#rockbox log for 2007-08-31

00:02:28LambdaCalculus37jhulst: I'm not exactly "programmer extraordinaire", but I'm a fast learner, and I'm considering this to be unsurpassed learning experience.
00:03:31ddaltonso there is know menu button on the ipod with sim?
00:04:08LambdaCalculus37hachi: No, it's charging. It may not show it, but it is. Just watch the battery meter carefully, or you can see the number increase if you go to System > Rockbox Info.
00:04:19LambdaCalculus37ddalton: There is. It's the . key.

00:04:51LambdaCalculus37ddalton: Look at the number keypad on the side of your keyboard.
00:05:58ddaltonI am but do you know what button it is the numpad?
00:05:59ddaltonon
00:06:27LambdaCalculus37See the 0 key? There's the . key right next to it.
00:06:46hachiLambdaCalculus37: there isn't an option to plug in a rockbox player via usb and not have it reboot into the disk mode, by chance is there?
00:06:58hachithen I could stop using bits of tape to make my usb cables into charger cables
00:06:59ddaltonok thanks I will try that.
00:07:54RudMan_I gotta install the vmware build environment - I need to modify the simulator to work on laptops
00:08:02linuxstbddalton: "insert" is also MENU on the ipod sim
00:08:07hcshachi: hold down menu when connecting (but you have to hold it down for a while)
00:08:15ddaltonthanks I will try that as well
00:08:33hcshachi: don't think you can toggle it anywhere in the options, though

00:13:07_jzhey !
00:13:11_jzhello all
00:13:17_jzjust had a striking idea
00:13:34_jzenyone ever thought of doing a _very simple_ BPM counter for rockbox ?
00:14:06_jzpressing select, select, select, select... it would display the BPM (so easy to program, it's an exercise for some C teacher i knew :)
00:14:21_jzand one key could save it to the "BPM" field of the ID3 of the currently listened track !
00:14:29_jzit would be so fun to do it while in the metro
00:14:35_jzand would be so useful afterwards !
00:14:54_jz(this would help selling rockbox to DJs, though :)
00:14:58*ddalton Wonders why compiling from a clean build dir I get make [error 2] and when I run make again it builds with no errors.
00:15:01hachihcs: do you have to hold down menu before the usb cord shows up on the screen?
00:15:31LambdaCalculus37_jz: That's really nice and all, but the best thing to keep in mind is that if you have a request like this, you should at least get some work started on it.
00:15:39hcshachi: yes, hold it down as you're plugging into usb and keep held down for something like 20 seconds (at least that's what it is on my system, with linux)
00:15:47_jzLambdaCalculus37: I perfectly know the drill
00:15:48LambdaCalculus37_jz: Do you have anything started on this yet?
00:15:59_jzLambdaCalculus37: but i'm not a coder myself
00:16:09_jzi have some 10th of lines of C that must to the BPM counting part, yes
00:16:12RudMan_you're in the wrong channel then :P
00:16:25_jz(i think i have them :)
00:16:32_jzRudMan_: sorry, I will leave...
00:16:42hachiso, I just tried to install the "Dark geek" theme... which has garbled my screen
00:16:54hachican anyone count off the menu items I need to pick to get back to the theme menu?
00:17:01_jzhachi: you can edit the .cfg file
00:17:07_jzit's simpler :)
00:17:11hachino it's not

00:18:01stripwaxhachi - just reset your settings
00:18:06hachiediting the cfg file requires me to crawl behind my computer and plug the cable in
00:18:06stripwaxoh . what scorche said
00:18:19scorche=)
00:18:49_jzhachi: maybe you should buy some 2$ USB prolongator cable, but that's another topic... ;)
00:18:56bluebrother_jz: tried the metronome plugin?
00:19:16pixelma_jz: the metronome plugin can count the bpm you are tapping... bluebrother was faster...

00:22:27stripwaxhachi - what does 'garbled' and 'worse' actually mean here... ?
00:23:09hachifirst theme change loaded "Dark Geek" which landed me with what appeared to be correct colors and icons, but the fonts were all just a mess of noise
00:23:29bluebrotherhachi: installed the fonts package?
00:23:51hachithen I figured out the theme menu (4, 4) and picked Uni..something, and the screen went black with only the battery indicator showing up
00:23:59hachithe rockbox battery indicator I mean
00:24:12hachithen I did the reset, and everything came up fine, picked Dark Geek again and it's working fine now
00:24:39_jzwell i'll look into the code of that thing someday

00:31:23LloreanYes
00:31:27LloreanIt's today's date.
00:31:34LloreanToday has been several hours long, if you hadn't noticed.
00:31:38hachiyes
00:31:43LloreanWhich is why we have the "Current" build, made every time the code changes.
00:31:48LloreanAnd we direct people to use that.

00:34:20Lloreanhachi: Did you read the manual? It also explains "Current Builds" and we do expect you to read that, as mentioned in various guidelines.
00:34:57LambdaCalculus37hachi: Remember that the Current Builds are what helps us zero in on bugs if any are reported.
00:35:17LloreanThough in the case of the Recording screen, I'm pretty sure it's a known issue that playback doesn't work after you enter it on iPods.

00:35:48 Nick fxb__ is now known as fxb (n=felixbru@h1252615.stratoserver.net)
00:36:15LambdaCalculus37Llorean: That bug has been rather persistent throughout several months worth of builds, and I can't even begin to know where to start count. :)
00:36:15LloreanLambdaCalculus37: There's also the common case where someone reports a bug that's already been fixed, the developer who thought he just fixed it panics, and spends time trying to figure out what he did wrong
00:36:37LloreanThen an hour later we find out the person was running a daily, not the current, and so didn't have the fix in his build, but he *told* us he was "Up to date" misleading us.
00:37:24LambdaCalculus37Llorean: Don't you just love those types of people that make developers go crazy looking for already squashed bugs?
00:37:38LloreanLambdaCalculus37: Just look for the initial recording commit for iPods. Playback has never yet worked after recording on iPods, as I don't think there's that many iPod owners who use recording and also are developing.

00:38:46LloreanI've got an iRiver H120 for that, the very few times I ever use it.
00:39:16LambdaCalculus37But it's really annoying to accidently enter the recording screen and end up with broken audio playback. I have to end up resetting my iPod with MENU+SELECT.

00:56:15`sh4well, i was going to ask if anyone here's familiar with the e200 hardware
00:56:39iambeni know what all the buttons do
00:56:48`sh4i've had them apart, but i just took this one apart...and noticed the strangest thing. it has 2 8GB chips, instead of the normal 1 2GB chip
00:57:02`sh4i was wondering if there was a way to unlock that through the daughter board or something
00:57:13LloreanAre you sure it's not two 8Gb chips?
00:57:27`sh4Llorean: well, it has 2 of these: SDTNIHHSM-8192
00:57:34LambdaCalculus37`sh4: Hang on.
00:57:34`sh4which i've never seen before in an e250

00:57:50iamben8192 megabits?
00:58:08iamben1 gigabyte or so
00:58:24`sh4well, all the other e250s i've seen have one chip
00:58:36`sh4think they're labeled 2048 in bytes, not sure though :(
00:58:47`sh4MB of course hehe
00:59:01Llorean8192 gigabit each would still be two gigabytes though. But I haven't looked up that chip yet.
00:59:12LambdaCalculus37`sh4: Getting information right now.
00:59:45`sh4LambdaCalculus37: ah, thanks. it just seems so strange. i had the player apart to repair something, and noticed that...and was like !!!
01:00
01:01:34LambdaCalculus37`sh4: Google turned up nothing useful.
01:01:51LambdaCalculus37But I think they may be 8 gigabit chips as mentioned before.
01:02:00LambdaCalculus37How old is this Sansa?
01:02:11LambdaCalculus37Did you buy it when they first came out? Or recently?
01:02:23`sh4nah, i picked it up to repair recently. just a used one

01:37:37LambdaCalcuclus3pixelma: Yeah, sorry 'bout that. But Cowon tends to use the iAUDIO moniker for their players...
01:37:59LambdaCalcuclus3Kind of like iriver being all lowercase nowadays?
01:38:28rasherI still think we should just ignore these shenanigans and treat them as proper nouns, not logos.
01:38:46pixelmapersonally I think we shouldn't mind how they spell it - what if they change their mind, like Iriver. I'd just use it as a name but am no native speaker
01:38:46LloreanLogos are .png, .gif, and .jpg files, for text they're just proper nouns. ;)
01:39:54LambdaCalcuclus3Llorean: Understandable. I just tend to be a little anal about it sometimes. :P

01:41:17rasherBut that's just my opinion, of course.

01:42:28LambdaCalcuclus3It's kind of silly, if you ask me.

01:49:19pixelmaI got mine from an UK store who sells now and then often 20 new ones for a "buy now" price
01:49:32LambdaCalcuclus3pixelma: Do you remember the name of the store?
01:49:34`sh4hmm, so player model info of the e200 series is stored in that hidden 20MB partition on the daughterboard, it seems. if this e200 really *does* have 8GB chips for some reason, i wonder what would happen if i were to edit the model info :(

01:50:31pixelmaLambdaCalcuclus3: yes, let me see if I can link you
01:50:35Llorean`sh4: Rockbox doesn't limit what you have access to, so if it really had 8GB chips, and they were properly attached, there's no reason why you wouldn't have access to all of it afaik.
01:51:10`sh4Llorean: oooh, i didn't know that about rockbox. i have more than one of these, so i'll stick rockbox on this real quick
01:51:12Llorean`sh4: I don't see why you're assuming they are when Occam's Razor simply points to it being bits, a common thing with flash and ram chip labeling.
01:51:51`sh4simply because i've had at least 10 of these apart
01:51:54pixelmaLambdaCalcuclus3: http://stores.ebay.de/MP3-DIRECT
01:51:55`sh4and this is the first of it's nature
01:52:06`sh4probably is bits, but i can't help to be curious heh
01:52:12LambdaCalcuclus3pixelma: Many thanks!
01:52:43pixelmaLambdaCalcuclus3: 2 downsides - the charger had UK plugs and they just accepted PayPal from me
01:52:46Llorean`sh4: Considering the SDTNKHHSM-32768 is 4GB, it's VERY likely it's bits. :-P
01:53:08`sh4Llorean: ah, okay. i didn't know that was a 4GB chip
01:53:20LambdaCalcuclus3pixelma: I have a voltage adapter set. But do they ship to the U.S.?
01:54:10pixelmathey shipped to Germany (which was pretty fast), but better ask
01:54:14`sh4Llorean: honestly, i haven't really checked chip numbers etc, so i'm sure it has to be 2GB. :)

02:26:34LambdaCalcuclus3Wasn't the original runtime on the OF somewhere around 10-12 hours, or no?

05:02:31LiquidDragonYou think?
05:02:37scorcheNimdae: if you pay enough, sure
05:02:41LiquidDragonYou don't even know what kind of programs you fix?

07:33:06webguest46Hi guys
07:33:23webguest46Love Rockbox..
07:33:29webguest46Rockbox is ROCK
07:34:35webguest46one question though...I have my Rockbox set as default config.(no graphic).. some of the FLAC play only partial of the song and jump to the next song and again doing the same on the next and next songs
07:34:59webguest46is that because of something wrong with the FLAC album?
07:35:37webguest46I don't seem to have problem with some other FLAC
07:37:18webguest46anyone?
07:38:30 Join midgey [0] (n=tjross@westquad-188-46.reshall.umich.edu)
07:39:40webguest46ok..so let try the next question that I am having problem with..
07:40:04webguest46I am using the IPOD 80GB Video..how do I increase the plugin memory?
07:40:25aliaskwebguest46: Why do you want to?
07:40:59webguest46because when I try to view picture, some said that I don't have enough plugin memory
07:41:18aliaskYou'd have to manually recompile rockbox
07:41:49webguest46ok..and how am I going about doing that?
07:42:28webguest46what compiler do I use
07:43:49aliaskhttp://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/SimpleGuideToCompiling
07:45:38webguest46Thanks aliask
07:50:26webguest46Thanks to all though who put great effort and time in developing ROCKBOX...
07:50:50webguest46those
07:52:34webguest46Here is my small wish list:
07:53:24 Quit midgey ()
07:54:07webguest461) when in Rockbox, shutdown (sleep) mode should wake up in Rockbox instead of Linux boot screen ( when in apple mode, it actually wake up in ipod).
07:54:18webguest462) play mp4 on it
07:55:02webguest463) Database should see playlist exactly as Apple playlist
07:55:10webguest46That's it!!!
07:57:29scorcheshutdown is not the same as sleep, and that is the ipl bootloader...not ours; as for 2 that is not likely to happen as you typically have to reformat for the ipod anyway and we do not control the broadcom chip on the device; as for 3, there was a discussion on the forums about it semi-recently...look at that for our thoughts
08:00
08:00:27 Join daurnimator [0] (i=daurn@unaffiliated/daurnimator)
08:01:14webguest461) let say I pause rockbox and it turn off by itself, when I click Select, it turn back on with IP bootloader
08:01:48scorcheas i said, that isnt our bootloader....that is ipl's
08:02:24webguest46I understand your point, just that I wonder why it would work in Apple mode
08:02:41scorchewonder why what would work?
08:04:00webguest46when boot in Apple mode, when it goes to sleep, wake up in apple instead of bootloader
08:04:11scorchethe original firmware rarely ever shuts down...it goes into sleep mode...rockbox shuts down and doesnt sleep...if you had our bootloader, it would go right into rockbox without a boot menu
08:04:29scorcheas i said before...shutdown is not the same as sleep
08:05:20webguest46ok..is there away I can make Rockbox to sleep instead of shutdown while idling
08:05:50scorcheas i said before, rockbox doesnt sleep
08:06:03webguest46oh..ok
08:06:08webguest46Thx
08:06:40webguest46and that's why I put it on wish list to sleep instead of shutdown when idling
08:07:25scorchewell, your wishlist doesnt really mean anything...we have a section of our tracker that is dedicated to feature requests...if it isnt there already, add it
08:08:01webguest46alright..Thanks scorche

09:22:44rvvs89well, if you mostly use rockbox, you'll probably want to keep that bootloader
09:22:54rvvs89I'm not sure if it can load iPL though
09:23:05rvvs89what with not using it and all heh
09:23:21rvvs89I do know that iPod Loader 2 will load both
09:23:30rvvs89but apparently it causes some problems
09:23:53B4gderyes, the rockbox bootloader can load and run linux too
09:23:54ddaltonso what one is better?
09:24:18B4gderddalton: the ipl loader has a fancy menu, the rockbox one does not
09:24:41ddaltonso is ipodlinux better than rb?
09:24:42rvvs89you can customise the iPL loader menu
09:24:43B4gderddalton: for you I guess that won't be much fun anyway ;-)
09:24:49ddaltonyeah
09:25:00rvvs89ddalton: they aren't comparable
09:25:12rvvs89but I would say rockbox does a far better job at being a music player
09:25:23rvvs89and is far more active with development
09:25:53rvvs89however, if you want Linuc on your iPod, then look no further
09:25:59rvvs89s/Linuc/Linux
09:27:57ddaltonso what does linux do on the ipod?
09:28:09ddaltonand can you develop it like rockbox?
09:28:26B4gderddalton: it has a few more games
09:29:14scorcheddalton: afaik, being blind-friendly is not one of its goals
09:29:18rvvs89well, it's also Linux, so a lot of the things you can do on a desktop in Linux, you can also do in iPL
09:29:42B4gderexcept that it doesn't have a keyboard or any other decent input...
09:30:01ddaltonso can you patch the kernal and compile it.
09:30:09ddaltonso use www.linux-speakup.org
09:30:09B4gderyes
09:30:11rvvs89B4dger: but it does...
09:30:21ddaltonso any linux app will work on it?
09:30:26B4gderddalton: but they use an outdated kernel and I doubt many people build their own
09:30:36B4gderddalton: no
09:30:47B4gderddalton: you need to rebuild them for it and it is uclinux, not "real" linux
09:31:01ddaltonB4gder: do they need to be ported to it like rockbox?
09:31:02B4gderwhich is almost the same, but not exactly the same
09:31:15B4gderddalton: they probably require less porting than for rockbox
09:31:22rvvs89ddalton: why don't you have a look at the web site... when it comes back online...
09:31:29rvvs89http://ipodlinux.org/
09:31:36ddaltonso you could probably somehow get www.linux-speakup.org to run on ipodlinux?
09:31:40B4gderrvvs89: the ipodlinux site really is not very useful to get info

10:05:58GodEaterripped straight from your mpegplayer plugin yes
10:06:12linuxstbI had an excuse - mpegplayer is a port of libmpeg2
10:06:40B4gder... but then ipl can't play music decently since they don't have memory available ;-)
10:06:52GodEaterwell perhaps fm2's rewrite of the plugin will replace my linked list code with a proper array then

10:17:23fm2GodEater: one more question about shortcuts. Why did you choose to use malloc()? Why not grab the buffer and use it as an array?
10:17:44GodEaterhahahahahaha
10:17:50GodEaterit's like he's psychic
10:18:09GodEaterfm2 - mainly because the example in the listwidgets page in the wiki used one
10:18:25GodEaterand I could be bothered to work out how to rework that example to read an array
10:18:31GodEaterso pure laziness
10:19:45*scorche is seeing a theme here
10:20:40fm2GodEater: because all that stuff with last_entry etc is ... a little bit magic. But it can be a good example that malloc is still possible in RB :-)
10:21:33GodEaterfm2: yes - I found the edge cases a bit of a pain - it didn't start that complex :(
10:23:24fm2GodEater: do you know how to write at the end of a file, i.e. append to it? The appender could then be greatly simplified.
10:23:57GodEaterfm2: seek to the end, and write there
10:23:59GodEaternot too tricky
10:24:25GodEaterI just chose not to that way in my plugin because it made it more complex if you were writing the file once an entry had been deleted

10:56:43midkaywhat's "threads" and what's the "first" link for?
10:57:18B4gdera thread is a mail thread
10:57:29B4gderthe first link is a link to the first mail in the thread
10:57:41B4gderthe number is the number of mails in the thread
10:57:52midkayso the actual link is to the latest post?
10:58:02B4gderyes
10:58:09midkayvery confusing stuff.
10:58:21midkayshould be s/"recent threads on the mailing list"/"recent posts on the mailing list".
10:58:49B4gderbut it is recent threads, since it shows the ten most recent threads and not the ten most recent posts...
10:59:01midkaythat's even more confusing.
10:59:33peturmaybe "recent active threads"?
10:59:53peturor "posts on recent active threads"
10:59:58midkayi think it'd be most useful if you made it exactly like "recent svn" activity and just show the ten most recent posts or something. that or the ten most recent threads, and provide a link to first and latest post.
11:00
11:00:43B4gderI'll commit the script soon and you'll be free to improve it ;-)
11:01:08midkayi say make it look like the SVN table, make it "recent threads on the mailing list", make the columns "List" (for list posted to), "subject" (with URLs to first and latest post), time of creation and/or latest post, and number of replies or something.
11:01:11B4gderit very often doesn't know the first mail in the threads
11:01:11midkayhaha.
11:01:56B4gdermostly because I've written the script to not scan more mails than necessary
11:02:17B4gdersince there are insanely many mails to scan otherwise
11:02:33LinusNwell, if it fails to find the first post, it is surely necessary to scan more mails
11:02:46B4gdernot only
11:02:55B4gderit also fails because the script isn't perfect
11:03:00LinusNof course
11:03:09B4gderlike when people change subject names etc, it fails to figure out the first

13:47:48ddaltonGodEater: are you there?
13:49:24LinusNddalton: LANG_ALARM_MOD_TIME will not be spoken with your patch
13:49:53LinusNsince it is used with an snprintf() and not talk_id
13:50:49LinusNso you can remove the voice phrase in the lang file and use str() instead of ID2P
13:50:59LinusNlike it was before
13:51:57ddaltonLinusN: is it spoken further down. Look for the variable "alarm_time_to_go"
13:52:01ddaltonIt is of type int
13:52:36ddaltonwhat is the difference between str and ID2P?
13:53:10LinusNddalton: but that is a different lang id, LANG_ALARM_MOD_TIME_TO_GO
13:56:26LinusNddalton: str() gives you a real pointer to a string, ID2P() gives you a "virtual pointer" created from the ID
13:57:05LinusNit is part of a scheme that lets us pass both ID's and string pointers to some functions
13:57:25ddaltonLinusN: thanks I will fix it
13:58:00ddaltonLinusN: do you think if I can fix this it has any chance of being excepted?
13:58:01LinusNby looking at the code, i don't think it will talk if the voice menus option is off
13:58:21ddaltongood one less thing I have to worry about.
13:58:22LinusNi personally don't see a reason not to accept it
13:58:24Nico_Pbluebrother: here ? I still have my "create voice files" crash in rbutilqt
13:58:32Nico_Pon another computer this time
13:58:59ddaltonI think blind users should be able to get access to it. It may come in as a handy feature.
14:00
14:00:02LloreanI think blind users should be able to get access to everything in Rockbox, so I'm all for voicing any screen possible with the exception of maybe the debug menu.
14:00:16LloreanI don't think space needs to be wasted in the voice file for that.
14:01:17ddaltonyeah your prbably right. I would like to know what's in there. Maybe one day I will right myself a patch so I can see what's in there.
14:01:21ddaltonprobably
14:01:52ddaltonI am about to start work on a patch that will hopefully voice the rest of the splash screens. What do you guys think?
14:02:05*linuxstb looks at the date and sees it's the official end of Google SoC 2007 in 7 hours
14:02:19LinusNddalton: the debug menus are tricky to voice, since they display plenty of realtime information that change a lot faster than the voice can say it

14:03:38LloreanI kinda wish that the "Scanning Disk" splash wasn't voiced, actually.
14:03:40Nico_Plinuxstb: yes, that's it
14:03:50ddaltonLinusN: did you say get rid of LANG_ALARM_MOD_TIME?
14:03:52Nico_Plinuxstb: and the tshirts :)
14:04:27LinusNddalton: yes, get rid of the voice part of it, that your patch added
14:04:47linuxstbLlorean: Isn't that useful to know that there's a delay at boot?
14:05:10peturFYI, unless anybody objects (PM me) I'm tilting towards passing austriancoder
14:05:34Lloreanlinuxstb: Yes, at boot perhaps. But it also speaks immediately after Disk Mode, when the scanning disk is often gone faster than I can even see it.
14:05:59Lloreanlinuxstb: Which I believe is a background scan anyway?
14:07:29linuxstbLlorean: I guess that's the problem with all splashes - they can be irrelevant by the time they're spoken. That's even the case with some visual splashes - e.g. quick database searches.
14:08:44LloreanUnfortunately there's really no way to do it better. You can't tell how long some of those splashes will be visible in advance.
14:08:57***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
14:09:07linuxstbI know....
14:09:15LloreanMaybe an option to interrupt the voice if the splash being spoken is cleared?
14:09:30LloreanI wouldn't suggest it default to on, or you'd get people asking why their player keeps saying "Sca"
14:09:54ddaltonI started on a couple but lost my changes. I did "scanning disk under the info screen" Deleting restarting play back and I think there was one more

14:13:57Lloreanpixelma, febs: Does the database work on removable / hotswappable volumes right now?
14:14:38FebsI don't know. I assumed that it did.
14:14:46pixelmaLlorean: I think so, dircache didn't work so auto-update would give a problem.
14:14:53LloreanAh
14:15:03*Febs is still waiting for his e250 to arrive.
14:15:08LloreanSo a manually updated database will work, but it'll need to be reinited if the content is removed?

14:15:23pixelmayes

14:18:51pixelma(not initialising again)
14:19:56LinusNddalton: looks allright, apart from some indentation, but that can be fixed by the one who commits it
14:20:40ddaltono sorry about that. Once I get my linux box I will try to get that perfect. Being blind isn't an excuse I know.
14:21:08LinusNddalton: how come you doubled the syncsplash time from 2 to 4 seconds?
14:25:51ddaltonLinusN: so there was enough time for the voice to finish talking. You can change it back and test if you want. I am not sure if that is going to be excepted will it? Isn't 4 seconds a bit long?
14:26:16LinusN4 seconds is a very long time for a synchsplash
14:26:53LinusNperhaps use 2 seconds when voice is off?
14:26:55 Quit datasleep (Connection timed out)
14:27:19ddaltonok I will have a look at that tomorrow
14:27:28ddaltonis 4 seconds ok for when voice is on?
14:28:04LinusNwell, if it takes that long for the voice to finish, yes
14:29:44LinusNsomething is not right in the syncsplash code
14:30:19LinusNah, never mind

14:37:20LinusNthere is no support for voice in the plugins

14:40:49pixelmasomeone started to write a talking sudoku but unfortunately IIRC he didn't post something to the tracker
14:40:53LinusNbut we really need to find a good approach for voice in plugins in general
14:41:01Nico_Pbluebrother: only thing I know is that it's in InstallTalkWindow::setDeviceSettings
14:41:09LinusNdelYsid: "half-hearted"?
14:41:23Nico_Pbluebrother: at least I'm almost sure of that
14:41:45delYsidLlorean: Sorry, I partly work in the accessibility field, I guess I have different standards :-)
14:41:53bluebrotherhmm. What have you selected for encoder / tts settings?
14:42:01Nico_Pbluebrother: nothing
14:42:05ddaltonWhy can't we just put the talk functions in plugin.h and then call them in our plugins?
14:42:16LinusNddalton: more or less, yes
14:42:20LloreandelYsid: Considering that nearly the full functionality of *Rockbox* is available, and it's more or less the commonly highly sight-dependent plugins that aren't, I still don't see it as half-hearted.
14:42:21bluebrotherdoes the crash happen if you select something in the settings first?
14:42:39ddaltonI was talking to stephane about this the guy who wrote p6159 and he was interested in making a stop watch plugin talk.
14:42:41bluebrotherI suspect this is caused by some empty config values ...
14:42:44LinusNddalton: but the voice files are created from the lang files, and plugins don't use them
14:42:54B4gderddalton: we can, but we need to deal with voice snippets for plugins in a sensible way so that we don't have to load snippest for 40 plugins unconditionally
14:43:31ddaltonSo could we rewrite the talk functions so it loads for example english-pluginname.voice?
14:43:35LloreanB4gder: Couldn't plugins have their own .voice files?
14:43:37LinusNdelYsid: please bear in mind that rockbox is in no way an accessibility project
14:43:44B4gderddalton / Llorean: yes!
14:43:44delYsidLlorean: dont get me wrong, its great that what works works, but if you (as me) depend on it as your sole way of output, you see it in a different light :-)
14:44:12LloreandelYsid: Really? What core functionality of playback are you finding difficult to use? Have you posted a feature request for it?
14:44:12delYsidI am a coder, I'd like to easily write myself a plugin that talsk to me. If that doesnt work, I feel its kind of not really there :-)
14:44:29Nico_Pbluebrother: I typed some things in the executable textboxes and now it doesn't crash
14:44:37LloreandelYsid: You have to remember, plugins often aren't maintained at all. It's not voice that's half-hearted, it's plugins in general.
14:44:49bluebrotherNico_P: ok, I'll try to use some better defaults.
14:45:02delYsidLlorean: ok, we can agree on that then :-)
14:45:02ddaltonIf I add the talk functions to plugin.h and then make it load a separate voice file and then could I just call the talk functions in my plugins?
14:45:03Nico_Pbluebrother: I think what's needed is a check
14:45:13bluebrotheryep, I think that too.
14:45:16ddaltonif I could I might have a go later on tomorrow
14:45:50Nico_Pbluebrother: when the crash occured, profile was ""
14:46:04LinusNddalton: the question is if we want separate voice files or not
14:46:15bluebrotherfunny think is that it doesn't crash for me −− I just get a "path to encoder is wrong" when trying to start generation.
14:46:18Nico_Pbluebrother: (I added a debug output right after line 136)
14:46:31LloreandelYsid: But part of the problem is that it's entirely a volunteer effort. So if it's half-hearted, it's because the people who actually want it aren't doing it, more than anything. :)
14:46:50ddaltonLinusN: the voice file will be very big if it is just one. If you just want one for all the plugins my guess it would be over 4 mb.
14:47:01LloreandelYsid: That being said, I'm sure plenty of people would like voice in plugins where it's suitable.
14:47:22Nico_Pbluebrother: yes, funny, now my "executable" boxes are emty again but no crash
14:47:24Lloreanddalton: Many of the plugins are unusable even with voice, anyway.
14:47:24ddaltonanyway stuff like the text editor won't be able to talk.

14:48:44bluebrotherah. Interesting.
14:49:08Nico_Pbluebrother: it crashes somewhere in InstallTalkWindow::setDeviceSettings and prints "ASSERT failure in QSettings: "empty key", file io/qsettings.cpp, line 235"
14:49:20bluebrotheryou're on linux, right?
14:49:23Nico_Pyes
14:49:55Nico_Pthe empty key is most probably "ttspreset"
14:50:25bluebrotherhmm. An empty key should result in an empty string
14:50:57Nico_Pbluebrother: err no actually, the result of ttspreset being empty is that "profile" is an empty string
14:51:22Nico_Pbut then "devices->value(profile, tr("Invalid TTS profile!")).toString())" probably fails because of that

15:07:32B4gderlow_light: we'd just need a dump of the hidden partition then I guess to verify that it is made like the e200 ones
15:07:35Lloreanlow_light: Is the "hidden" partition simply an "empty" partition (you can see it from the PC if you look at the partition layout)?
15:08:11B4gdercoffee!

15:10:56low_lightLlorean: the hidden partition only shows up when you do Hold+rec+usb. Rockbox also sees it during disk_init().
15:12:21low_lightB4gder: I don't have a msd card to test...yet ;)
15:12:25Lloreanlow_light: On the e200 we can see two partitions on the Sansa device, one marked as empty, and writing to it directly (dd for example) is possible.
15:12:29fm2How can calculate the number of objects that fit in a buffer of size N? The buffer will then be used as an array. N / sizeof(obj) isn't correct since there might be element alignment. Should I use that as the start value and go down until &buf[n] ist still ok?
15:12:37fm2*can I
15:12:50LloreanSansapatcher injects the Rockbox bootloader into it, leaving the original firmware there, so that dual boot is possible without having to create a merged .mi4 file
15:13:47fm2I mean if &buf[n] is in the buffer and &buf[n+1] is not then n+1 elems fit in.
15:14:21 Quit x1jmp (Remote closed the connection)
15:14:41fm2This should take the alignments into account. Or are there other caveats?
15:16:11low_lightLlorean: it's most likely the same as the e200. I will dump the partition for others to examine.
15:16:47DerPapstnice work low_light :)
15:17:33Lloreanlow_light: It sounds like you use what we call "recovery mode" on the e200. A 16mb fake partition that you can copy a .mi4 or bootloader to (or an empty sansa.fmt file if you wish to reformat) and have it update the 'firmware partition' or flash.
15:17:47low_lightdual boot would be nice...it's a pain to copy the OF back to update rockbox
15:17:59LinusNfm2: sizeof(obj) includes alignment
15:19:34fm2LinusN: so just buf_size / sizeof(...) should be enough?
15:19:43LinusNyes

15:24:17low_lightB4gder: there must be different mi4 keys for the c200. I had to update to the latest OF bootloader to get it to accept the Rockbox bootloader.
15:25:26low_lightB4gder: and Rockbox and mi4code won' t decrypt the newest OF firmware.
15:26:14bluebrotherLinusN: regarding the crash you mentioned yesterday, do you need to use a proxy for connecting to the net?

15:30:43bluebrotherhmm. I have the impression that it's related.

15:33:40low_lightHowever the c200 series is also at Target and Wal-mart for probably cheaper

16:04:32LloreanLinusN, Bagder_: There's some debate on whether flyspray #6920 should go in. Markun seems to be left alone in objecting (other Gigabeat devs did in the past, but they've wandered off).
16:04:33LinusNit also seems like people don't expect the information to be correct either
16:05:12elinenbe_workif you go to the wiki page about rockbox mentions... every one says how it looks awful at first. There really is no reason to use the recorder default on all players. Especially something like the gigabeat or ipod video.
16:05:27LloreanI want to commit the patch, as I think it both improves one-handed use (well, one-thumb use) and at the same time brings the navigation function more similar to targets with equivalent face buttons. The only real reason for keeping it, afaik, is "it's more familiar to those who used the OF"
16:05:58LinusNLlorean: i agree with you, but only because i never used the gigabeat OF

16:07:36LinusNelinenbe_work: i agree about the default theme
16:08:03LloreanIsn't there a patch to set iCatcher as default?
16:08:57XavierGrI think there is one that linuxstb made
16:08:58***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
16:08:58linuxstbLlorean: Yes, I made one months ago (about 3 default-theme debates ago)
16:09:03LinusNthe only issue would be if the user hasn't installed the font pack
16:09:16LloreanLinusN: We can include the iCatcher font with the official SVN build perhaps?
16:09:24XavierGroh and yes I agree that 6920 should be commited for consistency reasons
16:09:30 Part rogelio ("Kopete 0.12.4 : http://kopete.kde.org")
16:09:58linuxstbLlorean: That's going to need build-system tweaking. It will also be target-dependent...
16:10:11LinusNLlorean: i believe there are still many places where the sysfont is expected to be 8 pixels tall, and also fixed width
16:10:22LloreanLinusN: I didn't mean to replace the sysfont.
16:10:25bluebrotherLlorean: why not move all themes to an extras package which includes the fonts as well?
16:10:39LloreanLinusN: Just have a more minimal selection of "Rockbox core fonts" that go with every build.
16:10:45LinusNah, of course
16:10:46LloreanThen maybe add some more of Rasher's fonts to the fonts extras package.
16:10:56 Join freqmod [0] (n=freqmod@m072g.studby.ntnu.no)
16:10:56linuxstbbluebrother: That makes it even harder for us to set a default theme. If Rockbox is booted without the theme/font pack, it will reset itself to the default.
16:11:01Lloreanbluebrother: We still need one default theme, though, and its "necessary" font(s)
16:11:31bluebrotherwell, how about a way to set some sensible defaults using rbutil?
16:11:32LinusNbesides, i'm not really fond of the icatcher theme
16:11:55LinusNi'd like a more "mainstream" look for the icons
16:11:58bluebrotheri.e. provide some "general ipod user" profile and make that require the extras package

16:13:29*linuxstb predicts that this conversation will end up with people not liking iCatcher enough to make it the default
16:13:35elinenbe_workLlorean: agreed. I think this should be the default theme: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/pub/Main/WpsIpod5g/Night.png (hehe)
16:14:04Lloreanlinuxstb: I'm the one who suggested it should be default right now. I'm pretty sure I'm the only person here who actively dislikes it, aren't I?
16:14:16XavierGrpoint is that we will never agree on the default, so there must be a process of picking up one
16:14:26LloreanLinusN: There's a color version of our iconset in the wiki, I believe. They're still tiny, but a wee bit nicer looking
16:14:35LloreanLinusN: There's also ports of tango and other icon themes in various sizes that look very nice.
16:15:39LinusNyeah, but we still lack a mechanism for customizing the status bar

16:19:25webguest44yes i did
16:19:34webguest44it just states unkown device
16:19:37linuxstbwebguest44: You need to start the sansa with the original firmware in order for usb transfers to work - Rockbox doesn't implement usb yet.

16:28:32BigBambiWhat is different?
16:28:36LloreanYou put "Pause" on the power button, I put it on 'A' which is nominally the 'Play' button anyway
16:28:55LloreanOr, maybe not you, whoever last synced it at least
16:28:58*amiconn notices the c250 'ladies and gentlemen' mail :)
16:29:29LloreanBigBambi: Power is still "Stop", "Select" leaves the WPS, and "A" pauses playback.
16:29:39BigBambiThat's how I had it
16:29:48BigBambiMaybe the last person to sync it changed it
16:29:58BigBambiBit odd that
16:30:06BigBambiAll I did was swap A and select
16:30:09LloreanThe first version of the patch shows a swapping of Power and Select, rather than A and Select.
16:30:20LloreanI think the last person to to sync it reverted it to that.
16:30:25BigBambiAha
16:30:43BigBambiI started like that then changed through other button changes and discussion
16:30:46LloreanEither way, it's A and Select
16:30:57BigBambiSo I think what you have put in is what I wanted (and all bar mau
16:31:02LloreanAnd the manual is updated to reflect this.

17:11:16Llorean`sam`: My first suggestion is to use espeak with the mbrola voices
17:11:47LloreanIf you can't get that working, espeak on its own tends to offer a somewhat metallic, but well enunciated and pronounced voice, while festival sounds a bit more human but seems to have pronunciation problems (to me)

17:13:04`sam`i was just wondering if festival was slow when used in rockbox also, because sometimes it takes a few seconds
17:13:36Llorean`sam`: It doesn't matter which you use on the PC, you create pre-recorded voices for Rockbox, so speed is always equal

17:58:56AlexMaxHi, I'm having a problem with my installation of Rockbox on my 30G ipod video. I was playing music today and I cut the thing off before I went into a meeting. When I got out of the meeting, I tried to cut it on, but with no results. I got home, and have the thing plugged in for about 10 minutes now and there's still no signs of life. Did I just brick my ipod?
17:58:57GunrunI mean put the bootloader on
17:58:59Gunrunnot flashing it
17:59:07LloreanGunrun: And you're using an official build, not a modified one from somewhere?
17:59:12linuxstbGunrun: You installed the bootloader by running ipodpatcher.exe and then selecting "i" for install ?

17:59:27sbeh[sansapatcher] Hi, I would like to build sansapatcher on my own, but it needs a .mi4-file, the files from http://daniel.haxx.se/sansa/mi4.html are too old, my firmware is 1.02.18E, how can i create a newer .mi4-file?
17:59:28Gunrunno, I had tried iPodLinux yesterday
17:59:32Gunrunand that gave me a bootloader

18:01:29LloreanJust follow the Rockbox install instructions in the manual, and it'll replace it.

18:01:42sbehlinuxstb: ah ok, why do they all have to same name?
18:01:50sbehlinuxstb: and is this bootloader the uptodate-version?
18:02:37linuxstbsbeh: It's the latest released version, yes. It's not recommended to use untested (i.e. svn) bootloader (not even developers do), but you could build it yourself from svn if you really wanted to.
18:02:56sbehlinuxstb: ok.
18:03:52linuxstbOut of curiousity, is there a reason you want to build sansapatcher yourself?
18:04:03Gunrunlinuxstb same issue
18:04:13sbehlinuxstb: i'm on freebsd
18:04:25linuxstbsbeh: OK - that's a good reason...
18:05:08krazykitsansapatcher won't work on freebsd's linux-compatability thing?
18:05:10linuxstbI'm not sure how well tested it is on freebsd, but it _should_ be OK.
18:05:36sbehkrazykit: the code has parts for freebsd
18:05:46krazykitah.
18:05:52sbehlinuxstb: I did it already earlier, it works great :P
18:06:45linuxstbThat's good - it's based on ipodpatcher (a very similar utility for ipods), and someone tested ipodpatcher on freebsd, so that's why it's OK.

19:06:13amiconnThe 'USB device not recognised' problem should be fixed asap imo
19:07:46Gunrunits probably a windows side bug
19:07:51 Part NicoP
19:07:52amiconnnope
19:07:57amiconnIt's a rockbox bug
19:08:32Lloreanamiconn: With the existing USB code, couldn't we have it connect to the PC and remain inactive?
19:08:41LloreanWhen menu is held, that is.
19:08:55amiconnFixing that bug is possible without using the usb stack at all
19:09:07amiconnCurrently, we enable the usb controller just enough to detect usb
19:09:44amiconnHowever, if we detect usb and USB_POWER_BUTTON is held, we should *deactivate* the controller until unplug
19:09:58LloreanCan we detect unplug while it's inactive?
19:10:03amiconnUnplug can be detected via GPIO, without using the controller
19:10:10LloreanAaah
19:10:14LloreanThat'd probably fix the retry-issue too
19:10:22amiconnThe controller is only needed to detect USB power only vs. real USB port
19:10:33LloreanAh
19:10:34 Quit jeeger_ (Read error: 113 (No route to host))
19:11:02amiconnAnd we could also save power by not activating the USB controller at boot, but only if we detect a plug-in via GPIO
19:11:11LloreanSounds like a good idea too
19:11:34 Join petur [0] (n=petur@rockbox/developer/petur)
19:15:24amiconnI.e. (controller inactive) -> GPIO USB plug-in detect -> USB_POWER_BUTTON held ? just go to USB charging : (enable controller -> decected true USB ? go to USB mode : just go to USB charging)
19:15:26*linuxstb just realised why austriancoder could delete the usb_device_init code on the Sansa - it's run from the rockbox bootloader (but only for Sansa).
19:15:52linuxstbamiconn: I'll have a go at that now.
19:16:27amiconnAnd if we find the USB controller clock source bit in DEV_EN, we could save more power...
19:17:04amiconnOh, in the last 'USB charging' case I forgot the (deactivate controller) step
19:17:57amiconnThat should fix several issues at once. (1) 'USB device not recognised' (2) save power (3) remove the need to hold MENU for extended times

19:27:47Soaphas the usb controller always (as old as the PP ports) been enabled "just enough to detect USB", or is that a more modern developement?
19:28:22SoapI guess what I'm really asking is... "After said USB changes are made - is there believed to be enough change in power consumption to warrant another round of battery_bench tests?"
19:28:32LloreanSoap: I believe that was when we started differentiating between USB and wall-power
19:28:39linuxstbIt's relatively recent - about 6 months or so ago.
19:29:17SoapThat is when (what LL said) I assumed it happened, but I didn't want to assume...

20:48:33GodEater_there's a lot to Rockbox. It can take a while to learn it all.
20:48:46Gunrunby the way I saw it advertised somewhere that rockbox did gapless playback? does it actually have it or does it just have crossfade?
20:49:15GodEater_no it does gapless too
20:49:32GodEater_you'll have to turn off crossfade to get it of course
20:49:57Gunrunhmm I can't find the word gapless anywhere in the manual
20:50:08GodEater_Gunrun: that's because it's not optional
20:50:13petur:)
20:50:24GodEater_it's ALWAYS there, you just can't hear it if you're crossfading...
20:50:26Gunrunso I turn off crossfade and gapless automatically comes on?
20:50:27Gunrunright
20:50:30GodEater_yep
20:50:41peturif you do not like gapless, use the original firmware :p
20:50:50Gunrunwell the original firmware has gapless too
20:50:56GunrunI like gapless playback anyway
20:51:19Gunrunanyway I think rockbox is going to move to the top of the bootloader now I know it has gapless playback
20:51:24GodEater_for true gapless mp3 playback, you need to use LAME as your encoder and use its gapless option when encoding
20:51:42LloreanGodEater_ Not quite
20:51:42GodEater_vorbis and flac don't matter in that respect
20:51:47GodEater_Llorean: no?
20:51:49LloreanLAME automatically adds the gapless info, I thought
20:52:06peturrecent LAME versions IIRC
20:52:11GodEater_Llorean: how can it ? you have to make sure it encodes the tracks in the right order I thought ?
20:52:21LloreanThe gapless option is for actually splitting at frame ends rather than where the track ends, so it can play gaplessly even on players that don't recognize the LAME tags
20:53:06LloreanGodEater_: Nope. For Rockbox gapless, we use the LAME tags. Which means any wav, when converted to an MP3, has extra silence at the end because of the MP3 weakness, but LAME knows it's there, and lets us know with a tag.
20:53:17LloreanSo we skip silence, but only the silence that MP3 adds due to its nature
20:53:45GodEater_I'm 0.0001% more knowledgable
20:54:11LloreanIf you use the gapless option, it actually splits in slightly different places, so that as long as you play the MP3s in order they'll be gapless, but if you play them out of order you'll get some problem bits where tracks are very slightly in the wrong file
20:54:12peturso that makes 2.0001% now :p
20:54:28GodEater_petur: :P
20:54:41LloreanSo the gapless option is necessary for say, the Archoses, but not really ideal for the other players.
20:54:49GodEater_petur: you're generous to rate me that highly :)
20:54:51LloreanJust using a current version of LAME is good enough there. :)
20:55:02*petur blames the beer
20:55:16LloreanAssuming I understand the whole situation properly, but I *think* I do.
20:55:23GodEater_Llorean: is that documented somewhere, because I've converted numerous dance albums now using that gapless option in the mistaken belief it was required :)
20:55:57LloreanGodEater_: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/GaplessHowTo
20:56:46GodEater_I must have stupidly read the Archos bit
20:56:51GodEater_what a dumbass
20:57:16LloreanWell, I'm not sure when the "correct" information was added for swcodec
20:57:36LloreanI believe now the same holds true to iTunes encoded AAC (they have similar tags to LAME MP3) but I'm not sure yet.
20:57:57LloreanI just stick to either flac or vorbis if I need gapless. :)
20:58:19*petur has no issues with mp3 gapless
20:58:29GodEater_nor me
20:58:45GodEater_I just appear to have taken steps which were unnecessary
20:58:47LloreanWell, I just stick to flac or vorbis anyway. ;)
20:58:55GodEater_March this year is when it was clarified it seems
20:59:04GodEater_I think I read it a while before that

21:03:56sansauserHey I just wanted to thank you for rockbox on my sansa e260, running awesomely. I am very glad about that I can set the volume lower than with the official firmware, because i mostly use my mp3 player to sleep. I hope you get enough response from sansa users!

21:06:28desowinyea, sansa OF firmware is crap, especially when it comes to volume - normal and high and very limited range
21:09:49amiconnLlorean: The -nogap option isn't needed for swcodec, but it doesn't hurt either (unless you can hear the track start being off by max. +/- 26 msec
21:10:02Gunrunis it just me or can my iPod go much much louder with this firmware?
21:10:30amiconnAnd btw, while the lame tag specifies where the track ends exactly within the last frame, the rest of that frame is not silence if you play it
21:10:33Lloreanamiconn: Which is pretty unlikely in nearly all cases.
21:10:45LloreanThe hearing the +/- 26 that is
21:11:29*amiconn does all gapless album mp3 encoding with -nogap, in order to have it compatible with both hwcodec and swcodec
21:13:30amiconnAnd afaik AAC does have the same framing problem (so much for the "advancedness")
21:14:24Lloreanamiconn: Yeah, that's why iTunes uses gapless tags similar to LAME iiuc.
21:14:49amiconnvorbis and wma don't have that problem

21:34:51hachiI'm having troubles getting my ipod to charge with rockbox... If I supply Vcc and Ground on the USB lines, leave the D+ and D- lines unconnected, rockbox seems to ignore the power and not charge the battery
21:35:23hachiyeah, still draining from the battery
21:35:34hachibut if I reboot into the apple firmware, it charges just fine
21:38:37hachiif I connect D+ and D-, then for a moment I get to see the charging status flash into rockbox, and then I'm rebooting into disk mode... if I hold down menu for a while, it prevents the data line setups, but if I ever exit from that screen it sets up the data lines the next time the host OS probes them
21:38:59hachiwhich as far as I can tell is something linux likes to retry
21:39:51hcsI haven't played with things at the wire level, but I find that chargers that don't trigger disk mode don't show as charging, either
