00:01:29rasherDoes anyone see why we're still shipping profont? The license (which we include) says "You may redistribute unmodified copies of ProFont Distriubtion"
00:01:48rasherI don't believe shipping it as .bdf counts as unmodified.
00:03:06scorche|shrasher: hrm...i am trying to remember exactly how we counted it, i think lostlogic might remember...
00:03:08linuxstbAnd we're also not distributing "ProFont Distribution" - which is defined as 7 different things...
00:03:51rasherFWIW Bagder seems to agree http://www.rockbox.org/irc/log-20070617#23:30:28
00:04:03LloreanThe original font is "Freeware"
00:04:20LloreanThey do state their intent is to have profont distributed "as widely as possible", but apparently only as that specific package.
00:07:18amiconnsaratoga: That patch is nasty as-is
00:07:52amiconnIn pcf50605.c, it disables voltage setup for all targets, and only implements it for ipod video
00:08:23amiconn-> all other PCF PP targets no longer get those voltages set up

00:09:25saratogaamiconn: could you post that in the FS thread so taht buschel sees it?
00:09:30amiconnAnd why it switches off the dock connector voltage even on G5 is beyond me. I'd expect reports about non-working accessories from this
00:09:45Lloreanrasher: Sadly, the maintainer email in the license doesn't work. =/

01:31:25gevaertsActually, I did try high speed again earlier today (it still doesn't work), and then I got the USB screen when I plugged in.
01:31:38BigBambiOne or the other :)
01:32:44rashercrzyboyster: Also, there's little need for such a big screenshot.. and using standard wiki syntax for the tables would be preferable

05:43:06 Join FOAD_ [0] (n=dok@dinah.blub.net)
05:45:51Buschelah, hi :)
05:45:57Buschelyes, it still uses 24MHz
05:46:10Buscheljust reading your reply
05:47:04saratogayou'll have to go through amiconn and the other ipod developers to get the 24MHz core clock change committed
05:47:13saratogabut i can commit the device disable changes sooner
05:47:52saratogatheres actually a long history of people arguing over what the core clock speed should be
05:48:14Buscheli had this discussion with them a few weeks ago :)
05:48:20saratogafor a while, people wanted to increase the boosted speed to improve performance, and there were some bitter arguments on filespray about it
05:48:47saratogaso people will be cautious about it i think
05:48:48Buschelwell, it's a pitty that my GUI-boost didn't work fine...
05:49:00saratogawhat was the issue with that anyway?
05:49:47Buschelit did not boost on scrolling lines. this caused some interference...
05:50:18saratogai always liked the idea of just tying boost to the back light
05:50:21Lloreansaratoga: No, they wanted to raise the base speed to improve performance. Raising the boosted speed really doesn't do much, in almost all cases, I'd think.
05:50:39saratogaLlorean: that makes sense
05:50:55Buschelwe really need to find a solution to scale the CPU for low consuming codecs. FLAC may run at <20MHz, but we're wasting mA's with letting CPU run at 30MHz
05:51:33saratogai really do like the idea of adjusting the base clock speed depending on usage
05:52:00saratogawould it be feasible to lower the base clock speed whenever the back light is off?
05:52:08saratogaand keep it at 30MHz when on?
05:52:20saratogawould sidestep the GUI responsiveness and plugin issues neatly
05:53:10Buschelthis is really something for a seperate patch ;o)
05:53:16Buschelbut it would be feasible

05:54:54BuschelI am doing a test build right now. there will be something quick-and-dirty like #if 0/#else/endif, wherease the #if0 contains the 24MHz variant

06:07:54Buschel30MHz, build ready, just running. now creating patch
06:13:18Lloreansaratoga: I do agree that I'd rather not see the UI responsiveness lowered for just two or three codecs, especially when MPC and FLAC aren't exactly the most widely used things ever in the first place.
06:13:51LloreanIf a solution can be come up with where the UI isn't hindered, then I'm all for savings there, of course.
06:14:12Buschelsaratoga: http://www.sendspace.com/file/gjck1y to verify
06:14:58BuschelLlorean: did you use this patch (@24MHz) and found the GUI less responsive?
06:17:54LloreanBuschel: I don't have a 5th generation iPod, the one where it will most be a problem
06:18:06LloreanBut I know there are already people who think it's not responsive enough during music playback at 30mhz

06:30:00saratogaBuschel: for the commit message, how much should I say this improves battery life?
06:30:04soapdepends on your build habits. If the same files keep getting compiled over and over again w/o revision, it will save you some serious CPU.
06:30:39Buschelsaratoga: let me check my Excel file
06:30:47Lloreansaratoga: you could always just say "significant battery life improvement"
06:31:11LloreanIf you quote a number, someone's always going to say "I don't get that much" and turn out to either have wrong math, or just unique circumstances, but they'll file a bug report nonetheless. :-P

08:00
08:00:40[potato]standby?
08:00:49[potato]wouldn't that be a waste of batteries?
08:04:30soapDepends on your point of view. If the point of batteries is to power your device - and the point of your device is to give a satisfying user experience - and the reboot cuts into your satisfaction - I'd say standby mode would be a good usage of battery.
08:05:31soapAlso, depending on your usage pattern - in and out of standby might actually prolong battery life if you are frequently powering off and on a HDD player.
08:08:12[potato]i didn't think of it that way.
08:08:22mewshiYeah :)

08:08:32mewshimy girlfriend would like that, like the original firmware on her player has

10:11:11amiconnHow did you determine the per-target minimum values for voltages and DEV_ENx?
10:11:58 Quit mewshi (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
10:12:05BuschelDEV_ENx via massive testing. voltages via different steps:
10:12:25Buschela) switch off and see whats happening (e.g. no audio playback)
10:12:44Buschelb) reducing step by step until same effect occurs
10:13:13Buschelc) reading several specs (e.g. different WM-specs) to find out what typical min/max values are
10:13:47amiconnWell, determining the voltage values via trial & error is somewhat nasty. It might work on *your* G5.5, but that doesn't mean it will work on *all* G5.5s
10:13:49Buscheld) of course reading out the unchanged default values when starting up
10:14:12amiconnI might try to add some settings for Mini G2
10:14:20Buschelthere are 3 values changed: a) the 2nd core voltage set to 0. it is not used
10:14:54Buschelb) WM-codec: 2.5V is in normal range for all WM-specs I've read. It even runs at 1.8V on my one
10:15:00amiconnYes, and lcd voltage plus wmcodec voltage lowered
10:15:31amiconnThe lcd voltage change is somewhat questionable, although it might have an advantage if it's actually the bcm voltage
10:15:44Buschelc) 2.6V for LCD also did not show any negative effect. also not for other users
10:16:29amiconnMy point here is that the actual panel voltages are significantly higher, so that the (any) lcd controller has to do upward conversion anyway
10:16:30 Join ender` [0] (i=krneki@84-255-206-8.static.t-2.net)
10:16:38Buschel-> it also works at 2.5V, beyond it there are artifacts visible (tested down to 1.8V)
10:17:16amiconnSo lowering the input voltage might have no effect, or even a bad one, if the lowered input voltage causes the internal converters to run at lower efficiency
10:19:13amiconnAnd regarding the (not committed) change to 24 MHz for unboosted - I'm worried that it would cause complaints about sluggish ui operation. And I don't think we should boost on ui activity - that'd be an extreme measure
10:20:18amiconnThe 'mainstream' codecs boost a little even at 30MHz, so keeping that frequency shouldn't have a negative impact on runtime for those
10:20:41amiconnAnd finally, regarding your extremely slow builds: are you using cygwin?

10:25:49amiconnMaybe, but not if the price is sluggish ui.
10:26:14Buschel_maybe we really could implement something like 30Mhz/80MHz during GUI acitivty and 20MHz/80MHz when GUI is idle?
10:26:40amiconnHmm
10:26:43Buschel_we could even choose 40/80 and 12/80
10:26:48LloreanI'm gonna hafta agree that UI performance shouldn't be sacrificed for runtime. The OF has a pretty snappy UI, and we should be able to do similar.
10:26:50amiconnFor one, I wouldn't go below 24MHz at all
10:27:14amiconnThat seems a 'natural' clock frequency on PP
10:27:50jhMikeSamiconn: I was measuring from the run time screen (a bad idea because it uses deltas) so i measured from a reference tick and all was fine.
10:28:03amiconnjhMikeS: Ah.

10:29:20amiconnWell, it could use the idle/normal switching mechanism
10:29:27Buschel_the overall runtime should not be influences by the clock needed for GUI interaction
10:29:32amiconnSwitch to idle in wps

10:36:01jhMikeSnot yet
10:36:49Buschel_maybe this spinlock-5G-HDD-thrash stuff is connected to ata.c and the special handling which was built in to support large HDDs?
10:37:35HorschtBuschel, does PCFv06 and 7 still need testing for issues? I assume they do, since they seem to do stuff that's not inlcuded in DDvXX
10:38:04Buschel_Horscht: yes, feel free to test them. I am also doing further tests here
10:38:20jhMikeSI'm thinking it may have to do with that. What I'm not clear on is does this happen if no other disk activity is present like some bg scan?
10:38:42Buschel_ask Horscht, he tested the patch
10:39:20HorschtjhMikeS, my test results from that FS entry had the following setup/procedure
10:39:27jhMikeSOne major thing is that spinlock maintains thread position in the list. Right now, a woken thread is placed farthest in the list from the current one (insert last). The patch places it closest to the current one.
10:40:14Buschel_btw, Horscht: you said the HDD in the good case is switched off after ~70s, disk activity (reading) is finished after ~20s. Why is there a delay of 50s before HDD is switched off? my 5G 30GB switches off the HDD ~1s after reading is finished.

11:03:46amiconnThe apparent short disk activity shortly after the actual activity ended is the ata sleep routine
11:04:01amiconnIt applies to all hdd based targets
11:04:36jhMikeSamiconn: will it work to use the alternate sector size on another player for testing purposes?
11:04:38amiconnIt's just not always visible on targets with no physical hdd led due to status bar update frequency
11:04:58amiconnjhMikeS: Not by default, but you can force it to
11:05:20amiconnThe actual sector size on which the amount of transferred data is based isn't different
11:05:31jhMikeSso it won't corrupt the FAT or anything?
11:05:47amiconn(i.e. the ata protocol always calculates based on 512-byte sectors)
11:06:28amiconnIt's just that the MK8011 *requires* transfers to happen in multiples of 2 sectors, with an even start sector number

15:09:03gevaertsrasher: it waited for 500ms after connect detection for any usb activity. That was apparently near the normal delay, which is why some people didn't have the issue. Now it waits for 1 second.
15:11:18bluebrotherDomonoky: why is rbutil a "householding" utility while it's been "housekeeping" in the about box for ages? ;-)
15:11:36bluebrotheroh, and I managed to build rbutilcli without QtGui :)
15:11:47gevaertsWe could try to do some clever tricks like using SCSI_ALLOW_MEDIUM_REMOVAL to see which devices are actually in use by the host, but that's probably being too clever
15:13:26Domonokybluebrother: nice.. householding / keeping.. just a mistake... i coded too much yesterday :-)
15:15:32bluebrotherhehe ;-)
15:15:39bluebrotherhow's progress on the cli?

15:20:43gevaertsdesowin: I'm guessing /dev/sdb1 is your internal flash. If so, the sd card should be /dev/sdc, not /dev/sdb2 (that would be your firmware partition). Do you see anything about /dev/sdc ? It should print out one or two lines about it.
15:20:49desowinfdisk says exactly the same, no matter if card is in or not
15:20:54amiconndesowin: sdb2 ? Iiuc the card slot should be another scsi device
15:21:07desowinahh, another, let me check
15:21:16gevaertsrasher: I know. That's my next task.
15:21:30desowinno other device at all
15:21:49desowinsdb1 is internal flash, yes

15:24:34Buschelhi, just saw that my device disables change has one usecase where USB devices are still enabled but not used: attaching USB when MENU is pressed (e.g. for charging), then detach USB. In this case the devices are still enabled.
15:25:46BuschelAs I cannot code on my notebokk right now. Can anyone try to add http://pastebin.com/m446dcc3e to usb-fw-pp502x.c (the else-patch)?
15:26:02pixelman1s: with the "parsing features.txt" patch, the resulting options are then called like the feature? E.g. "multivolume" and not "HAVE_MULTIVOLUME", I wanted to introduce such a macro now and want to get the naming right.
15:26:59rashergevaerts: Apropos what Buschel just said, there's a problem - if I hold select when plugging I don't get the USB screen, yet the sansa presents the drives over usb

15:49:40desowin(I'm using gentoo as well)
15:49:49rasherDoes Gentoo set CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN=n by default?
15:49:56desowinit's why I have ubuntu here too
15:50:02gevaertsCONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN=y probably slows down the kernel by some infinitesimal amount

15:57:32GodEaterI must admit, I never did :)
15:57:45desowinit's because when someone choses gentoo, it's to "fiddle with it", not just "use it"

16:19:53roolkuBuschel: yes, but that made it worse = black screen (I just added mrobe to the h10 if branch, so not just the resets were effected but also the dev_en etc)

17:28:34gevaertslinuxstb: usbmassbulk_10.pdf specifies what the serial number should look like on pages 9 and 10
17:30:09linuxstbgevaerts: Thanks.
17:31:00gevaertslinuxstb: actually, if I read that correctly it's a bug not to have a serial number in a mass storage device.
17:37:16amiconnAn usb device with no serial number is a violation of the specs
17:37:49amiconnBut there are many usb devices out there without such a number
17:38:18gevaertsamiconn: The serial number is optional for usb, but some device classes require one.
17:38:49amiconnYeah, I mean ums
17:39:13amiconnOn windows you can detect such devices quite easily without checking the internals
17:40:00gevaertsQuestion is, how do we get a serial number ?
17:40:02amiconnIf you attach a device first time, it gets the next free drive letter drive letter. Change that assignment to another letter
17:40:22pixelman1s: maybe I should have asked this before, but does anything speak against introducing a "multivolume" macro now, without that patch? Just making sure... :)
17:40:48n1snothing that I can think of
17:40:48amiconnThen disconnect the device, and plug it into a different port. If it gets assigned the letter you just chose, it does have a serial number
17:41:10amiconnBut if it gets the next free drive letter instead of the chosen one, it has no serial number

18:14:47scorche|shlostlogic: can you remember our rationale for why our profont fonts were "unmodified" (or however we declared it was alright to commit with that licence)
18:15:13lostlogic... because we downloaded them and converted them and nothing else?

18:16:39scorche|shnaw...it was just brought up yesterday and we couldnt remember the rationale..
18:16:42linuxstbThe license only talks about allowing unmodified distribution of the "profont distribution" - which we don't do, we distribute a converted version of one of the items in that distribution.
18:16:42rasherI think that counts as modifying - especially as the license text doesn't mention the bitmaps, but rather the entire package "Profont Distribution"
18:18:07lostlogicMeh, the other side of the coin is that the creator has accepted and posted modified distributions in the past, but now seems to have dropped off of the planet in terms of being contactable about another new distribution
18:18:43rasherThat's hardly terribly explicit permission though
18:22:28linuxstbgevaerts: I've fixed the iProduct/iManufacturer/iSerial strings to be the same as the Apple firmware, but my ipod is still not appearing with the same id as the OF - it's /dev/disk/by-id/usb-Apple_H_000A2700xxxxxxxx-0:0 The "H" is what appears in the kernel logs when linux detects the device - "scsi 43:0:0:0: Direct-Access H PQ: 0 ANSI: 0".

19:35:15sitwonreplix: the processor in the Sansa isn't fast enough for gameboy emulation
19:35:34rashersitwon: huh?
19:35:44replixreally?
19:35:59linuxstbgevaerts: Those serial numbers look invalid to me - IIUC, that PDF you pointed me to says that only hex digits are allowed...
19:36:43sitwonI'm pretty sure I read on the Forums the reason the rockboy was so bad with gbc games was because the cpu wasn't fast enough for full emulation in real-time
19:37:04linuxstbIt should be fast enough, it's just that no-one has worked hard to optimise it.
19:37:22linuxstb(especially as Rockboy is just using one of the two cores)
19:37:31gevaertslinuxstb: let me check what the usb core spec says.
19:37:34sitwonoh, sorry for the misinformation then

19:41:46desowinbecause nobody made it using two
19:41:48gevaertslinuxstb: the core spec doesn't seem to specify anything about serial numbers except their existence
19:44:13linuxstbgevaerts: I'm wondering if the USB_DT_STRING request should be handled in usb_storage.c, rather than usb_core.c ?
19:45:00linuxstbOr am I misunderstanding the hierarchy of things?
19:45:50gevaertslinuxstb: USB_DT_STRING is device-level, not interface-level, so they should be in usb_core.c.
19:47:20gevaertslinuxstb: you could have a device that handles both mass-storage and something else like audio. Those functions will share the same device descriptor (since there is only one of those), and therefore the same vendor,product and serial number strings
19:47:28 Quit karashata (" HydraIRC -> http://www.hydrairc.com <- Organize your IRC")
19:48:04linuxstbSo a device that offers two disks (like the Sansa, with the SD card) will use the same serial number for both disks?
19:48:06gevaertsMaybe we should actually try to build that combination. Imagine being able to play music through your DAP instead of on your DAP...

21:05:34Casainhon1s: I would like to learn understanding Sansa E200, wich is one player I own
21:06:45n1sthe of one is in a special flash which the cpu starts executiong from, it loads the firmware from a hidden partition of the main storage flash, or if rockbox is installed it loads the rb bootloader from said hidden partition
21:07:19n1sthe rb bootloader then loads rockbox from the fat partition of the main flash
21:08:09***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
21:09:13Casainhoso, the main storage flash can be one flash IC with 2 partitions? 1st for bootloader (maybe without file system, just ARM code??) and 2nd with FAT32 file system (with RB and audio files??)??
21:09:55 Join Domonoky_ [0] (n=Domonoky@92.226.197.42)
21:11:35gevaertsCasainho: It's actually the reverse. The first partition contains audio files (and RB), and the second partition has the OF (and RB bootloader). This second partition is indeed not a normal filesystem
21:11:43n1sthe startup code and of bootloader is not in the main flash it's in a separate flash and the of itself lives in the hidden partition
21:12:09n1s^what he said
21:12:41Casainhookok, I understand now :-)
21:12:59Casainho * Anyone with knowledge of the inner workings of Rockbox know if this is feasable? We can always slightly modify rockbox so that it saves configuration changes (or possibly a database, but that should probably be stored on the SD card in question instead) to the serial flash after a config change. The point is that there's no file system on the spi flash, so will Rockbox work? We could...
21:13:01CasainhoRockbox will be stored in SPI flash and be copied to ram upon bootup.
21:13:02Casainho...have the Rockbox bootloader at the start of the serial flash and another binary chunk that's an image of a FAT filesystem that contains the rest of Rockbox (besides RoLo) and then just pretend that the block of RAM that's a copy of this image is equivalent to the mass storage device that the Rockbox files would normally be served from. Easy / difficult to implement this way?
21:14:38peturbah... saratoga added a line to the H10 debug screen and now the last line is lost :(
21:14:46CasainhoSo I will answer to that question, suggesting a system working like Sansa E200, 1 main flash IC with 2 partitions, one with RB bootloader and other for FAT32...
21:15:45Casainhothe ARM MCU we will use have a bootloader to start loading from NAN flash ic...

21:16:17scorche|shwhy do you want 2 partitions?
21:18:03Casainhoscorche|sh: since I understand, one partition will have RB bootloader which will make the other partition with FAT32 available, working
21:19:22SlasheriCasainho: that could be possible if there would be plenty of internal flash available (in the range of several megabytes)
21:19:54CasainhoSlasheri: could be possible, what?
21:20:08Slasherito make a FS in flash memory
21:20:32Slasheribut i don't think any target has that much of flash storage available
21:21:06Casainhobut, I am thinking on that, like 16MB, for RB bootloader + FAT32 with RB code
21:21:43Slasheriah, you are designing a player?

21:54:45linuxstbpetur: I've found it - it's explicitly disabled for ipods...
21:54:58MattAndrewCasainho: alright. I just read your conversation above about the flash thing. I had assumed that rockbox uncompressed with all the plugins and such would fit in RAM, but found out yesterday that it's ~35MB, which means it can't be stored in spi flash compressed and still be usable like it is on a hard drive player where the files are just available without significant modification.
21:55:34crzyboysterI get the latest version from http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=15398.0 extract and run the exe. Then I go to the Accessibility tab, click "Create Voice File" and then select "Hindi" as the language. Then I make the TTS engine be espeak and point it towards C:\Program Files\eSpeak. I didn't input anything for TTS options. I make it rockbox speex encoder and leave the wavtrim as is. I run it. What am
21:56:02MattAndrewcasainho: something like, have rockbox load into ram the main program and whatever plugins are necessary at that moment and then if a new file is needed, to uncompress it from the spi flash on the fly and load it in to ram.

21:59:21ian_hawdonhi, was wondering, has anyone been having problems with playback? e.g. showing it's on track 2 on a playlist when it's only on tack 1? or is this an iPod build problem? currently, I've reverted back to a build sometime in January, where everything seems to work fine
21:59:47rashercrzyboyster: Then you need to see Domonoky_ or bluebrother - it works if you use the Build system, and I've no idea how to tell what goes wrong in rbutil
22:00
22:00:38CasainhoMattAndrew: but why need to use SPI flash?
22:00:46MattAndrewcasainho: but I think I underestimated the size of the flash that we need even for a compressed rockbox. The zip file for the uisimulator is 9.4MB, so maybe we need that much plus some room for the future, and that much capacity is just not available in spi flash right now.
22:00:58crzyboysterI will post in the forums and thanks.

22:33:46stripwaxNico_P - do you know about this bug: if you play a track from an album (which creates the auto playlist for the album), and then edit the playlist, and insert and entire new album in the middle, it doesn't actually buffer or play the tracks you inserted when it gets to them (it continues to play the first album)
22:33:50linuxstbMattAndrew: Why not just talk here? I'm sure others have opinoins.
22:34:28CasainhoI also prefer chating here :-) - because of the logs and others can give ideas also :-)

22:36:17Nico_PI seem to remember testing that
22:36:56MattAndrewlinuxstb, Casainho : I think there's a subtlety about what's being copied. I'm talking about the circuit board design files (schematic, board layout and gerbers), not the general list of parts we've all been discussing that's currently on the wiki. I *am* planning to be the sole designer of the circuit board, at least for this first version.

22:38:34linuxstbMattAndrew: Then that doesn't fall into what I would call an "open/free" design - the whole point of open source software (IMO) is that it's a collaborative process, and everyone has equal rights over the final product. I would like to see the same principles with an open hardware design for Rockbox.
22:38:40CasainhoMattAndrew: can you please add that information about you be the only designer of the circuit biard on TWiki? - because I think Spark would like to work with you for this project, and since that, we will not be able. He should knows that.
22:39:51KittHello, I just put rockbox onto my ipod video (30g) and now explorer doesn't detect the device anymore. I searched in the forums and read that the only way for it to recognize is to switch it back to apple mode whenever you want to transfer songs. Is this the only way to do this?
22:40:04GodEaterKitt: currently yes
22:40:10Kitt:(
22:40:17CasainhoMattAndrew: for me this is no problem, however, understand that are here more people, like Spark and me, that wants to make a totaly free/open hardware, even using KiCad, we will do that!
22:40:22KittOk, thanks GodEater
22:40:47MattAndrewspi flash: I still don't know. If given a bunch of time, I could modify rockbox to work that way, but I can't do it before the summer at any rate if it's really a lot of effort, and the other problem with major changes to rockbox is that maybe everybody else who's a core developer won't like them and won't accept the patches and all the effort will be for nothing or it'll be effort that ends up in a fork that's a dead end or
22:40:51MattAndrewa patch that's not maintained.
22:41:46linuxstbCasainho: This is why I don't think you can ignore the license issue until later - you should try and decide on a license before any design work is done, so everyone knows where they stand.
22:44:07MattAndrewtotally free: I guess we just differ on our definitions of these things. One could argue that public domain is *more* free than open source software / open hardware designs, since you are, in the case of public domain stuff, "free" to change one thing and call it your own copyrighted work. (I'm not arguing for using a public domain "license", I'm just pointing out that "free" has different definitions)
22:44:21GodEaterCasainho: I agree with linuxstb. If you want your design to be properly free/open you cannot share ideas with MattAndrew as long as he wants to license his work under the CC-by-nc-sa
22:44:38BigBambiYou cannot change something under someone elses copyright and claim that copyright yoursdelf

22:45:04MattAndrewclaim copyright: as far as I understand it, public domain means nobody claims copyright ownership on it
22:46:45CasainhoMattAndrew: have a short winodw time to make the hardware, It will be a prototype, not a final version, we after must work on another design, so I think there will be no problem, we can use some parts as Matt is doing from looking at others hardwares :-)
22:47:09BigBambiCasainho: Prototype or not is irrelevent
22:47:41MattAndrewGodEater, "you cannot share ideas": that seems extreme. The design, when finished, will still be freely available for anyone to have a copy of and to use in making a player, just not commercially. This point is really worth saying "don't talk to him at all about it" over?
22:48:25BigBambiI think Casainho (and others) need to be properly aware of what this licence means to them
22:48:37BigBambi(or indeed any other licence)
22:48:41 Join amiconn [50] (n=jens@rockbox/developer/amiconn)
22:48:49linuxstbMattAndrew: The point is not just your final design, it's derivative works as well. So any player based on your design can never be manufacturered commercially, and as hardware costs money (unlike software), that's a big limitation IMO.
22:48:53pixelmaNico_P, kugel: about the skipping song problem earlier, it does happen with the database too. It is also predictable if album = folder, the same thing happens and e.g. all tracks out of my "broken" various tracks folder which end as a single track in a respective sub"folder" in "Album" or "Artist" can't be played
22:49:02MattAndrewand anyway, the list of parts and the reasons behind using them is valuable enough by itself.
22:49:42kugelpixelma: I haven't tested it with a current build, but I don't have this problem with the dircache for multivolume patch applied
22:49:52GodEaterMattAndrew: I think the point is we'd *like* to see a commerical version. It would maker it both cheaper to obtain, and more likely to be better quality.
22:50:09MattAndrewGodEater, ah, I think I'm starting to understand
22:50:17Casainholinuxstb: but in hardware is very dificult to prove that you reuse parts from others... I think there will be no problem in using some parts, as Matt is doing right now! - or I am wrong?
22:50:29BigBambiCasainho: The parts are not the issue
22:50:30MattAndrewGodEater, I can't agree about the quality point though. :)
22:50:43GodEaterMattAndrew: heh - fair enough :)
22:50:58BigBambiManufacturing quality I'd say pretty certainly
22:51:18GodEaterI have only my own soldering skills to look at, and if I saw them in a shop - I wouldn't buy it ;)
22:51:19MattAndrewI can't claim copyright on a non-verbatim copy of a list of parts
22:52:03MattAndrewGodEater, :) I meant more the quality of the pcb layout than the soldering job
22:52:32CasainhoMatt come to make is own version of hardware for his school project
22:52:54linuxstbMattAndrew: I assume you're intending to run Rockbox on your hardware? If so, are you intending to port it yourself, or are you hoping others will help?
22:52:56CasainhoI think we can win something with is work and also we can win :-)
22:52:58BigBambiThing is, I would like an open hardware player, but am never going to contruct it myself, so a commercial version of it is the only option
22:53:01GodEaterin any case, this is really the point we're making. If Casainho end's up using part of your design, it become derivative (iiuc), and therefore will ALSO be unable to be adopted commercially

22:53:54pixelmakugel: it seems like it doesn't happen for everyone and as I said, it's only happening in certain folders for me. I don't think that dircache for multivolume patch changes anything there (might have a small, even negative influence as I could "break" some more folder by chosing settings that take up more RAM)
22:53:59BigBambiCasainho: You are not making any sense
22:54:13GodEaterrasher: I understand so little about the hardware manufacturing process, I have no idea how limiting a factor that is
22:54:19linuxstbrasher: What does the list of parts have anything to do with it? Aren't the schemetics the crucial part?
22:54:21MattAndrewlinuxstb, I am *hoping* that I can build me one and a few others one and send it to them and then they will help port it. I am willing to port it myself if nobody else will, and that was what I was planning before I met Casainho

22:57:17rasherStill, until you get to the "draw a schematic" phase, everything can be shared..
22:57:17linuxstbMattAndrew: The point I wanted to make was that a Rockbox port is a very hard task, even if you have full documentation, and I would expect less people to be interested in porting to a player only you have the rights to manufacture and sell.

23:03:04MattAndrewis there such a legal entity at this time?
23:03:26Casainhothe question here is that this kind of hardware is very simple and we can design quickly taking ideas from here and there! - also sources from Matt don't are important because he will not use a Free/Open source software to design it... we will must do a new design from start, with a free/open osftware like Kicad and not hte Egale

23:04:16saratogaif not, what is the problem
23:04:21rasherBigBambi: depends how trustworthy that person is
23:04:25MattAndrewdesigning something with eagle doesn't limit how it can be used in any way, as long as the designer paid for the eagle license once.
23:04:48BigBambirasher: Of course, but it is still out of your hands
23:04:53linuxstbsaratoga: Basically, MattAndrew is designing a player and is using the non-commercial CC license for it. Others feel this isn't a license we want for an open Rockbox hardware project.
23:05:35saratoganon-commercial CC would appear to be a poor choice of license
23:05:39Lloreansaratoga: One piece of the hardware is already licensed solely noncommercial to one person, meaning only he can make commercial players using that part of the design (meaning any other contributors to the design as a whole would need to replace that first)

23:12:09MattAndrewyeah, but you can argue that about non-open source stuff too. If a company in china manufactures something that's an exact replica of an apple ipod, then there's not much anyone in this country can do, short of talking politicians into an embargo. worldwide copyright protection is a dubious claim
23:12:23LloreanMattAndrew: For me, the only real sticking point is that, were I contributing to the overall player design as a "Rockbox Open Player" I would feel not only uncomfortable with someone unilaterally designing a part of it, but also with the fact that if we decide we wanted a modified version of that part for the final model because some of us saw improvements, despite the fact that we improved it our derivative would still be forcibly noncom
23:12:42CasainhoI still thnik there is no problem since Matt hardware have a few things that will be changed in future, things that were not discussed by everyone, that he choosed by himself
23:13:02BigBambiCasainho: What?
23:13:44Nico_Ppixelma: re http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=15155.msg113364#msg113364 - is this r15444?
23:14:23Casainhothere are parts in hardware that were choosed by Matt, wic I thnik are not realy important for the main objectives of the project
23:14:42pixelmaNico_P: no, r16104
23:14:54pixelmaeh... 16105
23:15:06Nico_Pright
23:15:09Casainhoso, Matt is working a bit alone
23:15:09BigBambiCasainho: I still don't know what relevance that has to the discussion
23:15:18Nico_Pthese two commits seem to have higlighted many issues
23:15:29MattAndrewso how 'bout I put a big disclaimer at the top of the RockboxPlayerPrototypeB wiki page giving a summary of the two sides of this argument, as a disclaimer of how contributing to it might be worthwhile or not, depending on your interpretation of the license and how it can/will be used? Then people can decide for themselves whether they want to help or discuss ideas on a case-by-case basis. Sound good?

23:16:36MattAndrewI will try to write something up and make it fair and somebody else (from the "other" side of the argument) can read it and edit it if he likes. Also good?
23:16:41CasainhoBigBambi: If Matt continues working alone, desiding for himself, he will be alone....
23:16:49BigBambiright...

23:20:13rashergevaerts: nice to get confirmation that it was in fact the MULTI_LUN thing causing infirit problems
23:20:34rasherI wonder why this hasn't been more of a problem
23:20:44linuxstbMattAndrew: The main issue to me is that I don't want to see Rockbox split into different sub-projects with different licenses.... So all hardware projects should share the same license, so they can share schemetics etc without worry of legal issues.
23:21:04gevaertsrasher: yes. I'm also pretty sure that the IO errors he saw came from simultaneous access by other stuff
23:21:10linuxstb(but I'm just one person, others may not care...)
23:22:00Lloreanlinuxstb: I agree with that wholeheartedly, though I'd add that, to me, it's also nearly as important that all contributors have equivalent/equal rights over the final product. IE, nobody can use the whole product commercially (just their individual contributed bits), or everyone can.
23:23:38LloreanWhich most licenses grant anyway, so it's more a case of making sure contributors know what they're getting into.
23:24:48LloreanNico_P: Regarding the default theme, they picked a larger font because they felt the physical size of the screen was small enough that the larger font was needed for readability (I don't agree, but that's the way the discussion worked out)
23:25:15pixelmaNico_P: not sure if it means something but I noticed when testing the skipping problem I can press "stop" during the first buffer and it only takes effect when it's finished buffering, whereas it immediately stops in a folder without this problem.
23:25:48pixelmathe former in a folder with the problem, obviously
23:25:55Nico_PLlorean: then I don't understand why the ipod video version doesn't use a larger font too (although I find it fine as it is)
23:26:19LloreanThe screen is less tall, so you have less lines you can fit maybe?
23:27:00pixelmasmaller font? I still think the font(s) chosen are too small, at least to "light"
23:27:08pixelma*too
23:28:16Nico_PLlorean: maybe, but the end result on the gigabeat is a really cluttered screen. at least they could take out the clock and make AA a bit smaller
23:28:31LloreanNico_P: I agree, just letting you know why it was the way it was.
23:28:39LloreanPeople seem to think AA needs to be "as large as you can fit" =/
23:28:47Nico_Pindeed
23:29:07LloreanMaybe there could be a "View Album Art" option in the context menu for those sillies. =P
23:29:44Nico_Pmy goal in posting the pics on the forum thread was to spark a discussion and hopefully end up with an improved version
23:29:58LloreanGood hope
23:30:58pixelmaNico_P: re. 15444, isn't that the "easy way out"? Maybe the same applies to 16105 too...

23:31:50n1sjhMikeS: I got that feeling too after first reading the imx31 datasheet with details aplenty
23:31:54Nico_Ppixelma: what do you mean by "easy way out"?
23:32:43jhMikeSIt has no descriptions of registers themselves. I even read a mention about that being NDA.
23:34:00n1sjhMikeS: there are drivers in the source of the linux image for the reference design for imx31 that might give a clue
23:34:34jhMikeSwhat does the mc13783 have to do with the imx31?
23:34:48n1sit is used on the reference board too :)
23:35:24Nico_PjhMikeS: what is the mc13783 used in?
23:35:28Nico_Pand for?

23:39:42Nico_Ppixelma: I do agree
23:39:45jhMikeSn1s: thanks. link me up.
23:40:09jhMikeSNico_P: I'm not sure but this mc13783 may come into play somehow with that
23:40:32Nico_Ppixelma: I don't intend to revert those commits. knowing they highlighted the issues can be helpful though
23:40:49Nico_Pand if people can't live with the issues, they can apply the band aid
