08:41:51Slasherinow committed the playlist item skipping fix
08:43:19Bger:))
09:00
09:07:55amiconnSlasheri: 3 remarks: (1) Shouldn't PLAYLIST_SEEK_MASK be 0x0FFFFFFF ? You just reserved one more bit, not 2.
09:08:11amiconn(2) Iiuc this code is used on all platforms, so archos now has 2 mechanisms to skip playlist entries
09:09:01amiconn(3) Your approach breaks an (esoteric) feature on Ondio
09:10:12SlasheriHmm :/ How it breaks Ondio?
09:10:25amiconnThe archos only keeps track of bad entries in the playback engine, but your approach marks the tracks as bad for the whole lifetime of the playlist
09:10:50amiconnHowever, if the playlist is repeated, an entry that was bad last time might no longer be bad....
09:10:56Slasheriamiconn: but archos could use that mechanism too..
09:11:15amiconn...in case the user plugged the missing MMC in the meantime
09:11:22Slasheriamiconn: Hmm, if i understood correctly, that info is not stored on disk?
09:11:29Slasherioh..
09:12:05amiconnI admit, this is somewhat esoteric, but I still like the archos meth
09:12:05SlasheriHmm, indeed.. That needs to be solved
09:12:08amiconn+od more
09:12:43amiconnIt's more dynamic ;)
09:13:34SlasheriHehe, but i can fix that new code if you think that is a proper way to implement it
09:14:00SlasheriI have thought the both ways and i found the playlist level more scalable
09:15:16Slasherioh yes, but archos doesn't even use it currently.. so at the moment there is no problems with that :)
09:15:58Slasherione good thing with that is that user can also see playlist entries marked as bad
09:17:15amiconnHmm.
09:17:43Slasherithe playlist viewer shows for example: 40. (ERR) some track if it's missing
09:18:20Slasheri(or playback code has found some problems with that track)
09:18:25amiconnWhy do you think the playlist level is more scalable?
09:19:20SlasheriHmm, because all units can use the same code and without thinking about the skipping in playback engine (which imho is better to be done in playlist)
09:21:35amiconnI don't think we will ever have more than two engines. In fact we should only have one at some point in the future
09:21:39Slasheriamiconn: yes, 0x0FFFFFFF is correct.. i will fix it
09:22:21amiconnThe marking in the pl viewer is a plus, I agree
09:22:34SlasheriBut still i think that job is playlist engine responsibility to give correct track entries to the playback enginge..
09:22:37amiconnbut an icon would be better than text for space considerations
09:22:47Slasheriyes, of course.. that can be changed later
09:23:01amiconn...especially on the good old player
09:30:17amiconnReplacing the standard 'note' icon with a broken one wouldn't require any additional space...
09:32:51Slasherihmm, that sounds good :)
09:34:19amiconnThe esoteric Ondio problem can probably be solved in a simple way
09:34:49amiconnIiuc, the marking happens on the fly, i.e. whenever the playback engine encounters a bad track?
09:34:58Slasheriyes
09:35:19amiconnAll that is needed is a 'repair all' function, that marks all bad entries as repaired
09:35:38amiconnThis would then be called whenever an MMC was plugged
09:35:55Slasherihmm, true :) that should be a simple fix
09:35:55amiconnThe function can be #ifdef HAVE_HOTSWAP
09:37:30Slasheriwould you like i implement that function? I think it's better if i don't touch the archos playback engine itself because i don't have a unit to test with

10:06:18XavierGrso any idea why rockbox gives wrong values for total track time?
10:06:48XavierGrSometimes it goes more than 1 minute
10:07:10XavierGrand Winamp shows this correctly, (mp3 alt present standard)
10:15:43***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
10:24:38BgerXavierGr maybe it's better to send the file to Slasheri for example ...
10:27:01XavierGrbut this happens with almost all my vbr files!
10:28:52Bgerwhat tool are you using for tagging etc ?
10:29:20XavierGrthe godfather for tagging, EAC or dbpowerAMP for ripping
10:30:37Bgeru know, i don't have rb-ed unit yet, so i can't tell anything ...
10:33:26Bgeris this problem only recent ?
10:34:22XavierGrI don't really know, and no one else has reported this.
10:35:32 Quit arkascha (Remote closed the connection)
10:36:30Bgerthen i suggest u to send one problematic .mp3 to slasheri...
10:36:36XavierGrsomeone said to try vbr fix, I should give it a try first, it is just weird that winamp shows the right timing (iriver fw too)
10:37:27Bgerhm
10:44:23XavierGrI just encountered a song where Winamp says that it lasts 2.36 and rockbox says 5.09!!!!
10:44:35Bgerwow :)
10:44:51Bgermaybe rb wants to play it twice :P
10:45:43XavierGrwtf?
10:46:12XavierGrI think that rockbox shows me the next track total time instead of the current!!!
10:46:42Bgeris your wps code correct ?
10:47:14XavierGrI will upload it to check it
10:48:08Bgeri'm not the right person to check it
10:48:41XavierGrwell I will post the link anyway if someone wants to check though I really doubt it is the wps to blame.

10:53:10LinusNXavierGr: do your vbr files have a correct vbr header?
10:53:38XavierGrI am not sure but both Winamp and iriver fw shoes them correctly
10:53:56LinusNcan you send me a file?
10:54:05XavierGrAlso it seems that rockbox shoes the timing from the previous track (not the next I though before)
10:54:11XavierGr^shows
10:54:17XavierGrsure
10:54:48XavierGrI will send you a 2 small to see if they swap timings.
10:55:12XavierGrI will send them to your mailbox.
10:55:17LinusNok
10:57:36XavierGrvery strange behaviour, I just made a playlist in rockbox with 2 non consequent (in the drive) files. The timings come from the previous file in my HD. Not even from the playlist...
10:57:37amiconnhi LinusN
10:58:01LinusNhi
10:58:02amiconnNo luck at all with the oldplayer lcd :(
10:58:07LinusN:-(
10:58:15XavierGrI should try with a clean build, I use the radio patch and jpeg file scroller so I doubt that they are to blame.
10:59:02LinusNXavierGr: does the same thing happen if you play a directory?
11:00
11:00:36XavierGryes it will always show the timings for the track before. (the first track will get the timing from an unknown file, I will search to see from where)

11:01:26XavierGrlatest
11:01:31amiconnLinusN: Btw, what was the problem with the build table?
11:01:46LinusNwas there a problem?
11:02:06LinusNwow
11:02:34LinusNi have no idea
11:02:58LinusNouch, disk full
11:03:19XavierGrhow much data in the disk?
11:03:57LinusNlots :-)
11:04:18XavierGrI can imagine....
11:04:20LinusNseems ok now though
11:08:05XavierGrnope, even with a clean build it will do this.

11:31:07FebsSlasheri, take a look at this thread: http://www.misticriver.net/showthread.php?t=30659
11:32:07LinusNXavierGr: how long is "A day without rain" on your player?
11:32:33LinusNXavierGr: sorry, how long is "Silver inches" on your player?
11:35:15XavierGr Linus: My player says 5.09
11:35:38LinusNmine says 2:29
11:35:59LinusNTempus vernum is 3:38 according to rockbox
11:36:03XavierGrwait a bit...
11:36:25LinusNthe weirdest thing of all is that vbrfix says that they aren't vbr files at all
11:36:37XavierGrwinamp says 2.25
11:36:56XavierGrand yes tempus vernum on rockbox says 3.38 to me too.
11:37:30XavierGrbut then it doesn't show the previous file... it is something else.
11:38:59XavierGr3.38 is the duration of the previous track on my player
11:39:10amiconnLinusN: Did you compare with rockbox on archos?
11:39:15LinusNnot yet
11:39:16XavierGrbut I sent you 2 files that are not in queue
11:39:26XavierGrso where that 3.38 came from?

11:41:06XavierGrHello ;)
11:41:24XavierGrto sum it up there are 2 songs:
11:41:36muesli-drastwuj XavierGr ;)
11:41:57XavierGr1) Tempus Vernum Rockbox: 3.38 Winamp: 2.25
11:42:30XavierGr2) Silver Inches Rockbox: 2.29 Winamp: 1.37
11:42:47XavierGrany idea why is this happening
11:43:37LinusNhmmm, seems to be a bug in the LAME header parsing
11:44:09XavierGrand why Winamp and the iriver fw show correct values
11:44:26XavierGror you mean a bug in rockbox
11:44:34LinusNbug in rockbox
11:44:52XavierGris it difficult to fix? Is it only on the iriver?
11:49:15LinusNyuck, the rockbox sim disables my key repeat
11:49:43LinusNamiconn: are the Info and Xing headers really compatible?
11:50:48amiconnAfaik they should.
11:51:20amiconn(but it wasn't me who added Info header processing)
11:52:50amiconnLinusN: The rockbox sim disables key repeat only if its window is active, and it should reenable it when leaving. If it crashes at exit, it can't do that...
11:54:01LinusNok, i see now that the parsing is correct
11:54:15amiconnThe x11 sim must disable key repeat because of the silly way key repeat works in x11
11:54:34amiconnOtherwise it would be impossible to correctly simulate rockbox key repeat
11:57:17LinusNXavierGr: is this a new bug?

14:36:44preglowand will anyone kill me if i set a lower bound on Q to 1?

14:37:58Bgeris it so difficult to change it later ?
14:38:00preglowit's no problem anyway, it's just for deciding on the fixed point format i have to use
14:38:07preglowdifficult no, but i'd rather just do it once, heh
14:38:17Bgerok, so it's not just a #define
14:38:21preglowno
14:38:53preglowi want to squeeze as much precision as i can from the processing, so i'll be designing the fixed point format pretty tightly

14:57:01preglowok, and how high Q ?
14:57:06preglowthirty something?
14:57:33Bger?
15:00
15:00:58preglowhow high do you want the Q factor to be able to go?
15:01:08preglow31 is a nice number :P
15:01:25Bgerreally, i have no idea
15:01:28XavierGrwhy not 30?
15:01:36Bgerwhy not 42 ?:P
15:01:39preglowbecause 31 is 2^5 - 1
15:03:11XavierGrI don't know about you, but I am annyed (strange habbit) to see even numbers as maximum. Except the 5.
15:03:14Moospreglow: feel free to do what you think is best ;-)
15:03:27preglowMoos: problem is i never use eq
15:03:41Moosah, is for us users
15:04:18XavierGr32 or 30 I think is good but not 31... :p
15:04:20Moosme with iriver fw, I used the ultra bass one :)
15:05:02Moospreglow: you hear flat sound?
15:05:10BgerXavierGr maybe it's good for us, but not for the math ...
15:05:18preglowMoos: yep
15:05:30Moosoki
15:06:34XavierGrBger I don't get it...it will define a maximum number whats the difference between 31 or 32?
15:06:48preglowbecause 31 is a nice max that fills out a long
15:06:54preglowif it's not 31, it has to be 63
15:06:58preglowif not that, 127
15:07:16preglowi can use other values as well, but these are the maximums, why limit myself to 30 when i can have 31 in the same number of bits?
15:07:18_FireFly_254 :)
15:07:22BgerXavierGr 5 bits give values from 0 to 2^5 - 1 = (0,31)
15:07:26Bgerunsigned
15:07:35preglowand btw, you will ALMOST have 32 if i chose 31
15:07:36XavierGrwait a sec we are talking about integers here or not?
15:07:39preglow31.9999934 or something
15:07:43preglowXavierGr: fixed point
15:07:45XavierGryou can define a 5 bit integer?
15:07:46preglowXavierGr: so yes, integers
15:07:57preglowXavierGr: i have to split an integer into two parts: integer and fractional part
15:08:05preglowXavierGr: i'm trying to decide how many bits to use for the integer part
15:08:38XavierGrthen do it 31 you persuaded me
15:08:48preglowthis will be easiy to change anyway
15:09:02XavierGrI thought we were talking only for integers which go ~65000
15:09:11preglowprimarily i just want input from people who have used eqs before and know whether they'll ever need more than 31 Q
15:09:30BgerXavierGr the iriver CPU doesn't have floating point, but has fixed point unit
15:10:45Bgerand u decide how many bits to use for the integer part and how many for the part after the decimal point
15:10:54Bgerin floating point arithmetic you have percision (for example 10 digits) and exponent
15:11:34Bgervery rough explanation, but...
15:11:56 Join muesli- [0] (i=muesli_t@hmln-d9b8efae.pool.mediaWays.net)
15:12:16muesli-re
15:12:22XavierGrI don't have experiance about this, but I thought that when you programm and declare a valuer you type: (unsigned or long,short) int x for integers and (unsigned) float x for decimal numbers
15:12:23_FireFly_hiho
15:12:39preglowXavierGr: nah, you can do fractional numbers with integers as well
15:12:47preglowXavierGr: just look up 'fixed point math' if you're interested
15:12:52XavierGrI understand what you say but whats the declaration process of this
15:12:59BgerXavierGr this is on lower level than C ..
15:13:04XavierGrok
15:13:07preglowyou just use ordinary long and int variables
15:13:09Bgerpreglow uses directly the EMAC unit
15:13:28XavierGrso preglow are you writting it into C or assembly?
15:13:32preglowand ordinary math operators +, *, etc
15:13:33preglowc
15:13:38Bgerhm, sorry then
15:13:42XavierGrso not C invloved?
15:13:47preglowi use just c
15:13:54preglowand i tiny, tiny bit of asm for when i use the emac unit
15:14:24XavierGrI am just weird to see the declaration of such numbers
15:15:00XavierGrsorry to bother you but what is the emac you always refer for optimizations?
15:15:03BgerXavierGr he just uses normal C integer types...
15:15:25BgerEnhanced Multiply & Accumulate Unit
15:15:48XavierGris it hardware?
15:15:49LinusNXavierGr: it's a special CPU unit that performs fast multiplication of (fixed point) numbers
15:15:57Bgerand addition (afaik)
15:15:58LinusNyes, it's hardware
15:16:04LinusNBger: correct
15:16:27Bgerand the GCC doesn't know about it, so to use it u must use coldfire assembly
15:16:34LinusNexactly
15:16:45preglowi'm working on the coefficient calculation at the moment, i wont get to use the emac much there
15:16:57XavierGrI see so this does faster calculations with numbers then
15:17:10Bgermultiply and addition mainly
15:17:12LinusNyes, specially designed for DSP functions
15:17:19preglowi've never done coef calculations in fixed point before, so i'm just trying things out
15:17:21Bgerit doesn't have devision
15:17:26Bgerdivision
15:18:27preglowno, but you can have 64 bit division in c anyway, via / and &
15:18:31preglowehh, / and %
15:18:41preglowi wont use those in innerloops :P
15:18:49Bgeryes, but this is sloow
15:19:30_FireFly_affaik can you make division and multiply through shifting
15:19:43Bgeronly by powers of 2 ?
15:20:18preglowyes
15:20:23preglowand that's not enough, i'm afraid
15:20:34_FireFly_ah ok
15:20:34preglowanyway, the eq inner loop will only use the emac
15:20:36preglownothing else
15:20:39XavierGris it true that iriver would be much more versatile if its CPU could handle floating point?
15:20:44preglowthis is coef calculation, and will happen very seldom
15:20:54LinusNXavierGr: sort of
15:20:58preglowXavierGr: you can do almost everything in fixed point, that you can do in floating point
15:21:02preglowXavierGr: it's just more cumbersome
15:21:13XavierGrbut with more tasks
15:21:19XavierGreach time
15:21:35XavierGrso to handle a float you must use more CPU time right?
15:21:38Bgerotoh it depends on the floating point unit realisation ... it can be very slow
15:21:51preglowmost modern fpus are very fast
15:22:02preglowbut require quite some silicon
15:22:13*Bger remembers the slow fpu of amd up to k7 ...
15:22:31preglowit's been quite a while since doing floating point math became faster than doing fixed point math on x86
15:22:38XavierGrwhy choose a non-float CPU in our days anyway? Then we could port more code without the concerns of floats.
15:22:52preglowalmost no embedded cpus have fpus because of the silicon issue
15:22:56preglowit takes up valuable space
15:22:57XavierGr:X
15:22:58LinusNXavierGr: price, die size and power consumption
15:23:08preglowwhat linus said :)
15:23:19XavierGrwow that much?
15:23:34LinusNbesides, floating point isn't always the best solution anyway
15:23:36BgerXavierGr they usually use DSP instead of fpu or i'm wrong
15:23:54preglowwell, yeah, in some cases
15:23:55LinusNBger: there are floating point dsp's too
15:24:08preglowin our case they just use the ordinary cpu integer math with a couple of MAC extensions
15:24:14XavierGryeah but in the wiki I always read: Floating point encoder so.... "next"
15:25:10preglowconverting a floating point project to fixed point requires a pretty experienced coder
15:25:11LinusNXavierGr: yes, that's because the coder didn't write it for embedded use
15:26:21XavierGrok now lets see other DAPS. Do you know one that has float CPU?
15:26:41preglownope
15:27:24preglownot even palm pcs have float cpus
15:27:53XavierGrand one last comment then, would it be better or worse to have such a cpu for rockbox and the project overall?
15:28:08Bgerit would be easier ...
15:28:16preglowbetter, sure
15:28:21preglowwe could port much stuff straight
15:28:26preglowand coding dsp would be easier, at least for me
15:28:36XavierGrbut in the battery aspect?
15:28:42preglowi have no idea
15:29:08XavierGra little worse or iPod efficiency! :P
15:31:46XavierGrLinus: What about the LAME header and the incorrect playing times? Did you found the bug?
15:33:47LinusNhad to take my daughter to the dentist after a nasty fall, so i had to stop debugging
15:34:06LinusNa very loose tooth
15:34:27Bgerbad:(
15:34:28preglowhow old is she?
15:34:49LinusNshe turned 3 today, it's her birthday
15:34:58XavierGrohh sorry to hear that, is she allright?
15:35:17Moosbadluck :(
15:35:18XavierGrHappy birthday to her, many and happy years to come!
15:35:20LinusNyeah, we'll see about the tooth, she'll probably lose it
15:35:47Bgerit's not such a big problem at this age ...
15:35:50LinusNbut she'll get new ones anyway after a few years
15:35:53preglowoh well, just make sure she doesn't repeat it when the new one arrives
15:35:59Bger:)
15:38:55preglowmy brother fell down a flight of stairs when he was a bit older, to slightly worse results
15:39:00preglowkids do tend to fall a lot
15:39:33Moosit's normal :)
15:40:02preglow_I_ fell down a flight of stairs _with_ my then 4 year old brother once, which rendered me quite shaken and dizzy, haha
15:40:18Moos:-)
15:40:19preglowand him yelling for more
15:40:52XavierGrhehe
15:42:11XavierGrdoes anyone thinks here that maybe the default fond for iriver is a little small? Though someparts of the code must be rewritten if the font size changes(text will not fit)
15:42:18preglowi think it's just right
15:43:04MoosI think so here
15:43:48XavierGrYeah but I bet that you use another for your preference. (just asking, not that it bothers me)
15:45:08preglowwhat do you mean? i use the default font, if that's what you're asking
15:45:35XavierGrseriously? wow you must have good sight!
15:45:37Mooshere, long time use default font, then neodore for the same font in bold, and now helvet one ;-)
15:46:25XavierGrI used a custom big one (6 lines maximum) but recently I changed again to chicago12
15:47:39Mooshere chicago doesn't work with french language
15:47:55XavierGrWhat can I say?
15:48:31XavierGrWhen Unicode patch is commited it would be much easier I think.
15:48:54Mooshehe maybe :)
15:49:03preglowXavierGr: moderately good sight, though it's starting to fail :/
15:49:09preglowmight even have to get glasses soon1
15:49:10preglow!!
15:49:31Moos:(
15:51:20preglowkind of a miracle it hasn't happened before now, considering how much time i've spent either looking at a screen or reading other material
15:51:34preglownot to mention all the video game playing i did in my younger days
15:51:49Moospreglow: did you tested neodore font?, same as defaut but in bold
15:52:03preglowcan't say i did, is it bundled with default rockbox?
15:52:26Moosyes in rockbox dir font
15:53:28preglownice enough, but like the default better
15:53:36preglowi used to use proportional as well
15:53:48Moosquestion of habbit ;)
16:00
16:05:44preglowdepends
16:05:59preglowi wouldn't want to use proportional in the gui, since i think a fixed width font looks better there
16:06:04preglowbut for the viewer, i prefer proportional

17:16:21TiMiDhow do you handle copyrights in rockbox code
17:16:43LinusNeach file has an author

17:17:18LinusNstays
17:18:04TiMiDI saw in several others open source projects that files have a list of persons wh worked on it
17:18:50TiMiDhere the problem is that in some of the new files I made I included big parts of code, but not from one peson, from several persons ...
17:19:18LinusNto be honest, we haven't cared much at all about copyright

17:22:40MoosLinus: doesn't think you it's could be best to give CVS acces to TiMiD (Kevin Ferrar) instead of "lost" your time to look at his multi diplay patch ... ?
17:23:18LinusNMoos: that's a way of viewing it, but it's not wasted time for me
17:23:29Moos:) sure
17:23:55LinusNthe thing is that we want to make sure that the coder in question does "the right thing" before we grant CVS access
17:24:09Moosindeed
17:24:32LinusNin this case it's only a matter of time before i give TiMiD cvs access

17:26:13LinusN1) Is this the way to do it, and how does it affect Rockbox as a whole?
17:26:30LinusN2) Does it break anything?
17:26:48TiMiDI would add 3) your daughter and your wife ;)
17:27:19muesli-some oz here?
17:27:36LinusNTiMiD: hehe
17:27:37TiMiDabout 2 I tested on the simulator on each plateforms and it was just working fine
17:28:12TiMiDabout 1 .. it's the only solution I found to reduce the code size while adding this multi-screen feature
17:28:33_FireFly_yepp my approach ha blown the code a little bit ;)
17:28:47_FireFly_s/ha/had
17:28:51TiMiD(even if i don't think we are gonna see 3-screened mp3 players soon)
17:29:07TiMiDbut if that was the case, the app code would be ready
17:29:16TiMiDwiththat aproach
17:30:05LinusNi think your code looks good (except for the looooong function names :-)
17:30:14Moosplus remote wasn't with first platforms, is it one other step for Rockbox
17:30:52TiMiDI changed that (the fn names)
17:31:06TiMiDshorte ones :)
17:31:39LinusNi'm not sure i like having all these gui_ files, though? any special reason that each widget is a separate file?
17:32:11TiMiDI want to put those filesin a separate directory
17:32:22LinusNnot a bad idea
17:33:14TiMiDI separated the code in small files to makeit more readable
17:33:27TiMiDsince these files are independant
17:33:39amiconnLinusN: Remember that we already talked about a similar approach for reducing the code size of the lcd drivers?
17:33:53amiconnToday, the lcd driver share quite some code
17:34:05TiMiD(when I see an 3000 lines code source, my first thought is to run away :D)
17:34:11LinusNamiconn: yes
17:34:27amiconn...which is therefore included twice for lcd-remote platforms (H1x0)
17:34:35TiMiDamiconn: I proposed that too if I can remember
17:34:36LinusNTiMiD: that's a valid reason imho
17:34:57TiMiDit's notonly the Hx0
17:35:06amiconnIt is for now
17:35:15amiconnMaybe other platforms in future
17:35:33TiMiDthe high level display access fn are the same for all playerswith graphic displays
17:35:56TiMiD(like "draw a line", "display a char" etc)
17:39:20amiconnYes, but they aren't included twice except on the H1x0
17:39:33TiMiDof course
17:39:39amiconnPlus, some of the optimised primitives work different
17:40:04 Quit _FireFly_ ("Leaving")
17:40:31TiMiDmaybe a single fin with #ifdef wuld be more efficient for these primitives

17:41:18TiMiDthat would avoid to be obliges to maintain as many fn asthere are models of screens when changing one thing to those functions
17:42:04TiMiDthat the main reason I see, beyon the fact that effectively it eats a little more memory on iriver when compiled
17:42:33amiconnAh yes, unifying the source is still an option even if the runtine fns will be different

17:57:17MoosRowan: with queue next, after played the file disapear at playlist playing
17:57:31amiconnOr rather, you can, but it needs to be compiled twice with different #ifdefs selected
17:58:00amiconn...and to do this within one file, you need to include it from 2 different other files
17:58:05TiMiDfor fn like draw line, the only thing that change is the screen size
17:58:16TiMiDthat's not a big deal
17:58:23amiconnThe line drawing isn't the problem. The optimised primitives are

18:01:42preglowis there some fixed point rule i don't know about that explains the implicit left shift in an emac multiplication?

18:04:37amiconnAfaiu, fractional mode operates on numbers in th [-1..+1) range. The left shift by 1 ensures a correct result
18:04:54preglowyes, it does
18:05:13preglowi just wonder why, and if this is something that applies too all signed fixed point muls
18:05:29preglowi'm no fixed point expert, unfortunately
18:06:37]RowaN[thanks linus,moos
18:06:57amiconnIt's quite simple, imho. Multiplying 2 fixed point numbers is the same as multiplying two integers followed by a shift
18:07:36]RowaN[i have an ihp120, but my neighbour has an archos.. is there a similar .exe that injects the bootloader into firmware for archos?
18:07:41amiconnThe range [-1..+1) means 1.31 fixed point (1 bit integer/sign part, 31 bits fraction)
18:08:37amiconnStandard multiplication (32*32->64) gives a 2.62 number.
18:09:26amiconnCorrecting that to 1.31 means shifting right by 31 positions, then dropping the top 32 bits
18:10:16amiconnThis is identical to using the high 32 bits only, shifted left by one position
18:11:53amiconnThe top 33 bits of course, in order not to loose precision
18:12:42preglowamiconn: hmm, yes, this makes sense
18:13:27preglowamiconn: i was just a bit puzzled at how the sign bits fitted in, but i understand now, thanks
18:15:06TiMiDamiconn: so what do you think about the drawing functions ?
18:15:54***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
18:17:32amiconnIt's not important to do it right now. I have some ideas how this could be handled, but it will probably increase code size a bit for platforms with only one display

18:59:47amiconnFor this to work on a swcodec platform, plugins need access to the codecs
19:00
19:00:21TiMiDyou mean only video would work on iriver ?
19:00:41amiconnVideo frames are rather straight forward - the max. resolution is a bit higher, and the optimal frame frequency is different (70Hz instead of 67Hz)
19:01:15amiconnThe converter tools would need to be adapted, but that's simple, at least for the commandline tools
19:01:24TiMiDok
19:01:38TiMiDwill there be a code api for video ?
19:01:47amiconnBut - video w/o audio is booring ;)

19:03:39TiMiDI meant codecs
19:03:55amiconnvideo.rock doesn't use any codecs
19:04:31TiMiDI know :)
19:04:46amiconnThe video frames are plain b&w frames in native lcd format on archos. On iriver they will use the same format, although it's not 100% native
19:05:15amiconnIt can be converted to native on-the-fly, but only uses half the space as the real native format
19:05:30amiconn(current lcd_blit() already does this conversion)
19:05:32preglow|Lupin|: it seems audible files are simple mp3s encrypted in some way
19:05:42TiMiDwould be the iriver able to play "standard" compressed video formats ?.
19:05:52TiMiD(in terms of cpu power)
19:06:01amiconnI have no idea
19:06:05SlasheriHmm, sounds interesting. The video file controls directly the lcd?

19:41:17amiconnOn archos you can, and converting from this monochrome lcd format to 4-grey on the fly is simple
19:42:23amiconnA compressed video format would probably not gain much space on these low-depth displays, and the handling would be even more complex than for high-depth displays
19:43:26amiconnI guess as soon as there is basic rockbox on H300, someone will start fiddling with video codecs...

22:20:09BagderI know the feeling
22:20:20Bagderbut it should work rather fine on windows too
22:21:08miner49erI couldn't get it working. Well to be honest I have probably used it as an excuse for installing debian!
22:22:25BagderI've never built rockbox nor the sim on windows
22:23:36miner49erthat's binutils downloaded! that was damn quick!
22:25:29miner49erFor my archos, I need GCC 3.4.x, yeah? Colfire?

22:56:08miner49erI tried installing firefox previously and it didn't work as it asked for the CD's, which I've lent to a pal. That's all i've done
22:57:34pabsminer49er: usually when you get that lock error, it's because there's another instance of dpkg or apt running
22:58:14markunoops.. this must be #debian :)
22:58:23miner49erhmm, i've only one Terminal open? can one terminal have several processes running from it?
22:58:44miner49ersh*t sorry, this is meant to be Rockbox
22:59:11pabsminer49er: you can have several processes in one terminal
22:59:48pabsbut
22:59:54miner49eryeah, ps tells me there is apt-get running on PID 2029
22:59:59***Alert Mode OFF
23:00
23:00:14pabsdid you background it earlier or something?
23:00:44miner49ernot on purpose!
23:00:52pabstyping "fg" might bring it back
23:01:00pabsalternatively you can do su -c 'killall apt-get'
23:01:35pabspress f5?
23:01:36pabssdklajfjaklsdfjasdf
23:01:39pabswrong window, sorry

23:01:50pabsthe other line is for my girlfriend
23:01:55pabs(fixing her computer at the same time)
23:01:55pabs:D
23:02:43miner49erhey man, ps tells me there are loads of processes running 2 pings and 3 vi's
23:03:10miner49erthis is weird, I use ctrl x to exit, is this not correct?
23:04:16pabsctrl-c is better to cancel stuff
23:04:27pabsand obviously <esc>:q! to quit out of vi
23:05:12miner49erbut Ctrl c takes me out, does that not kill the process?
23:06:04 Quit strath (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
23:08:11pabsminer49er: that should kill it, ctrl-z backgrounds things
23:08:13pabsfrom the terminal
