00:27:13MU{lappy}so, it looks like the PRNG used in rockbox is mersenne twister... it also looks like there's a SIMD-based improved version that's faster, even on CPUs w/o actual SIMD instructions, using SWAR. any thought about using SFMT instead of MT?
00:27:51stripwax_is PRNG really used in performance-critical code?
00:27:54stripwax_(in rockbox)
00:28:42 Quit sarixe ("(EE) Failed to load "quit" module")
00:29:02MU{lappy}it is if i ever get to porting sbagen. also, SFMT apparently has better properties w/ regard to randomness
00:29:06xqtftqxbertrik: what do you mean, yeah it adds a argument to the font_load to tell it to load the diffrent font
00:29:13MU{lappy}"SFMT is roughly twice faster than the original Mersenne Twister, and has a better equidistibution property, as well as a quicker recovery from zero-excess initial state."
00:29:25xqtftqxOh, he left
00:31:24MU{lappy}anyway, white-noise and pink-noise generation eats a lot of random numbers - one per sample for white, about two per sample for pink
00:32:25stripwax_MU{lappy} - you can probably still use a very simple rng for generating coloured noise, and there are simpler ones than mersenne for that
00:34:03MU{lappy}maybe i should compare code size for the two versions. if it doesn't bloat code much, or need more state, i don't see any reason not to replace MT w/ SFMT?

00:37:46stripwax_not sure, rockbox records the random seed for shuffle so replacing the rng means you recover a different sequence. probably not such a big deal

00:41:18xqtftqxHuh, theres a euroconverter plugin?
00:41:58stripwax_xqtftqx - is that a statement or a question? :)
00:42:19xqtftqxquestion sorta, i see it here, does it rs?un on any target
00:42:27xqtftqxdoes it run on any targets?*
00:42:45amiconnIt runs on the Player (only)

00:43:30 Join tessarakt [0] (n=jens@e180071180.adsl.alicedsl.de)
00:43:31Lloreanxqtftqx: "The Player" is a specific DAP
00:43:36LloreanThe Archos Jukebox Player.
00:43:37bluebrotherThe player is an archos target
00:43:53xqtftqxOh, why only the "Player"
00:44:17bluebrother'cause archos named it that way?
00:44:19scorche|sh...because it is called the Archos Player?
00:44:23amiconnIt's written in a somewhat charcell specific way
00:44:32B4gderhttp://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/ProjectGlossary#Player
00:44:42amiconnIt's also there to make up for the lack of many other plugins on it
00:44:43*pixelma wonders why there's a need for an euroconverter still anyways
00:45:03scorche|sheh?
00:45:21xqtftqxChould i add it to run on other daps?
00:45:23amiconnIt became pretty pointless anyway over time. The euro has been around for > 7 years now (iirc)
00:46:16amiconnSorry, > 6 years
00:46:18bertriksince 1 jan 2002
00:46:51xqtftqxBut chould i tell it to build with the gigabeat?
00:46:58xqtftqxand whould it work]
00:47:36bluebrotherthe maths would work :)
00:47:39Lloreanxqtftqx: Try it?

00:48:44xqtftqxIll probly change the currency to dollars though
00:48:45stripwax_It sounds fairly pointless, and could just be removed from all DAPs, rather than adding to all builds.

00:49:09xqtftqxWhould be nice if it was Dollars rather then euros
00:49:18stripwax_Given that exchange rates change all the time, it's just as easy to use the calculator plugin, no?
00:49:46pixelmaxqtftqx: but the dollar has an ever changing exchange rate...
00:50:15gevaertsIs that a problem ? A random generator should be able to handle that
00:50:29*stripwax_ splutters
00:50:33stripwax_:)
00:50:40xqtftqxpixelma: Sorry, confused for a second
00:51:12xqtftqxWow, im looking now and a whole lot of patchs have been added
00:51:39 Quit stripwax (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
00:51:43xqtftqxWait, why isnt there a bmp viewer?
00:51:53xqtftqxIt chould be done as simple as 12 minutes
00:52:08pixelmathen do it
00:52:09*gevaerts invites xqtftqx to spend 12 minutes on it
00:52:21*B4gder starts the timer
00:52:24xqtftqxAs soon as im done with this build
00:52:33pixelmalame excuses
00:52:34*B4gder adds 4 minutes to the timer
00:53:16stripwax_you can load bmp into rockpaint, or backdrop
00:53:30xqtftqxExactly the code is all there
00:53:32*dionoea was about to mention rockpaint too
00:53:49stripwax_Um, I meant, it can already do it.. why would you need another viewer?
00:54:00 Join petur [50] (n=petur@rockbox/developer/petur)
00:54:06gevaertsAnd actually there is a bmp viewer. It even does slideshows. All you need to do is name them cover.bmp
00:54:10Lloreanstripwax_: To be fair, it'd be nice to have the slideshow function BMP, but that just means jpegviewer needs to be imageviewer
00:54:13dionoeaThe only thing rockpaint can't do is scale images
00:54:15Lloreangevaerts: Quite true
00:54:34dionoeaAnd yeah, missing slide show stuff
00:54:36stripwax_Llorean - mm, but now there's a photo gallery patch..
00:54:37xqtftqxYeah, that chould be where part of the bmp resize app comes in
00:54:42pixelmait only works for greyscale + colour targets
00:55:19pixelmaa bmp viewer could be able to work on monochrome displays too with the help of the greylib
00:55:39pixelmabut that might take a little longer than 12 minutes...
00:55:49*stripwax_ smiles
00:55:52B4gderwant me to add another 4? ;-)
00:56:04*dionoea thought that rockpaint only worked on colour displays, not greyscale ones
00:56:15xqtftqxI was saying a normal viewer with resize nor grayscale support
00:57:03PaulJamLlorean: it is good that you asked me for any remaining major bugs, i just rememebered that i had a freeze issue that i wanted to try to reproduce in the official build.
00:57:06pixelmadionoea: yes, but album art works on greyscale too though it just uses the 4 grey
00:57:08pixelmas
00:57:14Genre9mp3B4gder: it's all a matter of minutes... how many will eventualy be needed for 3.0? :P
00:57:27xqtftqx:)
00:57:42B4gdermore than 4?
00:57:45B4gderdarn
00:57:54xqtftqxlets say 400
00:58:05xqtftqxlets say 4000*
00:59:25LloreanPaulJam: Let me know if you manage to, and I'll add it to one of the lists (doesn't sound critical if we don't have others screaming about it too, but we'll see and there are plenty of other lists of bugs after the criticals are done)
00:59:57xqtftqxfor a bmp viewer you chould take out the zoom,and slideshow and add it to rockpaint with the painting
01:00
01:00:17xqtftqxtake the zoom and slideshow from jpeg*
01:00:23 Quit goffa (Remote closed the connection)
01:00:37Lloreanxqtftqx: Actually you can't take the zoom from jpeg. But feel free to post a patch.
01:00:59xqtftqxOk, ill work on it a little later
01:01:27PaulJamLlorean: it seems to be reproduceable, but it requires some switching between db and filebrowser which you usually don't do so often.
01:01:47 Quit stripwax_ ("Miranda IM! Smaller, Faster, Easier. http://miranda-im.org")
01:01:57PaulJami'll just open a task and let others decide about the severity.
01:02:01LloreanPaulJam: So probably on the list of "it'd be really nice to see this gone" (in my mind every freeze is major, but if it's not likely to interfere with several users, not dead critical)
01:02:06LloreanYeah, open a task. :)
01:02:33xqtftqxWhats the test_codec plugin
01:02:54B4gderwhat do you think it is?
01:03:29Genre9mp3What is going to happen with "GPLv2 only" code in Rockbox? Will get rewritten? If that's the case, is that intended to happen before 3.0?
01:03:29B4gderI think the name is quite revealing
01:03:45B4gderGenre9mp3: yes, and hopefully
01:03:50LloreanGenre9mp3: Yes it will be rewritten. No it's not a blocker for 3.0, though it'd be nice.

01:08:56Domonokyso how much beer is needed till 3.0 :-)
01:09:29scorche|shthat depends on who is drinking it ;)
01:09:32Llorean"All of it"
01:10:26bluebrotherDomonoky: do you know the upper limit for the drive number on w32?
01:10:33bluebrother26?
01:11:28Genre9mp3Do we have a new codename for 3.0 or is it still "Mayday"?
01:11:41LloreanWe haven't yet decided.
01:12:12LloreanThough it's not particularly appropriate here.
01:12:39Genre9mp3Llorean: indeed... 3.0 was originally planned for 1st of May 2006, right?
01:13:09Domonokybluebrother: correct
01:13:19LloreanGenre9mp3: Something like that
01:13:33B4gderthat means we won't make it to the 26 months delayed anniversary
01:13:56LloreanOnce we can do a feature freeze, we can look for a holiday-based codename
01:14:18LloreanMaybe whoever comes up with the best codename gets automatic immunity from being stuck as Release Coordinator
01:14:37B4gdernow we're talking
01:15:04gevaertsSo who decides what the best codename is ?
01:15:16LloreanPublic vote.
01:15:33Genre9mp3gevaerts: RSB?
01:15:40*pixelma thoght the steering board...

03:31:16jr50I have a question about the WPS on my themes
03:31:52jr50No matter which theme I download, I cant get the WPS to work on any of them
03:33:10MU{lappy}there was a change in wps recently related to progress bar display, no?
03:33:56jr50well i when i play music all i See is the menu backdrop
03:34:26MU{lappy}http://www.rockbox.org/since-4weeks.html <- scroll down to r17759
03:35:01MU{lappy}... also would it be possible to do id=revnum for the <tr>s? ;)
03:35:13jr50i dont understand
03:36:35jr50so is there anyway to fix this
03:36:46MU{lappy}i am saying that WPS changed recently, and it will break old WPS files. there is a script linked in the revision notes for converting old WPS files.
03:38:12jr50how do you use the script
03:39:12jr50??
03:39:45MU{lappy}looks like r17763 changed something, too
03:40:28MU{lappy}and you run the script with perl
03:40:38jr50perl ?
03:41:54MU{lappy}this is getting into off-topic territory, really. perl is a scripting language, use google to find out how to get a copy for whatever OS you're using. or convert the WPS by hand in a text editor.
03:42:18 Quit jr50 ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
03:44:17MU{lappy}maybe should've just said "ask the author of the WPS to update it"

03:51:47MU{lappy}ok, i see that some of playlist.c relies on being able to produce the "same" shuffled list again by using a saved seed... so, yeah, changing the PRNG might make such cases load "wrong". i'll look at just using something simple/fast for PRNG inside pink noise gen
03:58:25MU{lappy}i see a few different places that use various combinations of tick or time to seed the PRNG... would it maybe be a good idea to implement one auto_srand(), or perhaps to have srand generate a seed when a certain magic value is passed, 0 for example?
03:59:32 Part wastrel ("l8r")
04:00
04:01:13JdGordonwhy?
04:03:37MU{lappy}to replace multiple differing chunks of code w/ calls to one function?
04:04:58MU{lappy}if you grep the source tree, there are ~40-50 calls to srand, most of which have their own code to produce a seed
04:07:31MU{lappy}a lot use current_tick, some try to generate it from current time
04:08:27MU{lappy}fireworks appears to re-seed w/ current_tick * i for each explosion it sets off
04:09:37MU{lappy}erm, for each point in the explosion, actually, looking more closely
04:12:43JdGordonok, so whats the real problem? everything doing it its own may makes it more random
04:15:46MU{lappy}i don't think it seriously effects performance or function, but it's code duplication, and i just don't see a reason not to have exactly one formula that's implemented in one place and called as needed.
04:16:27MU{lappy}they're all using some sort of unpredictable variable based on the passage of time, so having multiple implementations doesn't actually do anything to improve randomness.
04:18:10MU{lappy}i'm not looking to step on anybody's toes, it's just something where i think a small improvement could easily be made, that i happened to stumble across.
04:21:52JdGordonI dont think its really worth the effort

04:35:59MU{lappy}more of a would-anybody-consider-applying-it than a would-somebody-else-write-it question
04:37:35JdGordonwell... the other thing is we try to have POSIX like functinos where posible.. and I guess srand/rand fit into that also..
04:39:43MU{lappy}and maintaining a familiar interface sounds like a good enough reason to me, then, i won't bother.

04:41:57MU{lappy}the only other thing about the RNG i might think about improving is offering an alternate seed function w/ larger seed sizes. that would mainly benefit shuffling, since it doesn't take a very long list of items to have more than 2**32 possible orderings, and therefore orderings that can never happen because of seed size
04:42:15MU{lappy}but *that* is a much tougher job, because you'd need a good source for large seeds, then.

05:01:51shadoxxNo. It just doesn't want me to copy files to the recovery partition
05:02:04shadoxxi put it into recovery mode, go to copy the .mi4 file, and it locks up
05:04:32shadoxxthat's on my windows box though. I just put it on my laptop, and it seems to be doing fine

05:09:06shadoxxand it's not registering as any kind of device
05:09:37shadoxx]wait no
05:09:38advcomp2019that is manufacturing mode.. you will need to use the e200tool
05:10:00shadoxxi just got it to go to recovery mode again
05:10:59shadoxxnow it keeps saying LUN0 locked, LUN0 unlocked
05:11:11shadoxxafter i put the firmware.mi4 file on the recovery partition
05:12:09advcomp2019you have a e200 or c200?
05:12:25shadoxxc250
05:12:30shadoxxso c200
05:13:49advcomp2019o ok.. that should work.. i am not sure what is going on myself then
05:14:16shadoxxmeh

05:20:54shadoxxok, firmware.mi4 is still there

05:27:37shadoxxAny possible way the locking up could be a bad flash?
05:27:55shadoxxIt's a refurb off of Woot
05:28:34krazykitcould be. if you want to be thorough, reload the bootloader (put the bootloader file in the recovery mode partition), let it update, put it back into recovery mode and put in the firmware.mi4
05:28:49shadoxxbootloader is the .bin file right?

07:46:45LloreanJdGordon: As for show stoppers for a release, as long as all the screens are usable normally, I'm pretty sure viewports isn't considered one.

07:50:17JdGordonLlorean: well... i was listening at like 2am so i might have remembered it wrong :p I thought I remembered everyone wanting to replace the bookamrk with a m3u?
07:50:27LloreanNo
07:50:34LloreanThat was one of the proposed ideas.
07:51:05LloreanBut not a final decision or anything. Just a "bookmarks could contain a playlist so that you always have a list of the files to resume"
07:51:13JdGordonah ok then
07:51:58LloreanThe main consensus was "it needs to work better, and not be different, as users shouldn't have to care if it's a static or dynamic playlist, or if they've inserted songs from another folder, or if they used database for some/all"
07:52:14LloreanI imagine any halfway decent patch that does that will get looked at pretty quickly

07:53:00LloreanDidn't get brought up

10:54:57PaulJamLlorean: i was just wondering, what is your opinion about FS #8748 concerning 3.0? i could imagine that this could happen during regular use when someone just forgets to disable partymode (but in the other hand i haven't seen any reports from others about this problem).
10:56:28LloreanPaulJam: Well, the one comment can't reproduce it, but there's probably a decent chance it's actually related to the other playlist weirdness.
10:56:56LloreanOh, misread the comment
10:57:03LloreanBut still, let's see if the other playlist fix fixes it
10:57:05*JdGordon reckons the end of the playlist should disable party mode so that doesnt happen
10:57:06pixelmayay... I "like" the stats plugin change, especially considering that I just updated the documentation last week to say "/me "likes" the stats plugin commit... especially since the addition of "Press Button X to abort counting and exit the plugin. Press any key to quit after counting has finished."... :\
10:57:33pixelmaoops
10:57:35LloreanJdGordon: Party mode could be non-persistent across boots, so people never forget it's on.
10:57:46pixelmasorry for that "sentence"
10:57:55PaulJamJdGordon: actually i didn't let the playlist finish, but shut the device down.
10:58:20 Join roolku [0] (n=roolku@62.220.28.17)
10:58:34JdGordonwell... if there is music being resumed then its OK if its persisted.. but if your going to start up in the menus/browser it shouldnt be
10:58:42JdGordonbut thats not very consistant
10:58:52*pixelma goes for another cup of coffee
10:59:15JdGordonPaulJam: seen the patch for the sleep timer and usb power bug?
10:59:19LloreanJdGordon: Arguably, a party-mode player should reject being shut down.
10:59:42JdGordontrue
10:59:46PaulJamJdGordon: yes, but i haven't tried it yet.
11:00
11:00:45PaulJamLlorean: but then you'd still have the low batt shutdown
11:00:51JdGordonanyway, that sounds like a bug in the playlist generation code
11:01:16LloreanPaulJam: Yes, but if you can't shut down in party mode, then having party mode not persist across boots makes perfect sense, since it should never be on at boot. ;)
11:01:26LloreanDoesn't mean, though, that current behaviour isn't indicative of a bug. It certainly is.
11:01:36LloreanI just kinda suspect it's in the same family as the current playlist weirdness bug.
11:01:59bluebrotherZagor: the blue bar at the top of the wiki pages is really nice. But the links in it are kinda hard readable due to the blue on blue thingy ... is that intended?
11:02:33Zagorno I'm intending to make them white like in the left menu
11:02:57ZagorI'm not the best with css though. feel free to help.
11:03:38*bluebrother goes taking a look while MinGW creates a break ...
11:04:24Zagor:)
11:04:26PaulJamWell, i don't usually use partymode, so i don't know what the desired behaviour across boots would be. (i actually used it only once to prevent a friend from changing the song and he tried to be smart by restarting the player and selecting another song :) )
11:04:53pixelmaJdGordon: mind updating the stats.tex for the manual then? ;)
11:05:12gevaertspartymode is defined as 'never stop playing, whatever happens'. That somehow implies ignoring shutdown requests
11:05:17LloreanPaulJam: Yeah, "What should party mode do" can be discussed some other time, maybe once we have some people who use it to comment. :)
11:05:44JdGordonpixelma: I can tihnk of one or two other things I'd rather be doing :p
11:05:58JdGordonalso, I cant build the manual here, and dont know latex...
11:06:40Zagoras the author of party mode, I can say I didn't intend for it to be persistent across boots. I thought that would risk causing a lot of grief.
11:07:56pixelmayou would only need to rephrase 1 (or 2 sentences) no latex involved there, setting up the build environment to be able to build manuals is not hard, especially under linux

11:10:30pixelmahehe that could work...
11:11:05pixelmaJdGordon: want to commit it yourself?
11:11:37JdGordonnot really... that will make you expect me to fix the manual more often :p
11:11:42JdGordonbut yeah... commiting
11:18:08JdGordonwell this is odd.... my e200 just crashed in the OF disconnecting from usb!
11:18:37pixelmathanks
11:19:01gevaertsYou mean the OF has bugs? How awful!
11:19:15JdGordon:)
11:19:31*JdGordon sets a 5 min sleep timer and runs off for a while
11:21:34PaulJambtw, is the non existent USB in rockbox for PP targets a 3.0 issue?
11:24:40 Join Genre9mp3 [0] (n=yngwiejo@rockbox/contributor/Genre9mp3)
11:24:46bertrikIMHO, it is not a major issue, because booting the OF for USB and charging is a very useable work-around. Especially with the provisions in the bootloader to automatically boot OF on power up from USB and the clearing of the database refresh bit.

11:32:44PaulJamok
11:34:10LloreanThe goal is to see that any really major bugs are fixed, then spend a period concentrating on as much bug fixes with the other stuff as possible, then if there are features / plugins / codecs that don't work "well enough" we remove them entirely for the release version.
11:34:22LloreanA release doesn't need every "testing" feature, just the ones that work above a certain level of reliability

11:42:31Lloreanamiconn: I think we should.
11:43:05LloreanI'd like all bootloaders (when practical )to either have bootloader USB or, when USB isn't available to boot some form of disk mode instead of Rockbox.
11:43:54amiconnSame for the 1st 4th gen ipod bootloaders (including minis) and firewire
11:43:59amiconn1st..4th
11:44:17LloreanYes, substitute "USB" with "appropriate means of connection with the host"

11:44:53JdGordontested on my e200 and worked fine
11:45:36amiconnLlorean: There'll be a bit of inconsistency once we add bootloader usb for PP - handle usb in the bootloader, but boot to OF for firewire
11:45:49amiconn(unless we learn how to do firewire ourselves as well)
11:46:19JdGordonis it possible to get the bootloaders to pass their version to the main binary?
11:46:25Lloreanamiconn: Not ideal, but at least it'll be consistent in terms of "if you have a cable plugged in, you don't go into Rockbox itself"
11:46:33 Quit ompaul (Remote closed the connection)
11:46:43bertrikamiconn, I have no idea how the bootloader currently works for ipods, but I really like the way it works now for the sansas
11:47:29amiconnIt boots to rockbox by default, and it detects 2 different buttons for booting either into OF or ipodlinux
11:47:48amiconnNo USB or firewire detection yet

11:48:34amiconnSo without rockbox usb it's rather annoying to boot an ipod by plugging usb/fw: Rockbox bootloader boots rockbox, rockbox detects usb/fw, and reboots into diskmode
11:48:42DomonokyJdGordon: yes, rbutil for OSX is one version behind.. but mak
11:49:04Domonokymake sure to build a staticbuild...
11:49:14JdGordonDomonoky: do you want access to my osx box so you can build it whenever its needed?

13:04:11*gevaerts remembers that he has to show Domonoky and bluebrother how rbutil behaves with ion2
13:04:47PaulJami think it would require someone to keep updating id when something in the database cahnges, there were already tools to update the DB on the PC side, but they became incompatible and forgotten.

13:06:29DomonokyPaulJam: there is the beginning of a db update tool which uses rockbox db code... so this should always be uptodate :-)
13:06:52bluebrotherGenre9mp3: please do
13:07:02bluebrothersorry, was meant for gevaerts
13:07:32oboDomonoky: it has some nice errors when doing a "make database" under /tools :)
13:08:33LloreanPaulJam: Yes, as Domonoky, we should be including the core Rockbox database generation, rather than using a script.
13:09:16Domonokyobo: yes i said "beginning" :-)
13:09:24bertrikSorry, but what problem is solved by generating the database on the PC side?
13:09:30obospeed
13:10:07Genre9mp3bertrik: speed and automation (not have to do it manualy later on target)
13:10:20obomaybe it could also alert the user if it comes across corrupt/unreadable tags?
13:11:51JdGordonit dropped me so you may have mentioned this.... moving the current install means you lose the userdata...
13:11:52bertrikI don't think it's that slow on my DAP and it is done automatically, but maybe it slow is on other players.

13:13:55bertrikGenre9mp3, ok I have a flash target with just 4GB
13:14:41bertrikBut maybe we should just try to make it faster on target rather than completely changing the way it is generated
13:15:14Genre9mp3bertrik: well you could still update the dB on target

13:24:07PaulJamGenre9mp3: i think there was some talk about that in yesterdays conference, not sure what the outcome was, though.
13:25:02B4gderwhat's there to talk about them?
13:25:13TyroAn alternative way is to temporarily tell the compiler to accept commands from your build directory (where you wish to build rockbox). This can be done by typing the following into cygwin, after navigating to your build directory export PATH=/usr/local/arm-elf/bin:$PATH
13:25:22B4gderthose are more action-points rather that discussions
13:25:26Tyroi try this because it sounds easier for me..

13:25:48Genre9mp3B4gder: I was actually wondering about h300 bootloader as showstopper to 3.0
13:26:02B4gderI don't think we consider it that
13:26:55LloreanIt's not.
13:27:02LloreanWe have _one_ registered showstopper right now.
13:27:09PaulJamon the roadmap fo 3.0 in the tracker the bootloader issues are still listed.
13:27:09LloreanThe rest of them are just "really like to have"s
13:28:29*Genre9mp3 suggests lock petur, LinusN and some h300s in a seperate room after the meeting! ;)
13:28:44LinusNi'm working on it

13:35:05JdGordonthe malloced blob moves around so its dangerous...
13:35:17LloreanIt's safe enough for some uses.
13:35:35LinusNwe can add malloc(), but not free()
13:35:51gevaertsOr we can add free, but not malloc()
13:36:47PaulJambtw. LinusN, petur: if there are any non-risk-of-bricking things i could do to help with testing H300 bootloader issues, feel free to ping me. My h300 has problems with the svn bootloader too.
13:37:26JdGordonwps for the fm screen...
13:37:31peturPaulJam: is your h300 modified in any way?
13:39:13Tyroso, i realy dont get it.. so i ask once again.. somebody here who would compile for me?
13:39:41PaulJampetur: yes, replaced the HD with a MK4007GAL. (and replaced the battery and the UDA1380TT, but that is probably not of importance)

14:02:52Nico_PLlorean: it shouldn't be too hard... the master server could run a script regularly or on each commit to sync the git repo with the svn repo, and push the new commit(s)
14:03:05LloreanNico_P: Good to hear, we're in favour of setting such a thing up.
14:03:15Nico_Pit could become more complicated if we want to allow pushing to the git repo to commit
14:03:37Nico_Pbut that wouldn't be a very good idea IMHO... either we switch or we don't
14:03:48Genre9mp3What would be the benfits of such a move?
14:03:49Nico_P(about the second thing I described)
14:04:13Tyropleaaase!
14:04:13LloreanNico_P: Right now, commits go out to git, but don't come back from it seems to be preferred
14:04:21Nico_PI agree
14:04:26Tyroi wanna listen to music in the week
14:04:36Nico_PATM, all I do to sync my repo is "git svn rebase; git push main"
14:04:41scorche|shyou cant do that with the official version?
14:04:53scorche|shand you never reported with how your path adding went
14:04:57LloreanNico_P: So, pretty trivial.

14:13:38LloreanI don't see any target-specific blockers among them, except maybe the 1G/2G
14:13:46LloreanSince having players you can't turn off might confuse users.
14:13:58Nico_Pdid you discuss the GUI slowness on the 5.5G (and prob. others)?
14:14:17Nico_Pi.e. committing a GUI boost patch before release
14:14:24LloreanIt wasn't even brought up when we were trying to bring up blockers.
14:14:51LloreanWe really only focused on "what HAS to be fixed" leaving "what should be fixed" to be things that individuals care about focusing on.
14:14:56Nico_PI'm not sure it's really a blocker
14:15:01LloreanI don't think it is.
14:15:01Nico_Pyeah
14:15:14LloreanThat being said, it's probably not a bad fix

15:51:55wild_oscargood afternoon!
15:52:31wild_oscarI have never tried rockbox, but am curious to know what's the probability of it working on an ipod which seems to be faulty
15:52:40BigBambiwild_oscar: faulty how?
15:53:08wild_oscarie, I was looking at ebay's auctions and saw a lot of faulty ipods there. most of them say they "display an unhappy face logo at boot"
15:53:24BigBambiit is really impossible to say without knowing what the problem is

15:54:25wild_oscaron an ebay auction all the info I'll get is, of course, that it's not working and displays an unhappy face
15:54:39BigBambiWell, it is then impossible to say
15:55:06soapThe odds of Rockbox working on a faulty iPod are no greater than the odds of Apple's firmware working on a faulty iPod.
15:55:07wild_oscarBigBambi: does rockbox have a record of working on otherwise useless ipods?
15:55:12wild_oscaroh
15:55:26BigBambiwild_oscar: If it is a hardware problem, it won't be any difference
15:55:28wild_oscarthat was basically my question
15:55:36PaulJami think you can generally say, that when you can't make the apple firmware run, it's extremely unlikely that you'll be able to mae rockbox run
15:55:43BigBambiIf it isn't a hardware problem, then you should be able to get either to run
15:55:50 Quit xqtftqx (Client Quit)
15:56:11wild_oscarso if it's useless to the point of a person to sell it on ebay for 1 pound, it's probably really useles..
15:56:22soapAnd considering the number of guides out there - the odds of simple Apple firmware corruption being the cause of the unhappy face should be considered quite slim.

16:20:16JdGordonhmm... even adding one space is enough, so I guess || makes the code thing there is nothing to display... which probably makes sense
16:20:51Nico_Pyeah, one space should be enough
16:21:34Nico_Pmaybe post a comment saying that and close if the reporter responds saying it's working
16:22:39JdGordoni checked and it does work
16:22:43JdGordonclosed as wont fix...
16:30:14JdGordonanyone have an opiion on 8814 - restarting playback splash (en/disabling crossfade) doesnt clear itself which makes the player look like its frozen up... I want to remove the splash instead of trying to fix it....
16:33:56BigBambigevaerts: Incidently, I booted the ATMT using the Logik Dax firmware and it runs perfectly. They are completely identical

16:35:01BigBambigevaerts: The only unfortunate thing is it now won't boot from NAND, only USB - note this isn't a result of the Dax firmware, it is the result of me arsing up the soldering.
16:35:05pixelmaJdGordon: guess amiconn is the best to decide about this one...

16:36:46JdGordonLlorean: or, if it has to stay... can it be moved to the actual setting and changed to "playback needs to be restarted" so the menu will redraw it (might need a HZ/2 pause though to make it readable)?

20:46:15Reemohey guys, first i wanted to thank you for rockbox. Great fw, makes the X5 much faster. My question is related to the themes: Why do some of them look just crap on the X5, even if screenshot looks great? (e.g. HipodDark)? Are they broken?
20:47:43Nico_PReemo: theme compatibility was borken recently, so that may be the cause
20:47:49Nico_Pthemes need to be updated
20:48:10Reemo:) i already thought so, okay
20:53:01ReemoAh btw, isnt it possible (and probably better) to just toogle the icon of settings which are boolean rather than showing a Yes/No Window?

21:04:33PaulJamReemo: if i understand correctly the bootloader on x5 isn't aware of rtc alarm. so it might not work. but i wouldn't expect it do do any harm.
21:05:23Reemohmpf
21:06:21PaulJammaybe i'm wrong the last comment reads as if it wouldn't work, but earlier comments suggest that it actually works.
21:06:43amiconnMarcGuay: Regarding hardware poweroff and ipods - you can't force a hardware poweroff on ipods, just a hardware reset
21:07:14amiconnThat works for all ipods, but the button combo is different on 1st..3rd gen from the later ones
21:07:45amiconnOn 1st..3rd Gen it's Menu + Play, on the later ones it's Menu + Select
21:07:59PaulJamReemo: the best way to find out is probably to just try it.
21:08:54Reemojust did
21:10:44lolmausHey amiconn, are you going to further solve the ripple/blank screen issue on M3? I still can't use RockBox. Should i forget about it?

22:46:49amiconnThe buttons are mapped the way they should be in rockbox
22:48:26amiconnHonestly I have no idea why it doesn't work for you, or rather, how much slower it might need to be to fix it (and what part of the transfer needs to be slower)

22:50:15amiconnIt is for user's convenience...
22:52:07amiconnVol+ goes up, Vol- goes down. And due to the position the rocker switch is located at it feels quite natural to have it that way. It's almost like spinning a scroll wheel
