01:23:22stripwaxheatman - rockbox does not *replace* the firmware
01:24:47stripwaxthe rockbox bootloader lets you boot into rockbox *or* the original firmware
01:25:04heatmanstripwax: sry... when i uzipped rockbox fonts after unzipping the firmware into my ipod, i was aked if some files were to be replace.. i sthat supposed to be normal?
01:25:33stripwaxheatman - that should be fine
01:26:00heatmanstripwax: hmmm then i dunno why it wont work!
01:26:34stripwaxheatman - as scorche mentioned, maybe the problem comes down to ipodlinux, which is not supported here
01:26:52stripwaxdo you really need ipodlinux *and* rockbox both to be installed?
01:28:18heatmanstripwax: from what i could understand, rockbox needs to be installed in the root directory of the linux partition to be able to work on an ipod
01:28:48stripwaxrockbox does not need or require ipodlinux. my question was, do you need ipodlinux?
01:29:12scorche|shheatman: rockbox only can read FAT32...regardless, ipl related things are unsupported here as we have said
01:30:27heatmankk... so then those files should be installed on the fat32 partition ?
01:30:43scorche|shwhy dont you try it out..
01:31:07heatmanaye that what im gonna do
01:31:25stripwaxheatman - a regular ipod only has a fat32 partition, and rockbox works on regular ipods, so ..

01:36:42amiconnbarrywardell: I'd rather keep the splash on all targets. It can probably be reduced to a simple splash wiithout a counter, but even that needs testing with a large db

01:37:32amiconnI don't find the splash annoying at all. It gives feedback that something is happening, and it disappears immediately when the result is ready
01:37:38barrywardellamiconn: the problem is the way that the splash is implemented. the one I removed is shown as soon as any option in the db is selected. I've left the counting splash in there
01:37:52amiconn?

01:39:04 Part toffe82
01:39:56barrywardellwhat happens right now is: you click an item. on line tagtree.c:1055, show_search_progress(true, 0); starts the timer and teh gui_syncsplash I removed shows a splash straight away no matter how long the search will take
01:40:01*amiconn only knows one splash in the db, the one that shows the running result count
01:40:27barrywardellthen, the db does the search and does no updating the splash
01:40:45barrywardellonly once the search as returned does it start updating the splash
01:40:52barrywardellthat's my understanding of the code anyway
01:41:08amiconnThe splash updates multiple times during a search
01:41:50amiconnIt seems the interval isn't constant though. Most often the first step I am observing is 9 hits
01:42:05rasherI'd really rather do away with the splashes when they're too quick to read. They're awfully annoying
01:42:58rasherIt's not like anyone has time to wonder "why isn't anything happening" in teh few hundreths of a second the splash is displayed in most cases
01:43:13barrywardellamiconn: from my (admittedly limited) understanding of the code, the splashes aren't updated while the search is actually performed (line 1072 of tagtree.c)
01:44:01amiconnWell, it must be updated somewhere, as I can clearly observe several steps in more complex searches and/or on a slower target
01:44:03barrywardellamiconn: there's a splash at the start (the one I removed), then it starts updating after tagcache_search is finished
01:47:19 Quit stripwax ("Miranda IM! Smaller, Faster, Easier. http://miranda-im.org")
01:47:30barrywardellmaybe that's not totally accurately reflecting what's happening, but it reflects the user experience anyway
01:50:13amiconnrasher: Well, even if the splash isn't readable, it provides visual feedback that rockbox registered your click and is doing something
01:50:33rasheramiconn: If it's so short-lived as to be unreadable, the visual feedback isn't needed
01:50:41rasher(since the results will quickly be there)
01:50:58amiconnNo, but the db doesn't know in the beginning how long the search will take
01:51:53rasherHence barrywardell's idea of only splaching a) When a spin-up is needed on hdd targets b) always on slow targets
01:51:58 Quit MethoS- (Read error: 101 (Network is unreachable))
01:52:03amiconnThe disk activity indicator would also provide that information, but (1) on targets without a physical LED, it often does not do that because the statusbar is often not updated when it should be
01:52:13barrywardellI'm not necessarily against the splashes, but having them appear every time, regardless of how long it takes is not nice
01:53:02barrywardellthe way things are supposed to work, only showing the splash after a period would be OK, if it worked the way it's meant to
01:53:03amiconnAlso, any purely visual information won't help blind users. Several splashes are voiced.
01:53:32barrywardellunfortunately, it's not getting updated right at the moment
01:53:55rasheramiconn: An even better reason to remove unnecessary splashes
01:53:59amiconnThe immediate splash is probably because the period would be too long on hdd based targets, because the thread is blocked for too long by the spinup
01:54:25amiconnrasher: Yes, but the question is whether they actually *are* unnecessary
01:54:26barrywardellamiconn: that was my reasoning for removing it on flash targets
01:54:29amiconnThat's my point here
01:54:53rasheramiconn: And my answer is that unless a spinup is needed, or the target is slow (archos), they are
01:54:58barrywardellI had an idea that might be a best solution for this, but it might be overly complicated
01:55:23barrywardellwould it be possible to show the results as they are being found, so there would be instant feedback
01:55:46 Quit mchua_ (Read error: 113 (No route to host))
01:56:33amiconnrasher: It very much depends on how long the search will take. Since that depends on many factors, the db engine cannot know this beforehand. And hence it's better to always splash instead of relying on coarse estimations
01:56:52amiconnDid you try a complex search across a 20000+ tracks db?
01:56:55rasherThe only one where I can barely see the splash is any search that produces all files in which case it goes "found 1" "found 2" "found 1"
01:57:50rasherMaybe the number of tracks in the db could be taken into account when deciding whether to splash
01:57:55amiconnThe 'all tracks' search is relatively fast from my experience. Try a Search...->Track, and enter a search word...
01:58:09rasheramiconn: that was for user rating: 0
01:58:22amiconn(without loading the db into ram that is)
01:58:29barrywardellamiconn: I tried on a 5000 tracks db and the splashes were more an annoyance than anything. even Search...->Track

02:11:41barrywardellI see the counting up too now
02:12:04rasheramiconn: yeah, that's what I did, I imagine it results in the exact same search anyway
02:15:05amiconnThe same search on my Ondio takes ~3.5sec, across 651 tracks
02:15:55amiconnIt does count up too, and in this case, feels responsive enough without the initial splash
02:16:30amiconnSome other db folders feel a bit sluggist though without that splash (e.g. entering the "User Rating" folder itself)

02:18:10barrywardellwhat do you think about only showing the initial splash if the disk needs to spin up? and then after that relying on the show_search_progress of only updating the splash every 1/4 of a second?
02:18:20amiconnAll actions which could potentially hit the disk and take some time should update the statusbar *before* executing the function

02:27:06pixelmaheh, I can't even say that I really see the splash on my c250...
02:28:20barrywardellwas that before or after my commit today? I could see them every time I selected anything in the db
02:28:59pixelmabefore... searching for "the" in track titles at least showed it long enough that I could at least recognise the splash
02:30:27 Join Soap_ [50] (n=Soap@rockbox/staff/soap)
02:31:06barrywardellso you didn't see a "Searching... 0 found" type splash every time you went up or down in depth in the db tree?
02:31:36pixelmabarrywardell: I could see that the there is something that's supposedly a splash but it's more like "was there something or is it just my imagination?"
02:32:44barrywardellit was definitely noticable on my e280. maybe the different screens show it up more or less
02:32:49pixelmawhen browsing the database it's there but only for a really really short time
02:33:17amiconne280 == 8GB, c250 == 2GB
02:33:37amiconnI would expect the track count to be different
02:33:43amiconnstats.rock should tell
02:34:01pixelma2GB + 1GB microSD - stats says 424 music files
02:34:42barrywardell1182 here
02:35:08pixelmayes sure
02:37:13barrywardellhmm. looking at the code, the counting it totally wrong. I see why we get 1->2->1
02:37:29pixelmabut I know the splash from my other targets, can't really say it's annoying. But I remember that I was quite confused when I first saw it on the Ondio because it's also not there for a long time and ever only showed "0 found", I even asked here...

02:49:44*barrywardell tries out a few different timings

03:20:31NEF|TwitchrHello, I am puzzled at to how to get rockboy on my gigabeat. I installed rockbox software, and i cannot find a download for rockboy. Any help is great, cheers
03:21:47cool_walking__As the manual says, all plugins are already included in Rockbox.
03:22:32cool_walking__There is a section on using Rockboy under "Plugins".
03:23:07NEF|Twitchrroger, thank you sir
03:24:24cool_walking__...
03:24:34cool_walking__The manual does not appear to say that all plugins are included..
03:25:35krazykitthe manual is a work in progress, you know.
03:26:13Soap_all plugins are included, rockboy is a Viewer, also included. This is covered in the manual.
03:26:50cool_walking__I'm trying to find where it says all plugins are included

03:30:17Soap_and section 9.3.4 of the manual specifically says how to run rockboy
03:31:05cool_walking__The fact that there are instructions to run it doesn't necessarily mean it's included in Rockbox, to someone reading that.
03:31:05syn4pseI wrote a game plugin, and posted it on the tracker as a patch. Do you think anyone will notice it? :D

03:34:30syn4pseit could be done on a smaller scale.
03:34:40barrywardellthis shows the splash straight away if the disk needs to spin up
03:35:01barrywardellotherwise shows it if the search takes more than 1/2 second and updates every 1/10 second
03:35:12syn4pseif you look in the amaze.c, the width and height in pixels is #define -d
03:35:40pixelmasyn4pse: the new c file could be in the patch if you "svn add" it before
03:35:48barrywardellthis feels much better to me, but I'll hold off on committing until people have a chance to give opinions on it
03:36:09NEF|TwitchrI have another quick question... With i see that i have rockboy as a veiwer, but how do i get to that via the gigabeat?(sorry if i am asking amature questions)
03:36:48syn4psepixelma: i am confused. svn = greek to me
03:37:01krazykitNEF|Twitchr, the manual should explain what a viewer is and how you work it
03:37:07Soap_section 9.3.4 of the manual does explain how to use it, NEF|Twitchr
03:37:13NEF|Twitchrthank you
03:38:11syn4psepixelma: how would i
03:38:22syn4psepixelma: "svn add" it?
03:39:53syn4psealso, can i release it as gpl if the original author released his code as public domain?

04:27:12syn4psewould 220x176 be a good minimum resolution?
04:27:22scorchefor what?
04:27:29syn4psefor a game plugin
04:27:41scorchethere are smaller screens...
04:27:44syn4psei don't think i could scale down smaller than that
04:28:02syn4psehmm.
04:28:43mud-rbwhat kind of game is it? it'd usually be nice if you can support as many players as possible
04:29:28syn4psewell, it draws a 3D maze, with a central vanishing point.
04:29:51syn4psei think the hard part is showing the map, as it is a little large.
04:31:35syn4psethe 3d view would just be miniscule.
04:31:55syn4psebut still possible, i guess.
04:32:49mud-rbyeah, that kind of thing might be tough. is it just a matter of changing a setting? you could always enable it for as many players as possible, and if it's uselessly small on some, they could be modified later? not sure
04:33:11 Quit barrywardell ()
04:33:41mud-rbi had a lot of trouble trying to tell if a plugin i was writing would be visible on some players too. seems hard without the actual hardware
04:35:04Lloreansyn4pse: Why not make a button the user can press to toggle between "Map view" and "3D view" rather than showing them simultaneously? Then allow the map to be zoomed in and out, for smaller screens?
04:35:17syn4psethat's what i have right now.
04:35:54LloreanThe smallest color screens are 132x80 or 128x128
04:36:18LloreanThe smallest mono bitmap screen is, if i recall, 112x64
04:36:47syn4pseif i went with small colored squares on the map, with a legend, it could be done, but would not be intuitive.
04:38:10LloreanWell, generally speaking, we very much prefer that plugins run on all targets, or at least as wide a range as possible. Quite a few games work quite fine with very small graphics on the smaller screens, you often find you can do more than you thought you could
04:38:19mud-rbwould panning be possible (just show part and let the user scroll around the map)?
04:38:43syn4pseyeah. i was thinking of a scroll. that's probably what i'll have to do on a smaller screen.
04:39:19syn4psethanks, everyone.
04:41:34syn4psei think i have a lot more work to do. :)

07:00:32EnterUserNameDo hardware players help you guys code rockbox or do you guys usually have to reverse engineer?
07:01:57krazykitdo you perhaps mean "hardware companies"?
07:02:16EnterUserNamewell the people that make the mp3 player chipsets
07:02:30EnterUserNameim kinda confused how you guys find the code for these things working with the chipsets
07:02:36scorchethere has only been one company that has really helped...all the others we reverse engineer
07:02:45scorchewe dont find the code...we make it
07:03:09EnterUserNamehmm what about these ppc compilers? you create the functions?
07:03:20EnterUserNameerk well the compilers that compile the c code for these player?
07:03:21scorcheeh?
07:03:53scorchegcc is a whole other project
07:05:41Davide-NYCanybody know anything about the RTC battery in the H10?
07:12:36EnterUserNamehmm should the compiler be arm
07:12:41EnterUserNameor armb?
07:12:49krazykitEnterUserName, use rockboxdev.sh
07:13:16EnterUserNameoh.. ok i usually use gentoo to do this but alright :)
07:13:28EnterUserNamei have both arm and armeb on there
07:14:16krazykiti wouldn't use either of those to compile rockbox. the best thing to do would be to use rockboxdev.sh to set up your cross-compiler.
07:15:35EnterUserNameoh ok.. ive cross compiled before for other devices :) i'll use rockdev.. i think i used gentoo previously can't remember.. i havent done this in awhile
07:15:50EnterUserNamethis was considerably less work because most of the patches have been accepted
07:17:33EnterUserNamehmm im getting errors 500 tryin to connect to gnu

07:51:27*linuxstb wonders which company scorche is talking about
07:51:50scorcheams
07:52:37linuxstbThey've been far less helpful to Rockbox than companies such as Freescale, Philips, Hitachi etc who make their datasheets publically available.
07:54:52scorchewell yes...i assumed he meant in terms of active communication
07:55:02scorchebut i did neglect them..
07:56:24linuxstbI just don't think AMS (making us send people to their offices to collect datasheets, and then not allowing us to share them) deserve a higher status than companies that just make docs freely available for all...

12:02:24BuNsiEoh yeahhh
12:02:56BuNsiEit was a link from a thread leading there ^^ thanks GodEater for saving me the time in looking ;]
12:02:58GodEaterBuNsiE: what do you mean by "change the resolution" of the splash screen bitmap? The screen has a fixed resolution, so all you change is the size of the bitmap.
12:03:27gevaertsbarrywardell: do you have time sometime today to build another c250 repair too for mac ? Same procedure as last time (build e200rpatcher with a custom bootloader.bin), bootloader.bin is at gevaerts/bootloader.bin">http://www.evonet.be/~gevaerts/bootloader.bin
12:03:43Benjamin_LI just tried to patch in the bootloader boost by patch -p0 <bootloader_boost.patch but it doesn't change the files. gevaerts ubs patch worked like a charm using this method so I must be doing something wrong
12:04:10BuNsiEim using the LogoSwapper, and i cant change the height of the bitmap because you cant have any other resolution compared to the original bitmap
12:04:16BuNsiE:S did that make sense?
12:04:21GodEatercorrect you can't
12:04:33GodEaterif you want to change the size, you have to build your own rockbox
12:04:36gevaertsbarrywardell: this one first zeroes the entire flash before rewriting the partition table and FAT, to make sure the OF is entirely gone

12:06:00BuNsiEplayers?
12:06:12GodEaterbut I suspect when the port is done, the Gigabeat S will become my new favourite
12:06:14BuNsiEim using iaudio x5 30g
12:06:23*gevaerts has a sansa c250, but doesn't really have much experience with it as a _player_.
12:06:26Tom0_the X5 is what im thinking of getting
12:06:57Tom0_im a bit of an audiophile so i hear the X5 has the best audio chipset
12:07:29*GodEater has tin ears and doesn't really care
12:07:36BuNsiEi havnt compared to anyother player so cant help you sorry haha
12:08:02*Bagder joins the tin ear crowd with 4 players but can't hear any sound quality difference between them
12:08:06*gevaerts sometimes encodes at 64kbps, because that still sounds "good enough"
12:08:16BuNsiEhaha
12:08:31*GodEater forms the "tin ears" club in one corner of the channel.
12:08:38Tom0_yea lol i prolly wont notice with my earphones as they arnt exactly the best

12:08:53Tom0_how big is the X5, does it fit well in ur pocket?
12:08:54*Bagder recalls the early days of sansa e200 when the sound was broken and he didn't even notice ;-9
12:09:19BuNsiEummmmmm...yes. but i have large pockets maybe?
12:09:19BagderTom0_: see rockbox.org/wiki/DeviceChart for details
12:09:34Bagdersizes and weights etc
12:09:48Tom0_yea i can see the specs but its kinda hard to put it into context
12:09:51markunpeople over at anythingbutipod were raving about the sound quality of the Gigabeat T400, but since it looked like the same hardware as the Gigabeat S inside I wonder if they sound equally good.
12:10:06BagderTom0_: you could compare with something existing you own
12:10:08BuNsiEorr google x5 user reviews/pics
12:10:23BuNsiEusually works
12:10:37Tom0_but its good to hear feedback from people in a chatroom
12:10:40Tom0_i can look up stuff
12:10:44Tom0_n come back n ask more questions
12:10:51BagderI never had a problem with the x5 size
12:10:53BuNsiEok well i dont mind the size
12:11:11BuNsiEits never had any problems in places that i have put it in
12:11:36Tom0_ok then lol
12:11:36GodEaterthe mind boggles...

12:44:07pixelmaTheBashar: after removing the line from within text_editor did you leave the plugin with "save changes and quit" or saved it before? I haven't used it but can't imagine how Rockbox should know what there was before (when loading the playlist) if the line is really gone

13:00:35 Quit DerDome (Client Quit)
13:00:44amiconnThe comment says /* A12=1 means CASL=1 (a0 is not connected) */, but 0xnnnnn800 has bit A11 set
13:00:57amiconn...which in turn leads to the correct setup for the H1x0 sdram
13:01:01BuNsiEumm ok, whats query?
13:01:08 Join CaptainSquid [0] (n=Miranda@proxy17.netz.sbs.de)
13:01:37amiconnAccording to your schematics, the mcf5249's A11 bit is connected to the sdram's A5, and setting that means CASL=2
13:02:21LinusNhmmm, this was a looooong time ago :-)
13:02:32gibbon_BuNsiE: private message on IRC
13:02:35amiconnThis matches the *actual* DACR0 setup (CASL=2), but the comment for this one also says "CAS latency 1"
13:02:40BuNsiEyep registering
13:02:56amiconnBesides, CASL=1 isn't possible with the sdram used in the H1x0
13:03:11LinusNso i guess my comment is wrong then
13:03:17pixelmagibbon_: BuNsiE is not registered so couldn't answer you in a query unless you allow messages from unregistered users
13:03:19amiconnBoth comments, then
13:03:26LinusNyup
13:03:37amiconnAnother question is whether you checked this setup for H300 and X5
13:03:55LinusNi believe i did
13:03:57BuNsiEgibbon: i lost where to register ah
13:04:11gibbon_pixelma: i know, i just told him
13:04:13amiconnThe sdram address bus wiring for H1x0 is rather weird, and I can imagine it being different on other targets
13:04:29amiconnLess likely on H300, but somewhat more likely on X5...
13:04:32BuNsiEgibbon: nvm

16:01:24pondlifeAh, rebuffering killed playback again! Two albums in a row
16:01:41pondlifeIt was more obvious this time
16:01:55LambdaCalculus37pondlife: Me too! My FLAC albums are going nuts!
16:02:27LambdaCalculus37I'm getting that "skip a track, raise the x of y counter on WPS" behavior again.
16:02:30pondlifeYes
16:03:03 Quit Zagor ("Client exiting")
16:03:30pondlifeI was listening to track 8 of 12, when it rebuffered. Playback skipped back to the start of track 8 and now the playlist index is one out (i.e. 9, not 8)
16:03:44pondlifeID3 and track playing remain in sync
16:04:49LambdaCalculus37I also had a track repeat itself when my iPod video rebuffered, and raise the x of y counter.
16:07:37pondlifeBuffering should not affect playback; they are independent processes. Maybe buffering is reusing the buffer that holds the current playing track?
16:08:42LambdaCalculus37pondlife: Now I just had a doozy: playing a Vorbis album, Track 5 finishes, and it jumps FIVE tracks ahead!

18:14:34pondlifeBut haven't had time to experiment properly yet
18:15:34LambdaCalculus37pondlife: Another leap ahead: Track 11 of the playlist finished and jumped to Track 14.
18:15:54pondlife11 shortish songs = 1 buffer?
18:16:14LambdaCalculus3711 songs averaging about 3:30 in playtime.
18:16:36LambdaCalculus37Thus far.
18:16:48Lloreanpondlife: I can't imagine AA would result in such a huge reduction in battery life though. I mean, unless your BMPS are huge, it's probably a similar amount of buffer reduction to having voice enabled (if not less)

19:56:08barrywardellit looks like rockbox UMS mode on H10 might not be far off though, so I'm happy to ignore it until then
19:56:50amiconnIf the cpu has nothing to do, we could put the sdram into low-power self-refresh mode, saving some more battery this way
19:57:21*barrywardell votes in favor of committing it
19:57:29amiconnIt would require to put the idle loop into iram (simple), and also all isr's, at least their entry points
19:58:08amiconnHmm, plus the vector table...
19:58:30gevaertsI don't really know when it will be enabled by default, but once this patch is in, that particular code shouldn't change any more. The rest of the work is in usb-core.c and usb-storage.c (and maybe the crontroller driver as well, if some new information appears)
19:59:34amiconnThe entry point are easy to put into iram on PP, as there are just two - the fiq and the irq dispatcher, but the vector table is a problem

20:37:53gevaertsamiconn: there's a 2k aligned data structure in usb-drv-pp502x.c that's required by the hardware, and the 32k transfer buffer is currently 4k aligned, but probably doesn't have to be

20:44:01GodEater_ah ha
20:44:50gevaertsThe main problem with that is that although we currently use 32k, conceivably at some point in the future (if/when we get chained TDs working properly), we may want more for performance reasons

20:46:58GodEater_so is the answer "no it wouldn't be useful to have it in IRAM" then ?
20:48:21LearGodEater_: It is called audio_get_buffer() within the core. It is used in playlist.c.
20:48:28gevaertsI think the answer is that the audio buffer is preferable if possible. USB doesn't actually need IRAM, and there's more outside (while UMS is active, nothing else is)

20:55:59GodEater_which you won't
20:56:24GodEater_and you don't give the memory back - it's whatever else needs it next's job to steal it back again
20:56:35gevaertsI guess to get 32-byte aligned RAM I just ask for a bit more and align myself ?
20:57:03GodEater_I believe that's the standard method yes
20:57:27LearAnd talk_buf is only used on the old archos-series players.
20:57:55GodEater_so all SWCODEC devices call it with that set to false ?
20:58:01LearThere the talk buffer uses the same memory area as the audio buffer.
20:58:13LearThey don't call it at all.
20:59:03GodEater_we're either talking at cross purposes, or there's some magic going on there that I don't understand then
20:59:25GodEater_where does playback.c get it's memory from then ?
21:00
21:00:26LearIt uses the audio buffer. On swcodec, the voice file is in a separate buffer.
21:00:35GodEater_that's what I meant
21:01:11GodEater_how does playback.c know where the audio buffer starts if it never calls audio_get_buffer() ?
21:01:29GodEater_or is that decided at compile time ?
21:01:47gevaertsSo on calling audio_get_buffer() I get the amount of RAM I ask for, and after I'm done something else might get it. So if the device gets unplugged and plugged in again, I have to call it again ?
21:02:08GodEater_I think so yes
21:02:17*GodEater_ thinks Lear will know better though
21:02:33Learplayback.c defines audio_get_buffer, and knows where to find it.

21:03:39Leargevaerts: No, you get the entire buffer, buflen is an output argument telling you how large it is.
21:03:58LearSo yes, you re-get it on each connect.
21:04:28gevaertsYes. That was becoming clear.
21:04:40LearIf you _really_ want to keep it between connects, there's another function, but any such allocation must be done early on during startup.
21:05:14gevaertsI don't need it when not connected, so this will be fine

21:05:42LearIt is used for cases where you want a static buffer, but want to allow configurable sizes.
21:05:58amiconnLear, gevaerts: Atm it is correct that the voice file is in a separate buffer on swcodec, however, this does not actually depend on codec type, but on memory size

21:42:10gevaertsamiconn: that 4k alignment was not really needed. It was still there from earlier experiments, and putting it back would allow to increase the transfer size to 20k, but it's not really needed
21:42:28gevaertskushal_12_27_200: that's true. It will be done shortly after that reaches zero

22:03:32gevaertsgibbon_: I regularly have buggy versions here, but the published ones should all be reasonably stable. There are some sansa-specific issues though, mainly a write bug in the ata driver that only seems to be visible when writing from usb (mainly on c200), and maybe some signal quality issues
22:03:39gibbon_i sortof tested it... the skippy sound i talked about this morning was caused by audio files broken while copied to the device... sorry to cause such a fuzz
22:05:02gevaertsgibbon_: can you try removing the udelay() call from firmware/target/arm/sandisk/ata-c200_e200.c ? That seems to improve reliablility a lot on my c250. (You have a c, right ?)
22:05:46gibbon_i have a c250 (fm), exactly
22:06:19gibbon_but i guess writing broken data really us unusual right?

22:11:14fyrestormgo ahead. seemed fine
22:12:07*amiconn wonders whether that's a general vista problem, or just when ipods show unusual serial numbers
22:13:21gevaertsamiconn: not yet. I still haven't done the signal quality tests (they require some stack support, which should be there now but is untested). I'll try to test somewhere this week. The fact that no-one sees read-related dmesg output on non-sansa makes me wonder though
22:14:07 Quit troxor (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
22:15:06gevaertsThe UMS spec specifies at least 12 digits, so 16 should be fine. Therefore I suspect it is some ipod specific issue. Maybe some itunes related driver ?
22:15:13amiconnWell, windows has no dmesg. And I still don't trust linux usb support completely; had strange effects with that in the past...
22:15:58*gibbon_ remembers some interrupt issues using tascam interfaces...

22:59:30amiconnAnother detail, probably just due to the i* strings: Linux shows an ipod icon when connecting via diskmode, but just a generic disk icon when connecting via rockbox

23:00:29gevaertsThat's probably the strings, yes. Either the usb strings (i*), or the SCSI inquiry data
23:00:31amiconnAnd no single usb reset
23:00:36krazykitcrzyboyster, did you run svn cleanup ?
23:00:54amiconnSo I think the problem is signal quality....

23:01:25gevaertsI think that strongly suggests that we do still have signalling problems at least on the mini.
23:01:31amiconnI wonder what those transient fullspeed devices are though...

23:02:35gevaertsMy guess is "chirping" issues. It has to do with the way high speed is detected on both sides.

23:04:08*amiconn notices he didn't use the same front port and retries to be 100% sure
23:05:08gevaertsIt's been a while since I actively knew that stuff, but on connect the host sends some kind of high-frequency signal. The device then responds similarly. If the host doesn't see a reply, it hands the device over to a full speed controller. My guess is that this happened here, but the device which saw the host chirp then reset the bus when it didn't get a high speed connection.
23:05:38gevaertsI might have reversed host and device sides there, as I said it's been a while.
23:06:05*amiconn notices he didn't use the same front port and retries to be 100% sure
23:06:12amiconnoops, sorry
23:06:29*gevaerts concludes that amiconn has at least three front ports ;)
23:06:46amiconnNah, just too many keyboards ;)
23:07:11crzyboysterRunning "svn cleanup" shows this > http://img301.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mwsnap066hc0.jpg
23:07:18amiconnWanted to repeat the 'dmesg' command (Up, Enter), but used the wrong keyboard
23:07:39gevaertscrzyboyster: try "svn cleanup rockbox"
23:08:19gevaertsamiconn: That's how I sometimes end up at "sudo halt" and you see a sudden disconnect, only in my case it's usually the wrong xterm

23:09:37crzyboyster(Sorry, I'm a vmware noob)
23:10:41gevaertsamiconn: I'm 99% certain now this is a signal quality issue related to missing initialisation.
23:12:09*amiconn does another test, on windows+hub
23:13:52Bagderone of the dm320 guys should take a look at the creativezvm patch

23:21:52krazykitSab0t8ge, drag and drop; the ipod is just an external hard drive.
23:22:00Sab0t8geDrag and drop where?
23:22:06BigBambiTo your iPod?
23:22:08gibbon_anywhere...
23:22:16Sab0t8geok can just make any folder and rockbox will scan the files?
23:22:20krazykityes.
23:22:21BigBambiyes
23:22:36BigBambiOr you can use the file menu in rockbox
23:22:43scorche|shwell, it wont scan them unless you use database...rockbox doesnt have to scan thing to be able to use them
23:23:16crzyboysterRemove which file?
23:23:18Sab0t8geHow to force a rescan of my files? I tried holding select button and selecting but it wouldnt update the library
23:23:42BigBambicrzyboyster: Perhaps the one that the error message tells you is the problem?
23:23:59BigBambiSab0t8ge: Select update now in the database menu
23:24:10crzyboysterRight, but how would I do that?
23:24:14Bagdercrzyboyster: if you can't deal with these minor issues, what on earth are you planning to do with the code?
23:24:23stripwaxcrzyboyster - you just delete the file
23:24:31BigBambicrzyboyster: Just delete it
23:24:38*BigBambi is puzzled as to the problem
23:25:14crzyboysterWhich file located where? Where is all of the svn downloaded anyways?

23:33:55crzyboysterHow would I delete the entire rockbox/ folder? It seems that I have a screwed up svn download from before.
23:34:01gibbon_easy to remember :)

23:51:24*amiconn is doing a rare thing atm - listening to music on his linux box, playing directly from the H10 usb disk
23:52:10amiconnThe H10 has different power management system, i.e. no PCF50605
23:52:27amiconnIt also has PP5020, while both the Mini G2 and the Sansa c200 have PP5022

23:53:10pixelmanice, will do
23:53:12amiconnNow the question is whether it's some (etxra?) config bit in the PP5022, or is it power supply? (in which case we have to RE 3 different setups)
23:53:21stripwaxdidn't Buschel have a question about the PCF settings for driving USB with 5v?

23:54:06amiconnPCF50605 (ipods), Sansa (might be AS3514, not sure about that), and H10 (no real idea about the power supply..)
23:54:23gevaertsSo we need to find someone with both a PP5020 and a PP5022 ipod to find out.
23:54:42stripwaxyesterday, in fact: http://www.rockbox.org/irc/log-20080226 08:13
23:54:46gevaertsI think the tests have to be done on the same USB port for the results to have any value
23:55:03amiconnstripwax: No, that was me asking Buschel about the DCUD setup. But that's configured as a step-down converter producing 1.8V
23:55:14 Quit ompaul (Client Quit)
23:55:33amiconnyeah, that was his answer
23:56:28amiconnCould have found that myself, but misinterpreted the datasheet :/
23:56:52stripwaxright. so I probably just misunderstood it, but didn't Buschel suggest that maybe it needs to be stepped-up to generate the proper USB voltage?
23:57:31amiconnHmmm, I doubt that. And testing that theory is kinda dangerous....
23:57:37stripwaxtrue
23:57:52stripwaxwell, given that diskmode works, any clues in there?
23:57:58gevaertsfyrestorm: are you still there ?
23:58:33amiconnDiskmode is a rom module, so disassembling it is actually *relatively* easy compared to the full OF...
23:58:42amiconn(due to size)
23:58:51pixelmaFebs: minor nitpick "volume butons", other than that it describes the player pretty well, and has a good solution for my problem "how to describe the button pad", I think. And I also remember wondering if one should mention the thingy ;) for the lanyard and how that would be called in english... :)
