00:01:26Bagderthat's a vanilla
00:01:36advcomp2019i have to leave now
00:01:41salty-horsei have PlayForSure according to the box
00:02:14linuxstbBagder: What does the R look like? No second partition?
00:02:16advcomp2019plain ones has MSC and MTP modes
00:02:36Bagderlinuxstb: right, although I've not seen any actual dump iirc
00:03:13daniel1234I am just updating fs6159. What does each hunk begin with in the patch file?
00:03:14salty-horsewhat does that mean rockbox wise? could it be using a regular firmware, and I have patched it incorrectly?
00:03:21 Quit jgarvey ("Leaving")
00:03:52Bagdersalty-horse: I think most of what you show looks like a regular, although I can't explain why your patching failed
00:04:12salty-horseI'll try again maybe
00:05:35salty-horsei didn't run it with sudo - gave no errors.
00:06:13Bagderyou probably need to use sudo
00:06:32salty-horseYAY
00:06:35salty-horseYAYYAY
00:06:36salty-horseWOOHOO
00:06:41salty-horseowned!
00:06:41Bagderhaha
00:06:50Battousaiguess you don't have to return it after all
00:07:07salty-horsewhat do i do with the rhapsody coupon? :)
00:07:13Battousaimail it back to sandisk

00:08:28SliMMhere is where i've started a thread on rockbox & java: http://forums.java.net/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=29303&tstart=0
00:09:03salty-horseshould I file a bug on sansapatcher saying everything is ok when running without sudo?
00:09:18 Quit DerPapst ("In soviet russia the CD burns YOU!")
00:10:10SliMMand also, rockbox will get featured on the next podcast, that will be avaiable on monday, here: http://today.java.net/pub/ct/mobileandembedded
00:10:36Bagdernice!
00:10:50salty-horseare these skins for the regular rockbox menu? or just for the wps?
00:11:15***Alert Mode OFF
00:11:16SliMMjust for wps, for menus you have backdrops and icons
00:11:18Soul-SlayerWhy doesn't ipodpatcher and sansapatcher just demand superuser privileges instead of continue running?
00:12:23BagderI guess that is a quick way to prevent this sort of mistakes
00:12:26SliMMsalty-horse: and fonts, but the WPSs are based on font's height, so a wrong font could mess up the wps
00:12:35Bagderalthough I guess systems can be setup to allow this without being root
00:13:01Soul-SlayerI think relying on that is a bit of a long shot
00:13:17Bagderyes, it's probably not worth it
00:14:10salty-horsea "make zip" i did from svn built no fonts for some reason. installing them now to test hebrew
00:14:26Soul-Slayermake fullzup
00:14:33SliMMmake fullzip
00:14:36SliMMor make fonts
00:14:41SliMMi think
00:14:43salty-horsehow full is it?
00:14:44Soul-SlayerI meant that... :(
00:14:48Soul-SlayerBuild + fonts
00:14:54Bagder"make help" ...
00:14:56Bagder;-)
00:15:16SliMMby 'fullzip' it means that it adds all the features
00:15:29salty-horsei don't want to install stuff i don't need :)
00:15:45SliMMand "make help" explains you all the make commands
00:15:59SliMMdefined by rockbox devs
00:16:00Soul-SlayerAnd make pizza is not yet implemented, to my dismay.
00:16:25bluebrotherwell, I'd rather like "make coffee" :)
00:16:31SliMMbagder: does the jpeg viewer use a malloc function?
00:16:42BagderI don't know
00:16:57SliMMbluebrother: i guess that's not related to java somehow
00:17:00bluebrotherit uses the audio buffer if the file is too big
00:17:09bluebrotherafaik
00:17:15Bagderit does
00:17:26Bagderbut I don't know if it is implemented with a malloc()-like thing
00:17:32SliMMyeah, but does it allocate the memory dynamically?
00:17:36Bagderyes
00:17:46SliMMok :)
00:18:43SliMMi've found a java porting guide
00:19:08SliMMbut i need to study it hardly :))

00:28:41bluebrothercreate a playlist from the first folder. Then insert the next folder to that playlist.

03:19:27Soul-SlayerCorrect.
03:19:40Soul-SlayerMost people make a directory called 'Music'
03:19:44inmotionand a follow up: is there anyway to keep it auto-updated with a music folder on hard drive?
03:20:12Soul-SlayerUse a sync program like Mediamonkey or Winamp or similar

03:36:00hailtothethiefbecause thats the size engraved on the back of the ipod

03:39:11linuxstbI should add 2nd Gen Nano detection to ipodpatcher...
03:39:27Soul-SlayerWith a large error message :p

03:39:50Soul-SlayerIf you do though careful what you write for the SVN commit comment

03:40:02inmotionbtw soul-slayer, thanks for pointing me to mediamonkey, looks great
03:40:04Soul-SlayerIf you put 'Added detection for 2nd gen nano in ipodpatcher' you're in trouble.
03:40:14Soul-SlayerNo problems :)
03:40:20linuxstb"Added avoidance of 2nd gen Nano"
03:40:28Soul-SlayerShould do it :p

04:12:27Soul-SlayerShouldn't do... Should still be able to navigate
04:12:38Soul-SlayerBut the little hdd icon will be on for a while
04:12:47inmotionit was counting up, i thought i could still navigate so i hit menu and then play/pause
04:12:47Soul-SlayerI take it from what you've said, your ipod has frozen?
04:13:01inmotioni walked a way for a bit, came back and now it's at the main menu
04:13:12inmotionbut doesn't respond to scroll wheel, except backlight comes on
04:13:15Soul-SlayerHold down the play button to turn it off
04:13:24Soul-SlayerIf it doesn't turn off, tell me
04:13:31inmotionit shut off
04:13:36Soul-SlayerTap select
04:13:46Soul-SlayerShould come up 'Commiting Database 1/8'
04:13:52Soul-SlayerIf it worked
04:13:58inmotionyup
04:14:06Soul-SlayerTry now then ^^
04:14:30inmotionstill waiting 3/8, i wasn't sure if it was still scanning before or not though
04:14:48inmotionguess thats that bug people were talking about on forums maybe? where the 5.5 would freeze up

04:31:06Soul-SlayerFairly sure it's .h but =$
04:32:19linuxstbYes, .h
04:32:24Soul-SlayerCheers.
04:32:38linuxstbYou have about 50 other plugins to look at for inspiration... helloworld.c is a good start.
04:33:07Soul-SlayerThat would be sensible... Thanks :p
04:35:37Soul-SlayerSo it always starts with the " enum plugin_status plugin_start(struct plugin_api* api, void* parameter) " function?
04:36:47Soul-SlayerI'm guessing I used the term 'function' incorrectly, it wouldn't be the first time :p
04:37:44Soul-SlayerEe wow ok this will be fun.
04:39:29Soul-Slayerlinuxstb: Can I suggest you modify this line actually: fprintf(stderr,"[ERR]  Read of directory failed.\n"); It'll only cause people to flood in here saying 'It keeps failing, is my ipod broken???' or similar... Maybe just '[ERR] Ipod Nano 2nd Gen unsupported.\n'

04:46:51krazykitjust ask it
04:47:18Soul-SlayerOpen.
04:47:59SirKnightOk, I am reading the walkthrough on rockbox.org, and its says to type in the cmd window "../tools/configure". this returns the error "hash: command not found"
04:48:14SirKnightwhat am i doing wrong?
04:48:19Soul-SlayerWhat folder are you in?
04:49:04SirKnightC/rockbox/home/guest/rockbox-20070841/build
04:49:25Soul-SlayerRight, and in rockbox-20070842 you have a folder called tools?
04:49:26SirKnightthats 20070801, sorry.
04:49:43SirKnightNo, i was not aware that needed to exist
04:49:56SirKnightwas that supposed to be created by the istallaion? Cause it wanted.
04:50:05SirKnightinstallation*
04:50:07Soul-SlayerNo, it's part of the source files.
04:50:19Soul-SlayerGo into the source files folder
04:50:29Soul-SlayerMake your directory called 'build'
04:50:39Soul-Slayercd into it, then type ../tools/configure
04:51:16SirKnightAh, inside the 20070801 folder, there was another 20070801, and the source files were in in THAT one. I didnt go far enough deep.
04:51:26Soul-SlayerThere's your problem then :p
04:51:39SirKnightSorry, dumb question! I may be back later......
04:51:43SirKnightthank you very much

04:53:22inmotionif i wanted to remove the files itunes put on my ipod, would i have to do it via itunes? or can that be accomplished thorugh rockbox
04:54:18Soul-SlayerI believe it's in a folder there, I can't remember the name though
04:54:21Soul-SlayerIpod_something
04:54:43inmotionthat won't mess it up?
04:55:06inmotionwhat happens to the database rockbox created from those files, will it just go away?
04:55:12Soul-SlayerProbably best to remove through itunes if possible.
04:55:26Soul-SlayerNo, it'll stay until you press 'Update now' in the database settings
04:55:33Soul-SlayerUnless you have auto update on
04:56:09Soul-SlayerBut it will error if you try and play them
04:56:18inmotionok got it
04:56:21inmotionthanks again
04:56:28Soul-SlayerThat's it, it's in the iPod_Control/Music folder
04:56:43Soul-SlayerAll your music will be scattered around in random directories
04:56:50Soul-SlayerAnd I don't have a clue why they did that but they did
04:57:30inmotioni believe apple was trying to make it as hard as possible for you to take your ipod over to your buddies then dump all your music onto his computer
04:57:46Soul-SlayerGood point.
04:57:47inmotionkind of a crude anti-sharing method
04:58:01Soul-SlayerBut still not impossible, as it keeps all the metatags
04:58:43Soul-SlayerA program that can scan the files, read the tags, then save them into folders by their artist and title can't be too tricky... BUt you're right, it certainly wouldn't be as simple as just copy/paste.
04:59:04krazykitSoul-Slayer, it's not. there are tons of programs that do that.
04:59:18krazykitthe godfather, tag&rename, foobar2k, media monkey, etc all come to mind

05:05:55SirKnightwhat do i put?

05:06:11krazykittry patch -p0

05:07:21Soul-SlayerBefore you can assume that though, what folder are you in?
05:07:33Soul-SlayerJust the last few folders
05:07:39Soul-SlayerShould be the root of your source folder

05:13:43SirKnightwhat does that do?
05:13:45Soul-SlayerShould be -p1 then
05:13:57SirKnighti s ee
05:13:59SirKnighti see
05:15:06SirKnightthe filename it seemed to stick at was rockbox-modified/manual/preamble.tex
05:15:27SirKnightAFAIK, the manuals arent neccessary?
05:15:29Soul-SlayerSo you are in the folder where you have the apps, firmware, bootloader, manual etc folders are?
05:15:33SirKnightyes.
05:15:44Soul-SlayerAnd your .diff/.patch file is in that folder?

05:17:13Soul-Slayerput -p1 before −−binary

05:19:52inmotionif i just installed rockbox on ipod 5.5, is it still possible to boot normally to ipod software?
05:19:55*krazykit doesn't like the idea of using some massive patchset from some schmoe on a non-rockbox forum
05:20:02krazykitinmotion, this is covered in the manual.
05:20:03Soul-SlayerFlip hold on while it turns on
05:20:42inmotioni have the manual open but didn't see what i was looking for right away

05:22:12SirKnight"apply anyway?" im assuming i put n there too
05:22:19Soul-SlayerIndeed

05:23:49Soul-SlayerOr one part is :p
05:24:47SirKnightwell, there are several strings of files that arent already installed, and are installing now without the "already detected" message, so your idea to reverse binary and p1 worked
05:25:06Soul-SlayerHopefully.
05:25:21Soul-SlayerI really recommend you apply patches individually if possible though :P
05:25:37SirKnightduly noted, now i understand why
05:25:39krazykitand only the patches you actually need
05:25:50krazykiti'd bet you have no need for many of them
05:26:47SirKnightthere were about 15....10 of them i really wanted and i (wrongly)assumed it would be simpler this way...

05:32:40Soul-SlayerI *think*... You go into apps/bitmaps/native
05:32:56Soul-SlayerAnd replace the 'rockboxlogo.DIMENSIONSOFSANSALCD.bmp' with your own
05:33:20Soul-SlayerBut I could be wrong...
05:34:54SirKnightok, it wasnt named that, but i found it. Now, do i have to compile everything after i edit that one file, or can i insert that one file into my current build? Can i just compile the one file that becomes a part of, not the whole thing? im probably way off the beaten path...
05:35:15Soul-SlayerSo in your case, rockboxlogo.176x54x16.bmp I think
05:35:33krazykitedit it first
05:35:35Soul-SlayerReplace that file with your custom one, then you need to rebuild.
05:35:35SirKnightcorrect.
05:36:09SirKnighthmm. ok. there is NO way just to find out what file that becomes compiled into, and compile that ONE file?
05:36:32Soul-SlayerWell, all you need to do is replace it and run 'make' in your build folder again

05:36:49Soul-SlayerAnd it'll only remake what has changed.
05:37:10LloreanIt becomes compiled into rockbox.mi4
05:37:34LloreanSo you kinda need to rebuild that, and you should always rebuild plugins so their version matches your main binary version, at which point you've rebuild everything anyway
05:37:58SirKnightwell, for the sansa its simply a folder with data, titled ".rockbox" that sits in the root of the player
05:38:05LloreanYes, I know
05:38:09LloreanAnd I know what's *in* that folder.
05:38:15Soul-SlayerAll builds are like that, but the .bmp file isn't there
05:38:24Soul-SlayerIt's compiled into your rockbox.mi4 binary file.
05:38:57SirKnighti have rockbox currently, and ive never seen a m14...
05:39:08Soul-SlayerIn your .rockbox folder
05:39:23Soul-Slayerthere is a rockbox.mi4 file, which is rockbox itself.
05:39:32SirKnightach, stupid me, i see it. thanks
05:40:07SirKnightthen whats all the other files?

05:43:37SirKnightThen whats all the forum talk about editing it?
05:43:56krazykitit's somewhat more than that, really
05:44:12Soul-SlayerThe bootloader is the first thing you see, and sets up the environment as it were
05:45:02krazykitit not only tells the device which firmware to use (rockbox or original), it also has usb mode and a method of forcing the settings to default
05:45:08SirKnightthe rockbox logo splash screen is run by the bootloader.
05:45:16LloreanNo
05:45:26SirKnightOh, thats afterwards.
05:45:26LloreanIt's run by the main Rockbox binary
05:45:44Lloreankrazykit: It has no method of forcing the settings to default
05:46:02krazykiter, shoot, that's in the main binary innit.
05:46:04midgeylinuxstb: i didnt have any problems with qt on mac
05:46:09SirKnightSo what would someone accomplish by editing the bootloader?
05:46:23LloreanSirKnight: I don't know, it depends on what they want to do.
05:46:26Soul-SlayerDepends what you did to it.
05:46:41LloreanIt's just a program like any other, in theory you could remove the bootloader entirely and put Rockbox where the bootloader is kept.
05:46:53linuxstbmidgey: Oh well... I guess I'll try again at some point.
05:46:59SirKnightWell, yes, but whats possible? I dont see what you get get it do do besides....boot.
05:47:08Soul-SlayerWhy would you want it to do more?
05:47:10SirKnightcould get it to do*
05:47:13LloreanSirKnight: As I said, *anything* is possible.
05:47:37krazykitSirKnight, well, you could set which firmware gets used by default. you could make it so you have to win a game of chess before it'll go into a firmware, etc etc.
05:47:45Soul-SlayerIt's exactly what it says, a bootloader, it boots the main binary... You could make it so your sansa did nothing but boot into a game of Pong if you wished.
05:47:47SirKnightI wouldnt, there just seems to be a lot of forum talk about it. at least i came accross some, and i didnt understand it.
05:47:48midgeylinuxstb: well, right now rbutilqt crashes in setDevices()
05:48:14*midgey summons bluebrother
05:48:18SirKnightOh, I see now.
05:48:42linuxstbmidgey: Glad to see someone working on rbutil on the Mac though - it's in need of attention.
05:48:48Soul-SlayerThe Sansa and Ipods are unique in the fact they their bootloader needs to be put on a hidden partition
05:48:58SirKnightthat makes more sense...not playing pong of course, but see what might be possible.
05:49:26midgeylinuxstb: i never got wxMac working right, but rbutilqt seemed to be working decent before todays changes
05:49:40linuxstbmidgey: The opposite to me...
05:49:54midgeyhaha exactly
05:50:03SirKnightHaha, I like to think Im great at computers and everything about them, until
05:50:14SirKnighti get into stuff like this.
05:51:11Soul-SlayerAnyone fluent in C, have I got this right? ifdef means 'If <something> is defined', ifndef means 'If <something> is not defined', undef means 'Undefine <something>'?
05:52:02linuxstbSounds right to me.
05:52:27Soul-SlayerWhat are the benefits of #define ABC over like... bool ABC = True ?
05:52:45linuxstbIt's done once at compile-time
05:53:05Soul-SlayerAhh, so it's more of a constant held in binary
05:53:22Soul-SlayerRather than executed every time you run something
05:53:27***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
05:53:28linuxstbSo if the #if is false, then the code inside isn't included in the application (the compiler never even sees it).
05:53:43Soul-SlayerAha, got it
05:54:06Soul-SlayerMakes perfect sense, just couldn't see it... Thanks
05:54:26Soul-SlayerAnyhow, it's late, this can wait til tomorrow... Later even... Night all

05:55:06Soul-SlayerGigabeat S, M:robe, ipod 1/2G are currently being worked on
05:55:10Soul-SlayerNo problem
05:55:15SirKnightAnd Thank you, KrazyKit and Llorean
05:55:23*Soul-Slayer scuttles off
05:55:25 Quit Soul-Slayer ("Leaving.")
05:57:17SirKnightWhen Im looking at the rockbox traker for patches, how do i know which will work for which devices?
05:58:02 Join hcs [0] (n=agashlin@rockbox/contributor/hcs)
05:58:27LloreanOften it's more or less a case of "hope" both in relation to your device (if it's not mentioned in the comments) and in hoping that it's not needing re-syncing
05:59:27SirKnightah
06:00
06:03:11SirKnightJust a shot in the dark here....Is it possible to DEcompile an existing mi4?
06:04:25LloreanYes, but you wouldn't get C source, and there's absolutely no reason to.
06:04:32LloreanRockbox is open source, and we provide the source code for all revisions.
06:04:50LloreanAnyone who provided you with a rockbox mi4 is required, by the GPL, to provide you with a copy of the source if you ask
06:06:09SirKnightI know about that, but its been irritating compiling from source so far, i was curious as to whether i could decompile a mi4 that is working for me, so i know im using good files, in sync.
06:06:34LloreanWhat do you mean by decompile, exactly?
06:06:38SirKnightand then add to it, then recompile.
06:06:41LloreanIf you compile the MI4, then you have the good source for it right there...
06:06:47LloreanWhen you compile it doesn't destroy the source.

06:08:18 Nick hcs is now known as spanish_inquisit (n=agashlin@63.99.57.35)
06:08:19SirKnightI know, Im talking about ditching my current project, and working from the mi4 i currently have on my player. I know it is good files, in sync. So i was wondering if i could decompile the mi4 that is working for me into source files, so i could add to that and recompile it.
06:08:26 Nick spanish_inquisit is now known as hcs (n=agashlin@63.99.57.35)
06:08:52jjjcan some one help me install rockbox on a 1st gen nano plz
06:09:45SirKnightThe current source files i am working with obviously arent valid, so I was wondering if it is possible to add to an existing mi4
06:10:00LloreanSirKnight: Why don't you just check which SVN revision is is, check out that revision, and re-apply the patches you used?
06:10:42BigMacAnyone use the wikipedia patch yet?
06:10:48linuxstbjjj: What's the problem? I assume you've found the install instructions in the manual?
06:12:30SirKnightBecause I downloaded CPCHANs custom build over the daily build, whixh is working great. I wanted to customize it a bit, so i got the source files of the CPCHAN custom build, but they werent valid, even though the compiled download version works fine. So I want to decompile the working mi4 of CPCHAN that i am using, rather than get the source files that I already proved to be no good.
06:12:45jjjyeh im readin it am i right u stick .rockbox folder in the root and run the boot loader patch ????
06:12:49LloreanSirKnight: Then ask him for valid files.
06:13:07LloreanSirKnight: Decompiling is a lot more complicated, and you're not going to get the same data out as you put in
06:13:40SirKnightalright, i will let him know and explain the errors...but can you tell me if it is strictly possible or not to decode/decompile a working mi4?
06:14:33LloreanAs I said, it's possible, complicated, and not going to get you the same output as what was put into it.
06:14:50SirKnightok.
06:15:01LloreanYou're looking for the most difficult solution to your problem.
06:15:15SirKnightim trying to find a set of bmp files in it to replace.
06:15:19LloreanThe right solution is requiring that cpchan meet his GPL obligation and provide the exact source files necessary to compile his build.
06:15:56SirKnightOk, will do, thank you. Maybe i didnt download the correct set of cygwin?
06:16:27linuxstbjjj: Yes - just follow the steps in the manual.
06:16:27SirKnightthere were a billion options of things to skip or keep, and i tried to follow the Walkthrough, but maybe i screwed up.
06:16:44SirKnightbut yes, I will contact him.
06:17:30linuxstbSirKnight: The first thing to do is to try and compile an unmodified copy of the Rockbox source - to check you can compile OK. Then try and compile modified (patched) sources.
06:18:06SirKnightyeah, that would make sense wouldnt it, :p. thanks ill check that
06:18:26SirKnightwhat are database.tcd and glyphcache files?
06:18:35BigMacNobody has used the wikipedia patch
06:19:30linuxstbI don't recall anyone mentioning it in here. Maybe it's discussed in the forums (Rockbox or maybe elsewhere like misticriver).
06:20:30BigMacYah, I have searched the forum, read the flyspray, and started reading the 27 page long mistic river thread, but still have no idea how to grab thedump
06:20:34LloreanSirKnight: Those are files generated by Rockbox, the first having to do with the database, and the second the fonts used.
06:21:02SirKnightoh gotcha
06:23:23 Quit jjj ()
06:23:42SirKnightIf I copy over my custom build with a daily build, how many things will be changed?
06:23:58LloreanI don't know what you're asking
06:24:08LloreanEverything that they changed will be different, of course...
06:24:11SirKnightI want to keep the most recent rockbox, but dont want to lose modified plugins, wps, etc.
06:24:39LloreanPlugins *might* work, if they're "new" (as in, not in normal Rockbox)
06:24:44LloreanBut anything else won't work.
06:24:47LloreanEspecially WPSes
06:24:47 Quit linuxstb ("CGI:IRC (Ping timeout)")
06:25:28SirKnightoh really? so if i have a wps i like from week 1, and i update rockbox in week 2, week 1s wps wont display/
06:25:49LloreanIf you have a WPS that works with Official Rockbox, it should always work
06:26:03LloreanIf you have a WPS that requires the patches in the cpchan build, and install official Rockbox, it won't work any more
06:26:12SirKnightoh right
06:26:35SirKnightbut the wps variables (%_something) will always be valid?
06:26:49LloreanNot always
06:27:00LloreanSometimes the official ones get updated or changed slightly
06:27:14SirKnightok
06:27:35LloreanBut there will be a note in the changelog when those change, of course
06:28:40SirKnightWhat is "Karaoke for DirectX". I know directx, but ive never heard of this karaoke,,....and i have a .bin file with description "karaoke for DirectX" in my rockbox folder
06:29:05LloreanThat's not one of our files, then.
06:29:12LloreanDirectX has nothing to do with Rockbox
06:29:33LloreanPlease, don't ask questions about things unless you're using an official version, we can't be expected to know what somebody else has added or changed.
06:29:38SirKnightwell, its ".bin" file....maybe windows is making stupid file associations.
06:29:44hcspossibly
06:30:02 Join Rocco [0] (i=42d67ab4@gateway/web/cgi-irc/labb.contactor.se/x-36022c63cf2f4b0b)
06:30:02LloreanThe only .bin file Rockbox has, afaik, is nvram.bin
06:30:11SirKnightthats it.
06:30:34LloreanThat's specific things to remember across reboots, such as the resume position
06:30:54SirKnightit was just dumb windows making associations then.
06:34:05SirKnightDoes RB use the pictures or photos folder for graphics?
06:34:14SirKnightor does it matter?
06:34:26Roccohi, i was wondering about the sansa e200r series, does anyone here know anything about them?
06:34:36LloreanWhat do you mean "for graphics"?
06:34:44Roccoi couldnt find much on the forums about it
06:34:45LloreanRocco: Depends on what you're going to ask.
06:34:59LloreanThe forums, for example, say very explicitly clearly why there's not a port yet.
06:35:10Roccowell i saw a post saying its possible to flash it to the e200 series firmware
06:35:25Roccobut it never went into detail, was that a dead end?
06:35:26LloreanOh, where did you see this post?
06:35:38LloreanAs far as I know, there should be nothing more than saying it *might* be possible.
06:35:42LloreanOr possible "should be"
06:35:51SirKnightWell, when you point your player to open pictures...i think the OF looked for jpgs in "pictures" but rockbox looks for them in "photos"
06:35:56SirKnightor is it the other way?
06:36:06Roccoyeah, thats basically it. but it never was continued, it just kinda got pushed off the topic
06:36:08LloreanSirKnight: Rockbox doesn't have a "point your player to open pictures"
06:36:12LloreanYou just browse to a file and click on it.
06:36:29LloreanRocco: Nobody found a way to make it work, simple as that
06:37:06Roccook... so its still a myster on this device?
06:37:14LloreanThat's what the forum thread says, yes...
06:37:46Roccook, and do you know if there are any hardware differences in the r and non-r versions?
06:37:59SirKnightThis must be a custom build dependent thing again. I apologize, im not familiar with the differences between it and the main build. Thank you for your help with everyting though. youve been surprisingly polite to an irritating newbie.
06:38:23LloreanRocco: Nobody has confirmed any yet, but I don't think anyone has investigated thoroughly
06:39:13LloreanSirKnight: We are somewhat well known for having "halfway decent" support. But I do strongly recommend trying an official build before asking questions, since we do require any questions you ask be about official ones.
06:40:21SirKnightDefinitely.
06:40:50Roccook, well considering the r series is meant to be used with rhapsody. is tehre any kind of drm management build into the hardware thats not on the other version
06:41:01Roccoand now that i read that over it didnt make much sense.. its been long day..
06:41:39SirKnightRocco: this is a quote from a forum post at "anythingbutipod" The encyption on the firmware is different from that of the standard model.
06:41:39SirKnightso while progress is being made it is slow as the major effort is to get a version for the standard one realeased. However IF the ecycrption is cracked porting the e200 rockbox work to the e200r series should be a doddle as they are on the whole identical.
06:42:13LloreanSirKnight: It's not that the major effort is for the standard one.
06:42:18Roccoso the rhapsody encryption is software, not hardware
06:42:23Roccothanks...
06:42:23LloreanIt's that nobody who owns an R-series is doing much work on it.
06:42:35LloreanRocco: How would you encrypt hardware?
06:42:58Roccoim not that good at this
06:43:11Roccobut i believe the zune uses hardware with the processor it has
06:43:13SirKnightall of what i posted was a quote
06:43:36SirKnightI didnt mean to split it up.
06:44:14SirKnightRocco: go here, youll find everything youre asking for...http://www.anythingbutipod.com/forum/showthread.php?t=10730&highlight=e200r
06:45:03Roccook.. thanks
06:45:20Roccowait, didnt sansa support this "mod"
06:45:31Roccoso why not just ask them for the r series
06:45:36Roccohelp
06:45:38SirKnightI read somewhere that they asked rockbox to do it.
06:46:16LloreanThey initially contacted Rockbox, but they've not provided any real help
06:46:20SirKnightAFAIK the e200r wont accept anything unsigned in the bootloader..
06:46:40SirKnightbut the e200 will
06:46:40LloreanThey didn't even give us the ability to sign our code so that we could load it, which would be the absolute most basic help they could give us beyond their donation of hardware.
06:47:19Roccohas anyone contacted them and simply asked?
06:47:33Roccowhat encryption it has or security that the e200 doesnt
06:47:44LloreanRocco: Please, read through the whole e200R thread in our fourms
06:47:45Lloreanforums
06:48:08BagderRocco: http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=9263
06:48:32Bagderand the encryption is not like in the zune
06:48:38Bagderwhere the mcu itself has the magic
06:48:53Bagderbut this is tricky enough
06:48:54 Part Rocco
06:53:05SirKnightOoooooh, one more question before i go to bed....should i get sana updates?
06:53:10SirKnightsansa*
06:53:39SirKnightfirmware updates for my OF?
06:54:16LloreanIf you use it, and really want to. There's no reason to if you're just using Rockbox, and it'll probably require reinstalling the bootloader
06:54:31SirKnightah i see, thats a no for me then.
06:55:42SirKnightGoodnight all, thank you for great support and a wonderful rockbox

08:56:17Lloreanddalton: If your diffs are changing every line in the file, rather than just the lines you changed, you've got a problem. The best method is to simply know your tools, and whether they have an option for line endings or not.

08:58:30ddaltonWell I set it to unix and I still get 3700 lines in my patch I only changed about 10 lines and the orridginal patch had 1700 lines. Do you know of a good text editor for cygwin or windows that I could use. I just want to convert those files to unix and then hopefully I can make this patch.
08:59:12LloreanPlease stop saying "convert those files to unix"
08:59:16LloreanThat statement on its own makes no sense.
08:59:33LloreanUnix is an operating system.
08:59:35markunLlorean: but in some editors it looks like that
08:59:48LloreanIn some editors it'll refer to "Line ending style" as "Unix"
08:59:48markunLlorean: "File format: DOS, UNIX"
09:00
09:00:05ddaltonOk then so how do I change the files to unix line endings? is that better?
09:00:10LloreanBut if he ever wants to talk to someone, he needs to say "Unix format" or "Unix style line endings" as if he says "Convert the files to Unix" he'll just confuse the heck outta someone

09:03:44nerochiarois that kept in sync from time to time, or is it just an old snapshot ?
09:03:48Bagderbased on that code at least
09:04:06Lloreannerochiaro: It's new enough that there's not really "keeping in sync" to be done yet
09:04:25Bagderremember that this is fixed-point WMA
09:04:33Bagderffmpeg is not, afair
09:05:07LloreanBagder: I assume we're going to be submitting ours back to them once it's able to decode the same files theirs is / is equivalent?
09:05:08markunnerochiaro: saratoga is the guy working on it. First it was based on an old snapshot, but he has been porting back some recent changes from ffmpeg
09:05:17ddaltonSo can I convert files to unix line endings with this command. How would I convert the rockbox source?
09:05:18BagderLlorean: I'm quite sure of that too
09:05:26ddaltonto unix line endings.
09:05:35Lloreanddalton: Any files you've changed, "dos2unix filename"
09:05:37markunnerochiaro: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/WMA
09:06:09ddaltonK I will give that a go
09:06:22nerochiarois ARM a supported target ?
09:06:27markunyes
09:06:45FalenI'm stuck again.
09:06:46nerochiarodoes it use any of the armv4l optimizations that the ffmpeg decoder seems to use ?
09:06:51Falenint read_bmp_file(CONST_IMAGE_FILE, &image, sizeof(something), FORMAT_NATIVE)
09:07:00 Join petur [0] (n=petur@rockbox/developer/petur)
09:07:30Bagdernerochiaro: there's some (arm) opts in there, but I'm sure more can be made
09:07:49FalenThe max size is confusing me, not sure what it asks for
09:09:15nerochiaroBagder: well, i think i'll give this decoder a shot by porting as an xmms2 plugin and try using it on the Neuros OSD then. since it's integer based it should be better performing than the one straight from ffmpeg anyway, i suppose
09:09:33Bagderindeed
09:09:41Bagderand you have a much speedier ARM than we do
09:09:50Bagder(except for the gigabeat)
09:10:06LloreanHow fast is the Neuros OSD?
09:10:16nerochiaroLlorean: 200Mhz
09:10:32LloreanAh, yeah I'd imagine it should be realtime
09:10:51markunnerochiaro: the 300MHz ARM9 based Gigabeat decodes 320kbit/s WMA at 500% real-time with our code
09:11:00markunhttp://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/CodecPerformanceComparison
09:11:55nerochiarosounds great. even 3x realtime would be enough i think
09:12:11ddaltonLooks like the dos2unix command did the trick thanks.
09:12:39markunddalton: so you have a bug to report to the guy who wrote your editor..
09:12:41Bagdernerochiaro: indeed, especially in your case when you're not running on battery
09:12:58LloreanYou need 3x realtime?
09:13:00nerochiaroBagder: nope, no power drain concerns
09:13:44nerochiaroLlorean: well, the CPU isn't going to be used only for audio playback at times, so it helps for it to be somewhat faster than realtime. i said 3x just as a guess estimate
09:13:55nerochiaroLlorean: but the faster the better
09:13:57 Join miepchen^schlaf [0] (n=hihi@p54BF7FA8.dip.t-dialin.net)
09:14:08LloreanYeah, faster is always better, I was just startled at the "needs 3x" number.

12:06:35nerochiarolinuxstb: ARM926EJ-S to be precise
12:06:44linuxstbnerochiaro: Make sure you also look in apps/metadata/asf.c - the code there does the initial parsing of the ASF file, and the wma codec itself skips the header in the file and uses information read by the asf parser.
12:07:05nerochiarolinuxstb: ok, thanks
12:07:06bluebrotherThe-Compiler: does that mean that you're referring to color targets?
12:07:32The-Compilerbluebrother: it does
12:07:42linuxstbBut you may want to look at different ASF parsers - the one in Rockbox was written from scratch (and hence is new and maybe buggy) and is very specific to the way Rockbox codecs work.

12:16:59safetydanThat's weird. I add something and the builds get smaller?

12:48:36GodEater_it looks like the dircache version of open() doesn't mind trailing slashes

12:48:36GodEater_the question is, do I code round that, or does one of the versions need fixing to make the behaviour consistent ?

12:49:06pondlifeCertainly they should be consistent
12:49:23pondlifeWhat does POSIX specify?
12:49:42GodEater_no clue
12:49:57GodEater_I suspect the non-dircache version is poxisly correct though
12:50:04GodEater_or posixly
12:50:10pondlife"If there are any trailing slash characters in string, they shall be removed"
12:50:20pondlifeI think this means they can be present and should be ignored...

12:52:43amiconnThey don't help "sleep" mode though

12:53:27pondlifeDo they have any relevance to the later generations, I wonder...
12:53:52markunpixelma: thanks :)
12:54:07amiconnThe DEV_EN bits are different on PP502x, and the OF quirk that helped me find them isn't present in later generationds
12:55:14pixelmaGodEater: don't know if it helps you any but e.g. the stats plugin works on multivolume targets, I remember amiconn had to fix something with a trailing slash to make it do (don't recall details but maybe it'll draw his attention ;) )
12:55:51GodEater_pixelma: working around the issue is trivial - I've already done it
12:56:06GodEater_I just don't know which version of open() needs "fixing" in the RB code base
12:56:34pondlifeProbably best to modify the dircache version...
12:58:00amiconnHmm, DerPapst isn't around :|
12:58:18*amiconn could need a 3rd gen owner to do some tests

14:28:29Soul-Slaye1I can't see how you can put a timeout on a button.
14:28:43Soul-Slaye1But uh... I'll just avoid using that option as I don't understand it
14:29:26peturas in 'wait for a button to get pressed'?
14:29:51Soul-Slaye1Ahh. That makes far more sense.

15:00:15amiconnSeems like I found the sleep function in the 2nd gen's ROM dump :)
15:00:52aliaskThe function to put it into deep sleep?
15:01:10GodEater_snore()
15:01:15*amiconn wonders why many people call it 'deep' sleep
15:01:29amiconnThere is only one kind of sleep in the 1st and 2nd gen
15:01:31GodEater_it doesn't dream ?
15:01:33GodEater_:)
15:01:37aliaskI suppose I think of sleep as perhaps being sleep()
15:02:17aliaskAnd deep sleep akin to windows' hibernate
15:02:32amiconnYes, and that is what it's _not_ like
15:02:39amiconnWindows hibernates to disk
15:03:09aliaskWhat does the iPod hibernate to? RAM?
15:03:17amiconnyes
15:03:35aliaskAh
15:03:36amiconnThe later models can also hibernate to disk, and they can also cut power to the PP
15:04:16amiconnBut the kind of sleep where the OF wakes up instantly on button press is like suspend-to-ram
15:05:21Domonokybluebrother: now that we moved the mountpoint selection.. should we remove the windows for installs which dont need more info ? or should we use this info to present information ?
15:06:34bluebrotherwell, those windows don't contain any information so I'm for removing it.
15:07:06bluebrotherI'm just not sure if we should just start installing or put a confirmation dialog instead
15:07:26Domonokyi think confirmation would be good.. :-)
15:07:44bluebrotherbut as you can uninstall Rockbox without problems I think a confirmation dialog isn't strictly necessary.
15:07:55bluebrotherotoh users might expect one ...
15:08:39bluebrotherbtw, I hope you like the way I present the values ;-)
15:08:53Domonokyyeah it looks nice..
15:09:20Domonokybut one bug: it doesnt save the path if you enter it by hand :-) only if you browse for it..
15:09:28bluebrotherthought it would be good to emphasize it using bold text. Fortunately that is really easy :D

16:11:18GodEater_any feeling one way or the other ?
16:11:31Bagdercan you recap the issue?
16:11:54GodEater_when dircache is enabled, open() will return success on a directory when the path to includes the trailing /

16:12:46GodEater_I'm not sure which is the correct behaviour
16:13:08Bagderallowing the slash seems like more forgiving, but I'm not sure more forgiving is the better choice for us
16:13:29BagderI would expect most POSIX systems to work with the slash or not
16:13:35GodEater_indeed
16:13:41GodEater_that's what pondlife read
16:14:35Bagderis the slash passed in in several places in the code?
16:15:02GodEater_well I only turned the issue up in my plugin
16:15:04GodEater_so I guess not
16:15:09GodEater_otherwise we'd have noticed it before
16:15:28Bagdertrue
16:15:36GodEater_at least I assume so
16:16:10GodEater_I'm not really sure how many other bits of rockbox use open() on a directory rather than opendir()
16:16:49Bagderprobably not that many

16:48:56The-CompilerGodEater_: nvm... I think it would be interesting anyway.
16:49:17pixelmakallepersson: the mini's display has 4 shades of "grey": black, white, dark and light grey. Colour bitmaps used as icons or in the wps for example are automatically reduced to these 4 tones - dithered if necessary. It should work but maybe it doesn't look as nice, but as been said it's harmless to try.
16:49:20GodEater_then sure
16:50:09The-CompilerSoul-Slaye1: I think that would result in a chaos :D
16:51:33pixelmakallepersson: plugins like the jpeg viewer for example can use the greyscale lib which gives more shades
16:54:50rasherThe-Compiler, you could do it in a temporary channel for people interested in getting interviewed. That way you can interview multiple people, but not as much chaos.

17:08:06rasherSoul-Slaye1, could be, but it could also be more cpu-intensive. Especially if it has any sort of AI in it (I don't really know what kind of game it is).

17:50:41GRaTTseem to have lost the rule to make install
17:51:29christian_because it seems like my amarok does not do anything rockbox specific...
17:51:34Domonokybluebrother: its not needed, dont know why i have done this .. :-)
17:51:43pixelmachristian_: I don't think people in here know about that, you should get in contact with the amarok guys somehow
17:52:23Soul-Slaye1christian_: There is no 'rockbox specific', all it can do that is special is copy your music onto the disk, just like a normal copy procedure
17:52:27Domonokybluebrother: but i see other problems.. we create object with new but we never delete them.. :-) (i tryed to delete some, but got problems..)
17:53:34christian_ah alright! thanks! Thats more than the Amarok people knew... But indeed thats not special at all :-(

17:55:44Domonokybluebrother: i just read up, deletion isnt really a problem, we just have to make sure, every object has a parte
17:55:46The-Compilerchristian_: In the newest version rockbox should supporting rockbox.
17:56:02Domonokybluebrother: a parent.. then qt will delete it for us..
17:56:48Soul-Slaye1christian_: Still, if it does do anything special you're better off asking the Amarok team.

17:58:37Soul-SlayerDomonoky is a dev though so you may be better off with him if he has the time :p
17:58:51*Domonoky is also not a great rockbox dev, mostly rbutil :-)

18:01:35christian_Ok thats what I also read but nobody seems to know what it actually does. Not even on the amarok channel...
18:01:55Soul-SlayerI can tell it's a hit :P
18:02:05Soul-SlayerI really can't see what special feature it could be

20:03:54amiconnIf you boot into the OF, then plug usb or firewire, and unplug it again, does the OF reboot or does it return from diskmode without rebooting?

20:39:22amiconnIt does matter in english.lang, as that is the master

20:41:28The-CompilerAny user/developer of rockbox here who have time to give an interview for my german Rockbox-Podcast? (Yes, I ask this question now the third time today :D)
20:42:15rasheramiconn, I don't think genlang keeps new strings in order. At least dansk.lang and italiano.lang were in a totally different order when I just checked.
20:42:46amiconnYay! Found the last extra power consumer. Now I can make rockbox sleep as deep as the OF :)
20:43:04markunpixelma: not feeling like giving an interview? :)
20:43:09amiconnStill a huge hack, but a breakthrough imho

20:43:53amiconnThe DAC
20:44:04amiconnA simple audiohw_close() fixes it
20:44:13Lloreanamiconn: Meaning we can have quick shutdown/startup on iPods? Or just on 1/2/3G?
20:44:17bluebrotherThe-Compiler: the other part of the question would be if someone is interested getting interviewed ;-)

20:45:09LloreanAaaah
20:45:29LloreanI wouldn't mind a fake *or* a real one on the later iPods just so people would stop asking for it. ;)
20:45:39amiconnAnd for G3 this isn't needed, as it can be shut down for real
20:46:11bluebrotherdoes this also give hope to get the power consumption on 4G+ ipods to a better level?
20:46:18amiconnThe fake standby will behave like a shutdown, just that a small current draw remains
20:46:20bluebrotheror is that completely different for those models?
20:46:35amiconnThat's something very different needing separate investigation
20:47:25bluebrothertoo bad
20:47:42amiconnNot bad, just more work
20:48:08amiconnPP5002 and PP502x differ in many details, but they share concepts
20:48:17LloreanIf I recall, you had a lead in the PP502x power consumption issue anyway?
20:48:26amiconnSo understanding how things work on PP5002 help figuring out PP502x
20:49:37amiconnNot yet, but I learned today where to look

21:29:38PaulJamLlorean: with the current build it said that the database is not initialized. but i was able to access the database again by installing a build from before that change in order to export my runtime stats.
21:30:23bluebrotherchristian_: no. There is no standard tag for that across file formats so it's kinda pointless.
21:31:34christian_ok. I asked because I use this tag within mp3s to store my ratings...
21:31:56bluebrotherRockbox has its own rating stored in the database.
21:32:22bluebrotherbut you're free to write a converter ;-)

21:35:04ZenMasterJGso i've just tried the past two daily builds on my ipod video, and i get an error "data abort at 002FC84" whenever i try to play anything. I haven't tried older builds yet, but i dont see anything about it in the bug database... anyone know whats up, or should i submit a bug report?
21:35:22amiconndan_a: Next test would be to set it like the 2nd gen OF sets it, and check whether everything works

21:47:54rasherbluebrother, Well that was an easy fix..
21:48:58bluebrotherthe page is nice. Two thoughts:
21:49:23bluebrother(1) is there any note what version of the lang files are used?
21:49:31bluebrother(2) how about generating diffs for posting?
21:51:06ShayArnettanyone with 5.5g ipods care to comment on battery life of rockbox vs apple firmware?
21:51:33 Part ZenMasterJG
21:52:13authumalkthe battery life is about the same as with the apple os
21:52:26rasherbluebrother, I have the version of each file stored and can easily include that, yes. Creating diffs is not going to be as easy. Besides, posting langs as full files in the tracker rather than diff has long been accepted afaik. I think it was even preferred at one point.
21:52:28ShayArnettare you able to play unprotected wmas?
21:53:08LloreanShayArnett: Yes you can play unprotected WMAs, and no the battery life isn't as good. Expect somewhere around 2/3 of what you get in Apple, for most people it seems.
21:53:20ShayArnettcool
21:53:22Soul-Slayerauthumalk: Ehm, about the same? It's about 50-75%
21:53:34Soul-Slayer^^

21:53:49***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
21:53:52LloreanUnder identical conditions
21:54:00ShayArnettprolly give it a shot then.. i am definately not looking forward to converting all my music to mp3
21:54:00authumalkit's not terrible
21:54:02LloreanFew people using Rockbox though use it under identical conditions as the Apple firmware.
21:54:18authumalktrue
21:54:28bluebrotherrasher: never was aware that posting complete lang files was preferred.
21:54:39authumalktrue
21:54:57Soul-SlayerShayArnett: Current WMA decoder is in early stages, you can't seek and stuff yet
21:55:01bluebrotherwho wants wma anyway? :P
21:55:19Soul-SlayerWell, ShayArnett apparently :).
21:55:22authumalkpeople who want wma want wma
21:55:37bluebrotherthere are people who want wma?
21:55:40authumalkpersonally mp3 and flac work for me
21:56:04amiconnLlorean: It seems to depend on the individual target. For G5 and Nano it seems to be ~2/3
21:56:12amiconnSome PP5020 targets only get 1/2
21:56:20rasherbluebrother, well, it might just have been a comment someone made somewhere, but it certainly was accepted at one point at least. But anyway, it will be difficult for me to generate a diff, I think, so I think it's the best I can do.
21:56:29bluebrotherrasher: how about adding a comment line at the top of the generated lang file that states the revision of the original file?
21:56:49rasherbluebrother, I'll do that at once
21:56:51bluebrotherit's great to have such a page anyway. Good work!

22:08:13bluebrotherrasher: what do you think about adding a note about the last update of a language?
22:09:03rasherbluebrother, that'd be difficult, since the languages get edited once in a while by devs without actually being updated
22:10:01bluebrotherok.
22:10:24LloreanYou could always say "Last edited (date) or earlier"
22:10:48 Join obo [0] (n=obo@rockbox/developer/obo)
22:10:51LloreanThen, if you could catch the last time all the languages were touched, you could post that date too, so any languages with the same date as that are probably "earlier"
22:10:55rasherTrue, but I don't think that's terribly useful. The last 9 edits to afrikaans.lang were not actual updates.
22:11:03LloreanAaah
22:11:26LloreanCan we add a date line into the language files, for keeping track of how old the actual translation is then?
22:12:13rasherActually, I guess I could just ignore those specific commits when looking for the "last updated" date.
22:12:45LloreanI actually think a date in the file might be nice overall, so someone doing a svn checkout still can know very easily when the last update was.
22:13:11rasherI'm doing screenscraping from ViewVC though, so it's not terribly easy to do anything (rasher.dk is hosted on a Windows box which I do not control)
22:13:43amiconnIt would be more interesting to see how many strings are actually translated

22:13:59LloreanNot something on your side
22:15:21rasheramiconn, why? Isn't it more interesting to see how much work there is to do? I have "missing strings" and a percentage though, so it's sort of already there

22:35:48Bagderbuild.rockbox.org served 266 GB in july, www.rockbox.org 156 GB
22:36:39Bagderclearly someone had fun last weekend
22:37:00Bagderon build.rockbox.org we average roughly 4GB/day
22:37:05bluebrotherwhat's the usual value?
22:37:06Bagderon july 30 it was 99GB
22:37:18peturwhoa
22:37:34Bagderand on the 31st down to 45
22:37:52Bagderand now we're on 4 the last few days again
22:38:20bluebrotherwow. Someone tried to hammer the site or tried to fill up new hard disks?
22:38:56pixelmawasn't that the day, the server was down for a while (30th)?
22:39:06Bagderyeah, 136GB downloaded from one single IP address during July
22:39:07peturBagder: Zagor also on holiday I take?
22:39:24pixelmaor 31st?

22:41:31pixelmaah no, that was the yesterday...
22:42:02pixelmas/the//
22:42:20rasherBagder, well at least it was just a single IP. Easy to block.
22:42:27rasherAnd detect.
22:43:03Bagderah yeah, non-stop downloading of the... source package
22:43:27rasherThat's a few mysteries solved, then.
22:43:38Bagderindeed
22:44:07Bagder~14 downloads started per second...
22:44:16Bagderthat just can't have been a mistake
22:44:24peturand continued till the end?
22:45:25Bagderit went on and on and on and then it stopped
22:45:47Bagder16742 downloads
22:47:39rasherIt always confuses me when opensource projects get targeted.
22:48:32Bagderit is a strange world
22:48:47bluebrotherindeed.
22:49:33LloreanI'd assume someone who wanted to act out on a target that wouldn't be likely to do anything back.
22:50:28rasherThis is where our mob connections come in handy.
22:54:52Bagdertrying out the new pics now
22:55:23bluebrotherhmm. How about centering them?
22:55:40Bagdera good idea
22:55:55 Quit davina ("xchat on Ubuntu 7.04")
22:55:58bluebrotherthey look a bit too polished for the website style ;-)
22:56:01LloreanI do like the new pics a lot though
22:56:04LloreanFeels... cleaner or something
22:56:11bluebrotheryeah.
22:56:30*petur votes for centering too
22:56:44Bagderthere's no gigabeat pic in there
22:58:00Bagdercentered like now?
22:58:13bluebrotherhmm. I have a gigabeat picture
22:58:20bluebrotherseems I forgot that when uploading
22:58:44LloreanBagder: That looks quite nice.
22:59:20bluebrotherBagder: http://www.stud.uni-karlsruhe.de/~uhcn/rockbox/devices/gigabeatf-small.png
22:59:23BagderI think this looks neat
22:59:41bluebrotheryeah. Much nicer.
22:59:48pixelmanot in IE though... (yet) ;)
22:59:52rasherAnd it even looks reasonable (not good, but reasonable) in IE
23:00
23:00:15Bagderbluebrother: thanks, updated
23:00:20petur840 and counting...
23:00:33bluebrotheryou're welcome :)
23:00:46Bagderwe only miss the 1g2g now. I put the 4gray there
23:01:12bluebrotheryeah, the manual misses it too. Otherwise we could even start building it.
23:01:22Bagderah right
23:01:58bluebrotherthe images aren't centered on the manual page yet.
23:02:07peturok to close http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/4931 because we have custom keyboard layout?
23:02:14*pixelma takes the advantage to remind amiconn about the scan
23:02:33Bagderthe manual and daily pages have more text in the boxes
23:02:46BagderI'm not sure centering that text will look as good
23:03:28amiconnrasher: Looks identical in IE to me...
23:03:39Lloreanpetur: Is the current keyboard easy to use in plugins?
23:04:00bluebrotherwell, I also somewhat dislike that the table column aren't evenly wide ...
23:04:15LloreanThough, I'd close it as 'Out of date' with a request to open a new one containing only the points modern Rockbox doesn't address (if any)
23:04:15peturI have no idea
23:05:29rasheramiconn, Using IE7? It looks slightly wrong (white edges) in IE6
23:05:45amiconnIE7, yes
23:06:38LloreanIsn't there a webpage somewhere that'll show you how your page looks in a wide variety of browsers?
23:06:41bluebrotherbetter than pink ;-)
23:06:42*Llorean recalls seeing that somewhere
23:06:55bluebrotheryes, I recall something like that.
23:07:32*amiconn has 12 browsers installed
23:07:48amiconnIE6 and lower don't handle PNG transparency, but that's known
23:08:09rasherbrowsershots.org ? Doesn't seem to respond though..
23:08:13 Quit desowin ("use linux")
23:10:13amiconnbluebrother: Why didn't you remove the curved arrows from the wheels, btw?
23:10:26bluebrotheroh ... seems I overlooked them
23:11:23bluebrotherthe text is on its own layer, so I usually just disabled that layer.
23:11:48bluebrotherjust checked the sansa image. Those two arrows aren't part of that layer :o
23:11:53pixelmathe text was mostly added by tucoz, that's why it's on its own layer
23:12:32pixelmaI provided the arrows with the graphic - was easier than adding them later
23:13:19bluebrothermoving the arrows to the text layer isn't complicated.
23:15:31*bluebrother goes doing so
23:15:35rasherpixelma, do you need higher res images than these: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Ipod_1G.png and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Ipod_2G.png ?
23:15:36pixelmasure
23:18:49pixelmarasher: I think they'll do, thanks :) The most important part which makes work easier is that there is no angle and I can distinguish the important parts.
23:19:24pixelma(or almost no angle/perspective)
23:21:28amiconndan_a: back?
23:22:37 Quit BigMac (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
23:22:51*amiconn thinks that the 3rd gen now deserves to be listed as 'supported' on the front page
23:23:24amiconnI don't have one myself, but with the new clock handling it should be stable, and it plays music without skipping
23:23:57amiconnAnd if my 2 patches work, it will be the first supported PP target that doesn't suffer from bad battery runtime in rockbox
23:24:25amiconnThe only thing missing is USB detection (afaik)
23:24:43amiconnBut it detects firewire since yesterday
23:26:30Bagderadded
23:26:33crashd_amiconn: how did you get decent battery in g3?
23:26:47bluebrotherBagder: updated the icons once more −− no arrows in the scrollwheel icons anymore
23:26:54bluebrotherunless I overlooked something again
23:27:07Bagderthe zip file updated too?
23:27:12bluebrotheryes.
23:27:44amiconncrashd_: It's not in SVN for 3rd gen yet (the battery runtime improvements. Stable operation is there)
23:27:51bluebrothergrabbing the files individually must be somewhat painful ;-)
23:28:03crashd_amiconn: is it 3g specific?
23:28:15amiconnTwo key things: (1) HDD poweroff. This was already researched by ipl, and works on my 2nd gen
23:28:18Bagderbluebrother: updated
23:28:24bluebrothercool :)
23:28:29amiconn3rd gen should be the same, the others are definitely different
23:29:32amiconn(2) Disabling unused parts of the PP chip. I was lead to it by differences in register setup depending on whether I used flash diskmode or OF diskmode before
23:29:47amiconn(the 1st/2nd gen OF reboots after exiting its diskmode)
23:30:52amiconnI also discovered that the backlight on the 2nd gen is a real battery drainer, even though it's not a colour lcd...
23:31:09crashd_older tech or just ineffecient electronics ?
23:31:10amiconn100mA, more than the rest of the player draws at 80MHz
23:31:18crashd_not entirely exclusive, ofc
23:31:39bluebrotherwow, that's much
23:31:44amiconnWell, if the backlight really is what it looks like, it uses white LEDs
23:32:05amiconn..and white LEDs weren't as efficient as today back when the 2nd gen came out
23:32:43amiconnbluebrother: Indeed. Rockbox now draws just 45mA when sitting idle, HDD powered down
23:32:57 Join XavierGr [0] (n=xavier@ppp261-220.adsl.forthnet.gr)
23:33:13amiconnBefore my 2 changes, it drew 69mA when idle...
23:35:28rasherhow about during playback?
23:36:02amiconnDuring playback there is no stable reading of course
23:36:13 Part low_light
23:36:25amiconn...due to boosting/unboosting all the time
23:37:04amiconnBut I actually expect a longer runtime than what is stated for the OF
