#rockbox log for 2008-01-25

00:00:05stripwaxtoens - you use the apple os often also?
00:01:16CasainhoBagder: I read that It boots from NAND, serail data flash, USB and serial... but, assuming that it boots from NAND, can i write a #1 bootloader to after mount a FAT32 on the rest of the NAND flash? - what do you thing of this idea?
00:02:12stripwaxnot too sure what stereo width > 100 means, however..
00:02:34BagderCasainho: sounds like a working approach
00:03:01BagderCasainho: but are you then adding a "fixed" nand flash to the player?
00:03:19Bagderor are you only talking dev board here
00:03:23Casainhothe dev board have NAND flash, serial data flash, USB, serial port... but I would like to write a bootloader thinking in that "simple hardware player", simple meaning with less IC's as possible :-)
00:03:36Bagderyes
00:03:41Bagderand does that mean nand?
00:04:00pixelmaPaulPosition: stereo width is also something the hwcodec Archoses can do, in contrast to crossfeed (I'm also not sure of the details)
00:04:09Bagderbecause I don't understand why you would work on _different_ boot methods on the dev board compared to the planned player
00:04:34PaulPositionstripwax - Good thinking, more than 100 sounds weird if there's no delay introduced :p
00:04:36Casainhowell, a player with 8 MB of fixed memory, for have rockbox on there, and after have an SD card port, for memory to audio files, etc...
00:05:26stripwaxgnight all

00:06:03CasainhoI thinking as you, try to work as possible next to the planned player :-)
00:06:32Casainhobut I am discovering, I don't know, It's my first time... :-)
00:07:06 Quit styleism ()
00:08:07Casainhoyou already give the idea of put a bootloader on different memory from NAND flash, and have NAND flash for FAT32... - but I would like to know if would be possible to use just the NAND flash IC...
00:08:24BagderI already gave you that idea too
00:08:57Bagdera flash is just memory
00:09:02Bagderyou can use it however you like
00:09:07scorche|wCasainho: like i said...just worry about the first one...you will learn a lot of things you will need to do differently on the second, but dont worry about the second till the time is right
00:10:15Casainhoah, okok :-) - so, Its possible :-) - because now I will focus on that idea of use just the NAND flash... thats important because I must know what I will use of the dev board and also to not disperse on information :-)
00:10:44Bagderbut again...
00:10:50Bagderare you then adding a "fixed" nand flash to the player?
00:11:31Casainhoscorche|w: but I think that the first step, or the next, is to write the bootloader, and I must know what memories I will use to that, and I must understand the boot process...
00:12:15 Quit micr0c0sm (Read error: 113 (No route to host))
00:12:20CasainhoBagder: I don't understand your question :-) - I would like to have "fixed" flash memory in player just to hold the RB, maybe just 8MB

00:12:45CasainhoI did answer for what I understand.. I don't know if right
00:12:49BagderCasainho: yes, but not an 8mb NAND?
00:13:07BagderI thought you had a serial NOR flash
00:13:20Casainhooh men, I am confused!! :-)
00:13:57CasainhoBagder: please stop! don't tell me that I am mistake :-) :-)
00:14:25Casainhoscorche|w: okok
00:14:33BagderI promise to stop now, I'm off to bed... ;-)
00:14:51CasainhoBagder: it says: "512MB NAND Flash (seen in Linux as silicon drive)"
00:15:10Bagdersigh
00:15:14Bagderthat's the DEV BOARD
00:15:20Bagdernot your planned player, right?
00:15:36Bagderor am I wrong?
00:15:53Casainhomore or less, I don't really know... :-)
00:16:12CasainhoI know that it have much more than that planned player needs...
00:16:17BagderI thought you'd use the dev board to develop the stuff that would run on the rockboxplayerv1 hw

01:21:39Nico_PjhMikeS: something I just thought about regarding the playback glitching problem... in boost_codec_thread the codec thread prio is set to realtime. Doesn't that almost surely cause the buffering thread to starve and therefor the codec thread itself too?
01:22:41Nico_PSome time ago I tried raising the buffering thread prio to realtime in there too, but I think that maybe neither should be set to realtime
01:23:30jhMikeSNico_P: any two threads at the same priority will both be scheduled round-robin
01:23:46Nico_Pah
01:24:04jhMikeSbarring any removal from the run list of course which can change the order (waits, etc.)
01:24:16Nico_Pwell that patch didn't seem to improve things so I guess my theory is rubbish :(
01:25:16jhMikeSdid you try priority_yield instead of yield in buffering.c? That will ensure execution once per round regarless of base priority
01:25:27Nico_Pah, no
01:25:33Nico_Pdidn't know about it
01:26:17Nico_PI can't try myself though... have you ever experienced these issues yourself?

01:35:58Nico_Preally? I thought it was meant for POSIX systems... on cygwin maybe?
01:35:59jhMikeSI'm having trouble using the installer. I got the bootloader to start but only if not join with mknkboot

01:39:57jhMikeSnot yet. I needed to hack on Visual Studio Express to be able to build libs first. building all that is the next project in line.
01:40:15Nico_Pgood to hear :)
01:40:32Nico_PI sent ptw419 another mail in case he didn't get the first
01:40:58XavierGrI tried the other day to send code to my Gigabeat S, all things went wrong
01:41:13Nico_Phow so?
01:41:14XavierGrfirst I couldn't make WMP and windows to recognize my S
01:41:29XavierGrthen I restored it removing the rockbox bootloader
01:41:42XavierGrbut I couldn't do it with my machine because the updater crashed all the time
01:41:54XavierGrfinally I managed to write the rockbox bootloader again with sendfirm
01:42:00 Join m0f0x [0] (n=m0f0x@189-47-26-251.dsl.telesp.net.br)
01:42:25XavierGrbut now I can't sent the rockbox firmware into the S because my vmware got borked and can't compile rockbox
01:42:44XavierGrall things went wrong at the same time!
01:42:47Nico_Pyou can use senfirm within vmware?
01:43:00XavierGrnope, dind't worked the first time that I tried that
01:43:07XavierGrinstead I booted kubuntu
01:43:10Nico_Pok
01:43:46XavierGrmy main problem now is to get back my development platform and then restore MTP drivers for windows/wmp
01:43:58 Quit JdGordon|w ("CGI:IRC")
01:44:05XavierGrthe strange thing is that all these worked quite fine for me in the past
01:44:07Nico_PjhMikeS: sendfirm is heavily based on libmtp's example/mtp-sendfile, so the code should be portable to windows quite easily
01:44:38Nico_PXavierGr: I'm afraid I can't be of much help... all I've ever used my S with is linux
01:44:51jhMikeSNico_P: It requires libusb and others to be built as well
01:44:53XavierGralso I am quite sure that once the rockbox bootloader is flashed you can pass the firmware with just the MTP explorer

01:48:29 Quit karashata (" HydraIRC -> http://www.hydrairc.com <- Like it? Visit #hydrairc on EFNet")
01:48:31XavierGrI was thinking that it could be replicated in the firmware, because even with the current bootloader the firmware is loaded and crashes after the bootloader ended
01:49:07XavierGrI can't imagine having to flash all the time the unit with a new bootloader
01:50:12Nico_Pwell rockbox's bootloader is actually in a firmware file... the real bootloader is eboot.bin
01:50:42Nico_Pso you needn't reflash everytime... sendfirm doesn't flash anything
01:50:51jhMikeSNico_P: one thing I want to avoid is having to distribute anything with dlls. I think it can just be one console app.
01:51:07Nico_PjhMikeS: yes, that would be nice

04:47:29javiskYeah unicode and 6+12x3 support Korean
04:48:03javiskfrom the rockbox-fonts.zip
04:48:30javiskbut that is only two choices, and at one size for each
04:49:28 Quit m0f0x (Connection timed out)
04:51:16javiskalso there is no choice between monospace and proportional

04:51:43javiskthere are atleast two more major types of korean typeface
04:51:51javiskthat would be nice to see
04:52:12javiskmaybe I could convert from a ttf font to the format RB uses?
04:52:14TiMiD[FD]would be nice to have more unicode fonts
04:52:45TiMiD[FD]I suppose it's not very difficult to convert a computer font to the rockbox format
04:52:46Soapmake some.
04:52:54Soapnope - tools are provided.
04:52:57TiMiD[FD]the problem is with the licence
04:53:08SoapHard part is finding a "pretty" unicode font which is opensource.
04:53:10Soapyeah
04:53:16javiskno problem with license if I use it myself, though
04:53:23TiMiD[FD]ms arial unicode is almost perfect
04:53:50javiskI'm not a fan of it's latin portion though

05:00:44TiMiD[FD]javisk: so I suppose that you first have to convert the font you want to the bdf format and then use convbdf to make a .fnt
05:00:53TiMiD[FD]yes
05:01:26TiMiD[FD]or maybe more, I don't know if there are tools to convert directly from ttf to bdf

12:24:39GodEaterthe only usb code in rockbox currently for the ipods detects the connection and restarts the ipod in apple's disk mode
12:24:49toensexcuse my ignorance, haven't been here in a while, but i'm sure i recall plugging into USB while rockbox was loaded and it recognised the drive?
12:25:04GodEater"it" being ?
12:25:10toenswindows
12:25:23GodEateryes, because rockbox reboots the ipod into apple's emergency disk mode
12:25:31cool_walking_Hasn't it stopped rebooting into Disk Mode, in favour of sitting there charging?
12:25:32phunnithat's not happening under windows for me - but under linux it appears as a device under /dev which can then be mounted...
12:25:38DomonokyGodEater: there is a usb stack in rockbox, but it just requests high power, no ums mode
12:25:54GodEaterDomonoky: I'm aware of this, but UMS is what's under discussion
12:26:01GodEaterphunni: see above
12:26:13GodEaterthere is *no* UMS code in rockbox
12:26:31GodEatercool_walking_: it's got flakey under windows apparently - we don't know why - it works for me
12:26:41Nico_PGodEater: hi! I've talked about the playback skipping issues with jhMikeS and he suggested something... do you think you could try it?
12:26:51GodEatercool_walking_: there is no "in favour of charging" behaviour without holding menu when you plug in the cable
12:26:56GodEaterNico_P: sure
12:27:07*GodEater git svn rebases
12:27:46Nico_PGodEater: it's quite simple: using priority_yield instead of yield in buffering.c
12:27:56GodEaterare there lots of calls to change ?
12:27:59Nico_P(there's only one yield() call)
12:27:59GodEateror just one or two ?

12:56:08Nico_Pthat could be the playback thread not giving the buffering code tracks to buffer fast enough...
12:56:30*GodEater starts a new playlist
12:56:31Nico_Pwhat I don't understand is that data_rem = 0 would indicate buffering is finished for the track

14:00:19RhinoBwith that fix I no longer get crashes when trying to read MP3s with large tags

15:01:57preglowyeah, know
15:01:59DerPapstosos is the firmare
15:02:31preglowaupd is the flash updater, i guess
15:02:34*GodEater wonders what preglow is planning to do with them
15:02:37DerPapstyes
15:02:39preglowdisassemble
15:02:51preglowi want to disassemble the bl and retailos to find out what they do to the pcf

15:03:34DerPapstrsrc is the resource thingy. nike+ipod for nanos and some kind of drivers for the boradcom chip (iirc) on ipod videos.
15:03:37preglowindeed, and then i went ahead and erased my whole home directory
15:03:49preglowlike a fool, i might add
15:03:58DerPapstheh
15:04:01linuxstbYes, on the ipod videos, the RSRC is the firmware that runs on the broadcom chip.
15:04:01preglowlinuxstb: but at least now i know what to look for

15:04:35linuxstb(there's also a broadcom firmware image in flash, which presumably the bootloader uploads to the broadcom).
15:04:48preglowindeed
15:06:02preglowdoesn't seem like any of them are fat images, though, at least i can't mount them

15:11:36preglowbut ok, what's the format of the headers on these things? i want retailos
15:11:46linuxstbHow did you extract them?
15:12:02preglowunzipped what i got from apple, then ipod_fw
15:12:04linuxstbI think ipod_fw puts a 512-byte header on the files.
15:12:14preglowlet's see

15:18:47linuxstbYes, it does.
15:18:55preglowanything fancy?
15:19:03linuxstbloader2 handles it - so see its source code

15:55:30kkurbjunmarkun, I was looking at the gigabeat clocking some more and it looks like we should just be able to set a bit in the CAMDIVN register to enter a lower power mode by running the clock at 100 MHz - from the DC characteristics it seems that the SOC lowers the core voltage
15:55:40kkurbjunwhen the DVS bit is set
15:56:46kkurbjunI don't think that just modifying the PLL frequencies will save too much power - the consumption is about linear unless you are changing the core voltage, and witht he gigabeat when it's idle the core clock is cut anyway
15:57:41kkurbjunI'm planning on messing around with it some more eventually, but if you have some other feedback I would be interested
15:58:42markunkkurbjun: I have to leave now, but nice that you are giving it a try again
15:58:53kkurbjunThe DVS bit at the very least sets the core to run at ~100 MHz by putting the CPU on the same bus as the periphrials
15:59:09markunI already get quite a nice runtime with my 1000mAh battery, but more is welcome :)

16:02:21XavierGrare you? just great :)
16:03:03markunkkurbjun: btw, there is one more bug which would be nice to look at:
16:03:05kkurbjunlike I said the hardware debugging with GDB makes it much nicer - before I had openocd's console which let me recover the flash, but now I can upload new code without ever touching usb or disconnecing anything
16:03:11kkurbjunthe bootloader usb mode
16:03:22kkurbjunmy JTAG gigabeat shows that problem
16:03:31kkurbjunso I plan on looking at that as well

17:40:27Llorean:-P
17:40:38*kugel loves scroll wheels

17:41:33*n1s also can't type simelys correctly
17:41:35LloreanThey take up a ridiculous amount of physical space for very limited input options, and you have to move your finger continually to scroll. Just seems a step backward to me.
17:41:53rasherLlorean: you get accelleration though
17:41:56LloreanI mean, what do they offer other than "being stylish right now"?
17:42:22preglowanother way of navigating some people do prefer?
17:42:44kugelLlorean: Scrolling through a (long) list is much easier with a wheel
17:42:45linuxstbrasher: You get accelleration with normal buttons...
17:42:45LloreanI meant "why do people prefer them"? Like, what about them besides stylishness makes them preferable to buttons?
17:42:55preglowi think wheels are nice enough, but i tend to like buttons somewhat better for their speed of use
17:43:08Lloreankugel: This is not true. Both a wheel and buttons can have both fine and fast scrolling.
17:43:09kugelit's much precise too
17:43:23preglowLlorean: acceleration works better with wheels, there's no way around that
17:43:34preglowit's much faster while still being managable
17:43:42Lloreanpreglow: Don't know if I'd agree with that. Paged scrolling with buttons still works better for me.
17:43:48LloreanYou need a "modifier" button, but that's still minimal.
17:43:54preglowquite simply because they're more analogue than buttons
17:44:12preglowminimal? it requires an additional hand
17:44:15preglowhardly what i'd call minimal
17:44:22kugelyea
17:44:36LloreanRequires an additional finger.
17:45:10preglowsometimes, perhaps
17:45:11rasherlinuxstb: you don't get "direct" acelleration though.. just "magic"
17:45:22LloreanI'll give you that a wheel might offer more control over fine grained acceleration rate, but I won't give you that it's "better"
17:45:25preglowwouldn't work very nicely on my h120
17:45:41preglow"more control" isn't "better", somehow?
17:45:43LloreanWe're not talking about a specific player though, but in terms of creating a hypothetical ideal.
17:45:53Lloreanpreglow: More control over fine grained.
17:46:12kugelLlorean: In most cases you are using a player with only 1 thumb. I doubt it's easy to navigate with the thumb while holding another button with a finger of the same hand
17:46:15LloreanI'd rather simply hold down a finger and quickly scroll through a very long list than have to continually move my finger at a set minimum speed to get the same rate of motion
17:46:28kugelsince all the other fingers are usually needed to hold the player
17:46:34preglowreally, for that to work with a single hand, they'd have to put buttons on the back of the device, the way i hold it
17:46:40Lloreankugel: yes, and if buttons are on the side or in locations those fingers are near....
17:47:11preglowon the side would not work for me unless the player is small
17:47:18 Join mf0102 [0] (n=michi@85.127.20.163)
17:47:49preglowguess i've got somewhere around middle-sized fingers
17:47:51LloreanYou could also make the modifier near enough that both can be done with one finger.
17:47:55LloreanLike menu and select on an ipod
17:47:58kugelLlorean: which would probably mean the player is disigned for right/left handed only
17:48:11kugeldesigned*
17:48:14Lloreankugel: Nearly all players are designed with a marked preference for righties.
17:48:31LloreanI challenge you to name how many Rockboxable players, for example, are symmetrical.
17:48:40preglowipods :)
17:48:42kugelI don't think Casainho aims for repeating this failure
17:48:50preglowthe wheel works great with the left hand as well
17:48:50Lloreanpreglow: Exactly. :)
17:48:56preglowanother positive aspect of it
17:49:04LambdaCalculus37Sansas.
17:49:05LloreanUp/down buttons aren't exactly hand-centric.
17:49:09LloreanLambdaCalculus37: Wrong
17:49:15LloreanPower button and Record button.
17:49:20LambdaCalculus37Forgot!
17:49:23LloreanIt really is just the iPod afaik.
17:49:35preglowreally, now, i prefer buttons, but i can see why some would like the wheel better
17:49:40pixelmaLlorean: just curious - how do you operate your c200?
17:49:43LloreanBut my point was just that "wheels are better" is very much a matter of opinion.
17:49:57LloreanI'm not saying wheels are bad, just honestly wanted to know why besides "style" they prefer them.
17:50:05preglowLlorean: if that's your point i agree :)
17:50:10kugelLlorean: ease of use
17:50:11preglowi should stop jumping in in the middle of discussions
17:50:43Lloreankugel: "ease of use" is not an objective term. I was looking for objective specifics. I find buttons MUCH easier, because I have long lists and don't like to spend hours circling my thumb on a wheel far too small to be comfortable.
17:50:46kugelI think wheels are easy to use, intuitive (in most contexts), effective
17:50:49XavierGrscroll wheels are indeed better at accelerating, though this is their only advantage
17:51:02XavierGrtactile buttons are better because they offer more for their size
17:51:03LloreanWheels very much favor hands near the right size for them.
17:51:10preglowLlorean: tried it on an ipod? list scrolling is really sweet here
17:51:14pregloweven with huge lists
17:51:20Lloreanpreglow: I've got a Nano, yes.
17:51:28kugelLlorean: Hours of circling? Not with acceleration, you can scroll the whole list within 10ms
17:51:32LloreanBut it's the "keep your hand moving over X-hundred entries"
17:51:48XavierGrpreglow: I found that a scroll wheel can be quite tricky to get it on a certain file I want to choose
17:52:01Lloreankugel: Hours meaning "if I'm operating my device over a long period"
17:52:05preglowyup, they are, but the speed in getting to the area of the file you want makes up for it
17:52:27Lloreanpreglow: See, paged scrolling on the H120 worked great for me for that. My index finger on my left hand rests on it when holding my DAP anyway.
17:52:28preglowi'd rather use a quick and inaccurate process that's interactive than a slow and accurate one that isn't
17:52:34preglowkeeping a button pressed isn't much fun in the long run...
17:52:48kugelAnd how long would you need to press a button to scroll through a long list? Even with page scroll and a modifier button this takes a bigger amount of time
17:52:55Lloreankugel: No, it doesn't.

17:53:44kugelWell, I tend to love the scroll wheel of my e200 with scroll acceleration

17:54:12preglowbut that's me
17:54:36XavierGryeah of course different tastes for different usage patters
17:54:38LloreanBut anyway, nonphysical wheels (like the iPod ones) don't provide good feedback for blind users. Physically scrolling ones, like the Sansa, are a bit "huge" =/
17:54:47LloreanFor a custom player, I'd really stick to buttons.
17:54:47kugelXavierGr: Is it really about the energy one needs to scroll through lists?
17:55:04XavierGrbut as Llorean said: too much wasted space. That's why ipods have a problem with keymaps
17:55:07preglowLlorean: yeah, i'm still annoyed we don't have piezo clicking like retailos does, that makes the whole tactile thing better
17:55:18Lloreankugel: Ergonomics. Fitting the thumb at an angle that it can make comfortable loops, etc.
17:55:19XavierGrkugel: it's about all aspects of it
17:55:35kugelXavierGr: e200 doesn't have problems
17:55:45XavierGrkugel: as I said scroll wheels are good for acceleration, bad for picking a certain file and bad for their size
17:56:02Lloreankugel: As I said, a wheel depends on specific hand size. And the e200 has two extra buttons, and most people seem to think the four buttons around the wheel are bad anyway, hard to touch with big fingers.
17:56:07kugelbad for picking a certain file? I can't agree to that
17:56:12LloreanThe e200 sacrificed a lot to have that wheel.
17:56:19LambdaCalculus37I do find the scroll wheels on iPods annoying for the reasons XavierGr just mentioned.
17:56:57kugelwell, nice discussion though. I'm off now
17:56:58XavierGrkugel: might be that I am not used to it, but I had troubles picking the correct file, because as soon as I was near it, I had to be very carefull with my finger movement to not pass it
17:57:13kugelXavierGr: I didn't have problems, ever
17:57:21LloreanXavierGr: The e200 has a mechanical wheel. It stops on entries, kinda on its own.
17:57:28XavierGrah that must be it then
17:57:32kugelcan be the reason, yea
17:57:40LloreanBut it's still possible to make it skip entries, it's not as precise as kugel makes it sound.

18:52:48LloreanGotcha
18:54:06bertrikmarkun: I don't know which table you're talking about, but in general it's a good idea to limit the scope of data and functions. So if the table is declared within the scope of a file, making it static would be good I think.
18:55:54markunbertrik: just static is ok? or do I need to mark is const as well?
18:55:56bertrikmaking the table const could save some ram, but can only be don't if its contents are never modified
18:56:05markunyes, it's never modified
18:56:09n1sconst != static
18:56:42n1siow it should be static const
18:57:48markunok, it will be in the next commit
18:58:25markunwhat be the difference between a static and a non-static table?
18:58:48n1sstatic is only visible inside the same file
18:58:50bertriknon-static is global
18:59:44bertrikbut generally, the meaning of static in C depends on the scope (file, function, etc.)

19:40:49amiconnjhMikeS: Iirc a major part of the problem to get the H10 radio up and running was that the H10 has no SCL pullup
19:40:56 Join XavierGr [0] (n=xavier@rockbox/staff/XavierGr)
19:41:02amiconnThe SDA pullup is there, and the svn driver already exploits that fact
19:41:20jhMikeSamiconn: odd, since it works on mine
19:42:28amiconnI'm not sure whether a small or big H10 was used for that, but even if only a fraction of H10s doesn't have the SCL pullup the driver needs to work like it does
19:44:09jhMikeSyou really think they'd vary on that minor detail? is there a record of who was in need of SCL pullup as output?
19:44:31amiconnShould be in the irc logs somewhere
19:44:58amiconnThere are many examples of where target hardware varies between revisions
19:49:10jhMikeSthat question is why it's not committed but it seems like a very strange thing to revise at that. I suppose if retailos always drives SCL as output then that's an indicator. No big deal to just stick with it as is.

20:03:08*amiconn wonders what problem jhMikeS is trying to solve...
20:03:43pixelmathere were several reports (in the tracker too) about the radio not working (properly) on the 20GB H10s
20:03:45jhMikeSThe radio doesn't work at 80MHz on big H10.
20:03:46bertrikis there actually an i2c device on the bus that does clock stretching?
20:04:05jhMikeSsome extra DELAY; placement fixes it entirely
20:04:23amiconnbertrik: The TEA5767 definitely does clock stretching
20:04:31jhMikeSI think some transitions happen too quickly
20:04:53amiconnLinusN tested it (on H1x0 iirc; same radio chip) using a logic analyser
20:05:05preglowBuschel: hi, tried your pcf stuff for nano
20:05:15Buschelpreglow: any results?
20:05:34preglowsome different voltages, otherwise most are the same
20:05:41preglowonly one i could disable was dcdc2
20:06:18amiconnAnd the 'bus' only consists of 2 devices. Seems like the iriver engineers didn't know i2c is a bus; they usually put each device on its own bus... (applies at least to H1x0, H300 and H10)
20:06:20Buschelthat's the alternative voltage for dcdc −− it can be switched between dcdc1 and 2
20:06:21preglowbut i guess disabling ports with nothing connected anyway doesn't save too much power
20:06:44Buschelyou could not match to DAC or LCD?
20:07:25preglowhmm?
20:07:42BuschelDCDC1 seems to be CPU. it can be lowered to 1.125V (tested at least for 10min, will run an obernight test)
20:07:56amiconnjhMikeS: It may be that the (more or less generic) bit banging i2c code still misses a few delays; I *think* restarts aren't handled properly
20:08:24amiconnI will probably take another look into this. PCF is also bit banged in H300 and iaudios
20:08:39Buschelpreglow: D1REGC is WM-codec, D3REGC seems to be LCD. I am not sure what DCUDC1 is... can be lowered to 1.5V though
20:09:12Buschelok, promised my wife to finish for a while −− will be back later :)
20:09:57amiconnThe problem with these voltage changes is that they aren't committable unless someone finds a datasheet and verifies those voltages are within specs
20:10:45amiconnIf we're not in specs, there will be for sure a small fraction of devices which won't work with the modified voltages
20:10:51preglow1.125 does not work here
20:10:59preglowi'm not a big fan of voltage changes myself
20:11:17preglowif we find that the bootloader sets it too high compared to the datasheet, then sure
20:11:20jhMikeSit seems like SDA gets switched before it can latch the bit in fmradio_i2c_outb

21:52:45austrian_coderHello? Anybody here who can help with a (quite simple) coding problem?
21:52:56peturheya!
21:53:41austrian_coderHi!
21:54:10austrian_coderI wrote a little plugin that displays the unsynced, embedded lyrics from a mp3 file
21:55:10austrian_coderBut I can't test it because it does not show up in the "plugins" dialog in the simulator, although I added it in the SOURCES and the CATEGORIES file
21:55:53peturfor the correct target(s) I assume
21:56:46austrian_coderIn the SOURCES I added in under "/* plugins common to all models */"
21:57:38austrian_coderand in CATEGORIES as "lyric_viewer,demos
21:58:35austrian_coderthe file is called "lyric_viewer.c" and placed in apps/plugins/...
