#rockbox log for 2007-11-07

00:00:18eigmaunless it's Tuesday, then it's three decades.
00:00:38hcs...at least, that should reset it.
00:00:51eigmait's funny though, because you could easily create a program that requires you to hold a button for two decades

00:32:35jpt9in a WPS file, is there any way to display the volume as a percent?
00:33:06Jakeworldhey, I tried updating my build today and encountered a major problem with playback, the files endlessly skip forward
00:33:09amiconnThere is no such concept as volume in percent. Volume is logarithic
00:33:15amiconneigma: Just ask
00:33:36JakeworldI tried using the most recent build, and with a clean build, but it was still happening
00:34:12eigmaamiconn: it's a bit of a long story.. have you ever heard of persistent storage (like an EEPROM) in a LCD controller?

00:36:54eigmaall right, here's the entire story
00:36:58Jakeworldthen it data aborts
00:37:31eigmaI was trying to figure out how to control the backlight brightness, and by looking at the OF, I found that whatever controls it hangs off the SPI bus; I also figured out which GPIO was the chip select.
00:37:35JakeworldI'd say what the data abort is, but the LCD is off

00:38:10eigmathe commands are something like this: A4h 00h XXh BBh, where XX is between 00h and 80h and sets the brightness of the backlight.
00:39:10pixelmaJakeworld: hmm... can't help you there (I neither have a gigabeat nor musepack files). I guess though that it's still some resulting bugs from the Metadata on buffer changes and followup changes. Maybe Nico_P could look into it, he's involved in this and has a gigabeat
00:39:12eigmait turns out that BBh also controls something about the screen; I think it's something like contrast.. when too high or too low, the screen looks washed out, almost a negative image and in shades of gray
00:39:51eigmaI tried sending other Axh commands, I scanned from A0h and AFh, and I somehow got it stuck on the 00h contrast setting.. it wouldn't go back to normal even after disconnecting the battery
00:39:56JakeworldI'll try and pass it along to him then, I'll give some other codecs a run and see if they do it as well

00:41:03eigmaI also found that the OF sends a command that returns data (the only one that I have seen to far that is a "read"), which is A8h 00h.
00:41:23eigmawhen the screen was borked, it was returning a value that was causing the OF to skip some initialization commands

00:41:55eigmaI tried sending those commands myself manually and the screen was fixed, for good −− and from then on, A8h returned a value that caused the OF to send those initialization commands on every subsequent boot

01:20:17hcsIf I attempt to seek backwards in a file when that part of the buffer has been overwritten, what should happen? It looks like I just get an error.
01:21:45lostlogichcs: that's broken.
01:21:53lostlogichcs: how broken varies on other factors
01:21:58lostlogicFS8092
01:22:03hcsHum.
01:22:22hcsThus "this is broken" in the comment, I suppose.
01:22:36hcsGuess it's back to the old ADX, eh?
01:23:14lostlogicNico_P: hmm, I'm slightly confused.
01:23:22hcsso much for playing nice...
01:23:50lostlogichcs: why are you changing back?
01:23:57Nico_Plostlogic: by what?
01:23:59lostlogicall codecs have the problem of seeking backwards off of the buffer
01:24:10lostlogicNico_P: that diff doesn't apply to current SVN afaics
01:24:20hcslostlogic: because ADXs almost always do this seek, so I run into it an awful lot
01:24:38Nico_Plostlogic: no it doesn't... it's from MoB prehistory
01:24:39lostlogichcs: they seek back to the beginning of the file later during playback!?
01:25:01Nico_Plostlogic: MPC relies on its bufread calls being satisfied
01:25:02hcslostlogic: not necessarily clear to the beginning, but back, yeah
01:25:33lostlogichcs: :( that... that's potentially problematic.
01:25:33 Quit JRoT|Stage (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
01:25:50hcslostlogic: That's why I did those huge requests, to keep the beginning of the file from being overwritten. Why did you think I was doing it?
01:25:52lostlogichcs: if the buffer's been shrunk since it last seeked there it'll be off buffer regardless of old vs. new buffering code I think
01:26:47lostlogicNico_P: hmm, by definition a bufread call can be checked &| looped over to get the full amount of data
01:26:55lostlogicit's only bufgetdata that is pretty much past-fail
01:27:08eigmaamiconn: know anything about the GCP signal in EPSON LCDs?
01:27:17lostlogicbecause bufgetdata may have a permanent unsatisfiable request for contiguous data
01:27:27lostlogicbut bufread can always fill furthre into the client's poitner
01:27:34lostlogicwhat's your proposed solution?
01:27:50Nico_Plostlogic: yeah but the fact that the chunksize check is common to both breaks bufread... I'll move it to bufgetdata
01:28:01lostlogicNico_P: no.
01:28:31lostlogicNico_P: neither one is allowed to request data that would require a buffer_handle request to read more than a single filechunk in order to satisfy it
01:28:35Nico_Plostlogic: why? also in it, size = MAX(avail,BUFFERING_DEFAULT_FILECHUNK); looks wrong to me... shouldn't it be MIN?
01:28:41lostlogicintroduces potential (likely) long waits
01:28:47Nico_Plostlogic: I don't agree
01:29:03lostlogicno, it's _ok_ to satisfy more than a filechunk if it's already available
01:29:24lostlogicNico_P: we cannot offer any guarantee of _when_ any more than _one_ chunk of data will be read by a buf_request_buffer_handle call.
01:29:33Nico_Pyeah but then you return more than originally asked for
01:29:46lostlogicso unless it loops the buf_request_buffer_handle call it's absolutely illegal to request more than filechunk mor than avail
01:31:02Nico_Pyeah I see what you mean
01:31:03lostlogicNico_P: could do a MIN(size,MAX(avail,filechunk)).
01:31:31Nico_Pyeah that's what I was thinking
01:31:49lostlogicI think that's right, I had misthought that size was already > avail at that point.
01:32:19 Quit eigma ("homework")
01:32:45Nico_Pin my case it wasn't I think... size was less than avail but then size became avail
01:33:01Nico_Pand trying to copy that much data failed
01:33:02lostlogicNico_P: yeah, definitely possible.
01:33:08lostlogicI were wrong.
01:33:16Nico_Psize = MIN(size, MAX(avail, BUFFERING_DEFAULT_FILECHUNK)); fixes MPC
01:33:20Nico_PI'll commit
01:33:21lostlogicgreat :)
01:33:40Nico_Pthis is a very delicate alchemy :p

01:35:47lostlogic(I'll speak my theory before I hafta run here and then Nico can get to you after his minute)
01:36:36lostlogicwhat kind of backward seeks are likely in adx?
01:37:09lostlogicmy idea is that you can avoid advancing the buffer after reads until you won't need the earlier data any more but that might depend on where buffer wraps fall :(
01:37:27hcslostlogic: that was the logic on which the old version worked
01:37:40scorchehcs: but it got lost?
01:38:07hcsit seemed to work pretty well until I got to the Sansa
01:38:28hcsand all these changes being made to buffering recently have destabilized things
01:38:38lostlogichcs: hmm, so what happens if the distance between playing and earliest seek needed is wrapping the buffer end?
01:39:11lostlogichcs: I think you're right that with the latest patches to buffering today the old code might be more stable than the new.
01:39:31hcsI can accept a smaller buffer than the whole file, then when it hits the end it requests the whole thing again.
01:39:31lostlogic(even though it might cause some logf warnings from the buffering code)
01:39:48lostlogichcs: but what if the whole thing will never be satisfied because it wraps the buffere nd?
01:39:52lostlogicthat's what I'm concerned with.
01:40:03hcsyeah, it's a bad strategy, don't know why it worked so long
01:40:23Nico_Phcs: I ended up not trying your ADX files because I thought the prob was fixed, but I'll have a look
01:41:03lostlogicNico_P: "which would be bad" <−− :)
01:41:14Nico_P;)
01:41:18hcsNico_P: please do, those three are large enough that the first two fill the buffer, then when the third is loaded near the end of the second (but before the second is entirely done) things go awry

03:18:00safetydanBrian_: see http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/NewPort
03:18:03SoapI don't want to quote the party line, because it always sounds...well..."jerky" - but it is true. Rockbox is never "planned" in such a manner. People port it to the players they are willing and able to port it to. There is no central command issuing orders like "port to player X" or "make more games".
03:18:28alleleI installed the rockbox toolchain using 'sudo sh rockbox.sh', but when I try compiling rockbox I get "arm-elf-gcc: command not found".
03:19:44Soapallele, that is a failure to add the newly compiled (via the shell script) cross-compilers to your PATH. This step is covered in the wiki. Give me a sec and I'll pull up the page if you are not currently looking at it.
03:23:01Soaplooks like that step isn't mentioned explicitly in http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/CrossCompiler#Step_2a_Automatic_build after all, allele. See the very last part of the Manual Build section of that page for a mention of adding the compilers to your PATH.

03:27:45TTThomasok. thats scary. I'm not going to be trying on my old rio carbon anytime soon like i was pondering.
03:28:11Lloreansdoyon: If it's supposed to be _spelling_ the filename, why should it speak the filetype rather than spell it at the end?
03:29:30sdoyonLlorean: The idea is to cut down on the painful spelling you have to listen to. You can quickly skip over files of the wrong type.
03:30:17LloreanPerhaps there should be an option "speak type first" that speaks the type of what you have highlighted first (whether spelling or using .talk clips)?
03:31:14LloreanIt seems to me even with .talk clips you might want to know the type first, meanwhile just arbitrarily speaking the type first when people expect spelling is forcing your choice on users who may not want it (it would actually slow me down a lot since I don't have any repetition in my lists, so I just use the first letter or two to identify what's highlighted)
03:31:53LloreanHearing "Folder" first before hearing the beginning of the folder name would slow me down drastically the few times I use voice.

03:33:01LloreanHearing "Folder" before every folder and having to wait longer before you can hear the first few letters of its name, hearing "MP3" before the letters to identify the track name...

03:33:55LloreanIt only really seems useful if A) You're very uncertain of the filenames on your player, and B) You've got a mix of filetypes in each folder. Most times you only have Folders, and Files, and I think a lot of times you don't have files and folders alongside each other, since the first entries are always folders, so as soon as you get to a letter *before* the previous letter, you know you're past the folders.
03:34:08sdoyonLlorean: well, in use I found it helped. It's true in some cases it'll introduce repetition.
03:34:25LloreanIn what situation does it reduce repetition?
03:34:32sdoyonLlorean: Try looking for a bookmark file...
03:35:10LloreanSo, it reduces repetition for bookmarks while increasing it in "Scrolling through folders" and "Scrolling through MP3 files"
03:35:15LloreanWhich ones are more commonly used features?
03:35:59sdoyonLlorean: Well, I guess I should have brought this up here then. I had kind of assumed it was OK as it had been languishing on the tracker for a long time. I'm not blaming you mind you, hard to follow everything on there.
03:36:13 Quit hardeep ("leaving")
03:36:40LloreanWell, I didn't expect it to be committed one-sided, since it's very definitely a case of something that works contrary to the setting name, since it's not spelling any more.

03:37:39sdoyonLlorean: uh... there's still a lot of spelling going on :-). You know it's not a big deal, I'll just revert it while we discuss a better alternative then.
03:37:54LloreanI think an option "Speak extension first" is all you need.
03:38:07LloreanAnd have it speak it for either .talk or spelling if that's enabled.
03:38:08 Quit barrywardell ()
03:38:16LloreanSince I *can* see it being useful, but think it is even for .talk when it is.
03:39:52sdoyonLlorean: .talk is another case IMHO. You hear the whole name in under 1.5s most of the time. I think it's best to include the extension in the .talk clip (although the current .talk generation script doesn't do that I believe). The file types that are defined are not so specific: it's audio, not mp3 for example.
03:40:03qwmbig yawn.
03:40:34Lloreansdoyon: Still, folder names wouldn't have extensions. Files don't necessarily need extensions either, if they're not audio files.
03:41:01Lloreansdoyon: Even if you do have .talk clips generating extension, and even if you have it generate .talk clips for *all* files and folders, it's possible that you might want to hear them first.
03:41:24LloreanIt seems at least as useful to me as speaking them for spelling.
03:41:51sdoyonLlorean: this commit has it say "folder" for .talk clips as well, only AFTER, as most of the time you know it's a folder already. And when there's no extension, there's no type...?
03:42:27sdoyonLlorean: "hear them first"?
03:42:40LloreanThe type.
03:42:46LloreanI still don't understand the difficulty with spelling.

03:46:42LloreanEither way, I think forcing people to listen to the type first is a bad choice to make, especially if they willingly choose to have it spelled because they want it spelled
03:49:14sdoyonLlorean: Well, at the risk of sounding stupid... I admit this one was kind of in the backlog of patches, and I have been using .talk clips a lot more than spelling for a while. You make good points. Hearing folder all the time could often be annoying in particular.
03:51:16sdoyonLlorean: I remember liking this much when I had a mix of file types, configs and firmwares and such. And the point about the bookmark: it's still faster in some cases to listen just for folder or bookmark with little or no spelling...
03:52:18Lloreansdoyon: I can see that as being true only if you don't know what file you've saved the bookmark for, or if you can't remember.
03:52:26LloreanBut either way, I'm not saying it's a bad option

04:20:13nanokas i thought: the steapness of the curve increases dramatically after a certain voltage
04:20:45nanokat about 3.6 volts it starts to be obvious, it takes about 20 minutes form there to shutdown
04:20:54nanok(sansa e200)
04:21:23nanokup to that point, it seems to stay fairly linear
04:21:38nanokbut i would have to do more tests..
04:21:59sdoyonnanok: Interesting. I recently added spontaneeous voicing of battery level, but didn't know when a final warning would be appropriate...
04:28:00nanokcurrently it seems to shutdown at 3277 mV, but i need more samples
04:28:36nanokfrom what i have now, it seems a smarter threshold would be 3500 (would loose only about 10 minutes of play time)
04:28:55nanokor at least 3450, 3400
04:29:13sdoyonnanok: is there a notion of unsafe level to do writes to flash?
04:29:18nanokin that range the curve is getting quite steap, so the battery is not very happy
04:29:43nanoksdoyon: interesting point. that i think should be considered also ;)
04:30:08nanoksdoyon: right now i'm just playng with the bat bench and ploting with gnuplot
04:30:43nanokthe main reason is that the battery indicator is currently fairly.. dumb. and i think it can be made _very_ smart very easyly

04:32:08nanoki thought about a safer level of shutdown, so as not to stress the battery too much, but now that you mention it, writes to "disk" would be another thing to consider (but i think the lowest of the two should just be set as shutdown threshold)
04:33:26nanokso, i take it we still haven't got the new usb code.. :(
04:33:57*nanok hates having to use the OF to charge the battery, not to mention file transfers
04:34:12sdoyonDigressing a bit, but why is the estimated battery life so low on my X5 (X5L actually), like 6hours, while it used to be more like 15ish (and more in reality)?

04:35:03Brian_When will rockbox for sansa clip be released
04:35:19sdoyonnanok: I mean just the estimate, in info screen...?
04:35:30nanokcurrently, as far as i understand, the voltage is read and, based on that, a "blind" linear estimate is made
04:35:58nanoksdoyon: oh, okay, that one i think is theme independent
04:36:21sdoyonnanok: must have changed at some point in the last months, it used to be closer to reality...
04:36:28advcomp2019Brian_, do not know because there is no timeline
04:37:13nanokso basically you have 4.2 i think which is 100% and the shutdown threshold which is 0%, between them, the rb estimates linearly where you are, and gives you a percentage
04:37:14advcomp2019Brian_, plus the people here does not have much info of what is inside the clip
04:37:22nanoknow, for the estimated time, i am not so sure
04:39:50nanoki am not certain if it estimates the consumption somehow or it is also just based on some figure (like, 100% on target X is y hours, so we have this many hours left)
04:40:37nanoksdoyon: and i am not smart enough to read the code and tell ;)
04:43:32 Quit Brian_ ("Leaving")
04:52:17nanokthe idea would be to set the thresholds to something more suitable, and maybe to have a simple algorithm to estimate the time remaining and percentage more realitcially, like estimating the steapness of the curve locally, and predicting the shutdown time based on that (this should mean one would also have a better idea of how the current "avergae" usage pattern influences the lifetime)

05:37:31jpt9it's laggy with audio on the simulator on a 2GHz dual-core laptop :-)
05:37:44jpt9is it still laggy on the ipod without the audio?

05:40:13Mouser_XHonestly, I think something like a GB game's "Input name" screen keyboard would be nice...

05:40:45jpt9and the ability to pick words off the screen (for the text adventure)

05:41:33jpt9some sort of input mode (like T9/abc/123/symbols on phones).
05:41:50jpt9you guys should check out the insane number of input methods iPodLinux has, and possibly steal some from there :-)

05:48:02jpt9how about user-defined keyboard layouts?
05:49:10Mouser_XI think the problem you run into with changing the keyboard, is in making it too complex.
05:49:17jpt9yeah...
05:49:28jpt9user-defined layouts would be nice...
05:49:35Mouser_XI don't think a user-defined layout would be a good idea, because of that.

07:14:27lemurgrlHi. :D
07:17:14lemurgrlI had a question about where I would find out about 6th gen iPod classic support?
07:17:32psycho_maniacnot from rockbox.
07:18:00lemurgrlI know Apple took measures against installing user created firmware on the 6th gen iPod.
07:18:41lemurgrlI'm coming down from an iAudio X5L which crapped out on me. To my dismay Apple is pretty much the only company still making HDD based DAPS (which aren't PMPS)
07:19:06lemurgrlIs there a comprehensive source where I can read up on the progress of Rockbox on the classic.
07:19:21lemurgrlIf the prospect is hopeful or grim?
07:19:54psycho_maniacthere is no progress.
07:19:55lostlogiclemurgrl: nobody's started porting to those devices
07:19:56krazykitlemurgrl, grim. here's what's happened so far: pretty much nothing.
07:20:09lostlogicaren't we a bunch of gloom and doomers
07:20:16lemurgrlSad.
07:20:26lostlogicit's not remotely impossible though, you should start the port
07:20:29lemurgrlMakes me wish for a follow up to the X5.
07:20:50lemurgrlI would if I wasn't an idiot when it comes to programming.

07:21:34lemurgrlI dunno. :/
07:21:36Mouser_XI've heard the H100 is an excellent choice as well.
07:21:39lemurgrlHow's the battery life?

07:21:57lostlogic(I broke two of them before getting my ipv)
07:22:00Mouser_XThe battery life on the Gigabeat is fine. Easily 12+ hours.
07:22:08Mouser_XProbably 15+.

08:57:01amiconnI think I know now how to add backlight brightness to G5 and keep software pwm fade-in + fade-out
08:58:19LinusNnice
08:58:49krazykitamiconn, a better solution than the patch that some use, where it flips the backlight on and off really fast.
08:58:52amiconnIt's a bit tricky because backlight-nano_video.c needs to track state of 2 pins, and pulse counts on a 3rd
08:59:17amiconnkrazykit: That's a hack. I know now how to control the hardware circuit for backlight brightness
08:59:46amiconnWe could also fade in/out using that circuit, but that wouldn't look smooth, especially at low brightness levels
08:59:49LinusNamiconn: but the resolution is too low for nice fading?
08:59:54amiconn32 levels
08:59:54krazykiti know it's a hack, that's why your solution is better.
08:59:56LinusNah :-)
09:00
09:00:18amiconn32 true different levels that is. The lowest level is *not* off
09:00:34amiconnIt's the level that the apple loader uses
09:01:22amiconnI think our bootloader should use that level too, in order to avoid flickering backlight at boot (minimum in apple loader -> maximum in rockbox loader -> user level in rockbox)
09:02:37amiconnLinusN: The (well, your) G5.5 already has experimental backlight adjustment on it (adjusted from 'View HW Info', and the level not surviving reboots)
09:03:06LinusNnice
09:03:22***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
09:03:44amiconnAnd it turned out that the Nano has the exact same circuit - but apple doesn't offer brightness adjustment in the Nano OF (!) They only use it for fading

09:10:19pondlifeYep
09:11:06ddaltonI read your stuff on 8083 and not sure if it would be accepted.
09:11:14pondlifeWhich bit?
09:11:43ddaltona function talking all this stuff and not shutting up isn't a good idea in my opinion. There has to be a way to shut it up.
09:11:51pondlife?
09:12:08pondlifeWell if you want to read the WPS, you can choose when to trigger a read
09:12:10ddaltonpondlife: the menu option part...
09:12:20pondlifeThat's just a way to access it.
09:12:35ddaltonyes but I prefer "track info"
09:12:41 Join JRoT|Stage [0] (n=JRoT@ip4da03737.direct-adsl.nl)
09:13:11ddaltonyou want it to just voice all the stuff if the user activates that option? If I have heard enough what do I do?
09:13:11pondlifeBasically, you'd press LONG SELECT to get the context menu, then it would say "Read WPS". You'd press SELECT and it would return to the WPS whilst speaking all of the WPS tags
09:13:29pondlifeHave a simple WPS with just the basics on
09:13:47pondlifeAlternatively, we agree. Just need to get the track info spoken.
09:13:48ddaltonpondlife: that wouldn't shut up for ages. Remember spelling as well. How much of your aduio do you want to be interupted.

09:14:07pondlifePersonally, I'd only use the track info option
09:14:17ddaltonpondlife: then commit the id3 patch from fs#6323.
09:14:25ddaltonmaybe it not haven't looked at the code...
09:14:34ddaltonmaybe not
09:14:48pondlifeWould talking support in Track Info do this for you?
09:14:58pondlifeIf so, I'll close 8083
09:15:01ddaltonok ill right a comment there saving me having to write the same thing twice then tell me your thoughts.
09:15:16ddaltonpondlife: don't close it!
09:15:26JdGordonpondlife: ifdeffing it at the lower level is going to be annoying.. so untill somone actually tries getting sound on hwcodec sim i tinhk that patch is good enough
09:15:30ddaltonthere is another part to it which hasn't really been addressed...
09:16:31ddaltonpondlife: give me a minute. Ill try and write something up
09:17:52ddaltonpondlife: ill do the replaying part and if that doesn't get accepted then oh well. And tell them to use track info like we agreed on. Happy with that?
09:19:17pondlifeReplaying part?
09:19:19*ddalton Life will be easier with the commit of p6331
09:19:35pondlifeYou mean, like read the WPS tags?

09:21:51pondlifeGotcha

09:22:08ddaltonill close it and put it in a new patch then?
09:22:17pondlifeNo, keep that going
09:22:22ddaltonoh ok.
09:22:30pondlifeBut I doubt anything using a button will make it into SVN
09:22:37pondlifeAlthough I quite like the idea
09:22:51pondlifeYou'd need a dedicated "SPEAK" button really

09:26:12pondlifeRather than trying to update every screen, see if any "repeat talk" function could be built into talk.c. It would need to remember the last spoken ID array (or string or whatever).
09:26:35pondlifeBut we need to avoid bloating the code much more, or all this talking is going to start getting removed ;)
09:27:21ddaltonpondlife: good idea. Got any suggestions on how to do that?

09:41:43J(hope that made sense!)
09:42:05pixelmapondlife: it's not only because of the red deltas for me. It's also because there's is the possiblilty that voice starts getting annoying if it talks too much. I want to hear the music, and by the way, I already enjoy voice more on hwcodec because it talks less...
09:42:06pondlifeProbably not. Both short and long menu are already used

09:51:05Bagderis there a wiki page summarizing the nano situation?
09:53:58 Quit daurnimator ("Cyas later...")
09:54:46pondlifeHmm, could it be that the Nano is poorly designed, so whilst the CPU runs fine, it produces enough heat to upset the ATA controller or other components? Maybe the OF sleeps more than Rockbox, so no build up occurs?
09:54:56*pondlife waffles in an uninformed manner..
09:54:59Bagdercould be yes
09:55:15Bagderwe do use more power so we could be making it hotter

11:42:57aliaskI like it because I can just read the logs and see anything gigabeat specific
11:43:07aliaskRather than wade through #rockbox logs

11:57:03GodEateris it worth submitting the result as a patch ? Or would one of you chaps with commit access care to do similar ?

12:08:23GodEaterthere's quite a lot of files outside the codecs tree (which I could leave alone easily enough) - but do we copy much code from other places to locations outside our codec tree ?
12:08:51n1sok, got the imx31 datasheet to open and it seems the built in rtc fires an interrupt when an alarm occurs so I assume the chip must be in some state of powered on
12:09:52n1swhile the mc13783 datasheet says this "A Time Of Day (TOD) alarm function can be used to turn on the phone and alert the processor."

12:11:36GodEatercould we fix plugins which are rockbox specific (i.e. not doom, zxbox or rockboy) ?
12:11:47aliaskn1s: Well that raises a good question, when the thing is off, how off is it? I think that the battery is tied to an interrupt to power the unit on, so as soon as you connect the battery (with the switch), it turns the unit on.
12:11:58LinusNGodEater: of course
12:12:07GodEateror would you rather leave everything in plugins alone completely ?
12:12:12LinusNGodEater: show me the list of files
12:12:38aliaskIf that's the case, then the best we can do in terms of turning the unit off completely would be to put it to sleep, as turning it off would just turn it back on
12:12:56GodEaterLinusN: http://pastebin.ca/764561 (I've removed codecs already)

12:20:58markunaliask: yes, consumes about 0.78mA while sleeping
12:21:02LinusNGodEater: sure
12:21:20linuxstbGodEater: Regarding tabs, ipod_fw.c is just a copy of the IPL make_fw.c, so maybe tabs should stay there.
12:21:37LinusNGodEater: we will be eternally hated by the keepers of other patches :-)
12:21:50amiconnLinusN: sh2d is imported, isn't it?
12:22:03LinusNamiconn: i didn't know
12:22:04markunaliask: and if we turn off RAM we could probably lower that quite a bit more (right, amiconn?)
12:22:18Soappondlife, That is a good point (adding a sticky about the Nano thread since locking) I didn't think about. I was running off the assumption that now all the relevant information is in the first and last pages (the only two pages people are appearing to read), but I didn't consider the fact now that the thread is locked it will slip further and further down the page until it isn't seen by a casual viewer (the ones I was targeting) at all.
12:22:40LinusNamiconn: we have imported plenty of files in firmware/include too, but i think they are fairly stable and easy to sync manually
12:22:54GodEaterlinuxstb: oops - too late =/

12:25:49SoapThough, pondlife / pixelma, the front page is arguably a better place for a "notice" on the issues some Nanos are experiencing than the forums perhaps?
12:26:03*linuxstb isn't sure he likes these cosmetic patches - it breaks "svn annotate"
12:26:36GodEaterlinuxstb: surely though it only breaks it once
12:26:41linuxstbThat's enough...
12:27:30GodEateryou seem to do enough tab policing yourself however...
12:27:56linuxstbTrue, which is why I'm starting to doubt it's usefulness.
12:28:08linuxstbs/'//
12:28:44GodEaterwell someone seems to have done it on some of the files I'm trying to keep a patch sync'd against
12:28:52GodEaterso I just thought I'd try to get the whole tree in one hit
12:30:01aliaskn1s: I haven't tested your patch yet, but it seems that the spi code is unreliable. I'll have to look into it tomorrow.
12:30:37GodEateranyway - unless someone chooses to commit that patch, then you won't have to worry will you ?
12:30:54linuxstbGodEater: I know it's been done a lot in the past, I'm just asking everyone else if they still consider it beneficial.
12:31:11GodEaterand the sound of the silent response is deafening ;)
12:31:32 Quit aliask ("sleep")
12:31:34linuxstbPatience...
12:31:59amiconnImho it is.
12:33:48GodEaterit seemed at least as if some of the tabs in the files weren't even leading ones - they appeared in some very odd places
12:34:03linuxstbI know ffmpeg have hooked into their SVN a check for tabs and trailing whitespace, and reject commits containing them. It could be helpful if we do something similar, to prevent the need for post-commit fixes.
12:34:16GodEaterI was thinking similarly
12:34:25GodEateror even get it to silently change them
12:34:37linuxstbPresumably we could make file-by-file exceptions.
12:34:40amiconnHmm, but we can't do that in general
12:35:49 Join MajorC [0] (i=redeem@host183-38.bornet.net)
12:36:21GodEaternot unless someone's volunteering to maintain the list of exceptions
12:36:29GodEater<−− isn't volunteering
12:37:49amiconnWell, everything in subdirs under apps/codecs/ needs to be excluded, and all files named 'Makefile'
12:37:55*pondlife thinks manual code policing is fine
12:39:51linuxstbGodEater: That's easy - if you attempt to commit a file with tabs, and it's rejected, then that's the time to add the file to the list of exceptions. Hopefully the exceptions file would be in SVN. It's a very small percentage of Rockbox source files.
12:40:49linuxstbAnd I disagree about apps/codecs - a lot of files are Rockbox specific, others come from ffmpeg (same no-tabs rule as us).
12:42:24GodEaterhttp://pastebin.ca/764587 <−− codecs with tabs in
12:43:27GodEaterfeel free to edit and I'll submit another diff with ones you think shouldbe tidied too
12:43:30linuxstbOK, the ffmpeg-derived files shouldn't - i.e. libffmpegFLAC and libwma, and I don't think adx.c or sid.c should either (IIUC they're Rockbox-specific codecs).
12:45:00*GodEater has no idea what adx or sid do
12:46:40GodEateramiconn: I only did the policing for files named *.c or *.h - so that skipped all Makefiles
12:47:11linuxstbsid.c is the SID codec. Looking at it, the TABs look accidental, so I think they can go. adx.c is the ADX codec written for Rockbox by hcs, and tabs again look accidental.
12:47:17GodEaterI'm not sure of the rules on .S files either - so I left them alone
12:48:45linuxstbGodEater: BTW, how did you remove the tabs in your patch? Looking at adx.c as an example, some will need to be replaced by 8 spaces, some by 4...
12:49:01GodEaterI used tab2space
12:50:20GodEaterI made the assumption that people who were accidentally using spaces would at least have their tabstops set to 4 chars.
12:50:26GodEaterperhaps this is in error however
12:50:55linuxstbYes, I think it will be optimistic to think it can be done automatically.
12:51:30linuxstbYou could test with adx.c and see how it looks...
12:51:35GodEaterI already did
12:51:40GodEatermostly it looks fine
12:51:46GodEater=/
12:52:21GodEateractually - I lie - I've not run it on adx yet
12:52:25GodEaterit looks dreadful already
12:52:31amiconnGodEater: .S files should be fixed too
12:53:09amiconnlinuxstb: The files directly in apps/codecs/ should be fixed too imho, but not files in subdirs of that
12:53:26*pondlife gets the daily mention of #7738 in...
12:53:45GodEaterrunning tab2space on it actually imroves it
12:53:47GodEater+p
12:54:09pondlifeGodEater: What's holding #7738 up? Removal of the setting to a fixed value?
12:54:47linuxstbamiconn: Not even the ffmpeg-derived ones?
12:55:37GodEaterpondlife: no idea
12:55:54GodEaterpondlife: that's why I just sync'd it again
12:56:10pondlifeAh, ok.. I thought you (and jhMikeS) had some reason..
12:56:34GodEaterpondlife: I'm in no position to say
12:56:49pondlifeYou at least have an iPod...
12:56:50linuxstbpondlife: Do you think there needs to be a setting?
12:56:58GodEaterhttp://pastebin.ca/764597 <−− list of files including .S
12:57:10pondlifelinuxstb: No big opinion, but I'd hope not
12:57:17pondlifeAssuming the OF doesn't need one
12:57:50pondlife I don't even have a scrollwheel... but that patch seems to have been hanging around too long.
12:58:16linuxstbI think that's the general view. So the setting needs to be removed, and we need to ensure a sensible value for the configurable parts of the patch for each ipod.
12:59:01GodEaterand currently we've only had feedback (that I know of) from a video owner (me), and a nano owner (Llorean) - both of whom agree that the current defaults appear "sensible"
12:59:29linuxstbI guess I should test then ;) And also a mini2g owner (amiconn?)

14:09:54JdGordonno, thats not very nice
14:10:16JdGordoni dont tihnk thats nice anway ;p
14:10:47n1sI would think that behaviour is expected and it would allow enough time for reading the splash and no waiting time...

14:12:01JdGordonalthough... I guess it does actually make sense to wait...
14:12:15JdGordonthe splashes which dont block would stay non blocking
14:12:29JdGordonanyone else want to comment?
14:12:41*JdGordon doesnt think waiting indefinatly would be good for voiceing
14:13:21preglowi'm just kind of opposed to splashes being easily aborted by accident
14:13:26preglowthe whole point is making the user notice them
14:13:34JdGordonits not as easy as it sounds
14:14:11JdGordonactually... it should be _CANCEL ... makes it even harder to press accidently
14:14:14preglowstuff like "nothing to resume" is quite ok to abort, but there are more important splashes
14:14:30JdGordonlike?
14:14:33preglowJdGordon: i guess that makes sense
14:15:04linuxstbJdGordon: What do you mean by "and pressing late shouldnt be a problem" ? If the user presses it late, Rockbox will do something else with the keypress...
14:15:22n1sright voice wouldn't like indefinate waiting
14:16:05JdGordonlinuxstb: because the splashes are up for a few seconds.. you have a very small window between it exiing and the other scrww redrwing when you could accidently press a button
14:16:35JdGordonits not like you could see it come up and then try to pres but its gone already
14:16:48JdGordon... except on the splashes which dont block
14:16:55amiconnSplashes without timeout should stay non-blocking. Everything else would be nasty...
14:17:52*JdGordon doesnt see how adding this makes them more nasty
14:18:21amiconnGodEater, preglow: 4th gen and higher have the wheel hooked up to the opto controller. 1st..3rd gen and mini 1st gen have it on gpio ports
14:19:02preglowamiconn: perhaps 1-2g would be better served using the sansa wheel code directly? both are physical rotary wheels
14:19:03JdGordonlinuxstb: its impossible to press too late... unless you start pressing when your already past get_action() in the other screen which means ts redrawn already... the context change means it will ignore imput until a release

14:23:57preglowand let's keep this simple...
14:24:19preglowi really don't see this as much of a problem, i'm fine with the way it is
14:24:22preglowi almost never see splashes
14:24:44linuxstbDoesn't apps/ already have access to the button queue?
14:24:53JdGordonnot dirctly
14:25:14linuxstbbutton_queue_count() ?
14:25:46linuxstbpreglow: I agree, it doesn't annoy me at all.
14:26:00JdGordoncould use that...but that makes accidently missing the splash waay to easy
14:26:28JdGordonthe _REL event will be in the queue for most tagrtes whent he splash is shown

14:29:52PrintHorizonHey, I'm trying to get the "Album Artist" tag in my MP3s to work for the database feature of Rockbox. foobar2000 uses this tag by default, but Rockbox doesn't recognize it. Anyone know what exactly the tag should be called for Rockbox to recognize it?
14:29:59preglowtoo bad coldfirev2 doesn't have much of a pipeline
14:30:53PrintHorizonI'm thinking fb2k simply formats the title a certain way and Rockbox wants the title a different way. I'm just not sure how to see. :)
14:31:03n1spreglow: I am fairly certain it didn't know about move.l stalls at all before
14:31:06preglown1s: where do you find this out, btw?

14:33:38preglown1s: i guess we should try to go 4.3, then
14:34:23preglowwould rock if we had someone involved with gcc onboard, i'm pretty sure we're one of the larger bases of code running on coldfire publically available
14:34:41n1spreglow: I intend to test with the next weekly snapshot (released on friday nighs) to see if it got nicer
14:35:30n1spreglow: you mean someone that would code up some emac support for gcc :-P
14:36:05PrintHorizonAh, from the Wiki, it appears that the tag Rockbox wants from MP3s for "Album Artist" is "BAND"
14:36:37preglown1s: nah, i've given up on that being possible to do in a nice way, but there are plenty of other things that could be nicer

14:39:48PrintHorizonOh?
14:39:51PrintHorizonOkay
14:39:54PrintHorizonThanks
14:40:17PrintHorizonThe "Album Artist" section of the database seems to read from the "ARTIST" tag by default

14:40:22roolkuPrintHorizon: I don't know what foobar translates that into :(
14:40:32PrintHorizonWhich is fine because all I need to apply an album artist to various compilations
14:40:39PrintHorizonAnd one semi-split EP
14:41:11roolkuPrintHorizon: if it doesn't find TPE2/TP2, it will use TPE1/TP1 (artist)
14:41:18PrintHorizonAh!

14:42:35PrintHorizonThanks. Well, I saw in the wiki at http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/DataBase#Supported_Tags that the albumartist tag is read from "BAND" for MP3s. I applied that to a set of files and it seems to work great.
14:42:58PrintHorizonSo I guess TPE2/TP2 = BAND
14:43:17roolkuTPE2/TP2 might well be called BAND
14:43:20roolku:)
14:43:40PrintHorizonOkay, this is cool. :) Thanks.
14:44:59PrintHorizonI like when I have a few releases by a band, and their compilation contributions are grouped in with the rest of their releases... but I dislike having a bunch of artists with one or two tracks populating the database. So browsing by Artist and Album Artist is like having the best of both worlds...

15:12:31sawyer_iHP_140I have and iHP-140, running rockbox r15492-071106, and its locking up on various files that play fine with the 1.66 ver of the iriver ware. It is happening on various types - wav, mp3 and also doesn't matter if its plugged in or not.
15:13:16preglowhow locking up?
15:13:48sawyer_iHP_140sorry to ask such a question but after looking through the docs I'm not finding a direction.
15:14:06sawyer_iHP_140It shows the song title, and the song length
15:14:24sawyer_iHP_140but no sound, and it shows sometimes the play or pause icon on the bottom

15:15:57preglowany way convenient for you
15:17:20sawyer_iHP_140hehe, I did it again. It seems to happen with alot of the files I have.

15:17:38sawyer_iHP_140I think I could email one of the files.
15:18:10LinusNsawyer_iHP_140: does it happen if you put one of the problem files in a separate directory and play it there?
15:18:12sawyer_iHP_140yes - it is consistent for me. Do you think since it is so many of the files I have its an issue with my player and not a rockbox issue>
15:18:13sawyer_iHP_140?
15:18:34sawyer_iHP_140let me tru to put it in a different dir.
15:18:50LinusNthatks, that helps us isolate the problem

15:21:12sawyer_iHP_140the thing is - it locks up before I get any sound
15:21:45preglowdoesn't matter, as long as it does so consistently
15:22:22sawyer_iHP_140hmm, you guys are smart! The same file that locked up every time now plays after copying to a new directory. What gives? =]
15:22:41preglowindeed, what gives...
15:22:47preglowsounds like mob bugs, then
15:23:11pondlifeSounds like the playlist is picking up a later file in the same folder and MoB is choking on that file...

15:31:16pondlifesawyer_iHP_140: No, the theory is that one of those files is causing the problem.
15:31:35pondlifeBy making a copy and then deleting it file-by-file, we should be able to work out which one.
15:32:32pondlifeAlternatively, make sure repeat is disabled, then start playback on the last file and see if that works. If so, stop and restart playback on the previous file. Repeat until crash.
15:35:30sawyer_iHP_140OK, but what has been happening is it locks on the first file I play; is that affected by other files in that dir? Also to add trouble, I'm having some CRC errors during copy so it seems I need to attend to the HD status before I suspect anything else...
15:35:38sawyer_iHP_140sorry for any trouble

15:38:41pondlifeBear in mind that we buffer the following files after the one that's playing... so a read error in one of the later ones might kill it.

15:40:46sawyer_iHP140yes, they play OK in the original firmware, although once in a rare while (with orig firmware) my player will either play a snippet of a different song or skip to the next song in the middle of a file.

16:03:19kkurbjunI don't have it connected, I've never tried using gdb with my cable, I think openocd can deal without it, but you can issue a full reset and hold from the begining of the program as far as I know
16:03:40kkurbjunyou should be able to use the builtin CFI driver in openocd
16:04:07 Part LinusN
16:04:10kkurbjunsee if that works, if it doesn't you might need to add another device to allow it to support your flash
16:04:34barrywardellwhat does the patch in the wiki do? Is it necessary?

18:51:16lostlogicn1s: define large and probably, would just need to have a type defining the proper behavior for it
18:52:35lostlogicn1s: the problem would be knowing where to put them so that they aren't in the way.
18:53:00Nico_Plostlogic: we should start experimenting with plugins maybe
18:53:24lostlogicNico_P: for handling what to do when we finish buffering a file?
18:53:26n1slostlogic: a midi file would need a set of patches to be available for as long as it's playing, the largest patch I have is 2.2 MB
18:53:29lostlogicbecause that's what came to my mind
18:54:18 Quit pepie34 ("Ex-Chat")
18:54:20lostlogicn1s: what's involved in generating those? To do it with simple modifications only they would need to be available to the buffering system at roughly the same time that the midi is being buffered
18:54:28Nico_Plostlogic: never though of that... I was thinking of giving plugins access to the buffering API
18:54:32lostlogicn1s: ie would get_metadata be able to tell the system what to stick on?
18:54:40Nico_Pand seeing how existing ones could benefit
18:55:14n1slostlogic: they are just read from disk and possibly byteswapped and yes get_metadata should be able to do it
18:55:15Nico_Plostlogic: for example, the midi player is a plugin AFAIK
18:55:26lostlogicn1s: that would work beautifully then.
18:55:44lostlogicI gotta run to work, but this has definite promise

19:18:56lostlogichmm, the only problem I can see wiht the idea of midi as a codec with its samples on the buffer would be if the midi + samples are larger than the buffer. I think since midi files themselves are small, that's an acceptable situ
19:19:32linuxstbThe patchset is over 20MB - so that rules out a few swcodec targets....
19:19:36preglowlostlogic: the midi itself is tiiiiiiny in comparison
19:19:48preglowi don't see that as a problem at all
19:20:35roolkuvery few midi files will use all of the patches (instruments)
19:21:02roolkuso a lot less than 20Mb is required

19:38:34Nico_Phcs: none. I haven't thought about how to do it better yet :/
19:40:13hcsNico_P: I consider it a two-stage process, to fix.
19:40:16hcs1) fix the seeking issue (rebuffer the file in the space that is already allocated for it? throw out what's in the space where the requested stuff would be?
19:40:43hcs2) implement some way to not dump the buffer for files where we know we'll need it
19:41:05hcsThe first to make it work, the second to make it efficient.
19:41:11lostlogichcs: what happens when an adx is > bufsize?
19:42:42hcsthen we've no choice but to dump it
19:42:45hcspriority: current buffer=2, reserved buffer=1, other tracks=0
19:43:12hcsnot that I have any experience with the buffering code to figure out how to implement it
19:43:16*lostlogic hates special handling for one type of audio.
19:43:41lostlogicADX is like the bastard child of the small atomic codecs and a packet codec
19:44:29hcslostlogic: the second stage is optional, I'd just be happy with it working even if it has the reload the file
19:44:58lostlogichcs: yeah, realistically once 8092 is fixed, it should work again, especially on flash players w/o a spinup
19:45:32lostlogicbut then making it work well remains difficult −− needs some kind of flag that says "don't shrink me unless you strictly must"
19:45:39lostlogicwhich actually wouldn't be unreasonable.
19:45:50lostlogicshould that be a different type or a flag?
19:45:51lostlogichmmmmmmmmmmmmm

19:46:23lostlogic(and yes, I know how childish it is)_
19:46:52hcsI'm just going to go ahead and revert ADX, then, so at least we have something usable for now
19:47:24lostlogichow well does it work? don't you still run into trouble around the buffer wrap?
19:47:38hcsIt works flawlessly, as far as I can tell
19:47:46lostlogichcs: oh, cool −− revert away then :)
19:48:23hcslostlogic: observe the section commented "dance with the devil in the pale moonlight", it's supposed to handle that, but I can't remember exactly why it works

20:22:22lostlogickarashata: at the beginning before even starting to play or smoetmie randomly in the middle?
20:22:24LloreanSince "next" and "previous" in the filetree wouldn't skip tracks, but enter and leave folders.
20:22:32karashataright at the beginning
20:22:35lostlogicLlorean: that's what I was confused about.
20:22:37karashatait doesn't play the file at all
20:22:58karashataloads the metadata fine though for it and the next track on 15493
20:22:59mrkikofs#8003 (still verifying) will crash my player; this problem instead causes the player to act like the last key is being pressed again.
20:23:00lostlogickarashata: but other codecs work? What kind of tags are on your FLACs?
20:23:30karashataI'm not sure, whatever tags Winamp uses to tag FLAC files
20:23:39lostlogicmrkiko: so the problem you are reporting today acts as though you've held the next button down and keeps repeating that action?
20:24:01lostlogickarashata: lemme find a build for you to try.
20:24:06karashataokay
20:25:57lostlogickarashata: can you try 15464 for me? It's possible that stripping leading tag data from the buffer is causing your trouble.
20:25:59mrkikolostlogic: yes

21:06:25pixelmaakuma: in general, I mean. I use my own theme...
21:07:37mrkikoLlorean: .. ehm... the problem basically (at least for H340) is that to reset you need something very very very fine
21:08:13Domonokyakuma: you could try holding the "power on" button (i think its play on h3x0) for about 15sec, for many crashes this works to shutdown.. :-)
21:09:46akumaah...fixed it by re installing rockbox....
21:09:54Lloreanmrkiko: I know. It's unfortunate. But it's just not a "button" like the other ones, so you can't even reprogram another easier to use button to do the same thing or anything. It's one of those things we just can't really fix.

21:36:53handmademattersMaybe another stupid question: it seems that i cant get the adc values read out of the plugin section? Any advice? And yes i know how to register it (plugin.c plugin.h) :)
21:37:39ruinedtwice...it's useful to be reminded that rockbox is meant to support "any size" of video file. That encouraging. I'd still like to know the syntax to make winff produce files split to order. I guess it's my narcissism showing.

21:38:21bertriksmoothing code?
21:38:40Lloreanruinedtwice: Well, considering the fact that nobody here wrote WinFF, perhaps you should seek questions that aren't actually related specifically to Rockbox to the creators of that software instead...
21:38:40handmademattersH10 got jumpy values
21:38:42lostlogichandmadematters: you would need to add a pointer in plugin.h and an assignment to a function in plugin.c

21:38:52handmademattersdid that
21:39:05handmademattersreads the very first value then it stops
21:39:07tokam_onethe java guys (like me) will start to develope programms and games for rockbox

21:39:18lostlogichandmadematters: stops or keepds getting same values?

21:42:37Lloreantokam_one: A wide, wide range of supported formats, parametric equalizer, gapless playback, dithering, replaygain, crossfeed, crossfade, advanced on-player playlisting and database management, themeability, just to name a few features.
21:42:50tokam_oneLlorean: i think that rockbox is better, but is only because it can do more
21:43:01tokam_oneif it could just do the same like others it would not be
21:43:19tokam_one+it
21:43:22Lloreantokam_one: Yes, but you can do "more" while still focusing on music and media related features.
21:43:50tokam_oneLlorean: you can do more with a lot of things....
21:43:51Lloreanlostlogic: My understanding is that the Phone Edition VM would be within the limits of our players.

21:44:01Lloreantokam_one: Yes, but as I said, it's not a focus of the project.
21:44:04tokam_oneLlorean: many users know how to convert formats ..
21:44:12LloreanConverting formats degrades quality.
21:44:17LloreanThis is obvious...
21:44:27tokam_oneLlorean: do you think, that rockbox will oneday be able to play wma without coprocessor?
21:44:34LloreanIt already can
21:44:37BigBambitokam_one: It does
21:44:39tokam_oneiT CAN?
21:44:41LloreanYes
21:44:46tokam_onei will do an update now :D
21:44:47*Domonoky thinks rockbox would happily accept a java vm if someone wrote one for rockbox... but someone has to volunteer... :-)
21:44:48LloreanSeriously, learn about the program before commenting on it, please.
21:44:52tokam_oneeven on ipod 5?
21:44:54LloreanYes
21:45:01tokam_onesince when?
21:45:03linuxstbIt always has done - what made you think it didn't?
21:45:04BigBambitokam_one: Apart from the portalplayers, what about all the single core daps we have?
21:45:15LloreanDomonoky: I'm quite sure it would. All I ever said was that "attracting plugin developers is not an incentive for Rockbox core devs to spend resources on it"
21:45:22ruinedtwicelinuxstb: yes −− and I suspect that it "should" do the trick. I'm embarrassed to confess that I haven't yet guessed the required syntax for that option: "-fs 50", or "-fs 50m", or "-fs 50mb", or "-fs 50 mb", and so on. None of my attempts so far have produced anything other than abort upon execution. So sad. I need to get this little tweak working to make the sky stop looking like a Munch etching.
21:45:32Lloreantokam_one: Since inclusion of WMA support, it's always run on one core.
21:45:48tokam_oneok, i will look after it now
21:46:00DomonokyLlorean: true, but we dont have any ressources to distripute.. its all volunteer.. :-)
21:46:01Lloreanruinedtwice: It's in bytes, so -fs 50000 would be 50000 bytes.
21:46:15ruinedtwiceexcellent
21:46:29tokam_oneflv format would be nice
21:46:32tokam_oneflash video
21:46:39BigBambitokam_one: Then get coding....
21:46:40Lloreanruinedtwice: You can add units though. But it doesn't split for you, so you'd need to know how long the file is in time, and convert a second time, with the time offset starting at that time to make a second 50mb file, and it might be imperfect for overlap
21:47:07Lloreantokam_one: Considering the necessity to resize for the iPods screen anyway, while converting audio is a no-do, converting video is essentially a necessity anyway...
21:47:17bertrikmmm, I even get crackle from SVN 15000... :(
21:47:26tokam_one^^ Llorean, ok
21:47:34tokam_oneLlorean: it suxx :) hehe :D
21:47:59tokam_oneLlorean: an encoding software inside rockbox would be too slow would it?
21:48:09LloreanThese players are very, very slow.
21:48:10LloreanSo yes.
21:48:59tokam_oneLlorean: have you developed for the rockbox project?
21:49:08LloreanYes

22:02:51tokam_onei think it is a nice idea, but with c i am not good enaugh to write an implementation
22:03:46scorche|wthen sit back and wait for someone else to if it happens at all
22:03:56BigBambitokam_one: I think it unlikely, but should someone write one I'm sure it shall be considered
22:04:12BigBambiHowever, I do not think any of the core devs will be jumping on this one
22:05:22LloreanI think there was someone trying to drum up interest in a JAVA forum, but again, it was full of people saying "Someone ought to make this" rather than people saying "I'm willing to make this" or trying to get work done.
22:06:06tokam_oneand nobody was able to manage it?
22:06:21BigBambitokam_one: More like nobody bothered
22:06:39tokam_oneBigBambi: do you mean with your second post, that nobody whant to switch his project and change work form rockbox core development to j2me development
22:06:43hcsI'm in the planning stages of implementing a different virtual machine, but that's another issue entirely...
22:06:45pixelmaBuschel: check last weeks log for w1lliam (or similar)
22:07:01BigBambiIt is all very well saying, someone should do this, wouldn't it be great etc., but until someone who wants it writes it it won't happen
22:07:08tokam_oneBigBambi: nobody bothered without java?
22:07:24BigBambitokam_one: That none of the core devs could give two hoots about java on rockbox
22:07:30Domonokytokam_one: people develop only what they want to develop.. so if noone has interesst..
22:07:45BigBambitokam_one: No, no one bothered to write a java interpreter for rockbox

22:37:08Nico_Pjava on rockbox sounds like pretty unlikeliy
22:37:21Nico_Pand a bit useless too
22:37:35scorche|wand hcs said nothing about java
22:37:46tokam_onehe did
22:37:54tokam_onescorche isn't it faster
22:37:57Bagderthat java crap pops up every once in a while
22:38:00Bagderit'll die again
22:38:11tokam_onescorche but the batteriy will lowered down faster will it?
22:38:23scorche|wtokam_one yes...why would you want to run it faster?
22:38:43tokam_onescorche fast is nice, but batterie is more important i guess
22:38:45tokam_one:)
22:38:50scorche|wand no he didnt...he was talking about something different than java
22:38:53tokam_oneBagder: I hope not so
22:38:59scorche|wbut why would being fast be nice?
22:39:06Lloreanscorche|w, tokam_one: There's no real harm in changing the "boosted" speed as long as the unboosted speed stays the same, as long as boosted is within spec, I think
22:39:06scorche|wwhy would you need it faster for?
22:39:22Lloreani mean, you draw more power, but at less time, and iiuc the ratios work out so that it should be the same net power draw, roughly
22:39:28scorche|wLlorean: i am trying to get him to tell me his reasoning of why he wants it faster
22:39:35scorche|wyou dont need to reference me ;)
22:39:43LloreanIt _could_ help with APE.

22:40:20tokam_oneBigBambi: you want to know why i need java?

22:40:49BigBambitokam_one: I was just making an unfunny joke
22:41:05BigBambiAbout java needing speed
22:41:14LloreanBut really, we don't need to go faster unless we're fixing a problem with it at this point, since we have to optimize everything for the 80mhz iPods either way.
22:41:14tokam_onescorche|w: it is what Llorean mentioned
22:41:31tokam_onebut the fast lowered power is the bad aspect of it
22:41:46*Llorean just said it shouldn't increase power consumption
22:42:11 Quit Dark_Apostrophe (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
22:42:12LloreanNow the crazy thing some people have done where they increased their unboosted speed to 60mhz (I will never understand that, it really baffles me) will destroy what minimal battery life we already have on the iPods.
22:42:31tokam_oneLlorean: why not, if my notebook runns on 2x2ghz it is warm fast, on 2x800mhz not
22:42:47Lloreantokam_one: Rockbox runs by boosting when it needs to
22:43:07LloreanIt would be like your laptop running at 800mhz most of the time, and changing to 2000 to catch up if it's not far enough ahead any more
22:43:22LloreanIf it went to 1500 to catch up instead of 2000, it'd use less power when at 1500 but have to be there longer so it doesn't really gain anything.
22:43:58tokam_oneok
22:44:26tokam_onebut to give rockbox the possibility to go up to 100 i have to enable it?
22:44:47LloreanThere's not a good reason to.

23:42:17LloreanStrange, there used to be such crackling back with older builds
23:42:42LloreanBut assuming you're using a current build and not raising the volume above 0, and none of your DSP settings are enabled, it shouldn't happen.
23:43:00bertrikit only happens on certain mp3s, but those mp3s sound fine in the sim, and it also happens at low volume
23:44:11LloreanI'm assuming you're using an official SVN revision and bootloader?
23:44:53bertrikyes, the firmware is SVN but the bootloader is an older version
23:45:10LloreanHow old?
23:45:22bertrik3 weeks or so
23:45:36LloreanThat shouldn't be a problem.
23:46:00bertrikmy build was done on cygwin though, not with the officially approved compiler, so I'll try that next
