00:36:19allelewill the rockbox compiler automatically will convert division by any power of 2 to a shift to the right command?
00:37:43Quintasanrasher: thanks
00:38:07rasherallele: the rockbox compiler is called gcc, and the answer is "probably maybe"

00:40:45alleleok, so my best bet is using the shift operators?
00:44:04rasherYou could try looking at the gcc output to see, it really should use shifts, but I've heard of gcc doing weirder things
00:50:43Unhelpfulkadoban: you're looking to display a menu of string labels that map to integer values, basically?
00:51:56Unhelpfulmcuelenaere: did i correctly understand that the MIPS clz instruction produces 32 for an input of 0? pictureflow should probably be using it in place of the C function on MIPS, then, as it does on ARMv5+
00:53:05kadobanUnhelpful: yes. i have it working of course, but it's ugly having to keep the strings and the numbers in line. an enum would help but i thought that i had seen a prettier way to do it all in the MENUITEM_STRINGLIST somewhere
00:53:37kadobanit may have been in my dreams as i can't seem to find it...
00:53:45mcuelenaereUnhelpful: yes it should, at least when I get around some storage for these devices :)

00:56:10Unhelpfuldo you know what kind of multiplication we can do on MIPS? the scaler uses 40-bit unsigned multiplies, these are done via the emac on coldfire, and using C code that generates 32x32->64 multiplies on ARM. sh1 just operates at lower precision, using 8.24 instead of 8.32 math.
00:56:37kadobanUnhelpful: hmm, that's not half bad. thanks. that's basically what i was planning to do if there wasn't something better, but it looks nice in practice so i'll just do that.
00:57:20mcuelenaereUnhelpful: I'm not MIPS expert, but the datasheet does mention some special multiply+add etc instructions

00:59:03Unhelpfulkadoban: it looks to me like you could globalize the MENUITEM_STRINGLIST somewhere, and just call rb->do_menu directly - the caveat is that you will have to use an int instead of a "real" enum, because pointers to the two are not compatible.

01:00:11mcuelenaereUnhelpful: when doing multiplication and divison on MIPS, you need to get the result out of 2 'special' registers; and if I'm not mistaken they're both 32-bits big

01:00:48Unhelpfulmcuelenaere: if we're *really* lucky, then, gcc will do the right thing for MIPS as it does on ARM ;)
01:01:19mcuelenaerelet's hope so :) (perhaps we'll need to fiddle with -mtune and -march)
01:02:42Unhelpfuldo we have a programmer's manual for it? this looks like a marketing datasheet :/
01:03:24mcuelenaereUnhelpful: The MUL instruction multiplies two words and writes the result to a GPR. The 32-bit word value in the GPR rs is multiplied by the 32-bit value in the GPR rt, treating both operands as signed values, to produce a 64-bit result.
01:03:31mcuelenaereso it is 32x32->64?
01:04:22Unhelpfulso the output is in two registers?
01:04:57mcuelenaereyes
01:05:09mcuelenaerewe'll, not directly; but they can be moved to two registers

01:10:07Unhelpfulhrm... can i actually build one of our mips targets pretty easily? that would probably be the fastest way to see what gcc does.
01:10:29mcuelenaererockboxdev.sh should work
01:10:53mcuelenaereor do you already have the compiler?
01:11:06mcuelenaereif so, you can build the Onda VX747 bootloader
01:12:34Unhelpfulhrm, only the bootloader?
01:13:59mcuelenaereyes, as there's no working storage driver there's no point in getting the main firmware to work..
01:15:36Unhelpfulah. so, if i want to see how the sort of math the scaler uses would compile, i need to inject it into the bootloader
01:16:01Unhelpfulor just put it in a test file, and compile that with the same flags we use for rockbox
01:16:12mcuelenaereyes, something like that
01:16:26mcuelenaerealthough you'll probably need a working config.h etc

01:24:27yaoluislgcan i dualboot rockbox and the original ipod firmware
01:24:35Unhelpfuli think the C math can stay, as on ARM. here's what it generates for MIPS: http://pastie.org/382165
01:24:56PaulJam__yaoluislg: yes, the procedure is described in the manual
01:25:18amiconnUnhelpful: gcc isn't *that* braindead ;) It does replace divisions by a power of two by shifts (with some fixup code if the division is signed)
01:25:21yaoluislgreally can i use the utitlty thing to install rockbox and will it still let me dualboot?
01:25:48kadobanyaoluislg: yes and yes
01:26:04yaoluislgum ok so i justr run the installer and thats it?
01:26:07mcuelenaereUnhelpful: how does this get handled on ARM? Does that also support 32x32?
01:26:31Unhelpfulmcuelenaere: pretty much exactly the same, except without special-purpose registers
01:27:02mcuelenaereoh ok, I didn't know that ARM could do something like this
01:27:29Unhelpfulamiconn: what needs fixed up, from a signed right shift? does division need to round toward 0?
01:27:35amiconnyes
01:28:35kadobanyaoluislg: rockbox actually requires the OF to be there actually, because you need that to transfer music to your ipod (rockbox has no USB released for ipod yet). you should read the installation section of the manual and browse the rest of it a bit. but yeah, installation is relatively painless.
01:29:22yaoluislgoks o if i use the installer utility it will install everything for me am i correct also will this let me play videos on say a 4th gen ipod?
01:30:20kadobanyaoluislg: read the installation instructions :). and look at the mpegplayer plugin section in the manual or the wiki, but yes it can play videos of specific format
01:30:31yaoluislgok thanks man

02:38:59wemdowemdI have an iRiver H10 20gb, and I've been running RockBox on it for awhile. Recently I tried to resize the partition on it and broke it pretty badly. It still starts and runs fine (albeit correctly reporting 12gb rather than the original 18), but computers can't open it. They say the disk is corrupted. I therefore can't reverse what I did, or use the iRiver repair program (and even if I could...
02:39:02wemdowemd...I don't have their firmware because they no longer host it, which is required in the process). I remember the installation of RockBox required the preexistence of some files from the original firmware. My question then, is can I just fresh-format the whole thing and install RockBox again afterward, or am I screwed with that option too?
02:39:11 Join Darksair [0] (n=user@221.221.165.213)
02:43:36wemdowemdah fsck it, I'll format it anyway. Can't hurt any more than it already is

02:51:48 Quit evilnick ("mibbit.com: byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee")
02:51:58Unhelpfulcertainly. perhaps nobody who knows how to help you is active at the moment, though.
02:53:20Unhelpfuli don't know if you can format the whole thing, but if you resized *and moved* a partition (ie, changed which disk block it starts at), without properly resizing and moving the filesystem on it, that would likely be your problem. what did you use to resize?
02:53:33wemdowemdUbuntu's gpart
02:54:16wemdowemdAs I said, I'm reformatting in FAT now with windows. My question is whether I can install RockBox on such a freshly formatted drive, given the flash 'BIOS' of the player will still be intact
02:54:32wemdowemdThere was no partition moving donw
02:54:41wemdowemdjust resizing. I chopped a few gig off the end
02:55:36Unhelpfulok, if you resize a partition to a smaller size, and don't resize the filesystem down *before* resizing the partition, that will corrupt the filesystem, as well
02:55:44Unhelpfuldo you mean gparted?
02:56:28wemdowemdyes. Well that's what I did then. Funnily enough though, while Windows and Ubuntu could no longer read the disk, Rockbox continued to work fine, and correctly reported the reduced size.
02:56:44wemdowemdIf only it had a built in filesystem/partition editor :)
02:57:31Unhelpfulthat's a fairly absurd thing to have inside rockbox, though...
02:58:11Unhelpfuland rockbox may very well continue to work fine, provided you never try to touch anything past the new end of the filesystem... and possibly even if you do.
02:58:34wemdowemdYeah, I'm joking. How is it so robust?
02:59:39Unhelpfulwell, if rockbox is willing to silently read past the end of the partition, the rest of your filesystem is still there ;)

03:08:29wemdowemdhm. I certainly know less than you about it, but this is the sort of thing I need to know for what I was/am trying to do. My original intention was to put an encrypted partition in there, which would contain a small 'liveUSB' linux install. It's part of an ongoing attempt to make a locked-down, 'spy' style portable OS
03:08:58wemdowemdThe MP3 player is getting so old it's ready for replacement now anyway, so I'm playing with it
03:09:29wemdowemdIn an ideal world the OS could be accessible from the screen of the player itself, but that's a pipe dream ATM. I'm more concerned with the complexities of encryption and boot-partitions
03:13:18Unhelpful...yeah, rockbox is probably never going to support booting some custom OS from an encrypted partition that you've added to it, unless you write a plugin to do that yourself. :/

03:18:01wemdowemdNah, as I said it's all musing at the minute. My main plan is to make a portable, bootable OS that's secure. That's the biggest portable storage device I had laying about, and I thought it would be cool if I could keep the music-playing partition on there as a disguise
03:18:54 Quit Aurix_Lexico (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
03:21:39Unhelpfulyou may very well be able to "rescue" the device if you just resize the music partition back up... assuming you've not written to the data after it.

08:29:47 Quit CaptainKewl (Read error: 60 (Operation timed out))
08:32:25*Unhelpful thinks that PLA might be more useful as an engine for handling table-based mappings of buttons to plugin actions, than as that *plus* a set of predefined mappings.
08:34:08*pixelma can't follow at the moment and decides it's time for some more coffee
08:36:41Unhelpfulpixelma: isn't that basically what its button_mapping structs are? i'm saying it might be less flakey if plugins that did anything odd defined their own button_mapping
08:38:47insanepotatowhen doing my own builds, is it possible to enable extra optimisations of any sort?
08:39:21Unhelpfulrockbox isn't gentoo - and that's not the point of gentoo, either. :)

08:40:28pixelmaif you are brave enough you could enable Rockbox USB on your c200

08:41:28insanepotatoi dont want risk breaking it, i need it for music

08:46:32pixelmaUnhelpful: if you mean in the plugin file itself then I agree. But I wouldn't like that pluginlib keymap file become a collection of all sort of button mapping structs because having to look up things in a second file if you are doing your own anyways isn't nice
08:46:55Unhelpfulno, no, in the plugin file is exactly what i meant.

10:41:36Unhelpfuli think this is probably ready. the main purpose is to get the renderer to work in a way that i understand, so that further tweaks to the slide layout, etc will be easier. as a bonus, it's also a "real" 3D projection. http://pastie.org/382392

11:41:10pixelmaUnhelpful: did you already commit some test plugin or something for aspect ratio corrected greylib scaling for the Archos screens?
11:41:47J-23now works, it recorded a 50-second wav file
11:43:12J-23also Rockbox on that player wasn't updated for a looong time
11:43:40bertrikI made a patch so that serial port support is only included for targets that really use it, can someone have a look at it?
11:44:46bertrikit's at http://pastebin.ca/1329807 and simplifies the condition for adding serial port support. It should save a little ram and binsize on most targets.
11:49:14Unhelpfulpixelma: if you edit apps/plugins/SOURCES, test_greylib_bitmap_scale.c is such a plugin, in a way :)

11:50:35pixelmaok, I'll try that on my Ondio - anything on how to use it / what to look for when testing?
11:56:35Unhelpfulwell, you might try making a bitmap with some shapes that will show up aspect ratio distortion - squares or circles would be quite obviously if out by 20%, as they would be if uncorrected. just save something a good deal larger than the screen, and use the context menu to open it with the test plugin

12:05:04Unhelpfuli wouldn't try to scale down from more than 2-3x screen dimensions, but i don't really have any benchmarks for the speed of the scaler on archos, at least until pictureflow-on-hwcodec is ready ;)
12:06:39bertrikmcuelenaere, I tested all the archoses and the ipods to see if they still build correctly (and they did) and a couple of other targets, so I think it's safe

20:54:27gevaertsAlHaz: 0.2.x I think

22:14:53saratogaffmpeg has the slowest svn ever
22:14:55Unhelpfulyou're right. we could grep the header, but that relies on *finding* it.
22:15:08AlHazMy coding skills are mainly limited to minor edits. I understand the syntax but lack the mojo for creating it.

22:16:34bertrikAlHaz, ok, I was thinking about RDS support, but that does indeed require new code to write, datasheets to read, experiment, etc.
22:16:48AlHazhehe, these chips didn't exist when i worked for that team
22:18:14AlHazLineo believed in QC. Freescale Semi doesn't.
22:18:54AlHazI left there in 2001 when the investment capital ran out. A few months later Motorola bought it from Canopy and later sliced off Freescale
22:19:11AlHazthe guys who were the linux kernel team at lineo are now the freescale device driver team

22:20:05saratogamaking WMA pro fast on targets with IRAM may be interesting
22:20:42saratogai see that MS has increased the max IMDCT block size to 4096 samples, times 2 channels, times 2 overlapped blocks
22:20:53saratogashould be fine for AMS though

22:39:24Unhelpfuldoes wma pro lossless use (ir)MDCT?
22:39:26saratogabut the WMA codecs are weird with blocks, WMA std had 5 different transform sizes, and used all of them
22:39:37saratogalossless is actually a different codec then Pro
22:39:59Unhelpfulthey need to stop giving vastly different things the same names at MS :/
22:40:00saratogabut its IMDCT based
22:40:34Unhelpfuli'm assuming one of the "new" reversible IMDCT?
22:40:45saratogai only skimmed it so far, but it looks a lot like WMA std with much better huffman coding, better stereo handling, more sample rates, etc
22:41:03saratogaUnhelpful: you mean lossless?
22:41:04gevaertsWho are the people "working" on lib-izing tools/database?
22:41:14bertrikwhat is holding us back from using a more recent version of gcc?
22:41:24saratogabertrik: not much
22:42:06saratogai think mostly just a lack of motivation to setup everything for a new gcc version
22:42:12Unhelpfulsaratoga: yes, i mean lossless. there are recent integer approximations to DCT/MDCT that have the property of being reversible, so that the inverse transform of unquantized coefficients is guaranteed to give you the input data.
22:42:33Unhelpfulmpeg4-sls uses one such transform, i *think* :/
22:42:40saratogaUnhelpful: I don't think anything is known about WMA Lossless but as far as I know, there are no practical transform based lossy audio codecs
22:43:25saratogathough i don't know much about the mpeg4 lossless codec except that not much uses it
22:44:18saratogabertrik: i setup gcc4.3.2 for arm a while ago, but ran into some weird issues compiling, though other people have done it without trouble so i'm sure it was my fault
22:44:48Unhelpfulwell, there are *two* of those, as well, als and sls. sls seems to be based on one of the reversible DCT approximations, so that the "lossy core" can be decoded as AAC
22:45:08saratogaits probably worth having though due to the improvements for later arm processors and perhaps coldfire
