#rockbox log for 2005-11-24

00:00:06amiconnThe LED is (mis)used as a recording indicator on archos recorders because it's a nice red LED
00:00:25amiconn..so the ATA driver isn't allowed to touch the LED during recording
00:01:20 Quit Lear ("Chatzilla 0.9.68.5.1 [Firefox 1.5/undefined]")
00:03:42amiconnTiMiD: Hehe, now it works but the icon is wrong.
00:03:49amiconnFlash disk icon :)
00:04:08TiMiDoh yes I took the default Icon :p
00:04:18 Quit matsl (Remote closed the connection)
00:04:24TiMiD(I'm vert bad when it comes to do graphics )
00:05:10TiMiDI'm thinking about moving the enable / disable process for leds into the led driver
00:05:27amiconn?
00:05:41TiMiDif Iunderstand
00:05:53amiconnImho it doesn't belong there
00:06:27amiconnata_led_enable() is not about enabling the LED, it's about allowing the ATA driver to access the LED
00:06:34TiMiDyes
00:06:43TiMiDI understand that
00:07:10TiMiDbut it could also be available for other parts of the code
00:07:18TiMiDsince it doesn't costs anything ...
00:07:57TiMiDdisk_led_set_enable function in led.C
00:08:44amiconnIt *is* available for other code. apps/recorder/recording.c uses it
00:08:45TiMiDblocking the leds is something that belongs to the led driver
00:08:50TiMiDyes
00:08:53TiMiDit is available
00:09:01amiconnThe thing is that the led is *not* blocked
00:09:05 Quit RotAtoR ("Leaving")
00:09:34TiMiDbut what I mean is that it should be more general than ata_
00:09:51*amiconn doesn't get the point
00:09:53amiconnWhy?
00:10:13amiconnIt's the ata driver who is told not to mess with the LED.
00:10:43TiMiDhehe we don't see the things the same way
00:10:55 Join andyat11 [0] (n=459d4d95@labb.contactor.se)
00:11:05andyat11Hey\
00:11:16TiMiDI see it more like the led code which is told not to respond
00:11:21TiMiD(in my logic)
00:11:41andyat11Does anyone know how to hack the firmware on the pmp 120 (iriver)
00:12:17amiconnTiMiD: If you tell the LED code not to respond, how would the other app use the LED then?
00:12:23Bagderandyat11: it runs a uclinux on an arm7, should be "easy" enough
00:12:53TiMiDthe app that blocks the leds unblocks them
00:12:56 Join Febs [0] (n=cfac7a51@labb.contactor.se)
00:13:06TiMiDexacly like it should be done now :)
00:13:10amiconn???????
00:13:20andyat11im trying to see if I can add formats etc like .swf
00:13:42TiMiDjust a function name change and a file move
00:13:54andyat11then see if it can be done with flash to use different controls
00:14:00TiMiDwell
00:14:02amiconnThe app would block the led because it wants to use it exclusively, but can't access it because it's blocked. When it unblocks the LED it would also be accessible for the ata driver again
00:14:48TiMiDright now the app tells the ata driver "hey don't use the leds"
00:15:43TiMiDin my logic it should be more that the app tells the led "hey don't react to anything else than unblock"
00:15:54TiMiDwhich is the same
00:16:08TiMiDexcepted that it's not the ata driver but theled code that does it
00:16:09amiconnYes, but the how???? would the app use the LED *while* it is blocked?
00:16:25andyat11anyone know if rockbox will work on pmp series?
00:16:32Bagderandyat11: it does not
00:16:41Bagderandyat11: we're waiting for you to make it
00:16:52Kyl3Shamrock Man is working on PMP firmware
00:16:52ender`amiconn: did you see my H120 scan with rockbox logo on screen?
00:17:06TiMiDamiconn: it would unblock it when the need for blocking is finished
00:17:33TiMiDagain, it's not a functionnality change
00:17:36BagderTiMiD: what would the point be of changing the naming/concept/approach ?
00:17:43amiconnYou still didn't answer *how* the app would use the LED *while* it is blocked.
00:18:06amiconnBlocked means inaccessible, for everyone
00:18:07TiMiDthe app doesn't use led, it's the ata driver that uses them
00:18:11TiMiDyes
00:18:15TiMiDinaccessible
00:18:27amiconnThen you really didn't get the point
00:18:47TiMiDso what the point exactly ?
00:18:52amiconnrecording.c forbids the ata driver to access the LED because it uses the LED for itself
00:19:01ender`anyway, http://deeperthought.ena.si/imgs/ROCKbox-iHP-120.jpg
00:19:12TiMiDoww
00:19:13TiMiDok
00:19:21TiMiDthen in ata driver it's fine :)
00:19:29andyat11Kyl3 I added him to msn or watever yahoo hes never on
00:20:01amiconnThe only more general concept I can imagine would be to introduce LED ownership and priorities. But that would be a little over the top, imho
00:20:24Bagderender`: neat
00:20:34TiMiDI thought the reocd code wanted t stip the leds because it would maybe reduce the sound quality, like the iriver remote or smth like this
00:20:55TiMiDyep we don't need this kind of complexity
00:21:06ender`i cheated actually, that was a JPEG showing on the screen :)
00:21:18amiconnNo it simply wants to use the red LED as a recording indication.
00:21:39TiMiDhehe at least it's clear in my mind now :)
00:21:45ender`(and i confirmed that XP x64 also crashes when trying to read the screendumps :)
00:21:46amiconnFlashes while recording paused, on while recording
00:21:54ender`anyway, i'm off to bed
00:22:12TiMiDI wanted also to discuss about something that I had in mind
00:22:19TiMiDabout the screen_access
00:22:38andyat11Kyl3 u there?
00:22:58TiMiDcurrently, everything is done by screen
00:23:07 Quit tim66 (Read error: 113 (No route to host))
00:23:27andyat11anyone have a pmp 120 or 140
00:23:28andyat11?
00:24:08preglowamiconn: is address 0 "invalid" for all current rockbox platforms?
00:24:18amiconnnope
00:24:24TiMiDso apps uses the same screen and can write on the others areas
00:24:26preglowseems it wont be for ipod either
00:24:38amiconnDepends how you define 'invalid' though
00:24:42TiMiDI thought it would be nice to have some kind of zone defining
00:25:12preglowamiconn: well, it's never invalid as such, it's kind of a pointless question, i guess, no ordinary code should write or read there anyway
00:25:15TiMiDscrolling would be done inside a zone, no need for margins wit that
00:25:17 Quit gromit` (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
00:25:27amiconnIt's an accessible address on all current platforms, but code normally shouldn't access it
00:25:34andyat11guys is it possible to take the firmware from the ipod and put it on the pmp?
00:25:41 Quit ender` (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
00:25:42Bagderandyat11: no
00:25:43TiMiD(I don't know how to explain it very well in englis ...)
00:25:48andyat11i know its risky but changing like clicking and that
00:25:50amiconnOn iriver the flash starts at 0, on archos the boot ROM is located there
00:25:57preglowflash starts at 0 on ipod as well
00:26:04preglowbut i'm going to remap it to be sram
00:26:06preglowsdram
00:26:16amiconnAny reason for this?
00:26:25preglowexception vectors are at 0 for arm

00:26:41andyat11o ya wat about the swf can u make ur iriver recongnize that?
00:26:41amiconnAlways at 0, no VBR?
00:26:47preglowamiconn: no vbr
00:26:57amiconnstrange concept...
00:27:03preglowandyat11: why the hell would we want that?
00:27:05Bagderandyat11: if you write code for it, then it would be possible
00:28:31preglowamiconn: well, arm tries to be as low complexity as possible, it seems
00:28:46preglowamiconn: so if they can shave off some transistors by not having a vbr, that's what they'll do, and indeed, did
00:28:46 Quit Kohlriba ("Leaving")
00:29:06andyat11Bagder so that you can play games via flash and theres a ton of games people would love with it
00:29:23Bagderandyat11: we have numerous games anyway
00:29:33preglowamiconn: portalplayer specific parts have some other exception vectors, but they're exclusive to the pp5020, and i thought i'd take the remap route in case we'd ever need to support pp5002
00:29:55Kyl3speaking of which whats everyones high score in snake2 ;P
00:30:06preglowbesides, this route will make the code compatible with other arm targets as well
00:31:31andyat11Bagder? wat games??? You have games on your pmp?
00:31:32drumrboy specific parts have some other exception vectors, but they're exclusive to the pp5020, and i thought i'd take the remap route in case we'd ever need to support pp5002

00:32:02andyat11O thats wat u mean
00:32:09andyat11but none for pmp
00:32:19Bagderso port rockbox to it
00:32:33andyat11rockbox will work on it?

00:55:40morpheousxI have a FUJITSU laptop hdd i took from my creative mps player,i wanted to use it in my laptop,the hdd is 40gigs,the mp3 player won't work anymore so i figured i'd use it in my laptop but i think it' locked, the bios in my dell laptop does'nt see it and when i try to put in my winxp cd, it says that there is no hdd found,then winxp reboots and my laptop goes to a screen where it says the hdd is password protected
00:55:47 Quit andyat11 ("CGI:IRC")
00:56:20Bagderit sounds like a lock
00:56:25morpheousxhmm...

00:56:52*Bagder recall the old days of rockbox fun
00:57:18morpheousxany software anyone can reccomend?
00:57:18BagderZagor wasted a whole series of hard drives that way ;-)
00:58:12BagderI don't think the software is the problem. The problem is to get your hands on a password to unlock it
00:58:33morpheousxwell..this laptop was'ntmeant for a pc
00:58:52morpheousxit came out of a creative mps player
00:59:14morpheousxmp3 player*
00:59:34morpheousxI think it works like an xbox hdd
01:00
01:00:14morpheousxso i guess i'm out of luck?
01:00:26Bagderit doesn't matter
01:00:26Bagdera lock, if it is a lock, is at ATA level
01:00:38morpheousxone question
01:00:50morpheousxI ran ontrack on it
01:01:02morpheousxand it says that there is no hdd
01:01:16morpheousxwould a locked hdd hide itself ?
01:01:34morpheousxi thought it would atleast see the hdd
01:03:31***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
01:04:13Bagderand for obvious reasons there isn't just a big red button to unlock it
01:04:13Bagderyou need to send the proper password to it to unlock

01:39:50preglowamiconn: no leds at all
01:40:19amiconnWhat about adding a virtual LED to the status bar then, like on Ondio and (now actually working) iriver remote?
01:40:35hshahguys - you know where the usb remote logo is?
01:40:36preglowi think that sounds great
01:40:38hshahwhat file is it in?
01:40:58amiconnpreglow: It's now just a matter of adding a #define to config-ipod*.h
01:41:19preglowamiconn: currently it's got an equivalant in the ondio flash softled, yes?
01:41:46amiconnI added a basic HD icon
01:42:03preglowat least i get a flash icon at disk accesses now
01:42:10amiconn(in fact I sort-of reinstated this icon, it was used before we had the flash disk icon)
01:42:29amiconnyou do?
01:42:36preglowyeah, i get one at bootup
01:42:39preglowthen it goes away
01:44:10amiconnI was surprised that the iPod nano uses the (disk) ata driver, although it is flash based
01:44:41preglowyup, me too
01:44:46preglowbut relieved :)
01:45:23amiconnHeh, after all I think the Ondio MMC driver was fun to implement (although I thought different back then), and I learned a lot
01:45:34preglowof course
01:45:41preglowbut there's more than enough to be done for this port already
01:45:48preglowso i'm pretty glad i don't have to mess with that
01:46:14amiconnNow there is the problem that the flash disk icon would be more appropriate on nano
01:46:51amiconn....but direct checks for platform are discouraged
01:47:36preglowyou know, i think a disk icon will do just fine
01:47:47 Quit iCe21_00 ()
01:48:08hshahTiMiD - which file is the remote usb hex in again?
01:48:12preglowit doesn't really matter, for ondio i think it's more appropriate, after all, there is a practical difference, the user _knows_ that he's dealing with flash memory
01:48:57amiconnYeah, it's even extendable
01:50:03amiconnMhm, no _Firefly_
01:50:23amiconnThe rwps loader seems to have a bug
01:50:44amiconnAfter loading an .rwps, I got periodic bursts of static during mp3 playback
01:50:51amiconnA reboot fixed that
01:50:59preglowouch
01:54:08*amiconn is puzzled
01:54:58amiconnMaybe there's a different gcc version used for the iPod builds?
01:55:11amiconnDifferent from archos targets that is
01:55:40preglow3.4.4
01:55:43amiconnShould've gotten the same warnings & yellow for Ondio as the ones for iPod
01:55:48amiconnHokey
01:56:04preglowthere are such differences, some times
01:56:17amiconnMaybe I should build myself arm-elf-gcc, just to check such things
01:56:21hshahamiconn / preglow do you know?
01:59:01amiconnThe virtual LED is already enabled for iPod builds

02:15:04preglowdo you think the software and hardware eq should be able to operate together?
02:15:41amiconnDo you mean the audio codec treble/bass settings?
02:15:47amiconnIf so, why not?
02:16:17preglowjust wondering how to handle the prescale in that case
02:16:36amiconnWhich prescale?
02:17:27preglowlike you do with the audio codec one, if you amp up a band, there's a prescaler you can apply to the audio to gain it down before the eq, then you gain it up afterwards with the main volume control
02:17:31amiconnThe prescale in the UDA is applied to the digital data output of the CPU, so it only depends on the UDA treble & bass setting
02:17:31preglowto prevent clipping
02:17:49preglowwe'll need a software prescale for the software eq as well, i guess
02:17:58amiconnPrescaling for the EQ has to be done within the EQ code
02:18:02preglowyeah
02:18:08preglowit's just an extra mul. no biggie
02:18:24preglowi think i'll add an overall gain control to the eq anyway

02:19:10amiconnBtw, I'm thinking about removing the code part that corrects the main volume to account for lowering the prescaler with increasing bass/treble
02:19:11preglowit'll be really fun to see how this eq performs
02:19:19amiconnThis would have 2 advantages
02:19:31amiconn(1) it would simplify the code.
02:19:57preglowso when you boost bass, what in reality happens is you lower the rest of the spectrum instead?
02:20:04amiconn(2) The volume would be always be lowered when boosting bass or treble, not only above a certain threshold
02:20:40preglowthat is what would happen, right?
02:21:13amiconnThis means that (a) you'll immediately notice that bass boost means a volume tradeoff and (b) the volume scale stays dB-linear instead of being limited aboce a certain value
02:21:20preglowi don't think that makes sense at all
02:21:27preglowthat's not what people will expect from using an eq
02:21:38preglowi'd rather just do it the iriver way
02:22:01preglowi actually think it'll cause even more complaints and clueless users than what we currently do
02:22:07amiconnRight now there's the effect that with bass fully boosted, it doesn't matter whether you set the volume to 83 or 100, it's exactly the same output
02:22:13preglowyup
02:22:19preglowand i think that's got to go as well
02:22:33preglowi think i basically just want what iriver does, it's what everyone else does
02:22:41amiconnWell we can't have everything

02:22:45amiconnWe have 3 options
02:22:51preglowif they can't hear the clipping, let them have it
02:23:36amiconnThat's not one of the options
02:24:07preglowbut ok, what are the options?
02:24:17 Join Paul_The_Nerd_ [0] (n=paulthen@cpe-70-114-192-167.houston.res.rr.com)
02:24:24amiconnI know how that sounds. Even 4 dB boost made up for *horrible* clipping
02:24:31preglowyup
02:24:54preglowbut you'd be surprised how many people can't hear clipping
02:25:06amiconnHuh?
02:25:21amiconnI agree that people might not able to hear *slight* clipping
02:25:21preglowi've even met people who think 64kbps mp3s sound just peachy, heh
02:25:44preglowyeah, and the degree of clipping depends much on what music you listen to
02:25:58preglowa lot of current music has already been clipped heavily in mastering and production
02:26:00amiconnHere are the options: (1) Leave it as-is (2) Implement my suggestion to leave out the volume correction (3) reduce bass & treble boost at high volume
02:26:18preglowisn't 3 currently what we do?
02:26:23preglowahh, no
02:26:26preglowi'm confused
02:26:28amiconnCurrently I'd vote for (2), because of the volume "platform" occuring witjh (1)
02:26:30FebsIt's the opposite.
02:27:02preglowi don't like 2 at all, it doesn't do what all other eqs on the planet currently do
02:27:16FebsI'd vote for 3.
02:27:17amiconn(3) is imho bad because our treble & bass scales are calibrated (in dB) while the volume scale is not (percent)
02:27:23Febs(Not that my vote counts for anything.)
02:27:31preglowamiconn: yeah, but you can get a rough estimate
02:27:34preglowbut anyway
02:27:39 Nick CBM-away is now known as CheeseBurgerMan (n=BurgerBo@63.150.80.142)
02:27:44preglowlike i said, i just want the settings to be what they are, clipping or not
02:28:00preglowi don't like software to guess what i want
02:28:01Paul_The_Nerd_If you leave it out, people can manually recreate the effect just by altering the values by hand, right?
02:28:12amiconnThe thing is that 90% volume is always 90% of what is possible, but if we reduce a 12 dB bass boost to e.g. 6 dB the display value is clearly wrong
02:28:22Paul_The_Nerd_By leaving it out, you basically increase the level of user control, and the choice to screw up sound becomes their own, no?
02:29:05amiconnYeah, and then some clever guy performs a sound quality comparison.... Noooo, I'd say
02:29:15preglowi'd like the software to prescale/volume fix the audio if the level is low enough for it to work, if not, i want the treble and bass settings to be left alone, and let the clipping commence
02:29:52preglownot all audio will clip either, you know
02:30:07preglowif I happen to know there's enough headroom in this track for eq to work with no clip, i don't wont rockbox to correct me
02:30:14preglows/wont/want/
02:30:25amiconnI'm pretty sure almost all audio will clip. 24 dB is a lot
02:30:38preglow24 db will clip, yes, but there are 12 step inbetween
02:30:51preglowand i have albums where a 10 db gain will go with no clip
02:30:54preglowan extreme example, granted
02:31:20preglowmy point is still this: i know better than rockbox, and i don't want it correcting me
02:31:57amiconnYou may know better than rockbox, but I bet many users don't
02:32:13preglowwell, no, but they're perfectly capable of dealing with it anyway
02:32:16preglowif it sounds bad, they fix it
02:32:33preglowthe concept of 'overload' is pretty widespread, so most people will know what happened and decrease volume
02:32:39amiconnImho it's better to avoid bad sound
02:32:52FebsIsn't there a middle ground? Scale back bass boost as volume is increased, but not on a 1:1 basis.
02:33:02PaulJi don't think the firmware should allow clipping
02:33:06drumrboyi think people should def. have an option...
02:33:07preglowi just want rockbox eq to work like any other eq i've ever used
02:33:07DreamTactix291nor do I
02:33:11FebsE.g., at full volume, bass is scaled lower than 24dB but not to 0.
02:33:14preglowif i overdrive it, then there's clipping
02:33:26preglowyou already see how confused people are when we don't act like they expect we will
02:33:35preglowand in this area, i so no point in not conforming to their expectations
02:33:47drumrboyok, make an advanced version and a n00b version
02:34:05drumrboypeople who understand shouldnt have to suffer for less advanced users
02:34:10preglowbut in any case, i think a poll/voting session would do nicely here
02:34:28drumrboywe can do it in mistic river, if wanted ill start a poll
02:34:29amiconnImho bad sound will cause a bad rockbox experience
02:34:53FebsUnfortunately, I think that many MR users would not even understand what the poll was asking.
02:34:56amiconnWe could do like iriver, provided we have a mechanism to display what's happening
02:35:20drumrboywell, we might as well try, im actually curious... ill add a "wtf is clipping" option
02:35:25FebsRemember that you're talking about the same user base that asks what the difference is between "base" and "trebbel."
02:35:29preglowamiconn: we could have some kind of 'imminent overdrive' indicator, but i think it'd only be useful for this one thing
02:35:45DreamTactix291true
02:35:46amiconn...or give up dB scaling in favor for a vague treble/bass adjustment in percent
02:36:02amiconn(which I wouldn't want)
02:36:02preglowbut anyway
02:36:59preglowall other eqs (i've seen) work like iriver's, and i can't ever having seen someone complain about them clipping
02:37:02PaulJi like drummrboys idea of having a setting entry: avoid clipping: yes/no
02:37:08preglowPaulJ: i'd like to avoid settings
02:37:27preglowanother point in favour of my approach, is that all volume/eq combinations can be realised with it, not so with amiconn's
02:37:31amiconnBtw, regarding the argument 'some music won't clip because of its low level': Isn't that compensated for when using replaygain?
02:37:48preglowamiconn: not necessarily, replaygain doesn't always normalise audio to peak level
02:37:56preglowamiconn: it depends on the replaygain scanner used
02:38:25amiconnAh, yes, it tries to normalise perceived volume
02:38:26 Quit Paul_The_Nerd (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
02:38:27preglowas a matter of fact, it's a rare occasion the time you see a file replaygained to 0 db
02:38:30preglowamiconn: exactly
02:38:49*amiconn never uses replaygain
02:38:57preglowamiconn: in most cases i've stumbled across, replaygain actually applied negative gain, so it's kind of a moot point
02:38:57Paul_The_Nerd_Well, isn't there already a "prevent clipping" setting under replaygain?
02:39:39 Quit hshah (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
02:39:43DreamTactix291Paul_The_Nerd_: that's for replaygain
02:39:48DreamTactix291and that shouldn't be used usually
02:40:02preglowthat's only for preventing the preamp from overdoing things
02:40:07amiconnThe MAS3587 and MAS3539 have an AVC feature that normalises the peak level
02:40:47drumrboyhttp://www.misticriver.net/showthread.php?t=32320
02:40:52drumrboyhttp://www.misticriver.net/showthread.php?t=32320
02:40:57Paul_The_Nerd_I'm just saying that the setting already exists. You've been talking about preventing clipping elsewhere, could there be a global "prevent clipping" option that performed both sorts of functions?
02:41:19preglowdrumrboy: that doesn't mention an eq anywhere
02:41:22*Paul_The_Nerd_ shrugs
02:41:24drumrboyim not sure if thats what we were going for, but i made it anyway ;)
02:41:33drumrboyhaha, idk, i was bored
02:41:36FebsI don't think it is.
02:41:38PaulJdrummrboy:why haven't you started teh poll in the general rockbox forum?
02:42:21*markun is reading neuros irc logs
02:42:24preglowPaul_The_Nerd_: well, perhaps, but again, i'd rather we didn't have an option
02:42:41preglowrockbox already has too many options for most people
02:42:46markunSome things really surprise me: "Video CODECs are not possible to implement on the ARM."
02:42:48drumrboyoh, i guess i didnt even thinkk aout it given i have an h300 so... if DT id here, it can get moved
02:42:50Paul_The_Nerd_I'm just offering up further ideas if a compromise is needed
02:43:07DreamTactix291markun: my PMP-120 has an ARM CPU and it plays video
02:43:14Paul_The_Nerd_I'm personally in favor of "Give the users as much freedom over the sound, and let them screw it up if they want."
02:43:22Febsdrumrboy, I think it should be deleted. If we're going to poll users, some thought needs to be put into the poll.
02:43:23DreamTactix291a CPU can do anything if it's powerful enough and is programmed to do something
02:43:25preglowDreamTactix291: it also has a TI dsp which probably does the video decoding
02:43:29markunDreamTactix291: I also know it's possible :)

02:43:48Paul_The_Nerd_My Nintendo DS has an ARM processor, and there's video in games for it.
02:43:57Paul_The_Nerd_I believe it's an ARM of some sort
02:43:57Drumrboy}{Awaytrue
02:44:00preglowwell, of course it's possible :)
02:44:01DreamTactix291it is

02:44:43Drumrboy}{Awayhaha
02:45:02Drumrboy}{Awaywell, the DS has dual chips iirc
02:45:05Paul_The_Nerd_The PSP also has a really bad looking screen that seems to fade too slow
02:45:12Paul_The_Nerd_I see a lot of ghosting when I've played on 'em.
02:45:14preglowforget me
02:45:16Drumrboy}{Awayhow do you mean?
02:45:18preglowit's got a 67mhz cpu as well
02:45:23preglowit's actually got two arm cores
02:45:28preglowone 67 and one 33
02:45:31Drumrboy}{Awayoh, i have never once noticed that problem
02:45:32DreamTactix291yeah
02:45:33preglowone of them is the same as the one in ipod
02:45:39Paul_The_Nerd_I've seen it on at least 4 PSPs
02:45:52markunI'm wondering what speed we could get ffmpeg to decode mpeg4 files on a 200mhz with a res of 320x240
02:46:08Drumrboy}{Awaythe only screen problem i've had is dead pixels... i have 4 minor
02:46:09markunIt has some ARM assembly
02:46:24preglowmarkun: well, at least i look forward to seeing you try it out :)
02:46:26Paul_The_Nerd_What I don't get is that all the 3D DS games I've played have had Antialiasing, but NO texture filtering
02:46:29Drumrboy}{Awayand it is quite possibly just the game that you were playing
02:46:30Paul_The_Nerd_Generally you expect the opposite.
02:47:14Drumrboy}{Awayfor example, ridge racer blurs alot to give a sense of speed
02:47:17Paul_The_Nerd_Naah, Drumrboy, three different games have done it: Untold Legends, Darkstalkers, and... I'm not really sure what the other was. It was at a store unit for that one.
02:47:30Paul_The_Nerd_It's not an intentional blur. It's slow pixel fading/refresh/change.
02:47:40markunpreglow: I'm looking forward to have ANY code running on it :) (the Gigabeat, which btw will be send to me tomorrow)
02:47:42Drumrboy}{Awayi see then.. ive never noticed that, but i am assuming your right ;)
02:47:46*Paul_The_Nerd_ shrugs
02:47:54preglowmarkun: let's just hope getting code onto it will be easy
02:47:59Paul_The_Nerd_It may not happen on all
02:48:04preglowmarkun: at least i've got some crt0.S code for you to use :)
02:48:10Paul_The_Nerd_I could've just had bad luck, or picked the wrong games, or be overly sensitive

02:49:43markunpreglow: There is a update.sh linux binary, which I suspect is being executed when updating

03:28:44XavierGrI used the line-in instead the external-mic option in iriver fw?
03:28:47XavierGrreally
03:28:48XavierGr?
03:29:12FebsYes. Of course, it was a VERY loud pit orchestra.

04:05:06iCe21_00Can someone explain or link me to the differences in terms of progress between a boot loader and daily builds
04:05:23FebsI could tell it was something bigger than, say, a room in someone's house.
04:05:27Kyl3where the hd spins up and the lcd doesnt turn on and u have to reset it
04:05:47FebsVery nice playing by the way.
04:05:54XavierGr_:) thanks.
04:06:58DreamTactix291iCe21_00: what do you want to know?
04:06:58preglowwhat do you play?
04:07:27XavierGr_classical guitar
04:08:16preglownice
04:08:24iCe21_00I just wanted to know what the differences between the bootloader and the dailybuilds are in terms of progress,
04:09:20DreamTactix291basically here's my understanding
04:09:26DreamTactix291if the bootloader works it works
04:09:40DreamTactix291the daily builds are where the actual program code is
04:09:50DreamTactix291the bootloader is what allows the firmware to boot period
04:10:16iCe21_00but what makes the overall player more stable, the daily builds or an updated bootloader
04:10:31iCe21_00or do they both control different things in terms of stability
04:12:47Paul_The_NerdThe stability is mostly in the daily builds
04:13:03Paul_The_NerdThe bootloader is almost a Yes/No thing. "Yes it works, or no, sorry, it's a brick."
04:13:56Paul_The_NerdThe daily build portion is loaded by the bootloader, and it actually *does* the work. (Sound, User Interface, etc is there) and the daily build portion *shouldn't* be able to ever permanently harm your player
04:14:15iCe21_00so you know how the H300 firmware is "for developpers only right now" with this status more likely to change with more updates in the daily builds or with an updated bootloader
04:14:30iCe21_00is this status*
04:14:31Paul_The_NerdDaily Builds primarily
04:14:36iCe21_00k
04:14:41Paul_The_NerdI hear there *may* be a bug in the bootloader right now
04:14:41iCe21_00thats the answer i was looking for
04:14:46iCe21_00thanks paul
04:14:47Paul_The_NerdI'd wait on installing it for the moment
04:14:52iCe21_00yeah
04:14:55iCe21_00I'm holding off
04:14:57preglowthere are bugs in the bootloader
04:15:13preglowthere seems to be some hardware we didn't know about, for one
04:15:16Paul_The_NerdBut all the progress for functionality is in the daily build.
04:15:57 Quit XavierGr (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
04:16:26iCe21_00So basically once the bootloader has been "mastered" its really more the updates that make the player more stable
04:16:37DreamTactix291pretty much
04:17:06iCe21_00alright
04:17:08iCe21_00thanks guys

04:18:52DreamTactix291it's listed everytime there's a change
04:19:03DreamTactix291there's a changelog you can check daily on the daily builds page
04:19:09Paul_The_NerdIf you look at the front page, it tells anything that's changed
04:19:32DreamTactix291yeah that too

04:27:53iCe21_00hey guys, whats with the .bin file
04:28:02iCe21_00what does it do/for
04:28:54Paul_The_NerdI believe the .bin file is for patching the firmware if you want to do it yourself rather than using fwpatcher. But don't quote me on it.
04:29:57iCe21_00why would you want to do that instead of user the fwpatcher (the only thing I could think of is to tweak the code to customize it?)
04:30:19Paul_The_NerdThat, and the fwpatcher doesn't support all versions of the firmware
04:30:36iCe21_00oh yea?
04:30:40iCe21_00didnt know that
04:30:46iCe21_00which ones doesnt it support
04:30:57Paul_The_NerdMainly older versions. Version numbers prior to the current.
04:31:14iCe21_00rgr
04:31:22Paul_The_NerdAlso, fwpatcher.exe is a windows application. I'm not sure that there's an equivalent for every OS, in fact I think there isn't.

10:36:35JdGordondoes rockbox allow u to play an entire directroy (and sub dirs) without making a playlist first?
10:37:08snarfRockbox only plays playlists
10:37:09DreamTactix291Linus: i meant on the H100 originally
10:37:32snarfYou don't have to save it to a file first though..
10:37:49ashridahJdGordon: you can create it more or less on the fly fairly easily. just hold 'navi' on the toplevel directory and then insert it. if the player's not playing, there won't be a playlist yet
10:38:02JdGordonok
10:38:23ashridahiirc, there's also a 'continue to next directory' mode

10:38:38muesli-iirc?
10:38:47DreamTactix291that was my guess too

11:16:50aliaskHey, I have a spare box that I was thinking about setting up as a rockbox/learning box, what distro of linux do you guys reccomend?
11:17:04*B4gder likes debian
11:17:21B4gderbut for a newbie, I'm not sure that is a good choice
11:17:37aliaskAre you serious? Debian is the only linux I could ever figure out.
11:17:47*B4gder is grown up on unix
11:17:54*bobTHC likes ubuntu
11:18:03ashridahaliask: it doesn't matter too much which distro you use, since you end up building a complete cross-compiler anyway, so the devel environment is fairly self contained.
11:18:18aliaskDo you have to do it from source?
11:18:42B4gderyes
11:18:42aliaskThats one of the things I don't like about linux, having to do most things from source. Sometimes you just can't be bothered.
11:18:48ashridahaliask: someone could probably send you precompiled binaries, but i don't know of any specific official source for an m68k or sh targeted compiler
11:18:51B4gdersource is power
11:18:52LinusNB4gder: so you're not a grown up otherwise ;-)

11:30:41amiconnhuh?
11:30:43B4gderyou can blame me too ;-)
11:30:52LinusNthe PLL was overclocked

14:01:21_FireFly_amiconn is the bug(when loading rwps-files and mp3-playback) only when you load a rwps-file ?? because rwps and wps-files are loaded from the same function
14:02:27_FireFly_only the pointer to wps_data struct changes depending to the wps-screen in wich the file/data-buffer should be loaded/displayed
14:03:58_FireFly_so i have no clue how this bug is only triggered when loading rwps-files

14:21:02_FireFly_btw i have locally a slightly modfied wps-loader running which reduces the ram-usage of the wps-format-data.
14:22:38_FireFly_This loader reads the wps-file line-by-line and lines with following tags didn't gets into the format-buffer: %x,%xl,%we,%wd
14:23:06_FireFly_and also comment-lines
14:23:32_FireFly_so i could reduce the used space in the format-buffer ca. by half for my wps.
14:25:00LinusNhmm, i can't run the h300 reliably above 90mhz...

14:27:50KaggenIn that case there might be a pheripheral device that does not like the bus freq at 45MHz?

14:31:07PaulJbut how does rockboy work on h300? i thought it runs at 120 MHz
14:31:25LinusNit does
14:31:39LinusNbut not on all players, and not every time
14:31:45Kaggenthe BGA package for coldfire allows 140MHz, the QFP allow 120MHz
14:32:02LinusNKaggen: yes, i don't think the frequency itself is the problem
14:32:20LinusNstrangely enough, most of my players have a sticker on the cpu, saying "120"

15:16:07Jungti1234ah sorry
15:16:39Jungti1234It's wps file.
15:16:53DJDD_Heya
15:17:44FebsJungti1234, there is *always* a WPS file in use while you are playing music. But since H300 Rockbox does not yet play music, this is a moot point.
15:17:47Jungti1234If use rockbox firmware of new version, when use wps file, system turns off.
15:18:25DJDD_Hey guys, im looking for the hacked firmware to run rockbox, where can i get it?

15:21:51FebsJungti1234, you should wait until for a more stable version of H300 Rockbox.
15:22:04FebsThe current version is for developers only.

15:22:34Jungti1234I know it.
15:22:46DJDD_Ok, i've DLed the rockbox firmware and the bootloader builder. How do i build it from there? I can't make full sence of the manual

15:57:55LinusNi don't think so
15:58:21amiconnThe next lower setting possible for correct timer would then be 112.89 MHz

15:58:34LinusNi tried the 10, 9 and 8 multipliers
15:58:39LinusN8 worked
15:58:42LinusN90mhz
15:58:48amiconnYes, read that
15:59:06amiconn_FireFly_: I don't know whether it happens for normal .wps as well
15:59:19LinusNdoubling the lcd waitstates gives pretty reliable operation at 124mhz
15:59:31LinusNbut not entirely
15:59:44amiconnI just added an .rwps yesterday (cloned my standard .wps for it), loaded it, then resumed playback
15:59:55amiconnThis resulted in periodic bursts of static
16:00
16:00:04_FireFly_amiconn: the problem should also happen for normal .wps files if there us a problem in the wps-loader
16:00:04amiconnRebooting fixed the problem
16:00:12_FireFly_s/us/is
16:00:36amiconnLinusN: Btw, I suspected the LCD wait states were too short...
16:01:19amiconnIirc the timing is similar to the flash ROM, so LCD should use the same wait states
16:01:24amiconn(H1x0 LCD that is)
16:01:25LinusNyes they are, and we use a slow mode in the lcd itself
16:01:47amiconnDidn't look at the datasheet for the H300 LCD

16:02:35LinusNwebguest85: thx
16:02:58webguest85and a question, is it possible to get the rockboy screen to full ?
16:03:11LinusNyes i believe so
16:03:19webguest85good:d
16:03:30amiconnYes, and there is an additional nop in the LCD driver which is hampering performance at 45 MHz and 11 MHz
16:03:31LinusNrockbox is optimized for the h100
16:03:42LinusNyup
16:03:54amiconnWould it be possible to remove this nop and increase the waitstates at 124 MHz a bit?
16:03:57webguest85is it hard to get the games and other stuff to colour?
16:04:09LinusNamiconn: should work
16:04:36LinusNwebguest85: i don't know

16:27:09LinusNperhaps, or perhaps a collision makes the edges slow
16:27:25LinusNthe button adc is bit-banged
16:27:45LinusNbut i have slowed it down to a crawl, with the same results
16:28:07amiconnAny specific reason? The coldfire does have integrated i2c controllers afair
16:28:36LinusNthe reason is of course that the pcd50606 is connected to port pins and not the i2c controller

16:44:39preglowbtw, amiconn and i differ on how we think the eq should behave. his suggestion is to lower the volume automatically as a side effect of applying gain with the eq, so there is no chance of clipping happening ever. i think there should be no gain changes when applying eq, so that the eq will clip if you're using high volume, but it doesn't steal the possibility of doing so if you know what you're doing either. anyone else have any opinions on this?
16:45:02preglowcurrently the eq uses some hybrid where it only lowers volume if it's too high to not possibly cause clipping

16:47:34LinusNi want to be able to "overdrive" the gain, but I want to know where the limit is
16:48:02LinusNso i don't have to tweak blindly
16:48:04preglowyeah, we also discussed an indicator of some kind
16:48:11preglowbut i don't know how that should look
16:48:31preglowthe problem is that volume is adjusted in percent, while eq uses db
16:48:34LinusNonce upon a time i suggested a volume control that went above 100%
16:48:36preglowso we can only define some rough limit
16:48:41preglowLinusN: i want that as well
16:48:42tucozYes, it should be able to have some sort of indicator for that. Like a ! next to the volume control
16:48:52preglowbut it'll have to be software for iriver
16:48:58preglowi'm doing a software gain control for the eq anyway
16:49:02LinusNbut i would very mush prefer a dB volume control
16:49:29preglowyeah, me too
16:49:34preglownot impossible either
16:49:41LinusNthen there's no doubt where the limit is
16:49:57preglowlet's just ditch the entire uda volume control and use a software one :>
16:50:03LinusN:-)

16:52:30 Join merbanan [0] (i=banan@dalink.campus.luth.se)
16:53:16preglowbut yeah, i believe this will be more important when my parametric eq is finished
16:53:28preglowyou can define pretty narrow bands with high gains, and still be pretty sure it'll never clip
16:53:36preglowbut always prescaling the volume down wont give you that choice
16:53:46preglowand i think it's silly for a firmware like rockbox to limit the users choices
16:54:34tucozby looking at the number of options currently available, that seems like a true statement.
16:54:43preglowexactly
16:54:53preglowwe haven't taken that route before, so i don't see why we should now
16:55:13tucozAs it is, after all, a dap
16:56:06preglowat least i know i'd be pretty pissed if i did a 12 db gain in one band, just to have the entire volume scaled down by 12db to compensate for the nearly impossible clip
16:56:46preglowwe never know how large the possibility of clipping is, se we have to gain everything down by 12db to compensate for the worst case
16:57:00preglows/pissed/pissed off/ :)
16:57:26amiconnLinusN: My point is that allowing overdrive will lead to distortion, i.e. bad sound
16:57:40LinusNof course
16:57:49LinusNs/will/could/
16:57:51amiconnThere are those clever guys trying to compare sound quality without having a clue what they're doing
16:58:26LinusNwe do that on the archos recorder today
16:58:26preglowyeah, but i don't see why we should adjust our firmware to suit them
16:58:34amiconnLinusN: Not really.
16:58:50amiconnFor one, I never made the archos recorder clip noticeably
16:58:51preglowwe've never been about winning usability tests
16:58:57preglowafaik
16:59:20tucozamiconn: Isn't that what it's been like all the time. A lot of people do not understand how rockbox behaves as it is now
16:59:26amiconn...unlike the UDA which clips horribly even at 4dB gain with no prescaling
16:59:27LinusNin any case, i want the iriver algorithm for clipping prevention
16:59:48amiconnRead last night's log
16:59:56preglowyou mean just capping treble and boost when it gets too high?
17:00
17:00:25amiconnIf we reduce bass & treble with increasing volume, this means our settings values are lying
17:00:28preglowi'd just like it to clip horribly, but i'd also like an indicator that this might happen. i have no idea how this should be implemented, though
17:00:39LinusNamiconn: they are lying today too
17:01:26amiconnImho not as much, and even that can be avoided. Bass & treble are in dB, so if we reduce them, the value doesn't match reality
17:01:39preglowbut even
17:01:59LinusNi want the best sound, and i think lowering the bass at high volume is the better choice
17:01:59preglowimagine a five band eq, if you prescale the whole audio band to compensate for a small gain in one band
17:02:03preglowthat just doesn't make sense
17:02:06amiconnHowever, volume is in percent, and that's not a 'calibrated' unit, it's just the percentage of the possible maximum
17:02:18LinusNi want db volume as well :-)
17:02:43amiconnThen this will become even more difficult...
17:03:30preglowmy way isn't difficult at all :)
17:03:49preglowit's the easiest possible, and simultaneously the one that is most logical, hooray for me
17:03:50LinusNbtw, do silent tracks clip horribly at 4db gain too?
17:03:53***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
17:04:36amiconnDo you suggest AVC?
17:04:53LinusNno
17:05:23amiconnDigital clipping is bad both for ears and for equipment
17:05:38preglowit's bad for tweeters, not equipment
17:05:48LinusNit's just that "will clip horribly" is not the absolute truth
17:05:51preglowand it's bad for ears only if you use too loud a volume generally
17:06:08LinusN"might clip horribly" is a better choice of words
17:06:16amiconnOf course, and with lower volume there will be no clipping
17:06:23LinusNyup
17:06:41preglowbut anyway
17:06:56preglowthe only point in this i care about: i know better than rockbox, and i don't want it making my choices for me
17:06:57FebsI like the idea of a clipping indicator.
17:07:13preglowthat makes for a _very_ frustrating user experience
17:07:32preglowas you can already see from the masses of confused users of the current eq behaviour
17:07:39FebsI have a wireless in-ear monitor system for on-stage performance. I has a clipping indicator. Easy to use−−the indicator lights up, turn the volume down.
17:07:48amiconnLinusN: On second thought, the archos does clip with boosted bass or treble _and_ volume above 92, but that seems to be analog clipping

17:07:58LinusNamiconn: it's digital
17:08:01amiconnFebs: The problem is how to indicate clipping
17:08:07preglowFebs: problem is we can't decide strictly when clipping occurs
17:08:15preglowand what amiconn says
17:08:31amiconnLinusN: The volume control of the mas is split into a digital and an analog part, says the datasheet
17:08:48preglowit's almost certainly a digital eq
17:09:45preglowah

17:11:31wubblamuesli-: as i've got no idea, i'm just guessing
17:11:43LinusNpersonally, this issue doesn't really apply to me because i always keep my eq flat :-)
17:11:48preglowwell, me too
17:11:55preglowi've never used it
17:11:57preglowbut still
17:12:13FebsMe too.
17:12:22preglowi'm making one, and will probably end up answering users who're asking why the hell the eq doesn't work as they think it should
17:12:31preglowas every other eq does
17:12:42tucozI am a little confused, how is it that Rockbox can prevent clipping as it is now but not just let clipping occur and tell the user that.
17:12:54LinusNi can live with automatic clip prevention, but i want the bass/treble to be limited instead of the volume
17:12:54preglowtucoz: plain and simple, if you ask for much gain, you don't get it
17:13:07amiconnThis issue doesn't apply to me as well. While I do use bass & treble boost with earphones, I never use volume settings around 80 and above
17:13:09preglowtucoz: too much gain, that is
17:13:29preglowand i never use volume settings below 80 :)
17:13:54preglowi'd hear more traffic than music, if i did
17:13:57amiconnWith my earphones I normally use values around 60
17:14:13 Quit Mongey| ()
17:14:14_FireFly_me too
17:14:15amiconn...occasionally up to 70
17:14:32Febspreglow: I use in-ear monitors to block outside noise.
17:14:56amiconnNo in-canal phones here, just plain Sennheiser MX450
17:15:00FebsI already have some minor hearing loss from 25 years of performing on loud stages. I can't risk running volume so high.
17:15:19tucozyes, I get that part. But the calculation that prevents clipping must be based on some values. If those values are above the clipping-preventing-level, then show that as an indicator
17:15:40preglowi already have some minor hearing loss from being a bloody fool
17:15:46preglowbut nothing much
17:16:01Febstucoz, if I understand the current method, it limits gain whether there is actual clipping or not.
17:16:08preglowFebs: indeed
17:16:12preglowFebs: which is the essence of the issue
17:16:29tucozI see
17:16:31preglowit limits it because the worst case audio would clip, and never gives you a choice yourself
17:16:35LinusNi'd go for an option, "prevent clipping", yes/no, where the bass/treble are limited
17:16:59preglowLinusN: we already have a prevent clipping option for replaygain, do you suggest we have a universal one?
17:17:10LinusNyes
17:17:15preglowthat sounds good to me
17:17:35LinusNif you want to go wild, you set it to no
17:17:36preglowif you don't mind clipping in replaygain, you wont mind it other places either
17:17:40tucozYes, more options!! That is the true spirit of Rockbox.
17:17:46preglowtucoz: the option already exists
17:17:48LinusNbut then you hopefully know what you are doing
17:17:55tucozgrrrr
17:17:56PaulJpeglow: would it be possible to implement something like a Preamp in the equalizerscreen (similar to winamp) and and suggest a preampsetting to the user? so he could still decide to use another value and risk possible clipping.
17:17:58tucoz;)
17:18:10preglowLinusN: we should probably rename it to use some more commong word than clipping
17:18:20preglowPaulJ: yes
17:18:25preglowPaulJ: that's in my plans
17:18:28LinusNwhat would that word be then?
17:18:31tucozdistortion?
17:18:41FebsOverload.
17:18:42preglowhmm
17:18:44preglowoverdrive
17:18:44preglowheh
17:18:47LinusN"prevent funny noise" :-)
17:18:49preglowperhaps only add 'audio' before 'clipping'
17:18:50preglowheh
17:19:43amiconn"Allow Overdrive" yes/no

17:20:25Lynx_"Sound sucks" yes/no
17:21:17preglowi might as well just remove the replaygain preamp setting as well
17:21:35preglowsince the eq will have it
17:22:21preglowand then i need to convert all codecs to use 28 bit accuracy, hrmph
17:22:40amiconnpreglow: Hmm, the MAS datasheet is a bit vague. From the block diagram it looks like all audio settings are purely digital, but the description for the main volume control says it's split
17:22:51amiconnhttp://www.rockbox.org/twiki/pub/Main/DataSheets/mas3587f_2pd.pdf pages 9 and 10
17:23:19SanI heard about linusN playing music :D
17:23:22Sanhow is that going?
17:23:25preglowprescaler is digital, and main control analogue, i guess
17:23:29LinusNdid i play that loud?
17:23:39CheeseBurgerManlol
17:23:50CheeseBurgerManThe music heard round the world. ;)
17:23:56tucozLinusN: it still echoes
17:25:11Sanlol
17:25:14amiconnLinusN: Btw, from looking at the block diagram the archos recorder should also allow line in loop through like the player

17:27:53Mindship-01I'm looking at Feature request 955078
17:28:12Mindship-01Shouldn't it be loaded before the HDD can be read?
17:28:24_FireFly_Mindship-01: look at apps/gui/logos.ch
17:29:07LinusNMindship-01: yes
17:29:47Mindship-01there is no apps/gui
17:30:14_FireFly_then you didn't have the lastest sources
17:30:27LinusN_FireFly_: he's not talking about source code
17:30:28Mindship-01argh...
17:30:33Mindship-01LinusN: I am
17:30:47Mindship-01I want that request to be implemented
17:30:53_FireFly_LinusN: and what is that ?? apps/recorder/icons.c
17:31:19Mindship-01Thats where I found some images
17:31:24Mindship-01I believe they were
17:32:07Mindship-01I think my source is the latest
17:32:13Mindship-01(s/l-ed this week)
17:32:16LinusNMindship-01: i thought you wanted to move the bmp's to files to be loaded at runtime
17:32:16Mindship-01d/l*
17:32:33Mindship-01LinusN: that seems to be the first step
17:32:37_FireFly_Mindship-01: then you must have apps/gui/
17:33:07_FireFly_or the archive is corrupted(when you had downloaded a source-archive)
17:33:20LinusNMindship-01: if you want to implement that request you should ignore the current graphics
17:33:54LinusNlet rockbox display the current splash and show the user-selected afterwards, when the disk is ready
17:34:11Mindship-01LinusN: why do that?
17:34:29LinusNbecause it's simpler
17:34:34Mindship-01can I not copy a pic. from the HDD to the boot zone?
17:34:52LinusN?????
17:34:57Mindship-01(wherever that is)
17:35:07_FireFly_and the user didn't have to recompile the firmware if they want to change the logo
17:35:27LinusNthe rockbox logo is in the rockbox.iriver file

17:35:56Mindship-01i thought: the user selects an image, the software replaces the current image (which I believe does not reside on the HDD) with the chosen one
17:36:28LinusNit would have to patch the rockbox.iriver file
17:37:10Mindship-01can that be done?
17:37:17LinusNnot easily
17:37:21Mindship-01damn...
17:37:45Mindship-01Is it hard to do that on your pc?
17:38:15Mindship-01(you can change the image, but have to upgrade firmware afterwards :P)

17:43:15Mindship-01yup, isn't Rockbox build to overcome that? ;-)
17:43:40LinusNMindship-01: it is pretty easy to replace the rockbox logo, but you have to recompile it
17:44:00Mindship-01Can I do that?
17:44:18LinusNyes
17:44:48Mindship-01_FireFly_: I found the /apps/gui in the daily build...
17:45:06Mindship-01LinusN: how??? (/me is eager to knoww)
17:45:07LinusNhttp://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/SimpleGuideToCompiling
17:45:27Mindship-01that does not describe the picture replacing...
17:46:24linuxstbOn a related note, do people think it would be a good idea to store the original .bmp files in CVS and run bmp2rb as part of the build process?
17:46:46wubblalinuxstb: yeah, that's definitely a good idea
17:46:53linuxstbThe main reason is that we now have two 16-bit colour LCDs with different bitmap formats.
17:47:11linuxstbAnd if we support the greyscale ipods, we will probably have two 2-bit bitmap formats.
17:47:43Mindship-01linuxstb: please, do make that change! You can think of some test to overcome that problem!
17:48:10Mindship-01I would be extremely thankful (well, 'very' anyway)

20:15:57_FireFly_Hi Cassandra
20:16:08CassandraHeya
20:16:34arfofirefly: sorry my fault. I had an old version of rockbox.iriver in /rockbox and the newr one on root ;)
20:16:46arfonext time i know better
20:17:17_FireFly_Cassandra: do you have some time to submit a small fix for the wps when using the %wd tag ??
20:17:22_FireFly_arfo: ;)
20:17:38CassandraWhat's it fix?
20:17:39NicoFRbtw, are there any H300 WPS ?
20:17:49CassandraNot yet, no.
20:17:50Slasherarfo: Hmm.. could you turn the colors off please. It's impossible to read your text from a black terminal
20:18:12_FireFly_currently the margin isn't set probably when leaving the quickscreen

20:26:30CassandraSome of them just don't take up the full screen.
20:27:02CassandraI'll do an H3xx screen once I have a working simulator.
20:27:14Cassandra(Or if someone wants to give me an H3xx)
20:27:56NicoFRthere is a simulator build on misticriver
20:28:31CassandraProbably for Windows. I do Rockbox development under Linux.
20:28:46NicoFRok
20:29:07CassandraWon't be in colour either. We don't have support for multi-colour WPSes yet.
20:29:21NicoFRnot yet
20:29:32NicoFRhopefully soon :)
20:29:50***Alert Mode OFF
20:30:03CassandraWell I had a discussion with amicon, our graphics guru the other day, and we came up with a plausible way of implementing it.
20:30:13CassandraAs to when it'll happen, I'm not really sure.
20:31:43KohlrabiAny place on the website where I can find out how to build the simulator?
20:32:12_FireFly_Cassandra: i have a slightly modified wps-loaded which reduces the used space in the format-buffer e.g. your boxes.wps uses with this loader only 538 bytes instead 1759 :)
20:32:36Acksawhow close is audio?
20:33:20_FireFly_the loader loads the wps-file line by line and lines with following tags didn't get into the format-buffer: %x %xl %wd %we
20:33:25_FireFly_and also comments

20:34:56_FireFly_the readed lines gets parsed from a seperate function which returns true if one of these tags are found and handled otherwise false
20:35:15Cassandra_FireFly_, sounds good.
20:35:25CassandraBut there aren't any invalid tags in my WPS.
20:35:51_FireFly_no not invalid tags

20:36:43 Quit Subterranean (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
20:36:56_FireFly_these tags are handled seperatly because i think that image-loading tags, comment-line the %wd %we tags doesn't need to be in the format-buffer because they are only parsed direktly after loading the file

20:40:08_FireFly_TiMiD wanted to submit it but it seams that he has currently not mutch time for rockbox

20:40:32amiconnIirc linuxstb does that and he said it works pretty well
20:40:44Drumrboy|awayprobably, you could

20:44:02larsieok thanks for the reply :)
20:44:20NicoFRis it stable at the default CPU freq ?
20:44:41amiconnDrumrboy|away: Imho remote support for rockboy doesn't make much sense. Too low resolution, b&w only, and rather slow data transfer
20:45:06_FireFly_Cassandra: with this loader the %wd or %we tag must be on y seperate line
20:45:21SanDo you guys want me to be the "official flame the people who ask when rockbox is released" guy?

20:45:30CassandraOK - was a bad example. Pick a more conventional tag.;
20:45:40tucozCassandra, if you're in commit-mood, there are a couple of updates to the wps's that are in cvs at sourceforge.

21:10:50amiconnKohlrabi: That's because you probably have no supported files in the simulator root
21:10:58CassandraYou need to have a archos directory (hysterical raisins) in your build dir.

21:41:36amiconnOn archos it's working fine
21:42:42_FireFly_amiconn: what is the quickmode ??
21:43:06amiconnThere are 2 modes of quickscreen operation:
21:44:00amiconn1. Normal mode: Press quickscreen button to bring it up, press left/right/down to adjust options, press quickscreen button again to leave
21:45:14amiconn2. Quickmode: Press & hold quickscreen button, press left/right/down to select options. Stop holding quickscreen button to leave
21:46:43_FireFly_amiconn: the problem is/was when you enter the quickscreen from the remote then the remote-buttons didn't work
21:46:55amiconnThat's another problem
21:47:05amiconn(was)
21:48:05_FireFly_yepp but the fix for this problem might be break the second mode of the quickscreen
21:49:25amiconnHmm. The quickscreen doesn't seem to work at all on the remote
21:49:49amiconnI can bring it up, but I can't change a single option

23:09:44linuxstbstatic buffers would probably be better anyway.
23:10:38linuxstbJust make their size a #define, and if possible make Tremor fail cleanly if a file needs larger buffers. This could stop a lot of the Ogg problems people are having.

23:29:22preglowwhich reminds me
23:29:24Lear(Triggering an iRiver boot, interestingly enough. Assuming I didn't accidentally pressed record... :)
23:29:27amiconnLinusN: Patch tracker? dcc?
23:29:27preglowi really need to get this musepack stuff commited
23:29:37LearYes, floor0.
23:29:49LinusNamiconn: patch tracker
23:30:14preglowLear: perhaps we should just not support floor0 files
23:30:28preglowi don't feel like using precious iram to make them work faster
23:30:52Learare we that short on iram?
23:31:03preglowno
23:31:04preglowbut still
23:31:15preglowyou'll almost _never_ bump into a floor0 file
23:31:22amiconnHmm, wasn't the remote support for delete screen already committed?

23:31:32amiconnThe patch in the tracker is still marked open...
23:32:01LearHm... Should actually be fairly simple to detect in metadata too... :)
23:32:37preglowbut then again
23:32:40amiconnOkay, patch closed
23:32:46preglowi thought floor 1 files were slower to decode than floor 0
23:33:36_FireFly_amiconn: one or two already commitd patches on tracker are also not closed
23:34:40_FireFly_amiconn: e.g. the wps-widget
23:35:53amiconnLinusN: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1365921&group_id=44306&atid=439120
23:36:06Learpreglow: there are a couple of data arrays in floor0 not in iram, maybe that explains some...
23:37:12LearThey do seem to be fairly heavily used in one function.
23:37:13amiconn_FireFly_: closed.

23:38:05LearSmall though, something like 250 bytes.
23:40:44preglowLear: well, feel free to try it out
23:40:50preglowa damn pity tremor is so slow
23:43:00linuxstbTremor is only using 32KB of iram at the moment...
23:43:23LearNope, that didn't do much. Part of the floor0 function have an arm version, btw.
