00:22:08colorblindjimboSomeone should make a dock that has USB ports and crap for Ipods. So you can plug in monitors and keyboards and mouses into your ipod.
00:22:17colorblindjimboIf thats even at all possible.
00:22:47blarggHas to be, since the iPod can communicate with a host PC via USB.
00:22:48linuxdante^mobillol.
00:22:51dewdude_i don't think that's possible
00:23:06blarggUSB might be a bottleneck for video, though.
00:23:28dewdude_ummm..thta wouldn't work anyway
00:23:29hcsif the dock was the host, yeah, possible...
00:23:47blarggRight, the dock would need its own CPU and stuff... making it kind of pointless.
00:23:47dewdude_but why would you want a keyboard on the ipod anyway?
00:24:00linuxdante^mobilto play doom1^^
00:24:05dewdude_i mean, the ipod i believe has HOST stuff in it already
00:24:16dewdude_so, it could in theory work....but there's the issue of coding it
00:24:25dewdude_and reverse-engineering the usbhost functions
00:24:29hcsI don't think it does, but I don't know for sure
00:24:50dewdude_i read in a doc that it did
00:24:53dewdude_because of that ipod camera
00:25:04dewdude_but, it's pointless anyway
00:25:13colorblindjimboI bet with enough work it could work. It could turn into the worlds smallest laptop sorta thing.
00:25:14dewdude_it's a msic player, yeah, it's cool to play doom
00:25:17dewdude_but it's also pointless
00:25:31hcsI could get all the computation and storage I need from an iPod, it'd be better to carry that around than my cruddy old laptop
00:25:56dewdude_hcs: that sounds like soemthing you should take up with the ipl crew...and not rockbox
00:25:58hcsheh
00:26:00dewdude_that'd be too much work to implement for rockbox...

00:26:57dewdude_yes, demo
00:27:00dewdude_that's where it should stop
00:27:11colorblindjimboYea, but it would be cool to do with an IPod as well.
00:27:21dewdude_the point of rockbox, imho, is to be open source firmware replacement for media jukeboxes

00:35:13blarggZagor, no more cost than manually passing a "this" pointer around.
00:35:29colorblindjimbowhat is WPSes?
00:35:35Zagorblargg: exactly. who needs "this"?
00:35:57blarggApparently using global variables results in poorer code, due to the way the compiler accesses them.
00:35:57Lloreancolorblindjimbo: While Playing Screen. I suggest reading the manual some.
00:36:18dewdudeLlorean, oh, i know..but i was hoping to maybe get some kind of acceptance so it could get mentioned on the website
00:36:37blarggAt least for the ARM targets.
00:36:42Zagorblargg: hehe, we like a little more technical detail in our discussions :)
00:37:22Lloreandewdude: If it proved popular I'm sure it could be added to the IRC page. Maybe rockbox-community?
00:37:27hcsyes, I noticed a huge improvement when converting a codec using many global variables to passing around a const pointer to a struct containing them
00:37:39fasmaieAlonea: So I'm guessing you still have not received the power cord
00:37:43blarggIn a CPU emulator in the critical loop, the compiler was spitting this out:
00:37:44blarggldrr3, .L458 ; r3 = pointer to CPU_remain_
00:37:44blarggldrr2, [r3, #0] ; r2 = CPU_remain_
00:38:38blarggIt even did this twice in the instruction dispatch, reloading .L458 twice, rather than once and caching it.
00:39:20blarggIf you use a "this" pointer, then the access becomes a single ldr r2,[this,#offset]
00:39:27Zagorblargg: so a poorly optimising compiler is worked around by using C++? if pointer passing is more efficient, simply use that instead.
00:39:51dewdudeLlorean, i like the ring of that. I shall create the room and hope popularity spreads.
00:40:23blarggThe poor optimization is worked around by manually passing around a "this" pointer to functions, and making code more verbose with this-> everywhere. Switching to C++ enables use of a member function, eliminating this verbosity.
00:40:53Lloreandewdude: Just try to make sure it doesn't split the support base. People shouldn't be going there for anything remotely technical (except maybe WPS design, I suppose)
00:40:57blarggThat's all I was saying, is that C++ offers some tools that make code easier to work with, without imposing any run-time cost.
00:41:27dewdudeLlorean, i put in the topic that support for offical builds is to come here.
00:41:27Zagorit also offers a huge pile of tools to hide and obfuscate code. tools that C++ programmers tend to enjoy using to the max.

00:48:10preglowblargg: whether using pointers to structs instead of global vars make better code depends on the arch you're on
00:48:48preglowalso how clever the compiler is
00:49:29preglowblargg: one reason why c++ wouldn't fit well in rockbox, is that it pretty much needs dynamic memory allocation to be maximally useful, and rockbox doesn't do that, and with good reason too
00:49:52 Quit miepchen^schlaf ("Verlassend")
00:50:08blarggI'm thinking gcc might be able to do it efficiently. I also noticed that function calls on ARM used a three-instruction sequence rather than a single bl. The three-instruction sequence is to support functions compiled with THUMB instructions, but it even did this when the called function was static and known to not be THUMB.

00:50:49hcsmaybe there is a switch to discourage thumbisms?
00:51:16blarggpreglow, true, porting average C++ code would require everything on the stack/global, so allowing C++ in Rockbox would be beneficial mainly for code written specifically for Rockbox.

00:52:01linuxstb_I thought that was just one specific version of 4.1?
00:52:10Lloreansafetydan: I thought Coldfire was 3.4.6
00:52:27hcs-mnothumb-interwork is supposed to be the default, though
00:52:27blarggpreglow, is that due to the way things are linked? I'd think the compiler would realize that a static function could be called however it pleases, since it knows the context it'll be called from.
00:52:38n1slinuxstb_: I could easily be wrong :-)
00:52:44linuxstb_n1s: As could I :)
00:52:55safetydanLlorean, probably, I'm at work so don't have my x-compile environment around
00:53:01preglowblargg: it's because we have some code in iram, which is outside of the ordinary branc instructions call range, and we're not able to tell stupid gcc exactly which functions need long calling
00:53:06linuxstb_blargg: It's to do with IRAM being > 32MB from DRAM.
00:53:15amiconnblargg: The three-instruction calls are also because sectioned compilation makes all calls far calls. Gcc is too stupid to make only those calls far calls which need to be
00:53:15Lloreansafetydan: If I recall 3.3.x was the SH1 one before we moved it up to a 4
00:53:15blarggAnother idea (that might help with globals too) is to mark the entities are unexported (assuming GCC has a concept of exporting a symbol)
00:53:30blarggpreglow, ahhh.
00:53:56preglowblargg: if we could tell gcc that, tens of kilobytes of jump code would be redeemed
00:54:27blarggWhat happens if you compile just the files that need this special sequence with different options?
00:54:47*amiconn thinks the whole concept which decides which function calls need to be far calls is flawed
00:54:49preglowblargg: problem is that gcc needs to use a call sequence which depends on exactly which function it is calling
00:54:51amiconn...in gcc

00:55:03preglowblargg: also, it also depends on which function it's currently compiling
00:55:25amiconnWhen putting code in sections, gcc should allow to specify _pairs_ of sections which need far calls
00:55:57blarggWhat I mean is, say you have function in_ram() which needs the special sequence when called. Put all calls to that in a special file and compile differently. If it's called from many places (including user code), write a forwarding function that users call normally.
00:56:08blargg(or maybe I don't understand the extent of the problem)

01:00:44hcspreglow: what about calls between functions in the same far-space?
01:00:52amiconnIf a function is declared far-call, it's far-call for all callers

01:01:39blarggAhhh, so GCC needs to have a way that there are multiple "local" regions of memory, and which of these a given function is in.

01:03:33amiconnI don't think you can map dram to an address which is not a multiple of its size
01:03:42preglowamiconn: no, i don't so either
01:03:50preglowso it's pretty hypothetical

01:07:43amiconnBut then we need some special tweaks to convince gcc to not optimise too much

02:43:26amiconnThe SH1 is better in addressing small structs than large structs

02:43:51pixelmadefault settings I mean
02:43:57amiconnIt can use immediate offsets (i.e. a single instruction) for offsets up to 15
02:44:42JdGordon... thats the 4 resume settings in the new struct
02:44:46amiconn...and the index is scaled, i.e. it's 15 bytes, or 15 shorts, or 15 ints

04:40:45 Quit BiptoN ("Leaving")
04:40:49SoapTake your calipers to it today, and again next week. A swelling battery will often continue to swell until either it fails violently or the internal circuitry disables it, depending on the battery.
04:41:39theonewhat causes it to fail?
04:41:46theoneI mean swell
04:42:13theoneand what dangers are there with a swelling battery
04:42:20SoapI am familiar with the symptom, not the cause unfortunately.
04:43:41SoapA LiIon/LiPoly battery can fail in many ways. 1) Stops working 2) Internal circuitry decects fault and disables it 3) Fire 4) Explosion.

05:00:48Febstheone: (but I'm not really a technical person so don't rely too heavily on my word.)
05:00:54FebsXero: just ask your question.
05:01:03XeroAlright..
05:01:22theoneFebs, so rockbox has nothing to do with how much current/voltage the battery gets?
05:01:22XeroSo I downloaded a theme, and some graphics don't line up where they're supposed to
05:01:42XeroI've tried playing around with settings multiple times but nothing seems to work properly.
05:01:54 Join daurn|zaurus [0] (i=daurn@124.243.164.7)
05:02:02Febstheone: I don't think so. But again, I emphasize that I'm not a technical person. People like LinusN or amiconn are better able to answer that.
05:02:18FebsXero: did you download the font package?
05:02:44daurn|zaurusyo
05:03:39Soaptheone: Reverse charging can happen because a "battery" is a collection of individual "cells". In high quality LiIon battery packs there is circuitry designed to prevent discharging the battery (and thus the cells) too far. This circuitry only works if the individual cells are matched. Matched cells are cells which have very close to identical discharge capacities and rates. The reason matched cells are important is because if you have (for example)
05:03:39Soapa three cell battery, and if two of those cells discharge from 1.2 to 0.5 volts in an hour of usage, yet the third cell discharges all the way to 0.2 volts in an hour, there will be a tendency for the two cells still at 0.5 volts to charge the third cell, leading to a bad situation where all the cells equalize at 0.4 volts, even though the charging circuitry in the device _thought_ it was smart enough to keep the battery itself at a safe 0.5 volts.
05:03:39JdGordondaurn|zaurus: wlan or gprs?
05:03:51daurn|zauruswlan
05:04:12XeroI believe I did but probably not. I'll give it a try now.
05:04:16daurn|zaurusgprs is too expensive
05:05:12FebsXero: that is the most likely cause of your problem. The second most likely cause is that the theme you are trying to use requires patches that are not part of the official Rockbox builds.
05:05:34FebsCheck where you downloaded the theme, and see if the description indicates that any patches are necessary.
05:05:34Soaptheone: And, yes, those numbers are totally made up. In a worst case situation an unmatched cell can discharge fully, continue to be drawn on since the pack as a whole is still in positive territory, and be pulled into a reverse situation.
05:05:50XeroThank you.
05:06:20XeroMy second question...Is there anyway to browse my music through artists and albums?
05:06:31theoneSoap, so your explanation probably just means the battery was bad to begin with?
05:06:35FebsYes, use the database. I believe it's chapter 4.2 of the manual.
05:06:43XeroBecause it seems like a can browse music but it all appears in one big spot, and it's all incoherent letters
05:07:00FebsAh, you have an ipod.
05:07:19Soaptheone: IF that is the cause. Sitting on the dash of a hot can can be enough to vent NiMh/Nicads or rupture LiIons.
05:07:23Xeroyeah, sorry. should have said that before
05:07:26Soap*hot car
05:07:41FebsApple, in its wisdom, renames all of your files like that to make it difficult for you to deal with the files without using iTunes.
05:08:02Xerooh good.
05:08:14XeroIs there anyway to fix this?
05:08:27FebsBut Rockbox's database function can find those files and allow browsing by tags.
05:08:49FebsLike I said, read chapter 4.2 of the Rockbox Manual. ;)

05:10:16theoneSoap, thanks. Maybe I charge mines incorrectly? I have the stock AC adapter, but I have an inverter that I use to convert the 12 volt dc from the car to the 115Vrms ac...could the inverter be the culprit? Anytime I drive I charge, and I'd say that out of all the time I use the device, it's 75% in the car
05:10:44theoneand I say I use it about 6 hours a day
05:10:51Soaptheone: I douby your inverter is to blame.
05:11:54theonewhat if voltage isn't stable...my car's electrical system isn't that good
05:12:02 Part gtkspert
05:12:05SoapI constantly have one to a dozen LiIon batteries charging in my work-truck, all of my chargers run off my inverter.
05:12:35Soaptheone: voltage instabilities and charging I can't speak to.
05:12:38theonehow big is your inverter...mine is a small handheld 60watt one
05:13:04Soap60 watts is more than enough to power your iRiver charger.
05:13:04theonethat plugs in the accessory outlet
05:14:28theonehmm...I just don't want to have to buy another battery and put it under the same conditions which maybe made previous ones fail in the first place
05:15:30theoneand especially if I conclude that old batteries were just cheap and I decide to spend some money on a recognized battery
05:17:13theoneon another and entirely different note...I used to get stack overflows on startup from the tagdb
05:17:40theonea 'reboot' usually solved it

06:16:21Juddyjust a quick question. what is the difference between a daily build and a SVN build? and which is better
06:16:23Juddy?
06:16:42goffasvn is up to the minute
06:16:47goffadaily is done every day
06:16:51goffasvn is more current
06:17:06Hdaackdagoffa: is there any way to display titles instead of file names in the rockbox playlist?
06:17:07goffai dunno about daily.. i wouldn't really say its more stable
06:17:21goffayou could switch to tag cache
06:17:31goffabut that sucks battery from what i hear
06:17:45Juddyah, i see. thogh i cant imagine there would be all that much difference, dealing witht hose time periods
06:17:55goffatrue
06:17:57Juddythanks goffa
06:17:59goffasvn i'd say is better
06:18:02goffabecause its more improved

06:32:14Juddyisnt more bass better if ure headphones can handle it?
06:32:23sneakumsit's purely a matter of taste
06:32:34sneakumsi like how my music sounds with 0, so i use 0

07:10:37midgeyit drops 32 horizontal lines and 16 vertical lines
07:10:39Juddyhey anyone watched the elephants dream video on their player?
07:10:58Juddyit looks amazing on my gigabeat but the sound seems stuffed?
07:11:22Juddyis it like that on all players?
07:11:29midgeyJuddy: there is no audio syncing
07:11:31LloreanJuddy: Did you set the framerate limiting to on?
07:11:47Juddyyer
07:11:47Juddyi did
07:11:47Juddyit fixed it a bit
07:11:58Juddybut still not useable
07:12:51LloreanJuddy: Well then wait for mpegplayer to be finished.
07:13:03Juddywhen is that expected?
07:13:27LloreanWhen someone does it.
07:14:04LloreanThere are a lot of other things that need working on that have to do with audio, and that's generally considered the core focus, so it may be a long time unless someone drops in and picks it up
07:15:23*Llorean wonders if Rockboy could benefit from multicore.
07:15:38LloreanOr does it monopolize the CPU already?
07:16:19midgeyi know iboy uses the cop
07:16:42Juddyhey i got it better llorean.. the limit fps somehow reseted.. and i turned up sound on while playing a song before playing the vid
07:16:46Juddynow it works flawless
07:17:03Juddyand it seems to be relatively in sync
07:17:44Juddydo u always have to turn the sound up before using the mpegplayer or can u do it within the programn?

08:40:01*amiconn thinks 'persistent settins' is an odd feature...
08:40:16JdGordonyes, but nice to have.. :)
08:40:57amiconnI can't imagine what to use it for...
08:41:25amiconn...and atm I also can't see how you would un-persist a setting on target once it's persistent
08:41:35amiconn...even with the text editor
08:41:42 Join ender` [0] (n=ender@84.52.165.220)
08:42:02JdGordonto unpersist you have to do it on the computer.. yeah thats probably an oversight :p
08:43:37JdGordonthe volume example is the best one i could think off... maybe you never want to start it with shuffle on? i dont know
08:46:42JdGordonamiconn: I can whip up a simple plugin to handle that...
08:47:37LinusNJdGordon: not a plugin, i think settings should be core stuff
08:48:04JdGordoni thought a plugin because its enough to be bloat in the core...
08:48:28amiconnThe problem is that you could remove the ~ with the text editor... but on shutdown, rockbox would overwrite config.cfg and rewrite config.cfg with the persistency marker
08:48:38LinusNah yes
08:49:03amiconnYou can't even do it from the pc
08:49:10Bagderso can anyone think of an actual use case for this feature?
08:49:13LinusNamiconn: yes, in the bootloader usb mode
08:49:14amiconn(except in bootloader usb mode and on ipods)
08:49:43LinusNBagder: constant volume at startup
08:49:51Bagderyou'd want that?
08:50:02LinusNsome people seem to
08:50:06Bagderreally?
08:50:08JdGordonconstant _anything_ on boot up
08:50:17BagderJdGordon: _what_ would you like constant?
08:50:23amiconnMaybe it's because how I use my 'boxes, but I always want to start it with the last volume. Locking it to a constant would be baaaad.
08:50:35JdGordonBagder: you havnt accidently left the volume on too high with auto-resume enabled and blown your ears out?
08:50:47Bagderguessing what others might want is not a good way to do features...
08:50:58LinusNamiconn: i wouldn't use it either, but there have been requests for a similar feature
08:50:59BagderJdGordon: no
08:51:12JdGordonyour lucky then.. i have many times
08:51:15amiconnIn car and on hifi, volume must be 0dB (for targets without separate line out) or muted (for targets with separate, fixed level lineout)
08:51:16Bagderfor the volume case there have been some requests for a MAX

08:52:33sputnikrenti have a questina bout the 5g ipod 60gb

08:52:51sputnikrenthwo can i use the faster disk mode without having the itunes software installed
08:52:59JdGordonBagder: ah ok.. i probably picked a bad word.... once its loaded you can change the setting....
08:53:01sputnikrentis there a way i can do that, or no?
08:53:11BagderJdGordon: yes, but once you reboot you get the former value again
08:53:15JdGordonbut it will always save the value that was loaded

08:54:58sputnikrentLinusN: and i don't want to use the emergency disk mode
08:55:08JdGordonBagder: a max_volume setting only works for volume.. this was it would work for any of the 180 settings
08:55:14LinusNsputnikrent: oh, then i don't know
08:55:18JdGordonLinusN: it isnt there?

08:55:26sputnikrentLinusN: hm okay, thanks
08:55:29Bagderand MAX would be closer to what people want
08:55:54Bagderadding features that might be good for someone else is not a good idea
08:55:58BagderI don't like that
08:56:06LinusNJdGordon: maybe i should have checked before i asked, but i thought you moved it to the nvram block

09:08:31LinusNamiconn: ok, and the backlight-when-plugged setting?
09:08:36amiconnOr maybe it was, but then charging was started before even loading nvram settings
09:09:26amiconnAT least the calculated safety timeout was always based on 1500mAh regardless of the actual capacity when booting with the charger plugged
09:11:01amiconnLinusN: What would make this setting so special?
09:11:05LinusNamiconn: in init(), it loads the RTC settings before entering the charging screen, doesn't it?
09:11:38*pondlife is unhappy that he can't access the half of the internet that contains rockbox.org. :-(
09:12:00Bagderpondlife: how do?
09:12:02Bagderhwo so
09:12:03pondlifeOT, I know, but I have very limited comms. Can someone look at http://www.ntl-isp.ntl.com/lookup/default.asp for me.
09:12:05Bagderhow so
09:12:09amiconnThe charging screen isn't what counts.... the powermgmt thread reads the value from global_settings when it's started
09:12:17LinusNamiconn: i seem to remember that there were some settings that applied to the charging mode, and the backlight settings came to mind
09:12:29pondlifeSee if there is some problem in Reading or Winnersh. Probably snow on a satellite dish.....
09:13:13LinusNamiconn: powermgmt_init() is called *after* settings_load(SETTINGS_RTC)
09:13:17amiconnLinusN: Hmm, perhpas it decided what the backlight does in the charging screen

09:13:41amiconnLinusN: Perhaps, but the fixed safety timeout is observed behaviour on my recorder
09:13:46LinusNamiconn: and i doubt that powermgmt reads global_settings, since it is in firmware/
09:13:48pondlifeI shall search for a proxy somewhere
09:14:20amiconn...and I do have 2700mAh cells. Before I had 2500 for a short while
09:15:43LinusNso it defaulted to 1500mah, but only because the capacity setting was on disk
09:15:52amiconnIt was? ok
09:15:59LinusNsorry, that was a guess
09:16:18LinusNbut it must have used *some* settings, since the car adapter mode worked
09:17:26LinusNi just want to make sure we don't break anything with the file-based settings

09:54:20webguest20Hmm... I also thought E was correct. But it's source code and not the manual, so spelling errors are not so critical.
09:55:05stewy123hi does rockboy work on the sansa?
09:55:15webguest20Another question: What if I already have the config.cfg file in .rockbox? Will it be overwritten?
09:57:36*JdGordon cant spell :p
09:57:47JdGordonit will load that config and then resave onto it
09:58:52 Quit dan_a ()
09:59:19webguest20JdGordon: so the config is saved to the same file (or, more precisely, to a file with the same name) as it was loaded from?
09:59:47 Quit stewy123 ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
10:00
10:00:02JdGordonno, config.cfg is always loaded on boot, and its used to save... if you load some other file it will still save to config.cfg
10:01:43webguest20JdGordon: ok, thanks. But it's still possible to save the config to another file (manage settings -> save config)?
10:01:55JdGordonyes
10:03:00***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
10:04:01webguest20JdGordon: and what if I don't have any .cfg files and the config is only stored in a hidden sector (as it was before)? When I'll start RB after a version update, the default settings will be loaded (since there is no config.cfg) and then saved. So my previous settings will be lost!
10:04:34JdGordonyes, so you should save them before updating
10:04:43webguest20So, before updating to the version with the new cfg saving engine, I'd better save my settings to a separate .cfg file.
10:05:00webguest20JdGordon: I can't type that fast! :-)
10:10:23*linuxstb spots a patch for Rockboy on the smaller colour LCDs
10:12:33webguest20JdGordon: still here?
10:12:42JdGordonyeah
10:15:06webguest20JdGordon: a few days ago, there was a discussion about the settings API. The main point was that, as of now, set_option (is this the right name?) sets *an index* rather that *a value*. So you have to translate the current value to the index, call set_option, and then convert the index back to the value. It was proposed to extend the menu_option struct to include both value and text.
10:15:47webguest20You must have discussed this with linuxstb (?) but you haven't come to a conclusion. Do you have plans about this?
10:15:58linuxstbNot me.
10:16:47webguest20 linuxstb: or amiconn. Or someone from the 'core' developers.
10:17:18JdGordonwebguest20: im not 100% sure what you mean
10:17:38JdGordonit might have been JhMikeS who i talked to about it... but yeah, im not sure what your talking about ;p

10:19:44webguest20JdGordon: hmm... Look e.g. at the fireworks plugin. There are always two arrays: one with the option texts and the other with the values. The setting variable effectively holds an index in that arrays. That's not nice IMHO.
10:20:40webguest20JdGordon: an index instead of the real value.
10:21:14JdGordonah yes ok... now i get you...
10:21:24JdGordonyes this will be taken care of
10:21:53JdGordonfor fireworks, if he used set_int and a formatter it would work just as well...
10:22:25JdGordonoh wait...
10:22:45webguest20JdGordon: ok! The you'll just pass an array of options and the current value to set_options. And it will find out which entry should be initially highlighted.
10:23:06JdGordonwhat the heck is he doing? :p thats just odd
10:24:29webguest20JdGordon: but there are cases where you can't format and instead have just a set of values. E.g. for scrolling speed in RB settings. Or could a formatter be used in that case as well?
10:25:27JdGordonyes and no :p
10:25:36JdGordonanyway, i gtg

10:45:18hcsjust sayin'
10:45:19w1ll14m|workTeknomancer you need a cross compiler

10:46:10Teknomancerand i've been hunting hi-and-low for a new battery here, but so far no luck
10:46:16linuxstbTeknomancer: If gcc and the normal GNU toolchain (plus Perl) works on BEOS, then you can compile Rockbox. It needs a Unix/Posix type environment.

10:47:52linuxstbYou should start by checking out the Rockbox source from svn, and then running the tools/rockboxdev.sh script. That should download and install the required compiler and binutils.

13:16:47Bagderhm, yes perhaps we should have it there too
13:16:57BagderI just feel the need for a fancier one is less important there
13:17:05linuxstbIt's only a default...
13:17:08Bagdersince the default is already fullscreen and all
13:17:17Bagderbut sure, I'm not against it

13:19:10pixelmaonly have a small objection: bitmapped WPSs increase boot time
13:19:32Bagderyeah
13:19:52Bagderbut we can always opt to a non-graphical one
13:21:27linuxstbpixelma: I agree, but that applies to all targets.
13:21:49pixelmayes ... that was meant generally
13:22:39linuxstbBut anyone that doesn't like the increased boot-time can simply choose a text-only WPS.
13:22:54pixelmaI was a bit scared when I first installed a bitmapped WPS and booting my Ondio took about twice the time

13:27:06GodEaterhmmm - seems to me you could make configurable menus a possibility. Perhaps not dynamically changeable while rockbox is *running* but surely at boot time...
13:27:26webguest70He-he. I tried the WPS from http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/5967 and got stuck with it. No BMPs and all, vers clean
13:27:37linuxstbGodEater: Yes, of course you could write a patch to make the menus configurable - I thought you were asking if it was already done.
13:27:49GodEaterno no
13:27:50webguest70I also use the font from there
13:27:51GodEaterI realised it wasn't done already

14:18:06preglowhasn't anyone agreed on a better way to store the wps bitmaps yet?
14:18:17Bagdernope
14:18:28Bagderbut we really should
14:18:50preglowyes
14:19:19preglowsomething simple would be nice, just as long as the problem of multiple files vanishes
14:19:25preglowtar/zip/whatever
14:19:30Bagderyeps
14:19:43Bagderwe can always work/improve the format later on
14:20:00preglowperhaps combine bitmaps that are supposed to be grouped, like codec bitmaps
14:20:26preglowbut yes, improvements later on is also nice, as long as we're rid of the tons-of-files thing
14:20:44preglowtherefore something like tar or zip sounds nice to me
14:20:55BagderI agree
14:21:01BagderI've voted for tar before ;-)
14:21:03preglowor just something custom, i don't care. does tar do efficient random access?
14:21:07 Quit GodEater ("CGI:IRC (Ping timeout)")
14:21:14linuxstbWe don't need efficient random access...
14:21:25linuxstbJust read them sequentially.
14:21:26preglowhmm, no, i guess we don't
14:21:31preglowwe can read them all at once anyway
14:22:05Bagderand a tar file probably doesn't even have to be decoded since I think there's very little overhead
14:22:25linuxstbIsn't is just a small header, followed by the file, and repeat...
14:22:32Bagderyes I think so
14:22:45linuxstbie. cat file1.tar file2.tar > file3.tar works.
14:22:47JdGordonNico_P: is it a bool?
14:22:55Nico_PJdGordon: no, an int
14:23:16JdGordonok, so just copy any of the {F_T_INT, ... settings
14:23:16Bagderbluebrother worked on tar loading iirc, we should ask him about it
14:24:05JdGordonNico_P: if it has a min/max/step then put it in a comment next to it... they will be used soon
14:24:09linuxstbSo the feeling is we should improve the bitmap loading speed before changing the default wps?
14:24:20Bagdernah, I don't think it is necessary
14:24:36Bagderbut the changing to bitmap wpses might give people the urge to work on it ;-)
14:25:32JdGordon1 image bmps??
14:25:41JdGordon1 image bmp wps' i mean
14:26:06linuxstbNo, many .bmp files, but packed into a tar file.
14:26:13preglowlinuxstb: by no means, but i feel such a simple thing should be fixed
14:26:13JdGordonok
14:26:43preglowalso, we should keep the old multiple file loading as well, since that's what'll be easiest for wps creators
14:26:57pixelmapreglow: I like the idea of grouped bitmaps too - I once counted this with the iCatcher bmps - it would have been one third or even a quarter of the files needed in the end
14:27:07preglowpixelma: yep
14:27:19preglowpixelma: also, i imagine it'll be a bit more practical for the artist
14:27:46linuxstbSo maybe add a new tag, pointing to an image .tar file in the .wps?
14:28:12linuxstbOr look for a .tar, and if it doesn't exist, look for the individual .bmps??
14:28:19preglowlinuxstb: hmm, i'd rather it went automatically, like just looking for wpsname.tar

16:04:34GodEateras I understand it, LinusN's changes will be far reaching across all RB targets and will need testing on pretty much everything.

16:07:42w1ll14m|workmarkun: no, it's a static file and isn't edited by rockbox config.cfg will have volume: 1 and autoload.cfg volume: -25 (autoload is loaded after config.cfg)
16:08:22markunw1ll14m|work: so, what will it do?
16:08:35markunalways set volume to -25?
16:08:59Soapdoes someone mind testing http://rockbox.cleansoap.org/tracker/ ?
16:08:59GodEaternow look - you called him chicken and he left !
16:09:10w1ll14m|workmarkun: unless you change autoload.cfg in /.rockbox/autoload.cfg
16:09:29Bagderperhaps we should allow some kind of include from a config file
16:09:45markunw1ll14m|work: why is that better than changing config.cfg?
16:09:53Nico_Pdoes someone want to test my new cuesheet patch ? no it's working the other way round : mp3 loads cue

16:10:40markunw1ll14m|work: but not the settings with ~ prepended
16:10:47w1ll14m|workmarkun: so it saves the current volume theme etc, autoload is an overlay that is loaded directly after config.cfg allows a static volume to be set
16:11:05w1ll14m|workmarkun: i think so
16:11:08markunso your patch does the same as the last commit, but in a different way
16:11:18markunthat's what I am trying to explain

16:46:59stinkeah, gentoo (crossdev) does those nasty little bits for me ..
16:48:17stinkei usually mask those, otherwise id be maintaining x86, avr and arm for every new release of gcc
16:48:44BagderI wouldn't recommend that route
16:49:04linuxstbBagder: Did you see DerPapst_'s message about 10 minutes ago - file permission problems on download.rockbox.org
16:49:50BagderI'm on it
16:50:15GodEaterstinke: I agree with Bagder - I'm on gentoo too - but crossdev is a pain in the ass
16:50:16linuxstbThanks - thought you might have missed it, as you're normally faster than this... :)
16:50:35Bagdercrossdev has messed it up for more than one rockbox dev too
16:50:43stinkehmm, i do only need stage one right? (gcc+binutils)
16:50:48GodEaterrockboxdev.sh is much easier
16:51:10linuxstbAnd it's also not recommended to update gcc very often - things have the habit of breaking.
16:51:32stinkelinuxstb, oh, yeah, im aware of that! ;)
16:52:47dune2stinke: yep, only -s1 is needed
16:53:34dune2stinke: I use it at home, gcc-4.1.1 and binutils 2.17 .... and it compiles without error rockbox
16:53:39stinkeill see how far i get with the generic arm-elf install with crossdev, since i started the compile already. The rockbox script is generic arm(thumb) otherwise right, so no required hacks on the gcc codebase right?
16:53:46Bagderstinke: and for arm, you should probably go with 4.0.3

17:16:28GodEaterI note there are only pictures there for 2 out of the myriad DAPS that Rockbox supports...
17:17:30markunbut I do quite like the style
17:17:48austriancodervery orange
17:18:01GodEaterI'm not saying it's a bad theme - but if it's to become the RB *default* it needs to work across a lot more than just two targets

17:23:08*GodEater means the Ferrari...honest....
17:23:09perl|workwell, clock and date would be a nice addition at least
17:23:24markunyes, probably
17:24:28markunand maybe it's time to add some bigger default fonts for targets with a higher resolution
17:25:52Soapand unicorns.
17:26:00linuxstbperl|work: The new config file system doesn't make setting different defaults any different - we could always set a different default WPS, it's just that no-one did.
17:26:41linuxstbBut see here - I'm awaiting feedback and for any objections. http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/6568

17:29:00markunlinuxstb: I'm also talking about the embedded font
17:29:44markunit was nice during debugging to have so much on the screen, but for general use it's too small on the Gigabeat (and ipod video too I guess)

20:10:21tucozLlorean, righto. i think i agree with you.
20:10:48LloreanAnything in the manual more or less *becomes* official, as far as I'm concerned, so if you were to add it, everyone would instantly assume that it's fully supported, and I'd rather just wait until there's a proper new bootloader version.
20:11:26barrywardellamiconn: linuxstb just pointed that out too. must be something else causing the freezes on disk access. sorry for the false alarm
20:11:33amiconnbarrywardell: If test_disk crashes or locks up, something must be wrong with the sd driver
20:11:43tucozLlorean, so be it

20:12:24barrywardelllinuxstb: yes, I did
20:12:27barrywardelllooking at it now
20:12:41barrywardelldoesn't explain why it has only started crashing recently though...
20:12:58linuxstbI'm not sure what the consequence of accessing 16-bit registers as ints would be though - especially on little-endian hardware.
20:13:18linuxstbBut it means that you can use amiconn's optimisations on the sansa - the copy_read_sectors() function looks identical.
20:13:36linuxstbBut obviously make it stable first...
20:14:48barrywardellthe thing is I only noticed the problem arising today, so it's probably quite new

21:46:11amiconnNo wonder the speed test seems to "hang"
21:46:32amiconnDoes the sansa have 32MB ram as most other swcodecs?
21:46:40dan_aI believe so
21:47:11amiconnAt 91KB/s, writing just the speed test file will take > 5 mins
21:48:56dan_aIt's nice that we have the LED which lights up when you move the scroll wheel to confirm that it hasn't hung
21:49:03Bagderhey, the sansa c200 series use mi4 too...
21:49:15amiconnOne lcd update per 16-bit transfer?
21:49:28amiconnwhoah
21:49:38dan_aamiconn: Only on aligned transfers.
21:49:53amiconnyup
21:50:58*amiconn thinks that something can't be right with the sansa's lcd_update then
21:51:00Mikachudan_a: it's not entirely unlikely the backlight will continue to function after a hang, if it's called from irq context
21:51:28amiconnIt means that lcd_update() does >45000fps

22:43:38SaLoMoNBagder, do have any ideas when the rockbox e200 port will be final?
22:43:42dan_aIt's PortalPlayer based, (I guess PP5024)
22:43:42SaLoMoNor can play sound

22:43:55Bagderit looks very similar to e200 based on the outside looks
22:44:26 Part massiveH
22:44:27amiconnMikachu: (1) The number also relates to the capacity. e200 is just the series, there's e240, e260 etc

22:47:03Bagderyou know the answer to that too
22:47:04midgeySaLoMoN: thats being worked on
22:47:13pixelmamarkun: still around?
22:47:31SaLoMoNmidgey, yeah but I wana now when it could be finished
22:47:37SaLoMoNif it are months or years
22:47:41linuxstb_tucoz: Yes. Or it's the kind of thing a site like rockbox-themes.org could do - packaging the bmp files for distribution.
22:47:47SaLoMoNor just some seconds
22:48:04midgeySaLoMoN: i'd estimate closer to months
22:48:06dan_aSaLoMoN: At the moment it's too far away to know.
22:48:07Mikachulinuxstb_: i'm just speaking without looking at the code, but wouldn't it make more sense to first get a list of filenames->wps bmp slots, and then read the .tar?
22:48:12SaLoMoNmh okay
22:48:22SaLoMoNthen i'll wait and update
22:48:25SaLoMoNah
22:48:39linuxstb_Mikachu: Where would you store that list?
22:48:52SaLoMoNIs it possible that I need to update the bootloader if I update rockbox?
22:48:55Mikachuhere and there
22:49:05SaLoMoNor will it be usable with newer versions too
22:49:08tucozlinuxstb_, another thing. isn't the problem with random access that it slows the loading? and in that case, then i consider you approach the best. (to read the .bmps in sequence)
22:49:09Mikachuyou could store it in the wps backdrop buffer for example :)
22:49:39Mikachu(just load the backdrop after the tar)
22:49:46 Quit Redbreva (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
22:50:12Mikachuor you could have rules for filenames
22:50:16Mikachuso they have to be a.bmp etc
22:50:21Mikachuso the mapping is hardcoded
22:53:29Mikachulinuxstb_: any of those ideas sound not crazy?
22:53:29linuxstb_Well, I think I'll do something like that - i.e. load all the bitmaps from the tar sequentially, then map to the wps. The advantage of tar over a proprietory binary format is ease of creation, and forcing the order of the bmps negates that.
22:53:58tucozwhy is tar better than cat?

22:55:06tucozah. right
22:55:06Mikachudepending on how linuxstb_ implements it, maybe even the .wps file
22:55:22linuxstb_I don't think I'll go that far.
22:56:19preglowlinuxstb_: zip support isn't too complicated either, with just archiving, no compression
22:56:29preglowlinuxstb_: however, reading the file sequentially in any case isn't really a bad thing
22:56:41Mikachubut then people will create compressed zip files and wonder why it doesn't work

23:01:50argonelBagder: i promised myself that i'd use it for an entire week before disassembling it
23:01:59Bagdernooo
23:02:10BagderZagor: yes sure several
23:02:29argonelscans won't do much good if its a multilayer board...
23:02:33dan_aI think that most of the pins go through a switch so they are only active when the Sansa is in the dock
23:03:05Zagorargonel: well it depends on the connector. very few connectors work with more than two layers.
23:03:06zefie?

23:04:29zefiei dont even have a scanner x.x
23:04:52argoneli'd do it, but my scanner is sheet fed

23:06:19argoneldoes anyone have a truly bricked e200?

23:08:24argonelsounds like fun
23:08:34zefiehmm why would it have a button battery in it?
23:08:42argonelrtc?
23:08:49zefiebut it doesnt have a clock

23:13:22zefiewould the AMS chip be the cpu?
23:13:31Zagormidgey: we are aware of that. we just haven't got around to fix our template system yet.
23:13:38Bagderzefie: no, a part of the microcontroller/CPU
23:13:49Bagderzefie: the cpu is PP502X
23:13:58midgeyZagor: just trying to find quirks :P
23:14:02zefiethere is AMS, sandisk, infineon, and some other chip im not sure of ;)
23:14:02Bagderwhere X likely is 4 in your case
23:14:20zefienothing says "PP" though thats what im looking for
23:14:24Bagderzefie: please note all numbers/digits exactly as written
23:14:31zefiefigures
23:14:39dan_aYay! I've got the aligned write speed on the Sansa flash up to something reasonable
23:15:25midgeyBagder: what was the final say on propedits? bad idea?
23:15:31dan_azefie: The CPU will probably have the logo at the top of this page on it: http://investor.portalplayer.com/ReleaseDetail.cfm?ReleaseID=216225
23:15:38linuxstb_dan_a: Is that just in C, or with amiconn's functions?

23:41:31Mikachujust curious, i won't reach any conclusion either way
23:41:32zefie(Bagder): nothing is behind the lcd
23:41:46zefieand trying to access it seems to tear off the background behind the backlight
23:41:49Bagderdarn
23:41:49argonelhmm. two different numbers from the same unit?
23:41:59argonelsame model, that is
23:42:00maquisi'm probably going to just restart it... but i'm kind-of annoyed because i have to re-build my playlist again since i can save playlists without trouble, but can't seem to play them
23:42:04Bagderso where's the cpu? ;-)
23:42:13zefiegood question
23:42:22zefiemaybe the manufacturing tool can give us more insight?
23:42:40Bagderwell, it pretty much _have to_ be a PP somewhere in there
23:42:46midgeyeh, is this the datasheet for the infineon chip? http://www.datasheetarchive.com/datasheet.php?article=1704556
23:43:00zefieyeah
23:43:17maquisMikachu: the one thing i just realized might be related... i turned it on while it was plugged in, then unplugged it for something, then plugged it back in
23:43:18maquislet me see if that causes the problem again
23:43:34zefieand it is probably the same as the e200 or pretty close because the rockbox e200 bootloader, while it just showed a black screen and powerd off after 10 seconds, did run... if that counts as running
23:44:02Zagorwhat is the square chip below the infineon?
23:44:14Bagderzefie: we'll be nice and count that now, but next time you need to come up with something better ;-)
23:44:18linuxstb_A disassembly of the bootloader should show quite quickly if it's a PP chip.
23:44:21zefielol
23:44:46Bagderlinuxstb_: the mi4 mentions PP5022 just like the e200 mi4 does
23:44:59*argonel bets its a custom chip
23:45:01linuxstb_There you go then...
23:45:01zefiethe fun part is i barely know C and know no assembly at all

What is the minimum support needed. Unfortunately, the font I've been using doesn't even have latin1 support (didn't realize that until earlier this week), so I'd need to change it to included at least that.

23:58:50Mikachubut if you can set it over http, how is it secure?
