#rockbox log for 2006-02-06

00:01:51saratogahow useful is the 3G port likely to be?
00:02:01saratogafrom what I hear, the 5002 is pretty slow
00:02:08 Quit S3TUP ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
00:02:34linuxstbWe won't know until we test it.
00:03:51saratogawhat was the issue with the 5002 anyway?
00:03:53linuxstbThe slow part of the 5002 is the cache, but Rockbox is optimised to put time-critical code and data in fast internal RAM - which isn't affected by the cache.
00:03:59saratogaI read something about it having very slow access to main memory
00:04:08saratogahaha
00:04:11saratogathanks
00:04:34saratogaoh you mean the Icache is slow, not the DRAM?
00:05:18linuxstbThis is what the ipodlinux Wiki says: "The 5002 has a "broken" cache (1 wait state per access for program or data, meaning you effectively have half the effective clock rate when running code from external memory). This means that running code that doesn't fit in the internal 96kbyte SRAM of the player is very inefficient, both in terms of CPU cycles and power."
00:06:18saratogaok, that sounds like the i-cache then since there is no d-cache
00:06:38 Join Paul_The_Nerd [0] (n=Paul_The@cpe-66-68-93-2.austin.res.rr.com)
00:06:53linuxstbThe ipods have a unified cache.
00:07:03saratogawhat?
00:07:13saratogai thought there was no caching at all of data
00:07:15imphasingThere is a small 96k cache directly on the processor though, that is very fast.
00:07:28saratogathats the i-ram, not cache (I think?)
00:07:35imphasingEh..it's possible.
00:07:36imphasing:D
00:07:40linuxstbsaratoga: Yes, each of the two ARM cores has its own 8KB unified (code and data) cache.
00:07:46saratogaoh ok
00:08:13linuxstbPlus there is 96KB of fast IRAM which isn't cached (it doesn't need to be).
00:08:19 Quit Therx ("May be back later")
00:08:21imphasingAh..
00:08:26linuxstbBoth cores can access that IRAM.
00:09:43saratogais there any documentation at all for the ARM cores on the 5002?
00:09:47amiconnAny idea about the cache organisation?
00:09:52saratogaI've never done ARM and need to brush up on it
00:09:59imphasingYeah, there's quite a bit of info out there.
00:10:07linuxstbYes - there is lots of info - they are standard arm7tdmi cores
00:10:07amiconn(direct mapped/set associative/fully associative ?)
00:10:13imphasingThere's some really freat pamphlets about it, that have everything you need to know.
00:10:14Bagdersaratoga: its an arm7tdmi core, and there's docs for that on arm.com
00:10:17imphasings/freat/great/
00:10:18saratogais tha core standized?
00:10:25linuxstbamiconn: I have no idea.
00:10:36imphasingstandardized?
00:10:43saratogaIE: all arm7tdmi cores have the same latencies, etc
00:10:49imphasingAh..
00:10:52imphasingI'm not sure..
00:11:29josh_http://www.get-linux.org/~oremanj/t/arm7tdmi.pdf <−− for your reading pleasure
00:11:35imphasingI've got a ~250 page doc on the arm7tdmi that explains everything in great depth.
00:11:37imphasingThat's the one.
00:11:38imphasing:D
00:11:42imphasingjosh_++
00:11:44saratogasweet
00:15:25josh_btw, TDMI stands for Thumb/Debugger/Multiplier/ICE
00:15:50imphasing(!)
00:15:51josh_or maybe /Interrupt
00:15:53imphasingIt's ICE?
00:15:58imphasingAh..
00:16:05josh_depending on who you ask
00:16:20imphasingHeh..

00:21:07linuxstbsaratoga: I assume you have a 3G?
00:21:42saratogayeah
00:22:23linuxstbPlanning to help with Rockbox? :)
00:22:40saratogaI'd like to
00:22:57saratogajust limited on time until I graduate in a couple months
00:23:06saratogaso I'm just reading for now
00:23:40imphasinggraduate == college?
00:23:55saratogayeah
00:24:04imphasingCS?
00:24:04imphasing:D
00:24:19saratogaI'm doubleing in CS and CE
00:24:29imphasingAh, cool.
00:24:44saratogarockbox is the kind of thing that interests me :)
00:24:56imphasingYeah, me too.
00:25:12imphasingMostly because it's a proprietary OS
00:25:17imphasingWhich is beyond cool.
00:25:20Bagderand I'm only here to look cool ;-)
00:25:40josh_imphasing: proprietary != unique
00:25:56josh_Rockbox is open-source, definitely *NOT* proprietary.
00:25:57imphasing=./
00:26:04imphasingNo?
00:26:04josh_And, in general, proprietary is *NOT* "beyond cool'.
00:26:15josh_Proprietary is something like Windows.
00:26:24saratogai think its interesting just because its simple enough that you can understand what its doing (well aside from a lot of the audio stuff)
00:26:28imphasingIt doesn't have to mean "commercial" though
00:26:36josh_imphasing: actually, it does.
00:26:39imphasingOh man..
00:26:41imphasingYou're right.
00:26:48imphasingJust googled it.
00:26:49imphasing:(
00:26:50josh_proprietary means one entity owns it and controls it
00:26:53saratogahaha
00:26:53imphasingyeah
00:26:55josh_which is not the case with open-source software
00:27:21hyarionjosh_ 1, imphasing 0
00:27:49imphasingmore like, josh_ 2385 x 10 ^ 3785, imphasing 0
00:27:56hyarion:)
00:28:09josh_haha
00:29:20saratogafor now i'll keep an eye on the 3G progress
00:29:28saratogahopefully I'll be able to start playing with it soon
00:29:29josh_(10 ^ 3785) is 0b111011001001 xor 0b000000001010, which is 0b111011000011, which is 3779 :P
00:29:45imphasing=/
00:29:50hyarionbtw, I looked at the data sheets for HD66789 is it really compatible with HD66735?
00:29:50imphasingYou suck.
00:30:19imphasingIn this case, '^' denotes the exponential operator.
00:30:19imphasing:P
00:30:20hyarionI read it was on either ipl or rockbox, but it looks like there is differeces
00:30:24josh_ah :P
00:31:00amiconn.
00:31:11 Quit Rondom ("I'm leaving on a jetplane, don't know when I'll be back again...")
00:31:17hydrahead3G started working? Is there gonna be a greyscale 4g soon for testing?
00:31:29imphasingThe bootloader is mostly working.
00:31:48saratogatheres a binary posted an hour or two ago for the 4G, but it crashes
00:31:59saratogaso probably soon if someone with a 4G starts testing
00:32:08imphasingThis binary is just the bootloader though, right?
00:32:23saratogai assumed it was all of rockbox, since I think it finally compiles
00:32:30saratogabut I didn't check since I don't have a 4G
00:32:34imphasingAh..
00:32:38imphasingWas it from cvs?
00:32:53hydraheadwell i can test but I dont know the first thing about debugging software :(
00:33:07linuxstbhydrahead: Can you read C?
00:33:39hydraheadnot really, only messed with basic and pascal in highschool
00:34:06imphasinglinuxstb: Did something largish happen while I was sleeping? As in, getting the "normal" build to compile for 3G/4G?
00:34:12linuxstbThe 4G greyscale port needs someone to compare the code in Rockbox with the code in ipodlinux and fix any differences. At the moment, the 4G greyscale build is just an iPod Photo build using the 3G's LCD driver.
00:34:39linuxstbBut I would guess it's just the LCD driver that has any differences.
00:35:20linuxstbimphasing: Yes. slimx is currently debugging the 3G build (it crashes after displaying the Rockbox splash logo). The 4G build crashes even earlier than that. But they both compile.
00:35:25hydraheadsince the processors are the same, thats a good guess
00:35:26imphasingjosh_: Do you know what file the LCD driver is in the ipl tree?
00:35:32imphasinglinuxstb: Woo!
00:35:41imphasingIs it in CVS?
00:35:43josh_imphasing: linux/arch/armnommu/mach-ipod/fb.c I believe
00:35:48imphasingAh, ok.
00:35:51josh_linuxstb: yeah, 4g crashes before doing *anything*
00:35:53linuxstbimphasing: It's in various places - I use the one josh_ just mentioned.
00:35:56josh_well, freezes
00:36:08josh_linuxstb: there's also some LCD initing you need to do
00:36:14imphasingI'll poke it with my ipod and see what happens.
00:36:17hydraheadlinuxstb: and what do you need to view C ?
00:36:28saratogatext editor
00:36:34josh_linuxstb: check in ipodloader2/fb.c
00:36:38saratogaon Windows, Textpad is pretty good
00:36:39linuxstbjosh_: Yes, I noticed some differences - but I'm just going to leave it to a 4g owner to fix.
00:36:40josh_at the very end (fb_init())
00:37:57hydraheadaha, well I guess that I could try to see any syntax differences but i wouldnt know how to fix them since i propapbly dont understand them
00:38:29imphasingHeh, leave it to me to bork my whole tree, and forget to make a backup before I start editing things..
00:38:32linuxstbI'll have a quick look at the lcd code now then, and fix any obvious differences.
00:39:32imphasingAugh, lots of hunk failed's on slimx's latest patch..
00:39:39hydraheadace! anyone working on the variable cpu speed?
00:39:42slimxi've corrected the lcd driver
00:39:53slimxnow rockbox logo is nice to see
00:39:58slimx:)
00:40:00imphasing:)
00:40:13imphasingYour patch doesn't apply cleanly though
00:40:14imphasing:(
00:40:30slimximphasing, there is no patch at the moment
00:40:45slimxnow consider the ipod 3g patch as closed
00:40:49slimxall is in cvs
00:41:19imphasingYay!

00:48:03saratogawell yeah, but i just updated it today, and it still seemed to pull a lot of stuff through
00:48:05amiconn(both mechanical and electrical)
00:48:10saratogai mean it should only grab a handful of things right
00:48:48Bagdersaratoga: no, you get the whole lot
00:48:49saratogaand I get a lot of "it is in the way" messages as I go
00:48:53Bagderoh
00:48:57Bagderthat is weird
00:48:59*amiconn is doing fancy asm stuff
00:49:16amiconnLots of similar code, have to take care to not mix up things
00:49:17saratogafor instance: "cvs update: move away uisimulator/sdl/uisdl.c; it is in the way"
00:49:25CassandraAha! Victory!
00:49:40linuxstbjosh_: Can you try this build? The LCD driver was completely wrong before - I'm not surprised nothing happened. http://www.davechapman.f2s.com/rockbox/rockbox-4g.zip
00:49:43*amiconn wants faaaast scrolling :)
00:49:44CassandraNow does anyone know where I can find a high res version of the Rockbox logo?
00:49:59Bagderyes
00:50:01Bagderhang on
00:50:09linuxstbI only know this one: http://www.rockbox.org/rockbox400.png

00:51:08CassandraProbably doesn't help that I've never really understood make in detail.
00:51:14CassandraThanks Bagder
00:51:36CassandraDon't we have one in a lossless form?
00:51:52Bagderwe might somewhere
00:52:18CassandraThat would be better, if it's locateable.
00:52:28linuxstbhydrahead: You could try this bootloader - http://www.davechapman.g2s.com/rockbox/bootloader-4g.bin
00:52:42CassandraI can easily convert that jpeg to png, but it kind of defeats the point of using png.
00:53:06hydraheadumm ok, just point me to some sort of an istruction for installing it

01:20:37*Cassandra ponders whether to have "recorderv2" and "recorderfm" be seperate targets in the manual build system
01:20:57Cassandra(Since some V2s have the radio installed anyway.)
01:21:50LinusNCassandra: http://www.rockbox.org/tshirt.old/rockboxHires.tif
01:22:05CassandraIs there any difference between the Ondio SP and the Ondio FM other than the lack of a radio in the SP?
01:22:16CassandraThanks, Linus.
01:22:16LinusNsp can't record
01:22:31LinusNiirc
01:22:36Moosyep
01:23:15CassandraHmmm. I'm trying to work out whether to combine those as a target too.
01:23:32CassandraSince FM is just a superset of SP, that might be workable.
01:25:25linuxstbhydrahead: I've read reports that those installation instructions work fine with firewire as well.

01:26:37*Cassandra decides that it's easier to move from less platforms to more than the other way around.
01:27:04CassandraFor now I'll keep both pairs as single targets. We can change later if that seems sensible.
01:27:05 Quit webguest33 (Client Quit)
01:27:11amiconnYes, Ondio SP can't record and has no radio. Other than that, it's the same as Ondio FM from a user's view
01:27:23LinusNCassandra: oops - http://www.rockbox.org/tshirt.old/rockboxHighRes.tif
01:27:31amiconn(only visible difference from the outside is the missing line in socket)
01:28:18CassandraRight. Which you wouldn't expect if you can't record anyway.
01:29:33amiconnThe fun thing about the MAS3539F is that it actually *can* record, just the MP3 encoder is missing in the ROM.
01:29:48amiconn...and archos even connected the parallel port buffer to the MAS.
01:30:00DMJCheh this should build in like 3 seconds
01:30:22amiconnSo if someone mounts the missing microphone and/or line in socket, it would be possible to record with the PCM codec
01:30:28CassandraBasically I think we need a new manual platform if there's either different keymappings, unique features in all models, or different screen shots.

01:32:23slimxyes
01:32:27hydraheadso this original bootpartition bin it made is gonna stay on the ipod?
01:32:34josh_Cassandra: you can use \if and stuff
01:33:00josh_something like
01:33:12Cassandrajosh_: Yeah, I know, thanks. It's more a question of working out which platforms need to be different at the moment.
01:33:14slimxnow i can debug the rockbox apps/main.c (init )
01:33:34linuxstbhydrahead: "bootpartition.bin" is a backup of the boot partition on your iPod. The Rockbox bootloader is installed to that partition, which is why it's a good idea to keep that file.

01:35:42josh_ah, ok
01:35:51josh_didn't even realize there *was* a package for that
01:35:57hydraheadi now ran this ipod_fw command, is it ment for it not to show any output like: done or something?

01:41:43josh_ok
01:41:51josh_linuxstb: backlight came on for a few seconds, Rockbox logo was displayed briefly
01:41:55josh_now the screen is blank
01:42:08linuxstbThat's not bad....
01:42:21linuxstbDoes anything happen if you press MENU ?
01:42:28josh_no
01:42:34josh_but I have a suspicion it's a contrast problem
01:42:47JdGordonhmm... so.. ive been waiting for the wrong versino to work :p my friend has the b&w 4g, not 3g.. hows that 1 going?
01:42:47josh_because you can barely see the edge of the screen
01:43:04linuxstbThat sounds possible. Any idea what the default contrast should be set to?
01:43:09josh_and the distinction there depends on the contrast, and if contrast is too low you won't be able to see anything
01:43:12hydraheadwhere is the bin file supposed to be?
01:43:21hydraheadin the root?
01:43:28josh_linuxstb: I don't know what the range is raw... the iPL interface is 0-128 and 96 gives good results.

01:43:39hydraheadahaa
01:43:40hydraheadok
01:44:03hydraheades its there, sorry :)
01:44:17linuxstbjosh_: OK, thanks.
01:45:01hydraheadnow under e) should i replace color with 4g?
01:45:01imphasingslimx: New patch?
01:45:01imphasing:D
01:45:27josh_linuxstb: lcd_cmd_and_data(0x4, 0x4, contrast);
01:45:42linuxstbjosh_: Maybe it isn't a contrast problem though - if you can see the Rockbox logo, then the contrast should be OK. Unless Rockbox then changes it....
01:45:52josh_I think it might be that RB changes it.
01:46:03josh_during LCD init or something
01:46:17linuxstbThe logo is displayed after the lcd init....
01:46:21josh_hrm
01:46:23josh_idk
01:46:27linuxstbBut let me check something.
01:46:31josh_ok, cool
01:47:09imphasingHrm.
01:47:14imphasingpatch doesn't apply cleanly..
01:47:15imphasing=/
01:47:22hydraheadlinuxstb: sorry to bug you again: how should i type the command for this bootloader? just change it to 4g instead of nano or color?
01:47:24linuxstbYes, Rockbox itself has a contrast setting, and that is wired-up to the ipod's lcd_set_contrast() function. And I think the default value is 40....
01:47:33josh_ack.
01:47:36josh_that might be a problem.
01:47:39josh_40 is almost invisible.
01:47:53linuxstbhydrahead: Yes.
01:48:21linuxstbIn fact, the default contrast is 28....
01:48:24josh_yes, the arg to that 0x4 command is indeed 0 (low) to 127 (high)

01:59:51imphasingAnd if you feel like doing something with the 3G, I can test for you.
01:59:55linuxstbThe code is trivial - it's just the exact opposite of reading the RTC registers. In the kernel it's in pcf50605.c (I think).
02:00
02:00:42linuxstbimphasing: No, I'm leaving the 3G for slimx. I'll commit my changes when it's either working or I've exhausted my ideas.

02:32:25Paul_The_NerdI thought a goal of it *was* performance improvement?
02:32:34lostlogicIt's very close, my code uses memory more effectively...
02:32:41linuxstbI thought the goal was simplification...
02:32:48lostlogicmain goal was improving structure
02:32:55lostlogicperformance is a hopeful side effect of that :)
02:33:30lostlogicPaul_The_Nerd: you interested in testing the latest patch I just posted with voice?
02:33:57Paul_The_Nerdlostlogic: Sure, why not.
02:34:04Paul_The_NerdH120, iPod Nano, or both?
02:34:29lostlogicPaul_The_Nerd: whichever you feel like
02:34:43lostlogiclinuxstb says it's broken anytime playback needs to stop on ipod
02:35:21Paul_The_NerdThe link you posted is the patch I need?
02:36:04lostlogicyeah
02:40:38Paul_The_NerdOkay, I'll let you know how it goes.
02:42:20linuxstblostlogic: gapless playback is still flawless....
02:42:28linuxstb(with FLAC)
02:42:53CassandraHardeep posted a gapless fix for MP3. Wonder if it worked.
02:46:11BHSPitLappydo the mp3's have to have a special flag
02:46:20Paul_The_NerdYes
02:46:38BHSPitLappywell the only music I have where gapless is necessary is AAC actually
02:46:44Paul_The_NerdBHSPitLappy: Basically, I think LAME is the only encoder that does it, as far as I know. For MP3s.
02:46:54BHSPitLappylame's what I use.
02:47:02Paul_The_NerdAnd of course, the player has to read the tags.
02:48:13BHSPitLappyany slackware users here?
02:48:24lostlogiclinuxstb: I'm wondering about putting a call to dma_stop() as the last line in fiq()
02:48:30Paul_The_Nerdlostlogic: Same freezes it had before for voice on h120
02:48:56lostlogicPaul_The_Nerd: gah! so if you are using voice menus, after a few menus it frezes the player, or stops playing them?
02:49:02Paul_The_NerdFreezes the player
02:49:22lostlogicPaul_The_Nerd: hmmmmmmmmmmmm
02:49:50Paul_The_NerdSoft freeze though. If you hold stop long enough, you can still shut off
02:50:44Paul_The_NerdAnd, I guess voice menus aren't enabled on iPod yet.
02:51:08BHSPitLappywhat a weird hummer commercial
02:51:15lostlogicBHSPitLappy: yes!
02:51:30linuxstbPaul_The_Nerd: I haven't disabled voice menus afaik. But I haven't tested them.
02:51:44BHSPitLappylostlogic: eh?
02:51:54lostlogicBHSPitLappy: it was weird... my gf and I were just saying so
02:52:02BHSPitLappylol
02:53:42Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb: Well, they certainly aren't reading with lostlogic's build, at least. At all. No freezes on them, at least. ;-). Lemme try with a normal build
02:54:48linuxstblostlogic: I tried adding that dma_stop(), but it doesn't change anything.
02:55:21lostlogiclinuxstb: :(
02:55:41BHSPitLappyhahaa

02:55:51linuxstblostlogic: Is ipod playback the only thing stopping you from committing it?
02:55:59lostlogiclinuxstb: well that and voice menus now
02:56:15lostlogicI should download a set of voice menus so I can try them

03:30:58lostlogicin preparation for making voice work when pcm is paused, anyone mind if I allocate an extra 8k dedicated voice buffer?
03:33:11Paul_The_Nerdyeahx: Well, the menu system can be read aloud. If you run a script available on the site (and have Text to Speech support enabled in windows) or if you prepare speech files for each file, you can have it read out filenames while browsing. Otherwise you can command it to spell them, or just tell you the number (3 for third file in the folder, etc)
03:33:37Paul_The_NerdThe voice files available on the website right now for the menus are a little out of date though, so not all menu entries will be supported.

03:36:18kkurbjundid someone get doom running as a viewer?
03:43:24ashridahkkurbjun: people were looking into it, but we were hindered by not having an actual copy that can be compile :)
03:43:53JdGordonbny hindered... u mean thrown into a brick wall...
03:44:05kkurbjunashridah: what was wrong with compiling what is online?
03:44:27kkurbjunI don't think that making doom a viewer is the proper way to approach it
03:44:30ashridahkkurbjun: it failed :)
03:44:50ashridahkkurbjun: it is if you want to use a PWAD or IWAD :)
03:44:56kkurbjunashridah: where, I would like to correct the problem
03:45:25kkurbjunif you would like to load individually made levels that depend on doom1 or 2 it would make a mess though
03:45:28ashridahof course, since you should be able to add multiple PWAD's, it'd be nice if it could be done within the plugin, by the sounds of it

03:46:26kkurbjunthe other problem is that loading multiple pwad's won't work right now
03:46:39kkurbjunthe realloc code has amnesia
03:47:41kkurbjunashridah: either way though I would like to know where compiling fails so that people can work on it.
03:48:05Paul_The_NerdI mean, if I were designing the UI, I'd make it so you can launch it on an IWAD as a viewer, then it shows a list of PWADs (presumably all stored in a subfolder with a name matching that of the IWAD) for you to select from (checkboxes next to them, or something)
03:48:20ashridahkkurbjun: JdGordon was working on it after i had a quick look. bug him :)
03:49:17JdGordonkkurbjun: where is the latest sources?
03:49:47kkurbjunPaul_The_Nerd: that was one option that I thought of.. the other is having a full interface to pick which base wad you would like without the viewer.. I guess that rockboy set the expectation of running things as a viewer though
03:49:59kkurbjunJdGordon: they are on sourceforge
03:50:20kkurbjunyou have to apply the diff to a cvs copy
03:50:44kkurbjunand then put the files in doom.zip to apps/plugins
03:50:59kkurbjunshould leave you with apps/plugins/doom
03:51:02Paul_The_Nerdkkurbjun: I think viewers just feel simpler than launching it, and then browsing to the file, because there's less need to put the files in a specific location (or include a browser that lets you go up/down levels)
03:52:02Paul_The_NerdI wouldn't object to a nice full interface, mind you.
03:53:00kkurbjunPaul_The_Nerd: True, I'll have to look into it more and see how individual levels use doom1/2. If someone wants to make it a viewer for now though feel free too.
03:53:26JdGordoncompiling...
03:53:49JdGordonu can load user wads through the command line right?
03:54:43kkurbjunyes, but like I said the realloc code does not work correct so sending the -files or -file (whichever it is) won't work properly right now
03:55:11Paul_The_NerdJdGordon: A user wad (PWAD) is essentially a Patch against the main wad (IWAD), so a plugin launching a user wad would need to know which IWAD it was against somehow.
03:55:39Paul_The_NerdThere's actually one "Open Source" IWAD out there.
03:55:40kkurbjunselecting the base iwad would be fine to do though
03:56:00Paul_The_NerdA group went through and replaced the *entirety* of Doom 2's resources, etc, with from-scratch ones.

05:09:22Paul_The_NerdOne thing you *could* do is force users to rename the files to .pwad and .iwad.
05:09:31Paul_The_NerdThen, if they launch a .pwad, it simply asks them to select another file.
05:09:35Paul_The_NerdThis repeats until they pick an iwad.

05:14:07Paul_The_NerdYes
05:14:19BHSPitLappywikipedia has a decent explanation of the *wads

05:14:57BHSPitLappyhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doom_WAD
05:15:08linuxstbSo one option would be for doom to look in the same directory for an iwad if a user selects a pwad.
05:15:40kkurbjunJdGordon: yes
05:16:32BHSPitLappyor have a plugin that's a simple interface where you pick enough wads to "complete a puzzle" and then launch doom

05:19:05Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb: I was actually thinking of that .doom thing. :) Seems a good idea
05:19:12linuxstbOr just load every wad in the same directory as the one you choose.

05:19:38kkurbjunthe .doom idea would be a good idea
05:19:40ashridahit replaces locally modified files wth the original, and saves the modified one in .#filename.revision iirc
05:19:47kkurbjunand pretty easy
05:20:03kkurbjunrelatively that is to creating a full interface
05:20:21Paul_The_NerdThat way all the wads can be hidden somewhere nice, like under .rockbox/doom, and then you can put shortcuts for each of your mods wherever you want them readily accessible.
05:20:50Paul_The_Nerdkkurbjun: I know some source ports have allowed loading of deHacked patches via the command line too. Do you know if this source code is based off of one of those?

05:22:03kkurbjunPaul_The_Nerd: no, I don't have the dHacked patches code in there. I started backporting some of the prBoom features, but the dehacked suppport requires rewiting all of the file code.

05:23:09ashridahyou could use it to modify the animations of various creatures
05:23:12Paul_The_NerdIt was used in some of the more complex TCs. It lets you change values on weapon damage, or which AI an enemy uses... projectile behaviour
05:23:22ashridahsince they were compiled into the executable.
05:23:22kkurbjunhmm
05:23:28ashridahlike making a rapidfire BFG
05:23:29Paul_The_NerdYou could even set one entity to launch another as a projectile. It was used to have an egg spawn a facehugger enemy in the Aliens TC

05:24:05kkurbjunwere there any "good" conversions that used it?
05:24:48ashridahkkurbjun: as paul said, the aliens TC used it to reasonable effect.
05:25:03Paul_The_Nerdkkurbjun: AliensTC was most excellent. Other than that though, it seemed pretty rarely used, though I did see a few alternate gametypes created with it, like various sports, or hockey, or other such things.
05:25:19Paul_The_NerdBut, in the end, I wouldn't qualify it as an "essential" feature in any way
05:25:28kkurbjunI may look into it later, but it's not really a priority now
05:25:43Paul_The_Nerdkkurbjun: are there keymappings for ipod?
05:26:24ashridahman, i can remember some good times having jousting matches with doom.
05:26:30ashridahthose were the days :)
05:26:56kkurbjunno, I don't have an ipod to test with or a way to build a sim. I think there are some additional flags that are required to get doom to run correct on the ipod
05:26:56Paul_The_Nerdashridah: Maps with lots of berserk packs, and no guns?
05:27:07kkurbjunPaul: do you still have the changes you made?
05:27:16ashridahPaul_The_Nerd: nah, basically chainsaw battles
05:27:42Paul_The_Nerdkkurbjun: Are the keys still hard coded, or can I just add another set of #defines in the right file?
05:27:44ashridahyou'd run from either end of a barrier you can't pass, cut each other up a bit, then go back for another pass :)
05:27:50Paul_The_NerdHehehe
05:28:33kkurbjunlinuxstb: I also tried writing directly to the memory for doom. It seemed to give a bit of a performance improvement, but I can't measure it with my old fps code. Paul you can modify the defines I have in i_video.c.
05:28:48kkurbjundirectly to the lcd memory that is
05:28:58Paul_The_Nerdkkurbjun, linuxstb: Okay, gonna test out doom on iPod then, see how far I get.
05:29:22kkurbjunPaul, the new compiler flags you need are on sourceforge I believe
05:34:51Paul_The_NerdWhat would you use as a conditional in a makefile for ipod targets?
05:35:32kkurbjunPaul: I'm not sure, I would just add the flags to the CFLAGS section at the top for now to see if it works
05:35:41Paul_The_NerdI did that
05:35:55Paul_The_NerdBut I'd much rather have ifdef something cflags += etc,
05:36:21Paul_The_NerdThat way, if I do get it working, I can give you a nice little patch and not break any of your stuff. ;-)
05:36:23ashridahPaul_The_Nerd: conditional stuff in makefiles is really non-standard iirc
05:37:18ashridahthat's one of the reasons they use cpp on files like SOURCES iirc
05:38:24linuxstbPaul_The_Nerd: Look in apps/plugins/Makefile - for the section that adds rockboy (and probably Doom) to the build. This uses "ifeq".
05:38:54ashridahdoesn't that only work in gnu make?
05:39:08linuxstbProbably - but Rockbox demands gnu make
05:39:33*ashridah remembers the pain of trying to use a conditional make target using solaris make
05:39:35*ashridah shudders
05:39:59Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb: I saw that. But do I just use IPOD_NANO instead of what it uses?
05:41:14kkurbjunPaul_The_Nerd: the cflags should be the same for all the IPOD/ARM targets
05:41:55linuxstbThe problem is that Makefiles don't have access to the #defines in config-*.h - all you really have is the target name.
05:42:49Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb, kkurbjun: Okay, I think I've got the makefile thing worked out. Thanks.
05:43:18Paul_The_Nerd*think* being the operative word
05:45:26Paul_The_NerdWarnings and Errors, wee! So, at least I have doom properly wrapped in a conditional.

05:59:03Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb: Can all buttons be modified with Select?
05:59:06kkurbjunI havn't tried it, but probably.
05:59:38Paul_The_Nerdkkurbjun: Okay, I'm trying Y, ENTER and SHOOT as "Select" for the moment

06:07:40Paul_The_Nerdkkurbjun: Also, as a note: cpu_boost doesn't work yet. That line also provides a small problem at 125 and 143 in rockdoom.c
06:08:15Paul_The_NerdA couple #ifndef CPU_ARMs fixed those though
06:08:21kkurbjunok, I'll add an ifdef for that one too
06:08:45Paul_The_NerdAlso, where do I change the plugin ram size?

06:10:11Paul_The_NerdGotcha
06:10:16kkurbjunyou have to re-run configure after changing that in a clean make directory
06:10:33Paul_The_NerdIndeed.
06:16:49kkurbjunPaul: is it running?

06:17:08kkurbjunwhat was it?
06:17:37Paul_The_NerdWell, I *think* I just forgot to hit save in my editor window with the buffer size change
06:18:15Paul_The_NerdNo, it still doesn't build
06:18:35kkurbjunwhat's the error?

06:24:52kkurbjungood
06:24:53Paul_The_NerdIt built fine with that
06:27:57Paul_The_NerdOkay, Doom2 gets "Buffer Error"
06:28:04kkurbjunhmm
06:28:11kkurbjunwhat cflags are you using?
06:28:16Paul_The_NerdDoom1 SW gets "Buffer Error" and then "Couldn't realloc lumpinfo"
06:29:33Paul_The_NerdI just added -fpack-struct -mstructure-size-boundary=8
06:30:19Paul_The_NerdAnd the -fpack-struct thing seems to have worked, since there were all these warning messages: doomdata.h:59: warning: #pragma pack has no effect with -fpack-struct - ignored
06:30:27Papricakkurbjun, you have compiled version for the new version?
06:31:48kkurbjunPaprica: it's not a significant change right now from what's available. We're working on getting it functioning on the IPOD

06:33:25linuxstbPaul_The_Nerd: If you are using the BUTTON_SCROLL_* events, then I don't hink you can test for them using button_status() - you have to use button_get()

06:35:05kkurbjunor warnings?
06:35:14Paul_The_NerdNo, they're *all* over
06:35:38Paul_The_NerdI think
06:35:43Paul_The_NerdLemme double check that. Buffer's too small
06:37:13kkurbjunlinuxstb: is the arm big or little indian?
06:38:11imphasingIs there a shortage of people with 5G ipods, for testing?
06:38:24imphasingI'm buying a new ipod, and I wonder which would be best for development..
06:38:48Paul_The_Nerdkkurbjun: Sorry, yeah, looks like it is just doomdata.h. It's just showing up bunches because of all the includes, I suppose
06:39:04Paul_The_NerdLine 59 and 213 and that's it
06:40:10kkurbjunPaul: that shouldn't be the problem.. you tried once to remove -D__BIG_ENDIAN__ from the cflags?

06:51:22linuxstbPaul_The_Nerd: A Data abort means an attempted unaligned memory access.
06:51:33linuxstbAnd yes, the ARM is little-endian.
06:51:50kkurbjunPaul: it's very close to working. just need to get past the wad loading. I'm not sure if it's endianness problem or structure packing right now. I can write some test code later, but I need to sleep soon. Can you send me a diff of what you have so far.. linuxstb: is that a rockbox error then?
06:52:18linuxstbIs what a rockbox error? The "data abort"
06:52:20linuxstb?
06:52:51kkurbjunyes the "data abort" I mean is it somethign that rockbox is monitoring?
06:53:20linuxstbYes, the ARM CPU throws an exception, which Rockbox then catches and gives you that error.
06:53:49kkurbjunhmm, I wonder how idoom got around that
06:54:10kkurbjunit might be my structure packing attributes in doomdata.h
06:54:36linuxstbDo you understand the alignment rules for ARM?
06:54:36kkurbjunhow does the ipod read bmps then?
06:54:44kkurbjunno I don't
06:55:14Paul_The_NerdHow do I make diff compare two directories, as I seem to be horrible when I can't just use CVS diff
06:55:41linuxstb32-bit reads have to be aligned to 4 bytes - so reading a 32-bit value from address 0x10003 is illegal (=data abort), but 0x10004 is legal.
06:55:42kkurbjundiff -ubB doom/ doomold/
06:55:58linuxstbSimilarly, 16-bit reads have to be aligned to 2 bytes - 0x10001 is bad, 0x10002 is good.
06:56:04linuxstbBytes can be read from anywhere.
06:57:03linuxstbThe Archos CPUs (SH) will also fail if you attempt an unaligned memory access. The Coldfire doesn't complain, but the read/write to memory will be slower.
06:58:18kkurbjunlinuxstb: thanks, that's very helpful, I didn't realize that.
06:58:23Paul_The_Nerdhttp://66.68.93.2/doom.diff
06:58:44Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb has alerted me that the key defines may not work, since I used the wheel ones.
07:00
07:00:24kkurbjunPaul: somethign that you may try is removing all the __attribute__((packed)) from doomdata.h. They are what is changed from idoom. I don't think that they are needed anyway. that was just when I was trying to figure out the graphics errors
07:00:27Paul_The_Nerdkkurbjun: The makefile changes *should* have it do big endian on all the irivers 'cept the 790, and do the ipod-necessary option on the ipods.

07:30:30Paul_The_NerdThat one shows up partially offscreen.
07:32:10Paul_The_Nerdkkurbjun: Changing the clear screen bit of your printf to be easier to scale for different LCD sizes, and to not draw text halfway off screen. ;-)
07:33:06kkurbjun: ), yeah, it was real basic, just enough that I had a good idea what it was doing
07:33:36kkurbjunPaul: the problem is with r_data.c
07:33:58kkurbjunidoom has some different packing attributes in it that I don't have right now.

08:44:12Paul_The_NerdThere are plenty
08:45:09Paul_The_NerdOh, linuxstb, can I substituted button_hold for button_status, or do they pass/return different things? (Still working on tracing bugs, so I haven't even looked at that yet.)

08:57:31CassandraB4gder, if you mean breaking the builds, that was me, I'm afraid.
08:58:10CassandraImportant lesson: Never commit while sleep deprived. You're bound to miss something.

13:01:22Paul_The_NerdScratch that, it *does* work, kinda. It gives a message, and waits for user input, then if you just hit enter it still creates a pdf.

14:28:14amiconnTags at the beginning are way better on a mobile device
14:28:29MoosperpleXa: just convert them to id3 v2
14:28:35amiconnIt saves the seek-to-end and back when reading tags

14:44:11LinusNamiconn: why so?

14:47:35__peer__They mostly for home use.
14:47:39LinusNamiconn: the backlight code in targets/coldfire/iriver/h300 will only be the lowest level code
14:47:40ripnetukyes, but as soon as Archos moves onto another model, we can forget about software updates... also I am addicted to Rockbox features (multiple independent bookmarks mostly)
14:47:49Zagor__peer__: yes you will
14:48:16__peer__they worth 70$?
14:48:28ripnetuki was thinking of the istation v43 - that runs Linux, so i should be able to port the Rockbox sim to it hopefully
14:48:28amiconnLinusN: Another disadvantage would be that the lowest level acces will have to be done by functions -> more overhead
14:48:34peturLinusN: again, will you not end up with many directories with very little files in?
14:48:41LinusNamiconn: could be macros as well
14:48:50LinusNpetur: yes
14:48:55amiconn(unless we use .h files with loadsa macros, or inline functions)
14:49:15amiconnMacros aren't exactly easy to read
14:49:54LinusNthe advantages would be that porting will be a more straightforward process, you can start with empty stubs for the lowlevel functions
14:50:20LinusNand you (almost) always know where to look for the hardware specific functions
14:50:28LinusNfor a particular target
14:50:49amiconnThat's correct. Well, it seems this is something that has to be tried

14:55:07LinusNamiconn: yes?
14:55:11tucozB4gder, hold on. I'll make paste for you
14:55:31amiconnI made the asm versions two files, with memmove() jumping into the forward branch in memcpy_a.S when forward copying has to be done
14:55:50amiconnA comment at the top will point this out
14:56:28amiconnThis has the advantage that memmove_a.o doesn't need to be linked when memmove() isn't used,
14:56:29LinusNthose two would end up in target/coldfire in the new structure
14:56:49amiconnNo, those 2 will need to be splitted in two each,
14:56:59amiconnand end up in target/coldfire and target/sh1
14:57:05LinusNyes, of course
14:57:23*B4gder is in favour of splitting ifdefs into files
14:57:40amiconnI added memmove.c from newlib, as it seems memcpy.c is also from newlib

15:01:40B4gderhm, maybe they're just missing...
15:02:06B4gderso how is the manual supposed to know how to get the gifs and jpegs?

15:11:55bandgeekndbquick question if someone has a minute - i finally realized why one of my music folders wasn't showing up under "file-tree" navigation. The album name (also the folder name) started with a period, which i've now learned hides folders in Rockbox (took me long enough, I know)
15:12:11bandgeekndbwhen i try to rename another folder in windows with a period in front, it rejects the new folder name
15:12:24B4gderuse the command line prompt
15:12:36bandgeekndbah
15:12:37bandgeekndbthank you
15:12:42B4gderthat's the "windows explorer" deciding you may not do that
15:14:06bandgeekndbany way to do that w/o the cmd line prompt - access to the cmd line prompt has been disabled on my school computer
15:14:23bandgeekndbstupid IT department thinks we're a bunch of kiddy hackers and doesn't trust us

15:14:52tucozwe could probably snatch a good deal of screenshots from the wiki as a start

15:15:24bandgeekndboh well. thanks anyway B4gder

15:17:22Paul_The_NerdI am slow
15:17:48Paul_The_NerdI've found that school "tech" departments tend to take the lazy way out, and in most cases just delete the icon.
15:17:49tucozisn't it also possible to use " " around a filename in windows

16:00:44amiconnSome parts in the core can also be changed to use memmove()
16:00:57preglowamiconn: good reason to test out lostlogics new codec null output driver as well
16:00:59amiconnOne place I know is the font cache
16:03:39safetydanyay, preglow is back
16:03:45safetydannow you can tell me the things I got wrong
16:04:54preglowamiconn: just had a check, only faad, libmad and musepack use memmove, and of those i think musepack does it the most
16:05:05preglowsafetydan: i'll try the gui out right now
16:05:17preglowstrange, when i tested my eq right before i left, i could only get noise out of it

16:05:27preglowamiconn: what?
16:05:37amiconnBla, noncsense

16:24:40preglowand anything on how the eq actually sounds? i haven't used it much myself
16:25:17safetydanapparently it sounds fine
16:25:28safetydanneeds a pre-amp to stop clipping though
16:25:32preglowyes, indeed
16:25:38preglowi think the gain sounds too weak
16:25:39safetydanand step acceleration is on the TODO list
16:25:41preglowbut i can measure that
16:26:05preglowrockbox really needs a generic function or something for doing accelartion
16:26:08preglowif at all possible
16:26:13safetydanhttp://misticriver.net/showthread.php?t=36519 should give you some idea of what people think
16:26:13preglowi'd also love to use it in the pitch screen
16:26:20preglowok, will read
16:26:33amiconnThe button driver already does repeat acceleration
16:26:49safetydanI should probably make more of a distinction between shelf and peak filters
16:27:55preglowahh, yes
16:28:13preglowamiconn: a two-step thing?
16:28:16safetydanOh, there was one guy saying that the EQ doesn't work on 22Khz files
16:28:29safetydanhttp://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=1887.msg17801#msg17801
16:28:34preglowsafetydan: i know, that's weird, sample rate shouldn't matter at all for the core eq code
16:28:50preglowthe only place you need the sample rate, is when calculating the cutoff value to send to eq_*_coefs
16:29:14preglowhowever, i think i know what the bug is
16:29:22preglowyou don't cap frequency based on sample rate
16:29:32pregloweq freq can be maximum samplerate/2
16:29:45preglowif this is not true, the cutoff calculation will overflow
16:30:05amiconnEQ is applied before resampling?
16:30:06safetydanah, of course
16:30:13preglowamiconn: no, after
16:30:27preglowwait...
16:30:35safetydanQ should also be limited to 1.0 for the shelf filters shouldn't it?
16:30:46preglowyes, after
16:31:04preglowsafetydan: it doesn't make sense to use anything but 0.707 for shelving filters
16:31:24preglowsafetydan: what would happen if you used a higher value, is that the shelving filters would get some peaking tendencies around the cutoff freq

16:33:24preglowbut yeah, amiconn has a good point, resampling is done before the eq

16:35:22ep0chi had the same with version 10 before
16:35:30Paul_The_Nerdsafetydan: That is a minor problem if you -R one of the earlier version, then apply a later one, funkyness can ensue, as it doesn't remove those files.
16:35:38tucozAny wiki gurus around? I try to write LaTeX in the wiki, but I keep getting a LaTeX? text when I preview
16:35:54Paul_The_Nerdep0ch: patch -R to get rid of it, delete eq_menu.c and .h, and then apply the patch again, and see if that fixes it.
16:36:02ep0chk
16:36:18amiconntucoz: That's because LaTeX is recognised as a wiki word
16:36:41amiconnEither you add a description for it afterwards, then it will turn into an ordinary wiki link
16:36:45tucozamiconn: Ok, is it possible to tell it that it isn't a wiki word?
16:36:58josh_tucoz: try !LaTeX

16:37:57safetydanpreglow: someone also asked for a lower, lower bound on Q, more around 0.3 area
16:38:06ep0chPaul_The_Nerd: thanks, that seems to have fixed it
16:38:40preglowsafetydan: i would not have thought that was of any use, but sure, i can fix that
16:39:07preglowamiconn: but yeah, the button acceleration just does one step of acceleration, yes?
16:39:17amiconnNo, multiple
16:39:24ep0chi think i got some really unbearable resonance when i used a really high Q, and i think it broke the eq until i rebooted

16:41:23preglowep0ch: so small wonder
16:41:35ep0chpreglow: but it broke the eq too
16:41:47preglowep0ch: it shouldn't 6.4 really isn't much
16:41:48slimxdoesn't it charge on firewire only preglow ?
16:41:56preglowslimx: newer ipods doesn't have firewire
16:42:01preglowslimx: i don't know about older ones
16:42:06ep0chpreglow: i.e. changing it back to a reasonable level kept the resonance going
16:42:14preglowep0ch: is this with a new patch?

16:51:57preglowa gain can be integrated into one of the eq filters at no additional cost

16:55:09Paul_The_Nerdpreglow: Why not just put a 6th slider in there, for simply "pregain"
16:56:28preglowPaul_The_Nerd: i was more thinking how it should work internally, for max efficiency
16:56:43preglowdoing a separate gaining pass on the audio is a waste when one of the filters can do it
16:57:10preglowsafetydan: which parameters are you wondering about?
16:57:46Paul_The_NerdAaah
17:00
17:00:17preglowsafetydan: i think this merits a commit now
17:01:50safetydanThe maximum for Q
17:01:57safetydanwhether it's sensible for cutoff to go as high as 22050
17:02:02ep0chiceing on the cake would be a button combo to accelerate step size
17:02:03safetydanthings like that
17:02:46tucozok, first step towards a help on the documentation effort. http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/ManualHowto
17:04:48lostlogicep0ch: yes

17:05:54Paul_The_Nerdtucoz: You might want to mention that TeTeX is available as a Cygwin package. If you get TeTex and TeTeX-extras, you have everything you need under windows, without needing Miktex
17:06:31preglowsafetydan: whether that is sensible is a matter of psychoacoustics, my code allows all frequncies up to samplerate/2
17:06:43preglowsafetydan: q can go as loud as a 16 bit number allows
17:06:53preglowso something around 65536.9999
17:07:01ep0chlostlogic: i was trying out your pcmbuf_rework.patch and had a few comments, but i've just noticed there is now a version 3 so i'll just test that one to see if i get the same issues...

17:07:23preglow65535, that would be
17:07:33preglowbut no, values much higher than 20 or so isn't needed in an eq

17:07:42preglowhmm

17:08:08preglowbtw, i just did a test now, and the eq works just like it should, gain is correct and frequency is correct

18:28:46preglowas you should
18:29:04chilin_dudefirefox :)
18:29:09FebsAnyway, on the EQ, frequency is currently adjusted in 10 Hz steps.
18:29:26FebsAny plans to make that a logarithmic adjustment?
18:29:55Febs10 Hz is a significant change at 50 Hz. Less so at 10kHz!
18:32:20preglowFebs: yeah, i know, i'd more like a logarithmic acceleration, though
18:32:29preglowFebs: you might still want to finetune at higher frequencies
18:32:51amiconnWhat about basic the step size on the number of decimals?

18:34:23lostlogicpreglow: Seems like dsp_input_size is rounding toward zero excessively maybe? When the pcmbuffer needs wrapping (has 1 or 2 samples of space left), those last 1-2 samples don't get written when pitching down, because dsp_input_size says it can't fit anything in them.
18:34:54preglowoh
18:34:57lostlogicep0ch: interestingly, this also explains worse performance on _low_ bitrate files
18:34:59preglowwell, it does round down
18:35:13lostlogicI'll work around it, because it will make performance on low bitrate better any way.
18:36:05ep0chinteresting, what's the issue?

21:09:59linuxstbYes.
21:10:14linuxstbPlus Linus did some work on them as well.
21:10:54NicoFRi was looking at the code so i wanted to ask you if it was worth me trying to fix it
21:11:21linuxstbIt's OK, I'm having a look now.

21:13:23NicoFRlinuxstb: and what about having another tag that would fill the BG with a solid color ?
21:14:12linuxstbYes, we need that.

21:14:38safetydanep0ch: interesting in that it does something useful or interesting in that it makes the sound go funny in interesting ways?
21:14:56lostlogicep0ch: want to torture test it again before I do that? :)

21:17:43linuxstblostlogic: I'll have another go at fixing it later tonight. The current ipod playback is buggy, but at least it doesn't freeze, forcing a reset.
21:18:30linuxstbI'm going to try and rewrite the pcm_playback code for ipod, but try and more closely follow the logic of the uda1380 driver. I'm now understanding things more.
21:18:53peturBagder: I'm sure I did something wrong to Linus (some pretty bad first patches as I was learning all these new things: cygwin, cvs, dos2unix,...)
21:20:02lostlogiclinuxstb: hmm... might better for me to commit first any way, because my stuff does modify the pcm_playback.c a bit, at least the initialization, and not holding on to extra data...

22:41:42perldiveris there any development of rockbox for toshiba's gigabeat?
22:41:44lostlogicsafetydan: I want to get rid of that function... what are you trying to do?
22:42:10safetydanreset eq filter history every time playback stops
22:42:46 Nick DrMoos is now known as Moos (i=DrMoos@m53.net81-66-159.noos.fr)
22:43:10preglowlostlogic: as in only them, not on continous track changes, etc
22:43:14lostlogicsafetydan: define every time the playback stops −− should it reset on skips due to buffer underflow, on track changes, both, neither?
22:43:15preglows/them/then/
22:43:18amiconn...and on coldfire, filling adjacent pixels with memset16()/memcpy() will give significant speedups, since these functions use burst mode if possible
22:43:31preglowlostlogic: only when there's a significant gap in the playbacj
22:44:03preglowat least the normal conditions, on buffer underflow and stuff like that, we'll survive not handling it optimally
22:44:04lostlogicI assume a pause would not require a skip? This is a system timer based operation?

22:45:09preglownow that i think about it, the only case that needs to zero the filter history, is the case when the output is interrupted by new audio
22:45:26preglowlike skipping tracks
22:45:30imphasinghrm
22:45:42imphasinginteresting..
22:45:54safetydanwhat about crossfade?
22:47:00preglownope
22:47:04preglowonly rough transitions
22:47:12lostlogicthen it should be reset on play initialization and in codec_request_next_track if new_track and not crossfade, I think.

22:47:46amiconnIiuc this may break gapless playback...
22:48:03lostlogicit won't impact gapless
22:48:06 Quit perpleXa (Remote closed the connection)
22:48:11preglowit shouldn't
22:48:19lostlogicbecause preglow says only on rough (manual) track changes
22:48:33amiconnah ok
22:48:35preglowproblem is, if there is a sudden change in output amplitude, the filter will make a resonant pop
22:48:48 Join solexx [0] (n=jrschulz@d020063.adsl.hansenet.de)
22:48:53preglowif audio is gapless, the audio should not change suddenly, and so the playback engine should not reset filter history
22:48:58lostlogicwhich could happen at track change even if it is an automatic change
22:49:21preglowindeed, but trigging on manual changes is the best we can do
22:49:27lostlogicyep
22:49:38amiconnI don't think this pop is a problem
22:49:46preglowit's annoying
22:49:49preglowand very noticable
22:49:51amiconn(on automatic track changes that don't 'match')
22:50:20preglowbut yeah
22:50:23preglowit's far from critical
22:50:28preglowso might as well let it wait
22:50:38amiconnI'd think the UDA treble& bass filters do the same
22:50:47preglowthey're not resonant
22:50:48safetydanI've borken something serious somewhere, EQ just does white noise now
22:51:02BHSPitLappywhat pop are we talking about?
22:51:03preglowsafetydan: what've you changed?
22:51:15BHSPitLappythe volume jump after a fadeout?
22:51:24safetydanmoved eq_update_data calls out of dsp_process
22:51:43preglowBHSPitLappy: no, just the sudden jump you get from sample a to sample b during a track transition that's not continuous
22:51:56BHSPitLappyhmm
22:52:17BHSPitLappywell, why does my problem happen :P
22:52:32Learsafetydan: me too, but I changed a few more things...
22:52:50amiconnThe volume jump after fadeout happens because the fadeout doesn't check whether pcm playback finally finished
22:53:08preglowi think software codec platforms should use a software based fadout
22:53:15preglowthe hardware based one clicks like mad
22:53:33amiconnWe had the same problem on archos back then for low bitrate tracks, and I added a wait-for-MAS-running-out-of-data check
22:53:49preglowyeah, i remember
22:55:41 Quit w0rds ()
22:55:44amiconnSimilar effect - the playback engine stops delivering data, but the MAS keeps playing until it runs out of buffered data
22:55:56amiconn...which takes longer with lower bitrates
22:56:33safetydanI'm going to have to leave this for the moment
22:56:47safetydanseems something weird happens when you update the eq coef's outside of dsp_process

22:56:55safetydanlike a burst of white noise, then it settles down
22:57:35preglowoh?
22:57:40safetydanI can post a patch with what I have (mostly i18n fixes and moving eq_update_data calls), but it's not usable
22:57:46preglowhow fast does it?
22:57:51preglowsettle down, that is
22:57:59safetydana second, maybe two
22:58:03preglowhmm
22:58:10preglowand it settles down to ordinary eqed audio?
22:58:12preglowor silence or what?
22:58:19safetydanordinary audio
22:58:26safetydanactually, should I reset the history on coef change?
22:58:30preglowno
22:58:32preglowby no means
22:58:37preglowbut this i strange
22:58:48preglowthe coefs shouldn't be updated differently now than before
22:59:08preglowafter all, if you did no control changes before, the coefs would always be the same anyway
22:59:16Learpreglow: I made similar changes, but it doesn't settle down for me...
22:59:19safetydanIt's roughly once every HZ/10 for changes from the UI
22:59:23preglowso nothing much should change...
22:59:48pregloware you completely sure the macsr is set correctly?
22:59:52safetydanoh

23:00:13preglowyou need to be careful with that one
23:00:18preglowmacsr is saved per thread
23:00:21amiconnmacsr is saved in the thread context...
23:00:29amiconn:)
23:00:48preglowthere should be aboslutely no changes in sound with this change
23:00:53safetydanno
23:00:53preglowand a ton of cpu savings
23:01:09safetydanI forgot I'd changed that in eq.c
23:01:18preglowoh?
23:01:20safetydanwell it was safe when I was calling from dsp_process only
23:01:40preglowyeah, it was
23:02:21safetydanIs it that much faster that I should be setting up macsr in eq_update_data()?
23:03:24preglowsafetydan: btw, eq_update_data should, for max efficiency, only update the bands that have changed, but it's not _that_ important
23:03:33preglowsafetydan: and yeah, eq_update_data would be a nice place to do the macsr set
23:03:34Learsafetydan: if you only call it when settings actually change, it won't matter.
23:04:00safetydanokay, last fix before sleeping
23:04:45preglowthink i might do a little go at the eq graphing before i call it a night
23:05:05preglowno one would be interested in the phase response of the eq, no?
23:06:02lostlogicthinking of ways to provide pluggable output. calling functions via function pointer instead of directly costs 1 instruction per call, right?
23:07:31amiconnDepends how often the function is called
23:07:50***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
23:08:04amiconnIf it's called more than once from within a loop, calling via pointer may be equally fast
23:08:12lostlogicamiconn: yah

23:10:31safetydanlast patch for tonight is posted, only lightly tested though
23:10:37safetydanlucky v13
23:10:55safetydanany problems post them to the patch tracker or here and I'll take a look tomorrow
23:11:21lostlogiconce I get my pcmbuf refactoring in, could make the destination of the pcm data null, output or file just by changing the pcmbuf_add_chunk function (which shouldn't balled much faster than 5hz.
23:12:49preglowsounds wonderful
23:12:53lostlogicthen make a plugin that wraps that plays to a destination one file at a time, and we can tiem codecs or write wavs for precision comparisons or whatever
23:13:12preglowagain
23:13:14preglowsounds like bliss

23:13:18*preglow huggles lostlogic
23:13:25*lostlogic won't make the plugin though :-P
23:13:31preglowthat poor playback system really needs this
23:14:04lostlogicit's not a bad system... it just suffers from waht I call "Just in case coding"
23:14:19preglowhaha, which is?
23:14:43 Join ashridah [0] (i=ashridah@220-253-123-152.VIC.netspace.net.au)
23:14:59Learhm... boost seems to be down a fair bit (but I moved eq_data to iram too)...
23:15:23lostlogicinstead of writing tight code that prevents weird cases, handle the weird cases with if catches... "Just in case" they come up
23:17:40preglowLear: i designed it so that moving eq_data to iram should not matter much unless the block size is really small
23:18:04 Part safetydan ("night all")
23:18:07Learwell, the processing block is 256 samples...
23:18:22preglowisn't it whatever the codec passes along?
23:18:28preglowi thought 256 samples was a resampler thing
23:19:05 Quit ashridah (Client Quit)
23:19:08lostlogicdsp_process will get 1 codec packet, up-to 1024 samples iirc
23:20:22Learwell, yes, but look at convert_to_internal, it never returns more than 256, thus breaking up the outer loop in dsp_process in 256 sample blocks.
23:20:49Learhe, 128 samples even.
23:21:11preglowthat needs to be changed
23:21:16preglowunless there is good reason
23:22:35lostlogicI wonder what kind of impact changing the PCM chunk size would have on performance...
23:22:44 Join ashridah [0] (i=ashridah@220-253-121-139.VIC.netspace.net.au)
23:22:53preglowwell, in most cases now, the codecs pass their data on in iram
23:22:55Learthis way, all filters knows the sample_buf and resample_buf is large enough, if they are needed.
23:23:01preglowand doing it all in one pass can be nothing but faster
23:24:08Leartrue, but this does keep things simpler... :)
23:24:27lostlogicpreglow: the codecs have an 8kb buffer allocated somewhere to pass back, or where does it come from?
23:25:04preglow8kb?
23:25:10preglowisn't the size dependent on the codec?
23:25:24preglowit is, unless we're talking about different thing
23:25:24preglows
23:26:19lostlogicThe codec creates an output buffer and passes it to the insert_split_callback which calls dsp_process on it...
23:27:05Learbut the sample_buf could easily be larger, now that resample_buf doesn't "have to" be 4x sample_buf. Would help the non-resample case...
23:27:25Learlostlogic: yes, and that buffer is codec-specific...
23:27:29preglowyes
23:27:33NicoFRhow hard would it be to fix the annoying progressbar behaviour when seeking (ie it goes back to the original position for a split second) ?
23:27:35preglowallocated statically on iram for most codecs
