| 00:19:55 | Soap | good evening |
| 00:20:19 | Stas_ | I just wanted to say that rockbox rocks. |
| 00:20:29 | Stas_ | Er, no pun intended :) |
| 00:20:34 | vbsocverdude94 | lol, got that right, I just got it today |
| 00:20:58 | vbsocverdude94 | are there any other plug-ins you can download? |
| 00:21:41 | Stas_ | Not a clue.. |
| 00:21:45 | Stas_ | I got it yesterday ;p |
| 00:22:01 | Stas_ | But I already found the best plugin: chess! |
| 00:22:06 | Soap | What drew you to RockBox? |
| 00:22:57 | Stas_ | The features, mostly :) |
| 00:23:10 | Stas_ | Plugins, themes, equalizer |
| 00:23:14 | vbsocverdude94 | me? Dunno, I was almost scared to, cuz I tried linux once and it bricked my nano, luckily apple sent me a new one |
| 00:23:34 | vbsocverdude94 | I like the cross fade and plugins |

| 00:24:58 | Stas_ | oh |
| 00:25:00 | Stas_ | I have a question though |
| 00:25:02 | preglow | i find it hard to believe linux bricked your nano |
| 00:25:06 | Stas_ | is there a way to speed up scrolling through long lists? |
| 00:26:01 | | Quit bluebrother ("Leaving") |
| 00:26:43 | jhMikeS | preglow: the problem was in that recording.c patch. the codec loading was handled incorrectly. |
| 00:26:46 | Soap | there is a work-in-progress patch to give the ipods acceleration-sensitive scrolling, much like the stock firmware, but it is not working at this time due to button-code changes. Hopefully it will be fixed, and eventually added to the main body of rockbox in the future. |

| 02:46:02 | Stas_ | I have a question.. |
| 02:46:11 | Stas_ | What if I update my ipod with itunes, while rockbox is installed |
| 02:46:13 | JdGordon | 42 |
| 02:46:16 | Stas_ | will there be any side effects? |
| 02:46:20 | Stas_ | omg |
| 02:46:23 | Stas_ | 42 side effects? |
| 02:46:38 | * | JdGordon got the 42 in late |
| 02:46:51 | JdGordon | dunno about itunes tho |
| 02:46:55 | preglow | JdGordon: oy, in the eq screen, the center frequency is no longer accelerated when play is being pressed |
| 02:47:02 | Stas_ | or, ipodupdater |
| 02:47:23 | JdGordon | preglow: it used to do what? |
| 02:47:25 | preglow | JdGordon: yes |
| 02:47:34 | preglow | that |
| 02:47:34 | JdGordon | yes? |
| 02:47:39 | JdGordon | that! |
| 02:47:41 | Stas_ | How does battery charging work on the ipod? |
| 02:47:45 | preglow | when you pressed play while using the arrow keys, the value would change faster |
| 02:47:57 | Stas_ | I know that normally, it gets powercharged to around 80% |
| 02:47:57 | JdGordon | AH... ok |
| 02:47:59 | preglow | this is on h1x0, that is |
| 02:48:04 | Stas_ | and then slowly brought up to 100% |
| 02:48:07 | preglow | don't know how it worked on other platforms |
| 02:48:22 | Stas_ | Is the algorithm for doing this in the hardware |
| 02:48:30 | Stas_ | or does rockbox control it? |
| 02:48:46 | preglow | Stas_: hardware |
| 02:48:53 | Stas_ | ok : |
| 02:48:55 | Stas_ | ) |
| 02:49:11 | Stas_ | I had some concern, because rockbox clearly has no sense whatsoever of what the battery charge is at ;p |

| 05:01:37 | Adam | got a few questions |
| 05:02:42 | Adam | right now i've got rockbox on my video and all my songs are sorted thru folders not by id3 tags, anyways i want to put apple back on my iPod for battery life reasons and i was wondering how i could have apple and rockbox both without duplicating all my songs |
| 05:02:57 | Adam | but right now i have no apple on it at all |
| 05:03:38 | aliask | The only way you can do this is to put the songs on the iPod using iTunes or whatever so it builds the database, and then use the rockbox Tagcache to browse songs. |
| 05:04:06 | Adam | isn't there a program to rebuild the iPod database |
| 05:04:29 | aliask | Yes, but I think the files need to be in the ipod_control directory |
| 05:04:35 | aliask | And named in a certain way etc. |
| 05:04:48 | aliask | Perhaps this has changed, I don't really know. |
| 05:04:57 | Adam | mmm |
| 05:05:00 | Adam | i need paul the nerd |
| 05:05:36 | Adam | whatever ill just try foobar and see what happens! |

| 05:05:45 | aliask | That's always a good plan. |
| 05:06:09 | BHSPitMonkey | afaik, that'll work, UNTIL you plug it into iTunes |
| 05:06:17 | BHSPitMonkey | at which point it tries to foil your plan |
| 05:06:29 | Adam | not if u turn auto update off |
| 05:06:38 | aliask | Ah, good ol' iTunes. |
| 05:06:39 | BHSPitMonkey | that's just what I've read |

| 07:18:11 | vik | JdGordon: the main problem with using a menu is that I want to show the current time as well. I'm assuming this can't happen within the menu itself... Any thoughts? |
| 07:19:20 | JdGordon | you could have your own menu using the list widget (in the api) |
| 07:19:30 | JdGordon | s/have/hack |
| 07:20:18 | JdGordon | do u really need to show the current time in the menu? |
| 07:21:03 | vik | good point - I was thinking of the menu being the main screen. But would be easier to have main screen showing status, time, and a menu where settings can be changed |

| 07:32:10 | JdGordon | use menu_show if you just want to get the item number, menu_run will call the callback.. or something like that |
| 07:32:25 | vik | yeah |
| 07:32:30 | JdGordon | remember to call rb->menu_exit() or you could cause crashes later on |

| 07:43:36 | Paul_The_Nerd | daurnimator: I don't know of anyone's identified whether there are important hardware differences, yes. |

| 07:44:37 | Paul_The_Nerd | What part of what I said translates to "it works" |
| 07:44:57 | Paul_The_Nerd | I suppose the "yes" that was a typo of "yet" could be read as that, if you take it completely alone. |
| 07:45:30 | Paul_The_Nerd | But I think the rest of the statement, in which I said we don't know if there are significant hardware differences pretty much says it doesn't work, because if it *did* work that would mean all hardware differences are "insignificant" or "don't matter" in the context of whether or not it works. |
| 07:46:14 | daurnimator | well, the way you said it, sounded like there *may* be differences, but rockbox worked anyway |
| 07:48:25 | | Quit MarcoPolo (Remote closed the connection) |
| 07:48:53 | Paul_The_Nerd | Significant differences in this context would clearly be "ones that prevent it from working" so if we don't know if there are any, it basically is the same as saying "I don't know if anyone's tested it" |

| 08:11:48 | Paul_The_Nerd | Are you referring to the option in the debug menu? |

| 08:12:03 | Paul_The_Nerd | On the Archos |
| 08:12:14 | Paul_The_Nerd | Some of the "Recorder V2" were actually FM Recorders with a different lable |

| 08:12:28 | Paul_The_Nerd | Which meant that you could have FM hardware and not know it. |

| 08:24:01 | JdGordon | something like that |
| 08:24:20 | Coldtoast | just compiled the nano build and I notice fade-on-pause seems to be a bit odd |
| 08:24:22 | vik | currently in a loop using rb->button_get_w_tmo; would rb_get_action be better? |
| 08:24:37 | JdGordon | depends what else you need your buttons to do |
| 08:24:51 | JdGordon | Coldtoast: how odd? |
| 08:25:08 | Coldtoast | when I pause/unpause, it seems to fade a bit slight pause then complete the fade |
| 08:25:21 | Coldtoast | liek it's doing it in 2 phases |
| 08:25:37 | vik | JdGordon: how do they differ? |
| 08:25:50 | Coldtoast | the only patches I use are bmp_resize and album_art so I'm not touching anythign else |
| 08:26:22 | JdGordon | vik: the aciton stuff is a complete replacement... so if you cant check for BUTTON_LEFT and ACTION_STD_MENU (for exmaple) |
| 08:26:38 | JdGordon | Coldtoast: has this just started happening? |
| 08:26:49 | JdGordon | i know there was some work in the playback code which may have affected this |
| 08:27:18 | Coldtoast | JdGordon: : in the past few days actually |
| 08:27:27 | Coldtoast | maybe for the past 4 days? |
| 08:27:36 | JdGordon | ok, file a bug report on FS |
| 08:27:36 | Coldtoast | just got a chance to get online tho |
| 08:27:50 | Paul_The_Nerd | Try it without the patches before filing the report. |
| 08:29:01 | Coldtoast | doing that now |
| 08:29:04 | JdGordon | Coldtoast: actually.. if your patient, before filing the report.. could you try it progressivly rolling back each change to playback.c in the last few days untill it goes back to normal? that will make fixing it much easier |
| 08:29:25 | Coldtoast | ok |
| 08:30:53 | JdGordon | although.. just looking at the changes to that file.. that might be difficult.... the schedualr commit will make it pretty painful |
| 08:32:42 | Coldtoast | ok. it's definitely not the patches |
| 08:33:13 | Coldtoast | it fades to very quiet then sits there for possibly about 1 sec then completes the fade |
| 08:33:56 | Coldtoast | crossfading works prefectly fine, it's just fade on pause/stop |
| 08:34:30 | JdGordon | it was one of the last 3 changes to playback.c |
| 08:34:54 | JdGordon | http://www.rockbox.org/viewcvs.cgi/apps/playback.c |
| 08:35:08 | JdGordon | the first 2 should be safe to roll back... the 3rd wont be tho |
| 08:35:20 | JdGordon | if you can try them it will make it easier to find the bug |

| 09:31:13 | * | amiconn still things that using the lang strings for the settings isn't a good idea |
| 09:31:23 | amiconn | *thinks even |
| 09:31:25 | JdGordon | Bagder: what i could do is change the config extension to .conf and make a rock as a viewer for .cfg which can write out the new .conf file.. that could possibly be done fairly easily |

| 09:31:56 | petur | (/)me too |
| 09:32:18 | JdGordon | why? |
| 09:32:32 | Bagder | because changing the language is not considered lethal |
| 09:32:40 | Bagder | which it will be now when it breaks configs |
| 09:32:47 | JdGordon | and how often is the english changed? |
| 09:32:54 | Bagder | it doesn't matter to me |
| 09:33:10 | petur | a dependancy that should not be |
| 09:33:29 | Bagder | and I don't see any gain in having it |
| 09:33:56 | JdGordon | farily big size gain in not storing a text sting with every setting |
| 09:34:38 | JdGordon | faster saving code also, because it doesnt have to tokenise the setting values string |

| 09:44:21 | Bagder | the file format does in no way impose that |
| 09:44:55 | Bagder | so that new approach of your could still be used |
| 09:45:03 | Bagder | just that the strings wouldn't be fetched from the language system |

| 09:45:30 | O112358 | I'm really confused |
| 09:46:10 | JdGordon | ok, but to add the setting name and values like they are now is an extra 8 bytes (2 char* 's) and then the 2 strings... multiply that by the number of settings (170ish for h300) and it stacks up |
| 09:46:12 | JdGordon | brb fone |
| 09:46:20 | JdGordon | nope, too slow |
| 09:46:44 | JdGordon | if your all really dead set against it then ill drop the subject |
| 09:46:57 | amiconn | JdGordon: The comma search has nothing to do with what strings you use. It would be possible to get rid of the comma search with dedicated settings strings as well. |
| 09:47:13 | amiconn | However, the comma search was there to save space, esp. on SH1 |
| 09:47:37 | JdGordon | and adding the setting strings would use up space which isnt really needed |
| 09:47:38 | hcs | ok, my little codec guide is up |
| 09:47:57 | JdGordon | the space iss needed.. the string isnt |
| 09:47:58 | Bagder | JdGordon: according to you, not according to me |
| 09:48:04 | vik | my plugin needs to call a function from screens.c - how can I link to it? |

| 10:52:10 | theli_ua | i wonder is there any way to get button name (string) from something like BUTTON_PLAY ? |
| 10:52:50 | | Part webguest58 |
| 10:52:53 | hcs | ah, apparently a gcc bug, fixed by putting spaces around the minus sign |
| 10:55:14 | linuxstb | theli_ua: No |
| 10:55:40 | theli_ua | that was what i thiugh :( .... unfortunately ... this feature would be usable |
| 10:56:21 | linuxstb | You could add a function to do that to the plugin lib - it could be useful for all the plugins that allow the user to remap the keys (I think Rockboy and Doom do it). |
| 10:57:06 | theli_ua | yes ... i just started to make zxbox's keymap menu to be more target-friendly .... |
| 10:57:24 | theli_ua | but i wonder what can be the way to implement it ? |
| 10:58:26 | linuxstb | We would probably want the strings themselves to be defined in somewhere like button.h in firmware/ - but we don't want to actually add any extra code or data to core Rockbox for features not used in core Rockbox. Which is why I mentioned the plugin lib. |
| 10:59:21 | theli_ua | so it could just be a big header with defines in plugins/lib .... |
| 11:00 |
| 11:00:28 | linuxstb | Also, be aware that something like "BUTTON_SELECT" can have different names on different players - e.g. it's labelled "NAVI" for the H1x0 and H3x0 targets. I'm not sure what we should call it on the ipods - I think Apple call it "Action". |
| 11:01:14 | theli_ua | yes.. thats what i meant ... a lot target-specific defines ... not very good |
| 11:01:36 | hcs | it is called "select" on iPod, see http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651 |
| 11:04:05 | linuxstb | They're not consistent though - it's called "the Center button" here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304322 |
| 11:04:26 | linuxstb | And I'm sure I've seen it refered to as "Action"... |
| 11:04:28 | hcs | doh |
| 11:05:09 | Paul_The_Nerd | I like "select" for it though |
| 11:05:17 | hcs | therefore the only fair way to name it is to make up something else |
| 11:05:24 | Paul_The_Nerd | "Invoke"! |
| 11:05:30 | * | Paul_The_Nerd likes the word "invoke" |
| 11:05:55 | * | hcs concurs |
| 11:06:01 | linuxstb | "center button" is the least ambiguous, but then we need US and British English versions... |

| 11:09:45 | aliask | Someone's going to have to explain this to me... |

| 11:11:22 | linuxstb | There are "snapshots" which are just a dump of the RAM and CPU registers from a running game. Or there are images of the cassette tape the game was originally distributed on. |
| 11:12:25 | theli_ua | i'ts just that it has a custom loader .... zxbox loads first block and when gets to turbo data of custom loader it stops playing tape.. you can press "play tape" and wait for it to load |
| 11:12:50 | theli_ua | i know it is not very convenient .... but that is the only solution for such big games for now |
| 11:13:23 | theli_ua | or another solution is to load this tape to the end and dump snapshot :) |
| 11:13:43 | aliask | But it freezes while loading - at 34-35% |

| 11:56:49 | thegeek | they can run in both modes |
| 11:56:53 | linuxstb | tucoz: From reading Sansa's website, I'm guessing the answer is no - they don't mention drag-and-drop capability, and the system requirements list XP and WMP 10+ |
| 11:57:03 | thegeek | just read some reviews of it |
| 11:57:26 | Paul_The_Nerd | tucoz: If you put the Sansa e200 into MSC mode, you can drag and drop, but it takes a LONG time for it to rebuild its database after. |

| 12:51:18 | theli_ua | linuxstb, this would definitly boost at least video |
| 12:52:17 | linuxstb | I would guess that the video rendering is what is taking up the most CPU time. You could test that by disabling the screen updates and seeing what FPS you get. |

| 14:01:03 | amiconn | (1) It uses the user timer (why, btw?? The timing is in the range of seconds to days. Using the timer here is a big waste). Using the user timer interferes e.g. with backlight fading on the H1x0 |
| 14:01:43 | preglow | definitely bad |
| 14:01:46 | webguest22 | Does such timer make sense on H1xx? There is no RTC. |
| 14:01:48 | preglow | and should be fixed asap |
| 14:02:08 | amiconn | (2) It accesses the LCD from within the ISR. Badness! There is no guarantee the main thread wasn't half-way through an LCD update when the ISR kicks in |
| 14:02:11 | webguest22 | How could it be set to three days on H1xx? |
| 14:02:30 | LinusN | webguest22: well, the player has to be on for 3 days |

| 14:13:31 | lini | :) |
| 14:13:33 | preglow | you say yourself it wasn't tested well |
| 14:13:34 | pondlife | I think it's a one line fix |
| 14:13:34 | jhMikeS | What's wrong with it? I tested and it was operating just fine. |
| 14:14:01 | obo | lini: you're welcome - now all I/we need to do is nag! |
| 14:14:09 | pondlife | When a playlist ends naturally, voice thread calls swap_codec but no audio codec is around to ever swap back |
| 14:14:34 | pondlife | There should not ba any calls made to swap_codec unless we know the "other" codec is alive |
| 14:14:38 | jhMikeS | pondlife: it seems other problems were working the other way |
| 14:14:46 | jhMikeS | there aren't |
| 14:15:01 | pondlife | What was the recording impact? |
| 14:15:13 | pondlife | We need to get both working together |
| 14:15:15 | jhMikeS | Those messages aren't sent unless the voice codec is current |
| 14:15:18 | pondlife | Of course ;-) |
| 14:15:24 | | Join _FireFly_ [0] (n=FireFly@p54A46923.dip.t-dialin.net) |
| 14:15:30 | pondlife | Which messages? |
| 14:15:31 | jhMikeS | The recording couldn't load the codec |
| 14:15:48 | lini | obo: actually i made the same updates to my source yesterday, but there was a slight problem when i tested on my ipod |
| 14:16:03 | jhMikeS | Q_ENCODER_RECORD, Q_AUDIO_PLAY to the voice thread |
| 14:16:03 | lini | some of the menus were very laggy |
| 14:16:06 | pondlife | The problem is that the message queue and dequeue can happen over the unloading of the audio codec |
| 14:16:23 | obo | lini: ah, I think that might be down to the new scheduler system itself |
| 14:16:25 | pondlife | It will be Q_AUDIO_PLAY that is the problem |
| 14:16:37 | pondlife | I can look into it later in the week. |
| 14:16:41 | lini | i suppose it's a problem with some other patch that i apply (e.g. piezo) |
| 14:16:42 | obo | lini: is it the same for you in vanilla CVS? |
| 14:16:47 | jhMikeS | It's no longer sent if current_codec != CODEC_IDX_VOICE |
| 14:16:52 | pondlife | I'm more upset with Slasheri for commiting before it was tested fully ;0) |
| 14:16:59 | lini | no, vanilla CVS is fine (i am using it atm) |
| 14:17:08 | pondlife | I feel a bit defalted by the whole experience |
| 14:17:12 | pondlife | deflated |
| 14:17:13 | obo | lini: I haven't updated the piezo patch - it shouldn't be working at the moment |
| 14:17:19 | jhMikeS | it doesn't need to be...otherwise voice can grab the mutex again in the meantime |
| 14:17:35 | lini | obo: I modified it enough to work |
| 14:17:41 | | Quit Febs (Connection timed out) |
| 14:17:46 | obo | lini: fair enough :) |
| 14:18:09 | lini | i will try a CVS + unplug only build tonight |
| 14:18:25 | obo | lini: did you set the thread to use PRIORITY_BACKGROUND, or something a bit higher? |
| 14:18:32 | jhMikeS | leading to deadlock...i think all the other stuff in there is ok afaik and should work alright |
| 14:18:36 | lini | I set it to BACKGROUND |
| 14:19:07 | obo | lini: hmm, yes, I'll play tonight |
| 14:19:17 | jhMikeS | pondlife: deflated, why? |
| 14:19:36 | webguest22 | preglow: no, I won't nag, I respect RB devs, they've done very much good for me |
| 14:20:03 | pondlife | Mainly because I thought I was doing the right thing by putting up the patch for testing, and yet it got committed before this process could complete |
| 14:20:08 | pondlife | I'll recover |
| 14:20:11 | pondlife | ;-) |
| 14:20:18 | lini | If all seems fine, I promise to help with the nagging :) |
| 14:20:28 | obo | lini: thanks :) |
| 14:20:33 | pondlife | So the recording failure isn't subtle! |
| 14:20:45 | LinusN | pondlife: you are certainly one of the few who gets his patch committed when you didn't want to :-) |
| 14:20:52 | pondlife | I know!! |
| 14:20:55 | pondlife | Lucky me! |
| 14:21:13 | pondlife | And I now have commit access too... |
| 14:21:26 | jhMikeS | ahh...I beat the tar out of it before committing the minor changes and I didn't have any problems... |
| 14:21:54 | pondlife | No worries. As long as I know what the bug recipes are, I can look into it |
| 14:22:12 | pondlife | I did object a bit to the word "botched" though! |
| 14:22:19 | jhMikeS | but with the playlist thing...swap codec seems a bad call if the codec you're swapping out isn't current. |
| 14:22:28 | pondlife | I had spent 3 weeks reading and re-reading playback.c |
| 14:23:19 | pondlife | IMHO there should be less tests on current_codec and more on x_codec_loaded. Simpler to understand and ought to work just as well. |

| 14:23:45 | jhMikeS | "botched"? I didn't say that did I? I'm sorry then if I did. idr...I don't wanna sound like a snob or anything but I'm sure that I can plenty well ;) |
| 14:23:54 | pondlife | lol |
| 14:24:02 | pondlife | Apology accepted |
| 14:24:18 | pondlife | Anyway, back to Real Life I go... |
| 14:24:21 | jhMikeS | x_codec_loaded tests wouldn't fix deadlocks |
| 14:24:28 | pondlife | Why not? |
| 14:24:54 | | Part obo |
| 14:25:07 | pondlife | That and not calling swap_codec at the wrong time... |
| 14:25:08 | jhMikeS | Man...I don't remember but it was for a reason of timing where the voice codec could grab the mutex when you go to wait for it. |
| 14:25:27 | pondlife | OK, will investigete further |
| 14:26:13 | pondlife | II need to fix the problem where pcmbuf leaves the CPU boosted after playback stops too sometimes. |
| 14:26:19 | pondlife | If voice is in use |
| 14:26:45 | pondlife | That's all for another day though, bye |

| 14:50:51 | jhMikeS | mirak7: the ASM version always did that...see lcd-x5.c for an example |
| 14:51:15 | mirak7 | jhMikes I would be interested by a memcopy that copies blocks of ram. someting like memcpy(dest,source,line_size,nb_lines, offset) |
| 14:51:33 | mirak7 | and the opposite |
| 14:51:49 | mirak7 | maybe going full asm for that is not very usefull |

| 14:55:58 | linuxstb | tucoz: What's the purpose? |
| 14:56:25 | vik | jhMikeS: they should be declared in time.h; does that mean they should go in time.c ? |
| 14:56:32 | tucoz | linuxstb: for the small symbols in the margin identifying a section especially written for the blind readers |
| 14:56:33 | mirak7 | jhMikeS I get better frame rates on low bitrates. I think that using bitrates of 400 is a waste of what mpeg compression offers. A correct bitrate for a 640*480 divx could be 600. a 220*176 screen is 8 times less the surface of a 640*480 screen, so using a bitrate of 400 seems a bit exessive don't you think ? |

| 15:44:17 | jhMikeS | amiconn: does the edge transition speed change with CPU frequency? It was also interesting that flipping data before flipping clock made it A LOT worse btw. |
| 15:44:27 | linuxstb | Regarding flyspray, how about having a "how to report bugs" wiki page, and a highly visible link to it from Flyspray? |

| 15:46:40 | linuxstb | aliask: But at least it would be there... At the moment, there is no guidance at all regarding how to use Flyspray. |
| 15:46:46 | LinusN | vik: it depends on what you optimize |
| 15:46:53 | amiconn | jhMikeS: I don't think the edge transition speed changes with CPU frequency, but of course the number of trnasitions per second changes |
| 15:47:10 | amiconn | Iiirc the asm version flips clock & data at once |
| 15:47:25 | tucoz | linuxstb: good idea. And that should be written in an friendly easy fast readable way :) |
| 15:47:36 | aliask | linuxstb: Ugh, yes sorry. I misread "flyspray" for "forums", for which there is plenty on how to post. |
| 15:48:04 | linuxstb | tucoz: Yes, by one of our highly-skilled and talented manual writers.... |
| 15:48:22 | vik | LinusN: standard library functions; in particular time functions. the glibc code is pretty large. But then I'm used to dealing with _really_ small amounts of memory, so my judgement may not be reliable |
| 15:48:52 | tucoz | linuxstb: yes. I think they should write it as well :) |
| 15:48:52 | LinusN | vik: the archos platforms are very sensitive regarding code size |
| 15:49:39 | jhMikeS | amiconn: yeah...but I changed it to do data then clock as an experiment and results were very bad for EMI |
| 15:49:39 | vik | LinusN: Hmmm... could do it without them, but it would not be as 'nice' |
| 15:50:18 | jhMikeS | are there any funky seeming-not-to-make sense wires in the remote connected to CPU pins? *big speculation* |
| 15:50:22 | vik | Do the archos platforms have RTCs? |
| 15:50:47 | LinusN | vik: yes, some of them |
| 15:50:56 | LinusN | vik: what are you doing? |
| 15:51:14 | vik | LinusN: making an alarm clock. |

| 15:51:35 | vik | LinusN: yep; making it better |
| 15:51:49 | vik | LinusN: and work on other devices |
| 15:51:51 | LinusN | you can include any code you like in the plugin |
| 15:52:02 | amiconn | Archos does have wake-up alarm (out-of-the-box for recorder v2 and fm, and with a smal hardware patch and a special build for recorder v1) |
| 15:52:06 | jhMikeS | LinusN: just wondering if maybe they had something for EMI suppression built in... :\ |
| 15:52:23 | vik | LinusN: yeah, but library functions are, well, 'nicer' |
| 15:52:39 | LinusN | vik: of course |
| 15:52:53 | Bagder | there's a pluginlib too for plugin-only purposes |
| 15:53:07 | LinusN | btw, i'm thinking of adding an alarm function API in the core |
| 15:53:59 | LinusN | which broadcasts SYS_ALARM when the timer expires |
| 15:54:00 | vik | LinusN: interesting. |
| 15:54:02 | jhMikeS | LinusN: could be useful for recording |
| 15:54:16 | LinusN | then we could have a cron thread that retriggers it |

| 15:54:57 | jhMikeS | LinusN: hmmm...can't set up private alarm callbacks/queues? |
| 15:55:02 | JdGordon | i couldnt find it in the code |
| 15:55:20 | LinusN | jhMikeS: i haven't thought about it |

| 15:57:53 | amiconn | JdGordon: rombox.ucl can take whatever is left in the archos flash ROM. |
| 15:58:14 | amiconn | With the current flash loader and bootbox, it's 232KB for players and 228KB for all other targets |
| 15:58:25 | JdGordon | thanks |

| 15:59:05 | JdGordon | damn, so we must be over by a fair bit currently |
| 15:59:11 | amiconn | yes |
| 15:59:22 | | Quit vik ("Leaving") |

| 16:01:03 | mirak7 | jhMikeS about memcopy, it could maybe help to have the destination plane for working Y, U or V, then copy to sdram once the work is done. problem is we will short on ram maybe ... 220*176 octets or words that's a lot |
| 16:01:12 | LinusN | time to start cutting out features for the archos platforms then |
| 16:01:22 | amiconn | LinusN: Why? |
| 16:01:38 | JdGordon | or cut features out of rombox... |
| 16:01:48 | LinusN | well, we have 3 choices: |
| 16:01:58 | | Join RaeNye [0] (i=c7cb43c9@gateway/web/cgi-irc/labb.contactor.se/session) |
| 16:02:05 | RaeNye | aloha |
| 16:02:06 | amiconn | JdGordon: That would defeat the purpose of rombox |
| 16:02:08 | LinusN | 1) Stop developing new features, since the archos devices are "full" |
| 16:02:22 | | Quit tvelocity (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer)) |
| 16:02:29 | LinusN | 2) Let the archos devices have a subset of features |
| 16:02:38 | LinusN | 3) Optimize, optimize, optimize |
| 16:02:41 | JdGordon | arrrr!! thar be a bad idea yee land lubber.. |
| 16:02:42 | jhMikeS | hmmm...I count 7/10 pins accounted for...and you need GND and V+...so that leaves something else? |
| 16:02:49 | * | Bagder votes 2 + 3 |
| 16:02:54 | JdGordon | sorry had to be the first.. it being sep 19th here already :p |
| 16:03:24 | JdGordon | can rombox rolo to a regular rockbox from the disk? |
| 16:03:25 | amiconn | There's one feature that can be cut for fm/v2 because it's not possible w/o hardware mod anyway - the archos remote control reading |
| 16:03:46 | | Join tvelocity [0] (n=tony@ipa96.4.tellas.gr) |
| 16:03:58 | amiconn | Someone needs to confirm that I don't remember that wrong |
| 16:04:14 | amiconn | (the remote pin in the headphone connector not being available on fm/v2) |
| 16:04:16 | Bagder | but really option 3 is only a matter of time until its not possible anymore anyway, and then there's only 1 and 2 left |
| 16:04:23 | LinusN | amiconn: i think you're right |
| 16:04:34 | amiconn | I don't have such a device myself |
| 16:05:13 | Bagder | the archoses are a dying breed |
| 16:05:24 | amiconn | Bagder: I see quite a few possibilities for (3) |
| 16:05:32 | | Join pamacii [0] (i=cptjack@dhcp03171.mid-resnet.unc.edu) |
| 16:05:33 | JdGordon | if rombox can load a full rockbox from disk, then maybe dropping some less used stuff would fix it, they could always rolo tockbox from the disk if its needed |
| 16:05:45 | LinusN | jhMikeS: button a/d, play button, vcc, gnd, lcd cs, remote sense, lcd clk, lcd data, lcd sel, lcd backlight |
| 16:05:46 | Bagder | amiconn: since we'll continue to add features, (3) is a lost race |
| 16:05:55 | amiconn | Not necessarily |
| 16:06:22 | amiconn | You see that there's quite some potential e.g. in JdGordon's settings rework |
| 16:06:31 | amiconn | Then there is langv2 .... |
| 16:07:01 | JdGordon | not if you cut off its leg and force me to use english for the setting names :D (/me runs away) |
| 16:07:13 | amiconn | And I suspect quite some dead code has creeped in since my last cleanup |
| 16:07:15 | LinusN | amiconn: still, if we continue adding features, we will exhaust (3) sooner or later |
| 16:07:17 | * | Bagder cuts lef |
| 16:07:19 | Bagder | leg |
| 16:07:21 | jhMikeS | oh right...something must go to the pcf50606 |
| 16:08:01 | Bagder | and clearly, there aren't that many developers keeping the Archos builds top-notch |
| 16:08:12 | RaeNye | linusn,jhmikes: what are you counting? |
| 16:08:14 | LinusN | but i agree that we should take a good look at the archos platforms to cut some fat |
| 16:08:24 | LinusN | RaeNye: the pins in the remote connector |
| 16:08:37 | JdGordon | another option is moving the wps code to a rock, with only a very minimul wps drawer in the core, but that breaks TSR rocks |
| 16:08:49 | RaeNye | brb |
| 16:08:49 | amiconn | Cutting junk would help all builds, even if we aren't that short on memory there |
| 16:09:01 | LinusN | JdGordon: don't go there |
| 16:09:06 | amiconn | Even that's not entirely true, thinking about the iFP... |
| 16:09:07 | Bagder | cutting junk is good |
| 16:09:10 | * | JdGordon dont's |
| 16:09:35 | LinusN | the bookmark code can be trimmed, for instance |
| 16:10:15 | jhMikeS | I was wondering if this sort of the thing should be in the *config*.h file (rather than elsewhere) for defining recording sr caps: #define REC_SAMPR_CAPS (SAMPR_CAP_88200 | SAMPR_CAP_44100 | SAMPR_CAP_22050 | SAMPR_CAP_11025) |
| 16:10:16 | JdGordon | bookmarks should be scrapped and replaced with playlist code which takes care of it and .cue files (imo) |
| 16:11:20 | LinusN | .cue files for bookmarks? |
| 16:11:36 | JdGordon | no, but with change playlist code they would be handled the same way |
| 16:11:55 | JdGordon | both are just a maerker into another audio file |
| 16:12:00 | preglow | hear, hear |
| 16:12:29 | LinusN | iirc, bookmarks can be are markers in a directory/playlist, can't it? |
| 16:12:36 | LinusN | s/are// |
| 16:12:56 | JdGordon | i dunno, havnt actually looked how they are handled... |
| 16:13:42 | Bagder | haha |
| 16:13:49 | Bagder | you want to scrap it before knowing what it does? |
| 16:13:59 | JdGordon | sounds logical doesnt it? |
| 16:14:28 | | Quit tvelocity (Remote closed the connection) |
| 16:14:31 | jhMikeS | heh...noone cares what I do? cool... :) |
| 16:14:44 | Bagder | .cue files would take a major approach and I don't see that happening anytime soon |

| 16:15:11 | Iltsu | Hey |
| 16:15:16 | JdGordon | from using it, i just assume it jumps into a track, not a directory/playlist.. if im wrong then ill retract the statement... |
| 16:17:44 | amiconn | jhMikeS: For the remote, you have: GND, Vcc for all electronics; /CS, DATA, RS, CLK for the LCD; the button chain to ADC, and at least one more button connected to GPIO |
| 16:20:25 | jhMikeS | amiconn: yes...LinusN gave me the list of ten...I forgot about the ADC line :P |
| 16:24:26 | markun | Bagder: we found a JTAG connector on the Gigabeat PCB. Not that useful now, but maybe if we want to try flashing some day |
| 16:24:41 | Bagder | nice |
| 16:24:58 | markun | It also has the TxD0 and RxD0 which are nice for a Linux port to connect to a terminal(emulator) |
| 16:25:32 | Bagder | a serial port is also nice for debugging |
| 16:25:53 | * | Bagder recalls one of the irivers having code left for spitting out debug data on its serial |
| 16:26:17 | LinusN | oh yes, that was a dream when disassembling |
| 16:26:37 | markun | There is code in the gigabeat bootloader to receive a file with x-modem over serial and flash it |
| 16:26:51 | Bagder | good old xmodem |
| 16:26:52 | LinusN | that, and that iriver h100 has a very generous silkscreen mask on the pcb |
| 16:27:50 | markun | Someone joined our gigabeat team. bought 3 broken gigabeats on ebay (2 are working again now) and desoldered some chips. He also found the JTAG connector. |
| 16:28:08 | Bagder | sounds like a useful team member! |
| 16:28:12 | markun | Yes, very |
| 16:29:35 | markun | btw, when I typed RxD0 in our PortPins page it became a wiki link. How can I prevent that? (calling it RXD0 fixed it) |
| 16:29:46 | LinusN | <nop>WikiName |
| 16:29:59 | markun | ok |

| 16:58:10 | Bagder | I say remove |
| 16:58:43 | amiconn | Leaving as-is isn't an option imho. It tends to get in the way when cleaning up things (e.g. moving stuff to target tree) |

| 19:33:53 | amiconn | RaeNye: For logf, we should fix the configure script. For debug builds, we can either use the C version, or fix the asm to leave one more spare a register |
| 19:34:17 | RaeNye | (at least, using a #define instead of the arbitrary constant 42) |

| 21:16:39 | TeaSea | petur: Yes but to be honest, unless battery life improves or HD efficiency shoots up, I think my next player will be a flash one. |
| 21:16:59 | TeaSea | My X5's battery life is dire. |
| 21:17:03 | TeaSea | And i've only had it a year. |
| 21:17:37 | mirak | it's bullshit anyway, you don't need 50 gigas just for music on a dap |
| 21:17:47 | linuxstb | You don't? |
| 21:17:52 | petur | why not? |
| 21:18:03 | mirak | since the invention of drag and drop and usb2 |
| 21:18:19 | petur | I take all my music with me, and would like to take all my pictures with me too |
| 21:18:25 | Xerion | meh just picking the albums takes too much time :p |
| 21:19:11 | * | amiconn actually uses the dap for storing music, without keeping it on the pc |
| 21:19:23 | Genre9mp3 | Not to mention lossless music... |
| 21:19:40 | mirak | all the music I have will never fit on a dap anyway, so I better get used to select music |
| 21:19:42 | * | petur has backups |
| 21:19:45 | amiconn | Of course I have multiple full copies |
| 21:19:48 | | Quit Rondom (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)) |
| 21:20:07 | amiconn | It's highly unlikely that all daps will fail at the same time |
| 21:20:41 | mirak | wanting to have all is music on the dap is symptome of collectionners (don't know how it is translatedà |
| 21:20:42 | mirak | ) |
| 21:20:46 | petur | my pc serves the music files for my home music system so I have them there too |
| 21:21:04 | mirak | it's like people who burn everything, but will never watch a quarter of it |
| 21:21:08 | TeaSea | petur: Yes. |
| 21:21:11 | TeaSea | mirak: Heh. |
| 21:21:17 | petur | no mirak, freedom of choice |
| 21:21:23 | TeaSea | I watch everything I download before I burn it. |
| 21:21:25 | Slasheri | i have all music and files on server that i backup to lacie bigdisk 600GB with rdiff-backup over network |
| 21:21:28 | Xerion | as long as there are desktop HD's bigger than the DAP hd's all my music will never fit lol |
| 21:21:43 | petur | I listen to the music I want at that moment, and can select any song I have |
| 21:21:43 | amiconn | mirak: I disagree. I only keep music I like. Other music gets deleted |
| 21:21:45 | Xerion | nah not even that |
| 21:21:45 | TeaSea | petur: I'm rarely away from my PC for more than a day, so I think a 4GB player would suffice for me. |
| 21:21:58 | hardeep | Genre9mp3: are all the bmp's in the iCatcher/UniCatcher still needed or can some be removed? |
| 21:22:06 | Xerion | can have multiple hd's in pc so it will never fit :D |
| 21:22:19 | amiconn | Maybe that's why my whole music collection still fits on a 20GB dap (the majority of which is lame −−preset standard encoded) |
| 21:22:21 | mirak | amiconn: yes but on all the music you have on your dap you will only a listen a quarter |
| 21:22:22 | * | petur gets out more :p |
| 21:22:27 | Slasheri | in fact now with the automatic song rating in rockbox it would be easy to remove songs you don't like if the hd is getting full |
| 21:22:42 | amiconn | Oh noes |
| 21:22:56 | Genre9mp3 | hardeep: The file I sent to you has all the new bmps, don't erase the previous ones :) |
| 21:23:05 | Xerion | meh 4 GB would really be too little to fit music for all moods i might develop during the day |
| 21:23:15 | markun | Genre9mp3: you were looking for me? |
| 21:23:17 | Xerion | can't predict how i'll feel all day |
| 21:23:23 | amiconn | Slasheri: I still don't get the purpose. I mean, I know what music I like and what music I dislike without a rating system |
| 21:23:24 | hardeep | Genre9mp3: okay, I haven't deleted anything :) |
| 21:23:25 | mirak | Xerion: yes, but with 20G that's really a lot |
| 21:23:32 | Genre9mp3 | markun: Yup, then hardeep showed up! :) |
| 21:23:38 | markun | ok :) |
| 21:23:44 | Xerion | i have 40GB now, it does seem enough :p |

| 21:45:42 | Lear | mmmm: see tick_add_task. not many examples afaics, but car adapter mode seems to be one. |
| 21:46:00 | Mmmm | ok, thanks lear :) |
| 21:46:27 | Lear | mmmm: debug audio thread might be a better one... |
| 21:46:46 | lowlight | So, I got inspired during lunch and made a vertical progress bar for the wps... |
| 21:46:49 | lowlight | http://www.geocities.com/m_arigo/rockbox/vert_prog_bar.bmp |
| 21:47:22 | obo | lini: around? |
| 21:47:23 | petur | what about vertical peakmeters? |
| 21:48:46 | amiconn | Mmmm: There is quite a number of tick tasks. Button driver, adc driver (on some targets), ... |
| 21:49:12 | amiconn | Just make sure not to perform lcd updates from a tick task, that's isr context as well |
| 21:49:23 | Mmmm | ok, and they are all called by tick_add_task right? |
| 21:49:31 | lowlight | I don't see why not. Peakmeters are just scroll bars. But they'd be on the left of the screen. |
| 21:49:31 | preglow | hcs: adx? |
| 21:49:36 | amiconn | No, they are added by tick_add_task |
| 21:49:48 | amiconn | ...and called by the timer tick isr |
| 21:49:54 | amiconn | ...HZ times per second |
| 21:49:59 | * | Lear only looked for tick tasks in apps... |
| 21:50:09 | hcs | preglow: a 4-bit ADPCM format used in a whole lot of video games, has looping |
| 21:50:49 | preglow | hcs: well, what's missing? is there a good reason not to post a patch? |
| 21:51:06 | Mmmm | amiconn: ok :) so there is no way to call a tick task fewer times than HZ times per second? |
| 21:51:13 | amiconn | nope |
| 21:51:41 | hcs | preglow: well, it loops infinitely right now (as that's how I like it), I'd like to add a finite number of loops + fade (controllable by a config file), and the metadata reading isn't quite right |

| 21:53:13 | amiconn | I wonder whether it would be better to wait for Linus' general SYS_ALARM implementation |
| 21:53:20 | webguest31 | hey there all, ive some questions about some patches, the first 1: is there a reason why i should not apply http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/5934 ? |
| 21:54:00 | amiconn | Mmmm: More precisely, you could either send a message to a queue, or set a variable that is polled by the main thread |
| 21:54:31 | Mmmm | ahh right, thanks... will linus's SYS_ALARM affect a recording countdown timer? |
| 21:55:00 | amiconn | ...or finally, just don't interact that way but implement the blinking indicator directly in the main thread |
| 21:55:01 | hcs | markun: my web site which hosts them has recently had the bandwidth beaten out of it, you can find some here: http://rotb.mgbr.net/music.htm |
| 21:56:05 | hcs | ah, crashes at the end of non-looped tracks, want to get that taken care of... |
| 21:56:20 | Mmmm | amiconn: the trouble with the blinking icon is that it has to happen no matter what you are doing eg. playing music, listening to radio, browsing folders etc.. |
| 21:56:47 | amiconn | Is it really necessary? |
| 21:56:56 | Mmmm | no..but it would be nice! |
| 21:57:08 | Mmmm | then you could always tell when the timer is finished |
| 21:57:08 | amiconn | I think a recording timer doesn't make sense outside of the recording screen |
| 21:57:33 | webguest31 | i heared about pause on headphone remove, and 64 meg buffer patches. where can i find them?! |
| 21:57:34 | Mmmm | hmmm...maybe |
| 21:57:42 | amiconn | You simply can't switch to recording from anywhere. It needs preparation |
| 21:58:17 | | Quit _FireFly_ ("Leaving") |
| 21:58:36 | amiconn | It should be possible to show an activated timer in the status bar |
| 21:58:50 | amiconn | It doesn't necessarily need to flash |
| 21:59:07 | Mmmm | amiconn: I just thought it may be possible that while waiting for the countdown to complete, you might suddenly decide that you want to do something else and it would be nice if there was some kind of indication. and there is no room in the statusbar :D |
| 21:59:26 | amiconn | Only problem is the recorder status bar, where there is no extra room |
| 21:59:35 | Mmmm | yup! |
| 21:59:36 | amiconn | All other status bars have some room |
| 21:59:52 | amiconn | But you could e.g. invert the time display on rtc targets |
| 21:59:56 | webguest31 | am i asking the wrong way? |
| 22:00 |
| 22:00:17 | Mmmm | amiconn: you're a genious! |
| 22:00:28 | Mmmm | that's a good idea! |
| 22:00:38 | obo | webguest31: on the patch tracker :) |
| 22:00:39 | amiconn | On other targets, the place where the time display would be could display a timer icon |
| 22:00:56 | Mmmm | yeah.. I like it... |
| 22:01:32 | webguest31 | i cant find anything by "headphones" |
| 22:01:45 | obo | patch number 4899 |
| 22:01:45 | amiconn | What happens if you're doing something else and the timer expires? |
| 22:01:55 | amiconn | Like listening music, playing a game plugin etc? |
| 22:02:26 | Mmmm | rtc can alternate |
| 22:02:35 | Mmmm | inverse/non inverse |
| 22:03:01 | amiconn | I don't mean the display only |
| 22:03:20 | Mmmm | you mean some sort of sound warning? |
| 22:03:24 | petur | I feel this countdown timer is not going to be used much.. why bother with it outside the recording screen? |
| 22:03:56 | | Quit Lear ("Chatzilla 0.9.74 [Firefox 1.5.0.7/2006090918]") |
| 22:03:59 | petur | using the rtc alarm + preprogrammed action to perform is much more usefull |
| 22:04:18 | Mmmm | not all targets have an rtc :p |
| 22:04:22 | petur | I know |
| 22:04:33 | petur | mine has :p |
| 22:04:34 | amiconn | I think th etimer should be programmable in terms of date+time on rtc targets, and as countdown on non-rtc targets |
| 22:04:44 | petur | yes |
| 22:05:14 | amiconn | And if the timer has a settable action, it could be useful for other purposes than just recording as well |
| 22:05:41 | amiconn | The settable action probably requires the screen state machine already mentioned several times |
| 22:07:26 | amiconn | With rtc, the alarm should of course also be able to power up the dap, if the hardware permits it |

| 23:16:44 | hcs | I tend to unplug my headphones by accident a lot |
| 23:16:51 | lini | it's a nice way to turn off the ipod without taking it out of the bag |
| 23:16:54 | preglow | i never do that |
| 23:16:57 | Bagder | I don't have an ipod, but I never pull my plugs out |

| 23:18:29 | Bagder | holding a button for 6 seconds? |
| 23:18:42 | lini | well it's less than 6 actually |
| 23:18:59 | lini | but it's hard to find it in the backpack pocket anyway |
| 23:20:37 | dionoea | amiconn: i'm not too found of the touchwheel thing in solitaire |
| 23:20:49 | dionoea | it's a bit too sensitive :) |
| 23:21:17 | amiconn | hmm.... |
| 23:21:35 | * | dionoea should try it out before critisizing |
| 23:23:11 | lini | obo: have you done any work on the piezo driver since the last patch you posted on the tracker? |
| 23:23:31 | amiconn | Bagder: Looks like farsan.haxx.se wasn't updated. We were just lucky that it didn't get a simulator build scheduled |
| 23:23:37 | Bagder | hehe |
| 23:24:14 | obo | lini: not since the last update on the tracker |
| 23:24:23 | amiconn | See ipod color sim in the 20:47 round |
| 23:24:24 | Bagder | I'll send over a team with baseball bats to make him dist-upgrade |

| 23:25:20 | Bagder | I do, now let's find out how I can get sploit his box to give me root... :-P |
| 23:25:36 | Bagder | maybe I should learn to type first... |

| 23:26:06 | lini | obo: i did, but I think there is something wrong or it conflicts with another patch |
| 23:26:25 | obo | what happens? |
| 23:26:26 | lini | i will try a clean cvs build + piezo to see it it works alone |
| 23:26:40 | lini | no sound from the speaker when i set duration |
| 23:27:28 | obo | hmmm, pitch is set to something sane? |
| 23:27:40 | lini | yes, the default |
| 23:28:04 | * | dionoea remembers doing police siren sounds with his piezo |
| 23:28:28 | * | Bagder remembers playing music with his C64's disk drive |
| 23:28:33 | preglow | obo: so you're the piezo driver guy, now that patch i'd be more interested in |
| 23:29:01 | * | dionoea would love that Bagder port his C64 disk drive music player to the ipod piezo |
| 23:29:13 | Bagder | :-) |
| 23:29:15 | obo | preglow: hmmm, okay 1 for 2... but I bet you wouldn't like the audioscrobbler one either :) |
| 23:29:24 | | Quit damaki_ (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)) |
| 23:29:31 | Bagder | brrrrr burrrrr birrrr brrrr |
| 23:29:46 | dionoea | obo: did you see the comment i added at the end of the piezzo patch entry on FS ? (about the waveform thing) |
| 23:29:59 | amiconn | Well, there's a game for the ZX Spectrum that plays music with the built-in speaker (_not_ the optional AY sound chip!), which can only be switched on & off |
| 23:30:14 | dionoea | Bagder: sounds neat :) |
| 23:30:16 | obo | dionoea: yes, I did, but then I didn't touch anything rockbox releated in about 5 weeks... so haven't done anything about it |
| 23:30:26 | preglow | obo: i see no problem with that, i even used audioscrobbler myself up to a point |
| 23:30:27 | amiconn | Kinda 1-bit software DAC - and the music is recognisable! |
| 23:30:32 | dionoea | you can basically use it to emulate volume change |
| 23:31:54 | obo | preglow: piezo is FS #5111 - is that even a sane way of doing things?? I wrote it during the freeze, so didn't want to ask anyone then |
| 23:32:39 | obo | preglow: I'll have to scrape the bit rot off the audioscrobbler patch if it stands a vague chance |

| 23:45:37 | obo | lini: what priority did you give the piezo thread? |
| 23:45:41 | lini | background |
| 23:45:52 | lini | i guess this is too low |
| 23:45:52 | obo | might be worth upping it a bit? |
| 23:46:12 | lini | i'm afraid that this will bring back the skipping audio |
| 23:46:17 | lini | i'll try of course :) |
| 23:46:23 | preglow | it shouldn't |
| 23:46:29 | preglow | the thread should be primarily sleeping |

| 23:47:21 | obo | yeah, that thread doesn't exactly do a lot |
| 23:47:29 | amiconn | Why does the piezo need a separate thread? |
| 23:47:44 | obo | my crude way of making it not block |
| 23:48:02 | obo | if it's a strange way of doing things blame it on my not knowing any better :) |
| 23:48:11 | preglow | amiconn: you're the one who intially told me to put it in its own thread |
| 23:48:22 | preglow | amiconn: the piezo needs to be enabled, then forgotten until it's time to stop it |
| 23:48:32 | amiconn | Yes. |
| 23:48:38 | amiconn | Is it controlled vi agpio? |
| 23:48:38 | preglow | amiconn: the best way to do that is register a tick task that stops it after so and so many ticks |
| 23:48:57 | preglow | amiconn: you just set the freq and it handles itself |
| 23:51:23 | amiconn | How many ticks are needed for a button click? |
| 23:51:36 | amiconn | Maybe it could be handled by the button tick directly? |

| 23:54:23 | preglow | amiconn: i did handle it in the button tick, but you didn't like that... |

| 23:55:26 | * | amiconn is slightly confused |
| 23:55:45 | preglow | amiconn: don't remember why, but i THINK it was because you didn't want it always ticking |
| 23:56:15 | amiconn | Of course it should be optional... |
| 23:56:27 | lini | hmh, same effect with PRIORITY_SYSTEM |
| 23:56:36 | lini | sounds like a geiger counter when i scroll :) |
| 23:56:45 | amiconn | Speaking about the ipod button driver - using the wheel doesn't update last_user_activity |
| 23:57:10 | amiconn | Very annoying when playing sudoku and needing to think a while, only moving around the grid with the wheel... |
| 23:57:10 | obo | lini: maybe it's trying to tell you something... :) |
| 23:58:07 | lini | hm, i'd better change my socks then |
| 23:58:08 | preglow | amiconn: i think it was because the wheel tick then wouldn't necessarily mean that something happened in the user interface |
| 23:58:21 | preglow | amiconn: so you thought the tick should be handled from the gui code that handled the button events |
| 23:58:45 | amiconn | hmm... |
