#rockbox log for 2006-02-05

00:00:09amiconnbmp2rb supports all standard formats (1/4/8/15/24/32) bit, but not the 16 bit variants with masks
00:00:53amiconnThe screendump bitmaps are 16 bit because of simplicity
00:01:03amiconn(on 16 bit targets)
00:01:34 Quit perplexity (Read error: 113 (No route to host))
00:01:58LinusN5-5-5, right?
00:02:20amiconn5-6-5
00:02:27amiconnOtherwise it would be 15 bit
00:02:35LinusNi didn't know that bmp had a 5-6-5 mode
00:02:52amiconnIt has, but it's not as straightforward as 15 or 24 bit
00:03:23amiconn16 bit mode uses 3 palette entries to define masks, which tell the loader what bits belong to which colour channel
00:03:23LinusNusing masks?
00:03:37LinusNi see
00:03:46amiconnWin 9x supports it, but only if the masks are defined for 5-6-5
00:03:57amiconnWinNT and higher support arbitrary masks
00:04:26amiconnIn theory it is possible to have 7-6-3 or such...

00:06:24BagderLinusN: indeed
00:06:30slimxhave a look :)

00:07:44LinusNthx
00:07:59amiconnLook for the compression format "BI_BITFIELDS"
00:08:26amiconnThis describes the windows 'device independent bitmap' format,
00:08:36amiconnbut DIBs are essentially BMPs in RAM
00:10:05imphasinglinuxstb: I think that's all you have to do; just call the function, and it goes from there.
00:10:09imphasingIs it slow?

00:27:30LinusNdamn cowon, why did they choose an 18-bit lcd...?
00:27:40imphasing..18 bit?
00:27:42imphasingcreepy..
00:27:42JdGordonto be different...
00:28:35amiconnLinusN: Didn't you do an lcd_update() timing plugin?
00:28:54peturI have one...
00:28:59LinusNamiconn: hmmm, i think so, but i don't think i have it anymore
00:29:05amiconnLinusN: The H300 LCD is also 18 bit
00:29:20LinusNamiconn: yes, but with a 16-bit interface
00:29:44LinusNthis sucker is 18-bit with a 9-bit interface
00:29:54amiconnSounds like fun...
00:29:55imphasingThat seems a little weird..
00:29:56LinusNtwo writes per pixel
00:30:01imphasingA 9 bit interface?
00:30:14LinusNthe best part is that the GRAM is 16-bit
00:30:21imphasinghaha
00:30:31imphasingsounds like a fun time, trying to write a driver for..
00:30:34LinusNand the 18 bits are generated with hardware dithering inside the controller
00:31:07peturso you still feed it 16 bit?
00:31:10LinusNno
00:31:35amiconnIiuc you have to feed it 18 bit, which are dithered down to 16bit inside the LCD controller
00:31:37LinusNi feed it 18 bits, which is then stored in 16 bits in GRAM, and then dithered back to 18 bits in the LCD
00:31:50LinusNamiconn: yes, kind of
00:32:01amiconnSounds like a waste of resources...
00:32:07petursounds weird
00:32:08LinusNyes, indeed
00:32:14LinusNquite silly

02:36:11mtnbkrThanks... I'll check it out. :)
02:36:54linuxstbYou can basically follow the Windows-oriented instructions, but you'll have to download the Rockbox source and make your own "ipod_fw" binary.

02:38:53imphasingYou can just reformat it.
02:39:21imphasingIt would be really easy to use a windows ipod updater to do it for you though.

02:42:51imphasingAh, formating it FAT should work fine then.
02:43:05imphasingEasiest thing to do, would be to download the windows ipod updater, and restore.

03:16:59linuxstbExactly. All the rockbox bootloader does is start the kernel.
03:17:06imphasingThat's pretty cool..
03:17:22linuxstbbaobab68: What's your question?
03:17:24imphasingI'll have to do some figuring out, with the init scripts and such.
03:17:32imphasingMaybe I'll port initng to the ipod.
03:17:32imphasing:D
03:19:37baobab68linuxstb: thanks... i'm trying to convert a couple of unicode fonts to RB format and the resulting font sizes are huge.
03:20:05baobab68wondering what DPI would be optimal? i could work it out by measuring the screen, but thought there might be an accepted 'standard'
03:20:28baobab68since otf2bdf can handle a DPI setting, and defaults to 100DPI, I thought I might get away with less.
03:21:12baobab68and reduce the size of the result...
03:21:42BHSPitLappybaobab68: they shouldn't be huge
03:21:48BHSPitLappyoh wait, unicode?
03:21:54baobab68yeah unicode
03:21:58baobab68*all* of it
03:22:06BHSPitLappyyou WANT it to be unicode?
03:22:30baobab68need to display simplified Chinese tags
03:22:49imphasinglinuxstb: It just boots to the original firmware if I hold the play button..
03:22:50baobab68unifont is a bit large, limits what you can have in your WPS, so I thought I'd try some others
03:23:23linuxstbimphasing: It probably can't find your linux.bin - are you sure that's there?
03:23:45baobab68hmmm, i've just put them in the h300 sim, and they do load... the size is comparable to unifont. they're pretty ugle conversions though
03:23:49imphasingI'll check again.
03:24:09linuxstbimphasing: Does the bootloader display "Loading Linux..." ? If not, then it is not recognising the PLAY press
03:24:22imphasingIT just says "loading original firmware"

03:27:04baobab68hmm, looking at my results on the sim, i think more DPI would be better
03:32:41linuxstbamiconn: Interesting results from testing the clz function in ALAC - it seems that the result is never less than 16. The results are the totals from decoding 23 different ALAC files: http://pastebin.com/539503

03:56:43imphasingWhich clz function are you using there?

05:22:02Membrilloive found a plugin_start section in rockdoom.c
05:22:32Membrillodoesnt look there is much there in reference to file location though
05:23:30RotAtoRthe last parameter (void* parameter) if it's not null is a pointer to the string containing the filename
05:24:21Membrilloso do i need to change something there?
05:24:50RotAtoRI'm guessing that then you'll need to find where it's hardcoded to use the "doom.wad" file and have it use the passed in file instead
05:25:41Membrilloso basically i go through all the files and search for doom1.was
05:25:43Membrillowad*
05:26:37Membrilloahhhh
05:26:43Membrillolooks like its in the w_wad.c
05:26:46RotAtoRi have no idea how the code is designed, how to make it use the passed in file is something you'll have to figure out

05:37:12ashridahMembrillo: well, basically, what you need to do is hook up plugin_start to take the passed argument, and hand it to the part of doom that accepts the -wad <filename> flag
05:37:16midkayno space left, and ipod gives me the support url..
05:37:27ashridahif there's no support for this yet, you've probably got a bit of work ahead

05:41:45ashridahthis looks awefully hardcoded
05:42:20ashridahie, it's going to attempt to load one of the wads in /doom/ and then any pwad's specified
05:42:27Membrilloyep
05:42:30Membrillothats what it does
05:42:54Membrillowhich is very inconvinient especially if you have multiple .wads
05:43:31 Quit midkay (Remote closed the connection)
05:45:08ashridahokay
05:45:15ashridahthis looks like it might be actually pretty simple, relatively speaking
05:45:23Membrillothats good to hear :)
05:45:36ashridahbasically, when the plugin starts, myargc and myargv are set by plugin_set
05:45:41ashridahplugin_start even
05:45:50ashridahwhen that happens, it's just straight-out giving them no arguments at all
05:46:33Membrilloalright then. i kind of understand that
05:46:35ashridahso, if you dealt with setting up the arguments appropriately, you should be able to insert the appropriate -wad "filename" stuff into it.
05:46:44ashridahthat said, you'll need to know how arguments are setup
05:46:58Membrillowhich i dont unfortunately :(
05:46:58ashridahmyargc will be the total number of arguments, including the command itself
05:47:02ashridahso
05:47:15 Join midkay [0] (n=midkay@24.143.70.99)
05:47:27ashridahso '0' will be "doom.exe" in most cases, 1 will be "-wad" in your case, and 2 would be the filename
05:47:55ashridahbut you'll need to allocate a string for "-wad" and "doom", i guess (the first will be ignored, it can probably be empty without any major issues)
05:48:11ashridahthe third can probably just point to the filename you get from plugin_start's arguments
05:48:56Membrillothat sounds pretty impossible with my C knowledge. ah well, hopefully someone will read the logs and pick this up. thanks for the help, at least i know its doable

06:01:29ashridahthe problem i can see is that a lot of the wads are hardcoded

07:01:04JdGordoncould be... im reformatting so ill b back in like an hour ready to help out again
07:01:33ashridahyou know, i'd really love it if the damned sim didn't REQUIRE a fricking keypad
07:01:43ashridah(or at least, this is how it appears)
07:01:47JdGordonu on a lappy?
07:01:51ashridahJdGordon: no
07:01:57ashridahbut i don't have a keypad
07:02:05JdGordonwierd... change the key mappings...
07:02:27ashridahnot weird, i bought this keyboard specifically because it doesn't
07:02:37JdGordoneven wierder
07:02:42ashridahand i'd rather not have to repeatedly fight against checkins
07:03:46ashridahJdGordon: not really. happy hacker keyboards are designed with a particular action and form factor in mind. it also has the control key in the appropriate non-braindead location :)
07:04:49JdGordonwhere should the ctrl be?
07:05:02ashridahright of the 'A' key
07:05:06ashridahsorry

07:12:30midkayum. anyone know what i need to do to get my plugin to compile.
07:12:50midkayis there a list of plugins that need to be compiled or something?
07:13:01ashridahmidkay: typically, add it to SOURCES or the Makefile if it's a subdirectory
07:13:15midkayit's in apps/plugins
07:13:17midkayeverything else compiles
07:13:20midkaymine is skipped over..
07:13:23midkayor.
07:13:27midkaydo i need to redo the makefile.

08:53:10amiconnlinuxstb_: (clz results) Interesting....
08:53:41amiconnIt seems that alac would in fact be happy with a clz function that only handles shorts
08:54:16 Join JdGordon [0] (n=Miranda@c220-239-137-122.smelb1.vic.optusnet.com.au)
08:54:20amiconnYOu would have to dig up all places that use the result; I expect some correction by 16 there...
08:55:04amiconnI have another idea for profiling - in case profiling doesn't work on iPod, just do it on your irver.
08:55:16amiconnThis should at least tell you the hot spots...

09:00:14 Join thegeek [0] (n=thegeek@s026b.studby.ntnu.no)
09:04:36imphasingI think __builtin_clz handles shorts, and __builtin_clzl does longs
09:04:42imphasingso you can switch between them if you need to
09:04:49imphasingnot sure which one he decided on though
09:04:53imphasingyours or the builtin
09:07:07***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
09:08:45amiconnAfair __builtin_clz handles ints, whatever that is depending on the target arch (16 or 32 bit)
09:08:58imphasingAh yes, I think you're right..
09:09:22amiconnThis int vs. long is a mess today...
09:09:39amiconnUp to 32 bit archs it was simple.
09:09:41imphasingI wouldn't mind stricter types..
09:09:52 Join midkay [0] (n=midkay@24.143.70.99)
09:10:02imphasinglike, int16, int32, int64, long128, whatever.
09:10:06amiconnshort = 16 bit, int = 16 or 32 bit, long = 32 bit
09:10:15imphasingMost of the time.
09:10:16imphasing:P
09:10:22amiconn..but the 64 bit archs messed that up :(
09:10:24imphasingyeah
09:10:24imphasing:(
09:10:39amiconnAMD64: int = 32 bit (!), long = 64 bit
09:10:44imphasinggah.
09:10:58imphasingI don't mess with 64, but I should probably start making my code more compatible..
09:11:02amiconnbut (afik) IA64: int = 64 bit, long = 64 bit
09:11:23imphasingIA64 is intel's, right?
09:11:33amiconnYes, aka Itanium
09:11:43imphasingAh yes..
09:11:53amiconnI tried compiling the rockbox sim on my AMD64 linux box
09:11:58imphasinggack.
09:12:04amiconnIt doesn't even compile - and why?
09:12:35imphasingAre the AMD 64's little or big endian?
09:12:35amiconnbmp2rb uses 'long' to declare the bmp header struct, and that doesn't match reality on AMD64...
09:12:36imphasing=/
09:12:42imphasingHah.
09:13:10amiconnI will change that, hopefully soon
09:13:14imphasingI remember the craze about the Merced processor..
09:13:17amiconnint32_t
09:13:39amiconnAMD64 aka x86-64 is little endian
09:13:46imphasinguint32_t is what I use for all my instructions, and other things like that.
09:13:48imphasingah..
09:14:04imphasingand int32_t for general purpose ints
09:14:13amiconnIt makes sense to use canonical types for general purpose
09:14:26imphasingotherwise they could end up being strange sizes, depending on how the compiler is feeling..
09:14:32amiconn...and explicit size types for when size matters
09:14:37amiconn(like header structs)
09:14:42imphasingAh..
09:15:14amiconnIf you use explicit sizes for general purpose, the code might end up less efficient, depending on the target arch
09:15:21imphasingGood point..
09:15:43imphasingint == long on an IA64?
09:15:54amiconnE.g. (in case this port will be taken up again), the gmini uses a calmrisc16 cpu, which is 16 bit
09:16:15amiconnIf you use an explicit 32 bit int, this is clearly slower
09:16:22imphasingAh, yes..
09:16:30imphasingbut what if your number won't fit in 16 bits?
09:16:34imphasingit'll have to be slower
09:16:44amiconnof course
09:16:57imphasingSuch is the burden of the 16 bit processor I guess
09:17:07amiconnIt's even more strange
09:17:22amiconnNot only it is 16 bit, but it's also a harvard architecture
09:17:29imphasingharvard?
09:17:56amiconnYes, the opposite of 'von Neumann'
09:18:34imphasingInteresting..
09:18:36 Quit einhirn (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
09:18:37amiconnMost CPUs have one address space for code and data, on a harvard CPU code and data addresses are fundamentally diffeent
09:18:38imphasingNever heard of that before..
09:18:52imphasingThat could get slow/complex..
09:19:11amiconnIt's faster when you have to crunch lots of data
09:19:11imphasingI like having all the data inside the opcodes..
09:19:14imphasingah..
09:19:29amiconnMost DSPs have a harvard architecture
09:19:36imphasingCool..
09:20:04amiconnThe gmini is basically running everything on a DSP...
09:20:07imphasingI don't really know much about processor, excepting ARM v4.
09:20:11imphasingCool..
09:20:50amiconnWhat's not so cool is that a gmini port will never support flexible plugins and such
09:21:07amiconnIt has no RAM that can be used for code.
09:21:17imphasingI wonder why they didn't choose to go with something as simple and accepted as an ARM processor
09:21:23amiconnAll code has to go into flash; RAM can only be used for data
09:21:25imphasingThat's annoying..
09:22:04JdGordonany1 got a ati radean vid card?
09:22:06imphasingI would hope that a normal Harvard processor would have separate areas for data and code in the ram, so that things don't get all jumbled..
09:22:19Maximeyes JdGordon, why?
09:22:21imphasingJdGordon: I have one sitting in a corner..
09:22:40amiconnFortunately, all other targets have way more conventional architectures
09:22:44JdGordonany idea where the drivers are on the ati site? i only found the stupid catalyst control center download
09:23:09Maximeunder wich OS ?

09:23:35imphasingThat's not a processor.

09:25:46amiconn(The MAS35xx are the mp3 hardware codecs used in the archos jukeboxes and Ondios)
09:25:58imphasingHmm..
09:26:20JdGordonMaxime: i dled and installed catalyst 6.1 but its still using the xp built in drivers??
09:26:27amiconnThere is no official programming documentation, but an unofficial document describing the DSP core
09:26:40MaximeJdGordon: or else you can try the "omega drivers"
09:26:43imphasingI should read some stuff on DSP's..
09:26:46amiconnOf course it's harvard. Next thing is that it is 20bit (!)
09:26:54imphasingI know absolutely jack about them.

09:27:27amiconn...but the strangest thing is that you have to keep an eye on instruction pipeline sync yourself (!!)
09:27:44imphasingErm..
09:27:50imphasingWhy use a processor like that?
09:28:11MaximeJdGordon: or, uninstall the XP drivers, then install catalyst, then reboot
09:28:18amiconnIt's very energy efficient
09:28:25imphasingAh..
09:28:43amiconnThe MAS3587F can *encode* to mp3 realtime - at a clock of 22..24 MHz (!)
09:29:08imphasingBut..all the peripherals, that might be say, 16 bit, or 32 bit, would have to either take instruction and a halfs, or more than one instruction to operate..
09:29:10imphasinggar..
09:29:15imphasingwow.
09:29:17imphasing22..
09:29:28amiconnIt doesn't have to deal with in & out that much
09:30:08amiconnThe ADC and DAC are built in, and mp3 itself is a bitstream that is handled via SCI or 8 bit parallel
09:30:25imphasingCool..
09:30:32amiconnThere's only internal memory
09:30:35imphasingI wonder if there are any mp3 players that use vector processors..
09:30:50imphasingyou could process sets of bits at the same time
09:31:04imphasingand put them back in order..
09:31:07imphasingor maybe not.

10:25:35hardeephaven't messed with it for a while, but ask away
10:25:48amiconnThere is a patch that allows adding tracks to different playlists, and Linus said that it used the playlist api in a wrong way
10:26:20hardeepi saw the forum post about it
10:26:31hardeepfrom the sounds of it, they removed the playlist calls in the last version
10:26:36amiconnIs the playlist api able to handle more than just the in-RAM playlist, or not?
10:26:57hardeepyeah, it can handle any number of playlists
10:26:59midkayhey, it's hardeep :)
10:27:04amiconnYes. I'm asking in case this means unnecessary code duplication...
10:27:22hardeepthat's how viewing m3u files works
10:27:28midkayoops. i interrupted something. *slips away into the shadows*
10:27:29hardeepit's makes use of the playlist apis
10:27:40hardeepmidkay: hey
10:27:47midkay;)
10:28:43hardeepamiconn: however, for that patch, it's probably easier to do it the way they are −− appending to the end of the playlist
10:29:04hardeepamiconn: the playlist functions are overkill if you're not intending to do any editing

10:53:42linuxstbJdGordon: Feel free to try, but it won't be straightforward. For example, the iPod doens't have up/down buttons. Where appropriate, scrolling (forward/back) on the clickwheel count as up/down, but in other places, it makes more sense to use MENU and PLAY for up/down, with scrolling doing something else.
10:54:18JdGordon:'( bloody apple, always making things difficutl
10:56:51linuxstbI'm not sure we can do better than the current approach - which is to define button mappings in each part of Rockbox - e.g. the TREE_* defines at the top of tree.h You should never check for BUTTON_* directly.

14:32:56tucozgood idea JdGordon had with the yes-no screen. I looked at the pictures, and it really seems like the way to go.
14:33:54slimxlinuxstb, patch sent
14:34:21amiconnIf it's only possible to control it by moving the marker and select, the no.
14:34:38amiconnThe simple method with just 2 different buttons is faster
14:34:41 Quit damaki (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
14:36:37tucozIt's simpler with button assignments, but as it is now, that is not very good.
14:36:45amiconnWhy?
14:36:53tucozlanguage problems
14:37:10amiconnThe only real problem is that nobody went forward to implementing l10n v2
14:37:12tucozI press select, but the text states play for instance
14:37:27tucozI know, but that could be a long time coming
14:37:53amiconnI think this is something needed before an iriver/iPod/whatever new target release
14:38:17tucozdoes v2 include separate languages for plugins as well?
14:38:39amiconnIt's one of the goals, yes
14:39:15amiconnThe idea is that the language file can contain multiple sections, and a plugin would load its appropriate section
14:39:33amiconnAlternatively, a plugin should be able to have its own language file
14:40:08tucozI see. Well, would it be an ok to solution until then to have the possibity to select yes-no by moving a selector, and keep the key-bindings as they are?
14:40:42amiconnThe key bindings clash with a selector
14:40:56tucozLike bind yes to play, and no to stop for instance. and have select as the 'enter' button

14:41:29tucozon the irivers it should work, but it's not a very good solution.
14:42:36tucozbut as you say, v2 is one major step in the right direction. But, I have to say I like widgets. :) Especially when selecting yes, no.
14:44:09amiconnI prefer quick and reliable operation over widgets
14:44:36amiconnAny additional button press makes blind operation harder
14:45:22tucozunless the action is consequent. That is, all yes-no screens are handled the same. It's just a habit after all.
14:45:46amiconnThat's the problem with a yes/no selector.
14:46:15amiconnThe default may be different, and for quick operation different defaults make sense
14:46:16tucoznot if it is handled the same for all yes-no. That is do default to no for instance.
14:46:32linuxstbtucoz: That depends on the question.
14:46:52amiconnMost of the time 'yes' as default makes sense, but not for dangerous things like 'delete'
14:47:09tucozlinuxstb: yes, but you could voice a yes-no.
14:47:25amiconn...and since the default can be different, you have to check (or know) the particular default for blind operation
14:47:47amiconnVoicing isn't always possible (e.g. during playback on archos)
14:48:19 Quit mikearthur (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
14:48:30linuxstbOne solution would be switching to using LEFT/RIGHT to indicate yes/no - these are the only two buttons consistently available on all targets.
14:48:42tucozamiconn: I agree with the quick operation. But, I do not think it's that much of an issue. Anyway, whatever the outcome will be I think the curent behaviour must change.
14:49:02tucoz(on the irivers at least)
14:49:44amiconnMaybe it would make sense to use an icon for indicating the 'yes' button
14:50:02amiconnEven if the button has printed text, this text doesn't need to be localised
14:50:21amiconn...as the actual printed button text is never localised
14:50:24tucozok, I thought that was the key here.
14:50:29tucozaha, I see.
14:50:43slimxlinuxstb, did it work ?
14:50:58amiconn'NAVI' on H300 is always 'NAVI', even in korea or japan
14:51:48tucozamiconn: I got you wrong. I thougt you meant printed as in the text in the widget :D
14:52:14linuxstbslimx: Yes, that applied cleanly.
14:53:02amiconnE.g. "Delete file? [NAVI]: yes, any other: cancel" (english, H300)
14:53:17tucozBut, by binding LEFT-RIGHT to 'yes'-'no' would make it dangerous on joystick-targets
14:53:33amiconnand "Datei lschen? |>: ja, andere: abbrechen" (deutsch, recorder)
14:53:58tucozamiconn: wonder what we should call navi on the h1xx's
14:53:59amiconnThe icons should of course be actual icons.
14:54:24tucozAfaik that doesn't have a name except select
14:54:39tucozoh, I got it
14:54:44FebsI've been calling NAVI "joystick press" in the documentation.

15:25:58BoD[]is the ipod port ready yet ? :)
15:26:19slimxwhich one ?
15:26:25slimx3g or 4g ?
15:26:39BoD[]hrmm video .. is this 5g?

15:28:00BoD[]is video == 5g ?
15:28:04linuxstbjaebird: Are you trying to build Rockbox itself?
15:28:14linuxstbBoD[]: Yes
15:28:19slimxjaebird, build the bootloader only
15:28:28jaebirdoops...
15:28:29jaebirdok
15:28:38BoD[]ok so I guess I'll have to wait a bit then ? :)
15:28:48slimxi'll check the error jaebird
15:29:18jaebirdlinuxstb: what approach should I use to attempt to get the lcd into the 4g 2bpp
15:30:42linuxstbjaebird: You need to compare slimx's code in lcd-ipod.c with the ipodlinux lcd driver, and fix all the places where the 3g and 4g drivers are different.
15:31:10jaebirdsounds like fun :) btw: 3g bootloader built fine on mine
15:31:18slimxjaebird
15:31:35imphasing_slimx: How do I get a *.bin file after I do a make for the bootloader?

15:32:17slimxbootloader/bootloader.bin
15:32:50jaebirdslimx: hmm?
15:32:59linuxstbslimx: You shouldn't define and use IPOD_RTC in lcd-ipod.c - you should use the USEC_TIMER variable you defined in system.h See the existing parts of lcd-ipod.c for details - you shouldn't need to define 2bpp specific versions of the timer_check function, the existing version will work on all ipods.
15:33:30linuxstbAlso, none of the "definitions" near the top of lcd-ipod.c are needed - so you can delete them.

15:46:11Cassandralinuxstb, well there's a couple of targets I don't think it's sensible to compile a manual for. h100, and recorder8mb
15:46:46CassandraSo I'd like the Makefile to just not try to build a manual for these targets.
15:47:15 Quit Rondom ("essen")
15:47:55linuxstbHow does the Makefile work for the manual? Does it compile every manual, or is there the equivalent of the tools/configure script?
15:48:41CassandraWell the 'make manual' target is created in tools/configure. Which does suggest one possible answer.
15:49:42linuxstbI would just add an extra option to the type of build - "Normal, Devel, Simulator, Bootloader, Manual"
15:49:42CassandraThat launches a separate Makefile in the manual directory
15:50:37CassandraHmmm. Not really sure I want another set of build directories for manuals.

15:59:44imphasinglcd-16bit.c?
16:00
16:00:15peturthe driver itself will be lcd-xxx where xxx is the target
16:00:26slimxlcd-2bit-linear
16:00:33linuxstbimphasing: If you're talking about the iPod 2-bit greyscale driver, then it's partly in lcd-2bit-linear.c and partly lcd-ipod.c
16:00:34imphasingAh, ok.
16:00:34slimxfor high level instructions
16:00:42slimxand lcd-ipod.c
16:01:19slimxfor ipod 3g low-level lcd code
16:01:31slimx:)
16:01:37linuxstbpetur: We're trying to move towards splitting the high-level lcd_framebuffer manipulation code and the low-level LCD drivers - e.g. the H300 is split between lcd-16bit.c and lcd-h300.c. The color iPods also use lcd-16bit.c but the low-level code is in lcd-ipod.c
16:02:08peturgreat... I was just typing from memory, haven't looked in that part for some time ;)
16:02:27linuxstbYes, it changed when the h300 and iPods entered CVS
16:02:49imphasingslimx: What do you suppose there is left to do, for the rest of rockbox?
16:04:11slimxwhoo so much
16:04:13slimx:p
16:04:24slimxtry a normal build and see

16:05:01peturlinuxstb: do the ipods also feature line-in or mic?
16:05:12slimxbut there's some work to do arround the button driver
16:05:37imphasingpetur: You can use the headphone port as a line in
16:05:52imphasingslimx: It'll boot the full rockbox?
16:06:17peturwow... special connector or hardare switched?
16:06:25petur*hardware
16:06:31imphasingNope, just software
16:06:39linuxstbpetur: As imphasing says, the headphone socket sort of doubles as a line-in, but I don't know the details. There is a real line-in hidden in the dock connector, but the Apple firmware doesn't use it.
16:07:16linuxstbAlso, no-one seems to commercially sell an adapter to make the line-in available from the dock connector - only the line-out.
16:07:53peturthey must have some electronic switch inside that's controlled via software. or is it a feature of the audio chip
16:08:31slimxnew patch sent linuxstb i've cleaned lcd-ipod.c
16:08:34linuxstbAs I said, I haven't looked. You can get a datasheet for the codec (or at least a very similar one) here: http://www.wolfsonmicro.com/products/digital_audio/codecs/WM8971/

16:22:32linuxstbYou don't need a full ipodlinux installation - just putting a kernel on your FAT32 partition will be enough to test Rockbox. The kernel should start, display some messages, and then complain about there being no root filesystem.

16:44:55amiconnHuh?
16:45:09amiconnDoes it use the mono format of the other targets?
16:45:14linuxstbYes

16:45:49 Join perplexity [0] (i=heh19511@217.165.99.160)
16:45:51linuxstbYes, but IMO, it's the best approach until we adapt the rest of Rockbox to cope with multiple mono bitmap formats.
16:45:58slimxi'll check
16:46:16linuxstbThere are still a lot of hard-coded mono bitmaps, plus the fonts of course.
16:46:23amiconnBtw, we need a method in the bitmap build system to specify creation of mask bitmaps
16:47:11linuxstbBut we should be able to implement horizontally packed native bitmaps immediately.
16:47:37amiconn...and it has to be possible to build the mask bitmaps in both orientations as well
16:48:09amiconnFor the fonts, my first implementation will transpose on load
16:48:26linuxstbamiconn: One approach would be to use #FF00FF in the .bmp files, and then have a convention where bitmapname_mask is the mask for bitmapname
16:48:40*Philip_0729 wonders about the posibilities of vertical peakmeters...
16:48:41linuxstbBut we also need to start creating the .h file(s) as well.
16:48:47amiconnyes
16:49:09linuxstbThere's far too much work to do in Rockbox....
16:49:16slimxthat's ok
16:49:19slimx:)
16:49:31slimxyou can commit it
16:49:38amiconnSomeone should start to convert the hard coded bitmaps into convert-during-build BMPs
16:49:42linuxstbslimx: How much of lcd-2bit-linear.c have you implemented?
16:50:08slimxmost part of it
16:50:16linuxstbamiconn: I assume you have no objections to the filename lcd-2bit-linear.c? Any better suggestions before I commit it?
16:50:35amiconn'linear' isn't really descriptive
16:50:53linuxstbThat's my doubt as well. But "horizontallypacked" is a bit long....
16:51:04amiconnimho 'horizontal' would be better, but I don't have a strong opinion
16:51:17amiconnor 'horz'
16:51:50slimxnative bitmap need some improvements
16:52:29linuxstbYes, horz sounds good to me. slimx - are you happy with lcd-2bit-horz.c ?
16:52:46slimxyes np
16:52:58linuxstbslimx: For the native bitmaps, they should be stored horizontally packed. Are you using vertically packed native bitmaps at the moment?

19:25:12Therxk, i'd been looking to do a db that was based around the existing iPod system (on ipods obviously), but linuxstb suggested i'd be better off working on yours...
19:26:09Slasheriah, hmm.. maybe i will create a patch so you can check what it looks like at the moment
19:27:11linuxstbSlasheri: I was thinking that for iPods, some users will have a large number of files already indexes in the itunesdb - so tagcache could be optimised to read the data from there instead of scanning the tags in the files.
19:27:49Slasherilinuxstb: yes, true if we want to implement some support for the ipod db also
19:27:50linuxstbThe itunesdb is probably a more accurate source than the file tags as well in those cases.
19:27:58Slasheriit should be quite easy to import it to tagcache
19:28:39Therxyeh, i did a program that scans through the itunesdb and gets most information from it, in about 1hour so...

19:29:20Therxnot particularly hard
19:29:48Therxis there an interface for inserting stuff into the tagcache (haven't really looked at the code, sorry)
19:31:13linuxstbslimx: Are you around? All your changes should now be in CVS, apart from bootloader/ipod.c
19:31:14 Quit Maxime ()
19:32:13linuxstbjaebird: If you try the latest CVS, you will now get an iPod 4G (Greyscale) option in the configure script. The bootloader builds OK, and so does Rockbox itself, but the plugins don't all compile yet.
19:32:28linuxstbI have no idea if it works though....
19:32:50SlasheriTherx: i am now creating the patch so you can check the code soon :)
19:33:26linuxstbSlasheri: Any more thoughts on the problems that is causing the early USB mode to crash the ipods?
19:33:49Therxk
19:33:57Slasherilinuxstb: haven't had any time to code in weekend (i was in Helsinki). But i will fix that bug soon
19:34:22linuxstbTherx: When you do make your changes, make sure you use #ifdefs to make the itunes parsing code optional. We obviously only want to include it on iPods.
19:34:41Therxyeh ok
19:34:54amiconnI have a suspicion what causes the bad battery runtime
19:35:05linuxstbAre you talking H300?
19:35:24*petur gives all his attention
19:35:41amiconnThe codec thread seems to not sleep in situations where it has to wait
19:35:59amiconn..and if not all threads call sleep(), the CPU won't sleep at all
19:36:16Slasheriamiconn: hmm, are you sure?
19:36:54amiconnThe very first codec I checked (a52) does this:
19:37:01amiconn do {
19:37:01amiconn ci->yield();
19:37:01amiconn } while (!ci->pcmbuf_insert_split(&samples[0], &samples[256],
19:37:01DBUGEnqueued KICK amiconn
19:37:01amiconn 256*sizeof(sample_t)));
19:37:29Slasherihmm, it should do it that way
19:37:38amiconnThis looks like it merely yields instead of sleeping
19:37:44Slasheripcmbuf_insert_split should sleep when necessary
19:37:51amiconnah
19:38:01Slasheriif sleeping always inside codec thread, could make the decoding too slow
19:38:09Slasherior it will make
19:40:00amiconnAn idea is to trace which threads call sleep() how often, and how often the CPU was sleeping when the timer interrupt occurs

19:55:26slimxlinuxstb, that's ok it work on the 3g
19:55:43Cassandramidgey34, I suspect it was there because at one time there was an idea that the remote and main displays would work independently.

19:56:39midgey34alright

19:57:44lostlogicSlasheri: well, the refactoring level in the pcmbuf and attached code segments is rather high, but I think it finally doesn't suck. This may also reduce the need for several of the workarounds in playback.c, but we can look at that later.

20:57:52yeahxI think putting it on that stupid archos you just had to put it in a folder
20:58:31Learlostlogic: I'm pretty sure it is used, but it can easily be removed with minor codec changes...
20:59:19lostlogicLear: I'll probably to that then when I tackle playback.c −− I had started to do both in one large attack, but it got to be too many changes, so I dropped the playback.c parts and focussed on the pcmbuf for now.

21:00
21:00:19Learlostlogic: also, macros to hide code is generally frowned upon in Rockbox...
21:01:34lostlogicLear: Hate having the same code repeated 3-5 times because then if there is some change to logic that effects one, it often has to be made in all the places... better solution?
21:02:16LearNot really, just wanted to mention it... :)

21:04:25linuxstblostlogic: I've just tried an ALAC track and it repeatedly freezes after 36 seconds. Checking the audio thread debug screen, the pcmbuf display goes off the scale - up to about 1MB before dropping quickly back down to 0 and then freezing.

21:34:52 Quit Strath (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
21:35:00lostlogiclinuxstb: the freezing appears to be unique to ipod, and it's mostly a reporting problem (I think) in the debug screen due to my conversion of the pcmbuf to almost exclusively unsigned math
21:35:04lostlogicBger: hit me
21:35:39Bgeram i reading right that we think that the battery is *discharging* when the charger is plugged in and the charging_state() returns false

21:36:04Bger(see powermgmt.c, lines 529-540)
21:36:19linuxstblostlogic: Why is unsigned math a problem? As soon as the buffer goes over 512KB, I get occasional corruptions in the audio before the pcm buffer empties and then playback stops.
21:36:25lostlogicBger: it's not that we _think_ that it's discharging, simply that it is not charging
21:37:32Bgerbut in this case at least h300 runs *on charger* iirc, without discharging the battery
21:38:07lostlogicBger: that is correct, perhaps need to add another state other than the various charge states and discharging.
21:38:19Bgerisn't the needed state the "TRICKLE" one ?
21:38:29Bger(which is already present)
21:38:58lostlogiclinuxstb: debug_menu treats audiobuffer_free (which is a size_t) as an int... maybe not hte problem, but a potential spot. .. I'll figure it out
21:39:07josh_linuxstb: Rockbox freezes on my 4g
21:39:16josh_progressbar, "Checksum OK, starting Rockbox", freeze.
21:39:23lostlogicBger: it's not trickling, the charger is disabled, and the battery is electrically disconnected from both charger and unit power
21:40:26Bgerok, 10x
21:41:34Bgertrickle is for the cases when the unit runs from the battery even when the charger is plugged in ?
21:41:49linuxstbjosh_: OK, thanks. There was somebody here earlier who was keen on getting Rockbox running on his 4g, so I'll just wait for him to debug it.
21:42:15lostlogicBger: trickle means that the charger is trickle charging the battery −− this is a state which is good on NiMH and NiCD (iirc) but would damage LiPoly/LiIon
