00:47:07XavierGrI need some cvs help please!
00:47:26rasherWhat's up?
00:48:37XavierGrI have a file (radio.c) which is older than current version. I have 1.76 and current is 1.77
00:48:50linuxstbJust do "cvs update"
00:48:59XavierGri use cvs and I made an update. "cvs update"
00:49:15XavierGrit tells me that radio.c is merged.
00:49:37XavierGrbut when I open the file the header is still 1.76 and the changes have not been made.
00:49:50XavierGr(Linus added 2 lines of code which I cant find)
00:51:09linuxstbIf "cvs update" tells you that the files have been merged, then they should have been. Are you 200% sure you're opening the right file?
00:51:09XavierGrany idea what going on? I could make the changes manually but...
00:51:41linuxstbDid you have the file open in your editor when doing the "cvs update" ?
00:51:50XavierGryes
00:52:16linuxstb"yes" to which question?
00:52:22XavierGrto yours
00:52:28linuxstbI asked two :)
00:53:16XavierGrI just tried with the file closed and the same happens.
00:53:27XavierGroh didnt notice yes for the 2 then/
00:54:15linuxstbI don't know what to suggest - you typed the correct CVS commands.
00:54:34XavierGrwhats the difference between cvs update and cvs up -dP?
00:55:28linuxstb-d downloads new directories, and -P deletes (prunes) empty directories.
00:55:50linuxstb(I think)
00:58:01XavierGrOkay now another question: The fm preset patch uses the /.rockbox/presets/ directory. But by default there is no such directory. Do I have to change a file to add that folder, or make the program to check for the folder then create?
00:59:24linuxstbI think you should use the tools/buildzip.pl script to create it.
00:59:36linuxstbI don't know whether it is necessary to double-check in your program as well.
01:00
01:00:10linuxstb(see the mkdir lines already in buildzip.pl)
01:00:52XavierGrHmm ok
01:01:53linuxstbBut thinking about it, I'm not sure if a zip file can contain an empty directory though.
01:02:25XavierGrI tried firefly's remote patch. When I plug in the remote and then scroll the presets there is a lag when I release the button (scrolling continues a little more) without the remote response is good.
01:02:46XavierGrIs that normal, does the remote code (all those ifdefs) make the code slower?
01:03:02rasherthe ifdefs are gone by the time the code gets compiled
01:03:29XavierGrso what you think about the leag with the remote?
01:03:42linuxstbBut Rockbox does more work (probably double the work) when updating two screens at the same time. I haven't tried the patch though.
01:05:18linuxstbOr did I misunderstand? Is anything being displayed on the remote?
01:05:29XavierGrstrange it will not lag when scrolling in filetree. Also the remote code will not render the fm screen. Only the buttons are active.
01:05:38XavierGrmaybe there is a conflict with my patch.
01:06:17XavierGrBecause I remember that the patch supports fm radio too.
01:07:09XavierGrAny news from Slasheri and his dircache patch?
01:08:19rasherhe put out a "final test" this evening
01:08:32XavierGrand? :x
01:14:11***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
01:15:58XavierGris there a special function to create folders? I should check the context menu. If someone remembers shoot.
01:16:43rashermkdir I'd assume
01:17:33linuxstbYes: mkdir("dirname",0) - 0 is the mode, which I think Rockbox ignores. It's there for POSIX compliance.
01:18:36linuxstbThere's an example in onplay.c
01:19:12preglowanyone heard anymore from the faad guy?
01:20:34linuxstbfuzzie: Are you around?
01:20:53fuzzieOh. rasher got it running on a h120, but had logic problems. I haven't had time [or been too lazy] to work on it much this week, I guess it'll be tomorrow.
01:21:11preglowlaziness is a real problem
01:21:20preglowwhat do you mean by logic problems, btw?
01:21:22fuzzie(logic problems meaning 'it failed an error check on the second packet')
01:21:27preglowahh
01:21:37preglowwhat compiler did you end up using?
01:21:43fuzzie4.0.2 without optimisations
01:21:46preglowahh
01:21:55preglow4.0.2 fixed all ICEs?
01:22:01fuzzieindeed
01:22:09preglownice
01:22:11rasherOn -O0 at least
01:22:19XavierGrwhats the policy when a line passes 80 columns? I mean okay I will hit enter and change line but is there any need into aligning the line in a specific way?
01:22:23rasherO2 still gave errors
01:22:25fuzzieIt might work with optimisations, I don't know if it was tested with optimisations after we worked out the problem was overflowing the stack..
01:22:30preglow-O0 doesn't exactly cut it, though
01:22:37rasherfuzzie: Maybe not
01:22:41preglowfuzzie: oh, so there's still that
01:22:45linuxstbYou should try undoing the changes I made to fix the ICEs. Maybe I added some bugs when doing that.
01:22:48preglowfuzzie: do you know how much stack it requires now?
01:22:55fuzzielinuxstb: your diff looks fine
01:23:08fuzzieI made some changes to cut down the stack usage, just haven't tried them on the hardware.
01:23:32rasherfuzzie: shoot
01:23:39preglowyou guys rocks, i would never have bothered battling ICEs and too much stack usage to get it working
01:23:42fuzzieIt's stupid stuff, allocating a bunch of 2kb buffers on the stack.
01:27:37 Quit Moos ("Glory to Rockbox")
01:34:32rasherAt least -O1 works
01:34:35*rasher tries O2
01:34:50rasherwell, "works" - it works as much as O0 does
01:34:53XavierGrwhat are you working?
01:34:57rasherwhich is to say, not a whole damn lot
01:36:14rasherXavierGr: AAC support. Or, I'm just testing.
01:36:45rasherokay, -O2 compiles and runs as well
01:36:47rasherthat's good news
01:36:52preglowindeed
01:36:52preglowvery
01:36:59XavierGrthe iriver target is trully going to be what we call "Multi-codec Jukebox"!!
01:37:31preglowindeed
01:37:37linuxstb:) Just WMA left if fuzzie succeeds.
01:37:43preglowhahaha
01:37:47preglowand good luck to whoever starts that
01:37:51preglowbest wishes, etc
01:37:52fuzzie*shudder*
01:37:54linuxstbPlus Realaudio....
01:38:07preglowno, no, you're going too far!
01:38:09linuxstbTime for some serious reverse-engineering.
01:38:16linuxstbOh, and ATRAC....
01:38:17XavierGrIs fuzzie going to add WMA support or you say this as a joke?
01:38:29preglowATRAC isn't _that_ bad, at least i know how it works
01:38:39preglowwhich is more than i can say about all the different incarnations of realaudio
01:38:43linuxstbXavierGr: No - I meant that if fuzzie succeeds with AAC, then WMA is the only major codec missing.
01:39:05linuxstbWell, ATRAC is one incarnation of realaudio - so you know one.
01:39:14fuzzieI assume someone is working on speex. :)
01:39:24XavierGrI wish Midi could be done.
01:39:27preglowhmm, yeah, but i don't think some realaudio codecs look much like aatrac
01:39:27fuzzieAnd quite a lot of the modern realaudio streams contain AAC, that's two.
01:39:39fuzzieit's the old ones which are a pain
01:39:46preglowi don't think atrac scales good to low bitrates, like some RAs do
01:40:06fuzzieis it possible to build the toolchain with C++ enabled?
01:40:11preglowsure
01:40:14preglowbut try to avoid it
01:40:20linuxstbwww.justconcerts.ca offers live concerts in 352kbps realaudio ATRAC if you want some test streams....
01:40:26preglowthe older rockbox boys aren't very fond of c++, and it's best to avoid it
01:40:30fuzziejust wondering about other file formats I'd like support for
01:40:42rasher(sid!)
01:40:48fuzzieexactly
01:40:54preglowfuzzie: if you get it working, you'd need to avoid tons of the c++ bells and whisltes like exception handling and rtti
01:40:59preglowfuzzie: apart from that, it might work well
01:41:16fuzziewell, my thinking was it'd be much easier to rip that out of existing code than to rewrite it
01:41:23XavierGris there a function to check if there is a directory or should I leave it to create every time the radio starts?
01:41:23preglowindeed
01:41:28preglowand i'm all for it
01:41:35XavierGrsorry for the storm of questions.
01:42:18preglowmost codecs i've seen use very basic c++
01:42:21preglowso might work good
01:42:23linuxstbXavierGr: "opendir" I think.
01:42:33preglowjust avoid the standard libraries
01:42:53preglowif so they can be called
01:43:02preglowmostly iostream, i guess
01:44:24linuxstbDoes anyone know if it's possible to use "dd" to write directly to a disk partition in Cygwin?
01:44:27fuzziemy old wish for c++ was for modplug, but it seems DUMB is just as accurate, if a little slower
01:44:30preglowthe lack of operator "new" might also be something of an obstacle
01:44:31preglow...
01:45:02preglowfuzzie: well, modplug isn't very accurate, last time i checked
01:45:12fuzzieit's a lot more accurate than mikmod
01:45:14preglowmy standards might be just a little high, though
01:45:17fuzziewhich I assumed was the only alternative
01:45:24preglowi'm used to playing music with the trackers themselves
01:45:41rasherAh, faad now running with the normal stacksize
01:45:46preglowrasher: !!!
01:45:49fuzzieunfortunately, porting them isn't something I think is going to happen :-)
01:45:58fuzzierasher: oh, good, so it was those
01:46:04rasherpreglow: say that to fuzzie
01:46:11rasherI just tested the changes
01:46:15preglowfuzzie: pleeeease, all you need to have fasttracker 2 running is a pascal compiler and the source code!
01:47:01preglowi haven't touched pascal in over ten years, god be praised
01:47:19*preglow suddenly realizes he's old
01:47:23fuzzieI still do maintenance on some oold Delphi stuff.
01:47:43fuzzieThankfully any pre-Delphi pascal I was responsible for has long since died.
01:47:53preglowlast pascal i used was turbo pascal 8
01:47:56preglowehh, 7
01:48:06preglowthe first Real programming language i learnt
01:48:09*linuxstb too
01:48:37preglowonly thing i touched before that was batch files, basic and the very occasional assembly
01:49:18*rasher proddled around some outdated COMAL80 in school
01:49:27rasherlord knows what it was doing there
01:49:33*preglow pats rasher
01:49:49rasherIt was pretty much BASIC, I think
01:50:05preglowi've never heard of it before
01:50:16rasherAh, it was created in Denmark, figures.
01:50:23rasherhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COMAL
01:50:35fuzziethe DUMB guy seems to have a 'if this doesn't produce correct output, tell me so bi can fix the bug' thing on his page
01:50:39fuzziewhich sounds hopeful.
01:50:42*preglow misses denmark and it's beer selection
01:51:45*rasher directs preglow at alt.possessive.its.has.no.apostrophe
01:51:59preglowrasher: i know, i just can't stand correcting myself all the time
01:52:40*linuxstb remembers that "its" is a word like "his"
01:52:41preglowi should know, half of my time is spent correcting norwegians when they use apostrophes everywhere
01:52:45rasherI don't really care, I just suddenly remembered that group
01:55:37preglowdon't know if i care much either, but with 90% of the norwegian population being technically illiterate, i tend to be annoyed
01:55:50preglowand that _is_ a real newsgroupt? :P
01:56:00rasherIt is
01:56:02preglowhahah
01:57:04rasherwith recent posts, no less
01:57:15preglowi should subscribe
01:57:57preglowfuzzie: what exactly did you do to get rid of the excessive stack usage
01:58:27fuzziemade some 20kb structures static
01:58:50preglowany idea if it can still decode realtime?
01:59:25fuzziei don't think there's any chance of it decoding realtime without optimisations, but we haven't gotten anything working past the second frame yet
02:00
02:00:38fuzzieit doesn't seem to use much of those structures for 'normal' decoding
02:00:56fuzzieI might end up having to split them, some of them on the stack (and hence in IRAM, presumably), and others not
02:01:04preglowone would think aac was designed with embedded implementations in mind
02:01:16fuzziefaad was definitely not, alas
02:01:19rashernot this implementation...
02:01:29preglowi wonder what the chances of codecs getting more than 48kb iram is :P
02:01:46rasherX5.
02:01:53preglowthat's another problem
02:02:11rasherYeah, that should be... interesting
02:02:13preglow1. i haven't got one 2. how to handle one device having more iram than another
02:03:50preglowIDATA_ATTR and IDATA_NIFTY_EXTRA_ATTR
02:05:27fuzzieoh.
02:05:54fuzzieit looks like they have got this running on /some/ embedded device
02:06:04preglowoh well
02:06:05fuzziebecause it has a 'circumvent memory alignment errors on ARM' comment
02:06:22preglowit didn't much look like libmad was going to run on h1x0 when we ported it either...
02:07:23linuxstbAny idea how a 75MHz ARM will compare to the 120MHz Coldfile?
02:07:35preglowhmm
02:07:48linuxstbThe iPod does have two of them of course...
02:07:56preglowi expect the coldfire to be somewhat stronger, given proper emac usage
02:08:42linuxstbBut I think it will be fine with the codecs running on the COP, and the DSP and everything else on the main CPU.
02:08:45preglowi'd expect the arm to be somewhat faster per clock, but then again, i'm as far from an expert as they come
02:10:14preglowhaving dsp on the second processor is a pretty good idea
02:10:46preglowat least porting for an arm is easier
02:10:58preglowthe accumulator unit is fully 64 bit and not hidden from gcc's view
02:11:41preglowlinuxstb: the portalplayer propaganda data actually gives me the impressions they've got some separate mac unit going, you know anything about that?=
02:12:05linuxstbNope, no idea. I haven't got that far yet.
02:14:02linuxstbSpeaking of the iPod, I still haven't got used to the fact that there is no STOP button on the iPod - all you can do is pause, or skip to the end of the current playlist.
02:14:26linuxstbUnless I just haven't found it.
02:14:39preglowno stop button i know of
02:15:03preglowbut then again, on rockbox there's not THAT much of a difference either
02:15:08preglowone takes you out of the wps, the other doesn't
02:15:17preglowit resumes anyway
02:15:52linuxstbApple's approach does make a little sense - why do you need stop/resume as well as pause/unpause ?
02:16:03preglowexactly
02:16:18preglowcurrently, stop flushed the audio buffer on rockbox, i _think_
02:16:22preglowdoesn't make much sense
02:16:26linuxstbBut it's still odd not to have a stop button.
02:16:34preglowand if that's fixed, there's not much of a difference anymore

02:28:11preglowsomeone brave should just try the helix aac decoder for fun :P
02:28:19preglowthey claim it's good on embedded cpus
02:28:38rasherYou'd just be tainted
02:28:47preglowi feel dirty for mentioning it
02:29:07fuzzieit seems like such a wasted effort
02:29:09fuzziegiven the license
02:29:15preglowyes, indeed
02:29:32fuzziei would have definitely tried it first, otherwise
02:30:03linuxstb_Are the AAC specs public?
02:30:18fuzziei believe so
02:30:28preglowi sincerely doubt it
02:30:28linuxstb_Then write your own decoder... :)
02:30:36preglowif the mpeg specs are any indication
02:30:46preglowpublic, but you've gotta pay
02:30:59fuzzie"A copy of the MPEG-4 Audio standard can be purchased from the ISO online store (search for "14496-3")."
02:31:02fuzzie*rolls eyes*
02:31:15*preglow rests his case
02:31:18linuxstb_But I'm sure there's an iso14496-3.pdf file in google somewhere....
02:31:57fuzzieyes, i'm sure it wouldn't be a big problem to obtain
02:32:41preglowno, but you'd be hard pressed to make it seem a legitimate open development process...
02:33:17linuxstb_But how much does the standard cost?
02:33:19fuzziejust throw it out onto the web as GPL anonymously and cover your tracks well. :-)
02:33:46preglowlinuxstb: it's not a prohivitely high cost, afaik

02:39:11linuxstb_Maybe we need to try and think of an alternative way to measure codec speed.
02:40:02*fuzzie was wondering how codec speed would be measured
02:40:05preglowproblem is it wouldnt be very hard
02:40:27preglowit's just that i can't be bothered to learn how all that playback code works
02:40:36preglowi don't have much time to code as it is
02:43:11fuzziethe AAC spec claims that 10 MIPS is sufficient for decoding, interestingly
02:43:18preglowfuzzie: in the olden days we had xxx2wav plugins that stressed the codecs as fast they could go, then measured how fast they ran compared to realtime
02:43:49preglowfuzzie: yes, and freescale has got a decoder that can deocde mp3s at about 20 mhz, we just can't be bothered to write an mp3 decoder in pure asm
02:44:17fuzziejust nice to know it's *possible* :)
02:44:21preglowhaha, sure
02:44:40preglowalmost anything is possible in 140mhz if you're persistent enough
02:47:02rasherIf you hadn't figured it out, 14496 pdf is an incredibly effective term to google for
02:47:13rasher(and if you're interested, of course)
02:50:52XavierGrwhat MIPS stands for? Is it a CPU power metric system?
02:51:00preglowmillion instructions per second
02:51:35preglowmilion, even
02:51:46preglowno, million :/
02:52:04preglowsuffice it to say 10 mips isn't much for us
02:52:26linuxstb_Does it mention the RAM requirements?
02:53:00fuzzieabout 9kb 'words'
02:53:11fuzzieso, presumably 36kb
02:54:10linuxstb_So the faad authors didn't work very hard then.
02:54:31preglowthey usually don't
02:54:40preglowlibmad is a pretty well-behaved codec in this regard
02:55:00fuzziewell, i assume the target platform for faad is a machine capable of running Nero :)

08:42:49Slasherino, that doesn't matter where the patch is
08:43:12Slasheribut you have to be in the target directory where you want to apply the patch
08:43:31random_manok well this is in the guide
08:43:31random_man Back in the DevKit window, go to the directory containing the patch
08:44:21random_man Now you are in the sim directory. Create the make file as usual using rbconf but select (S)imulator build instead of (N)normal build, and then (w)in32
08:44:22random_manok now im trying to make simulator and i am this far. how do i do this part ?

08:47:53Slasherithen you can type it there (cat something.patch | patch -p0 (or -p1 if -p0 doesn't work at all))
08:48:27random_manso i want to be where the source code is right?
08:48:33Slasheriyes
08:49:20random_manwhich should be in rockbox-bleeding folder right?
08:49:48Slasherihmm, i recommend using cvs to check out the latest source code

08:51:43Slasherioh.. run cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@www.rockbox.org:/cvsroot/rockbox co rockbox-devel instead of the previous command i told you
08:52:24random_manok doing that now

09:28:54 Nick Vld0man is now known as Vladoman (n=Vladoman@p54A7E8D5.dip.t-dialin.net)
09:49:19amiconnSlasheri: This routine is really short on registers, and the developer builds don't use -fomit-frame-pointer
09:49:50amiconn...meaning that the compiler needs an addtional address register besides the stack pointer
09:50:06amiconn...and the routine doesn't leave such additional register
09:50:12Slasheriah, interesting
09:50:45amiconnIf you add -fomit-frame-pointer to the GCCOPTS lone in the Makefile, it should work
09:51:18amiconnI found a register for possible re-use, so it should be fixable.
09:51:31amiconnCan't do that atm because I have more changes pending

09:55:27Slasherihmm, ok
09:55:40amiconnFor logf() builds it's definitely unnecessary to have frame pointers
09:56:02amiconnI had to disable that too when doing some logf() work on archos
09:56:23amiconnThe frame pointers increased the code size beyond the 200KB barrier...

12:18:53ep0chheh yeah, i posted a comment saying come and join us :)
12:18:54rasherthe whole thing
12:19:23Bagderhe obviously already knows about us as he's basig his work on our bootloader ;-)
12:19:44ep0chwhy do you think it's odd?
12:20:11rasherIt sounds like he's not using much of the information available from Rockbox
12:20:36Bagderyes, it seems he likes to start from scratch while still using code from us
12:20:37rasherhttp://kaizers.no/articles/4/10/cd3-1.jpe <−− ghey
12:20:49BagderI find that very odd too
12:20:53rasherYeah
12:20:58pengoit's odd because someone trying to be that hardcore should have gotten the ihp120's silver edition rather than the black
12:20:59rasheralso, that url was a mis-send.

12:28:19amiconnNow, who wants to be the first in documenting the grayscale plugins with screenshots? ;)
12:28:50amiconnThe screendump now hooks into the core, so grayscale screendump works the same way as ordinary screendump
12:29:08amiconn...just the BMPs are a little larger
12:32:36rasherBagder: had any time to look at the bleeding edge builds being.. "lacking"?
12:35:05ep0chre blogspot: well it's just a hobby for him on how to learn, so it's not really that odd, using rockbox would be cheating ;)
12:35:30Bagderno, not yet
12:35:40Bagderrasher: you know any specific files that are missing?
12:36:15rasherBagder: at least all of apps/codecs/libmad/* EXCEPT for the all-caps README, COPYING and two others
12:36:22amiconnBagder: The build time estimation is off, as always...
12:36:40Bagder"as always" ?
12:36:54amiconnyes
12:37:11amiconnWhenever I commit something, it takes longer than the estimation says
12:38:07Slasherithat's true.. maybe the estimation timer should save the previous compilation and and use that for the estimation
12:38:17Bagderit does
12:38:21Slasherihmm, weird
12:38:23Bagderor rather, it saves the 4 latest
12:39:02Slasherimaybe there is a bug in the algorithm
12:39:11rasherMaybe it's just a clock-issue?
12:39:27Bagderits not my #1 issue
12:39:29rasherMake it say "in x minutes" instead?
12:39:49amiconnEeek, I broke the player builds
12:40:04Bagderrasher: then it would have to repeatedly update it until done

12:44:48rasheronly admins
12:44:54ep0chthat'll do
12:48:12BagderI think the reason for the low estimate is the seconds being chopped off
12:48:32Bagderand not rounded to nearest minute
12:49:32BagderI added seconds now to see if it this is it
12:49:32amiconnHmm. This time the estimate was ~13 minutes, but building took 20 minutes

13:10:27ep0chi think its more down to disk spinup and seek time than dir size
13:10:58rasherCertainly.
13:11:25ep0chwhich is why i'd like a not so memory hungy dyamic cache
13:12:50ep0chjust reserve about 8k to cache where you've been and you get best of both worlds
13:13:00muesli-amiconn will there be grayscale support for the remote as well?
13:13:06rasherNo.
13:13:33rasheroh wait, don't mind me. I don't know.
13:13:45 Quit random_man ("CGI:IRC (Ping timeout)")
13:13:56rasherep0ch: but then you'd still have to cache quite often
13:14:11ep0ch??
13:14:30***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
13:14:38rasherI don't see how it'd work
13:14:45Slasheriep0ch: that would need the disk constantly spinning while browsing -> it will be battery hungry then
13:14:46rasherif I go browsing artists
13:15:00amiconnmuesli-: It should be technically possible, but I don't think it would make sense
13:15:09rasherI'd constantly hit uncached dirs
13:15:09ep0chyes but from a user experience point of view it will be quicker
13:15:27rasherBut pointless
13:15:31ep0chand regarding the battery, the disk will have to spin up anyway as the user is most likely going to select a new tune
13:15:32muesli-amiconn we would love it ;)
13:15:42amiconnWhat for?
13:15:54rashersince having everything cached isn't really a problem, memory-wise
13:15:59rasherep0ch: not really
13:16:06amiconnThe remote lcd is so tiny, especially compared to the main lcd
13:16:11muesli-its just eye candy
13:16:23rasherep0ch: building a playlist while listening to one song wouldn't require any disk spinup
13:16:39ep0chwhat about if you need to support 200 gig hard disks in the future, you dont wanna cache the whole lot
13:16:45ep0chrasher: true
13:17:34rasherThen maybe a limited cache will be implemented, but I'm guessing RAM would be increased as well in that case, I see no reason to do it for the irivers
13:18:13amiconnrasher: In fact a lazy cache in the browser can coexist with a full cache like Slasheri's
13:18:25Slasheri200 GB -> could be something like 2 MB cache -> in theory no problem with iriver
13:18:34Slasheriamiconn: yes
13:18:40amiconnThen you'd get the benefit of the lazy cache without needing additional ram, and if you want you can enable the full cache
13:19:24amiconnSlasheri: I think the cache ram depends on the number of files, not on the disk size

13:19:37Slasheriin my opinion the iriver ram is so large that reducing it a few megabytes shouldn't affect much (if at all) battery life
13:19:57amiconnI think I would get into trouble as soon as someone gets 'dumb' up & running
13:20:10amiconn>20000 mods...
13:20:10ep0chheh
13:20:11rasherOr sid.. :-O
13:20:12XavierGrare you discussing about the dircache?
13:20:35Slasheriamiconn: of course, but i just made some estimeta at the 200 GB disk would have 10x much files 20 GB disk have.. But true, i think so large disk would get filled with bigger (> 1 GB files)..
13:21:31SlasheriXavierGr: at the moment, yes :)
13:22:15XavierGrGreat! How you patch is going?
13:22:20XavierGr^your
13:22:37SlasheriXavierGr: should be ready for commit. I will just give linus a try before that
13:22:39ep0chheh sid collection is currently at over 30,000
13:23:19Slasheriwe could have some compression for the cache in future so having a large sid collection may work also
13:23:37*XavierGr goes to read the logs
13:23:49rasherSlasheri: are you caching full paths?
13:23:55rasheror "these files are in this dir" things
13:24:01Slasherirasher: no, only the last filename part
13:24:04Slasheriyep
13:24:06ep0chand what gets cached? all files or just supported?
13:24:14Slasheriit's a dynamic linked list
13:24:24Slasheriall files
13:24:49ep0chso i could put the sid collection on when i have time and see how big the cache is :s
13:25:07ep0chi think my ihp will die again if i do though
13:25:16Paul_The_NerdDid you eventually decide just to have it build every boot?
13:25:58SlasheriPaul_The_Nerd: yes, but the building is fast and transparent (it does not affect the bootup time)
13:26:17XavierGrHow fast?
13:26:25SlasheriXavierGr: just try out =)
13:26:26ghode|afkis there a build with dirache ver 2 floating around?
13:26:39Slasheriit depends how much there are files on the disk
13:26:44ep0chfor me about 4 seconds with a full 20 gb
13:26:50ep0chnot done a file count
13:27:21ep0chmake that a full 18.5 gb ;)
13:27:23Paul_The_NerdI honestly wouldn't have cared whether it was transparent anyway, as long as it was faster than iRiver, and whatever behaviour it had was consistent.

14:05:42XavierGrBecause I think it is too much to have it so lon into screen.
14:06:07XavierGrBetter make it HZ or if you find it too little HZ*2
14:07:04XavierGrMy god you have set it to 4 seconds!! I think 2 is most suitable.

14:31:33solexx_Would it (theoretically) be possible to use grayscale graphics in the wps?
14:32:18linuxstbsolexx_: I don't see why not - the LCD is running in greyscale mode (4 shades).
14:33:11Paul_The_NerdOoh... grayscale text could look really nice.
14:33:45linuxstbIf that was added, it would be nice to start thinking about colour support (for the H300).
14:33:49Paul_The_NerdRather... I think it would.
14:34:12Paul_The_NerdY'know... Track,title, album in black. Playlist name, and position, and other "less important information" in the darker gray.
14:34:35Paul_The_NerdAt least, that'd be *my* wps.

14:35:07solexx_how many shades are there (without dithering or sth like that)?
14:35:21solexx_nevermind
14:35:24Paul_The_NerdThere's black, white, and two grays natively if I recall.
14:35:58solexx_that's great. but you can't use 2bit bitmaps now, correct?
14:36:09Paul_The_NerdI don't believe so.
14:36:22*Paul_The_Nerd wouldn't know for sure.
14:37:34linuxstbLooking at the WPS code , it seems to use the lcd_mono_bitmap function to draw images. So the answer would appear to be no.
14:38:39solexx_what a waste!
14:38:46Paul_The_NerdMy big gripe with the WPS is actually a really minor irritation.
14:39:10solexx_?
14:39:20Paul_The_NerdDrives me nuts that when the text scrolls, it doesn't clip where the string initially begins. So you end up with the first character wandering to the left of where you put it.
14:39:54solexx_never tried that
14:40:13solexx_my wps is a little bit broken atm anyway
14:40:19Paul_The_NerdI'm using a modification of the JamesGao wps from... well... somewhere
14:41:00Paul_The_NerdAnyway, it has a nice CD icon and then "album" and a music note and then "track" and a head and then "artist" (one line for each tag) and the text wanders *over* the icons. Heh.
14:41:10Paul_The_NerdThe icons being part of one large background .bmp
14:42:44solexx_cool, rasher has a backup of the wps gallery with my old wps!
14:42:45_FireFly_currently a line scrolls fully afaik
14:42:52_FireFly_in wps
14:42:56Paul_The_NerdYeah, that's what I figured.
14:43:16Paul_The_NerdIt'd be nice if elements scrolled within their own bounds, but that'd require you to be able to set a width.

14:43:33 Quit XavierGr ()
14:43:42Paul_The_NerdI mean, what do you do if you put artist and album on a line, and the one on the left needs to scroll but the one on the right wouldn't?
14:44:00Paul_The_NerdYou'd have to be able to set an arbitrary number of characters as a length of space reserved for each thing.
14:44:07Paul_The_NerdIt'd get complex.
14:44:28Paul_The_NerdAnd as I said "minor irritation"
14:53:01solexx_did anybody ever have strange characters at the end of line in the wps?
14:56:20solexx_how they show up depends on the font
14:56:39solexx_with helvetica, i get these nice squares
14:56:40Paul_The_NerdI have not
14:56:54Paul_The_NerdThough I did have an issue where I had to insert additional endlines.
14:56:59Paul_The_NerdIt seemed to ignore at least one of them

15:09:33linuxstbI think either are accepted.
15:10:31solexx_hm...
15:13:26amiconnPaul_The_Nerd: Setting an element width in characters would indeed be complex, and not helpful at all, as we support proportional fonts
15:13:43amiconnWe need pixel positioning, and scrolling boxes instead of scrolling lines
15:14:13Paul_The_NerdThat's true.
15:14:32***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
15:14:34Paul_The_NerdBlasted proportional fonts, always making things complicated.
15:15:00amiconnNah, I'd rather live without scrolling boxes than without proportional fonts
15:15:49 Quit muesli-_ (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
15:15:55Paul_The_NerdIn something where the only real means of positional formatting are endlines and spaces, proportional width actually seems kinda out of place to me at least.
15:16:13amiconnI have some ideas regarding scrolling boxes (and font colours/ styles), but it's not exactly top prio for me
15:16:27amiconn(but certainly higher than remote support :) )
15:17:05Paul_The_NerdI think my biggest wish list for WPS would be definable fonts.
15:17:55linuxstbamiconn: What are your thoughts about colour support generally? Are you thinking that we should have a "low-depth" (e.g. 4bpp or 8bpp) colour mode for general Rockbox use, as well as a full-colour mode?
15:17:56amiconnDifferent fonts will definitely complicate things, but pixel-wise positioning will make things easier
15:18:08amiconnlinuxstb: No
15:18:24*linuxstb is planning to work on the iPod LCD driver this weekend
15:18:35Paul_The_NerdI wouldn't even want multiple fonts per WPS, just the ability to set the font within it. Heh.
15:18:43 Nick StrathAFK is now known as Strath (n=mike@dpc674681214.direcpc.com)
15:18:54linuxstbamiconn: Sorry, I thought you suggested that a few days ago. I must have misunderstood.
15:18:58amiconnPalette modes tend to complicate things, so I'd rather use full-colour all the time
15:19:08amiconnlinuxstb: That was Linus iirc
15:19:21linuxstbOK, sorry for the confusion.
15:19:30amiconnFull colour means 16 bit for ipod, correct?
15:19:34amiconn(5-6-5)
15:19:38linuxstbYes - RGB565
15:19:59linuxstbData is written in 32-bit words for two adjacent (in x-direction) pixels.
15:20:10amiconnThat's good
15:20:36linuxstbI've no idea how the 18-bit H300 LCD will operate. That gives me a headache thinking about it.
15:20:41amiconnFramebuffer layout will be simple: 2 bytes/pixel, natural order
15:20:55amiconn(ipod, and iAudio M5 - 16bit)
15:21:20amiconnFor H3x0, we could either limit ourselves to 16 bit, then it becomes the same as ipod/iAudio
15:21:32amiconnFor 18bit we'll need 3 bytes per pixel
15:21:46amiconnSomewhat odd, but not too bad
15:23:17solexx_hm. these characters I see are really strange
15:23:22amiconnSome things in lcd.h and other places are already somewhat prepared for colour support
15:23:30Paul_The_NerdIs there a noticeable difference in 16 and 18 bit?
15:23:42solexx_the viewer plugin doesn't display them, but when i enable the wps i can see them for a short time
15:23:50solexx_and they end up in the wps
15:24:09solexx_i tried to use a hex editor to spot them, but i can't find them
15:24:33Paul_The_NerdWhat kinds of lines are they on?
15:24:37Paul_The_NerdLike, data taken from tags?
15:24:46solexx_an image declaration
15:24:58solexx_the first one on the first line
15:25:06solexx_I already tried to retype it
15:25:15pengo16 bit = 65536 colours, 18 bit = 262144
15:25:38solexx_it looks like "%x|a|gfx/jrschulz.bmp|1|1|" and then two boxes behind it
15:26:18Paul_The_NerdPengo: I'm aware of the mathematical difference. I rather meant that the loss in color depth, would it be particularly noticeable?
15:26:23solexx_another font show something which looks like a "V" and a "T"
15:26:30solexx_in one character
15:26:46Paul_The_NerdSo, wait, it doesn't show the image, but instead shows the actual declaration line?

15:39:38solexx_maybe the jrschulz.bmp is broken, since i had its %xl line at the top
15:39:46solexx_then deleted it and retyped it at the end

15:43:01solexx_should i out it online, too?

15:46:15HClsup
15:46:21solexx_I have the battery icon, then battery percentage followed by a "%" and then the boxes
15:46:29solexx_so yes
15:46:58Paul_The_NerdIt... almost seems like a font issue.
15:47:13Paul_The_NerdI've tried it with some of the original Rockbox fonts, and it displays fine.
15:47:35solexx_not really. rockbox-default shows spaces at the end
15:48:57solexx_the same with nimbus and chicago
15:48:58Paul_The_NerdYou mean whitespace after the battery%?
15:49:19solexx_yep
15:49:41solexx_the text should be right-aligned

17:32:43novimonthanks
17:35:19Paul_The_NerdHow much additional battery life did you get upgrading to a 2200 (like, percentage wise?)
17:36:32tucozaccording to some place I read, the standard battery will run for 16h. With a 1900mah you will be able to have the player running for 29h under the same circumstances.
17:37:01muesli-yepp
17:37:05tucozBut this was at dapshop or whatever it is called
17:37:10Paul_The_NerdWow... there's a lot of 3 ipod 2200 batteries up for US $15 (buy it now).
17:37:18muesli-juergen @dap-store tested it
17:37:27Paul_The_NerdBut... they say "no returns" like 500 times with warning that "we cannot test the batteries or insure they work"

17:41:58Paul_The_NerdThe play button on the remote. Is it different from the play button on the box itself? (I'm not talking about how they're handled now, just... can they be interpreted differently if someone wanted to?)
17:42:46_FireFly_yes as BUTTON_RC_ON for the play-button on the remote and BUTTON_ON for the main device
17:43:00_FireFly_so are the defines in button.h
17:43:31Paul_The_NerdAlright
17:44:26Paul_The_NerdSo, when the remote's finalized it'd be possible for say... one to retain control of the music/wps on the remote, even while, say, playing a game in a plugin?
