#rockbox log for 2008-10-08

00:00:02linuxstbrblib?
00:00:16fophillipsrblib.py, linked to on the wiki page
00:00:19fophillipsPerusing the source now
00:00:21fophillipshttp://www.rockbox.org/twiki/pub/Main/TagcacheDBFormat/rblib.py.txt
00:00:39denesgevaerts: thanks for the commit
00:01:09gevaertsdenes: the only way to work on it with more people :)
00:01:11denesgevaerts: but I think changing the lcd_sleep values in the lcd detection routine is maybe not a good idea, as they were taken straight from the OF
00:01:29*linuxstb grumbles about potentially useful code being lost in the wiki, rather than lost in flyspray
00:02:01denesgevaerts: so meizu knew what they were doing, than those numbers could have been in fact correct
00:02:12deness/so/so if/
00:02:13gevaertsdenes: it took several seconds. That's clearly not right
00:02:27denesgevaerts: right, but at 200 MHz it is needed
00:02:53gevaertsPossibly, but at 200MHz they are wrong as well. We need to find out what units those are
00:03:07denesgevaerts: those are busy loop counters in the OF
00:03:12funmanlinuxstb: should I submit the clip lcd driver for committing ? mkamsboot isn't finished yet, and my linker script is hastily hacked.
00:03:25denesgevaerts: 166670 and 2000040
00:03:43denesgevaerts: and the lcd_sleep(100) after that also
00:03:51linuxstbfunman: Don't you need to submit the patch that adds the Clip to the build system first? Or is that done?
00:04:09denesgevaerts: now all other values are just guesses, that's true
00:04:13funmanlinuxstb: no that isn't done, because I fear most of it is incorrect
00:04:30gevaerts2000040 takes a _long_ time with the default clock.
00:04:39linuxstbfunman: Then just post the patch and pester people to take a look.
00:05:02funmanshould I use the flyspray entry with the patch for E200 (with as3525 linux code) or open a new one ?
00:05:05denesgevaerts: well we shouldn't be using default clock for very long
00:05:25linuxstbfunman: I would say a new one.
00:05:39denesgevaerts: I will try it on my m3, but I am afraid the current delay will be too little at 200MHz
00:06:04gevaertsdenes: let me know what you find. I'll fix it as soon as I know more (but not today, I'm tired)
00:06:13denesgevaerts: ok

00:11:08Waldo000000quick question, looking for a point in the right direction: pressing "Display+Power" does not start morse input mode on the m:robe. Should I look at apps/keymaps/keymap-mr100.c as a start?
00:11:45 Join Zarggg [0] (n=zarggg@65-78-69-194.c3-0.eas-ubr6.atw-eas.pa.cable.rcn.com)
00:12:53linuxstbWaldo000000: Yes, and compare with somewhere that morse is known to work - e.g. the iriver h1x0
00:13:07n1sWaldo000000: that and possibly apps/recorder/keyboard.c
00:13:36Waldo000000linuxstb: n1s: thanks
00:14:49linuxstbWaldo000000: Seems that keyboard.c is the place that needs fixing.
00:15:37Waldo000000linuxstb: what are your thoughts?

00:16:25linuxstbKBD_MORSE_INPUT isn't being defined. You need to add an "#elif" into the series of #if/elif statements near the start of the file for your device, and add "#define KBD_MORSE_INPUT"

00:17:47Waldo000000linuxstb: excellent, i'll give it a go
00:17:56linuxstbButtons send two events - one when pressed, and one when released. BUTTON_REL is a bit which is set when the event is a release event.
00:19:06Waldo000000linuxstb: ah, thanks

01:03:24gevaertsyes
01:03:37gevaertsYou can attach files there

01:05:02Waldo000000oh, HZ is hertz i guess...
01:05:06markungevaerts: does one of the M3 LCD inits look to you as one of the S6D series?
01:05:34gevaertsmarkun: I didn't look yet
01:05:59markunperhaps it would be possible to read out the ID, then we can start to look for the datasheet, just for completeness
01:06:40markunperhaps there is some convention to read out IDs for LCD driver cips
01:06:42markunchips
01:06:48Waldo000000what is ACTION_KBD_SELECT_REM? sorry for these questions, let me know if there is documentation for this kind of stuff
01:07:55gevaertsWe could try. I doubt if there is a general cross-manufacturer convention though
01:07:57funmanWaldo000000: I don't know if there is any documentation, but you can use grep -r ACTION..|grep -v \\.svn to get definition/other usges
01:08:43gevaertsBut on the other hand it doesn't seem unlikely that they are all s6d ones
01:08:57Waldo000000funman: yep, tried that. thanks anyway, i'll keep trying to piece it together

01:15:41gevaertsThat's true
01:16:35markunfor samsung screens it makes sense to have a samsung LCD driver, but weren't some supposedly from toshiba?
01:17:48gevaertsyes indeed

01:20:44gevaertsIt's not gamma. They are really off

01:27:42toffe82is it the same size ?
01:27:58markunalso 2.4" I think
01:28:13toffe82could be :)
01:28:49toffe82there is no picture of the inside on the wiki? the links are broken
01:28:53gevaertsThey are the same size, yes
01:29:34markuntoffe82: meizu has changed the screens a few times, so those might be from samsung
01:30:53markuntoffe82: I don't see any init code. Is it done by the OF?
01:31:48toffe82I don't know but if it is the same , it is the same init as the F

01:37:46n8ofsp8dsi know there isnt support for 6g
01:38:24n8ofsp8dsi was saying it in genaral
01:38:56krazykiti didn't realize we needed reminders of that fact.
01:39:07n8ofsp8dswow sorry
01:39:14n8ofsp8dswasnt reminding

01:44:15Llorean"still no firmware for 6g" is a statement, not a question

02:49:28xchrisxthanks
02:49:38funmanwho is working on it ?
02:49:58LambdaCalculus37funman: MarcGuay added the initial bits of the port into SVN.
02:50:20xchrisxyeah i saw he was in here but i think he's afk
02:51:24LambdaCalculus37The c100 is TCC770-based; the m200 and Logik DAX are as well. So those ports all, in a way, benefit one another.

04:13:47ameyerhedsick: do you happen to have a Windows or Linux box?
04:13:56hedsickno... just this macbook pro...
04:13:59*ameyer says that assuming its an OSX thing
04:14:01hedsicki run ubuntu with emulation
04:14:20hedsickbut im not sure how to get my ipod to mount in the emulation
04:14:29ameyerhmm
04:15:09*ameyer wonders if whatever rockbox uses to unzip on OSX ignores directories starting with "."
04:17:04hedsickhm
04:18:40ameyerrbutil downloads the ipod video 30gb build for all 5/5.5g ipods, right?
04:18:41zeameyer: you sure its not just hiding them from you?
04:18:52ameyerze: not an osx user
04:19:18zeor uh, from hedsick?
04:19:27ameyerit could theoretically explain the issue Leo Laporte and hedsick is having though
04:19:35ameyerare having?
04:19:56hedsickwhen i do it through rbutil, it says everything completes
04:20:05hedsickbut then nothing is on my ipod except for the bootloader
04:22:20ameyertry downloading the zip from rockbox.org and manually unzipping it in your ipod's root directory
04:23:23ameyerif you haven't already

07:51:52*B4gder puts his toe into the growing top-posting debate of the month
07:55:38scorchenot another one...
07:55:56LloreanB4gder: I shouldn't really have responded to the first round of responses.
07:56:51Lloreanscorche: Nobody's really saying "Top posting is right." They're juts complaining at me for how I chose to bring it up, which I really should've just ignored.
07:56:53B4gderwell, I believe they are unavoidable
07:57:13scorcheLlorean: well, complaining at you is the local pastime, no?
07:58:19Lloreanscorche: In their defense, I probably shouldn't have assumed they were using email clients intelligent enough to show them what email I was responding to, I guess.
07:59:27scorche"In addition, I use Apple's Mail.app which replies with quoted text and cursor placed at the top."...is it really so hard to delete a few lines and click below them?
08:00
08:00:07Lloreanscorche: Apparently, deleting lines is difficult. You'll notice most people who stop top posting swap to fullquotes where they reply at the bottom, instead of contextual quotes.
08:00:25scorcheit takes 2 seconds...*maybe* 3
08:00:27*scorche sighs
08:00:36ameyeror just accept that people are idiots...
08:03:35LloreanB4gder: Would the Cowon D2 count as a "New player" too, or has it's potential permanent (or semi-permanent) stalling point really disqualified it?
08:04:15B4gdernew player in what context you mean?
08:05:17LloreanI guess, within the context of that thread. Players with upcoming Rockbox support that are still being sold new.
08:05:28LloreanI'm just really not sure I understand how stuck the D2 is or not.

12:43:18pondlifeI'm more interested to see if that (a) fixes the problem and (b) doesn't give a bad red delta
12:44:05amiconnIt's the (-1 == var) instead of (var == -1)

12:45:12pondlifeIt looked inconsistent (and horrible) to me, but know I know better

12:45:43B4gderDementio: yes, but you often want -p as well
12:45:47pondlifeor just patch -p0 blah.diff
12:45:47amiconnI don't think that kind of protection is necessary (it looks odd), but changing that in the same patch isn't nice imho
12:46:01pondlifeSorry
12:46:09B4gderit only looks odd when you're not used to it ;-)

12:46:49Dementiok
12:47:01pondlifeDepends on where the patch author made the diff from

12:51:40markunThe only thing is that I don't know his name
12:51:45markun:)
12:51:45Lloreanpondlife: No harm in editing a patch file manually as long as you're careful and your editor doesn't screw with line endings or anything.
12:52:00Dementiovim ftw
12:52:03*Llorean really, REALLY wishes contributors on the tracker wouldn't put something else in the real name field.
12:52:36markunpixelma: I found his email address. I'll ask him.
12:53:01markuneven found his name :)
12:53:19markunShould I first ask him if he's ok with me putting his name in?
12:53:56B4gderbtw, is there actually anyone who have objected to be in the credits?
12:54:05B4gderI can't recall any
12:54:09amiconnpondlife: are those saved_* variables necessary? I thought the values in tc are usually identical with the ones in globals_settings, so that you can just set the ones in tc, and restore afterwards from global_settings.

12:54:15pixelmaB4gder: Llorean ;)
12:54:36pondlifeamiconn: It was already there, so I thought it safer

12:55:16pondlifeamiconn: I don't have a player with me at the moment, so better safe than sorry..
12:55:27*pixelma wonders if it is a good idea to commit just the changes to CREDITS for the name of the pegbox colour graphics author to avoid conflicts later

12:56:43amiconnpondlife: Huh? How could they have been there before if your patch adds them?
12:56:47markunB4gder: you think I should just do it?
12:57:07pondlifeThe old code saved dirfilter
12:57:18pondlifeI renamed the variable though
12:57:33B4gdermarkun: yes, that's not a question we use to ask and given the history of zero no answers I think that's pretty safe
12:57:43Lloreanpixelma: At the time, I very much liked to think of myself as "just someone helping out"
12:58:00amiconnpondlife: It saved it because it messed with global_settings directly. Now global_settings *is* your backup.
12:58:30amiconnAlso, the direction reversal would be more efficient using a table lookup instead of the switch()
12:58:30pondlifeIt saved the dirfilter, I now do the same for dir_sort.

15:42:39aurel42Hi folsx
15:42:43aurel42folks, too
15:43:29aurel42I need someone to clear something up for me... rockbox 3.0 should support cover art w/o patches, is that correct?
15:44:22markunyes, it should
15:45:08markunI've never used it myself, but here you should find the info: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/AlbumArt
15:45:53aurel42I've used the Picard client (Musicbrainz) and the cover art plugin to add covers for most of my albums, as a cover.xxx file and within the ID3 tags, but on all themes I've tried I'm only seeing the "no cover" pic. I'll check the wiki, thanks.
15:46:24aurel42Ah, there we go.
15:47:08aurel42Pics in files are not supported, and the cover.xxx needs to be bmp.
15:47:31aurel42No problem. ImageMagick's convert is my best pal.
15:48:40markunaurel42: maybe someone will improve album art to support jpeg files and embedded jpegs, but for now this is all
15:48:48markunwhich player are you using? (just curious)
15:49:24aurel42markun: iPod Video 30gb
15:49:38aurel42And I'm SO happy with Rockbox.
15:50:05markunand the ipod video is not even such a good rockbox target. Maybe if we some day find out how to program the broadcom chip..
15:50:35aurel42I even used ever since I got the iPod, even though it kinda raced through the battery power in earlier versions.
15:50:49aurel42-even
15:50:53markunbut that's mostly fixed now, right?
15:51:18aurel42Yeah, I'm getting 10+ hrs now.
15:51:36markunLlorean: do we have a schedule for the next release?
15:51:39aurel42With Apple's software, it's supposed to be 14hrs, iirc.
15:51:40LambdaCalculus37markun: Yes, I'm now getting 16+ hours on mine (although I changed the stock battery).
15:51:57markunaurel42: at least we're getting closer
15:51:58 Quit BigFridge ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
15:52:06Lloreanmarkun: Late December, Early January as an approximation right now.
15:52:15aurel42LambdaCalculus37: what type are you using now, if I may ask?
15:52:38markunLlorean: nice! Do we have some features we would like to have done by then?
15:52:46LloreanThe goal is a 3-month cycle, but we've never decided if it's "2.5 months + 2 weeks freeze" or "3 months + 2 weeks freeze" and if the cycle starts from when the freeze ends, or when the release is "released"
15:53:00LambdaCalculus375.5G iPod video 30GB, with a new 580mAh battery (up from the stock 400mAh battery).
15:53:22aurel42LambdaCalculus37: ty
15:53:22Lloreanmarkun: Nothing specific at this time. *I* personally would really like to see USB go in so it can be tried by a wider user base (we can disable it again for some/all targets in the release if it works for too low a percentage)
15:53:29LloreanI'd also like to see Sansa Chargin, and iPod Serial
15:53:32LloreanCharging
15:53:35*LambdaCalculus37 points aurel42 to http://www.ifixit.com
15:54:11LloreanBeyond that, we don't usually plan, obviously. I'm kinda hoping this can be a "feature heavy" release, and then we can try to make 3.2 a feature light release in the hopes that it gains some added stability by trying not to put in too many big features during that period.
15:55:59amiconnLlorean: USB is known to be buggy on PP. This is not the stack's problem, as it works fine on the beast. Hence it shouldn't be enabled on PP unless the cause is found
15:56:35Lloreanamiconn: It should be enabled in "current build" builds for the sake of, at the very least, hearing more about conditions in which it is problematic.
15:56:50LloreanIt absolutely shouldn't be enabled for Sansas yet, since it can corrupt things, though.
15:56:51amiconnAnd before adding any charging that further messes up powermgmt, a rework of powermgmt is required, imo
15:57:19amiconnLlorean: This corruption is not USB related at all, but SD driver related
15:57:30Lloreanamiconn: If the charging works, and the rework is in a limbo of "who knows when it'll be done", then the charging should go in so users can use their players like normal people without having to deal with special caveats.
15:57:31 Join J-23 [0] (n=aldwulf@a105.net128.okay.pl)
15:57:39LambdaCalculus37amiconn: I've been enabling USB on my iPods for some time now, and I've never had any issues with file transfer or charging thus far.
15:57:43Lloreanamiconn: I know it's not USB related, but the primary way to see it is via USB.
15:58:00amiconnLlorean: Putting the charging in and further messing up powermgmt by that would be a bad move
15:59:00amiconnLlorean: Ever tried copying something while music is playing (with a somewhat demanding codec), or while the cpu was boosted for some other reason?
15:59:17Lloreanamiconn: Any particular reason, re the charging, other than "it means more work for the rework if it ever happens"?
15:59:42Lloreanamiconn: As I said, the *primary* way. The majority of users will use USB a lot more than meeting the conditions you just described.
16:00
16:00:10amiconnThe reason is that it will make the *necessary* rework harder. If this rework isn't done, many other targets which now don't do proper powermgmt will probably never see proper powermgmt, imo
16:00:45markunamiconn: what kind of rework is needed?
16:01:28Lloreanamiconn: Frankly, the patch is pretty darn short. If it adds more than five minutes to the rework that wouldn't already be necessary (in order to rewrite this patch to work with the reworked version) I'd be frankly very surprised.
16:01:28DementioLlorean, kinda late response, but do you by chance use a CF drive on your ipod?
16:01:54Dementio(was watching heroes)
16:01:57LloreanDementio: Don't think I ever said I had an iPod.
16:02:03amiconnA fundamental one: change the powermgmt thread loop so that it spends most time in the loop waiting for events instead of in special "sleep" functions
16:02:04Dementiooh
16:02:06LloreanAs it stands, I do, but not one you can put a CF card in.
16:02:23Dementiooops, damn autocomplete

16:05:28LambdaCalculus37Dementio: No, I'm still using the hard drive.
16:06:37Dementioreason is, i know not all cf cards work with rockbox without making a minor code change, i was wondering if it's possible for the determination to be made and the change applied based on which is used

16:10:51Dementioit's only one line of code that allows the cards to work or not
16:11:20Dementioonly problem i can think of is that i really think it'd have to be done at compile time
16:11:43ZagorDementio: only if we cannot detect it runtime, which I think we can

16:12:36Dementiogetting it
16:12:46markunamiconn: working towords more event driven code in general sounds like a good idea to me
16:13:14ZagorMarcGuay: I'm guessing the 8MB release was hand-built by someone? it's such a rare target that it doesn't make sense to always build it.
16:14:08aurel42markun: you said someone might improve the album art code to include jpg...
16:14:20markunaurel42: yes
16:14:39aurel42markun: but there's already that image plugin that can display the cover.jpg files... couldn't that code simply be reused?
16:15:02DementioDEV_RS = 0x3ffffef8; in system-pp502x.c
16:15:23Dementioif that line's removed, the card works
16:15:59ZagorDementio: and if it's there, harddisks don't work?
16:16:24Dementioif it's there, hard disk's work, but some cf cards don't
16:16:53Zagorsorry I meant the other way around. if you remove it, cf works but disks don't?
16:17:03markunaurel42: I think it would at least be a good starting point. We want to keep the rockbox core as small as possible so someone implementing it would have to take that into account.
16:17:04LloreanZagor: If I recall, I'm not certain, the cost of having it is in battery life.
16:17:12LloreanIt doesn't prevent anything from working it to do it the way that works for CF cards.
16:17:13ZagorLlorean: aha
16:17:23Dementioi haven't tried hard disks with that line removed, so i'm not sure
16:17:34aurel42markun: I see. Luckily, the only language I can write code in is Commodore Basic v2 (38911 basic bytes free).
16:17:44LloreanZagor: IIUC it was part of the general PP battery life improvement. But I could be misremembering.
16:18:14markunaurel42: now you just have to learn C and you'll be the pefect person for the job ;)
16:18:17aurel42markun: well, and all the other languages that allow me to write Commodore Basic v2 style... like PHP. ;)
16:18:29*Dementio needs to learn C also
16:18:59markunif you know some programming I don't think learning C will be that difficult
16:19:03aurel42markun: you got a point there, back then we kinda knew how much a single byte is worth. :D
16:19:07Dementiowell.....
16:19:10LloreanZagor: I think Petur was the one really looking into CF card compatibility recently. He might know more.
16:19:14Dementioi once knew BASIC

16:19:30DementioLlorean, yes he was
16:19:35n1sMarcGuay: could you test the newest nano bootloader in FS #9369?
16:19:35Dementiohe was the one helping me out
16:20:03markunstrings are handled very differently in C and then there are pointer, but otherwise I don't think there is that much to get used to.

16:23:24LloreanZagor: Reverse engineered. I think a lot of them are even only known via testing (buschel disabled everything he could detect drew power, working out which were absolutely necessary for Rockbox to function)
16:24:56aurel42Oh, dang, it's not enough to convert the cover.jpg to cover.bmp, I also need to scale them to the size my theme expects?

16:25:46MarcGuayaurel42: There are some handy tools on the AlbumArt page that can do this pretty quickly.
16:25:49aurel42I'll go for 100x100, though, I like the cabbie v3 theme.
16:26:01aurel42MarcGuay: "find" and "convert" are my friends. ;)
16:26:01LloreanZagor: One problem, IIUC, is that a lot of CF cards don't necessarily conform to various specs, so they aren't consistently reliable for identification.
16:26:21Dementiothat's what i'm looking at now
16:26:37Dementio"View disk info" to be precise
16:26:57ZagorLlorean: well many disks don't either. are you saying cf card makers are much worse than disk makers?

16:34:39aurel42I got a UI question, is there a way to replace a running playlist with a new one? I know I can add to the current playlist (insert/queue), but I kinda often feel the need to "forget" the current playlist and just start a new one without stopping the music.
16:35:32aurel42I kinda think I had that before, perhaps it's just a matter of some option under Settings?

16:40:30Zagorby reading the ATA specification. here's a link to a fairly late draft: http://t13.org/Documents/UploadedDocuments/project/d1410r3b-ATA-ATAPI-6.pdf

16:41:04pixelmaaurel42: just start the new playlist be chosing a new song/playlist to play - just a short button press, not using the context menu
16:41:13amiconnDementio, Zagor: It is not possible to distinguish CF cards and microdrives in a generic way
16:41:27Dementiodamn
16:41:37amiconnMicrodrives also state that they support CFA
16:41:48Zagoramiconn: aha
16:42:26amiconnAnd the ata identify info of many devices (both harddisks and CF cards) is often incomplete or incorrect apart from the basic info that is necessary to make them work
16:42:38Dementioi noticed that
16:42:57Zagoryes that has always been so
16:43:13amiconnBtw, CF cards are supposed to work with a current rockbox without modification

16:49:49Dementiobut, if you think of something, i'm willing to try it
16:50:32MarcGuayaurel42: The expected album art size for the current theme is also available under System->Rockbox Info.
16:51:05aurel42That's even better, I'm kinda lost when it comes to the tags in the .wps file.
16:51:08MarcGuayThat was a JdGordon sneak-attack nobody seems to have noticed.
16:51:21Zagoramiconn: that table looks less pessimistic than you do. the only drive that reports CFA is a CF+II drive
16:51:39amiconnYes, but it's a drive, and needs spindown
16:51:43pixelmaaurel42: since last week or so, the album art size of the loaded wps should be displayed in the "Rockbox info" screen under "System", haven't tried myself yet though...
16:52:03aurel42Ah, that's why. I'm using the 3.0 release, that doesn't have that info.
16:52:14aurel42What's the .wps tag I should be looking for?
16:53:19MarcGuay%Cl I think. CustomWPS wiki page knows.
16:53:37aurel42yup, %Cl
16:53:40Zagoramiconn: so the fact is that there is one single drive that won't spin down if we implement. and that drive is in compact-flash form-factor and hence rather unlikely for anyone to use.
16:53:51aurel42120x120, phew. :D
16:54:15MarcGuayIs there a reason the System->Version menu option isn't called Credits? The version number is better retrieved through the Rockbox Info entry.
16:55:00LloreanZagor: Except in minis where that's the native form factor.
16:55:44ZagorLlorean: sure, but this drive is only available in 6GB whereas flash drives are available in much larger sizes (and cheap too)

19:46:05amiconnOn the laptop I mentioned several times already: Pentium M 1.5GHz, 1GB RAM, 120GB HDD, WinXP Pro
19:46:41XavierGramiconn: so you never build on a multicore machine?

19:47:08gevaertsgood reason :)
19:47:10 Join linuxstb [0] (n=linuxstb@rockbox/developer/linuxstb)
19:47:31XavierGrwell for me building without -j is a major resources waste
19:47:45XavierGrbuild time can be increased as much as 4 times without it
19:47:59amiconnDo you use -j <number_of_cores> or plain -j ?
19:48:48XavierGrplain -j, there was a discussion here that conlcuded that -j ~= with -j "number of cores"
19:48:53XavierGrso I sticked to that
19:49:01amiconnIt isn't
19:49:38amiconnPlain -j will cause 'make' to start as many parallel processes as the dependencies (or rather: independencies) allow, which can be dozens, even on a single core machine
19:50:22XavierGramiconn: yes but without any extra cores the result will be the same, right?
19:50:31amiconnnope
19:50:42gevaertsSo that could cause interesting issues depending on the scheduler. I'd try -j "number or cores", and -j "number of cores + 1 or 2"
19:50:45amiconnIt could be faster or slower, depending on the RAM, the disk, the filesystem...
19:51:13XavierGrhmm it seems then that it is more complicated than I though
19:51:15XavierGr+t
19:51:28amiconnAlso, plain -j will increase the chance that 'make' will stumble upon dependency problems
19:51:56XavierGrthat explains the hanging while building the tools
19:52:58amiconnWhat does rockboxdev.sh have to do with the tools, btw?
19:53:27XavierGrI meant when building the crosscompilers
19:53:35XavierGrchanged all make lines to make -j

20:00:58gevaerts"easiest using a virtual machine" :)
20:00:59amiconnI never used it for regular development, only for tests. Too cumbersome, imo.
20:01:29XavierGramiconn: yeah I meant "using a virtual machine", because in the end cygwin is by far the easiest
20:01:48*Bagder thinks plain linux is easiest
20:01:49amiconnEither I need to copy the source over everytime before compiling, or I'd need to run samba and have the VM running all the time as a service

20:03:28XavierGrthen only hassle was that sometimes the image needed reboot because windows couldn't find it
20:03:42gevaertsYou could suspend the VM, and build a makefile that first starts the VM, then rsyncs source, then builds, and then copies back the result

20:15:57*n1s closes another "bug" report about ogg/vorbis files with id3 tags...
20:16:24markunn1s: do we skip those id3 tags?
20:16:36n1smarkun: nope, we refuse to play the file
20:18:13markunwe could just skip them.. but then people ask us why their tags are missing
20:18:41n1sThis isn't a bug because the files are broken, thing is that some desktop players and even the h100 OF apparently does play them
20:18:51XavierGrhmm now I found some logs, vmware needs half the time than cygwin on my machine
20:19:08XavierGr28 seconds to build an H300 build...
20:19:26 Quit super_ ()
20:19:33gevaertsn1s: maybe a panic() would be better
20:19:40*gevaerts hides slightly
20:20:40n1smarkun: we could indeed, but i think the conclusion is that this would open the door for supporting more exotic tag/stream combos and weird workarounds for commonly broken things, also i guess noone cares enough to code it :)
20:20:48n1sgevaerts: +1!
20:21:03markunn1s: like APE tags for MP3 files?
20:21:10n1sfor example
20:21:11gevaertsAnd vorbiscomment for mp3s

20:21:54gevaertsIt isn't! vorbiscomment is a lot more flexible
20:22:00amiconnXavierGr: wow

20:26:00gevaertsn1s: I'll test right away
20:26:13XavierGrI must install linux and give it a try, 28 seconds with half the cores (on vmware) is incredible
20:27:09*amiconn does a Cygwin test
20:27:34bertrikXavierGr, you did do a "make clean" before, right ? :P
20:27:59XavierGrbertrik: haha of course, I don't think I was that dumb when I did the test :P
20:28:43XavierGrbut it is true that I didn't manage to redo that test because I never used again the vmware image

20:53:15amiconnI wonder where the huge differences between speed differences come from...
20:53:44gevaertsI suspect that you need to enable dircache ;)
20:53:54amiconnFor building the toolchains, Interix is *way* faster than Cygwin (measured speed differences of a factor 2...7 (!))
20:54:07amiconnBut for building rockbox, the difference is small...
20:54:23n1samiconn: maybe it's our buildsystem?
20:54:43gevaertsamiconn: is the console fast? Try redirecting all output to /dev/null
20:55:09*gevaerts doubts if that is the real problem, but it may help a bit
20:55:14amiconnThe console is the same in both cases. And building gcc spits a lot more junk to the console than our build system

23:36:46n1sbluebrother: ok, good, I was responding to a confused rbutil user in the forum
23:36:59Buschelsaratoga: yep, i'm quite busy with real life
23:37:21saratogahave you looked at my MP3 cop work?
23:37:58Buschelsaratoga: of course, i was reading the logs and the fs entry ;-) good work!
23:38:20saratogai'm curious if you've looked into that for MPC?
23:38:35saratogai imagine a similar approach would be possible there
23:38:50Buschelsaratoga: I thought about it. but the gain won't be that much
23:39:00fmlXavierGr: the "proportional" padding is better IMHO that a fixed width (in pixels)
23:40:06fml*than
23:40:11saratogaBuschel: put the whole thing on COP then
23:40:16bluebrothern1s: seems some people fail to find the "change" button in the voice windows ... :(

23:40:28saratogahave the CPU free for GUI/buffering, then you could put it quite low
23:41:24Buschelsaratoga: for optimum gain 50:50 partitioning (in terms of cpu-load) would be needed. maybe a 25:75 is reachable with a very similar approach to your's for mp3
23:42:04Buschelsaratoga: so, leave 25% on CPU and put 75% to COP
23:42:31Buschelsaratoga: nevertheless I need to have and take the time to do so...
23:42:55saratogayes i understand, have had very little time for programming this month as well
23:45:40Buschelsaratoga: were there runtime tests performed with lowered normal clock (e.g. 24MHz)?

23:46:25Buschelsaratoga: how efficient is 2x40MHz compared to 1x80MHz (and COP in sleep)?

23:48:06 Quit zodttd ("Bye!")
23:48:23saratogaBuschel: i haven't had time to do rigourous measurements, but I would expect a savings of perhaps 1.5 to 2ma by lowing the core clock to 24mhz

23:48:57saratogaBuschel: I do have DMM/labview measurements for single vs. dual vs. boosting
23:49:36 Quit fml ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
23:49:43saratogaI estimate that boosting to 80MHz from 30MHz uses 4 times as much power per Op then using 2 cores

23:51:40Buschelsaratoga: I assume 2x40MHz is more effective than 1x80MHz + sleeping COP?
23:52:02saratogaBuschel: tremendously so
23:53:02saratogaalso interesting, though inconclusive due to not running the sandisk bootloader on my player: http://www.duke.edu/~mgg6/rockbox/rb-of.png

23:54:08XavierGrso what do you prefer for a scroll padding? a pixel width setting or a space number setting?
23:54:16XavierGr(FS #9455)
23:55:38bertriksaratoga, so there's still some room for improvement :)
23:55:43XavierGras fml said choosing spaces is proportional to the selected font, while choosing number of pixels is fixed for all fonts

23:56:05bluebrotherXavierGr: well, some players (like winamp) even use something completely different like +++
23:56:11Buschelsaratoga: hmm, the graphs show that there is no big difference in sleeping or active cores? the difference come with the clocking?
23:56:13saratogabertrik: thats pre-COP, and probably not comparable due to lack of the retail bootloader
23:56:25saratogaBuschel: yes the difference is extremely small
23:56:31saratogaeffectively both cores are always running
23:56:39XavierGrbluebrother: that's another request from fml, negative values = "+"
23:56:42saratogawell to within a couple mA
23:56:55bluebrotherso, why not let the user set a padding string himself? That way one can define himself how much space it should be (or if it should be some delimiting character(s) −− I'd rather use something like that)
23:57:14bluebrotherhow about allowing to enter an arbitrary string?
23:57:30XavierGrthat can be done too
23:57:49Buschelsaratoga: man, you should have measured this a few moths ago. that was exactly what i was asking here. answer was: sleeping core does not need a reasonable amount of power :(
23:58:01bluebrothercould be fixed to a maximum length of a couple of characters, but that would fit (almost?) all needs
23:58:11XavierGra fixed string input via the virtual keyboard, stored into settings and then appended to each forward scrolling string?

23:58:38saratogaBuschel: I know but finding a couple hours in the lab is hard to do
23:58:46bluebrotherthe only problem could arise if someone wants to use something like 5 spaces as string. But that could be handled using a replacement character when displaying
