00:02:30pixelmaI wonder where diff takes the "\no newline at the end of the file" right before the last phrase...
00:06:44pixelmafrom
00:06:48bluebrotherpixelma: that gets displayed if the file doesn't end with an empty line
00:07:09bluebrothergcc doesn't like files without an empty line at the end. I guess that's the reason for patch complaining about it
00:07:23pixelmabut it does now (it didn't before) and usually it is displayed at the end of the file but this time it's not
00:07:58bluebrotherurgh? Where did that happen?

00:57:11Nico_Pjust got the e-mail
00:57:40JdGordonrighto, good thing you mentioned that comment... looks outdated so i removed it
00:58:16Nico_Pthere was another comment I wanted to make but right now I forget what it was
00:58:28Nico_Pmaybe it'll come back as I look at the new patch
01:00
01:02:14JdGordon:)
01:02:30Nico_PJdGordon: oh I remember... it was about audio_next_track(). I don't recall how often it's called but the common case seems to include the bufread() call. what if the id3 data is already there?
01:04:11JdGordonif its already there it gets read into othertrack_id3 and that is returned
01:04:46JdGordonoh, misunderstood you
01:04:56JdGordonyou mean if its already read into othertack_id3?
01:05:35Nico_Pyes, maybe the memcpy that is done by bufread could be spared
01:06:05JdGordonwhat happens if you call bufread mulitple times? is that even safe?
01:06:15Nico_Pit should be

01:06:51Nico_Pyes, it is
01:07:04Nico_Pbut I'm not sure how often audio_next_track is called, so maybe there's no waste here
01:07:39JdGordonaslong as bufread keeps the handle at the start it should be ok... the aim of this patch is to cut down how often audio_next_track() is called anyway
01:08:18JdGordoni dont think its called enough to worry about... checking now
01:08:59JdGordonyeah, hardly ever

01:32:57Nico_PJdGordon: I'm putting a build with your patch on my beast for a train ride tomorrow, I should be able to give it a good test
01:33:48JdGordongreat
01:33:56*kugel wonders when "if (!wps_state.id3 && !(audio_status() & AUDIO_STATUS_PLAY))" can ever get true
01:34:00JdGordonput a svn build on also just in case :)
01:34:16JdGordonkugel: it shouldnt be possible
01:34:26JdGordonwps_state.id3 should always be valid
01:34:35kugelyea, I thought so too
01:34:52JdGordonyeah, at least with my patch its impossible for it to be null
01:35:10JdGordonhwcodec it is possible though
01:35:20kugelmeh
01:35:58Nico_Pwps_state.id3 can be null when the wps first appears
01:36:10Nico_PJdGordon: I'll have other players with svn builds ;)
01:36:17kugelbut " !(audio_status() & AUDIO_STATUS_PLAY)" also means you have to be in the wps (else you couldn't pause or seek), and there's no wps without id3
01:36:23kugelor am I wrong here?
01:36:52JdGordonyeah, that sounds correct
01:37:09Nico_Pit does, yes
01:37:21kugelalso, I've never ever seen the splash which is within that if
01:37:49pixelmais a WPS with ID3 even if it doesn't display anything of it (thinking of test cases)?
01:37:56kugelI've removed that part in my little rework, but now I'm wondering how useless it really is
01:38:26JdGordonpixelma: even the track filename is in the id3 so no... everything fails if its NULL so it should never be possible
01:39:24pixelmaI already had WPS only show hold state (as I said for test cases only but it would be weird if it suddenly fails on those out of nowhere)
01:39:41Nico_PJdGordon: I've made the WPS to be out of sync with the playlist by skipping forward quickly
01:39:47kugelyea, every function that calls it has non-NULL id3 too
01:40:02JdGordonNico_P: svn or with my patch?
01:40:07Nico_Ppatched
01:40:22Nico_Pcurrent and next track both showed next track info

01:42:10JdGordonhow many do you need to skip ahad to see it?
01:42:21Nico_Psomething like 15
01:42:32JdGordonso not excatly a common case? :)
01:42:37Nico_Pno
01:42:48Unhelpfulpixelma: should i deliberately mask the vertical scroll keys in the album list if they're not used for something else?
01:42:58JdGordonpixelma: you've seen what Nico_P saw? or your talking about the blank wps?
01:43:01Nico_Pbut I know the hard corner cases :)
01:44:26Nico_Phmm the ipod video seems to have gone back to being unresponsive after resuming on startup
01:45:04pixelmaJdGordon: what Nico_P saw, the confused next track info. What I see quite often is that something else is displayed after manipulating the already playing list (from WPS > file browser > insert some track), it usually fixes itself on next track change but not always - with SVN
01:45:34 Quit QuickStart (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
01:45:42JdGordonok
01:46:01*JdGordon needs to hook up a harddisk target
01:47:11Nico_Pspeaking of those, the WPS seems to lack updates when the disk is being spun up
01:47:33Nico_Phmm, maybe that's not new to the patch though
01:48:29pixelmaUnhelpful: I was confused a bit about it but also because I thought "up" at least would be used for something else, at least I think it should be masked if one of them is used. Can't think well atm and should *really* get some sleep...
01:48:49JdGordonI dont know why, but yeah I tihnk this patch screws up responsiveness a bit

01:49:11Nico_PI'm sure it can be done without affecting responsiveness
01:50:00JdGordonhmm i seem to have lost next track info!
01:50:03Unhelpfulah, ok. i've pretty much decided to go with up as select for ondio in album list, i'll make sure to mask down there as well. i was going to use long menu for the app menu, and off for quit
01:50:32Unhelpfulhrm, maybe long off, in case somebody is used to the standard off->cancel mapping?
01:51:29pixelmawouldn't matter much too me (in theory) as a short "off" is used in some plugins too
01:51:31Nico_PJdGordon: the WPS should be updated on track skip

01:52:20JdGordoninstead of?

02:00
02:00:22*kugel thinks that should be removed too
02:00:28JdGordonNico_P: depending on the call order... the wps should be updating as soon as the skip track is pressed
02:00:40JdGordonwhich might be useless if its too early or too late
02:04:05JdGordonremoving some wps updating.. checking if it makes it feel any slower/faster
02:05:46JdGordonwell... WPS updates fine on track change if the next track is buffered... otherwise it feels very slow
02:06:15Nico_Pyes, that's the case that matters IMHO
02:06:34JdGordonand worse... keep skipping and the track you stop at wont be the track that starts playing
02:08:02Nico_Pthere is a delay when the disk is spinning up to fetch the metadata for the unbuffered track the user skips to
02:08:43Nico_Pwhen dircache is on, it's possible to still show the filenames
02:09:33JdGordonis this a problem in svn also then?

02:22:37NeffiI'm new to the whole project. I'm running an iPod 5.5 gen video, and I just installed RockBox on it. I'm curious, would FLAC playback be more battery-intensive than MP3 playback? \
02:22:41JdGordonafter this, whats the diff between update() and gui_wps_refresh() ?
02:22:46kugel&gui_wps[i], even
02:23:06JdGordonNeffi: the wiki has some battery benchmarks
02:23:13kugelJdGordon: update is gui_wps_refresh+track change handling
02:23:18JdGordonmp3 playback uses both cpu cores whereas flac doesnt
02:24:00kugelNeffi: flac is faster, but has bigger files, which means that the disk needs to spin more often
02:24:29NeffiSo does it about even out?

06:07:26LloreanSupport for other peoples' software should be taken to them.
06:07:36LloreanWe don't write or maintain WinFF.
06:08:13webguest19i was just wondering if you guys have run into the same problem
06:08:45LloreanIt's not really a question that belongs in here. This channel is for questions actually about Rockbox itself or its development
06:09:07webguest19ok well where does it belong
06:09:34LloreanWell, there's an off-topic channel mentioned in the channel topic.
06:09:43LloreanBut for support with WinFF you really should just go to WinFF's support locations
06:21:58saratogawho should i talk to about file browser questions?

08:42:57linuxstbAlso,if the patch is just for a bootloader, you don't need to include apps/keymaps/keymap-lyre.c
08:43:30casainhohow do I do that line endings? is with just an ENTER key?
08:44:18casainhocan you please write all this on comments on patch tracker? (I didn't know that were so many things to rectify....)
08:44:28linuxstbI don't use Eclipse. In emacs, I would just do a search and replace to replace a "^M" character with nothing.
08:45:02linuxstbThe docs/CONTRIBUTING document describes the coding guidelines.

13:45:15Casainhohello :-) −− regarding the commentaries here: http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/10045 ; what should be the line ending on the code?
13:46:18B4gderunix style
13:46:20LinusNCasainho: LF only, i.e UNIX endings
13:46:23B4gder0x0a
13:47:11Casainhookok, thanks. I am using Eclipse and there is an option to convert it for Windows, Unix ow Macos style.
13:47:44 Part LinusN
13:49:31linuxstbCasainho: The problem with your files are that they are a mixture of the two - i.e. in the same file some have DOS (Windows) line endings, others have Unix. So you or Eclipse has done something wrong.
13:50:39Casainhowell, I may used some code from other sources... −− my problem for now is to have a way for I see how are the lines ending
13:50:53archivatorEclipse also has an option to keep line endings as-is (are :)). If you select Unix though every file you edit and save will have the new style.
13:51:34Casainhoarchivator: do you know if there is a way for I see while editing the file, what are the ending character?
13:51:50Casainholinuxstb: and what you said: "Is any code in your patch (e.g. at91sam9260.h) taken from the Atmel SDK? If so, then you should include a header file from that project, including their copyright and license information." −−> you are correct ;-)
13:52:06archivatorHmm, not sure - try the paragraph symbol - the one that shows all whitespace.
13:54:14Casainhoarchivator: eheh, it works ;-)

13:55:15archivatorThere is a Help menu. you know...
13:55:25B4gderand of course, all other line delimiters than "unix" are stupid :-)
13:55:52*gevaerts disagrees. All common line delimiters are stupid
13:56:48Casainhoarchivator: do you know if there is a way to visual identify the TABs on the line codes?
13:56:50archivatorgevaerts: not so. \n is explicitly a new line. \r is not. \n\r is reasonable but is outdated..
13:56:53gevaertsUsing printer control codes to indicate line endings is a bad idea!
13:57:09B4gderthat's only bad if you consider them printer control codes
13:57:15B4gdera single byte is sensible to use
13:57:28gevaertssure, but they should have chosen a different one
13:57:31B4gderand exactly which doesn't matter so the first one that was picked makes sense
13:57:42archivatorCasainho: That same mode should show tabs as an arrow and spaces as mid-line dots.

13:59:30CasainhoB4gder: about the LCD_DEPTH, does the Rockbox have an LCD driver for the 444?
13:59:53B4gderI spoke about the comment
14:00
14:00:04B4gderreading that code it sounds as if you have 64K colours
14:00:29B4gderI just think it perhaps could be wise to mention how things work in there in a comment
14:00:46 Join midgey [0] (n=tjross@71.238.148.140)
14:01:08B4gderCasainho: since you're the first using a 444 driver you'd be the first to write code for dealing with it internally, if you think that's a good idea
14:01:10CasainhoB4gder: ah, I understand now what you wanted to say ;-)
14:03:08CasainhoB4gder: I am fighting to get help for someone make a prototype for ourself developers, like 10 units for start, and we may change the LCD if possible.
14:05:21B4gderI think you'll get more people interested with a proper 16bit lcd that can show video if desired
14:11:48Casainhoyes, but no developer will build his own hardware
14:12:30CasainhoI think the best option for now is finding a partner for helping us, and selling to us, a few units/prototypes
14:13:10Casainholike this guy is selling his own boards on Ebay: http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZopendous
14:13:23Casainhoand his project page is this one: http://code.google.com/p/avropendous/
14:15:10Casainhoand then we should try to use an better LCD, if possible −− if the partner have technology for soldering the LCD connector, etc
14:15:32Casainhodoes anyone have any idea of this? were we can get help?
14:16:00archivatorI asked this yesterday but I got conflicting answers - what's the best place to add a hook allowing plugins to read PCM data? Also, since the plugin callback would execute in a different thread context, is there a way to avoid mutexes? Further, is a callback the best way to pass data to the plugin (in way similar to how DSP functions work) or should the PCM side keep a separate plugin buffer and only send it when asked for it?
14:16:41LambdaCalculus37archivator: What are you planning on writing as a plugin, if you don't mind my asking?
14:16:49archivatorCasainho: who's doing your current PCBs ?

14:21:12archivatorCasainho: technically, you *could* etch the boards yourself with a laser printer and some cheap chemicals but the board would be quite large - no way to do multiple layers either. :) You're in Portugal, right? And there isn't a single shop that does PCBs? That's kinda hard to imagine - here in Bulgaria I know of at least 6 places that do that. And that's just one city =/
14:21:43Casainhohey!! Olimex is from Bulgaria!! :-)

15:16:55wincentHello all, I would like to participate in Summer of Code 2009. I have some trouble to choose the theme of the project. First one idea of mine was to port Rockbox to a Qt application, which would enable it for using both on Qtopia devices (OpenMoko, Sharp Zaurus et cetera) and on desktop devices (with Qt3 or Qt4). But as I read it from the IRC logs, another guy would like to do something very similar (the only difference is the he
15:16:55wincent to collide with other participants, I got another idea. Recently I ported a UI for a sound synthesis environment to Qtopia, which runs both on Sharp Zaurus (Linux PDA) and on x86 Linux. Now the idea is to port both the synthesis environment and the user interface to Rockbox to have something like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kukNp4uwcKc . The question I would like to ask here is, would such a project be interesting for t
15:17:33gevaertswincent: please use shorter lines. They get cut off now

15:17:57webmindwincent, your sentace ends at 'nteresting for t'
15:18:27wincentOk. Again: would such a project be interesting for the developers and users of Rockbox? This is my question.
15:18:28B4gderthat video makes no sense to me - looking at it without sound...

15:21:03webmindwincent, nice, does it run on angstrom aswel?
15:21:09wincentI thought about something like RjDj for iPhone.
15:21:42wincentwebmind: Probably. The sources are in SVN, if you get it to compile on angstrom, then...
15:21:54wincentBut we disgress here a little.
15:21:58webmindyes :)
15:21:59webmindsorry.
15:22:32wincentSo, how much interest is to create musical instrument on Rockbox?
15:23:32wincentOr, maybe the better characterization, an environment where instruments created by users can be played.
15:23:47Zagorit's a little outside what I've had in mind, but that doesn't have to be a bad thing
15:24:11archivatorCan the instrument creation part be done on the device or does it have to be done on a PC?
15:24:32wincentIt has to be done on PC.
15:24:48wincentIt is comparable to RjDj −− both have PureData core.

15:30:52kugelpetur: thanks for testing. The remote won't receive updates, unless the main unit doesn't have HAVE_LCD_ENABLE or HAVE_LCD_SLEEP
15:31:23*petur actually forgot to test and makes a note...
15:31:47webmindmcuelenae, pity
15:31:53kugelI could play save, and only disable the updates for the main unit, whether the remote is readable or not
15:32:30kugelI didn't see sleep/enable for remotes at all, so I guess assuming all are readable is the safer assumption

17:26:38gevaertsah yes, so potentially all archoses (big disks need multivolume there)
17:28:01saratogathe archos with big disks have multiple partitions?
17:31:00gevaertsyes
17:31:46gevaertsThe bridge chip doesn't handle more than 128GB, so if you have a bigger disk you partition it, only use the first partition over USB, and copy to the second partition within rockbox
17:31:59gevaertsThat trick also gets hard with merged volumes...

I envision an app that detects when a rockbox device is connected, syncs it, does maintenance on its database, fetches albumart and that kind of stuff. No music management though, just automating the most repetitive of tasks. Kinda like a Rockbox on the device, rbtray on the PC bundle. Also, I don't think rbutil is a goo

20:13:06FlynDicekugel: re mmu I'm not sure it's running but there is a marked difference in the speed up to the point it fails so I _believe_ it is. I figured I'd just post the patch so maybe someone with a little more experience could tweak it into working...
20:16:41kugelFlynDice: your patch doesn't change the bootloader correct?
20:16:46 Quit Conic ()
20:17:17kugelI'm wondering where it fails, then. "no partition found" is a bootloader message, isn't it?
20:17:52kugelrasher: do you plan to fix portuguese ?
20:18:03gevaertskugel: no
20:18:08rasherkugel: yeah, not exactly an urgent matter
20:18:29gevaertskugel: "Insert USB cable and fix it" is the main firmware
20:18:42kugeloh
20:18:44FlynDiceNo, it fails in main.c I believe where it tries to mount disks. I stayed away from the bootloader and just mimicked the OF in mmu-arm.s
20:18:51kugelI've never had this, so I don't know
20:18:53gevaertsIn this case of course it means that you should fix USB first ;P

20:26:42amiconncasainho: RGB444 isn't difficult, as that would still need a 16 bit framebuffer. I.e. simply use lcd-16bit.c for all the drawing stuff, and have your target specific driver take care of some details
20:27:03*amiconn once considered going RGB444 for c200
20:28:19amiconnThe display isn't that great anyway, and it would allow to speed up YUV blitting by ~30% (that's a low-level driver thing). But then it was possible to speed up the low level driver enough to keep RGB565 and still have mpegplayer run smoothly
20:29:00casainhoamiconn: I am really busy with others things now, like a first patch and put audio working. I don't really know what can be better, since this is my first time working with LCD. I also think that later I could try to use DMA for sending the data for the LCD.
20:30:25casainhoamiconn: I am looking for alternatives, for some individual/small company to assembly and produce first 10 units prototypes and on that time, we will change the LCD if we can (we desire it)

20:58:13taylor_To break enryption for devices? I don't know. The point its, rasher asked why someone might need a 64-bit processor and I gave one reason. Now move on.
20:58:52kugeljaykay: is r20356?
20:58:53jaykayits quite confusing when 40 commits are missing...
20:59:08Lloreanjaykay: Then follow the commits by hand

20:59:48jaykayLlorean: that doesnt change the fact that missing commits are confusing
20:59:49kugeljaykay: then lookup what it did, you'll notice that it exists, but not every r is shown on the front page
21:00
21:00:08Lloreanjaykay: Duplicate commits would be just as confusing to people *less* technically knowledgeable.
21:00:19Learjaykay: You can subscribe to commit mails, where you see all commits.
21:00:22kugelyou'll get used to it, and alternative svn log tools/techniques
21:00:25bluebrotherthat ~40 commits were the theme site stuff
21:00:36jaykayLlorean: the commits for the theme site are not duplicates
21:00:41Erantscorche: So I was interested in possibly doing a project for rockbox, it being one of the precious few embedded organisations in GSoC. How much of the hardware on the players is currently supported?
21:00:44Lloreanjaykay: The backported one would be.
21:00:48LloreanNon-theme, I mean
21:00:48jaykaytrue
21:00:52rasherjaykay: they also don't belong on the frontpage.
21:01:07rasherThe frontpage lists commits to rockbox trunk. Nothing confusing about that.
21:01:12Lloreanjaykay: Seriously. The frontpage serves a specific purpose, it's *not* an "all commits" list.
21:01:37scorche|shErant: it depends on the device, but are you thinking about perhaps supporting currently unused hardware on a device?
21:02:22Erantscorche|sh: That being one of my interests. Software/hardware boundary.
21:02:49Erantscorche|sh: Ofcourse, porting SCUMM is awesome too ;)
21:02:50domonokyErant: on "supported" targets nearly all hardware works. or else they wont be supported. But there are many upcoming ports which could need more driver work :-)
21:03:03jaykayof course its your decision what is shown and what not, but i have the opinion that "commits" shouldn't show up as commit anywhere... no need to hide them then
21:03:05peturkugel: what FS was that again?
21:03:24rasherjaykay: They're not hidden.
21:03:26jaykayand backporting a fix is worth mentioning in the commit logs
21:03:27bluebrothercommits shouldn't show up as commits?
21:03:27scorche|shErant: you could look at, say, getting USBOTG support working, or some other USB bits
21:03:28kugelpetur: http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/8523
21:03:31Lloreandomonoky, Erant: Though sometimes hardware is supported only to the degree necessary to get our features working. It could be possible to expand use of it (USB Host type stuff, perhaps better charging options)
21:03:37bluebrotheras what should they show up instead?
21:03:38jaykayrasher: on the main page, yes
21:03:40*bluebrother is confused

21:04:01HorschtWTF!
21:04:03Lloreanjaykay: "Not showing" is not the same as "Hidden". There are multiple parts of SVN, we show commits to the "Main Rockbox" part of SVN on the frontpage.
21:04:06kugeljaykay: the font page commit list is to track actual developement, backporting a commit shown to another branch is not actual developement

21:04:53bluebrotherso a commit now becomes ... nothing?
21:04:54*domonoky thinks working on new targets might be a difficult gsoc project. you never know when you stumble about some "unsolveable" problem. (like chips without datasheet)
21:04:55Erantscorche: Sounds interesting. Not done much with USB, would be a good place to learn.
21:05:10gevaertsErant: I wouldn't recommend things involving too much reverse engineering for GSoC. The risk of failure is *very* high on those
21:05:14jaykaybluebrother: yes
21:05:20LloreanErant: Right now the AMS Sansas are the closest to complete of the interesting ports. I don't know how much more RE is needed. There's also the potential to RE the broadcom chip in the iPod 5G/5.5G. That's very much "supported player with not supported bit"
21:05:27scorche|shdomonoky: indeed...though there are some targets (such as archopen devices, etc) where we know it would be possible, so..
21:05:36*bluebrother doesn't understand what jaykay is intending to accomplish

21:06:48gevaertsErant: I'm not trying to imply you wouldn't be able to do it :). Getting stuck for months is not unheard of though, and in GSoC terms thathttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolutely_(TV_series) means failing
21:06:53gevaertsoops...

21:54:57linuxstbMT: You might want to look at the apps/codecs/libffmpegFLAC directory - that is the FLAC decoder that I extracted from ffmpeg a few years ago, with a Makefile (Makefile.test) used to build it as a standalone test program. main.c is my standalone test proram.
21:54:59MTdomonoky : thanks :)

21:56:56webguest31I think the 3.2 draft release notes have a contradiction: it says at the top that USB has been taken out for the portalplayer devices as it isn't stable enough. It then explains that USB has been enabled on most targets since 3.1
21:57:17rasherwebguest31: clearly I forgot to remove some bits

Although it would be a nice "bonus" if you could offer your conversion to fixed-point back to ffmpeg. Also, check the ffmpeg-devel mailing list archives - I think I remember someone posting some (unfinished) patches to convert cook to fixed point.

22:14:50LloreanWith the default back to ASCII for this release?
22:14:56gevaertsUSB is disabled. I don't know about sorting
22:15:10rasherkugel: Has natsort been disabled?
22:15:18kugelnot by me
22:15:29rasherSo I would guess it's still there.
22:15:55kugelwell, it wasn't my idea, and I'm not entirely convinced of the idea

22:17:05*rasher wasn't involved in the discussion but was under the impression that it had been agreed to disable it for the release
22:17:10bluebrotherwell, the feature isn't stable in terms of how it's supposed to work
22:17:25*BigBambi also thought it was agreed to disable
22:17:36kugelwell, then let's do it
22:18:14rasherBagder: Do we want the date and revision in the version?
22:18:38BagderI don't have a strong opinion either way
22:18:45LloreanI'm voting against it.
22:18:54LloreanThe revision number is next-to-useless anyway since it's a branch.
22:19:04rasherI think it looks nicer without, and it's not like it's terribly important since it's ... yes, a branch
22:19:06kugelis it enough to deactivate the setting in the settings menu? (it could prossibly be activated then using config.cfg), or revert the initial commit entirely?
22:19:18Lloreankugel: Deactivate the setting, and revert the default to ASCII
22:19:20BigBambiIt should just be v3.2 IMO
22:19:21Bagderok, "3.2" it is
22:19:35rasherkugel: It's both enough and better (less change of breaking stuff and people who have already enabled it won't notice)
22:19:53Lloreanrasher: Well, they will. Since the default was "numeric" most people won't have it visible in their config.

22:22:14Lloreanbluebrother: True. I just don't expect most people upgrading from SVN to read them (of course many of those will skip the release version anyway)

Please could someone from the developers look at the code and tell me and help me to improve the code. Thank You. I have problems to upload a comment with the code in the tracker, so I have uploaded it here. http://paste.ubuntuusers.de/3945

22:45:54rasherIt was announced on the -dev list..
22:46:16rasherAnd I don't see why it'd be bad to do it a bit in advance in the 3.2 branch
22:46:29UbuntuxerMy patch is based on all_changes.patch from mud, which find also in this tracker
22:46:34kugelamiconn: so you wait until Bagder already has his finger on the big red button?

22:57:27pixelmarelease too
22:57:35rashertaylor_: "Fully work" is pushing it. It did mostly work though.
22:57:48taylor_And if I do get a sansa I am hoping on porting rockbox to it. Or at least helping, if there is help needed?
22:57:50Bagderpixelma: well, that'd require that someone would work on making it happen...
22:57:54gevaertstaylor_: for the record, I'm still against doing this in regulare builds
22:58:03Lloreantaylor_: These experiments are being done on a well supported sansa.

23:00:08rasherUnless you resort to compressing more
23:01:15pixelmaI don't know festival but if that's the only thing that can be done currently, I'd think it's better than providing a non-working voice file
23:01:26rasherI agree.
23:01:31LloreanMe too
23:01:35pixelmaunless it's not understandable at all
23:01:46rasherpixelma: you basically have to reach into the bowels of festival and write Lisp scripts to configure it
23:01:53rasher(not kidding)
23:02:43JdGordon|Nico_P: right.. where does buffering really fit in? is there any reason it shouldnt be merged with the playback thread once the playlist part of that thread is moved to where it shuold be?
23:02:57amiconnBagder: Committed. When the archos builds including this change are done, I'll need them for the final version of the packages

23:17:20Nico_Pah yes, I saw the second commit too late :)

23:17:39Bagder28 builds remade now, soon they're all done
23:17:57Bagderall bin zips at least
23:18:32amiconnBagder: Lools like it would be a good idea to have all bootloaders built in the build table...
23:18:47Nico_Pso we're keeping USB and natsort for the next release it seems?
23:18:49***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
23:19:00amiconnfmrecorder and recorderv2 *should* be identical apart from the scrambling, but one builds, the other doesn't :(

23:21:33domonokymabe we should make sure the voicefiles work for archos recoder (are small enough) this time :-)
23:21:51casainhohello again :-)
23:22:26casainhoI just commited the Lyre patch again. I would like to know if the license on the "at91sam9260.h" file is ok for Rockbox....
23:22:47pixelmadomonoky: you didn't read logs ;)
23:23:35Bagdercasainho: the license seems BSD'ish and that's fine
23:23:47Bagderpacked with // comments though...
23:24:26casainhoBagder: okok, thanks. I think that file is the only that is with wrong format style... and is big... :-(

23:24:52casainhobut I will start working on it :-)
23:24:57Bagdercasainho: a decent editor has a macro function that fixes it easilt
23:25:01Bagdereasily
23:25:21Bagdersearch for //, replace with /*, go to end of line add */, next
23:25:23JdGordon|vim not being one of them :D
23:25:40Bagderis that really an editor? B)
23:25:49Nico_Pvim can do that perfectly fine
23:26:08domonokyor just a editor which supports search&replace with regexp :-)
23:26:23*amiconn blames jhMikeS
23:27:14bluebrothervim :)
23:27:23domonokya true hacker would ofcourse write a rockbox plugin todo this task :-)
23:28:04casainhoBagder: thanks, I already that that search and replace :-)
23:28:57linuxstbcasainho: Still a few tabs in your patch - boot.lds and crt0.S
23:28:57*Bagder starts the manual builds
23:29:50*gevaerts reminds Bagder of the need to hold the archos manuals (or rebuild them later)
23:30:10Bagderit'll be easier to rebuild them later
23:30:16 Quit petur ("Zzzzz")
23:30:32n1seeh, should we perhaps mention in the release notes that users will have to rebuild their databases(?|, they will no?)
23:30:39amiconngevaerts: why?
23:30:52rashern1s: if so, then yes that's probably a good idea
23:31:05LloreanWhy do they need to?
23:31:16kugelso, we release 3.2 on 23rd of march, in Hawaiian time? ;)
23:31:24gevaertsamiconn: uhm, because I didn't check...
23:31:26*Bagder starts the voice builds too
23:31:46rasherIt's still the 23rd for 90 minutes

23:31:57n1sLlorean: i think the FS #9977 patch caused that, kugel should know though
23:32:01amiconnhumm-hommm :\
23:32:14Lloreann1s: Ah, right
23:32:30*Llorean has many hours of 23rd left.
23:32:58kugeln1s, Llorean: yes, there's a quite increase in ram usage due to this
23:33:15kugelrasher: in gmt, yea
23:33:36rasherWhich is what counts!

23:34:02n1skugel: from the fs task the increase didn't seem very large but it's correct that databases must be rebuilt, right?
23:34:14kugelthat too, yes
23:34:56n1sso where to put that in the release notes, rasher any suggestions?
23:35:42linuxstbn1s: In the "How to upgrade" section?
23:35:44rashern1s: Good question, either What's new or How to upgrade I'd say
23:36:07casainholinuxstb: I couldn't find any TAB on crt0.s −− but I found one boot.lds ;-)

23:56:30taylor_Does anyone know if any of the ipod's cpus are related to the Sansas? (I know they are both ARM)
23:56:44rashertaylor_: Check the wiki.
23:57:18rasherBagder: Do we want a tarball as well? If so, http://rasher.dk/rockbox/rbutil-1.2.tar.bz2
23:57:21rasher600KB!
23:57:38taylor_ok thanks, Basically Im wondering if it would be anywhere close to easy turning the Sansa emu you guys have into an ipod one?
23:57:38Bagderyou mean with the code?
23:57:49rasherYes
23:57:57BagderI guess it can't hurt
23:58:19linuxstbWhat's needed? rbutil/ apps/ and tools/ ?
23:58:24bluebrotherrasher: does it include the parts of rockbox sources that are needed?
23:58:24Bagderrasher: the url doesn't work
23:58:25taylor_Are those responses directed to me?
23:58:29linuxstb(or rather, parts of apps and tools) ?
23:58:36rasherbluebrother: yes
23:58:47Bagdertaylor_: it depends a little on what sansa you speak of
23:58:51rasherlinuxstb: apps/codecs/libspeex and tools/rbspeex and a few other files in tools
23:58:57rasherBagder: hm hang on
