00:35:54baobab68so i was thinking, do you think there's any chance Apple will come after the Rockbox project, for opening up its close little platform?
00:36:03baobab68close=closed
00:36:13linuxstbipodlinux opened up their platform.

00:36:32baobab68to play OGGs and FLACs etc?
00:36:46baobab68that was in IPL already?
00:37:10linuxstbYes.
00:37:15Paul_The_NerdTheir platform is the iTunes<->iPod bond anyway
00:37:39Paul_The_NerdUnless our software magically allows the iPod to work with other DRM, or a non-iPod player to work with iTunes DRM, they probably won't care anyway.
00:38:00Paul_The_NerdAnd since neither of those are exactly planned...
00:38:19 Quit petur ("here today, gone tomorrow")
00:38:25baobab68i guess, cos you can already put non-drm'd mp3s on there
00:38:38Paul_The_NerdYep
00:38:52baobab68i just would hate to see RB get stomped.
00:38:56Paul_The_NerdAnd, arguably it could bring them business.
00:39:18baobab68and arguably ipod users won't be beating down RB's door anyway...
00:39:40Paul_The_NerdI mean, there are people out there with discontinued players running rockbox, and suddenly there's a viable mass-market player to replace it when it dies that lets them carry over everything they're used to having.
00:40:25Paul_The_NerdYeah, I'm wondering if it'll mirror the mistic river response, or if they'll be much less interested in it.
00:40:28baobab68exactly. my sister is saving to buy an iRiver H340 and supplied are drying up. so now she has the option of an iPod, which will definitely be available in the long term
00:41:34baobab68did linus have any luck sourcing another H3xx by the way?
00:42:27Paul_The_NerdDunno
00:43:00baobab68a few still available in Australia if the search is still on.
00:43:17baobab68We bought two on Saturday.
00:43:44muesli__that really suxx...now we have such a decent os and its players are dying out
00:43:58muesli__i pray mine will survive as long as possible
00:44:10baobab68mine is so-o-o pampered. :-)
00:44:31muesli__:-)
00:44:43Paul_The_NerdYeah, I get nervous any time my h120 acts even slightly irregular
00:45:13baobab68even when i'm listening while sleeping it lives in the bedside drawer rather than risk it falling off the bed.

00:47:00muesli__indeed
00:47:07baobab68at least used ipods aren't rare. i would totally consider it now that rb runs on it. great job linuxstb and preglow!
00:47:40muesli__but those have crappy sound quality :p
00:48:04muesli__at least this is what i read everywhere
00:48:07ModernExecutivemuesli, is there any objective proof of that?
00:48:12baobab68i've only listened to one for like 30 seconds.
00:48:32baobab68and maybe it's the apple firmware that makes it sound bad?
00:48:36ModernExecutivei've heard that around MR, and other places on the internet, but I can't find anyone to prove it
00:48:37muesli__ModernExecutive as i said, everywhere
00:48:39baobab68rb will sound better?!
00:49:12baobab68subjectively to me, iRiver sounded better than iPod in my very brief experience
00:49:14muesli__ModernExecutive i know i guy who could test x5 ipod and irivers
00:49:38muesli__and iriver performed pretty well
00:51:15baobab68i've had a brief look through irc logs but haven't found concrete answers - what exactly are the causes of shorter battery life on iRiver under RB?
00:51:39baobab68hard drive spinups? codec optimisation? processor / chipset sleep levels?
00:51:41Paul_The_NerdLack of any attempt to optimize them, mainly.
00:51:50LinusNbaobab68: rockbox has better battery life than the stock firmware on the h100 series
00:51:51Paul_The_NerdIt's not really been looking into much yet.
00:52:31baobab68Linus - yes, noted. Sorry to generalise.
00:52:31Paul_The_NerdI remember they were theorizing that it had to do with the LCD updates for the color screen, but then tests ended up showing that wasn't the majority of it.
00:52:39LinusNi think there is a bad hardware setup somewhere
00:52:46Paul_The_NerdIt was still boosting a significant amount more
00:52:57baobab68as in some chip that's not initialised the way it should be?
00:53:00LinusNyes
00:53:28baobab68i note that with the recent optimisations of tremor, I can subjectively see the CPU not boosting quite as much. tremor is OGG, right?
00:53:35LinusNyes
00:54:03BgerLinusN but on H100 RB drains the battery more than iriver fw ...
00:54:05baobab68LinusN: since you're there, did u get a line on a new H3xx?
00:54:09Bgersame on h300 ...
00:54:36preglowthere's still some stuff to be done for tremor
00:54:46preglowbut the fact that it is memory hungry is a bit of a showstopper
00:54:59LinusNBger: are you sure? i've heard reports about better battery life than the stock fw on h100...
00:55:21LinusNbaobab68: i have a few leads, but no cigar yet
00:55:23baobab68i thought Bger meant it drains it down to a lower level before shutoff.
00:55:34LinusNah, yes
00:55:44Bgerbaobab68 exactly
00:55:57baobab68all the h1xx ppl over at MR say that they get better batt life.
00:56:01Bgerso i don't think it's correct to say "better battery life"
00:56:26baobab68longer run time before flatness. shorter lifetime of battery?
00:57:13Bgermaybe
00:57:16lostlogichmm, why would gcc not cache pcmbuf_read->size in a register on these two lines?
00:57:19lostlogic pcmbuf_unplayed_bytes -= pcmbuf_read->size;
00:57:20muesli__u get pretty cheap ones @ebay
00:57:20ModernExecutivelinus, any progress on an alternate us+bl firmware?
00:57:22lostlogic audiobuffer_free += pcmbuf_read->size;
00:57:27LinusNthe h300 has a lot more work to do to update the lcd, especially with all those bitmap wps

00:58:40baobab68linusn thanks for your work on the WPS stuff. now if the background of text could just be transparent...
00:58:47LinusNhowever, i have another optimizing idea
00:59:14LinusNthe wps doesn't have to update the framebuffer at all when the lcd is off
00:59:29amiconnIt has to
00:59:31baobab68meaning?
00:59:37LinusNprovided that it redraws the whole shebang when the screen is turned on
00:59:51baobab68ok
01:00
01:00:31amiconnLinusN: This would perhaps save a bit of energy, but then the screen would have to know whether the lcd is on or off
01:00:42amiconnThe wps screen I mean
01:01:02LinusNyes, but that info can be made available
01:01:11amiconnWe can't just ignore framebuffer updates during lcd off periods
01:01:39LinusNthe wps can

02:14:26preglowi've had it happen in both linux and windows, but it happens the most often in linux
02:14:34amiconnpreglow: That's strange.
02:14:44Mooslostlogic: do you think is an accurate way to measure? I know there isn't a lot of choise but...
02:15:04amiconnI never observed such behaviour in windows, with no single device
02:15:23lostlogicMoos: it's close enough to roughly say "it's close" or if there is a large change on the same file "it changed (better or worse)"
02:15:57Paul_The_Nerdlostlogic: The noise on HD reads aren't consistent, but FLAC playback is funky now in general. As well, next track transitions using the "next" button result in a second or two of the next track, 1 second of the previous track, *then* proper playback
02:16:17Paul_The_NerdActually, the funkiness in the flac seems to have just been at the beginning of the track. =/

02:17:36lostlogicok, I just cvs updated and now my player consistently crashes in gwps-common.c:wps_draw_image
02:17:55Paul_The_Nerdlostlogic: Switch to rockbox_default WPS, for the time being
02:17:55MoosLinusN changes
02:18:01lostlogicPaul_The_Nerd: I did
02:18:02lostlogic:(
02:18:26amiconnpreglow: Btw, now my linux box is running well.
02:18:44Paul_The_NerdAnd, I'm not sure the difference between digital and analog noise. It sounds like very very fast ticks of high frequency random noise, maybe.
02:18:52Paul_The_NerdLike, fractions of a second.
02:19:13preglowamiconn: so, what did you do?
02:19:49Paul_The_Nerdlostlogic: Though, other times I would swear it just sounds like playback halts for that time. They're very short, so it's hard to tell.
02:19:55MoosPaul_The_Nerd: there was one noise at skip track before too, but it seems Slasheri fixed this few days ago
02:20:23amiconnInstalled debian unstable. Then gnome refused to install. Needed some back & forth fiddling with the package sources, after that I was able to install gnome
02:20:29JdGordonlostlogic: i cant decide if the song sounds different or not... there was a tiny bit of distortion during the track
02:20:32Mooslostlogic: maybe you resucite the glitch that was here
02:20:41amiconnIt took some further experiments to get sound running, but now it does work
02:20:44lostlogicMoos: it's quite possible
02:21:02JdGordonhahah skipping tracks quickly starts [playing the prev track for a sec
02:21:07lostlogicbut right now I can't play music with Linus's changes, so I think I'm going to explode instead.
02:21:15lostlogicJdGordon: yeah, so paul said
02:21:16Mooslostlogic: maybe take a look at the CVS commit of Slasheri fixed things
02:21:32*amiconn is playing music with rhythmbox via USB off an MMC inserted into the Ondio
02:21:37lostlogicMoos: his fix is still present

02:22:01preglownow, this is incredibly annoying
02:22:06lostlogicMoos: my changes are very large though so the same fix is unlikely to apply
02:22:15preglowi was looking forward to commiting then going to bed

02:23:34Paul_The_Nerdlostlogic: I just reproduced what JDGordon just reported. :-P
02:23:50Moospreglow: will you commit the "basis" of your eq?
02:24:06lostlogicanything special about the buffer status when you gusy get it to freeze? Is it reading disk when you hit skip?
02:24:19amiconnugh
02:24:24Paul_The_NerdI'm fairly certain it was *about* to be.
02:24:31*amiconn spots da slowness in cvs
02:24:33Paul_The_NerdThe light had not come on, but the buffer should've been nearly empty
02:25:01JdGordonlostlogic: the ide status bar icon thingy came on
02:25:02JdGordonthen crash

02:25:39preglowMoos: when i get it working again...
02:25:46lostlogicyay, usefulness :)
02:25:47JdGordonaand again, without shuffle on
02:25:50amiconnUsing array subscripting in an inner loop....
02:25:53Moospreglow: hehe :)
02:26:01lostlogicyeah, it has to do with buffer status, not shuffle status was my guess
02:26:07preglowamiconn: where?
02:26:27preglowamiconn: do you mean as opposed to using pointers?
02:26:30amiconnI was looking at Linus' latest commit
02:26:34amiconnyes
02:26:44JdGordonoh, playback is being filled with little pops and stuff while the disk is spinning
02:26:48preglowamiconn: actually, using indexed arrays is recommended by compiler makers
02:26:55amiconnUh?
02:27:01Paul_The_Nerdlostlogic: Just running music alongside bejeweled, without pressing any buttons, I get a *lot* of the sound glitches I was talking about.
02:27:18preglowamiconn: it optimises indexed array use the same as incrementing pointers anyway
02:27:21amiconnEverytime I checked the generated assembly, using array subscripts generated slower code
02:27:25Paul_The_NerdIt sounds like samples are getting mixed up, or something.
02:27:34preglowamiconn: and when you use an indexed array, the compiler knows there is no aliasing
02:27:56lostlogicPaul_The_Nerd: hmm, as soon as I get playign again, I'll try that.
02:28:15preglowin that case gcc is doing a poor job
02:28:20preglowas is too often the case these days
02:29:02JdGordonyup, u got buffer problems...
02:29:03aliaskHrm... I'm getting lovely IllInstr's when trying to play music.
02:29:04amiconnI don't trust gcc for time critical things
02:29:21preglownor should you
02:29:26Paul_The_Nerdlostlogic: It's any time the cpu boosts.
02:29:30Paul_The_NerdBacklight fading did it too.
02:29:31preglowgcc isn't that good for anything but x86 and powerpc
02:29:39amiconnEfficiency of gcc generated code varies a hell of a lot
02:29:44Paul_The_NerdI can only *consistently* get it to happen in flac so far.
02:30:18lostlogicPaul_The_Nerd: ok, that at least gives me something to go on
02:30:19Paul_The_Nerdaliask: Try loading the rockbox_default theme. If you just updated, there's been some recent bugs introduced, possibly.
02:30:24preglowamiconn: i have seen gcc do stupid things like spill a register to stack even when it doesn't need the register, only to reload from stack later
02:30:36lostlogicaliask: H3x0 or H1x0?
02:30:42Paul_The_Nerdlostlogic: I'm doin' what I can. :)
02:30:48aliaskH3x0 with a brand spanking new CVS.
02:30:55aliaskI'm going to try the theme thingo.
02:30:56lostlogicaliask: I had to take out the latest changes that Linus put in in order to get playing again
02:31:20amiconnI've seem more fun things like * moving data from one register to another without reason. * reloading the same constant over and over
02:31:36 Quit matsl (Remote closed the connection)
02:31:47aliaskLoading the rockbox_default theme worked.
02:31:52aliaskSomething in the bitmap loading?
02:31:54lostlogicamiconn: yeah, saw lots of that when I was futzing with tremor
02:31:57lostlogicaliask: yes
02:32:09aliaskDamn, that's why I just upgraded :(
02:32:19 Quit Moos ("Good Night !")
02:32:32amiconnOh, and also loading constants from memory within a loop, when there were enough free registers to preload the constants
02:33:08amiconnI admit this was with -O, not -O2
02:33:35Paul_The_Nerdlostlogic: And I don't know how to use crossfade since I don't really like it, so my testing is with that disabled.
02:33:37lostlogicamiconn: sometimes saving registers makes sense, but GCC seems to be very register shy when it is unnecessary.
02:34:00lostlogicPaul_The_Nerd: nod, I just finally got that crackling noise thing you were talking about to happen... wouldn't happen on ogg, but happened on MP3
02:34:10lostlogicalmost seems like the faster codecs have it more
02:34:15Paul_The_NerdYeah
02:34:17Paul_The_NerdFLAC gets it BAD
02:34:24Paul_The_NerdMP3 gets it pretty minorly
02:34:28preglowamiconn: which reminds me, we should try using O2 for main rockbox on non-archos devices
02:34:32Paul_The_NerdSome of my mp3s don't even get it at all.
02:34:33amiconnlostlogic: Perhaps because x86 has so few registers? All our target archs have more registers
02:35:01lostlogicamiconn: hmm, I was actually wondering that... (I know nothing about x86)
02:35:15amiconn(all have 16 iirc)
02:35:19preglowif they have put x86 specific case in the frontend, they should be shot
02:35:29JdGordonwhat the heck is crossfeed?
02:35:52lostlogicpreglow: only x86 has -mregparm capability... for no good reason... so they seem to do stuff like that
02:35:57preglowhahahaha

02:36:07preglowregparm on an arch with about six registers
02:36:10amiconn-mregparm ?
02:36:26lostlogicamiconn: pass function arguments in scratch regs instead of on the stack
02:36:32amiconnAh, yes
02:36:39preglowamiconn: you know, what gcc _should_ have supported on m68k
02:36:44amiconnAfaik, this depends on the abi
02:36:48Paul_The_NerdJdGordon: Crossfeed is a filter to make music through headphones sound more "natural" aka like music heard from speakers. I'm not entirely sure how, I could give vague descriptions but I'd probably mangle it.
02:36:54amiconnSH1 does that
02:36:56preglowon x86 it depends on calling convention
02:36:59preglowarm does too
02:37:00JdGordonwoo.... crash if u fast forward in a track past the buffer (i tihnk...)
02:37:05preglowand m68k definitely has enough registers, but no
02:37:05lostlogicit breaks the ABI on x86, but they still do it
02:37:08preglowgcc doesn't even support it
02:37:21preglowlostlogic: it doesn't really, windows supports it
02:37:33preglowlostlogic: it's called fastcall calling convention

02:38:26amiconnm68k has rather few scratch registers
02:38:29lostlogicpreglow: no, I didn't pay attention to it, should have.

02:38:57Paul_The_Nerdts-x: Yup. It even happens on H120s now.
02:38:59preglowcould have used a couple of scratch regs more without me becoming angry, eys

02:52:41saratogaso thats something
02:53:27linuxstbThe 4g b/w and mini should be relatively easy after the LCD driver is written. The 4g b/w should just work, and the mini needs some minor changes I think. We just need some more devs with the older ipods.
02:54:04Paul_The_Nerd320kbps MP3s work fine.
02:54:14linuxstbIPL (and Rockbox) on the 5G have a relatively slow (but usable, at least in Rockbox) LCD driver, but no audio at all.

03:00:01saratogawow, has it always been that easy?
03:00:49linuxstbNo. LinusN set that up about a week ago.
03:01:06Paul_The_NerdThere was another cygwin package from somewhere else you could use

03:03:51webguest56what's the big problem that needs to be solved and where do I keep an eye on this issue to make sure I know when it happens?
03:04:47linuxstbThe big problem is not knowing how the audio hardware works on the 5g.

05:23:35Midgey34RoTaToR: revert the transparency changes fixes the h120 sim, it will probably fix it on target as well
05:24:29RotAtoRMidgey34: I've figured out what the problem is
05:24:35Midgey34oh good
05:25:15RotAtoRin gwps-common.c line 1255, it's using transparent_bitmap() for LCD_DEPTH>1
05:25:57RotAtoRh1xx has LCD_DEPTH=4 IIRC, but the bitmaps used for the WPS are mono, so the mono version of the call should be used
05:26:14Paul_The_NerdIs depth the number of colors, or bits?
05:26:20RotAtoRbits
05:26:24Paul_The_NerdThen h1xx = 2
05:26:30Paul_The_NerdRight?

05:29:43RotAtoRhum... on second thought it *appears* to be handling that bitmap drawing correctly there...
05:30:27RotAtoRi failed to glance up a few lines to see it's checking the format of the bitmap to see if it's mono
05:35:14RotAtoRhmm, it looks like that section is actually the problem though
05:35:39RotAtoRit's calling transparent_bitmap() even though the bitmap it actually mono
05:36:33RotAtoRperhaps the "FORMAT_MONO" flag for the bitmap isn't being set properly...

06:15:29Paul_The_Nerdimphasing: You do still need to modify the "hidden" partition for the purpose of installing the bootloader. But that's a one-time, very quick step, then updates just involve copying a file and a folder over to the device.
06:16:27BHSPitLappybah, how long has he been in here :P
06:16:32imphasingSo how did you find the entry point that the flash bootloader jumps into? You just looked at the ipodlinux bootloader I suppose.
06:16:38imphasingNo sense in reinventing the wheel.
06:17:12Paul_The_NerdI imagine that's what they did, yes.
06:17:50Paul_The_NerdIt may even be possible to load the Retail OS from the Fat32 partition, and significantly shrink the size of the hidden one.
06:17:53imphasingInteresting, the bootloader is actually rockbox, with LCD, button and ATA drivers..
06:18:01imphasingAh, cool.
06:18:35Paul_The_NerdIt'll load, but it locks up when you try to connect USB, or play any audio. =/
06:19:15BHSPitLappyon what?

06:19:28BHSPitLappyoh

06:19:49BHSPitLappyyeah, I finally made the connection between messages :P
06:19:51Paul_The_Nerdimphasing: Right now, upon inserting the USB cable, it reboots into Disk Mode
06:19:55imphasingWhen someone figures it out though, both ipodlinux and rockbox will be able to benefit.
06:20:02imphasingYeah, that's what ipodlinux does as well.
06:21:43Paul_The_NerdWith the convenience of that, it may be a while before someone really tackles USB.
06:22:08imphasingTrue.
06:22:49Midgey34lostlogic, RoTaToR: does the new fix allow transparency on color targets still?
06:23:19imphasingIt's handy that both devices (ipod and iriver) both have the same processor. It's possible the two projects could corroborate with each other, and be one big happy bundle of success.
06:23:27lostlogicMidgey34: in theory it should work right... I don't know much about it, I just wanted my player to stop crashing if I was running CVS :)
06:23:33Midgey34alright
06:23:35RotAtoRMidgey34: yes, it doesn't interfere with that
06:24:18RotAtoRin theory, as lostlogic says, i don't know how it worked before
06:24:25Paul_The_Nerdimphasing: The irivers don't have the same processor.
06:24:35imphasingPaul_The_Nerd: Yeah, I realize that now.

06:25:06imphasingI was actually talking about the ARMTDMI
06:25:15imphasingnot the physical chip.
06:25:24imphasingI think they both use that ARM..
06:25:26Paul_The_NerdThe iFP7xx series use an ARM based processor though, so some of the non-driver related optimizations and stuff can carry over.
06:25:47Paul_The_NerdThe h1x0/3x0 are m68k
06:25:48imphasingAh, the PNX0101 uses the ARM7TDMI
06:25:53imphasingah, ok.
06:28:41lostlogicPaul_The_Nerd: hmph, I can break it going forward in about the same way...
06:29:13Paul_The_Nerdlostlogic: So, it relates to refilling the buffer, or clearing it?
06:29:42lostlogicPaul_The_Nerd: I think it happens when the buffer is being filled, and a manual skip would skip to a song that is not yet in the buffer.

06:32:45modamultiband eq?
06:33:50Paul_The_NerdThat question lacks verbs.
06:33:56Midgey34equalizers
06:34:05modahow does it work? menus and such?>
06:34:29Midgey34I don't believe theres a way to use them yet, no GUI has been written
06:34:48modawha?
06:34:58 Quit ts-x ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
06:35:00Paul_The_NerdThe math is there.
06:35:06Paul_The_NerdThe code, etc.
06:35:12Paul_The_NerdBut there's no way to interact with it yet.
06:35:27modaso why hasnt anyone written one yet?
06:35:32modait cant be that hard
06:36:05MembrilloIts averagely hard, but it still requires time
06:36:07Paul_The_NerdWell, for one thing, the actual equalizer code was finished fairly recently
06:36:18modayea
06:36:19Paul_The_NerdAnother, the actual design of the interface has to be decided on.
06:36:33Membrilloeven easy code takes time
06:36:51modai reckon it should be like the winamp eq is like
06:36:57Paul_The_NerdAnd, generally speaking, a lot of people are already working on something.
06:38:24Membrilloi don't think it has to be graphical
06:38:26Midgey34I think the aim is to make it like the karma's
06:38:34Membrilloslidebars or anything
06:39:07Paul_The_NerdWhat's the karma's like?
06:39:53Midgey34someone posted a link in yesterday's log I think
06:40:45Midgey34http://www.dapreview.net/gallery/displayimage.php?album=65&pos=33
06:41:58RotAtoRa better is forward a few in the gallery: http://www.dapreview.net/gallery/displayimage.php?album=65&pos=39
06:42:02Paul_The_NerdI think I'd be happy just having one field that lets me pick a band, and then another field that lets me adjust the value.
06:42:07Paul_The_NerdI'm not sure it has to be graphical.
06:42:58Membrilloyeah, the graphical slidebars are just knick knacks. not really needed at the moment
06:43:31Membrillodo you think RB would end up have preset EQs?
06:43:33Midgey34true, but rockbox code always use some pretty interfaces
06:43:36Paul_The_NerdThough the ability to save to, and load from, files would be welcome.
06:43:50Membrillosaving and loading is a necessity
06:44:41Paul_The_NerdAnd, *maybe* once the TagDB is in, the ability to save EQ presets for a specific song, alongside rating and other things, but that's somewhat forward looking, and hopeful.

10:40:55ashridahi agree, the ipod port is still highly experimental
10:41:04fairwayjust want to try it out
10:41:06ashridahand currently the ipod port won't play sound right now anyway

10:46:16ashridahRob-: there probably is, inside the wiki
10:46:31fairwayI want it now :)
10:46:36BHSPitLappyashridah: what unit?
10:46:56ashridahfor the ipod
10:47:00BHSPitLappyfairway: very nice thinking
10:47:05BHSPitLappyashridah: can't brick those :D
10:47:09ashridahfairway: well, there's probably information about it in the wiki
10:47:18fairwayIll echeck
10:47:36ashridahand there may well already be binaries in the daily build page
10:48:04BgerRob- what about the memory management in plugins ?
10:48:36Bgerashridah the iPod port is maybe the one of the few rb ports that just CAN NOT brick the unite

10:49:19amiconnAs long as you don't flash, you simply can't break an archos
10:49:34Bgeramiconn okay, but u can't flash iPods for now :)
10:49:41ashridahbut that said, if you replace the boot image on the ipod, can you still get into usb mode to replace it?
10:49:46BHSPitLappyI can use a hammer without flashing.
10:49:48Bgerashridah yep
10:50:03BHSPitLappyashridah: you could format the hdd if you want
10:50:13BHSPitLappytake it out
10:50:24BHSPitLappysoak it in brine
10:50:32BHSPitLappy(just don't put it back in)
10:50:34amiconnEven with flashing you can recover most archoses with relatively simple hw mod
10:50:36Bgerashridah there is a flash USB mode
10:50:43ashridahaah
10:50:50JdGordondoes the ipod port use the stupid retarted file obfuscating filesystem like the ipod fw?
10:51:03BHSPitLappyhuh?
10:51:10JdGordonrandom file names
10:51:13BHSPitLappythe filesystem is FAT32
10:51:34BHSPitLappyJdGordon: there's no itunesdb parsing, so... I guess the answer to your question is no
10:51:46ashridahso, who's going to modify the daily build page to add ipod as a daily build link?
10:51:58JdGordonthat will make a few ppl i know happy

10:55:40philpemhow easy is it to port rockbox to new hardware? i'm designing a coldfire-based audio player (Freescale SCF5250AG CPU, samsung TFT-LCD, not sure which codec yet) and i'd like to port rockbox to it.. when i eventually build it that is :)
10:56:11BHSPitLappyphilpem: you commercial?
10:56:14LinusNit's pretty easy to port

10:56:40BHSPitLappyah...
10:56:46amiconnBHSPitLappy, ashridah: You can even download iPod bleeding edge builds if you know how to compose the link :)
10:56:49LinusNthe hard part of each rockbox port has been the reverse engineering, apart from the software codec optimizing
10:57:06BHSPitLappyamiconn: how long have they been in production?
10:57:08philpemjust need to decide on a codec, talk the manufacturer into selling me a few, then work out how much RAM I need and how fast the CPU needs to run
10:57:19*fairway would like to test the new rockboot.bin for the ipod photo

11:03:16Rob-ok, thanks.
11:03:19philpemjust upgraded my laptop so I've got a 10gig travelstar spare, and someone gave me a samsung E800 that met an untimely end at the wheels of his car. the lcd was fine, so i desoldered it :)
11:04:04Bgerphilpem ah :)
11:04:05philpemalso got a few lithium-ion packs lying around that i can use for power. 4 amp-hours of juice in a 1" by 3" lump :)
11:04:56philpemfreescale gave me some cpu chips, and i'm working on talking the local wolfson disti into selling me two or three codecs. that just leaves RAM and flash, which should run about £20, and a BDM pod (another £15 if that)
11:06:05philpemthe hardest part is going to be getting the damned thing to boot from cold. once it's got a bootloader flashed in, uploading new firmware should just be a case of copying a new fwfile onto the hard drive
11:06:40philpemmicrochip have released a rather nice "usb storage with a PIC and a compactflash card" appnote - I've got the picmicro development gear, so that's even easier to deal with
11:07:01BHSPitLappythe only challenge i can see is a snazzy case
11:07:23philpemBHSPitLappy: plenty of bricked ipods on ebay <grin>
11:07:46philpem"oh noes! i dropped my ipod and now it is teh broken! whatever will i do - i know! ebay!"
11:08:02BHSPitLappyheh
11:08:10BHSPitLappyare they for teh cheap?
11:08:16philpemnot sure.
11:08:37philpembut in the worst case, i should be able to get one of those black teko "soapbox" cases for not very much money.
11:08:56aliaskfrom what i've seen, bricked players aren't as cheap as you might think.
11:09:50philpemeven so, plastic cases aren't expensive. i don't care if it looks like it's been dragged through a hedge backwards - if it plays oggs and records to HD without DRM, it's fine.
11:10:50philpemmy minidisc won't even let me copy recordings off digitally. ergo, it gets replaced.
11:10:57BgerBHSPitLappy in my eyes the biggest problems are 1) to make the design 2) to solder it 3) to write the bootloader
11:11:37ashridahwell. as far as booting it, rockbox *does* have a bootloader in CVS, that's used with the m68k cpus in the iriver platform. you might be able to draw on that, replace the assembly, and implant that into an eeprom for a basic bootloader.
11:11:52*philpem brb...
11:11:59ashridahif you've got an eeprom flasher handy, that'd be an excellent starting point, then just load the real player from the hd
11:12:00BHSPitLappyBger: why aim that message at me?
11:12:24ashridahBHSPitLappy: because your view of the biggest problem is a snazzy case
11:12:32BgerBHSPitLappy because u said "the only challenge i see is a snazzy case"

11:30:35philpemlike i said, the plan of action is: 1) get some codecs, 2) build a bdm pod, 3) build a quick-n-simple test board, 4) make sure BDM and IDE work on the test board (so i can reflash the firmware if I brick it 8^) ), 5) get the audio amps working, 6) get a "final" board made, 7) port rockbox
11:31:28philpemi do not enjoy desoldering tssops, plonking them in my flashwriter then resoldering them. if the coldfire can do it over BDM, then so be it. learning GDB is going to be "fun" though :)

12:13:53linuxstbNo - the bootloader-color.bin hasn't changed for a few weeks. It's unlikely to change in the near future either.
12:14:02fairwayi see
12:14:08fairwayall i get is

12:14:13fairwayrockbox error -1
12:14:29linuxstbThat's probably because you haven't installed Rockbox itself.
12:14:38linuxstbDoes it start the Apple firmware?

12:14:44fairwaywhere is rockbox itself?

13:14:16needleboywe thought about that, but no one knew how to implement

13:17:23Membrillowhat do you mean by the http headers being correct? nope, i cant get a specific error. just that the file at that URL has a filesize of 0 (it doesnt exist\cant be found or connected to)

14:25:26Membrilloi suggested the Vision:M and he said "that looks great! whats the price."
14:25:44needleboyhow about an ipod then?

14:29:25needleboythey got 60GB
14:29:31needleboydunno about sound

14:35:11needleboywe added a new tag for that
14:35:32aliaskYeah, I'm using the optimised build.

14:52:11dufuSwhy?
14:52:21preglowbecause it makes stuff simpler for us
14:52:24needleboybecause that's what the ROCKbox devs decided
14:52:27Membrillo0dB is the standard volume. then its made softer digitally if you reduce it

14:52:29ashridahneedleboy: on the iriver, yes. on other platforms there's a higher rating
14:52:42aliaskBecause any alteration of the volume is actually a reduction of a default volume.

15:13:49[San]i update it between 9-10pm GMT
15:14:04needleboyso i can just ignore them... or keep providing only new ones?
15:14:07needleboywhat do you say?
15:14:39[San]i dont mind
15:15:02needleboyi was looking for an opinion :)

15:16:41preglowyou get some stereo imagining and other stuff

15:17:05needleboypreglow, it's still useless...
15:17:17needleboyeven on the crappiest of all headphones... let alone good ones
15:17:25muesli__never used srs or wow
15:17:49muesli__customized stuff is the only thing that matters
15:17:53needleboyyou lose about 25% of all audible material as far as i can hear, and my hearing kicks major ass
15:18:28preglowSlasheri: what do you do to ensure the cache is correct?
15:19:08Slasheripreglow: simple filename check.. if any filename/order mismatch, ignore and rebuild the cache
15:19:11 Join ender` [0] (i=ychat@84.52.165.220)
15:19:17Slasherihmm, but that might not be always enough
15:19:25preglowSlasheri: then i think this is bad idea
15:19:47Slasherithe cache is really simple..
15:19:54needleboySlasheri, how about file header?
15:20:01needleboydo BMPs have them even?
15:20:10preglowif people unzips a new wps, i don't want to tell them they have to delete some hidden cache file to use it
15:20:22dufuShey is it only me or the rockbox volume is higher than the original?
15:20:31preglowdufuS: probably for eu version
15:20:33Slasheripreglow: they don't need to, if the new wps is not excactly the same as the previous one
15:20:36dufuSyes
15:20:39dufuSi have eu
15:20:46preglowSlasheri: what about a pure bitmap update?
15:21:12Slasheripreglow: that is something it doesn't handle correctly at the moment..
15:21:19preglowSlasheri: exactly, which is why i think it is a bad idea
15:21:34preglowif caching is ever to be used anywhere, it needs to be foolproof
15:21:39preglowusers don't understand cachingh
15:22:13Slasheriyes, true.. i will think ways to fix that. Or then we could just combine the bitmaps to a single file to avoid too complex caching
15:23:02preglowi think the last is the best
15:23:05needleboySlasheri, how about checking timestamp, headers?
15:23:16preglowthat'll be slow
15:23:20preglowjust as slow as an open()
15:23:23dufuSis it only me or the latest version of the optimized h300 is working fastert and smoother
15:23:31preglowSlasheri: the last approach would also not waste so much space due to cluster size
15:23:34dufuSfaster*
15:23:35needleboyit's not just you...
15:23:43linuxstbCould we load the WPS in the background?
15:23:56preglowSlasheri: but yeah, my point is pretty much that you can't do reliable caching on wps bitmaps, not unless someone introduces a revision number in the wps file or something
15:23:57Slasherineedleboy: yes, that is possible but it adds complexity to the simple caching
15:24:17linuxstbI agree with preglow that a cache is overkill - we try should find a simpler solution.
15:24:29Slasherilinuxstb: probably yes, but that wouldn't help much if we have "auto start playback" enabled
15:24:46Slasheriyep, probably amiconn could apply the combined bitmaps patch..
15:25:00preglowyep, but then we need a massive wps fix session :)
15:25:07Slasheritrue :)
15:25:21preglowi don't know how wps makers will react to that change
15:25:50preglowbut it should be done
15:25:59preglowa zillion bmp files is just ugly and inelegant
15:26:05needleboyexplain "combined bitmaps"?
15:26:13amiconnI've resumed working on .lang cleanup
15:26:22preglowamiconn: cleanup how?
15:26:36dufuSFL is cool!!!
15:27:22amiconnThrow away everything deprecated, combine anything that is separated just for historical reasons (stuff from before splash() ), and group the strings somewhat
15:27:40amiconnShould be helpful for l10n v2
15:27:50needleboywhat are "combined bitmaps"?
15:29:59 Quit Rondom (No route to host)
15:30:07preglowamiconn: ok, good
15:30:24preglowneedleboy: current wpses use a zillion small bmp files
15:30:26lostlogicSlasheri: My first attack at the pcmbuf is on sourceforge if you're interested. http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1417808&group_id=44306&atid=439120
15:30:32preglowneedleboy: we want to combine all of them to one file
15:30:37amiconnI started this back in december, then got annoyed by the 3000+ lines file
15:30:43preglowneedleboy: reasons is that small bmp files waste disk space and slow down wps load
15:30:43needleboyand make a map? like in HTML?
15:30:49preglowneedleboy: pretty much, yeah
15:31:00preglowneedleboy: when you need to use a picture in a wps, you just use coordinates
15:31:03needleboymakes some stuff easier, some harder...
15:31:07Slasherilostlogic: nice, i saw your patch :) i will try it soon
15:31:22needleboyhow about two mode images? like on/off buttons
15:31:22preglowneedleboy: yeah, but the current solution isn't good enough
15:31:29preglowneedleboy: two coordinates?
15:31:36needleboyoh oh oh
15:31:38needleboyok...
15:31:48preglowall this messing around with coordinates is not pretty
15:31:49needleboyyou mean just pull the part of the image you need...
15:31:53needleboygotcha
15:32:11preglowand it becomes very hard to resize bitmaps like this
15:32:22lostlogicSlasheri: cool, been playing music all night, so in the basic sense of playing tracks and automatic track changes, it works.
15:32:33preglowi think i'd prefer some preprocessor scheme that makes a wps file from one wps description and many bmps
15:33:43needleboypreglow, that's not good
15:33:53needleboyall themes will look the same...
15:33:55dufuSwtf

15:36:21preglowlostlogic: yeah...
15:36:31needleboyyou said same WPS descriptions...
15:36:37needleboyi'm trying to figure that out ATM
15:36:40muesli__what about #rockbox-lounge
15:36:44needleboywhat does that mean?
15:36:54dufuS#devs
15:37:07preglowneedleboy: the wps description is what the .wps file is now
15:37:15preglowthe layout and everything
15:37:20needleboyok, which is exactly what i understood
15:37:31needleboyyou said you want it hardcoded and the same to all WPS?
15:37:36preglowhell no
15:37:49needleboyquote: that makes a wps file from one wps description and many bmps
15:37:51needleboyexplain?
15:37:53needleboy:))
15:38:08aegrayaaghhhhh ipod people!
15:38:11preglowit's just like now, just that you have some tool which combines all the file and converts the bitmaps to native rockbox format
15:38:18MoosBagder,LinusN: still the same wiki spam :(
15:38:19preglowthen packs all into one .wps file that rockbox can read fast

16:58:23preglowhaha
16:58:25muesli__lcd-remote available?
16:58:27linuxstbHold down record as you are booting to reset the settings to the defaults :)
16:58:29preglowscreen is turned off when the backlight is
16:58:40DCfanthx
16:58:42 Part Pi
16:58:47preglowperhaps we should consider making that setting illegal
16:58:49linuxstbI think that should be classed as a bug :)
16:58:58lostlogicI suggested that at one point
16:59:02lostlogicbut amiconn pointed out blind users
16:59:14Rob2222_Bger : There?
16:59:25linuxstbMaybe we should make it a separate "disable LCD" type option.
16:59:35DCfanok
16:59:51lostlogicyah, maybe.
16:59:53DCfani've reset the settings
16:59:54DCfanthx alot
16:59:55amiconnAnother option just for that single purpose?
16:59:56muesli__and please sleeptimer in 1minute steps :o
16:59:57ep0chdid turning off the lcd make it into ihp-1x0?
16:59:59preglowblind users is no excuse for that setting
17:00
17:00:14preglowit's confusing for everyone else
17:00:17lostlogicep0ch: you don't want tot urn it off on the H1x0 becaus eyou can use it w/o backlight
17:00:50Paprica[17:34:47] <ep0ch> Paprica: what OS?
17:00:53preglowif backlight is turned off completely, then at least the screen turn-off should be disabled
17:00:57Papricawindows..
17:01:03ep0chbut i'd quite like having the lcd off
17:01:05preglowit's not logical to be able to switch off the display completely
17:01:40linuxstbIt is for blind users, or when the lcd remote can be used as a complete replacement for the main unit's LCD.
17:01:50Moosyes, like suggested linuxstb, that need one option imho
17:02:39ep0chPaprica: ah didn't have that problem on cygwin when i did it a while back, but i had a similar kind of error on freebsd as i was using make instead of gmake.

17:24:40preglow\o/
17:24:58LinusNso, how do we want color selection to work?
17:25:36LinusNthe current color selection patch uses a config file which assigns names to rgb cobinations
17:25:50LinusNand then you select colors from a menu with those names
17:26:06LinusNthat approach has two drawbacks:
17:26:26LinusN1) You can't define custom colors without a pc
17:26:47LinusN2) Localization is not easy
17:26:50amiconnRGB sliders I'd thik

17:31:51Papricamm LinusN, you will add an option to different color for the wps?
17:31:52LinusNyes, a separate wps font might be a good thing
17:31:58Papricaor a same color for all?
17:32:07LinusNalso, separate wps fg/bg colors too
17:32:12linuxstbI think there's a demand for more than a simple fg/bg customistation - i.e. different colours for different elements of the ui, such as menus, file browser, status bar, splashes etc.
17:32:14LinusNmaybe even per line
17:32:23LinusNlinuxstb: of course
17:32:59linuxstbFor WPS, I think we should have fg/bg colour tags that work properly with scrolling text.
17:33:18linuxstbWe need a UI person working full-time......

17:38:58linuxstbfairplay: If you have a few minutes, could you look at the new ipod installation wiki page, and let me know if you can spot any mistakes. I don't use windows, so I may have mis-remembered some things - http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IpodInstallation
17:39:23linuxstbAlso, what's your problem with mp3? Do they skip sometimes?
17:39:49fairwaylinuxstb: I noticed that the roxbox screen does not fit the full screen
17:40:12fairwaylinuxstb: I had to forward skip to make them play
17:40:20linuxstbYes - the "wps" screens are not designed for the ipod. We should have some nice full-colour ones soon...
17:40:44elinenbelinuxstb: what is the status of ogg on the ipod?
17:40:53linuxstbYes, that's a general audio playback bug - if you skip to the next track, you have to seek a little to get it to play.
17:40:54preglowelinenbe: works fine
17:41:02preglowelinenbe: with more work to be done, of course
17:41:08elinenbethe wiki needs to be updated then...
17:41:17preglowi fixed it yesterday
17:41:21linuxstbMy highest bitrate file was about 219kbps, and that was fine.

17:41:27preglow265 here, worked fine
17:41:31Slasherihmm, btw could you recommend any good earbuds? I would like to get those which has good sound isolations but also good quality.. I was thinking maybe koss spark plug or koss the plug would work?
17:41:42elinenbethe bottom is incorrect
17:42:01elinenbeI'm going to get a nano today! :-)
17:42:31preglowgood!
17:42:37linuxstbelinenbe: That table should probably have "realtime on ipod" and "Realtime on iriver" columns - the "plays" and "seeks" columns should be player-neutral (after we fix the Musepack bug)
17:42:41fairwaylinuxstb: yep it looks good
17:42:49preglowi'll have a look at musepack right now

17:43:01lostlogicSlasheri: I use shure E3 and I love them... Lear used to use them too, but had problems with the cords that go over the ears cracking, I hear good things about the Etymotic Research in-ear phones too
17:43:32Slasherilostlogic: hmm, i will check those too, thanks :)
17:44:12lostlogicSlasheri: shure are pricier −− the E2 is their "consumer" level and those retail at ~60-80USD, E3 are anywhere from $115-$180
17:45:06Slasheriah, interesting.. Shure sounds like a good brand.. I will find some reviews and try to find where i could buy them :)
17:45:30lostlogic:)
17:45:30fairwayflac and ogg playing is gapless right?
17:45:35preglowyea
17:45:36Slasheriyes
17:45:38preglowgapless works as it should
17:46:05lostlogicSlasheri: not that you probably have the time, but I'm about to upload a new patch for the pcmbuf stuff with the now working assembly version of the callback
17:46:26elinenbepreglow, linuxstb: what IS NOT working on the ipod build −− from a user point of view?
17:46:44Slasherilostlogic: ah, good. I try to have some time soon to look into that
17:47:00lostlogicSlasheri: :)
17:47:19linuxstbelinenbe: No battery status is an obvious omission. As is no volume control or other sound settings
17:47:21preglowelinenbe: sound settings, ui is pretty sluggish, battery view
17:47:40DocterDSlasheri: Stay away from koss the plug
17:47:48fairwaythe rockbox screen does not fit the full screen
17:47:57fairwayif I select themes they are displayed wrong
17:47:57SlasheriDocterD: hehe.. probably i will :D
17:48:38DocterDhmm anyone tried Etymotic ER-6i?
17:49:01linuxstbfairway: The themes are displayed correctly, is just that the themes were designed for the iRiver H140 - a smaller LCD with greyscale.
17:49:03DocterDi heared shure e2 have to much bass
17:49:04preglowfairway: themes have to be custom tailored for each platform now
17:49:17fairwaypreglow: I see
17:49:17preglowthis will probably not change
17:49:37linuxstbBut the iPod Color/Photo and iriver H300 can share themes.
17:50:57elinenbeah... that is a slight problem −− volume control would be the number one issue.
17:51:01fairwayhow do manage files just drag directories?
17:51:08elinenbeis the UI sluggish because of the LCD driver?
17:51:11preglowwtf
17:51:16preglowmusepack gives me some really odd behaviour
17:51:29preglowwhen i load a musepack file, nothing happens, at the file is loaded again and again...
17:51:42linuxstbfairway: Yes - just drag and drop directories.
17:52:35linuxstbelinenbe: At the moment we are only using one of the iPod's two ARM cpus. That cpu is pretty busy when decoding audio, not leaving much time left for the ui. The LCD driver can be improved, but is probably not the bottleneck.
17:52:40fairwaynice
17:52:59linuxstbYou can uninstall itunes now if you wish :)
17:53:13fairwayyes really hate it
17:53:50linuxstbAnother issue will probably be battery life. I'm about to start a battery test now to see how long my ipod can play FLAC files for on a full charge.

17:54:49Slasherilostlogic: Hmm, there seems to be shure E4 also.. but maybe i will stick with E3, those are much cheaper :D
17:54:58preglowmy guess is: not for long
17:55:21lostlogicSlasheri: yeah, there's also a new model coming out from shure E400 or something that have 3 drivers in an in-ear design... not sure what the pricing will be.
17:55:41Slasherihehe, i guess pretty high :)
17:55:44lostlogicSlasheri: the only complaint some people have with E3 is that they don't have pounding bass, but the overall sound quality is great
17:55:54linuxstbpreglow: I am hoping we may be surprised - we sleep one of the CPUs, and we use the hard drive as efficiently as we can. But I'm curious.
17:56:02muesli__Slasheri i know a guy who used shure e4 and is now completely happy with his ultimate ears pro
17:56:14Slasherihmm, that shouldn't be too much an issue.. And iriver has an EQ
17:56:27Slasherimuesli :)
17:56:32muesli__:)
17:56:39elinenbelinuxstb: is the information available to use the second ARM cpu? What I am trying to say is does the IPL project use that?
17:56:44muesli__i love my ue eb :D
17:56:54muesli__but didnt try shure
17:56:56fairwayyes I agree sound should be fixed
17:57:46 Quit DocterD ("Leaving")
17:58:12linuxstbelinenbe: Yes, how to use the second CPU is well-known by the IPL project.
17:58:40linuxstbThey use it to feed the uncompressed audio data to the DAC - we're doing that on the main CPU at the moment.

18:01:31preglowelinenbe: the last
18:01:39ep0chis it just me or has rockbox suddenly become very sluggish? i.e the gui is unusable for about 10 seconds then dircache seems to kick in and all is well after that. no fancy wps is being used.

18:10:05linuxstb_Nice. I'll just change the wiki page again....
18:10:14preglowi really had to fight the coldfire version to achieve this level...
18:11:26linuxstb_I can imagine compressed video being very feasible on these ipods.
18:11:46linuxstb_Not easy, but feasible.
18:13:00linuxstb_I wonder what's up with ALAC though...
18:13:05preglowyeah, the cpu is a bit easier to work with
18:13:08*preglow fires up the disassembler
18:13:59elinenbelinuxstb: compressed video as custom format like the IPL project, or standar avi packed xvid/mp3, divx/mp3 or mpg?
18:14:44preglowahahha
18:14:52preglowthe funny part is, i can find tons of spots to optimise straight away
18:16:35preglowgcc is a really, really stupid little twit
18:16:39linuxstb_elinenbe: I'm only speculating, but it feels as if something like xvid/mp3 should in theory be possible.
18:17:03linuxstb_preglow: Are you talking about musepack?
18:17:07preglowyes

18:26:34linuxstb_http://www.davechapman.f2s.com/rockbox/sound.diff
18:26:45lostlogicI'm impressed at how quickly things got realtime on the ipod... damn that 80mhz arm for beating up my 124mhz coldfire.
18:27:19linuxstb_It's an unfinished work-in-progress. Uncommenting the call to wm8975_set_master_vol() _should_ work, but for some reason ends up muting the sound.
18:27:21preglowlostlogic: yeah, overall, it seems to be easier to work with
18:27:43preglowbut our iram work for coldfire has probably helped lots
18:27:44 Quit fairway ()
18:27:52elinenbelostlogic: i agree... everything was up and running very quickly... amazing work by preglow and linuxstb_
18:28:05linuxstb_preglow: Also, the call to wm8975_set_master_vol() should be called with the variables "l" and "r", not the constants 0x79 - that was just a test.
18:28:07lostlogicpreglow: yeah, coldfire was the first swcodec system, so I guess that gives it some excuse :-P
18:30:26preglowyeah
18:30:29ep0chis the audio buffer debug screen working on ipod?
18:30:35preglowalso, most of rockbox has been easy to work with

18:30:46lostlogiclol
18:31:12ep0choh but there's no boosting on ipod yet?
18:31:26linuxstb_No - it runs at a fixed 75MHz.
18:31:26ep0chso you can't tell how well codecs are really doing
18:32:05linuxstb_No - only by the UI lag...

19:43:22LinusNi think the bmp cache is overkill
19:43:49LinusNand as amiconn called it, "non-KISS"
19:44:06Slasheriyep, i think it might be too.. i just created as simple solution as possible until there is a better solution for that..
19:44:20LinusNi didn't even know there was a problem
19:45:04Slasherihehe, not a problem exactly. But loading a wps with over 10 image files at boot time, takes quite a long time (in many seconds) because open() without dircache is slow
19:45:24Slasheriso this will give quite significant boost in boot time

19:48:03LinusNhttp://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=2312.msg17068#msg17068
19:48:06amiconnI think there must be some potential; I have the impression that ata is no faster than on the recorder, despite the faster cpu and all
19:48:11Slasheriamiconn: yep, or even more better, make a small modification to the bootloader so we could load the dircache very early during rockbox startup and then make open() to so it too while locating the first cluster..
19:48:23Slasherithat would make the image cache very unnecessary
19:48:38Slasheriso=use
19:49:00amiconnLoading dircache from disk is a no-go
19:49:09Slasherihmm, really?
19:49:13amiconnyes
19:49:15Slasherieven if bootloader could know if it's safe
19:49:31amiconnThe bootloader can't know
19:49:35Slasheriit can..
19:49:40amiconn?
19:49:50amiconnHow so? You can run iriver fw
19:50:03Slasheriwe can mark the cache as dirty when booting into original iriver firmware or using bootloader usb mode (for example change one bit from eeprom)
19:50:25LinusNSlasheri: the bootloader starts the original firmware before initializing ATA
19:50:26Slasherii just need to check that changing those bits wont confuse the iriver fw..
19:50:38SlasheriLinusN: yep, but we could probably use the eeprom :)
19:50:43amiconnI would prefer to keep the bootloader simple & reliable
19:50:52LinusNthe original firmware uses the eeprom
19:51:01Slasheriamiconn: it wouldn't change the reliability.. there is still the reset cookie
19:51:05LinusNk i s s
19:51:22SlasheriLinusN: true, that's why it needs to be checked if it's safe to do
19:51:29LinusNand it isn't
19:52:34LinusNalso, what happens if the cache file becomes corrupt for whatever reason?
19:52:58SlasheriLinusN: that's about the same situations as if fat becomes corrupt..
19:53:10LinusNnot really
19:53:58Slasheriin fact, we could use checksum for extra safety when loading the cache file..
19:54:09Rob2222Whats the problem here? You want to start the dircache more early?
19:54:29SlasheriRob2222: that could be one possibility to boot rockbox faster
19:54:56Rob2222IMHO RB is booting fast enough ...
19:55:16Rob2222Looks like you never used iriver FW with 60GB files... ^^
19:55:26Rob2222At least for me is RB a dream.
19:55:36Slasheri:)
19:55:47Rob2222I dont see the need of faster booting, really.
19:55:59LinusNfaster booting is always nice
19:56:00Rob2222But thats only my honest opinion

20:16:28Papricadifferent patch from the margins
20:16:32linuxstb__preglow: I agree that combined bitmaps for WPS will be a pain for users to create - unless tools are available to help.
20:16:42Papricamm yep
20:17:02lostlogicthat's how many other programs are themed though, so I'm sure they can deal... I meah H3mod for the iRiver firmware was a combined image format.
20:17:57linuxstb__Does H3mod help the user with combining images, or does the user have to do it manually?
20:18:07SlasheriNicoFR: now the problem you were experiencing should be gone (hopefully)
20:18:11lostlogicnot sure, never used the tool myself.
20:20:06preglowlinuxstb__: i want the tool approach
20:20:23preglowand it should not be difficult to implement the tools
20:20:27preglowwe could ever pre-parse the wps :-)
20:22:43 Nick linuxstb__ is now known as linuxstb (n=linuxstb@i-83-67-212-170.freedom2surf.net)
20:23:15linuxstbAt least for the WPSs in CVS, we can do anything we like to them. Converting to native bitmaps and combining into a single file should be relatively easy.
20:24:00linuxstbAnd we can release a tool for third-party WPS authors to do the same - or keep the current bitmap loader as an alternative.
20:24:02amiconnImho that would be a bad idea
20:24:21linuxstbWhy?
20:24:24amiconnThen we would have to support 2 different formats for loading
20:24:33linuxstbYou mean keeping the old is a bad idea?
20:24:40preglowno, one format is enough
20:24:47preglowthe tool should be fast enough to use during wps development
20:24:56preglowunless you're on a 286
20:24:58amiconnlinuxstb: No, I think the preparsed format is a bad idea
20:25:22preglowwhy is preparsing bad?
20:25:30amiconnYou can't easily check what's inside such a file in case loading it goes wrong
20:25:33preglowwould be nice to be able to edit it, of course
20:25:35preglowbut yeah
20:25:39preglowpre-parsing is a non-issue for me
20:25:41amiconn...and you need a PC to change it
20:25:49preglowi just want all the bitmap to be collected to one big bitmap
20:25:57linuxstbBut that's like any kind of compiling. How can you change a bitmap without using a PC?
20:26:07amiconnAscii files could be edited directly on the unit
20:26:23amiconnThere is no editor yet, but that can be changed

20:26:30preglowmy point is the bitmaps
20:27:00amiconnMany many skinning systems use combined bitmaps. I don't see the problem
20:27:07preglowit's a huge bother for the maker
20:27:12preglowconsider resizing one bitmap

20:27:22preglowhow do you do that without just killing yourself from frustration?
20:27:45linuxstbIt's also less efficient - it's not going to be possible to perfectly pack X bitmaps into a rectangle without gaps
20:27:52preglowi think the skinning systems you're talking about use fixed size bitmaps
20:27:53amiconnShrinking is dead simple
20:27:54preglowwe don't
20:27:54lostlogicthat's a good point, we support bitmaps of any size, freely stuck wherever creators want them, most theming systems limit the user to filling specific bitmap 'slots', and so a combined format is static
20:27:56Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb: Small error in the IpodInstallation page. ipodpatcher -r bootpartition.bin N doesn't work. The N needs to come before the filename, apparently
20:28:18Paul_The_NerdAlready updated the Wiki, just figured I'd pass it on
20:28:31amiconnlostlogic: Maybe the majority does, but not all
20:28:34preglowamiconn: explain how one could resie one bitmap in a big bitmap grid easily
20:28:40linuxstbPaul_The_Nerd: Ok, thanks. I was about to ask if you can could confirm that.
20:28:56preglowsmaller is possible because you can just leave some unused space
20:28:58preglowbigger is lots worse
20:29:00preglowyou need to move everything
20:29:11Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb: Everything else looks good.
20:29:21linuxstbPaul_The_Nerd: Thanks for checking.
20:29:30amiconnYes, but you can move all at once
20:29:33Paul_The_Nerd's what I'm here for. Heh
20:30:01amiconnIt's one cut'n'paste operation in your image processor
20:30:49preglowamiconn: depends on how efficiently you want to use the bitmap space, it can be far worse than that
20:31:14preglowbut ok, i rather say we ask the wps makers about this
20:31:21preglowi've never made a wps, and probably never will either
20:31:59amiconnI did, but without any bitmaps
20:32:43preglowso in practice you haven't either
20:32:48preglowsince its bitmaps we're talking about
20:32:53_FireFly_preglow if you save your combined bitmap "project-file" in a format which supports layer then it is easier to move/resize some subimages, in my opinion
20:33:04preglow_FireFly_: not everyone has photoshop
20:33:12_FireFly_what about gimp ;)
20:33:15preglowgimp works as well, i guess
20:33:24preglowlast time i tried that in windows, it wasn't all that, though
20:33:28preglowbut that might easily have changed
20:33:28Paul_The_NerdI think bitmap part could be really useful for things like... battery meters, or "status" buttons (Play/Pause/FF/RW), but it feels like it might be hassle overall.
20:34:04_FireFly_for conditional images it is a good format to save a bit space
20:34:25_FireFly_because one conditional image-set has mostly one size
20:35:36_FireFly_the first try of my combined bitmap support patch was only to combine conditional-images e.g. Play/Pause/FF/REW
20:35:42_FireFly_for testing
20:38:16_FireFly_the wps which i use uses for example an 160x25 image in which all bitmaps are combined
20:38:50_FireFly_this image has only 562Bytes
20:39:05Learpreglow: gimp works quite well on windows, imho. If not that, there's always Paint.net.
20:39:45_FireFly_the size of the individual images are: ca 1,6KB
20:40:59linuxstbBut I guess users don't have to combine _every_ bitmap into a single bitmap. A combined bitmap feature would allow users to easily combine bimaps of the same size - which would still reduce the number of bmp files by a lot.
20:41:12_FireFly_yepp
20:41:27Paul_The_NerdI think ideally, you'd combine all the bitmaps that would share the same location on a screen... any that would be in the same conditional.
20:41:54linuxstbSo, who's going to implement combined bitmaps? :)
20:41:57_FireFly_let the wps-maker deside in which way(how many images he want to combine) he will use this feature
20:42:00preglowit already is implemented
20:42:02preglowit's in a patch
20:42:09_FireFly_linuxstb: my patch is ready

21:32:16Paul_The_NerdWell, if the margins patch, or something like it, wanders in, then a WPS creator should be able to absolutely avoid drawing on anything but the background image anyway
21:32:58linuxstb_I think two layers - background image and foreground should be enough. We have to draw the line somewhere or there will be no CPU left to play music....

22:04:33NicoFRi'll test it now
22:05:36sim0nis a full color version of the UI planner? or being worked on ?
22:06:31webguest80a little question is h300 optimized linked to to rockbox ( or is it the source and all the extra .wcs and plugins)?
22:07:30webguest80And another one is battery life still anissue I heard both opinions....? Thanks a lot
22:08:21Paul_The_Nerdwebguest80: What do you mean "linked?" Also, the battery life issue is, as far as I know, not yet resolved.
22:08:45webguest80ok thanks!
22:09:13webguest80is h300 optimized as stable as the daily build?
22:09:45lostlogicwebguest80: any kind of patches over the CVS will have a higherlikelihood of brokenness
22:10:24Paul_The_Nerdh300 optimized is a variety of patches applied to the daily build, so it may be less stable because of bugs in the patches. Or it may not be. It's maintained by Needleboy.
22:10:50Paul_The_Nerdsim0n: Some color upgrade ideas relating to the status bar, scroll bars, etc, have been talked about a bit, but I don't know that anyone is working on or planning anything specific yet.
22:11:12webguest80is the 24-bit patch actually "loaded in " the CVS or only in needleboy's h300 cvs + patch
22:11:48webguest80Nick/ Tiennou
22:12:03lostlogicwebguest80: look at the CVS logs on rockbox.org, or the diffs on the daily builds page
22:12:19webguest80ok

22:13:36sim0nPaul_The_Nerd: ok ... is it a lot of work to implement color gui-elements ?
22:13:55midkayanyone here can help with ipod installation on a video?
22:13:59sim0ni got an ipod nano... rockbox seems to work great, it's just the battery level is always low. i think the capacity is 330mah (found that on the net)....but i can't set something below 1500
22:14:08midkayreading instructions, i see the bootloader but where can i get rockbox.zip for video? only nano and color afaict
22:14:13sim0nwhat file may i hack to maybe fix this or hardcode it ?

22:16:57Paul_The_Nerdmidkay: I cannot speak for the 5g/video support *at all*. I hear it works to an extent, but as far as I'm aware, sound is still not working. If you'd like, and you trust me, I can compile you a iPodVideo rockbox.zip
22:17:01midkayand it's possible to uninstall rockbox on the ipods, right? with the apple updater perhaps?
22:17:13Paul_The_NerdThe apple updater will uninstall it completely.
22:17:31midkayPaul_The_Nerd, i hear it works except for audio playback
22:17:36sim0nanyway..i'm damn impressed by rockbox... the gui isn't as nice as on a regular ipod nano, but the features are awesome.... i can play ogg files on it .. just w00t :-D
22:17:40linuxstb_midkay: You can also uninstall by restoring the original "bootparition.bin" file that you create during installation.
22:17:57preglowlinuxstb_: still runnin'?

22:18:34midkaylinuxstb_, cool, thanks :)
22:18:48preglowssnajper: thanks
22:18:49ssnajperi am eagerly awaiting the 3g solution by slimx
22:18:52Paul_The_Nerdmidkay: Yeah. There's an additional step you need to prepare the bootloader properly, by the way: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IpodBoot <−−- Full instructions here, if you skim down to the end of part 2 and pick up from there
22:19:10ssnajperdoes anyone know the status on that?
22:19:20Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb_: I was gonna get to the bootpartition.bin part, when I remembered the extra step for merging the fw, too. Heh
22:19:50linuxstb_ssnajper: slimx seems to be making good progress, but he's working by himself, and he's new to Rockbox.
22:20:05midkayPaul_The_Nerd, oh, i see, thanks..
22:20:06Midgey34linuxstb_: question about AAC playing on ipod in realtime
22:20:17Midgey34could it possibly be because of gcc 4?
22:20:27 Part webguest79
22:20:28Paul_The_Nerdmidkay: http://66.68.93.2/5g/rockbox.zip but let me know once it's downloaded, as I don't plan to *leave* it up.
22:20:29ssnajperah ok, I''ll be patient, can't wait for gapless on the ipod tough!
22:20:39Midgey34didn't AAC run realtime on iriver using gcc 4, but other codecs did worse?
22:20:43midkaygetting it now
22:20:56linuxstb_Midgey34: Yes, I think that helps a little - gcc4 made AAC better on the iriver, but still not realtime.

22:34:42LearYeah, I like them. A bit weak in bass though...
22:34:45blueytoo much bass
22:34:45preglowPaul_The_Nerd: though i'd prefer it if you used one codec
22:34:49linuxstb_midkay: You need to use "-g video" and not "-g nano"
22:35:02midkaydoc says -g 5g, so i did that
22:35:06Paul_The_Nerdpreglow: Okay, pick a codec. Though the OGGs are all compressed with identical settings, so they're probably best.
22:35:10blueyhmhm
22:35:10preglowPaul_The_Nerd: mp3s only would be nice
22:35:11midkayseems to have worked.. and yes, extracted the sw_5g_rcsc thing
22:35:17preglowPaul_The_Nerd: ok, try the oggs then :)
22:35:17Paul_The_NerdOkay
22:35:21LearHm.. I like my porta pros... Mainly used them with a bass-weak player though... :)
22:35:23linuxstb_midkay: That's fine. -g 5g and -g video are equivalent.
22:35:33midkaylinuxstb_, good :)
22:35:43preglowPaul_The_Nerd: at least that'll give us a near worst-case scenario, tremor is slow on ipod yet
22:35:51Lear(Player, ass in Archos player, aka Studio)
22:35:51Paul_The_NerdI'll run the oggs then. The MP3s are just two albums that have been stolen, so I can't rerip. (Well, one album, two discs.)
22:35:59blueythey are ok for the price but after some time you want more
22:36:29linuxstb_preglow: But CPU performance probably doesn't have much of an effect. With the WPS and FIQ constantly using the CPU, it can't sleep.
22:36:48preglowlinuxstb_: it doesn't sleep anyway
22:36:50preglowlinuxstb_: it just loops
22:36:51linuxstb_:)
22:36:58preglowso you're right
22:37:11preglowperhaps i should give some sleep code a shot
22:37:17midkayawesome, it runs.
22:37:25linuxstb_I don't think it's important unless we move the FIQ.
22:37:29preglowi'll do some musepack janitoring now so i can get that out of my head
22:37:32midkaythx all :)
22:37:43midkayi've been waiting for this moment, used to code for the archos players a long time ago :)
22:38:33linuxstb_midkay: Now you need to fire up IDA Pro and work out how audio playback works on the 5g.....
22:38:41midkaylinuxstb_, hooray ;)
22:39:42lostlogicwhen audio works on 5g, it might overcome my hatred of anything popular enough to make me get one :-P

22:58:57NicoFRamiconn: have you managed to compile the cross-compiler on your AMD64 ?
22:59:01ep0chi always thought few = 3....
22:59:05NicoFRand what distro are you on ?
22:59:12amiconnNicoFR: Not the m68k one
22:59:16dtallGentoo stable
22:59:33NicoFRI'm on kubuntu for MAD64 and I didn't manage to compile m68k :(
22:59:54dtallLinux monolith 2.6.15-gentoo-r1 #1 SMP PREEMPT Sun Jan 29 02:28:06 GMT 2006 i686 AMD Duron(tm) Processor AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux
23:00
23:00:02linuxstb_ep0ch: Apple claim "up to 15 hours" for my ipod.
23:00:27amiconndtall: Perhaps the smp is the problem?
23:00:48dtallWith 1 processor....
23:00:53NicoFRamiconn: btw, would you know how to make wine run on AMD64 ?
23:01:08amiconnYeah, I wonder why one installs an smp kernel for a 1-cpu machine
23:01:09elinenbelinuxstb_: have you tried it with 128kbps mp3s? I am sure that is what they test... probably actually 128kbps aac files
23:01:10dtallIt does look like some kind of thread sync problem
23:01:19NicoFRi searched but it seems complicated and i'm a linux noob
23:01:28linuxstb_elinenbe: No - I'm recharging now, and may do another test with a lossy codec later.
23:01:34lostlogicI run gentoo unstable on my athlon-mp 2100s with 2.6.13.4, no USB trouble.
23:01:37dtallThe ISD-200 driver was noted to be broken with pre-empting on 2.4
23:01:43lostlogicdtall: have you tried different USB cables
23:01:49dtallyep
23:01:55amiconnNicoFR: I have no idea yet. Got this linux box for a couple of days now
23:02:11lostlogicand different orders of loading your USB drive modules? I have to load ohci and then ehci (IIRC) in order for it to be happy with both high speed and full speed devices
23:02:11dtalltwo different cables, two different hardware configs
23:02:12NicoFRok
23:02:50dtallI have removed ehci and this fixed another USB HDD which I think means I do need a USB 2 cable for that
23:02:52amiconn...and it's not that important for me, since I still have windows on my laptop
23:03:04__peer____Anyone got IFP790 or IAudio g3?
23:03:05dtallbut this seems to be more fundamental
23:03:25preglowi'm considering redoing the musepack/ directory
23:03:29***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
23:03:46dtallNo windows boxen
23:03:52preglowdoing diffs is a nightmare, they've converted their entire project from crlf to lf, which gives pretty rich diffs...
23:04:28ep0chlinuxstb: does the harddisk spin down when not being used on your ipod?
23:04:29merbananpreglow: does -b help ?
23:04:30amiconn_preglow: Convert old source to lf, then do diff (?)

23:05:36dtallsorry about that flood
23:05:37dtallOK. I'll use #flood
23:06:15lostlogicdtall: we aren't kernel experts, you will really have better luck talking to people who are, rather than people who write music player software?
23:06:17TerryHi all
23:06:51dtallOK.
23:07:01 Part dtall
23:07:11TerryI've got an iriver T30, what is the best way to get files on/off it? from a linux box.
23:08:01 Quit NicoFR ()
23:08:39ep0chplug it in and mount it
23:09:15TerryOK, plug it in is simple, how do I mount it?
23:09:23preglowwhy are you asking here?
23:09:30 Quit einhirn (Connection timed out)
23:09:37preglowthis isn't an iriver support channel
23:10:14peturlooks more like a linux support channel ;)
23:10:23ep0chTerry: do a quick google search
23:10:47TerryOK, sorry, thanks bye.
23:11:08 Part Terry
23:12:36lostlogicapparently we are linux support, iRiver support, archos support, and soon to be iPod support :)
23:12:48preglowme reminds people of #rockbox-dev...
23:13:27ModernExecutivenice
23:13:28Learyou mean there is such a thing? :)
23:13:32preglowno :)
23:13:39preglowi just joined it to see if it did, heh
23:14:10peturwhat would be the point? everybody would move to that one ;)
23:14:18preglownah, i' hang in both
23:14:20preglowi'd
23:14:32Paul_The_NerdI would too. Heh.
23:14:33preglowit's just that with the increasing noise in here, moving strictly dev talk to another place would be good
23:14:53Paul_The_NerdOr labelling a channel strictly for support/questions?
23:15:09ep0chyeah just dont forget to log it
23:15:19preglowno, it would have to be logged
