00:16:25mr_pinkLooking at the logs I noticed there was a mention last night about the gigbeat custom dock idea... Has anyone actually put much thought or work into this yet? And is there anyone keen that has the right knowledge to make it happen? Or is it more of a pipe dream?
00:17:06karashatamr_pink: there's a wiki page on it if you wanna look into it a bit more
00:19:01mr_pinkYeah I noticed the other day that someone had updated it so it got me thinking about it again

00:22:04preglowamiconn: correct answer with regards to the lower 16 bits of reach register, that is

00:51:16rasherThat's quite a leap
00:51:18rasherWell done
00:51:49amiconnNow 2 things need fixing before commit: yuv blitting, and the background update should be made dualcore safe
00:52:14hcsin other news, SPC codec is failing a lot in the current build
00:52:31hcs(for gigabeat and sansa e200)
00:53:29hcsI'll look into it in a bit, when I can find an outlet for my laptop...
00:53:29amiconnPartial updates profit even more: 390fps for quarter screen (was 59fps before)

00:53:51preglowamiconn: what the hell
00:53:57preglowthat's quite insane
00:54:20amiconnThis is still with the simple bcm rom firmware
00:54:42amiconnJust some neat trickery to get around the 14 ms bcm wait
00:55:34amiconnNow someone make a more optimised yuv->rgb convesion :>
00:56:04amiconnTo beat the current one, it needs to convert in less than 30 cpu cycles per pixel
00:56:20amiconn(including clipping and all)
00:56:25preglowamiconn: anyway, mul r0, r1, r2 where r1 and r2 are two 16 bit packed values will give the same answer as the two low parts multiplied together separately, yes?
00:56:36amiconnNot sure...

00:56:52midgeyat 101 fps, doesnt that make the 5g one of fastest targets for lcd in terms of byte/s?
00:56:52amiconnThe low part will be the same

00:57:14amiconnmidgey: Nope, the gigabeat and sansa are faster
00:57:50amiconn(because they use dma from ram)
00:58:07midgeywell, i saw the e200 on LcdFrameRate, but I didn't know the speed of the gigabeat
00:58:11amiconnG5 is now about 15MByte/s
00:58:55amiconnIn fact the transfer speed already was that high, just the bcm wait limited the speed of back-to-back updates

01:01:09amiconnYes, it's just a few us

01:11:58amiconnBtw, fullscreen elephants dream is now playing at ~13fps, widescreen at ~17fps
01:12:30amiconnVersions smaller than the screen are currently broken (due to lcd_yuv_blit needing adjustment)
01:12:35preglowhow much would that improve with a nice yuv blit?
01:12:57amiconnIt's already asm'ised - if you could come up with a better one...
01:13:59amiconnPure fullscreen yuv blit is currently running at 27.3fps
01:14:38preglowand you're out of ideas on how to optimize it?
01:14:41amiconnThat means each mpeg decoding and yuv blit need roughly half of the total time
01:15:37amiconnIt will even become a tiny bit slower for less than screen width
01:16:04 Quit midgey ()
01:16:08preglownow, find an arc assembler and make the bcm do the yuv conversion for you :P
01:16:32amiconnNot the conversion itself, but I need to either split the line pairs into 2 separate calls, or let the function deal with bcm address setup
01:16:35amiconnarc?
01:17:42preglowyeah, i think the bcm is an arc chip
01:17:45preglowwhich means it uses mips instructions
01:17:45amiconnjhMikeS: I take it that all accesses to lcd_state would need to be corelocked?
01:19:11amiconnjhMikeS: The lcd_update does this: set lcd_update to something != LCD_NEED_UPDATE, then transfer data to the bcm (during that time the tick must not access the lcd.
01:19:15jhMikeSamiconn: I don't know...perhaps not if the interrupt will catch them at some point

01:19:42jhMikeSaha
01:19:46amiconnWhen finished, it checks whether the bcm is busy. If it is, it sets lcd_state to LCD_NEED_UPDATE, to let the tick do the update
01:19:54 Quit RoC_MasterMind (Client Quit)
01:20:12amiconnIf the bcm is ready, it kicks off the update itself, and leaves lcd_state set to LCD_IDLE
01:20:22jhMikeSthen yes if you can't risk one extra getting by
01:20:34amiconnOne extra would be a waste
01:21:05jhMikeSthe corelock there is just swp, so no big deal to lock it and change the var and unlock
01:21:25amiconnYeah, but I don't want to lock during the whole update
01:21:42amiconnI mean during the whole data transfer to the bcm, which can be lengthy
01:22:08 Join advcomp2019 [0] (n=advcomp2@unaffiliated/advcomp2019)
01:22:25amiconnAs long as lcd_update is never called on COP, I don't need locking at all
01:23:21jhMikeSlock, set the var to something != LCD_NEED_UPDATE, unlock. copy the data, and just do the same procedure when allowing updates again. and it is called on COP.
01:23:43amiconnis it?
01:24:11jhMikeSby mpegplayer but not at the same time
01:24:31amiconnHmm, mpegplayer runs video on cop?
01:24:42amiconnI thought it would run audio on cop, hmm...
01:24:45jhMikeSon pp targets
01:25:17jhMikeSmuch better to use COP for video since audio isn't so heavy and CPU must buffer and handle keys
01:25:27amiconnhmm
01:25:42amiconnOn greyscale pp targets it would be better to put audio on cop...
01:25:58amiconn...or better, put the greyscale isr on cop
01:26:11*amiconn wonders whether that would work
01:28:41*amiconn will look into that while implementing the all-new greyscale lib
01:29:00jhMikeSI think the ISR should just switch to whatever core starts it
01:29:55jhMikeSit should work so long as it's not enabled for both at once...as we've seen in other places
01:30:18amiconnIt's a TIMER2 isr
01:30:44amiconnCurrently running on CPU only, as the timer api only enables the interrupt for cpu
01:31:12amiconnI think the timer api should allow core selection on PP
01:31:34jhMikeSright so, that needs a small tweak to select the core starting it or select a core explicitly
01:31:37preglowahaha, hole smokes, just replacing the qmf_synth function with asm shrunk the binary with 1kb :P

01:32:39amiconnAlthough that might cause problems with cache coherency
01:32:51pixelmahcs: hold power for about 15 sec..
01:33:09jhMikeShmmm...one core flush, other invalidates. the data should be aligned properly too then...or use uncached aliases and alignment
01:33:34amiconnUncached would be nasty...

01:35:14jhMikeSgo ask in #rockbox-community?

01:37:26preglow155
01:37:50preglowhowever, there is still a bug, so it might still not be the right performance figure
01:38:08amiconnwow
01:38:11preglowand further optimizations in the innerloop is possible
01:38:23preglowamiconn: it really isn't a "wow" when you see the bloody mess gcc made of that function

01:38:52jhMikeSpreglow: vorbis builds seektables at load time?
01:39:04preglowjhMikeS: vorbis builds _everything_ at load time, afaik...
01:39:21preglowbtw, i don't think vorbis uses a seek table
01:39:40preglowit just skips from ogg header to ogg header in search of where it's going, afaik
01:39:43preglownot 100% certain

01:40:09preglowjhMikeS: so, that's what you're working on now? :P
01:40:28jhMikeSI said I would after dual core was in place.
01:40:35preglowdid you, know
01:40:39preglownow..
01:40:41preglowgod, i should sleep
01:40:46preglowputting down asm is so hard...
01:40:54jhMikeSyes, look in the IRC logs
01:41:15preglowi believe you :)
01:41:31jhMikeSnow that all kernel objects are useable on DC it's much easier to do whatever
01:42:48amiconnjhMikeS: Any news regarding DC on PP5002?
01:43:06jhMikeSthis thing could support playlists too since it's not hard coded to end the plugin at video end...but do we need yet another full-blown playback engine? :)
01:43:53jhMikeSamiconn: haven't gotten there yet. I suspect that most of it could be thrown-in rather quickly.
01:44:04amiconnImho video is just an add-on for a dap, and we don't need to support video playlists
01:44:44amiconnOn a true video target this might be different, and video might find its way into the core. But then some brilliant wps ideas are needed ;)
01:44:49jhMikeSIt doesn't really feel like an addon on a gigabeat. Feels meant for such a thing which a good screen and fast processor.
01:45:18preglowagreed
01:45:25preglowand g5 ipods _are_ meant for video
01:45:31jhMikeSWPS video mode? YUV blitting can leave a margin for OSD.
01:47:03jhMikeSpreglow: but that needs the special broadcom support, right? so until that, it's sort of clunky eh?
01:48:15*jhMikeS wonders if gigabeat wasn't meant for video but they abandoned it to bring it to market faster.
01:49:21amiconnNow cube.rock on G5 is almost as fast as on H300 (h=1, both targets boosted), even though G5 has significantly more pixels...
01:49:35preglowgourad shading! :P
01:49:38jhMikeSvideo players are damn complex :\

02:07:00hcsand occasional codec failures

02:07:32preglowthe amount of copy&paste errors i commit
02:08:13jhMikeShcs: it is only when playback switches directories itself? I can start it explicitly in a directory and it's ok.

02:09:46jhMikeSodd...my build is from an SVN earlier today around 4:00 EDT
02:10:21hcsprobably something sensitive with what memory it's overwriting

02:18:34hcs*note
02:19:11jhMikeSThe track info in the WPS was just a bunch of boxes for a few seconds while the track switched over. Probably clearing the metadata when the codec is unloaded but not when the track is actually done sounding.
02:19:37jhMikeSheh, just did it on the next switch too
02:19:42***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"

02:21:27jhMikeSnope. I looked at the playback update but that seems to not be affecting me.
02:22:02jhMikeSbut then I don't seem to remember the boxes in WPS either...hmmm
02:25:22hcshum, why are the samples int32_t?
02:26:04jhMikeSwhich samples?
02:26:37hcsthe main buffer I render into, samples[]
02:27:06jhMikeSbecause it outputs 24-bit data?
02:27:15hcsah, quite
02:27:54hcsbeen a while since I've worked on this
02:29:07jhMikeSshould I throw the ARM asm in? Some real improvement but it won't get you echo on PP without COP use. (the parallel processing will have to wait a little)
02:29:41hcsIf you wish, I'd like to find out what's wrong just now first.
02:30:32 Part pixelma
02:30:48jhMikeSNothing's been altered in the track handling (nothing I did that I remember or intended anyway) :p.
02:31:16hcsI'll do some regression, see if I can narrow it down
02:31:22hcsI hadn't built a build for a while
02:35:18jhMikeShmm...last SPC commit is the building with its own -O level. last before that was coldfire assembly work.
02:36:10hcsI don't think there had been any SPC changes since I checked

02:37:04jhMikeShcs: it's been 3 months
02:37:22hcsjhMikeS: right, definitely been since then
02:38:12preglowjhMikeS: if i have two packed 16x16 registers and use a standard arm mul instruction, will the result be the lower two 16 bits multiplied by each other?
02:38:19preglowi just can't wrap my head around that now
02:39:31preglowmy head says yes, but the ipod says no...
02:39:32jhMikeSummm...no
02:40:23preglowbeh, the lower 16 bits will be right
02:41:16jhMikeSthe upper 16 will have the carries added of course
02:41:19preglowi've got a bad register squeeze going on
02:42:02jhMikeSmaybe that's why gcc mangled it so much
02:42:24preglowprobably
02:42:39preglowanyway, even having to fetch shorts from memory all the time, i'm way, way faster than gcc

02:43:59preglownot very flash friendly
02:44:01jhMikeSno, just stash it per core and use it for scratch unless you need to call some other routine
02:44:37preglowstash it at some constant offset, you men?
02:44:38preglowmean
02:45:00jhMikeSno, at some static location
02:45:06preglowahh, i meant that, yes
02:45:14preglow0x10000000 would be nice :P
02:45:47jhMikeSthough that is a really desperate shortage then
02:46:03preglowanywho, can you think of any faster clipping for arm than: cmp r1, limit \n movgt r1, rlimit \n cmn r1, limit \n rsblt r1, rlimit, #0 ?
02:46:12preglowthat is symmetric clipping
02:46:23jhMikeSyes
02:46:35preglowfor assymmetric you'd just do mvnlt r1, rlimit, i guess
02:48:03preglowyes, as in you know of something faster?
02:48:04jhMikeSwell, I can think of it but I'll get bopped again just for doing so :)
02:48:20preglowfour cycles isn't too bad, really
02:48:58jhMikeSit turns it into asymmetric, unsigned clipping

02:52:44preglowsixteen bit clipping
02:53:25jhMikeS-32768 to 32767? use the one from DSP.c as compiled. it's four instructions
02:53:49 Join keanu [0] (n=keanu@unaffiliated/keanu)
02:53:54preglowwith how many cycles on clip not taken?
02:54:20jhMikeSI think it's four always
02:54:47preglowthen i'll just continue using this one, since this is also four always :)
02:55:42preglowi guess it's kind of hard to get under four, since that just about leaves you with one instruction and one branch, and unless you also want to always execute the clipping case, you'll need a branch
02:56:22jhMikeSwait and the result should be sign-extended to bit-31 or not?
02:56:39preglowyou know what, in this particular scenario, it would be for the better if it was not
02:56:59jhMikeSheh, you can have your pick
02:57:13preglowsince then i can or together the sixteen bit results and transfer them with stmia
02:57:25preglowif they're sign-extended, i can't or them together if they're negative
02:58:05 Quit donsdw ()
02:58:53preglowhah, if i change the rsblt r1, rlimit, #0 to addlt r1, rlimit, #1, i achieve just that

03:11:27Falco98I wanna see if anyone has seen anything like this: i'm having a pesky recurring issue (iriver h140); some time after installing a new build, the player starts "losing" its playlist on resume after an idle poweroff... and if i instead manually power-off, it loses its settings instead.
03:12:28Falco98i ran a scandisk a few weeks ago at someone's suggestion and found that like 2 of the system files were crosslinked, so i corrected this. but, it remains. I'm starting to think that rockbox might be doing this thru improper handling somehow
03:12:41Falco98it's pestersome as it's impossible to trace and hard to replicate
03:12:55safetydanFalco98: do you property unmount your player before unplugging the USB cable?
03:13:02Falco98i don't believe i'm experiencing disk corruption, as it's always those specific files
03:13:11Falco98generally, yes
03:13:20Falco98though sometimes the unmount fails and i have to unsafely unplug it anyway
03:13:30Falco98i do, at least, make sure the disk is inactive when i do
03:13:49safetydanthat's likely to lead to filesystem corruption though and disk activity isn't a reliable indicator depending on write caching and so forth
03:14:00Falco98"safely remove"ing doesn't do anything additional, as far as i've seen
03:14:13safetydanit ensures the write cache is flushed at least
03:14:19Falco98ah ok
03:14:38Falco98wouldn't i have write caching disabled in my OS?
03:14:44Falco98or would that not matter?
03:14:53safetydandepends on the os and how dumb it is about removable storage
03:15:03Falco98XP
03:15:06safetydanIt's "Optimise for quick disconnect" or something like that on XP
03:15:25Falco98whatever it is, i believe i have it enabled
03:15:53jhMikeSgo to device manager while the device is pluggin, select the disk driver for the device and check the policies tab
03:16:01jhMikeS*plugged
03:16:28Falco98ok
03:19:11Falco98yeah, that's how it was set
03:20:25Falco98hmm.. what's the command name again? i thought it was "scandisk" but that's not working now

03:32:03safetydanFalco98: you can delete them but they'll return as soon as you connect to Windows again
03:32:29Falco98ah, yeah.. the problem is that SVI has like 20 megs of crap in it atm
03:32:42jhMikeSyeah, just don't let recycled fill up (hit Shift when deleting files from Explorer)

03:41:33Mouser_XIt's certainly not a bad idea.
03:41:49Mouser_XIn fact, it could probably help in disk spinup.

03:48:19Mouser_XFalco98: What I was refering to, is that it wouldn't have to spin the disk as much, when loading data, because it wouldn't be scattered all over the disk.
03:48:54karashataI have to agree with Mouser_X, it does help a bit
03:49:17Falco98gotcha

10:58:55LinusN"glitching"?
10:59:44MrRichardwell, to be specific, after my 2nd sync the database will no longer function. Instead, after selecting database it sits on searching...0 found. And from then on I cannot use the database
11:00
11:04:46preglowLinusN: have speex down to 50kb on coldfire now
11:04:54LinusNnice
11:05:16preglowstill 3.5kb in floating point code, i'd expect. plus ogg framing code we don't need, and the entire codec control file
11:05:21LinusNMrRichard: wow, sounds bad
11:05:38LinusNpreglow: good, so there is more to trim then
11:05:58ShaidI had that happen on my 5g ipod, MrRichard, I made it recreate the whole DB, seemed to fix it
11:06:02jmspeexpreglow: what's "the entire codec control file"?
11:06:20Shaidbut it's always possible you have something funny in your db that it doesn't like

11:06:35 Quit BigBambi (Read error: 113 (No route to host))
11:06:46MrRichardshaid: how do I force create a new database? ive just relied on reformating the whole device, which is quite a lengthy and iritating chore
11:06:58jmspeexah, OK
11:07:30karashataMrRichard: the easy way to clear the DB is to delete the database files from the .rockbox directory
11:07:49karashataafter that you can rebuild it from a clean slate
11:08:11ShaidMrRichard: And the Initialize Now option in the Database options menu recreates the DB
11:08:44MrRichardshaid+karashata: thanks a lot for the tips
11:08:59rasherMrRichard: I'm pretty sure you don't need to delete the database files. Just "Initialize Now" will start from scratch
11:09:27MrRichardI just reformatted, I'll play around a bit and try that out
11:09:37preglowjmspeex: btw, would you happen to know anything about libogg2?
11:09:50jmspeexpreglow: a bit, yes
11:10:00preglowjmspeex: does it do less mallocing and memory copying than libogg?
11:10:14jmspeexyes. libogg2 is zero-copy
11:10:30preglowexcellent
11:11:06jmspeexWell, it's zero copy for Tremor −− which uses the libogg2 bit-packet. Speex uses its own bit-packer, so there a copy involved.
11:11:39jmspeexThat is, unless you want to change it to use the libogg2 bit-packer.
11:11:50preglowand that would be non-trivial, or?
11:12:11jmspeexpreglow: speaking of bit-packer, you may be able to save on the memory that the Speex one allocates.
11:12:55preglowwow, there's an alloc i didn't even see
11:12:56jmspeexI've never used libogg2, so I can't say how hard it would be. Possibly not that hard. All you'd need to do is reimplement bits.c using calls to the libogg2 bitpacker
11:13:08***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
11:14:04jmspeexpreglow: the best thing for you would be to not use speex_bits_init() at all and instead use speex_bits_init_buffer() or speex_bits_set_bit_buffer()
11:14:58preglowjmspeex: how do i know if i can save any memory on it, though? currently it's 2kb, it seems
11:15:09jmspeexpreglow: also note that the zero-copy aspect of libogg2 gives you very little if you consider how small Speex frames are
11:16:05jmspeexpreglow: You can skip the allocation altogether and just use speex_bits_init_buffer(). That will just make the SpeexBits struct use your existing buffer.
11:16:31preglowjmspeex: sure, done, but that still doesn't help me shave any bytes off it by itself
11:16:44jmspeexsorry, I meant speex_bits_set_bit_buffer() which is probably more useful for decoding
11:17:08jmspeexpreglow: If you don't call speex_bits_init(), then it doesn't allocate *any* memory.
11:17:30jmspeexyou just use whatever libogg gave you
11:17:37preglowahhh, right
11:19:43preglowand it's always safe to do that? no bit reservoir or nothing?
11:20:11jmspeexwhat do you mean safe?
11:20:31jmspeexyou've currently extracting the packet and copying it, right?
11:20:47jmspeexAll you need to do is call speex_bits_set_bit_buffer() instead of copying
11:21:04 Quit spiorf (Remote closed the connection)
11:22:16jmspeexIn theory, there is no upper bound for the size of an Ogg/Speex packet constructed by a idiotic asshole, but in practice anything larger than 1200 bytes can be assumed to come from an idiotic asshole.
11:22:35preglowi'm currently looking at that now, i didn't write the entire ogg parsing stuff
11:22:46jmspeexI have Ogg code
11:22:51jmspeexs/have/hate/
11:23:30preglowhaha

11:24:05preglowie. don't use any
11:26:13preglowwhy, oggframing.c seems to comply nicely with that rule
11:27:43preglowbtw, does the enchancer do any comb filtering?
11:31:12MrRichardanother question: when using custom themes that allow coverart to be displayed when playing, where do I save the cover art?

11:39:25jmspeexpreglow: uwb q1 uses the 4 kbps mode for narrowband.
11:39:54jmspeexThat mode uses an open-loop pitch gain, which isn't very good.
11:40:26jmspeexWhen I say useless, I mean that you can do better for the same bit-rate if you reduce the bandwidth
11:40:38preglowperhaps i like sibilance :)
11:40:39jmspeexDoes -q2 sound better BTW?

12:38:55pixelmayou could set everything up on your computer, editing the config.cfg file and/or even use the voice UI...

12:39:25BigBambiclass37: Right, but how do you get audio files onto the ipod. Drag and drop or itunes
12:39:45class37drag and drop
12:40:14MrRichardIs drag and drop the preferred method?
12:40:24MrRichardAs I've been using windows media player to sync with my iriver.
12:40:39BigBambiclass37: Good - it is then easy to set up a playlist on the pc, then as pixelma says this would seem an ideal use of voice ui to navigate to that playlist and also to set autoresume to on
12:40:58BigBambiMrRichard: You can do it how you want, but personally I will only use drag and drop
12:41:10MrRichardthanks, I've been wondering about it.
12:42:59 Quit SirFunk (Remote closed the connection)
12:43:02BigBambiclass37: And as pixelma also says you can create config.cfg on your pc so you don't have to change settings within rockbox, so all you would have to do is locate the playlist

12:44:38BigBambime!
12:46:35MrRichardIf a theme says it requires a certain build, but i don't install the build but still put all the patches in. will it work?
12:47:05BigBambiMrRichard: Probably not
12:47:14*MrRichard sighs
12:47:24BigBambiThe WPS parser is quite strict now, so if it finds errors it displays the default WPS
12:47:24MrRichardI have teh patches but all the links to the build I need are dead
12:47:46BigBambiAnd an error can include unsupported tags which some WPS patches introduce
12:47:49class37when i set talk menu: on
12:47:58BigBambiMrRichard: Have you looked in the unsupported builds forum?
12:48:04class37i'm not hearing anything
12:48:11MrRichardI'll have a look, thanksBigBambi
12:48:19BigBambiMrRichard: You don't need the exact same build, just one that includes the patches you need
12:48:31BigBambiclass37: Do you have voice files installed?
12:48:42class37probably not
12:48:48class37got it
12:50:32BigBambiMrRichard: Sorry, I misread your original question - you don't need the exact same build, just one with the right patches, so building your own is fine
12:51:02MrRichardThanks again BigBambi
12:51:07BigBambinp
12:51:16MrRichardI found a build that's just missing 1 or 2 patches. Is there a way to include the ones it's missing?
12:51:17class37copying voice files to ipod
12:51:24class37should be that simple
12:51:28class37right?
12:51:43BigBambiclass37: I'm not too sure tbh, I have never used voice
12:51:58BigBambiBut I believe it tells you in the manual what you need to set up
12:52:04class37i'll let u know
12:52:11class37great idea though, thx
12:53:14*BigBambi deflects credit to pixelma
12:53:23MrRichardJust out of interest, would an iAudio build work on an iRiver?
12:53:30BigBambiMrRichard: no
12:53:36pondlifeclass37: Copy it to /.rockbox/langs/english.voice
12:53:45pondlife(or whichever language)
12:53:55MrRichardI noticed the H10 and a certain iAudio are compatible with the same themes. But I guess the build is different
12:54:19pondlifeThemes might be compatible if the screen dimensions are the same, builds won't bt.
12:54:19BigBambiThemes are essentially just text and pictures and rockbox knows how o deal with them

12:59:17johnoh fine. thanks.
12:59:33MrRichardOh man. I have another silly question. Where do I extract themes to?
12:59:53MrRichardThis .zip hasnt got .rockbox as its root, just 'RedEye2' with everything inside that folder
12:59:54BigBambiThe zip should be set up with the correct directory structure so you just unzip to the root
12:59:59BigBambiAh, OK
13:00
13:00:07BigBambiwhat is inside that folder?
13:00:17MrRichardwps, themes, fonts, background
13:00:50BigBambiThose folders should be inside .rockbox
13:00:59class37you guys mentioned voice and one other way to handle it
13:01:05class37please restate the other way?
13:01:12MrRichardshould i rename redeye to .rockbox and then extract?
13:01:31BigBambiclass37: when rockbox saves changed from default settings it writes config.cfg inside .rockbox
13:01:40BigBambiMrRichard: that is one way
13:02:22BigBambiclass37: So if you edit that to change rockbox to autoresume on startup and create a playlist on your computer and save it somewhere easy like the root of the player

13:04:32MrRichardlots of them D:
13:04:32BigBambicool
13:05:20MrRichardexcellent
13:05:25MrRichardso far the theme is working flawlessly!
13:05:30BigBambiGood news
13:06:04MrRichardahh
13:06:14MrRichardonly letdown so far is that the wps screen is just default.
13:06:15BigBambinot flawless? :)
13:06:30BigBambiOK, so that means there are errors in the WPS file itself
13:06:32MrRichardhaha yeah ;)
13:06:42MrRichardWell it was missing 2-3 patches
13:06:50BigBambiThat'll do it
13:06:59MrRichardHmm
13:07:02MrRichardNow I have another issue...
13:07:12MrRichardI've already installed a build, lets say I come across the build I need.
13:07:19MrRichardCan I safely just install that build on top?
13:07:20BigBambiThose patches probably introduce new tags, so as official rockbox doesn't know about them it refuses to load it
13:07:24karashataMrRichard: yes
13:07:29BigBambiYep, just overwrite
13:07:29MrRichardExcellent.
13:07:39BigBambiThat is also how you upgrade

13:08:47MrRichardgood thing I slept in thismorning. Looks like a late night for me
13:09:08BigBambiKeep in mind that the only supported version of rockbox is the up to date current build (which normally changes several times per day). For patched builds etc., we can' really support as we don't know what the patches might have changed
13:09:37BigBambican' = can't in the previous sentance :)
13:10:44MrRichardohh okay
13:11:24MrRichardso my up-to-date current build may not accomodate the patches I need?
13:12:31karashataMrRichard: as long as the patches have been synced to a recent SVN commit they should work fine
13:12:41MrRichardexcellent.
13:12:58karashataif they're a few months old they might need a little work to make them fit with the current SVN
13:13:07MrRichardNow my only remaining issue is not knowing how to compile patches >,< the guide is confusing
13:13:09BigBambiYes, up-to-date current has no patches. You are free to use patches and unsupported builds, but if you have a problem we ask you test with an official build before reporting is all

13:13:44MrRichardCurrently, yes =/
13:13:47BigBambiXP?
13:13:51MrRichardYeah.
13:14:02BigBambiFirst step is setting up a build environment
13:14:13BigBambiFor ease of use I would suggest VMWare
13:14:30MrRichardDownloading now
13:14:35BigBambicool
13:15:23MrRicharddo i need all the 7zip etc that the wiki mentions?
13:15:48BigBambiYou need something that can unzip .7z (7zip files)
13:16:15MrRichardwinrar?
13:16:16BigBambi7zip itself is free and open source, but if you have another tool to do it you prefer you are welcome to use it
13:16:24MrRichardMightaswell get 7zip
13:16:45BigBambiMrRichard: Possibly, I don't use winrar so don't know if it can do it or not (I'd guess yes)
13:17:24karashatayep, winRAR can open 7-Zip files
13:17:50karashatait's even enabled as the default app on install if you don't change the defaults on install
13:18:18MrRichardoh okay. excellent\
13:19:15MrRicharddidnt realise these files were over 100mb.
13:19:23MrRichardHopefully my net pulls through and gets them doen pretty quick
13:19:32BigBambiMrRichard: It is a whole operating system :)
13:19:50MrRichardOhh
13:19:57MrRichardI thought it may have been smaller
13:20:07MrRichardso it's basically cygwin, except set up differently?
13:20:12BigBambiNope
13:20:17BigBambiIt is a linux install

13:20:55darkapostropheWhat is that?
13:21:01darkapostropheSpeech synthesis or something?
13:21:04BigBambidarkapostrophe: voice files
13:21:08MrRichardWell once this is out of the way atleast I can live happily if I can get my iriver running well.
13:21:25darkapostropheBigBambi: Again, what are they, and what are they used for?
13:21:27BigBambidarkapostrophe: Not synthesis, but prebuilt files to voice menus etc
13:21:37darkapostropheVoice files = ambiguous, leaves me guessing
13:21:40karashataMrRichard: you'll like it, I'm sure
13:21:44darkapostropheOh, I see
13:21:50Domonokydarkapostrophe: with this voice files, rockbox can speak its mens..
13:21:51BigBambidarkapostrophe: well, you could have searched the wiki or manual
13:21:58darkapostropheSo that if there's a directory called podcasts, it'll read it out loud?
13:22:03BigBambiFor instance VoiceHowTo
13:22:13BigBambi*VoiceHowto
13:22:20BigBambidarkapostrophe: No, that's a directory
13:22:23darkapostropheBigBambi: The wiki is quite strange, it's not easy to search or find stuff in, as MediaWiki is
13:22:32BigBambidarkapostrophe: I managed it
13:22:43darkapostropheOkay, so if I have a file called Artist - Song.mp3, it'll read that, then?
13:22:50BigBambiNo
13:22:55BigBambiIt is not synthesis
13:22:57markundarkapostrophe: those are all examples of speech synthesis
13:22:58BigBambiIt is prebuilt
13:23:00Domonokyno it will read the mens..
13:23:02darkapostropheOkay..
13:23:11darkapostropheSo the stuff under System, Settings etc...
13:23:13MrRichardI love you 'u's ;P
13:23:28darkapostropheMrRichard: Those are called umlauts
13:23:30Domonokyfor files and folder you would have to generate .talk files.. the rockbox can also speak those..
13:23:32BigBambiTo read filenames etc, you must record yourslef some talk clips
13:23:46BigBambiDomonoky: you in :)

15:04:43stackswould like a way to start a playlist without having to navigate
15:05:16hcsyou could name it AAA_AARDVARK.m3u
15:05:21LinusNyou can generate a playlist with your pc, and then play it
15:05:50stacksok so I make a play list aaa_aaa.m3u
15:05:55LinusNbut you will have to navigate blindly to play it in the first place
15:05:57stackshow do I get it to play
15:06:14hcswell, the idea is that it's the first in the list, so you just hit select once
15:06:18LinusNafter that, you can resume it by pressing play after starting rockbox
15:06:32LinusNor edit the config file to set the WPS as the startup screen
15:06:56LinusNyou can even manually edit the .playlist_control file to make it play your playlist
15:07:12pixelmaif you set filenames to spell, you can find that .m3u with the voice UI

15:50:33pondlifeDomonoky: Thanks, will play
15:51:35pondlifeDon't know if it's been suggested, but a button to hear the configured voice talk would be useful... I guess RBUtil audio output wouldn't be simple though.
15:52:05pondlifei.e. To check your configuration produces the expected voice before you make the files
15:52:47Domonokypondlife: would be nice.. and shouldnt be to hard, you just have to change the parameters to the tts engines..
15:53:28pondlifeWell you can easily produce the MP3 (or speex?) file, it's playing it back that would be new
15:53:47Domonokythe other (possibily easier) way would be to just generate a short wav, and play it via Qt s sound functions..
15:53:48pondlifeOr do all our supported TTS systems have an audio out option#

15:55:52J-23Hello!
15:56:10pondlifeOne other improvement would be if the voice generation progress bar really showed progress - I suppose a prepass to count dirs/files would be too slow though.
15:56:22Domonokyhm, Qt can only play wav, on all plattforms..
15:56:33pondlifeOK, wav it is then!
15:57:53Domonokyif you have a good idea how to calculate the progress, without first reading all dirs and files... tell me :-)
15:58:44pondlifeNo, you'd have to preread
16:00
16:00:16linuxstbDomonoky: Do you mean it can only play .wav files from disk, or is there an interface to play uncompressed PCM? If the latter, we could incorporate some codecs...
16:01:28pondlifeDomonoky: p.s. Was that a debug (symbols) build of RBUtil? It was 7MB, as opposed to the previous 2.5MB...
16:02:04pondlifeOn another topic, what's the downside for H300 users having "Reduce Ticking" enabled?

19:05:45Robin0800Video ipod
19:05:58lostlogicand latest build?
19:06:02lostlogic(I have an ipod video as well)
19:06:08Robin0800Build from two days ago
19:06:13lostlogicupdate.
19:06:25Robin0800Could it be album art?
19:07:05lostlogicwait... you have album art patched onto a new buffering build!? I know nothing about that patch.

21:04:52Nico_Poh
21:05:06lostlogicat least that was the particular one that I was resolving
21:05:11lostlogicbut codec could also trigger it now that I think of it
21:05:22*bertrik looks into buffering.c
21:05:22lostlogicany time there was a request for data larger than file_chunk it could happen

21:06:32Nico_Plostlogic: but the request doesn't say the required size

21:10:23Nico_Plostlogic: what I don't get is what was preventing the buffering from doing more than a filechunk?

21:11:13linuxstbhcs: I don't know, but a single call to request_buffer is only guaranteed to return a minimum of 32KB.
21:12:15lostlogicNico_P: I can only presume that yield_codec() immediately returns true
21:12:34Nico_Plostlogic: yeah but buffering should resume at some point
21:12:35lostlogicNico_P: my guess is that another event gets written to the buffer ~simultaneously to the buffer_handle
21:12:50lostlogicNico_P: yeah, I can't figure that out either −− that's what I'd hoped you would know
21:12:59lostlogicbecause it should just hit that file again in the buffering loop

21:16:07lostlogicNico_P: I _know_ that the buffer_handle request is sent in bufgetdata
21:16:14lostlogichcs did some detective work to determine that
21:16:41Nico_Pthat's not possible
21:16:53lostlogichcs: huh?
21:17:02Nico_Pbufgetdata returns ERR_DATA_NOT_READY if data isn't ready
21:17:07lostlogicer not hcs, Nico_P
21:17:23Nico_Pbufgetdata doesn't request more data, it lets the caller do it
21:17:24lostlogicer maybe it's codec_request_buffer_callback
21:17:29Nico_Pthat sounds better :)
21:17:40lostlogicok then it's codec_request_buffer_callback −− yeah, that's where hcs had his debugging :)
21:18:37Nico_Pthis one sends only on request for handle buffering, so if it gets aborted it could wait a bit long for the data
21:19:21lostlogicNico_P: yeah, which is why I just introduced that force flag, realistically though, the right thing might be that we need to fix the codecs to only request filechunk of data at a time
21:19:26lostlogicbecause then the bug just goes away on its own
21:19:32Learlinuxstb: Yes. Hence the compiler warning I saw (for Sansa only...) about a bad pointer.
21:20:05hcslostlogic: I recommend returning an error rather than locking up...

21:21:08linuxstbhcs: I agree, these things need to be documented. I discovered it a couple of years ago when talking to Slasheri about my ALAC codec...
21:21:11Learlinuxstb: Didn't say that... :) It must've scrolled by when I was busy with other stuff.
21:21:12lostlogichcs: yeah, we should do limits checking and return an immediate error

21:21:27Learlinuxstb: Oh, sorry.
21:21:54LearI haven't buildt ipodpatcher.
21:22:19linuxstbI mean when you build rbutil - I'm assuming you only got the sansapatcher warning when doing an rbutil build?
21:22:37Nico_PI'll be back in about 1/4 of an hour (hopefully this time it'll be true too)

21:48:10WarWolfdon't work so well, yesterday build archive works fine tho
21:48:19WarWolfyea i do use album-art
21:48:23linuxstbAnd bufread() will provide the whole file?
21:48:26WarWolfdon't work without it
21:48:42lostlogicbufread copies to a dest pointer and will provide as much as it has available up to size
21:49:05linuxstbAh, so it won't block until the whole file is read?
21:49:07lostlogicbufgetdata will not return unless it fails or can satisfy the whole request, which is the result of the current loops, because it gets into a never satisfy
21:49:11lostlogicright
21:49:31lostlogicstill though codec_load_ram should be able to use bufread to read out the codec
21:50:07linuxstbSo it's up to the caller to check the return value of bufread, and keep calling it until the whole file is read?
21:50:21lostlogicyeah, just like a read()
21:50:31*Nico_P is back
21:50:35linuxstbWouldn't it be simpler to make it block until all the data is available?
21:50:35WarWolfahhh seems current build from webpage don't work either so it's just not my build atleast :)
21:50:58lostlogicWarWolf: something specific to x5?
21:51:12WarWolfdunno i only got the x5 :)

22:05:15MrRichardI just installed VMware player and I'm trying to compile some patches
22:05:22MrRichardbut I have basolutely no idea what to do...

22:06:07linuxstbMrRichard: How far have you got? Have you compiled a normal Rockbox build (without patches)?
22:06:09MrRichardI've just been up all night reading the wiki and all the guides.
22:06:15MrRichardI've never compiled
22:06:33MrRichardIn any case I've gotta' leave for work so I'll be back to pester the kind souls of #rockbox later.
22:07:03MrRichardbut before I do leave, which file do I delete to delete my database files on the player?
22:07:20linuxstbAs scorche|w said, the wiki has lots of instructions for compiling...
22:07:45rasherMrRichard: .rockbox/database*
22:08:08MrRichardit has plenty of instructions, I just lack any knowledge in the area and find some of it hard to follow.
22:08:10MrRichardrasher: thanks

22:11:31webguest68where can i download the e200r bootloader
22:11:38*linuxstb checks the timestamps and now agrees with rasher ;)
22:11:48lostlogiclinuxstb: any interest in rewriting codec_load_ram to directly talk to the buffer so that codecs can be allowed to wrap in the new world order?
22:12:04webguest68never mind, i don't need it
22:12:11preglowjmspeex: gonna try porting that stereo code to fixed point now
22:12:22rasherlinuxstb: I'm not too sure now.. http://haxx.rockbox.org/daily/recorder/
22:12:53linuxstbrasher: Yes, I was looking at a mirror...
22:13:11 Part low_light
22:13:16rasherdefinitely not midnight.. perhaps 02:00 utf
22:13:26Bagder6am CET iirc
22:14:01rasherBagder: the timestamps on haxx. seem to disagree
22:14:12rasherI assume that's where they show up first?
22:14:19Bagderwell
22:14:21linuxstbDepends what timezone they're in - haxx could be UTC
22:14:23Bagderthere's more to it
22:14:24 Quit webguest68 (Client Quit)
22:14:40Bagderthe builds are built on a different server and rsynced over to the download master
22:14:57Bagderand on the build server they are done starting 6am our time zone
22:15:02nanokrasher: wouldn't "crontab -l" be an easyer way to figure it out? :)
22:15:30lostlogicmy server pretends to be in PDT even though the physical box is probably in EDT yay timezones
22:15:30rasherSo now we need to know what MrRichard wanted to know.. when they are built, or when they are available
22:15:35linuxstbBagder: Maybe it's worth adding that info to the daily builds page?
22:16:07Bagderwell, I think publishing the svn rev number is more important
22:16:12Bagderthe exact time won't help a lot
22:16:13rasherLooks like they might be available an hour early some days (presumably because the build server finished faster?)
22:16:14WarWolfjust trying to track down whats the problem with last current build for my x5, not that many changes to source tho
22:16:47*amiconn wonders why rsync would mangle time stamps
22:17:00linuxstbBagder: I still think it's nice to know - you can't have too much information ;)
22:17:00Bagderrasher: the download server rsyncs them every 20 minutes during 5 hours every morning
22:17:04lostlogicamiconn: it's mroe that it doesn't mangle them −− they keep the origin server's stamp
22:17:08amiconnThat said, I never used rsync, but I'm used to the fact that copying files keeps correct timestamps
22:17:18amiconneh?
22:17:31linuxstbThe default with "cp" is to not preserve the timestamps...
22:17:34amiconnSo why are they different from 6:xx cet then?
22:17:50amiconnlinuxstb: Odd...
22:17:56Bagderthere's not
22:18:01Bagderthey're
22:18:11lostlogicamiconn: build starts at 5 cet, runs on a server where it's 1300pst, copies back with a 1300 timestamp
22:18:19amiconn[22:14:05] <rasher> Bagder: the timestamps on haxx. seem to disagree
22:18:20BagderI mean, they say 06:xx on the download server locally as well
22:18:38Bagderyes, but he's wrong
22:18:39linuxstbamiconn: I think it's logical - the copy was created at that time, but I always use "-p" to preserve timestamps.
22:18:40rasheramiconn: not really. If you're copying a file, you're creating a new one - not moving the old one. It makes perfect sense to me.
22:19:11Bagderwell, the last builds seem to go at around 07:00 cet
22:19:17amiconnlostlogic: Well, I'm used to the ntfs way of copying files. Ntfs is timezone aware, so timestamps are still correct even if you copy files from a server in cet to server in pst, or wherever
22:19:29WarWolfok, seems like the last changes to settings_list.c makes my x5 crash when i play a mp3
22:19:49WarWolfreverted it to last version seems like everything works just fine now
22:20:00amiconnlinuxstb: I'm also used to having 3 timestamps: creation time, last modification time, and last access time
22:20:13amiconnCopying a file touches the 1st and the 3rd, but not the 2nd
22:20:34amiconnAnd the 2nd is what file browsers show by default...
22:20:45rasheramiconn: creation time is especially yucky, since many modifications are actually done by creating a new copy, then moving it back, so the filesystem has to do all sorts of guessing as to whether this is a new file or not

22:20:55Bagderand "last access" is a great performance killer ;-)
22:21:02lostlogicnoatime ftw
22:21:03amiconnIs it?
22:21:07Bagderit is
22:21:27Bagdermost *nix systems have it as well
22:21:29lostlogicamiconn: forces an actual disk write on every read, specially bad on journaled file systems
22:21:42amiconnThere are caches...
22:21:50rasherAnd especially bad on systems where the file is in cache, but the disk is spun down
22:21:50lostlogicamiconn: journals are not cached
22:22:38linuxstbWarWolf: So you've confirmed that r15389 is fine, but r15390 and later freeze?
22:22:59linuxstbWarWolf: Sorry, add one to those numbers...
22:23:08lostlogiclinuxstb: did that change introduce an additional level of indirection?
22:23:23amiconnSo far I didn't see any negative impact due to last access time handling... I don't even know if it's disableable in windows, and even if it were, I probably wouldn't
22:23:48WarWolfhold on need to check on revs
22:23:56nanokamiconn: if you have caching on your journal (it can happen), you can get in a lot of trouble
22:23:57linuxstblostlogic: Which change?
22:24:22nanokor so i've heard
22:24:28WarWolfim running 15142
22:24:59nanokamiconn: the performance penalty for atime is hardly visible on a workstation. it is there, but you cannot actually feel it, most of the time
22:25:14lostlogicamiconn: the one that warwolf thinks causes his breakge −− he mentioned an audio stkov

23:53:29amiconnYes, but my patch does never miss to make updates visible :)
23:54:18webguest57someone gave me a bootloader and a patch. i need to know how to use that patch on the bootloader
23:55:00amiconnAnd it fixes the occasional bcm stall (frozen gui)

23:57:09krazykitit's an unofficial bootloader, and #rockbox only supports official builds and bootloaders
23:57:42webguest57okay, sorry for asking
23:57:46amiconnBuschel: That code still contains my test indicator for bcm stall: If it resolved a bcm stall, the backlight will light up
23:57:46*lostlogic tests amiconn's patch because it sounds cool
23:58:17amiconnJust 2 if()'s which will be removed before commit
23:58:37webguest57but you can't tell me how to patch a bootloader?
23:58:50amiconnCompiling it throws a warning because I was too lazy to #include "backlight.h" just for this test...
