#rockbox log for 2007-08-13

00:03:45ddaltonI found the line snprintf(buf, 128, str(LANG_FM_STATION), freq / 100, freq % 100); Does that sound right. So now how do I find how the actual station frequency is displayed?
00:04:35bluebrotherthe frequency is in the variable freq.

00:06:45bluebrotherpixelma: tucoz noted that there is a description in the wiki on how to convert the svg images.
00:07:01bluebrotherhttp://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main//LatexGuidelines#SVG_images
00:07:32pixelmathanks, will take a look - not sure yet if it's feasable with cygwin though...

00:08:16DerPapstcould the svg be used for the sims too? i mean as background image

00:09:11*bluebrother laughs at the ccc frontpage ...
00:09:45pixelmathey would need some extra work if they wanted to be used in the sim (like a few side views maybe)
00:10:05pixelmaerm... if someone wants to use them for the sim
00:10:14DerPapstyeah... they have to be drawn..
00:10:25*pixelma obviously not completely home yet
00:11:25bluebrotherhmm, really? The few buttons that are on the side are named in the manual, so it should be possible for the sim as well
00:11:25pixelmaeven though svgs of the iriver and iaudio remotes are done (but not used yet)

00:15:28pixelmayeah maybe that'll do (I drew them so that the buttons are visible even though they might not be in reality - to save a side view)
00:17:13bluebrotherlooks also somewhat more "natural" than an attached side view
00:18:20pixelmaI'll try if I can figure converting the svg out myself - if not, I'll ask again tomorrow ;)
00:18:22amiconnAn idea for the Iriver sims: simulate changing remotes by changing the image as well =)
00:18:58pixelmayou can do that for all: attaching and detaching...
00:19:25amiconnAll targets with remotes available, yes

07:47:30alienbiker99hmm i wonder if the insignia has the same chips as the sansa
07:48:23jhMikeSamiconn: no special reason atm other than to keep sys bits most significant and the particular message code least though wanting to watch for a particular event range could be more efficient that way. there's no binsize penalty that came up.
07:50:19*jhMikeS must say though that a cache tester plugin shows odd behavior from the flush/invalidate functions on e200.

08:01:01amiconnjhMikeS: When receiving the usb connected event, it does some stuff, then flushes the queue, then acks and waits for disconnect. However, the flush might have flushed an usb disconnect event in 2 situations:
08:01:33Tempisalienbiker99, you can't beat that for 50 bucks
08:01:49alienbiker99i know, i need to get $50 first haha
08:01:49Tempisand 2gig microsd cards are only like 20
08:01:53amiconn(1) if either pcmrec_close() or reset_hardware() yield - didn't check that. (2) if the disconnect event was already in the queue as well when the thread got a chance to run
08:02:11Tempisnow the 4gig microsd cards need to come down in price
08:02:30alienbiker99idk if it supports 4gb microsd cards
08:02:53Tempiswell that would suck

08:06:07jhMikeSamiconn: hmmm....probably should check that more closely
08:06:22alienbiker99i think i might buy it to have a flash player
08:06:47amiconnIt's not very likely, because it would require these events to appear in quick succession
08:07:20amiconnDetection is delayed for debouncing, so it might in fact never happen
08:09:20jhMikeSit can never be in a recording state in the first place so the thread would be free to respond quickly
08:12:41jhMikeSI guess the usb_wait_for_disconnect function will do the clearing job anyway :)

08:16:19amiconnNo, it doesn't
08:16:41amiconnIt checks every single event whether it's a disconnect event. It doesn't use queue_clear()
08:17:04amiconnHmm, or maybe that's what you mean....
08:19:24jhMikeSbasically, but there is a problem with a thread blocked waiting for reply. it doesn't call queue_reply.
08:20:30 Join GodEater [0] (n=bryan@rockbox/staff/GodEater)
08:21:51jhMikeSqueues will auto reply in the core kernel update though so queue_reply would only be needed if a return value other than 0 is desired.
08:22:24*amiconn still doesn't really understand what this synchronous queue mechanism is for and how it works
08:23:53amiconnI mean, if 2 threads have to communicate and their actions must be serialized, why not just send a message from thread 1 to thread 2, and then wait for thread 2 to send another message back?
08:23:56jhMikeSto hold a thread for a reply to a specific message
08:24:04jhMikeSthat's what it does
08:24:11amiconnThread 1 could continue processing other messages in the meantime, not blocking it
08:24:53jhMikeShow would I write a message loop for a thread that has unknown function?
08:25:00amiconnBlocking the thread until that specific message is replied to might cause processing of other messages to stall
08:25:48amiconn...and processing of system-wide messages must be relied upon for usb (storage) connection atm, and, hopefully soon, for poweroff/suspend
08:25:51jhMikeSprecisely the idea

08:27:20jhMikeSsome messages there could probabaly just be posts, others must block the source thread
08:27:40amiconnjhMikeS: Yes, but using 2 separate messages would allow the requesting thread to react to other messages, which might be important
08:28:04jhMikeSwhere? sent to whom?
08:28:08amiconnImagine thread #1 sending a message to thread #2, hence being blocked.
08:28:41amiconnNow the user plugs USB, SYS_USB_CONNECTED being broadcast to all public queues
08:29:09amiconnRockbox won't go into usb mode until all those threads acknowledged the connection - but thread #1 cannot ack because it's blocked...
08:30:16jhMikeS1) recording won't be happening 2) if recording isn't happening the reply will be almost instant and the thread won't be blocked for but milliseconds at best
08:31:32amiconnI'm not referring to recording, but to the mechanism in general
08:32:44amiconnThis scenario will work if thread #2 ensures to releases the sender if it receives such a public event - but that's only possible if its own queue is also public...
08:33:07jhMikeSif recordin was blasted with messages to process, it will process them all before the USB connect is acked anyway so that thread alone will hold the connection up

08:34:10jhMikeSpublic events are posted and do not block any thread
08:34:58amiconnNo but a thread blocked by sending a synchronous message before won't be able to acknowledge a public message
08:35:02jhMikeSthe sender waits for a reply on the message pulled from a particular slot
08:35:08amiconn...until it is unblocked
08:35:42jhMikeSneither will recording ack the event until it gets it and the final acks will be delayed exactly the same
08:36:43jhMikeSthe thread that posted a message to recording may ack since it was never blocked, but recording won't ack until it processes the posted message first
08:37:21amiconn?
08:38:16amiconnA thread that *sends* a message to recording will be blocked until recording replies, correct?
08:38:28jhMikeSyes, of course
08:38:50amiconnAnd that thread can't ack another message until recording replies

08:55:25ddaltonhow can I check in my code what button was pressed. For example up on the iriver.
08:55:28jhMikeSamiconn: if usb_wait_for_disconnect calls queue_reply(0) in the loop all should be fine and that race condition gone and that should work as I intended in the first place.
08:57:40ddaltonhow do I voice a decimal number? for example 87.5
09:00
09:01:30*jhMikeS already wanted to voice demicals correctly but that's really not implemented for numbers in general
09:02:14amiconnWell, since we don't use float/double, you can't do that directly anyway
09:02:47amiconnBut output_dyn_value does voice decimals
09:04:05jhMikeSiirc the function is over-specialized and was of no help in trying to voice decimals in the gigabeat's tone controls.
09:05:12 Join petur [0] (n=petur@rockbox/developer/petur)
09:05:17ddaltonWhat arguments does output_dyn_value require?
09:05:20amiconnThat function is specialised for outputting high range values with prefixes
09:05:43amiconnThere were no other places where decimals were neccary back when coding it
09:05:44ddaltonbut what infomation do I need to give it.
09:06:01amiconns/neccary/necessary/
09:06:03ddaltondo I have to tell it what to voice
09:06:33amiconnIt can be used either for printing or for voicing. If you want both, you need to call it twice
09:06:47jhMikeSpersonally, I'd just replace the darn thing with a generic number voicing/formatting function
09:07:08ddaltonto voice a variable that is 2.1 how would I tell it to say it. and the variable is called i
09:07:40amiconnIn rockbox we don't use floating point variables, so no variable can have a value of 2.1
09:07:53ddaltonwhat about the radio?
09:08:05amiconnThe radio uses plain Hz internally
09:08:27amiconnSo it doesn't store 89.7MHz, it stores 89700000
09:08:36ddaltonso how would I speak that. I got it to voice the station but it didn't say the decimal
09:11:10ddaltonso how does it display 89700000
09:11:18ddaltonas 89.7
09:12:30jhMikeSsomething like snprintf(buf, len, "%s.%s", freq/1000000, freq/100000 %10)
09:13:12B4gderbut %d and not %s ;-)

09:39:07GodEateryou'd be better off posting them to the forum thread
09:39:43fm2Or should I repost them now?
09:40:20GodEaternothing stopping you...
09:41:54fm2GodEater: 1) Why do you call sc_init() (and hence load the default file) even if the plugin was called with a parameter, i.e. via the context menu?
09:42:12fm2(2) Why are there two different funcs for loading the default and a custom file? A copy-paste rest?
09:42:43fm2(3) In the plugin, the extension ".link" is hard coded. OTOH we want the association of file exts to viewers be configurable in the config file.
09:42:43GodEaterthe answer to both is the same: I didn't want it to do custom files when I started writing it
09:42:53fm2This is a contradiction IMHO, and it can be resolved by splitting the plugin into two. One would be only responsible for adding files to the default shortcuts file and would be called via the context menu (add). The other would load the files and show the links there. It would be configured as the viewer for .link files.
09:43:07fm2Then we could just remove the code that checks whether the file is a .link file from the plugin.
09:43:55GodEaterfm2: feel free to submit a patch
09:44:18fm2GodEater: I knew that :-))) But does this sound reasonable to you?
09:44:39GodEaterfm2: doesn't matter to me one way or the other
09:45:08GodEaterbesides, it doesn't matter if I think it's reasonable or not. If you want it commited - you'll have to convince a dev
09:45:56peturfm2: will you continue FS #7346 ?

10:28:04B4gderTempis: i do
10:28:10Tempishow do you like it?
10:28:22B4gderit's a neat little thing
10:28:51B4gdercurrently I use my x5 most of the time
10:28:58Tempiswhen you plug it in does it show up as just an external drive?
10:29:09B4gderyes, if I would boot the OF
10:29:22Tempisso you can just copy files to it and play them
10:29:27B4gderyes
10:29:32Tempisexcelent
10:29:59Tempisdo you have rockbox on it?
10:30:02B4gderthat's the way to go for all players rockbox runs on
10:30:07B4gderof course
10:30:14Tempisworks well?
10:30:23B4gderyeps, runs fine
10:30:36*GodEater suspects Tempis doesn't know who Bagder is...
10:31:05TempisI suspect you're right
10:31:40GodEaterput it this way, if Bagder said he was running anything OTHER than rockbox on a target, we'd accuse him of heresy

10:33:03B4gderI'm mostly blabbing about it, not poking on the lowlevel bits as much as some of the others
10:33:27GodEaterbut you do have MrH in your hip pocket too ;)
10:33:38B4gderhaha, yeah
10:33:44Tempiswell, I've been quite satisfied with the versions I've had my my two Archos players
10:33:45GodEaterwithout whom, the sansa port would have been a great deal more tricky
10:34:00*B4gder bows in MrH's general direction, whereever that is
10:34:28B4gderTempis: rockbox really is a lot more fun on more modern players than the archoses
10:34:29Tempisalthough I haven't been alltogether satisfied with the archos players themselves
10:34:32*GodEater still envisions a park bench looking at a lake somewhere, and two shady figures in trench coats...

10:36:31pondlifeResulting in a loss of silliness.
10:36:38scorchewe can make bork.lang
10:36:45B4gderTempis: the biggest downside is that rockbox runs slightly worse run-time wise on it
10:36:47Tempismy archos recorder bombed out this afternoon
10:36:53Tempisyeah, I read that
10:37:12TempisI don't generally listen for long periods of time, so it's not that big a deal

10:38:33B4gderit's not an easy issue to address
10:38:37TempisI'm sure it'll get worked out in the end
10:39:15Tempisand I'm sure videos and all those games drain the battery
10:39:31Tempisat least faster than just listening to some music
10:40:04B4gderyeah, but when we compare run-time we try to compare using the same usage
10:40:27Tempiscan rockbox access the microds slot in the sansa?
10:40:30B4gderyes
10:40:32Tempiserr microsd
10:40:36Tempisexcelent
10:41:04Tempishow's the access time when the sansa is reading from the slot
10:41:18Tempisthe same as from it's internal memory?

10:42:08TempisI'll probably get a 2gig card soon
10:42:32Tempisperhaps one day the 4gig cards will be usable
10:42:47B4gderI'm not sure about that

10:43:24n1spondlife: have you tried it with voice?
10:43:25bluebrotherthey mostly only use a different addressing of the sectors
10:43:47B4gderso its only a software/driver modification needed?
10:43:59bluebrotheras far as I understand, yes.
10:44:01pondlifen1s: I'm about to..
10:44:13B4gderthat's what I've been learning too, but I've not got it 100% verified
10:44:17bluebrotherbut iirc the sdhc cards aren't required to support spi mode any more
10:44:24B4gderaha
10:44:42bluebrotherso that could be an issue. But this information also could be wrong −− I haven't verified that.
10:45:00bluebrotherI just looked it up about half a year ago, when I worked with sd cards.

10:52:08pixelmabluebrother: do you remember the one who reported the scroll wheel not working in a sansa sim? Seems to be related to downloaded source (not checked out) - I just compiled a sansa sim from it to try to find out something else and got the same result (checked out one works fine); probably some file missing from the tarball...
10:52:57n1spixelma: I could reproduce it here just now with a checked out source...
10:54:26n1sYes, I broke it yesterday, enabling the wheel acceleration for the sim broke it, now to find out why...
10:54:27bluebrotherpixelma: the problem seems to be 64 bit related
10:54:28pixelmahmm... maybe my checkout is not the newest then...
10:54:47bluebrotherunfortunately that tracker entry is _really_ worse. *hmpf*
10:54:59pixelmaah, n1s seems likely
10:55:09advcomp2019one thing i know is the sansa connect is going to be able use sdhc cards
10:55:13bluebrotherhe asked yesterday evening and I tried on ia32 and told him it works on that
10:55:46B4gderare there really microsdhc cards available?
10:55:47bluebrotherand he also told he uses a chroot32 environment. Also not part of the task :(
10:55:59n1shmm, is a 'long long' supposed to be 64 bits on our targets?
10:56:03bluebrotheryes, they are.

11:28:42n1sjhMikeS: yes, after I enabled it for the sim yesterday, sansa sim has no up/down movement in lists, I've gotten as far as that button_apply_acceleration() always returns 0...
11:29:10jhMikeSintptr_t is 64 bits for a 64-bit system but only the wheel driver itself should set bit 31 in the data. unless the sim posts something with that set, the code shouldn't execute.
11:30:05n1sin the data variable passed to that function?
11:30:36jhMikeSyes. the driver should post a delta of 1 and not set bit 31.

13:04:20DMJCspeaking of, is anyone considering HFS+ support in rockbox?
13:04:23GodEaterno
13:04:25DMJCis it unfeasible?
13:04:28GodEaterit's on our NoDo list
13:04:32DMJCaww
13:04:56DMJCfat32 is annoying
13:05:00DMJCdamn 4gb file size limit
13:05:20*scorche removes the soapbox from under DMJC's feet
13:05:24*GodEater doesn't find that annoying on a DAP
13:05:44DMJC80gb player :) portable hdd not just a DAP
13:06:14*GodEater also has an 80GB player, and hasn't ever found a >4GB file he wants to carry round
13:06:17pixelmaFebs: you thing (ehm think) he'll understand the thing better this way? ;)
13:07:06DMJCGodEater: vmware virtual discs and dvd isos :)
13:07:17desowinthen 80gb is small
13:07:18n1sGodEater: what about all those week-long mp3s...
13:07:27DMJChehehe
13:07:30GodEatern1s: of course, how could I have forgotten
13:07:33DMJClol week long music file
13:07:40Febspixelma: just trying to speak his language. :)
13:07:46scorchedesowin: that is what my 160 gig HD in my archos is for =)
13:08:01DMJCI'd like to see somone fill an 80gb drive with midis
13:08:08DMJC:)
13:08:12n1syay, feature requests for unimplemented features... _)
13:08:14GodEaterwhat a weird thing to wish for
13:08:45DMJCwell it'd be interesting to see if there actually exist 80gb of midis
13:09:25pixelmadon't forget all the +4GB midis... *g*
13:09:34n1s:-P
13:09:46DMJChow long would a 4gb midi run for?
13:09:51DMJChehehe

13:10:27*scorche readies the offtopic stamp
13:11:16markunDMJC: feel free to work on it
13:11:18DMJCso more on topic, with power saving, is that likely to get worked on anytime soon?
13:11:26DMJCand yeah heh how would you go about doing it?
13:11:31markun(that was about NFS+)
13:11:36DMJCI figured heh
13:11:56markunrockbox is open source, you can change it any way you like
13:12:06scorcheDMJC: please search through the forum/wiki/irc history...these questions have been answered many times int he past
13:12:11DMJCk
13:12:23scorcheon that note, if you figure out how to do it, let us know =)
13:12:35DMJChfs+?
13:12:43scorchepower onsumption
13:12:50DMJCah k
13:13:01DMJCbtw that reminds me
13:13:13DMJCwhere is the top level menu defined? I might have a play around with that code
13:13:32DMJCthemeing tools were a bit limited for messing with that
13:14:25scorcheB4gder: how does one register as a developer on this?...i am not seeing proper documentation =P
13:14:56B4gderscorche: register first, then go to a project, view contributors, click "this is me"
13:15:09scorcheah...i shall wait till i actually commit then =P
13:15:33B4gderwell, you can still register you just can't get listed as a contributor until you actually are ;-)
13:15:48scorchei have contributed many times! =P
13:15:54markunDMJC: apps/menus/main_menu.c I think
13:16:08B4gderscorche: on ohloh, only commits count
13:16:12*GodEater has contributed a whole three times
13:16:45pixelmaB4gder: including all the "oops" commits? ;)
13:16:57B4gdera good reason to do many oops commits!
13:17:08JdGordondoh! you've figured out my plans!
13:17:09*pondlife must commit lots of comments :)
13:17:32DMJCthanks
13:17:33B4gderafter all, linus is #1 committer and he does lots of oops ;-P

13:26:29B4gderamiconn: keep track of open source, the people who write it and what we use
13:26:42*pondlife would rather not be tracked.
13:27:02*B4gder temporarily disables pondlife's tracking device
13:27:05amiconnB4gder: Yeah, but what for? I can't imagine anyone needing that...
13:27:20DMJCcopyright stuff?
13:27:23B4gderit's not about "need" to me, but about fun and interesting
13:27:37scorcheisnt that why we do rockbox? =)
13:27:43pondlifeI'm failry sure http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/7402 and http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/7293 are the same issue... jhMikeS might want to confirm as he understands it...
13:28:24*amiconn thinks that rockbox svn is enough for tracking rockbox
13:28:42B4gderamiconn: not if you want to see historic development and comparisons against other projects etc
13:29:00*petur has used ohloh to find a particular commit of somebody...
13:29:07B4gderand if you're interested in your fellow committer's other projects etc
13:29:30Aveamiconn: do you have a suggestion for debugging the current nano playback problem (http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/7510)
13:29:41AveI have failing device and I could test out
13:32:46jhMikeSpondlife: yups
13:32:53*GodEater laughs at Febs ipod forum post
13:33:32FebsThanks, I'll be here at week. Be sure to tip you bartenders and waitress.
13:33:39Febsat/all
13:34:44amiconnAve: I have a suspicion what might go wrong, but I don't have a patch yet
13:34:52jhMikeSpondlife: yeah, probably the same and probably the r12 getting clobbered
13:35:18amiconnThe last comment in the tracker entry suggests that it might be related to the ipod HW revision
13:35:23GodEaterFebs: how's the veal ?
13:35:29amiconnLlorean: What HW rev does your nano have?
13:35:39Febs:)
13:35:51Aveamiconn: "version 1.0" MA099FB as reported by apple-side
13:36:41*GodEater double takes at Llorean's amazing ventriloquist performance
13:36:45amiconnThe ipod HW rev, not the disk firmware
13:36:54amiconn...and not the apple version either
13:37:01Avehow di I find out
13:37:19Aveof course I dont have the device with me now

13:45:26*petur loves autocomplete
13:46:49*pixelma remembers bluebrother's suggestion regarding the default nick provided by the webclient...
13:47:25B4gderwe should make it pick a random stupid name and append the number to it
13:48:09B4gderpossibly prepend the number too
13:48:24GodEaterB4gder: 12lazy_bastard12
13:48:26B4gderfor tab completion friendlyness
13:48:29GodEaterfor example
13:48:34B4gderlike that
13:49:13pixelmahe suggested a nick that would make them want to change it before joining (like "iamanidiot")
13:49:39B4gderI don't think that will work, hence why I suggest multiple such words
13:49:52*petur suggests donttalktome

14:01:43DMJCcouldn't

14:02:19DMJCI mean like editing the menu's placement on the screen
14:02:26DMJCnot just the icons
14:02:41DMJCalso a seperate font for menu and directory listings
14:03:13DMJCand the icons at the top of the menu screen

14:08:54rusty208nope... how do i try it in a sim?
14:08:57scorcheDMJC: well, you said it was "easy enough"...
14:09:10DMJCyeah easy enough to apply a patch to the source and build it :)
14:09:23DMJCplus it gets rid of people who don't know howto do that :)
14:09:32scorchein this context, that is not what is meant by making a patch...
14:09:42DMJCI know heh
14:09:59DMJCmaking a patch isn't the difficult bit it's making the code work in the first place

14:47:31bluebrothermy idea was to save the installed version number for everything, so you can easily check if there's an update
14:47:57bluebrotherincluding themes −− but then we'd need some version string. Could be a date as well
14:48:46scorcheversion would be simple enough...but is this something that needs to be done before it goes live, or something to be added to the list after it goes into svn?
14:49:15bluebrotherwell, I'm not sure −− we could always add things later

14:55:45scorcheobviously, the one outside the zip would be best to use for rbutil, but it would be best to split it off into vars and then show what you need
14:56:06scorchei can always implement a third text file if needed, but this seems like overkill
14:56:12bluebrotherI agree.
14:56:30bluebrotherif we have some key: value format it will be sufficient
14:57:00scorchewould lines of data be sufficient without the key?
14:57:23bluebrotherif we have them defined properly I guess so.
14:57:50scorcheunless you wish to show me how in php to have it deal with that format correctly =)

14:58:36DMJChow long should a rockbox build take?
14:58:46scorchethat depends on a number of things...
14:58:47GodEaterhow long is a piece of string
14:58:56scorchehaha
14:58:58DMJCipod build 2gb ram athlon 64 x2 4400+
14:59:02rasherscorche: list($key, $value) = explode(":", trim($line), 2);?
14:59:06scorchedepends on more things..
14:59:07GodEaterDMJC: OS ?
14:59:10DMJClinux
14:59:11DMJCgentoo
14:59:13bluebrotherin fact, as we open the description txt with the php script anyway I could also put that into the output generated by rbutil_themes.php
14:59:16n1sDMJC: ccache?
14:59:21DMJCnot afaik
14:59:34aliaskShould take 1-2mins
14:59:43scorchebluebrother: we also generate those files by php
14:59:46DMJCok so something is quite broken

15:10:29rasherbluebrother: Really doesn't matter.
15:10:45DMJCLOL
15:10:50DMJCI think I figured it out
15:10:57DMJCnope I didn't
15:10:58DMJCdamn
15:11:06DMJCyeah I didn't have a build directory i do now
15:11:25bluebrotherrasher: sure? We always recommend to use a build directory ...
15:11:50rasherbluebrother: but rockboxdev builds in a separate directory all by itself
15:11:51DMJCyup fixed it
15:11:59DMJCran the configure script from the sourcecode directory
15:12:06rasherbluebrother: ${HOME}/build-rbdev
15:12:07DMJCwhich rewrote the makefile
15:12:12rasherAhah
15:12:14DMJCwhich totally boned the build of course heh
15:12:23bluebrotherrasher: I was referring to building Rockbox, not the compiler
15:12:31DMJCblew it away, svn update and made a target dir
15:12:33B4gderDMJC: you really should pay attention to the instructions...
15:12:43GodEaterHurry up with that ban febs

15:18:04DMJCpatches are unsupported right?

15:18:34DMJCk
15:18:38rasherDMJC: they might be supported by their author
15:18:44scorcheif they are used in a build, then that build is an unsupported build
15:18:44DMJCcool
15:18:49DMJCthat's fine
15:19:00bluebrotherthere is never a guarantee that a patch works.
15:19:10DMJCok
15:19:22DMJCbut they usually do? they usually fail?
15:19:29scorcheFebs: didnt want to keep the porn post around for future enjoyment?
15:19:48B4gderit wasn't fun anyway
15:20:10bluebrotherDMJC: there is no usually
15:20:15DMJCpatches apply to your build directory?
15:20:27FebsI think I hit delete before I realized that it had been moved to the "to be deleted" forum.
15:20:34DMJCO'll figure it out I guess
15:20:42DMJC*I'll
15:20:53bluebrotherif a patch just got posted they usually work. Depending on the patch it might take a long or really short time until it doesn't work anymore
15:20:55scorchewell, while i am up, might as well do the raffle of the shirts and mug
15:21:04GodEateryay
15:21:13bluebrotherwe usually ask patches to get created from the source root
15:21:22bluebrotherso you can apply them with patch -p0
15:22:15DMJCcool
15:22:37bluebrotherunfortunately not all submitted patches follow this. The most do.
15:22:59DMJChmm failed hunks.. bad
15:24:59DMJCone last thing
15:25:09DMJCif a patch fails to apply with failed hunks, don't bother building it?
15:25:38B4gderthat's left for you to decide/work out
15:25:39bluebrotherwell, if it fails you need to fix it. Building most likely will fail, depending on what failed upon patching.
15:28:41Lloreanamiconn: 0x000C0005

17:56:11linuxstbsaratoga: One problem you'll have with seeking (which I forgot to mention earlier..) is that the ASF parser moves data in the audio buffer (when a packet contains multiple payloads, which seems to be a minority of streams). I've since realised that's a bad idea, but haven't got around to fixing it. But afaik, packets are always the same size in bytes.

18:04:49nerochiarolinuxstb: speaking of the asf parser, it seems you added a couple extra fields at the top, that doesn't seem to be "standard" for waveformatext (if there's any standard)
18:06:18linuxstbnerochiaro: That struct should probably be renamed - it started out as something called waveformatext, but is used to store all information read from the asf headers which is later needed by the decoder.
18:06:40nerochiarolinuxstb: it's mostly waveformatext
18:06:51nerochiarolinuxstb: except for the 2 extra fields nad the fixed extra data buffer

18:23:23linuxstbsaratoga: What preglow said - IIUC, if you seek back, and the data hasn't yet been overwritten, the playback engine is smart enough to reuse it.
18:23:43saratogaso the audio buffer is the large (20-30MB) buffer?
18:24:12linuxstbYes. You can tell when that happens - if you seek backwards and the disk doesn't spin up.
18:24:32saratogai didn't realize that was the audio buffer

18:25:11nerochiarosaratoga: it always segfaults when closing asf, for some reason. but aside of that, it works
18:25:23saratogayes it tries to double free something
18:25:38linuxstbsaratoga: No, I know how to fix it, and will have a go now. You shouldn't need to worry about it. We need to make a rule that codecs can't modify the audio buffer though...
18:26:11saratogalinuxstb: what about some of the other issues that have cropped up, like playing ffmpeg
18:26:15saratogas asf files
18:26:21saratogai'd like to look into them
18:26:33nerochiarosaratoga: good
18:26:36linuxstbsaratoga: I haven't looked at those. BTW, do you have a patch for seeking?
18:26:58linuxstbAnd how accurate is it? i.e. after a seek, do you know for certain where in the stream (in terms of samples from the start of the file) you are?
18:27:37nerochiarosaratoga: linuxstb: i have almost finished with the decoder port here, and it would be interesting to have some sample files that use more than 1 payload per packet, for example.
18:27:41saratogalinuxstb: an ugly one http://www.duke.edu/~mgg6/rockbox/wmaseeking.patch
18:30:02saratogalinuxstb: its accurate
18:30:22saratogaat least on my files i couldn't get it to lose track
18:30:33saratogapreglow may have had more luck then i since he got more wma files
18:30:57saratogabut basically i just read the packet lengths off and skip ahead that much, etc until i find the packet i want
18:34:13 Nick idnar_ is now known as idnar (i=mithrand@unaffiliated/idnar)
18:35:33linuxstbsaratoga: Looking at your patch, am I right in thinking you just read (forwards or backwards) through the whole file, parsing the packet headers as you go?
18:37:57preglowyes

18:38:12preglowonly forwards
18:38:15preglowafaik
18:39:21linuxstbAh yes, a "TODO" exists for backwards...
18:39:54preglowseveral ways to seek backwards exists, i think
18:40:16preglowyou could just seek back to the start, then seek forwards, or step backwards, but i don't know how that sits with the playback engine
18:40:26linuxstbIIUC, all the asf packet headers contain timestamps, so it should be possible to seek properly - i.e. estimate the target packet based on average bitrate, then adjust.
18:40:44linuxstb(all packets are a fixed size in bytes, so seeking to packet N is trivial).
18:40:44preglowthat would be optimal
18:40:48preglowbut would need a resync
18:41:09linuxstbWhat do you mean by resync?
18:42:03preglowwell, if you just seek blindly around based on avg bitrate, you're gonna need to resync to a packed boundary before looking for data
18:42:10preglowpacket
18:43:05Nico_Plinuxstb: "We need to make a rule that codecs can't modify the audio buffer though": as long as the codecs only modifiy the parts of the buffer where the compressed audio is stored, it's OK, isn't it ?
18:43:49linuxstbNico_P: Not if the user then seeks backwards. It's desirable to not have to re-read that data from disk if it hasn't been overwritten by later tracks.
18:44:12linuxstbpreglow: All ASF packets are a fixed size in bytes, so we can seek directly to a packet boundary.

18:52:33pixelmabluebrother: do I remember correctly that the font used in the svg was one of the palatino font family?
18:53:37preglowlinuxstb: yeah, they're a fixed size, but that doesn't help you far when you're skipping several of them, unless vbr is really uncommon
18:53:55preglowanyway, i don't think walking all of them is that bad
18:53:59preglowisn't that what ogg does anyway?
18:56:20linuxstbpreglow: I would be very surprised if any codec framwalked the file to seek - it wouldn't be good when you're seeking in a long file (larger than the buffer).
18:57:39 Quit shriphani ("Lost terminal")
18:57:48preglowindeed not
18:58:24linuxstbpreglow: You know the following about ASF files: 1) The size of the packets (always a fixed number of bytes); 2) The filesize of the file, and hence the number of packets in the file; 3) The duration of the file in ms. So assuming we can work out how to interpret the timestamps in the packet headers, seeking should work by calculating the target packet #, seeking to it, (making sure we are at a packet boundary - only an issue for corrupt
18:58:24linuxstbed files), and then adjust.
18:59:35preglowbut yeah, i'll be surprised if we don't need some kind of resync
18:59:39preglowshouldn't be a big deal anyway
18:59:45preglowassuming it's documented...
18:59:50linuxstbBut why should you (if the stream isn't corrupt) ?
19:00
19:00:34preglowwell, unless i've misunderstood something, you'll need to when you estimate your seek position and hit between packets thanks to vbr
19:00:54linuxstbpackets are always a fixed size in bytes.
19:01:03linuxstbIt's the number of samples they contain that varies.
19:01:52preglowahhh
19:01:58preglowthat'll simplify stuff
19:02:10preglowis that a common arrangement elsewhere?
19:02:34linuxstbI don't think so.
19:02:38preglowno, me neither
19:02:51linuxstbMost formats are fixed in terms of samples, and hence variable in terms of bytes.
19:03:53preglowyeah, or like mp3, fixed in both

21:34:50nerochiarosaratoga5: well, given that the asf parser in your program is libasf too, the answer is "yes" :)
21:35:01amiconntucoz: Newer epstopdf versions want to use 'gswin32c' under cygwin, but the correct name is just 'gs' like under *nix
21:35:28pixelmatucoz: amiconn helped me and can probably explain that better - maybe I should document that somehow in the wiki? Worth it?
21:35:30amiconnSo the line that sets the binary name for cygwin needs to be commented out in newer epstopdf versions
21:36:11tucozpixelma, why not? like a note for cygwin users. Just to get it written down somewhere.
21:36:36amiconnCygwin is really in need of updating of some packages
21:36:45amiconnThe packaged epstopdf is from 2001....
21:37:02tucozamiconn, the same is mine for ubuntu
21:37:18tucozEPSTOPDF 2.7, 2001/03/05
21:37:39Learlinuxstb: Any idea what the ASF parser is reading as bitrate? Doesn't seem to be bitrate at least...
21:38:02saratoga5Lear: isn't it bits/sample?
21:38:07amiconntucoz: And that one has autorotate. That 'feature' was removed in 2004
21:38:12saratoga5i know thats what the wma decoder uses
21:38:28LearNo, that comes later.
21:38:32pixelmatucoz: it's just that I don't know if the average cygwin user is able to get hands on a newer epstopdf (I got one from amiconn's linux box)
21:38:38Lear(After blockalign.)
21:38:39linuxstbLear: I think it's bytes/second.
21:38:43amiconnDebian unstable has epstopdf from 2.9.5gw from 2006
21:39:14linuxstbLear: Hence the "bitrate *=8;" line.
21:39:32tucozamiconn, weird. i converted lots of pixelma's svg's, and they were not autorotated in any way. maybe it only rotates them under certain conditions
21:39:58LearTried a parser of my own (based on asf.c), that returns 64 kbps, but Foobar (and Explorer) says 40 kbps...
21:40:06LearThere's a separate bitrate object, it seems.
21:40:07peturBagder: the build page was acting up a bit: after it was 3 minutes over time, it started reloading the page again and again
21:40:11tucozpixelma, i see.
21:40:33pixelmatucoz: probably when the width > height
21:40:43pixelmawhich was the case here
21:41:07tucozbut e.g. the rockbox logo worked fine
21:41:22pixelmahmm... very weird then
21:41:37amiconnpixelma: Just attach it to the wiki page. It's bsd licensed afaics
21:41:51linuxstbLear: That's odd... Presumably Rockbox displays 64kbps for that file?
21:42:03tucozyes. maybe it is some windows specific problem. i see there are some windows checks in the source for epstopdf
21:42:30 Join bdgraue [0] (n=bdgraue@host-091-096-252-080.ewe-ip-backbone.de)
21:43:04amiconntucoz: The win32 checks don't trigger on cygwin
21:43:15amiconnThe cygwin checks do, however
21:43:17LearI'll try to get a look. It is only 1 sec long; maybe that's the problem, the overhead is large, and asf.c includes the overhead, whereas Foobar does not.
21:43:50nerochiarosaratoga5: that's how the decoded file sounds here: http://www.divshare.com/download/1575461-9cb
21:44:07linuxstbLear: What do you mean by overhead? You mean it calculates the bitrate based on filesize and file duration, rather than reading it from the header?
21:44:15LearAnd MP3Tag says 46. Figures.
21:44:38LearOverhead, as in tag headers and whatnot, compared to actual audio data.
21:45:46pixelmaamiconn, tucoz: I will update the wiki later, first I want to know if a 2nd gen Ipod manual will have the drawing now (and how it'll look) and then commit :)
21:46:33tucozcool. look forward to seing that
21:46:38tucozseeing
21:46:44pixelmatucoz: do I need to enable something else?
21:47:35tucoziirc, it's just eps->pdf and it should be fine
21:47:36amiconnpetur: I thought some more about the events which need a reply.
21:47:57pixelmaI'll just try
21:48:22amiconnSince there are a few, not just one, but not may either, what do you think about putting a function to register for a certain event into the respective module that processes the replies?
21:48:47tucozpixelma, just name it like ipod2g-front.pdf
21:49:23tucozand ipod2g-front.png (or whatever the "environment" variable for ipod2g is)
21:49:24amiconnE.g. for usb, usb.c would have a function usb_register_reply(bool enable), which makes the usb module increment or decrement a counter how many replies to expect
21:49:58peturso no more broadcasting
21:49:59amiconnEach thread that needs to react and reply would call that function immediately after creating its queue
21:50:12pixelmatucoz: I thought it should be named "ipod1g2g"
21:50:14amiconnNo, the events would still be broadcast to all public queues
21:50:37tucozpixelma, then that is probably right.
21:50:40peturah right
21:50:43 Join Wofl_ [0] (n=nils@ip68-97-21-133.ok.ok.cox.net)
21:50:49amiconnBut threads with a public queue which don't need to do something special wouldn't register. They would still receive the event, but not need to reply
21:51:55saratoga5nerochiaro: that file is just static
21:51:58amiconnE.g. the backlight thread needs to register for power events (SYS_POWEROFF/SYS_SUSPEND/SYS_WAKEUP), but not usb
21:52:09 Join homielowe [0] (n=chatzill@207.6.87.171)
21:52:23petursounds like a way to do it...
21:52:28amiconnIt could still react to usb if wanted and e.g. make the backlight light up like if a button was pressed
21:52:46 Quit miepchen^schlaf ("Verlassend")
21:53:12homielowedionoea: around?
21:53:18amiconnThe question how to handle things in ata.c remains though...
21:53:46pixelmatucoz: yes, everything's in place now :)
21:54:06nerochiarosaratoga5: something went wrong with the upload then, it definitely plays here
21:54:08peturamiconn: but the threads involved will need carefull coding to get the registering and notifying in line. Could turn out ugly if many threads need this code
21:54:29peturmaybe something can be put in the default handler?
21:54:46amiconnThe default handler is for the main thread only
21:55:35amiconnEach thread that does need to reply to such events needs 2 additional lines of code (one for registering one for deregistering)
21:56:17peturwell if the registering is per module, you'd need a call per module, right?
21:56:22nerochiarosaratoga5: actually, it's probably something either with your download or with the player you use. i downloaded it here again and it plays
21:56:28nerochiarosaratoga5: definitely not static
21:56:33amiconnIn turn, all threads which don't need special handling can have two case:s from their switch removed
21:57:51amiconnpetur: It's per public queue, and one thread never has more than one queue. It might also have none, or one that isn't public
21:58:42amiconnRight now there are 16 threads (there can't be any target where all of them are present) with public queues
21:58:58amiconnAll of them have to reply to USB events in the svn version
21:59:00***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
21:59:01peturwell you would have to register and notify both usb and powermanagement or am I missing something
21:59:13amiconnHowever, most of them just say 'got it, thanks', and go on
21:59:16GodEater_linuxstb: you feeling generous enough to point this person at some info on how to set up OSX to develop with properly? Even if the stuff is already installed? http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=12095.msg91575#msg91575
21:59:29petur(in case both are needed of course)
21:59:44amiconnThese threads would neither have to register nor handle them anymore
22:00
22:00:13amiconnOnly those threads which really need to do some housekeeping would need to register

22:01:48amiconnIf you plug usb and nothing was voiced before, the voice thread tries to load mpa.codec... after the ata thread released ata

22:03:45amiconnThe ata thread can't release the disk before other threads which need the disk for their housekeeping are done
22:04:19amiconnRight now I have no real idea how to handle this
22:05:17peturusb knows when all threads are notified?
22:05:30 Join robin_0800 [0] (n=robin080@81.98.156.133)
22:05:35amiconnI.e. the ata thread is special. It is not the event initiator (that's either the usb thread, or in future also the power management thread), but it needs to know when all others are ready
22:05:36*petur doesn't know how this internal part works
22:06:01peturamiconn: usb/power could call ata?
22:06:34amiconnWhen the usb thread detects a connection, it broadcasts SYS_USB_CONNECTED. queue_broadcast() returns the number of queues it posted to
22:07:02amiconnThen the USB thread sits and waits for (n-1) replies to come in before enabling the usb bridge
22:07:23amiconnSame thing on disconnect, just reverse
22:07:48amiconn...and that the usb thread only expects as many disconnect acks as it got connect acks before
22:07:59 Join BigMac [0] (n=BigMac@c-71-234-95-131.hsd1.ct.comcast.net)
22:08:33GodEater_why not just get the usb thread to only message ata
22:08:38peturso usb can call ata when all replies are in, no?
22:08:39amiconnHmm, that also means disconnect might have a similar problem. ATA must be back in business before all others do
22:08:44GodEater_and let ata issue the SYS_USB_CONNECTED
22:08:50GodEater_and wait for the n-1 replies
22:08:51GodEater_?
22:09:19GodEater_and then tell usb it's done ?
22:09:39amiconnhmmm
22:09:43GodEater_only I assume it would be n-2 replies
22:10:05*GodEater_ caveats this may be completely naive
22:10:13GodEater_it's just what I thought of
22:10:25amiconnThe n would change with the registration system
22:10:50*amiconn needs to think this over. It might be the solution :)
22:11:00GodEater_cool
22:12:13amiconnThis could perhaps be implemented by making the ata queue private, and provide hook functions to post to it
22:12:46amiconnThe USB would first broadcast SYS_USB_CONNECTED, collect the replies, the post privately to ata, and when that replied as well finally enable usb
22:12:51 Quit Wofl_ (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
22:13:25amiconnAnd the reverse on disconnect: disable usb, post privately to ata, wait for reply, then broadcast, and wait for the others to reply
22:13:47peturyup
22:13:50GodEater_are there any situations where ata has to be aware of other global events
22:13:53GodEater_?
22:14:36amiconnThe same wiould then be needed for powermgmt
22:14:51peturor add functions to ata to let usb control it?
22:15:23GodEater_that would require less fundamental changes as I understand it yes ?
22:15:56GodEater_but perhaps not the ideal solution

22:36:23pixelmarasher: maybe you are right

23:55:04rasherHrm, genlang -u is a bit picky about whitespace, it seems
23:55:15rasherit doesn't think " *: none" is the same as " *: none"

23:55:42rasherAt least, I'm pretty sure that's what it's telling me
23:55:51Bagderbut yeah, I think that's because it simply compares two strings basically
