00:50:35serohello
00:50:49seroi have a question about the ihp120
00:51:40seroi this always like this, that the line-out ist complete like the headphone
00:51:53serothat it is possible to regulate the volume??
00:52:22 Join midkay [0] (n=midkay@c-24-16-191-240.hsd1.wa.comcast.net)
00:52:35serobecause i normaly know it from other players that the line-out is an constant loud signal
00:52:39sero??
00:52:45markunsero: the volume cannot be changed independatly on the irivers
00:52:46dpassen1If I understand you correctly, then yes, the line-out is affected by the volume.
00:53:12seroi thout it is a bad mistake in the device
00:53:33markunI also think it's a bit unfortunate
00:53:38dpassen1The volume is applied digitally, though, so a 0 db volume setting is a true lineout.
00:54:01seroa true line out?
00:54:14serowhat means that, the loudesd signal??
00:54:37dpassen1It happens to be the loudest on a H120, but that is not always the case.
00:55:16*amiconn squashed that nasty dependency problem :)
00:55:26seroyes it is the loudesd, but that means that with this configure the battery is faster at low voltage
00:56:11 Quit matsl (Remote closed the connection)
00:56:46amiconnvolume shouldn't influence battery lifetime if you're only using lineout, i.e. no headphone plugged
00:56:49seroa volume off -84db is mue
00:56:59seromute
00:57:17seroreally should not?
00:57:34 Quit Thus0 ("Leaving")
00:58:15seroso to summerize this
00:58:59seroif iwant to make musik with the iriver on my amp with line-out i have to put volume to 0db for real line-out
00:59:42serobut when i want immediatly hear headphones after this i have to set volume to something human like -40db
00:59:55Paul_The_NerdYes. The iRiver firmware works the same way, it's part of how they designed the hardware.
01:00
01:00:39serothat isn't really cool, often i forget to set volume back and so i have a problem, after 3-4 times my ears are really bad shocked
01:00:41muesli-XavierGr ?
01:00:42sero:-(
01:01:33 Quit hydrahead ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
01:02:14Paul_The_Nerdsero: Unfortunately, again, it's the hardware that does this. It cannot be changed.
01:02:33seroi know that this is the hard-ware
01:02:51serobut in this way isn't it possible du reassamble it?
01:03:13seroa better solution would be fine
01:04:26Paul_The_NerdSince the volume is applied digitally, not really. The same signal is sent to both the line out and the earphone out, and there's not a way to get the audio before its volume is adjusted for just the line out, I believe.
01:05:27Mikachuyou could set the volume back to -40 every time you stop
01:05:35serocouldn't it be possible to write a small code to set the signal to max with one button
01:06:11seroin style of a panic button like when you hear it is too loud
01:06:17markunsero: I have headphone.cfg and lineout.cfg in my root..
01:06:34amiconnsero: Just press stop...
01:06:37Paul_The_Nerdsero: Yeah, if you create two config files, with just the volume lines, you could simply click on them.
01:07:12serohmm, i am not so familiar jet with rock box
01:07:18serobut it sounds good
01:07:20*amiconn has 3 .cfg files in his root to set parameters for different environments
01:07:24serook thx
01:08:51Paul_The_Nerd .cfg files are the answers to many, many questions.

02:28:12BHSPitLappyor would that not be a minor adjustment
02:28:22amiconn?
02:28:33BHSPitLappyin oscilloscope
02:28:49BHSPitLappywait, are you not talking about that plugin I'm thinking of?
02:28:52amiconnI guess you mean oscillograph...
02:29:01BHSPitLappyoops, yeah :P
02:29:02BHSPitLappysorry
02:29:11amiconnOscilloscope is not yet ported to swcodec
02:29:16BHSPitLappyoscilloSCOPE... so it'd have jiggly lines
02:29:27amiconnNo
02:29:33BHSPitLappyoh
02:30:01amiconnOscilloscope does the same as oscillograp, except it draws horizontally instead of vertically
02:30:20BHSPitLappy"* amiconn is just testing a vertical scrolling oscilloscope"
02:30:20Shadowarrior13lol, the word scope implies squiggly lines?

02:30:30amiconnOscillograph is supposed to scroll vertically so the position of the various messages makes sense
02:30:37BHSPitLappyShadowarrior13: based on every oscilloscope I've seen, yes
02:31:15amiconnHowever, it doesn't scroll on anything else that archoses and H1x0, because oscillograph uses a special hardware feature of the lcd that isn't available for the colour targets or greyscale ipods
02:31:17midkayoscilloscope is a misleading nane..
02:31:18BHSPitLappycan text not be drawn vertically?
02:31:19midkayname*
02:31:41amiconnOscilloscope uses software scrolling
02:31:42midkayBHSPitLappy, you could if you wanted to, of course.. why?
02:32:02BHSPitLappy"[amiconn] Oscillograph is supposed to scroll vertically so the position of the various messages makes sense"
02:32:21midkaywhat does that have to do with drawing text vertically?
02:32:30 Quit fiftyfour123 (Client Quit)
02:32:42amiconnThe reason why oscillograph draws vertically because this hardware roll function is only available for that direction, and back when oscillograph was written, the rockbox lcd functions were too slow to do it in software
02:32:47BHSPitLappymidkay: umm...
02:33:01BHSPitLappyamiconn: ah
02:33:05midkayBHSPitLappy, back at you..
02:33:25amiconnSo, after our lcd_update() got fast enough, I wrote oscilloscope as a complement
02:33:43BHSPitLappymidkay: ... when the graph is vertical, the text goes horizontal
02:33:58midkayBHSPitLappy, what's wrong with that? much easier to read..
02:34:30amiconnI want to port oscilloscope to swcodec as well
02:35:04qwmBHSPitLappy: you're so incredibly annoying
02:35:20midkayamiconn, that'd be cool
02:35:21amiconnThere's one more problem with the scrolling though. Right now it wouldn't scroll on iPods. I'd need a working user timer...
02:35:56BHSPitLappymidkay: because, he's writing a horizontal one..
02:36:08BHSPitLappytherefore, I asked if text could just be drawn vertically
02:36:11midkayBHSPitLappy, what's the difference? why not draw the text horizontall each way?
02:36:14amiconnOscilloscope has no texts
02:36:23midkayyou'd rotate the ipod to view it or what?
02:36:24BHSPitLappyoscillograph does :P
02:36:31midkayamiconn, the "speed: xx" text i think he means.
02:36:35BHSPitLappyyeah
02:36:45BHSPitLappyit lines up with the part of the graph that's drawing
02:36:50midkayi don't understand why he wants to put it in a harder-to-read location, though..
02:36:51amiconnYe. oscilloscope uses a constant speed
02:36:54BHSPitLappyit also gets garbled immediately
02:37:05midkayBHSPitLappy, not for me..
02:37:19BHSPitLappyhow is the corner harder to read?
02:37:19midkayor..
02:37:24BHSPitLappyit's just like starfield
02:37:28midkayyou said you wanted it vertical.
02:37:32midkaythat's not vertical, that's horizontal.
02:37:33BHSPitLappyno...
02:37:42midkayhorizontal. horizon. across. standard.
02:37:46BHSPitLappyyou're combining two different points of a conversation.
02:37:54BHSPitLappypay. more. attention. context.
02:38:05midkayi'm. trying. you're. so. nonsensical.
02:38:25BHSPitLappylearn. english.
02:38:34qwmfuck. you. Lappy.
02:38:41Paul_The_Nerd" I asked if text could just be drawn vertically"
02:38:50midkayBHSPitLappy, vertically != sitting in a corner.
02:38:52midkaylast i checked,
02:38:56Paul_The_NerdThese are your words BHSPitLappy... sounds like vertically drawn text to me
02:38:56amiconnBHSPitLappy: We can't put the text in a fixed location in oscilograph, because of how it works (on targets where it works as it's supposed to, i.e. archos and H1x0)
02:39:06BHSPitLappythose were two DIFFERENT places in a conversation
02:39:11midkayBHSPitLappy, you keep mixing them then.
02:39:22BHSPitLappyI said the corner thing once, and it died.
02:39:27BHSPitLappyyou brought it back out of context.

02:40:18midkaywhat about "vertical message"?

02:44:19BHSPitLappythe text is shaped vertically.
02:44:22amiconnWe can't put text vertically, at least not without *major* work
02:44:35BHSPitLappya good example is the build chart on rockbox.org
02:44:50midkayBHSPitLappy, you mean layered vertically? i'd call that horizontal layers..
02:44:52BHSPitLappythose device names, along the x axis... the text is vertical, to make sense
02:44:59Adityaamiconn: yes you can
02:45:03Adityayou just do text.rotate(90)
02:45:06Adityaand bam
02:45:08BHSPitLappyI have no clue why you'd call that a "layer".
02:45:14midkayon top of each other?
02:45:28amiconnAditya: Haha, how would you do that in rockbox?
02:45:32midkayBHSPitLappy, i see what you mean on the build chart..
02:45:42BHSPitLappymidkay: if text was layered, it'd be rubbish.
02:45:45midkayi don't have ANY idea why you'd want to have it drawn like that on the LCD. you couldn't even read it.
02:45:45Adityaamiconn: I didn't say it was for rockbox =P
02:45:51midkaybefore it flew off the lcd..
02:46:03BHSPitLappymidkay: run the oscillograph plugin, with sound playing
02:46:08BHSPitLappyand make the Speed message show up
02:46:23BHSPitLappyimagine the same plugin, but rotated 90 degrees... the text'd be vertical.
02:46:35BHSPitLappyas long as it was following the drawing line, at least
02:46:39Paul_The_NerdBHSPitLappy: But it's *not* exactly the same. The only reason the Speed message *moves* is because of the hardware roll
02:46:53BHSPitLappyI know... I understand that
02:47:07BHSPitLappyI'm just trying to explain to midkay what I was saying in the first place
02:47:23BHSPitLappysince we have a little communication error, it seems...
02:47:24midkayBHSPitLappy, i see what you mean - in a way, about being garbled..
02:47:25Paul_The_NerdSo, why do you want to imitate that behaviour in a horizontal version, rather than just making the text stationary?
02:47:33midkaybut i don't see why making the text vertical would fix that?
02:47:46BHSPitLappymidkay: it wouldn't, placing the text in the corner would.
02:47:58BHSPitLappythe vertical text was referring to a horizontal oscillo
02:48:23Paul_The_NerdBHSPitLappy: The vertical one, the text *can't* be placed in the corner. The horizontal one, it can.
02:48:45amiconnI'll probably combine both oscillo* plugins into one, offering both aspects
02:48:45Paul_The_NerdWell, maybe can
02:48:53BHSPitLappybut the horizontal one wouldn't even run at all on the ipod, right
02:49:17amiconnI *hope* I can do it w/o the user timer, so it will work on all targets, and also in the sims
02:49:23BHSPitLappy(because of this rolling business)
02:49:39Paul_The_NerdBHSPitLappy: The Vertical one is the one that uses the hardware roll, right?
02:49:40amiconnNo, the vertical one doesn't run corretcly
02:49:50BHSPitLappyyeah
02:50:02BHSPitLappythe hardware is top to bottom, and that's what the graph draws
02:50:09BHSPitLappy(if I understand all this correctly)
02:50:24Paul_The_NerdThe graph draws however it's told to. The graph is *moved* by the roll.
02:50:38amiconnOn iPod, it draws from top to bottom, and when it reaches the bottom, starts over at the toü
02:50:50amiconn*top
02:50:55amiconnSame on H300
02:50:57midkayBHSPitLappy, alright, the corner makes sense and always has. but a horiz oscillo - why not in the corner too?
02:51:07amiconnThat's however *not* how it's supposed to look
02:51:22Paul_The_NerdBHSPitLappy: On the H120 and others, the graph just scrolls, it doesn't reset at the top.
02:51:55amiconnIt should draw from top to bottom and then stay at the bottom and continue drawing, scrolling up the drawn graph
02:52:11amiconnIt does this correctly on archos and H1x0
02:52:39Paul_The_Nerdamiconn: Though, once per screen length there's about 4 or 5 horizontal rows of pixels that are not oscillograph data (they look random)
02:52:50Paul_The_NerdOn the h120 hardware
02:52:56BHSPitLappymidkay: it would make sense, too. I was just responding to amiconn saying "it's vertical because the messages wouldn't make sense otherwise"
02:53:28amiconnBHSPitLappy: I said it's vertical because of its history on the archos (the hardware rolling business)
02:53:31Paul_The_Nerdamiconn: Sorry, exactly 4 rows of random (or random looking) pixels, once per screen length
02:53:46BHSPitLappyamiconn: mmk
02:53:52amiconnPaul_The_Nerd: Ah, that's then a problem with the hardware roll on h1x0
02:53:58midkayBHSPitLappy, he wasn't saying it's vertical because the messages are horizontal. he said that SINCE it's vertical, the messages make sense being horizontal.
02:54:22amiconnSome parameter is probably off. I don't care much, as I plan to scrap hardware roll anyway
02:54:49BHSPitLappymidkay: either way, this conversation has been read way too much into
02:54:58Paul_The_Nerdamiconn: Okay, just thought I should report it, while I was noticing it. :)

02:55:29BHSPitLappyactually, no.
02:55:31midkayyeah, ha.
02:55:46BHSPitLappy"ah, I see" means I wanted to know.
02:56:12midkayyour interpretation, perhaps..
02:56:39amiconnPaul_The_Nerd: If you set the speed very low, you'll also notice the the display 'jumps' whenever these 4 pixels reach the top...
02:57:36BHSPitLappy"BHSPitLappy: I have brown hair. midkay: Ah, I see." does it make sense if the information wasn't of interest to the person ;)

02:59:33amiconnPaul_The_Nerd: I just checked the datasheet; this is because the LCD controller is 160x132 while the panel is 160x128

03:00:01amiconnSo there are 4 extra pixel rows in the GRAM which don't correspond to actual pixels - normally
03:00:15Paul_The_NerdGotcha
03:00:18amiconnThis means lcd_roll() can't be made work right on H1x0
03:00:24BHSPitLappy"I see the equation. I don't, however understand it."
03:00:25amiconnOne more reason to scrap it...
03:00:33midkayBHSPitLappy, that works. i said "sometimes".
03:00:38Paul_The_NerdWell, I never voted against the scrapping anyway. :)
03:01:33BHSPitLappymidkay: I don't recall ever saying "ah, I see"
03:01:52midkayBHSPitLappy, haha - nice memory, again - you didn't.

03:06:20amiconnPaul_The_Nerd: Perhaps it could be made working correctly with the area scroll feature. This would however still leave us with the problem how to roll on iPod or H300
03:07:36Paul_The_Nerdamiconn: Well, I doubt a hardware scroll is particularly necessary anyway.
03:07:55amiconnI would like to have that on H300
03:08:23amiconnI did some calculation; software scrolling will be significantly slower on H300 than on H1x0 or archos,
03:08:37Paul_The_NerdWhy's that?
03:08:43amiconneven though vertical scrolling on archos and H1x0 involves bitshifting (!)
03:09:14amiconnWhy? Larger display resolution and depth, hence much more data to move
03:09:38amiconnAnd the framebuffer is in SDRAM

03:10:16amiconnIt will takes ~13ms on H300...

03:11:47Paul_The_NerdHow is the framebuffer copied to the LCD?
03:12:34Paul_The_NerdI mean, I don't really know how anything in that part of rockbox works, but it seems a roll could be emulated fairly efficiently by changing how that step works, unless there's something special there that prevent that.
03:13:00amiconnHow do you think this would work?
03:13:27amiconnThe framebuffer data needs to be copied into the GRAM of the LCD controller
03:14:23Paul_The_NerdWell, if you
03:15:51Paul_The_NerdI honestly don't know if this would be faster, as I really don't know what you're doing to move the data quickly, and I'm not to familiar with fast hardware programming at all.
03:16:38Paul_The_NerdBut, for this example, assume you've rolled half the height of the screen. Couldn't you simply copy the bottom half of the framebuffer into the top half of either another buffer or GRAM, and then the top half into the bottom? It's one more copy (or two more, if you need to make a second framebuffer). By "top half" and "bottom half" I mean the memory that represents the top and bottom half of the pixels, rather than specifically..
03:17:02Paul_The_NerdI mean, it's probably just a stupid idea, since I don't know how things work.
03:17:39amiconnThe GRAM can't be accessed directly. It is accessed by (memory-mapped) I/O
03:17:46 Quit mikearthur (Remote closed the connection)
03:17:57Paul_The_NerdAnd a second framebuffer would be way too slow?

03:18:24amiconnA second framebuffer would mean even more copying
03:18:29Paul_The_NerdAh
03:18:37amiconnIt's the copying that is slow...
03:18:59amiconnThe 13 ms are just for moving the data in the framebuffer a few pixels in either direction
03:19:28amiconnIt would be somewhat faster when scrolling by an even amout of pixels

06:02:43BHSPitLappyPaul_The_Nerd: you're an iPodder, right?
06:02:53Paul_The_NerdBHSPitLappy: Not originally.
06:02:55gracchusI'll settle for thinking of it as 'It... is... serial'
06:03:08Paul_The_NerdI have a 'Nano, but I also have a couple iRiver players.
06:03:57BHSPitLappyPaul_The_Nerd: I'm thinking of starting a general iPod channel, you interested in participating?
06:04:25SlaytanicLemmyI am getting a 5G for rockbox tomorrow. Is there a feature available that allows you to surround a playing song with the rest of the albumn fron which it came? If not, where in the code would this go? Would it be a plugin?
06:04:28*Paul_The_Nerd shrugs.
06:04:50Paul_The_NerdBHSPitLappy: I'll set my client to auto-join it, so I'll be in there whenever I'm here, and respond there when I remember to.
06:04:58SlaytanicLemmyThis was a feature I always wanted on my Karma.
06:05:13Paul_The_NerdSlaytanicLemmy: Surround it how?
06:05:26BHSPitLappyPaul_The_Nerd: it's #ipods by the way, #ipod is pointlessly registered
06:05:43SlaytanicLemmyAs in modify the current playlist so that the songs previous on the album are before and the songs later are after.
06:05:54SlaytanicLemmyThen you could listen to the whole album
06:06:03BHSPitLappyI've never heard of such an intuitive player.
06:06:17Paul_The_NerdSlaytanicLemmy: Well, if you just click on a song in a folder, if shuffle is disabled, it will create a playlist out of that folder, in the order the songs are in that folder, and start playing the one you clicked on.
06:06:26SlaytanicLemmyAlternatively, it could jump out of the existing playlist with a bookmark and create a new playlist with the album.
06:06:29BHSPitLappyisn't the point of a playlist that you decide what order you wish to hear songs in?
06:06:42Paul_The_NerdSo, if your album is in a folder on its own, then you would have a playlist of that album, and be listening to whichever song you clicked on.
06:06:52SlaytanicLemmyI usually just randomize my whole 5000 songs.
06:07:12SlaytanicLemmySometimes, I hear a song that makes me want to listen to the whole albumn - in order.
06:07:29SlaytanicLemmyThis would be a great (although esoteric) way to do it.
06:07:56BHSPitLappySlaytanicLemmy: well, can you code? :)

06:08:15Paul_The_NerdWell, until there's a database, it can't read tags until the songs are already loaded, so you're pretty much restricted to folder options. You could Queue that song's folder, I suppose
06:08:18BHSPitLappythe general way opensource works is something gets programmed because the programmer wanted it
06:08:21SlaytanicLemmySince the source is open, I figure it is easily implementable - get the albumn - save playlist with bookmark - create new playlist from the albumn with shuffle/random off .
06:08:40BHSPitLappygreat, you know JUST how to do it then! :D
06:08:53SlaytanicLemmyRight. Where should it go?
06:09:02SlaytanicLemmyIs Rockbox modular?
06:09:21SlaytanicLemmyWould it be a plugin or a direct feature?
06:09:48BHSPitLappyprobably need to write/submit a patch
06:09:53SlaytanicLemmyI have coded in the past - C, Cobol, JCL, Perl, etc.
06:09:56BHSPitLappythat's the way of the rock
06:10:12BHSPitLappyfantastic
06:10:24BHSPitLappygrab a cvs tree!
06:10:44SlaytanicLemmyI just need to know where to begin - I don't want or really need to get into all of th hardware stuff.
06:11:18BHSPitLappylike paul said... nobody has implemented the database yet
06:11:30SlaytanicLemmyWhat is the dev environment? C or C++? And can I dev in standard Linux.
06:11:36BHSPitLappyuntil then, it can't find other songs with similar album, etc
06:11:37Paul_The_NerdYeah, so if you want to use "Album "data from the tags, you'll need to probably wait on that.
06:11:38BHSPitLappyC
06:11:51SlaytanicLemmyDatabase should not be required if things are organized into album directories.
06:11:54BHSPitLappyor write the database... ;)

06:12:10SlaytanicLemmyThanks, Paul.
06:12:18BHSPitLappySlaytanicLemmy: don't submit a patch that's dependent on your method of file organization
06:12:25Paul_The_NerdBHSPitLappy: The database is *mostly* done, if I understand correctly.
06:12:30gracchusthe crosscompiler docs are very good
06:12:47Paul_The_NerdBHSPitLappy: He could do an "Queue surrounding files" as an additional context menu choice.
06:13:07BHSPitLappytrue
06:13:13SlaytanicLemmyRight - it would be a contextual menu from the play screen.
06:13:26BHSPitLappybut I don't see that being very useful (to be applied to CVS, anyway)
06:13:36BHSPitLappymore of an as-needed thing...
06:13:39***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
06:13:45BHSPitLappy(until there's a db :))
06:14:09SlaytanicLemmyIt would just queue all of the songs in the playing song's directory into a new playlist - the hard part would be to continue playing the playing song while the playlist is altered and switched.
06:14:10Paul_The_NerdSlaytanicLemmy: There's already a context menu (if you hold Navi, or Select, or whatever the archos equivalent is) with several options. One of them is Queue, so you'd just look at how that works, and add an expanded version of it, I imagine.
06:14:27SlaytanicLemmyThanks Paul.
06:14:48SlaytanicLemmyCan I test in the simulator and get accurate results?
06:14:55BHSPitLappysure
06:15:06SlaytanicLemmySince this isn't iPod specific, it should work across players, no?
06:15:29BHSPitLappyjust filesystem polling and the existing queue function
06:15:34BHSPitLappyso it should
06:15:54Paul_The_NerdAnd there's usually people in here with various players willing to test a patch once it's at that point.
06:16:02SlaytanicLemmyWicked. I'll try and get started this weekend.
06:16:38BHSPitLappyI, however, am an iPod-specific person, so there could be some nuance I'm unaware of
06:18:18SlaytanicLemmyHow's voice menus coming along on the 'pod? Not a real hot topic, I imagine.

06:23:26SlaytanicLemmyDo all iPods have a 2nd processor capable of GP code execution?
06:23:38Paul_The_NerdSlaytanicLemmy: Well, it seems the current ideology is "Let's see how far we can go on just one" but yeah, I *believe* all ipods have two cores.
06:23:39SlaytanicLemmyOr is it just the Broadcom on the 5G
06:24:04Paul_The_NerdIt's definitely not *just* the 5g. The PP chip has two cores, if I understand.
06:24:31BHSPitLappygrr
06:24:38BHSPitLappywhy is the bootloader so stubborn :P
06:25:37SlaytanicLemmyIs it possible to make the bootloader configurable as to which OS to load by default? Or can the bootloader boot the original iPod OS?
06:26:26Paul_The_NerdIt can boot the iPod OS. You can configure it by building your own. Because Rockbox is intended as a *replacement* firmware, it'll probably never be configurable beyond "Hold Menu to start Retail"
06:26:35Paul_The_NerdBut the iPodLinux's Loader2 can be configured much more freely
06:26:59SlaytanicLemmyThanks P.
06:27:17SlaytanicLemmyDoes the CVS tree include the bootloader code, or is that separate?
06:27:32Paul_The_NerdIf you get rockbox-devel it's included
06:27:40Paul_The_NerdIf you just get rockbox you'll have to co bootloader as well
06:27:46Paul_The_Nerdand probably simulator
06:28:40SlaytanicLemmyI think I'll stick with just rockbox for now. I don't want to mess with the bootloader.
06:29:03Paul_The_NerdWell, as I said, you can use Loader 2.
06:29:09Paul_The_NerdAnd holding down Menu while booting will go into Retail
06:29:54SlaytanicLemmyDoes a reboot clear everything out? Is there state information saved to the HD that could create a cyclic crash?
06:30:49SlaytanicLemmyThat is, in the regular rockbox - not something that I may put there.
06:31:15Paul_The_NerdThere is a config block written to a sector on the HD, that can be cleared in the case of it causing a problem by turning on hold immediately after turning on your ipod.
06:31:44BHSPitLappySlaytanicLemmy: you should get rockbox-devel
06:31:45SlaytanicLemmyThanks. That would've taken me a while to figure out from the code.

06:46:47midkayaaronfg :)
06:47:27Paul_The_NerdWell, the framerate isn't going to mean so much, other than "more efficient means less time spent updating the screen, and more decoding audio"
06:49:32aaronfgany increase is fine in my book
06:49:47aaronfgwould this also help in the buffer issue on long/fast scrolling?
06:51:16BHSPitLappyno
06:51:26*BHSPitLappy guessed that.
06:51:32Paul_The_NerdProbably not
06:51:41Paul_The_NerdMaybe minimally
06:52:21aaronfgis there anyway to see battery status in the sim?
06:54:50BHSPitLappyis it a laptop?
06:55:17aaronfgno, desktop
06:55:25gracchuspcm_playback's callback_for_more seems easy to stomp...maybe that code is in transition
06:55:33aaronfgon a laptop the sim takes the laptop battery? that's pretty neat

06:58:57aaronfghey, i don't know. would be a cool thing to see
06:59:32aaronfgit's just sucky to test out WPS battery icons if you have to keep copying stuff over, ejecting the player, etc
06:59:42aaronfgi was just wondering if you could simulate battery status in the sim
07:00
07:00:03Paul_The_NerdYeah, it seems the sim should count from 1-100 on battery level with about 1/2 second for each one, or something.

07:05:41midkayit takes you that long to see that it's working? :) i can hardly imagine even needing that.. if your bitmaps are in order and looking correct, and the wps code looks right, it should be fine.. i'd say 1/2s for each at the most

09:38:28nudelRe the GUI thread, I think it would be great to allow the user to add shortcuts (to folders (or locations in the tag database) as well as to items and places in the menus), and hide existing items from, the top level menu.
09:39:25nudeland I agree with Play (or some key) always going to the WPS... after using Rockbox for a few days I still find myself wondering how the f*** I get back to the WPS :-)
09:40:19nudelIt's always good to have a "take me home" key to push when you're lost or want to quickly go back to normal, or pause the track or whatever
09:40:36 Quit kernelsensei (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
09:41:14LinusNnudel: i agree about the "take me home" button, but what exactly do you find hard to understand about how to get to the wps?
09:41:38nudelsometimes play does take me to the wps but sometimes not
09:41:52LinusNit is so essy
09:41:54LinusNeasy
09:41:57nudeli guess it's a distinction between file browser and menu, but i'm not used to that distinction because the list of files (tags) in other players *was* a menu

09:42:48LinusNfrom there you get to the wps by playing a music file, or by pressing Play
09:43:08nudelpresumably to get to WPS from <anywhere> i keep pressing menu or left until it won't go any further, then press play
09:43:16LinusNin the wps you can open the menu, end you get back to the wps by leaving the menu
09:43:54LinusNand if you enter the menu from the browser, you get back to the browser when leaving the menu
09:44:10LinusNthe menu always returns to the place from where you opened it
09:44:22 Quit linuxstb (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
09:44:27LinusNit really shouldn't be that hard to understand
09:44:30nudelit makes sense after an explanation, but IMO it's an artificial "implementation detail" type distinction between the menus and the browser... i'm not sure many users will expect it, so it'll seem like sometimes the keys do one thing and sometimes another
09:45:09nudelhmm so the menu is sort of like a windows pop-up menu in terms of functionality?
09:45:13LinusNyes
09:45:59nudelthat makes sense... it would be totally obvious if it displayed as an overlay on top of the previous screen (like a pop-up menu) on targets with the screen space... of course that kind of GUI wishing is easier said than done :)

09:51:23*Paul_The_Nerd always imagined the menu as a layer on top of things anyway.
09:51:42*LinusN too
09:51:51Paul_The_NerdThe problem is that a lot of people think of the WPS as home still. Though I don't really understand why there are people who want to see the WPS even when playback is halted.
09:52:12LinusNPaul_The_Nerd: that's beyond me too
09:52:51nudelso you can see the status of the playback... is it paused? did it stop at the end of the album? etc.
09:53:03LinusNyeah, if rockbox implements a "take-me-home" button, it would probably take you to the browser
09:53:13peturone word: GUI - people want to see eye candy the whole time, not a file browser...
09:53:34nudeland it's what you'r eused to seeing while listening to music... if i want to change albums i'm used to pressing some keys to get to the album list and selecting it. plus what petur said is absolutely true
09:53:41LinusNnudel: most people would hear that the music stopped
09:54:13Paul_The_Nerdnudel: As well, you only leave the WPS during playback if you stop the music, or if you press something to go to the filetree/menu. People have requested that stopping the music not leave the WPS.
09:55:02nudeli think it's a matter of personal preference rather than a wrong/right thing, to be honest... making the home button configurable makes everyone happy
09:55:15markunpetur: not all people (me for example)
09:56:06nudelPersonally, unless i'm *in the process of* selecting a file|menu, i don't want to see the file|menu list.
09:56:37nudelIt winds me up that on my Sony player to get back to the WPS I have to press the menu button twice then scroll to an item and select it. I've always wished it had a button I could just push to go there like the Karma has.
09:56:41JdGordoni agree /\ but unless im listening to the music i dont want to se the wps
09:59:07nudelA GUI which changes screens because the music stopped, rather than just displaying a Stop icon on the current screen/status bar (if any), doesn't seem right to me. I don't think the screen should ever change by itself without the user pushing a button.
09:59:41Paul_The_NerdI think the very name "While Playing Screen" gives away the whole screen's intention...
10:00
10:00:13nudelI don't think name should dictate function :-) Call it Playback Status Screen if you like. hehe
10:01:01Paul_The_NerdAt the moment it's more like "Name describes function"
10:01:08nudelFor me it's a bit like if Foobar2000 reached end of the last song in the playlist and then decided to open a file browser. Well, not that bad but kinda...
10:01:33Paul_The_Nerdnudel: It's like if foobar2000 closed itself at the end of a playlist, returning you to the OS.
10:01:47Paul_The_NerdIt wouldn't be opening anything, it would just be removing itself.
10:02:07nudelthat would be really annoying because i might want to continue using foobar
10:02:39 Quit JdGordon (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
10:02:58Paul_The_NerdYeah, but the big difference is, if you want to continue running rockbox, you just launch another song. It's still the same steps whether the WPS was up or not, it's just one less button press before you can browse.
10:03:04nudelI think to me the WPS *is* the player. Everything else is a menu I go into temporarily to do stuff.
10:04:06Paul_The_NerdAnd see, that's the difference. To me the WPS is information about what's playing. I mean, I could be playing a game instead. The WPS for all practical purpose is to me a popup letting me know what track is on, how far I am into it, and what's next.
10:04:08nudelTrue, but what if i want to skip back a track in the old playlist? Or just see waht the last track played was called? I guess I can press play to do that but I'd prefer not to have the screen change without me doing anything.
10:04:30nudelI guess we see things differently then. I see the WPS as the main screen and everything else as a popup. :)

10:04:57peturalso: when I switch on RB, I can press play to start playback, but I don't see what it will start playing until it plays.
10:05:13nudelIMO games are a bonus feature and shouldn't affect the music playback functionality
10:05:25Paul_The_Nerdnudel: They don't affect the music playback functionality.
10:06:03markunnudel: maybe you should write down you UI ideas
10:06:20nudelI plan to, but want to use RB as-is for a bit longer.
10:06:20Paul_The_Nerdnudel: The filetree is the "home" screen, because all the functionality sprouts from the filetree. You can't do anything until you either select a file, or resume the current playlist.
10:06:55nudelYou can resume the current playlist from the WPS
10:07:09peturPaul_The_Nerd: not exactly: the fact that radio and recording are only menu items isn't logical
10:07:14LinusNnudel: but i can't select a file
10:07:58peturone would think that the main usage scenarios are on the same level
10:07:59LinusNpetur: why isn't it logical?
10:08:15markunLinusN: you could if the filebrowser was a pop-up like the menu (not that I say it should be)
10:08:26peturbrowsing, playback, radio, recording, plugins
10:08:44nudelTrue, but I'm used to being at the WPS and if I want to select a file I open the menu (or browser in this case, but it's all just menus in my mind). If I want to open a file I'm used to, without thinking about it, pushing Menu, down, right and I'm in the file list... I don't want to think about whether or not music is currently playing and I'm on the WPS screen or the device, withotu me doing anything, changing screens
10:09:22peturmaybe use REC to toggle between 'modes'?
10:09:46peturmaybe put this on the devcon agenda? ;)
10:09:54Paul_The_NerdMaybe just don't have the WPS leave when you reach the end of a playlist.
10:10:09Paul_The_NerdWhen you hit stop though, it seems like it should definitely go back to the browser
10:10:21 Quit quobl (Remote closed the connection)
10:10:41nudelI don't have a stop button, only play/pause... And pausing definitely shouldn't go to the browser as it may be temporary.
10:10:46Paul_The_NerdI personally thing though that if no playlist is 'active' (if you aren't in play or pause state) then it doesn't make sense for the WPS to be available.
10:10:59Paul_The_Nerdnudel: Hold play/pause for about a second, and it stops.
10:11:05nudelah ok
10:11:59nudelPersonally, I'd prefer it if the screens only changed when I pushed a button (i.e. Menu), but I don't care very strongly what happens when Stop is pushed as I'll never do that. :-)
10:12:31nudelAnd if the WPS isn't the "home" screen but I can always quickly get tot he WPS by going "home" and then pressing play (or whatever), then that's fine as well.
10:12:37LinusNpersonally, i don't think it's a big deal to have the wps as the "main" screen, but at the same time i can't understand why the rockbox concept would be so hard to grasp for some people
10:13:05Paul_The_Nerdnudel: I agree the screen changing without user input is... questionable.
10:13:06nudelI'd prefer the WPS was home, or it's configurable or whatever, but I can live with pressing Play twice to get to the WPS, rather than just once.
10:13:44***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
10:14:03nudelSo long as there's some very simple action I can commit to muscle memory which will take me to the WPS from anywhere, I'm happy enough.
10:14:21Paul_The_NerdI still think it makes more sense for the file tree to be home, since that's the lowest level. The playback screen is dependent upon the choice of files, not the other way around...
10:14:22LinusNiirc, very early versions of rockbox didn't leave the wps
10:14:58LinusNand people felt it was so strange that it stayed, and didn't return to the browser
10:15:05LinusNso we changed it
10:15:33JdGordonumm... so why not just add the config optin for it?
10:15:51LinusNJdGordon: because it totally turns the rockbox internals upside down?
10:15:52nudelI see the WPS as a status screen... Mine will also display the clock and so on (once I install that patch :-)). If no file is selected it'll show a lot of blank space, which is fine as that's the current status.
10:16:24LinusNnudel: that's not how rockbox sees it
10:16:28JdGordonLinusN: why? wouldnt the wps just think music is paused/stopped? or is there omre to is?

10:18:15Jungti1234hi
10:19:31LinusNJdGordon: well, maybe i misunderstood your statement
10:19:56LinusNi think making wps the main screen would affect a large portion of the rockbox code
10:20:07JdGordoni meant, just add an option to stay in the wps at the end of the playlist.. isnt that what ppl want?
10:20:17JdGordon..not make it the "home" screen
10:20:18nudelIs it a known thing that going into disc mode (to transfer some music) resets the theme when you come back to RB? Maybe it's the same issue with other settings like bass boost also not being saved (or being reset) on the 5G iPod. I saw someone mention that.
10:20:59LinusNi think the backdrop handling has a few flaws
10:21:14Paul_The_Nerdnudel: When it goes into disk mode, it doesn't shutdown cleanly, so you lose any settings that you've changed since the last proper shutdown or save.
10:21:34LinusNJdGordon: ah, i see, well that should be possible
10:21:48LinusNnudel: ah, you have an ipod
10:21:50nudelPaul_The_Nerd: ah okay, i'll shutdown properly in future
10:22:00nudelI do, but I only just bought it for rockbox
10:22:07nudelI don't *do* non-gapless players. :-)
10:22:12LinusNhaha
10:22:27LinusNso what did you have before the ipod then?
10:22:30nudelfinally I have a 60gig gapless music player \o/
10:22:30Paul_The_Nerdnudel: All you really need to do is shutdown properly once to make sure the config block gets written. Then, as long as you don't change anything, the USB inserts shouldn't reset things, just reset them to whatever the last proper shutdown had set.

10:22:58nudelrio karma, which was great but a bit thick and 20gig wasn't enough, then i got a sony 30gig which as a music player was great (apart from lack of analogue control for scrolling large lists) but sonicstage... argh
10:23:05Paul_The_NerdTomal was the one working on the iFP-7xx port right? Has he been seen lately?
10:23:38nudeli started writing a program to convert my FLAC albums to .iso images, mount them, then send button presses to the SonicStage window and monitor its list control to wait for them to rip, so i could get my music on to the sony gaplessly...
10:24:08LinusNoh my
10:24:09nudelbut now that rockbox is ported to ipod I figure it'll be a lot less effort to ditch that sonicstage project and put my spare time effort into RB instead
10:24:31nudelin the end my 30gig sony player had about 5gig of music because it was just too much hassle, haha

11:14:13tucozamiconn, why? that is how iriver do it. It must be better ;-)
11:14:35amiconnnudel: You don't need the wps to check playback status. That's what the statusbar is for
11:15:13amiconnYou can even stop playback while being in the file browser (I'm assuming the button to do this is defined for iPod)
11:15:22nudeltrue. though there's no (last) song title in there. (though if the status bar was skinnable there coudl be :-))

11:16:31nudelI think it sums up as I'm used to 3 different devices where the WPS screen is home and everything's launched from there, but in RB the WPS screen is more like an application launched from the browser.
11:16:50nudelSo long as there's a quick way I can get to the WPS I'm happy, either way...
11:17:30nudelThough it's weird not having the WPS available at times, I'm sure I'll get used to it.
11:18:12Jungti1234ok, I sayed to them that it may not be Rockbox's problem.
11:18:45linuxstbnudel: I don't know what DAPs you have used, but it's not standard for the WPS to be the "home screen". The ipod doesn't work like that for example.
11:20:44nudelyou're right, it's been a long time since i properly used the ipod firmware (years)
11:20:57nudelthe karma's like that
11:21:24nudeland the sony sort of is (but once in the menus it's a pain to get back tot he WPS, but it's always available and never goes away unless you press Menu)
11:25:30nudelgood day all, i'm off to work (late as always :))
11:30:18linuxstbBTW, I was reading about the itunesdb database format, and apparently there is a limit of 56 utf-16 characters (112 bytes) in the filename field - so maybe that is the reason why some people are having problems with the foo_pod plugin.

12:54:34 Quit damaki (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))

12:57:33 Join c0utta [0] (n=cbad1f07@labb.contactor.se)
12:57:47linuxstbBut yes, maybe yielding in every iteration isn't necessary.
12:58:17linuxstbBut if we don't yield, then we are just wasting CPU cycles - cycles that can be used for audio decoding.
13:00
13:02:04LinusNhow many cycles are we talking about?
13:02:18linuxstbThe total delay can be up to 14ms.
13:02:22LinusNwow
13:02:45linuxstbSo we can't perform two lcd_updates closer than 14ms apart.
13:02:46lostlogiclinuxstb: ahh, ok.
13:02:52amiconnlinuxstb: That'll be "fun" for oscilloscope...
13:03:20LinusNlinuxstb: maybe keep track of the time and only delay if the update is too early?
13:03:48lostlogicLinusN: it's a poll
13:03:54linuxstbThat's more or less what we do. The start of the lcd_update_rect() function polls the broadcom chip to see if it is done.
13:04:07LinusNaha, so it isn't a "blind" delay
13:05:15linuxstblostlogic: Also, looking at your changes to lcd-ipodvideo.c, was there a reason you moved the variable declarations from the start of the function to the inner-blocks? I thought the Rockbox style was to declare variables at the start of a function.
13:05:45 Join quobl_ [0] (n=quobl@tor/session/x-3ed2751219beae1e)
13:06:05amiconnRockbox style doesn't define that. It just says variables need to be declared at the top of blocks, i.e. no C99-style declarations
13:06:18lostlogiclinuxstb: I wasn't aware of that −− the only reason is that it helps me keep track of register usage without going to the assembly.
13:06:35linuxstbI know it's not in CONTRIBUTING, but I'm just going by the existing code.
13:07:04LinusNalso, the non-c99 recommendations aren't that critical anymore, now that all targets use fairly recent gcc versions
13:07:42LinusNbut i personally don't like in-code declarations anyway
13:07:46amiconnlinuxstb: Look at the grayscale lib or xlcd. I'm declaring many variables within inner blocks
13:07:51lostlogicI guess it's also because m68k-gcc isn't smart enough to optimize register usage for variables that aren't explicitly falling out of scope but aren't used any more in a function all the time −− arm appears to be
13:10:44lostlogiclinuxstb: I just realized however that there may be some more tweaking available to me in there that will involve moving some variables back out of blocks :-P
13:11:50Nico_Phi guys
13:12:03Nico_Phas someone had a look to my updated album art patch ?
13:12:05linuxstblostlogic: :) I don't feel strongly about it anyway - I don't mind either way. It's just that I hadn't seen it very much in Rockbox (I haven't looked at amiconn's libs).
13:13:39linuxstbNico_P: I haven't looked at it, but will try to. I'm hoping that you have only temporarily move your code out of the get_metadata() function...
13:14:28Nico_Pwell it doesn't look like i cana access the file buffer from there
13:14:51linuxstbNo - you will need to pass extra parameters to the get_metadata() function.
13:15:11Nico_Pand it works the same, as i load album art from the same function that calls get_metadata()
13:15:32Nico_Pit's done at the same moment
13:16:05Nico_Pwhy is it so important to have it in get_metadata() ?
13:17:08linuxstba) Because it comes under the category of getting metadata; b) To keep playback.c as small as possible; c) To enable support for reading cover art from id3v2 tags or similar.
13:17:49Nico_Pgood points
13:17:52linuxstbBut it's a minor point - it's more important to get the code working first, and then we can try and move the code back afterwards.
13:18:05Nico_Pbut the get_metadata() will have to be moved and/or changed

13:31:40linuxstbNico_P: I've just looked briefly at your patch, and there are two potential bugs (unless I've missed something). 1) The audio buffer is a ring-buffer, so what happens when you load an image at the buffer-wraparound point? e.g. if the current pointer to the free space in the audio buffer is 50KB from the end, but you try and load a 100KB image? 2) What happens if the album art is overwritten by a subsequent track?

13:43:41t0maspreglow: hm?
13:43:44linuxstbNico_P: I'll try and find time to look at it, but one thing you will need to do is to copy the image somewhere else just before the track itself starts to get decoded.
13:43:45preglowahh, right
13:43:50t0masyours was wrong
13:43:54preglowi got a message from lilo saying my cloack name was pregw
13:43:55Nico_Plinuxstb: ok
13:43:56Nico_Pthx
13:43:57linuxstbNico_P: The WPS image buffer is probably the best place to copy it to.

13:49:38leftrightLostlogic, do you get pops/artifacts when skipping tracks
13:49:50t0masand they're thinking about adding some char (channel status?) to project participants

13:52:03leftrightLostlogic, I have tried rockbox on two seperate players, no xfade, and i get pops/artifacts when skippping tracks and during powerup, and when playing from pause

13:55:17amiconnI could do both in HydraIRC, rather flexible
13:55:39t0masyeah, I've used HydraIRC on windows...
13:55:43t0masbut it was a beta iirc

13:57:30lostlogicpops on powerup are 'normal' for both iRiver and rockbox firmware, IIRC
13:58:05safetydanCurrently the EQ history is not reset on track skip so it may cause pops

17:15:03tucozpreglow, yes. But, I normally remove that code and just keep the section layout
17:15:45tucozJust using the writer2latex source as a template.
17:16:10*amiconn highly appreeciates the documentation effort
17:17:01preglowme too
17:17:07preglowgood documentation is a good thing
17:17:12amiconnWriting documentation is a tedious task...
17:18:49tucozbut with this approach, the docs will hopefully keep theirselves up to date by just committing the docs to new features along with the feature.
17:18:51preglowyes, but i do find it entartaining at times
17:19:59*amiconn usually reads documentations, unlike many others.
17:20:07amiconn*documentation
17:20:08tucozLike, simply writing up a small doc for a plugin and commit it along with the plugins.
17:20:29amiconnBut I'm usually too lazy to write docs
17:20:54tucozI noticed when I made screenshots to some of the old plugins that a lot of those need to be adapted properly to the larger screen sizes.

17:21:24preglowindeed
17:21:29amiconntucoz: Indeed. But many devs prefer working on new ones
17:22:12tucozso I noticed. I got tempted to start working on some of those, but I think I should get the manual at least somewhat up to par with the wiki first.
17:22:17amiconnNew features ar usually more interesting, but this way we'll never get H1x0 and newer targets into release state
17:22:25Papricaoopdddd
17:22:26Papricasss

17:23:08safetydanI was happy to see that poking at oscilloscope triggered some lcd driver work
17:23:30tucozsafetydan, yes. Totally. And, probably quite rewarding to make rockbox look better and not that half baked on the newer targets.
17:23:49Papricalol what an idiot
17:23:49Paprica=\
17:23:53amiconnsafetydan: My current plan is to rewrite oscilloscope to not use a timer, but do some more intelligent frame rate adaption, then port it to swcodec
17:24:13amiconnAfter that, my idea is to combine both oscillo* plugins into one, offering both aspects
17:24:25safetydanthat sounds good to me
17:24:26amiconn..and finally scrap lcd_roll()
17:24:37safetydanI understand the original reason for two plugins, but it will be nicer to combine them
17:24:50safetydanAnd we can now say Rockbox has visualisations! :)
17:25:03amiconnIt already had, for quite some time
17:25:06CtcpIgnored 1 channel CTCP requests in 0 seconds at the last flood
17:25:06*safetydan waits for the requests to put plugin output in to the WPS...
17:25:12safetydanamiconn, for swcodec I mean
17:25:25amiconnsafetydan: There's also vu_meter waiting to be adapted...
17:26:53amiconnsafetydan: This scrolling stuff is something I was planning to do for I don't remember how long
17:26:55safetydanamiconn, well it works, but scaling it up was something for another time
17:27:27amiconnIirc these were the only functions missing for completion of the GraphicsAPI list
17:29:25amiconnRegarding visualisations in wps... the scrolling routines always scroll full screen
17:30:02amiconnPartial scrolling would be really hairy on lcd depths < 8

18:05:42tucozI am fixing the tables now, to use booktabs instead of the standard crap
18:07:06amiconnI think sans serif looks better for headlines
18:08:08tucozThat we could fix later on. We could wrap those inside a sans serif environment. But, I think we should use Times as the main font anyway.

19:51:50safetydanXavierGr, got held up by debate about code size increase for the core
19:52:00safetydanmight be better as a file manager plugin
19:52:04XavierGris it so much?
19:53:09safetydanIIRC it was 1200 bytes for coldfire, 1400 for arm and 1600 for SH
19:53:13 Part IcyStorM
19:53:22safetydannot much for the iPod/iRiver but a reasonable amount for archos
19:54:55Moosmaybe this feature justify this litle increasment
19:55:03*Moos vote for it :)
19:55:08amiconnsafetydan: Did you exclude the retry-with-copy if move fails for non-multivolume targets?

19:56:53XavierGrsafetydan: I assume that you use the audio buffer if there is no playback right?
19:57:22amiconnNo, that's not necessary
19:57:24Mikachuamiconn: if you are mr oscillograph, did you notice the text printing when changing speed looks really weird?
19:57:31safetydanXavierGr, plugin buffer only, larger buffer doesn't help that much
19:58:09XavierGrah okay
19:58:23XavierGrand what about archos that has32 kb in plugin buffer?
20:00
20:00:56amiconnsafetydan: It seems the code in flyspray isn't the latest?
20:02:14amiconnOh, and another hint: You should round down the buffer to a multiple of 512 bytes. Using a few extra bytes may slow down copying as it ends up handling partial sectors
20:03:35safetydanamiconn, no it's not the latest
20:03:43safetydanbyte size for coldfire is now 1100
20:04:01safetydanand I'll look in to rounding the buffer size as well

20:15:13tucozsolexx, does it work?
20:15:13amiconnAtm the only way is making screenshots with methods provided by the OS
20:15:24solexxtucoz: I have no idea :)
20:15:35solexxI have checked out rockbox-all
20:15:36tucozsolexx, you make a directory called build-man for instance
20:15:46tucozand then you run ../tools/configure
20:16:02solexxah, thx!
20:16:17tucozselect your player, manual build, etc and run make
20:16:21solexxdoes the target platform matter for the manual?
20:16:42tucozsolexx, the manual is very much work in progress, but that is the idea
20:17:26tucozSo yes, if you select h300 you get a manual with h300 specific details and screenshots (although lot's of info and screenshots are missing)
20:17:43safetydando the other sim targets support screenshots?
20:17:50tucozsafetydan, yes
20:17:51solexxthanks a lot. latex is complaining about undefined references but I have a 67 page pdf file
20:18:23tucozsolexx, that is expected. We (I) haven't looked at the references yet.
20:18:38solexxmaybe I will find some time to fix some things...
20:18:42safetydanodd, I wonder what's different about the player sim
20:18:45solexx...after my exams next week
20:18:49amiconntucoz: Perhaps we could add the screenshot capability to the sim code for player, as (1) the sim code holds the image as a bitmap and (2) we're focusing on the SDL sim now
20:19:11*solexx thinks there's just too much cool stuff around to do
20:19:17amiconnFor the bitmap targets, the screenshot code in the sims is the same as on the targets
20:19:22tucozamiconn, that sounds like a good idea. It is a tedious task to make screenshots anyway.
20:20:01safetydanah, that makes sense
20:20:24tucozsolexx, If you would like to start with something, I would suggest taking a look at one of the now included plugins and follow that approach to add the not-yet-added plugins to the docs
20:20:40tucozfor instance bejeweled
20:21:38solexxi'll keep that in mind
20:23:44tucozI read that nils (or what is nick is) was working on something with the docs. I would like to know what that is, so that I do not duplicate his work.

20:34:44amiconnI agree about the wps.
20:35:11amiconn(although I would be very hesitant to make a bitmapped wps the default)
20:35:33tucozAnd as we add screenshots to the manual, we need to use a default setting.

21:11:14Mikachusafetydan: just one more byte
21:12:01amiconn;-) That's not possible, instructions are word sized...
21:12:41peturamiconn: I'm gonna trigger clipping on the first max value for swcodecs, no matter what you say. I'm listening to a recent recording and there's much more clipping than I got warned about during recording. Better to be on the sensitive side.
21:12:41Mikachuaww
21:13:07Nico_Plinuxstb: you told me it would be better to copy the album art to the wps image buffer
21:13:32Nico_Pbut then do i need to load them in the audio buffer ?
21:13:43Nico_Pi'm getting a little confused
21:14:22linuxstb_I'm saying that as soon as a track starts to play, the buffer space used by the album art is freed. This means that if Rockbox fills the buffer with a new track, the album art will be overwritten.
21:14:53linuxstb_So the album art image for the current track (and only the current track) needs to be copied elsewhere.
21:15:04Nico_Pthat does happen... at least i think so because just before the end of the track, the album art is replaced by random garbage
21:15:08linuxstb_And I suggested the wps image buffer as a suitable place to copy it to.

21:16:05Nico_Pusing the wps image buffer sounds like a good idea
21:16:43Nico_Pcurrently i load the wps in audio_load_track(), almost at the same time as get_metadata()

21:56:58linuxstb_Nico_P: You may want to look at the audio_update_trackinfo() function, plus the places in playback.c where that function is called.
21:58:30safetydantucoz, it should only do that when you're playing sound

22:05:56safetydanpreglow, is it just me or do you not use the d4 register in coldfire eq?
22:06:09tucozafk
22:09:53Nico_Plinuxstb: adjusting buf_ridx seems to cut down (if not eliminate) the delay on play
22:10:24Nico_Pand i suppose you meant audio_update_trackinfo() would be a good place to copy the album art over to the wps image buffer... ?
22:11:39Nico_Pbut it's not called for the first played track

22:36:02lostlogichmph, never tried to go _from_ ASM to C, interesting task.
22:36:03safetydanYes it's pretty much a straight copy of the assembler
22:36:39preglowerror 1, acc should be signed, not unsigned
22:37:40preglowand i think there's some serious shifting you're not doing here, that needs doing
22:37:58preglowremember that the coldfire emac routines always return the top bits of the result, not the bottom ones
22:38:10safetydanah, now that's a pretty fundamental thing to miss
22:38:15preglowindeed
22:38:20safetydanshould probably have read up more on the emac
22:38:50safetydanso every add involving acc0 I need to discard the top 16 bits
22:39:52preglowmno, i'd just multiply and accumulate straight forward, then at the last step, shift the entire things 'shift' bits to the left, then save the top 32 bits of the result
22:39:58lostlogicbut the C won't even use the EMAC
22:40:14preglowlostlogic: no, it'll have to use a long long accumulator, like the arm version does
22:40:44lostlogicright, so talking about what the EMAC does effecting his C code... doesn't make sense
22:40:45preglowsafetydan: and btw, i'm not convinced the c compiler does a proper 64 bit multiply there
22:41:13lostlogicprobably have to cast to a long long on one of the vars first

23:00:43jocke1sSometimes it shows up on the desktop and under /media/ipod (/dev/sde2 I think). But writing to it doesn't allways work. And when it sometimes apperantly does work I am not sure If the changes are actually performed on the Ipod itself
23:00:53preglowcompiling libmad is pretty fast
23:00:57preglowcould try out
23:00:58safetydanpreglow, do the peak meters move in the WPS?
23:01:24amiconnCompilation of the whole sim is pretty fast on my amd64...
23:01:28lostlogicjocke1s: do you unmount it before removing it?
23:01:57safetydanalso, do either of you get a message about "Unable to open audio driver" on stderr?
23:01:58jocke1sI can not umount it. It says its busy
23:02:22preglowsafetydan: not with ALSA
23:02:24Mikachuyou should eject in addition to umounting
23:02:29preglowsafetydan: with oss it works, but output is garbled
23:02:45lostlogicjocke1s: well maybe it's busy and you shouldn't remove it until the pending writes are done... make sure you have no windows open accessing the device, and try running a sync before unplugging it even if you can't safely eject it.
23:02:49amiconnStrange...
23:03:05amiconnI can't get it to play with either of oss, alsa , esd
23:03:10lostlogicand removing it without unmounting it is probably what's causing the trouble, because then the device nodes have a hard time getting uncreated sometimes
23:03:29amiconnPlayback seems to start and counts up to 0:03 (silent), then stops
23:03:53amiconnThe sim doesn't hang though, Stop brings me back to the browser

23:33:04preglowark_112: well, no, not if you don't want to
23:33:12preglowark_112: the cvs build page has precompiled daily binaries for ipod 3g
23:33:26preglowark_112: if you truly want to build it yourself, then you are most certainly welcome to do so
23:33:27ark_112o ok, wats the address for that?
23:33:35preglowwww.rockbox.org, click cvs builds on the left
23:34:41ark_112thanx for your help guys :)
23:35:27nlstucoz: I was adding the images from the 2.4 manual back to the beginning of chapter 2 but couldnt find sutable ones for the newer targets
23:35:47tucoznls, ok. Nice.
23:36:02tucoznls, what targets are that? ipodcolor and nano?
23:36:18nlswell and the irivers :)
23:36:26tucozoh, of course :)
23:36:47tucozare that pictures _of_ the targets your thinking of?
23:37:01tucozyou're
23:37:16nlsyep the "Your Jukebox" (or whatever) in chap 2
23:37:58nlsthe pics in the simulator already have labels on them
23:37:58tucozHope I didn't break anything for you with my changes today
23:38:11ark_112the build doesnt include the bootloader
23:38:14nlsno not really
23:38:53tucozI see, maybe you could just add some image from google images for completeness and we could change the actual image later on
23:39:02ark_112??
23:39:05tucozor is that illegal perhaps?
23:39:12amiconnpreglow: Without ESD sound works in SDL, and also in Rhythmbox - but only one of them at a time
23:39:17nlsdunno..
23:39:18ark_112does someone hav a compiled version of a 3g bootloader they could email to me?
23:39:18nls.
23:39:25amiconnIf I start both, the second one doesn't play
23:39:45nlsmaybe I could check cvs history to see who added the pics
23:39:50preglowamiconn: what sound card?
23:39:55nlsto the sim
23:39:55tucoznls, so you miss images for the h300, h120/h140, ipod color and the nano?
23:40:02nlsyep
23:40:13ark_112plz?
23:40:15amiconnpreglow: Chipset integrated sound (ATI XS200)
23:40:22ark_112ipod 3g boootloader
23:40:23preglowahh, no idea, then
23:40:24tucozOk. I know there has been posted images earlier on. I go look in the wiki
23:40:32preglowa lot of those onboard sound cards are really shoddy
23:40:48nlsand the recorder v1 and v2 share image but maybe thats ok?
23:40:59ark_112?????
23:41:02tucozI am pretty sure I've seen high-res images of those players.

23:42:28tucoznls, I wouldn't know of that. I think it's ok as a starter at least. If the actual units differ (in terms of how they look) we could always change that later on

23:45:28ark_112sorry :( just no one was answering
23:45:50youngcerealno prob
23:45:57youngcerealsek please
23:46:06youngcerealmy baby is not the fastest
23:46:09preglowark_112: i have just told you it's on the cvs build page
23:46:12youngcereal;) but i love it
23:46:24nlsIt's got one for h1xx at least
23:46:30preglowor can't you get it?
23:46:48ark_112i downloaded the build but i doesnt include the bootloader
23:46:51nlsany preference on wich one we should use
23:46:58preglowwhy aren't the bootloaders for download?
23:47:12ark_112i dunno
23:47:28ark_112i cant see them
23:47:34preglowno, they're not there
23:47:40preglowi just figured they'd be since they're build
23:47:42preglowbuilt
23:47:45nlsgooglesearch for images on rockbox.org...
23:48:24ark_112o ok, they say u hav to build it ur self if u want it but i was hoping someone could email it to me
23:48:45tucoznls, not really. I think the main focus is (at this stage) to get the manual somewhat up to par with the current state of rockbox. That is, get the text right (key-presses, get rid of autogenerated crap etc)
23:50:10nlstook the h140 one 'cause it was on
23:50:14nlsin the oic
23:50:14tucoz:)
23:50:35nlsOk so keypress labels then...
23:50:36youngcerealark_112: i have sent

23:50:40*nls ducks
23:50:49tucozAh, labels also
23:50:55BHSPitLappynls: aren't you the guy that was working on video in iPL?
23:51:20nlsI'm gonna put 'em on there but what should I call 'em
23:51:29nlsBHSPitLappy: no
23:51:37nlsmirak i think?

23:51:47 Quit ark_112 ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
23:52:13tucoznls, hmm. As it isn't a screenshot, simply call it what it is. Like ipodcolor-front.png or something like that?
23:53:02tucozthen we could refer to it by the \playertype macro
23:53:45tucozor maybe not that macro, but something else.
23:54:04nlsok, and what to call the buttons like ON versus Play
23:54:20nlsor the juystick select
23:54:26nlsjoystick
23:54:34***Alert Mode OFF
23:54:56tucozThat is another issue. I wonder if we should use the terms used in the source. Like SELECT etc.

23:55:31tucozpreglow, yes
23:55:38tucozI ditched some of those
23:55:42tucozforgot about plugins
23:55:56preglowahh, that's the one i'm looking at, yes :-)
23:55:58tucozhehe
23:56:14XavierGrhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/03/07/how-to-make-a-surface-mount-soldering-iron/
23:56:15nlsbut on h300 should we go with NAVI or SELECT
23:56:43XavierGrcool! Now I have a way to mod pcb materials and smd componetnts
23:57:12 Quit damaki (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
23:57:32tucozIn my opinion, if the button is labeld NAVI, I think we should go for NAVI but otherwise I am not sure
23:57:58tucozAs the recorder etc, use F1 and so on
