00:00:15alienbiker99do you guys have a list of links that you have at the ready? haha
00:00:15amiconnlinuxstb: Okay, but it works?
00:00:21karlcould i re have thiose link
00:00:29zajacattackhey, does anyone know what happened to mpegplayer?
00:00:31linuxstbamiconn: I only tested briefly, but yes. Should I test more?
00:00:32karlpop up blocker,
00:00:37karlit's kayasha here
00:00:37amiconnThe speedup might be tiny because the single-transfer port is only used for commands
00:00:52bluebrotherkarl: http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/PluginMpegplayer
00:00:52todko1hmm, everytime I try to mount my ipod recently, it just says "Okay to disconnect" so I have to boot into the iPod firmware to mount my ipod >_<
00:00:55amiconnThe bulk data transfer uses the block transfer port
00:01:13bluebrotheralienbiker99: it's rather easy to construct the link to the wiki if you know the page name ;-)

00:01:22amiconnH10 doesn't use that (yet), and that extra wait would cost around 20% speed
00:01:35zajacattacki updated last night to get seeking, and now my vids don't play
00:01:38amiconn(H10 svn doesn't have that wait, ipod color/nano does)
00:02:11karlmpeg 2 movie ?
00:02:14karlcould that work?
00:02:26amiconnlinuxstb: Basically it should not hang or cause graphical glitches. Testing with something gfx intensive would be best
00:02:43amiconn(mandelbrot, plasma, mpegplayer etc. Also test_fps)
00:02:45linuxstbkarl: It needs to be encoded according to the instructions on the page we linked you to.
00:02:52karlok perfect

00:15:04amiconnNow if the block data port also works on H10... I'll hopefully see soon....
00:15:16linuxstbroolku: I've just tried the "new" mpegplayer for the first time. I'm not sure I like the way it takes me to a menu, rather than playing the video...
00:15:20preglownow, how the hell to increase boost ratio manually on ipods
00:15:34preglowlinuxstb: you shouldn't like that...
00:15:44amiconnYou have to scroll *left*
00:15:49amiconnIntuitive, eh?
00:15:52preglowahahhaha
00:16:08preglowi would expect left and right _buttons_
00:16:43roolkulinuxstb: isn't this the same with the archos video player? How else could it be done?
00:16:49 Quit n1s ()
00:17:18linuxstbroolku: Well, if there's a resume point for that video stored, it could resume it, otherwise just play from the beginning.
00:17:24linuxstb(or ask if you want to resume)
00:17:33amiconnvideo.rock asks
00:17:50roolkulinuxstb: but then you wouldn't be able to seek
00:17:57amiconn..and if no resume position is stored, plays right away
00:18:08preglowtest_fps: 80, 316.5 @ 30. 213.5, 848 @ 80. unchanged after patch
00:18:31linuxstbroolku: I would expect to be able to seek from within mpegplayer, after the video has started playing.
00:19:02linuxstb(using the normal left/right buttons)
00:19:24amiconnwhoa!
00:19:27preglowamiconn: isn't this supposed to affect fps?
00:19:37*amiconn got a >3 times speedup in lcd update speed on H10 :D
00:19:51roolkulinuxstb: well, that was the discussion we had the last time - it doesn't seek as such, it sets the resume point
00:19:59amiconnpreglow: It's probably an immeasurable small speedup
00:20:11roolkulinuxstb: which can only be done before playback is started
00:20:15preglowamiconn: nano is already pretty fast, so
00:20:25amiconn113fps @30MHz, and 303fps @80MHz
00:20:32amiconn(that's fullscreen!)
00:20:40preglowres?

00:22:03linuxstbroolku: I understand it's a work-in-progress, it's just a horrible UI at the momment.
00:22:11amiconnArathis: Not yet, but soon
00:22:19Arathisokay
00:22:26amiconnThe big H10 driver is separate, so I have to port the stuff first
00:22:27preglowamiconn: looks stable
00:22:32amiconnpreglow: goodie

00:24:52preglowdoes it?
00:25:26amiconnThe iPod color should be twice as fast as it actually is...
00:25:28linuxstbroolku: If seeking is going to be this slow in mpeg, maybe we should consider a different container format - one that is more suited to seeking on our devices.

00:26:52FhantazmSansa e260 user here and would like to offer myself as a tester.
00:26:58roolkulinuxstb: personally I am very happy with how it is now. I never suddenly get the urge to seek, but I often want to resume halfway into a video after having had to stop
00:27:23FhantazmAbsolutely LOVE whats been done on the Sansa port so far and would like to lend a hand to the developers any way possible
00:27:52roolkulinuxstb: I think introducing new and probably more exotic formats will make it harder for the average user to convert their movies
00:27:59rasherWhy does the manual use customization rather than customisation?
00:28:01amiconnThe iPod color should manage ~45fps @30MHz, and ~125fps @80MHz. There must be some speed config register...
00:28:12preglowamiconn: what, just dump the memory contents to a file?

00:29:10amiconnMaybe the color uses a conservative setup for the type 0 LCD, and the type 1 could go faster?

00:30:42pixelmarasher: I thought there was finally a decision to use -ize (as that can be BE too) and I also wouldn't be surprised to find both spellings in the manual
00:31:00roolkulinuxstb: probably for some - I am quite happy with the way it is. I can see possible improvements with the menus though
00:31:15amiconnargh
00:31:20amiconnThat menu is really annoying
00:31:37roolkulinuxstb: i.e. interrupt playmode to start seeking
00:31:48rasherpixelma: Ah, okay. I didn't know there had been any discussion, and also always thought that BE used -ise rather than -ize.
00:32:46roolkuanyway. let me get the fixes for jhMikes' dodgy video files committed :)
00:32:47amiconnroolku: video.rock allows seeking while displaying the video frame. Playback is paused when you start seeking. A seek bar is displayed at the bottom. When you stop seeking, playback continues at the new positioin

01:02:09amiconnFor command data we can keep that, but if we want to send bulk data via the block controller, this gets in the way
01:02:25amiconnWe might need to switch to the ipod's color pixel format for the big H10

01:24:09amiconnyes
01:24:09jhMikeSgreen blocks should be gone. that was a problem with voice menus not being disabled.
01:24:32amiconnlinuxstb: The resume point is stored *in* the .rvf. We can do that since it's our own format
01:24:36Moreylinuxstb: I think the startup menu and playback menu should be combined into one menu.

01:24:57linuxstbMorey: It's just that it's annoying when I select a file to play, and it doesn't play it...

01:28:12roolkuI'm trying to find the relevant commit

01:29:09*Llorean doesn't like the idea of having to do anything more than click on a .mpg to play it
01:29:11pixelmathe startup menu annoys me
01:29:24LloreanThey should, from a user perspective, work fundamentally similar to songs.
01:30:00pixelmathe rvf player is IMO much more intuitive in that regard
01:30:20MoreyOnce the menus are combined the startup menu could be removed. Then it would be up the user to bring up the menu if they wish.
01:31:28jhMikeShmmm...talk_disable_menus() is called before the startup menu is shown
01:32:02MoreyI think that a 30 second jump by pushing left/right buttons during playback could be done but the jump would take around 4 seconds.
01:33:05roolkujhMikeS: yes, I saw that - is this a problem?
01:33:21linuxstbMorey: I would like to see the start menu go, but if there is a resume point stored for the current file, the user could be prompted with a yes/no prompt to play from the resume point. That's how the other Rockbox video player works IIUC.
01:33:30jhMikeSroolku: that's where it should go...before any menu is shown...it might be the splash
01:33:42Lloreanlinuxstb: I agree.
01:34:13jhMikeSthere's no talk_disable_splash() yet? better get that one in SVN then.
01:34:18pixelmaweird, I don't have that on the M5 where I could also see bright blocks on black before (r15074)
01:34:42jhMikeSroolku: ah, I see the difficulty
01:35:48jhMikeSwe must wait for any splash to stop voicing, then IRAM can be initialized
01:36:21linuxstbMorey: I haven't looked at your code in detail, but do you think the seeking can be made any faster? If not, what do you think about investigating other container formats, ones which are more seeking friendly?

01:52:49LloreanYes, people seem to think AVI is a type of video stream, rather than a container.
01:52:53amiconnlinuxstb: Doesn't mpeg have time stamps in the frames?
01:53:18linuxstbIt does.
01:53:43LloreanOf course, if we picked winff as our "official" conversion tool, we could use AVI as the container, but have it automatically name the output file something else, so the people who really have no idea won't see that it's avi anyway (but anyone who reads the docs or asks would of course be told)

02:11:44amiconn0x70008000 is zeroed - that's probably the fastest possible setting in the bridge...

03:56:16SolignaHey, I just flashed my sansa e200r with rockbox and when I boot it says load main image failed switch to recovery mode
03:58:09Mouser_XI just remembered another question I had. When I attempt to use/view the Rockbox database (I use it for the "History" and the "User Rating"), it says "Dir buffer full" and then displays an empty/blank screen.
03:58:42Mouser_XI tried upping the limits on the directory buffer (I have it at the highest it will go), but it made no difference.
04:00
04:00:17PaulJam_have you rebooted after setting the limits?

04:08:41Mouser_XBut, checking just now, it's working. So apparently I had changed settings *after* updating the database (and then rebooting).

04:22:22Mouser_XSo, if I want to use the database, I have to have a high directory buffer?
04:23:05Mouser_XI've got 30,000+ (easily) files on my Gigabeat. I don't think the directory buffer goes that high...
04:24:13Ebertyou should know, if you've looked in that menu
04:24:35alienbiker99Mouser_X i don't think theres a limit as long as your change it in that menu
04:25:15Mouser_XMy recollection is 10,000 is that the directory buffer can only go to 10,000. I was in a hurry, so I didn't look very closely.
04:25:47Mouser_X(Sorry for the broken sentence. I started one thing, and then changed it, without getting rid of the first...)
04:26:48alienbiker99hmm now i'm not even sure.
04:30:49LloreanI didn't think that the database was restricted by the directory buffer limit

04:33:49JdGordonthere is no limit to the amount of files the db can hold (im 99% sure), but it is limited by the directory limit on the amount of files it can read in each directory
04:34:27LloreanJdGordon: I thought that it browsed by part somehow
04:35:21JdGordon?
04:35:31LloreanI seem to recall a lot of discussion on this.
04:35:41JdGordonof there being a file limit?
04:35:53LloreanOf there not needing to be a list-length limit for database
04:35:59LloreanOr maybe it was dircache.
04:36:20LloreanI remember the term "browsing by part" or something, but don't remember exactly what was meant with it
04:36:41LloreanDatabase does seem to have a file limit too, though I believe it's more a bug than an intended limit.

04:54:33scorcheif you have a question/concern, feel free to voice it
04:54:35TNTalesI'm in over my head with a sansa 260r that windows no longer recognizes, could someone walk me through this
04:54:50scorchewell, what did you do?
04:55:02TNTalesI have one of the Rhapsody players
04:55:22TNTalesand I was following the instructions for
04:55:26TNTalespatching the bootloader
04:55:40TNTalesthere is a part where you run e200tool recover
04:55:56TNTalesand it looks for a driver and for whatever reason it didn't find it
04:56:12TNTalesand now windows says "unknown device" and when
04:56:15scorcheplease use paragraphs instead of hitting the enter key every so often...it makes it much easier to read and is much less spammy
04:56:29scorcheare you doing this in windows?
04:57:06TNTalesas you wish. Windows says unknown device and I am unable to manually install the driver through Device manager because it says "this does not contain information about your device" and yes, it's windows xp sp2

04:58:52TNTalesyes. I did. The think was bricked anyway with the original firmware so I thought I'd try it. How else do you learn?
04:59:30TNTales"thing" was bricked
05:00
05:00:57scorchewhat do you mean?
05:01:00TNTalesI called SanDisk support and they sent me several files and I tried formatting and reinstalling the provided firmware
05:01:13scorchewhat was wrong with it?
05:01:20TNTalesand all it does is say "load main image faild Switch to recovery mode"
05:01:37scorchewell, what did you do originally to get it "bricked"?
05:01:48TNTalesUnhooked it from the PC
05:01:58scorchebefore that
05:02:07TNTaleswas hot swapping and it lit up real bright and poof
05:02:14TNTalesI was adding files and deleting them
05:02:28alienbiker99was it updating the firmware?
05:02:54TNTalesadding some and deleting other that is. I don't believe so, I hadn't told it to upgrade and I didn't have the update/loader installed at the time
05:03:26TNTalesI've had it less than a week. When they told me I'd have to return it I thought I'd try installing rockbox before I shipped it back
05:03:47scorcheTNTales: so did you execute the recover command?
05:04:21TNTalesyes and it goes into a countdown: searching for (driver name) 9 8 7 6 ... so on and then says "not found"
05:04:37scorcheok...lets do something different...
05:04:53scorchehold power for 15 seconds or until the blue light turns off

05:36:39TNTalesneither the box, nor the player bears any indication of which it is, I guess I just assumed since it was new it was the R firmware

08:13:15amiconn(-> bitmaps have wrong format)
08:14:33jhMikeSI didn't do it with make clean, no.
08:16:06jhMikeSI wasn't aware you were actually changing all that yet
08:17:13amiconnOh, and reconfigure
08:17:17 Join Isolinear [0] (n=A@c-76-105-254-119.hsd1.or.comcast.net)
08:17:27jhMikeSah, yes
08:17:49amiconnI changed that so that all of iPod color, iPod Nano, H10 big and small all now use the same pixel format
08:18:51amiconnWhat's left is just experimentation with the block transfer feature, figuring out how to change the timing and what's the fastest possible timing for each lcd controller
08:19:44jhMikeSwhat if the controller can swap and we don't need RGB565SWAPPED? wouldn't that be more efficient?
08:19:45amiconnThe latter can be taken from the datasheet for HD66879R (big H10, Nano, a fraction of iPod color)
08:20:26amiconnA bit. But then all the mentioned targets should be changed
08:21:29jhMikeSI guess figuring that one out is like poking at the IIS stuff
08:21:33amiconnIn fact performance is the same for RGB565 and RGB565SWAPPED wherever precomputed colours are used
08:22:09amiconnJust places with runtime colour computation are (a bit) slower with swapping
08:22:10jhMikeStrue, but what about video output?
08:22:40amiconnBut the ability to use the block transfer outweighs the extra swapping by far
08:23:47jhMikeSis that some special bridge function?
08:24:44amiconnYes. The colour LCD bridge has 2 sets of data ports, one for single byte (or 16 bit word) transfers, and one for block transfers
08:25:41amiconnThe latter needs some things set up beforehand, e.g. how many pixels to transfer
08:25:52jhMikeSany rectangle can be sent?
08:26:33amiconnThe rectangle is set up using the LCD controller and the single transfer port as normal
08:26:57amiconnThe block transfer is just used for pushing the bulk pixel data over
08:27:21amiconnIt can transfer a maximum of 0x10000 pixels in one go.
08:28:12jhMikeSso you can transfer and do something else in parallel. it's a DMA-like operation?
08:28:18amiconnno
08:28:46jhMikeSthe processor is blocked?
08:28:56amiconnIt works very similar to the single transfer port. You write to a register (0x70008b00 in this case), then poll a bit in another register for completion
08:29:45jhMikeSso don't poll. decode the next video lines while it transfers the previous and wait for a completion before setting up the next transfer
08:29:47amiconnIt's faster than the single transfer port, it takes 32 bits of data at once, and as we know since yesterday the timing is programmable
08:30:15amiconnIt's *not* dma
08:30:24jhMikeShow can you poll it then?
08:31:02amiconnwhile (!(LCD2_BLOCK_CTRL & LCD2_BLOCK_TXOK)); LCD2_BLOCK_DATA = *addr++; in a loop
08:32:22amiconnAnd of course pixel calculation can be shadowed for yuv - we do that right now on c200 (with the other bridge which can only do single transfers)

08:41:11 Quit atsea-34 (Remote closed the connection)
08:41:20amiconnI just copied large parts from the color, but for H10 there's a possible optimisation. The whole LCD has less than 64K pixels, so we never need more than one transfer to set up
08:41:53amiconnThat optimisation would also be apply to the nano

08:49:55webbyI find the name of the newly introduced function 'previous_music_is_wps' alittle bit disappointing. It's not clear from the name whether it tests or sets something. I think somethink like 'set_previous_music_to' (or without '_to') would be better.
08:50:57jhMikeSThis clock thing is just weird. Interrupts must be disabled when changing the clocking registers and can be reenabled before the PLL wait. Only thing is, after changing sources, some clocks must be skipped before enabling them again or it locks. Stopping the other core and doing that trick has resulted in 0 trouble playing SPC dual-core with scaling operating. Even the screendump was done with dcSPC running at the same time.
08:51:02amiconnjhMikeS: I guess the block transfer uses a fifo, so the first few writes will require no waiting, until the fifo is filled

09:21:49lymecaWhen converting from HFS+ to FAT32...
09:22:26lymeca...the partition table file is written to the HDD using dd (using GNU/Linux here) with what output destination?
09:22:31GodEater_we should change the name of the process from "converting" to "reformatting"
09:22:33jhMikeSI had a demo copy of nero once
09:22:37lymecaaaa /dev/sdc is my iPod
09:22:57lymecaSo dd if=blah.bin of=/dev/sdc
09:22:57GodEater_lymeca: use /dev/sdc then
09:22:58lymeca?
09:23:01GodEater_yep
09:23:33lymecaGodEater_ I did that and then I ran mkfs.vfat /dev/sdc2 and apparently it worked because I installed ROckbox and put a couple albums on that large FAT32 partition and it worked
09:23:41lymecaBut the sdc2 partition seems to only be ~6.8GB large
09:23:51GodEater_lymeca: which ipod do you have ?
09:23:59lymeca30GB videoi
09:24:10lymecaand fdisk says this: /dev/sdc1 1 3648 29302528 83 Linux
09:24:22GodEater_pastebin please
09:24:23lymecaWhich is odd because it doesn't even report an sdc2
09:24:23Lloreanmkfs.vfat has shown some problems on iPods hasn't it?
09:24:39GodEater_Llorean: on a given partition size yes
09:24:42lymecaWhat should I use to create the filesystem then?
09:24:53LloreanGodEater_: I thought it was on both 5.5Gs? I could be wrong.
09:24:56GodEater_lymeca: did you read the whole wiki page ?
09:25:04lymecaGodEater_: Yes
09:25:09GodEater_Llorean: the wiki page I think only mentions the size on the 80GB
09:25:16LloreanAh, okay
09:25:19GodEater_lymeca: what other tool does it mention then ;)
09:25:27lymecaThe wiki page says not to use mkfs.vfat for partitions over 30GB
09:25:34LloreanIt'll be nice when iPodpatcher can handle the conversions itself
09:25:36lymecaIt mentions Mac OS X commands mostly
09:26:06GodEater_Llorean: linuxstb can't do the 80GB conversion
09:26:20LloreanOh, didn't hear about that. Why not?
09:26:20GodEater_and he's doubtful about the 5.5G 30GBs too
09:26:30GodEater_he doesn't understand large sector FAT
09:26:31*jhMikeS looks and sees he's been working on this crummy kernel for two months (on the 2nd attempt) :\. At least this one's a success. :)

09:26:41GodEater_he is
09:26:50lymecanewfs_msdos -F32 -v iPod /dev/rdiskNs2
09:26:56lymecadefinitely can't run that under GNU/Linux

09:27:09lymecahttp://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IpodConversionToFAT32
09:27:25GodEater_lymeca: the bottom of the page lists another tool
09:27:25JdGordonjhMikeS: thats what you said about the last attmept also :D
09:27:46lymecaIt says to use that for 80GB 5.5 Gen iPods though
09:27:48LloreanGodEater_: Well then, not to say it's "simple" but isn't it "as simple as" figuring out which command line for fat32format works for them, and then copying whatever code is executed when those parameters are used, approximately?
09:27:55GodEater_Llorean: when last I spoke to him about it, linuxstb said he was hoping Zagor could help with the larger sector file systems
09:27:59LloreanI mean, I seem to remember people using fat32format with 80gb ones.
09:28:28Zagorwhat's the issue with large sectors? I thought we fixed that already?
09:28:44LloreanZagor: For converting HFS+ to FAT32 in preparation for Rockbox installation.
09:28:58GodEater_Zagor: linuxstb is trying do this in ipodpatcher
09:29:01Zagorah, there's no linux or windows formatting tool that uses large sectors?
09:29:19GodEater_there's a linux one which does
09:29:23GodEater_I'm not sure if fat32format does or not
09:29:32GodEater_from what linuxstb was saying, I don't think it does
09:29:32LloreanI thought it did, but there's decent odds I'm wrong. :)
09:29:36spkydoes evilg ever frequent irc?
09:29:41GodEater_or *if* it does, he doesn't understand it
09:29:42ZagorGodEater: ipodpatcher should format the ipod? sounds a bit scary to me...
09:29:45GodEater_spky: not really
09:30:00LloreanZagor: Only HFS+ iPods, which must be formatted anyway
09:30:02GodEater_Zagor: it's less scarey than getting newbs through using dd / mformat
09:30:08spkywhat would be the best way to contact him? i tried sending him an email but have gotten no response
09:30:08LloreanZagor: The idea is to no longer need to ask people to use DD
09:30:11LloreanErr dd
09:30:16*Llorean always wants to capitalize that.
09:30:19jhMikeSJdGordon: no, this is different in a big way :)
09:30:25GodEater_spky: that or the forums is the only way I know of
09:30:38Zagorok
09:30:58jhMikeSthe demons plaguing the PP5020 are slain finally
09:31:00GodEater_the only linux tool we know which does it and works reliably is mformat
09:31:04GodEater_but the code base is ENORMOUS

09:44:11Llorean5.5G is 2048 on the 80gb.
09:44:20GodEater_and on the 30GB too
09:44:22LloreanIsn't it 512 on the 30gb, but presents itself to the host as 2048?
09:44:28LloreanOr was it 2048 but presents itself as 512?
09:44:36GodEater_no
09:44:44GodEater_both the 5.5G's present to the host as 512
09:44:52GodEater_the difference is when you run natively
09:45:14LloreanI thought the 30gb's drive was internally 512, which was why Rockbox could be run on it without all the adaptations we had to make for the 80gb?
09:45:28GodEater_er
09:45:32GodEater_I mistyped that
09:45:36GodEater_both the 5.5G's present to the host as 2048

09:45:49GodEater_:)
09:46:29*GodEater_ still hopes someday for someone to manage to explain to him in short words how all the different sector sizes work
09:47:08GodEater_I still don't get how it's 2048 over USB, but 512 on the device, but how you have to read two at a time for it to actually work
09:47:47LloreanI clearly know nothing about such things, because my head tells me it should be impossible to format it.

10:41:39Nico_Phi
10:41:54pondlifeHow's the skipping, I didn't see it mentioned on your git.
10:42:15Nico_Pit's working fine
10:42:32peturTMM: for each sector, there are two bytes in the FAT, one containing only 4 bits (the other 4 belong to another sector
10:42:40pondlifeI tried a git pull origin mob, but it gave me conflicts !
10:42:41Nico_Pbuffering isn't optimal, but that's just a matter of tweaking the main loop in buffering_thread
10:42:52pondlifeSo the back-skip-crash is fixed?
10:42:54Nico_Ppondlife: yeah, I'm sorry it doesn't work well when I rebase
10:43:08pondlifeOK, I'll start anew
10:43:14Nico_PI'm not sure, I didn't have crashes, but maybe you didn't test the right version
10:43:19Nico_Ppondlife: no need to clone again though
10:43:29TMMpetur, hum, really?
10:43:40amiconnmidkay: Hardly makes a difference. Only the command writes are optimized. Data transfers (the vast majority) already were
10:43:59Nico_Ppondlife: just remove your mob branch: git branch -D mob, then git checkout -b mob origin/mob
10:44:22Nico_Ppondlife: and on master you can git pull to update too
10:44:24midkayamiconn: growl.. you've shattered my hopes and dreams!
10:44:56amiconnmidkay: iPod color *will* receive a significant speedup soon - as soon as I figure out the block transfer config registers
10:45:03amiconnExpect a factor of 2....

10:47:00Nico_Ppondlife: I tried your tracks... quite funny :) and no problems
10:47:08amiconnmidkay: "color" for me always refers to the iPod color. For the opposite of monochrome, I always use "colour"

10:48:37midkayamiconn: well, sucky about the video. do you think there's much room for optimization on the video's LCD driver?
10:48:49amiconnI have no idea (yet)
10:49:11pondlifeHmm, git reset −−hard seems to work, but all others fail in some way
10:49:16amiconnIt looks like the broadcom chip is hooked up directly to the external data bus of the PP

10:50:08Nico_Pthat should do the job
10:50:25amiconnWe might have to use the second broadcom firmware image (and figure out *how* to do that first)
10:51:09midkayamiconn: wow, that must be quite a task..
10:51:47LloreanYeah, I thought the big bottleneck on the iPod Video was how fast we can get the broadcom chip to dance for us.
10:52:05*linuxstb wonders if jhMikeS's multi-core threading could handle two CPUs of different architectures ;)
10:52:05LloreanI seem to recall it at least being the bottleneck when we first started.
10:52:05midkaywe're not using it at all, right?
10:52:20Lloreanmidkay: I believe we're using it in a very minimal sense, since we have to use it to get to the LCD at all
10:52:47midkayLlorean: really? i didn't know that.. i thought it was left unused altogether. interesting.
10:53:06amiconnWe get ~5.5MB/sec on the G5, and ~4MB/sec on the iPoc color. The latter should allow for ~10MB/Sec, like the Nano (and now the small H10) already do
10:53:30amiconnAssuming the broadcom chip can handle ~10MB/sec too, that would be a nice speedup...
10:53:46linuxstbI didn't realise the Nano was operating much faster than the Color...
10:53:46Lloreanamiconn: Should this increase, for example, mpeg2 framerate in any measurable way with the move to ~10MB/sec?
10:53:56Lloreanlinuxstb: I think that's of his most recent change.
10:54:07midkayit sure would be a nice speedup.. i wonder if it'll ever manifest itself :)
10:54:08amiconnLlorean: Nope
10:54:15amiconnThe nano already was that fast
10:54:19LloreanAh
10:54:34LloreanIt was using the block transfers before?
10:54:44LloreanOr is that unrelated?
10:55:15amiconnYes it used block transfers before, as well as the color
10:55:33amiconnBut the config regs are set up differently, hence the speed difference
10:55:45LloreanAh
10:55:46amiconn[10:44:55] <amiconn> midkay: iPod color *will* receive a significant speedup soon - as soon as I figure out the block transfer config registers
10:55:47jhMikeSlinuxstb: thinking about it, possible
10:56:15linuxstbjhMikeS: OK, so all we need to do is figure out the architecture of the Broadcom chip...
10:56:20amiconnIf we know how they work, this will allow for extra speedups when not boosted
10:56:44jhMikeSlinuxstb: shouldn't be much trouble ;)
10:57:01Lloreanamiconn: Would that then explain why the H10 was getting worse FPS in mpegplayer than the Nano?
10:58:12jhMikeSlinuxstb: so Video would be a 3 core target then?

11:21:49jhMikeSit's an arm core too or something unique?
11:22:33linuxstbI think it's something unique - Broadcom don't advertise the architecture, and all I've heard about it is that it could be MIPS-based.
11:23:43jhMikeStry different disassemblers on the blob until one makes sensible output?
11:25:01linuxstbAssuming it's not encrypted in some way...
11:26:23jhMikeSI'd expect it to compress less than a typical executable if it is

11:57:48linuxstbHmm, seems Nero are now claiming that faad2 is GPL-compatible again - http://www.audiocoding.com/
11:57:49Nico_Pthe page is meant to be kept up to date even after I commit MoB
11:58:29linuxstbBut not everyone agrees... http://lists.mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2007-October/036621.html
12:00
12:00:05Zagoran advertising clause is definitely not gpl compatible
12:00:29Nico_Ppondlife: I feel the project page (MetadataOnBuffer) should end with "committed to SVN, see the status page..."
12:01:42linuxstbZagor: Yes, but isn't Nero's argument that programs must display a (C) notice anyway?
12:02:18ZagorI don't know. it's a false argument. programs have to do no such thing.
12:02:58linuxstbZagor: 2c) states some conditions where they must... But I agree, not all do.
12:04:24linuxstbBut yes, I don't think Nero's text change helps - I still think it's not GPL compatible.
12:04:37Zagorheh, I've never read 2c in detail it seems :)
12:05:11linuxstbI'm not quite sure what "reads commands interactively" means...
12:05:39 Quit Nico_P (Remote closed the connection)
12:05:46pondlifeNico_P: "Codec failure" and "Couldn't load codec: /.rockbox/codecs/_.codec" (where _ is a block) after all buffered tracks have played and there are more to go...
12:05:57Zagorlinuxstb: I think it means that "ls" does not have to print out copyright everytime you run it. but any program which takes interactive input does.
12:06:07pondlifee.g. with the Cassetteboy album after 44 tracks have played
12:06:13pondlife44/98 that is
12:06:36pondlifeFollowed by a hard crash
12:06:37linuxstbZagor: So how does that apply to something like Rockbox? I would call it "interactive".
12:07:04Zagorgood question
12:07:10linuxstbMaybe we should be extending the "credits" screen to be more explicit about (C) holders and licenses.
12:07:10LloreanI would call Rockbox interactive too.
12:07:26ZagorI'll meditate on it over lunch :)
12:07:31linuxstbEnjoy ;)
12:07:33LloreanWe could just have a "Copyrights" screen too.
12:08:21linuxstbOr "Legal" - I think that's how Apple's firmware calls it, and seems appropriate.
12:08:46linuxstb(it's both (C) and licenses)

12:26:26GodEater_sansapatcher installs the bootloaders
12:26:29linuxstbFrom the links in the manual
12:27:45GodEater_pondlife: which git repo is Nico_P publishing his MoB Rockbox build in ?
12:27:57GodEater_git://repo.or.cz/Rockbox.git <−− ?
12:28:41linuxstbWhen git changes are committed to SVN, is there any way to keep the revision history? Or is always just committed as a single revision?
12:28:58GodEater_I think it'll have to go as a single commit
12:29:06GodEater_I'm not certain though
12:29:08bluebrothergit-svn dcommit commits the original commits individually
12:29:50GodEater_that's if you git repo is connected with the svn repo
12:29:56GodEater_I'm not sure if Nico's done that or not ?
12:31:02bluebrotherRockbox.git has a "git-svn" tag at the top, so I guess it does.
12:31:31linuxstbI'm not saying that it's necessarily a good idea for Nico, just curious...
12:31:41GodEater_I must be looking at the wrong repo =/
12:32:04bluebrotherGodEater_: http://repo.or.cz/w/Rockbox.git?a=shortlog;h=mob (and scroll down a bit)
12:32:09Asteriskk_will the sansafixer tell me if the version of the boot loader I am running is current or will it just happily over write everything

12:32:28linuxstbsansapatcher will just happily overwrite.
12:32:53Asteriskk_ok

12:40:26omrydo I need to backup my sansa to an image before installing rockbox ?
12:41:03bluebrotherholding a backup is always a good idea but installing Rockbox won't delete the data on the player
12:41:18omrywhat about the boot loader?
12:41:37bluebrotherwhat should be about the bootloader?
12:42:02bluebrotherit's in the firmware partition. That doesn't affect the data itself.
12:42:39omryah, the firmware is on it's own partition?
12:42:49omrynice. so I can just create an image for that

12:45:37omryif it's not first, how can the device find it? or does it use the mbr at block 0?
12:45:56bluebrotherby using magic.
12:46:14omrymajik.
12:46:22Asteriskk_I wonder if this is a problem with the player, with the computer or with the firmware, but sometimes when I plug in the c200 I get no response from the computer, i.e nothing turns up, or I get, drive could not be opened due to an IO device error. this is usb 2.0 but I only have usb 1.x, is this the problem?
12:46:26omryso I you change the size of the partition the makic breaks?
12:46:54Asteriskk_the only way I find to fix this is to remove the bettery pack and replace it then replug it in

12:47:24barrywardellusing the color settings for 0x70008a00 and 0x70008a04
12:47:42Asteriskk_I figured it was probably something like that. this board is like six years old lol
12:47:52barrywardellamiconn: yes bootloader is in there too
12:47:59pixelmaAsteriskk_: I then started the original firmware before plugging usb - that worked reliably

12:48:46Asteriskk_is it necessary to remove rockbox to start the original firmware or is there a power setting or something

12:52:51GodEater_omry: flash -> bootloader on firmware partition -> firmware

15:14:58linuxstbBut still very affordable
15:15:02TMMwe could write some integration plugins for the likes of rhytmbox and whatnot, would be nice if we had some integration between OSS desktops and OSS firmwares
15:15:31linuxstbAnd I'm guessing we would need more than 10.
15:15:32TMMlinuxstb, I still wouldn't mind coughing that up :)
15:15:57TMMlinuxstb, why? we could just use the same product ID for all players, from the outside world they'd look the same anyway
15:16:15linuxstbrbutil for example wants to be able to distinguish different models.
15:16:24TMMrbutil?
15:16:31linuxstbThe GUI installer app.
15:16:46TMMpersonally, I'd say that's an implementation detail of rockbox
15:16:55 Quit The-Compiler ("Connection reseted by god")
15:17:06TMMie: we just need a magic file or command on the USB stack that will give out the 'real' hardware it's running under
15:17:27TMMfrom a technical point of view, it makes no sense to distinguish between players
15:17:34TMMfrom the outside, that is
15:17:49bluebrotherit definitely makes sense.
15:17:50TMMrockbox is an OS, the user shouldn't have to care what hardware it's running on
15:18:04bluebrotherjust imagine the Ipod users who want to keep using Itunes.
15:18:20GodEater_fraks
15:18:21GodEater_er
15:18:22GodEater_freaks
15:18:27TMMwe'll make it configurable
15:18:45linuxstbbluebrother: They would need to either use Apple's USB mode, or hope that someone implements the extra proprietory Apple USB commands in Rockbox.
15:19:06bluebrotherdo they have proprietary usb commands? ouch.
15:19:17GodEater_what commands do we believe itunes uses ?
15:19:26TMMhaving a real product ID for rockbox would make it possible to 'auto detect' rockbox from OSS audio programs, like rhytmbox, banshee or amarok, and get some real integration going. like updating the tagDB from software
15:19:29amiconnTMM: It makes very much sense to distinguish players, because of their different features
15:19:32linuxstbIt sets the time on the ipod. Plus there's the XML file it can retrieve with hardware info.
15:19:46GodEater_ah yes
15:19:57TMMamiconn, from client's USB ports POV, what's the difference??
15:20:00linuxstbamiconn: But maybe we could expose a description of the features - so apps don't need to know.
15:20:33linuxstbGodEater_: And I'm sure there are more...
15:20:34TMMamiconn, NOW it doesn't really distingish either, it's just an USB mass storage device
15:21:04linuxstbTMM: Yes, but it can know what hardware Rockbox is running on.
15:21:11linuxstb(based on the manufacturer's USB IDs)
15:21:27TMMbut then it can't know that rockbox is running on it in the first place
15:21:35 Part LinusN
15:21:56Zagorit's not exactly a huge benefit to use our own IDs either, for the same reasons
15:22:23linuxstbTMM: I agree with you, one USB IDs with a proprietory (but obviously openly documented) command to retrieve the hardware capabilities could be a nice solution.
15:22:25Zagorwe can use stock ids and our own strings, for example. so it reads as "Rockbox device" but still uses stock ids
15:22:25 Quit homielowe (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
15:22:40TMMZagor, how so? we'd have a rockbox ID, so applications would know they are talking to a rockbox device, it could automagically update the rockbox tagDB
15:23:07ZagorTMM: well the question is if any current programs do the opposite, and fail if we switch id?
15:23:25Zagorit's easier for us to write new software that works with old IDs than the other way around
15:23:41TMMZagor, I disagree strongly
15:23:42linuxstbAnd I assume we can't modify the IDs for the hardware USB bridges?
15:24:23GodEater_I'm inclined to agree with Zagor
15:24:27TMMZagor, normally devices are detected based on their vendor/product ID, rockbox would be VERY different if we just change the vendor strings send by the device
15:25:14TMMZagor, plus, I believe that with libusb the vendor name and product name are read from a file, like with PCI, so itwouldn't work at all there
15:25:17ZagorTMM: well what if, for example, itunes only work with certain ids. what have we gained?
15:25:19GodEater_we can't change the vendor string though
15:25:28ZagorGodEater: yes we can
15:25:34GodEater_sorry - we can, but we shouldn't
15:25:42GodEater_unless we own the vendor ID we change it to
15:25:49TMMZagor, what use is itunes if you don't use the apple firmware?
15:26:06GodEater_TMM: lots of users still use iTunes to sync their ipods
15:26:06ZagorI don't think the vendor string is linked to the vendor ID in any way. it's just a string the device sends.
15:26:23TMMGodEater_, with OF, yes
15:26:25Zagormany bridge solutions send "false" vendor and product strings.
15:26:27bluebrotherTMM: I bet a lot of Ipod users still want to be able to use AppleOS.
15:26:34GodEater_TMM, no, with Rockbox too

15:27:14GodEater_it'll be something they'll complain about though
15:27:21GodEater_preglow: I can't see a point
15:27:24TMMif we have our own usb/product ID for rockbox, we could do itunes like integration from desktop apps, the same level of integration apple now enjoys
15:27:28bluebrotherTMM: well, if Itunes stops working due to a changed ID the synced music won't work using AppleOS
15:27:44Zagorpreglow: from my point of view it's mostly fun
15:27:44TMMbluebrother, we can't change it in OF
15:28:00GodEater_supplying our own usb/product ID doesn't improve the chances of people making their app work with Rockbox
15:28:05GodEater_it's not required AT ALL
15:28:06bluebrotherTMM: that's overcomplicated. We already can detect the Rockbox build using rockbox-info.txt
15:28:07TMMI'm pretty sure I'm making quite a good case for this idea here, but noone seems to be listening, or noone cares
15:28:14bluebrotherwhich amarok f.e. already uses.
15:28:19preglowwhy do these sell the pids so cheaply?
15:28:24preglowright...
15:28:41Zagorpreglow: because the've got 64k of them ? :)
15:28:41TMMpreglow, you don't get a vendor ID, just a product ID
15:28:43GodEater_there is no requirement I can see for our own PID here
15:28:49bluebrotherTMM: we can't change that in the OF but users will expect to be able syncing using Itunes regardless if they have booted RB or the OF.
15:29:05TMMbluebrother, and, right now, we can't even do that on apple devices
15:29:06Zagordo we know itunes check usb id?
15:29:08amiconnTMM: One of the major reasons for me to use rockbox is that it does *not* need a silly "integration" a la itunes
15:29:20ZagorI was just being hypotethical
15:29:20GodEater_Zagor: no we don't, but we don't no it doesn't either
15:29:24TMMamiconn, it won't NEED the integration
15:29:25preglowbut i've gotta run, later
15:29:29TMMamiconn, it'll be an option
15:29:38linuxstbGodEater_: I'm almost certain people won't be able to use itunes with our usb mode - not unless we implement those features I mentioned.
15:29:39TMMamiconn, a lot of people LIKE that level of integration
15:29:45GodEater_TMM, but that option exists already without the PID
15:30:00bluebrotherI really don't see any advantage in using our own ID. We could simply use our own device description string instead.
15:30:12GodEater_linuxstb: you're probably right

15:31:04TMMZagor, what's the disadvantage? for all intends and purposes a device running RB is a completely different beast than the same device running OF
15:31:06Zagorwhat do you mean that won't work? crap software that doesn't read usb decriptors are to be ignored.
15:31:15bluebrotherTMM: well, I have a small serial-usb converter demo application lying around. And I'm able setting any usb product string I like to use.
15:31:22linuxstbZagor: But a device running Rockbox isn't the same as a device running the OF IMO, so you could argue for new IDs for that reason.
15:31:47GodEater_linuxstb: but the point is having them solves no problems
15:31:48bluebrotherso even without knowing the details about usb I know it's possible to set an arbitrary string as product description, regardless of any file on the host.
15:31:52Zagorsure, but that's purely philosophically.
15:32:10TMMZagor, still, what is the disadvantage?
15:32:42linuxstbGodEater_: Problems might happen with things like itunes (or other proprietory syncing software) that expects to be talking proprietory USB extensions with the device.
15:32:46TMMZagor, and, linux's hal and udev do NOT read the vendor strings, you can only make udev rules based on USB ids, I'm fairly sure of that
15:33:05Zagoryou can use whatever you like
15:33:21bluebrotherTMM: still, you can use rockbox-info.txt for detection.
15:33:23*Domonoky thinks we should postphone this discussion until we got a working usbstack and usbdrivers.. :-)
15:33:24TMMZagor, plus: I'd say that being another device just by changing the vendor string is broken behaviour
15:33:24GodEater_linuxstb: that's hypothetical though - you don't know that yet...
15:33:34linuxstbGodEater_: I accept that ;)
15:33:37Zagorthe point is that linux will create device entries for every endpoint the usb device presents. no matter which usb id it has.
15:33:40TMMbluebrother, that's HORRIBLE way to go about it!
15:33:45GodEater_in which case, Domonoky makes a good point
15:33:56bluebrotherTMM: and why?
15:33:58GodEater_we should stop bothering to talk about it until we KNOW what RB-USB breaks ;)
15:34:18GodEater_I don't get why that's horrible either
15:34:19bluebrothernot being able to distinguising the device based on the ID is horrible too.
15:34:42bluebrotherand as I said, amarok still uses this technique.
15:34:47TMMbluebrother, that would mean that to add support for rockbox to, say, HAL, it would have to check each and every usb mass storage device that's plugged in for a certain file... something NO OTHER device requires, and I doubt that'll happen.
15:34:52bluebrother(rbutil too, as fallback)
15:34:53GodEater_and it's availabe for anyone else to use as well
15:34:54*Zagor goes back to coding
15:35:10bluebrotherwhy do I want to add Rockbox support to HAL?
15:35:13TMMbluebrother, I don't want my desktop app to do the detecting, I want my OS to do that, and take appropriate action when I plug in my device
15:35:30ZagorTMM: take what action, exactly?
15:35:43 Quit mf0102 ("Verlassend")
15:35:45bluebrotherand you do NOT need to check every UMS device −− you match the device first against the ID and look if it's a rockboxable player at all
15:36:31*GodEater_ fails to understand what special action an OS would need to take with a Rockboxable DAP that's different to any other UMS device
15:36:35TMMZagor, I don't know, make coffee for all I care, but I can imagine it would like to start my desktop application, perhaps some yet-to-be-written script/desktop tool that auto-syncs music from a certain folder, who knows? the sky's the limit if we have a device with OSS firmware
15:37:13TMMbluebrother, so, we update a list somewhere, and distributions that are released before we add a new target do... what exactly?
15:37:36TMMI just dream of linux desktop + rockbox device == seamless experience (or CAN be for default users without any hassle)
15:37:39linuxstbTMM: I think in order to convince us, you need a concrete example of something that can only be done if we use our own IDs, or can't be done if we use the original vendor's IDs.
15:38:02linuxstbTMM: And remember some Rockbox devices have hardware USB where we can't change IDs.
15:38:09bluebrotherwell, ID lists are _always_ out of date.
15:38:28linuxstbs/some/about 50% of/
15:38:48TMMbluebrother, and they don't need to be if we have a separate ID for rockbox... it would be always up-to-date as soon as this is done
15:39:10TMMO Well, I'll start this discussion again once rb-usb actually works
15:39:22TMMI don't think I'm getting my point across very well anyway
15:39:33*bluebrother is not convinced and will probably never :)
15:40:35TMMbluebrother, I'll try one more time: what's the point in rockbox saying it's an apple ipod if it is not capable of actually integrating with itunes? itunes will probably just thing this is a broken player and helpfully try and erase it, and recreate the database stuffs...
15:41:09bluebrotherwell, that's a point, but in that case we need to figure out why it doesn't integrate with itunes.
15:41:10 Quit costasc ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
15:41:14GodEater_the key word there is "probably". We still don't know it's true.
15:41:40Zagorbluebrother: because we don't support their weird non-ums mode.
15:41:46linuxstbbluebrother: But I don't think we do want to integrate with itunes. If a user wants that, they can sync with Apple's USB mode.
15:42:03bluebrotherand what are the Apple specific extensions? Setting the clock on the Ipod and retrieving the player info xml.
15:42:04Zagorit's a multi-faceted issue, for sure
15:42:13TMMand even then, we still wouldn't be able to write ANY specific desktop software for use with rockbox, we could come up with anything we damn well please to do, it's all open source. let the creative juices flow :)
15:42:14linuxstbbluebrother: Those are the two I know about...
15:42:19bluebrotherand I bet Itunes will work even if this isn't supported.
15:42:27linuxstbbluebrother: How much? ;)
15:42:51GodEater_TMM: you keep saying that, and yet there are already apps out there that deal with a rockboxed dap.
15:43:00linuxstbBut yes, as has been said, lets wait until we hit problems before solving them...
15:43:47TMMGodEater_, I know but you have to START amarok yourself for it to recognize :"Hey, this is a rockboxed device" while I want to just plug my player into my OS and have the OS know it's a rockboxed device, and do whatever magic we may come up with as being useful
15:44:26GodEater_TMM: then you're not talking about apps.
15:44:26bluebrotherTMM: do you really think it's good to allow the OS starting GUI applications? That should only be done be a gui handler imo.
15:44:27ZagorTMM: still, we don't really need new ids for that
15:44:31pondlifebluebrother: How do I select SAPI in RbUtilQt? The last built one on the wiki (1.0.1 r14595) only has espeak or flite
15:44:46bluebrotherpondlife: you need an updated build, that was added later.
15:44:59pondlifeOK, do you have one lying around...

15:45:12pondlifeCheers
15:45:22Domonokythe usb ids is not really a technical problem.. we can just choose an id.. we could even make a (compile time) option..
15:45:28donutman25hi guys
15:45:32TMMbluebrother, very well, 'gnome-device-manager' whatever you like. point remains
15:45:42donutman25whats up with that new logo on the home page?
15:45:50ZagorDomonoky: it can be a technical problem, both keeping the old and using new ones
15:46:01GodEater_donutman25: what new logo ?
15:46:05Zagordonutman25: there's no new logo
15:46:16bluebrotherTMM: no, as gnome-device-manager is not HAL ;-)
15:46:34donutman25on my pc it have pandemic studio's and electronic arts logo
15:46:49bluebrotherdonutman25: try clearing the browser cache.
15:46:51Zagordonutman25: then your pc is broken
15:47:05GodEater_donutman25: or you're looking at the wrong web page
15:47:06TMMbluebrother, no, but I might want to start a non-gui syncer app from hal, or something... there's just no point in preventing apps like that to be written imho
15:47:25TMMbluebrother, udev, not hal
15:47:30*GodEater_ can't remember the last time anyone expressed an interest in writing such an app
15:47:39donutman25bluebrother: thanks that fixed it
15:47:52linuxstbTMM: Couldn't you do that with the original firmware's IDs? Isn't it up to you how you configure your OS with devices?
15:48:07amiconnTMM: You forget that around half of the rockbox targets has hardware usb where we can't change the id or strings
15:48:24amiconnAnd also, that an own usb ID costs money
15:48:44linuxstbamiconn: But not very much - http://www.mecanique.co.uk/products/usb/pid.html
15:48:45GodEater_amiconn: he's only talking product IDs, not a vendor ID
15:50:53GodEater_in any case, yes, having custom behaviour on your PC when some device is plugged in HAS to be done by the user
15:51:11GodEater_be it a udev, or HAL rule
15:51:26pondlifebluebrother: Any idea what I should set as the TTS executable for SAPI5?
15:51:45*amiconn prefers that the PC does nothing special when plugging an usb msd apart from automounting
15:51:56*linuxstb prefers that it doesn't even automount
15:51:58*GodEater_ agrees with amiconn for once :)
15:52:00TMMGodEater_, but it would be possible to pre-configure some sane rules, like some of the end-user distro's do
15:52:07pondlifeSAPI default gives me an "Path to TTS is wrong!" error.
15:52:10GodEater_TMM: such as ?
15:52:12Domonokypondlife : point it to the rocbox sapi_voice.vbs script..
15:52:24TMMGodEater_, ubuntu does for instance
15:52:36ZagorTMM: as I keep saying, udev can string match. separate id is not technically necesary for udev handling.
15:52:47pondlifeDomonoky: OK... could that be built-in somehow?
15:52:51Zagorit's still worth discussing, but don't focus udev:ability on this
15:52:58GodEater_and I still don't want my OS doing anything beyond mounting it, if that.
15:53:26Domonokypondlife: yes, thats possible, but i didnt founf a good way to do it..
15:53:40TMMGodEater_, this is not taking away that option, this is ADDING an option for users that want it, end-users like seamless experiences

15:54:06bluebrotherDomonoky: adding it as resource and extract it to %TEMP% before running the script?
15:54:19GodEater_TMM: but if you're talking of including this in "end user distros", then you have to decide what the action is that makes the most sense to ALL users
15:54:23GodEater_TMM what action is that ?
15:54:28 Part Daenyth ("Leaving")
15:54:39TMMGodEater_, starting rhytmbox, and importing the playlists
15:54:58TMMGodEater_, that is what end-users would expect to happen
15:55:19Domonokybluebrother: thats possible, you only have to make sure, that you onlay do this on windows :-)
15:55:52bluebrotherand what is with end-users expecting amarok to open?
15:56:11pondlifeDomonoky: Is it possible to generate directory .talk files, but not file .talk files?
15:56:17GodEater_does anyone actually *use* Rhythmbox ? :)
15:56:26*bluebrother doesn't :P
15:56:31TMMwhy would you have to start in manually, if the only thing you are going to do is start it, then plug in the device?
15:56:36Crash91GodEater_: i used to
15:56:39TMM*I* use rhytmbox
15:56:47linuxstbTMM: So you're talking about starting applications that will _only_ work with a Rockbox'ed DAP, and not with a DAP's original firmware?
15:56:50pondlifeWhat's rhythmbox?? ;)
15:56:51Domonokypondlife: if there is no option for it.. no.. but it would be easy to add..
15:56:52GodEater_I guess someone has to :)
15:57:08pondlifeDomonoky: OK, shall I FlySpray it? or is this conversation enough
15:57:11Crash91GodEater_:Ive switched to banshee now =)
15:57:11TMMlinuxstb, apps that can use specific funtionality yet-to-be-developed for rockbox, yes
15:57:14GodEater_it's like, the suckiest music management thing ever IMO, but I guess whatever blows your hair back ;)
15:57:35linuxstbTMM: What I mean is, what is the harm in those apps being started if the device isn't running Rockbox?
15:57:42Crash91not really...it was the only app with mp3 support bundeled with Fedora 7
15:57:45Domonokypondlife: put it on flyspray or on the rbutil wiki page.. under task for milestone 2 :-) +
15:57:52pondlifeOK, wiki it is
15:58:04Domonokyor else i will forget it.. :-)

15:58:34TMMGodEater_, I like simple things :)
15:58:34*Crash91 wonders why GodEater doesnt use Banshee
15:58:46GodEater_Crash91: never heard of it till 30 seconds ago ;)
15:58:48TMMlinuxstb, that's not a big problem, but the app NOT starting is :)
15:58:51linuxstbGodEater_: I've never used amarok (I've also never seen it...)
15:59:06GodEater_I quite like amarok :)
15:59:11Domonokyanother good extension for the talk file generation would be an option to only voice certain file types..
15:59:14TMMand completely back off-topic :)
15:59:22karashataAmarok is a nice app, IMO, but right now I'm in Windows...

16:01:22*GodEater_ doesn't understand the logic behind the gstreamer mess
16:01:27Crash91ah yes, ugly =P
16:01:28*karashata feels left out of all the linux discussion, but watches it anyway
16:01:56*Crash91 is using DSL on his worthlesss windows XP homo edition
16:02:05TMMGodEater_, 'good' plugins are neatly coded, and have no patent issues. 'bad' plugins have patent issues but are well-coded, 'ugly' plugins have patent issues AND are not well-coded
16:02:18*Crash91 feels XP homo sp2 is too gay..

16:03:08Crash91to #rockbox-community!
16:03:09*karashata wishes he could back his files up and move to Gentoo, but doesn't have a backup hard drive or money to get one
16:03:23*Crash91 is a proud Fedora user
16:04:01pondlifeDomonoky: Do you think it sensible that one day RBUtil could build a voice file, given a lang file?
16:04:24Domonokypondlife: that would be really really nice.. but its not easy..
16:04:25pondlifei.e. Download the .lang file, not the .voice file.
16:04:32karashataI liked Gentoo until something broke and it wouldn't work for me anymore, but I had it as a dual-boot install with Vista, since then I gained too much stuff and don't have enough space to make a new partition anymore...
16:05:00pondlifeWell, we'll see if you (or someone) can get the SAPI script stuff incorporated first then.
16:05:00GodEater_karashata: like Domonoky says - take it to -community now - we've veered wildly offtopic
16:05:08Domonokythe problem is, that voice file generation now needs the features file.. so we would need to proviced this file along to the builds..

18:25:36Nico_PDomonoky, bluebrother: Benjamin Mako Hill is going to do some rockbox installs at an install party (http://mako.cc/copyrighteous/20071012-00.comment). I suggested he use rbutil
18:25:57Avebasically it sets the max clock to 78 MHz instead of 80
18:26:12amiconnI wouldn't call that a fix
18:26:33Aveeven if the problem is somewhere else, like the IO code, if it gets fixed by 2 MHz change, I'd be content
18:26:52bluebrotherNico_P: interesting.
18:27:22amiconnIt just tries to work around the issue. It will become less likely, but won't go away. Whether that helps or not depends on the individual nano
18:27:57bluebrotheroh, that's tomorrow. Bringing out a new release might be good ...
18:28:00Aveindeed
18:28:04amiconnAnd it sacrifices speed. Someone needs to go ahead and properly analyse the problem and fix it
18:28:18Avebut oes 2MHz really make a difference?

18:32:44pondlifeWe SO need an insider at Apple....
18:32:51amiconnI don't think PP releases docs to anyone. Not even apple
18:33:03amiconnI think they just sell their SDK
18:33:05marcosourcestrange, my rockboxed Sandisk Sansa e270 won't reg as a usb disk anymore on my mac.. but on the gentoo machine it's no problem.. I've seen this with usb memory sticks to, as far as I rememember, it only helped by reformating them... I'd rather not do that to my e270 :/
18:33:16amiconn...which would be of no use for us, even if someone had it
18:33:39Avebut if apple can make it work under the sdk why wouldnt rb

21:43:50LloreanServer doesn't have a LiveCD as far as I know
21:44:08amiconnlinuxstb: Hmm, I have a suspicion
21:44:18*amiconn points webguest44 to the irc logs *again*
21:45:44amiconnlinuxstb: star uses a transition effect where it updates from center using larger and larger rectangles
21:46:21amiconnSo if either height == 0 or width == 0, *some* lcd_update_rect() implementations will act up
21:46:39amiconnThat explains why it doesn't happen on all targets
21:46:48jhMikeSamiconn: I was just trying star from lastest SVN but DC patched and it's not freezing :\
21:46:56amiconneh?
21:47:28jhMikeSI'm playing it now
21:47:33amiconnHmm, the 20GB doesn't use the block transfer controller...
21:47:42amiconn(yet)
21:47:49 Part Redbreva ("Out for the day...!")
21:48:05jhMikeSah, just on the small H10?
21:48:17jhMikeSthe freeze i mean
21:48:33amiconnThat's where I observed it. Need to check other targets
21:49:08amiconnAnyway, guarding against zero width or height sounds like a good idea, as well as clipping to the lcd area
21:49:25amiconnBut that will have to wait; I'm about to extend test_fps
21:50:57*jhMikeS makes a dc ipod color build and would very much appreciate a test there...will put up on ftp
21:51:13 Quit webguest44 ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
21:52:10 Quit marc___ (Excess Flood)
21:53:35Nico_PjhMikeS: you were asking about the ISR pcmbuf position callback... any idea how the same thing could be achieved another way ?
21:53:43amiconnZero height should do no harm on H10, but zero width would.
21:54:18amiconnIt would set the transfer size to 0xffff (numpixels - 1), and then put zero pixels
21:54:37*amiconn puts a DEBUGF() call into the sim implementation
21:55:14jhMikeSNico_P: I was thinking like mpegplayer does. Timestamp the codec buffer and transfer the stamps to the pcm buffer.
21:57:07jhMikeSwhat's a good ipod color button for "quit"?
21:57:34amiconnDepends on whether it's a simple plugin or needs many buttons
21:57:34Nico_PjhMikeS: I'll have a look
21:57:50amiconnSimple plugins just use MENU for quit on ipods
21:57:55jhMikeSamiconn: just test_queue.c
21:57:57amiconnIf that's taken, MENU+SELECT
21:58:15 Join midgey [0] (n=tjross@westquad-188-46.reshall.umich.edu)
21:58:40LloreanjhMikeS: Long hold of Menu is often quit for the plugins, I thought.
21:58:47midgeyamiconn: i know star froze on the gigabeat f/x too
21:59:19midgeyiirc it's in star_transition which is ifdef'd out on gigabeat as a work-around
22:00
22:00:14*pixelma read that as "effects"... ;)
22:00:49Nico_PjhMikeS: I haven't looked yet, but is it a big job ? if not, would you consider doing it in svn ?
22:01:53amiconnmidgey: hack-around
22:01:56jhMikeSNico_P: I'm not sure how big a job it is. Maybe not too bad. I suppose I could look closer after this other work is settled.
22:02:12amiconnThe transition effect starts indeed with a series of updates with width == 0 or height == 0
22:02:29amiconnSome lcd_update_rect() implementations are susceptible to this, some are not
22:02:43jhMikeSsome just assume valid params?
22:02:53amiconn(just figured from looking at the code so far, sim still building..)
22:03:01Nico_PjhMikeS: thatks... I'm not at all familiar with the PCM code so I would probably spend way more time than necessary on it
22:04:00amiconnjhMikeS: Many do, but some don't break when width and/or height are zero
22:04:17midgeyamiconn: a hack-around indeed
22:04:30midgeyim preety sure the crash only occurred on target for gigabeat
22:04:35jhMikeSNico_P: it can probably just go in the pcm buffer descriptor structure and be accurate enough
22:04:43amiconnmidgey: It's not needed if the implementation for gigabeat gets properly safe-guarded
22:05:43amiconnA temporary workaround (and a sane idea) would be to let the updates not start at zero (which doesn't make sense anyway)
22:05:51midgeyright, i'd like to see the issue fixed on gigabeat too

22:46:20jhMikeSamiconn: perhaps but not before dealing with that issue. Right now it's just there for proving things.
22:48:01pixelman1s: I find the definitions for the Ondio pad very unintuitive (just reading the patch) - maybe you could use button combos (menu+up/down for example) to control the volume?
22:48:45n1spixelma: sure, I'll fix it, thanks for looking
22:49:30jhMikeSamiconn: any mt codec would need notification of the swap and need to park its threads safely inside the kernel (block them all on some object).
22:49:56pixelman1s: but short "off" for start/stop and long "off" to quit the plugin is not nice - and it makes it easy to accidentally shut the player off...
22:50:26n1sso it's a good thing I asked before committing :-)
22:50:38pixelmabut I know that there are similar things in other plugins on other targets
22:52:05n1sthis button mess is pretty annoying, I almost just added buttons for the requested target and threw an ifdef around the case, fiddeling with the buttonmaps took much longer time than the code :-/
22:53:27pixelmathe button mess? It's just a lot of different targets with different keypads (and restrictions with them)
22:53:52n1sAnd inconsistent mappings and stupid button names
22:54:52n1slike why is BUTTON_SCROLL_DOWN bound to increasing volume in wps for e200? I know it's the clockwise turning of the wheel but why call it down
22:55:03pixelmastupid button names - I agree, especially the scroll up/down in the e200 map...
22:55:20n1sand ipods, which way is forward on a circle that spins?
22:56:13pixelmaI guess that these definitions where just taken from the H10 map... ehmm barrywardell? I think

23:46:54lymecaHow do I boot into APple's firmware once I am running Rockbox?
23:47:10Lloreanlymeca: Turn off the player, turn on the player, immediately turn and leave on the hold switch.
23:47:12jepleron e200 should charging work "the same" as in the OF? Reading the source code, it doesn't look like rockbox does much besides change the indicator to show a "plugged in" indicator... but the battery reports "full" long before it actually is..
23:48:10Lloreanjepler: There is no proper charging status
23:48:21LloreanIt shows "full" because on AC power it seems to the player the same as having a full battery.
23:48:45jeplerLlorean: OK, that makes sense −− I was just noticing that the percent_to_volt_charge table is the same as the percent_to_volt_discharge table
23:49:02LloreanYes, there's still a lot of work that needs to be done with charging code on portalplayer targets, I think
23:49:08jeplerbut maybe _to_volt_charge isn't even used because of the CONFIG_CHARGING setting
23:49:19 Quit ompaul (Client Quit)
23:49:27jeplerbut as long as I leave it plugged in, it *is* charging?
23:49:34LloreanIt is, yes
23:49:38jeplerit's just the status that could be better..
23:49:41LloreanUnfortunately, Rockbox charges much slower than the original firmware
23:49:58LloreanSo unless you want/need to be using Rockbox while charging, the recommended method is still to reboot into the original firmware

23:55:53LloreanIn theory at least, that should be improved when our improved USB code is finished
23:57:39jepleroh, is it slow because you can only draw a small amount of current before identifying as a usb device with a 500mA current request?
23:57:53LloreanPretty much
23:58:18LloreanThat combined with the fact that Rockbox currently uses more power than the original firmware makes things slow.
