01:19:28MagusGholy crap
01:19:32MagusGim in love with rockbox
01:19:33barrywardelljust if it actually works. the backlight button code has been moved
01:19:39barrywardellso check they work

01:20:30barrywardelland power and usb
01:20:37barrywardellthink that's it
01:20:44scorcheactually, i take that back...apparently, VMware decided to not like me
01:20:48*scorche re-installs
01:20:50MagusGis there any detriment to SQ in transcoding from ogg q9 to a lower bitrate?
01:21:13barrywardellwhat ipod do you have?
01:21:22MagusGwho?
01:21:27barrywardellscorche
01:22:04scorchenano
01:22:18barrywardellcool
01:22:51barrywardellhopefully all those things i mentioned will work the exact same as before!
01:22:52MagusGdamn, now i want an 8gb nano
01:23:08scorcheMagusG: doesnt work with rockbox yet
01:23:16MagusGah
01:23:17MagusGwell
01:23:25MagusGthen i want my current ipod modded to 8gb
01:23:29MagusG:P
01:24:08midkayMagusG: at your sound quality question, absolutely.
01:24:21MagusGi mean, i know its gonna sound like a lower bitrate..
01:24:27midkaywhen you converted from a CD or whatever to ogg, you lost some quality.. going down from there will lose even more.
01:24:32MagusGyeah
01:24:38MagusGbut i mean, is it gonna be worse than say
01:24:43midkayyeah, but you've already lost some.. it's compressing compression.
01:25:07MagusGif i were to take the original and encode it to the lower bitrate ogg
01:25:11midkayi'd say re-rip if you have the option or work off lossless files..
01:25:19MagusGcompared to transcoding from the ogg q9
01:25:28midkayit would be worse than re-ripping, right.
01:25:36MagusGok
01:25:58midkayripping from cd (100% quality) to e.g. 128k mp3, let's say that brings it to 50% quality..
01:26:01scorcheit doesnt just "take out the same areas" as i have seen some people compare it to
01:26:19midkaybut ripping from cd (100%) -> 320k mp3 (say 90%) and then down to 128k would be like 40% or something.. if that makes sense.
01:26:30MagusGi mean, i have most of my collection archived in FLAC, but burned to DVDs
01:26:45MagusG99% of the stuff on my hdd is ogg q9
01:26:55 Quit lightyear (Remote closed the connection)
01:27:01midkaythat's the best way to deal with it, bring it all back down from the source material.
01:27:07MagusGi agree
01:27:34SoapNot only is it worse than reripping, but an ogg ->mp3 conversion will sound worse than the lower of the two bitrates. Often much worse. You get native ogg artifacts + native mp3 ones + the funky gunk that only a double lossy can do.
01:27:56MagusGim thinking q9 > q6 or q5
01:28:07MagusGshouldnt be terrible eh?
01:28:23Soapwon't be great.
01:28:52Rob2222may i ask an off topic question?
01:29:03SoapFWIW, bit for bit mp3 playback gives you better battery life than ogg playback at this moment.
01:29:35Rob2222I went off of the US Postal service web site. <= what does that mean? i cant translate it anyhow ...
01:29:37midkayRob2222: yes, we grant you permission.. good thing you asked, after all, asking off topic questions without asking to ask them is a punishable crime here!
01:29:38midkay:)
01:29:45Rob2222lol
01:29:47Rob2222:)
01:29:53barrywardellis it not possible to convert ogg to a lower bitrate without recompressing?
01:30:04Rob2222i just down know who to ask atm
01:30:23barrywardellor am i just making that up?
01:30:23Rob2222"I went off of the" <=?
01:30:31Soapbarrywardell - I think only one kind of ogg can be bitstripped.

01:31:22 Quit spiorf (Read error: 60 (Operation timed out))
01:31:49Rob2222well.
01:32:10midkaybarrywardell: huh? of course you can convert as you wish.
01:32:29midkaybut it's just like blurring a blurred picture, after doing that a few times it's unrecognizable :)
01:33:05barrywardelli mean you can convert to a lower bitrate and the result is as if you created the lower bitrate file from the original source audio
01:33:37midkayyou can't compress the compressed version and have the same effect, no.
01:33:43Soapmidkay - barrywardell was asking if you can't strip a high bitrate ogg of the less-essential bits to make it a lower bitrate one. some codecs can do that, I can't remember which.
01:33:49barrywardellhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitrate_peeling
01:34:01barrywardellah, i'm not crazy
01:34:04midkaywhere was that even suggestied? :o
01:34:14barrywardellbut it only exists in theory
01:36:15midkayah, i see what you mean, the wording of your question.. i assumed you meant like "without losing quality".
01:36:38barrywardelli was referring to MagusG's question

01:46:33barrywardellthat's the nano build, yeah?
01:46:37scorcheyup
01:47:16scorcheare you able to build it?
01:47:32barrywardelli think so
01:47:37barrywardelltrying again now
01:47:45barrywardellwhere is it getting stuck?
01:48:19scorchepoints to plugin.o.....2 undefined references to 'wheel_status' and 'wheel_send_events'
01:48:51midkaysounds like you've got some old source..
01:48:55midkaythat was committed a few days ago.
01:49:02scorchei just updated
01:49:08barrywardellno, i moved that into the target tree
01:49:21scorcheand he...yeah
01:49:27barrywardelli'll need to fix that
01:49:33midkaygenius, scorche.
01:49:46XavierGrbarrywardell: how is battery time on H10 with rockbox?
01:49:47*scorche salutes midkay
01:50:05scorche....why did i try to auto-complete "salutes"?
01:50:16barrywardellXavierGr: I set mine playing and left it alone and it lasted about 8 hours
01:50:20barrywardellgive or take
01:50:30XavierGrand with OF?
01:50:39barrywardelldunno
01:50:56XavierGrjust to know if battery time is better or worse
01:51:05barrywardellworse, I would imagine
01:51:18habanaIs there someone skilled in sansa port ?
01:51:20barrywardelli think the OF is quoted as 16
01:51:21XavierGrwith H100 and H300 rockbox woops iriver's ass on the battery aspect
01:51:26habanai'd like to help but dont understand what need to be done
01:51:37barrywardellbut probably that's a bit optimistic
01:51:46XavierGrbut I think that H10 has the same problem with iPods
01:52:06scorchebarrywardell: are you going to fix it now, or add it to the list of fixes?...i need to be somewhere soon
01:52:10barrywardellyes, and will benefit from a lot of the improvements the ipods get
01:52:20barrywardellscorche: not right now
01:52:24scorchealright
01:52:28scorchei will test later then
01:52:33barrywardellthanks for testing
01:52:49XavierGrsomeone mentioned about disk idling on portaplayer
01:52:56XavierGrthat was a major issue on iriver
01:53:12XavierGron rockbox disk power off is off by default
01:53:27XavierGrso we were having less battery time on H100
01:53:54XavierGrmaybe there is somthing similar on H10, iPods too
01:54:02XavierGrbut noone knows for sure
01:54:12barrywardellthe H10 disk sounds like it spins itself down after about 5 seconds
01:54:21XavierGryeah that was the case with H100
01:54:24barrywardellit looks like a hardware thing
01:54:28XavierGrbut still the current is there
01:54:45Soapwhat is the advantage of moving the ipods to the target tree? </noob>
01:54:51XavierGrI mean the difference with disk power off is faster spin up time
01:55:14barrywardelli know there is GPIO port which seems to control the hdd power
01:55:18XavierGrand 50mah more power consumptionIIRC
01:55:30barrywardellflicking it off, you can hear the disk spin down
01:57:18barrywardellwould i put that in ide_power_enable()?

02:02:53XavierGryou can use battery_benchmark for ease of use
02:03:10XavierGrand then you can put your results on the wiki
02:03:20XavierGrthat is very informing on iriver H100 and H300

05:32:12bestadvocatebrb reading faq
05:34:40bestadvocateI'm thinking of buying ether a iAudioX5 or 80 gig iPod, I was wondering, which one does rockbox work better on?
05:35:55bestadvocateusing my mp3 player on an Ubuntu machine is my ultimate goal.
05:36:47aliaskWell, at the moment it would only work on the X5
05:37:11aliaskAnd even when the 5.5g iPods are supported, the X5 will perform better.
05:37:59bestadvocatethanks, Its a bit of a bummer, the iPod hardware is superior, but the Apple firmware is completely unexceptable
05:38:53aliaskYeah, it's mainly the LCD that slows down the iPod, it's got a lot of pixels to update, and because we don't have much hardware info on it, we havn't figured out how to write to it very quickly.
05:39:43bestadvocatecool, thanks for the info. I'll likely be back once I get my X5L

11:35:57hockyhairany changes with 5g ipod in the last few weeks?

11:36:19hockyhairwhere?
11:36:25scorchefront page
11:36:35naquadahttp://iaudiophile.net/forums/archive/index.php/t-9303.html
11:36:47scorchethere is a link that says something like "all commits since 2.5"
11:37:43scorche"killing it sooner" is quite the overstatement
11:38:06scorcherockbox battery life is less than the original firmware, but it doesnt harm the battery
11:38:17scorcheand the battery life under rockbox will change for the batter
11:38:44hockyhairscorche: can you explain what car adapter mode does, i dont notice any change when it's set to on
11:38:57naquadaif with the original firmware i get 40 houers what will i get with rockbox ?
11:39:00JdGordonlinuxstb: how "expensive" are new threads? i figured out a sweet way to do random folder advance, but it really needs a new thread to keep a folder list in the background (really only needed on startup and if folders are removed, added...)
11:39:31scorchehockyhair: if it is the feature i am thinking of, it will turn the device off when a current is going through the charger and turn it back on when it is returned
11:39:53scorchegood for the car so you dont have to touch it when running errands and such
11:40:00hockyhairthat always happens regardless of any setting for me
11:40:08naquadascorche:if with the original firmware i get 40 houers what will i get with rockbox ?
11:40:40linuxstbJdGordon: Won't that involve a large buffer to store the folder list?
11:40:42hockyhairi mean, i always have to hold menu when pluging in the charger other wise it will shutdown and rb will not load
11:40:44scorchenaquada: you dont get 40 hours...and i am not sure that the current state of life is like
11:40:59JdGordonlinuxstb: no, i'm going to use a file on disk as the buffer
11:41:08scorchenaquada: there should be a page in the wiki about it...search for "runtime" and look at the results for x5l
11:41:21JdGordonlinuxstb: thats the only way it can work reasonably quickly using little ram
11:41:26naquadadid anyone here install rockbox on iaudio x5l ?
11:41:40linuxstbJdGordon: Isn't that just duplicating the functionality of dircache?

11:47:20scorcheheh...i never said it was that bad, just not as good as OF yet....he was asking if rockbox did anything harmful
11:47:43amiconnBasically, rockbox battery life is clearly better than OF on Archos Ondios, slightly better on HD based archoses and irivers, and roughly equal or slightly worse on X5
11:48:01amiconnThe only targets where rockbox battery life is far worse than OF are the ipods

12:01:21JdGordondoes anyone know how the next/up/down variables work in the dircache_entry struct?
12:01:44linuxstbamiconn: If you have a few minutes, I would be curious to know your thoughts about the bmp resizing patch: http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/5697
12:01:47JdGordoncan i assume next is a file/folder in the current folder, up is the parent dir, down is enter the folder if this is a folder?
12:02:19linuxstbI've started to look at the album art patch, to see what needs to be done before it can be considered for committing, and the album art patch now relies on that bmp resizing patch. But I'm pretty sure we wouldn't want to commit it (the bmp resizing patch).
12:02:47linuxstbJdGordon: I think you would need to ask Slasheri...
12:03:00JdGordonok
12:03:09JdGordonSlasheri: you around?
12:03:52SlasheriJdGordon: next = goes to the next entry in the current dir. down = goes to the sub directory if current entry is a directory. up = goes to the parent directory or NULL if already in the root
12:04:17JdGordonok, thanks
12:05:05JdGordonSlasheri: also, is there seems to be 2 values attribute can be if it is a dir, depending on if it is a sim or target build... is there a better way to check?
12:05:17JdGordonATTR_DIRECTORY for sim or FAT_ATTR_DIRECTORY otherwsie?
12:05:45Slasherihmm, i think they should be identical

12:08:43JdGordonamiconn: you dont use dircache do you?
12:08:56amiconnNo I don't
12:09:37JdGordonwould it be better to add random folder advance using dircache stuff so unless its inited you cant use random, or use my own caching so it can work even if dircache is off
12:09:58Slasheriit seems that compiler error happens only with gcc version 3.4.4. Version 3.4.5 seems to be fixed
12:11:29JdGordonanyone have an option on above question?

12:14:12amiconnJdGordon: My opinion is simple - I don't need random folder skip at all
12:15:02JdGordonok, but hypothetically... would it be better to just disable it for everyone who doesnt use dircache? or make it available for everone who would want it?
12:16:11amiconnDepends on what the cost of separate buffering is. I guess it's better to just use the dircache buffer
12:16:13 Join Genre9mp3 [0] (n=yngwiejo@dsl-88-218-17-158.customers.vivodi.gr)
12:17:00amiconnThe main reasons why I don't use dircache are (1) it uses up RAM for little benefit that's better used for buffering and (2) I still don't really trust it...
12:17:51Genre9mp3amiconn: trust it?
12:17:54scorchethe eye in dircache is a bit shifty...
12:18:36amiconnlinuxstb: I think we do want a scaling bmp loader, but (1) for mono (and perhaps also grayscale) targets it shouldn't be part of the core and (2) I don't like the implementation
12:19:05JdGordonamiconn: the other method uses a file to cache the folder list, and possibly a thread so the list can be updated in the background (would really only need to be rebuilt on boot up and if any folders are added or removed), ram useage would be pretty tiny
12:19:48JdGordonunless it had to use a chace, and coulndt piggy-back onto another thread
12:22:55 Join linuxstb_ [0] (n=linuxstb@rockbox/developer/linuxstb)

12:23:42JdGordonscaling backgounrd images?
12:23:51amiconnI can't see any (at least for the core), and that's why I don't want it in the core for mono/greyscale targets
12:24:10amiconnJdGordon: That doesn't make sense...
12:24:19JdGordonwhy not?
12:24:53amiconnUnlike a wps with album art, where the album art image size can vary depending on the selected theme, the background is always the same size
12:25:08amiconnScaling on target is therefore just a waste of resources
12:25:39JdGordonyes, of course, but it would allow for backgrounds to not have to be manually scaled, so the same wps zips could work for multple targets
12:25:45Genre9mp3Wouldn't bmp scaling have a point on a bmp viewer or something?
12:26:03amiconnGenre9mp3: Yes, but for that it doesn't need to be in the core
12:27:13amiconnlinuxstb_: Some of my objections against the implementation: (1) It uses an (arbitrary) factor of 1000 for calculating the scaling. Real fixed point arithmetics (e.g. using 16.16 format) would certainly be faster
12:27:58amiconn(2) It calls functions with long parameter lists from within tight loops - certaily very slow
12:28:21amiconn(3) It doesn't anti-alias

13:32:18amiconnFor some reason it seems that the spinup delay of the X5 HD is longer than on all other targets I have - but it should be similar to my irivers' (or even lower, since it's a single-platter disk)
13:32:58Genre9mp3X5 use toshiba disks too, right?
13:33:26amiconnyes
13:33:59Genre9mp3Maybe it's something with the ATA driver then?
13:34:25amiconnNo. It's the physical spinup delay...
13:35:28amiconnPerhaps it's only my imagination, because the spinning noise is almost inaudible, unlike my iriver HDs

18:58:42linuxstb_It's what we said the other day - with profiling enabled, the AAC codec is too big.

19:10:25Davide-NYCAAC is definitely a barrier to entry for a ton of ipod users.
19:10:36Davide-NYC(AAC playback)
19:11:55SoapDavide-NYC - while I agree 100% with the points you made in the forum thread about the # of people who rip to AAC or WMA because they are the default on the two most popular media players/rippers...

19:12:54hcslinuxstb_: well, this is an abnormal form of crash for me...
19:13:14Davide-NYCSoap: I bet that target market would shift incredible once aac and wma playback worked
19:13:21Soapahh, but
19:13:59Soapthe very fact that the people in question only use the default ripping behavior is, IMHO, indicitive of the fact they would not be attracted to a non-default firmware.
19:14:11SoapExcept for doom and rockboy.
19:14:11Davide-NYCgood point
19:15:06SoapAnd the very same people who come to rockbox for doom and rockboy are the ones who, once again IMHO, will be the most problematic about DRM'd AAC and WMA files and "why won't my iTunes downloads play on Rockbox?"
19:15:50Davide-NYChmmm, you're probably right. I might be out of touch from the median RB user. I'm primarily focused on recording and then playback. I use no games at all. In fact I patch them out of my builds.
19:16:27Davide-NYCI just find near universal playback of whatever audio files type very very attractive.
19:16:57SoapI find it attractive also, but I'd like to believe it is the icing on the cake, and the cake isn't fully baked yet.

19:22:57DrMoreauboth ata.c and fat.h have SECTOR_SIZE hcd at 512
19:24:59linuxstb_AFAIK, the physical sector size is still 512 bytes - so the ATA sector read/write commands will still transfer 512 bytes.

19:41:54linuxstb_The partition table is read in disk.c - from the first sector on the disk.

21:41:32barrywardell?
21:45:24DrMoreaugrr i can make disk.c report the appripriate disk size by " pinfo[i].size = BYTES2INT32(ptr, 12) * 4 " but it's a hack
21:47:23DrMoreaudisk.c and fat.c are beyond me.. can anyone assist?

21:49:51barrywardellit can also record from the radio
21:50:00linuxstbAre you interested in working on it? I've synced my ipod recording code to CVS, but there's still a lot of work needed.
21:50:29barrywardellyeah, I'd like to try it out at least
21:50:39barrywardelli'd imagine ipods and h10 will be similar

21:52:01baadb33flinuxstb: do you know anyone who can help me a bit with fat.c and disk.c?
21:52:04barrywardellgreat. what do you mean by it needs a lot of work?

21:54:04linuxstb1) Playback is broken after you record; 2) Various features are not yet implemented - changing the gain for example; 3) I haven't tested the MP3 encoder, but the wavpack encoder doesn't work (endian issues I think, maybe unaligned memory accesses as well). WAV is the only codec that's working.

21:56:05barrywardellah, ok. i'll try it out and see if i can fix some of those issues...
21:56:43linuxstbAnd 4) Only 16-bit/44.1KHz is implemented, but the hardware (in the H10 as well I think) should support up to 24-bit/96KHz.

22:33:23stevenmHello. For the iriver target (or in general) which GCC are we using?
22:33:36Bagderstevenm: 3.4.6
22:33:51Bagderfor sh and arm we use 4.0.3
22:33:55stevenmBagder, do you know if someone has uploaded a built version for linux x86?
22:34:19Bagderbuild one with tools/rockboxdev.sh
22:34:22stevenmBagder, I have 3.4.3 and get this error- tns.c:130: internal compiler error: in reload_cse_simplify_operands, at postreload.c:391 building tns.c
22:34:58stevenmBagder, I have built rockbox with this toolchain before but that was a few months back. Would a compiler upgrade (3.4.6) fix this, or is there another problem with my setup?
22:35:28Bagderthat problem is gcc version related
22:35:46Bagderso an upgrade should fix it, yes

22:47:59hcsI'm going through the firmware on my 60GB ipod photo, I'm seeing a different set of registers used for clearing irqs than is seen in ipl or rockbox, specifically the same registers that are actually regularly used for irq handling

22:52:09hcsit concurs with what he have in rockbox (with that typo fixed today)
22:52:54linuxstbThat wiki page (and the IPL source) is what pp5020.h would have been based on.
22:52:56hcsbut it makes no mention of the 0x60001000 range for interrupts, only as cpu/cop mailboxes
22:53:44hcsand it seems to be a fairly reasonable guide from what little of the firmware I've read through so far, though there are some registers which aren't listed on there
22:55:28hcsfreezes just fine with that changed, anyway
22:57:38hcsI'm seeing (*0x70000024)|=0xC0, for which I see no equivalent elsewhere
