00:30:46amiconnAh that. No I don't have the necessary adapter
00:31:46jhMikeSis the FM chip bit-banged i2c and not available to the regular i2c driver on h10?
00:32:07amiconnDon't ask me...
00:33:15peturhmmm the usb stack sends some weird codes back for identification (FFFF, 0001)

00:34:24*petur thought it was already using interrupts
00:34:29amiconnFM isn't supported on H10 yet. Iirc barrywardell tried but didn't succeed
00:34:48peturand I managed to get one without FM :(
00:34:55jhMikeSamiconn: I thought it was TEA5767
00:34:59amiconnYes it is
00:35:23amiconnBut FM support on H10 is really lowpri compared to many other things on my todo
00:35:44amiconnWhat good is FM support if the battery drains in <4 hours?
00:35:49jhMikeSpetur: it's just calling usb_interrupt during the tick all the time
00:36:04peturuh...
00:36:06jhMikeSamiconn: so it can drain in 5? :P
00:36:59jhMikeSe200 is such a trouble-free target compared to others it seems. can play it all day long.
00:37:14amiconnYOu also don't get full runtime afaik
00:37:24amiconnI wouldn't call that trouble free
00:37:57jhMikeSI've never done a test but I do run high bitrate audio and have never gotten even to 50% batt

00:51:43amiconnyes
00:51:49rasherNice
00:51:55amiconnwavtrim is a bit difficult because of the path
00:52:14amiconnAnd that shouldn't be reevaluated every time by using cygpath
00:52:54rasherI have no idea why cygpath is even used
00:53:00rasherA relative path should be fine
00:53:12amiconn/ −−> \
00:53:20rasherIs that necessary?
00:53:23amiconnyes
00:53:35rasherstill, cygpath shouldn't be needed?
00:53:51amiconnI think it is needed
00:54:09DerPapstdoesn't ..\..\bla work in windoes too?
00:54:29amiconnYes, but not when source & build dir are on different drives
00:54:38DerPapstah
00:54:48amiconn...and that is possible when using /cygdrive/<letter>
00:55:37amiconnBut since init_tts() needs to use cygpath anyway, it can as well store the tools path in the returned array ref
00:56:54 Quit Siltaar (Remote closed the connection)
00:57:04amiconnwavtrim is mostly defunct for sapi anyway atm, because of the synchronisation issue

01:04:38amiconnThe unlink($wav); also suffers from the synchronisation problem
01:05:03jhMikeSpetur: It seems that using GPIO interrupts keeps missing interrupts but an early USB patch I put the GPIO IRQ stuff together on seemed to be getting all of them. I don't know what changed.

01:24:24jhMikeSgigabeat hits millions
01:24:57amiconnWell, disk spinup takes a while....
01:26:09jhMikeSI can adapt something simple if completion interrupts are possible there and let things be calm.
01:26:52jhMikeSother than buffering it's pretty peaceful at around 20 switch_threads / sec there
01:29:47amiconnWhy? Do we have a performance problem there? KISS...

01:50:41larsemilis it normal that rockbox is using alot more power the applefirmware on a ipod 4th gen? my battery is getting empty after maybe 2 hours of listening instead of 12-18...
01:51:08Nimdaeyes
01:51:33Nimdaewell
01:51:35pixelmabut that amount is surprising - did you measure lately?
01:51:36Nimdaeit's not normal
01:52:04Nimdaebut battery consumption is higher due to less optimized use of the hardware
01:52:21Nimdaei get about 6 or so hours out of mine though
01:52:39Nimdaehow old is the ipod?
01:52:52amiconngah

01:55:36Nimdaewell, you can continue from there in case someone knows, but you've already lost me ;)
01:56:04amiconnHowever, when I try to use that reference in print(), perl complains that I am using a string where I shouldn't
01:57:17Nimdaehmmm...
01:57:32amiconnI.e. sub myfunc { my $ret = *FH; return $ret }; $fh = myfunc(); print($fh, "Blah"); works, but
01:58:54amiconnsub myfunc { my @ret = (*FH, "someother"); my $ret = \@ret; return $ret }; $arr = myfunc(); prinf($$arr[0] "Blah"); doesn't
02:00
02:02:33Nimdae$arr = myfunc(); <−− is $arr defined as an array elsewhere?
02:02:45amiconnNo, it's an array reference
02:02:53amiconnLooks like I need curly braces
02:03:12Nimdaeoh, i see, i missed the $$arr[0]
02:03:17amiconnprint({$$arr[0]} "Blah"); seems to do the trick
02:03:42Nimdaewhat about ${$arr[0]}? this is what i would use in tcl
02:03:55amiconnI tried that
02:04:00Nimdaehmm

03:11:38Soaplarsemil: I just realized that I had misread your statement. I thought you had said you don't get _to_ the Apple logo. Now that I look again I see that you said you don't get _through_ the Apple logo. Not knowing what model iPod you have, I am not sure which instructions to give you, but assuming it is an iPod Video (playing the odds here) you should try to boot into disk mode by doing a hard reset with "Menu"+"Select" and, as soon as the iPod boots,
03:11:38Soapswitch to "Select"+"Play". This should allow you to put mount your iPod in your OS of choice so that you can run a disk checking program on it.

03:22:50RudManheh - that's why all themes should have a null backdrop line in their cfg if they don't set one

09:27:51GodEaterhachi: its' in the wiki though
09:28:06linuxstbhachi: That's because using mkfs is not a normal part of a Rockbox install. It's mentioned here though - http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IpodConversionToFAT32
09:28:08peturHi Jd
09:28:10hachiright... wiki, where does it say in the docs to read the wiki
09:28:12GodEaterhachi: we don't cover formatting your ipod in the manual - it's assumed your fat32 partition is good
09:28:33GodEaterhachi: it doesn't say in the docs to read the wiki, because most people don't need to format their ipods
09:28:43GodEaterhachi: because most people don't run ipodlinux
09:29:00linuxstbIn fact, it's not mentioned there...
09:29:16linuxstbBut it tells you to use mtools to format a 5.5g.

09:29:38linuxstbhachi: You weren't - it's a problem with your IPL install (if that is indeed the issue here).

09:30:05notgodhachi: don't get upset −− it's free! contribute. suggest. but don't get mad. ;)

09:40:23linuxstbhachi: There is nothing obviously wrong with the partiton table, so that suggests that it's how the FAT32 partition has been formatted.
09:40:32scorcheJdGordon: official builds will work on any build
09:41:12JdGordon... then lots of themes are currently misplaced?

09:51:13linuxstbBut how can, for example, the uploader license the work under the CC if we don't know who the (C) holder is?
09:53:03GodEaterthe uploader becomes responsible for the license I would imagine
09:53:04scorcheif we are given notice of an infringement, we will act, but part of the agreement they go through says "that you have the right to put this work under this license"

10:00:49linuxstbThe concept of having themes with clear (C) ownership and licensing terms. What other reasons were there?
10:01:29scorcheone of which was to take care of copyrighted material issue...this does that, but in a different way than you might imagine (us being granted harbour rather than us constantly patrolling)
10:02:24scorcheother reasons were getting rid of the mess-like-state of the wiki, being easier to find and submit themes (no more "how do i edit the wiki?"), integration with rbutil that wouldnt be possible with the wiki, etc
10:04:09JdGordonscorche: btw, there is a bug on the themes site with the hover text on the target pics

10:45:07linuxstbscorche: My point is that the CC checkbox is pointless. A third-party can't comply with that license because they can't attribute the material to anyone. And speaking of attribution, I'm not familiar with the CC, but it states that "you must attribute work in the manner specified by the author". We don't give the authors the ability to specify that - or state a generic attribution method.
10:45:26linuxstbSo I guess I'm saying we should either remove the CC checkbox, or implement it more thoroughly.

11:04:13linuxstbscorche: Thinking through an example, if I wanted to take a theme uploaded to rockbox-themes.org, modify it, and then upload it again to rockbox-themes.org, the current site doesn't a) State what attribution I am required to make; b) Give me the ability to provide attribution to the original author(s); c) Give me the ability to state how I want my work to be attributed.
11:04:18hachiwell, that was lovely... enabled the db in rockbox, fool around a bit... hook ipod up to mac, mac acts like the drive has just been formatted
11:04:41hachiall the mp3s I loaded on in the last few minutes, the ipodload.conf file, .rockbox, all gone
11:04:45hachiis this a common occurance?
11:04:49linuxstbNo
11:04:56linuxstbDid you unmount it cleanly?
11:05:06hachiit seemed like iTunes did it
11:05:21hachiI couldn't, I last had it plugged into a linux box
11:05:28hachithose things don't have an 'eject usb' command
11:05:42hachiI umounted, but that doesn't mean the buffers flushed
11:06:09linuxstbYes it does, and there is also a separate "eject" command.
11:06:23hachieject doesn't apply to usb port ejection
11:06:38hachithere isn't one in linux, best you can do is remove the usb modules from the running kernel
11:06:45scorchelinuxstb: how about if we declared the "default" attribution style (in the description) in the guidelines, and as for stating how you wish it to be attributed, that can go in a text file in the zip if they wish to change it from the "default"

11:07:58hachiregardless, this would be the first time in like 10 years that an improperly unmounted device has caused the partition to wipe
11:08:37hachialso, since reformatting to the rockbox specs, plugging it into my mac seems to take a good 20-30 seconds of 100% read before it mounts the device
11:09:14linuxstbhachi: OK, it was just a simple question! And yes, my Mac is also extremely slow when mounting a FAT32 formatted ipod. I've yet to discover a solution.
11:10:14GodEaterthere bloody is an eject command in linux, and it definitely applies to the usb ports
11:10:34hachiread the manpage, it's for ejecting things like cdrom drives, zip drives, etc.
11:10:42hachiit doesn't disconnect the usb port and power it down
11:11:16hachiwhich is a perfectly valid operation, and is what windows does when you 'eject' a usb mounted device

11:13:37B4gderfeel free to point finger
11:13:42B4gder:-)
11:13:49GodEaterhachi: then the manpage you're reading is wrong. An ipod is NOT marked as safe to disconnect unless you've run the eject command. Please don't act like you're an authority on the subject as you're clearly not.
11:13:54Nico_Pwe'll soon have to create "planet rockbox" :)
11:14:02B4gder:-)
11:14:08hachiGodEater: I just read the source to eject like... SATURDAY
11:14:25hachiI was hacking on the ioctl for linux cdroms at the time
11:14:25scorcheB4gder: now you have to change all plaintext on your site to fancy stylized images and implement an enormous amount of ajax into your site =P
11:14:52hachithe manpage says nothing about eject for usb devices, it only applies to block devices
11:15:35linuxstbscorche: Just thinking about the principles for now (not how the site will work), I think we would want someone who uploads a theme based on another theme to at the very least state the name(s) of any other themes it is based on.
11:15:36hachiyou can eject block devices, cdrom drives and the like
11:15:44hachiyou can't eject usb ports with it
11:15:49GodEateryes.you.can.
11:15:57hachigive an example of usage
11:16:27scorchelinuxstb: yes...that would be the "default" attribution, is to state that in the description
11:16:36GodEatereject /dev/sdb where sdb is your ipod device. I use it on a daily basis.
11:16:38linuxstbscorche: Exactly.
11:16:43hachisdb is a block device
11:16:46hachinot a usb port
11:16:57hachiit doesn't power down the usb port, you can get a voltmeter and confirm this fact
11:17:22bluebrotherpondlife: strange −− I don't get this. Are you on windows?
11:17:22Nico_Phachi: is it really necessary to power down the usb ?
11:17:53Nico_Phachi: I've been using eject <themountpoint> for a long time and never had a single problem
11:18:00GodEaterI'm not interested in the usb port power - I'm interested in whether your ipod is marked as safe to disconnect or not. and let me see - which one of us has the non-functional ipod. Oh that's right. You.

11:21:41 Quit desowin ("use linux")
11:21:50scorchewell, i believe the reasoning for not going that route is the lack of desire to blog by many devs

11:23:26LinusNhow stable is the new qt rbutil, and would it be possible to build a mac version asap?
11:23:38Nico_Pbluebrother: that's what I was suggesting

11:51:23linuxstb"Once notice is given to the service provider, or in circumstances where the service provider discovers the infringing material itself, it is required to expeditiously remove, or disable access to, the material."
11:52:20linuxstbi.e. if we discover something is infringing, we're obligated to remove it. So I would read that as saying that we're still free to remove anything we notice as infringing.
11:52:21scorcheno...we immediately dismiss them as they are not the copyright owner and did not follow the correct format (if we dont investigate if it is truely infringing, we dont have knowledge that it is)

11:59:12scorchelinuxstb: so we should be personally investigating each image that looks like it might be copyrighted to make sure they dont have permission and/or are the author, thereby giving us liability of ANY infringement of the site?
11:59:44Lloreanscorche: See my above statement. We as a site don't investigate each image, but we investigate all reports.
11:59:58LloreanWouldn't that allow safe harbor to be preserved?
12:00
12:00:40scorcheyes...reports are a different story if they are filed in the correct manner (simply giving all information and not saying "uh...xxx looks like it could be infringing")
12:01:02LloreanWhat's all the correct information?
12:01:11Llorean"X copyrght is held by Fox"?

12:01:44delYsidI've added another backend (Cepstral swift) to the voice generation stuff. How do I submit the patch such that it gets into SVN?
12:01:56scorchealthough, i would accept a third party report as something to be investigated
12:02:03linuxstbscorche: I'm just saying that if any of us spot any obvious copyright violations we should take the theme down.
12:02:28*JdGordon agrees
12:02:36Lloreanlinuxstb: And I'm agreeing very strongly.
12:03:02pixelmadelYsid: usual procedure is posting it to the patch tracker and nagging devs (here) ;)
12:03:02scorchelinuxstb: if you report it as a user, then fine...but as a provider, we cannot be wondering whether xxxx mgith be infringing or not
12:03:07JdGordonbut doesnt that imply that we are checking the images of every submission?
12:03:07Lloreanscorche: I think we should just say that "if anyone reports an apparent copyright violation you may be asked to show you have the appropriate copyrights for your WPS before it is returned to the index"
12:03:09linuxstbscorche: That's why I used the SImpsons as an example - you can't get any more obvious than that.
12:03:30Lloreanscorche: Then anyone who spots an obvious one can take it down and ask for more information without us saying we investigate (and accept liability) for everything posted.
12:03:37scorcheJdGordon: yes it does, which is why it is very important to ahve the user/provider separation
12:04:25JdGordonso, in that case. shouldnt the submissions be checked by a script so we cant say we purposly let something obviously infringing through.
12:04:27linuxstbscorche: I have no problem with user/provider separation. But you seemed to be saying that if a user reported a Simpsons theme you would ignore that report?
12:05:00LloreanJdGordon: We want scripts anyway, but nobody's written them yet.
12:05:26scorchelinuxstb: i said a few lines up that i would take a third party report as something to be investigated provided it includes all pertinent information
12:06:41linuxstbscorche: Then I think we're all agreeing again.
12:06:53JdGordon... we cant have that!
12:06:55scorche"investigation" as i refer to it would include us asking the author if he has the permission of the author and/or if he made the image himself and didnt use copyrighted works
12:08:14scorchedepending on if he linked us to an identical image or not

13:05:15pneumaticif i dont want it anymore do i just run the itunes ipod factory defaults function
13:05:39scorchethere are uninstallation procedures in the manual
13:06:14preglowwhat are your feelings on trading precision off for speed by default in codecs?
13:06:31scorchethat will remove rockbox, but is akin to killing a mosquito with a cannon
13:07:02preglowlinuxstb: did you get anywhere else with the i2s stuff yesterday, btw?
13:07:26linuxstbpreglow: I didn't try anything. But reading the logs, didn't amiconn get somewhere?
13:07:36Lloreanpreglow: In general?
13:08:17 Join x1jmp [0] (n=x1jmp@p57B09E5C.dip0.t-ipconnect.de)
13:08:27preglowLlorean: well, yeah, i'm looking at the musepack patch here that trades some precision for speed on arm
13:08:35preglowLlorean: i doubt people can hear a difference, though
13:08:58LloreanYeah, if people can't here the difference (or are unlikely to without a special setup) I don't really see it as "bad
13:09:07preglowi'm really not all that keen on having the codecs produce different output on different targets, but i also don't want to say no to better battery life
13:09:18LloreanThough I'd prefer it only be done in situations where there's a real gain (targets where music skips with peakmeters or while in plugins) rather than as a general policy.
13:09:24linuxstbpreglow: Would it actually have a noticable affect on battery life?
13:09:35preglowlinuxstb: i'm not at all sure, i don't see why not, if we've done our stuff properly
13:09:43LloreanYou'd need a pretty good boost reduction to gain measurable battery life on iPods right now
13:09:53preglowless time spent in decoding -> fewer cycles spent -> more battery
13:10:09delYsidpreglow: I'd prefer an option, my ears are pretty good and I'd like to decide for myself if I want to trade battery life for quality.
13:10:13linuxstbpreglow: Sure, but I think I would like to see the results of an actual runtime test.
13:10:17linuxstb^tests
13:10:21LloreanBeing boosted vs unboosted only makes something like a 30% difference in battery drain if I remember the measurements.
13:10:23LloreanMaybe less
13:10:38LloreanSo a 5% boost reduction is only going to get us something like a 1.5% increase in battery life?
13:11:03LloreanActually I think those numbers were for boost/unboost on the sansa.
13:11:43LloreandelYsid: "my ears are pretty good" doesn't mean you'll be able to hear it, a lot of time loss of precision is below the level the cheap portable DACs can output reliably anyway.
13:11:47preglowi really can't be bothered to do any runtime tests
13:11:58preglowso i guess i'll just commit the patch with the speed opt disabled for now
13:12:07amiconnLlorean: That's not entirely true. Regardless of whether unused functional units in the PP are disabled or enabled, it shows a pretty linear MHz->power consumption dependency
13:12:28preglowLlorean: afaik, the loss of precision here is on the order of the last bit
13:12:38preglowi'd be surprised if anyone could hear that
13:12:43Lloreanpreglow: Do we know the boost% gain?
13:12:46amiconnAnd the PP is the next biggest power sucker after the backlight
13:12:59preglowi'll check it out
13:13:12amiconn(*especially* with the unused functional units enabled)
13:13:13Lloreanamiconn: Wouldn't a 3:1 ratio between boost% reduction and battery life increase be "linear"?
13:13:51amiconnThe mapping isn't linear. You need to calculate the effective MHz from the boost percentage
13:14:11LloreanYeah
13:14:25amiconnSo if you have 50% boost on ipod, the effective clock is 55MHz
13:14:36LloreanAh, yes, because unboost isn't 0
13:14:37preglowargh, the bloody usb hang
13:15:34LloreanStill, my point was more or less "small boost gains aren't going to get a significant battery life increase, so if there is a chance they'll be audible and it's in a codec that already is unlikely to skip, I'm generally against it"
13:16:05LloreanBut least significant bit type stuff isn't a big deal, most people have already lost that somewhere anyway
13:16:42preglowargh, the codec linker bug :/
13:18:34 Quit pneumatic ("CGI:IRC")
13:18:47LloreanI mean people do expect Rockbox to "improve" sound quality, so we don't need to hand them too many placebos. ;)
13:20:04preglowboost ratio goes from 253.37% -> 340.59% for a 140 kbps file
13:20:28LloreanThat's a pretty big improvement
13:20:30*Llorean votes for it.
13:20:44linuxstbpreglow: Would that be the kind of thing to make a global setting? i.e. to specify speed vs accuracy. Would it be even be feasible to make it a run-time setting?
13:21:00preglowlinuxstb: sure, don't see why not, it's just a question of code structure
13:21:04Lloreanlinuxstb: Maybe a #AUDIOPHILE define while building?
13:21:05LloreanHeh
13:21:12preglowbut i don't know whether we'd want it or not
13:21:26preglowit's hard to say where to stop trading off accuracy
13:21:48preglowanyway, then, i'll be commiting this, with a big fat message that arm targets now have somewhat less accuracy
13:21:55amiconnWell, several other codecs already sacrifice the lsb
13:21:55linuxstbAgain, I think it comes down to what the real-life runtime difference would be.
13:21:56preglowand encourage people to report if they can hear a difference
13:22:00preglowamiconn: many
13:22:51Lloreanlinuxstb: I think going from 2.5x to 3.4x realtime is probably going to make a measurable difference. At the very least it'll make it easier to use the EQ and other things.
13:23:53preglowi haven't got a chance in hell to tell the difference here, that's for sure
13:24:14linuxstbLlorean: Isn't 2.5% already enough for the EQ?
13:24:27*linuxstb seems to recall having this discussion months ago...
13:24:28preglowsure
13:25:11Lloreanlinuxstb: It's enough, I think. But then someone wants to play jewels.
13:25:56preglowi'll have a chat with the musepack people to see if they're interested in adapting some of this patch too
13:26:03preglowthere are actualy accuracy improvements in it as well
13:26:42LloreanI think as long as it's unlikely people will hear it, it's probably fine.
13:28:09preglowwe'll soon find out if they do
13:28:35linuxstbpreglow: I think I agree that in this case, go for speed... As you say, we can always revert to high accuracy if there's a strong demand.
13:28:59preglowit's worth finding out what people think about the issue anyway
13:29:00linuxstbWhat was the musepack developer's view on it?
13:29:07preglowi'm sure someone (at least from the musepack dev camp) will holler
13:29:17preglowthey're sceptical, but they're a weird bunch anyway ;)
13:29:22preglowSeed: hiya
13:29:45preglowi'm gonna have a chat with them about adapting parts of the patch soon anyway

13:39:15jeegerBut judgement on the endless rebooting with idle poweroff is still out, right? The bug report was a bit inconclusive.
13:39:40jeegerA solution would be to simply switch off idle poweroff when on some sort of wall power.
13:40:07linuxstbIIUC, idle poweroff shouldn't happen when the device is charging. Maybe the 5g isn't correctly detecting charging.
13:40:15jeegerAh

14:10:23linuxstbIIUC, "usb_state" is only being set to USB_POWERED if the user is holding the "charge" button whilst inserting USB.
14:11:22jeegerif((button_status() & ~USBPOWER_BTN_IGNORE) == USBPOWER_BUTTON)
14:11:27jeegerThis looks like it.
14:11:32jeegerBut what is the charge button?
14:11:54jeegeron an ipod
14:11:55linuxstbIt's a button you can hold when attaching your device to a computer via USB so that it charges, rather than enters disk mode.
14:12:02linuxstbIt's MENU on the ipods.
14:12:12 Quit atsea- (Remote closed the connection)
14:12:13jeegerAh
14:12:28jeegerSo I should get charging mode if I hold menu when connecting the iPod. I'll try that out.
14:12:59linuxstbI would expect that to only work when connecting to a computer, not to a charger.
14:13:13jeegerI tried it with the computer, it works.
14:13:14linuxstbWhen you connect to a charger, a USB connection isn't detected.
14:13:49jeegerNope, just works for a short time. The iPod reboots and enters disk mode
14:14:33linuxstbYes, that's another reported bug... You may need to hold MENU for a few (maybe 10 or more) seconds.
14:15:41jeegerah
14:16:01linuxstbMaybe the computer retries the connection, and that triggers a positive detection...

15:05:44JdGordonrec screen should get wps-ified :)
15:05:50peturyups
15:05:55peturWRS
15:06:21rasherThe _SYSFONT_ strings also inflate the voice files by quite a bit
15:06:31peturbut why change now if viewports are coming (and have another code change)
15:06:48linuxstbHow would viewports help?
15:06:50*JdGordon wonders how much prodding viewports is going to take...
15:07:11peturnot as much help as change the way things can be done
15:07:19amiconnIt doesn't have to do with prodding, but with limited coding time and priorities
15:07:51peturamiconn: apply for GSoC next year ;)
15:07:53*JdGordon once again offers his coding time if someone writes up the way they rekon it should work
15:07:55amiconnI know viewports are important, but low-level things working properly even more
15:08:02markunjhMikeS: what do you think about fs#7487?
15:08:25amiconnpetur: (1) I'm not a student, so that's probably impossible. (2) I won't register with google. period.
15:08:40JdGordonNico_P: how simple would getting the wps token handling code working with the rec/fm screen be?
15:08:55markunamiconn: I would also prefer better battery life for ipods than viewports (even if I don't have an ipod)
15:09:31*petur is a happy google user as long as they offer free bandwidth and storage :)
15:09:50*JdGordon agrees with petur
15:11:37markunamiconn: yes, come over to the dark side :)
15:11:43Nico_PJdGordon: not too hard but we'd need to separate WPS tokens from WRS tokens
15:11:59Nico_Pthe parser would be the same obviously
15:12:34Nico_Pmost of the drawing code could be the same too
15:13:11JdGordonit would need its own buffers though right? reusing the wps ones would slow down swithing too much?
15:14:30Nico_PJdGordon: yeah, you'd need to reload the WPS if you used the same buffer.
15:15:31JdGordonI wonder who would be in favour of offering a really stripped down version of the wps for the archos' so we could get rombox going again
15:15:57Nico_Pwhat do you mean by that ? disabling some tokens ?
15:16:00JdGordonthen have 2 versions of the radio screen for the same reason
15:16:06JdGordonNico_P: yeah, and images
15:16:21JdGordon#ifdef HAVE_UBERFANCYGUI
15:16:40JdGordonor #ifdef HAVE_LOOKS_BUT_NO_BRAINS ?
15:17:18linuxstbBut doesn't that mean we would still have the existing problems (i.e. sysfont) for the !HAVE_UBERFANCYGUI ?
15:17:50JdGordonyes, probably
15:18:04Nico_Pwhat exactly is the sysfont problem ?
15:18:18JdGordonforcsing ascii only letters on some screens
15:18:44JdGordonbut i sort of moved on from that already :p
15:19:20parafinwhere i can find version string in source?
15:19:22amiconnThe tokens itself seem to be pretty efficient
15:19:28Nico_PJdGordon: disabling some tokens would probably give a nice code size decrease
15:19:32parafinwhich displayed during boot
15:19:44bluebrotherparafin: you can't ... it's generated during build
15:19:47*JdGordon remembers dropping 1k or somethign when the rtc tags were disabled
15:19:53bluebrothercheck for svnversion.sh calls.
15:19:59Nico_Pamiconn: the token code you mean ?
15:20:02JdGordonparafin: version.h has the variable you proabbly are after
15:20:06amiconnGetting rid of the LANG_SYSFONT cruft and then limiting the sysfont to ascii only will most probably save more
15:20:44JdGordonI thought sysfont was already ascii only? thats why the SYSFONT langs were needed?
15:20:47amiconnNico_P: I mean that each individual token doesn't add very much code
15:20:59amiconnJdGordon: No, sysfont is iso8859-1
15:21:26amiconnSo you need LANG_SYSFONT for non-latin languages
15:22:06amiconnAnd yes, viewports will make the transition to the UI font easier
15:22:19JdGordonhow?
15:22:30JdGordonpart of the problem is too much text on the screen for large fonts
15:22:31amiconnThere are 2 obvious cases: (1) quickscreen. (2) button bar
15:23:18amiconnThe quickscreen staggers the text for Left and Right, because otherwise rather long texts would overlap
15:23:30 Quit ptw419 ()
15:23:53amiconnWith viewports, every text would just get assigned one half of the screen - and it would scroll _within_ that area if it's long
15:24:06amiconn-> no stagger -> less lines
15:28:20*linuxstb reads about the Rockbox sim running on a phone - http://www.motorolafans.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=13257
15:31:19JdGordonlooks like we might have an excuse to make the sim more of a target soon...
15:32:33bluebrothermore of a target?
15:33:07linuxstb"rockbox-as-application"
15:33:16bluebrotherbah ...
15:33:51linuxstbI think there's a place for both though - the existing sim, and a specific SDL (or whatever) target.
15:33:54JdGordonwell.. now we know it for sure works... PSP, gp2x, ... all very possible
15:34:24Nico_PJdGordon: I've been looking at the WPS code again and the thing is we'd nee something like enum wrs_token_type
15:34:47Nico_Pbut the other structs in the code want enum wps_token_type... maybe an union could do

15:38:06Nico_Pwe'd want the WRS tokens with the recording screen code if it exists
15:38:11parafinbluebrother, thanx, i found it
15:38:21linuxstbpetur: There's a download at the top of the first page. But yes, I didn't see any source.
15:38:22LinusNthe only cowon player is the X5V
15:38:44LinusNlots of empty rows in the device selection list
15:39:29bluebrotherhmm. Do you have a rbutil.ini file in the program folder?
15:39:51LinusNah, maybe i have an old one there, i'll delete it and try again
15:39:52JdGordonNico_P: I think if we can keep the same code for everything except token->text happening it would be great
15:39:59Nico_PJdGordon: true but actually maybe struct wps_token can be made more generic with type being an int instead of an enum wps_token_type
15:40:21JdGordonno, the enum is good.. just rename it...
15:40:34*JdGordon doesnt see a problem having them all in one enum
15:40:38bluebrotherhmm, maybe the name of that file should be changed.

15:42:08Nico_PJdGordon: well if everything is in the same enum, we can just have WPS_TOKEN_* and WRS_TOKEN_*
15:42:23JdGordonyeah
15:43:03LinusNbluebrother: one small thing: the installation progress log doesn't seem to be updated
15:43:25*JdGordon would like WPS_* REC_* and WFM_* ... or something
15:43:50LinusNit displays "downloading the file rockbox.zip", and then stays there until all files are extracted, and then you see the rest of the text
15:44:00bluebrotherah, that's intentional.
15:44:14LinusNreally?
15:44:19bluebrotherthe unzip class unfortunately doesn't give use any progress information
15:44:32Nico_PJdGordon: what would WFM stand for ?
15:44:40bluebrotheror do you miss the "extraction file" when extraction starts?
15:44:41JdGordonwhile fm?
15:44:41LinusNit should at least say "download finished" before extracting, shouldn't it?
15:44:54bluebrotherit should. /me goes checking
15:44:59JdGordoncant use While Radio Screen if we use While Rec Screen
15:45:10*JdGordon btw hates the WPS term :p
15:45:26Nico_Phave a better one ?

16:01:42LiquidDragonanyone have any ideas?
16:01:51amiconnlow_light: I see no problem in just 2 files being really target specific
16:02:22amiconnThe 1g2g is combined because ipodpatcher cannot distingiush G1 and G2. Apple also uses a combined firmware
16:02:53linuxstblow_light: Do you mean a combined target as in a single build?
16:03:10amiconnfirmware/target/arm/ipod/video even has a single file only
16:03:12low_lighthmm...if I move them up what would I name them...ata-sandisk (what about the next sandisk target) or ata-e200_c200?
16:03:58JdGordonata_ce200?
16:04:01low_lightlinuxstb: different builds, but one target directory.
16:04:08amiconnrasher: around now?
16:04:12linuxstblow_light: Then the 1g2g is a bad example - it's a single build.
16:05:16low_lightmaybe ata-microsd ?
16:06:16bluebrotheriaudio x5 and x5l are the same builds, right?
16:06:20JdGordon-sansa?
16:06:32bluebrothererr, x5 and x5v I mean
16:06:52amiconnbluebrother: They are the same hardware except battery (x5l) resp. radio (x5v)
16:07:07bluebrotherhmm, but the bootloader is different.
16:07:10amiconnIt is also a single build
16:07:43low_lightshould the adc be adc-ce200 or adc_sansa or adc_as3514 (since it specifically uses the as3514)?
16:07:44amiconnThe raw bootloader is identical, just the name (and header?) is different

16:44:05sunjuni knew i missed something obvious... thanks
16:44:23preglowanyway, sounds weird that a radio-less device has a radio menu...
16:44:49bluebrothershouldn't the menu auto-adjust if no radio hardware is detected?
16:45:00sunjunthe main menu doesnt have the fm menu
16:45:08sunjunbut there is a start screen setting for it
16:45:21sunjuncould this be a bug?
16:45:24bluebrotherah.

16:45:44bluebrotheryep −− if no radio menu is shown you shouldn't be able selecting it as startup screen.

16:46:31pixelmaseems like radio detection on Sansa is a bit... broken. People in the forums reported it the other way round too, i.e. having a Sansa with radio which isn't always detected (but sometimes)

18:10:41N[e]oi using rockbox , and my font size is too small...
18:11:09krazyktif you've installed the fonts, you can simply select another one

18:11:48N[e]oYes dude but its hebrew font , and there is blood , large,small,medium and they are all too small :X
18:11:54N[e]oand my eyes getting heart from it
18:12:14N[e]oso i cant choose somthing else :X
18:12:39fm2GodEater: if it always should put the cursor at the entry, why the need to make difference between dirs and files? Just so the user knows?

18:14:45N[e]oi will try now , sec.
18:14:46bluebrotheryou don't need a hebrew font. You just need a font that contains hebrew characters
18:14:57bluebrotherunifont is the most complete regarding characters ...

18:24:20Carroarmato0Hi, I'm trying to sync my Ipod nano with rockbox on it through amarok... I'm using the new version 1.4.7 which declairs it has support for rockbox... problem is I can't find anything.

18:24:55bluebrotherI always wondered what they claim "rockbox support for ipods".
18:25:14bluebrotherbut you can use it as generic media device −− or as ipod (if you use the database)
18:26:04Carroarmato0I tried that... but strangely enough amarok says the device has to be mounted.... while it is already mounted....
18:26:22bluebrotherhave you tried asking the amarok guys?
18:26:38Carroarmato0jup
18:26:53N[e]oi think it will be ok with nimbus 14 :X
18:26:55bluebrotherand what did they say? What is this rockbox support?
18:27:13Carroarmato0the folks there said they don't have any experience with ipod.... ironicly...
18:28:07Carroarmato0I searched everywhere... even on the amarok web page I can't find nothing with the rockbox ipod combo
18:28:15bluebrotherthey added support but don't have experience? Strange ..
18:28:23Carroarmato0yeah... weird
18:28:43bluebrotherI (briefly) searched for that too. Not that I would want to use it, but I wanted to know what it is ;-)
18:29:03Carroarmato0haven't heard of amarok? ^^

18:31:59bluebrotherN[e]o: that depends entirely on you. Plus, themes usually require you to use a matching font

19:06:50LloreanI don't use voice on mine, so that would explain why I don't experience it.
19:07:18amiconnThat's annoying - I use voice in the car in order to be less distracted - and then the darn thing freezes...
19:07:22LloreanYeah
19:08:01LloreanYou've been saying for a long time voice has some problems.
19:08:30smurfDoes anybody have a working rockbox image for an ipod photo? The thing crashes after a few seconds of playing music.
19:08:34amiconnNot on hwcodec though
19:10:55Lloreanamiconn: How different is the voice playback for hwcodec vs swcodec?
19:11:06n1samiconn: were these problems introduced by the voice-splashes patch i committed?
19:11:07Lloreansmurf: Which SVN revision are you trying to use?
19:11:08amiconnIn the morning (when I got 4 of the 5 freezes) I was running a build from 20 Aug, so I updated in order to have pondlife's latest fix in place, only to get yet another freeze when resuming...
19:11:55preglowamiconn: do you know how retailos sets up i2s/audio codec on the pp5020?
19:11:58amiconnn1s: No, only that it seems the splash voicing makes freezes more likely
19:12:13amiconnpreglow: nope
19:12:30 Part Carroarmato0
19:12:36smurfLlorean: A few months ago I upgraded to the latest daily build (without saving the old stuff. Yeah, that was dumb) and it was broken. I just retried with today's. Same result.
19:12:40n1sThe only hang I've spotted was when shutting down without stopping playback but that seems to have been fixed by the patch i committed yesterday
19:12:52n1samiconn: are you using .talk clips?
19:12:59amiconnI am almost sure the data aborts/prefetch aborts on PP with voice enabled and the freezes on coldfire are in fact the same thing
19:13:06Lloreansmurf: Are you sure you properly updated? A few months ago the 4Gs had a severe known freezing problem. Today they shouldn't.
19:13:14Lloreansmurf: As well, you shouldn't be using dailies, but instead current builds.
19:13:16amiconnn1s: Usually yes, but it also happens with talk clips disabled
19:13:52 Quit `sam` ("bbl")
19:14:06amiconnSome address (pointer, probably) gets overwritten or something, causing a wild access
19:14:32Febssmurf: also, make sure that you have the most recent bootloader.
19:14:52amiconnPP will crash with mentioned exceptions, while on coldfire accessing a non-existent location causes a bus hang
19:14:56*Domonoky waves back to bluebrother.. a bit delayed .. :-)
19:15:21n1samiconn: is it reproducible in the sim? can't test voice on sim, 64 bits here
19:16:03smurfFebs: OK, I'll try that
19:16:10amiconnI have no idea...
19:16:52smurfLlorean: Well, the info screen says "r-14530-070830" ... that looks about right I'd say.
19:17:12Lloreansmurf: That's the daily, yes, 3 revisions behind the current.

19:17:31Lloreansmurf: But as Febs said, also make sure your bootloader's updated, and as I said, we don't recommend use of the daily.
19:18:01amiconnIf it is what I think, I would guess that it's not reproducable in the sim
19:18:25amiconnTesting in the sim would be a major hassle though
19:19:34smurfLlorean: as the problem has persisted for months, I don't think being a rev behind (build.rockbox.org says r14531) is going to make a difference, but OK.

19:20:36Lloreansmurf: As we haven't established you're using the current bootloader, your actual SVN revision may be irrelevant because your CPU may not be initialized properly
19:21:08Lloreansmurf: As for the current revision, being a few behind probably doesn't make a difference here, but we still require it being the current build when you report something because it also often DOES matter.
19:21:08smurfLlorean: already downloading that
19:21:18smurfLlorean: OK
19:21:32LloreanI can't begin to describe to you how often someone reports a bug that exists in the Daily, but is fixed in the Current, for one reason or another
19:24:35smurfFebs: Works now. Thank you!
19:24:44FebsGlad to be of service.
19:26:01smurfNow if the boot loader passed its version number to the main image, and if the image would check that it's not too old, then I'd have figured that one out myself. ;-)
19:26:20linuxstbsmurf: That would be too easy...
19:26:59smurf... now that the ipod works again, who the hell stole my headphones: :-/
19:27:01Lloreansmurf: The new installer should be able to tell you if the last bootloader you installed is now outdated.
19:27:38linuxstbLlorean: Is that implemented now?
19:27:59Domonokyit can tell this only if you installed the bootloader with rbutil
19:29:28Domonokythe checking / md5 ing of the installed bootloader isnt implemented..
19:29:46smurfThe ipod docs say to just download and extract the image, no installer
19:30:09Lloreansmurf: Hence the "new", it's not quite "out" yet. ;)
19:30:15linuxstbYes, the installer isn't released yet, and hence isn't mentioned in the manual.
19:30:30linuxstbThe installer authors keep rewritiing it...
19:30:38Domonoky:-)

19:31:26 Quit jeeger (Read error: 113 (No route to host))
19:35:16Domonokyit would be nice to have something like the new theme repository for the fm presets.. the rbutil could also download and install them.. :-)
19:36:02LloreanDomonoky: I liked the old method, a single .zip that had all of them. They were quite small.
19:36:30*bluebrother is looking for a solution to the x5 vs x5v issue
19:36:36LloreanBut the Preset Browser would need to show subdirectories
19:36:39Domonokyyeah,but who updates the zip with all the new presets in the wiki ?
19:37:03bluebrotherLlorean: well, we could have a presets page similar to the themes one. And auto-generate a zip file with all presets for one country
19:37:20LloreanDomonoky: I used to, for a while, then someone rearranged the whole wiki page and made a lot of changes to everything, and I couldn't keep track of all the changes easily
19:37:23bluebrothercould work in a similar way like the themes page
19:37:24LloreanI used to just have to watch a single page.
19:38:25Domonokybluebrother: which x5v issue ?
19:38:29linuxstbWouldn't a database of radio channels be better? In fact, there must be such sites already...
19:39:00 Part n1s
19:39:03Lloreanlinuxstb: Just give RBUtil the ability to import from an online database, you mean?
19:39:08Domonokyif there is such a page.. it would be nice to use it in rbutil and generate the fm presets..
19:39:12alienbiker99so are there really going to be 3 more devs working on the S?
19:39:35bluebrotherx5 and x5v use different bootloaders but the same build

19:41:14bluebrotherlinuxstb: no, the default configuration should do.
19:41:34Domonokybluebrother: thats why rbutil.ini has the plattform value the same and the bootloader value different.. between x5 and x5v.. i dont know if rbutilqt uses it correctly.. :-)
19:41:59bluebrotherit does not.
19:42:19bluebrotherfor detection I decided to try looking after the bootloader file −− it contains the needed string
19:42:45smurfstill very unstable when english.voice is installed, fortunately I don't need it
19:43:13Domonokydoes the bootloader file persist on iaudio x5 when instaling ?
19:44:00bluebrotheryes.
19:44:20Domonokybluebrother: which value is used in rbutilqt for the plattform ? the section name, or the platform key ?
19:45:17bluebrothernot sure ... I think it's the platform key
19:45:55Domonokyso bootloader install on a x5v installs the wron bootloader now ?
19:46:19polygonalrasher: here?
19:46:34bluebrotherwell, I haven't checked the bootloader. The install itself tries to download the wrong build
19:46:43bluebrotherand autodetection doesn't work.
19:46:46Domonokyif installing of rockbox itself fails, then it uses the section name
19:46:53linuxstbIt's a shame that the targets getting software USB (and hence the potential for rbutil to communicate with Rockbox) are the ones where we don't need any communication to detect bootloader versions...
19:47:47amiconnThe iaudio flash loader deletes the *_fw.bin file after flashing
19:48:37linuxstbHow does rbutil handle the two ipod video builds?
19:48:50bluebrotherit does? Oops.

19:48:55Domonokybluebrother: but then the autodetection via the rockbox-info should work..
19:49:22bluebrotherwell, no. x5 and x5v use a build with the target: x5
19:49:26Domonokybluebrother, i think it should use the section name.. and the plattform key for downloading rockbox..
19:49:44bluebrother*grrr*
19:49:57Domonokyah.. now i understand..
19:50:00bluebrothermaybe I should write the platform to the log file too and use that in precendence.
19:50:33bluebrotherfixing the installation itself is easy. Detecting is somewhat more problematic
19:50:51 Quit atsea- (Remote closed the connection)
19:50:54Domonokyjup..
19:51:00FebsDomonkey, Bluebrother: a suggestion. After installing a theme with rbutil, return to the theme installation menu rather than the main menu.
19:51:02bluebrotheramiconn: is there any file in the FIRMWARE folder that persists and can help distinguishing between players?
19:51:13amiconnnope
19:51:24bluebrotherFebs: why? You can select multiple themes and install them the same time.
19:51:26amiconnThe firmware folder isn't even required to exist
19:51:39bluebrotherok. Then we need the log file.
19:52:05Domonokybluebrother: add it to the log file, or another info file :-)
19:52:12FebsBecause the average user will look at one theme, say "that looks good I want that," and install it, and then move on to another theme and repeat the process.
19:52:16amiconnWell, since both bootloaders have diferent filenames, you could put both into /firmware
19:52:27amiconnThe flash loader will pick the one it wants
19:52:44 Join atsea- [0] (i=atsea-@gateway/tor/x-fe96b2491313b2eb)
19:52:52bluebrotherhmm. We could merge x5 and x5v that way.
19:52:57Lloreanbluebrother: I'm gonna hafta agree with Febs, a lot of users are going to prefer point and pick to batch install.
19:53:02Domonokythats a nice idea..
19:53:03amiconnBut you need to log anyway, as there is no way to find out whether the bootloader is already installed
19:53:07bluebrotheramiconn: will the flash loader delete the other one?
19:53:18amiconnMost probably not
19:53:23bluebrotherok.
19:53:25Domonokyamiconn, we log the bootloader install..
19:53:27amiconnIt will delete the one it flashes
19:53:44bluebrotherso ... should we merge x5 and x5v or not?
19:53:46FebsAlso, it's not intuitively obviously that you can install multiple themes at one. (I didn't realize it until you just told me.)

19:55:34Domonokyand merging x5 and x5v would be good.. if it doesnt harm to install both bootloaders..

19:56:30LloreanFrazz: There's no official dual boot on that player.
19:56:33Domonokyand the ipod 64MB issues is still open.. but its not so problematic, as we install the 32MB version, which works on both..
19:56:38bluebrotherI agree. Someone should try. Having a small additional file around shouldn't harm
19:56:56Frazzwell somone posted one on iaudiophile
19:56:58amiconnDomonoky: It will only install one, I'm quite sure. The question is what to do with the leftover bootloader
19:57:01Domonokyto install a ipod64MB build we need a way to detect them..
19:57:21LloreanFrazz: Then ask that person, as I said, there's no official one, and we can't really provide support for software we didn't write as we can't know how it works or what it's supposed to do.

19:57:48bluebrotherwell, detection will currently use the 32mb one. So we could simply add it, and rely on users correcting the selection ...
19:58:10amiconnDo we know whether the x5 and x5v have different usb pids?
19:58:16bluebrotheruntil ipodpatcher can detect it correctly. linuxstb said something about some scsi query that would help doing so
19:58:55bluebrotheramiconn: no idea −− and DeviceDetection doesn't hold enough data

20:01:07morrijrre detecting a 64mb iPod, I know it doesn't help for the first install, but is it possible to query/determine which version of rockbox is currently installed and check for that?

22:13:16dantje_hi, can somebody give a troubled rockbox-on-sansa newbie a hand?
22:13:23PaulPositionHi there... Say, I'm trying to find out whether the Sansa E200's port of RB has the same "problems" as other Portalplayer targets in respect to the equalizer/crossfeed (not crossfade) and such. Namely, does it gets it overhelm CPU to the point where music will start skipping and the ui becomes completely unresponsive?
22:13:36markunqwm: yesterday I saw part of a documentary about people playing Donkey Kong until the machine runs out of memory and crashes :)
22:13:46LloreanThe King of Kong?
22:14:16qwmgosh.

22:14:21LloreanPaulPosition: All the PortalPlayers are the same speed.
22:14:41LloreanPaulPosition: But my Nano does neither of the things you've described when using the equalizer.
22:14:49markunLlorean: yes, it was King of Kong indeed
22:15:35PaulPositionHmm, maybe it's time for me to update my H10. :o Surely you do know (or remember) what I'm talking about...?!? :o (Used to be that, at most two bands could be used, and not too high or low...) ?

22:16:19 Quit ompaul ("later")
22:16:42PaulPositionDantje - You reboot the same as a non-rockboxed Sansa... round button + some other for 20-some seconds, I think. Manual should tell you.
22:17:27FebsLlorean: getting back to our conversation the other day, I've had the Gigabeat for less than 24 hours, but my experience with the button-mapping so far is that it is quite inconsistent with other RB platforms.
22:18:13LloreanFebs: Are there other significant problems beyond the function of "Select" and the A button in the WPS?
22:18:34PaulPositionLlorean - That's true. Of course I don't use peakmeters, and most of my files are vbr mp3s around averageing 192.. Guess I will just try a few things and see how it goes. −− Who knows, maybe I'll find out it wasn't as bad as I remember it to be.
22:18:36FebsThose are the ones that have been most obvious to me.
22:19:26LloreanFebs: There were a few more bad ones earlier in the port, I believe, but I think with #6920, which swaps those to, it becomes easier to use one handed, easier (for me) to use in my pocket, and more consistent all at once.
22:19:42LloreanI'm trying to remember if anyone still objects to it (though I'm sure if I committed it, users would complain for a little while)

22:22:00LloreanWas there some use case that the current map is better for?
22:22:11FebsThe "select" button enters the file browser from the WPS on every other RB platform I've owned. It seems very inconsistent that it does not do so on the GB as well.
22:22:51markun1) it's consistent with the archos recorder and 2) it's a logical mapping to have A go in and out of the WPS and SELECT for pause in my mind
22:22:59*linuxstb_ is with Llorean and Febs, but doesn't feel that strongly - it's not much of an effort to remember the GB is special...

22:23:41markunuse the remote :)
22:23:41LloreanAnd impossible to navigate with just my thumb to add to the playlist.
22:24:00fm2Is this a known "feature" that file operation (open) works differently on target on on the sim?
22:24:27linuxstb_fm2: You'll have to be more specific.
22:24:32fm2In the sim, I can't open a dir that way, but on target I can
22:25:02Lloreanmarkun: For me the big key is that with "Select" leaving the WPS, you then open up single-thumb navigation and use of the player, as you have on nearly every other target already
22:25:08markunLlorean: maybe if you change it again I will get used to it, but it was the way you want it before and we (the gigabeat port guys) didn't like it much
22:25:26markunwill you also change the archos recorde mapping?
22:25:39linuxstb_fm2: What happens when you open() a dir? IMO that shouldn't work anywhere.
22:25:47Lloreanmarkun: The center of the cross on the Recorder is actually a "Play/Pause" button already, it's labelled
22:26:03Lloreanmarkun: As well, it has face buttons that do the job, so one-thumb navigation is not harmed in any way by its current mapping.

22:27:52markunLlorean: maybe we should do a forum poll
22:27:53LloreanTo be honest, the one change I'd make to the AJBR is to make "Play/Pause" be the "Resume Playback" button rather than the "Select" button.
22:28:22 Quit low_light ("CGI:IRC (Ping timeout)")
22:28:35LloreanBut that's more personal preference (consistency) than allowing a new use case.
22:28:48LloreanI just don't see the point of intentionally preventing people from operating the player with just their thumb.
22:28:58LloreanEspecially since it also improves consistency across targets.
22:29:02Febsmarkun: my issues is that this is the 4th Rockbox platform that I have owned. All 4 have some form of up, down, left and right buttons, plus a center button. This is the only one where the center button does something different. If there were a good reason for the inconsistency, that would be one thing, but if all other things are equal, then I think we should strive for consistency.

22:31:12LloreanI don't even understand why this different mapping was chosen just for the Gigabeat.
22:31:25markunlooks like I'm in a very small minority here, so I guess it's fair that you guys change it
22:31:28Lloreanmarkun: You said you guys liked it better. Why? Or rather, what didn't you like about the normal mapping?
22:31:33amiconnWhile I didn't actually try the gigabeat mapping, I have to say that the gigabeat is not the only target where the centre button does not go to the browser
22:31:38markunif I don't like it I'll just patch my own source

22:32:06Lloreanamiconn: It's the only one where the center button is "Select" rather than "Play/Pause" isn't it?
22:32:19markunLlorean: we didn't like that pause was not mapped on the center because that was what we somehow expected (maybe from using the OF too much)
22:32:55linuxstb_fm2: Checking the Rockbox source and the Linux man page for open(), it seems Rockbox does the right thing - open() on a directory succeeds with O_RDONLY. It only fails with RDWR or WRONLY
22:33:00amiconnThe archos recorders do that too, partially because of the symbol on the centre button (Play/Pause), but also because the resulting mapping is rather convenient
22:33:31Lloreanamiconn: The archos recorder though, can be used with just a thumb even with that mapping. The Gigabeat has no way to leave the WPS once you're there, without using a side button, which I don't really like.
22:33:57amiconnOn the recorders ON toggles between browser and wps - very convenient imho
22:34:01markunLlorean: it's very easy for me to press the side button with my thumb, but maybe that's because I'm right handed (or just weird)

22:34:41markundo you have to use 2 hands?
22:34:43LloreanBut getting to A makes my thumb uncomfortable even left handed.
22:34:48amiconnThe archos player and Ondios behave similar (but they're not really comparable as they have no centre button
22:35:02Lloreanmarkun: If "center" leaves the WPS, you can press left in the filetree to get to the menu
22:35:26markuntrue, but a very inconvenient way of getting there
22:35:27amiconnSide buttons are always inconvenient imo, but nothing we can change...
22:35:40markunamiconn: unfortunately
22:35:42*amiconn prefers targets with standard buttons on the front
22:35:58amiconnI.e. no side buttons, no pads or wheels
22:35:59fm2linuxstb: I also thought that a dir can be opened and read as an ordinary file. And was surprised that it didn't work in the sim. I thought, it was the RB way of life...
22:36:19Lloreanmarkun: Yes, but only inconvenient relative to using one button press. If you're constrained to the front for some reason (single handed left-handed operation) it may be more convenient than using the side
22:36:31peturH10 is a bad player in that respect...
22:36:38fm2linuxstb: I hope, opening a file with opendir() will fail in both worlds! :-)

23:20:45LloreanLambdaCalculus37: Honestly, it may be a long time. The ZVM guys seem to come in surges, and repeat what the last surge did, at least in my observation

23:21:12LambdaCalculus37Llorean: However long it takes, it takes. Rome wasn't built in a day, anyway.
23:21:22linuxstb_There's already code in the archopen and (I think) Neuros projects....
23:22:14linuxstb_Have you investigated the firmware upgrade procedure, and whether you could run your own code on it easily and safely?
23:22:35LambdaCalculus37linuxstb_: I know the Dell DJ uses a TMS320DA25x CPU, but there's no way to get a datasheet without signing a Texas Instruments NDA.

23:23:17LambdaCalculus37linuxstb_: Dell offers firmware upgrades on their site still, but I haven't had a chance to try the firmware upgrade procedure out yet.

23:24:07LambdaCalculus37I did hook it to my laptop and ran lsusb -v on it to gather some info.
23:24:12LambdaCalculus37I'll post those results later.

23:27:22LambdaCalculus37I don't remember if the ZVM used the same variant of CPU, but I do know it's ARM with a C55x core.
23:27:40LambdaCalculus37There's also a USB slave controller built on the chip as well.
23:27:54LloreanLambdaCalculus37: I think they've put some information in our wiki.
23:28:12LambdaCalculus37Llorean: Let me check. I'll be right back.
23:29:05LambdaCalculus37Llorean: I was the last one to edit the wiki page for the TMS320.
23:29:27LloreanAh, okay

23:29:50LloreanI'll admit, I usually don't pay much attention to new ports unless I see them being actively worked on. ;)

23:30:26LambdaCalculus37I won't be able to really work on this for a while, but I'm at least trying to get something started by gathering information.
23:30:47LambdaCalculus37I'm going to start a DellDJ wiki page to start posting findings.
23:31:04LambdaCalculus37What I REALLY have to do is open the case and identify the hardware components.
23:31:07LloreanThe more info in the wiki, the easier it is for *anyone* to get started, I think.
23:31:25LambdaCalculus37Which is a good thing, of course. :)
23:31:28linuxstb_And it will start getting indexed by google...
23:31:40LambdaCalculus37Also good. :)
23:32:32LambdaCalculus37It's regretful that I had to put the Archos AV1xx port on the back burner, but the one I had wasn't mine to begin with.

23:33:03LambdaCalculus37Ehh, one day I'll get another AV1xx to work with.
23:34:41LambdaCalculus37jhulst: Are you one of the guys researching the ZVM? Your name seems familiar.
23:35:14jhulstLambdaCalculus37: yes
23:35:47jhulstNot so much right now, college started again for the year
23:36:01LambdaCalculus37jhulst: Cool! I was wondering if you could share some of your research with me. I'm interested in starting a port to the Dell Digital Jukebox, another TMS320-based DAP.
23:37:26LambdaCalculus37linuxstb_: I nearly forgot to mention that the Dell DJ communicates using MTP protocol.

23:38:55linuxstb_jhulst: What's the status of the work? Has anyone found a way to run third-party code?
23:39:51LambdaCalculus37jhulst: I just got the Dell DJ only recently, about 2 months back. Haven't been able to do much because of work and school.
23:40:20LambdaCalculus37I ran it through lsusb -v last night, but I've got to post the results.

23:41:35LambdaCalculus37I also think I may have to identify the chipset myself. Repeated searches on Google turn up precisely two things: Jack and Squat. And Jack left town.
23:42:29jhulstlinuxstb_: We have not found a way to run third party code, one of the biggest hurdles that we have recently crossed is actually get anything onto the device, All we know is on the forum thread

23:45:37jhulstOh, yeah we had to do all of that as well for the ZVM, Took it apart and scanned it
23:45:45LambdaCalculus37Before it slips my mind, I should mention that I'm dealing with a 1st Gen device here.
23:46:13LambdaCalculus37jhulst: My scanner's gone the way of the dodo.
23:47:00jhulstLambdaCalculus37: Isn't that a pretty old device?

23:47:49jhulstLambdaCalculus37: The Dell DJ :)
23:48:23LambdaCalculus37jhulst: Yeah, I think they came out in 2002, if I remember correctly.
23:49:44LambdaCalculus37jhulst: I did find this site on one of my many journeys: http://www.delldjsite.com/forums/showthread.php?t=6880, but I'll be damned if they tell me what I'm looking for.

23:50:28jhulstAccording to wikipedia, they are manufactured by Creative, I wonder how close it would be to a ZVM
23:51:19LambdaCalculus37jhulst: They're basically an older ZEN/NOMAD that's been redressed and OEMed by Dell.

23:51:57jhulstWhy the interest in such an old device :)
23:52:54LambdaCalculus37jhulst: Close to the same reason for Rockbox in the first place: Nasty, unintuitive menu system.
23:53:08LambdaCalculus37That, and also to use it as a proper UMS device.
23:53:21LambdaCalculus37Lastly... why not? :)
23:54:43jhulst:) one of the things I've discovered is the amount of work it takes to even get to the point where we are
