#rockbox log for 2006-04-14

00:00:10Mikachugerman ipod owners must be the worst
00:00:25Hyperbitwhy?
00:00:28luckzdo you mainly frequent the ipod section or are you (rightfully) implying that apple customers in general are of the less computer-savy kind?
00:00:54amiconnMikachu: ???
00:01:02Mikachuheh
00:01:06luckzHyperbit: because ipod owners are part of the "it has to work and I'm not at fault" crowd while germans generally all fail at english
00:01:13luckzbad combination, I tell you.
00:01:27amiconnluckz: ?????
00:01:32luckzamiconn: hy2u
00:01:37Paul_The_Nerdluckz: I'm basically the Angel of Answers in the forum. I try to support as many people wherever there are questions. I know the Ipod port is one of the least mature ports (and thusly more new users) but I have to say the quality of the questions, and the ability of the users to provide useful information when given explicit instructions is markably lower in the Ipod portion of our forums.
00:01:44Mikachuamiconn: not everyone, only in general :)
00:02:04Hyperbit.whois Hyperbit /Address: n=thecrow@p54BCCE0F.dip0.t-ipconnect.de
00:02:07luckzamiconn: what exactly does your question mark group tell us?

00:04:27Hyperbit5 german in here ;)
00:04:31Mikachuamiconn: this was how i reached my conclusion, <Paul_The_Nerd> luckz: I see it surprisingly often in the Rockbox forums (primarily in the Ipod section) + <luckz> Paul: it's a natural trait of germans online, if you haven't noticed. the whole accurate problem description thing.
00:04:50Mikachuit was also sort of a joke
00:05:03luckza rather obvious one at that
00:05:35 Quit quobl (SendQ exceeded)
00:05:51luckz00:04:28 < Hyperbit> 5 german in here ;) <- how do you reach that count exactly, btw?

00:06:04cariniHow is replaygain preamp + clipping protection any different than simply turning up the volume?
00:06:17 Quit petur ("zzzz")
00:06:40 Join Matixs [0] (n=host@nazgul.coolnet.cz)
00:07:04luckzcarini: I assume it's turning up the volume in a way that prevents clipping?
00:07:19Hyperbithmm some years ago i had learnd to calc 1+1+1+1+1 ;D
00:07:20 Quit Fitzsimmons (Remote closed the connection)
00:07:23Hyperbitchanel stats
00:07:51luckzHyperbit: I manually counted at least six though. and that was without looking properly. thus I wonder how you reached your magic five.
00:07:58Matixshello, where i can find which packages i need to compile rockbox under Ubuntu?
00:08:06Paul_The_Nerdcarini: Well, preamp is applied as part of the replaygain process, and the clipping protection only applies to it, whereas the volume I think is applied by a hardware method.
00:08:07Hyperbithehe K ;)
00:08:38Paul_The_NerdMatixs: The CrossCompiler wiki page tells you which compiler versions you need, I think
00:09:03cariniPaul_The_Nerd: Yeah, okay. So it basically just shifts the "target" for the replaygain.
00:09:37Paul_The_NerdBasically, yes.
00:09:39cariniI.e., it doesn't do any kind of compression.
00:09:51Paul_The_NerdI'm not sure how the "prevent clipping" portion of it is handled though
00:10:02 Join webguest89 [0] (n=d4406110@labb.contactor.se)
00:10:07Hyperbituhhh 0oclock ... Snoozzle doozle... good night
00:10:34MatixsPaul_The_Nerd: Thaks :)
00:11:04Paul_The_NerdMatixs: You'll also need SDL for the simulators, and tetex and tetex-extra (or something like that) for the Manual
00:11:12MatixsPaul_The_Nerd: *thank you
00:11:24Myth1guys I need some help: I added a new codec, type "sid". I added things to metadata.c id3.c and created sid.c. When I select my sid file I see that the metadata is parsed but the codec is not loaded and I get "no file". any ideas what could cause this?
00:11:33 Part webguest89
00:12:54cariniPaul_The_Nerd: It looks like it reduces the total gain (including pregain) using the peak sample value in the tags to avoid clipping. I.e., it's not doing "hard limited", so no dynamics compression is happening.
00:13:16MatixsPaul_The_Nerd: i compile rockbox under cygwin already, but under ubuntu this is slightly different.
00:13:16 Quit lee-qid_ ("Trillian (http://www.ceruleanstudios.com")
00:14:19Paul_The_Nerdcarini: Ah, so it checks the track_peak value and reduces the total gain so that the peak never reaches/passes 0?
00:14:41cariniLooks like it.
00:14:47Paul_The_NerdMatixs: Aaah. Well, it's actually exactly the same if you used Cygwin before the packages were available. ;-) But good luck. :)
00:14:55scottderOk here is a silly question...whats the diffence between the daily builds and the CVS builds?
00:15:16Paul_The_Nerdcarini: That's what I would've guessed it did, but I figured I shouldn't say it because it seems when I say "I'm guessing X does Y" people often interpret it as "X does Y. This is fact." :)
00:15:28Paul_The_Nerdscottder: Anywhere from Nothing to 23:59
00:15:42Paul_The_Nerdscottder: The CVS builds are made every time a change is committed to the CVS repository.

01:15:18Aveor any other manufacturers for that matter
01:15:29Mikachuit's not much they can do with software updates
01:15:41Mikachusince you can install it from the emergency disk mode which is on rom i think

01:16:26amiconnA new on-disk firmware could update the flash rom
01:16:57Mikachuthe rom is flash on ipods?
01:17:21amiconnThe rom is actually flash eeprom on all targets
01:17:41Mikachuhm, i will try to remember not to update the apple software then
01:18:09amiconnJust most of the old archos players, and a fraction of the archos recorders have flash roms that are not in-circuit flashable
01:18:24amiconn(But there are pin-compatible roms which are)
01:18:35Mikachui take it no one has figured out the interface for ipod flash roms then
01:18:44amiconnThere is no special interface
01:18:52amiconnIt should be quite simple
01:19:08amiconnIts just a command sequence that's written to special addresses
01:19:09Aveamiconn: so in theory its possible to screw up ipod for good if you happen to overwrite the flash rom?
01:19:18amiconnFor my mini 2g, I even know the flash rom type
01:19:38amiconnAve: Yes, but it's very unlikely for that to happen
01:20:11amiconnYou need to send the special command sequence to switch to programming mode
01:20:39***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
01:21:01AveI recall stuff like AA,55,00,... for amd flash chips..
01:21:22amiconnThe Mini 2G flash rom is an SST39VF800A: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IPodMini2GInfo
01:21:23Avewell thats writing directly to address bus and you have to set stuff like cs and whatnot beforehand..
01:21:58amiconnI'll add flash rom type detection to the ipods, the same way as on archos, iriver,...
01:22:08Aveyou guys happen to know how common these chirping sounds and other audio anomalies are in portable players?
01:22:32Aveand what causes them, my guess is on poor voltage regulation and so on, hardware design faults
01:24:29amiconnAve: This AA,55... stuff seems common for all flash roms. Only difference is between flash roms with 8bit and 16bit data bus.
01:24:46Mikachuso you could dump the flash rom pretty easily?
01:25:03Mikachuif you were the adventurous type
01:25:23amiconnDumping is the most simple thing
01:25:35amiconnYou just need to know the address and length
01:26:05amiconnThen open a file, and write(fh, (void *)rom_start, rom_length);

02:25:17Mikachuonly the disk size is different
02:26:11Aveyeah
02:26:31Mikachuand 1GB is certainly enough for rockbox
02:26:32Avein reality, flash chip count or capacity
02:26:52AveI'm thinking about the 2G model
02:27:00Mikachuthat's the one i have too
02:27:05Mikachui won it, cheap bastards ;)
02:27:05Avenow I have 1G mp3 player which can seat around 13 albums in good quality
02:27:23Mikachurockbox supports ogg so you can have smaller files for the same value of quality :)
02:27:29Galoisyeah 13 albums is weak
02:27:32Aveunfortunately I encode at q7
02:27:35Galois1G should fit at least 20
02:27:41Aveand vorbis peeling is where?
02:27:42Paul_The_NerdAve: It works fine on 2g and 4g ones. I've heard no complaints about extra problems with 1g ones, but I've never personally talked to a 1g owner. I've read every post in the forums for 4 months though, and no 1g complaints.
02:27:49Galoisogg q2 is already better than lame-128k!
02:27:57Avesure
02:28:17Avebut I dont want to recode nor transcode anything but use as is
02:28:29Mikachunearcd quality isn't my number one concern for a portable player
02:28:48Mikachuespecially on something as small as the nano
02:28:49Aveisnt one for me either, but I'm just using the files I have
02:28:58Mikachuyou'll be happy to know i transcode 192kbps or higher to -q3 ogg
02:29:00Paul_The_NerdAve: Well, Rockbox on Nano plays Q7 vorbis fine if you don't use an equalizer. At least, it did for me.
02:29:08Aveunless vorbis bitrate peeling magically happens, I have to use the q7 ogg's
02:29:31Aveoh yeah, does rb actually implement eq for vorbis?
02:29:32GaloisA 200GB drive costs less than the mp3 player. You can rip all your CDs to flac and transcode from flac.
02:29:39Mikachueq works on pcm data
02:29:43Mikachuit would work on any codec you tried
02:29:45Aveoh really

02:30:07Mikachubut like Paul_The_Nerd said, the eq and q7 vorbis probably won't go hand in hand yet
02:30:09Avesee in the cheap crap its so easy to manipulate mp3 frequency bins rather than time domain data
02:30:40Paul_The_NerdAve: We have a full parametric equalizer. It's a lot more powerful than most cheap, or even expensive, DAPs offer you
02:30:45Aveso the rb eq is using something computationally intensive since its working in time domain
02:31:04 Quit damaki__ (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
02:31:08Paul_The_NerdWell, the main thing is that the codecs still need a lot of optimization on the Ipod.
02:31:12Mikachuthere is also "bass" and "treble" settings that should be cheaper to use
02:31:38Paul_The_NerdMikachu: Yeah, but the Bass and Treble settings suck on Ipod. I understand it's more "the hardware sucks" kinda thing though
02:31:51Mikachui didn't know they weren't software
02:32:09Paul_The_NerdBass and Treble are hardware
02:32:33Aveis rb using tremor reference implementation or is it optimized?
02:32:34Mikachuthat would explain why the settings took effect at the head of the buffer
02:32:43Mikachui think it's just tremor right now
02:32:48Galoisonly minimally optimized
02:33:04Mikachuit's faster than the mp3 decoder still though :)
02:33:07Mikachu(on ipods)
02:33:08Paul_The_NerdAve: I don't believe there's any ARM-specific opts made by the Rockbox team yet, or at least not many.
02:33:10Mikachu(i heard)
02:33:22Aveyeah I dont really have a need for eq per-se, other than to conpensate for booming bass depending on the headphones
02:33:27Paul_The_NerdAve: Some work has gone into the m68k one though, so I expect some will happen eventually
02:34:01Aveeh wow, faster vorbis decoder than mp3..
02:34:15 Join angelashes [0] (n=angelash@64-136-201-141-dhcp-kc.everestkc.net)
02:34:17Avebut how sucky is the mp3 decoder then
02:34:25Galoisbad
02:34:55Paul_The_NerdAve: The main thing is that the Vorbis codec already has some ARM opts built in. The MP3 does not, (or at least has less)
02:35:44Paul_The_NerdAve: CBR MP3 works up to 320, VBR tends to work at least up to an average of ~225 or so, at least. I personally haven't tested a VBR beyond that, so I can't say with any REAL certainty.
02:36:00Avewell thats something to test for sure
02:36:27Avethat almost sounds like its near unusable, I mean mp3 really needs high bitrates if you want quality
02:36:42Paul_The_NerdWell, the main thing is that there's a lot of other things that need to be done. And there's no point in knowing what the highest bitrate VBR MP3 you can play right now is, since codec optimizations are going to happen either way.
02:36:43Ave225 isnt all that uncommon at times
02:36:45Mikachuisn't 320 the max for mp3?
02:36:48Aveyeah
02:36:55Mikachuwhy would you want an average vbr of 320 then? :)
02:37:16Avebut if decoder chokes at 225 thats gonna bite someone
02:37:29Paul_The_NerdAve: 192 CBR is often considered the transparency point. And for others who want it a bit higher, LAME preset-standard or alt-preset-standard are it, and those work.
02:38:15Paul_The_NerdAve: Let me put it this way: The Ipod firwmare's decoder choked on more of my LAME encoded MP3s than Rockbox has.
02:39:49Aveouch²
02:40:12Paul_The_NerdYeah
02:40:16Avehow does it deal with more intensive aac decoding then, coupled with encryption issues
02:40:25AveI'm bogled
02:40:30*Paul_The_Nerd sighs
02:40:31Mikachuthe aac decoder is not good yet, iiuc
02:40:36Paul_The_NerdAAC will be fine eventually
02:40:38Aveno I mean apple's code
02:40:40Galoisrockbox pointedly does not handle DRM-encrypted files
02:40:54AveI dont really even care about aac
02:41:07Paul_The_NerdAve: Oh, their decoder will handle MP3s that Itunes encodes fine. But if there's a big bitrate spike in an MP3, then it has issues.
02:41:22Paul_The_NerdAve: Really, the problem isn't that the ipod can't keep up. it doesn't change the CPU speed to a higher speed early enough
02:41:32Paul_The_NerdIt's pretty well documented what exactly causes the problem
02:41:41AveI'm 100% fine with the fact that rb doesnt deal with itunes material
02:41:53Paul_The_NerdOf course, if you contact apple with "Your MP3 player doesn't play all MP3s" they try to tell you "Someone made the encoder specifically not to work with the Ipod. A lot of people hate Apple."
02:41:53TeaSeaPaul_The_Nerd: Trust apple, eh? :)
02:41:54Paul_The_NerdSeriously
02:42:16Aveeeeh no way
02:42:18Paul_The_NerdThey also accused me of pirating music when I said "I don't want to use iTunes to reencode my music."
02:42:25Paul_The_NerdThey directly accused me of it. On the phone.

02:42:49Paul_The_NerdThey said "We can only guarantee music encoded with our encoder will work." To which I responded "Then how can you sell it as an MP3 player, since MP3 is essentially a standard?"
02:43:08Paul_The_NerdTeaSea: Nope. I literally own 100% of the music on my MP3 player, either because I own the CD or it's public domain.
02:43:08GaloisI really never understood where people get the idea that apple customer support is actually good
02:43:18Aveby today's laws I'm certainly pirating music (by ripping it from my own cd's that are supposedly copy protected)
02:43:25TeaSeaPaul_The_Nerd: That's fantastic.
02:43:32GaloisPaul_The_Nerd: not to quibble, but the music industry would insist that owning the CD does not equate to owning the music
02:43:41TeaSeaI can't remember the last time I bought a CD :(
02:43:49Paul_The_NerdGalois: Okay, substitute "own" with "have a legal right to listen to"
02:43:51AveGalois: indeed
02:44:07Galoisat best, you might say apple's customer support is less atrocious than that of it's competitors
02:44:31Avehm so have you guys observed any audio anomalies in the pod output? I mean from qualitative standpoint
02:44:36Avestrange harmonics, distortions etc
02:44:46Paul_The_NerdGalois: Either way, they said "If you own the CD, re-rip it" and I said "I value quality." And they said "But you can't hear the difference." And I said "Yes, if I accept higher file sizes." And they said "So do it." And I said "Well, what about songs that I legally download, such as They Might Be Giants' free music." And they said "Umm...."
02:44:51GaloisAve: none, actually
02:44:58TeaSeaThen again there's very few songs I actually "pirate" as such.
02:45:17Galoishigher file sizes is already ridiculous. All the more reason to use rockbox.
02:45:43GaloisAve: I have some ogg files that gave playback anomalies with x86 tremor but on rockbox the anomalies went away
02:45:49Paul_The_NerdAve: There have been a few in the past, but those were always bugs and have been resolved. The audio quality, when graphed against original firmware, usually shows the two as being incredibly close (clearly there will be incredibly tiny differences in say, MP3, because we use a different version of the codec)
02:47:07Paul_The_NerdAve: And if you strive for utmost quality, there's always FLAC. Or decoded has been verified to produce bit-perfect output.
02:47:11Paul_The_NerdOur decoder
02:47:29Aveah, dang, but I'm not talking about software quality, but rather hardware quality and the analog side at that
02:47:38Avethe signal path after DAC
02:47:48Galoisthe rockbox firmware has noticeably less background noise than the original firmware
02:47:49Paul_The_NerdWell, for that you need to find reviews of the Ipod Nano
02:48:14Aveas said, I have a creative player that chirps like mad
02:48:20Paul_The_NerdChirps?
02:48:51Mikachuheh, don't compile vorbis with -Os
02:48:54Avestrange noises (at quite low volume yet easy to distinguish) that coincide with lcd-screen updates
02:49:03Paul_The_NerdOh.
02:49:11Avelike gsm phone interference
02:49:17Mikachuif i raise pitch over 110% it can't keep up, with -O2 (which it is by default) i can go to 130% with no problems
02:49:23Paul_The_NerdWell, the H120 had a problem like that with the Remote, but Rockbox managed to significantly reduce that
02:49:40Paul_The_NerdI think the nano has a very very very small tick on volume changes, but it's hard to even get that to reproduce
02:49:50Avewith closed firmware, what can you do, and if the problem is in the hardware design itself, youre SOL
02:49:54angelashesdoes rockboy come preinstalled with rockbox?

02:53:12Paul_The_NerdAve: I'd say don't worry about it.
02:53:41AveI need to get my handson actual ipod nano before I get one
02:53:49Avewith my headphones ..
02:53:58MikachuO1 looks the same as O2 nearly
02:54:03Paul_The_NerdAve: I think someone else was complaining about a thummmm sound in the right channel that may have coincided with HD spins or something, but that was also with a specific AMP and other things.
02:54:19Aveluckily nano doesnt have a hd to spin
02:54:51Paul_The_NerdIndeed
02:55:14Galoisokay, yes, there is a very light tapping when you change the volume on pause at the highest volume levels
02:55:26Galoisit's barely audible over the already low background hiss
02:55:27MikachuO3 also looks the same, so only Os is crap then
02:55:50Mikachubut no magic speed gains :)
02:55:51Galoison sealed in-ear isolation headphones :-D
02:56:19Paul_The_NerdGalois: I felt that I should offer any information I could. :) I could hear them on my cheap Koss KTXPRO1s, but I haven't ever heard it on my PX100s.
02:56:55Avesmall tapping on volume changes mean squat, my player emits this noise all the time! and the volume of it is constant regardless of the volume level, go figure
02:57:04Mikachulostlogic: actually it looks like it does the -codec buffer thing every time it restarts the current track
02:57:46AveGalois: I have in-hear headphones as well and you can hear all kinds of things even without wanting to
02:58:18 Quit Daishi ("Client exiting...")
02:58:35GaloisAve: well this tapping noise is proportional to the volume and even at the highest volumes it's barely audible on pause
02:59:29Mikachui can hear a slight tapping noise on changing volume with pause on if i go around +4 to +6
02:59:31Aveits prefectly acceptable
02:59:43Mikachuif i press my earphones against my ear
03:00
03:00:01Paul_The_NerdYeah, your volume should NEVER be above 0 anyway
03:00:23Mikachuthere might be times where it's useful
03:00:28angelasheswhat is the db when permanent hearing damage starts to happen

03:00:32Paul_The_Nerd"Oh, yes, I do want to clip my music."
03:00:38Mikachuangelashes: 130, but we are talking relative dB
03:00:39Aveipod uses dB-based volume control?
03:00:46Mikachuangelashes: or so
03:00:57Paul_The_Nerdangelashes: It depends entirely upon how long you listen to it, as well. Lower levels can cause it if exposed for long enough periods
03:01:00Mikachuangelashes: for instant damage, anything over 100 will be bad for prolonged periods iirc
03:01:00Paul_The_NerdAve: Indeed it does.
03:01:12Mikachuif you are exposed to 200dB or so i think you die instantly
03:01:13Avewith how large steps? 1dB is quite a lot
03:01:21Mikachu1dB
03:01:26Aveholy crap
03:01:34Aveah but db has more levels, right?
03:01:58Galoiswhat are you mumbling about? the ipod volume control has more volume gradations than any other mp3 player I've ever used
03:01:59Mikachui think rockbox is adjusting in the smallest steps the hardware lets it, but i haven't looked ta the code
03:02:39Paul_The_NerdAve: 1db is quite a lot until you start getting lower in volume.
03:02:56Paul_The_NerdAve: You start at 0db, and I believe it goes down to -77 or so.
03:03:07Mikachuit depends on the target
03:03:17Paul_The_NerdMikachu: Yes, but we're talking specifically about the Nano for Ave.
03:03:23Mikachuright
03:03:31Paul_The_NerdWhich actually goes up to +6, but anything above 0 can result in clipping
03:03:41MikachuHRRRMMM
03:03:41*Paul_The_Nerd wanders off
03:03:43 Part Paul_The_Nerd
03:03:51Mikachurockbox writes the config sector every time you change the volume one step?
03:03:52Aveok
03:04:04 Quit zoneout ("Leaving")
03:04:10Avewear out the flash rom in no time! aiee
03:04:26Galoiseven if it did (which I doubt), flash roms are not so stupid these days
03:04:37Aveyears ago typical flash chip could sustain about million rewrites, I suppose this number has gone up
03:04:46Galoisevery flash rom made since like 2001 implements hardware sector balancing
03:04:48Mikachuright, it does an ata_delayed_write in the end
03:04:51Mikachuso it should be alright
03:05:04Mikachuit won't actually write it to disk every time
03:05:11angelashesi wonder if the real video ipod will be flash to have a longer battery life
03:05:37Mikachusure, you can fits lots of videos on flash
03:06:03angelashesyeah and the chips are getting so freaking small and with a lot of space
03:06:24Aveoh yeah, is the clickwheelthing working on rockbox yet?
03:06:50AveI was looking around the source for wheel stuff and there is something but I cant really tell
03:06:58Galoisno clicking for the wheel
03:07:27angelashesAve: you actually use the click wheel
03:08:14Avewas that a question?
03:08:23AveI dont even own an ipod, yet
03:08:31Mikachuyes, it looks like the volume is in 1dB steps in hardware... but the code is a bit confusing
03:08:37Mikachusince it handles lots of hardware with ifdefs
03:08:42angelashesyeah i forgot the ? mark
03:09:01MikachuAve: the wheel works fine
03:09:12angelasheshe meant the click
03:09:12MikachuAve: it doesn't make beep noises in cvs yet though, but we know how to do it
03:09:23Mikachuangelashes: probably not
03:09:36Mikachuit's called the click wheel because it's a wheel but you can click play/menu/<-/-> on it too
03:09:39Avegotcha
03:09:41Mikachunot related to sounds
03:09:54angelashesi got ya now
03:10:14Mikachui hear the first ipods had separate buttons for that
03:10:24Mikachuwhich would be good for games
03:10:45angelashesyeah it would
03:10:54Mikachuwould give like 14 buttons, if you use 8 areas on the wheel
03:11:01Mikachui can't count, 13
03:11:21angelashesthe wheel didn't have buttons
03:11:28Mikachubut you can touch it
03:11:39angelashesit was a play, back, forward, menu buttons
03:11:43Mikachuwhich is my whole point
03:11:51Mikachu4 buttons + select + 8 areas on the wheel = 13
03:12:12angelashesahhhh
03:12:14angelashesi see now
03:12:26Aveis it a strain gauge or what
03:12:29Mikachuyou can get the position on the wheel when touched if you want
03:12:38angelashesok
03:12:39Mikachuit's a capacitance meter i think someone told me
03:12:43Mikachuor rather 96 of them
03:13:05Avebut if it works
03:13:07angelashesone the battery test does it tell you how much time is left on the battery
03:13:10Mikachuif you are very careful, you will see it registers without actually touching the wheel physically
03:13:14Mikachuyou can just hover above the surface
03:13:27Mikachuangelashes: look in the debug menu -> view battery
03:14:34angelashesi will look when it done charging doom was pretty popular at school today i went from 100% charge to 7% in 2 hours
03:14:52Mikachuheh
03:15:15Avedoes the usb charging require something special from usb-port, like some laptops have "high drain" ports
03:15:37Mikachui think it will charge on most ports, but it would be faster on high drain ports
03:15:47Mikachubut i think you have to boot apple for it to actually go faster
03:15:58Mikachurockbox only uses the low mode because i don't think anyone knows how to switch
03:16:03Mikachuthis is all based on hearsay
03:16:28angelashesi did mine witht he wall charged but i had to boot in apple fromware cause it would go usb then restart to rockbox and do it over and over
03:17:52Avehm so charging IS controlled by firmware to some extent
03:18:02Mikachudon't take my word for it
03:18:03Avethe wiki lets you believe its all hardware
03:18:34angelashesyeah just charge it in the apple firmware
03:18:58Mikachuwell there are those extarnal battery packs that you might want to use with rockbox

03:21:20angelashesmy friend put his nano in his pocket and the screen broke
03:22:05GaloisI suppose a broken screen is yet another reason why voice UI support in rockbox is useful....
03:22:20angelashesi need to try it
03:22:29angelashesis the voice easy to setup up
03:22:54GaloisI think so, I mean, blind people have done it ...
03:23:09angelasheswow
03:23:22AveI can imagine breaking a screen if you put it on PANTS pocket and sit on special way so it bends appropriately
03:23:29Avelarge forces present

03:27:07Galoisin my experience it works well enough that you can rely on it most of the time

03:37:14whatboutbobhey all, i have a very random question: does anyone know how to disconnect the h120 from windows XP if the little icon doesn't appear?
03:38:24whatboutbobi'm in a net cafe and i've just written a bunch of stuff to the iriver, then realised they've disabled...errr...i think its the task manager so i can't disconnect it.
03:39:00whatboutbobi'm nervous about just pulling the plug cos after writing to it cos i've heard it stuffs the hdd...and i *really* need the unit functioning this w/e...
03:39:05TeaSeawhatboutbob: Just wait a minute or two, make sure there's no data being written now
03:39:15whatboutbobTeaSea: there's not.
03:39:16TeaSeaThen it should be OK to disconnect.
03:39:38TeaSeaHonestly, all the "disconnect" button does is finish all writing and unmount the drive.
03:39:54whatboutbobTeaSea: ahh...cool...thanks mate. really appreciate it.
03:40:17TeaSeaI use linux, and there isn't any kind of "disconnect" thing, so all I do is unmount the drive and it's done.
03:40:18TeaSeawhatboutbob: OH
03:40:19TeaSeaAlso
03:40:23TeaSeaIf you're REALLY concerned
03:40:28TeaSeaIs my computer available?
03:40:32whatboutbobcan i unmount the drive from the prompt i wonder?
03:40:43TeaSeaThere should be a safely disconnect option for the iRiver thing there.
03:40:48whatboutbobscratch that...can't get to it.
03:41:24whatboutbobone more q: there's no format option in rockbox is there?
03:41:58whatboutbobif my drive's saying its full when its not, then i'll need to jump into iriver f/w format it, then reload rockbox?

03:45:10TeaSeaBut thanks for correcting me :)
03:46:04Mikachuit will slightly lower the chance of the linux usb stack getting confused

03:46:27TeaSeaMikachu: Can you describe that in a bit more detail please? :P
03:47:22Mikachuno
03:47:24Mikachu:)
03:47:31TeaSeaHaha
03:47:36Mikachui just now if i unplug it, it will sometimes fuck up and never let go of sda*
03:47:39Mikachuknow
03:47:50TeaSeaMikachu: Really? I've never encountered that before.
03:48:03TeaSeaIt happens if I just unplug without unmounting.
03:48:12TeaSeaBut if I unmount, never happens.
03:48:17Mikachui guess the chances are bigger if you plug/unplug it 40 times per day

06:56:40daurnimatoris there games etc, for rockbox?
06:56:49daurnimatorthat are platform independant
06:56:50daurnimatorsort of
06:56:52daurnimator?
06:57:06lostlogicdaurnimator: no
06:57:18lostlogicdaurnimator: anything that is to run on rockbox must be ported to rockbox
06:57:29lostlogicalthough we have a gameboy emulator to play gameboy games
06:57:35lostlogicand a pacman emulator to play pacman
06:57:39lostlogicif you have the roms for those games
06:57:59daurnimatorhmm
06:58:10daurnimatorwhat libs are ported for rockbox?
06:58:15lostlogicwhat do you mean?
06:58:50daurnimatoreg, zlib, libpng, libjpg, SDL etc
06:59:07lostlogicRockbox is a completely separate operating system, designed for MP3 players, there aren't ports of standard libraries for it... although some basic stdlib functions do have rockbox equivalents.
06:59:20lostlogicRockbox is not a posix system, so don't expect posix libraries

07:02:48pirokowow. lots of people... is it safe to ask a question here?
07:02:59lostlogicpiroko: ask, dont' ask to ask ;)
07:03:40pirokoall right :) I recently installed rockbox on my 4g grey ipod, and everything runs fine, except it will seemingly randomly shut itself down sometimes. is this normal?
07:03:46Paul_The_Nerdpiroko: If I'm here, it's always safe to ask a question. Be careful though, I answer "Can you..." questions very literally.
07:04:02daurnimator?
07:04:05Paul_The_NerdWhat condition is it in when it randomly shuts down? Is it during playback, or otherwise?
07:04:07lostlogicpiroko: stop playing, or shut down?

07:04:34pirokocpu overheat or something?
07:05:48lostlogicpiroko: sounds like a bug in cpu frequency scaling
07:06:02Paul_The_NerdMaybe.
07:06:17lostlogicPaul_The_Nerd: you heard of anything similar on 4g?
07:06:27pirokoi've watched the audio thread while playing oggs, and it usually goes for about 3 seconds at 75mhz, and then drops down to 30mhz for 3 seconds etc...

07:07:20lostlogicpiroko: yes, that's normal boosting behavior
07:07:40pirokoi figured. fill buffer, wait, fill buffer...
07:07:53lostlogicbut until recently there was a problem with boosting on 4g that had it disabled... amiconn fixed that and enabled it for the 4g, but maybe the fix is imperfect

07:31:39Paul_The_NerdIpodLinux actually has decent controls.
07:31:42speacial_edi think that may be the deciding factor in whether i should stop being lazy and use it or not
07:32:00speacial_edbecause i have alot of gameboy games which i love, but no longer a gameboy
07:32:39pirokoi had no problem with iboy
07:32:51pirokoit's all touch sensitive. not very hard to get used to.

07:50:12amiconnIf you are able to build rockbox yourself, you can make a build with cpu frequency scaling disabled (the CPU will run at 75MHz all the time then, so battery runtime will decrease) and test that
07:50:55pirokowhere is frequency scaling enabled in the source?
07:53:27amiconnfirmware/export/config-ipod4g.h Comment out the line #define HAVE_ADJUSTABLE_CPU_FREQ
07:53:38pirokowill do
07:55:03pirokoone more question: does the ipod really charge if you hold down menu when plugging it into usb?
07:55:26pirokoi read on the forums complaints that it doesn't
07:55:44amiconnIt should. My mini 2g does
07:55:48BHSPitLappythen those people weren't plugging into ports that provided power unconditionally
07:56:06BHSPitLappyI think some comps will stop giving power to a port if there isn't a recognized device there
07:56:10pirokook. i get the power icon when i plug it in, so i assume it's working
07:56:17pirokoi'll just use ac to be safe
07:56:56amiconnBut then, rockbox on ipod is far from finished (well, rockbox itself will never be 'finished') so expect quirks

08:01:28speacial_edo yeah that was one of my questions awhile ago... can we change that icon, the "Do not remove" one...
08:01:48piroko"/* Define this if the platform can charge batteries */"
08:01:55pirokohmm...
08:02:11amiconnCharging on ipod is hardware controlled
08:02:16Paul_The_Nerdspeacial_ed: The "Do not remove" one has nothing to do with Rockbox
08:03:04amiconnThis definition enables some more battery monitoring, e.g. the animated charging icon
08:03:27pirokogotcha. which doesn't matter for the ipod because battery status isn't even functional yet
08:03:52amiconnThe necessary readout functions may not be correctly implemented yet for 4g, so it's commented out
08:04:49amiconnBattery status should be functional (but the runtime will be wrong since we need data about the batteris) with 2 changes in config-ipod4g.h
08:04:55amiconnDo you wanna try them?
08:05:02pirokosure!
08:05:05pirokowhy not?
08:05:30pirokoso i'll be running rockbox with no cpu scaling and a fake battery meter. sweet :)
08:05:34amiconn(1) Find the line #define BATTERY_SCALE_FACTOR ... and change the number to 5865
08:06:05amiconn(2) (2) Uncomment the commented-out line #define CONFIG_BATTERY BATT_LIPOL1300
08:06:41pirokodone
08:07:30amiconnIt's not fake, the percentages should be almost correct. Just the runtime estimation is wrong because both the battery capacity isn't correct, and the necessary currents for the various hardware parts arent known yet
08:07:56pirokoI know it's not fake. My wording was incorrect.
08:08:26pirokoThat must be a pain to reverse engineer...
08:08:36amiconnFor my mini, both factors actually almost compensate by coincidence, so rockbox' runtime estimation iis almost correct
08:09:04pirokoi assume you compiled yours yourself? ;)
08:09:19amiconnThe corrections I told you are in cvs.

08:10:20 Quit infamis ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
08:11:02amiconnThe 5g already uses these values, and since the power management chip is the same in all ipods, it should work
08:11:13pirokoi'm compiling arm-elf-gcc now, and once it finishes i'll compile and install the new rockbox. should i still keep frequency scaling off while testing the battery meter?
08:11:27amiconnShouldn't matter
08:11:41pirokook. and can i keep my old .rockbox/ folder?
08:11:49amiconnOf course the runtime would be different, but then runtime isn't calibrated
08:11:58pirokoright
08:12:10amiconnYou can always unzip over the old .rockbox folder.
08:12:45pirokooverwrite the .rockbox/ folder from cvs, and then overwrite rockbox.ipod with my custom one?
08:13:12amiconnNo. Just build your own rockbox, then 'make zip' and unzip that to your ipod

Instead of having curves for each battery, we could define different battery types for each threshold, e.g. BATTERY_LIPOL_LOW330, defining the percentage tables in powermgmt.c. The capacity would be a separate definition
08:25:37pirokoamiconn: what format do you use for encoding your music for rockbox? it seems, to me at least, that ogg is the most efficient cpu-wise. is this true?
08:25:55amiconnIt is _currently_ true on ipod
08:26:07piroko?

08:26:38amiconnI have practically all my music in mp3 format, and won't reencode it just for the ipod
08:26:39pirokocan libogg get optimisations as well? or is it optimized already?
08:27:23amiconnTremor already has some arm optimisations, but it can probably be optimised further

08:36:09*piroko wishes he had 7 rockboxes
08:36:21pirokowho manages the ifp-790 port?
08:36:27*Paul_The_Nerd has 2 but maybe 4
08:36:43Paul_The_Nerdpiroko: The person who's done almost all the work goes by Tomal if I recall.
08:37:27pirokodo you know if he is still working on it? that's the only other mp3 player I own and I was eagerly anticipating a usable release
08:37:43gursikhpiroko: thanks, i've actually seen that article already (I wouldn't be asking random IRC channels for info if i hadn't done some research first:-)
08:38:07Paul_The_Nerdpiroko: He very recently posted to the mailing list saying progress is happening, but he generally has very little time.
08:38:14pirokogursikh: ah. sorry to give you useless info
08:38:26gursikhno, it's not like that..
08:38:45piroko:( oh well. no biggie. the ifp can play oggs just fine. i just really like rockbox :P
08:39:11gursikhbut these things are very very expensive, I'm looking to help out a non-profit group so money is a BIG issue.
08:39:56pirokoyeah, i couldn't find any free/open source ones...
08:40:32pirokojeez gcc takes forever to compile
08:40:48Paul_The_Nerdpiroko: It doesn't play above q8 very well, does it?
08:41:27pirokoi use q3
08:42:22Paul_The_NerdAh
08:42:32Paul_The_NerdWell, that's fine then
08:42:38Paul_The_NerdI remember reading other Ogg-related problems too
08:42:48Paul_The_NerdBut my memory isn't good enough to recall what they were
08:43:19Paul_The_NerdAt the moment, I believe the iFP port can play small WAV files, and that's it. Though that's a lot better than nothing.
08:44:30pirokoyeah. the ifp can't play ogg's below 96kbps
08:44:41pirokowhich sucks because 64kbps isn't bad with ogg
08:44:59pirokoand with 1gig of storage on the thing, low file size is really nice
08:45:14Paul_The_NerdI also understand that the UMS has a crippled recording feature for some reason.
08:45:20pirokoyup

09:02:20*linuxstb wonders if we deal with wraparound of USEC_TIMER correctly. It will reach 2^31 after about 36 minutes...
09:02:38Paul_The_NerdWhat's USEC_TIMER for?
09:03:49linuxstbIt's used for the short udelay() loops.
09:04:01 Quit gursikh ()
09:04:20linuxstbIt's a 32-bit microsecond timer accessed at a certain memory location.
09:05:06Paul_The_NerdCould improper handling cause freezing somehow? I know every now and then I see people mention freezes at ~35ish minutes.
09:05:27linuxstbYes, it's likely that's the cause.
09:06:56linuxstbI should probably first check if it's a signed or unsigned value - i.e. does it wrap at 2^31 or 2^32?
09:07:49Paul_The_NerdThat could indeed make a bit of a difference.
09:11:57amiconnHmm, no Linus the whole week :(
09:12:17*amiconn has some questions regarding i2c on coldfire
09:12:48amiconnLike, why do we limit ourselves to 100kHz i2c clock for the audiocodec when the uda1380 can handle 400kHz?
09:15:05amiconnlinuxstb: Did you try the battery type & scale factor changes for correct battery percentages on your 4g color?
09:15:48linuxstbIf you just mean the two changes in config-???.h, then yes.
09:15:57amiconnIt works?
09:16:24linuxstbYes, it seems OK. Those battery_bench.txt files I've posted were generated with those changes.
09:16:34amiconnThen I'll commit that for all ipods.
09:16:41linuxstbOK.

09:25:46amiconnAfaik such inline delay functions using USEC_TIMER are defined in various places.
09:26:26amiconnMaybe not all places have problems with wrap
09:26:59linuxstbThat's true - it's not just udelay() that needs fixing.

09:50:35linuxstbUSEC_TIMER appears to be unsigned - so at least it's defined correctly.
09:56:56amiconnDefining it signed should make wrap handling easier
09:57:23amiconnThat's why current_tick is signed
09:57:55amiconn(or rather, not define USEC_TIMER signed but cast to signed in calculations)

10:22:37amiconnI also observed that the tag info is delayed in the wps. Not sure whether it was like that before though on swcodec
10:23:26Slasheribefore the tag info was always instant even when skipping tracks really fast
10:23:29amiconn(The wps first shows the filename only. After ~1 sec it updates and shows the tag info.)
10:23:45Slasherithat is then normal (always been that way)
10:23:50Slasheriunless tagcache is loaded in ram
10:24:25amiconnNow it's only instant when skipping in-buffer. On startup and when skipping out-of-buffer, it's delayed
10:24:47Slasherisounds normal, because we have only filename available at that moment
10:25:03Slasheriit's better to show the filename then than freeze the wps entirely while waiting
10:25:04amiconnOn archos it's different.

10:26:25amiconnWhen starting playback on archos, tag display is instant. When skipping tracks (practically always out-of-buffer) the whole wps update is delayed until skip finishes and playback resumes from skip destination. Then, tag info is already available
10:27:02amiconnWhile wps update is delayed, the UI doesn't feel sluggish
10:27:09Slasheriah, that doesn't sound goot at all..
10:27:23Slasheribecause user receives no response when skipping many tracks in a row
10:28:34amiconn(archos) First, playback is paused, which is indicated immediately in wps ( || icon). Then the disk spins up and new data is buffered. Finally playback resumes at the skip destination and the wps is updated.
10:29:04Slasheribut user doesn't know which track has been currently selected if skipping them fast?
10:29:20Slasherion swcodec, the track number tag and filename is updated instantly
10:29:20amiconnNo
10:29:34Slasheriso user always knows what track will be played next
10:29:34amiconnI don't see a reason to update this info immediately
10:29:38 Quit VoltageX (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
10:30:09amiconnWho reads the display _during_ fast-skipping multiple tracks??
10:30:20Slasherii would find it very annoying not to know the current track.. for example, if you would like to skip the first 5 tracks, that would be very annoying
10:30:30Slasherii do that often at least :)
10:30:32amiconnIf I know I want to skip lets say 4 tracks, I just click right-rght-right-right
10:30:47 Part Paul_The_Nerd
10:30:49amiconnI don't need the display at all for that
10:31:00Slasheriif i have a long playlist, there is no need to go to the playlist viewer.. just skip multiple tracks, until the wps displays a good track
10:31:10Slasherithen stop skipping and playback starts soon
10:31:23amiconn??
10:31:34amiconnHow do you know it's a good track when skipping fast?
10:31:43Slasheriyes :) but probably people prefer different things
10:32:00Slasheriwell, there is the 0.5s delay before playback starts
10:32:11Slasheriduring that period, i can often see if it's good or not..
10:32:14Slasheriif not, just continue skipping
10:32:32amiconnReally? In 0.5sec you know whether it's a good track?
10:33:03Slasheriquite often yes, if the track is from the same album
10:33:05peturwhat if I'm looking for a particular song? I want to skip until I have it, and if possible not wait too long between each skip
10:33:20Slasheriand with tagcache, full tags are displayed immediately..
10:33:22Slasherithat makes it even easier
10:33:25amiconnpetur: Then better use the playlist viewer
10:33:33peturbah
10:33:44Slasheripetur: you don't need to wait at all while skipping
10:33:47amiconnI wouldn't want to keep looking at the display while skipping.
10:34:00amiconn...looking for a specific track
10:34:14Slasheriwith current implementation, you should be able to skip many tracks in a second and see flashes while wps updates
10:35:05Slasheriand if you are playing for example track 11. and want to skip to track number 17., you would do it easily just skipping
10:35:18Slasheribecause wps instantly shows the current entry playlist entry number
10:35:33peturand the name of the track? that's what I'd like
10:35:52amiconnEither I know how many tracks to skip, then I do click-click-click. When I don't know, I use the playlist viewer. Imho it's tedious to keep looking at the display watching for a specific track while skipping potentially a lot of tracks
10:35:56Slasheriyou see the filename, and with tagcache in ram, full tags
10:36:30Slasheriamiconn: anyway, i am quite sure some people prefers to skip tracks also this way
10:36:55Slasheriso i hope that feature will not be removed
10:37:21peturI'm sure *many* users will object if it's removed
10:37:39amiconnHmm, it's possible to confuse the tag readout completely when skipping back & forth like mad
10:38:00Slasherithen it's a bug in the engine
10:38:02crwlI, for one, like very much that WPS instantly reacts to track skipping, especially with shuffle on
10:38:41Slasheriat least my old engine didn't confuse even while skipping back & forth very fast
10:38:44amiconnIt just started playing a track, but wps kept displaying just the filename, and 0:00/0:00 playtime
10:39:01Slasherithose are probably new bugs then
10:40:25amiconnWell, I'm not that much of a skip user. If I know I don't like a certain album track, I have playlists for these albums that exclude the track. I only use skip like 'Not this track right now, please'

10:43:46infamisI'm with Slasheri
10:45:01infamisI would rather skip through tracks fast instead of searching for a particular track (especially while driving)
10:45:35amiconnWhen driving better don't look at the display at all
10:45:40infamisand sometimes, the filename of the _next_ track shows up on the WPS before the current track (which has just been skipped to) starts playing...
10:45:49infamisamiconn: exactly
10:46:11amiconnYeah, then our discussion is not an issue for you
10:46:46infamis...while driving, but otherwise, yeah

10:49:04peturwell I just tried using the playlist to skip to a specific track: what a pita... too many clicks to get it done, sorry
10:49:13amiconnHuh?
10:49:18*ashridah checks in a file with #warning teehee in it
10:49:43peturunless I missed a shortcut?
10:49:48amiconnpetur: Hold navi->down->navi->navi. Then you're in the viewer
10:50:01midkay_then down down down down down down navi..
10:50:50amiconnmidkay_: Yeah, but you see a bunch of tracknames at once, where you can select from. You don't need to stare at the display watching the tracknames flipping by
10:51:03peturyes, and those clicks come on top of the ones needed to skip itself
10:51:26midkay_amiconn, that is true, there are advantages to both ways i think..
10:51:39amiconn...and the number of keypresses in the viewer is the same as when skipping individual tracks. It may even be lower because you can hold the button to scroll, or use page scrolling
10:51:50peturif the playlist were attached to a key and come up immediately, i'd agree
10:52:01midkay_i've been known to use both, when i know the track is not too far ahead i prefer to skip skip skip.. when i think i may be needing to move far down the list, i'll use the viewer.
10:52:14peturright
10:52:54amiconnMaybe the playlist viewer would be a good option in the quickmenu in place of 'file view'
10:53:12amiconnThe latter makes no sense in the wps quickmenu
10:53:29midkay_amiconn, aha.. nice idea..
10:53:44amiconnOf course, that makes quickmenus context dependent
10:53:54midkay_amiconn, bad?

11:18:34amiconnLinusN: For 11MHz operation, it might be required to use the same method as in the remote lcd driver for better speed (precalculating port values and then just writing to the port, with interrupts disabled)
11:18:40crashdShoragan: did you reinstall rockbox, and your music?
11:18:44Shoraganwhen i mount it i can play the files from the archos

11:21:09amiconnLinusN: Because of the pipelining, it might be useful to measure i2c timing with the upcoming new bit-banging driver
11:21:46amiconnIt should also be possible to leave out the input-and-check-SCL stage for the PCF
11:22:06amiconnIf I'm reading the datasheet correctly, the PCF cannot do clock stretcing

13:13:02ashridahDomasoFan: not quite.
13:13:28ashridahDomasoFan: you need to apply a patch to an original copy of the iriver firmware so that it'll load rockbox from disk

13:46:09DomasoFanHi. I am blind and i am having problems reading the manualn of the daily build for the iriver h300. is there some documentation in another format?
13:46:55peturYou mean it is a problem because it's a pdf file?
13:48:02Myth1I need some help in developing a codec: Is ci->configure(DSP_SET_FREQUENCY, (long *)44100); correct for setting up the DSP to 44.1khz? I have some strange problems :(

13:48:09peturthere's always http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/WikiManual but I don't know how up-to-date it is
13:48:18DomasoFandon't know. most of the pdf files are readable but with this file my software has some issues.
13:49:49peturMyth1: (long*)44100 will certainly never work ;)
13:49:57ashridahheh
13:49:59ashridahyeah.
13:50:26peturunless address 44100 holds your frequency :P
13:50:41amiconnpetur: That's not quite correct
13:50:54amiconn(long*) just means the value is cast to a long pointer
13:51:02Myth1petur: Well, ci->configure(DSP_SET_SAMPLE_DEPTH, (long *)28); works fine, so I guessed it (long*)44100 works fine, too.
13:51:08ashridahDomasoFan: iirc, one of the links on http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/ has a link to a set of documentation for the blind, if you havne't read it yet. I'm not sure how useful it'll be for you tho
13:51:19CtcpIgnored 1 channel CTCP requests in 0 seconds at the last flood
13:51:19*petur is confused
13:51:20ashridahand it may be oriented towards archos users, i'm not sure
13:51:23amiconnAfaik, the second parameter of ci->configure is a void*, just to allow passing almost everything
13:51:24Myth1so is this correct or not?
13:51:50peturwhat a silly thing to do
13:52:08amiconnI would cast to a void* instead of a long* for consistency with the function declaration, but it doesn't really matter
13:52:18crashdMyth1: how's the tinysid port coming along?
13:52:19peturso sometimes it's a pointer, sometimes it's a value...
13:52:28Myth1crashd: Its nearly working
13:52:49amiconnpetur: Yes, it depends on the first parameter how the second one is interpreted
13:52:58amiconnImho it's not silly at all
13:53:00Myth1its just that my soundbuffer is only partially played (e.g. only the first 128 bytes instead of 1024)
13:53:23Myth1and I can see the timer going really fast, so i guess i did something wrong with the api
13:54:56crashdMyth1: cool :)
13:55:21crashdit's a shame no one has had time to look at the DUMB codec
13:55:25crashdbe nice to get all the other old formats running ;)

14:10:56lostlogicamiconn/Slasheri: I'm not sure where yet, but when skipping off buffer, the taginfo_ready for the new track is being set to false for some reason, causing the filename to show instead, the taginfo is still available, so I'm chasing that down.
14:11:14amiconn(which I didn't update for a day or so)
14:11:45MikachuMyth1: putting it on rockbox.org/tracker/ should get you a few testers

14:19:06Myth1sure, we'll find out ;)
14:19:08crashdheh
14:19:09pirokowhen we figure out how to use two... man that's going to be nice
14:19:49amiconnMyth1: Iriver has 140MHz coldfire. We use a maximum of 124MHz.
14:19:55Mikachuwhy don't we use 80mhz?

14:20:22daurnimatorwhy don't you dev for the gmini 402, and use one 200Mhz and a 120Mhz
14:20:23daurnimator:P
14:20:41amiconnHowever, it seems to me that the 75MHz arm is comparable to the 124MHz coldfire. DRAM on coldfire is excessively slow though
14:21:08pirokoamiconn: ... after turning off frequency scaling on my 4g, the audio thread reads that it's at 11mhz constantly...
14:21:22Mikachuthat's a fun sideeffect
14:21:23amiconnThat's just wrong display
14:21:28pirokoah ok
14:21:36pirokoit's really hauling ass then? ;)
14:21:37Mikachuyou can change the frequency define in the .h file in firmware/export if you want
14:21:40amiconnIt really runs at a constant 75MHz w/o scaling
14:22:02pirokoi'll run it for about an hour to see if I get the random reboot of annoyance
14:22:44lostlogicdaurnimator: since when is 80mhz slow!?
14:23:17daurnimatorsince bout 2000
14:23:48pirokoit's about the same speed as my laptop
14:23:55piroko486DX/2
14:23:59piroko:D
14:25:31daurnimatori doubt an ipod can run - eg, windows 95 @ the speed of a 486, if at all
14:25:54pirokoiWin95!
14:26:00Mikachufor one thing windows is only for x86 arch
14:26:04pirokoyeah
14:26:12daurnimatorwindows ce then
14:26:12pirokoi run dos or linux on mine :P
14:26:35amiconnMikachu: For one thing this isn't entirely true. WinNT 4 was for x86, ppc, alpha and mips (iirc)
14:26:41pirokowe could steal the source from microsoft and port it
14:26:46Mikachu95 then
14:26:58Mikachui didn't know that though
14:28:08amiconnNot sure about the mips part. but alpha I know for sure. Vobis (a german PC distributor) even sold alpha-PCs back then
14:28:16Avemh I recall my p54 100MHz consuming something like 60% while decoding mp3, but this was the early days
14:28:35Avehow does arm compare to pentium of those days
14:28:51crashdlike for like comparisons dont really work across architectures
14:29:06ashridahparticularly since older pentiums were CISC and arm is RISC, from memory
14:29:48Avemakes sense
14:30:03Mikachuyou can still comparing cpu usage at a particular task
14:30:15Mikachuit doesn't tell you much about how they would do on other tasks though
14:30:19slartiashridah: you can arguably still call x86 a cisc arch
14:30:44Mikachuit certainly hasn't got less instructions since then :)
14:30:46ashridahslarti: well, nowadays it's implemented on top of RISC, from memory
14:31:05slartisort of. that transmeta chip definitely was wasn't it?

14:48:49LinusNlostlogic: ok, so you need a signalling mechanism?
14:49:34amiconnSomeone also needs to check which thread(s) never sleep on swcodec, and fix that

14:51:25MikachuMyth1: is there any particular reason you won't put a diff on the tracker?

15:03:16mikolasok
15:03:18Hansmaulwurfmidkay: on my H120 it is too
15:03:34peturPuGz_: once you have RB installed it's just a matter of copying over the new version

15:06:22Hansmaulwurfuh shit, december build was the old sound volume system. shit
15:06:25LinusNlostlogic: i know that you haven't worked on the codecs, but i'm trying to get a grip on the battery consumption
15:06:56lostlogicLinusN: come to think of it, they do sleep(1) if they hit a full pcmbuffer situation.
15:07:06LinusNi wonder if it might be better if the codecs slept once in a while instead of constantly working
15:07:43lostlogicLinusN: yeah, I see what you're saying, when they hit that full pcmbuffer situation, they can sleep for pcmbuflength - (watermark) before they need to be awake again.
15:07:44LinusNlostlogic: not mpa.c
15:07:56 Quit fiftyfour123 (Client Quit)
15:08:05lostlogicLinusN: the sleep happens in the callback playback.c:codec_pcmbuf_insert_split_callback
15:08:25LinusNaha
15:08:58LinusNthe current approach attempts to decode at all times, and boosts if necessary
15:09:17lostlogicLinusN: I think that should sleep for pcmbuf_seconds - watermark_seconds, if you agree, I'll make it so and we can test
15:09:24LinusNi wonder what would happen if it instead slept and always boosted during decoding
15:10:12amiconnLinusN: On iriver, i2c communication with the PCF is interrupt-protected anyway, correct?
15:10:27LinusNyes
15:10:56amiconnThen we could make the interrupt disable happen in i
15:11:16amiconnpcf50606_i2c_start(), and the enable in pcf50606_i2c_stop(), and use precalculated port values
15:11:43amiconn...in conjunction with move.l, instead of the atomic instrcutions
15:11:51LinusNamiconn: most of the pcf comm is done in an interrupt, but it can still be interrupted by higher levels (audio)
15:11:59amiconnoh
15:12:18LinusNi don't think that's critical, however
15:12:39*linuxstb listens to a SID track on an h140...
15:12:45lostlogicLinusN: this will eat crossfade.
15:12:52amiconnWell, nothing else must modify gpio if we don't use the atomic instructions

15:13:17LinusNlostlogic: huh?
15:13:33lostlogicLinusN: crossfade depends on the pcm buffer having crossfadeoutsecs of data in it when the crossfade is initiated.
15:13:52LinusNlostlogic: do we know when that happens?
15:13:55amiconnBut with the atomic instructions, even i2c_outb (the simplest one) is way slower than 400kHz at 11MHz cpu clock
15:13:56 Nick Myth1^AWAY is now known as Myth1 (n=Muesli24@pD95FE38B.dip.t-dialin.net)
15:14:16lostlogicLinusN: no, we don't have "I'm 30 seconds from the end of the track, start filling up the buffer" detection
15:14:26LinusNamiconn: we rarely run at 11mhz
15:14:30Myth1linuxstb: Is it working on h140?
15:14:52lostlogicLinusN: we can still have it sleep, but I fear this might be another place that crossfade users take a hit, because it won't be able tos leep as long.
15:14:59amiconnLinusN: Rarely, but we do (radio screen). Maybe that'll have to go anyway, if recording from radio gets added
15:15:18lostlogiclemme just see how it behaves w/o crossfade first.
15:16:10linuxstbMyth1: Yes, but slowly....
15:16:13amiconnI'd expect sleeping at high clock will drain more battery than our current back & forth switching
15:16:23Myth1linuxstb: So it hangs?
15:16:52linuxstbNo, it works. It just plays about a second of music, then pauses for about 4-5 seconds, then plays another second....

15:26:53lostlogicit seems not to be worth it, because the boost ratio ends up being much higher, and all we get is that the codec thread sleeps for a short while instead of trying to decode at low freq for a longer while.
15:27:05LinusNfigures
15:27:26lostlogicbut I haven't actually compared battery life, just looked at the debug screen
15:27:44amiconnLinusN: Perhaps something to measure:

15:28:30pirokono backlight, with usb adapter plugged into the wall and decoding, yes
15:28:38lostlogicpiroko: so far we only draw 100mA from the USB mode chargers, because we don't know how to adjust it.
15:28:42amiconnAt both 45 and 124MHz, measure the current draw with a tiny loop, and with the cpu sent to sleep (both with interrupts disabled)
15:28:44daurnimatorhey devs: how do you implement codecs into rockbox?

15:31:33linuxstbMyth1: We have 48KB of IRAM available for a codec. I'll send you my patch in a few minutes.
15:32:19Myth1linuxstb: Did your patch improve performance? How fast is it now?
15:32:28lostlogicSlasheri: do { queue_wait(&codec_callback_queue, &ev); } while (ev.id != Q_CODEC_REQUEST_COMPLETE);
15:32:47lostlogicseem right?
15:32:50Myth1linuxstb: You can also try to outcomment the filter calculation, this should speed things up
15:32:57Slasherilostlogic: yes, and if the usb events happens in middle between that, it will get lost
15:32:58lostlogicor do I hafta _do_ something if it's SYS_USB?
15:33:10lostlogicah, I hafta do something.
15:33:14Slasheriso you need to check for the SYS_USB_CONNECTED event

15:35:01Slasheriin fact i don't think the callback_queue is really worth the problems
15:35:26lostlogichave a better solution? those calls must be synchronized.
15:36:10 Join Membrillo [0] (n=sam_kill@58.164.32.95)
15:36:19Slasherihmm, sounds bad..
15:37:01lostlogicagain, if you have a better solution, I'd love to hear it, but if the codec requests a new track, the audio thread must process that request to move the buffer along, and the codec thread must not resume decoding until that is done.
15:37:04pirokois there a reason why you wouldn't crank up the anti-skip buffer to something really high? crossfade doesn't work with it set at 5 seconds but does at 3 minutes.
15:37:14Membrilloare the radio presets stored in a file somewhere. For example when i update a build what file do i delete so my presets arent overwritten?
15:37:19pirokocrap gotta go. be back later
15:37:52bluebrotherMembrillo: no. The presets file isn't in the distribution.
15:38:03Membrillook nice
15:38:12Slasherilostlogic: well, i haven't looked into the new code yet enough to be able to recommend anything. but that's is definately a new problem in the code then

15:38:36lostlogicyeah, my mutex solution that nobody liked _worked_ which the new solution causes USB to not work, so...
15:38:40lostlogicLinusN: need ideas.
15:38:56amiconnI think we should have 2 types of queues
15:39:08luckz_I think my X5 has been playing all night. gnah.
15:39:13amiconnToday, all queues are publicly know, so receive broadcast events.
15:39:18amiconn*known
15:39:32LinusNlostlogic: handlilng usb isn't that hard
15:39:34amiconnThere should be the possibility to have 'private' queues
15:39:47LinusNamiconn: yes, why not?

15:39:57luckzwoe me.
15:40:09lostlogicHmm... I guess you're right, I can just return false if it's USB.
15:40:53linuxstbMyth1^AWAY: I've now put almost the entire codec in IRAM (the main thing missing is the 64KB memory buffer). I think it's now about 50% realtime - i.e. the spurts of music are about the same length as the spurts of silence.
15:40:55Slasheriand then you need to activate the usb mode.. but i think you can do that in the audio thread for both queues at once
15:41:25Membrillowhat other parts of the builds would people want to be excluded when updating. Apart from.... viewers.config, WPS files and .rock files
15:41:28LinusNamiconn, lostlogic : you can create a private queue by calling queue_clear() instead of queue_init()
15:42:49lostlogicis it correct that every thread must acknowledge USB?
15:43:07lostlogicthen this does need to be a public queue, and I just need to return correctly on that event.
15:43:18Slasherilostlogic: no, but every queue initialized with queue_init must respond to it
15:43:29amiconnThe USB thread expects as many acks as there are public queues
15:43:52LinusNlostlogic: as amiconn said, it is about the queues, not the threads

15:50:25lostlogichmm, and if my queue acks before the thread actually becomes idle?
15:50:39obois it okay for a new thread to do while(1)..queue_wait..switch...yield() ?? or will that eat too much cpu time?

15:52:33lostlogicah, well this thread never does that, so I can just usb_acknowledge() and let the _other_ thread wait for disconnect?
15:52:40lostlogicer not other thread
15:52:44lostlogicother queue
15:52:46LinusNobo: that was for lostlogic
15:53:03LinusNobo: yes, that is perfectly ok, since queue_wait() yields
15:53:33oboLinusN: okay, thanks
15:53:36LinusNlostlogic: or perhaps use my queue_clear() trick to create a private queue

16:50:26Myth1linuxstb: Oops, did I forgot something?
16:50:41linuxstbYes - mostly the "double-declaration" of the functions.
16:51:22linuxstbAFAIK, the ICODE_ATTR can only be used in a prototype, not in the declaration of the function itself.
16:51:30Myth1sorry, I've never worked with diff before
16:51:42Hansmaulwurfhow can i do a battery benchmark with an old build which doesnt include the plugin? stop the time with a clock?
16:51:54linuxstbYou just needed to type "patch -p0 < sid_iram.diff" against your original file, and that would have applied the patch.
16:52:16Myth1oh, sorry
16:52:31Myth1I will adjust that, you are right, I missed that from your diff

17:40:34lostlogicCaptain_Slender: ask questions, we try to answer, especially if they are non-obvious from the documents on the website.
17:41:21Captain_SlenderWell, first off, does it come in the latest (well, yesterdays) version of RockBox for the iPod 5g?
17:41:45Captain_Slender(And it's just hidden from my stupid eyes... >_>)
17:42:34Captain_SlenderI only got onto this whole Rockbox thing yesterday, and i'm pretty impressed if this Rockboy plugin would actually work.
17:42:59lostlogicCaptain_Slender: it is there, and is a viewer for gameboy roms
17:43:12lostlogicso you must install a rom and then 'open it with' rockboy
17:43:52Captain_SlenderLike, just playing a .rom file on the iPod somewhere, and opening it with the plugin?
17:44:00Moosyep
17:44:21lostlogic(not that I've ever tried the plugin myself, but that's what I hear)
17:45:09MoosI don't remenber neither if ipod 5g reported Rockboy working

17:52:40pirokook i'm back and instead of crashing, my ipod is stuck in a play-pause-stop really-quickly-loop
17:53:30lostlogicpiroko: that's a playback bug.
17:53:37lostlogicwhich I'm hunting.... and I ahte.
17:54:44pirokoi started messing with it and it's playing fine again without a reboot :)
17:54:46crashdMyth1, linuxstb: still getting a codec failure on sid ;\
17:54:57pirokolostlogic: i'm happy you know about it though
17:55:14pirokoand it didn't crash, so the random reboot/crash/freeze is most likely a scaling issue
17:55:34lostlogicpiroko: score one for my good guess!

17:57:32pirokolostlogic: yeah, now the question is, does it only happen on the 4g and how/how often/where/when does it happen?
17:58:17KyomiAlright... either there is something horribly wrong with the battery usage.. or my player's battery has crapped out
17:58:31KyomiI charged it fully last night using the original firmware's way
17:58:31lostlogicpiroko: probably only the 4g, because only the 4g needed the workaround that amiconn mentioned to make scaling work in the first place, and w/o the workaround, the 4g would crash immediately
17:58:42KyomiIts supposed to last around 7-8 hours
17:58:45lostlogicKyomi: what device?
17:58:45KyomiIt lasted barely 4

18:00:05lostlogicKyomi: do you use crossfade? do you use the eq? do you use the peakmeter on your wps?
18:00:10lostlogicall of those features reduce battery life.
18:00:15KyomiNo, no and no
18:00:19Moosis EQ on, is crossfeed ON, is peakmeter ON...

18:01:41KyomiAny suggestions?
18:01:51pirokolostlogic: is there anything i can do to give you a debug output or a crash log or something for that scaling bug?
18:02:04Moos@piroko even
18:02:05pirokoit happens quite frequently. it wouldn't be hard to reproduce
18:03:01crashdoohm sid works now

18:03:36pirokodid amiconn make the workaround or just mention it?

18:19:37goffa_So to start, iTunes sucked in 2003? The only article the submitter had going to be 3 yrs old this year. The other site really doesn't say anything except, I hate paying money for music. So great examples about the lack of iTunes.
18:19:41lostlogicgoffa_: yes, at the first full rebuffer, it eats itself
18:19:41goffa_Really, if you want to advertise the firmware that might void your warranty (not went EULA reading yet), for some added features, then go ahead. I honestly think OGG audio sounds HORRID. But please do not post your own little attack with the article.

19:08:56goffa_yeah... it may cause me to upgrade to an 80gb drive when it comes out
19:09:05goffa_but that isn't the fault of rockbox
19:09:13Ribsdoes it not use the h/w accelration in the iPod then?
19:09:25lostlogicipod doesn't use hardware decoding afaik
19:09:41pirokono, it doesn't
19:09:42lostlogicat least part of the problem on iopd is the fact that we only use oe of the two CPU cores so far.

19:33:18Paul_The_NerdIn which case there's a few things. One: Our emulator was developed independently from theirs, so not all (if any) display code is necessarily interchangeable.

20:25:28thouters_hi, I was wondering if people were working on raw video playback (like ipodlinux has)
20:25:51Ribsokay, for the iPod, do I need to copy the .ratbox folder across as well, or just the .bin file?
20:26:03Ribsermm... the .ipod file, I mean :>
20:27:56Paul_The_Nerdwarthawg: Maaaaybe. But I don't think Rockbox has any way of knowing if the original is there. If you merge with an IPL firmware, Rockbox then loads the IPL loader in that situation. :)
20:28:04Paul_The_Nerdthouters_: Not really, no.
20:28:22Paul_The_NerdRibs: There's not a .bin file... or a .ratbox folder... I'm confused.
20:28:27Paul_The_NerdRibs: Oh, .ipod

21:56:29midkayIf I was going to go through the hassle and risk of an Ipod firmware upgrade, I'd greatly prefer the freedom and flexibility of something like Ipod Linux [ipodlinux.org], rather than just a multi-codec jukebox platform.
21:57:04Ribsmidkay: It's not a risk
21:57:07midkay'the hassle of upgrading', hm. it's a one-time thing.. and clearly he uses his iPod for the "Extras" menu.
21:57:13midkayi didn't say it was, that's a comment from the article

21:58:14midkayPaul_The_Nerd, trueness..
21:58:34RibsI must confess, I thought it was a risk
21:58:37Paul_The_Nerdmidkay: The phrase "Firmware upgrade" implies risk in any situation. I'd say in reality for Ipod it's actually a Software Upgrade.
21:58:44Ribswhen I first saw that article on ./, I was like "no way"
21:59:01Galoisdidn't one person brick their nano while instaling rockbox
21:59:14midkayPaul_The_Nerd, yeah.. foolproofing it seems to be getting common.

21:59:37brendan_Hi, how do i know when the tagcache is done generating?
21:59:42AveGalois: how did he do that?
21:59:54midkayGalois, it's not really possible unless they simply can't follow instructions (putting it in disk mode)..
22:00
22:00:02Paul_The_NerdGalois: One person had a hardware failure on his Nano that happened to occur at the same time as installing linux. I'm about 99.98% positive it was just bad luck
22:00:11GaloisAve: I don't know, but it took some skill as I recall
22:00:53Paul_The_NerdAll installing Linux or Rockbox does is replace data on the disk. No firmware flashing is done, so you can't *really* damage the Ipod unless something outside of the install process goes wrong at the same time.
22:01:01GaloisPaul_The_Nerd: oh, it was linux, not rockbox? *phew*
22:01:04*Galois runs
22:01:36scottderEvenin Rockboxers
22:02:07midkayPaul_The_Nerd, is the rockbox bootloader not flashed?
22:02:17midkayby the ipod itself..
22:02:17infamisafternoon
22:02:41Paul_The_Nerdmidkay: Nope.
22:02:45midkayhow's it work, then?
22:02:48Aveit seems that the worst that can happen is you nuke your hd-contents, but how many people have scsi-disks in their desktop computers?
22:03:03Aveand if you do, I bet you are savvy enough not to overwrite your drive..
22:03:04Paul_The_Nerdmidkay: The ipod has its own bootloader, that reads from a certain location on the HD. We just make sure our code is there instead of theirs. Then their bootloader loads ours.
22:03:25Avethen theres serial ata, but I digress
22:03:33*lostlogic abuses Galois' server.
22:03:48mikolaswhat was this stuff about tinysid port? is it going to be committed any time soon?
22:04:01Aveooh, sid player
22:04:06lostlogicmikolas: I think he's submitting it to the patch tracker, probably not in CVS until after 3.0
22:04:09lostlogic2 wks +
22:04:22midkayPaul_The_Nerd, how can the first-time rockbox bootloader installation's apple-logo-and-progress-bar "wait" procedure (for ~10 seconds) be explained, then?
22:04:48mikolasi actually tried to port older libsidplay, but porting from c++ to c was a pain in the butt so i eventually gave up :-)
22:04:56brendan_are there pans for a video player for ipos(color/photo)?
22:06:23Paul_The_Nerdmidkay: Umm... that's an Apple software thing that occurs the first time you boot your Ipod I believe. Since you've rewritten your bootpartition, sometimes it thinks it's a new Ipod, I believe.
22:06:31 Quit MrStaticVoid ("leaving")
22:07:04midkayPaul_The_Nerd, it happens every time you upgrade your firmware.. (apple software, rockbox. and in all probability iPL).
22:07:19midkayi've done it about 50 times with the apple updater.
22:07:50Galoislostlogic: oh, and one more thing, ccache is already installed
22:08:40Paul_The_Nerdmidkay: I haven't noticed it on my Nano. But seriously, flash memory isn't written to. Try reformatting your whole Ipod disk, and you'll find that the rockbox bootloader really is gone, without any extra steps
22:08:48lostlogicGalois: ok, I'm using script to record my session so you can audit what I do, and so that I can make a script ofr other people to install build servers automagically
22:09:24midkayPaul_The_Nerd, "flash memory isn't written to" - you mean because it isn't or because it can't be?
22:09:37Paul_The_Nerdmidkay: Now *that* question I can't answer. :)
22:09:49infamisdoes anyone use an IDE for rb-devel? I need some sort of quick navigation to locate where certain vars/defines are defined
22:09:50midkayPaul_The_Nerd, what did you mean by it? :)
22:10:02lostlogicinfamis: use ctags
22:10:18infamiscool, I'll check it out
22:10:37lostlogicI use vim + ctags to quickly jump to functions / variables
22:10:44Paul_The_Nerdmidkay: It isn't written to because there's no reason to write to it. The handy built in bootloader will do what we ask of it, and as far as I know the only thing actually ROM or Flash is the Emergency Disk Mode, which is why you can get to it no matter what: No matter how badly you bork your disk, it's in flash to bail you out.
22:11:05midkayPaul_The_Nerd, right, gotcha..
22:11:21midkayi'm now curious as to what that initializing thing is, though :)
22:11:27Paul_The_NerdI am too honestly

22:11:30Paul_The_NerdI've never seen it.
22:11:35Paul_The_NerdWell, not "never" but only like, once or twice
22:11:59midkayprobably doesn't happen on nanos, or very quickly, due to the usage of flash memory..
22:12:29Paul_The_NerdIt's *probably* the Apple_OS portion of it writing your settings/etc to the boot partition.
22:12:38Paul_The_NerdAnd since the flash memory has no spinup, it'd be nearly instant.
22:12:51midkayit probably just runs a check, notices something's changed, and verifies that it will work right.. i think that's the point at which you get the exclamation mark error, maybe if the data fails the check..
22:12:55Paul_The_NerdAaah
22:12:58Paul_The_NerdProbably
22:13:04Paul_The_NerdI know there's a string in there that has to be there.

22:13:18midkayhaha.
22:13:33midkay"no stop sign?! abort! exclamationPointError()!!!" :)
22:13:35Paul_The_NerdSeriously. I think it's in the Apple_OS.bin file, if you open it in a hex editor

22:37:50kkurbjunlostlogic, another question, if I'm doing this right, I added $(PROFILE_OPTS) to /apps/plugins/Makefile in the CFLAGS section and now all the plugins error out.. soom uses the timer and the audio callback
22:38:22infamisgoffa_: peace
22:38:23kkurbjunsoom = doom
22:38:31lostlogickkurbjun: I honestly never tested profiling plugins, for codecs, I was just enabling it for one codec at a time
22:39:35lostlogickkurbjun: profiling uses the timer...
22:39:38lostlogicthat's probably what happens.
22:40:39kkurbjunoh, I'll have to see if I can avoid using the timer then to profile.. I can't figure out why the plugins would be erroring with -finstrument though..
22:41:19lostlogickkurbjun: you can get function call counts obviously without the timer... and maybe get some less accurate timing using the tick instead of a 1000hz tick.
22:42:09kkurbjunlostlogic, there's code in doom to not use the timer so I'll just use that and see if it works

23:11:22filoktetesI have the daily build. Do you recomend something else?
23:11:27infamis...or if he was trying to build it his-self
23:11:47midkay_cvs builds are good, they are rebuilt every change, so you'll get new features/fixes slightly earlier..
23:11:54peturfiloktetes: use the bleeding edge build
23:11:55warthawgdon't touch me or you might get the CAPZLOQUE TEKNIQUE
23:12:08filoktetesThanks :)
23:12:43infamisoops I confused 'daily build' with 'daily source'

23:13:12[g2-lap]warthawg cool about the building, not cool about the virus
23:13:22[g2-lap]is the source for the bootloader around ?
23:13:35infamisyea it's in bootloader/main.c
23:13:51warthawg[g2-lap], its that proof of concept thing thats been all the news lately
23:14:01[g2-lap]neat.
23:14:16[g2-lap]well I've kinda been off in my own embedded world
23:14:38warthawgif i knew much about mmap and how it changed in the 2.6.16 or thereabouts kernel, i might be able to tell why it doesnt work on the new kernels, but did before then
23:14:41[g2-lap]it seems like there's been trendous progress since last I checked
23:15:07[g2-lap]I'm running 2.6.16 on XScale
23:15:33warthawgXScale?
23:15:33crashdevening all
23:15:51infamisafternoon crashd
23:16:03warthawgis that like a distro for system 390?
23:16:03[g2-lap]armv5t is strongarm plus some extras iirc
23:16:31[g2-lap]the nanos are arm920t based right ? armv4t

23:17:16mirakkkurbjun: yes, for xvid and mpeg2
23:17:36mirakkkurbjun: problem is they are probably too big
23:17:38malakaiDoes/Has anyone here use IDA Pro against code compiled for a ARM920T?
23:17:40Mikachulostlogic: i haven't gotten around to enabling frequency scaling yet
23:17:45warthawg[g2-lap], i don't know, i only know i needed the arm-elf cross compiler :)
23:17:48[g2-lap]XScale is the arch like arm, mk68
23:17:56warthawgaha, thanks
23:17:57malakaiI think I have an issue dissasembling the thumb instructions in IDA pro

23:19:24lostlogicoh, I didn't remember asking.
23:19:28lostlogicMikachu: how's playback?
23:19:34Mikachu<lostlogic> Mikachu: you still having the Cpu stay boosted on stop?
23:19:34[g2-lap]linuxstb are the JTAG pins known or accessible ?

23:19:49Mikachuwell, i listened on the train earlier without fiddling and that worked fine
23:19:49linuxstbangelashes: http://www.rockbox.org/cvs.shtml - "CVS build" is also known as "Bleeding edge build"
23:20:05MoosMikachu: that was fixed
23:20:10Myth1crashd: I added some improvements, though I don't know how effective they are

23:20:37MoosMikachu: cpu-boost thing when playback at stop
23:20:41lostlogicMikachu: which you never had any way :-P
23:20:47crashdit was working 'fairly' well on 5g earlier, it dropped a bit
23:20:50scottderI think I asked this before, but have forgotten the answer, is there a way in a WPS to display Replaygain?
23:20:53crashdbut for some songs it didnt drop at all

23:21:32MoosMyth1: there will be one Rockbox question:
23:22:04MoosIs this new codec can be one exception during this feature freeze?
23:22:12Moosor wait for post 3.0
23:22:45crashdMyth1: you reckon you can get protracker running with similar performance on targets, then? ;)
23:22:48Moosincluding it in 3.0 can be good get my vote : )
23:23:01scottderwhat codec?
23:23:09Moossid one

23:24:30infamisanyone use an IDE for rockbox source on cygwin?

23:27:17amiconnmirak: The jpeg viewer doesn't use assembler in the idct. It uses a very tiny assembler snippet for range-limiting to 0..255, otherwise it's just optimised C
23:27:39infamisI just need quick symbol location & file browsing
23:27:46infamis*source browsing
23:28:39amiconnBut it uses a technique that the iriver jpeg viewer probably doesn't use: For displaying the scaled-down versions, it uses a downscaling idct instead of first decoding full-res, then resizing. Saves both RAM and CPU time

23:43:16amiconnYou probably mean the EMAC unit. No, gcc has no idea about emac

23:44:57brendan_when i view a JPEG, or use doom the screen seems to be limited to 16 colors(with really bad dithering), i'm using an ipod photo, is the expected?
23:45:52Paul_The_NerdThat is strange. For most people you get the full 16-bit color.
23:46:26brendan_yea, have notives a fiew other bugs as well
23:47:02brendan_Paul_The_Nerd, is there a setting or something to enable the extra colors?
23:47:23scottderWow rockbox made slashdot
23:47:26Paul_The_Nerdbrendan_: No, it's always in 16-bit color. Can you take a screendump?

23:54:08Paul_The_Nerdpiroko: Are you having problems with a bleeding edge build?
23:54:10lostlogicanyone know if there are codecs that are inclined to seek to the very end of a file as part of their codec startup?
23:54:30pirokoi haven't tried it yet. I just read this: Work around the bug with buffer wrapping. Serious performance penalty, and a lot of buffering is discarded to achieve this, but it doesn't crash while I find the real cause.
23:54:46brendan_Paul_The_Nerd, the screendump looks fine
23:54:57infamis"but it doesn't crash" would mean it would be usable ...?
23:55:54brendan_Paul_The_Nerd, i used on the of the daily snapshots, should i have used the stable release?
23:56:40pirokoi assume it would be to slow or something, from "serious performance penalty"
23:56:47pirokohaven't tried it yet
23:56:54pirokobut the playback bug is fixed for now?
23:57:22infamiswell, I just tried a sim build of the x5 with the latest cvs...playback has improved
