#rockbox log for 2006-09-06

00:00:00barrywardelli don't mean build the manual. i just mean open the file with a text editor and look for CONFIG_KEYPAD == IRIVER_H10_PAD
00:00:07barrywardellyou will see the keymaps there

00:01:03ArathisYes, I understood that. But _I_ meant that I downloaded the CVS to build the manual, not that I'll build it now ;)
00:01:17barrywardellah, ok. sorry
00:01:38Arathisbtw, how much memory does the tag-cache use of the flash in % ?
00:02:25barrywardelli don't know how much memory it uses, but it uses disk space, not flash
00:02:25 Quit lodesi ("leaving")
00:02:26Arathisjust asking because when I wanted to quit the jpeg viewer he said "not enough plugin memory" and showed the keys instead of showing the menu
00:02:39barrywardellyou can also set it to use ram for faster browsing of music
00:02:43ArathisI activated "to RAM"
00:02:52Paul_The_NerdRAM still isn't flash
00:03:01Paul_The_NerdAnd TagCache and Plugins use different portions of RAM anyway
00:03:02cinicHello, I installed the rockbox on my nano ipod and when I open my ipod one tells me www.apple.com/support/ipod That must I make?
00:03:02Arathishm, that's right

00:05:41linuxstbcinic: Maybe not. Can you tell me the filesize of the following files you created during the installation? bootpartition.bin, apple_os.bin and rockboot.bin?
00:06:03Arathisbarrywardell: JPEG_ZOOM_IN (BUTTON_PLAY | BUTTON_REL) | does that mean it isn't defined yet and the two in brackets are possible solutions?
00:06:32barrywardellit means that zoom in is Play+release
00:06:47barrywardellso short press of play
00:07:02barrywardellzoom out is play+repeat so long press of play
00:07:44linuxstbThat sounds confusing...
00:07:57Arathisand what is JPEG_ZOOM_PRE ?
00:08:23 Quit BHSPitLappy (Remote closed the connection)
00:09:43barrywardelli'm not totally sure
00:10:01 Join Firefly [0] (i=4887db7a@gateway/web/cgi-irc/labb.contactor.se/session)
00:10:26barrywardelli think it's used when you have the same button doing different things depending on whether it's a long or a short press
00:10:58Arathis#define JPEG_ZOOM_PRE BUTTON_PLAY
00:11:02Arathisthat's the whole line
00:11:14*barrywardell isn't too familiar with button code
00:11:38amiconnYes. The _PRE means precondition, i.e. Zoom in triggers on release of Play _only_ if the previous button event was pressing Play
00:12:02barrywardellArathis: it doesn't do anything by itself, it's just used for the next two lines
00:12:04FireflyOk I have a problem. I installed Rockbox on my brother's 4th generation iPod and now he cannot access it from his PC
00:12:20amiconnZoom out is triggered by a long press, i.e. when button repeat kicks in
00:12:22 Join secleinteer [0] (n=scl@70.230.157.188)
00:12:29linuxstbFirefly: Is he using a firewire connection?
00:12:34Fireflyyes
00:12:53amiconnWithout th e_PRE, releasing the button after the long press (when you zoom out) would trigger the zoom in as well
00:13:13amiconnThe _PRE suppresses that
00:13:36linuxstbRockbox doesn't detect firewire, so he'll need to manually reboot into disk mode. From rockbox, hold PLAY for a few seconds to shutdown cleanly, then press SELECT or MENU to turn it back on, and then immediately press and hold SELECT+PLAY. He'll probably need to hold MENU+SELECT to reboot and leave disk mode when he's done.
00:14:22amiconnlinuxstb: Do we know how to detect firewire?
00:15:03linuxstbI'm not sure... I don't have a cable, so haven't investigated.
00:15:25amiconnI don't have a cable either (assuming the mini g2 still supports firewire)
00:15:34Fireflydoes rockbox detect usb fine?
00:15:35amiconnThe newer ipods don't afaik
00:15:53linuxstbYes, I think everything up to the Nano and 5g supports firewire. The very early ipods were firewire only (no USB).
00:16:05linuxstb(everything before the Nano/5g)
00:16:16Arathisbarrywardell: play for zoom works. too bad there are only two zoom sizes. and the H10 isn't capable of images with 512,9 KB, 950x860. 62 KB, 700x900 works, so it's not the resolution, but the filesize :/
00:16:42Arathisat that he shows what I described earlier: keys and memory problems
00:16:53amiconnMy Laptop has firewire (marked i.link) as well, so if I could find the necessary cable as well...

00:19:57barrywardellArathis: i think plugins are limited to 512KB?
00:19:59Fireflywhat kind of language does rockbox use
00:20:43barrywardellArathis: ah, maybe I was wrong so. I've never used the jpeg viewer
00:20:53Jasoni would say C and assembler
00:21:06linuxstbI would say Jason would be accurate.
00:21:15Fireflyhmm maybe it cuold be ported to the ds...

00:26:54Arathisthat's weird: in brickmania there are two ways of releasing a the ball. to the right and to the left. on H10 reight is scroll up and left is play. in brickmania.c it says "#define SELECT BUTTON_PLAY" and "#define UP BUTTON_SCROLL_UP" and I don't know what "#define DOWN BUTTON_SCROLL_DOWN" is needed for in brickmania.

00:29:40Arathisbarrywardell: ah, yes. didn't think of that.
00:30:11Arathisbut that is quite bad for comfort in the game itself :/
00:30:24ArathisH10 isn't really made for gaming ^^
00:33:27barrywardellthose buttons can be changed if you find a better way to use them. it might make play a bit easier
00:34:44Arathisthe problem is touchstrip is the best way to go through menus. how could I change this?

00:38:48Arathisso did you mean to change the gamecode or just the keymap?
00:39:11ArathisI don't realy get what you wanted to say.
00:40:09 Quit ender` (" PHP is a minor evil perpetrated and created by incompetent amateurs, whereas Perl is a great and insidious evil, perpetrated")
00:40:51barrywardelli mean you can change the keymap so that the game is more comfortable to play
00:40:59 Quit tvelocity ("Αποχώρησε")
00:41:11Arathisthat's my problem
00:43:07Arathisselect for the menu is the same as releasing the ball to the left ingame. I would have this on scroll_down, but this is down in the menu and so can't be select at the same time
00:44:16Arathisthe problem is, that there are no seperate definitions for release and menu navigation.
00:44:28Arathisor ingame and menu navigation at all
00:45:33Arathiswait. didn't think about buttons having more than one select-mode
00:46:27Arathisscratch that. that dosn't solve the problem
00:48:27barrywardellah,ok. it would need some more editing of the code to get it working then
00:48:54amiconnbarrywardell, Arathis: The plugin RAM is 512KB. If plugins only use that, they can work in parallel with music playback. But plugins can also request to use the main buffer, which is much larger. Doing so will stop playback
00:48:55Arathisyes. but I won't do that today. perhaps another time
00:49:36amiconnThe jpeg viewer does both. If you're viewing a small image and/or use lowe zoom levels, it keeps the music playing

00:49:42barrywardellamiconn: thanks for clearing that up. i was a little confused by it
00:49:56amiconnIf you zoom in further, it should ask whether it's allowed to stop playback
00:50:02Arathisamiconn: ..or won't let the plugin work, but music still plays
00:50:18Arathisit hadn't even loaded the image
00:50:26Leovinushi
00:50:31amiconnSome other plugins always use the main buffer and therefore stop playback as well: rockboy and doom
00:50:33Arathisamiconn: but are there realy only two zoomsizes?
00:50:47amiconnNo, there are 4 zoom levels
00:50:57amiconn1/8, 1/4, 1/2 and full size
00:51:10Arathisdo I need to activate them ?
00:51:22Arathiscause I only get two here
00:51:29 Quit Leovinus (Client Quit)
00:51:29amiconnThe plugin chooses the largest one that completely fits the display with a new picture
00:52:04amiconnThen you can zoom in up to full size (if you allow playback to be stopped, or don't have it running in the first place)
00:52:42amiconnWith very small images, you won't see all zoom levels
00:52:58Arathisaahhh. playback was the key again. thanks for clearance
00:53:53 Join Strath [0] (n=donat@dpc6747254230.direcpc.com)
00:53:55amiconnFor some reason the request to stop playback doesn't work properly if the small zoom level fits without stopping playback, but higher levels would need to stop
00:54:05Arathisgreat. now I can read my beloved webcomics on the go ^^
00:55:22Arathisrimfrost on H10. almost as great as rockbox XD
00:56:52pregloware multithreaded plugins possible?

00:57:32amiconnpreglow: Sure, why not?

00:57:46linuxstbpreglow: I certainly hope so (for mpegplayer's sake)...
00:57:50preglowwould be kind of cool if the jpeg viewer decoded the image why you viewed it
00:57:54preglowwhile
00:57:56SoapI just ordered 8 ipod dock connectors from ridax. Now I just need to bribe linuxstb to release the recording code.
00:58:09amiconnpreglow: How should that work?
00:58:22amiconnThe plugin doesn't know what the user will do next
00:58:41Arathislol. dicing in rockbox. there must be some rpg-fan coding rockbox plugins :)
00:58:59preglowamiconn: one thread working on decoding the entire image, while the main thread lets you navigate what has been decoded so far
00:59:07amiconnBtw, of course starting threads in plugins does work. How else would tsr plugins be possible? (battery_bench, alpine_cdc)
00:59:36amiconnAs long as you don't use up all slots in the scheduler...

01:07:17***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
01:07:24barrywardelli've yet to look into why
01:07:46amiconnThat's probably because your pcm driver doesn't support setting the sample rate yet

01:08:33Arathisbarrywardell: where do I need to put the files? they don't seem to be in the bloody edge build
01:08:37linuxstbbarrywardell: They probably shouldn't be checking for ipod keypads, but for audio codecs - as amiconn said, the WM* codecs only support 44.1KHz at the moment.

02:48:48Nibbierthis CVS build server thingy, how would my PC be used? ppl log in to it to build, and then transfer the bin from me to them?
02:49:01Nibbierwould that be faster for them than locally building?
02:49:52amiconnIt's a script
02:50:11amiconnAnd yes, it's faster, otherwise we wouldn't do it in this distributed fashion

08:01:30Bagderpondlife: 'gdb program', 'run'
08:01:34pondlife;-)
08:01:54pondlifeWhilst debugging, in a locked / endless loop situation, is there a way to force a break?
08:02:07pondlifeMust be, surely - but I can't spot it
08:02:24pondlifeI don't have a gdb prompt at this point for starters.
08:02:26Bagderyou mean control-c doesn't work?
08:02:41pondlifeThat's probably the information I was missing
08:02:44pondlifeI'll give it a go
08:02:46pondlifeThanks
08:03:18pondlifeNope
08:03:45pondlifeI put the focus back to my Cygwin/GDB window and press CTRL-C, but no joy
08:03:52pondlifeRockbox keeps on rockin'
08:05:27pondlifeTried CTRL-A to -Z just in case, but only closing the sim will get me a prompt back.
08:07:17pondlifeAnd CTRL-BREAK
08:08:58Bagderweird
08:11:21pondlifeMaybe a Cygwin failing?
08:12:31pondlifeI wondered if there's a compiler option required to enable keyboard checks.
08:13:21Bagderno
08:14:30Bagdercontrol-c sends a break to the program, and gdb catches it and halts the execution
08:14:39Bagderthat's at least what happens on Linux
08:14:51pondlifeControl-C to the sim window?
08:15:07Bagderin the shell window where you run gdb
08:15:19pondlifeOK, tried both, but notthing
08:17:10pondlifeAlso tried GDB program <pid> from a seperate shell

08:49:45amiconnpondlife, Bagder: The problem with ctrl-c not working in the sim on cygwin is probably that the sdl sim isn't a console application. Same thing as the annoying fact that debug output isn't written to the window, but to a file
08:50:06Bagderaha
08:50:24*Bagder knows very little about Windows stuff
08:50:39amiconnIt's a problem of the sdl sim; Ctrl-C as well as debug output worked fine both with the win32 and the X11 sim

09:44:56markunRudy4Pez: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IpodFAQ#How_to_start_the_original_Apple
09:46:53Rudy4PezThat's from deep sleep, I'm wondering about from complete shutdown..
09:47:12Rudy4PezIt's been pretty inconsistent as to whether it will or won't boot OF..
09:47:25Rudy4PezI'm wondering if I'm pressing Menu at the wrong moment or something.
09:48:48linuxstbYou need to press it as early as you can - just before the apple logo appears. But if you're frequently booting into the Apple firmware, you may want to use the ipodlinux bootloader instead - that gives you a boot menu.
09:49:11 Join bluebrother [0] (i=VW1xcAHY@nat-wh-1.rz.uni-karlsruhe.de)
09:49:15Rudy4PezYeah, the only time I need OF is when I need to charge it up faster.
09:49:45Rudy4PezI think I was pressing it right after the logo appeared and that's why it wasn't working.
09:49:48linuxstbHave you tried charging in disk mode?
09:50:16Rudy4PezNo, I usually charge in Rockbox by holding Menu as I insert the charger...
09:50:32Rudy4PezHow much power is drawn when in disk mode?
09:51:27linuxstbNo idea... You could test it - it would be interesting to know charging times in Rockbox, disk mode and the original firmware.
09:51:53Rudy4PezYeah, I didn't even know I could charge from a wall adapter whilst in disk mode... Hehe.
09:52:15linuxstbYou need to force it into disk mode first - i.e. hold SELECT+PLAY whilst booting.
09:52:25Rudy4PezYeah, I figured that much..
09:52:49Rudy4PezDo you have an iPod?
09:52:58linuxstbYes.
09:53:04Rudy4PezLatest build?
09:53:19linuxstbNormally newer than the lastest build...
09:53:24Rudy4PezHehe.
09:53:26Rudy4PezThat's true.
09:53:54Rudy4PezI wanted to submit a request to have the EQ interface for hardware EQ to be graphical, like the software one..
09:54:24Rudy4PezBut my build is a couple of weeks old, so I wanted someone with a newer build to make sure that hasn't already been done before I went ahead and asked for it... Heh.
09:54:41linuxstbNo, I don't think it's been changed.
09:54:47Rudy4PezOk.
09:54:56Rudy4PezDo you know if it'd be a hard thing to implement?
09:55:59linuxstbProbably not - if the person implementing it knows the Rockbox GUI code.
09:56:14Rudy4PezCool cool.
09:56:34Rudy4PezIt's just a lot easier to wrap my head around the waveform when it's graphically represented. :)
09:57:17Rudy4PezEasier to edit too, you can switch from slider to slider in one screen, whereas now, with the hardware EQ, you have to go in and out of menus.

11:14:23webguest666getting to the drawn card from the stack is correct , its leaving the drwan card to get back to the stack where I think that the joystick direction and cursor direction is reversed

13:31:46mirakgames on the 2600 are not worth. espcially when you see someone managed to port doom
13:31:54theli_uai've look through open-source emulators of 2600 .. none of them was written in C .. one was in CPP though ... but it would require rewriting and so ...
13:32:45mirakdoes having a remote control alows to have more buttons, or they just the same than on the device ?

13:37:44D_C_how come rockboy lags when playing some GB games? is this just because of coding? or isnt a iriver powerful enough
13:38:49theli_uabecause targets cannot cope with emulation with current state of optimizations
13:40:31linihey,
13:41:00liniperhaps this has been discussed already, but why not commit some of the patches from the apple unofficial builds in the CVS?
13:41:33liniin particular - the headphone detection, the piezo driver, etc...
13:42:30liniI'm sure there's a valid reason but I don't know what it is :)
13:43:14Bagdervalid reasons also include "because no person with commit has bothered yet"

13:51:45theli_uabtw, what is the main bottleneck for grayscale lib speed? memory usage, spu speed or LCD driver ?
13:51:56Mmmmoh no... I'm getting this error for archos builds again (with my patch). "sh-elf/4.0.3/../../../../sh-elf/bin/ld: region FLASH is full"
13:52:34Mmmmis the patch really adding that much extra code? or is it my gcc again?

13:55:15JdGordonBagder: did u add my comp to the builds?
13:55:19Bagderyes
13:55:39JdGordoncan u run a dummy build to see the speed diff?
13:55:43JdGordonor just be patient?
13:55:49Bagdercommit something! ;-)

14:10:26daurn|laptopmaybe textedly violent games
14:10:27daurn|laptop;)
14:10:36JdGordondoes anyone think it would be a good idea to put valid values in the auto-generated .cfg file?
14:10:42daurn|laptopi was about 3 when the first gfx games came out
14:10:47daurn|laptopYAY superfly!
14:10:56JdGordonnot only for the worded values, but for int values also
14:13:58bluebrotherJdGordon, I think so as it makes a nice template for own cfg files.
14:14:34bluebrotherbtw, does your rework also load the default settings from a file and not the disc sector anymore?
14:15:09JdGordoneverything from files
14:15:22JdGordonsorry.. default is hard coded
14:17:18bluebrotherlike /.rockbox/default.cfg?
14:18:41JdGordonno, sorry, i miss read you.... the defaults are loaded from the hard coded list... but it will automatically use /.rockbox/config.cfg and /.rockbox/data.cfg as storage. (data.cfg is for the settings which need to be saved but not user configurable.. like the random seed and such)
14:18:59bluebrotherah, ok.
14:19:38bluebrotherso this will break my current work on loading themes from tar files ... but hopefully solve my settings issue I have still left for solving :)
14:19:51JdGordonwhy will it break it?
14:20:40bluebrotherbecause settings will be different? ;-)
14:21:07JdGordon.... which ones? im trying to keep it as close to current as i can...
14:21:21bluebrotherI assume saving a setting needs to be coded a bit different, so I'll need to adjust that.
14:21:42JdGordonyes, im having a blast doing all 3 million settings now :p
14:21:44bluebrotherI'm speaking of my currently unreleased work ...
14:22:33JdGordonok
14:22:56*JdGordon doesnt expect to finish this any time soon......
14:22:58bluebrotherI want to have themes stored in tar files. But in my current approach I need to save the name of the theme.
14:23:17JdGordonwhy tar? wouldnt zip be better?
14:23:17bluebrotherif you want to have a look: http://www.stud.uni-karlsruhe.de/~uhcn/rockbox/tar-themes2.patch
14:23:36bluebrotherfor some reason after a reboot opening the theme fails.
14:23:43bluebrotherbecause tar can't be compressed.
14:24:00JdGordoncan u even make tars on windows?
14:24:16bluebrothersure. 7zip for example can do.
14:24:22 Join barrywardell [0] (i=892b7a6e@gateway/web/cgi-irc/labb.contactor.se/session)
14:24:25bluebrotheror use the command line tar ;-)
14:24:39JdGordon... and whats wrong with compression? wont it just slow down the loading? or too complicated to code?
14:24:52bluebrotherit would make the code more complex.
14:25:24bluebrotheranother option would to go for uncompressed zip files only, but this will generate heaps of users complaining why their zip files don't work
14:25:36Bagderyes, tar is fine
14:25:48LinusNJdGordon: some values might have to be stored in nonvolatile memory, like the RTC memory on Archos and EEPROM on the irivers
14:26:04bluebrotherthe only problem with tar is the fact it doesn't have a seek table. So every time we access a file in a tar we need to seek the complete file until found.
14:26:25bluebrotherI compared iCatcher. Unfortunately loading from tar was slower :(
14:26:36Bagder:-(
14:26:46bluebrotherbut as you don't change themes very often I think this isn't too bad.
14:26:47theli_ua;-(
14:27:21bluebrotheralso, my current state still leaves the possibility for using the old style. So if you are only using one theme and want to get it faster just untar the theme.
14:27:34JdGordonLinusN: hmmm... which? why?
14:27:38bluebrotherbut it would simplify distribution of themes a lot.
14:28:04LinusNJdGordon: for example the usb-charge options
14:28:11BagderJdGordon: we also want the seed/playlist resume info in the config sector rather than a cfg
14:28:18Bagderimho
14:28:25Bagdersince it is saved very often
14:28:25LinusNJdGordon: or car adapter mode
14:28:40JdGordonok, we can deal with these more special cases later...
14:28:53LinusNBagder: it doesn't have to be saved often
14:29:09Bagdertrue, if we fix that to not save very often
14:29:26dan_abluebrother: Why not have your code untar the theme that the user chooses to, say $THEMES_DIR/active_theme? And just overwrite this directory when the theme changes?
14:29:47dwihnoI'm finally getting my act together for a disk upgrade for the ol' archos... Are there any specific disks you guys would recommend or disapprove of? (The Hitachi disk I'm currently using has the RLD issue).
14:30:30bluebrotherdan_a, there is already a plugin which does so for zipped themes but I like it better not to extract it. It's cleaner IMO.
14:31:48bluebrotherI thought about creating a seek table the first time the theme is accessed but currently I don't have to much time working on that.
14:32:43bluebrotherwith the archive I also have the advantage that I can ignore paths. Currently some theme zips use .rockbox as base folder, others / which is a bit painful.

15:15:44tucozregarding your tar patch. I like the idea of distributing themes as .tar files, but i read that that you experienced a speed-penalty. Wouldn't it be faster to simply cat the entire theme in one file (using a script) and just load the images from there?
15:15:48 Join lear [0] (n=chatzill@static-213-115-42-21.sme.bredbandsbolaget.se)
15:16:21bluebrothertar is esentially all files cat'ed together with a 512 byte header block in front of each file
15:16:53tucozthat is, cat the .wps + bmp1 +bmp2 + bmp3... and keep the bmps ordered the same way as in the .wps file
15:16:53bluebrotherthe problem is that I currently simply load the files by modifying the file pointer to point to the beginning of the file
15:16:59learwhich means lots of overhead for some themes, btw.
15:17:08learisn't there some padding as well?
15:17:23bluebrotherso for each file to open I need to search the complete tar (in the worst case)
15:17:38tucozyeah. that is not good
15:17:43bluebrotherfiles are padded to 512 byte boundaries.
15:18:00learzip could be better then, since you have a toc at the end
15:18:10bluebrotherbut IMO this space waste isn't a problem as we have enough.
15:18:24bluebrotherI still see the problem with the compressing for zip
15:18:36learnot too bad, no, but for one test the overhead was 100%. :)
15:18:53learwho said anything about compression?
15:18:55bluebrotheralso, has zip a pointer where exactly the toc is located? Otherwise we still need to seek the complete file for the toc
15:19:14Schnueffindividual files would be padded to cluster size, so there's no space waste
15:19:15bluebrotherlear, nobody. But users will get this confused for sure :)
15:19:19learI think it is at the end of the file... Haven't really read the spec.
15:19:32tucozbluebrother: couldn't you introduce a toc yourself?
15:19:57tucozthat is tar+toc?
15:20:00bluebrotherI have actually seen a toc at the end, but if I want to seek fastly to it I should be able knowing its location from the beginning of the file
15:20:17bluebrotherI had the idea to generating a toc file upon first opening the tar.
15:21:01tucozwould adding the files in sorted order be better?
15:21:02bluebrotherI simply didn't had the time looking into it.
15:21:26bluebrothernot really. Except if the wps loading gets reworked completely.
15:21:46bluebrothercurrently loading requires only a few changes.
15:22:05tucozhmm. I thought the bmp's in the .wps got loaded in the same order as they appear in the file
15:23:05bluebrotherthey do, but for each file a separate bmp gets opened. Thus, if I don't want to modify the loading heavily, I need to create a new file pointer.
15:23:17bluebrothermeaning the loading code does a open().
15:23:25tucozyes I have seen that
15:24:10bluebrotherI haven't looked into zip deeply. If zip has a pointer where the toc actually lives this would be an option.
15:24:28bluebrotherbut the wikipedia description of the tar file format is ways better than for zip ;-)
15:24:46tucozbut the article on Philip Katz is interesting
15:24:48tucoz;)
15:24:49bluebrotherfor now I wanted to try writing a theme cache.
15:25:39bluebrotheroh, zip can now do bzip2?
15:27:35tucozi like the idea of having themes in one file, but it would be interesting to see the difference in loading time between .tar/.zip/merged files etc.
15:28:06tucozthat is, i would probably not use it if loading time increased.
15:28:29bluebrotherI tried zezayer, which was nearly identical. iCatcher was about 1.5 the time of the exploded version.
15:29:03tucozok. I know it isn't much. maybe a second extra for iCatcher?
15:29:29bluebrotherok, just had a look at the pkzip size. zip does have a "central directory" at the end, but no pointer where exactly that directory is.
15:29:50bluebrotherso with the current approach I'd run into the same speed problem.
15:30:01tucoz:(
15:30:17bluebrotherI think I'll give the cache a try when I find some spare time to do.
15:30:35tucozjust measured. from boot to file-browser is ~4s on my h120
15:30:54bluebrotherthat way it would be slower on the first open but shouldn't be noticeable slower on successive opens.

15:32:09tucozMaybe you can find some ideas from there
15:32:22linuxstbbluebrother: When loading from a .tar, can't you process the .tar from beginning to end, loading each bmp file into the wps image buffer as you go?
15:32:39bluebrothergood idea. I guess I'll find something reading the logs.

15:34:55linuxstbAnd in any case, it's the random access which slows it down. Reading the bitmaps consecutively will always be faster.

15:35:10JdGordon:'( it still crashes :p
15:36:01linuxstbbluebrother: You could have some kind of cache - to tell the WPS loader that a certain .bmp file has already been loaded into the image buffer, and what its position/size is.

16:01:32*linuxstb can make coffee
16:01:34amiconnbluebrother, linuxstb: Just concatenating all BMPs is probably the easier way.
16:01:58Quarrymanmake: *** No rule to make target `coffee'. Stop. :-(
16:02:26JdGordonw00t!! my settings can load/save to/from a txt file 100% correclty now :D
16:02:30linuxstbamiconn: But then how do you refer to them in the .wps file? Unless you write a tool to concatenate them in a pre-defined order.
16:02:47amiconnRefer to them just by order
16:02:52bluebrotherI like the idea of the cached bmps.
16:03:13bluebrotherso the first load would be slow but successive loads pretty fast.
16:03:27Niacinso thats a no I/O via the dock port?
16:03:48JdGordonNiacin: what dock port?
16:04:40NiacinJdGordon you mean what model? on the 5g
16:05:12JdGordonno i mean what dock port.. how are we supposed to know u meant ipood?
16:05:14linuxstbamiconn: You mean in the .wps file itself? That seems inconvenient...
16:05:39amiconnWhy? Right now you assign each BMP a letter
16:06:01amiconnConcetenated BMPs would then just map to multiple letters
16:06:29NiacinJdGordon: Ipod 5g dock port.. Can it do I/O..
16:06:31linuxstbbluebrother: I don't think a cache is needed - I think we could make the loading fast enough..
16:07:13amiconnDefinitely
16:07:24JdGordonNiacin: no idea...
16:07:47linuxstbamiconn: But all the WPSs have bitmaps stored with meaningful names - e.g. "codec_mp3.bmp". IIUC, you're proposing the equivalent of just calling the files 1.bmp, 2.bmp etc.
16:08:16NiacinJdGordon: Thanks! you were a lot of help

16:12:33amiconnIf there are currently volume_1.bmp ... volume_5.bmp, these could be combined to volume.mbmp (?)
16:13:23amiconnIt wouldn't be required to combine all bitmaps a wps uses into one single file (but it would be possible for distribution

16:20:01linuxstbI still think just putting them all into a .tar is much more convenient for a wps creator, and I don't think it would be that much slower to load than just concatenating. But I suppose we could test that.
16:20:23amiconnWhy would tar be more convenient
16:20:24amiconn?
16:20:34BagderI agree
16:20:41linuxstbA user does exactly what he/she does now, followed by "tar wps.tar *.bmp"
16:20:47amiconnOn linux it shouldn't matter, but on windows concatenating is easier
16:21:03amiconntar isn't a default windows app/command
16:21:16Bagderbut there are no file names in concatenations
16:21:25Bagderso the WPSes can't work like they do
16:21:34amiconnThey can
16:21:41Bagderif you do them in the same order perhaps
16:21:44linuxstbWe can easily point users to tar programs from the CustomWps wiki page.

16:23:23D_C_how do i sort a folder of music in the order that i want it in explorer ?
16:23:54linuxstbConcatenated .bmps are also very hard to unconcatenate - making it difficult for a user to modify somebody elses WPS.
16:23:57D_C_so that they appear on my iriver.. in that way
16:24:51JdGordonlinuxstb: some people might like that though
16:24:58JdGordonmost wont of course...
16:25:01tucozlinuxstb, good point
16:25:01linuxstbD_C: Rockbox has various sorting options - it's not related to how they appear in explorer.
16:25:10linuxstbJdGordon: That's hardly the Rockbox spirit though...
16:25:12BagderI don't see any benefits with concats
16:25:53D_C_how come i read in the forum that what ever i see in explorer is how i will see it on my iriver :/
16:26:02D_C_how am i suppose to sort a folder
16:26:32BagderD_C_: everything you read aren't necessarily true
16:27:03linuxstbD_C_: Most people sort files alphabetically. So you need to choose a file-naming convention that sorts in the order you want when sorted alphabetically.
16:27:26linuxstbe.g. "NN-Track Name.ext" where NN is the two-digit track number.
16:27:45D_C_so i have to rename every single on of my songs in that folder
16:27:52JdGordonrockbox has other sorting tho.. it doesnt have to go by file name
16:28:12linuxstbD_C_: How are your files named at the moment, and how do you want them to appear?
16:29:03D_C_i want them arranged by track number and their currently just name with the artist name then song name

16:29:55bluebrotherD_C_, I guess that "shown as in explorer" means you get a file view, not a view based on tags or similar like e.g. Apple does
16:30:23bluebrotherbut AFAIK Rockbox doesn't have that "natural sorting" Windows XP can do.
16:31:13bluebrotherbut how does windows achieve this? If there is no track number information in the file how should it sort them by track numbers?

16:32:21Lynx_how about a rockbox scripting language?
16:32:21linuxstbD_C_: Then use tagcache.
16:32:37Lynx_i'm not sure what it would be good for, but everything needs a scripting language
16:32:49D_C_what should i choose? auto update?
16:32:52bluebrotherD_C_, does windows sort files by tag when in "normal" file view?
16:33:08theli_uabluebrother, as i own iPod mini only i have not much interest in something which wouldn't be usable on 138x110 4Bpp LCD :)
16:33:16old45Bagder> does rockbox decode the installed Flac file while playing back or does it just play the compressed file?
16:33:17tucozthe H10 images for the manual sure looks nice
16:33:34linuxstbD_C_: Or if your files are correctly tagged, you can run a tool to bulk-rename them based on the information in the tags.
16:33:35Bagderold45: it decodes, there's no HW to play it
16:33:50D_C_you can arrange it by track number etc it has a option to choose
16:33:55bluebrotherfoobar can batch rename your files
16:34:00D_C_thats too annoying :/
16:34:00old45so it should sound just like the original wave file?
16:34:14Bagderyes
16:34:15bluebrotheror use tagcache and modify tagnavi.config according
16:34:22linuxstbold45: Yes - the same PCM data will be sent to the DAC for a FLAC file as the original WAVE file.

16:34:57D_C_what do i do in tag cache?

18:02:44kudok
18:03:00kudso if it's always been used with windows, it should be fat32 by default, right?
18:03:18linuxstbYes. Windows iTunes will only work with a FAT32 ipod.
18:03:23tucozlinuxstb: wouldnt that just be to write a tool that reads the concat bmp file and outputs a new file as a new header is found.
18:03:40tucozbut the drawback is that the filename is lost
18:04:22linuxstbtucoz: Not something the average user will want to do in order to modify a WPS
18:04:23tucozand that another tool is needed for that, where tar is a single tool for both operations
18:04:43tucozyes i know. but it isn´t hard to write such a tool
18:04:51 Quit apo` (Remote closed the connection)
18:05:11linuxstbOf course not - but it's yet another hoop for users to jump through.
18:05:46tucozi was convinced that concatenated bmps is the best option, until you raised the extract issue. :)
18:05:52linuxstbAnd in effect we're creating a proprietory bitmap format.
18:06:16tucozyes, i am in the tar camp now
18:07:34amiconnlinuxstb: Each bmp header tells the original file length of the individual bmp. A simple app / perl script / vbscript should be able to separate concatenated bmps
18:10:37tucozisn´t that going for a less KISS option than using an established format (which could be fast as long as the files are read in consecutive order)

20:01:28learGah. Manual says this: "In case the loop can be proved to be ?nite, GCC will also remove the loop itself."
20:01:33StroggSo.. I was wondering.. Is there any work underway to support Speex?
20:05:01amiconnlear: http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.1.1/gcc/Non_002dbugs.html#Non_002dbugs "10.10 Certain Changes We Don't Want to Make": # Deleting empty loops.
20:05:12learYes, that section.
20:07:43amiconnHmm, they changed it from gcc 3.x to 4.x ...
20:08:26amiconnBadness...
20:09:06amiconnHow can one ensure a delay loop staying in with current gcc behaviour??
20:09:41learWonder that myself... Btw, 4.0.3 doesn't do this, only 4.1.x.
20:10:11amiconnWell, what will always work is implementing the delay in asm
20:10:22amiconnweird...
20:10:43learWell, there is one way, but it isn't good... Don't use "-O", but use all desired optimizations except -ftree-fre.
20:10:45amiconnUsually making something faster calls for asm, in this case it's the other way round

20:12:48amiconnlear: Hmm, wouldn't making the delay loop's loop count volatile work?
20:12:52learHm.. Might be wrong about that option...
20:12:57learI'll try.
20:13:38learSeems to work... I'll try a little more.
20:14:18amiconnTry with -O3
20:14:52amiconnI hope it doesn't cause the variable to be stored in memory
20:15:05amiconnThat would make the loop slower than intended
20:17:05learOn stack, so it shouldn't be that bad?
20:17:29amiconnstill
20:17:30learDepending on target, though...
20:17:55amiconnRead/increment/write/loop is certainly slower than increment/loop
20:18:12amiconnStack isn't always iram
20:18:33learLoop still there with -O3 though.
20:18:58*amiconn wonders whether gcc accepts 'register volatile'
20:19:47learAccepts it, but ignores it.
20:20:00amiconnwhich part?
20:20:23learit accepts register volatile, but ignores the register bit.

20:59:09learAh, "-fno-tree-loop-optimize" seems to do the trick. Should perhaps be enabled for firmware stuff if gcc 4.1.x is used...
21:00
21:01:46amiconnHmm. Sounds sub-optimal as well
21:03:19amiconnIt would cause this kind of optimisation to be disabled for all loops.
21:03:20 Join webguest11 [0] (i=c3ec4b1b@gateway/web/cgi-irc/labb.contactor.se/session)
21:04:46amiconnI think we should switch to using asm delay loops instead
21:05:10learProblem is finding them all...
21:05:13amiconnDelay loops are limited to driver code, and driver code is target specific
21:05:59learSeems a DELAY macro is quite commonly used...
21:06:15webguest11How about inserting an empty inline 'asm volatile' statement to the loop?
21:07:12amiconnThe H1x0 adc driver has some optimisation potential since it's bit-banging like a number of i2c drivers, and it's called every tick for button reading
21:07:21 Join Rudy4Pez [0] (n=A@71-34-66-241.ptld.qwest.net)
21:07:46amiconnThe gain will be less than with e.g. the H300 pcf i2c driver, since the transfers are shorter

21:15:23learWell, with that option, a gcc 4.1.1 build works on my h140.
21:16:37dan_awebguest11: Yes - see, for example, firmware/thread.c
21:17:15webguest11Ok, with my gcc 'asm volatile ("");' in a loop prevents it from being optimized away but does not seem to affect the code in any other way. It might be used for empty delay loops.

23:12:52bluebrotherincluding disk spinup ...
23:13:18bluebrotherbut the good news is that with a simple lookup table it is mostly the same as tarred file.
23:13:30bluebrotherI fear my disk breaking down :(
23:13:54amiconnbluebrother: Might easily take longer depending on disk fragmentation
23:14:13amiconn...with the exception of flash based players

23:14:30bluebrotheramiconn, I guess this is caused by fragmentation. I remember I had faster load times for iCatcher before.
23:14:34tucozok. good. that was my feeling as well
23:14:39dionoeahas anyone ever heard back from the guy claming to have ported zlib and libpng to rockbox ?
23:14:49amiconnI observed times in excess of 30 seconds

23:16:19bluebrotherindeed.

23:16:56amiconnah
23:16:57tucozand dircache and so on

23:17:52tucozi don't think so. I think only the firmware is flashed
23:18:13bluebrotherI need a second iriver ;-)
23:18:53tucozI am looking for a second player myself, and the sansa looks nice. especially in terms of price
23:19:29bluebrotheroh, dircache was turned of during my measurements.
23:19:45preglowamiconn: what about the memset16 function?
23:20:08amiconnIt didn't work correctly last time you tried it, correct?

23:20:19preglowit seemed to work correctly

23:22:32preglowdoesn't matter if memset16 doesn't return the address
23:22:39amiconnNo, it doesn't
23:22:43preglowso i dropped that, saving one instrcution :)
23:22:51amiconnwow ;)
23:23:30bluebrotherwith dircache enabled the exploded theme is quite a bit faster.
23:24:20bluebrothertoo bad, I hoped to get a bigger boost.
23:25:04tucozbluebrother: it would be interesting to see if loading the images from the tar file in sequence would be faster than loading single files.
23:26:38tucozas tar is not really a random access format (like linuxstb mentioned earlier today)

23:27:34bluebrothertucoz, sure, I'm also interested in that. But this requires more work which I need to do first ;-)
23:27:57bluebrotherBut if time permits I will try this.
23:28:02tucozcool
23:28:46bluebrothercoding rockbox can be pretty much fun. The only problem is I barely know the code and it is a lot of ...
23:29:04webguest39Hi everyone. just a quick question. Is there an offline tool to create the ID3 database for rockbox (similar to EasyH10)? If not, do you think it would be simple to do (using logic code from EasyH10 and the rockbox source)?
23:29:47Bagderwebguest39: no there's no such tool
23:29:54Bagderonly Rockbox itself
23:29:59dionoeawasn't someone planing to write one ?
23:30:07dionoealike 1 or 2 weeks ago i think
23:30:10Bagderhardeep even had it working
23:30:13Bagderhe said
23:31:04webguest39ok... well it just takes forever on the machine itself and could be done much faster using offline... (and then be updated online)... seeing as EasyH10 already does have all the code for scanning and GUI and supports multiple platforms I was wondering if it might not be quite simple to plug-in the actual Rockbox DB code...
23:31:19webguest39oh...so is this something he checked into the CVS?
23:31:26webguest39or is this an external project?
23:31:48amiconnpreglow: Hmm, did I give you a modified version of my test_mem plugin?
23:32:00Bagderwebguest39: I said no because it isn't in CVS or anywhere to get
23:32:17tucozwebguest39: rockbox uses a different database format, so the EasyH10 couldn't be used for this (unless someone adds the functionality to that)
23:32:19Bagderbut sure, it could be made
23:32:29preglowamiconn: don't know
23:32:55webguest39well i know the DB format is different.. but there is that code for it in the rockbox code... just need to mix and match... and curse etc. to make it work
23:33:04tucozwebguest39: sorry, you said that yourself. didn't read the entire line :)
23:33:05amiconnBecause, my standard version doesn't have code to test memset16... or maybe I lost that modified version when I had to reinstall cygwin
23:33:40amiconnAh, no
23:33:46*amiconn found what's up

23:33:48webguest39yeah... ok... thanks... might have a look at that sometime soon... just didn't want to reinvent the wheel... :-)
23:34:02amiconnIt's been a long time since I last used this thing.... :/
23:34:58tucozwebguest39: but i think a standalone tool for this would be the best, as this could be used for all targets (not just the h10)

23:35:22dionoeabut as some were saying the other day, it has to take the target's endianess into account
23:36:00webguest39yeah exactly... well i was just referring to easyh10 because that is the only tool i know of that does all that scanning offline... but seeing as it is a sourceforge project the code is available to be modified...
23:36:22 Quit TeaSea (Remote closed the connection)
23:36:34Bagderwe have a perl script that does the same job
23:36:35tucozi was thinking of something like: tagcache -h1x0 /mnt/sdb1
23:36:42Bagderjust not using the correct db format
23:36:52Bagderhardeep said he adjusted that
23:37:46dionoeathe tool could even automatically guess the target by seeing what rockbox firmware file is available in the root directory
23:37:47amiconnlinuxstb: Wanna try sudoku with more saturated colours? Imho it does look better than the first version, at least on H300
23:37:57tucozdionoea: true
23:38:10dionoeathat wouldn't work with flashed targets though ...
23:38:16Bagderand when we have this talk, we will soon come to the idea that we should have a file in .rockbox describing the target
23:38:18tucoztrue :)
23:38:30Bagder... with endian info and version number and...

23:50:07deeoi think thats just an mp4 without video
23:50:15amiconnlinuxstb: Btw, something is probably wrong with the sudoku generator. It just ran for 2 minutes on X5 without a result, then I shut down. Looked like an endless loop, buttons and backlight were still working
