#rockbox log for 2007-10-01

00:00:02nico__ah ok
00:00:24 Quit ender` (" With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they a)
00:01:21nico__the point is that, as i wrote earlier, i can't figure of a way to play all an artist's albums one after the other without getting the tracks/albums mixed up... so i figured that maybe i had to do something with playlists in order to achieve that (right?)
00:02:08Zagornico__: if you browse files, the tracks are sorted in filename order. not track number (tag) order.
00:02:26Zagorcould that be the reason?
00:02:36n1snico__: I have never used the database but if you do it from the filebrowser, just turn on "recursively insert directories" and insert the artist dir
00:02:52nico__Zagor, well i'm using the "database" menu not the "files"... is that what you mean by "browsing files"?
00:03:01Zagoryes
00:03:25Zagorok the database should be sorted by tags
00:03:48nico__well i intended to use the Files menu at the beginning but it seems like the music doesn't appear in there
00:04:04nico__there's only "e200 photos" and "thumbnail"
00:04:22nico__so i figured out i had to use the database
00:04:27Zagorsome default directories on sansas have the hidden bit set, and then rockbox doesn't show them by default.
00:05:04Zagoryou can either remove the hidden bit, or you can change settings->general->file view->show files to "all"
00:05:43nico__thanks
00:06:07 Quit eigma ()
00:06:19linuxstbZagor: Would it be hard to set/clear the hidden attribute from within Rockbox? It's a pain to do it in Linux with mtools...
00:06:45n1swould be perfect in the properties plugin
00:07:27nico__Zagor, well then i'd have to create a playlist? because if i just start playing the artist's 1st album i get the same problem: it never gets to play the 2nd
00:07:46nico__Zagor, and there's no "play all tracks" in the file browser
00:07:54nico__(logically)
00:08:14linuxstbnico__: You can enable the "recursively insert directories" and insert a folder (and all sub-folders) into the playlist.
00:08:35nico__ok thx

00:08:49Zagorsimple
00:09:44Zagorto add it to rockbox, I mean
00:10:19donsdw`/clear
00:11:37n1shmm, why don't we enable recursively insert dirs by default, it always annoys me when my settings are reset for whatever reason and we often have to guide people to turn it on and IMHO it is the expected behaviour

00:14:13kkurbjunyou can see them in the gigabeat build map (rockbox.map) after the .bss section
00:14:34linuxstbn1s: I would agree with that - I can't think of a reason why I wouldn't want to insert recursively

00:16:18Nico_Pdionoea: I don't think the flashing can be removed without being replaced
00:16:25linuxstbHas anyone looked at the sim warnings for gcc 4.2.1? Is it a gcc bug?
00:16:28Ebertis there a status page for the olympus m100?
00:16:37preglowlinuxstb: pretty much looks like it to me
00:17:10n1slinuxstb: I think so too, they aren't popping up when building with recent 4.3 snapshots
00:17:24dionoeaNico_P: why ?
00:17:25 Quit Wiwie (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
00:17:50Nico_Pbecause the flashing indicates the nex position of the track and it's the only sign
00:18:58pixelmaI wondered about that too (and I use it from time to time)
00:19:10dionoeawell the cursor already is on that next position
00:19:25dionoeawhy would it need to be flashing too ?
00:20:06 Quit tumu (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
00:21:39Nico_Pwhen I move a track, I have a cursor indicating the start position, but the only thing telling me where I'm putting the track is the flashing cursor
00:21:46pixelmaI don't know, I would have to try out but for the moment I couldn't imagine how I'm supposed to see at which position the moved track ends up (though the flashing looks a bit broken since the complete line flashes including scrollbar) - but have to take a look

00:23:00dionoeaNico_P: well with my patch applied you'd also have a cursor. It just wouldn't be flashing.
00:23:32 Part erchino
00:24:00Nico_Pdionoea: ah ok, I thought you just removed the flashing
00:24:07dionoeai did
00:24:23dionoearemoving the flashing doesn't remove the cursor. It only removes the flashing
00:24:41dionoeaWell, commenting the 2 lines in playlist_viewer.c and seeing what it changes might explain it better than me :)
00:24:50dionoeaanyway, time to go sleep.

00:49:32fairwayis rockbox for ipod nano video out?
00:50:02alienbiker99read the homepage
00:51:13fairwayipod nano video apple software is perfect
00:51:14peturrtfh ;)
00:51:47peturwhat the hell is a nano video anyway?
00:51:56Bagder3rd gen I guess
00:52:13fairwayyes
00:52:19fairwayI own a ipod nano 3rd gen
00:53:46fairwaydon't you love me?
00:53:57markunI love you
00:54:05fairwayhuhu
00:54:08peturwhy support apple anyway?
00:54:36fairwaybecause they have the best mpeg4 players?
00:54:47Bagderthey do?
00:54:59fairwaydidn't you know?
00:55:03Bagdernope
00:55:22fairwayweird!
00:55:27markunfairway: and you think rockbox could make them even better?
00:56:32fairwaymarkun: yes but it would have a hard time because the apple firmware improved a lot
00:57:16n1sfairway: but does it play doom?
00:57:24peturrofl
00:57:43fairwayn1s: no because doom is ghay
00:58:09fairwaywhy would I want t do that
00:58:35peturwhy do you want to look at video on a small screen?
00:58:55Lloreanfairway: Hate to tell yah, but A) "Best" is subjective, and B) "What the Apple firmware does" is completely irrelevant in here
00:59:14Lloreanpetur: The new Nano is 320x240, same resolution as our gigabeats, just very packed pixels.

02:11:58Soap<DefineByte> anyone think a glossary would be a good idea for the manual? (directory, root etc.)
02:13:05krazykitit would certainly not be a bad idea
02:13:42*Soap thinks that the glossary should contain nothing but links to Computer terminology 101, Windows 101, and even MacOS/X 101. There comes a point where Rockbox _must_ assume some base level of computer knowledge. I'm not going to make the slippery-slope argument, but at what point does Rockbox stop trying to teach people things which are not directly related to Rockbox? We already take a hard-line approach in the forums.
02:14:34krazykitwell, a link to computer 101 would be good, but it might be useful to define such terms as bootloader, OF, and other more technical bits they may see throughout the manual
02:14:51SoapAnother side of the argument I could take is to say "A hard line must be taken in the forums and on IRC because the usefullness of such places approaches zero as the noise level rises, whereas the same can not be said for a well organized manual."
02:16:09SoapYet another side of the argument is to say "By enabling lazy users we are doing nothing but making the support load heavier in the future. A user who can't be bothered to learn a base level of computer terminology w/o having his hand held is not, and will never be, a valued member of the community."
02:16:50SoapIt is a sick game to get into, enabling. I'm not saying we are doing that - but it is something you need be always aware of.
02:17:42SoapI'm torn on why Rockbox receives so many outragious support queries as is. Is it because:
02:18:07SoapA - Soap is an old man and has already forgot youthful ways?
02:18:09 Join Thundercloud [0] (n=thunderc@resnet09.nat.lancs.ac.uk)
02:18:28SoapB - Rockbox makes iPods look cool - and that attracts the most flighty of customers?
02:18:38 Quit HellDragon ("brbrbrbrbbrb")
02:18:50krazykitB is certainly part of it
02:19:07SoapC - Rockbox provides so much documentation that it has created a culture of expectation which is spinning out of control?
02:19:49krazykitthe users you're complaining about probably only read the install part of the documentation and ignore everything else
02:20:39Soapor is it simply D - Rockbox attracts no more loonie of "customer" than any other open-source project, but Soap sees all the Rockbox loonies, while the Gnome loonies are a world unknown to him?
02:21:33krazykitwell, you've obviously never spent any time in #ubuntu :P, but that's a digression
02:22:13krazykitthe fact that so much support is available may give the user a reason (in their mind) to simply ask and expect an answer, instead of spending 10 minutes searching the wiki or manual.
02:23:26 Join HellDragon [0] (i=jd@unaffiliated/helldragon)
02:24:11SoapThat is what I am calling enabling. Through excessive hand-holding never teaching a user to be self-sufficient.
02:24:39 Quit atsea-34 (Remote closed the connection)
02:24:51SoapForget teaching, never /allowing/ a user to be self-sufficient.
02:24:57krazykitthen you need to find the fine line between providing information that may be helpful and enabling it
02:24:57Soapself-reliant.
02:25:25Soapkrazykit: that was the whole point of my 10 minute, 20 line spiel ;)
02:25:41 Join atsea-34 [0] (i=atsea-@gateway/tor/x-88a2ce2afc254e8c)
02:26:09krazykitsoap, you just want the easy answer of "where does one draw the line"
02:26:29krazykit"easy" meaning "who the hell knows", if we look at examples of other support forums.
02:27:22SoapNo, I don't expect anybody to have the line clearly drawn in their mind, much less reach a group agreement on it - but what I _do_ want is for DefineByte to consider those questions when deciding what to put in the manual.
02:27:59krazykitmaybe there just needs to be a line "prerequisite: a basic knowledge of computer-fu"
02:28:20LloreanI think if a glossary is added to the manual, it should only contain words / abbreviations *we* have made up
02:28:47LloreanOr at least, are specifically relative (DAP)

04:26:43scorchethere isnt a general answer for that beyond "a bug"
04:26:58Lloreananimeloe: And I'm hoping you mean "Data Abort"?
04:27:05animeloethis is on the ipod video (5.5g)

04:27:22animeloeif it's error then the hd needs to be checked out :)
04:27:42LloreanIt's pretty important to be as accurate as possible, but with data aborts there's no way to say why it happened without looking at where it happened
04:27:52LloreanWhich is what the .map files made with builds, and the memory address, are for

04:38:59animeloeLlorean: I know it needs to be accurate, but I can't exactly BE accurate about something so random as the freezes and data aborts
04:40:22scorcheanimeloe: why not?
04:40:49animeloebecause in my case the freezes happen every so often
04:41:00animeloeI've yet to reproduce the freezes/errors
04:41:19Lloreananimeloe: And so the sparseness of occurrences prevents you from calling it the proper name, or writing down the address when it happens with a current build?
04:42:02animeloethere is no addy for the freezes
04:42:03LloreanMy point was on accuracy, which relates to _how_ you provide information moreso than what you provide.
04:42:17animeloeand unfortunately I haen't written down the data abort addys
04:42:20animeloeI should though
04:42:21animeloe:)
04:42:34LloreanPlease, use whole words. We have blind and foreign users, and "addy" isn't in many dictionaries.

04:42:44LloreanI'm serious.
04:42:48scorchewhat is funny about that?
04:43:03LloreanWe have channel guidelines for a reason, they may not be necessary for you, but we like to keep this channel usable for a wide audience.
04:43:07animeloebecause I usually see shorthand on irc where I do stuff
04:43:26animeloeI understand

05:07:34Mouser_XAh, nevermind... It appears that it didn't work for you...
05:07:37Mouser_X:(
05:08:02termin8or123hey, I need help installing rockbox
05:08:53termin8or123can anyone help?
05:08:59LloreanMouser_X: It's a viewer like Rockboy
05:09:07Lloreantermin8or123: What step are you stuck at in the manual?
05:09:22Mouser_XDang. I just finished compiling Rockbox (took more than 1.5 hours. My laptop is slow and unstable), but I haven't put the new compile on my Gigabeat yet.
05:09:33termin8or123ok well I drug the rockbox folder into my ipod
05:09:45termin8or123meaning i just dragged the folder in my ipod located in My Computer
05:10:07scorchetermin8or123: i still dont see a question in there
05:10:13termin8or123ok well ill keep going
05:10:15Lloreantermin8or123: Have you read the manual, there are many other steps.
05:10:19termin8or123I knowq
05:10:25termin8or123then i did the boot installed
05:10:27termin8or123the black window
05:10:31termin8or123and typed in i
05:10:34termin8or123and hit enter
05:10:39termin8or123waited, and it said it installed
05:10:47termin8or123then i hit enter again to exit, safely ejected my iPod
05:10:55termin8or123but when i hold select and menu
05:11:05termin8or123it goes to this black screen saying error
05:11:09termin8or123unable to load rockbox
05:11:18scorcheplease use paragraphs instead of using the enter key as commas and periods...
05:11:23termin8or123haha sorry
05:12:01scorchewhat does the "black screen saying error" say?
05:12:05Lloreantermin8or123: Well, the first step would be to figure out what you're doing wrong. Since the manual doens't mention a "Rockbox" folder, and you do mention one, that might be the first clue.
05:12:25Lloreantermin8or123: Have you tried simply doing things *exactly* as they're written in the manual instead?
05:12:44Mouser_XAh blast... It appears I didn't have the patch included (I *know* I put it in, but maybe I updated/re-checked out and forgot to put it in again?)
05:12:48termin8or123well i was following this tutorial on youtube
05:13:24Lloreantermin8or123: Then if you're going to follow other peoples' instructions, contact *them* if they don't work.
05:13:31termin8or123and that "rockbox" folder is the file in the build page for my iPod
05:13:36termin8or123ok I did
05:13:58Lloreantermin8or123: We certainly aren't them. Why don't you go and do it how the manual says, and then once you've done it as it's written, come back and ask for help if it's still not working?
05:14:24termin8or123ok, thank you
05:15:07termin8or123I have one last question though, if you don't mind?
05:15:20Lloreantermin8or123: We don't mind questions, as long as they actually comply with the guidelines.

05:19:09scorcheiboy cannot run on the ipod by itself...are you referring to ipodlinux?
05:20:01termin8or123I'm not sure, beacuse the tutorial told me to install iBoy (it can play gameboy games) too
05:20:18termin8or123would you like a link to the tutorial?
05:20:21LloreanAgain, ask the tutorial person then. iBoy isn't our software.
05:20:22Mouser_XRockbox has Rockboy already.
05:20:37Mouser_X(Rockboy playes GB/C games.)
05:20:42termin8or123o it does??
05:20:48termin8or123i thought I had to install both of them
05:20:51Lloreantermin8or123: Please, just read the manual. It mentions Rockboy.
05:20:57termin8or123thanks
05:21:57Mouser_Xtermin8or123: If you search the Wiki, I think there's a comparison betweein Rockboy, and iBoy.
05:22:24Mouser_X(Well, it mentions iBoy at least. I don't remember if it's comparisons.)
05:22:54termin8or123is the automated installation better than manual?
05:23:24LloreanThey both should work, it's just whichever process sounds better to you.
05:24:23Mouser_Xtermin8or123: I was off. What I was refering to actually links to ipodlinux's Wiki page about iBoy.
05:24:30termin8or123ok
05:24:50termin8or123when i download the automated utility, i just double click the icon that says "rbutilqt"

05:26:11termin8or123*scratch that* ima do the manual installation
05:27:30termin8or123one more question. Which build of the iPod should I use? the current... or the latest one for manual installation?
05:28:01Ebertits interesting that Line Out on a Gigabeat doesnt have the "crossfade" feature

05:28:48Lloreantermin8or123: "Current" is the latest one...
05:29:12RCM123I know the code for a low level format on a Samsung T9
05:29:42LloreanEbert: Are you sure it doesn't? It seems like a feature that would be done entirely in software, since the overlap is in the PCM buffer before being sent to the DAC.
05:29:59Ebertllorean, listening now, it doesn't :D
05:30:14LloreanEbert: But are you listening with headphones too, to see if it's working at all the way you have the settings?
05:30:21Ebertalthough if i plug my amp into the headphone jack, its on
05:30:27termin8or123nope, Ebert there is a current one, and a later version
05:30:35termin8or123http://www.rockbox.org/daily.shtml
05:30:51Lloreantermin8or123: That's the DAILY. ONCE PER DAY. As in "Older than current". It's the latest version of all the archived daily versions.
05:31:07termin8or123oooo
05:31:09termin8or123ok sorry
05:31:11Nimdaeare daily builds still being made?
05:31:19LloreanNimdae: Yes, for archival purposes primarily
05:31:25Nimdaeah ok
05:31:29RCM123The code for a low level format on a Samsung T9 is
05:31:31RCM123left+left, right+right, up, center, down
05:31:39LloreanRCM123: What on Earth does this have to do with Rockbox?
05:32:01RCM123It may help with replacing the firmware with a custom one
05:32:47termin8or123ok, i'm going to try to install now. wish me luck
05:32:49termin8or123lol
05:33:07RCM123lol Rockbox isn't even ready for a T9 yet
05:34:04Ebertrcm123 you should collaborate with yourself more and make a website w/ specs and plans
05:34:05LloreanRCM123: Then post it in the port page in the wiki, where information is gathered.
05:34:15RCM123OK
05:35:49termin8or123omg, it's still not working
05:35:57termin8or123I followed everything it said
05:36:12termin8or123Error! Can't load rockbox.ipod
05:36:18termin8or123File not found
05:36:23Lloreantermin8or123: Then you did not properly extract rockbox.zip to your player.
05:36:31termin8or123i extracted it
05:36:37LloreanI said you did not PROPERLY extract it.
05:36:38termin8or123then dragged it into my iPod
05:36:41termin8or123ok
05:36:45LloreanYou should extract it directly to the player.
05:36:51termin8or123oo ok
05:36:52 Quit jhMikeS (Nick collision from services.)
05:36:56LloreanSo that you have a .rockbox folder in F:\ (or whatever drive letter the player is)
05:36:57Nimdaeyou should have a .rockbox on the root of the drive

05:37:04termin8or123what?

05:38:02Nimdaehas there been much progress on the usb stuff on the ipod?
05:38:03termin8or123in my iPod right?
05:38:17Nimdaetermin8or123: yeah, on the root of the drive of the ipod
05:38:36Nimdaelike if the ipod was drive F:\, it would be F:\.rockbox\
05:38:50termin8or123can it F:\rockbox
05:38:53LloreanNo.
05:38:54termin8or123?
05:38:57Nimdaeno
05:39:01Nimdaethe . is important
05:39:02termin8or123it has to be .?
05:39:03LloreanIt needs to be .rockbox, not rockbox. You cannot rename it.
05:39:10termin8or123ok
05:41:19termin8or123but when i extract it into my iPod
05:41:23termin8or123its still rockbox
05:41:25termin8or123not .rockbox
05:41:34Ebertput a dot
05:41:39termin8or123ok
05:42:23termin8or123i should've just read the manual
05:42:37krazykitseeing as that's in the guidelines, yes.
05:42:42Mouser_XIt is there for a reason...
05:42:46Nimdaeactually, it sounds like when it extracted, it created a directory of the name of the zip, do you have a directory inside of that called .rockbox?
05:43:10termin8or123umm
05:43:19termin8or123yes
05:43:23Ebertwhich ipod are u using
05:43:46Nimdaeok, don't rename the rockbox to .rockbox
05:44:03Nimdaetake the .rockbox inside that and move it to where rockbox is, then delete the rockbox dir so you only have the .rockbox
05:44:11termin8or123ok
05:48:22Nimdaewow, for some reason windows decided to run a chkdisk on my ipod...unless rockbox makes bootex log files too

05:57:43jhMikeSdid you find something wrong?
05:57:46eigmasort of
05:57:53*eigma is typing explanatory message
05:59:30eigmajhMikeS: the m:robe port had a bug where bss variables weren't getting zero'ed. as a result, find_empty_thread_slot() was returning -1 in init_threads (line 1040). this caused major corruption of threading structures and eventually caused a stack overflow much later, in the scheduler
05:59:51eigmaI was thinking about adding a if (slot < 0) panicf()
06:00
06:00:16eigmait would help debug problems like this; on the flip side, increases code and data (the message string) size
06:00:29eigmaand, one could argue that, if bss isn't being initialized, all bets are off
06:00:52jhMikeSeimga: that's fine actually but should really only be needed for debugging purposes since a thread slot should be guaranteed

06:01:37eigmawhat about wrapping the if() in an #ifdef DEBUG.. the only problem is I don't normally build with that, and I don't know that many people do
06:02:36jhMikeSThrere is THREAD_EXTRA_CHECKS. you can use THREAD_PANICF(msg, thread) and #define that to be 1 so no DEBUG needed. Otherwise is space for a string that should never be required.
06:04:09eigmaTHREAD_PANICF is no good because it assumed a valid struct thread_entry exists.. I'll just wrap a panicf in THREAD_EXTRA_CHECKS. thanks
06:04:58jhMikeSah, yes thats true it does. :)
06:05:55eigmafyi, the root cause was that we weren't assigning variables in "COMMON" to ".bss".. according to kkurbjun, this was also the cause of some Gigabeat instability problems

06:50:25eigmaoh, I had an idea
06:50:28JdGordonalso, does that spi transfer function need locking?
06:50:38eigmainstead of passing around "enum SPI_target target"
06:50:50eigmajust pass around pointers to "struct SPI_info"'s
06:51:10eigmaeither let each client define their own, or make extern them from spi-target.h
06:51:23JdGordonwell then everything will need to know about that struct..
06:51:26eigmathat way, we don't worry about array bounds checking or anything like that
06:51:34eigmanope, only about pointers to that struct, which can be forward-defined

06:55:50JdGordonjhMikeS: depends who else wnats to lend a hand :D
06:55:51eigmabut that doesn't mean it shouldn't disabled at init-time

09:10:26*amiconn just had an idea that raises an interesting licensing question
09:12:36amiconnIf someone wants to port an application as a rockbox plugin, and that application has a license which is not gpl compatible, this is not possible atm because it interacts with the rockbox core in a non-trivial way
09:13:56amiconnComparing this with the linux case, where the core is also gpl, but running even closed apps is allowed, there is the difference that the kernel merely loads the app, and it interacts with e.g. glibc which is lgpl
09:14:38amiconnSo if someone wants to port an incompatible app, would it be possible to write a "glue layer", and put this under lgpl?
09:14:46 Join CaptainSquid [0] (n=Miranda@proxy17.netz.sbs.de)
09:17:14GodEater_anything is possible of course
09:17:38GodEater_the thing which confuses me more is the kernel's ability to load non-gpl modules
09:17:42Zagoramiconn: plugin.[ch] is pretty much this glue layer
09:17:51Zagorunless the plugin uses any libs
09:17:53GodEater_which is a much tighter coupling than kernel->app

09:25:02diluted^Is rockbox supported by my pioneer headunit in my car?
09:25:07GodEater_no
09:25:21diluted^That sucks, why not
09:25:30Zagordiluted^: explain "supported"
09:25:41diluted^I manuver through my ipod via my headunit
09:26:10diluted^I can "control" it through the headunit, display artists, genres, etc
09:26:13GodEater_diluted^: no-one has implemented the Apple Accessories Protocol for iPods
09:26:43diluted^It's simply not just a rca-in thing where it plays any source coming from the ipod
09:27:08GodEater_is that a statement or a question ?
09:27:15diluted^that is a statement
09:27:45GodEater_then see my explanation above
09:27:56diluted^I've already tried rockbox, but I was disappointed by the battery life and poor navigation. I understand an ipod is a minuature computer, but I didn't find it very easy to manuver and look for music
09:28:24diluted^Its layed out in a heiarchy type view of features and I just didn't like that
09:28:49GodEater_feel free to submit an alternative design
09:28:55diluted^It would be nice to keep original firmware and layout, but to change colors etc
09:29:11GodEater_diluted^: no that wouldn't be nice - what about people who don't own ipods ?
09:29:14GodEater_we want consistency
09:29:15diluted^I'm not here to bash it but just put in my .0
09:29:29diluted^what do you mean?
09:29:51GodEater_I mean why would a sansa owner running rockbox want to see an iPod UI ?
09:30:01GodEater_or vice versa

09:30:14GodEater_we don't want to keep anything from the original firmware -
09:30:20GodEater_that would sort of defeat the point
09:30:45diluted^I understand but you have to understand, most ipod owners cannot install any of the firmware you guys have made. They want change of colors, new scroll bars and backgrounds etc
09:30:59GodEater_then run iPodWizard, not Rockbox
09:31:31GodEater_*you* have to understand we're not interested in what other people want, we're interested in what *we* want
09:31:43diluted^I understand that
09:32:08GodEater_if other people like what we've done, and want to use it, then great. But if they don't - well no-one's making them use our software.

09:32:21diluted^Honestly does it consume battery life when using rockbox vs. original firmware?
09:32:46GodEater_diluted^: you're showing your lack of research here diluted^
09:33:14GodEater_diluted^: the irc guidelines ask you nicely to have done some homework
09:33:18diluted^I never researched anything or stated that I have. I am just asking questions
09:33:19LinusNi believe rockbox still consumes more battery than the original firmware on some ipods
09:33:44LinusNmeybe even all ipods...
09:33:46LinusNmaybe
09:33:58diluted^I found that even moderatly using my ipod playing music, two hours was nearly maximum compared to 5-6 hours regularly
09:34:04diluted^when using rockbox
09:34:08Bagder1st to 3rd gen I think we're good on, but the others...
09:34:44diluted^And I noticed my harddrive spun quite a bit more, probably of higher amount of alotted cache. But thats where the battery life went off to.
09:34:58Bagdernope
09:35:29Bagderfirst, I don't think the hard drive spun more, then I'm quite sure that's not what eats the battery more in rockbox
09:36:37diluted^Before installing rockbox (keep in mind this was well over a year ago), I rarely ever heard my 5g ipod's hard drive spin. Only on boot up and rarely when it was being used
09:36:53diluted^Could be to due to the fact that I have on headphones listening to music produced by it, but nonetheless
09:36:56Bagderso it loads music by magic?
09:37:11diluted^After installing rockbox I constantly heard it spin, for seconds at a time
09:37:20diluted^Just something I noticed.
09:37:32Bagderyes, and I question the analysis
09:37:49diluted^Then what do you think was making that noise?
09:38:13BagderI'm not saying rockbox doesn't spin up the disk

09:38:52*GodEater_ believes the native firmware spins the drive for shorter periods, but much more often.
09:39:06diluted^This may be true, once again I am speculating
09:39:25Zagordiluted^: when you ran apple firmware you had headphones and didn't hear the disk. when testing rockbox you didn't use headphones and thus heard the disk. and this is for some reason a problem with rockbox???
09:39:26*Bagder doesn't have an ipod... :-)
09:39:27diluted^Rockbox would be great if iPods came with more alotted ram and such
09:39:30morrijrdoesn't battery also depend on the codec used to encode the music?
09:39:46GodEater_diluted^: rockbox uses all the available ram in the ipod
09:39:48Bagderdiluted^: rockbox does not need more ram than the OF
09:40:03Bagdermorrijr: yes
09:40:20morrijrdiluted^: so have you changed the encoding for the music you are listening too?
09:40:24GodEater_diluted^: so it loads as much off the disk as possible into memory, and then stops spinning the disk
09:41:02advcomp2019and the battery life depends how long you use the display too
09:42:21diluted^Not to mention unstable builds and unexpected crashed. I loved how it looked, but if I wanted my music player to become a small computer, I would carry a laptop around with me.
09:42:41Zagordiluted^: I think you are confusing rockbox with ipodlinux
09:42:54diluted^To each his own but this is my perception of it. You guys do a good job of what you are doing and its admirable. But some things are better left alone
09:43:09morrijrdaps *are* small computers. The only thing that differs is the amount to which that functionality is exposed :)
09:43:37Bagderdiluted^: you're clearly not in our target group, but we have tens of thousands of users who're happy with rockbox
09:43:51GodEater_diluted^: so, you've asked a question about using your ipod with your headunit, and found out it won't work. But now you're telling us you wouldn't use it even if it did, because you don't like it ?
09:44:10Bagdertroll is the word
09:45:24diluted^I am telling you that I have tried it before and reset back to original firmware. I thought for some crazy far out reason that it may be compatible with my head unit.
09:45:40Bagderwe would love it to be
09:45:43diluted^My headunit constantly charges the iPod, so I thought power usage wouldn't be an issue. I guess I was wrong and thanks for your help.

10:07:41 Join pondlife [0] (n=Steve@rockbox/developer/pondlife)
10:07:58linuxstbJdGordon: IMO, the sim is a sim, so shouldn't use a mouse if the device doesn't have one. But I don't feel that strongly.
10:08:03JdGordonpixelma: well... the question was a hint to hopefully get someone else to do it...
10:08:25JdGordonmidkay: fs#7864
10:08:42Lloreanlinuxstb, JdGordon: Maybe just add a HAS_PIXEL_INPUT define for it.
10:08:45peturlinuxstb: I have that same feeling, the upper code of sim and target should be as close as possible
10:08:49midkayJdGordon: ah, thanks. sounds nice.
10:08:56JdGordonI dont think i've ever properly read the manual and really dont want to be touching it
10:08:59LloreanThen it can be enabled in any sim for testing, but that doesn't need to be defined by default for any current ones?
10:09:48JdGordonwell, I'm using HAVE_TOUCHPAD for the mrobe, which I thought could be defined for the sim regardless of the target (not charcell though)
10:10:13LloreanI don't think it should be defined for any sims that aren't for a touchscreen target
10:10:22linuxstbJdGordon: That sounds wrong... That will mean the sim will have all features which depend on the touchpad
10:10:37JdGordoneither way the code will be there, so I thought 2 reasons to enable it.. 1) make the sim more an app and more usable, and 2) so when people fiddle with the drawing code they will be able to see if they break the mrobe
10:10:43LloreanIt's not hard to add the define for testing, but the sim should stay as close in terms of I/O to the target as possible
10:10:57linuxstbJdGordon: 2) - people can just test with the mrobe sim...
10:11:11JdGordonlinuxstb: do you really belive people will do that?
10:11:19peturJdGordon: the sim is also used to debug UI code, don't make it any different from target
10:11:53JdGordonpetur: ?
10:12:12amiconnZagor: plugin.[ch] is gpl though...
10:12:15linuxstbJdGordon: They have no excuse not to - it's no different to any other hardware feature, like LCD remotes...
10:12:20LloreanJdGordon: Well, once the mrobe is a target, if they break it they'll know at least by the time they commit, but really if they're modifying code that might break the touchinput they should be checking
10:12:33petur"<JdGordon>either way the code will be there, so I thought 2 reasons to enable it.." <−− the code shouldn't be there if the target has no touch input

10:13:41eddie_nzHey JdGordon I downloaded that patch for fast-forward/rewind scrubbing (As well as the double click patch), compiled it all (into fullzip) and then ran it on my ipod... however I don't know how to activate scrubbing. Any ideas?

11:08:27amiconnImo the bootloaders shouldn't use it because (1) it adds complexity which might be dangerous (i.e. hang the bootloader) (2) it might confuse the OF when we start it

11:12:42LinusNi believe they are unboosted since some time back

11:13:49amiconnargh
11:14:06LinusNsince the dawn of rockbox on iriver
11:14:15amiconnThe PP solves this problem in a different way
11:15:14amiconnset_cpu_frequency() always exists. If HAVE_ADJUSTABLE_CPU_FREQ is not defined, it is called pp_set_cpu_frequency(), and is static void.
11:15:31amiconnsystem_init() calls it in that case
11:15:58LinusNi see
11:16:09amiconnSee, e.g. system-pp502x.c lines 110ff and 242 ff
11:16:18LinusNlooking as we speak
11:16:40LinusNmaybe we should do the same on coldfire
11:17:57amiconnFor PP this is not so much because we need to set up peripherals, but to set a high CPU clock when compiling without adjustable frequency

12:11:02rvvs89Rockbox has nothing to do with the Apple OS

12:11:24novas242001im starting to lik you rvvs89. u amuse me. lol

12:12:57novas242001anybody seen Kingstone lately??
12:13:10novas242001or morphey or vicerman?
12:13:23markunnovas242001: are you sure they hang out in #rockbox?
12:13:27B4gderyou must be confusing this channel with something else
12:13:57novas242001this is my first time in freenode. im not confusing anything.
12:14:01*linuxstb guesses novas242001 is looking for #ipodlinux
12:14:10IsolinearDoes iTunes assign eq setting per track as well as store them?
12:14:17B4gdernovas242001: so who are those persons you ask about?
12:14:24novas242001treeet!! wrong!! linuxstb.
12:14:35linuxstbnovas242001: Then why are you asking about IPL people here?
12:14:43*novas242001 hints linuxstb something about ipodwizard
12:14:57Isolinear(fyi: linuxstb is never wrong...) ;)
12:15:00markunIsolinear: from the ipod classic manual: "If you assigned an equalizer preset to a song in iTunes and the iPod classic equalizer is
12:15:01novas242001its not about the ipl thing bro.

12:15:42linuxstbnovas242001: But to answer your question - Rockbox can be installed on the ipods listed at http://www.rockbox.org and Kingstone never comes here (but I've seen him in the IPL channels sometimes).
12:15:51IsolinearSo you have to manually eq every song you want to have a per-song eq apply to?
12:15:51 Part Spyro_boy
12:15:53Lloreanmarkun: So it applies an EQ to your songs when you set the EQ to "Off" on the iPod?
12:16:02markunLlorean: exactly ;)
12:16:05Lloreanmarkun: That could very easily account for all the times people make claims about sound quality differences.

12:17:26markunmy girlfriend asked me this weekend if rockbox was now a proper religion :)
12:17:26novas242001listen up guys. what if i'd say i want rockbox in the apple os. u guys think tats ever possible
12:17:27*preglow has his skin tingling has he hears the b word
12:17:36Lloreanlinuxstb: I saw you commented on the InfoNES patch at one point. Did the previous version actually run, I tried the most recent patch and it freezes.
12:17:51preglownovas242001: already is, compile a simulator
12:17:56markunnovas242001: ask apple, they work on apple OS, maybe you can convince them to include rockbox
12:18:06linuxstbLlorean: I never tried it on a target, but tried the gigabeat sim, where it seemed to run, but I couldn't make the buttons do anything...
12:18:14novas242001wow. tats gotta be complicated <preglow>
12:18:31Lloreannovas242001: Rockbox is a replacement firmware. It's designed to run on its own, not on top of anything. It can be installed at the same time, so you can dual boot, but that's it.
12:18:33preglowit isn't, but sure
12:18:40Lloreanlinuxstb: Ah, let me check the sim, then.
12:18:45preglowoh, that apple os
12:18:54Lloreanlinuxstb: It hard freezes on target for me.
12:19:03pondlifeLinusN: Testing your patch on H300....
12:19:12linuxstbLlorean: Yes, I read your comment.

12:19:48Lloreannovas242001: I don't understand what exactly you're asking, but if you mean "It can dual boot like iPL" then yes, iPl, Apple OS, and Rockbox are each stand-alone firmwares.
12:19:48linuxstbnovas242001: Yes, apart from the fact it runs on a wide variety of devices, not just ipods.

12:21:30LloreanI'm not joking.

12:22:04novas242001ok
12:23:35IsolinearHey preglow, do you think the scrollwheel accel. patch is anywhere near commit-able?
12:24:38preglowIsolinear: yeah
12:24:49preglowat least it's pretty usable
12:24:53LloreanI just tried the most recent version of the scrollwheel patch that's based on the Sansa method
12:24:57LloreanIt's quite nice on my Nano
12:25:07preglowmine too
12:25:20IsolinearOpinions on what needs refinement?
12:25:23preglowbut mike has some comments on it i'd like to investigate further
12:25:36jhMikeSBuschel gave in?
12:26:04jhMikeS*joking*
12:26:33preglowwell, the latest patch is quite usable
12:26:44preglowi'd rather just understand how hysteresis would make it even better
12:26:47preglowand in what ways
12:27:04jhMikeSbut which sort?
12:27:11 Nick fxb__ is now known as fxb (n=felixbru@h1252615.stratoserver.net)
12:27:20markunpreglow: perhaps just commit it and refine later?
12:27:22jhMikeSyou mean angular?
12:27:37preglowjhMikeS: hell, i don't know, you're the one talking about it :)
12:27:43preglowmarkun: perhaps
12:28:01IsolinearTrue...
12:28:03jhMikeSwell, sansa uses it for starting and stopping the fast mode as well
12:28:22jhMikeSanything I can do to help get the point accross then?
12:28:24IsolinearMight as well take advantage of the fact that it's as useful as it is...
12:28:55linuxstbpreglow: How does it compare to Apple's firmware? (if you can remember...)
12:29:35IsolinearI just used my co-workers OF iPod earlier tonight and it got me thinking about it..
12:30:05jhMikeSI tried my sister's video and it incorporates that angular "window" too
12:30:25IsolinearThe acceleration part is beautiful but it gets touchy when you try to stop.
12:30:36preglowlinuxstb: it's a variation of the same, perhaps accelerates a bit more aggressively but, that's a setting
12:31:02linuxstbWhy does it need a setting? I assume OFs don't have one.
12:31:14LloreanI don't think it needs a setting if we get it right.
12:31:18IsolinearThe OF acceleration seemed ok... Not as good (or customizable) as ours.
12:31:23preglowlinuxstb: well, we're rockbox, but you've got a point
12:31:35LloreanI think ours accelerates quite aggressively, but it still feels fairly accurate (for me, on my Nano)
12:31:44IsolinearBut half of the reason I use RB is to customize everything... :P
12:31:45preglowyeah, it could accelerate less
12:31:57preglowyeah, but you don't need to customize the accelration, really, just get used to it
12:31:59LloreanI actually like where ours accelerates at by default, but that's me.
12:32:01linuxstbShouldn't the aggressiveness depend on the length of the list?
12:32:10preglowshrug
12:32:10Lloreanlinuxstb: Probably
12:32:23LloreanActually
12:32:23IsolinearI just like options..
12:32:47IsolinearRockbox being so flexible is part of what makes it so great IMO.
12:33:02LloreanIsolinear: Yes, but option bloat is a real problem, as well as unnecessary complexity.
12:33:31IsolinearTrue...
12:33:47IsolinearBut I think it wouldn't be unnecessary...
12:33:49LloreanThere's no reason to have options just for the sake of options, so the first attempt should be to try to find a happy medium, and if it becomes problematic then make it configurable.
12:33:59LloreanIsolinear: Do we _need_ it?
12:34:05LloreanOr do we _want_ it?
12:34:21IsolinearScrolling is such a fundamental part of using the device, it'd suck to be stuck with something that doesn't work for everyone..
12:34:41 Quit Jon-Kha ("leaving")
12:34:43IsolinearHow much red are we saving by omitting settings for it anyway?
12:34:47LloreanIsolinear: You're assuming it's impossible for it to be done in a way that works well for everyone.

12:35:04jhMikeSit's that touchy stuff slow mode gets rid of since it cancells acceleration unconditionally at slow speeds so no skipping is allowed
12:35:08LloreanIsolinear: Please, don't play the numbers game. It's not an issue of *just* how many bits are saved.

12:35:42LloreanIsolinear: All I'm saying is that we should save having it for configurable if it proves too hard to please everyone with one setting.
12:35:56Isolinearlol.. That was my point.
12:36:05*linuxstb thinks we all agree...
12:36:08IsolinearI was just assuming that it *probably* would be too hard to do so.
12:36:17IsolinearBut nothing is impossible. :)
12:36:17LloreanDon't make assumptions off the bat.
12:36:34*Isolinear agrees with linuxstb.
12:36:38LloreanI haven't heard many people clamoring for configurability in the OF's scroll, so apparently you can please most people in some ways

12:36:55preglowwe already have too many, and if apple gets away with no setting for this, then so can we
12:37:01preglowwe're already very close to their behaviour
12:37:11LloreanI'd probably put money down that it's possible to get a scroll speed that feels "natural", so that it pleases, say 90% of users.
12:37:18LloreanBut I don't bet, so I won't.
12:37:24jhMikeSis the accel still to aggressive if you set it lower?
12:37:29preglowcmon, let the money do the talking!
12:37:38LloreanjhMikeS: I don't think that it's *too* aggressive, just that it *is*. I like it.

12:38:39IsolinearHow aggressive is too aggressive is kinda relative.. Is it a 20 item list or a 2000 item list, you know?
12:38:48LloreanI test on a 640 file folder, and scrolling it takes seconds, but feels "just right" to me.
12:38:51jhMikeSIs anyone clamouring for the e200 to be configurable? I think I was a bit on the conservative side for acceleration and it could be increased with no loss of control.

12:39:38LloreanjhMikeS: I think the e200 could be a *wee* bit more aggressive, but I haven't played with it too much, I rarely scroll long lists.
12:39:38IsolinearHow many stages of acceleration does the patch have?
12:40:03jhMikeSlike 10 different deg/S settings
12:40:10IsolinearAh..
12:40:19jhMikeSgive or take
12:40:30 Quit JdGordon ("Konversation terminated!")
12:43:19jhMikeSbtw, the sansa wheel can just be flicked kind of fast and you can move through 2000 item lists pretty easily. A little practice and it's possible to pick, say, "M" and move it right there.
12:43:36LloreanI was just doing that with my 600 item list.
12:43:47LloreanNot quite as huge, but I found it quite easy to stop where I wanted

12:56:51jhMikeSOnly thing is, e200 needs setting ranges tweaked but I suppose that's no biggie to pick up on later
12:56:53IsolinearI was.
12:57:34IsolinearTook me 26 rotations to get to the end.
12:57:36GodEater_Isolinear: was there smoke coming off it ?
12:57:45jhMikeSIsolinear: there is a setting in there
12:57:48IsolinearAnd I was rotating pretty freakin' fast.
12:58:04pondlifeIsolinear: Can you compare to the OF?
12:58:14IsolinearBetter.
12:58:17Llorean26 rotations for 1800 songs doesn't seem like much.
12:58:27pondlifeThat's what I was thinking
12:58:29LloreanEspecially since that means the most you should ever need is ~13 for that list.
12:59:07LloreanIsolinear: The OF is better, or the patch is?
12:59:16IsolinearI'm thinking maybe something along the line of "after x number of rotations at full speed, start making bigger jumps"...
12:59:21IsolinearThe patch is better.

13:00:11LloreanLinusN: In Rockbox?
13:00:16LinusNyes
13:00:20pondlifeA side-effect of the gradient bar addition?
13:00:20LinusNit's horrible
13:00:23LloreanNobody's been complaining about it
13:00:33*GodEater_ hasn't noticed a slow down
13:00:41Lloreanpondlife: That should only affect if you're using a gradient though.
13:00:42IsolinearThat gradient is impressive, btw...
13:00:42Nico_PLinusN: is gradient enabled ?
13:00:48IsolinearMakes it look quite legit.
13:00:57pondlifeLlorean: Indeed, hence "side-effect"
13:01:15LloreanNow we need a skinnable list-position bar...
13:01:24LinusNit's "inverse bar"
13:01:55novas242001guys, ill be back
13:01:57IsolinearThe OF scrolling does look a lot smoother however.
13:02:13pondlifeLCD update speed maybe?
13:02:22IsolinearIt's quicker to respond..
13:02:37LloreanMy Nano responds instantly in Rockbox
13:02:41GodEater_preglow: still no random powers ups by the way
13:02:44LloreanI'm a little unclear how much faster you can get than "Now"
13:02:57LinusNthe inverse bar lags quite a lot

13:03:00LloreanNo

13:04:06IsolinearThat'd make a difference.

13:05:14linuxstbLlorean: That's on all ipods?
13:05:36LloreanI don't think I've seen it on anything but one I handled in a store once.
13:05:38GodEater_yeah, when you get to hi-speed in the OF, it starts flashing an enormous letter of the alphabet in the middle of the screen
13:05:41LloreanI've never had a long list on my Nano to check
13:05:43IsolinearCan anyone think of a way to create a massive scrollable list in OF with my 5G without installing iTunes?
13:05:54amiconnLlorean: How would that work with non-latin scripts?
13:05:55LloreanIsolinear: Notes folder
13:05:56GodEater_Isolinear: not really no
13:06:04*GodEater_ stands corrected
13:06:06Lloreanamiconn: I suppose it'll use all available characters in the iPod font, I guess.
13:06:20IsolinearI think I deleted that folder... lol
13:06:24IsolinearPlease instruct.
13:06:39LloreanIsolinear: I believe if you make a folder named "Notes" in the root, and populate it with .txt files, they'll show up in the OF
13:06:46linuxstbGodEater_: That sounds like a new (maybe 5g/5.5g only) feature - I can't recall ever seeing that on my ipod Color.
13:06:50IsolinearWill do.
13:06:56LloreanSo you can just make a script to touch aaa.txt through zzz.txt or some such
13:07:06GodEater_linuxstb: did you ever upgrade the OF on your color ?

13:08:09GodEater_I need a clearer explanation of what you mean there
13:08:11 Quit Wiwie (Connection timed out)
13:08:17LloreanMuch like grabbing a scrollbar in a graphical OS, as I think JdGordon was working on making the scrollbar usable in such a way for the touchscreen ports
13:09:21GodEater_oh I see
13:09:37Nico_PLlorean: it was almost working last time I tried it
13:09:41Nico_Pquite nice
13:09:51preglowGodEater_: good news
13:09:52LloreanGodEater_: We have paged scrolling on some targets.
13:09:58LinusNi wonder why the file browser is so much slower than the menus on the G5

13:10:49linuxstbLinusN: There used to be a bug where the LCD was updated more times than necessary in the file browser, but not in the menus - maybe it's returned... Adding some DEBUGF()s to the lcd_update() function in the sim is an easy way to test for that.
13:12:12GodEater_Llorean: I know - I use it on my H140
13:12:23preglowGodEater_: people in the forum sure seem to shut up, though
13:12:31preglowyou touched your alarm, so i'd be more interested in hearing from them
13:12:33GodEater_preglow: they're bloody useless
13:12:41LinusNthe #7738 patch is certainly an improvement
13:12:44preglowwell, i don't care anyway
13:12:52preglowif no one complains, i'll assume we're all happy and smiling
13:13:14preglowLinusN: agreed
13:13:19preglowanything you'd like to see improved?
13:13:23LloreanGodEater_: I was thinking maybe there could be a way to actually toggle scroll modes, so one could scroll by entry, by page, or using the bar (by percentage, I suppose)
13:13:38LloreanThough it may only be useful for exceptionally long lists, people seem to want to have them.
13:13:39IsolinearVery nice idea.
13:13:40*GodEater_ does "for i in `seq 1 1800`;do touch $i.txt;done" in his notes folder to test in the OF
13:13:49LinusNpreglow: hard to tell, since the scroll is lagging so much :-)
13:13:57preglowright, 5g...
13:14:26GodEater_well "alphabet modes" doesn't kick in there
13:14:34GodEater_at least not with numerically named files
13:14:38LloreanLinusN: Is dircache on or off? I know that it should only affect things when the disk spins down, but every now and then people recommend it as a solution for a "laggy UI" and other people respond that it worked.
13:14:57LloreanI've always assumed that they meant "laggy" as in "entering folders when the disk has spun down" but it's always possible it's otherwise.
13:15:01GodEater_also the Notes feature in OF supports only 1000 entries
13:15:19LloreanGodEater: It tells you this, or it just cuts off?
13:15:31Isolinearlol
13:15:33GodEater_it just cuts off
13:15:41IsolinearDo you really need that many notes? :P
13:15:55GodEater_you're the one with the 1800 entry playlist
13:16:06IsolinearYeah, that's music.
13:16:12LinusNLlorean: same thing with dircache on :-(
13:16:14GodEater_what's the difference ?
13:16:19IsolinearIf I need to write down 1800 notes I buy a notebook... :P
13:16:26GodEater_we're testing scroll speed here
13:16:37IsolinearI needed 60GB of music so I bought an iPod.. ;)
13:16:43GodEater_I fail to see how it makes any difference what sort of list I'm scrolling through
13:16:45LloreanLinusN: Alright, it seemed a long shot but.
13:16:56IsolinearI know, I'm just givin' you crap.. :)
13:19:58GodEater_christ - that gradient feature REALLY slows down the scrolling
13:20:23*amiconn didn't notice a slowdown, but disabled it anyway after checking it out
13:20:27LloreanI've only tested it on my Gigabeat, so not really a fair test.
13:21:01GodEater_hmm
13:21:08amiconnIt either looks crap or hampers readability
13:21:10GodEater_actually that may not be a true statement

13:21:26GodEater_it seems my first test must have been while the cpu was boosted
13:21:33*amiconn uses a sigle colour selector now (on one of his very few colour targets)
13:21:37GodEater_as switch back to "Inverse" hasn't improved matters
13:21:42LinusNyeah, the gradient makes it even slower on the 5g
13:22:07JeusekI said heyhey then youre supposed to say: hey Jeusek welcome
13:23:08JeusekI dont feel wecome :(
13:23:12LinusNGodEater_: i just had the same experience, it wasn't really that much slower
13:23:16Jeusekill go cut myself now
13:23:20GodEater_no much no
13:23:21GodEater_*not
13:23:32GodEater_but once the cpu is boosted it's fine
13:23:38GodEater_not much to notice
13:23:43preglowseriously, what's up with these people we're getting in here now?
13:23:53GodEater_lord knows
13:23:58Jeuseklol im just bored, Im at work
13:23:59LloreanGodEater_: Yeah the gradient seems to reduce responsiveness slightly on my Nano.
13:24:06preglowJeusek: go be bored somewhere else
13:24:55IsolinearAnyone know offhand the refresh rate of the 5G LCD?
13:24:58preglowLlorean: i wouldn't expect calcing a new colour to be THAT slow
13:25:16Jeuseklol I got a ipod 5g can I run both rockbox and ipodlinux?
13:25:31LinusNyes
13:25:41Jeuseksweet Ill do it when I get home
13:25:50Lloreanpreglow: It only slowed down my Nano slightly. I wouldn't expect it to have to calculate anything after you've left the options for it?
13:26:00LloreanWe shouldn't recalculate the gradient every update.
13:26:30preglowyou need to recalc colours on each line of the gradient
13:26:35LloreanWhy?
13:26:38preglowjust saying that shouldn't exactly slow stuff down much
13:26:43preglowwell
13:26:48LloreanCan't we calculate them after the two colors are picked, and keep them somewhere?
13:26:48preglowwhat's the alternative?

13:27:13preglowwhat, just statically alloc on array with the max gradient bar size and stuff the colours there?
13:27:25LloreanMax height of the gradient bar, yes.
13:27:25preglowreally, calculating them shouldn't be so slow it should matter
13:27:44preglowit's just linear interpolation
13:28:06LloreanWell, the 5G LCD already suffers slow updates though. Wouldn't it make more sense to drop the calculation for a relatively trivial increase in RAM usage instead?
13:28:30amiconnThe recalculation is neglectible compared to the additional drawing
13:28:32LloreanI mean with fast scrolling, you're moving the list 200 times a second or so.
13:28:38preglowlike i'm saying, the point is that the calculation should be trivial
13:28:55LloreanAlright. My point is just "Trivial" isn't the same as "Zero" :)
13:29:08preglowif we're actually redrawing the screen 200 times a second, we're doinmg something, very, very wrong
13:29:36Nico_PLlorean: the calculation is actually a decrementation and shifts
13:29:39Lloreanpreglow: We'll be redrawing the text on top of the gradient as many times as we can force it to a second, won't we?
13:29:50IsolinearI'm testing the theory of the OF drawing more than one scroll line at a time for a smoother appearance...
13:30:01preglowLlorean: i'd rather expect we skipped a number of items without actually drawing them, anything else is just wrong
13:30:37IsolinearMy dSLR camera set at 1/800 of a second exposure captured two scroll lines being drawn at once.
13:30:50Nico_PLlorean: I expect drawing the lines is the costly operation, not calculating their colour
13:30:58preglowoh yes
13:31:04preglowbut
13:31:13preglowif the gradient bar actually slows stuff down, i'm sure something is wrong with the code
13:31:20preglowit really shouldn't be noticable
13:31:22Lloreanpreglow: I don't know if we skip or not, but if we do it doesn't *look* like we skip many
13:31:25Nico_Ppreglow: the gradient code ?
13:31:34preglowNico_P: well, that'd be the only new part of the code
13:31:55Nico_Ppreglow: drawing a bunch of lines is probably slower than drawing a rectangl
13:31:59LloreanOn my Nano, the change from enabling the gradient bar is small enough that it might be placebo effect.
13:32:26amiconnpreglow: It sure is slower because of the additional drawing
13:32:35preglowNico_P: is it? drawing a rectangle is the same as drawing a bunch of lines, no? just a ton of memset16
13:33:07preglowamiconn: additional drawing?
13:33:08amiconnThe inverse bar just uses DRMODE_INVERSEVID to draw the text. Coloured/gradient bar first draws the background, then draws the text on top of that
13:33:20Nico_PI don't know, I figured the rectangle was more optimised or something
13:33:40Nico_Pand there's what amiconn says too :)
13:33:41amiconnRectangle and horizontal line are almost equally optimised
13:33:49Nico_Poh good then
13:34:06amiconnBut the solid colour bar can be optimised to be faster than the inverse bar
13:34:20amiconnThe gradient, however, cannot.
13:34:29Nico_Ppreglow: look at the code, the only thing other than drawing the line in the main loop is 3 decrementations
13:34:32peturdoesn't INVERSEVID also have to erase the background first?
13:34:39Nico_Pthere's the RGBPACK marco call too...
13:34:43LinusNthe sim only does one lcd_update_rect() per cursor movement
13:34:45amiconnpetur: nope
13:35:27Nico_Pamiconn: have you looked at the gradient drawing func ?
13:35:39amiconnpetur: Precisely, it uses DRMODE_FG|DRMODE_INVERSEVID, which draws background pixels with the foreground colour and leaves foreground pixels alone
13:35:53LinusNbut it could get away with a lot smaller rect though, if it kept track of what was actually changed on screen
13:35:55amiconnIt's almost exactly the same speed as plain DRMODE_FG
13:36:15Nico_PLinusN: I think TP diffenback posted a patch for that
13:36:19amiconnLinusN: Afaik the list code does that (ask Slasheri)
13:36:36preglowyeah, i think it does
13:36:42preglowanyway, me bbl
13:36:52amiconnOf course line-by-line-scrolling always has to refresh the whole lcd

14:26:05linuxstbkimala: The new ipods are completely new hardware designs, so require completely new Rockbox ports, which no-one is working on.

14:26:52IsolinearShoot man, I totally forgot to port Rockbox to the 6G iPods!
14:26:55IsolinearWhoops..
14:27:08IsolinearLemme just do that real quick.

14:27:36kimalayes...but with rockbox i can install ipod linux
14:27:58LloreanNo, Rockbox and iPod Linux are two completely separate programs
14:28:06LloreaniPod Linux would need to be ported, just like Rockbox would need to be.
14:28:12kimala:-(
14:28:16IsolinearBut with Windows Vista, I can install Redhat!
14:28:20Nico_PGodEater_: by any chance, do you know which version you updated from ?
14:28:54kimalaok, but the port never comes untile some one decrypt the aple firmware..
14:29:11kimala10 years?
14:29:20IsolinearTie the firmware to a chair...
14:29:20Lloreankimala: Exactly. Feel free to work on decrypting it if you own one.
14:29:28IsolinearAnd torture it for all the secrets.
14:29:34DefineByteRegarding the manual: Are there currently any macros to use for PC Keyboard input, like there is for player input? I haven't spotted anything in preamble.tex.

14:31:01LloreanWhat keyboard input needs macros?
14:31:04DefineBytekey-presses are currently formatted the same as everything else
14:31:30DefineBytei, enter. for the rbutil section
14:31:48DefineByteor should they just be formatted inline?
14:31:59LloreanProbably, if they're going to be.
14:32:17DefineByteDodn't you think they should be then?
14:32:39DefineByteshouldn't they appear the same as player button presses?

14:33:34LloreanI don't think it particularly matters whether they are or aren't.
14:33:42dionoeaNico_P: yesterday's changes to the line selector drawing code didn't add (or remove) any code complexity. So I doubt that they could have any noticeable impact on the code's performance (unless you can spot an extra binary and's execution time)
14:34:06Nico_Pdionoea: yes, looking at the changes I realised that
14:34:54DefineByteIt would make things clearer I think :)

14:42:21Lloreanmarkun_: Most everything I've encoded from CD is lossless, and most music that artists give away seems to be MP3 for compatibility.

16:26:52muszekI've installed rockbox on my iAudio X5 like a year ago (love it, btw) and I thought it's time to upgrade... but can't find anything on upgrading in the manual... any help?
16:28:11markun_something wrong with the build server?
16:28:47GodEater_muszek: just download a current build, and unzip it over the top of your old one

16:29:06muszekGodEater_: thank you.

16:29:28pixelmaand maybe delete the old rockbox.iaudio if there still is one in the root of your player

16:32:09bluebrotheris this related to the codes origin or are the coding guildelines more relaxed for codecs?

21:55:56low_lightI see that radio and recording are not properly separated by defines

22:05:02bluebrotheryou can just create a macro like the \btnfnt one. Just replace the \textbf with a different style

23:04:59RaZorbacKmay i annoy you again? is it easily possible to compile my build with my own config.cfg file?
23:05:24petureigma: tried make veryclean?
23:05:32eigmayes
23:06:02eigmaI did a bisection and found which revision broke my build.. and it's pretty unrelated to the bitmap build system.. but I still think there's something wrong with it

23:06:44petureigma: I've had this once when I had a typo in a FILES file (added a file but made a mistake)
23:07:27luke28072ok, In the rockbox database on my 5.5G iPod i have multiples of most songs, however in iTune i have no multiples, whats up?
23:07:45*pixelma is lost in the keyboard files - how the heck do other targets control volume in the radio?
23:08:01eigmapetur: either way, I tihnk it's a bug that one problem causes a completely unrelated symptom
23:08:14pixelmausually I can make senes of it by staring at it for a while and comparing back and forth
23:08:18linuxstb_eigma: What's the problem?
23:08:30eigmalinuxstb_: I'm just looking at the dependencies for the bmp2rb rules
23:08:51pixelmaerrm... keymap, I meant
23:08:51eigmalinuxstb_: you only have the *.c files as outputs..
23:09:49eigmalinuxstb_: in reality, bmp2rb has two outputs: *.h, which is needed by $(OBJS) and *.c (which becomes *.o), which is needed by rockbox.elf through $(BITMAPLIBS)
23:10:12eigmaif make decides to build $(OBJS) before building $(BITMAPLIBS), there is nothing that causes bmp2rb to be run at the right time
23:10:41eigmaam I making sense?
23:10:49linuxstb_Yes, I think so...
23:11:25eigmaI think the "$(OBJDIR)/rockbox.elf" rule in apps/Makefile assumes BITMAPLIBS will be built before OBJS, which is an unsafe assumption
23:11:31linuxstb_But doesn't the dependencies file itself depend on $(BITMAPLIBS) - meaning bmp2rb is run?

23:13:21BagderI don't think it works like that, no
23:13:55roolkulinuxstb: did you see my question regarding fs#7487
23:14:11Bagderbut have two separate rules for .h and .c should be equivalent, afaics
23:14:24eigmatwo rules implies two build commands, which also isnt' the case
23:14:39eigmaI seem to recall that GNU make supports multiple outputs.. *pulls up manual*
23:15:00eigmahttp://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Multiple-Targets.html#Multiple-Targets
23:15:25Bagderah indeed
23:15:40eigmaI suppose it's not quite what I meant, but it has the same effect and is compact.
23:15:56linuxstb_roolku: I would like jhMikeS to approve/reject that patch - he's the one who's done all the recent work on mpegplayer, and is most likely to go back and implement seeking.
23:16:23eigmaI think make will do "ok, let's build abc.h. as a side-effect (and without make knowing) this causes abc.c to get built. when make wants to build abc.c, it sees that it's already there and proceeds". - is that how you interpreted the manual, too?
23:16:31roolkulinuxstb: okie, I'll take to him

23:16:43preglowlinuxstb_: then you should ping him and ask him to have a look, he might not have noticed :>
23:16:47linuxstb_roolku: I tried an early version of the patch though, and didn't like the UI- does it still use a menu to select the seek position, rather than just allowing the user to use FFWD/REW ?
23:17:10linuxstb_preglow: I have done a couple of times, but he didn't seem interested...
23:17:16 Join |Rain| [0] (i=rain@2001:440:eeee:fffb:42:0:0:2)
23:17:33roolkulinuxstb: yes, but it is intention for performance reasons
23:17:44linuxstb_What's the difference?
23:17:59roolkulinuxstb: smaller preview window
23:18:15eigmathough, even that's broken, because if make decides to parallelise abc.c and abc.h (perhaps due to a -j option), we have a race condition because bmp2rb tries to write to both
23:18:19linuxstb_It could just change to a smaller preview window when a long press on FFWD/REW is detected.
23:18:25roolkulinuxstb: maybe I misunderstand - you use ffwd rew, but not in full screen mode
23:19:29roolkulinuxstb: the 'seeking' isn't seeking, it is forwarding to a position in the stream, only done at start time
23:20:10roolkulinuxstb: not at an arbitary position in the stream
23:20:40linuxstb_I thought there were two features - resume and seek?
23:21:21roolkuyes, where seek is a special case of resume

23:21:36peturZagor: it'll be a bit more work, just forcing a close ends up with a file that looks good but chkdsk is not happy with the filesize :(
23:21:39n1show can i redirect consol output from a sim to a file '>' doesn't work...
23:21:52termin8or123hey, how do i make the font bigger in rockbox?
23:21:54linuxstb_roolku: Then I don't understand your comment that 'seeking' isn't seeking...
23:21:59roolkuyou get a preview window and "seek" in 0.5s steps trough the clip, then resume from the position
23:22:05n1stermin8or123: use a bigger font
23:22:13termin8or123how do I do that>
23:22:13termin8or123?
23:22:27n1stermin8or123: you look in the fine manual
23:22:31eigmalinuxstb_: can we get "bmp2rb -c" to generate only *.c and "bmp2rb -h" to generate only *.h?
23:22:32roolkuto me seeking is changing the position in the stream while playing
23:22:35Zagorpetur: right, the close assumes the flush worked
23:22:51peturyeah, I figured that much
23:22:52linuxstb_eigma: Sure, that wouldn't be hard.
23:22:53termin8or123can u link me to which page in the manual, I can make fonts bigger?
23:23:10roolkuthe patch allows resuming at a defined position (remembered or selected in the preview)
23:23:20peturZagor: and the updating of the header of the wav file also failed :(
23:23:22linuxstb_eigma: But would require processing all bitmaps twice, and calling bmp2rb twice as many times... So maybe it's not an ideal solution either.
23:23:42eigmalinuxstb_: you're right. but it's an option and I think it's the only 100% correct solution right now.
23:23:51bluebrothertermin8or123: how about searching the manual?
23:23:52linuxstb_roolku: But whilst playing back a video, you can pause it, select a new time, and then resume playing from that time?

23:24:13roolkulinuxstb: no, unfortunately not
23:24:13eigmalinuxstb_: in response to your earlier comment that DEPFILE depends on BITMAPLIBS: I don't think it changes anything because OBJS doesn't depend on DEPFILE. so make could choose to build OBJS before both DEPFILE and BITMAPLIBS

23:25:15roolkulinuxstb: you could stop and restart and resume from that time
23:25:37peturZagor: no idea. I tried to force writing the header on close but I guess that wants to flush too and fails. Have to dig in deeper

23:29:59roolkuand this patch in svn doesn't stop a better seek mechanism from being implemented
23:30:20ruinedtwiceI've encountered two sequences of problematic rockbox installation on a Sansa e280. I'm going to go ahead and specify the problems I've encountered and the recoveries I've stumbled upon.
23:30:48pixelmalow_light: got volume control in the c200 radio screen working, just not sure if it is the right way
23:31:31 Quit seablue ("life, death, life, death")
23:31:39roolkulinuxstb: the guys will keep working on it, but their efforts are hampered by the fact that it keeps getting out of synch
23:32:27linuxstb_roolku: Yes, I've just been reading the tracker comments. I think they've just been unlucky recently, mpegplayer notmally doesn't get changed at all...
23:34:21roolkuyes, there is one bitmap I can see (the start screen for the preview), which can either be ommitted or changed to the build mechanism
23:34:51ruinedtwiceFirst, manual installation of rockbox daily build for 29SEP2007 using sansapatcher 0.4 with 2.0 bootloader, running on a generic XP box, patching factory shipped firmware 1.02.18a.
23:35:23ruinedtwiceInstallation completed unremarkably, with Rockbox running as expected on the e200.
23:35:32maxkelleypixelma: I've noticed that exiting the radio (holding play/pause) increases the volume.
23:36:15pixelmayeah, didn't notice here but doesn't make me wonder
23:36:16maxkelleycould it be that the radio poweroff signals are being sent to the wrong gpio port, and being sent to the same port as the volume buttons?
23:36:46 Join sin613 [0] (n=pbarton@dsl-134-129-144-51.und.nodak.edu)
23:36:50maxkelleybecause I'm pretty sure that it's on the wrong GPIO port, otherwise we should get audio.
23:36:56pixelmaI think it only has to do with the keymap file, actions and action contexts...
23:37:04maxkelleyoh, ok.
23:37:15maxkelleythinking beyond :)
23:37:21ruinedtwiceAttempt to boot the original firmware via holding down the "left" button while powering up produced this anomaly: a dark wave began to spread slowly accross the screen until it covered the screen completely, with the blue wheel illuminated. Device remained in this state indefinitely, unresponsive to button pushing / holding.
23:38:10linuxstb_ruinedtwice: That's a known issue - there's a long forum thread about it.
23:38:13 Quit luke28072 ("CGI:IRC")
23:38:47ruinedtwiceBefore I describe the recovery from the above described "creeping screen of death" freeze, let me ask: is this a known problem? Has anyone here observed this sequence or heard of it before? I'll wait a bit to see if there's any replies. Thanks.
23:39:07Bagderhehe, linuxstb already replied
23:39:18bluebrotherseems he has quite some lag
23:39:19Bagderit's a bug in the current bootloader
23:40:55pixelmamaxkelley: currently (on all other targets with radio) volume control in the radio screen uses the increase/decrease "actions" (which is up and down in the c200 keymap) that are defined in context_settings. In the context_radio there are other actions mapped to up and down which override these... (iiuc)
23:41:07maxkelleypixelma: ah, ok.
23:41:32maxkelleywell, either way, the actual hardware radio interfacing isn't working :)
23:41:46ruinedtwicelinuxstb_ thanks for the heads up. I'll go and dig up that thread before posting my own recovery story here, just in case my recovery is SOP.
23:42:09pixelmamaxkelley: did you see the patch low_light posted earlier? Radio works with it (for me)
23:42:43maxkelleypixelma: oh, no, I didn't.
23:42:45maxkelleywheee!
23:43:09maxkelleyI shal pull it up.
23:43:13ruinedtwiceOk now I'm going to go ahead and describe the seconnd problematic installation.
23:43:31pixelmamaxkelley: about 1:15h ago
23:44:09maxkelleyI searched radio in fs, to no avail.
23:44:26pixelmahe posted it here in the channel
23:44:52maxkelleyoh, ok.

23:49:16pixelmaI needed to do a make clean - first time compiling without it failed because of the new LANG_* entries somehow
23:50:29maxkelleyhm.
23:50:43maxkelleyI just did an svn update, I'm applying the patch, and will compile in a moment.
23:50:59ruinedtwiceFirst, installation of Sansa firmware 1.03.01 via 01.03.01.exe executed on a generic XP box, overwriting 1.02.18a using "e200fw01[1].02.18a.zip" as source.
23:51:37maxkelleyhm.
23:51:45maxkelleyfor some reason, it takes a long time for patch to work.
23:51:55maxkelleypixelma: what flags do you normally use with patch?
