#rockbox log for 2006-12-07

00:00:19SoapAmy - Rockbox excels at those features.
00:00:44linuxstbNatalic1: Forget windows apps, start hacking Rockbox...
00:00:56ArathisPaulPosition: I am
00:01:06Natalic1no, i really dont understand the code well enough
00:01:08ani-adommmmmmmmmmmmm
00:01:52PaulPositionArathis - Okay. So now we'll scramble that sucker. ../tools/scramble -mi4v3 bootloader/bootloader.bin H10.mi4
00:02:18AmyMy last question deals with potentially using rockbox to increase the ipod's accessibility because of my blindness. I've heard that rockbox can read its menu system out loud. WOuld this allow me to navigate through artist/album/genre and even specific songs while rockbox reads where I'm at?
00:02:27scorcheNatalic1: how do you expect to get to know the code well enough except by diving in?
00:02:41Natalic1i dont:))
00:02:45Natalic1i didnt want to
00:02:52Natalic1i wanted to make a windows app that people will use

00:04:47Arathisif your're satisfied with that I'll scramble
00:04:48Natalic1i dont care, just something useful to people
00:04:48PaulPositionArathis - Actually I should have told you warnings are pretty obvious (they span over a long line) and not very common so you could have read it faster. :p

00:04:55cubic_cubeis there someone who could help the cubic cube with OS X + 5g iPod installation?
00:04:58 Quit ani-adom (":")
00:05:02tehsmoyou could write a plugin, I think those are easier to write
00:05:05Arathis...whatever that means and what it's good for
00:05:14Natalic1i dont know the environment
00:05:18Natalic1i am a windows coder
00:05:26tehsmoI think the plugin environment is pretty simple
00:05:27tehsmolike
00:05:30tehsmoa function to draw text
00:05:33tehsmoand one to get keypresses
00:05:36PaulPositionArathis - So it's allright. Did you scramble? If not I left the command just above..
00:05:39linuxstbcubic_cube: New or old 5g, and what size hard drive?
00:05:40tehsmoand file access. .is all you really need
00:05:50ArathisPaulPosition: "...whatever that means and what it's good for"
00:06:20PaulPositionArathis - Only good for not wasting time installing a porked build if it makes errors. ;)
00:06:27Natalic1i want a windows app(more flexible)
00:06:59cubic_cubelinuxstb: old 5g, 60gb, followed installation to the letter (restored to FAT32 on windows pc, etc.) then i get error "Specified partition (0) does not exist"
00:07:11PaulPositionArathis - It doesn't look like there was any problem making the files. So where's it you had trouble?
00:07:29tehsmoso this frequency bug, is it an issue with incorrectly doing frequency scaling on the ARM, or a side effect? or does nobody know
00:07:32linuxstbcubic_cube: What gives you that error?

00:09:51PaulPositionlol. I guess so. wait a second I check on sumthin.
00:10:41linuxstbcubic_cube: Are you definitely using the correct /dev/ filename for your ipod? Also, does your ipod still work normally?
00:11:09AmySoap: Did you see my last query?
00:11:20SoapI think I missed it Amy.
00:11:47SoapOk Amy, I found it.
00:11:57cubic_cubelinuxstb: i know i have the right /dev/ for it, i'll check to see that it works normally
00:12:52SoapAmy, I am not the best person to ask on that. I know Rockbox can read the menus to you, and I believe, stress believe, that you can record Artist, Tracks, Genre names etc. to be read while navigating within the database. Scorche? Do you know?
00:13:13ArathisPaulPosition: still alive? ;)
00:13:32PaulPositionArathis - Yes,
00:13:37scorcheSoap: heh...i was halfway to my 2-key-salute to lock the computer, after which i would leave
00:14:02PaulPositionArathis - Okay. So yes it should be that file, though I think you'll rename it when you put it in the /system/ folder on your DAP.
00:14:21scorcheAmy: if you are still here and no one has answered your question in a few hours, i will help you, but i must go help a client atm =)
00:14:37PaulPositionI wanted to check up on the scrambling code itself (-mi4v3) and there doesn't seem to be a different one for the 20gb :)
00:14:40ArathisPaulPosition: why so? it's the normal h20 .mi4 file
00:15:18PaulPositionArathis - Well no, it's not anymore the 'normal' file, it's the patched one.
00:15:25Arathisbarry's got an 20gb if I remember right
00:15:43Arathisdon't get it
00:16:09 Quit Genre9mp3 ("I don't suffer from Rockbox psychosis. I enjoy every minute of it.")
00:16:29PaulPositionArathis - indeed. What is it you mean? We produce a new bootloader file, with patched code. We scramble it so it can be read when on the DAP. Then we replace the one on the DAP with this one (after having backed it up of course)
00:16:34 Quit secleinteer (Success)
00:16:36PaulPositionArathis - Makes sense yet?
00:16:36cubic_cubelinuxstb: works perfectly normal, i'll try it again
00:16:44SoapAmy, when scorche says "help a client" he means serve a "John"
00:16:46Soap;)
00:16:48Arathiswith normal I mean the OF mi4. but the bootloader I'm using to boot RB atm has of course the same name cause the h10 bootloader itself hasn't been touched

00:17:06scorcheSoap: actually her name is ali...
00:17:28ArathisPaulPosition: clear what I mean now? :)
00:17:29PaulPositionArathis - In the system folder, before you change anything, you should have :
00:17:38scorcheAmy: in the mean time, check out this page: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/VoiceHowto
00:17:58 Quit Amy ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
00:18:04PaulPositionArathis - Original.mi4 (or some such) and H10.mi4 (or H20.mi4 or I don't know how it's named on H10-20gb) right?
00:18:13scorcherighty then
00:18:26CtcpIgnored 1 channel CTCP requests in 0 seconds at the last flood
00:18:26*scorche bops Soap on the head and exits stage right
00:18:59PaulPositionArathis - The file we produced, for dualbooting, will replace the rockbox bootloader, the one file you usually only install once and ever forget about.
00:19:25ArathisPaulPosition: right. and the "H20.mi4" is named H10_20GC.mi4
00:19:46PaulPositionArathis - This is tentative stuff. Right now, on my H10, my player will freeze if I attempt to play a song with 'crossfeed' on.
00:19:55 Quit petur ("sssssssssss---------PLOP!")
00:20:16cubic_cubelinuxstb: it still doesn't work
00:20:25Arathis"File encoded successfully" :)
00:20:33PaulPositionArathis - Good, then it so happens it has the right name out of the box :) So did you scramble it?
00:20:36PaulPositionyeah.

00:22:29ArathisPaulPosition: okay. now I need to replace the RB mi4 on my player with the one I made right? and the iriver one needs to be named what? and can I use the original one or do I need to make something with mi4encode?
00:22:47ArathisI'll backup to my pc
00:23:17PaulPositionArathis - We'll need to do something with mi4 decode indeed, but later. We'll get rockbox running first.
00:23:22 Quit ender` (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
00:23:36Arathis"compile a rockbox install" ? you mean .rockbox folder and rockbox.h10 ?
00:23:44PaulPositionArathis - Exactly.
00:24:29PaulPositionArathis - Because the bootloader, as it is right now, doesn't work with 'pure, unpatched' cvs (ie, the patch also modifies the .rockbox files)
00:24:52ArathisI'll try with my "on the player" files first. barry wanted test about that too
00:25:20PaulPositionArathis - I did test, but go on it might be different :)

00:30:42Arathishehe
00:30:50PaulPositionArathis - You know how to compile a build?
00:31:07PaulPositionArathis - make it from an other directory than bootbuild, like 'build' :p
00:31:23Arathisif it's just ../tools/configure as normal: yes
00:31:31PaulPositionIt is. :)
00:31:52Arathiscause of the scrambled code?
00:32:25PaulPositionArathis : ?
00:33:09ArathisI just wanted to know what is different to the cvs or daily build now
00:33:35PaulPositionArathis - Oh. A few files, I can't remember them all.
00:33:42Arathisokay
00:34:19PaulPositionArathis- Barrywardell would know :p But enough so that you need to build a new build. Not because of the scramble though, the .mi4 file is always 'scrambled'.
00:34:58cubic_cubeif someone can help me with os x and a 5th gen ipod, my "Specified partition (0) does not exist", still
00:38:04PaulPositionArathis - If you're here, while it's building maybe you can tell me if you already have mi4code.exe lying around ?
00:38:23Arathisnope
00:39:02Arathisand an exe wouldn't make sense anyway cause I'm using linux
00:39:08PaulPositionArathis - lol. k.
00:39:48PaulPositionArathis - http://daniel.haxx.se/sansa/mi4code.html
00:40:19PaulPositionArathis - You'll need to compile that somewhere on your install. I'm using XP and vmware..
00:41:13Arathisyou compiled it in vmware?
00:41:49Arathisehm, what came after 'make' again?
00:41:50PaulPositionArathis - Sure did, someone made a great debian crosscompiling environment for vmware.
00:42:04PaulPositionarathis - make zip ?
00:42:38ArathisI'm using such an env here. had problems making arm-elf-gcc crosscompiler as said
00:42:50Arathisthat's why i'm using vmware anyway
00:43:13PaulPositionArathis - vmware on linux? lol. That's cool.
00:44:22PaulPositionArathis - With this build installed you should have a good, functioning rockbox except for the 'crossfeed-that-kills'. Then we'll need to behead the original iriver .mi4 file
00:44:23Arathisway of. would be much easier to make it in native linux
00:44:53PaulPositionArathis - sure would. a debian emulator on debian is weird.
00:45:47Arathisyep
00:45:56PaulPositionyep?
00:46:31markunyep=yes
00:47:21PaulPositionmarkun - lol, thanks.. I know, I was more like asking 'yep, ready' or 'yep, funny' or ... ;)

00:53:34PaulPositionArathis - Good thing. It was expected but nonethless. :)
00:54:10PaulPositionArathis - Either set crossfeed and starta song, or start a song and use WPS context menu to set crossfeed. It should hang with a data abort (you can note the address though :) )
00:54:13Arathismeantime I'll try compiling mi4code
00:54:25PaulPositionShould be pretty quick, it's a single-file source.
00:54:35Arathishope so :)
00:55:25Arathisthat isn't rockbox related so I can compile where I want, right?

01:01:50Arathisthank god I don't use crossfeed
01:02:30PaulPositionArathis - Okay, that original iRiver .mi4 file, give it a real obvious name *other* than original.mi4 (like maybe iRiverOriginal.mi4).. And make a copy into that place you put mi4code
01:03:00PaulPositionArathis - Noted. I must say 'crossfeed' is the best thing in rockbox. It changes the soundscape so much! :)
01:03:21ArathisI don't really like it, so ..
01:03:26PaulPositionno problem
01:04:02Arathisokay, what's next than?

01:08:55PaulPositiongood, that one goes into /system/ and then you can reboot.
01:09:25PaulPositionarathis - Then either you let rockbox boot, or you press left (bit like you press right to go in usb mode)
01:10:10Arathislets see ..
01:10:15PaulPositionArathis - Last thing. Turning off from the Official Firmware doesn't turn off completely (you should remember that from before rockbox!) so you'll need to reset (pinhole) to save batteries/get back into rockbox.
01:11:22Arathis:D works

01:12:37Arathishoping for those in rockbox now and being happy
01:12:42PaulPositionArathis - Of course it does. Oh, one last thing : if you use the 'music' folder to store your songs, when you go into original firmware it will 'hide' it again. Back in rockbox you either have to use 'database/tagcache' or 'see all files' to get the folder to show up.
01:12:43Arathisthanks for the help PaulPosition

01:15:14Arathisof course
01:15:31Arathispeople who really want it are around irc anyway ;)

01:15:50PaulPositionArathis - true enough :p
01:16:20PaulPositionArathis - Hopefully around the time his patch is stable and made into cvs. :)
01:16:42Arathismore hopefully the problems with the ipod's bootloader will be fixed soon so the patch can be submitted to cvs
01:16:48Arathis*g*

01:17:49cubic_cubecould someone give me some quick help here please?
01:18:50PaulPositionArathis - But once you know how, it's a matter of ten minutes building a bootloader AND a new rockbox..
01:18:59ArathisPaulPosition: btw: what is/are the essential steps/cmds to make the cvs source ready for the new bootloader?
01:19:35Arathisbut bootloader doesn't need to be build every time, right? "one and for all" is good enough
01:20:34cubic_cubehello?
01:20:42PaulPositionArathis - I think but that's an interresting question. :) Effectively, just downloading cvs, reapplying patch and compiling the regular build should be enough.

01:38:06cubic_cubeok

01:44:17cubic_cubeAAC, no crossfade, like a tenth of a second long
01:44:25cubic_cubelong enough to be really annoying
01:45:38PaulPositionDunno, sorry. I still suggest you have a look around the bugtracker.
01:46:25tupacan i install rockbox over ipodlinux?
01:47:11tupa‎i installed ipodlinux but it has a laggy mp3 player, i saw that rockbox goes real time
01:51:54PaulPositioncubic_cube - I'm sorry but it seems AAC files aren't 'natively gapless' in that the format isn't gapless but programs such as iTunes use either id3tag-like info or database to store cue position for those songs.
01:52:12PaulPositioncubic_cube: can't say for sure, just relaying info from some thread on forum.
01:53:38linuxstbYes, I don't think our AAC codec makes any effort to strip the leading and trailing silence from within an AAC file.

05:09:28terriblyineptNot a lot. I've just been reading a lot about Rockbox lately and playing with it on an old ihp120, and wanted to see if there would be anyone about to talk at me about the h10 or just Rockbox in general.
05:09:42terriblyineptNot really as for troubleshooting. Just breezeshooting.
05:10:11PaulPositionWhat is it you would like to know about H10? I can't go *real* technical but I do use one, so..
05:10:38terriblyineptAre you currently using Rockbox on it? And what particular kind is it?
05:11:21PaulPositionH10 5gb, MTP. I do use rockbox yeah. :p
05:12:32PaulPositionRockbox works well enough, but it's not yet optimized if that's what you're after.. Battery life sucks (but then it does on all players using the portalplayer/ARM chipset which hasn't been totally figured out yet)
05:13:05PaulPositionRadio and recording aren't working yet either. But dualbooting is on the way so the official firmware will be there as a workaround while waiting for the functionalty.
05:13:12terriblyineptDo you have any idea how battery life compares, from personal or other experience, to the iRiver firmware?
05:13:35terriblyineptActually, I wondered if you knew anything about possible strategies being taken towards working out a dualboot system for the H10.
05:13:56PaulPositionFrom my experience, on a 5gb that the booklet said would do 12hours (OF) I got around 9 and a half with OF and get between 4 and 5 with rockbox at the moment.
05:14:06terriblyineptI'm actually interested in sharpening up my skills a bit and getting in on development, but I have to wait for at least one of my H10s to actually arrive.
05:14:17PaulPositionAlbeit it's been a while I haven't benchmarked the batteries for real, so maybe some progress been made I haven't seen.
05:14:20terriblyineptOF?
05:14:26PaulPositionOriginal Firmware
05:14:42terriblyineptAh. Sorry. Not all that familiar with certain jargon.
05:15:36PaulPositionTerriblyinept - I'm certainly aware of dualboot. The head guys on the H10 ports have got something working which I've just been testing today. −− Still pretty shakey and unstable though.
05:15:37terriblyineptI read about radio and recording not really being worked on at the moment, but I'd consider dualbooting an obvious priority that would at least temporarily solve that problem, along with being a little more important on its own.
05:16:11PaulPositionTerribly inept - But they know there's some problem and I think in a few days, dualboot should be at least viable (if technically demanding) for end user.
05:17:07terriblyineptWhat do you mean by 'technically demanding'?
05:18:28PaulPositionTi - Not very demanding... It demands to change both the rockbox build AND the bootloader (a file you usually only install once), plus to use a small utility to 'decrypt' a file (the original firmware). I'll be writing a tutorial on this that should appear on misticriver forums when Barrywardell thinks he could announce his patch in a more public way.

05:24:25PaulPositionIs it a HUGE log?
05:24:46Reio4hmm, about 400 tracks

05:26:40cubic_cubefor anyone who cares, the iTunes restore did work just fine
05:27:12Reio4then it scrobbled two random tracks, said Sync Complete, and deletes the logfile
05:27:22PaulPositionIf you log onto your last.fm page do you see some of those backlogged songs appearing on most_recent (ie, maybe it doesn't hammer the site at more than, say, 5 hits a second)

05:28:11 Quit cubic_cube ("Royal Ra<in:b;ow!")
05:28:32PaulPositionerio4 - It only scrobbled two? Hmmm, and did last.fm say something about spam protection or timestamps?
05:29:25PaulPosition(ie, if you listen on your DAP to songs at 3 in the afternoon, get home, winamp some music and THEN scrobble your DAP, the songs from before the winamp session won't get logged and will be seen as 'spam'.
05:30:05PaulPositionMight not be your problem, but it's good to know anyway.
05:30:33Reio4Didn't see a message that mentions spam, but it does fit what I did (played about 400 songs on my DAP during the last two weeks, and about 200 on my media center, including just 30 mins ago)
05:31:49PaulPositionReio4 - That would be it then.. I would try not playing from the computer, listening to three or four songs on the DAP and scrobbling them again to confirm.
05:32:36Reio4Will do, thanks. Wish I knew that before, though.
05:32:54PaulPositionReio4 - They trying to stop scriptkiddies overloading the servers with backlogs to become top fans of the latest dance-music bimbo...
05:34:37terriblyineptPP - That's certainly one way of phrasing it. :)
05:34:56PaulPositionheh.. :p
05:35:20PaulPositionThey don't fancy being Mozart's top fan so..
05:38:35terriblyineptPP - What do they think causes the battery problems with Rockbox and the portalplayer/ARM chipset, at this point? Or perhaps I should ask first, how -can- Rockbox improve battery life? Are we talking a matter of more efficiently programmed software, or something based more on how the hardware is directly used?
05:39:33PaulPositionterriblyinept - Answer 2)... The portalplayer chipset used in h10 (and most ipods before the last few ones) and the sansa e200, hasn't been properly figured out yet.
05:39:54PaulPositionSo there might be hardware we don't need and could switch off.
05:41:04PaulPositionThe second cpu (rather, the co-processor) hasn't been really used well yet, either. So the main cpu is running high freq. We don't know wether using both would be better or worse for batteries.
05:41:59PaulPositionterriblyinept - stuff like that. The fact that the ADC is noisy as hell makes the scrollpad and the volt-meter erratic as hell, too.
05:42:33PaulPositionBut it's pretty useable anyway, I wouldn't go back to original firmware just yet. (though I'm happy for dualboot that's on the way)

06:19:20terriblyineptPaulPosition - A couple of questions, then (and sorry for the delay): 1) Why do you think it is that the portalplayer people are unwilling to share a bit more about their device, at least in terms of possibly getting more out of it, with open source folks versus Apple or any other for-profit organization that utilizes their hardware? 2) Is it the case that faster battery drain tends to wear out a particular battery more easily?

06:20:59PaulPositionterriblyinept - 1) Selling chips by the truckload versus catering to folks who buy used on ebay might have to do with it. 2)I wouldn't know.. For all I know, newer kind of batteries are mostly succeptible to heat (ie, charging too fast, etc.).
06:21:52jrockwayi think what it comes down to is that apple pays them to not share specs with others
06:21:59jrockwayhow apple benefits, i don't know
06:22:24PaulPositionterriblyinept - Portalplayer's been bought by nvidia recently. But it's not like they have a much better open mindset about sharing specs and firmware/software-devlopment kits..
06:22:39jrockwayheh, that's a different issue
06:22:52jrockwaynvidia won't open their drivers because they know they're violating ATI's patents

06:23:17terriblyineptBut hell, does Rockbox or any open source software really pose a -threat- to companies like this? And rockway, do you think Apple really needs to pay them not to, for that reason?
06:23:27jrockwayi don't think so
06:23:36terriblyineptWell, intellectual property is a pretty gray area anyway.
06:23:37PaulPositionlol. No matter what, they aren't going to open a gaping hole in their 'no specs sharing' wall even if ATI got nothing to do with digital audio players.. :(
06:23:39jrockwaythey sold you the ipod for $300, who cares what you do with it afterwards
06:24:01jrockwayrockbox doesn't do a very good job of locking you into proprietary crippled formats though
06:24:09jrockwaythat doesn't sit well with apple's business model
06:24:18terriblyineptThat's what I mean. Most people aren't out there building their own DAPs.

06:26:23terriblyineptWell, I understand why there tends to be inherent superiority in open source projects, as long as they generate enough interest. A business designs something to turn a profit, not to do the best it can and should do.

06:33:39PaulPositionTerriblyinept - For all I heard, lithium cells (like I have in H10) shouldn't be fully discharged/charged but rather used as is convenient for you. True or not I don't know, so I still do a full cycle once a week...(not so full as I don't use gadget to really trickle out the last few volts of charge, when my DAP says "enough" it's enough for me) :p

06:39:55PaulPositionGood enough then, I hope :)

06:50:51webguest65i gave for present a portable dvd player to my brother who lives in England i live in Southamerica i was stupid enough to give it with my iriver h320 ac adapter
06:52:02webguest65i kept the iriver with the dvd adapter and a week he was gone i charged it and voila!!!!! a flash came and nothing happened no charging screen no nothing and then i realized!!!!
06:52:34webguest65i see my brother 1 time every year
06:52:52terriblyineptHm. You're saying you tried to charge it with the DVD adapter? I don't quite understand.
06:53:39webguest65yes i though i gave him the dvd adapeter but the one i gave him was my iriver adapter
06:54:50webguest65and i used the dvd adapter to charge the iriver and it transformed my screen dark cant see nothing but a little bit
06:55:39webguest65no im charging it with a lower voltage adapter 4.5 volts from a sony diskman
06:56:02webguest65but i want to recover my lcd color back
06:56:08terriblyineptWell, I'm no expert, but you might have hurt the thing beyond the point of my being able to help. I'm not even sure how one would go able testing to see what might have been harmed by that. I would hope just the battery.
06:56:15 Quit ptw419 ()
06:57:15terriblyineptIf you think the screen has been harmed by charging it with the wrong adapter (which you should never do, by the way, at least by my understanding) I think it's -possible- to get a replacement LCD screen for the h320, but there may be other problems with the hardware, too. Possibly or probably the battery itself, as well.
06:57:36webguest65the funny thing is that it works but its to dark
06:59:10webguest65i bough mine in new york 3 years ago and used european firmware so i could watch videos and the damn thing still survives after a shocking blast od a portable dvd adapter
07:00
07:00:04webguest65and there it is!!!!! voila!!!! charging from either a 4.5 v sony diskman or throug usb but dark
07:00:06terriblyineptHm. Well, I would suggest you watch the battery life, but try to get a replacement screen, if you feel you have the skills to install one. Try the forums on misticriver.net, though, this isn't so much a Rockbox specific problem, it seems.
07:02:31webguest65has rockbox some kind of a firmware for it?
07:03:20webguest65i heard from a post it has a menu that could change some things maybe it could enable a backlight lcd from my unit
07:04:04webguest65if the lcd would be burnt or lost i could never see anything but i do

07:10:36terriblyineptWell, the backlight might be burnt out. I'm no expert. You can try Rockbox. I'm not sure that Rockbox at this point could really hurt things more, although you don't want to try flashing the firmware on a low battery, or even a damaged one. I think that can risk bricking your player.
07:12:37webguest65terriblyinept can u actually play DOOM on iriver?
07:13:16terriblyineptI think if there's a problem with how dark things are without you changing any settings, there probably is a hardware problem. Even if your player is a tough little customer.
07:13:59webguest65yeah there is a hardware problem
07:14:08terriblyineptSo I hear. Haven't tried it myself, as it seems like it'd be awkward on the tiny screen. I prefer simpler games if I all I have is such tiny controls. But this is stuff you can probably find out on Rockbox/misticriver forums or on the Rockbox web site.
07:15:44webguest65i really harmed my first and only mc-juckebox doing that stupid move
07:18:03webguest65ok whats the first thing i have to do then?
07:18:42webguest65download rockbox, reset, format, install?
07:18:49terriblyineptAgain, I'm not expert, so I won't advise you on what specifically to do other than go to http://www.misticriver.net and browse through their forums and look for some topics on repair.
07:19:13terriblyineptThere'll be a lot more people available there to help you, and they'll probably give you better help than I can provide.

10:08:48jhMikeSbut calling yield from an IRQ is _really bad__ no?

10:42:42mick_linuxhmmm, no installer in cvs yet (or i'm looking in the wrong place)
10:44:42Bagderno installer in cvs yet
10:45:23mick_linux:-(
10:45:26Bagdersee http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/RockboxUtility
10:45:29LinusNjhMikeS: yes, it is wrong to stop the recording like that in sys_poweroff(), plain and simple
10:46:17amiconnjhMikeS: Hehe, recording and button processing is not quite as it should be
10:46:23GnelikBagder: but no info that their use was dissallowed
10:46:40Bagderno, but without permission it isn't allowed
10:46:49amiconnOn hwcodec, when being in recording screen ready to record, and then the idle poweroff kicks in, the mpeg thread panics
10:46:52habanatried to make pics but they all suck
10:47:04habanaeven with a scanner (for sansa)
10:47:05mick_linuxah so the code is available... thought i'd have to wait on her to commit it
10:47:24Bagdermick_linux: I don't know the status of it though
10:49:28mick_linuxwell i'll have a look at the code and see if it will be feasable to add what i was planning (or if i should just use the functionality)
10:49:51amiconnjhMikeS: [10:03:10] <jhMikeS> petur: it causes an interrupt handler to call yield <== OUCH!!
10:49:55mick_linuxbut i'm also not sure how much the code has changed in a year
10:49:56peturamiconn: don't we disable idle powerdown when in prerec?
10:50:15amiconnPrerecording, maybe. Not when prerecording isdisabled
10:50:21peturah
10:50:32Bagdermick_linux: that code was put there by here just a few days ago
10:50:37Bagderby her even
10:50:50jhMikeSI'm thinking the event should be broadcast and things can handle it nicely
10:51:08mick_linuxBagder: i must be getting old -i forgot what year we are in :)

10:52:19BagderI'm not thinking about it at all ;-)
10:52:28Bagderbut yeah, I think we should
10:52:35Bagdermove
10:52:47mick_linuxit worked great for us (the move)
10:52:55amiconnjhMikeS: [10:31:27] <jhMikeS> H300 has the same timeout issue right? <= Don't think so
10:53:07Bagderthe only prob is a busload of existing scripts using cvs
10:53:08mick_linuxbut well i want integration w/ the moz suite of tools (cvs only)
10:53:15amiconnAfaik we don't enable the hard shutdown timeout in the pcf for H300
10:53:23mick_linuxBagder: it may not be worth the hasstle
10:53:34amiconnMaybe we should...
10:53:36jhMikeSamiconn: doesn't the H300 have a pcf50606? It doesn't auto standby in 8s?
10:53:54amiconnH300 does have pcf50606
10:55:17jhMikeSBut...? It's chip doesn't cause standby in 8s after a 1s key press or does it not receive that signal?
11:00
11:01:34amiconnYou mean ONKEY1S?
11:01:53amiconnThe H300 has separate ON and OFF buttons, unlike the X5
11:05:45jhMikeSI wonder how it's wired cause 1s low on the ONKEY line, well, you know. Was thinking of resetting the timeout on the first press only to let things take their sweet time but not disable that little safety net that often obviates the need for using the reset hole.
11:06:55***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
11:07:37amiconnOn don't shutdown a H300 with the ON key...
11:07:43amiconnYou...
11:11:51*jhMikeS guesses it's wired up quite differently then and off isn't hooked directly to the ONKEY pin
11:17:17*mick_linux suggests some options that are better than: Build (N)ormal, (D)evel, (S)imulator, (B)ootloader, (M)anual, (V)oice
11:17:30mick_linuxwhat is the difference between Normal and Devel?
11:17:47Bagderdevel allows you to set different build options
11:17:59Bagderlogf enabled being perhaps the most used
11:18:13mick_linuxok
11:18:28mick_linuxso if i just want to build it i take it that "N" is fine
11:18:32Bagderyeps
11:18:37jhMikeSI guess SYS_POWEROFF can be received through buttons so the recording screen can pick that off and terminate
11:20:17Slasheriif you mean SYS_POWEROFF received as an event, that wont work directly
11:20:46Slasheriand recording thread might not have time enough before power dies, so it should be handler somehow
11:21:03Slasheri*handled
11:22:07SlasherijhMikeS: probably that should be handled in the shutdown handler in misc.c

11:28:44linuxstb_Try "compile" or "compiling"
11:29:00mick_linuxi think that i'm alright w/ what i have right now, but i'd like to double check :)
11:29:00linuxstb_Or the docsindex page.

11:29:36jhMikeSof course nothing's written in stone and I'll be pleased to rewrite whatever bits give the slickest solution. yeah, the shutdown handler might be better...hmmm. SWCODEC normally does stops without asynchronously so there will need to be a way to wait from the outside (calling audio_stop_recording twice in a row would work :))

13:55:36preglowi'd contest point 2, really
13:56:18preglowwavpack's coding noise is just good old noise shaped quantisation noise, which is very much comparable to mp3's horrible freq glitching
13:56:31preglowbut then again, the bitrates aren't in any way comparable anyway
13:56:49amiconnpreglow: I was thinking about flac on SH1
13:56:55pregloweh, take two: "which is very much preferable to mp3's horrible freq glitching"
13:57:31amiconnWith 11MHz clock, we have about 125 clock cycles to process one sample (44.1kHz stereo)
13:57:49amiconnIt should be possible to get the lpc decoding down to ~40 cycles sample.
13:58:03preglowyup
13:58:07preglowand not all frames are lpc
13:58:11amiconnBut the rice decoding (?) is what makes me worry
13:58:13preglowthe fixed functionality is way cheaper
13:58:33amiconnIt uses several shift-by-n statements...
13:58:35preglowthe rice decoding will no doubt be the tricky part
13:58:51Genre9mp3So.. does anyone know if rockbox's WV decoder plays lossy .wv files as well? In addittion, if yes, is it able to play them "losslessly" when a .wvc is present? I really like the whole idea to tell you the truth
13:58:55preglowyou're wishing they included that barrel shifter now, eh? :)
14:00
14:00:06amiconnI wonder whether there is good reading about rice coding. Perhaps it's possible to optimise this
14:00:33preglowrice coding is a very popular scheme, so good docs should be about somewhere
14:00:37preglowi don't know much about it, however
14:01:42amiconnShift-by-n in C is a subroutine call. Unsigned costs ~16 cycles, signed is a bit more expensive
14:02:48preglowwhat does flac use?
14:04:43amiconnIt seems like there are both signed and unsigned shifts. This stuff uses multiple nested macros :/
14:05:13amiconn...and inline functions
14:05:53amiconngolomb.h and bitstream.h are the relevant files afaics
14:06:09daurnimatorGenre9mp3: no one will answer you!

15:03:24BagderI don't think so

16:12:05Bonusbartusbecause I have a 7 month old h340 and I got some problem with my battery. I first noticed it after I updated from a july build to an october build, and after searching the forums on mysticriver I see I'm not the only one with problems, coinsidence I hope??
16:12:08fasmaieHello, do the trackCount and rating features work on the H320?
16:12:28Bg3rBonusbartus: what are the symptoms like ?
16:13:15Plouj-(found it)
16:13:53Genre9mp3I've noticed some different charging behavior on H300 lately, too... It seems now that while charging the battery level easily gets at around 98% and remains there for some time, but then again, h300 charging is hardware controlled
16:14:12Bonusbartuswell, first thing I noticed was that after I plugged the player in at night it fully charges, but after the battery is full it started to discharge (slowly) in the morning battery was everyday at 94%
16:14:55Bonusbartussecond thing is worse, when I fully charged my battery and plug it into usb for a filetransfer the battery dies in a few minutes (battery problem or hdd problem?)

16:16:06Bonusbartuswhen I wait a few minutes I can restart my player and battery looks 60% full, listening to music it works for about 3 hours
16:16:42BonusbartusBluebrother: ^^ already said that :P but wrote your nick wrong... but yeah I got it:)
16:17:11bluebrotherah, I just returned and looked only if someone highlighted me ;-)
16:17:39BonusbartusBg3r, now I reflashed original firmware but battery is still bad...
16:18:03Genre9mp3Bonusbartus: It just seems that your battery is dying
16:18:59Bg3rBonusbartus: Genre9mp3 is right
16:19:23Bg3ri had exactly the same symptoms and at the end replaced the battery
16:19:44BonusbartusGenre9mp3: yeah I know, but I find it strange that my h120 (2,5years old) still works for 12 hours and my h340 has serios problems after 7 months... but I think the strangest thing is that there are lots of people with bad battery life lately
16:20:17Bg3ryeah, there are lots...
16:20:41Bonusbartusand, I saw on the misticriver forum (norbusans build), that someone complained of shorter battery life after a build in august...
16:21:13Genre9mp3Bonusbartus: Did he made a battery bench?
16:21:29Bonusbartusdon't know, but I noticed the same thing on that build...

16:23:37BonusbartusGenre9mp3, I know, but do you think it could be caused by either rockbox or one of the patches?
16:24:15bluebrotherBonusbartus: any idea where I can get hands on the cable of a remote? ebay doesn't seem to be useful for that
16:24:28Bg3rBonusbartus: my h340's battery got fscked up after an year and half

16:26:06Genre9mp3Album art patch in its current form keeps spinning the disk all the time AFAIK, and I don't know what's the case with that multi-font patch
16:27:03bluebrothertoo bad ... looks like the cable is the same for the PMP550 which was sold on ebay some time ago, but I missed that auction
16:27:04BonusbartusBg3r: yeah but that is twice the time mine worked good, and it didn't slowly weaken, but just didn't work good anymore after e few days..
16:27:23Genre9mp3Speaking of remotes.... I miss most of plugins in that screen
16:27:27bluebrotherwhy can't they use something standard? *hmpf*
16:27:37BonusbartusGenre9mp3: cant do that, battery life is bad now with all build
16:27:50Genre9mp3Would a workaround on this be "easy"?
16:28:01BonusbartusGenre9mp3: and I got the norbusans build without multifont patch
16:28:38Genre9mp3Bonusbartus: I think a replacement is what you certainly need now
16:28:49Genre9mp3battery replacement that is
16:29:09Bonusbartusbluebrother: Iriver europe (in germany) still sells the h100 remotes, I think you should phone them and ask if they wanna help you, my experience with them is very good...
16:29:13 Quit bluey- ("Leaving")
16:30:22BonusbartusGenre9mp3, yeah, I am going to rma my player this week, but I just wanted to mention the problem because many people complain about it lately and I wouldn't want my new battery to die in a few days :P
16:30:51Genre9mp3So.. as I was saying about remotes... since most of plugins are adapted for Archos displays, and Archos screen is smaller than iriver remotes, would a hack be easy to make the Archos plugins work on iriver remotes?
16:31:12Genre9mp3Bonusbartus: Why RMA the player? Why not just buying a new battery yourself?
16:32:19Bonusbartusbecause RMAing is free, and if it isn't the battery itself but the mainboard they can repair it for me + I don't have any warranty left when I open it and plug a custom battery in
16:32:34Bonusbartusand battery life was 16 hour for me and thats enough for me :)

16:37:47Genre9mp3fasmaie: What about eBay?
16:37:58fasmaieWhy not indeed....same problem
16:38:11fasmaieEbay seems to be the only option
16:38:24preglowamiconn: i can't remember, any reason why we don't use dma for ata on iriver?
16:38:33fasmaieI've been keeping my eye out for a good deal.....what would be a fair price for one?
16:38:34Bonusbartusfasmaie: can't you buy one in europe? the Iriver europe online shop still sells them
16:39:17fasmaieI looked at the UK site...they don't seem to list them
16:40:37fasmaieAha! Found it
16:40:37Genre9mp3preglow: We don't? AFAIK we do
16:40:47preglowGenre9mp3: i'm pretty sure we don't
16:41:02preglowat least i don't see why amiconn fixed his asm loop if we do
16:41:49amiconnpreglow: I tried ata dma yesterday, check the logs
16:41:55preglowk
16:42:16amiconnQuick rationale: It works, as long as we don't use auto-align, but then it's slower than the optimised asm
16:42:29amiconnEnabling auto-align makes it lose data
16:43:35amiconnThat makes no sense to me
16:43:55amiconnIf we're reading too fast, we should get the same word twice occasionally

16:47:47amiconnGenre9mp3: But what we cannot do is running 2 independent plugins at once, as there is only one GUI thread
16:47:52Genre9mp3amiconn: Sorry if this sounds silly, but do the plugins use completely different code depending on target?
16:48:34preglowGenre9mp3: do you mean c code or asm code?
16:48:36amiconnThe source code is the same apart from things like adapting resolution, depth, buttons
16:48:42preglowGenre9mp3: c code? perhaps. asm code? certainly
16:48:52amiconnC source I mean
16:48:58preglowsome source code might differ depending on target, probably for optimising
16:50:06Genre9mp3Well... as I'm thinking it, game and demo plugins could be easily get ported on remotes based on Archos versions... of course I don't expect to have rvf on iriver remotes ;)
16:50:41Paul_the_NerdI personally would rather see the remote always show the RWPS if that were possible.
16:50:55Paul_the_NerdAs long as it's not a game that requires the remote (two player, and whatnot)
16:50:57Genre9mp3Of course... the main LCD should be disabled by choice
16:51:29Genre9mp3Paul_the_Nerd: Wouldn't this be tricky? To have plugin in one screen and WPS in the other?
16:52:06Paul_the_NerdTricky in what way?
16:52:41Genre9mp3draw 2 completely different screens at the same time
16:52:48Paul_the_NerdWe already have two different WPSes displaying concurrently as it is.
16:52:57 Quit fasmaie ()
16:53:33amiconnGenre9mp3: That's not possible with the current multi-screen gui concept as I already said
16:53:55amiconnWe only have one gui thread, and hence you can run only one plugin at a time
16:54:07Genre9mp3amiconn: yes... that's what I've just said to Paul
16:54:28Genre9mp3I was thinking of disabling the main screen when drawing remote plugins
16:54:28Paul_the_NerdActually, not quite.
16:54:33amiconnWhat would be relatively simple is adapting the plugins so that they display on both screens in parallel
16:54:51amiconnSome plugins already do this

16:55:47Paul_the_NerdGenre9mp3: No, I meant, you said two things can't be drawn at once, which is a different concept from what amiconn's saying.
16:55:50Genre9mp3amiconn: Sounds interesting :)
16:56:18amiconn..but not in parallel with another task using the timer, i.e. not in parallel with rvf or grayscale lib on the main lcd (H1x0)
16:56:27Paul_the_NerdYou could have two very different things displaying, easily, it would just have to be one source doing the displaying.

17:11:35netmasta10btdo we know where the adc3515 is mapped to?
17:11:39Genre9mp3Oh...but then why fast scrolling seems blurry on my remote?
17:12:30amiconnThat has nothing to do with the frame rate, but with the lcd panel itself
17:12:57amiconnThe lcd panel being somewhat slow is actually good, a very fast panel would flicker like hell with our greyscale method
17:13:00Genre9mp3ah... well, that's what I had in mind the first place... sorry
17:13:31Genre9mp3hmmm...your last statement made me even more curious! :)
17:18:24ivirixhey guys, does anyone have experience with building a firmware for gigabeat Fxx series?
17:18:33amiconnThe bad thing would be that on ticking irivers, greyscale and rvf on the remote would cause buzzing, because the ticking reduction would have to be disabled while running greyscale / rvf.

19:25:14bluebrotherI already downloaded the template from the gnu website but failed to find the time looking further into it
19:25:36bluebrotherI think we could have a chapter in the appendix "licenses"
19:25:47tucozgood idea
19:26:00bluebrotherwhich introduces into the topic a bit ("manual is gfdl ... rb is gpl ...")
19:26:14bluebrotherand have the licenses as sections.
19:26:18tucozor maybe that could come first?

19:26:48tucozYes. in the beginning of the manual

19:26:54tucozoh
19:27:14tucozlike that. hmm. That might work as well
19:27:16bluebrotherno, that'd be the wrong place imo.
19:27:48bluebrotherbut we could simply add a sencence in the introduction ("... this is free software, please see appendix <foo> for details")

19:29:18tucozHmm. in what way would you like them changed?
19:29:53bluebrothere.g. the links in the pdf structure view don't work
19:30:28bluebrotherand the caps for the section titles. Should be at least small caps, or simply the face that is used for all sections
19:30:49tucozah. things like that should be changed, yes. Maybe we should only link to the license itself, and not to every single subsection of it.
19:30:55bluebrotherso, mostly using \section-s
19:30:56tucozThat is, in the index
19:31:11tucozNot index the subsections
19:31:11bluebrotheragreed. Should be completely sufficient.
19:31:34bluebrothercurrently they are indexed by adding specials, not by the use of sections etc.

22:00:27n1sand i don't think we'll ever get anywhere if we try to agree on settings that everybody like, I would rather see defaults that make it as easy as possible for newcommers.
22:00:41amiconnE.g. cvs rockbox for archos players doesn't have disk poweroff at all, and that's for a reason, even though the hardware is capable of powering off the disk (except the very early models)
22:01:10amiconnThe reason is that _some_ players crash when re-enabling the power from off state
22:01:21tucozbut for players gaining battery life, shouldn't those be defaulted to use this setting?
22:01:38n1sthat is an example where different defaults may be a good idea
22:01:52amiconnMine doesn't, and my own build does have disk poweroff, and I have it enabled of course
22:01:59n1sI always use it on my H300 ant it works like a charm
22:02:00tucozWith the range of targets these days, we should be able to fine tune the settings shipped.
22:02:09Kasperlespeaking of the GPL. any news on the ebay business?
22:02:42amiconnI guess none of the newer models have problems with disk poweroff, and neither the archos recorder range has
22:02:52amiconnSo imho this option should be always enabled
22:02:58tucoz+1
22:03:25tucozdidn't your test reveal quite an improvement in battery life with this enabled?
22:03:26amiconnOn player cvs doesn't have the option, and people building themselves should know what they're doing
22:03:35amiconnYes of course
22:03:39n1swould that patch be accepted? maybe I have a project for tomorrow :-)
22:03:57amiconnIt saves the hdd standby current when the disk isn't needed, i.e. most of the time
22:04:24tucozdoes it save battery on the 2MB ram players as well?
22:04:30amiconnsure
22:04:51tucozcool. Then it's a win win
22:05:16preglowwhy not just remove the entire option?
22:05:20tucozhehe
22:05:24PaulPositionAnyone knows if the info->debug->tagcache entry is actually looking at 'database' or if it's linked wrong..? I can't seem to initialize DB, it never commits, so I took a look but "progress: -1% (0 entry)" sounds weird.
22:05:31tucozcure the optionitis a little
22:05:35preglowindeed
22:05:35amiconnpreglow: I also thought about that
22:05:52amiconnOne tiny drawback of disk poweroff is that the spinup takes slightly longer
22:05:53n1spreglow: that's even better :-)
22:06:00preglowamiconn: i don't think anyone'd notice
22:06:11tucozpreglow, believe me. someone will
22:06:13preglowi checked for a difference myself, and it's not very big
22:06:18amiconn..because power has to be enabled first, allowed to stabilise, and then send the start command
22:06:29amiconnHalf a second or so
22:06:37preglowyeah, and that really is almost nothing
22:06:48preglowespecially in these days of dircache, another option that should default to on :>
22:06:54amiconnurgh
22:07:04tucozi think so too
22:07:10amiconnIf it were robust, perhaps
22:07:14amiconnBut it isn't
22:07:36amiconnPut the hvsc on your player and enable dircache
22:07:51*n1s tried that :-(
22:07:55tucozah. right
22:08:05amiconnIt should either be able to cope with such an amount of files, or gracefully disable itself in such a case
22:08:34 Join kclaf [0] (i=kclaf@82.237.150.15)
22:08:34amiconnn1s: I didn't, but I know the reports...
22:08:43kclafhi
22:08:51Slasheriamiconn: it will gracefully disable itself
22:09:20n1sSlasheri: for me it would scan the disk for about 10 seconds on every boot
22:09:44Slasheriwell, it can't know how many files there are until the entire disk has been scanned..
22:10:06n1syes but it did it on _every_ boot
22:10:12Slasherihmm, true
22:10:30Slasheriit does that because it previously failed to determine the cache size
22:10:45Slasheriok, that can be fixed..
22:10:52Slasheriit could default to the max cache size in that case
22:11:05Slasheriit would still scan on every boot, but in background and silently fail
22:11:29amiconnDoes the dircache size decrease after the next boot if you remove files?
22:11:44Slasheriof course it does
22:11:55Slasheribut that takes two boots for it to decrease
22:12:23amiconnOh, so it doesn't track what's added / removed while running?
22:12:42Slasheriah, if you use rockbox usb mode, it does then
22:12:49Slasheriso one boot only
22:13:05amiconnI mean when deleting from within rockbox, mainly
22:13:15tucozyikes. laptop almost out of battery. bye bye
22:13:19 Part tucoz ("Leaving")
22:13:22Slasherideleting does not affect cache size until next reboot
22:13:42amiconnYes, but not two boots then?
22:14:22Slasherihmm.. it depends. If you delete live using rockbox ui, then it takes two boots
22:14:29Slasheriwith usb, one boot should be enough
22:14:51Slasheribut now sleeping ->
22:16:03n1sI just timed it, the "scanning disk" splash is displayed for 22 seconds on my h320 with approximately 35000 tracks including HVSC
22:16:41Atomicsusetdoes the latest release come with all available pluggins?
22:16:47n1syes
22:17:01*Atomicsuset nods
22:17:03Atomicsusetk
22:17:11PaulPositionAtomicsunset - anything in particular?
22:17:31Atomicsusetjust very excited to the whole new setup
22:17:48Atomicsusetjust wanting to make sure there isnt anything badass i havent checked into :P
22:18:10Atomicsuseti got that theme working paul! thanks again my ipod is f*cking sweet!
22:18:31Atomicsusetthe only draw back ive noticed is that it takes forever to transfer files now
22:18:33PaulPositionatomicsunset - That's cool then. :) What did it, a reset of the settings?
22:18:46Atomicsusetno, i didnt have the font installed
22:18:55PaulPositionatomicsunset - Oh, right. :p
22:18:57Atomicsusetfont made a big difference
22:19:10Atomicsusetbut with anapod i could transfer at 22mbs
22:19:17*n1s thinks of his patch rotting away in the tracker
22:19:17PaulPositionatomicsunst - that 'slow loading' file is weird..
22:19:22Atomicsuseti dunno what i transfer at now but its slooooow
22:19:56Atomicsusetbout 5 hours for 15gig of transfer
22:20:17Atomicsusetand my stoopid album art locks up the player :P
22:20:37amiconnNano?
22:20:46PaulPositionatomicsunset - hmm, I don't own a pod so can't say, but this slow seems very weird.
22:20:51Atomicsuseti just have rename the album to Albumname.bmp and place it in the folder of the album right?
22:20:59Atomicsusetamiconn - video
22:21:28PaulPositionatomicsunset - I usually go with 'cover.bmp' as it's the default name and it spares me of typo's when writing the file.
22:21:36Atomicsusetohhh
22:22:04PaulPositionatomicsunset - but albumname should do. Of course you need to feed it proper bitmaps, not renamed jpegs ;-)
22:22:06Atomicsusetso literally "cover.bmp" not like "division bells.bmp"
22:22:11Atomicsusetlol
22:22:23Atomicsuseti was trying renamed jpegs :P
22:22:45PaulPositionatomicsunset - yeah, I don't know how rockbox treats whitespace in titles/filenames so I rather go with the very generic 'cover.bmp'
22:22:47Atomicsusethow do i make a "proper" bitmap?
22:23:09PaulPositionatomicsunset - You did? Howww... You're under windoze?
22:23:24amiconnHmm, does anyone know whether the album art patch uses the core BMP loader?
22:23:27Atomicsusetso each album will have a bitmap named "cover.bmp"
22:23:34Atomicsusetlol rename
22:23:47*amiconn guesses it does
22:23:55Atomicsusetpaulposition - i just renamed the extension to .bmp
22:24:05PaulPositionatomicsunset - Yeah, works best of course if you have one folder per album ;)
22:24:10*amiconn thinks about adding some more safeguards against malformed BMPs
22:24:45PaulPositionatomicsunset - But opening the jpeg in any graphic editor (like Paint) and save-as..., choose bmp and you're done.
22:24:51Atomicsusetohhh
22:25:04Atomicsusetshould i resize it to 100x100 or does it matter?
22:25:15n1samiconn: last I heard the resize bmp patch that is required by the album art relies on the old bmp.c (before your overhaul)
22:25:16Atomicsusetwill it resize it inside the player
22:25:36PaulPositionatomicsunset - Well resizing in a windows/linux/mac application will give you a cleaner image than the cheap bmp_resize patch does.
22:25:49Atomicsusetk
22:25:54Atomicsusetgonna give this a whirl
22:26:02Atomicsuset100x100 for video ipod correct?
22:26:10 Part swimmer ("thx to push the button")
22:26:14PaulPositionamiconn - N1s is right on that.. Compiling my own build I need to use bmp.c ver. 1.35
22:26:18amiconnn1s: Oh, you mean that crappy cropping resizer? I remeber having had a quick glance on that one...
22:26:56amiconnPaulPosition: I'd rather ditch resizing and use the new bmp.c
22:27:59amiconnThe old bmp.c is even less forgiving to malformed BMPs than the new one (and it supports less pixel depths)
22:28:09PaulPositionamiconn - I sure could understand that. Since I don't need the resizing anyway unless I start switching WPS.
22:28:33 Quit mag ("thanx")
22:30:08Atomicsusetok well it didnt crash, but my album is showing up just black
22:30:10Atomicsusetno image
22:30:14Atomicsusetbut its a small step
22:31:33PaulPositionAtomicsunset - might be the wps is a bit old and has outdated code for showing the art.. dunno, you'll get more support and information on the page where you downloaded the wps (like expected size for art if the build doesn;t include resize-patch, etc..)

23:09:06PaulPositionAnyone would verify a bug with me? Trying to get 'Database' to initialize. Leave it on for a good 30 minutes. Shutdown takes a whopping 20 seconds or so. On reboot, no 'committing database' no nothing. Of course, trying to navigate using tags triggers 'database not ready' errors.
23:09:36PaulPositionI've only got about 4gb of mp3, id3v2 tagged music. Using cvs from around same hour, yesterday.
23:10:07markundoes building with logf save the logf messages to a file?
23:10:30PaulPositionmarkun - Good question, I never built 'devel'.. (that's whats needed right?)
23:10:46markunyes
23:10:59lowlightno, you need to debug>logfdump
23:11:33PaulPositionAhh. Okay. I'll have a look like right now.
23:11:52markunlowlight: rockbox is hanging on my gigabeat and I'm trying to find out where
23:12:02[Gino]Does anyone know if microphone/FM recording is available on the iAudio X5 w/ Rockbox?
23:12:45Bagder[Gino]: both afaik
23:13:18[Gino]Thanks! one more question, does the iAudio X5 w/ Rockbox work as a Portable Device with Media Monkey?
23:13:45lowlightmarkun: logf outputs to the remote screen in real time...amiconn suggested splitting the gigabeat's screen into two sections and using one as the "remote"
23:13:56PaulPositionlowlight - Ain't no filedump option in my debug menu. :p
23:14:09bluebrotherit is a UMS device, so if Media Monkey works with that (don't know it) there should be no problem
23:14:23lowlightPaulPosition: on a logf build?
23:14:34bluebrotherI suggest simply trying it out −− you can always switch back
23:14:42*Doomed loves mediamonkey
23:14:50PaulPositionlowlight - Ahh, sorry, didn't understand your assertion the first time around.
23:15:16*bluebrother prepares sleep mode
23:16:19*Bagder downloaded mv player now to check it out
23:16:31PaulPositionlowlight - I haven't got a remote though.. still (D)evel->(L)ogf ?
23:16:35Bagderthere's not even an attempt of dealing with compressed video
23:17:08amiconnmv player?
23:17:16Bagderamiconn: IPL's video player
23:17:33amiconnah ok, wouldn't know
23:17:40amiconnThis is #rockbox ;)
23:17:59Bagderinterleaves uncompresed video with uncompressed sound
23:18:04lowlightPaulPosition: you can still dump the log from the debug menu as long as you don't lockup the player
23:18:19*amiconn wonders why ipl doesn't use libmpeg2 like we do
23:18:29amiconnAfaik performance on ipod isn't too bad
23:18:32PaulPositionah okay thanks.
23:19:01amiconnColdfire is another story - I would still like to incorporate mirak's patch
23:19:23amiconnBut that one needs quite some cleanup...
23:19:40lowlightPaulPosition: it dumps the log to a text file in .rockbox
23:19:55PaulPositionLowlight - Okay, selecting <D>evel and then <L>ogf from the configure tools it's waiting for some input.. Do I just press enter so I can make or what?
