00:28:38stripwaxjust for fun, i'm playing with archos sim build. (i don't even have an archos).
00:29:02stripwaxIf I have a wps containing just %pf, are the leftmost two chars supposed to be blank in sim?
00:29:36stripwaxah - no matter. If I do %pc%pf it works. %pf on its own doesn't

00:38:00Soapcame on the same day as similar news on the Gigabeat S.
00:38:51DerPapstah.
00:39:14Soapboth pieces of news were quite exciting.
00:40:19DerPapstanyways. even if injecting a not encrypted osos is not possible maybe it is possible to inject some code into rsrc.
00:40:44DerPapstwhich could be loaded if this nike thingy is attached
00:42:56Soapor if it thinks the nike thingie is attached?
00:43:13BigBabyJesushmmm...where's the shuffle mode in rockbox?
00:44:00DerPapstanyways... that would require someone with a nano 2G and some pretty good low level programming knowledge. and i don't have both :D
00:44:05stripwaxBigBabyJesus - in the playback settings menu, right?
00:44:59BigBabyJesusbut then it plays single folders even in shufflemode
00:45:30LandusWith shuffle on, it means what when the playlist finishes and reaches the end, it reshuffles the track order.
00:48:16stripwaxBigBabyJesus - sounds like you want to create a playlist first (containing all your music)?
00:48:24BigBabyJesusright
00:48:31linuxstbDerPapst: I read it, but don't think it's very useful... The RSRC image is purely data (afaik), so you can't inject code there.
00:49:25stripwaxBigBabyJesus - fortunately rockbox can do that easily enough

00:50:47 Quit mirak (Remote closed the connection)
00:51:59DerPapstlinuxstb: yeah. i remember now that the rsrc image was just a fat image on the nano. but don't you think that it might work to set the security block to F's and inject some unencrypted code?
00:52:03linuxstbDerPapst: Even if the idea to format the AUPD/OSOS images the same way as the RSRC image enabled us to run our own code (which I think is unlikely - the bootloader will most likely simply reject it), we have no idea how to control the hardware without decrypting either the OSOS or AUPD images.
00:52:38DerPapsttrue
00:53:06DerPapsti thought it would be worth a try. -.-

03:03:30LloreanDomonoky_: I think installing the extras on the Extras page (the ones we officially provide) might be good
03:03:38LloreanThat's "fonts" and the base rockdoom.wad and doomf.wad
03:04:06LloreanBoth of those are just zips that need to be extracted into the root of the device, preserving folders.

03:14:13nikosapiTrust me I know, for the past 3 weeks I've been watching the svn commit log rss feed, and nothing. What sickens me is I know there's probably nothing I can do without some serious C knowledge. But is there at least some work being done? I really am dissatisfied with apple's proprietary firmware.
03:15:36Lloreannikosapi: Don't expect it soon.
03:15:58 Quit BigBabyJesus (Read error: 113 (No route to host))
03:16:05LloreanIt requires a rewrite of Rockbox's FAT32 driver, and so it either requires someone with knowledge of the way ours currently works, or it requires someone new to learn how ours works and rewrite it.
03:16:36LloreanAt the moment, one of our programmers is working on it because he has the appropriate knowledge, but as Rockbox is entirely worked on in volunteer time, it will of course take a second place to "Real Life"
03:19:50nikosapiI completely understand how these open projects work and nor am I fustrated that it's not happening sooner. We're all real people and good software takes real time to develop. I really respect that. For the time being I guess I'll look into ipodlinux but I'll keep watching the commit log ;-)

03:28:12blankyhey what's up guys
03:28:22blankyhey guys anyone here running rockbox ipod edition
03:28:47blankybasically I was just wondering if you put music on it by simply making a folder in the .rockbox directory and putting the music in there
03:28:51aliaskPlenty. Which iPod are you talking about though?
03:28:55blanky4g, sorry
03:29:34aliaskWell, from rockbox, any folder starting with a period is hidden by default - so getting into the .rockbox folder is something you have to enable
03:29:41aliaskSo i wouldn't put my music in there
03:29:49LloreanBut you can put it anywhere else just fine
03:29:50blankyaliask: so put it in the device's root directory?
03:29:55blankymake a folder in the root directory?
03:29:59blankyand put it in there I guess?
03:30:02aliaskWhichever
03:30:15blankyokay cool
03:32:24blankyhey I was wondering if it were possible to make the original firmware boot by default and maek rockbox the second option, so I would have to reboot and switch the hold button on to get into rockbox
03:32:31blankymaybe can be done through ROLO ?
03:32:53aliaskblanky: You'd have to run a modified version of the bootloader to achieve that
03:32:55midgeyyou'd have to edit the code for the bootloader and recompile
03:33:00Lloreanblanky: ROLO is completely different from what you just suggested.
03:33:04blankyoh, nevermind then
03:33:10LloreanBut the bootloader change is basically trivial
03:33:12blankyLlorean: woops, I thought it was the rockbox boot loader haha
03:33:16blankyLlorean: really?
03:33:25blankyLlorean: so I don't have to re-build the boot loader?
03:33:32LloreanYou have to rebuild it
03:33:45LloreanYou can't change it at all without re-compiling it.
03:33:53blankyoh okay
03:33:57midgeyRoLo stands for Rockbox Loader and is not related to the bootloader
03:34:03blankyoh woops :(
03:34:06midgeyit allows you to load a new version of rockbox
03:34:11blankyokay
03:34:16midgeyand o some targets, the original firmware
03:34:21midgeys/o/on
03:34:36blankyI guess I'll just keep it like this then
03:34:38blankythanks
03:34:41blankyoh by the way
03:34:41midgey(without rebooting)
03:34:44blankythat was another question
03:34:53blankyis it possible to build things for rockbox?
03:35:01blankywhat compiler would I need? are there docs on this?
03:35:51aliaskhttp://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/CrossCompiler
03:35:58Lloreanblanky: See the SimpleGuideToCompiling wiki page as well
03:36:06blankysweet thanks
03:42:24blankyhey guys
03:42:50blankyif I'm not really looking to re-compile my own rockbox, I'm looking to build 'rock files' (If that's even possible), or 'extensions' or programs, is that possible?
03:43:33blankynevermind I found it
03:43:34blankysorry haha

03:54:33RockBox_Newbhi
03:54:42RockBox_Newbhi
03:54:43LloreanRockBox_Newb: Please don't repeat yourself.
03:54:53RockBox_Newbcan someone help me?
03:55:05LloreanDepends on the question, of course
03:55:14RockBox_Newbwhat happened to my iTunes Library?
03:55:23LloreanI don't know. Did you do something to it?
03:55:28RockBox_NewbI can't access it from RockBox
03:55:30LloreanInstalling Rockbox doesn't touch it in any way.
03:55:49LloreanBut iTunes hides it on the disk normally, so you should use the Rockbox "database" feature to index it.
03:56:15RockBox_NewbI can't access any of my songs in Rockbox
03:56:30LloreanWhat do you mean by "can't access"
03:56:40RockBox_NewbI know
03:56:41LloreanDo you mean "I don't know where they are?" or "They don't play when I try to play one"
03:56:42RockBox_NewbI mean
03:57:10RockBox_NewbHow can I play music from my iPod's database
03:57:19RockBox_NewbI like the drag and drop feature
03:57:36RockBox_NewbBut all my music is in the iPod's database
03:57:36LloreanWell if you use the drag and drop feature, you just browse to the song, wherever you put it, and click on it.
03:57:54RockBox_NewbSorry my internet is really slow
03:58:00LloreanBut songs put on with iTunes will be hidden.
03:58:05aliaskRockBox_Newb: If you want to use the database feature you need to enable it so that it scans the harddrive
03:58:06LloreanLike I said earlier, you need to use Database for those
03:58:15RockBox_NewbI know
03:58:27aliaskThen what is your question?
03:58:28RockBox_NewbBut how can I play music from the iPod database
03:58:36LloreanUse the Database feature.
03:58:36RockBox_NewbYeah
03:58:41LloreanTry looking in the manual under "Database"
03:58:45RockBox_Newbok
03:58:54RockBox_Newbno sorry
03:58:54aliaskThe rockbox database will scan the files from the iTunes database

03:59:33aliaskWhat has changed in the last couple of days or so that has bought such an influx of people like this?
04:00
04:00:07Soapmovies
04:00:10LloreanYep
04:00:12Lloreanmpegplayer works
04:00:13Soapimho
04:00:21Llorean"OMG movies on my <insert player here>!!!"
04:00:29CtcpIgnored 1 channel CTCP requests in 0 seconds at the last flood
04:00:29*aliask blames linuxstb :P
04:00:33Soapthough, honestly, I haven't seen a particularly large bump.
04:00:52LloreanOnce I'm done telling people "Your file plays in perfect sync on my one" I'm probably hardly ever going to use the video feature again.
04:01:22lachlan_It IS cool to have though
04:01:30LloreanSoap: The bump itself isn't particularly large, it's that one guy who got himself indirectly called an idiot in yesterday's log making it seem so much worse.
04:01:47 Quit midgey ()
04:02:19Soaphours and hours of that.
04:02:31LloreanYeah
04:02:37LloreanI'd already talked to that guy at least twice
04:02:45SoapI swear there was a lot of troll in him. People responded very well to him until the end.
04:03:10LloreanThe problem is, he's one of those people who steadfastly believes that support should be provided by humans, not a manual
04:03:14SoapThey answered early on, ignored him when it got silly, then things only broke down in the third act.
04:03:17LloreanHe just doesn't have the time to read it.
04:03:22LloreanAccording to him
04:03:32Soapthat's a good line ^^
04:03:46LloreanHe's not trying to be a troll, I think, his attitude about reading the manual just causes him to reproduce troll-like behaviour unintentionally
04:03:55LloreanBasically not malicious, just clueless
04:04:48*Llorean wonders if Google has told us how many we get yet, and I've just missed it.
04:04:54LloreanThey only have like 3 hours left until today's over.
04:05:33Soap"We (Rockbox) and you have very different philosophies. You believe support should be human, we believe manuals are an efficient replacement for human support, though we are happy to suplement them if it is shown they are lacking. We obviously don't see eye-to-eye and suggest you either A-accept our lovely manual or B - accept our ignoring of you, not as an insult but as us carrying on our lives, and understand we will never agree.
04:05:49JdGordonLlorean: isnt he deadline the 11th?
04:06:20LloreanJdGordon: The final announcement of which projects are accepted is the 11th
04:06:29LloreanThat's when we have to have our decisions done by
04:06:30JdGordonah
04:06:43LloreanWe get "at least a week" meaning "we find out on the 4th" and Google even stated that they'd tell us by the 4th.
04:06:50LloreanAt least, last I checked, that was the case.
04:06:59LloreanAnd the 4th ends in their timezone in 5 hours
04:07:12*Llorean was looking at the wrong clock when he said 3.
04:07:24JdGordonmaybe Bagder got an email and hasnt passed it on yet?
04:07:54aliaskHas anybody contacted people at the Audacious, Tomasz Mon has applied to two projects...
04:08:09Lloreanaliask: You're allowed to apply to as many as you'd like
04:08:13LloreanYou can only be accepted for one, though
04:08:31aliask"You may still assign a mentor to this application, but please contact the other organizations involved first, since a student can not be accepted for more than one organization. "
04:09:14Lloreanaliask: Once we know how many we get, we can contact Audacious
04:09:23aliaskAh yes, fair point.
04:09:31LloreanIt's entirely possible that either they or us won't have enough projects allowed for it to matter.
04:09:59LloreanJdGordon: If there were an email, I think it would go to all three people listed as project administrators, and in that case, I imagine we'd have heard about it.
04:10:14SoapLlorean: may I assume the Gigabeat manual is up-to-date with the latest gigabeat bootloader?
04:11:20LloreanSoap: I believe so, yes.
04:11:20JdGordonLlorean: whos the three? if they are all asleep i dont see why its unreasonable for us to not have heard yet
04:11:28JdGordon.... or we got 0 projects :p
04:11:30LloreanJdGordon: One of them is talking to you right now. :-P
04:11:38JdGordonah ok :)
04:12:57Soapso there is a good chance we got none?
04:13:17LloreanI think one or two of our applicants has special conditions (isn't 100% sure they're free this summer, or is applied to other projects) so we need to start contacting people to verify within a day or two after we find out, IMHO
04:13:25LloreanSoap: No, I think at a minimum we'll get 4
04:13:33Soapwoo hoo
04:13:52LloreanThere's 800 acceptances divided among 132 projects, so using that we should expect 6
04:14:05LloreanAnd we've requested 8 (I think mostly so that we're likely to get at least 6, honestly)
04:14:33LloreanThere's a lot of exciting stuff in the list, unfortunately
04:15:20SoapI know, that Zune-Linux entry is smokin'
04:15:32JdGordonexciting astuff on which list?
04:16:15LloreanJdGordon: The list of applications for SoC?
04:16:26JdGordonah, yes
04:17:54aliaskI can't wait for the shopping list feature. :D
04:18:01JdGordoncrap, I hate bugs which only appear on target and not in the sim :'(
04:19:00LloreanJdGordon: They made the sim more tolerant of errors just to spite you. :-P
04:19:18JdGordonthat would be bloody right!
04:21:35JdGordontrying to fix 6965.. and the bookmark crash doesnt happen in the sim :( it shuold either fail in both or niether....
04:22:50blankyhey I looked through the settings but it seemed like this wasn't possible, wanted to doule check, I can't make the backlight behavior on rockbox ipod 4g like the original firmware's? Such that I hold the menu button down and it turns it on? How it is right now is that I just touch the wheel and it turns on, this is cool but I have a feeling it's wasting a lot of battery power
04:23:21Lloreanblanky: Yes, you can't make it toggle-able right now.
04:23:32blankyalright, thanks Llorean I appreciate the help
04:24:08blankyalso, I doubt it'd be possible to integrate the normal style of scrolling through a song right? Where you press the select button and then scroll to go to a different place in the song? It's alright just want to make sure I didn't miss anything
04:24:25Lloreanblanky: That is not an option either.
04:24:29blankyalright, thanks Llorean
04:24:38blankyI'll be seeing you guys later, rockbox looks very promising!

04:45:53Lloreanvoltagex: No.

04:46:15voltagexLlorean: just using RBUtil to grab latest
04:46:32Soapany themes not needing patches which break should be reported to Nico_P
04:47:09lachlan_pearldiver: I noticed that as well before when I went on eBay
04:47:25*voltagex loves RBUtil
04:47:28Nico_Pvery true. in here one in the forum thread
04:47:33JdGordongrr.... found my damn bug
04:47:34pearldiverlachlan_ a month ago there was plenty
04:47:46JdGordonI had #ifdef CONFIG_TUNER instead of #if :'(
04:47:57lachlan_But they couldn't all have been snapped up immediately, the hack was only announced a few hours ago
04:48:10voltagexwhich hack?
04:48:23Nico_Ppearldiver: yes, most patch are probably completely broken. I'll fix the ones I like best :)
04:48:37voltagexI want even more themes
04:48:45voltagexI haveall the themes that RBUtil can install
04:48:48LloreanNico_P: Take your time, I'm going to enjoy watching people complain to the unsupported builds authors. :-P
04:48:57JdGordonhaha
04:49:23Nico_PLlorean: I think I will too. but that could lead to even more outdated builds.
04:49:32LloreanYeah, I know
04:49:35pearldivervoltagex there was some nice progress today about gigabeat S, zune and nado 2g
04:49:37Nico_PWe need the killer feature soon
04:49:39voltagexso, what does this new WPS stuff do?
04:49:42lachlan_voltagex: look in the new ports forum in the gigabeat s30 thread- someone has (supposedly) managed to get past the firmware encryption
04:49:42pearldivernano*
04:49:50LloreanNico_P: We should've held video back for a couple weeks until now
04:49:51voltagexRB on Zune?
04:50:07lachlan_no, only s series
04:50:07pearldivervoltagex not about rockbox yet, about hacking the devices in general
04:50:16voltagexrockbox killer feature = doom + gameboy
04:50:18Nico_Pvoltagex: basically, it does the same thing but differently. You shouldn't see anything different. If you do, please report it
04:50:33voltagexaww
04:50:35safetydanvoltagex, the new WPS stuff makes the code substantially easier to read and maintain.
04:50:40voltagexI was hoping for something cool
04:50:47safetydanShould make it easier for people to patch it as well
04:50:55voltagexbut yeah I do enough coding to know that's good
04:50:58Nico_Pvoltagex: cool things will be made easier by the new code
04:51:10voltagexhas anything been done on the gameboy emulator in the last 2 years?
04:51:22Lloreanvoltagex: Well, it was written...
04:51:39voltagexunfortunately my h340 isn't fast enough for it

04:51:56pearldiverif you see the most right one anywhere let me know please :P
04:52:05LloreanWell, I guess it was 2 years and 1 month ago
04:52:34JdGordonthe h300 is fine for rockboy
04:52:39lachlan_pearldiver: Haha I will keep it in mind. Don't generally see many red ones though
04:52:41JdGordonif you can handle frameskip on max...
04:52:47voltagexsooner gigabeats come down in price the better
04:52:54voltagexJdGordon: exactly
04:53:04*JdGordon can handle it..
04:53:21lachlan_voltagex: I daresay RB will make them more expensive. All about the supply and demand
04:53:25*Llorean would use his Nano for Rockboy if it didn't have battery concerns.
04:53:25pearldivervoltagex its not about the price anymore, its just not many of them are left in the wild in general
04:53:45voltagexwell I'll be looking for a new mp3 player soon
04:54:07voltagexbut it's looking like I'll just get a smartphone and a whole lot of memory cards ><
04:54:12JdGordonNico_P: the bin increase for the wps stuff isnt as bad as you thought yeah?
04:54:51Nico_PJdGordon: it's not too bad but still bad enough for me to feel a bit ashamed :)

04:55:51voltagexis it just me or is shutdown a lot faster in this build?
04:56:43JdGordonNico_P: according to the delta table it is.. unless there are more tags..
04:56:49*JdGordon wonders why they are so huge?
04:57:19Nico_PJdGordon: RTC adds a lot of tokens
04:57:35pearldiverhas the wps creation process undergone some changes too?
04:57:59JdGordonNico_P: bloody hell :p it sure does
04:58:03Nico_Ppearldiver: there should be no big changes. maybe a few subtelties are diffenrent
05:00
05:00:31pearldiverbtw, old bug i just remembered about
05:00:48pearldiverif you have "pause on headphones unplug" option on
05:01:09voltagexo.O that option doesn;t exist on H300 does it?
05:01:25pearldiverturn on the player with headphones unplugged, plug the headphones and try to resume the playback
05:01:31pearldiverit hangs the player
05:02:06pearldiver(gigabeat target)
05:02:25JdGordonpearldiver: is there a FS task for that bug?
05:02:45SoapLlorean: does your nano have an old battery?
05:03:00pearldiverJdGordon not that i recall of
05:03:11JdGordonadd it.. :)
05:03:12pearldiveri checked awhile ago though
05:03:21Nico_PJdGordon: in my gigabeat build, replacing #if CONFIG_RTC by #if 0 took 1692 bytes off the binary
05:04:25JdGordonhmm
05:04:44Nico_PI think I know where to look for optimisation :)
05:04:55***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
05:06:16JdGordonah, you didnt get rid of that next variable in the wps_token struct...
05:06:29JdGordonnot so easy to tag that onto the enum?

05:47:55dberg918oh, a new version of cygwin?
05:48:04JdGordonno.. gcc...
05:48:06LandusSo, I just synced with the current SVN and loaded it on to my DAP. What happened to the menu?
05:48:22JdGordonscrap cygwin and get colinux or vmware
05:48:43dberg918I've tried vmware and it was a pain in my butt
05:49:05dberg918cygwin might be slow and rustic, but it actually works for me
05:49:17aliaskLandus: It got reworked, as you may have noticed.
05:49:34aliaskIs it a problem?
05:49:39dberg918so gcc...I don't even know what that is
05:49:51LandusUntil I have time to get used to it, slightly.

05:50:07blankyI feel obliged to print the manual haha
05:50:16blankyI've just been using rockbox for 2 hours or so and I'm in love with it
05:50:19LandusjBlackGlass isn't working with it, but that's probably because I forgot to reload the fonts.
05:50:27LandusI've been using it for almost a year.
05:50:29blankymainly because of it's 'dual boot-ness'
05:50:56aliaskLandus: jBlackGlass doesn't have anything to do with the Menus does it?
05:51:10LandusIn a way.
05:51:14LandusIt had a certain font.
05:51:27LandusAnd I'm probably getting all freaked out because I forgot to copy them over.

05:52:50LandusYay.
05:53:13Aloneaok, rockbox would not compile and I am no expert on C, but on one off the lines its talking about, it looks odd to me
05:53:26Alonea bool show_sb_on_wps;
05:53:27Alonea<<<<<<< .mine
05:53:52Aloneathe bottom line is the one it doesn't like and I also put the one before it.
05:54:02LandusDid you apply any patches?
05:54:07dberg918JdGordon, sorry to keep bothering you, but I need a little help with GCC...looks like I found the binary I need, but I don't know how to use it
05:54:24dberg918...or install it, rather
05:54:45AloneaLandus: ages ago, but I want to see if I can fix whats wrong. Its saying syntax errors too.
05:55:07JdGordonI dont know how to get it working... I suggest grabbing the colinux or vmware images whic are both up to date
05:55:08LandusIf any of the patches had any failed hunks, that probably why your having compiling problems.
05:55:25AloneaLandus: no. no failed hunks in patches
05:55:43LandusHmm.
05:55:48JdGordonAlonea: you did a svn up?
05:55:52dberg918do you have to be running Linux to use colinux?
05:55:52Aloneai just dont know what <<<<<<<< that does in code?
05:56:00LandusGordon beat me to the question.
05:56:13JdGordondberg918: no, both are for getting linux working under windows
05:56:21AloneaJdGordon: yeah. it was working fine yesterday but I re updated today and its not compiling.
05:56:36JdGordonAlonea: that measn your local code has comfliscting changes with svn
05:56:43JdGordonwhich means you proabbaly are using the AA patcjh
05:56:50dberg918JdGordon: so they're pretty much the same?
05:56:52AloneaJdGordon: album art? yeah.
05:57:14JdGordonyup.. your stuffed then... you cant use AA with current svn untill its resynced
05:57:18JdGordondberg918: yep
05:57:43AloneaJdGordon: hmmm, how have they been fixing it before?
05:57:49dberg918ugh...I guess I'll have to look into it
05:58:30JdGordonthey anvt needed to... before it worked.. but now the code it changes was changed
06:00
06:00:11Alonea>>>>>>> .r13027 and the other one actually mean?
06:02:23dberg918how do I use an older svn source with vmware or colinux? All I remember is being able to download the latest version
06:02:49JdGordonsvn co −−revision 13000 or something like that iirc
06:02:58Aloneadberg918: dont you put a date in the svn thing when you download the source? I saw it on the wiki...
06:03:35JdGordonLlorean: I thought everyone was against using inline settings? the song rating uses it instead of the standrard number setting screen?
06:03:36dberg918is it in the wiki somewhere? I'll check it out. I just remember using a guide that tells you how to get the latest svn
06:04:30LloreanJdGordon: I really don't know. It could be a case of nobody noticing yet, really?
06:04:32Aloneadberg918: yeah and under it it also says you can also download the code from a specific date
06:04:37Aloneadberg918: I did it the other day
06:05:00dberg918ahhh, I see it, cool
06:10:08Aloneareally, I am just curious as to what is actually breaking the aa patch and what this "resyncing" means. Trying to learn more about the code.

07:39:34LandusRight.
07:39:41LloreanAnd yet your very statement was that it doesn't display on an SVN build, and assuming you used the standard definition of "An SVN build" that suggests that it was unpatched...
07:41:35LandusMy mistake. I always throw on the margins and statusbar height patch out of habit now.

07:42:02LandusIt slipped my mind to mention it.
07:42:07LloreanThen what you're having problems with is not an SVN build.
07:42:12LloreanAnd you should take it to the patch authors
07:43:40LandusI never said I had problems with the SVN build.
07:43:58LloreanYou said "SVN Release"
07:44:18Llorean06.39.09 # <Landus> The jBlackGlass WPS is lining up the way its supposed to be in the latest SVN release.
07:44:30LandusI know what I said. They both refer to the same thing.
07:45:13*Llorean shrugs
07:45:14LandusI was figuring if anyone here had already had this problem and found a solution, someone would pipe up.
07:45:32LloreanYou said you had problems with an SVN Release
07:45:35LandusIf not, I was going to email Julius.
07:45:37LloreanThen you said just now that you never said it.
07:46:11LandusWrong. I said I was using the latest SVN release.
07:46:17LandusNot that I was having problems with it.
07:46:35LloreanYou said that something didn't work with it.
07:46:48LloreanSpecifically, the theme you were trying to use.
07:46:51LandusRockbox isn't suppose to conform to patches and themes, therefore, it can't be the firmware's fault.
07:47:06LloreanSo, you said "Something that isn't supposed to work, doesn't work."
07:47:14LloreanIf you KNEW it wasn't supposed to work, before you said it, why even bother?
07:47:45LandusBack to what I said about if anyone had already run into this problem, I was figuring someone would talk.
07:47:55LloreanI thought you said it wasn't a problem.
07:48:02Llorean(12:46:11 AM) Landus: Not that I was having problems with it.
07:48:05LloreanIs it a problem, or not?
07:48:13LandusNot with the firmware, no.
07:48:29LandusThat's where you're having a problem comprehending what I say.
07:48:37LloreanWell this is #Rockbox
07:48:41LloreanNot #Julius'Themes
07:48:54LandusNor is this #English.
07:48:57LloreanA theme not supported by Rockbox doesn't work with Rockbox. All I can say is "Yes, this is how it's supposed to be."
07:49:13LandusI don't have a problem with you, but either I've done something to bother you, or you're just in a bad mood.
07:49:49LloreanYou're asking for help with unsupported features.
07:49:58LandusI made a statement.
07:50:11LloreanWith the intent that someone might have had the problem, and respond, as you said.
07:50:17LandusI expected if someone had anything relating to what I said, someone would pipe up.
07:50:27LloreanBut my point is: Don't ask about unsupported features here.
07:50:37LloreanJust contact the author of said feature or WPS.

08:29:38LloreanBut first, reboot your iPod, and press and hold "Right" at the apple screen
08:30:04pondlifeI'm coming to the conclusion that bookmark handling in playback.c is pretty screwed... :(
08:30:39JdGordonpondlife: the problem was the because ifdef was used #instead of #if, it was crashing because it was trying to run the function at 0x0...
08:30:52pondlifeAha, so root_menu, not playback?
08:30:53tunaLlorean: I can't reboot it! it's stuck in the apple logo screen!
08:30:54JdGordonbookmark handling is horrid imo, but this wasnt a bookmark bug
08:31:11*pondlife will carry on looking at the other bookmark bugs then
08:31:42JdGordon:)
08:32:24pondlifeDon't expect much improvement :(

08:40:27LloreanReboot, then hold right.
08:40:42LloreanAt least, I believe "Right" is the button to make the bootloader show text on the iPods
08:41:37tunaits flashing a little, but no text
08:41:55voltagexI'm probably going to be on the binrev.com podcast talking about Rockbo

08:42:20Lloreantuna: Unfortunately I don't know what the trick is to make it output text right now then. I thought it was Right
08:42:40Lloreantuna: But you need to make sure that you have X:\.rockbox\ with X:\.rockbox\rockbox.ipod in it.
08:42:45LloreanWhere X is your iPod's drive letter.
08:42:56amiconnmo0ning
08:43:02LloreanThere should be many other files too, but those are the absolute minimum for Rockbox to boot, the rest are required for more advance things such as playing music.
08:43:11tunawell for me it would be /media/ipod/.rockbox
08:43:38LloreanYes, yes, abstract it for your operating system of choice as necessary. :-P
08:43:48bluebrotherLlorean: it is "Right" to show the bootloader output −− just tried it.

08:47:51LloreanI don't have one to test with, so I can't really tell you exactly
08:48:13Lloreantuna: I said clearly "Reboot, then hold right."
08:48:33LloreanI'm fairly certain it's got to be pressed after the Rockbox bootloader takes over.
08:48:41bluebrothertuna: press Right when the apple logo appears
08:48:45*Llorean isn't 100% certain on this one, and again notes he has nothing to play with.
08:48:47tunaok
08:49:28*tuna appreciates Llorean's patience and willingness to help Tuna even though he's an idiot
08:49:43bluebrotherbtw −− is there a key to delay booting when showing the output?
08:49:56Lloreanbluebrother: I don't believe so.
08:50:05LloreanThe assumption being that you only need the output when something has gone wrong.
08:51:36tunaok, the right button thing isn't working
08:51:39tuna:/
08:53:38tunawell what are the possible problems?
08:54:33LloreanThe most likely is that your rockbox.ipod is corrupt for whatever reason (didn't eject properly is the single most common one)
08:54:49LloreanSince we've established that the file appears to be in the right place (not having it there is more common, but we seem to have eliminated that)
08:55:11LloreanThe next problem down the list is "accidentally downloaded the iPod 4G or Photo build instead of the Video build" or something similar
08:55:35LloreanBelow that is "Your bootloader isn't working for some reason" but I haven't actually seen that happen outside of someone using the manual install process and messing it up entirely.
08:57:39tunaok, so the solution would be to re-DL RockBox, and make sure it's the video version?
08:58:29ptw419one step closer to rockbox on gigabeat S
08:58:37LloreanThat would address everything but the bootloader concern, yes.

09:20:06tunaeh, it probly needs a charge anyway
09:20:12dionoeawhich can't be bypassed by plugins
09:20:15tunaoh
09:20:33dionoeaunless you change the shutdown key in the rockbox code :)
09:20:47cropHmm... Nobody here (yet) to discuss the wps tokenizer...
09:20:50tunathere's always a hack-a-round
09:21:20dionoeasomepeople change the shutdown key to a combo, which makes it less likely that they trigger it without wanting to
09:21:29dionoea(since you have to keep it pressed for 10 secs)
09:21:32tunawell, its a good chance to put on some pirated-er-legally acquired music on :D
09:22:29tunahow do i make it a combo?
09:22:48dionoeadid you compile rockbox yourself ?

10:26:02nebudkhi, i have been searching the forums regarding at problem i have with my battery indictor
10:26:28nebudki have a h320 with a 2200 battery in it
10:27:27nebudkthe indicator shows about 4/5 full when fully recharged but when looking in rockbox info it says 100%
10:27:53nebudkI have set the battery capacity to 2200 in rockbox
10:27:55bluebrotheris this with the charger connected or not?
10:28:06nebudkanyone have a view on this?
10:28:10Genre9mp3nebudk: You mean the indicator in the wps, right?
10:28:14bluebrotherthe battery capacity setting doesn't affect this −− it's only used for the remaining runtime estimation.
10:28:32nebudkok
10:28:41pondlifeWhat does the battery indicator say on the menu screen status bar?
10:28:46Genre9mp3nebudk: It's probably the wps fault, what wps do you use?
10:29:01 Quit Zagor ("Leaving")
10:29:55nebudkon the menu screen its not full charged either
10:30:29JdGordonpondlife: what are you scrapping?
10:30:39pondlifeNothing
10:30:45nebudkim sorry "scrapping"?
10:30:48pondlifeI'm just really annoyed by the buffering code
10:31:36nebudkwhen you ask about the wps do you mean what Theme Im using?
10:31:43pondlifeThere are two many hacks-upon-hacks as far as I can tell... either that or the comments are insufficient for me to grasp any of it.
10:31:44JdGordonyour certainylt not alone :D
10:31:58*JdGordon suspects both
10:32:11JdGordonthe rockbox code in general isnt commented nearly enough
10:32:23Genre9mp3nebudk: Yes, what theme do you use
10:32:33pondlifeWhy do we need routines named audio_rebuffer() AND audio_rebuffer_with_seek() ... that have very different results...
10:33:06JdGordonI can guess what _with_seek() does.. but what does the first do?
10:33:11nebudkhang on
10:33:40pondlifeI don't really know... I wouldn't attempt to guess from the routine name!!
10:33:47JdGordon:)
10:34:09pondlifeStarting playback from an offset (i.e bookmark) during playback is completely knackered in SVN.

10:35:24JdGordonpondlife: i've been thinking about converting the bookmarks to just use the playlist resume info at the time and reload that.. but havnt worked out ow best to do it
10:35:26pondlifeI wish there was a buffer management API that could be given a list of files to buffer and just abstracted the whole thing in some way.
10:35:32 Quit inversions (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))

10:35:38Genre9mp3I'm currently charging the Gigabeat :)
10:35:39pondlifeYes
10:35:51nebudkso its not my new battery but the themes that are problem
10:35:59pondlifeThey are using the same thing..
10:36:11pondlifebut you can only resume from a stopped state
10:36:17pondlife(in which case bookmarks work)
10:36:28pondlifeI have crossfading enabled, if that matters.
10:37:01Genre9mp3nebudk: As I said, it appears to be theme's fault.. I'm currently searching the wps you use
10:37:10*JdGordon is in the scrap-and-restart buffering/playback engines camp
10:37:22pondlifeWould a more generic buffering API be good for video, codecs, whatever (as well as simplifying playback.c loads)?
10:37:22nebudkthank you
10:37:49pondlifeIt just needs to manage audio_buffer in a way that works with the codecs...
10:37:55bluebrotherguess so
10:37:59JdGordonpondlife: probably....
10:38:09pondlifeThat would be a good thing to work on (hint)
10:38:29JdGordonwe need some discussion of how the current buffering/playback engines work.. and how they should work (and be as split as possible)
10:38:37JdGordonand then start from scratch
10:39:07JdGordonmalloc!!! we want freeking malloc!
10:39:11Genre9mp3nebudk: Aha,... I found it on MisticRiver... it's a really old wps
10:39:38pondlifeThere would still need to be a track list handled by playback (or maybe playlist), above the buffering layer. To keep track of metadata or whatever, but the actual buffer would only be accessed via some kind of handle (i.e buffer slot). And the ring buffering stuff would be entirely hidden (for what it's worth).
10:39:42cropHe-he. It's now clear why Nico_P is still not here. He left at 05:11. =:-O
10:39:48nebudkit is the themes, when i use Icatcher its fine
10:39:57*petur smacks JdGordon with a large memoryleak
10:39:58*bluebrother goes after his no-malloc arguments
10:40:18pondlifeNo malloc needed
10:40:26JdGordonwell, once you get a decent buffer manangemtn api in.. your almost there, but in a different name
10:40:27*bluebrother hands JdGordon the malloc mess he had in his current uni work
10:40:30Genre9mp3nebudk: You have to change the code in that wps if you want it to show the battery right
10:40:31pondlifeNope
10:40:42nebudkallright
10:41:02nebudkdo i need to be an astronaut to do that? :)
10:41:06pondlifeThe buffer is very limited in what it can be used for still. Basically a window into a file.
10:41:17 Join Zagor [0] (n=bjst@rockbox/developer/Zagor)
10:41:32Genre9mp3nebudk: of course not... you just need a text editor
10:42:02JdGordonbuffering should be moved to firmware/ with a very strict api, playlist should handle all aspects of the current list, playback should handle making sure the corect file is in the buffer and being played (imo)
10:42:04nebudkok i got that
10:42:07pondlifeNo need for much more. We can have a limited number of slots in there too - should be a simplification and not use more memory overall.
10:42:17pondlifeJdGordon: Yep
10:42:26JdGordonliimited slots is te current 32 track limitation...
10:42:27bluebrotherbuffering is not direct hardware access
10:42:47pondlifeAh, well maybe not in firmware, but I agree with the rest.
10:42:54bluebrotherI don't think it belongs to firmware/ −− better split up apps/ into gui/ and kernel/
10:43:12pondlifeIt can just live in apps for now!!
10:43:25JdGordonwell, in firmware it limits the amount of hacks that people can add ot it
10:44:01bluebrotherapps/ already has stuff that isn't well suited there
10:44:10pondlifeStart by defining the requirements and interfaces... must work with the existing codecs, so maybe look atr
10:44:20pondlife... buf_ridx for starters
10:44:42JdGordondo we know how the codecs currently work?
10:44:58pondlifeYes, the have callbacks into playback.c...
10:45:47Genre9mp3nebudk: You'll find this code: "%?bl<%xdl|%xdm|%xdn|%xdo|%xdp>>" in that wps in the 36th line, 5 times... all you need to do is change it to: "%?bl<%xdl|%xdl|%xdm|%xdn|%xdo|%xdp>>"
10:45:54pondlifeTake a look at codec_request_buffer_callback(), codec_seek_buffer_callback() etc..
10:46:07nebudkok thanks
10:46:28 Quit anathema (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
10:46:28pondlifeIn fact look at where track_ridx is used... that will be basically your interface to the codecs.
10:46:35*Genre9mp3 tries to spend time while his Gigabeat is charging! :)
10:46:48nebudkis it line 36 in all themes that has to be changed like this or is it different from theme to theme?
10:46:51pondlifeProbably just need a way to say "read n bytes from file x offset o"
10:47:15Genre9mp3nebudk: only on that theme
10:47:17pondlifeAnd then be clever enough to get files buffered before their data is needed.
10:47:25nebudkok
10:47:27pondlifea predictive cache.
10:47:39nebudktrying it now
10:47:41JdGordonand clever enough to not chuck out data which can be reused... i.e repeating tracks
10:48:12pondlifeWell, that can come later if the API is suitable. Start by getting it to work as well as it does now
10:48:28pondlifeCrawl, then walk, then run.
10:48:41bluebrotherrun, then fall ;-)

10:49:51JdGordonI think we should figure out the interfaces for the 3 modules first.. then start figuring out how to implement
10:49:58pondlifeYes
10:50:09pondlifeThink modular
10:50:10JdGordonwith buffering the first to work out
10:50:54pondlifeThis will make MoB easier too, no-one wants to muck about with the current playback buffering code. It takes days just to do the simplest mods.

10:51:37JdGordonim sure he does
10:52:16pondlifeTo be clear - this is not the same thing as MoB but it surely would make it more friendly for him.
10:52:32pondlifei.e Metadata remains in the track structures for now
10:52:37JdGordonimo there shouldnt be any discussion about redoing the buffering wthout considering MoB
10:53:03pondlifeIf the buffering API is generic enough (i.e. file-based) it shouldn't matter too much.
10:53:27JdGordonnot even file based... unsigned char array based...
10:53:32pondlifeMay need some tweaking (e.g. to ensure the next track info is available) but that can come later.
10:53:46pondlifeI meant the API to be file based.
10:54:00bluebrotherwtf? MSVC can't use snprintf?
10:54:06pondlifei.e. playback says "I want this offset from file x"
10:54:19pondlifebluebrother: It can.
10:54:43bluebrotherI know ... just looked up the header file. But linking fails :o
10:54:49pondlifeJdGordon: I don't think the API should be pointer/offset based...
10:55:02pondlifebluebrother: Hmm, I've used it recently (VS6)..
10:55:04bluebrotherthe same code works fine on linux
10:55:29nebudkim not finding that line exactly
10:55:58bluebrotherchanging snprintf to _snprintf and it can link it. Really strange.
10:56:06pondlifeJdGordon: Bear in mind gapless playback too - not sure how the MASCODEC will impact on this, but I'd bet it does.
10:56:09markunGenre9mp3: great you finally got your Gigabeat!
10:56:37JdGordonpondlife: doesnt gapless work by buffering the actuall pcm into a seperate buffer and not rebuffering between tracks?
10:56:50pondlifeHopefully. But not sure about MASCODEC.
10:56:59JdGordonMAS/SW CODEC conversion is another thing that we want to achieve
10:57:14scorcheaye...playback unification
10:57:35scorchewould make thing a bit easier for the AV300s too
10:57:36*JdGordon has an idea but is scared of buffer fragmentation
10:57:38pondlifeIf you can keep the bufapi (TM) generic enough then all this should be helpful, even where playback.c isn't used...

13:04:02cropI'd reorganise the wps_data struct.
13:04:24crop1. make progress_xxx vars unsigned
13:05:06***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
13:05:15crop2. intriduce struct subline with the fields start_token_idx, possibly num_tokens, line_type, and time_mult
13:06:04cropIntroduce struct line with the fields start_subline_idx, possibly num_sublines, subl_expire_time, and curr_subline
13:07:12cropThe idea is that all sublines are stored in one array and the fields point to that array. Now it's assumed that each line can have up to 12 sublines which is rarely the case I'd argue and this wastes space

13:10:09cropAnd one more thing: why do we need tokens for NOP and EOL? Why not just store the tokens that belong to the subline? In my proposal, start_subline_idx would say where the subline starts (index in the tokens array). The num_tokens isn't strictly needed since a subline ends where the next begins. The same idea applies to lines.
13:10:58cropThis would simplify the drawing code since you have clear bounds and don't have to watch out if we've reached EOL. This should be done at parsing time IMHO

13:12:37amiconnsafetydan: One thing is the padding. Another thing that helps especially on SH1 is putting the most frequently accessed members first (in the order bytes -> words->longwords), because SH asm can encode small offsets directly within the instruction
13:13:07amiconn(up to +15 for bytes, +30 for words and +60 for longwords)
13:13:14cropMAX_SUBLINES could be defined as MAX_LINES * 2 (or *3). This will be less space and at the same time allow for more that 12 sublines per line (if needed)

13:36:47linuxstbIt's a known problem according to markun.
13:36:58Genre9mp3Is that a known issue just for Gigabeat?
13:37:01linuxstbAFAIK, it's specific to the gigabeat.
13:37:08Genre9mp3ah...strange
13:37:46Genre9mp3hehe...as you understand I'm having some fun here with my new toy :)
13:37:59JdGordonOK, im conviced... we cant use a ring buffer with MoB in an efficient manner :p
13:39:26linuxstbAFAIK, the intention for MoB is to have one static buffer where the metadata for the current track is copied to. (or maybe two - for the next track info). The metadata is copied from the audio buffer to the static buffer when the track becomes current.
13:39:28JdGordonand a linked list wouldnt work, because eventually we will have very ragmented memory which is obviously bad (TM)
13:39:53JdGordonbut then there is still the penalty for people who dont use it
13:40:13linuxstbYes, but only 2*penalty, not 32*penalty.
13:40:17JdGordonis there such a thing as a ring buffer with static sections?
13:40:41JdGordon3*penalty.... prev, current, next
13:40:54linuxstbAnd the size of the metadata buffers could be semi-dynamic - i.e. allocated from the audio buffer.
13:41:04linuxstbWhy do you need prev?
13:41:26JdGordonwhy not? :p but hmm.. guess so
13:41:42linuxstbcurrent/next are needed for the WPS.
13:42:21JdGordonI'm tihnking also for further down the track when we load lyrics into the MoB for tracks, as well as id3 and AA...
13:42:27linuxstbBut maybe the "next" buffer doesn't need to be as big as current. e.g. do we want to display "next album art" ?
13:42:29JdGordonwhat sort of size limit do we use?
13:43:29linuxstbI don't think lyrics will be as big as album art.
13:43:52JdGordonprobably not... but what if a track has both?
13:44:20linuxstbI'm just saying that the fixed-sized buffer needed for lyrics won't be huge.
13:44:31linuxstbThere will obviously be separate buffers for AA and lyrics.
13:47:00JdGordonhmm... actually only 1 buffer is needed, the next track is in the buffer and not in danger of being removed, so only the current tracks data needs storing statically
13:47:11linuxstbNo, the next track may not be in the buffer.
13:47:38linuxstbBut the metadata is still read (on swcodec at least) in order to display it in the wps.
13:47:39JdGordonthen nothing from that trck is, and you get the current "Next" behaviour, which is fine

14:21:39linuxstbJdGordon: What do you mean by "unwritable" ? What would happen when the playback engine reaches that point and needs to rebuffer?
14:22:19JdGordonit would write up to that point, then skip it and continue writing after it... it would eventually recoup the section when its not imporant anymore
14:22:39JdGordonthe only way it would work is if a small header is put on each memory block
14:25:08linuxstbOK, I understand what you mean. The problem with that is that the codecs expect data to be in contiguous blocks, not with holes in the middle... And we want to make even more use of that feature, not less.
14:26:17 Quit merbanan (Remote closed the connection)
14:26:38JdGordonblocks of what size?
14:27:05linuxstbCurrently it's 32KB, but we want to be able to give non-streaming codecs much large contiguous blocks - i.e. the whole file.
14:27:37JdGordonif the provide the buffer we could copy as much data as they want into it
14:28:04linuxstbWe don't want to copy data from the audio buffer - the codecs decode it directly.
14:29:52linuxstbWe could use the same technique as is used for the buffer wraparound point (there is a "guard buffer" where the playback engine copies data into) when we reach these "holes", which would work for the current codecs, but not when full support for non-streaming codecs is added.
14:31:37JdGordoncould we use something like char* get_next_block(int* size); which gives the codec the pointer to the block it needs and let the codec read up to size then call it again to get the next bit?

14:37:28linuxstbJdGordon: Currently those files can't be played. I think that's the reason the mod codec is still on flyspray, and not in SVN.
14:38:07JdGordonI guess hwcodec works fine by streaming smaller sections of the file to the mas then?
14:38:35linuxstbYes, the mas just needs a bitstream - no problems.
14:38:51linuxstbBut that's only mpeg audio - swcodec has to support many different formats

14:44:40JdGordonwhy does the codec need the whole file to do any decoding?
14:44:56 Quit safi1 ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
14:45:23linuxstbBecause it does... For example the MOD codec has tables of samples and requires random-access to them in order to create music.
14:46:10linuxstb"streaming" codecs like MPEG audio (and most of the formats swcodec currently supports) are not like that, and data is consumed a frame at a time from the input file.
14:46:20JdGordonbut thats not the _whole_ file... it might only be a few hundred kb that it needs to keep in memory?
14:46:53linuxstbPlease believe me - some codec formats require random access to the entire file.
14:47:10JdGordonok
14:47:39linuxstbThis is something not currently handled in the playback engine, but is desired.
14:47:44JdGordonso fine, as long as the whole file fits in the aviable area of the ring it should be fine
14:48:55JdGordonin general though.. the codecs would be happy to call a function to get the next section of data and not care about its actual size?
14:50:50roolkuJdGordon: only streaming codecs
14:51:19roolkuBTW: please don't forget midi when designing MOB (i.e. allow the loading of a patch set)
14:52:46linuxstbJdGordon: Having even a single hole in the audio buffer would make the largest available contiguous space unpredictable - meaning that sometimes large files will work, and sometimes they won't...
14:53:48JdGordonyep, but worse case is that you would have to wait for the buffer to be fully empty before loading that file
14:54:11JdGordonas apposed to possibly never beign able to load it because the static MoB buffer is using too much ram which you never use :p

15:46:15linuxstbGenre9mp3: It works fine for me - I can play a 352x240 VCD.
15:47:22Genre9mp3hmm... I just managed to play one, too
15:47:28cropI synchronise to the time used in the channel log. There's no other time! This way we have a chance to communicate unambigously

15:47:43Nico_Pcrop: by "token for NOP" i assume you're referring to WPS_NO_TOKEN ?
15:47:53cropNico_P: yes.
15:48:14Nico_Pthis one isn't stored. It's only used to make some tags not be stored as tokens
15:48:19linuxstbGenre9mp3: It may be an (internal libmpeg2) buffering issue. Can you try and play one of your files in the ipod video sim? (the gigabeat sim doesn't rotate the videos, so isn't a good test for 320x240 output).
15:48:32Nico_P(e.g. the image prelod tag, xl)
15:48:49linuxstbGenre9mp3: The sim should hopefully display some debugging output which would be useful to see. Or alternatively, if you want to give me one of your files, I'll investigate.
15:49:07markunlinuxstb: yesterday the audio stopped to playback after maybe 1 hour into the video, didn't investigate it any further yet but just to let you know.
15:49:23cropWhat about EOL? If I've understood the code correctly it's used as a line delimiter
15:49:23Nico_Pcrop: the rest sounds good to me
15:49:31Genre9mp3linuxstb: sure
15:49:32Nico_Pcrop: yes
15:49:44linuxstbHmm... I've only tried a video which is about 60 minutes long. Maybe there's an overflow somewhere...
15:50:04cropNico_P: will you try that then?
15:50:06linuxstbGenre9mp3: Sure to which option - giving me the file, or testing yourself in the sim?
15:50:16Nico_Pcrop: sure, I'll look into it
15:50:29cropA general question: what value is used for the build size table? The size of the rockbox.xxx file?
15:50:32markunlinuxstb: hard to debug if you have to wait an hour for the result :)
15:51:06linuxstbmarkun: Yep... Or maybe just a review of the code would be a better approach...
15:51:13markunyes
15:51:25Nico_Pcrop: yes
15:51:31cropNico_P: and I'd comment the typedef for the token parsing function: what the param means and what it should return.
15:51:36Genre9mp3linuxstb: 352x288 should play as well, right?
15:51:42linuxstbAlthough I'm not touching those parts of mpegplayer until jhMikeS commits his work.
15:51:55Nico_Pcrop: very true
15:52:03linuxstbGenre9mp3: Maybe, but that would need bigger internal buffers - the extra 48 rows may be enough to stop the file working.
15:52:25cropNico_P: btw, one more thing confused me. In all the functions, there's a char* param named wps_token. it's confusing since it's not a token (ot type wps_token).
15:52:55linuxstbGenre9mp3: You could try increasing the size of the buffer given to libmpeg2's internal mallocs - LIBMPEG2_BUFFER_SIZE defined in mpegplayer.c
15:53:00Genre9mp3linuxstb: The one that played was 352x272, the others that did not were 352x288
15:53:13Nico_Pcrop: I know it's not very clear... Actually I wasn't the one who found that name :) I should've changed it but got used to it

15:56:11 Join funky [0] (n=repulse@unaffiliated/funky)
15:56:31JdGordonseen as the playlist viewer needs the plugin buffer anyway, would it be ok to move it to a rock?
15:56:35cropNico_P: wps_read? wps_char? But wps_token is very confusing. Those two names are not very good but still better IMHO. If I'll come up with something better I'll et you know
15:57:01Nico_Pcrop: wps_buffer ? like in wps_parse()
15:57:29cropNico_P: is it the buffer? Or the current reading pos?
15:57:50Nico_Pit's the reading pos
15:58:12bluebrotherhmm. Isn't FS #6974 a tagging issue?
15:59:01Nico_Pcrop: I think I'll go with wps_char
15:59:09cropNico_P: hrm... I don't know. wps_buffer would be ok as well. But please: not wps_token :-)
15:59:47cropNico_P: or even wps_src_char?
16:00
16:00:22Nico_PI think I prefer wps_buffer. Because it's still a buffer even though it's not pointing to the start of that buffer
16:01:50 Join jac0b [0] (n=jac0b@gifn3.fpl.com)
16:01:58cropYes, that was also my thought. For the parsing func it _is_ the buffer.
16:02:33cropIt's handed the appropriate buffer so to speak
16:02:50Nico_Pyes
16:03:07linuxstbNico_P: Maybe something like wps_bufptr - that indicates to me that it's a pointer into a buffer.

16:28:03kernel-i386okay fine
16:28:05bluebrotherbut if you follow the svn logs you'll find that there were some improvements recently
16:28:06kernel-i386ehm...
16:28:15kernel-i386actually I don't try to watch videos

16:29:04kernel-i386okay - so "should" I try it?
16:29:05bluebrotheras mpegplayer is part of the regular builds you can simply try it out using that
16:29:21bluebrotherdepends on you −− it might be worth a try.
16:29:22kernel-i386...so I mean - if you tell me it's not "working" yet - should I try?
16:29:29kernel-i386..well ok
16:29:30linuxstbkernel-i386: Read the PluginMpegplayer page for the current status.

16:29:35kernel-i386where to find?
16:29:37JavaMan22try it silly boy!
16:29:41kernel-i386hehe
16:29:42cropBut that size depends on the compiler version, right? So if I create a patch and want to see how it changes the bin size I have first to do a clean build and then the build with the patch, right?
16:29:48bluebrotherwhat do you mean by "not working"? It does something, so it works in some way
16:30:00bluebrotherbut of course it depends on what you expect
16:30:12bluebrotherkernel-i386: the wiki? ;-)

17:21:44kernel-i386hmm, but now I really need to think of an alternative theme
17:22:29kernel-i386do you know whether that "scrolling the whole line" thing can be coded?
17:22:43bluebrotherit can. There is a patch, called "scrolling margins"
17:22:43kernel-i386...or if it is already on "a list"
17:22:47kernel-i386wow
17:22:54kernel-i386so you mean - I just have to update? :P
17:23:02kernel-i386or ...is it at all possible
17:23:06bluebrotherbut it recently broke with the addition of the wps tokenizer
17:23:09kernel-i386but only with some manual editing
17:23:17kernel-i386what's a tokenizer?
17:23:22bluebrother"patches" refer to source patches
17:23:30kernel-i386hmm, ok - I see
17:23:42kernel-i386so ...after all - is it possible?
17:23:43bluebrotherit's an internal thing on how to parse and store the data that is present in the wps file
17:24:04markunkernel-i386: there are some plans to make the display code more flexible to allow for a nice implementation of partial scrolling
17:24:12kernel-i386hmm ah ok... didn't understand all of it - but ok hehe
17:24:14bluebrotherit is _possible_, but you need to build Rockbox yourself and adjust the patch (unless someone else does)
17:24:32kernel-i386is it like "work" to do that?
17:24:41bluebrotheryes.
17:24:43markunkernel-i386: yes, it's some work
17:24:43kernel-i386I mean... I can copy some files and type "make" - but that's all
17:24:50kernel-i386hehe
17:24:52markunthat will not be enough
17:24:53kernel-i386ok... hmmm
17:25:00markunbut you can wait for someone else to fix it
17:25:07bluebrotheryou need to setup a complete cross compiler toolchain
17:25:16kernel-i386ok, how much money do you guys want ;)
17:25:20markunand then you don't have to do much more than 'copy and make'
17:25:45markunkernel-i386: there will be a devcon soon and beer money is always welcome :)

19:42:37MentalDentalI really don't understand the whole concept.
19:42:51MentalDentalI think I've pretty much figured out the basic coding of a WPS.
19:43:03MentalDentalBut I don't understand how you would change images, etc.
19:43:16MentalDentalOr about positioning things on screen.
19:43:44MentalDentalAnd there are still a few codes I don't quite grasp.
19:44:00MentalDentalIf anyone's willing to give me a little help, I'd be more than grateful.
19:44:36bluebrothercheck some existing themes
19:44:49bluebrotherthe wps is line based. You can only position bitmaps using coordinates
19:45:16MentalDentalSo when I'm positioning an image, it's pretty much trial and error, right?
19:45:52bluebrothersort of.
19:45:59linuxstbYou could draw all the text first, then take a screendump, then use that to position the images.
19:46:09MentalDentalThat sounds pretty good.
19:46:15bluebrotherbut it isn't too much of a deal when using the simulator
19:46:30MentalDentalYea, I'm just downloading that now.
19:46:44MentalDentalAnd one more thing I'm struggling with.
19:47:01MentalDentalWhen you're putting in an image, where abouts would you need to put it?
19:47:05MentalDentalAs in the file.
19:47:22MentalDentalIn the same directory as the WPS? Or in a seperate 'images' folder?

20:32:10Tired_Question: I just installed RockBox on my 5.5G iPod, and now it boots directly into RockBox, not the bootloader....did I lose ipodlinux forever?
20:33:06linuxstbIt sounds like you installed the Rockbox bootloader - which would have replaced the ipodlinux bootloader.
20:34:04Tired_if I replace back the ipl bootloader, will it bring back ipl, or would installing rockbox have messed it up?
20:34:39Tired_i was sorta hoping ipl and rockbox could coexist
20:34:41MentalDentalOk. So I don't have it after all.
20:34:42linuxstbIt should bring back ipl - the Rockbox installer shouldn't have deleted anything.
20:35:08MentalDentalI'm just not understanding images.
20:35:15linuxstbTired_: The loader2 bootloader can start Rockbox - see the documentation in the ipodlinux wiki.
20:35:42Tired_yeah, that's what I thought..i must be doing it wrong
20:35:49linuxstbBut make sure you use a recent version of loader2 - the old 2.4 version won't work with Rockbox.

21:01:18Tired_YAY!
21:01:42Tired_Thanks for the help...everything is playing nicely now, and I didn't actually lose any of my ipl settings :)
21:03:52Tired_you guys ever think about working with the ipl project on some kind of unified bootloader? seems like the aims and audience are similar...
21:04:46Tired_although I suppose an ipod bootloader would be useless on the other devices rockbox supports

21:10:38MentalDentalHmm. Could anyone tell me how to change fonts in the UI Sim? I navigate to the fonts directory, and there's nothing there.I
21:11:03MentalDentalI've created one, and tried making a font, but this file shows up, but doesn't alter the font when I apply it.
21:12:15bluebrotherthe sim should have the fonts.
21:12:26bluebrotherthey are copied when running "make install"
21:12:59MentalDentalRight, so I have to run make install.
21:13:23bluebrotherassuming you build the sim yourself
21:13:39MentalDentalI'm afraid I got a pre-compiled version.
21:13:51bluebrotherthe one from rasher's site?
21:14:17bluebrotherbut they should still have the fonts.
21:15:21MentalDentalYea, the Rasher one.
21:15:41MentalDentalI've worked around it by making a fonts directory and copied font files to it now.
21:15:49MentalDentalIt seems the font that I made myself didn't work.
21:16:55bluebrotherah. So it's a font you created, not the shipped fonts?
21:17:40MentalDentalCorrect. The shipped fonts didn't show up.
21:17:48MentalDentalBut when I pasted them to that directory, they worked just fine.
21:18:00MentalDentalIt seems I converted the font in question incorrectly.
21:18:06bluebrothermaybe they are not part of the donwload package.
21:18:36MentalDentalPerhaps
21:18:48bluebrotherhehe ... rasher's site clearly states that the fonts aren't included.
21:19:33bluebrotherif you build the sim yourself it also installs the fonts. Seems that got me confused a bit.

21:29:52MentalDentalIt's tough work learning this. But I'm sure it will be worth it.
21:32:10Tired_why is the battery life so much worse? is it just a matter of finding more efficient ways to code the firmware?
21:33:48MentalDentalI think so.
21:34:02MentalDentalI think that also, the fact that rockbox has more features?
21:34:05bluebrotherTired_: on ipods?
21:34:22bluebrotherit's assumed that it is caused by some missing hardware initialization.
21:34:27Tired_yeah
21:34:46bluebrotherthis was the case for iriver h300 −− the usb otg chip wasn't initialized properly and drained quite some power
21:34:59bluebrotherbut nobody figured out what exactly is causing the issue
21:35:03Tired_i just ran my battery down to 50% adjusting the settings :/
21:35:31Tired_wasn't even playing music
21:36:12MentalDentalYea, I think that's the major downside to rockbox on ipods
21:37:25Tired_it should get better with time (I hope)
21:37:37MentalDentalDoes anyone know how to change the menu background screen?

21:39:32Tired_ah, that sounds easy...does a background eat your batteries?

22:17:39docgnomegross. I really wanted to convert my library to OGG
22:19:36Soul-SlayerBenefits of OGG over MP3?
22:19:55docgnomeit's an open format for one.
22:19:56MentalDentalMoral reasons.
22:19:58bluebrotherbetter quality. Free format. No more hassles with id3 encoding type
22:21:02MentalDentalDoes anyone have any links to explain WPSs more? I've read the Wiki, the manual, and the simple Wiki.
22:21:05Soul-SlayerI've never understood why an open format for audio is important. Software I can understand, but why audio?
