| 01:37:25 | saratoga | interestingly, only half the speed up from the Tremor IMDCT is due to ASM, the rest is just a better algorithm |

| 01:43:24 | delorean90 | would this be the proper place to discuss new ports? or should i stick to rockbox-community? |
| 01:43:39 | Llorean | Community is for non-Rockbox stuff. |
| 01:44:04 | webguest69 | whats the new port |
| 01:44:29 | saratoga | Llorean: definately AAC |
| 01:44:29 | delorean90 | its not a port yet, but the sansa view |
| 01:44:44 | saratoga | AAC-LC and WMA are practically the same thing |
| 01:46:35 | saratoga | the View is an interesting target because of the Nvidia-PP chipset |
| 01:46:37 | webguest69 | anywere i can buy an ipod video localy you think |
| 01:46:49 | webguest69 | i mean what kind of store would have one |
| 01:47:07 | saratoga | however, unless you can get a team of very interested hackers, or a datasheet from Nvidia, I think it would be a very difficult port |
| 01:47:17 | webguest69 | Becasue i need a new ipod by midnight and it has to be hacable |
| 01:47:21 | webguest69 | hackable |
| 01:47:39 | saratoga | the PP targets, on which the chipset used in the View is apparently based, have been under development for many years now and are only just now becoming well supported |
| 01:48:09 | Llorean | webguest69: The only stores that are likely to have one are pawn-shops and non-chains. |

| 01:50:07 | dataangel | What's the difference between plugin_get_buffer and malloc? Do you use it like you would malloc? |
| 01:50:28 | stripwax | it's a static buffer |
| 01:50:36 | saratoga | i think plugin_get_buffer just gives you a pointer to the entire audio buffer |
| 01:50:41 | bluebrother | there is no malloc in Rockbox, so there is no difference ;-) |
| 01:52:47 | dataangel | is the app in charge of keeping track of how much of the buffer its used? |
| 01:53:03 | dataangel | the comment says it returns how much is left... do plugins get a set amount to start or ... ? |
| 01:53:23 | saratoga | the amount available depends on how much ram you have |
| 01:53:58 | dataangel | what determines how much a plugin gets though? |
| 01:54:00 | * | dataangel digs around plugin.c |
| 01:54:18 | Llorean | It's kinda all or none. |
| 01:54:31 | Llorean | You either don't use the audio buffer, or you stop playback and use all of it. |
| 01:54:53 | bluebrother | well, you don't need to use all of it. You get all :) |
| 01:54:56 | dataangel | gothca |
| 01:55:18 | dataangel | my app needs to play audio anyway |
| 01:55:31 | bluebrother | then you can't get the audio buffer. |
| 01:55:51 | Llorean | Well |
| 01:56:01 | Llorean | Depends on what he means. |
| 01:56:16 | Llorean | If he's playing audio within the app itself, as in the app is doing the playing, the buffer's his to do with as he pleases. |
| 01:56:16 | dataangel | it plays like 3 second sound files every few seconds |
| 01:56:33 | dataangel | yeah |
| 01:56:44 | bluebrother | Llorean: right. I assumed playing back means using the playback engine. |
| 01:57:14 | dataangel | hrm, actually there's plugin_get_buffer and plugin_get_audio_buffer |
| 01:58:25 | | Quit webguest69 ("CGI:IRC (EOF)") |
| 01:58:27 | * | Llorean is not at all familiar with the specific function names. |
| 01:58:41 | Llorean | I would hazard that one gets space from the plugin buffer, and the other from the audio buffer, then? |
| 01:58:46 | dataangel | so plugin_get_buffer gets some amount specific to yer player, determined by PLUGIN_BUFFER_SIZE, and then there's the separate audio buffer |
| 01:59:23 | dataangel | at a glance I don't see a way to tell the api that you're using any of the plugin buffer though, which is why I'm curious if you manage it yourself |
| 02:00 |
| 02:00:09 | * | dataangel should just shutup and read more source code ;p |
| 02:00:09 | Llorean | dataangel: Tell it you're using it for when you do what? |
| 02:00:27 | dataangel | Llorean: So if you call it again later with a different size it can determine whether anything is left |
| 02:00:55 | dataangel | err, I see size parameter is to request, not to find out how big what you got back is |
| 02:02:00 | dataangel | err, no it's just what's left if whole buffer... meh need to read |
| 02:04:19 | Llorean | bluebrother: I know it used to be outside the folder, I remember when it changed. I just meant that he needs to be looking in it since he's using rbutil. :) |
| 02:04:42 | Llorean | He's updating the bootloader anyway, or trying to. |
| 02:05:23 | saratoga | ok sounds like I fixed the audio skipping problem |
| 02:05:52 | saratoga | (forgot to convert between the vorbis and wma fixed point formats) |
| 02:07:12 | bluebrother | Llorean: I'm sure you're aware of that. Just wanted to point out that there was a change (as he said he hasn't updated in like 4 years) |
| 02:07:41 | bluebrother | 4 years ... that needs to be sometime in the early stages of the h100 port. Wonder why he never updated in between. |
| 02:07:43 | stripwax | lame_128 - 209% realtime, vorbis_128 - 253% realtime. curiously, above 96kbps, mp3 doesn't seem to scale so much with bitrate unlike vorbis (lame_256 is 199.8% realtime, vorbis_256 is 215%) |
| 02:08:41 | saratoga | stripwax: I've been wondering about that too |
| 02:08:44 | bluebrother | anyway, time for sleep now, it's quite late here. Just wanted to finish the translation update, but unfortunately the previous lupdate gave me a nice bunch of conflicts :( |
| 02:08:54 | | Quit bluebrother ("sleep. now.") |
| 02:08:54 | saratoga | theres no good reason for that to happen |
| 02:09:39 | saratoga | stripwax: are you interested in codec optimization? |
| 02:10:03 | stripwax | somewhat |
| 02:10:31 | stripwax | I'm interested in performance per watt |
| 02:11:17 | saratoga | the synth + DCT functions in synth.c use up ~50% of the entire codec runtime for 192k mp3, and they should be completely invariant with changing bitrate |
| 02:11:28 | * | mrkiko restarts it's brain |
| 02:11:43 | saratoga | you could try commenting them out and benching that 96k file again |
| 02:11:53 | | Quit ender` (" Intelligence is the ability to avoid doing work, yet getting the work done. -- Linus Torvalds") |
| 02:12:11 | saratoga | might be interesting to see where all that improvement in CPU time really comes from |
| 02:13:36 | saratoga | anyone object to me leaving the old WMA IMDCT in but ifdefed out in case anyone ever wants it again? |
| 02:14:01 | Llorean | saratoga: It'll be in the SVN history anyway, right? |
| 02:14:08 | stripwax | not sure I understand - comment out what part exactly? or does 96kbps not need synth and dct? |
| 02:14:36 | | Quit culture (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)) |
| 02:14:38 | saratoga | stripwax: if you comment out parts of the decoder and benchmark, you can see how much time the codec spent in those functions |
| 02:15:01 | saratoga | LLorean: thats a good point |
| 02:16:00 | saratoga | example: codec runs at 200% with everything enabled, commenting out synthfull and dct32 raises you to 400% realtime, this means that the codec spent 50% of its time in those two functions |
| 02:16:13 | stripwax | saratoga - that would only work for the parts after bitstream but I see your point. Would be better to get the profiling build working though |
| 02:16:32 | saratoga | stripwax: it should work for any part of the codec |
| 02:16:57 | saratoga | you can decode a blank buffer just as easily as a full one |
| 02:17:30 | stripwax | but then you're decoding a blank buffer and/or just testing error paths on garbage buffers .. that won't help you determine anything |
| 02:17:59 | stripwax | A profile build should be easier |
| 02:18:27 | saratoga | a profile build would be easier if we knew how to make one |

| 02:31:16 | stripwax | has |

| 02:33:57 | Strife89 | I use the /.rockbox/albumart storage method |
| 02:34:23 | saratoga | if arm profiling coudl be made to work, that'd be awesome |
| 02:34:30 | Llorean | I thought it used the same method of retrieving Album Art as the WPS did. |
| 02:34:43 | Strife89 | Evidently, not all of them. :( |
| 02:35:01 | stripwax | saratoga - I didn't realise it didn't work! |
| 02:35:15 | Llorean | Strife89: Well, I thought it was just one function that was called |

| 02:36:05 | Strife89 | Llorean: I wouldn't know about that; I still can't read much C. |
| 02:37:05 | stripwax | the profiling bug I know of is that it will create a profile.out regardless of whether or not profile.out already exists - not looked at the code for that but it seems to create directory multiple entries with the same name, which causes havoc with my laptop OS when I reconnect it. so need to delete profile.out before rerunning a codec |

| 03:57:33 | soap | Llorean, JdGordon is not here to defend himself, so I in no way wish to attempt to write the definitive scripture, but I am curious as to what your opinion is regarding my decision to limit the sharing of "corrected" .wps files on the forums. As I am sure you are well aware the WPSs in question were ones originally posted by PHK, and had no expressed license attached, thereby (to the best of my understanding) being All Rights Reserved. JdGordon thought |
| 03:57:33 | soap | I went too far in my clamping action, and while my heart agrees with him my head is having trouble. |
| 03:57:49 | | Quit Thundercloud (Remote closed the connection) |
| 03:58:09 | * | JdGordon is here |
| 03:58:22 | JdGordon | i didnt say you went to far... just that I think its rediculous |
| 03:58:51 | Llorean | soap: Rationally, I don't think we can be lenient on this one. If a theme isn't licensed as modifiable, people can't post updated versions. |
| 03:59:10 | Llorean | If you start acting like there's a gray area, people are going to argue about it to no end regarding other things. |
| 03:59:24 | soap | ok, then, JdGordon - perhaps I misunderstood you. I thought you called my actions ridiculous. |
| 03:59:27 | Llorean | It's one of the few parts of enforcement we can actually be objective on. |
| 03:59:53 | Ice`` | Llorean: VLC is illegal in france because of the law I told you about... |
| 04:00 |
| 04:00:02 | JdGordon | soap: no, I meant copywrite on that text... |
| 04:00:15 | Ice`` | I think that it will be the same with rockbox. |
| 04:00:21 | Llorean | Ice``: VLC can use decss to playback copy-protected DVDs, among other things, I assume. |
| 04:00:29 | JdGordon | it was just in reference to your message |
| 04:01:07 | soap | You think it is ridiculous to apply copyright to the .wps file? |
| 04:01:28 | JdGordon | yes |
| 04:01:51 | Ice`` | Llorean: yes, it can. But it's just a question of time before rockbox will be declared illegal. |
| 04:02:12 | Ice`` | Rockbox is done by reversing firmwares, and, THIS, is illegal. |
| 04:02:31 | soap | what about /firmware/events.c |
| 04:02:33 | Llorean | Ice``: Actually, a large portion of Rockbox is done by using freely available datasheets |
| 04:02:43 | Llorean | It doesn't require in any way the presence of the original firmware on the device. |
| 04:02:46 | Ice`` | Large != entire. |
| 04:02:56 | soap | ignore the header and it is shorter than many .wps files, and arguably contains less creative content. |
| 04:03:03 | JdGordon | Ice``: so when that happens, we'll stop distrobuting in france, and have a massive effort to covertly get the fe french devs out of the country :) |
| 04:03:12 | Llorean | Ice``: Depends on the player. But if this is true, Linux is illegal in France too, for the same reason. |
| 04:03:38 | ze | Llorean: why linux? |
| 04:03:39 | Ice`` | Llorean: You know, these technical arguments may be right, the juge could condamn rockbox anyway. |
| 04:03:43 | Llorean | JdGordon: WPS files fall under copyright protection in the same way bitmap images, lyrics, or any creative work. |
| 04:03:53 | * | gevaerts wants to know since when reverse engineering is illegal |
| 04:04:04 | Llorean | Ice``: There's nothing you can do to stop that, and no reason to worry about it since there's nothing to be done about it then. |
| 04:04:07 | Ice`` | JdGordon: I'll do my best to get out of that shithole. |
| 04:04:11 | JdGordon | soap: yes, I see your point.. but imo its silly |
| 04:04:14 | Llorean | ze: Plenty of drivers in it are reverse engineered. |
| 04:04:22 | Ice`` | Llorean: Linux will be declared illegal too. |
| 04:04:25 | ze | Llorean: really? why do so many go through clean room then |
| 04:04:39 | Ice`` | VLC already is illegal, even the source code is |
| 04:04:41 | Llorean | JdGordon: Unfortunately, silly or not, we need to kinda be all-or-nothing in terms of copyright on the forums |
| 04:04:52 | Llorean | ze: "Clean Room" isn't valid in all jurisdictions. |
| 04:04:59 | ze | crappy :/ |
| 04:05:02 | Llorean | Ice``: I don't care about VLC. |
| 04:05:03 | Ice`` | A friend of mine is working for gsoc on vlc player |
| 04:05:09 | Llorean | VLC doesn't matter here, really |
| 04:05:17 | Ice`` | and he risks 300k E and prison to work on it. |
| 04:05:46 | soap | JdGordon, I'll agree that slapping someone for posting a helpful fix to an abandoned .wps file feels stupid as tits on a bull, and strongly feel it is a perfect example of the unreasonable results which can occur by taking only reasonable steps - BUT all that being said I don't believe it is in anybody's best interest to do otherwise. |
| 04:06:05 | Ice`` | Llorean: I understood that you are "rigid" with the chan subject and I respect this. But it was to illustrate what I said. |
| 04:06:31 | ze | what about a patch? |
| 04:06:48 | soap | THOUGH (and Ll will probably have more problems with this than most) there is a strong case to be made for respecting the ideal of "reasonable" and ignoring a case exactly like this because they are reasonable. |
| 04:06:59 | soap | s/they are/it is/ |
| 04:07:06 | ze | doesn't break copyright mere to distribution instructions for someone to mod it themselves (no distribution of the copyrighted code) does it? |
| 04:07:31 | Ice`` | In no time, frenchmen will go in jail for breakin' a device, authorities pretexting "reverse engeenering" at any clumsiness... |
| 04:07:33 | Llorean | soap: My problem with that is that, while I definitely agree these fixes are reasonable, we can't leave copyright up to interpretation without leaving ourselves open to other arguments later. |
| 04:08:58 | soap | My solution is simple (if not too late): pound the idea into people's heads that they need to expressly state a license from day one. |
| 04:09:03 | Llorean | Yes |
| 04:09:08 | JdGordon | then we shuold force all themes to have redistrobution rights on everything, and modification rights on all the text (better would be just force a CC licence on everything) |
| 04:09:15 | Llorean | And our new theme site will require a license that allows modification (and thus fixing) anyway, I believe. |
| 04:09:33 | Llorean | I though a CC-by-SA was planned as a requirement for themes on the new site anyway |
| 04:09:37 | soap | I agree 100% - do we have /any/ right to retroactively force a license:? |
| 04:09:49 | Llorean | I wish we did. |
| 04:10:06 | Llorean | If we had a license on the wiki, all themes would already be licensed. |
| 04:11:28 | ze | even if you just considered themes as part of rockbox code base they'd at least be automatically GPL wouldn'tthey? :p |
| 04:11:39 | soap | MarcGuary has been waist-deep in the wiki for months now. Perhaps we should lock him in a room and have him write a replacement wiki from scratch and license it properly. ;) |
| 04:11:41 | ze | again, too late and unoptimal for this point |
| 04:12:14 | Llorean | ze: Can't really do that though. They're not derivative works, otherwise, for example, bitmaps would be derivative works of Windows Paint or whatever. |
| 04:12:22 | Llorean | soap: Good plan! |
| 04:12:36 | ze | Llorean: well, they use functions provided by the code.. |
| 04:12:48 | ze | Llorean: its more akin to use of a library than a program |
| 04:12:50 | Llorean | No, they don't |
| 04:13:02 | Llorean | They're a text file interpreted by the code. |
| 04:13:11 | Llorean | Otherwise bash scripts would fall under the same license as bash itself. |
| 04:14:39 | ze | yeah i suppose the copyright on the particular design arrangement trumps the functional tokens anyway |
| 04:14:51 | ze | in a sense |
| 04:15:55 | Llorean | soap, JdGordon: fortunately, this whole thing should be resolved with the new theme site, where we can not only force a license, but since we have, script updates to themes when possible |
| 04:16:20 | JdGordon | yeah, but that site could still be 2 years away... |
| 04:17:26 | soap | with the recent commits, how much more is the WPS syntax expected to change in the next 12 months? Multifont is possibly on the horizon, but what else? |
| 04:17:32 | ze | whats wrong with suitable stopgap updates for the current site if the new ones gonna take long? |
| 04:17:44 | JdGordon | multifont wont break compatibility |
| 04:17:51 | JdGordon | but nothing else is "Extected" |
| 04:17:56 | JdGordon | expected even |
| 04:18:28 | JdGordon | but then again.. had you asked that 2 months ago you'd have got the same answer |
| 04:18:33 | soap | well, I know unexpected things can come up - but I'm not sure what WPS ideas are in place now which weren't at least discussed 12 months prior to implementation. |
| 04:18:48 | | Quit dabujo (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)) |
| 04:18:49 | soap | (and I'm sure you do) |
| 04:20:10 | JdGordon | also, its not always clear if a change being discussed will need to break anything... %p,%P were only changed because it turned out we had to, not because we wanted to |
| 04:20:31 | JdGordon | but yeah, the syntax should be stable for the next while now |
| 04:21:42 | * | JdGordon goes to have breakfast, and then... continue in his search to make DB playlists resumable |
| 04:22:37 | soap | I thought you were going to be punitive ;) |
| 04:23:32 | ze | Llorean: so if some random stranger reverses something and writes a doc, and then i wrote a driver based on info in the doc, my driver would be illegal in france anyway? |
| 04:23:57 | | Quit jhulst_ (Read error: 60 (Operation timed out)) |
| 04:24:07 | Llorean | ze: Dunno, I'm not familiar with the law |
| 04:24:25 | ze | Llorean: on the other hand i suppose companies would get away with anyway because they'll do all their reversing in secret :p |
| 04:24:34 | ze | so its just opensource that suffers |
| 04:26:20 | ze | so what if nobody fessed up to reversing anything and there wasn't a way to prove something was based on knowledge gained from a reverse engineer... |
| 04:26:37 | ze | how could they enforce it? |
| 04:26:40 | Llorean | ze: When has a lack of evidence stopped a determined law suit? |

| 04:27:26 | soap | Horribly off topic now, but proof is irrelevant. All you need is the law banning it so you have pretense to strategically sue. |
| 04:27:26 | ze | well if you're just gonna aknowledge the system's fundamentally broken and wrong, then whats anything matter, it all becomes arbitrary and meaningless |
| 04:27:58 | ze | but yeah sorry, was just curious... consider it dropped by me |

| 04:30:02 | ellomates | ? |
| 04:30:25 | ellomates | okay ill take that as a yes |
| 04:30:30 | soap | yes - I was trying to smartassedly answer your question regarding Rockbox and the Classic. ;) |
| 04:31:02 | ellomates | anyway how the hell do these things get cracked i mean what do they do to get in there with the code |
| 04:31:22 | ellomates | I know how to code game hacks but ipods just confound me |
| 04:31:22 | Llorean | Differs from player to player. |
| 04:31:39 | Llorean | Nobody can really provide you with step by step instructions, it's something that requires someone clever to figure all the right things ous |
| 04:31:41 | Llorean | out |
| 04:31:51 | ellomates | differs from player brand to player brand or indivudal player to player |
| 04:32:20 | Llorean | Individual player |
| 04:32:25 | ellomates | or is it there are big diffrences between brands and smaller difrences between players |
| 04:32:34 | soap | a game hack is easy in that you can modify the binary and your PC will happily run the modified binary. The iPod Classic will most likely not run modified code. |
| 04:32:52 | ellomates | yes it is soap yes it is |
| 04:33:09 | ellomates | yah i doubt it will too |
| 04:33:20 | ellomates | or they would have some more work done bye know |
| 04:33:26 | ellomates | by |
| 04:33:55 | ellomates | like how do they even begin seeing code |
| 04:34:55 | ellomates | dont you love pirating stuff and stealing from all companies using google |
| 04:35:11 | ellomates | sorry that was just something i type to see if my chat is monitered |
| 04:35:12 | soap | no, and Rockbox has nothing to do with pirating |
| 04:35:17 | ellomates | i know |
| 04:35:21 | Llorean | ellomates: Again something else they have to figure out: Where is the firmware on the player, and how do I get my hands on it? |
| 04:35:32 | Llorean | ellomates: Any more talk of pirating, at all, in any manner, and I'll ban you. |
| 04:35:47 | ellomates | mabye i f we took it apart and went straight at the hardrive |
| 04:35:54 | Llorean | We do actually respect copyright here. |
| 04:36:10 | ellomates | does anyone know were i can find a gallery of the insides of one a classic |
| 04:36:21 | ellomates | I respect copyright |
| 04:36:45 | ellomates | I just sayed that for .. well no real reason but... well does it really matter why... |
| 04:37:02 | ellomates | btw a gallery insides |
| 04:37:32 | ellomates | anyone |
| 04:37:34 | ellomates | ? |
| 04:37:50 | Llorean | ellomates: Please don't do that. |
| 04:38:03 | Llorean | If someone has the answer to your question, they'll answer it. You don't need to repeat it over a short period. |
| 04:38:24 | Llorean | For really basic things such as this, though, you should probably spend some time with Google, or see if anything has been posted to the Rockbox wiki |

| 11:54:42 | Slasheri | JdGordon: morning :) |
| 11:56:33 | JdGordon | Slasheri: hey, (hope im not getting too iritating...) these stuct variable names arnt helping... I tihnk I've sort of figured it out... Is the csi linked to the menus at all? I mean if I change the csi how does the browser know whicih "file" to select? |
| 11:57:21 | JdGordon | It seems to me that if its changed by something other than tagtree_enter/exit, the browser would show the files properly, but get lost if you try backing out of the curent search? |
| 11:58:33 | Slasheri | JdGordon: yes, each menu entry is linked to a search instruction |
| 11:59:31 | JdGordon | so if the csi is changed, the browser should figure it out safely next reload? |
| 12:00 |
| 12:00:39 | Slasheri | yep, it should affect the next results from the tagcache query |
| 12:01:08 | Slasheri | csi keeps all levels of queries for a single root menu entry |
| 12:01:36 | | Join desowin [0] (n=desowin@atheme/member/desowin) |
| 12:03:02 | JdGordon | ok, now what would happen if a csi was loaded which didnt have a menu assosicated with it? i.e tagnavi changed between boots and the saved csi wasnt reloaded from the config? |
| 12:04:48 | Slasheri | hmm, it should be just ignored then if there are no links to that csi entry from menu_entry |
| 12:05:40 | JdGordon | but it could still generate a playlist from it? |
| 12:06:22 | Slasheri | yep, it should be able to do that just fine |
| 12:06:23 | * | JdGordon wants to dump the csi into .playlist_control as text so playlists could be rebuilt as easily as dirplay |
| 12:06:32 | Slasheri | hehe, nice idea |
| 12:07:25 | | Quit Guest86027 (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)) |
| 12:07:39 | JdGordon | would it work? |
| 12:09:14 | Slasheri | i don't see why it wouldn't, as long as you write some handlers for it in the tagtree |
| 12:09:50 | JdGordon | that would be much nicer than adding each track individually |
| 12:10:01 | Slasheri | your "playlist csi" could be for example one static instance of search_instruction which you assign to csi-pointer and then populate the playlist |
| 12:10:05 | Slasheri | i think that should work |
| 12:10:26 | Slasheri | hmm |
| 12:10:29 | JdGordon | its going to be annoying to write the parser for it though :p |
| 12:10:39 | Slasheri | you mean playlist.c would read the csi? |
| 12:10:45 | Slasheri | hehe |
| 12:11:05 | JdGordon | no, I'd do it in tagtree to keep it all there |

| 12:13:52 | JdGordon | Slasheri: format_id is the only variable in that struct which actually needs to be "synced" with tagnavi right? but isnt needed to just rebuild the playlist? |
| 12:14:02 | JdGordon | nor is name? |

| 12:16:37 | Slasheri | JdGordon: format_id is only used for sorting (iirc) |
| 12:16:45 | Slasheri | so you could ignore that in the code |
| 12:17:07 | Slasheri | or hmm, maybe you couldn't.. |
| 12:17:18 | Slasheri | if you don't want the playlist be unsorted |
| 12:18:11 | JdGordon | that is an index into the saved forus from tagnavi idsnt it? |
| 12:18:24 | Slasheri | of course format_id also defines the format of titles and so on displayed in the browser but for playlist the only function of it is the sorting |
| 12:18:39 | Slasheri | yes |
| 12:19:03 | Slasheri | it's an index to the display_format struct |
| 12:19:18 | JdGordon | hmm, might be extra stuff to store then :( |
| 12:19:30 | JdGordon | although, how often would tagnavi change? |
| 12:19:38 | JdGordon | probably not enough to worry about |
| 12:19:59 | JdGordon | also.. whats the result_seek array? |
| 12:21:09 | Slasheri | iirc, that contains the tagcache index to the last selected object (so that filters can be applied on the next level) |
| 12:21:48 | JdGordon | do I need to worry about it? |
| 12:23:10 | Slasheri | hmm, probably that much that you need to populate them for the every level of csi |
| 12:23:35 | Slasheri | and then you can run the final query after you have ran all of the previous level queries |

| 12:29:54 | JdGordon | yep, I keep getting back to that. |
| 12:30:09 | JdGordon | not quite sure about rebuilding that result_Seek array |
| 12:30:55 | Slasheri | basically that retrieve_entries functions does all the work of parsing the csi and storing those values |
| 12:31:17 | Slasheri | even when adding tracks to the playlist, results are retrieved by using the retrieve_entries |

| 12:43:56 | Slasheri | clauses are those expressions made on numeric tags |
| 12:44:34 | Slasheri | and basically filters are built from the result_seek array when advancing to next level |

| 12:46:41 | JdGordon | normally, it will only be filters though? |
| 12:47:02 | Slasheri | it depends on the query, what's defined in the tagnavi.config |
| 12:48:10 | JdGordon | simplest case is just store the filters order and the name of the item instead of the result_seek... then to rebuild just put the filters back in, call retrieve_entries and loop untill we find the result_Seek index for the item we named? |

| 14:49:44 | stripwax | although I don't know what "dw" means, so if it means "don't worry", you can ignore me |
| 14:49:58 | JdGordon | yes :) dont worry |
| 14:50:01 | bluebrother | apart from that I can't tell you much about that setting ... |
| 14:50:17 | JdGordon | i thought it was make checkwps in tools... turns out there is a checkwps folder :p |
| 14:50:20 | HauDyr | hello i just upgraded to a new build and my wps screen that worked fine on the old build is now broken how can i find out where in the wps file the error is ? |
| 14:50:20 | Nico_P | bluebrother: where is the help text? you mean using −−help? |
| 14:50:28 | bluebrother | dw sounds like some stupid hungarian notation variable prefix to me :/ |
| 14:50:33 | stripwax | hah |
| 14:50:43 | bluebrother | Nico_P: yes. |
| 14:50:54 | gevaerts | bluebrother: 'double wps' ? |

| 14:51:01 | stripwax | if i'm not allowed to say "wffm" in this channel, I think "dw" should definitely go too.. :) |
| 14:51:08 | bluebrother | "rbspeexenc expects a mono 16 bit WAV file as input. Files will be resampled to either 16 kHz by default, or 8 kHz if narrowband mode is enabled." |
| 14:51:21 | bluebrother | wffm? What's that? |
| 14:51:26 | stripwax | HauDyr - you can use "checkwps"! |
| 14:51:39 | stripwax | bluebrother - "works fine for me", which I thought was in pretty univeral usage |
| 14:51:41 | bluebrother | checkwps is currently broken ... |
| 14:51:50 | HauDyr | bluebrother, heh |
| 14:51:51 | pixelma | bluebrother: now I am |
| 14:52:22 | bluebrother | pixelma: nice. I'm wondering how to translate "build" to german. That's mostly the unfinished translations in rbutil |
| 14:52:28 | HauDyr | bluebrother, then how do i fix checkwps :-) |
| 14:52:35 | * | JdGordon is fixing it |
| 14:52:51 | bluebrother | apart from that (as I reworked it rather completely) I'd be interested if you think the current way is good or not |
| 14:52:51 | HauDyr | cool |
| 14:54:11 | pixelma | bluebrother: good question, no idea. I usually talk about builds myself, even in German... :\ |
| 14:55:29 | bluebrother | hmm. Sounds somewhat "user-incompatible" to me. |
| 14:56:29 | pixelma | I know... just translate it as "Version" ? |
| 14:56:34 | gevaerts | bluebrother: Gebäude ? |

| 14:57:18 | pixelma | gevaerts: wouldn't that be "building"? |
| 14:58:42 | bluebrother | why don't we have a swedish translation for rbutil btw? |
| 14:59:03 | gevaerts | pixelma: possibly. I think that "build" as a noun is not very clean anyway |

| 15:38:13 | * | amiconn ponders making the usage of a backdrop (on greyscale & colour lcds) part of the drawmode |
| 15:39:16 | Nico_P | JdGordon: I think it should be marked as related to the real bug before being closed |
| 15:39:18 | amiconn | This would simplify the drawing code, and would also allow per-viewport selection of backdrop usage (if one is set) |
| 15:39:34 | pixelma | bluebrother: got a manual question. There is currently a "Getting Extras" paragraph which only talks about where to download the fonts package which of course doesn't apply to the charcell Player, and its manual currently looks like this: http://download.rockbox.org/manual/rockbox-player/rockbox-buildch10.html#x13-16300010.1.1 |
| 15:40:32 | pixelma | should the whole "Getting Extras" part be disabled there or a sentence that there are no extras available - or even something else? |
| 15:40:56 | JdGordon | Nico_P: which task was the real bug? |
| 15:41:05 | Nico_P | I added it |
| 15:41:33 | JdGordon | ah ok, im too slow :) |
| 15:41:48 | JdGordon | amiconn: yeah, that would be good. |
| 15:42:36 | * | gevaerts thinks the ideas in http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=17540.msg129176#msg129176 could be nice |
| 15:42:51 | bluebrother | pixelma: looks nice :) Well, I'm not 100% sure −− following the way the manual is done the paragraph should get removed. OTOH it might be helpful for new users if there it's explicitly mentioned that there are no extras for those player. |
| 15:42:52 | amiconn | The backdrop would still cover the whole screen, but some viewports would replace it by the bg colour in their area |
| 15:43:01 | Nico_P | JdGordon: I closed the task |
| 15:43:15 | bluebrother | but I think I prefer removing the whole paragraph |
| 15:44:35 | amiconn | JdGordon: Problem is that if I change it that way, backdrops would disappear until all other code is adapted |
| 15:44:54 | amiconn | I can prepare it though, so that the drawmode always includes backdrop usage if one is set |
| 15:45:09 | | Quit Guest41370 (Connection timed out) |
| 15:45:32 | JdGordon | isnt there a STYLE_DEFAULT mode? just set that to show the backdrop? |
| 15:45:47 | JdGordon | which is a ensible default anyway |
| 15:46:04 | amiconn | That one isn't drawmode related at all |
| 15:47:50 | pixelma | bluebrother: I also think that the introduction which is there for all the other manuals is too font "centric", it should rather be named "Getting Fonts"... :\ |
| 15:49:52 | bluebrother | there's the note about some themes requiring fonts. That could get scrapped completely from the player manual |
| 15:50:10 | JdGordon | we really need a player manual? :p |

| 21:12:53 | * | shotofadds is missing a t-shirt |
| 21:12:57 | stripwax | ahhh |

| 21:13:09 | * | J-23 copied doom.wad file from CQ's main directory to /.rockbox/doom/rockdoom.wad, but Doom plugin returns "Missing base WAD" :/ |
| 21:13:24 | scorche|sh | shotofadds: thats what we thought...talk to GodEater_ when he gets done watching TV for how to get it ;) |
| 21:13:56 | gevaerts | J-23: Did you read http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/PluginDoom ? |
| 21:14:15 | J-23 | gevaerts: yes, but I didn't understand it. |

| 21:15:07 | gevaerts | J-23: basically you need the rockdoom.wad that's linked from there, and then any .wad files from variants you want to use |
| 21:16:30 | shotofadds | scorche|sh: it seems Lambda's m200 didn't like being pulled apart in the pub .. it's now missing about 8 LCD lines :/ |
| 21:17:23 | scorche|sh | shotofadds: eek...i never checked it since it was shipped, so it could have been a number of things...did you check the connector? |
| 21:18:16 | | Part Strife89 |
| 21:18:43 | Llorean | J-23: Rockdoom.wad should never, EVER be replaced. |
| 21:20:57 | J-23 | hmm, I downloaded rockdoom.wad to /.rockbox/doom/ and moved CQ's WAD to /.rockbox/doom/addons, but RockDoom still returns "Missing base WAD!". |
| 21:21:15 | J-23 | but I see my player often losses files :/ |
| 21:21:40 | bluebrother | J-23: you're repeating yourself ... in that case, tried chkdsk-ing the filesystem? |
| 21:22:05 | Llorean | J-23: you need to get doom working normally, first. |
| 21:22:05 | * | bluebrother still wonders why his m200 doesn't seem to go to usb boot mode :/ |
| 21:23:09 | shotofadds | scorche|sh: applying some pressure to the top of the lcd makes some of the 'dead' lines re-appear, so I guess it could be the connector/ribbon. but I can't get at it close enough to try and tweak it |
| 21:23:28 | PaulJam | isn't the doom.wad or doom2.wad in the .rockbox/doom/ dir also reqired? |
| 21:23:30 | Llorean | bluebrother: Another rbutil feature request: Since speech files are player-dependent anyway, can we take away the "speex" and "lame" options, and just make them depend on what player they're making the file for? |
| 21:23:35 | Llorean | PaulJam: Yes. |
| 21:23:43 | Llorean | An IWAD is required. |
| 21:23:53 | Llorean | Though I wouldn't be at all surprised if the Chexquest wad can be renamed doom.wad |
| 21:23:54 | J-23 | I tried fscking Rockbox partition, but fsck returns "Invalid disk format in boot sector." |
| 21:23:56 | Llorean | Or perhaps doom2.wad |
| 21:24:06 | Llorean | Since it is technically an IWAD. |
| 21:24:08 | shotofadds | bluebrother: is that with the daughterboard removed, or by shorting the USB pin? the latter is sometimes temperamental on mine, but removeing the board always works |
| 21:24:15 | stripwax | J-23 - you mean fsck.vfat , right? |
| 21:24:35 | J-23 | no, dosfsck :/ |
| 21:24:54 | gevaerts | same thing |
| 21:25:01 | bluebrother | Llorean: that is already implemented |
| 21:25:08 | J-23 | hmm, when I runned it as fsck.vfat, it returned "Logical sector size is zero." |
| 21:25:32 | bluebrother | shotofadds: I've removed the daughterboard but nothing happens. |
| 21:25:38 | gevaerts | Are you sure you're running it on the rockbox partition? |
| 21:25:46 | J-23 | no... |
| 21:26:15 | shotofadds | ah. nothing will show on the screen, but it'll be picked up on the PC as an unrecognized usb device |
| 21:26:16 | Llorean | bluebrother: How do people keep making bad voice files then? |

| 21:29:38 | J-23 | hmm, I think it's Rockbox partition - I see .rockbox dir on it. |
| 21:30:06 | J-23 | so what should I do when it's damaged? |
| 21:30:18 | gevaerts | Is it still mounted ? If so, unmount it first |
| 21:30:23 | scorche|sh | shotofadds: cant get close enough? |
| 21:31:04 | Llorean | bluebrother: Okay, just making sure I wasn't being stupid and requesting something that's already in a release version, that I completely overlooked. :) |

| 21:32:01 | Llorean | bluebrother: I knew 1.0.5 didn't. I just wasn't sure if 1.0.6 had made it out when I wasn't looking, and I'd overlooked it. :) |

| 21:32:29 | saratoga | stripwax: i don't think map files are supposed to show static functions |
| 21:33:03 | saratoga | the perl script gets the non-static functions by objdump on the actual codec binaries |
| 21:33:13 | saratoga | but i never had any luck finding most of them even doing that |
| 21:33:27 | saratoga | or at least the addresses didn't make sense to me when i tried |
| 21:34:27 | shotofadds | scorche|sh: I mean I'd need to take the LCD off the board to have a proper look, but I don't know if that's even possible. |
| 21:34:43 | stripwax | saratoga - yep, was just looking into objdump in fact. but the addresses look good to me. i'm not using the perl script though (I seem to remember it only works for the coldfire outt |
| 21:34:44 | shotofadds | Currently on the "USB Connected" screen most of the "USB" is missing :/ |
| 21:34:46 | stripwax | ^output) |
| 21:34:53 | scorche|sh | shotofadds: i cant imagine it not being able to, but i suppose it is possible |
| 21:35:07 | Llorean | Zagor: Honestly, if we had a "WPS Design" manual section, we could integrate that file so that we had a simplified changelog, and an easier official place for people to look up the tags? |
| 21:35:22 | bluebrother | shotofadds: the strange thing is that my PC doesn't pick the device up −− lsusb doesn't show anything, and windows doesn't tell about an unknow usb device. |
| 21:35:24 | PaulJam | saratoga: did you read what i wrote shortly after you left? |
| 21:35:35 | bluebrother | any hints? Do I need to flip some switch first or something like that? |
| 21:36:12 | shotofadds | scorche|sh: yeah, I'll try lifting it off sometime. but for now I can just press down in the right place if I need to see those lines... |
| 21:36:17 | J-23 | it's unmounted and fsck.vfat returns "Logical block blah blah blah" |

| 21:36:21 | J-23 | good night! |
| 21:36:22 | | Part J-23 |
| 21:36:30 | saratoga | PaulJam: yes I fixed that warning a while ago and didn't bother to update the patch since its not important |
| 21:37:45 | saratoga | you can fix it yourself just by casting the buffers on that line to (int*) instead of char* or whatever they default to (Tremor and libwmai disagree on how they declare their buffers) |
| 21:38:18 | PaulJam | saratoga: the one WMA song that i have sounds fine with the patch. |
| 21:38:28 | shotofadds | bluebrother: if you've taken the daughterboard off it should go straight into USB boot mode and show up in lsusb as 140e:b021. there's no extra switch or anything. |
| 21:39:04 | bluebrother | weird. |
| 21:39:58 | shotofadds | which hardware revision do you have? |

| 21:47:36 | saratoga | ok i'll have to take a look at the perl script and see why its not working then |
| 21:48:22 | saratoga | if you get a chance, looking at that 96kbps file on the test_codec wiki page might be interesting too |
| 21:48:23 | stripwax | Btw there is a bug in profile.c , depth++ in print_recursive should be ++depth, otherwise it will just print out 0000 as the depth in all lines |

| 21:55:12 | saratoga | stripwax: sounds good |
| 21:56:01 | stripwax | looks like the perl script either doesn't like the format of the arm mapfile, or assumes it lists all address (which it won't) |

| 22:08:28 | saratoga | with no DSP, that would mean the overhead from rockbox and drawing that screen was 9 MHZ |
| 22:08:34 | saratoga | which seems a bit too high |
| 22:09:42 | Llorean | Did you go in after buffering was finished, etc? |

| 22:12:26 | Buschel | saratoga: you're making good progress on WMA speed :) |
| 22:14:41 | saratoga | Buschel: I remember you looked into rockbox overhead a little |
| 22:14:49 | saratoga | how much does rockbox itself use? |
| 22:14:55 | saratoga | (above what the codec needs) |
| 22:14:56 | bluebrother | Zagor, Bagder: can you move http://www.stud.uni-karlsruhe.de/~uhcn/rockbox/rbutil/rbutilqt-v1.0.6.tar.bz2 and .zip to the download server? |
| 22:15:18 | Zagor | sure |
| 22:16:12 | bluebrother | let's see how many bugs are left in that release ;-) |
| 22:16:23 | Buschel | regarding the buffering screen -> dsp needs some MHz (+2.5MHz on PP for mpc, i do not know whether there is some resorting needed for WMA). the screen update will also take some MHz |
| 22:17:04 | Zagor | bluebrother: done |
| 22:17:57 | bluebrother | thanks. Updating the wiki ... |
| 22:18:00 | saratoga | i think overhead from DSP should be low for WMA since the output buffer is in IRAM and i believe its in the desired format already (interleaved 32 bit PCM if I recall correcly) |
| 22:18:08 | Buschel | saratoga: you can for the influence of the screen update via doing 2 measurements (1. @10fps = default, 2. @0.1fps) |
| 22:18:48 | Buschel | saratoga: then for WMA the overhead should be the same than waht I've measured = ~2.5MHz |
| 22:19:20 | gevaerts | Zagor: shouldn't the date for "DevCon 2008 is over." not be 2008-06-29 instead of 27 on the front page ? |
| 22:19:51 | Zagor | gevaerts: definitely. fixed. |
| 22:20:16 | gevaerts | Not the most important of problems of course :) |
| 22:20:59 | saratoga | Buschel: if we use 5-10MHz on GUI, then no wonder our battery life isn't as good as the retail firmware |
| 22:23:07 | Buschel | saratoga: 10fps is used for debug screen −− and it's needed for the bar graphs. 5fps is used by the WPS −− always, independent of changed/unchanged content |
| 22:23:59 | Buschel | saratoga: that's why battery benchs with "no WPS" make sense −− you totally switch off any gui updates |
| 22:24:51 | | Quit Thundercloud (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)) |

| 22:54:12 | Llorean | Well, saying you did "./configure" could be considered rather misleading if that's not what you did... |
| 22:54:49 | lard-Vader | sorry... I should have said I ran configure |
| 22:54:58 | Llorean | Well then I would've asked you from where. :) |
| 22:55:16 | lard-Vader | WEEEEEEEEP. Don't run this configure script within the tools directory. |
| 22:55:16 | lard-Vader | It will only cause you pain and grief. Instead do this: |
| 22:55:26 | lard-Vader | Also, it prints out this nice message if you do |
| 22:55:27 | Llorean | You cannot build rockbox without the necessary cross-compilers. You cannot build the sim without the appropriate SDL libraries. But they aren't necessary for a normal build. |
| 22:55:50 | scorche|sh | and please stop just pasting things in here |

| 22:56:55 | * | Bagder likes the WEEEP error message! ;-) |
| 22:57:55 | lard-Vader | Whoever tries to work around such a wonderful message has a demented mind. |
| 22:58:12 | Llorean | lard-Vader: People are strange. |
| 22:58:24 | Bagder | I think it basically happens because configure writes Makefile in the current dir |
| 22:58:39 | Bagder | so if you run configure in a funny dir, you get the original Makefile overwrittten |
| 22:58:54 | Bagder | thus no WEEEP anymore |
| 22:59:08 | Bagder | just failure ;-) |

| 23:00:48 | * | Llorean thinks if ./tools/configure is run, not ../, it should create subfolders for every possible build target (bootloaders, manuals, sims, normal, at least) and spend a week building once someone runs make, explicitly for those who skip the instructions on their first try. |

| 23:02:20 | amiconn | Bagder: Speaking of that - would it be possible to extend the distributed build system to do manual builds if changes to the manual are committed? |
| 23:02:38 | Bagder | of course, but it would probably take some poking |

| 23:03:25 | bluebrother | domonoky: you can start building a mac binary ;-) |
| 23:03:47 | bluebrother | Bagder: having a way to access the manual build logs would be nice too. |
| 23:04:11 | domonoky | bluebrother: not today, will do it tomorrow...( i just arrived at home) |
| 23:04:13 | amiconn | Perhaps it would be good to do a similar thing for voices once we start distributing multiple languages |

| 23:34:34 | MarcGuay | Sorry about the extra diffs in my last commit. I forgot I'd played around a bit with the c100 stuff - no major changes. |
| 23:34:49 | stripwax | at fullspeed (i.e. test_codec), 96kbps lame spends about 300k ticks in each of synth_full and III_decode, 65k ticks in mad_bit_skip; 128kbps spends 426k ticks in synth_full vs 334k ticks in III_decode, 77k ticks in mad_bit_skip; 192kbps spends 426k ticks in synth_full vs 351k ticks in III_decode, 94k ticks in mad_bit_skip |
| 23:35:19 | stripwax | very interesting. so synth_full on 128kbps example file is no faster than 192kbps example file |
| 23:35:28 | preglow | oh no |
| 23:35:34 | preglow | the synth step is the same anyway |
| 23:35:39 | preglow | the amount of data in and out doesnt change |
| 23:35:49 | preglow | the only part that cares about bitrate is entropy coding |
| 23:36:19 | stripwax | Why is 96kbps much faster? |
| 23:36:43 | preglow | hmm |
| 23:36:51 | stripwax | http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/CodecPerformanceComparison |
| 23:37:16 | pixelma | MarcGuay: you could specify the files to commit or what I sometimes do - change into the manual (as an example) folder and commit from there |
| 23:37:53 | stripwax | pretty much same performance (=200% realtime) for 128kbps thru 320kbps, and only 96kbps is noticeably faster |
| 23:37:58 | MarcGuay | pixelma: Aha, thanks for the tips. |
| 23:38:09 | Lear | stripwax: lower sample rate at 96 kbps. |
| 23:38:21 | Lear | Thus, less data in/out. |
| 23:38:41 | preglow | ahh |
| 23:38:51 | preglow | mpeg audio has a configurable upper band number |
| 23:38:54 | preglow | i guess that is why bit rate matters |
| 23:38:59 | stripwax | oh! well that explains it. but doesn't explain why coldfire *does* scale more noticabley |
| 23:39:03 | preglow | for synth_full |
| 23:39:39 | stripwax | although 400->444% realtime vs 577% realtime @ 96kps on H140, so same thing there too really |

| 23:40:02 | Lear | synth_full buffers not in iram? |
| 23:40:07 | stripwax | I guess profiling this on arm hasn't uncovered anything we didn't already know, synth_full is slow on arm. |
| 23:40:10 | preglow | hmm |
| 23:40:12 | stripwax | Lear - not sure |
| 23:40:13 | preglow | can't remember |
| 23:40:25 | stripwax | 5022/4 have 32KB more iram than they did a couple months ago ;) |

| 23:46:16 | preglow | afaik, the musepack subband synth routine is quite fast now, would be fun if we could adapt that to libmad |
