00:00:53willzzzany chance that rockbox will have zen micro support?
00:01:06Captain_Ayes
00:01:20Paul_The_NerdIf someone with a Zen Micro does it.
00:01:23Captain_Awhen you decide to start coding for it
00:03:06vbsocverdude94How do I find out if a wad is PRBoom compatible?

00:18:47Stas_hello!
00:19:37preglowgood day, sir!
00:19:55Soapgood evening
00:20:19Stas_I just wanted to say that rockbox rocks.
00:20:29Stas_Er, no pun intended :)
00:20:34vbsocverdude94lol, got that right, I just got it today
00:20:58vbsocverdude94are there any other plug-ins you can download?
00:21:41Stas_Not a clue..
00:21:45Stas_I got it yesterday ;p
00:22:01Stas_But I already found the best plugin: chess!
00:22:06SoapWhat drew you to RockBox?
00:22:57Stas_The features, mostly :)
00:23:10Stas_Plugins, themes, equalizer
00:23:14vbsocverdude94me? Dunno, I was almost scared to, cuz I tried linux once and it bricked my nano, luckily apple sent me a new one
00:23:34vbsocverdude94I like the cross fade and plugins
00:23:59 Quit matsl (Remote closed the connection)
00:24:50Stas_oh, yeah
00:24:53Stas_the crossfade too :D
00:24:58Stas_oh
00:25:00Stas_I have a question though
00:25:02preglowi find it hard to believe linux bricked your nano
00:25:06Stas_is there a way to speed up scrolling through long lists?
00:26:01 Quit bluebrother ("Leaving")
00:26:43jhMikeSpreglow: the problem was in that recording.c patch. the codec loading was handled incorrectly.
00:26:46Soapthere 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.

00:30:44Stas_Is that the same as the 30GB?
00:30:51TheMcPoonI suppose
00:30:54Soapyes
00:31:03TheMcPoonThanks
00:31:13Soapthe 60 gig accheives its longer runtime through a double-sized RAM cache.
00:31:47Soap(which is not currently used by rockbox :( )
00:31:56TheMcPoonWill it be?
00:32:05Soapyes
00:32:30TheMcPoonAny ETA?

00:43:33Soapin answer to your question: Yes, GYBE! was the peak.
00:43:39O11i can't find it because it's in korean..
00:43:54 Part TheWerWolf
00:44:00Soaparen't there different firmwares for different languages?
00:44:18mirakyou can always put in english
00:44:29O11no.. just for different regions.. the korean one still has english..
00:44:33O11it's just better
00:44:41Stas_Hm
00:44:47O11i can't understand it to find where to change the setting..
00:44:51Stas_What's better for lower battery consumption?
00:44:59Stas_When the screen background is dark or light?
00:45:20O11is it not possible to shut down the player while it's charging?
00:45:48Soapthere is debate over that. By far the backlight consumes so much power in comparison to the LCD itself as to make it a miror quibble.
00:45:58Soap*minor
00:47:05Stas_ah
00:47:59TheMcPoonHow do I change it so when I press pause it doesn't go lower and lower volume, but just off
00:48:09O11is there a plugin that you can use to test how long the battery lasts?
00:48:20O11i have a feeling that my battery is really really short living..
00:49:00mirakTheMcPoon: in the sound options
00:49:10TheMcPoonwhich option is it?

01:13:53Paul_The_NerdThen make your own build. Or don't use those themes.
01:14:28linuxstbPaul_The_Nerd: I've updated the IpodInstallation instructions for the v1.2 Nano. Not sure if I can face changing all the other pages - maybe we should just delete those wiki pages and link people to the manual...

01:14:59LandusUh. I'm trying to fix the audioscrobbler patch. The line numbers and text to change doesn't match up, and I don't understand the syntax that points to what lines the changes take place on completely.
01:15:18LandusAnyone want to lend help?
01:16:13Paul_The_Nerdlinuxstb: Yeah, by this point we really should be just trying to keep the installation instructions in the manual correct, and not having divided points. The wiki page probably could be trimmed down to just a list of files used in the installation, and brief descriptions of them.
01:16:54 Quit O11 ()
01:17:27LandusGuess, I'll just explain the problem and hope I get help.
01:17:37Landus@@ -634,6 +634,11 @@ static const struct bit_entry hd_bits[]
01:17:54LandusThe -634 stands for the line the change starts to happen on.
01:18:03LandusBut I don't get why the ,6 is following it.
01:18:14LandusSame for the +634.
01:18:25LandusWhat does the ,11 mean.
01:18:32preglowlinuxstb: so you figured out what was wrong?
01:19:51linuxstbYes, Apple added an rsrc image, exactly like the 5g's firmware partition.
01:20:34preglowcontaining what?
01:20:43linuxstbIt's a FAT16 image and contains wav files with voice clips of famous athletes congratulating you on breaking your own personal bests at various distances... :)
01:20:49linuxstbPlus some XML files.
01:20:59preglowhahahahahahah
01:21:16linuxstbHow can you not love Apple?
01:21:45Soapsweet, so now firmware v1.2 is no longer broken after installing rockbox.

01:26:40*Paul_The_Nerd has never heard of "optimization" as meaning "making trade off"

01:41:59vbsocverdude94is the section about VLC encoding how to convert?
01:42:43Paul_The_NerdYes
01:43:50TheMcPoonHow come on so many themes the text is screwed up for me?
01:44:08Paul_The_NerdThey probably require patches.
01:44:15Paul_The_NerdOr, if you don't have the fonts pack, then fonts you do not have
01:44:18vbsocverdude94So if I download the transcode.bat thing, I have to edit the thing to the nano's screen size?
01:44:25Paul_The_NerdYes.
01:44:30TheMcPoonThey're not already patched?
01:44:43Paul_The_NerdThey require that *Rockbox* has the patches
01:44:49vbsocverdude94how do i change it?
01:45:03Paul_The_Nerdvbsocverdude94: Open it up in any text editor, and change it.

02:02:26Soapno, not all do. Installing the fonts was mentioned an hour ago when you first complained of screen-alignment issues in WPS.

02:02:41Soapfrom the download page, download the fonts .zip
02:02:49TheMcPoonokay, lemme look
02:02:51Soapand extract into the root of your player.
02:03:05scorcheTheMcPoon: from the "daily builds" page to be precise

02:46:11Stas_What if I update my ipod with itunes, while rockbox is installed
02:46:13JdGordon42
02:46:16Stas_will there be any side effects?
02:46:20Stas_omg
02:46:23Stas_42 side effects?
02:46:38*JdGordon got the 42 in late
02:46:51JdGordondunno about itunes tho
02:46:55preglowJdGordon: oy, in the eq screen, the center frequency is no longer accelerated when play is being pressed
02:47:02Stas_or, ipodupdater
02:47:23JdGordonpreglow: it used to do what?
02:47:25preglowJdGordon: yes
02:47:34preglowthat
02:47:34JdGordonyes?
02:47:39JdGordonthat!
02:47:41Stas_How does battery charging work on the ipod?
02:47:45preglowwhen you pressed play while using the arrow keys, the value would change faster
02:47:57Stas_I know that normally, it gets powercharged to around 80%
02:47:57JdGordonAH... ok
02:47:59preglowthis is on h1x0, that is
02:48:04Stas_and then slowly brought up to 100%
02:48:07preglowdon't know how it worked on other platforms
02:48:22Stas_Is the algorithm for doing this in the hardware
02:48:30Stas_or does rockbox control it?
02:48:46preglowStas_: hardware
02:48:53Stas_ok :
02:48:55Stas_)
02:49:11Stas_I had some concern, because rockbox clearly has no sense whatsoever of what the battery charge is at ;p
02:49:31Stas_(even less so than the original firmware)

05:01:37Adamgot a few questions
05:02:42Adamright 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
05:02:57Adambut right now i have no apple on it at all
05:03:38aliaskThe 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.
05:04:06Adamisn't there a program to rebuild the iPod database
05:04:29aliaskYes, but I think the files need to be in the ipod_control directory
05:04:35aliaskAnd named in a certain way etc.
05:04:48aliaskPerhaps this has changed, I don't really know.
05:04:57Adammmm
05:05:00Adami need paul the nerd
05:05:36Adamwhatever ill just try foobar and see what happens!
05:05:43BHSPitMonkeyfoobar is good.
05:05:45aliaskThat's always a good plan.
05:06:09BHSPitMonkeyafaik, that'll work, UNTIL you plug it into iTunes
05:06:17BHSPitMonkeyat which point it tries to foil your plan
05:06:29Adamnot if u turn auto update off
05:06:38aliaskAh, good ol' iTunes.
05:06:39BHSPitMonkeythat's just what I've read

07:44:57Paul_The_NerdI suppose the "yes" that was a typo of "yet" could be read as that, if you take it completely alone.
07:45:30Paul_The_NerdBut 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.

08:19:04JdGordonbut daurnimatoris also correct
08:19:15JdGordonbut almost none of the current targets have moved yet i tinhk
08:20:05daurnimatori find this funny i know this stuff
08:20:11vikwhat would a generic menu button be?
08:20:11daurnimatori've never used rockbox before
08:20:49JdGordonBUTTON_MODE / _MENU
08:20:57JdGordonthats iriver hxxx and ipod
08:21:07JdGordondunno about the others
08:21:51vikisn't there any abstraction of this?
08:21:58JdGordonnot for plugins yet
08:22:19JdGordonwell there is... but its not setup for plugins properly yet
08:23:08JdGordonvik, you can use the get_aciton() call in the api, and check for ACTION_STD_MENU

08:23:57JdGordonrb->get_action(CONTEXT_STD,TIMEOUT_BLOCK);
08:24:01JdGordonsomething like that
08:24:20Coldtoastjust compiled the nano build and I notice fade-on-pause seems to be a bit odd
08:24:22vikcurrently in a loop using rb->button_get_w_tmo; would rb_get_action be better?
08:24:37JdGordondepends what else you need your buttons to do
08:24:51JdGordonColdtoast: how odd?
08:25:08Coldtoastwhen I pause/unpause, it seems to fade a bit slight pause then complete the fade
08:25:21Coldtoastliek it's doing it in 2 phases
08:25:37vikJdGordon: how do they differ?
08:25:50Coldtoastthe only patches I use are bmp_resize and album_art so I'm not touching anythign else
08:26:22JdGordonvik: the aciton stuff is a complete replacement... so if you cant check for BUTTON_LEFT and ACTION_STD_MENU (for exmaple)
08:26:38JdGordonColdtoast: has this just started happening?
08:26:49JdGordoni know there was some work in the playback code which may have affected this
08:27:18ColdtoastJdGordon: : in the past few days actually
08:27:27Coldtoastmaybe for the past 4 days?
08:27:36JdGordonok, file a bug report on FS
08:27:36Coldtoastjust got a chance to get online tho
08:27:50Paul_The_NerdTry it without the patches before filing the report.
08:29:01Coldtoastdoing that now
08:29:04JdGordonColdtoast: 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
08:29:25Coldtoastok
08:30:53JdGordonalthough.. just looking at the changes to that file.. that might be difficult.... the schedualr commit will make it pretty painful
08:32:42Coldtoastok. it's definitely not the patches
08:33:13Coldtoastit fades to very quiet then sits there for possibly about 1 sec then completes the fade
08:33:56Coldtoastcrossfading works prefectly fine, it's just fade on pause/stop
08:34:30JdGordonit was one of the last 3 changes to playback.c
08:34:54JdGordonhttp://www.rockbox.org/viewcvs.cgi/apps/playback.c
08:35:08JdGordonthe first 2 should be safe to roll back... the 3rd wont be tho
08:35:20JdGordonif you can try them it will make it easier to find the bug
08:35:39Coldtoastok
08:35:53ColdtoastI'll do it now

09:22:34Paul_The_NerdA lot of people will be irritated if you clear their settings and then tell them they can't load their backed up settings.

09:27:45JdGordonbecause settings use the english version of the lang string instead of the text from the block lists like now
09:28:11Bagderonly that?
09:28:25Bagderthen a converter would be dead easy, wouldn't it?
09:28:38JdGordonyes, and easy, but long and boring
09:28:57hcsyay, just got an ADX decoder running in rockbox
09:29:04*petur slaps JdGordon with a large config file
09:29:12petur:p
09:29:17*JdGordon slaps petur with an even bigger one
09:29:26BagderJdGordon: not for the thousands of users who'll use it ;-)
09:29:27*petur ducks just in time
09:29:46hcsstep2 is to add looping, the major draw of ADX in the first place
09:29:53webguest26has anyone had trouble with the "show path" feature in the last few CVS builds for the H120?
09:30:20hcsis there a guide to adding a codec into rockbox anywhere? if not I wrote one up for my own use and I could stick it in the wiki
09:31:13*amiconn still things that using the lang strings for the settings isn't a good idea
09:31:23amiconn*thinks even
09:31:25JdGordonBagder: 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
09:31:28Bagderhcs: I don't think there is one, it'd be great to have one!
09:31:37*Bagder agrees with amiconn that it feels shaky
09:31:56petur(/)me too
09:32:18JdGordonwhy?
09:32:32Bagderbecause changing the language is not considered lethal
09:32:40Bagderwhich it will be now when it breaks configs
09:32:47JdGordonand how often is the english changed?
09:32:54Bagderit doesn't matter to me
09:33:10petura dependancy that should not be
09:33:29Bagderand I don't see any gain in having it
09:33:56JdGordonfarily big size gain in not storing a text sting with every setting
09:34:38JdGordonfaster saving code also, because it doesnt have to tokenise the setting values string
09:34:43Bagderso that is the 8K?
09:34:57hcsBagder: ok, should I send it to someone or can I get write access, I have registered AdamGashlin on twiki
09:35:11BagderJdGordon: you could have the strings in whatever format you wanted, it wouldn't have to affect speed at all
09:35:18JdGordonno, the 8K is removing config blocks, redoing the menus, and settings

09:40:14Bagderyou could index the strings in the very same way even if they aren't from the language system

09:45:30O112358I'm really confused
09:46:10JdGordonok, 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
09:46:12JdGordonbrb fone
09:46:20JdGordonnope, too slow
09:46:44JdGordonif your all really dead set against it then ill drop the subject
09:46:57amiconnJdGordon: 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.
09:47:13amiconnHowever, the comma search was there to save space, esp. on SH1
09:47:37JdGordonand adding the setting strings would use up space which isnt really needed
09:47:38hcsok, my little codec guide is up
09:47:57JdGordonthe space iss needed.. the string isnt

10:24:14dwihnoThere's a really nice tool which, at least, used to have a free demo.. Paragon partition manager, I think the name is.
10:24:18aliaskRockbox should get a formatting routine...
10:24:42*dwihno disagrees
10:24:54peturor boot original firmware, that can format too
10:25:33aliaskWell, rockbox is primarily for people who know what they're doing with things, so I don't think it'd be too dangerous.
10:25:49peturbut maybe doesn't do good errorchecking

10:35:45JdGordonno
10:35:50aliask*not yet
10:36:18GingerDoghas much changed?
10:36:43aliaskIt uses a completely different CPU, at least - nobody has been able to get one to take a good look yet though.
10:36:57linuxstbGingerDog: Yes - it's a completely different ipod to all the previous ones. So it's basically a completely new Rockbox port to start from scratch.
10:37:12GingerDogah; i'll steer clear of it for now then
10:37:13GingerDogthank you
10:37:47linuxstbOr at least, that's what it looks like so far...

10:39:16aliaskWhat scorche said. :)
10:39:45linuxstbIt's too early to need them IMO. We can't do anything until we decrypt the firmware, and I don't think physical disassembly will help with that process.
10:40:03aliaskDoes it use a different bootloader system?
10:40:17scorcheit is more of a curiosity for me

10:52:10theli_uai wonder is there any way to get button name (string) from something like BUTTON_PLAY ?
10:52:50 Part webguest58
10:52:53hcsah, apparently a gcc bug, fixed by putting spaces around the minus sign
10:55:14linuxstbtheli_ua: No
10:55:40theli_uathat was what i thiugh :( .... unfortunately ... this feature would be usable
10:56:21linuxstbYou 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).
10:57:06theli_uayes ... i just started to make zxbox's keymap menu to be more target-friendly ....
10:57:24theli_uabut i wonder what can be the way to implement it ?
10:58:26linuxstbWe 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.
10:59:21theli_uaso it could just be a big header with defines in plugins/lib ....
11:00
11:00:28linuxstbAlso, 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".
11:01:14theli_uayes.. thats what i meant ... a lot target-specific defines ... not very good
11:01:36hcsit is called "select" on iPod, see http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651
11:04:05linuxstbThey're not consistent though - it's called "the Center button" here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304322
11:04:26linuxstbAnd I'm sure I've seen it refered to as "Action"...
11:04:28hcsdoh
11:05:09Paul_The_NerdI like "select" for it though
11:05:17hcstherefore the only fair way to name it is to make up something else
11:05:24Paul_The_Nerd"Invoke"!
11:05:30*Paul_The_Nerd likes the word "invoke"
11:05:55*hcs concurs
11:06:01linuxstb"center button" is the least ambiguous, but then we need US and British English versions...

11:09:45aliaskSomeone's going to have to explain this to me...
11:10:30linuxstbtheli_ua is right - we shouldn't be using the word "ROM" with zxbox.

11:11:22linuxstbThere 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.
11:12:25theli_uai'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
11:12:50theli_uai know it is not very convenient .... but that is the only solution for such big games for now
11:13:23theli_uaor another solution is to load this tape to the end and dump snapshot :)
11:13:43aliaskBut it freezes while loading - at 34-35%

11:56:49thegeekthey can run in both modes
11:56:53linuxstbtucoz: 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+
11:57:03thegeekjust read some reviews of it
11:57:26Paul_The_Nerdtucoz: 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.

11:57:48tucozso it _is_ possible, but painful :)

12:51:18theli_ualinuxstb, this would definitly boost at least video

13:58:47webguest22I've noticed the commit reg. Recording countdown timer. Nice feature! But why not call the structure members rec_xxx? The settings structure has many members and a clue from a name is great help.
13:59:14amiconnHrrm!
13:59:31webguest22Or are those members a general purpose timer which can be linked to recording?
13:59:37amiconnThe recording countdown timer implementation has a number of serious problems just from looking at it!

14:01:03amiconn(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
14:01:43preglowdefinitely bad
14:01:46webguest22Does such timer make sense on H1xx? There is no RTC.
14:01:48preglowand should be fixed asap
14:02:08amiconn(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
14:02:11webguest22How could it be set to three days on H1xx?
14:02:30LinusNwebguest22: well, the player has to be on for 3 days
14:02:41amiconnwebguest22: It's just unnecessary to use the user timer. Using the tick is more than sufficient
14:02:56webguest22LinusN: hmm... That's not the thing a DAP is for IMHO

14:08:07LinusNi can't understand why it was committed in the first place

14:08:27pondlifeIt was only up on FS for others to do prelmiinary testing
14:08:38webguest22LinusN: well, I understand that and also understand why RB devs do or do not things. But as professional devs (and you are!) you also should keep in mind usability and not only fun factor.
14:08:52*amiconn wonders what would be the easiest way to revert a multi-file commit
14:08:57LinusNwe are professional devs, but rockbox is our hobby
14:09:10webguest22Or, in other words: implementing a really usefull feature should make fun even if it's not that much fun coding.

14:14:01obolini: you're welcome - now all I/we need to do is nag!
14:14:09pondlifeWhen a playlist ends naturally, voice thread calls swap_codec but no audio codec is around to ever swap back

14:15:48liniobo: actually i made the same updates to my source yesterday, but there was a slight problem when i tested on my ipod
14:16:03jhMikeSQ_ENCODER_RECORD, Q_AUDIO_PLAY to the voice thread
14:16:03linisome of the menus were very laggy
14:16:06pondlifeThe problem is that the message queue and dequeue can happen over the unloading of the audio codec
14:16:23obolini: ah, I think that might be down to the new scheduler system itself
14:16:25pondlifeIt will be Q_AUDIO_PLAY that is the problem
14:16:37pondlifeI can look into it later in the week.
14:16:41linii suppose it's a problem with some other patch that i apply (e.g. piezo)
14:16:42obolini: is it the same for you in vanilla CVS?
14:16:47jhMikeSIt's no longer sent if current_codec != CODEC_IDX_VOICE

14:20:03pondlifeMainly 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
14:20:08pondlifeI'll recover

14:20:18liniIf all seems fine, I promise to help with the nagging :)

14:21:54pondlifeNo worries. As long as I know what the bug recipes are, I can look into it
14:22:12pondlifeI did object a bit to the word "botched" though!
14:22:19jhMikeSbut with the playlist thing...swap codec seems a bad call if the codec you're swapping out isn't current.
14:22:28pondlifeI had spent 3 weeks reading and re-reading playback.c
14:23:19pondlifeIMHO there should be less tests on current_codec and more on x_codec_loaded. Simpler to understand and ought to work just as well.

14:25:07pondlifeThat and not calling swap_codec at the wrong time...
14:25:08jhMikeSMan...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.
14:25:27pondlifeOK, will investigete further
14:26:13pondlifeII need to fix the problem where pcmbuf leaves the CPU boosted after playback stops too sometimes.

14:56:33mirak7jhMikeS 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 ?

15:24:00mirak7jhMikeS you sure you applyed all the patch ?
15:24:40jhMikeSmikark7: I believe I just have the CVS since I made .zip from it and unzipped to the player...should try again.
15:26:05jhMikeSamiconn: Adding the CS delay did nothing for the remote ticking BTW so I guess more drastic measures are needed.

15:42:46tucozLinusN: the moderation in the forums? yeah, there is always long discussions and complaints that the posting is made in the wrong thread/headline
15:44:17jhMikeSamiconn: 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.
15:44:27linuxstbRegarding flyspray, how about having a "how to report bugs" wiki page, and a highly visible link to it from Flyspray?
15:44:45LinusNi think that the level of moderation may be perceived as somewhat hostile
15:44:57tucozyes. that is my impression as well.
15:45:51tucozThe people moderating the forums know the forums in and out. But I would not expect e newcomer to do that
15:45:56*pondlife wonders if the word "forums" exists; or would "fora" be more correct..
15:46:01aliasklinuxstb: That would assume that these people would bother reading it.
15:46:15*tucoz things that pondlife is right
15:46:21tucozthinks even
15:46:29vikhow important is optimisation?
15:46:35pondlifeNot that anyone else in the world would know what fora are
15:46:39vikin terms of code size?
15:46:40linuxstbaliask: But at least it would be there... At the moment, there is no guidance at all regarding how to use Flyspray.
15:46:46LinusNvik: it depends on what you optimize
15:46:53amiconnjhMikeS: I don't think the edge transition speed changes with CPU frequency, but of course the number of trnasitions per second changes
15:47:10amiconnIiirc the asm version flips clock & data at once
15:47:25tucozlinuxstb: good idea. And that should be written in an friendly easy fast readable way :)
15:47:36aliasklinuxstb: Ugh, yes sorry. I misread "flyspray" for "forums", for which there is plenty on how to post.
15:48:04linuxstbtucoz: Yes, by one of our highly-skilled and talented manual writers....
15:48:22vikLinusN: 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
15:48:52tucozlinuxstb: yes. I think they should write it as well :)
15:48:52LinusNvik: the archos platforms are very sensitive regarding code size
15:49:39jhMikeSamiconn: yeah...but I changed it to do data then clock as an experiment and results were very bad for EMI
15:49:39vikLinusN: Hmmm... could do it without them, but it would not be as 'nice'
15:50:18jhMikeSare there any funky seeming-not-to-make sense wires in the remote connected to CPU pins? *big speculation*
15:50:22vikDo the archos platforms have RTCs?
15:50:47LinusNvik: yes, some of them
15:50:56LinusNvik: what are you doing?
15:51:14vikLinusN: making an alarm clock.
15:51:17LinusNjhMikeS: huh?
15:51:24LinusNvik: the alarm plugin?
15:51:35vikLinusN: yep; making it better
15:51:49vikLinusN: and work on other devices
15:51:51LinusNyou can include any code you like in the plugin
15:52:02amiconnArchos 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)
15:52:06jhMikeSLinusN: just wondering if maybe they had something for EMI suppression built in... :\
15:52:23vikLinusN: yeah, but library functions are, well, 'nicer'
15:52:39LinusNvik: of course
15:52:53Bagderthere's a pluginlib too for plugin-only purposes
15:53:07LinusNbtw, i'm thinking of adding an alarm function API in the core
15:53:59LinusNwhich broadcasts SYS_ALARM when the timer expires
15:54:00vikLinusN: interesting.
15:54:02jhMikeSLinusN: could be useful for recording
15:54:16LinusNthen we could have a cron thread that retriggers it
15:54:33vikAnd would this be more useful if standard time functions were available?

16:01:12LinusNtime to start cutting out features for the archos platforms then
16:01:22amiconnLinusN: Why?
16:01:38JdGordonor cut features out of rombox...

16:02:42jhMikeShmmm...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
16:02:54JdGordonsorry had to be the first.. it being sep 19th here already :p
16:03:24JdGordoncan rombox rolo to a regular rockbox from the disk?
16:03:25amiconnThere'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

16:04:23LinusNamiconn: i think you're right
16:04:34amiconnI don't have such a device myself

16:05:46Bagderamiconn: since we'll continue to add features, (3) is a lost race
16:05:55amiconnNot necessarily
16:06:22amiconnYou see that there's quite some potential e.g. in JdGordon's settings rework
16:06:31amiconnThen there is langv2 ....
16:07:01JdGordonnot if you cut off its leg and force me to use english for the setting names :D (/me runs away)
16:07:13amiconnAnd I suspect quite some dead code has creeped in since my last cleanup
16:07:15LinusNamiconn: still, if we continue adding features, we will exhaust (3) sooner or later
16:07:17*Bagder cuts lef
16:07:19Bagderleg
16:07:21jhMikeSoh right...something must go to the pcf50606
16:08:01Bagderand clearly, there aren't that many developers keeping the Archos builds top-notch
16:08:12RaeNyelinusn,jhmikes: what are you counting?
16:08:14LinusNbut i agree that we should take a good look at the archos platforms to cut some fat
16:08:24LinusNRaeNye: the pins in the remote connector
16:08:37JdGordonanother option is moving the wps code to a rock, with only a very minimul wps drawer in the core, but that breaks TSR rocks
16:08:49RaeNyebrb
16:08:49amiconnCutting junk would help all builds, even if we aren't that short on memory there
16:09:01LinusNJdGordon: don't go there
16:09:06amiconnEven that's not entirely true, thinking about the iFP...
16:09:07Bagdercutting junk is good
16:09:10*JdGordon dont's
16:09:35LinusNthe bookmark code can be trimmed, for instance
16:10:15jhMikeSI 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)
16:10:16JdGordonbookmarks should be scrapped and replaced with playlist code which takes care of it and .cue files (imo)
16:11:20LinusN.cue files for bookmarks?
16:11:36JdGordonno, but with change playlist code they would be handled the same way
16:11:55JdGordonboth are just a maerker into another audio file

16:24:41Bagdernice
16:24:58markunIt also has the TxD0 and RxD0 which are nice for a Linux port to connect to a terminal(emulator)
16:25:32Bagdera 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
16:26:17LinusNoh yes, that was a dream when disassembling

21:15:56Xerionyes...
21:16:01Xerionlike that 2.5 TB drive
21:16:05BigMacsoon we'll have 400 gb daps
21:16:08peturso much more junk to collect
21:16:12Xerionwould love some of those in raid5 :p
21:16:29Genre9mp3linuxstb: A 3.5 inch 300GB drive would do the trick
21:16:39TeaSeapetur: Yes but to be honest, unless battery life improves or HD efficiency shoots up, I think my next player will be a flash one.
21:16:59TeaSeaMy X5's battery life is dire.
21:17:03TeaSeaAnd i've only had it a year.
21:17:37mirakit's bullshit anyway, you don't need 50 gigas just for music on a dap
21:17:47linuxstbYou don't?
21:17:52peturwhy not?
21:18:03miraksince the invention of drag and drop and usb2
21:18:19peturI take all my music with me, and would like to take all my pictures with me too
21:18:25Xerionmeh 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
21:19:23Genre9mp3Not to mention lossless music...
21:19:40mirakall 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
21:19:45amiconnOf course I have multiple full copies
21:19:48 Quit Rondom (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
21:20:07amiconnIt's highly unlikely that all daps will fail at the same time
21:20:41mirakwanting to have all is music on the dap is symptome of collectionners (don't know how it is translatedà
21:20:42mirak)
21:20:46peturmy pc serves the music files for my home music system so I have them there too
21:21:04mirakit's like people who burn everything, but will never watch a quarter of it
21:21:08TeaSeapetur: Yes.
21:21:11TeaSeamirak: Heh.
21:21:17peturno mirak, freedom of choice
21:21:23TeaSeaI watch everything I download before I burn it.
21:21:25Slasherii have all music and files on server that i backup to lacie bigdisk 600GB with rdiff-backup over network
21:21:28Xerionas long as there are desktop HD's bigger than the DAP hd's all my music will never fit lol
21:21:43peturI listen to the music I want at that moment, and can select any song I have
21:21:43amiconnmirak: I disagree. I only keep music I like. Other music gets deleted
21:21:45Xerionnah not even that
21:21:45TeaSeapetur: I'm rarely away from my PC for more than a day, so I think a 4GB player would suffice for me.
21:21:58hardeepGenre9mp3: are all the bmp's in the iCatcher/UniCatcher still needed or can some be removed?
21:22:06Xerioncan have multiple hd's in pc so it will never fit :D
21:22:19amiconnMaybe that's why my whole music collection still fits on a 20GB dap (the majority of which is lame −−preset standard encoded)
21:22:21mirakamiconn: 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
21:22:27Slasheriin 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
21:22:42amiconnOh noes
21:22:56Genre9mp3hardeep: The file I sent to you has all the new bmps, don't erase the previous ones :)
21:23:05Xerionmeh 4 GB would really be too little to fit music for all moods i might develop during the day
21:23:15markunGenre9mp3: you were looking for me?
21:23:17Xerioncan't predict how i'll feel all day
21:23:23amiconnSlasheri: I still don't get the purpose. I mean, I know what music I like and what music I dislike without a rating system
21:23:24hardeepGenre9mp3: okay, I haven't deleted anything :)
21:23:25mirakXerion: yes, but with 20G that's really a lot
21:23:32Genre9mp3markun: Yup, then hardeep showed up! :)
21:23:38markunok :)
21:23:44Xerioni have 40GB now, it does seem enough :p
21:24:42Xerionwhen DAP's have usb host function you can just take some drives in usb cages with you heh

21:45:42Learmmmm: see tick_add_task. not many examples afaics, but car adapter mode seems to be one.
21:46:00Mmmmok, thanks lear :)
21:46:27Learmmmm: debug audio thread might be a better one...
21:46:46lowlightSo, I got inspired during lunch and made a vertical progress bar for the wps...

21:47:22obolini: around?
21:47:23peturwhat about vertical peakmeters?
21:48:46amiconnMmmm: There is quite a number of tick tasks. Button driver, adc driver (on some targets), ...
21:49:12amiconnJust make sure not to perform lcd updates from a tick task, that's isr context as well
21:49:23Mmmmok, and they are all called by tick_add_task right?
21:49:31lowlightI don't see why not. Peakmeters are just scroll bars. But they'd be on the left of the screen.
21:49:31preglowhcs: adx?
21:49:36amiconnNo, they are added by tick_add_task
21:49:48amiconn...and called by the timer tick isr
21:49:54amiconn...HZ times per second
21:49:59*Lear only looked for tick tasks in apps...
21:50:09hcspreglow: a 4-bit ADPCM format used in a whole lot of video games, has looping
21:50:49preglowhcs: well, what's missing? is there a good reason not to post a patch?
21:51:06Mmmmamiconn: ok :) so there is no way to call a tick task fewer times than HZ times per second?
21:51:13amiconnnope
21:51:41hcspreglow: 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

21:53:13amiconnI wonder whether it would be better to wait for Linus' general SYS_ALARM implementation
21:53:20webguest31hey 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 ?
21:54:00amiconnMmmm: More precisely, you could either send a message to a queue, or set a variable that is polled by the main thread
21:54:31Mmmmahh right, thanks... will linus's SYS_ALARM affect a recording countdown timer?
21:55:00amiconn...or finally, just don't interact that way but implement the blinking indicator directly in the main thread
21:55:01hcsmarkun: 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
21:56:05hcsah, crashes at the end of non-looped tracks, want to get that taken care of...
21:56:20Mmmmamiconn: 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..
21:56:47amiconnIs it really necessary?
21:56:56Mmmmno..but it would be nice!
21:57:08Mmmmthen you could always tell when the timer is finished
21:57:08amiconnI think a recording timer doesn't make sense outside of the recording screen
21:57:33webguest31i heared about pause on headphone remove, and 64 meg buffer patches. where can i find them?!
21:57:34Mmmmhmmm...maybe
21:57:42amiconnYou simply can't switch to recording from anywhere. It needs preparation
21:58:17 Quit _FireFly_ ("Leaving")
21:58:36amiconnIt should be possible to show an activated timer in the status bar
21:58:50amiconnIt doesn't necessarily need to flash
21:59:07Mmmmamiconn: 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
21:59:26amiconnOnly problem is the recorder status bar, where there is no extra room
21:59:35Mmmmyup!
21:59:36amiconnAll other status bars have some room
21:59:52amiconnBut you could e.g. invert the time display on rtc targets
21:59:56webguest31am i asking the wrong way?
22:00
22:00:17Mmmmamiconn: you're a genious!
22:00:28Mmmmthat's a good idea!
22:00:38obowebguest31: on the patch tracker :)
22:00:39amiconnOn other targets, the place where the time display would be could display a timer icon
22:00:56Mmmmyeah.. I like it...
22:01:32webguest31i cant find anything by "headphones"
22:01:45obopatch number 4899
22:01:45amiconnWhat happens if you're doing something else and the timer expires?
22:01:55amiconnLike listening music, playing a game plugin etc?
22:02:26Mmmmrtc can alternate
22:02:35Mmmminverse/non inverse
22:03:01amiconnI don't mean the display only
22:03:20Mmmmyou mean some sort of sound warning?
22:03:24peturI 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]")
22:03:59peturusing the rtc alarm + preprogrammed action to perform is much more usefull
22:04:18Mmmmnot all targets have an rtc :p
22:04:22peturI know
22:04:33peturmine has :p
22:04:34amiconnI think th etimer should be programmable in terms of date+time on rtc targets, and as countdown on non-rtc targets
22:04:44peturyes
22:05:14amiconnAnd if the timer has a settable action, it could be useful for other purposes than just recording as well
22:05:41amiconnThe settable action probably requires the screen state machine already mentioned several times
22:07:26amiconnWith rtc, the alarm should of course also be able to power up the dap, if the hardware permits it

23:27:40liniyes, 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
23:28:33preglowobo: 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
23:29:13Bagder:-)
23:29:15obopreglow: hmmm, okay 1 for 2... but I bet you wouldn't like the audioscrobbler one either :)

23:29:31Bagderbrrrrr burrrrr birrrr brrrr
23:29:46dionoeaobo: did you see the comment i added at the end of the piezzo patch entry on FS ? (about the waveform thing)
23:29:59amiconnWell, 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
23:30:14dionoeaBagder: sounds neat :)
23:30:16obodionoea: yes, I did, but then I didn't touch anything rockbox releated in about 5 weeks... so haven't done anything about it
23:30:26preglowobo: i see no problem with that, i even used audioscrobbler myself up to a point
23:30:27amiconnKinda 1-bit software DAC - and the music is recognisable!
23:30:32dionoeayou can basically use it to emulate volume change
23:31:54obopreglow: 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
23:32:39obopreglow: I'll have to scrape the bit rot off the audioscrobbler patch if it stands a vague chance

23:45:37obolini: what priority did you give the piezo thread?
23:45:41linibackground
23:45:52linii guess this is too low
23:45:52obomight be worth upping it a bit?
23:46:12linii'm afraid that this will bring back the skipping audio
23:46:17linii'll try of course :)
23:46:23preglowit shouldn't
23:46:29preglowthe thread should be primarily sleeping
23:46:38preglowjust waiting for queued messages, i guess
23:47:18 Quit frobnitz ("leaving")
23:47:21oboyeah, that thread doesn't exactly do a lot
23:47:29amiconnWhy does the piezo need a separate thread?
23:47:44obomy crude way of making it not block
23:48:02oboif it's a strange way of doing things blame it on my not knowing any better :)
23:48:11preglowamiconn: you're the one who intially told me to put it in its own thread
23:48:22preglowamiconn: the piezo needs to be enabled, then forgotten until it's time to stop it
23:48:32amiconnYes.
23:48:38amiconnIs it controlled vi agpio?
23:48:38preglowamiconn: the best way to do that is register a tick task that stops it after so and so many ticks
23:48:57preglowamiconn: you just set the freq and it handles itself
23:51:23amiconnHow many ticks are needed for a button click?
23:51:36amiconnMaybe it could be handled by the button tick directly?

23:52:42desrtdoes anyone know what sort of cpu is in the new ipod nano?
23:53:48preglowa samsung arm/calmrisc affair
23:54:01preglowamiconn: i used just one tick for duration
23:54:23preglowamiconn: i did handle it in the button tick, but you didn't like that...
23:54:26desrti have no idea how i'm meant to get music onto this thing
23:54:50amiconnOh?
23:54:51 Join linuxstb_ [0] (i=5343d4aa@gateway/web/cgi-irc/labb.contactor.se/session)
23:55:17amiconnMaybe I need to check the logs why I didn't like it
23:55:26*amiconn is slightly confused
23:55:45preglowamiconn: don't remember why, but i THINK it was because you didn't want it always ticking
23:56:15amiconnOf course it should be optional...
23:56:27linihmh, same effect with PRIORITY_SYSTEM
23:56:36linisounds like a geiger counter when i scroll :)
23:56:45amiconnSpeaking about the ipod button driver - using the wheel doesn't update last_user_activity
23:57:10amiconnVery annoying when playing sudoku and needing to think a while, only moving around the grid with the wheel...
23:57:10obolini: maybe it's trying to tell you something... :)
23:58:07linihm, i'd better change my socks then
23:58:08preglowamiconn: i think it was because the wheel tick then wouldn't necessarily mean that something happened in the user interface
23:58:21preglowamiconn: so you thought the tick should be handled from the gui code that handled the button events
23:58:45amiconnhmm...
23:58:52Paul_The_NerdI remember witnessing that conversation
