#rockbox log for 2008-05-14

00:00:04preglowamiconn: yes
00:00:13amiconnugh...
00:00:14preglowamiconn: the nand is accessed at the lowest level
00:00:21shotofaddsyep, there is essentially no hardware flash controller
00:00:38*amiconn wonders why they chose such a bare-bone approach
00:00:58shotofaddsit certainly provides an interesting challenge...
00:01:13amiconnEven the ooold Ondio's built-in flash is actually an MMC in a standard chip package (bga)
00:01:20preglowamiconn: well, what other solutions are there, apart from nand with sd controllers and ata bridges?
00:01:32 Quit dabujo ("( www.nnscript.com :: NoNameScript 4.2 :: www.regroup-esports.com )")

00:02:28preglowamiconn: i sure as hell would have preferred that
00:02:30amiconnActually CE-ATA uses MMC protocol
00:03:06amiconnThe Sansas use SD (with that proprietary banking extension)

00:05:40amiconnshotofadds: Are such beasts even available yet?
00:05:51preglowi've only seen 16 gig
00:05:56amiconnActually they might, given that D2 uses full size SD
00:06:14amiconn32GB CF are definitely available :)
00:06:33preglowin that package, no surprise
00:07:48preglowcan you get 16 gig usd cards?
00:07:51shotofaddssandisk's 32gb is apparently available mid-June
00:08:00shotofaddsSD, that is
00:08:00preglowat a hefty price, i'd imagine
00:08:06shotofaddsnaturally :)
00:08:17preglowprobably more than i paid for the d2
00:08:21amiconnBecause it's sandisk, or what?
00:08:26preglowboth
00:08:27preglowheh
00:08:49shotofaddssandisk SD cards are >50% more expensive than other brands, at least in the UK
00:08:53*amiconn doesn't think his 32GB CF was too expensive
00:09:12preglowsandisk are more expensive here as well
00:09:13amiconnBranded, but not sandisk
00:09:21preglowbut then again, the sandisk cards are usually high-quality
00:09:23preglowespecially the fast ones

00:39:00jumpatrainif i remember correctly, youre the guy who wanted to port mpc 8 into rb
00:39:10LloreanjhMikeS: I'd wait until after powermanagement so that charging works in bootloader USB maybe?
00:39:12preglowjumpatrain: does that happen for just long files?

00:39:41jumpatrainpreglow then it is normal
00:39:51Lloreanpreglow: Actually, long Vorbis files have a strange noise for me when resuming, but I'd never thought about it (just in case maybe it's not strictly codec-specific)
00:39:58preglowjumpatrain: well, normal and normal. it's not desirable, but it might very well be happening
00:40:05preglowLlorean: what kind of noise?
00:40:11preglowfile length really shouldn't matter

00:40:38preglowthere should just be a pop if anything
00:40:45jhMikeSNico_P: so that actually fixed that?
00:41:11Nico_PI never had it again, but I guess it's fixed if the funky values issue is actually fixed too

00:43:05preglowpop sounds plausible enough

00:54:08preglowwell, i'm wondering why the hell file length would matter
00:54:34jhMikeSLlorean: what sort of header/legal should go in a README.txt file?
00:56:11LloreanjhMikeS: I think just installation instructions and the GPL (or reference to it). Doesn't the GPL more or less say "we offer no warranty of reliability or even usability for any purpose whatsoever" kinda stuff?
00:56:58preglowyes
00:57:17LloreanCovers all the necessary warning to make it a "if you bricked it, don't blame us" kinda thing.

01:22:58saratogaI don't think IDE DMA makes up the difference in runtime for PP
01:23:18saratogathe Sansa has no hard disk and still gets below the retail firmware unless a very fast codec like flac or mpc is used
01:23:29saratogaDMA would probably help, but its not going to close the gap
01:23:43saratogawe waste far to much power on codec decoding
01:24:44saratogaand IRAM does make a big difference for PP in codecs, since most codecs just sequentially load/store memory which is still quite slow since every single cache line must be loaded and then stored
01:26:00saratogafor instance, when doing the TDAC part of the IMDCT windowing process in WMA, I got a ~6% speed up just by putting the samples in IRAM, even though the process only accounted for < 15% of total run time

01:55:55jhMikeSthey take shortcuts so they can boast about decoding speed?
01:57:35jhMikeShad anyone compared the quality of output of libmad to retailos in any meaningful way?
01:58:07preglowi'm quite sure libmad's quality is better
01:58:22preglowbut we have no good way of accessing a raw retailos decode
01:58:31preglowbut yes, they can take shortcuts, like use 32 bit multiplies
01:58:54preglowi'm almost certain that almost all mp3 player firmwares keep to 16 bit processing

02:00
02:00:08amiconnWell, at least on iriver H1x0 we do
02:00:10amiconnJust record the s/pdif signal
02:01:07*amiconn thinks that the coldfire mp3 decoder used in the iriver is inferior to libmad
02:01:17saratogaMAD can actually cheat and do lower precision multiplies too with (supposidly) only a little loss of precision
02:01:20jhMikeSquite honestly, I think the rockbox output sounds better and I really have no bias to prefer one or the other in evaluating it.
02:01:24saratogai don't know if we use it though
02:01:40preglowwe don't
02:01:50amiconnNo idea about any apple OF though (as I can't try them)
02:01:59preglowi really don't want to cut corners like that in rockbox unless we absolutely have to
02:02:13saratogasome of those tricks might make sense though, since the default mad output is good to something like 120 or 130dB, which is rather absurd for MP3
02:02:16preglowi think the potential for sound quality we have is one of our defining features
02:02:27jhMikeSif somhow you can convert some multiplies to shift + add/sub/rsb sequences, you may very well gain speed, at least if it's 32-bit
02:03:00saratogathe trick in mad is mostly to replace 32x32=64 multiplies with 32x32=32 multiplies

02:03:26MeHey I have a question for you guys which everyone here probably gets a lot.
02:03:43preglowthen ask it again
02:04:08preglowjhMikeS: most of the muls in mad are 64 bit, hard to change those with shift/add seqs
02:04:09MeHow far is the progress in v2s?
02:04:14preglowMe: not far at all
02:04:27Me=[ no time soon?
02:04:28jhMikeSpreglow: those are difficult indeed
02:04:41DerPapsti'm sure if it gets asked a lot it's documented somewhere because people are tired of answering the same question over and over again</smart_ass> ;-)
02:04:44preglowMe: not that i know, i think some work has tasted on deciphering the firmware format, but that's that
02:04:45jhMikeSIt's sort of a per-context thing
02:04:47saratogaare 32x32 multiplies a lot faster then the 32x32=64 type?
02:05:03preglowsaratoga: you do shave off two-three cycles by using them
02:05:05Me:[
02:05:19saratogapreglow: thats pretty impressive
02:05:24 Quit Me (Client Quit)
02:05:24saratogait would certainly add up
02:05:32preglowand i'd really, really we don't use them
02:05:33jhMikeSpreglow: "work has tasted" <==?? :p
02:05:43saratogaanyway, I tend to think the precision of decoders is greatly overvalued
02:05:53preglowif we do, i would at least expect some very favorable comparisons
02:06:01preglowsaratoga: even when doing dsp on the output?
02:06:02saratogamarkun broke the WMA decoder last fall in such a way that reduces precision by about 40dB
02:06:08saratogano one has ever noticed
02:06:26preglowsaratoga: that was fixed rather quick, wasn't it?
02:06:33saratogano i haven't bothered
02:06:40jumpatrainhow exactly do you do dsp on the output ?
02:06:59amiconnsaratoga: Actually multiplication speed on arm depends on how many bytes of one of the operands are pouplated. Here are the details: I tried the patch on X5 (Coldfire MCF5250, also having 128KB or IRAM). It sped up decoding of my test track from 482% realtime to 615% realtime!
02:06:59amiconnI've attached the modified patch, which also corrects the checks for PP5022 and PP5024. Those macros don't work like the CPU_* group macros. They are always defined, which would cause v1 to break on any other CPU than PP5022/PP5024. You're supposed to check CONFIG_CPU.
02:06:59amiconnRegarding IRAM distribution - I'd prefer to keep even distribution between core and codecs/plugins, like it's already done in SVN for MCF5250. While IRAM might be quite useful for codecs, it might also be quite useful in the core (e.g. for better DSP code), and there are often also some target specific tasks in the core which profit from extra IRAM.
02:07:02saratogai wanted to look at other ways to attempt his optimization before i reverted it
02:07:09jhMikeS"exactly"? I think the source is needed for that.
02:07:12amiconnBah, what was that! :(
02:07:23preglowamiconn: looks like a paste to me :)
02:07:27amiconnyeah
02:07:42amiconnBut not the one I wanted to do
02:07:52saratogaamiconn: since core uses only a very tiny percentage of total CPU cycles, I'm curious what the use of more IRAM would be?
02:08:03 Quit kennyj (Remote closed the connection)
02:09:05saratogai mean, buschel and I's patches, each save more CPU cycles the entire core uses for typical decode (ignoring resampling and EQ I suppose)\
02:09:19amiconnI already mentioned the main purpose (DSP).
02:09:34preglowi don't know how wise it is to keep reserving iram we might never use, though
02:09:36amiconnThere are target specific things like framebuffer
02:09:54saratogado any of our targets with 128k need that though?
02:10:16amiconnEven the 16K extra for codecs are currently unused on MCF5250
02:10:31amiconnI only used them once for an APE test
02:11:03saratogafor PP at least, I don't believe we use even the 48k we've reserved now, so I don't see much point in adding more
02:11:19saratogaand for coldfire, it would be nice to use the same split, so that optimizations apply to the X5 as well
02:11:31amiconnSo I'd keep even distribution for now, and if it later turns out that it's better used for codecs (or for the core), we can change that
02:11:35jumpatraini can hear noise when im listening to silence on this sansa
02:11:38jumpatrainis that normal ?
02:11:56saratogaamiconn: I've got a good use for the extra 32KB right now
02:12:00saratogathe WMA codec . . .
02:12:15saratogai can put the output buffer in IRAM and speed up both decoding and DSP operations
02:12:25kkurbjunIs a 12% power savings worth a little extra LCD startup time after it turns off?
02:12:49kkurbjunI mean how much would that bug people on the gigabeat F do you think?
02:12:53preglowhow much?
02:13:12saratogapresumably the same trick would be applicable to AAC too, since it uses nearly the same windowing process
02:13:14scorche|sh12% is pretty big..
02:13:18pixelmajumpatrain: yes, unfortunately the Sansas are a bit noise (a bit depends on your exact player)
02:13:26pixelmas/noise/noisy
02:13:36kkurbjunit's a split second after the backlight fades in.. you see a white screen for a brief time and then the normal screen comes up
02:13:38preglowsaratoga: aac would love iram
02:13:54jumpatrainpixelma sansa e280.
02:13:55jumpatrain:(
02:13:57saratogai mean pretty much any pure IMDCT codec should be able to very profitablely use more then 64 kbps of IRAM (as in use it 4 or 5 times per sample instead of DRAM)
02:14:14amiconnsaratoga: If you reduce core iram to 48KB, the M5 will be quite tight (X5 has a bit more room)
02:14:23saratogabecause of it's frame buffer?
02:14:56saratogafor a pure IMDCT codec, you optimally need 48KB of IRAM just for the IMDCT
02:15:07saratogaand thats not counting any of the FFT constants or windowing or any of that
02:15:21saratoga48KB just for the sample data, since each pass of the IMDCT processes 48KB worth of data
02:15:41kkurbjunpreglow, scorche, I tried to eliminate the startup time, but it seems to be a limitation of the on glass LCD controller, not the one in the SOC. I could commit it first and see how people take to it
02:15:57preglowkkurbjun: yeah, but how much extra start time?
02:16:02scorche|shkkurbjun: if it is a split second for 12%.....
02:16:08saratogawith 64 KB, you can start to put things like FFT constants, Windowing constants, and trig tables in IRAM too

02:18:19saratogaamiconn: how much would you save by putting the buffer in DRAM like on color targets?
02:18:26amiconnI'm not entirely sure, but I think this is because both the main and remote framebuffers are in iram
02:19:02amiconnWhile it's the same situation as on H1x0, the M5's remote framebuffer is larger than the H10's

08:11:49*amiconn thinks that patch should probably be committed
08:12:37Buschelsaratoga/preglow: regarding your discussion about 32x32=32 multiplies for mp3-decoder. i am doing the same in the mpc-decoder right now. a lot of tweaking via pre-/postscaling the coefficients and samples must be done −− prescaling should also be done with rounding, not via simple truncation.
08:12:48amiconnIt will help ipod Mini G2, Nano, Video; the Sansas, and iaudio M5 and X5
08:13:25Buschelsaratoga/preglow: of course it adds additional noise, but far below masking threshold from my tests last year.

08:16:46Buschelamiconn: we can compare the gain of dsp in iram via codecs with more iram. the solution which is more efficient overall wins :)
08:16:52amiconnSome non-audio related things too, probably

08:33:15LloreanAnd probably unrelated.
08:33:29linuxstbThat's unimportant (and fixed in SVN for a long time).
08:33:47linuxstbThat value isn't actually used for anything for the Video builds.

08:34:48LloreanCan we rule out firmware 1.3 (is anyone using it?)
08:35:49linuxstbI'm sure they are - I remember quite a few people complaining (wrongly) about Rockbox not working when they upgraded to 1.3, but that was simply because the bootloader was erased. A re-install of the bootloader fixed it.
08:35:58LloreanOkay.
08:37:25LloreanI guess chkdsk is a good next step
08:38:29*Llorean thinks filesystem corruption rates on PP targets are uncomfortably high, but doesn't know if he should decide it's based on the size and quality of userbase, or if he should be worried about the software.

09:08:16pondlifeI'd be more concerned if file systems are being corrupted once Rockbox USB is in use.
09:10:02LloreanI've gotten a few corrupted files on my Gigabeast, but I *think* that was a bad cable.
09:10:10Llorean(in regards to Rockbox USB)
09:10:31pondlifeI mean, we don't write that much at the moment (database building mainly)...
09:10:47LloreanConstant .cfg files updating
09:10:53pondlifeAh, true.
09:10:56LloreanWhich, consequently, is a file we get reports of corruption in quite often.
09:11:12linuxstb_Isn't the "recommended bootloader" simply the latest release on download.rockbox.,org ?
09:11:19Lloreanlinuxstb_: Yes.
09:12:34pondlifeThat's not very visible from the website though.
09:12:54pondlifeDoes RBUtil use http://download.rockbox.org/ for bootloaders?
09:13:07LloreanI believe it's supposed to.
09:13:27LloreanBut a table showing current bootloader version, and giving instructions for determining which one you have, might be nice.
09:13:33LloreanOr "current" and "minimum"
09:15:02*GodEater maintains he's never experienced any sort of file corruption on any of his targets. And I use the last.fm stuff too - so there's constant disk writing going on for me.
09:15:41LloreanGodEater: Do you have an 5.5G or a Sansa?
09:15:46GodEaterboth
09:16:00GodEaterthe 80GB, and a c240

09:16:43LloreanNot a good idea to yet, I believe.
09:16:44linuxstb_pondlife: The manual should also link to the download server. No binaries should be on the wiki.
09:16:58LloreanIIUC with the sansa there *is* a chance of FS corruption with Rockbox USB.

09:17:32LloreanWell, I guess no sense worrying until some of us start seeing these corruption problems.
09:18:01LloreanBut there's just a lot of reports on the forums. I wish there was a way to transmit to users that it's probably not caused by Rockbox without sounding like we're just passing the blame.
09:18:17amiconnpondlife: database (if used), config.cfg, nvram.bin (except on real nvram targets), .playlist_control
09:18:38pondlifeI thought gevaerts had seen Sansa SD corruptions regularly.
09:18:40LloreanAnd I don't think we've seen any signs of nvram corruption or loss of .playlist control.
09:18:47Lloreanpondlife: With use of USB.
09:19:04pondlifeYes, but only on the SD card (IIRC).
09:19:30Lloreanpondlife: I think it's the main filesystem too, it also uses the SD driver, so you may have seen mention of it being a problem with SD?
09:19:38pondlifeAh, ok.
09:19:38GodEaterLlorean: I'm positive that the problem is from people who don't get the idea that they have to do the "safely unplug" hardware thing

09:23:07LloreanGodEater, pondlife: With the H100/H300 it just seems to be a quirk of them. I can not write anything at all, and it'll take two attempts to eject my H100
09:23:10*linuxstb wonders if there are any background tasks that could be running and using the disk
09:23:27pondlifeThat's exactly what I see. I don't think it used to be this picky, but it may be a service pack weirdness.
09:23:29*GodEater blames the recycle bin code
09:23:29amiconnThis has nothing to do with unwritten data

09:28:10pondlifeCHKDSK finds errors - unsurprising..
09:28:22amiconnpondlife: Then you have write caching enabled for some reason. Is this on windows xp?
09:28:36pondlifeYes, and caching is disabled (apparently)
09:29:13pondlife"Optimize for quick removal" is selected, not "Optimize for performance".
09:29:28amiconnSO it should be disabled
09:29:45*amiconn wonders what special background processes pondlife might have running
09:29:46pondlifeIndeed, but something is still delaying writes.
09:30:02pondlifeNothing much, no indexing or similar
09:30:37amiconnI know this message, but I only saw it when write caching was enabled, or when pulling the cable before writing finished
09:31:03amiconn(or when a bug on the device side, like in the rockbox usb stack, prevented writing from finishing properly)
09:31:23pondlifeHow do you know when writing finishes, listen for spindown?
09:31:58pondlifeI might as well enable write caching if I'm going to "safe remove" anyway...

11:27:19BuXY95i have question
11:27:31BuXY95tried to search the site before, but no luck
11:27:39LinusNshoot
11:28:26BuXY95iriver h120. i'd like to record with a stereo external microphone. using line-in, i can't boost the gain to get acceptable volume
11:28:58LinusNthen you will need an external amplifier
11:28:59peturyou mean 48dB is not enough?
11:29:17BuXY95i get about -40dB when i shout at the mike!
11:29:25peturimpossible
11:29:36peturmaybe wrong mike type?
11:29:46BuXY95i'm using sony ecm-ms907
11:30:23BuXY95and the original firmware has an option for external mic, boosting the signal way up
11:30:35peturdid you select line-in?
11:30:42BuXY95in rb, yes
11:31:00peturand gain set to 48dB?
11:31:27BuXY95well, my max value is 12.0dB (sometimes 12.5 dB)
11:31:38peturgot AGC enabled?
11:32:01BuXY95err, yeah... btw, the recording screen has a bug.
11:32:51peturno, that is intentional ;)
11:33:09peturdisable AGC first
11:33:50BuXY95i have safety agc, and the recording screen has a hidden feature: going down below agc type, the line changes to "agc max gain" :)
11:34:16peturyes, that is intentional to save space on displays with less lines
11:34:22BuXY95and yes, letting agc max gain to 48 dB, i can boost the gain to 48 dB, and that is enough for the mike
11:34:35peturyes
11:34:52peturbut anything above 20dB will be noisy
11:35:11BuXY95well, fine, but then at least the lower half of the screen should be scrolling, right?
11:35:12peturso depending on what you want to do, an external amp might be better
11:35:32peturthat is something we're working on

11:36:45peturthere are some patches for that but they are a bit old
11:37:23BuXY95.........and in the recording context menu, the peak meter settings would be useful too

11:39:48*petur hasn't needed the remaining diskspace one give his 80GB disk :)
11:40:50peturand anyway, you should have at least some gigabytes free becuase if the disk is seriously fragmented you'll get buffer overruns and thus gaps in the recording
11:41:05***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
11:41:25peturmeaning, it takes longer and longer to find free blocks if a fragmented disk gets full
11:41:46*petur always kept 10GB free when going to a concert
11:42:03peturor tried to, at least

20:06:48mcuelenaereamiconn: each of those targets aren't really that different to the ZVM30GB
20:07:10amiconnWell, they *are* different targets in configure
20:07:20mcuelenaereyes, that's true
20:07:21amiconnMany targets are very similar to each other
20:07:36mcuelenaereI thought it would be a bit overkill to have different config-xx.h
20:07:37amiconnE.g archos fm recorder and recorder v2; iaudio X5 and M5
20:08:17mcuelenaeredo the ipod 5.5G 32MB and 64MB have different config?
20:08:20amiconnIn fact I won't consider two targets *very* similar if they even have different lcd resolution and/or depth
20:08:52amiconnNo, since that's only a ram size difference
20:09:16mcuelenaereok, maybe the Zen Vision could be split up
20:09:28mcuelenaerebut the ZVM30GB and 60GB only differences is an other USB chip
20:09:41mcuelenaereso I suppose those don't need a separate config,
20:09:41amiconn...and those 2 use the same target selection in configure
20:09:42mcuelenaere?
20:10:30preglowif there's even a slight change in key configurations, screen size, etc, they should have different configure options, imo

20:10:37gevaertsThe difference with the 32MB and the 64MB ipods is that the 32MB build actually works perfectly on any ipod video
20:11:00amiconnI think we should keep the rule that if there are 2 target ids in configure, each of those should also get its own config-*.h
20:11:08mcuelenaerethe 30GB could work perfectly on the 60GB if it weren't for the firmware format signature..
20:11:38amiconnmcuelenaere: Same reason why the archos fm recorder and recorder v2 builds are different
20:11:49mcuelenaereamiconn: so the for the 3 targets, there need to be 3 config-*.h ?
20:12:08amiconnThe rockbox code, and even the scrambling, are binary *identical*. The only difference is the model id in the header
20:12:30amiconn...preventing an fmrecorder ajbrec.ajz from being loaded on a v2 and vice versa
20:12:35 Join Falafel [0] (n=Falafel@186pc220.sshunet.nl)
20:12:43mcuelenaereok, then I'll change the files according to Rockbox philosophy :)
20:12:47amiconnI think so, yes
20:13:47amiconnIt's not that each target is *required* to have its own target id, e.g. the iPod G1 and G2 share a build, handling slight hardware differences at runtime
20:14:53amiconnBut then the build works out of the box on both, without any file name differences. The main reason for doing this is that ipodpatcher can't distinguish 1st and 2nd gen ipods, because the OF is also shared
20:15:43preglowlet's make a universal arm build that works on all arm based targets! :)
20:15:44mcuelenaerethe problem is, it requires several target id as the header file of the firmware needs to be different (ie the 60gb won't accept a 30gb fw)
20:16:29amiconnYes, and hence the config-*.h files should also be different, at least if we decide to stay with the current concept
20:17:30amiconnWe could change the concept, but there's always the problem with ifdefing where to draw the line
20:17:40amiconnpreglow: We're not ipl...

21:56:07 Part czajkowski
21:56:19preglowbut with different command sets
21:56:27amiconnIn SPI mode it's optional, and on Ondio we just don't care. (the crc bytes still need to be present though)
21:56:39preglowdon't know about spi mode, i don't think we'll need it
21:57:01amiconnSPI mode is for really simple hookups without dedicated SD/MMC controller
21:57:12preglowvery weird, the data i get from the card seems to be correct, it just claims to never have powered up, but controller claims crc failed
21:57:39bertrikprobably stating the obvious, but SPI mode does not require CRC except for two commands
21:58:06jhMikeSis there an auto kick on the build server now?
21:58:34amiconnAh, so it's two for SD. For MMC it's just one - the first one, which then disables crc support
21:58:58amiconnAnd since that first command is constant, the crc is also constant, hence just precalculated

22:01:40amiconnjhMikeS: The build system learned that trick a few weeks ago iirc
22:02:12amiconnBut sometimes it doesn't work, afaik that happens if svn is locked for some reason
22:02:13jhMikeSI thought I saw it do it once sometime back but wasn't sure if it was just manual
22:03:22jhMikeSI guess it needs to run "svn cleanup" first ?
22:03:34bertrikAFAIK, the data CRC is never required in SPI mode sd cards. The command CRC is required only for CMD0 (go idle state) and CMD8 (send if cond).

22:26:10shotofaddsall timers are based on a single source (currently 2MHz), which can then be divided and pre-scaled individually by each timer

22:27:27preglowamiconn: hrm, prescaler varies from 2 to 2^5 for each timer individually
22:27:34amiconnThe SH1 timers are all 16 bit only. If you specify a longer timeout than e.g. 65,536/12,000,000 sec on Ondio, it will start using the prescaler, gradually lowering absolute resolution
22:27:41BigBambipixelma: cool :)
22:27:44preglowthat would be enough for all but the most long intervals
22:27:48shotofaddspreglow: that's the source divider. there's also a separate prescaler (iirc)

22:28:34preglowshotofadds: the 32 bit one has an extra prescaler, but doesn't look like the others do
22:28:38mcuelenaeregevaerts: yes, but they aren't really needed
22:29:06mcuelenaeredo UI simulators require a button for the hold button?
22:30:06amiconnThe prescaler on SH1 is limited to 1/2/4/8, so the max. timer interval is pretty limited
22:30:35shotofaddspreglow: hmmm, you're right. there's no extra prescale except on the 32 bit timer. seems I'm losing my mind...
22:31:17preglowjmworx: ping?
22:31:59amiconnThat means that even the 20 bit timer on TCC will allow longer timer intervals than the SH1 timers

22:37:05jhMikeSI think it's about double the width from two years ago when I first came around :)

22:46:11n1sWould anyone be against moving the disk space recalculation feature to it's own menu item? I hit it quite often when trying to exit the info screen because play goes to the wps everywhere else...
22:46:29mcuelenaereBagder: I believe there's still something wrong with the build table; it says platform selected="creativezvm" for all the 3 targets

22:49:12mcuelenaereah, I though you were speaking ironically :)
22:49:20mcuelenaerethought*
22:49:55FalafelHe, was that perhaps the cause of the strange behavior I had yesterday?
22:50:11Bagdermcuelenaere: check the strings again, they're just very very similar
22:50:16Bagdertwo are identical, one is next to
22:50:36Bagdercreativezvm x 2 and then creativezm
22:51:01mcuelenaereFalafel: what was your strange behaviour?
22:51:35Falafelthat whatever I tried the resolution wouldn't change?
22:51:44Anon2733'allo
22:51:51FalafelI never got anything else than 320X240
22:52:15Bagdermcuelenaere: I think we should probably differentiate the "modelname" fields for the two zvm builds for that reason
22:52:19mcuelenaereBagder: you're right, those should be creativezvm30gb, creativezvm60gb and creativezv
22:52:35mcuelenaereFalafel: normally, this should be fixed in current SVN
22:52:40Bagderright
22:52:51FalafelHmm, I'll check when I finish my homework :)

22:55:27Anon2733What mode is the Sansa supposed to be in when you install rockbox? I cannot find any installation instructions, and when I try to install rockbox in MSC and recovery mode, the rockbox utility says it cannot find the Sansa.
22:55:58BigBambiAnon2733: What is the version of the Sansa firmware?
22:56:05Anon2733I was going to try manufacturing mode, but it's been a while since i worked for sanDisk and I cannot figure out how to get into it
22:56:13pixelmaand what Sansa?
22:56:14Anon2733BigBambi: Lemme check
22:56:18Anon2733e270
22:56:27BigBambiAnon2733: you install from normal SC mode
22:56:34BigBambi*MSC
22:56:48BigBambiNOT recovery and especially not manufacturing
22:56:51Anon2733k
22:57:07BagderAnon2733: as an ex-sandisk employee, we'll of course expect you to leak massive amounts of internal info about the hw that we don't know! ;-O
22:57:08Anon2733I thought meebe manufacturing since that is how we used to recover bricked e200's sent in for RMA's
22:57:31Anon2733lol, I've already leaked ton's of SanDisk info to the rockbox community a while ago
22:57:46advcomp2019Anon2733, you have a v1 or v2?
22:57:49Anon2733v1
22:58:06BigBambiAnon2733: sure? What's the OF version?
22:58:13gevaertsAre you running rbutil as root or with administrator privileges ?
22:58:22BigBambiI don't disbelieve you, just want to be sure :)
22:58:30Anon2733I am on Windows running with admin privilidges
22:58:35Anon2733I'm using rbutil
22:58:56Anon2733once this finishes refreshing the database ill let you know the firm version

22:59:39BigBambicool :)
23:00
23:00:04BigBambiAll seems fine - v1, MSC, admin rights
23:00:11Anon2733I should be abel to just connect it in MSC, open the config window in rbutil, choose the sansa, and then install, correct?
23:00:16BigBambiyes
23:00:31Anon2733Lemme try it again
23:00:35BigBambiIt is properly in MSC - i.e. you get a drive letter for it?
23:00:47Anon2733yes
23:00:52BigBambiweird
23:01:14krazykitjust use sansapatcher and zip ;)
23:01:54Anon2733wierd
23:02:01Anon2733rbutil is now working correctly
23:02:16BigBambicool :)
23:02:36Anon2733Well, nevermind then. I don't know why it is working now, it didn't the last 10 times I tried and I didn't do anything different
23:02:59BigBambithe joy of computers
23:03:11Bagderit helps talking about your problems! ;-P
23:03:15*scorche|sh is curious what Anon2733 leaked so he can give credit
23:03:24Anon2733lol
23:04:05Anon2733pretyy much I'm not exactly sure what info I leaked. I did tech support for SanDisk, so I basically just asked the engineers a bunch of questions that a rockbox dev wanted to know
23:04:06LearThe DB refresh is avoidable (on the e200 at least)...
23:04:17Anon2733a lot of technical stuff that I didn't even understand
23:04:21Anon2733avoidable?
23:04:36Anon2733Though I can tell you this
23:05:04Anon2733err, nvm
23:06:05LearYes, never select a language. Refresh is done after that. I never use the OF for other than USB mode, so...
23:06:20*domonoky hugs Anon2733 for his anonymous help.. :-)
23:06:23scorche|shnvm?
23:07:44Anon2733Scorche: I still leak info, but I can'tt leak anything that will get me in trouble right now because I'm not behind a vhost and it's easy to figure out who I am
23:08:01Anon2733There, rockboxed finished installing :)
23:09:16Anon2733lulz, doom on my Sansa
23:09:24*amiconn wonders what's up with the build table
23:09:52amiconnNot the gaps, but the 'ld' failures
23:10:13mcuelenaereZVM simulator works
23:12:10gevaertsIt's as if the build just stops for no reason
23:12:41domonokyso many new targets... :-) now we have 5 players "in the queue" .. yay..
23:12:58LearThe 30 GB build ends the same way, but is green...
23:13:13Bagderah...
23:13:47Bagderdifferent output names
23:14:12Bagderthe build script checks for it by the wrong name atm

23:22:48rexbronhey everyone, I am getting an interesting error with the rockbox bootloader. It is reporting that rockbox.ipod can not be found. I have done a complete installation via the rockbox utility and also tried manually unzipping the current ipod video firmware onto the device. Is there anything else I should try?
23:22:48gevaertsMaybe add the sim as well, now that it builds ?
23:23:18mcuelenaeresounds good to me, only 30GB is supported atm though
23:23:19Bagderyes, a creative sim would be good
23:23:30Bagderfine enough, me add
23:23:41gevaertsrexbron: what ipod exactly ?
23:23:50rexbronIpod Video 30Gb
23:24:06rexbron(That would be 5g iirc)
23:24:12gevaertsCould also be 5.5G
23:24:40preglowjhMikeS: you know if keeping the clock slow is important during sd init?
23:24:44rexbronNo, I am fairly sure it is 5g, but is there a way I can confirm this?
