00:59:26robI was woundering, If i install rock box then will it delet everything on my ipod and or also make it imposible for me to get back to the normal ipod menu?
00:59:34LeetlandonNope.
00:59:36rob*delete
00:59:57LeetlandonYou install it, and it makes a folder and a file that makes it boot it.
00:59:57robSo i can choose to boot rock box or normal ipod
01:00
01:00:16LeetlandonTo boot into the normal mode you just hold << right after you power on.
01:00:20LeetlandonYep.
01:00:29robkk
01:00:42joshinAccording to the wiki for the e2xx series, someone is working on getting the FM radio working but it doesn't say who. Is it a secret? :)
01:00:58robAlso for the games can it suport emulators and roms?
01:01:09joshinThat's what I'd be interested in poking at but don't want to start working on it if it is almost done.
01:01:22chrisjs169joshin: I guess so :)
01:01:42chrisjs169hmm
01:02:00chrisjs169....if only the e200 build would compile for me.....
01:02:08joshinchrisjs169: so you're the volunteer? Or did everyone take a step back when the devs were lined up so that you'd get stuck with it
01:02:30LeetlandonHmm?
01:02:38chrisjs169joshin: i don't program :P
01:03:11chrisjs169i originally came here trying to figure out why this compile isn't working, but ended up forgetting about it
01:03:37joshinAah. You were referring to the 'secret' part and not admitting that you were working on getting the tuner working. Stupid sleep adled brain.

01:07:38chrisjs169for my compile issue, i know it's my fault, because when i download and compile all of it myself, it's fine, but when i start modifying files it messes up
01:08:07joshinLeetlandon: what patch command are you running?
01:08:18LeetlandonCygwin

01:18:46leftrightthanks, I'll try that
01:18:58robwhere do i place the patch file?
01:19:09robto get idoom to work
01:19:29amiconnleftright: If a build is currently running, not all download links work. You can see that if you refresh the page, the link is gone then
01:19:46amiconnIt will be back after a few minutes, depending on how long the build takes
01:19:54chrisjs169usually takes around 6 mins or so
01:20:13*amiconn just committed an AIFF fix, that's why a build was running :)
01:20:22chrisjs169all except source code is up
01:20:36robi_video patch, is that what i need to get idoom to work?
01:20:40leftrightaha, thanks amiconn, bad timing on my behalf
01:21:37pixelmarob: I believe idoom is part of the ipodlinux project. If you are interested in rockbox's implementation I suggest reading http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/PluginDOom?topic=%5EPluginDoom

01:31:20barrywardellwell, it's still called ata-e200.c, but I guess that's a bit of a misnomer :P
01:32:43barrywardellI was thinking it would be worth checking if those changes would help the ipod's battery consumption too
01:33:03barrywardellit would be a good test for someone with an ipod to do
01:33:51amiconnLCD controller shutdown makes no sense iiuc
01:34:11amiconnOn the greyscale ipods anyway, and people say the 5G LCD is readable w/o backlight
01:34:49robI cant get doom to work what the fuck like im so confused im looking at http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/PluginDOom?topic=%5EPluginDoom i made the new folder for doom and i added the .wad file it has here to dowload
01:34:52barrywardellbut in the FS task, toni claims it saves 12mA. I think that makes it worthwhile
01:34:54roband i get a plugin error
01:35:13*amiconn wonders whether the ATA controller actually enables the controller, or whether it's in fact ATA power...
01:35:35amiconn12mA just for the lcd controller sounds wrong...
01:36:19barrywardellthat's what he claims anyway. I haven't done measurements myself
01:36:49chrisjs169what's up with the source build? it's been almost 20 mins now, and it hasn't appeared on the builds page

03:36:02TrueJournalsLeetlandon: That doesn't really help... I'm guessing the patch isn't patching cleanly? Which patch is it?
03:36:36Leetlandonhttp://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/6467
03:36:48LeetlandonDoom scroll wheel patch.
03:36:55LeetlandonSorry, had trouble finding the patch code.
03:37:21TrueJournalsProbably just out of date... you can try applying the failed hunks by yourself
03:37:35LeetlandonHow?
03:37:54TrueJournalsWell, first, I should ask if you applied any other patches before trying to apply that one?
03:38:11LeetlandonNope, this is the first one.
03:38:22LeetlandonIve read all the documentations.
03:38:46TrueJournalsOK... in that case... I'll tell you how to apply the failed hunks manually. It's useful to know if it ever happens with another patch
03:38:58LeetlandonThanks!
03:39:15TrueJournalsIt should give you a list of files that failed and say it created a reject file at (filename).rej
03:39:36LeetlandonYep
03:40:08TrueJournalssimple open that file, open the original file... now, this will show the code. In the .rej file, any line that does not have a + or - before it should be in the original code. Any line with a - should be removed from the original code, and any line with a + should be added to the original code
03:40:31TrueJournalsLook for a line before a + or -, and search for it in the original code, then, add or remove the lines accordingly
03:40:42LeetlandonOrigninal code?
03:40:53LeetlandonOh, the C file?
03:40:55TrueJournalsOriginal code = original file (filename)
03:40:58TrueJournalsyes
03:42:18TrueJournalsNow, once you apply it manually, it should compile and work fine... If it doesn't, then something major in the code was changed. Post on the tracker saying that the patch is out of date, and hopefully someone will fix it for you (but it might take a couple of days)
03:46:42LeetlandonShould I modify the original with the patch data?
03:47:14TrueJournalsyes, add the lines that start with + and remove the lines that start with -
03:47:22LeetlandonAlright, got it.
03:47:26LeetlandonThanks a bunch.
03:47:36TrueJournalsNo problem
03:47:38TrueJournalsgood luck
03:48:14LeetlandonAlright, compilling.

07:43:20amiconnjhMikeS: It was not the spec itself which said that the COMM chunk can be larger than 18(+8) bytes, but an article explaining the aiff format. It states that while a standard COMM chunk is 18 bytes, a parser should tolerate a longer one because of possible format extensions
07:44:08amiconnjhMikeS: And btw, apple has the aiff specs online: http://developer.apple.com/documentation/mac/Sound/Sound-61.html
07:44:43amiconnWe could also support AIFF-C (AIFC) files, at least the type with no compression
07:45:34amiconn(a quite common limitation for audio programs supporting AIFC)
07:48:01JdGordonamiconn: how many codecs do we have which need the whole buffer in one block to work? just midi?
07:52:01amiconnCurrently none.
07:52:19amiconnmidi as a codec would need even more than just the whole midi file at once

07:53:47amiconnI think we should, but midi is even more special, as I said
07:54:08amiconnI can't think of a nice solution for supporting midi in the playback system
07:56:31JdGordonIm starting to lean towards a memory layout with a block section and then a ring buffer after that, both being able to be resized fairly easily so those codecs would just resize the block section to the size they need and the playback engine would then buffer into the ring untill the block can be shrunk again (it would also be used for the current tracks Mob also)...
07:56:45 Quit himitsu (Read error: 111 (Connection refused))
07:56:47amiconnPractically all the mod formats need the whole file at once. SID is an example, and so the sid codec has to copy them. It copies them to a n own, static buffer, and since sid files are small, this always works
07:56:48JdGordonthats about as far as I've thought about it.. so its rough :p
07:57:43amiconnBut for other mod format this won't work. It's this copying that limits the maximum mod size to 400-something KB for the mod codec in the tracker
07:58:28amiconnEven some ProTracker mods exceed this, and ImpulseTracker mods are usually much bigger
07:59:15JdGordonwhats the general maximum one of these files would get to? 1mb? 5mb?
07:59:48amiconnThere is no general maximum. I've seen ImpulseTracker mods >6MB, but there might be even larger ones

10:35:40B4gderwell, perhaps the manufactorers can't get the codecs and other stuff for it
10:36:08B4gderneuros for example went TI/arm for it being the cheapest
10:36:40B4gderi mean there are many different parameters for the selection

11:39:24pondlifeJust be via simpler and more protective interfaces.
11:39:45JdGordonok, well yeah, thats sort of worked out in my ead also
11:40:01pondlifeI can't say I understand the whole thing at the moment myself :(
11:40:58JdGordonI think I've got it mostly figured out... playback.c would be very much simpler
11:41:12pondlifewiki it?

11:41:49pondlifeThanks to LinusN I've got a working H300 again, so I'm a bit less frightened of playing with playback now...
11:41:59JdGordon:)
11:42:19pondlifeI didn't think "It works on the sim" was a good reason to break playback ;)
11:42:47pondlife(Plus I now owe the project some work...)
11:47:10JdGordonI'm scared that I'm going to wiki up thte whole idea, then have someone say I got the whole current playback system wrong so it wont work :p
11:47:44JdGordonoh, can the hard disk be turned off if a fd is kept open?
11:48:12pondlifeI would think so, but you could always write a test plugin

13:41:44croppetur: yes. I mean, the main thing is not described −− how to navigate RB. Those who could write the manual are familiar with RB and don't need it. Hence no interest in writing.

13:48:45B4gderAceNik: "can't find file to patch at input line 3614" sounds pretty descriptive to me...
13:49:16B4gderit even shows the path
13:52:22PaulJamcrop: the SimpleGuideToCompiling wiki page suggests using the −−binary option. but i'm not sure why.

14:18:04DooMMasteRmorning neighbour
14:18:04intgrHello, this doesnt' seem to be addressed in the FAQ: which MP3 player should I buy if I don't want to support non-evil manufacturers, and want to run Rockbox on it?
14:18:22intgrErr, don't want to support evil manufacturers :)
14:18:46Guileach, ich mag deutschland
14:18:49B4gderthen buy from the non-evil ones
14:18:50preglowwhat is evil in this context?
14:19:14intgrDRM is a certain sign of evilness.
14:19:16DooMMasteRapples pid's are not RoHS conform
14:19:26B4gderthey're not?
14:19:28DooMMasteRthey dropped DRM partly
14:19:38DooMMasteRnope
14:19:40intgr<B4dger> then buy from the non-evil ones
14:19:41DooMMasteRnot yet
14:19:45intgrThat was pretty much my question.
14:19:59B4gderI thought you had to be Rohs compliant in europe
14:19:59intgrWhich ones should I consider?

14:20:37B4gderintgr: and exclude the ones you think are evil ;-)
14:20:48B4gdermost companies support DRM in one way or another
14:21:19DooMMasteRi would try the sansa.....
14:21:25intgrRight.
14:21:44DooMMasteRbecause (maybe) it will become expandable
14:21:49DooMMasteR(mini sd cards)
14:21:55B4gdermaybe?

14:22:59DooMMasteRand that is a nice feature

14:25:56DooMMasteRand not cheap

14:26:23jimbooh my "thats not good" was refering to not being able to fforward movies
14:26:27*B4gder likes his X5
14:26:45DooMMasteRbut it is a jukebox...if you are looking for something with more than 10GB storage....that would be my first choice
14:26:57amiconnBeing HDD based can be counted as an advantage, depending on what you want to use your dap for
14:27:02intgrWhy would I want a HDD?
14:27:16amiconnThere are simply no flash players with 30GB+ yet
14:27:29DooMMasteRI'll get rid of the HDD in my mini as fast as possible
14:27:36DooMMasteR16GB flash are a lot better
14:28:14DooMMasteR^^^don't make me prove you wron...i'll get a 32GB cf card (300€ and create the biggest mini ever ;P
14:28:25pregloware the gsoc projects counted as finally allocated yet?

14:59:28intgrBtw, does anyone have experience with hacking Rockbox? The firmware updater for my MP3 player comes with a bunch of hex files and two bin files; what's the most obvious way to find out which CPU arch it is? Just try disassembling with various toolchains until the output looks intelligible?
15:00
15:00:02DooMMasteRope it up
15:00:17DooMMasteRi concidered to do it with my iaudio6
15:00:23intgrI've tried, it's locked tight, I was on the verge of breaking it before I gave up. :)
15:00:24B4gderintgr: see the NewPort wiki page
15:00:38intgrThanks again B4gder.
15:00:45B4gderor try disassemble the files
15:00:54B4gderthere's a very high probability the arch is ARM
15:01:05intgrNope, it disassembles to junk.
15:01:16B4gderyeah, they may be scrambled/encrypted
15:01:23intgrHmm.
15:01:33intgrI thought the 68k was a popular one?
15:01:46fejfighterhex has been used for the h300 and the 68k though
15:01:46B4gdeririver and iaudio, sure
15:01:59B4gderintgr: but they're nothing compared to arm
15:02:11intgrRight.

15:04:06DooMMasteRmy H10 is broken...
15:04:13DooMMasteR^^the H10s firmware
15:04:32B4gderyes, but I said bootloader hence my curiousity
15:04:52DooMMasteRwhere is the newport wiki page???
15:05:03B4gderenter NewPort in the go field
15:05:10DooMMasteR^^the H10s bootloader is also partly encrypted
15:05:24B4gderDooMMasteR: partly?
15:05:42DooMMasteRyep...some initilisations are open
15:05:46DooMMasteRthe rest is encrypted
15:06:11DooMMasteRtha's why you have to replace the bootloader and DualBoot is not possible
15:06:30B4gderno, that's not correct
15:06:40B4gderI find it funny you tell me all this ;-)
15:06:55B4gder1. the h10 bootloader is what I refer to as scrambled
15:07:25B4gder2. dual-boot is indeed possible on the h10, we should just be able to load the mi4, decrypt it and run it
15:07:39B4gderthere's just something in there that isn't working yet afaik
15:07:44DooMMasteRbut noone has done it yet :(
15:07:53DooMMasteR^^or that way
15:07:57B4gderwell, there's not many devs with h10s
15:08:16DooMMasteRmine is broken
15:08:45DooMMasteRthe HDD headcrashed...and it is not compatible with the normal CF protocoll
15:09:17intgrHas anyone shown any interest in the past of porting to a Philips player?

17:12:17spahijaLlorean, thousand apologies ..my bad
17:12:22LloreanAs it is, all you need to do is reboot your iPod into the apple firmware (hold Menu+Select, as soon as the screen clears, turn on the hold switch, and wait)
17:12:26LloreanThen do section 2.2.2

17:27:23Lloreanspahija: There's just something in the hardware we haven't figured out yet.

17:39:02spahijaGodEater, I was wondering where to store files
17:39:10GodEateranywhere you like
17:39:18spahijaoh I see
17:39:27GodEaterMost users adopt the \Artists\Albums folder approach
17:39:31GodEaterbut you can use any system you like

17:41:31spahijamarkun, yes but I was thinking more of storage place for file to be comaptible for both
17:42:05GodEaterspahija: but there is NO way for an ogg file to be compatible - no matter where it's stored
17:42:32spahijasome files that I have are ogg others mp3
17:43:03GodEaterwell the apple firmware will only ever play the mp3 files, and then only if they're loaded on in the iTunes manner
17:43:14GodEatereither using iTunes itself, or something like gtkpod etc.
17:43:41spahijaGodEater, reading my mind :D ...gtkpod running as we speak
17:44:15GodEaterwell that will store all your music under ipod_control somewhere in some obfuscated folder / file name combo
17:44:39GodEaterand you can choose to store your ogg files there if you really want (but I'd consider you mental if you did)
17:44:41spahijaGodEater, but I get this right I can move files where ever I want and rockbox will play it

17:45:20GodEateryou finally lost your rag over the gigabeat page huh ? :)
17:45:20markunthe question is not about the formatting
17:45:57markunGodEater: I removed the section which had the claim that the Gigabeat X uses OLED and someone changed another section to include that claim again
17:46:15markunI wonder who first made that up
17:46:23GodEaterput it in the "discussion" page
17:46:26markunI have
17:46:37GodEaterhmm
17:47:03markunI guess the first time someone wrote it it was just a mistake (might have been confused with the Gigabeat P) but after that it's on wikipedia... so it must be true
17:47:11[g2]Llorean, markun THX
17:47:14GodEaterHow about changing the section they just put in to say explicitly something like "despite some claims to the contrary, the X does not have an OLED display)

17:48:01markun[g2]: no
17:48:18markunbut I have done some Gigabeat hacking
17:48:28GodEater[g2]: I don't believe it's possible currently - I don't believe an open source compiler exists for the shuffle's architecture (either gen).
17:48:44[g2]GodEater, it's an ARM right ?
17:48:48GodEater[g2]: No
17:48:55GodEaternot to my knowledge anyway

17:49:03GodEaterreally ?
17:49:04markunright?
17:49:09GodEaterI stand corrected then

20:23:50GodEater_it's a file, it contains data from a gameboy cartridge
20:24:27Renook? does that mean i have to copy that "from" the gamboy catrige?

20:42:36amiconnlinuxstb: ide_power_enable() is for switching the hdd power pin on targets which support it, while ata_enable() is for switching the ata buffers on targets with a separate usb<->ata bridge
20:43:03linuxstbAh, so ata_enable() is irrelevant for PP targets?
20:43:15amiconnWhen enabling usb, the firmware needs to hand over hdd control to the usb bridge, meaning that the cpu needs to disconnect from the ata bus

20:43:53spahijaIs it just me or Rockbox is not stable on Ipod 3Gen
20:44:53linuxstbspahija: I've never seen Rockbox on the 3rd gen, but it's not a very well developed target, so it wouldn't surprise me if there are issues.
20:44:54spahijait just locks up when I try to go from one "menu" to anothe
20:44:59mkidefault builds arent stable on my mini 1g either
20:45:22mkithe... frequency scaling disabled builds work, but eat battery quite nicely :P
20:45:27spahijalinuxstb, so its "alpha" version ?
20:46:24linuxstbamiconn: I assumed from ata.c that ide_power_enable() was the right function to implement - I added code to toggle the "IDE0" bit in DEV_EN, and it doesn't break anything, but I'll have to do some runtime tests to see if it's actually helping.
20:47:03linuxstbspahija: Well, ipods are probably the least stable of all Rockbox targets, and the 3rd gen is the least stable ipod...

21:25:52jhMikeSlinuxstb: was swcodec good on threads or does mpegplayer use all the slots up?
21:26:22linuxstbjhMikeS: IIRC, I had to increase the number of threads.
21:27:27linuxstbRob24: You need the 6 files listed in the manual...
21:27:27jhMikeSso it's at the limit now? to have all this seeking work, I really don't want the audio thread handling UI. it'll just be too messy.
21:27:39linuxstbSo you want one more thread?
21:27:56jhMikeSyeps
21:28:13linuxstbI think the targets with remote LCDs need the most threads - for the remote scroll thread.
21:28:37Rob24sh** i need 5e and 5f still >.>
21:29:07jhMikeSok. I'll need Audio, Video, Buffer, and UI I think.
21:29:10Rob24where can i find them?
21:29:27linuxstbWhat about doing UI in the video thread? Or is that going to be too troublesome on the dual-core targets?
21:29:37DomonokyRob24: same answer as bevor..:-) google
21:29:43Rob24kk
21:30:02mutantpineappleRob24: puckman.zip?
21:30:02jhMikeSI really don't want the worker threads involved in any way...they really should just worry about their own stream or it's too twisted
21:30:50linuxstbOK, I've just got a natural dislike of threads... But I trust you to do the right thing.
21:30:56jhMikeSand trying to do that with the COP isn't possible anyway without lots of locking and sync
21:31:13*jhMikeS loves threads and lots of async stuff :)
21:31:47linuxstbI guess 3 or 4 threads isn't going to make any difference...
21:32:10jhMikeSMy tendency is to prefer what is simpler _and_ meets the needs really.
21:32:48jhMikeSThe buffering might be usuable in the core. It should be able to play forward and reverse and doesn't use any wrapping.

21:34:37linuxstbYou mean splitting mpegplayer.c ?
21:35:06jhMikeSyes which should keep it manageable and readable
21:35:24linuxstbYes, I should have done that before committing the first audio support.

22:13:36Nico_PDomonoky: and I suppose you are aware that the controls could do with some resizing
22:14:32Domonokyyes, especially in the theme dialog, but i dont know to much about wxwidgets.. :-)
22:14:48LearHad a look at rbutil (for the first time). When I went to the "Install theme" page, it didn't show any "Ok" and "Cancel" buttons, which was a bit confusing. Resizing the window a little made them show.
22:15:00LearCan't easily repeat it though...
22:15:12DomonokyLear: yes i know this..
22:15:16LearAh.
22:15:47Nico_PI would've loved seeing rbutil in Qt :)
22:15:55Domonokythe problem is that the controls can differ much in size, and i dont know how to proper resize a window in wxwidgets..
22:16:21DomonokyQt would make it easier.. :-) so if you start a port.. i will help :-)
22:16:23LearDoesn't wxwidgets have decent layout managers?
22:16:44DomonokyLear: it has, but i dont know to much about wxWidgets..
22:17:11Nico_PDomonoky: I know absolutly nothing about Qt or wxWidgets or even C++
22:17:16LearGood, it can be fixed then... :)
22:17:37Nico_PI was just saying that because I'm a KDE user and GTK is kinda weird in a KDE env :)
22:17:46Lear(Without ugly, manual layout code...)
22:18:13Learnico_p: ditto for Gnome users and QT.
22:18:23DomonokyLear: i think so ..
22:18:26Nico_PDomonoky: is it normal that "install rbutil on device" fails ?
22:18:45Nico_PLear: gnome users should switch :p
22:19:27Domonokyyes, this function is broken, i dont know why, i think because i dont use the installer which was originally used ?
22:19:37Nico_Pof course I don't actually mean that... the best would be a unified toolkit. Hasn't it been started ?
22:21:59BagderNico_P: they will never unify

23:01:12linuxstbThose instructions were extracted from an old version of the install instructions, and haven't been adapted properly for standalone use...
23:01:54webguest09Pls, i need help

23:04:30webguest09i reset it lots of time but it do nothing
23:04:45linuxstbPut it into disk mode, connect to your PC and finish the install.
23:04:56webguest09i cant open it
23:05:06webguest09and my comp dont see it wen i connect it
23:05:16webguest09it stock at the apple logo
23:05:28linuxstbYou need to put your ipod into disk mode.
23:05:41webguest09how?
23:05:42Psy87ok, my sektor size is 512bytes
23:06:06linuxstbwebguest09: http://www.google.com/search?q=disk+mode
23:06:30linuxstbPsy87: Do you know the disk device assigned to your ipod? e.g. /dev/disk1 ?
23:06:39webguest09nop
23:06:44Psy87disk2s3
23:07:15linuxstbOK, /dev/disk2 is the device. (disk2s3 is the current HFS partition on that disk)
23:07:17Psy87thats what disk utility sasy
23:07:24Psy87ah ok
23:08:05webguest09thx a lot men!!
23:08:23webguest09ok now that it is in disk mode i go where?
23:08:36 Join alienbiker99 [0] (n=alienbik@ool-44c126d4.dyn.optonline.net)
23:09:02linuxstbPsy87: So the "dd" command you need will be "dd if=mbr-video30gb.bin of=/dev/disk2" (assuming you have the 30GB video)
23:09:16linuxstbwebguest09: Did you download and extract rockbox.zip ?
23:09:18webguest09i wright it where?
23:09:23webguest09yup
23:09:28webguest09i extract it
23:09:34linuxstbTo your ipod?
23:09:35Psy87where should i save the table file?
23:09:40webguest09no
23:09:48webguest09ill put it on my ipod
23:10:21linuxstbPsy87: Anywhere you want. But you need to be able to find it in the terminal. The easiest place will probably just be the Desktop.
23:10:52 Quit davina (Remote closed the connection)
23:11:38webguest09ok im in the rockbox folder, now i click what?
23:12:01linuxstbYou don't click, you just extract the contents of the zip to your ipod, and you're done.
23:12:19webguest09thx a lot
23:12:21linuxstbYou may want to do the same thing with the fonts zip file.
23:12:36Psy87ok, done so far
23:12:50linuxstbHave you done the "dd" ?
23:13:31Psy87yes, know just erase using disk utility, right?
23:13:53linuxstbYes. Or just type "newfs_msdos -F32 -v iPod /dev/rdisk2s2"
23:14:29Psy87ok, terminal is already open :)
23:14:52linuxstbIt's easier than all that messing around with the mouse...
23:15:45Psy87yes, an it looks like you know how to handle with the terminal
23:16:01***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
23:17:00Psy87now its FAT32 :) thank you very much
23:17:47linuxstbOK, now make sure the original Apple firmware is still working on your ipod, and if so, install Rockbox.
23:18:18Psy87yes it does "Do not disconnect" is still blinking
23:18:52linuxstbI mean disconnect and check the original menus appear OK.

23:31:37linuxstbWhat did you do?
23:32:05Psy87i copied the folder .rockbox to my ipod an restarted it
23:32:39linuxstbThe folder definitely started with a "." ?
23:32:48Psy87yes
23:33:08linuxstbAnd inside there is a rockbox.ipod file (amongst other things) ?
23:33:10Psy87but i take e 2nd look
23:33:48linuxstbA common problem on Macs is that you'll get a "rockbox" folder, with a ".rockbox" folder inside, and that ".rockbox" folder will be hidden by default in Finder...
23:34:55Soapscorche: pong.
23:34:58Psy87he didnt copy it, but i see all hidden files an i dont have this problem, i restart again
23:37:00Psy87ok, it finally works :) thank you a lot

23:46:34alienbiker99what player do you have

23:49:00LeetlandonShux.
23:49:14LeetlandonWell, can I enable it anyways, or will it crash?
23:51:42linuxstbIn theory you could. You'll need to disable the use of IRAM in Rockboy as that stops audio playback.
23:52:18Rob24IS there any way to cusomize a snes controllar to plug into the head phone jack of my ipod video? I heard that the head phone jack is is a serial port
23:52:38Rob24aswell
23:52:45linuxstbNo, the headphone jack is a headphone jack... There is a serial port in the dock connector.
23:53:13 Quit moos ("Glory to Rockbox")
23:53:20linuxstbEarlier ipods had a separate serial port jack next to the headphone jack.
23:53:48Rob24kk, so if you did want to make a custom controllar would it be possible with the dock conector?
23:54:31linuxstbIn theory. You would have to write the drivers for Rockbox as well.
