#rockbox log for 2007-03-26

00:00:01Soaplinuxstb: I've read that, but the only programs I can find that do it, fake it.
00:00:12XavierGrand the target can display 10fps without problem
00:00:15Lloreanandrewg867: There's a plugin you have to run to configure the random mode.
00:00:22Lloreanandrewg867: It shouldn't be necessary for non-random though
00:00:36 Join web-taz [0] (n=taz@p5081936a.dip0.t-ipconnect.de)
00:00:44andrewg867Llorean: it still doesn't work on non random unless I have to reboot the player
00:00:53web-tazsry i got disconnected
00:01:00 Join JavaMan22 [0] (n=HP_Admin@c-24-61-91-138.hsd1.nh.comcast.net)
00:01:06Soap23.976, 24, 25, 29.97, and 30 are the only ones I've ever made which aren't created with duplicate frames.
00:01:10Lloreanandrewg867: Reboot after choosing "Yes" and going back, or reboot after just enabling non-random without it ever having been "Yes" that boot?
00:01:24 Quit ender` (" MCSE = Moron Claiming System Expertise or Must Call Someone Else?")
00:02:14web-tazfonts: are they installed like themes/WPS or must i recompile the build?
00:02:21web-tazand where do i get them?
00:02:53pearldiverlinuxstb actually i just checked this 25fps one on PC and it gets out of sync too
00:03:01linuxstbSoap: So the programs you use would encode a 15fps file as 30fps (duplicating frames) - resulting in a file with a 30fps framerate?
00:03:01andrewg867Llorean: I haven't even tried using the random option before, I was just using yes and after I updated one day a couple weeks ago it didn't change the directory so I went in and saw the random option there but just switched to no then back to yes but it still doesn't work
00:03:14Soapyea
00:03:32Lloreanandrewg867: The random option is a bit older than a couple weeks.
00:03:54linuxstbSoap: libmpeg2 supports the unoffiical framerates - so in theory you should be able to create genuine 10/12/15fps files.
00:03:56Soapwith the duplicate frame being a simple P frame saying "what <−−he said" as far as I can tell.
00:04:02Lloreanweb-taz: The manual explains the need to download the fonts, and where to get them
00:04:25andrewg867Llorean: I don't remember when it stopped working but it was a while ago
00:04:34web-tazmhh manual... i hate studying englisch texts ;)
00:04:46linuxstbSoap: libmpeg gives the user application a "frame duration" for each frame. So for a 15fps file, the duration would be double that of a 30fps file etc etc.
00:04:46andrewg867I should just manually go back in and revert it back to only having no and yes
00:04:57Lloreanandrewg867: Well, you're the first person to complain about it, which suggests to me at least it's not affecting other people, so it'd be nice to know when it began happening at least.
00:04:59JavaMan22how do i edit a theme
00:04:59Soaphmm
00:05:17JavaMan22i have this ubuntu theme and i want to edit ut
00:05:25Lloreanandrewg867: Avoiding it won't really help the bug get fixed, if there is a bug in it.
00:05:31 Join mirak [0] (n=mirak@m145.net195-132-203.noos.fr)
00:05:36linuxstbSoap: But as you said, it's unofficial (and commented as such in libmpeg2), so maybe very few encoders do it.
00:05:54Soapgive me a second, and I'll have a 12fps example up for you.
00:05:56miraklinuxstb: are you dave chapman ?
00:05:56andrewg867Llorean: I'll look at when it first appeared (the random option) and try reverting that file to see if that fixes it
00:06:03Soaphe's Batman.
00:06:12andrewg867Llorean: if it still doesn't work then something else must have broken it
00:06:26miraklinuxstb: hum yes you are sorry it's written ...
00:06:27scorcheJavaMan22: with a text editor such as vim, emacs, notepad2, etc
00:06:36JavaMan22ok

00:10:35linuxstbmirak: I can't do anything either - I don't have any experience of Coldfire asm, and I don't have a colour Coldfire target.
00:10:48linuxstbmirak: But it seems a shame to leave your patch rotting there...
00:10:51miraklinuxstb: one thing I guess was to put the functions in it's own .S file, I don't know how to do that. Other than that the only thing to change other than the idct.c file is to use a idct block of 128 bytes instead of 64.
00:11:33Lloreanandrewg867: If reverting that fixes it, that doesn't mean that Random is what broke it, though, it just means that reverting random fixes it. Try a full SVN build from shortly after random was introduced and see if it works, that'll tell you more or less if it ever worked. I know random, and folder advance, still worked for some people for a while after introduction, so Random alone didn't globally break it
00:11:34 Quit midgey ()
00:13:14miraklinuxstb: well if it was me I would have uploaded it to cvs and let some people integrate it better, but I understand that how it is the code quality requirements are not reached. (I mean the separate asm code). I don't know how to do that, and it seems that the atempt of RaeNye failed

00:33:18SoapI can't run winamp visualisations on my 500 Mhz x86. I think you would be hard pressed to run them on any rockbox target outside possibly the Gigabeat.
00:33:30linuxstbmarkun: And I would guess it doesn't need optimising on the Gigabeat?
00:33:36miraklinuxstb: is it needed to know coldfire asm to do the separation, or is it just c and gcc skills ?
00:33:42dj-fuSoap, I see

00:36:14LloreanJavaMan22: Rockbox is NOT a game system. It is an audio player. This room is almost entirely full of people who focus on Audio features or, additionally, "media" such as pictures and video, with that being already a fairly low priority.

00:41:43LloreanMany people dedicate a ridiculous amount of time to trying to watch certain TV programmes each week.
00:41:45bluebrotherno :)
00:42:06JavaMan22i like rockbox because theres always updates :)
00:42:07Lloreanmirak: Its primary purpose is as an audio player. It's a jukebox firmware, not an OS, though it has to do many OS-like functions just to meet this purpose.
00:42:13 Quit Arathis ("Bye, bye")
00:42:30bluebrotherthat tv-thing is quite amazing. I barely even want to watch tv
00:43:15JavaMan22i dont watch a lot
00:43:35bluebrotherit also isn't an OS because it doesn't allow you to run arbitrary code. Only the plugins which are quite fixed to the build
00:43:58mirakLlorean: but it evolved, like windows evolved to be used for something else than text writing
00:44:28Lloreanmirak: It may have evolved what it can do, but it didn't really evolve where the core focus is.
00:44:29Bagderwell, rockbox is in fact an OS afaik the definition
00:44:32GRaTTHi, need character set info for m3u2pla playlist converter for sansaE200 patch is made but only works for latin UTF
00:44:39JavaMan22hi
00:44:46*Bagder runs away
00:45:07GRaTTit is real simple code
00:45:21Lloreanmirak: As Bagder said, it may technically be an OS, but that doesn't really change where most of the development focus is, overall.
00:46:02markunGRaTT: was it a question?
00:46:14JavaMan22ok well i hope that google team works on rockboy
00:46:49GRaTTthe OF need playlist with null bytes I use '\0' but it did not work for someone with other than latin UTF
00:47:09*bluebrother goes voting against doom again
00:47:12LloreanJavaMan22: I hate to say it, but we get to pick which applicants get in, which tends to mean we'll mostly pick the ones who are interested in features we consider core or important.
00:47:26JavaMan22>:o
00:47:34bluebrotherwhat is "latin utf"?
00:47:36LloreanJavaMan22: Seriously, if you think iBoy is so much better, just use iBoy. And please quit making those faces, they just waste a line.
00:47:54markunbluebrother: latin1 would be a safe guess I think
00:48:01markuniso8859-1
00:48:18bluebrothersounds like a multibyte vs. singlebyte problem then.
00:48:19JavaMan22iboy has a bunch of color problems
00:48:24JavaMan22and not all roms work on it
00:48:24GRaTTbluebrother: specific character set. I know nothing about char sets.
00:48:53bluebrotherGRaTT, there is no "latin utf" −− utf is multibyte and includes like "everything"
00:48:55JavaMan22im playing metal gear solid and when i go up this elevator the game crashes on iboy
00:49:02bluebrotherin europe the usual charset is latin1
00:49:16JavaMan22i tryed to open the save file with rockboy but it didnt work
00:49:19bluebrotheror to be more precise was latin1, and got superseded by latin9
00:49:24jjorelatin1-something, usually, isn't it?
00:49:26GRaTTmarkun: I have modified it to use the defined NULL but unsure if this will fix it.
00:49:33bluebrotherwhich is basically the same but has the euro-symbol added
00:49:54markunGRaTT: I have no clue what m3u2pla is :)
00:50:01bluebrotherGRaTT, if you are writing chars the right character is '\0'
00:50:14mirakLlorean: respect the users ;)
00:50:33bluebrotherwhile NULL is used for pointers (and is not necessarily the value 0)
00:50:36GRaTTmarkun: it is a plugin I have made to convert the rockbox playlist to a version the Sansa E200 can read

01:04:24andrewg867there you go :)
01:05:05Lloreanandrewg867: As long as the file doesn't clip, it shouldn't distort all the way up to 0dB, I believe, unless something is wrong.
01:05:26LloreanThough I personally listen at about -40, on my other Rockbox players. :)
01:05:34andrewg867it will start to distort since I increased the DAC -> Mixer gain
01:06:03andrewg867I find -9dB is nice and loud for me, just for those times when you don't want to hear anything else
01:06:11Llorean0dB should be line level.
01:06:14***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
01:06:14LloreanWhich shouldn't distorty.
01:06:16Lloreandistort
01:06:34LloreanIf you've got it so that "0dB" is actually distorting, it suggests to me there's a problem of some sort.
01:06:38andrewg867maybe someone could figure out the ideal gain level then :)
01:07:01LloreanWell, at 0, no gain should be added to or subtracted from the level of the file, if I understand.
01:07:01andrewg867its just the DAC -> Mixer gain that needs tweaking now
01:07:19andrewg867the gains I am talking about are internal chip gains
01:07:44LloreanYes, but those chips would be modifying the level before output, no?
01:08:17andrewg867nope, it is all software controlled from what I see

01:13:17safetydanlinuxstb, I'm not even sure if it's possible... doesn't the grayscale lib take CPU time? Is there enough left over after audio/video decoding for rendering?
01:13:52safetydanLlorean, on a side note, stereo Speex support is probably a long way off. The whole stereo decoding path is floating point.
01:14:24Lloreansafetydan: Honestly, I'm fine with that. :)
01:14:37Soaphow much "smearing" would using the greyscale library create?
01:14:47andrewg867Llorean: it should be -23.25dB gain on the DAC -> Mixer if my calculations are correct
01:15:22Lloreanandrewg867: I'm misunderstanding something then (not uncommon since I'm not familiar with how this hardware works) but wasnt it at -16.5 (more gain) before?
01:15:55safetydanLlorean, good, good. Now I just have to remember to commit the minor change that makes stereo files decode as mono rather than the noise they do now.
01:16:12linuxstbsafetydan: Yes, CPU usage will be tight.
01:16:39linuxstbsafetydan: Which is why I think rvf is preferred - better quality will be possible than with mpeg.
01:16:48andrewg867Llorean: hrm maybe their calculations are more correct than mine, but that new value (0x16) should still be higher
01:16:53Lloreanlinuxstb: How's the compression ratio on RVF?
01:16:57 Join Slowking_Man [0] (n=slow@wikipedia/Slowking-Man)
01:17:03linuxstbLlorean: There isn't any.
01:17:22andrewg867Llorean: it might be -20dB also, I haven't the slighest clue on how to calculate it
01:17:37linuxstbIIUC, it's mono bitmaps at the refresh rate of the LCD - around 70Hz I think.
01:17:49Lloreanlinuxstb: Okay, clarification, how's the ratio of RVF size to a color, compressed video of equivalent size?
01:18:14andrewg867Llorean: oops, I was looking at the wrong page in the datasheet
01:18:30Lloreanandrewg867: I'm just concerned about the distortion at 0dB. I don't get it with my other Rockbox players, and use that since most of them don't have a Line Out for me to use.
01:19:03linuxstbLlorean: Well, 160x128x70 gives 1.4Mbit/s... I'm not sure about the 70Hz part of that equation.
01:19:05andrewg867Llorean: let me try the calculations again, the maximum is 6dB which the 5bit volume would be 11111, and lowest of -40.5dB 00000
01:19:13 Quit Nico_P (Remote closed the connection)
01:19:17*scorche wishes the archos units had a proper line out
01:19:25Lloreanlinuxstb: Hm. So, larger filesizes, but likely better playback.
01:20:50amiconnscorche: The player does...
01:21:11Lloreanandrewg867: -7.5, I think
01:21:15*linuxstb spots someone who can correct my guesses about rvf playback
01:21:28andrewg867Llorean: also when I recorded earler I used a volume of -15dB on rockbox
01:21:41pixelmaLlorean: amiconn made a "elephant's dream.rvf" - you could encode it at same resolution as mpeg and compare
01:22:07pixelmaIIRC it is ~45MB
01:22:10Lloreanpixelma: What resolution is it?
01:22:22andrewg867Llorean: if you could try out the patch and try lowering the gain until you feel it is an inprovment

01:23:15Lloreanpixelma: Alright. And the elephant's dream at 224x128 (four times the resolution) is 42m
01:23:18Lloreanmb
01:23:39andrewg867Llorean: also what I though would be nice is a menu to select the gain level yourself almost like the sandisk "Normal" or "High" volume menu
01:23:42Lloreansafetydan: Thanks, it's mostly curiosity.
01:23:46amiconnlinuxstb: The 70Hz would be correct for H1x0 and M5
01:24:06Lloreansafetydan: Just trying to weigh in pros/cons of RVF on iRiver H100 in my mind.
01:24:31amiconnFor greyscale iPods this would be 88Hz
01:25:03linuxstbOuch, about 1.8Mbit/s for the video stream...
01:25:15amiconnLlorean: The big pro is that it would be definitely realtime, and less grainy than using the grayscale lib and mpeg video decoding
01:25:15Lloreanandrewg867: I disagree. The whole point of the dB scale on the output is to give users an objective view of the audio levels being produced, so I think it's an issue of getting things set up right. Otherwise I think if we had "Normal" and "High" we'd have to have something strange with how the volume is displayed.
01:25:26Lloreanamiconn: And I do agree, that's a very, very big pro.
01:25:36Lloreanamiconn: Actually being able to watch it is one of the most important features of video.
01:25:43amiconnWith mp3 audio it wouldn't even need to boost...

01:26:34amiconnlinuxstb: This bitrate is roughly equal to pcm wav. Not excessively high imho
01:27:11*amiconn needs to fix some more plugins for the new charcell code :/
01:28:27andrewg867Llorean: remember that it also depends on the song that you are playing to determine your desired listening/line out recording volume. I found that with just the SVN build it was way too low with my headphones for any song
01:28:47linuxstbYes, not excessively high, but MPEG files at 160x128 don't need to be much more than 200kbps-300kbps, so they will be very large in comparison.
01:29:20Lloreanandrewg867: "Line out" volume shouldn't be used with anything but something that has a line-in. It's not the same concept as a listening level.
01:30:09andrewg867why not have a preset menu option to change the values around so you have a true 'Line out' where you can't change the volume
01:30:25Aloneaok, I am confused, the video file I had on there before that played fine except I didnt have the rebuffering of course, now says the file in incompatible.
01:30:30Lloreanandrewg867: Because 0dB should land perfectly on Line Out level, and -1dB should be exactly 1db below that level, and so on.
01:30:36andrewg867so it might be a menu called "Line out" and in there have "Yes" "No" and custom
01:30:47 Quit marc| (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
01:30:48linuxstbAlonea: That message probably means the plugin is incompatible.
01:30:49LloreanThat's the whole point in having an objective-scale volume level.
01:30:50amiconnARtificial option bloat?
01:31:05andrewg867it would technically be -1.25dB I think with the way the headphone amp adjusts gain
01:31:31linuxstbAlonea: i.e. your main "rockbox.xxxx" file and the plugins are out of sync.
01:31:32Alonealinuxstb: I am trying to watch an mpeg and look at the new rebuffering. I am using the same mpeg I was testing out about a month or so ago.
01:31:38andrewg867*1.5dB
01:31:52LloreanSo is -4dB displayed -5 in reality, and then no change to -5, or is there compensation somehow? (rounding up the display so you get -1, -3, -4, -5)
01:32:02andrewg867each binary increase, ex: from 00000 to 00001 is 1.5dB gain change
01:32:08LloreanOr then -1, -3, -5, -6?
01:32:09Alonealinuxstb: ok, probably messed up somewhere there when I put the new rockbox on.
01:32:12LloreanEr -2, -3, -5, -6
01:32:21andrewg867Llorean: I'm not sure how it is currently calculated
01:32:48LloreanBecause the volume display needs to be objective. It should tell the user actual information about what they're getting out, rather than "You're one 'notch' below the highest level" etc.
01:32:52 Quit yossa ("Chatzilla 0.9.77 [Firefox 2.0.0.3/2007030919]")
01:33:04linuxstbLlorean: I think the volume is stored in 1dB units, and then converted to the DAC's units when being set. So it would mean that some increments don't change the volume.
01:33:31andrewg867tenthdb2master() and tenthdb2mixer() in the as3514.c is where it is calculated I think
01:34:07Lloreanlinuxstb: I'm fine with that then. My main concern was if the further you got from 0, the less the displayed volume matched the internal on.
01:34:13Lloreanlinuxstb: And I'm still concerned about distortion at 0dB.
01:34:17 Part JavaMan22
01:35:05linuxstbLlorean: I think it happens elsewhere in Rockbox - e.g. the bass/treble controls on the Nano/Photo are in 1.5dB increments IIRC.
01:35:36Aloneaoh, ok, when it makes the zip, it no longer put the rockbox.gigabeat outside the .rockbox folder...
01:35:47Lloreanlinuxstb: If going from -2 to -3 doesn't change the gain (or -1 to -2) so that -3, -6, -9 all always match up exactly, I'm pretty much fine with it being that way
01:36:38linuxstbAlonea: No. You should delete the version in your gigabeat's root to prevent confusion.
01:37:26Alonealinuxstb: ok, so does the rockbox.gigabeat now go in the inside or outside of .rockbox?
01:37:38linuxstbinside.
01:37:56Alonealinuxstb: ok. I haven't updated the firmware in ages so i didn't know about the change

01:40:40midgeylinuxstb: i know for sure that the march 12th release works
01:40:45twenty6ixi just installed Rockbox today and i'm loving it :)
01:40:50twenty6ixamazingly customizable
01:41:14twenty6ixi was worried before i wouldn't be able to watch mp4 movies, and i find mpg way too large once converted, but still being able to boot into the Apple OS is handy :)
01:41:38Alonealinuxstb: ok, where abouts on the rockbox site do I get the bootloader?
01:41:38twenty6ixanyone know of a Texas Hold'Em game for Rockbox?
01:41:44linuxstbIf your mpg file is too large, you're encoding at too high a bitrate.
01:41:57perldiver20min mpeg video file is 100mb
01:42:10midgeytwenty6ix: no such game exists

01:42:40twenty6ixguess what resolution most of my iPod videos are
01:42:42lokasennarockbox on my e200 series sansa occasionally flips out, the screen looks like a random mess, is that something thats been documented and is being worked on? or is my sansa just flippy?
01:42:49linuxstbtwenty6ix: Yes, mpegplayer isn't really usable on the ipod video.
01:43:11twenty6ixyeah, that's why still being able to access the Apple OS is handy

01:43:24linuxstbAlonea: Follow the install instructions in the manual.
01:43:30twenty6ixall Rockbox needs is a good mp4 player and it'll be able to take over :)
01:43:53twenty6ixAlonea: i was nervous myself when i did it cause i thought i might mess it up, but it was actually really easy
01:43:55twenty6ixyou'll be fine
01:44:12linuxstbThat's unlikely for the ipod video - the CPU is too slow, and the hardware video decoder is undocumented.

01:45:06linuxstbExactly, and no-one cares enough to do it.
01:45:12twenty6ixyeah
01:45:28twenty6ixmay as well just use the Apple OS for videos
01:46:36twenty6ixthanks for the help guys
01:46:42Alonealinuxstb: ok, sliiight problem. i thought it was connecting to my computer, but its not...I remember on the bootscreen it would tell you commands that you could do if things went wrong
01:47:33twenty6ixoh, also... is there no native FLAC tag support on Rockbox?
01:47:58linuxstbYes, Rockbox supports vorbis comments in FLAC files.
01:48:03SoapFLAC tags have been supersceded by Vorbis comments have they nopt?
01:48:09twenty6ixhmm, maybe these FLACs don't have tags
01:48:11twenty6ixi'll have to checj
01:48:13twenty6ix*check
01:48:30linuxstbSome (broken) encoders like to put id3v2 tags on everything...
01:48:44Soappeople used to put APE tags on flac, some even did ID3 on flac. There are a lot of funky things people did to them in the past.
01:48:52twenty6ixi'm surprised Rockbox didn't just read the filename and output that
01:48:59twenty6ixi was getting blank artist and title
01:49:14linuxstbIt does - if the WPS is coded correctly.
01:49:19Soapfoobar 0.8 would put APE on them by default, unless you turned that off, regardless of what you had used previously.

02:40:45JdGordonhey midgey, thanks for fixing up xobox... I forgot to check colors on the non-colour target :p
02:41:08midgeyno problem, its an issue i came across while converting to the old API
02:41:44midgeywhich macro should I be using for int settings? the old api was rb->set_int()
02:41:45JdGordonhopefully that example is good enough to get the other plugins going... although, I think there is a better way still
02:42:00JdGordonyeah, still use that
02:42:21JdGordonthe MENUITEM_SETTING macro wont work in plugins
02:42:37midgey:) i tried that once
02:43:40midgeycurrently i have the menu choices using MENITEM_STINGLIST and the int menus use set_int
02:43:51midgeybut once you get into an int setting, you can't exit
02:44:38midgeyam i missing the way to jump back into the parent menu?

02:47:39midgeyso do_menu(&menu, &selection) is the call I'm looking for?

02:59:40linuxstbWhich would be the most suitable for mpegplayer?
03:00
03:00:00amiconnThe grayscale lib supports 2 modes: buffered and unbuffered
03:00:18XavierGrlinuxstb: hehe exactly what I did too but you beat me to it
03:00:33amiconnbuffered causes less flicker and should be faster if only a part of the pixels changes its values
03:00:51amiconnunbuffered causes more flicker, is faster when the whole screen changes, and uses less ram
03:01:04XavierGrnow I will try a fullscreen video it seems viewable :)
03:01:24XavierGrthough rvf has the nice hack with the contrast
03:01:36 Join bonbonthejon [0] (n=jon@69.61.203.3)
03:03:09linuxstbamiconn: How would you compare the CPU requirements of the grayscale lib with the yuv2rgb conversion - i.e. would you expect the H140 (or M5) to display faster or slower than the X5?
03:03:16XavierGrit sure will be interesting to port the rvf plugin, I will have a look on it but I am sure it will not be easy for me, mpegplayer was pretty straight forward
03:03:27amiconnlinuxstb: Definitely slower
03:04:03XavierGrI will try to measure performance though I doubt that the fps will display on top of the grayscale lib
03:04:08amiconnThe grayscale lib needs to do lots of bitshuffling in lcd_*gray_bitmap*
03:05:20amiconnOn H1x0 it manages to do ~8fps iirc with just fullscreen lcd_ub_gray_bitmap() calls boosted (it's boosted anyway due to the timer usage)
03:05:56amiconnArm seems to like bitshuffling much more: ~26fps on ipod mini G2 under the same conditions
03:06:17amiconn(of course the mini has an advantage here)
03:06:18***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
03:07:56XavierGrit is dead slow....
03:08:04XavierGreven with frame skipping is left back
03:08:30amiconnWell, mpeg decoding on grayscale targets could be made a bit faster by skipping luma decoding
03:08:36amiconnErm, chroma
03:08:48XavierGrindeed
03:08:55 Quit Alonea ("Chatzilla 0.9.77 [Firefox 2.0.0.2/0000000000]")
03:10:59XavierGrwell definitely slower than H300 (with the same file of course)
03:11:40safetydanIs the H120 LCD 2-bit natively?
03:11:55XavierGrbut I don't see why it will be bad to include it on SVN, we have rockboy for archoses too, so just for the consistency it would be good to have it on grayscale targets too
03:12:27XavierGrsafetydan: iirc H100 can draw natively 4 shades of gray
03:12:42XavierGrand more with the greyscale lib
03:12:53safetydanI wonder what 4 color videos might look like? Would certainly be faster.
03:13:20linuxstbXavierGr: Is there any difference between your patch and mine? Did I forget anything?
03:13:31LloreanIt's worth a chance, I mean with the blurring of the LCD anyway, I'm not sure there's a huge advantage to graylib in the end
03:13:49XavierGrlinuxstb: let me check again but I don't think you did. And you took the time to #ifdef it properly :)
03:14:18*linuxstb wonders how well mpegplayer works on the Archos...
03:14:39linuxstbs/works/would work/
03:15:26XavierGrlinuxstb: I used the audio buffer for the grayscale init
03:16:06XavierGralso you don't update after the gray_ub function
03:16:31XavierGr gray_update_rect(output_x,output_y,output_width,output_height);
03:17:17linuxstbIs the update needed in unbuffered mode? It works without it...
03:17:49XavierGrI am not sure I just copied actions from the sim part
03:18:08XavierGrdo you uninitialize the greyscale lib at the end of the plugin?
03:18:19linuxstbAh, no...
03:18:27XavierGrgray_release();
03:19:18XavierGralso the fps display info won't be able to be shown while the video is playing
03:19:33linuxstbAh, it seems gray_release() just calls gray_show(false), which I was doing.
03:19:45linuxstbBut I've changed it.
03:20:13amiconnlinuxstb: It's currently equivalent, but it's not guaranteed that this stays
03:20:39linuxstbOf course - I was just wondering why it worked without it.
03:21:17XavierGrI say commit, it is fun to have it nonetheless :D
03:21:21amiconnIn unbuffered mode you must not call gray_update()
03:22:23linuxstbamiconn: Can you have a quick look at the patch? http://www.pastebin.ca/410000
03:23:15linuxstbI guess mpegplayer should now be built for all SWCODEC targets?
03:23:40linuxstb(excluding IFP, which doesn't get anything...)
03:25:12XavierGrwith all this video talk I can't wait for my Gigabeat to arrive...
03:25:39amiconnThe iFP could easily use the grayscale lib (but I guess there is no sufficient ram for mpeg decoding)
03:26:43linuxstbI think the CPU would struggle as well - it's just a single core ARM.
03:27:04linuxstbconfig-ifpxxx.h says the frequency is 30MHz...
03:27:54linuxstbNo wonder he's working so hard on optimisations (assuming that freq is correct).
03:29:56Lloreanlinuxstb: It's 60mhz, in reality, I believe
03:29:58amiconn60MHz
03:30:15amiconn30MHz is CPUFREQ_NORMAL
03:30:29amiconnblah
03:30:36amiconnIt's CPUFREQ_DEFAULT
03:31:02linuxstbBut yes, RAM would be the problem.
03:31:43*amiconn would like to see the grayscale lib adapted to iFP
03:31:58LloreanIsn't the iFP's screen the same as the H100 remote?
03:32:06amiconnSome plugins which use it don't need much ram. e.g. mandelbrot or cube
03:33:00*linuxstb commits mpegplayer for grayscale lib
03:33:44linuxstbamiconn: I assume you can't draw text in the grayscale lib?
03:34:11XavierGrlinuxstb: nice!
03:34:24XavierGrlinuxstb: not on top of it iirc
03:34:43XavierGrbut I might be wrong on that
03:34:50safetydanlinuxstb, very nice. Didn't think anyone would actually do it :)
03:35:16linuxstbsafetydan: It turned out to be trivial - I never expected it to work immediately...
03:35:21XavierGrsafetydan: yeah it was a shame not to have considering how easy it was to do it

03:37:02linuxstbBut as amiconn said, the next step would be to hack libmpeg2 so it doesn't decode the luma.
03:38:49safetydans/luma/chroma/
03:41:29JdGordonmidgey: looks good, except you shold look for the default: case where do_menu() returns < 0
03:41:42JdGordonwhen the user wants to quit....
03:41:49*linuxstb spots a sim warning
03:42:25JdGordonactually... you should really only quit plugin menus when you ge GO_TO_PREVIOUS or GO_TO_ROOT
03:43:33*linuxstb fixes warning
03:44:14safetydanbah, lousy work proxy blocks downloading things ending in .mpg
03:44:34midgeyJdGordon: does that mean everything's all good or do i need to account for those cases?
03:44:42amiconnlinuxstb: Now you can't, but you can temporarily clip the grayscale overlay in order to show text outside of it
03:44:59amiconngrayscale.c should show how this is done
03:45:38JdGordonmidgey: you _should) check for those cases... unless you dont want to allow the user to quit with the back or menu buttons...
03:45:43JdGordonbut that looks good...
03:45:43amiconnJust remember that you *must not* call any non grayscale lib function that writes directly to the lcd controller while the overlay is running
03:46:10amiconnThis is because the grayscale lib does write to the lcd controller in an isr
03:46:29linuxstbHmm... I should probably disable the "show fps" option for now then...
03:46:47linuxstbAlthough it's off by default.
03:47:15 Join jhulst [0] (n=jhulst@adsl-69-209-114-31.dsl.klmzmi.ameritech.net)
03:47:53amiconnThis is what gray_deferred_lcd_update() is for
03:48:35amiconnYou can call this if you have drawn something outside the grayscale overlay area, and would normally need to do lcd_update()
03:48:58amiconnIt will make the grayscale lib call lcd_update() the next time the isr is running
03:49:05Lloreanlinuxstb: MPEGplayer definitely does lose sync over time.
03:49:21linuxstbLlorean: It doesn't in my 1-hour test file...
03:49:40*linuxstb likes to blame encoders for sync issues
03:50:13perldiverlinuxstb how did you make it?
03:50:19perldiverwhat fps, settings, etc
03:50:29linuxstbThat's the problem, I can't remember....
03:50:44perldiverit gets _slightly_ out of sync
03:50:45linuxstbI made it around Christmas when I first started work on audio.
03:50:50perldiverits visible, not crucial
03:50:50Lloreanlinuxstb: I'll see if it gets worse by the end of the file, and then test that file in a PC-side player (the only copy of the file is on the player)
03:51:02LloreanI'm watching a movie on it right now, and it's lost about a quarter or half second of sync. Not much, but just enough to be clearly noticeable.
03:51:21perldiverwhat Llorean said, same experience here
03:51:44LloreanAnd I didn't notice it until shortly after I felt the disk spinning, making my brain jump to rebuffering conclusions, but I've no evidence of that except an assumption based on very little information. :)
03:51:45linuxstbperldiver: But didn't you say the same happened on your PC?
03:52:43linuxstbLlorean: If it plays in sync on a PC, can you upload the file somewhere, and I'll have a look.
03:52:45perldiverlinuxstb only one encode, initial 29.79 behaves nicely on PC
03:53:05linuxstbWas the source video 29.97?
03:53:10perldiveryes
03:53:19Lloreanlinuxstb: If it does, I will. I'll assume for now that it won't, and that it was the encoder, until I get proof. :)
03:53:35*amiconn thinks we should get rid of yuv_bitmap_part() in mpegplayer for the sim
03:53:46perldiverit happens about 10 minutes in a 20 min file
03:53:48amiconnThe sim needs to implement lcd_yuv_blit()
03:54:04perldiverin in*
03:54:25linuxstbDoes it suddenly lose sync, or is it gradual?
03:54:39perldiversuddenly
03:55:08perldiverlike Llorean said, it gets half a second out of sync
03:55:08linuxstbBut you can't notice any audio drop-outs?
03:55:17Lloreanlinuxstb: The audio is slightly ahead of the video, for me.
03:55:20perldiverso even if its gradually it's very hard to notice
03:55:39perldiverlinuxstb no, the picture and sound are smooth all the way through
03:56:21Lloreanlinuxstb: I do think it might be gradual though, I _think_ it's getting worse with time. It's hard to tell.
03:56:46*Llorean goes to try it on the PC
03:57:49Lloreanlinuxstb: The file appears to be perfectly in sync on a PC player when I seek to the same part of it.
03:58:06linuxstbWhat about if you play it from the start?
03:58:14LloreanI'm testing that now
03:58:26LloreanThe sync issues weren't noticed until about 15 minutes in, so I'll let you know in 15 minutes
03:58:47linuxstbI'll probably be asleep, but I'll check the logs in the morning.
03:58:51LloreanOkay
04:00
04:01:30JdGordonif you enable cpu frequency... do you need to rebuild codecs also?
04:02:24linuxstbNo, you shouldn't need to. But you should rebuild plugins.
04:02:27perldiveralso, to connect usb while video is playing is a bad idea, locks the player

08:29:06midkaynice :)
08:29:19LloreanThe video's at 600kbps with the audio at 128kbps, so it's a bit higher than it needs to be.

08:32:33LloreanIt's possible this is, once more, in the same family of "audio plays slightly faster than it should" that I discovered with speex.

09:28:15Lloreanmarkun: I know it'll help, but I just was curious in what sort of range.
09:28:27LloreanLike, if it's twice as busy does it draw twice as much, or only maybe 5% more?

10:12:33markundamn, that has to be improved :)
10:12:41Slasheriroolku: (if you can see this from logs), i hope the recent change does not affect the playcount/score of the last track when stopped with stop button. Otherwise scores are getting wrong if you just stop the playback in the middle of track and then resume it later. It should happen only at end of playlist

10:18:11amiconnThe tricky part is in the new (renamed) lcd-charcell.c
10:20:58amiconnBtw, it looks like quite some space-saving would be possible by statically initializing the screen_access structures

12:15:23amiconnHmm, and SYS_EVENT is 0x8000000, which is negative as a long32, but very positive as long64
12:15:37Lloreanlinuxstb: The file that went out of sync on the gigabeat was a 25fps original file without any changes applied to the framerate.
12:15:41amiconnThe latter always yields false when compared with an int
12:16:00amiconn...since an it that large *is* negative, and stays negative when extended to a long64
12:16:05linuxstbI think the issue is that mpegplayer bases its av sync purely on the "frame duration" of each video frame, rather than the PTS (presentation timestamp) stored in the program stream container. So if the frame duration is inaccurate, then you'll get problems.

12:24:29Lloreanlinuxstb: I don't know the history of the 25fps file well enough. And now that I think of it, my friend is rather fond of point and click for encoding DVDs.
12:25:03*linuxstb wonders if Rockbox's playlist features could be extended to use viewer plugins - jpeg, mpegplayer etc
12:25:09Soap (I don't know if the math is even right) 23.976/24=.999 15*60*.001=0.9 = almost one second off. Like I said, not sure of the math.
12:25:29Lloreanlinuxstb: I've thought of that before, but there'd have to be something in viewer.config that marks them as valid or not for playlisting

12:26:21linuxstbLlorean: Yes, a directory with mixed content would be confusing... The user probably doesn't want music stopped and a text viewer popping up...
12:27:15LloreanIt'd also magically sorta make MIDI able to work
12:27:24linuxstbLlorean: Is the loss of sync in the 25fps file worse than your 23.976fps file?
12:27:36Lloreanlinuxstb: It appears to be about the same.
12:28:15Soapohh, two different mpgs

12:29:33linuxstbOK, that's odd... I'm convinced my 25fps test file was still in sync after an hour. This was encoded from a rock-solid 25fps source MPEG file.
12:30:19 Quit crashd ("Changing server")

12:46:06Lloreanlinuxstb: Wouldn't that mean, though, that the video is playing too slowly compared to the sound?
12:46:54linuxstbYes. But I thought that's what you said? i.e. that audio was before the video?
12:47:26LloreanYes, but when I played the 25fps file side by side with the PC, it stayed perfectly in sync with the video on the PC.
12:47:39LloreanWould the PC player be slowing down the audio to compensate then?
12:48:46linuxstbPossibly, yes. I guess it would depend on what the PC player uses for the master clcok.
12:49:11LloreanAlso, the file at 23.976 still goes out of sync
12:49:57JdGordonwoiuldnt the PC program be holding the frames on the screen longer instead of slowing the audio down?
12:50:05JdGordonthat makes more sense to me...
12:50:19LloreanJdGordon: If it were holding the frames on the screen longer, then it would've gone out of sync visually with the file playing on the player.

12:51:34cadu_hello guys! one question: i have tagged all my songs accordingly and correctly, would like to know what apps can be used 'efficiently' for synchronizing big libraries onto a rockboxed player....
12:51:52 Quit cadu (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
12:52:02cadu_i mean, like reproducing the library on a folder structure on the player and being able to identify removed files, renamed, retagged and just change these on the device accordingly
12:52:18decayedcell_using Tag&Rename
12:52:24decayedcell_you can make folders
12:52:31decayedcell_and rename the music according the tags
12:52:51decayedcell_e.g. artist/album/song
12:52:57cadu_my songs are already on a big library separated by artist/album/song
12:52:58decayedcell_that'll get it into a folder structure
12:53:09cadu_and they're all tagged and well renamed
12:53:17decayedcell_what player do you have? you could just copy it all to the player if its not an ipo

12:53:56linuxstbdecayedcell_: You can copy it all to the player if it's an ipod as well... You just can't use the original firmware (but that applies to other targets, such as the gigabeat as well)
12:53:56obocadu_: unison or rsync might be worth a look
12:54:07cadu_just wanted a way to do it automagically, like add a new album to this library and plug my rockbox, hit update/synchronize and it would update the new songs, delete the songs i deleted, retag things needed, like if i changed the name of a song from 'The Sirn' to 'The Siren'
12:54:33cadu_btw i did all the tagging job in Foobar2000 then made a nice script to rename/move all albums and songs on a nice tree structure
12:54:36decayedcell_yeah I forgot about that detail
12:54:45cadu_i have a toshiba F with rockbox
12:55:08cadu_obo, i was thinking about that, those mantain like a small database of files, so they just updated the updated files
12:55:23cadu_obo, heheh , that was a question :P
12:55:52obounison creates a database, rsync doesn't
12:56:15JdGordonLlorean: can you do me a wuit favour please? how many threads are running on your sansa?
12:56:35JdGordonand the bottom how many are on the COP?
12:56:41 Part decayedcell_
12:56:57JdGordons/wuit/quick
12:57:28cadu_obo, so if at host computer i add a folder (meaning new album, for example) to another folder and run unison, it'll only update the new folder ?
12:57:43JdGordonactually... the h300 and the sansa should have the same threads going right? except the extra "main" thread on the COP?
12:58:00LloreanJdGordon: 12, 2 of them are on (1)
12:58:22JdGordonthanks
12:58:23cadu_obo, unison and rsync seem nice alternatives, but ONE question remains in my head : my player has 20gb and i have like 24gb on my library, how would it cope with that?
12:59:55obocadu_: yes, it'll copy the new folder over. You can adjust the config file to exclude various paths/folders to cut things down a bit
13:00
13:00:43cadu_obo, it would nice to script over unison or something to make it go copying files from folders randomly until it fits 20gb
13:01:00cadu_like populating the player, you would have the biggest selection, not everything would be complete...of course :P
13:01:39cadu_obo, my library is composed of 4 folders : rock / electronica / brasil and _unorganized
13:02:27cadu_the new files/album folders are directly thrown in _unorganized, and my script in foobar shows them with a red color + missing fields, meaning : must organize it

13:04:13obocadu_: it's designed to sync one path to another - I'm not sure it'll do exactly what you're after...
13:04:54cadu_obo, i'm reading the documentation now, thank you :) by the way, do you know some of those 'synchro' programs like MediaMonkey ?

13:14:11cadu_obo, what do you use ? :P
13:14:59linuxstbLlorean: Playing your file in mplayer, there's a value (called "ct" - for correction) which mplayer uses to maintain AV sync. This value starts at around 0.125 seconds, and is slowly increasing. Meaning there is some drift that mplayer takes account of and corrects....
13:15:54Lloreanlinuxstb: Ah, so the file itself is out of sync, but mplayer corrects for it and mpegplayer doesn't?
13:16:00linuxstbYes.
13:17:14LloreanIs ct an artifact of bad encoding, or is it something normal?
13:17:45linuxstbAre they different things? Maybe bad encoding is normal....
13:18:05linuxstbBut either way it seems very common so mpegplayer will need to deal with it.
13:18:17LloreanBad as in "non-standard" or something similar. :-P

13:19:30 Quit Kitt0s ("( www.nnscript.de :: NoNameScript 4.02 :: www.XLhost.de )")
13:19:40linuxstbIt probably isn't that much work. Currently mpegplayer ignores the PTS values (which is bad), at the very least it should take account of the offset between audio and video at the start of the stream. Your issue seems to be that this difference drifts throughout the file.

13:35:15Slasheriroolku: but if that was a good track and you stop playback, then the score will be lower

14:03:02XavierGrI don't know what that error means...
14:03:09JdGordonmore than 16 items in viewer.config...
14:03:27JdGordono the combined length of the llines in that file are longer than some buffer.. iirc
14:03:41XavierGrit must be with recent additions of mpegplayer and the rvf I am playing now
14:04:15XavierGrso to fix it I have to increase the line buffer of the viewer.config?

14:49:58barrywardellyes, but it doesn't say anything about needing a PP5022.mi4 file. Just use sanspatcher as linuxstb says
14:50:09barrywardellwhat operating system do you have?
14:50:24sbehbarrywardell: in makefile PP5022.mi4 is defined as required

14:55:08sbehthe first cpu acts like ppc
14:55:13B4gderaha
14:55:19GodEater_all the PS3 distros are PPC based
14:55:24sbehyes
14:55:45GodEater_I might even avoicd using gentoo on it if you guys will lay off ribbing me about it ;)
14:55:53B4gderhahaha
14:56:04sbehyou don`t have the full cell-power when using this linux-mode of ps3
14:56:13linuxstbGodEater: So have you chosen a distro yet? I've also just bought a PS3 and (as soon as I buy a USB keyboard) will be installing Linux.
14:56:21B4gder"A set of 128 registers, each 128 bits wide"
14:56:29B4gder!
14:56:29GodEater_linuxstb, not yet no
14:56:36GodEater_linuxstb, have you ? :
14:56:46sbehlinuxstb: btw this file does not help
14:56:56GodEater_I've also got to raid my parts bin and see if I have a spare usb keyboard
14:57:02B4gderthe ps3 is nicely prepared to run linux though it seems
14:57:10GodEater_B4gder, seems to be yes :)
14:57:16sbehi dont think so
14:57:29linuxstbNo. I normally install Debian everywhere, but am also bored of fighting with Linux installations, so am thinking of finding something more tailored to the PS3.
14:57:31sbehif you run linux on ps3, the hardware gets some limits
14:57:40B4gderof course
14:57:48sbehyou need to hack to get full power of ps3 and run linux on it
14:58:13GodEater_linuxstb, so YellowDog ?
14:58:16B4gderit still is prepared to run linux fine
14:58:26sbehyes, but with lees power
14:58:26B4gdereven if the linux perhaps need improvements to run perfectly
14:58:29GodEater_when compared to say the Xbox260 ;)
14:58:32GodEater_or 360 even
14:58:49sbehB4gder: NO, ps3 hardware is limitated by hardware when you run in linux-mode!
14:58:57B4gder"linux-mode" ?
14:59:07B4gderafaik, it is "otheros"
14:59:19B4gderso that is limited by design?
14:59:34sbehno, it is activ limited by onboard-firmware
14:59:44LinusNthat sucks

15:20:08amiconnXavierGr: For proper rvf support on H1x0, M5 and greyscale ipods we have to teach the converter tool(s) how to create custom resolutions, framerates, and pixel packings in case of the ipods

15:20:58amiconnCustom framerate is already possible with the cmdline tools, but I think there should be a "target" option that selects sensible parameter defaults for all these

15:23:12GodEater_it seems the limitation with the PS3 is really that it's processor is geared for single precision vector work - and isn't very good for "standard" applications

15:52:19 Part kaaloo
15:52:59barrywardellthe laggyness is apparently due to the lcd driver constantly flushing the cache

15:57:38sbehbarrywardell: thanks
15:58:01GodEater_hmm - you don't get full low level access - the linux OS sits on top of a hypervisor
15:58:21sbehGodEater_: as i said ;)
15:58:26GodEater_you don't get complete access to the disk, and no access to the 3d acceleration
15:58:32sbeh:)
15:58:40barrywardellJdGordon: 6908 seems to be a workaround for the cache flushing I was talking about
15:58:44GodEater_well that's not quite what you said
15:58:44sbehand now u can think of what reasons, hehe
15:59:03B4gderI honestly don't think there's a conspiracy behind it
15:59:04sbehGodEater_: oh, its some time away since i watched the vid :(
15:59:21GodEater_B4gder, nor me - it makes perfect sense to me (if I were Sony)
15:59:26B4gderafter all, they made this box to easily run a 3rd party OS
15:59:53GodEater_B4gder, I'll live with it - it does enough that I don't care. It's a MUCH nicer solution than on the Xbox360
15:59:56sbehno, it was the only way to go to prevent to many people from hacking it
16:00
16:00:17B4gderwhy does it prevent anyone?
16:00:37B4gderI mean, why can't it be hacked as well?
16:00:48markunB4gder: it can, but you don't gain so much
16:00:57B4gdertrue
16:00:59markunso nobody is putting any energy in it
16:01:07sbehit can be hacked, but there are not so much people out who want to
16:01:08markunnot such a bad move from Sony
16:01:12sbehbecause it can already run linux
16:01:17GodEater_it's pretty intelligent really
16:01:17sbehso where is the fun to hack?
16:01:18barrywardellJdGordon: so 6908 only improves audio playback, not the UI?
16:01:25B4gderbut still, if that really was "downgrading" it so much as sbeh claims then I think people will
16:01:26markunsbeh: so basically what I was saying :)
16:01:43sbehmarkun: sry
16:02:13*B4gder gets grumpy when forced in a corner with no mmu
16:02:24JdGordonbarrywardell: I have both compiled.. so I cant actually say how much each affects it... the volume one works great tho
16:02:39mattzzbarrywardell: 6908 improves audio and and fixed the white-screen-bug
16:04:07GodEater_the chances of the PS3 getting hacked further I think are probably higher than with the XBox360 - since they allow you to run your own stuff on the PS3. The exploit in the XBox360's hypervisor would have been much harder to introduce since it would have a required an exploit in someone *else's* code.
16:04:46Webgiestmattzz: but did you notice the screen artifacts , little horizonal lines that last about a second when navigating through the menu and directories?

And then write comment to all browsing funcs (what they return). And then things will become clearer. I tried to to this but my laptop cr

16:34:26Slasheri(why it's needed)
16:34:43Slasherisome kind of sorting?
16:34:56JdGordonthats used to put all threads in a single array, which sounds like it isnt needed anymore...
16:35:08Slasheriah, then i will remove that :)
16:35:11Slasheriit's not needed
16:37:35SlasheriJdGordon: hehe, you should add an ability to kill threads to that screen =)
16:37:55JdGordonI thought about an option to change priority... not to kill them though
16:38:03JdGordonthat sounds like a bad thing....
16:38:09JdGordonsome idiot might try to kill main :)
16:38:11SlasheriJdGordon: hmm, priority change and killing.. that would be nice ;)
16:38:21Slasheriwell, it's debug screen anyway :P
16:38:43perl|work"elephants dream is out of sync again"?
16:40:25JdGordonbarrywardell: well, the scroll wheel sluggishnees isnt completly because of the disk access... I made the wheel light act as a hdd light and its only slightly worse when the disk is on.. and only for a short time...
16:40:52JdGordonuntill we get proper buttons should I try giving the buttons their own thread maybe?

19:59:45barrywardellI think it should be ok, but no harm in checking just to be sure

20:05:55elinenbe_workSlasheri: is the COP as fast as the main processor on the ipod?
20:06:08Slasherielinenbe_work: yes, it should be
20:06:47elinenbe_workSlasheri: that's mostly awesome... considering rockbox runs pretty damn well on the single processor, it should rock on both.
20:06:55Slasheriroolku: btw, i really would like to have that autoscore fixed to not react on stop button (ie. only when playlist really ends)
20:07:10Slasheribecause it's starting to ruin my scores :)
20:07:43elinenbe_workSlasheri: can that help at all in running video or something like rockboy? Also, does the ipod linux project utilize the cop?
20:07:51Slasherielinenbe_work: indeed, it was very speedy when i played audio on cop

20:08:24Slasheriand i have no idea about ipod linux, probably no
20:08:54roolkuSlasheri: do you have a suggestion how? As I really would like to record that I played the track, even if I interrupted it
20:08:56elinenbe_workSlasheri: then how come the video is so slow here: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/PluginMpegplayer
20:09:11elinenbe_workDo we know anything about the video processor?
20:09:31roolkuSlasheri: only solution I see is to have additional run time data
20:09:34elinenbe_workSlasheri: also, does that affect battery life at all?

20:09:49linuxstbelinenbe_work: I assume you're talking about the ipod video?
20:09:55elinenbe_workyes...
20:10:02elinenbe_workwell, ipod v5 and v5.5
20:10:14linuxstbThen read the last sentence of the first paragraph on that page...
20:10:23Slasheriroolku: hmm, i wouldn't if considering the following: you have just finished playing your "last track" and stop playback and shutdown player after the next track starts to listen to later again
20:11:02Slasherinow it also considers that latest track to be played and decreases the overall score for sure
20:11:27Slasherielinenbe_work: atm, shouldn't affect

20:11:49roolkuSlasheri: yes, but this is only one scenario - what about if you don't resume the track
20:12:00bob_brainHow would I encode video files for rockbox on linux?
20:12:15linuxstbbob_brain: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/PluginMpegplayer
20:12:15roolkuSlasheri: ideally we need to detect the resume and not increment playcount if resuming
20:12:25Slasheriroolku: then i don't want it to be played either
20:12:57Slasherii only consider track as "played" when it truly has gone to its end, either by normally ending or skipping
20:13:05Slasheristopping isn't a normal track ending
20:13:25elinenbe_workwell, the progress is great. Good work guys!
20:13:37roolkuSlasheri: I am fairly certain this is not true. I can skip and it will still increase playcount
20:14:12Slasheriroolku: and it should.. skipping is "normal ending"
20:14:19roolkuSlasheri: I had to do this routinely to 'fix' the missed tracks from my 'not yet listened' tracks
20:14:39Slasheriand if you skipped it, you probably didn't like it atm so we can decrease score too
20:14:49roolkuSlasheri: what is the difference between skipping and stopping to select a new track?
20:14:50Slasheribut if you stop a track, there might be other reason for it
20:15:17roolkuSlasheri: well, there might

22:27:05jhMikeSthat must not happen as it is...I suppose I'll calc the exact bit limit...perhaps 25 or 26 is ok
22:27:09preglowsome codecs will need modifying, the only one i know works at 24 bits currently is tremor
22:27:45jhMikeSHow much modification to use interleaved stereo as the standard?
22:28:12preglowdepends on the codec
22:28:32preglowwhy'd you want that, btw? avoid having two pointers?
22:29:08jhMikeSno, the way data will be packeted at the start, it's easier to link a channel out of memory blocks if the audio is interleaved

22:34:38lnxmomoi have tried menu+select then rewind
22:34:41jhMikeSanother problem is then you need different routines for mono and stereo...mega bloat and I'm not sure it would gain anything
22:35:33nlslnxmomo: shut it down by holding the play button the press the play button to start it again and quickly toggle hold
22:35:42jhMikeSeh, just forget all that interleaved stuff :P

22:36:20lnxmomothanx nls
22:37:08preglowjhMikeS: can do! :)
22:37:11jhMikeSAbout the biggest thing to do is have all dsp functions take a single parm so they can be plugged in and a list of calls blindly iterated through. I know you lose some arm advantage there.
22:38:43jhMikeSmaybe not though...most of the data you need in these calls seem to be in memory anyway and not directly in the regparms
22:39:43jhMikeSno, worries...it's my beastie and I'll take care of that horribly boring aspect :)

22:46:45bluebrothersolexx: you didn't update correctly
22:46:50linuxstbrockbox.iriver has moved into the .rockbox folder - you probably have an old bootloader that's only looking in the root directory.
22:47:00linuxstb(or what bluebrother said...)
22:47:14bluebrotheryou need to replace the *complete* build, not only rockbox.<whatever>

23:05:00Soul-SlayerHey everyone, lil problem. On my H10 5GB, using the latest SVN and a newly built bootloader, my H10 keeps freezing up after a few seconds. I've tried with older builds and there's no problem, it's just the latest one.
23:05:44bob_brainSo you have a new bootloader and build?
23:05:51Soul-SlayerYs.
23:05:53Soul-SlayerYes*.
23:05:58bluebrotherthat's the problem
23:06:02bluebrotherupdate the bootloader
23:06:14Soul-SlayerI just did. Just compiled it a moment ago.
23:06:18InsectoidDoes the freeze happen after you do something? Or can you just let it sit at the start screen and it freezes?
23:06:18bob_brainhe has a new one lol
23:06:36***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
23:06:36bob_brainwait do you have a mtp or ums ver?
23:06:40bob_brainversion*
23:07:16Soul-SlayerIt's after trying to do anything that accesses the disk it seems... It freezes up when I try and navigate through the Files menu, and it doesn't even begin to initialise a database, just freezes on 'Found 0 files'
23:07:18bluebrotherwow, the delta-table is quite red :(

23:08:22nlsSoul-Slayer: and you are sure that it works with an older build, not just that it used to work?
23:08:22bob_brainI don't know if this could be the problem but the new bootloaders look for the rockbox.h10 inside the .rockbox folder
23:08:41bob_braindelete the one from the root
23:08:41Soul-SlayerJust to give you some idea, I went (From root folder)...
23:08:41Soul-SlayerMedia -> Music -> (artist name)... And it refuses to navigate any further than this, my H10 has become completely unresponsive.
23:08:54bluebrotherthe current builds have rockbox.h10 in the .rockbox folder
23:08:59bob_brainyes
23:09:01Soul-SlayerYes, I've deleted the rockbox.h10 in the root dir, and I've tried two other older builds and they work fine.
23:09:07bob_brainoh
23:09:16InsectoidThis smells a lot like what's happening with my Ipod.
23:09:36bob_braingive me a second I will give it a try on my H10 though it is mtp version
23:09:40Soul-SlayerAt first I thought there was something up with my hard disk (When I listen to it, I can hear it endlessly spinning but no tell tale clicking that it is actually doing something)
23:09:40nlsSoul-Slayer: how old were the older builds
23:09:49Soul-SlayerBut both the OF and all older build work as expected.
23:09:52bluebrotherwhich bootloader did you install? The one from download.rockbox.org?
23:09:54InsectoidSoul-Slayer: Do you have music queued up that you can resume? Does it let you play? Or does it freeze before it gets to that point.
23:10:07Soul-SlayerI can't get as far as playback.
23:10:14bluebrotherthat still sounds pretty much like a COP issue with the bootloader
23:10:16Soul-SlayerAnd the bootloader I compiled from the latest SVN source.

23:10:44Soul-SlayerI'll copy in playlist control file and see, hold.
23:11:48InsectoidMy silly makefile isn't generating sysfont.h. And things are breaking when everything looks for it.
23:12:38InsectoidIs there any way to force it to/generate it manually?
23:12:41Soul-SlayerIt definitely seems to be a disk issue... Now it's freezing up on the 'Scanning disk...' part, and I can hear the hard disk spinning but not clicking at all.
23:12:43nlsSoul-Slayer: why not install an official bootloader binary, just to rule out your own bootloader being the problem?
23:12:46linuxstbInsectoid: sysfont.h is (I think) the first file generated, so it's normally a symptom of something wrong in your build environment.
23:12:53Soul-SlayerOkay, will do.
23:13:08BagderInsectoid: run 'make V=1' to get more info
23:13:45InsectoidLinuxstb: It compiled fine about ten minutes ago, but then I rechecked svn trunk out, made a new build directory, ran ../tools/configure, and make now doesn't make the sysfont.h
23:14:28Bagderand gsoc #15...
23:14:38linuxstbInsectoid: Did you do a "make clean"?
23:14:49Insectoiddoing so now.
23:15:10InsectoidDidn't think to do that before because it was a totally fresh directory.
23:15:21Soul-SlayerUsing an official bootloader now. Still won't get beyond 'Scanning disk...'
23:15:25bob_brainI can confirm that a bootloader from the current svn seems to not load rockbox on my H10

23:24:11Soul-SlayerBob, try the revision 12915, then we can work out whether it was that or 12926 doing it
23:24:22bob_brainArathis: ah no no
23:24:36Soul-SlayerI'd imagine that people would have noticed earlier had it have been the later though, and wouldn't have continued trying to improve?

23:53:40linuxstb^that should be ../tools/convbdf
23:54:01linuxstbLlorean: And how long was your 320x176 test?
23:54:05InsectoidThank you. Hey... I could have a larger font by default then?
23:54:59linuxstbTry it and let us know... But there are probably lots of places where the size is assumed.
23:55:24Lloreanlinuxstb: 4:50

23:56:05linuxstbLlorean: OK... Sounds about right.
23:56:29linuxstbBTW, your test video wasn't the best to try and debug a/v sync with - there's very little talking...
23:56:32Lloreanlinuxstb: I think it was closer to 4:10 or 4:15 for the 320x240, I just wasn't watching it closely enough to be sure.

23:57:24linuxstbHave you had chance to test the latest a/v sync improvements?
23:57:29Lloreanlinuxstb: Yeah, it wasn't originally intended to be a test video, but the loss of sync was pretty apparent to me in the last bit of dialogue between Smart and 99 at the end.
23:57:33LloreanI'm just about to test them
23:58:16linuxstbThe opening sequence (a voice on a tape-recorder) isn't ideal either...
23:58:26LloreanYeah
23:58:29linuxstb:)
23:58:50LloreanIt was originally just encoded because I wanted to see how suitable TV was for the Nano's screen
