00:16:36La_PaRCaHey guys, I am trying to get the bootloader for my ipod but cant. Where can I get it?
00:16:48peturanybody knows why in backlight.c backlight_set_timeout() the index is set to 0 if an illegal value is passed? that effectively turns off backlight, which is not ok on some players like my h340 :/

00:28:22midgey34I knew I used that wrong...
00:28:29peturI'm checking a patch from Massa and it causes backlight to go off. This should *never* be allowed on h3x0 as the only thing you can do is reboot :/
00:28:39midgey34I always says smited as a joke, but I know thats not right either
00:28:53earHertzsmited means hit or struck
00:29:05earHertzso it's not too far wrong

01:25:39S0apI don't know if anyone here is a member of the Digital Archive Project, but they (5-6 years ago) had a problem with people failing to read documentation before asking silly questions in IRC or forums.
01:26:38S0apSo now, you must sign in blood that you have read all the docs before getting forum access, and if you go to their website: http://www.dapcentral.org/ you'll see how serious they are about refusing to answer "not-good" questions.

01:29:34 Quit midkay (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
01:31:12Paul_The_NerdWhat would you do if they didn't read the docs? I mean, your choices are "get rid of them" "ignore them" or "tell them to read the docs", the latter being essentially what we already do.
01:32:34S0apI wasn't suggesting any change, I just love their big bold "READ THE FAQ" when you hit the homepage.
01:34:04S0apThey get ignored quicker than they do here, but that's neither-here-nor-there, different communities have different personalities, I honestly didn't mean to suggest one way is better than the other, just wasting pixels...
01:34:34Paul_The_NerdNah, it's okay. I'm up for new ideas, of course, but I kinda think we should be among the "nicer" projects.
01:35:59S0apMaybe make the job of being nice a qualifying task for official "expert" status...make them spend 3 months on noobie duty.
01:36:01S0ap:)
01:37:28Paul_The_NerdActually, right now part of the qualifications I look into for picking an expert is how willing they are to deal with annoying users, and when they do tell someone off, how they go about it.

02:01:59XavierGrwhen you get the files copy them in /games/doom/
02:02:04Paul_The_NerdWe should host a copy of freedoom, since it's GPLed anyway, so people don't need any commercial wads at all.
02:02:10XavierGror something similar I am not sure

02:07:35koRnhi is there a tutorial on installing jblackglass
02:07:44La_PaRCalinuxstb, nevemind, I rebooted and it worked. Now I am wondering if there is a way to play all mi songs?
02:08:54koRnbecause i have no idea how to install all of this stuff
02:10:45linuxstbLa_PaRCa: One way is to press MENU, then playlist options, then "create playlist". That will create a playlist called root.m3u containing all your music which you can then select to play all your songs.
02:10:46webguest13where shoud i put the wad file?
02:11:09linuxstbWhere those instructions I pointed you to say.
02:12:27XavierGr[03:01] <XavierGr> when you get the files copy them in /games/doom/

02:13:49Paul_The_NerdkoRn: If you need help installing the jblackglass build, ask on his thread.
02:14:21XavierGrthese side builds are getting annoying :p
02:14:28koRnok i will i was just wondering if hew had a guide to walk me through it
02:15:18linuxstbNo.
02:15:40Paul_The_NerdI think the most annoying thing is that some people just don't know what's in official Rockbox and what's not.
02:17:12koRndo i have to patch rockbox
02:17:18koRnor is their a build with it
02:17:24Paul_The_NerdAlso the phrase "Well, I'm using one patch, but it SHOULDN'T cause that sort of bug" as an excuse not to try the CVS build.

02:18:50koRnthats what i just did
02:19:06koRnhttp://solutions-i.org/julius/rockbox/patches/
02:19:12koRnwhich is the build
02:19:25*Paul_The_Nerd points out that those files are not at rockbox.org
02:19:32Paul_The_NerdAs I said, for stuff that's not ours, you need to ask in the thread
02:21:27koRnok
02:21:39koRnand how do i accsess my songs in rockbox
02:21:50koRni hold menu and sopmething pops up
02:21:51XavierGrselect them
02:22:01koRnhow
02:22:06Paul_The_NerdYou find the song, and click on it with the center button.
02:22:15koRnwere is the song
02:22:18Paul_The_NerdWhen you hold menu, you get a menu... which isn't necessary to play songs.
02:22:24Paul_The_NerdWhere have you put them on your iPod?
02:22:30Paul_The_NerdThe songs are wherever they are...
02:22:34koRni dragged them into itunes
02:22:56XavierGrno don't use itunes
02:23:16XavierGrhave you installed rockbox?
02:23:17Paul_The_NerdWell, iTunes renames them and hides them
02:23:27Paul_The_NerdSo, you're going to need to use the TagCache feature, explained in the manual
02:23:52XavierGriTunes is EVIL!!!
02:24:08XavierGrI still can't understand who is the idiot behind this abomination
02:24:25XavierGrwhy rename the files with such random names?
02:24:27XavierGrit isn
02:24:37linuxstbTo reduce the memory footprint of the database.
02:24:53XavierGrstill it sounds stupid to me
02:24:55linuxstbAnd given that Apple doesn't provide a file browser, it's not an issue.
02:25:07XavierGranother stupidity of retail OS
02:25:11linuxstbAnd you don't have any right to want to copy files back to your computer...
02:25:18XavierGrhahaha\
02:25:24XavierGrthat's a good one
02:25:35XavierGrstraight for the Golden Quotes! :D
02:25:44Paul_The_NerdI like how the Sansa prevents you from copying files back to your computer.
02:25:53XavierGrit does?
02:25:55XavierGrhow?
02:26:08Paul_The_NerdIf you transfer them over in MTP mode, and then switch it to UMS mode, it marks all the ones transferred via MTP as "Hidden"
02:26:19XavierGrhaha
02:26:33linuxstbDoes it keep the filenames though?
02:26:37Paul_The_NerdYup
02:26:37XavierGrso if you select to see hidden files you can see them?
02:26:56linuxstbThat would still prevent 90% of users from copying them though.
02:27:04Paul_The_NerdYes, if you have "Show hidden files" you aren't prevented in any way from copying them. Though I assume DRMed files won't play.
02:27:06earHertzthe memory footprint part is klegitimate; I have some song filenames > 300 characters
02:27:09XavierGrand linuxstb if it was only for memory reasons why not rename all the files with just a number?
02:27:35XavierGr300 characters?
02:27:49XavierGryou can't have more than 250 characters on a filename
02:27:53XavierGrat least for FAT
02:27:56earHertzXavierGr: good point, thiough having seperate dirs does make sense: the fileystem dir pages can be completely filled
02:28:09earHertzXavierGr: NTFS
02:28:36XavierGrwow you have deep direcroty structure
02:29:21 Part pixelma
02:30:34*linuxstb was bored and found the longest filename in his music directory to be 191 characters...

02:40:55S0apsearch for blackglass - returns plenty of hits here.
02:41:04Paul_The_NerdHeck, the only reason it's not the first link is because the first one is the original thread before I moved it.
02:41:19koRni cant tell which one on his site is it
02:41:27Paul_The_NerdThen ask in the thread

02:54:26earHertzkoRn: enjoy
02:54:36buzzardohh i see

02:54:51XavierGrfor the prdoom. Download the zip for windows and then copy the .wad in your player
02:54:55shof515when wil the official one have it?

02:56:05Paul_The_NerdearHertz: The official Rockbox will probably end up with last.fm support.
02:56:07XavierGrit seems I got it wrong
02:56:16shof515when does that come out?
02:56:16earHertzkoRn: the .zip, yes

02:58:36S0apis there info in the wiki on the structure of the runtimeDB?
02:58:39Paul_The_NerdearHertz: TagCache obsoleted TagDB, runtimeDB is disabled until it's brought into line.

03:00:25koRnall i did was change a theme in ipodwizard
03:00:40S0apdon't know anything about ipodwizard
03:00:52Paul_The_NerdkoRn: Did rockbox work after changing the theme?

03:02:19Paul_The_NerdearHertz: It should be integrated yes, so that you can say, "Search for songs added in the last 10 days" or "Search for 100 least played songs"
03:02:31koRnthen the apple logo comes up
03:02:37Paul_The_Nerdbuzzard: You CANNOT improve the quality upward by conversion.
03:02:46Paul_The_NerdkoRn: Then you removed the bootloader when you used iPodWizard
03:02:47koRnthen it just goes straight to apple firmware
03:02:49koRnno text

03:02:58koRnso what do i do
03:03:00buzzardso the onlyy way to get better quality to to rip from a cd
03:03:00wehn_buzzard: like photocoping photocopies, it only gets worse
03:03:11koRnreinstall the bootloader
03:03:11Paul_The_NerdkoRn: If it's removed, I bet you need to install it...

03:33:43koRni know it is off topic but does anyone know how to fix it when you click on a folder it opens up search with that folder as the peramameter?

03:34:23webguest13i dont have a game map
03:34:47Paul_The_NerdGame map?
03:34:50koRnanyone know what is wrong with my comp?
03:35:04Paul_The_Nerdwebguest13: What do you mean by "game map", because nobody has said anything like that.
03:35:17Paul_The_NerdkoRn: Google.
03:35:25webguest13<koRn> in ipod drive:\games\doom
03:35:28earHertzkoRn: got nme
03:36:00koRnjesus paul if you dont have an answer please dont say google. if i wanted to search goole i would have
03:36:05Paul_The_Nerdwebguest13: Yes, and what about that has anything to do with "maps"
03:36:06koRnio was asking if someone knew how
03:36:22koRngoogle
03:36:26Paul_The_NerdkoRn: Yes, you asked, off topic, nobody answered, and you then repeated the request.
03:37:02koRnreally i repeated it
03:37:13Paul_The_NerdYou repeated the request.
03:37:14koRni stated what was wrong
03:37:25koRnthen asked if anyone knew what was wrong
03:37:31Paul_The_NerdYou asked the question, then you asked a second question equivalent to the first.
03:37:36Paul_The_NerdBoth ended with questionmarks: Two questions.
03:37:37webguest13Paul_The_Nerd: where shoud i put the wad file...
03:37:46Paul_The_Nerdwebguest13: \games\doom
03:37:46koRni aked how to fix it
03:37:52koRnthen asked what was wrong
03:37:58koRnto diffferent questions
03:38:06Paul_The_NerdkoRn: They relate to the same off-topic concern.
03:38:16Paul_The_NerdUnless you're talking about some other problem with your computer you've yet to describe.
03:38:31Paul_The_NerdAs I've told you before, this is #rockbox anyway.
03:38:36koRnpaul could you do me a favor
03:38:56Paul_The_NerdProbably not, since I imagine it'll be something silly like "leave me alone"
03:39:03koRnplease just dont talk to me. all you do is tell me to search google and get me mad
03:39:17koRnid ignore you but opera chat doesnt have it built it
03:39:19koRnin
03:39:33Paul_The_NerdWell, I'm sorry, but "I don't want to search google" is not an excuse to try to use this channel as your own personal tech support resource.
03:39:42earHertzkoRn: Paul_The_Nerd's been very patient and helpful to you, and he works very hard to faciliatate rockbox
03:39:44koRnwell then dont reply
03:39:51earHertzplease showe him some courtesy
03:39:52S0apkoRn - it's not a matter of "if I wanted to search Google I would have"...it is a matter that you are EXPECTED to do your own due diligence and search google first
03:39:58koRnhe has not helped at all
03:40:14koRni was asking if someone had a similar problem
03:40:22koRnand if no one have i would have
03:40:23Paul_The_NerdkoRn: Earlier you even admitted I helped you install your bootloader, didn't you?
03:40:27earHertzkoRn: well, nobody does
03:40:35koRnno linux did
03:41:04earHertzkoRn: just be nioce. Paul_The_Nerd's suggestion to google was perfectly legit
03:41:11koRnok well i would go search google now it just annoys me how he always tells me to search google when someone may havehad a similar issue
03:41:14kergotha failure to do at least minimal research before coming on irc and wasting everyone's time is a sign of disrespect. you're assuming that your time is worth more than everyone elses. it isn't. get of fyour ass.
03:41:16S0apsaying Paul_The_Nerd hasn't helped is like bitching Linus T. won't hold your hand installing Debian.
03:41:36Paul_The_NerdkoRn: Whether or not someone else has had a similar issue, THIS IS NOT THE PLACE TO ASK. It's that simple.
03:41:47koRnwell lets see
03:41:49Paul_The_NerdIt is ESPECIALLY not the place to ask if you have not taken the time to search for yourself first.
03:41:53koRnyour talking about t bone steak
03:41:59S0apfor something you keep saying you "need" you don't try very hard.
03:42:03koRnbut that is on the topic of rockbox
03:42:09koRnand computers arent
03:42:25kergothoff topic chat is fine, off topic chat _that has other, more appropriate support channels_ is not.
03:42:26Paul_The_NerdkoRn: The talking about the t-bone steak was not a request for off-topic support though. Especially it wasn't one that was reiterated.
03:42:34webguest13i dont have a map call game on my ipod!!!!
03:42:46Paul_The_Nerdwebguest13: Do you mean "folder" or "directory"?

03:43:43Paul_The_Nerdwebguest13: So?
03:44:14Paul_The_NerdkoRn: Simply put, you have already more than once requested off-topic support in here. There's a difference between idle chatter, and coming here and asking non-rockbox questions repeatedly.

03:47:14webguest13y
03:47:27Paul_The_NerdIs that "Yes" or "Why?"
03:47:36webguest13yes
03:47:43Paul_The_NerdIt would be really helpful if you used full words.
03:47:50Paul_The_NerdOkay, so which official wad do you have?
03:47:51webguest13okey
03:48:08webguest13i have rockdomm wad
03:48:13webguest13rockdoom
03:48:13Paul_The_NerdNo, besides rockdoom.
03:48:23Paul_The_NerdI said you need rockdoom AND an official one.
03:48:48 Part koRn
03:48:53webguest13witch is the offcial one?
03:49:02Paul_The_NerdThe one that comes with doom when you buy it.
03:49:17sharpesuch a great way to put it
03:49:22earHertzPaul_The_Nerd: wil the prboom wad work/
03:49:37Paul_The_NerdearHertz: The prboom.wad is a resource wad for that source port, not a game wad
03:49:40webguest13buy it?
03:49:44earHertzoh
03:49:57Paul_The_Nerdwebguest13: When you buy Doom. You can also download the shareware Doom and use doom1.wad from it.
03:50:13webguest13k
03:50:16webguest13okay
03:50:20Paul_The_Nerdwebguest13: Or you can get Freedoom (google for that word, should be first link) and use that wad, renamed to doom2.wad
03:50:25earHertzIrt's fumnny, I have prboom on my zaursu, which is an arm chip like he ipod and has tehe same 320x240 screen (but the zaurus has less dpi)
03:50:50sharpePaul_The_Nerd: or the second link goes to the download page. heheh...
03:51:23Paul_The_Nerdsharpe: I really think we should host freedoom.wad at the PluginDoom page, and change the plugin to default to it.
03:51:39sharpesounds like a reasonable idea.
03:51:49Paul_The_NerdFreedoom is all GPLey and stuff.
03:51:59Paul_The_NerdI think
03:52:14sharpeGPLey vaguely reminds me of the word 'jelly,' not quite sure why.
03:52:29S0apmmm, peanut butter and GPLey
03:52:43S0apoh, I guess I'm late to the punch

04:23:21EbErTsorry i'm not so knowledgable

05:14:00midkayin fact the setup is not uncommon at all.

05:14:25Paul_The_NerdAll four boot options, many less than 17 steps and 3 or 4 downloads.
05:15:34Paul_The_NerdHeck, our bootloader allows you to boot into Apple, Retail, or Rockbox as well, and of course Disk Mode is always available. :)

05:16:49Paul_The_NerdHahaha
05:17:04midkayyeah......
05:17:06Paul_The_NerdActually, I briefly had a version of our bootloader that would load the retail OS from a .bin file in the fat32 partition, instead of the special partition.
05:17:24Paul_The_NerdBut it was unable to play music or enter USB mode, so it was kinda useless.

12:06:07Loeckchenis it common for 4g ipods when having rockbox installend and being switched off, that battery is dead the day after?
12:06:24Loeckchenyesterday i switched off the ipod and today morning battery was dead

12:09:39Loeckchenor could it be that i had the ipod in my pocket and while coming home accidentally pressed a key and switched it on?
12:10:35JdGordoncan i bug some1 to commit the reminaing patches from http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/5191 so that task can be closed?
12:10:46LinusNwow! there are 603 users in twiki that haven't edited a single topic

12:13:42JdGordondamn!
12:13:59LinusNspeaking of bug reports, i don't like the tone of some of bluebrothers comments
12:14:11Loeckchenmh i also have problems with today's ipod4g build
12:14:29Loeckchenafter the loading screen sometimes the rockbox logo appears and then the thing hangs
12:14:32JdGordonnicely let him know? or ban his ass :D
12:14:42Loeckchensometimes it hangs even before displaying the rockbox logo
12:14:57Loeckcheni have now gone back to yesterday's build which works fine

12:48:03Bg3rfirmware/pcm_record.c ?
12:48:06aliaskWhere does audio_record lead, if not in the current file? I grepped the /recorder/ directory, and the only function by that name is the simulator dummy one. (Sorry to be a pain, but I'm so curious as to how this is working...)

12:49:29aliaskWell I could hardly be hunting a bug without looking at the relevent code...
12:49:39JdGordonwould it be possible to add a timeout to a boost call? so a function to call cpu_boost(true,HZ); (for example) to boost the cpu for 1 sec so it doesnt have to manually call cpu_boost(false); ?
12:50:21Bg3rwhy would you want it ?
12:51:04JdGordonfor stuff like button loops so u could call tell it to boost and not have to worry about disableing it, make things easier...
12:51:59LinusNi'd say that it would make debugging harder
12:52:04Bg3rbut how would you know how much time will be enough for the cpu to do the specific thing
12:53:26JdGordonhmm... ye, i guess i didnt tihnk that 1 through enough
12:53:34*JdGordon goes back to drawing board
12:54:19Slasherianother thing which could be added as an option, would be to spin-up hd when user starts browsing so the disk would be ready when selecting the actual song
12:58:28LinusNwouldn't that kind of defeat the purpose of the dir cache?
12:59:20JdGordonyes and no.. dir cache would still show the directories faster
12:59:41dongslol, hd
12:59:48JdGordonit would possibly be a good alternative tho for ppl who dont care about the batt and do care about wased ram
13:00

13:11:17peturBg3r: I know what you mean there, it's just that keeping the drive spinning will eat battery big time, so maybe it needs both: if slideshow time > n seconds shut down disk immediately, else keep it running
13:11:49safetydanIs it possible in rockbox for write() to write less than the given number of bytes?

13:12:22CreativePonyand just where is the tools directory?

14:41:18SliMM10x
14:43:00frandohello, I just installed cvs-060712 on my ipod 4g. followed instructions correctly. Then I unplugged the ipod from the usb port and started the device. Rockbox started booting, and now it's showing the rockbox logo for about 5 min, and nothing is happening when i push a button. My computer is not recognizing it if I'm plugging it into the usb port. Any ideas?
14:43:18frandosorry, I meant 060713, not 12
14:44:51SliMMdo the cvs work with ms vc++ 2005?
14:45:48PaulJamfrando: if it is a g4 greyscale ipod, maybe this bug is still there: http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/5332

14:51:44frandomost of my music collection is ogg ;)
14:52:10SliMMyes
14:52:10fabbariIt should have worked if you did the installation properly...
14:52:21SliMMfrando
14:52:26PaulJamtry a build from 060509. it is a little bit old, but it propably works
14:52:40frandohmm, i did the installation properly
14:52:41SliMMjust search google for that
14:52:47frandotheir did no errors occur
14:52:51fabbariOk.. than it's bad luck! ,)
14:52:56SliMMand take a look at a cached version of th wiki
14:53:07frandoyeah, i'll try google cache
14:53:57SliMMpls someone help me with cvs
14:55:40SliMManyone
14:57:29PaulJamhow should someone know if he can help you if he doesn't know your problem? so just ask and wait until someone answers.
14:57:41 Part cybersense
14:58:49SliMMwell this is my problem: i don't know how to use cvs
14:59:01frandoare you using linux or windows?
14:59:09SliMMwindows :(
14:59:28frandoby the way, has anyone an idea what i could try with my ipod 4g greyscale apart from trying to use an older version?
14:59:29frandook
14:59:41frandoSliMM: download tortoisecvs
14:59:56frandohttp://www.tortoisecvs.org/
15:00
15:00:13frandoit's propably the simplest way to use cvs on windows
15:00:20peturit is
15:00:25SliMM10x
15:00:35*petur hugs the tortoise ;)
15:00:38SliMMso will ms vc++ 2005 work?
15:00:41PaulJamfrando: fix the bug :P or maybe you can find a solution for your problem in the forums.
15:00:47frandowhat has that to do with cvs?
15:01:00SliMMdon't i need a compiler?
15:01:38frandofor tortoisecvs? no, you can just download the binaries..
15:01:48peturSliMM: any editor will do, but mc vc++ adds cr-lf lineendings and must be configured properly to insert spaces iso tabs
15:01:54PaulJamthe recommended way to compile under windows is to use the vmware image (or cygwin)
15:02:35linuxstb_frando: Someone reported the same problem with today's build a couple of hours ago (in this channel). He/she said that yesterday's build (2006-07-12) works fine.
15:02:38SliMMuhm... right?
15:02:58frandolinuxstb_: thanks, i'll try immediately
15:04:58linuxstb_Bagder: (or anyone that knows) Are the daily builds built via the distributed build system, or are they all done locally?
15:07:16SliMMbrb, i have to restart my computer :)

17:21:20breakerIs anyone working on recording for the iPod? Has anyone looked into the ipodlinux code which supports recording?
17:22:22KylePVyeah, maybe someone could better it and get recording to work for 5G's
17:22:31Slasherihmm, just wondering if i should start designing the runtime db integrated with tagcache or wait for the feature freeze to end
17:23:13KylePVstart designing, so that after the feture freeze we can maybe get it one time
17:24:01Slasherihmm, true. maybe i will. in the beginning just hiding the feature or marking it as experimental
17:24:17KylePVcool, once it there
17:25:34Slasheriand for units without rtc, it could be possible to use some increasing counter value to give some estimate how long it has been when some song has been played last time
17:26:27Slasherithat way it would be possible to create smart playlists based on last playback time, playback count or the automatic score
17:28:49Slasherithe only hard thing at the moment seems to be how to identify each song.. whether to use the tags or filename but both can change
17:29:07KylePVmakin my mout water, start coding :), lol
17:29:16 Join _Veseliq_ [0] (n=veseliq@195.85.215.210)
17:29:27Slasheriprobably i will just use the filename, and automatic changelogs so user can manually update the changelog if moving/renaming files
17:29:31Slasherihehe :D

17:31:17 Quit frando ("Cu all!")
17:31:44Slasheribut all kind of checksums will lead to other problems.. you never can be sure they are unique and taking a checksum from the whole content of a file (only way to be even a little sure of uniqueness) will cause significant delay when adding files to tagcache
17:39:20 Quit JoeBorn ("Leaving")
17:40:52PaulJamWouldn't it be possible to make a checksum of only a part of the files for example only the first few kB of actual compressed audio data?
17:47:13linuxstb_breaker: I'm planning on implementing ipod recording after 3.0 is released.
17:48:31linuxstb_Slasheri: Regarding the tagcache virtual filesystem, have you thought about how to handle a "/" in the tag?
17:49:18Slasherilinuxstb_: ah, hmm no :)

17:49:51SlasheriPaulJam: yep, but then there is the risk of having same checksum for several files
17:50:12Slasherifor example raw wav data with silence at the beginning, or different mixes etc.
17:50:29 Quit PyromancerX (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))

17:54:12Slasherilinuxstb_: that is nice, but unfortunately not all formats have that
17:54:31PaulJammaybe i is possible to detect silence at the beginning without actually decoding the file and skipping the silent part. for the different mixes i have no idea. can it really be that they have the exact same bits in the strat of the song?
17:54:45Slasheriand having the checksum for only data itself is good because that way tags can be modified without changing the checksum itself

17:55:23SlasheriPaulJam: or take samples from different locations from file and generate the checksum using that data
17:55:41 Quit PyromancerX (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
17:56:04linuxstb_Or just a block of data from the middle...
17:56:17 Join XavierGr [0] (n=xavier@ppp176-190.adsl.forthnet.gr)
17:56:19Slasherilinuxstb_: yep, that might be quite good idea to try
17:56:55linuxstb_But you still need to completely parse any headers at both the start and end of the file to find the start and end points of the audio data in the file.
17:57:04Slasheriblock from the middle of file with a fixed align
17:57:28Slasherilinuxstb_: hmm, it might be better to just use the filesize instead.. and the fixed align
17:57:44linuxstb_But then when the headers change, the checksum will change...
17:57:53Slasherino it wont
17:58:00Slasheriunless the headers are in middle of the file :)
17:58:17linuxstb_What do you mean by filesize then? If the headers change, the filesize changes...

17:58:31Slasheriyep, but with fixed align that wont be a problem

17:59:13breakerID3V2 tags in mp3 files are at the beginning. So it is possible to change the header and the "middle" of the file also changes.
17:59:30Slasherilinuxstb_: ah, in fact you are correct..
17:59:40Slasherias the data itself might move in file also?
17:59:47breakeryes.

18:00:24linuxstb_Which is why you would need to at least read all the headers at the start of the file, and probably any at the end as well.

18:39:58Paul_The_NerdTake away a feature to make it easier to use?

18:40:37Jungti1234well
18:40:40Paul_The_NerdYou're suggesting that we give people less options, so that it is easier.
18:41:00PaulJami wouldn't like to see one of the "main" buttons to be used for a feature that propably only a few people would use
18:41:03Jungti1234less options?

18:41:27Paul_The_NerdYes, less options.
18:41:46Jungti1234what's option?
18:42:02Paul_The_NerdRight now you can set both the A point and the B point separately. So if you miss the B point, you can re-set it, without having to re-set the A point. With a single-button method, it alternates between the points, so if you set A you HAVE to set B next.

18:43:02Jungti1234Do you understand its A-B way?
18:43:11Paul_The_NerdYou press the button to set A, then press it to set B, and it loops between them.
18:43:26Jungti1234then?
18:43:34Paul_The_NerdThen what?
18:43:38Jungti1234Can't Rockbox do it?
18:44:13Paul_The_NerdBut it's a worse way!
18:44:32Paul_The_NerdI'm sorry if your translation issues prevent you from understanding, but it limits the options of users for this feature.
18:44:53shamgarif you don't like it can't you just modify the rockbox code yourself?
18:45:14Jungti1234?
18:45:21PaulJamthe majority of users propably can't code
18:45:33shamgaroh yeah
18:45:37Jungti1234shamgar: sorry..
18:45:38shamgarthose "other" people
18:45:47Jungti1234I don't know C
18:45:54Paul_The_NerdI've heard many people say they like the way our A-B repeat works better than the original.
18:46:05Paul_The_NerdIt would be unfair to users to take away functionality we've already included in CVS anyway.
18:46:06Jungti1234So, I'm thankful always to them.
18:46:37shamgarI think its a matter of getting used to it, jung, just try and get used it it you will start to like it
18:47:15Jungti1234I'm uncomfortable method of USB charge, too.
18:47:19PaulJamPaul_The_Nerd: they have done it already in the past (taking away funktionality)
18:47:32Jungti1234That press two buttons at the same time.
18:47:49Paul_The_NerdPaulJam: What functionality was removed permanently?
18:48:13 Quit Paprica (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
18:48:52Paul_The_NerdI know changes have been made with user complaint, such as the volume being converted to dB, but in actuality that added functionality (or at least, functionally useful feedback from the device).
18:48:53PaulJamthe automatic lowering of bass and treble on high volumes to prevent clipping (i really lked it), but it was only for a few days in cvs
18:48:55Jungti1234hmm
18:49:28shamgaris anyone interested in working on the iriver h10, I am thinking about getting one, but I don't have much experience hacking hardware
18:49:28Jungti1234I'm not discontent about it(dB).
18:49:52Paul_The_NerdPaulJam: Yes, but now you can reproduce the exact same behaviour by lowering it yourself, plus you have access to the full range if you don't mind the possible clipping. While you can argue it was removed functionality, there's an equally valid argument that it added to Rockbox.
18:49:54Jungti1234Use method is more important than it.
18:51:12Paul_The_NerdJungti1234: Many people like the two-button method for A-B
18:51:23Jungti1234If press easily recording button, it can be uncomfortable.
18:51:58Jungti1234Need to press recording button long to record.
18:52:34Jungti1234recording button doesn't work now.
18:52:51Paul_The_NerdYes, the recording button doesn't do anything yet.
18:52:52PaulJamPaul_The_Nerd: it was optional. but i don't miss it anymore, i now use config files to change between headphone and line settings, and on headphones i usually don't go over the volume my bassbost is set to.
18:53:10Jungti1234Iriver's player should like to exchange menu button to recording button.
18:53:14Jungti1234only iriver.
18:53:29Paul_The_NerdPaulJam: I didn't remember it being optional. I must've missed that then.
18:53:50Jungti1234And A-B's function makes like iriver's firmware.
18:54:06Paul_The_NerdJungti1234: I keep explaining, making A-B work like the iRiver firmware gives the user less control over it.
18:54:17Jungti1234and show quickscreen if press A-B long.

18:57:21Jungti1234Can't

18:57:38Paul_The_NerdIf you change it to the A-B button, you take that away.
18:57:45Jungti1234ok, I agree.. but
18:57:57Jungti1234It can change again.
18:58:02Jungti1234Play + A-B
18:58:13Jungti1234For example..

18:58:21Paul_The_NerdWhat about for the other one?

18:59:02goffawho's on first?
18:59:04Jungti1234You thought so many things....
18:59:57Jungti1234yep... Rockbox has very convenient UI.
19:00
19:00:00Paul_The_NerdSo, you want to move Menu off of A-B, just press A-B for the A point, and Play+A-B for the B point?
19:00:14Jungti1234Very convenient.
19:00:27Jungti1234not complaint.
19:00:51Paul_The_NerdWhat about people who never use the A-B repeat feature? Now that button is being reserved for a small portion of users?
19:00:59Jungti1234Can't I have complaint about Rockbox at all?
19:01:12Jungti1234I spoke that it's uncomfortable.
19:01:20Jungti1234And I spoke my way of thinking only.
19:01:23Paul_The_NerdYes, and you said you think it should change.
19:01:33Jungti1234It's my way of thinking ONLY.
19:01:43Paul_The_NerdShouldn't an idea be explored?
19:01:56Paul_The_NerdHow can I know whether your idea is better without questioning it and comparing it to the current method?

19:05:43webguest84need some help
19:05:53Paul_The_NerdAsk away
19:06:20webguest84now that ive heard about rockbox i dont know what mp3 player to buy. iPod 60GB or the iAudio X5L 60GB?
19:06:41webguest84here's my thread: http://iaudiophile.net/forums/showthread.php?t=10205
19:07:08Paul_The_NerdWhy do you refer to the iPod as the partner of Rockbox?
19:07:20Paul_The_NerdIt runs on the X5L
19:07:29Paul_The_NerdAnd several iRiver players, and several Archoses.
19:07:53Paul_The_NerdYou say that the iPod is slightly ahead in your mind. Why is that?
19:08:10Paul_The_NerdSimply put, if it's ahead, why *not* buy it?

19:09:45linuxstb_webguest84: You don't say what you are looking for in an mp3 player... They both run Rockbox, so the software features are identical. The only difference is the hardware capabilities.
19:10:01webguest84ok i see
19:10:01webguest84bit
19:10:03webguest84but*
19:10:21Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb_: Not only that, but his required "features" are available under Rockbox on either hardware from the looks of it.
19:10:34webguest84the ipod has a better LCD screen
19:10:35linuxstb_For example, does video playback matter to you? What about FM radio?
19:10:42linuxstb_(and recording)
19:10:47webguest84yes they matter, but for those i can switch to normal firmware?
19:11:02 Quit scorche` (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
19:11:06***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
19:11:36Paul_The_NerdWell, the iPod's video playback is much better, of course.
19:11:39linuxstb_The ipod's the clear winner in terms of video playback, but has no FM radio unless you by an accessory.
19:11:55linuxstb_And then the FM radio probably wouldn't work with Rockbox.
19:11:57Paul_The_NerdAnd the accessory is much less likely to be supported any time soon, I'd imagine.
19:12:06webguest84yer
19:12:20webguest84also the iaudio comes with a remote
19:12:36PaulJamno, but you can buy one

19:12:46webguest84for the ipod?
19:13:04Paul_The_NerdI have bad luck with H120 remotes.
19:13:13linuxstb_Yes, you can buy almost anything as an accessory for the ipods...
19:13:13webguest84was thinking of iriver, but dont have hd bigger than 20gb
19:13:21Paul_The_Nerd40Gb
19:13:25webguest84thats another thing, ipod has more accessories
19:13:37webguest84customed installed hd paul?

19:13:41 Quit Rondom ("Ex-Chat")
19:13:44linuxstb_...because it's missing a lot of features as standard

19:14:04 Quit Pyromancer (Connection reset by peer)
19:14:07webguest84i see but those are dis-continuied?
19:14:17linuxstb_And also the ipod has ipod-specific accessories because it uses a proprietory connector. Other DAPs just use standard connectors, so generic accessories work.
19:14:30PaulJamthere are still places that sell the h340
19:14:38webguest84ok
19:14:53webguest84what would you go for if you were in my posistion
19:14:58Paul_The_Nerdwebguest84: Your best best is to look at the built-in hardware, and decide which one you like better for what you get in the box.
19:15:16webguest84yer thats whats got me stuck to choose lol
19:15:20Paul_The_NerdIgnore firmware options, like what formats it can play, if you're gonna use Rockbox. Just look at the hardware's capabilities.
19:15:36Paul_The_NerdWell we can't make the decision for you? I can't say "A radio is more important than a nice screen, buy the X5L"
19:15:40Paul_The_NerdBecause that's what I'd say.
19:15:52webguest84thats why i said if you were in my posistion

19:18:54*Paul_The_Nerd thought you were gonna rockbox it.
19:19:13webguest84i am
19:19:15linuxstb_If you're running Rockbox, the difference is "remote + radio" vs "better screen, nicer video"

19:20:10linuxstb_Yes, the 5Gs can record.
19:20:20webguest84o and apparently from what ive read that rockbox is drain on the X5 battery?
19:20:36Paul_The_NerdIt's a drain on both
19:20:44webguest84i see
19:20:50linuxstb_I think that's been fixed to some extent on the X5 - there's a patch in the patch tracker which claims to improve battery live.
19:20:50Paul_The_NerdBut the X5's life has gotten a lot better with a recent patch, I believe
19:20:55linuxstb_:)
19:21:05webguest84hmm lol
19:21:07Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb_: Actually, I believe it was just committed.
19:21:29linuxstb_The video ipod will run for about 10 hours under Rockbox, and about 15-20 hours I believe under the Apple firmware. I don't know about the X5.
19:21:36Paul_The_NerdWell "just" is within the last 18 hours somewhere.
19:21:38webguest84now i believe the only reason to go for the ipod is the LCD screen size and quality
19:21:59Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb_: I believe the X5 is reported up to about 15-20 now with the patch, though I haven't seen conclusive benches.
19:22:02webguest84and i think the X5 supports xvid and divx
19:22:04linuxstb_Yes, it's a nice screen, but if you spend 99% of your time with it in your pocket, is it a big issue?

19:25:11webguest84doesn't beat a 60GB though :P

20:11:45breakerFor timing purposes, how do the current_ticks work? I mean, are they adjusted with the frequency? I suppose not, and that means (tick_count / HZ) is not always 1. So the sleep timer for example is not exact if we have a target that can change it's CPU frequency.
20:16:27*goffa hopes the wiki comes back up soon
20:16:49goffai want to build the cross-compiler again... then i can try that new patch on my x5

20:19:38sharpegood day.
20:19:47breakerSo when I have an iPod and the CPU runs with 30 MHz, the ticks are counting the same amount in one second as they do when the iPod runs at 75 MHz?
20:19:57amiconnbreaker: To be precise, archos and ipod don't need any adjustment. Archoses have a fixed cpu clock, and ipod timers run from a separate, fixed microsecond clock
20:20:21amiconnbreaker: That's what HZ is. There are HZ ticks per second. Always
20:21:03amiconnOn coldfire targets, there's a slight instability whenever the cpu clock changes. One tick period can become short or long by a few milliseconds
20:21:12amiconnAfter the change, the timer runs stable
20:23:38breakerI saw in powermgmt.c: TIME_AFTER(current_tick, sleeptimer_endtick). And the sleeptimer_endtick is calculated once. So the timeout depends here if the CPU frequency, right?
20:24:04breakerIs it because it doesn't use timer.c|h? (Whatever is coded in it, I didn't look into it.)
20:24:53goffah140 and x5 are m68k right?

20:39:49breakerOK. Let me explain. :) At start, I have HZ = 70000000. sleeptimer_endtick = current_tick + timeout * HZ; calculates to 70000000 (assuming current_tick == 0 and the timeout we want is 1 s). Then the CPU frequency changes to 30 MHz. That means in one second after that, current_tick is 30000000, in over 2 seconds it is >=70000000 and so the sleeptimer would react after > 2 s, even if I wanted 1 second.
20:40:15breakerAm I wrong here?
20:41:45amiconnYes you are
20:42:03breakerWhere exactly?
20:42:13amiconnHZ is a constant. It's equal to 100
20:43:06amiconncurrent_tick is the tick counter. It inrceases by one every 10ms, or by HZ every second
20:43:09breakerIn the sequence I wrote, I only use "HZ" at the beginning to calculate the sleeptimer_endtick. After that, I don't use it.
20:43:21amiconnThe cpu clock has nothing, I repeat _nothing_ to do with it
20:43:52breakerAh, 1 current_tick == 10 ms! Now I understand.
20:44:04amiconnNo, 1 tick == 10 ms
20:44:10breaker:) OK.
20:44:15amiconncurrent_tick is the global variable that ticks

21:49:59Paul_The_Nerdryran: Possible, but right now Plugins are really launched by way of the filetree, rather than by a menu of plugins, so I don't know if there's a way to put a menu option that simply launches a single file.

22:08:18BigMacso then it would be Z:Rock
22:08:19dionoeaand properties or something like that
22:08:19jhMikeSbigmac: Windows decides that, you have to edit the registry
22:08:20BigMacthen?
22:08:25BigMacoh nvm
22:08:35BigMacim not capable of registry editing
22:08:37dionoeaBigMac: you found it ?
22:09:00Harryryran
22:09:19LandusI imagine I'm supposed to ignore the "Device purchased in the US is not compatible with this firmware" warning?
22:09:21BigMacwhat if i made a .reg file
22:09:27Harrypaulk

22:09:38jhMikeSBigMac: Is caches the drive letter for a device in a list of mounted devices in the registry. I've changed it by editing the registry before.
22:09:44Paul_The_NerdLandus: You'll lose your DRM support (can't buy music from Napster / Walmart / Etc online stores)
22:09:48Paul_The_NerdHarry: What?
22:09:51LandusI never do.
22:09:52Harrypm
22:10:02LandusDRM = lame.
22:10:17jhMikeSBigMac: I wouldn't do that. Just use regedit. Lemme look...brb
22:10:20LandusIt makes storing music on computers a royal pain in the ass.
22:10:23Paul_The_NerdI have not received a PM. You can't send them unless you register with the server, I believe.
22:10:26BigMacmike: is it possible to make a .reg that would do the same thing as changing the drive letter
22:10:39BigMacive not had much succsess with regedit
22:10:43Harryomg

22:11:05dionoeayou know where to find the defrag util ?
22:11:05BigMacthere is an excellent tutorial on the forum

22:11:13Harrybugmac
22:11:15Harrycan u link me
22:11:15Paul_The_NerdHarry: Yes, to apply patches you need to be able to at least compile rockbox.
22:11:16Harry:)
22:11:26BigMacok illl look

22:11:27Harrylol

22:12:19Paul_The_NerdHarry: Give a man a fish, feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, feed him for life. I'll gladly answer questions you have when you try to figure out how to compile following the directions.
22:12:22dionoeaBigMac: the last item of the "Storage" node should be named something like "drives handling" (this is french to english)
22:12:29dionoeathis will list all the drives
22:12:33jhMikeSBigMac: It's under HKLM\SYSTEM\Mounted Devices
22:12:39dionoeaif you right click on one it allows changing the driver letter
22:12:45Paul_The_NerdBut if I were to compile a build for you, in a few days rockbox would update, and you'd have to choose between whatever patches were applied and the new official stuff.
22:12:46BigMacharry:http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=4689.0
22:12:48dionoeaand it's far less risky then editing the registery

22:13:26BigMacso is their anyway i can make it into a .reg files
22:13:41jhMikeSBigMac: You'll see some values like "\\DosDvices\\x:" where "x" is a drive letter
22:14:11jhMikeSBigMac: I wouldn't because a reg file can't figure out which is the correct entry.
22:14:19midgey34BigMac: (on XP)go to control panel, administrative tools, computer management
22:14:19midgey34BigMac: click on the left side where it says disk management (under storage)
22:14:19midgey34BIGMAC: right click on the drive and select 'Change Drive Letters and Paths'
22:14:24dionoeanot that it answers the question but: why would you want a reg file if you can use your mouse to change it ?
22:14:35dionoeaBigMac: hehe, midgey34 has the "english" version :)
22:14:50midgey34I do indeed

22:18:10dionoeawell it should be the same resolution as your LCd
22:18:12Paul_The_NerdAt 24-bit color
22:18:13jhMikeSBigMac: I guess that's easier. I just change things in REGEDIT all the time and never bothered to look. :)

22:18:33Harryand
22:18:38Harryhwo do i turn off my ipod
22:18:41sharpewell... i have page allocation/deallocation working...
22:18:41Harryor put it into sleep
22:18:43midgey34BigMac: to install a theme, you should be able to unzip the file to the .rockbox folder
22:18:44sharpehold play
22:18:56Harryty
22:19:00*dionoea remembers messing up with regedit and only being able to run "notepad.exe". all the other exes were forbiden
22:20:08midgey34basically, make sure the wps (and folder of bitmaps) is in the wps folder, cfg in the themes folder, and the backdrop is in the backdrops folder
22:20:40BigMacok so how do i do it for jblackglass

22:21:01BigMacitll get stickied
22:21:13Paul_The_NerdActually, it won't get stickied.
22:21:19BigMacbecause im sure im not the only person who has evere had this question
22:21:26BigMacaww
22:21:28Paul_The_NerdBut as it is, jblackglass has jbuild. You should just extract it over your normal rockbox build.
22:21:31BigMaci can't patch
22:21:47BigMaci just extract jbuild to my root?
22:22:33Paul_The_NerdProbably
22:22:34BigMacor into .rockbox?
22:22:36jhMikeSdionnea: Why, why edit? I'm just trying to help someone out. But you taught me something too. Thanks.
22:22:44BigMacwell thats what i want to know
22:22:53Paul_The_NerdBigMac: Well, extract it somewhere else, and see what's in it.
22:23:09Paul_The_NerdIt'll probably have a .rockbox folder which you should copy over yours.
22:23:14Paul_The_NerdAnd a rockbox.ipod file, again, copy over
22:23:20BigMacwell ill ask pijulius when he comes on
22:23:26BigMacmaybe hell write a tutorial
22:23:48Paul_The_NerdI just told you how to do it.
22:24:04BigMacyou said probably
22:24:15BigMaci dont want to do it and mess it up
22:24:27Paul_The_NerdBigMac: Also, it says in the FIRST POST in his thread how to install it, now that I actually go look

22:24:48BigMacyah but that is the theme not jbuild i though
22:24:54BigMacohh
22:24:59BigMacthats what threw me
22:25:09jhMikeSWhat's the X5 LCD referesh rate or the LCD chip clock rate? (I asked before but it was LATE)
22:25:48jhMikeSI mean for the HW, not for rockbox
22:26:32midgey34BigMac: go to http://solutions-I.org/julius/rockbox/
22:27:01jhMikeSBeuhler, Beuhler. Anyone, anyone?
22:27:02BigMacso is it as impresive as it looks in the screenies on an ipod (blackglass)
22:27:13linuxstb_jhMikeS: LinusN or Bagder might know. (I know nothing about the X5)
22:27:15Paul_The_NerdEh, it's just a theme.
22:27:18midgey34download your build (video 32MiB, video 64MiB, photo) and extract the zip to the root of your player
22:27:45midgey34overwrite rockbox.ipod and .rockbox or delete them first

22:39:50dionoeai don't know if tools to do that exist
22:39:52Paul_The_NerdIf you convert them to bdf, we have bdfconv that converts them to rockbox compatible.

22:45:16LandusWhat does that mean?
22:45:17BHSPitMonkeyBigMac, iPL technically doesn't have an interface
22:45:18midkayprobably just people who care about music playback instead of games and fancy menus.

22:49:27RaeNyejhmikes: what's that?
22:49:28LandusMan, this blows.
22:49:39LandusWhat's the point of using Rockbox when the wiki is down?

22:49:54RaeNyelandus: listening to music
22:50:03Harrylol
22:50:14LandusIt's a miracle that I managed to get Rockbox working without the wiki.
22:50:15jhMikeSRaeNye: A more progressive chip shutdown with inactivity would be better. The display can be turned off independently.
22:50:29Paul_The_NerdLandus: There should be a google cache of the SimpleGuideToCompiling page.
22:50:36LandusThat's what everyone says.

22:53:23jhMikeSRaeNye: linexstb said to write a plugin to get the exact frame rate. I'm not sure how to proceed with that so I'd like to get the source to one for help. test_fps only tells you how many time it can call lcd_update in a given time but nothing about the true HW refresh rate.
22:53:56LandusPaul_The_Nerd: How did you get that?

23:13:06Mooswhat's about the TLV shutdown patch (1 line)
23:13:09jhMikeSWhy when I do a long press on the Power button but not long enough to cause the shutting down screen to pop up, does the X5 suddenly power off with no warning?
23:13:10MoosLinus :)
23:13:25 Part Paul_The_Nerd
23:13:30RaeNyethe line that got you was the "no previous programming exprience needed", right? ;-)
23:13:37jhMikeSAfter about 10 seconds, that is. Everything seems like it's still on.,
23:14:03Mooshehe :)
23:14:47MoosjhMikeS: never experimented this behaviour
23:15:47jhMikeSMoos: Try it. Hold it just under the time for rockbox to do the poweroff. It's always done that so nothing I did made it happen.
23:15:49RaeNyejhmikes: might be related to a watchdog timer (protect the hardware from wasting power when entering an endless loop
23:16:51RaeNyethe PCF50606 (power unit) might have this kind of protection activated once it detects a long POWER press
23:16:54jhMikeSRaeNye: Not sure what endless loop it would be entering. When that happens, power_off() is never called.
23:17:55jhMikeSRaeNye: The power off button should probably have a slightly shorter timeout so rockbox get it first...always.
23:19:04jhMikeSRaeNye: But then there's that really LONG power press that you have to do if it hangs.
23:19:09RaeNyethe points of a watchdog timer is that you have to acknowledge the timer periodically or else it declared your device "stuck". The reason for you to get into a situation where you fail to acknowledge the timer could be entering an endless loop, but also a plain no-acknowledge policy
23:20:44RaeNyeBut mostly I don't really know the answer
23:21:14jhMikeSRaeNye: I still have to get into learning the CPU in detail but you're being helpful.

23:22:30jhMikeSAnd the audio "pop"
23:22:38RaeNyeit seems related to the white screen phenomenon
23:23:00jhMikeSRaeNye: The BL on with chip off will give you a white screen.
