#rockbox log for 2006-04-23

00:01:33preglowamiconn: btw, does the sample rate on the recording screen reflect the actual rate when using spdif on archos?
00:01:39preglowdoesn't look like it in the code
00:01:56amiconnHmm, dunno. I can check
00:02:06*amiconn doesn't record much)
00:02:19preglowi think it'd be best if it reflected the actual srate
00:03:31amiconnI agree
00:03:47amiconnIt's only lostlogic's box that throws DT_TEXTREL warnings
00:04:07amiconn...and it's the only box with a native gcc < 4
00:06:13 Quit |Unknown| ()
00:06:16sharpeoh noes!
00:07:16 Quit ender` (" There are two major products that come out of Berkeley: LSD and UNIX. We don't believe this to be a coincidence.")
00:07:19amiconnpreglow: Hmm, on archos the sample rate isn't displayed at all on the recording screen...
00:07:33amiconn...but iirc it was, and should be??
00:08:01pregloweh
00:08:07preglowthe screen shot in the manual does display it
00:08:12preglowthat's what i based myself on
00:08:23amiconnAh, yes.
00:08:46amiconnSomehow the peakmeter now has twice the height as it used to have...
00:08:57preglowhow nice
00:09:19 Join midkay [0] (n=midkay@rockbox/developer/midkay)
00:13:10preglowi think we should rename tagcache to something a bit more friendly
00:13:27scottderHappyFunTags
00:13:29scottder:)
00:13:35midkayhaha.
00:13:38sharpeId3Tagbase!
00:13:43preglowit's not only for id3
00:13:47bluebrotherFriendlyTagCache ;-)
00:13:53preglowanother thing we should fix
00:13:53sharpeTagbase!
00:14:03preglowrockbox currently says 'id3' about all tags
00:14:05midkaytag database or tagdb sounds best to me..
00:14:08preglowwhich isn't correct in the least
00:14:08scottderAllYouTagBaseBelongToUs
00:14:10bluebrotherall your base belongs to tag!
00:14:21preglowhahaha
00:14:24sharpeall your tag are belong to databse
00:14:34bluebrotherbut pleeease nothing with "id3" in it.
00:14:36preglowtag database is better than tag cache, at least
00:14:44sharpetagbase sounds cool.
00:15:00bluebrotherwe have id3 tags, vorbis comments, ape tags ...
00:15:24dpassen1Metabase
00:15:27sharpeit does... i mean... try saying it.
00:15:36amiconnpreglow: This change (double-height peakmeter in recording screen) was committed on 25 Mar 2006 by 'Dan'. He committed a patch by Martin Scarratt
00:15:51amiconnThe double height has to be taken back for archos.
00:16:03bluebrotherTag Database sounds good. At least it is a database.
00:16:14midkayamiconn, now that you seem to be back - can you tell me what the problem was with the keyboard update?
00:16:20amiconnYes
00:16:32amiconnI even saw that after looking at your diff for 2 minutes
00:16:55amiconnBefore, there was a button_read_w_tmo(HZ/2) , which nicely waits and yields meanwhile
00:17:14amiconnYou replaced it with a button_get(false) which busy polls...
00:17:26midkayi thought button_get(false) was the new/better way of doing it..
00:17:33preglowamiconn: badness
00:17:39midkayi had no trouble with it at the pitch screen.
00:17:46amiconnOh?
00:18:12amiconnThen either the pitch screen yields at another place, or you didn't really test
00:18:22 Quit lee-qid_ ("Trillian (http://www.ceruleanstudios.com")
00:18:29*amiconn is somewhat annoyed by such things
00:18:39midkayamiconn, ah, it's button_get(true).
00:18:45amiconnThe feature freeze phase should stabilise things, not the opposite...
00:18:57midkayamiconn, well, i'm very sorry. :)
00:19:03amiconnbutton_get(true) wouldn't have helped you here, since you want to blink
00:19:13midkayamiconn, exactly, which is why i went for false..
00:19:59midkayamiconn, btw, shouldn't HZ/2 be extremely slow?
00:20:02amiconnWell, all 3 variants (button_get(true), button_get(false) and button_get_w_tmo(timeout) ) have their purpose
00:20:19amiconnIt's not any slower than your blink, even a little faster
00:20:49midkayi always use w_tmo in clock.c, but i see button_get false/true almost _everywhere_ else so i thought that was the smarter way of doing it, and w_tmo was supposed to be used only in certain places.
00:21:01amiconnNo
00:21:02midkayamiconn, i mean HZ/2 as far as button reading..
00:21:07amiconnNo
00:22:10midkaynow i'm remembering discussing this a while ago - HZ/2 seems to scan the buttons fine in Rockbox core but sort of limit code/lcd updates to that speed, but in plugins it slows down the button reading too - iirc that was deemed a bug but never hunted down?
00:22:18amiconnIt will return a pressed button not any slower than button_get(), but it will wait for a button if none is pressed atm, for a maximum of <timeout> ticks
00:22:45midkayaha!
00:22:55midkayand has it ever seemed that's different in plugins?
00:23:01amiconnnope
00:23:16amiconnThere is no bug in these functions I know of.
00:23:18midkayit only seems to return the button *after* <timeout> ticks, regardless of when it's pressed.. or something..
00:23:27amiconnnope
00:23:30midkaymaybe it's my imagination or maybe it was fixed a while back..
00:23:36 Quit Rondom (Read error: 113 (No route to host))
00:23:39amiconnIt was never broken
00:24:19midkayhm.. maybe i'm thinking of something else then. alright, thanks for the clarification :)
00:24:33amiconnbutton_get(false) just checks for a button and returns immediately. It returns BUTTON_NONE if none was pressed
00:24:36sharpewhat else could be a topic on the plague? :D
00:24:59amiconnbutton_get(true) waits indefinitely for a button to be pressed, and therefore will never return BUTTON_NONE
00:25:20midkayamiconn, so why would false kill playback if i may ask? scanning way more often than needed?
00:25:30amiconnbutton_get_w_tmo(timeout) also waits for a button to be pressed, but only <timeout> ticks at maximum
00:25:50amiconnIf still no button was pressed, it returns BUTTON_NONE
00:26:10amiconnWith a button already pressed, all 3 functions return immediately, returning the button value
00:26:21midkayamiconn, gotcha :)
00:26:35amiconnmidkay: There is a loop in keyboard.c that draws the layout, then evaluates the buttons
00:26:47midkayright..
00:27:03amiconnIf you use button_get(false), this never waits, and hence never yields, so other threads have no chance to run
00:27:25midkayso overall button_get(false) should be avoided?
00:27:38amiconnSo the codec thread and playback thread can't run, and the pcm playback will run out of data
00:28:05amiconnmidkay: Neither. There are situations where it makes perfect sense, otherwise it wouldn't exist
00:28:24amiconnYou should just think about timing and threading, and test stuff
00:28:26midkayamiconn, i'll search the code for what situations, then, i'm quite curious..
00:29:10 Quit Acksaw ("I'm off, see ya later!")
00:29:11amiconnE.g. if you have a loop where you want constant delays, and also want to check buttons
00:29:29midkayamiconn, it wasn't clear to me that false would be a problem, i was under the impression it was 'true'.. unfortunately i didn't have enough time to test every possible situation.
00:29:31amiconnThen you'll use button_get(false) and sleep() in the loop
00:29:42amiconnutsl
00:29:43midkayhmm.
00:29:51amiconnPlayback is a pretty common situation
00:31:09midkayagreed, i'm not sure what you want me to say :) i could argue that playback was effectively broken for a couple weeks and you're biting my head off for a glitch involving a temporary pause in playback while you're at the not-so-often used keyboard screen..
00:31:45midkay..as the result of simply having the wrong impression of true/false in button_get..
00:32:20amiconnI'm only saying that changes should be tested before commit. And imho you cannot compare playback rework with the vkeyboard
00:33:05midkaythat was rather directed at your 'feature freeze should fix things, not break them' comment. not sure if you tested this on your ipod mini, but i found it to be very useful, possibly worth the couple seconds it took to fix. :)
00:33:31amiconnI don't see the advantage of a blinking cursor
00:33:51preglowi prefer it blinking
00:33:51midkayi mean inversing the line bar when in line-edit mode.
00:33:58amiconn..and the inverted line is a bit irritating
00:34:10midkayhaha. is it? seriously? i found it 400% more intuitive..
00:34:26midkaynow scrolling the cursor off the bottom of the keyboard actually makes sense.
00:34:46amiconnIt made sense before as well
00:35:08amiconnNo Ondio user has complained about the way vkeyboard works with a limited keypad
00:35:13midkaysomewhat, but there was absolutely no feedback and it confuses users every time i tell them how to do it until they actually manage to learn it..
00:41:04amiconnBah, this recording screen adaption is a hack....
00:41:28midkayamiconn, which?
00:42:10amiconnThe one committed on 25 Mar 2006, adapting the recording screen to the remote
00:42:26preglowworks ok enough
00:42:55amiconnpreglow: Maybe it works okay on iriver main LCD and ipod, but it's still a hack
00:43:26amiconn...and it brought that double-height peakmeter which has to go for archos, and should also go on the iriver remote
00:44:30preglowit does indeed
00:44:42amiconnThis would allow the sample frequency to be displayed on the remote
00:44:56amiconn...which happens to have 8 lines with the sysfont, same as archos
00:45:20amiconnThe double-height peakmeter expands this to 9, and makes the sample frequency display vanish
00:45:25sharpewhich sounds more alarming, the black death or anthrax?
00:45:55preglowhahaha
00:46:03preglowanything with 'black' in it sounds alarming

01:10:47amiconnI can't, due to lack of proper optical cable
01:11:34sharpei can't... due to lack of... hardware?
01:12:16jeremyanyone know if someone is actually working on plugging the ipod accessory protocol stuff up before I start looking into it?
01:12:33sharpedon't think anyone is.
01:12:53amiconnI probably will, but not before the 3.0 release
01:13:04amiconnThe real problem is the serial comm afaiu
01:13:28preglowbut ok, if no one can test, i'll just commit it when it works here
01:13:50preglowi'm tired of this remote ssh coding
01:14:01amiconnipl doesn't have serial drivers for any of the newer ipods, so we need to find info about the serial port ourselves
01:14:32jeremyamiconn: how so? (... as I've only started glancing through the code and the info on the protocol itself)
01:15:10amiconnYeah, but you'll also need a driver for the port you want to run the protocol on...

01:16:35jeremy*nod* that could make things more "fun"
01:17:11preglownot only fun, but also not a complete waste of time
01:18:13kapheineamiconn: i was able to get gcc 4.0.2 to build by removing the assert that was causing the ICE. i really, really don't recommend doing that because i have no clue if the assert is wrong or if the code that is causing the assert to trigger is wrong. the only reason i am even trying it this way is because someone else ran into a case where an assert in do_SUBST was incorrect for his IA-32 platform..
01:19:16preglowworth a shot
01:20:03preglowtried building rockbox with it?
01:20:38kapheinei'm working on that now, but unfortunately i have no hardware to test it on.. i don't have any m68k-based players.
01:20:45amiconnHmm, someone wasn't fully alert when hacking the recording screen. We do have enough space to show the sample frequency within 8 lines and the double height peakmeter
01:20:51kapheinei have a ton of coldfire boards at work though, so i can try running something on those on monday
01:22:30amiconnWould make sense to compare the binary produced by m68k-elf-gcc running on amd64 with the binary produced by the same m68k-elf-gcc version running on i686

01:35:31HaykuroHello! Anyone here active that can help me out?
01:36:11sharpesure
01:36:27HaykuroThx, sharpe :)
01:36:35HaykuroOkay well, I have a 2GB nano
01:36:44Haykuroand I installed rockbox without a problem
01:36:49Haykurogot the JPEG viewer
01:37:06Haykurothen noticed the RVF extension for videos (after reading the manual for nano)
01:37:18Haykuroso i tried getting the video.rock file
01:37:21Haykurobut only found
01:37:29Haykuroerm.. hold on
01:37:31Haykurolet me get the link
01:37:41Haykurohttp://home.ripway.com/2004-2/66978/RockVideoRelease.zip
01:37:44Haykurobut that link is dead
01:37:47Haykuroand no one else has it
01:37:50sharpeas far as i know, the rvf format is only supported on archoses
01:37:56Haykurohold on
01:37:56amiconnyes
01:38:11sharpeand it's only in grayscale.
01:38:27Haykurois there any other way to play videos?
01:38:31sharpenope
01:38:39Haykurohmm
01:38:40Haykurohttp://pdf2html.spawncamp.net/pdf2html.php?url=http://download.rockbox.org/manual/rockbox-ipodnano-20060422.pdf
01:38:43Haykuroscroll down a bit
01:38:50blindxWhat does "Rockbox error: -2" entail?
01:38:58sharpeon ipod videos, you have to boot into the apple firmware. but there aren't any ways for other players, except the archoses.
01:39:03HaykuroA.1. Supported File Formats
01:39:14preglowargh
01:39:15Haykuro.rvf is one of them
01:39:25sharpei think that's just in general.
01:39:25midkaythen it's rather a mistake, Haykuro.
01:39:44midkayit doesn't work on anything but the bitmap LCD archos players.. supported ones.
01:39:45amiconnHaykuro: The manual is far from finished, especially for targets which won't be supported in the 3.0 release
01:39:45preglowi can't find the EBU1RCVCCHANNEL1 description in the coldfire docs
01:39:55amiconnThis is simply a leftover from the archos manual
01:40:19blindxhm..
01:40:59amiconnblindx: Where do you get this?
01:41:14blindxWhen turning on my iPod (color)
01:42:59amiconn-2 means the rockbox.ipod file is smaller than 4 bytes, i.e. corrupted
01:43:21blindxoh.
01:43:33blindxum. so i should download a new copy and swap em out?
01:44:00blindxheh. 0 bytes. wonder how that happened..
01:44:39Haykurookay, thx anyways.. just outa blight i'll mention wut i've accomplished.. i took the video.rock files from the archoses download cuz i didnt kno wut else to do, set the viewer properties and now it sais "Incompatible Module" which im guessing its been programmed to check which rockbox its for
01:45:11blindxThanks, amiconn. lets see if it boots now..
01:45:39blindxnow i got a -1 :\
01:45:52sharpewell, you're progressing :D
01:46:00blindxheh
01:46:16amiconnIt's a step back
01:46:21sharpethat means there isn't rockbox.ipod
01:46:27sharpefor you, anyway.
01:46:29amiconn-1 means the bootloader can't find rockbox.ipod at all
01:46:39blindxbut.
01:46:40blindx...
01:47:03blindxo.o
01:47:05blindxit's not there.
01:47:06preglowbah
01:47:18preglowi get random hangs when recording
01:47:35sharpeblindx: maybe you should like, not use whatever you currently use to unzip it...
01:47:36blindxAm I missing something here? :| I copy and paste it. It shows.. shows as the correct sizes, but when I unplug, it 'disappears'
01:48:31 Quit bluebrother ("Leaving")

01:49:18blindxhow do you.. safely remove?

01:49:31Inc /awayyyyyyyyyyyy
01:49:34Haykurowuts the advantages of rockbox aside from using the plain old regular ipod software if it doesnt do anything different aside from skins? (im not hating against RB im just wondering is there some features im looking over?)
01:49:44sharpeplugins...
01:50:43Haykuroyea, but the plugins r to do useless things, screen savers (waste battery mode), jpeg viewers (ipod software views them already..), Doom (probably one of the only reasons i like RockBox compared to iPod Linux that the RB version has sound)
01:51:08Galoishttp://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/WhyRockbox ?
01:51:22Galoisor how about the short version: Rockbox Does Gapless Playback
01:51:32Haykurotrue
01:51:43Haykuror there documentations to code ur own plugins, maybe i can do my own video plugin (or any1 already try 2?)
01:52:27amiconnGapless playback, really flexible playlist system, doesn't depend in itunes, plays way more formats......
01:52:36Galoishttp://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/TWiki/TWikiPlugins#Creating_Plugins ...
01:52:46sharpethat's for twiki...
01:54:09Haykurowuts twiki? anywho, this seems enough if i ever require help is there someone that i can contact to inform me some extra info for this?
01:54:29sharpetwiki is the wiki that rockbox runs on
01:54:34sharpethe website that is
01:54:34Haykuroyea, thought so
01:55:23Haykuroim new to RB just found it 2day, and loved it for about 2 seconds till i noticed no video, its the only thing thats bugging me. aside that i like the interface and all. thx again guys, help was apreciated
01:55:24sharpehttp://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/HowtoWritePlugins
01:55:30amiconnpreglow: Archos shows the selected recording sample rate even for spdif, not the actual one.
01:55:40preglowyeah, looked like it
01:55:53sharpeand you can also figure out more by looking at the source of plugins
01:55:56Galoisthe nano can't play videos anyway even without rockbox
01:57:02amiconnHaykuro: The newer rockbox targets will perhaps play video, one day. But it's certainly not a priority. First of all rockbox is a powerful dap firmware, and the primary purpose of a dap is to play music
01:57:44HaykuroGalois, i kno, but the ppl over at iPod linux got video working, and if i somehow accomplish video on RB i'd love RB and say its 10x better than iPod linux
01:57:58amiconnpreglow: Ideally this should be fixed, so that it displays the detected samplerate for spdif
01:58:34GaloisI use rockbox because ogg vorbis sounds better than AAC at low bitrates and nanos have so little disk space that sound quality matters
01:58:40sharpeHaykuro: ipodlinux is also specifically for one platform, rockbox coveres 14 different targets
01:58:42Shadowarrior13Is anyone IN the ipodlinux room?
01:58:53preglowamiconn: yeah, but i have no idea how to do that for archos
01:58:54Shadowarrior13I'm banned for some odd reason, considering I haven't been there for weeks.
01:59:04preglowon iriver i'd just need a simple feedback variable from pcm_recording.c
01:59:17preglowthat, or just put some low-level code in recording.c
01:59:27amiconnpreglow: Just add that for swcodec, and keep in mind not to tie it too closely to that
01:59:30amiconnOn archos, we'
01:59:52amiconnll need a feedback function somewhere in the recording code that reads the mas
02:00
02:00:21preglowwe'll see, i'll just keep it as it is in the first commit
02:00:44preglowif i ever get it to work completely, that is
02:02:58amiconnWe already have a function to read back the last encoded mpeg header from the mas

02:24:53preglowwhatboutbob: so, any action?
02:25:14sharpeHaykuro: rockbox is written in c
02:25:31Haykuroahh
02:25:34sharpeHaykuro: and you should also compile it with rockbox, as it uses functions referenced in it
02:25:35Haykurothat was my second guess

03:28:27kapheineah well i'm not familiar enough with windows to know what 'error 487' means :P but you should see what command make is issuing that causes the crash, and try to run that command manually
03:28:37sharpeit may be zip
03:28:41kapheineIt mentions a fork problem, so it may have to do with make trying to spawn off the other process

04:25:51KyomiI've completely re-installed rockbox and theres a SID.codec sitting right there
04:26:07KyomiAnd yet when I try to play a SID file it says no codec found
04:26:31whatboutbobfeels alot like i'm going around in circles. :(
04:27:11sharpewhatboutbob: only if you start to use final, then you're circular. otherwise, so far you're linear
04:27:33whatboutbobhehe...gee thanks...

04:36:10sharpenew fangled cygwin :D
04:36:15*Paul_The_Nerd suggests VMWare.
04:36:33sharpehe can't access //Debian ...
04:36:44Paul_The_NerdFirewall?
04:36:55whatboutbobPaul_The_Nerd: w/ VMWare, when I make a build, how the hell do i access it?
04:37:23Paul_The_Nerdwhatboutbob: Do you have a firewall, like Zone Alarm?
04:37:33whatboutbobsygate
04:37:58Paul_The_NerdOkay, firewalls often prevent access. Try disabling it briefly to see if that's it.
04:38:03Paul_The_NerdAlso, its \\Debian not //Debian
04:38:07Paul_The_NerdThe direction is important
04:38:29sharpewell, we all know my luck with... something i don't have much luck with.
04:39:33sharpespreadable butter with canola oil! oh my god!
04:39:39sharpesuch an innovation!
04:39:55sharpebecause of canola oil! who would've though of that?
04:40:38whatboutbobi think i'm doing something stupid tho....i'm in vmware, in /home/user/rockbox-devel/build_h120...i can see rockbox.zip...but how do i get that to the iriver?
04:41:09Paul_The_Nerdwhatboutbob: The VMWare image is seen as a virtual machine on your network. Start->Run-> \\Debian
04:41:22Paul_The_Nerdwhatboutbob: It's a samba share so you can then just browse to the file
04:41:55whatboutbobu/p?
04:42:12Paul_The_NerdOkay, I don't know what "u/p" means.

04:47:29KyomiWould you know anything about how to solve a Codec Not Found for <file> error?
04:47:54Kyomiwhatboutbob: To get to complete home dir just do cd\
04:47:55Kyomi:)
04:47:57Paul_The_NerdKyomi: What kinda file is it?
04:47:58whatboutbobsee...that's what i would have thought...but it says command not found...
04:48:11sharpeyou think a lot, don't you?
04:48:22whatboutbobi try not to... :-/
04:49:55Paul_The_Nerdwhatboutbob: cd ~ gets to your home dir. cd .. goes up a level.
04:50:13KyomiPaul_The_Nerd: It's a SID file
04:50:23KyomiThe SID codec is ther... sitting in codecs
04:50:27KyomiAnd it worked before
04:50:34KyomiBut since the updates its... crapped out

04:52:55KyomiPaul_The_Nerd: I don't believe so.. KOSH didn't say anything about it
04:53:11KyomiThe last thing I saw on the SID codec is he/she removed 1.0 and added 1.1
04:55:57Paul_The_NerdKyomi: Well I can't help with the optimized build at all. That error would imply that the proper codec file wasn't found.
04:56:29KyomiBut it's sitting right there in the codecs dir
04:56:36KyomiI can see it in windows and on the h300
04:56:42Kyomih320 rather
04:56:51Paul_The_NerdKyomi: Yes, but are you user that's a NEW version of it, or is that left over from your previous install?
04:57:00Paul_The_NerdThat could be an outdated file
04:57:21whatboutbobduh...i was typing 'cd..' not 'cd ..'. Thanks for your extreme patience guys...and not openly laughing at me. :)
04:57:56KyomiPaul_The_Nerd: I've deleted my entire rockbox dir and re-installed it
04:58:07KyomiI'm pretty sure my batch file isn't the problem
04:58:14KyomiAll it does is remove the themes/wps folder
04:58:20KyomiAnd some of the rocks I never use

04:59:44Jungti1234Where is tag browser?
04:59:47Paul_The_NerdKyomi: You really shouldn't come asking for help unless you can verify the problem exists with the newest version of everything applicable (which would be a CVS Rockbox with the sid_1_2b.diff)

05:01:50Jungti1234TagCache is ID3 tag?
05:01:53KyomiIt is identified
05:02:02KyomiSid codec can't be found even though its right there
05:02:06Paul_The_NerdKyomi: Alright. Tell me then, which version of the SID patch is he using?
05:02:16Kyomi1.1 as far as I know
05:02:24Paul_The_NerdKyomi: Which is outdated, and doesn't work period any more.
05:02:29KyomiUnless CVS has SID in it
05:02:39KyomiThere we go, problem solved :)
05:02:41Paul_The_NerdKyomi: CVS does not have SID. That's one you can check for yourself.
05:02:50Paul_The_NerdKyomi: You can't *build* Rockbox with the 1.1 patch.
05:03:00Kyomio.o
05:03:10Paul_The_NerdSo, it can't be the 1.1, at least not without modifications.
05:03:15KyomiAlright then
05:03:18KyomiIt's the 1.2b :)
05:03:24KyomiSince it works for everything else :)
05:03:59Paul_The_NerdYou're now guessing though
05:04:14KyomiWell there isn't any newer SID codec
05:04:20KyomiAnd you can't build it with 1.1
05:04:24KyomiSo it's 1.2
05:04:27Kyomi:)
05:04:27Paul_The_NerdOr 1.2b
05:04:32Kyomio.o
05:04:37Paul_The_NerdOr he modified 1.1 to build
05:04:41Jungti1234hey, Tag Browser is "ID3 database" menu?
05:04:44KyomiAlright... I give up, I'm retarded :P
05:04:44sharpeyes
05:04:46Paul_The_NerdAnd because the 1.1 is out of date, it builds but does not actually run
05:04:57KyomiYou win ok? :
05:05:01Kyomi*surrenders*
05:05:13Paul_The_NerdI'm just saying it's not a good idea to ask for help unless you can actually clearly state the conditions under which the problems occur.
05:05:30KyomiWell.. I did o.o
05:05:34Paul_The_NerdAs it is, 1.2b doesn't even build with the newest CVS, which is why I was 100% sure it wasn't the NEWEST CVS.
05:05:47Paul_The_NerdWhat was "clear" about "I don't know which version of the SID patch he's using, or how old the build is?"
05:05:56KyomiI didn't say that :P
05:06:33Paul_The_NerdWell, you couldn't answer me with a solid answer when I asked.
05:06:50Paul_The_NerdThat's the "conditions under which the problems occur" right there.
05:07:00KyomiAre you trying to torture me or something o.o
05:07:15Paul_The_NerdWell, you keep saying you *did* give the relevant information
05:07:19KyomiI give up and then it's like.. you continue then I start again and then you make me give up again
05:07:24Kyomibecause I did
05:07:26Paul_The_NerdOkay
05:07:27KyomiAccording to me :P
05:07:30Paul_The_NerdYes.
05:07:34Paul_The_NerdAccording to you
05:07:38Paul_The_NerdWho clearly doesn't know what "relevant" means
05:07:57KyomiAnd there you go again
05:07:59Paul_The_NerdIt's like saying "I run windows" and expecting someone to know whether that means XP, 2000, NT, ME, 98, 95, 3.1, 3.11, or 3.0
05:08:12KyomiWell I would assume it's xp
05:08:15Paul_The_NerdYes
05:08:18Paul_The_NerdThen what do you do if it's not?
05:08:31KyomiBecause I doubt people still use any 3.x to get to the internet
05:08:36Kyomi95 probably not
05:08:38Kyomi98 maybe
05:08:50KyomiPaul_The_Nerd: Ask them?
05:08:58Paul_The_NerdKyomi: And when I asked you, you said "I don't know."
05:09:36KyomiWhat do you want from me? >_<
05:09:53KyomiIt's like you keep shoving my mistakes or whatever in my face
05:09:55sharpeanswers, apparantly.
05:09:59sharpeapparently.
05:10:15Paul_The_NerdWell you keep saying you didn't *make* a mistake
05:10:17KyomiI give up, you make me continue.. I give up again, you make me continue then insult me
05:11:06Paul_The_NerdAll I'm trying to do is press upon you the importance of actually identifying the full circumstances of a problem.
05:11:36KyomiI did.... but apparently not concise enough for you
05:11:42Paul_The_NerdNotice the word "full"
05:11:49KyomiWhich you fail to mention when I do and then just.... drill me
05:12:01Paul_The_NerdWhat about what you told me was anything near full?
05:12:23Paul_The_NerdYou couldn't tell me the date the build was made, or what version of the offending patch it used. You basically said "I don't know" to the only important questions I had about it.

05:13:17Paul_The_NerdI mean, you ask for help, then say I "drilled" you, when all I did was ask for the information I'd need to at least diagnose it.

06:11:43kapheinelostlogic: http://www.darcs.net I couldn't live without it
06:11:52lostlogicreading.
06:12:56lostlogicnope, darcs doesn't do what my VCS will do.
06:13:12kapheineSolve world hunger?
06:13:14sharpewhat will your VCS do?
06:13:45lostlogicnot telling. I might try to sell it and I don't want you bastards beating me to market (even though it will probably end up open source)
06:13:59sharpeyeah, i live to thrive off your ideas. ;)
06:14:15kapheineWell, as great as darcs is, SCM is hard and there is always room for improvement, so best of luck :P
06:14:35Galoismmm bitkeeper
06:14:35kapheineIt's one of those things that seems impossible to make perfect
06:14:40kapheineGalois: do you use bitkeeper?
06:14:56Galoisno!!
06:15:23kapheineOh no, I hope I didn't bring back some childhood memories

06:17:51lostlogickapheine: darcs feels a lot like Git. Why darcs over git?

06:18:57 Nick amiconn_ is now known as amiconn (n=jens@rockbox/developer/amiconn)
06:19:11kapheinelostlogic: well, for one git isn't an SCM, it's a layer down. In fact, darcs has some initial support for using git as a backend. But beyond that, the major feature of darcs is patch theory. Which, in very simple terms, means it is meant for pulling in individual changes, rather than a state of a given tree.
06:19:40kapheineThat is a very simplified explanation of it, but also I have about 8 or 9 beers in me, so don't expect me to explain the intricate details of patch theory :P
06:19:43lostlogicokokok, why darcs over cogito then :-P
06:20:19lostlogicah, that does sound nice
06:20:31kapheineBut I will point out that cogito still wins for large source trees. Darcs is still young and patch theory is processor intensive. It still has trouble with trees as large as the Linux kernel.
06:20:44lostlogicso you can say "Hey, give me the cahnges from transaction X" and supposedly get just those changes applied in a Best Guess way to your current tree
06:21:43sharpehmm. why is it i'm writing an emulator?
06:22:06sharpeoh i'm missing a page here.
06:22:10lostlogicIf I didn't have zero interest in learning haskell, I would like to incorporate my ideas with darcs. In theory, what I want to do is make an VCS that is _parse tree_ rather than _text_ based.
06:22:12kapheineRight. Which can be very handy when you have a stable tree and an unstable tree, and you want to pull bugfixes from unstable into stable, but not other changes
06:22:16sharpenevermind
06:22:20lostlogickapheine: yep
06:22:59kapheineDarcs allows different patch types, but currently there is only the text based and searc/replace type changes. Nobody has implemented anything else, but thigns liek parse tree changes would be great.
06:23:25kapheineIf you do start a VCS, you should try darcs for a bit. It's very possible it doesn't do all of what you want, but it should at least give you ideas to incorporate into your own system.
06:23:48sharpeyou should name it something catchy.
06:23:54sharpelike, stick.
06:24:16lostlogic*nod* Knowing myself, I won't actually end up wtih anything useable, but I'll learn a lot in the process of not making anything useable :)

08:21:15Paul_The_NerdWell, you could always just build one.
08:21:43Paul_The_NerdThose ones were likely quite out of date anyway.
08:22:17KlrSpzon win32?
08:23:10Paul_The_NerdDoes it not work any more?
08:25:40KlrSpzsupposedly not.. i mean he doesn't eve have links anymore
08:26:06Paul_The_NerdKlrSpz: So, you haven't tried for yourself
08:26:15Paul_The_NerdHe says he can't build a Win32 SDL sim *from Linux*
08:26:32Paul_The_NerdThat note is also at least 23 days old.
08:27:19KlrSpzwell i can't find it to build it anyway... i must be missing the link somewhere
08:27:48Paul_The_NerdWhen you run "make" in your build directory, one of the choices is "Simulator"
08:29:18amiconnconfigure, not make
08:29:24Paul_The_NerdOh, right
08:29:25Paul_The_NerdSorry
08:29:41Paul_The_Nerd../tools/configure, pick a target, then S for sim instead of N for normal
08:30:03Paul_The_NerdThen make, and make install (instead of make zip)
08:30:25amiconnThe cross-compilation of a win32 sdl sim from windows should be possible, but has to be added to configure
08:30:38amiconnErm, from linux of course
08:31:14Paul_The_NerdI think the site's a good bit out of date.
08:32:03amiconnYeah, rashers seems to have little time and/or interest to do rockbox work lately
08:32:56amiconnThe fonts are also a bit outdated; the .fnt files are made with the buggy convbdf that made some glyphs appear half-height

08:37:21KlrSpzi was thinkin of this one: http://tinyurl.com/jpsl5
08:37:29Paul_The_NerdIt's also really good at keeping the scrollwheel from getting bumped if I have hold off, and makes it easy to press any of the 4 buttons without accidentally scrolling.
08:37:32amiconnHaha, imho that's one off their weird things about most ipods, especially the nano
08:38:19Paul_The_NerdKlrSpz: They use "dirt" as a verb. I don't like it. :-P
08:38:54amiconnWhat's the point in making such a small device but at the same time making it so scratchy that you need to make it larger by adding some protector??
08:38:55Paul_The_Nerdamiconn: The scrollwheel protector has a sorta folded ridge around the outside edge that lets you press the buttons without getting close enough for it to pick up your finger contact.
08:39:09KlrSpzgotta link?
08:39:13*Paul_The_Nerd felt it was too small anyway'

08:46:07Paul_The_NerdKlrSpz: Honestly, the main reason I ordered an iSkin was I wanted a better case for my H120, and those were on sale at the time, and I thought "Hmm... why not just order cases for both from the same place."
08:46:28KlrSpzbut you would recommend it right?
08:46:32Paul_The_NerdAbsolut3e
08:46:35Paul_The_NerdAbsolutely even
08:46:54amiconnlostlogic: I have an idea what might cause this. Is it correct that you didn't touch talk.c, or did I overlook something?
08:47:31amiconnAlso, would talk.c be allowed to preempt a clip immediately on swcodec, causing incomplete frames?
08:51:16HotfusionI wonder. If I take a H3xx rockbox wps theme and make it fit to a x5l would be the best way to adjust the pic sizes the quickest
08:53:13Paul_The_NerdHotfusion: Scale them all to 72% of their size, then scale the pixel coordinates to 72% of their values, then pick a font 72% smaller, then add a padding pixel or two to the backdrop image if it's a wee bit too small as it may be. 72.72727272 is a more valid value, but 73% may result in a too large backdrop.
08:54:53Hotfusionyeah I'll have to play with the font size

13:01:52Mikachulinuxstb_: there's a silly bug in sudoku, if you open a saved .ss that isn't in a legal state, you can't exit the plugin because you can't open the menu while the board is illegal
13:04:10Mikachulinuxstb_: i also can't figure out why you return PLUGIN_USB_CONNECTED when you quit from the menu

13:29:18amiconnlinuxstb: Another sudoku quirk: If you start sudoku as a plugin, it always starts with generating a new game
13:29:22Mikachulinuxstb: i also don't think the quit menu entry should save, or rename it Save & Quit
13:29:52Mikachulinuxstb: i solved it like this
13:30:02Mikachu- return(true);
13:30:02Mikachu+ return(!check_status(state));
13:30:05Mikachuin load_sudoku
13:30:13amiconnThis is a lenghty operation esp. on archos, and it is annoying if you don't want that, but e.g. want to build yor own game
13:30:17preglowanyone got any idea what might cause recording to just hang?
13:30:55 Quit wehn ()
13:31:45linuxstbMikachu: I'm not sure if that's enough - check_status() doesn't check the whole board, it just checks the part of the board affected by the number at the cursor position.
13:32:05Mikachulinuxstb: hm yeah
13:32:22Mikachuyou could still move the cursor into a space that doesn't let you exit
13:36:10linuxstbamiconn: If the default "sudoku.ss" file exists, then that will be loaded when you start Sudoku as a plugin. But as you say, if that doesn't exist it will generate a game randomly. I'm not sure I would want to change that.
13:36:51Mikachuwhat happens if you open a .ss file, generate, and save?

13:40:10 Part Paul_The_Nerd
13:40:34mborusRegarding ideas why recording hangs: Is it possible that the Iriver hangs when no signal is found?
13:40:58linuxstbamiconn: I still think that the majority of users will start Sudoku in order to play a random game, rather than enter one manually.
13:41:38linuxstbAnd I think that should only happen the first time you start the plugin. The next time, you will have a sudoku.ss file which will be loaded.
13:41:48preglowmborus: doubt it
13:41:58preglowi haven't done much to the code either
13:42:03amiconnlinuxstb: It happens everytime as long as there is no sudoku.ss
13:42:09preglowso it's probably some braindead hardware thing
13:42:29mborusWhen I go into debug - S/PDIF analyser to signal is shown. I tried both 44.1kHz and 48 kHz signals and with the same setup I can record 44.1 using the Iriver firmware.
13:42:38amiconn...which won't exist unless you explicitly save a game with that name
13:42:55preglowmborus: i can record both 44.1khz and 48khz here with no problems
13:43:05linuxstbamiconn: Then something is going wrong - a randomly generated game should be given that name, and quitting should cause it to be saved.
13:43:09preglowi have only tried 16 bit sound, thoigh
13:43:27amiconnlinuxstb: It's definitely not saved on Ondio

13:46:34preglowi can only make recording hang after having switched from either mic/line in to digital
13:46:38mborus_2ndpreglow, just to make sure it's not a hardware problem I'm going to do a digital recording on the Iriver firmware right now and try Rockbox again afterwards.
13:46:59linuxstbamiconn: I'm guessing you're quitting using the OFF button, rather than selecting Quit in the menu? The game only seems to be saved when you quit from the menu, and ipods don't have a quit button defined....
13:47:06 Join matsl [0] (n=matsl@1-1-4-2a.mal.sth.bostream.se)
13:47:27amiconnlinuxstb: Yes of course I'm using the Off button. Using the menu would be cumbersome
13:47:47Mikachuso create an empty sudoku.ss?
13:48:05preglowmborus_2nd: oh, i'm almost certain it's not a hardware problem
13:48:19amiconnImho all plugins should have a quit button. Showing the menu when the intended operation is to quit is counter-intuitive
13:48:37amiconn(like the current behaviour of the jpeg viewer and jewels)
13:48:40preglowand a separate button for quit is also quite a waste
13:49:07 Nick lee-qid is now known as lee-qid||0xf00d (n=liqid@p5496569D.dip.t-dialin.net)
13:49:46amiconnImho it's not a waste, but rather ensures consistent operation
13:50:06amiconnI like the jewels game, but exiting it has become a button orgy recently...
13:50:07preglowi'm ok with it if there's enough buttons
13:50:17preglowbut how would you fit a quit button in ipod doom?
13:50:39preglowexiting it has become a case of entering the menu and pressing quit
13:50:42preglowhardly a big bother
13:50:48amiconnDoom is different in that it has its own in-game menus, which do have a quit option
13:50:49linuxstbamiconn: I agree with you, but in practice we don't have enough buttons to give everything a consistent purpose.
13:51:03preglowi don't feel entering a menu and quitting is a big bother at all
13:53:05amiconnQuitting jewels used to be as simple as pressing Off. Now it is: Press Off, select 'End Game' from the in-game menu (3x down, right), and select 'Quit' from the outer menu (4x down, right)
13:53:20 Quit bluebrother ("brb ...")
13:53:30amiconnAn operation that used to be 1 keypress extended to 10 keypresses...
13:53:33preglowput quit in the first menu as well
13:54:08preglowbut ok, what suggestion do you have for a quit button on ipod?
13:54:09Paul_The_Nerdsid.c doesn't seem to compile anymore. =/
13:54:25amiconnAn the in game menu isn't a standard rockbox menu; on ipod it doesn't react on scroll-repeats...
13:54:56mborus_2ndBack. Here's the test result just to make sure. Iriver firmware records digitally both of 48 and 44.1 kHz - so my setup works. Rockbox creates a 0-Byte sized
13:55:03Paul_The_Nerd10 pressed does seem like a bit much.
13:55:18Mikachuamiconn: won't it wrap if you press up instead of down?
13:55:19Paul_The_NerdIt seems that "Quit" should be standardized to "Pull up the menu, go up one (looping to the bottom) and press."
13:55:20mborus_2ndfile - shows 8k in the display and the time counts up
13:55:36preglowmborus_2nd: i can record just fine here
13:55:36linuxstbamiconn: What's the normal button to bring up the main menu on the Ondio? Is that free in Jewels?
13:55:40amiconnWell, you can use Up to wrap around, but with the non-standard menus you can't be sure it works
13:55:54preglowmborus_2nd: what format does it send in?
13:55:56amiconnMain menu on Ondio is long Mode
13:55:57preglowmborus_2nd: 16 bits?
13:56:11preglowamiconn: what would you suggest we use as a quit button on ipod?
13:56:14mborus_2ndyes - it should be 16bit stereo 44.1 kHz
13:56:28preglowmborus_2nd: btw, do a proper reboot
13:56:34preglowmborus_2nd: then try again
13:56:40mborus_2ndok
13:57:25amiconnpreglow: On ipod there isn't a real standard yet, seems to be common to use just Menu if the plugin doesn't have a menu or otherwise needs many buttons. In the latter case Select+Menu is common
13:57:56linuxstbamiconn: I totally agree with you about Jewels - it seems there are enough free buttons (not including the ipod) to keep the standard behaviour for menu and quit.
13:58:15preglowexactly
13:58:52amiconnPaul_The_Nerd: In the 'Main menu' that some game plugins have, the quit button should always quit the game instead of just the menu
13:58:58preglowand in the case of jewels we have to use some weird button combo for quit
13:59:51Paul_The_Nerdamiconn: So, menu once for menu, then again to leave the game?
13:59:53amiconnMy suggestion for better consistency on ipod is that Select+Menu should always act as quit, even if just Menu can also be used for quit
14:00
14:00:20Paul_The_NerdI agree with that.
14:00:21linuxstbSounds sensible.
14:00:49Mikachuthe cube is confusing, select+menu changes some parameter but just menu quits it
14:00:59Mikachunot that the cube is the most important plugin
14:01:08Paul_The_NerdI just realized something... The front page shows actual names, but the since 2.5 page shows things like "Lostlogic" and "Kkurbjun"
14:01:24mborus_2ndI'm back. If I reboot, select digital, start a recording the Iriver hangs. I I do a mic recording after rebooting and start a digital recording, it does not hang...
14:01:24amiconnImportance doesn't matter here. If cube is inconsistent with the rest, it needs to be fixed
14:01:32preglowyeah, just like the commit mails and front page as well
14:01:45mborus_2nd.. however the recorded file is filled with silence only.
14:01:52*Paul_The_Nerd was confused when he started scanning for "Brandon"
14:01:53amiconn(and the parameter setting in cube is a bit odd anyway. It could use a similar scheme as bounce)
14:01:53lostlogicamiconn: When pcm is stopped, the delay is lowever long it takes the voice codec to decode ~1s of audio, or the whole clip, whichever is less.
14:02:10linuxstbAlthough that means we need to make sure that no plugin uses the SELECT press event - only the release events.
14:02:16lostlogicamiconn: I did not touch talk.c, and preemption _when pcm is stopped_ can fairly easily be improved, but much harder when pcm is playing.
14:02:23lostlogicg'morning.
14:02:43preglowlostlogic: yo, still no idea why the skipping tracks backwards across dirs hang?
14:02:55preglowmborus_2nd: i have no idea, i can't make it hang that easily here
14:03:08amiconnThe preemption doesn't seem to work at all sometimes.
14:03:08Paul_The_Nerdlostlogic: Did you remove "CODEC_DSP_ENABLE" at some point recently? (I just started looking for it.)
14:03:18preglowhe did
14:03:20preglowwhich was good
14:03:33Paul_The_Nerdpreglow: It's still in the SID patch. Should it be safe to just comment out that line?
14:03:41preglowremove it
14:03:44preglowit's not legal anymore
14:04:05amiconnNot only doesn't it preempt the current clip, but it also keeps clips in the queue which should have been dropped completely...
14:04:05preglowcodecs should not be able to decide if they want dsp or not anyway
14:04:07lostlogicpreglow: glad you agree :)
14:04:16amiconn...which is strange, since it works on archos...
14:04:18lostlogicpreglow: no, haven't looked at it yet, was working only on that voice rework
14:04:25mborus_2ndIf the patch I used still current? (http://www.pvv.org/~thomj/rockbox/spdif_recording.patch)
14:04:35mborus_2ndIs... (not if)
14:04:38preglowshould be, i haven't done anything since last night
14:04:40lostlogicamiconn: that's because the clips are already decodec to the pcm buffer then
14:05:21amiconnlostlogic: Then something is wrong with how voice clips are decoded. They need to be kept in the voice queue as long as possible, in order to keep the latency down
14:05:51lostlogicamiconn: it's too hard to calculate the insertion point and stuff, IMO
14:06:16amiconnIirc you told me that the pcm buffer is no longer than 1/4 sec for voice
14:06:48lostlogicamiconn: when playback is stopped, voice uses the 'normal' pcm buffer
14:07:06lostlogicfor mixing, it is inserted starting about 1/4 second back from the music playing point
14:07:08amiconnHmm, why is that?
14:07:25lostlogicamiconn: they are two totally different beasts, playing voice on its own vs. mixing
14:08:02amiconnHmm, but the normal pcm buffer can be adjusted in length?
14:08:13lostlogicbut either way, up-to the whole pcm buffer may be decoded ahead, and I haven't come up with a way to reduce this without introducing a lot of skippiness when mixing
14:08:47 Quit mirak (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
14:08:52preglowideally you should have separate decode buffer for voice that you just flush whenever what's in it is invalidated
14:08:56lostlogicfor non-mix voice, it would be almost trivial to flush the buffer for a preempt.
14:09:14preglowmixing should happen as late as possible
14:09:18lostlogicpreglow: we could do that, but there's still the problem of which thread and how far back to mix.
14:09:47lostlogicthe only 'person' who is guaranteed to know when more data needs mxiing is the DMA, and we sure as hella ren't mixing on the DMA interrupt.
14:10:16amiconnHmm, iiuc there could be a secondary pcm buffer for voice. This one is where decoded voice is buffered, and it would offer a flush function
14:10:38lostlogicyes, we could do that.
14:10:49lostlogicI gotta work on other playback bugs for a while though.
14:10:50amiconnThen we could mix real close to the playback point
14:11:06lostlogicyes.
14:11:10amiconnThe voice pcm buffer could be mono of course, saving ram
14:11:28preglowno worries
14:11:32lostlogichmm, interesting, that would involve DSP and voice codec adjustments.
14:11:34preglowwe'll never hit the date anyway
14:11:43lostlogiclol
14:12:03*amiconn needs to work on remote recognition and remote lcd init
14:12:04lostlogicwell I need a break from voice any way, it's not a feature I use, so it was pretty brutal to work on it a lot.
14:12:12preglowbtw
14:12:19preglowi'm still looking for bug reports on the resampler
14:12:24preglowi can't make it clicky anymore
14:12:51lostlogicpreglow: I have bugs that relate to resampling (causing misscalculation of playing points) but none in the resampler itself.
14:13:07preglowi'd be interested with the resampler based ones, yes
14:13:17preglowi don't have time to come up with anything that sounds better
14:13:22preglowso i have to go for bug fixing/optimising now
14:14:05lostlogicpreglow: seems like seeking and a/b repeat with 48khz audio causes the playback point reported not to match at all the real playing point.

14:15:45mborus_2ndI'm testing this with 48kHz mp2 streams
14:16:12mborus_2ndthese are radio shows, so they normally run three hours
14:16:17amiconnlostlogic: Hehe, similar here. I don't use the remote for real, but I am working on improving remote detection...

14:17:14mborus_2ndI haven't tested AB repeat on those lately, so I can't say when this started. But I noticed two bugs over this week
14:17:33*amiconn wonders whether it would be better to add yet another thread, or make the remote_scroll thread a bit more complex to save an extra thread
14:17:36preglowi never record, and am working on spdif recording
14:17:40preglowheh
14:17:56 Part ronbo
14:18:05mborus_2ndthe first one was, that bookmarks towards the end of the file didn't play. This now works again
14:18:43mborus_2ndThe second problem is AB repeat. When this failes, afterwards forwarding or rewinding can freeze the Iriver.
14:19:04amiconnlostlogic: Btw, speaking about playback. Now that you fixed the bug that a resume position was never cleared at the end of a playlist, there's a new bug
14:19:27preglowmborus_2nd: so, you always get silent recordings with spdif?
14:19:29amiconnNow the resume position gets sometimes cleared prematurely
14:19:56amiconnI.e. if you stop a playlist, you can't be sure that it's possible to resume it later
14:20:23mborus_2ndpreglow, yes - either crash=0 bytes or silent.
14:20:41preglowi can make it record just fine here
14:20:44preglowbargh
14:20:54amiconnHappened at least 3 times on my mini2g
14:21:29lostlogicamiconn: :( ok
14:21:31 Quit Rob2222_ ()
14:21:32amiconnEverytime *towards* the end of the playlist
14:21:46amiconn(like in the 2nd-last or 3rd-last track)
14:22:21amiconnMaybe it happens if the whole rest of the playlist is already buffered?
14:22:25lostlogicamiconn: ah, I think that makes sense −− my if() might have been on playlist end.
14:22:28lostlogicyeah
14:22:41lostlogicI prefer bugs that at least make sense :)

14:34:27Paul_The_NerdY'know, putting builds on your player that should bump the config block but don't can have some funny side effects.
14:34:43lostlogicmmhmm
14:34:45Paul_The_NerdFor example, the iPod Nano doesn't have a screen flip, but apparently the option got enabled because all controls were reversed.
14:36:32amiconnPaul_The_Nerd: Someone needs to implement screen flip for the ipod colour lcds
14:36:59amiconnIt should be perfectly possible since it is already implemented for H300, and the lcd controller is the same

14:41:15lostlogicouch. just turned on my ipod and had it at vol. -11 from using it in car stereo
14:43:53Paul_The_NerdI usually can't take over about -20 or so unless it's one of a few specific songs.
14:46:21mborus_2ndlostlogic: before I leave, I just tested the 48kHz AB problem again with the build I made to try digital recording. Here the AB repeat fails as soon as I set the "B" point. Instead of jumping to "A", the display shows the time for "A", but audio from a point in the file even after "B" is played.

14:52:11mborus_2ndNo. - aproximately 10 minutes of 192k audio. Maybe there's a problem in how I set the points: I set point A, then I forward a few minutes and then set point B.
14:56:57mborus_2ndHmm, I'll try this now without forwarding when setting the points.

15:02:03pondlifelostlogic: Well, crossfade with track skipping seems fixed now.
15:02:39pondlifelostlogic: But navigating to another track (maybe the next track) is broken, on my H300.

15:04:09mborus_2ndPoint B reached and set without forwarding to it. It was only 6 minutes. The details: File length (3:09:57) Point A 2:45:00 Point B 2:51:11. The jump back to A worked. Now let's see what happens, when B is reached.

15:18:08novimonGalois, thanks for the tip, transferring is now super fast :)
15:18:20mborus_2ndMore test results: There is a forwarding problem. I have a 15 second minimum forwarding step defined (so I can move quickly within radio shows) and in trying to navigate to the A 2:45:00 point I managed to misplace the audio also. So maybe AB is working OK

17:59:34amiconnHung while booting the installer...
17:59:43crashdamiconn: any special hardware?
18:00
18:00:19amiconnThe culprit is that ubuntu still uses kernel 2.6.12, and that doesn't cope with certain bios'es throwing apic errors
18:00:54amiconnHad the same problem with debian testing back then; trying unstable (kernel 2.6.15) fixed the problem
18:01:18amiconndmesg shows many lines like:
18:01:20amiconnAPIC error on CPU0: 40(40)
18:01:49preglowno problems like that here
18:01:59amiconnNo really special hardware, it's a HP DX5150 business microtower
18:02:36preglowcan't remember what i used to build this box anymore
18:02:49preglowi remember it's got 1 gig of ram and a athlon64 3200+, that's that :)

18:10:13amiconnMy experience is that 'testing' is really stable, and 'stable' is just old, and doesn't support anything recent

18:37:41peturregarding the 21 char limit for stored filenames: shouldn't we allow the user to edit only the filename (no path, no extension) - that way it's easier to pass a nice limit to the keyboard routine.
18:38:02amiconnprobably
18:38:05peturdisadvantage: can't save to another folder
18:38:19amiconnHmm, right
18:38:29peturright now it's impossible to enforce the 21 char limit :(
18:47:04petursaving to another folder causes issues anyway: the name gets stored but not loaded because we only look for it in the default location
18:47:34amiconnYes, but that's actually a featire
18:47:49peturit will confuse the average user when he makes an error and saves the file somewhere else
18:48:09amiconnFor other similar files (.fnt, .wps), if they're stored in their respective directory, the name gets stored in the config, so they're permanent
18:49:04amiconnHmm, but then you can't save .fnt ans wps files from within rockbox

22:44:42amiconnpreglow: Today's changes... most of it is probably the tagcache change
22:45:01amiconnLet's see if it has at least some effect...
22:45:11preglowyes, changes do affect binary size, no surprise there
22:45:40amiconnAffect, yes.
22:45:51amiconnBut there are 2 possible directions: up and down
22:45:58preglowboth will happen
22:46:13preglowdevs can't go around checking every single target and tweak and tweak every commit
22:46:16preglownothing would get done
22:46:48amiconnWe pretty much need to tweak for archos
22:47:11*amiconn sighs
22:47:17 Quit ender` (Nick collision from services.)
22:47:23preglowyes, we do
22:47:23 Nick ender1 is now known as ender` (i=ychat@84.52.165.220)
22:48:11amiconnThat doesn't necessarily mean to drop features. It means that we should code efficiently. This will help all targets, not only archos
22:48:37preglowi don't think anyone tries to code inefficiently
22:48:40amiconnOf course we should also look for additional methods. I hope to get -Os builds working
22:48:47preglowif you see a way to do something more efficiently, fix it
22:48:59preglowdidn't you do a -Os related commit a while ago?
22:49:20amiconnYes, but that was only a change to get it compiling with 3.4 and -Os
22:49:21hardeeplostlogic: here now
22:49:44amiconnThe build failed before with 'pcrel too far'
22:50:11lostlogichardeep: didn't need anything, just saying that I appreciate you fixing some of the playback related bugs I've introduced :)
22:50:17amiconnIt's a first step... I hope that there aren't too many gcc bugs to work around
22:50:42preglowamiconn: i'm sure you'll see a surprise or two...
22:51:22hardeeplostlogic: ah, np. =) can't reproduce this resume issue that the people on the boards are reporting though
22:51:24amiconnInterestingly, our recommendation of gcc 3.3.x for SH1 comes from the fact that 3.3.x produces smaller binaries than 3.4.x when using -O (or -O2)
22:51:41amiconnBut with -Os, 3.4.x is better than 3.3.x ...
22:52:13lostlogichardeep: yeah, saw the posts, I haven't looked at it yet, rewrote crossfade the same way I redid the voice mixing in pcmbuf.c, but apparently made a boo-boo, because it just data aborted on me.
22:52:21amiconnWe would save 11KB (on v1 recorder) with 3.4.6 and -Os compared to 3.3.6 and -O
22:52:35amiconnThat's 5% of the binary size...
22:52:44ender`what about 3.3.6 with -Os ?
22:52:53amiconnender`: [22:51:42] <amiconn> But with -Os, 3.4.x is better than 3.3.x ...
22:53:03ender`oh
22:53:22amiconnNot much though, about 1KB
22:53:56amiconnWhat's also interesting is that the more compact code generated with -Os is less compressible than the code generated with -O
22:54:05lostlogicbagh, arm only loading by longs is ... odd.
22:54:14preglowhmm?
22:54:18preglowyou mean alignment?
22:54:38ender`amiconn: what about the speed (cpu usage) difference?
22:54:44amiconn(using our ucl compressor), so the compressed .ajz for v1 recorder ends up a bit bigger even though the uncompressed binary is smaller
22:55:16amiconnender`: Didn't test yet. Last time I tried -Os and -O2 binaries, they crashed at boot...
22:55:32amiconnWell, -O2 with 3.3.x worked with one small fix
22:55:38preglowamiconn: but yeah, there's no reason not to use -Os, no?
22:55:53amiconnpreglow: Currently there is one: binaries crashing...
22:55:59preglowassuming that's fixed, yes
22:56:27amiconnAssuming I can fix that, there's no real reason against using -Os
22:56:31preglowbtw, did you do any more eq related cpu usage testing?
22:56:41lostlogicpreglow: I'm indexing a short pointer, so it seems to elft shift my index by 1 and then use it to load a long from the array
22:57:06preglowweird
22:57:08amiconnpreglow: No. What tests would you think should be done?
22:57:11preglowarm can load both long, short and byte
22:57:25lostlogicmaybe I'm misreading it then, yeah, I am.
22:57:34preglowamiconn: i haven't got anything in mind, just wondered if you had done anything
22:57:42preglowamiconn: just a but surprised the eq is so slow on arm
22:58:09amiconnI just wanted to know how much impact the eq has, and whether it will run realtime with mp3 when maxing out the 5022
22:58:12preglowjust seems like emac is bunches faster than the native arm multiplier
22:58:33amiconnIt does, and the result is furthermore that the eq consumes the equivalent of 15MHz
22:58:47amiconn(with all 5 bands enabled)
22:59:11lostlogicpreglow: if you have a moment, this is the problem code, line 6 is the data abort. http://pastebin.com/677588
22:59:14preglownot much more i can do for it either, without compromising sound quality
22:59:43amiconnYOu said something about 64bit multiplies? Any chance to reduce the number of 64bit multiplies?
22:59:43lostlogicpreglow: that's probably why the wolfson codec has a decent 5 band equalizer built in? (at least the specs on it seem decent)
23:00
23:00:09Ribs'lo everyone
23:00:17preglowlostlogic: well, r6 is just incremented by one, it'll be invalide sooner or later unless it's aligned
23:00:26Ribshey lostlogic −− are there any plans to use the second CPU in the iPod?
23:00:28preglowlostlogic: yeah, it seems pretty decent, just a wee bit limited
23:00:30amiconnlostlogic: The 8731 and derivates don't have any hardware tone controls :(
23:00:34preglowRibs: yes, but that's a lot of work
23:00:40Ribsah
23:00:44Ribsnot for a while then :)
23:00:46preglowindeed
23:00:58preglowamiconn: well, not really
23:01:09lostlogicpreglow: ah, I understand the problem in my code then.
23:01:26preglowamiconn: you need five multiply and accumulate instructions per sample
23:01:46preglowamiconn: if we can't use the smlal instruction, then we need to use the mla one, which again requires everything to fit in 32 bits
23:02:41preglowamiconn: and a couple of guard bits would be nice too, to avoid overflowing samples without having to do carry checks all the time, which leaves us with less than sixteen bits of audio precision
23:03:14preglowi hate the bloody arm extended multiplier unit
23:03:32preglowit uses early termination, so the time it uses is dependent on input data
23:03:35amiconnWow... Slasheri's tagcache commit speedup cuts commit time on my recorder down to less than half
23:03:50amiconn3:30 before, 1:30 now
23:03:56preglowthat is indeed very decent

23:09:44lostlogicahahaha, when I commit this pcmbuf rework, it will make the actual code faster, but the debug screen slower (8 or 10 more instructions per audio thread debug update, but a few fewer instructions in the DMA interrupt :)
23:10:23ep0chpreglow: speaking of crossfeed, on ihp the attenuation controls in the UI should be inverted? i.e. joystick up is currently making the dBs go down and vice versa
23:10:33amiconnlostlogic: What do you think how short before the dma we could mix voice with a secondary pcm buffer?
23:10:58preglowep0ch: i know, but i can't be bothered
23:11:01ep0chk
23:11:02Learlostlogic: btw, when seeking (at least mp3 for sure), it seems you've re-introduced the "display the file time before the seek for a brief moment" thing. :)
23:11:05preglowep0ch: also eq precut is like that
23:11:35ep0chahh never touched eq precut, i may have a look and post a patch
23:11:41amiconnAlso, do you think a secondary pcm buffer would make the code less complex? Iiuc you said that voice is currently handled very different depending on whether music is playing in parallel or not. That could be changed with a secondary pcm buffer, couldn't it?
23:11:57lostlogicLear: yeah, I've noticed.
23:12:29lostlogicamiconn: the voice is handled as music when music is not playing, so a secondary pcm buffer would only add complexity
23:12:37lostlogicamiconn: safe mix distance is ~1/4s
