00:00:07Daishiits just a txt file with a list of mp3 files
00:00:26*Bagder wants a commit
00:00:26Daishioo and the extended version does have song info

00:00:35JdGordonmorning guys
00:00:45Daishilinuxstb: thanks btw
00:01:02Zagorwebguest58: no, Daishi is right. just call the file .m3u and you're set

00:01:38Bagderuh, uppercase feature-request
00:01:41MoosBagder: commit the LCD test plugin then :-)
00:01:44Bagderand for a new port
00:01:48webguest58as easy as that, jeez I had done that bought thought that I had to somehow append .m3u to each file. Thanks Zagor
00:01:50linuxstbHas there been any thought about the default Rockbox theme for the 3.0 release?

00:02:28webguest63Bagder: good one
00:02:33webguest63so polite
00:02:44Bagder?
00:03:09 Part webguest58
00:03:30BagderMoos: I don't have that
00:03:30 Join webguest51 [0] (n=3fed53eb@labb.contactor.se)
00:03:31webguest63The feature request.
00:03:37Bagderaha
00:03:38linuxstbBagder: And very specific too. How many mp3 players do Sony make?
00:03:59MoosBagder: just kinding :)
00:04:13webguest51Hello. Is this where i ask how to install rockbox on my 3g ipod? All that's in the zip is this .ipod file, and i don't know what to do with it.
00:04:16Zagordo you think he'll be satisfied if we simply add it to the list?
00:04:56BagderI think he means he has the port completed
00:05:00Bagder:-P
00:05:04Zagorwebguest51: be aware the 3g port is not fully functional yet.
00:05:39webguest51how nonfunctional is it? My ipod's firmware is seriously screwed up... if it works at all, it's a step up
00:05:46*preglow raises his favourite pet peeve in the wiki
00:06:37Zagorwebguest51: as far as I remember, most things work *except* the actual audio output.
00:07:00webguest51oh. hmm. audio output is an important feature, to me.
00:07:07webguest51thanks for your help ^_^
00:07:09Zagorhehe, really?
00:07:19Bagdernah audio is overrated in music players ;-)
00:07:35webguest63Audio is implemented, but untested, afaik
00:07:45webguest63So it *might* not work, noone really knows
00:07:50 Quit Xerion (" ")
00:07:53Galoisjust watch the spectrograph and _feel_ the music
00:08:00Bagderhaha
00:08:20*linuxstb points out that it's possible that audio works on the 3g - no-one's tested it.
00:08:23cs_weaselor play tetrox
00:08:28webguest51oh, wait... just found the ipodinstall page, and learned that it's for win-formatted ipods only
00:08:36webguest51i don't even think my mac can format fat32
00:08:50webguest51i guess i'll come back in another few versions
00:08:59Zagorhttp://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IpodInstallationFromMacOSX
00:09:11webguest63Still requires the ipod to be fat32
00:09:19Zagorheh, right. ignore me :-)
00:09:22webguest63Which is unlikely to change anytime soon
00:09:27Zagorindeed
00:09:34linuxstbwebguest51: It will be a long wait for HFS support - unless someone new comes along with a desire to spend a few months coding and debugging it.
00:10:22Zagorhowever the page includes a description how to convert an ipod from hfs to fat32
00:10:51webguest63Good point
00:11:09linuxstbYes, but those instructions rely on donated partition tables - there isn't one for a 3G.
00:11:45Zagordarn, are you guys going to force me to _read_ the pages I recommend?
00:12:06tucozpreglow, is palatino ugly?
00:12:24*Bagder does the magic langv2 moves in silence
00:12:30preglowtucoz: it's too huge for us, i think
00:12:30webguest51there's no 3g-specific bootloader −− should i just try the 4g?
00:12:40preglowtucoz: either than that, it's a good looking font
00:12:40tucozok
00:12:51linuxstbwebguest51: No. I'll make you one.
00:12:53tucozBut, we can define point size.
00:12:53preglowmost stuff by herman zapf is good stuff, but not everything can be used for manuals
00:13:17webguest51oh, thank you linuxstb.
00:13:18linuxstbwebguest51: Are you going to reformat as FAT32 and try to install Rockbox?
00:13:24webguest51indeed
00:13:28preglowtucoz: well, worth a shot of course
00:13:36preglowtucoz: but i say we shouldn't care too much about that yet
00:13:42preglowtucoz: times is a completely ok generic choice
00:13:59tucozso, preglow. You even know the names of Font creators :-)
00:14:04preglowhaha
00:14:09preglowlike i said, i like typography
00:14:14linuxstbwebguest51: Be aware that the only 3g developer hasn't been around for a while, and the 3g port is nowhere near as complete as the port for the newer ipods. But we need testers...
00:14:24preglowand hermann zapf is a rather famous one
00:14:44tucozYes, that is the beauty of LaTeX. Change one line, and a totally new look.
00:15:03tucozI'll read about him in wikipedia then.
00:15:12Cassandrapreglow, isn't he a total dingbat though?
00:15:35linuxstbwebguest51: http://www.davechapman.f2s.com/rockbox/bootloader-3g.bin
00:15:37CassandraNo no, not Times. It is the suck.
00:15:51preglowCassandra: hahaha, i can appreciate font humour
00:16:06*Cassandra is such a nerd sometimes.
00:16:11preglowtimes doesn't look very nice, no
00:16:37*Cassandra likes Avantguarde, Univers and New Century Schoolbook.
00:16:50preglowthe last is in latex, i think
00:16:50*JdGordon wants webdings!
00:16:55*Zagor likes 6x13
00:17:00preglow8x16!
00:17:11tucozChicago 12 !!!
00:17:16tucoz...or maybe not
00:17:17preglownothing bloody beats 8x16 at 80x25
00:17:30*preglow is a fan of ansi art :]
00:17:39CassandraDamn, I wish I'd get around to designing the 5x3 font I want to do in my copious free time.
00:17:40tucozah, the good old days
00:17:41 Quit nnod (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
00:17:48preglowi've even coded an sdl ansi viewer
00:17:50Zagortoo wide! you can't fit 3 emacs windows side by side with that.
00:17:51preglowperhaps i should port it to rockbox
00:17:59CassandraThe problem is that it's such a silly project it's very low priority.
00:18:13webguest51Wonderful (downloaded). Does the mac install page assume that i've first formatted it to FAT?
00:18:24CassandraOf the Rockbox fonts, I like jackash the best.
00:18:30CassandraBut then I would - I designed it.
00:18:32preglowi like the default best, heh
00:18:43preglowbut i'm SO going to port 8x16
00:18:44Cassandraschumaker clean is nice, yeah.
00:18:48tucozI like the default, only slightly larger
00:19:00tucozwhich is the one I use
00:19:08linuxstbwebguest51: Yes. It also has instructions for converting - but unfortunately they won't help you. (you will see why when you read them). I think your only option is to use a Windows PC.
00:20:09CassandraDoes anyone remember where I can get the Rockbox VMware Debian image from yet?
00:20:22webguest63It's linked in the wikipage
00:20:34webguest63VMwareDevelopmentPlatform or somesuch
00:20:48webguest63http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/VMwareDevelopmentPlatform
00:21:09CassandraThanks.
00:21:16CassandraI'll stick that on the docs index.

00:23:22Cassandratucoz: I'd still prefer New Century Schoolbook.
00:23:26CassandraThe 2.4 manual was in that.
00:23:35tucozeeewww
00:24:00tucozWe could offer manuals with different fonts as well
00:24:09CassandraNever understood why people have such objections to clean highly reabable fonts.
00:24:12CassandraLet's not.
00:24:20tucozI joked
00:24:27preglowurgh
00:24:30webguest51linuxstb: does it need to be formatted as an ipod, or will a blank fat32 format work?
00:24:32Cassandra:)
00:24:32preglowthe 2.4 manual sans font?
00:24:40Daishihrm ipod_fw -g nano -o rockboot.bin -i apple_os.bin bootloader-nano.bin didnt make apples firmware the default
00:24:42preglowi couldn't stand that font
00:25:03CassandraWell, the 2.5 font should be available.
00:25:10linuxstbwebguest51: It needs to be formatted as an ipod. Otherwise the Apple bootloader (stored in flash) will refuse to load the Rockbox bootloader.
00:25:13CassandraSince I nicked it from a TeX distribution.
00:25:13preglowahh, i think i was talking about 2.5
00:25:18preglowthe rounded sans thing
00:26:07CassandraSo sue me - I find rounded sans fonts to be the most readable.
00:26:41preglowhttp://www.pvv.org/~thomj/ansi/png/NEWS-56.png <- what we should aim for
00:26:49preglowthat'd be the best manual ever
00:27:09Zagor:-)
00:27:49tucozpreglow, see if you like the manual better now
00:28:29tucozthe font, that is
00:29:14*Cassandra hates serif fonts with a passion.
00:29:25 Quit cky1billion (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
00:29:40preglowCassandra: how is possible to hate serif fonts? they're the best
00:29:50preglowtucoz: you know, it actually works well as opposed to what i said
00:30:18 Join cky1billion [0] (n=cky@cpe-24-58-30-8.twcny.res.rr.com)
00:30:38tucozI think so too. Well, we know that it's easy to change it if we would want that anyway.
00:30:50preglowsure
00:31:03preglowswitching fonts in latex is a breeze, the only stupid thing is all the new overfull hboxes you might get
00:31:43preglowbut anyway, i'd like some opinions on what i just put forth in ManualHowto
00:32:06preglowi don't like the thought of us having to edit the manual everytime some bloody company finds out they want to letter their name in some new fancy way

00:32:30tucozhehe
00:32:39Bagderwe should pick a spelling and stick with it
00:32:42preglowespecially when it defies all typographic and linguistic rules to start with
00:32:52preglowBagder: i think that spelling should be the one actually rooted in english grammar
00:33:02preglowand not some fancy graphic designers wet dream
00:33:13tucozI agree with preglow. Iriver, Ipod, Archos, Iaudio
00:33:22Bagderit makes sense to me too
00:33:32preglowof course it makes sense :P
00:33:54tucoziRiver, iPod, iAudio, Archos
00:34:06webguest63aRchos o.O
00:34:19linuxstbROCKbox
00:34:23Bagderhahaha
00:34:34tucozIt looks ok for a brand, but in the text it just not good.
00:34:40webguest63Some people insist on writing RockBox
00:35:25tucozAnd some insist on writing rbs
00:35:28nudelI-Pod would be the proper english, I think. (like it's meant to be e-mail but everyone writes email)
00:35:28tucozrbx
00:35:52Bagderno, I vote for eye-pewd
00:36:19bluebrother^how about "I, pod" ;-)
00:36:50Daishiso how do i make the apple firmware default? there doesnt seem to be anything in the docs
00:36:57webguest51Aye, Pod!
00:37:12webguest51or I Pawed
00:37:42preglowtucoz: but ok, this should be agreed upon and put down somewhere
00:37:46DaishiiPod is a proper noun nudel
00:37:54Daishiits supposed to be like that
00:38:01preglowno
00:38:03preglowit's a proper trademark
00:38:05preglownot a noun
00:38:14linuxstbDaishi: You can't make the Apple firmware the default with the Rockbox bootloader.
00:38:16Daishioops
00:38:26preglowyou should distinguish between trademarks and words
00:38:26Daishilinuxstb: why not?
00:38:38preglowthe trademark is iPod, the word should be Ipod
00:38:43bluebrother^but whats against writing brand names the way their respective company does?
00:39:09Bagderbecause it looks weird
00:39:13preglowbluebrother^: 1) we'd have to change our entire manual everytime a company changes its mind, just like iriver did (iRiver vs iriver), 2) it doesn't follow standard english rules
00:39:17Bagderbecause we get trouble when they change
00:39:32CassandraRight. The Rockbox development VM is now on Gnutella 2 and eDonkey.
00:39:43bluebrother^hmm, this could be solved using a macro ...
00:39:50preglowCassandra: bittorrent? :>
00:39:53CassandraCould people please grab it so my net connection doesn't get totally hammered.
00:39:58Cassandrapreglow: Coming ....
00:40:04preglowgreat, i'd prefer that
00:40:31preglowbluebrother^: yeah, but the second point is still valid
00:40:32tucozpreglow, It's a simple change. Just change what's in the platform files
00:40:41Zagorhttp://download.rockbox.org/vmware/ <−−- much better bandwidth than www.rockbox.org
00:40:49bluebrother^I't also suggest writing brand names in, say, caps
00:41:01preglowwhy would you want to do that?
00:41:02nudelOr just ignore it when they change their stupid name. :) Nvidia insist on being all caps (NVIDIA) which I refuse to write. Except just now. heh
00:41:16preglownudel: which is how the good lord intended it to be
00:41:23tucozand I vote for the Iriver version.
00:41:43bluebrother^I don't mean writing everything in capital letters but the thing called "Kapitälchen" in german.
00:41:49preglowsmall caps?
00:41:53preglowi still don't see the need
00:42:02nudelmake it configurable :)
00:42:04preglowit's an ordinary name
00:42:10preglowone capital, the rest small
00:42:12bluebrother^small caps as I looked it up right now.
00:42:18preglowbesides
00:42:25preglownot all latex fonts have proper small caps
00:42:38preglowscaled small caps look like a bag of shit
00:43:35Bagderschleep
00:43:35Daishipreglow: arent there more pressing issues in the world?
00:43:53preglowDaishi: so i shouldn't care about it because there's hunger and war?
00:43:59bluebrother^I would use small caps for names to mark them as names. Similar to the (r) or (tm) stuff.
00:44:10preglowi want this manual to be as good as can be
00:44:12obonudel: any chance of a hdd icon on your green theme?
00:44:24preglownudel: which reminds me, any nano version yet? :>
00:44:30Daishiim talking about iPod titling specifics
00:44:47nudeli'll add a hdd icon, sure
00:44:51preglowDaishi: i know, and we need a policy, people are asking if they should write iriver or iRiver
00:44:55nudelwill probably do a nano version this weekend
00:44:57preglowDaishi: i don't want a bit of both spread everywhere
00:45:00nudelbeen too tired to do anything after work
00:45:02Daishiid say the majority of people see iPod like that and recognize it like that, it would give the docs a nicer feel if it was left as iPod
00:45:05obothanks :)
00:45:12tucozgood night folks
00:45:18preglowDaishi: and i say fuck that, if they can read, they can recognize Ipod
00:45:23preglowtucoz: night
00:45:27tucozpreglow, I agreed with you on the wiki ;)
00:45:29nudelIpod looks completely ridiculous IMO.

00:46:11bluebrother^but why should we use something the users aren't used to?
00:46:19preglowbluebrother^: so we don't have to care about it ever again
00:46:35 Quit Zagor ("Client exiting")
00:46:43preglowbluebrother^: if apple starts to write it ipod or IPod or iPOD, wedon't have to care, we followed the good old english rules of standard lettering
00:46:43nudelbecaus eit isn't a normal word... it's got a letter prefix that isn't pronounced the way a letter normally is. it's pronounced i-pod, not ipod.
00:46:51bluebrother^sure? I guess there will come answers like "why is iPod spelled wrongly?"
00:46:53Daishiheh do an sed s/Ipod/iPod/g and have 2 versions of the manual
00:47:07preglowbluebrother^: and i'll have a ready written page to direct them to
00:47:25Daishii think apple is going to keep it as iPod
00:47:29linuxstbnudel: "Ipod" is pronounced the same as irate for example.

00:48:30bluebrother^from my viewpoint "iPod" is a name. And names don't comply to any language rules.
00:48:34preglowthey do
00:48:39preglowthey're written with a capital
00:48:41nudelit's not a word, it's a name, it can be whatever the name inventor says it is. Like Ronald McDonald isn't Ronald Mcdonald.
00:48:42preglowand then small letters
00:48:43preglowthat's a rule
00:49:02bluebrother^I wouldn't say so.
00:49:07preglowyou'd be wrong :)
00:49:10bluebrother^take "Windows XP"
00:49:10crashdMcDonald is a name tho
00:49:18linuxstbMc is a prefix - "son of Donald"
00:49:22bluebrother^there are capitals within the name.
00:49:22nudeliPod is also a name
00:49:28crashdO.o
00:49:31Daishii is apples prefix for stuff btw
00:49:42webguest63Exactly
00:49:46webguest63it's _Apple's_
00:49:48preglow"apple's" being the point, yes, there's no historical basis for it
00:49:49Daishia prefix lots of people are used to
00:49:52webguest63not proper Englis
00:49:53pillwtf
00:49:53preglowit's just something that pulled out of their asses
00:50:00Cassandrapreglow: What's a good tracker site for legitimately shareable files?
00:50:05nudelIf you're going to write Ipod I hope you also write Mp3 and Aac and Flac
00:50:06Daishiwell language changes in time
00:50:09preglowCassandra: i wouldn't know...
00:50:17pilliPod is a trademark
00:50:19webguest63nudel: Those are acronyms
00:50:20preglownudel: they're abbreviations
00:50:24crashdCassandra: well, i dont know about that, but thepiratebay has a good distributed tracker, and you can share legal stuff on there
00:50:25preglowwhat webguest63 said
00:50:27crashdas in, people do
00:50:29preglowacryonyms
00:50:29pillso it's spelled iPod
00:50:30nudeland the i in ipod doesn't stand for soemthing?
00:50:31crashdeven if it's generally not for legal stuff
00:50:33Daishilots of people seem to be fine with iPod and its capitalization
00:50:36pilland that's it
00:50:44bluebrother^why change names and don't change abbreviations?
00:50:50preglowDaishi: a lot of people can't write proper english either
00:51:01Cassandracrashd - I'd considered it, but I don't think a link to "The Pirate Bay" is something we want on the Rockbox site.
00:51:03preglowand they don't have to write manuals
00:51:06pilli'm sorry, what is the iPod spelling discussion about?
00:51:08crashdCassandra: yeah ;\
00:51:09webguest63bluebrother^: Because English dictates that acronyms are in all-caps

00:51:56nudelThe BBC have a really annoying habbit of lowercasing acronyms now, like "Aids" and "Pc" (for Police Constable, but still PC for Personal COmputer, which is even more annoying due to being inconsistent)

00:57:08preglowCassandra: who decided that's what the word looked like?
00:57:08crashdproof right there
00:57:16preglowCassandra: i'd look at the logo and see the letters, then write it 'ipod'
00:57:22preglowCassandra: i mean Ipod, it's a name after all

01:00:03preglowpill: i don't care where words come from, once they've reacher a certain level of universal usage, they're proper words
01:00:08CassandraIt's also a generic term for a vacuum cleaner.
01:00:14CassandraWhat about 'fridge'?
01:00:15pillbtw i'm french so i have other examples that may not mean anything to you but still
01:00:35preglowlinuxstb: now that's just sad to see...
01:00:42CassandraFridge is a generic term for what Americans call an icebox.
01:00:50pilli dont want ipod to be generic
01:00:53pillnever ever
01:00:59pillsince it is not generic
01:01:00GaloisI don't think googlefight means anything since google is not case sensitive unless your word contains uppercase characters

01:06:20webguest63Cassandra: that's a corner case.. they still pllay
01:06:25CassandraMaybe they should be 'pads' (as in "personal audio device")
01:06:27pillthen then create the acronym DAPR
01:06:41nudelI don't like DAP... Nobody outside of people who talk about them on the itnernet have a clue what a DAP is, and it seems like an unnecessary TLA.

01:07:03nudelit worked for prince

01:11:26preglowCassandra: most of those prefixes denote a family relationship

01:12:31preglowand one of them still is, hyes
01:12:52preglowCassandra: hell, the 'sen' in my name means 'son of', and i don't capitalise it even :)
01:13:14preglowno one does, but that's beside the point!
01:14:40Galoisit's reasonable that if you're writing the manual then you can do what you want in your own writing, but I would not recommend scrubbing the entire wiki to "conform" to one rendering or another
01:14:46linuxstbWhy don't we just ban the words IPOD, IRIVER and IAUDIO from the manual? A nice challenge for the manual authors.
01:15:39webguest63Galois: NO! The manual _must_ be internally consistent.
01:15:46Galoiswhy?
01:15:50Galoispeople aren't stupid you know
01:16:01Galoisand I've never heard of search software so bad that it can't handle case
01:16:03webguest63Because everything else would be highly stupid.

01:17:03preglowi'm trying to make a good point, that's all
01:17:04Galoisit's far worse to deliberately be inconsistent with everyone else
01:17:10Galoisit makes our own consistency efforts farcical
01:17:24Cassandrapreglow: with language, it pretty much is what everyone else says that's right.
01:17:29Paul_The_NerdI don't see any reason that deliberately being inconsistent because you feel something else is wrong, is bad.
01:17:40nudelwhen you install the manual it should ask you for your prefered spellings :)
01:17:45preglowCassandra: yeah, but i don't think people have thought this over too much
01:17:45Galoispaul_the_nerd: it's bad, when the justification being cited is internal consistency
01:17:50webguest63Cassandra: I think English is much "worse" than many other languages, in that respect
01:17:59preglowCassandra: and i'm not the only one with this opinion, if that's what you mean
01:18:03preglowi didn't even think of it myself
01:18:10Paul_The_NerdGalois: We Americans outnumber the British folk. Should they change what English is to fit our rules?
01:18:16Cassandrapreglow, No, I don't. I agree with you.
01:18:22Paul_The_NerdInternal consistency is not tantamount to external consistency.
01:18:34CassandraBut I don't think what it should be and what it is are the same thing at all.

01:19:07GaloisPaul_The_Nerd: likewise, I don't think rockbox should be enforcing american or british english in their wiki
01:19:09CassandraTherefore "ipod" is an acceptable term.
01:19:33Aditya"ipod" is never an exceptable term
01:19:35preglowGalois: do you see the final consequence of what you're saying?
01:19:40preglowGalois: everybody writing like they feel like?
01:19:42nudelHow about ipoD
01:19:45CassandraGalois, the manual at least used to be in British English.
01:19:47Adityano
01:19:47nudelthat'll piss off everyone
01:19:55nudelwhich seems fair
01:20:19Adityathere are to be no strings that containing the characters "i", "p", "o" and "d" in a consecutive order
01:20:26webguest63Galois: How about every manual contributer use whatever font they personally like?
01:20:38Adityaand colors! dont forget colors!
01:20:41CassandraPersonally I'd like it to stay that way on the grounds that it's our bloody language and Johnny come lately foriegners shouldn't be telling us how to speak it.
01:20:43Paul_The_NerdI'm actually in favour of iPod, but stored as a bitmap image so that it can be said that it's not a spelling, but rather a logo-image.
01:20:48CassandraI may be biased in this respect.

01:30:25webguest63Talking about spaces that look like space but isn't, Unicode has something in the order of 10 diffent types of spaces, it's a riot
01:30:29webguest63If not more
01:30:32preglowhaha
01:30:34nudelthe Archos firmware will have to be cut-down to the extent where it can't play music because allt he space is used up with code for rendering the firmware name
01:30:39preglowunicode is pretty comprehensible
01:30:41webguest63Whitespace characters, rather.
01:30:45Galoiswebguest63 that can be useful sometimes.
01:30:45preglowwebguest63: in typography you've got a bunch of spaces

01:30:56preglowwebguest63: like en space, em space, hair space, space
01:31:06preglowwebguest63: they're probably including those
01:31:31nudelI was so annoyed when i found out unicode has multi-character characters. :( Can't they just leave programmers alone with that complex crap that's so uncommon you'd have to be insane to bother wasting time coding for it?
01:31:43preglownudel: ????????
01:31:53preglownudel: you think foreign character sets is uncommon?
01:31:58nudellike some characters are control characters which modify the next character
01:32:01Galoisthose of us who speak non-english need it
01:32:07preglowthere are about 5 million people here that might disagree
01:32:07nudeli don't mean that
01:32:11preglowand this is a small country
01:32:26nudeljust that there are 32-bit characters, rather than all of them being 16-bit, so string handlign is a huge pain in the arse
01:32:37preglownudel: ahh, that depends on what you use
01:32:50nudelyou can jump to the 6th byte and know it's the 3rd character :(
01:32:53preglownudel: doing internal representation in utf32 is wise, that way all characters are always 32 bits
01:32:58Galoisit's far, far worse without unicode
01:33:06preglownudel: then you can convert to a variable size representation when you write to a file, for example
01:33:16nudeli figure unicode should be utf32 all the time
01:33:29preglownudel: that'd waste tons of space
01:33:42Paul_The_NerdOkay, this is perhaps the *weirdest* installer I've seen for software.
01:33:42nudeleasier to code though :)
01:33:44Galoisthe killer with utf32 is that it's not ASCII compatible
01:33:47preglownudel: but yeah, just keep using utf32 internally, that'll save you tons of grief
01:33:51Paul_The_NerdWhen I run setup.exe it points me to a .html file on the CD
01:33:52*Cassandra thinks that bloody Moetoerhead started this whole downward spiral.
01:33:54nudelutf8/utf16 mean you're working with compressed data effectively
01:33:55preglowPaul_The_Nerd: bonzi buddy installer?
01:34:03webguest63preglow: U-2000 - U-200B are all spaces of various kinds
01:34:04BHSPitLappy2lol
01:34:07CassandraAnd they were a bad influence on Bjork.
01:34:09Paul_The_NerdWhich then leads through a series of web pages, after which it finally points me to a link to a .exe on the CD.
01:34:17markunpreglow: phaedrus961 and I were thinking about 16-bit arrays for unicode in some places
01:34:30preglowmarkun: any places in particular?

01:35:31preglowmtf8: congratulations! hope you like it
01:35:37markunpreglow: not really, it's more that we now need to allocate 3x the max size and with 16-bit only 2x
01:35:38mtf8I'm sure it's gonna be great
01:35:44mtf8I don't see my music though
01:35:49preglowmarkun: but you can't represent everything in ucs16...
01:35:57preglowmtf8: what player?

01:36:07preglowmtf8: ahhh, right
01:36:15mtf8didn't touch any of it during the install
01:36:17preglowmtf8: itunes uses a weird database format rockbox can't read yet
01:36:26mtf8no biggie if I've gotta upload it all again
01:36:34mtf8no problemo
01:36:37preglowmtf8: rockbox just basically reads ordinary files
01:36:38mtf8can I still use gtkpod?
01:36:45preglowmtf8: just drag and drop your music over
01:36:45Paul_The_NerdYou don't need gtkpod
01:36:48crashdmtf8: you dont need too
01:36:52mtf8oh
01:36:52Paul_The_NerdIn rockbox it's browsed by file tree.
01:36:53Galoisyou can use mount
01:36:56mtf8nice
01:37:00mtf8so just cp :)
01:37:05mtf8where should I put them?
01:37:07preglowmtf8: rockbox will probably support itunes database in the future, but as of right now, the ipod port is pretty new
01:37:09Paul_The_NerdWherever you want

01:37:37mtf8dd :)
01:37:38mtf8no
01:37:46*mtf8 realizes what a bad joke that was
01:38:05linuxstbAFAIK, HFS Plus uses utf-16
01:38:30preglowmarkun: the solution with only allocating 3*MAX_PATH is pretty fat32 specific anyway
01:38:41preglowmarkun: so the full blown logical way would of course be going utf32
01:39:00preglowlinuxstb: utf16 and ucs16 are two different things
01:39:41preglowi mean ucs-2, btw
01:39:49preglowthere's no such thing as usc16, i recall

02:27:16preglowonly usb <-
02:27:19preglowat least i think so

02:27:38Paul_The_NerdUSB
02:27:56Paul_The_Nerdwebguest51: Rockbox doesn't actually *use* the USB port at the moment anyway. It can charge from it, but that's it.

02:34:06austriancoderlinuxstb: lets see if i get some sound out of it
02:34:59webguest51so. if any of you are wondering. my ipod was all fucked up (firmware something, i assume −− blinking folder when it tried to boot, random other issues, and even when "restored," would only go to disk mode). Now i have tried for 4 hours to rockbox it, and it seems that the previous deaths precluded this possibility. So don't tell people they can bring back the dead.
02:35:35webguest51Not that anyone told me that it was possible. But i had hope. Which has now been slain. Oh so slain.
02:35:53Paul_The_Nerdwebguest51: Is it just your disk that's bad?
02:37:01webguest51couldn't tell you, paul. I think that the pitiful battery might have something to do with it... the inability to remember its own settings, etc

02:37:57KensirI'd hate to beg, but I really can't compile Rockbox for the 5G...and im looking for is doom, tetris, bejeweled, and album art
02:38:08CassandraWell if you used the Apple firmware restore utility, it's highly unlikely to be Rockbox that's the problem.
02:38:10Kensirhas anyone here pulled it off?
02:38:36CassandraKensir, I believe Tetris and Jewels are in the standard build.
02:38:55CassandraErm ... Rocktris, or whatever.
02:39:07webguest51oh, i'm not claiming that it is. I just thought that i could turn a nonfuntioning ipod into a functioning one, because all the issues seemed to be firmware problems. I was wrong.
02:39:14Kensirok
02:39:23Cassandrawebguest51, sorry to hear that.
02:39:26Kensirthanks Cassandra
02:39:39Kensiri guess ill do some more forum digging for the Doom thing...
02:39:57Paul_The_Nerdwebguest51: Well, the firmware's stored on a special partition of the disk. If that partition is damaged, trying to write the Rockbox loader to it still won't work probably
02:40:01CassandraI don't think there's anyone providing custom iPod builds at the moment.
02:40:10Paul_The_NerdKensir: Doom is kinda futzy at the moment, I believe.
02:40:36Paul_The_NerdCassandra: I get requests for them pretty much daily. =/
02:40:59webguest51If the firmware partition was damaged, and even apple's restorer left the damn thing in disk mode, is there anything left that you'd suggest trying?

03:12:46Paul_The_Nerdwarthawg: Depends on what you want
03:13:17Paul_The_Nerdwarthawg: iPodLoader2 is best if you plan to be using linux a lot, or easily pick between them. Ours if you intend to use your iPod primarily as a music player.
03:13:18warthawgPaul_The_Nerd, the ideal would be to have both Rockbox and Ipodlinux

04:07:41saratogai've already got a linux box, just i'm too lazy to setup everything again on it :)
04:07:42lostlogicsaratoga: probably a 3x reduction in compile time
04:07:50lostlogicvmware vs. cygwin
04:07:52saratogaso far thats not a big issue for me

04:08:29saratogai did actually have real questions to ask the devs :)
04:08:43lostlogicshould ask it
04:09:00saratogais there some documentation handy about how ATTR declarations actually work in gcc?
04:09:09saratogai looked at the #defines for them and i have no idea what they do
04:09:21saratogawell, aside from control IRAM use
04:09:23saratogasomehow
04:10:03lostlogicwell the ATTR defines are just shortcuts for __attribute__(()) stuff that controls GCC's compilation and linking behavior
04:10:20saratogayeah i saw that
04:10:33saratogaso they just control the linker?
04:10:51saratoga(my compiler knowledge is almost zero)
04:10:57lostlogicessentially, google for gcc attribute
04:11:01lostlogicand you'll find resources describing them
04:11:12lostlogicwe use them to control what region of ram functions are stored in
04:11:26lostlogicand for profiling I use them to prevent certain functions from being profiled
04:11:30 Quit tvelocity ("Ex-Chat")
04:11:47saratogawe have profiling on rockbox?
04:11:52saratogahow does that work
04:12:12lostlogicit'd documented in the source tree somewhere TECH file or something
04:12:34lostlogicnot the most advanced profiling system, but it's the best I could do ;)
04:13:20saratogait records runtime info to a file or something?
04:13:47lostlogicyah, whatever set of functions (on one thread) that you want profiled it will record number of calls and time in function
04:14:02saratogawow cool
04:14:15saratogaso how much IRAM are we allowed to use in a codec ?
04:14:29lostlogic48kb
04:16:25saratogaso postfixing a declaration with "ICONST_ATTR" will allocate to the IRAM?
04:16:26 Join sharpe [0] (i=ziggy@user-0c8hc11.cable.mindspring.com)
04:16:46saratogaor is that only allocate a constant to the iram
04:16:55lostlogicwell iconst is for constant data only bss is for buffers, data is for data, code is for code
04:17:33saratogawhats the difference between data and a buffer?
04:18:07lostlogicsorry, I'm not exactly clear on that myself
04:18:24saratogahmm
04:18:30saratogathe code tag is used on whole blocks?
04:18:42lostlogicit's used per function
04:18:51lostlogicit must be part of a function declaration
04:18:56saratogaah
04:20:31saratogalooking at libmad, it only uses ~3.6KB of IRAM, this is because no one ever bothered to optimize it?
04:20:38saratogai assumed we just didn't have much to spare
04:20:42lostlogicwhat makes you say that?
04:20:52lostlogicI'm pretty sure all of our codecs already use more than that
04:21:21saratogai grepped ATTR recursively on the libmad folder
04:21:33saratogaand the sum of all the declarations is just 3.6KB
04:21:46saratogaassuming all words are 4 bytes, which I think is correct on ARM
04:22:02lostlogic*checks*
04:22:13saratogayeah, i'm a little puzzeled
04:22:45linuxstbThere could also be IRAM declared in apps/codecs/mpa.c
04:23:50saratogatheres more to the decoder then libmad?
04:24:03saratogaoh i see
04:24:07lostlogicit uses c000 through 13fcc
04:24:15linuxstblibmad is the decoder library. mpa.c can be thought of as the interface between Rockbox and libmad.
04:24:19lostlogicaccording tot he map file
04:25:11linuxstbJust under 32KB then...
04:25:14saratogayeah
04:25:18saratogaheh beat me to calc.exe

04:25:52saratogac000 is DRAM or IRAM?
04:27:14lostlogic4000c000 is the start of IRAM in ipod IIRC

04:29:09saratogaso you're saying its allocated 32kb of the IRAM then?
04:29:18lostlogicsaratoga: yes
04:29:21linuxstbBut IRAM doesn't seem to be making much of a difference on the iPod though.
04:29:35lostlogiclinuxstb: yeah, the dram controller is much faster than iriver
04:30:46saratogareally?
04:30:52saratogai thought the cache sucked on the pp chips
04:31:09saratogaand mem latency was fairly high
04:31:27lostlogiclinuxstb: does the pp have a code cache similar to the cf?
04:34:59saratogalooking at the rockbox.map file I compiled for my ipod 3G, i see only 48KB of IRAM
04:35:09saratogaIRAM 0x40000000 0x0000c000
04:35:23saratogathe rest is reserved for the stack and system?
04:35:31saratogaor does that include everything
04:36:07linuxstblostlogic: All I know about the cache is that it is a unified code/data cache.
04:36:13linuxstb(and there is one per CPU).
04:36:43linuxstbsaratoga: That area of IRAM is for the stack and system. The 48KB reserved for codecs starts at 0x4000c000.
04:36:50saratogaoh
04:37:33linuxstbThe PP5002 (used in the 1G to 3G) apparently has a "broken" cache. Meaning that IRAM will be much more significant on those ipods.
04:37:46linuxstbBut the PP502x used in the newer ipods is apparently fine.
04:38:21linuxstbBTW, have you tried Rockbox on your 3g ipod?

05:00:53Paul_The_NerdAlso, wasn't AAC+ after the license change?
05:00:58saratogaof course
05:01:03saratogai didn't think of that
05:01:10saratogalicense change?
05:01:14saratogaisn't it gpl?
05:01:18linuxstbNot any more.
05:01:25saratogawhat did they change to?
05:01:33linuxstbThey added their own advertising clause to it.

05:02:17linuxstbThey still call it the GPL, but most other people (including us) disagree.
05:03:02linuxstbBut there is talk in the ffmpeg project of them implementing their own AAC decoder. Which we will be more than happy to use instead of faad.
05:03:40saratogathats bizzare

05:46:04Paul_The_NerdIt *might* work on iAudio, nobody's tested it yet
05:47:16interestediaudioI've tested it, and it's told me that it's the "wrong device." Is this just a setting in the code, or does this mean that it's truly incompatable?
05:48:15Paul_The_NerdYou compiled the plugin yourself for iAudio, or you just copied the .rock from somewhere?
05:52:41interestediaudioAha. Okay. Now I feel stupid. Off to go get source.
05:53:21Paul_The_NerdYeah, it's important that you compile it specifically for your target. It may need some #defines for the keys and stuff.

07:15:43amiconnYeah nice. Should even get faster when all the clients had a chance to build up the ccache
07:16:03B4gderyeps
07:16:06amiconnE.g. mine got one different sim build each time after t0mas enabled simulators for m

07:16:12B4gderI cut out the zip transfers ydaya
07:16:19B4gderyday
07:16:53amiconnWe're now having some 64bit sims among the sim builds....
07:17:15amiconnActually only one in the last 3 rounds so far
07:17:28B4gdernice
07:18:07amiconnThey aren't specially marked, other than the logs say which client built the sim
07:18:15 Quit TiMiD (Remote closed the connection)
07:19:07amiconnWe have variations in the sim builds anyway, since not every build machine has the same host gcc.
07:19:29amiconnThe 32bit vs. 64bit is probably the biggest variation though
07:19:32B4gderI think we vary on the cross-compiled gccs too
07:19:41amiconnPossibly
07:19:57amiconnI use the latest of each series
07:20:09amiconn3.3.6 for SH, 4.0.3 for arm
07:20:35B4gder"Using sh-elf-gcc 3.4.5 (304) "
07:20:42amiconnhuh?
07:20:51B4gderon server 217.112.245.250
07:21:19B4gderso it certainly varies
07:21:35amiconn3.4.x isn't recommended.
07:21:43B4gderI know
07:21:51amiconnThat shoudl be changed, since the target builds are our downloadables
07:22:03amiconnSome use 3.3.4, that's ok
07:22:18amiconnfarsan.haxx.se
07:22:36B4gderthe 217* is Slasheri's
07:23:52B4gderI have a few other ideas to speed things up more
07:23:58amiconnbygg.haxx.se still uses m68k-elf-gcc 3.4.1
07:24:01amiconnooold
07:24:39B4gderyes, lots of them use that version
07:25:30amiconnfarsan uses gcc 3.4.3 for arm.
07:25:44B4gderLinusN: !
07:25:57amiconnIirc there's something wrong with the iPod binaries built on 3.4.x
07:26:03B4gderyes
07:26:54amiconnbygg is the only machine with oldish 3.4.1 for m68k. All others use 3.4.4 or newer
07:27:08B4gderhm, how odd
07:27:16LinusNok, so i should use 4.0.2 for arm?
07:27:23amiconnYes, or 4.0.3

08:20:45Bg3rLinusN perhaps the iriver bootloader should output info on the lcd remotes too (at least i think that it should as rb 3.0 is an iriver release too)
08:21:02LinusNyes, it should
08:22:00*amiconn doesn't agree
08:22:22amiconnWhy make it more complex?
08:22:37amiconnThe remote backlight goes on already as an indicator
08:22:56*amiconn would rather prefer a faster bootloader :/
08:22:57Slasheriamiconn: now the gcc should have been installed
08:23:05amiconnSlasheri: nice :)
08:23:27Slasherihmm, the bootloader could be little faster (about 0.5s) if the checksum calculation is omitted
08:24:12LinusNyes, but that's a pretty bad idea imho
08:26:27LinusNvar ligger rooten för download.rockbox.org?
08:26:32LinusNoops
08:28:53JdGordonthe bootloader is too fast.. it doesnt give enough time to untangle the headphonge cable before music starts again :p
08:29:24Bg3ramiconn sometimes i can't see the remote backlight (try to see it on direct sunlight..)
08:30:16amiconnIt's too slow... With archos I can just press ON twice after connecting it to the car stereo, and it will resume. With iriver I always have to wait for the bootloader to finish before pressing Play a second time makes sure it resumes

09:46:15DJ_Dooms_DayWell i went straight into the rockbox firmware heh, i have no idea what the OF could do
09:46:26K-Blinusn: yes it is
09:46:39K-Bthe iriver software is working
09:46:45K-Bbut can access the hd

09:47:09LinusNK-B: can you connect to another computer
09:47:12LinusN?
09:47:20B4gderDJ_Dooms_Day: the h3x0 can do 10 fps video playback
09:47:35B4gderthe x5 can do 13fps (I guess mainly due to the smaller resolution)
09:47:59DJ_Dooms_Dayx5? That the apple G5 thingy?

09:48:27DJ_Dooms_Dayi dont want a god damn iaudio though :P
09:48:38DJ_Dooms_Daymore importantly, i dont HAVE one
09:48:58B4gderit uses a very similar CPU
09:49:07DJ_Dooms_DayAlso, why the 10fps limitation. hardware?
09:49:09B4gderso the numbers are interesting as a comparison
09:49:15DJ_Dooms_Dayah
09:49:32K-Bdidnt try it yet
09:49:35Bg3rB4gder in fact it uses the *same* cpu, just in a different
09:49:36DJ_Dooms_DayWhat about a less CPU intensive codec?

09:49:41B4gderno
09:49:47B4gderit is different
09:50:10B4gderjust very small differences
09:50:26ZagorDJ_Dooms_Day: rvf is quite cpu friendly :-)
09:50:43phaedrus961EL1, upgrading should be as simple as unzipping the rockbox zip onto your archos. though you may need to fix your settings afterwards

09:50:58Bg3rB4gder ah, yes
09:51:05Bg3rit was 5250 ...
09:51:06ZagorDJ_Dooms_Day: yes, plays on archos models
09:51:37EL1phaedrus961: thanks!
09:51:42DJ_Dooms_DayAre you guys even allowed to support commercial codecs? Wouldn't there be some legal issues or something
09:51:58Bg3rDJ_Dooms_Day support as ?
09:52:05DJ_Dooms_Day*shrugs* wmv?
09:52:18Zagorsome formats are patent encumbered
09:53:08Zagorhowever software patents are illegal in europe
09:53:16DJ_Dooms_DayAlso, why the 10fps too? Is the CPU actually incapable of making 100x100 pixels change more than 10 times a second?

09:54:28B4gderbut feel free to prove it to be wrong number
09:54:44DJ_Dooms_Day...i'm sure your right badger
09:54:45B4gderthe fps I mean
09:54:53B4gderthat's what the OF can do
09:55:06B4gderI don't mean that it is a fixed limit
09:55:38DJ_Dooms_DayOk, and thats 10FPS with audio right?
09:55:56B4gderyes of course
09:57:00DJ_Dooms_DayIs 10 FPS even watchable? :P
09:57:15Bg3rDJ_Dooms_Day in fact it is :)
09:57:34DJ_Dooms_DayI guess you'd get a fair bit of natural smoothing on those LCDs with their low refresh rate.

12:00:28Nico_Pand then trying to extend it in an elegant way
12:00:43Zagorextend with what?
12:01:10Nico_Pwith the possibility to have only one key turning the backlight on

12:03:47ZagorNico_P: yes, but what's the value? it's both confusing and much more complex code
12:03:48Nico_Pit's nice to be able to perform some actions on a single keypress, but sometimes you just want to turn the bakclight on

12:04:19ZagorI think it's very confusing if some keys work and some don't. consistency is important.
12:04:26Nico_Pyes... that's why i suggest first commiting a patch with a simple setting : "on/off"
12:04:34Zagorok, good
12:04:44Nico_Pand then maybe trying to find a way of offering more choice
12:04:53Zagorright.
12:05:27Nico_Pok so i'll make a simple version
12:05:39Nico_Pand have you looked at how it works ?
12:06:35Zagoryes, the principle is sound I think. and removing the H300-specific parts will make the patch much more elegant.
12:06:51Nico_Pok
12:07:07Zagorpossibly we may want this to be only for colour targets
12:07:26Zagorno, keep it totally generic
12:07:36Nico_Por the ones that have a backlight
12:07:43Zagorit might be nice to have even for gray/bw targets: in the car at night for instance
12:07:44Nico_Pmaybe they all have one ?
12:07:52Zagorafaik all targets have backlight
12:07:57Nico_Pok
12:08:13MoosOndios haven't
12:08:16amiconnno
12:08:24amiconnMoos is correct
12:08:26Zagorah. conditional on backlight then.
12:08:30Nico_Pok
12:09:04amiconnNico_P: I'd say conditional on backlight, plus the default should be different whether the lcd is readable w/o backlight or not
12:09:51Nico_Pso maybe default to on only for color screens ?
12:10:01Nico_Pand off for others...

12:52:40Mikachuit's even easier if you can steal it :)
12:53:03Mikachuthat was markun's patch btw
12:54:32JdGordon*yoink*
12:55:40 Quit quobl (Remote closed the connection)
12:55:44Mikachumaybe you could make saturation and/or value less than full for the trailing polygons
12:55:51Mikachunot sure how they're drawn though
12:58:04preglowamiconn: what's involved in the lang rework?
12:58:50preglowGalois: what, which format?
12:58:51JdGordonso, whats hsv white?
12:58:54Mikachulostlogic: i just realized backlight handling would be easier with the touch/untouch aware code, we can just make sure backlight isn't turned off while the finger is still on the wheel
12:58:56markunit's a quick hack
12:58:56preglowGalois: and i assume you're using the very latest build?
12:59:13GaloisI did a cvs update like 15 minutes ago
12:59:25preglowgimme a sec and i'll test
12:59:37Galoisoh, my music is in the vorbis file format
12:59:52MikachuJdGordon: any hue, saturation 0 and value 1
13:00
13:00:02MikachuJdGordon: if the scale goes from 0 to 1
13:00:21JdGordonwhat does the scale normally go from?
13:00:58Mikachuthe scale used in that code is listed at the top
13:01:03Bg3rsuggestion for shorter name than "HAVE_READABLE_SCREEN_WITHOUT_BACKLIGHT"? maybe HAVE_READABLE_SCREEN?

13:02:51preglownow what
13:02:55preglowmy ipod wont bloody play music
13:03:11Mikachuwhat, why would you want to play music? you're supposed to write code
13:03:14LinusNpreglow: no, but it is trendy
13:03:32preglowTHERE it comes
13:03:38preglowafter buffering for a bloody day and a half
13:03:45Galoisso yours works?
13:04:10preglow'works', no, i wouldn't say that
13:04:26Bg3rLinusN so, what do you suggest as define ?
13:04:37Galoispreglow the same error happens on an unmodified CVS build

13:04:49LinusNHAVE_READABLE_SCREEN_WITHOUT_BACKLIGHT is fine for me

13:10:17t0mas[07:17:09] <amiconn> We're now having some 64bit sims among the sim builds....
13:10:18t0mas[07:17:31] <amiconn> Actually only one in the last 3 rounds so far
13:10:26t0masthat's because I assed the sdl target later in your list
13:10:36t0masso it only does them when there are some left :)
13:11:34*preglow looks forward to the spurious and confusing 64 bit related warnings in the build table..
13:12:53preglowGalois: your unit actually crashes?
13:12:57preglowGalois: that doesn't happen here
13:12:59Galoisyeah, have to reset
13:13:45preglowARGH
13:13:55preglowi don't have time for this
13:15:00amiconnt0mas: That's also because the first builds take rather long. ccache has to fill up
13:15:06t0masyes
13:15:20amiconnBtw, I don't see a problem extending the max. ccache size a bit
13:15:41amiconn(dunno whether that helps)
13:15:56Bg3rLinusN and now a name for the actual var ?
13:16:03amiconnIt seems ccache stabilised at ~300MB for all SH1 + arm target builds
13:16:15MikachuLinusN: HAVE_LÄSBAR_SLÄCKT_SKÄRM is shorter :)
13:16:21t0masamiconn: ccache −−help
13:16:26t0masthere is an option to show what the limit is
13:16:49t0masyou can set it higher if you want. Some people have it lower, because not all servers have that much diskspace
13:16:49LinusNBg3r: global_settings.ignore_first_button perhaps?
13:17:12Galoispreglow, I built it on my x86 machine, and it suddenly works now

13:18:17Bg3rfst_key_backlight ?
13:18:23preglowGalois: how works?
13:18:30preglowdoes it play mp3s still?
13:18:33safetydanpreglow, haven't had a chance to look at it again yet, but I suspect it's outputting 'backwards' values (i.e. 1 == LONG_MIN)
13:18:42preglow'cause it sure as hell doesn't here
13:18:45Galoisoh I didn't test mp3s. It plays vorbis normally.

13:20:15preglowbackwards on the wheel = up
13:20:19safetydanWell 0.999999993 comes out as 0x8000000e... which I think is backwards
13:20:20preglowGalois: eh...
13:20:44preglowsafetydan: if the first is the input, then the answer should be almost zero
13:20:46tucozi.e \ButtonScrollFwd and \ButtonScrollBack
13:20:53preglowand is almost zero
13:21:00preglowit's -0.00000something
13:21:08LinusNBg3r: why does the variable name have to have a reference to the backlight?
13:22:30safetydanfsin(0) == 0x00000009 at the moment...

13:24:41GaloisI only tested one mp3 file
13:24:51preglowi've tested tons
13:24:55preglowit locks up with a disk access symbol
13:24:55preglowwell
13:24:57preglownot locks up
13:25:00preglowbut the audio stops
13:25:20Mikachudidn't you change some codec iram things?
13:25:35preglowno
13:25:46preglowi corrected some in playback.c
13:25:53preglowbut that just made voice ui work

13:54:37XavierGrx server alone with the window management is 150 MB
13:54:46XavierGrGnome is 600MB
13:55:10amiconnWell, you need at least a window manager. That could be gnome
13:55:12B4gderwhich is why I mentioned you don't need gnome
13:55:19Zagorthe "gnome" metapackage includes lots of apps aswell. you don't need all that.
13:55:24XavierGrI guess that the image that is destributed must be updated to contain X and sdl pre-installed

14:19:15preglowhmm
14:19:16austriancoderi look at the datasheet, but at the moment i can find anything
14:19:23preglowshould we add some simple eq shelving filters to emulate it, though?
14:19:42preglowor should we instead just ask people to use the full eq?

14:20:39preglowmaking some simple first order shelving filters shouldn't be hard
14:20:46preglowas a matter of fact, i need to do it anyway, for the new crossfeed
14:21:12Bg3rokay, iirc amiconn said, that only ondios don't have backlight... the user_settings struct has all backlight vars on it too (they're not ifdef-ed). However, many plugins use them directly (without checking ifdef CONFIG_BACKLIGHT).

14:31:38B4gderin the devel option in configure
14:31:43preglowmerbanan: so i can transform them to the z-domain
14:32:36merbananpreglow: so what you actually need is a first order digital IIR filter ?
14:32:44preglowmerbanan: yup
14:32:53preglowmerbanan: i assume that's what the codec chips use, at least
14:33:27preglowmerbanan: the way to get good parameterisable digital filters is usually to start with an analogue one
14:34:20preglowi believe i've found what i need

14:37:09austriancoderB4gder: i cant find logf in developer menu in rockbox
14:37:10preglowneed to design them from scratch
14:37:42B4gderin configure, not rockbox
14:37:57austriancoderah okay
14:38:02merbananpreglow: what is the intended use of the filters ?
14:38:16austriancoderB4gder: found it
14:39:51preglowmerbanan: equalisation
14:40:03preglowmerbanan: or in this case, just good old bass and treble boost
14:41:55merbananok, then I'm of no help :) never did something like that, but the web must be full of that kind of info
14:42:03*austriancoder fixes logfdisp.c for x5

14:42:46Mikachuoh
14:42:53Mikachufor playback too?
14:42:54B4gderthere once was such a patch at least
14:43:06B4gderfor playback, yes
14:43:08preglowof course it's possible
14:43:15preglowyou've got the brightness control
14:43:17Mikachuwell, the uv meters look a bit laggy
14:43:19preglowjust pulse it like you want
14:43:22Bg3rpreglow what are you working on atm?
14:43:31Mikachui meant if it's possible to do it nicely without being steppy
14:44:02preglowBg3r: real work, i'm just taking a break to find out how to design shelving filters for the new crossfeed (and possible bass and treble boost for the units that don't have that in hardware)
14:44:22preglowMikachu: you'd need to filter the control signal before using it to control the backlight, but sure
14:44:28preglowMikachu: i imagine it'd work just nice
14:44:32Mikachuokay
14:44:47preglowa simple moving average would probably do very well
14:44:56Mikachuor you could just run with a really low battery and the loud sound would lower the voltage on the backlight

16:37:39*Cassandra posts corrections to the wired article.
16:37:55preglowlostlogic: on ipod
16:38:07Cassandralostlogic: It has more jam in it, therefore less friction, therefore faster.

16:44:52CassandraWith difficulty, I guess. Amiconn would know.
16:45:09CassandraOh, sorry.
16:45:17tucozprobably. I'll just fix the rest, and leave the ondio assignments wrong for now

16:46:03webguest46hmm, so no way of creating a playlist for albums only ?
16:46:10CassandraI'm somewhat confused as to why you'd do that if you had an album per directory.
16:46:23CassandraJust go to the directory and play the first file.
16:46:24webguest46for album shuffle playback
16:46:41CassandraTurn on shuffle before you play the first file in that case.
16:46:54Mikachuhe wants to play tracks in one album in order, but select which album randomly
16:47:01webguest46no cassandra, I would like random albums not randon tracks
16:47:09CassandraOh, right. Duh. Excuse me.

16:47:48webguest46there must be a way, I keep digging
16:48:30Mikachuyou'll have to dig all the way to a C tutorial
16:48:48tucozI guess it's doable with a perl script
16:49:14webguest46I think some tagging programs have the ability, maybe even foobar
16:49:27tucozgather directories in random order, and add the files from within the directory to a playlist
16:49:49Mikachusure, but you get the same random order every time
16:50:00webguest46or I manually append .m3u to each files name :)
16:50:16 Quit lamed ("CGI:IRC")
16:50:25Mikachuyou can't have .m3u files in a playlist currently
16:50:34Mikachuand even if you could, they would still be loaded into a linear playlist

16:50:46t0masehm...
16:50:47*webguest46 sighs
16:50:48Mikachui think i saw a patch regarding this
16:50:52t0masno, that m3u trick might be the solution
16:50:59t0masthere is a patch to allow sub playlists iirc
16:51:08t0masyou can add the playlist from every dir to 1 big list
16:51:18t0masthen set that big list to play shuffeled
16:51:24Mikachui meant current cvs only
16:51:48webguest46t0mas, thats what I was thinking, it should work
16:52:21*webguest46 doesn't relish the thought of renaming 600 files manually
16:52:49Mikachuwhy would you even get the idea to do that manually?

17:18:31tucozCassandra, I defined a \dap macro in each of the platform files.
17:19:43tucozIt's then easy to change that to whatever you want. For now all those are changed to 'player' now, but the ipods could be called 'Ipod' if that feels natural
17:21:09CassandraDo you have \daps too?
17:21:50tucozCassandra, no
17:22:02CassandraMight be an idea.

17:40:18lostlogicpreglow: yes, but the limit on wheel speed is how fast the application can handle events, not how fast they are sent
17:40:49lostlogicthe wheel events already include how large of a delta caused them, so applications could be recoded to ask for button events and then move multiple lines in one event if the delta is large
17:41:13dproguys what's the preferred way to pause/unpause (and is there a way to really pause on the spot, not this fade out and in again) .. that's terrible for dj mode ;)

17:42:23preglowbut yeah, i know the limit is the handlinmg
17:42:28preglowthat's basically what i was talking about

17:44:28Mikachuokoay
17:44:36preglowi think it's heaps less sensitive than the ipod click wheel
17:44:44lostlogicso SOMEONE should implement button_get_event and button_get_event_w_tmo and use them with the scroll data to do stuff, or change button_get to save the event data and make it available through an additional call if the application wants it

18:02:57lostlogicyes, I've never figured out insert next vs. insert.
18:02:57preglowahh, right
18:02:58Mikachuso maybe they should be removed?
18:03:08preglowinsert inserts at the end of the insertion list..........
18:03:08preglowinsert next disregards it
18:03:08ender`btw, would it be possible to add a shortcut for Queue (or Queue next), similarly to how the iriver original firmware had?
18:03:08Nico_P"insert next" inserts after the current playing song. "insert" inserts after the last inserted song
18:03:16Mikachupreglow: so if i insert many things, they will be in the "correct" order?
18:03:18preglowthis is convoluted
18:03:19Mikachui see
18:03:26Mikachuthat's not easy to figure out, but useful
18:03:30preglowindeed
18:03:38Nico_Pyes. very useful

18:10:13Mikachuwould it be too stupid to rename "Insert" to "Smart insert" ?
18:10:14preglowsafetydan: nah, it's in the x and y ones
18:10:15KyomiI noticed a problem before I went to class
18:10:27preglowMikachu: i think something like that might work, yes
18:10:40Mikachuthat would make you at least suspect it did something useful
18:10:47preglowMikachu: it implies it does more than just insert, while the current name implies a mere fixed point insert
18:10:52KyomiIf you have shuffle off and a wps that that shows the next song info, it'll just sit there saying "Loading..." if the next song is in another directory
18:10:53Mikachuyeah
18:10:59KyomiIs there a way to fix that?
18:11:02safetydanpreglow, it should be in the x,y ones as I spent a lot of effort getting z to work unsigned
18:11:13preglowsafetydan: x = -x

18:13:25preglowlostlogic: sounds like a well-thought out design :-)
18:13:31lostlogicpreglow: the problem with voice UI while paused is where to buffer the voice playback data
18:13:39KyomiIs that the way the wps "sdk" is set up? Or a problem in how the information is read?
18:13:47preglowlostlogic: a valid problem
18:13:56KyomiHmmm
18:13:57preglowlostlogic: i think voice ui should have special treatment in some way, by the way
18:14:00lostlogicKyomi: the problem is that the next dir is not in the playlist until you finisht eh current
18:14:11preglowlostlogic: like working on a shorter buffer being mixed in at the final stage before output
18:14:26t0maslostlogic: yes I do
18:14:32preglowcurrently, the voice ui latency is ridiculous
18:14:36KyomiI have an idea... do you think it'd be possible to get DOSbox working on an iRiver H320?
18:14:37 Quit Febs ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
18:14:37t0mas[17:30:45] <lostlogic> t0mas: do you control the list of build servers?
18:14:40lostlogicpreglow: it does, currently ~1/5 second chunks are buffered and mixed from at the nearest possible insertion point
18:15:01lostlogicpreglow: attempts to move it closer have caused flakey problems so far with playback overtaking voice insertion
18:15:23safetydanKyomi, not likely unfortunately. You need (roughly) 10 times the CPU power to emulate a given CPU.

18:15:35bobTHChi
18:15:37t0masyes I can
18:15:40lostlogicthanks
18:15:46safetydanKyomi, so something like a 33Mhz 386 would need a 330MHz processor on your player
18:16:00preglowsafetydan: yep, that was it
18:16:09Kyomiargh
18:16:17*Kyomi replaces the processor
18:16:21KyomiOh
18:16:30KyomiThis is kinda an odd question
18:16:32safetydanKyomi, just the overhead of interpreting the instructions for the old processor and doing the same on the new one
18:16:48safetydanpreglow, cool... wish there was an easy way to check if things were 64-bit clean before commit
18:16:55KyomiBut is it possible to replace the HD in my iRiver h320 with a bigger one?
18:16:58safetydanfor us 32-bit kiddies anyway
18:17:00preglowsafetydan: there isn't
18:17:00safetydanKyomi, yes
18:17:02KyomiI know they have like 40GB ones
18:17:10KyomiI'd like to get one
18:17:15lostlogicpreglow: in order to do voice while paused, we would have to _stop_ rather than pausing the playback hardware, save the current position in the buffer as the resume position, and then feed a specialized section of the pcmbuffer to the playback hardware as voice clips are decoded, it'd be difficult to work that in, as you can imagine... unless you have a better idea
18:17:38Kyomisafetydan: Is that because the "Bios" of it is in a lil flash memory?
18:17:55safetydanKyomi, no, just the amount of CPU power required
18:17:55t0maslostlogic: changed
18:18:11preglowlostlogic: i actually think stopping playback might actually be a viable solution, not allowing voice ui when paused will annoy a lot of people
18:18:13t0masSlasheri: changed your server's ip to ihme.org that's the right one?
18:18:14lostlogicKyomi: if possible you'll want to match the number of platters in the hard drive or it makes fitting all the components in very difficult, the largest single platter is 40gb now, but just be careful when purchasing
18:18:27preglowlostlogic: until we get something more clever going, at least
18:18:31safetydanKyomi, http://www.misticriver.net/wiki/index.php/Customize_Your_H3xx has some information about drive replacements
18:18:33lostlogicpreglow: yeah, it's something I plan to do, but probably not for 3.0
18:18:37Slasherit0mas: yep, that's correct :)
18:18:41t0masok
18:18:47Kyomisafetydan: ty
18:18:50t0masI wasn't sure if it had to be .net or .org
18:18:56*preglow does does the mandatory tagcache status request
18:18:59lostlogicKyomi: nothing to do with a bios, just the instructions that run on the actual CPU

18:19:24gunpowdaare there any plans to develop an ipod id3 database for rockbox?
18:19:41lostlogicgunpowda: preglow was just bothering slasheri about the status of the new tagcache.
18:19:43gunpowdaI love the features it offers over the normal ipod firmware, but I do mix the id3 based system too
18:20:08ohrnhum, how are the pixels laid out in memory on a H100 player?
18:20:27Slasheripreglow: maybe next week, too busy right now :/
18:20:34ohrnhowever I try to get the packing method right all I get is junk on the screen
18:20:52safetydanohrn, isn't there already a macro to do it for you?
18:20:56Slasheripreglow: about three different paid works at the moment i have to finish to some state first..
18:21:00gunpowdalostlogic, Slasheri, is the tagcache a similar system to apple's firmware then?
18:21:11ohrndunno, where?
18:21:12Slasherigunpowda: yes
18:21:16preglowSlasheri: as it's scheduled for 3.0, it might be clever to commit it and allow other people to work on it, or at least find out if there's a chance of it being finished until then
18:21:18crashdohrn: you using rgbpack ?
18:21:23Slasheripartially at least, it's generated on the device
18:21:39preglowSlasheri: i think making the old code work again is going to take some effort if we need it, heh
18:21:48Slasheripreglow: yes, i will do that as soon as i do the fix for the chunked browsing
18:22:07safetydanohrn, use LCD_RGBPACK or at least look at the definition for h100
18:22:08Slasherii don't want to commit it before that, because it requires some mandatory changes to the code

18:31:52lostlogicdpro: so soemtimes when you press pause, the music doesn't pause immediately?
18:31:59safetydan79 even
18:32:45dprolostlogic: it pauses mostly fine but it's hard to predict when exaxtly it will resume
18:33:49lostlogicdpro: I just fiddled with it a bit, seems like when the resume is sent very close to the pause, it delays... thi smay be a limitation of the hardware's pause/resume cycle, not sure at this point
18:34:09dprolostlogic: resume can happen immediately or can take up to half a second ... it seems when I keep the pause up for longer it takes longer to resume
18:36:29lostlogicdpro: oh, that's the opposite of what I was having.
18:36:40gunpowdais the album art feature buggy or worthwhile?
18:37:15Nico_Pgunpowda: it's not buggy, but it's only worthwile if you intend to use it :p

20:29:55preglowcan always remove it again, i suppose

20:30:27Nico_Pts-x: yes, it uses the album tag
20:30:37ts-xNico_P: The reason I ask, is that when I was setting similar functionality up in foobar2000 last weekend and noticed a problem with album name instead of folder name.
20:30:56Nico_Pwhat kinf of problem ?
20:31:00Nico_Pkind
20:31:21ts-xAlbums names with characters such as '/' in them cannot have associated image files

20:31:35Nico_Pvery true
20:31:53Nico_Pin this case the album art probably just won't be found
20:31:54safetydanIs it just me or are the comments in dsp.c slightly messed up?
20:32:00tucozamiconn, around? How do you go to the file-browser and also show the pitch screen on the ondio?
20:32:07safetydanThe comment starting at line 520 doesn't seem to belong there
20:32:13ts-xYeah...I ended up defaulting the foobar plugin to folder name because of that
20:32:40amiconntucoz: Pitch screen is in the wps context menu (only, and merely since a few days)
20:32:43Nico_Ppersonally i've never seen an album with "/" in it's title..
20:32:49ts-xIt's either that or change the tag values to remove the characters that present issues
20:32:54preglowsafetydan: i have just now fixed it
20:32:59safetydanah okay
20:33:06tucozamiconn, ok. And to go to the file-browser?
20:33:08preglowit's in a patch i'm testing for h120 right now

20:33:39gunpowdait always then throws errors about not being able to find the relative path
20:33:46Nico_Pwell you can still use cover.bmp
20:33:52ts-xGood point
20:33:56gunpowdabut if I type in, say, apps/onplay.c or something it'll oatch ok
20:33:59Mikachugunpowda: some patches are made in the dir that contains apps
20:34:11Mikachugunpowda: and you usually need to give one of -p0 or -p1 too
20:34:14ts-xMight be a little confusing to the masses though...
20:34:31gunpowdawhat do those switches do?
20:34:35Nico_Pit all depends on how your music is organised
20:34:55Mikachugunpowda: man patch
20:35:19Nico_Pi don't use <album title>.bmp... only cover.bmp and a few of <filename.bmp>
20:35:32Nico_Pthat's because each album is in a dir of it's own

20:38:58Nico_Pwhat's the other stuff ?
20:39:11crashdwell, i was playing with some demoo effect type stuff, trying to port a modulo tunnel effect to rockbox
20:39:20Mikachushouldn't it be pretty easy to write a bmp viewer plugin?
20:39:21crashdbut i couldnt get it to output anything other than garbage
20:39:31crashdso i need to find some time to figure out why it's not working
20:39:35crashdas it's a pretty simple piece of code
20:39:47gunpowdawell, regardless of the switches I use
20:39:51Papricammm it's very annoying to rezise the album art bitmaps to 100x100, 75x75 (the wps album art sizes)
20:39:56gunpowdait says it needs to patch rockbox/apps/onplay.c but it can't find it
20:40:02gunpowdaif I type in 'rockbox/apps/onplay.c' it works

20:40:35gunpowdaI've tried in both src and rockbox
20:40:48crashdusing the -px switch?

21:04:30lostlogicbagh, why does bubbles stop playback!/
21:04:41lostlogicit is _not_ processor intensive
21:04:49preglowno yield?
21:05:09Mikachuit has a yield
21:05:17lostlogicthat's what I'm thinking... but if it even button_gets it should offer enough yield time... but audio playback stops even when no buttons are being pressed
21:05:23Mikachuand also a sleep
21:05:23Nico_Pthat's work for the code police !
21:05:30Mikachu if(currenttick-lasttick < HZ/MAX_FPS) {

21:07:37Mikachui think it always draws the frame at FPS fps, but i can't promise anything
21:08:26Mikachuthere are 3 places with a /* framerate limiting */ thing, but one of them doesn't have an else { yield } thing
21:08:29Mikachumaybe that's it?
21:08:59Mikachumy track record for fixing bugs in bubbles isn't very good though :)
21:09:07lostlogicthe button loop doesn't yield ever
21:09:36lostlogicwhy does it use a non-blocking cpu eating button loop
21:09:48lostlogicit should use a button_get_w_tmo or button_get(true)

21:12:27Mikachuoh right, button_get not button_status
21:12:29lostlogichmm... the root of the problem is less obvious tan I previously thought.
21:12:34gunpowdaI missed your earlier reply
21:13:48Mikachui think the code is a bit hard to follow, many nested returns and stuff
21:13:52lostlogicyeah
21:14:26lostlogicline 2525 I think is missing a yield.

21:14:45Mikachuyeah that's the one i suspected earlier :)
21:15:07lostlogicsigh. *isslow*
21:16:38lostlogicwhat's confusing about bubbles is that frames are drawn all over the place, and therefore there are several places where frame rate limitting and buttons are processed

21:25:14Nico_Pi think it was that one : http://www.rockbox.org/viewcvs.cgi/apps/plugins/bubbles.c.diff?r1=1.1&r2=1.2
21:25:33lostlogicmakes sense
21:25:49Mikachuthe animations doesn't seem to depend on fps though
21:26:26lostlogichrm?
21:26:31Nico_Pthat's when i started having playback skips... the problem probably existed before
21:26:35Mikachuit looks slower with lower fps, not just choppier
21:26:43lostlogicah
21:26:53lostlogicso the animations are drawn with movement-per-frame
21:26:59lostlogicas opposed to movement per time
21:27:12Mikachuso it would seem
21:27:20lostlogicit's an impressive game actually just needs some work as most of rockbox does :-p
21:27:39lostlogicthe bubbles falling animation is particularly impressive to me as a total non-game programmer

21:34:51RotAtoRhmm, ok, i'll have a look

21:38:16lostlogicRotAtoR: *nod* at the moment I don't have any brilliant thoughts, but it might be possible to have the handle buttons only called from the main loop and not from the other animation loops... or is it a game requirement that input cancels animations and 'skips ahead' to the next complete state?

21:40:11Mikachuwhen animations are running you want full fps of course, so you only need the extra sleeping when nothing is running... so the only things that can cause movement on screen is the Hurry thing and the user pressing a button
21:40:22Mikachuso just button_get_w_tmo(time to next Hurry) should do it?
21:40:26lostlogicdpro: I forget, is seemless_seek taking a time or byte value?
21:40:43Mikachuif i'm missing some important part just ignore me
21:40:50lostlogicdpro: either way, the id3 struct contains offset and elapsed values that should give you whichever value you need
21:40:56lostlogicI think it's the elapsed tie in MS that you seek to
21:40:58lostlogictime
21:41:04RotAtoRMikachu: possibly, i may have to rethink some of the timing code then
21:41:25Mikachui also noticed the animation speeds seem to depend on fps
21:41:29webguest26how do I hide folders in rockbox from explorer
21:41:32Mikachubut that's less important
21:41:49Mikachuexplorer?
21:41:59lostlogicpreglow: did you forget the dsp_arm.S file?
21:42:01webguest26windows explorer
21:42:20Mikachui'm not sure why you'd want to, but you can try setting the hidden and/or system attribute on them
21:42:21dprolostlogic: I guess it's frames
21:42:29Mikachuthere are options in explorer to show files with those attributes though
21:42:31webguest26if i name the file .something will it work
21:42:37lostlogicpreglow: nvm
21:42:39dprolastlogic: or time in what then ? msec ?
21:42:44***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
21:43:03lostlogicdpro: it's time in msec, I believe that's how all seeking is based now that I think about it
21:43:27Mikachui'm pretty sure bookmarks save the times in ms
21:44:35webguest26how does rockbox hide its files
21:45:12preglowlostlogic: it doesn't exist yet
21:45:20lostlogicpreglow: yeah, I figured taht out, I'm just a bit slow.
21:45:40preglowi figure it'll come when i do new resamplers and stuff
21:45:44preglowthere's a new crossfeed coming too
21:45:44safetydanwebguest26, it either respest the hidden attribute or hides files starting with . (unless you have the Show All Files option turned on)
21:45:48lostlogicthe rabies eating my brain is my excuse
21:46:26webguest26thank you,
21:46:29 Part webguest26
