00:05:27maxkelleydoes the flipit plugin compile? it doesn't for me.
00:06:13amiconnThe build table shows that it does
00:07:02maxkelleyI'm missing dependency files for it, flipit_cursor.h and flipit_tokens.h
00:07:21maxkelleyand I don't see them when browsing svn, either.
00:08:07amiconnThose files are generated when building bitmaps

00:08:51sofianbabaihello all!
00:08:56amiconnA plain 'make' of latest svn does definitely work
00:09:34sofianbabaiare there some sansa guru in here ? :)
00:09:43maxkelleysofianbabai: what sansa?

00:09:57maxkelleyamiconn: I figured.. I'm just wondering as to why those files would have disappeared.
00:10:33sofianbabaisansa e200 : just wanted to know if htere is a reset button on this one. i got problems to get it recognized by my xp box :)
00:10:35Lloreanmaxkelley: They don't "disappear"... They just don't "appear" until you run the plain make.
00:10:58maxkelleyso, I need to build the normal portion before building a uisim?
00:11:17LloreanIf you make a sim as per the normal instructions, they should be generated.
00:11:52maxkelleyI'm building UIsim right now, and it fails at "no rule to make target flipit_cursor.h"
00:12:02maxkelleythis uisim is for the c200.
00:12:25amiconnPlugins don't compile for c200 right now
00:12:26sofianbabaia reset button or something allowing me to get my usb back lol
00:12:44Lloreanmaxkelley: Ah, as amiconn said, the c200 isn't really "done" yet.
00:12:46maxkelleyamiconn: I know, I'm working on making them. I'm adding the proper keymaps for all of them.
00:13:01maxkelleyI talked to lowlight about it, and he told me to do so.

00:13:28amiconnThen you need to make the necessary bitmaps and enable them in th erespective SOURCES files as well
00:13:36maxkelleyah, ok.
00:13:38amiconnAfter that the related .h files will appear

00:15:25sofianbabaiit's fine ! thx !
00:16:25sofianbabaiand a last question: is there someone here who have built sapi4 voicefile with success for a sansa player or any other
00:16:41sofianbabaii'm trying to do that under cygwin and i have some problmes :)

00:22:11amiconnsofianbabai: What kind of problems?
00:22:28amiconnSAPI4 takes ages, but apart from that it should work
00:22:30sofianbabaiok for sapi 4 we'll see
00:23:39sofianbabaibut another one lol: is there a way to convert the charset of a lang file under cygwin ... some kind of command. the voice file i'm building is in french and the utf-8 chars are really bad pronounced obbiously
00:23:41amiconnSAPI5 works far far better
00:24:16sofianbabaiyour right amiconn but many blind users like me prefer the eloquence voice
00:24:17amiconnAre you using the latest scripts from svn?
00:24:41sofianbabaiyes i'm using the lastes script
00:25:19amiconnThen utf-8 shouldn't be a problem. The only problem I could imagine is that the problematic strings are *not* proper utf-8
00:25:39sofianbabaii can convert my charset using windows but i would like to automate the process
00:26:06amiconnYou shouldn't convert the charset. The voice build system needs utf-8 now
00:27:20sofianbabaiamicon: ho my I don't know how to do that. the bad pronounced string are things like é ê etc
00:28:32amiconnAll .lang files are utf-8, and the voice build needs utf-8. It should work with no extra steps
00:28:55sofianbabaidon't you have a few minutes to look a the francais.lang file ?
00:29:05amiconnIf there is a problem, it's either due to a mistake in the .lang file, or due to a pronunciation problem in the tts engine
00:29:20sofianbabaisory i'm newbie just tring to help french users to have a new voice file lol :)
00:29:24dionoealooks like valid utf-8 here
00:29:50dionoeado you have an example string which doesn't work well for you? (so i can check if it's using non utf-8 chars)
00:30:09amiconnPronunciation problems aren't uncommon; take a look at the at&t enigne specific replacement list in voice.pl
00:30:18amiconn(I mean for german)
00:31:30sofianbabaidifficult to give you an example since i can hear the mistake only in the voice file
00:32:04sofianbabaibut it seems that the accentuated letters have problems and we have many of those damn things in french :)
00:32:26dionoeaand they all look ok :) (at least up to 15% of the francais.lang file)
00:32:51amiconnGerman also has such letters (the umlauts), and they work fine after I added the conversion from utf-8
00:33:17sofianbabaiwhen i was generating my voice file under windows, i had to convert the charset first ... really don't know where the problems comes from
00:33:23amiconnPerhaps I should try to actually build a german voice with sapi4 and compare (the at&t voices are both sapi5 and sapi4)
00:34:03sofianbabaiamikonn: my sapi 4 script is not working proprerly :( sory
00:34:07amiconnsofianbabai: I really don't understand where you have to convert the charset. The .lang files are utf-8, and the voice build needs utf-8
00:34:40amiconnIf you convert the .lang to something else, it will of course produce wrong results for accented letters
00:35:27sofianbabaireally dunno amikonn but when i have coverted my lang file to iso 8859 when i was building my voices files under windows the problem disappears
00:36:01amiconnAre you talking about the old scripts in the wiki?
00:36:18sofianbabaiyes i was generating with the old script on the wiki
00:36:32amiconnThose needed conversion to iso 8859-1. But voices built with those scripts won't work anymore
00:37:08sofianbabaigosh! so what do i have to do :) i'm lost
00:37:11amiconnThe new systems is just svn checkout, configure for voice build, 'make voice'. Nothing else.

00:38:39sofianbabaiamiconn: yes for that, it's ultra simple to use no problems
00:39:28sofianbabairight now, i don't use the old script anymore, only cygwin

00:45:21dionoeayup
00:46:34Noah0504So, I've been trying to figure out an easy way to keep music sycned between my iPod and my computer while running RockBox. Should I just use something like Banshee that will add music to the iTunes database?
00:47:22amiconnpetur: The crash you observed - I guess that it happens on track change or when skipping...
00:47:41peturnope, at start of playback
00:48:25amiconnThen I have no explanation
00:49:07amiconnThe crash on track change/skip is a known problem on 64 bit sims. Happens with all codecs if the next track uses the same track as the current one
00:49:19amiconnErm, the same codec
00:49:42peturmy cpu may be 64bit, my ubuntu is plain x86, no 64bit
00:50:00petur(insert 'but' in the middle)
00:50:09amiconnaha
00:50:51amiconnSomehow I overlooke dthat you run x86. But then I don't understand your remark either
00:51:07amiconnmp3 worked on 32 bit before, and also did after my commit
00:51:48dionoeaNoah0504: rockbox doesn't use the iTunes database.
00:51:50peturWell it already crashed before your commit ;)
00:51:51amiconnMaybe jhMikeS' commit causes those problems - couldn't try this on 32 bit linux myself (only 64 bit linux and win32)
00:52:07amiconnThen you might have a problem with your sdl installation
00:52:31peturhmmmm I'm not a linux guru :/
00:52:48peturcan you force a re-install?
00:53:01amiconnSound support on linux is a pita if you ask me
00:53:17***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
00:54:07dionoeapetur: what distro do you use ? apt based ?
00:54:17peturubuntu
00:54:28petur so debian I guess
00:54:34dionoeathen sudo apt-get install −−reinstall <the packages> should work
00:54:57 Quit Zagor ("Client exiting")
00:54:58amiconnI don't think that a package is damaged
00:55:04Noah0504dionoea: But it can read it by having the Rockbox database enabled. Other than that. I can't think of a good way to keep things synced.
00:55:27amiconnIt's most probably a configuration issue (and that's the pita part)

00:57:31DarkStylistGuys is s1mp3 project dead?
00:57:48amiconnThere are (on debian) libsdl1.2debian-alsa, libsdl1.2debian-arts, libsdl1.2debian-esd, libsdl1.2debian-nas and libsdl1.2debian-oss
00:58:09amiconnWhile alsa should be de-facto standard, only the -oss variant works for me
00:58:09LloreanDarkStylist: That'd be a good thing to ask the s1mp3 project...
00:58:17webguest18hi i have a question i just got 2 new ipods the ipod touch and the ipod classic with 160GB is there a way to get rockbox on them??
00:58:20amiconn(i.e. lets the sim play sound and not crash)
00:58:40DarkStylistyea they never posted a distro of their os
00:58:42dionoeawebguest18: no
00:58:45webguest18they are brand new i havent even opened them.
00:58:49webguest18oh
00:58:54dionoeaand there probably won't be for a long time
00:58:55*amiconn should perhaps try different variants again
00:59:15webguest18will there ever be a way to put rockbox in them?

00:59:41peturI seem to have the alsa one installed
00:59:55dionoeawebguest18: since it's entirely new hardware (as far as i know) compared to previous versions .... i doubt that anyone can answer that question
01:00
01:00:14DarkStylistwho knows if there be a way the s1mp3 hardware is pretty alien
01:00:19dionoeanew + undocumented hardware
01:00:19webguest18oh ok thanks anyway
01:00:33webguest18i have another question
01:01:10webguest18i got rockbox on my ipod video 390GB about 2 months ago shoul i install it again
01:01:12DarkStylistunless someone dissasembles the s1mp3 firmware and makes sence for cpu parts
01:01:15Steve132I am looking into writing a plugin...does anyone know how hard it would be to port a subset of libbz2 to rockbox?
01:01:20webguest18i ment 30GB
01:01:24webguest18sorry
01:01:56amiconnpetur: Alsa should be default if the soundcard is handled by alsa. However, while my sound card *is* handled by alsa, the libsdl-alsa variant didn't work for me
01:02:18amiconnBut -oss works because (iiuc) alsa emulates oss
01:02:49dionoeaSteve132: depends on the memory requirements. zlib should be doable. Don't know about bz2.
01:03:28peturamiconn: do I need to recompile after swapping? I guess not...
01:03:32dionoeazlib has a very low memory footprint decoder (as an example in their source code)
01:03:36amiconnno
01:04:14dionoeamost plugins only have 512 kB of memory available (someone correct me if i'm wrong)
01:04:18peturnow it crashes even before it shows the peakmeters :(
01:04:20amiconn-esd crashes here
01:04:54Lloreandionoea: Not most. All, unless they steal the audio buffer (no music). Though the hwcodec players it's a different situation entirely (32k if I recall)
01:05:37peturamiconn: sim won't close too, how did you force close?
01:06:05amiconnYou need to kill the process. I uses the gnome system monitor
01:06:07Steve132dionoea: Has anyone done either one before? it would be nice to be able to link in a library if it is used elsewhere in the OS
01:06:09amiconn*used
01:06:20dionoeaSteve132: not that i know.
01:06:44peturamiconn: got it... just like taskman on w32
01:06:49amiconnyes
01:07:13amiconnLinux purists will say 'bah', but I don't care...
01:07:37dionoeaSteve132: the small version of zlib i was thinking about is available in contrib/puff/ in the zlib source
01:08:04Steve132ok...second question....the rockbox build system is really good, but non-standard...are there any good examples in the source of porting a library to the build system?
01:08:10Steve132for use in a plugin?
01:08:27dionoeaaudio codecs maybe ... but they're not really plugins
01:09:08Steve132hmm...ok
01:09:10Steve132thanks :)
01:09:14dionoeathis is the interesting sentence in the puff readme: "puff.c may also be useful in applications where code size or memory usage is a very limited resource, and speed is not as important."
01:09:24dionoeasince it's one file only it shouldn't be too hard to port
01:09:27Steve132oh yeah
01:09:28Steve132wow

01:27:06zeand probably by running the esd or esound initscript with 'down' as the parameter (and removing it from your default runlevel or whatever, if youwant it not tos tart on next boot)
01:27:18zealternatively just finding the running process and killing it
01:27:53zeof course there's probably some distro-specific means of removing it from your default startup
01:28:04amiconnThere is an option in gnome to disable esd

02:19:06Butsumetsuwanted to ask something.... when it comes to applying a patch do I still need to rewrite a code or does the cygwin does that for me?
02:20:41aliaskButsumetsu: A patch is designed to automate the code-changing part
02:20:54aliaskSo you apply the patch, and compile the modified source
02:23:04Butsumetsuaahhh so actual coding knowledge is needed damn

The plant is called in Hebrew "kaneh bosem" (literally "fragrant cane"). Contrary to the translation of the Septuagint, and supported by both Aramaic translations (the Targum and the Peshita), this is identified as the cannabis plant.

08:17:18amiconnjhMikeS: Now there's the opposite effect on linux: The sim draws so little cpu power that buffering takes ages, and playback skips like hell ("sdl_audio_callback: No Data" every few seconds)
08:17:37maxkelleyHeh.
08:18:51jhMikeSamiconn: say what? I test on VMWare and things go ok. I've nowhere to put a straight linux install.
08:19:04amiconnThat's on 64 bit
08:19:42jhMikeSand I meant rockboy, indeed :)
08:19:48amiconnClosing the app works now though
08:21:16jhMikeSthrough a nasty fix...terminating threads on anything in that manner is rather iffy.
08:21:38jhMikeSdid you watch the audiobuffer screen?
08:21:46amiconnno
08:22:33amiconnGnome system monitor shows 0% cpu for that skipping sim btw
08:23:39LloreanWhy is plugin use of the audiobuffer an all-or-nothing thing?
08:25:52amiconnjhMikeS: Hmm, I can't check the audio debug screen. As soon as playback started, the ui is completely unresponsive
08:25:54jhMikeSamiconn: obviously SDL_Delay(0) works as thread yield like it should so that will need limiting
08:26:10jhMikeSwill it ever finish buffering?
08:26:14amiconnyes
08:26:21jhMikeSand it's ok after that?
08:26:29amiconnIt does (from what I can tell from the console output)
08:26:31amiconnnope
08:27:24amiconnIt's only after buffering finished that it even starts to play - and then it skipis and skips and ..
08:27:46amiconnUI is unresponsive from the moment I select a file
08:27:59jhMikeSI suppose a counter could go back on the SDL_Delay call to find a good number. No reason to use 1. I also don't want to deny 100% utilization if needed.

08:30:35jhMikeSI'll put the counter back in but with SDL_Delay(0) instead. It should be fine with VWWare and the like no matter.
08:31:24amiconnIf I take out the SDL_Delay(0), it works again
08:31:39maxkelleymeh.
08:31:43jhMikeSI thought it was starving other threads without it
08:31:50maxkelleyyet another magical compiling error.
08:32:12amiconnNo it doesn't. It did because of the peakmeters calling sleep(0), and sleep(0) wasn't behaving like on target
08:32:48amiconnIt might though in another situation than playback

09:02:38JdGordonanyone have an idea how to put the e200r bootloader/installer into the build system?
09:03:28amiconnIsn't the bootloader the same as e200?
09:03:55JdGordonyes, but there is a installer "bootloader" which needs to be built before the boootloader can be run
09:04:13JdGordonit uses the code from the bootloader/ folder
09:04:27jhMikeSThe e200 svn bootloader should probably be made available as "the bootloader" since there's that lcd fix.
09:06:37amiconnJdGordon: Do you have that on-target patcher working?
09:06:42JdGordonyes
09:06:47*jhMikeS wonders about the semaphore use and if perhaps that should just be pulled. it will cause more blocking than should really be there I think.
09:09:46amiconnnice :)
09:10:05amiconnSansapatcher will handle the installation I presume? (in manufacturer mode)
09:10:19JdGordonim hoping to merge the sansapatcher code into the installer

09:13:35ipodbootloadermy bad on double post
09:15:23nurnI assum you would have to get the souce code for the boot loader and change the if statment around, then recomile it and install it.
09:15:58scorche|ltopnurn!
09:16:36scorche|ltopand, yes...you would need to recompile the bootloader
09:17:01nurnscorche|ltop!
09:19:30amiconnjhMikeS: I think the delay should just be removed for now. A more sophisticated mechanism could be added later if we run into trouble somewhere
09:19:39amiconnI have no idea about the semaphore thing

09:28:44kkurbjunhey jdgordon, how difficult do you think it would be to modify the gui code to respond to a touch screen or a mouse as an input method? - I know that's a pretty open ended question, but I'm wondering if you have any impression of how feasible it is with the current code.
09:31:00JdGordonkkurbjun: well, I was thinking about that actually (blame apple :p) and it would be _difficult_...
09:31:26JdGordonunless a dedicated screen keybaord area was implemented
09:34:00kkurbjunyeah, buttons on screen seem doable, but I'm thinking for the all the lists, right now I'm thinking that the screen could be divided up into segments for up down, left, right and it would work well enough, but it really wouldn't be using the touch screen's capabilities much.. I guess that's something for the future (hopefully not too far future though :-D)
09:34:53JdGordonfor the sim it shuold be easy to do... but for real targets.. yeah, it would need regions on the screen which wouldnt work all that well i tihnk
09:34:56JdGordonnot with the current ui
09:35:12 Quit Ebert ()
09:35:22kkurbjunwhy would the sim be easier?
09:37:02kkurbjunthere's another platform I'm interested in that has a touch screen - no multi touch stuff, just a single point.
09:37:52JdGordonwell... the sim has "buttons" which the user would press, real targets would be interesting...
09:37:56JdGordonwhich target you have in mind?
09:38:16kkurbjunthe M:robe 500
09:39:37JdGordonmaybe it could work
09:39:56kkurbjunit's a DMS320 based player, but alot of the chip and device have already been figured out by two others who started a medios port and did a linux port
09:40:37*JdGordon would love to help with that port :p
09:41:06JdGordonif the button driver returned an x/y coordinate instead of a real button, the list code could figure out an action
09:41:14JdGordonno idea how other screens would cope though

09:41:52kkurbjunwell there's alot of information if you want to get a player, I already have a target tree setup - havn't gotten the lcd running yet, but like I said before there's alot of work and code to refrence
09:42:12kkurbjunyou can get used ones really cheap on ebay
09:42:28kkurbjunI got one in mint condition for 70 w/ shipping
09:44:40*jhMikeS no sem, 50 count as before
09:44:47amiconnjhMikeS: Btw, it should be possible to prevent the rockbox threads from starving other threads (e.g. the i/o) without SDL_Delay. We'd need to set a lower priority for the rockbox threads
09:45:45jhMikeSis it confirmed the screen/key/io threads are being starved?
09:46:26jhMikeSI don't think SDL support prioritization anyway
09:46:35amiconnThey are if you put it back to sleep(0) not sleeping at all

09:48:02jhMikeSwell, yeah, I don't think a zero wait on SDL_Cond actually did a thread yield but just a test and return, unlike SDL_Delay(0).
09:48:03amiconnhmm
09:49:16jhMikeSthat semaphore in switch_thread will increase the yield count too high for the RB threads and those seem to be the ones starving if mpegplayer for example loses ground.
09:50:50JdGordonanyone know anything about the boot.lds file? it doesnt seem to like my extra define i put int he Makefile ?

10:51:53jhMikeSjust waiting on the queue just block until the next frame is due is worth a few uS. makes no sense to spin at all imho.
10:52:13amiconnThe spinning makes very much sense on hwcodec
10:53:09 Quit desowin ("use linux")
10:53:23amiconnOn hwcodec, peak_meter_peek() must be called as often as possible. The more often it is called, the better the peak reading will reflect the actual peaks
10:53:34***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
10:54:16amiconnHowever, doing this always slows down other stuff, so the highperf variable is used to slow down peak reading to once per tick if ata is active
10:54:42amiconnWithout that, recording will break when the fat code has to scan for the first usable cluster
10:58:17jhMikeSok, for hwcodec it might be needed for accuracy but on SWCODEC just waiting for a keypress would be way more efficient since it gets a whole buffer to peek at
10:59:17*amiconn just found why the peakmeters in swcodec sims seem to be totally unrelated to the music...
11:00
11:00:17LloreanBecause it is due to some bug?
11:00:29jhMikeSthe mpegplayer sync is skewed too. it would be nice to have a good audio sync.
11:00:59amiconnLlorean: It's because it just uses random values in the sim, although it calculates the actual peaks
11:01:13n1shehe, nice
11:01:15LloreanSo... less a bug, and more just "not intended to work"
11:01:33amiconnThis randomisation is obviously there to cause some motion in the sim's wps - but it's only actually needed for hwcodec sims
11:01:34*jhMikeS thought it actually read the darn buffer :)
11:01:52amiconnjhMikeS: It does - but it doesn't use the value...
11:03:02jhMikeSwhy is that needed even for hwcodec? it's not really hwcodec in the sim anyway.
11:03:32amiconnNo, it's no codec in the sim
11:03:47jhMikeSno audio?
11:03:48amiconnWithout the randomisation, the peakmeter would look static
11:04:13amiconncorrect
11:04:39jhMikeSsheesh. I'd think you could build libmad into it and fake it.
11:05:36jhMikeSI guess a sim MAS would be fun to work on
11:05:36amiconnWell, it would need a mas emulation using libmad

12:31:39[aaa]Hello there is a firmwares for the mp4 GV40 ?
12:33:23n1s[aaa]: There's no Rockbox port for that player
12:33:52linuxstbJdGordon: It removes all the symbols from the binary - to reduce the size.
12:36:29linuxstbJdGordon:: Your e200r installer patch is looking good. You should be able to use sleep() for your delays though - the bootloader implements it on PP using the hardware usec timer.
12:37:43JdGordonwhich sleep()?
12:37:53linuxstbJdGordon:: Also, if the button driver is working reliably, maybe add an "press any key to reboot" after its finished?
12:38:00JdGordonthats on the list
12:38:04linuxstbI mean use sleep() instead of your for() loops.
12:38:09JdGordoni havnt tested the button driver at all
12:38:54linuxstbBut maybe those loops will disappear in the final version anyway...
12:40:36JdGordonprobably
12:40:39linuxstbHas anyone tested it on a real E200R yet?
12:40:54JdGordonno, chrisjs169 tested it on his converted e200 though and it worked
12:41:04linuxstbAlso, has anyone made any effort on Windows?
12:41:14JdGordonit does a full crc32 check and a quick check of the 4 bytes being changed so it shoudl be safe
12:41:17JdGordonand no
12:41:44linuxstbI assume the dump[] array will go away as well in the final version?
12:41:51JdGordonyeah
12:42:03JdGordonI'm not sure weather to put the whole thing in the main-pp.c or a new file
12:42:16linuxstbA new file IMO.
12:42:37linuxstbAs it's not a bootloader...
12:42:48[aaa]What's the best progs for convertir in .MTV ,?
12:43:21scorche[aaa]: what does that have to do with rockbox?
12:43:25linuxstbAlthough if there's a lot of shared code, maybe add a common-pp.c file or similar? That would also have the advantage of making main-pp.c itself smaller.

So it wouldn't be too much work (less work than arguing about licenses...) for someone to describe what it's doing (with reference to libusb functions), and then for someone else to just implement them again without looking at the original source.
13:04:09JdGordonthis is what I recon... its so simple that it would end up the same code...
13:04:26linuxstbI did that in the past with mi4code, when I incorporated it into scramble.

13:10:49ByronFortescueI want to add those flashy icons to my rockbox theme, but how do I accomplish this.. The fontsize of the theme is rather small and it seems like the icons get squished..
13:12:02n1sByronFortescue: then you have two options, 1) Find a theme that uses a larger font 2) use smaller icons
13:12:32ByronFortescueok thanks ^_^

13:19:59ByronFortescueOk, cause in order to use some themes, it says it needs those patches (for album art for instance), but do I just overwrite all the files in the package to my .rockbox dir? and does it use the album art in the mp3 files itself?

16:22:22jhMikeSBuschel: yes
16:23:43Buschelahh, that's good. I would like to discuss some things about it
16:24:14Buscheli adapted the patch to the ipod-wheeldriver and came around some stuff
16:25:19Buschele.g. in my patch i do not use the flag for fast scrolling at all. i always set it and let the calculation in button_apply_acceleration() do the rest
16:25:48Buschelso, if v > 1 -> accelerate, if v<=1 -> only step further by 1
16:26:25jhMikeSyou could run into trouble. the reason that is there is so that it _never_ skips when moving slowly to ensure you can always go to the next/prev item.
16:26:46Buschelworks fine here
16:27:02Buschelmaybe a special thing with the sansa-driver?
16:27:50jhMikeSno. skipping could still be indicated because a queue_post was missed
16:28:56Buschelhmm, would be a good idea to take a look at the patch as soon as it is submitted
16:28:59jhMikeSan integral part is allowing multiple item skips to preserve the perceived movement velocity and you don't want that when being precise.
16:29:28 Quit jhulst ("Konversation terminated!")
16:29:48Buschelhmm, as long as v < 1 the multiple skips would be done as well
16:30:58Buschelnevertheless: through this proceeding you can interprete the scaling factor as a limit in wheelclicks/s above which the acceleration takes place
16:31:15Buschelthat's what the configuration is about
16:31:38Buschelahem, the configuration i talked about one hour ago...
16:34:36jhMikeSMy main concern with that was that the point at which any skipping could happen would be a well-defined speed and not subject any scaling factor.
16:36:44Buschele.g. for sansa in current configuration: v < 1 for <90 clicks/s, so acceleration starts with >=90 clicks/s
16:37:06jhMikeSso many factors are used in the sansa wheel driver. at slow speed you have directional hysteresis so that two clicks are needed after reversing direction. there's also hysteresis applied to the switch from slow->fast back to slow.
16:38:03Buschelyes, i saw this. is this really needed? without such hysteresis you get a more smooth reactivity
16:39:24 Quit JdGordon ("Konversation terminated!")
16:40:12jhMikeSprecise selection is more imporant imo when moving slowly. if you just passed a click point, reversing would otherwise jump back with a tiny movement without it

16:43:56Buschelanother thing: could the v-stuff in button_apply_acceleration() be calculated in int? if we would write the data in clicks/s we would merely exceed 400 or so. multiplications could then be done via uint32
16:45:27jhMikeSmmmm...not sure. that about 6 revs/s on the wheel. it could exceed that by flicking it and overflow the values then.

16:47:35elcaseyoi, whoops...wrong channel

17:32:52jhMikeSmust be some reason behind it and fixing that problem would improve the situation a whole lot. really, I can't imagine anything working well at all like that.

17:34:09jhMikeSBuschel: from where are you measuring the rate? right in the button driver and not the button_queue?
17:34:12mschneiderthere's also an image buffer limit. So you can't have 52 huge images (or even medium sized ones for that matter)
17:35:12chrisjs169mschneider, any idea on what that limit is?

18:33:56amiconnI would probably have integrated it into the bootloader build

19:34:32maxkelleyit has worked previously.
19:34:46maxkelleyI tried upgrading the sansa firmware, and when I booted, I got a black screen.
19:34:52maxkelleyI tried recovery, got the same.
19:35:02linuxstbSo your C200 doesn't boot currently?
19:35:07jhMikeSamiconn: per chance you want to test graceful sim thread shutdown real quick before committing it? Just one shutdown should be enough to tell.
19:35:14maxkelleymanufacturing was the only thing that worked, so I used e200tool to recover the original bootloader.
19:35:18maxkelleythat's correct.
19:35:52maxkelleyafter it copied the bootloader, it restarted and went into the firmware, but froze on the "connected" screen.

21:24:44Agm3ntmaxkelley: maybe rockbox.mi4 is inwalid
21:25:14rraewell i know C
21:25:41maxkelleybut the rockbox bootloader should display an error code though, if it can't find the rockbox.mi4, or is invalid? at least, that's what I saw someplace on the wiki
21:25:48rraebut at least someone to talk about it who knows what would be to do, would be nice
21:25:49maxkelleywant me to rebuild it, or send me yours?
21:25:51n1sjhMikeS: yup playback works fine :-)
21:25:57linuxstbkkurbjun: Do you have any idea where the patchset linked to from the PluginMidiPlay page comes from?
21:25:57kkurbjunyep, if you make one I would be glad to accept it - currently rockdoom uses nearly the entire plugin buffer, so you'd have to use the overlay stuff
21:25:59rraei have no clue how much work it would be
21:26:07jhMikeSn1s: good. thanks for checking.
21:26:16kkurbjunrrae, it would be a LOT
21:26:24kkurbjunto put it simply
21:26:29n1sjhMikeS: np :-)
21:26:38kkurbjunlinuxstb, no, I'm not sure where it came from
21:26:56rraeah you are there, nice
21:26:58Agm3ntmaxkelley: ok I send you
21:27:16rraetoo crowded here ;)
21:27:42maxkelleyAgm3nt: I tried again, removing VERSION.TXT, and putting only firmware.mi4, I got "Reading main image/invalid main image/upgrade finished/resetting system"
21:28:14Agm3ntmaxkelley: what OF version you have?
21:28:54rraehmm k
21:29:06maxkelley1.00.03 I think.
21:29:13Agm3ntmaxkelley: maybe this is a problem
21:29:14maxkelleywhat's yours?
21:29:19maxkelleythat's what I was just thinking.
21:29:33Agm3ntmaxkelley: 1,01.00P
21:29:40rraewell there are very few sources about what is the difference between doom and he** wads
21:29:53kkurbjunrrae, rockdoom isn't a straight source port of doom or any of the variants - it's this half doom, half prboom mix - the heretic source has alot of other code/features that were added in, I don't think it would be as straightforward as it would have been if I just used the doom original source, or it was at least a clean port of prboom
21:29:55maxkelleyok, I'm downloading that one now.. is that for the americas too?
21:30:14Agm3ntmaxkelley: AFAIK main-pp have a most recent key
21:30:29Agm3ntmaxkelley: yes
21:30:41Agm3ntmaxkelley: you mean OF??
21:31:21kkurbjunI havn't looked at specifically the wad code - I would imagine that the headers were the main things that changed in the wads
21:31:36maxkelleyyeah, sansa firmware
21:31:43kkurbjuneither heretic or hexen (or both) had scripting engines on top of the doom engine
21:31:46rraewell for the start we could just ignore all script stuff
21:32:00maxkelleyoops, gotta eat.
21:32:04maxkelleywill you be around?
21:32:12kkurbjunthere's also changes to the rendering engine

21:41:13kkurbjunrrae, I just checked out that source - it looks like it's a mix of different code also
21:41:23kkurbjunsimilar to rockdoom

21:47:04kkurbjunrrae if you have questions on the source I would be happy to give you whatever information you need, you can reach me on the forums via pm if anything comes up. The WAD format is just a collection of files - there were enhancement to the levels, the palettes, ways of adding translucent objects.. there were some enhancements to the wad loader and the caching engine, but they didn't change the format of a wad file.

21:49:07kkurbjunthere was higher resolution rendering - prboom is designed to be as compatible as possible with the different versions of doom and some of the older source ports. there were changes to the code between doom1 and doom2 - they also had access to the original dos version of doom source to fix some of the incompatiblity with the linux release

22:50:36linuxstbThere are 9 named that...
22:50:38maxkelleyoh, I lied.
22:51:12linuxstbThe appropriate bmp (see the SOURCE file in that directory) is converted to a C array at compile time and linked to the plugin.

22:51:21maxkelleyso, in that case, I must make one for me.
22:51:38linuxstbYes - you'll need to create lots of bmps for the c200...

23:15:21n1sBagder: IMHO it would be more useful to see the commit message in the frontpage table than which files were edited
23:15:22ChrononI am in the USA
23:15:32ChrononOregon, to be more precise
23:15:40pixelmaBagder: any plans on adding the "since...", "last 4 weeks" links somewhere again?
23:15:42Bagdern1s: I agree, Zagor's doing the front page changes
23:15:50*Bagder points to Zagor
23:15:56linuxstbBagder: Maybe this is Zagor's domain, but the since-4weeks and since-august-2006 pages are no longer linked to (afaics)
23:16:03linuxstbAh, it is.. ;)
23:16:14Bagderyes, they should be there somewhere I think so too
23:16:38linuxstbIMO, both files and message are required - one normally doesn't make sense without the other.
23:17:25scorcheindeed
23:19:14maxkelleyit's too bad the c200 doesn't have tv-out.. I'm sure it could play videos if it had the screen for it.
23:19:27webguest49badger: is it on the mainpage? or where can i find it?
23:19:44maxkelleywell, it's more like "I wish" instead of "i'm sure" :)
23:19:50Lloreanmaxkelley: It couldn't
23:20:05linuxstbmpegplayer should work well on the c200 - tiny LCD...
23:20:06maxkelleyyeah ^^^
23:20:08Lloreanmaxkelley: The portalplayer chips are too slow to play video at 320x240 at more than about 7-10fps
23:20:30maxkelleyI thought I heard something about video on the nano?
23:20:34sofianbabailinuxstb: can you quickly explain the process to me. so, i'v my diff fyhle. i've registered on flyspray. i create a task. what do i DO WITH my dif file? would i post my modified lang file to the svn repository?
23:20:43Lloreanmaxkelley: Yep, video plays relatively well on the Nano
23:20:48linuxstbsofianbabai: You attach the file to your comments.
23:21:03maxkelleywell, that's PP, isn't it? :)

23:21:29maxkelleyoh, that's true.
23:21:32Lloreanmaxkelley: The Nano is 176x132, a fraction of the number of pixels
23:21:51LloreanOn the c200's screen, I'm sure video will run quite well. But if you tried to have the c200 draw it on a bigger screen, not so much.

23:22:15sofianbabailinuxstb: OK
23:22:54Lloreanmaxkelley: Do you know the actual refresh rate of the screen?
23:22:56webguest46Man, I hope someone makes an auto-intaller for the e200r soon so we don't have to use linux

23:23:18Lloreanwebguest46: The auto-installer will probably still require linux for quite some time.
23:23:23 Quit Arathis ("Verlassend")
23:23:28maxkelleyno, but even moving the menu item selector leaves ghosting.
23:23:31Lloreanwebguest46: I would think that linux would be the easy part, and all the steps be the hard bit.
23:23:40linuxstbwebguest46: That's very pessimistic...
23:23:49linuxstb^That was meant to Llorean....
23:24:29webguest46well my comp. is extremely slow so linux would not work well on it.
23:24:37linuxstbQuite the opposite...

23:25:13dionoea+ you can use a live cd to run linux without needing to actualy install linux on your computer
23:25:18Bagderbesides, you wouldn't need to run it a lot, just for the little installer
23:25:43 Join actionshrimp [0] (n=nn@86.158.13.55)
23:25:44webguest46Sorry for the noob question but what is the live cd
23:25:46Bagderbut still, there may exist windows programmers who knows how to communicate over usb...
23:25:48amiconnLlorean: I'm sure that a large part of the mpegplayer slowness on ipod video is due to the slow lcd updates
23:26:06webguest46true
23:26:15krazykitwebguest46, a liveCD is a cd you boot from; no hard drive interaction takes place
23:26:19krazykitsystem-on-a-disk, basically
23:26:23Lloreanamiconn: It's still not too far off the line shown by the increasing screen size on other portalplayers.
23:26:47maxkelleyI can't wait till oled.
23:26:48webguest46but i would have to either make the cd or buy it, correct?
23:27:01LloreanBagder: I'm hopeful. When I said quite some time, it's based on the fact that most people seem to be hoping for something "tomorrow, or the day after"
23:27:09maxkelleymake or get... it's free.
23:27:15Bagderyeah
23:27:18scorchewebguest46: it is basically an extremely easy way to run linux...download an iso, burn it to a disk, then boot with the disk in, and you are running linux
23:27:19Chrononwebguest46, you can download an image and burn it to disk if you have a CD burner
23:27:32webguest46really?
23:27:42BagderI'm quite pessimistic since not a lot of people are interested in working on/for the e200R, and even less that run windows
23:27:47linuxstbLlorean: Last time I spoke to JdGordon, he was fighting with libusb-win32. Hopefully he'll have some luck.
23:27:48webguest46do you know of any sites where i could learn to do all of this
23:28:01Chronongoogle for "Live CD"
23:28:08maxkelleyyay rockbox.
23:28:10webguest46okay
23:28:19Lloreanwebguest46: I'm pretty sure Ubuntu will mail you a free LiveCD too, I think.
23:28:40linuxstbBut yes, if we fail to get e200rpatcher running on Windows, a minimal livecd image with e200rpatcher installed will be the next best thing...
23:28:46maxkelleyby the time I had gotten mine, I forgot I ordered them.
23:28:48dionoeawebguest46: you can also find USB live stuff (ie you put it on a usb key instead of a CD). That doesn't work on every computer though.
23:28:54maxkelleythat was to Llorean
23:29:00ChrononLlorean: Hahaha. Mail.
23:29:15Lloreanmaxkelley: Just pointing out that if w'46 there doesn't have a burner.
23:29:22scorcheLlorean: "but the delivery may take up to ten weeks"
23:29:28webguest46i am definitly going to try to make the live cd
23:29:44Lloreanscorche: So he can wait to see if windows installation is done before his free CD arrives. :-p
23:29:47amiconnI'd think that it shouldn't be too difficult to get usb communication working on windows, but it'd require a dev with windows and a sansa

23:35:26webguest46there is a text-only, maybe i should try that
23:35:34scorchefeel free to point to another, smaller one
23:35:55webguest46as long as it gets the job done
23:36:02BagderLlorean: how would it be official? you mean adding a link to that somewhere?
23:36:08dionoeayou only need usb support ?

23:36:34Nico_PLlorean: what's the other one ?
