01:30:05n1sBronxGuy: and if you can reproduce the crash please post a bug report with the file attached
01:30:08BronxGuywow, that was easy. Thanks Llorean
01:30:10amiconnallele: lcd_set_foreground() is *not* for drawing parts of a bitmap. It doesn't draw at all by itself; it's for setting the foreground colour. Check http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/GraphicsAPI
01:30:54alleleI know, I was using that to retrieve the color then use drawpixel(x,y) to actually add that pixel
01:31:08DerPapstamiconn: about that irc reader log.. i made a patch one that fixes the issue you mentioned a few minutes ago and one or 2 bugs more but no one wanted to commit the patch :-(
01:31:22DerPapsts/one/once
01:32:23amiconnallele: You cannot do this, at least not for all pixel formats. On 16 bit colour it would work, but that's a coincidence
01:32:44amiconnBitmaps for <8 bit depth are pixel packed
01:33:34alleleyes, I know. I was just seeing if this would work for my sansa and add other functionality later
01:33:46amiconn...and the pixel order in the bitmap is most probably not what you'd expect. For 2-bit greyscale, there are 3 different pixel packings, depending on the target's lcd controller
01:34:10alleleI see
01:34:38 Quit mcuelenaere ()
01:35:02alleleso any pointers for scaling down a native bitmap without reducing performance too much then?
01:35:27*Llorean thought he more or less warned allele about pixel format yesterday.
01:35:53amiconnIf you're thinking about scaling bitmaps for album art etc - imo the best solution is to do it on load, in the bmp loeader
01:35:57DerPapstamiconn: maybe you have more luck asking zagor to commit this patch. I've tested it on my own server and it works fine. http://pastebin.ca/1195327
01:35:59 Quit HellDragon (Connection timed out)
01:36:31alleleyesterday you stated it wouldn't work for things under 16 bits, I thought the sansa was 16 bits
01:37:17amiconn(1) it would save RAM, as it'd only store the scaled down bitmap instead of the source. (2) It would be easier, as the loader converts *any* bmp to 32 bits first, before converting to native format
01:38:06amiconnIt requires to scale down on-the-fly though, with only 1 (or at least very few) row of pixels available at a time
01:38:59alleleI was more or less planning on making a doom-esque type engine in which the sprites would be scaled down based on their distance, so I would have several bitmaps of the same image at different scales
01:39:10amiconnBesides, the pixel order in a 16bit native bitmap is [y][x]
01:40:25amiconn(well, for the current targets - there is no guarantee that this won't be different on some new target that needs special measures due to its lcd controller)
01:40:35 Quit n1s ()
01:40:51amiconnAllso note that even for 16 bit we have 2 pixel formats - RGB565, and RGB565 byte-swapped

01:56:02 Quit bughunter2 ("bye")
01:56:42*amiconn isn't sure what allele is trying to achieve
01:57:43amiconnImo trying to scale a native rockbox bitmap would be silly, as it'd need adaption to all the various pixel formats, and all the bit unstuffing and stuffing will be slow
01:58:54amiconnIt'd also be a nogo for the core, since storing large native bitmaps would be a waste of ram. Scale on load, or let it. Same goes for canonical formats (to avoid the unstuffing) They need even more ram
01:59:37amiconnFor a plugin it's a different matter. As long as you don't hit the plugin ram size limit, you're free to play with all kinds of bitmap scaling

02:19:32Unhelpfuli have a feeling that drawing a bitmap by repeatedly calling drawpixel will be too slow :P
02:21:02Soappixelma -(for the logs) what do you think of the idea of asking theme makers who are using a non-SVN font to package the font separately? This would keep the themes consistent and clean, and prevent the overwriting of new fonts with old fonts if and when the packaged font gets accepted into SVN.
02:21:41Soappixelma - an argument could be made as well that if someone has clear license to distribute a font in the first place than it should be part of the Rockbox font package.
02:23:38LloreanSoap: makes sense to me. Maybe fonts should be kept separately rather than in SVN, to make SVN checkouts smaller. I'm not sure we need "make fontzip" and "make fullzip" so much anyway if we just keep a fonts.zip available somewhere we control.
02:24:39allelevalid argument unhelpful. I guess the easiest method would be to make a native bitmap for each scale. In the case I don't get enough space would I be able to package the bitmaps into another plugin to be called from the main one?

02:26:21LloreanCalling another plugin doesn't make any sense.
02:27:22Unhelpfulallele: i'd imagine that for rendering sprites you probably want to store them in memory at native size, and then scale them to the appropriate size as they are being drawn. looking quickly at doom, it would appear that what it does, as far as getting data on the screen, is to write to the framebuffer directly.
02:28:06Unhelpfulprescaled sprites sounds like a waste of your limited memory resources to me, especially if sprites are going to be rendered at arbitrary distances from the camera, and therefore at arbitrary scales.
02:32:15allelealright, so back to square one :P so besides using drawpixel for the image is there a more efficient way then?

02:33:43Unhelpfullike i just said, direct memory writes to the framebuffer

02:38:37alleleany examples of direct memory writing to the framebuffer in the rockbox plugin source?

02:43:09Unhelpfulit also looks like maybe you could maintain a buffer into which you scale sprites, and then use rb->lcd_bitmap_transparent_part to copy that buffer to the screen. but it's probably better for you just to scale directly to the framebuffer yourself, i'd think.

07:20:34EddieFighow do i get videos in to rockbox?
07:21:02EddieFigdo i use itunes, or is drag n drop good enough, then build the database?
07:22:09UnhelpfulEddieFig: most of what you'll need to know is here: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/PluginMpegplayer
07:22:45Unhelpfulvideos must be formatted correctly, and placed on the drive. afaik the database isn't involved at all.
07:29:46advcomp2019yes.. you use the file on the main menu
07:36:17Unhelpfulthe iPod color/photo and iPod video don't look like they can handle full-screen video at common framerates, so that could be a problem. if it's an iPod video, i'd imagine the OF video playback would be better to use?

07:38:19advcomp2019i think the ipod video is that way
07:40:11Unhelpfuladvcomp2019: according to the chart, the color/photo can handle 16:9 video @25fps, so it could manage, barely, with most film content. the nano is the only one that really stands a chance w/ 30fps content.
07:41:11advcomp2019o that.. i thought you ws talking about the OF.. sorry
07:41:46Unhelpfulthat's w/ rockbox. so, i'd say video is likely better in OF on models where OF supports it
07:42:59Unhelpfulkinda funny that the ipod video is pretty much the worst performer for video playback in rockbox, but there's a dedicated hardware video decoder that the OF can use, isn't there? :/
07:45:11advcomp2019yea i think so but i since i do not have an ipod i am not 100%.. i am just reading the info myself

07:46:45allelesorry to come back so soon, but I had the idea of a bitmap image the size of the screen that would be changed based on the game and at the end of a cycle I blit that bitmap?
07:48:28Unhelpfulallele: that's a way, i suppose. i would still suggest that you look at what doom does. in fact, it might not be a bad idea for you to look at how it loads and renders sprites, as well.

07:52:31Unhelpfuli haven't worked on games for rockbox, but it really looks like the plugin API's fb_data is an off-screen framebuffer, so you should be able to do your drawing directly to that, and then call lcd_update_rect to update the screen
07:52:40Unhelpfulbut i'm only skimming this stuff, so i could be wrong.
07:53:11kpkeerthiHi... just noticed that rockbox has completely drained my iPod's battery. The battery was 90% charged when I switched it off day before yesterday. Today when I turn it on I get "Very Low Battery" warning and the Ipod is not switching on
07:53:24alleleeven so I'm greatful for the help
07:55:01Unhelpfulif it was off, it would really seem that it was not rockbox that drained it?
07:55:41alleleyou could have turned on rockbox and the lcd just shut off while it was still running perhaps

08:05:22EddieFighello, My videos seem to be skipping in frames, any help? and how do i add album art? All my albums have art in WMP but not in rockbox
08:05:53kpkeerthihowever if i turn it on and wait till rockbox load and then connect to the PC, it works OK
08:06:16kpkeerthinow that my battery has drained I could not have rockbox load
08:07:09UnhelpfulEddieFig: exactly which ipod do you have, and what size and format are the videos? also, album art needs to be saved as bitmap files, with the right filenames, for rockbox to load it.
08:07:14kpkeerthichecking if apple's firmware loads
08:07:18kpkeerthi...
08:08:15kpkeerthiok... apple's firmware loads just fine now....
08:08:54advcomp2019EddieFig, did you read the wiki about album art?
08:09:05EddieFigI've got ipod video 30gb, and the video is mpg format (used super c to convert) and the video i'm trying to play is 173mb.
08:09:13EddieFighmm, no.
08:09:31EddieFiggoing there now
08:11:15EddieFigokay, i've got the album art figured out, so how about that video skipping?
08:11:41advcomp2019EddieFig, have you tried one of the converters in the wiki for the videos.. since you have an ipod video i think people like OF for videos tho

08:20:04UnhelpfulEddieFig: per page i linked earlier, the ipod video is one of the worst performers for rockbox video playback. you won't be able to play fullscreen video on it at decent framerates. i would really suggest you consider using the OF for video.

11:43:07n1samiconn: I'm not at all sure how the archos bootbox/flashing etc works and what risks are involved so i have left them out of the bootloader update for now. I is not very likely any many users around to test them and devs could build themselves
11:44:12amiconnTesting a bootbox.ucl or bootbox as archos.mod/ ajbrec.ajz is essentially no risk at all
11:44:58n1sok, I'll throw some .ucl's up there then
11:45:19amiconnMaking a complete flash image is somewhat involved.
11:45:38n1sbtw is the "-add=" thing needed for iaudio bootloaders?
11:45:47amiconnno
11:45:48n1sin scramble
11:45:53n1sah, thanks
11:46:15amiconnYou'd need to build flash/bootloader in addition to bootbox, and the flash/make_firmware tool
11:46:40amiconnThen you'd use make_firmware to build a flash image (well, actually two per archos model)
11:47:52amiconnTesting those is somewhat risky (might require serial boot mod in order to recover from a bad flash, or even unsoldering and reflashing the flash chip externally (for the _norom versions))

11:49:45amiconnThe (most?) archoses come in two versions: one which has a 64KB boot rom in the CPU, and one without that. The latter versions are relatively rare. They boot directly from the flash, so if that's hosed, only external flashing will help. The versions with boot rom have a serial monitor there, that allows loading some code, which in turn can be used for reflashing
11:50:11n1samiconn: so is testing just bootbox.ucl useful?
11:50:28amiconnIt is, since it tells us whether bootbox itself works
11:51:06*amiconn should probably make & test the flash images for the release
11:51:23amiconnCan't test fmr and recv2 myself though
11:52:57n1sdo the ondio fm and sp versions of bootbox differ?
11:54:01amiconnThe .AJZs do (different model id)
11:55:04amiconnHmm, in fact the .ucl does as well. Bootbox loads an .ajz from disk, hence also has to check the model id itself
11:55:14n1sok
11:55:37*amiconn double checks

16:07:15dionoeaHello. Is there some special aproval process to go through before adding a WPS tag to svn? (see FS #9368)

16:12:34Nico_Pdionoea: yes, it is. There's no special process, although adding manual changes to your patch is a plus
16:13:23dionoeayeah, I'll do that when I commit. It's just that adding and removing WPS tags all the time can be confusing for users so I though that maybe it'd be better to have the ok from other people first

16:15:29bluebrotherwell, there should be a consensus that we want those tags to be added ;-)
16:15:44bluebrotherbut that's kinda obvious :)
16:15:45dionoeaok, I'll wait for the consensus on the FS entry then :)
16:16:10dionoeaanyone here know the exact difference between WPS_REFRESH_STATIC and WPS_REFRESH_DYNAMIC?
16:17:45bluebrotherlooking at that patch it looks like a nice idea to me. Could possibly replace all those individual setting tags (like shuffle mode etc)
16:18:18dionoeaI still need to fix the conditional usage stuff and clarify the refresh setting
16:18:40dionoeas/fix/implement/
16:21:01dionoeahow do conditionals work btw? something like %?tagname<result if intval is 0|result if 1|result if 2|...> ?
16:21:11kugelamiconn: regarding FS #9360 (broken wps after statusbar toggle); I remember it was fixed sometime ago (at least the commit comment said so)
16:21:20soapI'd like these new tags, and some logic and math in the WPS code. ;) Conditionals based on the value of tags. If track=3 and replaygain=1 and volume>-20 then blah blah blah.
16:22:18soapIf playlist position > playlist length/2 then blah blah blah
16:22:22bluebrothernow convert the wps display to lua or something like that ;-)
16:22:34dionoeaYay! that would be awesome
16:22:50*dionoea 's already busy converting VLC modules to Lua ... and it's lots of fun
16:23:51dionoeathe only drawback would be the 200k or so increase in core size. Of course if you only include the base language and the rockbox specifics you could maybe bring that down a bit. :)
16:24:56svpeanyone in here who managed to extract the creative zen (the newer flash version) firmware from the update using zenutils? update_extract just fails while decompressing the firmware archive for me :/
16:28:46bluebrotherwell, if that replaces the old wps code, wouldn't that trim the binsize increase further?
16:29:20dionoeaYeah. I doubt that it would result in a negative binsize variation though
16:30:21dionoeaand it would introduce malloc in the core
16:32:08bluebrotherthat's bad
16:32:17Nico_Pdionoea: intval starts at 1 for conditionals
16:32:23dionoeaok.
16:32:46*dionoea wonders how to use a color setting in a conditional ...
16:33:01dionoeaNico_P: is the last conditional option equivalent to an "else" ?
16:33:38dionoealike if your value can range 1 to 10 but you only include 2 options in the WPS. Will values 2 to 10 map to the last condition option? or will 3 to 10 be discarded?
16:33:41Nico_Pdionoea: you can make it be like that
16:34:00Nico_Pyou define the behaviour in get_token_value
16:34:44*dionoea looks up get_token_value
16:35:25 Quit bughunter2 ("bye")
16:36:54dionoeaah ok, that function :)
16:39:17dionoeahow do you define the behavior if the value overflows the number of conditions specified in the WPS? (can't see anything related in there ... only the intval assignment ... or is that what the limit value is used for?)

18:11:35psyx1337here on page 8 and 9 I describe my problem and how it happend: http://www.anythingbutipod.com/forum/showthread.php?t=8953&page=8
18:14:15bluebrotherplease read the page I mentioned earlier. Plus, you have a problem using sudo. I won't explain here how to fix this, just "su -" instead
18:15:56bluebrotheryou might need to chmod +x e200tool too.
18:16:22psyx1337I think that "sudo ./e200tool recover BL_SD_BOARDSUPPORTSD.rom" doesnt work because on "lsusb" there is thw wrong ID at sansa
18:17:02bluebrotherwell, first sudo doesn't find e200tool. This has nothing to do with lsusb
18:17:55kugelpsyx1337: did you run "./e200tool init"?
18:18:25psyx1337no
18:18:26kugelpsyx1337: the usb id looks correct to me
18:18:33psyx1337rly?
18:18:53kugelI remember the id, I was once in a similar situationo
18:18:53rasherkugel: why is that not mentioned on the page, again?
18:19:18rasherpsyx1337: do the init, I'm quite sure that's it
18:19:21bluebrotherthe usb id gets changed once you initialized the connection
18:19:34psyx1337okay thanks to all who are trying to help me i switch to ubuntu now and try it :)
18:19:36rasherWhich for some reason isn't mentioned anywhere on that page
18:19:46bluebrotherplus, the error message you posted on abi shows that you haven't even succeeded executing e200tool ...
18:20:00kugelrasher: the init? afaik it's not necessary, but it ensures the sansa is found (i always used it, as it doesn't mean a downside)
18:20:11bluebrotherrasher: to make it harder using it (thus decreasing the possibility messing up your player)?
18:20:23rasherThat seems a bit un-Rockbox
18:20:25bluebrotherkugel: the init is necessary.
18:20:37rasherThe guide is wrong, as it stands
18:20:43kugelwell, then it should definitely be mentioned
18:20:54rasherPut huge warnings if you must, but don't hide necessary information
18:21:00bluebrotherI'm not sure I agree with that. It's not a rockbox page at all.
18:21:14bluebrotherbut feel free to nag Bagder about that ;-)
18:21:24rasherSansaE200Unbrick sure is

18:26:01*rasher thinks it's morally dodgy to post incomplete instructions to "save users from themselves", when you're at the same time preventing other users from fixing their issues
18:26:48bluebrotherwell, it's arguable. But if instructions are around people without a clue what they're doing will mess around with it.

18:29:51bluebrotherrasher: I'm not against adding the informations to the wiki. It's just that I can see a reason why they aren't put there.
18:30:02bluebrothertompsu: then decide if you want to do that or not.
18:30:03tompsui havent used or had itunes in years, thats the whole reason i put rockbox on
18:30:38tompsuwell, im not sure if im going to screw anything up if i do dismount it, thats why i asked

18:32:39*bluebrother sighs
18:32:54bluebrotherwell, obviously something is accessing the Ipod. This could even be windows explorer
18:32:58tompsuive been sighing too heh
18:33:25bluebrotherif you dismount the volume you can't access it it anymore, and all programs that do access it might run into problems or even crash.
18:33:26tompsuwell yes, since i put it into diskmode, its showing up under My Computer
18:33:43bluebrotherthen close explorer and the handle should get released.

19:23:15vitjabut take a look at firmware/export/powermgmt.h that uses spaces after #

19:26:52linuxstbvitja: What are you worried about?
19:27:30vitjano other files prefixed with usb- related to the arch in export/
19:29:18linuxstbYes, I was wondering about that. The other driver is usb-drv-arc.c, which seems to have all the register definitions in it.
19:29:57vitjayes but I think all registers should be defined in headers

19:30:35vitjabtw linux kernel goes this way
19:32:15linuxstbIs that .h file used for anything yet?
19:32:26*linuxstb tries to avoid the question...
19:33:14vitjahmm by idea that should be used only by usb-telechips.c that doesn't exist now
19:33:32vitjaand should be in firmware/target/arm/ as well as usb-telechips.c
19:34:24vitjamay be it's time to join tcc780 and tcc77x usb code?
19:35:02linuxstbLooks like there isn't any tcc780x code at the moment...
19:35:59linuxstbSo I think we can leave things as they are - I don't feel strongly about where that usb-tcc77x.h file should go, and it can always be moved later.
19:36:01vitjathere is usb-cowond2.c filled with stubs I hope tcc77x code should work too
19:36:14vitjaok
19:37:33vitjaI think shotofadds should test usb disable code on D2 target and then decide what to do
19:38:05linuxstbI see you've left Mike Sevakis as the (C) holder in audio-iaudio7.c - is that right?
19:38:41 Quit svpe ("leaving")
19:38:55vitjaof course I've added just two lines there and it's based on d2s one
19:39:59linuxstbOK. Well, I think I'll just do a couple of test compiles, and then commit. ;)
19:40:31vitjaok, but c100 and other tcc77x targets will fail
19:41:44linuxstbThose were going to be my test compiles...
19:42:06linuxstbWhat's broken on them?
19:42:24vitjapcm-telechips.c will get #error
19:42:46linuxstbI'm not sure if they still build without your patch. (the main Rockbox builds) - the bootloader builds should be unaffected.

19:43:44vitjawhen I was able to compile iaudio7 bootloader, normal build was a pain
19:44:32linuxstbI think I've got the main build for the logik dax port compiling, but haven't committed it. I'll need to clean that up, sync with your changes, and see how things work.

19:56:16allelewell I was getting compiler errors if I tried retrieving a value using two dimensions.

19:57:38linuxstbYes, but in memory they're the same.
19:58:06linuxstbBut yes, if you look at the .c files generated (e.g. in apps/bitmaps/native/) during a rockbox build, you can see that bitmaps are created as one-dimensional arrays.
19:58:55linuxstbAnd the lcd_bitmap() function takes a "const fb_data*" pointer
19:59:43alleleand native bitmaps can be changed in an application, correct?
19:59:59*linuxstb congratulates vitja on the green build table
20:00
20:00:16linuxstballele: What do you mean? What bitmaps specifically are you talking about?
20:00:43linuxstbThe ones converted from .bmp files are declared as "const", so no.

20:02:18alleleok, but if I made an array like the ones for native bitmaps without making it constant I would be able to use that as an argument for native bitmap functions, correct?
20:02:26kugelnow the iaudio7 should appear in the build table
20:03:23linuxstballele: What are you trying to do?
20:04:21alleleprettymuch make a complete bitmap and use blit instead of using drawpixel a large number of times
20:04:44 Join jhulst [0] (n=jhulst@unaffiliated/jhulst)
20:05:02linuxstbYou probably don't want to do that - you can access the LCD framebuffer directly and draw there.
20:05:14linuxstbAre you writing a plugin?
20:05:18alleleyeah
20:05:54linuxstbThen just use rb->lcd_framebuffer[]
20:06:18linuxstbFollowed rb->lcd_update_rect() or rb->lcd_update() to blit the framebuffer to the lcd hardware.
20:07:45alleleso I could use rb->lcd_framebuffer[x]=color to change the value of a pixel then?
20:08:22kugellinuxstb: amsinfo on the fuze firmware gives garbage and segfaulots
20:08:27kugelsegfaults*
20:09:25linuxstballele: Yes. Precisely, you want "rb->lcd_framebuffer[y*LCD_WIDTH+x] = color;"
20:09:30linuxstbkugel: Patches welcome ;)
20:10:07kugellinuxstb: Well, I assumed it should work. do you know on which firmware files it has been tested?
20:10:39alleleah, thanks so much linuxstb. I truly appreciate it
20:11:17linuxstbkugel: I can't remember, I think I tried it with various different firmwares, but possibly not the fuze.
20:11:33kugelthe firmware header and the firmware block seem to be fine, but the library blocks are messed up
20:11:36linuxstbkugel: But it was a long time ago, and I think more things have been discovered about the firmware format since then.
20:11:49linuxstb(I haven't been following the forum thread closely)

20:14:23linuxstbWhat is it?
20:15:14kugellinuxstb: the first library blocks seems to be read fine, but the second one is garbage (see http://pastebin.com/m78b69991)
20:15:16alleleits kind of like a doom engine, but more primitive and more open to modification at least in my opinion
20:16:34kugelshouldn't the first library block start at 0x1e400 (I thought it's 0x400 + n*0x1e000)
20:17:18linuxstbkugel: I'll have to leave that to you to work out - I'm not looking at the V2s any more, and am about to go shopping...

22:40:08 Quit ompaul (Client Quit)
22:40:11saratogabattery bench uses the queues a little, so I guess thats a good place to start
22:47:39amiconnsaratoga, linuxstb: The queue functions once were simple and understandable...
22:48:24saratogaamiconn: haha
22:48:28linuxstbamiconn: I've always agreed with your comments about the kernel changes...
22:48:42saratogalooks like i can just use post and wait without needing to care about the other functions
22:50:02amiconnProbably some of the kernel changes are necessary to make dualcore work properly, but the kernel looks quite complex and involved nowadays... back in time it used to be what one would call a microkernel...
22:52:34kugelamiconn: did you receive my message?
22:53:05saratogaactually, the event_set_state and event_wait functions are probably even easier to use
22:53:08amiconnActually the priority stuff helped on swcodec as well, but I don't think I will go that route when adding the pcm codec for archos
22:53:49amiconnThread priorities seem like overkill for the simple codec layer we'll need there. I think that decoding can be handled in isrs
22:54:52amiconnkugel: Yes. The bug is definitely still there
22:55:30saratogathough i like the declaration of event_init: void event_init(struct event *e, unsigned int flags)
22:55:34saratogaunsigned int flags
22:55:35amiconnAnd iiuc it's a slightly different bug than the one that was fixed
22:55:37saratogahow descriptive
22:55:56kugeloh
22:57:40amiconnpetur: *someone* with a bdm needs to test iriver bootloaders, both with and without certain patches
22:58:04peturhahaha 'someone with a bdm'
22:58:28*petur has been doing the stuff without...
22:58:38amiconnWhen basic operation is verified, the bootloaders then need testing on several individual targets
22:59:34saratogaany ideas waht "STATE_SIGNALED" might mean?
22:59:55bluebrothersome state has been signalled but not reacted upon?
23:00
23:00:12amiconnpetur: Regarding 9202 - I do not like this in its current form
23:00:44amiconnThe bootloader should go charging when battery is low, regardless of any buttons
23:01:10amiconn(a button could be an additional means though)
23:01:25LambdaCalculus37amiconn: I spoke to massiveH about recreating the patch using svn diff. When he comes back, you can mention that to him.
23:01:42saratogabluebrother: any idea why the init function would need to have that as one of it's flags?
23:02:02peturyes, I can see that it could use a voltage check so we do not spin the disk on low voltage
23:02:22bluebrothersaratoga: no, I was just guessing
23:02:23saratogaexample: ci->event_init(&sample_queue.emu_evt_reply, EVENT_AUTOMATIC | STATE_NONSIGNALED);
23:02:36massiveHwhat would an acceptable voltage be, I don't know the required voltage for HDD spooling up
23:10:31 Quit bmbl ("Woah!")
23:12:52amiconnpetur: Imo it should not spin the disk and start charging if voltage is low. Whether it should boot automatically after charging enough is debatable
23:13:30amiconnThe apple loaders do this, but it's not necessarily the best way.

23:15:20 Quit homielowe ()
23:16:23peturI think the point is to boot when voltage is ok, so that carmode and players in a craddle work fine
23:17:05saratogadoes the idle [0]: xx% indicate how much of the time a core spent idled?
23:17:06peturwhat we do after charging to an acceptible level isn't that important.... booting would be nice...
23:17:10saratogain the debug menu
23:17:20saratogaunder core and stack usage?
23:17:40 Join midkay [0] (n=midkay@rockbox/developer/midkay)
23:17:47amiconnNo, the percentages in that screen are stack usage
23:18:06amiconnThe 2 'idle' entries are the "idle stacks"
23:19:03amiconnI'm not 100% sure how they're used, iirc it has something to do with threads hopping cores, and cores without any thread
23:19:08*petur is still thinking about how to solve the char_height mess... probably need to add it as a function to lcd_xxx
23:19:15amiconnThe idle stacks only exist on the dualcore targets
23:19:24amiconnpetur ?
23:20:14peturamiconn: the cause of your 9361 is that char_height in the screens struct is only calculated at init so is always sysfont height
23:20:30amiconnDo we need that at all?
23:20:32petursomething JdGordon screwed up afaics
23:21:06peturamiconn: no, we could de the get_stringsize() on all those locations I guess
23:21:12peturs/de/do
23:21:22amiconnHmm, depends on how many locations do that
23:21:44kugelpetur: font_get(vp->font)->height should also do the job
23:21:49saratogaalright, got mp3 to work using the event functions, so in theory it should sleep the COP while when its waiting
23:21:50peturaround 50 I think
23:22:27peturkugel: good idea
23:22:48amiconnMaybe the screen api needs a bit of rework
23:22:57peturmaybe? :p
23:23:17amiconnkugel, petur: Using font_get directly doesn't account for the screen in question
23:23:37kugelamiconn: but the vp
23:23:55amiconnWhile I'm not very interested in overall multifont, I would definitely like to see dual font for targets with two screens
23:23:58kugeland the vp contains always the font being used
23:24:16amiconnAH, hmm
23:24:17kugelwith multifont, the vps would have different fonts
23:25:50saratogakugel: does the fuze have a recovery mode like the e200v2?
23:26:20kugelsaratoga: I didn't try yet. I've noticed the firmware format is possibly different, so I haven't tried to upload code
23:26:23amiconnOn X5/M5, having the same font for both screens isn't much of an issue, but it gets worse with increasing difference in resolution (i.e. -> H1x0 -> H300)
23:26:36kugeland thus I didn't reach a point where I need that
23:26:52saratogakugel: might want to try and get into recovery mode before you risk uploading code in case there isn't one like on the clip
23:26:53kugelit's not documented though
23:27:23kugelsaratoga: well, from what I've seen you need to corrupt the flash to get into that
23:27:45saratogakugel: what do you mean?
23:27:51kugelor shorting 2 pins(?) near the flash chip, but I haven't opened the player yet
23:28:04saratogai thought shorting the pins was the only way?
23:28:21peturkugel: do you happen to know how you get the current viewport pointer?
23:28:57 Part J-23
23:29:04kugelpetur: No, you need to add such a function
23:29:31kugelbut such a function would hardly be reliable, especially when we're gonna use vps for everything
23:29:53petur?
23:30:35kugelwell, imagine the statusbar viewport was set at last
23:31:00kugelI've played around with it during my custom list work
23:31:09peturso, that means you are drawing in there anyway
23:31:33kugeland you'll get problems receiving the current viewport, if functions don't set the current vp properly on exit
23:31:53peturthat would be a bug in that code...
23:32:05kugelyea, sure
23:32:42kugelpetur: I also see a use in having such a function, but linuxstb not when he first committed the vp stuff
23:33:34kugelpetur: You could add a function to the lcd drivers, returning the pointer
23:33:50petur... what I'm doing now ;)
23:34:14kugelBut I had problems when I did that, I got very weird values
23:35:41kugelsaratoga: no, it was discovered recently, that if the bootloader fails to boot from nand, it enters the "recovery mode" as well
23:36:12saratogahow does it know if a NAND boot fails?
23:36:17saratogabad checksum somewhere?
23:36:33kugelI don't know
23:36:45kugelI just repeat what I've read in the v2 porting thread
23:37:46peturbah, the more I look at it, the bigger the mess gets :(
23:38:13 Quit petur ("abort!")
23:38:26kugellol
23:42:07kugelWhy are the v2 people suddenly disappeared?
23:42:50*kugel hopes one of them has a clue about the fuze firmware
23:43:00bluebrotherhave they been around in this channel before?
23:43:11gevaertskugel: people sleep and have family and friends?

23:43:43bluebrothergevaerts: people have family? How that?
23:44:00gevaertsbluebrother: no idea. It's just a rumour I heard
23:44:06kugelbluebrother: at least funman. And there was no post in the thread for over 24h
23:44:32bluebrotherthat thread must feel abandoned ...
23:44:35kugelas i said, lies
23:44:37gevaertskugel: I've noticed that a lot of people only do rockbox things monday to friday
23:44:58kugelyou mean, not in their spare time?
23:45:01saratogathe V2 people don't seem to spend much time on IRC
23:45:12*kugel is puzzled
23:45:37kugelanyway, I'll just wait and look at my fuze
23:45:42bluebrotherkugel: spare time = weekday evening, family time = weekend?
23:46:19kugelhm, don't know
23:46:29kugelfor me, spare time is 24/7
23:46:42*gevaerts borrows some of that
23:46:47 Join EspeonEefi [0] (i=espeonee@CERULEANCITY.MIT.EDU)
23:46:56bluebrothergevaerts: any idea how we could steal kugel some?
23:47:21kugeljust wait 4 weeks, then my situation will change
23:47:32saratogasounds like you need a project
23:47:38kugeland I'll be also on of the poor poeple with limited time :S
23:47:54kugelsaratoga: like porting rockbox to v2s? :D
23:48:16 Quit massiveH ("Leaving")
23:50:30saratogai wonder if it would be possible to solder the hold switch on the V2 sansas to the nand chip enable, then you could force recovery mode just by flipping the hold switch
23:50:38*kugel never noticed the "quick edit" feature of the rockbox forum
23:50:44 Quit ender` (" If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you.")
23:51:24kugelsaratoga: well, afaik hold is the only button usable as of now
23:51:38gevaertssaratoga: if you're going that far, why not just add an extra switch?
23:52:25 Join cfp [0] (n=cfpcompt@abo-17-57-68.mts.modulonet.fr)
23:52:47saratogagevaerts: well, you could always resolder it back later, where as if you cut a hole for another switch thats harder to fix
23:53:25gevaertssaratoga: depending on internal layout (I haven't seen them) the extra switch could be in the battery compartment
23:54:51saratogawell, emailed hth letting him know theres actually a v2 recovery mode now, in case he wants to work on his v2 patch anymore
23:56:22kugelsaratoga: I emailed him too, he's said he's too busy atm
23:57:20saratogaah ok
23:57:55saratogakugel: why did you pick the fuze over the e200v2?
23:57:59saratogaeasier to make sure you got a v2?
23:59:57soapsaratoga, where did you "hide" the Mhz to mA numbers you ran on the Sansa?
