00:07:59funmanwhat if you plug the usb cable while the Apple OS is running?
00:08:02bluebrotherthen reset the Ipod, put it into emergency disk mode and connect it again.

00:09:38bluebrotherdid you actually manage to reset the Ipod?
00:09:53bluebrotherthere is only one way to hard reset the Ipod ...
00:10:00linuxstbzues: Turn the hold switch on immediately after resetting.
00:10:06zuesum how do i boot back into the orignal software
00:10:08bluebrotherand that is noticed / linked in the FAQ ...
00:10:13*bluebrother points to the manual

00:12:22zueshow long does this take to do lolz its just got a apple logo there
00:12:58zuesdo i leave the switch on?
00:13:40linuxstbIt doesn't matter. But it sounds like your ipod's Apple firmware has a problem. It should start in about 20 seconds.
00:13:52 Quit ender` (" Man created gods. The opposite remains to be proved. -- Serge Gainsbourg")

00:18:07*bluebrother wonders what the "setup screen" is
00:18:28gevaertsIf it doesn't connect properly while in the Apple firmware, you either have a bad cable, a bad USB port on the PC side, or a broken ipod

00:46:11amiconnlinuxstb: I wanted to ask whether there is a reason for decoder.c:decode_chunk() and entropy.c:entropy_decode() to have return values in their current implementation
00:47:04amiconnentropy_decode() currently always returns 0, and decode_chunk() returns whatever the last call to entropy_decode() returned (i.e. also 0), and in some cases directly returns 0
00:49:04 Join aarcane [0] (n=aarcane@c-67-187-242-146.hsd1.ca.comcast.net)
00:49:40amiconnI think that entropy_decode() doesn't need a return value.
00:53:11amiconndecode_chunk() doesn't need one either in the single core version. For dual core, I am thinking about using the return value to signal whether post-processing (filtering, predicting, decorrelation) is necessary. decode_chunk would only do entropy decoding, and there are cases where no post processing is necessary (those two places: /* We are pure silence, so we're done. */)

01:11:06saratogafunman: yes I did, its been discussed a few times
01:11:25saratogain general I am not a fan of trying to convert it to fixed point
01:11:43saratogahowever, when they get SBR support, I think we should probably take that and convert it to fixed if at all possible
01:12:08saratogabut continue to use faad elsewhere, since we have already removed the slowest parts of the LC codec
01:12:28saratogaand replaced them with Vorbis or WMA code

01:15:35saratogathough HE is still probably 2-3 times slower then it shoudl be
01:15:51funmanDoesn't FAAD support SBR ?

01:18:13LambdaCalculus37By the way, your patch wasn't built against SVN and crapped out with patch -p0 < clip-plugins.diff
01:18:16saratogafunman: yes FAAD supports HE
01:18:25funmansaratoga: I read you have been 'devirginized' of patching your Fuze ? :)
01:18:28saratogaand so do we, though its too slow to be useable on most targets due to terrible implementation

11:48:42JdGordonwell, for voices it would be nice to just do make voice in any build dir without neding to reconfigure... If I'm in a e200-sim but I havnt made a voice for it yet its annoying to create a new dir to do the build
11:48:43rasherB4gder: the current method, that is

11:49:41B4gderchanging the ways will of course kill a lot of automatic scripts
11:49:58JdGordonwe dont have to break it in configure to do it...
11:50:06B4gdertrue
11:50:07kugelis tools built with standard gcc or with the target *-elf-gcc?
11:50:16rasherI don't think we should have configuration code in two places
11:50:26kugelI mean when you did configure and haven't built tools before manually
11:50:28rasherThat's bound to break sooner rather than later
11:50:28JdGordonI only suggest it because no code is compiled for the voice so there is no need for a seperate build dir like bootloader needs

12:02:17kugeldoes anyone have a gigabeat f/x here?
12:02:32kugelI wonder if the change from char to int has an impact
12:03:38kugelit should, given that backlight_brightness is only the array element of log_brightness[]

12:07:58B4gder"n1s / kugel: the proper tools fix would of course be to actually check the fwrite() return codes to detect failures properly"
12:08:10pondlifeMight it give a slightly smaller binary if log_brightness was [13] and the -1s were removed though? Will check...
12:08:36kugelpondlife: no
12:08:43kugelpondlife: you don't need to check
12:08:47pondlifeOK
12:08:56pondlifeI've committed a (void) fix
12:08:56kugelMIN_BRIGHTNESS_SETTING is always >= 0
12:09:17pondlife> 0, you mean
12:09:28kugelwhat could be done is using a dummy for [0] and the first usable value would be [1]
12:09:46pondlifeThat's what I meant
12:09:47kugelpondlife: No, >= 1 :P
12:09:48n1shmm, make veryclean only removes some tools, the ones actually used when building, is this correct or should it remove them all?
12:10:14kugelpondlife: oh sorry, I got it wrong then
12:11:37n1spondlife: c++ style comment! :P
12:11:49pondlifeOops
12:11:56kugelhmm, [0] is 0, I wonder if that makes even sense since 0 is backlight off
12:12:02pondlifeThat's my day job
12:12:35kugel(and backlight_set_brightness should be able to turn it off)
12:12:46kugelshould *not*
12:13:12n1sMIN_BRIGHTNESS_SETTING should be higher than "off"
12:13:32pondlifeAdding a dummy log_brightness[0] saves 8 bytes, apparently
12:14:22kugelso if someone sets the lowest brightness level on a gigabeat f/x, it should effectively turn off the backlight. Should be checked
12:15:35n1skugel: the lowes settable brightness should not be "off" it should still be visible
12:15:49kugeln1s: yes, that's what I mean
12:16:18kugelbut apparently that's not the case on f/x
12:18:23 Quit AndyI ()
12:18:37n1sthen that should be fixed :)
12:19:19kugelgoing by the code it's seems to off and should be fixed. But I haven't a f/x to actually check if it's really the case
12:20:09kugelpondlife: you possibly don't even need to add the dummy, [0] shouldn't be used by brightness changing (IIUC)
12:20:46pondlifeSo the max value is 11?
12:21:57pondlifei.e. removal of the -1 from the two accesses alone doesn't sound correct to me.

12:37:36amiconnThe MMC access is slow, due to how it's hooked to the cpu. Loading the whole voice file at once would take ~5 seconds, so the individual clips are loaded on demand (which is in turn impossible on a hdd target)

12:45:34kugelpixelma: I remember you said (partly) features.txt decides what goes into the manual. I added some targets to the backlight_fade feature, but they have in fact different options in the setting than the existing backlight_fade targets
12:45:37pixelmakugel: the manuals for download are only built once a day (like the daily builds, at around 6AM our time, IIRC)
12:46:11JdGordonamiconn: why doesnt it make sense? imo it makes more sense than needing to make a new dir for it
12:46:52kugelI assume the manual will describe wrongly the settings possible for pwm fading targets ?
12:47:37 Quit Nibbler (Read error: 113 (No route to host))
12:47:41amiconnYou need to specify the engine, language, and other parameters. It's also not uncommon to have more than one voice configuration per target

12:48:25JdGordonso if your not using more than 1 engine its not a problem, and its really handy for quick voice builds
12:48:58*linuxstb wonders why voice is amongst the "advanced" options
12:49:54pixelmakugel: if the backlight_fading feature is already used as an option, then it will probably be used in the entire section about it (if there's no other destinction). It could even be that some manuals are broken when something is missing, should be tried...

12:54:01n1slinuxstb: because of special casing for sims in a lot of places (often unnecessarily) some sims need different voice files than the targets so you have to make a sim-voice, which is only possible in the advanced menu
12:54:24linuxstbJdGordon: You should be able to create a "voice" subdirectory in each of your build directories, and do it there.
12:54:43linuxstbn1s: Hmm, fixing that should go onto Mr Someone's todo list...

13:06:44pondlife1Might be easier than fixing the manuals ;)
13:07:48kugelit could be done. But my tests show that there's only a very small interval to chose from. On my e200 it gets un-smooth if the interval is only slightly raised

13:09:12kugelit doesn't really make sense to offer a adjustable intervall between the steps.
13:09:14pondlife1Maybe limit the numbers, but still offer it in that form?
13:10:00kugelthe current intervall for e200 is 25 ticks. at 20 ticks it's already looking bad
13:10:23pixelmakugel: I can think of two ways to fix it - how many targets now have backlight fading and how many of them PWM (or the brightness control one, depending which is the smaller group)
13:10:25pixelma?
13:10:36kugelthere's very little values to chose from, and they all will be about the same in terms of how long the fading took overall
13:10:55funmanhow can the simulator be properly turned off ? keeping the power button pressed to do that depends on HAVE_SW_POWEROFF and it seems undefined in the sim build

13:12:20kugelthere's no proper way
13:13:01kugeldepends on what you mean by "clean", the sim saves settings instantly, so it doesn't need a shutdown procedure

13:23:41n1syou will need to define those options somewhere for that to work, HAVE_BACKLIGHT is a special case but features from features.txt is automatically parsed into latex options so we should use them when we can
13:24:21n1sin fact that special case could be dropped with a small change to features.txt
13:24:59pixelman1s: then there are 3 ways (the other 2 I thought of were more "by hand" though) - either directly opting the time settings sentence for the targets which have it, or invent a new option in the platform files, independently of features.tex
13:25:35pixelman1s: don't drop the HAVE_BACKLIGHT thing, it was left there on purpose
13:25:53pixelmaand no "backlight" feature in the lang files
13:26:00n1spixelma: i know, but there might be a nicer way
13:26:24n1siirc it's for the ondio backlight mod?
13:27:26n1sbut i will not touch it so don't worry, anyway i think two 'features' is the easiest way
13:28:13pixelmayes, so one can use downloadable voice files
13:29:18n1shmm, no my ide wouldn't work without special casing in other parts of the manual... unless ther's a way to #undef options in a platform file?
13:29:43pixelmadifference to the RTC mod is that. in case of the backlight it is really only one target that's affected by it (and can have backlight) and there is more than one target that has no RTC and only one can be modded
13:30:47pixelman1s: don't know if that is possible but sure would be a nice and easy solution
13:31:06pixelmaby the sounds of it
13:31:39kugeln1s: so lets make it like this: rename backligh_fade to backlight_fade_sw and _pwm, append a * in every lang file, and opt them seperate in the manual
13:32:03n1sor even easier, have the lang strings depend on a backlight feature or ondio* (with a comment to avoid "cleanups)
13:32:30n1skugel: ye, that's what i had in mind
13:35:30pixelman1s: that could work too, sounds even easier

14:32:15n1samiconn: if you see the linked FS task i suggested we should start bumping the version when needed but LinusN objected and said it was a _format_ version so i don't know if we should add a second "cliporder" version? (the same applies to lng files but the problem isn't very big with those)
14:32:44funmanI have some problems with plugins and greylib still
14:33:40JdGordonn1s: how is the problem not as big with lng files? the same thing will happen if the order of english.lang changes... i.e mis-translated strings
14:34:34n1sJdGordon: but installign a build without lng files is much more uncommon than using an outdated voicefile
14:35:04n1sbut yeah, the same solution should be used for both for completness/correctness

21:49:20funmanzackyramone: if it isn't listed on the website, No.
21:49:44amiconnfunman: No, but it would probably make sense to switch to some sane (i.e. low) default when called with 0
21:50:09zackyramonefunman: the website said something about mozaic being compatible with zen vision m or something like that...what about that/
21:50:37amiconnOn most targets, adjusting the CPU clock requires adjusting some other delays; one or two divisions wouldn't be enough
21:50:50amiconns/most/a number of/
21:51:35funmanamiconn: sure, it's already committed in my tree to the minimal frequency, just waiting to be committed to svn :)
21:52:15***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
21:52:21funmanamiconn: I choose to keep a common PLL setting, AS3525 leaves 4 bits for a divider of this PLL
21:53:25funmanzackyramone: if the mozaic is compatible with the vision m, the vision m port is still in development, and so, not ready yet to be used. Just check the webpage regularly; it will be listed here as soon as it's ready to use

21:54:52pixelmameh, building the manual now takes longer because it looks like it needs to make the complete dependency file to parse the features late :\
21:55:00funmanin fact there is 4 bits for an integer divider (1->16) and 2 for a fractional divider (1, 5/8, 6/8, 7/8)

21:56:16amiconnfunman: Both the coldfire and the PP chips use plls as well to set up the cpu clock. But there's more to it: DRAM speed, LCD waitstates/ delays, timer prescaler adjustment (on coldfire) ...
21:57:36funmanamiconn: on the as3525 the peripherals use a different clock, which can be not linked to the PLL (and isn't currently)

22:02:01kugelI haven't tried putting it between the both afsel sets
22:02:24funmanamiconn: in fact I was thinking about this, and was hoping to have delays in various drivers not be dependant of the current cpu freq
22:03:20funmanand timer frequency as well, but luckily this one doesn't depend on the peripheral clock since it uses directly the 24MHz crystal (which is used as a source for PLLs and various clocks)

22:50:28Zagoramiconn: ah, it doesn't. that's a bug. I missed that it was a manual build.
22:50:59pixelma...
22:51:43pixelmait needs the features.txt - not sure how much that matters
23:00
23:06:14*amiconn is annoyed by the "speed" of 'make voice'
23:09:21*n1s finds it funny that 'make help' needs the dependencies built too :)
23:10:03kugelZagor: another question: Why doesn't make build the manual when I configure a "manual build"?
23:10:18n1salso i don't know if this is worth bothering with but if i ^C while building dependencies and tries make again it thinks they are good and of course fails
23:10:22kugelI need make manual. I'd think with make I get the target which I configured for
23:10:27amiconn4:27 until make.dep even starts to appear (0 bytes). Another 5:30 until make.dep is complete.
23:10:41n1skugel: that is older and intended for simplicity
23:10:43amiconnHmpf, and then it fails!
23:11:06pixelmakugel: that's been there before since the automatic parsing of features.txt into a features.tex with usable options was introduced
23:11:26kugeln1s: i find it misleading. Do I even need to configure for manual or is make manual working for every build type?
23:11:52n1skugel, in fact 'make manual' works perfectly in a regular build dir :)
23:12:05n1smaybe we should drop that configure target...
23:12:13kugelprobably
23:12:29pixelman1s: by the way - separating the keymaps works
23:12:35Zagoramiconn: the slowness is entirely your own choice.
23:12:42amiconnNo, it's not
23:12:54n1spixelma: ah, nice :)
23:12:54Zagoryes it is
23:12:56amiconnHow else would I make voice files using SAPI voices?
23:13:23amiconnAnd why does 'make voice' need the dependencies?
23:13:23amiconnAnd btw, it's broken
23:13:40kugeldoes voice need the regular build environment?

23:13:48funmananyone who messes with build systems is doomed

23:15:09Zagorfunman: nah, you just need tough skin on your nose :)
23:15:58kugelthe build system is just "sophisticated" :p
23:16:08pixelmakugel: you can build voices in Linux too, just needs a TTS engine. The downloadable voice files are built under Linux with "festival" IIRC
23:17:07pixelmathe SAPI voices I know of though are nicer/cleaner than the downloadable ones and some espeak ones I tried
23:17:12Zagoractually make is very simple. all it does is compare the date on two files, and run a command if file b is more recent than file a. I don't really understand why "everybody" thinks make is black magic.
23:17:38kugelpixelma: I mean of cygwin/interix/vm is need at all? Do you need the target specific compilers for voice builds?
23:18:13Unhelpfullatest scaler is done. i could still use some testing from people who own hardware for any of the greyscale/mono targets, and it wouldn't hurt to have binsizes for coldfire targets, for which i lack a toolchain.
23:18:27funmanZagor: if you build thousands of files, it is black magic
23:18:27amiconnZagor: I think it is because that almost nobody (including me) really understands in what way all the rules depend on each other
23:18:50Unhelpfulat this point, aside from figuring out some gotchas related to mono targets, where i kind of doubt a scaler is going to do much good, i think it's about "done"...

23:19:07funmanthat's where autotools, cmake, and others are here; to lower the complexity of writing rules

23:19:53Zagorfunman: no, those tools are there to aid multiplatform builds
23:20:05Unhelpfulamiconn: i'm inclined to agree. this is designed to be general-purpose, but i can special-case mono-only targets to not use any scaler.
23:20:21funmanZagor: not automake.
23:20:36amiconnI see the scaler as an option that's ifdefed out for mono displays
23:20:50funmanmultiplatform builds are only a part of these solutions.

23:21:39gevaertsSo I reverted the file

23:25:40funmanI guess most of the checks autoconf does are in the C library and 3rd party libraries (useless to rockbox), but perhaps some of the logic could be useful?

23:26:41funmanZagor: that is autoconf; what about automake ? (Makefile generation from 'simpler' Makefiles)
23:26:57Bagdern1s: I'll check...
23:27:20Zagorfunman: I don't see the point.
23:27:24Bagderfunman: that's not without debate
23:27:25linuxstbn1s: What if someone doesn't have a target gcc? I guess they could build a manual in a sim build directory?
23:27:26Unhelpfulamiconn: branches are cheap. i'll put together a version that directly outputs on the mono-only targets. there's already a direct-output fallback for color if scaling is not requested, because of the amount of manipulation in the scalers.
23:27:34gevaertsfunman: have you looked at the various *.make files? They aren't that complex
23:27:36funmanZagor: as the files are simpler, less maintenance
23:27:47Bagderfunman: that's not true
23:27:49funmanBagder: I'm all for debates!
23:27:59Zagorare they? where does all my information go?
23:28:00n1slinuxstb: yes sim dir works fine (and you need a native gcc to build the manual anyway)
23:28:06Bagdersimpler files are easy to edit, sure
23:28:13Bagderthen they generate huge complex files
23:28:23Bagderand when they malfunction, you're in it
23:28:35funmangevaerts: I had a look already, but I'm still a bit lost to know which .make file I have to look for a particular rule
23:28:38Unhelpfulseirously, fixing auto* output can be nasty.
23:28:44Bagderindeed
23:28:58*linuxstb agrees - Make is simple enough to not need a layer on top of it
23:29:07funmanBagder: I know where to look in (very) complex generated Makefiles so I may be biased
23:29:18amiconngevaerts: The problem with following Makefiles (for me at least) is that the order in which stuff appears in the file(s) is totally unrelated to the order in which things are actually done
23:29:21pixelman1s: what do I need to do to get the file ID info in the new tex files - set the svn props and put a % $Id at the top?
23:29:21funmanZagor: I guess it's compressed?
23:29:44Bagderit really isn't
23:29:49Zagorthe current makefiles are some of the most simple you can imagine. the average is about 25 lines _with_ rockbox header. only root.make and codecs.make are long.
23:30:11amiconnpixelma: % $Id$
23:30:17Bagderthe auto* tools are good, but for more complex scenarios than rockbox imho
23:30:21amiconn(the trailing $ is important)
23:30:29pixelmaah, thanks
23:30:42Bagdern1s: yes it will break, but will be easy to fix

23:54:07saratogathe codec buffer could be made smaller, I don't think anything even needs 1 MB, except for seeking in very long AAC files
23:54:19gevaertsThat's weird...

23:54:32linuxstbsaratoga: And some vorbis files IIUC
23:54:41amiconnThere are very few exceptions, but we can use the same technique as we do on archos to make them run (requires stopping music)
23:54:48funmananyway, I believe test_codec needs a pcm driver first; and I prefer working on a correct one than on a dummy one
23:54:49gevaertsReliom: Maybe try checking the filesystem for errors. That's been known to fix weird problems
23:54:49saratogado we actually know how much RAM vorbis needs?
23:55:03 Quit bluebrother ("leaving")
23:55:04saratogaas I recall floor0 is thought to require more, but i think we don't even decode that correctly
23:55:06n1ssaratoga: no
23:55:14Reliomk
23:55:15gevaertsfunman: are you sure? It doesn't actually play anthing
23:55:19Unhelpfulamiconn: modified per your suggestion, and uploaded. mono-display targets don't use the scaler at all, mono remotes on greyscale targets still use the scaler and share loop code with it - i can branch later and change that to see if it's a binsize savings or not.
23:55:35pixelmaReliom: if you plug it in does your Ipod stay in Rockkbox or does it reboot to the OF?
23:55:43n1ssaratoga: as in no, we don't know how much ram it needs and yes we do decode floor0 files correctly
23:56:04Reliomit goes to the "Do Not Disconnect" screen
23:56:08Reliomfor rockbox
23:56:44Reliomif i eject it it says safe to disconnect and still stay lit
23:56:45n1ssaratoga: there was an old bug report with a floor0 file that crashed before the buffer merging (needed to allocate more than half a meg) that now plays fine with the merged buffer
23:57:01linuxstbUnhelpful: How would you describe the quality of your image scaler?
23:57:30gevaertslinuxstb: "unprecedented"
23:57:42amiconnThe 'Do Not Disconnect' screen is not rockbox'. It's the OF's diskmode, which rockbox reboots into when it detects an usb connection
23:58:16Unhelpfullinuxstb: very good on color targets, less impressive on greyscale ones, where it's only nearest-neighbor scaling.
23:58:16gevaertsReliom: ah, ok. I was assuming that you were using it in no-disk-connection mode (i.e. just powered over usb)
23:58:18pixelmaReliom: the "Do not connect" is not Rockbox but Apples, so it looks like it doesn't detect that you only plug a charger. Try holding "select" while plugging
23:58:25funmangevaerts: no I'm not sure; I must see why test_codec (presumably) causes a data abort first
23:58:37gevaertspixelma: I think it's menu
23:58:40Reliomhmm ok
