00:44:02Strife89ercferret18: What's the problem.
00:44:15Strife89?
00:44:25ercferret18i have tried everything, but my sansa c200 just won't work
00:44:37ercferret18when i turn it on, only the blue ring lights up
00:44:42Strife89ercferret18: I just dropped in; I need details.
00:44:56ercferret18when i turn on my sansa c200
00:45:00ercferret18nothing happens
00:45:05ercferret18except the blue ring lights up
00:45:15ercferret18i tried the e200tool
00:45:23ercferret18and that got the player into recovery mode
00:45:35ercferret18but i tried
00:45:47ercferret18dragging the firmware into the disk and it still didn't work
00:46:02ercferret18someone suggested i use the eraser and that i could get it from this IRC
00:46:06ercferret18ok, i'm done
00:46:11Strife89Then you've looked at the Wiki?
00:46:26ercferret18wiki?
00:47:18Strife89http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/SansaC200Port
00:47:33Strife89My Internet connection is slow today.........
00:47:43ercferret18yeah, i looked at that and tried everything, it still doesn't work
00:47:49ercferret18thats ok
00:48:39Strife89You may have gotten the wrong firmware version.
00:49:03Strife89Where is that sucker?.........
00:49:34ercferret18i tried dragging the firmware i got from the e200tool site into the 16MB-FORMAT thingie
00:50:08Strife89But you're using a *c*200, correct?
00:50:16ercferret18a c250 actually
00:50:28Strife89Heh, that's my model. :)
00:50:34ercferret18hah
00:50:37Strife89Anyway, look here: http://files.zefie.com/PMP/sansa/c200/v1/firmware/1.01.00/
00:50:59ercferret18ok, which one should i get?
00:51:01Strife89Pick one of the zips and copy *all* of the files to your Sansa while in recovery mode.
00:51:08ercferret18ok
00:51:11ercferret18i'll try
00:51:11Strife89Try them all, one at a time.

00:52:37ercferret18ok, i will when i'm done trying this
00:52:56Strife89And I recommend that you use the Wiki's way to get into recovery mode. It shouldn't matter, but for safety's sake.....

00:54:02ercferret18i can't do it by using the hold switch and record button, only by using the e200tool
00:54:19Strife89Don't try hitting power, just plug it in.
00:54:35Strife89Keep holding record.
00:54:40ercferret18yeah, when i do that, it goes into "manufacturing mode"
00:54:46ercferret18then i use e200tool
00:54:58Strife89Hmmm.
00:55:20Strife89What's your computer's OS?
00:55:33ercferret18i'm on linux (ubuntu) right now

00:56:32ercferret18ok, now i have it in recovery mode (using e200tool) and now im going to try extracting that firmware you just gave me
00:56:52Strife89Be sure to place *all* of the files onto your Sansa.
00:57:34ercferret18yup, i'm just extracting it straight into the 16MB-FORMAT thing
00:57:49Strife89Be sure to unmount it before pulling the plug.
00:58:13ercferret18oops...
00:58:23Strife89I preferred to extract it elsewhere first.
00:58:32Strife89"Oops" what?
00:58:43ercferret18i didn't unmount before pulling it out
00:59:22Strife89That is *definitely* something that has potential to screw up hardware. PLEASE be careful.
00:59:34ercferret18ok, i'll do that next time
00:59:35Strife89Anyway, reboot your Sansa.
00:59:44ercferret18ok, the first one didn't work
01:00
01:00:15Strife89Do you remember the EXACT version of the OF before you had problems?

01:01:04ercferret18no, I don't. i had installed rockbox on it and i had never ran any firmware updates, this happened when i removed rockbox and its bootloader.

01:02:36***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
01:03:14ercferret18no luck with the second one
01:03:24ercferret18and this time i noticed it said "format failure" on the screen
01:03:33Strife89Hmmm.
01:03:42Strife89Never seen that before....
01:05:37ercferret18third didn't work, again with the format failure
01:05:46Strife89Let's try what the log says. Download this: gevaerts/c250erase">http://www.evonet.be/~gevaerts/c250erase
01:06:04ercferret18ok
01:06:08ercferret18I downloaded it
01:06:27Strife89This tool is supposed to wipe your Sansa to a fresh state. First......
01:06:44Strife89Put it in your Home directory.
01:06:53ercferret18k
01:06:55Strife89/home/yourusername/
01:07:01ercferret18ok, got it
01:07:04Strife89Now open a terminal.
01:07:09ercferret18yeah
01:07:11Strife89Type this: gevaerts/c250erase">http://www.evonet.be/~gevaerts/c250erase
01:07:15Strife89No, not that
01:07:20ercferret18lol
01:07:22Strife89chmod +x c250erase
01:07:24Strife89That
01:07:42ercferret18k
01:07:43Strife89Put "sudo" before it if that doesn't work.
01:07:51ercferret18i think it worked
01:07:56Strife89Okay.
01:08:03Strife89sudo ./c250erase
01:08:16Strife89With your Sansa plugged in, of course.
01:08:28ercferret18should it be in manufacturing mode or recovery mode
01:08:36Strife89Manufacturing.
01:08:42ercferret18k
01:09:02Strife89Be aware: This will take a long time.
01:09:05ercferret18ok its working
01:09:08Strife89~45 minutes.
01:09:19ercferret18thats fine, anything to get it working again
01:09:23Strife89You should see some numbers counting down on the Sansa.
01:09:31ercferret18yup, i do
01:09:40Strife89Okay, let it sit there.
01:09:44ercferret18ok
01:09:53ercferret18i've got plenty of time
01:10:12Strife89After around 45 minutes, it'll say that it's ready, and that pressing a key powers it off.
01:10:38ercferret18ok, and then will it boot into the firmware or will i have to put the firmware on it?
01:11:01Strife89But while it's there, it's in "normal" manufacture mode, so using SansaE200Unbrick's instructions should work.
01:11:34Strife89So, don't turn it off when it gets there.
01:11:50ercferret18so what should i do when it finishes?
01:12:42 Quit n1s ()
01:13:07Strife89Put this on it. http://daniel.haxx.se/sansa/c200/firmware.mi4

01:13:47Strife89I *believe.*
01:13:53ercferret18ok, thanks
01:14:17Strife89Go ahead and read the log; that's where I'm getting the instructions from. :)
01:14:25ercferret18ok
01:14:32Strife89"When you're there, it's in "normal" manufacure mode, so the procedure from SansaE200Unbrick should work."
01:14:49Strife89That sentence is iffy to me.
01:15:11ercferret18yeah...
01:15:28ercferret18i will try with just the firmware first
01:16:17Strife89Well, I have dishes to wash. ;)
01:16:23Strife89I'll be back.

03:43:52MarcGuayjunzi: Sounds like a bad idea to me, the e200 has a hidden partition for a reason.
03:49:20junziMarcGuay: hmm, what reason? fdisk -l output looks like a mess
03:54:21advcomp2019junzi, i think the hidden partition is mainly for the OF and bootloader but i am not 100% sure tho.. i have to look at the info again
03:57:21junzihmm, so better leave it alone... can i at least format the first partition, or are there any required files (apart from the .rockbox folder)?
03:58:31advcomp2019yes and the OF.mi4 file in the system folder
03:59:27*ameyer thought the firmware partition was the first partition
04:00
04:00:25ameyernevermind, I got it reversed
04:00:57junziadvcomp2019: no *.mi4 file in the system folder or anywhere else on this sansa...
04:02:07advcomp2019you need that file to boot into the sansa firmware for USB and charging
04:03:35ameyerI thought you only put a mi4 in the root directory to upgrade the firmware and it got copied to the system partition
04:04:59junzino *mi4* on this sansa, and it connects to USB and charges just fine, also with the original firmware...
04:05:04ameyerthe only mi4 I can find is /.rockbox/rockbox.mi4
04:05:09ameyerjunzi: same here
04:05:36 Nick num1_ is now known as num1 (n=brian@unaffiliated/num1)
04:05:56advcomp2019it might be OF.bin
04:06:30junzino *.bin either
04:07:45ameyerI'm 99% sure the OF is on the hidden partition
04:09:22ameyerhttp://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/SansaE200FirmwarePartition
04:10:35advcomp2019yea but you need the /system/OF.mi4 or OF.bin to able to get into the Sansa firmware since Rockbox does not have USB support for the sansas unless you have USB support enable build
04:11:57*ameyer facepalms
04:13:04junzihmm, would there be a way to recreate that hidden firmware partiton in case it gets deleted or corrupted?
04:14:31advcomp2019the e200tool if i remember right
04:17:15junzianyone still using an archos? do i understand correctly that i could put a 500gb hdd in an archos v1 recorder, setting up 4 x 125gb partitions, only 1 partiton would be accessible via usb, the other 3 need to be preloaded before i put the hdd in...? :)
04:18:37ameyerwhat size HD does the archos recorder use
04:18:52ameyerlike, 2.5", 1.8", 1", etc.
04:18:57junziameyer: 2.5" 9mm height
04:19:36ameyerI *think* you might be able to get away with 137 for the USB-accessible partition if you're right
04:20:24cool_walking137GB=128GiB
04:21:18ameyermmm, 500GB of 320 kbps mp3
04:21:35junziyeah, turn your mp3 into a monster... :)
04:22:19junziand the archos has digital out, and i have a dedicated dac ... :)
04:22:23ameyeram I right when I calculate 1157.4 days
04:22:36ameyerheck, the archoses do wav, right?
04:23:06ameyeryay 3 years of mp3s...
04:23:17ameyer(that can't be right)
04:23:39junzino, archoses do mp3 only, nothing else, hardware mp3 decoder...
04:24:25ameyerI swear they figured out a way to get wav to play
04:25:18junzihmm, 320k lame preset insane sounds good enough for me... ;)
04:26:38ameyerok, 144 days

05:05:55Riyonukthat's what I see, ALL THE TIME
05:06:10RiyonukCan you give me a theme YOU know works, just to test?
05:06:51MarcGuayRiyonuk: Any of the included ones.
05:07:15*ameyer points out that the theme Riyonuk is talking about probably wasn't upgraded to work after the last theme-breaking change
05:07:56MarcGuayThere were changes to the WPS syntax that broke a lot of themes. Try the ones from the gallery in the rockbox.org wiki.
05:07:58advcomp2019Riyonuk, those themes on that site might be broken
05:08:05cool_walkingYeah, I can't even see it in the WPS graveyard.
05:08:28*MarcGuay wonders why that site still exists.
05:08:42RiyonukXD
05:08:46RiyonukI want the Zelda one though T_T
05:09:15cool_walkingYou'll have to modify it to work with the new syntax. Read the CustomWPS wiki page.
05:10:32RiyonukSome of those themes...wow, just...wow
05:12:35cool_walkingThe current place to go for themes is the WpsGallery wiki page.

05:14:03RiyonukAlso, where am I supposed to be putting my files? I formatted everything, so all I have is .rockbox. Do I put it as .rockbox/Music, or /Music?
05:15:23cool_walkingit doesn't really matter, but inside .rockbox is not good for a couple of reasons.
05:16:25cool_walking.rockbox is hidden by default, and there's a database.ignore file in there, so the database scan won't pick up any music in there.
05:17:21cool_walkingBut basically you can put it anywhere you want.
05:18:11Riyonukdo I really need the database if I'm organized anyways?
05:18:27cool_walkingYou don't. It's completely optional.

05:19:59cool_walkingThe initialiazation (ideally should only be done once, then "updates" are done subsequently) can completely drain the battery.
05:20:06cool_walkingI don't use the database though.
05:21:09cool_walkingYou should read the manual (linked on the left of every page on rockbox.org). Lots of information.
05:23:20RiyonukUgh, I change themes, and the one I chose retains the icon from the last. Stupid >_<
05:24:36cool_walkingThere are some icon sets on the IconSets wiki page.
05:25:33cool_walkingerr.. did you change the theme (.cfg file) or just the WPS (.wps file)?
05:26:40cool_walkingThe .cfg sets background image, sets font, etc. The .wps is just the While Playing Screen.

10:45:48scorchethe language is not needed...
10:46:30Sethsorry if i offended anyone
10:51:04linuxstbIt's also not very descriptive of your problem. On the h10, Rockbox has no USB transfer mode, so you will need a working original firmware in order to transfer anything to it.

15:17:57olegfinkother than looking through the site? do tell.
15:18:23olegfinkI wonder how sigmatel managed to release SDK without any dev boards
15:18:25linuxstbDo it yourself.
15:19:29olegfinkgiven the stmp3600 is BGA, this going to be a lot of fun
15:20:06linuxstbWhy do you need a devboard? Most Rockbox ports are done without any additional hardware.

15:28:13olegfinkI've just got a Zen V, it sounds much better then mid-priced usb audio solutions.
15:30:28funmancould a very high memory refresh frequency be harmful in another way than slow down operations ?

18:25:57gevaertsptbarn: do you have access to a linux PC?
18:26:05ptbarnyup
18:26:17ptbarnI've been using e200tool on linux
18:26:28ptbarnand even falshing the firmware from there too
18:26:33ptbarnafter the device automounts
18:26:46gevaertsOK. Download gevaerts/c250erase">http://www.evonet.be/~gevaerts/c250erase
18:27:19gevaertsThen run "chmod +x c250erase"
18:27:51ptbarnawesome, will try that when I get home today
18:27:54gevaertsAfter that, put the device in manufacturer mode (same as for e200tool), and run "sudo ./c250erase"
18:28:14ptbarnk
18:28:24linuxstbgevaerts: Any objections to me starting a wiki page with these instructions? You can add to them afterwards...
18:28:27gevaertsThat will run some code on the c250. It will take a while
18:28:48gevaertslinuxstb: I need to integrate this thing in svn really soon I guess
18:29:01gevaertsBut go ahead
18:29:14ptbarndo I need to run e200tool after running the erase program?
18:29:24ptbarnand restore the bootloader?
18:29:40gevaertsptbarn: there will be output on the c250 screen while it's running, but after a while (45 minutes or more) it will tell you it's done
18:30:04gevaertsAfter that, you can do an e200tool recovery
18:30:37ptbarnexcellent
18:30:39gevaertsOnce you get it running again, I recommend reformatting it from inside the sandisk firmware
18:30:51ptbarnI thought it might be a hardware problem
18:31:42gevaertsProbably not. The Sandisk firmware is really bad at handling some sorts of data corruption, like a bad FAT superblock or a bad partition table

18:59:56MarcGuayThe c200 port page has a troubleshooting section which is essentially a watered-down e200unbrick.
19:00
19:01:04linuxstbIn terms of keeping it simple for users, separate pages (SansaE200Unbrick and SansaC200Unbrick) might be better. The page is already complicated enough, without lots of "if you have c200 do this, if you have e200 do this" sections.

19:08:29linuxstbMarcGuay: Best to ask gevaerts about its limitations (if any)
19:08:34MarcGuayMight be nice to rename it to avoid confusion. (Not that c200 doesn't already confuse people, but anyway...)

19:20:38tonyspeaksHI there. I'm a blind user, and I'm having trouble creating .talk files with the rock box utilities. I've already been to the forums for a slution to this problem, and there isn't enough information there about it for me to get a handle on it.
19:20:58domonokytonyspeaks: whats the problem ?
19:21:08tonyspeaksIt's the encoding errror. It tries to encode something in a temp file and says it can't.
19:21:19 Quit miepchen^schlaf ()
19:21:31tonyspeaksIt worked fine when I used thhe utility to encode directly onto my micro sd card, but not when I used the player.
19:21:51domonokywhich OS is this ?
19:21:57tonyspeaksWindows Vista.

19:23:05domonokyhm, i have never tested the util on vista.. this is rbutil1.0.7b ?
19:23:11tonyspeaksyes.
19:24:04tonyspeaksI was trying to use a voice other than Anna because I dont' like that voice, and it gave me that encoding error. Like I said, I was able to use the utility to encode talk files onto a micro SD card, and it worked great.
19:24:19*domonoky thinks that it probably has problems generating a voicefile for some files. and then encoding fails, because the wav file doesnt exist..
19:24:24tonyspeaksbut not at all whhen I used the player. It's a Sansa e200.
19:24:55tonyspeakstrouble generating a wave file?
19:25:21tonyspeaksIt says taht it can't encode the talk file, but it didn't say why. I suppose that makes sense.
19:25:22domonokyyes. it uses a tts engine to create a wav file from the filenames..
19:25:41domonokyand then it encodes those wav files to talkclips..
19:26:08tonyspeaksAt first I thought it might be something wrong with the way it handles the TTS engine, but it worked when I tried to use the micro sd card.
19:26:17tonyspeaksweird.
19:26:36domonokytry pointing it to only subfolder on your sansa with only a few files...
19:26:53domonokyto see if this works...
19:27:04tonyspeaksOkay. I'll let you know
19:27:08tonyspeaksThanks .
19:27:14domonokybut i suspect a problematic filename on your device.
19:28:02domonokyIf you find the offending file, please make it somehow available (filename is enough) so i can improve the talkfile generation :-)
19:28:05amiconnHow "great". Resume bugs are back :(
19:28:46tonyspeakshm. I try to look point it to the directory contining my music on the player, but it doesn't see it. It sees the other directories though, like photo and video, and the .rockbox directory.
19:29:14domonokyi think the music directory is hidden on sansa...
19:29:37domonokyyou can also just enter the path into the box 8with out selecting it via browse)
19:29:47tonyspeaksokay. Leme see if I can unhide it with ... okay I'll try that.
19:31:05domonokyanother unrelated question: how is accessibility of our util on vista ? does it work good with screenreader ?
19:31:09tonyspeaksIt's running now. It usually geneartes the error after a while, so I'll wait and see.
19:32:16tonyspeaksnot too wonderful, but I don't think you can help that. Unless you can implememtn implement native Windows controls, which I heard is out of the question, or use MSAA somehow, I don't thinkk it can be made very accessible. I'm pretty good with my reader though, so I can work with it okay

19:32:34amiconntonyspeaks: If rbutil doesn't work when generating .talk clips, you could also try VoiceBox
19:33:21tonyspeaksMy biggest problem with it is tha that the error messages / dialogs letting me know when a process is finished won't read at all except for the okay button.
19:33:49tonyspeaksMy problem with the voice box is that it won't let me use any other voice than microsoft Anna. It works great other than that.
19:33:52domonokytonyspeaks: if your are able to use it, its good :-) There are ways to improve accessibility, but for this we need to now exactly what doesnt work..
19:34:06amiconn(although VoiceBox wasn't tested on Vista so far either)
19:34:14tonyspeaksthe names of the tab controls don't read. It only says "tab."
19:34:45tonyspeaksMaybe I should try running all these things on an XP machine.
19:35:01domonokyfor example i have improved the progressdialog, so in svn you should be able to find more than "ok" :-)
19:35:49domonokythe Tab problem is known, its a Qt bug wich will be hopefully fixed someday..
19:36:00tonyspeaksoh? I don't know SVN very well at all. Will that help get a later build than what is on the releases page?
19:36:27 Quit ptbarn2 ("CGI:IRC")
19:36:36domonokyits a bit difficult to build rbutils your self, so better wait for the next release :-)
19:37:34tonyspeaksAnother accessibility issue is in the configure tts dialog. It doesn't read the prompts, so I can't tell if I'm configuring the volume or some other thing that has a numberic value. I can choose the voice and language with no problem whtough.
19:37:43tonyspeaksnumeric*
19:38:10tonyspeaksI'll wait for the next relase then. SVN is really unfamiliar to me.
19:38:22domonokyit would be very nice if could make a flyspray report for this issues, or else i will forget them :-)

19:41:19domonokyi think there is a problematic file on your player (not on the card) which makes the generating fail.. but i could be wrong :-)
19:42:00tonyspeaksI think you're probably right. It says it can't encode the talk file, but it seems to try to encode it into a temp directory.
19:42:09tonyspeakson my local hard drive.
19:43:46domonokyyes, it generates wav file in a temp directory on your harddrive, and then when it encodes them, it puts them to the player
19:44:25tonyspeaksdoes it do all the encoding first then send the talk files to the player?
19:44:30amiconnBah, .talk clips are broken too :((
19:44:36domonokyperhaps i should also improve the error message, so you know which file fails :-)
19:45:17domonokyit first creates all wav files, and then encodes directly to the player
19:45:36tonyspeaksI think it said the name of the file, but I can't remember. My son had to read me the error message because I can only see the graphics and the okay button with my screen reader.
19:46:16domonokyoh, no. it does all locally, and copies later.
19:46:27tonyspeaksI remember it said it couldn't encode c:\blah blah\temp\something.talk. That sounded like it was trying to encode to the temp directory.
19:46:53tonyspeaksoh okay. Then it may be some problem with one of the wave files.

20:12:08amiconnlinuxstb: I found the problem
20:12:26ptbarnahh, ok. Hmm, hope it's not a hardware issue, the "Zeroing status" would get to different points (when it did work) and then show the panic message. If it was a memory problem, I assume it would have been happening at the same kB "Zeroing status"
20:12:28domonokytonyspeaks: good. the problematic filename is usefull

20:13:28gevaertsptbarn: once it gets started, it should run without problems. It's just the first upload that can be tricky
20:13:56amiconnget_metadata() tries to guess the file format from the extension before calling the appropriate get_*_metadata() function
20:14:23amiconnBut get_metadata() doesn't know that .talk is mp3...
20:14:46amiconn...so it fails, and .talk clips don't work
20:15:17linuxstbSo Rockbox checks .talk clips for id3 tags?
20:15:34domonokyshoudnt we then just make .talk known to get_metadata() ? (as mp3 for hwcodec, speex for swcodec)
20:15:41amiconnYes, in order to skip them. They might cause funny noise when fed to the MAS
20:15:50amiconndomonoky: No, why?
20:16:03amiconnSwcodec doesn't call mp3info() for .talk clips

20:16:23ptbarnfor about a minute and a half

20:17:39ptbarnmy c250 is finicky
20:17:46MarcGuayIit appears that the c140s all use the NAND interface and the c150s use the SD-style, which is nice in that it provides an easy way to distinguish them. Working OF version is another way. Ramble.
20:18:33gevaertsptbarn: c240erase probably won't help then

21:23:52gevaertsTrue, but if you get far enough to need this, you need e200tool anyway
21:24:18linuxstbOr we replace e200tool with a ARM application that provides UMS
21:24:25linuxstb(once UMS is stable...)
21:25:44gevaertsThat is indeed the ultimate solution. Replace e200rpatcher with sansaUsbTool, and you have the ultimate sansa v1 installation/recovery helper
21:26:21*linuxstb adds that to Mr Someone's todo list

21:27:59linuxstbMaybe they just returned them to Sandisk. But now they're out of warranty.

22:21:51webguest54patched 1.29eu with fwpatcher but the bootloader isn't loading, any ideas?
22:22:08webguest54just boots to the standard iriver fw
22:22:26webguest54(followed instr in the manual)
22:22:44linuxstbwebguest54: Try again - I think it sometimes needs a few attempts (unless I'm confusing the h320 with something else)
22:23:06webguest54i've tried about 5 times with various fw flavors, 1.25 through 1.29, korean, english
22:23:07BeChrisBadger : can you explain why ? (it looks very good to me and makes things shorter and easier than classical Makefiles)
22:23:12linuxstbfml: The manpage isn't clear to me...
22:23:13gevaertswebguest54: you did flash the bootloader afterwards, right?
22:23:15webguest54did a chkdsk and found no probs with the drive
22:23:30webguest54using the firmware upgrade option from the standard iriver fw, yes
22:23:46gevaertsok, just checking the obvious :)
22:23:47BagderBeChris: because it'll require a new tool, because it's a new tool to learn, because Makefiles are traditional and known to many people already, because I've not seen any proven benefits
22:23:47MarcGuaywebguest54: Try using Rockbox Utilty?
22:23:58webguest54I did
22:23:59webguest54no joy
22:24:11GodEater_Bagder: and because you're a grumpy old man? :)

22:24:17Bagderoh yes, that too
22:24:26GodEater_hehehe
22:24:27webguest54resulting hex file after patching ~ 4mb
22:24:29linuxstbfml: In which case, snprintf seems sensible
22:24:32webguest54before, about 2.7mb
22:25:08webguest54it is updaing the fw too i think, because the loaded firmware version changes on the iriver splash screen
22:25:13BeChrisBadger : Have you used it already ? According to what I already made to replace rockbox Makefiles, it sounds that it requiere less maintenance

22:26:02Bagderamiconn: I know that, but is cmake the fix we need for them?
22:26:15webguest54I am, there is only one file i'm dealing with −− 2.7mb pre patch, 4mb after patch, copy to iriver, then flash using fw upgrade option
22:26:16fmllinuxstb: app layer may crash but the firmware layer should be rock solid.
22:26:25Bagderto me, our problem is rather that nobody is working on the build problems
22:26:27BeChrisBadger : I agree it will add a dependency towards a new tool but it makes life easier compared to make
22:26:39amiconnI didn't say so... but someone who knows Makefiles well enough should really fix them

22:30:00fmlgevaerts, amiconn: I was joking of course. But the rock solidness should be build from firmware to app if can't have it everywhere at once

22:37:08*mcuelenaere thinks Twiki is thinking PayPal is a wiki page
22:37:14fmlgevaerts: I think that we shouldn't make firmware code dependent on the app layer code. If we had standard string sizes for all the different cases then we could probably do without n-functions in the firmware layer. But since we don't have them I'd use n-funcs.

22:51:15BagderI added a command line to the release checklist wiki, but I can do it sure

22:51:30linuxstbNico_P: But IIUC, chained ogg files are just created with "cat file1.ogg file2.ogg file3.ogg > chained.ogg"
22:52:05linuxstbWhich is what makes them Rockbox unfriendly - we would need to scan the entire file to find out how many ogg files there are.
22:52:30amiconnr18843 was the last commit for 3.0.1 (the flashing chapter in the manual)
22:53:24Bagderamiconn: but nothing else has been committed to the 3.0 branch since, has it?
22:53:28Nico_Plinuxstb: how hard would it be to prevent the crash?
22:54:06amiconnBagder: no
22:54:57linuxstbNico_P: I seem to remember writing code to detect chained ogg files... Let me check the source.
22:55:06amiconnlinuxstb: Imo rockbox should just play the first part of chained ogg files, then stop
22:55:26olegfinkMarcGuay: page, probably, but not the problems
22:55:30olegfinkwhat are they?
22:55:37amiconn(and it should limit buffering to the first part)
22:56:31linuxstbamiconn: That's not easy either. IIRC, ogg files are split into pages, and each page contains a timestamp./duration for that page. To find the duration of a track, you need to find the first and last pages, and subtract the timestamps.
22:56:40RiyonukIs there a way to test themes on my computer before transferring to the iPod?
22:57:19amiconnlinuxstb: Erm... I thought ogg was a sane format... obviously it isn't
22:57:27linuxstbThere is code in the Ogg metadata parser that checks the serial numbers of the first and last pages in the file - if they don't match, it should mean a chained ogg file, and Rockbox should reject it completely.
22:57:34linuxstbamiconn: No it's not...
22:57:36amiconnA sane format would allow finding its playing time without seeking to the end

22:57:42fml jdGordon (for the log): couldn't we throw away the last parameter (len) in the macro FILENAME_SETTING (in settings_list.c) and use sizeof() instead (and subtract the prefix/suffix length if they are defined)? This way we'd avoid repeating the values in settings.h and settings_list.c
22:57:44MarcGuayolegfink: No compiler, I believe. Read the motorola link.
22:57:52amiconnEven mp3 does that (cbr or vbr with xing header)
22:58:27linuxstbamiconn: Yes, it surprised me too.
22:58:51linuxstb(unless I'm completely misremembering - it was a long time ago when I wrote that code, and haven't touched it since)

23:10:10amiconnBagder: Do symlinks get synced to the other download servers?
23:10:17Bagdersure
23:10:27olegfinkMarcGuay: the motorola link suggests a few compilers, and seem that guy used some other one
23:10:33amiconnDo they stay symlinks?
23:10:43*amiconn has no idea how the files are synced
23:11:12Bagderhm, it depends on what rsync options they use
23:11:23 Quit Riyonuk ()
23:11:23Bagderit seems they might get turned into plain files by default...
23:11:55amiconnI would think that if the other servers don't use the exact same directory structure, symlinks would break when synced
23:12:11Bagderthey will work since they do use the exact same structure
23:12:24BagderI only symlink relative within our own tree
23:12:29amiconnah
23:12:51Bagder=> ../3.0/... style
23:13:13Bagderso it doesn't really matter if they end up links or real files
23:13:31*amiconn had seen relative symlinks break in the past... but that was quite long ago
23:13:33Bagderat least not if the web servers allow symlinks
23:13:57BagderI guess I'll get this bouncing back at me in the end anyway! ;-)

23:20:46linuxstbBagder: Isn't that a category on Sourceforge?
23:21:33Bagdersf says "Programming Language : C, C++"
23:22:07BagderI checked it, and I'd call it C++
23:22:30linuxstbMaybe it uses some C libs - e.g. zlib?
23:22:53Bagderyes, it uses a wide range of libs

23:53:21LambdaCalculus37I haven't tried injecting any real code into it.
23:53:28mcuelenaerewhat file? code?
23:53:46LambdaCalculus37Just text.

23:54:32mcuelenaerethat's the DFU code used on iPhones/iPod Touch'es
23:54:41*LambdaCalculus37 bookmarks it for later reference
23:55:04mcuelenaereand they say they use an 'exploit' that Apple seemed to haven't seen
