#rockbox log for 2006-06-12

00:00:05peturamiconn: try or can you already access it?
00:00:06*Jon23266 Farts
00:00:12*amiconn wonders how many of the latest commits are actual bugfixes
00:01:08 Quit Jon23266 ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
00:01:59*amiconn would also like to see a solution for the gcc 4.1 warning flood
00:02:30Mikachu-w-no-pointer-signed-something?
00:03:24amiconn-wno-pointer-sign is already in use, to suppress the gcc 4.0 "blah differ in signedness" warnings
00:03:54amiconngcc 4.1 spits a load more warnings, about breaking aliasing rules and stuff
00:04:13amiconnCheck the cvs build table.... lots of yellow
00:06:02*amiconn names it the '49 warnings problem'
00:06:12*Paul_The_Nerd doesn't want to hear of *anyone* having written something unless it's related to 3.0 =/
00:13:07Moosone 3.0 with all bugfixes needed seems to be utopic now, we can wait, wait... unfortunatly, or release like this imho
00:13:21Paul_The_NerdWe cannot release like this.
00:13:49Moosbetter to replace the 3.1 by 3.0 then ;-)
00:13:50Paul_The_NerdThat isn't an option. We can either cancel the freeze without a 3.0, or hold the freeze until it's good enough. But calling what we have "3.0" would be a WindowsME-style release.
00:14:02 Quit wooo (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
00:14:16 Quit [arcane] (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
00:14:18amiconnWell, we could release a 2.9 ... for archos
00:14:25Paul_The_NerdThe problem with releasing the freeze, is that it's like saying "It's okay that nobody helped out. If we don't get it done, we just cancel."
00:14:26Moosindeed
00:14:26midkaycanceling sounds best to me..
00:14:35EbErTyes, delay
00:14:43midkayPaul_The_Nerd, so waiting around for someone *to* help out is better?
00:14:53EbErTkeep everything on the same page. if it takes longer to work everything out, so be it
00:14:55Paul_The_NerdIf it's the only way to guarantee it gets done, then yes.
00:15:10midkayi guess that's the solution then.
00:15:18EbErTmaybe look for people also
00:15:23Paul_The_NerdWhy do you want the freeze to end, _exactly_?
00:16:02Moosjust see the diference about commit freqency during freeze and during normal activity
00:16:15Moosthe stats talk itself unfortunatly
00:16:17midkayPaul_The_Nerd, me? it's a number of smaller reasons, none of which are really important. I don't see much being done (though it's apparently being worked on).. we're missing release dates.. features are being held out..
00:16:24Paul_The_Nerdmidkay: The reason I said TagCache needs to be fixed or removed is that a "release" means everything is working as intended. This means that we're saying we _intend_ for tagcache to not be able to remove files without a workaround.
00:16:38midkayit seems unnecessary, holding back features to wait for bugfixes, when bugfixes that need doing are not being done.
00:17:00midkayPaul_The_Nerd, if it comes to that, removing it is best i suppose.
00:17:13amiconnImho it's quite the opposite... what good are bells and whistles if even the basic features are buggy?
00:17:22Paul_The_NerdAye, I'm personally okay with dropping TagCache and the H300, but that still leaves Voice and Playback issues, at least.
00:17:36midkayamiconn, but there's soooo much to do, bugginess won't be solved for .. pff.. probably over a month.
00:17:48midkaythere's just too much to do, that's the problem. :)
00:17:51Paul_The_Nerdmidkay: And if new stuff starts showing up, then new subtle bugs get introduced.
00:17:54midkaywe bit off too much for this release. :)
00:18:11midkayPaul_The_Nerd, agreed, but at least those are fixable more quickly than low-level playback/voice issues.
00:18:52amiconnmidkay: The problem is that the moment we lift the freeze, the actual bugfix work will go down further
00:18:53Paul_The_NerdNot if say, a patch gets in for .CUE support
00:19:02Moosmaybe we need more people with swcodec playback engine skills, lostlogiw wasn't awre those days
00:19:12Paul_The_NerdOr perhaps changes necessary to better support codecs like SID with multiple songs per file
00:19:40Paul_The_NerdThere's no guarantee that only simple bugs will get added once the feature freeze is off.
00:20:04midkaywhen we started the freeze for 3.0 back on april first, for a couple weeks there were plenty of fixes, and then they slowed down, because everything was shaping up, except for playback/voice, right? so if we canceled the freeze now, and pushed 3.0 back to november, yes, we'd be getting a lot of new features. but we'd have 4-5 months to solve playback problems, right? then when we went into freeze in november, playback/voice/power should all be
00:20:04midkayfixed, and we can do the normal 2-or-3 week stream of smaller bugfixes like we already had.
00:20:07 Quit petur ("here today, gone tomorrow")
00:20:20midkayi just hope you see my point with that long message. :)
00:20:23Moosif we compare this freeze with other ones, it semms we suffer of Linus missing :(
00:21:02Paul_The_Nerdmidkay: That makes the assumption that something else won't need to be resolved by that point.
00:21:02midkayit's not like leaving freeze means that bugfixes can't be done. they should.
00:21:10amiconnWe suffer from clueful people being notably absent :(
00:21:23Moosunfortunatly indeed :(
00:21:28midkayPaul_The_Nerd, i don't think anything as big as playback, voice, and battery life could be broken by then..
00:21:33amiconnlostlogic for playback, Linus for hardware, and TiMiD for multi-screen
00:21:34midkayespecially with 4-5 months to fix them.
00:21:54amiconnMulti-screen is still not 100%
00:22:19MoosTiMiD was dimotivated since his last tetris plugin attempt
00:22:23midkayamiconn, right, so the pace has slowed down.. if we had 5 months to fix all that, we could make it easily, and then just have the basic small bugs that we always do for the most part..
00:22:29midkayhaha.
00:22:42amiconnI doubt the 'easily' part
00:22:58Paul_The_NerdWhat is the harm in continuing the freeze?
00:23:03Paul_The_Nerd"No new features" is all.
00:23:16Paul_The_NerdWho does that hurt? Users? It's not *released* yet.
00:23:24amiconnThe point is, lostlogic started playback rework in preparation for 3.0
00:23:37midkayPaul_The_Nerd, everybody uses daily builds already, right? mostly..
00:23:52amiconnIf we wouldn't have planned 3.0, we would probably still have the non-restructured playback engine
00:23:56midkayamiconn, i don't mean easily like it won't be hard, but i mean easily like "we can do it within 4-5 months"..
00:24:22midkayright, so the rework is nearly done, and with 5-ish months i think it could be all fixed up.
00:24:47Paul_The_NerdAgain, what harm does the freeze cause?
00:24:51Moosamiconn: TiMiD had considered his plugin effort for nothing, I mean we he proposed his plugin, no one speaked with him about his plugin and that destroy his motivation to work on Rockbox
00:25:08amiconn?
00:25:11midkayPaul_The_Nerd, harm in continuing: no new features, right.. people asking about when/why is it gonna be released.. us delaying/missing dates..
00:25:47Paul_The_NerdThe only reason dates are missed is because they're set unrealistically
00:25:49amiconnmidkay: If we lift the freeze, there would still be no magical release... so people will continue to ask about it
00:25:53Paul_The_NerdYou can predict when you'll find the *cause* of the bug.
00:25:59Paul_The_Nerdcan't
00:26:00midkayPaul_The_Nerd, just general waiting. there's this "waiting" feeling for 3.0. nothing much is happening, most everything small has been ironed out, we're left with a few major bugs and we'll probably need a month to solve them.
00:26:10Paul_The_NerdSo?
00:26:25midkayamiconn, if we publicly announced that "we're gonna aim for november" now i think we'd certainly get less "When is 3.0 coming out" questions.
00:26:31midkayPaul_The_Nerd, *waiting*.
00:26:36Paul_The_NerdPeople can wait.
00:26:38Paul_The_NerdOr they can pitch in.
00:26:39midkaynot just that..
00:27:05midkaydunno. it's just my thoughts..
00:27:25midkayit feels like, if every feature was committed to CVS now, we could use that month to be fixing bugs, you know?
00:27:38midkayit's like wasted time.. waiting a month for a couple large commits.
00:27:43midkaynot literally wasted, but.. you know.
00:27:45Moosamiconn: he worked on one rework of tetris plugin with multi screen, multi player... but when he proposed his plugin, like noone was interested in, he didn't "apreciated" and he lost his motivation to rework in rockbox
00:27:53 Quit lancelott (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
00:28:06Paul_The_Nerdmidkay: People can test the patches without committing them to CVS
00:28:21amiconnMoos: Hmm... I must say I can't remember seeing that... and we already have 2 tetris clones
00:28:32midkayPaul_The_Nerd, users can't, and devs don't want to. only when they're actually *there* will they really bother to use them, i think..
00:28:48amiconnI thought multi-screen rework of the core is more important than plugins
00:28:52MikachuMoos: maybe he shouldn't have been so timid about pushing his plugin :)
00:28:58Paul_The_Nerdmidkay: Any patch that people are actually interested in gets tested.
00:29:03Moosamiconn: that's the reason for, but he used this work for refamiliarise with Rockbox, and he considered his work in vain
00:29:04Paul_The_NerdMeanwhile, look how buggy the H300 experimental build is.
00:29:05midkayPaul_The_Nerd, hardly by the masses..
00:29:14Paul_The_NerdIt has a LOT of reported problems
00:29:17MoosMikachu: :D
00:29:19midkaywhat about the smaller ones that are to-be committed?
00:29:25Paul_The_NerdSuch as?
00:29:39midkaymaybe only a couple people have tried, but if the feature is sitting there in CVS, people are *going* to take a few seconds to see how it works.
00:29:42amiconnmidkay: Problem is, devs like working on new features much more than working on bugfixes... I know that, I won't make an exception for myself
00:29:56amiconnThe freeze is a way to push devs towards fixing bugs
00:30:00midkayamiconn, i do as well..
00:30:03Paul_The_NerdThe only benefit of releasing the freeze is "Let the users play with new stuff"
00:30:18Paul_The_NerdAnd "more bugs to fix next time around"
00:30:34midkayamiconn, but some of us simply can't, and the ones who can't have already pretty much fixed everything they can. all that's left is the large-scale complicated playback/voice system and low-level power consumption stuff.
00:30:34Moosamiconn: I tried to motive him to fix his multi screen code but...
00:30:38Paul_The_NerdAnd, as I said, releasing the freeze means there's a LOT less pressure from a freeze next time
00:30:39midkayi simply can *not* do anything about those.
00:30:45Mikachui think it would be nice to get music playback working solid first, that is the main point of rockbox after all
00:30:55Paul_The_NerdIf we release it this time because people don't help out, next time some people may say "Hey, there's no harm in not helping out, as they can just cancel if they don't get done."
00:30:55amiconnThe bad thing about *this* freeze is that people with a clue about the buggy parts don't seem to have enough time to work on fixing them
00:31:08Moosbad luck imho
00:31:09Paul_The_NerdYou either stand by your guns, whatever the cost, or you lose any semblance of authority.
00:31:18midkayamiconn, right, so instead of having them fixed, we need to wait a month for the couple people with a clue to figure them out..
00:31:19***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
00:31:45Mikachuthis is a crazy idea but what about a cvs branch for features?
00:31:45amiconnmidkay: There are actually 2 power consumption issues, one is the H300 power drain from the ISP1362, which I am working on right now
00:31:55midkayamiconn, that's great to hear.
00:32:01Mikachuor possibly make the stable version a branch
00:32:04amiconnBattery runtime on H1x0 is really decent, it's longer than retailos promises
00:32:29Paul_The_NerdIf you cancel a freeze, all future freezes lose the level of pressure to fix bugs because casual devs know they can keep working on their side project, and even if the bugs don't get fixed, they can get it in when it's cancelled anyway.
00:32:32midkayif we had more people around this'd be cool, sure.. wait it out, fix it all up.. but since mostly everybody who can really help with this stuff is gone, it's like waiting a long time for this stuff to be fixed.
00:32:37amiconnThe other power issue only affects ipods, and it's a general codec optimisation problem... but ipods aren't targeted for 3.0
00:33:01Paul_The_Nerdmidkay: People can learn the code. Lostlogic had *no* experience with sound playback before he started reworking it.
00:33:02EbErTwait, where have they gone?
00:33:06midkayPaul_The_Nerd, erm.. most of the minor stuff is fixed. so the "casual devs" simply can't help any more.
00:33:22Paul_The_NerdNot "can't" but "won't"
00:33:27midkayso they may be even INTERESTED in bug fixes, but can't do anything about the remaining stuff.
00:33:39midkayPaul_The_Nerd, sure, anyone can learn anything.. but that's a load of crap. :)
00:33:44Paul_The_NerdNo, it's not.
00:33:55MikachuPaul_The_Nerd: is it the three 'immediate due for 3.0' bugs that are the holdups?
00:34:15midkaytalking about something this large scale, in such a small amount of time, for such a couple small bugs is..
00:34:28Paul_The_NerdSmall amount of time?
00:34:32Mikachu2687 is sort of really important, since it has to do with playback
00:34:42midkaypeople also probably figure that "if i begin learning the playback code now" they won't nearly have figured it out by the time it's fixed + the freeze is over, so why bother..
00:34:56midkaysmall amount of time meaning "it will be fixed before i can help".
00:35:21amiconnmidkay: E.g. for being able to help out with playback issues later?
00:35:41amiconnThe playback code is both a rather complex and a rather important part of rockbox
00:35:47Mikachulostlogic seems to have some idea for solving the problem inelegantly for 3.0 according to the tracker, but only he knows what that might be...
00:35:50midkayi don't think that we'll have anything this major after the rework is done.. what is there left to do if it's up and running? if the engine works well, all that's left is the stuff that interfaces with it..
00:36:09amiconnHaha...
00:36:31midkaywhat's gonna happen that we're gonna have huge bugs all over again? another rework? i hope not.. :)
00:36:37amiconnI expect numerous tasks even more complex than the engine rework itself after 3.0
00:36:49midkayamiconn, so those are unrelated to the engine rework.
00:37:13amiconnNo they aren't, as these tasks are playback related
00:37:15midkaye.g. learning the engine will be pointless if the engine gets fixed, even if we do have large bugs, they won't be related to the engine directly, since the engine is fixed.
00:37:18amiconnTo name a few
00:37:33Mikachumidkay: knowing the engine can never be pointless imo
00:37:33amiconn- support for non streamning codecs (mod, midi etc)
00:37:47midkayMikachu, no, certainly not. but it is a lot of work. :)
00:38:09amiconn- better modularisation (e.g. as few format-dependent cases in the core)
00:38:24amiconn- the great engine unification
00:39:11Paul_The_Nerdmidkay: What do we do if we lose everyone who knows the engine to other stuff?
00:39:16amiconnRemember, we want wav in the core for archos in 3.1 ...
00:39:18Paul_The_NerdDo we say "No more playback fixes"?
00:39:27Paul_The_NerdOr do we wait for someone to learn it.
00:39:38midkayPaul_The_Nerd, then i would personally begin learning it.
00:39:44Paul_The_NerdThen begin learning it.
00:39:47midkayas well as, i hope, a few others.
00:39:52midkayPaul_The_Nerd, i'd love to, and i'm considering it..
00:39:54Paul_The_NerdWhy wait until it's too late?
00:40:13midkayprobably in a few weeks i might give it a try..
00:41:11midkayPaul_The_Nerd, hm, just going by your logic - is there a reason *you* aren't learning it?
00:41:27MikachuPaul_The_Nerd is only here for moral support :)
00:41:53midkaysure, that.. but why can't he help with this also, if he thinks everyone should learn it and help out? :)
00:41:56crashdmaybe you should learn to code Paul_The_Nerd ;)
00:42:00Paul_The_NerdI can code.
00:42:04Paul_The_NerdAnd I'm working on learning it
00:42:12crashdwell, it does beg the question... :>
00:42:20Paul_The_NerdAs midkay noted, it is not simple.
00:42:30crashdim only playing the devils advocate anyway
00:42:36Paul_The_NerdBut I'm working on it.
00:42:48midkayPaul_The_Nerd, that's good to hear. :)
00:43:26Paul_The_NerdI have about 6 billion things on my plate right now, as I'm taking class over the summer, and I'm moving at the moment, but I am working on it.
00:44:04Moosnight or whatever all
00:44:08 Quit Moos ("CGI:IRC")
00:44:08midkayPaul_The_Nerd, i'm not nearly that busy, but yeah, i don't feel like i have the time right now to get far into it. but in a few weeks. :)
00:44:40Paul_The_NerdWell, I intend to finish all of my C++ classes assignments later tonight
00:44:58Paul_The_NerdWhich means I have two months of 2 hour labs twice a week where I have nothing to do but try to learn the playback engine.
00:45:06midkayi think the playback code is the next thing i need to tackle, really... i know the basics, that's the next step in learning all aspects of Rockbox. :)
00:45:19midkayah, nice. :)

00:46:27Paul_The_NerdSee, I don't really even know my way around Rockbox at all yet.
00:46:38midkaydamn :)
00:47:22Paul_The_NerdI had planned to learn it, then I got sidetracked with the whole "Y'know, there's a lot of people asking for help in these forums... And there's a lot of people reporting bugs, and not being asked to develop their bug reports to a readable level"
00:47:44midkayright.
00:48:10midkayk, i think i need to commit some new brickmania bitmaps today. hmm. :)
00:48:15*Paul_The_Nerd sighs.
00:48:23midkayat?
00:48:28Paul_The_NerdI dunno
00:48:43midkayme too, but apparently there could be some copyright problems with the current ones even..
00:48:44Paul_The_NerdIt's my opinion that no commits should happen that aren't strictly bug-fixes for release targets, or Manual changes.
00:49:00Paul_The_NerdWell, copyright issues are a bug, I suppose
00:49:06midkayclose enough, sure..
00:50:01midkayif we're going to be stuck in freeze for another month, waste as little time as possible, i think.
00:51:45Paul_The_NerdWell, it's still possible to cancel the freeze, but my opinion is that we should announce that the freeze is on, officially Indefinitely, until playback and voice work reliably. Then, if TagCache is fully functional and the H300 works by then, include them, otherwise drop them from the release. People can download a daily of the same day and it'll have TagCache anyway, and H300 can just be put in the next build.
00:52:16midkayPaul_The_Nerd, right. i don't really mind extending it in fact..
00:52:39Paul_The_NerdWe do need to make a clear announcement sometime soon though, either way, I agree.
00:52:42midkaybut i just mean that if we're going to be in it for a month (or less, or more) that at least the little stuff that can't induce bugs in any way can be worked on..
00:53:09midkayyes, that's what i'd really like in the end - just let people know what we're doing so they don't have to ask.
00:53:58midkayPaul_The_Nerd, and please, no hard feelings at all, i'm glad it was discussed. :)
00:54:23Paul_The_NerdOh, it takes quite a bit for me to hold hard feelings at all.
00:54:30*amiconn will perhaps also fix the 'headache bug' in H1x0 doom if he finds the time
00:54:32midkaygood to know. :)
00:54:44amiconnAka gamma correction for the grayscale lib
00:55:05midkaynice. :)
00:55:12amiconnBut important things first (like that darn isp1362)
00:55:38midkayamiconn, btw, did.. er.. i'd like to ask if you can check out the grayscale Xobox i was working on. for archos. the lib confuses me like crazy. :)
00:55:43midkayhad a couple bugs.

01:18:42XavierGrbad days for rockbox. First the feature freeze and now summer. CVS activity drops a lot during summer. :(
01:20:04XavierGrI promise to work more on Rockbox next days. My music school job is over (summer vacations) so I think I can help a bit, though my ignorance will not allow me to bug fix crucial bugs but at least I can try on minor ones...
01:21:49midkayas me, i'll be here all summer.. mostly just introducing bugs, though. ;)
01:21:55midkayah, i feel quite confident about these new bitmaps. :)
01:24:00EbErTwhat's the best way to convert jpeg's to bitmaps?
01:24:15EbErTi'm trying to replace some backdrops with ones i am making
01:24:41midkayanything? :) paint even works..
01:24:57Paul_The_NerdIf you're making backdrops...
01:25:02Paul_The_NerdWhy are they initially jpeg?
01:25:18midkaypictures? from the internet?

01:27:49Paul_The_NerdAh
01:27:56finikguys, sound stops on ipod if I use the wheel too much browsing menus etc, is it a known issue?
01:28:08Paul_The_NerdI guess "with ones I'm making" inspires the thought of creating something from scratch. Just the way my head works I guess.
01:28:15Paul_The_Nerdfinik: Very known, yes.
01:28:24Paul_The_NerdAs long as you're just talking about brief skips in the music
01:28:34midkayPaul_The_Nerd, also occurred to me, yeah. after writing that message.. i guess he means "making" as in "converting to be used with rockbox".
01:28:42midkaye.g. *making* bitmaps from jpg..
01:28:50Paul_The_NerdYeah
01:31:08*midkay is excited about these bitmaps
01:31:29finikPaul_The_Nerd: yes brief skips, can somebody explain me why does it happen? is the wheel movement arrives as some kind of interrupt? (I am not familiar yet with current SW arch)
01:31:38midkaygot quite a similar look as the CVS ones, but.. dunno.. i like it better. less harsh/fake.
01:31:50Paul_The_Nerdfinik: I believe that's exactly it, that the wheel generates interrupts right now.
01:32:07Paul_The_Nerdmidkay: Is the lighting consistent?
01:32:16midkayPaul_The_Nerd, meaning what?
01:32:47Paul_The_NerdOne of brick bitmaps, can't remember which, had the lighting on it in a curve, as if every brick bulged outward for some reason.

01:33:23midkayweird, um, it's the same on all if them if that's what you're asking.. none of it really bulges.
01:33:26midkayIMO.
01:33:52Paul_The_NerdI think it was the original that looked like that.
01:33:54Paul_The_NerdNot really sure
01:34:12*Paul_The_Nerd has plenty of portable game solutions already.

01:36:30Paul_The_Nerd100% of votes are for the first one. I think that settles it.
01:36:31Paul_The_Nerd:-P
01:38:01midkayhaha.
01:39:55Mikachufinik: that it is an interrupt doesn't matter so much, i think the actual button driver code is pretty fast. the problem is the menu code redraws itself for every event it receives (which is every 4 interrupts if you scroll slowly) without compressing the events
01:40:42Mikachufinik: i think it might be somewhat mitigated if you select the paged scrolling option
01:42:31Paul_The_NerdMikachu: You can trigger the behaviour in the debug audio thread screen. It's not related to the menu display.
01:42:40Paul_The_NerdTry scrolling quickly there, and watch the PCM buffer drop!
01:42:42Paul_The_Nerd:)
01:43:15finikmikachu: I don't think it has anything to do with scrolling, you can scratch the volume wheel back and forth during wps and still have your audio cut after a few seconds

01:49:26Mikachulike the quick screen
01:49:39dunnsoryy, hardeep, so i need to save the playlist catalog anew ?
01:49:43Paul_The_NerdMikachu: The View Audio Thread *doesn't* do anything when you scroll
01:49:55Paul_The_NerdIt just shows how full the two buffers are.
01:49:58hardeepdunn: maybe i'm misunderstanding
01:50:04hardeepdunn: what are you trying to do?
01:50:30dunnremove files from the playlist catalog
01:50:37MikachuPaul_The_Nerd: well, it definitely redraws all the numbers on every scroll event here
01:50:42hardeepdunn: what do you mean by remove files?
01:50:55dunnremove songs/tracks
01:51:19Mikachuif you use the 'view by id3' thinger you have to remove some files in .rockbox
01:51:21hardeepdunn: from the playlist viewer you mean...

02:06:15EbErTwas there an answer to my backdrop question?
02:06:39EbErTyes, some from the internet, but i'd like to make one from a logo of an opensource game i use
02:06:58Mikachuuse any image program
02:07:26Mikachuif you are on linux you can probably just do convert image.jpg -resize WIDTHxHEIGHT! backdrop.bmp
02:07:35Mikachuwhere width and height are your target's lcd size
02:09:08EbErTdoes it have to be a certain size bitmap to work?
02:09:25Mikachuyes, if you want to use it as a backdrop in rockbox
02:09:31Mikachuit also has to be a 24bit bmp
02:09:39EbErTi mean size as in ..
02:09:43EbErTyes, 24bit
02:09:44EbErTok
02:09:55Mikachuas a consequence, they will always be the same size in bytes too
02:10:11Paul_The_NerdMikachu: Yes, redrawing is definitely not as fast as would be nice
02:10:28EbErTthere's probably a converter for it in fireworks i guess

02:21:29midkayyou haven't been in gw for like. a week.
02:21:33sharpeyeah.
02:21:42Paul_The_NerdMikachu: Yeah, the WPS defines its own backdrop, but if your WPS doesn't *have* a %X tag, it uses the menu backdrop.
02:21:44EbErTmidkay: i haven't gotten into it too much yet, dunno how to define them
02:22:16midkayEbErT, the wps-backdrop is defined in the .wps file ( %X|whatever.bmp| i believe).
02:22:56EbErTso if you take out the %X, you can replace the menu backdrop with the one you want?
02:23:07EbErTthat would seem easier than defining it to change
02:23:13midkaywhat?
02:23:19sharpethat's the wps background...
02:23:32midkaythe %X tag defines a background for the WPS.
02:23:46midkayif it's not in your WPS file, i believe that rockbox uses the fg/bg colors instead.
02:23:55EbErToh, ok
02:23:58EbErTjust a color
02:24:06EbErTyes, that makes sense
02:24:34midkay.. in the WPS, that is.
02:24:38Paul_The_NerdEbErT: To set the Menu backdrop, you just click and hold Select on a .bmp of the appropriate size and choose "Set as Backdrop"
02:24:54Paul_The_NerdThey only save across reboots if they're in the /.rockbox/backdrops folder though
02:25:24EbErTwhere in the menu can i find the .bmp's?
02:25:29sharpei am reusing my palm pilot as an lcd display...
02:26:19Paul_The_NerdI didn't say anything about a menu...
02:26:41Paul_The_NerdI mean, I said to set the backdrop FOR the menu
02:26:53EbErTyaya, i'm not communicating clearly
02:27:02Paul_The_NerdBut I didn't say to do anything in the menu structure... the backdrops are files on the disk, so you find them by browsing the filetree..
02:27:10EbErThow do i access the .bmp's
02:27:15EbErTwhere do i put them
02:27:19EbErTin backdrops?
02:27:51Paul_The_NerdI told you everything you need to do.
02:28:03EbErToh, just where you put it

09:50:46sharpehow many of the *average* *for-the-looks* rockbox ipod users do you think would be interested in having their bootloader customized in a settings file, as an alternative to the customized bootloaders that one person was offering?

09:53:12crwljdgordon, you mean green background? looks like it comes from o+w
09:53:29JdGordonye, green background
09:53:29sharpeeh, suppose... foreground/background colors, watermark (such as their name)... those such things.
09:54:00sharpemaybe a certain boot order with which keys boot what...
09:54:15LinusNsharpe: well, i'm not the person to speak for that crowd...
09:54:23sharpeneither am i...
09:55:05LinusNbut i believe it shouldn't steal *that* much time, since the disk is already spinning when the rockbox loader is run, isn't it?

09:55:23sharpeyeah, true.

10:23:27peturwhat would be the speed difference of binary file versus parsed text file?
10:23:37B4gdernone
10:23:44B4gderit would just make it awkward
10:24:00sharpeno discernable difference, yay!
10:24:07*B4gder is a firm believer in text based config files
10:24:13*petur too
10:24:29*sharpe agrees for the sake of the argument.
10:24:39peturbut a two-file system for speedup is nice too
10:24:47linuxstbA "Bootloader config" plugin to edit values in the "boot.inI" (or whatever you call it) could also be useful.
10:24:58B4gderah, indeed
10:25:03sharpeyay!
10:25:29sharpei believe it will be boot.ini...
10:26:26peturyou could dump the memory of config in a binary file with version nr and crc of course, and fall back to the text based one on version or crc failure
10:26:48peturand always write both when saving
10:26:59B4gderI don't think you'd gain anything noticable with that
10:27:07linuxstbI agree - just keep it simple...
10:27:19peturwell if parsing is fast enough then it's ok for me
10:27:19JdGordonare u only making the ipod bootloader customizable? or the start screen on all targets?
10:27:48sharperight now, only the ipod, but probably expand it to all the other targets, i don't see why not...
10:27:57linuxstbIf sharpe puts the code in a separate .c file in bootloader/, then it could be shared by both bootloaders.
10:28:02LinusNbecause the other targets will be a lot slower?
10:28:19linuxstbBut doesn't the disk have to spin to load rockbox.XXXX ?
10:28:39sharpei think it may be spinning already :\
10:28:44sharpeas it sounds like it.

10:35:17natemicapparently so
10:35:22JdGordonzzzzz....
10:35:27sharpenope, it's sleep typing.
10:35:27natemicis there another way to hard reset an ipod
10:35:40sharpewait until the battery dies :D
10:35:40natemici switch from the rockbox to ipod interface all the time
10:35:54natemicexcept now it wont let me hard reset and boot under the rockbox interface
10:35:54sharpeother than holding select and menu, you mean?
10:36:08natemicyes, other than that, because that doesnt work for some reason
10:36:41sharpebut rockbox works fine?
10:37:20natemicno, the ipod interface works fine
10:37:22linuxstbnatemic: So holding PLAY for a few seconds doesn't shut down Rockbox?
10:37:26natemicand i usually can switch
10:37:38natemicim stuck in ipod
10:37:39sharpewait, i've got it; how about a setting in the settings file that determines if there should be a message printed? :D
10:37:51sharpeyou're stuck in the apple firmware?
10:37:54natemicif i hold play it shuts down soft
10:37:59natemicyes, stuck with the apple firmware
10:38:03linuxstbnatemic: So what happens if you hold MENU+SELECT ?
10:38:05JdGordonna, just display a message if the file exists but cant be read correctly
10:38:09natemicnothing
10:38:13sharpeis the hard disk spinning?
10:38:13JdGordonno message if it doesnt exsits
10:38:43natemicwow, amazing, it just hard reset while i held play and the menu button, not select nad the menu button
10:38:54LinusNJdGordon: what's wrong with a message? i mean, it displays several lines of text anyway

10:39:41petura fancy graphic bootloader :D
10:39:53sharpebecause everyone loves graphics
10:40:25linuxstbYou can't use any of the functions (such as the bmp reader) from apps/ in the bootloader.
10:40:54*JdGordon doesnt see the point of customizable bootloader... but opening screen i do
10:41:17sharpeJdGordon: it's something to keep me occupied
10:41:21JdGordonha
10:41:40JdGordonarnt there something like 90 open bugs that need fixing.. :p
10:41:55sharpe:)
10:42:37JdGordonapart from the obvious... is there any logical reason why the playlist doesnt like you adding non-exsistant files to the playlist?
10:43:59B4gder"the playlist" doesn't add files
10:44:03B4gderit contains files
10:44:31JdGordonright, but when u add files which dont exists they come up as <err> in the playlist.
10:45:03B4gderthat's because of the add function
10:45:11B4gdernot because of the playlist (concept)
10:47:50LinusNnow why would you add non-existant files to the playlist?
10:47:50linuxstbJdGordon: Are you saying you want to be able to add non-existent files?
10:48:06JdGordonwhich add function? add_track_to_playlist? the file isnt checked there..
10:48:11JdGordonyup.. for .cue support
10:48:22*B4gder shrugs
10:48:28B4gderif you want that
10:48:35B4gderyou need to do a major surgery
10:48:40LinusNi don't think adding bogus files to the playlist is the correct solution
10:48:56B4gdernot only does it seem wrong, it'll take some heavy mods
10:49:05petur[10:41] <JdGordon> arnt there something like 90 open bugs that need fixing.. tongue
10:49:09JdGordonmy idea is to add each track as a fake file and have the playback codedc load the real file at the position..
10:49:29LinusNJdGordon: how do you handle shuffle in that case?
10:49:31B4gderhow would you know the file is a "fake" cue one?
10:49:46JdGordonfilename like blaa.mp3.1.cued
10:49:52JdGordonfrom blaa.cue
10:50:02LinusNhmmm
10:50:15LinusNmaybe it isn't such a bad idea after all
10:50:37JdGordonthe part that beond me is the actual loading the correct position
10:50:49B4gderand what if the cue file name already uses (close to) 256 bytes? ;-)
10:51:05sharpehmm... do we have any function to convert from a hex string to an integer?
10:51:06JdGordonB4gder: yup, thats the big problem i keep runnig into
10:51:52LinusNi think you could add some metadata to the playlist command file
10:51:55JdGordoni thought about having a cuecache file which hashes the cue file and instead of adding blaa.mp3.1.cued it adds the hash.1.cued and then the codec gets all the info from the file...
10:52:04B4gdersharpe: sscanf()
10:52:11sharpeah, thank you.
10:52:36JdGordonthe problem with that is the user doesnt know the name of the track in the playlist
10:52:52JdGordonenlarge the buffer to MAX_PATH*2 :p

10:53:34linuxstbIMO, the playlist concept needs extending to point to sub-tracks within a file. So a playlist entry would consist of the filename and the subtrack number (or possibly the start/end times within the file).
10:53:46LWihey everybody. is there a documentation on the plugin api? i seem to be to dumb to find one

10:57:15tucozI noticed that a fix for the play-select (in french) was committed today. Is there still a discussion on whether we should call joy-press select/joystick/navi?
10:58:15linuxstbLWi: I think you need to use the audio_* functions - look at apps/plugins/lib/playback_control.[ch] - that's the playback control menu used by some plugins.
10:58:53tucozhmm, maybe commit wasn't a fix for that.

11:37:16Amienanyone got a sec .. i got a few questions
11:37:30LinusNshoot
11:37:41Amiendoes rockbox make a dualboot .. or replaces the firmware?
11:38:16sharpedepends on your player... :D
11:38:20Amien5g
11:38:28sharpeyou can triple boot with it.
11:38:47Amienhow can i reboot? just turn it on/off?
11:39:08sharpefor rebooting, holding select and menu...
11:39:47linuxstbIn Rockbox, it's best to turn off and then back on. The Apple firmware doesn't give you that option - you have to do a hard reset.
11:40:38Amienis it possible to remove rockbox and remove the dualboot
11:41:00linuxstbOf course. The installation page contains uninstallation instructions as well (at least the Windows version of the instructions does...)
11:41:01sharpeyou mean, revert to the original firmware ?
11:41:10Amiennice :)
11:41:18Amienyes . only the original firmware
11:41:20sharpeyep.
11:41:30sharpelike linuxstb said :D
11:41:34Amienand i can drag/drop just files into the ipod right?
11:41:37sharpesi
11:41:39linuxstbBut the original firmware never properly shuts down, so once you start it, you are always there.
11:41:48Amienso bought anapod for nothing :)
11:41:51linuxstbSo you don't really lose anything by leaving Rockbox installed.
11:42:40Amienfinal question : i can bookmark mp3's with rockbox right? .. but can i put multibookmarks in it?
11:42:59linuxstbI think so, but I don't use the bookmarking feature.
11:43:22Amieni listing to alot of livesets of DJ's .. and than bookmarking is really a must
11:43:30Amiencause an mp3 is 1-2 hours
11:43:45LinusNyes, you can have multiple bookmarks
11:44:06Amiengreat . gonna install it .. tnx for the answers
11:44:23sharpehmm... lets say, i use a function that just so happens to be in /apps/misc.c/.h for the bootloader... would anyone suggest, copying the code, or just including the file?
11:44:34sharpeer, the custom oen.
11:44:35sharpeone.
11:44:50linuxstbAmien: You can split your long mp3s and still get gapless playback in Rockbox - no need to keep them as one file.
11:45:27Amieneven better :)
11:49:00LinusNsharpe: i don't know what would be the cleanest solution, copying the file doesn't seem right, though
11:50:02linuxstbOne option would be to move it to firmware/. What function is it?
11:50:19sharpeactually, it's...
11:50:41sharpetwo. setings_parseline, read_line.
11:50:54sharpethey're bothing in apps/misc.c/.h though
11:50:57sharpeboth...
11:54:48linuxstbI think I would just copy them...
11:58:05amiconnLoading a settings file in the bootloader?????
11:58:13sharpe;)

12:31:33***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
12:32:17linuxstbAmien: What happens after the bootloader displays "-1"? It sounds like your installation has gone wrong.
12:35:31Amienforgot the rockbox.ipod file
12:35:37Amienwell .. rockbox is working now ..
12:35:54Amienbut the bootloader failed to load the original firmware when i got the -1 error
12:38:59linuxstbIn which case your installation went wrong. What did the bootloader display when it failed to load the original firmware?
12:39:31Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb: Many people have the bootloader not falling back to retail when -1, apparently.
12:39:52linuxstbPaul_The_Nerd: Can they load the original firmware by pressing MENU?
12:40:42Paul_The_NerdYup
12:40:53Paul_The_NerdAt least, any of the ones I've talked with have.
12:41:56Paul_The_NerdAmien: Can you load the Retail firmware?
12:41:58linuxstbDoes the bootloader display "Loading original firmware" ?
12:42:14Paul_The_NerdAmien: By rebooting and holding Menu?
12:42:36Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb: My understanding was that the Error: -1 was the last message but I'm not 100% certain.
12:42:54Amienno i cant
12:43:28Paul_The_NerdWhat happens?
12:43:29linuxstbPaul_The_Nerd: That's very odd then. The next thing the bootloader does after displaying "Rockbox error: -1" is to display "Loading original firmware..."
12:43:52Amieni have that too . .but than i keeping rebooting
12:44:02Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb: I could be wrong. Very often it's someone who has the problem, I get them to Rockbox working, and they vanish, so I've never had much chance to ask questions.
12:44:23Paul_The_NerdAmien: "Keep Rebooting"?
12:44:32Amienyes ..
12:44:50Paul_The_NerdThat was a question. As in "what do you mean by 'keep rebooting'?"
12:45:14Paul_The_NerdYou hold MENU, it says "Loading Original Firmware" and then?
12:45:14Amienwell .. i get the Loading original firmware..." message .. when blankscreen .. and than the same text again
12:45:21Paul_The_NerdAh
12:45:35Paul_The_NerdWell that's definitely a broken install then.

12:47:14Paul_The_NerdI'm curious what step needs to be done wrong to cause this though
12:47:26Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb_: So, in this case, if you missed it, it's definitely a bad install.
12:47:40 Quit linuxstb (Nick collision from services.)
12:47:58Amienbut its not possible to uninstall it all?

12:48:41Amienyes
12:48:54Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb: It's possible it is. I rarely have the chance to ask more than a couple questions, as most are happy to leave once Rockbox works. But I've not had *anyone* report a permanent inability to get into Apple...
12:49:20linuxstbAmien: Did you say you had a 5g?
12:49:33Amienyap
12:49:47Paul_The_NerdWhich install step would allow you to create a bootloader that works for rockbox but doesn't end up with the Apple_Os built in? The last ipod_fw one?
12:50:21linuxstbHow big are the following files you created during the install process? bootpartition.bin, apple_os.bin, apple_sw_5g_rcsc.bin and rockboot.bin
12:50:40linuxstbPaul_The_Nerd: Pretty much any step going wrong will cause that.
12:51:24Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb: I was just wondering, because most of them either don't create the necessary output file, or give you all kinds of warnings if you do them wrong, I though.
12:52:12linuxstbIt implies that the final step to create rockboot.bin worked, but the apple_os.bin (and/or the rcsc file for the 5g) are corrupted.
12:55:33JdGordondoes anyone in here actually use cue sheets?
12:56:12B4gderI doubt that
12:56:15linuxstbYes. :)
12:56:36*B4gder jumps
12:57:14JdGordonis it likely to have more than 32 tracks in a cue?
12:57:14crashdi do
12:57:17linuxstbI make long recordings from radio broadcasts (as MP2 files), and index them using cue files.
12:57:19crashdespecialy for long mixes
12:57:30linuxstbJdGordon: The standard allows for 99 tracks - so you should try and support that.
12:57:37JdGordonoh ok
12:58:18Amienbootpartition was 80000kb .. apple_sw was 5000kb 5g_rsr was 5000kb
12:59:02linuxstbapple_sw and 5g_rcsc are identical in size, or slightly different?
12:59:04Paul_The_NerdJdGordon: What way were you going about implementing CUEs? Treating them as playlists, or treating each subsong as its own whole track?
12:59:28JdGordonbit of both
13:00
13:00:32JdGordonumm.. more each subsong is its own track
13:01:18Amienwas my original apple_os not built in?
13:01:18Paul_The_NerdSo you could have a playlist that only includes one subsong from a .cue?
13:01:34Paul_The_NerdAmien: That doesn't actually answer his question...
13:02:06JdGordonumm, hopefully, not sure how you go about adding individual tracks tho.. possibly like a virtual folder in the dir tree
13:02:24Amienwhat was the question?
13:02:25JdGordonstatic struct cuesheet_info cuesheet = {0}; <- does that zero the whole struct on load?
13:02:29linuxstbapple_sw and 5g_rcsc are identical in size, or slightly different?
13:02:47Amienidentical
13:02:58linuxstbThen that's the error. They have different sizes.

13:03:23Amienand now?
13:03:29Amienrecreate those files?
13:03:32linuxstbYou need to pass "-e 0" to ipod_fw to extract apple_os.bin and "-e 1" to extract the rsrc file.
13:03:56linuxstbYes - start from step d) in the instructions and try again.
13:03:59Paul_The_NerdJdGordon: How 'bout, treating the .cue (or embedded cue) as a playlist if someone loads it in filetree (you can't put individual tracks in separate playlists there, at least not easily as you need to insert the whole .cue then remove subtracks) but have TagCache use the .cue to index individual tracks. That way there's no questionability of the Filetree showing virtual entries.
13:05:51JdGordonwell, im working on loading the cue into a struct so its up to the tree/id3 browser to deal with the actual displaying however they want. adding to the playlist will be simple and would work for both ways
13:08:37JdGordon3KB to store all the info, is that acceptable for ppl that would never use the feature?
13:08:51JdGordoni mean, its that, or HEAPS of open() calls
13:10:18Amien@linuxstb .. works again
13:10:48Amienand both files now have diff siez
13:10:49Amiensize
13:11:07Paul_The_NerdI'm still not sure that CUE sheets shouldn't be handle more like bookmarks than anything else.
13:11:22Paul_The_NerdIt'd be kinda neat if there was a functionality where one could skip to the next bookmark in a file, actually...
13:11:28amiconnI'm still not sure whether cue sheets should be handled at all
13:11:30Paul_The_NerdIt'd be great for audiobooks.
13:12:24amiconnI mean, what advantage does it have to put a complete album into one cumbersome file when we have gapless?
13:12:31Paul_The_NerdNone
13:12:38Amienhow can i switch from ipod to rockbox?
13:12:54JdGordoni dont know how bookmarks are handled now, but its possible with the playlist changes that bookmarks could be made to work like that, i.e jump to next bookmark in track
13:12:55Paul_The_NerdAmien: Menu+Select held down to reboot is the only way. Apple didn't design their firmware to shut down.
13:13:28JdGordonand with a simple flag in playlist.h it can happen transparently from the user :D
13:13:48Paul_The_Nerdamiconn: Honestly I'm quite against the inclusion of CUE, and nobody's convinced me otherwise, since the only excuse I've gotten from people is "I don't want to have to split my files"
13:14:20tucozI don't know how bookmarks works, but I imagine stuff as downloaded dj-mixes, concerts, podcasts(?) etc to benefit from cue support
13:14:25Paul_The_NerdBut I also believe that if it can be included with a very very very low (or no) impact, then there's no reason really against it. 3kb isn't exactly "low" though.
13:14:34Paul_The_NerdSince that's bigger than 1% of binary size added, isn't it?
13:15:22JdGordon3kb is to store all the available info from the cue file in 1 read, instead of having to potentiall reopen the file every time some info is requested
13:15:50JdGordonwhich, when adding an entire .cue could be many, maybe up to 2/track

13:19:31Amiensome album mp3 releases come in 1 big mp3 file .. than cue-support is very nice
13:19:38Amienor livesets of dj's
13:20:04peturmp3directcut can help too
13:20:40Amienyes .. but if i listen to a liveset .. and i hear a nice song .. i wanna bookmark it
13:20:46Amienon my ipod
13:23:04Amienwhen i new version of rockbox comes out .. i just replace .rockbox rifg
13:23:06Amienright
13:23:18Paul_The_NerdBoth the folder and the file.
13:23:27Paul_The_NerdJust extract a new build onto the player.
13:25:37Paul_The_NerdAn auto-split plugin for Foobar2000 that takes .cues and splits the files for you would just about solve the entire .cue question anyway, without increasing the rockbox binary size at all.
13:25:51Paul_The_NerdAnd of course, equivalent utilities for non-Foobar users.
13:26:03Paul_The_NerdI would imagine something that does that duty is out there, isn't it?
13:26:25tucozWould that produce gapless mp3's?
13:26:51tucozIf the file isn't encoded with lame, would the splitted mp3's be gapless?
13:27:11Paul_The_NerdAll the splitter would have to do is write the gapless information to the header, wouldn't it?
13:27:20Paul_The_NerdOr cut the file on frame boundaries
13:27:27Paul_The_NerdOn a DJ set that should be doable, right?
13:27:28JdGordonPaul_The_Nerd: not everyone uses foobar
13:27:39Paul_The_NerdJdGordon: Notice I said "Or equivalent tool"
13:27:42tucozI don't know. I don't know how the mp3-format works
13:27:53LinusNit would be dead simple to write such a tool
13:27:59B4gderI agree the nicest fix would be to write a host-side tool for this task
13:28:04LinusNor even a rockbox plugin
13:28:08JdGordonand even still, rockbox is a DAP os, so it proably should support it because its a very valid use of audio tracks... it should definatly suport this ebfore games and looks :p
13:28:11JdGordonimo..
13:28:21*Paul_The_Nerd notes that he's already suggested plugins for dealing with .CUEs, though not _that_ plugin. ;)
13:28:30LinusNi agree that it is a common thing that would be nice to support
13:28:53Paul_The_NerdMy suggestion was to simply treat a .CUE as a playlist that can't be modified.
13:29:05Paul_The_NerdHandle it with a plugin, for example using Paprica's WPS in Plugins code now that that exists.
13:30:24Paul_The_NerdI mean the whole point of .cues is for when you *don't* want to split the music, right?
13:30:48tucozLinusN, does the wpsbuild.pl script support wpsname/resolution/wpsname.wps? Or did I misunderstand something?
13:32:01LinusNit's supposed to
13:32:11tucozok
13:33:21LinusNtucoz: hmm, it seems to work like this:
13:33:47LinusNthe wps files are named <wpsname>.<resolution>.wps
13:33:56tucozyes
13:34:00LinusNand their respective bmp files are in the <resolution> dirs
13:34:21JdGordonyou frown upon code that does if (b=blaa(c)) dont you?
13:34:31LinusNehum, the <wpsname>/<resolution> dirs
13:34:47LinusNJdGordon: not if it's obvious what the code does
13:35:01JdGordonok, cool
13:35:24tucozLinusN, but the source isn't arranged that way. (unless they use the same bmp's). Now it looks like <wpsname>.<res>.wps, with all the bitmaps in the <wpsname> folder
13:35:34JdGordonbah, im using strcmp not strstr so it wont help anyway :p
13:35:49LinusNyes, the script uses <wpsname> as a fallback if there are no resolution dirs
13:36:05tucozand the bitmaps are called <wpsname>-res.bmp in case they differ from the default
13:36:12tucozoh, I see
13:36:48Paul_The_NerdWait, LinusN, maybe you're thinking of the old script?
13:36:57Paul_The_NerdDidn't it change as a means of decreasing the number of bitmaps?
13:37:09*Paul_The_Nerd could be confused.
13:37:16*LinusN too
13:37:21*tucoz too
13:37:25LinusNi only remember my last changes
13:37:46LinusNwe have discussed another approach though, but i don't think it materialized into real code
13:37:51tucozand you did the latest changes. So, you're probably right
13:40:37*Paprica is playing chopper on his h300
13:40:54amiconntucoz: I never came across a single file from the outside that used a .cue file.
13:41:21tucozTo solve both the bitmap-duplicates issue, and different font for different res, something like this could work: http://pastebin.com/704138
13:41:21amiconnThe only thing where I know cue files from (and occasionally use them) is for copying audio CDs
13:41:36amiconn(.cue + single .wav)
13:41:39 Join PaulJam [0] (i=Paul@vpn-3005.gwdg.de)
13:42:05tucozamiconn, maybe you are right. I don't use cue files myself. Was just thinking of ways where they could be used.
13:42:23tucozregarding the paste, the bitmaps are arranged as currently
13:46:50linuxstbIt's not just cuefiles though - the same principle applies to chained ogg files (a silly concept though IMO), chapter marks in .m4a files (audio books use them I think), and also multi-song tracker files.
13:47:19linuxstbSo breaking rockbox's one file = one track ideology could be useful for lots of reasons.
13:47:54Paul_The_NerdHmm...
13:48:29Mikachuthere are a few formats that are one file per song, but also have a common library file for many songs
13:48:38amiconnBreaking one song == one file means introducing another playlist format
13:48:39Mikachuie minipsf and minigsf
13:48:48Mikachuin case you want to take that into account
13:49:12crashdi use .cue files with mp3 mixes
13:49:38*JdGordon has finished the .cue parseing code... hope it works :D
13:49:41amiconncrash: Any special reason why?
13:49:46tucozLinusN, what do you think of such an arrangement of the wpstree? (in case you got a minute free)
13:49:55Paul_The_NerdYou could though say that "Multiple song files are always played sequentially" and simply disallow the internal tracks from being shuffled. So, once you hit the first song in a CUE/MP3 or chained ogg, next-track always goes to the next subsong until it's done.
13:49:58amiconnI have a number of dj mixes, all properly split into individual tracksa
13:50:00crashdamiconn: so i can see track names, because it's easier to skip into a mix
13:50:12amiconnGapless is nice, and the −−nogap method even works on archos
13:50:14crashdbecause i dont see the need for 50 files for a mix, but 2 is nice
13:50:25crashdone long mp3 and the cue, to allow skipping through easy and to see where abouts you are
13:50:45JdGordonPaul_The_Nerd: that really is an unnescacery limitation... it they are handled properly they should be just like every other track
13:50:54amiconnI just don't see the difference in one cue + mega-mp3 vs. multiple mp3s... handling wise
13:51:04Paul_The_NerdJdGordon: As Amiconn said: Not without breaking the playlist format.
13:51:10amiconnFor rockbox, the .cue method means more overhead + complexity
13:51:21amiconn..and introducing another playlist format
13:51:22crashdamiconn: yeah, but people use them
13:51:28crashdwhich is kinda the point of a good jukebox, non?
13:51:34JdGordonthe change is 1 define and 3 new variables int he track struct.. i.e nothing, and no change to curent code to work fine
13:51:45MikachuJdGordon: on-disk format
13:51:52tucozbut the other issues as linuxstb pointed out are valid enough. Like tracker file formats, .sids etc
13:52:11JdGordonoh, poo... the playlist has an ondisk format like the settings does it?
13:52:19Mikachum3u?
13:52:30B4gderJdGordon: the playdisk control file is on disk yes
13:52:33amiconnWe could get away without a playlist format change, but then it wouldn't be possible to select individual tracks from a .cue
13:52:37Paul_The_NerdJdGordon: You have noticed that you have the option to *save* the playlist, right?
13:52:38JdGordonthats just a text file tho isnt it
13:52:39JdGordon?
13:52:40B4gderplaylist
13:52:41amiconn(when loading from disk)
13:52:51Mikachuyou could do some funny hack like file.cue?track1
13:52:57Mikachusince ? aren't allowed on fat anyway
13:53:08JdGordonPaul_The_Nerd: if u mean saving to m3u, then ye, we'll have to go a hacky route, everything else is easy
13:53:24Paul_The_NerdJdGordon: Saying "go a hacky route" shouldn't be done so casually...
13:53:33JdGordonhaha, yes well :p
13:53:52JdGordonby hacky, Mikachu's suggestion looks good enough
13:54:23Paul_The_NerdAssuming that other programs overlook the ?track1 bit, that means a 12-track .cue has 12 playlist entries.
13:54:37Paul_The_NerdIf a program supports .cue in a .m3u, then you'll get 12 copies of that CUE file loaded up.
13:55:15Paul_The_NerdOne of the best things about Rockbox is that since it uses a standard playlist format, you can plug it into a computer, launch your playlist, and have the same one you're used to on the device.
13:55:50Mikachuconversely, i never use m3u files in rockbox
13:55:56JdGordonm3u's take comments dont they? we can hide it behind a comment then
13:56:14LinusNtucoz: so resolution specific bitmaps would be named <bitmapname>-<resolution>.bmp?

13:57:40LinusNwe could also do it like it works today, with a path search
13:57:44Paul_The_NerdI suppose using comments could work.
13:58:00Mikachuamiconn is concerned another program might strip the comments
13:58:02Paul_The_NerdThough I'd still like to hear a better reason than "Because people shouldn't have to split their files" for why the binary size should increase.
13:58:07LinusNit first looks in images/<resolution>/ for the file, and if it's not there, it looks in images/
13:58:23LinusNon a file-by-file basis
13:58:27tucozyes. That is ok. But, the other issue is the font-stuff
13:58:43JdGordonPaul_The_Nerd: binary size will be tiny.. the 3kb i was talking about it RAM usage :D much worse
13:59:04LinusNyup, and that would be solved by having the WPSLIST in the resolution dir, wouldn't it?
13:59:10tucozyes
13:59:13amiconnAn option would be to allow lists-of-lists (afaik there's even a patch for that)
13:59:31amiconn...meaning one .m3u could contain paths to other playlists
14:00
14:00:01amiconnThen .cue could be handled as another playlist format, and referenced from within an .m3u
14:00:34JdGordonbut we are trying to figure out how to allow users to add individual tracks from the .cue to the m3u...
14:00:40amiconnThe restriction would be that you can't select only parts of the .cue for inclusion
14:00:57amiconnJdGordon: That's simply impossible
14:01:05Paul_The_NerdIf someone wanted to use just *one* track from a .cue, they should split the mp3.
14:01:07tucozLinusN, hmm. We would need a fallback in that case as well. In case the same wps is used for all resolutions. (I think)
14:01:21JdGordonits not impossible... a PITA, but not impossible!
14:01:28LinusNi guess the path approach would work for all files
14:01:28Paul_The_NerdIf they want it split, they should just split it.

14:31:34linuxstbhehe... That first check was with foobar 0.8.3. I just tried v0.9 and it won't even load my cuefile because I list the filetype as "MP2", and it only allows "WAVE", "AIFF" or "MP3". But after changing the filetype in the .cue to "MP3" it does the same braindead thing as 0.8.3
14:31:37***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
14:32:44Paul_The_NerdWait, so it doesn't allow CUEs with FLACs?

14:33:51Paul_The_NerdWeird.
14:33:58linuxstbBut 0.8.3 accepted it without complaint.
14:34:09Paul_The_NerdSeems a somewhat arbitrary restriction to me.
14:34:17 Quit lodesi ("Parti")
14:34:27linuxstbMe too - especially as I'm not aware of any official standard for .cue files.
14:34:47Paul_The_NerdThough I guess with Ogg you may as well use the container's method of doing multiple tracks in one file. But there are plenty of other formats that don't have a container for such things, right?
14:35:45linuxstbChained Oggs seem very odd to me - unless I'm mistaken, you have to scan the entire file to count how many tracks there are.
14:35:56Paul_The_NerdThat's kinda silly.
14:36:01Mikachui thought the point of having mp3/cue was gapless, so having them split in a container would give you nothing...
14:36:27Paul_The_NerdThough since Vorbis Comments allow arbitrary comments, you could just throw on a tag to hold the number of tracks.
14:37:10Paul_The_NerdMikachu: I don't understand what you mean. If you're referring to the Ogg container thing, why wouldn't that be gapless?
14:38:32Mikachuwhy would it be more gapless than just having loose files?

14:39:26Mikachuin theory you could mux mp3s in a .ogg file
14:39:31linuxstbIt's more gapless in most players (not including Rockbox) - which is why people have collections of mp3/cue files.
14:41:49preglowit'll still be a better gapless
14:42:11preglowsome problem samples will always have track transitions with mp3
14:42:16pregloweh
14:42:19preglowinsert "audible" there
14:43:10louhow can there be different levels of 'gapless' ?
14:43:27loueither it has a gap (therefore its not gapless) or its gapless
14:43:36preglowi didn't say gap
14:43:44preglowi said that the track transition will be audible
14:43:49preglowbecause of phase discontinuities

15:00:32linuxstbPaul_The_Nerd: Yes, I just tried a FLAC file with external cuesheet, and foobar v0.9 rejects it unless I make the filetype "WAVE" or even "MP3"... So it seems to force you to use a certain filetype in the .cue file, but then ignores it.
15:02:03Paul_The_NerdWow.
15:02:22Paul_The_NerdThat's kinda strange.
15:02:51preglowthere's no reason it should enforce it
15:02:58preglowsince it uses pure seeking anyway
15:03:07preglowbut it is strange adding it in the first place, yes...
15:05:28Paul_The_NerdIt seems like one of those things where he had a plan for it, then changed his mind and forgot to remove the check?
15:06:09Paul_The_NerdOr maybe it only officially supports the listed formats due to perhaps glitchiness with the others, so at least if someone must use a workaround he can say "It's not my fault, that's not a supported feature."
15:06:27Paul_The_NerdOr <random speculation 3 not found>

15:17:05crashdi have wagners ring cycle in flac, and it wont play properly in foobar, but plays fine in winamp 2.9x with a CUE plugin
15:17:10Paul_The_NerdY'know, with a little improvement, and a "Stand-alone Application" build that's a little more usable than the simulator, Rockbox could probably match it, and be cross-platform to boot.
15:17:33crashdPaul_The_Nerd: except rockbox has loads of cruft that a music player doesnt need
15:17:43crashdO.o
15:17:56Paul_The_Nerdcrashd: Well, a stand alone application certainly wouldn't need to build with plugins and such.
15:18:01crashdyeah
15:18:38crashdthe other problem with foobar is that it isn't in development, really, and the 0.8 and 0.9 branches are totally different, in terms of plugin arch
15:18:43crashdand actual codebase, from what i remember
15:20:49Paul_The_NerdThe sound quality on my DAP is better than the output from my laptop anyway, and there's not easy access for headphones on my desktop, so I don't really use a PC-based audio player anyway.

15:56:47linuxstbSeems foobar only supports FLAC files with embedded cues if the audio is 44.1KHz....
15:56:55 Part LinusN
15:58:47Paul_The_Nerd...odd...
15:59:06Paul_The_NerdBut does it support 48khz FLAC/CUE combinations with the workaround?
15:59:34linuxstbYes - if you mean external cuesheets.
15:59:57Paul_The_NerdYeah
16:00
16:00:38linuxstbI'm not sure how this helps with implementing cuesheets support in Rockbox though... Apart from knowing we can't do it any worse than foobar.
16:01:41linuxstbI guess that's the problem with "standards" that aren't real standards, like .cue.
16:05:32Paul_The_NerdIt's not an easy situation, overall.

19:02:57Paul_The_NerdThat's the script though.
19:03:01mongeyoh
19:03:10Paul_The_NerdBecause Cygwin errored out from letting the script find it, I think
19:03:34Paul_The_NerdDid you find extra cygwin1.dlls when you searched earlier?
19:03:40mongeynope
19:03:51Paul_The_NerdAnd how did you install m68k-elf-gcc?

19:05:37Paul_The_Nerdtype m68k-elf-gcc −−version and see what it says, or if it crashes out too.

19:10:26Paul_The_NerdAlright, so the cygwin install isn't hosed, but somehow those are.
19:11:11Paul_The_NerdI don't really know how to fix it though, aside from removing and reinstalling them.
19:11:15Paul_The_NerdIf that will work even.

22:20:27peturhmmmm dry and too hot here
22:20:32sharpeand i also figured out why it wasn't loading the colors correctly.
22:22:28peturamiconn: does i2c-coldfire also do i2c at 400kHz? Or is it slower?
22:23:34peturamiconn: I also found dips now, and swapping the two calls swaps the slopes on which the peaks/dips occur.
22:24:04amiconni2c-coldfire uses nearly 400kHz at 124MHz, and scales down with CPU clock
22:24:15amiconnWe can't do otherwise
22:24:32peturI think what I'm seeing is just i2c slowness
22:25:19peturone call = 2.5us * 8 * 4 = at least 80us

22:29:18amiconnI would expect that the type of glitch (dips or peaks) does depend both on the order of the i2c calls and the direction of the gain change

22:40:55peturamiconn: with yields and no irq protection, gain change glitches are double in size (12-14 samples) - this is without remote
