| 00:01:31 | TeaSea | It's strange, i've sort of stopped going out a lot. |

| 00:02:31 | crashd | sure have, many times |
| 00:02:41 | TeaSea | Awesome. |
| 00:02:41 | TeaSea | When abouts? |
| 00:02:41 | crashd | in fact, i might be up there weekend may 6th for my birthday |
| 00:02:49 | crashd | i used to go a lot when i lived in barrow, nearest decent gig venue |

| 00:06:45 | brendan_ | Paul_The_Nerd, yep |
| 00:07:10 | Paul_The_Nerd | brendan_: Okay, could you do one last thing then? Boot into the Apple firmware, and use iTunes to put a photo on your player, and see how that photo looks in the Apple firmware. |
| 00:07:50 | brendan_ | Paul_The_Nerd, i can't seem to boot it into the apple firmware:-p |
| 00:08:00 | brendan_ | Paul_The_Nerd, mayby i'm just using the wrong key, but i push menu and nothing happens |

| 00:15:15 | Paul_The_Nerd | brendan_: Ah. Hm. Well, if you say it looks definitely 16-bit in the retail OS, I have to admit I'm confused. I would say delete rockbox.ipod and the .rockbox folder, put a new one on, and then, as soon as you turn on your iPod, immediately flip the hold switch to On to clear settings. |

| 00:22:33 | infamis | haven't messed with any buffer sizes |
| 00:23:01 | lostlogic | infamis: so you seek forward far and it changes tracks instead of seeking to the right place? even if you don't seek to very near the end fo the track? |

| 00:25:34 | Paul_The_Nerd | brendan_: Nothing that I personally could do anything with. I basically serve as a first line of technical support. I'd almost hazard that something's gone wrong with your bootloader, though I can't imagine what. |
| 00:25:42 | Paul_The_Nerd | Polka64: Is it a 1st or 2nd generation then? |
| 00:25:47 | Poka64 | 1st |

| 00:26:25 | etherz | quick question, audio playback on ipods is now mutifomat with this firmware |
| 00:26:34 | Paul_The_Nerd | We'll get to it, but none of the devs here has a 1st gen Mini. |
| 00:26:47 | brendan_ | crashd, its the first time i installed rockbox, so i'm not sure |
| 00:26:47 | etherz | any chance video will be multi format playback on the ipod video with this firmware in the future? |
| 00:26:51 | Paul_The_Nerd | etherz: Technically it's multiformat with the default firmware. But we do support MORE formats than them. |
| 00:26:51 | crashd | brendan_: ah, ok |
| 00:27:04 | crashd | brendan_: so, you're sure you got the right bootloader AND build from the rockbox website? |
| 00:27:04 | Paul_The_Nerd | etherz: We don't support video at all though, and it's not likely to happen particularly soon. |

| 00:58:31 | Paul_The_Nerd | nle: Unfortunately that means nobody's donated one for us yet. Until someone does you'll either need to go without rockbox, or get access to a Windows machine. If you do get access to a windows machine, we'd of course appreciate a donation of the MBR. ;-) |

| 01:06:02 | Paul_The_Nerd | Of course you'd do this after converting to fat32, but *before* installing rockbox |

| 01:25:28 | Paul_The_Nerd | Wait a second, NOW Jewels gets attention as a copyright violation? And aren't there plenty of open source implementations of it that don't get flak? |
| 01:26:28 | bluebrother | Paul_The_Nerd: have you read my mail or has someone else gotten also one? |
| 01:26:44 | Paul_The_Nerd | Just read the email |
| 01:27:02 | Mikachu | didn't you rename it and everything? |
| 01:27:14 | Mikachu | unless they have a patent there's pretty much nothing they can do i think |
| 01:27:24 | bluebrother | I really don't understand their point. |
| 01:28:07 | Mikachu | you can give them a % of rockbox winnings from sales |
| 01:28:13 | Mikachu | but don't tell them that's 0 |
| 01:28:31 | bluebrother | it was renemed to Jewels from Bejeweled. Due to copyright issues, but until it popped out as plugin for rockbox I hadn't heard of the game at all. |

| 01:28:54 | bluebrother | damn, it in the middle of the night and I need to react to something like this. |
| 01:29:16 | webguest54 | Whats the program for the ipod that plays my itunes music on rockbox (and it shows the band name) |
| 01:29:31 | Paul_The_Nerd | Well, I mean isn't all our art from http://sebdelestaing.free.fr/gweled/ ? Why is that still around? |
| 01:29:37 | webguest54 | Whats the program for the ipod that plays my itunes music on rockbox (and it shows the band name) |
| 01:29:46 | RotAtoR | Paul_The_Nerd: yes all the art is from there |
| 01:29:51 | bluebrother | what do you mean by "itunes music"? |
| 01:29:57 | Paul_The_Nerd | webguest54: No need to repeat yourself like that. Do you mean TagCache? |
| 01:30:02 | RotAtoR | just read the email, very strange |
| 01:30:02 | webguest54 | Well u can acess your itunes music |
| 01:30:09 | webguest54 | I believe thats it |
| 01:30:19 | bluebrother | what is "itunes music"? |
| 01:30:20 | Mikachu | that would be rockbox then |
| 01:30:20 | webguest54 | It shows the band and song names and everything s on order |
| 01:30:33 | webguest54 | Im using rockbox |
| 01:30:36 | Mikachu | then you're all set |
| 01:30:37 | bluebrother | ah. You mean song database? |
| 01:30:40 | webguest54 | SO i have to copy allll my music to my ipod again? |
| 01:30:42 | webguest54 | Yeahh |
| 01:30:49 | Shonky | Does Daniel Sternberg visit here? I'd like to ask hima couple of questions. |

| 01:31:52 | Paul_The_Nerd | webguest54: There's a wiki page for it, entitled TagCache. |
| 01:31:52 | bluebrother | tagcache builds a database from all your music's metadata. |

| 01:40:59 | webguest69 | Are they updating ipod video rockbox alot? |
| 01:41:17 | Paul_The_Nerd | They update rockbox alot, yes |
| 01:41:28 | bluebrother | I'd say daily ;-) |
| 01:41:36 | bluebrother | or, even more often. |
| 01:41:42 | Paul_The_Nerd | Depends on the time period |
| 01:41:54 | Paul_The_Nerd | Right now, LOTS because Lostlogic is kinda insane like that |
| 01:41:55 | Shonky | scottder: There are no badgers here as I just found out. |
| 01:42:19 | bluebrother | Rockbox hasn't been released for ipod officially, so everything you can get now is pretty much work in progress. |
| 01:42:24 | Chronon | hmm. I thought that there is a feature freeze, so no new CVS updates until May 1 |
| 01:42:32 | bluebrother | just read the cvs log on the frontpage. |
| 01:42:44 | bluebrother | feature freeze means no new _features_ |
| 01:42:57 | webguest69 | Okay so when u goto that page with the picture of devices Under IPOD video you click :"Newest: ? |
| 01:42:58 | Paul_The_Nerd | Chronon: Feature freeze means LOTS of CVS updates. Just none that add features. Bugfixes and the like |
| 01:42:59 | Chronon | ok |
| 01:43:02 | Chronon | gotcha |
| 01:43:17 | Chronon | concentrated on finalizing code for existing features |
| 01:43:30 | webguest69 | ? |
| 01:43:48 | Paul_The_Nerd | webguest69: The daily builds page gives you a build made once per day, the CVS builds page gives you the newest version period, with all changes up until when it was made. |
| 01:43:55 | webguest69 | You guys can boost the volume on ur ipod here >> http://www.ringom.no/espen/euPOD_Pro.zip |
| 01:44:15 | webguest69 | So its more wise to wait til the next release? |
| 01:44:16 | Paul_The_Nerd | webguest69: That has nothing to do with rockbox... |
| 01:45:19 | Paul_The_Nerd | webguest69: Well, there hasn't *been* a release for Ipod yet. It's "wisest" to download the newest version every now and then. If you get a particularly buggy one, use a slightly older version. Once you find one that has very few, or no, bugs that affect you, and has the features you like, stick with it until something you HAVE to have comes along. |
| 01:46:14 | webguest69 | okay so maybe every day goto that page with the Ipod video picture and click "Latest:" and download that? If so which file do I actually put on my ipod root? |
| 01:46:45 | ts-x | Ugh - that Bejeweled thing looks semi legitimate => http://www.popcap.com/aboutus.php |
| 01:46:52 | Chronon | Just extract the zip to the root of your ipod |
| 01:47:08 | | Quit nle (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)) |
| 01:47:16 | Chronon | tell it to overwrite all files and it'll work, webguest69 |
| 01:47:40 | Paul_The_Nerd | webguest69: Have you read the installation instructions? Once you've finished installing the bootloader, all you have to do is extract a rockbox.zip to put the newest version on. |
| 01:47:44 | webguest69 | Oh I see and my original files that i added (ex:doom) will stay |
| 01:47:49 | bluebrother | I need to leave now. Sleep was originally scheduled about 2 hours earlier. Damn mail :( |

| 01:51:03 | ts-x | The screens look strikingly similar as well => http://www.popcap.com/launchpage.php?theGame=diamondmine |

| 01:52:14 | bluebrother | but what'd be the deal with the "deluxe" version they sell? Just bigger screen size? More icons? Themes? |
| 01:52:19 | Paul_The_Nerd | ts-x: Our art comes from a GPL'ed bejeweled clone anyway, so everything we use is on an assertion from someone else that it's legit. |
| 01:52:32 | ts-x | Ahhh |
| 01:53:08 | bluebrother | anyway, I've got to go for now. I guess I need to read the logs tomorrow ... |
| 01:53:22 | Paul_The_Nerd | So, if ours is really infringing, the other one definitely was first. |

| 01:57:45 | webguest85 | Hi quick question |
| 01:58:02 | ts-x | I wonder if all of the recent publicity led them here...damn you / . ;) |
| 01:58:13 | webguest85 | When playing music on rockbox. How do I get back into the root (.rockbox. notes etc |
| 01:58:25 | Mikachu | one of the buttons should do it |
| 01:58:25 | webguest85 | (Are you talking about digg.com?) |
| 01:58:28 | Paul_The_Nerd | Do you want to stop the music? |
| 01:58:37 | webguest85 | Well just go back to the root menu |
| 01:58:39 | Paul_The_Nerd | Or do you want to get to the filetree while the music continues playing? |
| 01:58:40 | Mikachu | /. = slashdot.org |
| 01:58:54 | webguest85 | Back to the root |
| 01:58:57 | webguest85 | menu |
| 01:59:03 | ts-x | It's on digg as well |
| 01:59:05 | Paul_The_Nerd | webguest85: Hold Play/Pause for about 1-2 second if you want to stop the music. Just tap select if you want the music to continue |
| 01:59:11 | | Quit gursikh () |
| 01:59:15 | webguest85 | Lemme try |
| 01:59:18 | Paul_The_Nerd | webguest85: The filetree and the menu are two different things... |
| 01:59:29 | webguest85 | From dig |
| 01:59:29 | webguest85 | http://entertainment.newsforge.com/article.pl?sid=06/04/13/165223 |
| 01:59:32 | webguest85 | menu |
| 01:59:33 | * | Paul_The_Nerd suggests reading the manual |
| 01:59:37 | webguest85 | File tree is the ipod root correct? |
| 01:59:41 | Paul_The_Nerd | Yes |
| 01:59:47 | webguest85 | yes file tree |
| 01:59:56 | Paul_The_Nerd | Then it's the Select button. |
| 02:00 |
| 02:00:13 | Paul_The_Nerd | There's a manual available at the site, and I would recommend greatly reading it. |
| 02:00:31 | webguest85 | I dont haev the time to read a PDF with 88888 pages |
| 02:00:32 | Mikachu | not greatly recommend then? /me hides |
| 02:00:34 | webguest85 | Sorry |
| 02:00:43 | Mikachu | webguest85: we don't have time to rewrite what's already in the manual |
| 02:00:50 | Mikachu | to you on irc |
| 02:01:11 | webguest85 | You can easily reword it too "menu button for 2 seconds" |
| 02:01:25 | Paul_The_Nerd | webguest85: Why do you think it's somebody else's responsibility to hand you information that you can't be bothered to get yourself? |
| 02:01:35 | webguest85 | This is an irc for help.... |
| 02:01:37 | Mikachu | no |
| 02:01:43 | Paul_The_Nerd | "Help" is for "Problems" |
| 02:02:06 | Paul_The_Nerd | "I can't be bothered to demonstrate my position as a member of literate society by reading the instructions for a piece of software I choose to use" is not a "Rockbox problem" it is a "User problem" |
| 02:02:19 | webguest85 | I love you |
| 02:02:25 | Chronon | heheh |
| 02:02:40 | Mikachu | Paul_The_Nerd: that is one of the politer RTFM i have seen in a while :) |
| 02:02:43 | webguest85 | =D |
| 02:03:06 | Paul_The_Nerd | Mikachu: You once asked how I stay sane? That's it right there. Coming up with new and interesting RTFM alternatives. |
| 02:03:14 | Mikachu | hehe |
| 02:03:22 | webguest85 | lol |
| 02:03:34 | Mikachu | i'm not sure it was me who asked, but i've wondered too |
| 02:03:37 | webguest85 | I figured out the tagcache deal |
| 02:03:45 | Paul_The_Nerd | Ah, well somebody asked me. |
| 02:03:48 | Paul_The_Nerd | Several people have asked me. |
| 02:04:02 | webguest85 | It sucks that you have to change it to "show id3 files" to see the music you want. or else it dont show :( |
| 02:04:25 | Mikachu | yes omg there's a setting to do what you want and it's not on by default :(((((( |
| 02:04:45 | scottder | The Horror |
| 02:04:48 | webguest85 | ? |
| 02:04:52 | scottder | You must make a friend of horror |
| 02:05:13 | webguest85 | It shows my music "artist, album etc" But it dont show the other root folders :( |
| 02:05:20 | * | Mikachu mixes some mandrake root and eye of newt to concoct a friend of horror |
| 02:05:38 | scottder | root folders? |
| 02:06:02 | webguest85 | calendar ipod_control .rockbox |
| 02:06:06 | Paul_The_Nerd | webguest85: Well, if your music was in a "Music" folder, in perhaps the format \Music\Artist\Album\Track - Title.mp3 it'd show well in the file tree |
| 02:06:20 | Paul_The_Nerd | But I assume you've got it in the "compatible with itunes" format of "horribly obfuscated filenames of doom" |
| 02:06:31 | webguest85 | But its taking it from Ipod_Control/music |
| 02:06:44 | webguest85 | but If i goto that folder it shows the d123 d341 folders |
| 02:06:49 | Paul_The_Nerd | Yes |
| 02:06:56 | Paul_The_Nerd | Because TagCache shows music based on their Tags |
| 02:07:01 | Paul_The_Nerd | And the directory tree shows it based on their filenames |
| 02:07:11 | webguest85 | Yeah |
| 02:07:17 | warthawg | i think it is time to put some saint willie on the nano |
| 02:07:29 | Paul_The_Nerd | So, if you copied over music using the Ipod as a disk, rather than by way of Itunes, the music wouldn't get renamed, and you'd be set. |

| 02:07:35 | mooch | hi |
| 02:07:47 | webguest85 | But sometimes I use the original firmware |
| 02:07:50 | scottder | Yeah what Paul_The_Nerd |
| 02:07:52 | mooch | if i install rockbox on my ipod5g, do i loose the music I have already there? |
| 02:08:00 | webguest85 | no mooch |
| 02:08:02 | Paul_The_Nerd | I personally, and I suspect many here, actively advocate the growth of users beyond the constraints of music management software that prevents you from having personal control of the state of your music. :) |
| 02:08:06 | mooch | great! |
| 02:08:15 | Paul_The_Nerd | webguest85: Why do you use the original to listen to music? |
| 02:08:15 | webguest85 | lol pauk |
| 02:08:16 | webguest85 | paul* |
| 02:08:22 | scottder | But as webguest85 is learning, itunes meses with file names |
| 02:08:30 | webguest85 | because its complicated to navigate |
| 02:08:46 | mooch | the only problem i have is that my ipod claims to be in lock mode and it only mounts read-only under linux, so i might have to dd if=/dev/null of=/dev/ipod to clean it up |
| 02:08:55 | scottder | I copy music of and do Genre/Artist/Album |
| 02:08:57 | mooch | or has anyone any idea how to solve that? |
| 02:09:01 | scottder | couldn't be easier to navigate |
| 02:09:14 | webguest85 | If I want to use tag cache. I have to goto general settings>file view> then show ID3 files Then theres my music! But The rest of my root files dont show. |
| 02:09:30 | Paul_The_Nerd | webguest85: I thought you said you listened to music in the Retail OS |
| 02:09:52 | webguest85 | I vary between the 2 |
| 02:09:57 | Paul_The_Nerd | It doesn't make sense to me to listen to it in both. I can understand doing music in retail, and games/etc in Rockbox. Or doing Music in Rockbox, and only using retail for video... |
| 02:11:00 | webguest85 | Well since i got that sound booster. Perhaps for retail os ill use it as music/videos and rockbox for apps/games :) thanks paul |
| 02:11:15 | Paul_The_Nerd | I would suggest simply learning to use Rockbox for Music |
| 02:11:27 | Paul_The_Nerd | Seeing as Rockbox does support the full range of volume that the Ipod can output. |
| 02:11:52 | webguest85 | Well I got the volume booster and it gets LOUD in retail os |
| 02:12:03 | * | Paul_The_Nerd shrugs. |
| 02:12:10 | Paul_The_Nerd | As I said, Rockbox supports the full range of the hardware. |
| 02:12:22 | webguest85 | I know |
| 02:12:32 | webguest85 | But I guess Im just to used to ipod os |
| 02:12:45 | webguest85 | What kinda of things non music related can I do in rockbox on my 5g |
| 02:12:53 | Paul_The_Nerd | Not many things. |
| 02:13:00 | Paul_The_Nerd | Seeing as what it does is "Play music better" |
| 02:13:06 | Paul_The_Nerd | That's kinda its purpose |
| 02:13:15 | Paul_The_Nerd | There's a few games and other things, and a better jpeg viewer, but that's about it |
| 02:13:53 | webguest85 | Could you hook me up with a link to the games? and how so a better music player? |
| 02:14:01 | Paul_The_Nerd | The games come with it... |
| 02:14:27 | midkay | better music player. haha. |
| 02:14:29 | webguest85 | oh... I mean 3rd party gamses |
| 02:14:32 | Paul_The_Nerd | And "Gapless, Crossfade, Crossfeed, several new formats, Parametric Equalizer, Replaygain, on the fly full playlist creation and saving" |

| 02:14:59 | webguest85 | thanks |
| 02:15:04 | Paul_The_Nerd | midkay: Were you laughing at whether or not it is a better music player? |
| 02:15:15 | mooch | Ogg is kind of the thing i am looking for |
| 02:15:20 | mooch | 8) |
| 02:15:20 | webguest85 | I just wish I knew how to make playlist and stuff. I did read the pdf and it hurts my mind |
| 02:15:26 | midkay | Paul_The_Nerd, no, at the fact that he "wants" a better music player, as if it's.. not integrated in rockbox or something. |
| 02:15:29 | mooch | does it skip much playing Vorbis? |
| 02:15:33 | midkay | oh. never mind. misread that. |
| 02:15:34 | webguest85 | All I wanna do is shuffle |
| 02:15:45 | Paul_The_Nerd | midkay: I've even to valid MP3s that the Retail OS won't play properly. |
| 02:15:46 | midkay | i thought he said he "wanted new plugins and a better music player".. |
| 02:16:03 | webguest85 | i didnt say that |
| 02:16:04 | midkay | even so, i hope.. pray.. this doesn't happen too often. :) |
| 02:16:07 | Paul_The_Nerd | mooch: On the Nano I can play Q8 vorbis without a problem. |
| 02:16:16 | midkay | webguest85, *read* - i said "i thought he said", not "he said". |
| 02:16:41 | Paul_The_Nerd | midkay: I'm already trying to prepare myself to be ready for the forums. I read the slashdot responses and it made me sad. |
| 02:16:58 | webguest85 | Im prob gonna copy all my music into rockbox for the hell of it |
| 02:17:00 | midkay | Paul_The_Nerd, yeah.. |
| 02:17:02 | webguest85 | i got 25 gigs |
| 02:18:00 | webguest85 | WHAT if I made a suffle, playlist file with Winamp and copied that file into rockbox!? |
| 02:18:20 | Paul_The_Nerd | Then you could play it? |
| 02:18:20 | midkay | what if you just used tagcache? or did i miss something? |
| 02:18:20 | mooch | Paul_The_Nerd: the problem is that i have ALL my music collection (circa 500 cds) in flac+vorbis, so now that i got a video 30gb i do not want to get into the trouble of converting again all the flacs into mp3s |
| 02:18:25 | midkay | Paul_The_Nerd, haha. |

| 02:18:44 | scottder | vorbis r00lz! |
| 02:18:44 | scottder | :) |
| 02:18:44 | Paul_The_Nerd | mooch: Well, are they Q8 or higher vorbis, or lower than that? |
| 02:18:59 | Paul_The_Nerd | webguest85: Why did you just type TAGCACHE in all caps? |
| 02:19:01 | midkay | Paul_The_Nerd, your witty responses make the probably-upcoming hell almost worth it :) |
| 02:19:08 | mooch | Paul_The_Nerd: i use -b 192, so dunno... ;) |
| 02:19:12 | webguest85 | IS there a way to make a shuffle playlist with tagcache |
| 02:19:18 | midkay | HAHA. |
| 02:19:31 | mooch | Paul_The_Nerd: my biggest problem is the issue with the lock hard disk... |
| 02:19:32 | Paul_The_Nerd | mooch: CBR vorbis is already a bad idea. But, those should have no problem playing. Q8 averages ~225ish, maybe higher. |
| 02:19:53 | Moos | Musepack r00lz ; ) |
| 02:20:11 | webguest85 | Can you make a shuffle playlist with tagcache? |
| 02:20:11 | Paul_The_Nerd | webguest85: Can winamp find all the files on your player to make a playlist? 'cuz you can then save the playlist in the root, switch to file view to launch the playlist. Playlist use has nothing to do with TagCache being enabled or disabled really |
| 02:20:15 | scottder | I've been trying Q3 vorbis files with pretty good results |
| 02:20:22 | mooch | Paul_The_Nerd: i mean, i am ready to trash my ipod, but i have no idea how to solve the problem with accessing the hard disk... |
| 02:20:22 | scottder | certainly good enough for portable listening |
| 02:20:40 | Paul_The_Nerd | mooch: That part I really don't know. |
| 02:20:40 | mooch | Paul_The_Nerd: the kernels sets it into read-only mode for some stupid reason |
| 02:21:09 | mooch | Paul_The_Nerd: i think i posted it somewhere... |

| 02:21:10 | webguest85 | Thats a great idea pal |
| 02:21:11 | webguest85 | im gonna try |
| 02:21:16 | webguest85 | im gonna try it |
| 02:21:50 | Paul_The_Nerd | webguest85: If you do it *right* I guarantee it'll work. ;-) |
| 02:22:32 | webguest85 | So ill open a folder through winamp and ill naviage to my ipod drive? |
| 02:22:53 | webguest85 | Wow and winamp encodes it too |
| 02:23:38 | Paul_The_Nerd | Basically, just add the Ipod Control folder to a playlist in Winamp, and then save it as an M3U playlist in the root of your ipod |
| 02:24:02 | webguest85 | Thats the plan :) |

| 02:25:21 | ashridah | you know, i'm wondering if there actually *are* any copyright violations or trademark violations in jewels. the name's still a little dodgy, but there's no copyright violation if you made all the art yourself (not to mention code), and there's no trademark violation if your art doesn't look like his (that's assuming he HAS a trademark on the art) |
| 02:26:05 | scottder | I just want Doom on my nano...all the cool kids have it! |

| 02:26:06 | | Quit webguest85 ("CGI:IRC (EOF)") |
| 02:26:13 | Paul_The_Nerd | ahsridah: The art definitely looks somewhat similar to Bejeweled, and there is the name thing. But that's aboug it. |
| 02:26:15 | ashridah | and unless he's trademarked the gameplay (which i doubt, or ID software would probably be the only company that can create FPS's)... |
| 02:26:38 | Paul_The_Nerd | ashridah: Not to mention I swear I played the same game on my NES before Popcap even existed. |
| 02:26:38 | scottder | ashridah: don't give them ideas! |
| 02:27:11 | ashridah | Paul_The_Nerd: time to hit the NES game archives then |

| 02:27:48 | Paul_The_Nerd | ashridah: Yeah. Well, maybe not NES unfortunately, but I do have fairly clear memories of a very pixellated game with identical or very nearly identical gameplay |
| 02:27:54 | qwm | can i use rockbox to make toast |
| 02:28:30 | ashridah | so what's this recent slashdotting anyway? |
| 02:28:37 | ashridah | ah, nevermind |
| 02:28:51 | Paul_The_Nerd | qwm: Make sure you have a LOT of very small MP3 files with tags on them, and then start a Tagcache Update. Lay plastic side down, and put the bread on the metal side. |
| 02:29:18 | ashridah | Paul_The_Nerd: heh |
| 02:29:21 | qwm | haha. |
| 02:29:23 | qwm | excellent idea! |

| 02:29:56 | | Part Paul_The_Nerd |
| 02:30:50 | ashridah | anyway, we need to rename jewels again (although i seriously object that "jewels" is close to "bejeweled", it's easier to remove any reference to jewel at all, and change the artwork so it's not similar in any way shape or form |
| 02:30:57 | Alicia_R | I managed to get the loader on there, but whenever I extract the rockbox firmware and other stuff like that to the root iPod directory, I get "Rockbox error: -1" upon rebooting it. |
| 02:31:08 | ashridah | then he can only give us hell about the gameplay style. |
| 02:31:14 | Alicia_R | And upon checking the disc, the rockbox.ipod file is gone, and .rockbox is corrupt. :l |
| 02:31:29 | scottder | bestoned? |
| 02:31:30 | scottder | :) |
| 02:32:47 | obo | Alicia_R: can only suggest you fix any disk errors and re-extract rockbox.ipod and the .rockbox folder |
| 02:32:50 | ashridah | ScootScat: haha |
| 02:33:03 | Alicia_R | Yeah, I just restored the iPod and tried again. |
| 02:33:06 | ashridah | god damn nick complete |
| 02:33:16 | ashridah | scottder: something like that. |
| 02:33:56 | scottder | :) |
| 02:34:05 | ashridah | Alicia_R: are you possibly not letting it finish writing before disconnecting the device? |
| 02:34:45 | Alicia_R | What do you mean? Windows XP says it's finished extracting to the root directory, so I wait a minute for good measure, then reboot the iPod. |
| 02:35:11 | Alicia_R | I get the -1 error, and upon checking root again, rockbox.ipod is gone. This is weird. |
| 02:35:51 | ashridah | Alicia_R: uh, don't you need to go for the whole "disconnect usb device" (you could be using firewire i guess) |
| 02:36:11 | ashridah | just yanking it out isn't what i'd call conclusive :) |
| 02:36:16 | Alicia_R | I'm using USB. But that might be it.. lemme try again. :b |
| 02:36:23 | scottder | be sure to eject it within Itunes |
| 02:36:33 | scottder | that's what I do with my Nano |

| 02:47:03 | nle | is there anyway to trick the ipod into not needing the external power adapter after a restore (ipod 4g). |
| 02:47:13 | nle | i dont have it here :/ |
| 02:47:57 | Galois | reset the ipod... |
| 02:48:20 | roostishaw | Apostle^, is the correct command dd if=/dev/sda2 of=bootpartition.bin ? |
| 02:48:31 | TeaSea | Is there any way to trick the X5 into updating firmware without the adaptor? My friend really wants rockbox but can't find his adaptor :D |
| 02:48:47 | Apostle^ | roostishaw: /dev/sda1 probably since '2' is usually the storage partition |
| 02:49:20 | roostishaw | Apostle^, ok, but how do i know thats my ipod and not my hdd ? |
| 02:49:34 | Apostle^ | roostishaw: right after you plug in the hd type dmesg in a terminal |
| 02:49:40 | Apostle^ | it will give you theright one like sdh |
| 02:49:45 | Apostle^ | then you would do /dev/sdh |

| 03:34:55 | ts-x | no |
| 03:35:15 | ts-x | Have to boot retailos for that |
| 03:35:58 | kidd3ckz | ok one more, will anapod manager work with it? |
| 03:36:05 | ashridah | kidd3ckz: sadly, the video chipset in the 5g's is poorly documented at best, and broadcom (naturally) aren't being helpful, so vid support is going to be a long long while |
| 03:36:33 | kidd3ckz | who u gotta hack to get the docs? |

| 03:40:08 | VoltageX | once rockbox is built, what parts do i copy to my player? |
| 03:40:48 | thouters | VoltageX: make zip |
| 03:40:50 | thouters | and unzip the zip |
| 03:43:25 | thouters | VoltageX: what are you trying to do (I'm trying to fix the calendar.c so I can use it to view my class schedule:-) |
| 03:44:44 | VoltageX | build rockbox so i can see if my plugin works |
| 03:44:52 | | Quit damaki_ (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)) |
| 03:45:04 | VoltageX | but when it's built, build/ contains a lot of source files mixed with binaries |
| 03:45:29 | thouters | it's mentioned on the website somewhere |
| 03:45:45 | thouters | make zip/ unzip works fine for me :) |
| 03:45:55 | thouters | what plugin did you write? |
| 03:46:22 | VoltageX | allyourbase.rock :) |
| 03:46:28 | VoltageX | it's just a helloworld |
| 03:46:52 | thouters | :) |
| 03:46:53 | VoltageX | I did make bzip2 |
| 03:47:02 | midkay | you only need to copy apps/plugins/allyourbase.rock to test changes.. |
| 03:47:16 | VoltageX | oh yeah *slaps forehead |
| 03:47:18 | thouters | good point there :P |
| 03:47:21 | midkay | that's builddir/apps/plugins/allyourbase.rock - make sure your rockbox build is up-to-date though. |
| 03:47:44 | midkay | maybe make zip and install it the first time, and for later tests just make and then copy the rock. |
| 03:48:04 | thouters | you can cut some of the plugins out of SOURCES, if you want it to compile faster ;) |
| 03:48:17 | VoltageX | can you make a .rock without the whole rockbox? |
| 03:48:58 | ashridah | no-one's really exported a development environment yet |
| 03:49:58 | thouters | VoltageX: the build doesn't compile already compiled files again |
| 03:50:15 | thouters | so it doesn't slow your trail and error that mutch |
| 03:50:28 | VoltageX | wtf...the file isn't there |
| 03:50:52 | warthawg | good time to catch up on latest daily build, i reckon |
| 03:50:53 | VoltageX | and there's no helloworld.c either |
| 03:52:10 | thouters | VoltageX: did you include the file in SOURCES? |
| 03:52:32 | VoltageX | no, helloworld.c was never downloaded from CVS |
| 03:52:44 | thouters | well, in apps/plugins |
| 03:52:46 | VoltageX | was it removed? (there was something in the wiki about it) |
| 03:52:48 | thouters | is a file named SOURCES |
| 03:53:02 | thouters | all cfiles listed in there get compiled |

| 04:40:35 | VoltageX | lostlogic: I gotta start somewhere |
| 04:40:37 | roostishaw | then... |
| 04:40:50 | roostishaw | will it load automatically from then on? |
| 04:41:06 | lostlogic | roostishaw: no, there are active settings which are saved in a special sector and those load automatically |
| 04:41:32 | lostlogic | but if something resets them or an imcompatible version of the settings block comes out then you will need to load from a .cfg file |
| 04:41:40 | lostlogic | so you can go to manage settings -> load .cfg file to load one |
| 04:41:42 | roostishaw | so whats the point of even going through the trouble of customizing all the setting if they're not saved? |
| 04:41:54 | lostlogic | roostishaw: they _are_ in a special sector, as I said |

| 04:42:21 | roostishaw | ...ok, so they do load on startup? |
| 04:42:23 | lostlogic | or so you can restore your settings after an incompatible upgrade |
| 04:42:29 | lostlogic | rightr, but not from a .cfg file |
| 04:42:32 | Paul_The_Nerd | Or for transferring settings from one unit to another |
| 04:42:34 | roostishaw | just installed |
| 04:42:46 | lostlogic | saving and loading on boot are completely automatic unless there is an incompatible settings block version |

| 04:55:51 | lostlogic | airwolf4ever: unfortunately many podcasts contain DRM which rockbox does not supportt |
| 04:56:06 | airwolf4ever | ahh ok |
| 04:56:20 | airwolf4ever | I was also doing some reasearch on Ipodlinux |
| 04:56:35 | Paul_The_Nerd | Well, Ipodlinux serves a drastically different purpose |
| 04:56:37 | airwolf4ever | do you know if they support this new ipod? |
| 04:56:41 | lostlogic | ipodlinux has much less music playing support than rockbox |

| 04:56:46 | airwolf4ever | ok |
| 04:56:59 | lostlogic | and I don't think their 5g support is as good as ours, but don't quote me on that |
| 04:57:11 | airwolf4ever | thats cool |
| 04:57:27 | Paul_The_Nerd | If your podcasts are MP3, you should be able to use them with Rockbox |

| 04:57:36 | lostlogic | Jungti1234: yes |
| 04:57:40 | Paul_The_Nerd | If they're AAC, the likelihood of them working properly drops drastically |
| 04:57:41 | airwolf4ever | I think they are |
| 04:57:43 | Jungti1234 | commit it |
| 04:57:47 | Jungti1234 | only patch |
| 04:57:50 | airwolf4ever | does rockbox also do video? |

| 04:58:28 | Jungti1234 | I didn't make it |
| 04:58:41 | lostlogic | Jungti1234: I'm confused |
| 04:58:43 | airwolf4ever | so no video playback on the video ipod |
| 04:58:50 | Jungti1234 | commit only your patch |
| 04:58:56 | Paul_The_Nerd | airwolf4ever: Rockbox is primarily designed for Audio players, so no. It doesn't do video. And it probably won't support it soon, unless someone from outside comes up with a way, because there's too much work that can still be done to improve audio related features. |
| 04:59:02 | lostlogic | Jungti1234: I did |
| 04:59:07 | Jungti1234 | ok |

| 04:59:24 | airwolf4ever | cool thank you for all the info |
| 04:59:34 | airwolf4ever | I still think the delete feature is worth it |

| 05:00:51 | Paul_The_Nerd | Well, you can't really delete things that show up in the Retail OS very well from rockbox |
| 05:01:10 | Paul_The_Nerd | It does this crazy thing where it obfuscates the files by renaming them, and it has its own database which the files must be removed from, and so on. |

| 05:03:23 | lostlogic | piroko: yeah, known |
| 05:03:28 | Paul_The_Nerd | It's fully turned off, it's just not cleared first. |

| 05:04:08 | lostlogic | Paul_The_Nerd: am I forgetting any outstanding bugs in playback currently? I know about seeking into, or within the last pcmbufsecs of the track, anything else I'm forgetting? |
| 05:04:25 | piroko | crossfade doesn't always work. it seems kinda random |
| 05:04:36 | piroko | but i guess that's an extra feature |
| 05:04:40 | Paul_The_Nerd | lostlogic: Not that I know of. It's a little hard to tell because half the time they're reporting a bug you fixed 2 or 3 hours before. =/ |
| 05:05:01 | piroko | testing out the newest version now... |
| 05:05:04 | lostlogic | piroko: depends on pcm buffer level, watch the audio thread debug screen and see if it works when the pcm buffer is high and not when it's low |
| 05:05:43 | lostlogic | Paul_The_Nerd: ahaha, whoops :-P Well as always let me know via /msg or wiki, I sleep now. |
| 05:05:55 | lostlogic | piroko: if that's not the case then I might have broken crossfade on codec changes or something of that stupid sort. |

| 05:06:43 | lostlogic | piroko: increase the antiskip buffer? weird. |
| 05:06:55 | piroko | yeah. it won't crossfade at all if it's at 5 seconds |
| 05:07:02 | piroko | i have it at 5 minutes |
| 05:07:07 | piroko | is there any harm in that? |
| 05:07:17 | Paul_The_Nerd | But the antiskip buffer should only affect the Compressed Buffer, right? |
| 05:07:17 | | Quit airwolf4ever ("CGI:IRC (EOF)") |
| 05:07:17 | lostlogic | piroko: means the disk will spin up to rebuffer more often, but for less teim |
| 05:07:25 | webguest38 | now im having trouble compiling |
| 05:07:39 | lostlogic | Paul_The_Nerd: probably less likely to be buffer filling during track transition with a higher watermark |
| 05:07:44 | piroko | i don't understand why you'd want to keep the disk buffer low... |
| 05:08:00 | lostlogic | piroko: you want to fill it as rarely as possible to reduce battery usage |
| 05:08:02 | Paul_The_Nerd | piroko: It's not exactly what you think |
| 05:08:06 | webguest38 | when i compile the source after patches i get this error: WARNING: The compiler you must use (arm-elf-gcc) is not in your path! |
| 05:08:18 | Paul_The_Nerd | piroko: What you're actually setting is "How much compressed audio do I have to go below, before the buffer refills" |
| 05:08:25 | lostlogic | g'night rockboxers and slashdotters. |
| 05:08:31 | webguest38 | then if i try to make anyway i get this make[1]: arm-elf-gcc: Command not found |
| 05:08:36 | Paul_The_Nerd | piroko: So, at 5 minutes, you can have the disk fail to read for 5 minutes before you get a skip. |
| 05:09:09 | lostlogic | webguest38: then you didnt' install a CrossCompiler as the instructions say to do. |
| 05:09:11 | Paul_The_Nerd | webguest38: Then you don't have arm-elf-gcc in your path. It's a pretty clear error message. Are you on linux? |
| 05:09:32 | ashridah | webguest38: what're you using for your development environment? |
| 05:09:36 | webguest38 | no, im running the BSD subsystem on OSX |
| 05:09:40 | piroko | g'night lostlogic |
| 05:09:43 | Paul_The_Nerd | piroko: In the end, this means that the lower you set the value, the longer it plays between disk reads, but the more likely you'll get a skip if a disk read fails. |

| 05:11:44 | webguest38 | hmm |
| 05:11:46 | webguest38 | ok |
| 05:11:51 | webguest38 | i'll try it out |

| 05:11:52 | webguest38 | thanks |
| 05:12:12 | piroko | darwin ports uses /opt/local, fink uses /sw. no problem. once you get darwin ports running (not hard at all) a sudo fink install arm-elf-gcc |
| 05:12:15 | piroko | should suffice |

| 05:14:47 | Paul_The_Nerd | piroko: The lower you can set the anti-skip-buffer the better for the battery. So, basically, set it at the lowest, if you have skipping problems raise it a little, so on and so forth |

| 05:42:52 | ashridah | Kyomi: it's worked pretty well for me, although i don't use it, since i have far too many crazily tagged compilations |
| 05:43:02 | Kyomi | Oh |
| 05:43:04 | ssstormy | build-dir/apps/rockbox.bin is the program itself right? |

| 05:43:48 | Kyomi | And why does windows and rockbox say I have 52MB and windows says I have 260somethingMB free? |
| 05:43:52 | Paul_The_Nerd | ashridah: The % works now |
| 05:43:58 | Kyomi | errr.. second windows = original firmware |
| 05:44:17 | ashridah | Kyomi: because the original firmware sucks balls at keeping the freespace flags in fat in check |
| 05:44:18 | Paul_The_Nerd | Kyomi: Car adapter mode is used to control power on/off when plugged/unplugged (so it shuts off when you turn off your car) but doesn't really work for ipods at the moment |
| 05:44:22 | Paul_The_Nerd | Kyomi: Or H300 |

| 05:46:20 | Paul_The_Nerd | piroko: Well, last time I ran a forced tagcache update from scratch, then watched the % in the debug menu, it showed accurately as the tagcache was built |
| 05:46:52 | piroko | ... nevermind. sorry I was thinking ipod battery %. off topic... |
| 05:46:55 | Kyomi | I still think it's funny mine is -1% complete |
| 05:47:43 | Kyomi | Beware the massive geek that is me and watch me copy over Monty Python and the Holy Grail script to read on my H320 XD |
| 05:48:37 | Kyomi | I also got tired of removing all the themes/wps/rocks I never used/hated |

| 05:51:41 | Paul_The_Nerd | piroko: Where did you get that number? |
| 05:51:47 | piroko | flyspray |
| 05:51:53 | piroko | Showing tasks 41 - 60 of 775 |
| 05:52:05 | Paul_The_Nerd | ssstormy: Because it doesn't play audio yet, and most people who are actually developing it use our bootloader (when they were around, which is no longer) |
| 05:52:24 | Paul_The_Nerd | piroko: Bugs, or is that including Feature Requests and Patches? Also, some of those are 2+ years old, and haven't been closed |
| 05:53:11 | piroko | ah. that makes sense though. I was looking at everything. and the crossfade not working at 5second buffer was incorrect on my part. I had to perform a restart to get crossfade working properly. |
| 05:53:32 | piroko | but it still is working randomly... |
| 05:53:33 | piroko | :( |
| 05:54:17 | ssstormy | Paul_The_Nerd: you mean no one is develing 3G ipod anymore!? |
| 05:55:04 | Paul_The_Nerd | ssstormy: Nobody here owns one, so it can't be developed directly. |
| 05:55:18 | ssstormy | oh the arghness |
| 05:55:27 | Paul_The_Nerd | ssstormy: Basically we need someone with moderate or better programming experience who owns a 3G who will either sit around and test things, or work on it himself. |
| 05:55:51 | ssstormy | well I can test everything you throw at me |
| 05:55:57 | ssstormy | but I don't know a thing about programming |
| 05:56:49 | | Join amiconn_ [0] (n=jens@rockbox/developer/amiconn) |
| 05:56:53 | piroko | read a programming book ;) sorry, had to state the obvious |
| 05:57:39 | ssstormy | piroko: yeah I know I should. I would, but I've recently picked up some other hobbies before I could start programming. Like a girl. :P |
| 05:57:41 | Paul_The_Nerd | ssstormy: Well, I can't say exactly what's needed anyway. When Linuxstb starts being around, ask him if you can help with 3G in any way. |
| 05:58:01 | ssstormy | ok |
| 05:58:26 | ssstormy | linuxstb: hello, I'm just shouting at you. I'd like to help with the 3G tessting if I can, I have one myself. |
| 05:59:38 | piroko | ssstormy: ah yes. girls can do that whole distraction thing :) |
| 06:00 |
| 06:00:10 | ssstormy | piroko: yeah. I even had a book, learn C in 24 hours, next to my bed. Had to return it to the library though, after it had been overdue a few weeks |
| 06:00:41 | piroko | when using tagcache, every once in a while i'll choose a file to play, and it'll go to the wps screen for like one second and then kick me back to the browser screen without starting playback. is this also known? |
| 06:00:58 | ssstormy | well thanks guys, I'll check back in a while |

| 06:02:20 | Kyomi | Anyone know if the midi function is even close to working? |
| 06:02:32 | Kyomi | I could start exporting my music to midi :) |
| 06:02:49 | Kyomi | Although mp3/ogg works.. I want to be difficult XD |
| 06:03:00 | Paul_The_Nerd | Kyomi: "Close" yes. But "Moving closer" no. |
| 06:03:12 | Paul_The_Nerd | piroko: I don't think it is known, but I'm not sure. |
| 06:03:13 | Kyomi | So it hasn't moved since the doom update? |
| 06:03:43 | Paul_The_Nerd | Yup. And it didn't move for ages before tht |
| 06:03:44 | Paul_The_Nerd | that |
| 06:03:47 | VoltageX | ooh there's a video plugin? it doesn't build though |
| 06:04:07 | Paul_The_Nerd | VoltageX: The Video Plugin is really not something you'd want to use... |
| 06:04:28 | ashridah | VoltageX: the video plugin is for a much older archos version |
| 06:04:32 | * | VoltageX adds to wishlist |
| 06:05:07 | Kyomi | Someone make the midi function move ;_; |
| 06:05:23 | Kyomi | Or else I'm wasting like 30MB |
| 06:05:26 | piroko | that lcd bug on the ipod is kinda dangerous. if you don't notice it when the ipod shuts off, it could damage it potentially, couldn't it? |
| 06:05:29 | Kyomi | I need a bigger HD |
| 06:06:02 | piroko | when I turn it back on after leaving the line there for a minute or so, it stays on the screen for a good 30 seconds before disappearing |
| 06:06:04 | Kyomi | I only have seasons 1-3.5 of ReBoot on my player... theres still 1.5 seasons left :P |
| 06:06:15 | piroko | Kyomi: I have 1-4 :D |

| 06:08:03 | Kyomi | I recorded that and put it on myspace :D |
| 06:08:05 | piroko | My favorite episode! |
| 06:08:07 | ashridah | VoltageX: cartoon about the personification of the insides of computers |
| 06:08:12 | piroko | I have the song on itunes |
| 06:08:21 | Kyomi | piroko: My fav ep is Game Over :) |
| 06:08:24 | VoltageX | might have to have a look |
| 06:08:25 | Kyomi | I sooooo want that fighting game |
| 06:08:31 | Kyomi | The music is awesome |
| 06:08:33 | piroko | that episode gave me chills. the one with megabyte vs. bob in the guitar solos |

| 06:18:11 | Kyomi | I played that a bit |
| 06:18:14 | Kyomi | Got bored with it |
| 06:18:19 | ashridah | VoltageX: the hard part about porting a codec comes in a few ways. a) license (must be GPL compatible), b) floating-point usage (can't use floating point math) and c) optimisation (getting it to run quickly once it runs at all) |
| 06:18:21 | Kyomi | I'd rather play a MUD :P |
| 06:18:22 | bancus | has anyone considered a port of nethack to rockbox? |
| 06:18:31 | piroko | Kyomi: oh yeah, I've done that too. aardwolf |
| 06:18:32 | Kyomi | nethack pissed me off |
| 06:18:42 | VoltageX | ashridah: a) is ok |
| 06:18:43 | piroko | bancus: i almost suggested that idea earlier today |
| 06:18:46 | Kyomi | Thers supposedly a board you can get that makes you un-detectable |
| 06:18:47 | Kyomi | Didn't work |
| 06:18:56 | Kyomi | Then when you have to change around files |
| 06:18:57 | VoltageX | ashridah: the rest, I'm screwed coz I'm a C noob |

| 06:19:12 | bancus | so no python interpreter for rockbox, eh? :D |
| 06:19:21 | piroko | Kyomi: what are you talking about? |
| 06:19:26 | VoltageX | bancus: that would rule |
| 06:19:28 | Kyomi | nethack :P |
| 06:19:38 | piroko | a board that makes you un-detectable? |
| 06:19:39 | VoltageX | bancus: but be pointless |
| 06:19:40 | dj-fu | just like to say.. Rockbox pwns so hard. has fixed all my issues with ipod+linux :) |
| 06:19:54 | ashridah | well, given that rockbox doesn't really have a virtual memory implementation, an interpreted language might be a bit hard to implement |
| 06:19:58 | bancus | VoltageX: I dunno if it'd be pointless |
| 06:20:06 | bancus | C is a bitch to code in. |
| 06:20:15 | dj-fu | quick question, how do I install a "WPS" theme. |
| 06:20:17 | bancus | Of course, I used to code ASM, but then, python has made me soft. |
| 06:20:31 | dj-fu | mono on rockbox! ha ;D |
| 06:20:31 | Kyomi | piroko |
| 06:20:31 | bancus | dj-fu: copy it to .rockbox/wps, I think |

| 06:20:46 | piroko | Kyomi |

| 06:22:56 | Paul_The_Nerd | bancus: Did you just call C an inferior language? I hope you're not trying to pass opinion off as the actual case. |
| 06:23:14 | ashridah | VoltageX: i assume fmod is a tracker codec? or am i way off? |
| 06:23:18 | bancus | Paul_The_Nerd: It's my opinion, sure. |
| 06:23:25 | VoltageX | ashridah: one of the best tracker codecs |
| 06:23:28 | bancus | I admit C has its uses, but *shrug*. |
| 06:23:39 | Paul_The_Nerd | bancus: So what would you code a firmware for an embedded device in? |
| 06:23:47 | VoltageX | Paul_The_Nerd: asm |
| 06:23:48 | ashridah | VoltageX: what language is it written in? the only fmod i know is a commercial audio library |
| 06:23:50 | bancus | I'm not saying rockbox shouldn't be in C. |
| 06:23:59 | Kyomi | It should be in asm XD |
| 06:24:04 | Kyomi | Ooo! |
| 06:24:06 | VoltageX | o.O I'm sure there was a GNU tracker codec |
| 06:24:06 | bancus | I'm just stating my preference for my personal hobby time. |
| 06:24:07 | Kyomi | Make it in java :D |
| 06:24:20 | Kyomi | Then I might be able to do something |
| 06:24:21 | bancus | mikmod? |
| 06:24:29 | ashridah | VoltageX: besides, i thought someone was working on using DUMB or something |
| 06:24:30 | bancus | Kyomi: ew :x |
| 06:24:36 | VoltageX | DOH fmod isn't gpl |
| 06:24:46 | bancus | what is it? |
| 06:24:50 | VoltageX | ashridah: they would be my hero if they are |
| 06:24:52 | ashridah | bancus: mikmod's pretty much out of the question, it's pretty inferior in comparison to other mod players |
| 06:24:54 | Paul_The_Nerd | bancus: Then that hardly makes C an "inferior" language, if it's the tool suitable for the task. |
| 06:25:10 | bancus | Paul_The_Nerd: and my task is enjoying myself on the weekend |
| 06:25:12 | | Quit angelashes () |
| 06:25:20 | bancus | Which C is hardly suitable for. |
| 06:25:49 | ashridah | VoltageX: i'd hit up the rockbox forums and look around for references to DUMB and whatnot. |
| 06:26:00 | ashridah | bancus: so, rockbox should change to give you a hobby? |
| 06:26:04 | bancus | ... |
| 06:26:07 | bancus | Scroll up. |
| 06:26:09 | Paul_The_Nerd | bancus: Ah, but the subject here is working on Rockbox, and at no point before did you mention the words "enjoying" or "weekend" so one can only assume its effectiveness was being judged for the aforementioned task of coding Rockbox. |
| 06:26:12 | ashridah | heh |
| 06:26:14 | bancus | Did I *ever* say that rockbox shouldn't be in C? |
| 06:26:20 | ashridah | sorry, i'm being deliberately obtuse :) |

| 06:26:48 | Paul_The_Nerd | I have no stick with which to beat the denizens of the forum, so I must enjoy myself here to survive. |
| 06:26:59 | bancus | The idea there was relating that it's a hobby. |
| 06:27:09 | bancus | Someone asked if I knew C, I was merely talking about it. |
| 06:27:27 | * | Paul_The_Nerd needs badly a 'forum denizen beating stick' of some sort. |
| 06:27:31 | bancus | Heh. |
| 06:27:43 | ashridah | but yeah. C's painfulness comes from how it's used more than anything. |
| 06:27:47 | dj-fu | right, is there a way to like, add all the music to a playlist with this? I'm new, is there a wiki that I can oorgle over somewhere? |
| 06:27:57 | dj-fu | I absolutely love having drag'n'drop.. means I don't ahve to reboot to itune. |
| 06:28:00 | bancus | ashridah: Have you ever see GObj-C? |
| 06:28:02 | bancus | seen |
| 06:28:02 | ashridah | i doubt rockbox's architecture is perfect, but i'm willing to bet it's not deliberately painful |
| 06:28:06 | bancus | It's *hideous*. |
| 06:28:14 | bancus | My god is it ever evil. |
| 06:28:18 | Paul_The_Nerd | Please to compare these two "It doesn't work" threads: http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=3567.0 and http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=3569.0 |
| 06:28:21 | piroko | argh. too late... need sleep... goddnight everyone |
| 06:28:26 | bancus | It's the reason I only did one bugfix for Rhythmbox. |
| 06:28:29 | piroko | as in goodnight... |
| 06:28:41 | ashridah | dj-fu: go to the root of your player, hit the menu button, playlist options, create playlist |
| 06:28:56 | Paul_The_Nerd | They both have their problems, (one is a typical "I got an error message but kept going for no apparent reason, without asking for help") but clearly one is much less frustrating than the other |
| 06:28:57 | bancus | Figuring out where the menu button was on an X5 was interesting. |
| 06:29:06 | ashridah | you'll get a .m3u containing all your music called root.m3u in the root of the device. |
| 06:29:28 | VoltageX | ashridah: DUMB is kind of a hard keyword to search for :D |
| 06:29:38 | bancus | VoltageX: libdumb? |
| 06:29:42 | ashridah | heh |
| 06:30:10 | ashridah | but dumb, codec, and mod or tracker probably should narrow it down a bit |
| 06:30:57 | dj-fu | ty ashridah |
| 06:31:03 | ashridah | VoltageX: anyway, i seem to recall the issue with trackers being more in how to deal with inserting them into the playback system, since you can't start decoding one without loading it entirely into memory, if memory serves |
| 06:31:23 | dj-fu | holy crap this owns |
| 06:32:09 | bancus | I get the feeling I'm going to have to make my own wps. |
| 06:32:15 | bancus | None of them quite manage what I want. |
| 06:32:21 | bancus | But, the good news is, I can. |
| 06:32:28 | dj-fu | the ipod nano vision looks quite nice |
| 06:32:39 | dj-fu | something minimalistic with a black background wins |
| 06:32:42 | ashridah | yes, that is a pleasantness, although the wps syntax is a bit arcane :) |

| 07:05:07 | Jungti1234 | It may be foolish ideas. hehe |

| 07:15:24 | VoltageX | well I added dumb to the makefile where it looks as it should be, but it's not making it |
| 07:15:30 | VoltageX | there's a dumb section in the makefile |
| 07:15:32 | Paul_The_Nerd | dj-fu: 24-bit, same dimensions as the screen |
| 07:15:36 | VoltageX | and it seems to skip it |
| 07:15:43 | dj-fu | sweet, got it |
| 07:15:54 | dj-fu | is ther a way to select a .bmp for backdrop.. or do I have to edit a .wps to load it |
| 07:17:15 | Paul_The_Nerd | dj-fu: To use it in a WPS you use the %X tag (capital X) |
| 07:17:34 | dj-fu | sweet |
| 07:17:38 | Paul_The_Nerd | To use it as a menu backdrop, you set it to show all files, browse to /.rockbox/backdrops (where the file needs to be) and click and hold on the .bmp and then choose Set as Backdrop |
| 07:17:44 | dj-fu | oh |
| 07:17:45 | dj-fu | dope |
| 07:19:00 | dj-fu | If I was a blog guy. I'd so blog about this |
| 07:19:23 | Paul_The_Nerd | Heh |
| 07:21:23 | VoltageX | Paul_The_Nerd: does the fact that it's skipping libdumb mean that it's totally broken? |
| 07:21:25 | *** | Saving seen data "./dancer.seen" |
| 07:21:59 | Kyomi | backdrop as in background while the music isn't playing? |
| 07:22:01 | Paul_The_Nerd | VoltageX: Nah. If it were broken in that way, you'd get warnings/errors from compiling. It's not added right, though I honestly can't say how it needs to be. I've never tinkered with that one. |
| 07:22:09 | Paul_The_Nerd | Kyomi: As in background behind the menus and file tree. |
| 07:22:10 | dj-fu | backdrop as in the background on any screen |
| 07:22:16 | Kyomi | I'm guessing it has to be 220x176? Or does it auto-scale? |
| 07:22:17 | dj-fu | and the wps too no? |
| 07:22:27 | dj-fu | nano's are a little smaller |
| 07:22:30 | VoltageX | Paul_The_Nerd: who would know? I'm really really wanting to play tracker music |

| 07:23:40 | Jungti1234 | hey |
| 07:23:51 | VoltageX | a lot of the cvs dumb stuff is done by 'hlc' but there's no contact details |
| 07:23:53 | Paul_The_Nerd | dj-fu: If the WPS does not define a backdrop in it, I believe it uses the menu one. Otherwise if it has a %X tag it uses its own |
| 07:23:56 | Paul_The_Nerd | Kyomi: Match, rather |
| 07:24:15 | Kyomi | Argh |
| 07:24:16 | Paul_The_Nerd | VoltageX: HCl, I thought. |

| 07:42:18 | * | Paul_The_Nerd wold rather avoid OSX altogether as it offers him nothing. |

| 07:42:25 | paco | yeah |
| 07:42:26 | cacophony | you know |
| 07:42:30 | cacophony | I installed itunes today |
| 07:42:30 | paco | dont |
| 07:42:34 | cacophony | and it installed a rootkit |

| 07:43:01 | cacophony | I dont understand how apple fanboys can be so high and mighty, and look down on the sony drm issue, when itunes does the same thing |
| 07:43:04 | paco | they're just trendy idiots that have no idea about anything |
| 07:43:07 | cacophony | it tried to install a driver to my cdrom |

| 08:07:21 | Slocketman | i think i'm using... zezayer? |
| 08:07:22 | Paul_The_Nerd | paco: Well, you need to probably overwrite 2.95.3, or remove it from the path, and then put 4.0.0.1 in the path |
| 08:07:31 | Slocketman | yes. zezayer is nice |
| 08:07:36 | dj-fu | or change the symlink to point at 4.0.0.1 |
| 08:07:39 | dj-fu | (lol)? |
| 08:07:48 | paco | problem is that i cant find the 2.95.3 path |

| 08:12:44 | ashridah | it's a pity the extension required to do some of that stuff hasn't been finalized in nvidia's 3d driver. |

| 08:12:57 | ashridah | (well, finalized full stop, really, since it hasn't standardized) |

| 08:13:28 | dj-fu | nvidia support for Xgl is > ati |

| 08:14:29 | sayocean | on itunes, i have a song that shows up |
| 08:14:33 | sayocean | but on the ipod, it is missing.. |
| 08:14:35 | sayocean | any idea what is going on? |
| 08:14:42 | ashridah | dj-fu: ah, not quite. the Xgl stuff uses an extension that even the most recent nvidia drivers hacen't supported yet, so you're stuck with mesa for the effects (not that they're slow with mesa, surprisingly, they're pretty fast) |
| 08:14:43 | dj-fu | rm -rf itunes/ |

| 08:15:48 | dj-fu | sayocean, it's probably in the iTunesDB, but not on the drive. |
| 08:15:51 | sayocean | and look at my ipod |
| 08:15:54 | sayocean | its not there |
| 08:15:56 | dj-fu | ^^ |
| 08:15:59 | ashridah | infamis: http://people.freedesktop.org/~davidr/xgl-demo1.xvid.avi btw. it's 58MB, but well worth watching for the effects |
| 08:16:01 | sayocean | dj fu and idea how to remedy it? |
| 08:16:08 | dj-fu | I had the same issues, and gave up. now I run rockbox |
| 08:16:17 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: Is it a store bought file? What format is it? |
| 08:16:28 | sayocean | its a song i ripped from a cd |
| 08:16:29 | sayocean | mp3 |
| 08:16:32 | dj-fu | lol |
| 08:16:39 | dj-fu | try find it in disk mode? |
| 08:16:48 | infamis | dunno...I'm anti-iPod but've had to mess with iPod/itunes for my girlfriend & dad's iPods |
| 08:16:58 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: And it doesn't show up in TagCache? Have you tried forcing a clean tagcache update (deleting the old tagcache files?) |
| 08:17:11 | sayocean | paul, this is for apple firmware |
| 08:17:20 | sayocean | i forgot to mention, i can find the song via SONGS |
| 08:17:27 | sayocean | but when i go through Artists, its not there |
| 08:17:36 | Paul_The_Nerd | Sounds like it doesn't have a proper Artist tag then |
| 08:17:36 | sayocean | but on my itunes, its tagged correctly |
| 08:17:37 | infamis | incorrectly tagged? |
| 08:17:44 | sayocean | its correctly tagged |
| 08:17:46 | Paul_The_Nerd | There's *something* wrong with the tag |
| 08:17:48 | sayocean | i have two versions of the song |
| 08:17:49 | midkay | sayocean, are you tagging it on the iPod or in your library? |
| 08:17:52 | sayocean | one original, one remix |
| 08:17:55 | sayocean | the remix one doesnt show |
| 08:17:57 | Paul_The_Nerd | Or at least, there's something wrong with how Apple supports the tag. |
| 08:18:01 | sayocean | library |
| 08:18:02 | midkay | i've only had that problem when the artist tag is missing.. |
| 08:18:11 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: This is really something you should be asking Apple, as we're Rockbox, a very very very different style of group |
| 08:18:11 | midkay | it needs to be tagged on the iPod of course.. |
| 08:18:13 | sayocean | anyway to rebuild the itunes.db ? |
| 08:18:27 | Galois | by the way, this is one of the reasons I hate itunes: it adds an unwelcome layer of complexity between the keyboard and your files |
| 08:18:28 | midkay | just go to 'iPod' in iTunes, and retag it directly on the iPod. |
| 08:18:39 | sayocean | grr. |
| 08:18:41 | sayocean | did that |
| 08:18:52 | Galois | with a file-browser approach, there's no question as to whether you have the right tag or not |
| 08:18:56 | midkay | then it'd work, something didn't happen right.. |
| 08:19:02 | infamis | see what the tags actually are using winamp or something |
| 08:19:58 | sayocean | anyone here use Ephod ? |
| 08:20:28 | dj-fu | the whole iTunesDB system is shite |
| 08:20:32 | dj-fu | I'm glad to be rid of my iPod software |
| 08:20:37 | infamis | I used to back in '02 |
| 08:20:46 | infamis | ..use ephpod |
| 08:21:02 | sayocean | ok |
| 08:21:04 | sayocean | got it to work |
| 08:21:08 | sayocean | but i had to go to itunes |
| 08:21:13 | sayocean | then retag it |
| 08:21:24 | sayocean | it didnt have anything in for "album" |
| 08:21:28 | sayocean | after i put "misc" it shows up now |
| 08:21:32 | sayocean | but wtf |
| 08:21:42 | sayocean | that was retarded |
| 08:21:43 | Paul_The_Nerd | It's their software. |
| 08:21:50 | Paul_The_Nerd | And it's you who's choosing to still use it. |
| 08:23:04 | dj-fu | nod |
| 08:23:30 | sayocean | i did notice |
| 08:23:40 | sayocean | that the new bleeding edges weren't "pausing" as much |
| 08:24:21 | Paul_The_Nerd | What kind of iPod do you have again, and what bitrate files were you using? |
| 08:24:38 | sayocean | 5G (video) |
| 08:24:46 | sayocean | mostly 192k and VBR |
| 08:25:11 | Paul_The_Nerd | And you've been using a WPS that doesn't show a peakmeter? |
| 08:25:27 | sayocean | yep |
| 08:25:32 | sayocean | well not anymor |
| 08:25:35 | Paul_The_Nerd | And you have the equalizer set to "off" |
| 08:25:35 | sayocean | not after you told me not to |
| 08:25:41 | sayocean | ive been using iAmp |
| 08:25:50 | sayocean | with equalizer, crossfeed, crossfade off |
| 08:25:53 | Paul_The_Nerd | Hm |
| 08:26:02 | Paul_The_Nerd | That's odd, because most people don't get pausing with it like that. |
| 08:26:20 | sayocean | no no, what im saying is, compared to like 5 days ago, the pausing has stopped more or less |
| 08:26:25 | sayocean | even on the "info/credits' page |
| 08:26:33 | infamis | We need a karma lookalike wps....anybody? |
| 08:26:46 | Paul_The_Nerd | Well "Has stopped more or less" is quite different from "not as much" |
| 08:27:00 | Paul_The_Nerd | Does it do pausing while in the WPS? |
| 08:27:04 | sayocean | nope |
| 08:27:14 | Paul_The_Nerd | So, then why are you using the Apple OS? |
| 08:27:19 | Paul_The_Nerd | I thought the pausing was the big thing for you |

| 08:27:23 | sayocean | only happened once so far with the new CVS |
| 08:27:32 | sayocean | and that was when i was changing the background color |
| 08:27:44 | Paul_The_Nerd | Which isn't "In the WPS" really |
| 08:28:00 | sayocean | cause itd be a bitch to transfer all 50+ gigs i already have on my ipod via itunes back to my PC, and back to ipod for rockbox again |
| 08:28:02 | infamis | Pausing happens for me when there's a lot of scrolling too of the artist/title/etc.. |
| 08:28:12 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: Why not use TagCache? |
| 08:28:26 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: Also... that's "Start transfer, go to sleep, wake up, transfer finished." |
| 08:28:29 | sayocean | does tagcache update itself everytime i add new stuff? |
| 08:28:42 | sayocean | i have 1.4 gigs left on my pc |
| 08:28:46 | sayocean | its not happening |
| 08:28:57 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: You deleted the files from your PC after transferring them to the iPod? |
| 08:29:23 | Paul_The_Nerd | And yes, TagCache should automatically update when you add things. |
| 08:29:32 | Angel_of_Death | Paul_The_Nerd, just the person i was hoping would be on |
| 08:29:32 | sayocean | paul yes i did, delete them |
| 08:29:35 | midkay | Paul_The_Nerd, really? |
| 08:29:44 | Paul_The_Nerd | midkay: It's *supposed* to at least. |
| 08:29:47 | sayocean | also, when i do Tag Cache |
| 08:29:59 | Paul_The_Nerd | midkay: Adding is supposed to work. Removing is not yet. At least, that's what I thought. |
| 08:30:02 | sayocean | and its done and i browse, it will say "searching, found (0)" |
| 08:30:04 | sayocean | which is odd |
| 08:30:06 | Paul_The_Nerd | Angel_of_Death: Something I can help you with? |
| 08:30:10 | Angel_of_Death | Paul_The_Nerd, now i already know the answer... but maybe u know some ghetto way to do this |
| 08:30:13 | midkay | Paul_The_Nerd, i had no idea that code was in place. i thought it had to be updated manually each time.. it'd be rescanning on boot then or something? |
| 08:30:25 | Angel_of_Death | Paul_The_Nerd, can i make smart playlist, aka top 25 most played and such with RB |
| 08:30:26 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: You did shut down properly, and reboot first? |
| 08:30:39 | Paul_The_Nerd | midkay: I believe so, yes. Not 100% certain, but I think so. |
| 08:30:43 | Galois | infamis: I'm not sure it is yet possible to have a Karma lookalike WPS |
| 08:30:47 | midkay | hmm. |
| 08:30:55 | midkay | interesting :) |
| 08:31:03 | Paul_The_Nerd | Angel_of_Death: Not at the moment. The facilities to do that have been removed, but expect them to return HOPEFULLY with 3.1 |
| 08:31:05 | sayocean | shutdown properly as in hold down on PLAY button |
| 08:31:10 | Paul_The_Nerd | Yes |
| 08:31:13 | sayocean | yep |
| 08:31:15 | Angel_of_Death | whens 3.1 expected |
| 08:31:16 | infamis | Galois: how do you figure? |
| 08:31:22 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: And your TagCache is empty? |
| 08:31:24 | Galois | the Karma has two useful WPS displays, one shows you six songs in the playlist, and the other shows you an oscope trace of the audio |
| 08:31:33 | sayocean | its not |
| 08:31:38 | sayocean | all the artists, albums show up |
| 08:31:39 | sayocean | BUT |
| 08:31:41 | Galois | right now rockbox has no built in facilities for showing playlists or oscopes in the WPS |
| 08:31:54 | sayocean | it also says "searching.found (0)" or something liek that right before it lists the artists or albums |
| 08:32:13 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: Do your files have Genre tags? |
| 08:32:14 | Angel_of_Death | Paul_The_Nerd, u know of the top of ur head when 3.1 is expected |
| 08:32:15 | infamis | I usually just used the default progress indicator....just something nice & simple |
| 08:32:29 | midkay | november-ish.. |
| 08:32:40 | infamis | all the other wps's look too graphicy (even if it is all text) |
| 08:32:43 | Angel_of_Death | dang man by the time rockbox is *released* for 5g ipod..... its gonna be so good lol.... i mean it already makes apple firmware look like childs play |
| 08:32:45 | sayocean | paul, some do, some dont |
| 08:32:46 | Paul_The_Nerd | Angel_of_Death: It's scheduled for November. The RuntimeDB features may or may not be in it. They may be earlier, or later. It's just *hoped* they will. |
| 08:33:07 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: Well, is there a Genres entry inside of tagcache for you? |
| 08:33:08 | Angel_of_Death | i hope they will will be before |
| 08:33:19 | Angel_of_Death | thats one thing i liked about apple |
| 08:33:21 | sayocean | paul what do ya mean? |
| 08:33:22 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: I'm just thinking something in the tagcache.config is going wrong. But I don't really know |
| 08:33:32 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: Is there a Genres entry beside Artists and Albums |
| 08:33:40 | sayocean | yeh |
| 08:33:54 | midkay | i think my efforts will be futile, but - does anyone available know much about rockbox's menu code? anyone watching from the shadows? :) |
| 08:34:34 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: Wait, is the "searching.found (0)" displayed on the screen, or are you talking about something that flashes and is gone? |
| 08:35:23 | sayocean | it flashes for a sec and its gone. then it lists all the artists |
| 08:35:26 | sayocean | or albums |
| 08:35:29 | sayocean | if i choose albums |
| 08:35:31 | Paul_The_Nerd | See, you need to be explicit. |
| 08:35:35 | Paul_The_Nerd | You said that it displays "before" them |
| 08:35:47 | Paul_The_Nerd | But you never said it clears. |
| 08:35:55 | Paul_The_Nerd | In a list, "before" is above. |
| 08:36:22 | Paul_The_Nerd | It shows .found (0) because when it starts searching it has not yet found any. With long lists, you may actually see that number increase briefly as it goes. |
| 08:36:44 | sayocean | huh? i said "[01:32] <sayocean> it also says "searching.found (0)" or something liek that right before it lists the artists or albums" |
| 08:36:52 | Paul_The_Nerd | Yes |
| 08:36:52 | sayocean | 'right before' |
| 08:36:54 | Paul_The_Nerd | Before it lists |
| 08:36:57 | Paul_The_Nerd | You did not say it clears |
| 08:36:57 | sayocean | right |
| 08:37:04 | sayocean | my bad |
| 08:37:09 | sayocean | is that normal? |
| 08:37:24 | Paul_The_Nerd | "Before it lists" could very easily mean "Above the list" as any text above a list is before it on the screen |
| 08:37:42 | sayocean | i have 50+ gigs.. so i have tons of artists.. then why wouldnt it say foudn (250) |
| 08:37:44 | sayocean | or something like that? |
| 08:38:14 | Paul_The_Nerd | Because it disappears too quickly? |
| 08:38:19 | sayocean | hmm |
| 08:38:20 | sayocean | maybe |
| 08:38:53 | Paul_The_Nerd | "maybe" |
| 08:39:28 | Paul_The_Nerd | Try it with a particularly long list. |
| 08:39:31 | Paul_The_Nerd | Like All Songs |
| 08:39:39 | Paul_The_Nerd | See if it visibly increases before it clars |
| 08:39:41 | Paul_The_Nerd | clears |
| 08:39:59 | scorche | midkay: got some 2300 mAh batteries...works fine...still trying to figure out what went wrong with the other ones |
| 08:40:34 | midkay | scorche, good that they work but still odd, yeah. surely other people have used 2400mAh ones.. but i've never heard of such a thing happening like your problem. |
| 08:40:50 | | Join spitball [0] (n=d31ea12a@labb.contactor.se) |
| 08:41:10 | scorche | it made me sad that they worked though |
| 08:41:16 | scorche | i wanted to hear the beeping again |
| 08:41:31 | midkay | haha. keep a set of the 2400mAh ones around! :) |
| 08:41:36 | midkay | for your beeping pleasure.. |
| 08:41:56 | scorche | i do, but they only beeped that once....it gets even odder =P |
| 08:42:14 | sayocean | paul |
| 08:42:20 | midkay | haha, whoa.. |
| 08:42:21 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: Que? |
| 08:42:27 | sayocean | when i shutdown the ipod while its updating tagcache, does it have to start it all over again? |
| 08:42:28 | scorche | indeed... |
| 08:42:57 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: I really couldn't say. I've not tested that one, and so far nobody's told me "Hey, it was updating, but I felt like shutting it off halfway through." |
| 08:43:33 | sayocean | ah fuck |
| 08:43:35 | sayocean | it just froze on me |
| 08:43:39 | sayocean | i guess thats another issue |
| 08:43:50 | sayocean | when you accidently press too many buttons/commands, it freezes up |
| 08:44:04 | Paul_The_Nerd | Hmm |
| 08:44:20 | scorche | now i have to figure out if blue, red, or pure white LCDs would look better |
| 08:44:29 | Paul_The_Nerd | I've never managed to freeze my ipod that way. |
| 08:44:44 | Paul_The_Nerd | In fact, the only time my ipod has ever frozen has been when the playback engine was being reworked this last week |
| 08:45:05 | sayocean | fack |
| 08:45:12 | sayocean | ive been browsing the rockbox forum |
| 08:45:15 | Paul_The_Nerd | And the Data Aborts when we were trying to get Doom and Voice working, but that doesn't qualify since that was "We know this doesn't work yet, let's start trying it not-working to find out where it fails" |
| 08:45:17 | scorche | only time i have had an ipod freeze on me, was when it was low on batteries..lol |
| 08:45:21 | sayocean | and the issuse that ive described are actually pretty common |
| 08:45:48 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: Which issue? Because I've literally read every post in the last 4 months, and nobody has described an "It freezes when I press a bunch of buttons" bug. |
| 08:46:01 | sayocean | let me link you |
| 08:46:07 | dj-fu | pwned by sarcasm |
| 08:46:15 | sayocean | who got pwnt? |
| 08:46:33 | * | Paul_The_Nerd waits for the link. |
| 08:46:51 | * | infamis plays jeopardy theme |
| 08:46:53 | * | sayocean looking for the link |
| 08:47:11 | Paul_The_Nerd | I thought you said it was pretty common |
| 08:47:20 | sayocean | it is |
| 08:47:22 | sayocean | hold on my friend |
| 08:47:50 | sayocean | "Problems i am having with this is that some things if i skip a song foward, the whole frimware freezes. Also, there is a high pitch glitchy sound in the beginning of the song. The stopping while playing mp3s still occur, but not as much as the older frimware that i tryed. " |
| 08:47:54 | sayocean | http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=3451.45 |
| 08:48:09 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: A) That has nothing to do with pressing multiple buttons at once |
| 08:48:18 | sayocean | i didnt say all at once |
| 08:48:31 | Paul_The_Nerd | You said too quickly |
| 08:48:34 | sayocean | [01:44] <sayocean> when you accidently press too many buttons/commands, it freezes up |
| 08:48:38 | sayocean | nope |
| 08:48:47 | sayocean | i said too many buttons slash commands |
| 08:48:50 | Paul_The_Nerd | Okay |
| 08:48:53 | Paul_The_Nerd | And do you mean "Ever" |
| 08:48:58 | Paul_The_Nerd | Or do you mean within a short period of time? |
| 08:49:07 | sayocean | within a short period of time |
| 08:49:10 | Paul_The_Nerd | Then it's quickly |
| 08:49:19 | Paul_The_Nerd | Now, if you read that post |
| 08:49:23 | Paul_The_Nerd | He describes "skipping forward" |
| 08:49:26 | Paul_The_Nerd | Which is in fact ONE button press |
| 08:49:32 | sayocean | no quickly would be as if i was playing a video game that requires me punching the buttons like a maniac |
| 08:49:34 | Paul_The_Nerd | The reason his bug occurred was a problem with the playback engine itself |
| 08:49:40 | Paul_The_Nerd | A problem that in fact does not exist in the CVS build |
| 08:49:42 | sayocean | what im talking about is, pressing pause, to pause the song |
| 08:49:49 | sayocean | then pressing the select button |
| 08:49:54 | sayocean | then trying to go back to the song |
| 08:50:36 | Paul_The_Nerd | Okay, and what does that have to do with his bug? |
| 08:50:52 | sayocean | Problems i am having with this is that some things if i skip a song foward, the whole frimware freezes. |
| 08:51:08 | Paul_The_Nerd | But you just described Pause->Select->Play |
| 08:51:21 | sayocean | it doesnt have to be "Pause , Select, Play" |
| 08:51:36 | Paul_The_Nerd | Yes, but see his bug we've already established is a playback system issue |
| 08:51:39 | sayocean | in general, too many commands in a short period of time (call it "quickly" if you want to), it willf reeze it up |
| 08:51:41 | Paul_The_Nerd | That's not in the new CVS version |
| 08:51:55 | sayocean | well it just happened to me a few mins ago |
| 08:52:05 | Paul_The_Nerd | So, I would again ask that you show me evidence of this "Pressing too many buttons in a short to moderate amount of time" bug is common in the forums |
| 08:52:17 | sayocean | "Also, there is a high pitch glitchy sound in the beginning of the song. The stopping while playing mp3s still occur, but not as much as the older frimware that i tryed. " |
| 08:52:26 | sayocean | and that one just sums it all up. its not my ipod at all |
| 08:52:32 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: That bug too is fixed |
| 08:52:32 | sayocean | its a common issue |
| 08:52:39 | sayocean | http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=3451.0 |
| 08:52:47 | sayocean | just read that forum from first to last |
| 08:52:50 | sayocean | it might be fixed |
| 08:53:08 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: That thread is quite full of bugs |
| 08:53:08 | sayocean | but what im saying is, you thought that the bugs/problems might have been an isolated issue with just my ipod, but its not |
| 08:53:17 | scorche | ... |
| 08:53:31 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: I told you I've literally read every post in the last 4 months. I was not joking |
| 08:53:36 | Paul_The_Nerd | I have read every post in that thread. |
| 08:53:46 | sayocean | lol |
| 08:53:47 | sayocean | k |
| 08:54:00 | Paul_The_Nerd | There are many different bugs covered in that thread |
| 08:54:06 | Paul_The_Nerd | The one you linked me to was fixed 2 days ago |
| 08:54:12 | sayocean | yeh i noticed |
| 08:54:20 | sayocean | im not saying that the bugs are still around |
| 08:54:21 | Paul_The_Nerd | So, the problem you are having NOW is not Common |
| 08:54:25 | sayocean | except maybe the freezing up one |
| 08:54:29 | infamis | Round 2??? |
| 08:54:31 | sayocean | i totally understand that |
| 08:54:32 | Angel_of_Death | Paul_The_Nerd, another question |
| 08:54:42 | scorche | popcorn anyone? |
| 08:54:42 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: Then why did you say that YOUR problem was common in the forums? |
| 08:54:42 | sayocean | my point wasn't to argue that the bugs are still prevalent |
| 08:54:56 | Paul_The_Nerd | Angel_of_Death: What can I do for ye? |
| 08:54:56 | | Quit Kyomi () |
| 08:55:03 | sayocean | to prove my point that the bugs werent JUST for my ipod and not on other 5Gs |
| 08:55:05 | Angel_of_Death | while im playing music, if i scroll thru my artist folder at a decent speed my music stops or skips |
| 08:55:10 | Angel_of_Death | untill i stop scrolling |
| 08:55:13 | sayocean | angel, thats what happens to me too |
| 08:55:18 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: But you just admitted that the problem you have ISN'T that one. |
| 08:55:18 | sayocean | or at least it used to |
| 08:55:20 | Angel_of_Death | brother says this is due to the buffer running out |
| 08:55:24 | Angel_of_Death | is there a way to prevent this? |
| 08:55:28 | sayocean | copy paste paul ? |
| 08:55:30 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: You disproved your own point. |
| 08:55:44 | Paul_The_Nerd | (1:54:18 AM) sayocean: i totally understand that |
| 08:55:51 | Paul_The_Nerd | I assume that was in response to the last statement I made before it? |
| 08:55:55 | sayocean | 1) point was , the bugs i used to have weren't just on my ipod |
| 08:55:58 | VoltageX | well I've mastered helloworld, now what should I try :P |
| 08:56:05 | sayocean | 2) the bug i have left on my ipod = freezing up on me |
| 08:56:07 | sayocean | those were my 2 poitns |
| 08:56:08 | sayocean | points |
| 08:56:11 | sayocean | nothing else |
| 08:56:20 | Angel_of_Death | well Paul_The_Nerd is there a way to increase the buffer |
| 08:56:24 | sayocean | [01:54] <Paul_The_Nerd> So, the problem you are having NOW is not Common |
| 08:56:25 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: Yeah. Except you said that "and the issuse that ive described are actually pretty common" |
| 08:56:29 | Angel_of_Death | so that it doesnt skip or stop |
| 08:57:01 | sayocean | and ur right, the issues that i did describe a few days ago such as pausing up when scrolling and making screeching noises for the first second when i skip songs |
| 08:57:08 | Paul_The_Nerd | Angel_of_Death: Skipping is most often caused by the CPU not keeping up. Pick a WPS without peakmeters, and don't use the equalizer. The buffer size doesn't matter usually, because if the CPU can't keep 1k filled, it certainly can't keep 5mb or more filled |
| 08:57:25 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: You weren't talkign about the days ago issues though. You were talking about issues you had now. |
| 08:57:37 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: There's no point in complaining NOW about bugs that no longer exist. |
| 08:57:56 | Angel_of_Death | ok guess ill stick with it then, cause i love my waps and my meters And my bass =) lol |
| 08:57:57 | Paul_The_Nerd | You said specifically that there's an issue where you press accidentally too many buttons |
| 08:57:58 | sayocean | lol but i wasnt complaining, i was only complaining about the FREEZING up issue |
| 08:58:00 | sayocean | nothing else |
| 08:58:02 | Angel_of_Death | thanks for the advise tho |
| 08:58:03 | Paul_The_Nerd | Then your next statement was that it was common |
| 08:58:15 | sayocean | yeh it was a TOTALLY separate statement |
| 08:58:21 | Paul_The_Nerd | How could anyone infer that? |
| 08:58:27 | sayocean | going back to the issues i had few days ago |
| 08:58:30 | Angel_of_Death | OH and another thing Paul_The_Nerd theres a way to page down on the 5g correct? so u dont have to scroll? |
| 08:59:06 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: If you complain about a problem, then you say "and the issuse that ive described are actually pretty common" without describing ANY other issues, one can only assume the issues you refer to are the most recently described ones. |
| 08:59:34 | sayocean | well my bad on not being so explicit |
| 08:59:35 | Paul_The_Nerd | Angel_of_Death: I don't believe there is a page down at the moment, but I'm not sure. |

Tell me, what clues in your conversation implicitly told a normal human that you had switched topics from "bugs that bother me now" to "Problems I had several days ago, but have not yet talked about today?" |
| 09:00:43 | sayocean | do i need to get down on my knees and say 'sorry' or something? |
| 09:01:04 | sayocean | i think we all get the point that the FAULT is on me for not being so explicit |
| 09:01:13 | Paul_The_Nerd | Well, a "I'll try to be clearer next time" would be nice. |
| 09:01:20 | Angel_of_Death | hmmmmmmm |
| 09:01:24 | Angel_of_Death | gah |

| 09:03:39 | Angel_of_Death | Paul_The_Nerd, Are you aware of the button button combo play + up / down which scrolls by pages? |
| 09:03:41 | sayocean | im guessing tagcache is done once u can't hear the HD spin |
| 09:03:46 | Angel_of_Death | he must have been talking not about the 5g |
| 09:03:50 | sayocean | how do i do that paul? |
| 09:03:57 | Paul_The_Nerd | Angel_of_Death: I'm aware of the combo, but wasn't aware you could do it properly on Ipod |
| 09:04:15 | Angel_of_Death | sayocean, ive got 14gb used on my iPod |
| 09:04:18 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: Go into the menu, choose Info, then Debug, then TagCache Status |

| 09:05:14 | Paul_The_Nerd | Hm |
| 09:05:24 | Paul_The_Nerd | Well, perhaps the status doesn't work right on iPods yet, or has some other issue |
| 09:05:33 | Paul_The_Nerd | Well, when the virtual HD LED stops blinking |
| 09:05:45 | sayocean | u figure, with 50+ gigs , it would take a few mins, is that correct? |
| 09:05:57 | sayocean | paul, theres a virtual HD LED in the ipod? |
| 09:06:00 | Angel_of_Death | well mines 14gb and took me a few seconds |
| 09:06:04 | Paul_The_Nerd | "virtual" is the key word |
| 09:06:06 | sayocean | oh right |
| 09:06:07 | Paul_The_Nerd | Up near the clock |
| 09:06:08 | Angel_of_Death | but iwouldnt be surpised if it took u much longer |

| 09:08:43 | BHSPitLappy | by force |
| 09:08:50 | dj-fu | that's a good idea, BHSPitLappy |
| 09:08:59 | midkay | objection: most combos are needed in one plugin or another.. |
| 09:09:02 | Angel_of_Death | why would u use itunes |
| 09:09:23 | sayocean | good point |
| 09:09:36 | Slasheri | sayocean: auto updating works only if dircache is enabled and tagcache is loaded to ram |
| 09:09:43 | sayocean | is there a way to view both ID3 tags AND mp3s u have on ur F: |
| 09:10:06 | Angel_of_Death | yes, load to ram |
| 09:10:13 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: It *should* update each time. But that may not be working. If it isn't, a forced update should work anyway |
| 09:10:41 | Angel_of_Death | oh, i have one new GMAIL |
| 09:10:55 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: Why don't you just switch back to File View when you need to see files? |
| 09:11:13 | sayocean | i could |
| 09:11:14 | sayocean | i suppose |
| 09:11:22 | Angel_of_Death | just hold menu now with bleeding edge |
| 09:11:35 | Angel_of_Death | then click the play button the amount of times u need to |
| 09:12:11 | sayocean | angel, what is this 'button combo ' u speak of |
| 09:12:25 | Angel_of_Death | hold menu |
| 09:12:31 | Angel_of_Death | and a screen should pop up |
| 09:12:40 | Angel_of_Death | alowing u to change shuffle, repeat, and file view easily |
| 09:12:46 | sayocean | right.. |
| 09:12:52 | sayocean | thats the button combo? |
| 09:13:00 | Angel_of_Death | hold menu when not in the now playing screen |
| 09:13:05 | | Quit dj-fu ("Leaving") |
| 09:13:07 | Angel_of_Death | might work in the now playing screen, havent tried |

| 09:14:28 | infamis | it works in the wps |
| 09:14:55 | Angel_of_Death | infamis, i never said it wasnt feesible |
| 09:15:04 | sayocean | wtf |
| 09:15:12 | sayocean | it only shows artists A through C |
| 09:15:19 | sayocean | and when i get down to the end of C, therse an Arrow |
| 09:15:19 | Angel_of_Death | infamis, i said i would like it if it was changed some |
| 09:15:46 | infamis | you lost me...that's what I get for reading the last few lines in the channel |
| 09:16:07 | Angel_of_Death | lol |
| 09:16:12 | Angel_of_Death | i just read ur comment on the tracker |
| 09:16:27 | infamis | about what |
| 09:16:38 | Angel_of_Death | about the playlist thing |
| 09:16:50 | sayocean | angel, do you know how to use the "search by Artists" ? |
| 09:16:56 | infamis | firefox: new tab! go! |
| 09:17:16 | Angel_of_Death | ummm |
| 09:17:20 | Angel_of_Death | dont use it |
| 09:18:04 | sayocean | so if you wanted to play an artist like Zebrahead, u just scroll down for 10 mins??? |
| 09:18:15 | infamis | Angel_of_Death: ahh, now I get you...I guess feesible was the wrong word |
| 09:18:25 | ashridah | sayocean: well, i'd be more inclined to scroll up like 3 |
| 09:18:27 | ashridah | but anyway :) |
| 09:18:28 | infamis | I have a horrible vocabulary |
| 09:18:31 | Angel_of_Death | yer lol |
| 09:18:32 | Angel_of_Death | its ok |
| 09:19:09 | infamis | You don't know how hard I have to catch myself from describing constantly using the word 'like' |

| 09:21:28 | *** | Saving seen data "./dancer.seen" |
| 09:21:30 | infamis | what's wrong? |
| 09:21:37 | infamis | just wake up? |
| 09:21:42 | sayocean | lol |
| 09:21:42 | sayocean | no |
| 09:21:49 | sayocean | going from A to Z in the artists |
| 09:21:55 | sayocean | and the scrolling is sooo slow |
| 09:21:57 | sayocean | unlike apple |
| 09:22:10 | ashridah | sayocean: the scrolling should be able to accelerate. |
| 09:22:36 | infamis | Easy solution: listen to a less variety of artists :) |
| 09:22:39 | Angel_of_Death | lol |
| 09:22:42 | sayocean | is it an option as? |
| 09:22:42 | Angel_of_Death | weve been over this |
| 09:22:48 | Angel_of_Death | no its not |
| 09:22:50 | Angel_of_Death | not yet |
| 09:22:52 | ashridah | if it doesn't, it's a bug in the interface for the tag cache, because it's configurable for the file tree |
| 09:23:15 | * | ashridah notes that tagcache's interface needs work, natch |
| 09:23:44 | amiconn | crap |
| 09:23:59 | Angel_of_Death | where! i dont see crap |
| 09:24:51 | amiconn | lostlogic: Another bug :( If you skip backward, allow a track to start, and then repeatedly skip backwards within the first few seconds, the wps keep going back in your tracks, but the playing track stays the same (!) |
| 09:25:05 | sayocean | UGH |
| 09:25:09 | sayocean | time to go back to apple |
| 09:25:10 | | Quit spitball ("CGI:IRC (EOF)") |
| 09:25:16 | amiconn | I managed it going back from track 7 to track 3 while still playing track 7 (!!) |
| 09:25:24 | Angel_of_Death | lol sayocean are u serious? |
| 09:25:37 | amiconn | sayocean: I can't, and won't, never go 'back' to apple |
| 09:25:43 | sayocean | [01:58] <Angel_of_Death> OH and another thing Paul_The_Nerd theres a way to page down on the 5g correct? so u dont have to scroll? |
| 09:25:48 | Angel_of_Death | apple is dead to me |
| 09:25:49 | Angel_of_Death | lol |
| 09:25:50 | sayocean | is there a way to page down instead of scrolling? |
| 09:25:54 | ashridah | amiconn: you won't "never" go back to apple? |
| 09:25:58 | ashridah | wee, double negative |
| 09:26:09 | Angel_of_Death | ummm not on 5g that we are aware of |
| 09:26:10 | amiconn | blarb |
| 09:26:19 | Angel_of_Death | since the 5g doesnt have the right buttons lol |
| 09:26:22 | amiconn | -never |

| 09:26:57 | infamis | to me it does |
| 09:27:17 | Paul_The_Nerd | It just means that in the future, your action will not be to "never go back" |
| 09:27:41 | Paul_The_Nerd | ;-) |
| 09:27:50 | Angel_of_Death | double negative! |
| 09:28:15 | infamis | to not go back but not do that only leaves one option |

| 09:29:16 | infamis | not 1 is not equal to 2, but not true is equal to false |
| 09:29:21 | * | amiconn notices how a simple mistake can start a lengthy discussion |
| 09:29:22 | Paul_The_Nerd | Ah, but "not go back" and "never go back" are two different things. Never implies that at no time in the future will he go back. Fortunately to us, it never IS the future, so he can always still "Not go back now" |
| 09:29:47 | sayocean | paul |
| 09:29:53 | sayocean | got a question for you |
| 09:29:54 | Angel_of_Death | Paul_The_Nerd, let it go lol |
| 09:30:00 | * | Paul_The_Nerd is just having fun. |
| 09:30:05 | Paul_The_Nerd | What can I do for ya sayocean? |
| 09:30:12 | Angel_of_Death | whats the command to * what u say |
| 09:30:16 | Angel_of_Death | sorry noob alert lol |
| 09:30:19 | Paul_The_Nerd | /me |
| 09:30:26 | * | Angel_of_Death thinks |
| 09:30:29 | Angel_of_Death | cool |
| 09:30:31 | amiconn | Well, one point was that I can't go 'back' because I never really used the apple fw, and even can't, because I don't have itunes installed |
| 09:30:41 | sayocean | When i Browse my Artists, it displays A-M and stops.. and at the end of the last artist on M, Matchbox 20, theres an arrow ( ====> )... is there anyway to display N-Z ? |
| 09:30:46 | Paul_The_Nerd | amiconn: Are there any problems booting Apple OS on the Mini2g? |
| 09:30:49 | sayocean | i already reset my limit to the max |
| 09:30:53 | amiconn | I got my ipod for use with and hacking rockbox - only |
| 09:30:54 | Angel_of_Death | true dat, i installed iTunes months ago |
| 09:31:00 | * | infamis blames amiconn for starting this |
| 09:31:18 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: I can't answer that one. I've never had it stop like that with an arrow. |
| 09:31:25 | ashridah | it does for me too |
| 09:31:28 | ashridah | i presume it's currently a bug |
| 09:31:48 | ashridah | since while it looks like it's a "page next" arrow, it doesn't actually do what it should. |
| 09:31:54 | amiconn | The arrow is Slasheri's (non-working) attempt on chunked browsing |
| 09:32:00 | Paul_The_Nerd | Aaaah |
| 09:32:20 | ashridah | but yes. all hail the development cycle |
| 09:32:21 | sayocean | ash, so for now, we are shit outta luck? |
| 09:32:28 | sayocean | and we just have to use the search function? |
| 09:32:31 | ashridah | sayocean: the search stuff works for me. |
| 09:32:43 | amiconn | I would prefer seeing it replaced by true chunked browsing, like the old db code did |
| 09:32:44 | Slasheri | amiconn: and that will be fixed soon, i am just working with proper chunked browsing implementation |
| 09:32:56 | amiconn | nice :) |
| 09:33:21 | sayocean | ami, could you explain to me how to use the text entry |
| 09:33:33 | sayocean | its frustrating to say the least. |
| 09:33:37 | Paul_The_Nerd | I think the text entry is explained in the IpodFAQ |
| 09:33:42 | sayocean | it is |
| 09:33:52 | sayocean | but how do i move the cursor Below the separating line |
| 09:33:57 | sayocean | so i can select or delete |
| 09:34:26 | infamis | keeping going down |
| 09:34:27 | Paul_The_Nerd | You keep moving down until you're there? |
| 09:35:00 | sayocean | umm |
| 09:35:01 | sayocean | doesnt work |
| 09:35:21 | infamis | I just tried it... |
| 09:35:53 | amiconn | works here. |
| 09:35:59 | Paul_The_Nerd | sayocean: Works here on an ipod. |
| 09:36:12 | midkay | same for me. |
| 09:36:30 | infamis | 4 against 1 |
| 09:36:39 | sayocean | ok got it |
| 09:36:47 | Angel_of_Death | i would try it. |
| 09:36:53 | Angel_of_Death | but im stealing songs from the internet =) |
| 09:36:53 | sayocean | it works on mine too |
| 09:37:10 | sayocean | i just didnt realize the cursor itself doesnt show up when its below the line |
| 09:37:14 | midkay | the internet's going to want its songs back sooner or later, Angel_of_Death.. |
| 09:37:18 | midkay | stealing from the internet is not a good idea. |
| 09:37:28 | infamis | from the internet? the internets are gonna sue you |
| 09:37:44 | Angel_of_Death | naw |
| 09:38:14 | Angel_of_Death | i honestly dont know whats gonna happen to musicians if ppl pirate all their music |
| 09:38:20 | Angel_of_Death | they cant rely just on concerts lol |
| 09:38:53 | infamis | I doubt it would ever come to that...everyone downloading & no more buying |
| 09:39:06 | infamis | I download a lot but I also buy a lot |
| 09:39:21 | midkay | Angel_of_Death, so you're worried about musicians going out of business from having their music pirated, while *you're* doing it yourself? |
| 09:39:28 | sayocean | ok |
| 09:39:31 | sayocean | g/ntie everyone |
| 09:39:33 | Angel_of_Death | i only download now, i mean if i had money to spend i would buy the cd's of the artists i wanted to support tho |
| 09:39:36 | sayocean | thanks for your help paul |
| 09:39:59 | Angel_of_Death | midkay, yep basically :P |
| 09:40:22 | midkay | Angel_of_Death, convincing argument.. ah, and the "i'd do the right thing if i could" excuse, nice choice :) |
| 09:40:28 | Angel_of_Death | i mean downloading comes with its prices anyways, spyware lol |

| 09:41:03 | midkay | let me guess, you're still using limewire/kazaa/morpheus/something even older? |
| 09:41:06 | Angel_of_Death | its like 10cents a song there |
| 09:41:17 | Angel_of_Death | limewire. |
| 09:41:42 | Angel_of_Death | i'de say ive only paid for like a 3rd of my music tho |
| 09:41:56 | infamis | I couldn't just buy _one_ song...even if it was cheap as hell... |

| 09:42:08 | Angel_of_Death | albums and such |
| 09:42:12 | sayocean | slasheri |
| 09:42:13 | sayocean | question |
| 09:42:14 | Angel_of_Death | and u can pick the quality u want |
| 09:42:18 | Angel_of_Death | not like shitty itunes |
| 09:42:19 | sayocean | where can i find the "dircache" option? |
| 09:42:23 | Angel_of_Death | where its a dollar a song |
| 09:42:54 | midkay | general settings - system - disk - dir cache. |
| 09:42:59 | Angel_of_Death | actually i use Bit torrent sometimes for music to, rarely tho... only when its like all the songs that artist has ever released, but besides that its limewire |
| 09:43:03 | Angel_of_Death | anyways back to rockbox |
| 09:43:05 | midkay | although if you want to wait for Slasheri's answer.. feel free. |
| 09:43:07 | Slasheri | yep, there it is |
| 09:43:15 | midkay | surely none of us could manage to answer something that tough :) |
| 09:43:22 | Slasheri | =) |
| 09:43:28 | midkay | sayocean, i'd strongly suggest going through all the options.. |
| 09:43:33 | infamis | I don't like buying downloaded stuff period...I'd rather buy the real physical object |
| 09:43:37 | midkay | you'll know where they are and get everything set up the way you want it.. |
| 09:43:38 | sayocean | thanks |
| 09:43:48 | sayocean | slash, another question |
| 09:44:01 | sayocean | so for the time being, theres a limit to how many artists A-Z can be displayed? |
| 09:44:06 | Angel_of_Death | i dont, not with cd's that way they are now lol |
| 09:44:08 | sayocean | on browse artists? |
| 09:44:19 | Angel_of_Death | lol i like that whole sony incident :P |
| 09:44:21 | Slasheri | sayocean: currently yes, but that limit can be increased |
| 09:44:31 | Slasheri | you can increase the max files in a dir setting |
| 09:44:34 | Angel_of_Death | oh we didnt relize we were tracking information on ur computers with our recent cds |
| 09:44:43 | sayocean | to 10K correct? |
| 09:44:47 | | Part Paul_The_Nerd |
| 09:44:50 | Slasheri | correct |
| 09:44:52 | sayocean | even if i do that, it only displays A-Z :( |
| 09:44:58 | Slasheri | hmm |
| 09:44:59 | Galois | a normal CD is actually pretty good value for the money, especially used |
| 09:45:04 | sayocean | oh Nevermin |
| 09:45:05 | sayocean | d |
| 09:45:06 | sayocean | lol |
| 09:45:08 | Galois | the problem is that you can't hardly buy normal CDs anymore |
| 09:45:12 | sayocean | maybe restarting changed that |
| 09:45:14 | Angel_of_Death | yep |
| 09:45:22 | Galois | all you get now is this DRM'd copy protected fake CD |
| 09:45:31 | Angel_of_Death | and u cant do anything with them, well u can |
| 09:45:36 | Angel_of_Death | but its harder then it should be |
| 09:45:43 | Angel_of_Death | u bought it u should be able to do what u wish with it |
| 09:45:45 | Galois | that's the real crime, that the music industry is not even interested in helping out their legitimate customers |
| 09:46:18 | sayocean | slash, one last question |
| 09:46:30 | Slasheri | hehe, please just ask ;) |
| 09:46:33 | Angel_of_Death | it's dumb that they are doing that, because the people who dont buy still dont, and the people who rip it off there CD's still manage to |
| 09:46:34 | sayocean | is there a way to scroll up or down faster when browsing the artists or tracks? |
| 09:46:37 | Angel_of_Death | so its a wasted effort |
| 09:46:42 | | Join Arcainus [0] (n=geochi@196.25.195.66) |
| 09:46:47 | Galois | it's worse than wasted |

| 09:47:11 | sayocean | hmm |

| 09:47:33 | * | midkay wonders why questions many others could answer are still directed at Slasheri. hmm... *keeps quiet* |
| 09:47:35 | Angel_of_Death | sayocean, if u find a way to page scroll hit me up |
| 09:47:37 | Slasheri | might be, i don't have an ipod to try that.. |

| 09:47:48 | sayocean | midkay, can you help :) |
| 09:47:52 | sayocean | thanks slash btw |

| 09:48:04 | Angel_of_Death | oh em gee, paul left? |
| 09:48:10 | Angel_of_Death | wow thats a first that ive seen lol |
| 09:48:15 | midkay | infamis, so people just leech on to others that give them a bit of help, yes, i'm noticing that's how it works :) |
| 09:48:43 | infamis | pretty muc |

| 09:56:16 | HCl | what nonsense about the jeweled plugin |
| 09:56:42 | HCl | unless that guy has a *patent* on the type of game and gameplay, he cannot claim copyright. |
| 09:56:52 | HCl | none of their code nor graphics was copied. |
| 09:57:24 | HCl | patents are for protection of ideas |
| 09:57:32 | HCl | so unless he has a patent he's just totally wrong |
| 09:57:35 | Angel_of_Death | alright chaps |
| 09:57:41 | Angel_of_Death | HCI cool ur jets |
| 09:57:43 | Angel_of_Death | who cares |
| 09:57:46 | Angel_of_Death | nite |
| 09:57:47 | | Quit Angel_of_Death ("Leaving") |
| 09:58:00 | HCl | well |
| 09:58:11 | Galois | the US copyright system is just barely screwed up enough that a game creater might from time to time successfully obtain copyright protection for a set of gameplay rules |
| 09:58:13 | HCl | i care for bigheaded people who try to bash on an opensource project :) |
| 09:58:15 | infamis | wasn't it just a name change |
| 09:58:16 | scorche | HCI?....guess he doesnt know an acid when he sees one =( |
| 09:58:25 | Ave | woohay, I got a fresh ipod nano rockboxified here |
| 09:58:37 | Galois | didn't tetris get caught up in a big copyright (not patent) brouhaha? |
| 09:58:37 | Ave | everything went smoothly |
| 09:58:53 | HCl | as far as i know, in order to get copyright on an idea, you need a patent. |
| 09:59:04 | HCl | that's what patents are for |
| 09:59:38 | Galois | TTC has licensed the Tetris mark to a number of companies, but courts have not decided on the legality of tetromino games that do not use the Tetris name. |
| 09:59:40 | Galois | According to circulars available from the United States Library of Congress, a game cannot be copyrighted (only patented), which would invalidate much of TTC's copyright claim on the game |
| 09:59:56 | Galois | so, basically, HCl, you're right, but it hasn't stopped people from trying |
| 10:00 |
| 10:00:34 | bancus | Is there any way to shuffle the contents of a parent directory, rather than just a leaf directory? |
| 10:00:45 | HCl | Galois: *nodsnods* |
| 10:00:53 | Mikachu | you mean without shuffling the contents of the leaf directories? |
| 10:00:59 | Mikachu | in that case no |
| 10:01:09 | bancus | No. |
| 10:01:16 | Mikachu | you can shuffle your whole playlist |
| 10:01:19 | bancus | I have an Artist/Album structure |
| 10:01:27 | HCl | Galois: care to reply that on the thread in the dev mailing list to settle this matter? |
| 10:01:28 | bancus | say I want to shuffle all the albums by one artist |
| 10:01:40 | Mikachu | all tracks in any order? |
| 10:01:43 | bancus | Do I need to make them a playlist in order to shuffle them? |
| 10:01:45 | bancus | yeah |
| 10:01:47 | Galois | ugh, I'm not into mailing lists |
| 10:01:49 | Mikachu | just add the Artist directory recursivery |
| 10:01:50 | Mikachu | ly |

| 10:01:53 | bancus | how? |
| 10:01:53 | HCl | i'll do it then :P |
| 10:01:53 | Galois | I took that from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetris |

| 10:03:02 | bancus | yeah, it's similar on my X5 |
| 10:03:17 | bancus | hm |
| 10:03:24 | bancus | except it doesn't find the tracks |
| 10:03:37 | Mikachu | maybe you need to turn on the recursive option after all |

| 10:26:26 | Ave | well I'm impressed, I cna play back q7 vorbis AND play "frozen bubble" the same time, no hiccups |

| 10:26:47 | dj-fu | oh sweet. |
| 10:27:12 | Mikachu | you can look at the info->debug->view audio thread |
| 10:27:21 | Ave | btw should latin1 filenames be supported or is it only utf8? |
| 10:27:27 | Ave | I currently see 'ä' as blank |
| 10:27:30 | dj-fu | what should I be looking at |
| 10:27:32 | bancus | you can set the default |
| 10:27:32 | Mikachu | fat32 is utf8 |
| 10:27:36 | bancus | it's in the display settings |
| 10:27:41 | bancus | Mikachu: I'm pretty sure that's untrue. |
| 10:27:49 | Ave | I hope linux can do transparent file renaming then... |
| 10:27:51 | Mikachu | i think the codepage is only for tags but that could be wrong |
| 10:27:54 | dj-fu | fat32 needs utf8 for international haxinating |
| 10:27:55 | bancus | I believe you can use whatever 8-bit encoding with vfat. |
| 10:28:23 | Mikachu | you can, but it specifies some sort of unicode internally |
| 10:28:30 | Mikachu | Ave: man mount.vfat |
| 10:28:30 | bancus | Mikachu: the display settings changed my russian artist directories from blanks to squares |
| 10:28:39 | Mikachu | bancus: heh |
| 10:28:45 | bancus | changing it from latin-1 to utf8 |
| 10:28:47 | Ave | Mikachu: I knew about -o utf8 but |
| 10:28:53 | Mikachu | if you mount with -o utf8 and use utf8 in linux, it will work |
| 10:28:59 | Mikachu | that's all i can tell you with certainty |
| 10:29:07 | Ave | but I'm not using utf8 in linux :( |
| 10:29:15 | Ave | all my files are in latin1 |
| 10:29:17 | Mikachu | you can probably use some -o iocharset and stuff |
| 10:29:22 | bancus | eventually the whole world will use unicode, and this shit will stop being an issue |
| 10:29:27 | Mikachu | but i don't want to read the manpage for you :) |
| 10:29:31 | Ave | I even changed my ubuntu laptop to use latin1 instead of wtf-8 |
| 10:29:44 | Ave | yes I'll go read the manpage |
| 10:29:52 | Mikachu | it is hard to say ã“ã‚“ã«ã¡ã¯ in latin1 |
| 10:29:56 | Ave | indeed |
| 10:30:12 | Ave | fortunately I dont have a need to say that particular thing |
| 10:30:21 | bancus | or ÑпаÑибо |
| 10:30:40 | Ave | I ran into utf8 problems with legacy systems so I had to turn it off for now |
| 10:30:46 | bancus | I have music in English, Russian, German, Spanish and Italian |
| 10:30:50 | bancus | Unicode++ |
| 10:31:25 | Mikachu | my only problem is most linux apps use utf8 with id3v2.3 which is wrong, so i had to hack the tag reading in rockbox a bit |
| 10:32:03 | RedBreva | Can someone help me with a nooby style linux question? I have created a link to the simulator, but can't see how to add the −−background parameter (VMWare Rockbox Buils + KDE) |
| 10:32:35 | Galois | Ave: it doesn't matter what you use, eventually everybody else will be utf8 |
| 10:32:45 | Ave | yes I hope that too |
| 10:32:52 | Ave | but at the time there are some "kinks" |
| 10:33:09 | Ave | the more out of the box os's will use utf8, the better |
| 10:33:11 | Galois | and you can't just stick your head in the sand on the grounds that you personally only know english. Even the most die-hard rednecks need to know how to calculate the length of a string and basic shit |
| 10:33:24 | Mikachu | RedBreva: 'echo archosui −−background > file.sh; chmod +x file.sh' |
| 10:33:25 | bancus | oddly enough I find that the biggest users of non-utf8 encodings are people who use CJK and Russians |
| 10:33:35 | Galois | bancus: yeah, foreigners have the same problem in reverse |
| 10:33:43 | Ave | Galois: hold on, its not language issue, rather than that I can express ALL my langauges in latin1 |
| 10:33:47 | Mikachu | bancus: cjk in utf8 is 33% larger |
| 10:33:51 | Ave | not english native |
| 10:33:54 | Galois | again, it doesn't matter |
| 10:33:55 | RedBreva | Mikachu: Thanks, will try it |
| 10:34:03 | Galois | there are other languages that you don't know and will have to deal with |
| 10:34:08 | bancus | Mikachu: supposedly CJK in Unicode collapsed some glyphs thath they shouldn't have |
| 10:34:18 | Ave | yes I see exactly what you mean, and I dont wanna appear as utf8 opposer, its great for all.. |
| 10:34:30 | bancus | a lot of them still use BIG5 |
| 10:34:32 | Ave | of course it makes perfect sense to use utf8 for project like rb |
| 10:34:35 | | Quit Regor_ (Connection timed out) |
| 10:35:22 | Ave | and my so called problem is probably avoidable with mount options, so no harm done |
| 10:35:56 | Mikachu | Ave: you can always use convmv if you have to |

| 10:36:23 | Ave | thanks for the suggestions, I need to see thru all this, fairly new territory |

| 10:36:50 | Mikachu | i had to use convmv for some files i got from a macosx friend |
| 10:36:50 | Galois | well, almost works. FAT32 limitations still abound |
| 10:36:57 | Mikachu | they use NFD but rockbox and linux use NFC |
| 10:37:09 | Galois | like, you can't have / or : in filenames, so I just replace those with similar-looking unicode glyphs :P |
| 10:37:11 | * | Mikachu wonders if anyone knows what he's talking about |
| 10:37:11 | amiconn | A propos utf8 - text_editor.rock doesn't work properly with non-ascii chars :( |
| 10:37:27 | Mikachu | amiconn: i found that it works with utf8 but the normal text viewer recently doesn't |
| 10:37:37 | Galois | yea the text _viewer_ doesn't work with non-ascii |
| 10:37:44 | Mikachu | it used to though |
| 10:37:47 | Mikachu | but now it just shows crap |
| 10:37:55 | amiconn | Mikachu: The text viewer uses your default codepage setting. text_editor does not. |
| 10:38:11 | Mikachu | well, i've got that set to utf8 unless it changed back on me |
| 10:38:18 | Mikachu | which it very well might have... |
| 10:39:56 | amiconn | Well I've set my codepage to latin1, and the viewer shows everything like it should. |
| 10:40:37 | Galois | I set the default codepage to utf8 and still the viewer only partially works |
| 10:40:53 | Galois | many glyphs show ? in the text viewer (the same characters display fine in the file browser and WPS) |
| 10:41:08 | Mikachu | the text viewer doesn't line break multibyte correctly |
| 10:41:17 | Mikachu | there is apatch for that on the tracker |

| 10:44:33 | ashridah | amiconn: adding your favourite songs, typically. |
| 10:44:43 | ashridah | or adding them based on your current genre, etc |
| 10:45:10 | Mikachu | webguest50: i believe the databox plugin sort of might do what you want |
| 10:45:28 | Mikachu | it lets you create a search and save to a file |
| 10:45:41 | Mikachu | then you can just select that file to perform the search and create a playlist |

| 10:55:24 | webguest50 | if there a away to browse albums, or artists? |
| 10:55:30 | ashridah | webguest50: it builds a tag database on the fly, so it can display by artist, album, etc. |
| 10:55:36 | midkay | yes, that's... the entire premise of tagcache. |
| 10:55:46 | ashridah | you just need to wait until it's been generated, and then change the file view to Id3 mode |
| 10:55:56 | midkay | whether you find that useful or not is user-specific. |
| 10:56:47 | webguest50 | aha! I have to change the file view! I thought an additional view would appear somewhere |

| 11:00 |
| 11:00:06 | ashridah | what? |
| 11:00:19 | VoltageX | ashridah: to mess up linux |
| 11:00:26 | lostlogic | amiconn: I'm not able to reproduce that bug, do you have the large-ish commit that I made last night in when you create it? That should be impossible after that patch. |
| 11:00:47 | ashridah | VoltageX: that's only going to break anything that's got the sticky bit set, it won't actually break much else. |
| 11:00:48 | amiconn | Yes I have |
| 11:01:01 | ashridah | (ie, /tmp might be less functional than it was previously) |
| 11:01:08 | ashridah | it's certainly insecure, but that's much of a muchness |
| 11:01:14 | lostlogic | amiconn: weird. |
| 11:01:17 | VoltageX | lol |
| 11:01:21 | Mikachu | ashridah: it will break anything that checks for sane permissions |
| 11:01:23 | Mikachu | ashridah: like ssh |
| 11:01:30 | VoltageX | ashridah: rm -rf / will help then :D |
| 11:01:39 | ashridah | Mikachu: that's hardly 'breaking linux' |
| 11:02:40 | amiconn | lostlogic: It's fairly easy reproducable here (although getting more than one track difference isn't that easy to reproduce) |
| 11:03:34 | amiconn | If you're somewhere in a track, just skip back to the beginning, wait until it starts playing, then immediately skip back again. |
| 11:03:44 | VoltageX | now that I've mastered hello world on rockbox, what should I try? |
| 11:04:06 | VoltageX | ;) |
| 11:04:14 | amiconn | It shortly pauses, then continues playing the current track, but wps shows the previous track |
| 11:05:25 | lostlogic | amiconn: :( I can't get it |
| 11:05:34 | lostlogic | wait, just did. |
| 11:05:35 | VoltageX | amiconn: doing that on cvs a couple of weeks ago froze rockbox |
| 11:05:35 | lostlogic | ok |
| 11:06:14 | amiconn | lostlogic: This difference then even stays if you again skip back to the beginning of the track |
| 11:06:36 | lostlogic | yeah, it'll stay until there's a 'successful' track change. |
| 11:06:39 | amiconn | If you're skipping back or forth more than one track, it will eventually sync up again |
| 11:08:28 | amiconn | Ugh! Hard freeze... |
| 11:08:51 | lostlogic | Ugh! indeed, how to cause? |
| 11:08:59 | lostlogic | back skipping letting audio just start? |
| 11:09:11 | amiconn | This was just while playing a track (with the wps offset by -1) |
| 11:09:28 | amiconn | It seems it tried to buffer the next track since the current one was about to end |
| 11:09:47 | lostlogic | amiconn: yeah, that would make sense, if it thinks its playing a song its not. |
| 11:10:54 | amiconn | Let's see whether it's reproducable... |
| 11:10:58 | webguest50 | is there a way to still play with rockbox while the ipod is plugged in via usb? |
| 11:11:14 | lostlogic | webguest50: you have have it charging, but you cannot access it with your computer |
| 11:11:23 | lostlogic | webguest50: hold menu while inseting USB |
| 11:12:01 | lostlogic | webguest50: note, this charge mode is not right currently, and will take a very long time to charge, and if you have backlight always on, it will actually just slow battery drain, because we don't properly initialize USB charge mode. |
| 11:12:24 | webguest50 | so it can't be mounted as a hard drive while in the GUI? |

| 11:16:04 | lostlogic | amiconn: its definitely there, I've gotten it to happen twice now... I'd actually been afraid I had some unsafe button sequences with rapid seek->skip or seek->stop presses. |

| 11:34:17 | crashd | all those cases that keep getting thrown out ? ;) |
| 11:34:24 | crashd | im merely speaking theoretically |
| 11:34:57 | Galois | well with rockbox some of the devs are in the US, which is way harsher towards this kind of thing |

| 11:35:07 | HCl | well |
| 11:35:10 | amiconn | lostlogic: Now I got an even more strange effect. I managed to trigger the wps offset. Then I left the track playing (real track 4, displayed track 3). After ~1 minute, it switched to playing the end of track 11, and then continued with track 12, all while still displaying track 3 (!!!) |
| 11:35:19 | HCl | the dmca allows getting around copyprotection for portability uses |
| 11:35:25 | crashd | Galois: yeah, but they can only sue individuals |
| 11:35:29 | crashd | and if it isnt an official patch |
| 11:35:43 | lostlogic | amiconn: filebufused got corrupted, and the buffer filled in circles, causing mass stupidity. |
| 11:35:51 | Galois | the letter of the dmca allows it, but the courts have ruled the other way anyway |
| 11:35:58 | HCl | mhm.. |
| 11:36:02 | Galois | the interoperability clause of the DMCA is a big joke |
| 11:36:06 | HCl | dmca is evil. |
| 11:36:31 | crashd | the dmca is a joke |
| 11:36:37 | crashd | you guys are getting screwed |
| 11:36:47 | linuxstb | crashd: Apart from the possible legal problems, I think a lot of people take the view that DRM is evil and we shouldn't encourage users to use it by implementing it in Rockbox. |
| 11:36:52 | lostlogic | amiconn: the filebufused variable wants to die, but I haven't come up with a good scheme for killing it quite yet. |
| 11:37:00 | Galois | their interpretation seems to be (as far as I can tell): by making rockbox (or DeCSS, or whatever) free software, you give the user extra rights that they didn't have before under the closed system |
| 11:37:03 | crashd | linuxstb: i take the same view, i was just musing really |
| 11:37:11 | Galois | therefore you are not protected by the interoperability excuse |
| 11:37:40 | lostlogic | doing tracks as a linked list and tracking the file buf's status based on where tracks adn their codecs start might be a solution to it. |
| 11:37:42 | HCl | linuxstb: nice one, i second that. |
| 11:38:30 | lostlogic | amiconn: I will try to reproduce that bug with logf. |

| 11:50:57 | amiconn | Hmm, interesting. The PCF i2c pins in the H300 are shared with the serial eeprom i2c (which we don't use yet), and they are the same pins as for the seriall eeprom in the H1x0 |
| 11:51:23 | lostlogic | amiconn: your bug will only happen when the skip back would be on buffer, and it would wrap around the buffer, I think. |
| 11:52:08 | amiconn | So it should be possible to read the serial eeprom on H300 with no extra driver. Just a different device address... |
| 11:52:22 | * | amiconn is curious what's in there. |

| 11:53:57 | lostlogic | amiconn: blah, no I was wrong. I misread my log. Will be back with another wrong theory in a bit :-P |

| 11:55:11 | amiconn | We use half of it afaik |
| 11:55:32 | t0mas | amiconn: and how big is the iriver H1xx/H3xx eeprom? |
| 11:55:37 | amiconn | But rockbox has 2 settings parts, the first of which is rather small, and could be stored in the eeprom. |
| 11:56:05 | amiconn | This 2-part split is because the archos recorders have a 44-byte RAM in the RTC |
| 11:56:23 | t0mas | ah ok |
| 11:56:32 | t0mas | resume position might be handy to store in eeprom? |
| 11:56:36 | Ave | hm hey, so I copied files with -o utf8, file browser shows things incorrectly (ä missing) but playback screen shows em ok, default codepage is set to utf8, hm? |

| 12:11:26 | Galois | Ave: I always just unplugged the ipod before turning it on again |
| 12:18:04 | Ave | yes thats the thing, BUT, it it breaks a charging cycle, will it harm the battery life? |
| 12:18:24 | Ave | as is known, li+ batteries dont have the ni* memory effect but rather, limited set of charge cycles |
| 12:18:33 | Galois | even the regular firmware has this problem, you can't sync up with the computer without a spurious charging cycle |
| 12:18:56 | Ave | that makes panda sad |
| 12:19:13 | Ave | even so, would it be possible to add 'menu' trick to rockbox start as well |
| 12:19:25 | Ave | just like the event handler when its running and you plug in |
| 12:19:36 | Galois | I've never bothered to worry about it. The charging cycle degredation is not as severe as you fear, if you care for the battery properly in other respects |
| 12:19:57 | Ave | ok fair enough |

| 12:23:31 | Ave | apple sw changes the battery icon to reflect this |
| 12:23:55 | Galois | you don't get an animated charging icon do you? |
| 12:24:13 | Ave | not unless its in disk mode |
| 12:24:48 | linuxstb | Ave: Rockbox probably doesn't detect the charging status properly yet for the ipods - not much work has been done in that area so far. |
| 12:24:52 | Ave | if its charging and I'm playing a song the only thing I see is given wps bat indicator or status bar graph/text |
| 12:25:06 | Galois | well, it used to be possible to add #define HAVE_CHARGE_STATE in config-ipodnano.h and get charge status display |
| 12:25:38 | Galois | you need #define HAVE_CHARGING 1 and #define HAVE_CHARGE_STATE 1 |
| 12:25:42 | linuxstb | That's possibly just detecting the presence of a charger, rather than actual charging. |

| 12:26:13 | Galois | it does the following, when the charger is connected, it displays a left-to-right filling up battery icon |
| 12:26:25 | Galois | and when the battery is charged, it displays a back-and-forth trickle charge animation |
| 12:26:34 | Galois | basically, you know, it does what it should |
| 12:26:41 | Ave | ah |
| 12:26:54 | Ave | hm well that warrants a compilation right there |
| 12:27:32 | Galois | I'm not sure if the current CVS code still works with those two defines |
| 12:27:44 | Galois | it was working, like, a month ago |
| 12:27:46 | Ave | fails to compile or fails to run? |
| 12:28:00 | Galois | oh it runs fine, it just doesn't animate the icon anymore |
| 12:28:10 | Galois | I think. Again, I'm not sure. I haven't tried recently. |
| 12:28:16 | Ave | I'll do it |
| 12:28:41 | Ave | so, in order to upgrade all you have to do is replace rockbox.ipod and reset? |
| 12:28:52 | Galois | both rockbox.ipod and .rockbox/ |
| 12:29:05 | Ave | sounds like I'll lose settings |
| 12:29:07 | Galois | if you type make zip, it builds a rockbox.zip file that you can just unzip in the ipod root |
| 12:29:26 | Galois | you don't lose settings, not _usually_ (sometimes you do if the CVS code changes the right magic things) |

| 13:17:40 | crashd | well, it's in cvs, but it doesnt do anything, afaik |
| 13:18:18 | VoltageX | crashd: unfortunately I don't know enough to make it work myself, and I really want tracker music |
| 13:18:21 | pussfeller | yup linuxstb that did it |
| 13:18:38 | crashd | VoltageX: yeah, don't we all, i imagine at some point it'll be integrated as a codec, but right now it does nothing |
| 13:18:49 | VoltageX | crashd: and it's not looking good, because the cvs is 4-12 months old in that directory |
| 13:19:16 | crashd | VoltageX: well, that just means no one has touched it, it doesnt mean there's anything wrong with the libdumb build in there. |
| 13:19:30 | crashd | i assume whatever changes were made to make it integer only can easily be done against a newer source |
| 13:19:36 | crashd | but, as ive said, there's no integration |
| 13:20:00 | VoltageX | crashd: do you know how to put it into the makefile so it gets built? |
| 13:20:25 | ep0ch | linuxstb: hi, i'd like to try SID out on my ipod, is there a patch around i can use? |
| 13:20:32 | mooch | to backup the ipod, a "dd if=/dev/sde of=backup.ipod" should be sufficient, right? |
| 13:20:56 | linuxstb | ep0ch: It should be on the patch tracker soon. |
| 13:21:17 | ep0ch | ah cool |
| 13:21:34 | *** | Saving seen data "./dancer.seen" |
| 13:21:50 | linuxstb | mooch: Yes - but probably overkill. You really just need to backup the boot partition (/dev/sde1), and maybe the MBR (the first sector). |
| 13:22:12 | midkay | ep0ch / linuxstb - SID? |
| 13:22:26 | linuxstb | Yes, the author of "tinysid" has ported it to Rockbox. |
| 13:22:30 | crashd | SID, the c64 sound chip |
| 13:22:54 | VoltageX | linuxstb: ooh, first step for tracker music |
| 13:23:02 | midkay | ah, interesting.. |
| 13:23:05 | mooch | linuxstb: i want to backup my music too... dont want to have to transfer everything again... |
| 13:23:33 | linuxstb | mooch: If I was you, I would just backup your music by copying the contents of the FAT32 partition. But it's up to you. |
| 13:23:53 | mooch | linuxstb: the problem is that i need to "dd if=/dev/null of=/dev/ipod" because the file system claims to be locked and is mounted read-only under linux |
| 13:24:02 | mooch | linuxstb: no fat32 here, but hfs+ |
| 13:24:30 | linuxstb | Have you tried rebooting your Linux PC? |
| 13:24:40 | mooch | linuxstb: copying the content will not work if once i clean the hard disk it still claims it can only be mounted read-only |
| 13:24:47 | mooch | linuxstb: me? |
| 13:24:51 | linuxstb | Yes. |
| 13:24:56 | mooch | yup |
| 13:25:00 | mooch | several times |
| 13:25:13 | linuxstb | But if you just backup using "dd", then when you restore it, you will get an identical ipod. |
| 13:25:15 | mooch | i have tried mounting the ipod in several machines... |
| 13:25:16 | lostlogic | are there any codecs that do _not_ use the malloc buffer? |
| 13:25:43 | mooch | linuxstb: the problem is that once i clean it, i might have the problem that i cannot write to the disk under linux |
| 13:26:10 | mooch | linuxstb: so in that case, yes, I would like to restore it to the original state |
| 13:26:40 | linuxstb | Have you successfully written to the ipod in the past? IIUC, HFS+ write support is a relatively new Linux feature. |
| 13:27:02 | mooch | linuxstb: if once i rewrite the disk with /dev/null and then i can write, i can clean up the backup... i have all the music i need to put back |
| 13:27:30 | mooch | linuxstb: sure, but i unplugged once the ipod without unmounting it (i was in a rush) and after that it can only be written under macosx |
| 13:27:49 | mooch | well, must go to the radio program now... |

| 13:32:46 | crashd | real pain in the ass |
| 13:33:03 | VoltageX | will I break my player if I force the fm frequency on rockbox waaay too low? |
| 13:33:06 | amiconn | Most often this is caused by explorer |
| 13:33:08 | Galois | what you're looking at is windows suckage, not cygwin per se |
| 13:33:16 | amiconn | (@ crashd) |
| 13:33:21 | crashd | hehe, see, that's what i thought |
| 13:33:36 | crashd | however, it's fudged the perms so badly, even after a reinstall of windwows 12 months down the line, i cant delete an old cygwin install directory |
| 13:33:46 | amiconn | crashd: There's a workaround that avoids restarting windows: |
| 13:33:47 | crashd | and ive tried all sorts of ntfs permissions stuff to make it deletable |
| 13:33:53 | crashd | nonon, re INSTALLING |

| 13:39:08 | crashd | check the wiki, there's a page for 'dealing with patches' and 'compiling' |
| 13:39:21 | crashd | no, you'd have to do them seperately if you're just using 'patch' |

| 13:45:01 | VoltageX | doh it doesn't say |
| 13:45:06 | linuxstb | crashd: If you're talking about the SID patch, then I made the diff a couple of hours ago. It should apply cleanly. |
| 13:45:27 | crashd | well, the source tree ive got is from yesterday when i was toying with myth1's source build |
| 13:45:41 | amiconn | midkay: There's only one way to make sure: open a H300 and check |
| 13:45:43 | linuxstb | lostlogic made a change to the codec api - you need the latest CVS. |
| 13:45:44 | crashd | and it applies fine, but doesnt build, but i think that the source tree is a bit of a state |
| 13:45:49 | crashd | it'll have to wait |
| 13:45:52 | midkay | amiconn, you have an H300, right? >:) |

| 13:57:05 | amiconn | marevalo: I noticed only one temporary problem with the opening book addition: If you have a saved state from old chessbox, new chessbox with opening book gets confused |
| 13:57:06 | midkay | i hadn't seen it before.. |
| 13:57:23 | marevalo | amiconn: yep there are a couple of bugs there |
| 13:57:33 | amiconn | It doesn't crash, but displays wrong pieces, and some gfx trash. A simple reset fixes this |
| 13:57:40 | FutureCrash | I read that rockbox doesn't work on ipod g3 - are there any plans to get it working? |
| 13:57:45 | * | lostlogic looks around innocently I'd never change the API suddenly... |
| 13:58:29 | marevalo | amiconn: yep, I was thinking about adding some versioning to the save file, but don't really know as this is only useful for developer, what do you think? |
| 14:00 |
| 14:00:09 | marevalo | so what is the freeze policy about plugins? I was going to start mark2 on chessbox (menus and a whole lot batch of new options) |
| 14:00:22 | amiconn | Well, it would protect users from ugly experiences like this. |
| 14:00:43 | arse_ | is todays daily build faulty, on nano i get no file, codec failure and illeagal instruction errors? |
| 14:00:49 | amiconn | The freeze policy for plugins is less strict than for the core |

| 14:02:11 | VoltageX | yay PUG |
| 14:02:16 | midkay | arse_, probably.. i think april 3 is the last "should-be-working" build since lostlogic started revamping the playback code... expect new bugs and fixes daily for a little while or just stick with that build, i think :) |
| 14:02:57 | midkay | marevalo, that looked good, i went through it as you noticed, but haven't checked it since your "last update".. which i'll probably do tomorrow :) |
| 14:02:57 | FutureCrash | hmm... so, noone tried rockbox on ipod g3 already? |
| 14:03:09 | midkay | FutureCrash, um, it either doesn't work or barely.. |
| 14:03:14 | arse_ | midkay: ok, i'll try that, thanks |
| 14:03:27 | midkay | arse_, np |
| 14:03:41 | marevalo | amiconn: maybe theli is not that happy with your CB commit: http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/5054 |
| 14:03:42 | FutureCrash | midkay I read that... I thought of trying it out and perhaps trying to get it working |

| 14:04:23 | marevalo | amiconn: we ended with 3 diferent pieces for the Mini ;-) |
| 14:04:29 | midkay | FutureCrash, none of the dev team who are generally responsible for getting things like that working have an iPod 3G, but if you think you might be able to help, feel free to try :) |
| 14:05:12 | marevalo | midkay, ok, the real point is if the developers are ok with it, as many plugins would be "broken" with that guide in mind |
| 14:05:15 | FutureCrash | midkay I've not much experience in coding such things, but I think it would be an interesting thing to work on that :) |
| 14:05:44 | midkay | marevalo, well, depends on if you see it as a guide or actual rules :) |
| 14:06:36 | amiconn | marevalo: Ooops, overlooked this one... |
| 14:06:48 | midkay | it's quite a nice guide, but i don't think you have to be too strict on it or anything.. |
| 14:06:48 | amiconn | I swear I checked the tracker before... |
| 14:06:50 | marevalo | midkay: yep, the experience of having usability guides on projects like GNOME has been quite positive |
| 14:07:15 | midkay | FutureCrash, any progress is good progress, or something... whatever.. yes, help is very welcome. yeah. there. :) |
