00:09:52scorcheDomonoky: not really...
00:10:03scorcheshould there be?
00:10:09Domonokythe question is, should those iconsets considered as part of themes, or as soemthing extra..
00:10:59scorchethey are a part of the theme imo, but i am not sure if they should be treated as anything other than "if you have a particular iconset, include it in the zip"
00:11:08Domonokyand the FMPresets are another set of data, where it would be good to have something like a repository.. :-)

01:27:02dmonhi, i need some help with my ipod mini 2nd gen: i havent charged it for a while and now its not charging anymore, its not recognized by any computer, on reset i see the battery symbol with the flash. i would like to boot into the old firmware to clean up but i cant manage to get there...
01:27:24scorchehave you tried using a wall adapter?
01:27:36dmonnope, sorry. i dont have one
01:27:44dmonjust usb cable
01:28:02scorchehrm...you might want to get one, or at least borrow one from someone
01:28:21dmondid a reset to get the symbol and connected then for some hours
01:28:48scorcheotherwise, plug it in to a known good (in regards to power output) USB port for a long time (can be as long as 48 hours)
01:29:59dmonwith reset to get the battery symbol or without that?
01:31:18scorcheif you wish...if you can, get it into disk mode

02:45:49Soul-SlayerNot without editing the source, no
02:46:19webguest51why the volume of the sound came to negative?
02:47:01Soul-SlayerIt's to make it easier for Line Out I believe, so you know 0dB is the line out value

02:48:40Buschelfor amplifiers dB-values are used. 0dB = full volume, -xdB = lower volume. even my hifi-amp has such
02:48:44scorchemost high-end sound systems have the volume displayed that wasy as well
02:49:16Soul-SlayerRather impressive that I can hear negative decibels though (H)
02:49:18scorche0dB doesnt mean full volume, per say...it means line level
02:49:27webguest51there area
02:49:31scorcheSoul-Slayer: it is in relation to the line level...
02:49:40webguest51there are a possibility to add lyrics?

02:54:02trina_limaoit means that i can turn on a mic in jack and record sound?

04:26:14Soul-SlayerThis is ridiculous, I have an H10 and a Gigabeat... I've been using my Gigabeat mostly, turned on my H10 and the screen size is appalling
04:26:28Soul-SlayerTambu:
04:26:28Soul-Slayercuesheet support: on
04:26:35Tambuthx man :)
04:30:26Soul-Slayer240x320 VS 128x128... I used to thing my H10 had a pretty nice screen o.0
04:31:00JdGordonjhMikeS: hey, thanks for fixing the radio debug screen, just as i went to bed i thought i probably broke it again :p
04:36:43 Quit trina_limao ()
04:37:33JdGordondan_a: you round?
04:39:06TambuSoul-Slayer: : do you use cue support? I got my cue support enabled by putting it in the config manuall and i think it's working as my .cue files are no longer show up in directories with mp3 files. but when I play the mp3 I don't see anything to indicate cue is working ie fwd just beeps at me.
04:41:23Soul-SlayerI don't, no, but have you read the documentation for it carefully?
04:41:50Tambuwell the wiki anyway. and the forums but they were mostly about adding cue support.
04:42:27Tambufrom what I can tell I should be able to press fwd/prev to change through the cuesheet and it said something about showing tick marks on the progress bar.. (my theme might be blocking that though)
04:42:32Nico_PTambu: have you restarted your player ?
04:43:04TambuNico_P: a couple times. i am pretty sure cue support is working as my .cue files aren't showing up in directories where they were before.
04:43:15Soul-SlayerThey are named the same as your MP3's yes?
04:43:22Soul-Slayereg sample.mp3 and sample.cue
04:43:47TambuHere is a though when you put the MP3 name in the cuesheet do you have to explictly list the path? ie mine is /AudioBooks/AudioBook.mp3
04:44:18TambuSoul-Slayer hrm.. I had it that way before but I think I changed it since it had spaces in it (this was before I figured out the cue enable) wasn't working. Lemme try that again.
04:45:47Nico_PTambu: what's important is that the cue and mp3 files have the same name. the filename listed in the cuesheet isn't evenr ead
04:45:49Soul-SlayerAnd I don't think path has to be specified no
04:46:03TambuNico_P ok great thats my problem then... fixing it.

04:54:15Tambudon't know.. my only concern left is I wish rockbox would interface with my alpine car stereo like the apple os did.. but thats probably some proprietary bs.. perhaps I can get an audio in cable for it.
04:55:11SoapTambu, the interface is known and documented. Someone who cares enough (you?) needs to do it.
04:56:07safetydanSoap, I didn't think there was documentation for the accessory protocol?
04:56:13TambuSoap hrm.. I'm not much of developer.. but perhaps :) When yous ay known and documented you don't have any of the info do you?
04:57:52scorchesafetydan: there is a bit about it in the ipl wiki, but that is about it
04:58:21Soapothers more wise than I have said it's enough (the protocol documentation)

05:00:44saratogasafetydan: the protocol is well documented (its just a serial port so anyone with a PC can record what it sends and figure it out with a little efffort)
05:00:55saratogaits just that we don't have a working serial port on any rockbox devices
05:01:01saratogaat least that i know of
05:01:16safetydanAh, so is there information on programming the controller for the serial port on the iPod?

05:04:50safetydanHrm, so we have the documentation. I'm kind of surprised no one's even attempted it yet.
05:05:45kkurbjunjhmikeS, I think I found a bug in the gigabeat bootloader that may save some extra power, but I have no idea how much savings to expect, I was just wondering if you still had a setup for measuring power.
05:08:17kkurbjunthere's an option to disable the clock to the sdram when it's not being accessed and it looks like toshiba set the wrong bit, they set a reserved bit next to it, and it's recommended to set it so the clock to the memory stops when it's not being accessed. I have it turned on in my player and it seems to work fine.

05:10:43Soul-SlayerDoesn't sound like it would save hours and hours, but every little helps I suppose, if you think it's actually saving
05:12:37kkurbjunI havn't used it enough to know how much it saves, I am not going to commit it right now though because it requires a new bootloader and build of rockbox at the moment

05:39:35JdGordon.. the config.h says thats the rtc for the sansa

05:42:27JdGordonany chance you might be able to get it going if you have some time? (or pass the DS so i can try?)
05:42:58jhMikeSI don't think I can pass the datasheet around

05:43:16JdGordonif you get a achance I would be very gratefull
05:43:36jhMikeSI'm trying to see if that can be added...gimme a sec
05:45:55chrisjs169i didn't see a bug report in the tracker, but could someone confirm that the sansa returns a divide by zero error by going to settings -> general settings -> system -> battery -> battery capacity?
05:46:48jhMikeShmmm...I'm seeing nothing about a wakeup alarm
05:47:28jhMikeSchrisjs169: sure does

05:56:15JdGordonchrisjs169: fixed, did you open a report?
05:56:23saratogawe don't use frequency scaling, so that probably has something to do with it
05:56:43chrisjs169JdGordon: nope, didn't have a chance to since the problem was found so fast :P
05:56:46saratogathe OF can probably decode mp3 at 40MHz or so, verses rockbox at 300MHz
05:56:58kkurbjunsaratoga, does the of use frequency scaling?
05:57:02JdGordonchrisjs169: ok cool
05:57:23saratogakkurbjun: I can't imagine they'd make an mp3 that had the clock frequency locked at 300MHz
05:57:43jhMikeSkkurbjun: until pcm runs for the first time. it drops from 115 to 72 or so after stopping.
05:58:26kkurbjunhuh, thats interesting
05:58:47jhMikeSkkurbjun: but the 115 also shows up just before the HD shuts off
05:59:02kkurbjunit wouldn't supprise me if they ran at a locked frequency
05:59:33kkurbjunevery time the hd shuts off?
05:59:42jhMikeSI think somethings not being shut off that gets shut off after calling audio_stop
05:59:45jhMikeSyes
06:00
06:00:00jhMikeSJust for a second.
06:00:31jhMikeSIt drops from the running mA to 115 back to the stopped value
06:01:03saratogahow much of a spec sheet do we have for the Gigabeat's CPU?
06:01:04jhMikeSexcept on a cold boot it just stays at the 115
06:01:29kkurbjunsaratoga, a pretty good one, its a SOC the cpu is an arm 920t

06:02:08 Quit Buschel ()
06:02:30kkurbjundid they just release different speed grades?
06:02:46kkurbjunif so there's a good chance they'll run much higher

06:03:02jhMikeSthe F is -30
06:03:18kkurbjunalot of manufacturers just downbin especially once the process is stable
06:03:56saratogathe spec sheet doesn't suggest what could be on?
06:04:05jhMikeSI was thinking of trying 400 and doing a check

06:04:48kkurbjunsaratoga, there's not much of an indication how much each part consumes
06:05:12jhMikeSIt has a mA chart in the DS
06:05:23saratogaso the sheets don't cover the perhiperals ?
06:05:33kkurbjunyes, I saw that, but it doesn't cover everything
06:05:51jhMikeSwhy would the core datasheet cover a cypress ATA chip or the like?
06:05:51kkurbjunfor example this sdram bit, I guess that's more independent of the cpu though I suppose
06:06:25saratogajhMikeS: the ata isn't on the SOC?
06:08:23kkurbjunjhmikes, I'm trying to find the 4k sram on the gigabeats - it's supposed to be at 0x40000000 and that's what I see in my disassemblies of the of bootloader, but when I try and write/read from that address range all I get is 0's - do you know of any other ways to remap addresses than the mmu on the gigabeat
06:09:23jhMikeSactually it's there iirc, but the USB / ATA bridge is separate
06:10:00jhMikeSkkurbjun: I've never looked at using the mmu
06:11:11kkurbjunwell, I'm not really concerned about the mmu, I'm actually using physical addresses, but it's not where I'm looking so I was wondering if there may have been a different way that it was remapped that I'm missing
06:12:08chrisjs169I'm trying to patch apps/recorder/recording.c and make is complaining about AUDIO_SRC_LINEIN - was that renamed to AUDIO_SRC_MIC?
06:12:57jhMikeSchrisjs169: no...linein is an external source and mic is just an internal microphone
06:14:45kkurbjunjhmikes, I wonder if that spike when the ata is being turned off may be related to the circuit that's used for disabling the usb/ata bridge.. do you know if that happens in the of also?
06:14:49kkurbjunthe spike that is
06:15:09jhMikeSit looks to me like boot internal SRAM starts 4KB _before_ 0x40000000
06:15:14chrisjs169jhMikeS: that's kind of what I thought, but it's sort of confusing me, as linein is only in recording.c three times (one's in a comment) in the original file, but even so, it compiles fine. Add the patch (recording enhancements) and make errors out
06:15:33jhMikeSkkurbjun: no idea about OF...I've never even seen it
06:16:11jhMikeSchrisjs169: perhaps go to the REP forum thread and ask mmmm about it
06:16:51kkurbjunjhmikes, that might be it, there's definately something there and I can write to it

06:24:31jhMikeSI'm thinking theres a shutoff being skipped or something but I'm totally making wild guesses but the 115 coming up at cold boost and just before disk shutoff rings as more than coincidental and worth looking into further.

08:37:33scorcheyou are supposed to run it fromthe command line, but it isnt up to date anywat, so it is a futile attempt at the moment (although it could have been updated and i missed the memo...)

08:38:35scorcheyou just said that...
08:39:32webguest46hmm.. Well in that case does that mean theres no way to convert ipod database to rockbox at the moment?

09:49:29safetydanJdGordon, well then you'll have to add a few drawing functions I'd say.
09:49:47JdGordon:( dont really want to...
09:50:10Falco98my GF just put rockbox onto her ipod 4g greyscale...
09:50:20Falco98and is majorly confused about some things
09:50:35Falco98and because i don't own an ipod, i'm not used to the seemingly-random things they tend to do
09:50:42safetydanJdGordon, you'd just have to cut and paste from rockpaint :)
09:50:52MonkeyTamerFalco98: shoot
09:50:54markunFalco98: but you do have a rockbox player?
09:51:02Falco98yep
09:51:10Falco98an iriver h140
09:51:25scorchewhat are these "seemingly random things"?
09:51:36Falco98well
09:52:16Falco98really certain things pertaining to it having been largely used as a standard ipod thus far,... like, it has a massive collection of itunes music, and we're stressing over how exactly to deal with that
09:52:25Falco98she doesn't really know whether it's charging when it's plugged in
09:52:54MonkeyTamerthe battery icon should have an animation
09:53:08Falco98she reports that there is none
09:53:24MonkeyTamercharging via the wall or USB>
09:53:39scorcheone can always go into the debug screen to the battery screen (i forgot the name) and watch it to see if the voltage increases
09:53:48MonkeyTamerthat's definitely an idea as well

09:54:17scorchehello
09:54:34Falco98scorche can you re-post that last line, above?
09:54:40Falco98O:-)
09:54:42scorche<scorche> one can always go into the debug screen to the battery screen (i forgot the name) and watch it to see if the voltage increases
09:54:53Falco98thx
09:54:57MonkeyTamerwhat other random things: has jdgordon been leaving messages like: "jdgordon was here" ?
09:55:17JdGordon?
09:55:18Falco98lol
09:55:44MonkeyTamerjdgordon: just a joke with respect to Falco98's question
09:56:08Falco98well.. one thing was, she ran the rockbox program that converts the existing itunes DB file to a rockbox file,but it seemed to not really make any difference
09:56:09MonkeyTamerforgot that it would ping you
09:56:15*JdGordon thourouly confused
09:56:38MonkeyTamerno worries ;)
09:57:20scorchemake any difference to what?
09:57:22MonkeyTamerwhat do you mean?
09:57:40Falco98any difference in the way it seemed to work, i guess
09:58:01scorcheplease be more specific
09:58:01MonkeyTamerdoes anything show up upon selecting database?
09:58:22Falco98she'd already enabled database mode previously though..
09:58:34Falco98rockinfree: feel free to pitch in ;-)
09:58:40scorcheand did it display any kind of splash saying anything?
09:58:44MonkeyTamerbut is there an error? does it not change?
09:58:53rockinfreei'm in the debug battery screen now, and it seems to be increasing
09:59:15scorchethen it is charging
09:59:24rockinfreeyeah, so that's good
10:00
10:00:10MonkeyTamerplease provide a bit more specifics on what is wrong with the database
10:00:28scorcheMonkeyTamer: no need to repeat me =P
10:00:32Falco98let me lay it out again from the start:
10:00:42Falco98she had DB mode on from the beginning..
10:00:44MonkeyTamersorry, I just wanted to reiterate
10:01:02Falco98then went and ran the db conversion script, and copied those files over
10:01:14Falco98should it have changed anything?
10:01:17scorcheFalco98: was teh DB mode working int he beginning?
10:01:28Falco98i believe so
10:01:34rockinfreeit was as far as i know
10:01:40scorcheare you talking about the itunes to tagcache script?
10:01:45rockinfreeyeah
10:01:56scorchei *think* that is outdated atm
10:02:00Falco98sorry for not nailing the name correctly :-P
10:02:06MonkeyTamerWhat's wrong with the built-in database?
10:02:15scorcheFalco98: well we have lots of "the scripts" =P
10:02:16MonkeyTamerwouldn't it be easier to run it within rockbox?
10:02:20*Falco98 has never wanted nor needed to mess with DB or tagcache stuff :-P
10:02:26rockinfreeohh okay
10:02:31scorcheMonkeyTamer: people find it faster to run ont he computer
10:02:43scorchebut as i said, i dont believe it is in a working state atm
10:03:06scorcheFalco98: aye...i disable it in my builds...
10:03:14rockinfreethen that would explain it
10:03:41Falco98though if a user has already enabled DB mode and built a DB from their tags, wouldn't running the itunes-to-rockbox convertor be just redundant?
10:04:16scorchewell, updates...
10:04:23Falco98or is my inexperience with db mode hurting me once again :-P
10:04:33scorcheif you hadnt made any changes to the files on there, it would be
10:05:10Falco98gotcha
10:05:42Falco98so.. could she still use itunes to transfer music, without fear of it obliterating rockbox?
10:06:02scorcheit will never obliterate rockbox unless she chooses to restore
10:06:23Falco98(and, completely separate question, can an ipod be powered off during charging? the iriver has no issue with that so it doesn't make sense to me that any other players might :-P)
10:06:28scorcheshe will have to reinstall just the bootloader portion if she updates the apple firmware
10:06:38rockinfreeso itunes auto-syncing won't hurt anything?
10:07:19scorcheright, although having a sane file structure and not depending on a proprietary piece of software is always nice
10:07:54rockinfreeyeah :-P i'm up for ditching itunes, though, if i decide to keep rockbox
10:08:04MonkeyTamergranted, that can take quite a while to do
10:08:22rockinfreetrue ...
10:08:40scorchewell, that depends on how you have it
10:09:04MonkeyTamerIt's at least a job where you have to dedicate a chunk of time, depending on how bad it is to begin with, and how significant certain tags are
10:09:04scorcheerrr...how you have things set up and arranged
10:09:29scorcheif you have a backup of all your music in a sane file structure on your computer already, it isnt

10:09:44MonkeyTamerthat is true
10:10:14Falco98though if a certain user's main computer only has usb 1.1, it magnifies the time needed for re-transfers by quite a bit...

10:10:49scorcheFalco98: what else is it doing while you are sleeping? =P

10:11:13ansivirusmine cleans my house while i sleep
10:11:22Falco98well the other thing: what (if any) functionality does an ipod dock get, with rockbox?
10:11:23*MonkeyTamer sleeps with his
10:11:29Falco98i mean like.. the remote for my iriver works fantastically
10:11:38scorcheSiebaZ: please disable those scripts for this channel..
10:11:40*SiebaZ is away (somwhere over the rainbow xD)
10:11:51ansivirushmm
10:11:54MonkeyTameryou can play music through
10:12:03scorcheFalco98: depends on the dock
10:12:06Falco98but i'm not sure if they've handled that for ipodStuff(tm) yet
10:12:10Falco98she has a scion
10:12:12MonkeyTamerI'm not sure on all, but I know mine would charge
10:12:19Falco98and when the ipod dock is connected, it's nearly brilliant
10:12:31scorcheoh...as in she hooks it up to her car?
10:12:37Falco98yeap
10:12:47MonkeyTamerdon't all of them at the very least output music?
10:12:52scorchethen it should charge and it *might* output the sound
10:12:58scorcheit depends on how it is set up
10:13:11scorche(how the manufacturer set it up)
10:13:18Falco98gotcha
10:13:19Falco98well
10:13:45Falco98with the apple firmware, the ipod's screen shows a Scion logo and all control is taken away and given to the car's factory radio
10:14:05Falco98and the radio display shows track info and stuff, and gives controls
10:14:08scorcheouch...doesnt sound promising, but you never know until you try
10:14:13Falco98yeah
10:14:34Falco98i mean.. the logos and shit sound far-fetched, but i figured there might be a chance someone's working on the general control scheme
10:14:35rockinfreeyeah, was gonna see what it did tomorrow
10:15:40MonkeyTamerthat scion thing sounds like a sky net alpha
10:16:10*Falco98 needs more explanation on that one :-P
10:16:16MonkeyTamerterminator
10:16:32Falco98ooh whoops, the reference slipped me :-P
10:16:55Falco98but yeah it's freaky except in a cool way
10:16:56MonkeyTamerhehe, it wasn't the easiest reference
10:17:56Falco98yeah
10:17:56Falco98hehe
10:18:04MonkeyTamerI haven't used the iPod 4G for a while, at least it's getting more stable
10:18:09Falco98um.. oh, so.. can it be powered-off during charging?
10:18:14MonkeyTamerno
10:18:21Falco98ah, weird
10:18:38Falco98what happens if it's off and you plug it in?
10:18:40MonkeyTamerit restarts and goes into the disk mode charging screen
10:18:42Falco98or does it just not charge?
10:19:16MonkeyTamerit definitely will still charge
10:19:44rockinfreeyeah
10:19:51MonkeyTameryou just might expect to have to charge it a bit more :D
10:20:11rockinfreeheh, yeah i noticed it seemed to use more battery power
10:20:22Falco98you guys told me it should animate (or at least indicate) when it's charging?
10:20:38MonkeyTamerbetter that than the previous instabilities related to freezing
10:20:46Falco98rockinfree reports that it doesn't
10:21:09MonkeyTamerwhen it's "off" or on?
10:21:37MonkeyTamerare you using the USB or the wall
10:21:59rockinfreewell if the charger's plugged in, it's always on ... using the wall
10:22:35MonkeyTamerdoes it show the disk mode screen?
10:22:54MonkeyTameras in the general black and white screen with just a battery symbol
10:23:06rockinfreeno, it just goes to the main start up screen
10:23:11MonkeyTameroh ok
10:23:22MonkeyTamerdo you have the statusbar enabled?
10:23:32Falco98i guess i was referring to the battery indicator not showing..
10:23:53rockinfreei think so
10:24:00Falco98MonkeyTamer: that's generally WPS dependant right?
10:24:06Falco98like in boxes and iamp...
10:24:07MonkeyTamernot necessarily
10:24:11 Quit perplexity (Read error: 113 (No route to host))
10:24:12MonkeyTamerthat's just a setting
10:24:21MonkeyTamerit's usually in the theme
10:24:49Falco98well aren't the WPS files actually what determine whether the statusbar is on or not, in a theme?
10:24:50MonkeyTameryou'd know if the statusbar is on if you see a time in the top right
10:24:58Falco98(at least on the WPS itself)
10:25:04rockinfreeyeah, then it's on
10:25:20MonkeyTamersorry for the semantics, but the theme is the CFG file
10:25:21Falco98oh, the 4g has a clock?
10:25:27rockinfreeyep
10:25:35MonkeyTamerthat will state whether the statusbar is on or off
10:25:42MonkeyTamerthe WPS is totally separate
10:25:55Falco98the theme chooses a wps, no?
10:26:04MonkeyTameryes, it does
10:26:13MonkeyTamerthe WPS does not influence the statusbar though
10:26:17Falco98in the WPS itself, in the first few lines, there are commands to display the statusbar or not
10:26:25Falco98as far as i remember?
10:26:33MonkeyTamerthat would be the .cfg file
10:26:37MonkeyTamerwhich links to the WPS
10:27:05MonkeyTamerthe .cfg file is the theme
10:27:30MonkeyTamerI know it's a bit overly specific, but I don't want to give wrong info
10:27:45MonkeyTamerrockinfree: does the battery indicator show in the WPS?
10:28:06rockinfreeyeah it's there
10:28:23MonkeyTameryou can be safe to know it's charging then
10:28:35MonkeyTamerthe indicator on the statusbar is a really small icon
10:28:35Falco98MonkeyTamer: i've made my own variations of WPS files before, i just thought i could remember seeing the specific lines where they set the statusbar on or off... but i can't remember clearly
10:28:51rockinfreeokay, good to know :)
10:28:54MonkeyTamertry taking a quick look if you have a chance
10:29:06MonkeyTamerit's referenced in the .cfg
10:29:21MonkeyTamersomething like - statusbar: <on or off>
10:29:24Falco98rockinfree: which theme do you have on atm?
10:29:32Falco98MonkeyTamer: yeah..
10:29:39*Falco98 is just confused :-P
10:29:41rockinfree"boxes"
10:30:02MonkeyTamerit's in the .cfg file listed in the 'themes' folder
10:30:03RedbrevaFalco98: you mean the %wd tag in .wps - Status Bar Disabled
10:30:06Falco98does the battery indicator change at all between when you have it plugged-in and not plugged-in?
10:30:17Falco98Redbreva: that could be it..
10:30:34MonkeyTameroh, I may have misunderstood you
10:30:59MonkeyTamerI was referring to the statusbar in the menu
10:31:26Falco98yeah.. i think we were both right but not meeting in the middle :-P
10:31:46*MonkeyTamer can't remember which theme is boxes
10:32:34rockinfreei can change it to something else if it helps :-P
10:32:55Falco98rockinfree: did you see my last question, though? O:-)
10:33:33rockinfreeoh, no it doesn't change
10:34:13Falco98MonkeyTamer: is that a consideration?
10:34:33MonkeyTamerno little plug next to the battery in the statusbar?

10:35:08noob1but I jsut wanted to make sure that rockbox does support flac on the e200 series
10:35:10rockinfreenope, nothing
10:35:20noob1is that correct?
10:35:32noob1I tried looking on thewebsite and manual
10:35:37MonkeyTamerthat's a bit odd
10:35:38noob1but I didn't find anything
10:35:50MonkeyTamerI find that the little icon is fairly useless anyways though
10:36:08MonkeyTamerusually the WPS is easier to identify whether it's charging
10:36:23Falco98noob1: does the little graph on the build status page say anything?
10:36:27MonkeyTamersorry noob1
10:36:42MonkeyTamerI believe it supports flac

10:38:21Falco98hm, i can specifically remember seeing a graph of what targets had what formats supported or what bugs, but can't find it now
10:38:49MonkeyTamerthe link I listed has a chart
10:38:55scorcheMonkeyTamer: no..they all do...just not all are realtime at all levels
10:39:20Falco98MonkeyTamer: when you say "usually the WPS is easier to identify whether it's charging", what exactly do you mean?
10:39:20MonkeyTameroh, I understand that; I just meant that it's not really feasible for some
10:39:42MonkeyTamerI meant it's easier to see the bitmap on the WPS than the little icon on the statusbar
10:39:53Falco98but that's what she says isn't changing...
10:40:00Falco98i think?
10:40:07rockinfreeit doesn't change on both places
10:40:27scorcheis she running the latest build?...i recall somehting about it not showing that it is charging in the past
10:40:47rockinfreei just installed it today
10:41:02scorcheperhaps that bug is still around then
10:41:22rockinfreehm okay
10:41:35MonkeyTamerI don't still have a 4G, so I can't provide any insight, sorry
10:42:31rockinfreewell what matters is that it's working
10:43:24Falco98yup :)
10:43:29MonkeyTameris it a color or a grayscale by the way?

10:43:45MonkeyTamerthere is a listing on the tracker about that
10:43:54MonkeyTamerbut almost a year old
10:44:11Falco98heh
10:44:23Falco98is there anything known about random memory-call errors?
10:44:38Falco98rockinfree: have you had any more of those, btw?
10:44:48rockinfreenope, just the 2 times so far
10:44:59MonkeyTamerdoes it freeze?
10:45:26rockinfreeyeah, have to reboot to fix it
10:45:29noob1man I wish there were more wps for the sansa
10:45:38scorchethen make more
10:45:41MonkeyTamernoob1: go make one
10:45:43MonkeyTamerdarn it
10:45:49MonkeyTameralways beat me to the answer
10:45:56MonkeyTamer:p
10:45:58Falco98lol
10:46:00scorchei have my slow days
10:46:14Falco98is the sansa a unique screen size, or something?
10:46:22MonkeyTamernot really
10:46:32MonkeyTamerit's just the opposite of an ipod 4g
10:46:53Falco98what, rotated 90 degrees?
10:46:56MonkeyTameryes
10:47:00noob1lol
10:47:10noob1if only I was that good
10:47:18MonkeyTameryou don't have to be good
10:47:26noob1I wonder how the rockampSansa Blue
10:47:31noob1looks like
10:47:41MonkeyTameryou can always try porting one as well
10:47:48noob1I was thinking
10:48:02noob1I wish that there was skin that looked like the sana one
10:48:09scorchethen make one...
10:48:14Falco98making a skin isn't too hard..
10:48:19noob1ok
10:48:24Falco98you just need to find an image file
10:48:25scorcheand they are themes, not skins =P
10:48:30noob1ok
10:48:32noob1themes
10:48:33noob1fines
10:48:33Falco98well
10:48:38Falco98WPS, not theme
10:48:43noob1wps
10:48:45Falco98theme is just a collection of fonts and WPS
10:48:47scorchewps is just the screen
10:49:06MonkeyTamerthat's what I was trying to tell you earlier Falco98
10:49:31Falco98yeah i know, i was mostly talking about something else though :-P
10:49:37noob1man I jsut want flac support on the sansa
10:49:45noob1but keep the pretty pics
10:49:51noob1of the UI
10:49:52MonkeyTamerCan't make a WPS without making a theme though
10:50:10MonkeyTamerthere is flac support
10:50:16scorchehttp://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/DevConWest2007#Themes will lay out the differences int he terms for you =)
10:50:22Falco98er
10:50:35Falco98you can make a WPS without making a theme, in fact
10:50:39scorchenoob1: rockbox's look is able to be changed as we said
10:50:53MonkeyTamerthen how do you reference the WPS
10:51:02Falco98choose the WPS manually from the menu
10:51:26MonkeyTameroh, you're right
10:51:31MonkeyTamerforgot about that setting
10:51:34Falco98hehe
10:51:36Falco98like
10:51:45MonkeyTamer"browse .wps files"
10:51:46Falco98as long as the last theme's font is acceptable
10:51:56Falco98or maybe you can choose the font manually too? haven't tried that...
10:52:04Falco98but i made a WPS called "iAmp2"
10:52:06scorcheyou can
10:52:17rockinfreeyou can do that too (w/ the font)
10:52:37Falco98which is just like the one packaged with the official builds, except non-retarded in certain things.. i got rid of the graphical volume and battery sliders, and replaced them with the numeric versions
10:52:49noob1yea I see
10:53:17MonkeyTamerI still have to upload a theme I created for the Gigabeat
10:53:25noob1hummm I will rockbox one day support some .h264???
10:53:27MonkeyTamerI've been too lazy to bother though
10:53:32scorchenoob1: not likely
10:53:40noob1aww
10:53:47noob1that would of made my day if it did
10:53:48scorcheMonkeyTamer: well, the new repository will be up in a couple days
10:54:03MonkeyTameryeah, I figureed I would wait on that

11:01:58Falco98how about a status indicator?
11:02:21Falco98i've found that if i hold stop for several seconds before unplugging, the player just turns off when i unplug it instead of starting up
11:02:50Falco98(though i forget whether that's true in the rockbox USB screen or in the from-poweroff usb mode)
11:03:25Falco98but if what i'm saying is right, or controllable, then there could be some control for whether the player will start, or just shut back down, when the USB is unplugged?
11:03:36Falco98and an indicator for this...

11:08:22Falco98i.e. it would test if the next song on the playlist is actually the next track in an album

11:09:46Falco98i'm making an assumption that someone might have their music in a sane folder/naming scheme
11:10:11LloreanWhat's the feature for?
11:10:17Falco98but i was just saying that as an example for what i want to test for, not that it would be an absolute test
11:10:51davinamine is album_artist/album/artist_trackname

12:06:35Domonokyif you have a working fix, make a patch or commit it :-)
12:06:50Domonokystrange, normally wx has no problem with the double backslash
12:06:58stripwaxDomonoky- well, I don't, that's the problem .. as soon as I do, I will, don't worry
12:07:08*stripwax still doesn't have svn access
12:07:30Domonokystripwax: put the patch into FS and i will commit it for you then..
12:07:30stripwaxI think your code on pastebin won't do the right thing for just empty directory entries, it will just create the subdir, no? not the actual dir.
12:07:39stripwaxI will, when I have one.. ! :-)
12:08:45Domonokystripwax: it should also create the empty dir.. it think wxGetPathOnly should return the dir, if it only contains a dir.. :-)
12:09:01stripwaxDomonoky - wx doesn't know if it's a dir or a filename though right?
12:09:37stripwaxe.g. if the entry is Directory only and its name is ".rockbox/backdrops" you want to create ".rockbox/backdrops" but path will return ".rockbox"
12:10:18Domonokyare you sure the wxPathOnly only returns ".rockbox" and not ".rockbox/backdrops" ?

12:13:47Domonokyyou are right, i dont know.. :-)
12:13:50JdGordonLlorean: have you got a player?
12:14:23LloreanDo you mean "Archos Jukebox Player" or do you mean "Anything that runs Rockbox"?
12:14:39stripwaxwoah. you're right. wxPathOnly works but wxFileName::GetPath doesn't. I naively assumed wx would have a single implementation but it looks like it has two, one of which is buggy
12:14:43*stripwax hates wx already
12:15:00JdGordonLlorean: the first
12:15:10LloreanNo
12:15:14stripwaxbut for me, wxPathOnly definitely returns .rockbox not .rockbox\backdrops for the ".rockbox\backdrops" entry

12:52:48Domonokyinstalling rockbox works, but i got an error with the theme install, (also unzip) there is now a !triple! \ .. :-/
12:52:58stripwax_wow
12:53:06stripwax_so the exact opposite of what I'm getting
12:53:22stripwax_which theme? I used "Mixtape".
12:53:29stripwax_suspect differences in how the zips were built
12:53:38stripwax_although can't explain why rockbox install works for you and not me
12:54:11Domonokynow it fails for everything
12:54:16stripwax_?
12:55:07stripwax_ok, rockbox zip file definitely has IsDir entries, and Mixtape theme definitely does not. so that's at least one difference
12:55:59Domonokybut now, unzipping fails everytime for me, there is something wrong with the paths.
12:56:01stripwax_imho we should only add a path separator onto the end of DestDir if it doesn't already have one. my destdir is already "G:\" so rbutil constructs "G:\\"
12:56:25Domonokywe should never add one.. i think..
12:57:04stripwax_there needs to be at least one, either DestDir has one or it doesn't. DestDir can be specified by the user, who might just enter G:
12:57:10stripwax_^at least^exactly
12:57:28Domonokyokey, so we should check..
12:58:40stripwax_oops, there is a bug in my patch too. IsDir entries should always continue, not just if the dir needed creating. my bad, I'll fix that one.
12:58:51stripwax_Want me to fix the path separators too or are you already on that?
13:00
13:00:07Domonokyi am debugging it at the moment..
13:02:48Domonokythe continue fix, fixed everything for me..
13:03:47stripwax_patch updated
13:04:40***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
13:04:42Domonokyso no need to fix the paths.. atleats for me it works :-)
13:04:51stripwax_Domonoky - I don't understand how the first install of rockbox worked for you though .. and failed the second time?
13:05:29Domonokyi also dont know, but that was before the continue fix..
13:06:00Domonokystripwax_: your real name for the credits please ? :-)
13:06:01stripwax_it was, but before the continue fix it should have always failed, I think
13:06:14stripwax_Domonoky - I'm already in Credits
13:06:19stripwax_and have been for a long time!
13:06:31Domonokythere are extra credits for rbutil :-)

16:46:16GodEaterNick_Brackley: mpegplayer.cfg in .rockbox/rocks
16:47:51GodEaterNick_Brackley: for future reference, the easiest way to search the irc logs is to enter "site:www.rockbox.org" followed by your search terms into Google - that's how I do it - so you don't need to know when :)

16:53:22Nick_BrackleyGodEater: yes it has been broken for a couple of days now
16:53:48GodEaterNick_Brackley: so I assume you usually upgrade by deleting your .rockbox directory first ?
16:54:23Nick_BrackleyGodEater: yes, i thought this was good practice?
16:54:25*GodEater doesn't do this - he just writes over the top of the old one
16:54:36GodEaterthat way you don't delete your config files
16:54:47Nick_Brackleyoh ok
16:54:53GodEaterand anything which needs to get overwrritten will by, whilst things which don't - won't be :)
16:55:01GodEateranyway - I've got to pop out now - later all.
16:55:26Nick_BrackleyGodEater: inserting a blank config file does nothing, i still get the same *panic* stkov main

18:26:35hiromi886I sync'd some music files from itunes, and rockbox just doesn't detect it
18:26:42hiromi886Is there something special I have to do?
18:27:03stripwaxhiromi886 - are you using "Database" view?
18:27:08stripwaxyou might need to update the database

18:27:53hiromi886Yeah I'm using database, I stuck a couple songs in to test it
18:28:02hiromi886And only one showed up and it wouldn't play
18:28:18stripwaxwhat audio format is it? if it's DRM, rockbox won't be able to play it..
18:28:41hiromi886Its just mp3
18:28:53hiromi886When I check in itunes and everything, its there
18:29:03hiromi886Its just that when I go to database->artists and find it
18:29:06hiromi886It doesn't play/show up
18:29:09stripwaxdid you get any error when trying to play that mp3 on your ipod? does it play in the regular Apple firmware?
18:29:14hiromi886Ya
18:29:20hiromi886Plays fine normally
18:29:52stripwaxso it plays when you boot to Apple but doesn't play when you boot to Rockbox? and the other file doesn't show up at all? very weird! could you post that mp3 file that doesn't work somewhere?
18:31:40hiromi886Hold on, let me make sure its not a noobie error on my part ;p
18:31:44stripwaxok ;-)
18:31:48hiromi886I just got this rockbox so I'm still gettin used to it
18:32:50hiromi886doh, there it is
18:32:54stripwaxheh
18:32:59hiromi886the long select on database gives the update menu ;p
18:33:01Domonokystripwax: its is manually build..
18:33:37stripwaxDomonoky - I think I'll trust your code::block builds more than my cygwin builds :)
18:33:49Domonokystripwax: if you plan to pput a new version to the wiki, push the version.. :-)
18:34:06stripwaxhiromi886 - yep, and you can also set it to automatically update each time
18:34:07hiromi886Now just a fast second question if you don't mind hehe
18:34:14hiromi886Is there a way to make the menus easier to navigate?
18:34:19stripwax"easier" how?
18:34:42stripwaxDomonoky - I'd have to update the version number, and I don't have svn write access .. :)
18:34:52Domonoky:-)
18:35:00stripwaxso it's best if you could do that ..
18:35:12Domonokyi will do it later..
18:35:21stripwax(or if any dev is listening .. any chance I could get write access? pretty please? :-)
18:35:25hiromi886Um, like the normal menu, I always overshoot the selection, cuz the fonts super small
18:35:35hiromi886Is there a way to make the menu font maybe 1 or 2 points bigger?
18:35:38stripwaxhiromi886 - well you can make the fonts larger of course. check the manual
18:35:57Domonokystripwax: i already recommended you .. :-)
18:36:05hiromi886Ah okie thanks ^^
18:36:22stripwaxrockbox uses the same font for menus, filebrowser, database and wps screen - currently you only have one font at a time. but you can pick as large a font as you like!
18:36:32stripwaxDomonoky - thanks! :-)
18:37:24hiromi886Ah alright
18:37:51hiromi886I threw together a wps, and was wondering if the main wps song screen could have 1 font, but the menu have bigger
18:38:01hiromi886But if its all 1 font, I can always juggle things a bit I guess
18:38:05stripwaxhiromi886 - not yet, I'm afraid, sorry..
18:38:22stripwaxI think there's an unofficial patch for that but I don't know how well it works

20:32:50PaulJamheh, i just found a funny behaviour. if you select database and it asks you to initialize and you abort and then start playback. if you stop playback from the wps it asks again to initialise and if you abort it resumes playback instead of golng to the main menu.

20:40:17lymecaLlorean: I only have one 30GB 4G iPod and it's stuck in HFS+ land. I would love to upload it to the wiki and help out, but... chicken and egg problem!
20:41:16saratogayou could use a linux or windows pc to fix it
20:41:44bluebrotherlymeca: you might try using a parition table for a 4G of different size and then change the data partition
20:42:07saratogaalso, I don't understand why its not possible to format an ipod as fat32 in macos
20:42:08lymecasaratoga: I only have a GNU/Linux machine available to me.

20:44:42bluebrotherI guess so.
20:44:44lymecaDo just delete the second partition
20:44:51lymecaAnd then perhaps mkfs.vfat /dev/sdd2
20:44:58lymecawhere sdd is the iPod
20:45:18bluebrotherwell, I just wrote the MBR to the card, then deleted the 2nd partition and created a new one, spawning all of the remaining space on the card
20:45:38bluebrotheryou just need to make sure it doesn't include the first partition as that is marked empty.
20:45:53 Join maffe [0] (n=maffe@barmen.interhost.no)
20:46:16bluebrotherbut in my case there wasn't anything on the card −− there is a slight chance that this might destroy loading of the OF
20:46:58bluebrotherbut for loading the OF I just dd'ed the firmware file to the empty partition
20:47:06lymecaWhen the iPod is HFS+ formatted there are 3 partitions
20:47:09lymecawhich is confusing

20:47:33bluebrothernever had access to a HFS+ formatted Ipod
20:47:41bluebrotherso I can't tell anything about that ...
20:47:45lymecaFAT32 is simple: MBR, partition 1 with Rockbox boot loader and Apple firmware, and partition 2 with Rockbox itself and data.
20:48:06lymecaIs that right?
20:48:14bluebrotheryes.
20:48:21bluebrotherat least afaik ;-)
20:48:57lymecaIf I had a legit partition table for my iPod's size I could get the bin file and dd it to /dev/sdd correct?
20:49:02lymecaAs in not sdd1
20:49:13lymecaBut just dd partitiontable.bin /dev/sdd
20:49:19lymecaThe block device itself
20:49:20bluebrotheryes. The partition table is the first 512 bytes of the disk
20:49:41lymecaIt's slightly confusing because of HFS+ formatted iPods having three partitions
20:49:52lymecaI might be inclined to dd it to the /dev/sdd1
20:50:54bluebrotherno, to convert the partition table you need to dd it to the disk itself, not any partition.
20:51:36lymecaThe block device file that represents the disk itself always is the MBR? As in /dev/sdd is the MBR and just the MBR of te iPod?
20:51:46lymecaSame with /dev/sda for my normal HDD? That is the MBR?
20:51:49GodEaterno
20:51:53 Quit entheh ("^~")
20:52:00GodEater /dev/sdd is the whole disk
20:52:08bluebrother/dev/sdd is the complete disk, starting with sector 0 (which is the mbr)
20:52:13GodEaterbut writiing to /dev/sdd1 will miss the first 512 bytes
20:52:20GodEaterand will break you ripod
20:52:39lymecaGodEater: It's still fixable... I did it on my first Rockbox install =P
20:53:02bluebrothergenerally, it will start where the first partition starts (which is not necessarily sector 1)
20:53:29lymecaOKay so if /dev/sdd is the whole disk, then /dev/sdd1 always starts 512 bytes after the start of the disk?
20:53:44lymecaJust like I can safely assume /dev/sda1 starts 512 bytes after the beginning?
20:53:47GodEaterno - as bluebrother says it'll follow the partition layout
20:54:04GodEaterso if partition one starts at 10000024 bytes - that's where /dev/sdd1 is
20:54:11lymecaOh right that depends on what data is IN the MBR
20:54:16GodEateryes
20:54:17lymecathe partition table
20:54:25bluebrotherin a (dos) partition table is a marker where the actual partition starts.
20:54:48GodEaterI guess an apple parition map works similarly
20:54:53GodEaterbut is laid out differently
20:55:02GodEateras it somehow appears as /dev/sdd1 on a Mac
20:55:11lymecaOKay so I could create a partition ttable saying partition 1 to start at 2048 bytes into the disk and end 4096 bytes into the disk, so /dev/sdd1 would refer to those 2048 bytes only?
20:55:33GodEaterlymeca: yes
20:56:04lymecaAnd the way Linux knows what /dev/sdd1 actually is is by examining the first 512 bytes on the entire device, or /dev/sdd?

20:56:29GodEaterit reads the parition table in the MBR
20:56:34lymecaOr does the partition table not need to be 512 bytes?
20:56:42lymecaCan the MBR be larger for some reason?
20:56:48bluebrotherthe partition table is always the first 512 bytes of the disk
20:56:53GodEaterthe partition tables is much smaller than 512 bytes
20:57:01GodEaterthe *MBR* is 512 bytes exactly
20:57:09GodEaterand the partition table is contained in that
20:57:17bluebrotherright. The partition table itself is only 0x40 bytes
20:57:28GodEaterlymeca: wikipedia explains this very well

21:00:31Lloreanchrisjs169: Then have them file a bug report with proper instructions for reproducing it and what SVN revision they're using when it happens, and maybe whether they have a 1.0 or 1.1 board?
21:01:35bluebrotherhmm. Does anybody know a website describing the HFS partition table? Haven't found anything :(
21:01:49GodEaterbluebrother: search for apple partition map

21:03:11lymecaOkay so once I have mbr-4g-20gb.bin all I need to do is "dd if=mbr-4g-20gb.bin of=/dev/sdd" and the contents of the .bin file will be copied to my ipod's MBR replacing the first 512 bytes of the device with what's in the .bin file.
21:03:45lymecaWhy don't I need to use "dd if=mbr-4g-20gb.bin of=/dev/sdd bs=512 count=1" like Wikipedia recommends?
21:03:59bluebrotherbecause the file is only 512 bytes
21:04:27bluebrotherand the default bs is 512 iirc.
21:04:51***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
21:04:55lymecaSo dd knows not to replace the whole sdd with 512 bytes then zeros, it just replaces however many bytes the source file is large?
21:05:27bluebrotherit replaces as much bytes as you put in (determined by your input file) or as much as you tell it to do
21:06:02bluebrotherbs is the size of the blocks it writes, and count the number. bs=512 matches disk sectors, and count=1 just writes one sector

23:30:58Bagderevening!
23:31:48Zagorcan I just take this opportunity to reinforce my "grumpy old man" image and say I'm not too happy with the menu macro mania?

23:32:02BagderI agree 100%

23:38:03bluebrotherhmm, the time screen isn't useable on the remote if the font is too big.
23:38:05peturby coincidence, I'm trying to decipher some part of that menu code atm :(
23:38:22bluebrotheror say, the last lines get truncated making it somewhat unintuitive
23:39:00peturbrb
23:39:23*bluebrother wonders how much fun that deciphering is
23:39:26Zagorpetur: yeah. i was going to do a quick hack to fix the gigabeat bass thingy. but I still haven't penetrated the web of macros...

23:43:28bluebrotherJdGordon put a wiki page up describing that "JdGordon-is-lazy-and-likes-macros™ macro system!" as he calls it ... http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/UsingTheMenuAPI
23:43:50bluebrothernot sure what I should think about this naming :o
23:44:14Zagorwell it's honest at least :)
23:44:23bluebrothertrue :)
23:45:17bluebrotheralso, macros are a great thing −− *if* you use them carefully. But I don't think I'm telling anything new ;-)
23:45:43Bagdermacros are fine, but not when used to create a whole new programming language
23:46:12Zagorthis wiki page is an excellent illustration of why macros can be bad: he just created a new language, that needs documentation.
23:46:50bluebrotheryeah, I read some really bad examples in "Expert C programming" (which is a great book btw)

23:48:14ZagorBagder: is there anything prepared in the makefiles that allows me to run the preprocessor only?
23:48:21 Part Tostada
23:48:40BagderZagor: 1) run "make V=1" 2) copy and paste the full command line and replace -c with -E ;-)
23:48:50Zagorheh, thanks
23:49:30Soul-SlayerDoes anyone understand the purpose of this patch? http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/7437
23:50:48Soul-SlayerJust sounds like it would mess up the database, aswell as cause me to accidentally delete half my songs accidentally. And there's nothing stopping them from deleting songs manually by leaving the WPS and doing it through the file tree
23:50:49ZagorSoul-Slayer: yeah, it's in the category "I know I can already do this with 4 clicks, but I want to do it in 2 clicks"
23:51:03Soul-SlayerHeh, I see
23:51:14bluebrotherand it's also triggering a known bug :)
23:51:15Zagorat least that's what it looks like to me
23:51:30Zagorbluebrother: a good reason to reject it ;)
23:51:37bluebrothermaybe the poster didn't know about the "follow playlist" option?
23:51:43bluebrotherZagor: go! go! go! ;-)
23:54:26*linuxstb thinks a delete option in the context menu makes sense..
23:55:34Soul-SlayerI can't think when I've ever needed to delete a song on-the-fly
23:55:53Soul-SlayerIt doesn't exactly hurt to leave it there, and who knows, I may like it after listening to it for a while
23:56:09Soul-SlayerAnd if I really wanted to delete it for whatever reason, the option IS there
23:56:12bluebrotherit's kinda funny to read what features are "needed"
23:56:49bluebrotherif you delete tracks frequently you could just put them into a playlist and just delete all files in that playlist when syncing.
23:56:56linuxstbIt's not something I would use, but can imagine people who copy lots of random music to their DAP, and would like to delete tracks they don't like as they're listening.
23:57:39linuxstbThe patch just adds an extra item to an array - so code-size is hardly an issue. But the related bug(s) should be fixed...
23:57:41Zagorlinuxstb: still, it's not exactly a chore to switch into the file browser and delete it
23:57:46bluebrotherIf I detect broken tracks I usually use a special playlist to find them later again.
23:57:58linuxstbe.g. FS #5642
23:58:12Soul-SlayerEspecially if you're listening to music through the file browser in the first place
23:58:20Soul-SlayerYou merely have to back out of the WPS and delete it that way
23:58:33linuxstbOnly if you're enabled follow-playlist...
23:58:38Soul-SlayerUnless it's named something weird and you can only recognise it from it's ID3 tag
