00:02:06jhulstDoes anyone have recommendations for a good disassembler for ARM code?
00:02:16preglowida pro
00:02:21preglowcosts $$$
00:02:32jhulstI saw that, anything cheaper
00:02:36hcsdoes the demo do arm?
00:02:38preglowwell, i use objdump.....
00:02:44preglowhcs: i think so
00:02:46preglowx86 and arm
00:02:57jhulstit does, but no linux support, didn't look at trying it in Wine
00:03:23hcsThat'd be a nice project, open source IDA equivalent

00:05:26jhulstpreglow: Is that the best one you've found for Linux?
00:05:31preglowyes
00:05:37preglowi haven't searched extensively, though
00:05:50preglowit's thoroughly crap, so there has to be something better
00:06:59jhulsthcs: You're open source version of Ida perhaps? http://lida.reverse-engineering.net/
00:07:17hcsooh
00:07:32BHSPitMonkeyyo
00:07:52jhMikeSwe'll I found one thing the gigabeat can't do is make 60fps with pacbox :\ ... so maybe there is some optimization fun with it :)
00:08:01preglowthat doesn't do arm, does it?
00:08:17amiconnAt least for SH there's something that's *a bit* better than objdump
00:08:29hcspreglow: doesn't look like it, but it'd be a good place to start
00:08:58preglowhcs: well, at least writing an arm disassembler is a pretty easy
00:09:50hcspreglow: yeah, so there's a lot of gui already done
00:11:24preglowantonius hellmann has already written a disassembler which could be integrated
00:11:28preglowif someone was thusly inclined
00:11:37hcslooks like it hasn't been worked on in several years (lida)
00:11:42preglowi don't think i have anything that needs disassembling in the near future
00:14:21jhulstI'm working on the Creative port and am looking around for one
00:16:31Arathisbarrywardell: loading the original mi4 works for me too with the new BL. no white screens btw. but is it intended that when loading the OF the screen turns black with white font and the messages are not listed on the normal blue screen as before?

00:43:03safetydannewbie, the mpegplayer will never be visible in your plugins list. You just need to select or "click on" a suitable mpeg file and it will play
00:43:28newbiemoos: where is the viewer dir?

01:00:59chrisjs169well, i sorta noticed a different bug, but here's something: when double clicking on the windows exe for sansapatcher, if an old rockbox install is detected, it immediately aborts, closing the window
01:01:00barrywardellchrisjs169: what is it?
01:01:06Iconei have a Gigabeat...and i realy not understant how to encode file :S
01:01:16amiconnFurthermore, the player lcd driver allows defining up to 21 characters at runtime
01:01:32chrisjs169so it just displays the quick .1 second type flash of the command prompt before closing

01:07:17Iconethe format of the screen
01:07:30safetydannewbise, aspect ratios. 4:3 is what you see normally on TV. 16:9 is widescreen.
01:07:32Icone4:3 = normal 16:9 = widescreen ( HD )
01:07:33newbiesafetydan i got all the files i needed just that i gotta know how to use them

01:08:40newbiethink*
01:08:43safetydannewbie, probably 4:3 but it doesn't really matter. The 16:9 video will just play with black bars at the top and bottom

01:25:25Aloneasafetydan: yes, I checked earlier

01:31:03safetydanAlonea, okay you've got something very weird going on there.
01:31:42safetydannewbie, the sixth paragraph here http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/PluginMpegplayer#UsingVLC_to_encode_on_Linux_Mac which has the batch file VLC-transcode.bat. That paragraph tells you exactly what to do.
01:31:52Aloneasafetydan: really. this completely baffles me too. I could try deleting my rockbox folder and just start over. might as well try.
01:32:43newbiesafetydan:i am talking about the mplayer part (i already did the 6th paragraph part)
01:33:07safetydannewbie, those two sections are talking about two different ways to encode files. You do one, or the other. Not both.
01:33:22safetydanYou either encode with VLC, or you encode with mplayer/mencoder. Not both.
01:34:15newbiesafetydan: oh ..
01:34:41newbiesafetydan: since i got VLC in how do i encode videos?

01:46:40jhMikeSmarkun: are the chips on these integrated sets usually normal chips or packaged somehow without id? someone must have a smashed one around. :\
01:47:25safetydanAlonea, so your steps are something like "svn checkout http://.../rockbox; cd rockbox/tools; ./rockboxdev.sh; cd ..; mkdir build-dir; cd build-dir; ../tools/configure"?
01:47:28markunjhMikeS: the driver IC is embedded in the glass of the LCD module. Toffe was able to read the markings, but they didn't tell us anything
01:47:45jhMikeSI see.
01:48:51markunif we want to have our own bootloader in flash we need to setup the LCD over SPI. We can just send the same bytes as the OF does, but I would prefer to have a datasheet so we actually know what we are doing..

02:28:47barrywardellJdGordo|uni: no usb devices work until i reboot.
02:28:55LloreanProjectwhat: What does this being the IRC have to do with anything. This is a channel for questions not answered in the documentation. That's where there's the link in the channel topic.
02:28:55Galoisand especially if the spoon-feeding involves a written communication medium
02:29:22newbielorean:and only sounds come out only whereas in my ipod its unselectable (cannot play it but i can see the file on rockbox tho)
02:29:35barrywardellJdGordo|uni: i don't think it's that. i think it's that we're enableing the usb controller without fully setting it up first
02:29:43newbiesounds come out when i play on my com
02:29:47Projectwhat<soap> I've have been trying to fix my PC for the past 2-3 days. Just got ubuntu and was rocky at first. I anint got time to read
02:29:53 Quit Moos ("Quitte")
02:30:00JdGordo|unibarrywardell: so does the mac usb die if you plug it in with rockbox running?
02:30:06Soapeveryone here has a life too, Projectwhat.
02:30:08Lloreannewbie: If only sound comes out, VLC isn't encoding the video part of it. You need to seek help from VLC support if your VLC is not working properly, as it's not Rockbox software, it's just a tool we suggest you use because it works for us.
02:30:13barrywardellyes, it's not specific to the bootloader
02:30:25JdGordo|uniah ok then
02:30:30newbiellorean oh
02:30:35SoapIf you don't have time to read you don't have time for Rockbox. It's not food, air, or water. Stop insisting your time is more valuable than ours.
02:30:38LloreanProjectwhat: If you haven't got time to read, then wait until you do have time. We haven't got time to bother with people who think their time is more important than ours.
02:30:39Projectwhat<soap> obviously not or u wouldnt be spending ur whole time in an IRC
02:30:56newbiellorean: i didn't set the frame rate
02:31:02LloreanProjectwhat: This is the DEVELOPMENT channel, we get work done here.
02:31:10barrywardellJdGordo|uni: so basically I think your usb detection in the bootloader is ready to go once usb_detect() itself is fixed
02:31:17Lloreannewbie: What is the original frame rate of the file? Try manually setting it to 15 in the .bat
02:31:35Projectwhat<Llorean> then why are u in an IRC
02:31:35newbiehow do i do that?

02:33:18JdGordo|unibarrywardell: do we know whats actually wrong with usb_detect() or is that completly undocumented?
02:33:40JdGordo|unishouldnt it work the same as the ipods? or do they crash your mac also?
02:33:51markunProjectwhat: what do you want to know about rockbox?
02:33:58LloreanProjectwhat: I answer questions that deserve to be answered, administer our forums, test and develop the software, and work on the manual.

02:39:58LloreanJdGordo|uni: With this bootloader, if it did, we'd have the same kind of "USB Support" the iPods have, very useful.
02:40:18Lloreanbarrywardell: The bootloader seems good so far. Several reboots with and without USB, and the CRC is staying consistent.
02:40:43Lloreanbarrywardell: Quick question: It'll look for rockbox.e200 in /.rockbox/?
02:40:45barrywardelli'm pretty sure I fixed the crc problem
02:40:50LloreanOh wait
02:40:51LloreanNevermind
02:40:51*JdGordo|uni wishes along with barrywardell
02:40:56LloreanJust noticed the newest build is like that automatically.
02:40:57LloreanFINALLY
02:41:26barrywardellLlorean: it looks for rockbox.mi4 first in /.rockbox/, then in /, then it looks for rockbox.e200 in /.rockbox/, then in /
02:42:03Aloneamarkun: safetydan: ok, this seems a bit different. I scrolled up and there was some more stuff. http://pastebin.ca/404493
02:42:34JdGordo|unibarrywardell: .mi4 is used on all pp? or just e200 and h10?
02:42:53barrywardellall pp except for ipod
02:43:05barrywardellso just e200 and h10 for now
02:43:07JdGordo|unido we really want to reuse the extensions?
02:43:18LloreanThe USB detection in the bootloader isn't wholly reliable
02:43:22LloreanOr is it gone from this version?
02:43:32barrywardellit hasn't been added yet
02:43:44LloreanAh, well it should be. :)
02:43:49barrywardellJdGordo|uni: I'm not sure
02:44:31Lloreanbarrywardell: This bootloader is at least far, far more reliable than the previous one that loaded the OF from the boot partition. Many reboots now, and everything seems good.
02:44:37barrywardellJdGordo|uni: it won't load a rockbox.mi4 that's not for its model
02:46:34JdGordo|uniok
02:47:10barrywardellit's still open for debate until we release a bootloader I guess

02:55:24saratogai don't know where its actually stored
02:55:39webguest20ok... then can anyone tell me where to get some gameboy or gameboy colour roms???
02:55:51saratogadownload them from the games you purchased
02:56:08webguest20how do i do that???
02:56:37saratogagoogle it
02:56:52webguest20ok.... thx
02:57:45webguest20here's a good site if anyone is looking for roms..... - http://www.gameboyroms.org/main.php?platform=Gameboy
02:57:58Lloreanwebguest20: No, we don't mean google "Gameboy Roms"
02:58:08Lloreanwebguest20: Downloading them is infringing copyright law.
02:59:04webguest20ok then what did you mean????
02:59:31LloreanLook for either homebrew ROMs that are freely distributable, or find out how to get the files off the gameboy games you already own. That's what google was recommended for.
02:59:41saratogayou asked how to copy a rom from a game, i suggested you search google
03:00
03:00:01LloreanMan, I can't believe people are saying Rockbox on Sansa isn't loud enough..
03:01:11saratogamaybe they've got really hard to drive headphones?
03:01:17LloreanIt's possible
03:01:32saratogai know people say stuff like that abou tthe ipods occasionally
03:01:41LloreanWell they're saying we aren't as loud as the OF
03:01:43saratogawith mine, i listen at 1 tick in the retail firmware
03:01:50saratogaas in one pixel from mute
03:01:57saratogastupid IEMs
03:02:06LloreanYeah, that was too loud for me in many cases in the Apple firmware, and that was before I got my in-ear phones. :)
03:02:08LloreanI'm a very quiet person
03:02:17saratogais yours as loud as retail?
03:02:36LloreanMy Sansa? I'm not sure.
03:02:40LloreanLemme see if I can test easily
03:02:59saratogawell its no big deal
03:03:04saratogai haven't ordered one yet
03:03:13saratogaso it'll be a bit before i'm too concerned
03:03:42LloreanWell, when Rockbox says 0dB, I think it really is 0dB, so Rockbox gets as loud as you should go
03:03:45LloreanYeah, the OF does go louder.
03:03:45 Quit webguest20 ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
03:03:54LloreanI think similar to the +6 on the iPods.
03:05:21LloreanRockbox definitely gets a bit quieter than the OF on sansas, at least.
03:07:30Lloreansaratoga: Scratch that, I'm bad at estimating. Side by side with the same file, it looks like the Sansa caps in the -10ish range.
03:07:51LloreanI just didn't realize this file was so loud naturally
03:08:35LloreanBut then the Sansa's got a lot of work to go. It's ridiculously unresponsive compared to my Nano.

05:18:39sidthanks aliask
05:18:52aliaskAdd to that a bunch of bugfixes and optimisations. I can't see any reason why you wouldn't want to update.
05:20:07aliasksid: You will also need to update the bootloader if you update the build - however its dead simple nowdays.
05:21:06sidaliask: I'm on GNU/Linux(debian), which guide should I use?
05:23:13Lloreansid: Always the one in the manual...

05:48:12TCKis there a way to get any major changes sent to email?
05:51:15aliaskTCK: Not that I know of. Unless the wiki has some kind of notify feature
05:51:15safetydanTCK, the major changes page is updated by hand. So not really.
05:53:46billytwowillyTCK: that's awesome. I didn't know about the major changes page.
05:53:51Overandwait, update to the latest bootloader? yike
05:54:05Overand(on portalplayer/ipod)
05:54:26OverandI installed using a previous version (not as automated) of the bootloader - should i restore to stock firmware with that first?
05:54:27billytwowillyalso, rockbox appears to be getting awesome;) Last.fm/audioscrobbler support is awesome
05:54:41LloreanOverand: Not necessary.
05:54:48safetydan"Getting" awesome? It's been awesome for years :)
05:54:50OverandLlorean: neat!
05:55:19billytwowillyheh. You have to keep in mind that the last time I used it with any seriousness was on my archos jukebox 6000
05:56:33billytwowillythat would be.. 4 + years ago?
05:56:53billytwowillyfirst or second year university anyway.
05:57:33billytwowillynow I'm watching because my ipod mini is about to give up the ghost and I want to replace it with something that isn't an ipod because I primarily listen to audio books and the bookmarking function in an ipod is infuriating.
05:59:28billytwowillythe only feature that was really nice about the ipod with audiobooks is the faster setting for playing audio faster.
05:59:39billytwowillyI don't believe rockbox has that yet.
06:00
06:00:09LloreanRockbox can play them faster, but it does so just by actually playing the file faster, so you have a pitch increase.
06:00:32billytwowillyyah, that's too bad.
06:01:03billytwowillythat was a nice feature of the ipod, but the bookmarking features in rockbox more than make up for that. I can probably reencode the audio book to play faster anyway.

06:29:14OverandOh, this new version is pretty rocking, no pun intended.
06:29:32OverandIt's been months since I updated, glad to have dual-proc support on the ipod
06:30:18Overandfeels like the buffering behavior is different, but that's tough to tell

06:37:08TCKI'd update if my web was faster than 1kb/s
06:37:17TCKlooks like I'll have to wait till tomorrow

06:37:26*JdGordon just saw something interesting in the sansa lcd driver!
06:37:38OverandI mean, the navigation menu has icons now, maybe it was supposed to before and i had a hosed install, heh
06:38:02 Part sid
06:38:24TCKstill, that dual-proc might explain why I can't currently go further than the 03-04-07 build without major crashes
06:38:39TCKI've seen the new nav menu
06:38:52TCKI mostly updated for spc support though :)
06:41:37OverandI was running an unofficial build for a while for NSF support
06:41:43Alonea_guess I will try to get rockbox to compile again tomorrow..there has to be sometime I am missing
06:42:31Alonea_night
06:42:32safetydanTCK, if it's crashing with newer builds, you need to update your bootloader

06:52:16daniel1234would anyone be able to help me with cygwin
06:52:20Overandsafetydan: might there be a way to change rockbox so it checks the bootloader version on startup, and if it determine that it's running a too-old one, it won't procee?
06:52:32Overanddaniel1234: i can help with cygwin in a very basic fashion, but there may be someone here who's better.
06:52:35Overandwhat do you need?
06:53:53JdGordondan_a: ping?
06:54:28safetydanOverand, possibly, but it's relatively rare that a new bootloader is actually required so I don't think it'd be worth the effort.
06:54:38daniel1234Overand if you could help me that would be great I have it installed but I can do everything up to selecting normal build I get a warning error do you know what I should
06:54:52daniel1234do after that
06:55:08OverandI'm afraid I don't entirely understand the question, sorry.
06:55:15OverandAre you following a guide for using cygwin to compile rockbox?
06:55:34LloreanOverand: It wasn't supposed to _require_ a new bootloader, just perform better if the new bootloader was present, but it didn't end up working quite right.
06:55:55daniel1234when I type N after selecting my player I get a warning message if you want I can send the message I get
06:55:57OverandLlorean: ah, well, that's too bad. Oh well!
06:56:09Overanddaniel1234: use pastebin if it's more than one line
06:56:16Overandbut iI probably can't help you, unfortunately
06:56:32Overandunless it's like 'a suitable compiler could not be found'
06:56:58Overandi've never used the cygwin build scripts, i wasn't even aware such an animal existed -i just happen to be a cygwin user in general
06:57:36daniel1234ok after I install cygwin and select the packages is there something else I should do
06:59:01OverandSorry, I can't help.
06:59:26daniel1234OK then I will try the dev mailing list
06:59:37safetydandaniel1234, try putting the error message in pastebin so we can see it
07:00
07:00:26daniel1234do you want me to just paste it in here
07:01:39safetydanonly if it's short (i.e. less than two lines)
07:02:05safetydanotherwise, go to http://pastebin.ca and paste it there, then copy the URL they give you here

07:14:57JdGordonLlorean: copying a .fmt file in recovery mode formats the 2gb partition and doesnt touch the booloader right?
07:15:23LloreanJdGordon: Yes, or at least that's what it did for one of our forum users.
07:15:24safetydandaniel1234, to fix that error you need to have the compiler on your path. How did you install Cygwin? Did you use the instructions from here http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/CygwinDevelopment
07:16:48daniel1234I used the instructions on the screen shots page and selected all the packages it said to could I put this in my path some how
07:17:18sweatingsocialstllorean: for VLC can u tell me the settings u changed so u can also canvert the videos ... and if u said to ask VLC support i already did but the support was deader than a corpse
07:17:21LloreanJdGordon: The file there was an empty file named sansa.fmt
07:18:14JdGordonI decided to just use mkefs.vfat :p

08:47:21bluebrotheranyway, it's a music player
08:47:33*bluebrother goes voting for "remove doom" once again :)
08:47:47JdGordonhell no!
08:47:53LloreanIt doesn't make much sense to look for a solution when you haven't come up with the problem it's supposed to solve yet. :)
08:47:56DyneCan someone tell me what key translates into the "pitch" menu on the Sansa? I know on my Archos JukeBox FM it was the middle button, but I can't figure it out on my e240
08:48:01scorchebluebrother: lets keep bubble though =)
08:48:05bluebrotherremove doom! remove doom!
08:48:15bluebrotherscorche: bubbles is ok ;-)
08:48:29bluebrotherbut the only game I really like is jewels
08:48:35*GodEater isn't a fan of doom either
08:48:38LloreanOh, speaking of Jewels.
08:48:49LloreanCould someone try something on their Gigabeat for me to confirm it's not some quirk of mine?
08:48:54GodEatersure
08:49:04DyneHey guys, How's it going?
08:49:06*bluebrother thinks doom attracts too much people only because of doom
08:49:13LloreanStart music playing back, then run Invadrox, quit, and run Jewels, save game, and quick.
08:49:18*GodEater agress with bluebrother
08:49:43*B4gder likes the concept of having doom, but has so far never even started it :-)
08:49:43std|denissure, the great benefit of rockbox is opensource and nightly builds. so if someone did an improovement, noone will wait for several month or years :)
08:50:14GodEaterLlorean: how do I save game ?
08:50:21aliaskDyne: Hold select and press up
08:50:42LloreanGodEater: Hold the center of the cross to pop up the menu.
08:50:42DyneThanks aliask

08:52:06scorcheB4gder: do we need more mentors?
08:52:07LloreanGodEater: Okay, I'll mark it down as a quirk of mine. I haven't tried to reproduce it, but it's happened every time I've accidentally run Invadrox when trying to get to Jewels.
08:52:27DyneI've had my E240 Data Abort on boot :(
08:52:32midgeyLlorean: no problems here either
08:52:46Lloreanmidgey: Okay, thanks.
08:52:58LloreanThere's probably some other factor into it then.
08:53:03GodEaterLlorean: I'm on a build from yesterday if that matters
08:53:04B4gderscorche: the more the better, but I think we currently mostly need the mentors to put their attention to the applications and post comments/evals/mentor-offers
08:53:04amiconnLlorean: I would try it on my mini if only invadrox were available for mini
08:53:30amiconnI don't see a reason why invadrox shouldn't be possible on mini
08:53:44*Llorean has evaluated 3 of the 4, commented on 2.

09:36:19thewhoI think we should introduce two constants (OFF and ALWAYS) for backlight_timeout. The magic with set_timeout(1) is not very nice. Or, even better, change the API so that it works with real values instead of index (as amiconn proposed). But constants would be a first step towards readability.
09:38:26JdGordonthewho: yes :D

09:46:19aliaskNope

09:47:11JdGordonthewho: yeah, its all needed... the GO_TO_ defines are standard return values for various functions..
09:47:28JdGordonthe variable is needed because the generic menu handler isnt good enough for the root menu..
09:48:52thewhoJdGordon: ok, so that could be made a topic for the SoC. Menu rework.

09:53:03LinusNstd|denis: yes?
09:53:12JdGordonfunction address are used.. and yes, they go at the end so we dont break compatibility...

09:54:19LinusNstd|denis: is your goal to make a more stable plugin api, for third-party plugins?
09:55:02fourbissimehi there. i've just installed rockbox. all my filenames are encoded in unicode, so are the tags. the tags are displaying fine, but not when I browse the files.
09:55:13std|denisLinusN: main idea is to make rockbox customizable with 3rd-party loadable modules/plugins
09:55:17JdGordonenable a unicode font fourbissime
09:55:59LinusNstd|denis: the rockbox plugins are more like separate applications than plugins
09:56:35B4gderstd|denis: feel free to work on such a concept, but be aware that we will accept very little overhead since at least I don't see a very big benefit
09:57:13B4gderit is very easy to recompile with an up-to-date rockbox
09:57:22std|denisi'm not ready to give you an example of a really useful service module
09:57:24fourbissimethat is done. well, I guess, for I use "unicatcher" skin and the tags are well displayed.
09:57:49JdGordonyou need the unifont tho
09:57:55JdGordondid you extract rockbox-fonts.zip?

09:58:07std|denisB4gder: sure. they could be compiled statically, but how could i give a plugin new service? for example audio-player interface
09:58:26fourbissimeLinusN: utf-8
09:58:28B4gdergive a plugin a new "service" ?
09:58:34B4gderyou rebuild the plugin
09:58:37markunfourbissime: very weird
09:58:51markunusually the files would show up fine but not the tags

09:58:58markuninstead of what you are describing
09:59:08fourbissimeI don't have those little "square" characters. I have the "several weird character display" kind of bug
09:59:34markunfourbissime: which OS were you using the copy the files?
09:59:44fourbissimegentoo linux, 100% unicode
10:00
10:00:07LinusNfourbissime: so it's pure unicode and not utf-8 then?
10:00:08markunfourbissime: because I know you can screw it up with some mount option
10:00:30fourbissimewell, all my files are supposed to be encoded in utf-8
10:00:32std|denisJdGordon: B4gder: as i said yesterday, i want to make e-book [audio+text] plugin. so i need some kind audio-player
10:00:51fourbissimeI plugged my iriver back to see if the filenames are displaying well, and it is the case.
10:00:51LinusNfourbissime: this is weird, since fat-32 filenames are unicode...
10:00:58fourbissimein my term, everything is fine.
10:01:03B4gderstd|denis: so why not write a plugin/viewer and be fine with it?
10:02:06std|denisB4gder: do you advise me to make my own code for loading appropriate codec and do all these analysing stuff by the "hands"?
10:02:12B4gderno
10:02:22B4gderthat stuff should be done by the core
10:02:36B4gderyou would write a viewer, and use the API to control stuff like audio
10:02:50std|denisB4gder: yep. but i can't see any api for audio playback

10:04:43markunfourbissime: I see too options with vfat mounting: codepage and iocharset
10:04:45scorcheso then the answer would be to "look harder"
10:05:04fourbissimeby the way, I didn't use the unicode-aware iRiver firmware. could it be the cause of the problem ?
10:05:14LinusNfourbissime: no
10:05:34std|denisLinusN: it's custom format. text + attributes + mp3 packed together into a single file

10:21:58barrywardellthere is over-current protection built into the sansa to avoid exactly that kind of thing
10:22:48BigBambiOK, on a different topic - gigabeat bootloader. If you turn the unit on with the remote but with the main unit hold switch on, settings are reset. When the check for hold to reset settings is done, is it possible to tell whether it was remote or main unit that was used to power on, and only reset settings if the corresponding hold switch is on, and not the other
10:23:10BigBambiI often have the main unit in my pocket with hold on and turn on with the remote, thereby resetting settings
10:23:32BigBambibarrywardell: So we can tell him he is likely wrong?
10:24:45 Join atsea- [0] (i=ariel@gateway/tor/x-f778965eff41df48)
10:25:05barrywardellBigBambi: i think it is unlikely, however the overcurrent protection is kicking in quite a bit so I guess it is theoretically possible
10:25:53barrywardellBigBambi: i think he he probably wrong
10:26:48BigBambiOK - I didn't want to say shut up, it can't be when it *might* be, but he is spreading quite a scare story quite vociferously (sp?)

10:37:40markunwhy not just change the button combination?
10:37:56BigBambiI don't mind either - I'm just searching flyspray atm
10:38:22SliMMplease?

10:44:39BigBambibarrywardell: On the H1x0, you hold record just after turning on to reset, and I've never done that by mistake in a couple of years of use now, so I think just a simple combination would be fine
10:44:55B4gder... so its just a matter of doing it like people are used to so that it doesn't give surprises, and header files are meant to be able to be included by several files etc
10:45:08barrywardellok, in that case I think A would be the best option

10:49:48Shaidand I'd usually reset my settings because hold was on.
10:50:10Shaidso I'm against hold for resetting settings too, but from a different target :P
10:50:13SliMMso, why isn't the code working?
10:50:24BigBambiShaid: That is slightly seperate though - I'm talking about having the gigabeat off with hold on, but resetting in error when turning on from the remote
10:50:26B4gderSliMM: given a quick look, it isn't easy to see what's working or not or what it is supposed to do
10:50:41BigBambiShaid: Ah, I see what you mean
10:51:14SliMMit is supposed to draw 2 identical squares, but using different methods
10:51:17BigBambiI'm not too bothered, but I overall prefer the record+play combination on my H1x0 to the hold switch system on my gigabeat

11:15:59JdGordonthe bootloader anyway.. I havnt tested an svn sansapatcher..
11:16:43barrywardellJdGordon: how about using the old usb_detect() that doesn't try to differentiate between a computer and charger? that doesn't cause problems on the mac and may be more reliable
11:17:01JdGordonwhich old one?
11:17:33barrywardelllinuxstb: there was one reported "bug" with sansapatcher. double clicking on windows when an old rb bl is installed doesn't keep the window open

13:36:24linuxstbJdGordon: Can you now install the new Rockbox bootloader using the old method? After that, run sansapatcher and just see if it gives you the option to install.
13:36:55JdGordonthats what i did before.. and it gave the option, and did the install
13:37:01linuxstbJdGordon: Because your Sansa's firmware partition will contain only the rockbox bootloader and no OF, sansapatcher should be refusing to operate on it.
13:37:05JdGordonwell i assume it did the installl... it didnt say it failed
13:37:29pondlifeOr maybe Google is just operating that chip they put into your brain to make it appear (to you) that your provider has problems.

14:08:30dan_aIs anyone familiar with programming SD stuff? I'm trying to figure out how to talk to multiple cards on one bus, and I'm not sure if what I'm doing is nearly working or completely wrong
14:09:17WebgiestI just have a simple question, In the current build today for the e200 there was no rockbox.e200 file just the .rockbox folder is this OK?
14:10:40dan_aWebgiest: rockbox.e200 has been moved inside the .rockbox folder
14:11:36Webgiestdan_a: not sure but i think your double buffer commit broke mpeg playback not that it really worked 100% to begin with but now it just says "buffering" and you can hear audio.
14:12:06dan_aWebgiest: I'll check that out
14:12:14Webgiestdan_a ok .e200 got moved should install a new bootloader
14:12:30Webgiestor will it find it it's self?
14:12:44dan_aThe bootloader looks inside .rockbox already
14:12:53Webgiestok thanks
14:13:14Webgiestbtw great job!
14:13:23dan_aThank you!
14:18:20amiconndan_a: I guess that double buffering requires some changes in lcd_yuv_blit()
14:18:33amiconnThat one doesn't call lcd_update()
14:18:42dan_aamiconn: Yes, it's writing to the wrong buffer

14:50:24preglowjhMikeS: am now
14:52:12jhMikeSpreglow: hey. I'd like you to just do a quick double check on my crossfeed instruction reordering to make sure I didn't goof something. It looks and sounds ok.
14:56:52jhMikeSoh, and how critical is the delay line length in this? Would 16 vs. 13 samples work? I'm guessing it's supposed to be the delay from one side of your head to the other.
14:57:26pregloweh
14:57:40preglowwhy do you wonder about the delay length? thinking about just using a mask?
14:58:23preglowthat would break future multiple sample rate support
14:58:41preglowand changing from 13 to 16 might very well not be a good idea sound-wise either
14:58:52preglowwould most certainly break people's settings
14:59:00preglowi can double check, sure, patch somewhere?
15:00
15:03:21jhMikeSok, won't worry about the length then. will pastebin or patch if you actually want to hear it.
15:04:51jhMikeSeh? well I'm just thinking this crossfeed should correspond to physical variables if it's to simulate something.
15:05:02preglowi don't use it myself, so wouldn't know if sounds changed :>
15:05:27preglowthe 13 sample delay depends on your head size
15:05:47jhMikeSright, so we should have a head size setting? :P
15:05:50markunit's find for my head :)
15:05:53markunfine
15:05:53preglowit's the time difference between sound from one speaking arriving at the ear on the same side and the other side
15:06:19jhMikeSthought so :)
15:06:42preglowideally, yes, but the guy who designed the algo said one should be able to compensate to some degree with the other params
15:06:54markungreat, rockbox just crashed..
15:07:13preglowproblem is, if we're going to have a head size setting, we'd pretty much need a fractional delay to accurately represent the settings
15:07:50preglowwhich would lead to further colouration of the sound, and also lots more calculation in the innerloop
15:08:19jhMikeShttp://www.pastebin.ca/405056
15:08:58jhMikeSone sample's not very much distance
15:09:48jhMikeSyeah, I love the mask though
15:09:57jhMikeSnot the movie
15:09:59preglownot very much distance, no, but at those small delay levels, it's a big difference in sound colouration

15:11:22preglowa difference of several hundred hz
15:11:35preglowand anyway
15:11:45preglowif you depend on the mask, you can't adjust it at all for other sample rates
15:11:54preglowmeaning you have a crossfeed that sounds wildly different at different sample rates
15:11:57preglownot very useful
15:12:19preglowas it is, it's still going to sound somewhat different since we'll have to round the delay time off, but it won't be too bad
15:12:52preglowhaha, you've started jumping through hoops to avoid the emac stall? :)
15:13:08jhMikeSof course :)
15:13:19jhMikeSnot too many though and freed a register doing it

15:17:23jhMikeSand yeah, the lea.l 8(%a0), %a0....you're right about that but that's moot now
15:18:21jhMikeSthere's plenty of hoops jumped in the whole update and I think that's where it ends
15:19:14jhMikeSI just need dsp_upsample to not have redundant loading and all should be good
15:19:20jhMikeSdownsample even
15:23:10jhMikeSI guess freeing the register is also what's needed for variable delays anyway
15:23:35preglowall you need is to load a6 from some place instead of calculating it
15:23:42preglowahh, no
15:24:00preglowa reg free would of course help, yes
15:25:35jhMikeSI'm not really sure about freeing two which would be better for that
15:26:05jhMikeSactually I could
15:26:25preglowjust reloading it from mem wouldn't be a too horrible either
15:26:30preglowstack's in iram after all

16:26:45linuxstbI don't see why viewports are a pre-requisite for album-art though - they just make album-art WPSs nicer.
16:27:18Nico_Plinuxstb: I agree with that... I was only mentioning them because they are in the ideas list
16:27:19linuxstbBut viewports would seem to be a prerequisite for any rewrite of the theming aspects of Rockbox.

16:37:05lavidlinuxstb: yeah, that's what i figured. if i want to completely ignore those recommendations, do i need to compile it myself or is the autocompiled bootloader somewhere i can grab?

16:54:51Nico_Pamiconn: so do you think they should be in the GSoC ideas list ?
16:55:01amiconnThe scroll thread will "clone" sub-viewports for each scrolling line, this way storing all sorts of attributes (fg, bg, font...) in order to keep theem constant for the scroling line
16:55:32amiconnjhMikeS: They could overlap, but the result of drawing into overlapping viewports will be undefined
16:55:34jhMikeSso popup displays will be doable from that I take it?
16:55:56jhMikeShmmm
16:55:57amiconnYes, but the caller will be responsible for redrawing the "parent" viewport
16:56:34amiconnViewports will work without explicit init/deinit as long as no scrolling text is involved

17:00:11Nico_PBagder: speaking of being demanding... are you very demanding for student applications ? :)
17:00:24amiconnjhMikeS: Forget back buffers... we don't have and don't want dynamic memory
17:00:35jhMikeSdon't need em
17:00:45amiconn??
17:00:53jhMikeSjust a rectangle band with each rectange having a z-index
17:01:16*amiconn doesn't understand
17:01:17jhMikeSand just one for the whole screen
17:01:31markunI didn't know rockbox ran on a DIY DAP: http://www.diva-portal.org/diva/getDocument?urn_nbn_se_liu_diva-7114-1__fulltext.pdf
17:02:38jhMikeSthe screen would be divided into rectangle strips, which would be divided when a viewport is shown and each of those rectangles has a z-index. if the viewport's z-index is say, >= the band index, it draws...if not it's clipped out
17:03:07amiconnjhMikeS: In order to make the driver redraw the parent, you always need a back buffer.
17:03:49linuxstbmarkun: I remember someone coming here a while ago who was working on a DIY DAP (Coldfire-based with a Wolfson codec IIRC) - probably the same people.
17:04:05markunlinuxstb: yes, it's the same
17:04:12jhMikeSI think I can get away without one...but I did just cook it up in the last hour
17:04:34amiconnjhMikeS: You're talking about a "background" viewport not overdrawing a "foreground" one?
17:04:45jhMikeSright
17:05:07jhMikeSand no overdraw as long as their rectangles
17:05:48jhMikeSthough a blit with a rectangle cut out of the center would be four blits for instance
17:06:14amiconnThat would be rather complex and slow, as both the number of viewports isn't limited and the size is defined in pixels

21:06:08preglowpeople attempting to port that should have at least some dsp experience
21:06:19linuxstbThere are two separate tasks: 1) Port the ffmpeg wma decoder to fixed-point; 2) Extract the wma decoder from ffmpeg and incorporate it in Rockbox - meaning you'll need to either extract the asf container parser from ffmpeg, look around for another one, or write one from scratch.
21:06:27preglowgod, i wish i was still a student...
21:06:32chinaskiwell I havesome good signal processing background

21:08:18chinaskiI'm a computer science student
21:08:56chinaskiwould the port be all about float to fixed point conversion?
21:09:27chinaskior asm optmisation will be needed?
21:09:29linuxstbThat's part of it - the rest is incorporating the codec into Rockbox. ffmpeg and Rockbox and quite different.
21:09:50chinaskiyeah I see
21:09:56preglowfixed point conversion will definitely need to be done first
21:10:03preglowthen integrating into rockbox
21:10:06linuxstbAnd yes, optimisation can never hurt, but IMO that could be an optional extra at the end.

22:31:26Iconebecause i put a complette movie on my Toshiba, and it stop after 10 minutes ( aproximative )
22:31:47LloreanIcone: Split the movie into multiple files, implement rebuffering within the plugin, or wait until someone else implements rebuffering and submits a patch.
22:31:48linuxstbIcone: Read this page http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/PluginMpegplayer
22:31:49bluebrotherno, the "quick keys" −− like play to go to wps etc

23:46:29preglowusbomg
23:46:36LloreanBasically, Players being able to read USB mass storage devices like thumb drives
23:46:41bluebrotherit's a way to make a usb connection without a dedicated host (i.e. PC)

23:49:06oKtosiTeI own an iAUDIO X5.
23:49:07bluebrotherhow does Rockbox handle Firewire atm?
23:49:34acathlaI own a Sansa e200, and it rocks ;)
23:49:47Lloreanbluebrother: We don't. It just charges from it, and ignores it, I believe.
23:50:15bluebrotherok. I guess there is no dedicated firewire chip in the ipods, isn't it?
23:50:25DataGhostnot anymore
23:50:29DataGhostit used to be there, afaik
23:50:36bluebrothera dedicated chip?
23:50:54bluebrothermy mini has a cable that splits into usb and fw
23:50:55DataGhostyeah I remember something like that... and they omitted it in the newer iPods
23:51:04DataGhostgood thing FW charging is still possible though :P
23:51:20bluebrothereven on the newer ones? Nice
23:51:24Lloreanbluebrother: I believe it was just another function of the PP hardware in certain revisions of it.
23:52:12bluebrotherhmm. I hoped for a dedicated chip somewhere ...

23:53:21DataGhosthe probably means 'separate package'
23:53:39bluebrotheryes.
23:54:02bluebrotheroh, the mini 1G has a TSB41AB PHY chip :)
23:54:20bluebrotherbut no information about the 2G on ipl
23:54:35DataGhostwhat information are you hoping for then
23:55:22bluebrotherI was wondering how hard it would be to add firewire detection
23:55:35DataGhostoh wait
23:55:46DataGhosti'm not reading well
23:55:51DataGhostor do you mean nano 2G? or just 2G?
23:55:55DataGhostoh wait mini, lol.
23:56:09bluebrotherand firewire can be quite a beast. If that is handled by a TI chip it might get lots easier
23:56:32*bluebrother worked with firewire during an internship some years ago
23:56:40amiconnMini 2G supports firewire
