#rockbox log for 2009-03-08

00:00:29Wraith|okay so i have a question here. i won a cheepo mp3 player from one of the sponsors at a competition i took part in. i have no (official) manufacturer or model number. the only items i could find are as foolowed, Leeds' ASI/66887 Item 1660-30BK PO 108761. any chance i may be able to hack/edit the firmware or change it?
00:01:08Bagderchance: yes easily: no very hard work: yes
00:01:37Wraith|how would i go about it, and is there a chance that there is projects out the on it?
00:02:31linuxstbhttp://www.rockbox.org/wiki/NewPort
00:02:53Wraith|thanks
00:03:08Bagderhttp://www.leedsworld.com/products/item/?item=1660-30 <= is it this one?
00:03:30zelooks made-for-promos hehe
00:04:27Wraith|Bagder it looks very similar
00:04:30Wraith|could very well be it
00:04:56Wraith|numbers match, so yes it is it
00:06:38Bagderyeah, it seems hard to track any firmware downloads for that anywhere, possibly it can't even be upgraded
00:07:21Wraith|i agree. the manual (mostly in chinese) says how to upgrade firmware, but not if it is upgradeable
00:07:34Bagderoh that's what I meant

00:12:13toffe82can somebody look at the firmware of this player : http://www.p4c.philips.com/cgi-bin/dcbint/cpindex.pl?scy=GB&slg=ENG&cat=MP3_PLAYERS_CA&sct=HDD_AUDIO_JUKEBOX_SU&grp=PORTABLE_ENTERTAINMENT_GR&session=20090307175919_99.130.5.139&ctn=HDD070/17&mid=Link_ProductInformation&hlt=Link_ProductInformation
00:12:22Bagderno, only been back for a few hours... got them now!
00:12:35toffe82it is a fwimage.ebn , is it a portal player ?
00:13:03toffe82the update is : Encrypted_FWImage_HDD070_4.41d.ebn
00:13:04Bagdertoffe82: yes, that's the typical philips name of the mi4 files
00:13:23toffe82I think I can get one cheap
00:13:23Bagder(the .ebn I mean)
00:13:24LloreanBagder: Do we know that they only use it for MI4 files? It might just be a standard extension they use?
00:13:33Bagderyeah, it could
00:14:36LloreanThough at least odds seem good it's an MI4

00:24:32rasherWhat kind of info do we want to save for themes when doing checkwps? Individual SVN revisions, or just "current" and "release x.y"?
00:24:36rasherOn the themesite
00:24:55 Join gromit` [0] (n=gromit@ALagny-154-1-12-154.w83-112.abo.wanadoo.fr)
00:26:52Lloreanrasher: Save?
00:27:11bluebrotherrasher: how about "release" and svn revision?
00:27:13LloreanI think the only thing we need to test against is current and "last stable"
00:28:01gevaertsWe probably want to know which specific revision was tested
00:28:16*rasher thinks for a bit
00:28:20gevaerts(unless you retest on every revision)
00:28:31LloreanMaybe we should just retest every release, and not worry about in-between.
00:29:19rasherWe'd need to have an updated checkwps anyway, or we'd not be able to accept themes that use features added since the last release
00:30:23rasherOkay, so test against "release" and "current", and remember which revision "current" refers to (and re-test all themes against "current" once a day/week/something)
00:30:31LloreanDaily checks? "Good as of <date> and with Stable <release number>"
00:30:44LloreanOr weelky
00:31:02LloreanBut instead of SVN revisions, we could just use a date since it's not going to be too precisely useful anyway.
00:31:39LloreanA lot of people will have no clue about SVN revisions anyway. The theme site is *probably* going to be more widely seen than just about anything else.
00:31:50LloreanThough...
00:32:12LloreanIf we could build checkwps binaries with every commit in the distributed system, rbutil could verify WPSes when it downloads them, too.
00:32:32rasherHow?
00:32:47gevaertsI'm not sure if we need the revision number for user purposes. I just think it's useful to store it in case weird things happen
00:32:49LloreanCouldn't rbutil download checkwps?
00:33:04rasherLlorean: We'd need to build checkwps for Linux{*}, OS X, Windows..
00:33:20Lloreanrasher: Ah, true.
00:33:41Lloreanrasher: Maybe we need a way to separate the "rules" from the binary
00:33:58rasherI just don't think rbutil should meddle with this
00:34:02LloreanThen rbutil could have its own validation, and just download the latest rule text.
00:34:11LloreanWell, if RBUtil installs themes that don't work, people will file bugs.
00:34:23rasherBut the themesite will make sure it doesn't!
00:34:28Lloreanrasher: Not really.
00:34:32rasherWhy not?
00:34:47LloreanIf you last ran the check 5 days ago, and the WPS syntax changed 3 days ago, they can download broken themes.
00:34:56rasherSo we check every day instead.
00:35:08LloreanThat just narrows the window, but it is much better.
00:35:14Lloreanis there one specific file that defines WPS syntax?
00:35:24LloreanWould it be possible to just re-run the check when that file changes?
00:35:55rashergwps.c or something like that.. I think it's easier to just do it every day, and have an option to manually re-run
00:36:14amiconnAaarrrgh!
00:36:21Lloreanrasher: Ought to be good enough.
00:36:58amiconnapps/gui/bitmap/list.c uses the drawmode field of viewports to store the text styles instead of the drawmode

05:14:43scorche.....huh?
05:15:12scorcheElk: that sounds odd...have you tried both the latest SVN version and the lastest release?
05:16:07ElkI have whatever it is they have at http://www.rockbox.org/download/
05:17:00scorchecould you try the latest version whish is here? http://build.rockbox.org/
05:17:00soapThat's the latest release.
05:17:03Alex00088I have a new motherboard, and modem. I haven't got the modem working in Ubuntu yet, and I don't know if I will . IIRC rockboxdev had do download some things when I installed it.
05:17:11scorchethough the release should be fine..
05:17:30soapAlex00088: it downloads the cross compilers.
05:17:38scorcheAlex00088: rockboxdev.sh built the crosscompilers for you
05:17:43soapSo you need to back up them as well.
05:17:52Alex00088are where are they?
05:17:55scorcheor just run rockboxdev.sh again
05:17:57Alex00088*-are
05:18:14Elkwait, so I should install the latest build?
05:18:39scorcheElk: well, the release should work, but try the latest build for kicks and giggles

05:19:15Elkugh, I don't feel like that right now
05:19:31Elkis there anything else I can do?
05:20:34Alex00088If explaining where the crosscomilers is would take a long time, how about - Is there a package I can download in Windows?
05:21:48soapElk: since you are using the widespread release version, and nobody else has reported this strange problem, the odds are your "Play" button is doing something abnormal.
05:22:06scorcheor that you are doing something wrong
05:22:12soapPerhaps it is bouncing. If you are in the WPS, with a track playing, and press and hold "Play" - what happens?
05:22:44soapYou could also boot into Apple Diagnostic Mode and test your buttons.
05:23:19Elkmy play button pauses music just fine
05:23:34soapBut, this is very unlikely to be directly a Rockbox issue. If I Had To Guess I'd say the issue is your Play button is failing and that you only see the issue in Rockbox because Apple firmware does not make use of a long press of Play anywhere in the UI.
05:23:55ElkI forget how to boot into diagnostic mode
05:23:59soapgoogle.
05:24:10Elkright
05:24:22scorcheElk: if you hold it while playing, does it stop the music and return you to the file browser or database?
05:24:40soapI groked that you had no trouble pausing - I was curious what happened on a long press of play in the WPS - i was curious if the track would pause and unpause during one consistent press.
05:24:42scorcheAlex00088: well, rockboxdev.sh typically installs them to /usr/local/<arch here>-elf/bin, but there may be other issues, like your new ubuntu installation not including packages that you might need
05:25:19The-Compilerws 14
05:25:21The-Compileroops
05:25:26soapbinutils, build-essentials
05:25:33ElkIt pauses and brings me back to the menu
05:25:46scorcheok...and now try and hold play again
05:26:03soapok, going back to the menu is a long press - so that is registering.

12:41:03Unhelpfulhrm... it looks as if a plugin calling get_custom_action can define a context that defines only a few buttons, and chains to a core context, but this can fail in several ways due to different meanings of CONTEXT_CUSTOM
12:42:30BXCracerfound out that saratoga send him a fuze. So if funman needs a clip please dont hesitate and ask, i will get him one cheaply
12:43:37Unhelpfulcore contexts use CONTEXT_CUSTOM, but it's also the flag used by callers of get_custom_action to indicate that the custom button map function be called to get the next context. i think that the latter case needs a new flag, so that chains to arbitrary core contexts won't have unexpected side effects

14:00:42Unhelpfulpixelma: targets with huge numbers of buttons can safely change only the left/right buttons, because they have other buttons mapped to ACTION_STD_OK
14:02:55pixelmahmm... so the context is chained to a core context?
14:04:14Unhelpfulit's not, right now. it just includes all the other buttons, usually mapped similarly to core contexts. :/
14:05:34bertrikwould it be possible to detect unused #includes in source files?
14:05:54Unhelpfuli'm *trying* to chain to a core context, but very strange things happen, like the next call to get_custom_action somehow processing the same button again, and falling through to the core context, where (on my beast) it finds BUTTON_LEFT mapped to ACTION_STD_CANCEL, and then pf exits. :/
14:08:26Unhelpfulpressing the power button, which maps in the chained CONTEXT_TREE to ACTION_TREE_STOP, ends up shutting off the device, even though it's a press, not a hold. :/
14:08:30pixelmaI don't understand why this is :/ . IMO if you have something non-standard, do your own thing and be done with it. Of course it's harder in the beginning and won't work well on some targets but at least people who know a target better have an easier way to fix
14:10:02pixelmameant as a reply to the "it's not chained right now"
14:12:30Unhelpfuli'm inclined to think, though, that if chaining can work properly, it makes more sense on *most* targets to only define the left/right scroll, and define a complete, unchained context in the plugin only for targets where chaining can't work neatly... for example, if left/right buttons are the *only* ok/cancel.

14:46:43Unhelpfullinuxstb: i didn't think of editing out the existence of the boot partition entirely... and getting into flash on beast seems to be the only way we can *actually* remove the boot partition.
14:47:57linuxstbWe control ums mode, so can expose whatever we want... The e200r for example does the same thing (only exposes the main partition, not the firmware partition).

14:49:15Unhelpfulhow would we update the firmware then? only in bootloader usb mode, or only via OF + sendfirm?

14:50:56linuxstbIn Rockbox's MTP mode ;)
14:51:54linuxstbWe could even do something similar to many OFs - if a file with a specific name exists in the root directory, move it to the firmware partition on boot.
14:52:19Unhelpfulhrm, yes, that might work, as well.
14:52:24amiconnImo we should just hide the firmware partition. This woul dcause windows (and probably linux) to not mount it, yet it can be mounted manually (I think) and tools can still access it
14:53:01Lloreangevaerts: So what does it send when you "Safely Remove" the beast? Nothing?
14:53:07Unhelpfulamiconn: gevaerts is trying to make RB USB mode work as a removable drive... we're not sure yet if hiding is sufficient for that.
14:53:19linuxstbamiconn: gevaerts said that WIndows apparently doesn't like removable drives with multiple partitions. This is a way around that (see 10 minutes ago in the logs)

14:56:10UnhelpfulahHAH... chaining to "CONTEXT_TREE" doesn't get me the context_tree table on beast... that needs to be CONTEXT_TREE|CONTEXT_CUSTOM, another reason that CONTEXT_CUSTOM should not be the flag used by get_custom_action
14:59:28linuxstbgevaerts: Isn't this a problem on most targets though? i.e. don't lots of them have a partition table and multiple partitions?

15:01:03amiconnWindows *does* support removable devices with a partition table, just not multiple actual partitions
15:01:58Unhelpfulright, but is marking a partition hidden sufficient for windows to allow the device as removable?

15:08:02ipoodhello
15:08:10ipoodis this the right place to get some help with rockbox?
15:08:17linuxstbYes, just ask.
15:08:22ipoodcool
15:08:42ipoodwell i've installed it all fine but when I goto database it says its not initialised so i press select
15:08:55ipoodthen it says found blah blah and then after a while the ipod freezes
15:09:04ipoodI've tried stable and svn builds but still the same prob
15:09:44bertrikdo we have any policy on #include files? like having #include files including other #include files they need? and who #includes the master config.h file (needed to know which features are enabled)?
15:10:12linuxstbipood: Yes, that happens to some people. Either your disk is corrupted (check it with something like chkdsk) or you have one (or more) files that for some reason Rockbox chokes on.
15:10:44Learamiconn: Does the Ondio have any special multivolume handling? Rather, do you have any idea why the Ondio FM sim would not have the strip_volume function?
15:10:50linuxstbbertrik: I don't think there's any written policy, but IMO it's good practice to always include everything you need (and no more).
15:11:06amiconnLear: Sims don't simulate multivolume
15:11:27bertrikfor example, playlist.c is #including abrepeat.h which in turn #includes system.h/kernel.h, so playlist.c gets the cpu_boost prototype only indirectly via abrepeat.h
15:11:46bertrik(and abrepeat.h itself doesn't really need it)
15:11:58linuxstbbertrik: Cleaning up these includes would be very nice...
15:12:26Learamiconn: Well, HAVE_MULTIVOLUME appears to be set for that sim, at least in bookmark.c (but not dir_uncached.c)...
15:12:36bertriklinuxstb, ok, I'll work a bit on that

15:14:36ipoodlinuxstb my ipod file system just got corrupted, does it happen often with rockbox?
15:15:03Unhelpfulpixelma: it looks like the cause of your ondio problem may be similar - ondio maps CONTEXT_TREE|CONTEXT_CUSTOM to button_context_tree, and that's not what i'm using.
15:15:09linuxstbipood: No. Rockbox's filesystem code has been stable for about 5 or 6 years...
15:15:29linuxstbBut you always need to make sure you cleanly eject your ipod when using USB.
15:16:50pixelmaUnhelpful: is there a quick fix I could try?
15:16:51ipoodlinuxstb are the files in ipod control usually ok to be used in the database. I'm just going to format to fat32 and then rebuild my itunes music db
15:17:42 Quit Thundercloud (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
15:18:57gevaertslinuxstb: whta needs testing is if marking the partition as hidden FAT works. At least type 0 ("empty") does work, as that's what ipods have.
15:19:14Unhelpfulpixelma: change the get_action(CONTEXT_TREE) to get_action(CONTEXT_TREE|CONTEXT_CUSTOM)
15:19:53Unhelpfuli'm working up another patch to not reuse the CONTEXT_CUSTOM tag in get_custom_context, since it prevents chaining to core contexts that use it.
15:20:47linuxstbgevaerts: And the Sansas have "0x84 - OS/2 hidden C: drive" So it may work...
15:20:58linuxstb(although that's the second partition...)
15:21:07gevaertslinuxstb: the sansas don't count. They have the firmware partition at the end :)
15:21:15linuxstbYes, I just remembered...
15:21:39linuxstbipood: Music copied from itunes will be put in iPod_Control. And yes, the database should scan that happily.
15:21:52gevaertsAnyway, hidden FAT would be nicest I think, but if that doesn't work 0 works. Not a huge difference as far as the code is concerned...
15:23:08linuxstbSo the plan is to do this on-the-fly? Will Rockbox USB reject attempts to write to that partition, or should we just let them through? (let the user hang him/herself...)

15:25:01gevaertsMaybe a debug menu item that disables the on-the-fly changing?
15:25:58n1si still like the button press in the bootloader to show the partition
15:27:05gevaertsyes. I think we need a way in both the bootloader and rockbox to allow plain no-changes access. In rockbox I think the debug menu is good enough, and I guess a button press is the only way that works in the bootloader
15:27:53LloreanAnd for "user" purposes, we'll document the bootloader one in the manual?
15:28:12n1sis this something we *need* to have for the release?
15:29:20gevaertsI don't think so. The *only* thing that doesn't work right now is the go-back-to-normal-mode-on-disconnect feature
15:30:12gevaertsI'd like to try and fix that today for removable devices, but even if I don't manage that I don't think it's critical in any way
15:30:33n1sok, so all we really need for the beast to be releaseble is an official bootloader/beastpatcher release?

15:38:03n1slinuxstb: is it realisyic to expect it to be workign well enough for the release?

15:38:49gevaertsUnless we forcibly grab the disk back when the OS tries to mount again, but I don't like that very much either

15:39:43linuxstbn1s: Getting it working on OS X and Windows... For OS X, the problem is getting it to build and statically link with libmtp and libusb.

15:41:25linuxstbFor Windows, it is currently working using the external MTP_DLL.dll, but it would be much nicer to compile it as a single .exe. It could also benefit from implementing the same API in MTP_DLL.dll that is used by beastpatcher with libmtp - i.e. an Init() function, then a scan() function, then an upload() function, then a close() function. Currently MTP_DLL.dll just has a single "upload" function.
15:41:32n1sotoh, would it be bad to release 3.2 for the beast at a later date if everything is not done?

15:42:26linuxstbI think it's probably too late anyway for a nice release. We would also want rbutil to support the Beast, and to have the install method tested a little.
15:42:46linuxstbThe important thing is just to get it to "supported" status.

15:44:56linuxstbI think we need to agree on the bootloader functionality as well. i.e. how it reacts when it's booted with a usb cable (or usb charger) attached. Currently booting with a usb charger will cause it to wait indefinitely for a usb connection...
15:44:59n1sgevaerts: that's what i had i mind but i think i like linuxstb's idea better, just make it "supported" once the install is nice enough

17:19:39MartynIn the case of the Sansa, the original firmware files still reside outside of the .rockbox directory, allowing you to switch between the two system images :)
17:19:49KejlsnWhy does it auto-create "Calenders", "Contact" and "iPod_control"?
17:19:58Martynit didn't.
17:20:06MartynThose were already there, AFAIK
17:20:18gevaertsthe Apple firmware creates those
17:20:30MartynThose are the directory structures created by iTunes to handle Calendars, Contacts ...
17:21:03KejlsnOk, because I format my iPod and they still auto-creates...So I was just wondering
17:22:08MartynWith the exception of the new iPod Touch and the little Shuffle, iTunes treats an iPod like a hard disk, and simply writes the files it wants
17:22:48MartynThe ipod Touch is different, and uses a complex set of API's + hash signing, and now even a bit of DRM to prevent read/write from the device.

17:29:39MartynNow, we -do- already use it, for accessing files and playback. I feel that on the whole, and based on that alone, there should be no issues if I create a FAT32 formatting utility inside of RockBox

17:30:21BigBambiI don't think it is worth it
17:30:40BigBambiBut don't let me top you :)
17:30:44BigBambi*stop
17:31:17gevaertsPeople using old archoses may like such a plugin, especially if it also does partitioning
17:32:08BigBambiMartyn: What advantages would it bring that doing it on the PC wouldn't (I'm genuinely asking)
17:32:30MartynWell, assuming I can use a BSD licensed library with no other encumberances (and optimize it a bit) it might add as much as 16K to the .rockbox image
17:32:47*kugel thinks he fixed insert
17:32:55 Quit Kejlsn ("ChatZilla 0.9.84 [Firefox 3.0.7/2009021910]")
17:32:57gevaertsMartyn: if you're talking about a plugin it won't increase the rockbox image at all
17:33:40MartynBigBambi : In the last four weeks I've found myself needing to format a microSD card six times, in three different devices
17:34:06MartynBigBambi : and, of course, I never had the stupid microSDHC -> SD or usb adapter sitting around.
17:34:28MartynBigBambi : So it got me thinking to the more generic case, of RockBox devices with expandable media support
17:34:37BigBambiBut surely you can now do it via Rockbox USB?
17:34:52webguest43advcomp2019, that must have been one of the last devices reviewed by james kim on cnet http://reviews.cnet.com/mp3-players/sandisk-sansa-e280r-rhapsody/4505-6490_7-32102346.html?tag=mncol;lst
17:35:01MartynBigBambi : Nope. On the Sansa, for example, USB support even in the latest build is very, very poor.
17:35:20*gevaerts looks for Martyn's bug report
17:35:34BigBambigevaerts: Is that true? You can't format via Rockbox USB?

17:35:51gevaertssure you can. I do it all the time
17:36:00BigBambiMartyn: It can only get improved if people tell the developers about the problems
17:36:10BigBambigevaerts: I thought so
17:36:17Martyngevaerts : Mine consistently fails to copy files on PC and Mac
17:36:19advcomp2019webguest43, can you stay on topic
17:36:24BigBambiMartyn: So you can format via USB
17:36:25Martyngevaerts: as well as formatting
17:36:45linuxstbMartyn: There is some GPL'd formatting code in ipodpatcher you might want to look at. It's taken from the GPL'd fat32format.exe (a Windows app, as the name implies).

17:37:13webguest43advcomp2019, sorry thought you were talking about your e280R
17:37:31BigBambiMartyn: And what do you mean by latest build?
17:37:40*linuxstb or MrSomeone should really go back and finish implementing fat32 conversion in ipodpatcher...
17:38:27MartynBigBambi : The sansa is running r20216090306
17:38:34kugelOk guys, PLAYLIST_INSERT has a bug currently. If you start a new playlist with insert, insert will add the files in reverse order
17:38:37advcomp2019webguest43, yea but we talking about the player and their sizes
17:38:53kugelthis is the reason why "Insert" is really "Insert last", when no audio is playling
17:39:01BigBambiMartyn: Have you run a disk check?
17:39:16kugelI could fix the bug and get rid of insert_last
17:39:27MartynBigBambi : Yes.
17:39:39 Quit Horscht (Client Quit)
17:39:45kugelthough, this would mean that if you use insert to create a playlist, the next insert will append at the end of the playlist
17:39:49BigBambiWell, that is odd then, as for many people it is anything but "very very poor"
17:39:50pixelmaLear: any plans about the config-ondiosp.h (I admit I didn't check whether the SP sim is broken as well)?
17:39:51MartynBigBambi : I also reformatted the SDHC card on a both a linux and windblows box.
17:40:13BigBambiWhich incidently, diminishes the huge amount of work people have put into it
17:40:19kugelstarting playback with select will make insert work like normal
17:40:29kugelor starting with insert last, I believe
17:40:40Learpixelma: Not really, no. I only fixed the red case I saw...
17:40:45kugelany opinions?
17:40:51gevaertsMartyn: is this using a single sd card, or different ones? Same brand/model? What does it do for internal?
17:41:09advcomp2019Martyn, let me update my sansa out to test this
17:41:36Martyngevaverts : When did USB support fixed in the sansa originally? Prior to installing r202216 it used to bounce back to the original firmware when connecting for USB disk mode
17:42:03Learpixelma: But I'll try building a sim here.
17:42:07BigBambiMartyn: I don't understand your first sentence
17:42:11Martyngevaerts: Well, there's only one SDHC card slot, so yes .. just a single card. 8Gb, SanDisk card.
17:42:37BigBambiMartyn: Multiple different cards - having one slot doesn't mean you can only own one card
17:43:01gevaertsMartyn: I mean, you said "three different devices". Of course there's only one at a time...
17:43:04webguest43have there been any reviews of the quality of the audio hardware in mp3 players?
17:43:12webguest43or are they all about the same?
17:43:16Martyngevaerts: I have two cards, an 8Gb and 4Gb, both SanDisk micro SDHC.
17:43:28BigBambiwebguest43: Not really a subject for here
17:43:50Martyngevaerts: The last card is a standard micro SD card, 2Gb .. also SanDisk
17:44:00webguest43BigBambi, well im trying to decide on a replacement for my rockbox 5g ipod
17:44:18Martynwebguest43 : Still a topic for the community channel...
17:44:34BigBambiwebguest43: That still isn't Rockbox related
17:44:42webguest43what channel is that?

17:48:46advcomp2019Martyn, so it is mainly the microsdhc cards then?

18:04:52LloreanThere's really no reason it should work identical to "select" and having it work differently means more flexibility in general.

18:09:23Lloreangevaerts: I think A) for this release, B) for next release (re: your email) with an addendum to B that there be a menu item somewhere for "Enter USB mode" to re-enable without replugging the cable.
18:09:45Lloreankugel: Insert Last should update it. I think that's a bug too, then.
18:10:25Lloreankugel: You *should* be able to "Insert Last, Insert, Insert, Insert" to get a chain of files at the end of the playlist.
18:10:47Martynhttp://pastebin.com/m46ea9f1d
18:11:32kugelLlorean: probably, I'm not sure though if this also means that starting playback by pressing select will get the insert position at the end too, then

18:12:29kugelhm, right
18:12:36Lloreankugel: In my mind, you should always do a "Next" or "Last" first to explicitly place the location, then the non-explicit one repeatedly.
18:12:47gevaertsLlorean: the problem with (a) is that it really can make any "special" use (i.e. not mount/copy files/unmount) awkward. Is not going to standard mode automatically really that bad?

18:19:09Martyngevaverts : Once I reboot the sansa, I will try copying a file from within rockbox
18:19:26MartynJust copy something internal->internal, or internal->microsd?
18:19:46Martyn(the sansa locked up hard again, giving it the two-fingered reboot)
18:20:21Lloreangevaerts: Maybe just allow a press of the "Select" button on the USB screen to disconnect independently of what's going on. Basically, it's the same as unplugging the cable anyway, which a user can also do to unsafely remove, and it allows a solution for all targets without dealing with the cable
18:20:37gevaertsMartyn: all directions would be useful I think. Maybe start with internal->microsd
18:20:38LloreanSo if "Safely Remove" leaves you with a USB logo, you can just tap select
18:21:10Martyngevaerts : Performing an internal copy from internal to microsd seems to have worked
18:21:22Martyngevaverts : I'll copy a whole directory to be sure
18:21:45gevaertsLlorean: I'd still only allow it when the device isn't locked by the OS. Tapping select is a lot easier to do by accident than unplugging a cable

18:25:31gevaertsMartyn: ok. Does USB work to the internal flash?
18:25:34Martynno
18:26:17Lloreangevaerts: Sounds good. Though if we're at the point where there's a disconnect button, and detection of "medium safe to remove" or whatever, you might as well have the (B) case at that point.
18:26:22gevaertsMartyn: can you post a bug report with all details you can think of?
18:26:43gevaertsLlorean: true, but that requires UI work :)
18:26:45MartynAttempting to move or copy files to the internal or microSD card (at least in windows and OS X) seems to cause the device to be connected and disconnected from the USB bus. I wish I knew how to capture the equivalent of the dmesg log in Windows
18:26:52Martyngevaerts : Will do.
18:27:38Lloreangevaerts: You could skip the UI work and just have the button functionality in. Detect "medium safe" and allow "select" to disconnect, then let someone add in the UI bits later if someone felt like it, otherwise we just leave it as "nothing changed" for now.

18:36:05kugelI think they all should update (except insert shuffled, maybe?), that would give well defined behavior and useful interaction
18:37:28LloreanAgreed.
18:37:40LloreanInsert shuffled shouldn't, because having a random position doesn't really do any good.

18:38:42LloreanLook at it, and if it's down...
18:39:05gevaertsLlorean: (a) isn't workable. Linux locks the device to read the partition table, then unlocks it, then something mounts the device. With (a) it leaves USB mode halfway that sequence

18:49:03rasherGreat news
18:49:36kugelamiconn: I mean, for example, lcd_update_viewport() would handle the clipping, then pass the clipped x/y/width/height to lcd_update_rect. This would get rid of dozens of different clippings and duplicated code, in favor for 1

22:46:51BdN3504but i guess it's select... lemme check
22:47:02Unhelpfulbuilding on CONTEXT_TREE was entirely the wrong place to go, instead it's now a context that chains to ACTION_STD and adds the menu/quit/cancel buttons, used by tracklist, and another that adds left/right scroll, and could potentially define inputs for other actions if something needs remapping due to being covered by left/right scroll
22:47:19gevaertsBdN3504: I'm confused. That page seems entirely correct...
22:48:07amiconnUnhelpful: The chunky drawing optimisation is something I wanted to do for ages. PF finally pushed me to do it
22:48:28amiconnThe coding didn't even take very long, as I had the ideas already worked out in my head
22:48:45Unhelpfulalways good to have written the code before you write it :)
22:49:36amiconnI have another idea which I had to back out for now, as it would probably not be wise to push it just before the freeze: the ability for a viewport to override the backdrop with a plain background colour
22:50:41amiconnThat is without removing the backdrop entirely. It will be another drawmode modifer bit. I'm not sure which way round it should operate, but I now tend to think that bit set == override backdrop is better
22:50:43pixelmaUnhelpful: forcing horizontal scrolling in the tracklist? That's something that could get problematic on the Ondio once you could select tracks to play from it (and in this case I rather do without the scrolling than anything else)
22:51:20 Join moos [0] (i=Mustapha@rockbox/staff/moos)

22:58:35gevaertsright section for what?
23:00
23:00:28Unhelpfulpixelma: it's not done yet, but there are two contexts defined in pictureflow in my working branch for this. pf_context_buttons adds a dedicated quit button, and possibly others if PF will need them anywhere, and chains to CONTEXT_STD. pf_context_album_scroll adds the left/right scroll buttons, and chains to pf_context_buttons.
23:00:56amiconnYet another thing is the bitmap drawing unification stuff
23:01:37Unhelpfulit looks like at least Ondio will need new buttons for ok/cancel, and maybe menu, in pf_context_album_scroll... up for select, down for cancel, and that little thingy on the bottom left for menu?
23:02:14linuxstbgevaerts: Reading your manual addition, it comes across as a bit over-technical to me - e.g. "operating system of your computer", could simply be "your computer". Also "host operating" seems incomplete.

23:22:37rasherBagder: Are there any (significant) pauses in the build times listed on the build summary?
23:22:44Bagderamiconn: thanks! ;-)
23:23:11rasherOr do the builds happen basically back-to-back?
23:23:18Bagderrasher: what's not visible there is the transfer times to get zips to the master, and general network latency
23:23:29amiconnOh, and backround uploads, of course

23:23:34linuxstbMaybe we need something like a "SamsungIpods" page to link all the non-supported ipods to...
23:23:35amiconn*background
23:23:39Unhelpfulamiconn: "power" is mapped to quit on many targets right now... by cancel i mean the key to return to albums from a tracklist
23:23:48gevaertsI expect background uploads to make the biggest difference

23:24:03amiconnUnhelpful: I know. Imo one press of Power should return, and another quit
23:24:05Bagderyeah, but bg uploads make error handling a lot harder
23:24:35rasherBagder: Ah, I was hoping that'd be included :\

23:24:58Unhelpfulwell, cancel at the album list *does* quit. i'm just inclined to think that cancel would be best placed near the scroll buttons, and power as a dedicated quit button
23:25:28amiconnIt does right now, but who says it needs to stay that way?
23:26:00amiconnBut then, nothings stops the tracklist from having a different mapping, and then Left should return to the album selector
23:26:50Unhelpfulit likely already does, if it's a standard cancel button
23:27:41Unhelpfulit does... i'll need to do something about masking long-press-right in the album view, since that's triggering select

23:28:48*amiconn still thinks that unchained contexts are better
23:28:50MartynOh well... current build was no better.
23:28:52pixelmasee where chaining core contexts can lead you to ;)
23:28:52MartynCopying files on OSX to the sansa via USB still causes it to lock up
23:31:56gevaertsMartyn: how are you installing? Overwriting .rockbox, or a totally removing it? Also, is this your own build or the official one?
23:32:08Unhelpfuli'm still inclined to think that chaining is not evil in and of itself... i'm pretty well convinced that chaining contexts that are very generally defined, and without any per-target thought as to how they will chain, is bad, though. this already works better than PLA. ;)
23:33:01amiconnChaining isn't evil as such, but you need to be very very careful
23:33:56amiconnEspecially if you don't have devices for testing every possible keymap. The sim doesn't tell you the whole truth (and it can't).
23:34:05Unhelpfulexpecting completely arbitrary contexts to chain neatly is trouble. i'm tweaking these as needed to get them to work correctly

23:35:03Unhelpfulyes, it lacks power button for one of my targets, or at least i don't know what that is, it can't always simulate button hardware quirks properly... but i don't see how one can give unchained contexts more than a best-effort attempt, either, for targets one doesn't have
23:36:30cjambeHello, what is the most modern buyable player with full Rockbox support?
23:37:17Unhelpfuldefine "modern", "buyable" and "full"... seriously, though, the answers to those questions depend on where you're buying, and what you want.
23:39:08cjambeUnhelpful: "buyable" means I want to buy a new player in a retail store. "modern" means a player that was produced within last 2 years. "full" means that every feature of out-of-the-box firmware is present in Rockbox firmware.
23:39:32pixelmaUnhelpful: sure about the best-effort-attempt, but at least it's easier for people with the device to "fix" the keymap without worrying about breaking something else
