02:26:50 Join Chex_ [0] (n=Stefan@bas1-montreal48-1176341810.dsl.bell.ca)
02:27:53Unhelpfulthe benefits would be exact scaling instead of only 2^N factors, scaling for images more than 8x screen size, and *much* higher limits on loadable filesize - if we use the 1/8 decoder, with the scaler limits as they are, files of approximately 32Kpx in each direction could be loaded (though quite slowly)
02:30:33Unhelpfulthe ability to load absurdly large files is probably not that big a selling point... fractional loading sounds good, unless we *want* the file in-memory.

05:26:37Unhelpfulswishy: if you want to announce how awesome whatever you're listening to is, this is not really the place. rockbox is on-topic here, so support for it, or work on developing for it is fine. other stuff is off topic.
05:27:33dreamlayersI only hear white noise.
05:27:57dreamlayersVolume changes lead to clicks, but that's due to the codec chip.
05:30:49swishyUnhelpful: sorry hadnt noticed humor on subject was offtopic but will note for future
05:30:53soapI'll admit I haven't tried to reproduce it in 6 months or so. I'll try tomorrow.
05:31:09dreamlayersI'm using Creative Labs EP-630 headphones. They're very sensitive. At +6 dB the white noise is so loud I could use the iPod as a white noise machine.
05:32:21tmztrockbox doesn't have that feature, does it?
05:32:26soapI've heard it with my E2Cs, they're in the work truck, let me try with these (unopened) sansa clip stock buds.
05:33:32dreamlayerstmzt: no, Rockbox doesn't have a white noise generator feature. That may be a nice idea for a plugin.
05:34:30tmztnoise machine, et cetera
05:34:40soapnope - nothing with those, not even white noise,
05:35:03firebird619I was trying to enter manufacturing mode on a Sansa c240 in Linux, but a new device doesn't get detected. When I connect it otherwise, I get read-only errors. Is this a sign the player is going bad? I was going to upgrade rockbox to the latest release.
05:35:58tmztcan you paste dmesg (pastebin)?
05:36:15tmztas well as df -h and fdisk -l
05:36:26tmztfor the partition/device
05:36:30firebird619tmzt: sure, just give me a second.
05:38:25dreamlayersAny thoughts on FS #10082 ("Full range volume control for WM8758 (iPod 5G) ")? If I didn't have an in-line volume control, I'd need that patch for these headphones. At low levels line out volume is reduced, but I think that's better than not being able to reduce headphone volume enough.
05:38:57tmzthold on, you get the read only errors when mount normally?
05:39:09tmztnot recovery/manufacture mode
05:39:16firebird619tmzt: yes, normally.
05:39:48tmztdo you have an sd card?

05:49:54tmztis it possible to view filesystem deatils in rockbox settings?

05:52:26tmztwhat's on the filesystem?
05:53:16firebird619tmzt: The only things on the built-in memory is rockbox, and the music that comes with the player.
05:53:46firebird619tmzt: That file not found message is for rockbox.mi4.
05:53:54firebird619I can see that on the screen as it flashes.
05:55:53firebird619tmzt: I can run format from sansa's firmware, would that work. Is that what you meant by the sansa formatting instructions?
05:56:17tmztif that works fine
05:56:39tmztthe instructions I meant are to create a special file on recovery partition
05:56:58tmztI thought you were saying the errors were with that

05:57:44tmztbut use the menu if it works

06:00
06:00:48firebird619tmzt: Sweet, I can transfer files and stuff now. Rockbox still shows that missing rockbox.mi4 error. I can just reinstall rockbox to fix that though, correct?
06:00:58tmztyes
06:01:17firebird619tmzt: And I need to use the manual way because the installer doesn't work with the c240 right now.
06:01:37tmztit seems the bootloader is installed

06:52:34scorchethat =)
06:52:41scorcheit replaces one's hostmask
06:53:07dreamlayersDoes that also cause the Rockbox icon to appear by a person's name in the log?
06:53:39scorchei think that is taken from somewhere else, but i am unsure

06:54:11dreamlayersCan I get a developer cloak?
06:54:23scorchethe cloak is mainly used for channel administration, channels that we may at times restrict to devs only (rarely), identification, etc
06:54:35scorchesure...remind me tomorrow sometime though.....quite busy at the moment
06:54:46dreamlayersok, no problem

09:54:44Llorean*here
09:54:51Arcok
09:54:57Arcbut how long should this take?
09:55:16Arcrough estimate, I mean
09:56:29LloreanIt's not really something Rockbox-specific, you're just formatting a hard disk. I'm sure Google has a lot of information on format times vs disk size and speed. I couldn't even try to estimate myself.
09:56:29Arci dont see a "quick" option for mkfs.msdos
09:56:54ArcI'd just figure that a lot of people here would have gone through this before, perhaps several times
09:57:12ArcI'm following http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IpodConversionToFAT32 - which has a few bugs btw
09:57:19LloreanIt's a wiki page, feel free to fix it.

10:00:22Arclinuxstb: well first and most obvious, "newfs_msdos -F32 -v iPod /dev/rdiskNs2", newfs doesn't exist, and mkfs.msdos requires a -n flag before the volume name

11:26:46LloreanWith Rockbox USB, or the OF USB when it reboots?

11:27:34codesquidI'm using bleeding edge
11:27:56codesquideven installed rockbox into the bootloader to get rid of the ugly sandisk bootlogo
11:28:05LloreanThere have been problems with Ubuntu 9.04 betas, but it seems to be something *they've* changed since 8.10.
11:28:16codesquidit appears I'm not the only one with the issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/355998
11:28:24LloreanWell, we can't fix their code...
11:28:32LloreanWell, we can, but it's outside the scope of this channel rather

11:28:40gevaertscodesquid: can you reproduce that without hal running?
11:29:01codesquidgevaerts, I'll try
11:29:18codesquidmight not be completely Ubuntu's fault
11:29:36codesquidsome changes in it might merely triggere a preexisting problem elsewhere
11:29:56Lloreancodesquid: The solution to that is to find out what changes of *theirs* triggered it, since that would still be a necessary first step.

11:33:13gevaertsok. I've also had reports that this is a sansa only thing, i.e. ipods running rockbox work fine. They have the same hardware...
11:33:30*gevaerts is pretty sure that this is a bug in hal

11:36:44Arci did a fresh install using osx itunes then used the directions successfully to convert it for windows

11:56:14MTlinuxstb : ok I'll just ask now, and we could discuss it later if you want, I'm not in a rush. Producing proper cook frames isn't a mere demuxing of packets. sub_packets (== frames) are reordered according to a really weird formula (already done in ffmpeg).
11:57:24gevaertscodesquid: can you find out which package has 20-libgphoto2.fdi?
11:57:35codesquidalready working on it
11:58:11linuxstbMT: Maybe it would useful for you to write a document (e.g. a page on the Rockbox wiki) describing how Cook files are structured?
11:59:27codesquidhmpf great, apt-file cannot find it
11:59:34rasherdpkg -S 20-libgphoto2.fdi
11:59:45linuxstbDoes the Sansa OF uses the same USB PID for both MTP and UMS modes, or is that an obvious bug?
12:00
12:00:07codesquidrasher, "dpkg: *20-libgphoto2.fdi* not found."
12:00:21gevaertsit's the same Iid, yes
12:00:48rasherProbably hal or hal-info
12:01:00gevaertscodesquid: maybe it gets installed by a postinstall? Try grepping in /var/lib/dpkg/info/*
12:01:33rasherhal-info owns /usr/share/hal/fdi/preprobe/10osvendor/10-ide-drives.fdi here
12:01:48MT linuxstb : For cook_decode_frame to work I have to send it one scrambling unit, which is a (sub_packet_h) multiple of sub_packets, but to be sure the demuxing, and frame reordering are done properly, the demuxer has to produce the same output as ffmpeg -i file.rm -image2 out%d.raw (this command produces the frames that are then sent to the decoder).. What I'm currently doing is that I put...
12:01:50MT...the output of both our demuxer and ffmpeg's command in separate files and diff them against each other. The question here is about a better way to do that ? dince diff isn't really helpful as to how much they differ from each other.
12:03:05 Quit intrados (Connection timed out)
12:03:16MTlinuxstb : sure, I'll write a wiki once I am able to make the demuxer produce the proper frames.
12:03:33MTs/wiki/page
12:03:42linuxstbWhat I did when writing Rockbox's monkeys audio decoder was to add debugging lines to the original source code, and my version, and then did a "diff" on that debugging output. Maybe a similar approach (adding debug lines to ffmpeg to dump data packets) could prove useful.
12:03:46codesquidlinuxstb, just checked, OF uses different IDs for MTP and UMS
12:04:52MTlinuxstb : you mean adding lines to be written to the same file with the packets ?
12:05:11rasherHm, I have that 20-libgphoto2.fdi as well
12:05:54gevaertsit gets created by the libgphoto2-2 postinst script
12:06:00linuxstbMT: I mean not writing the packets out to a binary file, but writing a text file, which can be more easily diff'ed. That text file could contain the packets (printed in text mode).
12:06:28linuxstbMT: e.g. maybe just writing out the first 16 bytes of each packet is enough to see where things go wrong.
12:06:57MTlinuxstb : ah I see.
12:07:35MTWhat if I try writing only one packet ?
12:08:09linuxstbI'm not sure what you mean.
12:09:04rashergevaerts: but really, what they have is perfectly reasonable I think. We just need to get something in there that tells hal to remove the mtp support flag if it's a rockbox-usb device
12:09:40gevaertsrasher: mtp devices enumerate with an mtp interface. If they ignore that, they're broken
12:10:09MTinstead of producing two files with all the frames .. I'd write only one frame to each and then diff? i.e, the first audio frame is the only one written to both files.
12:10:43linuxstbMT: Using "xxd" to convert the files to text (before using diff) may help as well.
12:11:13linuxstbBut I guess there must be binary diff programs out there somewhere as well...
12:12:08MTI'll try xxd then. Thanks :)

12:37:08codesquidno
12:37:25linuxstbSorry, I've caught up now...

12:37:50rasherWhich one does it use in autodetect mode?
12:38:05linuxstbcodesquid: But isn't that true for an unmodified (i.e. not Rockboxed) e200?
12:38:06codesquidwhat do you mean by autodetect?
12:38:40codesquidlinuxstb, OF uses 0x7420 in MTP mode, 0x7421 in UMS/MSC mode
12:39:01rashercodesquid: the sansa OF has an autodetect mode that will be MTP if someone asks, and MSC otherwise
12:39:02linuxstbYes, but I thought MTP also worked in "UMS/MSC" mode?
12:39:13codesquidrasher, mine hasn't
12:39:43codesquidautodetect in newer OF perhaps?
12:39:55rasherNot really sure, maybe it's just as linuxstb says
12:40:07rasherif you speak MTP to it while in MSC mode, it switches to MTP
12:40:11*rasher doesn't know, honestly
12:40:18LloreanThere are some firmware versions that don't have a mode choice
12:40:47linuxstbLlorean: Any news from the USB people about our query?
12:41:08LloreanFor example, on the c200 you had to hold down a button combination to force MSC, otherwise it would try MTP on hosts that recognized MTP, would go into MSC on other ones, and ones that had poor support for MTP would just fail completely because it'd try MTP and never fall back to MSC

12:43:20LloreanI didn't ask for further details. And I explicitly mentioned us changing behaviour (making the MTP-only Gigabeat S a UMS device)
12:43:58Lloreangevaerts: Do PIDs identify unique behaviours, or are their "described" purpose simply to identify unique products?
12:44:17LloreanAs in, would it be legal for one product to have MSC, MTP, and other modes that all used the same PID?
12:45:10linuxstbLlorean: Then it sounds like hosts who assume specific behaviour based solely on PIDs are broken, such as libgphoto2...
12:45:49LloreanSounds like it
12:46:11codesquidpersonally I don't see the point of devices not ever behaving like a generic mass storage device
12:47:37linuxstbcodesquid: So you would ban MTP?
12:47:43Lloreancodesquid: UMS is actually pretty restrictive in its own ways.
12:47:57LloreanIt's just very compatible these days
12:48:08linuxstbWell, compatible when used with a FAT filesystem...
12:48:27LloreanTrue
12:48:35linuxstbMTP allows compatibility when using any filesystem.

12:58:04Arcso I'm pretty lost when looking at patchfiles
12:59:54linuxstbArc: If you're used to compiling things yourself from source code, then building Rockbox is straightforward. It should work fine on OS X or Linux.
13:00
13:00:10Arcbut where is the source? and how to install it?
13:00:29linuxstbSee the "for developers" section in the Rockbox wiki - there is lots of documentation there.
13:01:00linuxstbThe best place to start is getting the source code from SVN - http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/UsingSVN
13:01:17Lloreanamiconn: Buschel seems to have spotted what caused my seeking problem. It was simply an overflow in mpa.c.
13:01:33Arcdo I want trunk or 3.2?

13:28:06Unhelpfulall that's needed for that is to determine the target size, and provide a callback that returns a chunk of RGB888... and also to add resize_on_load and recalc_dimensions to the plugin api.

20:02:23fuzzieArc: the instructions on IpodManualRestore don't work for you?
20:03:16Arcfuzzie: um no? i just typed "make" and compiled the bootloader, I have no idea where the firmware is or how to install it, and none of the wiki pages cover this
20:03:21Arcthey only seem to cover building a new .zip
20:03:31firebird619I am having issues with rockbox 3.2 freezing quite often. Also, when I play songs, it just shows some letters, like "HCTh" and so forth. Also, it isn't showing album art when I have the art in each folder as cover.bmp. Would it be best to reinstall rockbox?
20:03:32linuxstbArc: I thought the patch was for Rockbox itself?
20:03:50Arcits for /firmware/target/arm/ipod/button-1g-3g.c
20:04:02ArcI'm assuming that /firmware means firmware
20:04:18linuxstbYes, so you need to build a normal Rockbox build - choose "N" when you run configure, and then "make", followed by "make zip" to get the required rockbox.zip file
20:04:21fuzziewell, it means the rockbox firmware, which is in rockbox itself
20:04:31linuxstb(do this from a different directory to the one where you built the bootloader)

20:07:48pixelmafirebird619: weird. Did you try checking the memory (internal and/or card) for file system errors?
20:08:15Arclinuxstb: btw what does a "normal" build equal? i don't want all the extraneous apps and games
20:09:13firebird619pixelma: Well, just yesterday I had issues and was here for help and ended up running the format option in the sansa's firmware, then I upgraded to 3.2 and now have these issues.
20:09:16saratogatoo bad you'll get them and like them
20:09:58linuxstbArc: All those "extraneous apps and games" do is take up a couple of MB of disk space. If you don't want to use them, just ignore them...
20:10:11Arcthey also take longer to compile
20:10:41Arcwhat configure option will allow me to just compile the basic ui and codecs?
20:10:47linuxstbNone.
20:11:06Arcis there a fork of rockbox that is just a music player without all the extra cruft?
20:11:26linuxstbSome plugins are needed for core features to work, such as random folder advice, or the "credits" screen.
20:12:23linuxstbArc: No, all "forks" (we call them unofficial builds) add extra cruft on top of what's there, rather than remove things...
20:12:32BigBambiArc: "extra cruft"
20:13:00BigBambiArc: You lose 30 seconds while compiling and a couple of mb of disk space
20:13:00linuxstbArc: But you can edit the apps/plugins/SUBDIRS and apps/plugins/SOURCES files to remove all plugins you don't want, if you wish.
20:13:05Arci don't need africaans support, for example. it's completely useless to me
20:13:13Arcit's already spent 5 minutes compiling languages
20:13:20linuxstbCygwin?
20:13:28firebird619pixelma: Also, I have rockbox on the internal memory, I just have music on the card. Having run format yesterday, I shouldn't have any memory issues, should I?
20:13:32Arcnope im compiling on a g3 mac
20:13:50BigBambiArc: Just delete them if you want
20:14:24Arcit'd be nice to have an advanced configure option that lets you select languages and extras
20:14:30BigBambiArc: Just disable them then
20:14:41 Join petur [50] (n=petur@rockbox/developer/petur)
20:15:02pixelmafirebird619: I guess the "format" option of the Sansa firmware only takes care of the internal memory. The problems you describe could be when accessing the microSD, although I admit to be guessing
20:15:08BigBambiPretty pointless to have that level of configurability
20:15:36BigBambiIt makes the build system overly complicated for no real gain
20:15:36BigBambiIf you never want to build them, disable them as linuxstb said
20:15:42linuxstbArc: A modern computer can compile Rockbox (with all cruft) in a few minutes, so I doubt many people would agree with the complication.
20:15:55BigBambiAlso, use ccache
20:16:25firebird619pixelma: Ok, would it be a good idea to format the microSD card and go from there? How would I check for errors on that? I'm on Linux.
20:19:10firebird619pixelma: I'd use dosfsck on the card to check it, wouldn't I?
20:20:14pixelmasorry, can't help you with these things on Linux. About the letters it shows in the While Playing Screen - are your files properly tagged and named? I'm asking because many WPS have fallbacks to show the filename if the tags are not present, just making sure that's not that
20:20:31GodEaterfirebird619: fsck.vfat
20:20:41firebird619pixelma: Yes, they are all tagged properly.
20:21:13firebird619GodEater: I don't have that command. dosfsck gives: /dev/sdb1: 307 files, 89367/125376 clusters
20:21:57GodEaterfirebird619: apparently dosfsck and fsck.vfat are synonymous - so you're ok
20:22:07firebird619ok, :)
20:22:22archivatorReally weird question - what happens in the playback engine every 3 seconds (approx.)? When using my plugin, playback freezes (almost) every 3 and a bit seconds. Is there something CPU-intensive that happens at regular intervals in the playback engine?
20:22:22GodEaterat least, that's what my man page on the subject says ;)
20:22:59firebird619So, formatting the microSD card, a good idea to see if that fixes things?

21:42:00evilnick_7i.e. any DAP that takes the same dimension battery as the 1/2G iPod - so the H100 series is similarly affected.
21:42:36dreamlayersjaykay: I don't think it is compatible. Some of those pins are used for GPIO on e200.

21:44:20myndz\the batteries i have bought recently were ipod replacments

21:44:28myndz\probably made in china, cheap off ebay
21:44:33myndz\so i'm not at all gonna rule that out
21:45:06myndz\is ballooning the result of poorly manufactured batteries, or is it a direct result of overcharging? should i just try to find one manufactured somewhere reliable?
21:45:07dreamlayersjaykay: If pins aren't used by specific parts of the PP502x chip (like the ATA/IDE host), they can be used as ordinary GPIO. eg. backlight-c200_e200.c uses GPIOG.

23:04:50mcuelenaerekugel: isn't the current method just reading out rockbox-info.txt ?

23:26:01*mcuelenaere doesn't feel like creating lots of builds
23:26:08Unhelpfulmcuelenaere: i don't suppose we could get the setjmp/longjmp in pluginlib? ;)
23:26:21mcuelenaereprobably, but I wasn't sure how to do that without duplicating..
23:27:24Unhelpfulwell, i'd imagine they'd just be *moved* there, rather than copied? or is there some problem with them needing to be linked in a special way?
23:27:36myndz\i think maybe i've just been buying batteries that are too big, after doing more searching/research
23:27:47mcuelenaereUnhelpful: but how are the codecs going to access them then?
23:28:01mcuelenaerewell, one codec..
23:28:05myndz\i had thought i got away with 2300mah before without any problems but it looks like the h340's default battery is a 1700mah one
23:28:10 Quit Keripo ("Leaving.")
23:28:21myndz\this battery still seems to be swelled up rather unreasonably lage, but i ought to be fine i think if i drop the size/capacity of what i purchase
23:29:05Unhelpfuloh! i didn't realize they were *in* the codeclib?
23:29:15mcuelenaereyes they are
23:29:28mcuelenaerethat's why I hackishly added those ../../ lines
23:29:39*mcuelenaere doesn't really want to move them to core
23:30:52 Quit bmbl ("Woah!")
23:31:49Unhelpfulnevermind, i thought (from the task) that they'd been added in the lua plugin itself. you're probably already sharing them between codeclib and pluginlib about as cleanly as possible.
23:33:33Unhelpfuli had thought a bit ago that they might also be useful for porting other apps to RB, but as a substitute for having a real exit() rather than for things that want them for exception handling.
23:33:55mcuelenaereactually, Lua needs an exit() too..

23:34:43 Quit Zarggg ()
23:36:30Unhelpfulmcuelenaere: my idea for that was to setjmp to a global jmp_buf, and treats returns from it as exits. exit() would just be longjmp(exit_buf), with a check first that the exit status isn't 0
23:37:42mcuelenaeredo you think that the setjmp should be done before the plugins gets executed? (so plugins don't need to care to initialize the jmp_buf)
23:37:57evilnick_7myndz\: Again, this is me remembering so may not be 100% true, but I believe that the capacity of the battery _should_ not matter
23:38:05mcuelenaeres/to care to initialize/to care about initializing/
23:38:54evilnick_7The problem is that the higher capacity batteries seemed to be more likely to balloon, due to worse construction
23:39:02myndz\evilnick_7: the capacity of the battery is related to the physical size of the battery

23:39:16myndz\so if i get a physically smaller battery, even if it does swell up it's less likely to break the case/hard drive
23:39:17Unhelpfulmcuelenaere: that means having the setjmp/longjmp in core, if you mean to have the loader set up the exit. i'd think they're better off in pluginlib, and only things that want exit() can include setjmp_exit.h and call its init function.
23:39:18myndz\that's all i meant
23:39:38myndz\i'm not at all surprised that the cheap $6 2300mah ipod replacement batteries suck
23:39:42myndz\i just didn't expect them to break things
23:39:52evilnick_7myndz\: If we're still talking about the h300 batteries then the difference in physical size of the battery 1700MaH or 2100MaH should not be any different
23:40:04mcuelenaereUnhelpful: yeah, that's probably better (I thought plugins had some kind of pre-init code besides the one in plugin.c)
23:40:27myndz\22/23 is already a bit of a squeeze in an h340 case so it doesn't have to expand much
23:40:36myndz\really? wow
23:40:38evilnick_7Sorry "the phyical size of the battery should not be any different"
23:40:38Unhelpfulnope, codecs have a crt that's linked into every codec, plugins do not, and have all of their init done in the loader.
23:40:47myndz\i wish i could know who manufactured the second one i bought then
23:40:51myndz\i remember it being significantly smaller
23:40:59myndz\thought it was due to advances in technology
23:41:04myndz\but then the next time i got big ons again
23:41:15gevaertsmyndz\: if a battery is swelling, I wouldn't use it...
23:41:29evilnick_7myndz\: I've used 2 separate 2100MaH batteries, one ballooned after maybe 30 mins, the other lasted many months.
23:41:41myndz\gevaerts: obviously
23:41:42evilnick_7And yes, if it starts to balloon then get it out of there asap!
23:41:58myndz\it's hard to tell if it's ballooning or not until it's too late though
23:42:07myndz\this one i've had for some months, but my first ones didn't do it at all
23:42:14myndz\so i would rather just buy something that won't cause a problem
23:42:20myndz\question is how :\
23:42:36myndz\evilnick tells me that getting a smaller capacity battery may not help, now i have no idea what to do heh!
23:42:52BigBambiI've had a 2100 mAh battery in my h140 for 2 or more years with no issues, so it does seem to be luck
23:43:44evilnick_7Stupid as it sounds, if you start experiencing any weird issues like keypresses not being picked up, then it's worth opening up your iRiver to check.
23:43:48myndz\yeah, i've had the same.. just not recently :(
23:44:03myndz\evilnick_7: the last two times (this has happened twice), the first indicator was an ATA error -1
23:44:16myndz\and/or failure to load the next track
23:44:28evilnick_7Yep, that too! Anything that you don't normally see.
23:44:30myndz\now that i think of it, that could be an early warning... i've just chalked that up some times in the past to random chance
23:44:43myndz\my poor case, i already lost one screw :(
23:44:57Lloreanamiconn: I don't have access to my one hwcodec player right now.
23:45:05*evilnick_7 found out why his beast was freezing every so often
23:45:56Lloreanamiconn: In my test I simply moved the *100 in the numerator to a /100 in the denominator, I'm not really sure I get why it needs to be done with so much more math.
23:46:01myndz\i think i'm gonna pay the extra $14 for one of these batteries on ebay that's labeled for h340s
23:46:02evilnick_7I hadn't put the spongy bits on the hdd so after enough shaking around, the hdd would become loose on the ZIF connector!
23:46:08myndz\maybe at least that will help me avoid the ipod market
23:46:18myndz\evilnick_7: woops!

23:47:27evilnick_7myndz\: Again, it does seem to be the luck of the draw with those batteries. I decided to buy a few at a time so that I'd have a replacement at hand.
23:47:33mcuelenaereUnhelpful: something like http://pastebin.com/d54337005 ?
23:47:44amiconnLlorean: Yeah, but also far longer than anything ripped from CD, even with a single-file rip

23:48:41myndz\that's not a bad idea really, especially at $6 or whatever you can get em for now
23:48:45myndz\i think i'll buy one of each
23:49:10Unhelpfulmcuelenaere: something like that, but what exactly happens if you pass 0 to longjmp? or are we assuming that the exit() is a convenience to avoid really extensive code changes, but that exit status values will need to be tweaked?

23:52:38myndz\my player has been around the block a few times ;)
23:52:44amiconnHmm. A 128kbps mp3 can be up to >37 hours (with the current rockbox limit of 2GB/file; twice as much with the real FAT32 file size limit)
23:52:48myndz\i guess this'll make 6 batteries and 3 hard drives
23:52:53Unhelpfulmcuelenaere: PLUGIN_STATUS_OK == 0... i'd suggest that exit() only be called with one of the defined plugin exit status values, and that exit() add one to the passed value (to make sure it's non-zero), and that the setjmp return value have a matching -1 and be used as the plugin status.
23:53:31myndz\does rockbox support any file systems other than fat32?
23:53:33evilnick_7myndz\: It's a very good player, I reckon the 60GB drive would be an awful lot less than that even new by now.
23:53:35diskspinH320, Compact Flash mod, do the disk spin down settings have any influence with a CF card ?
23:53:39evilnick_7myndz\: No, that's a no-do
23:53:43myndz\ah well
23:53:59amiconnThat also means an 8kbps file can be up to 596 (or 1193) hours. 596 hours are just possible with the *100 -> /100 move. 1193 hours would still overflow

23:55:00myndz\but there's stil some in the $200 range
23:55:17myndz\wonder what 80s are going for now
23:55:36mcuelenaereUnhelpful: that would require modifying most of the apps that need exit(). Wouldn't it be better to pass exit(0) as a PLUGIN_STATUS_OK and every other value as PLUGIN_ERROR? (so it doesn't require modifying existing apps + it has an option to output when an error occurred)
23:55:43domonokyamiconn: how big would such a 8kbits 1k hour long file be ? probably more then is possible on fat32
23:55:53BigBambiobo: No problem. You raring to go now? :)
23:56:04diskspinso I guess the disk spin down settings have zero infleunce in a CF modded player ?
23:56:11amiconn8000/8*1000*3600
23:56:15Lloreanamiconn: I *think* 596 hours is probably a reasonable upper bound. I'd be surprised if a reading of anything much shorter than an encyclopedia would reach that length.
