#rockbox log for 2009-05-08

00:00:30JdGordon|I'm not sure this will be such an issue though.... I tihnk when this is all finished there will be a wps-like screen constantly being redrawn, and inside that there will be a rectangle for the ui which will be drawn when needed
00:00:35 Part pyro_maniac
00:00:49JdGordon|it shoudlnt ever be more than that
00:01:04kugelconstantly redrawn sounds horrid :/
00:01:29JdGordon|replace todays statusbar with a wps and you have what im takling about
00:08:59 Quit bertrik ("Leaving")
00:17:00amiconnThe statusbar doesn't cause the problem because its width is equal to the screen width and its height is a multiple of 8
00:17:30amiconnChange the latter and the update problem will start appearing on mono and vertically-packed greyscale targets
00:18:49JdGordon|we are talking about what? 1px error lines?
00:19:27JdGordon|or up to 8 even?
00:19:47JdGordon|really not a big deal, the work around is to make it clear to themeres that this is posible and to be aware of the limitations
00:21:55amiconnUp to 7 pixels
00:22:32amiconnThat is, up to 8 in total at horizontal boundaries; up to 7 pixels into either viewport
00:23:13amiconnSame applies to vertical boundaries on horizontally-packed greyscale targets (8 pixels) and to a lesser degree to some colour targets (2 pixels)

00:35:27dfktare there any plans of implementing FFWD/REW with audio in rockbox?
00:35:49BigBambinobody is working on it AFAIK
00:36:35JdGordon|its pretty much a nodo isnt it?
00:36:41dfkti was looking around but didn't find any mentioning of it at all
00:36:46dfktnodo?
00:37:20BigBambiJdGordon|: Not that I'm aware of
00:37:24scorche|shsomething that wont be done/acceptable out of principle
00:37:38BigBambiI was under the impression that it is a pretty massive job
00:37:47BigBambiAnd nobody had attempted it
00:37:57BigBambiBut I've not seen it as a NODO anywhere
00:37:59dfktmassive job i understand, principle i don't understand :)
00:39:55JdGordon|the argument against it is that if you've already heard the part you wanted its too late...
00:40:08JdGordon|so there is no gain over just dionging it blindly
00:40:26BigBambiJdGordon|: But that doesn't make it a NODO
00:40:40JdGordon|unless you do it like my pvr thingy which rewinds 1 or 2 sec before playing again
00:40:41dfkti was just FFWDing a 90 minute mixtape, and it would really come in handy to hear when the next track starts
00:41:18scorche|shi wouldnt say it is a NODO either...it could be handy
00:41:20 Quit midijunkie ("?(???~•~)?")
00:41:47JdGordon|nodo in the sense that noone had any intention of adding it... not that it would be rejected if someone did put in the effort
00:41:53saratogatheres a thread about it in the forums
00:42:09saratogai don't think its a NODO but i think it would be quite difficult on most players given the CPU constraints
00:42:16***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
00:42:36JdGordon|the beast could do it!
00:42:38saratogaare there any commercial players that implement it?

00:42:46dfktall cowons
00:42:53dfktincluding the ancient x5
00:43:02saratogaeven the X5 or just the newer ones?
00:43:10dfktx5, d2, s9, etc
00:43:10saratogathe new ones have quite fast CPUs
00:43:17dfktbut yes, x5 too
00:43:19scorche|shthe archos did it too, but..
00:43:24scorche|sharchoses
00:43:29JdGordon|well hang on... isnt there a patch to speed up playback? that could be used to do it.. assuming it can speed it up enough
00:44:00saratogado they speed it up or just play short clips as you go
00:44:04exposure101im not seeing much info about the Gen 6 ipod, will it even install?
00:44:18scorche|shthe latter, i would assume
00:44:21dfktsaratoga, sounds the same as cd player FFWD
00:44:29dfktchopped up bits
00:44:36dfktbut no speeding up
00:44:40saratogathat makes sense
00:44:47saratogacan they do it for Vorbis as well as MP3?
00:44:51dfktyes
00:44:53exposure101hows everyone?
00:45:02saratogahmm so thats pretty good then
00:45:12dfktflac too, iirc
00:45:20saratogathey either have a lot of really fast codecs or maybe its not as slow as i'd think
00:45:43scorche|shexposure101: no...ports dont quite work like that...each one requires a separate port for all of the hardware and any method to be able to run code
00:46:04saratogai guess it could be faked by issuing a lot of seek requests in sucession
00:46:31scorche|shonly thing i can find in the tracker about it: http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/1403
00:46:37dfktwell, any hint on where you are while FFWDing is helpful
00:46:41saratogamost of the codecs return less then 100ms worth of audio at a time
00:46:48exposure101thx scorche|sh
00:47:00saratogaso i guess request 200ms, then skip ahead a few seconds and so on
00:47:00BigBambisaratoga: the H100 OF did it too
00:47:09saratogaany PP targets?

02:30:25kugelJdGordon: I think it makes sense to remove the splash within splashf() since it has control over the viewport, and since a timeout was given
02:30:38 Quit ParadoxG (Client Quit)
02:33:58kugelWhy should getting rid of the dead parts created by splash() the job of the caller if it can be done within splash() too
02:34:47kugelit's just that it cannot be done with ticks == 0. We could of course think about removing that possibility altogether
02:35:40Unhelpfulticks == 0 can actually be useful, though - for example, for peppering code that hangs with splashf's ;)

02:48:36froggymandidnt add any patches to it, just got the pre-compiled build
02:48:55kugelJdGordon: yea. But still. The caller is responsible for refilling the parts of *his* viewport(s) overwritten by the splash, but not for cleaning up the display outside of its viewports
02:49:56kugelalso, that would solve issues with multiple splashes
02:52:05kugelin both cases splash behaves differently, why shouldn't be dealt with its impact differently (but properly) too?

09:35:51*GodEater enjoys Bagder's screencast on how to build rockbox
09:42:29Bagderthe missing compiler in the PATH was a bonus! ;-)
09:43:43GodEateryes
09:43:57GodEaterI think perhaps another screen cast showing how easy it is to build the cross compilers would be good
09:43:58LloreanVideos with common things that can go wrong might not be bad in general. Help reduce the general "I don't understand this error" panic
09:44:22Bagderyeah, building cross-compilers and setup PATH etc is a good idea
09:44:26GodEaterthe commentary on the error could have been better "the path is there but it's not in the path"
09:44:46GodEaterwouldn't make a whole lot of sense if you didn't already know what you were talking about :)
09:44:46linuxstbOgg Tremor?
09:44:47Bagderindeed, I thought that as well when I heard myself afterwards...
09:44:58GodEaterbut on the whole - I liked it :)
09:45:10Bagderoh
09:45:11GodEaterTheora presumably ;)
09:45:14Bagderright
09:45:21GodEatertoo many "T" words
09:45:39LloreanI like the idea of official videos, especially ones about processes that won't change often so we don't need to worry so much about updating
09:46:33*GodEater wonders who has the best speaking voice on the RB staff
09:46:45Bagderif you come up with specific ideas I could try doing a few
09:47:02Bagdernot that I have the best voice but...
09:47:18GodEateryou're perfectly understandable
09:47:59*GodEater also enjoyed the quick peak he got at the forums "admin" button that he never sees :)
09:48:26Bagderhehe, yeah I was a little worried in general what things that could possible get revealed in all this
09:48:38Bagderlike the quick view of some urls in my browser history
09:48:51GodEaterwell at least you didn't dive into the "Forums admin" bit and open up the "users we hate" thread :)
09:49:01GodEateryouporn / redtube ? :)
09:49:07BagderI'll add that as a separate idea ;-)
09:49:26Bagder"video: this is how we deal with annoying users"
09:49:58GodEaterhahaha
09:50:40GodEaterI wonder what other videos we should do ?
09:50:50GodEater"Idiot's guide to RBUtil" ?
09:51:08LloreanA guide to rbutil might actually be pretty useful
09:51:22Bagderindeed
09:51:36BagderI don't think I'm the most suitable person for that though
09:51:41LloreanSpecifically, people seem to like to change things *after* autodetect detects them. Somehow it's not clear that once you've clicked it, unless it says it can't find something it's done

09:53:13GodEaterwhy ?

09:54:17GodEateryes....
09:55:04cool_walking_Isn't the purpose of RbUtil to be the "easy" method? If you're giving them instructions why can't they just do the manual method?
09:55:24Bagderif the easy fails, give them the harder way?
09:56:17cool_walking_What's the difference between instructions saying "click here" and instructions saying "type this here"?
09:56:35Bagderpeople are scared of command lines and text mode

11:58:32kugelUnhelpful: wouldn't it be faster to read/write an int at a time, not a char (in getc/putc)?
11:59:52Unhelpfulkugel: would it? a *whole* lot of the data is bit- or byte-oriented.
12:00
12:01:04kugelI'm not sure, but using the native data type is generally faster
12:01:29kugelif you're reading many chars in a loop, reading ints will most likely be faster
12:01:32Unhelpful"native" being 32-bit? there are pretty much none of those.
12:01:47Unhelpfulfaster, even if i want chars?
12:02:49kugelwhy should you want chars?
12:03:30kugelour strcmp and strcpy read/write 32bit at a time too in their fast versions
12:03:40Unhelpfulbecause of the amount of the data that *is* chars.
12:04:34Unhelpfulthe huffman tables and quantization tables are big blocks of characters. markers are all headed by a 0xff followed by a 1-byte marker ID.
12:04:41kugelI haven't looked at the jpeg code much, but - if possible - reading native should be preferred
12:05:34Unhelpfuland what i'm trying to say is that most of the header is a packed array of characters. the rest of the image is a packed stream of bits.
12:06:22Unhelpfulpretty much the only 16-bit values are the marker size - on markers that have one. and i'm pretty sure there's nothing that's stored as a 32-bit value.
12:06:37kugelthe header is not the issue I'd think, that's neglible compared to the image data anyway, isn't it?
12:06:55kugelit doesn't have to be stored as 32bit value
12:09:08 Nick fxb is now known as fxb__ (n=felixbru@h1252615.stratoserver.net)
12:09:49kugelour fast strcmp reads longs at a time too
12:10:49 Join einhirn [0] (n=Miranda@bsod.rz.tu-clausthal.de)
12:11:45Unhelpfulkugel: during the image decode, the data goes into a bit buffer, which may have bits in it already. if we really want to be able to read a long at a time, we'll need the bitbuffer to be 64 bits wide, so that we can 32 + whatever's in there. you really should look at what the jpeg code needs to do, i don't think there's a very good case for aligned reads of larger sizes.
12:13:59kugelI just asked, you probably know it better
12:14:20kugelI'm just saying that messing with chars is generally slower than using the native format
12:15:11Unhelpfuli understand, and the decoder uses larger types after the bitstream data has been unpacked and decoded -
12:15:55kugelafter that only scaling comes?
12:16:48Unhelpfulno, not only scaling. it's unpack -> dequantize -> IDCT -> scale
12:17:00kugelusing a 64bit buffer might still be faster
12:17:09Unhelpfulnext step is supporting direct-to-native output without using the scaler.
12:17:24kugeloh, I though "unpack -> dequantize -> IDCT" is part of decoding
12:18:49Unhelpfulbasically, the image data is a series of variable-length Huffman codes. each Huffman code encodes the length of the data that follows it, and in the case of the AC coefficients, the length of the run of zeroes between coefficients.
12:22:22Unhelpfulso, the Huffman codes are themselves bitstrings of arbitrary length. then you get an encoded length from the Huffman code, and you read that many bits, and sign-extend. none of these odd-length-of-bits items are byte-aligned, because that would make using them in the first place rather pointless.
12:25:33Unhelpfulalso, we need to be able to detect byte-aligned patterns within this stream of data. a byte-aligned 0xFF indicates a marker. a literal run of 8 1 bits, if it happens to be byte-aligned, has to be stored as FF 00. and then, if restart markers are in use, those are FF <ID>

12:27:24markunI use git, but haven't been much of a dev lately
12:28:27mt-markun : not exactly .. I mean what benefit would they gain if I use git rather than svn ? (for me, branching and merging .. enough said!)
12:29:17kugelUnhelpful: well, you could mask with some &-combo for that I'd think
12:30:18markunmt-: well, you can make them happy by committing often locally and then produce many diffs to be committed in svn
12:30:22Unhelpfuli seem to recall there was a bit-twiddling hack for detecting the presence of a 0 byte in larger value
12:31:17kugelthat's what done in strcmp
12:31:32 Nick mt- is now known as mt (n=MTee@41.233.143.197)
12:32:45mtmarkun : umm, still can't really see the difference between that and producing a diff using svn ?
12:33:05Unhelpfulyou're welcome to take a shot at it. i rather think that with all the table lookups and multiplications being done that it will be hard to speed things up.
12:33:20markunmt: I guess not, as long as you make the diffs after every major change
12:34:19Unhelpfuli hope that the scaler-free output will give a boost, since that's getting rid of a few extra multiplies per pixel... of course, if we want output at other than 1:8, 1:4, 1:2, or 1:1, that's no help.
12:35:19markunmt: also, with git I think it will be easier to try something out and revert to your last commit in case it's not the right way
12:36:06markunbut just use svn if that works well enough :) The change to git will also cost you some time.
12:36:32Unhelpfuli assume that after a has-zero test our strcmp just has to examine each byte to find the zero?

12:38:15mtsvn is fine for me till now, I have yet to encounter a situation where it failed me, other than I have multiple working dirs for different 'features' .. that's why the most tempting part I see in using git is branching
12:39:02Unhelpfulthe real pain there might be if the *last* byte in is FF, because then i need to see the next byte, but i've got at least 32 bits in the bitbuffer :/
12:41:19Unhelpfulalso, i rather fear trying to use a 64-bit buffer... how many targets have a 64-bit wide shift instruction? if they don't have one, manipulating the buffer reduces to several 32-bit wide shifts and masks and ORs that will probably be as bad as using getc.

17:16:08MarcGuay... and I hate to ask a simple C question but to cast that int to a string so i can splash it?
17:16:16domonokyalso, your current code will probably break, if one of those 5 raw files are smaller then your buffer.

17:17:00MarcGuaywould it make more sense to say rb->read(raw_file, wavbuf5, sizeof(raw_file));?
17:17:11domonokyno, for splash you want a string. so use snprintf() to convert into a seperate buffer, and display it.

17:23:46domonokyfor the read: use "filesize = read(raw_file,wavbufx,sizeof(wavbufx));", and check filesize afterwards for -1 (error) and otherwise store the size of playback.
17:23:49saratogaMT: you should add a rockbox styled makefile (see one of the other codecs) and then include that in apps/codecs/codecs.make so that your library gets built
17:24:15saratogainitially a good goal might be to simply get decoding working, then work on seperating all of the rm components cleanly from cook
17:24:29saratogathough i think you have the right idea using seperate librm and libcook folders from the start :)

17:31:05domonokyMarcGuay: strange. but maybe you get problems with the available plugin space. your buffers are pretty big.
17:32:33mtsaratoga : moment of enlightment :) (they're separate now btw)
17:33:13MarcGuaydomonoky: I was getting errors before because of that but found around where I have them works fine...
17:34:38saratogaMT: eventually i wan to do away with the individual test programs for ape, cook, etc and instead replace them with a general mechanism that wraps the ci->read_filebuf, ci->advance_buffer, etc so that we can compile the exact rockbox parser outside of rockbox
17:35:01saratogathis way people could more easily port them to other programs, and of course we'd have a much easier time testing

17:40:53mtsaratoga : You mean modifying the test programs to use the same data structures that the codec api uses , so the parser would compile with no modifications for both rb and the test program ?
17:41:58domonokyMarcGuay: but if you get strange problems, its likely that you already hit the memory barrier. For bigger memory needs you should use the audiobuffer.
17:42:10saratogaMT: we'd get rid of the test programs entirely, and just have an option in the make file that compiles the rockbox parsers outside of rockbox

17:51:06linuxstbsaratoga: I'm not convinced by that - there's advantages to having test programs for codecs that are not linked to Rockbox. The APE test program for example includes CRC checking of the decoded frames, which isn't done in Rockbox. SImilarly, the FLAC test program could do the same thing (verify the whole-file MD5 checksum), although it doesn't. So even if you add a generic test framework, I wouldn't want to lose the specific ones that
17:51:06linuxstbalready exist.
17:51:50saratogalinuxstb: t hose could be added to the rockbox decoders and enabled for test via the preprocessor pretty easily i think

17:57:50mtlinuxstb : Didn't write that for the patches :( , I thought it was only needed for the final one.
17:58:25mtbtw, cook.c would have different revisions across patches 1 and 2.
17:58:39linuxstbHmm, why?
17:59:08linuxstbDoes that mean parts of the code are from a newer ffmpeg than cook.c ?
18:00
18:01:45mtcurrently no .. because all of the files (in patch 3) are either parser-related, or cook-related - which were produced by the fixed point patch - except for bitstream.[c/h] and bswap.h .. those are of a newer revision.

18:26:34linuxstbmt: Starting with clean foundations for later changes.
18:27:12linuxstbSo later changes only add new features, instead of cleaning up old code.
18:27:23mtWhy not clean the warnings for patch 3 instead ?

18:28:29linuxstbI just don't like committing code which isn't clean - warnings are bad.
18:29:04linuxstbBut for parts of the patch which are ffmpeg code, we can live with them for now. It's mainly rm2wav.[ch] which should be clean on the first commit.
18:30:14mtAre patches 1 and 2 meant to be committed ?
18:30:16linuxstbIt's also a general principle in Rockbox to not commit code that has warnings (although your code is special, as it's not being built yet).

18:53:38linuxstbsaratoga: I think that's up to ffmpeg developers - their code is very different to Rockbox's, and changes we make may not be ones they want. So it will probably not be easy to produce a patch they would accept...

19:31:18linuxstbIt's good practice to always check the return values of read/write for errors.
19:32:03linuxstbBut you could simply assign it to a variable (i.e. res = read(...)) and then not do anything with it for now. That should silence the warning.
19:33:50mtnow I remember why main() is in cook.c , it was before I moved COOKContext and the needed function prototypes to an external cook.h

21:29:33pixelmaBigBambi: is this forcing a new line (your changes to recording.tex)? Also, if the last line that shows up as changed in the coloured diff in this file is describing the recording screen, I think it's not even true anymore
21:29:43amiconnTo be precise, loadthe codec from within the plugin

22:02:34evilnickBest is quite subjective. What qualities are you looking for in particular?
22:02:55amblinstability and battery life
22:03:09BigBambie200 or c200 or nano
22:03:19amblinnano really?
22:03:24BigBambimake install
22:03:26BigBambidammit
22:03:29amblinhah
22:03:34saratogathe e200s are quite mature these days
22:03:49amblinim nearly 100% ogg, if that matters I know battery life wasn't so good on ipods
22:03:52BigBambiamblin: It isn't bad from what I hear, but I don't have any experience of it myself
22:04:31evilnickIf you're after battery life then you might want to choose a less cpu-intensive codec
22:04:34BigBambiamblin: I'd have a e200 over a c200 (having got both), but the e200 can have a bit of electrical noise that you may or not hear depending on earphones
22:04:52mtlinuxstb : just looked into cook.c r18079 - It's exactly the same modifications I made except that it uses random_seed() which we decided not to use (due to its crazy way of getting a random seed) and merbanan told me I could just initialize this value to any number, so I just initialized it to 1.
22:05:19evilnickamblin: Personally, I can hardly ever hear the electrical noise, unless I am listening at rather quiet volumes
22:05:24saratogaevilnick: Ogg is pretty easy on the CPU, for a long time it was one of the fastest ARM codecs aside from flac and mpc
22:05:46saratogathe sansa noise probably mainly happens with 16 ohm headphones and IEMs for what its worth

23:29:28mtlinuxstb : Dear God ! I'm sure I fixed those read/write warnings, don't know how I managed to not include them in the patch -(this is one of the mistakes I told you about :/ ) .. Are you going to be here after ~20 mins ? I want to go eat something.

23:40:24BigBambiWhen editing english.lang (for spelling) should I change source or dest or both (and if both I assume I then need to fix all the other languages too)?

23:45:40linuxstbmt: A few more comments: 1) do you need to keep those commented-out lines in main() ? If it is debugging code, you could surround it by #ifdefs instead (using a suitable #define to enable). 2) You should declare packet_count to be the same type (uint32_t) as nb_packets, rather than casting it. 3) Do you need both bswap.h and libavutil/bswap.h ?
