00:16:42Sanjust wana say thanks :D
00:17:05XavierGrand I dont get a slugish reaction at long filetree lists
00:17:19XavierGrthough It will be very laggish in the radio screen.
00:17:26MoosXavierGr: but he said that will cost abit more cpu usage
00:18:17XavierGryes but for me that the lag is a major issue I can live with that
00:18:33modafromanexciting times it is now
00:18:33Moossure just for not forget it ;)
00:18:38XavierGrthis little patch must be known for users that use the remote and have that problem
00:19:43Moossure, it was a very Infamous bug :)
00:19:59XavierGrstupid iriver
00:20:07Mooshehe :)
00:20:17Mooslike for lots of stuffs
00:20:24XavierGrfreelancer programers are making iriver look amateur
00:20:42modafromanwhy?
00:21:05XavierGrand I had lost hope. I was considering bying another remote, to mod the older one.
00:21:14_FireFly_XavierGr: which patch ??
00:21:15eli_shererbut still iriver made one hack of an operating system that takes down every other on the market
00:21:23eli_sherergraphic wise i mean
00:21:37Moosmodafroman: we don't still really why they did like they made, e.g no radio rec...

00:21:43XavierGrI was thinking to cut the audio jack of the remote in order to plug earphones directly to main unit but that should be very difficult
00:22:07XavierGr_FireFly_: I will pm it to you.
00:22:16XavierGrvery nice indeed, small and valuable
00:22:25ashridahMoos: given that by the time they release a product, they have to start building the next one, i'm not surprised that features got cut, and stuff got promised with no delivery
00:22:30eli_sherersome uses extensions...
00:23:06Moosashridah: sure there are commercials issue...
00:23:23Moosbut I'm sceptic with some things
00:23:33*ashridah also suspects they don't have as many people working on it
00:23:45Moosoh yeah :D
00:23:46ashridahand lets face it, a good deal of rockbox pre-existed here too.
00:23:48eli_shererwell their working on their U10 they don't have time for us (H300s)
00:24:05ashridahrockbox had the oppertunity to save time by importing opensource codecs
00:24:20Moosindeed
00:24:25eli_shereryes
00:24:55MoosGlory to opensources projects :)
00:25:23eli_sherermakes me wanna burn my licensed copy of windowsxp and install linux

01:12:38XavierGrLinus: I had 2 issues
01:13:10XavierGrFirst, I had a crash when I quit the FM radio. (after I fiddled too much)
01:13:52XavierGrSecond, I quit the FM radio and the audio codecs couldnt be found after that. A reboot solved the issue.
01:14:13XavierGrI just can't really understand how a so comapct radio became buggy...
01:14:59pinkutanki think it has to do with the route of the signal
01:17:00LinusNXavierGr: sounds like a memory corruption issue
01:17:33pinkutankwhy are my cmpos end up getting inversed?
01:18:35XavierGrAlso, the button arrangement is difficult to get used to. But I will give a little more time over this, maybe these are better than the old, I just can't get used to them.

01:42:27webguest38does that include the new ipod with video too?
01:42:43webguest53I don't think so
01:43:25webguest53But the Nano is targetted, which is cool
01:43:34webguest38why not the new one?
01:43:52SanLinusN, You know in the iRiver H300 firmware you are building, are you going to be implementing images into the firmware like the origional iRIver firmware does?
01:43:57webguest53Different processor setup I believe
01:44:15LinusNSan: what do you mean?
01:44:45webguest38Linus can you say something about supporting the ipod with video?
01:44:50Sanlike...in the iriver firmware, the interface is made up of images, will rockbox have that?>

01:46:28LinusNno
01:46:29webguest38is there a chance? does it have the same processor series?
01:46:39pinkutankshould i relieve you of answring
01:46:54pinkutankcurrently theyre not working on the video ipod
01:46:54LinusNSan: the rockbox user interface is not made of images
01:46:59Sanyeah
01:47:05Sanbut you can get like one in there
01:47:06LinusNSan: but you can have images in the wps
01:47:14Santhats what I ment
01:47:21Sansorry for not making it clear
01:47:23pinkutankthe problem with the video ipod is, it uses another video chipset to output stuff to lcd
01:47:30webguest38the question is is the new ipod witth the same processor as the other ipods so it might be easy to port it to this processor later?
01:47:31LinusNSan: then the answer is yes
01:47:35pinkutankand it is not "circumvented" yet
01:47:36Sanah, cool
01:48:03pinkutankbut, I think it may be circumvented, linux guys said they will be working on it
01:48:10pinkutankbut dont expect it in a month
01:50:45webguest38how did it come that you guys started rockbox for ipod?
01:51:08LinusNwe felt like it :-)
01:51:30pinkutankI'm not a dev here, but probably because thousands of people use it, there was already a linux project, so booting process was handled faster than usual ?

02:22:38linuxstbWe have a solution (read-only) for HFS access - libhfsp seems quite suited for use in Rockbox.

02:41:54_user_im not getting it
02:42:28pinkutankI always had hiss with rb
02:42:43whatboutbobhey folks. has the idea of one-button playlist queueing been shot down many times before?
02:43:26lamedpinkutank, yes, me too, ever since switching to koss the plug. but i'm talking about no music, just very load hiss... (static)
02:44:47lamedi'm building again
02:45:01pinkutankoh
02:45:38lamedhope its not my patch :////
02:46:19pinkutankwhat did you build
02:47:50lamedbah... that's kind of terrifying actually. 4 AM and i'm getting a sudden load noise. pinkutank - h120.
02:48:12pinkutankI meant what patch
02:49:06lamedsomething for better screen viewing... hope to post very shortly. just that static i wasn't ready for it...
02:49:49pinkutankargh
02:50:01pinkutankit might not be the patch
02:50:13pinkutankif you want I can try it
02:51:13lamedI will happily let you the first one to try it! but i just wanna make sure everything is set up right.
02:52:19pinkutankI meant it could be something else other than your patch, If I try poatching my source you cna see if its your patch or sumtin else
02:52:27pinkutankbut you could just recompile too
02:52:28pinkutank:D
02:53:27lamedpink: do you use headphones? haven't had that hiss with iriv fw? explain please. I wasn't getting the hiss (now i mean the very gentle quiet hiss) up until moving to better headphones.
02:53:38pinkutankI use e3c
02:53:46pinkutankshure e3c
02:54:23pinkutankthe hiss comes with the isolation + ability to project extremes(lows and highs)
02:54:34pinkutanklet me see if i get it with irivers
02:54:52whatboutbobpink: did u get it with irver? its prolly going from 16 to 32ohm cans
02:54:54pinkutankoops, in a while do, currently removing badsectors
02:55:10pinkutanki dont remember if i got it with iriver but I'll try
02:55:34pinkutankI have a plethora of headphones,I'll try with some of them

03:01:23whatboutbobergh...not showing the plus sign... :)
03:01:52whatboutbobyeah...i'm curious to see how the fit goes. i hear you really have to jam them down your ear canal.
03:01:58 Quit webguest53 ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
03:02:03lamedanyone heard something about earplugs taking some time to 'adjust' ... i mean... to themselves? -i feel like when i've first opend up my plugs they didn't had enough trebel. now they are fine.
03:02:42pinkutanksome of them do
03:02:45whatboutboblames: some cans burn in...yeah. but with plugs, it may just be you getting used to fitting them better.
03:02:45pinkutanksome of them dont
03:02:57pinkutankplugs, usually fitting better
03:03:12pinkutankbut low range plugs use your normal drivers so they burn in too
03:03:18pinkutankanything above e2c doesnt
03:03:28pinkutankI just ordered super fi 5 pros
03:03:40pinkutankbtw yes e3cs go as deep as anything can go
03:03:52pinkutankactually, one tip stuck in my ear yesterday
03:04:09pinkutankthere was no way i could touch it with my finger, and it was invisible
03:04:25whatboutbobdamn..that sounds a little scary.
03:04:28pinkutankI pushed here and there around my ear and pulled it out with a hairclip
03:04:46pinkutankdont worry, it doesnt happen much, just try to keep them clean
03:05:03pinkutankthrow the tips in to alcohol form time to time and clean around the tube
03:05:09pinkutankso they dont move alot
03:05:12pinkutankit was my mistake

03:28:39lamedyou can read _all_ about it in the patchtracker... ah. then i guess it won't help you :\
03:29:43whatboutboboh...no...sorry...i'm not literally blind. just didn't read 3 lines above.
03:29:59lamedroflmao
03:30:19pinkutankhaha
03:30:39pinkutankwhat kind of diff is it, I only work with 1 file patches so I dont know how to apply yours
03:30:44whatboutbobhehe...i should prolly be a little more sensitive considering the number of blind rockbox users. sorry guys! :)
03:31:10lamedi wanted to ask you if rockbox are the only guys today that support players for the blinds...
03:31:34pinkutankk found it
03:31:37Membrillohow does the blind support work?
03:31:45pinkutankthe menu speaks to you
03:32:25lamedpinku, put the patch at the root build folder
03:32:30Membrilloreally? thats pretty cool. So have the rockbox guys just recorded themselves saying the menus and set it to play on scroll over or something?
03:32:43lamed(i.e ./rockbox-devel )
03:32:54lamedchange the name to something shorter like screen.diff
03:33:17lamedand then type | patch -p0 < screen.diff

03:41:24pinkutanki dont mind either
03:41:33pinkutankbut you will need to reupload anyway?
03:41:38pinkutankfor others
03:41:41lamedrather simple acctually. just put at the end of english.lang the two new strings.
03:41:56lamedyeah but i have to figure out why did it happend...
03:42:30pinkutankok I'll look into it
03:43:25lameddo you have the error message?
03:43:42lamednm
03:44:49Membrillosorry to be off topic here, but if I bricked my h300, and buying a wiggler is cheaper, how difficult is it to connect the wiggler and reflash with that
03:44:49pinkutanki think its because
03:45:09pinkutanki think it because of the browse themes seciton
03:45:46lamedmembrillo, only two people are awak here, you are not off topic... and you have to ask linus on that.
03:46:00pinkutankit doesnt have an id and a desc
03:46:07pinkutankyou need an id for the browse themes
03:46:11pinkutankoh i think I know why
03:46:19pinkutankyou built this on bleeding edge right?
03:46:51pinkutankI'm trying it on 18th of November
03:48:17lamedthat might be it. i think there's more to that so i'm rebuilding the patch
03:48:48pinkutanki removed the browse themes and building atm
03:48:50pinkutankit should work
03:49:02pinkutankthe browse themes is not built into todays ubild yet

03:54:26lamedi've uploaded an other file. you might want to try it with the bleeding edge build.
03:55:08pinkutankok , do youre saying it wouldnt work with todays even if i manually do the eng lang
03:56:26lamedno, it will easily work either way!. just cut and paste the two new language items and it should work, as long as there wasn't any other rejected segments.
03:57:26pinkutankyes it doesnt
03:57:29pinkutanklet build bleedin
03:59:58lameddont use the second patch

04:30:58mofoGXthe h320 rockbox is a thing of beauty

04:31:31mofoGXi have made my decisionm
04:32:17FingerSoupis it woking 100% now, or did Linus just get graphical output?
04:32:21DMJCheh
04:32:33mofoGXprobably just graphical outpur
04:32:34pinkutankgraph oout
04:32:47mofoGXbut that little bit shows a lot of promise
04:33:08mofoGXit was very clean, simple looking
04:33:16mofoGXpretty colors
04:33:17FingerSoupTrue... As do the reports of IPod Rockbox...
04:33:34smeagol1scandisk is running, but if that does not give problems
04:33:38smeagol1what then
04:33:47mofoGXi thought that an iPod rockbox cannot happen
04:33:54FingerSoupSmeagol1 - Check your connections
04:34:15mofoGXbecause of the IP governing the portalplayer chips
04:34:19smeagol1i used the AC only and still if gives a problem
04:34:28FingerSoupcheck the rockbox webpage. IPod Nano, etc...
04:34:41pinkutankand you were wrong
04:34:53pinkutankanything that linux run on, rb can run on too :)
04:35:18DMJCcool.. when's the X86 port coming?
04:35:32DMJCcan't wait to boot into rockbox and play off my audigy2

04:36:07pinkutankits like ipod :)
04:36:19DMJCheh

04:38:15pinkutankim off

04:40:46FingerSoupsmeagol1 - any connection between your archos and your HD. Moth circuit-board side, and HD side...
04:40:54FingerSouperr both
04:41:32FingerSoupMake sure your wires aren't chewed either...
04:42:04FingerSoupHow'd your HD stop working anyways?
04:42:20smeagol1i do not know
04:42:32FingerSoupdid you drop it? or did it just randomly stop?
04:42:36smeagol1if i turn on the unit it stops after 1 second
04:42:39FingerSoupAfter a charge?
04:42:46smeagol1yes I charged it
04:42:53FingerSoupwas it raining?
04:42:58smeagol1the hd is just fine
04:43:09smeagol1no it was not raining
04:43:34FingerSoupIs your power clean? have you ever opened your archos before?
04:43:46smeagol1nope i opened it now
04:43:57FingerSoupdo you have the ability to test another HD?
04:43:58smeagol1b/c i thought the hd was dead
04:44:07FingerSoupin the Archos that is...
04:44:10smeagol1yes I can test several other hds
04:44:37smeagol1only they are bigger disks
04:44:46smeagol1i do not have a 20 gb disk
04:44:51smeagol1only 60 gb disks
04:44:52FingerSouptry another FAT32 formatted drive in the Archos. if it sees it, then it may be a dead controller, not a dead HD...
04:45:10smeagol1dead controller is bad news
04:45:46FingerSoupYes. But I don't know if the Archos can run a larger HD....I'm an IRiver user...
04:46:47smeagol1if i do not put a hd in the unit it does give an error about a missing drive, it does not give that error when there is a drive hooked on to the unit
04:47:33FingerSoupok, but when you have a HD connected, can you read it?

07:06:34mofoGXbut do you know where i can obtain a fresh h300?
07:07:14cannardthey still sell alot here in aus
07:07:29cannardoh dun worry bout my previous comments
07:07:43cannardi have no idea when any version is getting done
07:08:00cannardbut a huge thanks to the rockbkx guys for doing what they do
07:08:36Coldtoastjust waitin gfor a bootloader for the h300. I see h300 support has been added to fwpatcher
07:08:55Coldtoastever see any h1x0's for sale where you are cannard?
07:09:34cannardnah, the last h1x0 i saw was mine when i took it back to get it fixed and those bastards gave me a h300!
07:09:59Coldtoastthere's one here. in Stallards
07:10:09cannardwheres stallards?
07:10:11Coldtoast740 smackers tho
07:10:35ColdtoastStallards Camera House
07:10:57cannard740?!?! damn
07:11:08Coldtoastyeah. I paid $630 for mine last Nov
07:11:14cannardwith h300 rockbox around the corner doesnt really seem worth it
07:11:41Coldtoastwell, it depends tho. If you want optical, you'd still buy it I guess
07:12:19cannardhah i paid 675 for mine in june or something, then 3 weeks before the warranty expired i 'accidently' (my experiment went wrong) plugged my tunecast addapter into it

07:12:43Coldtoastis that an FM tuner?
07:12:47cannardyeah
07:12:57Coldtoastwell, FM transmitter
07:13:04Coldtoasthow did that ruin it tho?
07:13:27cannardnot adapter i meant cigarette lighter charger thing!
07:13:31cannard12v
07:13:32Coldtoastaaah!
07:13:35cannardyeah :|
07:13:42cannardnot one of my greatest moments
07:13:51Coldtoastwhy would you even THINK about doing that? heh
07:14:15Coldtoastyou don't have blonde hair do you?
07:14:21cannardhahah maybe..
07:14:25Coldtoast:)
07:14:56ColdtoastI need to contact iriver I think. Just realised I have about 2 weeks left on my warranty and the HDD has become noisy
07:15:05cannardi was hung over and didnt charge it for a 7 hour drive home, you'd think it would have diode voltage protection or something
07:15:13cannardbe careful, you will get a h300
07:15:30Coldtoastthat'll be fine
07:15:45cannardyou could always just buy a bigg hd for it?
07:15:58cannardwhere abouts in aus?
07:15:58Coldtoastwell, even tho the h300 is one of the uglier DAPs
07:16:03ColdtoastTas
07:16:20cannardahh ok
07:16:25ColdtoastI'm not paying $200+ for a new HDD if I can get something done under warranty
07:16:40cannardhmm does iriver look after your warranty? or c.r.kennedy?
07:16:52Coldtoastc.r.kennedy I'm pretty sure
07:18:01cannardexcept for keeping my h140 the guy i dealt with there was pretty good, even marked urgent on the repair, though it prolly meant nothing
07:18:30Coldtoastdid you email or phone them?
07:18:46cannardi phoned them, then i drove down there and said, oi fix this!
07:19:19Coldtoastit'll be a bit of a pain tosend mine. have to change the battery back to the original
07:19:28cannardahh ok
07:19:39cannardwhat battery did you change it too?
07:19:47Coldtoastand I dunno if a noisy HDD would even be covered
07:19:56Coldtoast2200mAH one
07:20:43cannardyou could always brick it so it doesnt start up and then it wouldnt matter?
07:20:54Coldtoastthankfully, when you dismantly the player it doesn't break any stickers or anything
07:21:16Coldtoastwell, I might want to put the battery in teh replacement tho
07:21:35cannardhow much did the battery cost?
07:21:41Coldtoast$26
07:21:44Coldtoastbut even so
07:21:57cannardim interested in doing something similar
07:22:07Coldtoastyou'd NEVER regret it
07:22:12Coldtoastit's great
07:22:22ColdtoastI rarely ever seem to have to charge it
07:22:34cannardhmm though i dont use my h300 now, since im always at the computer
07:22:52cannardthough rockbox could change that!
07:23:37ColdtoastI wear mine to the gym, while iI train and then for the 40min walk home from the gym
07:24:02ColdtoastI pretty much never leave the house without mine
07:24:40Coldtoastsurely iriver would just replace the HDD in mine tho. it's just noisy
07:24:46cannardi hope so
07:24:54Coldtoastthere's nothing wrong with the player at all
07:26:38Coldtoastever heard of Thirsty Merc?
07:26:50cannardheard of them, but i dont think ive heard them

07:28:48Coldtoastmaybe you're too young?
07:29:04cannardhaha i hope so! or im missing out on a lot :p
07:29:38ColdtoastI'm probably just old enough to have heard the last BIG song he had
07:29:50Coldtoastmaybe before Copperhead Road, I was too young to take any notice
07:30:00cannardhow old are you?
07:30:04Coldtoast32

07:36:40Coldtoastman. it's great to have WPS for the remote, btw
07:36:51cannardyou have rockbox?
07:36:54cannardhow is it?
07:36:58Coldtoastyeah. I have a h140
07:37:17Coldtoastwell, I've not used the iriver firmware for ages
07:37:41cannardi never got a chance to try it
07:37:57Coldtoastthere's pretty much only one thing the iriver fw has tht makes it better
07:38:10Coldtoastnot overall, just better in ona area
07:38:26Coldtoastand that's the SRS stuff
07:38:29cannardahh ok
07:38:46cannardhmm thats really a love it or hate it setting
07:39:26Coldtoastdepends on the person tho. some ppl hate it. But I was using SRS to fatten the sound up. it also seems to open the sound up
07:39:31Coldtoastwith my earphones
07:39:36Coldtoastdefinitely
07:40:03Coldtoastother than that tho, there's LITERALLY not a thing that's better about the iriver firmware
07:40:32cannardcool, i cant wait
07:40:50Coldtoastyou'll really love it
07:41:19Coldtoastand the fact you can create your own WPS ices the cake

09:52:04amiconnSlasheri: I'm not sure whether your ticking reduction method is a good idea. It costs considerably more CPU time, so much that it adds the same ugly lag when scrolling long lists that before happened in radio mode only
09:52:20amiconn...and was reduced by my asm-optimised transfer
09:54:05amiconnThe problem is most likely caused by bad shielding within the remote and/or the cable, and a proper fix would be to get a ticking remote replaced by iriver
09:54:37amiconnI also thought about an emi-reduced transfer method, but with a different approach
09:55:22amiconn...using variable timing between 2 bit transitions, and never changing more than one bit at a time in the same direction
09:56:02amiconnUnfortunately I can't really test; my remote doesn't tick...
09:56:05Slasheriamiconn: that is why i added it as an option..
09:56:32Slasheribut it compensates with the cpu speed and shouldn't add considerably ui lag
09:56:45amiconnIt does, I tried
09:56:49Slasherioh :/
09:57:00Slasheriweird.. i will try more testing soon
09:57:12amiconnScroll through a lot directory listing, then stop

10:29:42webguest45haha
10:31:35webguest45but what is the H3xx - boot in the daily builds?
10:32:10amiconnIt's a h3xx bootloader build
10:32:26ashridahwebguest45: it's the bootloader build. even tho it builds, it's not in the slightest garunteed to patch or work
10:32:32 Join eli_sherer [0] (n=eli@IGLD-84-228-234-144.inter.net.il)
10:32:36ashridahit's just whether or not it compiles without warnings or errors
10:32:41amiconnThe fact that it builds w/o warning does only mean that, it doesn't mean that it will actually work
10:32:49ashridahchecking out a non-sanctioned release of the bootloader is not a good idea
10:33:32webguest45but do you know when we will get the pre-realese version of rockbox ?:D
10:33:55amiconnCheck the channel topixc
10:35:14webguest45sorry but im a n00b, wher can i check that ?:S
10:35:33eli_shererno pre-release...
10:36:07eli_shereri dont know what about you but i wont upload a pre-release to my iriver...
10:36:24webguest45so there will be no pre-realese like the h1xx? we have to wait until its finished ?
10:37:14ashridahwebguest45: you have to wait until it's functional enough. when a working bootloader can be constructed that's reasonably expected not to brick a player, a build will be uploaded to the wiki by Linus
10:37:23eli_shererthats because linus have a US version and not an international so it will be better to wait until it be checked on all of the version with md5 sum and then we try it...
10:37:37webguest45with pre-realese i mean like that one that we have on the h1xx now:D
10:37:49ashridahyeah, waiting for a few sacrificial lambs to test on both the us and international versions would be wise
10:38:38webguest45i hope it wont take long ! i cant wait !!
10:38:55webguest45and i see that linus is working very hard on this :D
10:39:19ashridahi daresay http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IriverBoot would be the page to watch, along with http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IriverStatus
10:39:20eli_shererif you really want to see it in action...make the win32-sim and run the h300 rom...

10:40:22eli_shereri meant the boot sorry
10:40:39amiconnSame thing
10:41:20amiconnThe simulator is just rockbox built natively for unix/x11 or windows, showing the rockbox ui and allowing higher-level development
10:41:33ashridaheli_sherer: the simulator is just an x86 compiled version of the firmware, with some glue to hook it up to a virtual LCD and keyboard etc
10:41:36ashridahit's not an interpreter
10:41:56ashridah(well, x86 on x86 platforms, it works on ppc too iirc)
10:42:43webguest45but the only thing i have to download is the h300 win installer ? or do i have to downbload rockbox 2.5 installer ?
10:43:58amiconnThe win installer is for installing rockbox on target, and has nothing to do with the sims
10:44:22amiconnHowever, it doesn't install any of the iriver targets yet, only archos
10:44:27webguest45but where to find the sims?
10:44:38amiconn...and the official build still isn't repaired :(
10:45:02amiconnThe sims aren't available for download; you have to build them from the source

11:15:14ashridahtry typing 'm68k-elf-gcc −−version' and make sure that exists.
11:15:38ashridahthe other thing to check is that you selected a 'normal' H3x0 build
11:16:29peturgot the correct compiler alright, will remove all output and rebuild
11:23:37*petur shouldn't have tried to build the sim and the target in the same build directory

11:25:22ashridahbut yeah, keep them separate, otherwise the build system won't realise some of the files need to be rebuilt

13:02:27Leariirc, the ticking problem was not that common...

13:02:55amiconnint and long are always signed
13:03:09amiconnchar can be signed or unsigned depending on the platform

13:39:37XavierGramiconn: Slasheri's ticking fix works great aside from the UI lag that appears when the CPU is on 45Mhz or idle.
13:40:00amiconnHis fix doesn't influence behaviour in idle mode
13:40:10XavierGrBut please if ou have another better fix give it a try, I will gladly make some tests for it, as my remote ticks like hell.
13:40:25modafromani know i will get told to look at the topic, but, we any closer to getting h300?
13:40:30 Part ep0ch|
13:40:37amiconnIdle mode uses my asm optimised transfer, which isn't changed by his fix
13:40:54XavierGrIdle is 11 or 45mhz?
13:40:56amiconn11
13:41:10XavierGrwell idle appears in radio screen no?
13:41:16amiconnyes
13:41:25XavierGrwell there is a lot of lag there too.
13:41:31amiconnThe optimised transfer lowers the lag, but doesn't manage to avoid it
13:41:37XavierGrbut I guess that this was the kcase before the fix
13:41:41amiconnyepp
13:41:59amiconnThis lag was the reason why I wrote the optimised transfer
13:42:05XavierGrwhen there is no playback there is significant lag on the filetree itself
13:42:13amiconnyes
13:42:18amiconnThat's at 45 MHz
13:42:23XavierGrthis disappears as playback starts due to the higher CPU frequencies
13:42:35amiconn...and doesn't happen with tick reduction switched off
13:42:51XavierGrdo you have a better solution for it?
13:42:55amiconnPlayback switches between 45 MHz and 124 MHz as needed
13:43:52amiconnI have an idea (which will also lower the transfer speed, but not as much)
13:44:17XavierGrwell if you have time please give it a try, and I can make the tests.
13:44:28amiconnI can't really test it (well I can test whether the display works ok, but not whether it avoids ticking)
13:44:53XavierGrdo you think that this issue can be easily fixed by a hardware mod on main unit?

13:50:30XavierGrthe same problem had another guy from here, I just don't remember who. thegeek are you the person I am talking about?
13:50:43XavierGrI think he fixed that by resoldering some connections
13:51:17SlasheriXavierGr: hmm, weird. Sounds like a hardware issue too
13:51:30XavierGryes it is definetelly
13:51:31Slasheriprobably a bad soldering
13:51:43XavierGrit comes around when I poke the connector
13:52:09Slasheriyou should try to resolder everything near the connector
13:52:11XavierGrWhen I opened my unit I recall that all the soldering connections were very bad.
13:52:20Slasheri:/
13:52:23whatboutbobis the ticking an issue with the actual remotes (ie not the main unit)? if so, I've got a few remotes, but i haven't listened to all of them...might check them all out to see if i've got any duds.
13:52:37XavierGrAll the connections were like blobs of solder
13:52:45amiconnIt's a problem within the main unit according to LinusN

14:45:23lamedhave you tried my patch?
14:45:59amiconnNo
14:46:44pinkutanklamed, when di you wake up
14:47:12linuxstblamed: My initial reaction is that it looks like a big diff for a small feature.
14:47:23linuxstbYou've also ignored the ipod parts of the code.
14:47:38pinkutankyour next patch should be customizable left and right margins for scrolling fields in wpss :)
14:47:52pinkutanktoo many files to customize, that why its big I think

14:53:29pinkutankI have all albums under one folder that all
14:53:42amiconnFor tracks which don't belong to an album there's a special 'Various Tracks' album, with just the trackname as filename

14:54:47amiconn..or for multi-artist albums
14:55:25amiconnLear: Iirc this is since sim playback was introduced..
14:55:40amiconnThe change that I mean must have happened yesterday or today
14:56:11amiconnThe win32 sims became ~700KB smaller

15:00:08whatboutbobflac seeking no longer working? or just me? :)
15:00:46linuxstbI broke it a while ago when I changed the decoder library. dbPowerAmp doesn't add seek tables to FLAC files....
15:01:03linuxstbThe FLAC decoder now only seeks to the nearest seek point in the seek table. So if you have no seek table, it won't seek.
15:01:23***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
15:01:38linuxstbYou can use the "metaflac" command to add seek tables to your files.
15:02:03whatboutbobah. cool. thanks. will do.
15:02:34amiconnlinuxstb: This is definitely the cause... The last mingw-runtime package was ~1.3MB, both previous and current package are <250 KB
15:03:05linuxstbHow big is your H300 sim, for example?
15:03:19amiconn2285KB

15:03:29linuxstbMy cross-compiled version is 2518610 bytes.
15:03:40webguest28does the wps file and icons have to be in a specific folder now ?, my wps doesn't display my icons
15:03:46linuxstb(also without sound)
15:03:50amiconn(2339727 Bytes)
15:04:49linuxstbI've fixed the button definitions, so we just need some ipod pictures to make the win32 sims work.
15:04:56amiconnyes
15:05:14amiconn...and a slight fix for the swapped rgb565
15:05:36amiconnDo you have a scan of your ipod?
15:05:56linuxstbNo, but I could try and get my old scanner working and scan it later today.
15:06:11amiconnThat would be nice
15:06:14linuxstbWe'll need preglow to do the same with the Nano.
15:06:26amiconnThe fix is in fact simple
15:06:42amiconnThe handling in screendump() needs fixing as well
15:07:10amiconnYou added the swapped format, but left it as swap16() ...
15:07:12wubblahow do you guys enable sound in the simulator?
15:07:37amiconnThis wouldn't work for an ipod sim on a big-endian machine
15:08:29amiconnWe could just use htobe16() instead; this will in fact give little endian data with the swapped source data
15:10:36webguest28why does this NOT call the icon %xl|a|hm.bmp|57|1|

15:12:10amiconnlinuxstb: Btw, I wonder why the lcd data is swapped on ipod? Perhaps the apple firmware does run in big-endian mode?
15:12:19lamedlinuxstb: yes, it is a big diff for a small feature, but that was one of the best ways to do it. there could be some other quick-hacks to do that, but i wanted to make it something that looks organized. also, i have ignored the ipod parts just for now, because i wanted others to see my work and talk about it. it will be very simple to make the adjustments to the ipod lcd driver & bind the correct keys.
15:13:17Learamiconn: no, at the time I added win32 sim sound, I also changed it so that playback worked without hogging the cpu. and that worked for a while.
15:15:01Learwubbla: check autoconf.h
15:15:11lamedamiconn: I'm sure that there are hundreds of users like me, that like to have complete '<track number> <artist> - <track name>' , which is always very long. in some folders, like "presidents of the united states of america" album folder... you are pretty darn lost of waiting the scroll thing to reach. second, about folder view, maybe you'r right, maybe it should always jump back to zero. i feel that this should be left to the user.
15:15:30wubblaargh! what's wrong with the win32 sim sound?!

15:31:36linuxstbIt also affects another change I was thinking of making - moving the generic scrolling code out of the lcd drivers. I'm sure you noticed that the scrolling code in lcd-recorder.c, lcd-h100.c and lcd-16bit.c is identical.

15:32:02lamedpinkutank - i've woke up at 15:00 ... and the thing you've said about scrolling fileds in wps isn't that far out. I've thought about making the lcd driver looking a bit different then now, giving it the posibility to scroll both directions, and to scroll out of view as it should. corrently the scrolling thread in comination with puts_scroll .

16:31:14Learwhat didn't work?
16:31:21SlasheriSo everything seems to be fine
16:31:35SlasheriC requires manual resolution for the conflict
16:32:28lamedslasheri: that's what i thought.. just that the file id is left unupdated.
16:32:31SlasheriAnd P means the file (with you modifications) has been successfully patched

16:36:00Slasherilamed: Hmm, how?
16:36:49lamedhow do i tell cvs to diff against screen_access.c revision 1.12?
16:37:10lamedslasheri: because it contains both my changes and the things that are new in revision 1.13
16:37:10Slashericvs diff -r 1.12 screen_access.c
16:37:23lamed-r? recursive?
16:37:25Slasherior -r 1.12 -r 1.13 or -D 2005-xx-xx ...
16:37:29Slasherino, revision
16:37:32lamedah
16:37:39lamedsec
16:38:23lamedyes, that gave me the correct stuff. (not suprising)
16:41:26 Part Mindship-02
16:42:17lamedhow do you " cvs diff -r 1.12 screen_access-mychanges.c > 123 | cvs update screen_access.c | patch screen_access.c < 123 | " without creating the external file?
16:42:32lamed= 123
16:43:10lamedslasheri?
16:43:49SlasheriHmm
16:44:19Slasheriyou should cp screen_access-mychanges.c screen_access.c && cvs diff screen_access.c
16:44:26Slasherithat should do the correct diff
16:45:01Slasherior cvs update before the diff
16:45:14lamedhehe... that what i was doing t the first place. but now i want it to patch the diff with the new revsion..
16:45:37Slasherieh, why in earth do you want to do it that way?
16:46:02Slashericvs diff can do it for you.. and cvs update automatically patches the file with your changes whenever there is a new version available
16:46:17lamedslasheri, all i want to do is have the scree_access.c file update to the new version with my change. what's the best way?
16:46:27Slashericvs update
16:46:39lamedthat caused an M
16:46:43lamedand no update.
16:47:01SlasheriHmm, then it's already the newest version
16:47:05curioso.. escuse me but, does anybody hear me ? am i on a splitted serve ? does everybody ignores me ?

16:48:34curiookay Moos
16:48:34lamedslasheri: no, it really isn't, it's still v. 1.12 and it's lacking the lasts commit.
16:48:47curioMoos : thanks for the response
16:49:06Slasherilamed: that's really weird..
16:49:26Slasheritry to delete the file (take a backup of your changes) and run cvs update
16:49:26lamedslasheri: yepp, that's me.
16:49:35Slasheridoes it correctly fetch the new version?
16:49:37Mooscurio: np, here people answer if they know answer, but currently aparently no archos devloper or user
16:49:37lamedslasheri: ok, so i've got the new file.
16:49:42lamedslasheri: yes.
16:50:01SlasheriHmm.. what if you copy your changes to screen_access.c and run cvs udpate then?
16:50:40lamedi guess it will tell me an M..? modification?
16:50:45lamedwaiitt...
16:50:51lamedi think i know!
16:51:05Slasheriif it tells M, it indicates that the file has your modifications not yet committed to cvs
16:51:13Slasheriand cvs diff will tell them
16:51:35curioMoos, maybe should i try to post to the mailing list, or sumbit something to the bug tracking system ?
16:51:36Sanhttp://www.misticriver.net/showthread.php?t=32092
16:51:40lamedmaybe one time it tells you "C", then the next time it will only claims for an "M", because the cvs entry file is updated!

16:52:12Slasherilamed: if it ever tells C, you must manually correct the conflict before doing anything to the file
16:52:32Mooscurio: that sounds good you could try the user ml and if there are no reply, retry here if you have a bit of luck
16:53:03lamedslasheri: it looks that way, because in /cvs/entries: "/screen_access.c/1.13/Sat Nov 19 15:21:27 2005//"
16:53:15lamedso it thinks it's updated...
16:54:13lamedyes!

17:01:02curioanyway, rockbox 2.5 has the capability to make the studio 10 unusable. i doubt that it could be permanent but I do not find how to fix that
17:01:27***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
17:02:00MoosI doubt the fw can kill one device
17:02:16Moosit's maybe an harware problem? HD...
17:02:23Moos*hardware
17:03:42curioi doubt becay just 5 minutes before, player was running officiel firmware (i just bought it used) and played mp3 files at the right speed and without skips
17:04:19Mooscurio: pv for french :)
17:08:37lamedanyone with info about it?
17:08:44uskihi all
17:08:49*lamed is going for the USB CHARGER CABLE MOD
17:08:53uskicurio: could you re-explain your problem J
17:08:56uski?
17:09:04uskilamed, for which player ?
17:09:08lamedh120
17:09:27curiohello, uski: yes for shure
17:10:19curiouski, i've upgraded an archos studio 10 to rockbox 2.5. Before this upgrade the player worked flawlessly
17:10:38 Join akaidiot [0] (n=nope@217.28.34.35)
17:10:44lameduski anything?
17:10:56uskilamed, no, just some curiosity ;)
17:11:03uskicurio: and now what's wrong?
17:11:19curiouski, after the first boot under the rockbox firmware, players play songs with the wrong pitch ( 90% of the normal speed )
17:11:59curiouski, and it skips at every screen refresh. so it skips everytime when song title scrolls on the display
17:12:08uskioh, that's strange
17:12:22uskihave you tried reinstalling an older version ?
17:12:42curiouski, so i've removed the .mod and .rockbox/ to reboot to the original firmware, and it does not work anymore good
17:12:47uskimp3 decoding is done by the MAS, and if i remember things correctly it is the MAS that sets the pitch, it has its one timebase
17:13:04uskidoes the archos firmware shows the same behavior ?
17:13:32curiouski, yes, i've tried rockbox 2.4: the same. i've tried 1.0 too, and now my player is stuck and semi-crashed with rockbox 1.0 firmware
17:14:13uskidid you remove the .mod file from USB ?
17:14:23curioyes
17:14:25uskialso, do you have a flashed box ? or do you still have the original archos bootloader ?
17:14:51lamedxaviergr here?
17:15:08curioi've only put the .mod file on the disk, without any flashing operation
17:15:31uskiif you remove the .mod file, it should go back to the original archos firmware
17:15:36uskihave you tried that ?
17:15:51curiofor now the device is up with rockbox 1.0 in ram, and.. don't know how to shut it down :)
17:16:20curioi've removed the .mod files 2 times : after testing the 2.5 version and the 2.4 version
17:16:26uskipress the OFF button and keep it pressed
17:16:37uskii think it's the square (stop) button on the studio
17:16:49curioi didn't know that :)
17:17:00uski:)
17:17:00curiothat worked :)
17:17:05uskicool
17:17:15uskinow, connect your player to the computer with the usb cable
17:17:18uskiremove any .mod file
17:17:23uskidisconnect the cable
17:17:32uskiand then try with the original archos firmware
17:17:56curiouski: i can give you a ssh access to the machine connected to the player if it can help
17:18:10uskii don't see how it will help

17:24:53Maximecurio: try to empty the batteries
17:25:02Maximeby letting a song play until poweroff ..
17:25:13Maximemaybe it may help..
17:26:09curioMaxime does the device really empty the batteries or shutdown just before they are empty for filesystem corruption preventing ?
17:26:43Maximei think it's a soft poweroff, but if you restart the player a lot.. maybe?
17:27:19curioMaxime, yes, i'll try that...

18:14:17curiouski i've retries rockbox 2.5 and back to the officiel firmware with the same method (hardware reset with removing batteries) and now with the official it still skips at every refresh.
18:14:44curiouski : i do not anderstand why and will investigate a bit more before posting
18:15:08pinkutankis there anyone who is familiar with irivers partition table
18:15:57curiouski, is the studio10 limited with some high bitrates or non strict iso padding mp3 (like mp3 produced by lame) ?
18:16:39preglowpinkutank: why do you need to be familiar with it?
18:16:47preglowpinkutank: as long as it contains a fat32 part, you'll be fine
18:16:58pinkutankprimary/logical?
18:17:02preglowprimary, i guess
18:17:26pinkutankI wanted to ask what would be the best cluster size
18:17:51preglowdepends if you're going to need many small files or not
18:18:06preglowif not, just choose a big one
18:18:09pinkutankrockbox uses small files

18:18:20preglow_many_ small files
18:18:26preglow.rockbox isn't many files
18:18:26preglowso yeah
18:18:30preglowchoose a big cluster size, then
18:18:43pinkutank16k
18:18:53pinkutankis default
18:18:57pinkutank32k then
18:19:41preglow16k is nice
18:19:56preglowjust go with the defaults, they should be more than good enough
18:20:09preglowand just make sure you make fat32, not ntfs'
18:20:24pinkutanklol i know that much
18:21:05dpassen1why not just use the iriver firmwares format?

19:02:38lamedanyone knows what are the big humps on both of the usb cable end is for? - my guess is it's to prevent static electricity?
19:02:50pinkutankermm i knew
19:02:53pinkutankbut i dont remember
19:02:57dpassen1muesli_-: yes
19:03:04pinkutankhmm
19:03:08pinkutankthinking physics
19:03:19pinkutankthey might be electron accelerators
19:03:23pinkutankto boost speed
19:03:25pinkutankno kidding
19:03:34pinkutankelectrons are ultra slow normally
19:03:44pinkutank3 mm a minute or so
19:03:56muesli_-dpassen1 where can i find it?
19:04:22pinkutankbut then
19:04:35Maximeit's somethign to reduce interferences
19:04:42Maximeif I remember well
19:04:47lamed?! pinkutank, i really don't think that they have them on all cables...
19:04:55dpassen1General Settings -> Display -> Remote-LCD Settings
19:04:58pinkutankthey could be just ferro stuff to hold electro magnetic fields; reducing interference and lowering usb noice, which is much more likely then boosting
19:05:13Maximeyes pinkutank
19:05:14preglowlinuxstb_: there?
19:05:45lamedthe question is what happends if i remove those? i want to make the shortest usb cable, but:
19:05:55pinkutanknothing
19:05:59lameda. i don't know if i can remove one/both of those humps
19:06:00pinkutankyou can safely remove them
19:06:03pinkutankthey are just ferrite
19:06:27lamedb. i've read that if i cut and solder the usb data cable, it won't run as usb2 cable.
19:06:52lamedpink... if it's that safe,,, why are they there in the first place?
19:07:04pinkutankto reduce electrostatic
19:07:11pinkutankthey put them one veruything
19:07:14pinkutankI'llr ead more on them

19:17:58pinkutanki really dont know why
19:18:02pinkutankby the way
19:18:18pinkutankyou can remove your ferrite beads but its better to keep one near your computer

19:37:00lamedwho knows his way around multimeters? i'm trying to read the ac voltage of the iriver's charger.
19:38:26LinusNthe *ac* voltage?
19:38:35LinusNhave you opened it up?
19:39:53pinkutankwhere do you want to read lamed
19:40:45Slasherilamed: you should put some (but not much) load to the charger dc output before trying to measure it
19:41:43lamedwhat i've done was simply connecting it to the wall and reading it, setting the multimeter on "ACV 200"
19:42:26lamedthe reading was... 11.1
19:42:31Slasherieh..
19:42:38SlasheriWhy did you set it to AC?
19:42:48SlasheriWhere did you read that value?
19:42:55lamedi have no idea. why not?
19:43:06lamed(from the multimeter screen...)
19:43:23pinkutankbecause its dc
19:43:25lamedyes it should be dc
19:43:29Slasheriif you measured the dc jack, it gives dc voltage.. So with ac setting you have a very incorrect reading
19:43:36lamed:(
19:43:43lamedsec
19:44:00pinkutankwhy dont you just ask me the value
19:44:06pinkutank5v
19:44:16pinkutankanything that charges from usb is 5v
19:44:27lamedyey. set to sc 200 : i get 5.5 sounds good..?
19:44:34pinkutankyes
19:44:39Slasherilamed: it's on the safe margin
19:44:40lamedset to dcv
19:44:41pinkutankwhy do you need it tho
19:45:08lamedi'm trying to make the usb cable remamber..? and everyone has to know how to work with a multimeter eventually...
19:45:14pinkutankoh oh
19:45:24pinkutankno worries on usb output killing you iriver
19:45:34lamedof course there is!
19:45:35pinkutankmost likely it would commit suicide before it did it

19:45:47pinkutankbut still most likely
19:46:09pinkutankmyh 120 has a purple front and a green baCK
19:46:17lamedi've already done that (bricked my player) for 5 times for the first year i've had it. ever since that (1.5 year more) it hasn't even scratched.
19:46:38pinkutankHOW DID YOU BRICK IT
19:46:41pinkutankOOOPS

19:46:56lamedWHAT?
19:47:09pinkutanki said how did you brick it

21:37:54TiMiDwoulnd't it be the time to switch high level drawing fn to multi-screenand unify low level with macros
21:37:55LinusNMoos: i want it
21:38:04Moos:) I did sure
21:38:29LinusNTiMiD: you mean lcd_puts & friends?
21:38:35TiMiDyes
21:38:54LinusNas long as the performance is the same...
21:38:55TiMiDhigh level fn would be slightly changed
21:39:08TiMiDand low level used with macros
21:39:31Kyl3hey linus, this may sound stupid, but if im in Linux, can I download the source bleeding edge, and compile the bootloader for the h300 and install rockbox on it? (Im not going to do it but would that work)
21:39:34TiMiDdisplay->put_pixel would become put_pixel(display) and would be a macro
21:39:49LinusNKyl3: yes
21:40:07TiMiDdisplay->puts would become puts(display, .. ) and would be a real fn

21:42:43TiMiDsince it's a low level fn and it differs depending on the hardware
21:43:10TiMiDbut high level fn like fonts and so on are the same for all plateforms
21:44:14LinusNTiMiD: afaik, put_pixel isn't involved in text drawing anyway
21:44:35TiMiDyes
21:44:45LinusNso it might be easier than you think
21:44:47TiMiDbut it would make the whole lcd access uniform
21:44:54TiMiDto change all fn
21:45:11LinusNi agree

21:47:34preglowif putpixel is involved in anything at all, perhaps with the exception of draw_line() or something, it's wildly inefficient
21:48:44linuxstb_It's called drawpixel, and some of the plugins use it.
21:48:59linuxstb_But you're right - it's probably horribly inefficient.
21:49:11preglowahh, how i fondly remember frustrated people wondering why their putpixel() using drawing routines were so slow...
21:49:50preglowhow i also don't at all miss the "what's the fastes possible putpixel" discussions of old

21:58:36LinusNamiconn_: lcd_puts() etc
21:58:43amiconn_hmm.
21:59:02amiconn_I'm not sure whether this is a good idea
21:59:16amiconn_How do you intend to handle e.g. scrolling?
21:59:33TiMiDLinusN: for the plugins, it's not ported yet
21:59:42amiconn_If you don't want to overcomplicate things, you need one thread per display
21:59:52TiMiDamiconn_: scrolling is high level isn't it
22:00
22:00:03amiconn_It's not
22:00:11amiconn_Scrolling runs in a separate thread
22:00:17amiconn_It has to
22:00:21hshah_when skipping tracks now, it shows the file name b4 showing the id3 info
22:00:28TiMiDI know it's threaded
22:00:44TiMiDbut I don't see the problem
22:00:53TiMiDyou can have application level threads
22:01:12amiconn_Scrolling can't be highlevel because it depends on the display properties
22:01:33hshah_ie if the file name is Test - Test 2.mp3 it will show that as the track name, and then it will change to show Test as the artist and Test 2 as the track name...
22:01:36amiconn_It will even more depend on that as soon as we handle attributes
22:02:02amiconn_That's a big drawback atm - you can't scroll a gray and a black line of text
22:02:40TiMiDI don't seelow level code in the scrolling code
22:03:19hshah_hmm... mebbe this is happening in my wps coz i have a %fn in there... lol
22:03:49hshah_but it never happened b4
22:03:49tucozhshah, even if there is other info in the id3?
22:04:13tucozhshah, nah, that is because Slasheri implemented that just a few days ago.
22:04:43hshah_oh rite
22:04:46hshah_its a bit annoying
22:05:10TiMiDamiconn_: could you explain why scrolling has to be in kernel level ?
22:05:15 Part tucoz
22:05:43Slasherihshah_: that's because at the moment we don't have real id3 tag information available
22:06:01Slasheriof course we could try to parse the filename better but that will be hard
22:06:06hshah_how did it do it b4?
22:06:08SlasheriThe real information is displayed as soon as it is available
22:06:23Slasherihshah_: before there was a huge delay
22:06:32SlasheriNow it's instant and that is the cost for it
22:06:34amiconn_TiMiD: Scrolling accesses internal variables of the driver, e.g. the scrolling_lines flags
22:06:34 Quit webguest40 ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
22:06:55hshah_fair enough
22:07:17 Part len0x
22:07:23hshah_if u wait like 10 secs b4 u change to the next track, it doesn't do it on the next one...
22:07:31hshah_it only does it when u skip quickly
22:07:40amiconn_...and with the addition of attributes, the scroll code will differ depending on the lcd depth etc
22:07:52TiMiDamiconn_: and why would scrolling_lines be an internal var ?
22:07:59TiMiDI mean
22:08:16TiMiDit's not drier related since it's only used by scroll
22:08:28LinusNamiconn: as i see it, it should be possible to have a generic scrolling thread
22:08:34TiMiDand lcd_clear_display
22:08:43TiMiDLinusN: taht was the idea
22:08:52LinusNyes
22:09:18amiconn_LinusN: A generic scrolling thread would be much more complicated than one scrolling thread per display
22:09:41amiconn_Both displays can have different scroll speeds
22:10:06LinusNamiconn: i mean moving the threads from the lcd driver to the app code
22:10:54amiconn_Hmm. I'm still not convinced
22:10:55TiMiDyes 2 threads
22:11:24TiMiD1 thread would be more complicated and more cpu-time consuming

22:49:35amiconnWhen I tried today I was unable to reproduce it
22:49:46amiconnFont was xtal-14, in the h300 win32 sim
22:50:45TiMiDif you are able to reproduce it, please tell me

22:51:30linuxstb__After the next build, we should have a nice green line all the way across the top of the build table. It's been a long time...
22:51:43amiconnTiMiD: Now I could reproduce it
22:53:23TiMiDonly when returning from a plugin ?
22:54:00amiconnYes. 'star' definitely causes it
22:54:23linuxstb__amiconn: If I understand what you've been saying about scrolling, you want to keep separate copies of the scrolling code in the three bitmap lcd drivers?
22:54:44TiMiDok
22:55:01TiMiDwhen I will be able to build again I will investigate
22:56:16amiconnlinuxstb__: The scrolling code is quite similar between the drivers now, because it lacks the important ability to keep attributes per scrolling line
22:57:04amiconnThis makes colour support in wps impossible, so it has to be added
22:57:11hardeepamiconn: what device are you seeing the follow playlist bug? It worked fine for me on the h120
22:57:19amiconnh140
22:57:41amiconnfollow playlist works when stopping a resumed playlist, but not when a resumed playlist ends
22:57:52TiMiDamiconn: scrolling lines could have attributes, per device
22:58:05TiMiDwith a struct scrolling line
22:58:24TiMiDand attributes present or not trought #ifdefs
22:58:27amiconnYes, but 1 bit lcds will have less attributes than 2bit and higer
22:58:58amiconn#ifdefs don't solve the differences between the LCDs
22:59:04hardeepamiconn: dircache on or off?
22:59:08amiconnon
22:59:42amiconne.g. the h1x0 main lcd is 2bit, the remote lcd is monochrome

23:00:20TiMiDand ?
23:00:31amiconnThe structure could contain the additional attributes as soon as one of the lcds need it, but that creates additional problems as the high level code must handle the differences
23:00:38TiMiDwe could just have a color attribute
23:00:49amiconnDid you see my comment regarding screen-access.[ch] ?
23:00:53TiMiDyes
23:01:07amiconnThat's a similar thing
23:01:20TiMiDyou removed charcell remote (which wasn't a bad idea hehe)
23:01:29amiconnNot only
23:01:34***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
23:01:44amiconnI mean the comment regarding certain combinations
23:02:07TiMiDI see

23:02:29TiMiDthat's why I put a depth atribute in the screen struct
23:02:44TiMiDto handle the remote lack of set_background
23:02:45amiconnYes, but it's not checked everywhere
23:03:35amiconnYou set unused fn ptrs to NULL, but nothing prevents app code from calling them
23:04:07TiMiDthe app code I changed checked for that
23:04:24TiMiDbut now that wehave a lcd_remote_set_background
23:04:34amiconnWe don't
23:04:37TiMiDit's not useful to check for that
23:04:55amiconnI just fixed the #ifdef
23:05:00 Quit refranS ("Abandonando")
23:05:19amiconnlcd_remote_set_background only exists for remote lcd depths > 1
23:05:28amiconn...which we don't have yet
23:05:49TiMiDbut it exists even if it does nothing isn't it ?
23:06:00amiconnNo, it doesn't exist
23:06:00TiMiDsince you can get a pointer on it ...
23:06:06TiMiDscreen->set_background=&lcd_remote_set_background;
23:06:15amiconnDid you check the #ifdef?
23:06:22amiconnThat's what I fixed
23:06:37TiMiDhmm
23:06:39amiconn#if LCD_REMOTE_DEPTH > 1
23:06:42TiMiDI see
23:06:56amiconnThat's false for all currently supported remotes
23:06:58 Quit arkascha (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
23:07:25amiconnBtw, this very function will also become the most problematic when there will ever be a non-monochrome remote
23:07:29TiMiDbut the app code has to check for the depth of the screen it's writing on
23:07:34amiconn(greyscale or colour)
23:07:53amiconn...since the pixel formats are most likely different
23:09:50 Join arkascha [0] (n=arkascha@xdsl-195-14-223-20.netcologne.de)
23:10:02TiMiDmore over than that h300 has both monochrome and color display
23:10:14TiMiDthat what sounds the most problematic to me
23:10:28 Join akaidiot [0] (n=nope@217.28.34.35)
23:12:26amiconnThe h300 colour/monochrome combos is no more (and no less) problematic than the h1x0 greyscale/monochrome combo
23:12:48TiMiDit is because the fn won't be the same
23:12:53amiconnColours handling is no different from greyscale
23:12:57TiMiDthe prototype
23:12:58amiconnThe fn is the same
23:14:04TiMiDI don't know how greyscale is handled ...
23:14:04amiconnThat was one reason why I changed colour lcd handling to use packed rgb values instead of struct rgb
23:14:26amiconnstruct rgb is no more, all pixel values are unsigned it now

23:15:08TiMiDhmm
23:15:10TiMiDI see
23:15:15amiconnThat was a few days ago...
23:15:38TiMiDbefore each change of color you chnage the foreground
23:15:48TiMiDthen apply the drawing fn
23:17:19amiconnlinuxstb__: Is there a reason why current_tick has to be signed on ipod?
23:19:07TiMiDamiconn: with packed rgb, no problem then, the API remains the same
23:19:34amiconnYes, as long as only one lcd is greyscale or colour, and the other stays monochrome
23:21:56TiMiDwhat the problem with 2 color lcd ?
23:22:23TiMiDor 1 greyscale and 1 color
23:22:40amiconnIf the pixel formats are different, screen->set_background(LCD_WHITE); will only be correct for the main screen
23:22:42Kyl3o wow
23:22:50Kyl3the new build is perfect
23:23:06amiconnsince LCD_WHITE will be different from LCD_REMOTE_WHITE
23:23:49Kyl3Since its perfect that means we'll have a relese REALLY soon eh?
23:24:02amiconnIt's far from perfect
23:24:06TiMiDyes, but that's the app job to handle this
23:24:18amiconnYes, but how?
23:24:30TiMiDmaybe some fn that would convert a standard format to the lcd format
23:24:38amiconnhmm.
23:24:39Kyl3well. i mean perfect as in no bugd

23:26:07amiconnTiMiD: I suppose this rgb() would be present only when there is at least one colour lcd
23:26:14TiMiDhmm
23:26:21amiconnThat leaves us with a ton of interdependency problems

23:26:30 Join Moos [0] (i=DrMoos@m79.net81-66-158.noos.fr)
23:26:46amiconnLike, this function has to be implemented at the driver level, because it's the driver that knows the format
23:26:49TiMiDmaybe it could convert it to grayscale when the given display is gray
23:26:59amiconnYes it can
23:27:25TiMiDand to monochrome format for monochrome lcd XD
23:27:40amiconnBut, the thing is that e.g. rgb() has to be implemented in a greyscale remote lcd driver when the main display is colour, but not when the main lcd is greyscale (or mono)
23:28:28amiconnPerhaps that can be handled at the app level though
23:28:32TiMiDyes of cours it's per display
23:29:10amiconnA greyscale driver would implement gray(), and a colour driver would implement rgb()
23:29:13TiMiDsince it depends of the lcd internal sructure, it must be handled by the driver
23:29:33amiconnThen the app layer would implement rgb() for any greyscale lcd in a colour-capable device
23:29:41amiconn...by calling gray() itself
23:30:23TiMiDyes 2 layer would be good
23:30:37TiMiDa driver that just converts to the lcd format
23:30:59amiconnPerhaps, but certainly not for cutting code size...
23:31:09TiMiDand an application layer that converts between rgb, grey and monochrome then calls the display
23:31:13amiconnAnyway, this is a future problem
23:31:18TiMiDhehe
23:31:31amiconnFor monochrome there is no conversion necessary
23:31:49amiconnMonochrome fg and bg 'colours' are fixed
23:31:53TiMiDsince there isn't lcd_set_foreground/background in h300 display driver :)
23:32:02amiconnThere is
23:32:13 Join linuxstb [0] (n=5343d4aa@labb.contactor.se)
23:32:27TiMiDbut if I want to use rgb format on a monochrome display ...
23:32:37amiconn??
23:32:53linuxstbamiconn: No, I just changed current_tick to be signed to be consistent with the rest of Rockbox.
23:33:01amiconn?
23:33:05TiMiDwe can describe Black or white with rgb
23:33:12amiconncurrent_tick is unsigned in all other ports
23:33:43linuxstbNo it isn't.
23:33:51linuxstbIn kernel.c it's defined as "long".
23:33:56amiconnTiMiD: Yes, but why should we? It would only increase code size for no benefit
23:33:59TiMiDit's just a matter of converting it to b&w and then to pass the virtual b&w value to the driver that will convert it to the lcd format
23:34:28TiMiDamiconn: applications on the H300 could use rgb for both screens
23:34:29amiconnlinuxstb: Hmm, you're right
23:34:41LinusNwhat a nice bug
23:34:43linuxstbI kept meaning to ask why it is signed.
23:35:04amiconnTiMiD: Yes, but why??????
23:35:09amiconnWasting code?
23:35:26TiMiDno
23:35:29amiconnyes
23:35:38TiMiDusing the same code to handle different displays
23:35:53amiconnYes, and wasting code on monochrome-only devices
23:36:27linuxstbTiMiD: The big advantage of using RGBPACK is to do the packing at compile-time instead of runtime.
23:36:53amiconnI agree that we could have a 3-level colour setting scheme, based on the highest level the device supports (colour->grey->mono)
23:37:16amiconnThe functions wouldn't exist at all when the device is monochrome only (archos)
23:37:39amiconnFor greyscale devices (h1x0) onyl the greyscale level would exist
23:38:22amiconnlinuxstb: Yes, but that approach doesn't work when the formats are different per screen
23:39:00TiMiDit could work if we rewrite the apps twice (which is a very bad idea)
23:39:34amiconnOf course. This is how it was before the multi-screen routines
23:40:23amiconnTo clarify, I'm not against multi-screen support, I just want to point out possible problems, and preferably find a solution
23:40:36amiconn...which works ok, isn't dirty, and doesn't waste resources
23:41:31TiMiDwell even on monochrome devices, a dummy rgb that would look at r,g,b and return "white" if 255,255,255 is given, blach otherwise
23:42:06amiconnThat's something I would like to avoid
23:42:22amiconnIt would add quite some code to the drawing routines
23:42:26TiMiDI assume this shouldn't increase the code size
23:42:43TiMiDuh ?
23:43:13TiMiDit's just a if , a else an 2 returns
23:43:23TiMiDfor monochrome displays
23:43:34TiMiDwith this, everything is rgb
23:43:35amiconnThey currently assume background is always white and foreground is always black
23:44:53amiconnChanging that would definitely increase code size
23:45:17TiMiDif we don't handle this, we have 2 choices
23:45:39TiMiD1/ dummy set forground/background for monochrome lcd
23:46:15TiMiD2/ test at application level the screen depth (what I did, but which is maybe not a good idea)
23:47:02amiconnI'd vote for (1), in app layer, and only present if at least one display is 'higher' than monochrome
23:47:30amiconnSame goes for colour->greyscale conversion
23:48:22TiMiDthis would add ifdefs
23:49:04 Quit hardeep (" HydraIRC -> http://www.hydrairc.com <- The dawn of a new IRC era")
23:50:42amiconnYes, but this way we will get the smallest possible code size on all devices
23:51:42amiconnAn empty function is really tiny, but if it's called a lot this will still increase the code size.
23:52:02amiconnThe caller would still set up the parameters and perform the call
23:52:42amiconnThat's similar to how the FOR_NB_SCREENS() macro saved almost 1KB on archos
23:53:05TiMiDkevin@harkonnen ~/rockbox-devel $ grep -r "set_background" *|wc
23:53:05TiMiD 18 46 1220
23:53:05TiMiDkevin@harkonnen ~/rockbox-devel $ grep -r "set_foreground" *|wc
23:53:05TiMiD 28 70 2069
23:53:22amiconn?
23:53:53TiMiDtotal calls to set_background and set_foreground in the whole code is under 46
23:54:20TiMiDif we are talking about the same thing, do you think it worse it ?
23:54:58amiconnI guess this would add roughly 1KB on archos
23:56:21amiconnIt means 46 times loading the parameter, the function address, saving the scratch registers(!) and call the function
23:57:43TiMiDif we can do this without hurting the code lisibility too much, like you did with FOR_NB_SCREENS, I totally agree

23:58:50amiconnI think we can, perhaps with similar macro magic
