01:31:32moochhi
01:31:47markunhi mooch
01:31:52moochi am having serious problems with ipod and keeping the config from boot to boot
01:32:06moocheverytime i switch it off and on again, all the settings are gone
01:32:16moochi filled a bug about it, but it has not beenreplied
01:32:29markunweird problem
01:32:30moochi recall not having the behaviour with old versions of rockbox
01:33:07Soapuh, do you boot with the hold swith on?
01:33:08markunI don't have that problem with my player (iriver h120) and don't really think I can help you
01:33:20Soap*switch
01:33:33markunah yes, hold resets your settings
01:34:36markunSoap: on the iriver rockbox just doesn't power on if you have hold on, not so with the ipod?
01:35:13moochSoap: sometimes not
01:35:18Soapwell, you can't press a button to boot with the hold switch on.
01:35:28Soapmooch - sometimes not = sometimes yes?
01:35:42moochSoap: but it is fscking anoying...
01:35:52moochSoap: yes, sometimes i witch it on and put the hold on
01:36:03Soapmarkun - you can't press a button to boot w/the hold switch on, but you can eject the player from your computer, and unplug it from Apple's Disk Mode, thus causing a reboot.
01:36:07moochSoap: but most of the time i wait without the hold, and then it goes bananas
01:36:20moochSoap: there should be a switch to get the behaviour off
01:36:25markunbananas = reset settings?
01:36:27moocha config option
01:36:31Soapmooch - no, my question was do you ever boot it into rockbox with the hold switch on?
01:36:34moochmarkun: bananas = reset options, yes
01:36:43moochSoap: sometimes yes
01:36:55SoapThat is how you reset the settings, this is a feature.
01:37:01markunmooch: this feature is to help people who screwed up their settings
01:37:01Soapdon't boot with the hold switch on.
01:37:02moochthis is a bug
01:37:12markunmaybe a more difficult keypress should reset..
01:37:33moochSoap: it should go back to the selected settings if i reboot it with the hold button off
01:37:59moochSoap: the reset settings should be temporary
01:38:08SoapI can't think of a keypress more difficult than a toggle switch on top of the unit, all the other buttons are extremely touch-sensitive, and extremely close to the power-on button.
01:38:23moochSoap: if i reset it with the hold on, it should clear the settings and save the selected ones on a temp file
01:38:31Soapmooch - a temporary reset does not compute.
01:38:45moochif the temp file is not removed, it should be used to restore them
01:39:09moochon the next reboot
01:39:14markunmooch: implement it. If other people like it it might get included
01:39:28moochmarkun: i suck at coding anything else than bash
01:39:32moochmarkun: really
01:39:41markunsorry to hear that
01:39:41Soapmooch - the setting reset happens by clearing the special sector on the hard drive, at the bootloader stage, you would have to be IN rockbox to save settings, then reset, and if you were IN rockbox, it might be too late to clear crash-inducing settings.
01:40:24markunmooch: I think the whole settings system will change.
01:40:47markunJdGordon is working on something
01:41:15moochmarkun: s/bash/POSIX shell/
01:41:22SoapI guess you might be able to add config file backup to the bootloader, but I stress might, and what is so hard about not booting with the hold switch in the on position?
01:41:46moochSoap: i believe it also happens sometimes without the hold on
01:41:55markunmooch: if the settings in future are always saved to a file we can remove the 'clear settings' feature because you can just edit or remove the file by hand
01:42:19markunmooch: if you update rockbox and the settings version number has changed it will also reset your settings
01:42:21JdGordonnope
01:42:25markunJdGordon: no?
01:42:34markunThen what are you working on all this time?
01:42:52 Join YouCeyE [0] (n=YouCeyE@unaffiliated/youceye)
01:42:53JdGordonthe setting reset button will stay, but once u ae in rockbox, you can edit the config by hand and reload them
01:43:01moochSoap: also, it could be saved when you switch off the device, on a "status" file, and if they are reset, the file could be used to save the setting on switch off, if the file is not removed
01:43:14JdGordonbut resetng settings doesnt write the defaults to the setting file
01:43:25Soapmooch - it /might/ but since you admitted to behavior which causes settings to be reset, and I've never heard of anyone else with the problem who /doesn't/ have the hold switch on, I'm guessing it doesn't
01:43:43moochSoap: i will check it out
01:44:30Soapmooch - you're talking about adding a lot of complexity for little reward.
01:44:49moochalso, as a wishlist bug, it would be nice to have a 2 line status bar on config options that explain the behaviour of the config option with scrolling text
01:45:02moochat the bottom
01:45:13moochSoap: might be that i am complicated
01:45:13markunmooch: for now just save your settings after you have it all configured right. Then you can always reload it after a reset.
01:45:22moochmarkun: i am doing that
01:45:25markunok, good
01:45:28moochmarkun: but thanks for the tip
01:46:47markunthe config files are also useful for changing only a few options. I have one file for headphone and one for stereo use.

02:22:34pagefaultand C is only acceptable
02:22:41JdGordonno
02:22:45JdGordonasm is fine too
02:22:50scorchehehe
02:23:09pagefaultsee
02:23:12JdGordonalthough.. you need to know 3 different asm's

02:30:00pagefaultwhich model is that on
02:30:33scorcheon targets like the FM recorder
02:30:51pagefaultwell I have a H10 and I have no FM recorder so I was just wondering what ones had the support

03:02:02Davide-NYCGeneral question: Does optimising the WMA (or M4A AAC) decoders to play in real-time require *target specific* optimization?
03:02:37Davide-NYCI mean do they have to be optimized for each individual chip or is it a general thing?
03:03:21Davide-NYCI understand very little about this... anyone?
03:04:15markunDavide-NYC: I think the first step is to do general optimizations
03:04:43Davide-NYCis there a general feeling amongst the devs that this is a priority?
03:05:10Davide-NYCor are people taking the attitude that since they are closed formats they are not worth persuing
03:05:18Davide-NYCjust wondering
03:06:04Davide-NYCmarkun: but assembly (ASM) optimization would be CPU specific, correct?
03:06:09markunyes
03:06:33Davide-NYCwow, that is a huge job then

05:28:14Davide-NYCWhacha got cookin'?
05:28:15jhMikeSI'm gonna do separate digits for the sample rates and bit rates...too many now
05:28:25Davide-NYCI can do that
05:28:47Davide-NYCYou speak C, I don't.
05:28:54jhMikeSI'm not sure what I need atm...but the status bar is going to have to deal with real numbers
05:29:04jhMikeSI know that much
05:29:09Davide-NYClet me know what to do and I'll save you some time
05:29:33jhMikeSThanks. Right now I just want to see if it all even runs! :)(
05:30:13Davide-NYChey, you want the origian PSD file with all of the digits on separate layers?
05:30:43jhMikeSSure...I really need all the characters to be separate and I'll have it draw them like fonts
05:31:15jhMikeSI need to see what's being displayed overall though
05:31:42Davide-NYCthis will at least save you the hassle of cutting and cropping
05:32:12Davide-NYCcrap, they are greyscale
05:32:18Davide-NYC(the PSDs)
05:32:21jhMikeSNeed 0-9, k, M, WAV, WV. The last two can be the same I guess.

05:34:45Davide-NYCI think it's better of things stay put
05:34:51Davide-NYCbut many disagree
05:35:15Davide-NYCyes, blank in front, after the encoding type

09:36:47pondlifeWhen playing an M3U playlist, I'd like to be able to go from the WPS to the playlist.
09:37:08 Quit JdGordon ("Konversation terminated!")
09:37:12hcshold down select, choose playlist?
09:37:31pondlifeThanks
09:37:58pondlifeIt would be nice if there was a 3rd option on Follow Playlist to do this automatically
09:38:18pondlifeIt would be more intuiitive if select with Follow Playlist on did this anyway IMHO
09:39:01pondlifeThat way a fumbled double press of select wouldn't destroy the current playlist either
09:41:09vikI'm trying to write code using ACTION_ rather than BUTTON_ for a particular menu screen, but can't work out how to use it nicely; I've tried to use ACTION_KBD for easiness for the time being, but it doesn't work. Do I need to change a context or something?
09:42:03vikThink I just found part of my answer; the context, but where do I change it?
09:42:39vikah, would it be in get_action?
09:44:30vikWho needs people to actually answer your questions when you can do it yourself ?:)
09:44:47LinusNpondlife: so you want SELECT to go to the playlist viewer instead of the browser?
09:46:05LinusNthat would drive me nuts, as it would go to different places depending on if i played an m3u or not, yuck
09:46:19LinusNconsistency is good imho
09:46:33pondlifeMy problem is that it's very easy to lose your current playlist
09:46:39LinusNit is?
09:47:07pondlifeYes, press Select twice in a row, with Follow Playlist on
09:47:18LinusNwhy do you press select?
09:47:36pondlifeBecause I'm attempting to skip to the next track and missed
09:47:48pondlifeNormally
09:47:50LinusNand why dod you do it twice?
09:48:01pondlifeSame action of fumbling
09:48:17LinusNsounds like the problem is you and not rockbox
09:48:21pondlifeTrue
09:48:45pondlifeBut I've done it regularly enough and assume others may too. The H300 keypad isn't as nice as most others
09:49:10LinusNyou mistake the ff/rew buttons for the select button?
09:49:20pondlifeTry it
09:49:25pondlifeWith your eyes closedf
09:49:28vikis there a way to shorten the make process i.e. to only try to make plugins?
09:49:29pondlifeclosed
09:49:43bluebrotherpondlife, enable "warn on erasing dynamic playlist"
09:49:47LinusNpondlife: but they are differently shaped, aren't they?
09:50:10pondlifeYes, but my thumb naturally goes over the NAVI button as I find right.
09:50:13LinusNvik: no
09:50:17pondlifeJust a bad habit I guess
09:50:29pondlifebluebrother: Thanks, I didn't know about that

09:51:03pondlifebluebrother: Where is that option?
09:52:58scorchepondlife: just a guess, playlist options?
09:53:23scorcheand yeah...that was one of the many annoying things about the archos units IMO...hehe
09:54:00hcsok, I just made a patch that prevents the playback code from loading another track over the currently playing one, unless they are the same track (in case whole track can't fit, or for intialization)
09:54:16pondlifeWhere's playlist options then??
09:54:24 Join Paul_The_Nerd [0] (n=Llorean@cpe-70-112-165-230.austin.res.rr.com)
09:54:42pondlifeAh found it
09:55:06pondlifeNope that option doesn't help
09:55:17pondlifeIt still allows me to select a file from the tree
09:55:21pondlifeWithout warnin
09:55:22pondlifeg
09:55:23pondlife!
09:55:49scorchepondlife: well, Paul_The_Nerd has reported that it does not work for him...nice timing =)
09:58:26pondlifeHow about some virtual folders in the root of the file system - one for current playlist, one for tagcache, one for settings?
09:58:40pondlifeThat could improve consistency in all sorts of areas
09:59:25Paul_The_NerdWhy would a virtual "folder" for settings be consistent with viewing the filetree?
09:59:55pondlifeIt seems sensible if you put other virtual directories in.
10:00
10:00:10pondlifeI'm thinking aloud here, bear with me ;-)
10:00:15Paul_The_NerdAs it is, the menu is one button press away from anywhere in the filetree, though
10:00:26pondlifeWell that would be maintained, of course
10:00:49pondlifeI'm more concerned about the relationship between the tree/tagtree and current playlist
10:01:04Paul_The_NerdWhat relationship?
10:01:32Paul_The_NerdThere is none, at the moment. The playlist shows a list of filenames, TagTree is all about metadata, so they're barely connected, really.
10:01:43pondlifeThere isn't one, and it's too easy to destroy a playlist half way through by accidentally selecting in the tree
10:02:07Paul_The_NerdThat's because the warn-on-clear either isn't working, or isn't being consistent.
10:02:25Paul_The_NerdBut what does "Warning when resetting the playlist" have to do with virtual folders?
10:03:09pondlifeI'm just seeing if I can think up something that would make the warning unneccessary. Does this warning speak by the way?
10:03:18Paul_The_NerdI do not know
10:03:21markunpondlife: why not make a root menu with file browsing, settings etc instead of virtual dirs?
10:03:38Paul_The_NerdHow does adding these folders in any way make it safer for the playlists?
10:03:51 Quit hockyhair (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
10:04:15pondlifeI'm trying to see if the current playlist can be made more central in some way. Don't worry, I'll think some more before talking!
10:04:37 Quit ScoTTie ()
10:04:40pondlifeTo me the WPS is the level above the current playlist, the tree is something else
10:04:47pondlifeDoes that make any sense?
10:05:20Paul_The_NerdMaking it more central doesn't prevent it from being cleared though
10:05:26DarthShrineHmm, would anybody be able to add the keys for PluginTextEditor?
10:05:30pondlifeSo I was wondering if a relationship of the kind TREE > CURRENT PLAYLIST > WPS would be useful.
10:05:42Paul_The_NerdThe only way to do that would be to prevent users from being able to clear it without explicitly choosing "new playlist" and making all clicks insert rather than re-create.
10:06:02Paul_The_NerdBut one of the core ideas behind Rockbox is that it's based out of the filetree. The WPS is layered on top of it, not beneath it.
10:06:05pondlifeI'd like to press select on the WPS and be taken to the current playlist (if Follow Playlist is on), that would seem logical to me.
10:06:34pondlifeBut then I'd need a way to get to the tree.... hence my bizarre thoughts
10:06:56Paul_The_NerdMy not make "View Current Playlist" the bottom option in the context menu while in WPS?
10:07:00Paul_The_NerdThen it's very readily at hand.

10:08:13pondlifeIt just seemed logical to me that "Follow Playlist" should work differently. It's a bit flaky in ID3 view at the moment
10:08:26Paul_The_NerdID3 view is a bit flaky in relationship to playlists anyway
10:08:40pondlifeYes, that's what I'm trying to resolve (in my brain)
10:08:59 Join damaki__ [0] (n=Chocolat@ALille-253-1-40-118.w90-7.abo.wanadoo.fr)
10:09:08Paul_The_NerdThe problem is that playlists are almost entirely a file based operation
10:09:15pondlifeTREE and TAGTREE should be interchangeable, yes? Depends on how the user organised their music..
10:10:28pondlifeThere is always a current playlist during playback, right? It's either a playlist file, or generated at start of playback from a tree dir or tagcache query...
10:10:38Paul_The_NerdYeah
10:10:48Paul_The_NerdBut even when it's generated from a tagcache query, it's still just a list of filenames.
10:11:21pondlifeYes, but if Follow Playlist took you to the playlist view, we'd have a solution to the current problem.
10:11:38Paul_The_NerdIt would remove the entire purpose of that option.
10:11:49pondlife?
10:12:06Paul_The_NerdFollow Playlist takes you to where in the filetree the song you're listening to is, in file view mode, correct?
10:12:10pondlifeYes
10:12:15Paul_The_NerdSo you can theoretically easily add related songs to your playlist.
10:12:19pondlifeOK
10:12:22Paul_The_NerdYou can't add songs into your playlist from within the playlist.
10:12:28pondlifeNo
10:12:46Paul_The_NerdAnd in TagCache a song can show up *many* times in the structure
10:13:03Paul_The_NerdOnce under all tracks, once under Albums, once under Artists/Albums, once under Genres/Artists/Albums, etc.
10:13:12Paul_The_NerdHow would Follow Playlist choose which of those to highlight?
10:13:19pondlifeIt can't
10:13:36vikwhat information does the result from the menu_run function convey?
10:13:47Paul_The_NerdIndeed. As an option it should either be disabled during TagCache, or you should be able to specify custom search parameters for it.
10:13:51Paul_The_NerdIn the tagnavi.config
10:14:15Paul_The_NerdThat way you could specify in advance that any time you're following playlist you want Artist\Tracks as your organizational tree.
10:14:31pondlifeIf Follow Playlist went to the playlist, then left/back in playlist view cou,ld take the user back to the tree (selected file) or tagcache (root)..
10:14:45pondlifePaul_The_Nerd: You type too fast..!! ;-)
10:15:08pondlifeI don't like the idea of having to edit tagnavi.config for something like this
10:15:17lexwhat's new in the new 5g? :o
10:15:32Paul_The_Nerdpondlife: It could easily default to \Genre\Artist\Album\Track view
10:15:40pondlifeYes, or that
10:15:46Paul_The_NerdSo when you were following playlist, you see the contents of the current album, with currently playing highlighted.
10:16:03Paul_The_NerdBut I think allowing users to modify the parameters is essential for tagcache, since they may not even *have* that as a sort in the tagnavi they use
10:16:09pondlifeThat's what happens at the moment isn't it (in tree view)
10:16:17pondlifeI don't have that option in my tagnavi
10:16:37Paul_The_NerdIn tree view, it depends entirely on how you have your files organized
10:16:47Paul_The_NerdSome people dump an entire genre in one folder
10:16:54Paul_The_NerdThose people would probably prefer \Genre\Tracks in tagnavi
10:17:09pondlifeI don't see why an option called "Follow Playlist" should take the user out of the playlist so easily
10:17:18pondlifeIt's not a tagtree problem really
10:17:34pondlifeI just misunderstood what it did.
10:17:35Paul_The_NerdFollow Playlist means "Show me where the playlist is pointing to on the disk"
10:17:49Paul_The_NerdThe filetree is following the playlist.
10:17:50vikI've made a working alarm plugin; anyone want to test?
10:18:06pondlifeNever mind
10:18:18Paul_The_NerdThere should be an easy/quick way to get to the playlist though, but I don't think "Removing quick access to the tree" is the best solution.
10:18:38pondlifeI will modify my build to swap the context menu option and select action. Select > playlist, Context > Find file in tree
10:18:49pondlifeThat would be ideal for me, but probably not for others
10:19:12Paul_The_NerdAnd just getting rid of your context menu?
10:20:15pondlifeMaking it harder to leave playlist when I don't have eyes on the player
10:20:25pondlifeAnd am ham-fisted
10:20:48pondlifeObviouosly, the warning needs fixing first
10:21:05pondlifeI wish I could type in the morning...
10:21:39pondlifeContext menus and long presses in general are harder when driving
10:22:22pondlifeOr when player is in a rucksack
10:22:38pondlifeMust get a remote I guess!

10:56:23meniskwin modems are almost imposible
10:56:52meniskwhat do u mean kalthare
10:57:01DarthShrineI don't think anybody uses dialup.
10:57:17linuxstbKalthare: I've downloaded your firmware and had a quick look. The image looks very slightly different to previous versions, so I think ipod_fw will need a little tweaking. But I haven't had time to do it yet.
10:57:17meniskMy dad does, :P
10:57:29meniskok
10:57:30linuxstbKalthare: Did you use ipodpatcher to extract it, or dd under Linux?
10:57:39Kaltharelinuxstb: dd.
10:58:15scorcheiirc, he couldnt use ipodpatcher...that was part of the issue
10:58:19linuxstbAh, OK. Could you dump your MBR? i.e. "dd if=/dev/sda of=mbr-5.5g.bin count=1" I think ipodpatcher fails to recognise it as an ipod.
10:58:22meniski orginally did my rockbox boot throught the linux boot loader
10:58:42meniskits alot easier
10:58:49KalthareActually, I didn't try ipodpatcher. I use Linux primarily.
10:59:06linuxstbYour MBR will tell me if ipodpatcher will work.
10:59:09KalthareYeah, I grabbed the MBR.. gimme a bit to put it up.

11:02:00Paul_The_Nerdmenisk: It might be, but the only benefit is it getting hot, maybe causing damage to the battery, and if not still running the battery down more quickly.
11:02:08scorchewhat do you think cpu boosting is? (kinda)....problem is, you get a great battery drain...ipods are not the same as computers

11:02:38meniskhow much can i safely overclock and how do i do it
11:02:44scorcheyou dont
11:02:45KalthareOne thing I noticed is that ipod_fw decided that apple_sw_5g_rcsc.bin has a slightly different checksum than the partition I extracted it from.

11:03:51markunmenisk: better to optimize the code
11:04:00meniskprobably
11:04:14Paul_The_Nerdmenisk: A better solution would be to actually fix the problem rather than simply risking damage to the core just in the hope that an extra 10mhz will solve a problem is almost definitely won't.
11:04:15amiconnmenisk: PP5020 (and afawk PP5021) are specced 80MHz, PP5002 is specced 90MHz, and PP5022 is specced 100MHz
11:04:19scorcheno...not probably....*is*
11:04:39linuxstbKalthare: I would expect that. The firmware images are stored at different offsets in the partition compared to previous versions, so ipod_fw is probably calculating the checksum on the wrong data. But I need to investigate a little more.
11:04:41amiconnExceeding that clock (or even getting too close) causes instabilities iirc
11:04:43meniskor i could cut a hole in the back of my ipod and hook up a fan
11:04:48meniskbut i like option 1

11:18:23KalthareI'm gonna head to bed. Seeyas.
11:18:30markunKalthare: night
11:18:39hcsit seems that the playback code only checks for this possibility when seeking backwards, but if you only seek forwards the loading can overtake the playback
11:19:27markunlinuxstb: btw, a guy in the google groups told me to check out the rockbox project ;)
11:19:36 Quit Kalthare ("Download Gaim: http://gaim.sourceforge.net/")
11:19:46hcsI think that always checking for this slows things down unnecessarily (the whole file has to be rebuffered), it seems a better solution would be to not overwrite the currently playing file
11:20:15meniskim a n00b, cant help u hcs
11:20:18hcsI have a patch now that does this, but I hoped I could talk to someone before just putting it up on flyspray
11:20:36Paul_The_NerdWhat did you want to talk to someone about, exactly?
11:20:38markunmenisk: don't think he's asking you..
11:20:44linuxstbhcs: I saw your question earlier - seek_buffer() and advance_buffer() are completely different functions. seek_buffer() basically tells the playback code that you don't care about what's in the buffer at the moment, and want to start processing the data from a different part of the file. advance_buffer() tells the playback code that you have finished with that part of the file and want to move on to the next.
11:20:44Paul_The_NerdThe whole point of flyspray is so that people can comment on patches...
11:21:01meniskmarkun, i know
11:21:06meniski just like talking
11:21:06hcsPaul_The_Nerd: ok, up it goes
11:21:11markunok
11:22:10hcslinuxstb: the trouble is when you seek back the buffer is checked, but when you advance from there the writing can overtake the reading
11:22:41linuxstbhcs: You should never seek during normal playback.
11:23:00hcsthese are abnormal files I'm playing
11:23:05meniskis there a way to stop my ipod booting to disk mode when i plug my charger in becuse i cant charge in rockbox while i listen to music
11:23:11hcsADX requires a seek back upon loop
11:23:25linuxstbHow big are ADX files?
11:23:43hcsvery much depends, 500 KB to 10 MB
11:25:22linuxstbYou can't change the playback code so that loading never overwrites the current track. That's both a waste of memory, and will break playback of files larger than the buffer.
11:25:52linuxstbBy calling advance_buffer(), you're giving the playback code the right to overwrite the memory.
11:26:00 Quit menisk ("Leaving")
11:26:48hcsThe exception is when you're reading and writing the same track number, otherwise playback plain doesn't start.
11:27:06hcsany idea of another solution?
11:27:33linuxstbThe problem is that Rockbox's playback code is designed around streaming codecs - i.e. codecs where you decode the file from beginning to end and never need to seek back unless the user requests it.

11:30:47hcsis there a way I can simulate a user requested seek?
11:30:57hcsfrom within the codec api
11:31:01linuxstbhcs: playback.c shouldn't overwrite any data accessed via request_buffer().
11:31:07linuxstbWhat do you mean?
11:31:10baerman714i have a question from the other day
11:31:28hcsthe seek back in the file is equivalent to the user seeking back there, then playback just resuming
11:31:38baerman714i was told that ipods cant ring home if they're stolen is that true
11:31:40hcsso if I could do it the same way...
11:31:58linuxstbhcs: Yes, that's implemented within the codec itself. The playback code just gives the codec a message telling it to perform that seek.
11:32:11baerman714...
11:32:40baerman714can someone answer my question
11:32:49linuxstbbaerman714: Yes, ipods can't ring home.

11:33:19hcsand my empirical evidence suggests otherwise
11:33:21Paul_The_NerdThat was far too positive of a response.
11:33:45linuxstbIt's true though - ipods can't operate a telephone.
11:34:09linuxstbNo fingers...
11:34:15Paul_The_NerdAt least until Griffen iDialer is release, of course.

11:35:56scorchePaul_The_Nerd: he already stole one ;)
11:37:22scorcheactually, i take that back...i dont like the smile with that comment
11:38:47hcsanyway, I'll put the patch up as it prevents my ADX patch from breaking under stress, I think it is entirely reasonable to not overwrite the currently playing track unless necessary with as much memory as I have available, but I understand that other devices don't have as much so maybe an additional configuration is needed, but I do think it should be possible
11:39:14Paul_The_NerdMaybe some sort of flag that marks a codec as not-streaming
11:39:39hcsa flag on the track, maybe
11:40:17linuxstbhcs: It's nothing to do with the amount of memory. As I said, if you call advance_buffer(), you're telling the playback code to overwrite the data you're advancing over. Which means it can buffer more data at the next spin-up, meaning less spin-ups and better battery life.
11:40:21Paul_The_NerdWouldn't that require nonstandard files then, or is there some way to tell in advance about the file?
11:41:21hcslinuxstb: right, and I don't mind that, but when I do a seek_buffer I expect everything past the offset I seek to to be available to future advance_buffers
11:41:45linuxstbhcs: Then you need a different API function - one that doesn't exist.
11:42:05hcswhat's the point of seek_buffer?
11:42:45linuxstbFor when the user seeks, meaning the codec needs to start decoding again from a different point in the file.
11:42:53hcshmm, if I do a seek_complete after I've done seek_buffer, will that rebuffer the file?
11:43:07linuxstbI can't remember what that function does...
11:43:13hcsthat's what I'm trying to accomplish
11:43:34hcsthe codec does need to start decoding from an earlier point in the file
11:44:02linuxstbRockbox's buffering strategy is based on the assumption that seeking backwards is a rare operation - so it doesn't keep that data available.
11:44:22hcsyeah, but when you do seek it is reloaded, I see that
11:45:03hcsseek_complete only unpauses
11:46:16linuxstbYes, seek_complete() is used to notify the playback code that the codec has finished performing a user-requested seek.
11:46:32linuxstbSo in your case, you shouldn't call it.
11:46:47hcswhat would you say to a new command to codec_configure which sets a flag requesting that the file not be overwritten?
11:49:00linuxstbI'm not sure. It would be bad for battery life if it's used more than needed.
11:49:24linuxstbIt will also limit you to playing files smaller than the audio buffer.
11:49:30hcswell, the only alternative I have now is a bunch of buffer thrashing, which ain't good either
11:49:52hcsI have an exception for files too large to fit in the buffer already
11:50:01amiconnnon-streaming codecs more or less require the whole file in the buffer
11:50:10linuxstbAn alternative would be to let your codec manage the buffer directly.
11:50:47hcsis that possible?
11:50:55linuxstbIf someone implemented it...
11:51:04hcsah
11:51:45linuxstbHave you looked at how complex implementing your "do not overwrite file" flag would be?
11:52:04linuxstb(I don't know the internals of the playback code at all...)
11:52:12hcsI have the "do not overwrite" functionality in place already, and I think I can see where to put the flag
11:54:52linuxstbThen I would say write a patch and hope that someone who knows playback.c is willing to review and commit it. The more I think about it, the more I think it's a nice solution.
11:55:11hcsok
11:56:26amiconnIt would also help mod playback
11:56:29linuxstbIt will also mean you don't need to constantly call the codec API to get the data. You just need two calls to read_buffer() at the start of your codec (to take care of buffer wraparound) and you can then just access the memory directly.
11:56:56hcsyeah, that would be a nice side effect
11:57:05amiconnThe existing patch only allows mods up to ~400KB, i.e. what fits in the remaining codec buffer
11:57:10hcsassuming, again, that it fits in memory

12:00
12:01:43linuxstbAn alternative could be a new (and I assume simple to implement) function called something like get_file_buffer - which returns two pointers (and two sizes) to the areas of the buffer containing the current track. That wouldn't need any other changes to the playback code.

12:04:51Paul_The_NerdYou don't advance at all until you're done with playback, and use those pointers instead, right?
12:04:51linuxstbOr in fact, a "get_file_buffer()" function could possibly even shuffle the contents of the ringbuffer around to give you the data in a contiguous block. The only problem is if the whole file isn't buffered...
12:05:04linuxstbPaul_The_Nerd: Exactly.
12:05:37Paul_The_NerdA "requires whole file to be buffered" flag might be necessary too then, for any file that could potentially require tricks like that.

12:09:09hcsI'm trying to remember why this isn't a bigger problem than it is...
12:09:39hcshmm
12:10:33amiconnThe loader never overwrites data not yet flagged for overwriting, i.e. "consumed"

12:11:18hcsamiconn: yeah, the problem occurs when we want to consume repeatedly
12:12:39linuxstbI'm just thinking that the ideal situation is if a non-streaming codec is simply given a single pointer to a buffer containing the whole file.

12:13:46hcsmore ideal than what I'm proposing
12:13:49Paul_The_NerdIt makes sense to me at least.
12:14:09Paul_The_NerdSo non-streaming codecs would require insuring the whole file is buffered, then?
12:14:22linuxstbYes, that's the complex part...
12:14:43Paul_The_NerdThe buffering code knows how many files are buffered, and what their codec is though, right?
12:14:46linuxstbe.g. at the time of the last buffer fill, there may not be enough space to buffer the entire file.
12:15:01hcswell, with my method, if it takes all of memory to buffer one track, you only have to worry about the file interacting with itself
12:15:11Paul_The_NerdIf the last file in the buffer is a non-streaming codec, and it can't fill, it doesn't load it, and waits for the next re-buffer?

12:17:45hcsif we have a mode where "advance_buffer" doesn't decrement filebufused, and it just takes out the whole file from the count at the end of the track
12:19:30linuxstbI don't like the idea of changing the behaviour of the existing (stream-oriented) API functions. I would prefer new functions.
12:20:21hcsyeah, I was considering a different function (preserve_advance_buffer), but I didn't know how we could ensure it was the only one used on the file so we can adjust things properly at the end of the track
12:20:36hcsI guess it could keep a separate count
12:21:21mirak11linuxstb I am thinking of trying ffmpeg mpeg2. I have seen some stats where ffmpeg is faster
12:21:27linuxstbI'm just not sure why you want to tell the codec API to advance file pointers. You can just keep track of them internally within your codec.
12:21:33Paul_The_NerdDo you really need to "ensure" that it is? I mean, documenting that both shouldn't be, and then making sure not to do it should be enough, right?
12:21:59hcsthings need to be pretty idiot proof for this idiot
12:22:03linuxstbmirak11: I saw that. Feel free to try, but extracting codecs from ffmpeg isn't fun. What CPU were those benchmarks on?
12:22:47Paul_The_NerdIdiot-proofing adds overhead, though, which isn't a good thing.
12:22:48hcslinuxstb: I'd just prefer to have the API handle buffering
12:23:50hcseither handle it correctly or not at all

12:25:36Paul_The_NerdThe question is, what's the proper concept of "properly"
12:25:44hcsindeed
12:26:00Paul_The_NerdWith streaming data, clearly all you need is a certain sized sample of the data which can be fed into the codec sequentially.
12:27:32Paul_The_NerdBut with anything that has looping, or otherwise require re-processing of earlier data, you could easily argue that the minimum unit is either from the first point a loop starts, or the whole song. In which case allowing access to it isn't such an improper thing, except in the context that you have direct access to the buffer, right?
12:27:41linuxstbDoes ADX require random access to the file, or is it basically a streaming format, but with looping meaning that sections need to be "consumed" more than once?
12:27:58hcslinuxstb: the latter, it is essentially streaming
12:28:34linuxstbIn which case, I think we've now got a third type of codec - streaming, random-access, and "streaming-with-loops"
12:28:53hcshow are random access codecs handled?
12:28:59linuxstbThey're not...
12:28:59Paul_The_NerdThey aren't, yet.
12:29:13linuxstbI think the codec copies the entire file to a local buffer - limited to 51KB.
12:29:20linuxstb512KB
12:29:35hcsmmm
12:30:18linuxstbThe difference between random-access and streaming-with-loops is that a random-access codec needs the entire file to be buffered before playback can start. I'm assuming that's not the case for ADX.
12:30:41hcsright
12:31:09hcsbut its a shame to rebuffer the whole file again on a loop, overwriting whatever was loaded next
12:31:29Paul_The_NerdIs there any way to tell in advance what will be looping, without decoding?
12:31:48hcsADX files have a looping flag
12:32:15hcsI read that header already for length info
12:32:34 Quit damaki__ (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
12:32:51Paul_The_NerdI mean, depending on how complex the looping is, could you keep the loop itself around somewhere else? A static buffer added onto the codec?
12:33:16hcsthe loop is not unusually the whole file, or very near it
12:33:55Paul_The_NerdIn which case streaming or not is mostly irrelevant since you may as well keep the whole file buffered 'till your done with it, right?
12:34:07hcsthat's the idea
12:34:14hcsthus the "do not overwrite" flag

12:36:02hcsI have to get some sleep, hope we can get somewhere with this
12:36:06Paul_The_NerdThe question is whether streaming-with-looping codecs need to be treated differently than random access, and if so, how.
12:37:02hcsI would argue that they should be treated like trivial preloading, if you know you'll be playing the same section of the file again later there's no point in letting it out of the buffer
12:39:35linuxstbI think for ADX, the "don't unbuffer file after use" flag will work. But we still a proper solution for random-access codecs.
12:40:22hcsnuke the buffer, load the random access file into it from the beginning, shazam
12:40:58Paul_The_NerdThat means a rebuffer for every random access file
12:41:06hcsI'll try to have the flag patch up sometime later today, good night
12:41:21hcs(the shazam sort of indicated a lack of seriousness)
12:41:35Paul_The_NerdI still like the whole "return pointers to the data" combined with some sort of mandatory "load the whole file" flag for those codecs.
12:54:43 Quit damaki (Remote closed the connection)
12:55:36amiconnhcs: Why don't you just not use advance_buffer() until you're sure that you don't need to go back anymore?
12:58:50linuxstbOne problem is (I think) the buffer wraparound. The codec API doesn't currently allow you to access data at the start of the buffer without advancing past the end of the buffer.

13:23:36pondlifeYep
13:23:38pondlife:-)
13:23:44pondlifeIt deserved closing twice
13:23:57linuxstb:) Flyspray shouldn't allow it though...
13:24:02pondlifeDoes that require a bug report?
13:24:17linuxstbYes, on flyspray's flyspray I would guess...
13:24:17pondlifeI've seen it happen before
13:25:27pondlifeThat reminds me. When you're watching a task on Flyspray, it allows all others to see your e-mail address in the notifications.
13:25:47pondlifeCould that be tightened up in some way I wonder?
13:25:51linuxstbYes, I've noticed that. I don't care though, my email address isn't secret.
13:26:01pondlifeNore is mine, but it would be nice
13:26:29linuxstbThe email function could just be changed to blind-copy everyone.

13:32:49linuxstbi.e. what needs doing?
13:32:51tucozCould we get some flashing lights telling users not to add support questions in the tracker
13:33:37tucozThe current rate of open/close make the tracker harder to use, as a lot of the actual additions to the tracker could be regarded as spam
13:34:22tucozlinuxstb, I just want that the users are fully aware that _if_ they add a support question, it will be closed without further notice.
13:34:41tucoz...and not regarded at all
13:34:42linuxstbMaybe the menu on the left-side of the Rockbox website needs clarifying. Thinking as a user, if you visit the website because you have a problem with Rockbox, it's not that unreasonable to click on the "bug reports" link...
13:34:56tucozI know
13:35:15linuxstbMaybe change "forums" to "support forums"?
13:35:23tucozbut if you enter the bug report system, you should be told the options for support
13:35:29tucozlinuxstb, good idea
13:36:32linuxstbI agree - my suggestion the other day was for a big link to a "how to report bugs" wiki page. The first thing on that page would be to tell users of the support options.
13:36:43 Quit damaki (Remote closed the connection)
13:36:45tucozlinuxstb, I see you, raenye, bluebrother,nls and some others make a splendid job closing invalid requests. But, don't you find it tiresome to always have to tell the reporter where the actual support machinery is?
13:37:59tucozAnd those tasks "hide" the real bugs, due to the massive amount of open/close each day
13:38:15linuxstbI agree...
13:39:02tucozif you're one day off, you have 100 new mails from flyspray, where a lot is junk
13:39:49linuxstbI agree :)
13:40:19tucozjust wanted to 'bump' the issue
13:41:37aliaskWould there be some way to remove notification of the "changed" and "related task" and "dependancy" flyspray notifications? That would reduce the bulk quite a bit.
13:44:45linuxstbYou could always filter them in your email client.
13:45:40linuxstbtucoz: Do you agree with the solution of having a "How to submit a bug report" wiki page, and putting a highly visible link to that in flyspray?
13:46:11linuxstbe.g. something like "Read this before adding a new bug report"
13:48:24tucozThat in addition to "DO NOT ADD SUPPORT QUESTIONS HERE. THEY WILL BE DELETED"

13:50:25tucozBut your idea of calling the forums, support forums might lower the traffic somewhat
13:50:32linuxstbI'm not sure we need to go that far within flyspray itself.
13:51:47tucozmaybe not, but somewhere on the front page should tell people where to go for support. And that could be solved by a wiki page as you described.
13:52:09linuxstbMaybe the main menu on the Rockbox page could be split into sections - something like Downloads (download, daily builds, cvs builds), Support (mailing list, forums, irc), Documentation (manual, wiki) and Flyspray (bug reports, feature requests, patches)

15:37:55markunZagor: there are some problems with paypal and scummvm. Maybe it applies to rockbox too: "Paypal has informed as that all software capable of playing a game on a system 'it was not sold for' is in violation of their AUP"
15:38:15Zagorwtf??

15:40:35Zagorhowever from the wording on the scummvm page, I don't think this weird rule applies to rockbox. we don't run other people's games, only our own.
15:41:11daurnZagor: emulators
15:41:18Zagorduh, right
15:41:58markunmaybe we should make the plugins '2nd party applications'

15:43:52Zagorcrap. maybe we should simply set up a CC payment site and deal with donations ourselves.
15:44:35daurnZagor: people who use rockbox would rarely have credit cards
15:44:46daurn- i use paypal becasue they can direct debit from my bank account
15:45:12Zagorwhy would rockbox users be less inclined to have credit cards than other people?
15:45:43markun"You may not use PayPal to sell.." doesn't say anything about donations
15:45:57daurncause users would be mainly young or knowledgeable enough to avoid the high interest rates
15:47:00Zagordaurn: I have another image of the average rockbox user. but anyway, I'd hate to scrap donations altogether.
15:47:05markundaurn: don't they need a creadit card for paypal anyway?
15:47:40daurnmarkun: not in japan, usa, australia or most of europe
15:48:50linuxstbmarkun: I agree it's odd - the scummvm.org site talks about donations, but the paypal AUL talks about selling...
15:49:29daurnwell, the 3 paypal AUP clauses:
15:49:47daurn"Devices that allow the play of import games on a domestic system are potentially infringing upon Sony's (SCEA) copyrights."
15:49:55daurn"Software emulators that play Nintendo games without Nintendo hardware are infringing items"
15:50:01idnarhaving a credit card doesn't imply paying interest
15:50:05daurn* but according to Kaminari ScummVM supports the MM NES version.
15:50:14daurn"Devices that allow the play of import games on a domestic system are infringing upon Sega's copyrights"
15:50:25daurn* but according to Kaminari ScummVM supports the MI Sega version.

16:27:13amiconnZagor: ???
16:27:25amiconn2005-12-06: Unicode support!
16:27:34amiconn...from the frontpage...
16:27:35webguest22Hellworm: all unicode related functions are in rbunicode. Which number do you need? The unicode code of the char?
16:27:37Zagorso that's when I wasn't looking :-)
16:27:49Zagorhehe, I'm totally disconnected. never ask me anything :-)
16:27:55Hellworm:)
16:28:18amiconnZagor: You don't even read the frontpage?
16:28:33Zagoramiconn: for every single question, no. do you?
16:28:35webguest22Hellworm: then I'd use something like utf8LEdecode or utf8BEdecode
16:29:13amiconnNo, but (1) unicode was a big step forward. And it's in for more than 9 months now. Don't tell me you didn't read the frontpage for that long...
16:29:16HellwormZagor: btw what sould I pass to the "w" and "h" in lcd_getstringsize?
16:29:31PaulJamSlasheri: there seems to be a bug with importong of the tagcache changelog: if the file contains a line that is too long (i think longer than 512 characters) it stops to import and everything that comes after that line doesn't get imported.
16:29:35amiconnHellworm: int*
16:29:43ZagorHellworm: pointers to the int variables where you want the width and height
16:30:44 Quit bbroke ("Chatzilla 0.9.75 [Firefox 1.5.0.7/2006090918]")
16:30:49Hellwormso the function returns the number of letters that fit in?
16:31:00Zagorno, the size of the string
16:31:04markunHellworm: you can also pass a NULL if you are not interested in the value
16:32:02ZagorHellworm: since the fonts are (can be) proportional, different number of characters will fit depending on which characters are used. more "l" than "m" fit.
16:33:11PaulJamSlasheri: the reason why i get such long lines in the tagcache changelog is propably also a bug: my files have an empty composer tag and in the changelog the filepath is shown as the composer tagvalue.
16:34:21HellwormZagor: So the function does return the lenght of the string I can fit in?
16:34:45Zagorno, it returns the width and height of the string you supply in the first parameter
16:35:12Zagori.e it answers the question: "how many pixels wide will the string 'foobar' be?"

16:40:45HellwormI know, and a second one is in work. But I try to make a better one

Eg fonts that I dont use, some WPSs, languages other than english etc? Or could this cause problems? I'm only checking because i'm about to use the bootloader 7 to flash over the iriver firmware and wanted to make .rockbox a bit more compact for me.
21:26:55linuxstb_scramble.c contains very minimal code to create a firmware partition consisting of only the Rockbox bootloader.
21:27:03KalthareOh, hm. Okay.

21:32:38linuxstb_But I'm assuming it means it doesn't like the format of the boot partition.
21:32:46KalthareIt's not the exact message −− gimme a sec and I'll get the real one. But yeah.
21:33:23linuxstb_Try using tools/scramble - i.e. scramble -ipod5g bootloader.bin bootloader.img and then "dd" bootloader.img to your ipod.
21:33:46KalthareOkay,
21:37:24KalthareYeah, it didn't like that. "Connect to your computer. Use iTunes to restore."

22:01:42markunmirak: will you also try ffmpeg's mpeg-4 decoder?
22:02:37mirakmarkun: no :)
22:02:49markunto both questions?
22:03:04mirakmarkun: I wa wondering ffmpeg could be used as a base to rockbox
22:03:16mirakor if that's technically impossible
22:03:43linuxstb_Kalthare: I'm not confident, but can you try this image? http://www.davechapman.f2s.com/rockbox/5.5g.img
22:04:00mirakmarkun: I will never touch wma lol
22:04:28mirakmarkun: as for mpeg4 if I manage easily to implement mpeg2, I think mpeg4 wouldn't be very hard.
22:05:00Kaltharelinuxstb_: Didn't work.
22:05:02linuxstb_Why would you want to use ffmpeg in Rockbox?
22:05:03mirakmarkun: I think the hardest of all was trying to implement xvid. It was like hell
22:05:20linuxstb_Kalthare: Exactly the same error?
22:05:21miraklinuxstb: well that's a codec library
22:05:30linuxstb_We've already got codecs...
22:05:36Kaltharelinuxstb_: Yeah.
22:05:43miraklinuxstb: many of them come from ffmpeg
22:05:48mirakno ?
22:06:37linuxstb_No. Only the FLAC and Shorten codecs are from ffmpeg.
22:06:47miraklinuxstb: I was just wondering. Anyway it would be hard to use I guess, because you would still need a mecanism to load individidual codecs object code
22:07:00KalthareI wish I knew what this crap between 0x4808 and 0x5000 is.
22:07:03miraknot object, binary
22:08:01linuxstb_Kalthare: I think it's just crap... The 5g firmware has the same, but it's between 0x4400 and 0x4600. Just leaving that as zeros works for the 5g.
22:08:16linuxstb_(and the earlier ipods IIRC)
22:08:37Kaltharelinuxstb_: Okay, I'll zero it and see what happens
22:10:48linuxstb_mirak: I just think ffmpeg is overkill for our needs. Most of the codecs are floating-point and there is also a lot of malloc everywhere.
22:11:26mirakbut it handles containers and such
22:11:33linuxstb_Kalthare: You could try inserting bootloader-video.bin at offset 0x5000 in your original image, and then updating the checksum.
22:11:42mirakbut for sure it couldn't be used as it at all.
22:12:51markunlinuxstb_: the SoC guy who wanted to work on a vorbis encoder also started submitting stuff a week ago

22:15:30mirakof coding another encoder. Was it bad ?
22:15:35Kaltharelinuxstb_: If I give the original osos to ipod_fw as the fw_file, it should calculate the checksum the same way, shouldn't it?
22:15:35mirakbad licence ?
