00:01:52sarixewhy didn't i get that the first time?
00:01:55sarixe:P
00:02:14bluebrotheror add a big don't panic tab in rbutil that gets shown upon startup?
00:02:22bluebrotheror even a splash screen? ;-)

00:08:33sarixewould it be relatively easy to implement, n1s, do you know?
00:09:08sarixeor anyone else?
00:09:11n1ssarixe: i don't know if it's easy but it is not a wanted feature
00:09:30Lloreann1s: I think people are okay with a gap removal feature if it's optional, and fairly slim.

00:34:17saratogadid you notice a speedup?
00:34:33saratogai originally did it like that because I didn't realize rockbox could take higher precision
00:34:46saratogapreglow suggested removing that step ages ago, and i forgot about it

01:42:13saratogamarkun: sure, i'm just starting for the day
01:43:00zei've been dreaming of rockbox on a karma for years... its original firmware is indeed very good, but i'd still take rockbox any day
01:43:28zeespecially if it could make better use of the ethernet port :p
01:43:42saratogano IP stack in rockbox, so probably not
01:43:47zeand the display
01:43:49saratogaunless you're intersted in writing one
01:47:11zewell ya know
01:47:21zei'm still skeptical about rockbox ever making it onto the karma :/
01:48:18zegetting it to accept new firmware is a stumbling block i haven't heard of any progress on
01:48:29zethough *shrug* maybe the right people just haven't tried yet :p
01:49:28krazykitze, i dunno, the karma's a dead player anyway

01:53:01SeanInglisMy Marma is well-worn and no longer used. Had a Rio Carbon, a Sport and a couple of Forge's - all spot on. F40 + RockBox is near perfect now, at least if I ignore the touchpad and use the remote. The touch-sensitive cross is bloody awful.
01:53:29LloreanIt works pretty well if you treat it like buttons, rather than like something touch-sensitive.
01:53:33SeanInglisAnd my *Karma* is even *more* weathered.
01:54:29krazykitman, it'd be sweet to have rockbox on the carbon... i might have to look into what kind of guts it has, see if it'd be somewhat possible
01:55:01SeanInglisLLorean: I wondered if perhaps I was just being too gentle, but I' a bit paranoid about using too much force and sticking it "on" is some direction. Remote use is very well thought out, so I'm happy :-)
01:55:18***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
01:55:33LloreanYou don't have to be very gentle. I mean, excessive force is bad, but you can apply about as much as you do to the side buttons.
01:59:10SeanInglisAh, and if I follow your advice and bust it, you'll give me a refund on RockBox, right? :-) Trouble is it's still a bit too shiny - I need to scratch it up a bit and all will be well.

02:07:33SeanInglisLlorean: A narrow escape (due solely to ignorance - didn't know there was an X-series). Anyway if the old Karma is any use to devs, you're welcome to it (PM mrsean2k). Night all.

03:10:24LloreanOr...
03:10:29LloreanMy brain is not working well right now
03:10:56saratogasame thing
03:11:02saratogai'm really bafffled on this one
03:12:37LloreanAs an array is a pointer anyway, why can't you just have the original pointer point to the location in IRAM?
03:12:52saratogaits because of how it gets linked together
03:12:55LloreanAh
03:13:24saratogaif i decalre it as int var[MAX_CHANNELS][BLOCK_MAX_SIZE];
03:13:31saratogathen it ends up being continuous in the struct
03:13:49LloreanSo you need to put the array in IRAM, and a pointer to the array in the struct?
03:13:58saratogayeah
03:14:02saratogai've done this before
03:14:06saratogai don't know why its not working here
03:14:44LloreanWhy then not just "fixed32 (*frame_out)" without the []s?
03:15:07LloreanI'm not sure I see how they're necessary.
03:15:11saratogathat would break the array notation
03:15:33saratogai'd end up with a 1D array that was really long instead of the 2D array
03:15:47LloreanAh, right.
03:15:53saratoga(learned that one the hard way)
03:15:53LloreanSomehow I never think in 2D array.
03:16:25LloreanAnd *(s->frame_out)[ch][0] gives the proper value?

03:24:08saratogaLlorean: no it doesn't
03:24:16saratogaso i guess i'm setting this whole thing up wrong
03:24:42LloreanWhat does just s->frame_out[ch][0] give? An appropriate value or an address?
03:25:07CruleworldIs there a way to setup a server i'm paying for to make a custom build?
03:25:28krazykitCruleworld, depends. do you have root access to that server?
03:26:25saratogait gives a pointer
03:26:29krazykiter, assuming, of course, it's a *nix server.
03:27:12saratogaCruleworld: sure, i do all my rockbox work on a remote server
03:27:29Lloreansaratoga: Is it in the right location to be IRAM?
03:27:47saratogaLlorean: for now i'm just doing it on the PC so its not actually going into IRAM
03:28:08saratogai'll outline the whole process
03:28:34saratogai decalre this: fixed32 frameout[MAX_CHANNELS][BLOCK_MAX_SIZE*2] IBSS_ATTR;

03:28:50saratogainit the pointer like so: s->frame_out = &frameout;
03:29:17LloreanThen fixed32 frame_out[MAX_CHANNELS][BLOCK_MAX_SIZE * 2]; should work
03:29:20LloreanWithout the *
03:29:21saratogaand the entry in the struct looks like this fixed32 (*frame_out)[MAX_CHANNELS][BLOCK_MAX_SIZE * 2];
03:30:12LloreanI think
03:30:18Cruleworldwhat do you mean root acess?

03:31:15saratogayou don't actually need root
03:31:27saratogathought its somewhat easier if you do
03:31:31iambeni build mine w/ my normal user account
03:31:32LloreanNot necessarily, though often they may not offer shell access unless you at least have a virtual server, out of security wishes
03:31:51iambenwhy would you need root?
03:32:22krazykitwell, you don't NEED root
03:32:33krazykitmakes it easier for toolchain stuff, i suppose
03:32:34Lloreansaratoga: Oddly enough I don't have any shell access to my hosting, but I do have the ability to set up a crontab. I guess I don't understand security or something, as to someone newish to Linux like me, it seems about the same level of access as a properly restricted shell account.
03:32:40iambenwhy would you want root?
03:32:50saratogayeah i don't have root either
03:33:04krazykitthe problem is, some web hosts don't have gcc available to users
03:33:07saratogathe only thing that was slightly annoying was running the shell script for installing rockbox
03:33:21Lloreaniamben: I think root helps when running rockdev.sh depending on how you're configured.
03:33:29Cruleworldi'm using 1&1
03:33:48LloreanBut manual cross compiler install is pretty easy, if you read the documentation
03:34:47iambendoesnt rockboxdev.sh work fine if you just specify a $prefix that you can write to?
03:35:00saratogaalright i'm simply too annoyed to work on this now, going to look into seeking
03:35:05Cruleworldi have no clue what any of you are talking about
03:35:09saratogaiamben: yes you can make it work
03:35:16saratogai forget how but it wasn't that difficult
03:35:18Cruleworldwho me?
03:35:20saratogait might even prompt you
03:35:26Cruleworldme?
03:35:35iambenits not like its an ugly hack to make it work, you are supposed to edit the script and change options before starting it
03:35:55saratogahence my remark about it being "slightly" more difficult
03:36:13iambenright, we're on the same page now =)
03:36:24Lloreaniamben: "You are able to". It's runnable without any options changed, as it's expected to help people who don't know the first thing about linux.
03:36:29Cruleworldsoh ow it is done?

03:49:55wandanHaving a bit of an issue: sometimes when i boot rockbox on my sansa e200, it plays fine. Other times, it has(ERR) next to every song in a playlist. Other times it says "No Codec For" any song i have. But then i just reboot, and it somehow plays fine. If i try to open a text file, it may say "cannot find viewer", but then i reboot, andd it will work. Nothing is being modified between restarts, it seems purely random.

03:58:09LloreanA check disk might be good, you should only lose files if they were corrupt anyway.
03:58:18wandanYeah, the rockbox build from rockbox.org how often are the builds updated?
03:58:28LloreanEvery time a change is made
03:58:34LloreanWhich can be as often as several dozen times a day
03:58:38wandanoh wow
03:59:00LloreanThe link that says "Current build" really does mean "Current" ;)
03:59:05wandani thought it migt be weekly at most
03:59:30wandanok. and should i use current, or daily build? def. not using bleeding.
03:59:42LloreanCurrent is the bleeding edge.
03:59:53LloreanWhy wouldn't you want to use the most up to date build?
04:00
04:00:10LloreanWe don't even link to the daily build page except as an archive for if the current builds aren't available for some reason.
04:00:17wandani read that the bleeding edge build is likely to have bugs
04:00:25krazykitno more likely than daily
04:00:29wandanok.
04:00:45wandanso, use current build, not daily if possible.
04:00:51LloreanIf the daily build has a bug, you're stuck with it for 24 hours or unless you download an older one. If a current build has a serious bug, it's often likely to be fixed in the next build.
04:01:12LloreanAll the dailys are are the last "Current" build of that day.
04:01:38wandanSo its just for archival purposes.

04:28:26Soapwhich is cool. Rockbox, unlike many other open-source projects doesn't require laymen to need to know how to compile to get the freshest changes avaliable.
04:29:54SoapThat being said, Rockbox does have excellent instructions and excellent tools avaliable for those who with to build their own. Really first-rate support for those who want to tinker.
04:30:05wandani see. but are some patches deemed necessary and incorpoated into the official build?
04:30:29Soapno
04:30:42Soappatches are those bits of code which /aren't/ in the official build.
04:31:35LloreanOnce they're incorporated, there's not a patch any more
04:31:56wandanfor example, sansa e200 rockboxdoesnt have native album art support. But you can get it thtough a patch. Does this mean the oficial build will neve have album art support/
04:32:02Soapno
04:32:12Soapbut who would call album art "necessary"?
04:32:32Soapit's pretty, it's nice. But Lord known it isn't essential.
04:32:51Soapbut you are mixing your tenses also.
04:33:03iambenlook at the plugins list, plenty of unnecessary stuff makes it into mainline =)

04:34:04midgeyspeaking of patches, has anyone given FS #7546 a try?
04:34:16tihoc4nIn my opinion, album art is a battery drainer that has little cosmetic use. I don't even use it in the OF firmware, there are others who share my opinion there.
04:35:43Soapre: 7546. I only have color targets midgey.
04:35:58midgeysame here, i had to do all testing on the sim
04:36:23iambentihoc4n: would the battery drain really be significant?
04:36:30midgeyi hope the new lcd code is faster, but there's a good chance it isnt...
04:37:16saratogawandan: theres a GSOC project to properly implement album art
04:37:26saratogathe patch will never be accepted as is, but a better one would be
04:37:46saratogaand no, album art will consume negligable battery life
04:38:11wandanGSOC? sounds familar...vaguely
04:38:26saratogaat least when properly implemented
04:38:39saratogathe current patch has been rejected because it does consume too much power
04:38:45Lloreantihoc4n: On a flash based player, album art probably won't make a noticeable difference in battery life.
04:38:48saratogaGoogle Summer of Code
04:41:36tihoc4nLlorean: yeah, but I'm using a HDD iPod, but its just personal preference anyway.
04:43:31Lloreantihoc4n: On an HD based player, it's entirely dependent upon filesize of the album art, then.
04:47:22tihoc4nLlorean: I think its just bad experiences with me then, I've used "iTunes Art Importer 0.9.2" and it downloads large images, so yeah.
04:47:36saratogaLlorean: what was the issue with the patch anyway? did it just preallocate enough memory for X pictures and then start reading the disk if you had more then X pictures to load before the next rebuffer?
04:47:52wandangotta go, thanks everyone
04:47:59 Quit wandan ()
04:48:48Lloreansaratoga: It just added a static buffer for the album image as part of the ID3 struct, I believe
04:48:58LloreanSo for every song, whether it had AA or not, a chunk of the buffer was used
04:50:06saratogawow thats really dumb
04:50:25saratogayou'd think they'd just put a pointer to a global buffer
04:50:38saratogaat least try to minimize the waste
04:51:03LloreanWell I'm not really sure
04:51:12LloreanBut honestly, we waste the same way with ID3 data don't we?
04:51:25LloreanWe reserve X bytes for all the tags, even if the tags are minimal.

04:52:54LloreanI mean, I'm pretty sure there was a point at which it spun up the disk every song to load the AA, early on. But memory is imperfect so I could be wrong about that too
04:53:45tihoc4nWho did the iPod 2nd Gen Runtime test? What is the current rockbox battery life?
04:54:31LloreanThere is no current overall battery life.
04:54:40LloreanThe 2nd Gen battery life should only matter to you if you're using a 2nd gen
04:55:28tihoc4n"verified on 2nd gen" I'm just interested on how much more efficient rockbox is on it.
04:56:03LloreanYes, the code should actually work on the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd gen but hasn't been tested on all three

04:58:01tihoc4nI'm aware its just the earlier models, I'm just curious what it gives on that iPod, I know the OF runtime is 8Hours and that is pretty bad, just wondering what rockbox gave it.
04:58:05LloreanWell, first we don't recommend the daily build. It's not even linked to on the main page.
04:58:11LloreanSecond, I don't know which iPod you're talking about
04:58:19LloreanThird, "buggered" isn't a technical term, so I have no clue what you're talking about

05:01:29tihoc4nLlorean: its still good to know rockbox is heading in the right direction for the ipod runtime. (not that it wasn't, just until a couple of days ago they were "all" remarkably shortened.)
05:01:29LloreanIt may be the IDE timing thing, amiconn mentioned something about 5Gs and it as well
05:01:42Lloreantihoc4n: And the later iPods may stay so for quite some time
05:02:03LloreanThere's no guarantee that a similar discovery will be made any time soon
05:02:26AlbrightHmm, I jsut tried playing a short MP3 and it worked fine.
05:02:37AlbrightThen I tried a 24-minute track and it crashed in about fifteen seconds.
05:02:53AlbrightHmm, maybe this is something only happening with longer tracks.
05:03:27LloreanAlbright: Why don't you find an older build that works, then use binary elimination to figure out which build/commit caused the problem?
05:03:48Albright8:45 Ogg is staticky, but hasn't crashed yet...
05:04:02tihoc4nLlorean: yeah, I just have an interest in digital audio (and players) and the rockbox is proving to be a very interesting project to follow.
05:04:10AlbrightLlorean: I tried the earliest build I could find on the current build page... It was still having the problem.
05:04:24LloreanAlbright: On the daily build page you mean. The current build page only has one build on it.
05:04:35AlbrightArg, yes.
05:04:50LloreanYou'll have to compile older builds for testing
05:04:59LloreanIf you want to eliminate down to which revision it was
05:05:47saratogai don't tihnk theres a problem with the 5G builds
05:06:02saratogaif there were, i'd expect a couple hundred agry posts about it by now
05:06:09saratogaunless it was literally just broken
05:06:16Lloreansaratoga: Well, with the Nanos, so far it's only affected 4 people out of hundreds.
05:06:25AlbrightOkay. 12-minute Ogg, 11 seconds. Undefined instruction at 03F0053C.
05:06:28LloreanOn the Nano at least, it seems to be a specific hardware revision that doesn't react well
05:06:34Albright11 seconds into it, that is.
05:06:39LloreanAnd amiconn did say something about LinusN's 5.5G having IDE timing issues too
05:07:11LloreanAlbright: It'll be much more helpful if you simply identify when the problem started, as if it's the issue that I suspect it is, the addresses are nearly meaningless.
05:07:54AlbrightLlorean: It started happening yesterday when I decided to try to upgrade my version of Rockbox.
05:07:54saratogayeah that address doesn't map to memory in the PP chips, so its not very helpful
05:08:15AlbrightSorry, I couldn't tell you what version I was using before that, but it had to have been at least a couple months old.
05:08:23saratogaheh
05:08:39AlbrightSorry, I know that's probably not very helpful...
05:08:42saratogawell how much is a couple months
05:08:51saratogathe bootloaders were updated last spring
05:09:00Lloreansaratoga: Well it's probably a case of the codec itself being corrupt in memory if it's the IDE timing issue
05:09:13saratogaif you haven't update a botoloader since then you probably won't have much luck

05:19:09tihoc4nhttp://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=11435.msg87914#msg87914 thats where I've got that idea from
05:19:49Lloreantihoc4n: It's strongly suggested you read the manual
05:20:20LloreanAlso, if you read that thread, he's not talking about our current one, but a hypothetical future one to be put into flash
05:20:39tihoc4nLlorean: I have done although it was a while ago now.
05:21:04tihoc4nI understand that now. thanks
05:21:13AlbrightHmm, I just tried uninstalling the bootloader using the bootloader installer, and it said "no bootloader found."
05:21:36AlbrightSo I got rid of it somehow.
05:22:09LloreanDid you use the bootloader installer when you installed it?
05:22:33AlbrightThe very frist time, yes.
05:22:36Albright*first
05:22:44saratogayou could try rbutil
05:22:48AlbrightWith this iPod anyway.
05:23:02saratogait seems to work nicely on the ipods for updating
05:26:58AlbrightArg," No partition found." =[
05:28:00aliaskAlbright: Is the iPod FAT32 formatted?
05:28:16AlbrightYes.
05:28:25AlbrightUnless restoring it in iTunes "fixed" that for me... Hm.
05:28:44tihoc4nIt will be in HFS probably
05:29:01AlbrightAha. Good thinking, aliask.

09:03:34GodEaterdammit - there are SO many more S30s out there than S60s
09:03:56GodEaterand doing an HD upgrade will look stupid, since you'd need the back from an S60 - which are all black, and the 30 is silver

09:04:24GodEaterreally ?
09:04:32GodEaterI thought they only came in black

09:04:34GodEaterweird
09:04:37LloreanEvery s60 picture I've seen has had a silver back
09:04:47GodEatermust just be the front then

09:20:40ddaltonand how do the new voice files work?
09:21:12Lloreanpondlife: Are you using a voice file generated for the new language system?
09:21:15B4gder"someone" needs to make the voice things work again

09:21:37pondlifeLlorean: I'm using one n1s made for me after the endien-ness change
09:21:48pondlifeBut it segfaults the sim and does nothing on target.

09:22:03pondlifeEndien-ness is still in a confused state I believe.
09:22:14ddaltonthat's maybe why simulator wasn't working last night about 18 hours a go

09:25:57bluebananaI need a program on my iPod that will log the "time of day" (hours:minutes:seconds) when I press the middle/circle button.
09:26:11ddaltonpondlife how would you install it?
09:26:17pondlifeddalton: (Although I'd be very interested if you find one.)
09:26:23ddaltonpondlife do you know of a good windows synth?
09:26:25bluebananaI've talked to some linux users and they said it's just a matter of binding [ echo `date` >> log.txt ] to the circle-button. I think that
09:26:26bluebananathis is a super-easy program to make, but I've got no programming experience whatsoever. (I'm a recent convert from Point-and-click Windows)
09:26:41bluebananacan anyone help me with this?
09:26:48B4gderbluebanana: rockbox has no command line
09:26:54pondlifeddalton: I have always used the SAPI 5 synths (e.g. MS Mary) but that's broken at the moment, so I cannot build any voice files.
09:27:13bluebananaB4gder, yeah, I don't need command line
09:27:13B4gderbluebanana: as rockbox is not linux, that advice is totally bogus

09:27:39bluebananabut i understand that rockbox users can make programs

09:27:41bluebananaright?
09:27:48Lloreanbluebanana: Well, as Rockbox isn't Linux at all, the advice you were given doesn't relate to this project.
09:27:48bluebananaB4gder, i see
09:27:52bluebananaso it wont be easy
09:27:56B4gderbluebanana: but i would advice you to make a plugin for this particualr purpose
09:27:56bluebanana i suppose
09:28:10bluebananaB4gder, oh, plugins. yes. that may be what i am looking for
09:28:23pondlifeddalton: But, as I said, it crashes the sim and doesn't give me voice on the device :/
09:28:28bluebananai have no idea how to program. can anyone help me create this simple plugin?
09:29:24GodEaterwhen you say "help" sounds more like you mean "will you write it for me?"

09:30:55bluebananaB4gder, yes
09:31:00GodEaterpondlife: is building the voice file as simple as picking "V" when you run configure ?
09:31:18Lloreanbluebanana: You can get started with Rockbox plugins by finding a good C tutorial online, and looking at the hello world plugin code.
09:31:22scorchei do have access/contact with a lawyer who specializes in copyright issues now as well, for future reference
09:31:31bluebananaLlorean, gulp

09:34:07scorchepretty much, yes
09:34:25B4gderand it makes sense
09:34:35pondlifeGodEater: It should be, but it requires a suitable TTS engine.
09:34:45GodEaterpondlife: I have all three
09:34:45scorcheand we do not actively search/question images/content as is planned now, it is alright
09:34:56pondlifeGodEater: For Cygwin...?
09:34:56B4gderGodEater: then run "make voice"
09:34:59scorchebecause, that would give us knowledge of the material
09:35:03GodEaterpondlife: no silly - gentoo!

09:35:33GodEaterB4gder: ah - that's what I was missing!
09:35:41GodEatermake doesn't do much otherwise
09:35:47 Part modules
09:35:50scorchebut for now, we will be reviewing the entries based on technical aspects instead of issues of copyright
09:36:08B4gderGodEater: we should probably poke it to work with just 'make' as well...

09:37:06LloreanIt would be nice if "make" did whatever you were configured for.
09:37:10ddaltonpondlife it doesn't work I will try the latest build. but will have to compile (because the current build page isn't accessible from what I can tell. I will also try the latest english.lang. but they are both from the same revission. the ones I tried just then.

09:38:35ddaltonyeah your probably right. do you know why this is cause the .talk files work. (probably got nothing to do with it)
09:38:40GodEatershould the encoder options besides Lame work for voice too ?
09:38:52GodEaterfor some reason oggenc didn't work
09:38:56B4gderGodEater: I don't think so
09:39:02pondlifeddalton: I have too many unknowns to know what is borked in talk-land at the moment.
09:39:04GodEaterthat explains that then
09:39:12GodEaterwould have been nice to use speex

09:48:24pondlife14224 is the latest, I thought?
09:49:19pondlifeHmm, svn up says r14226, but svn log only gives r14224
09:49:26B4gderJdGordon: I don't really have an opinion on that
09:49:43Lloreanpondlife: 14225 and 14226 are probably Gigabeat S commits then
09:50:27ddaltonI don't know. it just said that when I did the check out thing in cygwin.
09:52:08pondlifeLlorean: Why are they not visible in the svn log? Different branch?
09:52:22aliaskYep
09:52:39aliaskThe mails still get sent out, but it isn't visible on the front page

09:59:01B4gderscorche: nice huh! ;-)
09:59:15GodEaterI asked when they arrived - and no-one told me!
09:59:22dionoeaor maybe list the matching viewers first, and then append those that don't match. (Or print the matching viewers in bold ...if that was possible)
10:00
10:00:07JdGordondionoea: I thought about that, but that screen isnt voiced, so blind users would get very confused if the order changes
10:00:10scorchesome...i think a background might be nice, or something...some devices have light borders, while others have dark...consistency is needed a bit
10:00:32scorcheam i correct in assuming they are scaled down versions of the vector images in the manuals?
10:00:34JdGordondionoea: also, I realised thats not as easy as I was hoping
10:02:07scorcheand the iriver h1x0 devices look a bit different than the scanner image (i dont have one, so cant attest to style variations if any)
10:02:09dionoeaisn't it possible to add voice support to the screen then?
10:02:24*dionoea never used voice

10:06:41B4gderLinusN pokes on it and we should have a new set soon
10:06:47B4gderpondlife: possibly
10:06:57B4gderI blame my cache system for the script
10:06:59pondlifeGreat. Also the ability to generate under Windows would be good.
10:07:05B4gderhe re-ran a fresh set that worked for him
10:07:17pondlifeI like to have a single voice for menus and .talk clips.

10:13:43pondlifeI would prefer to revoke the record button change (and maybe put the configurable record button in its place).
10:14:10pondlifeAlternatively we could use long play for USB charge, but I don't like that as much... and it'll probably break something else :)
10:14:17Nick_Brackleypondlife: yes I much prefer that as I never use the record screen and would prefer it to go somewhere else
10:14:24LinusNi personally think the rec button should take you to the recording screen
10:14:29Lloreanpondlife: Long menu, like on iPods, should work?
10:14:36LloreanIt brings up the quickscreen, but that's readily banished
10:14:47pondlifeYes, that would work
10:15:18pondlifeLong play does nothing at all (in WPS and browser) as far as a quick poke reveals.
10:15:36LloreanLinusN: How do you feel about a short press of record bringing you to /.rockbox/user (or some hard-coded folder) so that users can use it as a replacement browse .cfg, or themes, or favourites or playlists?
10:15:38pondlifeAlthough it is used as a shift key
10:16:12pondlifeLlorean: The configurable record patch that was rejected recently was nice.
10:16:13Nick_Brackleywhat about if the unit is on hold, it could just charge?
10:16:14LinusNLlorean: i saw that idea in the tracker, but i haven't given it much thought
10:16:26LloreanLinusN: Not a customizable menu, but it allows you to do some things a customizable menu can't at the same time as not really adding complexity anywhere.
10:16:37JdGordonLlorean: that needs to do nothing if the folder doesnt exist.... but thats easy enough to do
10:16:42Lloreanpondlife: Remember, customizable menus themselves generally are frowned upon.
10:16:58JdGordonpondlife: also, his implementation wasnt very nice imho
10:17:06pondlifeAh, I never looked at the code.
10:17:21LloreanI think a hard coded folder like that is kinda a "best of both worlds" situation.
10:17:48pondlifeLlorean: And make menu the USB charge override?
10:17:56pondlifeMENU I mean
10:18:23Lloreanpondlife: I'm indifferent. If play works better, that's fine with me.
10:18:33LloreanI was just suggesting Menu because it was one button I knew was "safe" to use like that.
10:18:45pondlifeNo. PLAY is needed as a shift key for folder skip and pitch.
10:19:01Lloreanpondlife: Aye, but play can do both without harm, right?
10:19:11pondlifeSuppose so.
10:19:20pondlifeMENU is completely clean though
10:19:33JdGordonplay as override for usb? I think menu would be better
10:19:56LloreanAnd that's just a change to the keymap for the h300 then?
10:19:57pondlifeSorry, not clean... wrong word...
10:20:04pondlifeYes. How about H100?

10:23:06GodEaterthank you
10:23:07pondlifeH300 target = big-endien, H300 sim = little-endien
10:23:14GodEateralthough I'm still not sure why my local voice files don't work
10:23:14pondlifetalk.c needs not to care.
10:24:37GodEaterwhat version of festival are you using ?
10:24:48LloreanIsn't that just a case of using fixed files (LE) and letoh?
10:24:59B4gderGodEater: 1.4.3
10:25:14LloreanOr are the voice files the same endianness of the target arch for some reason?
10:25:27 Quit Siku ()
10:25:43pondlifeLlorean: They shouldn't be any more (except for Archos), but talk.c has incorrect checks in, I think.

10:25:56GodEaterI appear to have 1.95 here
10:26:27Lloreanpondlife: Is it swapping for H300, rather than using the to-host macros?
10:27:10pondlifeNot sure.. #ifdef ROCKBOX_LITTLE_ENDIAN is the suspicious line.
10:27:27pondlifeWhich will be true on x86 sim

10:29:29LinusNaliask: i have no idea
10:29:44aliaskIt's just that they aren't on daniel's site
10:29:48JdGordonLlorean: re the .icons file, is it actually necassary to allow more than one? I mean can we just just hardcode the filename? It would make my filetypes.c cleanup/rework a bit simpler
10:29:53aliaskOnly 2g voices
10:30:06B4gderI guess I need to add mini 1g ones
10:30:09LloreanJdGordon: Don't you need one .icons file per icon theme?
10:30:18JdGordonshit, i meant .colours
10:30:24pondlifeBagder: Your voice files - I suspect the click might come from VOICE_PAUSE.
10:30:28ddaltonLinusN: Are those voices on daniel's site built under linux? should the makevoices script generate more than one file?

10:31:26LloreanJdGordon: I'm not sure. In theory, users might want different .colours with each theme, especially if say the colors conflicted with the backdrop
10:31:33JdGordonaliask: they are the same target, so I guess they would work
10:31:36pondlifeMaybe "ddalton: they are built on linux, yes" should be a GoldenQuote?
10:31:55B4gderJdGordon: not if the exact target id is checked in the lang file loader

10:32:44*JdGordon shuts up
10:32:51LinusNddalton: no
10:33:10ddaltonok so why does daniel's site have voice files for different players?
10:33:19LinusNddalton: the makevoices script needs to be updated
10:33:38B4gderddalton: starting just a few days ago, voice files are target-specific so you need to built each for a specific target
10:33:38LinusNto select which player to build for
10:34:00ddaltonLinusN: so when it is updated it will make a voice file for each player and it will work again?
10:34:26GodEaterB4gder: thanks
10:34:27LinusNit will probably let you select which player to build for
10:34:53ddaltonLinusN: Ok I will try this voice then.

10:35:48pondlifeddalton: No

10:37:04ddaltonpondlife I am blind so what about the vm should I be using that. I find cygwin slow sometimes and would linux help at all?
10:37:19B4gderthe clicks is not due to my script or anything, its a flaw in the voice build
10:37:37pondlifeNot the VOICE_PAUSE source?
10:37:44B4gderI don't know
10:37:53B4gderI've not even tried my voices...
10:38:21GodEaternope - that voice file doesn't work either
10:38:25pondlifeHmm, someone who understands genlang and voicefont needs to look at makevoices.vbs...
10:38:49pondlifeOr, I need to understand genlang and voicefont :)
10:39:00B4gderhave anyone using an ARM-based target got voice working?
10:39:17pondlifeIs ARM little-endien?
10:39:20B4gderyes
10:39:32pondlifeOK, has anyone got any little-endien target working?
10:40:07pondlifeMaybe the sim problem is the same bug.
10:40:15B4gderthat's my thinking too
10:40:40pondlifevoicefont should not be using SWAP4() ?
10:40:54ddaltonwell it still doesn'
10:40:58pondlifeAnd talk.c should not be #ifdeffing on endienness.
10:41:00ddaltondoen't work
10:41:13ddaltondoesn't I mean

15:30:13preglowjust make sure to use signed types
15:30:29bluebrotheraccording to K&R shifting signed values is implementation-defined
15:30:43preglowyup

15:40:22preglowyea
15:40:50preglowseems like it takes a number, adds its own sign bit to it, shifts result right by one, subtracts one, then masks away the top nine bits

16:06:07sarixethat sucks
16:06:16rashersdfoihawv, Alphabetical is not an option in that menu. "All / Supported / Music / Playlists" are your options
16:06:23Galoiscertain mp3 encoders like LAME support unofficial headers to circumvent the stupidity of the official spec
16:06:26sdfoihawvRasher: I got it
16:06:27sdfoihawvthanks
16:06:38sdfoihawvI figured it would be something simple like that :)
16:07:13B4gdersarixe: rockbox does not normally have problems with mp3 and gapless if you did them with a somewhat modern lame
16:07:19sarixeright
16:08:10rashersdfoihawv, so what was it set to? Playlists?
16:08:11sarixemeh, anyway... i was thinking of programming a gap fixer that skips to the next zero crossing. having no experience programming any multimedia software, how hard would this be?
16:08:30sdfoihawvyeah, I'm not sure how it got set to that though
16:08:35Galoisthe problem with gap fixers is that they sometimes remove end-of-track silence which is intentional
16:08:56sarixewell that's dB detectors
16:09:08sarixei'm talking about skipping right to the next zero crossing
16:10:20sarixealong the lines of XMMS crossfade plugin
16:10:35B4gderskipping from where?
16:11:23sarixefrom the last zero crossing of one song to the first of another, which i believe would only apply to tracks that meant to be gapless, but for some reason weren't.
16:11:36GaloisI don't see how any gap fixer could even theoretically work without occasionally discarding wanted silence, unless major advances are made in AI
16:11:43B4gderme neither
16:12:02sarixehm
16:12:04B4gderjust skipping from the last zero crossing seems... weird
16:12:24sarixewell i'm thinking that any intended silence would have to be a bit noisy, right?
16:12:41rasherProblem is, so is the "silence", iiuc
16:12:50sarixeno
16:13:00sarixeif the end of the frame is past the end of the song
16:13:06GaloisI've added completely zero silence to CDs before, intentionally
16:13:07Galoisthat's not noisy
16:13:27sarixethen it would all be zero from the intended end of the song, to the end of the fram
16:13:29sarixeframe*
16:13:58rashersarixe, I wouldn't be so sure. I'm pretty sure some artifacts of the compression "spills over" into the added silence.
16:14:07sarixehm
16:14:15sarixehow would that even happen?
16:14:16rasherpreglow should be able to clear this up, I think
16:14:28*B4gder can see preglow hiding in the corner

19:46:56Domonokybut i changed it a bit, to allow to run it without using signals..
19:47:16bluebrothernice, my Qt build just stopped with an error. Bad me, simply deleting the examples file for space reasons ... tsts :D
19:47:22Domonoky:-)
19:49:15LinusNbluebrother: i'm not sure the build-info file is the best place to put the information about engines and languages
19:50:08bluebrotherhmm. I'm open for suggestions.
19:50:21bluebrothermaybe a voice-info file using a similar syntax=
19:50:54LinusNcontaining a list of the languages available?
19:51:08LinusNlanguages=english,swedish
19:51:28bluebrotherfor example.
19:51:46LinusNi'll discuss it with daniel
19:51:56bluebrothercool.
19:52:29bluebrotherfor now we can extract the needed information from the daily file, but that just doesn't feel "right" to me.
19:52:32LinusNat present, there will be a build-info file containing the same info as the daily build-info file, but with [voices] instead of [dailies]

19:54:05bluebrotheryeah, I noticed that. Is it planned to have them on the download server too?
19:54:14LinusNnot yet, we'll see
19:54:32LinusNbut we'll probably have them all on the same server eventually
19:54:32bluebrotherok. No hurry, there is enough other work left.

20:25:00peturyes, I already have that one ;)
20:25:01FebsNot only that, but the "iMod" for the 5G requires a special dock cable sold by ALO, which is also in the US, I believe. (The caps used in the "iMod" don't fit in the 5G, so they are instead built into a separate dock connector.)

20:47:47DerPapstgood evening at all :)
20:47:58GodEater_good evening DerPapst
20:48:01Robin_WattsIf you look at Tremolo006 you'll see that I've released it under dual licenses.
20:48:19*petur shouts goodmorning to DerPapst :p
20:48:48DerPapsthehe
20:49:04Robin_WattsGPL for those that need it to be GPL, and my own homebrew license for those people who want to avoid the creeping viral evilness of the GPL.
20:49:06DerPapstthis time my watch is working fine :P
20:49:32rasherRobin_Watts, fair enough, didn't see that on a quick reading of the webpage
20:49:40*Robin_Watts updates webpage :)
20:49:50Soul-Slayerrasher: It's in the licence file of the latest release, not on the page though
20:50:14LinusNaustriancoder: how do you know that nothing is being transmitted?
20:50:31DerPapstaustriancoder: afaik amiconn put the fw and usb code in the same file because he wanted to get reboot to diskmode working when an firewire cable is inserted to the iPod.
20:50:59GodEater_sweet - so perhaps we could use it after all. Although it would introduce weird dual-libness as already stated
20:51:14DerPapsthe knows that this has to be separated once the usb code or the firewire code is doing more.
20:51:23salty-horseGodEater_, any policy against processor-specific optimizations?
20:51:42GodEater_salty-horse: no - we have that in some places already
20:51:53LinusNsalty-horse: if you look at our tremor code, you will see lots of ARM assembly
20:51:56rashersalty-horse, far from it, we have been using the same lib with processor-specific optimizations already
20:52:00GodEater_but I don't think we have anything as large as an entire codec that is processor specfic
20:52:07austriancoderLinusN: a register of the controller should change from 0x0 to != 0x0 (UDC_ENDPTSTAT) and in linux there is something called debugfs and with it can watch what is send and recived over usb. Also dmesg prints that usb device failed to...
20:52:13Robin_WattsTremolo will still build in C only mode.
20:52:42*GodEater_ suspects we probably have coldfire assembly too
20:52:53Robin_WattsAnd it's very close to tremor, so could probably absorb other stuff too.
20:52:55LinusNaustriancoder: what kind of packet is it?
20:53:03DerPapstafaik for all 3 architectures rockbox runs on
20:53:17GodEater_Robin_Watts: so your pretty handy with ARM assembly then ? :)
20:53:39LearRobin_Watts: Rockbox doesn't use the lowmem branch though.
20:53:59GodEater_DerPapst: we don't run tremor on SH1 though :)
20:54:03Robin_WattsGodEater_: I figured out that I had about 20 years experience of it the other day :)

20:55:02LearRobin_Watts: Don't know really; I didn't make that choice...
20:55:41Robin_WattsPrevious versions of Tremolo were the non low memory branch.
20:55:59Robin_Watts(IIRC)
20:56:02LearTried it a bit on a Coldfire target, but it was pretty slow. I suspect it was caused by the relatively slow RAM, but I don't know for sure.
20:56:25Robin_WattsGodEater_: Subject to time, sure.
20:56:42salty-horseRobin_Watts, do you need a supported portable media player? :)
20:57:10Robin_WattsI have a Rio Karma, and my wife has a Cowon iAudio thingy.

20:58:20GodEater_I wish I knew what I'd done with my karma
20:58:47salty-horseGodEater_, losing karma is bad
20:58:54salty-horse(bad karma)
20:58:59Robin_WattsLear: Are you saying that the low memory branch is noticably slower than the non low memory branch?
20:59:04GodEater_I have positive karma at slashdot, does that help ? :)

21:01:19Robin_WattsLear: Do you know the differences between the branches offhand? (I don't)

21:02:55LearRobin_Watts: Lowmem uses less memory by only partially unpacking codebooks (or something like that). Needs to do more processing/memory accesses during decode though.
21:03:48LinusNaustriancoder: i would suspect a clocking problem, but i am a usb lamer
21:04:42austriancoderLinusN: do you mean wrong time when i want to send?

21:12:28GodEater_markun: are you a closet phreaker ?
21:12:44Robin_WattsThe latest stuff has been done with ScummVM in mind. Specifically for the WinCE/DS/GP2X ports.
21:12:57Robin_Wattswell, all the ARM ports really.
21:13:04*GodEater_ would love to see a ScummVM port for rockbox
21:13:11GodEater_shame they chose to write it in C++
21:13:18markunGodEater_: not really, but I had to type very long phone numbers when I was in Paris
21:13:18Robin_WattsIndeed.
21:13:30*DerPapst likes the idea of a tone generator... something to tune a guitar with or so...
21:13:42DerPapstnot that i really play guitar...
21:13:58GodEater_a guitar tuner is somewhere in the feature requests already I think
21:14:44*markun has to go now
21:14:48GodEater_bye bye
21:14:56DerPapstit hasn't to be for tuning a guitar... it would be enough to annoy people with it.
21:15:01salty-horseGodEater_, the C++ choice is actually a rewrite of the original C code. I believe it's mainly due to lots of different versions of the SCUMM engine that needed to gracefully override each other
21:15:20GodEater_salty-horse: which is fine - but makes a port to rockbox a PITA
21:15:25Robin_WattsYeah, but there is no need to resort to C++ for that...

21:17:32GodEater_makes Java the same - only more blunt
21:17:43GodEater_so harder to hurt yourself initially
21:17:49GodEater_but when you do - it bleeds worse
21:17:50Robin_WattsIt's very rare to see a C++ thing that couldn't have been done perfectly well in C.
21:18:03Robin_WattsJava is Fisher Price "My first OO language".
21:18:14Robin_WattsIt's like C++ with all the sharp edges blunted.
21:18:50GodEater_could have sworn that was SmallTalk...
21:19:16DerPapstit's proven that you can convert every piece from one coding language o another... you can even convert c++ to c0... but who wants to end up with one mainfunction and a giantic while loop?

21:30:17Dimacusi started to build the DB for the first time, but my file counter went up to 78,000

21:31:14GodEater_DerPapst: :)
21:31:28Robin_WattsIf rockbox are seriously interested in using Tremolo, I could rerelease the older version (not the low memory branch) as GPL too.
21:31:44DimacusGodEater_: on the ipod or the pc?
21:31:50GodEater_the ipod

21:33:02GodEater_Dimacus: you want it hooked to the PC to do the check though surely ?
21:33:37Dimacusyes, let me run scan disk on the ipod to make sure there are no errors on the hd
21:34:03DimacusGodEater_: yes
21:34:37GodEater_Dimacus: also - are the 3000 songs that are there added from iTunes ?
21:34:43Dimacusyes
21:34:47GodEater_and do you use it for anything else (like a portable HDD) ?
21:35:02Dimacusno, i try to avoid abusing the tiny hd :)
21:36:01GodEater_so there's no other files on it apart from the iTunes music basically ?
21:36:12Dimacustrue
21:36:27Dimacusmaybe some images, let me check
21:36:48Dimacusyeah, i do have about 100 images
21:36:55GodEater_not 78,000 though :)
21:37:12Dimacusnope, nothing in that range
21:37:34GodEater_hdd check done ?
21:37:38LinusNaustriancoder: i mean that the clock to the usb chip could be wrong
21:37:55DimacusGodEater_: yap, windows says it's all good
21:38:39DimacusI guess it would be nice to have some sort of an indexing app that would run PC side
21:38:43GodEater_Dimacus: okay - well reboot it into Rockbox mode, and then re-insert you USB cable whilst keeping "Menu" held down, and make sure you KEEP menu held down or about 20 seconds or so
21:38:44peturLinusN: that would mean it is different between running e200tool and rockbox?
21:38:45austriancoderLinusN: hmm.. maybe, but how to check it? How to controll the clock? Why does rx works and tx not?
21:38:59GodEater_Dimacus: that's be suggested before - no-one's done it yet though
21:39:01Dimacusthat would be much faster then running it on the ipod with it's weak resourses
21:39:28DimacusGodEater_: I'll try the reboot option
21:39:33*GodEater_ wishes someone could work out why the menu button needs to be held down so long these days
21:39:56GodEater_if you don't hold it down for ages Dimacus then your ipod will reboot into disk mode
21:40:04GodEater_so give it a good long hold ;)

21:42:53Dimacusjust b/c i like pain, i'll do it in VB :-D
21:42:54rasherDimacus, could you perhaps have a lot of files in the recycle bin on the ipod?
21:43:25Dimacusrasher: i don't think so, i haven't deleted anything from it ever
21:43:34rasherDimacus, Such a program already exists (although only for mp3/ogg I believe), tools/songdb.pl in the source package
21:43:58Dimacusoooh
21:44:20austriancoderpetur: autodetection of device mode works :) Need to buy or build a cable to connect a usb mouse etc to check if host driver gets loaded
21:44:28austriancoderbut it should
21:45:28LinusNaustriancoder: i am by no means a usb expert, but reception might work because the data is NRZI coded, providing a clock sync
21:46:47austriancoderLinusN: but i dont see anything to sync clock in e200tool source
21:46:50austriancoderdo you?
21:47:09LinusNthat was just a wild guess

21:49:02BagderGodEater and rasher: yes it has, hardeep updated it
21:49:10salty-horsehow would rockbox benefit from optimizations to ARM tremor optomizations? less power consumption? or is it negligible?
21:49:14BagderI'm not sure if it still is 100% though
21:49:34rasherAh, I even modified songdb.pl when we renamed it to Database.
21:50:09rasherWhich was the latest change. I'm betting it needs to be updated, yes
21:50:48Lloreansalty-horse: Any optimizations to lower CPU usage will result in less power consumption.
21:50:52Domonokywould be nice if *someone* write such a songdb thing for rbutil :-)
21:51:02Dimacusrasher: where is the location of the "songdb.pl"? http://www.rockbox.org/tools/songdb.pl does not seem to be a link to the actual pl file
21:51:11GodEater_you're not volunteering then Domonoky ? ;)

21:51:23BagderPC_TOOL or whatever the define is
21:51:23LloreanDomonoky: Of course, rbutil will then need to be updated like... every time tagcache.c/h (or whatever the files were named) change?

21:53:16BagderDomonoky: well, since the code is there and at least already mostly made for getting built for host, it is a good start for rbutil... of course still takes someone to do the rest

22:00:49dionoeaCan a plugin load another plugin ? (loading the new plugin over the old one would be ok)
22:01:43amiconndionoea: No it can't, because plugins are linked to a fixed address. It would overwrite itself, causing a crash
22:02:05dionoeaok. Thanks for the explanation.
22:02:06LinusNaustriancoder: i see that you use OR to set the bits in the registers, but do you know for sure that they contain what you expect from the beginning?
22:02:30LinusNfor example USBMODE
22:02:32amiconnYou could work around that, but only for targets which allow plugins to use iram (and then this chained loading would have to stop playback
22:02:34amiconn)
22:02:42DerPapsthi amiconn :)
22:02:48austriancoderLinusN: I debuged this problem now for about 2 weeks.. and I looked at each register

22:03:18Bagderwell, a plugin loading a plugin could store the next plugin in a global area and return, and the parent would check the global and load the next

22:40:11LloreanIf you get 10 hours in Rockbox, you check on the OF after 9, so you don't have to do any real observation for most of the time.
22:40:19LinusNaustriancoder: that's weird

22:55:17austriancoderLinusN: with 0xc5000200 I get the same value as with 0xc5000600 (0x22fa05) -> seems that I really can not modify this register

22:59:59LinusNi see
23:00
23:00:02amiconn(eexcept of clock setup of course)
23:00:13Bagderrasher: but -o is _only_ made to satisfy the voice script makers so we can make it do whatever is fine to make voices easy
23:00:27amiconnI hope to be able to implement true suspend on 1st/2nd gen btw :)
23:00:29austriancoderLinusN: i dont think so... I cant also modify value of Setup Lockout Mode in USBMODE. Keep in mind that the pp usb controller uses same logic as the i.mx usb chip −−> pp chip needs not to be identical to i.mx chip
23:00:45LinusNaustriancoder: i understand
23:00:56amiconnWe can't shutdown for real anyway, and this way rockbox will be instantly available
23:01:57amiconnI'll still make it save settings before suspending, in case the battery runs out (which might happen)
23:02:08amiconnIt will be much like going into usb mode
23:02:15austriancoderamiconn: it would be very cool if you could look whats writen/read from 0xc5000xxx of PP502x. If you tell me how I can find it out by my own, I will try to do it on my own

23:08:56LinusNaustriancoder: so you receive a setup packet and get an interrupt?
23:09:01amiconn129->165% realtime (that was still at 78MHz iirc)

23:09:08austriancoderLinusN: yep...
23:09:57amiconnGoing dualcore will also help, but that's less important atm than suspend mode
23:10:15amiconn(and it requires figuring out some further details about cache control on PP5002)
23:10:23LloreanIs the plan now to have the codecs themselves decide how they want to make use of the second core?

23:10:33LloreanI notice there's an SPC patch that handles it this way
23:11:16amiconnWell, I am no dualcore expert. All this mutexing and synchronisation causes me headaches...
23:11:25LinusNaustriancoder: and the packet looks ok? what request type?
23:13:21austriancoderLinusN: yep... packet looks like linux debugfs showed me.. get descriptor -> USB_DT_DEVICE
23:13:26LinusNthis code: http://www.christian-gmeiner.info/soc/mrh_try7.diff, what is it?
23:13:37LinusNdoes it work?
23:13:53LinusNyou said that mrh's version worked?
23:13:59LinusNi'm confused
23:14:23austriancoderLinusN: it should... http://daniel.haxx.se/sansa/e200tool/e200tool-src.zip -> arm_code.c - i have copy almost 1:1 e200tool source of usb into this patch.
23:14:57austriancoderLinusN: I dont know if mrh version works...
23:15:03Bagderbut again, e200tool runs in manufacture mode
23:15:21Bagderquite possibly inited differently
23:15:54Bagderand yes it works
23:16:18austriancoderBagder: but it looks like descripted in http://www.christian-gmeiner.info/soc/MCIMX31RM.pdf chapter 32

23:21:08LinusNthe flush_icache() calls confused me
23:21:29LinusNshould probably be renamed to flush_cache()?
23:21:57amiconnIt's probably just to save some ifdefs
23:22:16LinusNof course

23:35:03austriancoderpetur: was idea of LinusN
23:35:20peturso 200 and 600 show the same data?
23:35:37austriancoderyes
23:35:47peturweird
23:35:56peturand 200 is read-only anyway

23:38:25DerPapstpixelma: yes. but i guess the problem is that the voice file is for the target and not the sim
