| 00:50:00 | lxx | hi all |
| 00:50:06 | lxx | i have ipod 80gb |
| 00:50:14 | lxx | i wan install rockbox |
| 00:50:37 | krazykit | i suggest reading the manual |
| 00:50:40 | tohtorijep | do it man!!! |
| 00:50:46 | krazykit | it explains how to install it |
| 00:50:57 | lxx | but i have 20gb on my ipod data files not mp3 it just 2 dvd`s |
| 00:51:15 | tohtorijep | and? |
| 00:51:32 | lxx | after rockbox install files will be ok or the deleted? |
| 00:52:02 | krazykit | rockbox does not delete any files. it will, however, alter the bootloader |
| 00:53:29 | lxx | so after bootloader files can ve delted or all will be ok and i no need to worry? |
| 00:53:55 | krazykit | what files are you talking about? |
| 00:54:32 | krazykit | rockbox requires the modified bootloader and the actual software, found in .rockbox on the player |
| 00:54:36 | * | linuxstb would worry if his ipod contained the only copies of important files |
| 00:56:57 | lxx | it not copies |
| 00:57:59 | lxx | so how do you think i need copy this two dvd`s on my pc hard drive before intalling rockbox and bootloader? |
| 00:58:47 | krazykit | it wouldn't be a bad idea. |
| 00:58:54 | linuxstb | I would say it's very unlikely anything will go wrong, but no-one can give you a guarantee. |
| 00:59:52 | HellDragon | torched |
| 01:00 |
| 01:02:58 | markun | lxx: why do you want to install rockbox? |
| 01:04:16 | lxx | i hate copy files via itunes or other software i want copy mp3`s to my ipod like like on my SDcard |
| 01:04:34 | markun | sounds like a good reason :) |
| 01:05:01 | linuxstb | jhMikeS: I'm not quite sure I understand what you're saying in your email to the dev list... Do you think the proposal is useful? |
| 01:05:10 | lxx | +rockbox support FLAC |
| 01:06:03 | linuxstb | lxx: If you have a basic level of computer skills then you shouldn't have any problems installing Rockbox. As others mentioned earlier, the manual describes the installation process. |
| 01:07:23 | | Quit spiorf (Remote closed the connection) |
| 01:07:49 | lxx | i know but i read somwhere in manual i cant listen mp3`s what i copied via itunes after i intall rockbox its true? |
| 01:08:15 | Soul-Slayer | No |
| 01:08:30 | *** | Saving seen data "./dancer.seen" |
| 01:08:31 | Soul-Slayer | You can use the database to listen to the music you have already copied on |
| 01:08:40 | Soul-Slayer | But not the file browser (Efficiently anyway) |
| 01:08:46 | markun | lxx: do you remember where in the manual you read it? |
| 01:08:50 | krazykit | lxx, what you can't play are the files you bought from the itunes store |
| 01:08:52 | linuxstb | lxx: The only itunes files you can't play are DRM-protected AAC files and Audible files. |
| 01:09:10 | linuxstb | krazykit: Unless they're DRM-free... |
| 01:09:21 | krazykit | oh right, they did start that didn't they |
| 01:10:46 | lxx | other question rockbox support bookmarks in mp3 audiobooks? |
| 01:12:45 | markun | rockbox supports bookmarking if that's what you mean |
| 01:13:18 | lxx | yeah thats what i mean |
| 01:13:55 | markun | does the ipod firmware support it? |
| 01:14:39 | linuxstb | I believe it does, but only in files identified as audiobooks (.m4b files IIRC). |
| 01:15:00 | jhMikeS | linuxstb: I think so to have "experts" in certain areas of code, sure as well as someone to consult about possible bugs or side-effects when accepting FS patches. I was saying there it has seemed to occur anyway without actually declaring someone as an official maintainer. |

| 04:25:27 | themeat | Howdy everybody. I own an iRiver H10 20GB with today's version of rockbox just installed on it. I turned off the idle poweroff limit to rule out this occurrence. Anyway: when left to play sitting normally on the table top under no particular stress, not on hold, without my interference, the player simply freezes and will not respond until I press the reset button and power it back up. It has been doing this ever since around the June |
| 04:25:27 | themeat | 20th release. Is there a way to fix that while using a more updated version? There was another bug in the June 20th release that was less annoying, but I still didn't want to deal with it. |

| 04:36:59 | saratoga | what was the first one that did have a problem |
| 04:37:46 | themeat | Then I tried going backwards, and all of them froze up to the point I gave up which was around a few days after the 20th of June. |

| 04:43:10 | themeat | Is that on the version number preceded by an r? |
| 04:47:41 | themeat | I'm going to assume so...in which case it is r13681 |
| 04:49:02 | saratoga | 13681 is a change to the rockbox manual |
| 04:49:31 | saratoga | oh |
| 04:49:55 | saratoga | you mean 13682 doesn't work? |
| 04:50:02 | themeat | Right. |
| 04:50:40 | themeat | Has no one else had this problem? |
| 04:50:59 | saratoga | not that i know of |
| 04:51:13 | saratoga | its odd that you would have it, that change should impact all color targets |
| 04:51:38 | saratoga | theres nothing H10 specific about it |
| 04:52:05 | saratoga | one thing you could try is just updating your bootloader, since sometimes very old ones break on newer builds |
| 04:52:09 | saratoga | though thats a long shot |
| 04:52:29 | themeat | Hmm...could it be a flaw in the device itself? |
| 04:53:47 | saratoga | does the original firmware still work normally |

| 04:57:18 | webguest35 | I have a Toshiba Gigabeat F40 |
| 04:57:26 | webguest35 | ..and I want to try Rockbox |
| 04:58:47 | webguest35 | but before that I wanna know if I can make different partitions in its hard disk to install linux and still ROCKBOX functions properly |
| 04:58:55 | webguest35 | anyone have an idea? |
| 04:59:15 | webguest35 | Heloooo? |
| 04:59:33 | krazykit | webguest35, chill |
| 04:59:34 | Llorean | webguest35: 1) Please read the channel guidelines |
| 04:59:36 | themeat | So the original firmware seems to work perfectly fine... |
| 04:59:43 | krazykit | it takes a few moments for people to answer |
| 04:59:43 | Llorean | They ask that you have patience. |
| 04:59:53 | Llorean | 2) What do you mean "Install Linux" on your Gigabeat? |
| 04:59:56 | themeat | Also, it is in colour. |
| 05:00 |
| 05:00:03 | webguest35 | thanks! it seemed that no one was participating |

| 05:00:46 | webguest35 | well, if can install a linux distribution in a partition on the hard disk, I guess its possible to use it as my portable OS to use in different macines |
| 05:01:51 | Llorean | It should be possible as long as you don't destroy the FAT32 partition. |
| 05:02:12 | saratoga | themeat: i suppose you could ask JdGordon about that the next time hes on |
| 05:02:16 | saratoga | at least i have no idea |
| 05:02:50 | webguest35 | Thanks Lorean, but my question is does the FAT32 partion NEED to be the first partition to RockBox to fucntion properly? |
| 05:02:59 | | Quit idnar (Remote closed the connection) |
| 05:03:09 | themeat | Hmmm. Okay. Thanks a lot for trying to help. Any particular times that JdGordon is habitually online? |
| 05:03:29 | Llorean | webguest35: It expects it to be installed to the first primary fat32 partition, if I understand correctly. |
| 05:03:40 | webguest35 | Thanks saratoga, have u any idea on when can I find him or someone else with knowledge about this? |
| 05:03:47 | saratoga | themeat: i think hes in europe, so daytime there woudl be a good bet |
| 05:03:53 | Llorean | saratoga: Australia |
| 05:03:59 | webguest35 | Ouch! |
| 05:04:04 | themeat | Damn. No time is good for that. |
| 05:04:10 | webguest35 | anothe question if anyone know |
| 05:04:20 | themeat | Whoops, sorry. Forgot about the language thing. Alright. Thanks saratoga. |
| 05:04:20 | saratoga | webguest35: thanks for what? |

| 05:05:39 | webguest35 | I have tried many times (well like 3 times in 3 different days) to register to the forum, but the "register" button at the bottom of the page is inactive no matter what! |
| 05:05:58 | webguest35 | and I checked in 2 browsers: Firefox + Opera |
| 05:06:46 | webguest35 | Does anyone know if there is something special needs to be done to register at the forums? |
| 05:06:54 | krazykit | click the button is all, really |
| 05:07:11 | krazykit | do you have a 3rd party firewall? it might be interfering in the name of "security" |
| 05:08:02 | webguest35 | Yes it is obvious that clicking the button should make but it does not works |
| 05:08:04 | Llorean | The most recent forum registrant was 44 minutes ago, so it seems to still be working |
| 05:08:34 | *** | Saving seen data "./dancer.seen" |
| 05:08:54 | webguest35 | really? I guess that i have to deativate temporaly my firewall, but this is the first time it happens something like that to me |
| 05:09:21 | Llorean | webguest35: I believe the most likely cause is you not properly typing the security letters |
| 05:09:56 | webguest35 | Are they case sensitive? |
| 05:10:08 | Llorean | I believe so |
| 05:10:43 | webguest35 | Because is true that they're a little bit hard to identify so I used the Audio with the spoken letters |
| 05:11:03 | webguest35 | but this doesn't say if they're upper or lower case |
| 05:11:50 | webguest35 | I guess I'll have to try again later |
| 05:12:58 | webguest35 | about the partitions on the Gigabeat, are u sure that if I partition the disk with the FAT32 partition 1st, it works? |
| 05:13:10 | Llorean | I haven't tried it personally. |
| 05:13:13 | Llorean | I told you what I know. |
| 05:14:12 | webguest35 | another questions though! |
| 05:15:09 | webguest35 | I use my gigabeat quite frequently as an additional Harddisk, so I have to connect frequently and for (perhaps) a long time to the USB port... |
| 05:15:37 | webguest35 | ... and each time I do this the battery recharges |
| 05:16:19 | krazykit | yes, this is a feature. |
| 05:16:39 | krazykit | it's also in the original firmware |
| 05:16:45 | webguest35 | the question is, can cause this any harm to the battery or make its life shorter in anyway (I mean having no complete discharges - complete recharges)? |
| 05:17:04 | saratoga | its a normal litium poly battery so normal rules apply |
| 05:17:25 | saratoga | deep discharges are bad, slowly wears down as it ages, etc |
| 05:17:55 | webguest35 | Well, I guess I don't the normal rules, but if u can point in the right direction I could research by myself (in Wikipedia does'nt say anything about it) |
| 05:18:14 | webguest35 | What are deep discharges? |
| 05:18:39 | Llorean | Actually wikipedia used to have an extensive article on LiIon/LiPoly batteries I thought |
| 05:19:25 | webguest35 | Yes, but all theoretical not practical stuff like what I need 2 know |
| 05:20:35 | Llorean | Um, if you aren't willing to trust "what it's supposed to do", then isn't the only solution to test it yourself? |
| 05:21:54 | webguest35 | I didn't understood |
| 05:22:06 | webguest35 | to test what? |
| 05:22:56 | Llorean | Whatever is in the article that you don't believe. |
| 05:25:10 | webguest35 | You mean the part about the deep discharge caused by "when they are recharged so often that they can no longer hold a charge." (citing the article)? |
| 05:26:29 | saratoga | what exactly are you asking |
| 05:27:10 | webguest35 | But it also said this "Unlike Ni-Cd batteries, lithium-ion batteries should be charged early and often." |
| 05:27:57 | webguest35 | My question can I still use connect as often as I want my Gigabeat to the PC without worries? |
| 05:28:15 | saratoga | i don't see how it matters |
| 05:28:25 | webguest35 | or is better to pass any files in use to the local hard disk and then disconnect the player? |
| 05:29:35 | krazykit | you're worried about HD failure? all you can do is have stuff backed up and not worry about it |
| 05:30:06 | scorche | no he isnt... |
| 05:30:16 | webguest35 | The escenery is that I conncet the player to the PC for say 3 hours, work on some files located at it hardisk (o play the audio files located within it), and when I leave I disconect the player to take it with me and later I do this 2 or 3 times more |

| 05:31:32 | webguest35 | thanks scorche I think u get my idea, the question is, doing this almost daily I'm I wearing down inadvertedly the battery? |
| 05:32:17 | webguest35 | thanks scorche, so no problem with what I do in my daily scenery? |
| 05:32:50 | webguest35 | no risk of 'over charcging' it? |
| 05:33:10 | scorche | if you over charge a lithium ion, they tend to explode... |
| 05:33:32 | scorche | that wont happen unless something is wrong with the battery or charging hardware |
| 05:33:51 | saratoga | this was all in the wikipedia entry |
| 05:34:03 | scorche | indeed |
| 05:35:17 | webguest35 | yes it was, but as I stated earlier it has to sentences that contradicted themselves, that's the reason of my confussion and my asking? |
| 05:35:32 | scorche | i dont see any sentences contradicting.. |
| 05:36:22 | webguest35 | 1: "when they are recharged so often that they can no longer hold a charge." |
| 05:36:49 | webguest35 | 2: "Unlike Ni-Cd batteries, lithium-ion batteries should be charged early and often." |
| 05:37:09 | scorche | i dont see #1... |
| 05:37:17 | krazykit | that isn't contradictive anyway |
| 05:37:23 | webguest35 | yep, is there trust me |
| 05:37:28 | krazykit | "so often" is lots and lots and lots and LOTS of cycles |
| 05:37:30 | scorche | where? |
| 05:37:35 | krazykit | probably longer than the life of your player, webguest35 |
| 05:37:43 | scorche | give a direct quote instead of paraphrasing please |
| 05:38:01 | webguest35 | the quotes are direct quotes |
| 05:39:25 | webguest35 | it also said "It is significantly beneficial to avoid storing a lithium-ion battery at full charge." |

| 05:40:14 | webguest35 | So watching all this mixed messages, what I wanted to know what were tour 1st hand experiences, I mean, how do you handle this? |
| 05:40:45 | scorche | i dont really care about it, to be honest...i just avoid discharging completely |
| 05:40:46 | krazykit | webguest35, i'd stick my player into the fridge if you're that worried about it. |
| 05:41:02 | krazykit | webguest35, but don't do that. condensation would be bad for the player. |
| 05:41:14 | webguest35 | WOW! |
| 05:41:14 | scorche | .. |
| 05:42:28 | webguest35 | to the FRIDGE??? |
| 05:42:37 | scorche | you dont need the caps.. |
| 05:42:52 | scorche | batteries last longer in colder temperatures |
| 05:43:45 | scorche | one would think that if you are this worried about your battery life, you would have gotten a device that had easily replaceable batteries... |
| 05:44:49 | saratoga | this is a pretty ridiculous thing to worry about since you're going to need a new battery in a year or so anyway |
| 05:45:03 | saratoga | maybe sooner given how old most of the gigabeats are out there |
| 05:45:06 | webguest35 | yes, in tha past I used 'normal' Flash-based MP3 players with AAA batteries, but I wanted to try RBox :) and a harddisk based player |
| 05:45:55 | scorche | there are hard drive players that have easily replaced batteries |

| 05:58:18 | webguest35 | to anyone who want to know and perhaps comment, this a good source of information that I just found: http://www.batteryuniversity.com/parttwo-34.htm |
| 05:59:13 | krazykit | which is linked from wikipedia |
| 05:59:28 | krazykit | the first reference on the page, in fact. |
| 06:00 |
| 06:00:06 | krazykit | it pretty much repeats *what was already on wikipedia* |
| 06:01:41 | XavierGr | webguest35: yes it is possible to install an OS on the ipod along with rockbox |
| 06:01:57 | XavierGr | e.g my H140 has knoppix in it and rockbox along side |
| 06:03:03 | webguest35 | andrewg867: Hi Xavier, thanks for the reference! |
| 06:04:04 | XavierGr | I think though that my OS partition is FAT16 |
| 06:04:05 | | Quit scorche (" rebooting...") |
| 06:04:09 | webguest35 | How is your parition table? |
| 06:04:22 | XavierGr | let me check |
| 06:05:54 | XavierGr | I have a primary active partition that is FAT16 and a non-active primary partion FAT32 |
| 06:06:11 | XavierGr | no extended partitions |
| 06:06:29 | XavierGr | the hard part was to make the OS partition bootable |
| 06:06:42 | XavierGr | but rockbox didn't have a hard time to boot |
| 06:07:44 | webguest35 | and Knoppix works fine with the FAT16? |
| 06:08:15 | XavierGr | yes |
| 06:08:22 | webguest35 | and the FAT32 partition for RBox is before or after the FAT16 partition? |
| 06:08:34 | XavierGr | in fact the OS on USB utilities required that the partition is FAT16 |
| 06:08:49 | XavierGr | after the fat16 |
| 06:09:23 | webguest35 | and (soory for the quantity of quesionts) how did you managed to make it bootable? |
| 06:09:44 | | Quit saratoga ("CGI:IRC (Ping timeout)") |
| 06:09:54 | XavierGr | you have to run some tools on it |
| 06:10:12 | XavierGr | better search google for bootable usb sticks, or linux on USB etc |
| 06:10:17 | webguest35 | so is like a /dev/sda1 with FAT16 and a /dev/sda2 with FAT32? |
| 06:10:32 | XavierGr | yes the difference is that sda1 is active too |
| 06:10:40 | XavierGr | while sda2 is non-active |
| 06:10:52 | XavierGr | rockbox will just search for the first fat32 partition |
| 06:11:08 | XavierGr | though I think that it will not manage too boot on an extended partition table |
| 06:11:13 | webguest35 | OK, I understand, any chance to be able to use it ext3 in the linux partition? |
| 06:11:16 | XavierGr | but I am not sure |
| 06:11:35 | webguest35 | and (almost forgot) what abour a Swap partition? |
| 06:11:44 | XavierGr | yeah maybe, it is just that all the tools I've encountered for bootable usb deviced needed a FAT16 partition |
| 06:11:54 | webguest35 | Wow, so Rbox is samrt enough, I like it!!! |
| 06:11:59 | XavierGr | there is no swap partition on my installation |
| 06:12:19 | | Quit lymeca (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)) |
| 06:13:08 | webguest35 | no, but u can use 4 partitions all physical with no extended one! |
| 06:13:19 | XavierGr | I guess |
| 06:13:20 | webguest35 | at most 4 |
| 06:13:29 | XavierGr | as I said I haven't tried with more partitions |
| 06:13:52 | webguest35 | so I guess is possible 2 create another partition for Swap, what do u think? |
| 06:14:07 | XavierGr | yeah I think there won't be a problem |
| 06:14:11 | XavierGr | you will just have to try |
| 06:14:39 | XavierGr | I did that 2 years ago, so I don't really remember the process |
| 06:14:49 | XavierGr | but I remember that I failed a couple of times |
| 06:15:00 | XavierGr | I couldn't get linux to boot most of the time |
| 06:15:29 | XavierGr | well I hope that you have a pc that can boot from USB devices else you can't test it |
| 06:15:54 | webguest35 | Yes, mine is fairly new so I'm almost sure it can |

| 07:09:47 | kkurbjun | JdGordon, I have a question on menus |
| 07:09:57 | JdGordon | shoiot |
| 07:09:59 | jhMikeS | JdGordon: hey. mind testing an ata-e200 update? it stops the card init on every card switch and addresses good yielding and improves timeout behavior. it's been working nicely here for some hours. |
| 07:10:19 | JdGordon | jhMikeS: yeah sure, but my tree is borked atm, so can you send me the .mi4? |
| 07:10:26 | kkurbjun | is there an equivalent for struct opt_items for plugins with the new menu api |
| 07:10:27 | jhMikeS | np |
| 07:10:57 | kkurbjun | it looks like MENUITEM_SETTING is, but it indicatess that the settings have to be in the core |
| 07:11:15 | | Join chrisjs169 [0] (n=ubuntu@unaffiliated/chrisjs169) |
| 07:12:56 | kkurbjun | also when calling MAKE_MENU, if you include other MAKE_MENU variables does it call do_menu when they are selected, or are the other menu's just added to the displayed list? |
| 07:14:04 | JdGordon | kkurbjun: no, there isnt an equiv for plugins, that needs to be done... and do_menu() is "automatically called" for submenus |
| 07:14:24 | kkurbjun | hmm |
| 07:14:26 | JdGordon | i put it like that because it actually just stays in the do_menu() call and uses a stack to remember where it was |
| 07:14:54 | kkurbjun | ok, the submenu thing was what I was hoping for |
| 07:15:25 | kkurbjun | I can probably work around the missing opt_item equivalent, I just wanted to try and make it as clean as possible |
| 07:18:58 | jhMikeS | JdGordon: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/viewfile/Main/MichaelSevakis?rev=2;filename=rockbox.mi4 |
| 07:21:50 | JdGordon | jhMikeS: will this stop the painicing i get almost every time i swap cards? |
| 07:22:46 | jhMikeS | maybe |
| 07:22:54 | jhMikeS | I thought that stopped |
| 07:23:03 | JdGordon | any particular ay you want it tested? |
| 07:23:13 | JdGordon | na, it seems to have got more frequent recently for some reason |
| 07:23:17 | jhMikeS | because your card acts different |
| 07:23:23 | * | JdGordon suspects my really dodgey cheap cards |
| 07:24:12 | jhMikeS | if it doesn't bother OF I really can't see that it should bother rb :\ |
| 07:25:04 | JdGordon | yeah, if only :p |
| 07:25:25 | jhMikeS | I was getting panics under certain conditions but that was due to the yielding which it now compensates for |
| 07:26:11 | JdGordon | ok, ill let you know fi i get any panics |
| 07:26:39 | JdGordon | oh, you said the way I did backlight fading was bad... without a dedicated backlight thread any other ideas how to do it? |
| 07:26:51 | jhMikeS | don't we have one? |
| 07:27:08 | jhMikeS | :) |
| 07:27:34 | JdGordon | modifieing that would then create a 3rd way of doing fading in rockbox! |
| 07:27:38 | jhMikeS | mmmm....yes...actually now that you mention it |
| 07:27:59 | * | JdGordon doesnt like how the backlight is currnelty handled |
| 07:28:19 | jhMikeS | the backlight thread can be tripped into doing waits with timeouts when it has a lengthy task to perform |

| 07:33:49 | jhMikeS | we already have that |
| 07:33:59 | jhMikeS | last I remember |
| 07:34:43 | * | JdGordon is then confused |
| 07:37:00 | jhMikeS | there's a thread to do scrollers on remote and another for the main lcd but even though the speeds can be different for each display, it should be possible to have one thread do it. |

| 07:44:10 | JdGordon | no, but its playing from ram... I guess it got through reading the cd fine |
| 07:44:46 | jhMikeS | what about swapping the card a bunch of times? |
| 07:44:52 | JdGordon | bah, got a crash |
| 07:45:11 | jhMikeS | what sort? |
| 07:45:14 | JdGordon | ... trying to go from wps->browser after i swapeed cards so the path didnt exsist anymore |
| 07:45:46 | * | JdGordon resets and procedes to break the chip locking mechnism |
| 07:46:34 | JdGordon | seems more reliable now |
| 07:46:35 | jhMikeS | I can do that one without a crash. |
| 07:46:55 | jhMikeS | It just goes back up to the root |
| 07:50:48 | JdGordon | hmm... possible crash/panic |
| 07:50:52 | JdGordon | screen is off though |
| 07:51:04 | JdGordon | definalty did one of them |
| 07:51:19 | JdGordon | spamming hotswap in the disk debug screen |
| 07:53:41 | jhMikeS | hmmmm...I can cause #5 by doing slow inserts and stuff. frankly I'm not sure about the whole panic thing. I really think errors returns are the way to go. |
| 07:57:08 | JdGordon | anything to stop the panics... they are such a PITA |
| 07:57:16 | jhMikeS | no big deal really. it can mux the cards without crashing and not reinitializing them. I think I know what's up with that. |
| 07:57:26 | JdGordon | unless we can get system_reboot() working so we dont have to hold down power for 25min |
| 07:58:23 | jhMikeS | I think now it still sees the card as initialized even though it has been removed because the ata thread hasn't seen gotten the message yet. |

| 11:56:17 | pondlife | :) |
| 11:56:28 | pondlife | I don't think I would ! |
| 11:56:42 | Nico_P | but I've been thinking a bit about it and I think RbinRB still may be the way to go. There'll just be a few tweaks needed for the metadata |
| 11:58:31 | pondlife | It's not the easiest thing to to think about - will probably be easier to get a working version then iron out the allocation/defrag algorithms. |
| 11:58:56 | Nico_P | well the current SVN code works pretty well |
| 11:59:06 | Nico_P | you could even add metadata to it quite easily |
| 11:59:09 | pondlife | Getting the outside world to not rely on memory that stays still will be fun. |

| 12:01:33 | GodEater_ | presumably you wouldn't want the outside world to know though ? |
| 12:01:47 | GodEater_ | shouldn't the buffering api hide that fact ? |
| 12:02:08 | pondlife | Yes, as long as nobody holds onto data pointers and assumes they will always be valid. |
| 12:03:22 | GodEater_ | hmm - yes I see what you mean - you can ask the buffering api for a pointer - but nothing forces you to check back with the API later to make sure it's still there |
| 12:04:53 | pondlife | In fact it's only valid until a bufseek or bufadvance occurs on that handle (I think that's the current criteria). |
| 12:05:09 | pondlife | That may well change, of course... |
| 12:05:47 | * | pondlife thinks he might bring a notepad to the pub.... and hope that it all becomes clear after 5 pints. |

| 12:06:45 | pondlife | Don't be concerned - I was joking, honest. |

| 12:16:55 | GodEater_ | I've grabbed the XL already |
| 12:17:29 | pondlife | Well, if I don't get a shirt, no worries - I'll hopefully make it to DevCon2008. |

| 12:17:49 | GodEater_ | mug sized ;) |

| 12:18:11 | pondlife | Big enough for dunking is all that matters. |
| 12:18:22 | GodEater_ | they're quite narrow |

| 12:33:10 | pondlife | Being a maintainer doesn't compell you to work on stuff, does it? |
| 12:33:16 | linuxstb | I can't see how it can work informally - IMO you need to know which bits are currently in need of a maintainer. So the list is for people to say "I'm willing to actively maintain this bit of Rockbox". |
| 12:33:33 | linuxstb | pondlife: That's the point... |
| 12:33:41 | JdGordon | it doesnt? |
| 12:33:56 | JdGordon | then why would you be the maintainer of the section? |
| 12:34:09 | pondlife | I wouldn't, then. |
| 12:34:23 | scorche | i think he meant that the point was for them to be compelled to work on stuff... |
| 12:34:24 | pondlife | Can't offer enough time to stay on top of it. |
| 12:34:27 | JdGordon | you... anyone i mean |
| 12:34:28 | linuxstb | But obviously the reverse isn't true - you don't have to name yourself as maintainer in order to work on something. |
| 12:34:41 | pondlife | Obviously! |

| 12:35:41 | | Join safetydan [0] (n=dan@rockbox/developer/safetydan) |

| 12:36:59 | pondlife | Yes, and it could be unfair and even put people off if not handled carefully. |
| 12:37:04 | safetydan | What would it mean to maintain something like a codec? Just keep it in sync with upstream? |
| 12:37:34 | linuxstb | safetydan: Yes, just keep it working and investigate any reported bugs. |

| 12:46:14 | pondlife | No, but I was concerned that others might think it was that. |
| 12:46:40 | Nico_P | the advantage is that it will clearly highlight which part of rockbox lack maintaining |

| 13:17:16 | JdGordon | number? |
| 13:17:29 | safetydan | oh, no wait. I'm thinking of the progress bar while deleting patch |

| 13:19:51 | Nico_P | (FS #7441) |
| 13:20:23 | JdGordon | adding the filename to the splash is much simpler code than adding a infinite scroll bar thing |
| 13:21:09 | * | amiconn thinks that it's unnecessary to add anything to the splashes |
| 13:21:35 | JdGordon | it is, but there really is no way to know if its crashed, or guess how much is left to copy |
| 13:21:49 | amiconn | If you want to be sure that it didn't crash, rather work on stability so it doesn't crash |
| 13:21:50 | JdGordon | the filename would fix that |
| 13:22:37 | amiconn | The filename wouldn't tell you how much is left to copy |
| 13:22:52 | JdGordon | http://www.pastebin.ca/630654 is my massivly bloated patch.... |

| 16:18:51 | Siltaar | so.. I wonder how to make the installation process automatic |
| 16:20:46 | linuxstb | You should probably distribute them separately as a zip file, with the zip file containing the .rockbox/rockbox/sudoku/ directory structure. |
| 16:20:59 | amiconn | Talking sudoku would be a great chance to take voice to the next level and implement a long-standing idea related to langv2 |
| 16:22:20 | amiconn | A segmented voice file with one segment per "client" (first client being the core, talking plugins as subsequent clients) |
| 16:23:22 | amiconn | A talking plugin would swap in the necessary at startup, i.e. when the disk is still spinning. No further spinups while the plugin is running (on hdd targets) |

| 16:33:46 | GodEater | clearly it's not very good at list traffic |
| 16:33:57 | linuxstb | GodEater: Maybe gmail is just being really good at threading - somehow it knew it wasn't a genuine follow-up... |
| 16:34:22 | GodEater | linuxstb: you could argue that ;) |
| 16:34:32 | GodEater | I believe it does all it's threading based on Subject though |
| 16:34:34 | GodEater | which is not ideal |
| 16:36:26 | linuxstb | Siltaar: The general approach in Rockbox is to do things at compile-time where possible, and not runtime. Hence the preference for simple bitmapped fonts and graphics. |

| 17:32:54 | linuxstb | [[bam]]: Sourceforge accepts projects with many different open source licenses, not just GPL. |
| 17:33:02 | PaulJam | linuxstb: but wouldn't converting to .fnt be against their license? (No Modifications.) |
| 17:33:47 | linuxstb | PaulJam: It would depend on the exact text of the license - i.e. if they allow conversion to a different format. |
| 17:34:14 | linuxstb | But IIUC, if the license doesn't grant you a particular right, then you don't have it... |

| 17:40:51 | linuxstb | Nico_P: My understanding is that fonts are simply data used by Rockbox, rather than software libraries linked to Rockbox - so fonts can be under any license. |

It /seems/ to work here with my M5 - at least it shows "charger connected" in the statusbar and I can continue to use Rockbox but I'm not sure whether it works the same on X5 with charging through the subpack but it should (works similar on other targets as well) |
| 17:43:30 | thomasg | well, if rockbox is running and I plug the cradle in it works (means rockbox stays running). but not if the player is turned off |
| 17:46:10 | [[bam]] | nice. we CAN redist them. |
| 17:47:56 | GodEater | if I understand correctly, the read_line() function takes lines straight off the disk - is this correct ? |
| 17:48:20 | [[bam]] | btw, Nico_P, linuxstb, PaulJam, (and any others who don't know), me & markun were discussing about UNICODE free fonts. |
| 17:48:39 | linuxstb | GodEater: Yes - you can read the function for yourself in apps/misc.c |
| 17:49:02 | GodEater | this seems inefficient to me - wouldn't it be better to read the whole file at once to avoid disk spinups ? |
| 17:49:29 | linuxstb | The disk shouldn't spin-down - there's a timeout of a few seconds. |
| 17:49:50 | linuxstb | But if you know your file is small, then yes, you could read it all at once into a memory buffer, then parse it. |
| 17:49:58 | GodEater | but for a small file wouldn't it be better to just read the whole thing in one go, close the fd, and then do the splitting in memory |
| 17:50:02 | GodEater | hehe |
| 17:50:03 | GodEater | jinx |
| 17:50:05 | linuxstb | Yes. ;) |
| 17:50:18 | GodEater | right - I shall ignore read_line then |
| 17:50:20 | GodEater | :) |
| 17:50:23 | linuxstb | Also, you have more memory to spare in a plugin - you wouldn't want to do that in the core code. |
| 17:50:34 | GodEater | possibly so =/ |
| 17:50:45 | linuxstb | But remember Archos devices only have 32KB for plugins. |
| 17:50:53 | * | GodEater 's file that he is reading is a maximum of MAX_PATH * 10 in size |
| 17:51:05 | GodEater | that'll still fit easily in 32kb |
| 17:51:13 | linuxstb | Then just declare a static buffer in your .c file with that size. |
| 17:51:13 | pixelma | thomasg: don't know if that's possible then... |
| 17:51:21 | GodEater | linuxstb: I did |
| 17:51:36 | linuxstb | GodEater: Then why are you asking me ;) |
| 17:51:51 | GodEater | because I want to make sure I'm not missing something obvious |
| 17:52:14 | GodEater | if you say I'm not then I'm a happy person |
| 17:52:18 | linuxstb | OK, you're not. (or we both are...) |
| 17:52:46 | GodEater | good enough for me :) |
| 17:53:11 | GodEater | I've totally ripped off your mpeg_malloc code btw for other stuff in the plugin :) |

| 18:41:33 | linuxstb | markun: It seems that mpegplayer is very tight on stack usage - it crashes when creating the .cfg file. |
| 18:41:57 | linuxstb | So a recent commit to the core increased the main stack usage, and broke mpegplayer... I think it only affects Coldfire targets. |
| 18:42:37 | thomasg | I use the h10of-theme (from here: http://www.rockbox-themes.org/index.php?res=160x128x16 ). It works and in the menu it looks good - but at the WPS I only have the theme background. the output is not centered like on the screenshot and I also have the text-like statusbar, not the graphical one |
| 18:43:27 | thomasg | I also tried to load the h10of.wps manually, but this doesnt work, too |
| 18:43:28 | pixelma | Nico_P: I'm not sure... it's desired that it should be as perfect as possible (because it breaks all the lang files and voice...) so it should be tested well before a commit |
| 18:43:56 | Nico_P | pixelma: yeah I'm not going to rush into committing :) just curious |
| 18:44:51 | PaulJam | thomasg: this Theme/WPS doesn't work with the official build. it requires patches/an unsupported build |
| 18:44:55 | linuxstb | thomasg: It sounds like the wps files is either broken, or uses unofficial WPS features. In either case, Rockbox will reject it and just display the standard. |

| 20:00:17 | n1s | linuxstb: if you look at the patch and what is added to apps/Makefile (parsing of the features.txt file and passing it to genlang as a list of features) the same needs to be done in buildzip.pl when building the .lng files. |

| 20:02:08 | n1s | for example every target that defines HAVE_RECORDING will have the "recording" feature and will thus include all the recording related strings |
| 20:02:49 | n1s | linuxstb: no, it's part of the patch, I added it to FILES when updating it a while ago |
| 20:02:51 | Nico_P | linuxstb: no, it's not |
| 20:03:09 | linuxstb | So it shouldn't be in FILES yet? |
| 20:03:20 | n1s | I thought it would be committed semi-soon by then... and FILES is forgotten pretty often :-) |
| 20:03:41 | linuxstb | Where is the patch? |
| 20:03:48 | n1s | linuxstb: well, I asked Bagder and he thought it was ok but maybe it's confusing |
| 20:03:57 | n1s | linuxstb: http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/6574 |
| 20:04:03 | linuxstb | I don't think it's worth removing, but it was confusing... |

| 20:04:50 | beefsalad | I have an archos jukebox studio 20 running rockbox v2.5, the way I have my mp3s layed out on the filesystem is Artist/Album/Song.mp3, is there a way to make rockbox randomly move between the Artist and Album directories, or am I going to have to drop all of the files down a directory to do that? |
| 20:05:47 | n1s | beefsalad: you can make it advance to a random folder but you need to update to a more recent version |
| 20:06:45 | n1s | Nico_P: did you sort the newly added strings when you did your sync? |
| 20:07:03 | Nico_P | n1s: no |
| 20:08:18 | linuxstb | n1s: It looks straightforward to do. The Makefile generates $(OBJDIR)/features which the the processed version of apps/features.txt. So buildzip just needs to read that file, and the Makefile adapted. I'll have a quick look now - will you be around for the next 20 minutes or so? |
| 20:08:21 | beefsalad | n1s: n1s gracias |
| 20:08:57 | n1s | linuxstb: i hope so, will read the logs tomorrow if I can't |
| 20:10:27 | linuxstb | n1s: What does buildzip.pl need to do based on features.txt? |
| 20:11:02 | linuxstb | Ah, buildzip.pl calls genlang, so that call to genlang needs the features? |
| 20:11:36 | n1s | linuxstb: yes, it needs the same list of features that the Makefile sends to genlang |

| 20:15:40 | n1s | linuxstb: ah, yes that seems like a better solution :-) |

| 21:03:55 | Rayvin | Hello. I've a question and have checked out the FAQ and couldn't find an answer for it. Up until last night rockbox showed all the folders on my iPOD fifth gen video properly. But last night the .rockbox, iPOD control, Found.0000 folders just disappeared. *My PC still shows them as there. I can access them from the PC but Rockbox acts as if they aren't there. |

| 22:08:11 | bluebrother | nice. Found a solution for the rbutil.ini in pwd issue. |
| 22:08:17 | | Quit stripwax (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer)) |
| 22:09:10 | Domonoky | the problem with the paths for rbutil.ini and other things, is that they are different depending on the os.. |
| 22:09:59 | bluebrother | hmm. It should read rbutil.ini from the folder you ran the binary. |
| 22:10:48 | Domonoky | on windows and macosX thats correct.. but on linux, there is a configuration dir.. |
| 22:11:13 | bluebrother | ah, you mean the system wide configuration? Yeah, that's in ~/.config |
| 22:11:16 | Domonoky | so rbutilWx checks different locations for the ini file. |
| 22:12:10 | bluebrother | ok, first patch is out. rbutil.ini should now always be in the binary folder. |
| 22:12:13 | Domonoky | also the path for temporäry things should be different on different plattforms. |
| 22:12:31 | bluebrother | yeah −− I haven't bothered about that yet. |

| 22:18:01 | bluebrother | that's the system configuration (for rbutil) |
| 22:18:06 | amiconn | aha |
| 22:18:23 | bluebrother | but for a portable installation it also looks in that folder (and will prefer that if one is present) |
| 22:18:46 | bluebrother | in Qt you can simply create a QSettings object and Qt will put it in the standard location depending on the OS |
| 22:18:59 | * | amiconn hates programs which don't obey the system rules on windows |
| 22:19:32 | amiconn | A program that can't be run as non-admin without tricks is a bad program imo |
| 22:19:40 | bluebrother | well, I do so too. But IMO the system configuration (which only changes with new program versions) should be ok there. |
| 22:20:00 | bluebrother | don't you need admin rights for ipodpatcher anyway? |
| 22:20:08 | amiconn | (unless there are special requirements for admin rights, like direct hardware access) |
| 22:20:23 | amiconn | Yes, but then you need them only if you want to use the ipodpatcher function |
| 22:21:22 | | Quit low_light ("CGI:IRC (EOF)") |
| 22:22:25 | bluebrother | but we could include that ini file into the binary using the resource file mechanism. Might be a good idea anyway ... |
| 22:23:17 | Domonoky | bluebrother: but then you cant change it easly.. like changing an url.. |
| 22:23:40 | bluebrother | well, you just need to recompile ;-) |
| 22:23:55 | bluebrother | and you could always check for a file in the binary folder first |
| 22:24:09 | bluebrother | but currently it doesn't work if you miss the ini file. |
| 22:25:58 | Domonoky | i would leave this for the time, and change it when rbutilQt is nearly ready.. :-) |
| 22:26:52 | Domonoky | bluebrother: with the zlib you used, would it be possible to track all unzipped files ? |
| 22:26:54 | linuxstb | Isn't the idea that rbutil downloads rbutil.ini from the server - so users don't need to update rbutil so frequently? |
| 22:27:13 | bluebrother | that's an option too. |
| 22:27:21 | Domonoky | thats even better.. |
| 22:27:24 | bluebrother | Domonoky: you can easily create a list of the files in the zip |
| 22:27:33 | linuxstb | But maybe now we have lots of download mirrors, it's not such an issue. |
| 22:27:42 | bluebrother | so putting that in the log file should be sufficient, right? |
| 22:27:49 | Domonoky | bluebrother: yes.. |
| 22:28:03 | amiconn | Downloading the .ini requires it to put it into the user profile |
| 22:28:13 | Domonoky | bluebrother: thats for uninstalling, so you can only remove installed file, and no user created files.. |

| 22:41:43 | tucoz | maybe the tool could be i18n'ized |
| 22:42:14 | tucoz | using some scheme, such as the one kde uses |
| 22:42:32 | Domonoky | bluebrother: one thing you have to look at, is error handling.. in wx we could just make a MessageWindow with an error text, and if you get back to the main loop you get all error messages in one.. |

| 23:19:27 | DerPapst | the settings menu could be replaced by a filder structire with single setting gonfig files. plugins can already be launched from the filebrowser... |

| 23:30:56 | linuxstb | It's not that difficult, and you can do a lot more than just customise the menus if you start to compile Rockbox yourself and tweak the source code. |
