#rockbox log for 2007-09-28

00:00:07nls"We do not estimate timeframes"
00:04:28preglowmonth, hell no, two, maybe, but probably not
00:04:42preglowonly way to get going is to fire up the code editor and talk to Nico_P
00:04:54preglowasking for deadlines will not further anything
00:06:11Nico_PDark_Apostrophe: hopefully it'll happen sooner than later

00:06:52preglowwe have none, so that's easy
00:07:05Dark_Apostrophelol
00:08:22Nico_PDark_Apostrophe: but it's been about 1.5 years since I opened FS #3045, so I hope on or two months more or less won't be a problem :)

00:08:43Dark_ApostropheNico_P: :o
00:08:53preglowlooking forward to it
00:08:58preglowthat day we'll have to think about other wps issues too
00:09:06preglowlike non-centered text
00:09:43*nls shakes head at FS #7847
00:09:44Nico_Pyup... hopefully it'll make amiconn feel the need to implement viewports
00:10:01Nico_Por maybe he'll have already done it :p
00:10:06preglownls: looks like a closer...

00:14:40preglowwe can plan all we want, apple are trying as hard as they can to prevent us from supporting it
00:14:52preglowthe day someone shows us how to break the decryption, we'll be on it
00:14:59Dreamxtremeo really dam
00:15:18preglowup to us: hell yes
00:15:21preglowbut it's not up to us
00:15:30Dreamxtremewhat about the V2 video 80GB>
00:15:51preglowi think we do support that, yes
00:15:52Nico_Pthe video is supported, yes
00:15:57preglowwe call it 5.5g video

00:18:17preglowhe's not tomal :/
00:18:18Dreamxtremewhoops
00:18:38TMMpreglow: baby steps, baby steps
00:18:47preglow:D
00:19:15Dreamxtremeif i play FLAC will that reduce the battery life?
00:19:38preglowa bit, probably
00:19:44preglowthe disk spins up more often
00:19:49preglowbut it doesn't use much cpu
00:20:20Dreamxtremeok
00:20:40Dreamxtremei wonder if there will be a rockphone
00:21:00preglowthat would mean much work for us, so let's hope not :P
00:21:07TMMDreamxtreme: on a side note: if you use a portable player, with portable earphones, I wouldn't really bother with FLAC to be honest, use 320kb/s ogg, or AAC :)
00:21:34iambenDreamxtreme: in my experience, flac uses much less cpu than higher bitrate mp3
00:21:35Dreamxtremewhy not mp3?
00:21:37iambenon my sansa anyway
00:22:10idnarI use FLAC because I'm too lazy to transcode
00:22:46Dreamxtremeso am i
00:22:50iambeni use flac on my pc and ogg when i put it on portable
00:23:04Dreamxtremei just want to copy and paste
00:23:14iambenbut flac battery time is fine, only problem is the filesizes
00:23:25TMMwhy not mp3? because I just plain dislike mp3 :)
00:23:37Dreamxtremelol#
00:23:50idnarFLAC does seem to use more battery than Vorbis or Musepack
00:23:58idnarpresumably because of hitting the disk more
00:24:14TMMwould it matter anything on a NAND based player?
00:24:15preglowiamben: if you're on a flash player, then yes, flac will use less
00:24:21iambenyeah my experience has been on sansa where there is no disk per say
00:24:22preglowif you're on a hd based player, it will probably use more
00:24:35iambenper se
00:24:36preglowour flac decoder is so cpu efficient it's not even bloody funny
00:24:40iambenwhatever they say =)
00:24:44preglowbut it still needs to spin up the disk often
00:25:11preglowif the disk is a flash chip: then hooray!
00:25:13TMMpreglow: just solder some more memory on your player :P

00:34:02zooookno worries
00:34:18zooookbeen playing around with the decryption functions
00:34:34LambdaCalculus37So, find anything else about from the decryption functions?

00:37:47LambdaCalculus37zoook: Actually, I remember that I posted a TMS320 datasheet on the Archos AV1XX page.
00:38:04LambdaCalculus37http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/ArchosAV100Port
00:38:23zooookso I have to include the functions as data, which sucks, because the debugger can't follow the flow properly
00:38:49zooookahh, but this is mostly a matter of looking at the data flow while debugging it
00:39:22LambdaCalculus37zoook: You at least did one hell of a job by getting the decryption code up in the simulator, though.

00:40:17TMMI can't seem to be able to find anything

00:40:35TMMI saw it TODAY :)
00:40:41TMMYES! :)
00:40:46TMMhow in the hell do you search the wiki?
00:41:04freeeeexgoogle ! ^^

00:41:32TMMpreglow: it DOES have screws :)
00:41:32zooookanyway, it'll be exciting to see how many other block types can be decrypted with this scheme.. I'm guessing FBOOT will
00:41:47TMMI couldn't find it when looking for 'iaudio'
00:42:18LambdaCalculus37zooook: I've been looking at some of the other ZEN/NOMAD players, and they all use a very, very similar rescue mode.
00:42:20TMMwhat did you search for?
00:42:35LambdaCalculus37TMM: CowonIaudio7Info
00:42:46LambdaCalculus37You have to search by page name.
00:42:56TMMhow was I supposed to know THAT? :)
00:43:14pixelmahuh?

00:45:15LambdaCalculus37zooook: The only problem is with the Dell DJ, you can't navigate with a bare PCB. I think the scroll barrel and the buttons need some pressure from the front plate to register.

00:45:42zooookhow is that a problem?

00:49:49pixelma*description
00:49:56zooookanyway, figuring out the decryption scheme would open up some of the zen line to custom firmware
00:50:11TMMpixelma: on the left of the site, there's a search 'button', on the top there's a search 'link' :) the link works, the button that goes to google doesn't really help

00:51:00zooookI bet :)
00:51:28zooookthat's not really my stop, though
00:51:38pixelmaTMM: ah okay, might depend on what you are searching for (and where). The top link is for searching the wiki the other for searching the complere site with the help of google

03:02:43SoapBam2550: it has been over 24 hours now that you have been refered to the published documentation. There IS an expectation that you read it before asking questions. Scorche is not as nice as I am. scorche doesn't always take his medication like Soap does. scorche just started a new job. Don't make scorche angry. ;) Please read the documentation Rockbox has so kindly provided.
03:03:15*scorche pokes soap
03:03:22*Soap giggles
03:03:25Bam2550Oh, i didnt think it would tell me what i twas written in, sorz
03:03:42scorchewell, it uses gcc...what code does gcc compile?
03:04:03eigmaCool Code
03:04:21Bam2550Probably not the right place to ask, but are there any other things like RockBox (example: IpodLinux)?
03:04:34krazykitipodlinux isn't like rockbox.
03:04:41scorchethere are plenty of other projects, and no it isnt the right place to ask ;)
03:04:58scorche(other projects being open source firmwares for embedded devices)
03:06:13Bam2550I probably wouldn't change from RockBox, i was just curious to see what is out there.
03:06:37Soapwell IPL IS like Rockbox in that it is a firmware replacement for a popular DAP. ;) Other than that there is the Arch-Open project and Zune-Linux (!) and that is _just_ about it. Outside the strict realm of DAPs, there is always Handhelds.org and the other Linux-PDA projects, but not a whole lot of this type of thing in general. I think you will find Rockbox is pretty much the top of the alternate-firmware-on-embeded-devices foodchain. Alpha!
03:07:10scorcheSoap: i dont think you can count imaginary firmwares...
03:07:43Bam2550Thanks Soap
03:07:55Bam2550You give good answers.

Although, all of what he now says are macros indeed. It seems to be a recent kick of his, and i am not really sure when he shall give it up. Although, his last line wasnt too long at all

09:45:02RaZorbacKis there any special status in the rb team for translators? I mean if I want to be an official translater, what should i have to do ?

09:47:24spiorfRaZorbacK, ?
09:47:30jhMikeSoh, what about HAVE_MMC and HAVE_HOTSWAP? or you mean the main storage?
09:48:12ZagorI simply want to exclude the ata spindown call (and delay) on targets without hdd
09:48:20B4gderhave_mmc refers to actuall mmc/sd as in the ondios

09:53:35*GodEater_ still has no clue what it's about

09:55:24jhMikeSH10 plays video rather nicely...quite suprising given is doesn't have optimized rendering
09:55:39GodEater_bet it's not a 320x240 screen
09:55:55GodEater_I've restarted it about 5 times now
09:55:59GodEater_it's still working
09:56:01jhMikeSit's 1/2 that
09:56:14jhMikeSbut all the videos I have are way oversized for it
09:56:49GodEater_do you want me to keep going

10:06:14barrywardellIt works on my e200 (but I've never had the problems with the bootloader other people did)
10:06:29jhMikeSI guess it's the number of screens. Shouldn't it be optimized away if no remote exists?
10:06:41*GodEater_ gets the impression that non-rockbox staffers abuse their daps in interesting ways
10:06:48GodEater_otherwise we'd all get the same problems everyone else gets
10:07:17ZagorjhMikeS: yeah, but it gets optimised away even without the macro. so why add a macro?

12:45:21IsolinearGotcha. :)

13:58:22preglowB4gder: why do they do that?

14:00:12preglowi had higher hopes for that and coldfire than seems to be fulfilled
14:02:55jhMikeSpreglow: gcc in stage 3? sounds like a disease progression.
14:03:08preglowmight be too :P

14:06:36jhMikeSnot one single mul or mla used in them
14:06:50n1snothing major, for H300 Tremor was the only thing that didn't fit iram anymore, h100 had size problems with the lcd drivers
14:07:26preglowjhMikeS: right
14:07:32preglowwell, it's all good, arm muls are shit slow
14:08:07 Quit B4gder ("It is time to say MOOO")
14:08:15jhMikeSespecially if they're large numbers. about the only fast mul is x0. :)
14:08:29n1smaybe they'll fix some regressions before release but I guess we can tweak optimizer options etc to make it work better
14:09:18jhMikeSas long as it's C*x it saves big cycles. if it's not by a constant, well nothing can be done.
14:09:59preglowjhMikeS: i don't think x0 differs from x255
14:10:19preglowyeah
14:10:24preglowwe really should try to go 4.3 if possible, though
14:10:40jhMikeSdepends on the arm version but (x << 8) - x still measured better
14:10:43n1sNow why would putting a buffer in iram make this darned midi thingy hang on start?
14:11:16preglowjhMikeS: yeah, you can't beat one cycle
14:11:27jhMikeSbut guess that just rsb r0, r0, r0, asl #8
14:11:31preglowit is
14:12:08jhMikeSI figured that too but even with YUV code which only handled stuff of one byte it was way better to use adds
14:12:36preglowit's a real pity they didn't enhance the multipliers
14:12:38preglowthat's for sure

14:17:03n1syep you 2 (+ some others) did a fine job on coldfire asm dsp :-)
14:18:02preglowjhMikeS: i can assure you they're so fast it's not even funny
14:18:07jhMikeSI never expected that mighty result from it. it came as a shock to watch the boost drop and drop with every use of emac no matter how abusive.
14:19:32jhMikeSpreglow: well, then they're good for more intense sorts of things. I also wonder about the blackfin DSP.

14:24:52preglowoh, that's a nice point, i find a screen that stacked selector bars yesterday

14:28:07pondlifei.e You can't reset the gradient at the start of a list line?
14:29:00Nico_Pwhat do you mean ?
14:29:39pondlifeJust that you can't start a list line with the primary colour, you need to reset at the start of a list item.

14:29:59preglowjhMikeS: just tried the ipod scroll wheel accel patch, seems to work cool here, but is a bit too sensitive
14:30:38preglowand doesn't decay the acceleration factor fast enough when you stop scrolling
14:31:06Nico_Ppondlife: the main problem is that I don't think there's a way to tell the lcd driver that the gradient will need to be on two lines
14:31:22Nico_PI'll take a closer look though
14:31:23jhMikeSpreglow: tell that to the author :). I did quite a bit of arguing about such things and why I implemented various aspects of it.
14:31:58jhMikeSvarious aspects of the interface, not of that patch in particular.
14:32:44jhMikeSI don't doubt it's oversensitive and probably harder to control at low speeds than it should be.
14:32:51preglowyeah
14:32:55preglowthat's my major nitpick
14:33:03preglowacceleration behaviour itself is just peachy
14:33:48jhMikeShe didn't want to do the slow mode and directional hyteresis. without that the sansa's wheel wasn't very controllable at low speed.
14:34:05preglowany particular reason?
14:34:34preglowi'll just read the patch history
14:35:13jhMikeSif you don't have it, then imagine moving just past a click point by a tiny amount. if you reverse direction, it will instantly click back so simple shaking can make it difficult to select an item.
14:35:54hcsproposal: each click selects an item from the list at random

15:04:31webguest81is there a way to do this by creating a wad file for the doom emulator

15:17:36preglowdepends, let me check
15:18:13preglowi would like someone with a video to remove that hw eq, btw, someone please volunteer, there is a patch for it
15:18:18*jhMikeS recommends a 0Hz low shelf filter cutoff
15:18:32IsolinearRemove it?
15:18:58preglowIsolinear: the peaking bands don't work, so it's essentially just a treble/bass control
15:19:07preglowIsolinear: no reason to waste all that space and code on pretending it's an eq

15:19:32preglowjhMikeS: hw issue
15:19:38IsolinearThat explains why I didn't hear as much of a difference as I expected...
15:20:04IsolinearThe only reason I was using it was to take work off of the processor with the software eq.

15:21:37preglowNico_P: that does sounds harder to fix, is it?
15:21:42Nico_Pit is
15:21:44IsolinearIf one of the major complaints about OF sound is that the eq sucks, it would stand to reason that the original eq hardware could be the reason for said suckage.
15:22:03Nico_Ppreglow: I did try something but it didn't work
15:22:13Nico_PI think I'll just leave that case out for now
15:22:18preglowNico_P: if you can't make scrolling work, i'd say screw it and let's do it properly some other time
15:22:23jhMikeSpreglow: well, this usually means to try writing to anything you don't know for sure what it does and watch

15:23:05preglowso i'm going for the next best thing, which is giving ipod video treble/bass controls
15:23:18jhMikeShow do they know there's 5-bands anyway if nothing uses it and it's not doced?
15:23:33IsolinearThat's what I was wondering..
15:23:33preglowit is doced, but the chip isn't a perfect model match
15:23:46preglowso they might have just excluded those parts for cost
15:24:04jhMikeSor maybe they bought bum chips for cheap
15:24:12preglowwho knows

15:27:42peturNico_P: sorry, work overload
15:28:16roolkuNico_P: since you are still meddling with the gradient - i must say I find the linear gradient less visually appealing than the original one - any chance of getting it back?
15:28:38Nico_Proolku: not really, not with both colours configurable
15:28:58pondlifeOK, I have a working, current, H300 bootloader
15:28:59preglowyou can do an exponential gradient with both colours configurable, sure
15:29:04preglowyou'll need libm, but hey :P
15:29:20roolkuNico_P: it used to look like a rounded bar, lit from the top and shade at the bottom, now it is just a smudge between two colours
15:29:20preglowpondlife: commit?
15:29:27pondlifeNo, it'll break iPods
15:29:28hcspreglow: bah, who needs a math library

15:29:52pondlifepreglow: Reverting http://svn.rockbox.org/viewvc.cgi/trunk/firmware/export/config.h?r1=14014&r2=14015 fixes it

17:36:20barrywardellthe first thing the bootloader does is copy itself to IRAM and runs from there.
17:36:28low_lightjhMikeS: yes, in a separate builds I tried GPIO0 and GPIO1

17:40:36barrywardelljhMikeS: yeah, I wonder how that works, given that IRAM gets overwritten first thing
17:41:46jhMikeSnot actually linked as IRAM?
17:41:48low_lightjhMikeS: you might want to check if the c200 system_reboot() works for the e200 too
17:42:21|Rain|barrywardell: I don't think so. I di dhave a patch related to properly picking the OF when the USB cable is inserted, but that's as close as it comes
17:42:48jhMikeSlow_light: is that even connected to anything atm?
17:42:56tumujhMikeS, nls told me that you have worked on the sim recently. would you have any idea why compiling sim with -fprofile-arcs does not create all datafiles on sim exit?
17:43:26|Rain|barrywardell: the main patch skipped checking the SD card in the bootloader, since it's irrelevant and requires interrupts, and doesn't add the button_tick task since it's unused and also requires interrupts to be meaningful
17:43:29barrywardelljhMikeS: it's a while since I've looked at it, but the start of crt0-pp-bl.S copies the whole bootloader to IRAM. That's why the bootloader size also can't grow bigger than IRAM size
17:43:38low_lightjhMikeS: when usb is inserted it reboots & loads the OF
17:44:34jhMikeSlow_light: ok, I've never done it. How to trigger?

17:45:20|Rain|yes

17:46:00|Rain|barrywardell: without the SD interrupt fix, the bootloader froze 100% of the time, and without the tick_add_task fix, the bootloader paniced randomly
17:46:15Dark_ApostrophePANIC, AAAAAAAAA!
17:46:48barrywardell|Rain|: ah, I see. I never experienced those problems on my own e200
17:47:12|Rain|when's the last time you build the bootloader, though?
17:48:02low_lightjhMikeS: add e200 defines to system_reboot in system-pp502x.c and usb_enable in usb-fw-pp502x.c
17:48:37 Quit obo ("bye")
17:48:57tumujhMikeS, i don't think that's the case because all datafiles (.gcda) are missing after sim exit. the compile option is supposed to cause those to be created on exit (i guess it should hook exit routine or such)

18:29:18|Rain|jhMikeS: it freezes with the sandisk logo still on the screen, so it's either freezing in chksum_crc32gentab, system_init, or kernel_init
18:29:31low_light|Rain|: you can use the buttonlight for a visual clue
18:29:42toffe82Nico_P: it is mainly cosmetic, I change the parameter for the display so it should adapt automatically to the size of the display

18:54:43JustJohnnyHi Nico_P, just wanted to let you know I submitted a patch for the Rockboxed theme which adds support for the Sansa c200. The flyspray task id is 7855.
18:55:33Nico_PJustJohnny: do you have a screendump of the result ?
18:55:37jhMikeS|Rain|: Now I have a hard time believing removing lines 1090 and 1091 wouldn't fix the problem. It actually can't work with those enabled in the bootloader.
18:55:52pixelmaJustJohnny: did you correct the backdrop dimensions?
18:56:34|Rain| 1090 // COP_CTL = PROC_WAKE;
18:56:34|Rain| 1091 /* Sleep until finished */
18:56:34|Rain| 1092 // CPU_CTL = PROC_SLEEP;
18:57:05JustJohnnythe dimensions that worked for the simulater where 130x80. I think in the summary of the patch I put 130x90, but the attachment is correct.
18:57:21preglowpondlife: seems to be because it has two entries in settings_list.c
18:57:30pixelmathe c200's screen is 132x80
18:58:13preglowahh, no, not two entries
18:58:17*preglow doesn't get this macro system

19:43:08|Rain|sitwon: have you tried stepping backwards through svn revisions to find which one breaks it? (not at all convenient, but doing a binary search between 2 points might keep you from going mad)
19:43:28linuxstb_jhMikeS: sansapatcher modifies the firmware partition - which IIUC isn't the same as the FAT-formatted partition available in recovery mode.
19:44:17jhMikeSlinuxstb_: so only the one partition is available in recovery mode?

20:21:56sitwonRincewind: you'll have to compile your own like I did
20:22:01jhMikeSRincewind: if you used sansapatcher v0.2 then it doesn't contain the lcd line fix
20:24:17Rincewindhm, so I have to compile my own sansapatcher wich has the lcd line fix but still boots into OF
20:24:55linuxstb_sansapatcher can install any bootloader, not just the one embedded in it - use "sansapatcher -a pp5022.mi4"

20:33:04linuxstb_sitwon: The recommended way to install a bootloader is with sansapatcher, not the normal firmware upgrade.
20:33:55linuxstb_(sansapatcher keeps a copy of the OF in the firmware partition, to enable dual-booting)
20:33:56Rincewindok, I compiled my own bootloader. Any chance to brick my player with that?
20:33:57sitwon:-/ my bad. I assumed it would work the same on the e200 as on the e200R
20:34:44linuxstb_Rincewind: No - you can always use recovery mode (or at worst, manufacturing mode) to restore. But install that file with "sansapatcher -a PP5022.mi4"
20:34:48sitwonRincewind: ofcourse there's a chance. but it's unlikely

22:01:15Spyro_boyyeah
22:01:16Spyro_boyI did.
22:01:27sitwonwhy?
22:01:47sitwonyea, that's probably the problem
22:01:49Spyro_boyUh, well, I imaged my last sansa, but then I got a new one.
22:02:03Spyro_boyso I tried to dd the partition with the image
22:02:09Spyro_boyand then that screwed up the partition table
22:02:13Spyro_boyso I dd'd the entire thing.
22:02:41Spyro_boyany way to fix it?
22:02:45Bagderso put a file named 'sansa.fmt' on the recovery disk
22:02:54Spyro_boysansa.fmt?
22:02:54Bagderit'll reformat your device
22:03:01Spyro_boywhere can I get it?
22:03:12Spyro_boyor is it just an empty file that triggers the reformat?
22:03:15Bagdermake one up, the file name is the magic

22:12:14doktoreasbluebrother, the matter is that my usb audio player doesn't read the mp3 in the ipod

22:12:39Spyro_boyThere we go!
22:12:44Spyro_boyI got it to format! :D
22:12:47bluebrotherdoktoreas: well, then it looks like you have a different issue.
22:12:50pixelmamaxkelley: low_light should know more... ;)
22:13:04bluebrotherin some cases the Ipod doesn't reboot to disc mode properly. It's a known issue.
22:13:15maxkelleyhas he been around lately?
22:13:16bluebrotherit only happens with some builds.
22:13:34maxkelleyI haven't emailed him in a bit, and last time I talked to him, he was pretty busy with work.
22:13:36doktoreasbluebrother, then i am unlucky :D
22:13:40bluebrotherjust use emergency disc mode. Or try until you find a build that works ;-)
22:13:44theclawI wonder how the manufacturers benefit from locking alternative firmwares out?
22:13:58maxkelleytheclaw: erm.. not very well.
22:14:00bluebrotherdoktoreas: nah, not exactly. I'm experiencing this issue too.
22:14:24doktoreasbluebrother, how o you handle this?
22:14:40theclawmaxkelley: "not very well"?
22:14:49Bagdertheclaw: they save themselves from a very small amount of extra support
22:14:50bluebrotheruse emergency disc mode. Or bootloader usb mode (which isn't part of the official bootloader)
22:15:06 Quit sarixe ("Peace")
22:15:16Bagdermaxkelley: afaik, the assumption has been that they do use the same fm tuner
22:15:28theclawBagder: they could simply drop support for alternative firmwares?
22:15:48maxkelleyBagder: I thought that, because a good deal of the e200 is similar/same.
22:15:50Bagdertheclaw: they still get questions and RMAs and things that could be due to the alternative(s)
22:15:50Spyro_boyAwesome! Unbricked!
22:15:53Spyro_boyI think.
22:15:59Spyro_boyHrmm..
22:16:00Bagdermaxkelley: indeed
22:16:13doktoreasbluebrother, bootloader usb mode?
22:16:20pixelmamaxkelley: talked to him here a few hours ago and he'S still logged in
22:16:24fm2bluebrother: hello! Could you guide me? There are many if and such in the Makefile. I read up about the syntax but that were simple examples. The real life is more complex it seems :-/
22:16:37scorche|workSpyro_boy: your device never was bricked..please dont use that term unless it truly is bricked
22:16:39bluebrotherfm2: to add that generated file to the build you need to add it to the FILES file ...
22:16:40maxkelleypixelma: heh, I should've checked that first. I shall pm him.

22:17:14bluebrotherdoktoreas: it's a thing other players have. If you turn on the player with usb connected it goes directly to usb mode.
22:17:21maxkelleytheclaw: no, I mean that they don't really profit from locking it out.
22:17:33maxkelleyexcept for the support thing.
22:17:34theclawmaxkelley: oh, okay

22:18:45Spyro_boyscorche|work, I guess, that's true.
22:18:47fm2bluebrother: that file is generated by the script. Are you sure something should get into FILES (which is in SVN) that is itself not in SVN?

22:22:39Lars_Gmaxkelley: It depends on the factory. but some times either the assembler, or the flash maker have huge programming banks where the chips are preprog before being used.
22:22:54 Quit doktoreas ("Leaving")
22:23:01maxkelleyyep.
22:23:03Lars_Gother times, the devices do have jtag or programming points in the pcb, and needled machines are applied to them after basic construction
22:23:11Lars_Gand before body assembling.
22:23:19Spyro_boyyay. I finally got it.

22:23:54Crash91guys how can i convert a hex to be used in rockbox?? like change it to values for the color selector
22:24:01Lars_Gbut even if the board has test points for that, normaly theyre just flat uncoated copper circles.
22:24:10low_lightmaxkelley: Feel free to work on the tuner. The chip is the same as in the e200 (lv24020). You can enable it in config-c200.h. When I tried it, it compiled fine, but did not seem to work. I haven't tried anything else.
22:24:14maxkelleywhich can be soldered to.
22:24:23Lars_Gthey're connected to a computer with something like a press in the factory that has nedles in the right places.
22:24:25maxkelleylow_light: I just enabled it, and will try and work from there.

22:25:15Lars_GAt least most devices are designed to be reflashable, so they chose serially programable flash chips

22:26:10*Lars_G chuckles
22:26:11fm2bluebrother: besides, the generated file does not exist when the first compile pass is made. So adding it to FILES will do no good.

22:28:50fm2bluebrother: in the second run, only that one file should be compiled. This could be done by an explicit compiler call in Makefile (the name of the file is known). I just don't know how to put all that into the frame.

22:59:40tumuremoving them like i have tried breaks the build because it seems to rely on what the mingw brings in
22:59:43Bagderdoes your sdl-config −−cflags include them?
23:00
23:00:13tumuyes
23:00:13BagderI think it does
23:00:18Bagderso there's the blame
23:00:36maxkelleyis there a way to log GPIO status while in the OF?
23:00:37tumuhow do i go fixing it?

23:01:52pixelmaI can see that in a sim makefile here too, seems to be harmless
23:02:17tumuit isn't harmless when you use -fprofile-arcs
23:02:32tumuinclude -fprofile-arcs in GCCOPTS and LDOPTS and make clean; make
23:02:50tumurun sim and you'll get spam of errors about mismatched version

23:06:05tumuthe version mismatch might get fixed with new version of gcc package
23:06:43tumuor even the entire build might break if the cygwin/mingw versions go too mismatched

23:09:00preglowoh cool, tracker spam...
23:09:06tumuanyway, the workaround of trying to use only cygwin didn't work either
23:09:09Zagorpreglow: again? where?
23:09:19tumuand that is more of a rockbox issue as it relies too much on mingw
23:09:24BagderI think he refers to the comments I removed

23:11:24SoapKlevi: there is instructions on converting movies in the PluginMpegplayer wiki page. While VLC will work, I really do suggest ffmpeg, as it seems more robust with non-standard framerates. If you are on Windows, the WinFF front-end is drop-dead simple.
23:11:42pixelmaKlevi: you have a c200?
23:11:45KleviThanks much Soap
23:11:48KleviYes
23:11:57KleviWhy, will it not work anyway?

23:12:36pixelmaJust wanted to mention that video doesn't work yet (you will only get the audio) because the lcd driver isn't ready for it yet.

23:13:05Nico_PBagder: what's this document ? I read it but's a little too technical for me...
23:13:18maxkelleyI think low_light is right, that the tuner isn't being given power.
23:13:18KleviI see.
23:13:29BagderNico_P: MrH's research on the PP5024 memory controller
23:13:45maxkelleyhowever, the "mystery amp" is being initted, because I can hear it kick in when I go to the fm radio function.
23:13:56tumuBagder, any chance that you would look into trying to build with only cygwin?
23:14:09bluebrotherwe have an anonymous submitter in the tracker? Or was that account deleted?
23:14:17Bagderbluebrother: it was deleted
23:14:44bluebrotherah, ok. I was already wondering about this.
23:14:44Bagdertumu: not likely, I'm only on linux
23:14:48Nico_PBagder: will it help improve the sansa port ?
23:14:49preglowBagder: wow, nice info
23:15:06BagderNico_P: possibly, but note that this info is probably going for most PP chips
23:15:31tumuBagder, you could crosscompile to cygwin, it should give same results
23:15:40 Quit jhulst (Remote closed the connection)
23:15:46Bagderno I can't
23:15:54Bagderwe crosscompile with mingw
23:15:59Bagderand that seems to work fine
23:17:15tumuhmm, does that mean the build environment on windows is unsupported?
23:17:47Bagderas you've seen lots of people use cygwin
23:18:00tumucrosscompiling with mingw would work for profiling
23:18:15tumujust that native with mingw doesn't due to version mismatch
23:19:15Bagderso why not build it cross-compiled or fix the build issues?
23:20:18tumuboth are viable solutions
23:20:36tumulatter would be better as it would make the sim build against cygwin as well

23:31:35BagderNico_P: I'm not sure, but most of those docs have been used to produce the code that we have now
23:31:51Bagdernand, fm, lcd etc
23:32:30Nico_Pwell that's probably a good reason to have something about them in the wiki, isn't it ?

23:33:30Bagdersure, adding things in the wiki is often a good idea
23:33:54pixelmaBagder: now that's weird, if you look at the last green Mini2g sim (built by farsan) and the one right above (by bygg) they show the same gcc and binutils version
23:34:45Bagderindeed
23:34:57Zagoryeah, the versions are not the whole story
23:35:05Bagderis bygg 64bit?
23:36:51Zagoryes
23:37:07Bagderseems to be gcc 4.1.x on 64bit then
