00:07:48mcuelenaereis memmove necessary for Rockbox to work?
00:09:58stripwaxmcuelenaere - as in, does Rockbox currently use it, or could Rockbox have been implemented without the need for it?
00:10:31mcuelenaereas in: I'm trying to get a MIPS target to run in Rockbox, will it need it?
00:11:01mcuelenaereit seems most use for memcpy and memmove the same function on MIPS targets
00:11:41stripwaxmemmove needs to be able to handle overlapping source and target, but if the mips implementation of memcpy handles that already then you can alias memmove to it

00:56:43saratogapreglow: the 64 bit multiplies in synth_full aren't a huge deal
00:57:26saratogathey're actually no slower then doing 32 bit multiplies there because they save you 2 cycle for renormalizing back to 4.28 fixed format
00:57:39saratogai think its slow mostly because synth_full does:
00:57:49saratoga1) a whole lot of multiplies, and multiplies are really, really slow
00:58:38saratoga2) the data format seems to involve a lot of random memory reads, so it can't make very effective use of ldm instructions, which means a lot of the loads take 2x as long as they could

02:45:21vincenzoI'd like the sandisk ones, but V2 is unsupported. And the others are no more in production :-(
02:46:36delorean90sometimes you can find them on ebay and other random stores. the ipod video is being sold on apples site for 179
02:47:29delorean90my advice if you really fancy a sansa, is to buy one of thier new ones that already has a "new port" thread in the rockbox forums, and just follow it to see if rockbox gets ported

02:49:07 Quit CaptainKewl (Remote closed the connection)
02:49:40delorean90well what do you mean? if you really want rockbox right away, i suggest the video or really any other player supported that you can find. otherwise do some searching around the new ports section of the forums and see which one has the most progress
02:52:56delorean90http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view if you take a look at the new ports section those are some of the daps that will almost definitely be ported *eventually*

03:16:04xqtftqxhas anybody used winff in linux to convert to rockbox? i get a error "unsported codec..."
03:16:27xqtftqxvincenzo: I whould recomend a gigabeat, that you can find on ebay, or a sansa
03:17:03vincenzoxqtftqx: the sansa (e280v1) is what I would like...
03:17:15vincenzoxqtftqx: How do I make sure I byu a V1?
03:17:41xqtftqxlook for "V1" somebody on the box or ebay auction
03:17:50xqtftqxor contact who ever is selling it
03:18:13MarcGuayvincenzo: The only way to know for sure is the firmware version. You'll have to find one second hand and ask the current owner.
03:19:32delorean90vincenzo, and as long as you always follow instructions, its almost impossible to brinck your supported dap
03:19:39delorean90*brick
03:20:22xqtftqx"supported"
03:20:59vincenzoShould I chose one from the "new ports" which one is in better shape in your opinion?
03:21:23xqtftqx"new ports" means there in devolpment
03:21:35xqtftqxrockbox runs but isnt ready for the general public
03:21:56MarcGuayvincenzo: The Gigabeat S is making good progress... The D2 as well, but still a lot of work before it's functional... I wouldn't recommend any of them if you want a sure thing.
03:22:20delorean90only chose a dap from that list if your prepared to wait a bit for support
03:22:43xqtftqxGigabeat S is going realy nice, i think all we need is a manual and bug fixes
03:22:52MarcGuayvincenzo: And even then, there's no guarantee they're even be finished.
03:23:00MarcGuay*even=ever
03:23:09MarcGuay*they're=they'll
03:23:21xqtftqxits a 99.9% chance they will be
03:23:27*MarcGuay should quit while he's ahead.
03:23:28xqtftqxah lets say 98
03:23:45 Quit lard-Vader ("Leaving.")
03:24:05MarcGuayvincenzo: If you buy one and it's never finished, remember this name: xqtftqx (very memorable). :)
03:24:27*delorean90 hopes for a port to the view
03:24:31xqtftqx:)
03:24:47vincenzoI can understand that... as a (very minor) KDE contributor I know how OSS developement goes :-)
03:25:32xqtftqxGrrr, i cant convert a video in linux!
03:26:19MarcGuayvincenzo: If you have access to eBay you can still find Gigabeat Fs, e200s, c200s, iriver h100/h300s... iAudio's have gotten very pricey but show up now and again...
03:26:19xqtftqxah, ill use windows :(
03:26:25vincenzoBut if rockbox does somehow work (and not brick it) I could always get involved in improving (2% of chance I have enaught time)
03:27:24xqtftqxvincenzo: No worrys in bricking
03:27:47vincenzoI think I'll eventually go for the e280vx...
03:27:54xqtftqxGood Choice
03:28:01*delorean90 thinks back to when the iriverh10 was first ported and smiles
03:28:46vincenzomaybe I'll try on pixmania or ebay. If I get a v2 (I'll delay the rockbox adoption:-(((( )
03:29:19vincenzoDoes v2 read SDHC at least?
03:29:26vincenzoI fear not !
03:29:50vincenzos/I fear not !/I fear it won't/
03:30:24advcomp2019vincenzo, yea the v2 can read sdhc should but this was getting off topic
03:31:05vincenzoadvcomp2019: :-) fair enaught :-)
03:31:43vincenzoHow many people are involved (if you know them) in v2 porting?
03:32:04vincenzoI'm just reading trught the forum.

06:21:40Lloreanlucent: xqtftqx isn't a dev...
06:21:48lucentagh, my mistake
06:21:58lucentLlorean: what was the correct answer?
06:22:26LloreanThere aren't really player-specific devs.
06:22:38LloreanMost devs have done work on many specific players.
06:22:57LloreanGenerally only early on is there a dev or a few devs specific to any given player, but that's just when the port is very new.
06:23:41lucentI'm still searching for a hardware device to run rockbox on
06:23:45LloreanAs for the Gigabeat X, it's only a nominally supported target. It _should_ work, but we don't actually have any regular dev who owns one, so nobody can really perform regular testing, or tweaks for its few differences from the Gigabeat F
06:23:56Lloreanlucent: Seen the BuyersGuide page in the wiki?
06:24:25lucentit sounds kind of risky though, like v1 / v2
06:24:55lucentthere's nothing in production
06:26:01LloreanRisky?
06:26:08LloreanThe v1/v2 issue is only with the Sandisk players we support
06:26:13LloreanEverything else is pretty explicit.
06:26:44lucentwell, the iPods too. which Gen, not all sellers know this 2nd hand
06:28:28lucentsansa e200v1 looks nice, wish I could find one for sale and know it would be a v1 :)
06:28:39LloreanIt's really, really easy to tell the difference between iPod gens.
06:33:56MarcGuayJdGordon: Yeah I goofed on the commit with unrelated changes and got some tips on how to avoid it in the future.
06:34:30JdGordonok :)
06:34:55MarcGuayAnyone with thoughts on where the ipod/x5/m5 A-B repeat code is hiding?
06:36:23LloreanHave you tried to grep for it?
06:37:17MarcGuayYeahm grep is my new best friend. No dice, at least for the WPS_ABRESET button.. I should try with the actual function, though...
06:37:35LloreanProbably a better bet
06:38:49MarcGuayNo, I tried that too. It only exists in gwps.c and abrepeat.c/h
06:39:47MarcGuayI have a feeling it's coded in a different way. They use a 1st select = set A, 2nd select = set b, 3rd select = reset, unlike the combos for other targets.

06:50:45MarcGuayGranted, I can't think of another way to do it.. :)
06:51:15MarcGuayYou can't define the button twice for the same context so it has to be done elsewhere.
06:52:15MarcGuaySo any ideas on how the player sets the A/B points?
06:52:32JdGordondoes the player even have a-b mode?
06:52:59MarcGuayJdGordon: It does on the sim.
06:53:44JdGordon" You can't define the button twice for the same context so it has to be done elsewhere." ??
06:54:43MarcGuayJdGordon: Or maybe you can? Could ACTION_WPSAB_SINGLE be moved from the configs to the keymaps where it makes more sense?
06:55:28JdGordonoh, woops, now I get you... yes, the same button cant return 2 different actions
06:55:28MarcGuayI think I'm confused, ignore me.
06:56:24JdGordonand yep, I cant see how to set a/b points on the player either
06:56:45MarcGuaySo the player remains a mystery. Hopefully someone will read this in the logs and send out a bat-signal.

08:13:28Buschelstripwax/preglow/saratoga: (for the logs) the synth (dct32+synthfull) might be faster on mp3-96kbps because of several subband being zero'ed. through this you'll have more muls with 0 at least in the dct and smaller coefficients (less energy) in synthfull.
08:14:53Buschelthe same should happen in the entropy coding and requantization. additionally there should be lots of intesitiy stereo coding which saves a channel in the upper bands −− at least in the entropy cding
08:16:01Buschelbtw, some days ago I've merged the libmad dct into mpc. compiling the C-version of dct32 is a bit faster than the asm-version on PP5022

15:27:24MarcGuayWhat's difference between the X5V and the X5? Is this something your average user can tell without further guidance?
15:28:45LambdaCalculus37IIRC the X5V doesn't have the FM radio.
15:29:27LambdaCalculus37I don't know if there's an easy way to tell on the outside, though.
15:29:38MarcGuayI'm wondering if "Use the x5v_fw.bin file if your player is a X5V. If it is a X5, use the x5_fw.bin file." in the installation instructions is sufficient...
15:30:21LambdaCalculus37Personally, I'm certain that the owners of the device should know exactly which model they have. But I don't own an iAUDIO X5, so I can't really say for sure.
15:30:46LambdaCalculus37I'm *assuming* that "X5V" must be printed on the back of the device, as Cowon did that with the X5L.
15:31:20LambdaCalculus37You could change it slightly to read "If it is an X5 or X5L, use the x5_fw.bin file", though.
15:37:51MarcGuayDoes the iAudio firmware actually get erased when rockbox is installed or can the bootloader just not point towards it?
15:38:28LambdaCalculus37I think the bootloader simply doesn't point to it.
15:38:41LambdaCalculus37But I think we should consult an X5 dev on this.
15:38:43MarcGuayThe manual says " It replaces the original firmware", which seems wrong...
15:39:00 Join K4rP4D [0] (n=KrPD@unaffiliated/krpd)
15:39:10LambdaCalculus37Well, I do know for a fact that the X5 officially does not dual boot.
15:39:27*LambdaCalculus37 casts the "Summon an X5 dev" spell
15:39:39MarcGuayI think it means to say "The bootloader replaces the OF in the boot sequence with Rockbox."
15:40:01*MarcGuay isn't convinced that's any clearer.
15:40:15LambdaCalculus37MarcGuay: But it gets the idea across better.
15:40:28MarcGuayIf it's true. :) Guess I'll wait...
15:40:33LambdaCalculus37Actually, no... scratch that.
15:41:06LambdaCalculus37Like I said, the X5 doesn't dual boot. Ditto the Gigabeat F. So in those cases, Rockbox is pretty much replacing the firmware.
15:44:00MarcGuayI think I understand now - Because the device has a hardware bootloader, the rockbox bootloader is written over the OF.
15:47:01MarcGuayIs there a reason there's no advice on how to backup the OF in the X5/M5 instructions before overwriting it, as is done for the Gigabeat?
15:48:26peturI thought there was a new, working dual-boot loader for x5?
15:48:46LambdaCalculus37MarcGuay: The biggest reason why it's done for the Gigabeat is because the firmware actually resides on the hard drive, so if you ever want to go back, you should have an unaltered backup of the OF.
15:49:13LambdaCalculus37petur: There was a patch on Flyspray, but I never saw word of an official one.
15:49:51MarcGuayLambdaCalculus37: The instructions for the iAudio suggest that you go to their website and download the firmware again to uninstall. Kind of weak, no?
15:50:08MarcGuaypetur: No clue on that, just going by what I've read.
15:50:15peturI was told on devcon that the new one was looking great and could be made official after enough testing
15:50:53LambdaCalculus37MarcGuay: Agreed.

15:54:12MarcGuayn1s: Nice, thank you... And we can't provide a copy of it because of copyright?

17:19:04LearNico_P: It seems like the problem is that if the bufopen for album art is called too quickly after the bufopen for the metadata (which triggers the start fill), then I can get the abort.

17:26:57LambdaCalculus37Actually, it just jumps back to the root menu.
17:27:13LambdaCalculus37There's no way of getting into the Recording Settings menu from within the recording screen.

18:23:57elvalecitahello! im new with rockbox, fresh installed in my ipod 5.5 gen, 30 gb, running win xp sp2. I have a lot of playlists and I converted them using "iPod-iTunes to RockBox Playlist Converter v1.01", the developer explains that I should use a patch so the songnames are displayed correctly (FS #7652 - EXTM3U support). I have been trying to learn how to actually install this patch.
18:24:03elvalecitaAfter reading the guide in the wiki ("WorkingWithPatches"), I guess its too hard for me being no programmer. Is there an less complicated way to fix the display of the song names? Should I give up and convert the lists manually (would take pretty long)? Thanks for your attention! Javier

18:28:27pixelmaMarcGuay: I remember having a look at the recording keymaps of the Ipods once (for the manual too) and it wasn't fully working
18:29:12Lloreanelvalecita: The problem is that the songs were synced with iTunes. It renames the song files. The EXTM3U reads extra lines with the song names in the playlist file, that your program put there.
18:29:19LloreanThe only other fix is to simply have properly named songs.
18:32:55pixelmalooking at the diff you pasted - long select once was an idea for my c200 keymap changes (in the recording screen) but I scrapped that since as long as a short select starts a new recording it's far too easy to accidentally start recording if you would just like to enter the menu...
18:33:10pixelma^ MarcGuay
18:33:13elvalecitaLlorean: well i've actually used Winamp the whole time, i guess it does the same that itunes. So what you are saying is that I should erase my whole library from the ipod and then copy it from the original files?

18:48:18GodEater_ah yes, I've seen it

18:52:00LambdaCalculus37gevaerts: It's more of a "feature". :P
18:52:20LloreanLambdaCalculus37: It's more "an existing problem that USB brought to light" if evidence holds.
18:53:11gevaertsAnyway, there are a few issues left : "something" timing related that shows up more often when using hubs, and the (mentioned) corruption issue, which is probably a bug in the sansa sd driver
18:53:11GalaxorOoh, I see the usb_charging_only. Is that a thing where you can plug in the machine and it will charge but not act like a disk, and then I can reboot the machine manually in order to connect the player to the computer?

18:56:57gevaertsGodEater_: this matters for the GBS because it has two FAT partitions, and Windows doesn't handle more than one partition on removable devices
18:57:17GodEater_gevaerts: it doesn't? Since when ?
18:57:19*gevaerts thinks that both behaviours are bugs, but there's not much we can do
18:57:38*GodEater_ has plugged in multi-partition USB keys to his PC before
18:57:57GodEater_although I guess only one of them was a FS that windows understood

18:58:26MarcGuayLambdaCalculus37, pixelma: I have company over. Will check it out more later, and that's a good point about the "new recording" button.
18:58:35gevaertsIt does. s/more than one partition/more than one Windows-accessible partition/
18:58:44LambdaCalculus37GodEater_: I thought both partitions were FAT32, and it was just a flag set to the system partition (according to the wiki, anyway).
18:58:52LambdaCalculus37MarcGuay: Okay, no problem.
18:59:04GodEater_LambdaCalculus37: they're TFAT technically
18:59:17GodEater_and I've never tried plugging it into a windows PC, so I've not seen any weird behaviour
18:59:20Lloreangevaerts: Doesn't the e200 register as a removable device with two partitions (internal flash and SD?)
18:59:22*gevaerts wonders what the T stands for. "Terrible" ?
18:59:30LloreanOr are they treated as two separate devices?
18:59:33GodEater_that would be two volumes
18:59:36GodEater_not partitions
18:59:38LloreanAh, right.
18:59:40gevaertsLlorean: they are two LUNs

19:00:13GodEater_means more work for gevaerts though ;)
19:00:45gevaertsLlorean: maybe not, but we may want them to be able to make a full disk-level backup
19:00:52GodEater_the S wouldn't want them repartioning it either

19:01:00LloreanGodEater_: I think that's why we don't. :)
19:02:14*gevaerts is willing to make a translation layer to allow this sort of trick, but he won't be tricked into deciding that it is needed
19:03:38gevaertsLambdaCalculus37: I deny all responibility for the camera
19:05:28GodEater_gevaerts: leave it to RSB ?
19:05:52*Llorean begins to fear how much is going to get dumped on the RSB.
19:06:12gevaertsGodEater_: maybe. There are good arguments for both sides
19:06:39GodEater_gevaerts: it won't be popular, but I guess we could make it an option ?
19:06:49GodEater_i.e. some sort of toggle somewhere
19:07:02gevaertsWouldn't that be a support nightmare?
19:07:11GodEater_it could well become one
19:07:23GodEater_but then, *not* having the translation layer might well become a support nightmare
19:07:31GodEater_a lot of our "users" do run windows after all
19:07:39LloreanI think that turning off the translation layer could be hidden in debug
19:07:42GodEater_if the GBS become a supported target
19:07:44Lloreanno "userspace" toggle.
19:07:54gevaertsAnd not persistent

19:13:11gevaertsRemovable is a SCSI term with a precise meaning :)
19:13:24*GodEater_ is clearly not the right person to be talking about this given he doesn't use windows with his S
19:13:27LloreanIt's removable, but not "Removable"
19:13:30gevaertsNothing to do with the USB removability
19:13:52LloreanI think access to the partition table is probably "bad" but access to the firmware partition is good (for easy updates)
19:13:55GodEater_ok - I think I'll butt out now then while I'm only vaguely confused :)
19:14:20gevaertsSCSI removable means that the SCSI handler stays there, but the media can get removed (floppy, SD card,...)
19:14:43gevaertsOnly a lot of USB device manufacturers didn't read that properly
19:15:06GodEater_that doesn't sound like desirable behaviour for a DAP without an SD card slot
19:15:32GodEater_I can see it would make sense for the sansas though
19:16:00gevaertsIt's a bit complicated, because for lots of reasons that bit also gets used by OSes to make decisions, like "do I put a trashcan on it"

19:17:46GodEater_how irritating
19:17:49gevaertsA useful thing you get from setting the removable bit is that you can get eject commands, which you can use to leave disk mode and go to charging mode (technically you are still in disk mode, but the disk is ejected)
19:18:05GodEater_which is presumably how the ipod does it
19:18:14*Llorean would very much like that.
19:18:26*Llorean also does like the "doesn't keep a trashcan" aspect of removable devices.
19:18:34*gevaerts points out that it already works like that, except for the GBS
19:20:20LloreanAh.
19:20:50gevaertsYou can even go back to disk mode, via the debug menu

19:56:20amiconn(1) You cannot use ldr(b|h) with = this way. It will load the address itself from the constant pool (but that cannot work because ldrb is byte sized)

19:57:22dany_21ato (1)... okay - how to i load the value (its actually a register) from a constant address.
19:57:27amiconnyeah, just a bit far away to spot it easily...
19:58:04amiconnYou need to load that address into a register first. Either using ldr, from the constant pool, or using mov/orr sequences with immediates
19:58:42amiconnAnd there's 'tst' for testing bits, which does the same as 'and' but discards the result itself

20:03:40dany_21aamiconn: okay - i have already seen that construct from the pastpin in the disassmbly some times
20:03:44amiconnThis uses the same amount of binary size (the ldr also needs the address in the constant pool, automatically put there by the assembler). Whether it's faster or slower depends on the arm version and generation
20:03:52dany_21athx - currently compiling/uploading
20:04:14amiconnOn arm7tdmi the mov/orr combo is faster. On later ones it probably doesn't matter

20:23:26mcuelenaerestackend is a uintptr_t BTW
20:23:35gevaertsProbably, but that error seems to point to a different problem I think
20:23:55Buschelok, remeasurements looks reasonable fir libmad. c-dct32 -O2 = 39.75MHz, c-dct32 -01 = 38.27MHz, asm dct -O2 = 38.28MHz
20:24:11mcuelenaereI think the code will work with a cast to (uint32_t), but I'm not going to change that as it's not cross-platform compatible
20:24:19Buschelso, at least the c-dct is of the same speed as the asm'ed dct
20:25:05mcuelenaereah never mind, gevaerts you were right: the problem is elsewhere
20:27:48amiconnBuschel: Did you also test the PP5020 case? (less iram - dunno whether libmad on arm makes use of that)
20:28:07amiconnPP5002 is probably more different
20:28:53Buschelamiconn: no, just have a 5022 here. just trying to put the c-dct32 into iram now
20:29:25amiconnYou can test the 5020 case. PP5020 and PP5022 are identical in speed as long as the same things are in iram

20:36:53amiconnSo... pretty minimal differences
20:36:57wpyhI've got some new results at the IpodRuntime page
20:37:15amiconnWhat's the margin of error in those measurements?
20:37:15*wpyh is not going to disturb their conversation
20:37:32Buschelamiconn: they are quite reproducible
20:37:45amiconnYeah, but +/- 0.02MHz ??
20:37:47Buschelamiconn: max difference is +/- 0.01MHz
20:38:03amiconnThat's less than one permille
20:38:55mcuelenaereare #define's included from a .h file in a .c file still valid when it's run through the assembler stage?
20:39:01Buschelamiconn: how can we build synth.c with -O1, but the other files with -O2?
20:39:09amiconnAnd alignment can probably change things more than that. On coldfire it definitely does; didn't see that effect on arm yet though
20:39:45amiconnBuschel: I'd just keep using the asm version....
20:40:07amiconnMaybe that one can be optimised further, and then you'll gain more than 0.02MHz
20:40:55Buschelat least I would learn more about makefiles ;-)
20:41:15*wpyh sees that the conversation has died down somewhat

20:41:42wpyh(there's a final data missing but it should follow the trend)

20:42:15wpyhthe runtime increases that we see when we use a lower bitrate codec is lower than with the OF
20:42:19Buschel(or better: rockbox does not scale...)
20:42:32wpyhoh? I was thinking about the buffering algorithm, but I'm not sure
20:43:31wpyhand the OF doesn't turn off accessory power supply, right? while in my tests, I turned it off... so there must be a huge power eater somewhere

20:53:37bertrikin this version of battery bench, the instant that a measurement is done no longer depends on disk activity, disk spin-down times or whether music is playing or not, it simply takes a measurement each minute

21:11:33GodEater_although not hugely perhaps, given how hard it is to come by
21:11:46LloreanThe SansaV2 is where I think the biggest rush will come in.
21:11:53GodEater_yeah
21:11:57GodEater_that's going to be "fun"
21:12:26*GodEater_ remembers "fondly" the last influx of sansa users
21:12:39LloreanThat's a big part of why I think the forums need simpler rules, and consistent enforcing
21:12:41GodEater_though most of them have mellowed with time ;)
21:12:43bluebrotherLlorean: what do you think about "GraphicalInstall" as pagename?
21:12:46LloreanWe need something that scales well.
21:13:00Lloreanbluebrother: Works for me, and I think it'll help make people feel comfortable.
21:13:58*gevaerts was probably one of the latecomers in this last influx of sansa users
21:14:12Lloreangevaerts: You certainly aren't in the group we're referring to.
21:14:29GodEater_hell no
21:14:36LloreanThough it's possible you've "bricked" your player as often as they have...
21:14:46GodEater_unless I forgot you drooling into your beard when you first arrived
21:14:54GodEater_and smacking your knuckles on the door step
21:15:10LambdaCalculus37Hehehe... :)
21:15:21GodEater_I'm pretty sure I'd remember though
21:15:33gevaertsI'm probably the only one to have "bricked" his c200 to be able to give exact instructions to someone else :)
21:15:44LambdaCalculus37Now that's dedication. :)
21:15:46GodEater_what, on how to brick it exactly the same ? :)
21:16:13GodEater_1) Take one microwave oven....
21:16:21GodEater_2) insert your DAP...
21:16:24gevaertsThat's for bricking, not "bricking"
21:16:39GodEater_ah, that subtle difference some many of our users miss
21:16:44GodEater_s/some/so
21:16:45LambdaCalculus373) Microwave on HIGH for 5 minutes.
21:16:54GodEater_4) Stand well back
21:17:14LambdaCalculus375) Boom!
21:17:17LambdaCalculus376) Hahaha!
21:17:40gevaertsOr just 2) drop microwave (with DAP in it) in a handy nearby river
21:18:15LloreanI'm also not entirely confident about who we'll be getting with the Meizu player
21:18:38GodEater_they're going to be hard work
21:18:40LambdaCalculus37Llorean: I can pretty much assure that we're going to have a massive influx of visitors from China with the Meizu.
21:18:49LloreanI think the big fear for me is always when I go check out their own forums, and realize they're going to come to ours and expect to be able to behave the same
21:19:08*GodEater_ gets ready with the big stick to wave at them
21:19:44LambdaCalculus37Llorean: I had a crazy idea... why not also assign specific people to mod various areas of the forums? For example, someone can mod the Apple section, another mod the Toshiba section, etc...

21:21:43GodEater_LambdaCalculus37: how much do you consciously spend avoiding bits of the forum in your own browsing habits ?

21:36:25GodEater_MarcGuay: imo Keyclick is bloody dreadful across all PP targets
21:36:43MarcGuayGodEater: It's supposed to be a beep or a click?
21:36:49GodEater_heck if I know
21:36:53LambdaCalculus37Agreed. I can hardly use it on either one of my iPods.

21:36:59GodEater_it made my ears bleed the first time I tried it
21:37:08GodEater_I've never turned it on since
21:37:26LloreanSo, what you're saying is, "keyclick should be ifdeffed out for the release"?
21:37:37LloreanAt least for PP targets?
21:37:40pixelmaGodEater: pondlife fixed that but it means that it doesn't work 100% of the time...
21:37:42GodEater_well I would
21:37:54LloreanGodEater_: Mind posting a bug report on it (what it does, how to reproduce if possible, etc)?
21:37:54GodEater_pixelma: so it's still somewhat useless then ?
21:38:11GodEater_Llorean: well if pondlife "fixed" the ears bleeding thing, there's not much point
21:38:15LloreanAh
21:38:17GodEater_I think I documented that on the original patch anyway
21:38:22GodEater_he just ignored it ;)
21:38:29pixelmaand that beeeep only occured to me (on the c200) when voice was enabled), if it was disabled it worked correctly

21:38:40pixelmanot sure what it does currently haven
21:38:43MarcGuayLlorean: Yeah, it's awful. I just had it pierce my ears (even on weak). It froze on "meeeeeep" until I restarted playback.

22:30:53bluebrothergevaerts: I think the better solution is to add a new "welcome" screen.
22:31:19gevaertsYes, but that still needs no-existing-config detection
22:31:21bluebrotherthat would include a "don't remind me again" button which is such a flag. It could also inform the user if permissions are missing or similar

22:34:47Nico_Palso, what about the last hunk?

22:37:29gevaertsSo maybe a QString curVersion() function, and a new dialog if that is nonexistent or different from the software version ?

22:42:14Nico_PLear: actually, correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm starting to think that maybe none of those additional mutexes are needed and that the only issue was m being made out of date by shrink_handle

23:39:09bluebrothergevaerts: sorry, was distracted for a bit
23:40:01bluebrotherlooks nice. Go for it!
23:40:09gevaertsbluebrother: no problem. I lost more time to being stupid than to your distraction :)

23:41:26goffahmm... may have found a bug on my gigabeat, but i'm having trouble isolating it.. i use the random folder advance, when i advance to the next folder using short right/long right it goes to the next folder but i get no audio
23:41:35goffathe song plays, but silently
23:41:42goffaif i restart the track using back, it plays
23:41:53goffadoesn't do that every time
23:42:47goffaalso... when i do short left long left it doesn't go back to the previous dir.. just to a random one
23:42:53goffadon't know if its supposed to

23:44:10goffaguess that's two bugs.. but i don't know if the second one is a bug :)
23:44:11MarcGuaygoffa: If it's random, I'd expect it to be random in both directions, I guess.
23:44:47PaulJamgoffa: for the first issue see FS #9152, the second one is intended.
23:44:58goffaok
23:45:17goffaalthough.. random backwards should go back imo

23:46:02goffabut might be too much code on the other hand
23:46:25linuxstbSo what's the difference between random forwards and random backwards?
23:46:56PaulJamthere is no difference (in the current implementation)
23:46:57goffawell... backwards shouldn't be random
23:47:00goffa:)
23:47:23linuxstbSo what's the point in the two button mappings? Why not just use one?
23:47:52PaulJamlinuxstb: for non-random dirskip
23:48:19linuxstbIMO, skipping backwards should be disabled in random mode then - or fixed.
23:49:03Nico_Pgoffa: play/pause will "fix" the no sound issue. could you add a comment to the task PaulJam linked you to with a description of how you got it?
23:49:15MarcGuaygoffa: Does the same thing happen if you use the combo-keypress?
23:49:34goffahmm... i never do that.. let me try a couple times
23:49:52MarcGuaygoffa: Curious about both issues...
23:50:40goffajust did it about 20 times
23:50:42PaulJamNico_P: when you got the issue, did you use the PLAY + LEFT/RIGHT buttoncombo or the short - long combo?
23:50:43goffacombo
23:50:49goffano error
23:51:12Nico_PPaulJam: actually I haven't gotten it that way for a long time because I never skip dirs
23:51:12goffaso it would seem that its just short right long right
23:51:19goffai didn't try combo left
23:51:20Nico_Ps/for/in
23:51:25goffamostly because i don't care :)
23:51:26MarcGuaygoffa: And does it random backwards as well?
23:51:32goffai can do it
23:52:57goffaok.. combo left seems to work too
23:53:11goffalet me try short left long left
23:53:16MarcGuaygoffa: It goes to the previous album non-randomly?

23:54:03goffaMarcGuay: it goes to a random album
23:54:13goffahowever.. there seems to be consistant sound
23:54:43MarcGuaygoffa: The difference between the two seems to be in gwps.c starting at line 390.
23:54:44goffai hope that made sense
23:57:54MarcGuayLine 363, actually, for the skip fwd.
23:58:28goffahere's the way i think it should behave... maybe i'm illogical... left: beginning of track, double left: last track of previous album. combo or short long first track of previous album
