00:06:32preglowbut do we want to not remap ram?
00:06:57 Join sarixe [0] (n=sarixe@ool-435403e9.dyn.optonline.net)
00:07:17amiconnDepends. For just having the vector table where it should be, both methods should be equal
00:07:22preglowdeed
00:08:01amiconnHowever, if we want to call ROM routines, remapping doesn't work (unless the called routines are relocatable)
00:08:18preglowwell, doesn't both bl and retailos remap?
00:08:51amiconnOF remaps, but iiuc it doesn't remap the whole ram
00:10:29 Quit obo ("bye")
00:10:46amiconnI think so because the OF references variables at 0x1xxxxxxx, which wouldn't be possible when all ram is remapped
00:11:00preglowhrm
00:11:06preglowi wish i knew how those remap regs worked
00:11:36amiconn(unless both ida and objdump err on that addresses)
00:11:50 Join BigMac [0] (n=mike@c-71-234-95-131.hsd1.ct.comcast.net)
00:12:49amiconnI don't think we want to call ROM routines though. Doing so would probably cause gpl problems
00:13:10amiconnThe OF, however, does use rom routines, at least on 1st/2nd gen
00:13:59preglowgpl problems?`why?
00:14:22preglowthat's like gpl programs not being able to call the bios on pcs
00:14:49amiconnWell, perhaps not.
00:14:51preglowi don't think we want to call rom routines either, but not for gpl
00:15:08preglowthe less stuff we depend on, the better
00:15:22amiconnThe exception vector remapping might still be interesting. We could map the exception vectors to iram.
00:15:39preglowwould be cool having them at the start of iram
00:15:58amiconn(now if we knew whether PP5002 can do the same thing...)
00:16:12Bagderhttp://daniel.haxx.se/blog/2007/09/07/rockbox-build-downloads-aug-2007/
00:18:56preglowno doubt where most of our users are, then...
00:19:01*preglow curses portalplayer
00:19:05Bagderindeed not
00:19:13preglowwe could be so much cooler with just a wee bit of help :/
00:19:26Bagder4 PP targets at the top...
00:19:51amiconnBah
00:20:02Bagderthose four is >60% of all downloads
00:20:19amiconnSomehow that sheds a light on those annoying album art requests

00:24:25 Quit davina ("xchat on Ubuntu 7.04")
00:24:50amiconnpreglow: I have nothing against good looking stuff, if it provides good functionality as well
00:25:14bluebrotherwasn't the reason for those aa-requests obvious anyway?
00:25:18amiconnIn that respect, ipods are inferior to several other targets I own... even much older ones
00:28:26amiconnbluebrother: Not to me...

00:28:44Bagderseparating them on main architecture is interesting
00:28:52Bagder79.7% PP
00:29:05Bagder12.9% coldfire
00:29:43amiconnHence still 7.4% SH1
00:29:53Bagderno...
00:29:56Bagder4.3% samsung
00:30:00Bagder2.8% sh1
00:30:00amiconnah
00:30:05amiconnForgot samsung
00:30:18*amiconn thought arm, not PP
00:30:19bluebrotherwhat's samsung? The gigabeat?
00:30:23Bagderyes
00:30:24amiconnyes
00:30:37bluebrotherok ...
00:30:51skillfulcodrHi everyone, Just got a sansa e280 and put rockbox on it. When I plug the sansa in to a usb port while running rockbox I don't get a drive in windows like i do while running the sansa firmware
00:30:52delYsidHmm, can I tell rockbox to shutdown after a certain period of time (sleep timer)?
00:31:10Bagderskillfulcodr: boot the original firmware (OF) for that
00:31:27skillfulcodrok, thanks, thought that might be the answer
00:31:33amiconnWith the recorder v1 the most downloaded SH1 target, above 1 POP and 2 coldfire targets
00:31:41amiconns/POP/PP/
00:31:53bluebrotherdelYsid: yes.
00:32:11amiconn(the 1 PP isn't entirely fair as we don't provide a bootloader for it yet)
00:32:16bluebrothersystem / sleep timer
00:32:43Bagderkind of weird that 1g2g was downloaded 600 times...
00:32:59delYsidbluebrother: thanks.
00:33:45peturstill a lot of h300 users...
00:33:47 Quit hcs ("Leaving.")
00:33:56*bluebrother hugs h120
00:34:25*preglow joins in the hugging
00:34:29*BigBambi too
00:34:45linuxstbI would guess a lot of h300 users would use unofficial builds from MR though. (maybe H10 as well)
00:34:58Bagderthat goes for sansa users too
00:35:03BigBambiI know I haven't updated my H100 is ages though as it is already so stable
00:35:12bluebrotherand how about unsupported builds for the PP front?
00:35:18*amiconn also prefers his H180 (or even the recorder v1) over the ipods
00:35:39preglowi'd take my h120 over the nano any day
00:35:54BigBambiI prefer both the H140 and F60 I have over any iPod
00:36:06amiconnBagder: I was about to say that soeone interested in 1g/2g could build the bootloader himself, but then he'd probably also build rockbox itself...
00:36:15amiconnSo it's really rather strange
00:37:45 Part skillfulcodr
00:38:35pixelmathere were people showing interest in the forums but they didn't seem to be able to build the bootloader for themselves yet (didn't really bother to set up a build envionment if I read correctly)
00:39:05amiconnWeird. Lack of stability is still my biggest annoyance with rockbox on swcodec, although it looks like nls' latest talk commit improved things
00:39:42bluebrotherwell, do we want to work towards a 3.0 release for CF targets?
00:39:59pixelmaso they downloaded the build and got stuck when ipodpatcher or rbutil wasn't able to install the bootloader
00:40:03amiconnI'd rather want to know the status of MoB...
00:40:14Bagderbluebrother: only if they reach 13% ;-P
00:41:01amiconnBagder: Did you filter out multiple downloads from the same ip for the stats?
00:41:34amiconnAnd are these stats aggregated across all mirrors?
00:41:34*bluebrother goes setting up a cron job to regularly download all CF builds

00:41:47Bagderamiconn: oh no, this is a raw counter from awstats
00:41:58BagderI bet many people have downloaded multiple times
00:42:15Migit109do .wav files play in rockbox or do i need to re-encode them
00:42:22bluebrotherthey play
00:42:27Bagderamiconn: read the page, this is the build server not the download one so there are no mirrors counted
00:42:40linuxstbBagder: So just the current builds?
00:42:43bluebrothersee http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/SoundCodecs
00:42:44Bagderyes
00:43:15BagderI have no real stats for the download mirrors
00:43:34amiconnHmm, the dailies (including mirrors) would also be interesting
00:43:40Migit109oh my bad i ment .wma files, sorry

00:44:10bluebrotheryou can't seek in the files though
00:44:18Migit109because i selected it and played it and it only does audio no video
00:44:31bluebrotherRockbox is an _audio_ player
00:44:54*bluebrother slaps forehead
00:44:55linuxstbYou mean wmv files then?
00:45:10Migit109ya , sorry im out of it today
00:45:22bluebrotherwma - windows media audio, wmv - windows media video
00:45:35Migit109ya wmv
00:45:47bluebrotherno. Only mpeg2 video is supported.
00:45:55linuxstbYou've answered your own question - Rockbox will play the audio only...
00:46:27Migit109what are mpeg(two) formats just .mpg?
00:46:50linuxstbSee http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/PluginMpegplayer
00:49:19einhirnPlease tell me where the Simulator build of Archos Recoder implements track changes (where would I apply Replaygain settings?) I want to do some debugging in Simulator first, before I start on the real thing again ;)
00:50:14amiconnThe s
00:50:40amiconnThe hwcodec sims don't simulate playback. Just wps display + the ability to skip
00:51:49einhirnI just need some place to call my routines and update the Trackgain etc. values
00:52:07einhirnSo skipping is sufficient

01:55:11linuxstbI think it's the mime-type problem - the download servers send "ipodpatcher" as text/plain so browsers try and display it.

02:49:36LambdaCalculus37jhulst: I was wondering... since we both have Creative devices in our hands that use the MTP protocol to communicate with the PC, how did you read the filesystem on your device?
02:49:50CtcpIgnored 1 channel CTCP requests in 0 seconds at the last flood
02:49:50*LambdaCalculus37 might know what the answer is
02:50:14*jhulst is sorry to tell LambdaCalculus37 the answer
02:50:35jhulstSomeone bought a hard drive adapter and tore it apart
02:51:10LambdaCalculus37jhulst: Looks like I may have to do the same thing.
02:51:20LambdaCalculus37Know anywhere where I can get get one for a good price?
02:51:45jhulstLambdaCalculus37: What kind of a hard drive? There are two different kinds in the ZVM, both with different connectors
02:51:50LloreanAny device with software USB (UMS or MTP) can pretty much arbitrarily prevent PC-side access to any part of the disk it wants.
02:51:59eigma"Newer libgphoto2 versions also support Media Transfer Protocol (MTP) based media player ..." [http://www.gphoto.org/]
02:52:13***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
02:52:22jhulsteigma: That just allows transfers of songs, not seeing the filesystem
02:52:40eigmaah, I understand
02:52:42jhulsteigma: Basically you only see what they want you to see
02:52:46LambdaCalculus37jhulst: The one in the Dell DJ is a 44-pin connector.
02:52:53*courtc sees that his documentation might actually be useful... yay!
02:53:45*eigma wonders if there's some backdoor to the software MTP implementation that allows "raw-er" access.
02:53:54eigmahas anybody dumped and started reversing the firmware?
02:54:01LambdaCalculus37eigma: On the Dell DJ?
02:54:04eigmayes
02:54:09*jhulst spent lots of time trying to find a backdoor
02:54:10eigmaor perhaps a second config in the USB descriptors
02:54:22LambdaCalculus37I did post a firmware upgrade for the Dell DJ on the wiki page for it.
02:54:35LambdaCalculus37And the results of lsusb -v.
02:54:37jhulstLambdaCalculus37: So it's an IDE drive?

03:01:41LambdaCalculus37Ahhh, not bad!
03:01:44jhulstLambdaCalculus37: It's says it's 40 pin though
03:02:03jhulstI think it depends on who the manufacturer of the drive is as well
03:03:18LambdaCalculus37jhulst: Hitachi TravelStar.
03:03:31LambdaCalculus37Horizontally aligned.
03:04:02LambdaCalculus37Model HTC424015F7AT00.
03:04:23LambdaCalculus37This one is a loose drive I got from another Dell DJ owner I know.
03:05:42jhulstLambdaCalculus37: In the ZVM, we had two different types of hard drives, someone ordered the wrong adapter assuming his was like everyone else's and now he's stuck
03:06:07LambdaCalculus37jhulst: I read about that. Creative used both 50-pin and ZIF drives, right?
03:08:32jhulstLambdaCalculus37: correct
03:10:38LambdaCalculus37jhulst: I have to wait for another check, but I'll most definitely buy one of these adapters and see if I can read at least the spare hard drive.
03:12:38LambdaCalculus37Actually, I'll just get that set with the 1.8" and 2.5" adapters. :)
03:14:51jhulstLambdaCalculus37: Just as a disclaimer, I know nothing about that company, just was one we found that was reasonably priced

04:31:31Nimdaeso it looks like the new ipod classic uses new hardware
04:31:50Nimdaebecause i seriously doubt the 5g is capable of playing back hi def
04:31:50hcsdoh
04:32:16Nimdaeor has component video
04:32:59Nimdaeoh well, saves me money...if it doesn't run rockbox, i'll pass ;) maybe i'll just try to grab a hard drive and stick it in my 5g
04:33:30LambdaCalculus37Nimdae: the iPod video can play MPEG4 video up to 2.5 Mbit/S, and H.264 up to 1.5 Mbit/S.
04:33:51LambdaCalculus37I don't think it can use component, either.
04:34:02LambdaCalculus37Besides that I just have S-video for it.
04:34:46Nimdae5g does svideo, new ipods use component, i dunno the max resolution the 5g will handle, but the 6g can do 480p

04:36:30Nimdaeneed new front bezel because mine is cracked, heh
04:36:56Nimdaei have a rhinoskin case holding my ipod together
04:37:08LambdaCalculus37Nimade: Try these guys for new parts: http://www.ifixit.com
04:37:18Chrononamiconn: I hear you are interested in an iPod Nano that suffers from buggy playback.
04:37:32Nimdaei checked them about a week ago, but given recent news, things might have changed
04:37:47Soap5G can do 480p
04:38:08SoapSVCD is 480p is it not?
04:38:09Nimdaethe ipod touch is reported to only do 480i
04:38:15Soapnot much of a measure. ;)
04:38:22Nimdaetrue
04:38:40LambdaCalculus37Soap: SVCD... Super VCD, right?
04:38:53Soapyes
04:39:12LambdaCalculus37Soap: SVCD can do 480x480 in NTSC and 480x756 in PAL/SECAM.
04:39:34Soapno to your PAL y

04:40:00LambdaCalculus37Soap: Oops... 480x576.
04:40:25Nimdaeyeah, ifixit still only has the thicker drives outside of the 30gb drive
04:40:40LambdaCalculus37Soap: I'm under the weather, tired, drinking coffee that I can still see through... and still trying to research a Dell DJ.
04:41:17LambdaCalculus37Soap: And I should be sleeping. But I'm too crazy to. :)
04:43:31ChrononI have a Nano that suffers from buggy playback. Llorean suggested on the forums that a developer might be interested in taking a look at it.
04:44:23ChrononIf anyone is interested they can leave me a PM on the forums.
04:44:40NimdaeChronon: might get better luck posting this info on the forum
04:45:12ChrononHeh. Llorean suggested I come here and talk about it.
04:45:16LambdaCalculus37Soap: Looks like SVCD can also display up to 704x480 in NTSC and 704x576 in PAL.
04:45:57LambdaCalculus37Nimdae: The site's still out.
04:46:02Nimdaedang
04:46:33Nimdaewell, considering the new ipods are being marketed with the capability, i'm suspecting new hardware
04:46:53Nimdaei'm curious how scratch resistant the new all metal cover is
04:48:04LambdaCalculus37Nimdae: Probably at the same level as the mini and nano 2G.
04:48:24Nimdaei've never owned one so i've never had interested in finding out
04:48:29Nimdaeguess i could go read, heh
04:48:38LambdaCalculus37I'm going to save some money and pick up one... then tear it open and start drawing schematics when I get home. :)
04:49:21Nimdaei wouldn't mind picking up a 8gb nano if rockbox ran on it
04:49:39Nimdaei'm not a big fan of the ipod interface tbh
04:50:07LambdaCalculus37Nimdae: I feel bad that my brother's stuck with a nano 2G.
04:50:19LambdaCalculus37Maybe I should buy him a Sansa e280 for Xmas.
04:50:43Nimdaewell, i showed my housemate rockbox and that's made him want an ipod, but he wants a nano 2g
04:51:07LambdaCalculus37I showed several co-workers what Rockbox can do.
04:51:18LambdaCalculus37I ended up assisting with now ten installations.

04:52:20LambdaCalculus37Anyway, eight of the installations I did were iPod videos.
04:52:45LambdaCalculus37Looks like we really do have a large population of Rockboxers with iPods.
04:53:02LambdaCalculus37But how many of them are actually developers, or have any programming experience?
04:53:14Nimdaei have programming experience, but not with C
04:53:23Nimdaemostly scripting, and some java
04:53:26SoapThe world has a large population of iPod owners. It isn't a suprise.
04:53:31LambdaCalculus37I have some C knowledge.
04:53:38Nimdaei've hacked C
04:53:43Nimdaebut i'd never trust my C coding
04:53:45LambdaCalculus37Soap: It's that advertising.
04:54:04Nimdaeyup, all in the advertising, and apple is good at it
04:54:09LambdaCalculus37Yet I only have one because it was a Xmas gift.
04:54:09SoapMust be. People are sheep who only buy what they are told to buy.
04:54:26LambdaCalculus37Soap: And when to bleat, it seems. :/
04:54:34Nimdaei got mine for half price from a co-worker who was upgrading to the then new 80gb ipod
04:54:53LambdaCalculus37Nimdae: You know what I wanted? The iAUDIO X5!
04:55:03Nimdaeoh yeah, i was saving up for one
04:55:04Nimdaeheh
04:55:07LambdaCalculus37Or an iriver H340!
04:55:16Nimdaei specifically wanted the x5
04:55:19LambdaCalculus37Now THAT'S a real man's DAP! :)
04:55:20Nimdaebecause it supports ogg
04:55:43LambdaCalculus37But with Rockbox, we have pretty much every file format we want/need.
04:56:07LambdaCalculus37Well, except for tracker formats, but we have a patch for that in Flyspray. :)
04:56:20Nimdaei just wish rockbox could do java, it'd drive me to learn java ME
04:57:09*jhMikeS thinks all this is funny because when informed that his sister wanted to get him an iPod for Xmas, the response was "Hooooold it! Better let me look for something better." First DAP: x5
04:57:24LambdaCalculus37Nimdae: Forget Java. How about Perl? Search for music using regular expressions! :D
04:57:33Nimdaelol
04:57:39Nimdaeyou can't do that already?
04:57:45Nimdaei thought there was a way with the db

08:08:31amiconnYeah, we're not ipl
08:08:45scorcheJdgordon: scorche.cleansoap.org/dumptruck/part.bin
08:09:07amiconnMaybe we should just release a 1st/2nd gen bootloader, even with the shutdown issue still unsolved?
08:09:21scorchewhat is the issue?
08:09:27amiconnI mean, rockbox is safe to use on those, just it can't be shut down (same as ipl)
08:09:54Guest5231so i'm assuming i probably did something wrong between the steps?
08:10:14amiconnI know how to do suspend, but it requires work on the powermgmt code to implement per-thead shutdown handling with synchronisation (much like usb is handled)
08:10:29scorcheGuest5231: i did the exact same thing, and it loaded successfully
08:10:53scorcheGuest5231: it fades to white, then loads the OF, for me

08:11:57Guest5231that's odd
08:12:49amiconnscorche: Yes. Atm the poweroff button mapping does just reboot, so you hold Play to reboot, and when it starts booting, hold Menu until it says 'Loading original firmware'

08:13:31Guest5231thanks for looking into it scorche

09:07:36peturyes, some link went down right after the commit
09:07:39B4gderthere was some network problems tonight, that's for sure
09:07:42linuxstb_amiconn: rbutilqt should (if the rbutil.ini file is correct) already be able to install on the 1g/2g, so to release for that target, you just need to give one of the Swedes the bootloader-ipod1g2g.ipod file to put on the download server.
09:07:47advcomp2019hello B4gder
09:08:13linuxstb_amiconn: I'll then release a new ipodpatcher - but probably not until tomorrow at the earliest.
09:08:41linuxstb_amiconn: And it's no problem to update ipodpatcher again in the future if the bootloader needs changing for suspend.
09:09:47linuxstb_Are people still struggling to access rockbox.org? (it's still fine from London)

09:14:54scorchesee?!?!?: <Llorean> Since they're not quite mutually exclusive, but short-long makes the latter harder since you have to do short-wait-long
09:15:01linuxstb_Llorean: So am I (that was a monty python refererence)...
09:15:06amiconnlinuxstb: The bootloader doesn't need changing for suspend.
09:15:15Lloreanlinuxstb_: Now I feel bad that I missed it.
09:15:27amiconnBut maybe it makes sense to release a new set of bootloaders, as there are changes for several targets
09:15:30LloreanSpeaking of bootloaders, are we releasing a new Sansa one since the screen glitch fix needs it?
09:15:31linuxstb_amiconn: So your only worry is that the inconvenience of no sleep?
09:15:41linuxstb_I mean suspend.
09:15:43amiconnAt least the button combo messages are fixed for 3rd gen as well
09:16:20linuxstb_amiconn: So the 3g needs updating as well?
09:16:31Lloreanamiconn: Maybe we should work toward new bootloaders all around for the RButil release.

09:16:52LloreanAt least the Sansa, H100 and H300 have bootloader changes waiting in the wings too, and the latter two need some testing by those as can recover.
09:16:55linuxstb_Llorean: No need to wait for that IMO - just release as we can.
09:17:08amiconnlinuxstb: As, although it's not essential, just cosmetic
09:17:25Lloreanlinuxstb_: I didn't mean to wait for it, just try to get new versions for the H100, H300 and whatever else out there before it's out.
09:17:42linuxstb_Llorean: OK, then I agree. new h100/h300 bootloaders seem to be long overdue.
09:17:45amiconns/As/Yes/
09:18:22amiconnThe bootloader prints the button combos for reset+diskmode, which are wrong for 3rd gen in the released bootloader
09:18:25LloreanThe H300 one fixes the USB issue, right? And the H100 one allows us to upgrade the bootloader more safely in the future (no dependence on the OF, and recovery from bad flashes, iiuc?)
09:18:25Jdgordoncheers scorche, grabbing now

10:06:53woodensoulHey guys. I'm getting very short battery life on my brand new Sansa e280. Even with the OF I only got 8 to 9 hours of plaback with no skipping of songs, etc. Any thoughts?
10:07:20B4gderwoodensoul: my thought: you should get longer than so at least with the OF
10:07:21in-janeLlorean: ok, i have to test it by myself. but 10-15 is enough for me :-)
10:08:04Lloreanin-jane: Of course you can get much less if you play a lot of video, or games... anything that keeps the screen light on a lot.
10:08:38linuxstbtodkon: Have you tried re-initialising the database?
10:08:40woodensoulWell, I wasn't even using the player during the test. I just shuffled everthing on it and left it alone.
10:09:38woodensoulI've charged through USB in the OF until the charging icon indicates fully charged which seems to take at least 4 hours. I've also charged with a third party AC adapter that I bought.
10:09:59Lloreanlinuxstb: If RBUtilQT is ready enough, perhaps we should throw one more page into the mix, replacing "Current" with "Download" which just has the utility and basic use instructions, and a link to the manuals for further reading or manual installation.
10:10:22Lloreanwoodensoul: This is hardly the place to seek support with the OF....
10:10:22todkonlinuxstb: nope
10:10:28todkonI'll try that, thanks
10:11:22woodensoulI said even with the OF, which means the Rockbox runtime is even less.
10:11:24linuxstbLlorean: I think RbUtilQT needs more documentation - either embedded or in the manual. For example, with ipod bootloader installs there are the issues of being root/administrator, maybe umounting the device or closing itunes, etc. I don't think it's at the stage where we can simply say "run rbutilqt" and nothing else.

10:13:45linuxstbI guess it's harsh to remove the link - I was hoping the file was actually hosted on the forums. Maybe worth adding a note to say that the official release should be in the next few days.
10:14:01Lloreanlinuxstb: Sounds like a good idea.
10:14:21pixelmaLlorean: http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=12173.msg94664#msg94664 - maybe put it into the unsupported build forum?

10:15:34woodensoulIt is possible that the battery is the only thing that is defective?

10:27:55B4gderyeah, that'd be neat
10:28:47LinusNthe iaudio x5 subpack is a real pain
10:28:49LloreanI've seen a few flash players like that, but they're almost universally ones that ought to be given out in cereal boxes.
10:29:01Zagorthe sansa express does. have we written off that as possible target?

10:29:28B4gderjust nobody poked on it (yet)
10:29:31Zagorok
10:29:47LloreanZagor: I have to say that's a pretty unrealistic image.
10:30:08B4gderit seems to be a PP based target
10:30:27B4gdersince it works with the same updater program like the other ones
10:30:30linuxstbB4gder: Sounds promising then...
10:30:52B4gderyes, a tempting one... ;-)
10:30:53linuxstbHmm, I wouldn't assume the same CPU just because Sansa have a unified updater...
10:31:07B4gderno, but its a hint
10:31:22B4gderit supports 4 players, the other 3 are PP
10:31:29linuxstbIf I was Sansa, I would just release one updater...
10:31:35linuxstbOr sandisk even...
10:31:46B4gderfor example, the m200 is not supported and it is not PP
10:31:51linuxstbSame principle as rbutilqt...
10:32:02linuxstbWas m200 an older device though?
10:32:07B4gderyes I think so
10:32:19pondlifeCould we drop the ..qt from RBUtil now the wx one has gone?
10:32:32linuxstbSame principle as rbutil...
10:32:41pondlife:)
10:32:43*B4gder tries to run the updater...

10:34:43Zagoryup
10:34:59linuxstbOr change it to say it happened?
10:35:01peturor move it up and schedule it for next week...
10:35:08B4gderargh, the updater doesn't reveal/download anything without a target inserted

10:46:19linuxstbAnd a 3D cover-art browser like Cover Flow...
10:46:24Zagori've been toying around with the idea of "transition plugins". i.e. pluggable code to handle transitions between different pages.
10:46:25preglowLlorean: orly?
10:46:28Lloreanpreglow: Yup
10:46:30LloreanLemme check
10:46:40LloreanZagor: That'd satisfy some peoples
10:46:49preglowindeed
10:46:50Zagoreither simply left-right scroll like the ipod fw, or whatever zoomy crap you can come up with
10:47:01preglowbut i don't think the code for it would be big enough to merit plugins

10:47:09preglowLlorean: thanks
10:47:17LinusNZagor: whatever you are smoking, i want some too :-)
10:47:25Zagorpreglow: the point with plugins would be to let it be choosable/hackable
10:47:27preglowhe's high on rockbox
10:47:39amiconnI wonder what all these "transition effect" crap is about. It only hampers quick operation

10:47:58LinusNamiconn: they are about looking cool
10:47:59linuxstbDidn't we recently reject (with a "no, thanks") a feature request for screen transition effects?
10:48:15Lloreanamiconn: Clearly while waiting for a disk to spinup for a folder change is too horrible, waiting for a fade effect is fine and dandy

10:49:09Lloreanpreglow: Apparently not a patch, I thought there had been one attached. =/
10:49:09preglowi don't see a point in antialiasing our current fonts...
10:49:47preglowi was more thinking bitmap fonts with an alpha channel
10:49:53preglowwill probably be dog-slow, but there you go
10:50:11LloreanWell, using sub-pixel hinting with our existing fonts probably won't be too bad.
10:50:14amiconnFont antialiasing would require alpha support, which would slow down font rendering by a factor of 10x +
10:50:32preglowLlorean: but why? we don't need sub-pixel accuracy
10:50:49amiconnMany OFs can cheat in that respect, as they only use a single font and fixed backgrounds
10:50:51linuxstbamiconn: I agree, but we also have targets (e.g. Gigabeat F, and even more so the Gigabeat S) with cpu cycles to burn...
10:51:42B4gderand burning cpu cycles is fun!
10:51:54Lloreanpreglow: Wouldn't it result in nicer looking fonts, without quite the same performance burden as anti-aliasing?
10:52:13B4gderenter the gigabeat-rockbox folding@home client
10:52:22scorche`even the Gigabeat S's transitions lag...
10:52:24***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
10:52:36preglowLlorean: it would depend heavily on the font, but i don't see a reason in offsetting our ordinary fonts by half a pixel just to make them looks blurrier
10:52:39linuxstbscorche`: Then they must be very poorly implemented...
10:53:03scorche`linuxstb: wouldnt surprise me...
10:53:11Zagorpreglow: get with the times, blurry is cool! ;)
10:53:15amiconnLlorean: For font anti-aliasing, you do need alpha support
10:53:25amiconnThere's no way around that
10:53:26linuxstbI can't imagine why a 500+MHz CPU should struggle to animate a 320x240 LCD.
10:53:31B4gdernot if the background is solid ;-)
10:53:37Lloreanpreglow: So make it a configurable option (or a by-font option). Some people will want it, and wouldn't it only double the font size from 1bpp to 2bpp?
10:53:46Lloreanamiconn: Sub-pixel rendering isn't font-antialiasing though.
10:54:13amiconnHmm, do you mean like Cleartype?
10:54:18preglowyes
10:54:47LinusNyou can fake antialiasing by prerendering, no alpha support needed
10:55:06LinusNalpha support is noly needed when the background is unknown
10:55:08LinusNonly
10:55:11preglowLlorean: worst case it'll double it, yes, but if the font is one pixel wide in places, it'll look like absolute shit
10:55:17LloreanLinusN: Which it always is with Rockbox, though.
10:55:21LinusNyes
10:55:46Lloreanpreglow: If the user wants absolute shit, why not offer it to him?
10:55:59LinusNwe can offer a whole bag of it :-)
10:56:04preglowLlorean: i dunno, it hasn't been our policy thus far
10:56:07LloreanWith giant fonts, which seems to be what users prefer anyway, it'll soften things up a little bit.
10:56:21preglowi wouldn't exactly yell at whoever produced a patch, heh
10:56:28preglowbut i don't see a point in it right now
10:56:36LloreanIn the end, it'd have to be seen on target to decide on anyway
10:56:37preglowi'd be more interested in alpha support and fonts rendered with an alpha channel
10:56:46Lloreanpreglow: Gonna buy a Gigabeat S then?

11:01:51linuxstbI hope you don't have to wait too long - they don't seem to be getting any easier to find...

11:12:37Lloreanpreglow: I'm assuming part of the 12 hour battery life is ridiculously bad HD use.
11:12:51preglowhow the hell do the devs get away with that?
11:12:53LloreanWhile browsing the playlist, about every three entries it had to spin up the disk.
11:13:16LloreanIt would spin down almost immediately if I wasn't constantly scrolling, then spin up again once I started moving.
11:13:50LloreanAnd this isn't "every third song I skipped to" but "Every third entry I highlighted"
11:14:28LloreanAt first I thought it was trying to precache some of the highlighted song so I could play it immediately, but that turned out to be false

11:35:37LinusNgammy: "All" means all files in the playlist
11:35:52gammyah
11:36:07preglowcurrently autochange dirs is a bit of a hack, yeah?
11:36:09gammyand the current playlist is the directory you're in when not using the db, am I right?
11:36:27LinusNpreglow: sort of
11:36:28Lloreanpreglow: So I hear, and then there's directory shuffle on top of it.
11:36:33LinusNgammy: right
11:36:41preglowi think the better solution would be a playlist mode and a directory mode
11:36:42gammyI can't use the db-stuff because my drive is a bit dodgy. A complete scan will just freeze the iRiver.

11:45:47preglowtis good indeed
11:45:57Zagorgammy: try Smörpundets Porter by Nynäshamns Ångbryggeri. it's heaven in a bottle.
11:46:09preglowi want to taste that...
11:46:25Zagorbelgians tend to put too much alcohol in their beers for my taste. it hides the malt and barley.
11:46:27Jangarinever heard of kwak
11:46:40Zagornow THIS is rockbox on-topic ! ;)
11:46:43Jangarichimay is certainly excellent
11:46:55scorche`Zagor: beer is always on-topic =)
11:47:00gammyZagor: yeah they usually have a lot of alcohol. But I don't think it disturbs the taste. I mean they are fine beers.

12:02:03gregjLinusN: I just wish sokoban will be bit bigger on screen of my ipod ;) and maybe battery life, toehrwise, I haven't used apple's firmware since I started using rockbox
12:02:57LinusNgregj: feel free to dig in and make sokoban bigger
12:03:35gregjI know :)
12:04:35gregji think they just changed HD sizes on 'classic' ipod, and probably they all work now in 1M/2M per sector, and that's it, that's my guess of course
12:04:50linuxstbgregj: I doubt it...
12:04:56scorche`im sure there is much more
12:05:10gregjI just wait for some website to take it appart
12:05:21scorche`the PP chips couldn handle those new features
12:05:26pondlifeI suspect Apple wouldn't want to use PortalPlayer for new models.
12:05:29linuxstbThey announced they were dropping PortalPlayer over a year ago - so I don't think they would release any new DAPs based on them now.
12:05:30scorche`well..
12:05:37gregjhmm
12:05:51gregjso nvidi bought PP in vain
12:05:53linuxstbPlus what scorche` said, plus the fact that the UI has completely redesigned and matches the 3G Nano...
12:06:06gregjI think it is the other way around
12:06:07linuxstbPlus the very long battery life...
12:06:12gregjnew nano has the features old ipod had
12:06:40gregjin terms of UI
12:06:45scorche`gregj: the nanos have had the beefier hardware longer
12:06:52linuxstbNo, it has Cover Flow for one thing.
12:06:56gregjI will go to apple store on monday, and check it out
12:07:07gregjI think they had this in previous one
12:07:22LinusNthe ui is rather silly to me, why waste half of the screen for a silly slide show?
12:07:34linuxstbWhat else do you do with large colour LCDs?
12:07:39gregjnow that I work in london, I can go to the store anytime :)
12:07:49linuxstb(apart from silly eye-candy...)
12:07:58scorche`LinusN: same reason people want DOOM to have priority over playback
12:08:10gregjnr 1 complint I can read here, and in formums, is that rockbox's UI is unreadable, due to the smallish font
12:08:11LinusNscorche`: good point
12:08:23gregjdoom is great :D
12:08:30scorche`gregj: that is why you change the font...
12:08:31LinusNgregj: so true, the default font is tiny
12:08:47gregjbtw, did you guys change anything in fixed point mp3 decoding over last month ?
12:09:05*scorche` points to the changelog
12:09:14gregjI can hear clicks sometimes now, and I listein to music on 0.3 volume - because I have better headphones now
12:09:30gregjscorche`: well, I cna view the diff, nice, but this won't give me too much info :)
12:09:33linuxstb0.3?
12:09:38gregjI am not familliar with the source that good
12:09:44gregjwhere 1 is full volume
12:09:49pixelmaLinusN: depends on the display...
12:10:00scorche`gregj: 0 is line level on rockbox..
12:10:07gregjI see
12:10:09gregjso 0.7 ?

12:13:34B4gderI usually consider it a relief to come back to rockbox once I've ran on OF

12:13:45LinusNlurk: would be nice
12:13:54lurkWhat are the cons? Apart from that has to be done?
12:13:55theotherpreglowusage wise: hell yes, but rockbox looks... ugly

12:14:24 Quit pondlife ("darn")
12:14:33theotherpreglowit doesn't have to be a clone fo retailos, but right now we're just plainly not doing it right in any wya
12:14:35linuxstblurk: Increased binary size. But I agree it would be sensible.
12:14:40B4gderthe cons: it has to be done and tested and a patch must be posted ;-)
12:14:47 Join pondlife [0] (n=Miranda@cpc1-rdng11-0-0-cust362.winn.cable.ntl.com)
12:14:57lurkLinusN: of course, it still has to be small enough so that the status bar fits in. But it can be done individually for every target.
12:15:02B4gderuntil our automatic code-writing bot is done
12:15:02amiconnThe sysfont should stay the same as it is now, on all targets
12:15:12B4gderwhy?
12:15:19amiconnWe should rather have a different default depending on lcd size+resolution
12:15:20 Quit preglow (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
12:15:27LinusNamiconn: exactly
12:15:30B4gderit doesn't make sense to have the same font when we have different resolutions anyway
12:16:01amiconnIt does make sense. The sysfont is only meant for debug stuff and severe error messages
12:16:16B4gderyes, but it already is different since it looks different on different LCDs
12:16:20lurklinuxstb: of course, only one font would be compiled in. The sysfont could go to the traget tree.
12:16:20amiconnSo it should stay as small as possible, also because it's built-in
12:16:23LinusNit is used for the boot splash
12:16:38B4gdernot that I mind the sysfont too much
12:16:39amiconnboot splas?
12:16:46linuxstbThe version info display
12:16:48LinusNyes, the version string below the logo
12:17:21amiconnAh, that
12:17:28LinusNand the status bar
12:17:37amiconnThat needs to be fixed
12:17:45amiconn..as well as the button bar & recording screen
12:17:48LinusNthe status bar is really silly on the large displays
12:17:51lurkamiconn: and WPS status bar. Which is my main consern and objection against a very small sysfont
12:18:05amiconnlurk: Re-read what I just said
12:18:08 Quit scorche` (Remote closed the connection)
12:18:31linuxstblurk: amiconn's point (IIUC) is that the user should never see the sysfont, so there's no point in increasing the size.
12:18:55*pondlife looks through many bytes of IRC log....
12:19:02amiconnYes, the user should never see the sysfont unless there's some kind of emergency
12:19:10pixelmasysfont = built-in but doesn't necessarily have to be the default...
12:19:30amiconn(like a crash, or broken installation)
12:19:34lurkBut then we should have multi font UI. Which we don't even in the plans
12:19:39*gregj *grins* and puts the evil smile on me face
12:19:48gregjdid you guys ever tried putting rockbox on zune :>
12:19:53linuxstbDo we even need that version info on the splash screen? Could we take the easy solution to that one and remove it?
12:20:08B4gdergregj: nobody has "broken" into that yet afaik
12:20:24gregjthat would explain why it doesn't do very well in sales ;)
12:20:28B4gderlinuxstb: I think we can
12:20:41B4gderremove sysfont week!
12:21:05B4gderwell, not remove but remove from user's face
12:21:29amiconnWe could ven keep that info, rendered with different fonts depending on lcd resolution, without having the large font built-in or waiting for the font to load from disk
12:21:31pixelmawould help a lot to decrease english.lang size as well...
12:21:43B4gderyes, those SYSFONT languages need to go
12:21:53rasherpixelma: not to mention *.voice

12:23:16lurkAnd in the meanwhile (no viewports, no multi font UI) we could just make the system font depend on the target (or on the screen size, actually)
12:23:29scorchepondlife: working, pretty much just WMA
12:23:54amiconnlurk: Not easily. Many parts that use the sysfont currently *rely* on its size
12:24:41amiconnSo those parts would need changing... but since they need to be touched anyway, it makes no sense to keep them using the sysfont
12:24:49pondlifescorche: I guess he's in exam mode for much of September...
12:24:55lurkamiconn: oh, didn't know that. On its absolute size? Or on the fact that everything (i.e. status bar) will fit?
12:25:20amiconnOn its absoltute size.

12:27:07lurkBut while the status bar looks reasonably good on H120, it's very small on ipod
12:27:36pondlifeWe should look at viewports before revising the status bar, surely.
12:27:45linuxstblurk: Lots of ipods have smaller (or the same) sized screen as the H120...
12:28:24lurklinuxstb: pixel wise?
12:28:45linuxstbYes. The mini1g, mini2g, 1st gen, 2nd gen, 3rd gen and 4th gen. The Nano is only slightly larger.
12:29:00pondlifeI'd love to have the same custom status bar in WPS and menus, somehow. which should come out of (1) viewports and (2) custom status bar taken from custom WPS
12:29:22pixelmabtw. the same font can look differently on screens with the same resolution (but smaller pixel dimensions)
12:30:22 Part lurk

12:33:50linuxstbB4gder: For the LCD fix?

12:59:50pixelmaDefineByte: some use the comment tags, and I still want to know if a file has that tag or not, even if I don't care about that specific one. Hiding it makes me forget which tags that could be and displaying as "no info" doesn't hurt IMO
13:00
13:00:13DefineByteif it doesn't show it, it doesn't have it obviously
13:00:53DefineBytei don't need to see 'work: no tag data' or whatever. it not being there will tell me 'work' isn't present
13:01:28scorchethen make a patch that does that and be happy...why are you always starting these never-ending arguments?
13:01:31LloreanDefineByte: And for people who have no clue "Work" is a valid Rockbox tag?
13:01:58DefineBytei'd imagine a list of valid tags should be in the manual
13:02:02LloreanSeriously, what benefit is there in hiding information that may be useful to users if it's going to actually mean additional code to do so?
13:02:04pixelmayeah... but do you always know which tags are supported and then count or see at first glance which one isn't there - I couldn't see easily then if there really is a tag missing that I usually want to have
13:02:17DefineByteand i do plan on writing a patch so don't worry. 8)
13:02:41DefineByteit'd not like you can add them from within rockbox anyway
13:03:52 Nick fxb__ is now known as fxb (n=felixbru@h1252615.stratoserver.net)
13:04:05DefineBytei just wanted to know if there was a good reason for it before i wrote a patch and it seems not. thanks
13:04:22LloreanI really don't think having to compare the ID3 viewer with an external written list is the most user friendly solution.
13:04:30LloreanDefineByte: If you write a patch, it seems pretty clear it'll get rejected...
13:04:33linuxstbDefineByte: The reason seems to be that everyone apart from you likes to see empty tags...
13:05:04DefineByteweird :)
13:05:24DefineBytenah, i think you just like the status quo :)
13:05:48linuxstbWho created the status quo?
13:06:21linuxstbBut if you read today's logs, you'll see lots of things no-one is happy with and want to see improved...
13:06:35LloreanAreas where time can be spent to the benefit of all.
13:06:49DefineBytehey, i have plaenty of time
13:07:00LloreanGood, there's plenty of work to be done.
13:07:16DefineByteif no-one wants it though i may as well not prioritise it
13:07:34scorcheif writing a patch makes you happy, then why wouldnt you do it?
13:07:40linuxstbDefineByte: _you_ want it, and that's what open source is about. Do what interests you.
13:08:00DefineByteit's hardly a big deal. it would be nice but that's all
13:09:46DefineByteis there anywhere else that would be a viable place to show supported tags wfrom within rockbox?
13:10:01DefineByteelse i may just make it a bool
13:10:27linuxstbYou mean show a list of the tags Rockbox understands, or the values of those tags in a particular file?
13:11:04DefineBytethe former
13:11:20DefineBytesince it seems important to people
13:11:30LloreanWouldn't that just make the situation worse, having to switch between a file and a separate list to compare?
13:11:57linuxstbDefineByte: Rockbox doesn't have any "online help", and that would seem to be in that category of info.
13:12:27DefineBytemaybe i could make a rockbox help plugin
13:12:34DefineBytemight be interestng
13:12:39LloreanIt seems adding code to dynamically hide empty tags, then adding more code to show a list of tags somewhere that you then have to remember while going to check the file is a way of making the same feature more complicated.
13:13:16linuxstbDefineByte: It would be. The problem IMO is how to call it. Ideally we would want a global keypress to bring up context-sensitive help, but there are not enough buttons for that.
13:13:31DefineByteyou can't tag in rockbox so knowing while in rockbox seems a bit pointless to me anyway
13:13:41linuxstbThen code a tag editor...
13:13:43DefineBytebut still, a plugin for help would be cool
13:13:48LloreanDefineByte: Can't tag in Rockbox yet.
13:13:58DefineBytewell, yeah. that's true
13:14:08LloreanIt's a common feature request, and pretty much the only reason there's not a plugin to do it is that nobody interested in the feature has done it.
13:14:21LloreanWell, I think there's a strictly ID3 tag editor, actually.
13:14:25linuxstbPlus it would need to deal with every tag format Rockbox supports....
13:14:27*Llorean seems to recall seeing one of those.
13:14:42pixelmathere was a tag editor patch in the tracker... probably mp3 only and outdated
13:15:04Lloreanlinuxstb: Which could be handled by making the ID3 viewer accept input when you click on a field.
13:15:22LloreanSince that's already handling all the tag formats Rockbox supports.
13:15:39DefineByteit would depend on wether the tag editor was built-in or a plugin whether 'show id3 info' should show empty tags
13:16:06DefineByteif you could edit tags by slecting them from within 'show id3' then obviously all should be shown
13:16:11LloreanDefineByte: Considering it would add more code either way for it to hide tags, I don't see any point in having it do so.
13:16:21DefineByteelse they'd only need to be visible from within the plugin
13:16:38LloreanShow ID3 is still quicker to get to, and would just let you know you need to run the plugin (if you want to fix those tags)
13:17:07DefineBytefair enough :)
13:17:13DefineBytei'd still like it though :D
13:17:33amiconnLlorean: Writing tags means considerably more effort than reading
13:17:33 Quit linuxstb ("Leaving")
13:17:52amiconnIt might even invole making a temporary copy of the whole file
13:18:45Lloreanamiconn: I didn't mean to suggest it was by any means easy, only that there's already a part of the code that obviously handles all the known tag formats.
13:18:54LloreanIn a read-only manner, of course
13:19:37DefineByteso what's preferable: 'show metadata'; ;show metadata info'; 'show tags'; 'show tag info' (or something else)?
13:19:53LloreanI'd go with "Show Metadata"
13:20:03LloreanSince at least the filename (which I believe it shows) isn't technically a tag.
13:20:15LloreanThere may be a few other non-tag bits of info in there (Song length?)
13:21:16DefineBytepath is there
13:21:35DefineByteas is playlist position
13:21:45DefineByteso yeah, tags obviously wouldn't be accurate
13:25:02DefineByteif i was to right a 'help' plugin could the manual be made available in XML?
13:25:07DefineBytewrite/
13:26:25pixelmaI don't understand what you are asking...
13:27:06DefineByteas in could rockbox provide an XML version of the manual for people to put on there DAPs.

15:50:17Embrionthx
15:50:23linuxstbLinusN: The label says 5021, but it's a revision of the 5022 according to the chip id readable by software.
15:50:24Galoisthat's a rather small diff
15:51:04LinusNamiconn should be able to tell what the fix was supposed to do
15:51:37B4gderI wonder what the c200 chip id says
15:51:53B4gderit could be the same as the nano
15:52:08linuxstbIsn't it the same as the e200?

15:52:17kugelHello
15:52:20B4gderit uses an external AS3514 even
15:52:58linuxstbInteresting. I thought low_light said he only changed a few things like the button and lcd drivers. I admit I didn't look at his commit though.
15:53:33linuxstbI'm pretty sure it's shown in the debug menu somewhere.

15:57:31B4gderyes
15:58:11B4gderit seems it has the same nand interface then as the e200 but it isn't marked as a PP5024 and it doesn't make sense to have the ams chip external if you have a 5024

16:54:13_jzbut I got here sourcecode of a very fine ncurses BPM detection software
16:54:42_jzthat could inspire a killer BPM detection plugin (the one in the metronome is very approximative and hardly accessible)
16:54:56linuxstb_jz: Main issue will be if it's heavily reliant on floating-point math. If so, it won't be straightforward to port.
16:55:03_jzcoupled with wrriting of the BPM in the id3tag it would be my 100% plugin usage during idle time in public transports :)

18:44:20n1sI'm not sure exactly what the gcc manual means but this is what it says "Warn if an initialized field without side effects is overridden when using designated initializers" it's for the -Woverride-init option which is included in -W

19:00:34linuxstbThat's immediately after it writes 0xe000 to 0x7000008c. That register is only used in Rockbox on the E200 - as part of the "ata" init.
19:13:13amiconnIt's some kind of timing, but I don't know what for. 0x00000303 is the values all ipods use for 24MHz. I found the formula, and it's also correct for 30MHz

20:25:24edistarthis is frustrating^^ I have mounted my ipod on /media/ipod and ./ipodpatcher can't find it
20:25:31edistardoes it need to be umounted?
20:25:36linuxstbGruven98: Have you read this page, especially the introduction? http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/PluginMpegplayer
20:26:00linuxstbedistar: No, you don't need to mount it. Are you running ipodpatcher as root?
20:26:19edistarlinuxstb: yes
20:26:23Gruven98yeah, i read that part... so i guess i have to convert everything to mpeg1 or 2
20:26:27linuxstbedistar: Also, does your ipod still work - i.e. does the Apple firmware boot?
20:26:32Gruven98i think everything is in 4 right now
20:26:45edistarlinuxstb: yes, it says do not disconnect
20:26:45edistar..
20:26:50edistarso it's still running, right?

20:27:47edistarlinuxstb: how do I see what it is?
20:28:05edistaroh, it tells me to restore my ipod

20:28:23linuxstbI'll give you one guess...
20:28:39linuxstbTry http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IpodManualRestore
20:29:12pixelmaGruven98: Rockbox doesn't play mp4 files so you would need to convert them, but if you have an Ipod Video you will probably have more fun with just watching video in the Apple firmware
20:29:55Gruven98i didn't get through the entire manual, but you can dual boot, right?
20:30:03edistarlinuxstb: how do I know which sdx to use?
20:31:16pixelmaGruven98: yes, flick the hold switch to on as soon as your Ipod boots
20:32:08linuxstbedistar: If you've mounted it on /media/ipod, then just type "mount", and it will tell you. e.g. if /dev/sda2 is mounted there, the device is /dev/sda

20:52:53Zagornot that I know. what is the case?
20:53:39amiconnSometimes I want to know which build server did which build, in order to check whether warnings are just due to specific gcc versions
20:53:53amiconn(mainly affects sims as the target gcc versions don't vary as much)
20:54:59linuxstbMaybe some kind of summary of the errors on a single page?
20:55:04linuxstb^errors/warnings
20:55:22linuxstb(linked to from the score?)
20:56:13amiconnThere's already the build server summary, but that only lists a buch of build times per server
20:56:36linuxstbAh, so a score/server column could be added?
20:58:07Zagora summary list of server/versios/errors would probably be good
20:58:08amiconnI could imagine a tooltip on the numbers in the main build table, showing the build server name and the gcc version
20:58:26ZagorI'll dump that in Bagder's lap. he's more familiar with the build stats scripts.
20:59:06amiconnE.g. in the latest run, on the H120 sim build it would show "storebror.haxx.se host-gcc 4.2.1"
20:59:38amiconn...and on e.g. M5 bootloader "bygg.haxx.se m68k-elf-gcc 3.4.6"

21:20:18Zagoredistar: yes
21:20:32edistarok
21:20:39edistarbrilliant
21:21:03linuxstbZagor: Thanks. After a quick look, it seems to be an identical format to the e200 firmware partition, so sansapatcher should be relatively easy to adapt.
21:21:10Zagornice
21:21:31n1sGenre9mp3: haha, he links to mistic river and calls it "The english rockbox forum" :-D
21:21:33ZagorI wonder if the c200 firmware supports fat32...
21:21:53linuxstbI'm pretty sure the e200 does
21:22:12n1sedistar: it does contain lots of imported code in plugins and codecs though
21:22:24linuxstbIIIRC, the first versions of Rockbox on the e200 were fat32 only, then fat16 was enabled later.
21:22:46Zagoryes but the e200 is harddisk-based. c200 is much smaller and hence doesn't "need" fat32
21:22:47edistarn1s: okey
21:23:05linuxstbThe e200 is flash as well.
21:23:12Zagoroh, my bad

21:24:45Zagorpixelma: indeed. the size was what fooled me.
21:25:55amiconnZagor: If the OF doesn't claim to support sdhc, it probably doesn't support fat32 either. But if that's really true, it would be less advanced than the archos Ondio firmware
21:26:19amiconn(which dates back to 2003, where MMCs were _far_ from breaking the FAT16 limit)
21:26:24Genre9mp3n1s: hopefully, the lst page on that pdf is more... accurate ;)
21:26:37amiconnI just tried it Archos Ondio OF handles my 4GB MMC
21:26:37Genre9mp3last
21:27:01linuxstbIs the Archos firmware for the Ondio similar to the other SH devices?
21:27:04amiconn(although it doesn't handle writing, but that's a different problem)
21:27:17*linuxstb has long since forgotton what the Archos firmware was like
21:27:19amiconnlinuxstb: The core might be similar, but the UI is different
21:27:44amiconnSimpler.... and somewhat better than the recorder OF
21:28:13amiconn(but it doesn't come anywhere near rockbox)
21:28:42edistarlinuxstb: please help me ;) I need user rights to access /media/ipod, and somehow it doesn't work, how do I do it?
21:29:03linuxstbedistar: What changed? I thought it was all working?
21:29:19edistarlinuxstb: yes, I can access my ipod as root, files etc
21:29:21edistarbut not as user
21:29:25edistarI need to set my rights

21:29:37Zagora thread in forums.sandisk.com says there are two fw versions: one that supports msc but not sdhc and one that support sdhc but not msc... mine supports msc.
21:29:47amiconnHmm, the OF can browse the 4GB MMC fine, but playback doesn't work
21:29:58linuxstbZagor: It doesn't mention a third fw that supports both?

23:36:04amiconnMy browser is always fullscreen (minus taskbar of course)
23:36:33BagderI prefer the new version

23:36:59linuxstb_I think even users appreciate the svn table on the front page. Or they just ignore it...
23:37:26amiconnBut the overview text at the top would imo look better as floating text like before
23:37:41BagderI disagree
23:37:44amiconnNow everything is ...boxed...
23:38:07BagderI think a major reason people didn't find the supported targets before was because the text "blended" too much with everything else

23:38:32peturI have to agree there's a lot of unused space on the new page
23:38:40amiconn...and the sponsors aren't visible while they would easily fit at the right here, wthout pushing anything downwards
23:39:00Bagdereasily fit if you have the widest browser in the world, sure
23:39:15Bagder:-)
23:39:24Bagderlike a 1400 wide one...
23:39:34peturthe new page does fit better on a smaller display
23:39:34Zagorthey only fit when you're browsing full-screen. only windows people do that :)
23:39:44amiconneh?
23:39:48Zagorjust kidding
23:39:52peturlol
23:40:13Zagorhere's the text unboxed. it looks rather lost to me.
23:40:28amiconnIt's not true that the new page fits better on a smaller display

23:41:03peturthat's.... very small

23:41:42peturaround 35% here...
23:41:56ZagorI get a scrollbar at ~650 pixels width. and it's the sponsor images that cause it.
23:42:23amiconnNow I don't get a scrollbar as the top box isn't there
23:42:26BagderI don't have a problem with scrolling to see the sponsors in that case
23:42:39Bagderah right
23:42:55amiconnNow it's even worse...
23:42:57Zagorbox is back, still no scrollbar until the sponsor images make one
23:43:00pixelmahmm... btw. why are all the tables fixed width (in pixels)? If it was percent it would adapt easier to different window wisths
23:43:06pixelma*widths
23:43:15amiconnLines don't wrap, but I don't get a scrollbar, so the text at theright is unreadable
23:43:16Zagorpixelma: they are not in pixels
23:43:27Zagoramiconn: what kind of weird browser are you using???
23:43:29Bagderthey stretch

23:43:44amiconnErm, 2.0.0.6
23:43:46amiconnbah
23:43:51Bagderthe text on the right don't wrap when the sponsor box "breaks" the right margin
23:44:01Zagorwell so do I, and the box text surely wraps for me
23:44:10amiconneh?
23:44:15BagderZagor: not anymore when the sponsor box is wider than the window
23:44:19pixelmaah... is it based on the longest line, or what=?
23:44:25pixelmas/=//
23:44:29Zagorof course, but that has nothing to do with the box text
23:44:54Zagoras soon as browsers add a scroll bar they stop scaling the page
23:44:57Bagderno, just that when you shrink it a lot, you need to scroll horizontally to read the text, nothing else
23:44:59amiconnIf I make the window smaller so it would have to add the horizontal scrollbar, it doesn't do so, but _removes_ the vertical scrollbar too instead??
23:45:02amiconn:puzzled:
23:45:17Bagderwhat?
23:45:23BagderI don't get that
23:45:36amiconnI do, 100% reproducable
23:45:43pixelmaZagor: so the could look differently every time the content changes?
23:45:44amiconnAt about 800px window width
23:45:58Bagderbut I'll admit that firefox on windows vs linux is oddly different at times, even at the same version

23:46:11DerPapsthi :)
23:46:41Zagorpixelma: yes. the boxes are one table each, with 100% width. and they are all contained in a big box without width setting. so they scale until they hit the outer box. which sizes itself after the widest box.
23:46:46pixelmaZagor: like it does in the current frontpage... didn't like that either I have to say
23:47:08DerPapstamiconn: in case you haven't noticed it yet... it's time for an Oops-Commit ;) In deutsch.lang check the voice string for "Error accessing playlist control file".
23:47:16Zagorwell the only option is to always expand, which will look very silly full-screen imho
23:47:23amiconnOn linux that weird effect doesn't happen, but the top table also doesn't wrap its contents
23:47:44Bagderamiconn: it does all the way until the sponsor box no longer fits
23:47:49amiconnMore specifically, the <ul> does wrap its items, but the top line doesn't
23:48:03Zagordoes here
23:48:07Bagderdoes here
23:48:07amiconnAh, so it's the sponsor box...
23:48:30 Quit tchan (Read error: 113 (No route to host))
23:48:39Bagdersomehow fixing the sponsors will make the page nicer when done narrow
23:49:12ZagorI can set them to crop instead of scroll, iirc
23:49:27 Quit Ebert ()
23:49:44pixelmaDerPapst: no wonder the mistake is in that word ;)
23:49:53Zagorlike the top-right logo here: http://www.bjornsbytare.se/
23:50:28amiconnHmm, horizontal scrollbar in FF/Windows seems to be broken
23:50:28Bagderyes, it is probably better that way
23:50:44amiconnIt gets added on other sites (e.g. ipl), but doesn't scale properly
23:52:01amiconnrofl
23:54:36Zagorimage cropping adds a few pixels more shrinkability, but then the boxes become unwrappable anyway (single word/line)
23:55:23amiconnFF on Windows does strange things...
23:55:51amiconnOn our current frontpage, narrowing the window makes the sponsor box partially overlap the svn table
23:56:06*DerPapst just noticed that too
23:56:13DerPapstwith ff 1.5
23:56:22amiconnDoesn't happen on linux
23:56:23Zagoryes, it's because it's an align=right placement. they do that.
23:56:40amiconnMaybe that's due to its different name, Iceweasel? ;)
23:56:47Zagorhehe
23:56:48BagderZagor: it can be prevented though
23:56:49pixelmahuh... doesn't happen here
23:57:00Bagderthe align right effect I mean
23:57:02*DerPapst goes to bed.
23:57:03pixelmanow it does
23:57:07DerPapstgood night everyone
23:57:13 Quit DerPapst ("So Long And Thanks For All The Fish!")
23:57:50pixelmaseems to depend on what dimension was too short first
23:57:55peturit _does_ happen here with ff on ubuntu
23:58:03amiconnhmm...
23:58:34*amiconn just noticed the somewhat weird combination of doing all formatting in css but still having a doctype of html 4.0 transitional...
