#rockbox log for 2009-03-06

00:00:07*stripwax guesses ... sudo rbutil ?
00:00:33BigBambiOr at least someone told me it wasn't when I was checking whether to add it to the manual
00:00:33LambdaCalculus37(Assuming rbutil is in the /Applications folder in OS X) "sudo open -a rbutilqt.app"
00:00:48BigBambiLambdaCalculus37: Surely it is either needed or not?
00:01:02LambdaCalculus37BigBambi: I don't think it's needed, but I use it anyway.
00:01:07bluebrotherBigBambi: it seems to not be required for ipodpatcher but for some reason for rbutil
00:01:31BigBambiLambdaCalculus37: So if it isn't needed we shouldn't tell people to use it
00:01:35BigBambibluebrother: Ah, OK
00:01:58LambdaCalculus37bluebrother: It doesn't seem to be required for Sansapatcher, either.
00:02:02BigBambiI assume that that is the case for ipods and sansas?
00:02:09bluebrotherBigBambi: no idea why this is happening or whats causing this
00:02:40BigBambiI'll pop a note in the manual then if it is needed
00:03:28BigBambiLambdaCalculus37: I assume the line you gave above is the standard OS X one?
00:03:29LambdaCalculus37BigBambi: You have permission to pop a note in the manual. :)
00:04:00LambdaCalculus37BigBambi: That is assuming the user has copied the rbutilqt.app file into their /Applications folder.
00:04:35BigBambiLambdaCalculus37: Would that be normal, or would people download it to the desktop for instance?
00:04:38*BigBambi has no idea how OS X works
00:06:02stripwaxHow do I confirm if rockbox regular build server uses arm-elf-gcc 4.0.3 and arm-elf-ld 2.16 ? (wondering if my cygwin builds are using something that's recently become incompatible with something)
00:06:57JdGordon|doesnt it say in the server build log?
00:07:04domonokystripwax: if you hover over the numbers in the build server, you can see which gcc and ld server this particular build server used..
00:07:11BigBambiMind you, we don't tell people how to do root/admin for linux/windows either, just that they need to
00:07:14JdGordon|or that :)

00:08:01stripwaxdomonoky - ah, right - thanks!

00:10:26LambdaCalculus37BigBambi: No, open is to launch an app.

00:13:28BigBambiLambdaCalculus37: a) this is OS X regards to rbutil and b) we have been talking about sudo so far, so we suddenly switch to open?
00:13:44BigBambis/we/why/
00:14:14 Part salty-horse ("Leaving")
00:14:14BigBambiLambdaCalculus37: The whole point is that rbutil on OS X seems to need root rights
00:15:13BigBambiLambdaCalculus37: Perhaps you could re-read my questions and answer again :)
00:16:09bluebrotherwould be interesting to know why this issue happens for rbutil but not the patchers
00:16:37LambdaCalculus37BigBambi: In OS X, if you have to launch any app with root permissions (and not commandline apps like wget or anything), and assuming the application package resides in /Applications, you can type "sudo open -a <foo.app>" in the Terminal.

00:18:34*linuxstb wonders if peanus's problem was simply because he "formatted as fat32", rather than "converted the ipod to fat32" - i.e. if the Apple firmware still worked?
00:18:48linuxstbLambdaCalculus37: Didn't you succeed using rbutil on OS X without root rights?

00:21:19BigBambiThank you
00:21:45LambdaCalculus37linuxstb: Older versions needed sudo. I haven't tried with 1.0.9; just with the SVN build bluebrother gave me.
00:24:27linuxstbLambdaCalculus37: Are you sure? Maybe you had the same problem that stopped that version working the first time?
00:25:23LambdaCalculus37linuxstb: It's possible. I want to try testing this again, though.
00:26:13bluebrotherLambdaCalculus37: have you tested the svn binary with sudo too?
00:26:40linuxstbbluebrother: Does rbutil do anything other than search for an ipod's raw disk device?
00:27:07LambdaCalculus37bluebrother: No, I didn't. And I also can't find the build you rolled for me; can you send me another one?
00:28:25bluebrotherlinuxstb: during the remount wait? No, it only checks if the disk device that was used for installing is mounted again (using the getmntinfo syscall)
00:28:44bluebrotherLambdaCalculus37: domonoky created that one, I don't have the binary :(
00:29:04linuxstbbluebrother: No, I mean before the bootloader is written - i.e. before the "no ipods found" message?
00:29:15BigBambiI think we need to sponser either domonoky or bluebrother a Mac :)

00:32:35stripwaxListening to drive access on OF usb file transfer versus Rockbox usb file transfer on ipod video, it sounds like OF is performing quite a bit of caching - with Rockbox file transfer I can clearly hear seeking for each individual file written, but with OF file transfer there's plenty of silence (just spinning) from the drive while many files are 'copied' followed by a burst of seeking activity from the disk

00:38:50stripwaxSo maybe OF is simply caching writes in memory and flushing cache periodically and on eject. Not a bad strategy especially when host OS has been told to 'optimize for quick removal'.

02:31:19notlisteningok scorche I understand your point it has to be what people want and at the moment it is not
02:31:39Lloreanthomc: Did you force your OS to re-read the MBR?
02:32:13Lloreannotlistening: At the moment, it's almost certainly going to be too expensive. The featureset he's offering can mostly be purchased as a refurbished player for less than USD $20

02:34:39notlisteningok I will look again it take a long time my eyesight is not so good
02:34:47Lloreannotlistening: The first step (in my mind) would be to try to offer _all_ the functionality of Rockbox. So that when people are looking for a player, they see one that is obviously "better" than all the others, rather than one that's just "as good" but costs more.

02:35:41Unhelpfulpixelma: yes, ondio sim. next/prev scroll the covers, up toggles between cover / track list, down brings up the menu (that seemed weird), and there appears to be no scrolling the track list :/
02:36:07Lloreannotlistening: the unfortunate truth is that this player is almost definitely going to cost more than any other player you can run Rockbox on, just because it's going to be new and produced in smaller quantities even in the best case. So it needs to stand out as something worth paying a premium for (in my opinion).
02:36:46notlisteningI agree
02:37:06pixelmaUnhelpful: similar to c200 then (but worse). Why doesn't it surprise me though? :\
02:37:20notlisteninghumm well back to the drawing board i think
02:37:54notlisteningis there a feature set of rockbox and also a future planned feature set?
02:38:30***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
02:38:36LloreanThere's not really a future planned feature set.
02:38:58notlisteninglol well i thought i would ask
02:39:00LloreanThe best way to stay "future" friendly is to pick a CPU a bit more powerful than you need so that things like more advanced video codecs or new audio codecs are likely to perform well
02:39:53notlisteningright and how powerful are we looking at?

02:40:36scorcheas well, there are few devices that have, say, a digital out...some people like to have certain aspects for recording...others like very high capacity, still others might like other features..
02:41:32Lloreannotlistening: Well, it depends in part on whether you want to offer video (on the player's screen, or with an actual output to TV). If video isn't too important, the one already chosen is probably good enough. It will also probably handle the existing video playback fairly well.

02:43:58scorcheyou cant do everything everyone wants, as some liek small form factor, others like a lot of features
02:44:00LloreanI don't know if it's wise to go for _everything_ necessarily. It depends on how expensive it will end up, of course.
02:44:31notlisteningWell we are looking a making this for the people that want rockbox which in the main is you guys
02:44:50LloreanIf I were designing it, I would list every possible feature, then organize them by "importance" (as in, how much I thought 'everyone' wanted that feature) then try to guess how much each would add to the final cost, pick a target cost, then add them in from the "most" important, working down the list until I reached that cost.
02:44:59Unhelpfulpixelma: suggestions on a fix? define my own contexts for PLA rather than using combining contexts?
02:45:06notlisteninghumm it is very ahrd to know what to do
02:45:28Lloreannotlistening: I think you should make it for the users, not the developers. Many of us have several players anyway, and get new players to work on rather than to use.

02:50:34notlisteningdo you think that the developers here even without hardware initially will want to work on it if we have a sensible feature / design list
02:50:51pixelmaUnhelpful: if you ask me - get rid of PLA there </semi-serious>. Combining contexts is the worst you can do, so maybe as a first step you could try if it's possible to use one context in one screen and a second in the other. If you mean with defining your own contexts to invent a whole new one, I'd object as this is entirely against what PLA should be about
02:51:29notlisteningIf we could get the hardware designed and a way of producting the prototype will they follow
02:51:56notlisteningbuild it and they will come - field of dreams like
02:52:20pixelmaUnhelpful: then it's not different to have your own button (or action) definition in the plugin but hidden away. Or do you mean own action definitions in pictureflow?
02:52:53Lloreannotlistening: If the hardware is _really_ interesting you might get a few developers to work on it (and as casainho's demonstrated, it doesn't necessarily take many to get things rolling). But it's not really something I'd gamble on necessarily

02:53:47Unhelpfula context per screen, if there's a context that has all of the controls each screen needs, would be nice
02:54:06notlisteningand are there hardware guys who can help with the design as are skills are limited
02:54:39notlisteningSo don't bother
02:55:35Lloreannotlistening: Honestly, casainho's general idea isn't bad innately. It's just got some strange design choices that cripple it for being something you can attract people with (in my opinion)
02:55:52LloreanAs I said, the amount of RAM on it doesn't make sense for it being a flash-based player.
02:56:16notlisteningmaybe what we are trying to do is outside the scope of our ability
02:56:18LloreanThe vast majority of RAM is used for buffering from a hard disk. If there's no hard disk, an awful lot of it can go without causing a significant problem.
02:56:54notlisteningwekk that was something on the dev board but maybe he had more optuins if the choice of that
02:57:23LloreanYeah. My concern was just that when or if someone's looking around to try to get this produced, the people looking at producing it will thing that 64MB was chosen for a reason.
02:58:03notlisteningok, well this is something that we need to highlight to them
02:58:11LloreanIf you reduce the RAM to save cost, and pick a screen more modern (something 320x240 is pretty standard), and if the sound quality is good enough (I don't have personal experience with the codec he's chosen AFAIK) it doesn't actually sound bad.
02:58:26notlisteninglike most of the features on thatdev board they are not used at all
02:59:25notlisteningokay my concern was we are totally barking up the wrong tree
03:00
03:00:14LloreanNo, I wouldn't say that.
03:00:55notlisteningagain our mutual friend has chosen it because of the ease of development rather than its merits
03:01:17notlisteningand i understand why this is due to the lack ofany of our experience in the type of work
03:01:19LloreanI think one problem is that he's depending on the fact that it's "open" as a selling point.
03:02:41notlisteningyeah i agree it is what he is stressing and that might float a bit with googles efforts but the hardware must be as good as if not better
03:03:29notlisteningyou can have the best software ever running on a can of beans it is still only a can of beans
03:04:53LloreanIt's not _bad_ hardware or anything. It's just, it doesn't have anything to make me pick it over players that will certainly be cheaper and smaller.
03:05:06LloreanWell, the screen's kinda bad.
03:05:11LloreanBut everything else isn't really. :)
03:05:42LloreanIt will only really have an advantage if people _really_ don't want to buy refurbished, and if the Sansa AMS port either fails, or falls behind and a new generation of Sansas come out.
03:06:07JdGordonLlorean: why do you think the playlist insert thing is only useful for people who want to eventually save the playlist?
03:06:18LloreanI didn't actually say that.
03:06:48LloreanI said I think that for people who will save playlists, "Insert" is more useful than "Queue" because you're creating permanent playlists.
03:07:01LloreanFor people who won't save playlists, "Insert" is the same as "Queue" mostly, because in neither case are you keeping the list.
03:07:26LloreanBut I also said I'm not really too aware of the usual use cases for queue, in general.
03:08:01LloreanMy understanding of it is that it's for intentionally temporary things, so to me at least I wouldn't see someone queuing a particularly large number of songs. If you're going to queue more than just a small number, you may as well just insert them and not save the list.
03:08:05JdGordonI dont think having in mind that you might want to save it is relevant...
03:08:28LloreanSo the button should be used for Queue and not Insert?
03:08:49JdGordonyou're right that f you dont save there is no difference... bt you might want to save later and you know that you wouldnt want this track added
03:09:17JdGordonNO... my opinion is that choosing one f those options and hardcodng it is a bad idea
03:09:17LloreanMy point is about which single function is most appropriate. Do you think Queue is more valuable as a single-button function than Insert?
03:09:30peanusHALP (just a little) I was sent over to <http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/LangFiles>, by a link saying it had info on how to compile a lang file (i want Bork), but I can't find any info on how to compile one. is there another page with this info?
03:09:51LloreanJdGordon: Yes, but if that's the case, many of our hardcoded buttons are a bad idea. You're just trying to focus on one to get your foot in the door.
03:10:27JdGordonyou know i'm not...
03:10:53JdGordonespecially when we make a big dealabout this butto/action being the PLAYLIST ACTION
03:10:54LloreanJdGordon: "Some people might want other things" is exactly the same argument you could give for, say, making the Pitch shortcut keys configurable so that they can be used for other things.
03:11:21JdGordonyes it is.. but thats not the topic
03:11:30LloreanOr making the Volume buttons on targets with spare ones configurable, because you don't use them in the list when music isn't playing.
03:11:54LloreanNearly _every_ button we have, except ones explicitly labeled, can be argued as us "simply picking the function we thought would be most valuable to have."
03:12:08LloreanSo instead of arguing "this thing we've always done, we need to stop doing it" why not offer a single function that would be better on the button?
03:12:32 Quit peanus (Remote closed the connection)
03:13:46JdGordonI'm not suggesting all out customisable buttons... none is and only very few people want it... having a very limited subset of available actions for a button which is not in the "standard set" would be bloody useful and i think its a bad decsision that we dont do it
03:14:04JdGordonthe rec button in the list is one such button
03:15:06JdGordonand btw, i think the extra support argument is nonesense if its done correctly
03:15:35LloreanTell me, how do you do it in a way that doesn't require us to either ask additional questions, or explain how to verify what the setting is, before telling people a series of buttons to press to perform an action?
03:15:51LloreanWhat is this "done correctly"?
03:16:45JdGordonwell, for one thing if the maual doesnt usethat button as the standrd way of doing it... so it explain you need to get to the context menu to find the insert options instead of sayig "press rec to insert"
03:17:36JdGordonthen you can add "you can use the rec button to speed this up by choosing whch insert method to use, we dont recommend changing te value if you have problems "
03:17:47JdGordoni dont know.. something like that... its not hard
03:17:58LloreanHow is that not extra work for those providing support then?
03:18:16JdGordonhow is it extra work?
03:18:16LloreanIt's a bunch of extra stuff we wouldn't have to say if it's a hard-coded button.
03:18:33JdGordonits in the manual
03:18:39JdGordonyou say use defaults and rtfm
03:19:47LloreanWhat "limited subset" do you think is necessary then. Insert, Insert Shuffled, Queue, and Queue Shuffled?
03:20:00LloreanOr even simply "Insert" and "Queue"
03:20:24JdGordonand repeat last action...
03:20:54JdGordoni dont see why you cant give the full set..
03:20:54LloreanWhy?
03:20:59LloreanYou don't need the full set
03:21:15LloreanThere is no reason, ever, to need to repeat the other options more than once unless you don't pay attention and choose the wrong song.
03:21:31JdGordonits less work (code and support) to just give all the avilable option
03:21:32JdGordons
03:22:16LloreanIf you're talking about adding in a new action anyway, I don't see why shortening the list is "hard"

03:24:14JdGordonfine, whatever... shuffle shouldnt be ignored though
03:24:25LloreanI still don't think the button needs to be configurable.
03:26:01JdGordonI still see it as a completly pointless chang if its not
03:26:22LloreanSo it doesn't add ANYTHING that will help ANYBODY AT ALL if we don't make it configurable?
03:26:55JdGordonit add something to some unknown amount of users, instead of adding plenty to all users who use playlisting
03:28:23LloreanThis adds something to all users who use playlisting except those who want to save a playlist, haven't saved it yet, and want to add more songs into it that won't be saved.
03:28:34LloreanThat's a pretty select group.
03:29:42LloreanEven then, they would have to never, ever, ever create a playlist without the intent of saving it, and never ever create a playlist with the intent of saving it without also wanting to queue songs in it to not benefit from this.
03:29:46LloreanWhich narrows down the group even further.
03:29:48JdGordonalso those that want to add a track and dont care when its played
03:30:55LloreanAnd never create playlists the other ways.'

03:32:37JdGordonor more correctly, why should you choose for me which you think I would use most...
03:32:38LloreanYou could say the same thing about the "resume playback" button then.

03:36:21serendipity_hey all. i'm new to Rockbox. I want to install a plugin, but i cant find where to download them. For instance, http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/PluginTextEditor has info on the TextEditor plugin, but no download link.

03:40:05LloreanJdGordon: You're the one who was saying "it's a shortcut" is the reason it should be configurable. I was merely pointing out it's not the only shortcut.
03:40:14kugeleven if it was a shortcut, we actually cannot choose a non-redundant action, as the button isn't free on many targets
03:40:17plutonianare viewports in the official builds or are they a patch?

03:41:24kugelthis doesn't make any sense
03:41:35kugelvirtually any of those is covered by insert
03:41:41LloreanQueue isn't really
03:41:46LloreanNor are the two "Shuffled" variants
03:42:06kugelyes, shuffled not. But for queue, as you said, you just don't save the playlist, and are done
03:42:10LloreanBut "Queue" only matters if you have an unsaved playlist with songs inserted, and don't wish to save it before adding songs that you don't wish to have saved in it.
03:42:24kugelqueue is something I never understood the use for anyway
03:42:31LloreanFor shuffled, you should be able to turn shuffle off and back on again to reshuffle your playlist anyway.
03:43:04LloreanIt's not _perfect_ I'll admit, but it's about equally fast to going into the menu, reconfiguring what the one-button-press does, coming back, and then insert-shuffling everything
03:43:15LloreanAt least, if you have "Shuffle" on the quickscreen
03:43:20kugelWith insert, you can do almost anything and still need vastly less button presses for
03:43:21Unhelpfulkugel: "don't save the playlist" doesn't cover the case where you want to have some songs that will be saved with the playlist, and some not... though i can't really say why you'd want to do that, that seems to be what queue is for.
03:43:38kugelUnhelpful: I never used queue, actually
03:43:44LloreanI've used queue.
03:44:06LloreanBut usually if I'm listening to a short, repeating playlist and just want to hear a single song on this cycle, and not in future repeats.
03:44:33kugelwell, once or twice, to see what it does. But after I saw what it does, I also saw that I won't ever need it again
03:44:45plutoniansweet, it does work
03:44:59LloreanI would bet money that, on average, among our userbase, "Insert" would be the most used action if all the playlist actions had an individual button each and people knew the full use of each of them. Since it's impossible to test though, that statement means nothing.
03:45:03plutonianthe wiki article on viewports seemed to imply that it wasn't in the main build
03:45:20kugelinsert is the most flexible one
03:45:30LloreanBy far.
03:45:35JdGordoninsert is broken...
03:45:43JdGordoninserting multiple anyway
03:45:46LloreanJdGordon: Broken how?
03:46:05LloreanAnd the feature should be considered off of a non-broken insert anyway.
03:46:17JdGordonyou can get playlists like 1ABC23 (assuming 123 and ABC re in 2 seprate dirs)
03:46:46plutonianhmm
03:46:48LloreanSo it doesn't put the pointer at the end of the list after doing an "insert" on a folder?
03:46:55kugelof course you can. play 1, insert ABC at once, then insert 2 and 3 seperately
03:47:06plutonianwhat does "Data abort at 000098BC (0)" mean?
03:47:17Lloreankugel: No, he means "If I insert the folder ABC then 123, I get A123BC instead of ABC123
03:47:24LloreanWhich is broken if he's not using "Insert Next"
03:47:29JdGordonLlorean: yeah, there is a long tracker task for that wth an argument if its actually broken or not
03:47:42kugelThat's a bug then, which I've never experienced
03:47:46LloreanIt's very broken if that's what it does right now.
03:47:55Llorean"Insert Next" is what you'd use to get the situation you've got.
03:48:42Llorean"Insert" should always insert *after* the last song of whatever you last inserted. That's not only the most flexible way, but the fact that it doesn't do it right now makes it impossible to get certain playlists without inserting things in reverse order.
03:49:04JdGordonalthough.. fine.. i do see the argumet that only insert queue and shuffled (Q and I) is needed and not the whole lot
03:49:45kugeland I still think that shuffle is mostly covered too, by taking a quick tour into the quickscreen
03:50:03JdGordonthat ASSumes you still have shuffle on the qs
03:50:11kugelor just hit shuffle playlist, once after you're done adding 100s of songs
03:50:34Lloreankugel: There is the case where you don't want the songs you've already heard to be included in the shuffle, at least. So there is one specific case where it's true that "Shuffled" does something you can't accomplish otherwise.
03:50:55kugelyea, I said mostly. Sure there's edge cases
03:51:00LloreanJdGordon: Even going through the menus to find shuffle is going to take approximately as long as going through the menus to change the "Insert" setting to "Shuffled"
03:51:28LloreanSo even if you don't assume it's in the QS, it's still a time saver vs the old method of having to go to the context menu for every item.
03:51:41JdGordon? thats why im saying have the button there.. if you know you are usually going to want to insert shuffled have that set to the button
03:52:20JdGordonyour making the assumption that most people will only use regular insert.. im saying make it possibl to make everyonehappy
03:53:08LloreanJdGordon: Do you think we should have the "resume playback" button configurable to mpegplayer, midiplayer, FM radio, and WPS?
03:53:23JdGordonno, and thats irrelevat anyway

03:55:40JdGordonI'm not saying we shouldt.... I am saying that we art talking about it... im saying it doesnt have to be all or none
03:56:06LloreanJdGordon: So your real position is "we should make many buttons configurable, but I'm only arguing one at a time"?
03:56:34LloreanMy point is that this is a bigger issue than "just one button" and trying to pass it off as such is silly, because it's unrealistic to expect it won't then come up for several other buttons.

03:58:00*JdGordon gives up and just continues to outright reject the patch as it is
03:58:46LloreanYou reject it because we won't make a change to it that we won't make elsewhere in the source?
03:59:34JdGordonno, i reject it because its a stupid addition and its my right to object to patches i feel are useless... weather that counts for anything is another question
03:59:59LloreanWhat is a better addition that does not require a configurable button, then?
04:00
04:00:19LloreanIf your rejection has nothing to do with configuration, suggest something that is actually better but non-configurable.
04:00:48JdGordonim not sayin there is a better suggestion that doesnt give configurability
04:01:00LloreanSo it's the best suggestion that's non-configurable.
04:01:28JdGordonno, im saying the patch as it stands is stupid and pointless
04:01:45JdGordonand with minor tweaks wold be very usefull to everyone
04:01:47LloreanStupid and pointless, in your opinion, but there's nothing better without configurability?
04:02:11LloreanI mean seriously, when you use words like "stupid and pointless" on a patch you're even willing to admit will be pretty useful, you just sound bitter.
04:02:30 Quit saratoga ("CGI:IRC (EOF)")
04:02:39JdGordoni cant iagine why i ound bitter... maybe going round in circles on irrelevancies did that to me
04:02:47LloreanBut if you can't suggest something better without requiring a configurable button, then even if it's "bad", if it's the best option within those bounds and it's still what we should do, since by definition the other options are worse.
04:03:14*kugel agrees
04:03:19JdGordonwe already have plenty of configurability in rockbox
04:03:34JdGordonshould we remove the volume setting because surely -6is good for everyone?
04:03:34LloreanJdGordon: You're the one who's going around in circles. You keep trying to "prove" your point with arguments that apply to dozens of other things, but you say they don't need changed why this does. And yet you've yet to explain what it is about this one thing that makes the arguments apply to it, but not anything else.
04:03:51JdGordoni have never said they dont need changes
04:04:03JdGordonall i have said is WE ARNT TALKING ABOUT THEM
04:04:32LloreanJdGordon: And I'm asking you why they aren't allowed to be talked about
04:04:43LloreanIf your arguments are true, you should be arguing for a change in the configurable button policy in general
04:05:00LloreanIf that's the case, it has nothing to do with his patch, but rather ALL buttons that could be configurable based on your reasons why they should be.
04:05:00JdGordonim not alone in my opinion of that policy
04:05:27Lloreanyes, but you're trying to get that policy changed by avoiding arguing the policy, and calling a good patch "stupid" over and over in the hopes that you can get your toe in the door
04:05:46LloreanIf you want to get the policy changed, argue the policy itself. Don't try to sneak in changes.

04:08:21notlisteningu mean for the cost difference
04:09:02LloreanJdGordon: So now your statement is "a configurable button is exactly the same as a configurable anything else"? Like the volume example you gave earlier?
04:09:06kugelJdGordon: You're basically objecting to the button policy, but yet you keep telling "we aren't talking about the other buttons", that doesn't make any other sense than trying to sneak in your toes
04:09:30kugelnotlistening: yes
04:09:42LloreanJdGordon: All I'm saying is, if you want to get the button policy, argue the button policy. For this patch, when discussing it, we don't do configurable buttons so discuss this patch on the assumption that configurable buttons aren't an option.
04:09:51LloreanOnce they are an option, it can always be re-visited.
04:10:01kugelwell, I doubt the RAM will yield much savings nowadays, but still. 64MB is basically overkill.

06:08:05Unhelpfulhrm, how hard would it be to have a custom-drawn list like the pictureflow track list "work like" the core file or DB browser? ie, use the same buttons for scrolling, select/exit, etc?
06:09:55LloreanWhat's the problem with doing that?
06:11:01Unhelpfulonly that i have no idea how to do it :)
06:12:08LloreanAh.
06:12:14Unhelpfulit seems that the PF track list would be easiest to use if it had the same button map as the core browsers, with the back/cancel button returning you to the album view.
06:12:16LloreanCan you use core contexts in plugins?
06:12:42Unhelpfulthe album view, if it's going to keep using PLA, should probably only be using generic_left_right_fire
06:13:57Unhelpfulugh, that leaves it without a menu key. i can see some dislike PLA so much...
06:14:12LloreanPLA only works well in _really_ simple situations.
06:15:19Unhelpfulit really seems like *every* context ought to include a menu key.

06:17:40LloreanBasically, make the job "easier" in a general sense, but don't get all complex.
06:17:56Unhelpfulperhaps i ought to avoid PLA entirely, and just use the rb->get_custom_action that it calls :)

08:33:19Unhelpfulamiconn: actually, it worked on the sim, it's plugin-only, and i don't think anything further can be done to test it except on targets, anyway, so it's also r20213 :)
08:34:32amiconnUnhelpful: It's working :) Some remarks: (1) The startup screen looks funny, as it is black-on white with the logo looking inverted. Also the progress bar is huge. (2) Creating the album art cache took ~15 minutes. Not too bad when taking into account that it also takes a few minutes e.g. on the irivers.

08:40:08amiconnThe covers are quite recognisable (my recorder has the white backlight mod).
08:41:15*amiconn needs to think a bit about full screen animation on this thing
08:41:43Unhelpfulin what way?
08:42:11amiconnThe greylib itself achieves 36fps, so that's not the limiting factor
08:42:45Unhelpfulwell, there are a few fmul and fdiv calls per column rendered
08:43:41amiconnI know. Perhaps some could be reduced to 16*16->32. That is two instrcutions instead of a subroutine
08:44:42Unhelpfulgiven what you've said about shifts on sh1, you might also consider changing PFREAL_SHIFT to 8 (it's 10 now)... but that means redoing the sine table, as well.
08:44:49 Join petur [50] (n=petur@rockbox/developer/petur)
08:45:26amiconnBut even at 4fps, pf is already usable. It would probably be better to reduce the slowdown-when-achieving-centre if the fps are low
08:45:37amiconnAre these signed or unsigned shifts?
08:46:37Unhelpfulwell, PFreal is defined as a signed type, but the values in question are going to be unsigned in many of the right-shift cases
08:47:36Unhelpfulwould a ((some unsigned type)val) >> shift suffice to make the assembler use logical shifts without adding any other nastiness?
08:48:01amiconnI would think so
08:48:57amiconn>>10 for signed is 10 instructions on SH1 (and probably using a subroutine with those instructions), for signed it's two instructions (shlr8 + shlr2)
08:49:27amiconnEh, for *unsigned* it's two instructions
08:50:03Unhelpfulso making sure the shift is unsigned is probably worth more than changing the shift amount
08:50:56 Quit cool_walking_ ("http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client")
08:51:59Unhelpfulyou might also want to look at fdiv. i experimented with a function that would shift left as far as possible and return the amount shifted, instead of using clz and shifting by that amount. that might be a win vs clz calculation followed by a variable shift.

09:07:56amiconnI tried it, and it does indeed get faster. Now it almost always shows 4fps (once the cache is loaded), and sometimes 5fps
09:08:07Unhelpfulthe divide by PFREAL_ONE at 1473 should also be of a positive value

09:14:59Unhelpfulthe one in the last while loop is done in etiher case, and handles reflection fading. the reflection height is about a third of the screen height, less for columns rendered further away.
09:15:01amiconnWell, the "colours" passed to fade_color are actually 8 bit values, as is the alpha (well, alpha can be 256), correct?
09:15:34*amiconn adds casts to (unsigned short) in fade_color()
09:17:58 Join LinusN [0] (n=linus@rockbox/developer/LinusN)
09:18:09Unhelpfulwell, the alphas in the reflection table are always <256 in practice, and the passed alpha is always <256 when it's applied, since 256 is special-cased to avoid the multiplication entirely... so i think you could get away with treating the value as 0-255, if there are any relevant optimizations, such as an unsigned 8x8->16 multiply?
09:18:50amiconnSuch does not exist on SH1, but 16*16->32 does (both signed and unsigned)
09:19:08amiconnDoesn't seem to help atm - will do further tests tonight

11:45:39rasherSo far displaying of themes, uploading of themes, verification of the .zip structure (no .wps syntax check yet - but that's the plan) and verification of email, the beginnings of an admin panel where themes can be hidden/deleted.
11:46:10linuxstbSo every theme uploader will need to provide a valid email address?
11:46:17rasherYes
11:46:24rasherNot only valid, but one they control
11:46:28linuxstbOK, sounds sensible.

11:48:09*scorche nods in agreement
11:48:15Unhelpfulamiconn: any multiply larger than 16*16->32 goes to a libgcc function on sh1, right? i may be able to speed up the downscaler a good bit, some of the per-output-column-per-input-row multiplies can be limited to the hardware multiply size without restricting image size unreasonably
11:48:31rasherIt's not really an issue to do one or the other by default
11:48:40rasherSo whichever we decide on
11:49:01linuxstbI think it makes sense to publish automatically anyway - it's easier for us.

11:53:43rasherlinuxstb: I detect if zero or one rwps exists, yes. But the fact is not currently stored (that's based on the target the uploader selects). It should probably be a bit smarter there

15:50:28kugelpondlife: are you planning to commit before 3.2 or after?
15:50:41pondlifeBefore, I hope
15:51:30pondlifeWhy do you ask?
15:51:53kugeloh, I'm just curious. freeze is in 3 days
15:52:02pondlifeYep :)
15:52:03*kugel would like to have the disable wps update or rec button for playlist before 3.2 too, but tends to mess things up before releases too
15:52:41ldpAre you guys the developers?
15:53:11evilnickIf a new feature is added before the freeze then you have all the time in the freeze period to fix it up!
15:53:19pondlifeYes
15:53:28pondlifeevilnick: ^
15:53:36ldpGood work
15:54:00pondlifeBut I'd rather not commit something that needs fixing up...
15:54:10The-Compilerldp: some of the guys here are ;)
15:54:53ldpI see
15:55:34pondlifeI think of the freeze as a beta test period. Patches on the tracker don't get enough testing until the get into SVN, often.
15:56:37LloreanIf you want something to get wide testing, you should commit it right after 3.2. Not immediately before.
15:56:46evilnickpondlife: It does make it a lot easier to get feedback as all the users who can't/don't compile get to report their findings.
15:57:12LloreanIf it doesn't work out right before the freeze, you're just putting more things in we might have to cut and potentially end up with a 3.2 less stable than it could be. The whole point of release versions is to hope to have them stable.
15:57:19LloreanIs there some rush why the feature can't be in 3.3 instead?
15:57:20pondlifeLlorean: Does is make much difference? I am happy to wait if that's what people would prefer.
15:57:50Lloreanpondlife: In my mind, the freeze is the "formal" freeze. Shortly before that, people should be cautious about what they commit, and commit things that are _very_ unlikely to have problems.
15:58:04LloreanWe want 3.2 as stable as possible, rather than aiming for a lot of new features.
15:58:10LloreanOthers may disagree, though
15:58:23pondlifeAh, ok. I thought of it as a "feature complete" point, mainly.
15:58:36pondlifeNo rush on my behalf, certainly.
15:59:05LloreanI don't think two weeks is long enough to reliably go from "feature complete but possibly buggy" to "we're confident there's a minimal set of bugs" personally.
15:59:47LloreanIn my mind the best time to get new features in, is when they have the longest period to be tested.
16:00
16:00:19pondlifeMarch 24th then :)
16:00:35LloreanNah
16:00:43LloreanA week before that, because you can just commit it to the non-release branch
16:02:38LloreanThough if it's expected to work very well, I don't really see a problem with going for it now.

16:02:56Lloreankugel: The record button for playlist still needs to be adapted for all targets, and have a function picked for in the menus, right?

16:04:29n1spondlife: did the speedup patch get tested with audio that needed to be upsampled?
16:04:50pondlifen1s: Not as far as I know, but please do
16:05:16pondlife(Or, if you can provide me such audio, I'll do it.)
16:05:27Lloreanpondlife: We don't typically give users the option to turn off and on buttons...
16:05:36*n1s has no such audio
16:05:55LloreanInstead of thinking "configurable buttons" think "which button function adds the most functionality to Rockbox's featureset."
16:06:43pondlifeGuess I can always toggle hold.
16:07:21LloreanThe issue of configurable buttons is an issue that can be discussed, but it really should be outside what this patch does (since if it's accepted, then new functions can be added to this or possibly other buttons anyway)
16:07:46LloreanBut for this patch's sake, it shouldn't be held up on what may or may not be an indefinite debate on whether configurable buttons (either in a limited sense, or unlimited) are a good idea.
16:08:16*n1s is starting to like the idea of configurable buttons actually, probably limited to the "non essential" ones though
16:09:14*pondlife doesn't like the idea of core buttons being configurable, nor of "special buttons", and believes that ultimately Rockbox will have .keymap files or somesuch...
16:15:26Lloreann1s: The problem is, we're still picking and choosing what we think is essential.
16:15:42LloreanWe've already had people try to argue that things like seeking are nonessential and the buttons should be freed up for other things.
16:16:09n1sLlorean: i mean essential as "enough to fix messed up buttonmaps" basically
16:16:25Lloreann1s: I don't understand.
16:16:36n1swhat is more important is the hw limitations though, not all buttons can be used in combos etc
16:17:41n1sLlorean: that depends on how the maps are done of course, it it is like a theme file then i guess i think any button that can be mapped should be possible to map

17:08:09 Quit orsonj (Remote closed the connection)
17:08:12rasherIt's simply to make people have to think less when re-using stuff from other themes. If all themes use the same license, things get far simpler. (and yeah, WTFPL on its own would do it in theory, but to save people the bother of having to look it up)
17:08:14kugelLlorean: well, there's nothing to insert, so it has no action yet
17:08:46serendipity_do they even have a no-attrib yes-commercial yes-derrivative not-share-alike?
17:09:13kugelplaylist_viewer could be done. But I fear that user don't get the difference between menus and database/filetree, which would then lead to unexpected behavior
17:09:23rasherserendipity_: There's the very recently released CC0, but the "standard set" doesn't have no-attrib I believe
17:09:35serendipity_philosophically....yes-commercial, because as a pirate, i benefit from corporate works all the time || and no-credit because i hate writing documentation, and want to spare others from it (and foss purists usually give credit anyways) || and derrivatives-under-any because ... meh
17:09:52serendipity_where do i get cc0?

18:07:21_Wonkoassuming the intended behaviour is shutting down the player when you pause the playback for an extended period of time... does rockbox do that on other players than my first gen ipod?

19:07:58Slasherirasher: looking from the patch, it would at least add 16 bytes for each song and then the actual data for the sort tags (not sure if that data may get to the ram for faster searches)
19:08:07pixelmaI still don't understand why it shouldn't display sort tags, I mean in a record store it will be "Presley, Elvis" too

19:13:31Lloreanrasher: As long as the size increase is "per song" and possibly "only for songs where the tags are present" the amount shouldn't matter since it's user choice whether to increase their own DB size.
19:13:54rasherLlorean: I think it'd be for all songs.
19:14:18LloreanWell, as I said "possibly" for that one.
19:14:52rasherHuh, did I not just *move* tools/release/w32sims.pl?
19:15:00*Llorean thinks that if the database is set to filter by "artist" it should use sort_artist when present and artist when not, but that maybe there should be an option to explicitly sort by sort_artist that simply shows the contents in that tag and sorts by it, for people like pixelma
19:15:12LloreanSince sorting by a tag without any defaulting doesn't require any particularly fancy new logic anyway

22:04:28shotofaddsand yes, I thought it was strange adding that to config-*.h - but several other targets seem to do this

22:11:21*bertrik starts working on charging for e200v2
22:12:05gevaertsof course. It's just that I have this tendency to think that we have a driver for tcc usb, while in reality we have a partially working good enough for debugging one
22:12:07*shotofadds wonders if vitja has any intention of working on this in future
22:13:07shotofaddsgevaerts: indeed. although I'd say it's "just about passable" rather than good enough..
22:13:13shotofaddsUMS is rather unreliable
22:14:06gevaertsMaybe I should try to fix it before tackling things like USB host...
22:15:48shotofaddsgevaerts: I think that depends how useful it would be. Eg. there's not much need for fully working USB on the D2 right now, altough it is very helpful for debugging. If this controller is used on other targets, maybe it becomes more important
22:16:08 Part |amadeus|
22:16:33*shotofadds is away for a while
22:18:31gevaertsshotofadds: I think it's useful for various reasons. We want this driver for the meizus as well, I don't like leaving it in this state, and I've never really worked a FIFO-based driver before. Getting some experience with it will help with other drivers later on (like the AMS)
