00:55:26 | corecode | hey yo |
00:55:50 | corecode | i'd like to know how the status of the archos gmini port is |
00:55:55 | JdGordon | dead |
00:55:55 | AidyMole | does rockbox build with gcc 4.1.1 yet? |
00:56:02 | corecode | seems it's dead since over a year |
00:56:16 | JdGordon | it was removd from cvs recently |
00:56:20 | corecode | uh |
00:56:21 | JdGordon | so its completly dead |
00:56:21 | corecode | :/ |
00:56:24 | corecode | sad |
00:56:39 | corecode | the xs202 is such a nice and cheap player |
00:57:27 | corecode | what was the holdup? |
00:57:37 | corecode | nobody working on it? |
00:57:43 | corecode | or, too complicated? |
00:58:01 | JdGordon | i think none of the current devs had the target |
00:58:09 | AidyMole | hey um I don't need g++ to compile rockbox right |
00:58:16 | n1s | gcc |
00:58:49 | | Quit courtc (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)) |
00:58:49 | corecode | so what's the advice which player to get? sadly barely any supports ogg |
00:59:03 | AidyMole | iaudio \o/ |
00:59:07 | JdGordon | the x5 is the current "best" iirc |
00:59:38 | n1s | AidyMole: look here for more info on setting up a build environment http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/DevelopmentGuide#Setup_Your_Environment |
00:59:51 | AidyMole | n1s: i'm on that |
01:00 |
01:00:09 | AidyMole | but gentoo has a cross compiling toolchain creation utility |
01:01:16 | corecode | but it seems that the "hard" part was already done |
01:01:36 | JdGordon | corecode: if noeone has one, no work can be done |
01:01:43 | corecode | yah |
01:01:46 | corecode | i'd get one |
01:01:54 | corecode | and i would see how i can tackle with it |
01:01:59 | JdGordon | the code was removed in a way it is relativly easy to put back in if the port got restatred |
01:02:09 | corecode | cvs rm i guess |

04:22:55 | SimonSelki | Aight, I still don't know why it didn't have tags |
04:23:14 | SimonSelki | what I just did was transfer all the id3v1.1 tags to id3v2 and it worked |
04:23:21 | SimonSelki | they are all showing up right |
04:23:29 | SimonSelki | but it was a peculiar situation |
04:23:38 | SimonSelki | I have it plugged in right now |
04:23:51 | Soap | doesn't sound like a Rockbox issue, though. |
04:23:58 | Soap | What tagger are you using? |
04:24:15 | SimonSelki | MP3 Tag Tools v1.2 |
04:24:26 | SimonSelki | It's a simple proggie that lets me mass tag |
04:24:37 | SimonSelki | er, how can I listen to my iPod while I have it plugged in? |
04:25:12 | Soap | A - you really really need to read, at least browse, the maual. |
04:25:23 | SimonSelki | I did, several times |
04:25:28 | Soap | B - eject, disconnect, an let the ipod reboot,. |
04:25:49 | Soap | C - once you are safely in Rockbox, press and hold the "menu" key while inserting the USB cable. |
04:26:08 | SimonSelki | I was flipping through just now, I know I saw the answer in the FAQ for sure |
04:26:33 | Soap | iPod Rockbox has no USB mode of its own, when it detects a USB connection it reboots into Apple's Disk Mode. |

04:30:10 | Soap | Then you didn't do everything perfectly. |
04:30:45 | Soap | do you still have your original, untouched bootloader.bin file? |
04:30:45 | haywire | is it necessary to use the cmd prompt to install rockbox |
04:30:50 | haywire | i deleted everything |
04:30:53 | haywire | im starting over |

04:31:18 | haywire | ive been reading u can do it without the cmd prompt |

04:31:33 | Soap | Elara: ask. |
04:31:41 | SimonSelki | I'll help if I can |
04:31:42 | haywire | i first let itunes wipe out my ipod. |
04:31:47 | haywire | and i deleted everything |

I get into where you can see/highlight the RGB settings, but it won't let me change them. |
04:34:18 | Soap | ahh, so you didn't manually replace the one file, you let itunes wipe and reinstall the hard way. |

I've selected talk .mp3 in the voice menu for both files and directories, but it still just reads folder numbers or spells, no matter how many reboots I do. I'm sure I screwed up somewhere. Does the Voicebox script not |
04:40:45 | haywire | ok it doesnt say anything after i type that |

04:41:07 | Soap | haywire: yes |
04:41:13 | Paul_the_Nerd | Elara: Your message got cut off after "Does the Voicebox script not" because it was too long. |
04:41:41 | haywire | okay |
04:41:45 | haywire | it says nothing after that also |
04:41:45 | haywire | and now |

04:41:48 | haywire | ? |
04:41:52 | Elara | I just asked, "Does the Voicebox script not work with the Ipod color/photo?" |
04:41:53 | Paul_the_Nerd | Elara: You should check the .talk files, and make sure they are not 0 in size. In fact, if you rename them to .mp3, you should be able to play them in a standard mp3 player to make sure the files themselves are valid. It's possible for the script to fail to create valid files, depending on your computer. |

04:43:07 | haywire | ? |
04:43:38 | Soap | might want to tell Paul_the_Nerd file sizes now, before you write back to the ipod. |
04:43:50 | haywire | the sizes of my files in rockbox |
04:44:03 | haywire | oh |
04:44:07 | haywire | appleosbin and droadcombin |
04:44:08 | Paul_the_Nerd | haywire: What size are the apple_os.bin and apple_sw_5g_rcsc.bin |
04:44:08 | Soap | apple_os.bin ? |
04:44:49 | haywire | apple_os(file size: 7,327) |
04:45:06 | haywire | apple_sw_5g_rcsc size: 4,229 |
04:45:12 | Elara | Thanks Paul_The_Nerd. I'll check them. Should I run the script on the root directory of my Ipod? That's what I did. Plus, my Rockbox DB was created from initializing the iTunes/Ipod DB of the music I'd put on the player with iTunes. Could that potentially cause a problem? |
04:45:32 | Soap | wow, quite different from mine (relatively) |
04:45:37 | haywire | -_−− |
04:45:38 | Paul_the_Nerd | Elara: Are you browsing in filetree mode, or database mode? Database mode doesn't use the talk files, I believe. |
04:45:40 | haywire | =( |
04:45:42 | Soap | must be the different version of Apple OS. |
04:45:50 | Paul_the_Nerd | Soap: Yeah, shouldn't they both be in the ~5mb to 5.5mb range? |
04:46:06 | Paul_the_Nerd | haywire: How old/new is your iPod, and what size disk is it? |
04:46:08 | Soap | I have 6.2 and 5 |

04:46:32 | Soap | doh, it is a 5.5 G |
04:46:38 | haywire | oh |
04:46:38 | haywire | no. |
04:46:40 | haywire | !! |
04:46:42 | haywire | aww |
04:46:47 | haywire | how can u tell |
04:46:50 | haywire | if its a 5.5 |
04:46:53 | Soap | age |
04:47:15 | Paul_the_Nerd | It's very very likely a 5.5G, and the firmware sizes plus the problems you're having suggest it is. |
04:47:21 | Elara | Paul_The_Nerd: I'm in Database Mode. The install said to change my setting to that after installation/initialization so that I could browse/search by Artist, genre, etc. |
04:47:25 | Soap | I'm sorry, I brainfarted, I thought you had a 60 gig video. |
04:47:32 | haywire | oic |
04:48:08 | Soap | Good news is that Rockbox is working on the 30GB 5.5gen models. |
04:48:13 | | Part yewei |
04:48:15 | haywire | aww yess |
04:48:15 | Paul_the_Nerd | Elara: Unfortunately, since the database mode isn't actually directly tied to the filetree, the .talk files aren't actually accessible to it, I believe. At least not at this time, it should be possible in the future. But as it is, if you used iTunes to copy the songs over, it renames the actual filenames anyway. |
04:48:20 | haywire | how |
04:48:21 | haywire | haha |
04:48:21 | Soap | there is a long and complicated forum thread on it in the new ports section. |
04:48:25 | Paul_the_Nerd | Elara: The .talk files will sound like gibberish even if they did work. |
04:48:36 | haywire | oh |
04:48:40 | Paul_the_Nerd | Soap: It's *mostly* working. It's still buggier than 5Gs. |
04:49:00 | Soap | Paul_the_Nerd: That was going to be the "bad news" |

04:50:08 | Soap | good news #2, haywire, is that you have proven yourself more albe to follow directions than some, and should have no problem reading the (boring) new ports thread on the 5.5G. |
04:50:24 | haywire | oh.. |
04:50:33 | haywire | thank you |

04:52:39 | Elara | Paul_The_Nerd: Is there anyway that I could remove all the songs that iTunes originally copied over to my iPod, and then re-transfer them without iTunes, so that they didn't get renamed? If I did, is it possible the talk .mp3 feature would work, or should I just leave it on Spell and brush up on my quick word deciphering skills?:-) |
04:52:42 | haywire | Thank you Soap and Paul_The_Nerd. Your help is greatly appreciated. |
04:52:50 | haywire | I will idle the channel if anything comes up. |
04:53:23 | Soap | Elara: that is /possible/ but difficult and limited. |
04:53:36 | Paul_the_Nerd | Elara: Well, the talk feature requires that you're not using the database mode. Which means you'll have to have the file organized on the disk how you want them, so you'd have to create Artist and Album folders (or have a program do so). |
04:54:14 | Paul_the_Nerd | Elara: Your best bet at this time is probably to stick with the spelling unless you're willing to spend some time making sure the files themselves are organized in an accessible manner. |
04:54:27 | SimonSelki | I just did that today, it was a hell of a mess |
04:54:37 | Soap | Elara: there is a program called "SharePod", which last time I ran it (about 6 months ago) worked perfectly. A little program which would copy all your music off you ipod, and save the songs in perfectly organized folders and track names based upon the tags. |
04:54:56 | | Join jhMikeS [0] (n=jethead7@rockbox/developer/jhMikeS) |
04:55:19 | Soap | Elara: you could use that program to transfer off the music, and create a good folder structure all in one step, then copy the music back over, and use file tree mode instead of database mode. |

04:58:46 | Elara | Well, iTunes has everything organized fairly well, and I'm not referring to inside iTunes. If I go into Windows Explorer, and look at the directory where iTunes, if I were to load it, would pull from, that directory in Windows Explorer is organized by artist, then by album, then by track. Could I just grab that organized directory, NOT using iTunes, and do it that way? |

05:14:06 | haywire | oh okay i fixed it |
05:14:08 | haywire | =) |
05:15:38 | SimonSelki | How are patches and plugins handled? |
05:16:18 | Paul_the_Nerd | SimonSelki: That's not a very specific question. |
05:16:23 | SimonSelki | I heard someone say I have to ReMerge the files with... |
05:16:24 | Paul_the_Nerd | Patches and plugins are two drastically different things. |
05:16:26 | SimonSelki | yeah... sorry |
05:16:32 | SimonSelki | are they? |
05:16:34 | SimonSelki | shoot |
05:16:41 | Paul_the_Nerd | Patches are text files containing changes to the source code. You apply a patch to the source code. |
05:16:51 | SimonSelki | Aha |
05:17:11 | Paul_the_Nerd | Plugins are compiled files that all share the same memory, only one is loaded at a time... some example plugins would be the text viewer, or doom. |
05:17:32 | SimonSelki | ah, ah, okay |
05:17:34 | SimonSelki | I see |
05:17:37 | SimonSelki | great |
05:17:58 | SimonSelki | can put a plugin in the plugins folder? |
05:18:03 | SimonSelki | no installing or anything? |
05:18:11 | SimonSelki | or do I have to initialize |
05:18:47 | haywire | THANK YOU GOD! I got rockbox working on my 5.5g. Now, to the skin. |
05:18:48 | Paul_the_Nerd | A plugin has to be compiled to the same version of Rockbox as you're currently running. |
05:19:25 | SimonSelki | ...com.... compiled? |
05:19:57 | SimonSelki | haywire: congrats man. It's a good feeling, I know it |
05:20:12 | Paul_the_Nerd | When you make the .rock file, it has to be made for a specific type of Rockbox (iPod 5G, H120, or whatnot) plus it has to be within a certain time period, or the plugin version will have changed and it won't work. |
05:21:41 | SimonSelki | That sounds pretty complicated.... I looked at the working with patches, and it wasn't to descript |
05:21:53 | SimonSelki | okay, I had a different situation when I installed rockbox |
05:21:58 | SimonSelki | like, a-typical |
05:22:06 | SimonSelki | I'm not running windows XP |
05:22:27 | SimonSelki | I had to do the first part... the MS-DOS part at a friends house |
05:22:36 | haywire | Paul_The_Nerd: Do i download themes to my rockbox and will it just upload it? |
05:22:42 | SimonSelki | no |
05:22:52 | Paul_the_Nerd | haywire: I suggest at this point reading the manual |
05:23:27 | SimonSelki | You have to extract the individual files to their respective parts in the .rockbox file |
05:23:41 | SimonSelki | Folder I mean, .rockbox folder |
05:24:18 | SimonSelki | okay, I had to do the MS-DOS part on a friends computer because ipodpatcher would not work on '98 |
05:24:54 | SimonSelki | will I still be able to patch, or am I going to need to use that friends computer everytime I want to update? |
05:25:35 | Paul_the_Nerd | To update you just extract the newest rockbox.zip and copy the contents over. |
05:25:42 | Paul_the_Nerd | No special programs/tools required |
05:25:47 | SimonSelki | nice |
05:26:08 | SimonSelki | and to add plugins and patches? |
05:26:11 | | Quit haywire () |

05:27:45 | SimonSelki | sure thing man |
05:27:48 | SimonSelki | I'm so eager to learn |
05:34:38 | SimonSelki | okay okay |

06:12:46 | Membrillo | ahhh thanks |
06:12:51 | SimonSelki | I read that CVS was lesser suggested |
06:12:56 | Membrillo | gotcha... so like the ipod UMS mode |
06:12:57 | SimonSelki | than the Daily Build |
06:13:17 | jhMikeS | JdGordon: I've had false alarms from naughty words being censored before |
06:13:20 | Membrillo | so the gigabeat build is being worked on? |
06:13:23 | JdGordon | SimonSelki: paul means if you update your source and compile it youself you wont have to reapply patches |
06:13:43 | JdGordon | but if there are conflicts then you will have _fun_ fixing them |
06:13:46 | Paul_the_Nerd | SimonSelki: Well, I'm referring to the tool CVS, not the "CVS builds", but I'm curious who told you CVS was lesser suggested. |
06:14:00 | markun | Membrillo: yes, all the time. But we work on a seperate tree which we will merge back soon. |
06:14:02 | SimonSelki | That's what I thought, I'm not all down with the lingo here |
06:14:07 | SimonSelki | I read it in a few places |
06:14:15 | Paul_the_Nerd | SimonSelki: We generally try to make sure people know that the Daily Build is just a CVS build from a certain time each day. They really simply exist as an archive. |
06:14:21 | SimonSelki | including the highly referred to manual |
06:14:26 | markun | Membrillo: visit #gigabeat some time for more info |
06:14:30 | SimonSelki | ah |
06:14:37 | Paul_the_Nerd | SimonSelki: Could you point out where in the manual it says you should use the Daily over the CVS? |
06:14:42 | Paul_the_Nerd | I'd be awful surprised if it says that |
06:14:50 | SimonSelki | Yeah |
06:14:55 | Membrillo | oh ok, will do... thanks |
06:15:14 | Membrillo | would you advise buying a gigabeat? good dap? |
06:15:23 | Membrillo | does it have line in recording? |
06:15:27 | markun | no |
06:15:31 | markun | and no radio |
06:15:53 | SimonSelki | one more question if that's alright |
06:16:07 | Membrillo | dang... thats a bit rough... not much has line in these days though i guess |
06:16:11 | | Quit jbuchanan09 (Remote closed the connection) |
06:16:13 | SimonSelki | I'm on the Patches page right now. Why are some showing as pink and others kinda beige? |
06:16:24 | markun | Membrillo: it doesn't record at all |
06:16:44 | Paul_the_Nerd | SimonSelki: That pretty much depends on what people have set the severity at. |
06:16:52 | Membrillo | yeah fair enough... so what does it have on its positive side? |
06:17:22 | jhMikeS | looks like a bad edit on the stations part :\ |
06:17:35 | markun | very nice 320x240 color screen + 300MHz ARM9 |
06:18:27 | SimonSelki | Ah, I see |
06:18:48 | SimonSelki | I was hoping it had to do with whether or not the patches could still be used or not |
06:19:21 | SimonSelki | since the files that the patches modify get updated, they do stop working after some time, right? |
06:19:41 | Paul_the_Nerd | Yup |
06:19:54 | Paul_the_Nerd | In fact, I'd say the vast majority of patches on there will require at least some tinkering to get them working |

06:21:56 | SimonSelki | The last few lines mean not me |
06:22:05 | Paul_the_Nerd | Is there some reason you pasted it several times? |
06:22:25 | Paul_the_Nerd | And none of that says anything about the daily builds being better |
06:22:50 | SimonSelki | did I? |
06:22:53 | SimonSelki | If you are new to Rockbox I would recommend downloading the Daily Build, because the Bleeding Edge build could contain bugs that the Developers are not aware of yet. |
06:23:04 | Paul_the_Nerd | That's not from the manual. |
06:23:11 | SimonSelki | right |
06:23:15 | SimonSelki | you were right |
06:23:17 | Paul_the_Nerd | As well, whoever said that doesn't know what they're talking about. |
06:23:30 | Paul_the_Nerd | The daily build is *exactly* the same as the last CVS build before a certain time. |
06:23:32 | SimonSelki | I read those two things and I guess summerized em both |
06:23:45 | Paul_the_Nerd | The daily build is a CVS build that is made once a day, as opposed to every update. |
06:24:02 | SimonSelki | Hmm |
06:24:04 | Paul_the_Nerd | Which means that the bugs in the daily build are there for 24 hours, whereas major bugs that make it into CVS builds are usually gone by the next one. |
06:24:14 | SimonSelki | huh |
06:24:19 | Paul_the_Nerd | Which, if the bug was triggered by a typo, can be less than 10 minutes |
06:24:19 | SimonSelki | Man |
06:24:20 | SimonSelki | Cool |
06:24:35 | SimonSelki | Thanks for clearing that up for me |
06:25:05 | Paul_the_Nerd | The only reason not to use a CVS build is if there's a specific bug in the current one, and you want to use a daily build from before that bug was introduced, really. |
06:26:10 | SimonSelki | I see |
06:26:30 | SimonSelki | Okay, I'm going to try to install Cygwin |
06:26:45 | SimonSelki | but before I do,... |
06:27:14 | SimonSelki | Is it even going to be worth it if I can't use the patch? |
06:27:44 | SimonSelki | I mean, if the patch doesn't work anymore |
06:28:04 | SimonSelki | the particular patch I was looking at has like 7 files up to download, I have no idea where to start |
06:28:19 | JdGordon | what patch? |
06:29:37 | SimonSelki | It's the one that allows you to edit tags |

07:47:51 | retry | let's assume the errors are the same with the ipod not attached |
07:47:55 | retry | what would this imply? |
07:48:03 | retry | that ipodcatcher can't find the player connected? |

09:07:36 | daky | good morning :D |
09:08:35 | Phoenix7477 | i can give it a shot, i have a 1st gen nano myself |
09:11:11 | monk | excellent, thanks. |
09:11:48 | monk | i downloaded the faq, which directed me to the required downloads, got those. |
09:12:17 | monk | hooked up my nano, tried to run ipodpatcher and got a series of errors. |
09:12:52 | Phoenix7477 | your running windows? and which errors in perticular? |
09:12:54 | monk | Error reading disk geometry: Incorrect function. |
09:12:58 | monk | yea, 2k. |
09:12:59 | Phoenix7477 | hmm |
09:13:14 | monk | i followed the directions to put the ipod into drive mode |
09:13:22 | monk | and now it's completely responsive |
09:13:28 | monk | the apple logo slowly blinks |
09:13:38 | monk | i've tried resetting |
09:13:49 | monk | it doesn't register as a drive |
09:13:52 | Phoenix7477 | hmm |
09:13:57 | monk | i.e., i can't access it |
09:14:05 | Phoenix7477 | sounds like the partition got clobbered somehow |
09:14:32 | Phoenix7477 | have you tried restoring the ipod with itunes or the equivilant apple updater? |
09:15:26 | Phoenix7477 | also, what exactly did you do when trying to install rockbox? |
09:15:30 | monk | well, that's my next question. is it possible to restore it without itunes. i, er, prematurely uninstalled it. i was optimistic about rockbox. :/ |
09:15:49 | monk | i unpacked the zip file on my C: drive |
09:16:06 | monk | i then downloaded the files mentioned in the manual |
09:16:09 | Phoenix7477 | should be able to restore it if you followed the right commands |
09:16:17 | monk | and tried to run ipodpatcher |
09:16:20 | Phoenix7477 | you have bootpartition.bin? |
09:16:51 | monk | no.. i have a bootloader-nano.bin |
09:18:32 | Phoenix7477 | hmm |
09:19:06 | Phoenix7477 | which manual were you looking at? mine says you need to extract bootpartition.bin to get working firmware |
09:19:09 | monk | i'm basically following the manueal directions beginning with installing the bootloader |
09:19:23 | monk | i've tried all of those steps up to running ipodpatcher |
09:20:00 | monk | rockbox-ipodnano-20061210.pdf |
09:20:54 | Phoenix7477 | ok |
09:21:06 | Phoenix7477 | so you ran ipotpatcher and found the correct number to access the ipod |
09:21:21 | Ctcp | Ignored 1 channel CTCP requests in 0 seconds at the last flood |
09:21:21 | * | Phoenix7477 is just going to step through them with you to find out where it failed |
09:21:24 | monk | no.. i ran ipodpatcher and i got the error i pasted earlier. |
09:21:53 | Phoenix7477 | ipodpatcher 0? |
09:22:07 | monk | i tried ipodpatcher 0-5 |
09:22:18 | monk | i received a total of 3 errors |
09:22:27 | monk | sec, i'll paste the other two. |
09:22:32 | Phoenix7477 | k |
09:23:37 | monk | Error opening disk: The system cannot find the file specified. |
09:23:43 | monk | i'm sorry, there were only two errors. |
09:23:49 | Phoenix7477 | ok |
09:23:52 | monk | the first one i posted and that one. |
09:23:58 | monk | in that order, beginning with 0 |
09:23:59 | Phoenix7477 | makes sense |
09:24:20 | Phoenix7477 | and one of them ended up giving you partition table information, like in the manual? |
09:24:36 | | Quit daurn (Client Quit) |
09:25:02 | monk | no, 0 gives me the first error and all subsequent numbers give me the latter message. |
09:25:11 | monk | and none of them seem to work |
09:25:18 | monk | i don't get anything that looks like the manual |
09:25:47 | Phoenix7477 | when you unplug your ipod, it still works? |
09:26:23 | monk | it's unresponsive at the moment. the apple logo slowly blinks. |
09:26:23 | | Quit spiorf (Remote closed the connection) |
09:26:28 | monk | it does this whether i have it connected or not |
09:26:44 | monk | it didn't do this until i followed the directions for putting it into drive mode |
09:26:49 | Phoenix7477 | hmm |
09:27:00 | monk | i'm not certain how i borked it |
09:28:10 | Phoenix7477 | what exactly is drive mode? im not seeing it in the manual |
09:28:23 | monk | let me check, maybe i misspeak. |
09:29:56 | monk | ok, beginning of section 2: installation |
09:30:06 | monk | the entry for usb connection |
09:30:36 | Phoenix7477 | oh, ok |
09:30:41 | Phoenix7477 | i see what you mean |
09:31:06 | Phoenix7477 | try disconnecting it, and doing a reset. menu-select and see if it will boot up |
09:31:36 | monk | i've tried serveral resets |
09:31:54 | monk | either i'm making a dumb mistake or it's borked |
09:31:57 | Phoenix7477 | the apple logo just keeps blinking? |
09:32:01 | monk | yea |
09:32:05 | monk | i can make it turn off for a few seconds |
09:32:09 | monk | then it starts blinking again |
09:32:10 | Phoenix7477 | (sorry for all the questions, just trying to get a good idea of whats going on in my head) |
09:32:21 | monk | no, thanks for helping |
09:32:30 | monk | ask as many questions as is necessary |
09:32:33 | Phoenix7477 | cool |
09:32:53 | monk | let me try another reset. one moment. |
09:32:56 | Phoenix7477 | ok, so it was working, then you did ipodpatcher 0 through 5, and it started doing that? |
09:33:17 | monk | no, it started doing that when i tried to put it into drive mode. |
09:33:26 | monk | er |
09:33:27 | monk | yea |
09:33:40 | monk | i don't think the ipodcatcher did anything |
09:33:47 | monk | i just got failure and errors |
09:33:53 | monk | er |
09:33:57 | monk | ipodpatcher* :) |
09:34:03 | Phoenix7477 | yeah, it doesn't sound like ipodcatcher wrote anything, but its not working so umm lol |
09:34:06 | amiconn | jhMikeS: around? |
09:36:11 | Phoenix7477 | ok, try power it down and powering it back on. press and hold play for about 5 seconds or so and it should power itself down |
09:36:18 | Phoenix7477 | then press select and it should boot back up again |
09:36:43 | monk | it refuses to power down |
09:37:05 | monk | it looks as if it's continuously resetting |
09:37:26 | Phoenix7477 | yeah, thats what im thinking |
09:37:45 | Phoenix7477 | it sounds like a bug in the apple firmware, but im not sure (don't work for apple) |
09:38:02 | Phoenix7477 | if nothing was written to it, then theres no reason why it should be doing that |
09:38:11 | Phoenix7477 | the buttons aren't stuck right? lol |

11:12:33 | * | linuxstb hopes monk returns... |
11:12:35 | Bertrix | sorry for the nooby question, ogg playback crashes on an iPod nano v1, what could cause this? |
11:12:51 | n1s | very old ogs |
11:12:55 | n1s | oggs |
11:12:57 | Bertrix | old? |
11:13:02 | Bertrix | just made them with oggenc? |
11:13:12 | linuxstb | Does _every_ ogg file crash? |
11:13:18 | Bertrix | yes, every file |
11:13:28 | linuxstb | With what error? |
11:13:30 | Bertrix | but i just made them in a batch process, so they are pretty much te same |
11:13:33 | Bertrix | hard crash |
11:13:40 | Bertrix | nu ero, backlight styays on and reboot needed |
11:14:14 | linuxstb | Do other types of music play OK? |

11:18:05 | Genre9mp3 | Isn't id3 supposed to be capable of tagging everything? |
11:18:09 | linuxstb | Bertrix: Two things to try first are: 1) Reset the settings in Rockbox (turn the hold switch on as Rockbox is booting); and 2) Delete the .rockbox folder and rockbox.ipod file and unzip rockbox.zip again. |
11:18:11 | Genre9mp3 | id3v2 that is |
11:18:19 | Bertrix | i have already done that |
11:18:36 | Bertrix | even created a new filesystem on my nano, just to be sure everything was wiped |
11:19:32 | n1s | Bertrix: Try a newre version of oggenc from here http://www.rarewares.org/ogg.html |
11:20:02 | Bertrix | when i select the file, the playing screen comes up, all timers saying 0:00, headphones click, crashed |
11:20:08 | Bertrix | thanks nls, will take look |
11:20:26 | linuxstb | Bertrix: Is there anything unusual about the input files? (samplerate, mono, etc)? |
11:21:03 | Bertrix | first it were mp3's which lame recoded to wav, and then oggenc made to ogg, different sample rates, stereo/mono(most stereo, but mono crashes as well) |
11:21:08 | Bertrix | they all crash |
11:21:51 | linuxstb | You could also try an older version of Rockbox. Versions from the last 30 days are here: http://www.rockbox.org/dl.cgi?bin=ipodnano It would be useful to know which version broke it (assuming Rockbox could ever play your files). |
11:21:55 | linuxstb | So they're not 44.1KHz? |
11:22:42 | Bertrix | i'll try one which is |
11:23:22 | Bertrix | strange! |
11:23:27 | Bertrix | the 44.1 would play |
11:23:31 | Bertrix | and now they ALL play |

12:43:41 | jba_ | Membrillo, not necessarily no |
12:43:45 | jba_ | manily scalable fonts |
12:44:26 | Genre9mp3 | Isn't anti-aliased used for proper scaling? |
12:44:42 | Membrillo | ahhh i understand... does rockbox support anti-aliasing of fonts yet? on any platforms? |
12:44:43 | jba_ | the battery indicator and volume metre appear too small also |
12:44:56 | Genre9mp3 | Membrillo: no |
12:45:10 | Membrillo | or is it still 2 tone grayscale |
12:45:18 | jba_ | Genre9mp3, anit-aliasing is the process of shading in the areas between pixels with blended colors to make them appear more rounded, i.e. less aliased (roughly speaking) |
12:45:19 | Membrillo | monotone* is the appropriate term sorry |
12:45:22 | Membrillo | ahhh ok |
12:45:23 | linuxstb | jba_: Yes, that's a problem on all the larger LCDs - the same icons are used on every bitmapped LCD Rockbox supports. |
12:46:06 | Genre9mp3 | jba_: I know, but scaling fonts with no anti-aliasing is not a good idea... that was my original point actually |
12:46:22 | jba_ | if they are just rasterised icons it should be simple to scale them (volume and battery metre) |
12:46:35 | Membrillo | Genre9mp3: is that because it will look all 'blocky'? |
12:46:38 | Membrillo | and pixelated? |
12:46:57 | Genre9mp3 | yes... mostly on small sizes |
12:47:00 | jba_ | Genre9mp3, the whole point of tte is that the vector of the glyph is used and so scaling isn't a problem |

12:49:59 | linuxstb | Genre9mp3: You mean large fonts are ugly? Whether they are generated on the fly from .ttf files, or pre-generated (as they are now), makes no difference. |
12:50:01 | | Quit jba (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)) |
12:50:03 | jba_ | yeah i see his points |
12:50:49 | Genre9mp3 | linuxstb: I'm not quite sure what are you trying to say there |
12:51:07 | linuxstb | Genre9mp3: I'm not sure what you're saying... |
12:51:07 | jba_ | Genre9mp3, i think you are confused about ttf |
12:51:19 | Genre9mp3 | jba_: perhaps |
12:51:41 | jba_ | linuxstb, anyhow i guess what I was tending towards was perhaps more larger generated fonts of the nicer ones, like helv 20 or something |
12:52:13 | bluebrother | how about creating a second fonts package with large fonts? |
12:52:18 | linuxstb | Fonts aren't "scaled" as such. They are rendered as bitmaps based on the vectors in the .ttf file. Currently Rockbox does this in advance at a fixed size. Adding .ttf support to Rockbox would mean that Rockbox would render them on-target at varying sizes. |
12:52:54 | Genre9mp3 | linuxstb: I understand you now... thanks for clarifying that |
12:53:13 | jba_ | linuxstb, exactly, but as n1s pointed out it wouldn't be good for battery life |
12:53:35 | linuxstb | jba_: Yes, I'm not suggesting we add it. |
12:54:14 | jba_ | anyhow, yeah it would be nive to have some more prettier fonts pre-generated in larger size |
12:54:28 | jba_ | linuxstb, any reason why we don't use bitstream vera sans? i quite like it |

12:59:21 | Membrillo | could each character be pre-rendered and stored as a bitmap or jpeg and ran from cache memory or something? then anti-aliasing wouldnt be a problem |
12:59:52 | linuxstb | Anti-aliasing requires alpha-blending with the current background. |

14:49:02 | Galois | in a pinch, cp or copy.exe will do |
14:49:32 | DivinuZ | I don't beleve rsync exists for windows? |
14:49:34 | Gnelik41 | DivinuZ: Windows Explorer |
14:49:44 | Galois | I've used rsync on windows before |
14:49:47 | Gnelik41 | DivinuZ:Why not? |
14:49:57 | Galois | really sophisticated users might consider using unison (http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~bcpierce/unison/) |
14:50:30 | DivinuZ | well, because I am uninformed :P |
14:52:02 | Kitt0s | if i restore ipod to factory settings, will it delete all the content i have (not the songs on the itunes, the regular files or music i have on it) |
14:52:11 | DivinuZ | so you guys just copy and paste your music? It doesn't matter where on the ipod I put it? |
14:52:35 | linuxstb | Kitt0s: Yes, that's the definition of "restore to factory settings"... |
14:52:55 | linuxstb | DivinuZ: Exactly. |
14:53:18 | Galois | you can't put the music in any of the ipod special folders like iPod_control |

15:18:45 | linuxstb | dan_a: No, I haven't touched my Elio since my initial attempts. |

15:59:00 | barrywardell | linuxstb: does the ipod bootloader not run from the start of RAM? i wonder if that's the reason the modified crt0-pp.S isn't working on ipods? |
16:00 |
16:00:37 | linuxstb | barrywardell: It's loaded (and run from) the end of the apple firmware, so about 5MB from the start of RAM. |
16:01:08 | barrywardell | ah, ok. that's quite likely to be the problem (I think) |
16:01:12 | linuxstb | It does a little initialisation in-place, then relocates itself to IRAM. |
16:02:31 | n1s | barrywardell: does "disk poweroff" work reliably on h10 |

16:04:30 | linuxstb | barrywardell: Yes (IIRC). |
16:04:53 | linuxstb | Slasheri: Yes, the problem does seem to be the rsrc image being created incorrectly. I'm investigating now. |
16:05:27 | barrywardell | linuxstb: apparently that part is very multiprocessor unsafe, which is why dan_a had to rewrite it to get it to work on the sansa |
16:07:33 | linuxstb | barrywardell: That doesn't surprise me - there's definitely something bad happening with the cop on the ipods. |
16:07:34 | n1s | barrywardell: hmm, that is a problem if my patch in the tracker gets committed because it turns it on and removes the option, so would you want it to be always on or always off or do you think the patch should wait untill it works reliably on the h10? |
16:08:21 | dan_a | I think the iPod comes out of the bootloader with the cache disabled, which means that the Rockbox bootloader doesn't have to worry about concurrency. The Sansa seems to have cache enabled by its bootloader, which caused problems. |
16:08:52 | linuxstb | Yes, I'm pretty sure the cache is never enabled in the ipod bootloader. |
16:08:54 | dan_a | The updated crt0 flushes and invalidates cache at appropriate times. |
16:10:01 | barrywardell | n1s: which patch? |
16:10:09 | linuxstb | dan_a: Is the Sansa port developed enough to test Rolo? The rolo code for the ipod in CVS was my badly-informed attempt, and doesn't work... |
16:10:28 | linuxstb | (I'm sure it's cache-related) |
16:10:46 | n1s | barrywardell: http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/6421 |
16:11:06 | barrywardell | linuxstb: Rolo works on my h10 if I use my updated crt0-pp.S |
16:11:12 | dan_a | linuxstb: Rolo works fine on the Sansa (I can't remember if I had to make one or two local changes) - but the OF doesn't boot properly with it |
16:12:05 | linuxstb | Have you both tried different rockbox versions to the currently running one? |
16:12:14 | linuxstb | (that's where the ipod rolo falls over) |
16:12:27 | barrywardell | no, just the one that's already running |
16:14:11 | dan_a | linuxstb: I've tried a different version, with no problems. The change I made was to use the proper cache flushing code instead of reading 8kB memory. |
16:15:01 | linuxstb | dan_a: That's good news. Can you commit it? (it can't be any worse than the existing ipod rolo code). |

16:50:32 | Kitt0s | how do i restore bootpartition.bin |
16:50:32 | Kitt0s | ? |
16:50:54 | Soap | Kitt0s: the issue as I see it is that iTunes /should/ recognize it in its current state. iTunes worked fine on my iPod when I had the IPL bootloader installed. While that might be the problem, and rewriting your bootloader.bin file will remove the IPL bootloader... |
16:51:02 | linuxstb | Kitt0s: So you originally had the Rockbox bootloader installed, and then you installed IPL's loader2? |

17:20:07 | dan_a | It would be good if we could get to the bottom of this (and the crossfeed problem on the H10) so we can get the updated crt0 in, which is what is holding up dual boot for Sansa. |
17:20:08 | barrywardell | i see the problem |
17:20:20 | barrywardell | 0xfffffe00 works |
17:20:50 | barrywardell | the updated crt0 has the space at the start to avoid 0xe0-0xef |
17:21:01 | dan_a | Ah. |
17:21:17 | barrywardell | that pushes line 66 to 0xfc |
17:21:37 | | Join My_Sic [0] (n=MySic@m64.net81-67-5.noos.fr) |
17:22:38 | barrywardell | and I think the pc is probably some where past that at 0x1** |
17:23:34 | linuxstb | Also, on the ipods, the code before boot_table: must be less than 0x100 bytes... |
17:23:52 | linuxstb | Otherwise ipod_fw.c will trash it. |
17:24:27 | barrywardell | sounds like that could well be the problem with the ipods then |
17:25:51 | dan_a | Yes - my solution would be to #ifdef out the padding at the start for iPod bootloaders |
17:27:38 | linuxstb | Or I could remove that feature from ipod_fw.c - we don't actually need it... |
17:27:42 | barrywardell | yup, that works |
17:27:57 | barrywardell | removing the space at the start lets the bootloader work on iPod |
17:28:58 | barrywardell | and it loads Rockbox fine too:) |
17:30:25 | linuxstb | Should that new crt0-pp.S help with the COP as well? |
17:31:00 | barrywardell | there's a chance it will |
17:31:12 | dan_a | Not on iPods, I don't think, but maybe on H10s |
17:32:09 | dan_a | I'll just check that the cop is still branching to the correct place |
17:33:35 | barrywardell | the updated bl boots the ipod OF too |

17:35:32 | barrywardell | i've never tried installing IPL |
17:36:59 | muesli__ | btw does audible seeking in mp3s work? |
17:37:01 | barrywardell | what about splitting crt0 into BL and non-BL files? i think people were in favor of that before. |

17:39:19 | Genre9mp3 | would this require exactly the same technique used in bmp progress bar? >> http://www.misticriver.net/showpost.php?p=523669&postcount=1 |
17:40:14 | barrywardell | linuxstb: the only problem i came across in trying to do so before was that boot.lds doesn't recognise BOOTLOADER as being defined |
17:41:24 | dan_a | barrywardell: That shouldn't matter, should it? boot.lds won't be used if BOOTLOADER isn't defined |
17:42:14 | barrywardell | ah, yes. silly me! |
17:43:26 | dan_a | Ah, the other question I have - I don't see why it should have, but has fixing the bootloader sorted out the crossfeed problem on h10? If not, is the problem there on the iPod too? |
17:45:44 | barrywardell | i haven't tested yet. the crossfeed problem doesn't exist on an ipod using a normal build with an old crt0 |
17:45:55 | barrywardell | and with the new bl of course |
17:46:22 | dan_a | That's good, at least. |
17:46:32 | barrywardell | so it's probably a mistake by me in making a new crt0 for non-bootloader builds |
17:46:53 | barrywardell | linuxstb: boot_table is only used on ipod's? |

17:48:00 | linuxstb | barrywardell: Yes. It's not even used in Rockbox though - it's something leftover from the old ipod loader. ipod_fw.c writes some information there. |
17:48:14 | linuxstb | ^old ipodlinux loader |
17:49:22 | barrywardell | so maybe that should just be removed too? |
17:49:54 | linuxstb | Yes, but it would mean changing ipod_fw.c. We would also lose some compatibility with IPL. |
17:50:25 | barrywardell | ah, ok. maybe easier to just leave it in for ipods then |

18:06:41 | barrywardell | although i think that can be changed back to 0xffffff00 now. |
18:06:56 | barrywardell | actually, maybe not |

18:11:52 | Arathis | but I get an error cause it can't find libiconv.so.2 |
18:12:53 | barrywardell | have you got iconv installed? |
18:13:04 | Arathis | yes |
18:13:12 | Arathis | I can find it on my machine too |
18:13:18 | markun | do you need iconv to compile gcc? |

18:14:01 | barrywardell | what's the exact error message? |
18:14:29 | Arathis | can't remember. I closed the window .... running it again right now |
18:15:38 | barrywardell | dan_a: i think the sansa bl should look in /System for the OF. that way it wouldn't get deleted when updating rockbox and deleting .rockbox |
18:16:48 | barrywardell | dan_a: and is there really a need for separate h10.c and e200.c? |
18:16:53 | dan_a | barrywardell: Given that I'm going to have to flash the OF on in order to put Rockbox on *because* I'd deleted .rockbox... I can't argue at all! |
18:16:57 | amiconn | You shouldn't delete .rockbox when updating |
18:17:30 | amiconn | That way you lose all settings saved from plugins (and soon main settings as well), and database files etc etc |
18:17:50 | barrywardell | dan_a: it has happened to me too, several times. that's why i mentioned it |
18:18:05 | barrywardell | amiconn: but sometimes deleting .rockbox fixes weird problems |
18:18:32 | amiconn | huh? |
18:18:32 | dan_a | And as long as the code it h10.c and e200.c can be cleanly combined, then they should be one file. |

18:20:18 | Arathis | *fixed |
18:20:33 | barrywardell | dan_a: as far as i can tell they're almost the exact same, apart from a couple of strings |
18:21:31 | dan_a | They shouldn't be too different - the first version of e200.c was an exact copy of h10.c |
18:22:56 | amiconn | barrywardell: Then they use a strange unzipper which doesn't overwrite old files |
18:23:35 | dan_a | barrywardell: I've found the rules for what makes a valid constant in ARM - http://www.zap.org.au/elec2041-cdrom/examples/intro/values.s from stg3 |
18:23:43 | amiconn | Extracting a new build over an existing one never causes problems by itself if all extracted files replace the existing ones with the same name |
18:23:52 | linuxstb | Or they don't cleanly unmount/eject, leaving some corrupted files behind, and the next time it works... |
18:24:17 | amiconn | I always just pull the cable... on windows, with write caching disabled |
18:24:41 | barrywardell | dan_a: a diff between the two shows the only real difference is in the text strings, calling things iriver/Sansa |
18:25:12 | barrywardell | amiconn, linuxstb: either way, getting them to delete .rockbox and reextract frequently works |

20:32:53 | * | Bger just spotted that disktidy can't enter more then 7 (or 8) levels in the dir tree |
20:33:39 | Bger | (because it doesn't close the dir handle and #define MAX_OPEN_DIRS 8 ) |
20:33:57 | Bger | s/then/than |
20:34:50 | petur | hmmmm.. then my properties plugin should have the same issue, as will the recursive dir delete... |
20:35:07 | * | petur tries |
20:38:00 | petur | strange, seems to work |
20:39:15 | petur | ah no, it silently fails to detect anything lower |
20:39:25 | Bger | ah, okay |
20:39:26 | Bger | :) |
20:39:56 | amiconn | But you cannot close the parent handles, otherwise recursion won't work |
20:40:07 | petur | same for delete dir: fails silently |
20:41:12 | petur | amiconn: indeed, unless you keep a counter and assume the order and count stay the same |
20:41:58 | petur | which, unless somebody added a random generator to the dir enumeration, should work |
20:42:37 | Bger | yep |
20:43:52 | amiconn | It will get a lot slower though |
20:44:21 | petur | in the case of dir delete: even more... |
20:44:39 | amiconn | ...because then you always need to reopen the dir and advance to the last position |
20:44:47 | petur | indeed |
20:44:51 | Bger | (especially if dircache is turned off) |
20:44:56 | amiconn | Not in case of recursive delete though |

20:45:24 | amiconn | In this case, the next entry is always the first one |
20:47:45 | amiconn | Of course the closing of open parent handles could be made dynamic |
20:48:06 | amiconn | Adds quite some complexity though |
20:49:00 | * | amiconn thinks that having 8 dirlevels is somewhat insane though |
20:49:22 | Bger | here is an example /D/iriver/h300/Docs/usb/DevClass/ms/Protocols |
20:49:59 | petur | on pc, I have too but not on a DAP |
20:50:04 | Bger | and i don't think it's insane.. |
20:51:39 | Bger | not if you use your DAP as a removable HDD too |

20:59:05 | n1s | thanks |
21:00 |
21:00:00 | n1s | amiconn: I was testing your suggestion to make private functions static and I have managed to save about 150b on recorder builds :-) |
21:00:29 | amiconn | Nice :) |
21:00:57 | * | petur notes that recording is still borked on his h340 :( |
21:01:24 | amiconn | Yes, very |
21:01:34 | Plouj | what's broken on h320? |
21:01:35 | Slasheri | eh, database.c? |
21:01:54 | amiconn | Recording stops to advance here after seconds to minutes |
21:01:59 | Slasheri | database.* is the burried tagdb |
21:02:12 | Plouj | someone suggested to me that iriver 320 works with rock box just as well as an ipod nano ... |
21:02:14 | petur | oh sorry, didn't see you asked for the .c/.h files |
21:02:24 | amiconn | Interestingly, I only observe this behaviour on X5 and H300 only |
21:02:40 | amiconn | On H1x0 recording works like a charm |

21:03:16 | Bger | amiconn, petur: which builds do this stopping ? |
21:03:24 | petur | Plouj: I think RockBox works better on iriver than on ipod |
21:03:29 | n1s | Slasheri: they are still built... |
21:03:39 | amiconn | Either it's a timing problem caused by the colour lcds, or it depends on the absence of s/pdif in |
21:03:41 | petur | Bger: latest cvs? |
21:04:00 | petur | it must be a timing issue as a logf build seems to work better |
21:04:12 | Slasheri | n1s: no, they shouldn't be.. |
21:04:13 | Plouj | petur: but there are these bugs mentioned: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IriverStatus - although I'm not sure which model of the device they apply to |
21:04:24 | Bger | does the build from friday morning (08.12) do it ? |
21:04:46 | Slasheri | n1s: database.c isn't defined anywhere in apps/SOURCES |
21:05:23 | petur | Plouj: last updated 6 months ago ;) |
21:05:29 | n1s | Slasheri: I know but if I rename it, it won't build |
21:06:09 | | Nick myzar|away is now known as myzar (n=myzar@66.199.227.210) |
21:06:10 | Plouj | well, someone should update that wiki then |
21:06:21 | petur | Plouj: and those issues are all for swcodec devices, which the ipod is too |
21:06:58 | Bger | petur ? |
21:07:03 | n1s | aha! database.h is included in main.c |
21:07:16 | petur | Bger? |
21:07:44 | Bger | do you know whether a build from friday morning will have the "stopping" issue too ? |
21:07:53 | petur | probably |
21:07:59 | | Quit [sellout] (Remote closed the connection) |
21:08:10 | petur | last known stable recording was mid-august |
21:08:17 | Bger | hm |
21:08:18 | petur | :( |
21:08:49 | Bger | but i'm using it very often for voice recording and i don't mind the problems that u can't stand... |
21:09:00 | Bger | but if the recording process stops ... |
21:10:14 | amiconn | I'm pretty sure this stopping issue is pretty new, added somewhere between 01 Dec and 08 Dec |
21:10:35 | Bger | amiconn: what are the symptoms ? |
21:10:58 | | Join [sellout] [0] (n=sellout@c-69-241-206-137.hsd1.fl.comcast.net) |
21:11:01 | amiconn | Recording stops after some time (ranging from seconds to minutes) |
21:11:03 | Bger | because i've made 2-3 recordings (each at least 2h30m long) since then |
21:11:18 | Bger | (mp3, mono, 64kbps) |
21:11:24 | amiconn | If recording is in standby when it happens, you can start recording, but then it just pretends to record |
21:11:53 | amiconn | ..i.e. file size doesn't increase, and peakmeter is empty |
21:12:16 | amiconn | This is pure wav recording. |
21:12:27 | amiconn | Tried mic/line in as well as mono/stereo |
21:13:39 | Bger | okay, recording with these params (mp3 etc) dated 06.12 haven't stopped |
21:14:22 | amiconn | I get this behaviour both on H340 and on X5 |
21:14:36 | Bger | since when ? |
21:14:50 | amiconn | Tried yesterday and today |
21:15:02 | amiconn | A build from 1 Dec works on X5 |
21:15:25 | Bger | btw, what do you think of some kind of "root rockbox dir" parameter passing (through ROLO) ? |
21:15:36 | amiconn | ?? |
21:15:41 | Bger | haha |
21:16:06 | Bger | ok, i'll try to explain |
21:16:56 | Bger | i mean some kind of mechanism, allowing to have more than one full rockbox copy (plugins, codecs, etc) |
21:17:00 | Bger | at the same time |
21:17:12 | amiconn | Why would you want that? |
21:17:48 | Bger | recording issue for example... |
21:17:55 | Lear | To switch between different versions? |
21:17:58 | Bger | yep |
21:18:15 | amiconn | To lessen the pressure to fix issues? |
21:18:23 | Bger | haha |
21:18:26 | amiconn | I'd say that's the wrong way... |
21:18:28 | Bger | i expected this :) |
21:19:20 | amiconn | I didn't see the need to run completely separate builds a single time on any of my targets for the whole time I'm involved in rockbox |
21:20:00 | amiconn | I do sometimes use rolo for test builds, and to show the ugliness of retailos on archos |

21:20:20 | | Join MarcoPolo [0] (n=MarcoPol@160.228.157.232) |
21:20:28 | amiconn | These test builds can just use the installed codecs and plugins |
21:21:17 | Bger | yep, but i doubt it could if the build is half an year old |
21:22:12 | amiconn | Yes, but then I have no need for any old build, except if I want to check how it behaves, and then I just do a full install |
21:22:42 | Bger | okay, it was just an idea... |
21:23:12 | amiconn | RoLo is still helpful for this, because I don't need to power down & power up again |
21:24:40 | amiconn | Bg3r: If you really want to keep such an old build for special purposes, just recompile it with a changed rockbox root |

23:35:59 | aridese | oh −− how does the original firmware use the 5002? |
23:36:26 | Soap | well ;) |
23:37:37 | aridese | i remember talking to someone about how the original firmware loads data into memory insted of pumping it straight into the 5002 |
23:37:46 | dan_a | It uses both of the cores - I'm working on doing that at the moment (amongst other things) but it is going slowly. One big problem if I get it working is that we think using both cores will use more battery |
23:38:00 | Bagder | aridese: eh, that doesn't make sense |
23:38:03 | dan_a | We buffer data in memory too |

23:54:32 | petur | just try that key sequence 4 times and back out, it's really funny. Do keep the paperclip handy |
