00:31:46Soul-SlayerOh dear me... TrueJournals has a rockbox video on YouTube :$
00:32:20JdGordonmidkay: probably... i was just going by the info in icons.h
00:32:30JdGordonbut yes, i imaine they would still need a blank line
00:32:46midkayJdGordon: got it..

00:35:24midkayright, but i mean in the main menu, one for every (bookmarks = book, sound settings = speaker, general settings = gear or wrench, manage settings = disk, playlist options = playlist icon...) for example.

00:52:43amiconnThat's why I don't understand this commit at all
00:52:44JdGordonas long as the pc util did it right there shuolndt be a problem
00:52:49safetydanThe only one I can think of is if you generate on the PC, but the endianess code should be on the PC side then.
00:53:01amiconnThe pc util needs a parameter to select the correct endianess to generate
00:53:13amiconnThat's all what's needed

01:00:31linuxstb_amiconn: I'm sure Slasheri did it to make generation on a PC easier, but I agree with you it's a waste of code space.
01:00:53amiconn1300 byte just for making it easier for the pc tool?
01:01:11amiconnWhic side of the pair has the bigger processing power and more resources?
01:01:24linuxstb_You don't need to convince me...
01:01:40amiconnI bet it's not only +1300 bytes, but slower as well...
01:02:14linuxstb_But it reminds me of an idea that it's been mentioned before - a "rockbox.info" (or similar) file in the .rockbox folder, so PC tools can find out information about the target, installed Rockbox version etc.
01:02:35linuxstb_Endianness could be one entry.
01:02:54JdGordonwell, if make zip generates it the go for it :)
01:03:05linuxstb_Yes, make zip could do it...
01:03:12 Quit Brunellus (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
01:03:20linuxstb_It just needs someone to add it, and for a format to be invented...
01:03:25JdGordontarget, endian, svn revision, what else would go in there tho?
01:03:49linuxstb_That's probably all that's needed. If anyone thinks of something else, it could easily be added.
01:04:58Soul-SlayerWouldn't applied patches have some sort of interaction too?
01:05:41amiconnI don't know... wouldn't it be possible to get the extact target from the rockbox.* file or any codec or plugin?
01:05:54linuxstb_Yes, but why make it difficult?
01:05:57amiconnAn extra file might not be present
01:06:22amiconnThe tool should at least offer alternatives when that's the case
01:07:07safetydanDoesn't the rockbox.* have a header that contains the target and revision?
01:07:14barrywardellwouldn't it be better to tie the info directly to the rockbox.* file. otherwise you could possibly have differing .info and rockbox.* svn revisions for example
01:07:28amiconnIt does, at least on the targets where we run our own bootloader
01:07:41linuxstb_I didn't think revision was there, but target is.
01:08:02linuxstb_But then of course the tool will need an ever-changing list of rockbox.* files to look for...
01:08:50safetydanSo make the rockbox.* file be the same name on all targets.
01:09:04safetydanCan happen at the same time it gets moved under .rockbox
01:09:14amiconnsafetydan: Not possible for all targets
01:09:22JdGordonwell all but the archos
01:09:27safetydandarn
01:09:31linuxstb_See, exceptions already....
01:09:38linuxstb_Just stick a rockbox.info file there...
01:09:48JdGordonwhy? call the file ajbr.bjz or whatever it is :D
01:09:48barrywardellok, maybe the .info is the better solution
01:10:40safetydanWhat might also be useful is some sort of "official build" indicator
01:11:00barrywardellwhy hasn't rockbox.* been moved to /.rockbox?
01:11:21safetydanbarrywardell: inertia I think

01:11:34Mikachuit would break people with old bootloaders?
01:11:43JdGordonthats good then
01:11:47barrywardellit would avoid a lot of the "it starts up and I clicked on rockbox but nothing happened" questions newbies have
01:11:47JdGordonforce ppl to upgrade
01:11:50probiscus_12hi folks, I'm new here, I have read up a bit and found that there seems to be interest in some in getting rockbox ported to the creative line of players although that doesn't seem to be working yet, anyway I have an older Dell DJ 2 that is very similar to the Creative players, I no longer use it and would like to help their efforts if possible. While my programming skills are not strong, would scanning the board/posting firmware be help
01:11:51Mikachubut they could just move the files
01:12:06linuxstb_barrywardell: The root menu should stop those questions.
01:12:13barrywardelltrue
01:12:23JdGordonhow?
01:12:38***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
01:12:52barrywardellbut searching for rockbox.* in two places seems not very KISS to me.
01:13:00JdGordonif you have a rockbox. file in / and /.rockbox/ it will cause the same confusion even with the menu
01:13:27barrywardellbut at least people will know they are already in rockbox
01:13:35JdGordonprobiscus_12: have a look at the NewPorts wiki page
01:13:49JdGordonpeople think they arnt?
01:14:08linuxstb_JdGordon: Lots of ipod users have never seen their ipod's filesystem...
01:14:24safetydanThe bootloader has been looking in two places for 15 months now
01:14:51probiscus_12yeah i looked at that a bit, and i skimmed over the forum topic about the zens, but I couldn't find any scans anywhere, and thougt I might be able to help there?
01:14:56 Quit Soul-Slayer (Remote closed the connection)
01:15:08JdGordonprobiscus_12: yeah, scans are a good start
01:15:24barrywardelli've read a lot of posts along the lines of "i can't get rockbox to work.I think I installed it but I just get a menu with Text and rockbox in it. I clicked rockbox but it just brings me back there."
01:15:25linuxstb_probiscus_12: Scans would help, but you need to build up some interest in the port and attract some skilled developers.
01:15:53JdGordonbarrywardell: hehe they are funny... ok, now i get what your talking about
01:15:58probiscus_12yeah i realize that, I'm not asking you to port it for me ;)
01:16:37barrywardellanyway, the existing bootloaders would still find the rockbox.* file if it was moved to /.rockbox

01:53:32midkaySlasheri: i've been meaning to ask you a question..
01:54:00midkayyou committed this patch a few days ago: http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/6638
01:54:02JdGordonNico_P: yeah, swcodec has heaps of room, 3k is nothing
01:54:19midkaydo you personally know this guy? he doesn't have his real name available.
01:54:19linuxstb_JdGordon: If the only reason to #ifdef out cuesheet support on Archos is to reduce codesize, then why choose cuesheet support, and not another feature?
01:54:32midkaynor is it apparent whether he's credited.
01:54:54JdGordonlinuxstb: true... i dunno
01:55:20Slasherimidkay: ups.. those guys are hard :/ but it was based on the roolku's patch

01:57:30Slasherimidkay: but i will contact him, hopefully he is willing to tell the realname
01:57:39midkaySlasheri: right, i was a little concerned that he wasn't credited, but if his name isn't up at all.. might run into a problem there.
01:57:53midkaySlasheri: cool, he probably just overlooked it.
01:58:16Slasherimidkay: but a good thing to notice, i just missed he hasn't had a name

02:12:57JdGordondoes anyone know how many right-to-left languages are currently supported in tha langs?
02:13:37JdGordonis hebrew the only one?
02:14:18safetydanJdGordon, do we have a farsi or arabic translation?
02:14:25safetydanThey're both rtl
02:14:26JdGordonno
02:15:27safetydanWell I guess Hebrew is it then.
02:15:45JdGordonhmmm...
02:16:29JdGordonIve got an idea for the list widget, and the first use would be to enable proper RTL, but with only 1 lang im not sure its worth the extra code
02:17:26midkayJdGordon: i finished the menu and general settings submenu icons.
02:17:44Llorea1JdGordon: Someone as working on connected script for RTL arabic.
02:18:11JdGordonmidkay: yay :) put em up somewhere

02:19:07JdGordonhmm... maybe ill add it anyway because the extra code wont actually be that much
02:19:10safetydanLlorean, I thought there was already joining for arabic? Hence firmware/arabjoin.c
02:19:17*JdGordon thinks he _may_ be working on too many patches at once :p

02:19:37*w1ll14m agrees with JdGordon
02:19:39Lloreansafetydan: I couldn't remember if it ever got included.
02:20:07LloreanBut since we 'support' RTL, it seems like if there's a proper way to do it, it should be done properly, right?
02:20:56JdGordonim also thinknig that left/right should be switched if a rtl lang is used (in the list only of course)
02:21:32safetydanProper RTL support would be grand. Not many people would use it right now, but who knows, maybe we'll get a lot of middle-eastern users :)
02:21:51Mikachucan you make bombs from ipods? *hides*
02:21:57LloreanJdGordon: Are RTL-language UIs usually flipped?
02:22:06JdGordonI know there are quite a few Israelis using rockbox, so they would like it
02:22:30JdGordonLlorean: well the text would be on the right of the screen.. so pressing right to enter would probably feels more normal
02:22:41JdGordonjust like we use left because it follows the text direction
02:23:01LloreanJdGordon: Only if they're used to that for their UIs traditionally. We should probably ask some people.
02:23:15JdGordonof course
02:23:18w1ll14mJdGordon, maybe create a file that contains filenames of RTL fonts, if the filename exists it should set RTL instead of LTR. then it's just a task fo editing language files

02:28:37midkayyeah, that's my worry, they might be resized = bad
02:28:43Winchester345hey, in the docs.... when it talks about the API... in the bit about LCD it talks about recorder and player.... do ipods count as recorders for that?
02:28:47JdGordonI think the voice one is better than the sound one and should eb used for both
02:28:56Lloreanmidkay: Yeah, integer resizes are okay, but non-integer not so much.

02:31:25safetydanWinchester345: which documentation? Player and recorder refer to types of Archose devices. The docs are probably talking about charcell vs bitmap at that point, in which case the iPod is bitmap
02:32:11midkayJdGordon: so i think the general settings icon (wrench) can be used for all settings that aren't functions or submenus..
02:33:02JdGordonI was trying to work out what t was.. then i remembered you said you wanted to do a wrench :)

02:33:46midkayi wanted to try a gear, but it's too small to really show well..
02:33:48Winchester345safetydan: docs\PLUGIN_API , so the ipod uses the display buffer like a recorder?
02:33:50midkaywrench looked best to me.
02:34:30midkayfor functions, an arrow: http://img525.imageshack.us/img525/4489/functionys7.png
02:35:05midkayand here's an idea for submenus, a dot-dot-dot - hard to see on a monitor, should work fine on a small LCD: http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/5611/submenutz6.png
02:35:25Mikachuthe dot pitch on the nano is quite high
02:35:53midkayMikachu: way lower than the ipod video, and i can see *all* icons veryvery clearly.
02:36:06midkay(.. on my ipod video)
02:36:30JdGordonmidkay: I like the arrow for submenus
02:36:37Mikachucan't you just use some unicode code points? i'm pretty sure it has arrows and dot-dot-dots
02:36:50JdGordonno.. these are for actual icons not text
02:37:05Mikachuit would look silly with a 20 size font for blind people then three pixels of dots
02:37:06midkaythe others have to be bitmaps, so might as well make these bitmaps..
02:37:15JdGordonrashers rocket ship for functions :)
02:37:15midkaytechnically six pixels :)
02:37:38Mikachudon't underestimate what characters are in unicode, there is for example an umbrella and a broken heart
02:37:51Mikachudunno about wrench though :)
02:38:55Mikachuah, but there is a gear :) âš™
02:39:02Soapmidkay: very nice icons, especially considering the limitations.
02:39:31midkayJdGordon: how about this for submenus: http://img453.imageshack.us/img453/9175/submenu2se7.png
02:39:34midkaySoap: thanks :)
02:39:47LloreanMikachu: A gear is good.
02:39:52LloreanI do like the idea of using Unicode ones.
02:40:01LloreanThat covers multiple font sizes, at least.
02:40:11Mikachuthat is assuming fonts contain the glyphs
02:40:13LloreanCould we default to the icons when unicode ones aren't present?
02:40:20Soapadd the glyphs to all the fonts?
02:40:24midkayi think for multiple font sizes we want bitmaps, especially for high-resolution color LCDs..

02:47:27midkayyeah, just like the bitmaps used for all plugins, for example. you might need to do a little research on it.
02:48:19midkayJdGordon: currently all the browser bitmaps are in the old hard-coded hex format (ugh). if you put these new ones in as bitmaps that are built automatically i'd be happy to recreate all the browser bitmaps in order to transition them to the new system.

03:37:07midkaymaybe a good idea would be to give options the same icon as their.. menu's icon.
03:37:21midkaysound settings the musical note, display settings the little monitor, playlist settings the playlist icon...
03:38:05JdGordonno, that wouldnt work
03:38:13JdGordonthe idea is so he user knows what each item does
03:38:51JdGordonthe list title will have the proper icon tho
03:38:52midkaywell, they know what a submenu looks like, and what a function looks like, so whatever else it might be has to be a setting screen, right?
03:38:59midkayok, let me work on it.
03:39:39midkayhaha. what about a half-star half-stick-figure for a themes icon? :D
03:39:51midkaythe star's primitive and abstract, and the stick figure says personalization!
03:39:58midkayhe's like the sokoban guy.

03:52:10midkaythe indented-lines one?
03:52:27JdGordonthat will be used if none is set
03:52:41midkayor is the submenu icon the same one as its parent (as in your shot of the crossfeed menu being the same as the sound settings icon)
03:53:01JdGordoncrossfeed got the sound one because i told it to
03:54:27midkayright, is that going to be the general theme of things, or was that just placeholder?
03:55:50JdGordonplaceholder.... only the major submenus should get their own icon
03:56:17midkayyou mean like general settings.

04:06:48JdGordonhehe of course
04:06:57SoapI liked the idea that the primary menu items had "iconic" icons, and the others had either an "This is another sub menu" icon or "This is a setting" icon.
04:08:10midkaySoap: like a universal "setting"/"submenu" icon?
04:08:25Soapyes
04:08:54Soapthe classic "plus in a box" icon for submenu possibly even.

04:13:31midkaythat wasn't what i meant.. :D
04:13:35JdGordonhaha
04:13:40SoapI like where you are going with those, but boy they are similar at a small scale.
04:14:03midkayi didn't mean that, sorry..
04:14:20midkayrefresh the submenu one.
04:14:33midkay(shound be a plus without a box)
04:14:44JdGordonthat could work
04:14:57JdGordonis setting.bmp the same as the current playlist bmp?
04:15:04midkayno, considerably different.
04:15:14midkayindented, and the first line isn't bulleted. :)
04:15:30JdGordonoh ok
04:16:02Soapyea, the fat plus works well
04:16:12LloreanSoap: Plusbox looks like the language one.
04:16:32Soapchange the language one then Llorean ;)
04:16:41LloreanMight be a good idea
04:16:48LloreanI assumed the language one was supposed to look like a flag.
04:17:00midkayLlorean: it was, it is :)
04:17:21midkayseems like a good idea for language though, i can't think of anything else personally.
04:17:37*JdGordon starting to regret not getting the generated bmp thing giong here
04:17:58SoapThe letter A for alphabet is what my gut tells me.

04:20:04LloreanI kinda liked the four horizontal bars, with the topmost one being longer.
04:20:06JdGordonrefresh my screenshot... i dont tihnk the setting one works.... it makes the screen to "busy"
04:20:06LloreanWasn't that submenu?
04:20:54JdGordonI'm thinking maybe just a - for settings
04:21:16midkayhmm. gimme a moment.
04:21:17JdGordonthe + looks great tho
04:22:13midkayhrm.. if i break the last-line-stays-empty-rule... :)
04:22:52JdGordonwhat about the reverse cursor icon? (i think its in the vkeybaord)?
04:23:13Soapyea, JdGordon beat me to it. Why not stick with the + / - paradigm?
04:23:27midkaywouldn't mind a cursor, i don't care for the idea of rasher's inversed cursor, it doesn't look nice to me.
04:23:57midkayabout plus and minus.. it seems to me like minus doesn't apply because it isn't a submenu, expanded or collapsed..
04:24:10midkayi think plus will read to a new user as submenu, but i think minus will be kind of confusing.
04:24:13JdGordonwhat about just a dot in the centre?
04:24:19midkaymaybe that.

04:39:24perldiverlet me try
04:39:35safetydanhcs, looks like there's some minor indenting issues with your commit. Though I could be wrong. Hard to tell with viewvc
04:39:43Soappause what?
04:39:53midkayrockblox.
04:39:59hcssafetydan: potentially, I didn't do a final run through expand like I should've
04:40:07midkayi think rockblox needs some work, i'll probably work on that after i finish the clock update.
04:40:20perldiverhcs thanks
04:40:28perldiverit does on gigabeat too
04:40:40safetydanhcs, yeah in tree.c I think there's a tab, and in metadata.c it looks like you've gone with three-space indent
04:40:48hcsdrat
04:40:52jhMikeShcs: :) I did find out that having a resampler in iram on coldfire is critical. Good for another 10% off. Don't think I should throw upsample in IRAM in the core for this but the codec could do it itself and perhaps more efficiently.
04:41:32LloreanWe need to specify some method of comparing performance.
04:41:45jhMikeSLlorean: I'm using boost ratio
04:41:48Llorean"10%" faster, can mean 10% less on the boost scale, or it can mean a 10% speedup which is often much less.
04:42:04hcsI'm measuring time spent in the decoder
04:42:36LloreanSee, two different scales. ;)
04:42:38jhMikeShcs doesn't have frequency scaling to do it
04:42:58hcsand I wouldn't want to anyway, I think this is a much more stable way to look at it
04:43:00jhMikeSLlorean: I'm comparing my stuff on coldfire on the same scale always though
04:43:35safetydanMaybe we need a codec benchmarking plugin :)
04:43:58Lloreansafetydan: X-to-wav :-P
04:43:59jhMikeSreally? I've never heard that idea before ;)
04:44:44*hcs gets to cleaning up the indentation while waiting on build results
04:45:01hcsah, good, looks clean
04:46:48hcshm, I guess I should put blargg in the credits
04:46:58hcs?
04:47:09safetydanhcs, if he's not there already, yes
04:47:14jhMikeSwhy not?
04:47:34hcs'cause I forgot to do it?
04:49:18hcsokays, there we go
04:49:52jhMikeSisn't there an admin type thing in svn like in cvs to change messages?
04:50:28hcsI got some improvement with the single multiply linear interpolation, a bit more by putting the noise loading in an else clause after the if
04:51:15Soapanyone have a use for a ipod photo w/o harddrive?
04:51:26Soapanyone meaning developer?
04:51:37jhMikeSah, the getting rid of the else helped remove another expensive branch of cf since the load is nothing
04:52:26hcswell it be only in the ARM conditional section so no harm done to yu
04:52:28SoapThere is one very cheap on craigslist now, and I'm willing to buy and mail it to whomever might need it.
04:53:00jhMikeShcs: never tried loading two samples with one read? I know it's sometimes unaligned if that's a big problem
04:53:21hcser, crap, alignment changes don't show up in viewsvn
04:53:35hcsjhMikeS: unaligned is a big problem on ipods
04:54:13jhMikeSi see
04:54:34hcsalmost running fast enough to use echo...
04:56:58hcsa few % here and there, we'll make it
04:57:01jhMikeSit really sould have it's own resampler and it's might not be "almost" :)
04:57:15safetydanhcs, credits go in docs/CREDITS
04:57:16hcsblargg did provide a resampler
04:57:19safetydanjust add the name to the end
04:57:39hcssafetydan: did it
04:57:56safetydanhcs, jhMikeS, there's also a resampler in libspeex if you want another one
04:59:15hcsthe code in iram issue doesn't seem to make any positive difference for me, but I understand it is a quite different story on coldfire
05:00
05:00:27hcsI'd rather leave the resampling to the dsp.
05:01:27jhMikeSbut it does a lot of piece by piece stuff there and each block can be done in one shot in the codec. also for coldfire, putting one in iram is just too important
05:02:20hcsok, I'll attach blargg's resampler to the FS task
05:02:23jhMikeSsafetydan: saw that. probably way too heavy for the spc codec
05:02:27hcsso you can take a look at it
05:03:29jhMikeSI did optimize the core one a bit and it took off 4% off the boost not in iram which is good for everything I suppose. Not committed yet.

05:09:03hcsI don't know what you mean.

05:56:26webguest09Hello, question here.
05:56:50*JdGordon is happy with the spanner :p
05:56:55JdGordonor the shield
05:57:09webguest09I have a Toshiba Gigabeat f10.
05:57:25midkayspanner can't be reused!
05:57:29loopsthis must be done from windows computer.
05:57:30webguest09If I install Rockbox, will I have to remove or convert all the music currently on it?
05:57:35midkayso it's the shield or the ... thing. :D
05:58:23jhMikeShcs: doom clips a little on the dsp end though (watching peaks)
05:58:26safetydanloops, no you can do it from Linux or Mac OS X as well
05:58:42loopsit only has commands for windows.
05:59:15hcsjhMikeS: hmm, well, we can't leave it as darn quiet as it is, can we?
05:59:44jhMikeSno...I wish I had an spc that would play a test signal at full volume in all 8 voices
05:59:45webguest09To listen to the songs currently on my Gigabeat (.mp3.SAT file format), will I have to convert them all?
05:59:54safetydanloops, eh? Most of those commands are generic to linux/windows (with cygwin)/ and mac

06:00:11safetydanwebguest09, you'll have to convert them. Rockbox only plays unencrypted content.
06:00:15jhMikeSbut then again I think the peaks show clips a little on the early side
06:00:23JdGordonmidkay: can you do a better icon than the + for the title icon in mens that dont specify an icon?
06:00:27JdGordonthe + looks odd

06:04:05jhMikeSsure, have to build the sime first though
06:04:23safetydanhcs, is that using the the −−debugaudio switch? I was wondering if anyone actually used that.
06:04:35jhMikeSBig Bowser from Yoshi's Island is pretty loud, shows clipping but just don't hear it
06:04:39midkayJdGordon: oh.. erm.. sure. what about using the icon of the menu you just came from?
06:05:05JdGordonthats what its doing....
06:05:15midkayi.e. going into the LCD settings submenu in Display, the plus shows that it's a submenu and when you go into it you see the display icon up there, it is a display submenu after all. sounds perfect to me...
06:05:18JdGordonbut in that menu it will show a +
06:05:28midkayi mean have it show the icon of the actual menu you came from.
06:05:32hcssafetydan: yeah, I've used it
06:05:33JdGordonhmm... that wont work
06:05:36midkaywhy not?
06:05:58JdGordonbecause it doesnt know where it came from
06:06:24midkayyou can set it up to do that, right? if you call lcd_settings_menu, call it with a display icon? or is that not how it works?
06:06:40jhMikeSok, something made a crunching noise at the end of that sounded like wraparound :\
06:06:56hcsew
06:07:14hcsnot unexpected, though, we're on the wrong side of clipping
06:07:43jhMikeSI think << 9 will keep it ok

06:07:55midkayah, gotcha..
06:08:11hcsjhMikeS: which went crunchy?
06:08:16midkaywhat about that ... icon i had before? seems appropriate to show a submenu.

07:39:15JdGordonthe icons are all done
07:39:30midkaycan i have a patch?
07:40:07JdGordonlink is updated
07:40:24JdGordonany menus not yet showing icons will be done automatically when they get comnverted
07:40:45midkayand how do i remove a patch, or what's the best way to apply this one when the old one's already on there?
07:41:21*amiconn usually does a patch -R with the old one, followed by patching in the new one
07:41:42JdGordonmorning amiconn
07:41:56JdGordonsvn revert -R . works for me
07:41:58amiconnmorning
07:42:08perldiverso again, whan a patch gets into SVN, is -R needed before the update?
07:42:17perldiverany patch, not just this one
07:42:19amiconnThat reverts everything, which I wouldn't want
07:42:33JdGordonah, I usually only have 1 patch in a tree at a time
07:42:42*amiconn has several open changes most of the time
07:42:45JdGordonperldiver: either or.. up to you

07:44:35perldiverJdGordon too cute :)
07:44:48amiconnHmm, looks interesting...
07:44:56perldiverok testing on gigabeat
07:44:58amiconnIs there an option?
07:45:00midkayJdGordon: recent bookmarks, you're using the current SVN "doesn't have a blank last line" one and so it meshes with the sound settings icon - not nice..
07:45:14JdGordonamiconn: it uses the show icons option.. so it can be disabled
07:45:26amiconnah ok
07:45:32midkayyou should mayve just update the SVN one to use my version of the bookmarks icon (almost identical, just a line shorder)
07:45:41JdGordonok
07:45:41amiconnHow much does it add? I guess it's not that much
07:45:47JdGordon200bytes
07:45:50JdGordonquite a few bmps
07:45:52amiconnOn recorder?
07:46:10JdGordonyeah
07:46:44amiconnThe big drawback with our icon system is that they are starting to look odd with both large and very small fonts
07:46:59midkayyeah, we talked about this earlier..
07:47:12amiconnHowever, I don't have an idea how to fix this and still have good looking icons at low resolutions
07:47:40JdGordonamiconn: same as the plugin bmps... generated at build time
07:47:46perldivermake the icon set target specific?
07:48:05amiconnVector icons would adapt automatically, but the low resolution output will look ugly
07:48:23amiconnJdGordon: That doesn't solve the font problem
07:48:42JdGordonno.. but...
07:48:52amiconnI think we should just stick with one icon resolution per target for now, and it should match the default font
07:48:58midkayi mentioned earlier that a good idea might be a few stock sets of icons - the current 6x8, then maybe 8x10 and 10x14 or something, so there's some rudimentary scaling, and then let icons be themable for anybody who wants to make it nicer..
07:49:22perldivermidkay nice idea
07:49:23amiconnSo if we decide to make a larger font the default e.g. on the G5 or gigabeat, we would need another set of icons
07:49:39amiconnBtw, does this patch convert the icons to the bmp build system?
07:49:55midkayno, but it was supposed to *glares at JdGordon* :)
07:49:57JdGordonno
07:50:28*JdGordon wishes he did it before starting... running bmp2rb is getting annoying
07:50:37JdGordonI think the icons are all done now tho
07:50:58amiconnThe same-size icons could all go into one bmp
07:51:31midkayand use bitmap_part..
07:51:45midkaythat'd make scaling much easier.
07:51:45amiconnmono_bitmap_part, yes
07:51:48 Quit Mouser_X (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
07:52:08midkaybmp2rb allows for reversing the conversion, right? can you feed the hex stuff into it and get a bmp back?
07:52:15amiconnnope
07:52:24midkayblah.
07:52:52amiconnYou can draw all icons on the lcd, then use the screendump function
07:53:08midkaythat's true.
07:53:55amiconnHmm, themable icons could be done with a loadable BMP
07:54:06amiconnThe default icons would be built in (like the default font)
07:54:19JdGordonand they could be colour...
07:54:20midkayright.
07:54:28amiconnThat requires some work, though
07:54:37JdGordon... commiting this unless someone says not to...
07:54:40amiconn...if we want it to adapt variable sizes
07:54:52midkaybuild in a few stock sets for larger fonts, and allow them to be replaced with on-disk bitmaps.
07:55:14amiconnWhy not just build in one set?
07:55:14JdGordon3 .... 2....
07:55:18JdGordon1...
07:55:23amiconnThere's also just one default font
07:55:48amiconnThe status bar would need to adapt to variable font size
07:55:52midkayif someone chooses a larger font they probably want to see slightly larger icons, even if they're pretty rudimentary.
07:56:01midkayalthough it isn't that important i guess.
07:56:17amiconnYes, but then those larger icons could be provided as a BMP
07:56:45midkayah, smart.
07:56:53amiconnloadable font - loadable icons, built-in font - built-in icons
07:57:16midkayi think themability is the most important aspect at least.. no matter what rockbox comes with iconwise it should be changeable by the user.
07:57:29midkayJdGordon: commit troubles? :)
07:57:44JdGordonno.. checking the patch

07:59:45JdGordonI did it on 2 lines..
07:59:55midkayoh, like in an editor.
08:00
08:00:04JdGordonyeah
08:00:09amiconnSlasheri: I think you should revert this endian-independence commit. The PC tool needs it, yes, but that wouldn't be under firmware/
08:00:17JdGordonsvn commit without any args loads the default editor
08:00:35amiconnI think the PC side is far more appropriate to adapt endianess than the target
08:00:39midkayhow do you svn revert?
08:00:48JdGordonsvn revert .
08:00:52JdGordon-R to recurse
08:00:59amiconnThe PC has far more cpu power and ram
08:01:02JdGordonsvn revert <path> actually
08:01:02midkayoh, that's it..
08:01:03Slasheriamiconn: hmm, at least i could ifdef that out from certain players
08:01:17midkayah, thanks.
08:01:56amiconnSlasheri: Why? What's the advantage of doing endian conversion on target when you can always do it on the PC?
08:02:54Slasheriit makes the format binary compatible for all players. i think you even said earlier that it should be binary-compatible :)
08:03:01amiconnI didn't test the code yet, but I expect it to slow down the database on target, and that's not what we want imo
08:03:16Slasheriamiconn: only if endian-conversion is needed
08:03:36Slasheriand that delay probably isn't noticeable
08:03:39amiconnI don't think I said that
08:03:49midkayokay, has anybody on any target (i'm using an iPod 5G) recently noticed that booting with usb plugged in will not enter USB mode, but freeze Rockbox?
08:03:57midkayit happened rather recently, not sure why.
08:04:05Slasheriamiconn: it has been long time of that, but at least some developer said that :)
08:04:30amiconnAnd even if we'd want binary compatibility, why not just define *one* endianess as the one for the database?
08:04:40amiconnWould save quite some code I think
08:04:57perldiverJdGordon love the icons look on the player
08:05:21Slasheriamiconn: endian-conversion would still be required on target, not really saving in code size and could make code even more complex
08:05:30amiconn?
08:05:43Slasherinow correct endianess is detected at runtime and conversion done automatically when required
08:06:25amiconnWell, defining one endianess reduces code size and complexity
08:06:50Slasherihow would that reduce complexity? maybe code size that much that auto-detection is not needed
08:07:24Slasheriand using host endian by default should give the best performance
08:07:30amiconnThe target group with the same endianess as the one defined for the db wouldn't need any additional code compared to before your commit
08:08:11JerryLangegood job JdGordon love the icons
08:08:13amiconn..and the other one would just e.g. betoh16() / betoh32() unconditionally
08:08:23Slasheriyes, true. but the pctool would still require that same code, so why not to enable it for rockbox also (and disable for lowmem targets)
08:08:43amiconnWhy would the pc tool require this code?
08:08:57amiconnThe pc tool endianess is also known at build time
08:09:18Slasheriamiconn: doing betoh16() for a single struct variable at time? no way, if you check the code in tagcache.c

08:15:39Slasheriin system.h
08:15:45amiconnThese macros are meat for *compile time* conversion
08:15:59amiconnLive conversions should use swap16() and swap32()
08:16:06Slasheriah, that can be fixed
08:16:25Slasherithat new subsystem makes endian conversions fully transparent

10:55:18JerryLangefor the root menu layougs. there are some good points in both of the suggestions. i like the first suggestion the most but i like the "database" being called "Music Libiary"
10:55:28JerryLangelayouts*
10:55:28beckHow could I leave the root menu and go to where it's been called from?
10:55:49amiconnJerryLange: 'Music' doesn't cover e.g. audio books or podcasts
10:55:51XavierGrscorche: yes it was the first that had X (the one with flux box that I made at that time)

10:58:02LinusNJerryLange: amiconn's point is that "Music Library" implies music only, and not spoken content
10:58:12XavierGrI have to agree that Database is better
10:58:37Mikachuwhen i see "Database" i don't think "ah, this is where my music is"
10:58:44LinusNwhy call it "music library" when it can contain any type of audio?
10:58:55XavierGrMikachu: you will get used to it :P
10:59:09B4gderI think we should call it "Music, talks, podcast and other content that is audio-related library"
10:59:29JerryLangeLinusN: was that a point towards or againts the "Music libiary" name?
10:59:31B4gderstands out too!
10:59:42LinusNJerryLange: against, of course
11:00
11:00:11scorcheB4gder: how do you propose we display that on the player on one screen? =P
11:00:16JerryLange"audio libiary" then ?

11:01:07LinusNwhat is it called on the ipod?
11:01:22MikachuMusic i think
11:01:29Mikachuthey have a separate database for audiobooks and podcasts
11:01:31JerryLangeeither LIbiary or Music libiary i believe or Makachu is correct
11:01:31B4gderon the sansa it is "Music" I think
11:01:50JerryLangewhat about just Audio?
11:02:04LinusNstill, i don't think anyone would think that "Music Library" would be unable to contain spoken content
11:02:15Mikachudon't underestimate users
11:02:28scorchethe "library" term is so overused
11:02:39LinusNMikachu: don't overestimate users :-)
11:03:03Mikachulibrary means "collection of books" so it's not really better than Music :)
11:03:13Winchester341I was afk... but.... why is there such a big fuss over what to call it?
11:04:00Winchester341official firmware usually uses Music, doesn't it?

11:05:52JerryLangei noticed something. when going in the settings menu to the dircache if you cancle the setting it resets (sets the option reset to yes) and you have to restart your player (this is with the h120)
11:06:01Winchester341..... will it contain videos too? >.>
11:06:15LinusNwe want to distinguish between the database and the browser, but i guess "Files" and "Music" is a decent distinction
11:06:41linuxstbBut Database is no more "Music" than the File Browser is...
11:07:04Winchester341'Music database'?
11:07:49JerryLangewhat about just "Libiary"
11:08:06LinusNJerryLange: or "Database"
11:08:08linuxstbI'm happy with Database. Library would be OK too though.
11:08:10Winchester341makes me think of books
11:08:30LinusNto me, Library is just as vague as Database
11:08:31Mikachu"browse by tags"?
11:08:35JerryLangegood point
11:09:29JerryLangewell now i'm for database

11:11:32LinusNi doubt it
11:11:44Mikachuit doesn't make sense to me to have videos in a playlist with audio files
11:12:11BigBambiJerryLange, to me (using the file browser) it would feel wrong to select an item other than Music to get to my music
11:12:18beckWhy not use 'Audio library' instead of 'Music library'?

11:14:10JerryLangeBigBambi: could you explain what you mean more
11:14:35Winchester341lol
11:14:37BigBambiI haven't got an iPod, so have never used the database - I organise my files myself and use the filebrowser
11:14:44LinusNBigBambi: i didn't really understand that
11:15:14LinusNBigBambi: then i guess you would use the file browser and not select Music
11:15:20BigBambiSo in the root menu, if the first two options are music then filebrowser, having an option that says music that has nothing to do with my music feels odd
11:15:29linuxstbI think it's pretty obvious to users what "Database" is after they select it...
11:15:35BigBambiSure, I understand what to click
11:15:38BigBambiIt just feels odd
11:15:40LinusNlinuxstb: i do too
11:15:51JerryLangei only use the file browser also
11:15:59BigBambiI thionk anything like Database, Music Database, etc is fine
11:16:50LinusNbtw, should we hide the Database entry if there is no database present?
11:16:51BigBambiAnyone understand me, or am I still waffling :)
11:17:03LinusNBigBambi: i follow you
11:17:11JerryLangeyes i see what you mean
11:17:29Winchester341so then most people agree on Database?
11:17:44BigBambiLinusN: I'm not sure about hiding it, as whilst I don't use it, I think it'd help newcomers to click on it and get a message saying plase initialise or something
11:17:54BigBambi*please
11:18:26LinusNyes, perhaps that is a good idea
11:18:30linuxstbLinusN: My thoughts are that we should keep it there so that new users (especially those where the original firmware hides/obfuscates the files) can see the option.
11:18:43BigBambiI agree
11:18:55JerryLangei was thinking about the suggestion about hiding it, but then i was reading about the blind users and the ease of use fo them if it was kept there.

11:20:44*linuxstb too
11:20:49BigBambiYeah, I didn't see the need at first, but I think it gives a nice feel to Rockbox
11:20:55linuxstbAlthough it is starting to feel a bit ipod-like...
11:21:04BigBambilol, yeah - and that is bad
11:21:06BigBambi!
11:21:20LinusNand if we fix it so the Menu button always takes you to the root, it will probably be pretty useful
11:21:21*BigBambi hugs his H140
11:21:53linuxstbYes, that's something Apple doesn't do (afaik) - no shortcuts between parts of the menu hierarchy.
11:22:02LinusNand Play always takes you to the current playback screen (WPS/FM)
11:22:14BigBambiI like that idea too
11:22:22linuxstbI'm not sure about that one - PLAY on a CD player doesn't play the radio...

11:22:45linuxstbBut as I don't really use the radio, it won't affect me...
11:22:46peturthe disadvantage is that if you're somewhere in the filetree and want to change a setting, you end up back in the root
11:23:13LinusNpetur: no, the file browser always goes to the last dir
11:23:20Winchester341wow..... the naming here gets really pedantic =/
11:23:36BigBambiGot to be correct :)
11:23:56LinusNWinchester341: yes, but there is a good reason, since we don't want to change it too often
11:23:56JerryLangedoes the ipod video have a radio?
11:24:10LinusNJerryLange: no
11:24:32Mikachuthey wouldn't sell any radio accessories that way
11:24:38peturso pressing right in rootmenu (on filebrowser) goes to some subdir, pressing left navigates up in the tree? Errrr
11:25:21LinusNpetur: yes, but we could easily remove the Right button and force the user to use Select
11:25:31LinusNthen it wouldn't be confusing
11:26:01JerryLangei like using the right button to go in the sub directory
11:26:02 Quit norbusan (Client Quit)
11:26:43LinusNpetur: it's no different from hwo it is today when you enter the browser from the WPS
11:26:51LinusNhow even
11:26:58beckHmm... What about 'Audio catalog' for database?
11:27:15Winchester341oooh.... fresh thinking
11:27:21LinusNhmmm, catalog is not that bad
11:27:35peturLinusN: except that you'd feel the rootmenu as being one level above the diskroot
11:27:37amiconnLinusN: Btw, what's your opinion regarding the endianess stuff?
11:27:56LinusNstill, i don't think the Database name *needs* to be intuitive
11:28:18LinusNamiconn: i haven't cared about it so i have no real opinion :-)
11:28:46LinusNpetur: because of the left-to-root?
11:28:48barrywardellJdGordon: with your latest root menu patch I can't go into the file browser while there is a file playing
11:28:50beckSince that's what it is. If you go to the library (in the real world) and searches for a book what do you use? A catalog.
11:28:51Winchester341Just call it Audio catalog and never look back on it ever again
11:29:00barrywardellit briefly goes to the file browser then back to the WPS
11:29:09barrywardelltesting on H10 sim
11:29:15LinusNbarrywardell: use Menu to leave the wps
11:29:26LinusN(if there is such a button on the h10)
11:29:30barrywardellthere is
11:29:46barrywardellbut selecting file browser briefly shows it, then jumps to the WPS
11:29:47peturLinusN: no, because from the rootmenu it feels like moving down the tree, except you may not end one level down but several (depending on where you were
11:30:19LinusNpetur: but don't you think it is pretty obvious to the user what is happening?
11:30:21XavierGrI have mixed feelings about it
11:30:31XavierGrmainly for the buttons
11:30:45LinusNyou select "File browser" and end up in the last dir you browsed
11:31:09JerryLangethat would be very nice
11:31:19peturif it gets too confusing we can still make it a setting :p
11:31:23LinusNi can't see how it would be confusing to anyone
11:32:19LinusNbut i *can* see how always beginning in the root would be a total annoyance
11:32:26barrywardellanyway, gotta go. that problem can be reproduced in the H10 sim if someone wants to try figure it out.
11:32:52JerryLangeyes. espically when you want to sort files in a certin directory or something else similar.
11:32:58LinusNJerryLange: that is actually how it works today
11:33:20XavierGrcurrent inconsistencies: When in settings menu: pressing play, mode or stop all goes one level off
11:33:51JerryLangeoh ok
11:33:56peturLinusN: I see. Anyway, if the user navigated back to rootmenu using left (as if in a tree) it would not confuse, so nevermind me ;)
11:34:09XavierGrIMHO left should exit a submenu, stop bring you to the root menu (or mode) and play should bring you to WPS right?
11:34:19LinusNXavierGr: which platform?
11:34:25XavierGrH300/H100
11:34:31peturstop stops playback while in the browser
11:35:04XavierGralso if the user is in the root menu or a settings menu he can't stop the music
11:35:08LinusNXavierGr: Menu (that is Mode, right?) should take you to the root
11:35:27XavierGragain, I think that stop should stop playback nearly everywhere
11:35:38XavierGr(or at least at main menus)
11:35:51petur[11:35] <XavierGr> IMHO left should exit a submenu, stop bring you to the root menu (or mode) and play should bring you to WPS right?
11:36:01petur"stop bring you to the root menu"
11:36:08XavierGror that
11:36:12XavierGrand then stop music
11:36:21JerryLangei like stop stoping playback while in the file browser
11:36:48JerryLangeusing the stop button
11:36:54peturbut then there's no way to cancel a setting if left also accepts
11:37:19XavierGryes you are right on that
11:37:22peturI'd like to keep music playing while changing settings
11:37:23JerryLangei thought left was cancle?
11:37:31XavierGryes it is
11:37:34XavierGrand it is annoying
11:37:36LinusNis there really a need to cancel a setting?

11:49:01LinusNeither way takes some getting used to, but rockbox in general takes some getting used to

11:52:53 Part JerryLange
11:53:36XavierGrWell I like that it turns out to have a small GUI implementation without clogging up the whole system and screen
11:53:57linuxstbYes, and we don't lose much of the existing behaviour either. i.e. we still have the shortcuts between browser and WPS.
11:54:54LinusNand in the future, a theme could change the icons, and maybe even use a grid of icons instead of a menu
11:55:31XavierGrhave to run
11:55:37LinusNmy feeling is that the root menu lets the user feel more in control
11:55:39XavierGrnice talking on the root menu patch
11:56:35LinusNi also think there is room for a Playlists entry, for the playlist catalog
11:58:03linuxstbWhat about a catch-all "System" entry as well, for things currently in the settings menu (e.g. Info, Sleep timer) which aren't really settings.

12:15:37linuxstbJdGordon: What have you decided to do with NAVI/Select in the WPS? Is the browser configurable, or will it take you to the last-used browser?
12:15:47JdGordonlast used browser
12:15:55JdGordonwhich is basically the same as configuralbe anyway
12:15:59linuxstbIs that saved over reboots?
12:16:02JdGordonno
12:16:11JdGordonit _could_ be tho...
12:16:23linuxstbCould go in the "global status" or whatever struct and nvram...
12:17:01JdGordonI think doing the same thing with play from any screen to the last of wps/fm/rec is ood also
12:17:35linuxstbI'm not convinced about that one - I like PLAY meaning "resume playback" (which wouldn't include FM).
12:17:45scorcheor better yet, does anyone know what the current (no pun intended) status is on the x5 battery consumption? (there is no x5 runtime wiki page)

12:19:05linuxstbIt's a way to start playback - so if you're listening to radio, PLAY will stop the radio and start playback from files.
12:19:39JdGordonwhy? play from the browser doesnt mean start the highlitghed track... it means take me back to the music screen
12:19:41linuxstbMaking buttons do too much will just get confusing IMO.
12:20:42JdGordonI dont think the user would get confused
12:21:13linuxstbNo, but it removes the consistency of PLAY starting audio playback from files - which is Rockbox's main feature...
12:22:16JdGordonIf nothing is playing the I agree... but if you entered the browser "from" the radio, you should expect to return to it
12:23:17linuxstbSo NAVI/SELECT in the radio screen takes you to the browser?
12:23:48JdGordonim not sure :p
12:23:52linuxstbI thought it shows the preset list.
12:24:07JdGordonif it does, then ok, ignore all this

12:42:06JdGordonoh no!! heres trouble :p
12:42:10SoapI really like the fact that with Root Menu finally (almost?) every screen in Rockbox now be viewed as part of one tree. There may be shortcuts between far-flung brances, but that is all the better.
12:42:58LinusNSoap: i agree
12:43:04SoapI really do wish, though (and I am going to speak from the perspective of an iPod user) that Left _always_ took you "down" the tree (towards the root) and that right _always_ took you up the tree (towards the branches)
12:43:20Soapand that you had to use an action button (select) to make any changes.
12:43:42Soapin other words, right never accepts, and left never cancels. Select=action=toggles.
12:44:02Mikachuleft and right don't do anything in the apple firmware in menus though
12:44:02SoapRight and Left = navigation in the tree only.
12:44:06Mikachuyou have to use select and menu
12:44:07markunJdGordon: what's the difference between the + and the black dot icons? (crossfeed vs EQ)
12:44:12SoapFuck the apple firmware ;)
12:45:00JdGordonmarkun: dot is for functions, + is sub menus... it just means i havnt converted the eq menu yet
12:45:04SoapApple firmware never made sense to me. sometimes Select was a navigation button, sometimes it was an action button.
12:45:37SoapI guess I'm thinking like a joystick. Navigation and fire being seperate.
12:45:43markunJdGordon: ah, so it should also be + for the EQ right?
12:45:45LinusNSoap: you mean you would not be able to leave a setting with Left?
12:45:51JdGordonmarkun: yeah
12:46:05SoapLinusN: you could leave a setting with left - but it wouldn't be cancel the changes.
12:46:27LinusNthen i agree, i don't think the Cancel functionality is needed at all

12:47:20JdGordonLinusN: yeah, time to change the setting screen keys to make left not bloody cancel
12:47:25SoapIf I walk into a room, perform an action, walking out of the room backwards shouldn't change what I have or haven't done.
12:47:40linuxstbAlthough "cancel" in the more complicated screens such as EQ and colour picker is useful (but left/right are used differently in those screens anyway).
12:47:47LinusNSoap: interesting analogy :-)
12:48:06*JdGordon found a problem with the action system
12:48:17LinusNJdGordon: oh...
12:48:23JdGordonI cant remember how to get debouncing working with TIME_AFTER() :'(
12:49:12JdGordonsuch simple code and its beyond me tonight :p
12:49:19SoapIt's a poopy analogy, I just like the idea of being able to simply explain to people that navigation and action are totaly seperated.
12:49:51linuxstbSoap: So RIGHT on a file wouldn't play it?
12:49:58Soapcorrect
12:50:08Soaponly the action button.

13:00:21JdGordonhow so?
13:00:26 Part decayedcell_
13:01:31LinusNsome categories have a separate icon, like the display settings, and some have a "+" icon
13:02:11JdGordonmy feeling was that the major menus should get their own... midkay went a bit overboard :)
13:02:13LinusNi think the icons should be consistent
13:03:00LinusNi.e only the +, the circle and the dot
13:03:25JdGordonthats boooring tho :D
13:03:57LinusNhehe
13:05:00Nico_PLinusN: all the items that have special icons seem to be submenus... i don't find it confusing
13:05:05Nico_Pi find it nice to look at :)
13:05:42Nico_PJdGordon: when are you goinf to commit the root menu ?
13:05:49LinusNperhaps, but the "top level" of settings have separate icons for the categories except File View
13:05:59LinusNwhich has a +
13:06:29Nico_Pthen we need an icon for file view :)
13:06:31JdGordonLinusN: midkay had one for that menu as well, i can commit it
13:06:41LinusNi like the fact that the + means that there is another level
13:06:41JdGordonNico_P: when its done :p
13:07:02Nico_PJdGordon: what's left to be done ?
13:07:26LinusNbut if the top categories all had separate icons, it would probably be just as good

13:14:59LinusNi don't think recording is a "music screen"
13:15:08JdGordonok
13:15:25LinusNfor example, you don't leave that screen while still in action, so there is no "resume" per se
13:16:35JdGordonok
13:16:45*JdGordon doesnt think he has ever recorded
13:16:45LinusNand i don't think you would want to start recording when you press Play just because it was the last screen you were in
13:17:44linuxstbWhich reminds me, the "Recording Screen" entry in the root menu takes you directly to the recording screen, but there is still the recording entry in the settings menu, which takes you to the "Recording Settings / Recording Screen" menu.
13:18:02JdGordonyes, no biggee... im gong to leave that for the moment

14:08:46SirFunkwow
14:08:50SirFunkh340's go cheap on ebay now
14:09:04SirFunkjeezus, i paid almost $400 for my H120, the H340's are like $180 on ebay
14:09:10beckJdGordon: computing with an unsigned int?
14:09:13SirFunki guess that has 2 days left
14:09:14SirFunkbut still
14:09:34Soap2 days left = not anywhere close to closing price.
14:09:40SirFunkyeah i knwo :-P

14:09:57*scorche would rather know for sure about the battery...
14:10:28scorcheSoap: i think they call it the "remote connector"
14:10:45SoapThank you scorche

14:11:54barrywardellJdGordon: I still have my bug on the H10 sim with your RC. Try playing a file. Then going to the root menu and selecting Files
14:12:04barrywardellIt briefly shows the file browser then show the wps
14:12:33barrywardelli don't have my actual h10 with me to test it on
14:12:59JdGordonhmm.. ok yeah, thats happening in the sim, so its a bug!
14:13:02linuxstbThat happens for me on my ipod color.
14:13:14JdGordonprobably needs a action_signal... call
14:13:14linuxstbExactly as barrywardell described.

14:15:19linuxstbI'm not sure if it still applies to SVN, but does anyone have a better idea for implementing a default theme than this patch? http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/6568
14:15:29 Part zakenayo ("Leaving")
14:17:22 Quit barrywardell (Remote closed the connection)
14:17:23LinusNlinuxstb: not really
14:17:35LinusNlooks ok to me
14:17:59LinusNbut i think rockboxed should be the default
14:17:59linuxstbThe downside of my patch is having to hard-code the settings in the theme .cfg file... But I think that's better than the complication of loading an external .cfg file.
14:18:08LinusNi agree
14:18:32linuxstbYes, I wrote that patch before rockboxed was committed.
14:18:50LinusNbut doesn't the theme include a background color as well
14:18:51linuxstbAlthough I find the Rockboxed Orange a bit shocking, and the WPS itself far too simple.
14:19:12linuxstbYes, they do now...
14:19:35linuxstbIt seems we need more colours defined in Rockbox though - not just a global fg/bg.
14:19:43JdGordonlinuxstb: latest version fixes that resume bug
14:19:43LinusNwell, we should work a little more on the rockboxed theme then
14:19:57LinusNlinuxstb: i agree about the colors
14:20:06Mikachua color tag in the wps maybe?
14:20:13linuxstbLinusN: Yes, I'm not saying we shouldn't make Rockboxed the default, just that it still needs some tweaking.
14:20:26LinusNi agree
14:20:35preglowany screenies of rockboxed anywhere?
14:20:41LinusNpreglow: in the forums
14:20:45*preglow goes there
14:20:52Mikachupreglow: http://www.horning.us/Members/Roan/docs/rockbock/wps/ROCKboxed_screenshots/
14:21:28preglowi wish people would just forget about the "rockbox colors"
14:21:37LinusNpreglow: hehe
14:21:48preglowthey're not very nice choice for everything
14:22:15preglowwps wasn't very nice either, no
14:22:45linuxstbBut there's one thing you can say about the Rockboxed Orange - people know that they are in Rockbox...
14:22:54LinusNno doubt
14:23:14preglowheh
14:25:04LinusNi think some of the Rockboxed icons are a bit "spaced out", but i like it in general
14:26:28JdGordonlinuxstb: the only known bug left is the wrong option being highlithed after leaving the wps....
14:26:55JdGordonah.. nuts..
14:27:34JdGordonthe reason is because there are actually 2 wps items, but one is always hidden... and because when you enter it sometimes swaps the hidden one you get the bug
14:27:50 Quit GodEater_ ("CGI:IRC (Ping timeout)")

14:33:57smallideaH140: is there any chance that a long or short press (whichever suits) on Record button would take on into the active playlist ?

14:35:55 Part smallidea
14:36:07JdGordonmarkun: only in the lang files
14:36:12JdGordonwhy which dont you like?
14:36:47LinusNJdGordon: he means reusing the same menu item with different lang id's, instead of hiding entries
14:37:10JdGordonnot really
14:37:23JdGordonthe added code for this 1 case isnt worth it imo
14:37:51 Join himitsu [0] (n=himitsu@61.213.184.46)
14:37:52JdGordonthat code is in the menu handling, not the root menu code
14:38:28JdGordonIt does show a possible flaw with the dynamic menu stuff.. so ill put a note in the code where it needs fixing
14:38:33LinusNone solution would be to make the menu dynamic
14:39:02JdGordonthats what its using
14:39:13LinusNit is?
14:39:24JdGordonim saving the wrong position data in the menu stuff.. i need to change that
14:40:02LinusNsure looks static to me
14:40:06JdGordonits only 12.40am... good a time as any to hack up the code
14:40:13JdGordonnope.... dynamic
14:40:37JdGordonitem_callback() in root_menu.c handles the hiding items trickery
14:40:48LinusNthat's what i mean
14:40:53JdGordonthe only dynamic items are wps and bookmarks which is why it looks static
14:41:06LinusNyou are using a static menu instead of creating one dynamically
14:42:14JdGordonoh... I see... no, this is how you create "dynamic" menus with the new code
14:42:24JdGordonyou put every item in and hide the ones you dont want shown
14:42:49JdGordonthey are scanned before the menu enters, hidden ones are never seen by the rest of the code
14:46:05beckJdGordon: why do you need two items then? Couldn't the item's title be changed? Instead of having two items?
14:46:34markunbeck: hey, that's a good suggestion! ;)
14:46:47JdGordonnot possible without hacking more than I want to
14:47:12beckJdGordon: are entry titles that static?
14:47:15*JdGordon got it working :)
14:47:22markunJdGordon: then don't do it. I thought the title would just be a pointer to the title.
14:47:31JdGordonbeck: no, but the code to get the title is burried deep inside gui code
14:48:07markununder multiple layers of scarry macros :)
14:48:12JdGordonyes
14:48:13beckJdGordon: ok, then commit it so that we can test it. And then it can be fine tuned.
14:48:24GodEater_scarry or scarey ? :)

14:58:16ArathisIs there any reason why highscore and savegame files of the plugins/games don't have same extensions?
14:58:51ArathisThere are *.high, *.hs, *.save
14:58:58LinusNon a different matter, the lack of progress info when initializing the database is somewhat of a nuisance

15:00
15:00:01JdGordonstupid bug
15:00:03LinusNArathis: the reason is probably just lack of coordination
15:00:21LinusNGodEater: the debug info is for developers only
15:00:46ArathisFor backing these files up with a script or something it's quite disturbing
15:00:46LinusNa simple user is left in the dark and doesn't know when it is done
15:00:50markunLinusN: perhaps the Database entry in the menu could show a status screen when it's not build or building.

15:02:39SirFunkhow freaking sweet is that!
15:02:57LinusNpretty sweet, i'd say :-)
15:03:22markunSirFunk: we have some plans to make a custom dock with recording support, but you'd need a external ADC because the recording will be digital.
15:03:28JdGordonbug zapped.... im once again happy with it :p

15:09:07blindI'm trying to edit a theme that was made for the 5G iPod to fit the color iPod and the only thing I can't figure out.. is how do I move the text up? There's no positioning on it in the wps file.
15:09:12*LinusN compiles again...
15:09:34JdGordonagain?
15:09:44BigBambiblind, it is done by line positioning, i.e. to move it up delete a previous line
15:09:59BigBambior use a smaller font
15:10:02blindit's that simple?
15:10:04LinusNJdGordon: yes, you said you fixed a bug, so i downloaded the patch again
15:10:06BigBambiyep :)
15:10:18blindoh jeez. thanks BigBambi
15:10:26dewdude__SirFunk, theoritically, any mic will work. you just have to interface it with the line-in jacks on the dock plug, and that would require some sort of mic pre-amp
15:10:43BigBambinp :)
15:10:58JdGordonLinusN: i didnt repatch it tho... just dont press menu in the root menu
15:11:25LinusNi'd rather have an updated patch
15:11:42JdGordonho hum.... we arnt commiting tonight.. database has a bug
15:11:45SirFunkdewdude__: ehh, i'd rather have something built in
15:12:03JdGordonLinusN: ok, done
15:12:04dewdude__SirFunk, you don't get it, there's NOTHING built in.
15:12:12dewdude__there's no mic or any kind of mic preamp
15:12:26dewdude__you'd rather have something, yes, but, you won't find it
15:12:34blindWell, that also makes it harder that you can't position the text, you have to make the background AROUND the text pretty much.
15:12:41SirFunkwell, then i'll stick to iriver H series players :-P
15:12:53dewdude__ther is one company that makes a small device that has mics and a built in amp
15:13:06dewdude__it's smaller than what i can engineer at least

15:14:09blindhowever, I think that DockPod Aqua theme is just too sexy to pass up.
15:14:41dewdude__i never saw the appeal of a full-blown WPS theme with bmp screens
15:14:52dewdude__seems like it'd eat up precious resources
15:15:18LinusNdewdude__: the appeal is purely visual
15:16:04LinusNand on the other platforms (e.g iriver, x5), the performance loss is very small
15:16:15dewdude__hrmm
15:16:19*dewdude__ shrugs
15:16:24dewdude__i like my plain text
15:16:25BigBambiI'd quite like a sexy WPS, but my H140 isn't up to it. However, most of the time it is in my pocket, so I don't really care.

16:48:14markunMikachu: what does it do?
16:48:14Mikachuit was quite some time ago, i highly doubt it still applies
16:48:25Mikachuit marks functions that are only called from one place as static inline
16:48:44Mikachuiirc it saved a couple of kBs
16:48:51preglowbecause of the inline or the static?
16:48:58Mikachuprobably the inline
16:49:14Mikachubut i think both are needed to not emit an out-of-line version?
16:49:21amiconnyes
16:49:25preglowprobably
16:49:33preglowa bit annoying that gcc didn't inline them anyway
16:49:47preglowbut then again, it probably won't do that unless it's called -O3
16:49:49Mikachuthere is a switch for inlining heuristically, but it wasn't very good at it
16:49:52amiconnA 'static' should make gcc inline the function automatically if it's only called once, but erm, gcc...
16:50:00preglowyes, gcc indeed
16:50:10preglowi've always had problems with gcc's inlining heuristics
16:50:12preglowdon't trust it

17:32:42Nico_Phcs: do they have subtracks ?
17:32:46directhex|workmarkun, is there any particular pattern to the behaviour of the gigabeat remote when the player hold switch is enabled? it all seems rather random to me
17:33:14markundirecthex|work: it's cause by the 'LCD power off' feature
17:33:22GodEater_directhex|work: my advice would be "don't use the remote to power on the gigabeat when you've got the hold switch turned on"
17:34:12amiconnmarkun: I doubt it
17:34:28markunGodEater_: I want to disable the LCD Power Off feature because it doesn't give us any runtime improvement
17:34:44directhex|workGodEater_, why would you advise that specifically? it's next/prev track that's behaving funny
17:34:51markundirecthex|work: for now you can go to the info->debug screen and disable it
17:34:54GodEater_because you it deletes your config
17:35:01markunbut after you reboot it will be gone
17:35:06*GodEater_ did that on the bus this morning
17:35:10markunGodEater_: that should also be changed
17:35:25directhex|workGodEater_, it deletes *your* config. i've been waving a patch to fix that about for days!

17:38:51pixelmawow that was fast - yesterday the same time the standard OndioFM still had rombox (or again) - now it is this far off that it already shows in the build table :(

17:40:17directhex|worki know :'(
17:41:39directhex|workmarkun, due to the recovery mode conflict on MENU, my feeling is POWER | A is the best combination
17:42:41GodEater_linuxstb: is it time for me to delete a chunk of stuff out of the "broken ipod" sticky now do you think ?
17:43:01markundirecthex|work: did you try if there is a conflict?
17:43:46directhex|workmarkun, with power? no conflict IIRC, but you might want to test it yourself to be sure
17:43:53markundirecthex|work: ah yes.. but we can also fix that in the bootloader
17:43:54linuxstbGodEater: I think so... Maybe worth mentioning the original firmware problem on 4g/minis there.
17:44:09markundirecthex|work: well, A | POWER is also fine
17:44:56markundirecthex|work: no, I was talking about the RESCUE mode, but I see there is a problem there
17:45:40directhex|workmarkun, if you time it just right (i.e. start holding menu after the rockbox loader splash appears) it's okay, but i don't think putting exact timings of button presses into the manual is ideal
17:46:09directhex|workmarkun, whereas "hold a and power until player finishes loading" is easy to document

18:15:59pixelmaI don't think it's the right way - and as linuxstb (I believe) said you'll just get the problem to decide which one...
18:16:42markunpixelma: amiconn was talking about using an older build. Isn't that the same as using a newer build with some features disabled?
18:19:12linuxstbI'm quite confident about the future of rombox on the Archos devices - now that cuesheet support is in (which has been repeatedly requested by users since Rockbox began), I can't think of any other features applicable to the Archos devices which will go in the core.
18:19:27pixelmamaybe some people could help with the lang cleanup and JdGordon's menu rework (I don't mean the root menu atm) and see where it could get?
18:19:42linuxstbThe combination of bootbox, JdGordon's menu/settings reworking, and the lang cleanup will bring it back... (as pixelma just said)
18:20:04Nico_Pwould a cleanup of the WPS code help ? i'm working on a WPS tokenizer
18:20:46linuxstbIt could do. Although I think the primary purpose of that is to make the code cleaner and easier to maintain (and more efficient).

18:27:57markunmetadata.c
18:28:44linuxstbIt doesn't?
18:29:09preglowso, is there any other point to the db endianness commit than being able to move the database files around?
18:29:10markunI think only for hw and sw codecs
18:29:35markunpreglow: I think it's to create the db from a PC, but ask Slasheri
18:29:56preglowand why can't those programs just have a switch?
18:30:09preglowSlasheri: i'm asking you, then. read the lines above this :)
18:30:27linuxstbmarkun: I think hw/sw codec is good enough for now. But it may need to be more precise if/when PCM playback is added to hwcodec - it will at least handle wav/aiff.
18:30:40Learnico_p: the chap atom section in the QuickTime file format documentation seems to be what you want. Doesn't seem to include all the low-level stuff though...

18:32:31Slasheripreglow: yes, i am planning to convert other endianess conversions in the fat driver etc. to use that new subsystem
18:32:53preglowSlasheri: what would be the point in that?
18:32:59roolkumarkun/preglow: advantage is that I can use the same database files on my h120 and my gigabeat without losing the runtime information
18:33:03Slasheriit just makes code clean and simple
18:33:08preglowright, runtime info
18:33:27Mikachuyou could just have the pc tool convert the database files
18:33:41Slasheriruntime data can be exported also

18:41:03linuxstbBTW, how should that be run? I tried it quickly the other day, and got a "database not initialised" error.
18:41:06Slasheriwith other tools (like the perl program), there is no that issue but those utilities are limited what they can do
18:41:38linuxstbI changed the path in tools/database.c to point to where my ipod was mounted (/ipod) and ran it from the .rockbox folder on my ipod.
18:41:49Slasherilinuxstb: did it found the files?
18:42:00perldiverthanks for the cue sheet support commit, good one!
18:42:04linuxstbYes, it seemed to run through all the files OK.
18:42:17Slasheriit might not be very useable yet but should create a working database at least. Probably that was the endian issue then
18:42:36linuxstbI'm building on a little-endian PC for a little-endian target (ipod).
18:42:49pixelmasorry I don't understand the code - that's just how I understood the discussion here... and I wished. I can't believe that there shouldn't be another possibility
18:43:43Slasheripixelma: yeah, i see. it seems many people are not aware of that database tool

18:44:52Slasherithose files are created in the directory the program is ran
18:44:59pixelmaSlasheri: sorry I don't understand what you are trying to tell me with that...
18:45:11linuxstbIt could be nice to put tools/database.c in its own subdirectory, and have the Makefile generate a .a lib that could be used in other applications.
18:45:26Slasherilinuxstb: true
18:45:31linuxstbSlasheri: Yes, I ran it from my ipod's .rockbox directory.
18:45:54Slasherihmm, interesting
18:45:56linuxstbMaybe Domonoky could be tempted to add it to rbutil...

21:04:53SoapJust wanted to quadrouple (SP!) check before I slapped Turok.
21:05:26LloreanJuice^: You are aware you can have a different backdrop for the menu right?
21:05:46LloreanJuice^: So, as far as you're concerned, skinning menus is "different icons, and maybe an option to turn off the text so it's just icons" beyond what we already have?
21:06:24Juice^Llorean: yes, i know about the backdrop, is it also possible to have different backdrops for the various "pages" to be set?
21:06:32LloreanNo.

22:15:16preglowthe fun thing is you usually can't boost the bass too much either without getting heaps of distortion
22:15:22preglowat least not the way music is mastered these days
22:15:32LloreanYeah
22:15:42thegeekit's the hardware that is the problem
22:15:50perldiverin the case of ipods its just bad hardware
22:15:58Mikachucan't you just lower treble and raise the volume?
22:16:00thegeekthe easiest way to get "good" natural bass is with some kind of external amp
22:16:08LloreanIt's not 'just' bad hardware. A good portion of it is that he wants the bass to physically move his head.
22:16:16LloreanWhich is usually a bit more than is intended in *any* situation with headphones.
22:16:20thegeekhehe
22:17:03thegeekit's certainly possible, but the integrated circuits in a dap is not likely to provide it
22:18:39preglowthegeek: nah, that'd require analogue electronics, which people aren't too keen on adding these days :)
22:18:50thegeekwell
22:18:57thegeeka small external headphone amp works very well
22:19:04preglowindeed it does
22:19:12perldivernot talking about people who really want to blow their brains out with huge amount of bass of course
22:19:25perldiverbut its very hard to get a decent range from ipods even with good headphones
22:19:25idnarI hate it when people "crank up the base"
22:19:41scorcheLlorean: wow....can he even identify his music altering it that much?
22:19:44idnara headphone amp works wonders, though

22:21:00Mikachucan't he just play the music normally and suck on a pneumatic drill?

22:57:25Bagderyou probably need to rotate or crop the play field to get the same aspect as the other targets
22:57:41Nico_Pperldiver: i find it a bit too easy and there is too much empty space
22:57:52amiconnbrickmania playability varies a lot across targets
22:57:56Nico_PBagder: yeah probably
22:58:10n1sNico_P: or add more bricks!
22:58:20Bagderhehe
22:58:44mattzzI made a proposal to sort plugins so that rockbox/rocks does not become overcrowded.
22:58:49mattzzhttp://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/SortingPluginsProposal
22:59:42LloreanNico_P: Just rotate it 90 degrees, and then it's the same as the iPod5G
22:59:56n1smattzz: that has come up a lot of times, and I don't really know why noone has made it yet...

23:00:18Nico_PLlorean: yeah why not... the only thing is i'm not sure it's easy to just rotate the whole screen
23:00:29n1sand I'd like to call the "screensavers" Demos, it sounds way 'cooler' :-D
23:00:39Lloreann1s: Because the way the browser works right now, there'd need to be "Browse Games" "Browse Screensavers" and "Browse Tools" rather than just one option
23:01:09BagderNico_P: no, since there's no "system level" support for rotate, you need to add it to brickmania and it may not be just a minor fix
23:01:15n1sLlorean: yes, but couldn't these be put in a submenu under 'Plugins'
23:01:31LloreanYeah, they could
23:01:52Nico_PBagder: that's what i thought... i might just crop the playing field for now
23:02:16LloreanNico_P: So, instead of fixing the plugin, come up with a way to rotate the whole screen and you've the potential to fix a few plugins in one swoop. :-P
23:02:19n1sI'd like it that way, less buttonpresses to get where you want and no more clutter in the main menu
23:02:35amiconnhmm
23:02:46*amiconn wonders why we're building plugins with -O
23:02:57n1samiconn: all of them?
23:03:03amiconnShouldn't that be -O2 / -Os according to the top-level makefile?
23:03:08*Bagder can't recall any good reason
23:03:11amiconnLooks like it
23:03:30amiconn...provided that if multiple -O options are given, gcc chooses the last one
23:03:49*amiconn checks the gcc manual
23:03:59preglowamiconn: i think it chooses the one specifying the highest level of opts
23:05:03perldiverwith the latest build i cant enter the Repeat menu
23:05:14amiconn"If you use multiple -O options, with or without level numbers, the last such option is the one that is effective."
23:05:16perldiverGeneral/Playback
23:05:21amiconnFrom the gcc 4.0.4 manual
23:05:24perldivernothing happens when pressed
23:05:46*amiconn re-checks this on a swcodec target

23:06:03amiconnMaybe we're building other stuff with unwanted -O levels, like codecs
23:07:08preglowthat wouldn't exactly be desirable
23:07:26preglowbut i think they're O2
23:07:34preglowin windows now, so can't test
23:07:59amiconnHmm, the plain -O is during linking, maybe it's not that important there
23:08:01n1samiconn: I'm fairly certain most codecs have tuned O levels, I played around with tremor and it didn't get better at any other level...
23:08:13preglowamiconn: it shouldn't matter at all, the O flag isn't passed to ld

23:31:06amiconnThe same is true for arm (with the exception of libmad, where -O is tested to be better on arm)
23:34:07amiconnSlasheri: structec.c makes up only a small part of the increased code size, ~400 bytes. I wonder why the changes in tagcache.c increase code size that much...

23:34:34Nico_Pi'll commit it soon
23:35:03Nico_Pmarkun: do you think it's a good idea to have the pad higher up ?
23:35:08preglowamiconn: what's the total size gain?
23:36:03amiconnThe endian conversion commit? About 1300 bytes on sh
23:36:11preglowthat's just weird

23:37:04preglowmost of the changes in tagcache.c is just read -> ecread and write -> ecwrite
23:37:16amiconnYes, but those functions take more parameters
23:37:32preglowsure, but i still wouldn't have thought it amounted to that much
23:39:09amiconnIt does...
23:45:21markunNico_P: perhaps we should rotate the plugin?
23:45:41amiconnHmm, H300 doesn't build with -O2
23:45:42Nico_Pmarkun: that would be the ideal solution but it's far from trivial
23:45:47markunAnd if we do that we can also just use the ipod 5g graphics
23:45:56preglowamiconn: where does it bug out?
23:46:02amiconn...and neither does mini G2
23:46:08Nico_Pfor now i've reduced the game area by placing the pad higher up
