#rockbox log for 2005-12-23

00:01:02_FireFly_ok now they are in the wiki
00:01:09mirakis there an assembly optimised ifft for coldfire ?
00:01:17_FireFly_lets the discussen begins about it ;)
00:01:51_FireFly_now it is really time for bed for me good night everybody

00:09:47*amiconn just noticed the issue date of the HD66789R datasheet
00:09:52LinusNamiconn: i was about to ask about the time display on the ondio
00:09:59LinusNbut i realized it has no rtc
00:10:37warewolfyaay
00:10:46amiconnYes, that's why we were able to reuse the clock area for the MMC icon
00:10:48*warewolf asked earlier about h300 rtc
00:13:13amiconnToo bad we can't use high speed data write for the H300 lcd

00:14:42amiconnHow does the current lcd_write_data() ensure correct timing at 124 MHz (namely the minimum inactive period for /WR) ?
00:15:49dropandhofirefly- nice...i see your wiki pages
00:15:52dropandhothanks for sharing
00:16:13dropandhoso you are gonna try to implement that work?
00:18:57mirakI can't build the current cvs
00:19:11miraksettings_menu.c: In function `brightness':
00:19:11miraksettings_menu.c:220: error: `LANG_BRIGHTNESS' undeclared (first use in this function)
00:19:42amiconnYou're building non-english?
00:20:23mirakyes french
00:21:31peturhmmm do you need to add a new setting to all LANG files or does it fall back to english?
00:21:33amiconnThen you need to update french.lang with the new string firast
00:22:02amiconnpetur: Rockbox falls back to the built-in language for strings not present in the loaded .lng file
00:22:11mirakamiconn: don't know wha it is
00:22:24amiconnThe standard is to build english, then builtin is english and english is the master
00:23:25*amiconn always chooses english as built-in language
00:23:30peturah, so if you're *building* with another language, that file should be up-to-date...
00:23:35amiconnyup
00:23:54peturwho's responsible for updating the LANG files?
00:24:22amiconn.lang files aren't assigned to specific maintainers
00:24:47peturShould I have added them to my patch?
00:24:50amiconnEveryone who feels like it can file a patch, or change himself when he has commit access
00:25:32mirakamiconn: why not defaulting to english parameter ?

00:25:57mirakyou load the english file, then after that the other language file
00:26:11mirakand #defines are redefined
00:26:15mirakcan it work ?
00:26:24amiconnThe standard way for a new string is to add it to english.lang, and optionally to your own language. I'm sure there is *no* contributor who knows all supported languages
00:26:43 Nick Lost-ash is now known as ashridah (n=ashridah@67.106.77.212.ptr.us.xo.net)
00:27:30mirakwhat I said could work or it's not feasible ?
00:28:14amiconn??
00:28:30mirak?
00:28:53amiconn#defines are evaluated at build time, they can't be changed at runtime
00:30:54mirakI know
00:31:34mirakbut the configure could include the english file first, then include the target language after that
00:31:46mirakthe defines would be overridden
00:31:54mirakcan it work ?
00:32:13mirak:)
00:33:43amiconnWell, perhaps, but why? Imho the build language selection causes more confusion and problems that it's worth. Just choose english as builtin language. You can always choose another .lng file in the settings
00:33:55BagderI agree
00:34:04Bagderwe should probably remove that ability
00:34:13mirakI always needed to change it anyway
00:34:41mirakremove it yes
00:34:55LinusNgets my vote too
00:34:58*bagawk is in agreement
00:35:36amiconnOne could argue that the builtin language saves a tiny bit of battery power by not having to load a .lng file, but imho this is neglectible
00:35:49amiconnThe RAM is set aside anyway
00:36:08amiconn...and many other things are loaded from disk, like fonts,...
00:36:24mirakrockbox
00:36:26mirak...
00:36:50Bagderok, let's rip it out
00:36:57amiconnmirak: Not necessarily
00:37:09mirak?
00:37:14amiconnOn archos it's possible to load/run rockbox from flash
00:37:58amiconnOne day this will also be possible on iriver.
00:38:03mirakis it normal that the battery never reach full charge ?
00:39:02LinusNmirak: how do you know that it isn't fully charged?
00:39:22mirakbecause the UI doesn't say it ...
00:39:30mirak:)
00:39:37Bagderthe most annoying part with skipping the language selection is updating a billion automated builds! ;-)
00:39:39mirakwhy does it look like it never reach full charge ?
00:39:44LinusNmirak: so your question is: "is it normal that rockbox never displays full charge?"
00:39:46ashridahmirak: that's a detection issue, not a charge issue
00:40:00ashridah(last i checked anyway)
00:40:16lostlogicxdid the iRiver firmware turn off the charging circuitry when it showed that fully charged icon, or is stopping charging handled entirely in hardware and it stops charging by hardware?
00:40:35crwl@
00:40:39LinusNthe charging is handled by the pcf50606 chip
00:41:17mirakLinusN: you said somewhere the H300 can't work without using the battery
00:41:21mirakis it right ?
00:41:23LinusNmirak: the answer is: the battery level hasn't been calibrated on the iriver players
00:41:33amiconnLinusN: Did you get my last question?
00:42:13LinusNamiconn: the h300 lcd transfer loop is so slow that it didn't need any timing adjustments
00:42:23LinusNbecause of the slow dram access
00:42:35amiconnHmm. That was the same with DMA?
00:42:39LinusNyes
00:42:56LinusNsince it interleaved dram and lcd accesses
00:43:00amiconnWith burst-read that will no longer be the case
00:43:11LinusNperhaps not
00:43:38amiconnWell, the waitstates only stretch the /WR active time, correct?
00:43:44LinusNcorrect

00:44:06 Join Membrillo [0] (n=sam_kill@CPE-144-131-86-7.nsw.bigpond.net.au)
00:44:29amiconnWe need at least 70 ns /WR inactive time which equals 9 CPU cycles at 124 MHz
00:44:38LinusN:-(
00:44:58LinusNhow long is a swap in iram?
00:45:16amiconnword swap is a register operation, 1 cpu cycle
00:45:27LinusNso 2 for the fetch and 1 for the execution
00:45:32LinusNright?
00:45:34MembrilloUh, following the trend on the language page of labelling each file how the language is said in that language, Japanese should be labelled Nihongo
00:45:51amiconnNo, just one cycle once the code is cached
00:46:00LinusNno cache in iram
00:46:01Membrillo(japanese language in japanese)
00:46:24LinusNbut iram access is 1 cycle anyway, roght?
00:46:31amiconnyes
00:46:47LinusNso 2 cycles for a swap
00:46:52amiconnNo, 1 cycle
00:47:16LinusNok, the fetch is piped
00:47:27amiconnyes
00:47:43lostlogicxIRAM is 1 bus cycle, code cache is 1 CPU cycle?
00:48:03LinusNand the move.w -(ax) is how many?
00:49:32amiconnWe don't need the decrement, but that doesn't matter anyway. move.w Dn,(Ax) is also just 1 cycle
00:49:48 Nick ashridah is now known as Lost-ash (n=ashridah@67.106.77.212.ptr.us.xo.net)
00:50:07amiconn...with one write access, which will of course be 1 bus cycle == 2 cpu cycles (16 ns)
00:51:21LinusN1 bus cycle is 3 cpu cycles iirc
00:51:46LinusNplus wait states
00:51:57amiconnbusclk == cpuclk/2
00:52:11LinusNso it is 6 then
00:52:23amiconn?
00:52:35amiconnYou mean the 2 waits?
00:53:03LinusNno, i mean that an access is 3 bus cycles == 6 cpu cycles
00:53:39amiconn???
00:53:53LinusNand each wait state is 1 bus cycle == 2 cpu cycles
00:54:23amiconnWhy should one access take 3 bus cycles (w/o wait states)?
00:55:11LinusNcycle 1: drive address
00:55:31LinusNcycle 2 + waitstates: perform the read
00:55:46LinusNcycle 3 + waitstates: release the address
00:55:59LinusNall in all 3+ws bus cycles
00:56:26LinusNwrite cycles are the same
00:56:55LinusNthis is of course regular static ram accesses, sdram is of course different
00:57:17amiconnHmm, it seems I overlooked somehing in the datasheet
00:57:20LinusNand iram is also different
00:57:30amiconnIsn't the write buffered?
00:57:37LinusNnot that i know of
00:57:55LinusN(and i hate that)
00:58:05 Quit Membrillo ()
00:59:00LinusNthe 5249 can burst sram accesses, 3-2-2-2
00:59:46amiconnIf the write needs 3 bus cycles anyway, we might need less wait states in a number of places
00:59:58amiconnwrite and read of course

01:00:30LinusNamiconn: where?
01:01:09LinusNafaik, we have 0 waitstates everywhere
01:01:13amiconnE.g. flash rom, but that needs testing
01:01:19amiconnWe don't
01:02:48LinusNwhich one is not 0 waitstates?
01:03:19amiconnWe use 2 waitstates for LCD at 124 MHz, 4 waitstates for flash ROM at 124 MHz, and 1 waitstate for flash ROM at 45 MHz
01:03:51LinusNah, silly me
01:03:57amiconnBack when I added flash ID reading for h1x0, there were only 2 waitstates for flash at 124 MHz
01:04:16amiconnThat was definitely not enough, as I got only garbage
01:05:14 Quit webguest95 ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")

01:07:25amiconnI'm a bit confused. Is this a 70ns or a 90ns ROM?
01:07:33LinusN70
01:08:01amiconnHmm. Then I wonder why 2 waitstates at 124 MHz weren't enough
01:08:39amiconnA bus cycle is ~16ns at 124 MHz (busclk == 62 MHz)
01:09:00amiconnThat means, 3+2(wait) * 16 ns == 80 ns

01:14:37***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
01:15:01amiconnWell, taking into consideration that /CS active time is only 2 bus cycles, 3 waitstates should be enough at 124 MHz
01:15:32amiconn...but the one waitstate at 45 MHz shouldn't be necessary at all. However, it is necessary...

05:17:14 Quit DiveineIn (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
05:18:08lostlogicxI hope it doesn't impatct WPS performance, because it's about the most complex tag.
05:27:15nathanhwell, i got some thoughts about that
05:27:35nathanhi implemented a display lists patch - basically lets you have any order of images and tags - but its sloooow
05:27:50nathanhi cant play an ogg at the same time as the display list on my h300 (mp3 works ok though)
05:28:01nathanhi profiled it and the majority of time is spent in format_display
05:28:10nathanhthat parsing code parses the wps file - tags and all - every single frame
05:28:16nathanhgrossly inefficient
05:28:26nathanhso before i push a display lists code im working on a tokenizer
05:28:43nathanhthe parser will take the wps and generate a list of tokens - bytecode if you will - and that will be what format_display runs through
05:28:51nathanhi expect to drop the cost of wps displaying down to nothing
05:29:05lostlogicxthat's basically what I suggested on patch tracker, isn't it?
05:29:08nathanh?
05:29:13nathanhdunno, maybe
05:29:25nathanhi dont recall what you said :-)
05:29:35lostlogicxmy latest comment on one of your patches, basically said preparse the WPS as much as possible
05:29:47nathanhok, so we're on the same frequency :-)
05:29:50lostlogicxbecause yes, tokenizing it every effing time through was teh bad
05:29:52lostlogicxtotally.
05:30:13nathanhso now that sdl is out of the way ive got 3 patches i want to write - color bmp loads (working, needs tweaking)
05:30:18nathanhthen tokenized wps
05:30:23nathanhthen i'll redo the display lists code
05:30:29lostlogicxyou must have time on your hands.
05:30:30lostlogicx:)

05:30:45nathanhstarting as of 2 hours ago
05:31:14lostlogicxI'm on a four day weekend, but I'll be out of town w/o internet access for it starting at 6am :(
05:32:06nathanhanyway, the tokenizer should be fairly simple
05:32:12nathanhive already got a doodle on a bit of paper about how to do it
05:32:46lostlogicxyeah, I had some theories on it, kinda a pain to move much of the existing WPS code into it, but nothing inherently _hard_
05:33:31nathanhthe best bit about this project is the lead devs are all keen on doing the hardware
05:33:39nathanhwhich is great, because i despise working with hardware
05:33:53nathanhso i get to muck about with all the cool stuff that they're not interested in :-)

08:43:21lostlogicxparty on, hopefully it's merge worthy :)
08:43:33Jungti1234hahaha
08:44:10Jungti1234I want to mark date by Oriental style.
08:44:33lostlogicxWhat is oriental style?
08:44:35Jungti1234yyyy-mm-dd, am(pm) hh:mm
08:44:55lostlogicxthat should be supported by my patch
08:45:52Jungti1234but
08:46:17Jungti1234I want 'yyyy-mm-dd (day of the week)'
08:46:45lostlogicxnumeric day of the week? ahh... I missed that didn't I.

08:50:30Jungti1234I don't understand.
08:50:45lostlogicxBagder: for date in WPS formatting −− the unix date command standards is what I've been using, and they say monday is 1, and Sunday is either 7 or 0

08:51:19lostlogicxyeah, I guess no harm in supporting it.
08:51:25amiconnlostlogicx: Imho it would be sufficient to make weekday and month a combined numeric/multiple alternative conditional, like volume and battery level
08:52:07Bagderthat might be nicer, as it will then be easier for multiple languages or using bmps
08:53:16lostlogicxhmmmmm... I could switch from using a single date string to format dates to using multiple separate date tags, but then I'd want to cache the rtc tm value somewhere rather than reading it from get_time for each separate date related tag.

09:44:44Jungti1234New Korean translation wasn't included to build today.
09:45:39Jungti1234I have other new Korean translation.

09:47:47Jungti1234How do I send it to you?
09:48:18linuxstbThinking about the rtc-wps patch, I think it could be useful to add a strftime function to rockbox, and use that.
09:48:32linuxstbi.e. size_t strftime(char *s, size_t max, const char *format, const struct tm *tm);
09:48:56linuxstbI would quite like the option to display the date in the status bar - there is more than enough room on the larger LCDs.
09:49:21Slasheriamiconn: It seems we need to do a little compromise with the tag cache on archos players. When user wants to update the cache (for example add new files), it's faster to completely rescan the disk than add only changed files. That also means that the db should be build at once while the player is running. Iriver is more flexible when using dircache, as there is no need to rebuild the cache when adding files and player can be rebooted any time
09:49:36Jungti1234Long....
09:50:38BgerJungti1234 the same place
09:50:48Jungti1234I don't know.
09:52:59linuxstb...But thinking about strftime, that will need to go into apps/ if it is to use localisation.

10:13:29amiconnSlasheri: I wonder why a complete rescan is faster than an incremental update on archos, when it's the other way round for iriver. Is there a reason for this?
10:15:35Slasheriamiconn: yes. When doing incremental scan on archos, we need to check from the disk if the file already exists in the db. And that checking takes some time
10:15:47Slasherion iriver, we can do the same check from ram and it's fast
10:16:12_FireFly_due the dircache :)
10:16:17Slasheriyep :)
10:16:42_FireFly_but when someone disable dircache then it is also slow in iriver
10:16:49_FireFly_s/in/on
10:16:58Slasheri_FireFly_: yes, but then the db cannot be loaded into ram at all
10:17:28amiconnSlasheri: So... that doesn't mean it depends on the target, but rather on dircache being enabled or not
10:17:42amiconnI have dircache disabled on iriver
10:17:47Slasheriin fact, speeding up that disk based incremental checking would be possible by creating other index file..
10:18:13Slasheriamiconn: yep, that's true. But for ram loading, it also needs some additional space to load the tag indexes
10:19:08Slasheriamiconn: hmm. When using readdir, should it return files always in same order?
10:19:08amiconnWould it be possible to speed up scanning by using additional ram? If so, tagcache build could be faster when playback is stopped, using the audio buffer
10:19:23Slasheriif that is the case, then we could just continue the search from the previous place in the file
10:19:37Slasheriamiconn: yes, that could be possible
10:19:58amiconnSlasheri: Yes, as long as the dir isn't changed. readdir() returns the entries in 'natural' order
10:20:17Slasheriah, that sounds good. In fact, it might solve the issue :)
10:20:26Slasherii will try that
10:20:29amiconnIt might happen that a new entry ends up in between the list of old entries
10:21:03Slasheriyep, but that shouldn't be a problem as long as the order is not entirely much changed
10:21:06Slasheri-much
10:21:15amiconnThat'll happen if there are some deleted entries. They'll get reused if a new entry is created
10:25:27amiconnDo you already have ideas how to browse this? I imagine a number of virtual directories, and perhaps a search function?
10:25:55SlasheriAt the moment, i have ported the dbtree browser to it (so browsing and searching works)
10:26:28amiconnSounds like a working solution. Perhaps some more virtual directories could be added later
10:26:40Slasheriyes, should be possible
10:26:44amiconnThe old db code should be removed imho
10:26:47Slasherii already added the genre browsing too
10:27:54amiconnAnother change which I would like to see is the separate browsing mode removed, and the tag browser added as a virtual sub-dir of the root, similar to the multivolume support on Ondio
10:28:08Slasheriamiconn: in fact, it would be great if you could test the code on real archos later
10:28:24amiconnThis virtual sub-dir would only be shown if the tagcache is present (built)
10:28:52Slasheriah, that sounds like a great idea
10:28:54amiconn...and enabled. Is there an option to enable/disable the tag cache?
10:29:19Jungti1234lostlogicx
10:29:59Slasherino, there is not an option for that (only on iriver, user can select whether to load the cache to ram or not). But user has to request the cache to be built if it's not present
10:31:59 Part miner49er
10:33:05amiconnAh, but once it is built, it wil be kept up-o-date all the time? What if a user just wants to test the tag cache, and then decides he doesn't want it?

10:52:48linuxstbSlasheri: Does anything happen if a user deletes a file on their player (via Rockbox) ?
10:53:25Slasherilinuxstb: yep, then tagcache just stops working and needs to be rebuild
10:53:44Slasherioh, you mean a song file
10:53:48linuxstbYes.
10:54:04Slashericurrently that is not detected.. so the file will still show in the cache
10:58:25linuxstbSlasheri: Your tagcache will solve the itunesdb problem in the ipod port. Currently, Rockbox isn't able to browse files that have been copied to the ipod via iTunes (they are stored with obfuscated filenames). But tagcache will find them and add them to a unified database with the rest of the music on the device.
10:59:32Slasheriah, interesting
10:59:41linuxstbiTunes stores the tags both in the files themselves and the ipod's itunesdb database.
11:00
11:00:15SlasheriHmm, then it could be possible to convert that itunesdb into other format
11:00:33Slasherior just read the files..
11:00:35linuxstbYes, that would be an optimisation. But even without that, it would still work.
11:00:43Slasheriyep
11:01:03linuxstbitunesdb is a constantly moving target - it would be better IMO to just leave it alone.
11:01:36Slasheriin fact, we could even build in future the itunesdb from tagcache to allow runtimedb info synchronization with other programs
11:03:34linuxstbI'm not that interested in itunesdb - I don't use iTunes and I can't see myself ever using the Apple firmware. I guess we'll find out if there is a demand from ipod users when they start using Rockbox.

11:33:38nathanhfirefly: yup, found it
11:34:44_FireFly_the biggest problem will be the token-generation on targets with low ram-space e.g. the archos recorder with 2MB ram
11:35:19nathanhcan make it smaller by not sucking in the whole .wps file but reading it line by line

11:36:40nathanhno need to have those lines at all
11:36:43eli_shereri think the starfield looks great "as is" but you can add gray scale to emulate depth...
11:36:57eli_shererfar stars will be darker...
11:37:04nathanheli: currently emulates depth by drawing more pixels
11:37:12nathanheli: stuff far away = 1 pixel, closer = 4 pixels, so on
11:37:19_FireFly_nathanh currently the format_lines have only the needed lines from the wps no bitmap-loading lines
11:37:32nathanhfirefly: i see
11:37:33eli_shereryeah but brightness is another aspect of depth emulation...
11:37:52_FireFly_for the tokens you need enough tokens in ram for the wps because there is no real malloc to create new tokens dynamically
11:37:58nathanheli: i see, thats a good idea, draw dark red for faw away, bright red for closer
11:38:26eli_shereri thought of white but you got the idea...
11:38:37Bgerbetter random colors :P
11:39:46nathanhfirefly: issue that might not be an issue, an expression like %alThis is a %pv string%arThis is another %pv string
11:40:12nathanhfirefly: how will tokens know to draw "This is a" followed by %pv following by "string" all in the same buffer before calling puts
11:41:43_FireFly_nathanh how do you think how to use an tokenizer for this?
11:41:57nathanhmight need a END_OF_STRING token

14:20:55paranoid_androdihello,i've unintentionally changed the language in my H3XX (in ROCKBOX)so now the menus are all messed out,or "empty"if someone could navigate me to the "load default" ,because i completely 'blind'
14:23:03paranoid_androdianyone?
14:23:11Bgerparanoid_androdi
14:23:22Bgerreboot rockbox and hold the "rec" button
14:23:22paranoid_androdiyeah
14:23:30Bgerthis will reset the settings
14:23:58Slasheribut you should not hold the rec button too early, or it will boot into iriver fw
14:24:06Bgerah, yes
14:24:19paranoid_androdiyeah,thank you,i'd try it
14:24:47linuxstbSlasheri: What is "tagcache scanning without ram" ? Is that checking if anything has changed?
14:25:03Slasherilinuxstb: yes, basically adding new files to the cache
14:25:21Bgerand removing the old ones ?
14:25:32Slasherino, old ones are not removed yeat
14:25:35Slasheri-a
14:25:49linuxstbSo after the database is initially built, it will take 30-60 seconds before it's available when you boot up?
14:25:50Slasheribut maybe that could be partially implemented later.. just mark them as bad
14:26:04Slasherilinuxstb: no, it's always immediately available
14:26:20linuxstbBut it could be (very) wrong?
14:26:20 Quit paranoid_androdi ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
14:27:10Slasherilinuxstb: yes, the new files can be missing from the db. But after running the update (when loaded to ram, that happens automatically) and rebooting the player, the new files are committed to the db

18:52:00_FireFly_ok
18:52:12amiconnThis way it will be possible to define the non-ascii lines depending on the language or codepage
18:52:40amiconnAh, and of course it's necessary for supporting different fonts as well

19:06:00eli_sherermeaning have a few framebuffers??? which you could switch between?
19:07:36_FireFly_eli_sherer: on the wiki there is design paper of the idea
19:08:58_FireFly_ah now it looks a bit better when i use utf8seek to get the length in the buffer for the calculated max char per line
19:10:39amiconnI think we need the max width of the font, if we want to be able to use proportional fonts as well. Of course the lines should always be shown non-proportional
19:11:47_FireFly_yepp
19:12:21_FireFly_but how do you show strings non-proportional when using an proportional font ??
19:12:43amiconnDon't show the string at once, place each char individually
19:13:41linuxstbeli_sherer: There is already a clock plugin for Rockbox - it just needs adapting slightly for the H300's screen and buttons.
19:14:30amiconnHmm, that slight adaptation might end up in a lot of work
19:14:51linuxstbMaybe I'm exaggerating a little...
19:14:58***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
19:15:21amiconnAfair clock.rock uses loads of gfx function calls tailored to the archos screen size
19:16:04amiconnThere's only one plugin that's harder to adjust to other targets than clock.rock (interface wise) - and that's wormlet
19:17:25amiconnThe reason why wormlet is recorder only (not even adapted to Ondio) is that the button handling code is scattered all over, and is far from straight-forward to understand
19:20:06linuxstbThe use of bitmaps in plugins is getting hard to manage now - the source files to plugins like Sudoku and Bejewelled are now more than 50% bmp code (to cover all the targets).
19:21:11linuxstbAnd it's just getting worse - the currently supported ipods mean another 3 sets of bitmaps, with 2 more if we support the two sizes of greyscale ipods.
19:22:09eli_shereri use external bitmaps for that matter because i use full screen bitmaps and it's not reasonable to put them into the code...
19:23:13 Part ratpack91
19:23:54linuxstbI would like to make the build system take care of this - so for example a plugin could have a directory full of bitmaps, and the build system runs bmp2rb with the appropriate options and links them into the .rock.
19:25:03eli_shererthis is not a solution...this way it would just do the same as it is now...
19:26:08_FireFly_but the code would be clear
19:28:28 Quit akaidiot (Read error: 113 (No route to host))
19:30:12linuxstbThe problem is not the number of bitmaps a plugin uses, it's the fact that the plugin's C source file needs to contain the bitmaps in the native format (and appropriate size) for all supported targets.
19:30:41linuxstbCurrently this means: Archos, H120, H300, ipod Nano, ipod Color and ipod Video.
19:31:00linuxstbAnd I think the iaudio X5 has yet another sized LCD.
19:33:38_FireFly_yeah and this will increase the plugin-size

19:33:54_FireFly_at least the code for the plugin
19:34:10_FireFly_code-filesize i mean
19:39:08amiconnlinuxstb: Using external bitmaps and converting at build time would have another advantage besides the source code being clutter-free: There are some screens which have the same size and depth, just the internal format is different (H300 and iPod color; H1x0 and greyscale iPods). So we wouldn't need as many .bmps as one might think
19:39:58amiconnUsing external bitmaps at runtime is not a good solution imho
19:40:57linuxstbYes, that's another reason I want it in the build system. I'm having a little play with it now.
19:41:11amiconnIt adds complexity, as each file has to be loaded and checked whether it was loaded ok. It alsso adds battery drain, depending on how many files are there
19:42:08linuxstbThe only advantage I can think of for external bitmaps is if you have more bitmaps than the available plugin ram, and you need to load them dynamically.
19:42:22linuxstbBut I don't think that applies to any current plugins.
19:42:25amiconnAnd finally, it consumes disk space, the same way as we now observe with all the wps bitmap clutter

19:44:10amiconnI think that it won't be necessary to have one .bmp for each internal bitmap in a plugin (e.g. each individual digit in sudoku)
19:44:30_FireFly_amiconn: yeah and you know a solution for the many wps-bitmaps :)
19:44:39amiconnThey can be combined, and then drawn with the partial bitmap functions
19:45:10linuxstbTrue. The downside of converting bitmaps at build time is that will increase the build time.
19:46:07amiconnYes, but that's a bearable tradeoff
19:46:40amiconnThere's another advantage when using .bmp files at build time - it is easier to fix and optimise the graphics
19:46:55linuxstbIn fact, if I combine the sudoku number bitmaps into a column, I don't even need to use the partial bitmap functions.

19:48:33amiconnlinuxstb: Yes, if you calculate the starting positions beforehand. The partial bitmap functions would handle this 'automatically'
19:50:33_FireFly_in my combined-bitmap support for wps the wps-creator needs to specify the position and the size of the sub-image in the image
19:50:38linuxstbOK, so where should the plugin bmps live? apps/plugins/sudoku/ ? apps/plugins/bitmaps/sudoku/ ?
19:51:27_FireFly_or apps/plugins/sudoku/bitmaps
19:53:27linuxstbor apps/bitmaps/plugins/sudoku/ if we think that apps/bitmaps/ could in the future contain bitmaps used by core Rockbox such as icons and the splash logo.

20:41:04Paul_The_NerdI feel really stupid because shortly after asking I somewhat figured it out. I'm not too familiar with Cygwin and I was trying to figure out what I needed to try building it from CVS. Is it basically the same steps for building the cross compiler, except arm-elf, or are different versions recommended?

20:45:27linuxstbBut if you're looking to install Rockbox on an ipod, you currently need a Linux (or Mac OS X) machine to install the bootloader.
20:48:33Paul_The_NerdI have a Knoppix disc for just that purpose
20:48:56Paul_The_NerdI didn't see them on the Ipodboot page, but I may have overlooked. So I just followed the regular crosscompiler instructions for arm-elf, or have been so far.

23:25:29saa[b_r]iderSan: are you there?
23:27:35San||Awayyes
23:28:21saa[b_r]iderI just PMed you at MR, the source for Pong you sent me isn't the working one
23:28:33San||Awayhhhm
23:28:50San||Awayget one of the guys here to have a look at it
23:28:56San||Awaythey know what is wrong
23:28:58San||Awayyou see....
23:29:00San||AwayI made it
23:29:06San||Awayand then over wrote it
23:29:11San||Away:(
23:29:26San||AwaySO that was a quick one i put together
23:29:51saa[b_r]iderwell does it matter where I put this: #ifdef HAVE_LCD_COLOR
23:29:51saa[b_r]ider rb->lcd_clear_display();
23:29:51saa[b_r]ider rb->lcd_set_foreground(COLOR_GREEN);
23:29:51DBUGEnqueued KICK saa[b_r]ider
23:29:51saa[b_r]ider rb->lcd_set_background(COLOR_BLACK);
23:29:51saa[b_r]ider#endif
23:30:37saa[b_r]iderbecause I moved it to the top, and changed it from the original location where it was in the source file you sent me...
23:31:01San||Awayit has to be inbetween any set of {} brackets IIRC
23:31:26saa[b_r]iderhmmm... that's why then, I shouldn't have changed it :D

23:42:01Papricayeah! we have levels on Brick Mania =]]]
23:42:10Bagderyay! ;-)
23:42:15Paprica=]
23:42:49Papricamm bagder you know why when i play music and play the game
23:42:56Papricathe game works better?
23:43:12peturboost?
23:43:14Bagderit probably is because it will boost from time to time
23:44:04Papricano way for play it good all the time? @@
23:44:45Bagderyou can boost in your plugin
23:44:55Bagderbut you'll waste more batteries doing it
23:46:20Papricaok
23:46:48Bagderbut then people use rockboy and it run boosted all the time
23:47:56Paul_The_NerdI'd say optimize, and if you can't get it to run fullspeed after you've done everything you can, you may as well boost the game. People expect to lose some battery life when playing a game on it anyway.
23:49:43saa[b_r]iderSan: it worked! I managed to change the colors in Pong... but when I tested my modified snake on the simulator, it crashed... I used the same lines added in Pong, would that do?
23:49:56Papricamm which function boost it?
23:52:57San||Awayyes, that would work saab
23:53:35saa[b_r]iderSan: but it's crashing the simulator...
23:53:48San||Awaytry it on the player
23:53:58saa[b_r]idermaybe I should
23:54:08CtcpIgnored 1 channel CTCP requests in 0 seconds at the last flood
23:54:08*petur hands over his paperclip
23:54:28saa[b_r]iderafter all, it didn't fail when compiling...
23:54:33mirakanyone is good in using iram and stuffs here ?
23:54:45 Quit mozetti (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
23:56:13mirakseems it's easy to use iram for xvid intra block decoding
23:56:31Bagderyou should use iram for a codec
23:56:47mirakyes I want to do that
23:56:57NicoFRI was wondering : what is pre-recording ?
23:57:25mirakthe block decoding function uses two static array
23:57:43mirakI think I just have to tell gcc to declare them in iram to get a significant boost
23:58:04mirakthis is on this blocks that are used fourier transformation
23:58:13BagderNicoFR: it means it is recording all the time, so when you press "start" it can save a few minutes of "history" as well
23:58:15mirakarrays/blocks
23:58:30Bagderso you can start recording even when the song already has started and still not miss the start
23:58:51Bagdermirak: check the codecs' use of ICONST_ATTR and ICODE_ATTR
