| 00:19:55 | Chronon | ipod: Just unzip it to the root of your iPod |
| 00:20:12 | ipod | ok |
| 00:20:17 | ipod | thats it |
| 00:20:37 | bertrik | I don't quite understand how often a battery measurement is logged |
| 00:20:57 | * | gevaerts wonders if there is a particular reason for that windows mtp thing to use uppercase filenames |
| 00:21:19 | bertrik | It seems there is a difference now depending on whether it's a flash target or not, with an apparent very long measurement interval for disk-based targets |
| 00:21:34 | mcuelenaere | gevaerts: no, that's just Visual Studio I suppose.. |
| 00:22:34 | bertrik | I wonder if simply taking a measurement (say) once a minute regardless of target being disk or flash would make more sense |
| 00:23:04 | gevaerts | mcuelenaere: ok. So if anyone cares, it can be changed I guess |

| 06:17:43 | SETH_HIKARU | and not all |
| 06:18:01 | soap | there are 115 people in here, your message is seen. People will answer when they can if they can, don't worry. |
| 06:18:36 | SETH_HIKARU | well it kinda sounds like nobody is talking because nothing is coming up on my screen |
| 06:18:48 | SETH_HIKARU | im just saying |
| 06:18:57 | soap | you're right, nobody is talking right now. |
| 06:19:24 | advcomp2019 | SETH_HIKARU, there is slow times on here |
| 06:19:34 | soap | It's 6 am in europe, 5 am in England, and midnight on the east coast of the USA. That's a large segment of the community asleep. |
| 06:19:53 | SETH_HIKARU | sooo whats uh... going on |
| 06:20:32 | SETH_HIKARU | this isnt the ipodlinux irc channel help is not volutay here otherwaise it would state that |
| 06:20:45 | SETH_HIKARU | *voluntary |
| 06:21:43 | cool_walking_ | 1. People are usually not *always* looking at the IRC window. 2. Not everyone knows the answer. 3. What do you mean not voluntary? The whole project is voluntary. |
| 06:21:52 | soap | I'm not sure I understand your last statement, or was that a question? We do have IRC guidelines, which not only explain what the rules are - but might help you understand the "culture" of the channel and the expectations. |
| 06:22:05 | shadoxx | How do I checkout svn? |
| 06:22:21 | soap | Please read the channel topic for a link to said guidelines as well as other useful information. |
| 06:22:30 | shadoxx | oh, duh |
| 06:22:36 | shadoxx | forgot about that. sorry |
| 06:22:36 | soap | sorry shadoxx, that was for SETH_HIKARU. |
| 06:22:41 | shadoxx | oh |
| 06:22:56 | cool_walking_ | shadoxx, do you have a dev environment set up already? |
| 06:23:13 | shadoxx | Well, you can compile rockbox on Linux right? |
| 06:23:27 | shadoxx | I figure I'll just apt-get whatever I don't have |
| 06:23:36 | cool_walking_ | Yes, provided you have the right tools installed. If you want to build for a target, you need the cross-compilers. |
| 06:23:40 | SETH_HIKARU | soap: im saying this isnt like the ipodlinux irc channel where help is voluntary there and i remembered i ignore a whole bunch of people who would have probably answer my question i first stated when i came it here |
| 06:23:41 | soap | shadoxx, http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/DocsIndex#For_Developers has everything you need. |
| 06:23:49 | shadoxx | ty soap |
| 06:24:19 | shadoxx | I found that someone else had already tried to start a port to the YH-820 |
| 06:24:34 | shadoxx | Apparently I need the tatung bootloader |
| 06:24:44 | soap | shadoxx, you are going to need to more than apt-get, you are also going to need to run the rockboxdev.sh script to build the cross-compilers. That being said that wiki index page I linked you should have everything you need. |
| 06:24:57 | shadoxx | kk |
| 06:25:40 | SETH_HIKARU | BigBambi: I have unignored you so you can answer my question now |
| 06:25:57 | soap | SETH_HIKARU, this channel is (in many ways) exactly like the ipodlinux channel. It is the same in that the projects are both all voluntary. It is different in that #rockbox is not for social chat. |
| 06:26:20 | SETH_HIKARU | that is if you are actually not idling like i think you are |

| 07:37:13 | jimmy1990 | yea |
| 07:37:26 | jimmy1990 | i dont get where the hell im supposed to put it |

| 07:38:17 | jimmy1990 | just the album name |

| 07:38:43 | jimmy1990 | yea |
| 07:38:56 | jimmy1990 | and they is 100x100 |
| 07:39:04 | jimmy1990 | i knew i had to do that |
| 07:39:13 | jimmy1990 | but now where do i put it |
| 07:39:31 | cool_walking_ | Does the album name exactly match the album name that is in the music files' metadata? |
| 07:39:39 | cool_walking_ | metadata = tags |
| 07:39:58 | jimmy1990 | hold on |
| 07:40:13 | jimmy1990 | sure does |
| 07:41:38 | cool_walking_ | Are you using a WPS that uses album art? |
| 07:41:55 | jimmy1990 | u mean the theme |
| 07:42:02 | cool_walking_ | Yes. FYI the default theme does support it. |
| 07:42:48 | jimmy1990 | i know i got aapodsvn |
| 07:43:22 | jimmy1990 | i just dont know where am i supposed to put the album art |
| 07:43:41 | cool_walking_ | It should be in the same folder as the music file. |
| 07:44:04 | jimmy1990 | well all my music is in the database |
| 07:44:21 | cool_walking_ | Yes, but it still has a physical location on the disk. |
| 07:44:38 | jimmy1990 | where is it |
| 07:44:54 | cool_walking_ | Did you put the music on via iTunes? |
| 07:45:21 | jimmy1990 | yea |
| 07:46:13 | cool_walking_ | Okay, then all the music will have munted filenames. You're going to have to put the covers in /.rockbox/albumart/ and name them artist-albumtitle.bmp |
| 07:46:42 | jimmy1990 | ok i will try |
| 07:48:17 | jimmy1990 | put it looking |
| 07:48:36 | cool_walking_ | huh? |
| 07:48:41 | jimmy1990 | still nothing |
| 07:49:02 | cool_walking_ | what is one of the filenames you've used? |
| 07:49:10 | cool_walking_ | for a cover? |
| 07:49:41 | jimmy1990 | Plies-My World.bmp |
| 07:51:49 | cool_walking_ | Hold on, i'm gonna test that filename pattern - I only ever used cover.bmp before. |

| 07:58:06 | jimmy1990 | do they have to b id3 |
| 07:58:29 | jimmy1990 | but all my shit is named right |
| 07:58:54 | cool_walking_ | No it doesn't have to be ID3, because I have OGGs |
| 07:59:28 | jimmy1990 | so then if worse comes to worse what am i going to haveta do |
| 07:59:55 | cool_walking_ | I don't have a tag editor installed to test that specific album/artist, but ".rockbox/albumart/Electric Wizard-Dopethrone.bmp" works fine |

| 08:08:19 | Buschel | wpyh: (for the logs) I still doubt your assumption about only HDD being the main factor for runtime diff between OF and RB on 5G |
| 08:09:12 | jimmy1990 | what do i gotta do to beable to get this to work |
| 08:09:28 | jimmy1990 | i like to have my album art on all my stuff |
| 08:09:28 | Buschel | wpyh: your OF-measurements shows that it uses average ~26.4mA, RB uses ~27.3mA. But you switched off the power supply for accessories −− the OF always enables this. |

| 08:09:57 | jimmy1990 | how do i do that |
| 08:10:06 | jimmy1990 | where is the simulator |
| 08:10:27 | Buschel | wpyh: so, there is at least a difference of ~0.9mA + 1.5mA (accessory supply) = 2.4mA which equals about 7MHz clock |

| 08:15:58 | jimmy1990 | idk how to use it |
| 08:16:19 | jimmy1990 | so what do i gotta do to get my album art displayed |
| 08:16:31 | Buschel | e.g. time updates will be necessary only once per second, not 5 times per second |
| 08:16:45 | cool_walking_ | jimmy1990, extract the zip archive somewhere, then do Start->Run-> "cmd". |
| 08:16:58 | Buschel | and the progress bar shall be drawn @5fps, but it doesn't need a full screen update |

| 10:28:05 | GodEater | yep |
| 10:28:11 | safetydan | Nico_P, yes. It would basically add the ability to execute .lua files on Rockbox. Very early days yet though |
| 10:28:41 | Nico_P | nice |
| 10:28:50 | k4y | is there any possibility of moving existing functionality over to Lua scripts? |
| 10:29:09 | k4y | (i mean, obviously it's still early, i was just wondering if there was a bigger plan) |
| 10:29:11 | GodEater | I'm not sure why you'd want to... |
| 10:29:30 | pixelma | wanted to ask the same |
| 10:29:45 | safetydan | my thoughts are mostly for plugin prototyping |
| 10:29:55 | k4y | i see |
| 10:30:12 | k4y | it would be cool if i could tweak builtin rockbox behaviour by twiddling/writing my own Lua scripts |
| 10:30:24 | safetydan | also as a way (if it's performant enough) to write some plugins |
| 10:30:24 | k4y | or extend rockbox that way too |
| 10:30:40 | pixelma | because we need more plugins... |

| 10:53:49 | safetydan | gevaerts, that would mean embedding sqlite in the lua viewer which would probably make the plugin too large to load |
| 10:54:20 | gevaerts | safetydan: then we'll just have to increase the plugin buffer size. This is too important! |

| 10:57:35 | Nico_P | safetydan: maybe it can be tuned down a bit |
| 10:57:51 | preglow | how big did lua end up? |
| 10:58:05 | | Quit MethoS_ (Success) |
| 10:58:24 | safetydan | preglow, don't know yet. It's only running in the sim. Allegedly it can be compiled in 63k |
| 10:58:32 | preglow | not bad |
| 10:58:42 | | Quit cool_walking_ (" ") |
| 10:59:15 | safetydan | Nico_P, I think the smallest sqlite can get is 160k though I could never get it that small |
| 11:00 |
| 11:01:16 | Nico_P | safetydan: IIRC with everything included it was ~250K (gevaerts?)... if you manage to get lua under 100K it's still OK, isn't it? |
| 11:01:45 | Nico_P | s/K/k |
| 11:01:52 | preglow | why is sqlite so important here? |
| 11:01:53 | safetydan | how big is the plugin buffer anyway? |
| 11:02:05 | preglow | half a meg, afaik |
| 11:02:16 | safetydan | preglow, every operating system needs a database right? |
| 11:02:32 | gevaerts | preglow: easy. A lot of people find sqlite useless, and a lot of people find lua useless, so the logical thing to do is to combine them :) |
| 11:02:39 | preglow | hahaha |
| 11:02:55 | preglow | i see more use for lua itself as a prototyping tool than anything else, and sqlite fits poorly then |
| 11:03:16 | lucent | gevaerts: sounds like the Top Gear synopsis for the Mazda RX-8 |

| 11:30:01 | safetydan | gevaerts, there was a suggestion for that floating around at one point... |
| 11:31:03 | gevaerts | If there are enough lua APIs, you could do all sorts of things, like playlist converters and generators |
| 11:32:28 | | Quit Thundercloud (Remote closed the connection) |
| 11:34:27 | safetydan | that's what I'm hoping might happen, especially since scripts are more easily shared than binaries |

| 11:35:58 | preglow | ... <- |
| 11:36:42 | gevaerts | We don't. The only thing that may be needed is extending the plugin API a bit |

| 14:08:46 | GodEater | mcuelenaere: the beast is saying "updating" |
| 14:08:53 | GodEater | but it's *still* saying that |
| 14:08:55 | webguest66 | for info, trying to locate flashing instructions on the wiki for Archos V1 is a excercise in frustration |
| 14:08:56 | GodEater | it seems to be taking too long |
| 14:09:22 | mcuelenaere | hmm just wait a bit, perhaps there is some minor difference in the process between the beast and the ZVM |
| 14:09:41 | * | GodEater thinks this took next to no time at all with the linux version |
| 14:10:00 | mcuelenaere | hmm so that means some debugging will be needed :( |
| 14:10:06 | GodEater | possibly =/ |
| 14:10:18 | mcuelenaere | too bad, I hoped it would've worked on the beast too |
| 14:10:20 | * | GodEater also wonders what he's going to do with his beast now... |

| 14:24:23 | GodEater | it just seems to not "finish" up the copy properly |

| 15:37:46 | Llorean | Why not just cache up to "as mush as the the remaining plugin buffer can hold"? |
| 15:38:03 | Llorean | Though it does seem unlikely you'd need that many |
| 15:39:02 | Llorean | *much |
| 15:39:15 | GodEater | Llorean: want to check out mcuelenaere's latest piece of work and make sure I wasn't just a fluke ? :) |
| 15:39:16 | bertrik | The old cache size was set at 16000 bytes, I didn't change that yet |
| 15:39:39 | bertrik | (each measurement is 16 bytes) |
| 15:40:43 | Llorean | bertrik: While unlikely, 1000 entries at 60 seconds per is a little less than 17 hours. I can imagine a full buffer containing more than that with some of the non-streaming formats in extremely rare cases, and it doesn't really hurt to use more plugin buffer. |

| 15:46:14 | Llorean | pixelma: The number of entries to cache |
| 15:47:48 | bertrik | the battery bench plugin itself is about 2k code, RAM use is dominated by the measurement cache |
| 15:49:22 | amiconn | bertrik: You could make it dynamic, and use plugin_get_buffer() |
| 15:49:39 | gevaerts | bertrik: maybe #define BUF_SIZE (PLUGIN_BUFFER_SIZE - 8192) ? 8K should be enough |
| 15:49:40 | Llorean | mcuelenaere: Vista-32: The Gigabeat's screen displayed "Updating" and the program reported success |
| 15:49:49 | amiconn | Ah, no scrap that |
| 15:50:13 | amiconn | A tsr plugin *must not* use plugin_get_buffer(). And it must not use up all plugin ram statically either |
| 15:50:19 | mcuelenaere | Llorean: no "Finishing"? |
| 15:51:01 | Llorean | mcuelenaere: It did that too. |
| 15:51:13 | mcuelenaere | Llorean: ah ok, so that means success? |
| 15:51:39 | Llorean | As far as I can tell, yes. |
| 15:51:44 | Llorean | Trying on 64-bit now |
| 15:51:45 | * | gevaerts thinks that Llorean should brick his beast first, just to be sure |
| 15:52:05 | bertrik | Ok, gevaerts' proposal sounds reasonable |
| 15:52:47 | amiconn | I'd rather stick to the 16k |
| 15:53:25 | mcuelenaere | amiconn: why can't you use all of the plugin RAM? |
| 15:53:32 | gevaerts | Maybe force a spinup if the buffer is full ? That would still give more meaningful results than stopping logging |
| 15:53:36 | * | Llorean apparently needs to install a windows update for his 64-bit machine to see it |
| 15:55:44 | amiconn | mcuelenaere: Normal plugins can, but tsr plugins must not do that. The core uses plugin_bet_buffer() itself for some things, e.g. for the playlist viewer |
| 15:56:25 | mcuelenaere | amiconn: so how do tsr plugins know how much RAM they can take? |
| 15:56:35 | mcuelenaere | is that decided at compile-time? |
| 15:57:08 | bertrik | gevaerts, what to do if the buffer is full is indeed an interesting question. I doubt that it happens often, 1000 entries is >16 hours with a 60s interval. |
| 15:57:18 | amiconn | Everything that's statically allocated is ok |
| 15:58:17 | Nico_P | spinning the disk sounds OK to me |
| 15:58:22 | amiconn | It might be though that if the remaining plugin buffer becomes too small (in the tsr plugin case), that core fieatures like the playlist viewer stop working. |
| 15:58:31 | petur | ugh... two sides borrowing memory from each other sounds like it needs some memory management/allocation system |
| 15:59:10 | Llorean | mcuelenaere: I can't test in Vista x64 because it seems to refuse to recognize my Gigabeat S in general. If I solve this, I'll let you know the results later. |
| 15:59:11 | Nico_P | the plugin buffer looks like a malloc pool IMHO |
| 15:59:19 | amiconn | The system works very well for normal (foreground) plugins, as a foreground plugin and the playlist veiwer cannot be active at the same time |
| 15:59:40 | mcuelenaere | Llorean: ok |
| 16:00 |
| 16:00:06 | Nico_P | the cuesheet viewer also uses the plugin buffer |
| 16:01:30 | petur | plus some things *are* implemented as plugins, like credits, properties,.. |
| 16:02:10 | bertrik | yes, indeed I noticed I could not view properties with battery bench active |
| 16:03:20 | Nico_P | has making the plugin buffer a pool for a basic form of malloc ever been considered? |
| 16:03:41 | gevaerts | What I would do is allocate PLUGIN_BUFFER_SIZE-32k, with a minimum of 16k. (change numbers according to taste) |

| 20:18:03 | leftright | MarcGuay: I think that the style that you employ for describing features, i.e like in http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/ArchosFAQ makes for a very cluttered, indistinct, and confusing way of decribing features |
| 20:18:37 | Strangelet | I have recently begun using Rockbox on an iPod Nano 1st gen. I am currently having trouble applying themes, could somebody point me towards a tutorial or FAQ section that could help me in this situation? |

| 20:26:37 | bertrik | maybe he also needs some fonts that are not part of the standard rockbox installation? |
| 20:28:15 | Strangelet | MarcGuay: Done and done, though I have noticed that the theme-defined interface for the now playing screen (the .wps I believe it is called) isn't shown for certain themes. What could potentially be the problem? And how could I fix this? |
| 20:29:21 | leftright | MarcGuay: and in several cases the description leans towards being condescending |

| 20:29:55 | MarcGuay | leftright: Sorry> |
| 20:29:58 | Strangelet | MarcGuay: Okay, odd thing I have noticed. I am looking in the '.rockbox' directory on my iPod. Some of the wps files are found to be X-executables, andsome are plain text |
| 20:29:59 | MarcGuay | *? |
| 20:30:06 | Strangelet | MarcGuay: I will follow that link |
| 20:30:41 | MarcGuay | Strangelet: That could be because Windows seems to make everything an executable, even text files. |
| 20:30:57 | Strangelet | MarcGuay: I am running ArchLinux :P |
| 20:31:16 | leftright | MarcGuay: no need to apologise, I thank you for what you're doing, just a small suggestion on mybehalf to perhaps make it better |
| 20:31:27 | Strangelet | Though your assumption has some grounds. xD |

| 20:33:40 | leftright | yes, I did make a entry which was simple and concise and you promptly changed it |
| 20:34:42 | leftright | you tend to flower statements instead of being precise and concise |
| 20:34:57 | MarcGuay | leftright: Ah, I see. Well you didn't phrase it as a question (it's a FAQ) and simply put a link, which isn't really very nice either. I was trying to be descriptive. |

| 22:13:41 | MarcGuay | delorean90: Try searching the internet for "c programming introduction" or similar... I'm sure there are tons of tutorial sites that can walk you through the basics. |

| 22:30:10 | delorean90 | this is all very confusing, about how long does it take to pick up? |
| 22:31:54 | bluebrother | depends. To _really_ learn programming forever −− you always find something to learn ;-) |
| 22:32:39 | bertrik | To be honest, I think it takes at least a year if you have no prior programming experience |
| 22:33:01 | delorean90 | thats what i assumed, hopefully theres a class in my high school i can take |
| 22:33:13 | bertrik | but you could also help with other things, like translations, manuals, themes, etc. |
| 22:33:16 | saratoga | probably took me two semesters before i got really comfortable with c in college |
| 22:33:28 | bluebrother | you can learn the basic usage of a programming language in about one week −− given that you already are kinda familiar with a similar language |
| 22:33:46 | bluebrother | but then that's only the basics. And for "real" programming you usually need a bit more |
| 22:34:50 | delorean90 | cool, i hope to really get involved and learn how the magic happens at rockbox ;) ive always been into computers, i just never learned about programming or even heard of it untill about 2 years ago |
| 22:34:52 | bluebrother | so I agree that one should consider one year of work |
| 22:35:29 | bluebrother | it's also kinda amazing how (not) many people know touch-typing. Also such a thing you only learn when doing it. |
| 22:35:52 | delorean90 | touch-typing? |
| 22:36:42 | bertrik | typing without looking at the keyboard I assume |
| 22:36:56 | * | bluebrother just was checking if the english term is correct |
| 22:37:13 | bluebrother | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Touch_typing |
| 22:37:23 | delorean90 | ohhh, makes sense haha |
| 22:37:49 | * | bluebrother needed 3 months to get used to the basics. |
| 22:39:00 | bluebrother | does anyone have an idea why I don't see _anything_ of my m200 on usb with flash disconnected? It should be in usb boot mode :( |
| 22:40:33 | bertrik | delorean90, as you use rockbox, you may find the odd bug here and there. It's very helpful to have people who can accurately report bugs and maybe can even have a look at the code themselves to get an idea where to look for the problem. |
| 22:40:57 | PaulJam | bluebrother: now that yu mentioned the manual in the other channel: i was wondering if the WPS tags topic is really needed. i mean people wanting to design a WPS are always sent to the CustomWPS page and the is qiute out of tate in that section. |
| 22:41:37 | PaulJam | *and the manual is qiute out of date in that section. |
| 22:41:42 | delorean90 | that would be awesome to help out with, so if i get the basics down i could look for bugs and such? |
| 22:41:49 | | Quit hannesd (Read error: 60 (Operation timed out)) |
| 22:42:07 | MarcGuay | PaulJam: I agree. There are a few things that need to be decided whether they belong in the wiki or the manual (plugins are dupped as well). |
| 22:42:20 | MarcGuay | *duped? |
| 22:42:31 | bluebrother | I think it's duped ;-) |
| 22:42:40 | *** | Saving seen data "./dancer.seen" |
| 22:43:02 | MarcGuay | bluebrother: USB boot mode is subtle. I see very little in windows with the c100 connected. |
| 22:43:07 | bluebrother | but I somewhat like the tags being in the manual −− it's more "static". Unfortunately the people changing the wps parser usually forget to update the manual :( |
| 22:43:43 | bluebrother | MarcGuay: do you have an advice for me? From reading the wiki I should only need to disconnect the flash and plug the player to the PC |
| 22:44:05 | bluebrother | and btw, I'm on linux. Tried on wxp too, no difference. |
| 22:45:41 | MarcGuay | bluebrother: No experience with the m200. How are you looking for it? On Windows I only see it in Device Manager as a "LIbUSB-Win32 Device"... And that's after installing the tcctool driver... Maybe that's what you're missing? |
| 22:46:24 | bluebrother | well, the system should find an unknown usb device and tell me about it in the syslog. But there's no trace about it |
| 22:46:50 | bluebrother | and even on w32, without the libusb filter driver installed it should detect some unknown usb device afaik. |
| 22:47:13 | MarcGuay | bluebrother: That's true... Maybe wait for lambdacalculus... |
| 22:47:30 | pixelma | speaking of WPS tags in the manual, I wondered what to do with some tags not present on the charcell Player or things like the RTC related tags in non-RTC target manuals, or the backdrop tag - disable them when not possible on the target or leave them in case people study different WPSs? |
| 22:47:40 | MarcGuay | bluebrother: Or get a c100! :) |

| 22:48:52 | bluebrother | you need to compile it. |
| 22:49:10 | delorean90 | so i just type it in and hit enter? |
| 22:49:23 | bluebrother | but as this is not really rockbox related please use a different channel. You can find some guys from here in #rockbox-community ... |
| 22:49:52 | delorean90 | ok thankyou |
