00:42:08linuxstbWe're just waiting for you to ask a question.
00:42:27artillery2302sorry
00:43:09artillery2302okay so i'm following the mac installation and im trying to get the rockbox.zip and its not working and when i do download it mac osx unzips it for me but theres nothing in the folder ... am i missing something

00:45:03Domonokywww.b23.org/~domonoky/rbutil.zip <- rbutil with ipodpatcher (untested)
00:45:20linuxstbPlus I think there's a problem with the current daily build - the rockbox.ipod file is missing.

00:45:26artillery2302so how do i put it onto my ipod if i cant see it exactly
00:45:27Domonoky^^ for windows
00:45:56linuxstbartillery2302: Download the latest "current build" for your ipod instead
00:46:13artillery2302k
00:46:20Domonokywe should compile a rbutil for macos, would solve this problems :-)
00:46:29linuxstbDomonoky: Feel free...
00:46:42Domonokyhehe, dont have macos ..
00:46:48artillery2302i downloaded the ipodpatcher and so it turns it into rockbox-1.ipod
00:46:57artillery2302when it unzips itself is that good
00:47:20midgeyerror -1 means it can't find the firmware
00:47:33artillery2302no the file is rockbox-1.ipod
00:47:41artillery2302after i download it and osx unzips
00:48:00midgeythe zip should contain rockbox.ipod and .rockbox
00:48:05linuxstbMy advice would be to not let OS X unzip it...
00:48:09midgeyyou should only see .rockbox
00:48:21midgeyerr, scratch that
00:48:26artillery2302yeah i guess i need to figure out how to get osx to stop doing that
00:48:37midgeyyou should only see rockbox.ipod
00:48:55midgeycan't you just download the zip file, and unzip through terminal?
00:48:56artillery2302oh i know why it did that i already have a rockbox.ipod on my desktop
00:48:59artillery2302im in idiot
00:49:35artillery2302it sucks being a visual learner its hard to read something and follow it
00:49:36artillery2302for me
00:49:53midgeycopy the zip to your ipod and unzip it there, then delete the zip
00:50:34artillery2302okay im just trying to get everything ready i havnt re-formated my ipod yet to fat32

01:01:38artillery2302whats the difference between the file browser and database
01:02:25artillery2302on my ipod i wont be able to like browse by artist or songs or anything like that?

01:28:41Domonokyhttp:/b23.org/~domonoky/rbutil.zip <- now with ipod and gigabeat support (untested) (both bootloader and rockbox) (windows binary)
01:30:26linuxstbDomonoky: I just tried your previous version (in Linux using Wine - so the ipodpatcher parts failed to see my ipod, as I would expect). But it seemed to download the bootloader (the download window flashed up very briefly) before failing.
01:30:59LloreanI've just restored my iPod and am about to test it
01:31:10linuxstbDid you need to modify ipodpatcher very much (if at all) to make a static lib out of it?
01:31:18Domonokyjeah downloading works..
01:31:32Domonokybut if the ipodpatcher part works.. (i hope.. :-) )
01:31:59linuxstbThe order seems odd though - it should detect the kind of ipod first, and then download the correct bootloader...
01:32:03amiconnsafetydan: (1) Why not use DEBUGF() instead of printf()? (2) There is still one warning left (only for sims built on 64 bit machines)
01:32:13Domonokyat the moment it can only work if the autdetection of ipodpatcher works..
01:32:34LloreanOkay, bootloader install worked
01:32:35Domonokyyou selected your ipod..
01:32:46LloreanBUT Rockbox install didn't, I think the URL it points to is simply outdated.
01:32:53Domonokycould be..
01:33:07Domonokyi had to update the ini file
01:33:08linuxstbBut that's good news.
01:33:31Domonokyi will check the urls
01:33:31LloreanBut, what was all that about auto-detection?
01:33:31artillerytxhey again
01:33:33linuxstbDomonoky: But there's no need for a user to select their type of ipod - just "ipod" in that list is enough.
01:33:37artillerytxwhat is the ipod root folder called?
01:33:40LloreanIt asked me what drive my iPod was
01:33:42linuxstb(for the bootloader part of the install).
01:33:59Lloreanartillerytx: "root folder" means just in the root of the drive. X:\
01:34:04artillerytxoh okay
01:34:20Domonokythis is because i reused the wizard pages for the normal rockbox install
01:34:44LloreanWhat happens if I pick a wrong model/drive?
01:35:05Domonokyhm, i think ipodpatcher complains ?
01:35:09linuxstbThe add_bootloader() function in ipodpatcher should reject it.
01:35:31LloreanYeah
01:35:38linuxstbBut the drive letter will just be ignored (I assume).
01:35:40Domonokywhich should in return give you a failure in rbutil with the error message..
01:35:48Domonokydrive letter is ignored
01:35:55artillerytxso i just put the rockbox folder and the fonts folder in im supposed to eject it and then put it back in ? and then do the bootloader?
01:36:08Domonokydrive letter is used in gigabeat bootloeader install :-)
01:36:09LloreanYou might want to cut the drive letter out and replace it with a "The first detected iPod will be used"
01:36:26LloreanSo people don't try to plug in multiple iPods and just run it on each in sequence, and start wondering why it failed after the first one.
01:36:27linuxstbNo, don't eject, "unmount" it.
01:36:53Domonokyjeah i should modify the page, depending which model you selected
01:36:58LloreanDomonoky: For the gigabeat, does it rename the original firmware file properly?
01:37:06Domonokyi hope,
01:37:12Domonokyi couldnt test..
01:37:19Domonokybut i check every step..
01:37:32Domonokyso it should error if it fails..
01:37:34artillerytxoh cause it says eject
01:37:41artillerytxon the installtion instructions

01:39:17 Join Brunellus [0] (n=luigi@unaffiliated/brunellus)
01:39:48LloreanDomonoky: I'm going to skip testing it on my Gigabeat at the moment, because I'm not sure the recovery process for a missing bootloader if it goes wrong.
01:40:11Domonokyoki, no problem
01:40:16LloreanBut it seems to work fine on my Nano
01:40:25Domonokythats good news..
01:40:27LloreanWell, the bootloader part does, rather
01:40:32linuxstbDomonoky: IMO, the wizard should just have a single "ipod" option. It should then call the scan() function, and tell the user if an ipod was found, and if so, which model. That also needs to check for macpods. You can then download and install the appropriate bootloader.
01:40:41Domonokyjeah urls in the ini are wrong
01:41:23Domonokyoki.. i will change the wizard (make my own pages instead of quick reuse) :-)

02:03:58artillerytxyeah i just cant do that cause i have osx and it does it to the desktop

02:25:22scorchebut, i guess i need to update the image again
02:26:34linuxstbOr just create a .tgz with the /usr/local/arm/ (or whatever) directory?
02:26:53linuxstbs/Or/and/ ?
02:27:02dewdudescorche, last time i tried to apt-get something, i got nothing but a bunch of 404's...unless it was a mirror snafu
02:27:53scorchedewdude: i edited that file and used it to update the image to version 3, so i doubt something is wrong with it
02:28:10*dewdude shrugs
02:28:16dewdudei'll give it another shot
02:28:33scorchelinuxstb: with many of the users of the image, it would be simpler to just make a new image for them
02:28:42Lloreanscorche: Many things can't be apt-getted at the moment.
02:28:57LloreanI'm not really sure why, it just lists dependencies and says it decided not to download them, for me.
02:29:03*directhex makes a NEW vmware image. with blackjack. and hookers.
02:29:07linuxstbscorche: Yes, but it could be useful to give clueful users the option of a .tgz.
02:29:16LloreanBut to update the arm-elf-gcc you just need to apt-get bzip2, and then use rockboxdev.sh
02:29:17scorchelinuxstb: true
02:29:31dewdudedirecthex, actually, forget the blackjack!
02:29:42Lloreanscorche: An image where the crosscompilers are in the folders that rockboxdev.sh installs them to, by default, rather than custom folders, would probably be better.
02:29:52*linuxstb was about to suggest the same...
02:29:55directhexwho makes the image?
02:29:57scorcheLlorean: i actually was thinking about that last night
02:30:10LloreanThat way they can just update it by rerunning rockboxdev.
02:30:13directhexi might be shit at low-level hardware hackery in c, but i can manage vmware like nobody's business
02:30:32scorcheLlorean: aye...i will do that for version 4 then
02:30:35LloreanOf course, we need to package it with bzip2 for that, but that's hardly a big deal. :)
02:31:07scorchedirecthex: i didnt originally make it, but i seem to be the recent maintainer
02:31:46scorchedirecthex: also, i have noticed you make a lot of off-topic comments and generally useless information...this is a technical channel...not a social one
02:34:41dewdudescorche, sorry i thought sources was busted..it seems to be working now..but i tried the other day and it was just 404 error after 404 error.

02:46:15LloreanThere's at least two threads I've seen on other sites were people were 100% certain you had to wipe your windows iPod to install Rockbox.
02:47:22LloreanAnd we had one guy in our forums stating that Rockbox absolutely does not touch the flash on H120 (being only an H10 user, who I think just got confused as to what target what under discussion)

03:01:57Domonokyhm.. linuxstb would it be possible to include the filename of the bootloader in the ipod_t struct ?
03:01:59linuxstbUsing hold to reset settings isn't a good choice - it was probably copied from the ipod, which uses hold as the least bad solution.
03:02:09directhexlinuxstb, then change it on line 336! well, 332 i suppose without the 4-line patch
03:02:46dewdudelinuxstb, didn't that change..or is that if you put hold on after the bootloader goes to rockbox, cuz if i hold right as i power on, it boots of
03:03:20linuxstbYes, you turn hold on after the bootloader starts.

03:06:23artillery2302is that normal

03:06:31directhexgood lord it's late. anyway, trivial patch for less annoying settings reset on gigabeat (forces it to be an active 2-handed procedure that no bugger will do by accident, which is what i'd say was the vital bit). licensed under WTFPL version 2. do as you will. ciao.

03:07:27Lloreanartillery2302: It may be that the theme you've chosen requires a modified version of Rockbox to work properly
03:07:32linuxstbLlorean: That's probably because CPU frequency is disabled, and the wrong frequency is defined in config-gigabeat.h

03:46:24LloreanjhMikeS: Yeah, but you could just decode 20mb of the file into RAM, swap codecs, encode, write, repeat?

03:47:18jhMikeSyes, if voice is moved out of the way somehow and then do as you suggest
03:47:33LloreanjhMikeS: Why does voice need to be removed?
03:48:01LloreanAren't both encode and decode codecs linked to the same location?
03:49:06LloreanI'm not suggesting it should be done now, or that it might be remotely easy, just contemplating that as an alternative for if encoders we want end up not being realtime.
03:49:07jhMikeSthey are, but a goal was to free 512KB of memory and only use one buffer instead of one for voice and one for audio
03:49:21LloreanAaah
03:49:51jhMikeSbut then again, if the disk is already spun...
03:50:56LloreanTranscoding is going to be a disk-heavy activity pretty much no matter what.
03:54:40jhMikeS20MB goes by suprisingly fast though...perhaps could combine the encoder/decoder into one codec...sometimes things that strike me as nightmarish at first turn out not to be so bad on thinking it through
03:56:00LloreanHow would transforming them into on codec help for transcoding, or is that something else entirely?
03:57:08jhMikeSnever mind, we're talking transcoding...:D My brain goes all kinds of wrong places at first.

03:59:44LloreanI just realized that transcoding might make more sense as a 'file' input in the recording screen (from a user perspective) than creating some special interface just for it.
03:59:50LloreanThough I'm not really sure, honestly.
04:00
04:00:07LloreanTranscoding on-target should be fairly rare anyway.
04:00:34LloreanBut at the same time, the times when a user's going to wish they had it are most likely the times where the only alternative is deleting things for space.
04:00:35jhMikeSThen I'd say "plugin"

06:50:32imforpbjright
06:50:34imforpbjokay
06:50:39LloreanInstead it has a "restore" button, where if you hold it down while booting it restores the original firmware

07:03:58klaxiani'm trying to play a speex file on the latest build and it doesn't work
07:04:15klaxianis it really not expected to work yet? i know it's pretty beta
07:05:11Lloreanklaxian: It seems to have some problems right now, yes, though it'll work with some files
07:05:17klaxiani just get a series of short tones and then the player practically freezes but eventually i can get to another song
07:05:28klaxianLlorean: ok cool, glad im' not the only one
07:05:54klaxianLlorean: perhaps the VBR encoding is screwing it up
07:06:27LloreanIt's possible.

07:08:09safetydanklaxian, simple mono files seem to work well enough
07:08:26safetydanmaybe I should just commit the stereo fix now
07:08:37klaxiansafetydan: ah, i see...yes i'm trying stereo files
07:08:52klaxiansafetydan: it's no big deal...you guys do a great job!
07:10:25***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
07:10:26klaxiani have audio books on cd that seem like perfect speex candidates :)
07:10:33klaxianthe files get really small
07:11:52safetydanwell hopefully stereo decoding should work after the commit I just did
07:12:03klaxiansafetydan: oh, awesome!
07:12:28klaxianwhen will the next build be created? i will test it
07:12:57safetydanklaxian, "Build expected to complete around 06:20:30 (in 7mins 54secs)"
07:13:05safetydanthat'll be UTC time
07:13:17klaxianright...ok :)
07:13:45klaxianah, i see that on the site now
07:17:04 Quit [toffe] ("MegaIRC v3.27 http://ironfist.at.tut.by")
07:18:00Lloreansafetydan: With your patch it still plays back too fast, by the way, so apparently updating to SVN Speex doesn't fix that. =/
07:18:24safetydanLlorean, you tried the patch I posted before and it worked? Odd.
07:18:30LloreanYeah, it works
07:18:44safetydanBut yeah, I think the elapsed time calculation isn't done correctly
07:18:52safetydanit's probably still per byte rather than per sample
07:18:53LloreanIt's not the elapsed time calculation
07:19:01LloreanIt actually plays back faster than the same file on my PC.
07:19:19LloreanIf I get them exactly in sync, within half a minute the Gigabeat is a word ahead.
07:19:33LloreanWell, a significant portion of a word, at least
07:19:42safetydanbah, still causes a lock up on my h120
07:20:19LloreanWell, I'm playing a 16khz Mono file.
07:21:25LloreanAnyway, the patch fixes neither of the problems I posted on the tracker, unfortunately
07:22:00klaxiani'm testing now...
07:22:03LloreanWhich I guess really just means they aren't speex problems, but 'speex as a rockbox codec' problems
07:23:02klaxianmy speex files don't play at all after the patch...not even weird tones
07:23:17klaxianthey also crash the player now :-P
07:24:04Lloreanklaxian: I assume you mean the most recent SVN build.
07:24:08klaxianLlorean: yes
07:24:24LloreanBe careful when saying 'patch' as it usually means an actual patch (which is what I was referring to)
07:24:33klaxianah, sorry
07:24:53klaxiananyway, i'd be happy to send you guys the files i'm trying if you want to test

10:30:31decayedcellah alright. That would explain the Untagged entries I'm getting

10:32:55GodEaterwhat are you using to double check the tags presence?

11:42:25bluebrotherHmm. This still sounds like introducing a new menu screen. I don't thing having an additional screen is helpful
11:42:42linuxstbWhat do people think about "Now Playing" changing its title to something like "Resume Playback" when music is stopped?
11:43:00linuxstb(and is that easy in the new menu architecture?)
11:43:56 Join Lear [0] (i=chatzill@rockbox/developer/lear)
11:43:57JdGordonwell the root menu doesnt use the new menu system... It probably could, but doesnt really need to (although, I just realised radio will always be there if radio COnFIG_TUNER is defined
11:44:08bluebrotherbtw, any news on the root screen itself? Can I set an arbitrary screen as root and not back up to somewhere else from there?
11:44:56linuxstbI don't think that's the idea - the root menu will always be the root, but you can configure an entry which is selected automatically on boot.
11:44:58JdGordonyou can set any of the screens as the first screen that loads when rb loads
11:45:42bluebrotheryes, but can I back out to the root menu with left from that screen? I could with the old patch, and if I set a browser view as root screen I don't think this is good
11:45:59JdGordonhmm, yeah, the root menu wont work very well with the new menu system, but changing its name could be done in a hacky way
11:46:05amiconnJdGordon: Hmm, that needs fixing then.
11:46:07linuxstbBut I think we should try and keep the shortcuts between screens - e.g. NAVI on iriver will take a user from the WPS to the file browser, and PLAY will take users back from the file browser to the WPS.
11:46:12 Quit powr-toc (Remote closed the connection)
11:46:14JdGordonamiconn: which?
11:46:17amiconnOn some targets, the radio might or might not be present
11:46:28JdGordonyeah, of course
11:46:29linuxstb(but via the root menu screen in a clean way).
11:46:39JdGordonbluebrother: yes, ill fix that
11:47:26bluebrotherstill, I think we should understand the root menu as a new main menu, and an option to set an arbitrary screen as startup screen
11:47:39bluebrotherand toggle the new root menu the same way we did for the old main menu
11:47:40JdGordonyes, thats bassically how it will work
11:48:08bluebrotherok, I'll wait for the next patch then. The discussion partly sounds a bit different
11:48:25bluebrotherbut if it's only me understanding it a bit different then there's no problem ;-)

11:49:12*bluebrother wants to keep the overall feel of Rockbox he has now as that's quite good
11:49:16*JdGordon isnt exactly sure how to hide the fm screen "nicely"
11:49:51pixelmawhat linuxstb says is important IMO - I don't want to go from wps to file browser/ data base view via the root menu (i.e. additional navigating) to add new songs... though I have to admit that I didn't have a look how it works so far
11:51:11bluebrotherwith a flat hierarchy that could be quite consistent −− navi goes to browser (depending on the setting database of file view), play goes to wps, mode to the menu
11:51:13JdGordonI'm tihnking the rec button would be usefull to go files > db > wps > files
11:51:33bluebrotherremember not all targets having a rec button
11:51:53bluebrotherand the tapers would prefer using that button to go to the recording screen I assume
11:52:03JdGordonI know... but it would work well on the hxxxs
11:52:26bluebrotherIMO it should work well on all targets
11:52:42pixelmaI second that :)
11:53:56bluebrotherotherwise that would create an "xyz optimized" build in svn ...
11:54:35JdGordonok, please have a look at http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/RootMenu and figure out the language and order, ill code whatever is on that page... (also what the root of the main menu should look like when this is in)

11:56:44JdGordonno, plugins should be at the bottom, and db should be hideable..
11:56:47decayedcellwhy not just have Music

11:57:29decayedcelland instead of Browse Plugins, just Plugins?
11:57:37decayedcellKISS principle
11:58:12JdGordonbuttons are the other thing that needs to be figued out...
11:58:21pixelmadecayedcell: Database Browser and File Browser can both access your music...
11:58:46bluebrotherok, you could label it "Music" and "Filesystem"
11:58:46decayedcellyes but I think people would rather browse through ID3 tags rather that files pixelma
11:58:56pixelma?
11:58:58bluebrotherdecayedcell, that heavily depends
11:58:58pixelmanot me
11:59:06*bluebrother prefers file system view
11:59:19decayedcellWould it be possible to customise the root menu view
11:59:25bluebrothernooo!

12:01:25pixelmadecayedcell: file view works correctly even with untagged files (unless you are using ipods/H10 with their music managing software...)
12:01:28decayedcellI also think that games and plugins should be separated. The plugins list is getting rather lengthy in my opinion
12:02:00decayedcellyeah I know pixelma, was just my point of view :p. Perhaps a poll should be setup on the forums
12:03:23JdGordondecayedcell: yes plugins should be organised, but no one can be bothereed :p
12:03:32pixelmano... I think the neat thing about the root menu could be that you can easily switch between file browser/data base view...
12:03:59bluebrotherIMO the browse plugins view should support subfolders, so one could easily organize them
12:04:14LearDoesn't it already?
12:04:29bluebrotherno. Tried it a couple of days ago
12:04:50 Join atsea-196 [0] (i=ariel@gateway/tor/x-c2cb88dbec2a4bc1)

12:05:26bluebrotherI even looked into the code, but found it to be a needs-more-than-5-minutes (unless you are used to the code)
12:07:18decayedcellI think the root menu should resemble as much as possible (with a rockbox twist) the 'root menu's of the original firmware of the targets that rockbox supports. I believe it would make the switch from the original firmware to rockbox a bit less of a jump

12:08:07JdGordonbluebrother: the plugins browser doesnt allow subdirs? wtf?
12:08:29JdGordondecayedcell: we are innotvating... not immitating
12:08:31bluebrotherit didn't show them the last time I tried. Let me check again.
12:09:35bluebrothernope. I created a subfolder in .rockbox/rocks and put a plugin there. The folder doesn't show up
12:09:54JdGordonhmm... ok, thats a bit odd
12:09:55LearCorrect. Must be some filtering, but I'm not sure exactly what yet...
12:09:57bluebrothersame for themes / wps browser (but for wps this makes sense)
12:10:31JdGordonas long as the "problem" isnt buried in filetree.c it shouldnt be too hard to fix
12:11:02bluebrotherI think I gave up in tree.c because of time
12:11:20decayedcellJdGordon I did say rockbox twist... the current implementation of such a menu is pretty good by the DAP manufacturers... all you need to do is take it and make it better
12:11:28 Part norbusan
12:12:08LearIt's in filetree, if the dir filter is set to any of the "special" files, it will only show such entries.
12:12:26LearDirectories aren't such entries, so...
12:12:47bluebrotherhmm. Adding the extension to the directory name?
12:13:25LearNope, still a directory. The attribute must match exactly.
12:13:43LearWould be fairly easy to fix for selected dir filters though.
12:13:47pixelmadecayedcell: how should that work? Rockbox works on a lot of targets with huge differences how the OFs work
12:13:55bluebrotherjust found that myself by trying ;-)
12:14:05Lear(But the if-statement responsible is hairy enough as it is... :) )
12:14:23bluebrotherso make it even more hairier ;-)
12:14:44LearThat reminds me, it can be simplified a little and cut a few bytes from the binary.
12:14:49decayedcellpixelma well on all players there must be some essential menu options. i.e. Library/Music, Now Playing. These are a must have
12:15:40decayedcellRockbox also has a File Browser, so we just add that option to the root menu as suggested already. There are plugins in Rockbox too, so we'll have plugins, instead of Extras such as in the iPod firmware
12:16:22decayedcellIt should function like the original firmware, but the titles should be simple, and consistent, and give the user access to most frequently used features of Rockbox
12:17:24*bluebrother doesn't think Rockbox should work like any OF but the Rockbox way instead
12:18:15bluebrotherLear, is that in ft_load()?
12:18:28LearYep.

12:18:37Lear"filter out non-visible files"
12:18:58decayedcellBut wouldn't that mean getting rid of the root menu completely? I'm pretty sure most OF have some kind of root menu. If it were to be completely original Rockbox, then you would keep the current system of switching modes (which is much like the iRiver firmware I believe)
12:21:04bluebrotherI like the way it currently works. IMO it would just need some restructuring of the main menu and adding an option to start in any arbitrary screen
12:21:19bluebrotherand set the default view to that reworked main menu
12:21:45amiconnbluebrother: Making the plugin browser support subdirs is rather simple

12:22:31amiconnSo the plugin browser would have to show subdirs *and* plugins

12:24:32bluebrotherbut it's easy and less code
12:24:37decayedcelldon't you think its a bit cumbersome at the moment bluebrother? Say I'm playing a song in the WPS screen in Database mode, if I want to check out a picture I took on camp or something I'd have to hold down the Settings button, then change mode to Show Files, then get out of WPS, then find the picture
12:24:49LearBut plugins and their names aren't localized either...
12:25:23bluebrotherdecayedcell, sure. But that's simply the combination of the ideas: put a "Database view" and "Filesystem view" into the new main menu
12:25:36bluebrotherthat way you simply go to the main menu and select the other view
12:25:46bluebrotherwhich is basically the same as with a root menu
12:26:22bluebrotherLear, good point
12:26:29amiconnLear: True enough.
12:26:58bluebrotherwe could add localization support by a file name translator later
12:27:21bluebrotherok, I got it working
12:27:34amiconnSomething like windows' desktop.ini perhaps
12:27:46Slasherii had the idea that database view could support adding directory references to the view via tagnavi.config. For example "Browse files" could open the root dir in file view mode
12:28:03bluebrotherif you know where to search the change is quite easy ;-)
12:28:04 Quit Mouser_X (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
12:28:07decayedcellbluebrother but the current Main Menu has a lot of unrelated misc items in the list, for example we have various settings, recording and info

12:28:22XavierGrSlasheri: What exactly the hibernation feature means on a flashed H100 with dircache?
12:28:35bluebrotherdecayedcell, but that can get collected together in a settings submenu
12:29:12SlasheriXavierGr: dircache state is saved on disk and loaded at boot as early as possible. Then further file operations (especially open() in read only mode) are WAY faster than without dircache

12:30:33decayedcellbluebrother isn't that the beginnings of a root menu?
12:30:49decayedcellRoot [File Browser, Database Browser, Settings]
12:30:52Slasheriah, nothing is written to flash in rockbox by anything else than the iriver_flash -plugin
12:30:53bluebrothersure, but I don't want to see it as a "root" but rather than a main menu
12:31:05 Part norbusan
12:31:06amiconnbluebrother: In fact it could just be put into the .lng files.
12:31:20bluebrotherand not adding a setting "startup screen" but rather "root screen"
12:31:39amiconnThe data needs to be loaded into ram anyway, and english.land doesn't need to contain those strings because the english names are the default
12:31:51decayedcellso what should the root screen look like then?
12:31:57bluebrotherand always return to that selected root screen. So one could set the file browser as root screen and will get exactly the same behaviour as we currently have
12:32:01amiconn...so it wouldn't increase binary size due to those strings
12:32:13bluebrotheramiconn, sounds good
12:33:12bluebrotherso basically it's just a different way understanding the screen which implies a slightly different handling

14:10:14w1ll14mbut it's a very nice start!!
14:10:23JdGordon:)
14:10:24w1ll14mi like it so far
14:11:18linuxstbJdGordon: From what I remember of these parts of Rockbox (but I could be wrong), I think you'll probably need to do some radical changes in the code - to flatten things, and to introduce an exit code from screens, to allow quick-movement between screens. i.e. the wps screen should have exit codes such as "exit, exit to file browser, exit to settings menu" etc.
14:12:30linuxstbAnd as I suggested in the wiki page, I think that on ipods, MENU should be used as a consistent button to exit a screen back to the root menu, not bring up a menu.
14:12:44JdGordonthats the easy part, the problem im having is making the new menu ode cooperate with what I want to do
14:13:37w1ll14mjdgordon, what is it you want to exactly with root menu ?

14:23:52directhexmarkun, the power & a buttons are already at opposite ends of the player, so i didn't think there was much risk of pressing both at once accidentally
14:24:46directhexlinuxstb, agreed, but i've based it on the existing else/if & indent format used elsewhere in the file
14:24:46markundirecthex: but you don't use POWER..
14:25:04linuxstbdirecthex: Don't assume other places are right :)
14:25:22directhexmarkun, good point. i keep forgetting when the reset is triggered
14:25:51directhexmarkun, that's why the reset keeps happening - in years of karma ownership i'm used to holding the power switch to turn on, then enabling hold as soon as it starts booting
14:25:51markundirecthex: what do you mean?
14:26:26markunyes, I agree it shouldn't be HOLD

14:46:13scorcheif you have clicked edit and have not clicked save, it is locked to you
14:46:31JdGordonthe wiki can merge changes so maybe its ok
14:46:35linuxstbi.e. get the core functionality and mappings done first, and then see what we can sensibly squeeze onto the remaining buttons afterwards.
14:47:18scorcheJdGordon: well, worst case, you have to re-do it...not like it will crash ;)

14:49:50JdGordonobo: you need to either regregister it every time its called, or only register it when you have somethng to write.. callbacks are calls once then dumped

16:03:02GodEaterthat's the same concept I've just relayed, but with zip / tar files
16:03:32GodEatera lot of window managers for X do the same thing
16:03:43Winchesterhmm.... having no luck in the forums
16:04:26GodEaterWinchester: have you tried the vmware image instead ?
16:05:15Winchesterbut... vmware is all slow....
16:05:36GodEaterI think you'll find it much faster than cygwin

16:06:17GodEaterexcept it's not working =/
16:06:37Winchesterit was before I used tortoiseSVN
16:06:43GodEaterwell, it's your choice anyway - I'm just told by a lot of our users that they find the vmware image much faster
16:06:51linuxstbDomonoky: Nice to see your rbutil patch - I'll hopefully have a look at it later today.
16:07:13GodEaterlinuxstb: ooh - what's it do ?
16:07:50GodEateronce again I should look before asking.
16:08:11Domonokynice :-)
16:08:34LloreanWinchester: A) What forum are you talking about, I don't think I've seen a mention of cygwin problems relating to TortoiseSVN recently in ours.
16:08:48LloreanB) VMWare takes roughly half the time to compile of cygwin
16:09:13GodEaterLlorean: I told him to look in our forums for a problem I thought I recalled seeing to do with a settings.o problem
16:09:14LloreanC) TortoiseSVN requires that you have Cygwin set up to use DOS/Windows style line endings, most people have it set up for Unix style\
16:09:20GodEaterpossibly I imagined it :)
16:09:30LloreanGodEater: Ah, I thought he meant he'd posted.
16:09:37GodEaternope
16:09:44LloreanThe settings.o problem...
16:09:52LloreanWinchester: arm-elf-gcc −−version, what does it report?
16:09:53Domonokydoes fwpatcher (bootloaderpatcher for h1x0) work on Linux and Mac ? oder do they have to use mkboot and scramble ?
16:09:57GodEaterit's probably a TortoiseSVN option though as you postulate :)
16:10:16LloreanGodEater: No, it's a "Cygwin installer" option, but the settings.o thing is more likely an outdated gcc, I think.
16:10:38LloreanDomonoky: I believe they have to use mkboot and scramble.
16:10:49Winchestersettings.o: invalid string offset 768 >= 0 for section '.shstrab'
16:11:16Domonokyokey, so i should probably rebuild fwpatcher in rbutil.. :-)
16:11:25Winchesterwell... can't paste from cygwin.... plus I am sure it would be classified as flooding ... but that's the main error there that I get
16:11:35LloreanWinchester: I didn't ask for the error you get...

16:12:57Winchesteroh wait
16:12:58bluebrotherDomonoky, fwpatcher is said to run with wine
16:13:03LloreanIf you're using it with TortoiseSVN it needs to be set to windows style

17:05:07|Rincewind|I don't think that adding a xml parser to rockbox is a good idea
17:05:17Winchesterthe concept is for the user to be able to have the menu organised as they want right? doesn't have to be xml.
17:05:30Winchesterjust something which doesn't sacrafice loading time
17:05:53LloreanAnything that loads an additional file from the HD will sacrifice loading time.
17:07:11barrywasn't there talk of loading the menu structure at compile time? I think that would be a better option

17:11:39bluebrotheras that will be hell to support (or even describe in the manual)

17:12:22bluebrotherfor example. JdGordon thought of a customizable user menu iirc
17:12:29|Rincewind|a customizable shortcut menu would be great, as I said in the wiki (RootMenu), this could even replace the quick menu
17:12:47bluebrotherwhich would be ok for me −− but please don't make the menus itself customizable

17:15:44Soapand .xml was generic for

17:16:16Soap(aarrgghh, the Enter key is too close to the " key when I haven't had my coffee.
17:16:16LloreanSoap: XML has a lot of extraneous requirements that are going to add a lot of bad taste to the idea that can be much simpler than that.
17:16:23|Rincewind|for a short cut menu there really is no need for xml, because this menu wouldn't be nested

17:20:30SoapThe advantage I saw to Menu-Tree in a Text-File was that it would allow the whole of the Rockbox community to get involved in alternate menu structures - and perhaps a "better" (notice the quotes) default layout would rise out of the primordial ooze.

17:24:18bluebrotherI think the best solution would be a fixed menu layout and one customizable shortcut menu
17:24:49bluebrotherwhich could even get set as default screen (by the user of course)
17:25:00bluebrothereverything else is headache or non-KISS
17:25:04SoapLlorean: "needlessly customizable" - isn't it a sin to believe in such a thing? "Needlessly complex" is one thing - "needlessly bloated code" another - but since when is "needlessly customizable" a bad thing?
17:25:33LloreanSoap: All it means is "it doesn't need to be customizable", that's kinda what the word "needlessly" means.
17:25:49LloreanCan you argue that it _needs_ to be, rather than simply would be nice to be?
17:26:15Winchesterok..... actually I think I just switched over...... the xml idea is nice.... but a shortcut menu is sufficient
17:26:19SoapI'm just saying that "need" should never be a measure of worthiness when it comes to customizing.

17:37:40Winchesterwhat's abacus?
17:38:09LloreanA very old analog predecessor to the calculator.
17:38:17Winchesterah lol
17:38:19IndroThe rockbox.zip you have downloaded contains the Rockbox firmware itself (a file called rockbox.ipod)

17:41:46bluebrotherurgh. "Album Art support" on the MajorChanges wiki page
17:42:15bluebrotherhow good I can fix this :)
17:42:40SoapIIRC, the manual also links to the daily builds in exactly the same location of the instructions. How about changing http://www.rockbox.org/daily.shtml to redirect to http://www.rockbox.org/cvs.shtml while the dailies are broken?
17:42:59IndroLlorean: uh, didnt read that. thanks for the hint.
17:43:01LloreanSoap: How 'bout fixing the manual to not link to the daily page at all?
17:43:22LloreanSoap: We did kinda remove the link in the menubar so people would use the most up to date builds.
17:43:25Soapis the daily builds page going to be down forever? I thought it was temporary.
17:43:31LloreanIt's not down.
17:43:35LloreanBut some of the builds are broken.
17:43:38Soap"broken"
17:43:59LloreanSoap: You'll notice that the daily builds are now referred to as 'archived' builds, and don't have a link in the menubar
17:44:11markunbluebrother: I think I agree with you that it might be better to have a main menu which is not the root of everything.
17:44:36LloreanThere's no real reason someone should be using a daily, in the majority of cases. And asking someone if they have the 'most recent build' they'll often say yes if they've downloaded a daily, thinking that it is.
17:44:47LloreanDaily builds provide a lot of unneeded complication, that 'current' and 'archived' do not
17:45:15SoapI understand that - The reason I suggested the redirect was because I was under the impression that the broken behavior was unintentional, and would change eventually, and it would be easier to redirect one page on a temporay basis, than to change the wikis and manuals, only to change them back again at some point in the future.
17:46:25LloreanSoap: You're confusing two points
17:46:32LloreanThe BROKEN status is unintentional
17:46:34LloreanThe Current vs Archived status is not
17:46:52LloreanPeople should not be directed to 'archived' builds as a primary source for Rockbox
17:47:56LloreanWhy would we ever change them back to pointing directly to the Archived builds, when people shouldn't be getting them unless they _know_ they want an older build? In which case the link from the Current Builds page should be enough.
17:48:28LloreanMaybe I don't understand your point...
17:49:07bluebrotherhmm, the manual still refers the daily builds. I think I'll remove that
17:50:25IndroLlorean: Should the zip be here? http://build.rockbox.org/
17:50:34bluebrotheror should we keep it? At least the link is correct
17:50:42LloreanIndro: Please read the line at the top of the page.
17:51:05Lloreanbluebrother: It should at least say "If you wish to use an older, archived build, they're available here" or something.
17:51:10LloreanIt needs to be clear that they're outdated builds.
17:51:36Indroah okay, there are building live, cool thing.
17:51:42Indro*waiting
17:51:44bluebrotherI guess I'll just change the title from "Daily" to "Archived" as that is also the term used on the website
17:52:32SoapI was under the impression the only reason Daily builds were not recomended was because of their broken state. I changed the IpodInstallationBeta page to match your edit in IpodInstallation.
17:52:44LloreanSoap: No, we changed it long before they broke.
17:53:05Soapwell, aparently everywhere but all the instructions ;)
17:53:05LloreanThe problem is that people got the impression that 'daily' builds were the current one, or that 'svn' builds required compiling.
17:53:16LloreanHaving just 'Current' makes it clearer that those are the new ones.
17:53:48LloreanSoap: Well, the website came first, it honestly didn't even occur to me that the instructions linked to the daily pages. I wouldn't have made them do so, and I forgot to check. :)
17:54:08LloreanPeople using daily builds and complaining about a bug that's actually fixed in CVS-now-SVN have been a thorn in my side for a year now. :-P

17:55:10SoapWhy does IpodInstallationBeta link to IpodPort for people with Minis and 4G greys instead of directly to IpodInstallation? Should I just change that?
17:55:25LloreanProbably
17:56:45Soapand on a very similar note - IpodInstallationBeta and IpodInstallation have a circular logic thing going for users of those iPods. IIB says: "Minis and 4Gs go to II" then II says: "All users go to IIB"
17:57:34LloreanSoap: The "all users" one predates the "Go back!" one.

18:31:57WinchesterHairyHippy:...the file manager?
18:32:28Lloreanjustjohnny68: Okay then, that's just 'the manual' or if necessary to differentiated it from the PDF manual, 'the html manual', as they're built from the same sources as the PDF.
18:32:36HairyHippythxs winchester - i'm new to rockbox, so always used to load then using itunes
18:32:48Lloreanjustjohnny68: What were your concerns relating to it?
18:32:50Winchesterah ok
18:33:11Winchesterjust.... copying the files is ok if you have the id database in order or the files arranged nicely
18:33:49TrueJournalsOr you can use a program like MediaMonkey... WMP works... iTunes will work with iTunesAgent (http://ita.sf.net)
18:33:52fir3after using rockbox for some hours i came to this conclusion: it rocks! :D
18:34:00Winchesterlol fir3
18:34:04Winchesterno doubt about it
18:34:07TrueJournalsTell us something we don't know ;-)
18:34:10justjohnny68Llorean: thanks will use those terms. As the Current build is the preferred firmware download, and most devices don't have a Release version, perhaps removing mention of a Release version from both the website and at least the manual pages of the devices which don't have a Release, would solve problems.
18:34:14HairyHippyexcellent thxs - I have all my files tagged the way i want and in folders by albumn, then artist, etc
18:34:49fir3crocodiles suck stones to stay under water
18:34:56Lloreanjustjohnny68: Removing it from the website would be somewhat silly: How would people who *do* have a release target get it? As for the manual, we honestly almost never have confusion over the release build.
18:35:02Winchester:o
18:35:13Lloreanjustjohnny68: It's the Current/Archived(Daily) issue that causes confusion.
18:35:19Winchesterthem crazy crocodiles
18:35:35Winchesterah..... Debian files corrupt >_<
18:36:26Lloreanjustjohnny68: But what about the fonts issue?
18:36:31fir3does rockbox use more battery than original firmware?

18:37:13Lloreanfir3: On what player?
18:37:21fir3ipod video
18:37:22justjohnny68Llorean: Yes, but you seem to stress the use of Current builds, even for devices with Releases. For me a Release build in general means a less buggy version, so when I first came to the site to download, it's a little off putting not to have a Release version.
18:37:29markunfir3: yes
18:37:30LloreanWinchester: It doesn't use more on all players.
18:37:42WinchesterI know.... I just knew fir3 had an ipod video
18:37:45Lloreanjustjohnny68: The release version is over a year old.
18:38:01markunfir3: buy a Gigabeat and you will be fine ;)
18:38:21LloreanWinchester: Well, you should at least state that in your answer. A "yes" means always, often people just see that and thing it means all players if *they* don't know it's better for their own player.
18:38:27Winchesterdoes the Gigabeat have all the features like rockboy and such?
18:38:41markunWinchester: it has no recording and FM
18:38:53fir3i don't need recording/fm
18:38:59markunbut appart from that it's the best (imho) rockbox supported player right now
18:39:03WinchesterTouche Llorean
18:39:08Lloreanjustjohnny68: The release build is less buggy, but it's also very much less featureful.

18:40:40markunfir3: no, they were never sold here in Europe (except the UK I think)
18:40:47WinchesterI don't generally buy stuff on ebay... what's the RRP?
18:40:49justjohnny68Llorean: Yes, that is the thing. The release is over a year old, and targeting another release takes energy, time, which I imagine is in short demand. So putting the emphais on the current build as the defacto "supported version" gives people a better since that it is best for them to use and it.

18:44:51justjohnny68Yes, but for the quick to download, non (at first) manual reading, version "2.5" using, people who may have limited desire to understand only to point-click and install, there are multiple steps which could be reduced.

18:52:41Winchesterdoes it say I am wrong is Times New Roman?
18:52:50Lloreanjustjohnny68: To update. But I think they should be able to figure out that a year old version doesn't have the features made available in the last year. 2.5 still offers more stability for Archos users, and many of them seem to prefer it over newer builds.
18:52:55Winchester'cause Times New Roman is always right.... Comic Sans is questionable....
18:53:09Lloreanjustjohnny68: Should we remove the most stable version just because it's old?

18:54:28LloreanIt's physically impossible for anyone but Archos users to use it, and for them there are arguments to use it because it has Rombox which no longer functions with the current build.
18:54:29justjohnny68Llorean, not necessarily. Just don't put it first everywhere. Put it after any reference to Current build. That visually ranks it.
18:54:44justjohnny68ranks it lower.
18:55:18Lloreanjustjohnny68: That also suggests to people who don't read the full thing that the 'Current build' is a release version.
18:55:31LloreanAgain you encounter the issue of people skimming
18:55:41fir3i think there sould definitely be a newer stable build
18:55:43LloreanOnly this time they see 'Current Build' and a link, and get no further information than that.
18:55:51Lloreanfir3: Then make Rockbox stable.
18:56:08fir3define 'stable'
18:56:13Lloreanfir3: last time we tried, there weren't enough people willing to work on actively fixing bugs. Are you?
18:56:28fir3hum ok you're right
18:56:35Lloreanfir3: You're the one who said there should be a stable build. What do YOU consider stable?
18:56:45LloreanWe've tried, last year, to put out a 3.0
18:56:50LloreanWell, the year before, honestly.
18:57:11fir3hrm..
18:57:17WinchesterRockbox is unstable? It doesn't crash on me or freeze.... unless I do something stupid >.>
18:57:52LloreanWinchester: There are still some reproducable bugs in the playback system involving skipping at the end of songs, as well as I believe some voice issues.
18:57:57fir3what about making it easier to access the current build? (with a 'at your own risk' warning)
18:58:17Lloreanfir3: How do you get easier than 'download and extract'?
18:58:53WinchesterAh.... ok I don't normally rewind at the end of songs or use the voicing thing...
18:59:02fir3an installer would be easier...but maybe too easy..
18:59:11Winchesterheh.... suppose attaching the bootloader isn't as simple as it could be
18:59:16justjohnny68Llorean: I guess what I'm really after is either another Release to better reflect what rockbox can do now, or don't worry about a release version. Remove reference to the release version so there are no expectations generated that there will be one.
18:59:32Lloreanjustjohnny68: There will be one, eventually.
18:59:33IndroI activated database instead of file browser and get database not ready, what I must do? just waiting?
18:59:43Lloreanfir3: There is an installer, RBUtil.
19:00
19:00:07Lloreanfir3: It's pretty much functional for installing builds, once you've got your bootloader set up.
19:00:13fir3haven't seen it on the main page :)
19:00:15Indroand what database is it? from the files I have in root directory or that from itunes?
19:00:33Lloreanfir3: Because it's only 'mostly' ready.

19:01:02Indrostill database not ready :/
19:01:21Lloreanjustjohnny68: What a stable release needs is people who are dedicated to doing the programming side of it, and users who are dedicated to actually trying to reproduce bugs instead of using unsupported builds.
19:02:42 Part TrueJournals
19:03:11LloreanNext time there's a feature freeze, I would like to temporarily close our unsupported build forums and replace them with a notice to the extent of "For a 3.0 to be possible, we need ALL users to be using the official build, and filing proper bug reports (see guidelines here). If you want a 3.0 release to ever happen, we need YOUR help. So for the duration of the freeze, unsupported builds will not be listed in our forums."
19:04:20justjohnny68Llorean: Yes, so we should start a wiki page which states the goals of a stable release, post messages in the forums asking for developers and testers interested in joining the effort. Maybe post a poll for must have features for the next stable release to see what's wanted.
19:04:23desowinIndro: reboot
19:04:40Indrodesowin: ok, mom
19:04:46Lloreanjustjohnny68: New features should NOT be part of the release.
19:04:47HairyHippy_installed rockbox on ipod photo, following the manual. got to point where says disconnect and reboot player - it's been on the apple symbol for 5 minutes now - tried restarting player but doesn't resolve - any suggestions?
19:04:50desowinIndro: oh, and in settings set to use database (initialize now)
19:05:00Indrodesowin: did that. ;)
19:05:07Lloreanjustjohnny68: The features that Rockbox-current has when going into the freeze will be the features it comes out with, or it'll never get done
19:05:09justjohnny68Llorean: I agree with that:
19:05:25Indrocoooooool, it works, thanks! :)
19:05:36Lloreanjustjohnny68: As for the rest, it's all stuff we tried, people just vanished. They went to use unsupported builds, or continued working on patches posting them to the tracker with "I know it's a feature freeze, so hopefully you'll include it after you list the freeze"
19:05:56Lloreanlift the freeze
19:06:12Indronow loading some themes.
19:06:15LloreanPeople want something they can use, not something they can work on.
19:07:27Indrois somewhere a theme package that includes all themes? =)

19:10:51justjohnny68Llorean: Then that points towards "deprecating" the whole release concept. No, old doesn't mean unusable, but as you point out people want something usable and generally want the latest and greatest. By not mentioning a Release version, particularly if one doesn't seem possible, you've reduced the noise in chat, forums, etc. Rockbox can have the motto "We're so good, we don't need no stinking Release"

19:25:43Winchester'cept I think the VMWare virtual disk is corrupt again >_<
19:25:51justjohnny68Llorean: I see downloading fonts as fairly important step of the installation process. Since they need to be downloaded seperately for anyone using a current build (and stable release users will most likely want them), I see it as a seperate subheading of section "2.2.2.  Installing the firmware" in the manual.

21:33:01linuxstbDomonoky: You should also add yourself to the list of contributors as part of your patch (in credits.h)
21:33:26Domonokyi think i am already in the credits..

21:34:01linuxstbYes you are, but there's a separate list of rbutil contributors in the About box in rbutil.
21:34:24Domonokyah, didnt know that, will do..
21:34:38linuxstbI've just been playing with your latest windows binary, and noticed it...
21:35:24linuxstbYou probably already know this, but: 1) The "select drive" dialog is still there for ipods; 2) It didn't detect my ipod, but then carried on anyway and tried to download a bootloader called "none".

22:28:57Lloreandesowin: Because the two patches started at different levels, use a range from the middle
22:29:10Lloreandesowin: The KoC bench takes longer to use up that 80% of the battery than the one without it.
22:29:18desowinwell, I couldn't get 100% of battery using cop patch
22:29:21LloreanSo KoC is actually getting better battery life across a consistent voltage range.
22:30:34SoapMirroring what Llorean said - the 100-90 times and 10-0 times are very dramaticly different between those two battery benchs - leading to suspicion of battery weakness or less-than-perfect charging.
22:30:35Lloreandesowin: Rockbox doesn't charge well yet, as it draws power slowly. As well, rebooting or the backlight being on at the start of the test or the disk spinning or you spending more time in menus can also skew.
22:30:39 Quit blueworm ("Leaving")
22:31:04LloreanSoap: But 90-10 should be _relatively_ good basis of comparison
22:31:26LloreanAnd in the 90-10 range, KoC8 got 20 more minutes, which is a non-insignificant number.
22:31:35Soapit should be - the 10-0 life is dramaticly altered by disk access.
22:31:52Soapas one buffer fill when at sub 10% can cause a shutdown.
22:32:03desowinif that would help - I can provide .scrobbler.log

22:34:34senabi was thinking that, so how is rockbox currently modelling the discharge? linerally?
22:34:38Soapsince voltage drop is not consistant with time even when drain is.
22:34:40Lloreansenab: The beginning and ending of the curve are always gonna be questionable anyway. Especially the end.
22:35:10SoapLlorean: Do you want me to add a 90-10 column to the runtime logs?
22:35:12senaboh i know that, i can never get 100% battery or 0% battery
22:35:30LloreanSoap: I think that would actually be useful, yes.
22:35:50senabas soon as i release the charge it drops to ~80%, and it dies at ~7%
22:35:58LloreanSoap: The problem is that the 90 and 10 points might move once we have a better discharge curve, right?
22:36:07SoapI'll work on that tonight - I believe I removed 90% of all wiki references to the daily builds, and 99% of the ones people read.

23:15:52LloreanAh
23:16:00amiconnIn the transition, we'll drop the useless bitswapping on swcodec
23:16:28amiconnAnd then we might switch to speex for swcodec at the same time
23:16:33LloreanAh.
23:16:39LloreanWell, I've only tested it on Gigabeat so far.
23:17:04amiconnThere's one drawback of using speex for voice though - the .talk clips would also need to be in speex format then
23:17:24amiconnOn swcodec of course
23:17:26LloreanWell wouldn't that just mean using a different encoder with the generation tool?

23:25:16nickv111Sorry, computer keeps freezing
23:25:24nickv111Do you guys know how, if you're playing music, to get back to the file browser?
23:25:46nickv111Like, say I want to go back and browse my music while I'm playing music. I can't seem to get back to the file browser

23:26:53Soapon ipod the answer = "Select"
23:27:08nickv111I'm using an iPod
23:27:09safetydanamiconn, the Speex library already has some arm optimisations. There are no Coldfire or IRAM optimisations done yet.
23:27:12nickv111Just a second, let me try
23:27:51nickv111Oh, nice, thanks

23:29:16nickv111I actually did look, but for some reason I couldn't find it

23:40:13Bagderamiconn: yes?
23:40:59amiconnI've built ipodpatcher for linux-amd64 with integrated bootloaders
23:41:12hcspreglow: it just seems to not work with 32 bit, and I don't see any other codecs for which it works at 32 bit
23:41:19Bagderamiconn: dcc it my way!
23:41:25hcsXavierGr: I don't have plans at the moment
23:41:30LloreanBagder: Did you know the iPod Dailies seem broken?
23:41:40 Quit entheh ("^~")
23:41:43hcsXavierGr: I'd like to get speed a bit better, and then begin the code cleaning
23:41:53Bagderah, bad gcc I bet
23:42:08BagderLlorean: thanks, I'll fix
23:42:10hcssafetydan: ha ha, I knew you'd come crawling back to the fan club
23:42:45amiconnIncredibly fast ;) Guess it's because of the build running in parallel
23:43:01scorcheBagder: speaking of bad gcc, hopefully, i will have a new vmware image to upload your way as well
23:43:14Bagderah, goodie
23:44:07amiconnBah, why does the first transfer often fail at the end? :/

23:45:37nickv111I have another question. My scroll wheel seems very unresponsive on my 3g iPod
23:45:48nickv111I turned up the scrolls speed to 15, and it's still unresponsive
23:46:00nickv111To turn down or up volume, it takes a lot of work
23:46:08Lloreannickv111: The scroll speed has nothing to do with the scroll wheel.

23:46:30nickv111Llorean: Okay, then what does it have to do with?
23:46:43LloreanHow fast text scrolls left-to-right on longer than screen width lines.
23:46:48nickv111Oh.
23:47:06nickv111Then how do I fix my scroll wheel issue?
23:47:17amiconnhrrrmm :(
23:47:25Lloreannickv111: There's really nothing you can do right now.
23:47:35amiconnBagder: Correct size? I got another failure...

23:52:45x1jmpCan any 1.8" IDE drive be used with the h120?
23:53:06x1jmpmine seems to be broken after it fell from the table some minutes ago :(
23:53:15webguest75Hi all. Will the 80G iPod supported in the future?
23:53:35Lloreanwebguest75: It's being worked on.
23:53:57webguest75thanks a lot!!
23:54:07LloreanNo predicting when it'll happen though
23:54:18Lloreanx1jmp: Not all 1.8" drives have the right connector.
23:54:31LloreanAs well, they have to be single-platter
23:54:36webguest75okay not problem.
23:54:42Genre9mp3x1jmp: Not Hitachi ones... they use different connectors
23:54:43webguest75bye.

23:56:08x1jmpwhat's dual platter btw? It's also mentioned in the misticriver wiki
23:56:16busa_bladewould anyone have an issue with breaking the jpeg.c file up into a header and a c file?
23:56:26scorcheit means that the hard drive has 2 platters inside of it
23:56:36Bagderx1jmp: dual platter is thicker drives than the single platter ones like in the h120
23:57:42Genre9mp3x1jmp: You'll need a single platter one for your H120
23:58:07linuxstb_busa_blade: If you split jpeg.c, you would need to move it into its own subdirectory, which might not be a bad thing.
23:58:54x1jmpok, what do you think when SSDs could be available and usable with iriver players?
23:58:59busa_bladestill drinking from the fire hose a bit, but is there a particular reason?
