00:00:04 | DerPapst | maybe something has changed after implementing support for 5.5G 30GB ipod |
00:00:43 | linuxstb__ | What happens when you try to load Rockbox? |
00:02:27 | DerPapst | it just said: err: Open failed |
00:02:42 | linuxstb__ | Ah, then that's unrelated to my change. |
00:03:02 | linuxstb__ | All my change did was change what loader2 did after loading Rockbox into RAM. |
00:03:24 | DerPapst | oh. ok. |
00:03:43 | DerPapst | i'll do some tests tomorrow. currently i can't boot my pc because of energy fluctuations. |

00:13:05 | LinusN | i must say that scrolling in the file view is sluggish on my 5G |
00:14:02 | Lars_G | it is on my dad's 5G as well |
00:14:12 | Lars_G | not sluggish but the scroll wheel ratio is low |
00:14:45 | linuxstb | Slasheri is working on that. |
00:15:10 | linuxstb | I guess you're talking about your 80GB 5G though? :) |
00:15:36 | pixelma | heh... just wanted to ask something similar |
00:15:53 | Mikachu | the scroll wheen delta needs to be different on the various ipods because the wheels are different sizes |
00:16:19 | amiconn | I don't think the delta needs to be different |
00:16:31 | amiconn | The problem on the G5 is that the lcd is so slow |
00:16:34 | | Part Llorean |
00:16:51 | amiconn | ...and the wheel events are throttled in order not to queue up |
00:17:16 | amiconn | Otherwise there would be significant afterscroll |
00:17:58 | Lars_G | linuxstb: No, an older 5G not 80Gb |
00:18:19 | Lars_G | amiconn: Makes sense |
00:18:38 | Lars_G | at least they don't queue, that's aggravating |
00:19:21 | | Quit dpassen1 () |
00:19:35 | Mikachu | i think they should queue, but the file tree could peek ahead and see how many scrolls there are, and skip directly that many steps ahead |
00:19:40 | LinusN | linuxstb: nah, my 5.5G is not working yet :-) |
00:19:49 | Mikachu | or to formulate more correctly, would that be a good idea? |
00:20:55 | Lars_G | I dissagree |
00:21:28 | amiconn | Mikachu: Then all "clients" of the button code would need to peek ahead |
00:21:41 | Lars_G | since the normal user follows the screen movement and applies forward motion until the selector reaches the correct destination |
00:21:43 | linuxstb | I think the way the Apple firmware works is good - it increases the skip from 1 line, to 2, then 4, then 8 etc, depending on the speed. |
00:22:04 | Lars_G | normally people don't say "I need to scroll down 6 files, that's 23.4º on the scrollwheel" |
00:22:08 | amiconn | I'm not sure, maybe the wheel code could count the number of suppressed events, and when it sees an empty queue pass this number as a parameter to the event |
00:22:17 | Lars_G | linuxstb: good idea. |

00:24:05 | webguest98 | in .rockbox/doom? |
00:24:31 | Overand | I think it goes in /Games/doom actually |
00:24:38 | Overand | but I'm sure that's in the docs. |
00:24:42 | linuxstb | No, it's .rockbox.doom as of about 4 days ago. |

00:34:08 | scubacoles | webguest98: search for freedoom |
00:34:36 | LinusN | regarding the long buffering times on the 5g ipod, is it because the ata is slow, or because the ata driver gets too little cpu? |
00:34:38 | scubacoles | webguest98: and put the doom2.wad into .rockbox/doom |
00:36:56 | amiconn | LinusN: Both, I'd guess |
00:38:10 | amiconn | We don't know how to control parameters of the ata port. Then playing mp3 already takes a good deal of cpu power, and on the G5 graphics is also quite heavy |
00:38:17 | LinusN | the buffering is a lot faster when the music is paused |
00:38:35 | amiconn | Both because of the high resolution and the lcd updates |
00:39:34 | linuxstb | I'm sure an asm ATA read function could help a lot though. |
00:39:44 | amiconn | On my mini G2 I can play mp3 with all 5 eq bands enabled, and a peakmeter in the wps without skipping, but then buffering takes nearly forever |
00:39:52 | linuxstb | Or DMA - MrH has given us some info on that. |

00:46:36 | dan_a | LinusN: OK. I don't know enough theory to know where some things will help :) |
00:47:36 | amiconn | dan_a: Combining transfers on the memory side will help. Duffs device can't do that. Asm can, in case of arm using ldmia and stmia |
00:48:48 | amiconn | The unaligned case needs much bitshifting, but arm seems to be built around a shifter... |
00:49:50 | * | amiconn is still puzzled about the coldfire ata port not liking dma with auto-alignment enabled |
00:50:14 | amiconn | Without auto-alignment it works, but then it's slower than my asm loops |
00:50:38 | Mikachu | how long would it take one of you to actually write this asm ata code you've been talking about for a week now? :) |

02:16:13 | midgey | by removing that bit of code, the ships in spacerocks are drawn vertically instead of slanting at a 45 degree angle |
02:16:17 | barrywardell | that's quite old |
02:16:27 | barrywardell | but he has recently started posting again |
02:17:05 | barrywardell | midgey: yes, i figured that out eventually. i'm not sure what the preferred behaviour would be though... |
02:17:19 | pixelma | barrywardell: sorry if you're not the right one to talk to but I thought you could know the source... I've experienced that the backlight will switch of after about 1 second on really low battery. (not that I have backlight for long - have a modded Ondio for about 3 weeks but I heard others reporting it too). Is that intentional, or a bug? |
02:17:54 | pixelma | after an event that switches it on of course |

02:19:18 | pixelma | I mean most probably it's more visible to me because Ondio uses NiMH cells and runs till they are really empty |

04:32:08 | Llorean | I'm not really sure why there's a custom logo just for the gigabeat. |
04:32:21 | Llorean | It seems like it'd make more sense just to have the logos by screen size rather than individual target. |
04:33:23 | perldiver | Llorean make sense, yes |
04:33:45 | Llorean | Keeps the source archive from getting too big as the number of targets expand. |
04:34:34 | perldiver | but we have this idea of custom splash going on for gigabeat |
04:34:53 | perldiver | so people can create their own ones |
04:35:06 | perldiver | and the custom one is included in bootloader as an example |

04:38:31 | Llorean | The bootloader isn't really considered the same sort of part of Rockbox. |
04:38:53 | Llorean | On many targets it's stored in flash and doesn't even access the disk until Rockbox itself is loaded, sometimes useful for recovering bad filesystems. |
04:39:17 | perldiver | yes, i understand |
04:39:43 | perldiver | but do you think offering this option on targets where its possible is bad idea? |
04:39:49 | Llorean | Wouldn't it be more logical to make the customizable splash the one when Rockbox boots, rather than as part of the bootloader? |

04:40:36 | Llorean | I meant though that wouldn't it make more sense for Rockbox to load the .raw, and not the bootloader? |
04:40:55 | perldiver | it loads the .raw |
04:41:07 | Llorean | What 'it'? |
04:41:12 | Llorean | You've been saying the bootloader so far. |
04:41:13 | perldiver | the bootloader |
04:41:36 | Llorean | So, how does saying "it loads the raw" respond to "Wouldn't it make more sense for Rockbox to load the .raw, and not the bootloader?" |
04:41:55 | Llorean | I just don't see why it's a feature of the bootloader rather than the core. |
04:42:08 | perldiver | oh i see what you mean now |
04:42:28 | Llorean | If it were a part of the core, every target could have the feature, and at the same time you wouldn't be messing with the current bootloader paradigm. |
04:43:05 | perldiver | but i think it never became a core feature because its not possible on all targets? |
04:43:35 | Llorean | On what target would it be impossible for the core to load an image, other than the Archos Player (because it has a charcell display)? |
04:45:16 | perldiver | but is it possible to display an image before the bootloader displays its data on load? |
04:45:22 | Soap | Llorean: now that pijulius is back, should his 34 page thread be pruned, since much is outdated? |
04:45:43 | Llorean | Soap: If he wants it pruned, I will. |

04:48:44 | Llorean | But there's already the normal Rockbox splash upon boot. I just don't see why you feel the need to add any graphics into the bootloader as part of 'themeing' when there's the normal Rockbox splash that could be made themeable. |
04:49:20 | Llorean | It seems rather odd to add a themeable feature to just one target by way of the bootloader, when you could make a universal feature with the normal bootup splash, and leave the bootloaders as they are, text-only and very simple. |

05:15:08 | scubacoles | On the bootloader splash topic, it makes Rockbox look far more "professional" or finished if no boot text is visible. |
05:15:20 | *** | Saving seen data "./dancer.seen" |
05:15:55 | * | perldiver hides |
05:18:26 | Llorean | scubacoles: But that can wait for a release version in which something like a simple progress bar can be used. |
05:18:36 | Llorean | Something that can be done identically on all targets. |
05:18:50 | scubacoles | yeah, fair call.. |
05:18:56 | Llorean | That still doesn't in any way address the "Splash in the core vs bootloader" question. |
05:20:05 | scubacoles | Perhaps us giogabeat users are coming from a different perspective |
05:20:14 | | Quit dantheman (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)) |
05:21:11 | scubacoles | We have to boot with part of the Toshiba bootloader, then flick over to the Rockbox bootloader, going from Toshiba splash to boot text to rockbox splash to file browser (or WPS) |
05:21:39 | Llorean | scubacoles: Rockbox itself should be able to show a splash though. |
05:21:54 | Llorean | How long does the Gigabeat spend in the bootloader? |
05:21:58 | scubacoles | over the top of the bootloader text?? |
05:22:07 | scubacoles | 2 seconds |
05:22:12 | perldiver | Llorean 2-3 seconds |
05:22:28 | Llorean | scubacoles: Remember, I suggested that the bootloader text be removed for a final version. |
05:22:43 | Llorean | 2-3 seconds of a blank screen, or a progress bar, followed by a Rockbox splash shouldn't be too jarring, should it? |
05:22:59 | Llorean | On an entirely unrelated note, I believe I shall be joining the ranks of Gigabeat owners shortly. |
05:23:17 | Mouser_X | Oooh, |
05:23:29 | perldiver | Llorean thats great, i hope you will |
05:23:32 | Mouser_X | Indeed. |
05:23:41 | hcs | join us.... |
05:23:41 | Llorean | Well, it really depends on one final email coming back to me saying "Agreed, we have a deal" |
05:23:41 | Mouser_X | Heh |
05:24:22 | perldiver | progress bar followed by a splash sounds great but we have are "own" progress bar screen built into gigabeat |
05:24:31 | Llorean | But I still think the splash should be a part of the core. The bootloader shouldn't have any non-essential code in it except perhaps a very simple, elegant progress bar, so that it can be consistent across all targets. |

05:26:00 | perldiver | and i guess theres nothing can be done about it |
05:26:08 | scubacoles | perldriver is referring to the Toshiba part I think... |
05:26:16 | scubacoles | has its own progress bar |
05:26:16 | Llorean | Aye, I figured that. |
05:26:28 | Llorean | Well, the Rockbox bootloader could also just be a blank screen. |
05:26:48 | perldiver | i'm up for elegant progress bar across all targets |
05:26:48 | Llorean | My big concern is that the bootloader itself should be treated as something that should be minimal and as fast as possible. |
05:26:59 | perldiver | agreed |
05:27:23 | Llorean | The iPods show a splash on boot, but it's the first thing *after* the bootloader that you see. |
05:28:14 | Llorean | Especially considering that in the end, the ideal for nearly any target would be to get the bootloader itself into flash. I don't know if that's physically possible ever on the Toshibas though. |

05:32:06 | scubacoles | Llorean: congratulations, you wont regret it....unless you accidentally try the Toshiba firmware first!!!! Although then you'll understand why so many gigabeat owners have flooded this channel since Christmas :-) |
05:32:06 | Llorean | protonite: Coincidence. What kind of "completely died"? |

05:34:48 | protonite | i thought the battery had just blew up or something :o |

05:35:27 | protonite | hm, fair enough |
05:35:30 | Llorean | perldiver: Honestly, I'm just getting it because the price was cheap enough for a 40gb player, and it'll make it easier for me to provide support. |
05:36:11 | perldiver | h120 has alot to offer yeah |
05:36:36 | Llorean | Color screens 'n all that jazz, not really stuff I use terribly often. |
05:36:58 | Llorean | Though if the battery life beats the H120, and the sound quality is comparable it could replace it for everyday use. |

05:42:42 | webguest96 | thanks |
05:42:54 | Llorean | So it's from the SVN Builds link on the site? |
05:42:55 | webguest96 | im still new to rockbox |
05:43:20 | webguest96 | daily build |
05:43:28 | toffe | scubacoles , Llorean : the jtag is accessible on the gigabeat, it is part of my todo list :) |
05:43:42 | webguest96 | its a bit hard to find my music though on it |
05:43:57 | toffe | to try to connect to it and read (if possible an reflach) |
05:43:57 | Llorean | toffe: But is it flashable without the JTAG (once you've got a safe bootloader, can it be flashed by normal users?) |
05:44:01 | webguest96 | do i have to get rid of the itunes uploaded music first? |
05:44:14 | Llorean | webguest96: Have you read the manual yet? I suggest the portions on Database |
05:44:33 | protonite | is there a setting in rockbox thatll make the ipod buttons work as soon as you press them when its been active? not sure to describe what I mean but when Ive not used it for a while it ignores me pressing fastforward/pause etc until Ive played around with the scrollwheel a bit to activate it |
05:44:41 | protonite | s/active/inactive/ |
05:44:55 | Llorean | protonite: Turn off "First keypress enables backlight" |
05:44:56 | toffe | Llorean : I don't think you can flash it without the jtag |
05:45:23 | Llorean | toffe: So the Toshiba bootloader built in can never be upgraded in a firmware update? |
05:45:54 | webguest96 | can it play my videos? |
05:45:58 | protonite | cool, thanks |
05:46:04 | Llorean | webguest96: Rockbox does not support the same formats of video. |
05:46:13 | webguest96 | oh, k |
05:46:17 | Llorean | protonite: It may not help perfectly though. Some of it's just because of the slowness. |
05:46:26 | protonite | fair enough |
05:46:38 | protonite | it was a lot worse on the June 2006 build i was using |
05:46:40 | toffe | Llorean : I don't know enough to answer |
05:46:49 | protonite | the new one is far far better so thanks :o |

06:41:09 | Mouser_X | *sense |
06:41:24 | webguest36 | right |
06:41:42 | Llorean | webguest36: My point is, if you'd just read the bloody manual you wouldn't have had to ask in the first place, and I don't see how "I'm very tired" is an excuse since reading the manual is something you should've done in the first place, and doesn't require any of us to retype things yet again. |
06:43:09 | Llorean | Seriously, the manual was written for a reason and it's rather frustrating that when I asked if you'd read it, you attempted to dodge the subject. |
06:43:36 | webguest36 | i understand that the manual was made for that |
06:43:51 | webguest36 | and i did read the basic stuff |

06:44:43 | webguest36 | i find it to be faster |
06:44:49 | Llorean | Did the logic go something like "They already wrote it down for me, but I should make them type it again even though it's the very same people saying it?" |
06:45:24 | Llorean | So, the logic is "I want to make someone else work to save me time" then. |
06:45:39 | Llorean | That's what "Getting someone to tell it to me so it's faster for me" boils down to. |

06:53:16 | johnd0e | how can you dualboot with orig firmware? |
06:53:20 | johnd0e | ipodpatcher? |
06:53:43 | Mouser_X | No, start Rockbox, and while it's booting, turn on the HOLD button (is that right?) |
06:53:55 | Llorean | johnd0e: If you installed it properly, you just turn on the hold switch immediately after powering up |
06:53:56 | Mouser_X | (I know it's close to that) |
06:54:01 | johnd0e | Is that in the documentation anywhere? |
06:54:09 | Llorean | Or if you have the old bootloader, hole Menu down while booting. |
06:54:15 | johnd0e | I scoured the docs and didn't find anything... |
06:54:19 | Llorean | johnd0e: It's in the IpodFAQ on the website, and *probably* in the manual too. |
06:54:42 | johnd0e | Leave it to technology to leave me feeling stupid... haha... |

09:22:32 | DataGhost | no I haven't checked it yet indeed :) |
09:23:04 | LinusN | it turns out that fat32 is very much non-trivial to fix |

09:23:16 | DataGhost | and ext3? |

09:26:36 | GodEater | just bootleader then ? |

09:27:21 | LinusN | not even that |
09:27:30 | GodEater | no? still sleep() hangs ? |
09:28:35 | LinusN | because the current ipod.c displays the partition table *after* mounting the file system |

09:31:19 | GodEater | well that's what I meant ;) |
09:32:04 | | Quit lurk_err ("leaving") |
09:32:41 | LinusN | the rockbox fat driver is very optimized for low memory usage |
09:32:48 | GodEater | as I would expect |
09:33:17 | LinusN | but that unfortunately made it harder to adapt for 1024-byte physical sectors |
09:33:52 | LinusN | i curse toshiba for not allowing 1-sector reads |
09:34:05 | GodEater | I second your curse, and also thumb my nose at them |
09:34:25 | sneakums | i additionally set them on fire |
09:34:33 | LinusN | :-) |
09:34:50 | GodEater | in fact, I nominate them Rockbox's "Public Enemy No. 1" for the month. |
09:36:03 | GodEater | here's an idea |
09:36:31 | GodEater | is it worth just re-writing ata_read_sectors so that it always reads 2, and always throws away the second one ? |
09:36:36 | GodEater | very inefficient |
09:36:41 | GodEater | but perhaps easy to make this worth with ? |
09:37:18 | * | GodEater waits for his shiny idea to get shot down in flames and stamped on.... |
09:37:50 | LinusN | GodEater: then it wouldn't be compatible with the existing filesystem |
09:37:56 | GodEater | heh - I can imagine amiconn choking into his breakfast just reading that |
09:38:07 | GodEater | ah well - it was just an idea |
09:38:31 | GodEater | how is the exisiting file system done then ? |
09:38:55 | LinusN | according to the fat32 specification |
09:39:08 | GodEater | I'll google for it |
09:39:21 | LinusN | if we only used every second sector, we will not be able to read the filesystem |
09:39:27 | sneakums | it's a horrible word document somewhere on microsoft.com, iirc |
09:40:02 | sneakums | LinusN: well, i think the idea is more to round the requested sector down to even, read 1024 bytes, and throw away whicever half isn't needed |
09:40:10 | sneakums | so it would read the existing format |
09:40:15 | LinusN | GodEater: no need to google, http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/pub/Main/DataSheets/FAT32Spec103.pdf |
09:40:40 | sneakums | but the writing would be horrible if you try to hide it that way, i guess |
09:40:52 | sneakums | since you'd have to read the 1024 bytes, change the right 512, and write it back |
09:41:00 | sneakums | (assuming writes as constrained as reads are) |
09:41:01 | | Join bluebrother [0] (i=tvRsxQK8@rockbox/staff/bluebrother) |
09:41:08 | LinusN | sneakums: yes, that is a way, but then we must handle unaligned reads and writes by buffering, and that is a mess |
09:41:29 | | Quit akadewboy () |
09:41:50 | GodEater | I did a cursory inspection of the code tree, and never came up with anywhere that we were reading many sectors at once |
09:41:58 | LinusN | it's not that fixing the fat32 driver is impossible, just not as easy as i had hoped for |
09:42:37 | LinusN | GodEater: exactly, the only places we do that is when we read/write files |
09:42:40 | GodEater | so I always figured it was currently returning 512 byte buffers |
09:43:46 | GodEater | so my idea was to just modify ata_read_sectors to always return the first 512 bytes from a 2 sector read. That way the code calling ata_read_sectors would always get back what it currently expects |

09:44:08 | LinusN | GodEater: what about when it reads an odd sector? |
09:44:16 | GodEater | but that would become very messy (as you say) when we start doing more sectors at one time than just one. |
09:44:37 | GodEater | does the Toshiba driver moan when you give it an odd starting sector number as well then ? |
09:44:44 | GodEater | s/driver/controller |
09:44:56 | LinusN | afaik, yes |
09:45:02 | GodEater | what a pain |
09:45:04 | sneakums | the ata spec seems to indicate you'd have to do the i/o on multiples of the physical sector size |
09:45:13 | GodEater | I thought we just had to set NSECTORS to a power of 2 |
09:45:26 | GodEater | not LBA to be a power of 2 as well |
09:45:52 | sneakums | er, my sentence didn't really say what i wanted it to say, i think |
09:45:57 | sneakums | but you get it anyway :) |

10:26:43 | bluebrother | you can look in the New Ports forums if there is a discussion about that player. |
10:27:01 | bluebrother | but I doubt that −− never heard of an iaudio 6 |
10:27:27 | webguest52 | It's the newest version, I thought. http://global.cowon.com/product/product_iAUDIO6_feature.php |
10:28:04 | Thundercloud | bluebrother: the 6 has been out for quite a while. |
10:28:47 | webguest52 | Any idea if there are technical reasons why Rockbox wouldn't work on the iAudio 6? |
10:29:00 | bluebrother | hmm, I'm definitely not up to date |
10:29:25 | bluebrother | do you know techical details about the iaudio6? Like CPU? |

10:30:59 | LinusN | it's too bad that they decided to discontinue the x5, it was a very popular rockbox target |

10:32:20 | webguest52 | Yeah, I want to buy 5 units but the stores here say "no can do, no longer sold" |
10:32:39 | webguest52 | So I might have to buy the iAudio 6 but I need to know if RockBox will work on them |
10:32:55 | LinusN | no it won't, at least not in the near future |
10:33:06 | LinusN | try to get hold of some x5's from another store |
10:33:16 | bluebrother | amazon.de seems to still have some in stock |
10:33:27 | webguest52 | University regulations unfortunately require me to purchase from approved sellers, argh. |
10:33:38 | LinusN | their loss then |
10:34:13 | webguest52 | Is porting to X6 probably difficult? Or probably similar? Or impossible to say? |
10:34:28 | LinusN | the x6 is a totally different beast, afaik |
10:34:33 | webguest52 | Aaargh. |
10:34:40 | bluebrother | so no more coldfire? Too bad. |
10:34:45 | LinusN | very bad |
10:35:41 | webguest52 | Well, I'll try to convince my superiors to purchase remaining X5s from non-approved sources. |

11:03:25 | GodEater | I don't think that's where it's hanging |
11:03:39 | GodEater | when I got to the point with numerous printf()s of narrowing it down |
11:03:46 | GodEater | it suddenly skipped past the point it was hanging |

11:07:11 | webguest52 | Sorry for the noob question, but what use is the fw file? Reverse engineering the binary firmware? |
11:08:10 | tucoz | You can find info on the hardware used for instance |
11:09:38 | tucoz | webguest52. it is a lot easier to add a bootloader to the player if the original fw is not encrypted. |
11:10:16 | webguest52 | Ah, I get it. Reminds me of hacking disk boot sectors on my Atari 800 back in the day. |
11:11:46 | webguest52 | i6_FW.bin appears unencrypted (just downloaded and ran strings on it) |
11:12:56 | tucoz | yep. so i remember it to be |
11:13:31 | webguest52 | What's the general process of adding a bootloader? Reverse engineer magic numbers for booting, disassemble the code, insert a jump point to your code, that sort of thing? |

11:20:06 | LinusN | hehe |
11:20:36 | bluebrother | use obfuscated debug stings like "!!!" only ;-) |
11:21:32 | webguest52 | So, anyway, i6 is probably technically possible with RockBox given the firmware, right? |

11:33:57 | webguest52 | I assume the SDK for such chips costs $$$? |
11:34:21 | LinusN | it's not so much the $$$, it's rather the NDA |
11:34:26 | webguest52 | Ah... |
11:34:30 | GodEater | webguest52: that's one hurdle - but they're normaly bound up in NDAs too - which would mean we couldn't use them, even if we could afford them |

16:21:56 | impsy | Can I still install it now? |
16:22:02 | Mikachu | rip to wav and encode to flac with anything else otherwise |
16:22:57 | amiconn | EAC can use some encoder dlls / acms, and also allows to use any commandline encoder you want |
16:24:59 | Febs | Doesn't CDex also allow the use of a command line encoder? If so, then it can encode to FLAC. |

16:31:20 | Bradley | markun, isnt the best way to rip straight from the source? |
16:31:32 | | Quit impsy ("CGI:IRC (EOF)") |
16:31:42 | n1s | Bradley, Waw is generally uncompressed PCM −− no quality loss |
16:31:48 | n1s | Wav |
16:31:51 | markun | Bradley: WAV and flac are both lossless. You can change from one to the other as much as you like |
16:32:13 | markun | n1s: yes, you are more correct as WAV is a container format |
16:32:53 | robin0800 | markum in preferences converter sayes flac level 5 |
16:33:02 | Bradley | but don't you get compound-errors when you convert between WAV and FLAC ? |
16:33:11 | markun | Bradley: no |
16:33:52 | linuxstb | You can go from WAV -> FLAC -> WAV as many times as you like and have identical WAV files - that's the definition of lossless. |
16:34:22 | Febs | Think of FLAC as the audio equivalent of ZIP or RAR. |
16:34:27 | GodEater | Bradley: lossless = no information is lost. |
16:34:30 | markun | Bradley: just don't do the same thing with lossy compression like mp3 or vorbis |
16:37:24 | DataGhost | Also very funny when you see someone transcode a 64kbps mp3 into 320kbps |
16:37:32 | DataGhost | and then he tells you he notices a difference in soundquality! |
16:37:38 | DataGhost | the 320kbps sounds a lot better!!11 |
16:37:52 | DataGhost | Usually I just let him believe that :') |
16:38:10 | n1s | Well that is what really matters after all |
16:38:22 | Mikachu | maybe he likes the sound of mp3 artifacts |
16:38:27 | DataGhost | :P |
16:38:32 | Bradley | ok cheers |
16:38:37 | markun | DataGhost: I saw some posts about how crappy ogg vorbis was because when he converted his mp3s they sounded worse |
16:38:49 | DataGhost | well, there are a lot of 'stupid' people in the world, at least people who are convinced they are right |
16:39:22 | DataGhost | someone @ university, doing computer science... claims a non-native (1280x1024 instead of 1400x1050) resolution is much better on a laptop |
16:39:39 | n1s | markun: do you mind if I #if 0 out utf16decode() in unicode.c it isn't used anywhere? |
16:39:39 | Bradley | im really into quality music- i use 320K mps (when i HAVE TO use mp3 that is) |
16:39:49 | DataGhost | because on 1400x1050 it flickers (??????) and "it's not good for your screen to have it running at the highest resolution" |

16:40:15 | DataGhost | hehe I guess so yes |
16:40:21 | DataGhost | oh yes and it's not good for your eyes either |
16:40:37 | Mikachu | when people read stuff in a computer magazine they won't believe the opposite no matter if you prove it |
16:40:40 | DataGhost | I pointed out that his entire screen was blurred (well, that's how I noticed it in the first place) but he couldn't see a difference |

16:43:21 | Febs | Bradley: you might be able to save yourself a lot of space by doing an ABX test. |
16:43:31 | Bradley | i cant fine EAC - well i found a downloadsite but the links are broken |
16:43:54 | Bradley | ABX test?> |
16:44:01 | Febs | EAC: http://www.exactaudiocopy.com/ |
16:44:06 | Febs | ABX test is a double blind test. |
16:44:23 | Febs | Compare a lossless file against a compressed file like an MP3 without knowing which is which. |
16:44:36 | robin0800 | try foobar2000 |
16:44:41 | markun | n1s: I'm pretty sure it used to use my utf16LEdecode function |
16:44:58 | Febs | My guess is that you wouldn't be able to distiguish a decent MP3 from the original at compression levels far less than 320kbps. |
16:45:27 | DataGhost | I read a test about that once |
16:45:37 | DataGhost | 64-320kbps + original, tested by 5 people |
16:45:49 | n1s | markun: I'm not going to remove the LE and BE functions, those are used at least in id3.c but the general utf16decode, as it isn't used. |
16:45:52 | DataGhost | all tracks were burned on a CD in random order so they couldn't tell which |
16:46:06 | DataGhost | for pop music, 64kbps turned out to be the best quality :') |
16:46:12 | markun | n1s: how many bytes do you save by removing it? |
16:46:23 | DataGhost | and for the rest ~192 kbps was the limit |
16:46:24 | n1s | about 100 on h300 :-) |
16:46:39 | Mikachu | 5 people is hardly a basis for a scientific study |
16:46:54 | DataGhost | Mikachu it was published in a computer mag... nuff said :) |
16:46:57 | Mikachu | ah |
16:47:19 | Febs | Hydrogen Audio tests show that LAME -V5 is transparent for most people. |
16:47:28 | Febs | That bitrate averages around ~132kbps. |
16:47:35 | DataGhost | hm |
16:47:40 | Bradley | depends on your hearing ability - but mostly the quality of your equipment (imho) |
16:47:49 | DataGhost | indeed |
16:47:54 | Febs | I disagree. |
16:47:59 | DataGhost | I can hear the difference between 128 and 192kbps |
16:48:02 | | Quit Stalwart (Remote closed the connection) |
16:48:02 | DataGhost | without knowing |
16:48:16 | DataGhost | usually I hear 'crappy sound', then I check my mp3 player and see it's 128 kbps |
16:48:24 | Febs | That's meaningless. |

16:48:47 | Febs | If the 128kbps file was encoded in 1999 by a poor encoder, it has no relation to the quality you might expect today from LAME 3.97. |
16:48:57 | DataGhost | well, I never get mp3s lower than 192kbps |
16:49:05 | markun | Febs: and when you can hear the difference between 192 and 32 kbps? :) |
16:49:13 | DataGhost | so the 128kbps ones I have must have slipped through my checks :) |
16:49:53 | Bradley | Febs, i couldnt find EAC on the URL ?? |
16:50:16 | Bradley | Febs, i couldnt find EAC on that URL you gave me |
16:50:27 | Febs | EAC=Exact Audio Copy. |
16:50:43 | Febs | That url *is* EAC. |
16:51:07 | Bradley | yar i know but i cant navigate anywhere to donwload it |
16:51:09 | Febs | Wait. |
16:51:13 | Febs | Sorry. |
16:51:13 | Bradley | ok |
16:51:33 | Mikachu | there's a hell of a difference between a 128kbps cbr file and a lame encoded ~128kbps quality based file |
16:51:40 | Febs | http://exactaudiocopy.org/ |
16:51:49 | Febs | (.org, not .com) My mistake. |
16:51:58 | Mikachu | it's likely vbr at 128 is better than cbr at 160 and even 192 for some music styles |

17:19:50 | robin0800 | I don't know |
17:20:10 | linuxstb | Bradley: It's the compression level. 5 is the default, but I use 8 for all my FLAC encodes. The higher the level, the longer the encoding time, and the smaller the resulting file. |
17:20:34 | robin0800 | it is adjustable though from i to 9 |
17:21:07 | GodEater | linuxstb: how long does your machine take to compress a typical 4 minute tune at that level ? |

17:21:42 | linuxstb | GodEater: I don't know. I think it's slower than the actual ripping though. |
17:21:57 | GodEater | but not by much if you're not sure ;) |
17:22:21 | Mikachu | secondly, filenames can be arbitrary bytes except 0x00 and 0x2F, but xml only allows a specified charset, so you have to invent some private way to encode bytes in xml, and that definitely doesn't make it exchangeable |
17:22:27 | Bagder | Mikachu: I didn't even other to read that much |
17:22:30 | Bagder | bother |
17:22:32 | robin0800 | at 5 20tracks took 4mins |
17:22:34 | Mikachu | audacious uses it |
17:22:46 | Mikachu | i had to hack it a bit to make it actually save my filenames properly |
17:22:55 | Mikachu | they use url encoding for all filenames now :) |
17:23:00 | Bagder | haha |
17:23:11 | Mikachu | so the .xspf files are like 4x as large as the .m3u file |
17:23:21 | Mikachu | and i doubt anything else will find the files |
17:25:23 | preglow | they're xml... |
17:26:42 | Mikachu | yes, that provides the first 3x :) |
17:26:44 | Bagder | xml but with added encoding on the filenames |
17:27:23 | Bradley | but the quality of flac remains the same no matter what level you choose - right? Its just the file compression - nothing to do with the audio - am i right? |
17:27:34 | preglow | Bradley: correct, hence lossless |
17:27:35 | n1s | yes, correct |

18:08:46 | Nico_P | for the two cues in memory, the assumption is that mp3s described bu cuesheets are long so we'll rarely have more than two cuesheets to store |
18:09:04 | Nico_P | but i agree it's not general enough and doesn't work for SPC files |
18:09:36 | Nico_P | or SID files i mean... anyway smaller files with cuesheet type info in them |

18:25:15 | Nico_P | linuxstb_: would using the plugin buffer be an acceptable (temporary until metadata on buffer arrives) solution in order to get my album art patch in SVN ? |
18:25:28 | Nico_P | and maybe also for the cuesheet patch, i don't know |
18:26:46 | rp- | ok i will, with the video i have no proplems is not downsized and i get only 13 frames, maybe the lcd update timing creates these errors, but i will talk about it with dan_a |
18:27:30 | linuxstb_ | I would like to see your album art patch in SVN, but using the plugin buffer just seems to be adding complexity. You need to deal with the case where the plugin buffer is being used when the album art should be being buffered... |

18:28:28 | linuxstb_ | Nico_P: What is the cost in terms of memory with your current album art patch? |

18:29:52 | linuxstb_ | What about the id3 structure? |
18:30:23 | Nico_P | placing a bitmap in there would mean reserving space for 32 different bitmaps |
18:30:43 | linuxstb_ | I mean do you add fields to the id3 structure? e.g. the bmp filename? |
18:30:49 | Nico_P | ah sorry |
18:30:52 | Nico_P | yes |
18:31:34 | Nico_P | the bmp is looked for in get_metadata |
18:31:52 | linuxstb_ | I was thinking that you could remove that filename, and just use a single byte instead - e.g. 0 means cover.bmp in the same directory, 1 means same name as current track etc. Would that work? |

18:40:24 | Nico_P | that's true |
18:40:41 | linuxstb_ | But yes, cuesheets could work that way as well. |
18:41:17 | Nico_P | what's the smallest possible type besides a bool or a char ? |
18:41:40 | linuxstb_ | There isn't one. And depending on the alignment needs for other variables in the struct, a bool/char may need more than one byte. |
18:42:11 | Nico_P | ok, so what's the best to use to store small values ? would a char be ok ? |
18:42:31 | linuxstb_ | Yes, I think so. |

18:43:11 | Nico_P | or is it optimised to take as less as possible ? |
18:43:29 | Nico_P | as little as possible i mean |
18:44:05 | Nico_P | that's something i've been wondering (because of the WPS tokenizer) |
18:45:10 | linuxstb_ | I guess it will also depend if gcc is optimising for speed or space - chars can sometimes be slower to deal with than ints. |
18:46:04 | | Nick linuxstb_ is now known as linuxstb (n=linuxstb@rockbox/developer/linuxstb) |
18:46:59 | linuxstb | Also, I think that a first commit of album art would probably need to be without the bmp resize patch. I don't think amiconn was happy with how that was implemented. |
18:47:25 | linuxstb | But I'm definitely in favour of committing album art if the impact on non album-art users is minimal. |
18:48:21 | linuxstb | The efficiency of album art itself can then be improved when/if metadata-on-buffer is implemented. |
18:48:57 | Nico_P | linuxstb: i agree about the bmp resize... anyway it's no longer in sync with SVN because of the big changes amiconn made to BMP handling a while ago |
18:49:12 | | Join midgey [0] (n=tjross@markely-164-75.reshall.umich.edu) |
18:49:16 | Nico_P | it used a pretty bad resizing algorithm |
18:50:59 | Nico_P | so what should i go for ? buffer_alloc with an onn/off option like for the cuesheets (that would require a much bigger buffer but album art users are probably willing to sacrifice the file buffer), the plugin buffer, or the current system (which i don't like much) ? |
18:52:25 | linuxstb | Would buffer_alloc store 32 bitmaps? |
18:52:44 | Nico_P | all have different issues... i don't really see which could be the best. Maybe a combination of two, like plugin buffer + wps image buffer for the current bitmap (to avoid it getting overwritten by a plugin) |
18:53:00 | Nico_P | linuxstb: no idea... plus it depends on the size of the bitmaps |
18:53:15 | Nico_P | which varies with the size of the target's screen |
18:53:46 | linuxstb | Do you know if the wps is loaded before or after buffer_alloc is available? |
18:53:47 | Nico_P | and there is also the possiblity of having many times the same bitmap for the buffered tracks |

18:55:53 | perl|work | does the album art patch spins the disk on every track now? |

18:56:26 | perl|work | i was doing the battery bench with it, though the tracks in the playlist didnt have any art, so im wondering... |
18:56:54 | Nico_P | perl|work: then it probably didn't change anything to the result |
18:56:57 | Nico_P | or did it ? |

19:03:54 | linuxstb | Looking at apps/main.c, gui_sync_wps_init() is called immediately after settings_load(), so I'm guessing we will know the size of the album art image at a time when we could buffer_alloc() 32 of them (if we wanted to go that route). |
19:04:07 | linuxstb | But it does seem a waste... |

21:41:16 | DataGhost | n1s question: how do you power on with the hold button on? :P |

21:41:45 | jackfusion | I have 5g |
21:41:56 | n1s | do what the others said |
21:42:10 | Mikachu | you can put the cable in to turn it on |

21:43:06 | linuxstb_ | jackfusion: Is your Rockbox bootloader showing white text on a black background, or back text on a pale blue background? |
21:43:50 | jackfusion | press and hold menu to get into the apple firmware. |
21:43:53 | n1s | DataGhost: The problem is that whit ata poweroff enabled on h10 the first read after poweron fails. It sounds to me like it is trying to read too soon, increasing the READ_TIMEOUT didn't help... |
21:44:50 | barrywardell | n1s: i've just been reading the bug report |
21:44:54 | DataGhost | oh and I don't have a h10, whatever that may be :) |

21:45:42 | n1s | barrywardell: do you mean the patch? If so my last post there is the only thing I can think of |
21:45:59 | barrywardell | n1s: might be worth adding a sleep(HZ*2) into ide_power_enable() in firmware/target/arm/iriver/power-h10.c |
21:46:08 | barrywardell | or maybe a longer delay |
21:46:19 | amiconn | 2 seconds??? |
21:46:35 | n1s | DataGhost: the problem is that I don't have one either |
21:46:40 | DataGhost | hehe |
21:46:41 | barrywardell | just for testing purposes |
21:47:14 | BiptoN | barry is it possible to move the ata thread to the cop ? |
21:47:20 | DataGhost | and I'm not even entirely sure yet how ata works |
21:47:36 | DataGhost | but if it's trying to read too soon, could it be possible that the request is 'ignored' until the drive is ready? |
21:47:45 | DataGhost | which would lead to a sleep() indeed :) |
21:47:59 | n1s | yes, but it will timeout |
21:48:05 | amiconn | The drive should set busy until it's ready |
21:48:15 | barrywardell | BiptoN: i don't know. i'm really not the person to ask about that |
21:48:35 | DataGhost | should |
21:48:41 | amiconn | BiptoN: Why would you want to do that? |
21:48:53 | DataGhost | I've seen enough in the last few days to not trust 'should' things with drives :P |
21:49:01 | amiconn | The ata thread has _very_ little to do |
21:49:59 | BiptoN | well, the codec "seems" to take alot more cpu to run and me and william were thinkin of chnagin the speed to 1/2 so maybe less intensive things could run on it |
21:50:01 | BiptoN | exactly |
21:50:16 | BiptoN | if it has little to do it could run on the cop at 1/2 speed right? |

22:42:43 | baseballluver | I was trying to, but I ran into walls with the itunes 7.0 firmware upadater. |
22:43:00 | baseballluver | this is my second ipod, and on the first ipod, I modded it a lot. |

23:48:44 | linuxstb_ | But I'm probably not the best person to comment, as I don't use either kind of resume... |
23:48:47 | Zagor | unpause != resume |
23:48:52 | linuxstb_ | I thought it was in SVN ? |
23:48:54 | Mikachu | i am almost sure it's in svn though |
23:49:53 | Zagor | yes it is: 'unplug_rw' |
23:49:53 | | Quit baseballluver ("CGI:IRC (EOF)") |
23:50:06 | n1s | What will it do if it rewinds past the start of the track? |
23:50:18 | Zagor | start at beginning |
23:50:21 | amiconn | If rewind on resume is going to be added, there should be an option |
23:50:34 | n1s | sounds good to me then :-) |
23:50:35 | amiconn | I often use resume, but I would never want it to rewind |
23:51:19 | amiconn | jhMikeS: No idea... |
23:51:38 | Zagor | amiconn: just to clarify, it won't rewind to start of the track. just a few seconds. |
23:51:45 | amiconn | I understand that |
23:52:10 | n1s | I don't think I would be able to tell if this feature was either on or off, often I don't even remember on which track I was |
23:52:13 | amiconn | Resume should resume where I left off, not a few seconds back or forward |

23:52:36 | EnterUserName | hey all |
23:52:41 | Mikachu | i see why it's useful for audiobooks |
23:53:02 | Zagor | Mikachu: yes, that's what I want it for |
23:53:14 | Mikachu | just a thought, would it be easier to change the code that saves the resume point? |
23:53:17 | EnterUserName | as there been any advancements in video for nano and using smaller video |
23:53:19 | Genre9mp3 | yes it's very useful with audiobooks, so one can have an option for this |
23:53:19 | EnterUserName | files |
23:53:23 | EnterUserName | instead of raw filesd |
23:53:27 | amiconn | I don't have audio book, but even if I would, I don't understand why resume should rewind |
23:53:48 | Mikachu | amiconn: if you read a book, to you resume at the exact same word, or a paragraph/page back? |
23:53:48 | Zagor | amiconn: so you remember where in the story you are |
23:54:17 | n1s | EnterUserName: The video was never raw, but now it has sound too :-) |
23:54:21 | amiconn | Mikachu: I stop at chapter boundaries, and resume exactly where I left off |
23:54:35 | EnterUserName | oh n1s: wasn't it large avi files where 20 minutes would be like 2 gigs |
23:54:50 | GodEater | I stop wherever and pick up right where I left off |
23:55:05 | EnterUserName | im wondering if it allows something like divx or something similiar.. |
23:55:10 | Genre9mp3 | and what if something interruots you while listening? |
23:55:22 | Zagor | well, an option it is |
23:55:26 | GodEater | I have a good memory =/ |
23:55:37 | amiconn | Either I remember where I was (audio or printed book) then I would always want to resume exactly where I left off. Or I don't, then I would start over anyway |
23:55:44 | n1s | EnterUserName: Nope, the old ones were m2v, which is peg 2 video without sound, now we use mpg which is mpeg video with sound |
23:55:58 | n1s | and no divx/xvid |
23:56:04 | EnterUserName | hmm |
23:56:08 | amiconn | The latter would take several weeks to apply (that I don't remember where I left off) |
23:56:09 | EnterUserName | mpg.. how big of a file is that.. |
23:56:17 | EnterUserName | for 20 mins.. |
23:56:21 | linuxstb_ | As big or as small as you want it... |
23:56:30 | n1s | Depends a lot on bitrate |
23:56:42 | EnterUserName | hmm thank you.. its been a whuile since i used it.. i'll give it a try :) |
23:56:46 | amiconn | Genre9mp3: That's what pause is for |
23:57:40 | linuxstb_ | EnterUserName: Look at the PluginMpegplayer wiki page. That has some sample files as well. |
23:57:55 | n1s | Zagor: maybe the resume on startup option could be extended to resume, resume with rewind and off |
23:57:58 | linuxstb_ | (as well as a long to-do list of unimplemented features...) |
23:58:07 | Zagor | Mikachu: have you used the headphone rewind option? does it work well in your opinion? |
23:58:12 | Genre9mp3 | oh... I thought we were talking about an option for rewind on resume after both pause or stop |
23:58:24 | | Quit Stalwart^ (Connection timed out) |
23:58:28 | Mikachu | Zagor: no, i only use headphone resume without rewind |
23:58:44 | Zagor | n1s: nah, that'd need more bits for that option and hence make the config block incompatible. better a new option. |
23:58:50 | Genre9mp3 | anyway... I never listen to audiobooks so I would never need it actually |
23:58:59 | | Quit Aggression (Read error: 113 (No route to host)) |
