00:19:26midkayif only i had a remote.. :)
00:19:50Mikachuhas anyone thought of making a twoplayer game with the remote? (i don't have one either)
00:20:04Mmmmit also provides rwps peakmeter support!
00:25:16Paul_The_NerdMikachu: I *think* one of the old snakes games or something was two player with a remote.
00:25:23*Paul_The_Nerd wishes his remote wasn't broken.
00:25:42Paul_The_NerdI've killed two H100 LCD remotes because I'm horribly clumsy and manage to snag my cable on things.

00:31:46midkayPaul_The_Nerd, wormlet supported 2 player, but it was via the archos remote.. no LCD; one player used the archos keypad, another used the remote, they both used the device's LCD.
00:32:30 Join Nico_P [0] (n=nico404@rob92-6-82-231-243-63.fbx.proxad.net)
00:33:26Paul_The_Nerdmidkay: Yeah, I'd assumed the statement wasn't about two-player two-screen games. Not necessarily the best assumption, but I can see whoever gets the LCD-remote screen as having a disadvantage anyway.
00:34:06midkayPaul_The_Nerd, yeah.. adapting wormlet to the other models would be a nice challenge.. maybe i'll try soon :)
00:35:15amiconnWormlet even supports 3 players...
00:35:31midkayamiconn, i thought so - up/down, left/right, and then the remote?
00:35:47amiconn...but is a nightmare to adapt to other targets because of the button handling
00:36:10amiconnI tried it back when doing my plugin frenzy for Ondio, but gave up
00:36:24midkayamiconn, ouch, if you give up, it's gotta be impossible.. ;)

00:36:34amiconnUnlike other plugins, wormlet has the button handling all over the place
00:36:43midkayhmm :\
00:36:56amiconnI think it would be easier to rewrite wormlet than to adapt it
00:37:10midkayhaha. i'd like to have a look, but anyways.. bbiab. :)

01:47:36moodelynbig screens are good for lists
01:48:02moodelynthere's not much more you need in a WPS though... (well, that one's not finished but needs volume display etc., and going to add the EQ display patch in a separate version if it works for me

04:38:52BHSPitLappysharpe: there's several good reasons to /ignore midkay
04:38:57sharpelol
04:39:07midkayBHSPitLappy, why haven't you done it then?
04:39:35BHSPitLappymidkay: I have, but I eventually lift my /ignores...
04:39:45sharpeoh the love...
04:39:56BHSPitLappyjust saying, quit being a bitch to sharpe and live up to your own expectations of others
04:40:56midkayBHSPitLappy, i mean, why am i not still there? why would you remove it? and.. hi.. if you can't tell i was kidding, you must be an idiot (that wouldn't surprise me)..
04:42:16BHSPitLappymidkay: if someone is always kidding, then are they?
04:42:34BHSPitLappyconsider that.
04:43:54midkayBHSPitLappy, considering.. considering.. hmm.. if someone were always kidding, then they wouldn't really be kidding, no.
04:44:55BHSPitLappyI haven't witnessed you -not- being sarcastic or spiteful, so I have no reason to believe that's not the actual 'you'
04:45:29sharpeeh, i guess i'll just set the limit to 128 max zip entries viewed...
04:47:46midkayBHSPitLappy, i haven't witnessed you -not- being a know-it-all correct-it-all bitch, so I have no reason to believe you're more than just a haughty little boy.
04:51:52BHSPitLappyw00t, it worked!
04:55:00sharpeeh, this sucks... can't malloc for plugins... :(
04:55:45midkaysharpe, i'm unfamiliar with that, but you can always add it to the plugin api if it's a rockbox thing (plugin.c/.h)
04:56:07sharpetrue...
04:56:56Paul_The_NerdGenerally, you're expected to try to avoid malloc when possible.
04:57:40sharpei think it's going to be hard to do without malloc when deflating a zip...
04:58:48Paul_The_NerdYeah, and I know malloc-like things are done elsewhere, I just don't remember where.
05:00
05:00:31sharpefrom what i've thought of, using the plugin buffer and like, having a malloc function for that... just the idea i had though...
05:03:04Paul_The_NerdWell in that case, couldn't you just use large statically-sized arrays / structures / whatever you need? Since either way you have the same size limits...
05:03:51sharpei suppose, since that's what i've ended up doing with the zip entry listing... just a static array
05:03:51BHSPitLappysharpe: so this will just be a viewer, and its gui is another file browser?
05:04:01sharpeessentially, i suppose...
05:05:26sharpewow, i just figured out the easier way to getting the little flashlight think off it's clip thing...
05:06:02sharpeum... little flashlight thing...
05:06:25BHSPitLappythanks, THAT really clarified the first statement
05:06:54sharpeyes, i have the ability to make inanimate objects senient.

05:15:29sharpei wouldn't have much use for it either...
05:15:54midkaysharpe, it'd be cool - i wouldn't have a use for it either, or not very often, but there must be people who would use it if they could :)

09:26:38Bgerheh, be sure that someone (not willing to be nick-anonymous) will take the idea and implement it
09:26:58midkayso pointless, though..

09:28:51midkayamiconn, hey :) i had a look at wormlet and am adapting it to other targets.. i was wondering if you had any idea why i might get random crashes when i play it on my ipod..
09:29:13Jungti1234oops
09:29:20Jungti1234midkay, error
09:29:27midkayJungti1234, what was it?
09:30:20amiconnmidkay: Not at all. Wormlet shouldn't have data alignment problems as the SH requires strict alignment the same way as the arm
09:30:44midkayamiconn, hmm.. i'm baffled..
09:39:15amiconnUgh. There are *17* plugins not mentioned in PluginIndex
09:39:33midkayamiconn, whoa.. i noticed a few (like maybe five).. but.. wow..

09:44:27midkayoh, cool. :)
09:45:07midkayamiconn, if you're interested in some bloat.. togglable cursor and wipe direction would be potentially nice options
09:45:23amiconnGive me some free buttons :)
09:45:25Jungti1234hmm.. midkay
09:45:36Jungti1234It's so small.
09:45:39midkayamiconn, i don't believe PLAY|LEFT|SELECT|MENU is used yet :)
09:45:59midkayJungti1234, really? should be ok-sized.. except the worm is probably tiny.
09:46:07midkayi tried to make the blocks/food a good size.
09:46:11amiconnI don't know what buttons can be used together on iPod
09:46:16Jungti1234very small
09:46:19midkayamiconn, all of them, i think.
09:46:26amiconnBoth on archos and iriver there are constraints
09:46:28midkayJungti1234, the worm, right?

09:46:38Jungti1234worm, block
09:46:44Paul_The_Nerdamiconn: At the very least, select works with anything]
09:46:58midkayamiconn, if you changed speed selection to scrolling on the ipods.. you'd have LEFT/RIGHT/PLAY all free..
09:47:02Jungti1234midkay: Enlarge double.
09:47:10midkayJungti1234, what exactly?
09:47:28amiconnmidkay: I want to keep the ability to adjust volume
09:47:38midkayamiconn, oh, i didn't realize that was possible.
09:48:04amiconnI consider this a valuable feature in visualisation plugins.
09:48:16Jungti1234midkay: Enlarge size double of worm and block.
09:48:18midkayamiconn, i guess we've got no choice but to add delicious animated menus with gradients and transparency and fading and antialiasing and a variety of other visual treats. darn. ;)
09:48:23Jungti1234x2
09:48:46Jungti1234And there is bug.
09:48:58midkayJungti1234, the block and food are both easy to change the size of. but the worm is harder.. the way the plugin does collisions is a bit weird, but i didn't look at it very carefully yet..
09:49:01midkayJungti1234, what is it?
09:49:24Jungti1234If I press right button when I'm going to right, it crashed.
09:49:40midkayreally? hmm
09:49:52Jungti1234oops
09:49:56Jungti1234no right
09:50:08Jungti1234If I press 'left' button when I'm going to right, it crashed.
09:50:19midkayif you're going left and you press right, you eat yourself, yes.. weird, but not something i'm going to touch yet. :)
09:50:26amiconnmidkay: Should I add stubs for the missing plugins and indicate the targets which the plugins are running on?
09:50:53midkayamiconn, that sounds good.. at least so we have a complete listing..
09:50:56Jungti1234midkay: yes. hahaha
09:51:35Jungti1234It eats itself.
09:52:10midkayJungti1234, :D hm, i'd like to add a blood splatter effect when a worm eats another or itself. :)
09:52:32Jungti1234:D
09:52:45midkaya massive blood/worm chunk explosion extraordinare.. from 3 seperate angles.
09:53:06Paul_The_NerdHahaha
09:53:31Paul_The_NerdFully rendered in 3D with raytraced specular and diffuse lighting, etc etc?
09:53:49BHSPitLappydon't forget technicolor
09:54:11midkayPaul_The_Nerd, exactly. the screen could split up and the explosion would replay a few times in ultra slow motion.. maybe an animated camera zooming by and through the volumetric blood..
09:54:31midkayand then back to the simple 2d flatshaded game. :)

10:32:25drspoonamiconn: i agree - i meant on plugbox whilst i develop (hopefully to be commitable in 3 weeks or so)
10:33:15midkaythat reminds me.. anyone know what's up with the PluginRoboracers in PluginIndex?.. no code, no compiled tests, no description.. just a screenshot.

10:35:07Jungti1234korean
10:36:02midkayJungti1234, cool. :)
10:36:14midkayi wish i knew the answer to these bugs..
10:36:15amiconnmidkay: Imho that shouldn't be there. Removing the CategoryPlugin line from PluginRoboracers should get rid of it
10:36:51midkayamiconn, i thought so but didn't want to touch it when i reworked the PluginIndex page..

10:41:13nudelwhat's Xobox? I looked in the source and saw stuff about balls and infected areas (I had that once, had to go to the doctor for some cream) but I still don't know what kidn of game it is. :)

10:42:50Papricawhat*
10:42:56midkaynudel, i have no idea really. ;)
10:43:02safetydanPaprica, I don't think you did anything wrong. Something's up with the build system.
10:43:20midkaycheck out the errors and see if they're legit?
10:43:26Jungti1234It is normal
10:43:28midkayoh.
10:43:30t0masI'm looking at them
10:43:33midkayweird.
10:43:36Papricaok
10:43:48Jungti1234make: *** No targets. Stop.
10:43:53safetydanSomehow the build system is running on a read only filesystem... which isn't going to work obviously
10:44:57Papricabalh why in my commit =\

10:45:27t0mastrouble on your server
10:45:39t0masas in 100% disk usage on /home and /film
10:45:55t0maserm /film = /video2
10:47:00t0mashmz...
10:47:04t0masccache is eating diskspace
10:47:14nudelAnyone know if the new tag database will be cached in memory? It's a bit annoying having to wait for disk spin-up when browsing folders. (I know the karma at least always kept the file list in memory... which was an issue for people who upgraded teh HDD as it would eat away at the playback buffer)
10:48:17amiconnIt can do both. If you enable dircache, the tagcache will also be in ram
10:48:32CtcpIgnored 1 channel CTCP requests in 0 seconds at the last flood
10:48:32*amiconn doesn't use dircache
10:48:38safetydannudel, do you have dircache on?
10:48:39midkayno news on tagcache on ipods, right?
10:48:39nudeloh, there's already a dircache
10:48:45nudeli hadn't realised, sorry
10:48:50nudelI need to RTFM
10:48:52safetydanmidkay, no news on tagcache anywhere :)
10:49:01midkayhaha.
10:49:04midkayblast!! ;)
10:49:12safetydanWhen it comes, it'll be for all targets.
10:49:13amiconnnudel: No M to RTF yet
10:49:43amiconndircache is fairly new, and certainly unsuitable for the archoses
10:50:32amiconnIt might be that dircache has issues on iPod
10:51:03nudelok
10:51:14amiconnI cannot know for sure as I have no iPod, but dircache might have data alignment problems. Coldfire doesn't care, but arm does
10:51:22midkayfwiw, using dircache here on my ipod 5g - working fine, no problems.
10:51:30amiconnok
10:51:36Slasheriamiconn: it had but that has been fixed now
10:54:01amiconnt0mas: I don't see excessive disk space usage from the distributed build client.
10:54:25amiconndu -s /home/rbclient : 261MB
10:54:48t0masccache
10:54:54t0masit can grow to 1 gb
10:54:58t0massources take < 100 mb
10:55:07t0masso the diskuasage limit should be around 1,1 GB
10:55:09amiconnccache stores data in the user's home dir, so that's included
10:55:26t0masyes, but linuxstb_'s server has been in testing for all targets since the beginning
10:55:29t0masso his ccache is bigger
10:55:40amiconnYe ok.
10:55:56amiconn1GB should be no problem with today's disks...
10:55:57t0masstandard limit is 1 gb
10:56:06Kilohurtit's amazing how big kernel 2.6.x is
10:56:10t0masI'll change it to 500 mb for him
10:57:18Slasherit0mas: btw, could it be possible to store the ccache data elsewhere from the user's home directory?
10:57:25t0masyes
10:57:45t0masyou have a preferred place?
10:57:47Slasherithat way there wouldn't be need to every day consume much of the disk space with incremental daily backups i have
10:57:58Slasherihmm, just a moment and i will check
10:58:10t0masok, sounds like a good idea
10:58:18t0masfor linuxstb_:
10:58:19t0mascache size 780.3 Mbytes
10:58:19t0masmax cache size 976.6 Mbytes
10:59:37Slasherit0mas: /stuff/work should be fine for that, just create some directory in there (it's world writable and excluded from all backups)
10:59:46t0masok

11:20:13safetydanWouldn't it be better to move the image placement in the display WPS tag and not the preload tag?
11:20:53safetydanSo %xl|a|filename.bmp| and %xd|a|x|y| instead of %xl|a|filename.bmp|x|y| and %xd|a|
11:21:44moda|DOOFmidkay: like, have the battery show up normally.....

12:37:23zoneoutPaul_The_Nerd: Doesn't seem to work.
12:37:43zoneoutwhere's the theme config saved?
12:37:47midkayzoneout, you need to power it on and immediately turn on the hold switch.
12:38:00midkayworked for me earlier today.
12:38:08midkayaccident, no less. :)

12:38:21nudeli think you can also do it by disconnecting from USB while hold is in place (which would explain why i accidentally reset my config twice)

13:46:56amiconnIt works, but is horribly slow
13:47:10linuxstbt0mas: I guess it's hard to tell the difference between a build that failed due to build server problems, and a build that failed due to bugs in the code.
13:47:18MikachuJdGordon: no, it shouldn't
13:47:29Mikachuamiconn: did you add -C?
13:47:43amiconnThe x11 player sim is barely usable. SDL is out of question
13:47:58t0maslinuxstb: almost impossible
13:48:03linuxstbamiconn: Is this on a local network?
13:48:06t0masif the server responds fine, we can only assume it builds
13:49:01linuxstbt0mas: One option would be to make the build server compile a small test program before each build. But I'm not sure if it's worth the effort, and that may not catch all problems anyway.
13:49:01amiconnlinuxstb: No, between two different ADSL-connected locations

14:06:01Paul_The_NerdI still kinda wish I knew what had caused it. But hey, it's gone, and as long as it stays that way, it's no concern of mine, 'eh?
14:06:26Massa1Is there somebody here with knowledge in how the gui_wps screens work?
14:06:41amiconnPaul_The_Nerd: What system
14:06:43amiconn?
14:07:05amiconnBuilding clean for iPod nano takes ~70 sec on my amd64
14:07:19amiconn(including 'make zip')

14:16:13Massa1There are a lot of places in the sources around, where the macro FOR_NB_SCREENS has been used. This is to form a loop over the screen of the main device and the remote (if possible).
14:16:42Paul_The_NerdNimsoft: While I think some experimenting has been done, as far as I know it's not in a usable state yet (won't play music, etc)
14:16:52Nimsoftaww :(
14:17:10Massa1Then a function will be called (e.g. wps_reset) and the corresponding gui_wps structure will be given as parameter.
14:17:31Nimsofthopefully once it's functional it'll convince me not to give up with the iPod altogether
14:17:35Massa1I want to know if it's possible inside such a function to detect which is the remote and which is the main screen...

14:19:02Nimsoftsmall, light, good battery life, looks fairly nice
14:19:06amiconnMassa1: The purpose of the gui code is that you shouldn't need to care which screen is which, or how many screens there are
14:19:19Massa1Mmmm: thanks - that would work!
14:20:03Nimsoftif the EQs worked and they had seamless tracks I wouldn't give any other players a second thought
14:20:18Massa1amiconn: I just found (another) problem with the backdrop being erased. You know why? Because there is no difference between remote and main screen and loading a new rwps clears the backdrop (of the main display)
14:20:19MmmmI've been doing a lot of work with the gui system recently...it's really quite clever!
14:20:21linuxstbPaul_The_Nerd: The same complaints can be made of every DAP apart from the Rio Karma...
14:20:21Nimsoftbut it seems apple are *still* ignoring these pretty important features
14:20:44muesli__Massa1 cos u reached 9th position only ;-p
14:21:15amiconnNimsoft: What *I* don't get is that so many current (and almost-current) DAPs have no gapless playback
14:21:17Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb: Well, some have better EQs than others. Some have more codec support than the iPod as well. The Karma really has the biggest advantage in the EQ and gapless categories though. Dunno what codecs it supports, honestly.
14:21:25NimsoftI know it bugs the crap out of me
14:21:35NimsoftI get around it by having all my mixes as one file
14:21:36amiconnThe years-old archoses all had gapless playback with stock firmware...
14:21:51Nimsoftannoying yes, but not too bad with a scroll wheel as you can scrub quickly and accurately
14:22:01NimsoftI cant stand the crappy controls found on most other DAPs
14:22:03Massa1Mmmm: as far as I understand the backdrop code does not fit very well in the rest of the gui code
14:22:11JdGordonbah, gapless is only needed if u listen to pink floyd, or live recordings :p
14:22:15MmmmMassaa: you can clear a single screen only by passing a particular struct into the function and then using display->clearscreen

14:24:11MmmmMassa1: ahh..looks like it needs a rewrite then eh? :)
14:24:14linuxstbMassa1: Please feel free to improve that WPS backdrop handling. I implemented it originally, without knowing very much at all about that part of Rockbox.
14:24:28linuxstbSo I know it's far from perfect...
14:24:49Massa1In my oppinion it either has to be put into the gui_wps structure (I don't know if it make sense - a remote will never get a backdrop, will it?)
14:25:00Mikachuhm, reading the original xonix code isn't easy, all variable and function names are in polish
14:25:20Massa1Or it has to check which screen it currently handles and only react if it's the main screen.
14:25:32linuxstbMassa1: It's possible that in the future Rockbox will support devices with greyscale or colour remotes - so remote backdrops would make sense.
14:25:41Paul_The_NerdIs the H300 remote mono?
14:25:44MmmmMassa1:you never know..a future target may have a funky remote that can cope with backdrops!
14:25:45*Paul_The_Nerd has never seen one.

14:27:20Paul_The_NerdI just know misticaudio was selling them for $70
14:27:28Massa1linuxstb: O.K. then I try to change it and move the backdrop handling inside the gui_wps structure. I didn't have a deeper look. But it should not be too hard :)
14:27:28Paul_The_NerdI'm not sure I'd pay twice as much for a better button layout.

14:29:59Massa1Mmmm: peakmeter is a good cue: would it be possible to add margins for it similar to the peakmeter?
14:30:13Mmmmyuo mean progress bar?
14:30:24Massa1Mmmm: of course :o
14:30:30Paul_The_NerdBger: The cable snagged on a doorknob. Pulled itself out of the unit. Tried a friend's remote, the unit itself is fine. My remote just doesn't show anything and no audio comes through.
14:30:50Mmmmshould be...the code is there for specifying its width and position already..just needs putting into the WPS code!

14:31:46MmmmBger..you're a remote man right?? as in..you use one i mean! :D

14:51:47linuxstbMassa1: Are you talking about the album art patch?
14:52:06Massa1linuxstb: yes ;)
14:53:05linuxstbIMO, the album art bitmap name doesn't need to be configurable. But if you insist, then could it be a global setting (set via the theme .cfg file), rather than part of the WPS?
14:53:34linuxstbOr are you thinking of a dynamically generated name based on information in the tags?
14:54:50Massa1linuxstb: there is a dispute around for WPS creators: some like 75x75 bitmaps, some like 90x90 bitmaps, some like 100x100 bitmaps, some like 125x125 bitmaps.
14:55:55nudelwould it be silly for the firmware to scale images down to fit a size specified in the WPS?
14:57:14Massa1nudel: would be nice, but you need could scaling code - and for that you need knowledge in image handling ;)
14:57:18nudeli don't think any fixed size is good since the ideal will be differnet for different devices. one idea is files named _100 _75 etc. so people can populate the drive with different sized images but that's also a pain for the user... if they could simply supply an image and RB scales it...
14:57:24Paul_The_NerdMassa1: Why not have them set the size in the WPS. For example %c|X|Y|size| and then it looks for coversize.bmp (so, for 100x100, it looks for cover100.bmp)?
14:58:12linuxstbThat could simply be a global setting then.
14:58:22linuxstb(i.e. in the theme .cfg file)
14:58:30Paul_The_NerdThat too
14:58:44Massa1Paul_The_Nerd: that's exactly what I decide to do - but that means to read WPS information inside metadata code (which is outside the WPS parsing)
14:58:56Paul_The_NerdMassa1: Why metadata code?
14:58:57nudelit'd be cool if you could change from one theme to another without having to make sure you have copied the right size bmp files to the player
14:59:11Paul_The_NerdMassa1: Shouldn't the art size be read either from the .wps or the theme.cfg?
14:59:14Massa1linuxstb: then you have to change that setting every time you load another WPS which is made for a different album art size?
14:59:57linuxstbMassa1: Of course - that's the whole point of the theme .cfg file.
15:00
15:00:21Massa1Paul_The_Nerd: because the finding and loading of the bitmap is done when the file information will be loaded - that's the metadata loading...
15:01:03Massa1linuxstb: for me WPS themes are more dynamic than "normal" configuration settings...
15:01:25Paul_The_NerdMassa1: Theme files with .cfg extensions are *exactly* "normal" configuration files.
15:02:53Massa1Paul_The_Nerd: of course - I know, it would be a compromise if I'm unable to do it by reading the information from WPS ;)
15:03:16Massa1And I agree that the best solution would be to enable bitmap scaling...
15:03:59Paul_The_NerdIt does seem that if it's a WPS-exclusive setting, that it should be set in the .wps instead of the .cfg.
15:04:30Paul_The_NerdEvery now and then I still browse for a specific .wps instead of changing themes because, for example, I don't want anything else to be changed but the display on my main (or remote) screen.
15:05:16Massa1Paul_The_Nerd: that's exactly why I think it would be better to keep it in .wps than in .cfg
15:07:17Massa1BTW, this would also enable the possibility to have different sizes for main .wps and remote .rwps (although there's currently no color remote, so this is just theoretical :o )
15:08:38MikachuPaprica: hi
15:08:57Massa1linuxstb: are you still around?
15:09:05linuxstbYes
15:09:18MikachuPaprica: i made some more changes to xobox, i wrote comments on the @@ lines in the patch file
15:09:21MikachuPaprica: http://mikachu.ath.cx/patches/rockbox-xobox_updates.patch
15:09:38Massa1inbetween I had a look at lcd_set_backdrop, lcd_get_backdrop
15:10:29Massa1of course these functions don't know anything about screens. Do you know how the other functions are used?
15:10:35safetydanIs anyone actively working on the WPS tokenizer patch?
15:11:10linuxstbMassa1: You should probably add those functions to the GUI system, and change Rockbox to use those instead of the lcd functions directly.
15:11:12Massa1I mean, have they have all been set as function pointers inside the gui_wps structure or something similar?
15:12:06Massa1linuxstb: you think move them to the gui system? Or to write new gui_set_backdrop which then use the lcd_set_backdrop function?
15:12:23Massa1safetydan: as far as I know, nobody is currently working on it...
15:13:30linuxstbIf I'm understanding the intention of the GUI code correctly, we shouldn't be using the lcd_* functions directly any more - so yes, we should have a screen->set_backdrop() function.
15:17:11Massa1linuxstb: it seems it's more work than I expected ;)
15:17:34Massa1I'll have a look at it - thanks for that good discussion...

15:26:25Paul_The_NerdI was about to comment that someone's been watching too much Simpsons.
15:27:35BoD[]I'm a "old days" user of rockbox
15:27:54BoD[]back when I had an archos
15:28:11BoD[]jbr 20
15:28:29BoD[]then I lost my archos

15:29:01BoD[]then recently I bought an ipod :) and now tadaaa I'm back with rockbox again!
15:33:00BoD[]oh and I have a question
15:33:20BoD[]when moving the cursor in a list
15:33:38BoD[]when the cursor is on the last element and you go down again
15:33:48BoD[]it "warps" back to the first element
15:33:53BoD[]is there a way to disable this?
15:34:12Paul_The_NerdIt's an open source project. There's *always* a way. :-P
15:34:27Paul_The_NerdBut no, I don't think there's an option for it.
15:34:31BoD[]yeah :) but
15:34:32BoD[]ah
15:34:38BoD[]too bad
15:35:20BoD[]cause on the ipod, with the wheel thinggy, it's actually easier if it stops on the boudaries
15:35:47Paul_The_NerdI thought it paused at them...
15:35:55Paul_The_NerdOh, not ipod
15:35:56Paul_The_Nerd=/
15:36:04BoD[]hmm?
15:36:38Paul_The_NerdThe behaviour on other units is that scroll stops at the end of a list, and then if you start scrolling again in the same direction, *then* it wraps.
15:37:11BoD[]ohhh
15:37:15BoD[]that's clever
15:37:22Paul_The_NerdIt's very convenient.
15:37:29linuxstbI agree - I would prefer the wheel to never wrap around. But the existing code that does that is based on repeat events - which don't occur with the wheel.
15:37:50BoD[]hmmm
15:38:09BoD[]hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
15:38:10BoD[]:)
15:38:17Mikachuyou could eat maybe 10 events before you wrap?
15:38:45Paul_The_NerdProbably only need 3 or 4
15:38:48BoD[]i think it's a "time" thing
15:39:25BoD[]if there's a pause between 2 groups of events, then it's 2 separate "user gestures"

If you could reuse images at differnet offsets for differnet tags then you'd only need a single image, but I don't think you can do that.

18:03:56amiconnMikachu: Not much imho. But it would (1) make loading wps'es way faster and (2) significantly reduce disk space waste
18:05:10Mikachuyou mean from blocksize waste?
18:06:22amiconnFAT allocates space in whole clusters
18:06:42Mikachuhow large are those usually?
18:06:43amiconn..meaning even a few-byte .bmp takes 32KB on a 40GB FAT32 partition
18:07:02amiconnTake that times 50 for some wps'es...
18:07:24Mikachuon my nano it seems the cluster size is 4kB
18:08:22Mikachuyeah, du -hsc in wps/ gives 1.9M while −−apparent-size gives only 337kB
18:10:30amiconnImagine that on a 40GB iPod or iriver...
18:10:50Mikachuis it possible to use 4kB clustersize on 40GB partitions?
18:11:23amiconnTheoretically yes, but it would increase the FAT size significantly and hence slow down file operations
18:11:25Mikachumkdosfs has a -s sectors-per-cluster
18:11:44amiconnThere's a reason why the cluster size defaults are as they are

18:12:56Lynx_now i get the status bar, and a blank screen

19:36:37fantomasMikachu: before umount or after?

19:58:10MarcoPolowould this patch work on ipod or is it really iriver specific ?http://www.rockbox.org/bugs/task/3001
20:00
20:02:19safetydanMarcoPolo, it will probably help iPod's but at the moment it looks pretty specific to the battery types found in the iRiver's
20:02:27safetydanHelp iPod's in the end that is
20:04:37MarcoPolo that is ?

20:19:12*t0mas wonders why there is such a difference between ipod users and archos users...
20:19:55dpassen1where do iriver owners fit in
20:19:55Shadowarrior13The ipod is better.
20:20:04Shadowarrior13It owns all of you.
20:20:09t0masiriver users fit somewhere in between
20:20:11*Shadowarrior13 waves it around
20:20:32t0masas in: iriver has some stupid users... ipod has way more stupid users...
20:20:41t0masthe ipl people really have trouble with all questions they get
20:20:53linuxstbIt's simply that there are _way_ more ipod users in the world.

20:22:04youngcereali think how many users use windows and that is realy a shit produkt more users not a better produkt
20:22:05youngcereal;)
20:22:28t0masand more general public buying ipods?
20:22:34t0masjust because they're more... well known?
20:22:40Shadowarrior13I think on how many people rip on windows because they want to fit in. More people dissing it doesn't mean it's a bad product...

21:16:43safetydanhopefully it's easier to extend

21:47:28midkayens04, probably.
21:47:34linuxstbBut both Archos and iriver (makers of other mp3 players that Rockbox runs on) have refused to service players with Rockbox installed on them.
21:47:40sharpefrom what i've done anyway.
21:48:00Mikachubut for those players, you actually reflash some firmware chip right?
21:48:04ens04can rockbox make the ipod 5g play games?

21:52:38sharpezip format i mean
21:52:44sharpeum...
21:52:47sharpei couldn't tell you.
21:53:45safetydanGood thing you're researching it so you can write the code then :)
21:53:48sharpethe tar would take up more space than an uncompressed zip...
21:54:16linuxstbsafetydan: You don't even need random access if you're loading a WPS from a .tar file - you will always load all the files.
21:54:27Massa1linuxstb: still here ;) ?
21:54:27midkaysharpe, so.. tar takes more space, is harder to decompress, and less common.. hmm. the clear winner is tar.
21:54:37sharpelol
21:55:10safetydanlinuxstb, of course... should have though it through
21:55:13sharpetar isn't compressed midkay...
21:55:14safetydanthought even
21:55:34safetydansharpe, probably not a good idea to compress them
21:55:41midkaysharpe, ah..

21:56:47sharpeso... we use an existing format, or define a new one, and see how that goes...?

21:57:28midkayi'd say existing..
21:58:05safetydanexisting is best to start with so you can use existing tools
21:58:16sharpecould get a tiny bit more space out of a new one, to not deal with unneeded stuff...
21:58:43Massa1linuxstb: I just had some time to finish the first version (quick'n dirty) of moving the backdrop functionality inside the wps_data structure :)
21:58:51midkaysharpe, "could".. but better to go existing + compatible than new + unfamiliar, imo..
21:59:00sharpe:)
21:59:52Massa1seems to work O.K. - now I'll cleanup the code and make it the "better way" :)
22:00
22:00:30sharpei'm thinking... uncompressed zip format then?
22:01:06midkaysharpe, sounds good
22:01:32Massa1linuxstb? No longer available?
22:01:34midkaysharpe, maybe it'd be nice to scan for a .wps file inside any zip archive first (in the root of the folder) and prompt to load it or something. :)

22:02:13sharpeand...
22:02:52Massa1linuxstb: do you remember for what purpose the "old_backdrop" in gwps.c is? Why do you need to store and restore it?
22:03:50linuxstbThat's to restore the backdrop used in the rest of Rockbox when the WPS screen exits, or the WPS screen calls the main menu.
22:04:26sharpei've never used a backdrop in rockbox... i dunno why...
22:04:38Massa1isn't that called "background" and is stored in a different variable?
22:05:00linuxstbbackground could be the background color.
22:06:39Massa1So to move it completely to the gui_wps structure, I would have to store the backdrop of "all" screens?
22:07:22linuxstbI think so, yes.
22:08:33Massa1Does this make sense - waste memory for that just in the case that in some time in the future a remote could also have a backdrop?

23:49:49midkay_Adrian, it could be outdated
23:49:54RotAtoRAdrian: how old is your rockbox build?
23:50:09midkay_amiconn, haha - ouch!
23:50:12 Quit zoneout ("Leaving")
23:50:36RotAtoRthe rock files there are compiled for the latest plugin api version
23:50:40 Join Bagder [0] (n=daniel@1-1-5-26a.hud.sth.bostream.se)
23:51:03amiconnmidkay_: Yeah, no lcd code in the decompressor. The decompressor itself is ~1.1KB, that already includes the 512bytes vector table
23:51:15amiconnhi Bagder :)
23:51:31Bagderhey ho
23:51:41midkay_amiconn, haha - that sounds fun.. led blinking :)
23:51:54*amiconn has some complaints about buildzip.pl
23:52:07Adrianits a Ver.CVS-060312
23:52:23amiconnBagder: buildzip.pl includes boxes.wps & associated BMPs for player
23:52:33RotAtoRAdrian: hmm, it should work then, did you download the rock for the correct target
23:52:33RotAtoR?
23:52:45Adrianyes
23:52:51amiconn...and it includes empty 'eq' dirs (all hwcodec platforms) and a 'backdrop' dir for player
23:53:13Adrianbut what this message means??
23:53:14RotAtoRhmm, then the plugin api version must have been bumped in the last two days
23:53:30AdrianIncompatible version??
23:53:39midkay_what's the policy in rockbox main code? fast+cheap or more readable/understandable? :)
23:53:59RotAtoRAdrian: it means that the plugin is compiled for a different version of rockbox than what you are running
23:55:04Adrianbut i have the new version of rockbox
23:55:48Adrianmaybe try with the older version??
23:55:59 Quit ghode|afk (Connection timed out)
23:56:10RotAtoRsure, but there's no backwards compatibility
23:56:33RotAtoRhmm, it looks like the plugin api version was bumped yesterday
23:56:48RotAtoRso either use a build from before then or compile the plugin yourself
