00:01:08*petur is installing colinux
00:01:25peturshould I try Debian or Gentoo Deluxe?
00:01:36peturthose are the options I get...
00:01:41*BHSPitMonkey installs petur into a wood chipper
00:01:47BHSPitMonkeywhy's that
00:01:58peturheh?

00:03:23petur...to be used as build environment for RB
00:04:01lostlogicNicoFR: shouldn't be too hard −− there is actually already code in the seeking part of the WPS code that is supposed to handle it, but it's kludgy code, there should be a better way.
00:04:20lostlogicNicoFR: perhaps manually calling the set_elapsed callback at the end of seek
00:04:24JdGordonpetur: id go deb, only coz gentoo is a pita

00:04:47 Quit ashridah ("Leaving")
00:04:49JdGordonbut its personal preference really...
00:04:59JdGordonalso, if its only for rb then id say stay with cygwin
00:05:51peturI figured installing colinux would take less time than building a crosscompiler under cygwin :)
00:06:45JdGordonjust use the cygwin packages?
00:06:59JdGordonand y? ud still need to compile them under colinux
00:08:05JdGordonalso, it means u need to use vim or something in colinux to edit the files.. unless u use a seperate partition for it
00:08:10JdGordonnot a hdd image..

00:27:25BHSPitLappythat's what I've always said
00:27:35BHSPitLappyprogress bars, too
00:27:52LinusNJdGordon: take a guess
00:27:58JdGordontoo lazy?

00:28:16JdGordonum..?
00:28:20 Join webguest58 [0] (n=5004e006@labb.contactor.se)
00:28:21BHSPitLappynot lazy enough?
00:28:48LinusNthe answer is 1) the wps was once developed for a 2-line character lcd
00:28:49MoosJdGordon:think to a minimum of userfriendly things, that *complicate* things
00:29:05LinusN2) we felt it was good enough for the archos recorder lcd as well
00:29:18JdGordonah, ok
00:29:20LinusN3) "lazy"
00:29:21JdGordonmakes sense...
00:29:25BHSPitLappywell it's not user friendly anymore!
00:29:46Moosmore than with coordinates for all
00:29:54LinusNBHSPitLappy: in what way?

00:30:28LinusNBHSPitLappy: it is a pain to make a wps woth lots of pretty pictures and colors
00:30:34JdGordonhow many targets still only have charachter lcds?
00:30:41LinusNJdGordon: one
00:31:05LinusNi'm not saying that we should keep the current system
00:31:38BHSPitLappyJdGordon: did your color thing ever get committed?
00:31:40LinusNi'm just responding to your question why the wps is like this
00:32:02MoosLinusN: historical cause :)
00:32:08LinusNas always
00:32:14Mooshehe :-)
00:32:20JdGordonhmm.. ok
00:32:31BHSPitLappy"the country was still at war, and hitler's forces were growing ever stronger..."
00:32:34JdGordonwhat im thinking could be very nice.. and workable on the char lcds..
00:32:47LinusNi tend to trigger on the "why isn't it it done like this" questions
00:32:48 Quit t0mas ("brb, forgot a little kernel option... again...")
00:32:49BHSPitLappy"the rockbox community knew we needed -something- to get them by on the players of the time"
00:33:09MoosLinusN: I'm very happy that with those colors LCD, Rockbox tend to change the way a bit
00:33:27Moosin the *good* side :-)
00:33:29BHSPitLappyJdGordon: ?
00:34:22JdGordonwould something like this work? have the wps format like... tag|x|y|<conditions..> and u put the text in the conditions part.. and ud need a new tag for regular text... just have a long list of that...
00:34:23LinusNthe problem with placing text in arbitrary pixel positions is the scrolling
00:34:26JdGordonif that makes sense...

00:34:52BHSPitLappyok
00:35:04BHSPitLappydoes it work on 176x132?
00:35:09*Cassandra wonders where on earth these people who post feature requests come from.
00:35:19imphasingspace!
00:35:19LinusNCassandra: hell
00:35:20JdGordonLinusN: that could be got around if u allow for either line x or pixel x...
00:35:30Cassandra"Please add a pointless feature to rockbox in order to help me break the law with impunity."
00:35:40JdGordonBHSPitLappy: should do.. it resizes for the screen
00:35:44LinusNCassandra: that's a good one
00:36:10LinusNJdGordon: you mean scrolling text on lines and non-scolling in pixel positions?
00:36:17JdGordonbingo
00:36:20CassandraI have a very short response to that.
00:36:21MoosCassandra: that sounds more like philosophical meaning :)
00:36:33JdGordonwould it work? should i play today?
00:37:02BHSPitLappyJdGordon: actually I think the coords should be rectangle dimensions
00:37:31JdGordonBHSPitLappy: why? use the fonts to figure it out...
00:37:39amiconnLinusN: I don't see the principal difference in placing scrolling text at pixel position vs. lines
00:38:07XavierGrI have to agree with amiconn
00:38:15amiconnEach scrolling line will need a set of attributes anyway (foreground colour, perhaps font, style...)
00:38:25LinusNamiconn: there is no principal difference, except that we need to rewrite the scroll thread for pixel positioned scrolling text
00:38:32amiconnx and y position (and width) would just be an extension of that
00:38:39amiconnyes
00:39:02JdGordonis there any way to scroll small bits of lines? or only whole lines?
00:39:10LinusNi'm all for a rewrite of the scroll thread
00:39:31LinusNJdGordon: there is a patch for that
00:39:33amiconnOf course, if someome positions two scrolling lines so that they partially overlap, the result will look strange at best,
00:39:45amiconnbut I don't think this is a problem

06:19:31BHSPitLappyall I want is the color value
06:19:40BHSPitLappywill it show a color and its value?
06:20:48JdGordonye, in that case.. all u need to do is put the .c and .h in the apps/gui folder.. add the to apps/SOURCES and then add a menu entry somewhere to load it
06:20:53JdGordonor make it a plugin..
06:23:13BHSPitLappywould the plugin be quicker? :P

08:53:33Paul_The_NerdIt automatically hides folders beginning with a period, and hidden folders. Which is why you only see the rockbox.ipod file
08:54:21aznstylewhy wont it go into ipod_control?

09:00
09:01:01Paul_The_NerdThe whole "pretty" debate is vague anyway. Since the while playing screen is *very* customizable, you can easily reproduce (or improve upon) the basic ipod. The menu structure is basic text based, but you can load a background image. I like that option a lot more than that crazy sideways slide thing.

09:48:34LinusNi will begin with using firmware/SOURCES as usual, and then we can extend that if we wish
09:48:43B4gderI agree with that approach
09:48:56amiconnI would think that we won't need a SOURCES in the cpu-specific and target-specific dirs
09:49:18LinusNlet's just solve the problems as we go
09:49:25B4gderamiconn: the point of using that there would only be to-reuse the same kind of make logic/scripts
09:49:30JdGordonthats a novel idea///
09:50:43B4gdersince SOURCES is used all over, it would possibly feel odd to not use it in some dirs
09:51:26amiconnLinusN: Hmm. Imho, the SOURCES #ifdefing is one of the messy places. The ifdefing within the actual sources feels less messy
09:51:46JdGordoni tinhk the oposite...
09:51:53CtcpIgnored 1 channel CTCP requests in 0 seconds at the last flood
09:51:53*JdGordon hates all the #ifdefing
09:52:07B4gderthe main reason for the SOURCES-#ifdef is the slooooow cygwin
09:52:18amiconnNot only
09:52:22LinusNamiconn: SOURCES is messy, but that's not where i spend most my devbeloping time
09:52:52LinusNand i believe even SOURCES will be cleaner with this approach
09:52:56amiconnWe need a mechanism to *not* build common/ files in favour of optimised versions
09:53:24LinusNyes, in the #else part of the target #ifdef chain
09:53:53amiconnOtherwise the iriver binary may e.g. end up containing the C version of memcpy even though there is an asm version
09:53:57LinusN#ifdef CPU_COLDFIRE
09:54:07LinusNtarget/coldfire/memset.S
09:54:17LinusN#elif defined(ARM)
09:54:21LinusNtarget/arm/memset.S
09:54:24LinusN#else
09:54:28LinusNcommon/memset.c
09:54:30LinusN#endif
09:55:07amiconnUnfortunately there is not implicit way to tell the build system to build the generic version only if there is no optimised version
09:55:26LinusNno, but does it have to be one?
09:55:41LinusNi like explicit ways, feels more KISS in some respects
09:55:45amiconnIt would avoid the SOURCES ifdefing as in your example
09:56:21Paul_The_NerdI think the explicit way might be better anyway.
09:56:22amiconnOh, and btw, no one wrote optimised mem*() functions for arm, but for SH1 :)
09:56:36LinusN:-)
09:56:51Paul_The_NerdIn terms of, when someone first looks at the sources, they'll know very clearly what's going on once they read that chain.
09:57:40amiconnOne place where it will be hard to separate by cpu and target are the plugins
09:57:57B4gder"ASM optimised string functions"
09:58:11B4gderlinux/arch/arm/lib/memset.S
09:58:22amiconn...unless we switch to one dir per plugin, with the same ./cpu/target sub-structure
09:58:39amiconnThat would make the number of files and dirs explode...
09:58:42B4gderthe plugins are and should be mainly app-level anyway
09:59:05amiconnYes, but that doesn't stop them to contain target or cpu dependent stuff
09:59:11B4gderno
09:59:18B4gderwe won't get rid of all #ifdefs
09:59:34B4gderthat dir separation is mainly for separating drivers and lowlevel stuff
09:59:34amiconnSeveral gfx plugins need to differentiate whether to use the grayscale lib or native gfx
09:59:53amiconnThen mandelbrot contains SH1 and coldfire optimised math functions

10:12:15amiconn(1) I would consider the sim an additional architecture. (2) For the functions that could/should be inlined, it could be useful to have .h files in the cpu/target specific dirs. Then these dirs should be made part of the include search path, depending on cpu/arch

10:13:42needleboyyou or anyone else...
10:13:45amiconn-> if you then #include "backlight_control.h" it would use the file in SH1/recorder for recorders, coldfire/H1x0 for H1x0 etc

10:14:31LinusNneedleboy: which version did you build?
10:14:44needleboylatest CVS with the Remote Control patch
10:14:48needleboyfor H300
10:14:57preglowjust be aware the compiling your own bootloader is very unsupported
10:15:04preglowmight easily brick
10:15:05needleboyI want to check the 'HOLD is ON' issue when turning on the unit with the remote
10:15:11needleboyi know...

10:16:24needleboywould any of you mind looking at the new remote patch and see if it's good for CVS?
10:16:42needleboymaybe fix the whole bootloader remote control issue?
10:16:52needleboythe guy who made the patch said it works
10:17:01Bg3rneedleboy what's its date ?
10:17:06LinusNthat won't be fixed unless we auto-detect the remote in the bootloader
10:17:28needleboyeven if it's selcted in the firmware?
10:17:35needleboyyeah... i get why not...
10:17:35LinusNof course not
10:17:43needleboyhmm
10:17:58LinusNthe bootloader doesn't use the settings in the firmware, for obvious reasons

10:21:30B4gderI'm sure

10:21:42B4gderyes, I noticed

10:21:54B4gderI guess not many people really care for linux on m68k
10:21:59preglownope
10:22:41preglowmemset doesn't use the stack at all, it seems
10:22:42amiconnI tried it once on Amiga, didn't manage to get it to work...

12:27:17linuxstbYes.
12:27:36linuxstbI don't think it's worth maintaining a wiki manual, as well as the cvs latex manual.
12:27:39tucozok, I'm installing it now
12:27:59tucozme neither, the wiki is too hard to navigate
12:28:10tucozthings tend to be forgotten in the wiki
12:28:43safetydanThe wiki manual does make it easier to update things when they happen though, and makes it easier for users to correct things

12:31:07linuxstbsafetydan: Now that the manual is in CVS, developers (and patch submitters) should be encouraged to update the cvs latex manual when adding new features. A single patch can now change both the Rockbox source and the manual.

12:41:15linuxstbPaul_The_Nerd: I think we should have some build-system magic using something like ImageMagick to convert bitmaps to different sizes for different output formats.
12:41:20Paul_The_NerdYeah
12:41:42preglowhrmph
12:41:53preglowdid the original artist never supply an .eps or something of it?
12:42:04tucozit's available as a .tif

12:42:10linuxstbrasher produced a svg version - I've not seen the output of it though.
12:42:13preglow'cuz thats what the pdf manual should use, a bitmap will make for slooow pdfs
12:42:28linuxstbIt's somewhere on www.rasher.dk
12:42:39amiconnIn fact, when the glitch occurs, Right registers as Off->Right->Off sequence
12:42:40preglowyeah, but that is a traced version
12:42:42tucozpreglow, do you think we should go for eps's instead of png's?

12:42:56linuxstbpreglow: Yes, but it may be good. As I said, I've not seen the output.

12:47:50Cassandralonux, this is a pretty busy channel. I think it's pretty rude of you to assume that people didn't just miss your question. Especially when someone *did* answer it.
12:47:52linuxstband I was just about to answer his original question....
12:48:04CassandraDamn.
12:48:12Paul_The_NerdI think he was referring to the first question, if Rockbox on iRiver was release-ready.
12:48:40preglowwhich is a good question, really
12:48:53amiconnImho it's not
12:48:54Paul_The_NerdOut of curiosity, isn't there supposed to be a "Rock" to go with the "Box" in that tif?
12:49:00LinusNamiconn: i agree
12:49:04amiconnSo many incomplete things...
12:49:09preglowwhen should we consider it finished?
12:49:19preglowwe should put a number of points in the wiki
12:49:20LinusNPaul_The_Nerd: huh?
12:49:46preglows/finished/releasable/
12:49:57tucozPaul_The_Nerd: yes, something went wrong
12:49:59CassandraNope. I think we're going to need a good 2-3 months of feature freeze and bug squashing before it's ready to go out the door.
12:49:59Paul_The_NerdLinusN: Well, when I look at the tif, I see a white background and the word "Box" without "Rock"
12:50:21LinusNPaul_The_Nerd: i assuem you use the silly "fax viewer" in windows, right?
12:50:25Paul_The_Nerdpreglow: There's a few things mentioned on the iRiverStatus page.
12:50:33amiconnSome things that come to mind: recording *from* radio screen, peakmeters in radio screen, complete multi-screen UI, properly working voice UI...
12:50:39CassandraWe're probably at the stage where we can do that, although it might be wise to give it another month or so to allow colour WPS support to mature.
12:50:47tucozPaul_The_Nerd: are you talking about the .tif, or the page I generated with latex2html?
12:50:51LinusNamiconn: s/pdif recording
12:50:54amiconnyes
12:51:04Paul_The_NerdLinusN: Well, just as a note, the .png that's in CVS looks the same way, when displayed in Firefox.
12:51:07Paul_The_Nerdtucoz: Both ,actually
12:51:16amiconnAnd recording settings: Frequency, stereo/mono...
12:51:39preglowi'd like to see the latency issue resolved
12:51:46Paul_The_NerdAre you gonna throw in that shine MP3 encoder, for when quality is of much less concern that space?
12:51:57amiconnTalking about channels: Playback channel settings, resampler that's actually usable for lower sample frequencies...
12:52:21tucozPaul_The_Nerd: I think it's firefox. Looks great in imageMagick
12:52:21amiconnOh, and fix that crossfeed for proper volume
12:52:28linuxstbPaul_The_Nerd: There is an encoder codec system in the patch tracker - but I don't think anyone's working on committing it.
12:52:37preglowhey, you're the one who swore linear interpolation would be good enough for lower sampling rates :P
12:52:44Paul_The_Nerdtucoz: Aye, even looks fine in windows paint.
12:53:02preglowbut no, the resampler has other issues as well
12:53:09Paul_The_Nerdtucoz: But windows "Image/Fax viewer" or whatever, doesn't like it. 's odd.

12:54:00safetydancontent type is text/plain
12:54:01linuxstbIt's probably just an incorrect mime type on the server.

12:55:03linuxstbIs it good enough to use in the manual?

12:58:52preglowamiconn: i can fix those settings with a similar hack to what i did for playback speed...
12:59:00CassandraRealistically all it needs is someone willing to thoroughly test Rockbox and document everything that doesn't work.
12:59:02Paul_The_NerdI think the rockbox.svg needs a little work still, personally
12:59:07safetydanlooks like it converted fine
12:59:13CassandraShouldn't take more than ten minutes, right?
12:59:44amiconnpreglow: Which settins & hack do you refer to?
13:00
13:00:03amiconnThere are more than just audio things non-working
13:00:19safetydanlinuxstb, http://iocaine.org/rockbox.eps
13:01:24CassandraThere was an attempt at building a wiki page of test scripts once, ISTR.
13:02:20preglowsafetydan: line 805 dsp.c, under an if, sure you don't lack an indent there?
13:02:54preglowamiconn: channels, stereo width
13:03:40preglowamiconn: just implementing the functions in dsp.c instead, and ifdef the original functions to not compile for iriver
13:04:20preglowamiconn: what other stuff than audio things don't work?
13:04:30preglowanything you can think of should in iriverstatus
13:04:49JdGordoncough cough... yesno patch cough cough...
13:05:37amiconnOn H1x0, only 'Car adapter mode'
13:05:44amiconnOn H300 there are more
13:05:45LinusNJdGordon: with that patch, how do you answer "yes"? by clicking left and then select?
13:06:10amiconnCar adapter mode won't work for H1x0 as it doesn't power on when plugging power
13:06:15JdGordonon all targets cept the archos 2 line 1 ye, on that one its the same as before
13:06:36amiconnFor H300 it's possible, but the bootloader has to be hooked into this entry point as well
13:06:38JdGordonthe default setting could be usersettable... or hardcoded to yes instead of no
13:06:51Paul_The_NerdI have a question: Since the ideal is simplicity (one button press for yes, rather than two) and all targets have left/right buttons, why not just make one of those "Yes?"
13:06:52safetydanpreglow, it looks fine to me
13:07:04amiconnLinusN: Would it be possible to make the bootloader pass a parameter to rockbox, indicating which way it started?
13:07:20LinusNamiconn: sure
13:08:07***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
13:08:31amiconnPaul_The_Nerd: The 'Right' button isn't always called Right, so there would still be the localisation problem
13:08:34safetydanpreglow, it's spaces in my copy, 8 in front of the if, 12 in front of the eq_process
13:08:34preglowsafetydan: it's lacking an indent here, the eq_process line comes straight under the if
13:08:39JdGordonPaul_The_Nerd: well.. it could... just _someone_ needs to decide for sure which option to use... i personally think left and right and ok to choose...
13:08:53preglowsafetydan: 8 in front of both here...
13:09:07amiconn...and furthermode, right isn't always the most logical, or convenient, button for 'yes'
13:09:19amiconnSomeone should really start working on l10n v2 :/
13:09:27safetydanpreglow, I know what it is, it's the -b flag I use when generating the patches
13:09:30JdGordonamiconn: left is yes
13:09:31Paul_The_NerdJdGordon: The problem with that is that it's still two button presses.
13:09:39JdGordonso? bg deal...
13:09:40safetydanpreglow, it means it's ignoring my extra indent for eq_process since it's just whitespace
13:09:46JdGordon.5sec will kill you?
13:09:47preglowhaha
13:09:54amiconnJdGordon: Now _that_ would be illogical
13:09:58preglowsafetydan: well, we want the extra whitespace
13:10:02LinusNthe thing about yesno is that it sometimes should be harder to select "yes" by mistake
13:10:09amiconn'Left' is usually 'back out', quite the opposite of 'yes'
13:10:34safetydanpreglow, yes, yes we do. I had trouble wrangling my editor in to leaving the existing whitespace alone so I used -b in the diff options
13:10:34amiconn...and on archos player, the left button is labeled '-'
13:10:36JdGordonamiconn: ?? look at every message box on linux/windows/mac yes is always on the left
13:10:58safetydanJdGordon, not in gnome
13:11:05JdGordonok.. so maybe not :p
13:11:34JdGordonLinusN: it can be made so the caller chooses the default? but that might not be the best option
13:11:36CassandraThose wacky Gnome guys and their need to be different.
13:11:44preglowsafetydan: have you tried compiling it for any other targets, btw?
13:11:51safetydaniPod sim
13:12:09Paul_The_Nerdpreglow: I've used v11 on iPod, and H120. Haven't tried v13.
13:12:18amiconnJdGordon: Oh, you're talking about this widget thing. Unfortunately I have to say I don't like it at all...
13:12:20preglowipod works fine
13:12:24preglowi was thinking more about archos
13:12:27Paul_The_NerdAh
13:12:37Paul_The_NerdDon't have any of those.
13:13:10peturmaybe I sound stupid but why not 'play' for yes and 'stop' for no? would at least be better than 'navi' on H3xx which makes it easy to accidentally accept...
13:13:26safetydanpreglow, I haven't installed the SH compiler so I didn't try the archos platforms
13:13:50preglowok, no biggie
13:13:52preglowi'll do it
13:14:02safetydanarchos player sim built okay
13:14:25safetydanhrm... the SDL sim does not work well with the charcell LCD units
13:16:06linuxstbWhere else is the yes/no widget needed apart from the delete file screen?
13:17:25JdGordondunno.. but it would be nice to be able to acces it in plugins...
13:17:31JdGordonu never know when ud need it
13:17:40amiconnE.g. if 'recursively insert directories' is set to ask, and then you create a playlist from a directory
13:18:24amiconn..or when 'create bookmark on stop' is set to 'ask'
13:18:42Paul_The_NerdDoes the recent patch that "warns" when you're about to overwrite a playlist in ram use it?
13:18:55Paul_The_NerdI saw it in the changelog, but it's not a situation I encounter.
13:20:20amiconnAll yes/no dialog boxes on computers also have means to operate them with the keyboard, without the need to navigate to the appropriate button
13:21:17linuxstbamiconn: Do they? I thought you had to use TAB to navigate to the appropriate button?
13:22:13peturALT-Y / ALT-N (in windows)
13:22:20Paul_The_Nerdamiconn: You mentioned that the buttons aren't always called Left/Right. I'm curious what the others are called?
13:22:21amiconnyep
13:22:37linuxstbpetur: That's windows...
13:22:46amiconnEsc is almost always 'No' as well, or 'Cancel'
13:22:49peturyeah.. sorry ;)
13:22:55peturyep
13:23:16amiconnPaul_The_Nerd: In the code, we always have BUTTON_LEFT and BUTTON_RIGHT, for simplicity
13:23:33amiconnThe player Left and Right buttons are labeled '-' and '+'
13:23:50amiconn..and the iPod has them mapped to Rew and Ffwd afaik
13:24:05Paul_The_Nerdamiconn: Do BUTTON_LEFT / RIGHT function as Prev and Next on all targets though? (During playback, I mean)
13:25:05Paul_The_NerdIf they did, you could say "Next" rather than "Right" since you're basing it on the function rather than the label.

13:26:08San_Benedettohi
13:26:13amiconnWe could have ICON_YES and ICON_NO, resembling what's actually printed on the button
13:26:13linuxstbI'm not sure I like the hard-coding of BUTTON_LEFT/BUTTON_RIGHT though - on the ipod we sometimes want to use the scrollwheel when other targets use left/right
13:26:17Paul_The_Nerdamiconn: How does the icon idea mesh with voice?
13:26:25San_Benedettocan someone tell me where can i get DOOM files for rockbox?
13:26:40amiconnPaul_The_Nerd: The yes/no requests aren't voiced (yet)
13:27:09Paul_The_Nerdamiconn: In that case, why aren't there alternate strings #ifdeffed for the various targets, out of curiosity?
13:27:12amiconnI don't know, but I'd think a blind user will be able to remember which button is yes and which is no
13:27:23Paul_The_NerdAs a stopgap until language v2?
13:27:31JdGordonamiconn: its nice... but a PITA to do...
13:27:53amiconnJdGordon: ?
13:28:02JdGordonsomeone has to draw the icons...
13:28:56amiconnNow that should be the least problem...
13:30:15linuxstbWouldn't you need to adjust the icons based on the font size?
13:30:32JdGordonfont and screen size...
13:30:48preglowSan_Benedetto: rockbox doom uses the same files as ordinary doom
13:30:55amiconnThe screen size is no problem, as the icons will be target specific anyway
13:31:39amiconnFont size is another problem, but then it is a problem for all icons
13:31:57Paul_The_NerdI don't know if it's such a problem, if it's *just* icons.
13:32:27amiconnPaul_The_Nerd: You can't #ifdef in the .lang files
13:32:50amiconnThey are processed by perl scripts
13:32:59Paul_The_NerdAaah
13:33:32linuxstbAnd is there a single voice file which works on all targets?
13:33:33Paul_The_NerdSomehow, "not being spoken by the voice" equated to "doesn't use the .lang files" in my head. I'm not sure why by this point.
13:34:29Paul_The_Nerdamiconn: In that case, my vote goes with icons as well. I don't think they need to be adjusted in terms of font size though. Most people will only need to glance at them very briefly anyway.
13:34:31amiconnlinuxstb: Currently all voice files are target independent
13:34:44amiconnThat's another thing that should be solved with l10n v2
13:35:16B4gderI do have some minor things moving in the langv2 corner
13:35:29amiconnEach platform only uses a subset of .lng and .voice
13:35:51amiconn...but both the .lng files and the .voice files contain all strings/clips
13:36:04linuxstbWhat are the other issues for l10n v2 that we couldn't simply solve by adding #ifdefs to the lang file, and producing per-target voice files? Or is adding #ifdefs not that simple?
13:36:05amiconn...which is a waste of space

13:36:47amiconnOn swcodec, quite some more menu items could be voiced, but I wouldn't do that before l10n v2
13:37:18amiconnWe have strong space constraints, especially on archos, and it's getting worse with the latest code additions...
13:40:47B4gdermy langv2 script can actually generate a lang.[ch] set
13:40:59B4gderand I have a v1tov2 conversion script somewhat working
13:41:18B4gderthe next step is a v2 version of uplang
13:41:42B4gderand fix a few bugs
13:41:50amiconnHmm. I should probably finish my .lang cleanup before v2...
13:42:06B4gderthen we can take the plunge

13:42:36amiconnYes, chunked .lng files

14:09:10Paul_The_Nerdpreglow: Is Q supposed to represent a wider range as it goes up, or down? People seem to be saying on the forums that Q is working opposite how it's described in some things they're linking. (As a note, I don't know enough about this to be sure I'm paraphrasing them properly, except the "opposite of what it describes" bit)
14:09:48amiconnHigher Q means a narrower filter
14:10:04preglowthis should come as no surprise to anyone ever having used an eq
14:10:05Paul_The_NerdSee, as far as they're saying, Higher Q is resulting in a wider one.
14:10:11preglowq is a really common unit
14:10:14preglowno
14:10:16preglowit does not
14:10:21preglowq behaves exactly as it should
14:10:24Paul_The_NerdOkay
14:10:58preglowi've listened to it myself, and i know what it should sound like
14:11:42Paul_The_NerdOkay
14:12:46Paul_The_NerdAs I said, I don't know. I just know I've seen it mentioned a few times now in threads relating to the UI. Though it could just be one person, going off their own ears and judging poorly for all I know. :)
14:13:41preglowpeople should also stop trying to do centerfreq/bandwidth calculation using q in digital filters
14:13:47preglowit won't always be right
14:13:55preglowthanks to frequency warping

14:31:38preglowbinaries for linux is kind of frowned upon
14:31:44preglowwith reason, it doesn't work universally
14:31:48Paul_The_NerdIndeed
14:34:04linuxstbWe could put a link directly to checkout the C source using viewcvs.cgi - it can just be compiled by typing "gcc -o ipod_fw ipod_fw.c"

14:35:08linuxstbAnd then compile using "gcc -o ipod_fw ipod_fw.c"
14:35:21linuxstbThat's all the compiling you need to do, unless you plan on changing Rockbox yourself.
14:35:40sam^I checked out the whole CVS thingy now
14:35:55linuxstbThen you need to type "make ipod_fw" in the tools/ directory.
14:36:09sam^thx
14:36:28linuxstbYou can then follow the Windows instructions, but instead of using the ipodpatcher.exe utility, you can use "dd".
14:37:02linuxstbYou should find which /dev/sd? device your ipod is attached as, as then read/write to the first partition - e.g. dd if=/dev/sda1 of=bootpartition.bin

14:47:01Paul_The_Nerdsam^: sda2 would be the contents of the Fat32 partition.
14:47:16Paul_The_NerdIf it's sda, you need sda1.
14:47:22sam^ah .. okay
14:48:06sam^I didn't knew that there are two partitions mounted
14:48:17Paul_The_NerdWell, sda1 isn't generally mounted.
14:48:24Paul_The_NerdIt has no file system.
14:48:50sam^-mounted ;)
14:49:01*Paul_The_Nerd grins.
14:49:27*safetydan curses real work getting in the way of rockbox

15:02:11preglowi was thinking just binding it to a spare key in the eq screen or something
15:02:16preglowso you can flash it up when you want to

15:02:56jaebird_webhowever, now I'm only getting a blank screen with backlight...not sure what happened.

15:05:37 Part NiX8916Lightning
15:05:37preglowPaul_The_Nerd: that thing doesn't take all the screen space it could, there should still be room for some axis, like a frequency axis at the bottom and a amplitude axis at the left
15:05:38Paul_The_Nerdpreglow: It was just a thought. I mean, it could easily be a negative effect, but I was thinking on 2bpp screens that using the lightest shade of gray wouldn't very negatively affect the visual.
15:05:41linuxstbsam^: Download the rockbox.zip and then extract rockbox.zip directly to the root of your FAT32 partition. This will put rockbox.ipod and the .rockbox directory in the right places.
15:05:46sam^I guess it was a fault of konqueror sorry.
15:06:11linuxstbThe safest way is on the command-line - "unzip rockbox.zip -d /mnt/ipod/" (or wherever you have mounted the fat32 partition)

15:15:01linuxstbjaebird_web: It could be a contrast problem. Try editing firmware/drivers/lcd-ipod.c to change the lcd_set_contrast() function to have the line "val=96;" as the first line.

15:25:23sam^it isn't currently possible to teach rockbox to use the ipod database?
15:25:24youngcerealthe same with charging i thing
15:25:46youngcerealif i want too charge the reboot to data transfare
15:25:54linuxstbyoungcereal: We think charging works whilst in Rockbox. Hold down the MENU button when you insert USB.
15:26:02preglowi'm pretty sure it does on nano
15:26:09youngcerealok

15:27:41preglowdoesn't that break voice ui?
15:27:46lostlogicpreglow: no, that's fixed
15:27:51preglowoh, excellent
15:27:59preglowthen i have no reservations and eagerly await your patch
15:28:04lostlogicwas the same problem as teh pitch down

15:28:44sam^w00t, rockbox supports ogg vorbis ...
15:28:51preglowhahah, yes
15:29:13sam^would like to have it support the db as well ;-)
15:29:23lostlogicsam^: so write a parser for it :)
15:29:24B4gdersam^: then you better start working
15:29:31preglowargh
15:29:34sam^when I switch on file filtering on ID3 databaste, then there's nothing currently
15:29:39preglowi hope slasheri commits the tagcache soon
15:29:46sam^seems to be for some other players
15:29:57lostlogicsam^: it's a rockbox specific database
15:30:30sam^k ... what I like about the bootloader is that I can use my old firmware as well
15:30:42linuxstbWhy would you want to do that? :)

15:31:03Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb: At least on the Nano, charging seems to fill up the battery.
15:31:41ashridaheye candy cannot be heard
15:31:53hydraheadhas anyone with debugging knowlege taken over the greyscale 4g ipod?
15:32:17linuxstbsam^: Try a backdrop image.... Copy a 176x132 .bmp file to your ipod, browse to it, hold down the select button until the "on-play" menu comes up, and select "set as backdrop".

16:00:31amiconnAnother bunch of .lang strings, voiced :/
16:00:51ep0chwell in future for codec output testing, an easy method to switch the dsp off
16:01:18preglowep0ch: a right, that should be easy with lostlogicals proposal
16:01:27preglowbut i want dsp to be always on for ordinary use
16:01:37preglowit doesn't have to do anything but convert to 16 bit, though
16:01:52ep0chhehe i'd like to manually switch the whole thing on and off :)
16:02:22peturpreglow: does the eq give any performance hit when you just run it flat?
16:02:46preglowpetur: a tiny, tiny bit
16:03:03ep0chpetur: i think the testing that i did i couldnt notice any extra boostage

16:07:23leftrightthe EQ is great thank you, the GUI is very nice, amazing what you guys can do with zero's and one's
16:07:28safetydanJava and XML weirdness is my work today
16:08:08safetydanleftright: I'm glad people find it usable. I never actually use the EQ so I just sort of made something up for the GUI :)
16:08:26B4gderhehe
16:08:38leftrightumm, the defaults that the EQ loads with are a bit weird -25 for band 3
16:08:46Paul_The_NerdYeah
16:08:52preglowhahaha
16:08:55Paul_The_NerdThe EQ should've probably bumped the config version
16:09:00preglowso the eq has been codec entirely by people who don't use an eq
16:09:14preglowcodeD
16:09:29preglowi guess 'codec' has kind of embedded itself into my fingers...
16:09:34leftrightperhaps you should try your own invention
16:09:50leftrightyou'll be pleasantly surprised
16:10:34preglowi've tried it, sure
16:10:42preglowbut i never use it for anything else than testing
16:11:38leftrightthen you are blessed with ears thst have a flat freq response, very fortunate
16:11:53preglowthat i'm not
16:11:56preglowi'm just blessed with not caring

16:12:51ep0chits fun to play with though :)
16:13:21preglowit would be with button acceleration
16:13:22peturleftright: so you've got a response curve for your ears... :D

16:18:07ep0chdid any other ideas come about for decreasing the dsp latency? i.e. having a really small buffer for dsp
16:18:24amiconnIt used to only display changes when the automatic build finished
16:19:15preglowit does a bit of both now
16:19:26preglowif a new build has just been started and you commit something, it will end up on the front page at once
16:19:41B4gderit still works like before
16:19:58Zagorafaik it updates periodically, independent of the builds

16:25:25B4gderpreglow: because of the transfer times compared to the local compile time
16:25:43preglowyeah, that's a valid point
16:25:49preglowit all depends how parallel you can make it
16:25:53B4gderyes
16:25:56lostlogicB4gder: but you could run 3 of the builds at once, to the different hosts perhaps?
16:25:56Zagorwe've got a pretty slow net connection
16:26:14amiconnWhat about distributing the different builds to several build boxes?
16:26:20B4gderwe'd need to get "make -j" to work first
16:26:29XavierGrpreglow do you know iPod's 4g y screen size?
16:26:34preglowXavierGr: 'fraid not
16:26:38preglowbut can find out
16:26:40amiconnE.g. one would build all archos builds, one would build all iriver builds etc
16:26:49t0masamiconn has a point there...
16:27:05lostlogicor what amiconn said, you could put a scriptlet on my boxen if I gave you shell access that would update and build some targets and then just send the logs and zips back
16:27:12t0masand are we using ccache yet?
16:27:14B4gderwe could do that, but the point of distcc is that it takes very little admining for the admins of the server
16:27:15XavierGrpreglow: ok then could you tell me 2 buttons that are free to change picture (up or down) in the Jpeg plugin?
16:27:15t0masthe samba thing
16:27:24preglowXavierGr: colour or non-colour?
16:27:26t0masthat would save a lot of recompiling of things that aren't changed
16:27:46preglowgrayscale is 160x128, colour/photo is 220x176
16:27:52XavierGrwell the jpeg viewer is currently for ipod 4g
16:27:57B4gderlostlogic: yes, that would make sense
16:28:16XavierGrhm okay then I should use the 160
16:28:27XavierGrand free buttons on the greyscale?
16:28:33preglowisn't that exactly the same size as h1x0?

16:29:24XavierGr(except for the default ones that scroll the pic)
16:29:27preglowfree buttons? can't you use any of them?
16:29:44amiconnXavierGr: There is no grayscale lib for the greyscale iPods yet
16:29:48preglowipod has scrollwheel left, scrollwheel right, up (menu), down(play), left(prev), right(next) and select button
16:29:54XavierGrlet me describe it:
16:29:55Paul_The_NerdAre there even *any* buttons mapped for the JPEG viewer on iPod yet?
16:30:07Paul_The_NerdI think he's asking which buttons aren't already used.
16:30:37XavierGrin the filescroller if a pic is small one and fits the screen without zoom, up and down will change pics, but if the pic is zoomed (large pictures) then we must have 2 other buttons for it.
16:30:42XavierGrWhat do you recommend?
16:31:03XavierGramiconn:really I saw some changes for it.
16:31:43XavierGrI thought it is now supported. Anyway preglow just tell me 2 buttons that are not used in jpeg plugin

16:32:01linuxstbGood idea...

16:32:38leftrightIf I load another EQ config from Saved EQ presets, it doesn't update the GUI

19:19:44preglowsince i at least know how jpeg works
19:20:12amiconnpreglow: I hope that I'm able to make things easy for you.
19:20:28NicoFRpreglow & amiconn: that would be awesome :)
19:20:31PapricaNicoFR, good =]
19:20:36amiconnI'll add xcld_color_bitmap() in addition to xlcd_gray_bitmap()
19:20:54amiconnSo switching to colour should be easy as soon as the decoder is extended
19:21:07preglowamiconn: and i _think_ just ifdefing the colour parts of jpeg out of jpeg.c should work well for targets that don't support it
19:21:27 Part tucoz
19:21:33preglowas in "isn't incredibly messy"
19:21:42amiconnIn fact that has to be done, otherwise I'm afarid the plugin will become too large for archos
19:21:45NicoFRPaprica: seems to work fine
19:21:59Paprica=]
19:22:01preglowamiconn: i know it has to be done, i'm just hoping it would be a bloody mess. i'm no big fan of ifdefs in code
19:22:10preglowwon't be...
19:22:42amiconnDo you have an idea what's the difference between standard and progressive jpeg?
19:22:56amiconnBecause, progressive isn't supported by the current decoder
19:23:09shriekrom what i know a progressive jpeg is one that is optimized for the web
19:23:22amiconnI'm wondering how much additional code it would mean to add that
19:23:48amiconnshriek: I know. I mean the internal differences of the format
19:23:53preglowi think the memory requirements are worse than the additional code
19:24:29amiconnIn what way?
19:24:38shriekamiconn: haha, i thought you might
19:25:08amiconnI mean, the jpeg plugin takes over the audio buffer anyway, and does some sort of dynamic management
19:25:33preglowyeah, you're right
19:25:49preglowit might not be a big deal, i've never made a progressive jpeg decoder
19:26:56Paul_The_NerdOut of curiosity, while poking in there, how hard would it be to change it to "Image viewer" and add BMP support?
19:27:29amiconnIf we do pseudo-dynamic allocation for some arrays which are now declared statically, we could almost double the code size before running out of plugin ram on archos
19:27:57amiconnjpeg.rock takes 26KB of the available 32KB, but code+rodata+data is only ~16KB

19:33:35Slasheripreglow: limitting how much there can be data in the pcm buffer (something like faking the pcm buffer to be smaller than it is)
19:33:46preglowSlasheri: yeah, i actually considered that a while back
19:33:48amiconnA4000/060, 80MB RAM, 60GB HD, gfx card, 18" TFT
19:33:54amiconn(shared with my new linux box)
19:34:14preglowSlasheri: and it might actually work, but i don't think it's a permanent solution to the latency problem
19:34:35preglowSlasheri: how hard is it to make all other sound settings behave the same?
19:34:47Slasheripreglow: Hmm, the other solution would require storing 32 bit samples and that would double the space required for crossfading
19:35:02Slasheripreglow: easy, just call pcmbuf_set_low_latency(true);
19:35:18preglowand then the pcm buffer is allowed to empty until it reaches the new watermark?
19:35:27Slasheriyep
19:35:39Slasheriit will be flushed immediately until the new limit is reached
19:35:42preglowso there will still be a period where there is subtantial latency
19:36:12Slasheriyes, and that latency will be exactly the pcm buffer current data size (- 0.5s or something like that)

19:45:24Paul_The_NerdOkay
19:45:25amiconnI'd think it would be good for playlist buffer, tree buffer, dircache, and voice buffer on swcodec
19:45:53amiconnNothing more; I don't want rockbox to have a real malloc(). It would open the door to complexity explosion

19:47:17preglowi don't want a general malloc to be available at all
19:47:39Paul_The_NerdOkay
19:47:41amiconnYes. Imho we should try harder to get rid of malloc in the codecs
19:47:46Slasherihmm, maybe some sort of special/simplified malloc for those few buffer reallocations would be good then
19:47:51amiconnWOuld give back 512KB of RAM
19:47:53preglowi think so
19:48:29amiconnThere already is buffer_alloc(), but it's not restartable
19:48:57linuxstbI think libfaad is the main culprit for malloc - the others are quite well tamed already.

19:49:11*preglow slaps libfaad again
19:49:13*preglow slaps libfaad again and again
19:49:14Slashericodec buffer could act as malloc pool, so malloc/realloc would always take some memory from the codec buffer and keep it contiguous

19:50:08linuxstbI can't imagine iriver users having large aac collections.
19:50:22amiconnlinuxstb: I wonder why faad is realtime on ipod while alac isn't. The rellation is quite the opposite on iriver...
19:50:55linuxstbMaybe it's gcc4 - aac was slightly faster on iriver with gcc4. And it's only just realtime on the ipod.
19:51:02amiconnDoes faad come with arm asm optimisations?
19:51:06preglowi suspect alac has something else wrong with it
19:51:13preglowlinuxstb: did you test it with null output driver?

19:54:08Paul_The_NerdI'm compiling now
19:54:21preglowlinuxstb: btw, if you're just talking about the general 64 bit math macros, gcc might be wise enough to do that itself
19:54:31linuxstbI think it probably does.
19:54:52preglowanything else would make me seriously disappointed

19:59:00linuxstbpreglow: Yes, you're right. They are being used. Ignore me.
20:00
20:03:13amiconnpreglow: First the build system supported singe-fle plugins only. Support for multi-file plugins was added later, specifically for rockboy
20:03:44amiconnAnd I think it's easier for a beginner to start a plugin when it's a single file
20:03:55amiconnNo other reasons.
20:04:06preglowyeah, sure, but that's a build system issue
20:04:25preglowit's no harder if all files are collected in one dir with the plugin name, for example
20:04:46amiconnIt is
20:05:13preglowwhy?
20:05:19amiconnYou'll have to know how to reference functions in other modules
20:05:33preglowwell, ok, it's hard for people who haven't mastered basic c...
20:05:39preglowlet's not make that a design issue
20:05:46*amiconn remembers that he didn't understand this at all when he started coding in C
20:06:07Paul_The_Nerdkkurbjun: Still Data Aborts at the exact same spot with those changes.
20:06:11amiconnWe can of course keep both ways
20:06:46preglowkkurbjun: didn't you say something about packing the structs one time?
20:07:14amiconn..but I don't think the single-file plugins existing today are too large, except those that currently contain excessive amounts of bitmaps. They should be converted to use the bmp build system instead
20:07:25kkurbjunpreglow: yes, but paul removed all the structure packing I did, turns out it wasn't needed
20:07:42kkurbjunadded some later, but it was only what Idoom had
20:07:49preglowdata has to be aligned to its natural size on arm
20:07:52preglowso it'll data abort
20:08:01preglowamiconn: well, 2k lines in a c file is too much, if you ask me
20:08:04linuxstbamiconn: Some of them are. Sudoku for example is getting unmanagable - and will be even more so if a game generator was added.
20:08:26amiconnSudoku is just 1000 lines

20:46:49XavierGrAs you said the chroma tables are there.
20:46:58XavierGrWe must expand the decoder

20:47:14XavierGrand here is the link of the patch, I updated it today.
20:47:42preglowXavierGr: it extends the plugin api, yes?
20:48:09XavierGryes because in order to optimise the directory routines I need the pointer
20:48:13preglowdo you know what the other devs think of that?

20:48:30XavierGrno?
20:48:46preglowdoes it add much to the core of rockbox?

20:49:37preglowto be expected, yes, heh
20:50:29linuxstbXavierGr: Does the fact the plugin size has been reduced to 512KB affect your patch?
20:50:33XavierGrpreglow: This patch was created 6 months ago. In this interval I changed the approach 3 times. Adding 1 function to the api make things more easy, less clattered and faster.
20:50:37XavierGrno
20:51:02*lostlogic eats slasheri's brain
20:51:12XavierGras long as the jpeg will fit in the buffer it will load it there, else a pop up appears if the user wants to stop music

20:54:57Slasherilostlogic: ah.. :/
20:55:15linuxstbPaprica: Please do.
20:55:24Slasherilostlogic: in fact i have had in mind to remove the chunks entirely and just create one very long chunk..
20:55:36Slasherii could look into that after you commit your changes
20:55:57lostlogicSlasheri: we need the chunks to feed them to the DMA, I'd think...
20:56:13Slasherilostlogic: we can feed only one chunk to the dma
20:56:26Slasheriand after buffer wraps, then feed it again..
20:57:17Slasheribut indeed, that would create some problems..
20:57:18XavierGrpreglow, note: The patch changes the names of 1 function in the dbinterface.c and .h. Because there is also a tree_get_context in there. So I renamed it to compile cleanly. (They shouldn't have the same name in the first place, they are different functions)
20:58:07linuxstblostlogic: I don't know if it's your changes or mine, but ALAC seems to be much happier now - it's realtime even when the disk is filling.

21:04:59preglowgood
21:05:01XavierGrit used a file to store the filenames temporary back then.
21:05:13Bgerpreglow the idea is to check whether the api is the same as when the plugin is compiled and if it's lower, then to reject running

21:05:34preglowi know that
21:05:38Bgerokay, sorry for my english, but you know it ...
21:05:58preglowpoint is just that adding functions at the end doesn't break anything
21:06:14Bgeryep

21:18:01preglowLear: it would
21:18:15preglowLear: i've used octave/gnuplot for making filter plots
21:18:16preglowworks fine
21:18:23LearBut if it could show the frequency response of an x-band parametric equalizer, and allow me to play with the parameters, I'd be happy.
21:18:43safetydanpreglow, is your graph code usable (i.e. could I work on integrating it?), or is too rough for that?
21:18:57preglowsafetydan: if you give me a sec to convert it to fixed point, we'll see
21:19:06preglowit's floating point right now
21:19:10XavierGrpreglow: okay but I think 2 seconds is too much what about 1?

21:26:00NightCatHi all!
21:26:05NightCatPaprica here?
21:26:12Papricayep
21:26:17adamdhello hello. am I right in thinking that the usb boot loader mode on the iRiver is there to allow access to the drive? because my PC doesn't pick anything up
21:26:38NightCatDo you know, that there is a problems with WPS?
21:26:51Papricawhat is the problem?
21:26:57safetydanpreglow, it's a feature request from the forums, I'll leave it for the moment
21:26:59lostlogicok, gotta test to make sure nothing broke from combining Slasheri's and my changes, and then I'll commit
21:27:08NightCatPaprica: But I don't know is it from margins patch or not...
21:27:16Paul_The_Nerdsafetydan: How 'bout storing the name of the last loaded EQ preset file (and if the EQs are tinkered with, replace that string with 'Custom') and use that in the tag, if you're gonna do a tag.
21:27:39NightCatPaprica: When I use WPS with tag %wd it hides status bar...
21:27:48NightCatPaprica: but
21:28:02NightCatPaprica: it writes strings like there is a status bar...
21:28:18Papricagive me the wps..
21:28:26safetydanPaul_The_Nerd, I'll put that on the TODO list
21:28:31NightCatScreenny?
21:28:33Papricano
21:28:42NightCatSec.
21:28:50Papricathe wps
21:28:51Papricaok
21:28:54preglowi still don't see the reason, wouldn't you bloody know what you've set your eq to?
21:29:14Paul_The_Nerdsafetydan: No rush, it just seems like a better way to me. ;)
21:29:17safetydanpeople are odd
21:29:19preglowi don't want to add every bell and whistle to the wps code just because the misticriver people likes crowded wps screens
21:29:26Learsmall changes aren't _that_ audible, maybe?
21:29:28safetydanif it can be customised, they want it to be customised
21:29:54lostlogicSlasheri: do we really need to hold the buffer all but 1/2s full for crossfade!?
21:30:53NightCatPaprica: And I found another bug: when you use a change color patch when you plays song it becoms the default colors...
21:31:00NightCatHere the: http://rapidshare.de/files/12766710/leo-6.wps.html
21:31:25Papricathe color patch isnt mine
21:31:33NightCatPaprica: I've don't change my WPS and it was working erlier...
21:31:45safetydanheh, button acceleration + low latency eq == fun with sound
21:31:46*Paul_The_Nerd still uses the Rockbox_Default WPS. With the peakmeter stripped.
21:31:47Slasherilostlogic: hmm, maybe not.. you can try to remove that delay :) it's only there to make sure we don't miss start of the next song
21:31:49NightCatPaprica: I know (about colors)...
21:32:36preglowsafetydan: oooooohh
21:32:40preglowsafetydan: gimmegimmegimmegimme
21:32:42lostlogicSlasheri: nod, I think I've got it working, will be committing shortly
21:32:45NightCatPaprica: But today I update cvs and patched it with margings pathc (new version from tracker)...
21:32:56Slasherilostlogic: sounds great :)
21:33:37Papricamm i know that the patch is buggy
21:33:57NightCatYou think it is a patch problem?
21:34:11Papricamm i think
21:34:16Papricai need to work on it
21:34:17Paprica..
21:34:20NightCatBut erlier it was work...
21:34:25Papricamm try without the margins
21:34:36NightCatI tried - the same...
21:34:47NightCatOr you mean without patch at all?
21:34:49Papricaand with clear source?
21:35:08NightCatWith clear source - no...
21:35:16NightCatI'll do it now...
21:35:17 Quit Paul_The_Nerd ("Leaving.")
21:35:50safetydancurrently it's just key combo acceleration on iRiver (ON + LEFT or ON + RIGHT)
21:35:53safetydanbut good enough
21:36:24preglowso it just uses larger steps when you press on?
21:36:43safetydanpretty much
21:37:03safetydan100 Hz instead of 10Hz, 1dB instead of 0.1 dB, 1 Q instead of 0.1 Q
21:37:37preglowi think a scheme that just makes the step delta dependent on a timer delta would be better, so the step gets bigger the longer you keep a button pushed, up to a limit of course
21:37:44preglowi haven't tested such a scheme, of course :>
21:37:57safetydansee, that sounds like effort
21:37:59safetydanthis was easy
21:38:02preglow:-)
21:38:06preglowi can try it myself
21:38:15preglowbtw, this graphing won't be so expensive after all
21:38:29safetydanyou can swing from 10 Hz to 1000Hz in about 5 seconds
21:38:35safetydan10000 Hz I mean

22:02:07safetydanpreglow, just looking at the best way to do that
22:02:18lostlogicep0ch: sounds broken :)
22:02:20safetydandoesn't seem right to go to low latency mode for the whole onplay menu

22:02:44t0mas"iPod: Re-written audio driver. This brings it in line with changes to pcm playback system, and also appears to fix all the ipod-specific playback glitches"

22:50:48preglowbut no, no quickie for me today
22:50:49BHSPitLappyeq graph would be cool

22:52:15preglowlike that
22:53:31CassandraWhat'd be really cool is something that takes a frequency response graph for some headphones and works out an EQ setting that gives as flat a response as possible on them.
22:53:50preglownot exactly a trivial problem
22:53:55preglowbut entirely possible
22:54:07BHSPitLappypreglow: kewl, would there be ways to throw that into a wps?
22:54:23preglowBHSPitLappy: i can't imagine why anyone would want that in a wps
22:54:30*preglow is against wps bloat
22:54:46*Cassandra imagines it'd be possible to get detailed frequency response data out of manufacturers, but I don't understand the maths well enough to write one.
22:54:49lostlogicspeaking of −− anyone heard from NathanH about his token parser?
22:55:03CassandraI'd love to have my EQ settings custom tuned to my headphones though.
22:55:30CassandraAnd that really would be a Rockbox unique feature.
22:55:57preglowCassandra: you should never trust frequency responsen acquired from manufacturers
22:56:01BHSPitLappypreglow: somebody will do it :)
22:56:06CassandraTBH all we really need is an app that will generate EQ files. Doesn't even need to run on target.
22:56:16preglowonce you have that, though, it's just a simple matter of making an inverse filter
22:56:25preglowwhich is only "trivial" if you allow it to be an fir filter
22:56:38preglowwhich would be kind of in the heavy league for a dap
22:56:52Cassandrapreglow, you have a point. But I'm not sure how else you'd get the data without professional audio testing equipment.

22:58:58preglowan fir filter is one of the two basic kinds of digital filters you have
22:59:16preglowstands for 'finite impulse response', the current eq uses iir (infinite impulse response) filters
22:59:36preglowboth because that's what traditional eqs use, and because iir filters are much cheaper than fir filters
22:59:46preglownewer eqs are starting to use linear phase fir filters, though

23:04:17t0masCassandra: are you sure you want flat sound?
23:04:22CassandraI really ought to look at the maths of audio manipulation at some point.
23:04:31t0masmost people use EQ's to pump up time freqs...
23:04:33FebsActually, I was talking about the audio editing with respect to the voice files.
23:04:40t0mas*some
23:04:40hyarionBHSPitLappy: it's not nice to shoot at people like that :/
23:04:41Cassandrat0mas, why wouldn't I? I tend to believe it's the artist's intent.
23:04:54FebsBut I DO want to work on the manual.
23:04:57BHSPitLappyhyarion: it's not nice to make people cry :'(
23:05:16CassandraFebs, oh right. Thanks. I'll keep you in mind.
23:05:23t0masCassandra: I assume the artist and his or her tech people listened to it on some setup too...
23:05:30t0masand tuned it to sound good on that
23:05:46preglowCassandra: sure, i'll do one once, but it's not a priority
23:06:01Cassandrat0mas, well, yes, but I'd assume producers try to get as flat a setup as they can.
23:06:04t0masso if you build the perfect "flat" player... you will not hear what they heard when mastering...
23:06:13t0masCassandra: no, they don't...
23:06:24t0masthey try to get the sound perfect for the greatest common divisor...
23:06:34FebsWhen I've mixed audio, we generally do the mixing on nearfield monitors, but we then listen to mixes on a small radio, headphones, and in several different cars.
23:06:36Cassandrapreglow: Cool. I'm in no great need of it.
23:06:36preglowthe greatest common divisor doesn't always hit you
23:06:39t0massometimes even just for radio...
23:06:42FebsAs well as on home systems.
23:06:43preglowfuck what they intended, listen to music like you want it
23:07:14preglowbesides, not all music is mastered by pros
23:07:19FebsThe mix ends up being a compromise. Things can sound great on the studios nearfields but complete crap on some other system.
23:07:29lostlogic*admits that pitch adjustment amuses him greatly*
23:07:30Cassandrapreglow, if you like stuff like prog, the artist's intentions can often be quite important.
23:07:35t0masFebs: and the finally masterd version is tuned to sound good on radio and home systems... and I assume now a days on ipod earbuds :)
23:07:57preglowyou can't have it sound good on everything
23:08:03preglowthere are too many nuances involved
23:08:07FebsWe had loonnngg discussions on my band's CD about how much limiting to apply.
23:08:15preglowlimiting :/
23:08:17***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
23:08:21CassandraPersonally I don't care long as they make it sound good on my Arcam Solo. ;)
23:08:21t0masfor cars you can't compress enough...
23:08:31t0masso if you're making a "car mix" cd... off you go
23:08:44t0masbut it ruines the dynamics on a high end home theatre system
23:09:11FebsYeah, I know,, preglow. We had a mix that had *great* dynamics, but listening in the car, you had to have your hand on the volume control constantly.
23:09:17adamdwhat exactly does compressing do? quieten the louder bits and raise the quieter bits?
23:09:32CassandraI'm not entirely convinced of the benefits of listening to music on a home theatre system.
23:09:38*amiconn doesn't completely understand why cars need audio compression
23:09:40Cassandraadamd, exactly.
23:09:40t0masadamd: jup
23:10:00CassandraIf you've ever tried to listen to Pink Floyd on a car system, you'll know why.
23:10:09FebsAmiconn, because the noise floor is so high. If you turn the music up loud enough to hear the quiet parts, the loud parts are overwhelming.
23:10:10t0masamiconn: because of the high amount of background noise
23:10:10amiconnThe car is practically the only environment where I can use higher volumes without disturbing others

23:12:53amiconnBHSPitLappy: I don't know about the iPod output, but the old archoses have higher max volume than the irivers. Not that I would need it; my usual listening volume (with earphones) is -40..-30 dB ...
23:13:14BHSPitLappyamiconn: it's not the volume, iPods just plain create tumors. it's as simple as that.
23:13:24*Cassandra is quite surprised by how much louder the Nano is than the iRiver.
23:13:32BHSPitLappyjiggly, apple-shaped tumors.
23:13:35ghode|afkwhat does "pcmbufdesc" mean?
23:13:44amiconnCassandra: Interesting...
23:13:50preglowamiconn: ipods have up to +6db
23:14:06lostlogicghode|afk: I should give that a better label
23:14:10preglowit does clip rather badly, though
23:14:12BHSPitLappyit means "preglow comes mondays but understands fully disk erasion so cool"
23:14:20*Cassandra listens to the Nano set about 1/2 way up the volume scale, and the iRiver at about 70%-80%.
23:14:24ghode|afklostlogic: hovering at around 68% now
23:14:26Cassandra(This is with replaygain.)
23:14:37Febsadamd, the typical user can't even figure out how to use a 5 band parametric EQ. There is NO WAY most people could do their own mixes! ;)
23:14:41amiconnpreglow: If you push the archos to +12 dB it will clip as well.
23:14:48lostlogicghode|afk: that is how many chunks of the buffer are used (since it now has variable sized chunks, I needed to monitor how many were needed so I added that to the debug)
23:14:53adamdwell I know it sounds stupid and I know it's nigh impossible but I'm sure it'd be excellent fun for there to be a release of maybe a hd-dvd full of all the different tracks... for home-mixing. now that would be fun.
23:14:57amiconnBut even at 0 dB it's louder than the iriver, for whatever reason
23:15:07lostlogichmm, I'm using EQ on my test track @59-60% boost
23:15:18lostlogicwhich is 14% higher than w/o EQ
23:15:27*Cassandra hasn't played with EQ yet.
23:15:28adamdnaw, not for everyone :P but I for one would love to do some kind of surround sound mix experimentation and I know a lot of others would. it'll never happen, but it'd be fun if it did.
23:15:32FebsMixing is an art. It would be like giving someone some cans of paint and telling them to make their own Mona Lisa.
23:16:02CassandraLike most arts, the majority of people who do it are shite.
23:16:03Bagderdevcon2006 getting mentioned on the neuros list ;-)
23:16:27CassandraDamn - must book tickets and get organised.
23:16:53adamdI just think that for anyone who fancied having a go, either to start up learning and make a career out of it or just for a bit of fun, there's no way for them to do it unless they have access to a band to record or something
23:17:04lostlogicI gotta make sure I can get a passport in time and then book tickets.
23:17:21adamdI had a bit of a surround sound craze a while ago and got bored quickly because I had nothing to play around with myself
23:17:45preglowsurround mixing sure as hell isn't easy
23:17:59preglowordinary mixing requires tons of mixing to get right
23:18:04preglows/mixing/training/
23:18:08CassandraThing is, if you think about it, surround is kind of an odd idea for music.
23:18:26CassandraI mean if you go to a gig, usually the sound is all coming from the same direction.
23:18:29preglowwell, yeah, but so was stereo ;)
23:18:35ender`still, practically everything produced in the last 10 years uses surround
23:18:45preglowender`: no?
23:18:46Cassandrapreglow, stereo makes more sense, I think.
23:19:00preglowCassandra: not all music is recorded at a gig
23:19:07ender`if nothing else, you'll hear the vocals on the center most of the time, while music plays on all speakers
23:19:48ender`then eg. during refrain, the vocals are expanded to all speakers (just connect your CD player to prologic decoder to hear this)
23:20:01adamdI think it's a fantastic idea for music. it means you're not having all the instruments mushed together in two tracks [which in most cases are nearly the same anyway, with minor stereo effects], they're more discrete, surely that means more of the information from the original multi-track master is delivered to the listener
23:20:16Cassandrapreglow, this is true - I'm just saying that surround seems a little contrived. I mean there's no form of art that involves sitting totally surrounded by musicians.
23:20:54Cassandraadamd, frankly, if you can't hear the instruments as discrete sounds, then your stereo isn't good enough.
23:20:59ender`Cassandra: at least to me, it feels better when the music is coming from all around, rather than just front
23:21:03preglowsure, no, but it's worth experimenting with
23:21:16FebsCassandra, there is if you ARE a musician!
23:21:31Febs(sitting around surrounded by musicians, that is)
23:22:13adamdlistening to a CD shouldn't be an imitation of a live gig, or "sitting surrounded by musicians". why can't it take on its own form? the feeling when you are completely immersed in the sound is, in my opinion, so much more moving than listening to anything in stereo
23:22:17adamdFebs: good point
23:22:28CassandraFebs: Well true.
23:22:52CassandraTBH the best way to enjoy a live musical performance is to take part in it.
23:23:03 Quit NightCat (Remote closed the connection)
23:23:25FebsWhether a CD should be an imitation of a live gig really depends on the type of music. Generally the goal of classical recordings is to recreate the soundstage of a concert hall.
23:23:25CassandraNow that'd be a use for the unmixed version I could relate to - cut out which ever track you wanted to perform. ;)
23:23:39preglowthey fail
23:23:49FebsOn the other hand, almost no rock recordings ever have a natural soundstage. The soundstage is created by the mixing engineer.
23:24:06ender`Febs: in that case, you can put just the echoes on the rear speakers, that'll be as close to the concert hall imitation as you can get
23:24:24preglownot all echoes come from the rera...
23:24:26preglowrear, too
23:24:26adamdI just reckon that people would have a much better opinion on surround sound music if they thought of it as a different way of listening, rather than comparing it back and forth to stereo mixes. I honestly believe it's a superior experience than listening on a stereo.
23:25:51FebsGetting back to the topic of designing EQ curves that make headphones completely flat, generally, unlike speakers, a completely flat response is not usually the goal of headphone manufacturers.
23:26:29lostlogicdo any of us have iPod 5gs −− didn't someone mention having a driver for the codec in the 5g that needed looking at?
23:27:22adamdbtw, my original question - should the usb boot loader mode make the iRiver hard drive available to windows? because if so, something's buggered here...
23:27:32preglowlostlogic: linuxstb has access to one
23:27:33adamd*usb boot loader mode
23:27:43linuxstbadamd: I think it's known that usb bootloader mode isn't perfect on the h300.
23:27:49lostlogicadamd: yes, it should
23:27:52adamdaha, okay
23:27:55lostlogicadamd: it does about 80% of the time for me
23:28:00CassandraFebs, I believe it was in the case of mine, but what's the usual goal?
23:28:06adamdit hasn't worked yet here
23:28:08XavierGryes I had problems with the USB bootloader on H300 too. (when I had an H300)
23:29:43adamdanother thing I thought I'd just ask about [not trying to be impatient.. just curious] is whether the channel selecting on the H300 is anywhere near being enabled? [swapping output from stereo to mono to "custom" etc]

23:32:03adamdlol okay
23:32:04lostlogicbut it's basically what AT&T's Natural Voices license amounts to
23:33:02lostlogicadamd: as for the channel selection, software codecs currently only have stereo far as I can see... you can crossfeed if you want to hear both channels in both ears
23:33:15adamdwhat do you mean by crossfeed
23:33:36adamdthat's the aim, it'd be useful for when sharing earphones with anybody
23:33:46lostlogicin playback settings, crossfeed mixes the channels with each other
23:33:51preglowcrossfeed wouldn't work for that
23:33:52adamdexcellent, thanks
23:33:58lostlogicno?
23:34:04adamdoh?
23:34:11preglowit feeds so little from each channel into the other
23:34:26lostlogicah, my mistake.
23:34:41preglowi'm probably going to implement channel settings and stereo width soon
23:35:03adamdahh that'd be very useful
23:35:19lostlogicwill that require changes to the pcm handling code, or is the codec always stereo, we just mix and feed identical data?
23:35:19preglowman, if this grapher would just bloody start working _now_...
23:35:27preglowmix and feed, i'd say
23:35:42preglowhmm

23:37:27Cassandralostlogic, I don't believe if it went to court AT&T could enforce their license.
23:37:38CassandraI must ask my lawyer friend about it.
23:38:20*linuxstb discovers that it one year ago yesterday that the "iriver h1x0 bootloader flashing party" happened: http://www.rockbox.org/irc/rockbox-20050206.txt
23:38:23CassandraThe problem is the fact that it's almost certainly an illegal contract term (at least under British law) and therefore unenforceable, the amount it'd cost to prove that would be huge.
23:38:57Bagder"our only recourse is to notify the AT&T attorneys of what we believe may be unauthorized use of their intellectual property."

23:47:49BagderI'd say "Rockbox" could have a hard time to act legally, since it isn't a formal organization or company

23:48:01FebsVery true.
23:48:09FebsI remember discussing that once before.
23:48:42FebsOf course, it also makes it difficult for the licensor to enforce the license, if in fact it is enforceable.
