#rockbox log for 2006-12-16

00:00:10ender`jhMikeS: it doesn't slow down my system startup
00:00:14GodEaterperhaps it's my snprintf()
00:00:18GodEaterI used %d
00:00:25GodEatershould I use something else ?
00:00:42petur%x maybe
00:00:56GodEaterlemme try that
00:01:05jhMikeSender`: easy to get rockbox dev environment installed?
00:01:28linuxstb_GodEater: What's the value of the pinfo pointer itself? I would use %08x to display it...

00:08:34LloreanHey, you recording-ish guys, have either of you seen the post in the forums about the silent WAV files?
00:08:42peturyes
00:08:46jhMikeStested out well here too here.
00:08:55jhMikeSsilent wav?
00:09:04TerinjokesLlorean, who's making the ipodpatcher?
00:09:07 Quit defect (Read error: 145 (Connection timed out))
00:09:13peturLlorean: no idea, how can the file go bad after copying?
00:09:14*jhMikeS is getting that sinking feeling again
00:09:20LloreanjhMikeS: http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=7702.msg60323;topicseen#msg60323
00:09:29Lloreanpetur: I honestly have no clue.
00:09:39LloreanHe doesn't say if they tried the original files again, on the player, either.
00:10:14LloreanI hate this whole "I'm posting for a friend" stuff
00:10:19dan_aGodEater: Is this any use to you? It's a quick routine I wrote to hexdump the output of ata_read_sectors. http://pastebin.ca/280485
00:10:24LloreanTerinjokes: Why?
00:10:45amiconnCassandra: I do have both
00:10:47jhMikeSheaders they say? there's nothing to the headers. gotta be something else bizarre.
00:11:22amiconnSomehow I expect that you can't differentiate between Ondio FM and Ondio SP just by USB ID
00:11:22TerinjokesMy friend wants me to install rockbox on her video, wandered if the person needs any tests for nano/video from MacOSX
00:11:37LloreanjhMikeS: It seems really strange either way, but I can't come up with any solid "user-error" scenarios that'd get those exact symptoms either.
00:11:42dan_aGodEater: To use it you need to write a function "int wait_for_button(void)" which returns 8 if you press the button to go back a page and something else if you press any other button
00:12:17GodEaterI think I'll just paste the bits that do the output into the relevant functions
00:12:21GodEater:)
00:12:24jhMikeSWell, they can check it with a hex editor and if everything after the first 44 bytes is zeros, then it's truely a silent wav.
00:13:00GodEaterdan_a: thanks - I'll give it a whirl tomorrow - I'm too tired to think now - gonna get some shut eye
00:13:02LloreanTerinjokes: Well, the newest version is in the CVS source code, and you could ask linuxstb, but I'm not sure how good "testing as how you do your first install" is the best idea. I think it's working now though, if that last CVS commit regarding it was the fix to the 5G issue.

00:14:26*jhMikeS is going wtf about that one just like the jet engine sounds turned out to be having the wrong input selected. If the files were readable on the player's disk and a copy destroyed them, something wierd is afoot.

00:15:09Lloreanlinuxstb_: Right, I transposed the Attemp #2 and 2048 fix in my memory
00:16:26jhMikeSIf recording got to the end, it wrote the header...no question. if it didn't, my early experience was that any error in the header made playback reject it.
00:17:24peturfact is he says it reports length and datarate ok, so the header is there
00:19:47jhMikeSabsolutely...it writes it all in one shot. I'm wondering what this will turn out to be in reality. *running around making Boeing noises*

00:33:49amiconn(1) Recorder V1 <= 15GB and Player (most probably) have the same ID. It's the ISD200 bridge where the ID comes from
00:34:14amiconn(2) Recorder V1 20GB, FM Recorder and Recorder V2 have the same IDs as well
00:34:50 Quit scorche (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
00:34:52amiconn(3) Ondio FM and Ondio SP also have the same IDs (same Bridge)
00:34:56CassandraI thought the v1 and v2 had different chips.
00:35:15CassandraHence charging via usb on v2.
00:35:26amiconnThe V1 exists in 2 flavours, USB1.1 (same ID as Player) and USB 2.0 (same ID as FM and V)

00:38:40linuxstb_Isn't it also possible that other (non-Rockbox) devices will use the same bridge chip?
00:39:11Cassandralinuxstb, of course. But I don't think we need to be too concerned about that.

00:41:43linuxstb_Not sure about the "5.5g", but that's not an issue for the 30GB anymore and hopefully won't be for the 80GB
00:41:59 Part Terinjokes
00:42:09CassandraThe 5.5g will use the same Rockbox as the 5g in the end, so that doesn't matter so much.
00:42:16thegeekyep
00:42:32amiconnI guess that for device manufacturers it's cheaper to use some reference design + standard IDs assigned to the bridge manufacturer
00:42:44amiconn0x05ab is most probably In-System Design, not archos
00:44:18linuxstb_Useful list here: http://www.linux-usb.org/usb.ids
00:44:36linuxstb_(although not that complete...)
00:44:51CassandraA VID costs you $2000. And that's if you go the cheapskate's route.
00:45:01*jhMikeS notices the frequency of reported problems dropping sharply in recording though :)
00:46:17amiconnAh, as I suspected. 0x058f is actually Alcor Micro, not Archos (that's Ondio)
00:46:38amiconnSo it is very possible that there are other devices with the same IDs
00:48:01amiconnCassandra: Should I indicate that sub-models which are the same for Rockbox are having the same ID?
00:48:11amiconn(e.g. h120 and h140, h320 and h340)
00:48:13linuxstb_That pages lists the iriver 3002 id as H100/H120/H140... So I guess that covers both the 16MB and 32MB targets.
00:48:48Lloreanlinuxstb_: Our table shows something different.
00:48:58Lloreanlinuxstb_: The H100 listed there as 3001 not 3002
00:49:25linuxstb_Odd... Where did our listing come from?
00:49:34LloreanDunno.
00:50:29Cassandraamiconn: Sure.
00:50:32*linuxstb_ won't mention users connecting via firewire
00:50:40CassandraMore info is better than less.

01:00:35amiconnCassandra: Hmm, iirc there's some info in the usb2.0 archoses which at least allows to disambiguate those from other generic devices using ISD300
01:01:32amiconnI don't know how the fields is called, but my Amiga USB stack shows a lot of details about USB devices, among them a string:
01:02:57amiconnwwww.archos.comA
01:03:28amiconnHmm, USB provides a lot more info than just VID and PID
01:04:05amiconnHaha, "www.archos.comA" is the serial number field...
01:04:10amiconnwwww, even
01:04:37dan_abarrywardell: I think you should commit your current button driver, with a comment that it needs to be replaced with an interrupt driven one.
01:04:48amiconnAnd the product name is "ARCHOS USB2.0 (P4a)"

01:11:51dan_abarrywardell: I've done some quick poking about and I can't see why the interrupts arent working - unless the GPIO interrupt has a different mask on the PP5024. Maybe bit 23 on CPU_INT (which was IDE before)?
01:12:08LloreanPaulPosition: Is your MTP hooked up in MTP, or UMS mode, out of curiosity?
01:12:41amiconn_Cassandra: Can you read the USB 'product name' and 'serial number' fields?
01:12:48barrywardelldan_a: so it's nothing obvious anyway. i was wondering the same thing, but didn't investigate any further
01:13:32dan_aThis is the first time that we've tried to use CPU_HI_INT. I just mention that in passing

01:35:08Cassandraamiconn, looking at my five devices, I'm fairly hopeful for fuzzy matching on serial number as a means of telling apart units with the same ids.
01:36:08CassandraOf course we're going to have to get some serial numbers and work backwards.
01:36:19thegeekemailer33: there has been some progress today I think, but unless you really want to get down and dirty I suggest you wait
01:37:08linuxstb_emailer33: As of today, yes. The bootloader wasn't the problem, the problem was with ipod_fw.c creating a bad firmware partition image.
01:38:08linuxstb_emailer33: It needs testing, so I'm happy to talk you through it. Are you on Windows?
01:38:49amiconnCassandra: 'Serial number: n/a' That's an Ondio...
01:39:00emailer33i don't mind getting dirty, i can compile it on gentoo if necessary
01:39:05CassandraSame for FM and SP?
01:39:08amiconnyes
01:39:14emailer33i am on windows atm
01:39:17emailer33so il'l take either one
01:39:23thegeeklinuxstb_: there are still problems with the 80gb right?
01:39:30amiconnThere is no indication that this is an archos device on the USB side
01:39:45emailer33basically i just need eitehr the bootloader or just a patch, i'll do the rest
01:39:50amiconnThat's what the Poseidon gets on Amiga for the Ondio FM:
01:40:00amiconnProduct name: Mass Storage Device
01:40:02linuxstb_emailer33: You need the new ipodpatcher from here: http://www.davechapman.f2s.com/rockbox/ipodpatcher-test.zip and the bootloader from here: http://www.davechapman.f2s.com/rockbox/
01:40:08amiconnProduct ID: 0x9330
01:40:20amiconnManufacturer: Alcor Micro
01:40:34amiconnVendor: 0x058f Alcor Micro Corp.
01:40:40amiconnSerial #: n/a
01:41:07CassandraPah. Any way we can tell the difference from disk geometry?
01:41:13linuxstb_emailer33: You need to restore your original (i.e. unmodified) firmware partition first. Then just the command "ipodpatcher N -a bootloader-ipodvideo.ipod" will install the bootloader. (replacing N by the number of your ipod, found in the usual way.)
01:41:16amiconnNope.
01:41:25amiconnBoth are 128MB
01:41:25emailer33oooooooo
01:41:29emailer33that new add bootloader option
01:41:33emailer33i was just looking over that a sec ago
01:41:34emailer33ok thx
01:41:46linuxstb_And delete ipod_fw.exe...
01:41:51emailer33thx ;)
01:41:57CassandraThen people will have to pick for themselves, I guess.
01:42:04amiconnyes
01:42:32CassandraAm I right in thinking that SP firmware will work on a FM?
01:42:39amiconnSame goes for the other archoses, for the USB2.0 models we can at least check whether it is really an archos
01:42:41emailer33http://www.davechapman.f2s.com/rockbox/ just has 6 broken images, no bootloader :/
01:42:44amiconnnope
01:43:21amiconnThe archos loader won't load the 'wrong' firmware, and even when flashed it won't work
01:43:28amiconnIt would boot, but not play music
01:43:41linuxstb_emailer33: Sorry, it's http://www.davechapman.f2s.com/rockbox/bootloader-ipodvideo.ipod
01:43:47emailer33ok ty
01:43:51Cassandrafair enough.
01:44:06CassandraStoopid Archos.
01:44:26amiconnLooks like they didn't want to pay for a proper vendor id
01:45:33amiconnHmm, it _might_ be possible to auto-detect the various archoses if the user has an ajbrec.ajz / archos.mod on disk
01:45:44amiconn(which isn't required)
01:46:08barrywardellthe H10 has different VID/PID depending on whether it's connected in emergency UMS mode, or ing MTP mode
01:46:19*Llorean was right. :)
01:46:56LloreanAnd it needs to be in UMS to install Rockbox, right?
01:46:58SoapI didn't think about that, have the Apple's been verified to have the same VID in standard disk mode and emergency disk mode?
01:46:58barrywardellmy 20GB says 0x4102/0x2101in MTP mode
01:47:05barrywardellyup, UMS mode
01:47:12Soapor is the H10 example due to the MTP mode?
01:47:23Lloreanbarrywardell: So, it has the iRiver Flash VID in MTP, and the PP one in UMS
01:47:29barrywardellyup
01:48:14PaulPositionOkay, H10 5gb in MTP mode (now that I deleted rockbox from it) gives 4102 and 2102

02:01:26LloreanI don't know if there are practical differences, but it seemed best to verify the IDs were the same across all three
02:01:36BetaCookiesIs there a way to get my 1g nano to play video?
02:01:50LloreanBetaCookies: Convert the video to M2V, and play it in Rockbox.

02:12:25amiconnThere's a ton of warnings, and then:
02:12:32linuxstb_The Makefile is setup for my environment - native unix compiles, or a win32 cross-compile using Debian's mingw32
02:12:34BetaCookiesLlorean well it did, but then it gave an error that helped at none.
02:12:35amiconnipodio-posix.c:40:6: #error No sector-size detection implemented for this platform
02:12:41BetaCookiesthat made no sense :P
02:12:49emailer33ay, thats the error
02:12:55amiconnWhy does it use posix??
02:13:16linuxstb_Because that's the default Make target... You could try "make ipodpatcher.exe"
02:13:37amiconnmake: i586-mingw32msvc-gcc: Command not found
02:13:46linuxstb_But I'm not sure if Cygwin is the best environment. It should compile fine with a native win32 compiler.
02:13:49amiconnOf course not... it should be just 'gcc'
02:14:03LloreanIt still compiles fine natively in windows for me.
02:14:19amiconncygwin makes native win32 binaries with -mno-cygwin

02:15:37linuxstb_What if you remove the mingw prefix?

02:28:34linuxstb_The second is the encrypted flash contents.
02:28:54zylchebut .. but .. that's perposterous!

02:31:09amiconnIs that expected?
02:31:47linuxstb_amiconn: Yes, ipodpatcher doesn't touch the other images, only the first one. (unless it's simply to relocate them to make room for the bootloader).
02:32:06linuxstb_dan_a: No, we don't. And yes, I'm sure it would be very useful - especially if we could use it for audio.

02:46:12linuxstb_Llorean: Any ideas about how to go about releasing the new ipodpatcher and bootloaders? A small problem is that the new ipodpatcher isn't command-compatible with the old one.
02:47:55Lloreanlinuxstb_: Change the manual, take down the ipodinstallation wiki page, and put the new bootloaders and ipodpatcher at downloads.rockbox.org removing the others, so that the only option is to use the new one?
02:48:08LloreanI'm not quite sure why it needs to be command compatible, other than the few people out there who've created personal installation scripts
02:48:44LloreanThen maybe a new post on the front page of www.rockbox.org saying "Ipod installation now greatly streamlined, see your target's updated manual for details"?
02:52:21linuxstb_I'm thinking it may be useful to create a sort of beta install page, so that ipodpatcher can get a bit more testing.
02:52:30LloreanThat's a good idea.
02:53:06LloreanThen put word out in the forums that there's an easier install method, I suppose?

03:06:01amiconnI wonder whether it's possible to provide linux binaries which run on any linux of the same processor architecture
03:06:06dan_alinuxstb_: No - I don't know which IRQ the DMA is on
03:07:23dan_aPlus, I found I'd copied the wrong rockbox.e200 across - I don't have a working DMA NAND driver yet
03:08:22linuxstb_amiconn: Yes, I think Linux binaries are quite portable (at least, the ipodpatcher binary should be).
03:08:58linuxstb_dan_a: Yes, I was just reading MrH's document and noticed he hadn't worked out the interrupts. DMA seems of limited value without them.
03:09:05amiconnOn a related note: no wxwidgets 2.8 package for debian yet, just 2.6
03:09:55amiconnlinuxstb: (re DMA) It depends - for the lcd update on H300, DMA is very helpful even with polling for end-of-dma
03:10:48dan_aI guess it means that even if you yield()/sleep() the copy will still be going on
03:10:58emailer33−−force? what needs to be forced if its blocked?
03:11:25Lloreanemailer33: Right now, the program attempts to determine if a device is an iPod, and if the check fails, won't let you write.
03:11:36linuxstb_emailer33: ipodpatcher does a lot of checks to make sure it's writing to an ipod. If your ipod's firmware partition is corrupted in some way, it .....
03:11:45*linuxstb_ curses that Llorean can type faster
03:11:55emailer33ok gothca
03:12:02LloreanBut, if you're clever enough about doing things the wrong way, you can make an actual iPod unrecognizable, and while the program can be used to recover it, right now it'll refuse to let you.
03:12:02emailer33gotcha*
03:12:06emailer33yea that'd be good then
03:12:11amiconndan_a: Even without yield() it pays off on coldfire, just because it's going faster than transferring via the CPU
03:12:16LloreanWhich is why I'm glad I had a leftover old-style ipodpatcher at the beginning of my testing. :)

04:57:26LloreanThere are no files in the system folder?
04:57:54webguest66there are folders
04:58:35webguest66media, my recordings and servies
04:58:47webguest66ok then imin the wrong place?
04:58:51LloreanIn the folder named "system" is all that?
04:59:04webguest66no folder named system
04:59:07webguest66and i have show all files
04:59:50LloreanAre you in UMS mode?
05:00
05:00:11webguest66i belive so
05:00:14webguest66i did that trick listed in the pdf just in case
05:00:33webguest66should i try the other way?
05:00:40LloreanWait, so you aren't even sure if your device is an MTP or a UMS model?
05:00:46webguest66it does see my player as a removable hard drive
05:01:06webguest66so that would make it a ums
05:01:11LloreanIt's important to know which sort of player you have, because you need to download different files depending on which you have.
05:01:25webguest66ok
05:01:26LloreanIf you've used the UMS trick, an MTP device would show up as UMS, but you still need the MTP file.
05:01:47webguest66well the trick didnt do anything
05:02:08webguest66it has always reconisge it as a removable hard drive
05:02:10webguest66so it must be ums
05:02:13LloreanAs in, it shows up as a normal drive (with drive letter) when you plug it in normally?
05:02:19webguest66yea
05:02:21webguest66its always had that
05:02:50LloreanJust to verify absolutely: It shows up as an actual drive, and not as a Media Player, on the same screen as the drives but in a different category?
05:02:55TerinjokesLlorean, you are referring to windows, correct?
05:03:00LloreanTerinjokes: Yes.
05:03:09webguest66its H: drive
05:03:12Lloreanwebguest66: Okay
05:03:18webguest66and its windows
05:03:22Terinjokesok... MacOSX farther confuses this whole that :D
05:03:27webguest66xp
05:03:35Lloreanwebguest66: Then there should definitely be a System folder on that drive.
05:03:45webguest66there isnt
05:03:55LloreanTry manually going to H:\System\
05:04:11webguest66i did
05:04:12webguest66i got itn
05:04:16webguest66lol
05:04:20webguest66it didnt come up
05:04:21LloreanSo you didn't have all files showing after all.
05:04:28webguest66even tho i have show all files
05:04:29LloreanYou'd missed some setting.
05:04:40LloreanEither way, the file you need to back up, it's there?
05:04:46webguest66yea
05:04:49webguest66thanx
05:04:59webguest66i guess my show all files
05:05:00webguest66didnt work
05:05:11webguest66and i assumed that system directory was just refering to the root directory
05:05:23LloreanNah, we call that the root.
05:05:33webguest66lol
05:05:38webguest66ok ok well thanx
05:05:40LloreanThough, we do occasionally get people who say "I copied my files to D:\root\ and it doesn't work"
05:05:50***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
05:05:53webguest66lol
05:06:07webguest66ok well brb
05:06:45TerinjokesLlorean, on MacOSX a MTP device shows a removal device like anything else... that must be confusing!
05:07:12webguest66there isnt a h10.mi4 file in this directory either
05:08:13webguest66ok there is somethign wrong with my computer i cant for some reason show all files
05:08:30webguest66is there a way u can cut a file without be able to see it?
05:09:09webguest66cause its showing 2 hidden files in this directory but not the h10 file but i tried opening it manually by typing it in the addy bar n it worked

05:11:12Terinjokeswebguest, go to Tools>Folder Options
05:11:58webguest66i did
05:12:03webguest66its on show all files
05:12:11webguest66in the system folder it has files that are hidden
05:12:21webguest66but for some reason the h10 file isnt shown
05:12:32TerinjokesClick over to the second tab, and scroll till you see 'Display Hidden Files and Folders' (or something like that) and then underneth that make sure 'Show Operating System Files' (or something like that)
05:12:36webguest66i no what im doing this is just really strange
05:12:40webguest66i did that to
05:12:40Terinjokesare both checked

06:13:12Tomo85on the H10 do u extract the files to x:\system ? or just the x:\
06:14:41LloreanThe Rockbox.zip gets extracted to just X:\
06:15:01 Quit lucas43 (Remote closed the connection)
06:15:04Tomo85ok
06:16:52Tomo85does speech speak all the menus and song titiles? or just spell out the leters?
06:18:30LloreanSpeaks the menus, spells out song titles.
06:18:42LloreanThough you can run a program to create speech files for the song titles too.
06:19:04Tomo85ok
06:19:16Tomo85i ws wondering if it was actually a speech synth or just file being played
06:19:24Tomo85it would be good to make an automated process
06:19:35Tomo85so whenu updated ur songs it would automaticcaly make files
06:19:44LloreanWell, the tool to create the files is PC-side
06:19:45Tomo85voice files i mean
06:19:53LloreanYou run a single script, and it creates the files.
06:19:54 Quit BHSPitLappy (Remote closed the connection)
06:19:54Tomo85oh?
06:20:08LloreanSo automating it would just be a matter of running the script after copying your files over.
06:20:18Tomo85lol i see
06:20:27Tomo85is there pdf somewhere i can read more into it?

06:21:32LloreanTomo85: This is an older page, but it covers the general principal and instructions, I believe: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/VoiceHowto
06:21:43Tomo85thanx
06:22:10Tomo85on another note, when installing the fonts do u extract the fonts folder to x:\.rockbox ??
06:22:34LloreanI'm actually not sure what the .zip contains exactly.
06:22:45LloreanIt's either extracted to /.rockbox/ or just X:\
06:22:56LloreanBut the .fnt files should be in X:\.rockbox\fonts\ in the end
06:23:06Tomo85ok
06:23:30Tomo85cause if i just extracted the zip file it would overwirte the .rockbox folder
06:23:40LloreanThen yeah, that's what you want to do.
06:23:44LloreanBy overwrite it really means update.
06:24:07LloreanIt'll only overwrite files with the exact same names, and you shouldn't have any of those yet. :)
06:24:31Tomo85ok

06:28:50LloreanAs well, the backlight timer can be changed yes. That setting, and others, are covered nicely in the manual
06:28:55Tomo85i used the english british ibm viavoice i think
06:28:59Tomo85and i put it in lang

06:30:58Tomo85i thoughtit was automatically set enabled
06:31:02LloreanIt should be.
06:31:13LloreanSince someone who can't see the screen can't get to the setting to enable it.
06:32:02LloreanIf it's not working, I'm not sure what would be the cause right now, as long as everything's in the right place.
06:33:14Tomo85it was in the wrong folder
06:33:14Tomo85it was my fault

10:42:05LloreanWe need to figure out how it's encrypted so that we can figure out what it's looking for when it loads the firmware, so we can make it load ours.
10:42:17LloreanWhich of course, will be an entire porting effort on its own, since the 2nd Gen Nano is all new hardware.

10:57:26MicWantedhow do use the microphone with a H10 after uv installed the rockbox?
10:58:00LloreanI didn't think CVS Rockbox on H10 had recording yet, does it?
10:58:13MicWantedok
10:58:20MicWantedi gues it doesnt
10:58:29MicWantedthe speech doestn work very well either
10:58:33MicWantedi think there is a few bugs with the speech
10:59:08LloreanI wouldn't be surprised, honestly.

10:59:26tucozanyone with a gigabeat around?
10:59:28LloreanSpeech goes through periods of working quite nicely, but it fluctuates.
10:59:37MicWantedyea
10:59:57MicWantedi cant see very well thats why i wanted to it but since u can change the font size n colour i dont think ill need it
11:00
11:00:28tucozI am preparing the manual for the gigabeat, and need help with the buttons
11:00:39tucozi.e. where they are placed on the player
11:01:01jhMikeSIsn't H10 the SWCODEC one with like 2 bytes of RAM?
11:01:08MicWantedi was thinking of upgrading my 5gb h10 to like an iaudio 5xl hows the rockbox work on that? is it more devolped than the irvier?
11:01:20MicWantedjhmike i have no idea

11:02:43MicWantedwhat are thoes anchor players
11:02:52jhMikeSJust wondering cause I know there's a low memory SWCODEC and if it records I'm wondering just how that's gonna be pulled off.
11:02:58MicWantediv never heard of them b4 but they have more work on them than any others
11:03:08MicWantedman i have the worst lag lol im like a minute behind
11:03:40MicWantedoh well with its normally OS it just makes 128bit mp3s if that helps
11:03:50tucozscorche. thanks :) that was perfect
11:03:51MicWantedim not sure if its on the fly encodeing or what

11:05:44amiconnjhMikeS: No, the low-memory swcodec target is the iFP7xx - and it only has 1MB RAM
11:05:59***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
11:06:14amiconnThe H10 is a pretty standard PP target, and afaik recording isn't implemented yet for those
11:06:25tucozah. ok. But for the key reference, we could use this?

11:08:19jhMikeSamiconn: that would be a nightmare to support codec recording on. it would need its own simpler system.
11:08:23LloreanjhMikeS: I think there's an H10 and iPod recording patch in the tracker, actually
11:09:01jhMikeSLlorean: a new one? I know linuxstb has something but that one sure won't apply now.
11:09:10Lloreanamiconn: Oddly enough, the recording is crippled in UMS mode. In "Managed" mode, it goes up to 320kbps, but in UMS mode I think the limit is 128, or less maybe.
11:09:42MicWantedit doesnt have inline recording
11:09:45LloreanjhMikeS: No, that was it. I doubt it'll apply though.

11:10:08LloreanMicWanted: It'll probably be a while yet before recording works.
11:10:16Lloreanamiconn: The iFP series have both a line in, and a built in mic.
11:10:23amiconnjhMikeS: What would be the problem? The iFP uses loadable codecs for playback (though some are too big). Recording shouldn't be different...
11:10:37jhMikeSLlorean: not a chance it will but I did set up the encoders to compile for it
11:11:11t0dk0nOn ipods, would it ever be possible to make a custom disc mode thats native to rockbox? like the ipod firmware... that way it wouldn't have to reboot everytime into discmode, or having to go into original firmware use the faster built in disc mode
11:11:17amiconnThe good thing with flash is that there are no spinup delays, so no excessive buffering necessary.
11:11:29jhMikeSamiconn: it would have to flush pretty continuously without more than a second or two of room
11:11:36jhMikeSamiconn: oh, it's flash ah
11:11:55Lloreant0dk0n: That's planned in the future, but there's still many hurdles in the way.
11:11:57amiconnHehe, with a harddisk based device, 1MB RAM wouldn't make sense
11:12:44LloreanjhMikeS: The iFP-700 series come in capacities from, I believe 128 at the low end to 1 gig at the high.
11:12:45jhMikeSCould encode straight to the flash then I suppose.
11:13:05amiconnYou cannot directly access mass-storage flash
11:13:07t0dk0nLlorean: hehe, thats cool, thanks :)... I have the patience to wait, and perhaps, once I finally get a hang of C, I can contribute :D
11:13:23amiconnBut the recording buffers can be small
11:14:00jhMikeSamiconn: then where does the data get written and what functions do it? just file apis, right?

11:15:10amiconnThe flash based targets look no different from the hd based ones api wise
11:15:32amiconnIt's just that you don't have to care about spinups
11:15:43t0dk0nalright, night night
11:15:43 Part t0dk0n
11:16:07jhMikeSThe data write rate of the flash is sufficient for pcm file writing or just something like mp3?
11:16:49amiconnNot sure about the iFP flash read / write speed
11:17:16amiconnOn Ondio PCM recording will be really tight. Playback is ok up to 48kHz stereo
11:17:29LloreanjhMikeS: It's at least fast enough for 320kbps MP3, though iRiver supposedly has claimed that the bitrate limitation in UMS mode has to do with file write speeds (an odd claim).
11:17:37amiconn(but that's another story, not swcodec)
11:17:50LloreanThen again, the iFP firmware has been hacked to remove the cap on encoding in the UMS mode, and it's true that after a certain point it can't keep up.
11:18:21amiconnThe limitation on Ondio doesn't come from the flash itself, but rather from the interface
11:18:41amiconnOndio uses MMC in SPI mode, with a maximum clock of 3MHz (CPUCLK/4)
11:19:20amiconnHence we can read and write at a theoretical maximum of 375KByte/sec - and real-world speed is very close to that
11:20:31MicWantedwhich is the best player thats like 20gb +
11:20:42LloreanDepends on what you want from it.
11:21:11LloreanThere's a faction that favours the H120/140, a faction that favours the iAudio X5, and a faction that favours the rather old-school Archoses.
11:21:16MicWantedsound quality n battery life for audio pictures/vidoes arnt needed
11:21:38MicWantedi like iaudio
11:21:48MicWantedx5l looks nice
11:21:59jhMikeSbut iAudio has sound quality :)
11:22:07LloreanMy vote would be the H120/H140 since you said you want recording functionality earlier, and its is arguably the best of the SWCodec recorders right now
11:22:39MicWantedok
11:22:40jhMikeSarguably? :D
11:22:56LloreanjhMikeS: Can't the X5 do better analog recording?
11:23:03LloreanWider range of frequency choices?
11:23:42MicWantedi wud rearly use the recording tho
11:23:46jhMikeSIt has 88kHz, but it has that subpack thing and the input gains are not as adjustable
11:23:51LloreanYeah.
11:23:57MicWantedif i was doing to do seriously recording i wud buy a digital recorder that is made for it
11:24:09LloreanMicWanted: The H120 and 140 also have pretty darn good battery life, especially if you feel like plugging in a replacement one.
11:24:23MicWantedas good as the 5xl??
11:24:27MicWantedi thought that 1 was the best
11:24:38MicWanted35 hours on the site
11:24:40LloreanYou put a larger battery in them, you can get about 29 hours.
11:24:43MicWantedbut i dont no if thats true in real life
11:24:48LloreanThe x5L gets about the same thing in Rockbox right now.
11:25:01MicWanted29 hours is damn good
11:25:05MicWantedim getttin under 10 now
11:25:20LloreanThe retail battery in Rockbox can get between 12 and 19 hours, depending on battery age.
11:25:31LloreanAnd of course, usage patterns.
11:25:39MicWantedyea
11:25:57MicWantedwhat about the H10 does that improve?
11:26:18LloreanThe H10 is currently really work-in-progress and gets about half the battery life in Rockbox as it does in the original firmware
11:26:56MicWantedlol
11:27:11LloreanSame as the iPods really
11:27:11jhMikeSI still need a good battery bench and battery curve for an x5 (not L) but it was switching off at what seemed prematurely. Would like a good bench for an X5L with a rather constant current drain rather than normal usage but the bench I got from someone is good.

11:56:46jhMikeSamiconn: hmmm...then the buffer seeking isn't completing right. wonder if the message sending will affect that or did you try it and it's doing something new?
11:57:07dan_aLlorean: That's pretty much the idea - although it may be that everything we're not using is already turned off
11:57:10linuxstbamiconn: Odd that seeking doesn't work - I thought rotator had fixed that in CVS - i.e. Rockbox can seek even if there is no seektable in the FLAC file.
11:57:21amiconnjhMikeS: No, that's with plain cvs code
11:57:53amiconnlinuxstb: There should be a seek table. And it does this irrespecive of buffering, i.e. even if it's the first track in the playlist

12:04:18JdGordonlinuxstb: how did you go with statically linking rbutil?
12:04:26jhMikeSlinuxstb: is there going to be an update? That recording stuff should be pretty much stablized by now. I have a small mod to pcm_apply_settings pending (along with better internal DMA/PCM/peaking code) that removes the reset parameter (will be automatic) but not much else.

12:30:47LloreanAs from within Rockbox it's as simple as "hit stop, highlight track, choose 'playlist insert', and you have a 1-track playlist"

12:36:11barrywardell_i don't have an ipod to test on though
12:36:34 Nick barrywardell_ is now known as barrywardell (n=barrywar@194.46.179.85)
12:40:25Slasherijba: hi
12:41:02linuxstbbarrywardell: Thanks.
12:41:02jbahey mate, a while back i was asking about adding some rating meta data to database, and someone suggested i speak to you bout it?
12:41:46Slasherijba: then you might want also check roolku's patch on the tracker
12:41:53 Quit Thundercloud (Remote closed the connection)
12:41:56linuxstbOdd, "file ipodpatcher" tells me "ipodpatcher: compiled Java class data, version 2.0"
12:42:00Slasheriit already has the possibility to add manual rating
12:42:02jbait's implemented already then?
12:42:11jbaaah cooll
12:42:15Slasheriyes, it just needs some finishing before committing
12:42:19Slasheribut i am out of time right now..
12:42:19 Nick DreamThief|off is now known as DreamThief (n=mathias@p54A84F57.dip0.t-ipconnect.de)
12:42:29jbawhat's the deal with these kinds of patches, what does it take for them to make it to mainline?
12:43:00Slasheriit depends, for small feature changes and bugfixes it should be quite trivial
12:43:00linuxstbSlasheri: In case you didn't read it in the logs, the new ipodpatcher fixes the AppleOS loading on 5.5Gs. It even works on the 80GB models (because AppleOS is already in RAM, loaded by the Apple bootloader in flash).
12:43:20Slasheribigger changes then needs more to think about the implementation
12:43:49linuxstbbluebrother: Yes, the default wx compile is non-unicode. But most pre-compiled packages seem to enable it.
12:43:53Slasherilinuxstb: nice, i will test that soon :)
12:44:11Slasherinow i haven't used ipod at all in few days, liked more the iriver.. but will try it soon :)
12:44:26bluebrotherI think it's a bit strange, unicode is getting quite popular for linux distros these days
12:44:36linuxstbSlasheri: You need to restore a known good firmwre partition, then simply "ipodpatcher /dev/XXX -a bootloader-ipodvideo.ipod".
12:44:57*amiconn prefers -wf :)
12:45:07Slasheriah, fortunately i have backup of the original fw ;)
12:45:16jbaSlasheri, any doco on the pqtch, or just jump straight in?
12:45:19linuxstbamiconn: Did you try "-wf rockbox.ipod" ?
12:45:38amiconnNo, just the bootloader (built from current cvs)
12:45:44Slasherijba: if you would like to work on the commit the rating part only, it should be quite ok
12:45:50Slasheri*to
12:45:57JdGordondoes playlist creation need the plugin bufffer?
12:46:04jbacool will look into it

12:46:56Slasherijba: however, it needs to bump up the tagcache sturctures version, so it would be good to add some other meta tags to the structures also at the same time
12:47:11Slasherisuch as file modify timestamp, and last played timestamp fields
12:47:15barrywardelltucoz: up and down could be called play and menu
12:47:21tucozok. thanks
12:47:41dan_atucoz, barrywardell: it's a bad idea to call down "menu"
12:47:55barrywardelldan_a: true
12:47:57tucozwhat does it say on the player?
12:47:58dan_aThe power button is labelled "menu"
12:47:59jbais there any tool around to dump an itunesdb, into songs in the right filetree, and preserve the metadata?
12:48:19jbai.e. export itunesdb into a filestree usable by rockbox?
12:48:27linuxstbjba: Any of the "copy songs off the ipod to your computer" tools will do that.
12:48:34jbanot just read the itunesdb into tag cache with the current file structure
12:48:39linuxstbBut I doubt there are any which will simply move them on the ipod itself.
12:48:40Lloreanlinuxstb: Any tool that can organize music by their tags will do
12:48:53dan_atucoz: On the player, it's got a picture of a long line with three right justified short lines underneath
12:48:54linuxstbYes, but that won't use the itunesdb version of the metadata.
12:48:55LloreanFoobar2000 can create a directory structure off of the tags of music.
12:48:59LloreanAh, that's true.
12:49:04jbaexcept for ratibgs
12:49:10LloreanAssuming the itunesDB is more updated than the real tags, yeah. =/
12:49:30linuxstbAFAIK, if a user edits the metadata in itunes, the tags in the files don't change, only the itunesdb.
12:49:33jbai don't think ipod uses tags to store rating
12:49:36tucozdan_a, ok.
12:49:46LloreanYeah, iTunes doesn't like to change tags at all, actually.
12:49:47jbaand that's all i'm interested in
12:50:03tucozgot to go, bbl
12:50:11Slasherii was also planning to add auto endianess detection to tagcache, so it could detect correct endianess at runtime
12:50:14Lloreanlinuxstb: I think most tools that move songs off the iPod just use the normal song's metadata anyway. I'd be surprised many of them use the iTunesDB.
12:50:30barrywardelltucoz: http://thesansa.com/forum/fronton.jpg
12:51:00*amiconn wonders if / when we'll see the promised code optimisations for tagcache
12:51:03tucozthanks
12:51:21Slasheriamiconn: not very soon..
12:51:40Slasheriunless somebody else wants to do it
12:51:55jbawhat are they?
12:51:57jbaoptimising?
12:51:57amiconntagcache is quite a code blob, and provided that while it's nice thing to have not everybody uses it
12:52:11amiconnSo a cut-down on code size would be really good
12:52:29linuxstbLlorean: I would have guessed the opposite, but I've nothing to base that on...
12:53:12jbaif anyone knows of a tool, it would be helpful
12:53:14Slasheriamiconn: for some archos devices, it could be possible to disable the part of code used to initialize tagcache
12:53:23Slasherithat should drop code size quite a bit
12:53:25amiconn?
12:53:28Lloreanlinuxstb: I guess I have nothing to base it on either.
12:53:39Slasherithen the db could be initialized on pc only
12:53:40amiconnWouldn't that mean that tagcache doesn't work any more?
12:53:54amiconnAh, that init part you mean...
12:53:54Slasheriit would work, but could not be initialized / updated on the device
12:53:58Slasheriyep
12:54:04amiconnI don't think that would be a good idea
12:54:21amiconnBut tagcache creation could be made a plugin
12:54:34Slasherihmm, that's true also
12:54:50JdGordonthats proabbly a god mve for all targets
12:54:59amiconn...and if it's made a tsr plugin, there wouldn't be much difference in handling compared to today
12:55:02*jhMikeS is just trying to make sense of that ascii diagram at the beginning of tagcache.c
12:55:23amiconnJust that you couldn't run another plugin while creating the db
12:55:28 Quit barrywardell ()
12:55:32amiconn...or tagcache creation would stop
12:55:34Slasheriamiconn: so then it could run in background on dircached devices to automatically update the db?
12:55:44Slasherias it does now in the core
12:55:47JdGordonalways run in the backgronud
12:55:57amiconnIn theory yes, but then you can't run any plugin
12:56:01Slasheritrue
12:56:05amiconn*any other
12:56:17JdGordonis that such a big problem/
12:57:02amiconnSlasheri: I think it would be a good move on low-mem targets (where there is also no dircache and no tagcache-in-ram)
12:57:36Slasheriamiconn: might be, but then it would be necessary to do that on all targets
12:57:48amiconnTagcache needs to hit the disk anyway, so no real loss from the spinup caused by loading the plugin
12:57:51amiconnwhy?
12:58:01Slasherihmm..
12:58:15Slasherior maybe not :)
12:58:19amiconnJust code duplication, or other reasons as well?
12:58:28Slasheriif the plugin would be just a wrapper or something like that
12:58:32Slashericode duplication mainly
12:58:36amiconnMaybe there are some function which will need to be exported
13:00
13:01:19amiconnIt seems like we need some general libs (linkable both from core and plugins / codecs)
13:03:06jhMikeSPhase #1: optimize tagcache code size Phase #2: ??? Phase #3: Profit
13:04:20Slasheriit is also important to keep performance in mind while optimizing. Not everything can be ripped of without losing the performance
13:04:48amiconnOf course
13:05:17amiconnBut sometimes, optimising for size also reveal further possibilities for optimising speed
13:06:01***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
13:11:52jhMikeSrandom thought: looking around at some things, I'd like to see globally unique and meaningful error values. it wouldn't add size unless descriptive strings are associated with more of them. they'd be integers after all just like now. passing codec errors to the UI be shown to the user comes to mind as a use instead of showing splashes way down in playback.c.
13:13:08amiconnNow I'm puzzled
13:13:10Slasherii would like to have a syslog support with variable severity
13:13:24amiconnThe ipod mini played the whole damn folder without a single glitch :/
13:13:37Slasheriwith failures, it would automatically open something like a pop-up window and so user the error message
13:14:10Slasheri*tell user
13:14:49amiconnI'll test on my other cf targets later
13:15:00jhMikeSmy thinking atm was more center on recording since not every error means the disk is full. if codecs can set the error flags, it should be able to say why and not conflict on the values.
13:15:54jhMikeSThe recording screen can display the information in that case. But yeah, it goes way beyond that in usefulness.
13:16:25amiconnDon't waste too much thought about reporting rare errors
13:16:41amiconnE.g. I can't see why an encoder would fail at all
13:16:43jhMikeSSlasheri: I think we need some viewports to make that work nicely
13:18:45jhMikeSamiconn: it can in the file writing part. encoders call all the file apis so they can to the greatest extent manipulate what's output
13:20:27 Part Llorean
13:22:25 Part n1s
13:22:51*JdGordon 's .cue player is soo close to working its painful :'(
13:24:30linuxstbJdGordon: How do you use the cuesheet functionality if it's a plugin? Does that mean it's not available in the WPS?
13:24:37JdGordonnope
13:24:55JdGordontsr plugin which hooks into the button code to handle everything properly
13:25:06JdGordonminor hack, but I tihnk its acceptable hackign :)
13:26:23linuxstbDoes it handle the metadata as well? i.e. updating the track name? What about track length/number of tracks?
13:27:16JdGordonsort of. the track number is supposed to be updated, as is the track name. but the playlist length will be 1 always
13:27:24JdGordontrack length shows the actual file
13:29:57jhMikeSI'd like to have some nice way of letting code know (for logging and handling) and showing the user a reason for something bad happening. Common errors can have a string (many do already). Just a number for rare ones and a reference on the rockbox site or something. It could possibly even reduce code size a bit overall.
13:32:36JdGordonwhy is audio_get_file_pos() still in the code if the only things that use it are the codec and plugin apis (of which only splitedit.c uses it) and its code is return 0; ?
13:32:37Kasperlelinuxstb: http://www.rafb.net/paste/results/dd6cKf29.html
13:32:38Kasperle:)
13:32:51JdGordonand on those lines, how do I get the current track position?
13:33:15Slasherihmm, i also think the feature which limits volume to a certain (configurable) level after bootup should be committed
13:33:16jhMikeSJdGordon: noticed that too. odd.
13:33:28Slasheriwould be really useful if one uses player often as a lineout device
13:34:32jhMikeSJdGordon: imho high_watermark should be updated on every buffer reset since it depends on filebuflen
13:35:03JdGordonwell you kow that code better than me.. so I agree...
13:35:11JdGordon(or you nick tabbed the wrong person?)
13:36:46JdGordonid3->elapsed is the corect way to get the current positio in a trck ?

13:41:15linuxstbKasperle: :) Have you installed a bootloader with it?
13:42:06jhMikeSwhat's odd is that audio_set_elapsed doesn't set the elapsed time but updates id3->elapsed for the id3 passed in :\
13:43:55peturjhMikeS: we can put the error displayer in a plugin. For that we need another directory next to plugins and viewers. Maybe 'overlays' or something like that. Like what I did with the file/dir properties
13:44:01dan_aAny ARM gurus about? If I do "str r0, [r1]!" will that write r0 to the address in r1 and increment r1 by 4?
13:44:28peturwould also be nice if a plugin could have its own lang file then :)
13:44:36JdGordonthey can
13:44:45JdGordonwell.. they are supposed to be able to
13:44:56jhMikeSpetur: a lookup you mean? I think for really common ones there should be a language string but yeah, the plugin could show a description of rare ones
13:45:28JdGordonthat plugin wont be usable if anything has the plugin bffer tho
13:45:45peturyes
13:46:06peturtsr plugins will be a problem
13:47:03Kasperlelinuxstb: you are my hero
13:47:08jhMikeStrue, but they could write the number down for the rarities and look it up later
13:47:20Kasperlelinuxstb: booting rockbox and the original firmware works now
13:47:32Kasperlelinuxstb: when i install the rockbox bootloader with ipodpatcher
13:48:02linuxstbKasperle: Glad to hear it.
13:51:16Kasperlereally cool. thanks for your work :)
13:51:27JdGordondoes anyone know how to force the wps to reload the id3 info for the track?
13:51:47JdGordonits not as simple as I was hoping to change the track name mid song
13:53:16linuxstbKasperle: How is Rockbox running on your 5.5g? Any problems which you think are 5.5g specific?
13:54:39pixelmaJdGordon: that's a problem I run into too (not updating - I used two sublines then (which contained the same code)
13:54:57JdGordon:(
13:55:39pixelmaof course - that's the user side
13:55:43Kasperlelinuxstb: i don't have any experience with rockbox, this is the first time i ever used it, so i wouldn't really know
13:55:57Kasperlelinuxstb: so far it seems to work fine
13:56:04JdGordonI dont really want to touch the core much more than I already have... might have to tho
13:57:04*linuxstb still feels cuesheet/chapters/subtracks etc support belongs in the core wps/playback code
13:57:13jhMikeSJdGordon: That's stuck in the trackinfo no? I'd just revamp whatever I need to in the system to make it more flexible myself and fix any related bugs along the way.
13:57:43JdGordonlinuxstb: I agree, but for the time being a rock is easier
13:58:30*jhMikeS doesn't even like seeing wps_offset in playback.c. It shouldn't even know a wps exists.
14:00
14:02:07*JdGordon realises how bad track seeking is with mp3... 3sec margin of error!
14:02:37jhMikeSIt shouldn't know directories exist either. Some sort of iterator elsewhere should just tell it what's next/prev. no playlists, no particular awareness of metadata. just codecs and buffers.

15:44:12linuxstbThe zip file contains binaries of ipodpatcher for linux/win32/Mac OS X and new bootloaders for all ipods.
15:45:01linuxstbI've made one change to the bootloader - before starting the original stored in the firmware partition, it will look for the original firmware in a file called apple_os.ipod on your FAT32 partition (same places as rockbox.ipod - the root directory and .rockbox/).
15:45:43linuxstbYou can extract the apple_os.ipod using the "-rf" option in ipodpatcher. If you then install the bootloader using "-wf" instead of "-a" you should see improved boot times when starting Rockbox, but still have the Apple firmware available.

16:29:23o0SmOkE0oJust upgraded my Studio 10 with a 40 GB harddrive and made myself a Unilink dongle (Gnunilink is the opensource project)
16:29:47o0SmOkE0oNow I want them to communicate with each other, found alot of info but now I'm lost in al the code.. lol
16:30:03o0SmOkE0ohttp://sophana.free.fr/pmwiki2/
16:30:16o0SmOkE0oThis is a good link, but it is a litte bit out of date...
16:30:56o0SmOkE0oIn my opinion the easiest way would be to send al Unilink command to the Archos Studio 10 and let Rockbox decode them
16:31:04o0SmOkE0oJust like the Alpina-CDC plugin
16:32:22linuxstbI don't think anyone has worked on it. You could send an email to the rockbox-dev mailing list, just to make sure - not everyone will check the IRC logs.
16:32:58o0SmOkE0oWould be a cool project. But it's been on the net for almost 2 years. But I think it stopped :(
16:33:31o0SmOkE0oI will have a look at the dev-mailing list :). But nobody fooling around with Unilink ?

17:02:21linuxstbWhat do people think of Llorean's idea from a while ago to make the hold switch start the Apple firmware in the Rockbox bootloader?
17:04:02linuxstbThe idea is that it will be easier for people to start the Apple firmware, and also it will mean that if you accidentally reboot the ipod with the hold switch on, you get Apple OS (if installed) instead of the settings being reset. To reset the settings you would need to turn the hold switch on between the time the bootloader starts, and the time Rockbox starts.
17:04:34DerPapst_maybe a menu in the loader to coose from? ;)
17:04:35DerPapst_sounds good.
17:04:56linuxstbNo, we don't want to slow things down with a menu.
17:05:13linuxstbThere's always that other bootloader if you want a menu...

17:09:04 Join barrywardell [0] (n=barrywar@194.46.179.85)
17:10:52linuxstbAnother argument against the menu in Rockbox's bootloader, is that once "rolo" is working correctly, you will be able start the Apple firmware just by selecting an "apple_os.ipod" file in the file browser. So Rockbox itself would act as a menu if you kept the number of files in the root of your hard disk small enough to see the "apple_os" file when you boot.
17:11:18SUSaiyanaha
17:11:29SUSaiyanok no menu then :P
17:12:25linuxstbAnd with the apple_os.ipod file on the FAT32 partition instead of inside the firmware partition, Rockbox boots a lot faster.

17:21:46SUSaiyanallright
17:22:06linuxstbThe first checksum is the checksum stored in the file, and the second checksum is what's calculated by the bootloader. If they don't match, then the file is corrupted.

18:06:44SUSaiyanlinuxstb: how would i go about doing that though? will the same ipodpatcher commandline work for putting the rockbox loader on there?
18:09:03linuxstbYou need a partition editor capable of modifying the size of the partitions on an ipod (the Linux fdisk will do it). You then just use that to shrink the firmware partition, and create a new, larger FAT32 partition. You then need to format the FAT32 partition, and after that everything should carry on as normal.
18:09:58linuxstbOnly the start of the firmware partition is used, so it doesn't matter if you shrink it - as long as you don't shrink it beyond what it contains, which in the case of AppleOS can include a 32MB hibernation image.
18:10:19linuxstbThe Nike software also consumes about 17MB of your firmware partition...

18:17:59linuxstbBecause it's a complete dump of your ipod's RAM.
18:17:59Soaplinuxstb: I'm confused about what exactly you are working on. Is there somewhere I can read to catch up?
18:18:04SUSaiyanhehe
18:18:55linuxstbSoap: IRC logs over the past week... Short version is that I've rewritten ipodpatcher to directly modify the firmware partition. So an ipod bootloader install is now one command "ipodpatcher N -a bootloader-ipodnano.ipod"
18:19:22linuxstbipodpatcher is now also cross-platform, so it works on Mac OS X and Linux (and BSD) as well.

18:20:08 Quit jhMikeS (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
18:21:01linuxstbIt doesn't change anything structurally, but the new ipodpatcher gives you more choices about how to install Rockbox than the old ipodpatcher/ipod_fw combination. It also works reliably on the 5.5gs (booting the Apple OS didn't work in the past).
18:21:51linuxstbThe IpodInstallationBeta wiki page is a work-in-progress towards the new installation instructions.

18:24:21Soapsounds tasty, and sounds like what little I have been able to catch, I was getting confused by all the talk of new bootloader, hold switch behavior changes, shrinking partitions, etc.
18:24:35SUSaiyanhehe
18:25:47linuxstb-wf completely replaces the main firmware in the firmware partition with whichever .ipod file you install (apple_os.ipod, bootloader.ipod or rockbox.ipod).
18:25:58linuxstb-a adds a bootloader to the end of the main firmware.
18:26:43linuxstbSoap: I'm also doing some changes to the bootloader. Mainly the hold-switch behaviour that I described a couple of hours ago.
18:26:53SUSaiyanhmm, to the end?
18:27:03SUSaiyanso i cant shrink it that much then hm? :)
18:27:12Soapis -a like current behavior, or new?
18:27:27linuxstbYes, -a is identical to the old standard installation method.
18:27:52Soapand I hate to ask, but the advantage of replacing the AppleOS is?
18:27:59linuxstbFaster booting time.
18:28:50Soapand if you replace, can you boot apple os with ROLO?
18:28:52linuxstbThe Apple bootloader loads the entire contents of the main firmware image (the first image in the partition - not the entire partition) into RAM. Depending on the "entryoffset" set by ipodpatcher, it will either run the bootloader, or the the main firmware directly.
18:29:32linuxstbIf you replace, the bootloader can (I hope) load the apple_os.ipod file from the FAT32 partition (same way as it loads the rockbox.ipod file). But ROLO isn't (yet) working.
18:29:43linuxstb(issues with the COP)
18:30:13SUSaiyanill be back in about an hour :)
18:30:47linuxstbOn my Photo, I save a good 3 or 4 seconds of boot time by replacing the Apple firmware with the Rockbox bootloader.

18:40:35DerPhilso i didnt understand: "any hour now". does it mean there is a release already or that there can be one every hour?
18:40:55linuxstbIt means that a release is a few hours away.

18:41:12Phil^awaythx
18:41:16linuxstbYou can install it now if you don't mind half-finished install instructions.

18:41:27Phil^awaywell im away for a few minutes
18:48:25BiptoNlinuxstb: can i comment out this line "#define HAVE_ADJUSTABLE_CPU_FREQ" in the config-ipod4g to disable freq scalin ?
18:49:15linuxstbBiptoN: Yes, that's all that's needed.
18:50:09linuxstbBiptoN: Or you could test the patches in the patch tracker which attempt to fix it correctly. I can't remember the patch #, but a search for "cpu scaling" should find it.
18:50:16BiptoNcan i also change the default cpu frequency to save a little juice and still handle most audio codecs?
18:50:18BiptoNalright
18:50:22BiptoNi'll check that out
18:50:45BiptoNdoes that affect your/barry's recording patch also that you know of?
18:50:56linuxstbNo, they should be independent.

18:56:18linuxstbIf your question is which format will give you the longest runtime, then look at the IpodRuntime wiki page for some answers.

19:02:29Phil^away[ linuxstb ] It means that a release is a few hours away. <- sorry, my english is not very goof is "away" in this case ago or are you still waiting?

19:08:35lukaswayne9how do I boot into the original firmware with rockbox installed? i've got an ipod g5
19:08:41linuxstbSlasheri: Would you be able to test the bootloader in that ipodrelease.zip file on your Video? The bootloader is now using the hold switch to determine which fimware to load.
19:08:44Phil^awayi used rockbox on my ipod yesterday and someone told me i should wait for the official release because it could damage my hdd
19:09:00linuxstbPhil^away: These files will be the same as the official release.
19:09:12linuxstbIt's mainly the instructions which are not quite finished.

19:09:48linuxstbIt won't damage your hard disk, but it could corrupt the filesystem - fixed by restoring with itunes.
19:10:04lukaswayne9linuxstb: there's a bootloader that will load an os based on the hold switch?
19:10:06Slasherilinuxstb: is it enough just to dd the boot partition?
19:10:36linuxstbSlasheri: Yes. I'm assuming you want to restore to the factory state?

19:12:26linuxstbSlasheri: You should simply restore the original bootpartition using dd, then run "ipodpatcher /dev/XXX -a bootloader-ipodvideo.ipod".
19:12:47Slasheritrying now
19:13:13linuxstbOther tests are to first extract the apple firmware using "ipodpatcher /dev/XXX -wf apple_os.bin", copy that .bin to the root of your FAT32 partition, then replace apple_os with the Rockbox bootloader "ipodpatcher /dev/XXX -wf bootloader-ipodvideo.ipod"
19:13:33linuxstbSorry, that should be "-rf apple_os.bin"....

21:11:53bluebrothersure.
21:12:02bluebrother1. Rockbox is not linux
21:12:09webguest05lol
21:12:13bluebrother2. depends. Maybe. Maybe not
21:12:46bluebrotherif someone with a device starts to port it a port may happen. Otherwise not.
21:12:52webguest05so far as i know it depends on this f**cking firmware
21:13:15bluebrotherbut as the hardware seems to be completely different this will be most likely a completely new port
21:13:18linuxstbDerPapst: To answer your question about scramble - don't use the -ipodXX options. ipodpatcher does things better.
21:13:19webguest05any glue to decrypt it?
21:13:31bluebrotherinstead of an adaption to a new ipod generation
21:13:36DerPapstok. thank you :)
21:13:53webguest05lol the pope is here
21:14:15DerPapstyes... i'm here
21:14:17OPUIRCUserwhat if my firmware partition is too small ?
21:14:25linuxstbDerPapst: In fact, I'll probably delete those options soon, as they generate firmware images which are not compatible with ipodpatcher.
21:14:27DerPapstdid you know that the real pope has a nano?
21:14:28OPUIRCUserfor the rockboot.bin generated ?
21:14:45bluebrotheryes .. we have everybody, the pope and even forehead sometimes :P
21:14:45webguest05no i didnt yet, cooooool
21:14:53linuxstbOPUIRCUser: Then your rockboot.bin is most likely wrong.

21:55:00linuxstb_This time I am actually connected twice - once on my laptop, once on my PC.
21:55:09peturheh
21:55:10SUSaiyani knew it!
21:55:32linuxstb_But mostly I'm connected 4 times because of my crappy internet link...
21:55:58DerPapstonly 4 times? ^^
21:56:25SUSaiyanlol
21:56:39SUSaiyandid linuxstb read the backscroll though?
21:56:52linuxstb_Yes
21:57:12SUSaiyanokay
21:57:35linuxstb_What are your problems?
21:58:05SUSaiyanwith what? :)
21:58:26linuxstb_Anything I've done...
21:58:45SUSaiyanokay, well, just that the apple_os doesnt boot
21:59:04linuxstb_But it works with -a, just not if you write the bootloader with -wf ?
21:59:08SUSaiyanit loads, states its loaded, and waits 2 sec, then reboots
21:59:14DerPapstuse the all new and completely remasterd ipodpatcher :)
21:59:15SUSaiyani havent tried -a
21:59:29linuxstb_I thought you said that earlier.
21:59:31SUSaiyanDerPapst: thats what we are talking about here ;)
21:59:41DerPapstah.. ok
22:00
22:00:18DerPapstmeh.. i better shut up ^^
22:00:25SUSaiyanwell, when i use -wf with this version, rockbox boot, apple os doesnt
22:00:33SUSaiyanwith the other version, neither would boot
22:00:46linuxstb_Also, when you use ipodpatcher with your ipod, do you keep an eye on the disk activity icon on the LCD, and make sure it's off before you disconnect.
22:01:02neutrinoonce I have but rockboxfirmware, can I still boot the APple os ?
22:01:23DerPapstyes
22:01:32SUSaiyanno, i do not, i assume that when windows tells me its safe to disconnect, its safe to disconnect
22:01:56SUSaiyanof course, its windows, so i really shouldnt assume such a thing
22:02:23DerPapsthehe
22:02:54SUSaiyanbut i usually use ipodpatcher before putting the rockbox files on there, so id guess that it would write the bootloader before doing that
22:03:09Kasperleshould the apple os still be bootable if you write the rockbox bootloader with -wf? what does -wf do, the description output by ipodpatcher doesn't quite tell?
22:03:38DerPapstit replaces the firmware
22:03:45linuxstb_It replaces the appleos with the bootloader, instead of merging them.
22:04:05Kasperleso. if rockbox boots, but appleos doesn't, all is well?
22:04:18linuxstb_Yes. It should tell you "no retailos found".
22:05:21Kasperleso SUSaiyan is experiencing the desired behaviour :D
22:05:29SUSaiyannot completely
22:05:38KasperleSUSaiyan: how so?
22:05:54SUSaiyanbecause it should be able to boot the apple_os.ipod
22:05:59linuxstb_Before you do -wf you should do "-rf apple_os.ipod" and put that file on your FAT32 partition (in the root or in .rockbox)
22:06:20*DerPapst tries the -wf option
22:06:47Kasperlelinuxstb_: will that work on those ipods that have one of those additional "rsrc" firmware images as well?

22:07:03SUSaiyanlinuxstb: it should be the same each restore, right?
22:07:06linuxstb_It should do. The rsrc image remains in the firmware partition.

22:08:40linuxstb_Restore it using itunes.
22:08:47SUSaiyanin windows
22:09:01linuxstb_But what exactly is the problem? And what did you do before it happened?
22:09:25daveyfx2no drive letter is showing up when i plug it in
22:09:35linuxstb_You're running Rockbox?
22:09:42daveyfx2no
22:09:47SUSaiyanlol
22:09:57daveyfx2but i want to
22:10:13linuxstb_Does the ipod work by itself?
22:10:17SUSaiyanso you first used it on a mac?
22:10:28daveyfx2linuxstb no
22:10:33daveyfx2SUSaiyan i don't have mac
22:10:36SUSaiyanlol
22:10:43linuxstb_So your problem is that your ipod is broken?
22:10:49BiptoNyou may need to use itunes on a pc to restore it
22:10:52linuxstb_What does it do when you turn it on?
22:10:56BiptoNthe ipod updater
22:11:17BiptoNdaveyfx2: you can get old ones from ipodlinux guys
22:11:31SUSaiyandaveyfx2: does windows tell you a device is connected when you plug it in?
22:11:34linuxstb_davyfx2: http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
22:11:39daveyfx2SUSaiyan no
22:11:54SUSaiyanokay thats bad ^^
22:12:16daveyfx2does rockbox work with ipod shuffle 2nd gen
22:12:31linuxstb_No. Just the ipods listed on http://www.rockbox.org
22:13:14linuxstb_SUSaiyan: Why did you ask if apple_os.ipod should be the same after each restore? Is that the case for you?
22:13:18daveyfx2does ipod shuffle work with non usb 2.0
22:14:05SUSaiyanlinuxstb_: because i dont know if it should be, and im just using the one i made a couple of restores ago
22:14:17SUSaiyanand i thought that might be why it didnt want to boot
22:14:20BiptoNdaveyfx2: should work fine, just ALOT slower ;)
22:14:33linuxstb_Ah, OK. Could be useful to read it again, and see if they differ.
22:15:02SUSaiyanill check that after the movie ;)
22:15:06webguest05linuxstb wich of the 3 images is the firmware?
22:15:28daveyfx2does ipod shuffle 2nd generation work with USB 1.0 or USB 1.1
22:15:37SUSaiyan2.0
22:15:56SUSaiyanand all the ones before 2.0
22:16:05linuxstb_They're all part of the firmware. The osos is the main firmware. The rsrc is resources. The aupd is the part of the firmware that runs from flash (bootloader, diagnostics mode, emergency disk mode).
22:16:05webguest05USB 2.0 is backward compatible to USB1.X
22:16:08daveyfx2i had ipod that didn't work with usb 1.0
22:16:23daveyfx2i had ipod that didn't work with usb 1.0 but worked with usb 2.0

22:41:47linuxstb_The disk is physically 512-byte sectors, it's just the USB disk mode that presents it to a computer as having 2048-byte sectors.
22:42:42DerPapstand it detects the correct model-name of the hdd.
22:42:56linuxstb_Yes, the Rockbox bootloader does that as well.
22:43:00Kasperlei was able to boot the linux kernel before on my 30gb 5.5g. if i created a fake partition with all the sector offsets off by a factor of 4, then linux would complain "error trying to read beyond the end of device", same thing with some quick and dirty hacks to the linux kernel (essentially just modifying linux's idea of the physical sector size) and a "legit" 2048 byte/sector partition table
22:43:09DerPapstso loader 2 too
22:44:10DerPapstthe kernel has no problems booting from a hfs+ filesystem on the 5.5G
22:45:05linuxstb_The issue is the partition table, so that could well be different on a hfs+ ipod (Apple Partition Map, not a DOS partition table).

23:52:46tucozbut i am lost to who (one person) we should add as a copyright holder for large parts of the manual
23:53:06DerPapstkasperle: i've now made a new partitiontable on my ipod.
23:53:14tucozI do know that nils have added lots of the plugins at least
23:53:45 Quit petur ("sssssssssss---------PLOP!")
23:53:58DerPapstmkfs.vfat -F 32 -S 2048 /dev/sda2 should format it correctly?
23:54:20tucozbut a credits solution for the old stuff, and maybe start adding 1 copyright holder for files we are certain of?
23:54:27tucozand new additions
23:54:40amiconnFor the code files, the copyright holder is either the initial creator of that file, or (in case of splitting / moving, e.g. for target tree) who wrote most of the moved code (again, at the time the move was done)
23:55:33bluebrothertucoz, something like this? http://pastebin.ca/281607
23:55:52tucoznice :)
23:56:45bluebrothermaybe also add a "see the file CONTIBUTORS for a full list of contributors to this manual"?
23:56:48bluebrotheror something similar

23:58:07tucozYes, that would fit nice. Do you think we should add this one for the unknown and untraceble parts, and the known copyright holder for the other/new files?
23:58:35bluebrotherat least we could start with this.
