00:00:58bluebrotherBigBambi: sorry, was distracted
00:01:20*gevaerts grabs his ipod to see if he can reproduce the bug as well
00:01:43preglowgevaerts: the asm code always processes two samples at once, i'm quite sure you can reproduce the bug by forcing dsp to process blocks of odd size
00:02:01BigBambibluebrother: No problems. It seems that ubuntu hardy and debian ubuntu
00:02:06BigBambidamn it

00:14:00preglowhmm, no, that would not explain it

00:45:02bluebrother?
00:45:27pixelmayes, I'm about to commit (also prepared another small change)
00:45:45Y-SignalGev...it crashed with 16718 (?), the latter of the two, so looks like you are correct
00:45:58bluebrothernice. Just recognized that I missed a file during my commit yesterday
00:46:05 Quit phinze ()
00:46:18pixelmabluebrother: which one is it?
00:46:25Y-SignalI was gone for about an hour :P
00:47:28bluebrotherI changed ActionSettings* to ActionSetting* in recording.tex
00:47:31gevaertsY-Signal: great. preglow is working on the bug, and he would like some more information on when exactly it happens.

00:49:10Y-SignalSeems to always be the start
00:49:51Y-SignalIt may get out a fraction of a second of the sound, I'm not sure, but always right at the start
00:50:20pixelmabluebrother: that would have broken all other manuals
00:50:39gevaertsOK. does it happen for the first track you play, or only after a while ?
00:50:52bluebrotherhmm −− for some reason they build fine for me.
00:50:57*bluebrother scratches head
00:50:59pixelmabluebrother: and as I said - there are differences on most targets
00:51:05 Quit CaptainKwel (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
00:51:12gevaertspreglow: if you need more information, now is the time to ask ;)
00:51:36Y-SignalNever the first track
00:52:35gevaertsThanks. I'm out of questions (just playing message-forwarder here), but maybe preglow has some more ?
00:52:38bluebrotherI somewhat lost track of the details of the manual ...
00:52:45pixelmabluebrother: I renamed it to ActionRecSettings* (sounds a bit weird but less confusing)
00:54:12preglowY-Signal: and always mp3?
00:54:42Y-SignalHard to say
00:54:56Y-Signalthere are SPC files too but they don't get played often
00:54:56pixelmabluebrother: otherwise there would be two different definitions (except on the Ipods and H10) of ActionSetting* - one in the settings "context" and one in the recording "context"... I don't think you can tell latex to pick the right one, or would that be possible?
00:55:00LloreanY-Signal: Do you have crossfade on?
00:55:05Y-SignalI do
00:55:17Y-Signalbut it's not always being used when this happens
00:55:26pixelmabluebrother: without too much hassle that is
00:55:30Lloreanpreglow: The crossfade "screeching white noise" bug has been replaced with a crossfade Data Abort bug, according to the most recent report on flyspray.
00:55:33LloreanY-Signal: Try turning it off.
00:55:41Y-Signalokay
00:55:46preglowLlorean: that would not happen in output_sample_stereo
00:55:57Y-Signalgotta put bugged rockbox back on
00:56:01preglowand this does, this is a pure alignment bug
00:56:17preglowY-Signal: do some builds of rockbox work, while others don't?
00:56:39Lloreanpreglow: gevaerts hazarded a guess at which build caused his problem earlier, iirc.
00:56:56preglowbuschel's asm commit
00:57:01LloreanYes.
00:57:08kugelwhich targets doesn't have LCD_BITMAP?
00:57:09preglowi know why the bug happens, just not exactly what triggers it
00:57:16preglowi really should just stop talking about it, and stat debugging it
00:57:26pixelmakugel: the Archos Player
00:57:33preglowbut there'll be no debugging tonight
00:57:34kugeleither rockbox-themes.org says that every target has LCD, or something is wrong
00:58:01Y-Signalpreglow, gev's guess sure seemed correct...3/19 is fine, 3/20 is bad
00:58:04pixelmakugel: it has an LCD, just not a bitmap LCD but charcell
00:58:07kugelor I'm getting the "LCD: 11x2" wring
00:58:10kugelwrong*
00:58:17kugelah ok
00:58:28pixelma11 characters on two lines
00:58:41Y-SignalWhy does nobody else seem to have my problem?
00:58:52Y-SignalI would think that this would be widely occurring
00:59:03 Quit Zarggg (Connection timed out)
00:59:22LloreanY-Signal: There's no reason at all bugs can't be obscure and dependent on the combination of options you've picked, something about your music, or even a combination of both.
00:59:52LloreanUntil we know exactly where the bug is, it's hard to say what exactly is making it happen to you, but not to other 5G owners.
00:59:59Y-Signalah
01:00
01:00:00gevaertsY-Signal: I've been wondering about that as well. Maybe your mp3's are encoded slightly differently than usual
01:00:10pixelmakugel: 11 charactes on each of the two lines that is (so 22 altogether) ... ;)
01:00:20kugelok thanks
01:00:23*Llorean still wants the "crossfade" test, even if it "can't" happen there, because he's curious.
01:00:28Y-Signalwell, I can't find the crossfade option to disable
01:00:46LloreanY-Signal: I'm not sure where it is, but I'm sure the manual tells where.
01:00:53Y-SignalTHERE it is
01:01:04Y-Signalin general\playback, okay
01:01:17*gevaerts suspects that Llorean has heard the "can't happen" line too often just before reproducing a bug ;)
01:01:18jhMikeSmore 5g-only weirdness?
01:01:43bluebrotherpixelma: no, I don't think that's possibly (with acceptable cost)

01:02:46gevaertsLlorean: do you have the crossfade FS-number at hand ?

01:03:22***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
01:03:41pixelmabluebrother: I'd still like to know why the other manuals built for you (because that's different from my solution adding the ActionSettings* (well renamed too) to the H10 and recording Ipods platform files). Or should I not bother and just commit?
01:03:52pixelmawith your change
01:04:10*Llorean guesses the next obvious question for Y-Signal would be "what is the sample rate of your songs", I suppose.
01:05:29Y-Signalwide range

01:05:49Y-Signalit's better with it disabled

01:06:14gevaertspreglow: according to the FS report, this new crossfade data abort seems to be sometimes at the same address as this one, and sometimes in channels_process_sound_chan_mono()
01:06:19preglowY-Signal: anywho, i'll see if i have time to fix it, and will relay it on to the guy who introduced the bug in the first place anyway
01:06:35Y-Signalcool, thanks
01:06:46LloreanY-Signal: Better meaning "doesn't happen" or "happens less"?
01:07:21*Llorean guesses it's hard to say "doesn't happen", I suppose.
01:07:28preglowgevaerts: hmm, a data abort in that function sounds unlikely
01:07:55preglownot unless the pointers are seriously garbled
01:08:34gevaertspreglow: it says 0x40000250, and channels_process_sound_chan_mono() is from 0x40000174 to 0x40000254(exclusive) if I read the map correctly
01:09:41kugelok, I think my patch is good now
01:09:57kugeljust need to add "list viewport: ..." to every default viewport
01:10:05Y-SignalWell, it takes a while to lock up if it's going to
01:10:07Y-Signalbut so far, it has not
01:10:28LloreanY-Signal: Can you try SPCs? You said those were worse.
01:10:45Y-SignalIt's playing mostly SPCs right now

01:11:20bluebrotherpixelma: I'd say commit it −− I had a rather annoying headache yesterday, maybe I did something wrong
01:11:20jhMikeSgevearts: but channels_process_sound_chan_mono is only 52 bytes
01:11:45LloreanIt could still be an untamed pointer from elsewhere, though, couldn't it?
01:12:30kugelI have a question: As of now, with my patch you can assign fg and bg colors for the list (just like in the wps)

01:13:00kugelbut the fg color set in the settings gets overridden. Is that ok?
01:13:07gevaertsjhMikeS: it could of course be in a static function somewhere
01:13:27Lloreankugel: We did some talking on that earlier, and I think the decision was yes, those settings should matter less with time.
01:13:37kugelJust to let you know: the colors can be left out in the viewport definition
01:13:53Y-SignalI gotta go, I'm sure I'll see one of you later
01:14:06LloreanY-Signal: Good luck, hope the crashes stay stopped.
01:14:07Y-Signalthanks for looking into this so much
01:14:16jhMikeSgevearts: Yes. I think that puts it in the last instruction of sample_output_mono.

01:14:46kugelLlorean: unfortunately the statusbar has still the color

01:15:18Lloreankugel: Until there's status bar themeing with viewports. :)
01:15:23kugelso, when I have set FFFFFF in the list viewport, and FF00FF in the global settings, the list will be white and the statusbar pink
01:15:33pixelmabluebrother: ah ok. Somehow this reminds me that currently I don't trust a manual that's not built after a "make clean" (my impression is that some changes are not correctly applied then, don't have an example at hand but I experienceed this)
01:15:37jhMikeSor is the first of sample_output_stereo (I think I miscounted)
01:15:40 Quit mirak (SendQ exceeded)
01:15:52Lloreankugel: The discussion mostly came to the agreement that while the setting still works now, it'll gradually fade out naturally as things get upgraded. I'm sure it'll still affect Radio and Recording screens too, right now.
01:16:09gevaertssample_output_stereo starts at 0x40000254

01:17:07kugelI think it's actually good that the font and color can left out, the values of the parent viewport are applied then
01:17:13gevaertsAnd it crashing on basically the same instruction in mono and stereo cases sounds pretty reasonable to me
01:17:39kugelto be honest, every setting can be left out

01:18:12Lloreankugel: As with other settings, if you leave out a setting it should simply mean the setting doesn't change.
01:18:36LloreanSo if someone sets the viewport with a specific color, then someone re-sets the viewport with new dimensions but doesn't include a color, it should keep the old color that was set, to be consistent with how other settings work.

01:37:03kugelthat's a good idea. The viewport parsing function would reject it and apply the default values

01:37:23kugelwhich is wanted
01:37:37kugellinuxstb: my patch doesn't edit the parent viewport at all
01:37:44kugelthe unused area is just fine
01:39:11ChicoryEr, this is going to seem remedial, but I've been looking over the manual and I must be missing something.
01:39:34ChicoryThe screen blips off after let's say 10 seconds, and I don't know how to increase that value.

01:41:41ChicoryI guess I thought that "backlight" would be more about brightness values. XD;;
01:41:52ChicoryAnd that it would be under "power settings" somewhere.

01:42:03pixelmawell that would be the brightness setting...

01:42:33ChicoryEh, I've just been sub-par mentally all day. :s
01:42:55pixelma(if setting the brightness is possible on your device)
01:43:09pixelmalinuxstb: yes (at least I think so)
01:43:16kugelChicory: I'm not entirely sure if that's given for you (since I don't know your player), but my player does show both backlight and brightness under display (display->LCD settings actually)

01:56:05mud_rb__that would actually be nice...
01:57:20pixelmawhat is the advantage over calling the menu directly? As you say there is a "leave recording screen without stopping recording" and a "stop recording" (or should be) - so you could make the former a "call menu" or not?

02:56:45linuxstbhi
02:57:38Beta2KCan I easily compile just a plugin without going through the whole build process?
02:57:46Gartralcould soeone tell me why theres a buzzing sound in the segment of a recording that the lcd screen was active?
02:58:09linuxstbGartral: Are you using a Sansa?
02:58:21Gartrale250
02:58:23linuxstbBeta2K: No. "make rocks" is the closest.
02:58:33linuxstbGartral: I believe that's a known hardware issue.
02:59:22Gartralbut unlike the listed issue, i only hear the buzzing in a recording done from mic, and not in general useage
02:59:44Gartrali dont have the buzzing anywhere else
02:59:51kugelmeh, I copied from backdrop, and now I have list viewport twice
02:59:53kugel:/
03:00
03:00:21linuxstbGartral: I thought the problem was that the mic picked up electrical noise from the LCD?

03:46:58webguest93nope not even for over a min
03:47:05webguest93if i sent it back t apple do you think they could reload it without recognising the change in the program

03:54:23webguest93they would reset it straight off wouldent they
03:54:52LloreanIf they look at the disk at all, they'll recognize it. As well, you've almost certainly violated your end of the warranty, so they're not obligated to fix it.

04:10:55Lloreankugel: Some people might disagree (black background, white foreground or green foreground are often considered high-contrast and and "accessibility" feature) but overall, yes, it probably should reset the viewport to fullscreen and use its own settings. I'm not saying you need to implement options within it, "sane" defaults like black text on white backdrop can be used for now, I'm sure.

04:11:55kugelI wasn't about to implement a setting, don't worry :)
04:12:52kugelthe problem is only, that the viewports use the list dimensions for some reason (bug? if yes, not caused but discovered by patch). I don't really like that
04:14:07LloreanDon't quote me on this (I haven't really looked into the code side of viewports yet) but something I read suggests that the plugins inherit from their parent, which I guess would be the list?
04:16:27kugelI don't know
04:16:47kugelprobably, I guess that's why JdGordon_ made this commit

06:38:21Klapauciusdo you use the bookmark feature?
06:38:42mud-rbnot really, no
06:38:55 Part toffe82
06:38:58mud-rbif you ask your question someone might be able to help anyways
06:39:03Klapauciusit doesn't appear to work on mine
06:39:12KlapauciusI can open the bookmark menu
06:39:21Klapauciusbut I can't seem to create a new bookmark
06:40:23Klapauciusany ideas?
06:40:32mud-rbdoes it give you an error or anything? i don't have any music on my player right this second (working on a plugin) so i can't really try it.
06:40:57mud-rband has it ever worked, or is this the first time you're trying it?
06:41:15Klapauciusfirst time I'm trying it
06:41:17Klapauciusno errors
06:41:22Klapauciusjust no action whatsoever
06:42:34mud-rblet me look in the manual, i don't even know what that feature is supposed to do... (did you by the way? some features are...less than obvious without checking the manual)
06:44:04Klapauciusthought I did
06:44:16Klapauciusseemed pretty straightforward

06:46:00mud-rbif i understand this correctly, it's just supposed to create a bookmark file when you tell it to. it doesn't really mention any other response. have you tried loading the file again after turning on the "Load Last Bookmark" option?

06:47:05Klapauciusyeah, there are no bookmarks created in the first place

06:49:06mud-rbthis mentions a "Maintain a List of Recently Used Bookmarks" option. is that turned on? (assuming that the Recent Bookmarks menu is where you are looking)
06:50:13Klapauciusyep
06:50:16Klapauciusall options are enabled
06:51:54mud-rbthen i'm not sure. is this a recent build of rockbox? not that i'd expect it to matter much, i'm fairly sure this feature has been stable for quite some time...

06:55:50mud-rbother than that, you might have to wait for the guys that know what they're doing to return from idle :)

09:50:56mrkikoWhy does actually rockbox restart the same song when advancing in playlist?
09:52:10 Quit mud-rb (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
09:52:29mrkikoIt happens reliably effectively when auto-change dir is enabled and you press "next" when you're listening the last song. At that point the song will restart and if you press "next" again, then the second song in the next dir is played, the first is skipped.
09:52:30CricriYay, just received my Sansa e270
09:52:37mrkikoTo listen to the first song you should:
09:52:40CricriNow checking the instructions before jumping in
09:52:45mrkiko* press twice the "back key"
09:52:52mrkiko* press wtice the next key
09:54:15mrkikoThis has always been a rockbox behaviour...
09:54:49mrkikoAnd another note: rockbox crashes not reliably when I'm on the file browser and no songs are playing. When songs are playing it works fine (never crashed)

It would be nice to at least have FUNCTIONAL playback on my music player, as it stands rockbox is irritating to use

13:47:31pixelmathe tab completion works only with one character, e.g. for my nick you can only type "p" and then "tab" a few times through the list of nicks starting with "p"

17:47:48TaylorKillianhello everybody
17:48:13gevaertsHi TaylorKillian! Are you still considering a gsoc proect ?
17:48:24TaylorKillianyup
17:48:56TaylorKillianstill trying to find out exactly what i need to do for the arm emulator ;)
17:49:04ceclinhow many applications have been submitted so far?
17:49:21 Quit mud-rb__ (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
17:49:25gevaertsGreat! Always good to have someone really look into a project before applying
17:50:32Nico_Pceclin: we have 5 so far
17:51:14gevaertsceclin: five, I would say that only one or two are any use (the others are either bad or not rockbox related)
17:51:20TaylorKillianIs Linus Feltzing on this channel?
17:51:41gevaertsHis nick is LinusN. He seems not to be here right now
17:51:51ceclinI'm working on my proposal right now, I hope to have it in later on in the day.

17:53:17Nico_Pbertrik: the negative values in the buffering screen aren't too worrying I think...
17:53:33kugelNico_P: why can't everyone see those applications?
17:53:41DerPapstNico_P: what is the 5th?
17:53:46Nico_Pkugel: they're visible to mentors only
17:53:55kugel:(
17:54:03Nico_PDerPapst: another usability study proposal
17:54:07DerPapstheh
17:54:18kugelDerPapst: You seem to know about the applications, are you a mentor?
17:54:45DerPapstnope... just a good reader :-P
17:54:47kugel("DerPapst: iirc there are now 4 apps. THe usabillity study, the Theme editor (Rincewinds app) and the 2 domonok1 mentioned.")
17:54:57linuxstb_ceclin: What have you decided to go for? RealAudio or game codecs?
17:54:59kugelah ok
17:55:26kugellinuxstb_: how do you like my latest version of customlist? :)
17:55:34DerPapstceclin: or maybe both? ;-)
17:55:51gevaertsTaylorKillian: If I remember correctly, saratoga is the one who put the ARM emulator on the possible project list, so you might also talk to him.
17:56:00*BigBambi is a big fan of more codecs
17:56:06linuxstb_kugel: Try setting a list viewport starting at 0,0 when the statusbar is enabled...
17:56:21ceclinI figured I'd do RealAudio as implementing game codecs wouldn't take all 3 months. Though in my proposal I said id do both if theres time
17:56:27kugellinuxstb_: the list gets moved down
17:56:31kugelat least it should
17:56:35linuxstb_kugel: Try it...
17:56:38TaylorKilliangevaerts: cool, I'll try to contact him. thanks

17:57:00Horschtnot for using them, but for the sake of knowing to be able to use them
17:57:03*gevaerts wants more codecs on rockbox, but not in general
17:57:17DerPapstC2H5OH: nice nick...
17:57:23bertrikwhat codecs would be useful for rockbox?
17:57:24C2H5OHthanks :-)
17:57:37BigBambibertrik: Any and all? :P
17:57:40gevaertsbertrik: .au ?
17:57:41Nico_Pwhat molecule is that?

17:57:48DerPapstalcohol
17:57:49bertrikethanol i guess
17:57:49C2H5OHI was wondering if it's possible to *replace* the ipod nano (1st gen) firmware by the rockbox firmware
17:57:49Nico_Pethanol?
17:57:52BigBambiNico_P: ethanol
17:57:53DerPapstyep
17:57:55*domonok1 thinks the student with the new usability application, didnt really read our website.. :-)

17:58:25BigBambiDerPapst: the OH functional group is an alcohol group - ethanol is just one of many :)
17:58:33kugellinuxstb_: did you know about that or was that just a guess? if yes, why didn't you comment in the fs tast
17:58:39kugels/tast/task
17:58:44HorschtC2H5OH, if you install the rockbox boot loader, rockbox will boot by default
17:58:51DerPapstI know :-P I wan't sure if everyone here knows what ethanol is ;-)
17:58:59C2H5OHHorscht: yeah, but I still have around 90 megs wasted
17:59:11C2H5OH90 megs can hold some more mp3's
17:59:16BigBambiC2H5OH: Yes, I believe there is a fucntion of ipodpatcher that will replace it altogether
17:59:17bertrikgevaerts: oh I thought .au was very similar to wav and hardly needs a codec, but I'll look it up
17:59:23jhMikeSDavide-NYC: gnip
17:59:35DerPapstC2H5OH: yes you can. with a bit fdisk and dd magic.
17:59:37C2H5OHBigBambi: nice, so I just have to follow the docs
17:59:54BigBambiC2H5OH: try running ipodpatcher to give you its help output
17:59:55linuxstb_kugel: Because you're here, so I thought I would let you know before I give you all my feedback on flyspray.... That was just the first viewport I tested, and it didn't work....
17:59:56Horschtbut... won't that break the ipod?
18:00
18:00:04gevaertsbertrik: very probably. I think it's just a different header mostly
18:00:13DerPapstBigBambi: but ipotpatcher can't shrink the firmware patition
18:00:15HorschtI mean, will he still be able to transfer files (go into disk mode)?
18:00:18BigBambiHorscht: It doesn't remove the flash bootloader
18:00:25BigBambiDerPapst: Yes, that is true
18:00:41Horschti see
18:00:49C2H5OHHorscht: the disk mode is not "volatile"
18:00:58Nico_PjhMikeS: hi! saw your messages in the log...I'm not very familiar with boosting. do trigger_cpu_boost and cancel_cpu_boost need to be used symetrically?
18:01:01BigBambiBut I *believe* (note lack of surety) that you can use ipodpatcher to replace it then shrink the partition
18:01:06C2H5OHHorscht: I don't know if any of you have been through it
18:01:06*BigBambi looks at linuxstb
18:01:15DerPapstHorscht: the recommended way to brick is with a hammer to (poorly) quote GodEater. ;-)
18:01:19C2H5OHbut when the Ipod is out of battery and you don't charge it for a week or so
18:01:22*linuxstb_ looks back at BigBambi
18:01:24C2H5OHyou have to restore the firmware via iTunes
18:01:38C2H5OHas I don't have windows (and virtualbox OSE does not support USB)
18:01:46jhMikeSNico_P: no, boost is just "set a boost flag" and cancel is just "cancel the boost flag"
18:01:49HorschtDerPapst, a sledge hammer?
18:01:49BigBambilinuxstb_: Am I correct about completely replacing the iPod firmware then reclaiming some of the firmware partition space?
18:01:53C2H5OHI'm just tired of using the work pc
18:02:09Nico_PjhMikeS: and the flag is specific to the caller thread,
18:02:09Nico_P?
18:02:10linuxstb_BigBambi: Yes - I would interrupt you otherwise ;)
18:02:13kugellinuxstb_: but not defining the viewport (which results in 0,0,.. too) doesn't have this problem :P
18:02:14BigBambiCool :)
18:02:15jhMikeSNico_P: yes
18:02:30gevaertsC2H5OH: I think the emergency disk mode always works, including when the battery is completely empty
18:02:38C2H5OHgevaerts: I know
18:02:47Nico_PjhMikeS: ok so then it does make sense to only cancel the flag when not filling
18:02:54Nico_PI'll commit the change
18:02:57DerPapstC2H5OH: i've never heard that someone had to restore the ipod just because the battery was drained.
18:03:04linuxstb_kugel: I haven't looked at your code very much - I just tried compiling and testing it. It seems to work well apart from that issue.
18:03:14C2H5OHDerPapst: well, it happens
18:03:15gevaertsSo why would you need to restore with itunes ?
18:03:25C2H5OHgevaerts: I don't really know
18:03:27kugellinuxstb_: thatnks for spotting
18:03:29jhMikeSNico_P: BTW, I'm curious about the effect of this patch (which cuts 5 seconds off my H10 buffering time). jhmikes.cleansoap.org/bump-buffering-priority.diff">http://jhmikes.cleansoap.org/bump-buffering-priority.diff
18:03:39DerPapstC2H5OH: you could also manually restore if you don't have access to itunes.
18:03:41C2H5OHthe moral of the story for me is: as a Unix user, never again buy iCrap
18:03:51jhMikeSNico_P: exactly.
18:03:54linuxstb_C2H5OH: Have you already reduced the size of your firmware partition
18:03:56linuxstb_?
18:03:58Nico_PjhMikeS: ok I'll test it
18:04:00C2H5OHlinuxstb_: no
18:04:08C2H5OHI have a backup of everything
18:04:22C2H5OHI backed up the firmware with dd
18:04:22jhMikeSNico_P: on 5g of course :)
18:04:28Nico_Pof course :)
18:04:54linuxstb_C2H5OH: No-one else has reported needing to restore with itunes on a weekly basis... Why do you need to do that?
18:05:06C2H5OHlinuxstb_: is not on a weekly basis
18:05:11C2H5OHsometimes I stop using it
18:05:15C2H5OHwith low battery
18:05:22C2H5OHit seems that the ipod never turns of completely

18:06:12C2H5OHDerPapst: I know

18:06:33DerPapstheh...

18:06:43jhMikeSNico_P: yes
18:06:59linuxstb_C2H5OH: So after your battery has recharged, you're saying Rockbox will start, but won't play music any more?
18:07:04DerPapstC2H5OH: Do you have a USB or a firewire wallcharger?
18:07:25C2H5OHDerPapst: no

18:08:53*jhMikeS isn't sure the point anymore in having HAVE_SCHEDULER_BOOSTCTRL
18:08:56DerPapstC2H5OH: try to replace the OF with rockbox and try to shrink the firmware partition afterwards. That might work.

18:10:35C2H5OHthat's why it's so easy to upgrade, I guess
18:10:37Nico_PjhMikeS: is a boosted thread scheduled differently than a nonboosted one?
18:10:49BigBambiIIUC, ipodpatcher inserts the Rockbox bootloader so that it is called by the Apple flash bootloader, and then loads either Rockbox from the data partition, or the Apple firmware from the firmware partition
18:11:13DerPapstBigBambi: you don't have to install the bootloader if you don't plan to use the OF at all.
18:11:30DerPapstC2H5OH: ./ipodpatcher -wf rockbox.ipod should do the trick
18:11:33BigBambiDerPapst: I'm just talking about normally
18:11:43DerPapstah.. nvm then ;-)
18:11:51C2H5OHmmmm
18:11:55C2H5OHallright
18:12:48DerPapstC2H5OH: then drop .rockbox on the fat partiton and test if it is working.
18:14:03C2H5OHok
18:14:12jhMikeSNico_P: no, just says that the tread wants CPUFREQ_MAX in effect
18:14:55Nico_Pok, so it's not much use to boost the audio thread when it's loading tracks (since the buffering thread is already boosted at that time)?
18:15:05jhMikeSHAVE_SCHEDULER_BOOSTCTRL is just a #define to exclude per-thread boosting (which used to have an automatic element)
18:15:26Nico_Pand currently it's defined?
18:15:40 Quit PaulJam_ (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
18:15:52jhMikeSNico_P: yes it is. a thread should just call that whenever what it's doing is best run a max cpu

18:16:19Nico_Pthen I think I'll add a call in audio_fill_file_buffer
18:16:48bertrikthe .au format doesn't look that complicated
18:17:18jhMikeSmaking sure audio has one prevents an unboost if it's awhile before buffering gets another handle

18:35:54kugelI think the best would be, to calculate this only upon settings load, and give the draw function the needed information

18:37:14nikosapihello, is there a simple way to add a shutdown option to the main menu? (I'm using the latest 5.5G 64MB ram iPod build)
18:37:37jhMikeSDavide-NYC: I think it's wanted in order to be able to personalize the rec screen
18:38:02linuxstb_nikosapi: Do you compile your own Rockbox build? That's the only way to change the menus.
18:38:18Davide-NYCI thought it was wandted (by jdgordon) just to rewrite the WRS, no necesarily make it customizable IIUC
18:38:32nikosapilinuxstb_: ah, I saw that patch on the bug tracker
18:38:53nikosapilinuxstb_: I guess I have no choice but to build it myself...

18:39:02Davide-NYCActually, I understand that the WRS rewrite is on hold until the code gets separated.

18:41:08Nico_Phehe
18:41:48nikosapilinuxstb_: I use the bookmarking feature, so I takes a good 6 seconds of holding down play/pause for it to finally turn off. I'd rather just click shutdown and have it make the bookmark and turn itself off
18:42:03*jhMikeS detests that locking hack and knows it's not right and indicates some deeper issue
18:42:03nikosapis/I/it/
18:42:40linuxstb_nikosapi: 6 seconds until you see the "shutting down" message, or 6 seconds until it's actually off?
18:42:56nikosapilinuxstb_: Let me time it :)
18:44:25jhMikeSBigBambi: No worry. It might be good to put that one down and concentrate on that. Maybe the answer will reveal itself in an unrelated activity (which happens alot).
18:44:36BigBambi\o/
18:45:30nikosapilinuxstb_: yup, exactly 6 seconds till the "Shutting Down" appears
18:45:41nikosapiwhich makes perfect sense
18:45:58nikosapihold 3 secs for bookmark and another 3 sec to shut down

18:52:24bertrikhmmm, crossfade gets effectively disabled when enabling/disabling the EQ during playback
18:56:28bertrikalso the pcm buffer in the buffering debug screen stays at about 15% of max instead of the usual 80% (or so)
18:56:45nikosapiBigBambi: the patch still seems to apply properly

20:23:46kugelThe sim says: We open the real file 'archos/.rockbox/wps/Razor/'
20:23:47kugelERR: Failed to load image 21 - /.rockbox/wps/Razor/; even though the dir is there
20:24:39linuxstb_Which of the four WPSs are you trying?

20:26:03kugelI used the first zip
20:26:48kugelI can't spot such a tag
20:26:55jhMikeSthe "rockbox" in the lower right corner on H120 gets a cool effect from the line selector
20:27:18kugelalso, the whole wps seems to fail, the progressbar and the wps backdrop don't apply as well
20:27:53Nico_PjhMikeS: just tested your patch. buffering *seems* faster and responsiveness doesn't seem to be affected. I say commit :)
20:27:59linuxstb_kugel: Yes, images are now checked as part of the wps parsing, and the WPS rejected if they are not all loaded.
20:28:00kugellinuxstb_: Ahh yea, there's two of those lines
20:28:15kugelI don't get the default wps though
20:28:32jhMikeSit measures faster on other targets too (beyond what 32K alone will do) so I agree :)

20:33:54Nico_Pbtw, regarding adding an error message: I did it, but it gets masked by "settings loaded" when the WPS is loaded along with a theme

21:49:29BHSPitMonkeyI want to apply with Rockbox simply because I've been in here for years, I know the community and the project already.
21:49:59scorche|shgevaerts: i think i may incorporate that into a future bot..
21:50:05BHSPitMonkeyBut, I've never delved into its code before. I feel like that rules me out or something.

22:14:11BHSPitMonkeyof course, that means three write-ups...
22:14:44RincewindI was assuming that there would be one project you would probably like the most

22:39:26BHSPitMonkeyRockbox, I want to grow old with you
22:39:29jhMikeSsaratoga: too tightly in IMHO. decoding and rendering should be better separated though alot of stuff was frameworked to add different parsers.
22:39:30saratogajhMikeS: how difficult would it be to add a second video format into the current encoder?
22:39:46saratogathats good to know
22:40:01saratogai'm debating proposing another GSOC project
22:40:05nubhow do u get rockbox by itself on my ipod, i have the bootloader but thats it
22:40:08saratogaand mpegplayer seems like fun
22:40:10jhMikeSjust more calls though pointers instead of hard coded
22:40:22BHSPitMonkeynub, download the .zip and extract it.
22:40:29nubafter that
22:40:31*domonok1 still only sees one useable gsoc application :-/ so to all apply !! :-)
22:40:38nubits been extracted
22:40:40BHSPitMonkeynub, that's it. You extract it to the ipod's drive.
22:41:03BHSPitMonkeydomonok1, I will, I will
22:41:17saratogai'm not too familar with what a video player actually needs to do, but I assume the underlying "stuff" (synchronization, seeking, ???) are similar enough between MPEG2 and MPEG4 that most of it could be reused?

22:42:33saratogaI was thining of proposing H.264 + mp3 in .mp4 as the core project, with TI DSP acceleration + resizing as the "time permitting" portion
22:42:40Tatshand i figured out i got the wrong rockbox release
22:42:44jhMikeSsaratoga: I don't know how similar they are or if the container assists heavily in seeking. MPEG1/2 is extremely heavy in file searching.
22:42:48Tatshthought i had a 2g mini, but i have 1g
22:42:59domonok1nub, check your players driver, if there really is a .rockbox dir with a rockbox.ipod in it..
22:43:52jhMikeSsaratoga: gigabeat S should also be able to support hardware overlays and colorspace conversion but the decoding would be software, but I guess the TI chips can do both of those.

22:46:28saratogai really have no concept of where CPU time is spent in a video codec
22:46:54saratogaits so weird to look at how they work
22:46:55jhMikeSthe video codec is perhaps about 1/2 the video output load
22:47:04saratogasame ideas as an audio codec, but with tiny transform sizes
22:47:31saratogaand time/space redudancy are split up into seperate encoding tools
22:47:41saratogainstead of being unified in the MDCT
22:48:44jhMikeSyou mean the 8x8 block unit? They use IDCT not MDCT since there's no overlapping.
22:48:46saratogajhMikeS: (so i have something to think about) how difficult do you think making the changes to mpegplayer will be?

22:53:36jhMikeSwhy was the first ffmpeg attempt at video so slow? is the library just not as fast?

23:09:26jhMikeSshouldn't the plugin be renamed if it plays more than mpeg? :)
23:09:47saratogawell xvid + h.264 are still mpeg
23:10:06linuxstbWouldn't it be a separate plugin?
23:11:12jhMikeSit could be but a great deal of mpegplayer work would be applicable to that
23:11:28saratoganot to mention duplicating the audio codec
23:12:00nubyo having problems adding music on the ipod with rockbox
23:12:24jhMikeSthe plugin could have it's own codec api (a mini rockbox within rockbox as it were :)
23:13:04saratoganot to mention i don't know jack about proper threading in rockbox
23:13:12saratogaso i'm hoping the current mpegplayer plugin can do that for me
23:14:07saratogaalso, i just noticed FS #8822, how exactly is resume different from seeking? i just assumed rockbox issued a seek at the start of playback
23:14:42jhMikeSthe threads are _mostly_ insulated from caring about that
23:16:10*amiconn wonders about this whole video codec discussion
23:19:13jhMikeSto add H264 and XVID to mpegplayer and what's involved
23:19:29amiconnYeah, but I don't see the need for another video codec
23:19:55amiconnUnlike audio, one has to resize and hence transcode the video anyway
23:19:56saratogaH.264 makes a lot of sense since its more or less the standard for portable video

23:21:47saratogawhat is hardware image acceleration?
23:21:49rasherAlso, a good deal of content is available as H.264 in DAP-friendly sizes because of ipods and cellphones
23:21:55Narc4746751Morning #rockbox
23:22:18saratogain the long term thats a benefit of H.264, but it'd require an AAC codec that doesn't suck to be really useful
23:22:40linuxstbMaking an AAC codec that doesn't suck would be a more useful SoC project...
23:22:47rashersaratoga: Ah, I lost sight of the sound
23:22:50*amiconn agrees with linuxstb
23:22:53Narc4746751I've got a Sansa e280 v1 that's displaying the blue ring and black screen. I assume this to mean it's already in 'manufacturing mode.' When I connect it to my Linux box, lsusb shows no devices attached. Same when I boot it to manufacturing mode as per the unbrick instructions.
23:22:59amiconnAlthough I personally won't use AAC anyway
23:23:09saratogalinuxstb: I really don't think optimizing FAAC is a whole project
23:23:10jhMikeSsaratoga: it has an IPU for hardware overlays, rotation, scaling, color conversion, color keys and alph-blending
23:23:16Narc4746751Is it possible for me to recover this device?
23:23:36saratogajhMikeS: I don't really get what an IPU is? A DSP? Or something less flexible?
23:23:43rasherNarc4746751: I don't think it is expected to show up iin lsusb when in manufacturing mode
23:23:47saratogadoes it run ARM?
23:24:08Narc4746751rasher, that's encouraging. Do you know what the next step is?

23:24:40Narc4746751okay
23:24:52Narc4746751rincewind, how would it appear in dmesg?
23:24:53linuxstbsaratoga: I'm not sure I agree- there's a lot of profiles of AAC to optimise, and both ARM and Coldfire targets to work on. There's even part of FAAD that aren't converted to fixed point yet.

23:26:06Narc4746751i'll try it again with the select button and hold switch
23:26:13saratogathe other profiles like low delay and scalable sampling rate is more or less irrelevant since no one has encoders for them anyway outside of a few niches

23:30:01Narc4746751maybe i'll donate this one to science.
23:30:49Rincewindit should be possible to recover if nothing is wrong with the hardware itself, sansas are quite hard to brick
23:31:13Narc4746751yeah, i've gone to the end of the unbrick page
