00:00:11 | roolku | saratoga: I took Basic at Uni - there was no C course at the time - don't generalise from your own experience |
00:00:56 | preglow | the soldering -> c experionce crossover is a bit... optimistic too |
00:01:10 | LinusN | we have supplied 8mb builds for years, and now we are debating a build that has 10 times more users |
00:01:23 | |Rincewind| | you don't to know c to compile, just the ability to follow a guide and search the whole rockbox wiki for the bits of information you need |
00:01:28 | preglow | LinusN: i don't really think it's a debate, i'd just go ahead and add the build |
00:01:34 | pixelma | no - I'm fine with the extra daily |
00:01:42 | | Quit kaaloo ("Leaving.") |
00:02:37 | amiconn | LinusN: That supplying of 8MB builds is one thing I wonder about |
00:03:07 | Llorean | I just like the idea of "hardware mod" builds being in the daily, and maybe even compiled for the build table, but not in the download table on builds.rockbox.org, as I think they'll confuse a lot of users, especially if we get more in the future. |
00:03:14 | amiconn | I think the question here is whether we want to support all mods or no mods in th eofficial builds |
00:03:20 | preglow | amiconn: i think we could supply it, but i'd like to remove it from the current build table |
00:03:30 | preglow | let's not make it an "all or nothing" question |
00:03:40 | amiconn | But only supporting some of them sounds like an unfair thing |
00:03:48 | roolku | preglow: but then nobody will know if it is broken? |
00:03:55 | Llorean | preglow: It might be nice to keep it in the actual error/warning table, but remove it from the download portion of that page, so that only archived dailies of it are downloadable, for neatness in that aspect? |
00:03:59 | preglow | roolku: well, yes, the daily build will be broken... |

00:04:16 | amiconn | And including mods in the svn builds causes longer build cycles |
00:04:16 | preglow | Llorean: then what's the point? |
00:04:28 | roolku | preglow: but not visible in the table and hard to track back to the commit that caused it |
00:04:28 | preglow | Llorean: if it's actually compiled, let's let people download it |
00:04:42 | preglow | roolku: i think breaking an alarm_rtc target will be easy to track down, though |
00:04:42 | Llorean | preglow: My concern is end-user confusion. People who've done a hardware mod know to look for it. People who don't know it exists don't necessarily realize there are two builds for their target. |
00:04:46 | scorche | we could implement a separate build table for all the mods underneath the extras in downloads, or even create a new entry |
00:04:53 | LinusN | how many mods are we talking about? |
00:05:05 | Llorean | LinusN: I think the assumption is that we don't know how many there will be in the future. |
00:05:09 | Llorean | We have 3 right now, right? |
00:05:11 | amiconn | roolku: Any mod could break in theory. Does that mean we should provide builds for all mods, even in combination? |
00:05:33 | Nico_P | why not add runtime detection in the plugins and when they are run on a H120 that doesn't have the mod they would fail gracefully and siaply a message like "sorry, but this only works on modded devices" |
00:05:51 | pixelma | I think it's 4 mods (at least) |
00:05:59 | Nico_P | s/siaply/display |
00:05:59 | LinusN | Nico_P: they would clutter the plugin browser |
00:06:18 | Nico_P | how many plugins are we talking about ? one, two ? |

00:06:57 | n1s | JdGordon: we want the left from browser -> root menu back! |
00:07:02 | amiconn | Some of them apply to multiple targets |
00:07:08 | n1s | :-P |
00:07:10 | amiconn | ...and some of them can be mixed... |
00:07:18 | Nico_P | pixelma: i would probably just delete them |
00:07:29 | roolku | pixelma: there are loads of plugins I never user one more or less doesn't matter to me |

00:07:39 | pixelma | you'd have to do that everytime you update |
00:07:39 | Kevinaswell | so now that I got rockbox finally running, i have another question XD |
00:07:39 | * | |Rincewind| cries the same as n1s |
00:07:43 | | Quit lee-qid ("aufwiederbyebientotsayonara") |
00:07:57 | Kevinaswell | how do i get my computer to recognize it again? |
00:08:08 | Kevinaswell | i tried to plug it in to add themes, but nothing happened at all. |
00:08:35 | roolku | pixelma: write a script :) |
00:08:37 | Llorean | Kevinaswell: Shut it down, and then turn on the hold switch immediately after turning it on. |
00:08:44 | Llorean | roolku: And you want all of our users to write a script? |
00:08:49 | JdGordon | n1s: im with you there... |
00:08:55 | Llorean | JdGordon: Everyone is. |
00:08:59 | Kevinaswell | Llorean: shut it down while it's unplugged or plugged? |
00:09:05 | Nico_P | wtf i hadn't seem that left in browser root didn't go to rockbox menu anymore... why ?? |
00:09:07 | Llorean | Kevinaswell: Unplugged. |
00:09:13 | pixelma | JdGordon: yes we changed our minds... |
00:09:13 | Llorean | Kevinaswell: Don't plug it in until you're in the Apple OS. |
00:09:16 | roolku | no, i think most users won't bother with having another (for them) useless file there |
00:09:20 | JdGordon | pixelma: haha really? |
00:09:24 | Llorean | JdGordon: Yes. |
00:09:27 | LinusN | JdGordon: really |
00:09:29 | Llorean | Nico_P: Don't worry, it should be fixed. |
00:09:31 | * | JdGordon can access svn.rocbkox.org again :D |
00:09:40 | Kevinaswell | okay. thanks. |
00:09:41 | JdGordon | ok, ill put it back in today |
00:09:46 | |Rincewind| | JdGordon: something is very strange about the root menu and my patch. If I call playlist_viewer() from my patch and then exit it, it wants to enter the database |
00:09:46 | preglow | JdGordon: with the amount of people changing their minds here: good for you :) |
00:09:47 | Llorean | roolku: I think users will try it, and complain that it doesn't work. Many users. |
00:09:55 | roolku | s/bother with/mind/ |
00:10:00 | amiconn | (1) 8MB mod: possible for all sh based archoses - 6 targets. (2) RTC alarm mod for recorder v1. (3) Backlight for Ondio FM and SP. (4) disk poweroff for archos player (it's a hardware revision thing whether this works properly). (5) autorock, for all targets. (6) RTC for H1x0 - 2 targets. |
00:10:01 | Nico_P | I was afraid it was because there had been too much complaining from nostalgics of the old interface |
00:10:06 | |Rincewind| | JdGordon: the same happens with rockbox_browse() |
00:10:08 | Llorean | Kevinaswell: You'll have to use Menu+Select to reboot out of Apple OS to get back to Rockbox, after you're done. |
00:10:22 | roolku | Llorean: how many users have complained yet? |
00:10:49 | Kevinaswell | Llorean: thanks. how does the file tree work for rockbox? do i have to re add all my music to my ipod? |
00:10:53 | roolku | Llorean: vs. one user who said he will now do the RTC mod because it is included in the SVN |
00:10:54 | amiconn | Combinable: 1, 2, 5 / 1, 3, 5 / 1, 4, 5 / 5, 6 |
00:11:01 | Llorean | Kevinaswell: No, investigate the "Database" in the manual. |
00:11:05 | amiconn | Now how many extra builds does that yield? |
00:11:19 | Kevinaswell | Llorean: thanks, mate. sorry if this is annoying. |
00:11:25 | Llorean | roolku: Yes, but we're talking about a single day here, many of our users don't update but maybe monthly anyway. |
00:12:04 | preglow | but please let's not debate whether we should include non-working plugins or not |
00:12:07 | barrywardell_ | amiconn: while you mention it, did you ever figure out if the disk poweroff problem was the same as I was having with the H10? |
00:12:09 | preglow | because we really shouldn't |
00:12:17 | |Rincewind| | roolku: I wouldn't want to have plugins that don't work |
00:12:17 | Llorean | LinusN: We could leave the HAVE_RTC (or whatever the define is) plugins out of the H120 build no matter what, maybe? |
00:12:25 | roolku | personally I'd rather have something extra instead of something missing |
00:12:28 | Llorean | preglow: Roolku is trying to debate it. |
00:12:44 | Llorean | roolku: You'd rather have extra broken things, than no broken things at all? |
00:12:46 | amiconn | barrywardell_: I can't; it is LinusN's player which does have the problem. |
00:13:13 | barrywardell_ | ah, so did he ever check that? |
00:13:20 | roolku | if the broken thing (i.e. not existing thing in my mind) implies an extra thing in certain cases - yes |
00:13:23 | amiconn | He did some investigation, it seems to be a different problem, but it's mysterious |
00:13:26 | LinusN | barrywardell_: my player is sick atm |
00:13:56 | roolku | I can only say my opinion |
00:13:58 | preglow | it's really simple for me |
00:14:09 | preglow | i don't want to waste time answering users why their plugins don't work |
00:14:10 | preglow | it wastes my time |
00:14:22 | preglow | like i do with repeating thingsg |
00:14:33 | Llorean | roolku: How are plugins that don't work how they should "extra" in any sense but "extra buggy"? |
00:14:37 | roolku | anyway - I would appreciate if the code was compiled and available for users who can't compile it themselves |
00:14:50 | amiconn | LinusN: Battery contacts? Or still the batteries? |
00:15:00 | LinusN | both, i guess |
00:15:06 | JdGordon | lame... nothing in either ml or the forums about the new menu :p |
00:15:18 | | Quit Febs (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)) |
00:15:27 | Llorean | JdGordon: People outside this channel just don't update that much |
00:15:28 | preglow | no one seems opposed to a daily build of the rtc mod |
00:15:32 | amiconn | It seems I have no luck with those high-capacity NiMHs. This new generation of low-self-discharge NiMHs might work better |
00:15:45 | roolku | Llorean: I don't fancy a polemic debate - you can twist words as much as you like. In the specific case here I have voices my opinion. I can accept that other people have a different one so please do the same |
00:16:08 | amiconn | My archoses do work, but if I don't use them for a few days, batteries are empty... |
00:16:27 | preglow | amiconn: i've got a couple of nimh devices that are the same |
00:16:39 | preglow | most noticably a camera |
00:16:46 | Llorean | roolku: I just don't understand yours at all. You're advocating including extra things that don't work as if it were good. Why then shouldn't we compile all plugins for all targets? |
00:16:47 | saratoga | does anyone have any idea why I can't get ipodpatcher to properly patch a 3G without screwing up the bootloader? |
00:16:49 | roolku | preglow: any advice on how I go about it |
00:16:52 | saratoga | I assume its still supported? |
00:17:04 | amiconn | I already have one set of these new-generation NiMHs (not in an archos) which works very well, so probably I should get a few more |
00:17:10 | preglow | roolku: i dunno, linus has said he thinks it's ok, so just assumed he's on it in some way |
00:17:14 | Llorean | saratoga: Use the older IpodInstallation wiki page for now. |
00:17:19 | preglow | roolku: few of us others have access to the build servers |
00:17:28 | barrywardell_ | LinusN: :( If you ever get it working, it was just matter of waiting 1 tick after turing disk power on to allow the voltage to stabalize |
00:17:40 | LinusN | barrywardell_: i understand |
00:18:00 | preglow | roolku: bagder is also a nice chap to bother about build server stuff |
00:18:05 | LinusN | preglow, roolku: it's a matter of adding the RTC build as a target in tools/configure |
00:18:06 | amiconn | barrywardell_, LinusN: That reminds me - the weird behaviour in the ata driver is still there |
00:18:41 | amiconn | At initial poweron, the ata driver waits one full second for the voltage to stabilise, but at normal spinups it doesn't wait at all... |
00:18:41 | roolku | Llorean: no, but I think it is a negible price to pay for something that is of use for some people |
00:18:46 | pixelma | roolku: I take it to the extreme... should all of the other users have backlight settings on their non-modded Ondios? |
00:18:52 | |Rincewind| | JdGordon: have you done something important to the main loop in gwps.c when you wrote the root menu? |
00:19:08 | Llorean | roolku: That's because it's a price you don't have to pay, but I personally will probably have to pay on a daily basis as people begin upgrading their builds. |
00:19:23 | JdGordon | nothing really major... but possibly adding the returns where I did could afect it |
00:19:27 | markun | alienbiker99: what are the flaws in the new main menu? |
00:19:28 | Llorean | roolku: It's also a 'price' that makes Rockbox look vastly less professional because it packages non-working programs. |
00:19:29 | JdGordon | somthing broke? |
00:19:33 | roolku | pixelma: sorry I don't understand your analogy |

00:19:52 | preglow | roolku: problem is that a negligible price like that soon grows big if we continue with that practice |
00:20:02 | preglow | so i say let's not start it in the first place |
00:20:04 | |Rincewind| | my patch broke, leaving functions like playlist_viewer() or rockbox_browse() now want to enter database |
00:20:05 | roolku | Llorean: read again: "I think" |
00:20:29 | Llorean | roolku: Yes, but I feel particularly slighted by the fact that you're perfectly willing to pay for it with my time. |
00:20:37 | |Rincewind| | even when database is not ready/in use |
00:20:54 | roolku | Llorean: and "Llorean: I don't fancy a polemic debate - you can twist words as much as you like. In the specific case here I have voices my opinion. I can accept that other people have a different one so please do the same" |
00:21:04 | JdGordon | |Rincewind|: which patch? |
00:21:04 | preglow | he's not exactly twisting words now |
00:21:11 | barrywardell_ | amiconn: I think it's only a fringe case in practise. Only happens if ide power is off already |
00:21:17 | |Rincewind| | record button config |
00:21:26 | LinusN | i think the biggest problem with always having RTC enabled is the added, nonworking plugins. And the reason that it will be a problem is that users who don't know about the RTC mod *will* ask about the nonworking plugins in the forums, mailing list and IRC. |
00:21:31 | amiconn | barrywardell_: Yes, that too. |
00:21:32 | barrywardell_ | amiconn: but I think it should be removed |
00:21:38 | |Rincewind| | JdGordon: #5555 |
00:21:40 | preglow | LinusN: amen |
00:21:46 | * | preglow goes back to code |
00:22:05 | roolku | Llorean: I and I feel particularly slighted by the fact that you're willing to waste others people time |
00:22:07 | amiconn | barrywardell_: Maybe it's a good idea to always wait a little bit for the voltage to stabilise |
00:22:20 | amiconn | Just one tick, as required on H10 |
00:22:24 | preglow | roolku: they are themselves choosing to do so, that's the difference |
00:22:26 | Llorean | roolku: You suggested doing so before I began to do so, so I feel vindicated by it being your idea, if you want to put it that way. |
00:22:34 | barrywardell_ | amiconn: for the H10 at least, that is done in ide_power_enable() |
00:22:57 | roolku | Llorean: I guess you'll have to live with that then |
00:23:04 | amiconn | Yes, but maybe it would be a good idea to do it in general |
00:23:08 | Llorean | Live with what? I feel fine. |

00:24:13 | barrywardell_ | amiconn: yes, I think so |
00:24:21 | LinusN | still, i think if any mod "deserves" a svn build, it would be the RTC mod |
00:24:46 | markun | it is a pretty cool mod :) |
00:24:48 | LinusN | it is vastly more popular than the other ones |
00:24:48 | preglow | agreed too |
00:25:15 | pixelma | the problem is that it's hard to draw the line |
00:25:18 | amiconn | barrywardell_: Regarding the player - it's strange that even the archos fw of the earliest players which had ata power control (the very first generation didn't) has a pair of ata power control functions - which are not identical with the initial ata poweron, that happens in a separate place |
00:25:18 | Llorean | LinusN: I'm all for it having a build, of any sort other than "The only H120 build we offer" |
00:25:19 | LinusN | and it's not like we need to set a policy either |
00:25:55 | saratoga | Llorean: is there some easy way to just remove the rockbox bootloader? |
00:26:11 | saratoga | i'm mostly interested in getting the retail OS to work |
00:26:18 | Llorean | saratoga: ipodpatcher -w bootpartition.bin is probably what you want to do, I assume you kept your original backup? |
00:26:22 | LinusN | it makes quite a few users (and devs) happy |
00:26:27 | linuxstb | saratoga: dan_a has reported that ipodpatcher is working fine on his 3g. |
00:26:27 | saratoga | following the old instructions gets rockbox working, but the bootloader dies loading the retailos |
00:26:33 | JdGordon | |Rincewind|: ok, rockbox_browse returns an int now which could be your problem... and you need to return GO_TO_REC (or something similar.. check root_menu.h) to load the recording screen |
00:26:41 | preglow | it'd probably make me happy if i dared opening my h120 one more time |
00:26:43 | amiconn | LinusN: Depends on how you measure popularity. If you put the number of modded devices in relation to the number of all devices of that type running rockbox, I doubt it |
00:27:00 | preglow | amiconn: we're not doing a statistic here |
00:27:07 | LinusN | amiconn: that is irrelevant |
00:27:27 | |Rincewind| | JdGordon: ok, that probably is the problem, I still use it as a bool and true = usb in this case |
00:27:37 | LinusN | the ratio of modded/unmodded devices is irrelevant |
00:27:42 | preglow | if ten people have a h120 mod and five people have an fmrecorder mod, then the h120 mod is the most popular one |
00:28:00 | LinusN | exactly |
00:28:21 | saratoga | Llorean: yes I've kept the extracted firmware, though running that command just rendered the ipod unable to boot again |
00:28:24 | JdGordon | not it the only 5 ppl with a recorder are the same 5 using the mod |
00:28:32 | Llorean | saratoga: "Extracted firmware"? |
00:28:34 | JdGordon | but we dont leep stats do we? |
00:28:36 | linuxstb | So is anyone against adding mods to the current builds table (but not making the build servers return the .zips), and adding them as daily downloads? |
00:28:41 | JdGordon | s/leep/keep |
00:28:44 | preglow | i'm so, so tired of white noise now |
00:28:48 | Soap | it would be nice if someone with a vested interest simply ran a parallel build server with "mod builds" |
00:29:01 | LinusN | linuxstb: why not offer the zips? |
00:29:16 | linuxstb | An extra load on the build servers, slowing down the builds. |
00:29:16 | roolku | linuxstb: could be a good compromise, but requires some more effort than just adding a build |
00:29:20 | Llorean | I think the .zips should be on a separate page, or in a separate table, at the very least. |
00:29:45 | * | amiconn thinks that providing mods as daily builds would be more than enough |
00:29:48 | saratoga | Llorean: the bootpartition.bin, although given that ipodpatcher.exe had already blotched my bootpartition I suspect its no longer good |
00:29:48 | LinusN | yeah, the mod builds could be in a separate download section |
00:30:00 | Llorean | I really, _really_ don't want normal users accidentally trying to install officially-modified builds because they don't realize there's two builds for their target. |
00:30:01 | preglow | LinusN: do you know if doing a build table for the dailies would make for a big hack? |
00:30:07 | * | JdGordon requests archos without tagcache as mods also |
00:30:19 | Llorean | saratoga: Yes, the bootpartition.bin is supposed to have been created before you install anything... |
00:30:21 | | Nick midkay_ is now known as midkay (n=midkay@c-24-19-236-139.hsd1.wa.comcast.net) |
00:30:23 | roolku | LinusN: but it would still be good if failure to build them would be visible |
00:30:48 | LinusN | preglow: i think it wouldn't be that easy - it depends on the amount of hardcoding in the scripts |
00:30:53 | scorche | as per JdGordon's suggestion, at least just rombox |
00:30:59 | preglow | LinusN: yeah, no point if it's a bother |
00:31:04 | saratoga | Llorean: oh the original, I don't konw what happened to it, its been a year or so since I installed the bootloader |
00:31:10 | | Quit petur ("Zzzzz") |
00:31:14 | saratoga | is there someway to get another one? |
00:31:31 | Llorean | saratoga: If you've managed to damage your apple OS image at all, you need either the original, or a properly extracted apple_os.ipod |
00:31:50 | pixelma | scorche: is rombox still buildable without tagcache after all? |
00:31:52 | linuxstb | saratoga: http://www.felixbruns.de/iPod/firmware/ - the .ipsw file linked from there is a zip file. Unzip it and you'll get a Firmware-X.Y.Z file which is an image of your firmware partition. |
00:31:53 | Llorean | saratoga: You pretty much have to extract it from an ipod update tool, or restore your ipod, or find someone with a 3G who can give you one. |
00:32:33 | linuxstb | saratoga: But note that when you restore that Firmware-X.Y.Z file, your ipod will want to flash itself, so let it... |
00:32:38 | scorche | pixelma: it should be |

00:33:43 | saratoga | linuxstb: just to be clear, I should use ipodpatcher -w Firmware-xyz ? |
00:34:08 | roolku | right. So what is the conclusion wrt to the RTC build? |
00:34:21 | JdGordon | markun: eaisest way is to add actions and then the kepmap to each major context |
00:34:39 | JdGordon | but #ifdef around the action because most targets wont be able to do that |
00:34:56 | LinusN | roolku: *my* conclusion is that i want a svn build of the rtc mod, but we have no concensus |

00:35:54 | |Rincewind| | In the sim I got a core dump but thought the problem was with the simulated usb |
00:36:14 | |Rincewind| | it should go to root menu, right? |

00:37:07 | preglow | let's not make some great big deal out of it and add the build. the day people come in here whining for the 8 meg build, we can discuss adding that too |
00:37:08 | |Rincewind| | if I unplug usb, then the music has stopped playing, so it should show the root menu |
00:37:14 | saratoga | linuxstb_: thanks for your assistance |

00:37:56 | LinusN | me neither |
00:37:58 | preglow | it's just one more build people have requested |
00:38:13 | LinusN | exactly |

00:40:34 | |Rincewind| | JdGordon: the problem is, the WPS returned with SYS_USB_CONNECTED, but you don't handle this case in root_menu.c |

00:42:13 | SpAwN | n1s, hmm what u mean? |
00:42:14 | barrywardell_ | hmm. can't we implement a sleep without interrupts? |
00:42:15 | linuxstb_ | DerPapst: What makes you ask that? |
00:42:15 | LinusN | roolku: add build target |
00:42:18 | Soap | yes, if you are up to compiling your own build you can add the Kernel on COP patch, which will help some. |
00:42:25 | preglow | roolku: in any case, runtime detection should nolonger be needed, so you can remove that |
00:42:28 | n1s | SpAwN: look for them in the manual, they control line scrolling for text. |
00:42:35 | barrywardell_ | even just a wrapper around udelay() would work? |
00:42:44 | preglow | roolku: then you can add a build target like linusn says. model it on the way mods are handled for the other targets |
00:42:58 | SpAwN | n1s, hmm but i can make it go faster?.... |

00:43:39 | n1s | SpAwN: scrolling a list with the wheel thingy−− not really, text scrolling −−- sure |
00:43:40 | roolku | preglow: okay, I'll try :) |

00:44:05 | SpAwN | n1s, hmm yea im looking to be able to scroll though my music list quicker. |
00:44:11 | |Rincewind| | i think it should go to the root menu, because the file on disc that was playing could have been deleted |

01:07:06 | |Rincewind| | What happens in this scenario: I enter playlist viewer directly from the main loop in gwps.c. (in my patch). While I am in there, I connect usb. Now the playlist_viewer() function exits with "true", signalling that usb is connected. What happens if I don't pass this information on to the loop in gwps.c? (what I mean is, is the SYS_SUB_CONNECTED event only created once or will gwps notice it the next time it polls the buttons? |
01:07:13 | scorche | this guy was constantly upping his own price to make sure no one else got it |
01:07:42 | LinusN | |Rincewind|: the SYS_USB_CONNECTED event is sent only once |
01:08:40 | toffe | JdGordon: could it be possible to make sub menu in the plugin menu and arrange them like in the manual (games, demos,applications..) |

01:32:46 | talking-head | i even looked at the manual and that's stretching it for me ;] |
01:33:09 | pixelma | JdGordon: ah.. no I see. It was just because I didn't know how setting a-b repeat works :P |
01:33:21 | JdGordon | ah |
01:33:31 | pixelma | didn't remember... |
01:33:39 | talking-head | dammit it was there all along |
01:33:58 | talking-head | i am getting a 132.2khz/24 bit upsampling DAC with an opto in |
01:34:01 | JdGordon | thats another custom buld we can do... a-b on ondio |
01:34:15 | talking-head | so i want to use the iriver as a transport to play flacs into it |
01:34:34 | preglow | talking-head: be aware that due to hardware limitations, spdif out is locked to 44.1khz during playback, though |
01:34:36 | SpAwN | damn i had to close my irc client and i cant find out what patch i was supposed to install to help speed up scrolling on my ipod video |
01:34:43 | SpAwN | it was like 5775 |
01:34:47 | SpAwN | or 5575 |
01:35:01 | preglow | talking-head: currently it's also limited to 16 bit audio, but that can be extended to 20 bits as soon as someone codes the support into the driver |
01:35:03 | talking-head | yeah 44k is ok, it has an internal upsampling chip in it that triples the sample rate |
01:35:23 | preglow | talking-head: yeah, just don't be surprised when your 48khz flacs get resampled (badly) internally in rockbox |
01:35:35 | talking-head | ok good tip |
01:35:40 | talking-head | i think all of my stuff is 44k tho |
01:35:46 | preglow | talking-head: then you should have no problems |
01:35:53 | talking-head | sweet thanks a ton :) |
01:35:57 | preglow | np |
01:36:23 | talking-head | u hear anything about AC3 thru the opto port? |
01:36:28 | | Join sakuramboo [0] (n=John@ool-43504efe.dyn.optonline.net) |
01:36:38 | preglow | what rate is that? |
01:36:42 | talking-head | i saw some guys were doing dts but ac3 was kind of the next step for r+d |
01:37:01 | preglow | it might be possible but it depends what bitrate it is |
01:37:03 | talking-head | ac3 is multichannel encoded but i don't know what rate it runs at |
01:37:06 | Doomed_9 | does it downsample everything from the regular head phone or just hte optical out |
01:37:18 | sakuramboo | hello everyone, i just installed rockbox on my 4th gen grey scale ipod and now i cant seem to connect to it from my computer |
01:37:21 | preglow | Doomed_9: every output is resampled |
01:37:43 | Doomed_9 | i see |
01:37:56 | talking-head | consumer device :) |
01:38:00 | preglow | talking-head: the sample rate limitations i mentioned might put a stop to it, but anyway, it's not a feature i think any of the developers want, so don't expect it |
01:38:13 | talking-head | just wondering i saw some peepz were talking about |
01:38:18 | preglow | sure |
01:38:20 | talking-head | during my opto-out searches |
01:38:23 | preglow | it gets mentioned from time to time |

01:59:31 | SpAwN | excellent |

02:00:18 | barrywardell_ | dan_a: I guess I could do that. Why do interrupts need to be disabled before booting? |

02:00:49 | SpAwN | cop patch! |
02:01:39 | dan_a | barrywardell_: I think that the iPods wouldn't boot with them enabled - I don't know whether that holds true for the other PP targets, I guess some testing is in order |

02:05:46 | HoffmannP | hy |
02:05:48 | dan_a | barrywardell_: It looks nice and simple. My problem with it would be that sleep implies yielding, and even if it works at the moment it might lead to some confused developers in the future. Though I don't suppose they would be any more confused than at the moment! |

02:07:41 | HoffmannP | What do we already have? |
02:07:47 | jhulst | Not a whole lot |
02:07:58 | jhulst | I looked through the wiki and that's pretty much it |
02:08:01 | SpAwN | dan_a, ahh well thats good to know...that will plan b :-) |
02:08:25 | jhulst | First off, do you guys have 60 gb or the 30gb? |
02:08:34 | xenon2434 | 30gb |
02:08:45 | HoffmannP | 30gb |
02:08:45 | amiconn | dan_a: I would expect a sleep using the microsecond timer to be dead simple, and it would also yield like the full blown version |
02:09:02 | jhulst | shoot, I have the 60, makes me wonder how much difference there is |
02:09:14 | xenon2434 | well, i dont think they are too different |
02:09:21 | HoffmannP | probably not too much |
02:09:25 | xenon2434 | there is the usb host function, which has some differences inside |
02:09:28 | dan_a | barrywardell_: I think so - a quick grep for create_thread doesn't turn anything up |
02:09:31 | xenon2434 | theres also separate firmware |
02:09:46 | xenon2434 | but as far as the actual differences in hardware and firmware, probably not much |
02:09:50 | HoffmannP | anyone has a collection of files I could put on the wiki? |

02:09:58 | dan_a | amiconn: Excellent - barrywardell_: there's your answer, from a smarter man than me! |
02:10:15 | HoffmannP | Like Firmware? |
02:10:36 | xenon2434 | i mean, we could get the actual firmware files from creative's site |
02:10:47 | xenon2434 | but we havent managed to do anything with them yet |
02:11:08 | HoffmannP | but a collection of older firmware would be god as well |
02:11:16 | barrywardell_ | amiconn: could you elaborate a bit? |
02:11:32 | HoffmannP | do we now whats on that circuit? Beside the Texas Instrument Chip? |
02:11:43 | preglow | amiconn: would you kill me if i modified sound.c to enable stuff like sw tone controls for sims? there'll be more #ifdef SIM but i don't think it'll be too unmanagable |
02:11:53 | HoffmannP | Anyone disconnected the HDD and checked that? |
02:12:09 | preglow | but it does involve making sim use most of the ordinary functions, not the current stubs |
02:12:11 | xenon2434 | i personally havent, but i know of a few people who did |
02:12:15 | jhulst | There are some decent sites that have it taken apart, as of yet, I have not done any disassembling of my own |
02:12:25 | jhulst | I'll look for the sites a second |

02:15:06 | preglow | amiconn: what things? |
02:15:22 | xenon2434 | alright, who has a good scanner and could get good scans of all the hardware? |
02:15:39 | amiconn | This scheduler copies back and forth between obscure lists and pretty much relies on a working tick |
02:15:56 | jhulst | I have a scanner and I live 40 minutes from the person with the machine so it would be cheap to ship it here |
02:16:06 | preglow | amiconn: is relying on a working tick so bad? |
02:16:13 | xenon2434 | oh yah, thats perfect! |
02:16:18 | preglow | : done |
02:16:28 | jhulst | What do you think HoffmanP? |
02:16:32 | barrywardell_ | preglow: i think it depends on interrupts, which are disabled in the bootloader |
02:16:34 | HoffmannP | aren't their allready scans out there? what ever, make sure to post the info, it's unnesecary |
02:16:35 | dan_a | SpAwN: Post any errors up on pastebin.ca and post the link in here - I'll have a look for you |
02:16:38 | amiconn | In th esimple scheduler sleep was pretty much just a while loop which just switched thread immediately until the end of sleep was reached |

02:16:52 | xenon2434 | i dont think there are actual scans yet |

02:17:59 | barrywardell_ | amiconn: how about this: http://pastebin.ca/377820 |
02:18:09 | amiconn | The gigabeat bootloader already defines a sleep() without yield. I don't think that's good,, even though the current bootloaders only use a single thread |
02:18:13 | HoffmannP | sorry, unnecesseary for other ppl to do the same |
02:18:34 | barrywardell_ | amiconn: it works for me here |
02:18:37 | preglow | amiconn: which is good, if you ask me. let's keep the bootloaders simple |

02:19:20 | Soap | SpAwN: kernel on cop needs to be patched with the -p1 option |
02:19:30 | | Part Mikachu |
02:19:31 | HoffmannP | jhulst: lets do it, but make it public for everybody |
02:19:36 | jhulst | No problem |
02:19:45 | Soap | patch -p1 < /YourPathHere/kocop11.2.diff |
02:19:47 | HoffmannP | jhulst: just read about it in rockbox forum |
02:19:47 | jhulst | As soon as I get them, they will go on the wiki, that was my first plan |
02:19:48 | amiconn | preglow: I'm not saying bootloaders should use more threads, but it means different code with different behaviour between core and bootloaders, and this difference isn't obvious from the bootloader source |
02:19:54 | SpAwN | Soap, oOoO ok let me try it with the p1 thanks |
02:19:54 | amiconn | It's buried in firmware/ |

02:22:54 | xenon2434 | that sounds great |
02:23:05 | xenon2434 | i did at one point, but they were pretty unhelpful |

02:23:17 | jhulst | Yup |

02:28:42 | | Quit kickenchicken ("CGI:IRC (Ping timeout)") |
02:28:50 | n1s | xenon2434: basically you'd need documentation of the hardware, like datasheets for the various components and a way to run your own code on the player (for example a way to encrypt firmware so the player will run it) a schematic of the PCB(s) would probably be nice too, basically get as much info as you can, but Creative will most likely give you none of these things |
02:29:07 | xenon2434 | great! i can try at least |
02:29:14 | HoffmannP | there are no plugins, are there? |
02:29:25 | Llorean | xenon2434: The single most important thing is figuring out how to get the player to accept your own code, I think. Followed by any information about the various chips in it you can possibly get. |

02:33:05 | webguest97 | favoriteZEN: Well I am guessing you need to write just a lil code for the DSP core, reverse engineer one of the .exe firmware updates, which will have most of the code. Take some of the code from the games for the Ipod and just change it to work on the ZV:M |

02:39:16 | saratoga | i looked at the Vision:M firmware ages ago to see how feasible a port is |
02:39:23 | saratoga | i don't even think they use encryption |

02:39:55 | Llorean | jhulst: You can never really guess, you'll have to look at the hardware components and see. |

02:57:14 | preglow | has anyone ever managed to brick one doing a regular update? |
02:57:25 | Llorean | jhulst: One of the most important things is to learn if the player has any method for recovering from a bad firmware install, and how to install your own code as 'firmware' |

02:58:18 | preglow | jhulst: or you need to connect a unit up with jtag |
02:58:29 | preglow | this if for when you will inevitably kill your unit with bad code |
02:58:52 | preglow | then you need to find out how to get code to execute on the device, for this you'll need to analyse a lot of firmware |
02:59:02 | preglow | in parallel, people should find out exactly what is in the dap |
02:59:06 | | Quit kickenchicken ("CGI:IRC (Ping timeout)") |
02:59:10 | Brandonson112 | Llorean: bad firmware can be recovered through the reload firmware option in the recovery mode |
02:59:11 | preglow | how stuff are connected, etc |
02:59:14 | | Quit griphiam (Remote closed the connection) |
02:59:23 | Llorean | Brandonson112: So there is a recovery mode, this is good to know. |
02:59:26 | favoriteZEN | Alright, according to some statements made by some members of RockBox, and from some other testing, the unit boots off of built in chips, and the hard drive is ONLY for media |
02:59:37 | Llorean | Brandonson112: So, if you interrupt a firmware flash, you can enter that mode? |
02:59:38 | preglow | favoriteZEN: no surprise |
02:59:52 | favoriteZEN | It can start up without a harddrive, so you could run a dual OS |
02:59:57 | preglow | ghah, this arm core even has the dsp instrucitons |
03:00 |
03:00:00 | preglow | i'm envious |
03:00:06 | favoriteZEN | lol |
03:00:34 | Brandonson112 | Llorean: im not sure but by pressing a button and holding while starting up it will enter recovery mode |
03:00:37 | | Quit jaebird (SendQ exceeded) |
03:00:46 | favoriteZEN | Yes |
03:00:57 | Brandonson112 | Llorean: i believe its the reset button and the power button |
03:00:59 | favoriteZEN | you hit the reset and hold the power |
03:01:12 | Llorean | Brandonson112: The trick is, to get it to load Rockbox, if it doesn't load the firmware from disk every boot, you're going to have to add _something_ to flash, which means you need to be prepared for that something you add to flash to not work. |
03:01:36 | Llorean | Brandonson112: So you need a method of recovering from flashing a firmware image that prevents the player from running. |

03:01:40 | xenon2434 | i gotta get out of here guys, if someone could post the log on epizenter so we can all read that would be awesome |
03:01:49 | Llorean | xenon2434: The logs are all posted at rockbox.org |
03:02:02 | xenon2434 | okay great, thank |
03:02:06 | favoriteZEN | Could we not get that to test the code on another player that boots off of hard drive? |
03:02:07 | jhulst | xenon2434: The wiki will now be the main development page as well |
03:02:08 | xenon2434 | night all, talk to you later |
03:02:09 | Llorean | xenon2434: And all Rockbox discussion should be done in the Rockbox forum thread, not other forum |
03:02:11 | favoriteZEN | bye |
03:02:40 | Llorean | favoriteZEN: Do you know of another player that has 100% identical hardware to the Zen Vision M, but boots off the HD? |
03:02:41 | | Quit xenon2434 ("CGI:IRC (EOF)") |
03:03:20 | | Quit roolku () |
03:03:38 | jhulst | Do we know that the Zen doesn't boot off the HD? |
03:03:39 | | Quit kickenchicken (Client Quit) |
03:03:44 | favoriteZEN | Well, there is a player, that has the same processing cores as the ZV:M, you could try it on that. It doesnt have a hard drive, its a flash video player. |
03:03:44 | saratoga | preglow: yeah the reason I was interested in this chip last year was because of the cpu power, it does something like 6 MACs a clock, plus the ridiculously fast main core |
03:04:02 | preglow | six macs a clock would be fast even for a dsp |
03:04:03 | favoriteZEN | Wait |
03:04:06 | Llorean | favoriteZEN: That doesn't sound 100% identical. |
03:04:24 | Llorean | favoriteZEN: Particularly because it has a different storage medium, and one of the things your bootloader will need is a driver for the disk. |
03:04:49 | saratoga | the DMS320 is supposed to be pretty fast, IIRC its made with MPEG4/H.264 decoding in mind |
03:04:52 | Llorean | favoriteZEN: When I said 100% identical, I meant every single piece of hardware is the same, hooked up in the same way. |
03:05:11 | saratoga | so it has lots of MACs, though offhand I forget the details, and the pdf I found last year on ASU's site is down |
03:05:21 | saratoga | i just recall being amazed |
03:05:30 | favoriteZEN | Alright |
03:05:41 | *** | Saving seen data "./dancer.seen" |
03:05:42 | jhulst | So in you're opinion, this will be a good port if we get it going? |
03:05:43 | preglow | saratoga: i'm not an expert, so it might very well be true |
03:05:45 | favoriteZEN | It has a HDD made by hitachi, which does some Zen hard drives |
03:05:48 | Llorean | jhulst: Well, supposedly it's booted without a disk in, but I personally don't know. |
03:06:14 | Llorean | jhulst: I'm just saying that if the firmware isn't on the HD, and loaded into RAM from the HD each boot, you're going to need your very own in-flash loader, which means you need a way to recover from bad code being flashed |
03:06:35 | jhulst | Llorean: Okay, I understand now |
03:06:50 | | Part n1s |
03:07:06 | favoriteZEN | It has the same loading of the ZV:M off of the built in RAM |
03:07:06 | Llorean | jhulst: My point to favoriteZEN is that you cannot test bootloader code on another machine, unless that machine happens to be internally 100% identical to the one you're testing for. |
03:07:37 | jhulst | Llorean: I completely agree, I was just wondering if we had proof that it did not boot off the hard drive |
03:07:37 | | Quit webguest69 ("CGI:IRC (EOF)") |
03:08:26 | Llorean | jhulst: favoriteZEN mentioned it, but hasn't provided a link. It should be pretty easy to find out though: Is there a system folder or anything (may be hidden or even marked as system files), or a mysterious extra partition that doesn't have a filesystem? |
03:08:51 | favoriteZEN | It does not boot off of the HDD, the Zen will start WITHOUT a hard drive |
03:08:59 | favoriteZEN | A member of Epizenter started his without the HDD |
03:09:11 | Brandonson112 | yeah there is flash memory for the firmware on the mb |
03:09:13 | saratoga | preglow: looking online, most of the 320 cores seem to have 2 MACs, so I could be remembering wrong |
03:10:05 | Llorean | favoriteZEN: That just means at least part of the boot process is in flash. |
03:10:13 | saratoga | well if it can start without the hard disk, then you should be pretty safe |
03:10:22 | saratoga | figure out how to run your own ARM code on it |
03:10:37 | Llorean | favoriteZEN: For example, the Archoses will run firmware from flash, but if a newer firmware is on the HD load it instead, but not flash it. |
03:10:37 | saratoga | did any of those people doing firmware hacks ever get that sorted out? |
03:10:45 | saratoga | because if so, that'd be a great place to start |
03:10:46 | favoriteZEN | All of it is |
03:10:59 | favoriteZEN | It will boot up to the regluar GUI |
03:11:09 | jhulst | saratoga: I'll check it out, I'm not sure how far they got |
03:11:11 | favoriteZEN | but as soon as it does, it will go into recovery |
03:11:17 | Llorean | favoriteZEN: Yes, and as I just said, a full firmware image in flash doesn't mean anything on its own. |
03:11:21 | favoriteZEN | and ask you to format the hard drive |
03:11:43 | Llorean | favoriteZEN: Please, try to type in whole sentences, and try to read what people say to you. |

03:12:40 | jhulst | Brandonson112: Thanks for your help as well |
03:12:45 | favoriteZEN | Well, I only have 100k, so it takes about 15 sec, for me to see what I type, and other people type in the chat box |
03:13:04 | | Quit Brandonson112 ("CGI:IRC") |
03:13:04 | preglow | jhulst: you're welcome, always fun with new ports |
03:14:07 | Llorean | jhulst: I think the main things to start with is just going to be getting the datasheets on chips, and coming up with a safe way to try out firmwares. That means finding out what the recovery mode is capable, and whether it's protected from being overwritten by a firmware flash |
03:14:42 | favoriteZEN | Well, that would be hard to test, without damaging the unit itself |
03:15:16 | jhulst | Llorean: Someone had mentioned JTAG, I looked it up a little, could you give me an example, I haven't heard of that before |
03:15:35 | Llorean | favoriteZEN: Well, you either figure out a way to find out, or you find out by trying to recover from a bad bootloader. In the end, you WILL find out if it's possible to have software-based recovery. |
03:16:14 | Llorean | jhulst: It's a kind of hardware interface, that will let you reprogram the unit from your computer in the case of a bad flash. A recovery and debugging tool. I think. Honestly, I'm not 100% certain myself. |
03:16:39 | Llorean | jhulst: But in the case of the recovery mode not doing the trick, you'll need to learn more than I know about it, I should say. |
03:16:45 | toffe | the jtag is also use to debug program direct on the cpu |
03:17:08 | favoriteZEN | I know that the Zen will run without the hard drive, also if there is a problem on the hard drive, it will ask you to reformat. It also can reload firmware so if you run into a problem you can reload the origional firmware. |
03:17:31 | favoriteZEN | All in the recovery menu |
03:17:32 | jhulst | toffe: How do you interact with it? Through the USB connection, is there a site that I can look at |
03:19:01 | | Quit Thundercloud (Remote closed the connection) |
03:19:04 | toffe | you need an interface , the simplest one go through the parallel port, or you can buy some which connect to the usb, after you have to find the software opencd is a free one but only for arm I think |
03:19:44 | jhulst | okay, thanks |
03:20:06 | toffe | do you have good picture of the board ? |
03:20:14 | favoriteZEN | If you damage the flash chips firmware upload, as long as you dont damage the recovery menu, you can easily revert back to the origional firmware |
03:20:27 | jhulst | http://www.anythingbutipod.com/archives/2006/02/how-to-disassemble-the-creative-zen-vision-m.php |
03:20:32 | jhulst | That is the best we have so far |
03:20:40 | jhulst | I am working on getting the scanning going |
03:22:23 | saratoga | looking around online, it seems like this chip or varients of it are used in countless different products and even some research/accademic stuff |
03:22:30 | saratoga | datasheets must be out there for it |
03:22:41 | Llorean | saratoga: We have a page in our wiki listing several MP3 players that seem to use it, or variants |
03:22:56 | Llorean | saratoga: The big problem is the lack of compiler for the DSP part of it, really. |
03:22:58 | saratoga | might be worth going onto various mailing lists and seeing if anyone there will slip a copy of it to us |
03:23:01 | jhulst | There is a pdf of the datasheet I believe, but it is backwards |
03:23:14 | toffe | you have to check first if there is a connector missing (a row of solder point,) on the gigabeat F,S and zune, you can see it easely on the board |
03:23:36 | saratoga | Llorean: I'm actually thinking more about how to actually run code on the chip, IE register maps and such |
03:24:02 | saratoga | theres plenty of people using these chips, so maybe we can get one of them to tell us about it |
03:25:36 | jhulst | toffe: and that missing connector will be the parallel port? |
03:25:52 | Llorean | saratoga: Ah, gotcha. |
03:25:58 | toffe | no , it will be perhaps a jtag or a console port |
03:26:44 | jhulst | okay |
03:29:45 | saratoga | "Second generation TMS320 user’s guide" <=== instock in the building next door to me |
03:29:52 | saratoga | i'm going to walk over and take a look |
03:31:06 | | Quit saratoga ("CGI:IRC (EOF)") |
03:33:25 | jhulst | Llorean: How likely is it that the port will be possible and how hard do you think it will be with this particular device? |
03:34:27 | Llorean | jhulst: I can't speak for the second part. How hard it is depends entirely on what kind of information you're able to gather about different components. |
03:34:58 | Llorean | jhulst: As for whether it's possible, as long as you can find a way to make the player load your own code, it's possible. The rest is just a matter of how much you and others can put into getting it done. |
03:41:57 | toffe | if you search on ebay : zen m vision as is , you will find some broken one,perhaps you could buy one to open it and work on the hardware |
03:42:25 | jhulst | We have a broken one that is being donated |
03:42:43 | toffe | example : this one as a broken lcd 120092908633 |
03:42:45 | jhulst | The only thing broken on it is the screen |
03:42:53 | toffe | ok |
03:43:49 | toffe | Like I said this morning, I bought a tool to take of cpu and memory of the board, if you need it I can do it. So after you can trace all the signal |
03:44:38 | jhulst | okay, |
03:54:10 | toffe | you can put this on the wiki , if not already in : http://pinouts.ru/PDA/zen-vision-dock_pinout.shtml |

04:01:03 | Llorean | icantusefizz: And how, exactly, are the AIFF files tagged? |
04:01:21 | icantusefizz | What do you mean? |
04:01:50 | Llorean | The 'Database' is a database of metadata. File tags. I'm not even sure there is a tagging format for AIFF, but that's something I'm uncertain of. |
04:03:28 | icantusefizz | Well, im only on my third day of rockbox, and i set up the database view for my files on my ipod. Every file shows up, except files that are AIFF format. |
04:03:40 | | Quit Arathis ("Bye, bye") |
04:04:00 | icantusefizz | When my ipod is connected to my laptop the AIFF files show up. |
04:04:05 | Llorean | icantusefizz: You've already said all that. File tagging itself has nothing to do with Rockbox. |
04:04:41 | icantusefizz | Oh |
04:04:47 | icantusefizz | What is file tagging then |
04:04:57 | Llorean | Like ID3 tags for MP3 files |
04:05:04 | Llorean | It's information that stores Artist, Album, Genre, etc. |
04:05:05 | icantusefizz | ohhh |
04:05:08 | icantusefizz | hold on i'll check |
04:05:12 | Llorean | iTunes stores them in a database. |

04:15:15 | icantusefizz | ok, so when i look in my ipod (as the drive, not under itunes) and look at where the actual music files are, all the files are 4 letters like CRSG or similar, and it seems like only some of them will show details like song and album in the detailed file view |
04:15:27 | SpAwN | Llorean, yea i figured it might be like that. :( ..but i wasn sure if the ipod did it or if it was just a out port that the accesory did all the work. |
04:15:47 | Llorean | icantusefizz: Any of them that won't are likely to show up under the big <Untagged> category in the database then |
04:16:27 | Llorean | SpAwN: Even then, Rockbox would still have to be able to talk to the accessory to tell it to do all the work, and right now Rockbox can't talk to accessories at all. If they use more than line in, line out, and power, as I said, they don't work. |
04:17:03 | icantusefizz | What is the easiest way to get them where they belong? |
04:17:25 | Llorean | icantusefizz: Find a program that can properly add tags, and tag them all. |
04:18:20 | icantusefizz | ok, do you have any suggestions on what program might be good for that? |
04:19:29 | Llorean | icantusefizz: No clue. As I said before, I'm not even wholly sure AIFF can be tagged. |

04:28:31 | hcs | SpAwN: yeah, the one I have is a white cylinder, that's what I meant, so I don't know about your specific model, though I would expect it to work |
04:28:41 | Soap | griffin's model # if you know. |
04:29:09 | SpAwN | hcs, interesting. i complied from svn tonight. so i have the newest. did you have to do anything special? |
04:29:21 | saratoga | icantusefizz: if you want to use lossless, flac is a good choice, if you want to use lossy, MP3 is a good choice since its widely compatable and well supported in rockbox |
04:29:22 | SpAwN | and hcs what ipod?... i have a 30 gig video |
04:29:50 | SpAwN | Soap, pav4026 is thw only #'s i see on the itrip |
04:29:53 | Soap | I was under the impression Griffin was one of the worst about releasing multiple products with the same name, but different model #s is why I asked. |
04:30:23 | hcs | SpAwN: 60 gb photo, I did nothing special, it only plugged into the headphone jack and remote control thing on front, so the interface to the hardware is probably entirely different |
04:30:36 | hcs | *remote control thing on top |
04:30:49 | SpAwN | ah hcs mine goes in the usb port |

04:38:29 | hcs | Soap: no, I don't have the packaging |
04:38:30 | Soap | and is that jack next to the headphone called the "remote" port? |
04:38:48 | hcs | Soap: I'm calling it that because I didn't have a better name, I think that's what it's for |
04:39:25 | Soap | cool |
04:39:58 | saratoga | the archopen people have teh data sheet for the tms320dsc24 |
04:40:03 | Soap | the one which looks like yours but has an LCD screen is reported _not_ to work. Glad to add yours to the table. |

07:15:31 | merwin | Hi |
07:16:56 | merwin | I've got a couple questions... I've got the Sansa E200R, and noticed that someone cracked the code for it. I tried setting everything up according to the instructions on the wiki. The only thing I changed was using the E200R bootloader as opposed to the E200 one |
07:17:13 | merwin | I still get the "Failed to load main boot image" message when I boot |
07:17:27 | merwin | Is support for the e200r working yet? |
07:21:49 | Llorean | Support for the e200 isn't even working properly yet. |
07:22:20 | Llorean | It's intended for developers only, overall. |
07:22:45 | merwin | Yeah, understand that |
07:22:59 | merwin | just trying to get it to boot, now that there is a bootloader for the e200r |
07:24:25 | Llorean | Have you followed the progress of R work in the forum thread, or did you just 'hear' that 'the code' was cracked, and decide to just try something? |
07:24:26 | | Quit desowin ("use linux") |
07:24:36 | merwin | I've been following it, read all of the threads |
07:25:00 | merwin | From what I understand, all I need to do is flash the e200r bootloader, and extract the latest e200 build to the root of the player |
07:25:16 | merwin | along with putting the OF.bin that I made from the sansa firmware in the /system folder |
07:25:40 | Llorean | If you've been following the thread thoroughly, it's mentioned there that R support still isn't working properly. |
07:26:07 | Llorean | If you intend to help with development, that thread is something you should keep very careful track of. |

08:08:10 | rkMerafel | Sorry to bother everyone |
08:08:16 | LinusN | the menu isn't something you "leave" |
08:08:21 | amiconn | And when setting another screen as startup screen, then calling the root menu, the cursor isn't placed on the item I came from |
08:08:22 | rkMerafel | But could someone help me with this |
08:08:34 | rkMerafel | I'm not very tech-y. |
08:08:43 | LinusN | amiconn: that would probably be a nice thing |
08:09:13 | amiconn | ...so to go back where I came from by accident, I have to navigate the menu |

08:09:24 | | Part Drkepilogue |
08:09:37 | rkMerafel | Well, I installed rockbox as it said to on the installation page |
08:09:43 | LinusN | amiconn: i think preselecting the last choice, or the screen you came from, might be a good idea |
08:09:44 | rkMerafel | On an iriver h10 btw |
08:10:02 | rkMerafel | And it all worked fine, I've got the funny new menu |
08:10:18 | rkMerafel | Except it won't go into files or database |
08:10:34 | Llorean | LinusN: I think maybe 'Menu' should toggle the Root menu. If you came to it from somewhere, a second press should return you there. |
08:10:34 | rkMerafel | It just says "database is not ready" |
08:10:47 | Llorean | rkMerafel: It says that for files too? |
08:10:51 | amiconn | LinusN: It is as soon as the menu was used once, but not when first entering it from a set startup screen |
08:10:57 | LinusN | Llorean: maybe that isn't such a bad idea |
08:11:15 | rkMerafel | On files it goes into a directory that has a Text folder and a rockbox app |
08:11:20 | Llorean | LinusN: I think it's a very friendly behaviour. |
08:11:36 | LinusN | Llorean, amiconn: i think you're right |
08:11:54 | Llorean | rkMerafel: That would be the root of your device, probably in the "Supported" show files mode. |
08:12:08 | Llorean | rkMerafel: Database won't be ready until you use the Initialize option for it as described in the manual. |
08:12:09 | LinusN | rkMerafel: could it be that the music directory is hidden? |
08:12:42 | rkMerafel | Er |
08:12:57 | rkMerafel | "Initialize"? |
08:13:11 | LinusN | rkMerafel: also described in the manual |
08:13:42 | rkMerafel | Right |
08:14:19 | LinusN | what is on your device when you connect it to the computer? |
08:14:38 | LinusN | are there more folders than the TEXT folder? |
08:15:08 | rkMerafel | Yeah |
08:15:20 | rkMerafel | There's like 18GB of music |
08:15:44 | Llorean | He means, visible in the root of the device, I believe |
08:15:47 | LinusN | in which folder? |
08:15:53 | rkMerafel | Music |
08:16:10 | Llorean | rkMerafel: Is it MTP or UMS? |
08:16:12 | LinusN | ok, so the "Music" folder isn't shown in the file browser? |
08:16:20 | rkMerafel | Not on the device, no. |
08:16:31 | rkMerafel | I've done the "initialize" thing as it said to in the manual |

08:17:35 | amiconn | Huh? |

08:24:24 | LinusN | what a total jerk |
08:24:29 | Shaid | I can't get in there. |
08:24:38 | Shaid | but I saw what he said saved in a pastebin by someone |
08:24:40 | LinusN | however, i think at least one of his posts should be answered |
08:24:42 | scorche | and wrong pn so many points... |
08:25:00 | scorche | LinusN: soap sent him a blow by blow PM |
08:25:18 | Llorean | LinusN: I answered him, to an extent, rather more politely than warranted even. |
08:25:28 | LinusN | where is that reply? |
08:25:39 | Llorean | LinusN: I PMed him, I'll forward to you. |
08:25:57 | LinusN | how come we don't reply in public? |
08:26:21 | scorche | because in public, he is a bloody spammer whose posts get deleted |
08:26:28 | Llorean | LinusN: Or better yet, http://www.pastebin.ca/378087 |
08:26:59 | LinusN | scorche: yes, duplicate posts should be deleted, but i think at least one of his ramblings should stay, and be replied to |
08:27:24 | merwin | LinusN: Is there anything I can do to help get rockbox running on the E200R? |
08:27:25 | LinusN | just sliently deleting it looks like abuse of power to me |
08:27:28 | Llorean | LinusN: His posts were already removed by the time I returned from dinner. But his posts didn't belong in the Zune thread anyway, which I explained in my response to him. |
08:27:34 | scorche | not sure why the original one was...i believe saratoga was the one who started |
08:27:56 | scorche | probably the wrong section was the reason |
08:28:30 | Llorean | LinusN: I think the fact that his posts were blatantly breaking the specific guidelines for the New Ports forums and were off topic for the thread they were posted in was reason enough for deletion, without beginning to take into account the tone or delivery of his message. |
08:28:41 | GodEater | can someone give me a rundown on what his beef was (I'm burning with curiousity now) |
08:28:49 | Llorean | LinusN: But I think my response is a mostly good one, and it does offer to take up proper discussion of any points he feels important in a better place. |
08:29:12 | LinusN | GodEater: his beef was that we should port Rockbox to Zune, because it is a popularo target |
08:29:41 | GodEater | ah - a sort of "drop everything else you're doing and listen to me dammit!" post ? |
08:30:04 | scorche | GodEater: http://www.pastebin.ca/378088 |
08:30:18 | Llorean | GodEater: He also felt we were hypocrites for being against copyright infringement but supposedly doing so ourselves, and a few other things. |
08:31:06 | LinusN | i think it's bad to leave his accusations unanswered, and only talk about breaking the rules |
08:31:58 | scorche | they werent unanswered..as i said, soap replied to each point |
08:32:08 | GodEater | LinusN: I tend to agree there actually - he may be wrong on any number of points - but he wasn't flagrantly abusive IMO |
08:32:36 | LinusN | scorche: not publically |
08:32:54 | JdGordon | "I swear you people need to get a life." < the best part :D |
08:33:15 | Llorean | GodEater: I think stating that many of the admins can't even spell GED (and I resisted the urge to point out any of his spelling errors) is a form of abuse. |
08:33:20 | scorche | well, if he listens to Llorean, he will post a civilized post int he correct place that we can respond to |

08:33:53 | Llorean | GED is a highschool equivalency exam. |
08:34:01 | Shaid | ah. |
08:34:14 | scorche | yeah...i guessed that too, but i still have never heard that phrasing before |
08:34:19 | Aaron | Sorry to interupt, but are the Archos Jukebox's the only DAP that uses at 2.5 inch drive? |
08:34:30 | scorche | that rockbox currently supports, yes |
08:34:33 | amiconn | Hrmm, on the player Stop which goes up file system levels also goes file browser->main menu. I don't think that's good |
08:35:12 | LinusN | amiconn: it's the same as left-to-root on the other platforms |
08:35:19 | Aaron | Do you think the 90 dB SNR on the Archos is noticably worse than a DAP with 95 or 96? |
08:35:27 | amiconn | hmmmmm...... |
08:35:44 | Aaron | And does the SNR affect just the headphone output or also the Line Out of a player? |
08:35:57 | | Part rkMerafel |
08:36:28 | Llorean | LinusN: You are welcome to move his post to the general discussion forum and respond to it, of course. |
08:36:34 | amiconn | Aaron: I don't know which actual daps you are referring to, but e.g. the archos recorder is significantly less noise than e.g. the iriver h100 series |
08:36:43 | LinusN | Llorean: i'm tempted to do that |
08:37:02 | amiconn | LinusN: Yes, but on other platforms you can go any level->root with long Left |
08:37:20 | amiconn | ...which won't be possible with long Stop on player of course |
08:37:26 | LinusN | amiconn: ah, right |
08:37:35 | JdGordon | amiconn: fix the player keymap then... just put ACTION_TREE_STOP there instead of ACTION_STD_CANCEL |
08:37:49 | Aaron | Wait, so the Archos Jukebox sounds better than the h100? I thought a higher SNR was better |
08:37:52 | amiconn | ACTION_TREE_STOP would be wrong |
08:38:07 | Shaid | SNR isn't everything |
08:38:15 | JdGordon | ... or other way around :p |
08:38:43 | * | JdGordon gone... have a good week end all |
08:38:47 | | Quit JdGordon ("Konversation terminated!") |
08:39:19 | Aaron | So a higher SNR is better though right? |
08:40:14 | amiconn | It usually is, but then don't take all the numbers dap manufacturers tell you for granted |
08:41:02 | amiconn | I doubt that the H100's real snr comes even near 80dB snr, at least not with the headphone output |
08:41:40 | Aaron | The h100 has a 80db SNR? Numbers wise isn't that horrible compared the Archo's JBR? |
08:42:12 | Llorean | Aaron: There's no reason to fixate solely on the SNR. |
08:42:40 | Aaron | Okay. Do any of you know if the sound output of the Archos will be as good as that of an Ipod Video? |
08:42:51 | scorche | much better IMO |
08:43:01 | scorche | going by headphone jack |
08:43:25 | Aaron | Would you reccomend going for the V2 of the Recorder model, or the original? |

08:56:13 | Llorean | A lot of them stay around, for a long time. |
08:56:43 | B4gder | hm, seems the forums and/or my network is dog slow this morning |
08:56:53 | Llorean | But the New Ports section has generally been treated very strict, so I think the response at the time was in line with the standard for that forum: Non-development posts get trimmed. |
08:56:53 | GodEater | it's the forums as usual |
08:56:55 | bluebrother | forums are slow for me too |
08:57:01 | Llorean | I don't think it was relating to the ranting itself. |
08:57:10 | merwin | B4gder: Is there anything I can do to help get the e200r firmware working? I assume that you personally don't have one. |
08:57:25 | LinusN | a public polite answer to a rambling is often effective, as it really shows that the poster is an ass |
08:57:44 | bluebrother | afk |
08:57:56 | B4gder | merwin: a first test would be to generate an mi4 without the "full plaintext" trick to see if that works |
08:58:29 | merwin | B4gder: How to do that? |
08:59:08 | B4gder | merwin: you need to use mi4code manually |
08:59:22 | merwin | B4gder: BTW, I used the mi4code to decrypt and then re-encrypt the sansa e200r firmware and it loaded fine |
08:59:31 | B4gder | ah |
08:59:36 | LinusN | regarding the name of the root menu, i think "Main menu" is the best. it's short and descriptive |
08:59:42 | B4gder | merwin: that's very good news |
09:00 |
09:00:06 | LinusN | hey, even "Menu" would be good |
09:00:15 | B4gder | merwin: hm, did that use a "blank" DSA signature then? |
09:00:22 | merwin | B4gder: However, decrypting the e200 firmware and re-encrypting it with the rhapsody encryption did not work. I got the error on booting |
09:00:39 | B4gder | yes |
09:00:41 | B4gder | that's expected |
09:00:49 | merwin | blank dsa signature? |
09:00:59 | B4gder | it isn't only the encryption that differs, there's also a different "magic" number in the mi4 |
09:01:25 | B4gder | merwin: there's a DSA signature in the mi4 files |
09:01:48 | B4gder | so I wanted to understand what DSA you used in the re-encrypted one that worked |
09:02:15 | GodEater | does anyone think it's worth point out to Mr. Angry that *most* open source efforts revolve around the PC platform - where you spend money on hardware only once really. Our project is different because every time someone wants a new port, someone somewhere has to go and shell out at least for the player, and in some cases on esoteric stuff like JTAG connectors and whatknot? |
09:02:19 | merwin | i just used the following: mi4code decrypt e200r_pp5022.mi4 e200r_pp5022.mi4.decryped |
09:02:32 | merwin | mi4code encrypt e200r_pp5022.mi4 e200r_pp5022.mi4.rhapsody rhapsody |
09:02:38 | GodEater | I mean - unless you all feel that's just stating the obvious? |
09:02:47 | LinusN | GodEater: that's a good point, let's save that ammo for his angry reply :-) |

09:17:05 | merwin | hm... is it easy to do? |
09:17:06 | B4gder | but still |
09:17:22 | B4gder | we should first make sure mi4code build builds an image of the same size that works |
09:17:29 | merwin | true |
09:17:46 | B4gder | I mean, the DSA signing should be the last thing we attempt |
09:18:04 | merwin | there's some other options in build, like the header and plaintext length |
09:18:34 | merwin | the file size is exactly 1024 bytes different |
09:18:40 | merwin | old vs new |
09:18:46 | B4gder | ... and the mi4 header is 1024 bytes... |
09:20:15 | merwin | but the stripped/decrypted version is only 512 bytes smaller |
09:20:44 | B4gder | right, I was wrong the header is 512 bytes |
09:20:57 | B4gder | the mi4 files are always padded to aligned 1024 bytes |
09:21:39 | merwin | should i be changing the plaintext length or the header? |
09:22:00 | merwin | when i build |
09:23:17 | B4gder | I think you should debug the reason why it builds a larger image |

09:30:19 | B4gder | the new one should too, as the mi4 header is in the first ~68 bytes |
09:33:02 | merwin | I think the difference i'm seeing is the lack of the signature |
09:34:02 | merwin | is it supposed to do any actual encryption when i use the build command? |

09:34:14 | B4gder | good question |
09:34:22 | B4gder | I don't remember |
09:34:54 | merwin | it looks like the resulting file after "build" is just the decrypted file with a header and padding at the end (along with some other little changes which i think are probably trivial) |

09:43:10 | JerryLange | why can i not load the newest current version of rockbox into my simulator? |
09:43:32 | B4gder | you don't load rockbox "into" any simulator |
09:43:44 | B4gder | the simulator is rockbox, simulated |
09:44:13 | dan_a | B4gder, merwin: I've got to run now, but I've just tried decrypting (and stripping) the Rhapsody firmware to give raw version 1, re-building it, and then decrypting and stripping it again to give raw version 2. The two raw versions differ, so something is going wrong somewhere... |
09:44:41 | JerryLange | ok what i want to clarify is i download a current version of rockbox. put it in my simulator folder D:\Zip Files\Rockbox\ipod-video-sim-w32\archos\.rockbox and i get errors. when its loading |
09:45:01 | Llorean | JerryLange: That's because the simulator IS rockbox. |
09:45:15 | Llorean | JerryLange: The rockbox.iriver or rockbox.ipod or whatever file is the same as the simulator executable. |
09:45:26 | merwin | dan_a: good to know it's just me |
09:45:28 | Llorean | JerryLange: You have to build a new simulator, you can't just copy a build to it. |
09:45:46 | JerryLange | ok thats what i figured, but i had to ask |
09:46:56 | LinusN | JerryLange: the simulator doesn't simulate the hardware, it's just a version of rockbox that runs on your pc |
09:47:38 | | Part Llorean |
09:47:44 | JerryLange | ok. thanks alot for your help |
09:47:55 | LinusN | the main purpose of the simulator is to be able to run it in a debugger, for developing |

11:08:04 | amiconn | LinusN: Does the fact that you want h1x0 rtc support in configure mean that you changed your opinion regarding mod selection in configure in general? |
11:08:25 | LinusN | what do you mean? |
11:08:46 | amiconn | I think that e.g. selecting an (a)dvanced build instead of a (n)ormal one could present a list of mods to select from for all targets |
11:09:02 | LinusN | amiconn: that would be damn nice |
11:09:19 | pondlife | Is (A)dvanced a replacement for (D)evel? |
11:09:36 | LinusN | advanced is advanced and devel is devel |
11:09:53 | amiconn | (d)evel should probably also present the list of mods |
11:10:17 | pondlife | Yes |
11:10:30 | amiconn | LinusN: This could also include the 8MB mod, so no more extra parameter for archos |
11:10:42 | LinusN | yup |
11:10:58 | amiconn | I guess the build system would need some adjustment for (a) anyway, so this should be doable |

11:14:21 | LinusN | roolku: i wasn't aware that you did that |
11:14:27 | roolku | IIUC - rtc mod goes under devel ? |
11:15:14 | LinusN | roolku: apparently not, since there are many non-developers that have the rtc-mod |
11:15:15 | roolku | LinusN: well, preglow told me I should. :) but it is no biggie, now that I understand how it works |

11:16:40 | * | roolku can see amiconn's point, as the extra option would requied changes to the build script |
11:17:12 | LinusN | and it paves the way for easier inclusion of other mods |
11:18:15 | roolku | so should I have a go at creating that advanced builds menu? |
11:18:36 | LinusN | roolku: would be nice |

11:22:19 | roolku | amiconn: that is what I understood initially, but than LinusN said no? |
11:22:26 | * | roolku is confused |
11:22:42 | LinusN | perhaps everything should go under (a)dvanced |
11:22:54 | LinusN | or (o)options, or (e)xtras or whatever |
11:23:01 | markun | LinusN, amiconn: the only hardware difference (visible to rockbox) between the Gigabeat F and X is the lack of button lights, maybe they could go into the advanced options as well? |
11:23:25 | LinusN | markun: can't it be autodetected? |
11:23:50 | markun | LinusN: I don't know |
11:24:07 | markun | LinusN: The LED controller is there, but there are just no LEDs connected |
11:24:22 | markun | (besides the ones for the backlight) |
11:24:26 | roolku | okay, so I rename the existing (D)evel option to (A)dvanced move the 8Mb build there and add the RTC mod? Is this correct? |
11:24:27 | LinusN | isn't there any other way of detecting F vs X? |
11:24:45 | LinusN | roolku: yes, i think that sounds ok |
11:24:55 | amiconn | markun: If it's desired that they're running the same build these things should be auto detected, otherwise there should be 2 targets. Imho. |
11:24:56 | LinusN | roolku: perhaps not rename it |
11:24:58 | markun | LinusN: no easy way I can think of right now |
11:25:25 | LinusN | roolku: never mind, rename it |
11:25:25 | markun | ok, perhaps a new build then |
11:26:29 | markun | amiconn: not that it matters a lot, it's just that the X users will have a button light settings menu which will do nothing |

11:30:26 | markun | LinusN: no, they have separate firmare updates |

11:34:56 | bluebrother | *nice |
11:34:57 | XavierGr | Now the next step for H300 would be to have USB OTG |

11:36:51 | LinusN | GodEater: probably |
11:37:10 | bluebrother | I would like that values to prefill the proxy settings |

11:37:39 | GodEater | bluebrother: that's a nice idea |
11:38:17 | GodEater | I'm having a nightmare building it on linux - I think the makefile is either wrong - or my version of wxWidgets is right out of whack |

11:53:30 | merwin | Just curious, is there any news on the AMS front? |
11:53:31 | LinusN | BigBambi: aha |
11:53:51 | LinusN | merwin: we are sending a delegation on march 9 |

11:56:04 | LinusN | merwin: we're not there yet |
11:56:20 | BigBambi | LinusN: I'm probably misreporting him then (my hardware knowledge is slim), but nonetheless, there is something that messed up hold detection on my remote, and I'm pretty sure he thought it was down to removing a sleep |

11:57:30 | merwin | LinusN: Well, if you get the dev boards, data sheets, and programming info... that should help :) |
11:57:35 | BigBambi | So has the remote detection changed from v6? |
11:57:36 | pondlife | The H300 non-LCD remote type is not detected early enough |
11:57:46 | LinusN | BigBambi: v6 had no detection at all |
11:57:56 | BigBambi | pondlife: LinusN I have a standard H100 lcd remote |
11:58:02 | BigBambi | LinusN: OK, that makes sense |
11:58:32 | pondlife | Well, no detection has taken place when the hold check occurs, so it might affect others |
11:58:53 | LinusN | correct |
11:59:01 | * | XavierGr gets excited with all this bootloader talk :D |
11:59:22 | pondlife | It could be reordered, but will result in a slower hold detect, and IIRC an ATA initialisation at least. |
11:59:24 | BigBambi | So at the moment is v6 assuming the original h100 lcd remote and reading buttons on that basis? |
11:59:26 | LinusN | BigBambi: can you update the IriverBoot page with this, so we don't forget it? |
11:59:36 | LinusN | BigBambi: yes |
11:59:39 | BigBambi | LinusN: sure, will do |

12:01:18 | LinusN | but we could just as well delay it |
12:01:22 | LinusN | no, not important |
12:02:28 | pondlife | It still displays "Hold detected - shutting down" after all. |

12:21:07 | fejfighter | i use foobar, it may not be much help, have to grab another tag viewer |
12:21:27 | safetydan | I thought foobar had a "raw" tag viewer? been a while since I used it |
12:21:39 | fejfighter | any recomendations for something else? |
12:21:40 | safetydan | maybe properties? |
12:21:56 | safetydan | fejfighter, under Linux I'd just use ogginfo, I've no idea for windows |
12:22:12 | fejfighter | hmm dont have a linux setup yet |
12:22:39 | fejfighter | i usually have mine in YYYY or YYYY-MM-DD for bootlegs |
12:23:12 | safetydan | Well that's what most people should have. I'm just trying to find out how common it is for people to do something else. |
12:23:41 | merwin | if you're in the usa/canada, you're probably going to put dates in mm/dd/yyyy format |
12:23:54 | fejfighter | i can try something random if u want |
12:24:13 | Stalwart | rootmenu is awesome feature |
12:24:17 | bluebrother | *sic* |
12:24:17 | Stalwart | i should install rockbox again =] |
12:24:24 | bluebrother | it's Rockbox menu :P |
12:24:26 | pondlife | Main menu |
12:24:38 | bluebrother | it is not a root. |
12:24:39 | safetydan | merwin, which would be bad for what I want to do :) But there's various ogg tag "recommendation" pages out there that say "thou shalt use year-month-day" |
12:24:44 | fejfighter | oh no the argument has started again |
12:24:56 | pondlife | It says Main Menu in the setting for Start Screen... |
12:25:14 | LinusN | it feels good that the main menu is so well received, we usually get heavily bashed for changing the ui |
12:25:18 | * | pondlife is going to attempt 1 day without any UI argument |
12:25:31 | pondlife | That's because it IS good |
12:25:36 | * | bluebrother thinks about how to bash that change ... |
12:25:38 | safetydan | I didn't think I'd like the new menu, but it's grown on me. |
12:25:48 | LinusN | i love it |
12:26:10 | bluebrother | the point is that you can still have the old ui feeling. Because it is not a root menu :D |
12:26:16 | pondlife | lol |
12:26:17 | fejfighter | i havent had much of a chance but it looks good |
12:26:36 | bluebrother | if it was designed as a root only menu it would feel different. |
12:26:37 | pondlife | It almost tempted me to enable icons for the first time in 4 years. |
12:26:46 | Stalwart | so it can 100% copy apple firmware menu structure? |

12:28:19 | decayedcell | it goes from full to empty then back to full again wee |

12:31:01 | pondlife | It does. If only real batteries went from 0% to 100% with a bit of usage :) |

12:42:34 | LinusN | good |
12:42:38 | pondlife | Which is higher than I've ever seen reported before |
12:42:44 | LinusN | it should say "Complete" when it's done |
12:43:01 | pondlife | Shouldn't take long I assume? |
12:43:09 | LinusN | could take hours |
12:43:25 | pondlife | Battery voltage is varying between 4.17-4.19-4.21 |
12:43:35 | pondlife | Hmm, it just completed a charge in the OF |
12:44:00 | LinusN | it seems to always charge for a while once it has decided to charge |
12:44:29 | pondlife | OK, but this is just monitoring the hardware, not deciding anything in our code, right? |
12:44:34 | LinusN | right |

12:45:58 | pondlife | Not a very big battery |
12:45:58 | LinusN | lol |
12:46:36 | pondlife | Configured for 2600mAh, so why such a silly estimate? |
12:46:46 | LinusN | beats me |
12:46:57 | pondlife | Overflow? |
12:47:05 | bluebrother | is it charging? |
12:47:14 | LinusN | perhaps it fails to estimate when the charger is attached |
12:47:24 | pondlife | Don't think so. The battery icon doesn't show charging. |
12:47:33 | pondlife | Battery now 98% 0h 6m |
12:47:34 | LinusN | pondlife: how do you see that? |
12:48:09 | LinusN | if the battery is nearly full, the charging animation isn't visible |
12:48:10 | pondlife | Doesn't the status bar show charging as 0% - 33% - 66% - 100% graphics? |
12:48:13 | LinusN | no |
12:48:14 | n1s | pondlife: it's supposed to show charginf time left with the charger connected |

13:06:36 | bospaadje | hi all, is there currently any way to do by-directory or by-album shuffle? |
13:07:17 | bluebrother | just add a directory to a playlist and shuffle that |
13:07:21 | fejfighter | hold select on the directory then go playlist> insert>shuffled |
13:07:41 | GodEater | I think he means play the albums in a shuffled order, but not the albums content ? |
13:07:48 | bospaadje | GodEater, indeed |
13:08:22 | GodEater | in which case, I think the answer is no - but don't hold me to that |
13:08:34 | fejfighter | random folder advance, or am think an experimantal build? |
13:08:45 | GodEater | ah - no - you're right - that would work |
13:09:01 | * | GodEater awards fejfighter a gold star |
13:09:27 | fejfighter | takes and puts on chest, grin from ear to ear |
13:10:11 | GodEater | bospaadje: will that do you ? |
13:10:18 | bluebrother | always these starred guys ... *shakes head* |
13:10:25 | bospaadje | that would do it, yes |
13:11:15 | GodEater | you know where to find it ? |
13:11:21 | quatrix | is there a way to connect externa storage to an mp3 player via a usb host cable? |
13:11:28 | BigBambi | bospaadje: You need to run the plugin first (called random_folder_advance) I think, then turn on the option in the settings to enable it |
13:11:45 | GodEater | quatrix: none of them that run rockbox |
13:12:11 | quatrix | hmm |
13:12:32 | BigBambi | quatrix: I think so theoretically using USBOTG, but rockbox doesn't have a USBOTG driver, so players with USBOTG can't currently use it in rockbox anyeway |
13:13:22 | bospaadje | BigBambi, thanks, found it |
13:13:27 | BigBambi | np |
13:13:49 | bospaadje | do i have to update the directory list manually again when i put other music on the player? |
13:13:54 | quatrix | there are lots of things one can do if it was possible (if there was a driver) to connect usb devices to a player |
13:14:03 | quatrix | i.e wifi |
13:14:05 | GodEater | bospaadje: yes |
13:14:13 | BigBambi | bospaadje: You can either update it manually or run the plugin again |
13:14:16 | BigBambi | I think |
13:14:21 | BigBambi | Easier just to rerun the plugin |
13:14:30 | GodEater | is the .dat file it generates plain text then ? |
13:14:48 | BigBambi | quatrix: Only if they have a USBOTG or similar chip |
13:14:52 | bospaadje | BigBambi, i consider rerunning the plugin manual |
13:14:54 | bospaadje | :) |
13:15:12 | BigBambi | That's half manual, real manual is getting dirty in files :) |
13:15:34 | BigBambi | quatrix: Most USB mass storage devices just have USB slave |
13:16:33 | bospaadje | it still requires some work :) would be nicer if it generated that directory list dynamically.. but this'll work too |
13:17:01 | BigBambi | bospaadje: It could, but then it'd have to run the plugin scan everytime you turned the player off or used USB |
13:17:12 | GodEater | it would be slow as hell |
13:17:17 | BigBambi | As rockbox has no way to know if you added or deleted music in USB |
13:17:21 | bospaadje | yeah i figured that |
13:17:33 | BigBambi | Which, as GodEater said, would be as slow as hell |
13:17:58 | BigBambi | Slow as hell rather - hell isn't known for being slow (that I know of) |
13:18:19 | GodEater | ah - but is it endo or exothermic ? |
13:18:41 | BigBambi | lol, you seen that supposed student answer on it? |
13:18:45 | Shaid | Depends on whether it's a cold day in hell. |
13:18:47 | GodEater | naturally ;) |
13:18:48 | Shaid | ;) |
13:19:37 | GodEater | I think the only thing missing from that answer was that a person's perception of whether it's endo/exo is entirely subjective ;) |
13:19:57 | bospaadje | GodEater, and that it's all relative :) |

13:44:06 | XavierGr | wow now rockbox deosn't boot the OF while charging while off |
13:44:15 | XavierGr | though Linus why the backlight is on forever? |
13:44:32 | LinusN | so you can see what is going on? |
13:44:33 | preglow | basically, what has changed in the cutoff point for the filter. i don't know exactly where the old one had the cutoff point, but this has it in the midpoint between cross gain and highfreq attenuation |
13:44:35 | XavierGr | I think it will be best that the backlight will light on button activity |
13:44:43 | preglow | i don't really know if it's for better or worse |
13:44:56 | preglow | LinusN: actually tested the alarm yet? |
13:45:03 | LinusN | preglow: no |

13:45:32 | LinusN | however, that code worked when i tried it half a year ago |

13:45:49 | pondlife | The OF keeps backlight on... |
13:45:57 | XavierGr | nope |
13:46:06 | n1s | it has a setting |
13:46:18 | XavierGr | you are wrong pondlife, OF has an option to leave it on forever or turn off after x seconds |
13:46:23 | LinusN | XavierGr: it shouldn't be too hard to do |
13:46:30 | pondlife | On H300? I thought the Charging screen ignored that setting. |
13:46:31 | XavierGr | though for the bootloader I think that a fixed interval should be defined |

13:50:00 | linuxstb | I was just thinking that it's both easy to implement, and would give the user the option to permanently turn on or off the backlight. |

13:52:51 | XavierGr | or is it a define that I should switch and then compile? |
13:53:10 | LinusN | there is more to it |
13:53:16 | LinusN | preglow knows |
13:53:27 | XavierGr | ok then I should probably wait more to test it properly |
13:53:29 | preglow | the code needs merging with the h300 pcf driver first anyway |
13:54:01 | XavierGr | crap my nice mouse just died? |
13:54:02 | markun | preglow: crossfeed doesn't work very well anymore for me |
13:54:30 | preglow | markun: yeah, like i said, i think the cutoffs need adjusting now |

13:56:11 | preglow | markun: i did make it work, though, but god knows what my settings where |
13:56:25 | LinusN | pondlife: yes :-) |
13:56:44 | preglow | markun: anyway, the cutoff might need to be higher than before |
13:57:05 | pondlife | I take it you meant "Wonderful!", not "Wonderful :/" |
13:57:15 | preglow | hahaha |
13:57:17 | XavierGr | pondlife: on the normal ml? |
13:57:50 | pondlife | Yep. I don't think an apology was needed! |
13:58:09 | preglow | depends if he usually apologises when someone thanks him |
13:58:32 | linuxstb | What are people's views about moving the Sleep TImer from the settings into the new System entry in the main/root/rockbox menu? I've got a patch ready to commit... |
13:58:57 | markun | preglow: I should get rolo to work on the Gigabeat so I can quickly switch |
13:58:58 | pondlife | linuxstb: Why move it to the top level? |
13:59:17 | linuxstb | pondlife: Because it isn't a setting - the value isn't written to the .cfg file. |
13:59:41 | linuxstb | It's more an "action" - telling Rockbox to sleep within X minutes, if the user doesn't manually power off before then. |
13:59:46 | LinusN | i don't really see the sleep timer as a system entry |
13:59:59 | preglow | i don't think it belongs where it is, but it's not a system entry, no |
14:00 |
14:00:01 | markun | do we have more of these actions that don't get saved? |
14:00:02 | pondlife | Doesn't seem important enough for the top level though |
14:00:13 | XavierGr | ehm? why does he apologizes? Linus said "Wonderful!" |
14:00:20 | preglow | but a system entry might be better anyway |
14:00:27 | LinusN | i guess he thought i was sarcastic |
14:00:28 | linuxstb | I see "shutdown" and "reboot" options maybe being added to system in the future, so the sleep timer fits with those. |
14:00:36 | pondlife | Yes |
14:00:46 | LinusN | maybe "System" is a bad name? |
14:01:11 | markun | "Control"? |
14:01:17 | linuxstb | It fits in with "system" in my mind for some reason... |
14:01:17 | pondlife | Would anyone else prefer "Files" to be "File Browser"? And similar for "Database"... |
14:01:33 | linuxstb | pondlife: I think it will look ugly with "Browser" everywhere. |
14:01:34 | LinusN | i like it how it is |
14:01:40 | markun | pondlife: no me |
14:01:42 | markun | not |
14:01:43 | pondlife | OK, just a thought |
14:01:52 | markun | pondlife: do you like it? |
14:01:58 | pondlife | Enough with the No's already!! |
14:02:01 | pondlife | Not much, no! |
14:02:07 | markun | :) |
14:02:13 | pondlife | Someone mentioned it, so I thought I'd echo.... |
14:03:29 | linuxstb | So is the general view "no", or "yes, but let's rename system to something else" ? |
14:03:48 | * | linuxstb doesn't use the sleep timer, but feels it's misplaced at the moment |
14:04:16 | markun | linuxstb: it gets my vote |

15:14:07 | linuxstb | No. |
15:14:17 | DerPapst | ah.. i guessed that |
15:14:36 | DerPapst | because ipod2c doesn't seem to work on windows. |
15:14:54 | linuxstb | Does it need the O_BINARY flag? |
15:15:04 | linuxstb | (when opening files) |
15:15:08 | Domonoky | building ipodpatcher should be possible, |
15:15:13 | Domonoky | i use it in rbutil |
15:15:29 | Domonoky | you just have to use the right files :-) |
15:15:35 | DerPapst | linuxstb: not tried yet. |
15:15:37 | DerPapst | ;) |

15:59:37 | XavierGr | well it is true that if you follow close instructions on the iriverboot page in the wiki you can make the bootloader |
15:59:49 | XavierGr | but don't whine if something goes completely wrong :P |
16:00 |
16:00:34 | voltagex | I've already said I'll stay away from it ;) |
16:00:53 | amiconn | linuxstb: Mono and native are already there, I'd need to introcuce 'transparent native' |
16:00:56 | voltagex | once I get my new MP3 player I'll be putting a JTAG on this |
16:01:38 | amiconn | It might also grow beyond 6 if someone starts adding built-in bitmaps for greyscale library plugins |
16:02:45 | voltagex | Yay! Mac OS X has decided my MP3 player is a folder and not a drive :/ |

16:05:10 | Domonoky | i will incorporate it in a few days when its ready.. |
16:05:15 | GodEater | I'd help on rbutil, but the wxWidgets version it uses is not available for gentoo in portage yet |
16:05:21 | voltagex | only because I can't figure out how to do umlauts on this keyboard |
16:05:33 | voltagex | GodEater: funroll-loops!!!!!11one |
16:05:49 | Domonoky | eject would be nice, but i dont know if i can code it :-) |
16:05:54 | GodEater | they deleted that site - it's only available in the wayback machine now :( |
16:06:02 | GodEater | which is a shame - I thought it was funny as heck |
16:06:11 | voltagex | üeber, hmm that wörkëd |
16:06:26 | GodEater | except that's not am umlaut... |
16:06:29 | Domonoky | GodEater: build wxWidget2.8 your self :-) |
16:06:31 | voltagex | Domonoky: eject on posix systems is umount.... |
16:06:51 | voltagex | GodEater: the dot-dot is an umlaut right? |
16:06:58 | voltagex | ¨ |
16:07:02 | GodEater | Domonoky: I could - but then it would conflict with the 2.6.3 install I already have |
16:07:13 | Domonoky | jeah, but i would have to issue the "eject" command to the system somehow,, will have to research.. |
16:07:17 | voltagex | GodEater: install it in a VM? |
16:07:23 | GodEater | voltagex: depends on your language, in some it's a dioresce |
16:07:34 | voltagex | Domonoky: just umount the location of the player |
16:07:51 | linuxstb | amiconn: What will your transparent bitmaps look like? Are you implementing a mask for the 2bpp version? |
16:08:00 | voltagex | os.popen("umount player_location") |
16:08:15 | Domonoky | but i have to do it in a portable way :-) |
16:08:26 | linuxstb | No you don't... |
16:08:29 | GodEater | voltagex: yep - what's the windows equivalent ? |
16:08:42 | Domonoky | rbutil runs on win/lin/mac |
16:08:43 | voltagex | Domonoky: umount for posix, then there's only one troublesome os to handle |
16:08:49 | Domonoky | :-) |
16:09:02 | linuxstb | I think we can do that kind of stuff in OS specific ways. e.g. on Mac, you need to unmount the ipod before installing the bootloader, on Windows and Linux you don't. |
16:09:03 | GodEater | Domonoky: you could just use ifdef |
16:09:36 | * | Domonoky noted "eject" on his todo list :-) |
16:10:26 | linuxstb | Also, on the Mac, after you install the bootloader, the Mac will helpfully remount it... |
16:10:37 | amiconn | linuxstb: Yes, transparent bitmaps will use a mask on all non-colour targets.bmp2rb will evaluate (255,0,255) as being transparent to be compatible with the colour targets |
16:11:28 | amiconn | All rockbox bitmaps will get a small struct header carrying its parameters |
16:11:54 | amiconn | ...so the bitmap drawing functions will have less parameters |
16:12:03 | voltagex | :( doesn't seem to be a windblows equivalent of umount |

17:00:51 | markun | how did you install rockbox? |
17:01:01 | sakuramboo | i installed it last night and everything was working until the battery died on me |
17:01:06 | sakuramboo | now it doesnt fully boot |
17:01:19 | markun | and did you recharge the battery? |
17:01:26 | sakuramboo | its not charging for some reason |
17:01:38 | sakuramboo | i can plug it in and use it, but it doesnt charge |
17:02:02 | markun | you can use the apple firmware? |
17:02:10 | kapez | hmm |
17:02:16 | sakuramboo | nope, when i try to boot into apples firmware, it reboots |
17:02:43 | linuxstb | sakuramboo: That's a sympton of the CPU freezing problem. Try the "no frequency scaling" or "cop patch" unofficial builds from mikeage in the Unsupported Builds forum. |

17:08:52 | sakuramboo | im just getting to the apple and it just stops |
17:09:22 | bonbonthejon | sakuramboo: reinstall the bootloader, see if that helps, did you follow the wiki instructions |
17:09:30 | sakuramboo | yes |
17:10:58 | linuxstb | Which wiki instructions? For the 4g, you should follow the old "IpodInstallation" version - using the ipod_fw and ipodpatcher tools. |
17:11:26 | bonbonthejon | linuxstb: what is wrong wit the newer installer, its worked on mine so far |
17:11:51 | sakuramboo | www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IpodInstallation |
17:11:55 | sakuramboo | thats what i used |
17:12:03 | linuxstb | bonbonthejon: On the 4g greyscale? |
17:13:01 | bonbonthejon | linuxstb: yup, i have used the linux 32-bit installer on the installation beta page, and it works |
17:13:06 | linuxstb | sakuramboo: Then the Apple firmware should start fine - assuming you followed the instructions correctly. |
17:13:15 | linuxstb | bonbonthejon: And it loads the Apple firmware? |
17:13:31 | sakuramboo | i followed everything to the letter and when it goes to load the apple firmware, it just reboots |
17:13:31 | bonbonthejon | linuxstb: no, it doesnt boot the apple firmware |
17:14:19 | linuxstb | DerPapst: Have you changed line 109 to say O_RDONLY|O_BINARY ? |
17:14:36 | linuxstb | bonbonthejon: Then you have a different interpretation of "works" to me. |
17:15:24 | | Quit billodo_ (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer)) |
17:15:25 | bonbonthejon | linuxstb: well i guess the issue is the new installer doesnt allow apple firmware, but i dont use it anyway, so all's good |
17:17:05 | DerPapst | linuxstb: ah thanks. seems to work and the file is also comlete |
17:17:58 | sakuramboo | whats the difference between a rockbox-bootloader-ipod4g.ipod and bootloader-4g.bin? |
17:18:39 | sakuramboo | if they are both bootloaders, should they follow the same extension naming scheme? |
17:19:58 | GodEater | sakuramboo: they're for use with different versions of ipodpatcher |

17:21:06 | sakuramboo | so, when i go to install the .ipod bootloader, i should be using the newer ipodpather, right? |
17:21:32 | linuxstb | Yes. But the combination of the new bootloader and new ipodpatcher results in a failure to load the Apple firmware. |
17:21:51 | sakuramboo | well, gah |
17:21:52 | linuxstb | It's mentioned on the wiki page and we're still trying to find a solution. |
17:22:12 | GodEater | did dan_a get any closer to working out where it broke ? |
17:22:38 | sakuramboo | i think thats the one i used initially, then |
17:23:18 | linuxstb | GodEater: I think he managed to get it working, but only by hacking the bootloader and using gcc 4.1.1. We still don't understand the actual problem. |
17:23:39 | GodEater | gcc 4.1.1 for arm ? |
17:27:00 | sakuramboo | nope, im still getting to the "rockbox loaded." message and it just stops |
17:27:28 | GodEater | sakuramboo: so you've now used the old ipodpatcher and the old boot loader ? |
17:27:36 | nls | should the "root" menu be called Main Menu in the manual or do we have any other suggestions? |
17:27:51 | sakuramboo | with the old bootloader and with the new bootloader |
17:27:56 | sakuramboo | both ways result in the same thing |
17:28:08 | GodEater | which bootloader are you *currently* using though ? |
17:28:31 | sakuramboo | rockbox-bootloader-ipod4g.ipod |
17:28:46 | GodEater | so the new one then |
17:28:51 | sakuramboo | at least, i think thats the one that got installed, the new ipodpatcher doesnt say which one its installing |
17:29:05 | GodEater | the new ipodpatcher installs the new bootloader |
17:29:06 | | Quit dmdfan- (Read error: 145 (Connection timed out)) |
17:29:15 | sakuramboo | okay, then thats the one it installed |
17:29:26 | GodEater | you should be using the old bootloader, as linuxstb indicated above |
17:29:38 | sakuramboo | i also tried reloading the rockbox.ipod file and .rockbox folders, doesnt work |
17:29:54 | sakuramboo | i was using the old bootloader when all this started |
17:29:56 | GodEater | and you should try using one of the unofficial builds which disables frequency scaling |
17:32:40 | sakuramboo | rebooting right now, gonna see what happens |

19:29:02 | Nico_P | when he comes back, send him to me, i'll try and help him |

19:36:30 | Nico_P | perl|work: what do you mean ? |
19:36:34 | amiconn | hi Quelsaruk |
19:36:51 | perl|work | like if youd be browsing in cue viewer and could click on any track and start a playback from it |
19:37:57 | Nico_P | i'll try to see if it seems doable |
19:40:46 | pixelma | perl|work: easy fix... just split your music files with a program that can use the info from the cue sheet for that ;) |
19:42:21 | perl|work | i was doing that before Nico_P's wonderful patch |
19:43:18 | bluebrother | why not present the cue sheet as multiple entries in the playlist viewer / wps and keep it as a single file in the playlist file? |
19:44:16 | Nico_P | bluebrother: because that's much more complicated to do and doesn't apply to files with embedded chapter info (e.g. MP4) |
19:44:25 | perl|work | pixelma now that we have .cue sheet support i dont see any reasons to split them and i have quite a lot of mp3s/cues |
19:44:41 | Nico_P | though only cues are supported ATM, i hope to extend the code to support other types of chapters |

22:35:50 | nls | powers723: you can try to use the equalizer pre amp, I guess that will work to control volume in the sim |
22:36:54 | nls | or rather it will work to lower volume :-) |
22:37:12 | powers723 | It's ok, its not essential :p |
22:37:26 | linuxstb_ | It should be able to control the system mixer though - although as LinusN said, it's far from a high priority to fix. |

22:38:40 | NuclearDog | Yeah, it'd be nice. |
22:38:57 | NuclearDog | For a while I was using the rockbox sim to play music on my computer, but using a numpad on a laptop is just too annoying. |

23:01:08 | linuxstb | nls: It was partly an accident - I clicked on "reopen" expecting a text box similar to the "close" link, but it immediately reopened it. But the reason is that I think a comparison of Rockboy's source with iboy, and incorporating any useful changes would be a good thing. |
23:01:29 | linuxstb | iboy is being actively developed, Rockboy isn't... |

23:13:15 | linuxstb | I'm also confused about that... |
23:13:27 | | Part LinusN |
23:13:53 | bluebrother | there was some consens to not have it as root. So initially the screens didn't leave with left to the menu |
23:14:12 | moll | LinusN: then I've probably found a bug (H120, sim). If there's nothing to resume (as of mp3 playback) and I go to the main menu from the radio i says "Nothing to resume" |
23:14:51 | bluebrother | and calling that thing "root" might also cause confusion about the root folder as it sounds similar |
23:14:59 | nls | moll, report it in the thread or the tracker |

23:16:07 | linuxstb | bluebrother: But I still don't understand how you are visualising it, if it isn't a root menu. |
23:16:50 | bluebrother | I still think of a couple of screens at the same level, bewteen which you can switch. Some screens can call each other, some not |
23:17:06 | bluebrother | and each screen can have its own hierarchy. Like the file browser |
23:17:17 | Soap | Ahh, but I see those "shortcut keys" as like rope ladders between branches of a tree. |
23:17:25 | nls | moll: Now you made me use the radio for the third time on my h300 :-P but yes it resumes file playback even if comming from fm |

23:18:40 | bluebrother | jumping between arbitrary elements in a screen isn't a quite clear thing to me. Jumping between screens is. |
23:18:43 | markun | Soap: and they are not really branches, because you can go to the menu and back to the file browser without going all the way to the root of the file tree |
23:18:53 | bluebrother | just think of the file / database browser remembering its position. |
23:19:18 | bluebrother | _If_ the menu were a root one you would _need_ to always start in the root folder when entering the file browser |
23:19:35 | bluebrother | as it doesn't work that way it isn't a root menu. |

23:21:26 | SpAwN | will rockbox eventualy support all types of videos?..or is it gonna be geared toward one video format?. it would be killer if i could(in time) be able to play a divx of xvid video...or any other kinda common video files |
23:21:53 | nls | SpAwN: if someone codes it, sure |
23:22:07 | thegeek_ | no |
23:22:13 | Soap | SpAwN: divx, spell it forward or backwards, takes a lot more CPU than MPEG2. |
23:22:17 | bluebrother | SpAwN: divx needs a lot of processing power ... so that makes it quite unlikely |
23:22:18 | thegeek_ | atleast not on any current targets |
23:22:19 | linuxstb | SpAwN: Rockbox will support whatever people choose to implement. But the CPUs in most devices are very limited, so don't expect it to be able to play any video you can throw at it. |
23:22:30 | markun | SpAwN: the size, framerate and audio probably need to be changed anyway, so you could just as well change the video codec.. |
23:22:34 | SpAwN | nls, well i dont know how to code :( ....but im sure somene could get mplayer on there? |
23:22:44 | linuxstb | Definitely not. |
23:22:46 | nls | but you'll most likely still want to recode them to your screen resolution so you could just as easily just transcode to whatever is supported |

23:26:05 | markun | bluebrother: explain to who? |
23:26:06 | barrywardell | if I calculated right, it wraps about once every 71.58 minutes |
23:26:22 | bluebrother | to some people in the channel ;-) |
23:26:37 | barrywardell | wouldn't want to be doing a frequency change around then! |
23:26:40 | bluebrother | but maybe something similar would even be good for the manual. I just need to try it first |
23:26:41 | linuxstb | I thought the menu structure was self-explanatory - there is one menu which is the starting point in Rockbox, and a number of screens attached to that menu... |
23:26:41 | markun | bluebrother: they'll get the picture from using it, don't worry |
23:27:19 | markun | linuxstb: yes, much more logical now |
23:27:26 | bluebrother | they might get it. But explaining it with nice pictures might draw more attention to the manual (and make more users actually read it) |
23:27:40 | * | x1jmp wonders why there are so few patches relating to translation in the tracker |
23:27:53 | x1jmp | do all the translators have access to svn? |
23:27:55 | linuxstb | markun: Which is why I regard it as a "root menu" in concept (although I agree it shouldn't be called that). |

23:28:25 | bluebrother | nls: nice. |
23:28:38 | bluebrother | me is heavily lacking time atm. |
23:28:38 | barrywardell | linuxstb: i suppose it's only a 1 in 2 million chance for the frequency scaling, but with udelay(150000) in the sansa lcd driver, that's a lot more likely |
23:28:49 | nls | x1jmp: basically, translations get committed quite fast |
23:29:07 | Soap | thank you for the explination bluebrother |
23:29:29 | Soap | I know you have been making this point for a couple of days, I'm glad I finally understand it now. |
23:29:32 | x1jmp | nls: so the devs translate everything themselves? |
23:29:48 | linuxstb | barrywardell: I'm pretty sure I tried to fix the wrapping ages ago, but it didn't fix the freezing, and my implementation was hackish, so I never got around to committing it... |
