#rockbox log for 2006-04-25

00:00:02preglowhmm
00:00:09preglowis it only on ipods that selecting a new track now works very seldom?
00:00:38preglowit shows the wps, then bombs out to the file selector
00:01:37bluebrotherwhy does the manual use xspace?
00:02:56preglowbluebrother: god knows
00:03:12preglowit's weird, it only happens when i exit to the file selector and choose anew file, not when skipping from the wps
00:03:13Bagder /whois God
00:03:17BagderGod :No such nick/channel
00:03:18sharpeeh, more like 3700%, bottom was covered up a bit.
00:03:44lostlogicpreglow: I think it's all swcodec, selecting a new file to play while audio is playing don't work none
00:03:56preglowshucks
00:03:59bluebrotherok, then I'll remove it. It may only cause additional spaces after punctuation marks, and we should use \frenchspacing if we actually want frenchspacing.
00:04:25lostlogicpreglow: that's right next on my lits of shit to fix after this crossfade insanity
00:04:40preglowlostlogic: hooray for you! hooray for brandon!

00:17:08amiconnI didn't find a single one that I would like to use...
00:17:15preglowi've found exactly one

00:25:54midkayamiconn?
00:26:02*amiconn prefers text-only with progressbar + peakmeter + standard status bar
00:26:21peturwhy the peakmeter?
00:26:36lostlogicsigh, I wish peakmeter didn't cause gapping on ipod.
00:26:38goffai kind of like next track
00:26:42peturI see no use for it unless recording
00:26:47qwmisn't that right, amiconn
00:26:48amiconnMainly to give a bit of separation
00:26:51qwmthat's what you thought.
00:26:57midkayamiconn, you said in your keyboard update that the cursor would be shown while you moved around the filename. it's not..
00:27:15amiconnMy in-car wps'es are text-only, without any bars, and with a big font
00:27:22 Quit KlrSpz ()
00:27:36preglowi don't care about peak meter at all
00:27:49preglowi'd rather make some separation with a big note symbol
00:27:49goffame either
00:27:52 Part Paul_The_Nerd
00:27:58goffalol.. i wouldn't go that far though
00:28:31amiconnThe big note symbol takes much more space than the peakmeter... and it disallows scrolling with current rockbox
00:28:42peturwe should also provide a vertical peakmeter, once we have margins :)
00:28:58amiconnI rather want a way to see the whole title
00:29:17peturtext wrapping?
00:29:17amiconnI also cannot understand why so many wps'es center the text
00:29:22preglowi'd settle for being able to scroll and keep the note...
00:29:47crashdamiconn: maybe it's a matter of choice?
00:29:52crashdisnt that what rockbox is about, after all : >

00:30:33amiconncentered text is harder to read
00:31:28amiconnimho
00:31:49midkayamiconn?
00:31:51amiconnYes, that's what rockbox is about
00:32:01amiconnmidkay: what?
00:32:26midkay[five minutes ago] <midkay> amiconn, you said in your keyboard update that the cursor would be shown while you moved around the filename. it's not..
00:32:42midkaydid i misunderstand your commit comment?
00:32:45amiconnHuh? It is shown perfectly here
00:32:58midkayi mean it blinks when you move it..
00:33:19amiconnNo, exactly the opposite
00:33:24midkayiiuc, your comment says that it should always be shown (not blink) whilst you move it?
00:34:11amiconnA blinking cursor can be irritating when moving through the text, because it will be in the 'hidden' phase from time to time, so you wouldn't know how far you already moved it
00:34:35amiconnWith my commit, the cursor always starts with its 'visible' phase after a keypress
00:34:48midkayamiconn, exactly. which is why i'm asking what's up. for me it continues blinking even after keypresses.
00:35:09amiconnYes of course
00:35:26amiconnIt should cointinue bliking if you let go the keys
00:35:29midkayi mean during keypresses.
00:35:34amiconnHmm?
00:35:41amiconnI just re-checked to make sure
00:36:07amiconnIt behaves like described on H300, mini 2g, and ondio fm
00:37:02midkayipod 5G here. selecting the input line, cursor is blinking, tapping and holding left/right both result in moving the cursor and nothing else. it continues to blink.
00:37:30amiconnOf course it continues to blink *after* pressing left/right
00:37:38midkayi mean during the press.
00:37:55midkay<amiconn> With my commit, the cursor always starts with its 'visible' phase after a keypres
00:38:06midkayi see you using 'after' here in the same way i am..
00:38:19amiconnBut while pressing left/right in quick succession (or holding left/right) it stays visible
00:38:43midkayi understand that's how it should work, but it's not working that way for me.
00:38:53amiconnI also checked on recorder

00:41:40midkaypreglow, i'm open to suggestions.. yes, it's quite touchy.. hm.. maybe you can thank lostlogic, perhaps, for his keeping-finger-on-the-wheel-triggers-button-repeat thing ;)
00:41:47preglowheh, yeah
00:41:52preglowi'm a bit ambivalent to that thing
00:41:57preglowsometimes it's great, sometimes it isn't
00:42:11midkayexactly, same here.
00:42:27midkaynice in lists.. i do *not* like it changing some settings, though.
00:42:40preglowhmm
00:42:42preglowno
00:42:49preglowi also like it in the jpeg viewer
00:42:56preglowmakes it easier to not overshoot changing zoom level
00:43:18midkaypreglow, well, i don't use the jpg viewer a lot :) i can't remember all the things i do and do not like it for, but i think the lists are about even.
00:43:21preglowbut yeah, for some settings it's not as good

00:43:39 Quit JBGood25 (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
00:43:42amiconnWell, in most places I like the wheel behaviour. But I still find the wheel a bit irritating in general
00:44:08amiconnSometimes I put my thumb on it, move it - and nothing happens
00:44:11goffaso ... did anyone fix mpc playback, or am i going to have to go back to friday or sat?
00:44:12midkayanyways, i think this is the only way to do it adequately.. you can change the value quickly, and you can fine-tune it if you need, but not too easily, and you get your +/- 2% thing.
00:44:31amiconnHave the same problem with touchpads from time to time

01:52:55midkayromanos_melodos, i told you, the rockbox bootloader has a keymapping for it: PLAY will boot linux.bin in the root of your iPod. the rest is up to you.
01:53:23romanos_melodosi'm sorry , i'm quite confused
01:53:41midkayabout what?
01:54:26romanos_melodosso, can i just download the windows ipodlinux installer without making any partitions and the installer will do everything for me?
01:54:49midkayhm, that depends on the installer.
01:55:15midkayi told you how the rockbox bootloader will get linux going for you. if you want to ask about installing iPL itself, this is not the place to ask...
01:56:08romanos_melodosi just don't want to mess everything
01:56:18romanos_melodoswhat have u done on yours?
01:56:29romanos_melodoscan u send me a link or something?
01:57:44lostlogicany coldfire users still haunting want to test a patch?
01:57:47midkayinstalled linux.bin in my root, set up the ext3 partition and unzipped pz2 and modules there. i use the rockbox bootloader. it wasn't too easy, and IMO not really worth it. if it sounds like it might be tricky, use the installer or don't use ipodlinux.
02:00
02:00:45romanos_melodoswhat if i delete rockbox and use the ipodlinux installer to install ipodlinux and then reinstall rockbox?
02:02:20romanos_melodosthe only thing that frustrates me is how the hell i'm going to manage the partitions..
02:02:37midkayif you mean reinstall the bootloader, that may work. i'm not quite familiar with what the iPL installers do, there seems to be a large number of them, all third-party..

02:03:47peturthen go ask the IPL people how to...
02:04:02romanos_melodosscrew the ipl people
02:04:05midkayromanos_melodos, the installation will probably not be a breeze. the installers will probably help, but i doubt it will work exactly as you hope.
02:04:21romanos_melodoswell..
02:04:23midkayromanos_melodos, well, screw them, but you won't get much help here. :)
02:04:33midkayso unscrew them, or figure it out..
02:04:46romanos_melodosi'll give it a shot guys and i'll let u know
02:04:52midkayBagder?
02:04:59romanos_melodosbtw , is it worth it?
02:05:06peturhahahahaha
02:05:10romanos_melodosi mean installing ipl
02:05:27romanos_melodos:P
02:05:56peturnever been near it as this is #rockbox and I have an iriver 340

02:07:34midkayromanos_melodos, it wasn't worth it for me, no, not much at all.
02:07:35peturis it bad when building for recorder that it says 'removing UCL file again, making it a fake one'
02:07:50peturI mean, did I cause it?

02:38:34sharpeokay

02:39:59hardeepwhatever the size of pointers is
02:40:18hardeepsize_t should be fine
02:40:32lostlogicshouldn't it be the size of the things the pointers point to?

02:41:05hardeepno, 'cause you're doing arithmetic on the pointers
02:41:12lostlogicthat's retarded if that's the case.

05:45:36midgey34no I don't have a remote, sorry
05:45:47gursikhlostlogic: I have h120+Lcd remote
05:45:53midgey34I've been meaning to pick one up
05:45:58lostlogicgursikh: can you build rockbox?
05:46:01gursikhyes
05:46:13lostlogicgursikh: I'll post a debugging patch in a moment.
05:46:24gursikhOk
05:46:57jncthe iPod bootloader is very good
05:47:27jnci was able to follow instructions given on rockbox docs, and install rockbox on my little sister's video iPod hardware

05:47:54biffherois there an lcd remote for the 5G ipod?
05:48:07jncshe would have never used rockbox firmware if it did not initially also allow her to use the original firmware. that was real important for adoption of using rockbox
05:48:09lostlogicmidgey34: then you can try the debug too :)
05:48:32biffherojnc: agree. that's a great aid in adoption

06:05:12gursikhnot crashing on me either
06:05:27gursikhshould i use some certain settings?

06:15:54midgey34no, the PCMBUF_TARGET_CHUNK one
06:16:15midgey34and I've gotten lockups twice
06:16:58lostlogicis that better or worse than without the patch?
06:17:16gursikhok player just keeps crashing with no message
06:17:22midgey34hard to tell, it just freezes and requires a reset
06:17:39lostlogicgursikh: you have a logf build on the player and nothing is displaying logf-wise on the remote?
06:17:55gursikhnpe, it crashes, and display on remote goes blank
06:17:59lostlogicmidgey34: nod. wtf.

06:59:30Hotfusionim thinking about getting audio technica ATH-EM7GM or sennheiser PX-100. Something around $50. Both look good.

06:59:42scott666whats wrong with babelfish?

07:00:08Paul_The_NerdATH, not AHE
07:00:42Hotfusionit seems Audio Tech. has a good reputation from the stuff they come out with

07:44:08zigfordI'm just interested in playing with the rockbox source code. I've got the env setup thus far.
07:44:15goffa_they put rockbox on there
07:45:51zigfordGot an iPod 4g (grey screen) and want to help out.

07:46:26goffa_end of the month is near.. feature freeze should end soon :)
07:46:38Mikachuit won't actually end until it's stable
07:46:42*B4gder suspects an extension
07:46:47*LinusN too

07:47:34B4gderjuneday!

07:47:58*B4gder played all Rockbox games yday
07:48:16zigfordUnfortunately I've no "C" experience. I'm a keen hacker but have never been down to the programming level. I'm hoping this project might be a good place to start.
07:48:28*B4gder was stuck behind an evil proxy and nothing better to do
07:48:31LinusNgoffa_: nah, just repeating a famous quote
07:49:09B4gderzigford: I'd advice you to start out writing/fixing plugins, as that's kind of the simplest place to start your Rockbox hacking adventures
07:49:30Bg3rgoffa_: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/GoldenQuotes
07:50:21goffa_i like the 2nd quote better :)
07:50:51goffa_i'd almost consider an ipod now

07:51:01B4gderunfortunately I can't find the "they're only making rubbish" mail from the past

07:51:38Paul_The_NerdThere were probably some rather nice quotes in the slashdot comments.
07:52:01B4gderyeah, like "why would they do this when ipod's UI is perfect?"
07:52:03goffa_that was a battle royale of "itunes is awesome" or "itunes sucks"
07:52:47goffa_and... "you are only talking about a music store" battle
07:52:47Paul_The_Nerdzigford: There's also a thread in the forums talking about the most popular feature requests Once you get a little better with C you might take an interest in those, as many aren't a *huge* effort. A few even have associated patches that probably just need to be worked on to make them compile (as they're out of date) and then find out what's keeping them from being included.
07:53:10RotAtoRB4gder: it this the rubbish quote?: http://www.rockbox.org/mail/archive/rockbox-archive-2002-09/0586.shtml
07:53:13goffa_alarm clock seems to be the most requested piece of fluff
07:53:27B4gderah! yes it is

07:54:10scott666hasnt there been an alarm feature for years? or is that only on the archos's
07:54:10RotAtoRi think we also need the linusn quote about wma that was on misticriver
07:54:25goffa_i dunno

07:56:04B4gderit still makes me laugh
07:56:09goffa_yeah
07:57:09Paul_The_Nerdscott666: Only on Archos. Nobody's got the feature enabled on H300 or iPods (if it can be, I understand it depends on the RTC hardware and such)
07:57:44 Part Paul_The_Nerd
07:58:07goffa_i didn't buy an alarm clock and i dont want to play doom :)

08:28:20kaiwaiwell, anyway, back to the problem; I have two directories listed at the top, blondie and Coldplay, I enter one, see all my music listed, then go and play a song. The problem is when I try to get back to my directory listing, I can't :(
08:28:43kaiwaithe problem is made worse that just trying to get back to the music files in blondie is a saga and a half
08:28:44amiconnlostlogic: The freeze with crossfade on coldfire is still reproducable with your latest fix :-( With a logf build as per your yesterday's instructions: 'NULL fade out chunk' in the second place in pcmbuf.c

08:32:09kaiwaihmm
08:32:13kaiwaithats the problem
08:32:20kaiwaithe f*cking thing won't go back if the song is paused
08:32:29kaiwaisomeone needs to fix that bug
08:33:05B4gderyou mean it works when it plays but not when paused?
08:33:11Paul_The_Nerdkaiwai: Define "back"
08:33:14kaiwainope, it works when stopped
08:33:17Paul_The_Nerdkaiwai: I can still browse just fine with my music paused.
08:33:25kaiwaiwell, mine can't
08:33:35Paul_The_Nerdkaiwai: What *happens* when you press "Left" in the file tree then?
08:33:36kaiwaiI can only get back to my listed songs in the blondie directory
08:33:51kaiwaiok, I'll play something, pause it
08:34:14B4gderyou don't need to pause it, you can go back to the file browser while the music is playing
08:34:25kaiwaiadoesn't even work
08:34:32B4gderwhat?
08:34:40Paul_The_Nerdkaiwai: Okay, tell me exactly what buttons you're pressing, and what happens when you do
08:34:41kaiwaiplayed the song, menu, goes back to this settings menu

08:35:24Paul_The_NerdYou haven't actually answered a question that's been asked of you
08:35:26kaiwaione is called Blondie
08:35:30Paul_The_NerdAnd you have said that you're pressing the wrong button
08:35:30kaiwaithe other is Coldplay
08:35:36B4gderthen answer Paul's questions
08:36:18kaiwaiyes, if I don't play a song, I can go back between the root and blondie directory

08:36:31Paul_The_Nerdkaiwai: I didn't ask that.
08:36:47Paul_The_Nerdkaiwai: I asked what happens when you're in the filetree while music is paused or playing, and you press left.
08:37:12Paul_The_Nerdkaiwai: But then, since you can't get to the filetree by way of the "Menu" key, I'm sorta curious why you're pressing that.

08:40:49Jungti1234hello? http://jungti1234.netcci.net/rockbox/dump%20060425-001448.PNG
08:40:57Paul_The_Nerdkaiwai: It works fine for everyone else. Maybe your button is just a bit gummy.
08:41:05kaiwaino, its the speed of it
08:41:05Jungti1234It's bug.
08:41:12kaiwaiit takes a while
08:41:14B4gderand without dir cache you need to wait for disk spinup
08:41:15kaiwaia little too 'while'
08:41:25Paul_The_Nerdkaiwai: It happens instantly for me, and most other people. As I said, maybe your button's a bit worn.
08:41:25kaiwaihow do you dircache it?
08:41:55kaiwaihow does a worn button result in a slow change?
08:41:59kaiwaiit either works or doesn't
08:42:00Paul_The_Nerdkaiwai: Ah yes, disk spin up. Forgot about that. As for Dircache, that and many other topics like "Basic Controls" are covered in the manual
08:42:04LinusNJungti1234: nice bug :-)
08:42:09Jungti1234:)
08:42:10kaiwaihmm
08:42:12kaiwaioh well,
08:42:15Paul_The_Nerdkaiwai: Well, you *were* saying that the button wasn't doing anything at all for a while.
08:42:18kaiwaiatleast I can play my oggs
08:42:31kaiwaiPau* because the speed was so crap-tacular
08:42:33B4gdermidkay: fixed, thanks!
08:42:58kaiwaianyway, all done
08:42:59midkayB4gder, cool :) no problem..
08:43:01LinusNkaiwai: "anything at all" to me also means "never"
08:43:01kaiwaioff for dinner
08:43:06Paul_The_Nerdkaiwai: Anyway, if you use dircache the contents of the filetree will cache in ram and load much more quickly

08:48:41Paul_The_NerdThe iPod Mini pictures still have one *glaring* flaw
08:49:03midkayB4gder, that reminds me.. any plans on changing the "open source jukebox firmware" on the main site and logo? it's for far more than the archoses by now... might be a little misleading is all.
08:49:05scorchethe blue?
08:49:10Paul_The_NerdThe Rockbox logo is grayscale... One a _blue_ background, yes. :)
08:49:12midkayPaul_The_Nerd, the more-than-4-shades?
08:49:15midkayoh. haha.
08:49:21scorche=)
08:49:24midkaythe logo is not the same anyways..
08:49:37B4gderPaul_The_Nerd: hehe, true
08:49:52B4gderthe mini pics are indeed bad mockups
08:49:55Paul_The_Nerdmidkay: Yeah, but you can pretend about the logo. It'd be pretty impressive if we managed to get blue out of the LCD.
08:50:13midkayPaul_The_Nerd, or i could whip up a correct one as far as background and logo :)
08:50:24Paul_The_NerdHehehe, or that. :-P

08:52:27midkayamiconn, i mean lighten it a little..
08:52:57linuxstbThe screen is no different to all the other greyscale targets... I say keep it as it is.
08:53:00amiconnIt's already lightened a lot, even though I had the backlight enabled during the scan
08:53:07B4gderhehe
08:53:11midkayhm, if you wish :)
08:53:19amiconnThe silver is so bright that the lcd was almost black
08:53:46midkayhm, looks rather nice lighter.. i could size it down and provide a standard and lighter version..
08:54:42B4gderI put amiconn's version there now until we see midkay's attempt
08:55:17midkaycool.. few mins should be all.

08:56:26B4gderI went back to wired mouse too, I couldn't be annoyed with cordless
08:56:34Hotfusionuntil you drop it, or the optical goes out, pull the cord/yank from the computer
08:56:39midkayB4gder, exactly.. it goes out only at opportune moments.. once when i was right in the middle of an intense multiplayer FPS game a while back.. now when i'm about to get into some groovy photoshopping.. :(
08:56:41Hotfusion:)
08:56:51midkay*damn*... *searches for replacements*
08:56:52scorchei find that a cord is more annoying
08:56:57amiconnI'll replace the H300 image with a scan in a few minutes
08:57:11B4gdernice
08:57:13amiconnThis scan required heavy adjustment of the lcd
08:57:30amiconn...even though it was scanned with maximum backlight brightness
08:57:50scorchemidkay: and having a battery charger by your feet with replacements at the ready is nice too ;)
08:58:14midkayscorche, i bet it *would* be if i had such a setup. :)
08:58:18Paul_The_NerdHotfusion: Optical can go out on *any* mouse though. As well as dropping it. So the only real concern is pulling out the cord, which is fine if you're decent with cable management.

09:03:01midkayi think a few others could use work, too.
09:03:24midkaymost of the color LCD ones look rather fabricated.
09:03:38B4gderI think they all are
09:03:38amiconnThere.
09:04:00amiconnH300 doesn't look fabricated anymore
09:04:18midkayit doesn't?
09:04:21midkay:S
09:04:56midkaywhat color is h100's backlight?
09:04:59midkaygreen or bluish-white?
09:05:34amiconnblue-violet-ish
09:05:38amiconnRather dark
09:06:04amiconnmidkay: Check the devicechart...
09:06:27B4gderI updated the daily/cvs table h300 image too
09:06:33amiconnAnd reload, since firefox seems to really like cached files
09:06:49midkayamiconn, ah, i did reload, looks .. well, better in a way, but the greenish LCD sticks out a bit.
09:06:56amiconnThat scan was sitting on my hd for a while...
09:08:05midkayjust an idea: http://img82.imageshack.us/img82/7383/h100t8ct.jpg
09:08:09amiconnmidkay: Well, it's very close to the actuall impression
09:08:48amiconnIs that meant to be backlighted?
09:08:54midkayamiconn, the others probably need readjustment..
09:08:59midkayamiconn, yes, i guess :)
09:09:53amiconnThe backlight colour is considerably off
09:10:08midkayquite possibly, not familiar with it.
09:10:11amiconnMaybe photos would be better than scans?
09:11:08amiconnScans have the advantange of the high resolution and the front being distortion free, but the brightness relations are way off for parts like the lcd
09:13:53midkayamiconn, so.. modified scans? :)
09:13:55amiconnI need to find something usable as a neutral grey background, then I'll take photos of all my units, and we can compare
09:14:07amiconnmidkay: The scans are already modified
09:14:41amiconnFor instance, the H300 lcd needed massive brightness and gamma correction, and also moire reduction
09:14:47midkayah..
09:15:11amiconnPhotos will probably give a more natural impression
09:16:10B4gderyes
09:16:20B4gderbut its often rather hard to make a good close-up photo
09:17:00Paul_The_NerdWell, for an icon that small it doesn't necessarily have to be close-up.
09:17:07B4gdertrue
09:17:16Paul_The_NerdJust in good focus, and without flash-glare
09:17:52amiconnYou need a uniform background, proper lighting, and must not go too close, but rather use longer focal lengths
09:18:26amiconnNever use flash for that
09:18:50midkayhm. can't quite reproduce the stamp effect i got on the devcon logo.
09:19:17peturI could probably take a good pic of my h340, don't have any other target
09:19:49midkaynevertheless! delicious forums logo. http://img159.imageshack.us/img159/206/rockbox350for1eh.gif
09:19:57amiconnI can provide 7 target pics, but my recorder pic won't show the true original look due to the white backlight mod

11:46:48ashridahor is it GPL+exceptionforourcodecs ?

11:47:30ashridahstuff even
11:48:16Zagorashridah: bah, you guessed right. the codecs still appear to be restricted.
11:48:23Zagorok, no news then. :-(
11:48:29B4gderhow crappy
11:48:45B4gderso much for "new easier license"
11:49:02Zagor"you can now distribute half of this code much easier"

12:41:14lostlogicdoes arm just not care if you access random memory, but m68k does or something?
12:41:30preglowhm? it was an out of bounds thing?
12:42:04preglownone of them should care if you access random memory
12:42:34lostlogicI had two legitimate bugs that should have caused any arch to point to and then try to dereference (fff->blah) NULL... m68k crashes every time, but not arm
12:42:55Paul_The_Nerdlostlogic: I *think* the "MPC / Wavpack / MP3" not playing posts recently in the iRiver thread are the crossfade bug in a slightly different guise. I had my player do what they described (freeze 3 seconds from the end of the first song) then reset the settings (realized I'd left crossfade on from a recent test for you) and it seems to be playing fine.
12:43:24lostlogicPaul_The_Nerd: well good, try to reproduce with the latest CVS :)
12:43:53Paul_The_NerdYou had to commit like, 15 seconds after I built

12:48:42wehnanyone good with bash scripting here?, trying to to a recursive VBRfix

12:49:11 Join webguest81 [0] (n=5087d426@labb.contactor.se)
12:49:33lostlogicwehn: why not just use find . -name '*.mp3' -exec VBRfix {} \;
12:49:47webguest81I only use xfade if I have shuffle enabled, otherwise I never use it
12:50:02wehnI saw that in the man page but strugled to figure it out. i'll have another look...
12:50:09lostlogicwebguest81: well, does the latest CVS fix it on your (I assume) coldfire target?
12:50:20Paul_The_NerdCrossfade always sounded too unnatural for me. Like, the songs were too impatient.
12:50:36webguest81one sec and I'll test it, need to wake everything up :)
12:50:39lostlogicI dont' use it either.
12:50:51wehnlostlogic: problem is spaces interpreted as end of line rather than "\ "
12:51:20lostlogicwehn: you can also change your IFS if you want to do the for file in `find method.
12:51:36lostlogicbut personally I'd just do it with the find exec, because that should work regardless
12:51:45wehnIFS?
12:51:52lostlogicinternal field separator
12:51:57lostlogicis how bash separates fields on the commandline
12:52:04lostlogicand by default space is one such character
12:52:19lostlogicif you change it to only separate by newline, then the fields won't be separated on the spaces.
12:52:19LinusNfind . -name "*.mp3" | xargs VBRfix
12:52:30wehnahh. but i'll try the exec method
12:52:30lostlogicLinusN: will break just as much with spaces in names, IIRC
12:52:48wehnLinus: I tried that but the vbrfix command line is:..
12:52:58wehnvbrfixc -lameinfo $file $file
12:53:10LinusNah
12:53:11wehnman xargs confused me..
12:53:20pondlifelostlogic: Erm, there's a new (non-crashing) crossfade bug...
12:53:38lostlogicpondlife: oh?
12:53:40pondlifeThe fade-in isn't played properly.
12:53:51lostlogicdescribe, since I rewrote the fade in yesterday :)
12:54:03Paul_The_Nerdlostlogic: I was about to tell you that the fix didn't work. Then I realized that somehow I forgot to CVS up before building. Sorry. Umm... Lemme go try the *actual* update
12:55:28lostlogicpondlife: if you tell me that it starts to fade in, and then stops, and resumes fading in after the fade out is complete, that's because it has a buffer underrun sorta doohicker on mixing space
12:55:28pondlifeHard to describe, but part of the fade in isn't played. Try both delays set to 0, and fade in/out durations of 1 and 2 seconds respectively..
12:56:56lostlogicI could probably make it less 'twitchy' on triggering that underrun condition, but it would risk a really nasty gappy situation where part of the fade in is lost entirely (is that better than what I did?)
12:57:11preglowi never understood the crossfade settigns...
12:57:20Paul_The_Nerdlostlogic: Quote from the forums "This newest CVS build seems like an improvement. I'm at the 4th song now without a freeze. Thats a shuffled playlist with crossfade enabled. The last builds were all freezing at the first track change with crossfade on, but worked without crossfade."

12:59:38lostlogicpondlife: first half or last half?

13:00:29preglowPaul_The_Nerd: but what, does wavpack and mp3 have trouble too?
13:00:32preglowdoesn't seem like it here
13:00:32pondlifeNot sure - first I think.
13:00:45pondlifeIt's definitely has a "half" feeling about it!

13:15:37amiconnOr rather, it depends where you do it
13:15:47lostlogicwow, skipping backward and forward repeatedly does seem to still have a bug thta can eventually cause a counter overflow.
13:16:27ravonHow often is the simulator used to test plugins?
13:17:02B4gderravon: very
13:17:09Paul_The_Nerdravon: Usually just for general stuff (to see how the screen will look on different targets), but it's always a good idea to find someone with a real one of the player for a final test if you can.
13:17:13ravonB4gder: Tried Brickmania, for example?
13:17:27ravonIt's segfaulting left and right with all kinds of plugins.
13:17:34B4gderfeel free to submit patches
13:17:53ravonWell, that's what I need the simulator for :)
13:17:59B4gderI've used the sim to develop and hack on plugins and the core since years back
13:18:08MoosB4gder: hi, any luck for the X5 LCD partial updates?
13:18:10webguest81amiconn, thanks, it does unshuffle if done during playback

13:18:53B4gderMoos: yes, but I'm holding it off until I've seen what amiconn is up to in that area ;-)

13:19:43webguest81amiconn, it unshuffles from quick screen
13:19:47amiconnOne method unshuffles the playlist, the other does not. Don't remember which one does what atm
13:20:02amiconnAh, no, I confused my own fixes
13:20:16amiconnIt *used* to be different until I fixed that...
13:20:28webguest81if playback is sopped then it doesn't unshuffle the dynamic playlist
13:20:35amiconnyes
13:21:03webguest81rockbox is just to clever :)
13:21:04Moospreglow: the author of musepack patch isn't aware that we don't use malloc?
13:21:27Moosthe *best* playlist concept at least ;)
13:21:43preglowi have no idea
13:22:00preglowprobably not
13:22:13webguest81the cheery on the cake would be the playlist catalog patch, it would really kick ass as the yanks would say

13:31:06MoosB4gder/LinusN: what's your thought about using some of extra IRAM space on X5 for the codecs or something else when the LCD driver will be reworked, cause actually iirc all the extra IRAM we have with X5 is for LCD frame buffer?
13:31:57B4gderwell, if we get more IRAM free and someone identifies suitable suspects to move there, then sure we move 'em
13:32:59MoosI'm wondering which way could be the more "batterie friendly"? :)
13:33:22B4gderthere are only one way really:
13:33:35B4gderlower the CPU use by optimizing functions we use often
13:34:12B4gderand moving functions/data to IRAM is one way of optimizing for speed
13:35:32Moosyep, what's about LCD vs codecs?
13:36:02pondlifelostlogic: oops, sorry - I didn't have a patch together so thought e-mail was best (better than putting code in the wiki anyway)
13:36:22B4gderMoos: what counts is the total, LCD + codecs and how long we can run without boosting and how much we can make the CPU sleep
13:36:26ravonlinuxstb_: You're right. It _does_ work with a vanilla checkout.
13:36:46MoosB4gder: let's hope the max of things will fit :)
13:37:41lostlogicpondlife: no biggie, you were right on the track of the bug... ;)

13:40:45lostlogicpondlife: i've identified the cause of the latest bug.
13:40:55lostlogicand it does indeed only happen when the fade in is shorter than fade out.
13:41:03MoosB4gder: yeah, but about the "shutting off the LCD" one option for configure this could be fine, cause the current way is good for see LCD w/o backlight, maybe one timiing option that we could reuse for all capable LCDs?

14:50:52Genre9mp3I was wondering if we could have RDS Radio with non RDS Radio chips... I have a strange idea and I want your opinion..
14:50:56preglowGenre9mp3: no
14:52:34Genre9mp3But, what about if we could record realtime (FM Recording) and then process the signal to retrieve the RDS information?
14:52:36preglowMoos: http://www.pvv.org/~thomj/rockbox/rockbox-x5-musepack-patch.zip
14:52:41preglowGenre9mp3: you can't
14:52:48Genre9mp3why's that?
14:52:50preglowGenre9mp3: the rds info is on a subcarrier which is not extracted
14:52:55preglowit's not interleaved in the audio
14:53:23Genre9mp3Oh....I thought it was just over the 20khz
14:53:41Moospreglow: ok I'll test it now, something special you want I test, or just seeking...?
14:53:50ravonomg, it works. Yay!!
14:54:15preglowMoos: just general musepack listening
14:54:20preglowMoos: skip around, seek a little, listen a little
14:54:30Moosk
14:54:31preglowGenre9mp3: well, i dunno, try recording fm and see
14:54:43Moosravon: your NES thing?
14:54:44preglowGenre9mp3: if there's something funky at around 20khz, then perhaps we can do something about it
14:54:49ravonMoos: yeah :D
14:54:49preglowbut i'd expect it to be filtered away
14:54:59Moosravon: congrates
14:55:01Moos:)
14:55:20peturhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_Data_System
14:55:36petur57kHz subcarrier
14:55:37ravonMoos: Works with 8bit in the emulator, but it's better than nothing. Gonna try it on the iAudio.
14:55:54Mooshehe :)
14:56:08Genre9mp3Audio frequencies are not filtered in wav format, right?
14:56:25preglowthat depends on the source
14:56:35preglowa 57khz subcarrier is almost 100% certainly filtered away
14:57:57Genre9mp3So if 57Khz is not filtered away in wav the idea would "theoritically" work?
14:58:20preglowi don't think you understand how this works
14:58:27preglowwe don't just record a wav straight from the air
14:58:31preglowit needs to be demodulated first
14:58:34preglowand that involved a lot of filtering
14:58:52Genre9mp3The FM radio chip does that?

15:02:24 Join whatboutbob [0] (n=cbd6595d@labb.contactor.se)
15:02:25amiconnIn order to capture rds without a specialised chip, we would need to record with a sample rate of at least 120kHz, which isn't possible, and then digitally filter the signal in realtime, which is also impossible
15:02:25peturalready filtered and demodulated out of the subcarrier
15:02:53Moospreglow: seeking works like a charm, but still the end of track bug like without the patch
15:03:02amiconn(and of course the fm chip must not filter out high frequencies, but it almost surely does
15:03:16preglowMoos: don't know why that happens
15:03:34Mooslostlogic rework, no?
15:03:37XavierGrI told you that you were wrong Genre9mp3! hahaha
15:03:52Moospreglow: it was the last touched this
15:03:56preglowamiconn: the 57khz subcarrier isn't sampled like that
15:04:17Genre9mp3OK....thanks for the information....I'll just forget about the idea
15:04:23preglowamiconn: if we were lucky, they might be lazy with the filtering and we'd find it placed randomly in one of the channels
15:04:29preglowamiconn: but at around 20-30khz
15:05:02amiconnThey are most likely not lazy with filtering

15:07:54Moospreglow: please commit this patch man, that really rocks :)
15:07:57preglowamiconn: it has been found out that musepack has a max frame dependency
15:08:33preglowamiconn: also, to reduce the danger of screaming noise on seek resume, all scalefactors are reset to their minimum value, so that any scale factors that have not been set won't be (very) active
15:08:41amiconnUh? I thought the musepack people would know such things...
15:08:48preglowyou'd be surprised...

15:12:10peturto end the discussion: the h300 tuner chip filter starts at 22.5 kHz ;)

15:13:19Genre9mp3petur: OK then...
15:13:26preglow31 frames, yes
15:13:47preglowlinuxstb: no, you need to decode 31 frames if you want to be sure of no screeching bugs

15:35:11XavierGrlostlogic: what do you mean smooth? I am just saying that while track changes are a little slower from the filebrowser I don't hear any sqeaks or pops.
15:35:20lostlogicagabus: so far we have a zero brick ratio, so haven't found a way to screw it up beyond being able to just restore with the apple utilities.
15:35:35XavierGrlostlogic: I don't use any DSP
15:35:43lostlogicXavierGr: right, a manual track change for me is completely gapless, with no pops, screeches, or anything.
15:36:02agabusashridah - sweet, I so wanna try RockBox when i get my new ipod, but I was worried i might brick it. but if there's always a way back, then i'll definately try it
15:36:03lostlogicXavierGr: and what target?
15:36:08XavierGrH300
15:36:55XavierGrAs I said changing track with left/right is much faster that filebrowser but I can hear artifacts.
15:37:17TeaSeaWhat's the brick rate for H3xx and the X5?
15:37:22lostlogicTeaSea: zero
15:37:22XavierGrwhile on file browser the change is slower but perfect. (no clicks or pops)
15:37:34TeaSealostlogic: Awesome.

15:37:58TeaSeaAha
15:38:06lostlogicXavierGr: yes, I understand what you are saying, but I can't reproduce it, can you find out if all coldfire users have this, or just you?

15:38:43XavierGrlostlogic: I can test on my H140 too.
15:38:47lostlogicXavierGr: please do
15:39:28agabusbut if a device gets bricked, there's still a way back right?
15:39:36 Join snake952 [0] (n=gf@202.130.204.224)
15:39:43lostlogicagabus: no, brick means it has to be sent in.
15:39:51XavierGragabus: no if it is bricked, it is the end of story
15:39:59snake952hey
15:40:08snake952why didnt rockbox work on my H320
15:40:13XavierGrunless you have proper hardware that will let you reflash the memory
15:40:25snake952i just pressed update firmware
15:40:28agabusdam. will apple fix it if it gets bricked from rockbox?
15:40:36XavierGrsnake952: didn't work?
15:40:45snake952it didnt do anything
15:40:49snake952when i pressed yes
15:40:53lostlogicagabus: unknown, nobody's actually had it get bricked to find out
15:40:56snake952nothing happened
15:40:57JdGordonhey Bagder, any news on when the firmware file is being moved into the .rockbox folde?
15:41:02peturagabus: for ipods there's a tool from apple to fix it
15:41:03XavierGragabus: probably no, but this is higly unlikely.
15:41:26agabuspetur - oh?
15:41:31lostlogicagabus: the ipods have a flash based emergency mode which we never touch, so it is highly unlikely that rockbox can do anything non-recoverable.
15:41:49Mikachupetur: not if it's bricked
15:41:52snake952any idea?
15:41:54Mikachuthat's the definition of bricked
15:42:00peturthe only issue there is: if you have a hardware failure and send it in, they'll tell you you voided your warranty
15:42:09lostlogicthat is what the utility from apple uses, but that's not bricked, that's jut rockbox not working right, or original firmware scrwered up... bricked would be if we somehow made it so it couldn't even power on into that emergency flash routine.
15:42:21XavierGrsnake952: did you patched an official firmware succesfully?
15:42:38snake952im doing that now to see
15:43:04agabusdo people have many complains about the newest 60gig video ipod using rockbox?
15:43:15agabuscomplaints*
15:44:04XavierGrsnake: use the firmware patcher on an iriver firmware, then put the firmware on your player and upgrade like normal. Then all you need is a rockbox build to put on the unit. Make sure you read the wiki for details.
15:44:13snake952where do i get the official firmware?
15:44:13lostlogicagabus: of course they do
15:44:43Mikachuthey mostly want to know how to get doom running

15:45:25snake952any one know?
15:45:39agabusfair enough. well i don't care about doom, i want RockBox so i can play OGG files and use the ipod as a portable hard-drive (easier to put music on from linux)
15:46:30snake952im lost
15:46:50snake952i convert a video for my H320 and it says it cant support the video and skips it
15:46:51lostlogicagabus: does that fine, the battery performance is much worse than stock firmware though.
15:47:37XavierGrsnake: video is not suppported on Rockbox for H300. I suggest open a thread on MisticRiver for these kind of questions
15:47:54snake952im going back to the official one
15:48:23agabuslostlogic - hmm I figured that might be the case, so what I might do is have RockBox installed so that from linux I can drag and drop files, and then use the method to make the official firmware scan for the mp3 files and use official for most music
15:48:31XavierGrsnake: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome?topic=IriverBoot
15:48:34petursnale952: if you had read the wiki, you would have seen the links to official fw: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IriverBoot
15:48:47lostlogicXavierGr: track changes are definitely pop/click/squeak free for me, I've just been skipping all over trying to reproduce another bug and have thusly failed to reproduce that bug or yours :-P
15:48:59snake952then whats it for?
15:49:16lostlogicagabus: not familiar with anything to do with the stock firmware, not used it ever.

15:56:43TeaSeahttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RTFM <−− Read this
15:56:55lostlogicPaul_The_Nerd: do you have pops/artifacts when manually skipping tracks on your coldfire?
15:57:19peturplease read the fortran manual?
15:57:23TeaSeaYes
15:57:24TeaSeaPrecisely.
15:57:38TeaSeaThe FORTRAN manual is less of a manual, ore of a guide on how to live your life.
15:57:46Paul_The_NerdWhat's the problem?
15:57:49peturgoodie, thanks for the tip!
15:57:57Paul_The_Nerdlostlogic: Gimme a second. I don't normally manually skip tracks. Also, is it okay if I'm using the first pcmbuf.c change that fixed the crossfade freeze, or should I update first?
15:58:04 Quit quobl (Remote closed the connection)
15:58:08*petur wanders off in search of a fortran manual
15:58:22lostlogicPaul_The_Nerd: I don't think it will matter as long as you have crossfade _off_ for the test.
15:58:43XavierGrlostlogic: I get the same reaction with H140. left/right file change is quick but has audio artifacts, while filebrowser change is slower (not a problem for me) but is perfect.
15:59:24Paul_The_Nerdlostlogic: Nothing noticeable. Maybe a very very very small one here and there that's probably just the contrast between the two songs. That's <start playback, let song play for ~1 second, skip, wait until I hear audio, skip, hear audio, skip>
15:59:35JdGordonTeaSea: i love how under see also on thatt wiki page it has unix man pages..
15:59:42lostlogicPaul_The_Nerd: get it on buffer and see if you get artifacts.
16:00
16:00:06Paul_The_Nerdok
16:00:17TeaSeaJdGordon: Heh yes
16:00:31snake952its still saying not supported
16:00:43Mikachurockbox doesn't support videos
16:00:52snake952im not using it
16:00:59snake952im using the original firmwar
16:00:59Mikachuokay, then you're in the wrong channel guy
16:01:01snake952*ware
16:01:07snake952theres no where else
16:01:37Paul_The_Nerdlostlogic: Okay, same thing. If it's in a silent or quiet part of the song, nothing. If it's in an active part of the song, *maybe* an artifact. I think though it's just contrast because of the sudden change. It's a very crisp change to the next track.
16:02:01ashridahsnake952: one presumes you've already tried the guides and forums on misticriver.net ?
16:02:13Paul_The_Nerdsnake952: If you have problems with your original H300 firmware, contact iRiver support. Clearly, we did not write it and would not have the knowledge or resources available to us that they do.

16:04:10petursnake952: did you upgrade to 1.30?
16:04:25leftrightlostlogic, I had a stranges during playback, I skip and delete files/tracks extensively, after doing this for a few albums, playback got confused, it would still play a bit of the previous song before playing the selected song. the wps was acuurate and up to date, playback seemed disorientated. hopes this makes sense
16:04:43snake952no
16:04:45snake9521.25
16:04:50snake952but dont forget im in aus
16:04:58Paul_The_Nerdlostlogic: Maybe *maybe* a very small click. Sometimes. But it seems to be much more dependent on the actual audio than anything else, and requires a *lot* of hard-rock style noise.
16:05:03XavierGrlostlogic: so other H300, H140 users dont encounter these pops,clicks?
16:05:27pondlifeI'm just waiting for my H340 to charge...
16:05:56petursnake952: you won't get more help here, post your question at misticriver and prepare to get RTFM'd there ...
16:05:57Paul_The_NerdXavierGr: Yup. I'm testing on an H120 right now.
16:05:57goffahow long does it take a 340 to charge on average?
16:05:58lostlogicleftright: define skip / delete
16:06:19pondlifegoffa: About 2-3 hours here
16:06:27goffanot bad
16:06:29XavierGrPaul: and track change with left/right is perfect for you?
16:06:40goffathinking about getting one
16:07:25lostlogicleftright: I think that will end up being the same bug as the one I'm currently chasing, fwiw.
16:08:12leftrightlostloigc, I start listening to track 1 in a new album, I dont like the track skip to the next, whilst the next is playing I go and delete previous file that i dont like, and so on
16:08:12Paul_The_NerdXavierGr: Every now and then a *very* small click, that I think is actually just the sudden change from a loud song to a quiet one.
16:08:30Paul_The_NerdXavierGr: But easily 90% or more of the changes have nothing noticeable at all about them.

16:47:03lostlogicamiconn: no, I haven't in a while.
16:48:08lostlogicpondlife: selecting a new track from the browser creates a new playlist which must be started, which is currently a whole different situation than a next track skip. That's not to say that it should stay that way, but that's how it is. My general thought on fixing new track from browser is to make it act a lot like a manual track skip.

16:58:30amiconnAll rockbox needs to boot is a fat32 primary partition. It doesn't care about partition active flags or other stuff in the mbr
16:58:35Mindship-03imagine I installed grub and the device wouldn't boot anymore!
16:58:38lostlogicfreqmod: yes. actually that's what it tries to do now, but fails.
16:58:55freqmodit works when i do it manually
16:59:24amiconnYou can partition your device as you like. Rockbox will use the first fat32 partition it can find
17:00
17:00:37Mindship-03amiconn: I know, I have it highly customized, but still use a floppy to boot (my computer does no USB boot, so I didn't need it). But at school USB boot is supported, and there are no floppy-drives!
17:00:47lostlogicfreqmod: of course −− the problem is the sequence of events that happens in this case. It's a bug in how stop is processed vs. a 'automatic stop'. I may need another condition to identify automatic vs. user controlled stops for this as well as another bug.
17:02:08lostlogiccould be that just invalidating the buffer, changing the playlist, forcing a buffer fill, and then triggering a next track event will be the better way to handle selection of a new file from the browser.
17:02:57Paul_The_NerdYou could always clear all the playlist entries but the current one, then insert the new playlist, then do a next track even, and then delete the previously playing song from the playlist, just to make things horribly complicated. :-P

17:50:14GargamaleI had the same problems with 0423 and 0424
17:50:21GargamaleBut I bet its the voice file thing

18:00
18:00:10lostlogicGargamale: I'm working on crossfade at this second, so you might want to grab a bleeding edge later before you look into it.

18:02:01lostlogicuhh... what he said.
18:02:13GargamaleBleeding edges arent compiled, though, are they?

18:03:10amiconnlostlogic: Afaik the dailies are built at 6:00 am cet (or maybe cest during summer)
18:03:25lostlogicah, that's not so bad... 11pm my time
18:04:21lostlogicI reconfigured the flush_crossfade function like 123123098 times in the last day in order to try and avoid a goto. IT"S GETTING A DAMN GOTO NOW *cough* to improve crossfade performance and stuff.

18:05:58Paul_The_NerdMy big concern is how many people think the dailies are somehow magically "more stable" and judge rockbox performance on a bad daily
18:06:06lostlogicmmhmm
18:06:07GargamaleO no
18:06:13GargamaleI know the stable builds are stable

18:06:26GargamaleI know those are the only "stable"
18:06:31Paul_The_NerdActually, even 2.5 has a few complaints levied against it.

18:23:15GargamalePaul_The_Nerd: yeah its called you sat on the FF button, j.k.
18:23:18lostlogicPaul_The_Nerd: probably relates to having previously confused playback buffer, recommend stop playback and resume.
18:23:38scott666_Gargamale: double clicking and going in and choosing the ipod results in the same error
18:23:45RotAtoRLooks like there's some musepack testing to be done?

18:24:07preglowdinnertiume!
18:24:07lostlogicPaul_The_Nerd: and that is also on my list of wtfs −− sometimes skips are still not landing on the right buffer used / buffer read point and its resulting in varoius stupidity.
18:24:07Paul_The_Nerdlostlogic: I haven't pressed a button since I started playback
18:24:12lostlogicoh...
18:24:14RotAtoRpreglow: sure :)
18:24:14Mooslostlogic: is possible you introduced this musepack bug?
18:24:17lostlogicuhh, then no, there isn't a bug open for it.
18:24:36lostlogicMoos: It's vaguely possible, annotate the mpc.c file and see what I did to it
18:24:53MoosRotAtoR: the patch work like a charm here, just the skeep problem
18:25:09Mooslostlogic: you was the last to touch it :p
18:25:10Moos:)
18:25:14Paul_The_Nerdlostlogic: It was in a flac song. Playback dropped out, the disk started reading, playback resumed, dropped out, then came back on a different song. It skipped over one, to the one after.
18:25:15amiconnHrmph, build system seems to hang again
18:25:19RotAtoRMoos: ok, i had tried earlier versions of the patches and they seemed to work fairly well
18:25:22amiconnBagder? t0mas?
18:25:28t0mashanging?
18:25:38lostlogicPaul_The_Nerd: ahh, I assume the song is > 30m?
18:25:40t0masno...

18:26:22RotAtoRMoos: Nice!!
18:26:37t0masamiconn: give it some time :)
18:26:38amiconnSomehow the build times are going up quite a bit
18:26:49lostlogicPaul_The_Nerd: how big is a 5m flac?
18:27:01GargamaleToo damn big
18:27:06scott666_Gargamale: The solution was to kill Explorer in task manager and restart it
18:27:06amiconnThe log is looking a bit mangled: SRVPRN00 (WSUS),
18:27:08Mooslostlogic: for mpcs, when track 1s or 2 before finish, it hang, and need to manually skeep for next track, any thought?

18:28:18lostlogict0mas: have you developed a protocol for dropping servers who are more likely to hold up the process overall?
18:28:22Paul_The_Nerdlostlogic: ~26.1mb.
18:28:36Paul_The_Nerdlostlogic: It stopped somewhere in the middle, I assume it was the last track in the buffer.
18:28:37amiconnWow, 494 seconds for _one_ build...
18:28:37t0maslostlogic: not yet, we've done that manually the last 2 times
18:28:46lostlogicPaul_The_Nerd: hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, just near the size of the file buffer, can you compare its size to the size of the buffer in bytes?
18:29:02lostlogict0mas: ah, so you have done it, cool.
18:29:14amiconnThat almost looks like my cygwin compile times
18:29:22t0masyeah, but more like "hey... this is slow... wait 2 days and remove it if it's still slow"
18:29:28lostlogicmakes sense.
18:29:32GargamaleSo 26MB FLAC is teh devil?
18:29:33Paul_The_Nerdlostlogic: My codec buffer is listed a 30228860, the file 27,374,924 (according to windows, and on a different disk.)
18:29:46lostlogicPaul_The_Nerd: ok, so it's not what I thought, thanks.
18:30:14Paul_The_Nerdlostlogic: It cut out at about 50% through the song. My best guess it was the last song on the buffer, and it sounded like it decoded faster than the codec buffer could refill.
18:30:41lostlogicPaul_The_Nerd: hmmmmmm, tis possible, good point!

18:49:27Paul_The_Nerdlostlogic: It was at "track count: 2" and then the PCM buffer bottomed out, and it righted itself.
18:49:34Paul_The_Nerd100% sane
18:49:41lostlogicI'm scared.
18:49:52lostlogicthat shouldn't be possible.
18:50:01Paul_The_NerdI... I don't understand...
18:50:14crashdwhat state is playback in atm lostlogic, i wanna make a patched build with SID that'll be stable for a few days whilst im AFK
18:50:21RotAtoRpreglow: do have a musepack patch that applies cleanly to latest cvs?
18:50:23lostlogicI was going to remove that filebufused variable at one point, maybe I made it unimportant, so even though it was effed up it didn't cause other trouble?
18:50:37lostlogiccrashd: it's pretty sane... see the wiki page for what I know abotu
18:50:43Paul_The_Nerdcrashd: If you CVS update RIGHT NOW, you should get a pretty okay build, as long as you're not me and getting crazy negative Codec Buffers.
18:50:43klrspzi let mine "idle power-off" last night, but it looked like the screen had some articles still left on it, after 3 hours of letting it sit it had dropped 10% battery power, i put it in retail os, let it sit for another 3 hours and it didn't drop but maybe 1% battery power
18:51:03Mikachuklrspz: your what?
18:51:08Paul_The_Nerdklrspz: You said that exact thing hours ago.
18:51:22crashdwhich wiki page issit lostlogic :)
18:51:27lostlogicPaul_The_Nerd: it's not just you... I got that negative buffer once or twice when messing with crossfade, but couldn't reproduce reliably
18:51:28klrspzPaul_The_Nerd, i know, i had asked 8 min ago if anyone had seen it to see if anyone had the same problem
18:51:33lostlogiccrashd: SoftwareCodecPlayback
18:51:39crashdahh yeah
18:51:40crashdcheers
18:51:45klrspzMikachu, my ipod nano
18:51:47lostlogicit's my dump zone for stuff related to playback
18:52:00Paul_The_Nerdklrspz: But you're not specifying an issue. The retail OS suspends after a few minutes of not pressing anything. Did you do anything to keep it from doing this?
18:52:09 Quit hardeep ("BitchX: use it, it makes hair grow in funny places!")
18:52:45klrspzPaul_The_Nerd, no the point was that both OS's shut themselves down, RB didn't seem to actually shut down but rather disable any processing.. the screen still had very very light artifacts on it
18:52:50klrspzas if it still had power to it
18:53:50Paul_The_Nerdklrspz: Well, if you don't clear the screen before shutting down, those can be left. It used to show them on a proper shutdown too, but it was changed.

18:56:14pondlifeSilly question - should crossfade work on skip backwards?
18:56:31Mikachumy next wps tags don't show anything
18:58:06lostlogicpondlife: there is nothing in th ecode to say no, but often skips backwards are off buffer which disables it
18:59:02pondlifeOK
18:59:09GargamaleI think it'd rewind the song
18:59:22GargamaleAnd the buffer from the previous song would be gone by then
18:59:24GargamaleI think
18:59:37 Nick Gargamale is now known as Garga-Lunch (n=johnolso@cpe-24-160-202-103.ma.res.rr.com)
18:59:39pondlifeI thought it used to do that - that's all. Might be imagining more problems for lostlogic...!
18:59:54lostlogicGarga-Lunch: it's possible to trigger a successful backwards crossfade
19:00
19:00:21pondlifeI use crossfade as a kind of party mode, to keep that music going without any obvious breaks.
19:00:33klrspzPaul_The_Nerd, so what exactly are you saying? that's normal?
19:00:54Paul_The_Nerdklrspz: I'm saying that if you just cut off power to an LCD, they often do that. Have you ever played with a GBA or Nintendo DS?
19:00:55klrspzi mean in 3 hours my ipod dropped 10% battery as if i had it on playing, in RetailOS it acted like it was completely shut off
19:01:17pondlifeCould out-of-buffer crossfades be delayed until the required buffering has taken place? i.e. prefer continuity over responsiveness
19:01:18klrspznah, i mean i've seen lcd's have artifacts when isntantly cut off, but they usually fade once the power has drained
19:01:24klrspzthese never faded
19:01:55pondlifeImplementation to be post-3.0, of course!
19:01:58Paul_The_NerdBut it woke up fine after the 3 hours?
19:02:07klrspzPaul_The_Nerd, yeah it woke up, with 1% battery power left
19:02:13klrspz3.3 minutes apparently
19:02:18klrspzso i charged it back up to 50%
19:02:24*pondlife has to cycle off now.
19:02:37klrspz, then did the same thing with retail os, and after 3 hours i saw it go from 50 down to 49
19:02:40Paul_The_NerdSo what you're saying is that the 10% lost was the bottom 10%, and the tests weren't both done on a full battery?
19:02:53 Quit pondlife ("Byebye")
19:03:04klrspzi've done it a few times now, ranging all kinds of battery power, resulting in the same outcome
19:03:25klrspzthe reason i tested was the first time i had 100% batt power, and when i came home from work it was completely dead
19:04:03Paul_The_NerdWhat, 10% every time the iPod is shut off for 3 hours?
19:04:49klrspzor more
19:04:57klrspzthe percentage isn't really my concern
19:05:09klrspzit's the fact that it IS losing considerable power when it's supposed to be off
19:05:21klrspzwhere the retail os acts as expected.. you turn it off, your battery power stays the same
19:05:23Paul_The_NerdWell, is it JUST with idle, or is it with a proper shutdown too?
19:05:40klrspzboth i believe
19:05:46klrspzi'll double test that tonight
19:05:50Paul_The_NerdOkay, see A) You didn't specify that before
19:06:12Paul_The_NerdAnd B) It'd be nice to know if it's an "Idle doesn't shut down thing" or if it's a "For some reason yours doesn't shut down right from rockbox thing, while mine does"
19:06:15klrspzk, sorry
19:06:26Paul_The_NerdWhich type of iPod do you have?
19:06:32klrspznanopod, 1gig
19:06:41Paul_The_NerdAs I just tested, and mine shuts down fully with the idle poweroff.
19:07:05Paul_The_NerdClear screen, no artifacts or anything
19:07:13klrspzif you leave it off, do you wake back up to full battery?
19:07:24klrspzor where u left off at
19:07:50Paul_The_NerdWell, seeing as it was just shut down for a few seconds, the battery didn't have a chance to "drain" if it does.
19:08:11klrspzyeah, that's kind of the whole point
19:08:24klrspzi'm not saying it's not turning off, i'm just saying my battery is draining as if it WASN'T turned off
19:08:47Paul_The_NerdWhich means you're saying it's not turning off
19:08:55Paul_The_NerdBecause if it was turned off, then your battery wouldn't drain.
19:09:16Paul_The_NerdLet me ask, after your iPod idle-shutdowns, do you see the Apple logo when you hit Menu to turn it on?
19:09:20klrspzyes
19:09:23klrspzit reboots like normal
19:09:29klrspzwhich is what i find odd
19:09:36Paul_The_NerdWell
19:09:38Paul_The_NerdYou said it was at 1%
19:09:45Paul_The_NerdWhich means it could've actually shut down from the battery dying
19:10:01klrspztrue
19:10:23Paul_The_NerdYou also said there were artifacts on the screen, which notably does NOT occur with my idle shutdowns.
19:10:41 Nick _FutureCrash is now known as FutureCrash (i=julius@irc.finalfuture.de)
19:10:56klrspzi just let it idle shutdown like 5 min ago, i still have artifacts on it

19:33:21_FireFly_?
19:33:24preglowXavierGr: yes
19:33:31amiconnNow I am unsure whether it's a good idea to use -Os on archos
19:33:36preglowXavierGr: you complained that 0.1 was too little. if you hold the button, the value gets bigger
19:33:42preglowamiconn: why?
19:34:05amiconnBoth sh-elf-gcc 3.3.x and 3.4.x have a bug that causes out-of-range jumptables for switch() with -O2 and -Os
19:34:17XavierGrpreglow: yes indeed, but I can't think why the left/right lock behaviour is better.
19:34:18*preglow shoots gcc
19:34:30preglowXavierGr: dj use, like it's been said over and over
19:34:39amiconnSH1 sign-extends, so that a byte-sized forward jumptable can use 00..7F
19:34:56amiconngcc sometimes uses 80 - ouch!
19:35:11preglowXavierGr: why isn't the button repeat method good enough? that's what we use for faster adjustment everywhere else
19:35:14XavierGrpreglow: and why exactly this helps dj use? The dj can quite easily press only once left/right
19:35:29preglowXavierGr: it needs to be fast
19:35:38preglowXavierGr: sometimes you don't hold it there, you just flick it really fast
19:35:55amiconnWhile I can fix these goofs case-by-case by reordering case:s, it will probably hit us sooner or later...
19:36:04preglowamiconn: indeed

19:37:27preglowthe fix isn't the hard part, finding out how the source works is the hard part
19:37:54amiconnThe odd thing is that while gcc 3.4.6 builds smaller code than 3.3.6 with -Os, the particular switch() where I found the bug is exactly the same

20:07:30amiconnSomewhat against the goal of using -Os though...
20:07:48preglowyes
20:08:54Learpreglow: iirc, when the file buf wraps, at least that number of bytes will be returned when the codec requests more data.
20:09:55preglowright
20:09:56preglowbtw
20:09:58lostlogicno
20:10:10lostlogicfilebuf chunk size is just how much is read from disk at a time I think

20:10:11preglowError: dsp_input_size(0=dsp_output_size(0))=0<=0
20:10:16lostlogicth eguardbuf size is the guaranteed read
20:10:36lostlogicguardbuf is 32k which is how large of a read will always be satisfied in a single request
20:12:01lostlogicLear: that's very strange. bet if I find out what causes that it also stops some other things I'm seeing with filebuf used overflowing
20:13:26lostlogicpreglow: neat. lemme take a look.

20:57:41preglowgimme a sec
20:57:43amiconnkapheine: No, it's about the gcc -Os / -O2 bug on SH1
20:59:53kapheineahh
21:00
21:00:39preglownice macro
21:01:23amiconnpreglow: Open said file, gcc/config/sh/sh.h, and go to line 2591
21:01:27amiconnThere's a macro that decides the integer size for jumptables
21:01:39preglowyeah, that's the macro i was talking about
21:01:42preglowno wonder gcc is buggy
21:01:54amiconnNo, that's not the whole story
21:02:17amiconnThing is, this macro distinguishes 2 cases with 8bit offsets, signed and unsigned
21:02:21preglowwith code like this they're probably constantly dizzy
21:02:36amiconn...and it sets (BODY).offset_unsigned to 0 or 1 depending on that
21:03:12amiconnNow grep for "offset_unsigned" across the whole source tree
21:03:27amiconnIt's only found in sh.h and rtl.h
21:03:37amiconnThe latter defines the struct containing it
21:03:54amiconnAfaiu this means the flag is set, but never evaluated (!)
21:03:54preglowhahaa
21:03:58preglowexcellent
21:04:16amiconn...and since SH always sign-extends by default −− boom!
21:04:38preglowi bet it's caused by sh being an old backend
21:04:45preglowwhat about taking a trip over to their irc channel and asking them?
21:04:59amiconnThe proper fix would be to evaluate this flag and insert an extu.b instruction in the appropriate place
21:05:11amiconnThe quick fix would be to just disable the unsigned case
21:05:24amiconnI will put this theory to test soon
21:05:32preglowamiconn: you know, i'm starting to think we're probably better off with our own fork of gcc, heh
21:05:45goffapreglow: is that like sending scouts?
21:05:48amiconnIf this works, I will make a patch

21:14:03Paul_The_Nerdklrspz: It went down between 1 and 2%
21:14:18Paul_The_NerdNowhere near the ~5-7% your descriptions say it should've.
21:14:54amiconnMikachu: @PV@ ?
21:16:22Learwell, you typically build it yourself, unless you use packages from rockbox.org, so it wouldn't be _that_ bad, I guess...
21:16:31Mikachuamiconn: something gentoo specific
21:16:54Mikachuprobably something like 3.2.3-r3
21:17:16preglowamiconn: yes

22:11:33preglowthen arm supports that
22:12:05preglowbtw, i'm speaking bs, there's just one lshift, and that has max 31 in the const case, in the variable case, it takes everything

22:28:31Paul_The_NerdI have a question: Is setting the minimum clock say, 10mhz faster perhaps better than boosting up to 75 as often?
22:28:38preglowlowlight: hiya, you done any tests to see if mp3 now works as it should?
22:29:07peturright. optimizations for arm (ipod)...
22:29:17lowlightpreglow: no, but I don't see why it shouldn't now
22:29:25preglowlowlight: i just like to make sure
22:29:32linuxstbPaul_The_Nerd: "Better" in what way? It would mean more boosting for codecs with zero boost like FLAC.

22:29:54 Quit Rondom ("I'm leaving on a jetplane, don't know when I'll be back again...")
22:30:32Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb: Well rather, I was just curious if running it slightly higher and boosting less often is more or less efficient for codecs with high boost percentages. I wasn't really proposing it as an actual way to run it, I was just more or less curious.
22:30:51lostlogiclowlight: ty
22:31:15lowlightpreglow: yeah...I'll check to be sure
22:31:34lostlogiclowlight: it also handles it correctly.
22:32:47amiconnIs seeking impossible in shorten, or just not implemented in the codec?
22:33:02Kyomilowlogic and lostlight?
22:33:05preglowlowlight: _FLAWLESS_ gapless in those tracks now
22:33:16preglowso it most certainly seems to have bettered
22:33:40lowlightpreglow: good to hear
22:33:41lostlogicpreglow: was it the 8bytes, change, or toni's change that fixed gapless?
22:33:49preglowlostlogic: 8 bytes
22:33:55lostlogichmph, any problems with it so far?
22:34:18preglowwhen i was coding gapless mp3 support i always had trouble with libmad refusing to spit out the last couple of samples
22:34:27lostlogicI'm still considering that the most retarded thing ever.
22:34:28preglowturns out that was the bug lowlight discovered
22:35:04linuxstbamiconn: I believe it's possible if the file has a seektable, which most shorten files don't. IIRC, the seektable contains the state of the decoder at that point, not just file offsets.
22:35:08preglowif this is fixed, i need to remove a comment in mp3.c
22:35:21preglowlinuxstb: gahahahaha
22:35:31preglowlinuxstb: how musepack of it
22:35:35linuxstbAnd you thought musepack was bad?
22:35:53lowlightamiconn: shorten seek tables are at the end of the file which makes them difficult to utilize
22:35:56*amiconn wonders why people design such cumbersome formats
22:36:12Paul_The_NerdThey must've seemed logical at the time.
22:36:12preglowamiconn: stupidity and whisky, that's why
22:36:13Paul_The_NerdSomehow.
22:36:20Paul_The_NerdOr whisky
22:36:22lostlogicwow, toni's changes just make a remarkable difference in mp3's keeping up abilities.
22:36:22preglowi feel somewhat less diplomatic in this regard
22:36:26*Kyomi wonders why there just aren't like... 4
22:36:49preglowKyomi: 4 what...
22:36:59Kyomi1 for old game music/MODs, 1 for PC mp3, 1 for mac mp3, and some other one

22:37:05Kyomi4 audio format
22:37:06Kyomis
22:37:18Paul_The_NerdAnd what about the people who want something *better* than MP3?
22:37:19preglowwhat's the difference between pc and mac mp3s...
22:37:28linuxstbamiconn: I expect shorten was designed just for archiving/distributing CDs, not as a playback format.
22:37:38*amiconn gets impatient while waiting for sh-gcc 3.3.6 to compile
22:37:47preglowlinuxstb: wavpack used to be like that too

22:40:55preglowRotAtoR: i seriously doubt the seeking patch applies anymore
22:41:03preglowRotAtoR: so please just test this first
22:41:11preglowif this fixes the pop, i need to think of something clever
22:41:12RotAtoRi figured that with the recent changes
22:41:15lowlightpreglow: I've been messing around with Sandvall's patch to use FFT in Tremor
22:41:24preglowlowlight: what patch?
22:41:48Moospreglow: oh, broken since those last hours?
22:41:56preglowMoos: since of right now
22:42:04preglowMoos: i don't think there's enough iram for it now
22:42:10Moosok
22:42:41preglowlostlogic broke it with his commit anyway, so i need to make a new patch
22:42:42lowlightpreglow: the one mentioned here http://lists.xiph.org/pipermail/tremor/2004-March/000957.html
22:43:19markunlowlight: what are the results or your tests?
22:43:36preglowlowlight: afraid i don't have a coldfire fft, no

22:43:46preglowwhich isn't very precise, to boot
22:43:54Moospreglow: ok, when you have new clean patch please let us know
22:44:09lowlightmarkun: I have it working in the simulator
22:44:48preglowlowlight: why not on target?
22:45:00preglowlowlight: would be very interesting to see the performance difference
22:45:23preglowbtw, i think someone else also played around with this a while ago...
22:46:59lowlightpreglow: well, the patch is for the Tremor low mem branch which is not what rockbox uses
22:47:35preglowindeed not, but i don't think the differences were very many
22:49:12LinusNi'm really impressed by the iriver mp3 decoder performance
22:49:30preglowme too
22:49:46LinusNmeasured current draw:
22:50:04LinusNrockbox 128kbit/s: 125mA
22:50:14LinusNiriver 128kbit/s: 60mA
22:50:27goffadamn... quite the difference
22:50:33amiconnThis is on H300?
22:50:36LinusNyes
22:50:41lowlightpreglow: the differences were enough that I couldn't figure it out :)
22:50:42preglowLinusN: try with toni's patches
22:50:53amiconnI would like to see the same comparison on H1x0...
22:50:54LinusNmaybe i should
22:51:23peturstill, this can't be decoder performance alone
22:51:26amiconnI don't think it's a rockbox inefficiency, rather the mysterious current draw...
22:51:46peturwe're talking *double* power draw here

22:53:50LinusNiriver idle in browser: 112mA
22:53:55Bagderhehe
22:54:05Bagder1 - 1
22:54:08Bagder:-P
22:54:10Paul_The_NerdYeah, how does their draw go *down* when playback starts?
22:54:11Moos: )
22:54:17amiconnpetur: When thinking back to my trip to Torino, it's likely that the mystery is caused by the ISP1362
22:54:32peturLinusN: if you have time, do try my isp1362 init patch in the bootloader.. maybe it suspends that chip better?
22:54:51amiconnI used USB host mode there, and remember that USB host mode really drained the battery
22:54:53preglowLinusN: iriver uses more idle than playing mp3s????
22:55:25peturon the other hand, I claim the fact that I can't access the chip to the fact that it's suspended... :/
22:55:50ep0ch_does the H3x0 series have that disk spinning bug like the ihp-1x0?
22:56:09LinusNpreglow: yes, probably because it runs at a higher frequency in the browser
22:56:14preglowLinusN: nice
22:56:37preglowLinusN: but yeah, with tonis patches, libmad never boosts on h1x0
22:56:47preglowmight be worth seeing how much that lowers power consumption
22:56:53peturamiconn: then linus should *really* do the measurements with my init patch - maybe the unconfigured GPIO causes the usbotg chargepump to be enabled?

23:08:28Paul_The_NerdI probably will create one for gen discussion.

23:21:19Moosk
23:21:23preglowi don't have too many musepack files yet
23:21:33Paul_The_NerdHey, folks, is there an "all" manual build yet? And if not, which manual covers the most stuff? H120 maybe?
23:21:34Bagderperhaps we could make a Pop Cap?
23:21:37*Bagder grins
23:21:44Moospreglow: cause here it seems I have no pop
23:21:57Moospreglow: do you want fews?
23:22:03Paul_The_NerdI realized I've never read it yet, and I've got somewhere I may have to sit a while. It might be nice to know what's actually *in* it, so that when I suggest that people read it, I won't one day have them come back and say "I did. It didn't say."
23:22:08preglowMoos: not unless you remember they used to pop before
23:22:15preglowMoos: i've got some gapless files i know work, you see
23:22:16amiconnBagder: Haha, what are you sinking about

23:22:52Moospreglow: fortunatly I don't have find yet bad songs on my collection, if so I'll send it to you too
23:23:25amiconnWell 60mA at 3.3V isn't that much to produce significant heat
23:23:30preglowMoos: i think rotator had a few he knew was popping
23:23:44Moosgoodie

23:30:24Hotfusionman this x5l is smaller than I thought

23:31:05preglowRotAtoR: wootsness
23:31:06Bagderwow
23:31:08Hotfusionshould I charge it before use?
23:31:10LinusNidle: 90mA
23:31:16RotAtoRthe first album I tried just had pops in the actual file
23:32:02BagderHotfusion: you need the AC plugged in to be able to flash Rockbox ;-)
23:32:16preglowRotAtoR: but you got a couple of files you know used to pop when changing between them?
23:32:18LinusNconclusion: rockbox idles better than iriver :-)
23:32:23Bagderhehe
23:32:24amiconnLinusN: Well, much better matching values than on H300
23:32:35LinusNwe have a more efficient idle loop :-P
23:32:37preglowLinusN: they probably clock the cpu mad assed low
23:32:42RotAtoRpreglow: yes, and no more popping now
23:32:43Bagderwe knew that already, look at all the idlers in this channel!
23:32:43preglowfor mp3
23:32:47preglowRotAtoR: could i have them?
23:32:48LinusNpreglow: when decoding, yes
23:32:55preglowLinusN: yeah
23:33:10amiconnThe idle/playing values for rockbox could probably be lowered by using 34MHz as the normal frequency
23:33:14LinusNwe could probably do that as well
23:33:24preglowwe could also do it in a codec dependent way :P
23:33:29RotAtoRpreglow: sure, i'll upload them somewhere

23:34:06amiconnThe values match the reported playback time of 11..12 hour on H1x0 very well, given that iriver promises 16 hours
23:34:15Hotfusiondefinately liking this
23:34:33amiconnThe H300 values are badness
23:34:41LinusNvery much so
23:35:13Hotfusionnot gonna use it quite yet, let it charge then organize my music
23:36:17arf-arfpreglow: I get no popping with mpc either

23:39:05preglowwould be fun to see how much we save with that
23:39:17preglowdisregard me if i'm being annoying, heh
23:39:29*LinusN disregards annoying norwegians
23:39:32*amiconn suspect that some threads never sleep on swcodec

23:40:09lostlogicduring playback, the codec thread pretty much never sleeps.
23:40:19preglowplayback i know of
23:40:21zbzwho can help me ?
23:40:21lostlogicbut it shouldn't really ever sleep.
23:40:29preglowbut when testing the thread sleep on ipod, i did get sleep during idle

23:42:00zbzwhen i setup rockbox. i see [ERR] File is too large for firmware partition, aborting.
23:42:07ep0ch_now why would you want to do something like that...
23:42:07zbzwtf?! :((
23:42:27Haykuroi love rockbox cuz of the skinning, but i want to put ipod linux becuz i prefer video over skins
23:42:28zbzon iPod hard drive too much space
23:42:41lostlogicamiconn: which would only happen on mp3 on h1x0 or flac or wav on other targets... it's not exactly a giant power saver... and would hafta do something to indicate the reason for the sleep to prevent the CPU from boosting when it wakes up.
23:42:43zbzhelp me please
23:43:01Bagderwe need a big "ipl vs rockbox" comparison wiki page
23:43:03Paul_The_Nerdzbz: You've probably incorrectly prepared the bootloader.
23:43:15preglowHaykuro: ipodlinux can't decode compressed video, you know
23:43:22amiconnlostlogic: With an efficient codec, I seriously doubt that it would boost after wakeup
23:43:36preglowme too
23:43:39zbzi read install guide and do it
23:43:40preglowi think it's a good idea
23:43:41Paul_The_NerdHaykuro: Well, generally the idea of Rockbox isn't exactly skinning, but really good audio playback. Especially compared to iPL. But you can restore it just by ipodpatcher N -w bootpartition.bin, assuming you kept your original like you should've
23:44:02amiconnI don't say it should go to sleep for extended times, just a sleep(0) when it's done filling the pcm buffer
23:44:14preglow0 does what?
23:44:16amiconnsleep(0) would send the thread to sleep for the rest of the tick
23:44:21preglowahh
23:44:37preglowwe could probably sleep a bit more than that too
23:44:39Haykuro@Paul_The_Nerd: yea i kno that too, i love the way its gapless and all, but i really rather watch videos and use the original nano firmware for music i guess
23:44:46zbzplease help me
23:44:59lostlogicamiconn: it would boost after wakeup by nature of being below the watermark to triger the wakeup −− it would require special handling to know how it _got_ under the watermark
23:45:07ep0ch_videos on nano?
23:45:07amiconnlostlogic: How long is one pcm chunk again (in playtime)?
23:45:15Hotfusionvideo for rockbix is a long time away but it would be nice to have mroe than just avi for video formats
23:45:19Hotfusionrockbox*
23:45:23lostlogicamiconn: ~1/5s
23:45:32amiconnlostlogic: It shouldn't wait until it gets below the boost watermark
23:46:11amiconnIt should just sleep for a short time instead of busy-looping when pcm buffer is full
23:46:11zbzi do all from a guide... and other eople do it from a guide
23:46:18lostlogicamiconn: hmm... ok, I can do that.
23:46:22Haykuro@ep0ch_: yea, iPL does videos on nano, which is y i rather use that, although im going to miss rockbox dearly, the doom for it has sounds unlike iPL, and the skins and the way it plays music were all great. but iPL, in my eyes, wins because of videos on nano
23:46:39Garga-WorkBut the videos are uncompressed
23:46:39amiconnlostlogic: One empty pcm buffer block wouldn't make it boost immediately?
23:46:43Garga-WorkAnd large
23:46:47ep0ch_but you need a microscope to see the video?
23:46:53Bagderuncompressed video on nano...
23:46:59preglowHaykuro: all the videos need to be uncompressed, they'll be bloody _HUGE_
23:47:02Bagderthat better be short films ;-)
23:47:06amiconn_uncompressed_ ?
23:47:13preglowyea
23:47:19Garga-WorkYes
23:47:25Garga-Workit doesnt support real time decoding
23:47:30amiconnWow, uncompressed colour video on a flash based device

23:47:32lostlogicamiconn: no no, I was thinking of sleeping it for a long time.
23:48:01lostlogicamiconn: can definitely sleep it for up to a full second without triggering a post sleep boost.
23:48:03amiconnlostlogic: I think sleeping for some ticks should be enough. (1..10 ticks)
23:48:24preglowme too
23:48:31lostlogiccurrently it sleeps for 1, and unboosts if it hits the full buffer...
23:48:50lostlogicso increase to 10 if the CPU was not boosted when it hits?
23:48:55amiconnAh, so it already does sleep

23:51:48Haykurohmph.. okay

23:55:41KyomiHaykuro: Shhhh... you'll spoil my conspiracy ;P
23:55:44preglowlostlogic: so gas prices need to be low because the country is big?
23:55:45Hotfusionyeah it's $2.78 to 2.87 here in middle georgia
23:55:45HaykuroPaul_The_Nerd: here in florida its hit $3.00/gallon

23:55:49preglowdidn't think of that
23:55:50preglowheh
23:55:53Hotfusionand on which gas station you go to
23:56:08Paul_The_NerdI can pick a direction, drive 6 hours, and not leave the state.
