#rockbox log for 2007-04-11

00:00:03datachildi have the rockbox.ipod file in my ipod root, it's an old one tho.. should i replace that one with the new rockbox.ipod file that in my .rockbox dir?
00:00:29bluebrotherwhat bootloader are you using?
00:00:37 Quit davina (Remote closed the connection)
00:00:51datachildIPL
00:00:56bluebrothermeep.
00:01:17bluebrotherthe Rockbox bootloader defaults to /.rockbox/rockbox.ipod first
00:01:21bluebrotherIPL doesn't.
00:01:27datachild:/
00:01:32bluebrotheryou have a couple of options:
00:01:32 Quit H10_007quick ("ChatZilla 0.9.78.1 [Firefox 2.0.0.3/2007030916]")
00:01:42datachildbut i could just overwrite that file with the new one, right?
00:01:49bluebrother(1) move rockbox.ipod out of /.rockbox to the root. You need to do this on every update
00:02:02bluebrother(2) adjust the IPL loader to look at the right location
00:02:04datachildthat's what i just did, gonna see if it works
00:02:13bluebrother(3) use the Rockbox bootloader to boot IPL :D
00:03:21*bluebrother uses (3)
00:03:22*Llorean wishes people would just use the official bootloader, or at least try it before reporting problems.
00:03:24datachildworks
00:03:27datachildit works
00:03:31LloreanOr at the very least, tell us what unofficial mods they had up front
00:03:32datachildthanks alto!
00:03:35*bluebrother agrees with Llorean
00:04:04bluebrotherhow about telling people to use our bootloader to boot IPL? Works really fine here ;-)
00:04:22Lloreanbluebrother: Have you tried clicking on linux.ipod and using RoLo to load it?
00:04:27LloreanOr is it linux.bin for you right now?
00:04:46bluebrothernot yet. I manually installed the ipl root system and put linux.bin to the root
00:04:54bluebrotherbut I also created linux.ipod.
00:04:57bluebrotherlemme try ...
00:05:16LloreanI've clicked linux.ipod and had it load fine, but since I don't have an iPL root system, it hangs eventually, of course
00:05:49bluebrotherhmm. It crashed, but directly after reboot roloing worked.
00:06:53LloreanWell RoLo still has some work to go, though, but that's nice to see.

00:07:44bluebrotherif I started playback before roloing it crashes.
00:08:13bluebrotherbut holding play upon bootup works reliably.
00:08:27LloreanSo, maybe coprocessor related.

00:09:49LloreanBeing able to load Apple OS or Linux from within Rockbox completely negates the need for Loader2 :-P
00:10:21bluebrotherhehe
00:12:55bluebrotherflights to sweden got too expensive the last week. So no devcon for me :'-(
00:14:18*Llorean never had the money
00:14:44*petur wonders if preglow's coming and mentions the word 'beer'
00:15:10*bluebrother notices a hilight on "beer"
00:15:20peturwhat, you too? :p
00:15:45bluebrotherhehe ... but maybe I should use a different color than green ;-)

00:16:06bluebrotherI was playing around with settings in irssi.
00:16:44practisevoodoomy iriver h320 has stopped loading its original firmware when the rec button is held down during startup
00:16:53practisevoodooanyone had this problem?
00:17:18peturyou mean it crashes or it always loads rockbox?
00:17:37 Join safetydan [0] (i=cbca159f@rockbox/developer/safetydan)
00:17:49practisevoodooalways rockbox
00:17:56bluebrotherdoes the rec button itself work? I.e. does the backlight come on when pressing it in Rockbox?
00:18:16*safetydan curses hardware eq...
00:18:20safetydannothing but trouble that code
00:18:45practisevoodooit works but when it is pressed during startup it wipes my rockbox settings
00:19:04Lloreansafetydan: Is it a case of the settings being loaded before the hardware is inited or something, on boot?
00:19:09bluebrotherthat's intended.
00:19:16Lloreanpractisevoodoo: You're not holding it early enough from the sounds of it
00:19:18stripwaxpractisevoodoo - are you pressing it too late?
00:19:33stripwax^ (what Llorean said)
00:19:47safetydanLlorean, yup. I've stared at the code and I can't see why it wouldn't work. Not having an iPod Video makes it a tad hard to test.
00:19:51amiconnBagder: Still there?
00:19:56practisevoodoohrm, well done stripwax
00:20:25Lloreansafetydan: Yeah, damn device-specific hardware.
00:20:47practisevoodooi've been using it for two years and never had this problem before and then all of a sudden i must have started doing it differently
00:22:22 Quit kubiix ("Miranda IM! Smaller, Faster, Easier. http://miranda-im.org")
00:24:59linuxstbLlorean: I haven't looked at jhMikeS's commit yet, but I did look at an earlier patch. Basically, he's just cleaned everything up, and rewritten the a/v sync and frame display timing code to make everything smoother.
00:26:10Lloreanlinuxstb: It is very, very, very much smoother on my Gigabeat with my 29.97 files
00:26:42markunLlorean: I agree
00:26:53 Quit Forte ("What the hells a Jigawatt?!")
00:27:27linuxstbI think he left a little of my code there...
00:30:07markunlinuxstb: do you plan to still work om mpegplayer?
00:31:24linuxstbMaybe, but jhMikeS seems to have taken an interest, which is fine by me. I only really worked on video because no-one else would...
00:33:11safetydanHrmm... I think the audio related settings need to be applied from audio_init()

00:46:05OinkersHas anybody reported a problem with the latest build and mpegplayer on the H10 5G?
00:46:58linuxstbOinkers: I don't think so. Are you?
00:48:06Oinkerslinuxstb: Yes. The video and audio starts normally, then both fast forward. Finally, there is just video, no audio, and the unit is hung.

00:52:43markunForte: doom, gameboy, tetris, bubbles, sudoky, ...
00:52:56linuxstbpacbox...
00:52:57markunsudoku even
00:53:05pixelmamarkun: not that tet... word ;)
00:53:26markunpixelma: :)
00:53:30 Part Oinkers
00:53:40Fortehow good is gameboy on the ipod video
00:53:41Lloreanlinuxstb: Does pacbox support Ms Pacman?
00:53:47markunno no, rockbloks of course, we promissed not to use the T word :)
00:53:53LloreanForte: Honestly it's not great anywhere.
00:54:05LloreanIt's not *bad* though, really, but you may want to stick to RPGs and turn-based games.
00:54:10markunLlorean: it's not too bad on the Gigabeat
00:54:24Lloreanmarkun: Yeah, the main problem on the gigabeat is the audio issues it still has. :)
00:54:26markunwell, maybe we lack some buttons
00:54:30markunah yes
00:54:32LloreanNah, buttons are fine.
00:55:20pearldiveralso, the latest build seems "faster" somehow, i've been using one from a week ago, just updated with all the latest commits
00:55:29pearldiververy "smooth" browsing all around
00:56:00pearldivergoing from one big folder to another, skipping, seeking, etc
00:56:06pearldiververy little disk access
00:56:12pearldivermaybe its just me though :)
00:56:26linuxstbLlorean: No. The hardware is very similar, and the original emulator I ported (PIE) supported Ms Pacman, but I could never get it to work...
00:56:41Lloreanlinuxstb: Ah. I was just curious.
00:56:49peturpearldiver: did you enable dircache? ;)
00:56:55linuxstbI tried, failed, and gave up...

00:58:39H10_007quickDoes some1 know how to edit the plugin index?
00:58:53H10_007quickIt is way to complex with all the symbols
00:59:06pearldiverbtw, in the 400 tracks playlist, whats the best way to get to the track 200 for example, if you dont know the track title ?
00:59:37linuxstbH10_007quick: How do you want to edit it? It's mostly generated automatically from all the other plugin pages.
00:59:44pearldiverpage scrolling im assumming?
00:59:46Lloreanpearldiver: Page up/down, yes.
00:59:48safetydanLlorean, yeah I think the hardware eq can only be set up after audiohw_init() is called. Which means the eq settings need to be applied in audio_init(). The other sound settings are applied there already so it may actually be an improvement in code clarity.
00:59:59Lloreansafetydan: Makes perfect sense for me.
01:00
01:00:04Lloreansafetydan: That is audio hardware, anyway
01:00:29H10_007quickOh i see
01:00:35safetydannow I just have to wait 8 or so hours until I get home to a compiler to build a patch :)
01:00:49TrueJournalsI'm a bit curious about the mpegplayer commit today... will it allow me to play to videos in a row on my H10? Does it improve the sound quality (get rid of fuzziness in the background)?
01:01:16TrueJournals*play to videos should have been play two videos
01:01:18markunTrueJournals: no and no
01:01:19 Quit petur ("Zzzzz")
01:01:22LloreanTrueJournals: If it fixed a crash, it would've said so.
01:01:48LloreanAt least, if it was known to fix a crash.
01:01:53TrueJournalsOK, just curious...
01:01:57markunTrueJournals: I never heard any fuzziness, what exactly are you talking about?
01:02:03LloreanTrueJournals: You CAN test you know
01:02:06Lloreanmarkun: PortalPlayer issue
01:02:13TrueJournalsLlorean: I'm lazy...
01:02:15Lloreanmarkun: Specifically H10 and Sansa so far.
01:02:46LloreanTrueJournals: It's not like you're never going to update again, just check at next update.

03:53:29LloreanBecause we like it there better?
03:53:42BenHas anyone reported a bug with MPEG Player on Sansa Targets?
03:53:57LloreanBen: People have reported many bugs, you'll have to be more specific.
03:54:11BenThe video played perfectly...one time.
03:54:11LloreanFor example, someone just filed one reporting that mpegplayer plays only one file properly, the second one doesn't work.
03:54:23Benyeah thats the one i just did, i came here to see if there was any info
03:54:25LloreanThey filed if for Sansa, but it's actually a known issue (documented on the mpegplayer wiki page)
03:54:37LloreanWhat kind of info would you be looking for?
03:54:39Benoh really, sorry. that would be my fault.
03:55:56Beni don't see any info about it on the wiki page?
03:56:16Llorean"sometimes mpegplayer doesn't stop the video when requested, and may not successfully start playback of a subsequent video."
03:56:26 Join RaRe [0] (n=Laffin_B@202-89-187-101.static.dsl.amnet.net.au)
03:56:55LloreanOn some players this manifests as mpegplayer refusing to allow you to exit, on others only the audio plays when you start the next video (or nothing at all)
03:57:39Benoh, i was incorrectly assuming that that implied that a restart fixed the problem. not a permanent type of thing.
03:58:07LloreanWhen you restart, you should get one video again, per restart.
03:59:05Benthis is not so on my player. i even reinstalled rockbox, still no video, which makes me mad because it was running beautifully
03:59:39LloreanGive me 5 minutes, I'll test with my Sansa
03:59:57Benoh its not rush or problem, i just wanted to let you guys know.
04:00
04:00:09LloreanWell, what you're describing should be impossible.
04:00:23LloreanNothing that could prevent it from running is or should be capable of being preserved across boots
04:00:49Benthats what i figured.
04:01:07Bencould it have corrupted files?
04:01:32ttyS1I'm tryin to install rockbox on a sansa e280r. where should I put the pp5022.mi4 file after I encrypt it ?
04:01:34LloreanDo you mean "could my player have corrupted files on it" or do you mean "could mpegplayer have corrupted files"?
04:01:41LloreanttyS1: It doesn't work on the e200R
04:01:45 Join Stalwart [0] (n=stalwart@ip-10.154.Home-Lan.fastnet.lv)
04:02:15Beni meant could mpeg player have corruped that file by running it?
04:03:35LloreanNot realistically, no\
04:03:52ttyS1Llorean: i was reading a post on the forum where some one got it working: forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=3225.645
04:03:58 Quit Jeanhub ("Jeanhub does an action that owns you")
04:04:29Benill attempt to reload some of the videos on the player. see if that fixes anything.
04:04:39LloreanttyS1: Where in there does it say it works?
04:05:24LloreanBen: I'm seeing the behaviour you describe.
04:05:25LloreanIt's odd
04:05:47BenYeah
04:06:10Beni thought maybe something was up where i ran out of buffering space? i had very little memory left on the player
04:06:21LloreanThough I'm also concerned that the one time it did work, it reported 0fps
04:07:06ttyS1Llorean: forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=3225.msg69262#msg69262
04:07:38LloreanttyS1: Again, that doesn't say that it works.
04:07:43LloreanIt just says that we can decrypt and encrypt them
04:08:07ttyS1oh ok, I thought that was the whole issue
04:08:21LloreanIf you read the actual e200R thread, you'll see the real status
04:08:35LloreanIt's pretty clear from the majority of information on our site that it doesn't work
04:08:45BenLlorean: Ok i added a new video to my player. it plays that one.
04:09:03BenFPS is displaying properly
04:09:25 Part toffe82
04:09:29Benhowver, video is playing in weird fast-forward mode.
04:10:26Benok tried to play one of the old videos bring up text "Freeze" at the bottom of the screen.
04:10:38LloreanIt says "Freeze"
04:10:43Benyeah
04:10:45LloreanThat's unlikely, it doesn't contain that string.
04:10:51Benyeah i wish i was lying.
04:11:08BenFREEZE! in all caps
04:11:14Benbottom left corner
04:12:29Benone video played fine after that, then another black screen.
04:13:01LloreanI suspect that it's just a case of "videos may or may not play" and the first one did by chance.
04:13:36LloreanUnfortunately the people to talk to about it aren't really around
04:14:06Benok, i was just trying to bring up my problem to the community. trying to assist in any way i could.

04:44:54pearldiveris there a way to display 2 languages on-screen keyboard? or a solution can be, if another language needed, just loading a different .kbd file?
04:50:11Noah0504Llorean: Because I like to keep albums with multiple discs under the same album name. I don't like to label an album Example (Disc 1) and Example (Disc 2).
04:50:29LloreanThat's why you *want* it.
04:51:06Noah0504haha, Yep.
04:51:08LloreanI imagine if someone comes up with a good patch for it, there's no real reason not to have it though.
04:51:34LloreanBut there's many ways around the lack of it.
04:51:46LloreanYou can also number tracks 101-1XX for disc 1, and 202-2XX for disc 2
04:51:47Noah0504Well, I remember seeing some requests for it quite awhile ago, but I didn't know if it had ever been patched or implemented.
04:51:57LloreanThe changelog does exist...
04:52:19Noah0504hehe, But it's been so long, I wouldn't know when to look.
04:52:39LloreanSearch it for "disc number" or "disc" or "number"...
04:52:48Noah0504Ahh, good call.
04:53:01LloreanIt's a lot less fallible than asking in here where you've only got people who may not even have an interest in the feature (I think it's pointless) and don't use it.
04:53:15Noah0504haha
04:54:01Noah0504If I could program worth a heck, I'd try to fix it, if only for myself, but...
04:54:07Noah0504...I can't program worth a heck.

06:43:42JdGordonmidkay: am now
06:44:04midkayJdGordon: i have some or most of the icons in BMP format.. it'd be no problem to create any that are missing. did you want them?
06:44:37JdGordonna its ok now.. i got an easy way to get them all in one hit
06:45:25midkayoh, cool, alright. can i ask what you wanted them for? anything to do with bmp2rb in the build system? :)
06:45:28JdGordon... but if your bored... maybe you would like to create a new icon set for 16bit targets of say size 8x8 (or maybe a bit larger) in full colour for each of the 6x8 icons?
06:46:22midkaythat sounds fun... maybe i'll try my hand at a few now.
06:47:40JdGordonno rush, id like to say it will be ready by monday.. but who knows :p
06:48:26midkayJdGordon: that's cool. sounds like a fun get-my-mind-off-life project. :) what're you up to?
06:48:44JdGordonwhat we need is a single bmp with every icon from the 6x8 enum in recorder/icons.h layed out horizontrally with no space between them
06:48:50JdGordonthemable icon sets
06:49:04midkaysweetness.. hmm though..
06:49:40midkay6x8 translates to 6x7 of actual possible pixels, really.. the blank line at the bottom. what're you gonna do about that?
06:52:42JdGordonthe code will paint whatever size icon gets loaded... the user will be able to load any size from 4x4 to 24x24 (and anything between.. e.g 4x16!)
06:53:04JdGordonoh, but you want a gap between icons... should be possible
06:53:20midkayJdGordon: sounds excellent, just what we need. :)
06:53:25JdGordonim going to center the icons horiz and vertically in the size of a char where is should go

06:54:01midkayi'm just saying, we currently have space at the bottom of each icon. and do you intend to retain that in the new system, or insert space between icons in the code, or what?
06:55:01midkaywithout that space, they'll meet up and it looks pretty ugly.. i guess the easiest way is just to require the icon maker to do it himself (at least a pixel space at the bottom of each..).

07:03:34JdGordonmidkay: I think its best to leave it to the icon author... because it will heavily depend on the font size how much space is between each icon
07:04:05midkayJdGordon: right, sounds appropriate. so the size will be defined in the theme CFG file or something?
07:04:55JdGordonthe user will be able to choose a maximum width and hieght to load (to create a buffer), the actual size will be determined from the dimenaions of the bmp
07:05:47midkaylike bmpwidth = icon width, and bmpheight/num_icons = icon height?
07:06:27JdGordonexactly, but was thinking it would be a horizontal strip, not verticle...
07:06:33JdGordonwhich is easier to draw in though?
07:07:28midkayah, whenever i see bitmap_part images, they're always vertical.. so i just assumed. perhaps for the sake of making it easy to leave a space at the bottom of each icon it'd be best done horizontally.

07:09:18JdGordoni thought horizontal because you would be able to see more at once in your drawing program...
07:09:40JdGordonthat part isnt actually coded yet, so ill leave that choice up to whoever has the loudest voice :p
07:10:24midkayJdGordon: ah, true also i guess.. horizontal is probably best then.
07:11:21JdGordonone thing we havnt figured out is how to do the loadable icons yet (viewers.config)
07:11:30JdGordonany immediate thoughts?
07:11:59JdGordonobviously the text version will be replaced...
07:12:54midkayah... that is a slight problem :)
07:14:48JdGordonthe two options we have come up with is a viewers.bmp image with all the icons, and in viewers.config an index number would be used so the right icon is used, or a seperate image for each extension (which would suck)
07:15:38midkayviewers.bmp sounds better.. but hmm.. blah. i guess that's about as good as it gets.

07:23:33amiconnJdGordon: You can't really say whether a horizontal or vertical strip is easier to draw. A vertical strip keeps the pixels of one icon closer together in memory, that's about the only thing for 16 bit targets. For 1 bit and 2 bit targets, draw speed depends on relative alignment of bitmap and framebuffer
07:24:38JdGordonah, didnt think about that... so which is better from a code point of view? seen as all icons will be loaded into a single chunk of ram?
07:24:51amiconnSo just go with the strip type you think is easier to handle for the author. A horizontal strip is the more natural orientation imho, while a vertical strip allows previewing the icons with text to the right without prior rearrangement

09:50:37linuxstbSliMM: I'm not sure if asm will help those functions that much - I think you should be dealing with the native pixel format (i.e. rgb565) directly, not converting back and forwards between that and rgb888.
09:51:11SliMMthat is no problem, but it will only work on 16 bpp targets
09:51:30linuxstbWe only have 16bpp targets...

09:52:48linuxstbThere are two different pixel packing formats for 16bpp LCDs though - "RGB565" and "RGB565_BYTESWAPPED". The second contains the high and low bytes in reverse order.
09:52:50SliMMnow, i belive that ipod nano has a different colour layout
09:53:05linuxstbYes, the Nano has the byte-swapped version.

10:38:30LinusNyes
10:40:28midkayJdGordon: what works? have you got them loading from an on-disk BMP?
10:41:07JdGordonnot yet, I have them loading the inbuilt icons correctly, which is a good start anyway :p
10:41:34JdGordongrr... no, main lcd isnt showing transparent
10:41:34midkayhave what loading the inbuilt icons already?
10:42:04JdGordonthe current icons, instead of having to use bmp2rb, its done like the rockbox logo
10:42:24midkaybmp2rb'd in the build process, you mean?
10:42:44JdGordonyeha
10:43:07JdGordonnow to fix the broken icons, then get loadable bmps working
10:43:19JdGordonthen viewers.config and we are done
10:43:29midkayah, that's good anyhow. (in fact if you polish that up it might be a nice halfway commit...)
10:44:03amiconnSliMM: Preincrement vs. postincrement shouldn't make a difference, especially not on arm
10:44:06JdGordonby polish you mean remove the dozen warnings from the compile
10:44:07JdGordon?
10:44:47amiconnBut true transparency is a non-no on 16 bit targets, unless someone comes up with a really clever way to apply the transparency without unpacking the pixel word
10:44:54amiconnIt'd be way too slow
10:44:59midkayJdGordon: haha, aside from having everything work correctly, basically yes :)
10:45:30amiconnWhat would be possible would be coarse transparency, like 0/50/100% or maybe even 0/25/50/75/100%

11:01:26SliMMmagenta is 100% transparent
11:01:27JdGordonta
11:01:45SliMMand everithing else is 100% opaque
11:02:01linuxstbJdGordon: I don't think it's that simple - you need to round the sizes up to a multiple of the number of pixels packed together.
11:02:25LinusNJdGordon: why do you need to calculate the size?
11:02:44JdGordonfor the buffer size to be able to load customisable icons sets
11:02:46SliMMbut for the alpha mask there is a little bit more work
11:03:08linuxstbShouldn't that space be allocated based on the size of the icons being loaded?
11:03:26LinusNJdGordon: yes, but why not just let the bmp loader load the image and then see how much buffer space was used?
11:04:35cropYes, I mean the alpha mask. And for the start, it could be values that can be computed fast −− as amiconn said. Only 4 or 8 levels.
11:05:06LinusNJdGordon: check load_bitmap() in apps/gui/wps_parser.c
11:05:09JdGordonthe idea was to give the user a max width and max height for icons which they could load, so they could change without rebooting
11:05:48LinusNJdGordon: i think you should handle it just like the wps does it
11:06:02SliMMcrop: i have already written a function for drawing bitmaps with an external alpha channel
11:06:08LinusNi.e don't use buffer_alloc()
11:06:17SliMMi'll "publish" it after some polishing
11:06:24SliMMbut i'm pretty lazy
11:06:42JdGordonLinusN: doesnt the wps create a static buffer? so if you dont want the icons your stilll penalised?
11:06:53cropOk, I'd better shut up then and wait for the patch/commit
11:06:58LinusNJdGordon: that is true
11:07:14SliMMby "external alpha cahannel" i mean an extra grayscale (or redscale) bitmap
11:07:41LinusNJdGordon: but i think that is a small price to pay for not having to reboot when you change the theme
11:07:42amiconnFew-level alpha can be done by shifting and masking, without unpackingthe pixels
11:07:58JdGordonLinusN: ok, means 2 less settings also
11:08:21amiconnBut that's not feasible for more than 3 or 5 steps
11:08:27LinusNit works fine for the wps, so i think it should work for the icons too
11:08:46***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
11:08:51SliMMamiconn: isn't unpacking the pixels shifting?
11:08:53amiconnFor more all I can see is that you need to unpack, multiply, and repack, and then it becomes so slow that it's not suitable for the core
11:09:39amiconnSliMM: Nope. Unpacking needs shifting, but not all shifting means unpacking the pixels
11:09:51SliMMno.. shift, average, shift
11:09:59amiconn?
11:10:09SliMMamiconn: unpacking native lcd color is just shifting
11:10:23jhMikeSamiconn: From an old program of mine: http://www.pastebin.ca/434214 −− however this could be optimized far more than it is
11:10:30amiconnNo it's not
11:10:52linuxstbjhMikeS: Have you read the logs regarding the mpegplayer problems on dual core targets?
11:11:01SliMMamiconn: but what is it?
11:11:11amiconnFor unpacking, you need to shift+mask the packed pixel to create 3 values: r, g and b
11:11:37amiconnSimple transparency can be done without that, working with shift+mask on the packed pixel directly
11:11:44jhMikeSlinuxstb: yes...it seems they're not new? I'm not clear
11:12:18jhMikeSyou can multipy three components at once if the alpha range is 0-31
11:12:25linuxstbNo, they're new.
11:12:36SliMM(color << 5) >> 5 is done without masking :P
11:12:50linuxstbOr maybe all you've done is made existing problems 100% consistent...

11:14:46amiconnMasking or double shift is the same

11:38:51jhMikeSit still does...it's not even safe on the same core in all situation. I think the audio thread should too. It's really the only safe method.
11:38:54LinusNok, so assume that the max icon size would be 24*24 pixels
11:38:58SliMMwhat do you think about http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xiaolin_Wu's_line_algorithm
11:39:00SliMM?
11:39:05jhMikeSBut the video thread committing suicide is a race condition anyway
11:39:12JdGordonok, 24x24 it is
11:39:13LinusNthen multiply that with the max number of icons
11:39:22pondlifejhMikeS: Does the problem occur on the simulator?
11:39:42JdGordonactually.. should that max be put in the configs?

11:40:31LinusNJdGordon: anywhere you feel is best
11:41:34SliMMJdGordon: when will you finish this icon thing? i can hardly wait :D
11:42:19JdGordonshouldnt be long.. except we still have to figure out how to handle viewers.config
11:43:21jhMikeSpondlife: I haven't checked the sim. I do know a sequence that would guarantee the video thread to be in core code before an exit happens though.
11:43:43SliMMhow large will the icons be?
11:44:54JdGordonSliMM: as large as you want.. anything from 1x1 to 24x24
11:45:45SliMMi can search for some simple good-looking icons
11:46:16SliMMand there should be a custom viewers.config, don't you think?
11:46:17jhMikeS1) Kill the video thread and wait for it to signal it is about to kill itself. 2) Wait for audio thread to die (it can suicide too to be safe) 3) Delay long enough for video thread to suicide...a small delay long enough for it to call remove_thread(NULL).
11:48:11jhMikeSjust step two should guarantee to have step 3 completed by the time it's done but waiting a tick will be sure.
11:50:26jhMikeSCan interrupts be disabled deliberately on the other core?
11:50:28barrywardelllinuxstb: have you seen this: http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/6964 ?
11:51:26linuxstbbarrywardell: No, but I was around when Toni discussed it in IRC with amiconn.
11:52:08barrywardellah, ok. maybe that's the reason for the bad sound quality on H10 too
11:52:51linuxstbVery probably.
11:52:54jhMikeSI'll also double check the audio clock stoppage.
11:54:04jhMikeSI'll do all that and commit an update since it's much more sound in any case anyway
11:55:43barrywardelllinuxstb: but nobody found a solution yet?
11:56:17amiconnDoes the cop even have interrupts enabled? Afaik it doesn't...
11:56:32linuxstbI think it does - it needs them for sleep and yield to work.
11:56:43linuxstbSorry, for sleep to work.
11:57:23linuxstbbarrywardell: I haven't looked at it, I don't know if anyone else has.
11:58:03SliMMdo i have to use a custom build to have the cop enabled?
11:58:14 Part tucoz
11:59:13safetydanSliMM: no that's been included for a while now
11:59:43jhMikeSamiconn: well, I just don't want any interrupt when the video thread is racing to get into remove_thread. I guess it's now a problem then and it should be done in a few microseconds.

13:21:15Mri have the playlist in both

13:24:41GodEaterjust my 2 cents
13:24:50Mrcrap
13:25:00Mrthere has to be another way
13:25:10GodEaterthere is, load all the music by drag and drop
13:25:11Mrother than adding each song individually
13:25:17SliMMmr: just use copypod and save your files frop the ipod to.. the ipod

13:25:52linuxstbI expect that the playlist viewer will eventually be able to display information from the database (where its available), so the situation may get better in the future. But the best way to use Rockbox is to only use Rockbox...

14:27:41JdGordonwell, I have an odd bug, on the h100 sim, the remote icons are drawn correclty, but the main screen icons are not, both using the default set and the same code to draw them!
14:30:39JdGordonamiconn: any idea what might be the problem?
14:31:14JdGordonthe main screen icons are drawn double the size, but only the top half
14:31:34linuxstbWhat formats are the bitmaps, and what functions are you using to draw them?
14:31:50 Join webguest14 [0] (i=c30361de@gateway/web/cgi-irc/labb.contactor.se/x-dbae455c69da4533)
14:32:17JdGordonnative so unsigned char *, and with mono_bitmap_part
14:32:34linuxstbThat's the problem - you can't draw native bitmaps using the mono_bitmap* functions...
14:32:49linuxstbIt works on the remote by chance - because "native" is mono.
14:32:57markunpreglow: looks like I will see Autechre life for the first time this summer!
14:33:06JdGordonoh? bah
14:33:09JdGordonwhat do I use?
14:33:23webguest14hi, is the iriver H140 capable of PLAYING 24bit/48kHz WAv-files? thx for your help, Arni
14:33:31linuxstbJust the normal bitmap functions (not prefixed by mono). If you want transparency, use those functions.
14:34:13*JdGordon looks forward to when all these will be merged into one function :p
14:34:39bluebrotherwebguest14: afaik the hardware does't support more than 16 bits, so you would need to resample
14:35:15linuxstbIt also only plays at a maximum of 44.1KHz...
14:35:29JdGordonbitmap_part crashes when it tries drawing the remote... do I use mono_bitmap_part for that and bitmpa_part for the main screen?
14:35:41linuxstbSo yes, Rockbox plays 24-bit/48KHz files, but converts them to 16-bit/44.1KHz before sending the data to the DAC.

14:38:24linuxstbJdGordon: Are you using the "screen" API, or the lcd functions directly?

I can't remember exactly what the problems were though....
14:38:39JdGordonI'm using the screen api

14:42:15linuxstbMy commit 11208 was this - "Revert change to screen_access.c (adding the native-bitmap drawing function) that caused warnings on the H3x0. We now draw the USB logo using the normal lcd_bitmap() and lcd_remote_bitmap() functions instead of the screens API, which doesn't handle the differing bitmaps types well."
14:43:16linuxstbIIRC, the problem was that the bitmaps have different types for the main screen and remote on the H300 - 16bpp (packed into a short) for the main screen and 2bpp (packed into a char) for the remote.
14:44:09JdGordonthe screen api doesnt set all of the *_bitmap_* functions to anything for the remote which caused the crash, so it should be safe

14:45:39linuxstbThat's the problem - it should map all the functions for the remote, but can't.
14:45:58linuxstb(because their types are different)
14:46:56jhMikeSthe i2s can support 16,18 and 20 bits and the PDOR1 and PDOR2 registers support 20 bits per channel and the iis2 channel is configurable to use PDOR1 and PDOR2 so 20 bit output looks workable
14:48:14jhMikeScome to think of it, with low latency we'd not have to interleave the data and could leave it 32-bits on output
14:48:18JdGordonlinuxstb: right, but if the functions which are mapped correctly are used, it shoudl be ok?

14:53:32linuxstbJdGordon: Yes, but if you call different functions for different screens, you may as well just not use the screens api at all...
14:54:17JdGordonthats true, ok, so only the remote lcd function needs to be handled seperatly right?

16:21:42linuxstbamiconn: Yes, but my question is does that ever happen in practice?
16:21:43Mrso basically without that EXACT one this can be expected
16:22:12linuxstbamiconn: I mean, we can still support different extensions, but hard-code the supported filetypes (and hence icons) in the core - the same way as codecs.
16:22:23Mrforgive me, im not familiar with how the Ipod Operating System works...
16:22:39Neovanglistsenab builds are svn + albumart + brightness + cop (optional) + some other misc stuff
16:22:48amiconnI'm not sure, but it might. I don't see why we would not want this flexibility here, while in a different place we have more flexibility than (imho) needed
16:23:05Neovanglistyou can make "senab compatible" builds yourself, you just need go get the patches (which are mostly in the bugtracking system on rockbox.org anyway)
16:23:11markunMr: by ipod OS you mean rockbox?

16:35:01NeovanglistI guess there was some arm quirkiness with bus width that could require it
16:35:03linuxstbNo-one is sure about anything when it comes to ipod hardware....
16:35:05Neovanglistbut 32bit worked quite well for me
16:35:58Neovanglistalso
16:36:05Neovanglistthe duffs device in the draw code...
16:36:12Neovanglistwhat the hell? :)
16:36:34linuxstbIt worked - i.e. it gave a measurable speedup compared to the code it replaced...
16:36:35NeovanglistI understand why... but still :P
16:36:56Neovanglistyea, it looks like it was so you could do batched stores in variable amounts
16:37:06Neovanglistie, variable loop unrolling
16:37:08Forteyeah so my ipod mini died
16:37:11Forteagain
16:37:17B4gderNeovanglist: we usually work interative, we improve things gradually where people like to work on stuff
16:37:31Neovanglistnod
16:37:37linuxstbNeovanglist: How much of a speedup have you gained with your lcd-ipodvideo.c driver changes?
16:38:01Neovanglistwell the thing is my driver changes and way of drawing more or less bypassed the entire existing pixel write interface, so they aren't really appliciable at the moment
16:38:09NeovanglistI was doing some democoding, and hitting my routines directly from a plugin
16:38:15Neovanglist(even though it's not really safe)
16:38:30Neovanglistbut they did get nice things on screen and with good speedup
16:38:43Neovanglisthowever I didn't do any real benchmarks, could just tell that my stuff was running considerable smoother
16:38:49Neovanglist*considerably
16:39:11linuxstbDid you remove the "finishup" delay?
16:39:23NeovanglistI tried with and without
16:39:33NeovanglistI don't really get why it's needed, it "works" without it
16:39:47Neovanglistit seems completely unreasonable to me that it should be needed
16:39:51linuxstbIt doesn't work without it...
16:39:52Fortewell
16:39:57Fortemy video is freezing now
16:39:58linuxstbYou'll get corrupted output on the LCD.
16:39:59B4gderto me it doesn't sound like you've tested enough
16:40:11Neovanglistworked fine with my stuff, I was drawing uncorrupted video on the LCD without using it
16:40:15Neovanglistat least not using it every frame
16:40:31 Quit inversions ()
16:40:32NeovanglistI'm not sure if the rockbox stuff was calling it in the background in another thread or something
16:40:48Neovanglistbut I had my own code which was sending data to the in port on the lcd controller and manging my own framebuffers
16:40:50linuxstbNo, all UI stuff is done in the main thread - and plugins run in the main thread.
16:40:53Neovanglistand my video worked fine
16:41:06NeovanglistI can show my functions if you like
16:41:11Neovanglistjust would need to grab them
16:41:27linuxstbSure, but it doesn't sound like they'll be applicable to the standard LCD driver.
16:41:34Neovanglistsure, which is what I said :)
16:41:56Neovanglisthowever I think there must be a better general way of drawing in general which can yield some benefit
16:42:12linuxstbSo I'm not quite sure what you're saying - apart from bypassing a device-independent API is giving speed improvements...
16:42:23Neovanglistalso I've been reading some things that says the broadcom chip has a setup engine and some kind of rasterization ability, however it's impossible to get docs
16:43:11B4gderit could have all sorts of magic
16:43:13markunNeovanglist: the lack of docs are a problem for all ipod hardware unfortunately
16:43:14Neovanglistlet me look at my code, I can't remember exactly what the difference are
16:43:41markunNeovanglist: can you post a 'svn diff' somewhere?
16:44:25Neovanglistlike I said, I didn't actually stick a lot of my code in that lcd driver file itself as not to break the rest of rockbox, I was just using my own lcd controller and drawing routines in my plugin, but they are doing the same things the lcd driver is
16:44:34Neovanglistsetting up the regs, pushing data, etc
16:44:47linuxstbI guess the broadcom chip does whatever the firmware it is running is programmed to do. IIUC, that firmware is stored in the ipod's flash ROM and loaded onto the broadcom chip by the Apple bootloader (also in flash rom)
16:44:51Neovanglistso they would have to be worked in still, and like was said above, a lot of the gain may have been api bypassing
16:45:09Neovanglistah, so the dsp is microcoded?
16:45:20B4gdercoded at least
16:45:25linuxstbIt's just a general-purpose processor with video DSP features iiuc.
16:45:43linuxstbIt could probably run the ipod by itself...
16:46:04markun:)
16:46:27Neovanglistwell the reason I brought up dev is because I was interested in starting a collaborative group documentation/reversing effort on ipod
16:46:30Neovanglistwith the linux guys as well
16:46:40Neovanglistso we can build a real register map for both chips, and etc
16:47:10linuxstbThere's lots of interest in the portalplayer chips amongst the Rockbox devs, but I'm not sure if anyone cares about the Broadcom chip - it's only used in one target.
16:47:26NeovanglistI am looking into doing a low level platform sdk for the 5g, similar to ps2sdk (ps2dev.org) for homebrew coding
16:47:34Neovanglistand would like to share efforts as far as research goes
16:47:43Neovanglistsince I can't really use any of your code in my own stuff
16:47:54linuxstbYou're not going to GPL it?
16:47:56B4gder"any" ?
16:48:01amiconnNeovanglist: If you run video without the finishup delay it will most likely work because the frame decoding guarantees some delay between lcd updates. That no longer hold if you use it for general stuff
16:48:11B4gderso you're writing a new OS too?
16:48:13Neovanglistthe ps2sdk/pspsdk/etc stuff is traditionally AFL
16:48:22Neovanglistand AFL is not GPL compat due to some technicalities
16:48:38Neovanglistwell the ps2 environment is more just like some low level support stuff you link into your ELF
16:48:44Neovanglistit's mostly used for game/demo coding
16:48:54B4gdereh, you can't mix anything that isn't GPL compatible with Rockbox
16:49:08Neovanglistoh, well if I was commiting to rockbox I would GPL it myself of course
16:49:13Neovanglistbut I'm porting the ps2dev framework to ipod
16:49:14B4gdergoodie
16:49:14Neovanglistwhich is AFL
16:49:26Neovanglistit's for a different use/purpose than rockbox
16:49:28linuxstbThat sounds like a nasty license headache...
16:49:42Neovanglistyea, but that decision was a long time ago :)
16:49:42B4gderNeovanglist: what exactly is the purpose?
16:49:52NeovanglistB4gder: homebrew/demo code
16:49:57Neovanglistand general platform experiementation
16:49:59Neovanglistcheck out ps2dev.org
16:50:19Neovanglistthe 5.5G really has a lot of hardware that could be used
16:50:20B4gderwell, rockbox is also for "homebrew", just not demo
16:50:21linuxstbSo it basically means you have to write _everything_ from scratch - you can't take any IPL or Rockbox code...
16:50:28Neovanglistand is interesting for the same reason PSP, etc is
16:50:51B4gdersounds like a ... lot of duplicate work
16:50:59Neovanglistlinuxstb: sure, but this is nothing different from me than while doing PS2SDK and PSPSDK, etc :)
16:51:11Neovanglistit's not going to be an OS, just some lightweight libs to let you bootstrap and runs ELFs
16:51:16Neovanglist*run
16:51:18linuxstbAs B4gder said, a lot of duplicated work...
16:51:28Neovanglistand yes, it is, but I don't think it's too bad
16:51:36NeovanglistI already have a lot of AFL code to base it on
16:51:38Neovanglistfrom GBA and such
16:51:48NeovanglistI'm mostly just interested in getting a good community documentation project going

16:52:56B4gderI must agree I don't follow you

16:53:05B4gderuh, admit

16:53:13linuxstbIt would just seem simpler to have a reference codebase...

16:54:11Neovanglistlinuxstb: ?
16:54:27Neovanglistdocumentation is documentation, code created with info from it should not be license tainted in that way...
16:54:38Neovanglistthe documentation could be under BSD license for all I care
16:54:40Neovanglistwhich is compat with both
16:55:34Neovanglistbottom line is I'd just like to make some docs which have stuff like the CPU, DMA, Cache, Memory Map, Registers, etc documented to the best of our ability :)
16:55:42Neovanglistso that myself and others can use them to create new cool stuff on the platform.

16:56:41Forte2lol help
16:56:53Neovanglisthaven't talked to them yet, intend to do so in the next day or two
16:57:21NeovanglistI'm in the process of setting up a site/wiki as part of the ps2dev network which can be used for collaboration and some initial documentation work
16:58:40B4gderwhat's wrong with our or ipl's existing wikis?
16:59:10B4gderusing ipl's wiki would probably be suitable, seeing as they started the low level hunt
16:59:18Neovanglistwell I didn't find much updated information there :)
16:59:35Forte2im pissed
16:59:35Neovanglistthey have a memory map but it doesn't look right from what I can tell
16:59:36B4gderI don't think there are may low-level iplers
16:59:38markunNeovanglist: but because it's a wiki you can do that yourself :)
16:59:39Forte2my ipod died
16:59:44Forte2both of them
16:59:56markunForte2: weird, what did you do to them?
17:00
17:00:13Forte2i plugged the mini in
17:00:17Neovanglistmarkun: sure, but I'm not totally sure about what is going on yet myself :)
17:00:18Forte2and it killed the video
17:00:21Forte2dunno how
17:00:22Forte2but it did
17:00:37markunthe mini killed the video?
17:00:44Forte2yeah
17:00:49Forte2now the video wont even boot past the apple
17:01:01Neovanglistfor example, there is a lot of stuff like lcd_bcm_read32(0x1F8);... so what is 0x1F8... someone must know what it is :)
17:01:15NeovanglistI've documented some of the 0x3xxxxxxx range stuff myself
17:01:35Neovanglistbut that was just the obivious stuff from reading existing code
17:01:42linuxstbNeovanglist: It's just that there's a lot more to understanding the hardware than listing registers - sharing code is far more productive. But I understand why you're not using the GPL.
17:01:57Neovanglistsure
17:02:10Neovanglistwell if people would be interested in using it, I could make my own low level hardware code BSD licensed
17:02:14Neovanglistinstead of AFL
17:02:17Neovanglistsince that's AFL and GPL compat
17:02:39Neovanglistand try to make it in a way that it's usable as a hardware interface library for other projects
17:02:53linuxstbI assume the issue is that the people using your library aren't open source people?
17:03:07Neovanglistwell, lots are
17:03:08B4gderI don't see much benefit for Rockbox at the end of this
17:03:21markunB4gder: but no loss either
17:03:25Neovanglistfor example if you look at ps2dev there are quite a lot of other open projects in SVN
17:03:31Neovanglistbut with demo coding for example
17:03:42Neovanglistit's quite customary to just release an executable for the demo competition and that's it
17:03:46B4gdermarkun: it depends if lots of energy and time is spent on it by Rockbox people instead of doing other good things
17:03:53Neovanglistwell
17:03:57Neovanglistthe documentation benefits everyone
17:04:36markunNeovanglist: if you buy a Gigabeat you don't need to worry so much about secret hardware :)
17:04:43 Quit Forte (Connection timed out)
17:04:44Neovanglistand if there is working license agnostic reference code as a library, then that is also helpful :)
17:05:02Neovanglistmarkun: well the neat thing about stuff like the pspdev/ps2dev projects is that there are tons of people who have the hardware right now and can start playing with things
17:05:11NeovanglistI agree that open embedded platforms rock
17:06:04markunwell, it wasn't exactly an open platform, but most of the documentation could be found online
17:06:20Neovanglistnod
17:07:11Neovanglistalso, as was with the ps2/psp dev communities, once we had a way to start running code and a basic sdk for them to use, we got a large amount of people doing their own apps/demos/games with that code, and ultimately contributing information back into the community
17:08:31B4gderI would rather see Rockbox be that platform to run things upon
17:08:49***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
17:08:50B4gderwouldn't even be limited to just some ipods
17:08:56Neovanglistyes but you must understand that your development model is quite different then this other one :)
17:09:10Neovanglistthis stuff is all about going bare metal and pushing the most out of the hardware for fun/learning
17:09:11B4gderI don't think that needs to be an issue
17:09:18linuxstbThat's very different to Rockbox though - we support so many devices, there's no time to try and squeeze every last cycle out of every platform...
17:09:28Neovanglistsure, which is totally understandable :)
17:09:48B4gderhaving people around who did that would improve rockbox on such targets

19:23:52amiconnjhMikeS: The problem is that the plugin loader uses an assumption for its bss clearing which no longer holds as soon as the plugin is using iram for code or (constant) initialized data
19:24:42amiconn...because the area in the plugin that holds the iram content is re-used for bss after copying the stuff to iram
19:24:47jhMikeSamiconn: so what is to be done? can this be fixed quickly?
19:25:21 Quit linuxstb_ (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
19:25:22amiconnI think the best fix would be to introduce another field in the plugin header that specifies the start of bss
19:25:23jhMikeSok, so why was that left that when the data was recycled for bss?
19:26:35jhMikeSso that means a new variable in the linker script?
19:26:35amiconnThis change could (and imho should) go with another change that I was planning to do for quite a while now: use the 4-letter target id (used in our swcodec bootloaders) instead of the current (arbitrary and unrelated) numeric id
19:26:58SliMMwhy can't be the plugins be compiled separatly?

19:27:58amiconn..and use memcmp() for comparing the loadable type (plugin, codec etc) instead of direct comparison of the magic value (which makes it look weird in a hex editor for little endian targets - it's backwards)
19:28:44amiconn'make' only compiles changed sources anyway. I don't think you'll save much time (says someone who uses slowish cygwin for building rockbox)
19:29:08SliMMjhMikeS: that is one of my dreams to
19:29:34jhMikeSit would help to have that cause sometimes it gets a lot of turnaround trying to probe for a bug

19:30:45SliMMyes, it does, but it is pretty difficult (at least for beginners such as myself) to figure out how to compile the whole OS, apply patches etc.

19:33:44jhMikeSamiconn: so the iram content is just part of the normal bss section now and a start and end can be linked and used to zero it correct?
19:34:06amiconnHmm....
19:34:16amiconnIn fact an extra field in the plugin header won't help
19:34:40amiconnWith iram, the loader must not clear bss because that would wipe out the iram content prematurely
19:34:49amiconnSeems we need a proper plugin_crt0
19:35:05jhMikeScan't do it in the iram init?
19:36:11jhMikeSat first I just want to see if clearing that has anything to do with the bug
19:36:26amiconntry it, it should probably work
19:36:49amiconnIt could also be a different problem: something using bss _before_ iram init
19:36:53*jhMikeS enters some new rb aspects now
19:37:50amiconnThat's why I suggested a proper crt0, which would be asm like the core crt0

19:42:23amiconnpfft. 'make' on an up-to-date build dir takes just 1.5 sec on linux. On cygwin it's longer though, roughly 30 seconds

19:45:02amiconnjhMikeS: Hmm, it should, but there's still the problem in the loader
19:45:21jhMikeSLlorean: they don't have to, they _can_ offer to decline it
19:45:24amiconnIf the iram section is larger than bss, the plugin loader calls memset() with a negative count
19:45:55amiconn...which makes it go bananas. At least the arm version will still write some bytes somewhere
19:46:35jhMikeSthe size_t is unsigned so there is no negative ;)
19:46:42LloreanjhMikeS: Ah, so the option is "Stop playback, or don't run the plugin" I thought you meant "don't stop playback while still running the plugin"
19:47:03amiconnTell that to memset ;)
19:47:03LloreanMy brain's not working in order yet.
19:47:17amiconnAnd if it would be interpreted as unsigned, the effect would be even worse
19:47:59amiconnA solution that doesn't require changing headers could consist of 2 parts:
19:48:16jhMikeSobvious enough to make it get fixed sooner :)
19:48:18amiconn(1) make all plugins using iram overwrite the iramcopy with zeroes after copying
19:48:58amiconn(2) let the loader check for count < 0, and not call memset if so
19:49:01jhMikeS1) is normal procedure afaik
19:49:37jhMikeSPlugins using IRAM are just suppose to use the two macros and forget about it
19:49:38amiconnAfaik it's not

20:01:39Learamiconn: main reason for slow Cygwin build is now svnversion, so I update docs/VERSION on svn update, thus avoiding that.
20:02:41amiconnHow often is that called? If it's once per build, I wouldn't care...
20:03:37LloreanjhMikeS: I did too on my Sansa. I managed to get another video to play eventually, though I was trying different things to do it, and never figured out what worked.

20:14:32Zeze21is there any way to reset my ipod`
20:14:34Zeze21?
20:14:42SliMMdon't do that
20:14:49LloreanZeze21: The standard menu+select, then select+Play for disk mode works for getting back to disk mode.
20:14:50SliMMjust try an older build
20:15:19LloreanZeze21: But the best is to hold Right while trying booting rockbox to see what the error message is.
20:15:20Zeze21ok llorean from there i can use it to get another build?
20:15:31SliMMllorean: svn update under vmware player for updating sources?
20:15:38LloreanZeze21: If you're using an up to date build, we need to know what the error message is.
20:15:45Zeze21how long?
20:15:53SliMMthere is no error message
20:16:01SliMMthere is just the apple logo
20:16:05LloreanSliMM: No error message displays unless you hold right.
20:16:11amiconnhuh?
20:16:21amiconnShouldn't errors still display?

20:16:48Zeze21and nothin appears but the aplle logo...
20:16:50LloreanZeze21: When did you start holding it during the boot process.
20:17:10Zeze21as soon as the apple logo came up
20:17:40Zeze21still nothing...
20:17:45LloreanZeze21: As soon as the logo showed on screen, before backlight?
20:17:52Zeze21yes

20:18:09Zeze21ipod video 5.5
20:18:13SliMManyone? is 'svn update' for updating the rockbox sources?
20:18:15amiconnIf it's an 80GB it won't work, as stated on the rockbox frontpage
20:18:23Zeze21ohoh
20:18:28LloreanSliMM: svn update is for updating anything checked out with SVN
20:18:43Zeze21it is an 80
20:18:56SliMMof course :)
20:19:01Zeze21i didn't see that
20:19:09Zeze21so how can i undo that?

20:37:05amiconntoni1: I talked with jhMikeS about this problem earlier today
20:37:30amiconnIt's enough to check for a negative count in the plugin loader, and not call memset in this case
20:37:41amiconnplugin_iram_init will do the rest
20:38:04toni1amiconn: Ah ok. I didn't notice that.

20:39:27jhMikeSthough the mpegplayer troubles don't seem related to a negative size issue either
20:39:50toni1amiconn: I did the negative check here + some clearing of bss data in the plugin. It works fine in front of plugin_iram_init, but not after.
20:40:15amiconnYou don't need to change anything in the plugin itself
20:41:03 Quit Jon-Kha (Read error: 145 (Connection timed out))
20:41:17toni1What I don't understand, why is the result so different (simply setting some globals before and after plugin_iram_init?
20:41:30jhMikeSthere are no caching issues regarding the iram for code either?
20:41:44amiconnThe iram isn't cached
20:41:54jhMikeSwhat about the bss clear?
20:42:40amiconnThat's not code
20:44:00jhMikeStrue, not an issue for CF...but what about PP and the data?
20:44:33amiconnWell, when the cpu clears bss, it writes to the cache as well, so this is always consistent
20:45:11jhMikeSand the second core should have no knowledge yet of the data...but like I said...no core issue here...argh
20:45:41amiconntoni1: if (plugin_size > readsize) memset(pluginbuf + readsize, 0, plugin_size - readsize);
20:46:14toni1amiconn: Yeah, that was also my solution.

20:49:43toni1before: video runs fine several times but without audio; after: no video/audio at all
20:49:49amiconnYou must not set (bss) globals before plugin_iram_init
20:50:25 Quit Ribs ("Ex-Chat")
20:50:39toni1That explains it.
20:50:39jhMikeStoni1: video with frame sync? without audio, frame sync should hang
20:51:01amiconnThis will cause 2 bad things, since bss space is shared with iramcopy: (1) The init will overwrite some data/code that's not yet moved to iram. (2) your inited global will be wiped by plugin_iram_init
20:51:16toni1jhMikeS: video with some audio glitch at the start, then silence.
20:51:32jhMikeSwhich player?
20:51:35toni1sansa
20:51:47jhMikeS?? i haven't gotten that one
20:52:07jhMikeSbut the frames keep playing?
20:52:18jhMikeSwith sync on I mean
20:52:19toni1yes, exactly.
20:52:42toni1if it is the default, then yes.
20:52:58jhMikeSwell, that means audio stopped decoding for some reason...then pcm just sends silence

21:44:54webguest32Hi
21:45:24Genre9mp3Llorean: It's quite irritating especially when you notice on the specs that it's not UDA1380's fault (according to the specs it has quite high SNR)
21:45:32LloreanjhMikeS: It may just be an aspect of the screen. It used to do a crash where it would "fade to black" and it faded through purple to eventually reach a dark purple/blackish color.
21:46:22LloreanGenre9mp3: Fortunately it only bothers me with one set of headphones, and usually not in the conditions that I need to use them (lots of background noise anyway)
21:47:11Genre9mp3I wonder what iriver did wrong on this and if it's possible to correct it
21:48:28Genre9mp3and it's the same on both H100 and H300

22:05:50lutherxHi everyone! I'm considering installing rockbox but would like to know if it supports embedded cue sheet on FLAC
22:06:09markunlutherx: I don't think it does
22:08:00lutherxmarkun: ok, thanks. Little bit of a bummer. My files are all in FLAC so I imagine I'll have to put them on the iPod with diskmode. Does anyone know if rockbox databases the files similar to apple's firmware or will I have to browse directories?
22:08:05Lloreanlutherx: CUE sheets are expected to be separate files, with the same filename but different extension.

22:11:18BagderI've used my nick spelled this way for... 20 years
22:11:34blistov_i normally run johnbuild, which gives me 7 hours, and i keep having to revert back to it because all the newer firmware gives me less than 2 hours.
22:12:39markunblistov_: if people were only getting 2 hours on ipods I think we would have known
22:12:49Lloreanblistov_: A) Please don't ask about unsupported builds. B) Nobody else has reported this with official builds.
22:13:19LloreanPretty much every time someone's said the battery life is very short compared to before, a bench test has shown that their estimation skills were the problem.
22:13:39linuxstb__lutherx: Adding support for embedded cuesheets in Rockbox shouldn't be that hard. But I'm curious, how do you tag the tracks? Or don't you?

22:54:31LloreanHow does it compare to the older official build?
22:54:44jhMikeSpossible I goofed the largest frame size calculation and it's not picking up an empty queue
22:54:58blistov_The older official build was still slower than johnbuild of the same date.
22:55:06jhMikeSall audio there is MPEG audio though
22:55:09Lloreanblistov_: "slower" where?
22:55:17LloreanjhMikeS: Yeah, but MP3 shows up as MP3 in these programs.
22:55:21LloreanSo I assume mp2 or mp1
22:55:33LloreanWhatever those denote.
22:55:46blistov_Llorean, scrolling is choppy, and retarded, playback skips with crossfeed and eq enabled while scrolling.
22:55:48Lloreanblistov_: The johnbuild used a scrolling acceleration patch, so UI speed isn't indicative of anything.
22:55:49jhMikeSprbably frame size...can you check that?
22:56:20LloreanjhMikeS: Any suggestion how to check that?

22:57:37blistov_it acts like an interrupt. every time the cpu swithes frequencies (every 3/4 second) the scrolling locks for about 100ms)

22:58:08 Join PaulJam_ [0] (i=Paul@vpn-3015.gwdg.de)
22:58:38blistov_my major point here, is that the official build requires 75MHz just for playback, where the old johnbuild rairly ever hit 75.
22:58:40Lloreanblistov_: "Choppier" is hardly a technical term, so I have to guess what you mean by it.
22:59:17Lloreanblistov_: And if you think the johnbuild has a patch that actually affects playback speed, feel free to isolate it.
22:59:19blistov_Choppier. Input scrolling stops for between 100 and 200 ms every 750ms
23:00
23:00:12LloreanDoes the johnbuild use the COP patch?
23:00:15blistov_i've had this problem with every official build i've used. I've seen it on other peoples installs as well, they just dont' notice because they're used to it.
23:00:19blistov_No.
23:00:29blistov_it does (or at least did not) use COP patch
23:00:51blistov_and again, my cpu freq is 30mhz solid, during playback, even up to a 196k file
23:00:58LloreanI mean, it's very hard for me to know anything since you're arbitrarily referencing an unofficial build I know almost nothing about let alone where to investigate.
23:01:00blistov_mp3 rather
23:01:21LloreanA build you don't know the build date of, or anything.
23:01:52LloreanSo it's very hard for me to get more useful information from you, since you seem to like repeating "It works better" and not telling me any more.
23:02:01Bagderblistov_: I must agree with Llorean that without more specific details, this is interesting info but very hard to work with
23:02:23LloreanClearly we've established "johnbuild works better than the current build at the time" but since you don't know what the time was, I don't know how you've established this
23:02:23blistov_I'm sorry I haven't been more specific yet.
23:02:25blistov_I can be.
23:02:25H10_007quickAceNik: what do you mean pvt?
23:02:45blistov_again, i'm not working on development for rockbox. i have too many other projects on the go.
23:02:46LloreanAs well, you haven't told us how OUR build at the time compares to our current build.
23:03:00blistov_what is YOUR build?

23:03:11blistov_oh. same problem.
23:03:16 Quit lutherx ("CGI:IRC (Ping timeout)")
23:03:20LloreanSo, in other words, Rockbox hasn't gotten worse?
23:03:41LloreanBecause your official presentation suggested that Rockbox's performance had degraded since the old build, not that the old build had something making it better.
23:03:50blistov_I can't say. I haven't actually benchmarked each release against the previous.
23:04:20LloreanAlso, again, I repeat my request for knowing where on Earth this "johnbuild" is from, and what patches it contains.
23:04:27LloreanAs well as having you actually check the build date / version string.
23:04:35blistov_What I do know with definity, is that johnbuild 1.2 plays mp3's at the same bitrate as the current build and the official build, but johnbuild does it on 30mhz where the latter require 75
23:04:47blistov_i cant check the build date.
23:04:51Lloreanblistov_: The official build runs at a constant 75mhz for you?
23:04:59Bagderblistov_: why not?

23:10:30LloreanScrolling in the menu isn't a valid basis of comparison between the two.

23:16:15blistov_boost ratio is about 40%
23:16:27Lloreanblistov_: That means 40% of the time it's running at 75mhz
23:16:41blistov_why isn't it showing that in the frequency?
23:16:58LloreanMaybe johnbuild has a bug

23:17:19blistov_i guess. its still running longer, and smoother though.
23:17:28blistov_I"m just trying to figure out why.
23:17:39LloreanHave you done an actual battery benchmark?
23:17:43blistov_i'd LOVE to have that performance on a moore recent build.
23:17:46blistov_no.
23:17:49blistov_not recently.
23:17:52Bagderwell, comparing with an official from the same date would be a start, and then checking the patches it has applied
23:18:05LloreanBagder: I'd like to see actual battery benchmarks first.
23:18:18blistov_i ran it last night under the newest release, it ran for 3 hours.
23:18:20Bagderyes, that's a good idea
23:18:22LloreanCompare the voltage drop over time.
23:18:39blistov_played the exact same playlist after reverting to johnbuild, and it was still going this moring, 8 hours later
23:18:46blistov_hrm...
23:19:48LloreanjhMikeS: Compiling one now.
23:20:05jhMikeSok
23:20:55LloreanUm
23:21:07LloreanDid someone enable the button LEDs on gigabeat while I wasn't paying attention?
23:21:24jhMikeSit has those?
23:21:27LloreanYup
23:21:40jhMikeSwell, they should be enabled then
23:21:42LloreanMIne were just on..
23:21:51LloreanHm
23:22:05LloreanAnd after a reboot, but they went out with the backlight and didn't come back. I'll investigate that later

23:23:14Roriwhat's the link to the daily builds again?
23:23:31LloreanRori: Look at the front page of the site.
23:23:42LloreanYou shouldn't be using Dailies unless the Current build doesn't work for you
23:24:13Roriit doesn't
23:24:19RoriI get a data error
23:24:39Llorean"Data error"?
23:24:42LloreanDo you mean Data Abort?
23:25:24Roriyes
23:25:56Rorihmm overwriting with older build does not cure makes things worse. Knackered my settings now
23:25:57LloreanjhMikeS: It doesn't fix it. Could it be more general naughtiness related to that improper size problem you and amiconn were discussing (the one I don't really understand:))
23:26:09LloreanRori: Are you on an iPod?
23:26:33Rorinano
23:26:36Rori1g
23:26:47LloreanRori: And when did you install or last update your bootloader?
23:27:56Roriages ago
23:27:59jhMikeSLlorean: was a false alarm
23:28:20LloreanjhMikeS: The reporting of the wrong size was?
23:28:44bluebrotherRori: you need a recent bootloader. Update it with ipodpatcher
23:28:49jhMikeSin the ibss init, yes. he didn't notice the fact it was zeroed in plugin_iram_init
23:29:15LloreanjhMikeS: But I thought that was confirmed as the cause of one of the audio problems the sansa had in mpegplayer...
23:29:22LloreanThe one Toni had talked about
23:29:26LloreanOr am I combining problems?
23:29:35jhMikeSHe recanted I believe
23:29:52LloreanAh
23:30:00LloreanWell, MP3 audio works fine, "mpeg audio" sounds funny
23:30:07Roriwhere's the updated bootloader and patcher?
23:30:11LloreanIt has a lot of noise.
23:30:16jhMikeSnoise like what?
23:30:20LloreanRori: Just follow the instructions in the manual
23:30:28LloreanjhMikeS: Kinda little high pitched pops and buzzes.
23:30:41LloreanAnd squeeks.

23:31:19Rorithe wesbite is still a nightmare to navigate
23:31:29Rorican't find jack
23:31:32LloreanRori: If you can't find "Manual" on the front page, and click it, I'm surprised you can't install.
23:31:37LloreanEr surprised you can install.
23:31:52Roriyer
23:31:56peturRori: how about that manual link on the left menu?
23:32:03jhMikeSLlorean: if you could test one more thing: MPEG_GUARDBUF_SIZE - just crank up the size on it...I dunno...add a few KB to it if you could...something 4bytes aligned
23:32:11LloreanRori: How can we improve a link labelled "manual" on the front page of the site, to make it less nightmarish, if I may ask?
23:32:28LloreanjhMikeS: Okay, it'll be 3 or 4 minutes, but sure.

23:32:58jhMikeSthat's fine. I wanna know what makes the fiq so touchy in that changing anything makes audio choppy
23:33:21LloreanThe audio isn't choppy, I don't think. It seems to be all there, just with extras.
23:34:19jhMikeSwell, in general...altering things in any way seems to make the fifos underrun...but there's a problem starting pcm playback that is the reason for the black screen

23:54:00WolfBloodThanks!
23:54:05Roriit reads off the incorrect menu's
23:54:17bluebrotherhey Rori, do you have a recent voice file?
23:54:20LloreanRori: Odds are you got an outdated one.

23:54:27petur23:52 <WolfBlood>Doesn't tell me.
23:54:32Roriyeah where is the updated?
23:54:44bluebrotherthe voice file needs to match the build, but voice files aren't updated regularly
23:54:59Roriic
23:55:00bluebrotherbtw, what happened to that auto-generated voice files? Still in the works?
23:55:03Rorilets try a new build

23:57:20Rorihey is rockbox.opid needed in the root anymore?
23:57:26RoriI see there is one in the .rockbox folder
23:57:30bluebrotherI don't know it, just wanted to mention that the file date should help picking a "good" one
23:57:38Rorirockbox.ipod
23:57:46bluebrotherno, that file got moved recently. You can safely delete the one in the root
23:57:52Roricool
23:58:13bluebrother(unless your bootloader is quite old, but in that case you would experience data aborts)
23:58:22*bluebrother preferred that file to be in the root
23:58:36*petur doesn't
23:58:43Roristill get a battery on disconnection of the USB and have to force a reboot
23:58:44peturit should never have been in the root
