apart from the starting state.
15:27:01stripwaxinteresting - i see your point
15:28:20stripwaxso i guess your state file would consist of something that begins with the name of a .ss filename, and then has an ascii representation of the initial state followed by the current state i.e. looks like two .ss files concatenated
15:28:47linuxstbI don't think I need to store the .ss filename - it doesn't contain any useful information.
15:29:04stripwaxI thought you said you wanted your plugin to look for saved state when the user opens the .ss file .. .?
15:29:38linuxstbMy idea is to store both the current and starting states in a file of fixed-size ASCII records. When a user opens a .ss file, the plugin will search the state file to see if that game is "in progress".
15:30:14stripwaxright but how will it know if a game is 'in progress' if the ss filename is not stored in your state file somewhere?
15:30:32linuxstbe.g. I could use the letters a-i to store the state, with lower-case meaning a "start number" and upper-case meaning "user number". So I just need 81 bytes (plus a CR) per game.
15:30:54linuxstbSimply by comparing the game in the .ss file with the starting state of each saved state.
15:31:03stripwaxeeek
15:31:08linuxstbIt's almost as quick as comparing filenames.
15:31:11stripwaxlike the idea of using letters for user numbers tho
15:31:30amiconngtg...
15:31:33 Part amiconn
15:33:06stripwaxlinuxstb - if you're storing both the starting and current state in a single 81-byte record, then I can't possibly see how comparing the 'initial' part of that state with the contents of the .ss file is anywhere near as quick as comparing filenames....
15:33:38linuxstbYes, you're right. But it's still a very simple operation, and only needs to be done once - when the user loads a new .ss file.
15:33:52stripwaxok true. it's no worse than the file handling in sokoban anyway ;-)
15:34:15linuxstbSo obviously the disk is already spinning and a state file with 1000 games is only 82,000 bytes in size.

15:35:18stripwaxjust so long as you can reset to the initial state if the user makes a mistake without going to the disk again. which should be trivial since that's part of your state record
15:35:33stripwaxsounds very nice by the way; i'll be sure to beta test it (if I get my iriver working again!)
15:36:09linuxstbIt doesn't need that much more work - this conversation has helped me work out how it's going to work.
15:36:15stripwaxcool
15:36:40linuxstbBut I do want to make it work on the Archos - which is why I've resurrected my old Recorder today (I had lost the charger and USB cables, but I've found them now).

22:38:56Febslinuxstb, thanks I'll check out that thread and fix the links.

22:47:49FebsI know, I know. Actually, I've made many, many updates the RB wiki. But the MR folks asked me to do the sticky thread about Rockbox info.
22:48:01FebsIt was either that, or they were going to do their own Rockbox FAQ.
22:48:30FebsWhich I was firmly opposed to, as two parallel FAQs would be more work and the MR FAQ would undoubtedly get out of date quickly.
22:48:43FebsSo the sticky thread with links to information was the compromise.
