#rockbox log for 2007-07-08

00:00:10scorcheit encodes to a lot of things, so likely....but that is offtopic for this channel
00:00:20Jinx|xniJyeah
00:00:25Jinx|xniJlol ok dude
00:00:31Jinx|xniJmine does
00:00:35Jinx|xniJthanks for the answers guys.
00:01:14amiconndan_a: Looks like I found the pll setup routine in the G3 OF. It's quite complex, need to fully comment the stuff in order to understand it
00:02:02dan_aExcellent! (That you've found it... not that it's complex)
00:02:44amiconnscorche: #rockbox topics became a lot shorter than they used to be. But even before that change they were always shorter than the #ipodlinux topics
00:03:13amiconndan_a: It involves udelays of up to 10 milliseconds in one code path
00:03:25scorcheyeah...as i said, many channel on freenode use loooonch topics

00:04:51jimis the list of compatible players on the web page a complete list? and, if not, where is the complete list?
00:04:52amiconnIt seems like starting at those disassemblies for days made me somewhat accustomed to the style apple's compiler produces
00:04:53*scorche wishes he could make the link shorter
00:04:59scorchejim: yes
00:05:01krazykitscorche, tinyurl?
00:05:11amiconns/starting/staring/
00:05:14scorchekrazykit: they hide where it is taking you though
00:05:31Bagderjim: front page?
00:05:37jimok, maybe you can help... I went to the archos page
00:05:43jim(yes front page)
00:05:56Bagderit lists all supported players and no others
00:05:58jimand I couldn't find anything matching any items
00:06:18scorchenot sure what you mean by that
00:07:19jimI'm looking for a piece of hardware which is an mp3 player, which I can potentially install rockbox onto (that part is clear?)
00:07:28PaulJamthe archos devices rockbox supports arent in poroduction since a long time, so it's unlikely that you'll find them on the archos website
00:07:45Bagderjim: and what is wrong with the table on the front page of www.rockbox.org ?
00:08:08jimnot saying anything is wrong...
00:08:19Bagderbut if you're looking to buy, this is probably nicer: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/BuyersGuide
00:08:23PaulJamjim: have a look here: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/BuyersGuide
00:08:26jimI just can't find compatible devices so far
00:08:46Bagderfinding compatible devices (other than ipods) can be hard
00:09:15Bagderhm, sansas should be fairly available too
00:09:26Soul-SlayerOn the buyers guide, what do yellow highlights mean?
00:09:58amiconnThe X5 can still be found easily
00:10:18Bagdernot in Sweden
00:10:28bluebrotherhmm, how about a general rewrite rule for rockbox.org/wiki/<pagename>?
00:10:50amiconnhttp://mp3-player.de/index.php?page=productOverview&category=4
00:11:01Bagderbluebrother: that's a good idea
00:11:38bluebrotherand if possible (but I guess this would be more work) make the wiki to also use those links
00:11:56Bagderthat's probably a lot more work
00:12:11Soap_or a rewrite rule for wiki.rockbox.org/<pagename>?
00:12:21Jinx|xniJThat was a quick install
00:12:41Jinx|xniJI just bought this Ipod off of a forum, lets see what database finds for me.
00:13:03Bagderok /wiki/[page] works now
00:13:28bluebrotherBagder: nice :)
00:13:42dionoeanow time for the autorefresh build page! :)

00:14:13*bluebrother was thinking about some graphical build size overview :P
00:14:15Topic"Please read before speaking: http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/IrcGuidelines | Go to #rockbox-community for offtopic/social chat" by scorche (i=HydraIRC@rockbox/administrator/scorche)
00:14:20jimlet me ask this... you know how some records have songs that continue into the next song but there's an index point in between? is it possible in rockbox to either have separate tracks that have no time gap between them, or to have one track covering the entire album and also have index points and bookmarks?
00:14:20scorcheBagder: thanks =)
00:14:32Mode"#rockbox -o scorche " by ChanServ (ChanServ@services.)
00:14:43*XavierGr dances the "topic-change-dance" :P
00:14:51bluebrotherjim: Rockbox plays gapless
00:15:11bluebrother(unless the format doesn't support gapless, of course)
00:15:13jimok...
00:15:24PaulJamjim: and cuesheets are supported too
00:15:31scorcheprovided there is no gaps that are inserted into the track you possess, rockbox will not put a gap there
00:15:48*bluebrother never understood why people want cuesheets for compressed music
00:15:54jimso rockbox will play what's there and not gap between tracks
00:16:01bluebrotherexactly
00:16:40Bagderdionoea: is the refresh time GMT ?
00:17:07jimI don't think the issue of whether music is compressed or not is relevent, because you can't really tell what the file format is of a tune when all you're doing to perceive it, is listening to it
00:17:15dionoeayes (but it was displayed in local time)
00:17:33Bagderah yes I see that now
00:17:37jimso if bookmarks for uncompressed music is found useful...
00:18:07jim...then the same reasoning can be applied to compressed
00:19:29jimbluebrother: wouldn't it depend on the content, the purpose and the person using?
00:19:58jimforexample
00:20:10jimif it's music, you could have someone that just likes music
00:20:18bluebrotherwell, if you can do gapless I don't see a need for cuesheets.
00:20:23jim(this is the vast majority of use case)
00:20:33jimbut
00:20:43bluebrotherbut for some strange reasons people seem to be obsessed with that ...
00:20:58jimwhat if it's music (again) and the purpose for listening to the music is to learn the melody?
00:21:11Jinx|xniJHas anyone here tried the iMod?
00:21:20bluebrotherwhat's the iMod?
00:21:23Soap_the redwine snakeoil?
00:21:46Jinx|xniJwhatever they do, yeah
00:21:56jimbluebrother: you're looking at that as an obsession?? I look at it as a necessity for my job... I'm a pro musician
00:22:23bluebrotherwell, if you want to learn a tune, why do you need cuesheets?
00:22:34Jinx|xniJImod is something that some guy cracks open your ipod and re-routes an untouched audio signal to your bottom Ipod port.
00:22:39jimwhat I need are cues that I can -set-
00:22:51Jinx|xniJand it suppost to increase the quality of your music by tons
00:22:57jimbut I also need the cues from the original
00:22:58bluebrotherwell, that's something different than cuesheets.
00:23:02Bagderjim: that's bookmarks in our terms
00:23:26Bagderie storing (multiple) resume points
00:24:19Soap_Jinx|xniJ, kinda. He reroutes the "untouched" line-out to the headphone jack, _from_ the bottom port where it has always been.
00:24:32jimby my way of thinking, the way those are implemented is less important... therefore you have flexibility as to how you implement them... so for example you could use the implementation of bookmarks as a way to implement the cues in cuesheets
00:24:34jimor vise versa
00:24:56Bagderjim: they are both already implemented so that is not an issue here
00:25:01PaulJamBagder: but for that purpose cuesheets are propably better because you can easily skip around to the next previous "bookmark"

00:25:37saratogaBagder: is frequency scaling disabled on teh Sansa?
00:25:41jimanother handy feature for a musician is something like how workman can "split" tracks
00:25:46amiconnsaratoga: Yes it is
00:25:46Soap_oops, on 5th he does even less, he simply wires the lineout to the dock, where it always was. bypassind the traces with wires.
00:25:50Bagdersaratoga: I don't know
00:25:50Jinx|xniJsoap: whatever dude, same idea.
00:26:01amiconnBagder: Too slow ;P
00:26:06Jinx|xniJthat wasnt the point of my story
00:26:22*Bagder goes type practising
00:26:24Jinx|xniJSoap: Does that mean you have used it?
00:26:28jimand for a deejay, he might want to create very exactly timed loops
00:26:37saratogaamiconn: is there a reason for that?
00:26:46amiconnsaratoga: Rockbox doesn't use clock scaling on Sansa, and it doesn't even touch the pll
00:26:52Soap_Jinx|xniJ, no more than I would use a sugar-pill to treat cancer
00:26:59Jinx|xniJlol
00:27:01saratogai was under the impression the PP5022/5024 scaling bugs were worked out?
00:27:01Bagderjim: what are you saying here really?
00:27:04Jinx|xniJyeah, i dont think i buy it either.
00:27:05amiconnThe sansa bootloader sets it to 80MHz, and that's what it's running at in rockbox
00:27:24Jinx|xniJI am ordering a ALO Cotton Dock tho
00:27:35amiconnsaratoga: The pp5020/5022 clock scaling was analysed and fixed by me
00:27:38Jinx|xniJand a PAV2
00:27:55saratogaisn't the 5024 just a 5022 with an onboard DAC?
00:28:06*bluebrother looks at the circuit he soldered today
00:28:17amiconnJust today I learned that the PP5024 reports as PP5022 to software, and the PLL register setup looks familiar
00:28:25jimBagder: that when I hear statements like "I can't understand why people are obsessed with feature X", I tend to go, "take a look at the boundary of your thinking... see what's outside that boundary..."
00:28:26dionoeaBagder: you're missing an </html> tag on build.rockbox.org
00:28:28saratogaoh good timing
00:28:29scorcheJinx|xniJ: a cable is even more snake oil than the imod...
00:28:37amiconnI have a suspicion what the issue with clock scaling on Sansa is, but can't test myself
00:28:43Jinx|xniJIs that right?
00:28:53saratogaamiconn: want me to take a look at something?
00:29:01Jinx|xniJWhat do you suggest to connect my ipod to an amp?
00:29:13Bagderjim: you only reacted on a comment about why the use was needed, that use is still _supported_ by rockbox
00:29:30jimJinx|xniJ: that's a hardware issue... read your ipod manual :)
00:29:37scorcheJinx|xniJ: just talk about it in #rockbox-communuty for now
00:30:05jimBagder: good to hear/know
00:30:07amiconnsaratoga: I am 98% sure the problem lies in the timing setup by the sansa bootloader. The timing is way too slow for lower clock settings, and the old rockbox cpu scaling code didn't touch this timing registers
00:30:32amiconnThe new code does, and I think the svn PP5022 code will work like a charm on sansa
00:30:41jimBagder: are the devs thinking about a looping feature?
00:30:51Bagderjim: we already have one
00:30:53bluebrotherjim: we have a-b repeat
00:31:06saratogaamiconn: is it trivial to enable the new code or is some more work required?
00:31:07jimalso... can I select a specific time into a track from the front panel?
00:31:13bluebrotherno
00:31:16amiconnThe timing can be extended a bit for sansa
00:31:26amiconnBut that's not critical
00:31:29saratogai can certainly try things that don't involve an intimate knowledge of how rockbox works
00:31:48bluebrotherthat's a special use case that like 0.01% of the people would use. If even that much
00:31:52amiconnlemme check
00:31:57jimbluebrother: that could be handy... and you have half of it already (in the form of bookmarks/cues)
00:31:58bluebrotherbut feel free to post a patch :)
00:32:17bluebrotherwell, I never missed that functionality.
00:32:45jimok, about the a/b repeat... is it possible to fine-tune the start and end of the loop?
00:33:09bluebrotheryou can set a and b points. That's all
00:33:26jimand once this is done to store, activate and deactivate multiple loopss?
00:33:46bluebrotheryou should be aware that whilst Rockbox is about playing music it's not about professional mixing and similar.
00:34:04*bluebrother throws in a link to the manual: http://www.rockbox.org/manual.shtml
00:34:13jimagain, you're bounding your thinking... my question is why :)
00:34:38*amiconn builds a sansa build with cpu scaling enabled (just the binary) and will check the .map and the appropriate .o file
00:34:46*bluebrother doesn't get that line
00:34:48jimis the space to store rockbox on the player so small that innovations meant for pros cannot be accomodated?
00:34:50Bagderjim: we don't bound our thinking
00:34:59jimgood :)
00:35:00Bagderwe just focus at music playback
00:35:21Bagderbut everyone is free to work on what they feel like
00:35:27bluebrotherspace is always an issue. If the binary size increases, the playback buffer gets smaller
00:35:37amiconnsaratoga: I think it's dead simple to enable, but be aware that cpu scaling will make the sansa run a bit slower
00:35:47bluebrotherfor usual music playback this means more spinups of the disk, which means shorter battery life.
00:35:54amiconnMax clock in rockbox is 78MHz atm, but currently the sansa runs at 80MHz
00:36:10amiconnI am planning to go 80 soon in rockbox though
00:36:23bluebrotherand the archos devices are rather limited in terms of memory.
00:36:33jhMikeSamiconn: I saw (much) earlier that you found something out about the pll. I was way to busy to get into discussion though.
00:36:58saratogaamiconn: I don't think a 3% clock speed hit is a big deal
00:37:07jimI just saw a 30g archos (now having said that, I'm not necessarily married to the idea of an archos specifically, it's just the first manuf I looked at)
00:37:08amiconnjhMikeS: Yes, I learned something new about the PP5022 pll (we're still not handling it 100% correctly)
00:37:08bluebrotherso blowing up the binary size for some obscure features isn't really an option. Plus, you need someone who implements those rarely needed features.
00:37:09saratogahow do I enable scaling on my builds
00:37:36amiconnAnd I know the PP5024 pll must be identical, and am fairly sure I know what the problems with scaling on the sansa have been
00:37:50amiconnsaratoga: w8
00:37:51jhMikeSwhy does the sansa need to drop in speed?
00:37:55 Quit ender` (" But there, everything has its drawbacks, as the man said when his mother-in-law died, and they came down upon him for the fu)
00:37:57bluebrotherbeware that Rockbox only runs on older archos models −− check the frontpage for supported players (if you haven't done already ;-)
00:38:07saratogaamiconn: sure, didn't realize you were interested on working on it further
00:38:27amiconn[00:34:38] * amiconn builds a sansa build with cpu scaling enabled (just the binary) and will check the .map and the appropriate .o file
00:38:35amiconnSorry, cygwin takes its time
00:38:35saratogajhMikeS: the current scaling code maxes out at 78 MHz
00:38:46jimlet me ask this... are there hardware that is meant/built for rockbox?
00:38:56jhMikeSlet's max at the max :)
00:39:04saratogajim: hell no
00:39:07bluebrotherno.
00:39:20Bagderdionoea: any chance that javascript can be made to not use onload in the body tag?
00:40:03jimother than the apple players, is there a difficulty in gaining GPL-style access to programming details of newer players?
00:40:04dionoeaBagder: well you need to launch the update stuff... what would you like to use instead ? just inline javascript ?
00:40:19Bagderthe script that builds the build table doesn't "control" the body tag, only a subsection of the page
00:40:49amiconnsaratoga: It's indeed just necessary to uncomment the #define in config-e200.h
00:40:50dionoeawell you could call the javascript function in a <scipt > </script> thing
00:41:07jimopenacs and ruby on rails has a way to insert stuff into the head tag
00:41:09amiconnjhMikeS: We will, just be a little patient :)
00:41:17jhMikeSok
00:41:30Bagderjim: that's really not the problem I have
00:41:37dionoeaBagder: like <script type="text/javascript">countdown_refresh(2007,5,30,21,48,00);</script>
00:41:58Bagderaha
00:42:00dionoeaI hope that waits for the page to be loaded (as well as the countdown.js script too) before executing

00:42:40jimwhen I upload a track to the player, can I also upload a bookmark list?
00:43:40bluebrotherbookmarks are just text files. You can move them (or create them) any way you like.
00:44:00bluebrotheryou need to use the correct syntax when writing a bookmark yourself of course
00:44:22jimohh, could you show me an example of the text for a single bookmark?
00:44:48bluebrotherjust create one on the player and open it with your favourite text editor
00:44:50jimthis would possbily solve the loop tuning problem
00:45:24jimI don't have a player running rockbox yet :P
00:45:33jimor even one that's compatible
00:45:41bluebrotheryou can use the simulator
00:45:55Bagderdionoea: reload now ;-)

00:54:00jhMikeSwhen both cores are used and the COP used to decode, the average cpu frequency can drop of course
00:54:08amiconnYou could cause some additional stress by using various plugins in parallel
00:54:17amiconnjhMikeS: yup
00:54:43amiconnFirst, it has to work at all though
00:54:48jimso there are no stable/testing tags for rockbox?
00:55:15saratogaamiconn: doing that now
00:55:23saratogaseems to be about 70% boosted for WMA
00:55:32saratogaat least my 192k stuff
00:55:36Bagderjim: correct
00:55:46Bagderwe're all testing non-stop
00:55:48amiconnYes. Just a little bit more than what mp3 causes
00:56:02jhMikeSone thing I'm not sure about is should pcm playback have it's core set explicitly or just run automatically on the core that calls pcm_play_data?
00:56:15jimdo you have an automated test suite?
00:56:22Bagderjim: nope
00:56:32amiconnThat's what I don't like about the wma codec yet: on arm its nearly on par with libmad, but on coldfire it's like 3 times slower

00:56:59saratogaamiconn: my assumption is that its because we don't use much of the IRAM yet
00:57:24amiconnI tried putting various stuff in iram. ALl I was able to achieve was around 10% speedup
00:57:43saratogai was going to look into what get accessed and how often tonight
00:57:46amiconnMaybe I didn't put the right stuff in iram, as I really don't know what stuff is used most
00:57:56Bagderman that reload worked nicely
00:58:13amiconnBut I think that it will require to make real use of the emac on coldfire
00:58:18jimis it possible to restore the original operating system back onto a player?
00:58:20Bagder3:35 for the last build round has to be a new record even

00:58:40saratogajust really fast MACs or what?
00:58:45Bagderdepending on target and what you did
00:59:07jimso that would involve backing said original os up?
00:59:13 Quit My_Sic (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
00:59:27Bagderjim: it depends on each target, but it is usually documented in the specific manuals
00:59:31bluebrotherjim: most players have a dual-boot feature
00:59:48dionoeahum, my clock is off by 2 minutes :/ need to fix that
00:59:52bluebrotherthe manual holds all important details. The FAQ might also be a good start for a comparison
00:59:53jimso most of the time you're not actually -replacing- the original
01:00
01:00:25mentwhen replacing ipod's microdrive with CF, it's possible to write directly to CF with card reader before replacing (and thus skiping itunes firmware loading)?
01:00:31bluebrotherwell, the original is replaced in terms of what software is running

01:00:50bluebrotherment: yes.
01:01:09PaulJamjim: well, often you don't want to use the OF anymore. so in a way rockbox replaces it.
01:01:38mentbluebrother: ok, thanks
01:01:49bluebrothere.g. on h100 you can completely remove the old firmware.
01:02:06bluebrotherthe usual attempt is to have dual-boot to allow the user to switch back.
01:02:20amiconnsaratoga: EMAC stands for enhanced MAC. 'enhanced' is related to the first coldfire MAC
01:02:31bluebrotherit's similar to installing linux on a windows box: you not necessarily need to remove windows
01:02:45menti know, but i was thinking about the disk mode
01:03:06amiconnIt's a multiply-accumulate unit with single cycle mul-add (and mul-subtract)
01:03:41amiconnIt does 32bit * 32bit -> 40bit + 48bit => 48bit
01:03:50amiconn4 accumulators, 3 cycles latency
01:03:51jimPaulJam: well that depends... I don't see much in the way of QA here (no regression testing is performed automatically, and no tagging of even last-known-good versions), so I pretty much expect things to go wrong at least initially... given that lack, I would want at least the option of going back
01:03:53bluebrotherment: huh?
01:04:36bluebrotherjim: that heavily depends on the original firmware :P
01:04:53jimno question about that :)
01:04:54Bagderjim: don't confuse bootloaders with rockbox itself. you can (in all practical cases) isntall a completely borked rockbox and just install another one without problems
01:05:07mentbluebrother: nm
01:05:27jimare "all practical cases" documented? :)
01:05:28bluebrotherI wouldn't want to go back to the iriver firmware ... and even less to the Apple one
01:05:41PaulJameven when rockbox used to crash often on h300 and batterylife sucked i still prefered rockbox.
01:05:42bluebrotherjim: http://www.rockbox.org/manual.shtml :P

01:06:14jimI take your point
01:06:21Bagdertrying to say "don't do xxxx" tend to make at least some people miss the "don't" part
01:06:36Bagderand 95% of those own sansas ;-/
01:07:09jimBagder: it's suggested by mind/NLP/hypnosis experts that it's not possible for the mind to process negatives
01:07:10Bagder(which can be pretty seriously messed up by users, not really related to rockbox)
01:07:25bluebrotherthen we should stop supporting the sansa ;-)
01:07:52Bagderwe should first ask the users if they can process negatives ;-)
01:08:03krazykitjim, i can't process negatives ;-)
01:08:10bluebrotheryeah, but ask it in a negative way.
01:08:12krazykitwhich is a negative in itself :P

01:08:37jimguess how many orders start pouriing in :)

01:31:59jimso if I can put things into folders/dirs on the player device, is it possible to hide/disable them so that the items in the folders can't be played without re-enabling the folder they're in?

02:40:59scorchei promise you will notice a difference between 64k mp3 and 192k mp3
02:41:00jhMikeSNico_P: for non-blocking I'd think the value would be based on whatever state things happen to be at the time. if you must wait for an operation to be complete on another thread like saying audio has completed the state transistion to "playing" then queue_send is the thing to use since yields during wait won't let the sender rush ahead. it's the thread-safe way to perform "while (!some_state) yield();"

12:27:49lazkai just tried the sansa simulator binary on linux using wine. everything seems to work, even sound. shouldn't this be mentioned in the wiki??
12:28:23bluebrotherfeel free to add it, but when running linux you most likely want to build the sim yourself
12:29:08bluebrotheralso, the main purpose of the sim is debugging, so running in wine somewhat defeats this purpose ...

13:04:21amiconnI got 122% realtime with 128kbps wma on H180
13:04:39XavierGrI am testing with test_codec now
13:06:07amiconnNow compare this with 542% realtime for mp3 (~200kbps) on coldfire...

13:08:49XavierGrwell saratoga was mumbling something about not utilizing iram efficiently and putting the wrong data in it, so hopefully coldfire will become fast as hell too
13:09:27amiconnI think this will only be possible with making real use of the EMAC

15:37:21Nico_Pin particular, what do you think of passing the arg data through structs like that ?
15:37:37jhMikeSthe if (result) queue_reply() bit isn't right. queue_reply really should just be called always for any message queue_send could send
15:38:10jhMikeSthat's what it's for. recording passes filenames that way with queue_send

15:39:49jhMikeSthere's really no reason to be choosy about calling queue_reply since it returns very fast if not in a send state. you could enable the queue_in_queue_send function which takes fewer params though.

15:41:57Crash91Kreative_Think_R: No! Lets get mpegplayer up properly first then think about DivX
15:42:17jhMikeSqueue_in_queue_send returns true if the last message dequeued was sent by queue_send and the wait waiting thread wasn't bumped. basically it's the checking part of queue_reply without the reply part

15:44:42GodEater_I used an AC wall charger with it on Friday night - then turned it off once it was fully charged
15:44:57GodEater_turned it on this afternoon and got the "Very Low Battery" warning
15:45:04GodEater_that can't be healthy
15:45:21DerPapstno it can't
15:45:34DerPapstluckily you're still under warranty
15:45:38GodEater_true
15:45:48GodEater_but I've ordered a new battery for it anyway
15:45:52GodEater_an 850maH
15:46:01GodEater_instead of the stock 600maH

15:49:14GodEater_fingers crossed
15:49:32GodEater_although if it did
15:49:37GodEater_the case should just pop off
15:49:46Crash91hmm....thats bad...but li-on batteries have very long lives unless you keep them plugged in for excessive amounts of time
15:49:48GodEater_it's not screwed together like an H140

17:48:28Nico_PjhMikeS: what do you mean by "send a message and wait" ?
17:50:38amiconnjhMikeS: Do we really need invert on colour targets?
17:50:56jhMikeSit appears that a message is sent to get any piece of data at all instead of just reading it on the calling thread unless I've just not gotten familiar enough with it
17:51:29jhMikeSamiconn: If not then maybe it should go on all of them since it's not the only one with that
17:51:52jhMikeSiCatcher looks better inverted though :)
17:51:54amiconnI don't know of any. Only b&w and greyscale targets
17:51:59jhMikeSx5
17:52:10amiconnX5 also has that nasty sleep option
17:52:27amiconnThat should go away, and display sleep always enabled
17:53:13*amiconn almost never uses his X5
17:53:13Nico_PjhMikeS: the calling thread calls bufgetdata to know how much data he can read
17:53:17jhMikeSsome find the extra delay to restart the lcd from standby annoying though...myself included. it's ok if I'm not going to touch it for awhile.
17:53:56amiconnThen make it sleep a fixed amount of time after the backlight goes off
17:54:02amiconn(e.g. 5 seconds)
17:54:48jhMikeSNico_P: but why is a message send/post needed to get that information? that kind of task switching can be slow.
17:54:53amiconnUsually I am easily annoyed by delays, but on X5 I couldn't even notice the difference between lcd sleep enabled and disabled
17:55:02jhMikeSmmm...I ususually use around 30s or more.

17:57:59jhMikeSamiconn: I'm quite aware of the sluggishness of bringing the display back since the delays needed are much longer
17:58:27Nico_PjhMikeS: the thing is the buffer might have to be filled in order for the required amount of data to be available
17:59:46jhMikeSNico_P: so, if the data isn't available, then block. otherwise let the caller update the read position. some mutexing in the correct places is going to be way more efficient.

18:02:43jhMikeSit might not be nescessary but it might be nice. the thing with threaded programming is to lock things together as little as possible or you lose the benefit.
18:05:06Nico_Phmm, I think I'm losing sight of what it should do. in fact it should almost only check wether the buffer has enough data and fill it when appropriate, shouldn't it ?

18:15:18jhMikeSone advantage to polling is letting the codec free to keep checking its own status like whether to quit or not and that can avoid deadlocks.
18:16:46pondlifeNico_P: I was vaguely thinking that any buffering thread would only be for filling the buffer, not necessarily for handling the API requests, if that's any help.
18:17:21pondlifeSorry I've not had time to look at your code since you started thread stuff.
18:17:22Nico_Ppondlife: that's what I was starting to think too
18:17:29pondlifeGood:)

18:19:03 Quit Crash91_ (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
18:19:05jhMikeSI'm thinking that codecs having a message queue would be beneficial since things like requesting a stop or a seek (relatively rare event) could be done simply and securely.
18:19:23Nico_PjhMikeS: I think i'll go with polling... just to make sure we're talking about the same thing, it means that (for example) bufgetdata will return an error status if it can't provide enough data ?
18:20:05 Quit bluebrother (Read error: 113 (No route to host))
18:20:15Nico_P... instead of blocking to try to fill the buffer in order to be able to provide the data ?
18:20:17pondlifeNico_P: I think bufread/bufgetdata need to block... otherwise what will the calling routine do if there's not enough data...
18:20:42pondlifeIt would have to wait I think - hence blocking but in a different place.
18:20:51Nico_Pthat's true
18:20:54jhMikeSright, and it can do other stuff and check it again until the data is ready
18:21:19pondlifeI don't know if the codec callbacks allow that flexibility.
18:21:52 Join bluebrother [0] (i=XjYAWSWQ@nat-wh-1.rz.uni-karlsruhe.de)
18:22:06jhMikeSso, if the data isn't ready...post a message and return to the codec. the codec checks it's queue status and if nothings there to process, it checks the buffer status again
18:22:06pondlifeWhen a codec needs data, it needs data, right?
18:22:29pondlifeI thought the codec made the call to request more data?
18:22:47Nico_PI think it does
18:22:55jhMikeSand it would but the codec doesn't have to block there
18:23:37pondlifeAh, there's a response on the codec queue...?
18:23:54jhMikeSit's already a deadlock possiblity because how do you tell a blocked codec to quit?
18:24:19pondlifeIs that what's causing the STOP while resuming lock?
18:24:21jhMikeSwe already have a resume deadlock in the works :)
18:24:42pondlifeHey, the more the merrier :p
18:24:45jhMikeSI fixed it but by relying on timing and avoiding a yield in one spot
18:25:25pondlifeNeeds some proper design really.
18:25:40*pondlife hints
18:25:43Nico_PI don't really feel competent for such design
18:25:48pondlifeMe neither.
18:26:49pondlifeIt does "feel" that the codec handling is a little overcomplicated and too dependent on other threads/timing.
18:27:14pondlifeBut that's way OT for buffering/MoB.
18:27:40 Quit zylche ("+++ ATH0--;")
18:29:03jhMikeSway OT? it seems OnT since the buffer deals with both the metadata and audio data

18:29:48jhMikeSpondlife: that's one problem with playback.c. no mutexing between the codec and buffer and since yields come and go, that just throws it off when it changes.
18:29:49pondlifeJust the mechanism by which we pass the data pointers.

18:35:55 Part FalscherProphet
18:36:52pondlifempegplayer might be an easier place to develop/test the buffering API...
18:37:17pondlifeI've not looked at the code, but it must be clearer than playback.c.
18:37:30 Quit inversions (Read error: 113 (No route to host))
18:41:06jhMikeSessentially reversing everything from how it is now seems to be the way to go...lol. a thread is still needed for background buffering though.
18:41:43pondlifeWill that work with the Archos playback too?
18:42:58jhMikeSI would think so. I think the MAS codec should just be seen as a codec. why does playback need to know if the decoder itself is hardware or software?
18:43:34pondlifeMAS playback doesn't use playback.c, so I assume it has separate buffering at the moment..
18:43:48pondlifeBut this should be unified.
18:43:53jhMikeSit's all completely duplicated
18:46:22jhMikeSI suppose it would get encoded data out of the buffer the same way as a software one but it just wouldn't make pcm buffer calls to do output but could call a hardware driver API instead
18:47:41amiconnThe difference with the MAS is that we (ideally) do not want the "codec" to copy the data into a separate buffer, but operate in-place
18:48:28amiconnHowever, if we want to support simple compressing codecs instead of just pcm wav/aiff and mp3 (e.g. adpcm), we would need a separate buffer
18:50:25jhMikeSI suppose simple access to a pointer is fine, if a "codec" wants to copy it can copy or just use it in place. Things don't nescessarily copy now anyway for SWCODEC.
18:51:08amiconnThe bitswap would need to run *in* the main data buffer
18:51:25amiconn...and it needs to remember which parts are already swapped
18:51:44amiconnThis could probably be handled in the metadata header of the track
18:51:54jhMikeShow is the bitswap performed
18:52:56jhMikeSevery 32-bit int needs the bits reversed?
18:53:50amiconnNo, every byte
18:55:49jhMikeStoo slow to just never buffer unswapped data?

18:56:29amiconnThe bitswap is asm optimised nowadays
18:56:45amiconnPerhaps we could swap on load, that'd need experimentation
18:57:44jhMikeSalso for pcm or just mp3 data?
18:57:57amiconnpcm and mp3
18:58:08amiconnThis is not due to the mas, but due to the SH1 SPI
18:58:21amiconnFor Ondio, I'm even tempted to add a "multimedia read" to the mmc driver
18:58:41amiconnThis would save the current double-swapping
18:59:22 Quit spiorf_ (Remote closed the connection)
18:59:35amiconnThe MMC also uses SPI, and the SH1 SPI uses the reverse bit order to what everything else uses

22:41:11amiconnOn arm it's now completely on par with wma
22:41:16saratoga2amiconn: how big of a difference did those changes make?
22:41:22Davide-NYCI've just finished the batchfile and am updating the wiki page. Hopefully folks will report back with numbers. The test_codec plugin is borked right now
22:41:24saratoga2on ARM they did almost nothing
22:41:48amiconncoldfire: 104%->122% realtime, ipod: 170%->178% realtime
22:42:03amiconnJust for comparison: mp3 is >500% realtime on coldfire...
22:42:08saratoga2thats going to make doing IRAM changes fun then
22:42:17saratoga2since ARM barely notices an improvement
22:42:28saratoga2i almost didn't commit that change because I thought it didn't do anything
22:42:29amiconnThat's not due to arm being arm
22:42:37saratoga2err PP or Sansa
22:42:45saratoga2whatever determines the SDRAM access time

22:43:07saratoga2they have single combined cache i thought?
22:43:20amiconnYes
22:43:29amiconnThe point is: it's for instruction and data
22:43:37saratoga2that reminds me, did anyone ever measure what the cacheline sizes and associativity are?
22:43:48amiconnColdfire only features an instruction cache, but no data cache
22:45:15amiconnThat's why using iram for data on cf is so important...
22:45:50saratoga2i've made a simple (and probably inaccurate) profile of the non-stack memory usage of the codec
22:46:02saratoga2should i just move the common stuff to IRAM and let you test it?
22:47:31linuxstbsaratoga2: My thoughts are that we should try and reduce the memory usage as much as possiblew for the WMA codec - e.g. merge buffers if possible, decode things in-place rather than from one buffer to another, etc. I also think we should try to change it to decode a block at a time, rather than a superframe (which will also reduce RAM requirements)

22:51:36amiconnI wrote the SH and coldfire versions, the arm version was imported from somewhere afaik

22:56:25amiconnThe latter would mean less code, but also less flexibility in changing clock setup
22:57:50amiconnOn coldfire we're doing the latter (but there we're also limited in our choice of clock frequencies - they must be integer multiples of the xtal clock in order to be able to let timers running through a clock change)

23:39:09Davide-NYCI've been messing with it all afternoon. I think it is very delicate. If you separate the filetupes into discrete folders it shouldn't crash
23:39:41Davide-NYCalso don't do anything to the player while the test is running. I froze my H140 by unplugging the charger mid test.
23:39:41stripwaxone folder per extension?
23:39:44Davide-NYCyes
23:39:49*stripwax goes for it
23:39:50 Quit bdgraue (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
23:41:00Davide-NYCit's a pain because we'll have to compile the results together at the end. I'm just going to run WMA and AAC since those are the ones that run slow currently.
23:41:51stripwaxDavide-NYC - i'll try to run them all (against both latest svn build, and also some of the vorbis + libmad patches in tracker). your encoder batchfile is great btw
23:42:18Davide-NYCwasn't originally mine
23:42:26Davide-NYCI think it was either senab or saratoga
23:42:45amiconnhcs: Somehow I doubt that this still has to do with clock setup... and I can't test as it's 100% stable for me now
23:43:03amiconn(I also have to give back the pp5020 target I used for testing)
23:43:17amiconndan_a: ping......
23:43:58pixelmamaybe it's an arm-elf-gcc version problem again? Just a guess as I don't know much about these things...

23:46:46Frode_hey
23:47:21Frode_it sounds like the latest build got some hardware noise for the sansa build
23:47:34Frode_did not have any before the update

23:50:38Frode_the noise seems to be only when switching tracks
23:50:47saratoga2Frode_: thats always been there
23:50:56Frode_saratoga2, really? hehe
23:51:52Frode_been using rockbox for many months, and i was quite sure it got removed, but i might be wrong

23:53:22saratoga2damn it that last SVN commit entered before I'd typed in all my comment
23:53:28saratoga2can someone edit it for me?
23:53:48saratoga2i want to mention Benjamin Larsson for sending me some code
23:57:51stripwaxDavide-NYC: - hm, do I need to do something to make the test_codec.rock show up in "Open With"? Looks like it doesn't by default, at least following those wiki instructions. It's in Plugins, but not Open With, unless I've built incorrectly
23:58:38Davide-NYChmm, all I did was add the test_codec.c line to apps/plugins/SOURCES and recompiled
23:58:49Frode_is there any guides/howtos for setting up visual studio to build rockbox?
23:58:52stripwaxoh. it needs to go to viewers.config ?
