#rockbox log for 2006-01-13

00:05:59peturLinusN: did you get over my coding-rule breaking patch? I redid the recording gain one - it should apply just fine and follow 'da rules'
00:06:50peturbtw, you misdsed my biggest error: that code should be in backlight.c, not pcfxxx

00:21:41XavierGrI have a struct with 4 integers the sizeof that struct is 8 bytes right?
00:22:46markun16 I think
00:22:52markuna short is 2 bytes
00:23:12XavierGrI am always bothered with ints in rockbox, I think someone told that ints are 2 bytes no?
00:23:37linuxstb_On the gmini, ints are 2 bytes. On all other targets, they are 4 bytes.
00:24:34linuxstb_Which is why you should use "long" if you need a 32-bit integer in rockbox - or (u)int32_t
00:24:43XavierGrI tried bat[BUF_SIZE / sizeof(bat)]; to be sure but it failed as bat is not already declared. Of course now that I think of it I could just first declare and then create the struct called bat.
00:25:24linuxstb_So what is the type of bat[] ?
00:25:52XavierGr4 ints
00:26:18linuxstb_So you need to use a struct to store those 4 ints, and then sizeof(mystruct)
00:26:44linuxstb_Which will be 32 for most targets, but 16 for gmini
00:27:04XavierGryes but it is an array that I want so the immediate declaration is not right to do this.
00:27:22XavierGrI will declare the struct first and then create the array using sizeof
00:27:51mirak_the sim have problems opening my files
00:28:20mirak_I set the audio buffer as target si maybe the sim have problem with that ?
00:28:57linuxstb_I think that should work.

00:33:19BHSPitLappylinuxstb_: rockbox doesn't have any ipod capabilities that linux doesn't, does it?
00:34:39 Quit Kohlrabi ("Fast alle Menschen sind Regenwürmer")
00:34:53linuxstb_Not at the moment. But when rockbox is fully functional, there are lots of features in Rockbox which probably aren't available in Linux.
00:35:11BHSPitLappyi just mean capabilities specific to the ipod
00:35:19BHSPitLappye.g. hardware
00:35:29BHSPitLappybut i'll still take that as a no
00:35:33linuxstb_No, we're still playing catch-up
00:35:39BHSPitLappymmhmm
00:36:02BHSPitLappythe nano won't listen to taps, even though it can detect them in diag mode
00:36:47XavierGrlinuxstb_: Is the iPod UMS?
00:36:54XavierGr(in the original firmware I mean)
00:37:44linuxstb_Yes and no. You can access the disk using UMS, but the apple firmware ignores files that aren't referenced in the tag database
00:38:18 Quit t0mas (" good night")
00:38:34XavierGrso that means that if you add your own files?
00:39:01XavierGryou can't see them or they don't get in?
00:39:07linuxstb_The apple firmware only lets you browse the tag database - so if the music isn't there....
00:39:52linuxstb_When iTunes (or the third-party equivalent) adds a music track, it will both copy the file and update the database on the ipod.
00:40:03XavierGrLets say that I have my music on an iPod. I stick it to a PC and want to either add or take some music (or other files), without any program. What happens then?
00:40:49linuxstb_You can't add music, and the music that is already there is stored with obfuscated filenames such as F04/4AAD3.M4A
00:41:22XavierGryaakkk that's why I hate Apple!!!!
00:41:32linuxstb_But this is purely a software issue with the apple firmware. Rockbox will of course play them without problems.
00:42:05XavierGrSwitching Firmware would be a problem then.
00:42:07markunAt least the files are not encrypted like the gigabeat does..
00:42:15linuxstb_Why would you want to switch firmware?
00:42:44XavierGrWell in the mid process which iPod can playback more stable.
00:43:01linuxstb_I worried about this a little when I started work on it, but then decided people who wanted to use Rockbox would not want to use itunes.
00:43:27XavierGrYes but Until proper playback is introduced in Rockbox....
00:43:28Skydemonand maybe some Videos (like irivever h300 atm)
00:44:04linuxstb_I think Rockbox will go from no playback to good playback almost overnight. It won't be like the iriver port.
00:44:14XavierGrwhy is that?
00:44:22XavierGrIt is a software one no?
00:44:35linuxstb_The playback system is already working - it just needs a proper audio driver writing.
00:44:49XavierGrinteresting....
00:45:04linuxstb_I can play music on my ipod now, it's just that it's silent... :)(
00:45:29XavierGrlol ;)
00:45:45linuxstb_Of course, we may have codec optimisation to do - so maybe it won't quite be overnight.
00:45:48amiconnlinuxstb: What about arm optimisations?
00:45:48XavierGrIt is like the midi plugin.
00:45:59XavierGrIt will proccess the file but no output, (file or audio)
00:46:27linuxstb_amiconn: Yes, just remembered that :) But the fast codecs like FLAC should be fine.
00:46:36XavierGrlinuxstb_: Can you say if iPod will encode faster than iriver targets?
00:46:56Skydemonbtw - is it now save to use bootloader v5 for iriver? i have no changse to repair a blocked iriver - so wanna go as sure as possible )

00:47:08amiconnlinuxstb: Also, using the COP might introduce problems
00:48:07linuxstb_amiconn: Yes, I'm sure it will.
00:48:42linuxstb_XavierGr: encode what?
00:49:02XavierGrlets say mp3
00:49:20XavierGroh no I mean decode.
00:49:33ashridahSkydemon: easiest way would be to check out some of the bootloader v5 threads on misticriver, but so far as i know, it works, the last version just had a bug that made it take too long to turn off an auto shutoff
00:49:41XavierGranyway CPU power, will it be faster?
00:49:46linuxstb_It's hard to compare - a decoding process will just use one of the two 75MHz ARMs.
00:50:05XavierGrno code to use both?
00:50:17XavierGror it is not inteded to do this
00:50:25Skydemonashridah: Thanx )
00:50:31linuxstb_Yes, but the codec thread itself will just use one
00:50:43lostlogicyou want to write task migration for rockbox? :-D :-D
00:50:45linuxstb_The plan is to use one CPU for decoding, and the other for everything else.
00:51:07linuxstb_Our new ipod developer threatened to work on that.
00:51:27XavierGrthat would be tricky for some plugins like rockboy which needs every juice it can get.
00:51:33lostlogicalphasomething? He seems... frighteningly enthused.
00:51:54linuxstb_He may well get distracted with his java OS
00:53:37linuxstb_XavierGr: Going back to your original question, the .m4a files have the metadata (tags) still in them, so Slasheri's new tagcache will be able to index them.
00:54:08XavierGrIs there a patch for the tagcache?
00:55:15XavierGrSlasheri can have many different nicks. amiconn proposed Flasheri but maybe Cacheri is a good one too. 2 cache projects from him so far.
00:56:18*amiconn wonders what happened to his flash project...
00:56:34amiconns/his/Slasheri's/
00:57:30XavierGrThe Flasheri Project ;)
01:00
01:00:06XavierGrOkay lets say that someone tried to benchmark his battery in radio mode. Currently in my battery_bench plugin battery info will be loged on disk access. What about setting a time interval when there is no file playback? And what would that interval be? 1 hour, 2?

01:12:14XavierGrhow many HZ is an hour in rocbox?
01:12:33LinusNHZ*60*60
01:12:53XavierGrHZ=60 ticks or 100?
01:13:03XavierGroh 60

01:13:58 Quit Janco ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
01:14:10LinusNHZ is HZ ticks
01:14:30LinusNthe whole point of HZ is that you shouldn't care how many ticks it is
01:14:40LinusNHZ is one second
01:14:56LinusNor rather "number of ticks per second"
01:15:12XavierGrokay thanks.
01:15:24LinusNso, an hour is HZ*60*60 ticks

04:54:34lostlogicI don't think that's a problem they should have to deal with.
04:54:38Midgey34well, that's just the type of lcd it is, now that the hardware is out they can't fix it
04:55:02Jungti1234?
04:55:50Jungti1234H300 LCD is new LCD and old LCD.
04:55:57 Part ts-x
04:56:14lostlogicah, didn't know that there were two versions of it
04:56:16Jungti1234I have old LCD and feel that there is problem.
04:56:16lostlogicmakes sense
04:56:35Midgey34oh there are two versions?
04:56:46Jungti1234yes
04:56:54aliaskIs the new version the one with the problem, or the old one?
04:57:21Jungti1234no
04:57:38Jungti1234Old version is problem.
04:57:57aliaskSo you want a new LCD for your old LCD?
04:58:32Jungti1234yes
04:58:49Jungti1234And H300's pattern is two. fractal and pinspot
04:59:04Jungti1234Pinspot is old version.
04:59:35egotrippeni don't think that's true
04:59:42Jungti1234why?
04:59:44egotrippenthe LCD is the same, just the outer casing is different
04:59:56Jungti1234nono
05:00
05:00:09Jungti1234Iriver recognized that it exists.
05:00:09egotrippenisn't it? i'd never heard before there were two LCD versions
05:00:12egotrippeno
05:00:28egotrippenok
05:00:52Midgey34I want iriver to fix their stupid RTC
05:01:01Midgey34Feb 30th is not a date
05:01:10Jungti1234heh
05:01:16Jungti1234hahaha
05:01:22Midgey34and Feb 29 does not exist in 2005, 2006, 2007
05:01:33Jungti1234hahahahaha

05:01:40Jungti1234Interesting.
05:04:21 Quit akaidiot (Connection timed out)
05:06:47Jungti1234And H300 portable case is two.
05:07:31Midgey34I thought there was three?
05:07:43Midgey34its not like I use it, its not very good
05:07:54Midgey34s/was/were
05:07:55Jungti1234three problem
05:08:27Jungti1234Iriver changed old case by new case to event.
05:08:52Jungti1234Event ends and iriver spoke that don't change old case by new case.
05:09:08Jungti1234But, they changed it!
05:09:20egotrippenheh
05:09:25Jungti1234Changed it some people.
05:09:26egotrippeniriverAmerica is even worse
05:09:42Jungti1234why?
05:09:53egotrippentheir american branch has no idea what the korean branch is doing
05:10:00egotrippenand the korean branch does everything important
05:10:33egotrippeni had one of the iMP CD players, the american firmware in America was version 1.03 or something
05:10:43egotrippenthe korean firmware was 1.25, something like that
05:11:18egotrippensimilar to the H300s, i guess, and they only updated the American firmware once
05:11:25egotrippenbecause a LOT of people complained
05:12:03egotrippenthey're good with RMAs, but not about information or updates
05:14:01Jungti1234um..
05:14:37egotrippensorry
05:14:42Jungti1234why?
05:14:43egotrippenhow much of that translated properly?
05:14:56egotrippenthose programs can be poor
05:15:12Jungti1234I translate too.
05:15:19egotrippenah
05:15:24Jungti1234:)
05:15:39egotrippeni read the IRC logs sometimes, i thought i read you used a program
05:15:50Jungti1234hehehe
05:16:04Jungti1234Google translation is not good.
05:16:21egotrippeni know
05:16:23egotrippenhaha
05:16:33egotrippenmachine translation is very rough
05:17:44Jungti1234hahaha
05:17:59 Quit Rob2222 (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
05:18:00Jungti1234But, we don't speak English.
05:18:13Jungti1234Must use translation.
05:18:28Jungti1234Until learn English.
05:18:42egotrippenyeah
05:19:06Jungti1234Doesn't US firmware support video?
05:19:12Jungti1234and browser?
05:19:13egotrippenno
05:19:21egotrippenDRM instead of video
05:19:25Jungti1234But, support DRM.
05:19:28egotrippeniriver has said that there's not room for both
05:19:41egotrippenand the browser isn't there because USB-OTG isn't there
05:19:43Jungti1234room?
05:19:51egotrippennot space, memory
05:19:54Jungti1234ah
05:20:00Jungti1234hmm
05:20:09Jungti1234But, it's possible.
05:20:25egotrippenthe US models can use korean firmware
05:20:32egotrippenbut they lose DRM permanently
05:20:32Jungti1234uh?
05:20:40Jungti1234yes
05:20:49Jungti1234It's dangerous action.
05:20:54egotrippeneh
05:20:56 Nick drumrboy is now known as DrumRBoy320|Away (n=Drumrboy@ool-44c2019c.dyn.optonline.net)
05:20:59egotrippenonly if you use DRM
05:21:08Jungti1234hmm
05:21:39Jungti1234Korea model can't use US firmware.
05:21:52egotrippendon't know why you'd want to, anyway
05:22:02Jungti1234korea = International?
05:22:06egotrippenyes
05:22:07ashridahso reflashing with the US firmware again doesn't regain you the DRM key?
05:22:17egotrippenno
05:22:35egotrippenUS can flash to US and keep it, but flashing to international firmware loses it permanently
05:22:36ashridahstrange effect.
05:22:53egotrippenit must overwrite the part of the memory that keeps the key
05:23:02Jungti1234use US firmware in international model, don't find DRM key.
05:23:15egotrippenyeah
05:23:26Jungti1234Music isnt played.
05:23:34egotrippenonce a player, american or international, has international firmware on it it cannot use DRM
05:23:44egotrippenever
05:23:54Jungti1234hmm
05:23:58Jungti1234and
05:24:17Jungti1234Don't support video in EU firmware.
05:24:34Jungti1234But, I saw.
05:24:42Jungti1234Yesterday I talked.
05:25:11Jungti12341.29EU supports video. but, don't support in 1.30EU.
05:25:19egotrippenah
05:25:31egotrippeni don't know why they would do that. seems very strange
05:25:33Jungti1234I used all firmwares.
05:25:45egotrippenkorean seems the best
05:25:59egotrippenno volume cap like EU, and more radio frequencies than J
05:26:20egotrippenbut i've been using Rockbox since it came out, anyway
05:26:20Jungti1234um..
05:26:38Jungti1234http://jungti1234.netcci.net/wiki/wiki.php/FirmwareCompatible
05:26:46Jungti1234But, it's Korean.
05:26:48Jungti1234hehe
05:27:13egotrippenhaha
05:27:35egotrippeni'm working on fixing a little bug
05:27:40egotrippenor, adjusting a feature, i guess
05:27:59egotrippenit's complicated and i don't know C very well
05:28:17egotrippenbut not important enough for a serious programmer to work on, i think
05:28:29Jungti1234I dont know entirely C.
05:28:44egotrippeni know very little
05:28:52egotrippeni'm guessing and checking
05:29:00Jungti1234I can't work in rockbox. :(
05:29:11Jungti1234Translate only.
05:29:18egotrippenmm
05:29:29egotrippeni can understand some of it, but not write really
05:29:45Midgey34what are you trying to do?
05:29:47egotrippeni read the part i want changed, and ask for what i want
05:30:00egotrippenon the H300, you can change the colors....
05:30:15egotrippenand with the 'inverse line selector,' it looks bad
05:30:24Jungti1234hehehe
05:30:35egotrippenwith black background, orange foreground, i get white background and light blue text
05:30:49egotrippenso i'm trying to make it reverse, just swap the BG and FG colors
05:30:54egotrippeninstead of inverting
05:31:06egotrippenthe code is in lcd-16bit.c
05:31:19egotrippenand this is some general stuff
05:31:20egotrippenhttp://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/GraphicsAPI
05:31:31Midgey34ah ok
05:31:37egotrippeni'm fiddling with it, trying to get it to do what i want
05:32:00egotrippenit's mostly a hassle because i'm on XP, and making a build is slow
05:32:17Jungti1234me too
05:32:24egotrippenalso, the inverse bit seems to be connected to some other things
05:33:45egotrippenit might need more of a change to seperate the line selector from the rest of the color code
05:33:50egotrippenwhich would definately be over my head
05:34:15Jungti1234http://club.iriver.co.kr/digital/bbs_free_view.asp?free_board_idx=231131

05:36:37Jungti1234-_-;
05:36:45Jungti1234Translation is strange.
05:37:09egotrippenheh
05:37:19egotrippenit says korean to english is in beta
05:37:26egotrippenso, even worse than usual
05:37:37Jungti1234hehehe
05:37:58Jungti1234Many Koreans know gravity of problem.
05:38:11egotrippenmmm
05:38:45egotrippenwell, i got the foreground to become the background
05:38:52egotrippenit's still inverted, i just can't read anything
05:39:05egotrippenand the WPS screen disappears, too
05:39:30egotrippeni think i'm giving up on this one
05:39:44Jungti1234um
05:40:15Jungti1234I can't help to you. :(
05:40:44egotrippenit's alright
05:40:55egotrippeni'll post what i found to the rockbox and H300 forums
05:41:08egotrippenmaybe someone who knows more will take it upon themselves
05:41:59egotrippenthe real programmers seem happy that someone tried, at least, before making a request
05:43:20Jungti1234I want that use color BMP in WPS.
05:43:30egotrippenyeah
05:43:50egotrippenthe code i'm messing with will probably have to be rewritten for taht to happen, too
05:44:01egotrippenchanging the colors i was changes the colors of the WPS bitmaps, also
05:44:07egotrippeni was changing^
05:44:21egotrippener, lemme try that again
05:44:23Jungti1234:)
05:44:32egotrippenchanging the colors i was changing changes the colors of the WPS bitmaps, also
05:44:35egotrippenheh
05:44:45Jungti1234ow
05:45:35aliaskI'm messing around with colour bitmaps at the moment, adding transparency and some functions, but because I suck so badly at C, I'll probably never do anything useful.
05:46:03aliaskAnd also now that rockboy is running much better, more of my time is dedicated to pokemon. :(
05:46:18Jungti1234hahaha
05:46:19Jungti1234me too
05:46:34Jungti1234http://cafe.naver.com/iriverh300/1575
05:46:39aliask:)
05:46:56egotrippeni haven't had the chance to used the improved rockboy yet
05:47:07egotrippenmy battery is dying, i think. just ordered a 2200 mAh one
05:47:39aliaskIs the original 1300? You'll get a nice boost in life if it is.
05:47:50egotrippenyeah, that's right
05:47:56Jungti1234:)
05:48:02egotrippena fresh 2200 brings it to 20-24 hours
05:48:10Jungti1234Many Koreans changed battery.
05:48:34aliaskFor iRiver firmware, at least.
05:48:55Jungti1234It's 2100mAh battery of ipod.
05:48:55egotrippenit is tempting to blame rockbox for the decline in battery time i've seen recently, but i think it's a coincidence
05:49:14egotrippenit's a couple months more than a year old, about time for the battery to go
05:49:34aliaskDon't say that, my battery is a year old too D:
05:49:41egotrippenheh
05:49:48egotrippenwell, good luck, but the new batteries are cheap
05:49:59Jungti1234egotrippen, where are you from?
05:49:59aliaskHow much?
05:50:19egotrippeni'm from America, boston and just started going to college in new york
05:50:20aliaskSweden?
05:50:31Jungti1234ah.
05:50:47egotrippenthe 2200 mAh are $30 plus shipping on real online retailers
05:50:52egotrippenthe brand is newertech
05:51:04aliaskHrm not bad at all.
05:51:04egotrippenbut they go on eBay for around $20 shipping included
05:51:17Jungti1234A person who have H300 in Korea exceeds ten thousand people.
05:51:26egotrippencool
05:51:38egotrippenipod is 98% of market share in america
05:51:40egotrippensomething like that
05:51:46Jungti1234Perhaps, I think so.
05:51:54egotrippenwith ipod batteries, you have to change the wires
05:52:00egotrippenthere are a couple guides on Misticriver
05:52:23egotrippenit doesn't seem too hard, and no soldering involved inless you screw up :)
05:52:57 Nick DT291 is now known as DreamTactix291 (n=DreamTac@adsl-149-149-95.bna.bellsouth.net)
05:52:58Jungti1234Many Korean teenagerses have mp3 player and cellphone. :)
05:52:59egotrippeni just ordered a new battery, i'm hoping it comes before i have to make the drive back up to school
05:53:10egotrippen4-8 hour drive, depending on traffic and how lost i get
05:53:23egotrippenhere too
05:53:33Jungti1234um..? really?
05:53:50eEyeshould i go for a h300 or an X5L?
05:53:55egotrippenmaybe not as many
05:54:32Jungti1234Because there is no LCD's problem, X5L is better than H300.
05:54:52***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
05:54:58egotrippeneEye: with no knowledge of X5L specs, the H300 is a great machine and has rockbox already
05:55:35eEyeim just a little iffy with the size of the h300
05:55:38egotrippenat a year old, it's held its own very well in the market. i don't know how well it compares specifically, but i continue to be impressed with it
05:55:39lostlogicX5L better battery life, H300 better LCD, X5L smaller, better processor.
05:56:41egotrippeni find the H340 size comfortable, without a case
05:56:48egotrippeni go for the adhesive screen protectors
05:57:01egotrippenbut battery life is a major consideration

05:57:50egotrippen believe so
05:58:08egotrippen$200-$250 seems like a good range, but mind i haven't done much research
05:58:21egotrippeni got the H340 a year ago, never really looked at the '20
05:58:32egotrippeni've got too much music
05:59:14egotrippenoh, it's got USB host
05:59:40egotrippenthat's an international model, if it's got USB host, which makes it worth more. USB-OTG and instead of DRM
06:00
06:00:07eEyehow much music?
06:00:08Jungti1234H320 is about $205 in the Korea.
06:00:21eEyeprices in canada suck ;/
06:00:23egotrippenyou won't be able to play songs rented through napster, but if you get a card reader you'll be able to store digital camera photos or whatever on it
06:00:48Jungti1234It's no longer produced.
06:00:59aliaskX5 also has USBOTG i think.
06:01:06Jungti1234H340 is $285.
06:01:17egotrippeni've had ~30-35 gigs for a long time
06:01:40eEyei just hit 60gb ;/
06:01:48egotrippenmm
06:01:56Jungti1234X5 is 60GB, and USB Host(USB 2.0, OTG) support
06:01:57eEyethere is about 20gb of stuff i probably never even listened to yet
06:02:08egotrippenword is they're about to release 80 gig drives that fit the H340
06:02:09eEyeor that i currently dont listen to anymore
06:02:17eEyeoh really?
06:02:30egotrippenso if you want to pay for it, you'll be able to get a 40 gig upgrade for the H320
06:02:32 Join webguest25 [0] (n=40e9ad59@labb.contactor.se)
06:02:39Paul_The_NerdYep
06:02:50egotrippennew drives that fit 'em cost a lot, though. almost as much as the player itself
06:02:50Paul_The_NerdThe 40 gig exists already, though I don't think it's on sale individually yet.
06:02:56Jungti1234hey egotrippen
06:03:02egotrippenyes?
06:03:06Paul_The_NerdThe 80 gig dual platter should be in players *very* soon.
06:03:07Jungti1234Where is it?
06:03:41egotrippenthis is just what i've heard from misticriver. i don't think they're on the market yet
06:03:52Jungti1234ah..
06:04:03egotrippenword is, i guess, "*very* soon"
06:04:11Paul_The_NerdMK8007GAH I believe
06:04:12webguest25perpendicular?
06:04:18Paul_The_NerdYes, perpendicular.
06:04:25Jungti1234heh
06:04:33webguest25will they work though? besides the physical fitting prob?
06:04:45egotrippen60 gig drives have been used already
06:04:53webguest25nice
06:05:09webguest25so for h120, only upto 40 would be possible then, as of now?
06:05:16egotrippenand i believe someone has plugged a regular sized 80 gig drive into a H100 and it recognized it
06:05:16Paul_The_Nerdhttp://www.serverpartswarehouse.com/mk80gb1pmrhd.html
06:05:22webguest25oh
06:05:26Paul_The_NerdApparently the 80gig is on sale in at least one place, supposedly
06:05:32egotrippenheh
06:05:46webguest25400 bucks!
06:05:50egotrippenyeah
06:05:53egotrippenthey're pricy
06:05:54webguest25i'd just get another player :p
06:06:02Paul_The_NerdHehehe
06:06:04egotrippenespecially because they're brand new - they'll come down a bit
06:06:11Paul_The_NerdYeah, give it a little time.
06:06:12webguest25yeah i guess
06:06:14egotrippenbit they'll still be, well, pricy
06:06:19egotrippenbut they'll^
06:06:23Paul_The_NerdBut then so will players with them in it.
06:06:29egotrippenyup
06:06:35webguest25high cap batt + those hdd would be nice lil upgrade for good ol h1xx's
06:06:43egotrippenthe 60 gig ipod photo was around 600 when it came out, if i remember correctly
06:07:02Jungti1234hmm
06:07:05Jungti1234very slow
06:07:20webguest25now where would i get those color screens... *takes a look at the cellphone in a menacing way*
06:08:30egotrippenheh
06:08:47egotrippeni'm amazed at how well the H300 holds up to today's market, seeing as it's over a year old

06:17:46egotrippeni think because it has been influenced by so many other languages
06:17:50Jungti1234Korean is easy!
06:17:57egotrippenit's germanic, but heavily influenced by french
06:18:10egotrippeni have a friend learning japanese
06:18:17egotrippenthe grammar is so much more straightforward
06:19:02aliaskFro what I hear, the grammar is identical.
06:19:12egotrippenin japanese and korean?
06:19:16aliaskYeah
06:19:21egotrippencool
06:19:25Jungti1234heh
06:19:46egotrippeni'll be taking chinese in school soon
06:19:48Jungti1234Korean is beginning of Japanese.
06:19:49egotrippeni'm a little scared
06:20:07egotrippenit's all pictorams, no phonetics like japanese
06:21:38aliaskKorean is all phonetics, the alphabet is pretty logical too and easy to learn.
06:21:46egotrippencool

07:38:51B4gderI would assume so
07:39:45Membrillois a 40gb HDD the same physical size as the original 20gb in the player/
07:40:16B4gderafaik, yes. single-platter 1.8" disks should be the same physically

07:54:19B4gderno, it doesn't fit in a h320
07:54:33B4gderthe 340s use dual-platter disks

11:24:47amiconnIt installed fine, but I had 2 problems
11:25:19amiconn(1) I wasn't able to build vmware tools, b/c the kernel was built using gcc 3.4.5 vs. the installed gcc is 4.0.3
11:25:44amiconn(2) I wasn't able to make rhythmbox work although sound itself worked fine
11:25:56ashridahamiconn: hrm, that's usually just a matter of telling the vmware script to use gcc-3.4 to build with on debianalikes (assuming that's even handy)
11:26:15ashridahah. can't say i've used rhythmbox tho, i tend to be a kde user

14:18:46preglowPlease wait for search result: dumping database to text file...
14:19:03ashridahlinuxstb: no, even if it's there permanently
14:19:13preglowsearching a text file = not fast
14:19:18Bgerlinuxstb no access to the dbfiles ...
14:19:22linuxstbUnless you have a lot of data, I would argue that text files are more efficient than running a DB server
14:19:26preglowi'm not very fond of databases myself, but they do work when you have tons of info
14:19:29ashridahthe correct answer is "dump it to a text file *then import it into postgres and use PL/SQL, just for fun*"
14:19:54ashridahBger: you don't need access to the files themselves to run mysqldump :)
14:19:58preglowlinuxstb: you wouldn't need a very big text file before searching became wildly inefficient with text files as opposed to a proper db
14:20:08ashridahjust select access for whatever database you're using

14:46:37aliaskAh, I never realised before...
14:46:38XavierGrQuestion: I have this loop: for(i = 0; i <= last; i++). Variable "last" is 0. Am I right that the loop will run 1 time and then "i" will be 2?
14:46:59Bgerno
14:47:02aliask1
14:47:06XavierGrI mean i =1

14:47:22linuxstbThen yes - the loop will run once, and i will be 1.
14:47:26aliaskThen that's the way I see.
14:47:29XavierGryeah my bad. So in the end of the loop i will be incremented...

15:06:05adamdlet me swap back and see if it's just environmental changes maybe
15:06:08Membrilloim just speculating
15:06:08aliaskCould be interference from other hardware which we are not using.
15:06:08linuxstbWhich iriver?
15:06:13adamdh340
15:06:20Membrilloi know there is a physical tuner chip which manages it
15:06:35adamdremember 98.9MHz
15:06:43aliaskI think if you set the CPU at certain frequencies with the radio on you can get interference I think.
15:06:48jelle-kis the cpu in the iriver firmware running on 11 mhz too?
15:06:58jelle-kwhen in FM tuner mode
15:06:58aliaskWho knows.

15:07:39Membrillosounds good then
15:07:41adamdnot as bad as earlier but there's a difference
15:07:43eli_shererand i dont use memory allocation anymore
15:08:17aliaskWhat are the differences between sim and player?
15:08:22eli_shereri guess it's something to do with endian stuff
15:08:36adamdthat's why I wanted the more exact tuning, because at work I always get fuzz
15:08:39XavierGraliask: many
15:09:26aliaskI thought the sim emulated the hardware, or am I hallucinating?

15:15:37XavierGrticks / HZ = seconds right?
15:15:40eli_shereron the sim it draws a fuzzy picture that resamble the original picture (ill fix in in time)
15:16:00markunXavierGr: yes
15:16:09linuxstbWell, GIF files are little-endian, so you will have to take care of that in your code.
15:16:44eli_shereri know that they are LE but i use the readshort and readlong functions
15:16:44preglowprobably just the header where it matters, yeah?

15:16:59preglowplease, god, no!

15:17:37eli_shererand the animated header, i read anyway
15:17:41XavierGrwow, what about grayscale?
15:17:42linuxstbeli_sherer: Another difference between the sim and targets is stack size (I think).

15:19:42linuxstbDo you use plugin_get_buffer() ?
15:20:16eli_shereri did before the memory issues...now i just allocate in advance by pixelstack[MAXSTACKSIZE]

15:24:33stamppotDoes an iPod sync the playcounts for the different files over to iTunes, to determine track popularity?
15:25:14eli_shereri just need to know the difference between the sim and the target that make it don't work on the target the same as on the sim
15:25:40stamppotI'm using Amarok under Linux as my Audio player, and it would be nice if I could sync the "popularity" of my tracks over to Amarok.
15:26:13B4gdereli_sherer: why shouldn't they work the same?
15:26:24B4gderthe whole point of the sim is to have the same code
15:26:29stamppotThat way, I can have a unified view of the most popular songs.
15:27:07markunlinuxstb: how big is the rockbox bootloader for the ipods?
15:27:10stamppotDoes anyone know if it works like that in iTunes? Or doesn't the iPod have a notion of popularity?
15:27:17linuxstbstamppot: Yes, I think the ipod does that, but I don't use itunes unless I have to.
15:27:35linuxstbWhen listening to a song on the ipod, you can rate it.
15:27:54linuxstbBut I don't know if the info is sent back to itunes - I would imagine that it would be.
15:28:01preglowmarkun: about 60k
15:28:10markunok, thanks
15:28:51linuxstbThat's with a couple of logos in, and I'm sure it has some dead code that could be stripped out if size was a problem.
15:28:56stamppotLinuxstb: yeah, but that is something different. Rating is a user-set property. Popularity would be determined by the number of times you play it (playcount in Rockbox parlango)

15:30:20linuxstbBut the rockbox logo is so pretty....
15:30:32preglowlinuxstb: do you have any idea how retailos manages to boot straight like it does after a long sleep?
15:30:32stamppotPlaycount is nice, so that you can generate an on the fly playlist in Amarok containing unpopular or "forgotten" songs and send them to Rockbox
15:30:40preglowyou see the apple logo, so the bootloader is run
15:30:45preglowbut then our bootloader is skipped completely...
15:30:50linuxstbIs it?
15:30:54preglowyep
15:31:01linuxstbI never noticed that.
15:31:39preglowbut yeah, rockbox logo can stay if it must, but not much point in having the ipl logo anymore
15:31:53preglowcredits are there anyway
15:32:13markunOn the gigabeat we can also put our bootloader where the background images are now
15:32:23stamppotI find my self using my H300 at work, and using Amarok from home (working from the same Rsynced collection). It would be nice if I could keep them unified a bit more...

15:34:18stamppotI might dust off my C/C++ skills and try to write a module for Amarok that accomplishes this...
15:34:41stamppotAi.... Any plans on re-instating such a functionality?
15:35:33stamppotpreglow: what is the state of the tagdatabase?
15:35:34markunlinuxstb: I could. They are stored as 16 bit bitmaps. Probably RGB 5:5:5:1, as that is the mode the firmware sets for the LCD controller.
15:35:56B4gderstamppot: we await slasheri's tagcache
15:36:20stamppotB4gder: eagerly awaiting, I presume?
15:36:40B4gderwell, some might say so sure
15:36:53markunlinuxstb: still didn't write to the flash. I'll try to change a few bytes with dd next week.
15:37:11stamppotsorry if this has been asked before, but what is tagcache trying to accomplish beyond tagdatabase?
15:37:14linuxstbmarkun: Good luck.
15:37:40B4gderstamppot: it builds the tagdb entirely on target
15:38:05B4gderand it is a new stab at it
15:38:12B4gderperhaps it'll work better this time
15:38:26B4gderthe problem with the existing code is that no one care for it
15:38:49stamppotWell, I did...
15:39:13B4gderstamppot: then go ahead, build a tagdb install it and test it
15:39:19stamppotI'm using it all the time. It has some bugs, but I always presumed that they would be ironed out over time.
15:39:22B4gderit might work
15:39:27B4gderok
15:39:45preglowno, as it is, tagdb is pretty much abandoned
15:40:00preglowlooked like something might have happened to it, but nothing came of it
15:40:23preglowso now it's probably a half-baked mess
15:40:32stamppotOK, to avoid confusion: with tagdb I'm referring to the java-based songdb.jar stuff.
15:40:32preglowwhich in turn might explain why noone wants to touch it
15:40:37preglowyep
15:40:50B4gderthere's a perl tool as well
15:40:51preglowthe database tool being java doesn't help either...
15:40:56stamppotHmmm, it is still working...
15:40:57B4gderthey both build a tagdb
15:40:59linuxstbmarkun: Are there any kernel modules loaded from disk on the gigabeat? Could you patch one of those to start your bootloader?
15:41:19preglowB4gder: does the perl tool do as much as the java one does, currently?
15:41:28B4gderyes
15:41:32preglowgood
15:41:38stamppotI'm running a rockbox from 3 days ago and I can at least build playlists using the artist/album/genre tags...
15:42:12B4gderpreglow: hcl claims the java version has a better id3 parser though, which might be true I don't know
15:42:14stamppotAgreed, I don't use the search functionality (too awkward to do that with an on-screen keyboard, imho)
15:42:28preglowoh well
15:42:36markunlinuxstb: they are, but I can load my own kernel module with insmod of course.
15:42:40preglowat least tagcache will support _exactly_ what rockbox supports
15:42:43preglowfor obvious reasons
15:42:58stamppotOf course...
15:43:13B4gderyes, and any new host-side tools could use the *same* code for it

15:51:04Slasheripreglow: at the moment, nope. But maybe in two days :)
15:51:36stamppotSlasheri: OK, that would be neato...
15:51:54markunSlasheri: Better to leave them non unicode. People with different encodings mp3s can then change the default codepage for some files even after the db is built.
15:52:35Slasherihowever, the first version of tagcache will not include runtime db information, but that feature will be added soon
15:52:53preglowthen all looks well, if you ask me
15:52:59preglowhow does it work on archoses?

15:53:39NicoFRlostlogic: with your A-B repeat patch, AB_REPEAT_ENABLE set to 1, pressing the rec button causes the track to go in pause for a split second

15:57:38preglowall's well, having some quality time with c++ right now
15:58:17linuxstbeli_sherer: Just browsing it now. One thing that looks wrong is that your readshort and readlong routines (for big-endian) are returning signed values, but I think they should be unsigned.
15:59:30linuxstbIf I was you, the first thing I would check would be to make sure those two functions are working correctly in the sim - i.e. always use them, instead of only for big-endian targets
16:00
16:01:10linuxstbIn fact, all you need to do is to replace the calls to those functions with le2he32() and le2he16() - they are defined in system.h

16:15:12XavierGrBger: Sorry I thought that it was removed. Dumbass I was looking at the wrong folder!
16:15:41B4gderalphakiller: you would first have to persuade us that we need it
16:16:01markunhere we go again..
16:16:38preglowwhat would we need dynamic memory allocation for ?
16:16:42linuxstbalphakiller: There is a single block of memory (at a fixed location in RAM) where plugins are loaded to. Only one plugin is ever running at one time, and they are compiled to execute from that fixed address.
16:16:50preglowwe need to write a new developer faq or something
16:17:20B4gderyes
16:17:22alphakillerhmm .. I see
16:17:28alphakillerso no need
16:17:28alphakillerhehe
16:17:30alphakiller:P
16:17:53preglowour goal, when it comes to memory management, is to maximise the size of the leftover memory, since that becomes the mp3 buffer
16:18:18preglowif we start using dynamic memory allocation, that will, contrary to what you might first thing, give us less left-over memory
16:18:32alphakillerI got the point :D

16:19:11markunalphakiller: will you be working on rockbox or porting your java os to the ipod?
16:19:44alphakillernah, what I've made was just to explore the ARM ... heheh coz I'm gonna run it on another arm based system ...
16:19:52alphakilleri'll work on rockbox
16:20:12alphakillerI'm just saying that I've ported to learn a little bit more about ARM :P
16:20:19linuxstbalphakiller: How much of the hardware is your kernel using? e.g. have you enabled the cache?
16:20:42alphakillerlinuxstb: just the higher level core
16:21:25alphakillerI'm not using cache yet, nor any processor stuff .. I just fixed up some memory distribution stuff ... though, I just saw that ARM, as MIPS, needs memory addresses aligned to 4 bytes
16:21:41alphakillerso I fixed that on my microkernel core ... just improving the real core porting ..
16:21:43alphakillernothing else
16:22:15alphakillerbut yes, I'm very interested on rockbox :D
16:22:21preglowit'll vomit quite copiously if you give it unaligned addresses yes
16:22:21XavierGrdo I need to rb->button_get() to see if the user connected the USB cable?
16:22:38alphakilleryeah, but I didn't know that :D
16:22:39alphakillerhehehe
16:23:19alphakillerso I had to adapt some parts of the core to do that .. and cleaned code ..
16:23:27alphakiller(my microkernel)
16:23:34alphakillerjust part of my "normal job"
16:23:59alphakillerI prefer playing with my own stuff, before working with other's :D
16:24:27alphakillerbut I think I'm able to help ..
16:24:42alphakillerjust need to get more experience now on arm asm ...
16:25:02alphakillerand read a bit more on architecture details
16:26:33linuxstbWhat ARM is your "real" target using?
16:29:15amiconnpreglow: arm needs data aligned, like sh1? Or just instructions (which is common afaik)?
16:29:35preglowlike sh1
16:29:48amiconninteresting...
16:30:00amiconnAt least this won't be ignored then :)
16:30:16preglowall data accesses need to be aligned to their natural size
16:30:19preglowafaik
16:31:42B4gderI believe that's right
16:32:32linuxstbamiconn: Have you tried the SDL sim in Windows?
16:33:16preglowcode alignment is actually used to indicate if the branch target is arm or thumb code, when using the bx instruction. if the lsb is 1, it's thumb, if 0, arm
16:33:16 Join DangerousDan [0] (n=Miranda@newtpulsifer.campus.luth.se)
16:33:47preglowthe address isn't used like that for fetching code, of course, it's just an indicator

16:44:36linuxstbIt's a new (third) simulator - the intention is to replace the X11 and win32 simulators with the SDL one.
16:45:10XavierGrso we will have a unified one then?
16:45:35linuxstbThat's the idea.
16:45:57linuxstbIt should also compile on Mac OS X - I'm hoping to give it a go this weekend.

17:27:56linuxstbSo if the host cpu is little-endian, letoh16() does nothing.
17:28:23eli_sherergif is LE hence the "le" and and H300 is BE hence the "h" for host?

18:28:05sanitariumbut it does in iRiver Firmware

18:28:19sanitariumthanks
18:28:35linuxstbOK, so it's not just a bootloader problem, it's a general Rockbox problem as well.
18:29:58MmmmLinusN: so i've made this patch http://homepage.ntlworld.com/martin.scarratt/metronomeaccbpm.patch what do you think?
18:30:53MmmmLinusN: it includes the fix for pcm_stop too
18:31:14sanitariumdoes it mount for you linuxstb?

18:57:14eli_sherernow i use the dynamic allocation again cause it's better and faster
18:57:15linuxstbSure.
18:57:52NicoFRnow it works again

21:49:45 Quit dpassen1 ()
21:49:50preglowbecause the volume is in decibels
21:50:01preglowwhich is a rather meaningful way to show volume changes
21:50:22preglowwe're aware that people who don't know what decibels are might be confused, but still, it's not hard to get used to, is it?
21:50:42vektekI guess it would make more sense if I was clever
21:50:46preglowhehe
21:50:47preglowwell
21:50:54preglow-6 = half the volume of 0
21:50:59preglow-12 = half the volume of -6
21:51:00preglowand so on
21:51:07preglowthis way the numbers actually mean something
21:51:53vektekso is there such a thing as + decibels?

21:52:06preglowbut 0 db is commonly used as "max level"

22:59:33preglowi think it'll be pretty much impossible as it is
22:59:39lostlogicNeed help: To make AB repeat work seemlessly, I calculate when to jump without hte PCM buffer latency so that it jumps when the PCM buffer has been filled to the right frame. Thsi is all fine and dandy, but the UI is wrong, because it draws _with_ accounting for the latency, and also shows the bar jump LATENCYms before the audio jumps.

23:31:11mirakdamn, no wonder why I didn't knew what are the gigabeats. They are not distributed in france

23:31:41lowlightLear: I only noticed because I've been messing with auto-removing the encoder gaps for non-lame files and the end gap was always a frame off.

23:32:37preglowthat's weird, gapless mp3 playback has been working okish for me
23:32:50preglowbut then again, i don't think i have many id3v1 files

23:33:05lowlightbtw, audacity has the same problem (the final frame is missing).
23:34:59preglowprobably uses libmad, then
23:35:11lowlightpreglow: I've noticed a lot of lame mp3s have enc_padding > 1 frame, so you might not notice.

23:37:17linuxstb_Lear: Did I understand that you have your own mp4 parser?
23:37:29lowlightpreglow: Just to be clear, it appears to effect files _without_ id3v1 tags.
23:38:18Learlinuxstb_: yes, I do.

23:38:34BHSPitMonkeyman, i can't wait for the rockbox emulator for iPL
23:38:35BHSPitMonkeyXD
23:39:00Bagderbuild the rockbox sim and run it on ipl ;-)
23:39:11linuxstb_Does SDL run on the ipod?
23:39:34Bagderright, there's probably a lack of ui lib
23:39:48perplexitywhy not.. ipl uses an fb does it not? Just might need some work on the kbd handling
23:39:56linuxstb_Lear: Do you plan to incorporate it into Rockbox? The one that's there is just taken from the alac decoder - so it's not very complete.
23:39:58BHSPitMonkeyhmm that's actually a thought -provoking idea
23:40:44Learyes, the idea is to do that, once it is more tested...
23:40:52uwe_linuxstb: AFAIK SDL does run on ipl
23:41:39linuxstb_Lear: Good. I assume you're testing it with ALAC as well?
23:42:01LearWell, if you could provide me with a file, sure. :)
23:42:13LearBut I don't see why it wouldn't work. Same container, right?
23:42:55linuxstb_There's some minor differences IIRC, but shouldn't be hard. I'll upload a file for you now.
23:43:19lowlightLear: Found this regarding decoding last frame: http://www.mars.org/mailman/public/mad-dev/2001-May/000262.html
23:43:42preglowlowlight: well, strange, my files are mostly without, but this does explain an ancient problem i had with libmad, where it somehow never would give me the last frame.....
23:44:30Learlowlight: read a shorter, more recent, comment about it.
23:44:42Learpreglow: yes, that would explain that comment...
