00:07:08argonelone day on the manufacturers firmware and i hate it already
00:08:26n1swell someone will have to write a driver when (if) they get a data sheet so don't expect anything too soon ;-)

00:27:13Zagorthere. all the left-side menus should be correct now ('svn builds' instead of 'cvs builds')
00:27:25linuxstb\o/
00:28:46Mikachused -i s/cvs/svn/ /dev/hda
00:28:59Zagorhehe
00:29:22linuxstbIs it just me, or does the menu move when you select "wiki" or "index" under Documentation? i.e. the wiki html/css is slightly different to the main site?
00:29:40Mikachuit moves down half a line
00:29:50Mikachulike there was an extra <br> after svn builds
00:29:51Zagordoesn't move for me in opera
00:30:11Mikachuactually i think the spacing between every heading increases
00:30:14Zagorhowever 'manual' moves up half a line
00:30:33Mikachui don't think anyone will stop using rockbox because of it
00:30:48Zagorlooks like the menu in twiki pages has larger spacing
00:31:07Mikachuthe boxes at the bottom also have wildly different spacing both above and below
00:31:07linuxstbThe wiki html seems to have extra empty paragraph elements in the menu - <p />
00:31:16argoneln1s: i'll write the driver myself if necessary
00:31:37Zagorlinuxstb: weird
00:32:32linuxstbIt seems every blank line in the main website's html has a <p /> in the wiki...
00:34:05Zagorindeed. the wiki template parser is doing a bit more than we ask of it...
00:34:20linuxstbVery helpful.
00:36:12Zagorhmm, our preprocessor is inserting blank lines here and there. and then the wiki parser converts them into <p />. sed to the rescue!
00:37:40midkayhey, Zagor?
00:37:54Zagoryea?

00:45:19amiconnmidkay: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/TWiki/TWikiDocGraphics Relatively easy to find...
00:45:38TerrorByteCan someone tell me how to actually use a patch?
00:45:44midkayamiconn: ah, thanks. i did try a few variations of that, neither worked...
00:45:47TerrorByteJust point me in the right direction?
00:45:57aliaskTerrorByte: You using windows or linux?
00:46:17TerrorByteWindows.
00:46:22aliaskGot cygwin?
00:46:23TerrorByteI want to try the Rockboy patch for the H10 20 GB.
00:46:24Zagorthere, wiki menu is properly spaced again. clearing cache now.
00:46:32Zagoramiconn: yikes, that's a lot of icons!
00:46:36linuxstbTerrorByte: Follow these links - http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/DocsIndex#For_Developers
00:46:43TerrorByteErr no.
00:46:58amiconnmidkay: From an arbitrary editing form, click "More formatting help" at the bottom. In the popup window there's a link to the doc graphics
00:47:20aliaskTerrorByte: To apply a patch you need to be able to compile the source code
00:47:21TerrorByteI see.
00:47:33amiconn(near the bottom)
00:48:02TerrorByteI'm lost already.
00:48:03midkayamiconn: good to know. i guess that's how i got there last time, but i don't remember it as being a page meant to be seen by most people.
00:48:14aliaskTerrorByte: How badly do you want to do this, it's not really that easy.
00:48:14 Quit ender` (" An eye for an eye only leads to more blindness. -- Margaret Atwood")
00:48:43TerrorBytePretty badly?
00:48:49TerrorByteCan you guide me through this?
00:49:00aliaskNot really, I'm going to be leaving in about 5 mins
00:49:00LloreanTerrorByte: You can't just wait for the patch to be officially included?
00:49:15LloreanTerrorByte: You're going to *have* to do a lot of work on your own. Just read one of the guides to compiling and follow it.
00:49:19aliaskTerrorByte: This is likely to take you over an hour.
00:49:36TerrorByteAh.
00:49:37TerrorByteI see.
00:49:46TerrorByteIs there any way you can apply the patch and send me the files?
00:50:05aliaskSure, which patch, which target?
00:50:11linuxstbBut compiling your own build is a skill worth learning - it gives you lots of options for customising Rockbox yourself.
00:50:15TerrorByteIf that's not a possibility, I will wait for it to be oficially included.
00:50:15TerrorByteOkay.
00:50:26TerrorByteI need the H10 20 GB.
00:50:29TerrorBytePatch is the rockboy patch.
00:50:29TerrorByteHold on, lemme get link.
00:50:55LloreanTerrorByte: You really should just learn to do it yourself.
00:50:55TerrorByteakaias: http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/?getfile=13081
00:51:02LloreanYou've been in here asking for patches before.
00:51:10TerrorByteNo I haven't.
00:51:24TerrorByteI wanted a patch for multiple keys.
00:51:33TerrorByteOr just something done about that....
00:51:38LloreanYou wanted it to be coded for you that time.
00:51:46LloreanBut it's still an aspect of the same thing, simply compiling your own build.
00:52:39Zagor2006-10-29 04.15.04 # <TerrorByte> Also, how do I apply a .patch?

00:53:24TerrorByteIt's just that this is always what's brought up.
00:53:28TerrorByteWell whatever.
00:53:44TerrorByteIf nothing can be done, I'll wait.
00:53:57LloreanWhat's brought up? That you said something that turned out not to be true, or that something *can* be done, but *you* are unwilling to do it.
00:54:10linuxstbTerrorByte: aliask has already offered to compile it for you...
00:54:34 Quit entheh ("^~")
00:54:41TerrorByteMuch appreciated.
00:54:49aliaskWiki search is broken
00:54:56aliaskUh, how do you do a svn checkout?
00:55:06aliasksvn co svn://svn.rockbox.org/trunk/rockbox?
00:55:24Zagoraliask: ow. examining.
00:55:28preglowsafetydan: why not just commit that?
00:55:28Llorean svn co svn://svn.rockbox.org/trunk foldername
00:55:29LloreanI think
00:55:43Zagoryou can skip foldername if you want it called 'rockbox'
00:55:50midkayhmm. @ developers: i was just thinking about the #ifdef hell that is apps/plugins/SOURCES and i think it might be a good idea to totally overhaul this file, what sounds like a good approach to me is an #ifdef section for each possible target so you can quickly and easily add a plugin for specific targets or see what any given plugin is compiling for. any thoughts?
00:55:54safetydanpreglow, commit what? The partial patch? Because AFAIK, it will break all older voice and translation files
00:56:01LloreanZagor: If you don't type a foldername, it ends up in a folder named trunk, actually. Or it did for me.
00:56:05preglowsafetydan: why, that's a good point
00:56:19ZagorLlorean: oh, right. it uses the last "dir name" of the path.
00:56:19midkayor maybe a different design, but i think the current nested ifdef mess is pretty annoying to deal with.
00:56:24linuxstbmidkay: Do you mean duplicate plugins for each target?
00:56:41Zagoraliask: svn co svn://svn.rockbox.org/rockbox/trunk rockbox
00:56:43LloreanZagor: Not a real problem, honestly, but 'trunk' isn't the most descriptive if you've put it somewhere not clearly just for Rockbox stuff. :)
00:56:51preglowmidkay: can't say i like the sound of it
00:57:00aliaskZagor: Thanks
00:57:10midkaylinuxstb: i mean one entry per supported plugin on a per-target basis..
00:57:16midkayany other ideas? :)
00:57:17ZagorI forget the order of 'trunk' and 'rockbox' myself
00:57:46aliaskAt least it's a LOT simpler than CVS
00:57:51linuxstbmidkay: Fix all the plugins which don't work on certain platforms? :)
00:57:59aliaskI'd have to go to the wiki to copy the lines out every time.
00:58:05midkaylinuxstb: haha. something a tad easier? ;)
00:58:12Zagoraliask: hehe
00:58:20Lloreanlinuxstb: There are a couple plugins only useful on certain targets, though
00:58:28 Quit funky ("leaving")
00:58:44preglowi really don't like duplicating stuff that don't need duplicating
00:59:23midkaywhat about something a little bit shorter then, like.. forget all the ifdef-rtc, ifdef-swcodec stuff, just make an entire list of all the plugin .c files and ifdef/ifndef any of them that aren't fully supported on all players?
00:59:52preglowi like that better
00:59:57LloreanYou could also just have all plugins compile, and have the plugin .c files themselves determine if they get compiled or end up empty for that player?
01:00
01:00:08*amiconn thinks the ifdefing in apps/plugins/SOURCES isn't that complex
01:00:24preglowamiconn: i don't really think so either, but it could be better
01:00:28linuxstbamiconn: I agree, but it's starting to get messy again...
01:00:34linuxstbDidn't you clean it up recently?
01:00:35preglowit is
01:00:35midkayamiconn: it's way more than it needs to be, i think.. everything's way nested and overlapping and duplicated...
01:00:45preglowi've managed to mess it up a couple of times

01:02:01midkayLlorean has an interesting idea.. at the end of each plugin's keymapping, have an #else that stops the compiling of that file? is that possible? i can't think of how personally though..
01:02:25linuxstbkeymapping isn't enough to determine if the plugin works.
01:02:28JdGordon#else #error "blaa"
01:02:47midkaybut will that keep the compiler going on to the next file?
01:02:50Zagorthat makes it a lot more difficult to see which plugins are supported. you'd have to open every source file.
01:02:59midkaythat's true..
01:02:59bluebrothercounting the errors caught by the build system will get fun then ;-)
01:02:59LloreanThat's very true
01:03:03Mikachumake will stop on errors unless you run make -k
01:03:12Mikachuin which case it will continue even if it gets a "real" error
01:03:18midkaymaybe i'll play with SOURCES and i'll post it up for review if i come up with anything.
01:04:14 Part Llorean
01:04:49linuxstbHmm, the #ifndef HAVE_MMC around alpine_cdc.c seems an odd choice...
01:05:43amiconnThe comment explains why
01:05:47linuxstbI know...
01:05:55amiconnIt's not 100% clean, I know
01:06:00midkayindeed.. that's how the sources file seems to me.. quite hacky.
01:06:09amiconnImho "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" applies here
01:06:26midkayi don't wanna fix it, just improve it :)
01:06:30Mikachuif it's broke, give it money
01:06:39amiconnThere is the general split: all-targets/charcell/bitmap
01:06:52 Quit bluebrother ("Leaving")
01:06:57 Quit mirak ("Ex-Chat")
01:07:00amiconnThen there are some inevitable special cases, which could be grouped together
01:07:15safetydanAnyone have a good idea for how to name features for the lang files? Currently I have something like #ifdef HAVE_HEADPHONE_DETECTION headphone_detection #endif
01:07:18amiconnAnd then there are those cases which should be fixed by adapting the plugin...
01:07:22safetydanseems a bit wordy
01:08:19amiconnBrickmania for the sansa (needs graphics)
01:08:45amiconnMetronome for the sim (needs timer simulation or alternate code in the plugin)
01:09:23amiconnCalendar needs adapting to all the rtc targets (currently recorder only)
01:09:44linuxstbMaybe simply adding some indentation would clarify it.
01:10:08Mikachui suggested indenting the ifdefs in the code once and everyone looked at me like i was from mars
01:10:23linuxstbI like mars.
01:10:37Mikachui like twix betters
01:10:41Mikachu-s
01:10:46amiconnfireworks, xobox: Why are these not possible on the archos lcd? What about rockpaint on non-colour targets?
01:11:04Zagorsafetydan: if anything, I think it's better to be a little to wordy than a little too cryptic
01:11:21Zagors/to/too
01:11:29preglowamiconn: problem with stuff like that is that it can end up broken quite quickly
01:11:35Zagoreuhh, well you get it
01:11:35safetydanZagor, true. I'll just keep going with it as it is then.
01:11:44amiconnAnd finally: Why is iriver_flash a separate plugin instead of integrating it into rockbox_flash?

01:16:29 Quit linuxstb_ ("CGI:IRC")
01:16:44Mikachuthat #ifndef SIMULATOR is way too persistant all over the source tree
01:16:51Mikachuthe simulator needs more stubs and less polluting the source

01:18:16amiconnI'd rather have each source file only listed once, and shuffle the ifdefs around, than the other way round

01:19:21amiconnJdGordon: Uh, you really think so?
01:19:37JdGordonyeah
01:20:07amiconnfirmware/SOURCES is ~600 lines, more than 4 times of plugins/SOURCES, and I had to add my ata asm file _9_ times (!!)
01:20:23amiconnPretty damn ugly, imho
01:22:07midkayi haven't seen it, but i can imagine that you mean "long" instead of "ugly". it sounds long but more easy to work with.
01:22:18*JdGordon wonders if its possibly to automatically generate the SOURCES files
01:22:25linuxstbI agree with amiconn - the duplication in firmware/SOURCES isn't nice.
01:22:56amiconnMaybe it depends *what* you are doing in there, but I find it way easier to work with plugins/SOURCES than with firmware/SOURCES
01:23:17amiconnErm, insert an 'on' where you see fit
01:24:07midkaylong or ugly are too extreme, we need a good compromise :)
01:24:19Mikachu"in need of improvement"
01:24:33JdGordonamiconn: I think the ata files are in the wrong place in f/SOURCEs anyway which is why you dont like it
01:24:37amiconnHehe, imho firmware/SOUCRES is both long and ugly, while plugins/SOUCRES is nothing of both
01:25:10JdGordonthe 2 files are used differently... firmware is much more player dependant than plugins
01:25:16JdGordonyou cant really compare them
01:25:44midkayplugins/SOURCES is a fine length, but i still just feel like the nested/duplicated ifdefs are a little perplexing to work with, especially when you've got a plugin that only works on select targets.
01:26:00amiconnMikachu: One idea would be that on the firmware/ side of things, the sim could be a target of its own
01:26:07amiconnfirmware/target/simulator
01:26:24amiconn..checking for features from the config files where necessary
01:26:25Zagormidkay: the only real alternative is to have a long a complex ifdef statement for each plugin.
01:26:36Mikachuthat makes sense to me
01:26:51Zagorwith &&, ||, ! and lots of ()
01:27:02 Quit toffe ("MegaIRC v3.27 http://ironfist.at.tut.by")
01:27:47midkayZagor: imo that sounds way nicer.. you can see what target each plugin is being built for and no confusing ifdefs..
01:27:53amiconnThis way the sim could even evolve into a nice player application, defining its own features if so desired
01:28:12amiconnI know that some people already like to use the sim as a music player
01:28:17Zagormidkay: I think you vastly underestimate the complexity of the needed ifdefs...
01:28:28Mikachumidkay: the point is to express plugins as a function of abilities rather than specific targets
01:28:32midkayhmm?
01:28:39Mikachumidkay: so when you get a new target, it automatically gets the right plugins
01:28:44midkayMikachu: but a lot of plugins go against that.
01:28:51Mikachui was speaking ideallistically :)
01:29:01midkayyou'll still have to update all the plugins to use the new target, so you can *easily* modify one line in plugins/SOURCES.
01:29:33Zagorthe "features, not targets" philosophy is important
01:29:54amiconnImho one of the advantages of rockbox is that it's really multi-platform.
01:30:08amiconnAll plugins should be adapted to all targets if technically possible
01:30:16JdGordonunless you add a plugins/SOURCES.target file? so only plugins which work for the tagrte go there?
01:30:19midkayi agree for sure. but when lots of plugins don't work on targets they should, the ifdefing gets messy and hard to read.
01:30:36Mikachumidkay: see that as motivation to fix the plugins :)
01:30:54amiconnIf you ifdef every plugin separately, you support porting laziness... and it's rather hard to see which plugins still need adaption
01:30:54Zagormidkay: the fix is not to throw away the concept
01:31:21linuxstbZagor: The "features, not targets" isn't applied in firmware/SOURCES any more...
01:31:24amiconn...and you would make the line count explode
01:31:27midkaywell.. i didn't really mean ifdefing each one.
01:31:55midkayi don't know who came up with that idea. i just meant being a little more specific and organized with ifdefs, not nesting them like crazy.
01:32:10linuxstbI wonder why "#ifndef IRIVER_IFP7XX_SERIES /* Temporarily disable plugins for iFP7xx */" isn't at the top of SOURCES?
01:32:25Zagorlinuxstb: yes, it becomes a little more academic in firmware/. much of the firmware code is by nature specifically written for specific targets. that's hard to change.
01:33:23amiconnlinuxstb: Looks like the plugins before it are already working on iFP

01:55:39daurnimatorJdGordon: the what?
01:55:42kmBut is it necessary to format your iPod (5.5G in my case) before installing RockBox?
01:55:48daurnimator(just woke up)
01:55:50Mikachukm: only if it's a mac ipod
01:55:52JdGordondaurnimator: dw
01:55:58linuxstbkm: Is it a 30GB or 80GB ipod?
01:56:02km30, thank god.
01:56:08JdGordonthe f/a-18 's were flying in your direction before
01:56:09kmI've heard about the issues regarding 80s.
01:56:38kmSo I just slap the firmwire on and it gives me an option for RockBoxOS or MacOS on bootup? Or am I missing something?

02:13:57ZenMasterJGhey all. I'm in a software engineering class this semester, and we're to do a semester long project to develop some software. Me & my group were thinking of making an iTunes-like application, designed to work & sync with rockbox, as well as providing a simple RockBox installer & all the other usual iTunes features. Anyone think thats a good idea, or if there are similar projects out there I just haven't heard of?
02:14:13ZenMasterJG(whoops, that came out longer then I expected. Sorry.)

02:36:13safetydanSwing's not that bad. SWT's nice if you really can't stand Swing.
02:36:37safetydanJava 6 made a huge difference to speed of GUI apps if that's a concern.
02:38:14safetydanZenMasterJG, on a more practical note, I believe the current rockbox installer gui is written with wxWindows so maybe consider using that.

05:34:33JdGordon_anyone wanna help me with some mind numbing "coding" that needs to be done? I have to put a LANG_ id into each item in settings_list.c (about 200 of them), ive done about 30 :p
05:34:50daurnimatoruse a regex?
05:35:16JdGordon_nope..
05:35:43JdGordon_the lang id needs to be chosen from english.lang, and here is no regex would make that even half workable
05:39:16daurnimatorwhat you doing for oz day?

06:07:08daurnimatorbut was low on list of media players
06:07:21daurnimatori tried all the linux ones
06:07:26triplah_i dont get that, it's pretty nifty
06:07:28daurnimatorall were pretty unpolished
06:07:34triplah_i converted from banshee/rhythmbox
06:07:48daurnimatormaybe it was lack of codec support?
06:07:56daurnimatoror not supporting album artist tag?
06:08:16triplah_quodlibet uses tags heavily, and supports any codec i've come accross, including aac
06:08:32daurnimatoroh well
06:08:33triplah_its tagging util is awesome too
06:08:40daurnimatori've moved to windows and foobar now
06:08:45triplah_its reinspired me to tag my whole lib properly
06:08:57triplah_ah yeah, foobar would be what i'd use on windows
06:10:18daurnimatori'm not totally satisfised

06:27:19tamacrackerCan anyone help me out?
06:27:44Lloreantamacracker: Not unless you tell us what problem you're having
06:27:58tamacrackerBasically I have an album that's in MP3 format
06:28:14tamacrackerand I try to copy the folder into my music folder of my mp3 player
06:28:22tamacrackerfirst it tells me it's not allowed.
06:28:43tamacrackerSo I tried to be slick, create a new folder name it the artist's name.. then drag the mp3s into it.
06:29:15tamacrackerAfter I do this, the folder becomes discolored (this is on linux), I take the USB cord off of it, and the album is in my mp3 player
06:29:31tamacrackerbut... it wont play them, it skips the album and goes straight to the next album on the list.

06:30:19Lloreantamacracker: Did you properly eject your player?
06:30:24tamacrackerI plug the usb cord back onto it, and it's still dim. Then I check the properties, and it claims taht those specific mp3s are 0 bytes
06:30:30tamacrackeryep
06:30:37Roantamacracker: it sounds like a permissions problem.
06:30:46tamacrackernah
06:30:47tamacrackerbecause
06:30:50tamacrackeri tried another album
06:30:54tamacrackerand that had no problem what so ever.
06:31:18tamacrackerthe album that im havin a problem with, plays perfectly on Amarok and I also burned them onto a CD.. so it's not the MP3s.
06:31:56tamacrackercheck this out, I delete the album (folder)
06:31:59tamacrackerand recreate another one
06:32:03tamacrackerand for some reason
06:32:05tamacrackerit's still dim.

06:35:22tamacrackerthis is the error i get when tryin to copy: Could not make folder /media/GIGABEAT/My Music/Hip Hop/Saigon/The Best Of Saigon Vol. 2: On The Go Back.
06:36:03LloreanAve you tried using a shorter folder name?
06:36:22tamacrackeryep right now i renamed it to On The Go Back
06:36:37tamacrackerwhoa...
06:36:41tamacrackerok..
06:36:46tamacrackernow it did it without a problem
06:36:51tamacrackerim gonna see if they'll play now.
06:37:08tamacrackerwhat i assume is... it either doesn't like long folder names or colon
06:37:12tamacracker: <- that
06:37:35LloreanWell, I don't believe :s are allowed in filenames on Fat32...
06:37:43*Llorean didn't see the colon in there.
06:37:57tamacrackerah i see

06:40:08tamacrackeryes Llorean
06:40:12tamacrackerthat's exactly what it was
06:40:17tamacrackerit's the ":"
06:40:24tamacrackerit cannot be used in the file name
06:40:26midkayyay, we should get new brickmania bitmaps tonight.. finally.. :)

06:40:55tamacrackerLlorean lol thanks for your time :P
06:41:17Lloreanmidkay: I think it uses a much too small image, but tries to fill the whole screen. You get a lot of semi-randomly colored data
06:41:31midkayLlorean: gotcha.. i'll have a look at that.
06:41:41midkayworking on 5G support now, it should work, just need to test.. compiling.
06:42:03LloreanI mean, I imagine it's a relatively simple fix, either set proper bounds, or make a 240x320 image with a black fill for the rest of it. :)
06:42:14midkaythat'll be easy enough :)
06:42:29midkayohhh yeaah... 5G fullscreen baby.. :D
06:42:54midkaybetter play it a bit though. i recall it looked fine and worked fine on level 1 last time i tried this, but level 2 didn't work or something..
06:43:00midkaytoo bad i suck at this game :)
06:43:10LloreanHehehe
06:43:15LloreanThe game's kinda easy on the Gigabeat.
06:43:18LloreanBecause the screen is so tall.
06:43:46midkayyeah, makes sense.. it's a bit harder with large bitmaps on the 5G actually.
06:44:41midkaygaaaaah.
06:44:46midkayit's happening agaiiin...
06:45:11midkayhmm.
06:45:30midkayi think it must be a bug in the collision detection or something. level 2 draws fine, but the bottom row or so of bitmaps aren't affected by the ball.
06:45:46midkaymaybe because they're considerably larger and thus stick down farther than the 220x176 ones.
06:47:16midkaygood lord, talk about confusing code.

07:51:10tamacrackeroh, so it's best just to be patient about the movie playback

07:54:32tamacrackerlol
07:54:55safetydanI can only imagine the eyestrain that would cause. Isn't rvf playback a little grainy?

08:16:33amiconnmorning LinusN :)
08:16:49amiconnAgain using the crappy bouncer? (or what that was)
08:16:58JerryLangei have a question about what ipod linux says about rockbox.
08:16:58Lloreanmidkay: If there's one thing I like, it's telling people my opinion on things. Hehe.
08:17:08midkayLlorean: haha, fun it is :)
08:17:41LinusNamiconn: no, i just closed the wrong window
08:17:48JerryLangeipod linux says this on there 5.5 page.
08:17:58JerryLangeRockbox

08:18:01JerryLangen load the Apple OS. You can now install Rockbox using http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IpodInstallationBeta.
08:18:19JerryLangei didnt think rockbox ran on the 5.5gen yet?
08:18:37LinusNJerryLange: it runs on the 30GB 5.5G
08:18:46LinusNbut not the 80gb
08:19:11JerryLangeoh yes. sorry forgot. but they dont really say what version it runs on. this should be corrected.
08:19:22LloreanJerryLange: It's their page. Our page makes it perfectly clear.
08:20:01LloreanIf it's a wiki page of theirs that says it though, you could go ahead and clear that up.
08:20:09JerryLangeyes i know. ive been reading alot about the progress (what progress there is) of the 5.5g 80gig.
08:22:42midkayLlorean: how about these? http://img342.imageshack.us/img342/3901/brickmaniapads320x240x1vm8.png
08:23:05midkaythey're defined bumpers but also cast a quite slight glow onto the paddle..
08:23:08Lloreanmidkay: That I like.
08:23:35midkayi think that would look cool on-target (it's kinda hard to tell on white).. *tests*
08:23:40LloreanYeah
08:24:03LloreanOh, this seems something that needs to be called attention to: http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=8444.0

08:27:59midkayLlorean: wow, i think they look great. thanks again for your thoughts. :) i had struggled to come up with a way for them to seem actually illuminated, not just kind of a solid blue.. the subtle glow really seems to do the trick.
08:28:22LloreanJerryLange: Depends on what the actual license is on the font.
08:29:12amiconnhmm.....
08:29:40amiconntomal wasn't right that mpa.codec is the same when building with -Os instead of -O

08:32:47LloreanIt's in a lot of themes, but that's hardly a reason to keep it if it shouldn't be included
08:33:29LloreanThere's an awful lot of fonts at rasher's site, we could just stick in a similarly sized one.

08:35:46LloreanNeither nimbus nor xtal as they stand will work with existing themes.
08:36:01JerryLangeno i dont. sorry
08:37:07LloreanApparently Chicago is a 13, despite what it says.
08:38:06midkayhaha, "a 13".
08:41:05LloreanMy current theme just happened to be using Chicago.
08:41:47GodEaterwhen did the word "like" become punctuation ?
08:42:01LloreanLike, ages ago man.
08:42:12GodEaterlol
08:42:34GodEaterthat guy/girl(?)'s posts in the forum are virtually unreadable because of over usage of the word "like"
08:43:40midkaywho now?
08:43:53amiconnWhoah, and libmad compiled with -Os slows mpa.codec down to a crawl!
08:43:55*GodEater wonders if it's worth removing ALL the iPL stuff from the 80GB thread now. It's not particularly useful anymore.
08:44:39amiconnOn my mini G2, no eq: -O: boost ratio <50% -Os: boost ratio 100%
08:44:49GodEateror just archive the thread off somewhere and start a new one with one post detailing where we're at

10:05:09*Bagder can't recall the deails
10:05:17bluebrotherand something is a secret value depending on the dev? ;-)
10:05:19scorchei thought it was 1 for warnings, 10 for errors although some errors are different
10:05:30Bagderbluebrother: now that's an idea! ;-)
10:05:40Bagderscorche: ah, no you're right that's it
10:05:58*bluebrother goes filling out for getting a negative number
10:06:11bluebrother*filling out a form even.
10:06:11JerryLangethank you Llorean and Scorche
10:06:31midgeymidkay: score was 42856 from kkurbjun on dec 13
10:06:40midkayBagder: hm, i think it'd be nice in place of the [diff] link to have like [created] or [new] when it's the first revision of a file, and [removed] or somesuch for rm'd files.
10:06:46*midgey still thinks we should have a high score list
10:06:50midkaymidgey: where did you find that?
10:06:50midkayhaha.
10:07:13midgeyxaviergr mentions it in the logs
10:08:18midkayhaha.. while searching for preglow's i found this:
10:08:20midkay02.50.22 # <sharpe> yes, score one for sharpe. sharpe : one, midkay : twenty.
10:08:24*midkay is victorious!

10:09:23scorchemidkay: that isnt too surprising though...
10:10:01midkayscorche: well of course not. i'm just impressed he could admit it.
10:10:15linuxstbAre the History links on the wiki broken for anyone else? I just get a blank page.
10:10:17midkayalthough he definitely exaggerated my score a bit, it was surely more like 50-60.

10:56:34kclafyes I know but I have some stupid car audio player

10:57:13linuxstbBut once you start the Apple firmware once, does it ever reboot?
10:57:13kclafand i dont want to have to press HOLD all the time
10:57:25linuxstbI thought the Apple firmware just slept itself.
10:57:47kclafyes, but if I let my ipod for more than 17hours it shuts down
10:58:09kclafso it would start into rockbox when it boots
10:58:14linuxstbAnd then it reboots? I thought it just hibernated...
10:58:35kclafI dont think so, because I can see the black screen with the apple

11:14:51DataGhostyeah
11:15:08lachlan1212i'm 'lachlan' on the forums- if you hadn't already guessed
11:15:16DataGhostalso odd that you can code such a game with 2 people in under a month
11:15:25DataGhostbecause the reviews are apparently from september
11:15:36DataGhostoh wait, the 5G has been around for longer than that, right?
11:15:45lachlan1212yes

11:15:58DataGhosthm
11:16:03lachlan1212that was only introduced with the 5.5 G's, around september
11:16:14DataGhostso they wrote that game in a month. with 2 people.
11:16:24lachlan1212it seems the game was developed for the Ngage, which has been around for a couple year

11:19:13lachlan1212i doubt it would be different
11:19:28lachlan1212did the video show the ipod and the person hand controlling the game?
11:19:29Mikachuwell, google video provides the original nonrecompressed .avi file
11:19:43Mikachuyes
11:19:47DataGhostapart from that it's perfectly possible to create a video which simulates the apple interface and a working game, I can't conclude anything from that video :)
11:19:55DataGhostexcept for me being very skeptical
11:20:15lachlan1212thats understandable
11:20:15DataGhostand some could say the same about my iDoom-on-80GB-video :)
11:20:34DataGhosthowever they can easily test that now
11:20:49lachlan1212its also questionable as to how they managed to make it run without it being verified by iTunes, which all games must be to play
11:21:00GodEater"easily" assuming they're au fait with ext3-ing their iPod ;)
11:21:36lachlan1212haha, I was wondering how'd I'd missed the '80Gb now functional' post
11:22:26GodEateryeah - that's iDoom - not rockdoom
11:22:51lachlan1212so people are able to boot iPL now?
11:23:24GodEateronly if their iPod is entirely ext3 formatted
11:23:35GodEaterDataGhost fixed the bootloader
11:24:01GodEaterand the kernel reads 1024 byte sector ext3 filesystems
11:24:08lachlan1212Bless his ghostly soul
11:24:13DataGhostwell entirely isn't needed, but it just can't read fat32 and hfs+ yet :P
11:24:18GodEaterfat32 and hfs+ support are still unavailable though
11:24:24DataGhostso this time people with macpods are out of luck >:)
11:24:34lachlan1212was hfs+ ever supported?
11:24:46GodEaterfor iPL ? yes
11:24:57lachlan1212ahh, fair enough
11:24:58DataGhostI have no clue, but for the 5.5G 30GB the instructions previously said 'this will work on the 30GB macpods only'
11:25:15DataGhostand my quick fix on the linux kernel enabled iPL for the 30GB winpods, too
11:25:33GodEaterthink most of the original iPL devs were all OSX ppl - so they made HFS+ support the priority
11:25:39GodEaterwinpod support came later
11:25:49DataGhostbut I'm still not sure if it can do diskreads and the one who wrote the new tutorial doesn't respond to my testing requests
11:26:01DataGhostI'm not so sure about that GodEater
11:26:04lachlan1212Does IPL run as poorly on the 5.5G's as it does on the 5 G's?
11:26:05GodEateris that Tempel ?
11:26:07DataGhostI converted my iPod into a macpod aswell
11:26:13DataGhostthe mac partition table is different
11:26:19DataGhostso it read the partitions properly without modification
11:26:23DataGhostwell, only to the ata code
11:26:36GodEaterah
11:26:39DataGhostthe main reason it didn't work on the winpods was the MBR having the 'wrong' values
11:26:49GodEaterthat would make sense
11:26:56DataGhostyep :)
11:27:11DataGhostlachlan1212 I don't know.. I think so
11:27:22GodEaterdefine "poorly" :)
11:27:23DataGhostLet me look up a few vids... I think you mean podzilla2 by the way
11:27:26DataGhostwith 'poorly'
11:27:38DataGhostsince the mainloop claims 150% cpu or something like that ;)
11:28:42DataGhosthttp://de.dataghost.com/ipl/5.5G-80GB-iDoom.avi http://de.dataghost.com/ipl/Loader2-3.avi
11:28:48DataGhostI think those pretty much cover it
11:28:53lachlan1212I don't know exactly what I mean by poorly, but I was under the impression from what I read around the IPL wiki/forum that the 5G wasn't really stable
11:29:42lachlan1212those vids will probably play at 3 FPS on my computer but I'll give them a try
11:30:02GodEaterwhat are you running on? A ZX-81 ?
11:30:07DataGhostwell, they're from my camera... 320x240
11:30:10DataGhostiPods should run it :D
11:30:32lachlan1212Honestly, an iPod has more CPu than my computer
11:31:00lachlan1212those things people strap to their belts that count how many steps they take have more grunt than my piece of crap

11:37:05GodEaterbeen deleted as far as I can see
11:37:16GodEatershame - it always made me laugh
11:37:19DataGhostthe author probably tried gentoo and saw that it wasn't as bad :P
11:37:34GodEater−−omg-optimized !!!
11:37:49GodEateroh it was definitely tongue in cheek anyway
11:37:53GodEaterhe didn't really mean gentoo was bad
11:38:08GodEaterhe was just poking fun at the people who thought it was the be all and end all of linux distros
11:38:28GodEatermost of whom had no clue what they were talking about
11:38:47GodEater:rolleyes:
11:39:14lachlan1212hahahaha that is hilarious
11:39:34GodEaterdespite the fun being poked at it there - it *is* a good system
11:39:41GodEaterjust don't expect miracles :)
11:39:58GodEaterfor low end hardware like yours - I recommend E17 for your desktop lachlan
11:40:07lachlan1212to make matters worse, I havn't been able to defrag this Win 98 trainwreck for over 3 years because it stalls when I try
11:40:09GodEatereven XFCE is a bit heavyweight these days
11:40:17DataGhostit does work great for my epia, by the way
11:40:23GodEaterso Xubuntu might not be as great as you hope
11:40:26DataGhostit's got only 64kB of cache so I can optimize for that
11:40:32lachlan1212so gentoo is optimised for peices of crap?
11:40:43lachlan1212i thought it was a full distro
11:40:48GodEatergentoo itself is as optimised / unoptimised as you build it
11:41:00DataGhostyou can optimize it for anything
11:41:13lachlan1212ahh, I'm not that savvy with computers
11:41:32DataGhostit's just that you really start to notice the advantage of that on uncommon systems with, for example, a very small cache
11:41:49lachlan1212I meant in the way that Xubuntu is potimised for slow computers- it is intended to run with mininal ram/proccesing speed
11:42:08GodEaterI think even Xubuntu will struggle on a 64MB machine....
11:42:14lachlan1212s/potmised/optomised
11:42:17GodEaterbut you can only try :)
11:42:36lachlan1212yeah, I really should set fire to this thing
11:42:46lachlan1212but no money for a new computer:(
11:42:48GodEaterit's certainly an easier install than gentoo if you're scared of techy things htough
11:42:56GodEaterthough gentoo's installer *has* improved

11:45:02scorchefluxbox
11:45:06lachlan1212i think this is also a rather low quality computer, as i've used 98 on similarly endowed machinesand had it run much faster
11:45:26*GodEater thinks fluxbox is a little too much to expect for a "I just came from windows" user
11:45:43hcsI have a 2.4 GHz Pentium 4 and 768 MB of memory, but windows 98 can't manage it too efficiently
11:46:17amiconnBtw, what was the problem with sdl and framebuffer again?

12:04:18***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
12:04:37GodEateramiconn: although I'm not a fan of fluxbox myself - I think losing X entirely is a mistake. People who use the vmware dev environment need somewhere to run their simulator builds.
12:04:41lachlan1212and i daresay, if you bashed it against an ipod repeatedly it would come out thwe winner

12:05:22MikachuGodEater: the point would be to run the sim outside X

13:52:44DataGhostI just had to explain someone that what he did was wrong
13:53:06DataGhostintentionally destroying data on one of the drives in a raid1, leaving the raid superblock (software raid) and filesystem intact
13:53:13DataGhostand then doing fsck on the array without rebuilding it
13:53:37DataGhostand now he wonders 'what kind of data protection is this?' because his data is trashed. all of it. on both disks
13:53:51DataGhostand it was vital data :')

16:54:28markuntokyotourist: I think you should first reboot to get back to your rombox kernel or they will probably reset again on reboot
16:54:40pixelmatokyotourist: if rockbox.iriver is just the firmware file (as I assume) you just rolo'ed it. If you now shut the player off and on it should load the firmware from flash as it used to be (at least this is how it works on my Ondio)
16:56:03linuxstb_low_light: I don't think we have a choice - it needs to be a worst-case static buffer. But we could allocate it with buffer_alloc() at boot time, and it would only allocate space for things like album-art and cuesheets if those features were enabled.
16:56:08lostlogiclow_light: that's what I was talking about our different approaches, since I'm most familiar with playback.c, I started with putting the track structs on the buffer and actually I don't remember touching metadata.c at all, maybe that's why my code never worked...
16:56:34tokyotouristhmm, after accidently "Rolo'ing" it, i did restart the player, but it didn't restore my settings, thats why I reloaded my config file
16:57:17tokyotouristwhich is why i was wondering if i had to reflash it
16:57:19lostlogiclow_light: did metadata.c used to keep tag the id3 tags from the files actually in memory after it loaded them into the track struct and gave them back to playback?
16:58:27lostlogicI think if we move the track structs to the buffer and then allocate a track struct separate from the buffer it will have the 'right' amount of space.

17:07:53linuxstb_Nico_P: I would make Rockbox allocate the buffer based on the size specified in the WPS - meaning a reboot is needed when the user changes WPSs.

17:15:17lostlogiclow_light: fixed size, but on the audio buffer a couple of hundred bytes not matters
17:15:20linuxstb_The point is that you don't have a fixed number of metadata buffers (currently 32 on swcodec).
17:16:18linuxstb_Apparently it's the "norwegian language course problem"...

17:20:24pondlife;-)
17:20:24lostlogicmyzar???
17:20:39pondlifeBad joke, read ALL the IRC logs
17:21:04pondlifeAnyway, can I suggest that either you or lowlight document the proposed buffer format before too soon...
17:21:20lostlogicpondlife: well that's just it
17:21:26pondlifeI personally want rid of as much of the tracks structure as possible!
17:21:29lostlogicour proposed formats differ fundamentally
17:21:46pondlifeSo lets have a format war
17:21:48lostlogicpondlife: rid of it? I just want to move it as-is onto the buffer
17:22:05pondlifeWe'll want to keep a start pointer for each track at least.
17:22:35low_lightlinuxstb_, lostlogic: But you are saying the static metadata buffer is of variable size determined at boot depending on the features loaded enabled...
17:22:55low_light...so how can you have a fixed size buffer for the "other tracks"
17:23:41tokyotouristwhen i used "Create Playlist" it also scanned the contents of my Recycle Bin, is this a bug or a feature ?
17:24:18linuxstb_You can have variable-sized buffers (variable in terms of having or not having optional components like cuesheets and album art), one for each track in the audio buffer.
17:24:23pondlifeI'm imagining an audio buffer where nothing is fixed size - it's all serialised, and each bit of info is prefixed by a header.
17:25:03pondlifeWe can then just decide whether the buffering bothers with the album art data or not, depending on the config.
17:25:22pondlifeThe playback code will then be a buffer parser.
17:25:34pondlifeDoes any of that waffle make sense?
17:26:41pondlifeBut the key is getting this documented, then we can have one person/group work on the buffering, and another person/group on the playback/unbuffering.
17:26:45linuxstb_pondlife: Yes, but we need one static buffer to store the metadata for the currently playing track - we don't want the complication of leaving it in the audio buffer, and dealing with moving it around.
17:27:24pondlifeWhy not just have a pointer to it in the buffer? I don't see the extraction being particularly slow.
17:27:43linuxstb_What happens when you're playing a track larger than the buffer?
17:28:04pondlifeGood point!
17:28:26pondlifeI suppose you're right; either that or we need to be able to scroll a window within the buffer . urgh.
17:28:49pondlifeWhat about next track info - that too?
17:29:00 Quit GodEater ("CGI:IRC")
17:29:10pondlifeOr is it reasonable to only display that once we've got space to buffer it?
17:29:32low_lightnext track is also a problem when the current track is greater than the buffer
17:29:41linuxstb_That's how it works now - the next track info is only displayed when the start of the next track is buffered.
17:29:42low_lightin my approach
17:29:52*pondlife turns up unannounced after 2 months and spouts off uninformed thoughts.
17:30:22pondlifeI don't think next track is so important - I'd be happy to wait, but I don't DJ with long tracks.
17:30:39 Quit Mouser_X3 (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))

17:31:58tokyotouristthere's a cut menu but i dont see a paste menu, does it exist ? ( i have checked the manual)
17:32:04pondlifeI don't thnk tagcache should be involved with MOB, maybe later as an optimisation?
17:32:29Mikachuif you have tagcache, why reread the metadata at all?
17:32:31low_lightwhat does audio_read_next_metadata do then?
17:33:14tokyotouristyes there is a paste menu :-)
17:34:07lostlogicpondlife: that turning up after 2 months is my behavior :)
17:34:20pondlifeMaybe we should synchronise watches?
17:34:21lostlogicand no, the current code displays next track before it begins buffering that track
17:34:35lostlogicit has a separate read next metadata code path that opens that file just for metadata read at the end of a buffer run
17:35:01pondlifeThat's to ensure that next track info is always available?
17:35:13lostlogicpondlife: at least at the end of a buffer run it is available, yes
17:35:26pondlifeOK, so we need to keep copies of current and next track metadata seperately as well as on buffer?
17:35:38lostlogicas for serializing the data to be placed on the buffer, that doesn't bother me.
17:35:39pondlifeMobcache
17:36:27tokyotouristthanks
17:36:27lostlogicI'm not sure how I feel about the next track, tbh
17:36:30 Part tokyotourist
17:36:41lostlogicbut at least the current
17:36:46pondlifeDo we agree on a basic structure of 2 threads (or similar) - buffering and playback?
17:36:55pondlifei.e. They should be independent
17:37:07lostlogiclet's not change too much at once is my thought on that question
17:37:50pondlifeFair enough. But there is a bug in the current code where buffering stops happening.
17:38:12pondlifeI was hoping to simplify that stuff sooner rather than later.
17:38:58pondlifeMight be metadata related - I think it only happens when you have the full 32 tracks on the go.
17:39:43lostlogicand I do think that there need to be two separate threads, but I also do think (see the ML) that we need to pay attention to how often we're context switching, because 5-7% of processor time is being spent in switch_thread according to whatzizname's profiling results
17:39:58low_lightsince the playback experts are here...why the complicated track skipping routines (wind_forward, wind_backwards)? why when skipping to a track can't you just do buf_ridx = tracks[new_track].buf_idx.
17:40:02lostlogicpondlife: that would make sense, the track structure isn't heavily tested at that edge case
17:40:14 Quit massiveH ("CGI:IRC")
17:40:20lostlogiclow_light: because buf_idx didn't used to exist
17:40:40pondlifeIndeed. It might not be seperate threads needed, but the processes should be running independently (only need to share the free buffer pointer etc.)
17:40:55pondlifeI mean processes in a design sense here.
17:41:25lostlogicYes, I suppose we could call quick_buffer() instead of yield() from codecs if we were so in our minds
17:41:35lostlogicbut then we'd still need to yield at some point for gui threads
17:41:38lostlogicso overall, I vote two threads
17:42:16lostlogiclow_light: I think we can probably do away with that code although the double checking it provides is kinda nice IMO
17:45:15pondlifelostlogic: Would you object if "your" wiki page (SoftwareCodecPlayback) got a big revamp - removal of the bug reports to Flyspray for instance?

19:47:09lostlogicok, so what's the problem? it looks like a reasonable approach to adding acceleration...
19:47:53Mikachuthe scroll wheel accel patch i tried (which was a while back) was very fast
19:48:12lostlogicthis one is configurable... fast faster and fastest...
19:49:26lostlogicSujdik: you can either 1) modify the patch to accelerate less or 2) ask the creator of the patch to do so by posting on flyspray.

19:49:34Sujdikhm

20:28:38amiconnNico_P: Imho album art should be added to all targets except monochrome, but it has 2 prerequisites: (1) metadata on buffer, (2) viewports
20:29:21amiconnWith dithering it shouldn't look too bad on 2 bit
20:29:51Nico_Pamiconn: i'm not sure they're real prerequisites... it can be done without these... not as nicely but still.
20:30:02amiconnImho they are prerequisites
20:30:16amiconnOtherwise it's just another big hack.
20:30:53Nico_Pand i'd like to be able to work on other things without having to keep thoses patches in sync while i wait for these things that never seem to come
20:30:57*Llorean relearns never to admit in the forums he knows how to patch.
20:31:35Nico_Pi am willing to make the changes needed to adapt my code to new features though
20:32:04Lloreanamiconn: Why is viewports a prereq? I understand MoB, but since it's treated as images currently are anyway, viewports is only nice for the text constraints.
20:32:32Nico_PLlorean: thanks, that was going to be my next point :)
20:33:11amiconnLlorean: Without viewports aa is either an ugly hack, or almost useless
20:33:24Nico_Pamiconn: i agree it's a bit of a hack without MoB but why keep it out of SVN when it can be disabled so easily ?
20:33:31lostlogicamiconn: yeah, I don't know who's patch I was linked to either :-P
20:33:33amiconnHow would you place (scrolling) text besides the aa image?
20:33:34LloreanHow is it a hack without viewports?
20:33:56LloreanOn the Gigabeat and Sansa at least, you've got enough vertical screen space to not have to ask that question.
20:34:02amiconnYOu need to constrain the text line somehow
20:34:13amiconnLlorean: Rockbox is multiplatform...
20:34:16Nico_Pamiconn: there is a patch to do that
20:34:21LloreanOn the other targets you can simply put non-scrolling text such as battery level, volume, playlist position, etc next to it.

20:34:50amiconnYou can't build a solid house on shaky foundations
20:34:50Nico_Pamiconn: "scrolling margins"... it never got into CVS/SVN because of viewports
20:35:09LloreanWhile there are some limitations regarding its usability before Viewports (I don't disagree that viewports make it a lot more functional) I think that they shouldn't be holding it out.
20:35:22Nico_Pamiconn: solid foundations are too long and too hard to build :)

20:51:06lostlogiclowlight: so speaking of MoB and design discussion: I disagree with your approach and I disagree with pondlife's proposal.
20:51:28lostlogicYour approach doesn't make adding album art to the buffered data easy, it makes adding album art almost as hard as putting the tag info on.
20:51:53lostlogicPondlife's serialization would overcomplicate the code and prevent direct memcpys between buffer and static buffer so I also don't like that.

20:53:26amiconnSome small things can go in parallel

20:55:04Nico_PI think a pointer to these in the id3 struct is the way to go
20:55:48Nico_Pit's what i've wanted from the start
20:55:57lowlightcuesheets are more like subtracks which would also extend to flacs with embedded cuesheets and multistream oggs
20:56:06amiconnhmmmmm
20:56:14Nico_Plowlight: and MP4 files with chapters
20:56:20linuxstb_Let's not support chained oggs though...
20:56:28lowlightright
20:56:49linuxstb_IIUC, they require you to scan the whole file to find the individual tracks - they are simply "cat *.ogg > chained.ogg".
20:57:00Nico_Pall that waould need changes to support all these would be the parsing func
20:57:03*amiconn will probably implement another gfx feature along the way to viewports: transparent bitmaps (for all targets, not just 16 bit colour)
20:57:14Mikachu8bit transparent?
20:57:18amiconnIt's needed, and it should be quite simple
20:57:25amiconnMikachu: Nah, 1 bit
20:57:25Mikachuerr, i guess it might not be exactly 8
20:57:33Mikachuah
20:57:39Nico_Pamiconn: what about 32 bit ?
20:57:45Nico_Pwould that be possible
20:57:47Nico_P?
20:57:48amiconn?
20:57:56linuxstb_None of our targets have 32-bit LCDs...

20:58:16Nico_Pcan't it be done by software ?
20:58:27*amiconn doesn't understand
20:58:29lostlogichmmmmmmmm. lowlight my argument is weakened, but I still believe that the track structs should die so that we don't have the potential of 'running out' of tracks.
20:58:34Mikachualpha transparency is much slower than 1bit transparency

21:00:46Nico_Plostlogic: is lowlight suggesting something different from "1 static id3 struct and the others in buffer" ?
21:01:04lostlogicNico_P: difference between id3 struct and track struct
21:01:16amiconnIt's rather weird: the H300 lcd controller is capable of true 18 bit, but is set to 16 bit (by some id pins, i.e. not changeable by software)
21:01:24Nico_Pah indeed, sorry
21:01:36lostlogicNico_P: his implementation keeps the existing track structs (all 32 of them) other than the id3 info, I think we need to do away with them

21:01:53lostlogic'just'

21:04:57lowlightNico_P: my approach was to simply replace the fixed size id3.id3v2buf[]. That's the limiting factor when get_metadata() retrieves data.
21:05:37lostlogicand unlike when I tried it, his way works :-P
21:05:53lowlightI don't see why this approach can't still be used even if the track structs are on the buffer too
21:06:51lostlogiclowlight: it sould just be unnecessary to do yours if the track struct is going, would result in double work
21:06:51linuxstb_But do we need two static buffers? One for the next track?
21:07:11lostlogiclinuxstb_: it (mutter) seems so
21:07:19amiconnlinuxstb: Only if we want to provide next track info at all times
21:07:39amiconnOn swcodec we currently do so, on hwcodec we never did
21:08:04linuxstb_Yes, I didn't realise until a couple of hours ago that swcodec makes a special effort to do that.
21:08:16amiconnOn hwcodec, next track info is only available if the start of the next track is already buffered
21:08:31lostlogicI like it.
21:09:01linuxstb_Yes, so do I. It feels like a bug (from a user's point of view) if the next-track info is only sometimes shown.
21:09:29amiconnImho that's enough (especially since next-track-in-buffer is a lot more likely on swcodec due to the bigger ram), but then I usually don't use next track info in wps
21:09:33lostlogichaha, I was saying that I like the lazy way of not trying too hard :-D
21:09:35lowlightcould also make a get_metadata(quick) which skips stuff like AA, etc. and can fit into a smaller static buffer
21:09:53 Quit robin0800 ("IceChat - Its what Cool People use")
21:10:00lostlogiclowlight: that's what I was thinking, maybe have a next track id3 tag info only area
21:10:43linuxstb_Doesn't swcodec also only buffer a small amount first, then waits, then fills the buffer completely?
21:11:00amiconnHmm, it seems that metadata on buffer and playback engine unification are somewhat related...
21:11:06Mikachuthat sounds like something it might do after a skip
21:11:28lostlogiclinuxstb_: I think that behavior was killed off at some point
21:11:29lowlightlinuxstb_: lostlogic took that out
21:11:37linuxstb_Hurray :)
21:11:43lostlogic:)
21:11:45amiconnMight be a good thing to tackle at devcon if that's not too far into the future...
21:11:53lostlogicyeah, let's have a devcon.
21:12:03lostlogicI'm bored and I have vacation days to kill.
21:12:36amiconnIiuc, it would be helpful to have all metadata handling in one place, somewhere under apps/
21:12:37 Quit Thundercloud (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
21:13:05amiconnBut that's not currently possible because of the hwcodec playback engine being firmware code, and needing id3 handling
21:13:21lostlogicI assume any separate files (aa, cuesheet) are specified in the 'normal' tag info?
21:13:53Lloreanlostlogic: Right now I think they're just done by filename matching.
21:14:17lostlogicLlorean: mph
21:14:20linuxstb_amiconn: Do you think a worthwhile first step would be to separate the hwcodec playback code more cleanly into apps and firmware code?
21:14:42amiconnperhaps

21:15:47Mikachumake a poll :)
21:15:47The-CompilerHello
21:16:13lowlightlostlogic: I guess I don't see track-structs-on-the-buffer as intimately related to metadata-on-the-buffer...
21:16:29lowlight...the track struct contains an id3 struct with either a fixed size buffer for metadata (currently id3v2buf[300]) or the ability to have arbitrary one (as in my patch)
21:18:43relaxedRunning rockbox on my 5.5 Gen 30gb ipod and it's froze on the "Do not disconnect" screen. It's not flashing. Anyone know how I can restart it? Holding play or play + menu does nothing.
21:18:46lostlogiclowlight: if I were to do track structs on buffer after you do your patch, we end up having two sets of buffered metadata management code to handle pulling the current track metadata off of the buffer and adjusting pointers
21:18:57linuxstb_relaxed: Hold MENU+SELECT
21:19:12The-Compilerrelaxed: Try to hold select and menu

21:30:21amiconnlostlogic, lowlight: Imho metadata on buffer while keeping the track struct array doesn't make much sense
21:30:46MikachuThe-Compiler: firmware/target/arm/ipod/button-target.h change POWEROFF_BUTTON
21:31:00The-CompilerMikachu: Ok
21:31:08The-CompilerLet's do this
21:31:12lostlogicamiconn: OTOH, lowlight's dynamically sized metadata is a nice touch and if I later combine that with tracks-on-buffer it'd be hawt
21:31:17amiconnIf the track structs are on buffer as well, it will solve a nasty issue which we currently need to code around, _and_ it will drecrease ram usage for the standard cases
21:32:03amiconnThat's one reason (without aa, it'd be the main reason) why I want metadata on buffer
21:32:22*linuxstb_ agrees with amiconn
21:33:01amiconnIt's the so-called "norwegian language course problem" (insert your favourity foreign language if you want)
21:33:09 Quit Thundercloud_ (Read error: 145 (Connection timed out))
21:33:27amiconnLots of small tracks will currently use up all metadata slots before the buffer is full
21:33:57lostlogicamiconn: yes. we definitely need both, the question of the moment is: is it worth it for lowlist to do MoB before TSoB
21:34:03amiconnWe had reports of this happening on archos with 2MB ram - and the limit on archos is 16 tracks (!)
21:34:10lostlogicamiconn: holy crap
21:34:59amiconnNow imagine what happens if the metadata slots are exhausted before the buffer is even above the low watermark...
21:35:21lostlogicmy head hurts.
21:35:36The-CompilerMikachu: Now the new line is "#define POWEROFF_BUTTON BUTTON_PLAY|BUTTON_SELECT", right?
21:35:44amiconnNot that this is a likely case, but you never know what kind of ideas users come up with
21:36:12lostlogichahaha
21:36:44amiconnlostlogic: Btw, the effect of the "norwegian language course problem" on archos is rather harmless
21:37:01amiconnIt doesn't crash, it just repeats the 16th track over and over
21:37:18amiconnA single manual forward skip resolves it
21:37:56lostlogicamiconn: I believe that on swcodec it's supposed to just buffer a new track as soon as one plays, but in actuality there is some bug around the wrap detection currently
21:37:56amiconn(of course the next 16 tracks might trigger the effect again)

22:26:35Bagder"worth the effort" is 100% subjective
22:26:35ender`and to decide if it's worth: encode one CD to both flac/wv and mp3 and listen to both encodes
22:26:58ender`if you can hear the difference, it's probably worth the effort.

22:28:06linuxstb_I use FLAC for all my CDs, but mainly because I've never got around to evaluating lossy codecs. With FLAC I know for sure I'm not losing any quality.
22:28:10Bagderthe question is just if you can hear the diff and if you want the bigger sizes
22:28:35Bagderand feel like re-encoding all your CDs due to that diff

23:15:58amiconnI think it's because this cpu has better performance to power consumption ratio because it's more modern
23:16:02combrainsBagder, talk to debaunched_sloth if you want to know more about the runtimes - I believe he is the one doing all the optimaisations
23:16:41Bagderno need for that
23:17:15amiconnHmm, and then it's still very possible that we're doing something wrong wrt hardware control on ipods
23:17:25combrainsI just figured you might like to know the secret to our good runtimes ;)
23:17:30Bagderamiconn: I'd say it is likely
23:17:50Nico_Pand i'm waiting for my gigabeat to arrive at home :)
23:17:51Bagdercombrains: I can read the code...
23:18:07Nico_Pit will probably even arrive whan i get back from my ski vacataion
23:18:22Nico_Pat the same time as my gf comes to visit me
23:18:27Nico_Pisn't life great .
23:18:29Nico_P?
23:18:57amiconnOne thing is that we don't do disk poweroff on ipods yet
23:19:10tchanthe ebayers are selling refurbished gigabeat F40's for $150 US, including the shipping to usa addresses
23:19:20amiconnAnd thinking back on how much that helped on the H1x0...
23:20:22Soaphow much did it help?
23:20:26*amiconn wonders how rockbox runtime and of runtime relate on the H10
23:20:38amiconnSoap: Was like 15->20 hours iirc
23:20:52Soapvery significant.
23:21:27amiconnYes. Still not as much as sending the usbotg controller to sleep helped on the H300 :)
23:21:30Soapso is the drive powered but not spinning currently on the ipods?
23:21:33amiconnyes
23:21:44amiconnIt's in standby all the time, drawing a few mA
23:21:51Soapwhat is that power doing? playing cards?
23:23:09amiconnThe drive electronics consumes it, while waiting for a command to arrive

23:25:49barrywardellit's about 60-70% of runtime
23:26:00barrywardellOF runtime
23:26:26barrywardellthe OF gets about 14-16 hours

23:30:28Arathisah, select=none. sad, but that solves my problem (in a way)

23:32:23 Quit relaxed (Remote closed the connection)
23:33:01Arathisbarrywardell: the problem is the h10 has one key less than a gameboy because of the needed menu key
23:33:54Arathisbarrywardell: I think sound slowness is caused by missing cpu core support?
23:34:41barrywardelli don't think rockboy has been particularly optimised for the h10 yet
23:34:54barrywardellusing the second core may be one possible way to optimise

23:35:47perldiverdoes the cuesheet patch still conflict with the album art?
23:36:50perldiverand btw, i like the inv approach as well
23:37:00linuxstb_perl|wtf: It doesn't look like brickmania has been adapted for the gigabeat yet - it just seems to compile by chance, and I think uses the bitmaps for the 220x176 screens.

23:38:02perldiveri always thought menu screen is more important than paddles though :P
23:38:26Nico_Pperldiver: the patches probably conflict when applied but they are totally separate features so you can make them work together
23:38:37perldiveris he in need for bitmaps by any chance, i can create him plenty
23:38:39Nico_Pyou just need to apply the rejects manually
