01:55:19MardoxxCurrently Rockbox is not yet available to users! All what the Rockbox bootloader does, is loading the _Original Firmware_!
01:55:20MardoxxBecause of technical limitations (blame Creative!), we can't put Rockbox on the device (yet) without taking your hard drive out...
01:55:40Mardoxxdoes that mean you need to develop a USB driver that gives direct access to the hard drive?
01:56:19Mardoxxor has anyone tried injecting modified firmware as its being uploaded?

04:35:09LinuxMafiahow can i convert video to sansa e200 format using transcode?
04:36:31LloreanLinuxMafia: It's just mpeg2 video with mp1/mp2/mp3 audio.
04:36:54LloreanIf you're looking for directions on how to actually use transcode, I suggest you approach their documentation though
04:37:45LinuxMafiaLlorean, i am gonna sleep soon , just want quick convert so i can see some video and put me sleep
04:38:33LloreanThat doesn't really make a difference in the whole "this channel is for questions about Rockbox, and there's a decent chance nobody here even uses transcode"
04:39:03LloreanQuestion here should be about the Rockbox aspects of it. If you have questions about what format you need, sure, but how to use other peoples' tools should be directed at the people who provide support for said tools.
04:39:12num1Llorean: maybe he was hoping there was a transcript script hanging around in /utils

06:39:04spyder045how much space will it take up?
06:39:20scorchevery little
06:39:39MarcGuayVery little. You can download the zip and look yourselfd.
06:39:43MarcGuay-d
06:40:11spyder045the zip file i downloaded...from the download link have the doom game or is that a plugin?
06:40:46 Quit MarcGuay ("ChatZilla 0.9.83 [Firefox 3.0.1/2008070208]")
06:40:54scorchethat is a plugin and if you want to know more, you should have a look at the wiki page "PluginDoom" and/or the manual
06:41:13spyder045ahh ok can you give me the wiki address?
06:41:55spyder045and lastly should i back up my ipod just in case and do you know of any program that will back up my entire ipod
06:42:04scorchecan you not find the wiki from rockbox.org?
06:42:53spyder045ahh ok i see it
06:42:57scorcheyou shouldnt need to (unless you need to format), but programs to back up your ipod are offtopic here
06:43:28spyder045ok thank you

06:49:39deltHello all

06:55:43deltdownloaded the tarball
06:56:23deltit's updated daily, right?
06:56:51LloreanYeah, but you really should use SVN to avoid any weirdness (and decrease the size of all future downloads you may make)
06:57:22deltah ok... does svn use some kind of compression?
06:57:39deltif it compresses each file individually, i can't see how it can do a better job than .tar.gz
06:58:58LloreanThe fact that it downloads *far* less files when you update will do a vastly better job at keeping the overall amount you download down though...
06:59:13deltoh duh *slaps forehead*
06:59:33deltanyway.. sleepy time for me, good night everyone
06:59:35LloreanThe majority of Rockbox SVN (in terms of filesize) tends toward files that are updated very rarely.

07:01:46Unhelpfulbrun0_|laptop: ah, you compared them? i'm really not sure how much porting might've been involved. many parts of rockbox are posix-ish, but it *is* an embedded environment, and in particular, doesn't have dynamic allocation.
07:02:41brun0_|laptopUnhelpful: no I didn't compare them but lots of files are still in the revision "Initial check-in of unmodified libmad code (libmad-0.15.1b) "
07:02:48Unhelpfulalso, targets don't typically have floating-point capabilities, or at least not decent ones. so i'd be surprised if there was absolutely *no* change from upstream on the decoder libraries.

07:06:33scottie7hi, I just installed rockbox on my Sansa e260 but it's still booting the sansa s/w after I powercycle it.
07:07:07scottie7i did a manual install ... extracted rockbox.zip & rockbox-fonts.zip into the root directory of my player, & then ran sansapatcher.
07:07:20brun0_|laptopUnhelpful: ok, thanks for the information
07:07:23scottie7all indications are that everything installed successfully - it just won't start rockbox.
07:07:29Unhelpfulbeyond that, you're going to need to ask a real developer, sorry :/

07:32:25Dhraakellianand the jpeg plugin doesn't appear to automatically rotate my 220x176 image to 176x220
07:32:36*Dhraakellian shrugs and does it manually from the computer
07:32:53LloreanWhy should it?
07:32:59Dhraakelliansome things do
07:33:05LloreanThat's not a reason.
07:33:07Dhraakellianas I said, *shrug*
07:33:08scottie7i seem to have been disconnected - not sure if what I said previously got through ...
07:33:17scottie7Unhelpful, rbutil segfaults on my system. I do not see any rockbox bootloader message at all.
07:33:19Lloreanscottie7: It was recommended you try rbutil.
07:33:24scottie7is there a different version of sansapatcher I could use/try?
07:33:37scottie7sansapatcher v0.6 recognises my player as "e200 found - /dev/sdb" ... my player is an e260 - is that significant?
07:33:46LloreanNo.
07:34:09scottie7Llorean, tried rbutil a few weeks ago - no luck.
07:34:13Gartralscottie7: try rbuti;
07:34:20Gartraloops, ok
07:34:24Lloreanscottie7: Where is the file rockbox.mi4 located on your player, exactly?
07:34:25scottie7:)
07:34:44scottie7Llorean, lemme look ...
07:35:21LloreanDhraakellian: If it were to rotate images it'd have to have some logic for which ones to rotate and which ones not to which would be unreliable at best in terms of getting it "right" for what the user wanted. Or we could just depend on the user to know and do it in advance.
07:35:54Gartralexif info interpreter?
07:36:05scottie7.rockbox/rockbox.mi4
07:36:12DhraakellianI suppose if the user has already scaled it down to the proper dimensions, they should also have rotated it
07:37:12LloreanGartral: That would more or less require there be something in the exif to designate the image should be rotated. If this is the case, why not just pre-rotate it?
07:37:34Lloreanscottie7: When does rbutil segfault?
07:37:37DarksairHi! Anyone ever experience "junk at end of line" error when doing rockboxdev.sh?
07:37:41Gartralexif info does carry rotation info if the app/system it came from is worth its source/weight in salt
07:40:19LloreanGartral: My point, more or less, is if it shouldn't be rotated on the host system, but should be rotated on the player, how would exif help?
07:40:37LloreanThe rotation info in exif is absolute, it gives the orientation of the image.
07:42:00Gartrala logical offset might work, since (at least the e200) some daps display long ways, a simple offset for the rotation might work
07:42:21Dhraakellian*thinks* I might've been thinking of other things with autorotate... photos from a camera, rather than a captioned screencap of something
07:42:45LloreanGartral: As in "rotate all images 90 degrees"?
07:43:02Dhraakellianfor ones that are wider than they are long, at least?
07:43:10Dhraakellianwider than tall
07:43:11LloreanAll that does is arbitrate "you must view your images landscape" which won't sit well for people who have portrait images.
07:43:15*Dhraakellian should get some sleep
07:44:05LloreanDhraakellian: I already mentioned that would be inconsistent at best, since the actual dimensions of the image don't actually tell you how it is best viewed when zoomed in.
07:44:30Dhraakellianif it's small enough to fit the screen unzoomed?
07:44:51Gartralthats why t has at least simple logic, if the pic is a landscape style, with rotation 0, have it set -90 in display, and like everything else in rockbox, it should be an option
07:45:02LloreanWhy not just ask people to pre-rotate images?
07:45:05LloreanIs it really difficult?
07:45:25Gartralno, but i think this is a neat idea
07:45:32Dhraakellianas I said above, *shrug* !;)

07:50:47_empweird
07:51:22Gartralscottie7: nope, but just to be sure, build your own
07:52:05*amiconn already thought about adding (optional) best-fit rotation to the jpeg viewer
07:52:20amiconnIt doesn't require reading exif at all, just the image dimensions
07:52:57amiconnThe initial stage should also apply a best-fit zoom
07:53:33Dhraakellianhmm
07:53:34Gartralamiconn: yea, i know, but the exif would produce (i think) better results, because it wont force the file to display one way of the other, it could be more dynamic
07:54:16DhraakellianI'll say this for Rockbox, saving a jpeg that rockbox can read is a lot simpler than getting the OF to display a bitmap without using the official media converter
07:54:23amiconnMy point is that it should be forced in order to make optimal use of the display

08:50:39*amiconn wonders whether we should provide higher gain settings on ipod G4 and Color for microphone recording
08:51:50amiconnCurrently the max. is 50dB (20dB mic boost + 30dB PGA gain), and even a proper (dynamic) microphone (Sony F-V9) instead of misused earphones aren't very sensitive at that level
08:52:44amiconnThe mic gain is programmable (0/13/20/29dB), but we currently fix it at 20dB, only using the PGA to adjust gain
08:52:51 Quit avis (Remote closed the connection)
08:53:02amiconnFurthermore we could also make use of the variable digital gain
08:53:30amiconnOtoh, there's already quite a bit of noise floor even at 50dB

08:55:14LloreanHow does it compare to other recording targets we have?
08:55:54amiconnH1x0 gives a bit more level at its max. setting (48dB) with the same microphone
08:57:51amiconnH300 will be the same, and I have no other target that works without an external mic without preamp
08:58:19Gartrali have an e200, how do i test?
08:59:03amiconnMaybe we should go for 29dB mic boost then? Changing mic boost on the fly together with PGA gain will cause clicks when the mic boost changes
08:59:39amiconnGartral: You'd need a mic, and another target for comparison. This wasn't a scientific test yet
08:59:53Lloreanamiconn: I don't know if clicks are a reason not to do it.
08:59:54amiconnI should probably run a test with a signal generator
09:00
09:00:02LloreanAs long as the settings separate they'll know when they're adjusting it.
09:00:08Gartralwell the e200s have built in mics
09:00:32amiconnLlorean: I was thinking about combined adjustment, giving a larger total range
09:00:36LloreanJust call the mic boost "None/Low/Med/High", leave the gain setting to the PGA and describe Mic Boost as possibly causing a click when adjusted in the manual?
09:01:19amiconnOn the iriver targets (UDA1380) we do combined adjustment of analog and digital gain

09:02:00LloreanIt's safer to there, though, right?

11:19:38linuxstbfunman: Yes, I had a quick look. I'm not sure what to do with it though - i.e. to either apply your patch, or to add it as a second way to run code on a v2.
11:20:17funmanit's tested on e200 & clip
11:20:35funmanthe default is resume OF so no need for buttons checking if you aren't going to hack on it
11:20:57funmanit also blinks the button led, and it was confirmed that it's the same gpio pin on clip & e200
11:21:07funmanbut there is no indication that it couldn't damage other players
11:21:44funmanso you can leave it as another (better :P ) option or remove the button led code and replace the existing code
11:26:19linuxstbI'm busy with my day job at the moment, but will try and look at it in more detail either late tonight or over the weekend.
11:26:59linuxstbI have a question though (which may be answered in the long forum thread...) - do you know if the code is run directly from ROM, or if it is copied to RAM first by a first-stage bootloader?
11:28:34funmanmy test show that it's copied to RAM, but ran from ROM
11:29:14funmanI tried to store a byte in memory between 0x0 and 128kB and read it back, but the store hadn't succeeded

11:29:53funmanalso in the patch I copy ROM into RAM before mapping RAM at 0x0, but it's just an extra precaution because when removing the copy the code works fine also
11:29:56funmanyes

13:47:17linuxstbI'm guessing you can still access the regular disk mode (SELECT+PLAY) ?

13:48:32linuxstbAh, so if the firmware partition is corrupted, it automatically goes into disk mode, unless you hold SELECT+LEFT, in which case it goes into DFU mode?
13:48:58funmanlinuxstb: did I left your requests unanswered when I was disconnected earlier ?
13:48:59LambdaCalculus37linuxstb: No, SELECT+LEFT is diagnostic mode. LEFT+PLAY is DFU mode, which you have to do at the Apple logo.
13:49:27LambdaCalculus37But yes, if I don't enter a key combo, it does go into disk mode automatically.
13:49:56LambdaCalculus37I just wish that iTunes wouldn't keep popping up constantly. :)
13:50:10linuxstbOK. And itunes recognises DFU mode, but can't communicate with the ipod in that state - it needs to be in disk mode?
13:51:05LambdaCalculus37Yep.
13:51:23LambdaCalculus37The only thing that I *could* do at this time is just restore and monitor the USB traffic.
13:52:02linuxstbThat will almost certainly be uninteresting - itunes will simply be writing the encrypted firmware image to the firmware partition.

14:04:12linuxstbcybertiger: How does the firmware upgrade process work? You can find info on the internals by opening it up and looking...
14:04:50cybertigerhrm, you mean run a usb snoop utility whilst doing a firmware upgrade ?
14:04:56cybertigerand work out what the hell it did ?
14:05:09vitja_linuxstb, where should I post update on iaudio7?
14:05:15linuxstbYes, but I was asking at a higher level than that - i.e. what do you have to do to upgrade a firmware file?
14:05:34linuxstbvitja_: As Llorean said earlier, flyspray is the best place.
14:05:40cybertigeryou run an executable, it detects the device, and upgrades the firmware.
14:06:25cybertigerthe device as far as I can tell functions as a normal usbstorage device.
14:07:14vitja_linuxstb, should I create new ticket?
14:07:59linuxstbcybertiger: What does the device do during this upgrade? Is it in "MTP mode" (available as a "media device") or "UMS" mode (i.e. a drive letter) ?
14:08:14linuxstbvitja_: Yes, each patch should be a new task. (the old task was closed)
14:08:18cybertigerI'll get back to you.
14:08:28cybertiger(don't know, don't have device to hand right this second).
14:08:33vitja_linuxstb, ok
14:08:39cybertigerthanks though.
14:08:42linuxstbcybertiger: Also, you could see if the upgrader writes any temporary files (e.g. C:\TEMP)
14:08:55linuxstbvitja_: Also, check your PMs...
14:08:59cybertigerI don't think I'm going to be that luck.
14:09:15markunlinuxstb: maybe we should try to get our hands on a shuffle 2g then and monitor what happens during a DFU retore
14:09:31advcomp2019cybertiger, another thing, does the update do a force reboot or do you have to unplug the usb cable?
14:09:36linuxstbmarkun: Yes, I was thinking that... My MP3 player cupboard is too full though...
14:10:06linuxstbmarkun: I'm guessing that it will simply transfer an encrypted firmware image though... :(
14:10:37markunlinuxstb: on the meizu you first send an unencrypted ARM flash util
14:10:52markunbut it doesn't have to be like this for the shuffle of coures..

14:57:03funmanho what's HW/HARP ?
14:58:19MarcGuayfunman: Yes. I meant the v1 players that use a HARP interface to access the NAND instead of direct.
14:59:04MarcGuayfunman: I've pretty much found the entire SD driver but, honestly, don't understand it well enough to do anything with it at this point.
14:59:04funmanbut does this tool operate on v2 players as well ?
14:59:41MarcGuayfunman: v2 hardware, no. The sansa firmware referencing might be confusing us. Check out the c100 port page and the m200 port pages.

15:00:10funmanMarcGuay: we couldn't find direct addressing of NAND registers in the clip firmware

17:05:31kronflux_LambdaCalculus37: ah. alrighty.
17:06:35LambdaCalculus37It took, but like I said, got stuck when clearing the status. I think it's because my approach is a little kludgey, since I just copied the m6sl way of doing things and changed what needed to be changed.

17:51:51kronfluxwell, unless we have a spare nano2g laying around we can trash, I dont think we'll get very far with that.
17:51:51*LambdaCalculus37 is just confused about why "flash" has to be used to describe so many things
17:52:22*kronflux agrees
17:52:25GodEaterto save further confusion, I think in future we should refer to the Nano's usual storage as it's "disc"
17:52:26GodEater :)
17:52:33LambdaCalculus37Agreed.
17:52:40kronfluxindeed.
17:52:57GodEaterthe way to really scupper the flash rom might be to do a firmware upgrade
17:52:59LambdaCalculus37So, "firmware" for the firmware partition, "disc" for the storage, and "flash" for the flash ROM.
17:53:01GodEaterand hard reset in the middle
17:53:23GodEaterthis might really really screw the ipod though
17:53:36GodEaterso I do not encourage you to do so - it'll be your decision :)

17:53:55GodEaterindeed - but that might constitute fraud :)

18:38:20svpemcuelenaere: just got some time to look at the ZEN binary in IDA. any hints on how to figure out it's entry point?
18:38:34mcuelenaerehmm good question
18:38:38mcuelenaerewhat segments do you have?
18:38:46mcuelenaereand the ZEN uses an ARM core, right?
18:38:53svpeyes
18:39:48svpehttp://pastie.org/private/khwknefldqy6h5hmvs2ng
18:40:26svpethat are my segments. i'm currently looking at the 'real' firmware (i.e. after rescue mode) so i might find the entrypoint by taking a look at the loader code.
18:40:30mcuelenaeremy guess would be the 40000 addres
18:40:43mcuelenaereor the 002800
18:41:09mcuelenaereah, FRESC is a simplified version of the 'real' fw
18:41:52funmanlinuxstb: LambdaCalculus37 FS #9396

18:43:31svpeyea, i have it on my hdd but didn't look at it yet. i first want to have the disassembled firmware in IDA :-)
18:43:40mcuelenaere0x0 is clearly the entry point

19:53:08*gevaerts is busy uploading current 3.0RC builds
19:54:32J-23maybe remove opt "archos" and move its contents to "swcodec"?
19:57:08gevaertsThat would be good enough for the release, but I think we also want this paragraph in the development branch, so I think it's a bit more involved
19:58:00gevaertsMaybe add options called "release30" and "unreleased" in platform/* and then \opt on those?

20:56:32amiconnImo rockblox1d should be moved to 'Demos'
20:56:58LoopfrogI guess the root of my problem could be that I had some serious trouble with my X5 recently and as part of all that, I formatted the harddrive, excpecting that all old files necessary files should return, as stated in a forum. I was hoping that there still would be a solution.
20:57:03Loopfroggevaerts: Yes.

21:13:29d1sturbgeva, I'm not sure if it's charging or not. The screen is blank, it doesn't say "Do Not Disconnect." o_0

21:14:28gevaertsd1sturb: By charging I mean "plugged in to something that provides power". It won't give any feedback for a while
21:14:28dionoead1sturb: try to reset it (menu + play or something like that for 10 seconds)
21:14:42dionoeaI've had my ipod video freeze like that a couple of times
21:14:58d1sturbI've tried resetting, but the screen remains blank
21:15:12d1sturbI guess I'll just leave it connected to the computer over night and see what happens

21:15:57Strife89dionoea: My brother has an iPod (Nano 3G); I think he had to reset it with Menu+Select, but I'm not sure.

21:43:18*amiconn reiterates his comments regarding calendar.rock and rockcalendar once more
21:43:50amiconnCalendar is made for small screens, but *only* for those.
21:44:15amiconnRockcalendar runs on multiple targets, but not on small-screen ones.
21:44:48gevaertsamiconn: does calendar.rock work properly on target?
21:44:54amiconnImo both should be combined into one, properly working, nice and clean calendar plugin
21:45:04amiconnNow, any takers?
21:45:42amiconngevaerts: Not sure. Last time I tried it did work properly, but it was only a small test
21:46:00gevaertsamiconn: the days are off by two in the sim here
21:46:06amiconnI think whoever takes this task should have an actual use for a calendar plugin (I don't)
21:46:24rashergevaerts: your task is a bit light on details
21:46:34gevaertsrasher: correct. I'll fix it
21:47:10amiconnCalendar is correct on target (w/o your fix...)
21:48:03gevaertsmy fix shouldn't change that. It only fixes header printing

21:49:33amiconnBtw, I don't get a segfault without your fix
21:49:49gevaertsIt probably depends on exact memory alignment

23:55:25funmanis there any usecase ? maybe to cause delay
23:55:58amiconnEither the optimisation level for that part of code was low, and/or the firmware is compiled from a generic source
23:56:24amiconnBesides, using 'bx' is special, as it allows switching between arm and thumb code
