00:27:13 | Zagor | there. all the left-side menus should be correct now ('svn builds' instead of 'cvs builds') |
00:27:25 | linuxstb | \o/ |
00:28:46 | Mikachu | sed -i s/cvs/svn/ /dev/hda |
00:28:59 | Zagor | hehe |
00:29:22 | linuxstb | Is 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? |
00:29:40 | Mikachu | it moves down half a line |
00:29:50 | Mikachu | like there was an extra <br> after svn builds |
00:29:51 | Zagor | doesn't move for me in opera |
00:30:11 | Mikachu | actually i think the spacing between every heading increases |
00:30:14 | Zagor | however 'manual' moves up half a line |
00:30:33 | Mikachu | i don't think anyone will stop using rockbox because of it |
00:30:48 | Zagor | looks like the menu in twiki pages has larger spacing |
00:31:07 | Mikachu | the boxes at the bottom also have wildly different spacing both above and below |
00:31:07 | linuxstb | The wiki html seems to have extra empty paragraph elements in the menu - <p /> |
00:31:16 | argonel | n1s: i'll write the driver myself if necessary |
00:31:37 | Zagor | linuxstb: weird |
00:32:32 | linuxstb | It seems every blank line in the main website's html has a <p /> in the wiki... |
00:34:05 | Zagor | indeed. the wiki template parser is doing a bit more than we ask of it... |
00:34:20 | linuxstb | Very helpful. |
00:36:12 | Zagor | hmm, our preprocessor is inserting blank lines here and there. and then the wiki parser converts them into <p />. sed to the rescue! |

00:45:19 | amiconn | midkay: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/TWiki/TWikiDocGraphics Relatively easy to find... |
00:45:38 | TerrorByte | Can someone tell me how to actually use a patch? |
00:45:44 | midkay | amiconn: ah, thanks. i did try a few variations of that, neither worked... |
00:45:47 | TerrorByte | Just point me in the right direction? |
00:45:57 | aliask | TerrorByte: You using windows or linux? |
00:46:17 | TerrorByte | Windows. |
00:46:22 | aliask | Got cygwin? |
00:46:23 | TerrorByte | I want to try the Rockboy patch for the H10 20 GB. |
00:46:24 | Zagor | there, wiki menu is properly spaced again. clearing cache now. |
00:46:32 | Zagor | amiconn: yikes, that's a lot of icons! |
00:46:36 | linuxstb | TerrorByte: Follow these links - http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/DocsIndex#For_Developers |
00:46:43 | TerrorByte | Err no. |
00:46:58 | amiconn | midkay: From an arbitrary editing form, click "More formatting help" at the bottom. In the popup window there's a link to the doc graphics |
00:47:20 | aliask | TerrorByte: To apply a patch you need to be able to compile the source code |
00:47:21 | TerrorByte | I see. |
00:47:33 | amiconn | (near the bottom) |
00:48:02 | TerrorByte | I'm lost already. |
00:48:03 | midkay | amiconn: 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. |
00:48:14 | aliask | TerrorByte: 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") |
00:48:43 | TerrorByte | Pretty badly? |
00:48:49 | TerrorByte | Can you guide me through this? |
00:49:00 | aliask | Not really, I'm going to be leaving in about 5 mins |
00:49:00 | Llorean | TerrorByte: You can't just wait for the patch to be officially included? |
00:49:15 | Llorean | TerrorByte: 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. |
00:49:19 | aliask | TerrorByte: This is likely to take you over an hour. |
00:49:36 | TerrorByte | Ah. |
00:49:37 | TerrorByte | I see. |
00:49:46 | TerrorByte | Is there any way you can apply the patch and send me the files? |
00:50:05 | aliask | Sure, which patch, which target? |
00:50:11 | linuxstb | But compiling your own build is a skill worth learning - it gives you lots of options for customising Rockbox yourself. |
00:50:15 | TerrorByte | If that's not a possibility, I will wait for it to be oficially included. |
00:50:15 | TerrorByte | Okay. |
00:50:26 | TerrorByte | I need the H10 20 GB. |
00:50:29 | TerrorByte | Patch is the rockboy patch. |
00:50:29 | TerrorByte | Hold on, lemme get link. |
00:50:55 | Llorean | TerrorByte: You really should just learn to do it yourself. |
00:50:55 | TerrorByte | akaias: http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/?getfile=13081 |
00:51:02 | Llorean | You've been in here asking for patches before. |
00:51:10 | TerrorByte | No I haven't. |
00:51:24 | TerrorByte | I wanted a patch for multiple keys. |
00:51:33 | TerrorByte | Or just something done about that.... |
00:51:38 | Llorean | You wanted it to be coded for you that time. |
00:51:46 | Llorean | But it's still an aspect of the same thing, simply compiling your own build. |

00:53:24 | TerrorByte | It's just that this is always what's brought up. |
00:53:28 | TerrorByte | Well whatever. |
00:53:44 | TerrorByte | If nothing can be done, I'll wait. |
00:53:57 | Llorean | What'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. |

00:54:34 | | Quit entheh ("^~") |
00:54:41 | TerrorByte | Much appreciated. |
00:54:49 | aliask | Wiki search is broken |
00:54:56 | aliask | Uh, how do you do a svn checkout? |
00:55:06 | aliask | svn co svn://svn.rockbox.org/trunk/rockbox? |
00:55:24 | Zagor | aliask: ow. examining. |
00:55:28 | preglow | safetydan: why not just commit that? |
00:55:28 | Llorean | svn co svn://svn.rockbox.org/trunk foldername |
00:55:29 | Llorean | I think |
00:55:43 | Zagor | you can skip foldername if you want it called 'rockbox' |
00:55:50 | midkay | hmm. @ 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? |
00:55:54 | safetydan | preglow, commit what? The partial patch? Because AFAIK, it will break all older voice and translation files |
00:56:01 | Llorean | Zagor: If you don't type a foldername, it ends up in a folder named trunk, actually. Or it did for me. |
00:56:05 | preglow | safetydan: why, that's a good point |
00:56:19 | Zagor | Llorean: oh, right. it uses the last "dir name" of the path. |
00:56:19 | midkay | or maybe a different design, but i think the current nested ifdef mess is pretty annoying to deal with. |
00:56:24 | linuxstb | midkay: Do you mean duplicate plugins for each target? |
00:56:41 | Zagor | aliask: svn co svn://svn.rockbox.org/rockbox/trunk rockbox |
00:56:43 | Llorean | Zagor: Not a real problem, honestly, but 'trunk' isn't the most descriptive if you've put it somewhere not clearly just for Rockbox stuff. :) |
00:56:51 | preglow | midkay: can't say i like the sound of it |
00:57:00 | aliask | Zagor: Thanks |
00:57:10 | midkay | linuxstb: i mean one entry per supported plugin on a per-target basis.. |
00:57:16 | midkay | any other ideas? :) |
00:57:17 | Zagor | I forget the order of 'trunk' and 'rockbox' myself |
00:57:46 | aliask | At least it's a LOT simpler than CVS |
00:57:51 | linuxstb | midkay: Fix all the plugins which don't work on certain platforms? :) |
00:57:59 | aliask | I'd have to go to the wiki to copy the lines out every time. |
00:58:05 | midkay | linuxstb: haha. something a tad easier? ;) |
00:58:12 | Zagor | aliask: hehe |
00:58:20 | Llorean | linuxstb: There are a couple plugins only useful on certain targets, though |
00:58:28 | | Quit funky ("leaving") |
00:58:44 | preglow | i really don't like duplicating stuff that don't need duplicating |
00:59:23 | midkay | what 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? |
00:59:52 | preglow | i like that better |
00:59:57 | Llorean | You 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 |
01:00:24 | preglow | amiconn: i don't really think so either, but it could be better |
01:00:28 | linuxstb | amiconn: I agree, but it's starting to get messy again... |
01:00:34 | linuxstb | Didn't you clean it up recently? |
01:00:35 | preglow | it is |
01:00:35 | midkay | amiconn: it's way more than it needs to be, i think.. everything's way nested and overlapping and duplicated... |
01:00:45 | preglow | i've managed to mess it up a couple of times |

01:02:01 | midkay | Llorean 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.. |
01:02:25 | linuxstb | keymapping isn't enough to determine if the plugin works. |
01:02:28 | JdGordon | #else #error "blaa" |
01:02:47 | midkay | but will that keep the compiler going on to the next file? |
01:02:50 | Zagor | that makes it a lot more difficult to see which plugins are supported. you'd have to open every source file. |
01:02:59 | midkay | that's true.. |
01:02:59 | bluebrother | counting the errors caught by the build system will get fun then ;-) |
01:02:59 | Llorean | That's very true |
01:03:03 | Mikachu | make will stop on errors unless you run make -k |
01:03:12 | Mikachu | in which case it will continue even if it gets a "real" error |
01:03:18 | midkay | maybe i'll play with SOURCES and i'll post it up for review if i come up with anything. |
01:04:14 | | Part Llorean |
01:04:49 | linuxstb | Hmm, the #ifndef HAVE_MMC around alpine_cdc.c seems an odd choice... |
01:05:43 | amiconn | The comment explains why |
01:05:47 | linuxstb | I know... |
01:05:55 | amiconn | It's not 100% clean, I know |
01:06:00 | midkay | indeed.. that's how the sources file seems to me.. quite hacky. |
01:06:09 | amiconn | Imho "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" applies here |
01:06:26 | midkay | i don't wanna fix it, just improve it :) |
01:06:30 | Mikachu | if it's broke, give it money |
01:06:39 | amiconn | There is the general split: all-targets/charcell/bitmap |
01:06:52 | | Quit bluebrother ("Leaving") |
01:06:57 | | Quit mirak ("Ex-Chat") |
01:07:00 | amiconn | Then there are some inevitable special cases, which could be grouped together |
01:07:15 | safetydan | Anyone 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 |
01:07:18 | amiconn | And then there are those cases which should be fixed by adapting the plugin... |
01:07:22 | safetydan | seems a bit wordy |
01:08:19 | amiconn | Brickmania for the sansa (needs graphics) |
01:08:45 | amiconn | Metronome for the sim (needs timer simulation or alternate code in the plugin) |
01:09:23 | amiconn | Calendar needs adapting to all the rtc targets (currently recorder only) |
01:09:44 | linuxstb | Maybe simply adding some indentation would clarify it. |
01:10:08 | Mikachu | i suggested indenting the ifdefs in the code once and everyone looked at me like i was from mars |
01:10:23 | linuxstb | I like mars. |
01:10:37 | Mikachu | i like twix betters |
01:10:41 | Mikachu | -s |
01:10:46 | amiconn | fireworks, xobox: Why are these not possible on the archos lcd? What about rockpaint on non-colour targets? |
01:11:04 | Zagor | safetydan: if anything, I think it's better to be a little to wordy than a little too cryptic |
01:11:21 | Zagor | s/to/too |
01:11:29 | preglow | amiconn: problem with stuff like that is that it can end up broken quite quickly |
01:11:35 | Zagor | euhh, well you get it |
01:11:35 | safetydan | Zagor, true. I'll just keep going with it as it is then. |

01:16:11 | * | amiconn prefers the way ifdefing is done in plugins/SOURCES *much* over the way in firmware/SOURCES |
01:16:29 | | Quit linuxstb_ ("CGI:IRC") |
01:16:44 | Mikachu | that #ifndef SIMULATOR is way too persistant all over the source tree |
01:16:51 | Mikachu | the simulator needs more stubs and less polluting the source |
01:17:02 | preglow | amiconn: forget it, bad example |
01:17:07 | | Quit TerrorByte ("CGI:IRC (EOF)") |
01:17:08 | amiconn | In firmware/SOUCRES, many source files are referenced multiple times, *very* easy to overlook one place |
01:17:19 | Mikachu | add arbitrary amount of politeness to those two sentences |
01:18:16 | amiconn | I'd rather have each source file only listed once, and shuffle the ifdefs around, than the other way round |
01:18:53 | JdGordon | firmware/SOURCES is neat now.. it used to be alot worse imo |
01:18:56 | amiconn | Mikachu: stubs won't help with cases like metronome, but then it should be possible to simulate the timer... |

01:19:21 | amiconn | JdGordon: Uh, you really think so? |
01:19:37 | JdGordon | yeah |
01:20:07 | amiconn | firmware/SOURCES is ~600 lines, more than 4 times of plugins/SOURCES, and I had to add my ata asm file _9_ times (!!) |
01:20:23 | amiconn | Pretty damn ugly, imho |
01:22:07 | midkay | i 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 |
01:22:25 | linuxstb | I agree with amiconn - the duplication in firmware/SOURCES isn't nice. |
01:22:56 | amiconn | Maybe it depends *what* you are doing in there, but I find it way easier to work with plugins/SOURCES than with firmware/SOURCES |
01:23:17 | amiconn | Erm, insert an 'on' where you see fit |
01:24:07 | midkay | long or ugly are too extreme, we need a good compromise :) |
01:24:19 | Mikachu | "in need of improvement" |
01:24:33 | JdGordon | amiconn: I think the ata files are in the wrong place in f/SOURCEs anyway which is why you dont like it |
01:24:37 | amiconn | Hehe, imho firmware/SOUCRES is both long and ugly, while plugins/SOUCRES is nothing of both |
01:25:10 | JdGordon | the 2 files are used differently... firmware is much more player dependant than plugins |
01:25:16 | JdGordon | you cant really compare them |
01:25:44 | midkay | plugins/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. |
01:26:00 | amiconn | Mikachu: One idea would be that on the firmware/ side of things, the sim could be a target of its own |
01:26:07 | amiconn | firmware/target/simulator |
01:26:24 | amiconn | ..checking for features from the config files where necessary |
01:26:25 | Zagor | midkay: the only real alternative is to have a long a complex ifdef statement for each plugin. |
01:26:36 | Mikachu | that makes sense to me |
01:26:51 | Zagor | with &&, ||, ! and lots of () |
01:27:02 | | Quit toffe ("MegaIRC v3.27 http://ironfist.at.tut.by") |
01:27:47 | midkay | Zagor: imo that sounds way nicer.. you can see what target each plugin is being built for and no confusing ifdefs.. |
01:27:53 | amiconn | This way the sim could even evolve into a nice player application, defining its own features if so desired |
01:28:12 | amiconn | I know that some people already like to use the sim as a music player |
01:28:17 | Zagor | midkay: I think you vastly underestimate the complexity of the needed ifdefs... |
01:28:28 | Mikachu | midkay: the point is to express plugins as a function of abilities rather than specific targets |
01:28:32 | midkay | hmm? |
01:28:39 | Mikachu | midkay: so when you get a new target, it automatically gets the right plugins |
01:28:44 | midkay | Mikachu: but a lot of plugins go against that. |
01:28:51 | Mikachu | i was speaking ideallistically :) |
01:29:01 | midkay | you'll still have to update all the plugins to use the new target, so you can *easily* modify one line in plugins/SOURCES. |
01:29:33 | Zagor | the "features, not targets" philosophy is important |
01:29:54 | amiconn | Imho one of the advantages of rockbox is that it's really multi-platform. |
01:30:08 | amiconn | All plugins should be adapted to all targets if technically possible |
01:30:16 | JdGordon | unless you add a plugins/SOURCES.target file? so only plugins which work for the tagrte go there? |
01:30:19 | midkay | i agree for sure. but when lots of plugins don't work on targets they should, the ifdefing gets messy and hard to read. |
01:30:36 | Mikachu | midkay: see that as motivation to fix the plugins :) |
01:30:54 | amiconn | If you ifdef every plugin separately, you support porting laziness... and it's rather hard to see which plugins still need adaption |
01:30:54 | Zagor | midkay: the fix is not to throw away the concept |
01:31:21 | linuxstb | Zagor: The "features, not targets" isn't applied in firmware/SOURCES any more... |
01:31:24 | amiconn | ...and you would make the line count explode |
01:31:27 | midkay | well.. i didn't really mean ifdefing each one. |
01:31:55 | midkay | i 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. |
01:32:10 | linuxstb | I wonder why "#ifndef IRIVER_IFP7XX_SERIES /* Temporarily disable plugins for iFP7xx */" isn't at the top of SOURCES? |
01:32:25 | Zagor | linuxstb: 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. |
01:33:23 | amiconn | linuxstb: Looks like the plugins before it are already working on iFP |

02:13:57 | ZenMasterJG | hey 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? |
02:14:13 | ZenMasterJG | (whoops, that came out longer then I expected. Sorry.) |
02:14:18 | amiconn | We do know now what causes the problem, but we don't have a fix yet |

02:36:37 | safetydan | Java 6 made a huge difference to speed of GUI apps if that's a concern. |
02:38:14 | safetydan | ZenMasterJG, on a more practical note, I believe the current rockbox installer gui is written with wxWindows so maybe consider using that. |
02:39:34 | ZenMasterJG | safetydan: Swing isn't that bad, its just the way some people write swing that makes me want to vomit. My last java job involved dealing with the old intern's totally stupid hand-crufted Swing code for the better part of 4 months |

06:07:07 | triplah_ | haha |
06:07:08 | daurnimator | but was low on list of media players |
06:07:21 | daurnimator | i tried all the linux ones |
06:07:26 | triplah_ | i dont get that, it's pretty nifty |
06:07:28 | daurnimator | all were pretty unpolished |
06:07:34 | triplah_ | i converted from banshee/rhythmbox |
06:07:48 | daurnimator | maybe it was lack of codec support? |
06:07:56 | daurnimator | or not supporting album artist tag? |
06:08:16 | triplah_ | quodlibet uses tags heavily, and supports any codec i've come accross, including aac |
06:08:32 | daurnimator | oh well |
06:08:33 | triplah_ | its tagging util is awesome too |
06:08:40 | daurnimator | i've moved to windows and foobar now |
06:08:45 | triplah_ | its reinspired me to tag my whole lib properly |
06:08:57 | triplah_ | ah yeah, foobar would be what i'd use on windows |
06:10:18 | daurnimator | i'm not totally satisfised |
06:10:28 | daurnimator | i've thought about coding my own numerous times |
06:10:33 | daurnimator | but... so much effort |
06:10:40 | triplah_ | yeah totally |

06:13:14 | triplah_ | i looked at the foobar website - something didnt seem right about the gui... nw i know what it was, no columns |
06:14:16 | triplah_ | that search is cool |

06:27:19 | tamacracker | Can anyone help me out? |
06:27:44 | Llorean | tamacracker: Not unless you tell us what problem you're having |
06:27:58 | tamacracker | Basically I have an album that's in MP3 format |
06:28:14 | tamacracker | and I try to copy the folder into my music folder of my mp3 player |
06:28:22 | tamacracker | first it tells me it's not allowed. |
06:28:43 | tamacracker | So I tried to be slick, create a new folder name it the artist's name.. then drag the mp3s into it. |
06:29:15 | tamacracker | After 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 |
06:29:31 | tamacracker | but... it wont play them, it skips the album and goes straight to the next album on the list. |
06:30:13 | | Quit Mouser_X3 (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)) |
06:30:19 | Llorean | tamacracker: Did you properly eject your player? |
06:30:24 | tamacracker | I 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 |
06:30:30 | tamacracker | yep |
06:30:37 | Roan | tamacracker: it sounds like a permissions problem. |
06:30:46 | tamacracker | nah |
06:30:47 | tamacracker | because |
06:30:50 | tamacracker | i tried another album |
06:30:54 | tamacracker | and that had no problem what so ever. |
06:31:18 | tamacracker | the 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. |
06:31:56 | tamacracker | check this out, I delete the album (folder) |
06:31:59 | tamacracker | and recreate another one |
06:32:03 | tamacracker | and for some reason |
06:32:05 | tamacracker | it's still dim. |

06:33:46 | tamacracker | yep |
06:33:55 | tamacracker | i tried highlighting all mp3s |
06:34:01 | tamacracker | and copy them onto the folder |

06:35:07 | JdGordon_ | woot! im done |
06:35:13 | tamacracker | yes |
06:35:22 | tamacracker | this 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. |
06:36:03 | Llorean | Ave you tried using a shorter folder name? |
06:36:22 | tamacracker | yep right now i renamed it to On The Go Back |
06:36:37 | tamacracker | whoa... |
06:36:41 | tamacracker | ok.. |
06:36:46 | tamacracker | now it did it without a problem |
06:36:51 | tamacracker | im gonna see if they'll play now. |
06:37:08 | tamacracker | what i assume is... it either doesn't like long folder names or colon |
06:37:12 | tamacracker | : <- that |
06:37:35 | Llorean | Well, I don't believe :s are allowed in filenames on Fat32... |
06:37:43 | * | Llorean didn't see the colon in there. |
06:37:57 | tamacracker | ah i see |
06:38:08 | tamacracker | yeah so it might just be the ":" |

06:40:00 | tamacracker | beautiful |
06:40:08 | tamacracker | yes Llorean |
06:40:12 | tamacracker | that's exactly what it was |
06:40:17 | tamacracker | it's the ":" |
06:40:24 | tamacracker | it cannot be used in the file name |
06:40:26 | midkay | yay, we should get new brickmania bitmaps tonight.. finally.. :) |
06:40:52 | Llorean | midkay: Mine including a titlescreen that doesn't go all wonky on the gigabeat while you're at it? |
06:40:55 | tamacracker | Llorean lol thanks for your time :P |
06:41:17 | Llorean | midkay: 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 |
06:41:31 | midkay | Llorean: gotcha.. i'll have a look at that. |
06:41:41 | midkay | working on 5G support now, it should work, just need to test.. compiling. |
06:42:03 | Llorean | I 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. :) |
06:42:14 | midkay | that'll be easy enough :) |
06:42:29 | midkay | ohhh yeaah... 5G fullscreen baby.. :D |
06:42:54 | midkay | better 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.. |
06:43:00 | midkay | too bad i suck at this game :) |
06:43:10 | Llorean | Hehehe |
06:43:15 | Llorean | The game's kinda easy on the Gigabeat. |
06:43:18 | Llorean | Because the screen is so tall. |
06:43:46 | midkay | yeah, makes sense.. it's a bit harder with large bitmaps on the 5G actually. |
06:44:41 | midkay | gaaaaah. |
06:44:46 | midkay | it's happening agaiiin... |
06:45:11 | midkay | hmm. |
06:45:30 | midkay | i 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. |
06:45:46 | midkay | maybe because they're considerably larger and thus stick down farther than the 220x176 ones. |

07:44:23 | amiconn | JdGordon: Your conclusion was a bit quick. The fact that no player owner complained doesn't mean that there are no more player users. It's just that rockbox on the archoses is very stable, so normal users don't upgrade often |
07:44:40 | amiconn | I guess that most of them still run 2.5 |
07:45:22 | tamacracker | i just upgraded |

08:16:33 | amiconn | morning LinusN :) |
08:16:49 | amiconn | Again using the crappy bouncer? (or what that was) |
08:16:58 | JerryLange | i have a question about what ipod linux says about rockbox. |
08:16:58 | Llorean | midkay: If there's one thing I like, it's telling people my opinion on things. Hehe. |
08:17:08 | midkay | Llorean: haha, fun it is :) |
08:17:41 | LinusN | amiconn: no, i just closed the wrong window |
08:17:48 | JerryLange | ipod linux says this on there 5.5 page. |
08:17:58 | JerryLange | Rockbox |
08:17:59 | JerryLange | iPodPatcher has been updated to make firmware partitions that ca |
08:18:01 | JerryLange | n load the Apple OS. You can now install Rockbox using http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IpodInstallationBeta. |
08:18:19 | JerryLange | i didnt think rockbox ran on the 5.5gen yet? |
08:18:37 | LinusN | JerryLange: it runs on the 30GB 5.5G |
08:18:46 | LinusN | but not the 80gb |
08:19:11 | JerryLange | oh yes. sorry forgot. but they dont really say what version it runs on. this should be corrected. |
08:19:22 | Llorean | JerryLange: It's their page. Our page makes it perfectly clear. |
08:20:01 | Llorean | If it's a wiki page of theirs that says it though, you could go ahead and clear that up. |
08:20:09 | JerryLange | yes i know. ive been reading alot about the progress (what progress there is) of the 5.5g 80gig. |
08:22:42 | midkay | Llorean: how about these? http://img342.imageshack.us/img342/3901/brickmaniapads320x240x1vm8.png |
08:23:05 | midkay | they're defined bumpers but also cast a quite slight glow onto the paddle.. |
08:23:08 | Llorean | midkay: That I like. |
08:23:35 | midkay | i think that would look cool on-target (it's kinda hard to tell on white).. *tests* |

08:27:59 | midkay | Llorean: 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. |
08:28:22 | Llorean | JerryLange: Depends on what the actual license is on the font. |
08:29:12 | amiconn | hmm..... |
08:29:40 | amiconn | tomal wasn't right that mpa.codec is the same when building with -Os instead of -O |

08:33:29 | Llorean | There's an awful lot of fonts at rasher's site, we could just stick in a similarly sized one. |

08:42:34 | GodEater | that guy/girl(?)'s posts in the forum are virtually unreadable because of over usage of the word "like" |
08:43:40 | midkay | who now? |
08:43:53 | amiconn | Whoah, 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. |

09:51:11 | JerryLange_ | is there any chance somebody can kick JerryLange that is my name but i got disconnected. |
09:51:31 | markun | are you registered? |
09:51:46 | markun | then you can use nickserv to kick it |
09:52:11 | JerryLange_ | yes |
09:53:11 | JerryLange_ | yes im registered, but it says i have to be an operator in this room for it to work |
09:53:36 | markun | JerryLange: do "/query nickserv" and then type "help" in that window |
09:54:03 | markun | (ghost is the option you are looking for) |
09:54:45 | Slasheri | JerryLange_: just wait a couple of minutes and it will disconnect |
09:55:12 | Bagder | a couple being around 20 iirc |
09:55:25 | Slasheri | hmm, that's huge |
09:55:29 | Bagder | yes |

10:07:13 | midgey | xaviergr mentions it in the logs |
10:08:18 | midkay | haha.. while searching for preglow's i found this: |

10:53:10 | Mikachu | DataGhost: http://pathlang.sourceforge.net/ is similar |
10:54:12 | kclaf | hmmm dan_a, that's source code from "rockbox-20070109\flash\bootloader\bootloader.c" |
10:54:27 | linuxstb | kclaf: Which bootloader are you trying to modify/ |
10:54:28 | linuxstb | ? |
10:54:40 | kclaf | ipod5G |
10:54:49 | linuxstb | Then change bootloader/ipod.c |

10:55:07 | linuxstb | It may not be in the source tarball - in which case get it via SVN. |
10:55:40 | kclaf | oh yea, that's why I didnt get the file |
10:55:49 | kclaf | i'll checkout the SVN for it |
10:55:56 | kclaf | thanks for your help linuxstb |
10:56:16 | linuxstb | kclaf: But you know the hold switch now starts the original firmware? |
10:56:34 | kclaf | yes I know but I have some stupid car audio player |
10:56:57 | kclaf | that works with AIR |
10:57:13 | linuxstb | But once you start the Apple firmware once, does it ever reboot? |
10:57:13 | kclaf | and i dont want to have to press HOLD all the time |
10:57:25 | linuxstb | I thought the Apple firmware just slept itself. |
10:57:47 | kclaf | yes, but if I let my ipod for more than 17hours it shuts down |
10:58:09 | kclaf | so it would start into rockbox when it boots |
10:58:14 | linuxstb | And then it reboots? I thought it just hibernated... |
10:58:35 | kclaf | I dont think so, because I can see the black screen with the apple |
10:58:40 | Bger | guys, hi! |
10:58:53 | linuxstb | kclaf: But I thought that was a different black screen with the apple... |
10:59:05 | Bger | sorry for the offtopic but does anybody know any linux console icq client other than centericq ? |
10:59:27 | * | linuxstb afk |
10:59:39 | Mikachu | Bger: any console irc client + bitlbee does the trick |
10:59:47 | kclaf | hmmm, well, you know what, ill reflash my ipod with non-patched rockbox |
10:59:57 | kclaf | and see how it behaves |
11:00 |
11:00:01 | Bger | bitlbee ? |
11:00:23 | kclaf | that's an irc-im gateway |
11:00:36 | Bger | aha |
11:00:48 | kclaf | it allow to chat into MSN, OSCAR, JABBER like you would do on IRC |
11:00:55 | kclaf | +s |
11:00:57 | DataGhost | and also 0.22 seconds on google :) |
11:01:16 | lachlan1212 | Supposedly some company has hacked the gaming cabilities of the 5/5.5G iPods and have gotten one of their games to run in the Apple OS |
11:01:34 | lachlan1212 | With "supposedly" being the key word |
11:01:54 | DataGhost | I can play gameboy games on my 5.5G... nothing new there? :) (just not in the apple os :P) |

11:02:17 | lachlan1212 | Still, if this is indeed true its pretty big news |
11:03:56 | Bagder | it is? |
11:04:01 | lachlan1212 | And don't you have an 80GB iPod DataGhost? Heh you can't play anything at the moment |
11:04:13 | DataGhost | ? |
11:04:16 | DataGhost | I have an 80GB iPod |
11:04:24 | DataGhost | and cyboid looks just like doom |
11:04:54 | lachlan1212 | Have you got RB running on it though? |
11:05:01 | DataGhost | no |
11:05:28 | lachlan1212 | Cyboid does look similar to Doom, but other games will follow it |
11:05:53 | DataGhost | but errrm... I don't know if you're a regular in here or not |
11:06:03 | DataGhost | but I'd say you work at bobbeetec :P nofi |
11:06:21 | lachlan1212 | I'm a regular ojn the forum, not really in IRC much |
11:06:48 | pondlife | LinusN: around? |
11:06:52 | DataGhost | hm ok |
11:07:10 | lachlan1212 | and all I'm saying is that now the 3rd party devs can make iPod native games (they couldn't before) |
11:07:17 | DataGhost | maybe I'm just a little paranoid about some people :) |
11:07:32 | bluebrother | Bger: you could also try micq |
11:07:41 | Bger | bluebrother ah, yes |
11:07:58 | Bger | i'm having fscking problems with my X eating up the CPU ... |
11:08:02 | pondlife | LinusN: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/PortPinAssignments#PCF50606_GPO seems to be wrong, as Matthias has noted. |
11:08:06 | DataGhost | well lachlan1212 at least the site doesn't look 100% legit to me.. but again I haven't seen the actual game on mine |
11:08:17 | DataGhost | the part that put me off a bit was the 'Real, honest user reviews' |
11:08:21 | DataGhost | with the emphasis on real and honest |
11:08:28 | lachlan1212 | Yeah the side does look a tad.. shady |
11:08:37 | | Quit hcs ("Leaving") |
11:08:54 | lachlan1212 | Theres a thread on the IPL forums for beta testing this game http://ipodlinux.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=22259 |
11:09:06 | DataGhost | I usually see the same sort of links in penis enlargement spammails :) |
11:09:22 | lachlan1212 | Not that it makes it any more legit |
11:09:35 | lachlan1212 | You open those emails;)? |
11:09:49 | pondlife | Also, is it known that the wiki search is down? |
11:10:50 | DataGhost | sometimes when my pc is being slow lachlan1212 |
11:10:56 | | Quit pondlife ("disconnected has pondlife") |
11:10:59 | DataGhost | I hit the [Spam] button but it takes a bit :P |
11:11:45 | DataGhost | by the way, the 'screenshots' look really odd |
11:11:56 | DataGhost | they are higher than wide |
11:12:06 | DataGhost | and the 5(.5)G screen is wider than high |
11:12:07 | lachlan1212 | yeah, thats what I was about to say |
11:12:10 | Mikachu | they're from cell phones |
11:12:20 | lachlan1212 | they look like they've been distorted |
11:12:32 | DataGhost | hm, heh |
11:12:40 | lachlan1212 | in the IPL thread, the dev mentioned that the screens are all from cellphone targets |
11:12:46 | lachlan1212 | which would explain it |
11:12:50 | Mikachu | looks like java3d |
11:13:15 | | Join GodEater [0] (i=c2cbc95c@gateway/web/cgi-irc/ircatwork.com/x-c1554fb53bd6e3c0) |
11:13:37 | lachlan1212 | It's odd that they obviously have the ability to create halfway decent 3d graphics but cant slap together a decent website layout |
11:14:14 | DataGhost | anyway, since I've got a 5.5G I'll just send them an e-mail to 'betatest' |
11:14:41 | DataGhost | with the site being all shady and the game looking a lot like doom I'd almost say it's a video :P |
11:14:45 | lachlan1212 | shoot me a pm on the forums if they do end up actually senidng you anything |
11:14:51 | DataGhost | yeah |
11:15:08 | lachlan1212 | i'm 'lachlan' on the forums- if you hadn't already guessed |
11:15:16 | DataGhost | also odd that you can code such a game with 2 people in under a month |
11:15:25 | DataGhost | because the reviews are apparently from september |
11:15:36 | DataGhost | oh wait, the 5G has been around for longer than that, right? |
11:15:45 | lachlan1212 | yes |
11:15:50 | lachlan1212 | but not the game cabability |
11:15:58 | DataGhost | hm |
11:16:03 | lachlan1212 | that was only introduced with the 5.5 G's, around september |
11:16:14 | DataGhost | so they wrote that game in a month. with 2 people. |
11:16:24 | lachlan1212 | it seems the game was developed for the Ngage, which has been around for a couple year |
11:16:28 | GodEater | looks more like quake than doom to me |
11:16:36 | lachlan1212 | and they are merely porting it to the iPod |
11:16:43 | GodEater | it's very beige |
11:16:48 | lachlan1212 | s/year/years |
11:16:58 | | Quit gtkspert (Remote closed the connection) |
11:17:46 | DataGhost | anyway, this is one of the things I'm not believing until I see it |
11:17:46 | * | DataGhost sends request |
11:17:54 | lachlan1212 | have you watched the youtube vid yet? does it provide anything conclusive? |
11:18:57 | DataGhost | I watched the google vid |
11:18:59 | DataGhost | is it different? |
11:19:00 | lachlan1212 | I'm on a arguably the slowest computer in existance at the moment, so I can't watch them myself |
11:19:13 | lachlan1212 | i doubt it would be different |
11:19:28 | lachlan1212 | did the video show the ipod and the person hand controlling the game? |
11:19:29 | Mikachu | well, google video provides the original nonrecompressed .avi file |
11:19:43 | Mikachu | yes |
11:19:47 | DataGhost | apart 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 :) |
11:19:55 | DataGhost | except for me being very skeptical |
11:20:15 | lachlan1212 | thats understandable |
11:20:15 | DataGhost | and some could say the same about my iDoom-on-80GB-video :) |
11:20:34 | DataGhost | however they can easily test that now |
11:20:49 | lachlan1212 | its also questionable as to how they managed to make it run without it being verified by iTunes, which all games must be to play |
11:21:00 | GodEater | "easily" assuming they're au fait with ext3-ing their iPod ;) |
11:21:36 | lachlan1212 | haha, I was wondering how'd I'd missed the '80Gb now functional' post |
11:22:26 | GodEater | yeah - that's iDoom - not rockdoom |
11:22:51 | lachlan1212 | so people are able to boot iPL now? |
11:23:24 | GodEater | only if their iPod is entirely ext3 formatted |
11:23:35 | GodEater | DataGhost fixed the bootloader |
11:24:01 | GodEater | and the kernel reads 1024 byte sector ext3 filesystems |
11:24:08 | lachlan1212 | Bless his ghostly soul |
11:24:13 | DataGhost | well entirely isn't needed, but it just can't read fat32 and hfs+ yet :P |
11:24:18 | GodEater | fat32 and hfs+ support are still unavailable though |
11:24:24 | DataGhost | so this time people with macpods are out of luck >:) |
11:24:34 | lachlan1212 | was hfs+ ever supported? |
11:24:46 | GodEater | for iPL ? yes |
11:24:57 | lachlan1212 | ahh, fair enough |
11:24:58 | DataGhost | I have no clue, but for the 5.5G 30GB the instructions previously said 'this will work on the 30GB macpods only' |
11:25:15 | DataGhost | and my quick fix on the linux kernel enabled iPL for the 30GB winpods, too |
11:25:33 | GodEater | think most of the original iPL devs were all OSX ppl - so they made HFS+ support the priority |
11:25:39 | GodEater | winpod support came later |
11:25:49 | DataGhost | but 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 |
11:26:01 | DataGhost | I'm not so sure about that GodEater |
11:26:04 | lachlan1212 | Does IPL run as poorly on the 5.5G's as it does on the 5 G's? |
11:26:05 | GodEater | is that Tempel ? |
11:26:07 | DataGhost | I converted my iPod into a macpod aswell |
11:26:13 | DataGhost | the mac partition table is different |
11:26:19 | DataGhost | so it read the partitions properly without modification |
11:26:23 | DataGhost | well, only to the ata code |
11:26:36 | GodEater | ah |
11:26:39 | DataGhost | the main reason it didn't work on the winpods was the MBR having the 'wrong' values |
11:26:49 | GodEater | that would make sense |
11:26:56 | DataGhost | yep :) |
11:27:11 | DataGhost | lachlan1212 I don't know.. I think so |
11:27:22 | GodEater | define "poorly" :) |
11:27:23 | DataGhost | Let me look up a few vids... I think you mean podzilla2 by the way |
11:27:26 | DataGhost | with 'poorly' |
11:27:38 | DataGhost | since the mainloop claims 150% cpu or something like that ;) |
11:28:42 | DataGhost | http://de.dataghost.com/ipl/5.5G-80GB-iDoom.avi http://de.dataghost.com/ipl/Loader2-3.avi |
11:28:48 | DataGhost | I think those pretty much cover it |
11:28:53 | lachlan1212 | I 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 |
11:29:42 | lachlan1212 | those vids will probably play at 3 FPS on my computer but I'll give them a try |
11:30:02 | GodEater | what are you running on? A ZX-81 ? |
11:30:07 | DataGhost | well, they're from my camera... 320x240 |
11:30:10 | DataGhost | iPods should run it :D |
11:30:32 | lachlan1212 | Honestly, an iPod has more CPu than my computer |
11:31:00 | lachlan1212 | those things people strap to their belts that count how many steps they take have more grunt than my piece of crap |
11:31:51 | lachlan1212 | clock radio, watches, calculators- you name it- all are faster |
11:32:05 | lachlan1212 | s/radio/radios |
11:32:13 | DataGhost | hehe |
11:32:33 | lachlan1212 | i think it has 64MB of RAM |
11:32:48 | DataGhost | yes it should have, according to even wikipedia |
11:32:53 | DataGhost | but only 32 is detected on mine |
11:32:59 | DataGhost | and when I force mem=64M it refuses to boot |
11:33:25 | lachlan1212 | this is your iPod, or your computer? |
11:33:30 | DataGhost | hm? |
11:33:40 | DataGhost | you mean the zzzzzzzzzz-sound? or the thing you see on the vid? |
11:34:00 | GodEater | he means the memory comment |

11:34:19 | lachlan1212 | no no, I was talking about my computer- it has 64MB or RAM- it is a piece of crap |
11:34:24 | DataGhost | I have *slightly* more than 64MB ram in my pc |
11:34:31 | Mikachu | <- 1024MB |
11:34:35 | * | GodEater remembers when 64MB was a lot in a PC |
11:34:36 | DataGhost | really, how can you live with 64MB |
11:34:42 | DataGhost | I'm using 916 at this very moment |
11:34:49 | amiconn | LinusN: Any news regarding 1K sector support? |
11:34:55 | lachlan1212 | I havn't downloaded your video yet, its at about 30% |
11:35:01 | DataGhost | ok |
11:35:03 | * | GodEater 's first PC had only 4MB. |
11:35:08 | DataGhost | ha |
11:35:13 | DataGhost | my first had 640kB :) |
11:35:19 | GodEater | show off |

11:35:30 | DataGhost | 4,77MHz 8086 |
11:35:32 | GodEater | BillG : "640KB should be enough for anyone" |
11:35:36 | LinusN | amiconn: unfortunately not, i haven't found time to work on it |
11:35:37 | DataGhost | which could be clocked to 9,54MHz with a nifty program |
11:36:00 | lachlan1212 | I'm hoping I can install Xubuntu or something similar on it and it will spring to life again |
11:36:08 | DataGhost | heh |
11:36:20 | DataGhost | I hope you're not using windows vista on that thing now :P |

11:36:55 | DataGhost | is it down? :o |
11:37:03 | DataGhost | ah ok |
11:37:05 | GodEater | been deleted as far as I can see |
11:37:16 | GodEater | shame - it always made me laugh |
11:37:19 | DataGhost | the author probably tried gentoo and saw that it wasn't as bad :P |
11:37:34 | GodEater | −−omg-optimized !!! |
11:37:49 | GodEater | oh it was definitely tongue in cheek anyway |
11:37:53 | GodEater | he didn't really mean gentoo was bad |
11:38:08 | GodEater | he was just poking fun at the people who thought it was the be all and end all of linux distros |
11:38:28 | GodEater | most of whom had no clue what they were talking about |
11:38:47 | GodEater | :rolleyes: |
11:39:14 | lachlan1212 | hahahaha that is hilarious |
11:39:34 | GodEater | despite the fun being poked at it there - it *is* a good system |
11:39:41 | GodEater | just don't expect miracles :) |
11:39:58 | GodEater | for low end hardware like yours - I recommend E17 for your desktop lachlan |
11:40:07 | lachlan1212 | to make matters worse, I havn't been able to defrag this Win 98 trainwreck for over 3 years because it stalls when I try |
11:40:09 | GodEater | even XFCE is a bit heavyweight these days |
11:40:17 | DataGhost | it does work great for my epia, by the way |
11:40:23 | GodEater | so Xubuntu might not be as great as you hope |
11:40:26 | DataGhost | it's got only 64kB of cache so I can optimize for that |
11:40:32 | lachlan1212 | so gentoo is optimised for peices of crap? |
11:40:43 | lachlan1212 | i thought it was a full distro |
11:40:48 | GodEater | gentoo itself is as optimised / unoptimised as you build it |
11:41:00 | DataGhost | you can optimize it for anything |
11:41:13 | lachlan1212 | ahh, I'm not that savvy with computers |
11:41:32 | DataGhost | it's just that you really start to notice the advantage of that on uncommon systems with, for example, a very small cache |
11:41:49 | lachlan1212 | I meant in the way that Xubuntu is potimised for slow computers- it is intended to run with mininal ram/proccesing speed |
11:42:08 | GodEater | I think even Xubuntu will struggle on a 64MB machine.... |
11:42:14 | lachlan1212 | s/potmised/optomised |
11:42:17 | GodEater | but you can only try :) |
11:42:36 | lachlan1212 | yeah, I really should set fire to this thing |
11:42:46 | lachlan1212 | but no money for a new computer:( |
11:42:48 | GodEater | it's certainly an easier install than gentoo if you're scared of techy things htough |
11:42:56 | GodEater | though gentoo's installer *has* improved |
11:43:16 | GodEater | anyway - that's enough OT talk from me |

11:44:53 | GodEater | scorche: with a desktop environment too (i.e. X+whatever) ? |
11:45:02 | scorche | fluxbox |
11:45:06 | lachlan1212 | i 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 |
11:45:43 | hcs | I have a 2.4 GHz Pentium 4 and 768 MB of memory, but windows 98 can't manage it too efficiently |
11:46:17 | amiconn | Btw, what was the problem with sdl and framebuffer again? |
11:46:35 | amiconn | Maybe we could get away without X altogether for the vmware image |
11:47:53 | scorche | amiconn: that was one of the things changed from the first version to the second |

11:58:59 | amiconn | Hmm, maybe this was unclear |
11:59:05 | amiconn | I would want to get rid of X |
11:59:09 | scorche | what i was meaning was that it was changed *from* that |
11:59:17 | scorche | yes, but why? |
11:59:18 | amiconn | ...for size considerations |
11:59:40 | scorche | ah |
11:59:53 | Mikachu | X is only a couple of MBs |
11:59:56 | amiconn | Also, this fluxbox is worse than pure commandline imho, and a real gui system is too big |
12:00 |
12:00:15 | scorche | what is so wrong with fluxbox? |
12:00:20 | amiconn | I do run a linux VM myself, but it's 2GB + |
12:02:13 | scorche | amiconn: why do you think fluxbox is worse that pure commandline? |
12:02:59 | lachlan1212 | has anyone heard of the new AOL player coming out this year? |
12:03:25 | lachlan1212 | http://digitalmusic.weblogsinc.com/2007/01/11/aols-new-wi-fi-enabled-media-player/ it runs LINUX, has wi-fi and bluetooth |
12:04:18 | *** | Saving seen data "./dancer.seen" |
12:04:37 | GodEater | amiconn: 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. |
12:04:41 | lachlan1212 | and i daresay, if you bashed it against an ipod repeatedly it would come out thwe winner |
12:04:59 | lachlan1212 | s/thwe/the |
12:05:22 | Mikachu | GodEater: the point would be to run the sim outside X |
12:05:54 | Mikachu | lachlan1212: you can still sign the linux kernel to lock it down |
12:06:26 | scorche | GodEater, amiconn: would switching to xfce satisfy your dislike of fluxbox? |
12:06:35 | lachlan1212 | Mikachu: what exatly do you mean? |

12:09:46 | Mikachu | lachlan1212: digital keys and all that |
12:10:14 | Mikachu | anyone can change the wm once they installed the vm for themselves |
12:10:18 | GodEater | I'm not bothered one way or the other. I don't personally like fluxbox - but it's far from a bad choice |
12:10:41 | GodEater | at least you didn't choose ratpoison or something even more weird. |
12:10:53 | scorche | i actually didnt choose fluxbox |

12:12:08 | scorche | agreed, but it is still relatively light-weight, and if other people would vastly prefer it... |
12:12:21 | lachlan1212 | Mikachu: at the risk of appearing even stupider than I am, I still don't follow- are you talking about the linux based mp3 player? |
12:12:29 | GodEater | well I don't actually *use* the VM image - so I don't think my opinion counts |
12:12:29 | Mikachu | lachlan1212: yeah |
12:12:50 | Mikachu | i only host it :) |
12:13:12 | scorche | then again, it is meaningless to change when people can do that for themselves |
12:13:15 | bluebrother | scorche: use evilwm *fg* |
12:14:04 | GodEater | doesn't the current set of instructions for using the VMware image assume fluxbox in the "how to start a terminal" bit ? |

12:14:42 | GodEater | Mikachu: I'd have thought so |
12:14:47 | Mikachu | lachlan1212: a way to make sure only binaries built by the manufacturer runs on the device |
12:15:01 | scorche | well, regardless, there is no reason to change from fluxbox... |

13:26:55 | Mikachu | i was just thinking from the constrained flash area perspective |
13:27:14 | Bagder | imho, we need to drop the flashing of archoses |
13:27:35 | Bagder | or make "light" versions for them |

13:29:03 | scorche | Mikachu: not in the sense of light that he is thinking of, i'm sure |
13:29:47 | Bagder | scorche: like that, yes |
13:30:27 | scorche | honestly, it is a nice thing to keep around and work towards...saving binary size benefits all targets (ignoring target specific optimizations) and rombox provides more motivation towards it |

16:20:03 | Nico_P | Moos: so if it were to be commited i'd have to make some changes but basically it's almost ready |
16:20:24 | Moos | okies |
16:20:45 | Moos | just wondering (I don't use AA anymore) |
16:21:25 | pixelma | markun: I didn't find any other than the the mentioned pix-chacago that could be used right away if that's what you mean. I'm even not sure what I could do with it (which font size it could actually end up if I start editing it). |
16:21:27 | LinusN | i think AA should wait until we have in-buffer storage |
16:21:30 | lostlogic | Nico_P: did you do full metadata on buffer for it? |
16:21:34 | lostlogic | ah, I'll take that for a no. |
16:21:47 | Moos | LinusN: same as cueeshit, no? |
16:21:50 | Nico_P | lostlogic: indeed it's no |

16:23:51 | lostlogic | okokok anyone want to come over to my place in Chicago this weekend and stand over me with a whip until I write MoB? |

16:24:41 | Nico_P | LinusN: it does nothing unless there's the WPS tag |
16:24:53 | linuxstb_ | LinusN: AA won't be enabled for mono targets, so that's not an issue. Cuesheet support would work fine on HWCODEC, so that will increase codesize. |
16:24:53 | LinusN | Nico_P: i mean code size |

16:26:12 | Nico_P | ok so HAVE_LCD_COLOR it is |
16:26:12 | Moos | lostlogic: no luck for this try then :-) |
16:26:26 | LinusN | or rather, targets with too little memory :-) |
16:26:47 | linuxstb_ | We could enable for LCD_DEPTH > 1 |

16:54:28 | markun | tokyotourist: I think you should first reboot to get back to your rombox kernel or they will probably reset again on reboot |
16:54:40 | pixelma | tokyotourist: 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) |
16:56:03 | linuxstb_ | 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. |
16:56:08 | lostlogic | low_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... |
16:56:34 | tokyotourist | hmm, after accidently "Rolo'ing" it, i did restart the player, but it didn't restore my settings, thats why I reloaded my config file |
16:57:17 | tokyotourist | which is why i was wondering if i had to reflash it |
16:57:19 | lostlogic | low_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? |
16:58:27 | lostlogic | I 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. |

17:01:47 | low_light | lostlogic: not really sure what you mean (about metadata.c). it loads the metadata from a file into tracks[].id3 and uses it's id3v2buf to store string data |

17:03:42 | Nico_P | linuxstb_: what you say implies there would be a limit to the max size of album art |

17:07:53 | linuxstb_ | 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. |
17:08:08 | Nico_P | linuxstb_: ah, yes, forgot about that |

17:12:03 | linuxstb_ | The current track's data is in the static buffer, and the data for all the other tracks is in the audio buffer - and copied to the static buffer when they are played. |
17:12:12 | lostlogic | what he said. |
17:13:16 | | Join Mouser_X [0] (n=mouser_x@67.110.120.159.ptr.us.xo.net) |
17:14:54 | low_light | got that...but what's the point if you continue to use a fixed size id3v2buf for the "other tracks" |
17:15:17 | lostlogic | low_light: fixed size, but on the audio buffer a couple of hundred bytes not matters |
17:15:20 | linuxstb_ | The point is that you don't have a fixed number of metadata buffers (currently 32 on swcodec). |
17:16:18 | linuxstb_ | Apparently it's the "norwegian language course problem"... |
17:16:39 | tokyotourist | wondering if .rockbox wouldn't be a better place for rockbox.iriver file, instead of root |
17:17:12 | lostlogic | tokyotourist: I believe it's allowed to be placed in there. |
17:17:15 | linuxstb_ | tokyotourist: You can move it there if you want - the bootloader looks in both plavces. |
17:17:29 | tokyotourist | ah thats nice |
17:17:54 | linuxstb_ | But be careful - it looks in .rockbox first, so don't forget to always move it after unzipping a new build. |
17:18:04 | Arathis | barrywardell: did I hear right, that there's a rockboy patch for h10? |
17:18:07 | tokyotourist | thanks |

17:19:16 | * | pondlife hears the sound of buffered metadata |
17:19:28 | * | lostlogic hugs pondlife |
17:19:41 | pondlife | lostlogic: Don't hug - document! |
17:19:44 | linuxstb_ | Arathis: I think so, check the patch comments. |
17:19:55 | lostlogic | want to come over and make me code this weekend? :-P |
17:20:16 | pondlife | lostlogic: Hmm, you've been coding with Myzar?? |
17:20:24 | pondlife | ;-) |
17:20:24 | lostlogic | myzar??? |
17:20:39 | pondlife | Bad joke, read ALL the IRC logs |
17:21:04 | pondlife | Anyway, can I suggest that either you or lowlight document the proposed buffer format before too soon... |
17:21:20 | lostlogic | pondlife: well that's just it |
17:21:26 | pondlife | I personally want rid of as much of the tracks structure as possible! |
17:21:29 | lostlogic | our proposed formats differ fundamentally |
17:21:46 | pondlife | So lets have a format war |
17:21:48 | lostlogic | pondlife: rid of it? I just want to move it as-is onto the buffer |
17:22:05 | pondlife | We'll want to keep a start pointer for each track at least. |
17:22:35 | low_light | linuxstb_, lostlogic: But you are saying the static metadata buffer is of variable size determined at boot depending on the features loaded enabled... |
17:22:55 | low_light | ...so how can you have a fixed size buffer for the "other tracks" |
17:23:41 | tokyotourist | when i used "Create Playlist" it also scanned the contents of my Recycle Bin, is this a bug or a feature ? |
17:24:18 | linuxstb_ | 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. |
17:24:23 | pondlife | I'm imagining an audio buffer where nothing is fixed size - it's all serialised, and each bit of info is prefixed by a header. |
17:25:03 | pondlife | We can then just decide whether the buffering bothers with the album art data or not, depending on the config. |
17:25:22 | pondlife | The playback code will then be a buffer parser. |
17:25:34 | pondlife | Does any of that waffle make sense? |
17:26:41 | pondlife | But 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. |
17:26:45 | linuxstb_ | 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. |
17:27:24 | pondlife | Why not just have a pointer to it in the buffer? I don't see the extraction being particularly slow. |
17:27:43 | linuxstb_ | What happens when you're playing a track larger than the buffer? |
17:28:04 | pondlife | Good point! |
17:28:26 | pondlife | I suppose you're right; either that or we need to be able to scroll a window within the buffer . urgh. |
17:28:49 | pondlife | What about next track info - that too? |
17:29:00 | | Quit GodEater ("CGI:IRC") |
17:29:10 | pondlife | Or is it reasonable to only display that once we've got space to buffer it? |
17:29:32 | low_light | next track is also a problem when the current track is greater than the buffer |
17:29:41 | linuxstb_ | That's how it works now - the next track info is only displayed when the start of the next track is buffered. |
17:29:42 | low_light | in my approach |
17:29:52 | * | pondlife turns up unannounced after 2 months and spouts off uninformed thoughts. |
17:30:22 | pondlife | I 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)) |
17:30:48 | low_light | I thought next track info is loaded even if the next track is not loaded |
17:30:49 | | Quit foolsh (Connection reset by peer) |
17:30:58 | linuxstb_ | low_light: Not afaik. |
17:31:11 | Mikachu | not even with tagcache? |
17:31:44 | * | linuxstb_ shrugs |
17:31:58 | tokyotourist | there's a cut menu but i dont see a paste menu, does it exist ? ( i have checked the manual) |
17:32:04 | pondlife | I don't thnk tagcache should be involved with MOB, maybe later as an optimisation? |
17:32:29 | Mikachu | if you have tagcache, why reread the metadata at all? |
17:32:31 | low_light | what does audio_read_next_metadata do then? |
17:33:14 | tokyotourist | yes there is a paste menu :-) |
17:34:07 | lostlogic | pondlife: that turning up after 2 months is my behavior :) |
17:34:20 | pondlife | Maybe we should synchronise watches? |
17:34:21 | lostlogic | and no, the current code displays next track before it begins buffering that track |
17:34:35 | lostlogic | it has a separate read next metadata code path that opens that file just for metadata read at the end of a buffer run |
17:35:01 | pondlife | That's to ensure that next track info is always available? |
17:35:13 | lostlogic | pondlife: at least at the end of a buffer run it is available, yes |
17:35:26 | pondlife | OK, so we need to keep copies of current and next track metadata seperately as well as on buffer? |
17:35:38 | lostlogic | as for serializing the data to be placed on the buffer, that doesn't bother me. |
17:35:39 | pondlife | Mobcache |
17:36:27 | tokyotourist | thanks |
17:36:27 | lostlogic | I'm not sure how I feel about the next track, tbh |
17:36:30 | | Part tokyotourist |
17:36:41 | lostlogic | but at least the current |
17:36:46 | pondlife | Do we agree on a basic structure of 2 threads (or similar) - buffering and playback? |
17:36:55 | pondlife | i.e. They should be independent |
17:37:07 | lostlogic | let's not change too much at once is my thought on that question |
17:37:50 | pondlife | Fair enough. But there is a bug in the current code where buffering stops happening. |
17:38:12 | pondlife | I was hoping to simplify that stuff sooner rather than later. |
17:38:58 | pondlife | Might be metadata related - I think it only happens when you have the full 32 tracks on the go. |
17:39:43 | lostlogic | and 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 |
17:39:58 | low_light | since 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. |
17:40:02 | lostlogic | pondlife: that would make sense, the track structure isn't heavily tested at that edge case |
17:40:14 | | Quit massiveH ("CGI:IRC") |
17:40:20 | lostlogic | low_light: because buf_idx didn't used to exist |
17:40:40 | pondlife | Indeed. It might not be seperate threads needed, but the processes should be running independently (only need to share the free buffer pointer etc.) |
17:40:55 | pondlife | I mean processes in a design sense here. |
17:41:25 | lostlogic | Yes, I suppose we could call quick_buffer() instead of yield() from codecs if we were so in our minds |
17:41:35 | lostlogic | but then we'd still need to yield at some point for gui threads |
17:41:38 | lostlogic | so overall, I vote two threads |
17:42:16 | lostlogic | low_light: I think we can probably do away with that code although the double checking it provides is kinda nice IMO |
17:45:15 | pondlife | lostlogic: Would you object if "your" wiki page (SoftwareCodecPlayback) got a big revamp - removal of the bug reports to Flyspray for instance? |
17:45:56 | pondlife | It would be nice if the design stuff could be put on the wiki, even if it's vague. Need to start with the goals. |
17:46:35 | | Quit tvelocity ("ΑποχώÏησε") |

17:47:22 | lostlogic | pondlife: and yes KISS is definitely something that we can still strive for a lot more of in the playback code |

18:10:39 | Mikachu | Simpson: i think so |

18:17:34 | tanq | not to start a language flame war, but just because something is written and a particular language, and is slow, doesn't mean its the language. Sometimes it is just poor architecture and bad code. |

19:49:34 | Sujdik | hm |
19:51:35 | lostlogic | Sujdik: I'm guessing here, but it's probably not too hard of a modification to make it behave as you'd expect, some change of multiplier or something. |

20:28:38 | amiconn | Nico_P: Imho album art should be added to all targets except monochrome, but it has 2 prerequisites: (1) metadata on buffer, (2) viewports |
20:29:21 | amiconn | With dithering it shouldn't look too bad on 2 bit |
20:29:51 | Nico_P | amiconn: i'm not sure they're real prerequisites... it can be done without these... not as nicely but still. |
20:30:02 | amiconn | Imho they are prerequisites |
20:30:16 | amiconn | Otherwise it's just another big hack. |
20:30:53 | Nico_P | and 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 |

20:31:35 | Nico_P | i am willing to make the changes needed to adapt my code to new features though |
20:32:04 | Llorean | amiconn: 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. |
20:32:32 | Nico_P | Llorean: thanks, that was going to be my next point :) |
20:33:11 | amiconn | Llorean: Without viewports aa is either an ugly hack, or almost useless |
20:33:24 | Nico_P | amiconn: 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 ? |
20:33:31 | lostlogic | amiconn: yeah, I don't know who's patch I was linked to either :-P |
20:33:33 | amiconn | How would you place (scrolling) text besides the aa image? |
20:33:34 | Llorean | How is it a hack without viewports? |
20:33:56 | Llorean | On the Gigabeat and Sansa at least, you've got enough vertical screen space to not have to ask that question. |
20:34:02 | amiconn | YOu need to constrain the text line somehow |
20:34:13 | amiconn | Llorean: Rockbox is multiplatform... |
20:34:16 | Nico_P | amiconn: there is a patch to do that |
20:34:21 | Llorean | On the other targets you can simply put non-scrolling text such as battery level, volume, playlist position, etc next to it. |

20:34:50 | amiconn | You can't build a solid house on shaky foundations |
20:34:50 | Nico_P | amiconn: "scrolling margins"... it never got into CVS/SVN because of viewports |
20:35:09 | Llorean | While 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. |
20:35:22 | Nico_P | amiconn: solid foundations are too long and too hard to build :) |
20:35:25 | Llorean | If it got in, it might increase the incentive for some other people to get viewports working. ;) |

20:40:25 | Nico_P | it's just that i have AA ready now and it's a shame to hold it when it already works quite nicely |

20:51:05 | amiconn | Nico_P: Unfortunately I have to agree, playback.c is really discouraging :( |
20:51:06 | lostlogic | lowlight: so speaking of MoB and design discussion: I disagree with your approach and I disagree with pondlife's proposal. |
20:51:28 | lostlogic | Your 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. |
20:51:53 | lostlogic | Pondlife's serialization would overcomplicate the code and prevent direct memcpys between buffer and static buffer so I also don't like that. |

20:52:31 | amiconn | hmm :/ |
20:52:38 | lowlight | in my MoB approach, get_metadata() should look for cover art and add it to the metadata buffer. why is that hard? |
20:53:13 | * | amiconn thinks he should concentrate on one big thing first: viewports |
20:53:26 | amiconn | Some small things can go in parallel |
20:53:28 | lowlight | in my MoB approach, get_metadata() should also look for cuesheets and add that to the metadata buffer. |
20:53:28 | lostlogic | lowlight: ah, I wasn't fully thinking in your thinking. yes, that works. |
20:53:55 | lostlogic | hmmmmmm |

20:55:04 | Nico_P | I think a pointer to these in the id3 struct is the way to go |
20:55:48 | Nico_P | it's what i've wanted from the start |
20:55:57 | lowlight | cuesheets are more like subtracks which would also extend to flacs with embedded cuesheets and multistream oggs |
20:56:06 | amiconn | hmmmmm |
20:56:14 | Nico_P | lowlight: and MP4 files with chapters |
20:56:20 | linuxstb_ | Let's not support chained oggs though... |
20:56:28 | lowlight | right |
20:56:49 | linuxstb_ | IIUC, they require you to scan the whole file to find the individual tracks - they are simply "cat *.ogg > chained.ogg". |
20:57:00 | Nico_P | all 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) |
20:57:14 | Mikachu | 8bit transparent? |
20:57:18 | amiconn | It's needed, and it should be quite simple |
20:57:25 | amiconn | Mikachu: Nah, 1 bit |
20:57:25 | Mikachu | err, i guess it might not be exactly 8 |
20:57:33 | Mikachu | ah |
20:57:39 | Nico_P | amiconn: what about 32 bit ? |
20:57:45 | Nico_P | would that be possible |
20:57:47 | Nico_P | ? |
20:57:48 | amiconn | ? |
20:57:56 | linuxstb_ | None of our targets have 32-bit LCDs... |
20:58:04 | Mikachu | or 24 |
20:58:16 | Nico_P | can't it be done by software ? |
20:58:27 | * | amiconn doesn't understand |
20:58:29 | lostlogic | hmmmmmmmm. 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. |
20:58:34 | Mikachu | alpha transparency is much slower than 1bit transparency |

21:00:37 | amiconn | Llorean:Na, not really |
21:00:43 | lowlight | lostlogic: I agree...as i said i wasn't up to the task 'cause that seemed like a big change to playback...although if we are keeping a static current track struct it's not so big |
21:00:46 | Nico_P | lostlogic: is lowlight suggesting something different from "1 static id3 struct and the others in buffer" ? |
21:01:04 | lostlogic | Nico_P: difference between id3 struct and track struct |
21:01:16 | amiconn | It'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) |
21:01:24 | Nico_P | ah indeed, sorry |
21:01:36 | lostlogic | Nico_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 |
21:01:49 | lostlogic | and apparently we do agree about that, it's just a matter of me actually doing it. |

21:03:08 | | Quit midgey () |
21:04:57 | lowlight | Nico_P: my approach was to simply replace the fixed size id3.id3v2buf[]. That's the limiting factor when get_metadata() retrieves data. |
21:05:37 | lostlogic | and unlike when I tried it, his way works :-P |
21:05:53 | lowlight | I don't see why this approach can't still be used even if the track structs are on the buffer too |
21:06:51 | lostlogic | lowlight: it sould just be unnecessary to do yours if the track struct is going, would result in double work |
21:06:51 | linuxstb_ | But do we need two static buffers? One for the next track? |
21:07:11 | lostlogic | linuxstb_: it (mutter) seems so |
21:07:19 | amiconn | linuxstb: Only if we want to provide next track info at all times |
21:07:39 | amiconn | On swcodec we currently do so, on hwcodec we never did |
21:08:04 | linuxstb_ | Yes, I didn't realise until a couple of hours ago that swcodec makes a special effort to do that. |
21:08:16 | amiconn | On hwcodec, next track info is only available if the start of the next track is already buffered |
21:08:31 | lostlogic | I like it. |
21:09:01 | linuxstb_ | 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. |
21:09:29 | amiconn | Imho 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 |
21:09:33 | lostlogic | haha, I was saying that I like the lazy way of not trying too hard :-D |
21:09:35 | lowlight | could 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") |
21:10:00 | lostlogic | lowlight: that's what I was thinking, maybe have a next track id3 tag info only area |
21:10:43 | linuxstb_ | Doesn't swcodec also only buffer a small amount first, then waits, then fills the buffer completely? |
21:11:00 | amiconn | Hmm, it seems that metadata on buffer and playback engine unification are somewhat related... |
21:11:06 | Mikachu | that sounds like something it might do after a skip |
21:11:28 | lostlogic | linuxstb_: I think that behavior was killed off at some point |
21:11:29 | lowlight | linuxstb_: lostlogic took that out |
21:11:37 | linuxstb_ | Hurray :) |
21:11:43 | lostlogic | :) |
21:11:45 | amiconn | Might be a good thing to tackle at devcon if that's not too far into the future... |
21:11:53 | lostlogic | yeah, let's have a devcon. |
21:12:03 | lostlogic | I'm bored and I have vacation days to kill. |
21:12:36 | amiconn | Iiuc, 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)) |
21:13:05 | amiconn | But that's not currently possible because of the hwcodec playback engine being firmware code, and needing id3 handling |
21:13:21 | lostlogic | I assume any separate files (aa, cuesheet) are specified in the 'normal' tag info? |
21:13:53 | Llorean | lostlogic: Right now I think they're just done by filename matching. |
21:14:17 | lostlogic | Llorean: mph |
21:14:20 | linuxstb_ | amiconn: Do you think a worthwhile first step would be to separate the hwcodec playback code more cleanly into apps and firmware code? |

21:16:29 | lowlight | ...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) |

21:21:41 | dionoea | amiconn: the issue with rockpaint on non color targets is that the picture buffer is easy to handle/draw to on color targets (each short in the array is a pixel) while it isn't on grey scale targets. (the other issue is that the code is a real mess ... kind of my fault i guess :D) |

21:23:53 | linuxstb_ | dionoea: Rockbox contains lots of drawing functions - in the core or the xlcd lib. |
21:24:06 | dionoea | linuxstb_: but those don't draw in a buffer |
21:24:11 | dionoea | they only draw to the screen |
21:24:17 | linuxstb_ | Then change them... |
21:25:16 | dionoea | anyways, that was just a reply to amiconn's comment :) i don't need rockpaint on a greyscale target :) (and i don't need it on a color target either ... makes me wonder why i ever wrote that (well parts of it)) |
21:25:44 | | Quit Mouser_X3 (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)) |
21:25:57 | lowlight | lostlogic: I guess I don't see where your approach handles metadata besides just changing the size of the id3.id3v2buf to make it big enough for AA, cuesheets, lyrics, user tags, etc |
21:26:21 | lowlight | if it's a fixed size it's wasteful to those who don't use those features |
21:26:59 | The-Compiler | I have a question: Sometimes i press play too long on my iPod in Rockpaint (to move the pen down), then Rockbox shutdowns. Is there a patch, to say Rockbox "don't shutdown if Rockpaint running"? (Sorry for my bad english) |

21:30:21 | amiconn | lostlogic, lowlight: Imho metadata on buffer while keeping the track struct array doesn't make much sense |
21:30:46 | Mikachu | The-Compiler: firmware/target/arm/ipod/button-target.h change POWEROFF_BUTTON |
21:31:00 | The-Compiler | Mikachu: Ok |
21:31:08 | The-Compiler | Let's do this |
21:31:12 | lostlogic | amiconn: OTOH, lowlight's dynamically sized metadata is a nice touch and if I later combine that with tracks-on-buffer it'd be hawt |
21:31:17 | amiconn | If 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 |
21:32:03 | amiconn | That's one reason (without aa, it'd be the main reason) why I want metadata on buffer |
21:32:22 | * | linuxstb_ agrees with amiconn |
21:33:01 | amiconn | It'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)) |
21:33:27 | amiconn | Lots of small tracks will currently use up all metadata slots before the buffer is full |
21:33:57 | lostlogic | amiconn: yes. we definitely need both, the question of the moment is: is it worth it for lowlist to do MoB before TSoB |
21:34:03 | amiconn | We had reports of this happening on archos with 2MB ram - and the limit on archos is 16 tracks (!) |
21:34:10 | lostlogic | amiconn: holy crap |
21:34:59 | amiconn | Now imagine what happens if the metadata slots are exhausted before the buffer is even above the low watermark... |
21:35:21 | lostlogic | my head hurts. |
21:35:36 | The-Compiler | Mikachu: Now the new line is "#define POWEROFF_BUTTON BUTTON_PLAY|BUTTON_SELECT", right? |
21:35:44 | amiconn | Not that this is a likely case, but you never know what kind of ideas users come up with |
21:36:12 | lostlogic | hahaha |
21:36:44 | amiconn | lostlogic: Btw, the effect of the "norwegian language course problem" on archos is rather harmless |
21:37:01 | amiconn | It doesn't crash, it just repeats the 16th track over and over |
21:37:18 | amiconn | A single manual forward skip resolves it |
21:37:56 | lostlogic | amiconn: 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 |
21:37:56 | amiconn | (of course the next 16 tracks might trigger the effect again) |

22:26:13 | linuxstb_ | Re-encode one and test... |
22:26:35 | Bagder | "worth the effort" is 100% subjective |
22:26:35 | ender` | and to decide if it's worth: encode one CD to both flac/wv and mp3 and listen to both encodes |
22:26:58 | ender` | if you can hear the difference, it's probably worth the effort. |

22:27:40 | massiveH | it's better than MP3 if it's worth anything |
22:27:43 | Bagder | since flac is lossless, it will sound better than any bitrate mp3 |
22:27:53 | massiveH | well, any lossless is for that matter... |
22:28:06 | linuxstb_ | 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. |
22:28:10 | Bagder | the question is just if you can hear the diff and if you want the bigger sizes |
22:28:35 | Bagder | and feel like re-encoding all your CDs due to that diff |
22:28:40 | combrains | I'm not fussed about big filesizes although, how big are we talking? |
22:28:54 | linuxstb_ | FLACs are typically 700-800kbps. |
22:29:00 | Bagder | you'll see when you test-encode ;-) |
22:29:04 | ender` | i keep wavpacks on my disk, but put oggs to the iriver |
22:29:04 | massiveH | whole cd ~300-400 megs I think |
22:29:26 | combrains | wow |

22:34:11 | ender` | windows 2000/xp/2003 is actually very stable - i don't remember the last bsod i've had |

22:34:29 | ender` | from my tests it's even slower |
22:34:29 | zefie | unrelated to anything my microSD card finally came lol |

23:21:30 | Soap | so is the drive powered but not spinning currently on the ipods? |
23:21:33 | amiconn | yes |
23:21:44 | amiconn | It's in standby all the time, drawing a few mA |
23:21:51 | Soap | what is that power doing? playing cards? |
23:23:09 | amiconn | The drive electronics consumes it, while waiting for a command to arrive |

23:26:26 | barrywardell | the OF gets about 14-16 hours |

23:30:28 | Arathis | ah, select=none. sad, but that solves my problem (in a way) |
23:31:38 | perl|wtf | so...brickmania menu screen is still broken |

23:32:20 | barrywardell | Arathis: feel free to propose better keymaps ;) |
23:32:23 | | Quit relaxed (Remote closed the connection) |
23:33:01 | Arathis | barrywardell: the problem is the h10 has one key less than a gameboy because of the needed menu key |
23:33:54 | Arathis | barrywardell: I think sound slowness is caused by missing cpu core support? |
23:34:41 | barrywardell | i don't think rockboy has been particularly optimised for the h10 yet |
23:34:54 | barrywardell | using the second core may be one possible way to optimise |

23:35:47 | perldiver | does the cuesheet patch still conflict with the album art? |
23:36:50 | perldiver | and btw, i like the inv approach as well |
23:37:00 | linuxstb_ | 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. |

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

23:52:12 | Nico_P | it should just be a matter of copy-pasting the rej to the right place in gwps-common.c |
