#rockbox log for 2007-01-07

00:00:08senabdan_a: isn't the codec the bulk of the processing though? so the cores will be lop-sided if u get what i mean
00:00:12tamacrackerok so shut the battery off for a few seconds, im assuming?
00:00:12tamacrackerok
00:00:16MalakaiIRC is a darwinian hoop end-users are made to jump through before they are worthy of help.
00:00:28MalakaiWEB IRC defeats that darwinism
00:00:37dan_aLlorean: Oh, that's OK then :D
00:00:39Malakaitam: don't assume: read.

00:01:08Lloreandan_a: I was kinda disappointed that codec on cop was only 5% better though.
00:01:15tamacrackerlynx?
00:01:17tamacracker<,<
00:01:25Lloreantamacracker: Web browser.
00:01:26dan_asenab: The codec is the bulk of the processing, but there's a possibility that something is holding it back, so it isn't using 100% of the COP when it's sat there on its own
00:01:45senabcan the two cores be boost independently?
00:01:49Lloreandan_a: Did anyone advance either the memory bandwidth or lockstepping theories?
00:01:49tamacrackertime out...
00:01:58tamacrackeroh
00:02:01tamacrackergo to that link
00:02:10Lloreansenab: The second core can run at a fixed fraction of the speed of the primary core. It can't be faster but it can be 1/2 or 1/4 I believe

00:03:02senabwouldn't it be better to have the codec on the main core, and the rest on the cop then?
00:03:33BiptoNdoes it waste more battery having the COP run code?

00:04:14dan_aLlorean: I'm going to try seeing how often all of the threads on the COP are sleeping when the codec thread is running on it
00:04:14 Nick Mouser_X3 is now known as Mouser_X (n=mouser_x@67.110.120.159.ptr.us.xo.net)
00:04:36BiptoNsorry bout that
00:04:38dan_aBiptoN: Because it's not in low power sleep mode when threads are running
00:05:25dan_aYay! I'm getting a player that Rockbox can play music on without skipping :D:D:D
00:05:42Mouser_XHeh.
00:06:20senabdan_a, if the codec thread is the main use of processing wouldn't it make sense it put that on the main core, then most of the others on cop?
00:06:55senabthat way, the cop wouldn't need to run at boosted speed
00:07:15senab...if needed
00:07:19dan_aWe don't know how to change the speed of the COP independently of the core
00:07:27tamacrackeromg
00:07:29tamacrackeri love this

00:07:47tamacrackeryou guys are freakin awesome!
00:07:49senabfrom what llorean said, i thought you could

00:08:53KCCthese gigabeats are popular, i see
00:08:54tamacrackeri truly love this.
00:09:05*dan_a wants PortalPlayer documentation for his birthday
00:09:25tamacrackeri gotta find out how to make the font bigger lol
00:09:34Mouser_XFrom what I've seen, the Gigabeat is only a touchscreen short of being a low-end PDA.

00:10:24tamacrackeri would say 3/2 inches
00:10:27tamacrackeroh ok
00:10:28tamacrackerha
00:10:29BiptoNLlorean: sorry if I missed it, but has the COP been in a powerless sleep mode before or inactive yet still consuming power?
00:10:38tamacrackerhey in the font menu
00:10:38Lloreandan_a: How long until your birthday. Mine may be sooner, in which case, I can ask for 'em. :-P
00:10:45tamacrackerisn't that where i choose font and size?

00:11:39BiptoNi just put a 900mAh battery in my ipod4g, that would explain only 6 hours battery life than i spose
00:11:44KCCwoow, beatMPgirl looks AMAZING!
00:11:48KCCanybody running this?
00:11:56Lloreandan_a: Ah, unfortunate.
00:12:00*Mouser_X has no Gigabeat yet.
00:12:03senabthe battery runtime is a bit crap anyway
00:12:06Mouser_X^ @ KCC
00:12:40senabdan_a: that just sounded dirty x-/
00:13:00senabignore me, i'm missing my gf lol
00:13:22KCCanybody got a car charger for their GigabeatF?
00:13:30senabcheck ebay
00:13:34KCCim gunna build my own if nobody sells a proper one lol
00:13:37tamacrackeri do
00:13:41tamacrackerjust go to walmart
00:13:44tamacrackerby a universal
00:13:48tamacrackerlook in the toshiba manual
00:13:53tamacrackerat how much voltage it needs
00:13:59tamacrackeri think it's 4.5 or 6
00:13:59KCCit needs 5v
00:14:02tamacrackerone of the two.
00:14:10tamacrackeryeah so use 4.5 :D
00:14:17KCCiwas told that was a bad idea
00:14:21senabuse 5v
00:14:30tamacrackerwhat's a bad idea?
00:14:35KCCare those chargers on eBay safe?
00:14:41tamacrackerto use a .5 lower voltage?
00:14:44KCCtamacracker: 4.5v on a 5v gigabeat

00:15:57Mouser_XI thought it could. I wouldn't know.
00:16:02Mouser_X:/
00:16:04tamacrackeri don't believe so... not that i know of honestly lol
00:16:22tamacrackeris there any way i can make the font... "a lot" bigger?
00:16:31KCChttp://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130062880113&sspagename=ADME:L:RTQ:CA:1 ... this guy claims 5.0 volt and 2867mA
00:16:34senabdownload a different font, it's the only way
00:16:38KCCwould that be safe?
00:16:53Mouser_Xtamacracker: Change the font, or the WPS, I think.
00:16:59senabi don't know, i haven't got a gigabeat, check the manual
00:17:02tamacrackerwps and font doesn't change >.>
00:17:07Lloreantamacracker: Just pick a larger font. Try Unifont, it's fairly large, and supports many character sets
00:17:28tamacrackerok
00:17:46senabyes the gigabeat can charge from usb
00:17:52tamacrackerlol
00:18:00tamacrackerthe font sizes definitely do not change.
00:18:11tamacrackerand the .wps doesn't change either.
00:18:26Lloreantamacracker: So, "Unifont" shows up in the browse fonts list?
00:18:27Mouser_XDo you have different WPS and fonts installed?
00:18:43tamacrackeryeah Llorean
00:18:51tamacrackeryeah Mouser_X
00:18:56tamacrackerI have 3 .wps
00:18:58LloreanAre you actually selecting it or just highlighting it and backing out of the menu?
00:18:59MalakaiThe WPS file format should include a target resolution line.
00:19:01tamacrackerand a crap load of fonts
00:19:03LloreanI'm guessing you're pressing the wrong button on it.
00:19:06tamacrackerbut the fonts and wps files dont do anything.
00:19:28tamacrackeri hit the very center of the cross... which is to select.
00:19:43 Quit orkid ("Konversation terminated!")
00:19:43senabi quite like the look of those gigabeats
00:19:46tamacrackerunless the center of the cross no longer is the select button?
00:20:05LloreanI don't have a gigabeat.
00:20:09LloreanWhat does the manual say?
00:20:22goffacenter cross is select
00:20:38Malakaitamacracker: push the right arrow to select the WPS theme
00:20:39tamacrackerwps files - i catcher, rock box default, and unicatcher
00:20:46tamacrackerdid Malakai.
00:21:00tamacrackerit even says loading
00:21:38Russ__lemme try. The default font is bugging me too. Just downloaded the font pack.
00:21:51Malakaiworks for me, and i just did a full build from CVS
00:21:59Malakaiwith make fullzip
00:22:06Malakaifont switching and theme switching work fine
00:22:09tamacrackeri didn't do CVS >.>
00:22:12tamacrackeri did daily.
00:22:14senabwho made icatcher for 320x240?
00:22:29tamacrackeri like the zooming option on the pictures...
00:23:46Russ__Ok - here is the only dealbreaker for me totally switching to rb on my F40. I need a quick "delete current song" option. It doesn't seem like that is in rockbox at all.
00:23:46tamacrackercrap non of the three themes work.
00:23:51LloreanRuss__: Try reading the manual.

00:24:47Malakaidealbreaker huh. You mean you're prepared to walk away w/ o that one
00:24:51Russ__Don't you have to go back to the file browse menu and delete the song from there?
00:25:14Mouser_XI don't think so... This was talked about a day or 3 ago.
00:25:31Russ__Yeah - probably brought up by me. ;-)
00:25:35senabgotta say, i love some of the gigabeat wps'
00:25:42LloreanRuss__: Click and hold on the file, and choose delete.
00:25:55LloreanRuss__: If you're in WPS, clicking and holding should pop up the menu for the current file.
00:25:55tamacrackeryeah
00:26:03Mouser_XRuss__: If it was brought up by you, then you missed the answer.
00:26:05LloreanYou may want to choose to have the filetree follow the playlist.
00:26:12Mouser_XThe solution was already brought up.

00:26:34tamacrackersweet
00:26:34tamacrackerthank you senab
00:26:42senabmy fave is pixel
00:26:55senabthink i'm going to port that to 320x240
00:27:23tamacrackeryou like pixel?
00:27:26Mouser_XI'm planning on porting the iPod's Winamp styled WPS.
00:27:27tamacrackerthat's too unix for me man
00:27:29tamacrackerLOL
00:27:39Mouser_XI like Pixel as well, actually.
00:27:44tamacrackeryeah i would love to have a winamp look alike for my gigabeat
00:27:47tamacrackerreally?
00:27:52tamacrackeri guess simple is ok?
00:27:57Mouser_XIndeed.
00:28:02senabi like Sta aswell, got a lot of potential
00:29:00tamacrackeryeah sta is nice
00:29:00tamacrackeri like that gui
00:29:08Mouser_XI still need a Gigabeat though, before I start any porting of WPS themes...
00:29:10senabseems a lot more logical having the screen portrait ways
00:29:14tamacrackerthat's one of the reasons why i choose linux over windows.. .the gui.
00:29:36senablinux can be just as nice believe me
00:29:58Russ__Alright - I think I got it now. Lots of different options. Too many buttons - hehe.
00:30:23tamacrackerBeatMP Girl is the kind of GUI i like.
00:30:30tamacrackeri like the play button
00:30:42tamacrackerand the bottom bar... looks "wet"
00:31:04senabthe 'glass' effect
00:31:07tamacrackeryep :)
00:31:14tamacrackerthat's where it is man
00:31:17tamacrackerthe glassy/wet look
00:31:34senabi based a wps on that for the 5g ipod
00:31:52tamacrackernice
00:32:34senabi'm trying to make a wps for use in my car, but the trouble is they look crap with the large fonts
00:32:58senabi guess it'll have to be functionality over aesthetics lol

00:37:02senabmouser_x, most wps' use patches though

00:38:50Mouser_XLlorean: Thanks for the link. That will be useful.
00:38:54LloreanYeah, but I think the conversation eventually came around to "With how far off viewports are, it is a valid feature"
00:39:03LloreanBut it was a while ago and I could remember poorly
00:39:24senabthere are some drawbacks with scrolling margins though
00:40:06senabalbum art is also a personal must have
00:40:08LloreanThe fact that they don't update except on track changes?
00:40:17tamacrackereeek
00:40:18LloreanAlbum Art is still waiting on Metadata on Buffer.
00:40:22tamacrackeri really gotta work on the font size.
00:40:37tamacrackerthe font is just way too small for me to read while driving.
00:40:43senabno the fact that the margins don't reset the lcd margins on a new line
00:40:57senab*no the fact that the margins don't reset to the lcd margins on a new line
00:41:12LloreanAh
00:41:19LloreanI can't imagine that being a hard fix.
00:41:32senabi was going to have a look, just haven't had time
00:41:32LloreanThen again, if it were easy, it would be fixed, I'd think
00:41:45senabno one is updating it anymore afaik
00:42:09LloreanYeah, I recall the author getting rather frustrated that several of his things didn't get into CVS, if it's the incident I remember.
00:42:23Russ__Ahhh - unifont. Big improvment.
00:42:25tamacrackerwould I be able to delete these fonts? and reinstall them?

01:45:43LloreanMalakai: Honestly, the most irritating are the feature requests we get for things that Rockbox already does. I'm always tempted to type as further explanation for closing them "User is illiterate, or immune to manuals"
01:46:12MalakaiBug Cause: Somewhere between keyboard and back of users head.
01:46:21LloreanThe fact that they went through the effort of going to our feature request tracker, and typing out a request for something, without first just checking the manual. Heh.

01:47:04tamacrackerWhen starting the mp3 player and holding A buttom
01:47:07tamacrackerbutton.
01:47:14tamacrackeri get an error.
01:47:30scorcheyeah, but not all OS projects have 12 year olds wanting to install and use their product for doom
01:47:30MalakaiP: "Doctor when I do this it hurts."
01:47:33MalakaiD: Don't do that
01:48:09Lloreanscorche: Many OS products also don't have full PDF manuals with screenshots and everything
01:48:21tamacrackerError: Woops, should not return from firmware!
01:48:24scorcheLlorean: and regularly updated
01:48:25Malakaiscor: Crystalspace had a group like that for awhile. It was tied to a MMORPG and people who beta'd the game would come into the CS channels begging for some high level featgure already possible
01:48:52MalakaiThe documentation for RB is very impressive. It's just sad to think how few people will ever read them
01:49:15Malakaibut if they weren't there, people would say "OMG, make some documentation and maybe we won't ask stupid questions"
01:49:43tamacrackerIs there any other way to convert the files from sat to mp3 other than using windows media player?
01:50:22tamacrackerI can't even go back to my default firmware :\
01:51:06dan_aI would love to see some documentation installed onto the players with Rockbox. I'm thinking about ways to do this.
01:51:17Malakaitamacracker: there is a process. but it's not fun
01:51:34tamacrackerim assuming through notepad?
01:51:41Malakaitamacracker: if you get the GB into MTP mode via WMP, you can at some point bring up a MTP view of the files, and they are decrypted
01:51:48Malakaiyou can then transfer them to the HD at USB 1.1 speeds
01:52:22FebsMalakai: I did a survey on the forums once, and was surprised by the number of people who had at least referred to the manual.
01:52:30tamacrackerugh just thinkin about downloading all those albums again makes me sick to my stomach
01:53:06Malakaiyou should buy an external 160GB drive in a USB enclosure and make it your MP3 library, then pull from there and push to any DAP you buy
01:53:09tamacrackerMalakai, what does that error mean? Woops, should not return from firmware! ?

01:56:55MalakaiI thnk the TEX files are pretty structured
01:57:15Malakaiif you go TEX -> XML you might be able to write a simple XSL to get a rough WML version
01:57:15tamacrackerRuss_ i have no idea
01:57:22Malakaibasing each WML card on a section/paragraph
01:57:23tamacrackerit will just freeze

01:58:19MalakaiThey tried to make the watchdog timer do it, but must be missing some setting
01:58:20tamacrackerdamn i wish i would have known that before installin this firmware, i would have been able to convert my mp3s back to normal.
01:58:25dan_aMalakai: I'll look at that idea
01:58:33Malakaitamacracker: you can revert manually
01:58:42tamacrackerhow so?

01:58:53tamacrackernice
01:59:14tamacrackerreal quick question before i go back to windows
01:59:20Malakaithat's all the bootloader is really going to do. Check for a .ORIG file, and replace the non-ORIG file with that data.
01:59:31LloreanI swear the Sansa boots faster Rockbox BL -> Retail, than it did straight retail.
01:59:34tamacrackerwhen i open up windows media player
01:59:49tamacrackerand click on "sync" tab
01:59:51dan_aLlorean: Probably - it doesn't need to decrypt the firmware
02:00
02:00:05LloreanAh, that'd do it.
02:00:22LloreanThat kinda makes having the RB bootloader worth it even if I weren't all eager waiting for audio.
02:00:36LloreanWell, it would make it worth it if I could stand the retail firmware for more than about 5 minutes

02:01:19Malakaitamacracker: boot up WMP11, then connect your GB. WMP should detect it and put it into MTP mode. If it doesn't, go into the GB software and tell it you want to use USB in WMP mode.
02:01:35tamacrackerright?
02:01:43tamacrackerthen what? open the GB drive?
02:01:58Malakaitamacracker: once in MTP mode (as opposed to it just being a big USB harddrive) you can go to the Control Panel and click on Audio device or Digital Audio device... something, find your plaer, and 'browse' it
02:02:00tamacrackeror does windows media player already have a converter? or ripper?
02:02:05Mikachugreat, another meaning of GB, just what we need :)
02:02:16Malakaiyou'll get an exploer window of files, which if you drag to your harddrive will be converted back to .mp3

02:03:20FebsGreat. As if the user list weren't cluttered enough these days, now we have some ass looking for hosting for pirated music and cross-posting to multiple lists.
02:03:25Malakaii think context should be pretty easy to determine whcih someone is talking about.

02:03:35Lloreantoo
02:03:40Malakaii.e, I have 60GB of space on my GB
02:03:52Malakaiif you can't parse that, you need to remove yourself from your gene pool.

02:05:57LloreanThat's not an excuse not to do it.
02:06:07Malakaibut if you want to try and convert everyone that joins the channel to use GBT instead of GB, obviously noone will stop you.
02:06:14Mouser_XI think I'll use GBC (Gameboy Color), GBT (Gigabeat Toshiba) and GB (Gigabyte).
02:06:14ruisuSo.. how hard is it to make a plugin?
02:06:14Malakaibut there's a year worth of people reading IRC logs using GB
02:06:23LloreanMalakai: Honestly, I think we need a common abbreviations wiki page for a few things.
02:06:43Mouser_XLlorean: That sounds like a good idea.
02:06:51LloreanEspecially confusion relating to 4G vs 4Gb when discussion iPods.
02:07:03MalakaiI think we've spent too much time on it already, to be honest. i'm going to go back to writign my first plugin.
02:07:19LloreanMalakai: I don't see what you have against the idea of being explicit.
02:07:36LloreanFor example, people coming in here and simple referring to the "S Series" as if that were a global term.
02:08:02LloreanWhile yes, the most likely S Series is the Gigabeat one, but if people aren't aware of the Gigabeat, they'll have no basis on which to make that leap.
02:08:31 Quit muesli__ ("ich will Kühe!!!")
02:08:50LloreanSame falls true to GB. If they don't know about the Gigabeat, they're going to be more confused with an abbreviation they already have a meaning for than if simply handed an abbreviation they aren't familiar with.
02:09:28*Mouser_X is most familiar with it to mean Gameboy...

02:51:05linuxstbYes.

02:55:23Mikachu:)
02:55:23linuxstbBut there's a bug with the new ipodpatcher (or the bootloader) on some ipods meaning the original firmware doesn't start.
02:55:31flipperlol
02:55:34flipperahhh i c
02:55:52flipperI'm relieved it's not a paperweight !

02:57:47 Part flipper
02:58:11linuxstbMikachu: It wouldn't be a problem if the bootloader worked and loaded the original firmware...
02:58:57Mikachui think the apple instructions for resetting the ipod specifically say to turn hold on and off
02:59:03Lloreanlinuxstb: Is it 4G mono only, or do Photos do it too?
02:59:09LloreanMikachu: They do.
03:00
03:00:27Lloreanlinuxstb: Would having someone -a a bootloader and then -d be likely to reveal whether it's ipodpatcher or the bootloader that's the problem?
03:01:43linuxstbLlorean: Someone trying an old bootloader with the new ipodpatcher could be useful, but I have a feeling someone has (unsuccessfully) tried that.
03:02:52LloreanNow I just need to find someone with an acceptable iPod
03:03:03linuxstbThe first thing I want to do is compare a 4g firmware partition created by the new ipodpatcher and one created by one with the old ipod_fw method.

03:50:04combrainsLlorean, in reading your discusson about noobs asking dumb questions on the forums, why not include a link to the RB manual on the daily and CVS download pages
03:50:08LloreanI use Rockbox_Default with the peakmeters stripped, and a black and white picture of Thomas Edison underneath it instead.
03:50:18Lloreancombrains: There is one.
03:50:31Lloreancombrains: That menu bar on the left side is there on *every* page except the flyspray tracker.
03:50:35SoapTesla is a better theme than Edison.
03:50:41LloreanSoap: Yeah, but I don't have a cool picture of Tesla.
03:50:47LloreanPlus, Tesla did radio didn't he?
03:50:58LloreanI thought Edison was still the "recording" guy, despite all the controversy.

03:52:40combrainswhy not put the link to the download for the manual on the same page as RB itself?

03:53:28Lloreancombrains: I'm sure when there's a release, the manual will be included in the download archive.
03:53:36rockboxer105d47- thanks that looks really cool
03:53:40LloreanRight now there are daily builds of the draft manual, and frequent builds of the incomplete firmware.
03:54:59combrainsI don't think RB will ever be complete in the sense of the word

03:55:37Lloreancombrains: Yes, but release version do happen on rare occasions.
03:56:13Lloreancombrains: I don't see how putting it on the same page is going to make it more likely to be downloaded. If they don't look for it at all, they won't look.

04:32:36webguest02this is what i have typed in my adress bar F:\GBSYSTEM\FWIMG and there is nothing in there at all
04:32:49LloreanDraX: Addint multiple methods of doing it bloats the core, if there's on general method that will work for all of them.
04:33:01webguest02is the FWIMG folder supposed to be empty?
04:33:01LloreanPlus, this method means that you don't need to have multiple copies of the art, one per file.

04:33:40DraXLlorean: y'all should take a look at http://wiki.xmms2.xmms.se/index.php/XDG_coverart_sharing
04:33:49DraXLlorean: you could implement one img per album that way
04:34:11LloreanDraX: You should direct the person who wrote the patch to it. It's not part of CVS yet, and wasn't made by a core developer.
04:34:40LloreanDraX: But how is that better than the current method, and does it address all the concerns I listed?
04:35:32d47webguest02: view>folder options, i beleive, im not sure as i use linux
04:35:33DraXLlorean: it addresses extractability in some ways
04:35:37LloreanNot to mention Fat32 isn't really good about symbolic links.
04:35:44LloreanDraX: That doesn't answer my question...
04:35:53DraXLlorean: no it doesn't address all the issues you gave
04:35:56DraXLlorean: it addresses a few
04:36:04DraXLlorean: but it's a working draft
04:36:42LloreanSo, basically, we should give up a system that works for one that doesn't and requires additional overhead (never good on a portable device)?
04:36:58LloreanI'm not trying to sound overly critical, but I'm missing the argument for this feature entirely.
04:37:12linuxstbDraX: The main reason for .bmp files is efficiency. Remember we're dealing with hardware with limited capabilities, and we want to do everything possible to maximise battery life.
04:37:21LloreanRockbox, being a player for embedded devices, needs a system for cover art that requires a minimum of code to use.
04:37:37Llorean.bmp files don't require decompressing, and can be used globally with any supported audio format.
04:37:51linuxstbDecoding a 500x500 jpeg image and then resizing down to the typical 75x75 isn't a good use of CPU time...
04:40:07LloreanI kinda like how the current system goes from song-specific to album-specific to (I think) folder-specific in the case of missing art.

04:42:07Lloreanlinuxstb: Is there a default plugin thread, or if they need their own thread do they have to create their own?
04:42:26linuxstbplugins run in the main thread.
04:42:45linuxstbSo whilst they're running, they _are_ the main thread.
04:42:48LloreanAh
04:43:23LloreanAnd due to the nature of the gameboy emulator (does its own rendering, etc) I doubt there's any way multicore could really help performance for it, then?
04:43:33 Quit fasmaie ("Hey! Where'd my controlling terminal go?")
04:43:54linuxstbI'm sure it could help. It's emulating hardware, so some hardware could be emulated on the COP.
04:44:11linuxstbe.g. video rendering.
04:44:32LloreanOr perhaps move the main CPU emulation on its own to the COP?
04:44:41LloreanI assume that's where the most time is spent, like the codec thread.
04:45:04linuxstbYou would probably be surprised.
04:45:51LloreanApparently I would be.
04:46:12linuxstbI remember when optimising pacbox, the CPU emulation wasn't worth looking at. I got major improvements just with the video rendering.

04:46:56LloreanI had to take a toothpick to it.
04:47:32linuxstbAn easy test is simply to disable the display, and see how fast it goes.

05:40:07Mouser_XKCC: Markun is in France. I think he's recently moved.
05:40:42Mouser_Xhen3rz: The battery indicator isn't very accurate, due to innaccurate methods used to detect the amount of battery life left.

05:41:23hen3rzlol ok
05:41:38Mouser_XIt's a hardware limitation, according to my understanding (I could be wrong, I'm not a developer).
05:41:44hen3rzyeah it didnt, it played for 2 hours with 0 battery once

05:42:57Mouser_XRight now, you can expect at least 10 hours, most likely more, when you don't use the EQ.
05:43:18Mouser_XWhen using the EQ, it's quite a bit less...
05:43:21hen3rzwhy doesnt rockbox turn of the screen after a set time? all mine does is turn of the back light
05:43:23Mouser_XOr so I'm told.
05:43:30LloreanMouser_X: Like, 10% less, or like, 50% less?
05:43:49Mouser_XFrom what I was told, closer to 50%.
05:43:56Mouser_XI could be mistaken.
05:44:00Lloreanhen3rz: On many players the screen is perfectly readable without the backlight on, and that way there's no need to light up the backlight to read song title.
05:44:26Mouser_Xhen3rz: They're working on the backlight still.
05:44:28LloreanMouser_X: It really shouldn't be close to that much. That would mean the CPU on the Gigabeat is a rather ridiculous drain.
05:44:43Mouser_XLike I said, I could be mistaken.
05:44:57LloreanThe EQ is CPU instensive, but it shouldn't be that much.
05:44:59Mouser_XIt also might have been an older build that they were using, when they gave me that time.
05:45:24LloreanWell, I guess it depends, whether they're boosting the CPU, and what values between, etc.
05:45:47Mouser_XSomeone said that, with the EQ, they got about 5 hours of playtime.
05:46:00Mouser_XI can check the logs, it was one of the first questions I asked.
05:47:21LloreanWell, as I said, it depends on a lot of things.
05:47:36Mouser_XI have no doubt it does.
05:47:42rkostynut run crossfade, eq, backlight 5s, and i got 13 hours out of my yearold F10, normal under Toshiba was 12 hours, so its the same if not slightly better as far as battery life
05:48:40LloreanWhat we need is a http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/GigabeatRuntime to go alongside http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IpodRuntime

05:59:23lavidI thought that the bootloader was decrypted... wasn't that what the beginning of the forum thread was all about?
05:59:38LloreanDecrypted doesn't mean it's been reverse engineered.
05:59:50LloreanIt just means we've stripped the encryption from the file.
05:59:58lavidyeah, decrypted and then commented
06:00
06:00:42LloreanI don't recall it being commented.
06:01:32lavidwell, how the heck does one reverse engineer this stuff?
06:01:42LloreanThe decryption was primarily so that we could load it ourselves for dual boot, and so we could figure out how to encrypt our own images for their flash bootloader to load.

06:28:56LloreanI'm not sure if it's become more complex, or if it was just disabled for some testing purpose, but I expect it to show up within say, 3 major updates of mpegplayer.
06:29:08LloreanAgain though, I'm just making up these predictions as I go along.

06:30:10LloreanI really don't have any choice but to take things literally in most cases, because if I guess in favour of implied meaning and I'm wrong, I get a "Why didn't you just read what I said". :) At least when I go with what the words mean, I have solid ground beneath me.
06:30:58hen3rzso deoes this mean that rebuffering doesnt work for any port of rock box or just the gigabeat port?

06:46:09LloreanIt will only erase your iPod if you do it wrong, or have to restore.

07:03:08hen3rzdamn
07:03:10hen3rztry the latest
07:03:16hen3rzim playing it on mine now
07:03:46Mouser_XI'm using the iPod simulator (I wanted to get an idea of what the Winamp Classic styled WPS looked like, and how it functioned).
07:03:58Mouser_XI think you misunderstand what the simulator is.
07:04:05Mouser_XI'm running Rockbox on my PC.
07:04:09hen3rzthe windows thing
07:04:11hen3rzyeah
07:04:28Mouser_XWell, I don't know of any versions more recent than the one I got.
07:04:39hen3rzi see
07:04:55LloreanIt's very possible rasher stripped the plugins so the download was smaller, or something
07:04:57d47have u used the gameboy plugin xD i got pokemon rofl
07:05:06Mouser_XAh, it's working now...
07:05:13hen3rzWAT
07:05:16Mouser_XIt didn't load the plugins last time I tried it.
07:05:21hen3rzd47 does that work for gigabeat?
07:05:31d47yes its on my gigabeat
07:05:39hen3rzwats it called?
07:05:54d47just download the .rom file and open it like a song
07:06:12Mouser_XI'll have to try that...
07:06:17d47the plugin is in the cvs, so if u use the cvs you should have it
07:06:42d47its great =) im up to the ss anne

07:15:44LloreanOh, so you screwed up an install?

07:18:47LloreanWell, I can't really help you further, and download.rockbox.org doesn't seem to be responding so I can't point you at an older version of ipodpatcher without the safety check
07:21:17Mouser_XDoes Rockboy have sound? If it does, the simulator doesn't seem to be outputting it (I'm getting complete silence).

07:23:19Mouser_XIt's nice to know that there's GBC code in Rockbox. I say this, becausee it might mean that GBS files can be supported (That's GB/C music rips, like NSFs).
07:23:52webguest01is there a way to force write the boot partition.bin ?
07:25:00scorcheNSFs are supported

07:25:45OverandI'm actually running that version, one of the guys here put it up, but I can't remember his nick
07:25:46LloreanOverand: That would wipe the contents of his iPod. Using ipodpatcher is much less destructive
07:26:20Lloreanwebguest01: You can use an older iPodpatcher. I still want to know what the last line was before your iPod stopped working.
07:27:08Mouser_Xscorche: I know NSFs are supported. HCS wrote the patch for it.
07:27:31webguest01I accidentally did ipodpatcher 1 -w bootloader.bin
07:28:06*Mouser_X knows HCS from "elsewhere."
07:28:24Lloreanwebguest01: The current install instructions don't even include a file named bootloader.bin (or anything .bin) on a -w line. In fact they don't include a -w.
07:28:50LloreanBut you'll need to use an older version of ipodpatcher to -w a bootpartition.bin back now that you've messed i up
07:28:51Lloreanit up

08:03:00Mouser_XWe're all gone.
08:03:00d47_i just built and installed the cvs, and the button lights are working great
08:03:02LloreanCan't you just tell me with a short sentence such as "X works on iPod but not on Gigabeat?"
08:03:13LloreanKCC: Yes, because the Gigabeat has a different sized screen, and nobody's adapted them yet.
08:03:25KCCahh I see
08:03:31LloreanThey should all work fine for it from a software perspective, but they still need to know which buttons should do what, and how big the screen is.
08:04:00KCCcouldnt you just port the information for screen size directly from the 5g ipod code?
08:04:11LloreanFeel free to do it.
08:04:25LloreanBut you'll notice one screen is 4:3 and the other is 3:4, so you need to rotate the rendering.
08:04:32gotthardtKCC is the ipod 320x240 or 240x320?
08:04:40Lloreangotthardt: The iPod is 320x240.
08:05:16KCCohh my coding skills are limited at best... im afraid all I can do is highschool level VB coding
08:05:18KCCpretty sad
08:05:19LloreanKCC: Plus, someone has to actually go and do it. I notice you're not writing new keymaps, and most of the core developers are busy trying to get the bootloader working better, and everything more stable.
08:05:52LloreanKeymaps are pretty easy to do, actually. Look at a working plugin, and just copy that chunk into a nonworking one, and edit it to be similar to a working chunk for that plugin.
08:05:57KCCand I appreciate that 100%
08:06:10LloreanThe 4:3 to 3:4 conversion is more difficult
08:06:30KCCI can imagine
08:06:49LloreanThough for many of the plugins the image could just use the 220x176 of the iPod Photo if people didn't mind a non full screen.

08:09:13d47_you can see what plugins are supported on the plugins page in the wiki
08:09:32d47_so you installed rockbox on your player?
08:09:37KCChttp://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/PluginIndex
08:09:43KCCthats for you T7P
08:09:56d47_id start with finding a theme you like ^^ then get used to the settings and controls
08:10:03LloreanT7P: You might also be interested in a little something we like to call "The Manual"
08:10:15d47_omg lol
08:10:18T7PYeah, I've been looking through the manual
08:10:45T7PBelieve it or not, I can't read an entire manual in less than 24 hours, but thanks for having that kind of faith in me
08:11:28d47_=) amusing
08:11:36LloreanIt's 111 pages, if you can't read that in 24 hours, I hope English isn't your native language.
08:11:49Llorean5 pages an hour is a bit on the slow side.
08:12:04Llorean:-P
08:12:31LloreanAnyway, the main point was that it'll answer many of your questions, and should be where you search when you come up with things to ask.

08:13:28midkayd47_: what's your wiki name?
08:13:32d47_well theres no tick for the doom plugin under the gigabeat heading
08:13:47gotthardtThe plugin page is out of date for the Gigabeat - how do I update it (I have edit access, but edit doesnt get me to the arrows)
08:13:58DogBoyis there a way to boot into apple firmware after installing rockbox
08:14:08amiconngoffa: YOu need to edit the PluginDoom page
08:14:24amiconnThe table in the plugin page is built dynamically from that
08:14:27midkaygotthardt: each plugin page needs to be updated..
08:14:32gotthardtok
08:14:37gotthardtill take a look
08:15:15amiconnIt might also be that the plugin page just needs a refresh (it used not to, but some wiki update introduced caching)
08:15:46goffaeh?
08:15:57goffaah... you probably meant gotthardt
08:16:07gotthardtyes
08:16:11goffaso.. where's the menu for led?
08:16:22gotthardthey go to info and then debug
08:16:30gotthardtno official settings yet
08:16:44d47_yeh i got the leds on btw, there working great, thx
08:16:50gotthardtyw
08:17:14gotthardtdid you see the change for all leds or just the menu/power
08:17:34gotthardti forgot to state in the cvs log
08:17:39amiconngoffa: sorry
08:18:51goffanp
08:19:14d47_yeh all leds are lit, if thats what u mean
08:19:27goffastill not seeing those led settings... wondering if i got my updated build on there
08:19:40d47_have you found the info menu?
08:19:49gotthardtand can change to just the menu/power
08:20:15goffainfo menu is at the bottom of the main menu
08:20:21gotthardtyes
08:20:32gotthardtthen debug inside of that one
08:20:39goffayeah.. went in there
08:20:47gotthardtbutton light settings
08:20:50goffathat's why i'm wondering
08:20:58goffayeah... must not have the new build on
08:21:29goffagigabeat is touchy if you don't unmount before unplugging
08:22:06KCCthats a life truth right there
08:22:07goffayeah... that was the prob
08:22:13KCCnot only with gigabeats, but with the opposite sex
08:22:59d47_...
08:23:23KCCno eh
08:23:25KCCI tried
08:23:30 Part Llorean
08:24:05d47_ive found a small problem, ive noticed with all my themes that there is a small (1 px) indent where the progress bar is, has this been noted?
08:24:09goffaflicker mode is a nice touch
08:24:50goffad47_: yes

08:26:33scorchedo you knwo if there is a way to get a traditional line out on a v1?
08:26:41mkis5hey im trying to install the rockbox on my 5g ipod i believe i need the ipodpatcher file but i can't download it from the site
08:27:12d47_oh is it down?
08:27:18*goffa wanders off to listen to his gigabeat/sleep
08:27:37mkis5yes

08:28:47gotthardtcan you see why i wanted you to wait?
08:28:55 Quit Galois ("Leaving")
08:28:56scorchei know it doesnt, but i was looking to possibly build a dedicated one...but i guess the headphone will do
08:29:02RedZZRone extra suggestion - have the buttons Fade with the backlight
08:29:30gotthardtthat can be done - but i dont want to make that many i2c calls in an interrupt
08:29:38gotthardtit would have to be 3 per int
08:30:01gotthardtfor A, B and C led pairs
08:30:11mkis5so is there anyway i can get the ipodpatcher file being that the file is down on the site?
08:30:18RedZZRtrue, could you lower the buttons once the fade was complete
08:30:24d47_we'll ill just smile and nod gottardt
08:30:31gotthardtthat can be done -
08:30:57gotthardtRedZZR knows what i am talking about... hes a coder
08:31:02RedZZRso the final result would be faded or off as per the LCD

08:31:29gotthardtyes - it could watch for the change and then match it
08:31:33RedZZRonly been coding for 20+ Years... :(
08:31:46d47_heh im not even that old rofl
08:31:52gotthardtheh - im long in the tooth too
08:32:28RedZZRThe Old Guard of programming... :)
08:32:46amiconnI guess I need to remove the CategoryPlugin line on the individual plugin pages
08:32:58amiconngotthardt: i2c in an isr is nasty...
08:33:06mkis5?
08:33:20gotthardtyes - i know - but its a fast one and doesnt block
08:33:22amiconn(though on the H300 and X5 we need to do that)
08:33:22mkis5dag no ideas on how i could find this file?
08:33:36RedZZRI've get the dock buttons workings - simple read of the GPFDAT (but the bits are inverted)
08:33:36gotthardtall other i2c access to same place are in same thread and are serialized
08:34:04 Join Galois [0] (i=djao@efnet-math.org)
08:34:26RedZZRi've mapped them to Sync = SELECT and Rip = BUTTON_A
08:34:35gotthardtcool
08:35:19RedZZRif you remap the POWER button to A in the keymap it make browsing whilst docked and playing much easier
08:35:59scorcheamiconn: but that would still go through the headphone amp, which would defeat the purpose of a "line-out" correct?
08:36:03gotthardtim not to familiare with keymaping, but can there be a 'docked' keymap?
08:36:34gotthardtand can we sense that we are docked?
08:36:36RedZZRnot at the moment I don't think, also not sure if we can detect docked or powered
08:36:49RedZZRor tell the diff anyway
08:38:17RedZZRI noticed on the block diagram that there is a 2kbit I2c EEPROM on the dock
08:39:10gotthardtyes - what shall we do with that - is that info for the USB hub?
08:39:13RedZZRI could be a way of telling if docked and also restore the prev playlist and track etc... maybe..
08:39:33RedZZRI think the USB one has another 4Kbit one.. as well
08:40:04RedZZRthere seems to be an extra 2kbit one sat on its own just on the I2c
08:40:27RedZZRnot sure how we find the address of it
08:40:44gotthardthmm only a few addresss for i2c eeprom devices
08:40:50amiconngotthardt: Keymaps can be changed dynamically (at least for core features which use the action code)
08:41:19gotthardtamiconn: thanks! that would be cool - remap when docked
08:41:19amiconnThat was one goal of the action code - the irivers can use 3 types of remote controls with different button layouts

08:46:14amiconnAh ok
08:46:26gotthardtso - yes i did open for edit - sorry
08:46:59Mouser_XHeh. If you zoom out on the plasma one far enough, it actually looks pretty neat.
08:47:02gotthardtbut just to get way to indicate Gigabeat was done - then i have been copying to other plugins that are done
08:47:08Mouser_XI'm at least 100 times out...
08:48:55Mouser_XIf you zoom out far enough, it eventually "loops" back...
08:49:11d47_oh wow ur right, it looks good
08:49:18RedZZRgotthardt: could we also have an option for the led's to flicker only on disc reads - I like that but would prefer they were the same brightness as the backlight when using the controls
08:49:53gotthardtsure - so you dont want flicker on touchpad?
08:50:17RedZZRI don't personally like that, but like it when the LCD is off and the disc is accessed
08:50:32gotthardtah - can do
08:50:42gotthardtgood feedback - thanks

08:52:27d47_heh, i got the plasma plugin to loop back, its a much cooler plugin then my first impressions
08:52:47Mouser_XIt took about 267 zoom outs to loop back.
08:52:57d47_about
08:52:59Mouser_XOr, in that area, at least.
08:53:19Mouser_XI tried to count, but I know I missed a few...
08:53:48d47_and half way there is a bit where the whole screen is a single alternating colour
08:54:55Mouser_XThe reason I tried it at all, is that I have pretty neat plasma screensaver. Seeing the plugin, I thought it'd be pretty neat.
08:55:21Mouser_XIt wasn't as neat as the screensaver, but I thought zooming in would change that. I couldn't zoom in, so I zoomed out...
08:55:24Mouser_XReally far...
08:55:38d47_heh
08:55:40Mouser_XEventually, it actually looks pretty neat.
08:56:10scorcheamiconn: did you see my last question?
08:56:56Mouser_X127 is where I got the single alternating color.

09:49:39d47_my 2 themes just got uploaded ^^ http://rockbox-themes.org/index.php?res=240x320x16
09:49:52d47_mine are "lain" and "yellowprint"
09:50:01*Mouser_X looks.
09:50:17Mouser_XI'm attempting to make a Winamp styled WPS...
09:50:47d47_kewl
09:51:12d47_the wps code is quite easy
09:51:26Mouser_XI'm having difficulty figuring out how to display all the information... Artist, album, and song title...
09:51:33Mouser_XWinamp scrolls this stuff.
09:51:46Mouser_XI don't know if I can scroll it in WPS.
09:51:55webguest64hmm, you guys would do yourselves a big favour by creating links, in big red letters to the iPOD FAQ's and how to's, as they make up 80% of the pod questions asked in here

09:52:26Mouser_XThanks.

09:56:08d47_thats all well and good to try and figure it out on yourself but to go around asking anoying questions
09:56:13Mouser_XI wonder if I should modify my Winamp WPS to allow for album art?
09:56:36Mouser_XI could fit it into the window where the anylizer would usually go.
09:56:38d47_mmm, that requires people to use a patch along with your theme though
09:57:01Mouser_XI'll leave it off for now, then.
09:57:12Mouser_XMain thing to do is get it working first.
09:57:29Mouser_XOnce it's working, I can start adding all the other happy fun fancy stuff.
09:57:34d47_you can comment it out and write a note in the description to uncomment it if ever it gets supported in the mainstream builds i spose
09:57:54Mouser_XWell, graphically, it wouldn't fit anyway.
09:58:03d47_=/ awell
09:58:16Mouser_XI could get it to fit if I stretched it.
09:58:20Mouser_XIt's not a big deal.
09:58:48Mouser_XThough, if I want to stick as close to original Winamp as I can, then I won't be doing the stretching, unless I add album art support.
09:59:04Mouser_XSo, I'll leave it as it stands, for now.
09:59:09hen3rzin the manual it refers to an "edit key" what is that?

10:08:12hen3rzthank you
10:08:23d47_np
10:08:24scorchethere are easier ways as well (imo at least
10:08:42d47_like what?
10:09:19scorched47_: like the way accessed via the context menu
10:09:49scorcheLlorean: like one such example, i saw on thedailywtf... //prepare for return! LF return;
10:10:14Lloreanscorche: I liked that one.
10:10:34d47_lol
10:14:45d47_lol ive never see thedailywtf before, im reading it now
10:15:17Lloreanscorche: Okay, I've now had like, 3 people install the old bootloader on their 5.5G. Apparently bright red text really isn't clear enough.
10:16:06scorchesuggestion?
10:16:13amiconnTry blinking red text on white background? ;)
10:16:28d47_marqee's and neon light
10:17:22LloreanI'm thinking of removing the instructions entirely from the old IpodInstallation page, and just leaving the files.
10:17:45scorchei dont see a purpose for the old one, personally
10:18:09LloreanThe old ipodpatcher.exe is necessary at the moment if you mess up your bootpartition too badly, and the new one can't recognize that it's an ipod.
10:18:18scorcheah
10:18:45scorchei say we move the new one out of beta, and move the old one to a depreciated page
10:18:54scorcheand change the titles respectively
10:20:06LloreanIpodInstallationOld?
10:20:18scorchesomething like that
10:20:18LloreanHonestly, I think we can actually just get rid of it entirely
10:20:22LloreanIt'll still be visible in the revisions
10:20:31LloreanAnd ipodpatcher is hosted at downloads.rockbox.org still.
10:20:56scorchei would rather direct someone to a page than tell them how to view older revisions
10:21:12Lloreanscorche: When do you need to direct someone to the old install process?
10:21:38scorcheoh...i see what you mean
10:21:42Lloreanscorche: All you should need to direct them to is http://download.rockbox.org/bootloader/ipod/ipodpatcher.exe
10:21:45scorchesounds fine then
10:21:47LloreanOr one of the .zips

10:24:31scorcheit can wait for Bagder to wake up
10:24:32amiconnLlorean: In order to remove a page, move it to the "Trash" web
10:24:53Lloreanamiconn: It doesn't allow me to move pages.
10:24:55amiconnComplete removal isn't possbile because of versioning
10:24:58jbahey gang
10:25:31LloreanIt told me that moving is not allowed.
10:26:42jbahey gang, is there a planet.rocklbox or something similar?

10:38:04Mouser_Xah.
10:38:28Mouser_XI've just been noticing it on the simulators.
10:38:31jba_why waste battery figuring out the current bitrate?
10:38:40Mouser_XTrue enough.
10:39:10d47_well if ya gonna be like that... why wat battery listning to music
10:39:20Mouser_X:P

10:39:54d47_battery is much beter spent playing pokemon on the rockboy xD
10:40:00jba_that's two tel-tale signs, hmm
10:40:04Mouser_XI think it's interesting to see the battery life in the simulators... It fluctuates fairly wildly.
10:40:33scorched47_: then why even get a DAP?

12:43:27linuxstbscorche, Llorean: I would say the IpodInstallationBeta is still beta - it's known to have problems on (I think) all the greyscale ipods.

12:47:06Angryhi all^^
12:47:13amiconnImho the only ipod target where dualboot makes sense is the ipod video - if you want video via the broadcom chip
12:47:43dan_aAt the moment it makes sense on the 3G too.

12:51:36amiconnwhy?
12:51:36linuxstbamiconn: Lots of people seem to use Rockbox on the ipod only for playing games, and use the Apple firmware for music...
12:52:03linuxstbThe emergency disk mode is far slower than the disk mode in the main firmware on the Nano.

12:54:29linuxstbIt may be on (at least some) videos as well, but it's mainly the Nano that everyone reports the slow speeds.
12:54:30amiconnwebguest71: True, but then I don't get any skipping in rockbox on my ipod
12:54:45webguest71do you use the eq ?

14:43:25grillefrom other people who had this problem i know that the normal firmware kept on working, or at least booting
14:43:37bluebrotherI had my player not booting once. I removed all files from the device and reinstalled Rockbox. Then it worked again

16:00:16Lars_GBefore I keep on stumbling the net for info, is there any tool that will easily let me convert fonts to a bdf format the convbdf tool can use?

16:16:27bluebrotherhmm. Can someone explain what this Rocker guy wants from me? http://www.rockbox.org/mail/archive/rockbox-archive-2007-01/0268.shtml
16:17:08bluebrotherI really don't understand this
16:17:42Soapare you dominik or grant?
16:18:53bluebrotherDominik (without ck)
16:19:59SoapIn my humble opinion rocker just wants to argue.
16:20:45SoapThat is the second mailing list thread which needs a "better man" to step up and stop replying and let it die.
16:21:00bluebrotherlooks like, but I completely don't understand what he wants to argue about.
16:21:16bluebrotherso I'm not in the right position to keep arguing ;-)
16:22:07bluebrotherand, to be honest, as he seems to be incapable to argue in an understandable way I consider my time too valueable for this.
16:22:16bluebrotherBut I'm still curious what he means ...
16:22:26Lars_GI'm unsure even he knows
16:22:39bluebrothercan't remember of my memory failing (maybe because it's failing? :-P
16:23:12bluebrotherI get more and more the intention he is simply some kind of trolling around.
16:24:28FebsI was just about to reply to that thread saying "Rocker, you've managed to misinterpret just about everything Dominik has written in this thread."
16:25:03Lars_GNah let the thread die
16:25:25Lars_GBtw i love how he took "stop full quoting" as "don't use quote marks" lol
16:25:48bluebrotherat least I'll let it die now. He seems to be resistant against understanding. Somehow.
16:26:04bluebrotherwe should really post the netiquette monthly
16:26:17FebsIt won't matter.
16:26:21bluebrotheror maybe the complete RFC memo? *g*

16:30:05Lars_GBtw bluebrother fontforge is great thanks for the recommendation
16:30:13bluebrothersomeone would need to moderate every post. I guess that's the only way to make it work.
16:30:50Lars_GWell it could be coded. the first month of a person's posts (not subscription but posts) would be moderated. Aftewards he'd be demoderated if considered fit
16:31:00FebsI'm very close to unsubscribing, which is a shame, because I like to help people, but it's just too frustrating to wade through all of the garbage.

16:33:52FebsSoap, unless we made that a moderated list, I think we would end up in the same place.
16:34:08bluebrothernice idea. There were several occasions I was wondering if the poster was blind or not.
16:34:20Soapyou don't need to go full moderated.
16:34:35bluebrotheron rockbox-blind (or what it may get called) you could at least assume that.
16:34:47SoapOne violation = warning. Two violations = remove posting priv for a week. Three violations = off the list.
16:34:52FebsI see your point.
16:35:04FebsArrrggh. Sorry. No pun intended.
16:36:12SoapOr a similar "moderation" system could be used in the current list.
16:36:46FebsTrue. But is there anyone who wants the job of being the moderator?
16:36:58SoapGive some trusted people the power to declare "thread dead" - anyone who adds to the thread after X hours of grace loses posting privledges for a month.
16:37:32SoapA lot less time consuming than someone needing to approve every mail which enters the list before it is bounced out to the subscribers.

18:50:45linuxstbTry manually boosting the CPU in the debug screen, and see if you still get pauses.

18:51:44linuxstbdan_a: Yes.
18:51:44Nimdaehow do i manually boost?
18:52:12linuxstbMain menu -> info -> debug -> cpu frequency, and then (I think) scroll backwards to increase the boost count...
18:53:31linuxstbAlso, changing the list scrolling code to perform acceleration by skipping lines (and hence doing less display updates) would help.
18:53:38Nimdaeit was smooth at first, for about 3 seconds, then went back to the same behavior...boost count is still up so it's staying boosted

19:51:00NimdaeSoap: with the cop patch, that should be different
19:51:29Nimdaeheh, i'm gonna use a full length movie broken down into small 20 mb chunks to work around the rebuffer bug
19:51:34Soapno, 320x240 performance will still be lower, thus lower granularity.
19:52:30Soapand if you use the wiki encodes note they are VBR, so unless you measure FPS at the same place each test you will not have useful numbers.
19:52:53NimdaeSoap: well, anyway, i'm not testing the mpegplayer, i'm testing the cop patch
19:53:47Nimdaeand i'm not testing performance either, i'm testing stability
19:53:55SoapYou are using the mpeg player to test, thus you need to pay attention to the variables affecting mpegplayer performance, and account for those.
19:54:09Soapok, I thought you were doing performance, not stability.
19:54:29linuxstbNote that mpegplayer itself is unstable...
19:54:42Nimdaeactually, i'm using a variety of things for testing...i'll use some mp3s, oggs, mpgs, etc

22:26:36TerrorByteSup?
22:26:41linuxstbThe IpodInstallation pages still work for more targets than IpodInstallationBeta...
22:26:46TerrorByteSo, anything new for the iRiver H10?
22:26:50 Part tj2master
22:27:02Lars_GTo link to the license directly, I would have to link to a sourceforge-japan CVS file, I prefer to include the license in the file (as the license asks) and copy the text in the patch message
22:27:08Lloreanlinuxstb: I thought that the only one that couldn't boot Rockbox with the Beta was, maybe, the 3G?
22:27:08linuxstbi.e. dual-boot appears to be broken for the 1st/2nd gen mini and 4g greyscale.
22:27:33linuxstbI thought you read the forums? :) There are lots of complaints about that.
22:27:41TerrorByteNothing new?
22:27:48Lloreanlinuxstb: My concern is that the Old installation instructions don't boot Rockbox itself for the 5.5G which is a more widespread target than the 3G. I was weighing on "Which ones boot Rockbox" rather than 'Which ones boot Retail as well"
22:28:03Lars_Glinuxstb: What do you say, do I upload the font files in zip format, as a patch, or both
22:28:34LloreanThough I have seen more complaints about the grayscale targets not booting retail, I'm seeing a beginning trend of people not having 5.5G work because they used the old bootloader.
22:29:33LloreanI'll go add a note about the 5.5G instead, that might help
22:29:36Lars_G?
22:29:50linuxstbBut are they all following our instructions, or third-party install instructions and/or installers?
22:30:36Lloreanlinuxstb: At least one of them was just following the instructions on the ipodinstallation page. Your latest ipodpatcher there works for 5.5G, but I guess the bootloader-video.bin itself doesn't.
22:30:59Lars_Gyou insinuate there's people other than (a few) programmers, able to follow directions?
22:31:04Lars_GI mean, there's people that read?
22:31:17LloreanLars_G: It doesn't count if they read the wrong thing, don't worry.
22:31:21linuxstbThe ipodpatcher there doesn't work IIRC... It just has much fewer safety checks.
22:31:21Lars_GSorry, Life has turned me into a cynic
22:31:46Lloreanlinuxstb: Well, that's what I meant by "works." You get bootloader text, blue background black text, and it hangs at "Loading Rockbox" or so.
22:31:46linuxstb(unless there's an unofficially patched version)
22:32:00Lars_Glinuxstb: What do you think about my question? specially considering there fonts are "binary" and thus ugly inside a .patch
22:32:04 Quit TerrorByte ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
22:32:18linuxstbLars_G: I think just uploading a .zip is fine.
22:32:30Lloreanlinuxstb: It got to Loading Rockbox... and then stopped, apparently
22:32:31Lars_GYeah, thanks
22:32:56LloreanThe saddest thing is that the guy was following the proper instructions, got confused by Vista's security features, got that worked out, and then when he went back, followed the old ones.
22:33:06LloreanHe may have even used the new iPodPatcher, now that I think of it.
22:33:14linuxstbThat Vista thing just seems insane...
22:33:25LloreanBut there have been at least 1 or 2 other people that ended up with old bootloaders on 5.5G somehow too.
22:34:03LloreanDeleting the ipod_fw for 5.5G from the installation page might cover everything.
22:34:27linuxstbOne problem is that we don't distinguish anywhere between 5g and 5.5g - because the new instructions are identical on both...
22:34:44linuxstbSo if people find the old instructions, they may not even know they have a 5.5g.
22:35:02LloreanIt'd be nice if people just read the manual.
22:35:19LloreanBut there's like, tutorials everywhere, or other sites just direct-linking to the IpodInstallation page, etc.

22:40:32LloreanDepending on the line-in levels (if it has one?)
22:41:19amiconnAfaiu, naming the mic 'internal mic' is for disambiguation purposes, and hence only necessary on targets which can handle both internal and external mics

22:53:32perldiverwhats wrong with equalizer?
22:53:41perldiverand continuos play?
22:54:08perldiverand start playing after turn on is in the options
22:56:15Lars_Glinuxstb: Should I include the license text on the ticket too?
22:56:50tamacrackerit's in the option
22:56:54tamacrackeryeah continuous play
22:56:56tamacrackeras in
22:57:00tamacrackeronce an album is over
22:57:04tamacrackerit should go onto the next album.
22:57:15perldiverthat option is in the settins as well
22:57:20tamacrackerwith mine... it just repeats the album
22:57:25tamacrackeroh cool
22:57:29perldiveryou might want to take a look in the manual
22:57:43perldiverand read about all the available options
22:57:51tamacrackerand the EQ... it's hard to explain, im not sayin it's bad... I just don't specifically know how to work the EQ for my system.

22:59:00tamacrackeryeah it's gonna have to be EQ presets... the treble some how boosts the bass
22:59:01tamacracker>.>
22:59:15perldiverthats not possible
22:59:38tamacrackeri dunno? but it did.
22:59:40perldiveri mean highly doubtful
22:59:53perldiver(everything is possible)
22:59:59tamacrackerit did the treble but also the bass
22:59:59Lars_GAny dev oppinion on including the license on the ticket iself?
23:00
23:00:36Lloreantamacracker: Do you mean the actual "treble" setting, or the high shelf in the EQ?
23:00:46tamacrackernope the treble :)
23:00:59Lloreantamacracker: As for your "not moving from folder to folder", make sure the option to follow folders is on, but also make sure that repeat is off.
23:01:00tamacrackerhold on
23:01:02tamacrackerill turn it on
23:01:08tamacrackerand tell you exactly what it is.
23:01:21tamacrackerthanks Llorean
23:01:43Lloreantamacracker: Treble and Bass both make use of hardware features, so if "Treble" also boosts Bass, it's because the hardware itself does that.
23:01:48perldivertamacracker id still suggest to start from reading the manual
23:02:37tamacrackeri will peridiver
