00:04:39linuxstbjhMikeS: beastpatcher has the bootloader.bin embedded in it (similar to ipodpatcher and sansapatcher), and it creates the single-boot nk.bin on the fly. You just run it without any parameters and confirm at the prompt.
00:04:57jhMikeSah, neat.
00:05:57toffe82linuxstb: yesterday I tried it on linux and it was not working, did you make any changes ?
00:06:24linuxstbNot knowingly... Was that before or after I committed the windows changes?
00:06:47toffe82I think before, it was yestrerday morning
00:07:03linuxstbWhat happened when you ran it?
00:07:09toffe82the player ends up with a screen error 3 needs to reload firmware
00:07:16 Part captainkwel
00:07:24toffe82I try it with OF 1.1 and 1.2
00:07:38linuxstbSo the upload appears to work, but then the firmware is rejected?
00:07:45toffe82beastpatcher was saying upload ok
00:07:51toffe82yes
00:08:36linuxstbDoes your beast accept a single-boot bootloader with sendfirm?
00:08:54toffe82I didn;t try it

00:10:09toffe82I will try to installed with sendfirm
00:10:16donaldhi there
00:10:25jhMikeSlinuxstb: Just have MTP_DLL.dll in the same dir and an OF nk.bin and run it?

00:23:34jhMikeSI didn't get a combined bl, just a single-boot one though.
00:23:43linuxstbYes, that's all it does at the moment.
00:24:04 Quit Zagor ("Clint excited")
00:25:10jhMikeSIt just overwrote the dual-boot one I threw on there. I seriously suggest to try padding the single boot bootloader just to see if it's a size issue.

00:31:12linuxstb;)
00:31:34jhMikeSactually, then it would be kind of neat if it had the functionality of mknkboot in there as well
00:31:47linuxstbYes, that's on the to-do list.

00:50:14jhMikeSIt did that after clicking "cancel"
00:50:17linuxstbAfter you press i, the "send_fw" function in MTP_DLL.dll is called, which find the beast, uploads the firmware, then closes. So I'm wondering where in that process it happened.

02:18:06jhMikeSlinuxstb: are you saying that there are beasts that cannot be upgraded at all, dual boot or not?
02:19:02jhMikeS*upgraded to rockbox* of course
02:19:35linuxstbNo, I was just wondering if anyone had succeeded on 1.2
02:21:12linuxstbToshiba kept the v1.2 update very well hidden, so I'm just thinking that maybe no-one has tried it until toffe82 found it...
02:24:04jhMikeSI seem to recall that when he tried it (isn't that the firmware upgrade he found?), he succeeded using dual boot but not single boot and that's why I asked him if it ever worked as single boot before that upgrade but no answer on that.

03:05:45Unhelpfulhere, i think, is what i'm going to do with pictureflow. the only think synchronized between threads will be the album index. the "loader" thread will start at the center, and try to load as many slides to each side of it as possible. it will try to use rb->bufalloc to get the memory first, and then fall back to allocating from the plugin buffer if that fails. if the cache table is full, or bufalloc fails and the plugin buffer is full,
03:05:45Unhelpfulit will free the farthest cache entry from the current center.

12:23:14Virtualdistancei am
12:23:35Virtualdistanceim trying every codec avaiable from the other players to see if they load up
12:24:59LloreanI meant, for example, writing debug code to determine where in the codec failure occurs.
12:25:37LloreanAnd, to clarify, when asking about it you should ask about "Rockbox for (player name)". Rockbox v2 sounds like you're asking about the v2 release of Rockbox from ages upon ages ago.
12:25:48Virtualdistanceim checking if some other codec is similiar.
12:26:13linuxstbVirtualdistance: The problem is likely to not be in the specific ".codec" file, but somewhere in Rockbox itself.
12:26:32linuxstbThe .codec files are generic code, which work fine on all other targets.
12:26:50Virtualdistancenice to know.
12:27:23Virtualdistancei'll play around with it then :)
12:27:43linuxstbIIUC, the flash driver is also unreliable, so it could simply be caused by reading bad data from the disk... i.e. the problems could be anywhere...

12:48:15pixelmaI'm currently looking at the invadrox graphics and adaptation to the small screens. Currently it uses one big bitmap which contains all needed graphics + a lot of defines in absolute pixels that help divide the bitmap into the needed parts later. IMO it would be better to split that up into a few bitmap (strips where possible) so that it can get the dimension defines from the bitmaps.
12:48:15pixelmaThis will help simplifying the code and make it more flexible if one wants to invent a new size but the number of bitmaps in the source will increase (I think it needs 9 instead of 1 - unfortunately 4 of them would be "single" bitmaps - for each of the currently 2 different sizes and I'll probably draw 1 more size). I'd like to have some opinions beforehand, or other ideas...

12:56:28pixelmamaybe you could save some bitmaps by using a "real" font and not own bitmaps for it bit that would only be possible (without disturbing too much) if the plugin could chose that one itself, e.g. the current small version uses bitmaps which are 5 pixels tall for the numbers

14:10:41BuschelIs there a usecase known that uses the iPods lineout without the need to enable accessory supply?
14:11:58LloreanYeah, basic docks.
14:14:44Buschelhmm, a pitty. I wanted to include lineout on/off to the accessory supply handling...
14:16:04LloreanThe line out is going to be used in a wide range of docks and dock-like things that will be providing power to the iPod, rather than the other way around.
14:17:49BuschelOk, but if these docks supply the iPod with power it would be no problem to enable accessory supply then. Only the wording of the setting could be better "Use with accessory" or something similar. But before talking of such some measurements need to be done ;-)
14:18:35LloreanWell, people shouldn't have to turn on a setting just to set it down in a dock and use it.
14:18:52LloreanMost people are going to set it down, then come complaining that it's not working with their dock since the original firmware doesn't require a setting.
14:19:26BuschelThe setting is on by default. But for power-conscious users this setting is one of the important ones.

15:33:48linuxstbDevices with the same name are completely different, and devices which are identical (apart from disk size) have different names...
15:34:16*freqmod_gq has modified md5sum plugin and run it on sansa clip, and got a completly different sum than when doing the same in the simulator on the same file
15:34:44freqmod_gqwhich means that if somebody wants to fix skipping on ams-sansas they should fix that first
15:35:03linuxstbIsn't "disk issues" a known problem though?
15:35:41freqmod_gqyes, it is, but then we know that it is not the buffering, or audio codec (which we allready suspected)
15:36:38linuxstbThere's nothing ruling out additional bugs there though, is there?
15:37:54freqmod_gqno, it is not, however if file reading doesn't work that would make that the lowest common determinator

16:55:25LloreanOkay, just to summarize, discussion has once again broken out about the idea of any filetype Rockbox shows in "supported" mode being in playlists and running with the appropriate viewer (or core action, in the case of .cfg etc) when they're reached in the playlist
16:55:54LloreanThis would, of course, allow one to shuffle in a selection of themes with their random playlist so that their theme changes as they listen, or playlist up several videos, etc.
16:56:03kadobanthat would be cool for goban plugin too, for doing go problems
16:56:33evilnick_6Llorean: Would there be a way to specify "choose a random .wps for each file in this shuffled playlist"?
16:57:09Lloreanevilnick_6: No. It would just be a playlist where some of the files were theme.cfg instead of song.mp3, so when you hit that file in the playlist it changes themes.
16:57:13LloreanIt works for a variety of things
16:57:36LloreanFor example, with unshuffled playlists, you could have it start crossfeed before certain albums mastered in a way that essentially needs it, and disable after.
17:00
17:00:38linuxstbWouldn't having per-track/per-album .cfg files (e.g. named using a similar method to AA) be more useful? That's often been requested.
17:01:08LloreanMore useful within that one context, sure.
17:01:30gevaertsThat's a lot less flexible. With any-supported-item playlists you can do things like video playlists, or alternating video/audio
17:01:38LloreanBut that wouldn't allow playlisting of videos or other things you could do with the flexibility.
17:02:00*Llorean thinks many people might want to throw music videos into their playlist.
17:02:55linuxstbgevaerts: But that's also more inconvenient for this example - the user would have to create playlists, and add the cfg to every playlist with specific albums/tracks.
17:03:32LloreanIf you "Insert" the folder, it could insert the .cfg file in that folder too.

17:04:01linuxstbYes, but that needs care to make sure it's added in the right place.
17:04:08gevaertsThis won't work well with shuffle
17:04:32*gevaerts thinks that maybe both features should be considered as separate things
17:05:09LloreanBoth features can be considered separately I'm sure.
17:05:49LloreanI just think "deal with any file being in a playlist" would add an awful lot of interesting (in a positive way) behaviour. though there'd be kinks to work out with insertion

17:06:12gevaertsSure. I want it!
17:06:22*gevaerts doesn't care much about per-album settings
17:07:30LloreanFor me the "ideal" insertion strategy would be inserting the same files we do currently in every situation except manual insertion of a single file. Not ideal for creating non-music playlists, but at least it means nobody gets unexpected behaviour from all the new 'legal' filetypes
17:09:08kadobanwhat about inserting a directory with no audio files in it? that seems like it could add all supported files

19:22:42kugelno, really?
19:22:44kugel:P
19:24:19gevaertsThe only question I have is should we remove the SERIALIZE_WRITES code entirely, or just disable it? If we remove it, it can't be reenabled easily should it be needed, but if we don't it will suffer from bit rot
19:26:34kugelgevaerts: well, given our tradition, that we don't want unused code and don't code for things that *possibly* happen in the future, it should be removed
19:26:48LloreanJdGordon: You were looking at fixing bookmarking up at some point, right?
19:27:12Lloreangevaerts: Probably worth removing, since the code will be just as "around" in SVN as being ifdeffed out.

In my mind, at least, Bookmarks should know the "Repeat" and "Shuffle" setting that were in use when they were made (so for example when resuming an audiobook shuffle disables and repeat turns off since that's what you used when you made the bookmark)
19:30:41*gevaerts removes SERIALIZE_WRITES
19:31:31JdGordonwhat does bookmarking do currently? I know it keps the random seed (it has to) but i dont think it actually changes the shuffle settin (and dont think it should or needs to)
19:34:19LloreanI think it absolutely should.

22:12:52DaveWoyciesjesWiki page is good to see if a device works or not. But if you want an answer as to if it could work, or may be worked on, a bug submission is the way to go.
22:12:53saratogawell unless someone can provide useful information about why it doesn't work, what good is it?

22:13:39saratogakugel: you mean compiling binutils?

22:13:46kugelyes
22:13:59saratogakugel: I could build everything, just rockbox wouldn't make
22:14:17saratogai had to hack up binutils though due to the bug mentioned in todays email
22:14:22saratogadidn't know about that configure switch
22:14:33kugeloh
22:14:34Lloreansaratoga: A wiki page with a list of public email addresses probably just means a lot of our reporters won't leave us a way to get in touch with them easily.

22:14:52saratogaI'm not sure what the point of getting in touch with these people is
22:15:02saratogaits unlikely any of this could be debugged remotely
22:15:05 Quit rocko ("Leaving")
22:15:11saratogai think the only benefit here is that we'd get a list of what doesn't work
22:15:18DaveWoyciesjessaratoga: to get more info about what is/isn't working, and to test a possible fix.
22:15:33saratogaI see no point in having people test fixes
22:15:41saratogawho ever has the fix can simply commit it when its done
22:16:00DaveWoyciesjesIf a developer contacts me about testing something to get Rockbox to work with my FM/RDS transmitter, I'm more than happy to help.
22:16:08saratogasure but no one is going to do that
22:16:30Lloreansaratoga: I disagree
22:16:39kugelsaratoga: I guess I need to install binutils for my system before compiling it for arm?
22:16:51LloreanLook at the original Protocol patch to see a lot of feedback from people regarding whether the differing baud rates worked, etc.
22:17:03kugelI mean a newer version, I'm still on the intrepid packages(which is 2.18 I think)
22:17:04saratogakugel: i just followed the instructions in the wiki for building arm-elf-gcc manually
22:17:17saratogaand downloaded binutils and gcc
22:17:19DaveWoyciesjessaratoga: Why not? If I was a developer, and had time/inclination to fix the software, but not the hardware, I would contact people who do have the hardware.
22:17:47saratogaDaveWoyciesjes: what exactly are you going to do if someone contacts you? how do you plan to help?

22:19:53Lloreansaratoga: Well there could be benefit in seeing how far we get with it before we fail, and dumping what we get from it in regard to unsupported commands (in this case, probably the bitmap stuff)
22:20:08LloreanSome sort of test plugin
22:20:24DaveWoyciesjessaratoga: Yes, it's not easy, but the knowledge gained can be used for other parts...
22:20:37saratogarealistcally I don't think it could

22:20:59DaveWoyciesjessaratoga: Yes, I'm not a programmer, but am good with computers in general, and know how to follow directions.
22:21:14Lloreansaratoga: In this case it's just an FM transmitter, odds are fairly good it's just the bitmap commands that we don't cover yet. If that's the case, it's code I *think* that's known about, we just don't handle it yet.
22:21:20linuxstbI agree a ist of willing testers would be useful - there are literally thouands of different ipod accessories, no-one can own them all...
22:21:31gevaertsDaveWoyciesjes: I have a hard time imagining how a developer can find a bug that only happens with your setup, especially if this "bug" is a caused by incomplete understanding of the protocol
22:21:36rasherThat could happen in the wiki as well though
22:21:44Lloreanlinuxstb: The question is more "do we accept bug reports against IAP or ask them just to put 'doesn't work' in the table?"
22:21:52rasher"accessory | works/doesn't work | List of owners"
22:22:24rasherLlorean: "Put doesn't work - and your wikiname - in the table"?
22:22:28linuxstbI can't see the harm in having a list of users willing to test things...
22:22:42DaveWoyciesjesgevaerts: Yes, if it is only in my setup. BUt I suspect that anyone with the same Xmit has the same issue.
22:22:50LloreanI just don't think the wiki is the best place for this, over all.
22:23:04LloreanI don't think we need one bug report for every device.
22:23:08gevaertsDaveWoyciesjes: yes, but this hypothetical developer doesn't
22:23:08rasherlinuxstb: But why have that list in Flyspray - you'd have a hundred "Accessory X doesn't work" reports
22:23:23DaveWoyciesjesLlorean: THe Wiki is good for what it has now. Acc name, and status of what works/doesn't work.
22:23:28LloreanBut possibly a single bug report for "Incomplete IAP" to which people can add their comments after adding to the wiki table, so that people can 'subscribe' to updates...
22:23:30linuxstbrasher: I assumed it would be a wiki page... I haven't read the full backlog.
22:23:47saratogalinuxstb: no the argument was for filespray tasks for each device
22:23:53DaveWoyciesjesgevaerts: THen he can contact me for more info.
22:24:15rasherLlorean: What's the issue with having it in the wiki?
22:24:17Lloreanrasher: The problem with the wiki is that it's one-way for most people. Flyspray mails out updates for you.
22:24:19linuxstbsaratoga: Then I think that's just pointless, unless someone is actively working on one, and they post a patch to start the task.
22:24:28saratogaexactly
22:24:39rasherLlorean: Sure, once you start working on something, open a flyspray task with a patch and tell people to test it and report back
22:24:42Lloreansaratoga: The argument was for A FLYSPRAY TASK
22:24:45gevaertsDaveWoyciesjes: what sort of info? This isn't the sort of thing you can easily work on by email...
22:24:57*linuxstb guesses he should probably read the backlog...
22:25:00Lloreanrasher: How do you get word out to people with the broken accessory that they need to test it?
22:25:12rasherContact them...
22:25:19LloreanI think a single flyspray task that these people can subscribe two, and a later patch can be put on, would be easiest.
22:25:19saratogaor don't contact them

22:26:43LloreanThey put their devices not working in the table, they add a comment to the Flyspray task with the non-working device or simply click "Watch" and when someone finds out more about IAP they post a patch to that task, everyone with unworking devices immediately gets an email, hopefully some of them try it and then update the wiki page.
22:26:54LloreanIt greatly increases the odds.
22:26:55DaveWoyciesjesIn my particular case, one Flyspray task for iPod accessories that connect via dock connector?
22:26:58saratogai don't care if its one task or one wiki page, either way i think i should continue to close the tasks people open about random device x

22:30:50DaveWoyciesjessaratoga: Understand. I still don't like irritating people for no reason.
22:31:04LloreanI definitely didn't intend for a whole bunch of tasks in the tracker, but I think the wiki-page is more or less just "file and forget", nobody's going to make the effort to get in contact with everyone on it to find out if IAP improvements help their individual case.
22:31:41DaveWoyciesjessaratoga: If I knew where to start, I would get working on it. :) But alas, I'm not a software programmer, just a support tech. :)
22:32:05evilnick_6Perhaps form a sub-group of the Wiki users with members that have issues with the IAP? Send an update and request a re-test when there has been progress?
22:32:06LloreanDaveWoyciesjes: Well, it could be months or years before someone fixes your problem. Learning to program in your spare time can take less than that. :-P
22:32:28rasherevilnick_6: that seems far more trouble than it's worth
22:32:34saratogaok i'll open a task now for it
22:32:40DaveWoyciesjeslinuxstb: Yes, a generic transmitter would work, but the one I have has better sound quality because it takes the line-level output from the iPod.
22:32:46Lloreanrasher: At the time I suggested he post to the tracker I was thinking "The wiki page isn't good enough" not "how do we handle it well in the tracker." =/

23:01:52rasherI think someone should look into new bootloaders for the soon-to-be usb-enabled targets, so we don't boot into the OF when USB is inserted
23:01:54gevaertsBefore we can enable USB on PP5022 by default, I think we need to think about several things
23:02:24gevaerts(a) I think FS #9935 needs to be fixed first
23:02:42Lloreanrasher: Fortunately, they're all pretty easy to deal with re: bootloaders
23:03:00gevaerts(b) we need to know how itunes reacts to rockbox UMS, and if it doesn't like it we need to decide how to deal with it
23:03:46LloreaniTunes shouldn't even think we're an iPod, should it?

23:04:25rasherI expect it to do more checks, but you know now
23:04:50LloreanIt does those custom SCSI inquiries but I don't know if that's part of the test to see if it's an iPod, or if that's just for setting the clock and what not.

23:43:48kugelI mean the bootloader
23:44:18kugelit's apparently prepared for USB, the boot of if USB part is #ifndef'd
23:44:38rasherAh.. Yes. I really think releasing with USB enabled for these targets without also releasing a bootloader that doesn't boot to OF would be really silly.
23:44:47amiconniPod Mini G2, R/W speed: Rockbox USB 3.2/2.7MB/s, Diskmode 15.0/4.2MB/s
23:44:58amiconn(this is with 32GB CF)
23:45:01gevaertshm
23:46:00kugelamiconn: btw, the patch applies without problems
23:46:06kugelthe gcc one, that is
23:46:46*amiconn guesses ATA DMA is the key
23:46:48rockoFOR REAL
23:46:53rockoRESPECT
23:50:12gevaertsamiconn: that's a big difference. I've noticed that my CF mini is a lot slower than my c250, but I didn't compare with the OF
23:50:34amiconnJust put it into diskmode and compare
23:51:02amiconnI also compared diskmode and OF - they have identical USB transfer speed
23:51:12amiconn(unlike on Nano and Video)
23:52:17Lloreanrasher: Well, iTunes traditionally just rebuilds bad filesystems.
23:52:24LloreanRebuilds missing files, etc.
23:52:56rasherLlorean: But if it decided that it's not an iPod at all, wouldn't it just ignore it?
23:53:19rasherSame as it ignore other MSC devices
23:54:54linuxstbBut doesn't Rockbox use the original USB IDs?
23:55:17rasherSure, but it could base that decision on other facts. Lack of response to the SCSI stuff being an obvoius one
23:56:44midgeyEnabling "Start iTunes when this iPod connects" made no difference. iTunes didn't open up at all
23:56:55linuxstbYes, I'm sure it will use the scsi identify thing - that returns exactly what ipod it is, what firmware it's running, what audio codecs it supports, etc... (could be fun to hack...)
23:57:09rasherThat seems ideal, for us
23:57:31rasherAs long as we don't want to try pretending to work like an iPod
23:58:28midgeyheh, I'd like to see an iriver sync up in iTunes :P
23:58:29linuxstbI can imagine any Rockbox user still using itunes would want that though.
23:58:47linuxstbAnd yes, if we implement it for ipods...
