#rockbox log for 2006-01-24

00:00:03JdGordonwhats the command to compile 1 .c file to a dll (a rock for the windows sim) so i dont have to do make every time?
00:00:16Bagderamiconn: yes, but a lot simpler
00:00:45amiconnI would expect cvs to be able to trigger external commands on a commit
00:00:55Bagderit can, it sends emails for example
00:01:27linuxstbJdGordon: There is no simple command.
00:01:35JdGordon:( bugger
00:01:49amiconnWhy is 'make' such a problem?
00:01:51JdGordonwhat about a not so simple command that is still faster than make?
00:01:58linuxstbIf you type "make V=1" you will see what happens.
00:02:06amiconnIt only rebuilds those parts which depend on what you've changed

01:27:19jf2Two questions for someone: 1) This is not exactly the right fourm for this but I bet someone knows: Due to a few factors I went away from home without my iRiver IHP 120, but I am curious, does anyone know if it will play incripted Windows Media (ie. Napster files?) 2) Rockbox will not work with such files, correct?
01:27:50ashridahthe H120 won't play DRM'ed windows media
01:28:22ashridahand there's no support for wma yet (no-one's working on porting the ffmpeg codec for it atm afaik either), and will probably never be support for protected wma.
01:28:27JdGordondid any1 try the timetable plugin i posted last night?
01:29:25jf2i got it. thanks ash. two answers I didn't want! :) heh. but I can at least add rockbox to make on the fly play lists
01:29:37MoosJdGordon: sorry h140 here
01:31:13jf2i can make multiple on the fly playlists when I install, correct? or is it just one that has to be overwritten when I want to create a new one?
01:31:45JdGordonits bassically finished.. so ill fix it up for the h140 later today
01:32:01ashridahjf2: playlists can be saved to .m3u files
01:32:07ashridahso you can make as many as you like
01:32:35MoosJdGordon: isn't use RTC?
01:32:39jf2good. that is the most appealing feature of Rockbox for me. awesome.
01:33:17JdGordonMoos: not really... it only uses it to jump to the current day/time. but that can be done with the arrows easy enough
01:33:46Moosok
01:33:59gromit`hey

02:02:53Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb: Certainly. Sorry, wasn't really here for a bit
02:03:19Paul_The_NerdThis client still doesn't notify my well when my name's mentioned.
02:04:32linuxstbnp. I've got the bootloader loading the retailos from a file on the fat32 partition. It works on my Color, but not on my Video.
02:04:48linuxstbSo I was wondering how it did on the Nano.
02:05:09linuxstbPatch here: http://www.davechapman.f2s.com/rockbox/retailos.diff
02:05:37 Join muesli__ [0] (n=muesli_t@88.134.20.76)
02:05:50linuxstbHere is the shell script I use to create and install the firmware partition (you will obviously have to adapt it): http://www.davechapman.f2s.com/rockbox/boot2.txt
02:06:11linuxstbAnd finally, copy "apple_os.bin" to your Nano's FAT32 partition.
02:07:00linuxstbThis probably isn't much of an advantage to you (apart from potentially simplifying installation), but it cuts about 4-5 seconds off my bootup time on my Color.
02:07:40linuxstbBut I need to go to bed now - let me know how you get on (if you try it). I'll check the logs in the morning.
02:08:14Paul_The_NerdAllright
02:08:31Paul_The_NerdI'll try it in a few minutes then.
02:10:10lostlogic*scowl* pcmbuf_request_buffer can give the same buffer twice in a row, unless I misread badly.
02:16:24Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb: If you're still here, is this all the differences? It breaks the goto retailos statement, if I applied it properly (it got rejected, so I had to do it manually)

02:22:06Paul_The_NerdCould someone on a linux box do me a favor?

02:22:57Paul_The_Nerddd if=/dev/zero of=dummy.bin bs=1024 count=1 <−− Just run this, and give me the file. I know I could probably do very nearly equivalent things in windows, but this exact step has the desired result, and it's easier if I just duplicate it exactly.
02:23:23lostlogichaha
02:23:24lostlogicsure
02:23:48Paul_The_NerdI want to make sure that if it completely screws up the bootloader, it's something other than some quick step I took to avoid rebooting into linux.

02:24:41J32USis anyone here working on the gigabeat project?
02:25:01lostlogicj32us: the only one really developing for it is markun if he's around
02:27:43J32USreally? hmm
02:28:49Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb: Panic: stkov if you forget to copy the file over. If you do actually not do that completely stupid act, it gets to the Executing... bit, and then seems to stay there. At least, it's been about a minute so far and RetailOS hasn't loaded.

07:24:37JdGordonplayer looks damn fine tho :D
07:26:30eEyelooks like they are trying to hard to imitate the look of the ipod
07:26:51eEyeinstead of trying to imitate and recreate that kind of look i think the companies should try to make there own style

07:48:00Jungti1234I have question
07:48:51Jungti1234Can H300 int'l model hardware support DRM?
07:49:27ashridahisn't there a chip missing on the international players?

07:49:39Bgerit's the reverse
07:49:54 Quit EvilDude ()
07:49:59Bgerthere are some components missing in the *US* version, but i wouldn't call them chips
07:50:07Bgerthey are some capaciters, resistors ...

07:50:27BgerJungti1234 this is a lie
07:50:34Jungti1234ah?
07:50:36Bgerthe problem is in the DRM code
07:50:41Bgernot in the hardware

07:52:02Jungti1234Circumstantiate more.
07:53:45Jungti1234Explain more please.
07:54:06ashridahi'm more or less assuming DRM is a variant of a public/private key system.
07:54:49Bgerthere are 2 rumours regarding the code
07:54:57BgerDRM code
07:55:09Jungti1234'rumours'?
07:56:08ashridahJungti1234: you have to understand, DRM is a closed system, and in many countries, it's illegal to try to reverse engineer it. there's not a fantastic amount of real specs about, unless you feel like paying for the privilege to read them
07:56:18Bger1) the DRM code is located in a block of the flash (and the structure of the .hex firmware file allows flashing it on blocks, so some blocks can be skipped)
07:56:30Bger2) the DRM code is located in the EEPROM
07:58:26BgerLinusN is the man who can reveal the truth

08:29:31amiconnSlasheri: yes
08:29:48*amiconn whispers "combined bitmap loading"
08:30:04amiconnI know there is a patch for this...
08:30:12Slasherii think the bitmaps should be even compiled to native format before loading them..
08:30:27Slasherii did some timing and noticed the bmp loader is slow
08:31:05Jungti1234http://cafefiles.naver.net/data16/2006/1/24/47/Untitled-1.gif
08:31:19midkaysorry, i'm a bit behind the times.. BMP loader, as in, rockbox loads its bitmaps from disk? :)
08:31:21Jungti1234funny picture.
08:31:36dwihnoJungti1234: Erhm. What does that image tell? :)
08:31:44dwihno"You are bad" "Yes I am, mohahah!" ?
08:31:59Jungti1234hahahahahaha
08:32:01Slasheriamiconn: and i just put the audio initialization on background, so now the wps loader is almost the only thing which increases the boot time
08:32:34Jungti1234dwihno: It says about H300 LCD problem.
08:33:11Jungti1234"Change LCD!" "No!"
08:33:31dwihnoah, okay
08:34:13Jungti1234Soon New Year's Day comes...
08:34:31Jungti1234Home delivery service stops.
08:35:02amiconnSlasheri: I don't think the bitmaps should be in native format. Would be far too cumbersome for users to create wps'es
08:35:31Slasheriamiconn: ah, true.. then the wps loader should probably automatically convert them to native format..
08:35:32LinusNamiconn: i'm thinking about transparent bitmaps, but i'm not sure how i want to implement it
08:35:33amiconnThe bmp loader could receive some optimisation work...
08:35:49amiconnLinusN: What for? Background image only?
08:35:51Slasheriso just keep the current separate bmp method and convert them runtime at first load
08:36:00LinusNeither a single transparent color, or some blending
08:36:30amiconnLinusN: That's some of the lowest prio in gfx work for me. So many areas which are far from finished.
08:36:31Slasheriand that way create a cache file for the wps which could be loaded really fast at boot time..
08:36:43amiconnReal alpha will probably be really slow.
08:36:48LinusNindeed
08:36:54amiconn*Really* slow I mean, by factors
08:37:27amiconnSlasheri the cacheri ;)
08:37:46LinusNSlasheri: speaking of cache, how's the tag cache nowadays?
08:37:58amiconnNah, I wouldn't want rockbox to cache too much in files. There's already a lot of clutter in /.rockbox
08:38:19SlasheriLinusN: currently i haven't had much time for that in the past few weeks.. but maybe at next weekend :)
08:38:25*JdGordon votes for more chached files to speed up load :D
08:38:26LinusNgoodie
08:38:33ashridahwouldn't you be able to accelerate the alpha mapping using the emac unit?
08:38:40Slasheriamiconn: hehe, probably i could take a look on that too.. shouldn't be hard to implement
08:38:41LinusNcombined wps bitmaps would be a blessing
08:39:38amiconnLinusN: There should be a patch by _Firefly_ in the tracker for this
08:39:39LinusNamiconn: have you had a look at my color bmp loader patch?
08:39:47amiconnDidn't have time to look at it...
08:39:51LinusNok
08:40:21LinusNit appears to work fine for the misticriver crowd
08:40:38amiconnCurrently my local tree is rather cluttered, as the language cleanup is still unfinished. Then there is memmove(), memset16() for optimising 16bit gfx...
08:40:48Bgerhaha LinusN the betatester comunity
08:40:55Jungti1234hahaha
08:41:29amiconnLinusN: ALready checked out greyscale cube on archos? :-)
08:41:30LinusNamiconn: still considering changing the framebuffer alignment?
08:41:36amiconnyes
08:41:40amiconnAh, no
08:41:47LinusNamiconn: no, i haven't tried the cube
08:41:55amiconnNot the framebuffer alignment, but the mono bitmap format
08:42:01LinusNah yes
08:42:26amiconnBtw, changing the framebuffer would be another option, as the LCD allows switching the update direction
08:42:47amiconnThen the framebuffer would go in columns instead of rows
08:43:10amiconnDunno how hard it would be to get this working on iPod though...

09:05:02SlasheriHmm, true. trying that also
09:06:22LinusNwhat was your idea?
09:06:45amiconnLinusN: Btw, if you want to get an impression of how much speedup for H3x0 lcd we need:
09:07:15amiconnTake H1x0 and H3x0, start cube on both and switch to high speed mode. Then compare... :-/
09:07:17Slasherilittle cpu optimization inside the loop. But as i now tried, the open(...) takes the longest time.. so we need only one file to load
09:08:59LinusNamiconn: ouoch
09:15:19amiconnLinusN: Btw, the solid cube on archos now has about the same speed as on H3x0, even though it uses the complex mechanisms of the grayscale library
09:15:30LinusNcool
09:15:39amiconnOkay, archos has far less pixels, but then it also has a way smaller CPU

12:11:29preglowanyone got any ideas on how to implement cue file support? :>
12:13:24LinusNpreglow: one idea is to treat a cue file like a playlist
12:14:03preglowyup, i'd definitely do that
12:14:31LinusNthe question is if we want to treat it one long track or several small
12:14:32preglowso just tack on support for file positions to playlists? heh
12:14:39preglowseveral small, i'd say
12:14:46LinusNi'm not so sure
12:14:55preglowoh?
12:15:07LinusNtreating it as a set of tracks may give us other problems
12:15:17LinusNlike how to handle shuffle and resume
12:15:29preglowmyeah
12:15:30preglowtrue
12:15:43preglowbut yeah
12:15:52linuxstbWe should also think about "chained" ogg files and MP4 chapters - they are similar to cue files.
12:15:55preglowhow to handle skipping and such if it appears as one big file?
12:15:59preglows/file/song/
12:16:01LinusNlast time i gave this some thought, i kind of settled for the single-track approach
12:16:26LinusNand adding support for multiple tags and skip-points
12:17:00LinusNwhich would mean that you can't shuffle the tracks in a queue file
12:17:13preglowlinuxstb: how do you discover if an ogg file is chained? you need to seek, i presume?
12:18:06linuxstbYes - the metadata parser should identify that. IIRC each ogg file has a unique serial number - so pages at the end of the file will have a different serial number to pages at the start.
12:18:23preglowogg really isn't the most elegant container format in existence
12:18:28linuxstbIt's a dog.
12:19:56linuxstbThe only good container format I've found is mp4. It simply stores the compressed and uncompressed size of every frame in the header. Some may think it's a waste of space, but it makes life very easy.
12:20:41preglowyes, i agree
12:20:48linuxstbThe uncompressed size is normally constant (apart from the last frame), and this is encoded as simply X frames of length N, plus 1 frame of length M. So that only takes a few bytes.
12:20:52preglowit's negligible
12:23:07linuxstbBut going back to cuefiles, when I looked at implementing it in Rockbox a few years ago, I think I just had a boolean "has_cuefule" attached to each track. If this boolean was true, then the progress bar displayed vertical lines to indicate the track boundaries, and next/previous skipped to the next/previous track within the file.
12:23:54preglowthe seek bar might end up having a very low resolution
12:24:00preglowi'm not convinced that's very helpful

12:25:42preglowmy prefered implementation as a user would indeed have every title in a cue file appear as a separate track in all ways
12:25:46preglowbut of course, that might be cumbersome
12:25:49preglowcode-wise
12:26:02LinusNvery
12:26:24LinusNthe playlist code would be very tricky
12:26:28linuxstbI would still like to know that I am in one long file though, and how far through that file I am.
12:27:14LinusNthe major drawback of the singlefile approach would be that it isn't possible to shuffle, or insert/queue tracks
12:27:19linuxstbI think I would ideally like two progress bars - one for the current track, and one for the cuefile.
12:29:14 Join Maxime [0] (n=flemmard@fbx.flemmard.be)
12:29:14preglowbut yeah, i wonder what to do about the seeking problem
12:29:14 Quit Maxime` (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
12:29:27preglowwe'll use either fast and very inaccurate seeking, or slow and accurate
12:29:33preglowfoobar uses the last, and is slow even on pcs
12:29:50Rob2222Well, 12:30 MP3 runtime now... at my RB test my battery was empty after 12:30. The Iriver FW switched from 3 to 2 battery indicators.
12:30:04linuxstbI think cuefiles demand accurate seeking. But Rockbox should only ask the codecs to seek - it is up to the codecs to do the best job they can.
12:30:15Rob2222Looks like Iriver FW is still a little better.
12:30:37linuxstbIs this a H300?
12:30:40Rob2222yes
12:30:58Rob2222Will see when the player shuts off.
12:31:24linuxstbCan you put your test results in the IriverRuntime Wiki page?
12:31:50Rob2222Yes, i can. With battery log files?
12:32:18linuxstbpreglow: So are you planning to implement cue support, or are you just thinking about how it could work?
12:32:48linuxstbRob2222: Why not. You could add an extra column in the test table for log files.
12:32:50preglowjust thinking, since i just was playing a cue based file on my player
12:32:57preglowand found it incredibly boring, heh

14:10:48Membrilloall i understand is #define creates a variable i think?
14:10:55linuxstbStart reading the code to the Rockbox plugins to see if you can understand them. I'm sure googling for "c tutorial" will give you one or two websites.

14:12:37Membrilloso what software do i need?
14:12:43linuxstbMembrillo: No, things starting with a # are known as pre-processor directives. These are processed before the compiler sees your program. A simple example is "#define LCD_WIDTH 220" - this means that the pre-processor will replace LCD_WIDTH with 220 everywhere in your code before it's compiled.
14:13:12Membrillooh ok fair enough. and they are always at the top?
14:13:16Bgerno
14:13:20Bgerthey can be anywhere

14:13:49Membrilloeasy enough
14:13:52linuxstb(normally)
14:13:54Bgerthat is, if a line starts with #, the whole line is considered for the preprocessor

14:14:36Membrilloso it will be exactly the same as starting programming from scratch?
14:14:38preglowit's the same type of imperative programming
14:14:46preglowbut the syntax doesn't have too many similarities

14:15:17Jungti1234'Helloworld.c'is difficult too.
14:15:21SlasheriMembrillo: almost, yes. But after you have learned C i can promise it will be very easy to learn any other language (almost at least)
14:15:21preglownow try learning haskell, and you'll have to learn programming again :)

14:30:46XavierGrcan you believe this? It is like I lost 433 euros in advancedmp3players.
14:30:58SlasheriMembrillo: yep, that should display "Hello world!" for two seconds
14:31:01BgerMembrillo look at apps/plugin.h
14:31:09Bgerthere is explanation
14:31:15Bgerfor each function
14:31:24Bger"explanation"
14:31:25linuxstbMembrillo: Do you have an ipod video?
14:31:38Bgerlooks like he has a h300
14:31:43BgerXavierGr ??
14:31:49Membrillooh ok
14:31:57Membrillolinuxstb: yes i do
14:32:07Membrilloi have an ipod video and an h320
14:32:58linuxstbOne useful job (once you get comfortable with Rockbox and C) would be making the existing plugins (including the "plugbox" h300 plugins) work nicely on the video.
14:33:23Bgerhahaha linuxstb
14:33:29linuxstbOr just making the existing Rockbox plugins work on the h320.
14:33:39Membrillohmmm, that might take a while
14:33:40linuxstbI mean work better on the h320.
14:33:53Membrilloit will take me some time to get familiar with C
14:34:47Membrillohow is #if different to #ifdef
14:35:13Bger#ifdef X test whether there was #define X before that
14:35:47Membrillooh ok
14:35:57linuxstb#ifdef X is exactly the same as #if defined(X)
14:36:06linuxstbIt's just a handy shortcut.
14:36:14Membrilloso basically checks wether a 'variable' is empty or not. in a way
14:36:25Bgerhm, no
14:36:30Bgerit's a preprocessor thing
14:37:09Membrillowell #define replaces X with a value. and #ifdef checks wether X has a value? is that rihgt?
14:37:09Bgerit's like whether the preprocessor has defined X [ = value] or hasn't
14:37:23Bgeru can have "unvalued" define
14:37:57Membrilloan example?
14:38:07Bgerlike
14:38:09Bger#define X
14:38:15Bger#ifdef X
14:38:22Bgerthe last one will be true
14:38:43Bgerbut you could have #define X 3
14:38:44Bgeralso
14:39:13Membrilloso what will #define X do? open a spot in the memory for X but leave it empty?
14:39:29BgerMembrillo there's no memory for this
14:39:39Bgerit's just used in the process of compiling
14:39:51Membrillooh ok
14:40:02Membrillowell, what will #define X do without a value after X?
14:40:18Bgerit will just be true in tests like #if defined(X)
14:40:18Membrillowhats to pre-process?
14:40:27Membrilloaaaaah

14:40:53linuxstbRockbox uses it for true or false things like HAVE_LCD_BITMAP
14:41:14Membrillook
14:42:13Membrilloso you could define having a colour LCD screen at the top under X, and later on you could have "ifdef X then <display colours>"
14:42:23XavierGrMembrillio: Look at this example: Some targets have colour screen others don't, so that means different code for each option. But how are we going to compile the correct code?
14:42:27Membrillootherwise its a monochrome lcd
14:42:28XavierGrWe use defines
14:42:44Membrilloyes thats what i thought up there ^
14:42:46Jungti1234Paprica?
14:42:57XavierGrWe set HAVE_LCD_REMOTE for targets that have remote lcds
14:43:14XavierGrthen when we want code to be compiled only for that option we use an ifdef
14:43:20lostlogicMembrillo: there are several steps to compiling a C program: first the preprocessor handles all of the # stuff which basically generates a new preprocessed C file with all of the #defines processed into the text of the file, the compiler then compiles that into assembly instructions, and finally the assembler turns the assembly into binary machine code.
14:43:54Bgerand after that is the linker .....
14:43:58XavierGrso if the user is going to compile for archos the code that corresponds to the lcd remote will not be compiled
14:43:59Membrilloso for each different version of a plugin you will have a different #define up the top and that will affect the output completely
14:44:19XavierGryes e.g some plugins are not for the sim
14:44:29lostlogicMembrillo: the defines actually end up coming from other files, but in essence yes
14:44:37XavierGrif you open the.c file of such plugin you will see an #ifdef in it
14:44:40linuxstbThe main #defines for all the different targets are in firmware/export/config-*.h
14:44:59Membrillook
14:45:02PapricaJungti1234?
14:45:35Jungti1234I have question
14:46:10Membrilloso you have something like HAVE_COLOUR_LCD? and if thats true (the player has a colour LCD) then you define something or rather up the top saying that?
14:46:59XavierGrmembrillio: open up bejeweled.c
14:47:19lostlogicMembrillo: you don't have to redefine anything, you can just do #ifdef HAVE_COLOUR_LCD code code code code #endif anywhere in your source file. the code will only be compiled if that's defined
14:47:57MembrilloXavierGr: where is bejeweled.c?
14:48:11XavierGrapps/plugins
14:48:35Membrillooh i get it. So all the definitons for each different build are in a file. and you reference that in your plugin
14:49:01Membrilloim in bejeweled.c
14:49:04Jungti1234Paprica
14:49:04XavierGryes different parts of code in there will b compiled for different targets using the #ifdef
14:49:25Membrilloahhhh
14:49:29XavierGrin compile time (as you probably remember) you choose which target you build
14:49:32Membrillothats why the source code is so huge
14:49:38Rob2222Iriver runtime (MP3 128 ABR) now 1h50m over RB runtime and still 2 bars left. muahaha
14:49:42Membrilloyeah i remember that
14:49:58XavierGrso if you build for iriver the defines for the iriver target are created.
14:50:04Membrilloso compiling goes through all the #ifdefs and works out which code to use
14:50:21XavierGrso when the compiler goes to a .c file it will only compile parts of the code that has iriver defines
14:50:26XavierGryes

14:50:32Membrilloi understand it

14:50:46Membrilloso i guess all the defines are stored in multiple files?
14:51:06lostlogicRob2222: time to make the audio engine faster, go to it.
14:51:10Membrilloso #ifdef HAVE_LCD_BITMAP is has a colour screen?
14:51:25XavierGrno because iriver h100 has that define too
14:51:37B4gderLCD_BITMAP means a bitmapped LCD
14:51:40lostlogicMembrillo: no, that's for if the LCD is rendered by pixel, som eof the archos LCDs are rendered by character instead
14:51:44BgerMembrillo there are 2 rb targets with charcell display
14:51:55Membrillowhats special about an lcd bitmp
14:52:00Rob2222lostlogic: Hehe. This test is my 3rd discharge of my "2200mA" battery. Will take another RB after that iriver test
14:52:03Membrillooh ok
14:52:07BgerMembrillo u can write what you want on them
14:52:08Membrilloi know what you mean
14:52:40Bgerand charcells are based on blocks ... and you tell them "write this character at this position"
14:52:40Membrilloso, it will take a while to learn how to use all the defines
14:52:52Rob2222afk
14:53:25Membrillook. i now understand definitions
14:53:50Membrillobasically
14:54:04XavierGrMembrillio: better start with C syntax variables structures functions and then pointers
14:55:18linuxstbMembrillo: The only defines you really need to worry about in plugins are CONFIG_KEYPAD, HAVE_LCD_BITMAP, LCD_WIDTH, LCD_HEIGHT and LCD_DEPTH (and maybe HAVE_LCD_COLOR)
14:55:22 Join chopped_pork [0] (n=solid@pc176-194.ghnet.pl)
14:55:32linuxstbYou'll find lots of examples of they are used in the plugins.
14:55:41Membrillook
14:55:46Membrilloso whats LCD_DEPTH?
14:55:53linuxstbHow many bits per pixel.
14:56:06Membrilloah ok
14:56:20linuxstbArchos devices have 1bpp, the H1x0 is 2bpp and all the colour lcds are 16bpp
14:56:40Membrilloso every build has LCD_DEPTH LCD_WIDTH etc, but they are defined under different values
14:56:53linuxstbYes.
14:57:24linuxstbThe convention is for "optional" defines to begin with "HAVE_" - so you test them using #ifdef HAVE_.....
14:57:50Membrilloso for some H300 code you could use #ifdef LCD_DEPTH 16?
14:58:22Membrilloor isnt it that simple
14:58:28Bgerit isn't
14:58:31B4gderalmost
14:58:35Membrilloit never is
14:58:43B4gder#if LCD_DEPTH == 16
14:58:52Membrilloah ok
14:58:56B4gderbut then there are many models with 16 bit depths
14:59:00Membrilloso why two equals signs?
14:59:15B4gderMembrillo: it is a comparion, they use two signs in C
14:59:20B4gderassignments use one
14:59:31Membrillook
14:59:31B4gdera = 2 vs a == 2
14:59:49Membrilloah ok
15:00
15:00:02Membrilloso #if a =2 makes no sense
15:00:13Bgerhm, it makes ...
15:00:14Membrillobut #if a == 2 does
15:00:30B4gderdon't confuse the preprocessor instructions with the actual C code
15:00:30Bgerbut i don't know how's this in preprocessor
15:00:44***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
15:00:57Membrilloyeah ive got it

15:01:28Membrilloso what if you wanted #if LCD_DEPTH less than 16
15:01:35BgerMembrillo in c code if you have "if(a=2)" this is true ...
15:01:41Membrillook
15:01:46Bgerbecause (a=2) has value of 2
15:01:53Bgerand 2 != 0 so it is true
15:01:54Membrillowell i have to run now but ill check out some more of the plugins later
15:02:01Membrillosee ya

15:21:02preglowno, you can do several
15:21:07preglowthere are four mmap regs, i think
15:21:13linuxstbAh, OK.
15:21:36preglowat least the ipl wiki lists four
15:21:51linuxstbSo in theory at least we should be able to map IRAM to 0x0 and SDRAM close enough to never need long jumps?
15:22:06preglowyeah, so long as we keep our code at the start

15:33:16linuxstbThe idea is for plugins and codecs to be fixed at the very start of SDRAM - before the rockbox binary
15:33:29linuxstbInstead of the very end.
15:33:32amiconnWell, if that's possible...
15:33:52linuxstbWe can then do run-time detection of the available RAM - meaning 1 less target.
15:34:41amiconnIn fact this would be possible on other targets too where we have our own loader
15:34:54amiconn(thinking of H100 vs. H120)
15:35:14linuxstbYep.
15:36:21amiconnIt would mean that crt0.S has to detect the RAM size, and probably set some flag somewhere too
15:36:38amiconn(H100 and H120 have one slight difference apart from the RAM size)
15:36:43linuxstbWhy crt0.S? Isn't that RAM just used for the audio buffer?
15:37:17amiconnThe RAM has to be initialised properly
15:37:26amiconnNah, it's done in the loader
15:37:31amiconnbootloader
15:37:40linuxstbAt worse, we can have separate bootloaders.
15:38:29amiconnStill, rockbox has to know the RAM size, for setting the buffer end address and for setting the proper DRAM refresh on frequency change

16:28:05Rob2222After my IR bench is complete, I make again a bench with the old version, to check if maybe the battery capacity has rised. after that i will make a final RB bench with a actual version without battery_bench plugin. I'll keep you informed.
16:29:39linuxstbIf anyone's interested, I've just tested the speed of starfield on my two ipods (Color and Video) and H140. The ipod color achieves 33fps, the Video 14fps and the H140 does 36fps. This is after removing the sleep(1) from the main loop.
16:31:08linuxstbMy "fps display" patch is here if anyone wants to try other targets: http://www.davechapman.f2s.com/rockbox/starfield_fps.diff
16:31:19linuxstbI would be curious to know the h300 result.

16:45:57preglowlinuxstb: btw, i think i know how to do the remapping now
16:46:26linuxstbCool. So if we mapped IRAM to 0x0, how close to it could we put SDRAM?
16:46:43preglowwithin 512k, if i'm correct
16:46:51preglowif the specs i've got are true, i'm wrong
16:47:30linuxstbSo you're assuming that the top two bits mean something?
16:49:16preglowwell, i hope they
16:49:17preglowdo
16:49:22preglowi they don't we can't remap iram
16:50:17preglowbtw, it doesn't seem to me like the video lcd can get very much faster without offloading screen drawing routines to the broadcom chip
16:53:59linuxstbAccording to what I've heard the ipl people say, it's the lcd_bcm_finishup() function that takes all the time. But I haven't really looked at it yet - I'm mostly ignoring the video for now.

17:10:55Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb: What is the point of this line in loading retail os? ipod.c:451 entry = fw->addr + fw->entryOffset;
17:11:32amiconnAfaik, iPods have 96KB or 128KB depending on the CPU
17:13:01linuxstbPaul_The_Nerd: It calculates the entry point for retailos - "addr" is the load address, and "entry offset" is the offset of the entry point within the image. fw->addr is normally 0x10000000 and fw->entryOffset is normally 0.
17:13:28linuxstbamiconn: Yes, PP5020 has 96KB, PP5021 (used in Nano and Video) has 128KB.

17:47:26linuxstbamiconn: What about arm-elf-gcc? :(
17:48:01amiconnAsk LinusN, he provided these packages. See wiki
17:48:05linuxstbAh, I guess that's why Linus was asking about compiling arm-gcc earlier.
17:48:15Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb: Hehehe. padding == fw->devOffset which is why I asked. Heh.
17:48:50linuxstbYes, but going back to the original ipodlinux bootloader code, padding should be 0x4600 for the 4g and later ipods...
17:49:55Paul_The_NerdIt's 0x4400 here
17:50:12linuxstbYes, it's 0x4400 in CVS
17:50:20linuxstbAnd devOffset is 0x4400...
17:50:27Paul_The_NerdYup
17:51:13linuxstbWhich doesn't make sense to me - the actual firmware starts at offset 0x200 in my retailos image. So just try changing that memmove to be memmove16(fw->addr, fw->addr + 0x200, fw->len)
17:51:22Paul_The_NerdOk
17:52:29Paul_The_NerdUm, shouldn't that be loadbuffer + 0x200? (Just making sure...)
17:52:36linuxstbYes, just about to say that...
17:54:08Paul_The_NerdHrm
17:54:20Paul_The_NerdThat causes it to reboot, load the bootloader again normally, and go into rockbox.
17:55:02Paul_The_NerdWait.
17:55:17Paul_The_NerdIf padding should be 0x4600, and devOffset should be 0x4400, it should be -0x200 no?
17:55:37Paul_The_NerdAt least, judging from the math that was applied before.
17:55:45mirakhello
17:55:53Paul_The_NerdThat's weird.

18:00
18:00:53Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb: But, looking at Apple_OS.bin the first non-0x00 value after the header is at 0x200
18:01:38linuxstbYes, which is why I think we need to add 0x200 to the loadbuffer. Those first instructions at 0x200 are the arm exception vectors.
18:03:09Paul_The_NerdWell, I tried it with 0x200 added, and it seemed to just reboot the bootloader.

19:33:16Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb: Are you 100% sure you created the bootloader for your color with dummy.bin rather than apple_os.bin?
19:34:40linuxstbYes - it boots about 4-5 seconds quicker with dummy.bin.
19:34:46Paul_The_NerdHrm
19:35:50Rob2222what is in dummy.bin?
19:36:03 Join linuxstb_ [0] (n=linuxstb@i-83-67-212-170.freedom2surf.net)
19:36:21Paul_The_NerdBecause if I create the bootloader with apple_os, it goes into retail properly, which leads me to assume that it's still using the entry point in boot_table to start, rather than in loadbuffer.
19:37:17Paul_The_NerdWhich, if my understanding is okay, makes sense, because rockbox is at 0x4600 with the bootloader/dummy file, and apple_os is at 0x4600 in the apple_os/bootloader version, and in the first the code causes bootloader to be rerun, and in the latter, apple_os gets launched.
19:37:22*Paul_The_Nerd could be seeing this all wrong.
19:38:39Paul_The_NerdSo, I'm guessing that the memmove16()'s results get overwritten at some point (while the apple logo is displayed, I guess?)

19:41:34linuxstb_Paul_The_Nerd: As a test, you could try creating a "dummy.bin" exactly the same size as the apple firmware. Also, are you using "-l" (ell) with ipod_fw, and not -i ?
19:42:46linuxstb_dummy.bin is just there to keep ipod_fw happy - if we can get this to work, we can change ipod_fw so that it just creates a firmware partition containing Rockbox and nothing else.
19:43:40Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb_: Apparently I hadn't been

19:44:07linuxstb_I don't _think_ it matters.
19:44:13Paul_The_NerdWith -l it works

19:44:41linuxstb_And RetailOS works?
19:44:44Paul_The_NerdYessir
19:45:09linuxstb_Does it make any noticable difference to the bootup time when starting Rockbox?
19:45:44linuxstb_It means the apple bootloader doesn't copy a 5.5MB firmware image to RAM that we don't need.
19:46:49Paul_The_NerdOn a hard reboot it displays the apple logo for a much shorter time, yes.

19:49:14preglow5.5 meg firmware image???
19:49:21linuxstb_Yes, I think it's the same as your version. I'll need to do some more tests. The video is different because the apple firmware is in two parts - the normal retailos, and then another firmware that runs on the broadcom chip.

19:52:11lamedHi, Guys, It should be a stupid question to ask whether I should edit the wikimanual for inserting the new functions that rockbox now contains and remove some that we no longer have, right? (they might not make it to the release)
19:52:50Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb_: Yes

21:46:52amiconnUbuntu even installs a gcc that doesn't match the kernel

22:49:39seffyand 24bit wps take more bat power ?
22:49:57Bagderseffy: no
22:50:02Paul_The_NerdAlso, are the keymappings for ipods slightly different?
22:50:14RotAtoRPaul_The_Nerd: because before it would noticably change as the cpu boosted during music playback
22:50:16Bagderand they aren't 24bit
22:50:31Paul_The_NerdRotAtoR: Well, I can't yet test it with music playback. ;-)

22:51:03seffywhy they are not 24bit ?!...it wrote in the optimized version..

22:51:53seffyok...and no one can "improve" it ?
22:51:59RotAtoRamiconn: hmm, ok, i'm not sure why it's like that :)
22:52:01*amiconn finally managed to understand how sw raid and lvm work together in linux

22:52:53seffycuz...how the picrures looks so good in the iriver fd(on Picture mode) ?
22:53:24Bagderhow can you shorten firmware to "fd" ?

22:53:56RotAtoRare the ifp7xx and x5 ports in any state where I should be looking to have bejeweled fully support them?
22:54:06linuxstb__RotAtoR: My intention was that mono bitmaps should also go in the "native" directory. The mono directory is for bitmaps that are mono on all displays.
22:54:13BagderRotAtoR: the x5 sim builds and runs fine
22:54:14preglowRotAtoR: not urgent, if you ask me
22:54:24Bagderbut the port is still far away
22:54:25Paul_The_NerdBagder: The x5sim doesn't build here.
22:54:41linuxstb__RotAtoR: This keeps all the "same" bitmaps together.
22:54:48BagderPaul_The_Nerd: no?
22:54:53Paul_The_NerdWell, it didn't two days ago
22:54:59Paul_The_NerdNope
22:55:01BagderI fixed it about 2 days ago
22:55:10Bagderjust after the bmp build commit
22:55:11Paul_The_NerdJust tried again with a new build dir
22:55:12RotAtoRlinuxstb__: ok, so will the mono bitmaps be converted as mono then?
22:55:18RotAtoRand not native?
22:55:20Paul_The_NerdDoes it require that I build it in SDL mode?
22:55:31amiconnRotAtoR: Did you try 4-grey bitmaps on H1x0?
22:55:36linuxstb__RotAtoR: "native" and "mono" means the same thing for Archos.
22:55:39BagderPaul_The_Nerd: I only tried sdl mode since I'm on linux and the x11 doesn't do colors
22:55:51RotAtoRlinuxstb__: but not on the h1xx, i use mono on them
22:55:52PapricaRotAtoR, work good with the h300
22:56:04Paul_The_NerdBagder: Ah, well the Win32 version won't build. And SDL sims still don't build in cygwin as far as I can tell
22:56:17Bagderaha
22:56:32Bagderwell, I hope someone fixes those issues one of these days
22:56:43Paul_The_NerdSo, it's not so much that the x5 sim doesn't build, is that I cannot reach the conditions under which it will build.
22:56:54RotAtoRright now i'm planning on using mono on all non-color lcds so I don't have to have the ugliness of the jewel backgrounds overlapping eachother
22:57:01seffyBagder: sorry i want to say fw*....
22:57:31preglowlinuxstb__: do we ever use current_tick in the bootloader?
22:57:37preglowlinuxstb__: just wondering why we need to fake it
22:57:40linuxstb__Yes, but it's the "fake one".
22:57:50linuxstb__The ATA driver uses it.
22:58:13amiconnRotAtoR: Real alpha blending is most probably slowdown hell, but masking should be possible
22:58:19NightCatWhy make rebuild bitmaps only after make clean?
22:58:32RotAtoRamiconn: yes, masking is all I'd really want

22:58:46*amiconn is planning a function that takes both a mono and a native bitmap

22:58:54 Nick San is now known as [San] (n=test@A-103-228.cust.iol.ie)
22:59:04RotAtoRamiconn: nice :)
22:59:23amiconnMasking is basically drawing a mono bitmap just with the native bitmap being the 'foreground colour'
22:59:24preglowRotAtoR: btw, does bejeweled speed depend on cpu clock now?
22:59:53RotAtoRpreglow: right now i have it boosting during animations so they're consistent
23:00
23:00:28preglowRotAtoR: wouldn't it be better to use a max fps and frame skipping?
23:00:30amiconnThat won't happen before my optimisation work though

23:11:42RotAtoRhehe
23:11:46linuxstb__Thanks. Don't forget there is the same bug in apps/Makefile as well.
23:11:55NightCatWhen I rebuilt all to sim (win for iriver 3xx) and start sudoku, it does not work...
23:12:29linuxstb__NightCat: That could be the same problem I had with the sdl sim. Let me check.
23:12:44NightCatIt works but there is no pictures displayed on the game field...
23:12:47amiconnIt's still a 'funny' error message - obviously make is trying to build the .bmp if it's not there...
23:12:50preglowlinuxstb__: so ata driver depends a lot of current_tick being updated accurately, then? :>
23:13:30NightCatlinuxstb__: Sudoku uses lcd_bitmap_part!!!
23:13:42linuxstb__I think it's just used for timeouts - so it doesn't have to be perfect I think.

23:55:30NightCatlinuxstb__: Please, let me know when you solve the lcd_bitmap_part problem (cause I use it too)... OK?
23:55:37linuxstb__I think there's a typo in the start of your patch though - you've written "build-" instead of build-bitmaps.
23:55:55linuxstb__NightCat: I'm not sure what your problem is. Sudoku works fine for me.
23:56:01Bagderoops
23:56:08NightCatOn wich target?
23:56:27linuxstb__ipod - which uses the same lcd code as the h300
23:56:57linuxstb__Are you saying Sudoku doesn't work on the h300?
23:57:58NightCatlinuxstb__: Yes and on sim...
23:58:04linuxstb__No, you're right. Sudoku's broken... My bad.
23:58:51NightCatYes, I knew it I knew it :)
