02:07:48Shervwell, I'll spout off my question now, I was wondering whether any other iAudio X5 users have noticed a weird behaviour with the "next" function of the joystick while in the WPS. Using the latest daily build, sometimes when I try to advance through an album or playlist the device will quit out of the WPS and go to the browser. I'm not pressing down on the joystick to leave the wps, so I'm...
02:07:49Sherv...wondering whether this is a possible software issue....more likely it's hardware :( I just got the new unit two days ago, too

02:54:09jhMikeSSherv: the button reading might need debouncing.
02:55:07ShervDebouncing, eh? Heh...what does that mean?
02:55:49UncleRogerQuick question: The Rockbox homepage says that the Ipod "Video 5.5th gen" is not supported −− is that what Apple calls the "Late 2006" version? (Sorry if this isn't the right place; I couldn't find this info on the website.)
02:56:04tychveryup
02:56:46UncleRogerDrat. Are there plans to support it in the future? (Near future?)
02:56:48jhMikeSThe value read from the ADC can vary enough to read an incorrect button until it stabilzed. debouncing waits for a stable reading before returning a button press.
02:57:23Shervoh, wow...interesting!
02:57:56ShervThanks for that info, I guess I'll wait until a stable release comes along and then, if necessary, file a bug report
02:57:58jhMikeSI think the iRivers are set up to get the same reading twice before concluding which button is down
02:58:51jhMikeSIt's really that bad for you? I find the glitch very occasional.
02:59:12Shervwell, today it was reallllllly bad
02:59:23Shervit was about every 7th or 8th button press
02:59:40Shervnow that I'm intentionally trying to get it to occur, it has only happened once in over 100 presses
02:59:41Shervgo figure :)

08:36:35mick_homeit uses the google api?

08:37:57rasherI see. But you said you liked the add yourself page?
08:38:00rasherSo why not use it
08:38:23mick_homeya, i guess

08:46:19mick_homeat least i don't think it is 1gb.. hmmm
08:46:41rasherDoes it have a metal case, or is the front in plastic?
08:47:12mick_homemetal and it gets scratched easily ;)
08:47:30mick_homealso, if i replace the firmware, can i make it look exactly like it currently looks? (i pretty much want to swap the firmware w/o my wife knowing)
08:48:24mick_homeso i can magically play ogg/flac :) (and i don't get my ass beat for touching "her" ipod) :)

08:56:06mick_homeso i'm out of luck anyway ;)

08:56:43rasherAnd they have rounded sides
08:57:02mick_homewhat do you mean by "accessories"?
08:57:30mick_homethe "rounded sides" comment is another thing that i'm wondering what exactly you mean ;)

09:08:16mick_homei see it is a draft
09:08:18tychverThe MV Player is a compressed video player
09:08:32tychverit took out the quotation marks :(
09:08:35Bagdertychver: ... yes, but it only plays decompressed ones ;-)
09:08:58Bagderthat's a strange way to make a compressed video player
09:09:22tychverthere the IPL "Movie player" too
09:09:25mick_homerasher: thanks −− is there a LaTeX or DocBook version where i could "fill in the blanks" and submit diffs?
09:09:39tychverthat's what there talking about with the it only plays decompressed video I believe
09:09:48rashermick_home: the cvs module "manual", help is more than welcome
09:09:54tychverit plays mpeg2 video and pcm sound I think
09:10:03tychverMV player plays mpeg4 and pcm sound
09:10:04rashermick_home: And it's LaTeX
09:10:12tychverbut only it 176x144 I think
09:10:13*mick_home checks out the manual via cvs
09:10:13Bagdertychver: their wiki page claims different
09:10:28Bagder"What is MV Player?"
09:10:31mick_homerasher: i have a horrible habit of contributing to projects that i like ;)
09:10:36Bagder"...only plays decompressed videos"
09:10:52ReolosiWhat specification do I need to check for to know if a set of headphones will be good on portable devices (iPods)? Power handling? Impedance? I know it's not a Rockbox question, but I ask here because I'm sure you're all educated about portable audio.
09:10:52Bagdermpeg4 is not decompressed
09:11:25Bagdermick_home: oh crap, you'll be one of us soon then! ;-P
09:12:31mick_homei'll need to change my cloak :-P
09:12:39peturthe rockborg
09:12:40rashermick_home: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IpodInstallationFromMacOSX has info about how to convert to FAT, either the easy way (use the ipod on a windows computer) or the hard way (described)
09:13:20mick_homegreat, i need to get out the Mac :) (somehow i was thinking that Debian would be the easiest...)

09:15:57rasherThat page doesn't have instructions for converting from HFS->FAT though
09:16:13Bagdertychver: yes?
09:16:25tychverthat post discusses the MV_player, not officially part of IPL yet, but plays mpeg4 in ipod resolution with pcm sound
09:16:48tychverat a whopping 8-15fps depending on bitrate
09:16:57scorche(semi-offtopic, but i could use some help): i have demuxed an mpeg2 file...i wish to edit the audio (specifically to copy the left channel to the right channel) and then remux the file...unfortunately the program that i usually use for editing audio (audacity) doesnt like mp2 files...suggestions?
09:17:20mick_homeok, if my wife decides to come after me w/ a knife −− is there a way to extract the firmware from the ipod and reinstall?
09:18:13LinusNmick_home: yes, have her stab the ipod
09:18:17tychversorche, extract it to a wav, any kind of transcoding is going to kill the quality
09:19:39*mick_home reads the docs some more
09:21:29mick_homeanyone working on a point and click gui to install rockbox?
09:21:41mick_homesomething so laymen can set it up
09:22:02mick_homemight broaden the userbase a bit
09:22:25hcsprobably not a good idea until a new release...
09:22:32scorchemick_home: there will be one when the ipod port will be released
09:22:38tychveryeah
09:22:39scorchein the mean time, there are unofficial ones
09:22:55mick_homeya? hmm
09:23:18mick_homeis there a roadmap?

09:26:08Bagderof course
09:26:42tychverI shouldn't think that 320x240 is possible without the second core or the broadcom chip though

09:39:17ReolosiAnyone?
09:39:17LinusNunfortunately, some of those patches are ready to be committed, but the devs don't have the time to do it
09:39:45mick_homewe have ~5 main developers / contributors −− and we don't get many contributions at all :-(
09:39:57tychveryeah, and some of the patches have been made redundant already (scrolling acceleration patch)
09:40:10mick_homewe have a big userbase though (which is nice to a degree)
09:40:23hcsrockbox is an awesome new platform to develop for
09:40:36LinusNReolosi: i don't know the specs, but i guess any pair of earbuds will do just fine
09:41:06LinusNmick_home: that's because organized projects are so boring :-P
09:41:20mick_homeok, to go back to my original qyuestion - can i make it look very similar to how my nano currently looks?
09:41:32mick_homeLinusN: :-P
09:41:33LinusNmick_home: yes, but only in the wps
09:41:54LinusNthe navigation will still be different

09:42:31tychverhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MPEG-2
09:42:47mick_homeand can i revert to the firmware that is currently on it if i have to?
09:43:01tychverwikipedia seems to think that 320x240 mpeg2 with the spatial profile and main level takes 384kbits
09:43:24Bagdermick_home: you can boot up in Apple's OS by pressing some key while starting it
09:43:32Bagderor revert completely
09:43:33scorchemenu
09:43:40mick_hometychver: wikipedia also recommends people use winpooch −− that should say something about the quality of some of the articles :-P
09:43:40scorcheand holding it...not press =)
09:44:01*Bagder will improve one day
09:44:21mick_homeBagder: so it has some builtin thing to revert?

09:50:40Kingstonei wanted to know something about ipodpatcher
09:50:42Kingstoneis it GPL?
09:51:03Kingstoneon what license is it based on?
09:51:49LinusNfrom the wiki: "The two executable programs are licensed under the GNU GPL"
09:52:36Kingstonethanks
09:52:42Kingstoneso just one last question
09:53:09Kingstoneif i want to use ipodpatcher.exe in my program, my program needs to be too under GPL and i need to publish the soruce code?
09:53:18LinusNyes
09:53:30Kingstonei'm talking about just the binary, not ipodpatcher's source code, right?
09:53:54LinusNwell, if you use the binary, your program doesn't have to be gpl
09:54:04Kingstoneoh, so only source code?
09:54:16LinusNyes
09:54:42LinusNbut, if you redistribute the binary, the source code must be available from you
09:55:01Kingstonewhat do you mean?
09:55:13Kingstoneif my program is in a zip and i put ipodpatcher.exe there
09:55:25Kingstonei need to provide source code for my program?
09:55:31 Quit JdGordon ("Konversation terminated!")
09:55:39LinusNif you distribute ipodpatcher.exe in your zip, you must also be able to provide the source code for ipodpatcher upon request
09:55:50Slasherihmm, i just implemented a hack for the hardware sector size detection. At first we try to mount assuming the sector size 512 and if that fails, then with 2048 again
09:56:05Kingstonefor ipodpatcher, not for my whole program, right?
09:56:06Slasheriand then fat also uses the real logical sector size
09:56:11Slasheriseems to work now :)
09:56:14LinusNKingstone: right
09:56:35KingstoneSlasheri, this might not be the best idea
09:56:40LinusNSlasheri: good
09:56:50LinusNwhy not?
09:56:53SlasheriKingstone: i have no idea how else it could be done
09:57:01Kingstonethere seem to be a value hardcoded somewhere in the hardware
09:57:09Kingstonewhich says the sector size
09:57:13tychverbaseline profile mpeg4 part 10 (h264) does 320x240 at 20fps for 384Kbit/s :D
09:57:19Slasheriok, then that could be used
09:57:28LinusNKingstone: tell me more
09:57:33Kingstonebut me and the ipl guys couldn't find it
09:57:38Kingstonei know windows can
09:57:41Kingstoneusing ioctl command
09:57:51Kingstonebut dunno how to do it from the ipod itself
09:57:58Kingstonefor now we use the mbr
09:58:20LinusNKingstone: but the disk itself doesn't have 2048 byte sectors, does it?
09:58:33Kingstoneit does, why not?
09:58:39Kingstoneapple seems to save it in offset 11
09:58:43LinusNbecause no other hard drive has it?
09:58:47Kingstonebut it sometimes BE and sometimes LE
09:58:56 Quit excitatory (Read error: 145 (Connection timed out))
09:59:06Kingstonewhat do you mean no other hard drive has it? why is that?
09:59:17peturcan't we use offset 0x0b in the bootsector: bytes per sector? or is that value not there?
09:59:23LinusNbecause 512 byte sectors is kind of an industry norm
09:59:44LinusNi believe even the ATA spec uses 512 byte sectors
10:00
10:00:29Kingstonethis maybe true but i'm saying that in fact, the real sector size is not written in the mbr
10:00:42LinusNof course not
10:00:43peturah
10:00:46Kingstonewindows too doesn't rely on it, it relies on the disk geometry
10:00:58Kingstonethat's why we think it's a hardware value
10:01:16Kingstonebut for now the best thing to do, is to use offset 0xb in the MBR

10:01:26Kingstoneunsigned short value
10:02:09LinusNi can't think of a good technical reason to use 2048-byte sectors
10:02:39Kingstonethat's what Apple did, not me..
10:02:42tychvercan x264 be run on an ipods ARM7TDMI?
10:02:59LinusNKingstone: i know, but i can't understand why
10:03:20Kingstonehttp://svn.ipodlinux.org/tools/ipodloader2/vfs.c
10:03:31Kingstonelook here in vfs_init()
10:03:34Slasherihard drive itself has normal 512 byte sectors
10:03:35Bagdertychver: sure, the question is only how fast it can show anything
10:03:51Slasheribut partition table etc. are calculated using 2048 sectors
10:05:23KingstoneSlasheri, then how would you justify the fact the partition is in offset 63*2048 from the start of the disk? and not *512?
10:05:55tychverwell there are mpeg4 codecs that run incredibly well on ARM9 based mobile phones, so I should guess that it's workable
10:05:59LinusNKingstone: because they want the disk to pose as a 2048-byte disk?
10:06:37Kingstonewhen you come to a hdd, you don't know at first what is the sector size, it must be written somewhere, else, how can you calculate the relative sector position for the partitions?
10:06:38Bagdertychver: 1) the ARM9 cores genereally run a lot faster and 2) they may have more optimized codecs than we do
10:06:42peturSlasheri: then why not look for the FAT start marker at 512byte and 2048 byte offsets? or am I seeing this too easy
10:07:24Slasheripetur: trying to mount the partition does practically the same thing
10:07:35Slasheriit does not mount unless strict checks are met
10:08:05LinusNKingstone: from the ATA-5 specification: "sector: A uniquely addressable set of 256 words (512 bytes)."
10:08:35Slasherihmm, now i need someone to test the patch on non 5.5G to see if it breaks the fs code
10:09:01Kingstonei didn't say it's incorrect
10:09:27Kingstonebut checking for 512 first and then for 2048 is too easy, u need a standard check
10:09:48Kingstonei'm sure it's hardcoded somewhere, we just need to find it
10:09:54Kingstonefor now, rely on offset 0xb

10:21:06tychverbadger: really? I was under the impression that mpeg4 offered far better quality than mpeg2 at cell phone sized resolutions
10:21:35Bagderit should be easy enough to test of course
10:21:37linuxstbtychver: Do some test encodings and compare. MPEG-2 looks good to me though.
10:22:05Slasherimpeg-2 is high-quality with reasonable bitrate
10:22:17Slasherifor example DVB broadcasting uses it also
10:22:22tychverwell mpeg2 was already considered to be better than mpeg3 at high bitrates
10:22:33BagderSlasheri: I believe there's mpeg4 dvb too
10:22:38tychverso why develop mpeg4 if not for low bitrates
10:22:39linuxstbThere is indeed.
10:22:52SlasheriBagder: hmm, probably that is with HDTV
10:22:58Bagderyeah
10:22:59linuxstbBut for High-def broadcasts (1440x1080i or 1920x1080i)
10:23:05*linuxstb needs to speed up
10:23:11Bagderhehe
10:23:36*Bagder has a half-baked DVB-T board on his table next to him
10:24:56linuxstbtychver: mpeg4 is a huge standard with many different profiles aimed at various bitrate ranges. HDTV broadcasts use MPEG-4 AVC which pretty much demands a decidicated hardware decoder - general-purpose CPUs can't handle it.

10:34:20tychverwere looking at 320x240 max
10:34:30tychverabout a 5th as many pixels
10:35:01tychverand that was with divx which is heavily optimised for compression rather than decoding speed
10:37:31tychverwait, I mean quality for a given resolution
10:37:36 Quit cadu (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
10:38:05tychverit uses 1.2-3.0 times as much bandwidth as baseline mpeg4
10:38:46tychverbadger: I think that baseline profile 320x240 mpeg4 should be possible on an ipod
10:41:31linuxstb320x240 MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 would be a struggle if mpegplayer's performance is a guide.
10:41:49Bagdertychver: what do you base those guesses on?
10:42:00Bagder"should be possible" ?
10:43:12tychverdivx at 720x576 uses around 6Mbit/s and takes a 700mhz x86
10:43:21linuxstbMy 400MHz Pentium-2 could handle 720x576 MPEG-2...
10:44:18tychverwere looking at bitrates of 384 or 480 for an ipod video screen
10:46:00Bagderwell, can you find any arm7-based player with a single core that can play 320x240 mpeg4?
10:46:04linuxstbDon't forget we also have the overhead of updating the 5g's LCD, which isn't the fastest...
10:46:27BagderI mean, with a framerate that is pleasing
10:48:14tychverhttp://www.us.design-reuse.com/articles/article11288.html
10:48:42tychverARM7TDMI takes 20mhz to decode MPEG4 at 15fps
10:48:54tychver128x96
10:50:09Bagderwell, I challenge you or anyone to prove that on a live target
10:50:20linuxstbIt also depends what it means by decoding. MPEG-4 decodes to yuv, which needs to be converted to RGB to be written to the ipod's LCD.
10:50:42tychveralso has the frequency needed for that
10:50:47BagderI believe that decode number is to yuv
10:50:51linuxstbThe yuv2rgb decoding and writing to the LCD takes a large proportion of the total time.
10:51:01tychver15mhz
10:51:11Bagder"Based on these performance figures, we can conclude that SQCIF @ 10fps grade MPEG-4 video messaging is possible"
10:51:38Bagdertychver: still, theory is one thing, reality another
10:51:52tychveryes but remeber that's talking about encoding and decoding simultaneously
10:52:26Bagderif you come anywhere near those number, I'll take my hat off for you
10:52:30linuxstbBut total decode time for QCIF@15fps (176x144) is 41MHz...
10:52:40tychveryeah
10:52:49linuxstbSo 320x240@25fps or 30fps isn't going to fit in 75MHz.
10:52:57tychverwhich is almost nano resolution
10:53:27tychveripod video resolution isn't happening but you could have some very happy 4th gen/ nano users
10:53:40linuxstbYes, I'm sure Nano resolution mpeg-4 is feasible. I think mpegplayer manages 30fps playback already (without very much optimisation).
10:54:45linuxstbBut to be honest, I don't think the video codec matters that much - you have to re-encode anyway to get video at the size of your LCD.
10:55:27tychverjust made ipod video users do without fullscreen :P
10:56:33tychveror they can just use mpeg2 and deal with a lower playback time and bigger videos
10:57:34tychverthe posibility is rather intoxicating
11:00
11:02:53tychverit's probably easier to get the broadcom chip working than it is to get 320x240 mpeg 4 on the arm7

11:08:56zethere's even expensive docks that do their own music browsing interface on the TV
11:09:00zeand they actually suck pretty hard
11:09:04ze:p
11:09:22zeno playlist creation support, rather limited capability in general
11:09:31zenot even as good as the firmware's browsing
11:09:37zeand they still don't browse video or pictures
11:09:47zeyou have to switch them to video mode and then still browse on the ipod for those
11:10:36zeit'd be sweet if rockbox could someday do a whole interface output on the tv-out
11:11:18zeseems like there'd at least be a hacky way to go about that
11:12:07tychveryou could just pipe the screen in as a jpeg and display it on the TV
11:12:15zeyeah thats what i was thinking
11:12:55zegotta wonder what apple was thinking though not to offer such a function
11:13:05zeespecially if its something that easy
11:13:17*petur gets the feeling this is one of those wild dreaming sessions

11:14:01Bagderipod is hardly very feature-packed
11:15:08tychverhence using rockbox to extend functionality
11:15:25zeso if its a wild dreaming session, that mean there's little chance of rockbox supporting the broadcom chip?
11:15:40BagderI don't think anyone is working on that
11:15:58Bagderso you won't step on anyone's toes
11:16:22tychverit's its own cpu by the looks of it
11:16:25zewell i'll wait for it to have basic functionality on the 80G 5.5g to start with :p
11:17:08zewhich isn't to say that i even have the requisite skills to accomplish it anyway...

12:02:51crashdjus stop it being recoverable, the place i bought my 5g from wont replace it because of a dodgy headphone jack
12:02:56crashdbut they will replace it if it wont boot

12:03:08Kasperle:/
12:03:27Kasperleyou could probably manipulate an aupd file on the firmware partition

12:03:46crashdPaul_the_Nerd: thanks for being my moral fibre
12:03:56crashdKasperle: yeah, i thought of that
12:04:02crashdit isn't fraud, im being ripped off with a dodgy unit
12:04:14Paul_the_NerdThen go in and prove the terms of your warrant cover it.
12:04:30crashdthey don't, clearly
12:04:36crashdwhich is why im trying to adhere to the terms
12:04:43Paul_the_NerdSo how exactly did you get ripped off?
12:04:50crashdbecause it's fucked?
12:05:04crashdi dont want a discussion on the morality or fraudulence of the situation

12:06:58crashdi only asked once, and you've been giving me gip ever since
12:07:44Paul_the_NerdBecause we don't like discussion of how to do illegal things here.

12:09:47thegeek_fixing it would break warranty

12:10:06crashdbut the place i bought it will replace it if it wont boot
12:10:09crashdor whatever
12:10:19crashdbut the headphone problem is an intermittent issue
12:10:23thegeek_then you dont have to brick it
12:10:46crashdwhy?
12:10:47thegeek_if they replace it if it wont boot you could just format the drive or something
12:10:53Paul_the_NerdHe's still got to lie regarding its status and/or what he's done about it.
12:10:53crashdyeah, but it's recoverable then
12:10:58Paul_the_NerdPlease, stop discussing this in channel
12:11:04Paul_the_NerdI cannot monitor PMs, but this is not the place.
12:11:39zei don't think warranties are specific to the nature of the defect generally
12:11:44zeits defective, they should replace it
12:11:51crashdze: that's what I said
12:11:55crashdbut they seem to think differently
12:11:57zemaybe you didn't say it properly
12:12:00ze:p
12:12:47crashdbbe
12:12:49thegeek_most warranties have a clause that voids them if the damage is intentional;P
12:12:51crashdmebbe
12:13:45zeconfirm the wording of the warranty... if it supports your claim (and it probably does), see if you can get a free consultation on it and see if you can't threaten them with a legal suite that'll not only replace the unit but make them reimburse you for legal fees :p
12:13:59zeof course if you can go a nice way about it first, that'd be easier and better overall
12:14:06zebut that recourse could have potential

12:19:36KasperlePaul_the_Nerd: yeah, I guess few would be willing to try that ;)
12:19:45linuxstbYou would need to know how to encrypt a bootloader image.

14:08:57n1sthe long lines to the left never broke so the right column was about 4 cm wide wich made the table take up a whole paga and was impossible to read.
14:09:03webguest99petur: have you had a chance to try the new key mapping? Does it feel more intuitive?
14:09:48peturI did try it before committing and I liked it. I usually don't use the pitch screen though...
14:09:53Xadowhi ppl
14:10:20webguest99n1s: you mean "in XXX mode?" We should probably add a line break before that and use smaller font for the text
14:10:22peturbut pressing stop to get back to the wps was (and still is) not in line with the rest of the interface
14:10:40Xadowdoes any of you know if rockbox has plans for zune or not?
14:10:49peturnone so far
14:11:09webguest99petur: I kept is because it's a menu (for me)

14:12:28n1swebguest99: I made some changes to the buttontable, moved the (in blah mode...) to the right column etc.
14:12:37n1sok, committed now.
14:12:54peturah yes... pressing stop in a menu also goes back to wps. Doesn't feel intuitive.. ah well...
14:13:19Xadowheh, i cannot believe that zune doesn't play wav files...

14:33:33linuxstbRealNetworks support ATRAC..
14:33:55linuxstbThere are some webcasts available in ATRAC in a Real container.
14:34:11peturah
14:34:37peturwell I never liked Real too :)

14:40:42LinusNxbmc i mean
14:40:58LinusNplays everything from my nslu2 smb share
14:41:26LinusNreally nice
14:41:30peturit it silent (fanless)?
14:41:47linuxstbxboxes are far from silent... (at least, mine is)
14:41:49LinusNstill the original fan, will install a silent one soonish
14:42:04LinusNbut it will never be totally silent
14:42:11linuxstbI just use it for media playing as well (with xboxlinux)
14:42:37LinusNstill a damn nice and cheap media center solution
14:42:44linuxstbIndeed.
14:42:53Xadowwouln't a liquid ref. system be more silent?
14:43:26LinusNi bet you can get it quite silent if you put your mind to it
14:43:42LinusNthere's still the hard drive...
14:43:54*tehsmo would just use 120mm fans, it's easier and pretty quiet
14:44:10LinusNhard to make 120mm fit
14:44:20tehsmoyou could cut a hole for it in the top, maybe
14:44:25LinusNeven 80mm is big
14:44:57*linuxstb is looking to upgrade a HDTV-capable media player if anyone has any ideas...
14:45:10peturin my pc I use samsung spinpoints suspended in rubber bands and 120mm fans at 5V, mounted on soft pads
14:45:13LinusNi have an 80mm silent fan which i will install when i get too annoyed by the noise
14:45:33LinusNxbox can do hdmi
14:45:56linuxstbBut at what resolution, and is it fast enough to decode HDTV content?
14:46:10linuxstbOr do you mean xbox360?

16:37:15linuxstbHaving a /Music folder makes things cleaner if you have other files stored on your disk (e.g. game roms, photos, other datafiles), or if you have audiobooks you want to keep separate. It's also easier to create a playlist with all your music in.

19:20:22lowlightthere should be some patches soon from Slasheri for the 5.5 30GB
19:20:22zylchetrue :P
19:20:51l3n34what is the difference between 30GB 5.5 and 30Gb 5g?

19:21:14l3n34zylche: so..?cold you please write me a tutorial
19:21:17richardtockI have an iriver H140 and that, and i've gone through all the intallation malarky on the manual and that, yet my player still just loads up the original firmware. what's up with that?
19:21:30l3n34zylche: i have tried many tmes to install it and didn't succeed
19:22:01l3n34richardtock: that's exactly what happened with my ipod video
19:22:18lowlight5.5 has a different hd sector size (check today's irc log)
19:22:18richardtockoh.
19:22:33l3n34zylche: i do everything,then copy the .rockbox and rockbox.ipod and the ipod still boots the original OS
19:22:36richardtockcan anyone offer any help? any ideas?
19:22:50dan_abarrywardell: Looks OK in theory
19:23:08barrywardelli did a good bit of testing in the sim
19:23:39zylcheAhh
19:23:42barrywardelland it feels fairly good. hard to say until it's used on the target though

19:26:39l3n34but i'll try renaming anyhow...and if you have other tipps, zylche, please name them
19:26:58barrywardelldan_a: that's not on the sim (or at least not in the version of cvs i'm using). there are still some problems with the debug screen now that you mention it though

19:38:49webguest97question: I'm trying to get the jblackglass theme on the wiki themes page on my ipod, but it requires me to use the build that the guy made, which is very old. I'm trying to patch the source using the patches he provided and most of them work but the "bmp-resize" and "album art" patches won't apply cleanly. Is anything known about this or are newer versions available?
19:39:38barrywardellah, ok. i didn't put any nops in there
19:39:48PaulPositionThey won't apply cleanly. However, some people (I, Maxwen) had some luck using same patches, but using bmp.c ver. 1.35 (that's from 11th of november)..
19:39:53habanahi all
19:40:37PaulPositionwebguest - I *think* the only things that changed in bmp.c was dithering for black/white targets so it shouldn't break anything. But it might not be "rock"-solid.. :p

20:12:50dan_aIf we can get this working for dual boot on the H10 and the Sansa, it would probably be a wise idea to use this as the basis for all the PortalPlayer builds - both bootloader and normal.
20:12:51barrywardellit's actually a similar symptom to when i was testing your cop patch
20:13:24barrywardelldan_a: agreed. it would be good to test on an ipod too

20:59:33barrywardelland you used the same value in scramble.c?

21:00:07dan_aI did. Is that going to cause a problem?
21:00:56barrywardellno, it's just that MODEL_NUMBER was 12 originally and 16-12=4. seems like an odd coincidence

21:13:57mick_homei'll just need to live w/ "organized chaos" then ;)
21:14:42mick_homepixelma: yes, it should be 1) universal and 2) snazy and 3) very usable/accessable
21:15:00mick_homeso for #1 should run on all targets
21:15:11mick_home#2 well, this one is obvious :D
21:15:24pixelma#3 - it's in cvs ;)
21:15:46mick_home#3 people shouldn't be like "ok, how the hell does this look" and blink / color impared people should beable to use it just fine

21:37:56mick_homerasher: ok, fine - but i think you can agree that we need a "universal theme" - that doesn't suck ;)
21:38:43unleetPaul
21:38:53unleetPaul, I have news.
21:38:56rashermick_home: Sure, and iCatcher is a very good candidate, but there are a few problems: 1) Boot time (this is a biggie) 2) The h1xx problems 3) Maybe others

21:42:16pixelmamick_home: the boot time problem applies to all bitmap wps
21:42:44mick_homeok, how long does it take to boot?
21:43:26unleetI finally got my H10 to recognize the rockbox mi4 but for some reason when it boots up the screen turns part yellow and all fuzzy and messed up.
21:43:35unleetIt's working but the screen is all F'ed.
21:43:58PaulPositionunleet - Sorry, was away..
21:44:07unleetThats ok.
21:44:11rashermick_home: A wps with a bunch of bmps pretty much doubles boot time
21:44:15unleetRead above Mesages
21:44:18unleetMessages*
21:44:34PaulPositionunleet- Which bootloader though? MTP from archive or that customized one I linked to?
21:44:42mick_homerasher: and that is pprox?
21:44:46mick_homeapprox*/
21:44:47unleetBoth do the same thing.
21:44:59rashermick_home: From 5 to 10 seconds possibly, I don't really know
21:45:11mick_homeok, that is not that bad
21:45:20mick_home10+ seconds would be a real issue
21:45:33PaulPositionunleet- Woah, that's weird. Never saw that happen. But first things first : how did you get it to work? Did anything differently than first few times around?
21:45:58pixelmathat depends on how many bitmaps are used, on your harddrive (I guess you won't notice it much on Nano) and also on how scattered those many bitmaps are on your drive
21:46:00rasherWell, it is when many developers and long-time users from Archos are used to 2-3 seconds
21:46:58unleetNo, Evidently my mi4 in the System directory is named differently
21:47:14unleetSo I had to rename the others and somehow it worked.
21:47:39unleetI took video of what happens when my player starts up but im on a different computer and did not bring my flash drive.
21:48:17PaulPositionunleet - okay.. Right now, if you go back to original firmware it still working good and only rockbox screws with image?
21:48:26unleetYes
21:48:39PaulPositionunleet - good. At least nothing is broken.
21:48:41 Quit Soap (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
21:48:59unleetActually, when rockbox is starting up, it shows the iriver loading or w/e and then when thats done it tries to load rockbox and the screen goes all messed up.
21:49:41PaulPositionunleet - Hmm, this is weird. No error message or nothing? Does it seem to respond to button input or something or do you think it freezes at that point?
21:50:13unleetIt responds and goes through the menu, I just cannot tell what anything says
21:50:33unleetThe first menu evidently has 2 choices and only the first one does something
21:50:36low_lightunleet: hang around, maybe barrywardell (h10 dev) will be back
21:50:42rasherpixelma: To be honest, the "123" graphics in that screenshot of icatcher looks broken on all screens

21:53:06webguest78Aha! Any Rockbox developers around here?
21:53:08unleetI'm not at my house as we speak.
21:53:37Kasperleall the files appear 4x in the file browser. is that a known problem?
21:53:37unleetwebguest78, this is a chatroom for rockbox, of course there are.
21:53:44rashermick_home: I don't think so, most themes are only made for one, or a few ports
21:53:44mick_homewebguest78: no :-P (they just haunt you in your sleep)
21:53:54mick_homeok, good
21:53:58PaulPositionunleet - Okay.. Just to sum it all up..:
21:54:00mick_hometht narrows down the choices ;)
21:54:03unleetOk.
21:54:30webguest78oh, that's a shame, I was just about to burst out into praise, applause, etc
21:54:48PaulPositionunleet - Yesterday, we had trouble getting the bootloader (h10.mi4 in /system) to work. Now, it seems, it does process through and go into Rockbox firmware, which is one step.
21:54:49webguest78having just discovered and tried rockbox, i have to say it really, um, rocks
21:54:56mick_homewebguest78: check the cloaks of say... rasher :)
21:55:12ani-adomrasher: i install Cygwin.,
21:55:17ani-adomwhat now?
21:55:28unleetYes, it processes it. Now We just have to fix the screen problem.
21:56:00unleetIndeed there is a menu that I can use, the screen may be f'ed u, but I can still see it navigating the main menu.

21:56:08 Join MarcoPolo [0] (n=MarcoPol@82.227.240.106)
21:56:16PaulPositionunleet - So we need to find out, now, why it's not working right. It shouldn't have much to do anymore with the h10.mi4 but maybe with the rockbox.h10 or the stuff that went into the .rockbox folder.
21:56:30unleetYes
21:56:42rasherani-adom: These can all be found on the DocsIndex wiki page under "For Developers", but if you don't know what you're looking for, it's a bit tough
21:57:01 Quit webguest97 ("CGI:IRC")

21:57:48webguest78Hey, that's funny, I was about to ask the same thing I'm guessing ani-adom asked
21:58:06rasherwebguest78: How to compile Rockbox?
21:58:29unleetNo, there are 2 choices on the main menu. The second one does nothing, and the first obviously goes to another menu. If you could get me some pictures for the other menu's im scrolling into, I might be able to find music.
21:58:37KasperleSlasheri: you there?
21:58:52PaulPositionunleet- Try something. I doubt it will help anything but it sure can't hurt.. When booting, put it on hold for a few seconds to clear settings.
21:58:58heyJuliussorry to barge in here, but is the time (am pm) or 24 hour clock, theme dependant, when i try to set the mode it doesnt work.

22:00
22:00:45PaulPositionunleet - hmmm... Ok, then. If the 'music' folder is still hidden (it is by default, the original firmware hides it) I'm not sure rockbox sees it, so perhaps the first option *isn't* music after all.
22:00:47unleetPerhaps some pictures as I have suggested will let me know if it indeed does play music.

22:04:05unleetNo, I decided to use the library computers today.
22:04:05SlasheriKasperle: then you also need to patch the ipod_fw to compile the bootloader (my patch doesn't yet do it)
22:04:26KasperleSlasheri: yeah, did that
22:04:34Slasheriok, then it should work :)
22:04:35webguest78Does anyone know, is the lack of a recording option on the 4G iPod caused by technical limitations or people-time-commitment limitations?
22:04:44ani-adomrasher: i need color bitmap and color changer...

22:05:50Slasheriafter that i could commit it
22:05:55Kasperleand i don't really know rockbox well, so it sucks that i can't really compare whether some behaviour is still "normal" or not
22:06:13mick_homei'm good w/ usability, accessability, i'm a coder (i code on too much atm - but i could take on something in the bts), i could get started on writing diffs for the docs.....

22:07:09Kasperleis it normal that i have to reboot after initializing the database?
22:07:10mick_homerasher: i mean, since there isn't really a "todo list" it is difficult to see what would be the most useful
22:07:16webguest78dan_a, thanks. Will it help people if I update the patch?
22:07:17Slasherithen you can compare if all entries point to the same file
22:07:22tucozRegarding icatcher. I think the ´paused´text should not cover the volume display. A better choice would be the battery level.
22:07:26PaulPositionunleet - Right, that's a workaround I didn't think of.
22:07:53mick_homerasher: IMO having a kick ass UI (that is common among all supported targets) is on the top of the list
22:08:07unleetUnder Windows Xp, how do I unhide hidden folders?
22:08:09rashermick_home: Development is mostly done on a "whatever you feel like" basis, so it's hard to say

22:08:32dan_awebguest78: Almost certainly. I'm not sure what the hold-up on getting it committed was - maybe linuxstb can tell you more if he's around
22:08:39mick_homerasher: and an *easy* interface to an installer would be up there too
22:08:43KasperleSlasheri: it's the same for every album (tried at least 10), the files are on disk in the apple iPod format

22:20:38PaulPositionani-adom - Really, if you have an iRiver H3x0, I'd suggest posting a request for help in the rockbox section of the misticriver.net forums. There's at least a few builds already compiled with lots of patch, I can't believe none of them would fit the task...
22:21:20PaulPositionani-adom - And while waiting for an answer on a forum may seem like Loooong, it's actually often quite faster than trying to understand how to compile, what to compile, why the patch won't sync, how to sync, etc...
22:21:49ani-adomk.
22:22:28unleetPaul I have an idea.
22:22:43unleetDo you suppose the wps or anything needs to be changed?
22:22:59unleetMaybe the bitmap is messed up and needs a different one?
22:22:59 Quit webguest78 ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
22:23:09PaulPositionunleet - the basic WPS with rockbox is only text, it shouldn't have to be changed.
22:23:37unleetIt was an idea.
22:23:57unleetThen perhaps my H10 doesnt like the main screen and I need a different one?
22:25:05PaulPositionunleet - What *I* would try, is erasing both the rockbox.h10 file in root, AND the .rockbox folder, redownload a build (custom or not) and copy it back. BUT I'd try it with both the usb AND a/c cables plugged in, to be absolutely certain the device gets enough energy to copy files without risking any sort of 'file corruption'.
22:25:31PaulPositionIt might not work at all, but it'd be another 'check' on the checklist.. :(

22:26:50mick_homerasher: would it be possible to put it on the rockbox webpage once it is done?
22:26:57rashermick_home: Unlikely, she's an old-time rockbox developer who just disappeared
22:26:59SlasheriKasperle: hehe, so in fact you have the same file 4x on your player =)
22:27:03barrywardellyes
22:27:04PaulPositionBarrywardell - Any idea why a poor gent's h10 install would show a completely screwed screen on bootup?
22:27:07rashermick_home: Absolutely, we want a good installer
22:27:16barrywardelli'm just reading the logs now...
22:27:22KasperleSlasheri: really odd. I fear the worst
22:27:23unleetYes it shows messed up colors
22:27:24rasherNone of the current unofficial ones really do what we want

22:28:28PaulPositionGood luck :p
22:28:38mick_homeif so, i'd like something taht is accepted by the rockbox devs and does what is required
22:28:40unleetThank You.
22:28:56 Quit PaulPosition ()
22:30:13mick_homemy goals (personal ones) are: 1) something that is easy (if my wife + mother can install it - it is perfect), 2) something that also works on Linux (Mac would be cool too) 3) something w/ the option to pull a stable or a nightly & a UI for the HFS+ to Fat32 conversion... oh ya, it has to look cool :D
22:30:44mick_homei take it that the current code is GPL?
22:30:58rashermick_home: All of that should be possible I guess - a lot of the code already exists in the various patching/encrypting utilities
22:31:11rashermick_home: Everything in CVS, and the wiki should be GPL, yes
22:31:19mick_homealso, i'd like something where you just choose a WPS from a dropdown (and i want to call it a "theme" so people don't get lost in jargon)
22:31:31rashermick_home: We have themes
22:31:39rasherThey change, among other things, the WPS :)
22:31:40mick_home!?
22:31:45unleetBarry.
22:31:46mick_homeoh god
22:31:53mick_home:)
22:32:10mick_homethe whole WPS thing was confusing to me since i thought it was a theme :-/
22:32:11rashermick_home: It's possible to change just the WPS, and then themes change stuff like font, background etc
22:32:17barrywardellunleet: what model h10 do you have?
22:32:28unleetThe 6gb blue version
22:32:36mick_homerasher: so i probably want to be looking at themes instead of the WPS stuff
22:32:50Arathisunleet: pure or not?
22:32:57rashermick_home: For an installer, yeah
22:33:03unleetnon-pure w/ radio
22:33:19rasherThis will be a lot easier once the config is stored in a file rather than directly on the harddisc
22:33:24barrywardellit sounds like you're using a mi4 file for a 20gb model
22:33:33barrywardellwhere did you get your file from?
22:33:34mick_homerasher: is there a link in the wiki (also i think that needs to be clarified a bit in the wiki)
22:33:46unleetThe downloads page for the 6gb version
22:33:58rashermick_home: about the wps/theme thing? I don't think so
22:34:01unleetand also, paul gave me his mi4 that he uses. still no luck.
22:34:01rasherNot sure
22:34:12rasherTo be honest, I don't know much about wps and themes

22:35:31rashermick_home: Ah yes, that's a semi-official theme collection.. You probably want to ask someone else about this..
22:35:48mick_homeok, well i'll add those
22:35:51unleetThe rockbox mi4's give me the messed up screen and the iriver mi4 works fine.
22:36:08mick_homei'll first get something that works on my nano - then i'll move from there
22:36:37mick_homeif someone wants to add stuff, sure (or if someone sends me a player i'll add support)

22:59:06rashermick_home: Well, that's partly a project policy
22:59:07mick_homethat is a usability problem, it should automagically concatinate thenm via javascript
22:59:19rasherI guess
22:59:20mick_homeor create one for you

23:00:01mick_homebesides, the whole ThisIsATopicForAWiki thing is hard to read

23:09:11hcsThat's The "First Letter Must Be Uppercase" Rule.
23:09:18mick_homei never understood WikiNames :-P
23:09:37rasherThat's because it makes it easy to automatically link them

23:12:57 Quit funky ("leaving")
23:13:06mick_homethe code is clean and it isn't a nightmare by any means (IMO)
23:13:24mick_homei've also skinned wiki.clamwin.com to look like clamwin.cm
23:13:26rasherIt's just... collapsing under its own weight it seems. I'll admit that I don't have specifics, but I've jsut seen many people complain that it's impossible to work with.
