#rockbox log for 2006-12-04

00:00:06amiconnThat's just because the linker doesn't throw an error when the beginning of the last section still fits
00:00:23amiconn...even if the end is outside the specified area
00:00:40amiconn(a linker bug that has always been there)
00:00:45amiconnCheck the build log

00:02:38linuxstbSo are any rombox builds still working?
00:03:37amiconnIn the beginning of 2006, all archoses could run rombox. For FM and V2 it broke some time in summer, for the V1 it broke in autumn, and for Ondio FM it broke today :(
00:03:54amiconnThe only archoses still featuring rockbox now are the Ondio SP and the Player
00:04:25*jhMikeS thinks about unneeded strings again - but what a task - and adding the feature selectivity
00:04:58amiconnThe string cleanup should bring back rombox for a while
00:05:29jhMikeSand give it room to grow again, like repotting a plant :)
00:07:05amiconnyes
00:07:12jhMikeSthere's got to be some prioritizing of features with rombox no doubt
00:07:52amiconnIn fact, if rombox would break because of adding cool new features, and in spite of optimising the code, it would be another thing

00:09:48Soapcode size primarely affects the archos line, correct?
00:09:59amiconnno
00:10:18jhMikeSI'm wondering where I can trim fat in anything I've done that would affect that or anything else. :\
00:10:32amiconnIt does affect them in a more obvious way because of the hard limits regarding rombox etc,
00:10:42Soaphow does it affect the software codec ports? a reduction in buffer size?
00:10:47amiconnbut the target with the tightest RAM restrictions is the iFP
00:11:37jhMikeSamiconn: what other commits of recent are bloated is what I mean. I know about the latest.
00:11:49amiconnI think all targets benefit from compact & efficient code
00:12:27SoapI don't think anyone can disagree with that, in theory.
00:12:33amiconnThe buffer size is less important on targets with 16MB+ of RAM, but battery runtime also depends on code efficiency
00:13:19jhMikeSI guess for coldfire that means running the stop #2000 as much as possible?
00:14:53Soapso runtime detection of 2048 byte sectors was commited, but runtime detection of 64MB of memory still hasn't. What is holding that back?
00:15:18linuxstbThat means completely reorganising how Rockbox uses memory.
00:15:20amiconnThe detection isn't the problem. The RAM layout is
00:16:22amiconnjhMikeS: Ideally, threads should be sleeping as often & long as possible, and boosting shouldn't happen too often and only when the power is really needed
00:16:44Soapis the RAM layout discussed on the wiki, or do I need to read the code and plot memory usage on a piece of paper?
00:16:44 Join MarcoPolo [0] (n=MarcoPol@virlet.rez-gif.supelec.fr)
00:17:11amiconnSaving space is often a question of how the function is organised, and what optimisations are applied
00:17:15jhMikeSshouldn't sleep_thread be used in a lot of places instead of yield then?
00:18:00linuxstbSoap: It's currently something like: [Rockbox][...audio buffer...][codec buffer][plugin buffer] - with Rockbox being at the start of RAM and the codec/plugin buffers being at fixed (at compile-time) addresses at the end of RAM. The audio buffer is what's left in the middle.
00:18:09amiconnRemember that I added support for reading 16bit and 4bit BMPs to the bmp loader (those are the features which affect monochrome targets) with practically constant code size on archos?
00:18:31amiconn(+4 byte in total counting my second optimisation)
00:18:35 Quit BHSPitMonkey (Connection timed out)
00:18:39Soaplinuxstb: what does the 64MB patch in the tracker do? Stretch the audio buffer, or split it in two?
00:18:56amiconnSoap: Afaik there is no runtime detection patch
00:19:03linuxstbSoap: The suggestion is to change that to [codec buffer][plugin buffer][Rockbox][...audio buffer...] but no-one has stepped up to do it.
00:19:08amiconnThe 64MB patch allows building a special 64MB build
00:19:52SoapI grok that amiconn. I just didn't know if all it needed was runtime detection, or if people were (rightfully) upset with how it placed the memory usage.
00:22:26Soapnevermind, after reading linuxstb's first comment on the tracker it makes sense now.
00:24:55jhMikeSwe should be able to sleep threads only up till their next turn to run but that doesn't appear supported. there's always a timeout.
00:25:21amiconnsleep until their next turn doesn't make sense
00:25:29amiconnThat would be identical to yield()
00:25:34linuxstbSoap: Only 6 months old...
00:26:00Soaplinuxstb: I agree, I asked a silly question in hindsight.
00:26:14amiconnWith sleep(0) you can sleep the thread until the end of the current tick
00:26:19linuxstbSoap: No, I meant that after 6 months, no-one has done any more work on it...

00:29:01jhMikeSyield doesn't seem to put them on the list of inactive processes and execute a stop (or eq) though
00:29:17amiconnOf course not
00:29:48amiconnThe scheduler only executes (and can only execute) stop if all threads are sleeping
00:30:06jhMikeSright, but why have to wait a min of .01s ??
00:30:18amiconnBut if a thread already wants to run after one scheduling round, that cannot happen

00:31:17amiconnStop halts the cpu until the next interrupt. The only interupt that is guaranteed to happen in regular intervals is the tick.
00:31:43jhMikeSah so then I guess you have to expect to be out at least 1 tick
00:31:59amiconnNot _at least_, but in the worst case

00:32:22amiconnAs already mentioned, you can do sleep(0); which will sleep th ethread until th eend of the current tick
00:32:43amiconn..which can be anything between nearly immediately and 10ms
00:32:47jhMikeSI mean, you can't count on being running any sooner

00:34:36jhMikeS10ms? could be longer if an lcd update takes place but then so can yield
00:35:06jhMikeSthat was a big issue with doing the sound effects
00:35:51amiconnYes, any thread might delay stuff further
00:36:05jhMikeSbut they're boosted and we're cutting it _real_ close for latency
00:36:12amiconnReally time critical stuff requires an isr

00:42:16jhMikeSthat could be a way to go with those. could an interrupt be triggered from the recording handler?
00:43:04amiconnI don't know what you need
00:43:22amiconnIn general it is possible to use interrupts from within plugins
00:43:53amiconnPreferably the plugin shouldn't bang the hardware, but rather use functions provided by the core
00:44:20amiconnThe grayscale library, video.rock (archos) and metronome.rock use the user timer this way
00:44:22jhMikeSto process the sound as soon as another chunk is available from DMA and not have to wait through a screen update

00:44:33 Quit MadDog011 (Remote closed the connection)
00:44:48amiconnThen you probably need to add the ability to register a callback in the recording isr
00:45:34jhMikeSthere's already the DMA1 registered callback but audio can't be processed there
00:45:44amiconnWhy not?
00:46:19jhMikeSArent there only 6 samples available in the FIFO? I did try it and it just breaks up.
00:46:44amiconnThe DMA interupt is fired at the end of the DMA transfer
00:47:00amiconn...which is way longer than 6 samples (at least I hope it is)
00:47:09jhMikeSyes. but then you can only process a few samples and have to return
00:47:16amiconnHuh?
00:47:52jhMikeSProcessing audio can take longer than the six samples it would seem
00:47:58amiconnYou need to set up the new dma first in order to prevent fifo overrun. After that you have quite some time for processing...
00:49:04 Part nave7693
00:49:33jhMikeSit makes no provision for that. it's just like the playback. would need a function for that
00:50:06jhMikeSactually would be pretty simple to set up and no plugin hw banging
00:53:20 Quit Rudy4Pez (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
00:53:46amiconnSome plugins even bang the hardware, but this is not encouraged
00:54:25amiconnalpine_cdc is one, and wavplay is another. They hijack interupt vectors.
00:55:08jhMikeSI'm thinking about what to do if the next interrupt comes and it's not done. probably spin lock until the previous one is finished
00:55:15amiconnBut then, wavplay is a proof-of-concept preview, and alpine_cdc is a quite specialised plugin
00:55:51amiconnjhMikeS: Shouldn't it be locked automatically, via the interupt priority thing?
00:56:11amiconn(unless the recording interrupt is non-maskable, but why should it?)
00:56:21jhMikeSif it is, then how will the transfer start from the handler?
00:57:57 Quit TeaSea (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
00:58:26amiconnThe handler can't be called a second time as long as it's executing
00:58:27jhMikeSIf we've started another transfer, it will start while still in the handler, and the next interrupt from that transfer will be blocked? ok, then no worries
00:59:08amiconnInterrupts (at this and lower level) are reenabled by the rte instruction
01:00
01:00:04amiconn...unless it's level 7, then it's non-maskable
01:00:26amiconnBut imho we shouldn't use level 7 for anything without strong reason
01:00:34jhMikeSwith that, latency can be very low indeed
01:01:33amiconnSlightly more than one DMA block I'd think
01:02:18jhMikeSthey're small blocks (128 samples)
01:02:33jhMikeSno real attempt at optimizing those things yet
01:03:08 Join TeaSea [0] (n=thunderc@82.153.195.154)
01:03:16amiconnLatency might go up to nearly 2* dma_block_size. Depends on how long the calulations take
01:04:37jhMikeSthat's ok, it's 5 now, most of it to keep playback clear of the current effect block

02:26:28JdGordonta, exaclty what i was loking for
02:26:54JdGordonwould that sort of keyboard work for the other targets?
02:30:00pixelmathere's one big difference to the other targets (afair) the charcell display only lets you have a limited amount of unusual characters - so I guess that's a great difference to all the others if you think about all the accented letters
02:30:17pixelmaand stuff like that
02:31:45JdGordonthats not such a big deal, because the vk lets you load your own keyboard file whih has as many accented characters as you like. It could work
02:31:54JdGordonHopefully will shrink some code also :)
02:33:08pixelmathat's definitely needed (if you read the logs...)

07:51:30Slasherimorning
07:51:54amiconnSlasheri: Sorry for the ranting last night, in case you read the logs
07:52:38amiconnBut the more I think about it, the more I think the current implementation for large virtual sectors is the wrong approach and should be reverted
07:52:54amiconnSome points:
07:53:17amiconn(1) file.c shouldn't be touched at all. Virtual sectors is a fat only thing and should stay in fat.c
07:53:41SlasheriHmm, but file.c uses directly sectors as unit when measuring things
07:53:52amiconnYes, and one sector is still 512 bytes
07:54:14amiconn(2) None of the sector buffers should need enlarging. The virtual sectors are what their name says - virtual.
07:55:05amiconnThe sector buffers are mainly there because a sector is the smallest addressable unit in the ata protocol
07:55:14Slasheribut then, how fat driver could handle reading and writing if sector size is not enlarged?
07:55:30amiconnLike it does without your commit
07:55:51amiconnThe fat specifies cclusters, and a cluster is usually also multiple sectors
07:55:56Slasheriand all the cache stuff in fat etc..
07:56:17Slasherithat would require quite major change to the driver to support different sector size without changing the units
07:56:18amiconnI tend to see large virtual sectors as an extension to clusters
07:56:41amiconnI think the changes needed are smaller than what you committed
07:57:02Slasherihmm
07:57:24amiconnI think the instability you mentioned is just because putting multiple 2KB buffers on the stack
07:57:49amiconnThe main stack is 8KB in total, and the individual thread stacks are similar or smaller
07:58:00*amiconn wishes Zagor were here...
07:58:07amiconnHe's Mr. fat.c
07:58:45Slasheriok, if you think it can be implemented better by not changing sector size, feel free to revert the commit

08:05:19amiconnI'm a bit undecided. I think that implementing another way is easier when working from the status before the commit, but otoh reverting would mean to back out G5.5/30 support
08:05:37amiconnBagder?
08:09:56amiconnSlasheri: We could even support all possible virtual sector sizes then. Valid sizes are quite limited: 512, 1024, 2048 and 4096

08:11:47amiconnYes, but that's with enlarged buffers, and with file.c knowing about it
08:11:54Slasheriyes..
08:14:54Slasheriat looking fat.c, i see it would take quite a massive change to do it the other way.. but if you see it's even easier, great :)

08:38:39amiconnI remember Zagor speaking about fat.c being cut down from something
08:40:24amiconnSlasheri: Btw, afaics there are 2 buffers in fat.c which can be PHYSICAL_SECTOR_SIZE instead of MAX_SECTOR_SIZE

08:52:24Tyronemaskelland ive always gotta boot into the iriver firmware to play the wma tracks
08:52:46Tyronemaskelli can re-rip the stuff

08:55:45scorchethat is transcoding
08:56:37Tyronemaskellok i see
08:57:11Tyronemaskellhow do i remove the current installed wps and themes ?

09:15:19*petur reads log
09:15:43peturah that will be h1x0 related
09:16:18peturjhMikeS changed lcd gamma which may have caused this... amiconn may know more

09:21:08peturI haven't met any of the devs if that's what you mean ;)
09:21:41peturthe contrast thing has been talked about before, it'll get fixed

09:23:04webguest20petur: ok, I'll wait then
09:23:14mick_linuxand fat32 / vfat formatting on linux is flaky at best, so i may just try it in wine ;)
09:23:17linuxstbOr mkdosfs, or mkfs.vfat (I think they're all the same).
09:23:28rasherNever brought me any trouble
09:23:31linuxstbIt's worked fine for me.
09:24:06linuxstbIt's the fsck which I think is unreliable/non-existent on Linux.
09:24:34jhMikeSwebguest20: one more thing. H120 or H140? Just try move the contrast lighter and see.
09:26:11scorche"Or is the problem H120 specific?"
09:26:21jhMikeSfor my and some others H120 the setting is perfect. maybe the LCDs really vary greatly.
09:26:22mick_linuxcfdisk exists :-P
09:26:25webguest20jhMikeS: H140 actually. I set the contrast so that the text is as black as possible but the screen is not grey
09:26:41rasherLooks too dark on my ihp120
09:26:51scorchehrm...you said it was originally a 120...oh well
09:27:15rasherWell, h120 is the modelname rockbox uses for h120/h140, so that's understandable
09:27:33scorcheyeah...just saying =)
09:27:33jhMikeSamiconn has an H140 and says it's too dark. preglow and I have H120s and found it better...hmmm
09:28:09jhMikeSbut the default contrast needed to be one lighter (27 not 28)
09:28:43jhMikeSlooks like a setting is in order in order to make it work for everyone.
09:29:01jhMikeSok nighty night
09:29:31rasherStill looks a bit on the dark side to me
09:29:47 Part hcs
09:29:57webguest20IIRC the contrast is set to 27 or 28 (default setting). The screen (e.g. file browser) looks nice, just the splash msgs are too dark
09:30:33jhMikeSA scale of solid gray bars should look even (0, 85, 170, 255)
09:30:57*petur sends jhMikeS to bed
09:30:59rasherMaybe the splashes just need to be light grey background?
09:31:48jhMikeSIf the bars are even, things should all be readable as they are for me. The grays need to be set for each user for the best possible image.
09:32:56*jhMikeS has been sent to bed and is about to pass out anyway :)
09:38:28webguest20jhMikeS: do I understand right that solid greys are possible at 0, 85, 170, and 255? What value is used now?

10:36:48peturthe recording jumps a few seconds further
10:38:34peturseeking is borked too... seeked backwards to get the exact timestamp and ended up further in the file (it's one big WAV, 1GB). Tried to seek back 5 minutes as I huessed that is where the glitch was and it just froze

10:44:54preglowkeeps me from killing myself
10:44:59peturthe last two shows I recorded are thrashed. I now have 0% trust in recording code
10:46:08zetry transferring and decoding or using an mp3fixer.. i've had recordings (way back in archos days) that seemed screwed up get fixed by that
10:46:13preglowbut the fact that entire buffers got repeated probably does indicate quite nicely what the bug is
10:46:14peturI'll probably check out some CVS code from this summer (before jhMikeS touched it) and use that as production code
10:46:43blue_lizardhi petur
10:46:53blue_lizardthx for your comment for my patch
10:46:58preglowi've pretty much always said that tapers should use a knows safe version of rockbox until something even more known and safe comes along
10:47:08*petur scratches memory
10:47:10blue_lizardunfortunately i have not understood the two last sentences
10:47:13preglowthe code was pretty nice during the summer, i think

10:49:22peturblue_lizard: what is there you don't understand?
10:50:11blue_lizardI had no choice but to move the file/dir property to a plugin because of the wasted binary size <- what does that mean for me?
10:50:25blue_lizardwhat does that meat at all?
10:50:57peturyour code will never get committed because it will add too much to the binary with little needed functionality
10:51:15[Gino]I'll just ask this again... I asked last night and got no answers... Can you charge an x5 while it is running Rockbox, I mean while it is turned on... I read you can't, but I don't know if that got fixed...Also, does Rockbox support video playback (on the x5) and are there any significant problems with the x5 running rockbox?
10:51:37peturif the whole fileoperations went into a plugin, nobody would bother that it is bigger just to show more info

10:51:58preglownot a bad idea, the disk access needs to be done anyway
10:52:41peturFile/Dir properties would have added 1500 bytes for a non-critical and not often used thing, same goes for file and dir operations
10:52:53blue_lizardcould this plugin be called from the kernel or does the user explicitely call the plugin instead of the build in function?
10:53:12peturwe need a place to put these 'overlays'
10:53:26peturI put mine in as a viewer but that's just a workaround
10:53:42preglowi think a couple of more plugin category directories would be pretty nice too
10:53:44peturblue_lizard: it can be called from the main code
10:53:47preglowlist is getting big
10:54:07peturblue_lizard: look at how I added the file/dir properties
10:54:21blue_lizardpetur: thx i will look at it
10:54:40bluebrother[Gino]: have a look at the PluginMpegplayer wiki page
10:54:53Bagder[Gino]: and yes it charges while Rockbox runs
10:55:07Bagderand no, there are no "significant" problems
10:55:45bluebrotherisn't the x5 charging also hardware? I don't see a reason why it shouldn't work as long as charging is in hardware
10:56:11[Gino]Thanks guys, one more question. ;) Can you change the wallpaper, or does it depend on the theme you are using?
10:56:22preglowit's independent, just do 'set backdrop', afaik
10:56:38 Quit courtc (Remote closed the connection)
10:56:49[Gino]Not sure, but Iread it doesn't charge correctly while it is turned on and running Rockbox.
10:56:51[Gino]Thanks preglow
10:57:25petur[Gino]: copy the correct bmp into /.rockbox/backdrop, browse to it and from the context menu select 'set as backdrop'

11:05:38bluebrotherTyronemaskell: maybe it has black background and the foreground color is also black?
11:05:54Tyronemaskellheheh you might be right
11:06:33bluebrotheror the theme is broken, your fg color was set to black and the theme didn't set it some something different
11:06:33zeif so i bet menu options light up black when you select them too
11:06:55bluebrotherblack on black might be hard to read ;-)

11:09:15[Gino]Oh, found another question... If a theme has album art, can you turn it off, or does it have to be on if it's in the theme?
11:09:30bluebrotheralbum art is unofficial. No idea
11:09:46rasherMaybe it's a Disaster Area stunt-ship theme
11:10:26petur42
11:10:36[Gino]Oh yeah, I forgot you needed th albumart patch... I wonder if the theme would still work without the patch and just not show the album art...
11:11:04bluebrotherjust try it ... I'm not sure if the tag will be shown or not
11:11:21bluebrotherbut I guess the theme will have some elements somewhere off
11:12:16[Gino]Well, I will, but I don't even have the DAP yet. ;) I'm trying to figure out what I should get.

11:18:15Tyronemaskelldo i have to delete each theme one by one ?
11:18:32peturwell if saving the file takes too much time, the PCM buffer would overflow? Or rather not, as DMA would be halted and recording stopped
11:19:07peturmust be encoder buffer overflow

11:24:23linuxstbHopefully that ipodpatcher should detect the sector size used.

11:39:21Tyronemaskellbut how do i get it to work

11:46:38rasherLinux can create all sorts of strange stuff, so why not
11:46:59rasherBut I don't actually know.
11:47:04bluebrotherexcept from 3rd party plugins that are not part of the official rockbox distribution (but in most cases you'll need to compile those yourself), yes.
11:47:08amiconnThis would be great for testing large sector support...
11:47:23rasher -S logical-sector-size
11:47:23rasher Specify the number of bytes per logical sector. Must be a power of 2 and greater than
11:47:26rasher or equal to 512, i.e. 512, 1024, 2048, 4096, 8192, 16384, or 32768.
11:47:43amiconnGreater than 4096 isn't part of the official standard
11:47:53preglowwhat rasher said, then
11:47:56preglow'strange'
11:48:00rasherIt seems Linux is not much interested in the official standard
11:48:34amiconnI'll repartition one of my targets then in order to test
11:48:47amiconnI also have an extra disk I could throw in
11:48:49bluebrotherI'd call that rather "allows the (experienced) user to do stuff outside of the standart ;-)

11:49:17bluebrotherfor testing you could also create a filesystem in a file
11:49:23rasherStandards should be followed. Even when they're limiting.
11:49:29rasherReally
11:49:34*bluebrother agrees

11:49:43peturI'm sure that if Microsoft would do this another explanation would be given to it :p

13:32:21*amiconn always found static arrays way easier than malloc
13:32:24linuxstbGnelik: But that's basically what you'll need to do. You then replace pointers with indexes into that array.
13:33:55GnelikCan't i just make malloc that will return a pointer to some array item???
13:34:53markunlinuxstb: correct
13:36:32markunGnelik: there are some simple malloc implementations in the code.
13:37:43markunlinuxstb: I posted a comment to nuance his story a bit, but it doesn't show up on the site. Maybe he first needs to approve it.
13:38:57linuxstbGnelik: I would also suggest writing your code outside of Rockbox first (i.e. a small standalone C program). That will be easier to test and debug.

14:07:11hsaliakhello , i am trying to install rockbox on my ipod nano from netbsd
14:08:52Bagderand... ?
14:09:32hsaliaki am trying to translate the instructions for linux into something bsd, now it says sdb1 is the firmware partition for linux, however i see 2 partitions only in netbsd, sd0d and sd0e, in netbsd the d partition always represents the full disk, so i have extracted the mbr from that
14:10:06hsaliaknow the firmware.. , has any user done such things from freebsd or any other bsd before? im sure there have been?
14:10:48BagderI know people have used freebsd at least
14:11:18Tyronemaskellone question pls if i load a new theme do i need to load the wps file too ?
14:11:48hsaliakyes if this works surely ill put something in the wiki
14:11:53hsaliakbrb
14:11:54linuxstbhsaliak: The Mac OS X instructions are probably closer to BSD than the Linux ones.
14:14:02markunin FreeBSD my players show up as da0
14:15:32hsaliaklinuxstb: cool ill take a look at that
14:16:28linuxstbThe question is if bsd gives you a device node for partitions of type 0 (which means "empty"). On Linux you do, but on Mac OS X you don't - so on Mac OS X you need the diskdump tool which accesses the first partition via the "whole disk" device node.
14:17:49hsaliaklinuxstb: it doesnt give me the device node. but i have access to the "whole disk" sd0d .
14:18:18hsaliakso ill use diskdump , i'd have to compile it for netbsd though
14:18:22hsaliakthanks!

14:52:20hsaliakhello, is the diskdump mentioned in the ipod nano manual a similar utility to dd? I am trying to install from a BSD. It seems the diskdump is a 3rd party util?
14:53:21linuxstbdiskdump was written (by me) specifically to access ipods from Mac OS to install Rockbox.
14:54:16hsaliakah ok so the 'diskdump' utils i found by googling are some other diskdumps with the same name then
14:54:31hsaliaklinuxstb: i'd be grateful if you could point me to the source
14:54:42linuxstbIt should be on the Mac OS X install page, next to the binary.

I can understand you not wanting to clutter the manual, but I think that info should be there somewhere.

15:24:28n1sWe do ship COPYING in the zip files...
15:25:55amiconnIsn't the gpl included in the manuals? I remember that this was the case with the old manuals...

15:56:15barrywardellit just makes sure only the CPU clears the BSS, gives the cpu and cop separate stacks, makes the BL run from IRAM so it's not overwriting in SDRAM and flushing the cache as appropriate

16:29:43linuxstbAlso, do we need those STUB tests in crt0-pp ? Isn't that just for the iFP gdb builds?
16:30:40barrywardelli was wondering about that. and also when is the DEBUG stuff used?
16:31:08linuxstbhalf_dead: Locked disks haven't been a Rockbox issue for about 3 or 4 years I think - which is why you're not getting much help...

16:32:18half_deadaight
16:33:59linuxstbbarrywardell: Again, probably only on the iFP debug builds.
16:34:52barrywardellthe iFP doesn't use a PP chip, does it?
16:34:59linuxstbNo, a different ARM.

16:40:49markunlinuxstb: I would like to generalise the DAC drivers a bit. I would like to call the functions dac_* because codec_* might be a bit confusing although it is more correct.
16:40:52markunwhat do you think?
16:41:17linuxstbThey are also ADCs...
16:41:25markunyes, I know
16:41:33markunwell, not all of them

16:42:02linuxstbI remember having this conversation before and I think someone suggested audiohw_
16:42:13markunok, I'll go with that
16:42:32linuxstbBut yes, I agree with the idea, and also agree codec_ is confusing.
16:42:34amiconn(German automobile club)
16:42:52markunamiconn: ah yes :)
16:44:11amiconnBut yes, codec is confusing and dac is incorrect, hmm...
16:45:20markunand just audio_ is not very specific
16:45:54linuxstbhwcodec?
16:46:13barrywardelllinuxstb: DEBUG builds don't even compile for H10 and iPod. and STUB builds are only an option for iFP
16:46:23linuxstbbarrywardell: Yes, that's what I thought.
16:46:37markunlinuxstb: might confuse people with the MAS, don't you think?
16:46:58linuxstbCouldn't we use the same name for MAS functions?

18:06:18petursometimes it's so bad that iriver fw refuses to boot
18:06:39LearWhat is the eeprom used for (by Rockbox)? I mean, Rockbox can't just do that by accident, right?
18:06:47peturnothing atm
18:06:49pondlifeDo we have EEPROM writing code at all? Or is it a sideeffect.
18:07:07peturwe do have now but the issue was there before
18:07:19pondlifeOK, so very likely a side effect of some other i/o.

18:19:38amiconnNow I think that implementing it without increased sector buffers is not only possible, but in fact nearly trivial...

18:20:02Slasheriamiconn: hmm, that sounds great

18:46:41bluebrotherjust look at the links

18:46:58Slasheriamiconn: optical out seems to be always on
18:47:01bluebrotherthere are only two links (to the same file) as it's the same table as for the daily builds
18:47:02Slasheriat least the led is
18:47:10n1soh so we have two links nex to each other pointing at the same thing :-)
18:47:12amiconnIt should be on when you set it to off and vice versa
18:47:19Slasheriah, hehe
18:47:54bluebrotherexactly ;-) Easier than dealing with user complaints because the manuals are the same but the builds different ...
18:48:04pixelmapondlife: not exactly I guess - with stopping playback and shutdown there's no problem - but when the unit shuts itself off because of low battery

18:54:29lowlightI've been thinking that maybe playback be easier of the there wasn't a separate codec thread, but rather, the playback engine just calls a function like codec_decode(buf) whenever it needs more data?
18:55:06pondlifelowlight: If we can simplify it then yes, that would be very good
18:55:24pondlifeSorry, haven't actually looked at playback.c in about a month now :(
18:56:01Slasherilowlight: that sounds rather complex.. how codec could handle all events etc.
18:56:13*pondlife thinks there must be a good reason for a seperate codec thread.
18:56:39pondlifeI assume the events would be handled by the audio thread only..
18:57:02Slasherilowlight: hmm, ah.. now i see what you mean
18:57:07lowlightSlasheri: how more complex...let the playback engine handle all events
18:57:17pondlifeVoice?
18:57:28Slasheristill, buffering needs to be done simultaneously with decoding
18:57:42Slasheriand that is the main thing for audio thread to do..
18:58:10pondlifeMaybe the split should be buffering/playback...?
18:58:12lowlightwhere's your new buffering api?
18:58:33Slasherilowlight: haven't had time for that..
18:58:54Slasheriand playback engine seems to have stabilized a bit
18:58:54pixelmapondlife: I don't know but maybe the low battery handling that got commited a while ago prevents such a sudden shutdown on H300 now
18:59:00 Join petur [0] (n=petur@rockbox/developer/petur)
18:59:57lowlightI was thinking that video could also use the playback engine then too...playback would just push some data to the video codec and direct it to the lcd instead of the dsp
19:00
19:00:21pondlifepixelma: I've never risked a low battery situation really. I don't know if I'd expect it to save in such a situation, hard disk writing should be avoided if you're about to die.
19:01:35pondlifelowlight: I like the idea, but speak to lostlogic before doing much on it! I'm sure there must be a reason we didn't do this before.
19:02:20pixelmawell I meant that it didn't save during all the rebuffer periods before - but maybe there's no way to test for you because it will always save before a shutdown
19:03:25lowlightpondlife: I'm not doing much more than thinking :)

21:12:38rasherCassandra: Did you get the mail I forwarded to you
21:13:18unleetanybody have a clue why I cant access rockbox settings on my H10 20gb?
21:13:22Cassandrarasher - yeah.
21:13:34unleeti click "rockbox" and it does nothing
21:13:42Cassandraas it happened, I've been playing about with the installer again.
21:13:43amiconnHi Cassandra :)
21:13:48bluebrotherunleet: you never click "rockbox"
21:13:53amiconnAny news from AT&T?
21:13:55CassandraIt's still not what I'd call finished, but it works.
21:14:03bluebrotherthat's the firmware itself and it will reload rocbox
21:14:05unleetSo, that does nothing?
21:14:36bluebrotherit reboots (but I don'
21:14:36Cassandraamiconn - nah. They totally ignored the letter. After I spend 5 quid sending it inernational recorded too. :(

21:20:10amiconnI moved the definition of MAX_SECTOR_SIZE to config-ipodvideo.h

21:21:51jhMikeSpetur: and as a reference what's the total length of the recording in samples?

21:23:03amiconnHopefully the config sector will be gone soon (as soon as the remaining problems in JdGordon's patch are fixed)
21:23:23peturjust a sec, I'm still figuring out were the glitches are. I can hear them but finding the sample boundary isn't that easy ;)

21:34:37Lars_GBtw little question, what is different in a m4b over a m4a file? afaik DRMed files are .m4s right?

21:37:28markunlowlight: yes, but because it's single platter that max size is limited
21:37:58Lars_Glinuxstb: Nod, I'll see if ffmpeg has any docs on the differences, I wonder if we/I can make m3b work on the rockbox

21:40:13Lars_Gif i don't get track numbers in the title when I browse by artist but I do when I browse by album, I guess I could fix it on my naviconf.cfg file right?
21:40:20Slasherii wouldn't have thought that
21:40:35Lars_GLear: it doesn't it bails with a "codec" error, and I even had to rename it on player for it to be recognized.

21:50:13Lars_GBtw I also bought a Griffin itrip for the nano, I wonder how hard it'd be to reverse eng and implement the serial driver for the CPU and the protocol for remote control once and for all....

21:50:24Lars_GMaybe if I can put a sniffer in between the devices... hmmmm

21:50:54*petur doesn't slap forehead this time, but audacity

22:51:25TommyTottthanks
22:51:34bluebrotherrasher, what do you think about (a) hiding the rockbox.{iriver,ipod,...} file in the "supported" view or (b) making the "music" view the default?
22:52:00amiconnpreglow: That's all that was needed: http://www.rockbox.org/viewcvs.cgi/firmware/drivers/fat.c.diff?r1=1.127&r2=1.131
22:52:13amiconn(plus the multiple mount checks in disk.c)
22:52:36dionoeabluebrother: you should only hide the default one (in case people want to load another file named rockbox.ipod stored in another directory)
22:52:44unleetNot guarunteeing success. Thats just to replace the battery
22:52:46dionoeaor even better, hide only the loaded one (if that's possible)
22:52:57bluebrotherhmm. That's an idea.
22:53:18bluebrotherit's mainly the problem users tend to "click" on that "rockbox folder"
22:53:29TommyTottunleet: i see.. dont have any powersource to charge it like that, so..
22:53:47bluebrotherbut as the database view also only shows music files I thought about simply making the music files view the default
22:53:56unleetI bet you could either buy one or........

23:46:20bluebrotherthe funny thing is the germans going to some english speaking country and not knowing that difference ...
23:46:34jhMikeSpreglow: don't know if you ever saw this: http://www.dspdimension.com/src/smbPitchShift.cpp . Maybe want to give a look?
23:47:14Bagderbluebrother: I can acknowledge that a german I met looked very surprised when I told him it isn't called like that in english ;-)
23:47:35preglowjhMikeS: i think i've seen it, and i think it does phase vocoding

23:47:44bluebrotherI simply call mine "phone" and quite a few looked really strange at me when they realize I'm referring to my mobile
23:47:44preglowyes, indeed
23:47:49preglowi don't want to code a fast fft :/
23:48:27jhMikeSno, why? just the code or it's just too cpu intensive?
23:48:35preglowjhMikeS: both, really
23:48:39bluebrotherI'm pretty sure that word was intended by one of those marketing guys that have no idea about the technical stuff they are advertising
23:48:43preglowjhMikeS: it'll probably suck down a very decent amount of cpu anyway
23:50:06jhMikeSI might find it fun to try it out myself and learn something important in the process anyway.

23:50:15preglowjhMikeS: might not take too long to get it going, though, if you've already got a fixed point fft/ifft

23:53:24jhMikeSI'll probably have to make it up just from the math itself. I don't have anything readily available but that will be beneficial in learning.
23:55:24preglowjhMikeS: don't expect too much from it, though. while it doesn't have as obvious transient artifacts as the time domain one, it does smear them quite badly
