00:49:04stripwaxIn pictureflow on ipod, is it 'by design' that you can't just keep rotating the touchwheel to dial past the cover art? What seems to work is swiping repeatedly in one direction, which is 'kinda' like swiping the ipod touch screen.. but I'm wondering if that is due to a bug or deliberate..

01:35:42loyxis there a way to build rockbox without building the plugins

01:35:54loyxoh ok
01:35:56loyxty
01:35:58JdGordon|that will only do the main binary
01:37:18Mikachuyou can also just press ctrl-c after you see it creates rockbox.yourtarget
01:39:05Unhelpfulstripwax: that sounds very odd, pictureflow uses the scroll events on scrollwheel targets.
01:39:19Mikachuit worked more or less fine for me when i tried it on my nano
01:41:55Unhelpfulit works great on my e200, but those have a physical wheel.

02:24:40 Join mi__ [0] (n=pc@user-160uvlr.cable.mindspring.com)
02:25:53mi__hi just a couple questions, i am guessing you cannot splice a game controller to your usb connection since it has no usb host on the device correct? I have a sansa e260
02:27:44mi__also since it plays doom are there any other ports of games like comething commander keen style jill of the jungle? gameboy emulation is slow at best (I wasn't expecting much, emulation is always taxing) but doom runs rather well
02:28:13JdGordon|yes and no
02:28:19funmannow you can use your player as a keybioard (USB HID)
02:30:57mi__funman, couldn't you always? maybe i am misunderstanding but the keys act as the hid. I was wondering if you could splice in a controller and have the device driver on a sansa.
02:32:29krazykitmi__, you could if you made the connector right, wrote the code for usb host, added the drivers for the gamepad, and made doom / rockboy use the controller.
02:32:31funmanah ok. you can't, and i don't think it's possible to do
02:32:50funmanif it's possible to use the usb chip as host which is not guaranteed
02:32:57krazykiti was under the impression that the software usb targets could do host
02:33:20mi__one of the toughest things with doom is a lack of strafe since there are no enough keys but an eternal controller.
02:33:22funmani understood that some needed pins could not have been soldered

04:22:15Lloreansaratogahome: It's not something we normally do unless there's a specific reason to
04:22:28LloreanIn this case, we ought to for USB enabled targets to bypass the "boot OF for USB" in many of the bootloaders
04:23:01saratogahomeas i recall the plan was to update the bootloaders when USB was enabled
04:23:13saratogahomewas there any discussion as to why we shouldn't?
04:23:48LloreanI don't *think* so.
04:24:20saratogahomeupdating the bootloaders is as simple as copying them to the download server right?
04:25:39LloreanProbably want new sansapatcher binaries with them compiled in too, so the manual install steps are still accurate, but I think that's the only other thing besides uploading new ones.
04:26:15saratogahomewe should do that before people notice
04:29:08LloreanWe should probably have a news post about the need to update the bootloader. Does RBUtil have the ability to let users known their bootloader is out of date?

12:04:51fmlWould anybody object to the following patch: http://pastebin.ca/1466099 ? It imroves code readability IMO. No RAM or binary changes (and of course no functional changes).
12:07:23fmlAlso, I'd like to change the speed display in the pitch screen to show the real playback speed and not the internally used factor. It's been discussed here or in the mailing list. But IIRC, no agreement has been achieved.
12:08:51gevaertsfml: I'd go for both the real speed *and* the factor
12:09:50gevaertsI seem to remember that someone was going to work on this though, so maybe you can coordinate
12:09:58fmlgevaerts: would you show three values? Pitch, Speed and the factor?
12:10:43gevaertsfml: I'd just add the "real speed" to all modes, yes
12:10:52fmlIMO the factor is just a technical detail, it's not something that is normally used to describe a sound property
12:11:54gevaertsmaybe
12:13:26fmlgevaerts: what is "real speed"? The speed at which the file is played back? I.e. if the song would normally take 1 min to play but now it takes 2 min to play then the real speed is 50%, right?
12:13:53fmlNote that this does not depend on the pitch
12:14:29 Quit matsl (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
12:15:10gevaertshm, do we want the relative speed, or the relative time?
12:15:15*gevaerts isn't sure
12:15:15fmlIn the old pitch modes, we change both pitch and speed. In the new mode, they are changed separately.
12:15:18Llorean"speed" should be what the user sees. if it says 100%, the played time should be going down at 1 second per second, no matter what happens behind the scenes.
12:15:54LloreanSpeed should basically adjust the rate at which the progress bar moves, pitch should adjust what the user actually hears without changing that progress bar movement rate, and everything else should be "behind the scenes" in my mind
12:16:20fmlLlorean: this my view as well. But it's not the case in the current SVN
12:16:35LloreanI know
12:16:45*gevaerts probably agrees
12:16:58LloreanBasically, the values should represent what the user can observe.
12:17:09fmlLlorean: so a patch would probably be accepted (if implemented properly)?
12:17:17LloreanI'd be all for it.
12:17:36fmlOk, I just wouldn't like to waste time :-)
12:17:36LloreanHow much RAM does enabling timestretch cost?
12:18:31fmlLlorean: how can I see it? I only have the statically produced rb-info.txt. Everything else goes at the cost of the audio buffer IMO.
12:18:54gevaertsLlorean: 64K according to flyspray
12:19:12fmlSo the question is probably how much of the audio buffer is spent for the feature
12:19:25Lloreangevaerts: Maybe it should just be always on.
12:20:13LloreanIt might be possible to reclaim it later with improvements to how we allocate memory for buffering, etc, but right now having to enable it and then also switch modes makes it kinda confusing to use.
12:20:21Llorean*reclaim it when not in use
12:20:31gevaertsLlorean: being able to get bits of the audio buffer without stopping playback would be really useful for this sort of thing
12:20:46LloreanEspecially tiny bits
12:21:27gevaertswell, tiny... this is 1/32 of the total RAM on the clip :)
12:21:34Unhelpfulmalloc ;)
12:21:37LloreanOnly HD targets count. :-P
12:21:51gevaertsUnhelpful: malloc is a word, not an implementation :)
12:22:27fmlWhat about the patch above? (http://pastebin.ca/1466099) Would I be sentenced for committing it?
12:24:47Unhelpfulactually, there are some buflib features i want to see in the core buf* functions, most notably the ability to compact the buffer after some items are bufclose'd, freeing contiguous space at the end, and to find the "last" buffer item for audio data (the one latest in the playlist of those buffered, i suppose), and either close or truncate it to make space.
12:25:14Lloreanfml: I don't see that as really improving readability too much. As well "midheight" being "height * 2" seems odd to me.
12:25:25LloreanJust, name-wise
12:25:26gevaertsfml: well, the main problem with those is when you want to find out where code comes from, as it makes svn blame much less useful
12:26:03Unhelpfulactually, buflib can only do the first of those things, but even that would be useful by itself, if we add a refcount field and only load cover images once, for example.
12:26:20LloreanUnhelpful: That at least has been long talked of
12:26:47fmlLlorean: yes, the name was suspicious to me too. It's the height of the middle viewport. Its value is double height. What's the best name for it?
12:27:33UnhelpfulLlorean: amiconn and i talked about this a few weeks ago. it's on my list, i'd like to use such things to, for example, carve the plugin buffer dynamically from the end of the audio buffer, and have it disappear entirely when no plugin is loaded.
12:27:39fmlgevaerts: so no code changes without any real (functional?) improvements?
12:28:28Unhelpfulhe had also suggest that being able to change the plugin buffer size at runtime would be a cleaner solution than overlay plugins :)
12:29:59LloreanUnhelpful: So the ability to de-buffer audio too? Compact to the front, then if there's not enough free, drop a little at the end?
12:30:43LloreanBeing able to change the plugin buffer at runtime would also be excellent for, for example, Rockboy which really needs about a 768KiB buffer to improve compatibility while listening to music
12:32:30Unhelpfulpictureflow and the other plugins that use overlay on hwcodec could also use such functionality to run during playback, by requesting a larger plugin buffer.
12:33:57Unhelpfuland yes, i already know that we'd need to implement it *twice* to have it on hwcodec as well :/
12:35:30LloreanHonestly, I'd consider it better than the current situation if it required playback to restart and rebuffer from disk to re-allocate.
12:35:44LloreanAs long as the restart and rebuffer were automatic, I mean music would only be gone for a second anyway
12:36:45gevaertsfml: if the style is really horrible, it's different of course, but personally I'd prefer not to change this particular bit
12:38:26fmlgevaerts: ok, then I'll leave it as it is now
12:43:06UnhelpfulLlorean: i don't see why we should *have* to restart and rebuffer, though. it seems like buffering.c already contains some support for moving individual buffer. it even helpfully updates the pointers in bitmap buffers for you. :)
12:43:52LloreanUnhelpful: My point was that I'd consider that still an improvement on the current situation, though, was all. :)
12:44:02***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
12:44:48Unhelpfuli can imagine that codecs, or anything else, that uses coprocessor threads and the buffer could possibly get burned by doing that sort of thing?
12:45:11LloreanFrom restarting playback entirely?
12:45:24Unhelpfulno, from moving buffers.
12:45:41LloreanAh
12:46:48 Quit bertrik (Remote closed the connection)
12:48:18Unhelpfulbuflib has the same problem if you want to use cop - there's really no way to know if a buffer has been moved since you fetched a pointer for its handle. it's fine on one core, because this can only happen when you yield, but a second core ruins that assumption.
12:50:10 Join nazir [0] (n=opera@bartek.tu.kielce.pl)
12:50:10Unhelpfulthe best scheme i could come up with for that sort of thing was to have cop+buffer users register a semaphore that they hold *most* of the time, but release on some regular basis. the basic idea would be that to move a buffer associated with such a semaphore you would need to acquire it, and the process using that buffer would understand that the buffer would normally not move, but might move each time it releases the lock on it.

12:53:26Unhelpfuldo we *do* sample-accurate seeks on resume? :)
12:53:44gevaertsthat's a major part of the "hope for the best" bit

13:38:06fmlLlorean: in that case I'd just change the speed/pitch with "normal" controls, and then back. The BPM is not displayed in the screen anyway so you have to use your ears. And with normal controls you're more flexible.
13:38:48Lloreanfml: If your target speed is 120.3%, it's very hard to go back to it *exactly* from a faster or slower speed, especially instantly
13:39:05LloreanBeing able to drop from 122.3 to 120.3% the instant you hear the beats occur at the same time is handy.
13:39:37LloreanThe regular UI just doesn't allow this to be done easily at all.
13:40:04fmlLlorean: ok, maybe. This is from the "advanced DJ tools" area :-)
13:41:56LloreanI'd say instead of a "pitch screen" it should probably just use menus like normal settings.
13:42:23*Llorean doesn't really understand why it needs a custom screen.
13:42:47LloreanWith normal menus, you could set speed to 120.3, then after setting it, move it to 122.3 and as soon as you catch up, cancel out of the menu so it drops back to 120.3
13:45:44fmlSo we'd have two settings: one for the pitch ond the other for the speed? If timestretch is enabled the two can be adjusted independently. If it's not enabled changing one setting would also affect the other. Is it what you're thinking about?
13:46:23 Join Lss [0] (n=Lss@cm162.delta96.maxonline.com.sg)
13:46:38fmlOr, if timestretch is disabled, we could show only one setting but call it "pitch and speed"
13:47:20LloreanPersonally, I think we could be rid of the option to turn time stretch on and off, and just have the speed and pitch settings always independent.
13:47:42LloreanBut otherwise, yes, have changing one also change the other probably

14:00:30LloreanI'd say it's one of the least intuitive things to use (even once you know how Rockbox tends to work)

14:19:06LloreanIs there a point in it being measured in semitones actually?

14:22:16fmlLlorean: yes. Semitones are a term from the music and are often used when transposing or adjusting the music to the voice etc.
14:23:00Lloreanfml: I'm aware what a semitone is.
14:23:34LloreanMy point though was that Rockbox is primarily a playback device. Options should, generally, be things you might want to change "in the field." Wouldn't adjusting that be more something you'd prepare in advance if you're singing / playing along?
14:23:56LloreanI mean, the original pitch shift was there because we didn't have the ability to time stretch
14:26:31*LambdaCalculus37 has sound and touchpad on his GoGear SA9200 :)
14:26:49fmlOr the other way around: the speed change was there because we didn't have the ability to time stretch. I think both are useful. What if you use the same song but different people would like to sing along with it?
14:27:21LambdaCalculus37And no one ever sent a "Ladies and Gentlemen..." mail for that target in over a year. ;)
14:29:47Lloreanfml: Traditionally the song is played with specific notes independently of what the people are singing... But anyway, I was just asking to be sure semitones are the more useful.
14:32:58fmlLlorean: they are just useful, not "more useful". We'd still need fine tuning IMO. And that with specific notes is true −− but only for the people with absolute pitch. For the rest, it's more or less the same.
14:33:52LloreanWhy is fine tuning "needed"?
14:34:05LloreanSaying it's needed doesn't explain anything on its own.
14:35:05 Join n1s [0] (n=n1s@rockbox/developer/n1s)
14:35:18fmlLlorean: in order to be able to exactly match the pitch −− to e.g. how an instrument is tuned.
14:36:22LloreanIf the song is the right pitch, doesn't that mean the instrument is out of tune?
14:36:33fmlSay you want to play guitar along with different songs. Which are not exactly at an integer number of semitones from each other.
14:37:17LloreanIf you need fine tuning always, what's the point in semitones in the first place? It's just an approximation that you can get to by scrolling through the percentage list quickly.
14:38:30Mikachuit's easier to go to the right general area by semitones and then fine tune i would think
14:39:36LloreanYou can scroll through lists pretty darn fast.
14:39:50Mikachui don't mean mechanically fast, but figuring out where to go in the first place
14:40:00fmlFine tuning is more powerful, yes, but tuning in semitones is more handy. More generally, I'd say it's good to have larger steps than 0.1%, and semitones are just natural larger steps.
14:40:59fmlMikachu: that too, yes! Everybody who makes music can approximately tell how many semitones the difference is.
14:42:04LloreanIn a list, large steps is less important anyway since we have scroll acceleration.
14:42:17fmlLlorean: if in the fine list we'd have additional marks on the entries that correspond to semitones that would be a solution maybe
14:42:46LloreanThe normal settings list wouldn't allow that, I believe.
14:43:29LloreanIf you're playing an instrument along with a song, shouldn't it be tuned properly for the song?
14:43:29fmlLlorean: with a custom formatting function it should be possible
14:43:38LloreanI'm confused as to why you want to adjust the song to your instrument, rather than the other way around.
14:43:58Mikachuit's kind of hard to adjust a piano, for one
14:44:00LloreanAnd if the song is out of tune, why are you playing along to that recording instead of a good one?
14:44:05***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
14:44:28fmlLlorean: because it's harder to tune the instrument than to adjust the pitch. And if I have different songs it can became a nightmare to retune it every time.

14:45:20Lloreanfml: How often would you say you use the fine tuning to match it to an instrument?
14:45:26LloreanAs in, how often have you personally done it?
14:46:02 Quit robin0800 (Remote closed the connection)
14:50:04fmlLlorean: I can't tell exactly. Not very often. Most of the time I use semitone adjustment if I need it. That's why I'm also annoyed by the fact that that's not the default mode :-)
14:50:59LloreanI think semitone adjustment would be adequate. The primary function of Rockbox is playback, not "adjusting out of tune songs to play along with possibly slightly differently tuned instruments"
14:51:20Llorean And if your songs are in-tune, and your instrument is too, there shouldn't be a problem right? It's just for solving the *error* case.
14:51:31LloreanOr is there a case where everything is right and it's still needed?
14:51:55fmlLlorean: the song is probably OK, just the instrument is tuned differently.
14:52:03LloreanBut is there a case where everything is right and it's still needed?
14:52:36fmlIf everything is right it still might be needed if you like to play it in a different tune
14:52:45LloreanRockbox shouldn't be given the job of making up for your instrument. And there are a thousand things that can be wrong with files or songs that we already don't fix because it's outside the scope, this really should be too.
14:53:19Lloreanfml: Is that a *realistic* example there? Really?

14:54:52fmlWhy not have the fine list with additional marks? It should be easy to implement as we can have a custom formatting function for the values in the list
14:55:30LloreanBecause we could save more binsize by not implementing custom formatting for all of one list, for a feature that is almost never used outside of correcting errors that shouldn't be Rockbox's problem?

14:56:22LloreanPeople might want to adjust their equalizer in .1db steps, or adjust the frequency by 1hz at a time. There's a thousand settings in Rockbox that *could* offer users more freedom, but instead are constrained to a "common sense" range. Semitones really seems like that range for pitch.

14:59:50fmlI could live with just semitones quite well
15:00
15:00:13fmlBut wouldn't mind if it were possible to do fine tuning as well
15:00:35LloreanMaybe 10 cent increments instead of whole semitones?
15:00:45LloreanSo that you can fine tune, but you're still on a scale where semitones are obvious?
15:01:53fmlLlorean: what is cent? 10%?
15:02:26LloreanIf my understanding is correct, a semitone is 100 cents, so 10% of a semitone yes.
15:02:45fmlThe problem with semitones is that it's not a linear scale. It's logarithmic.
15:03:12LloreanSo is the cent
15:03:23LloreanOtherwise a semitone couldn't consistently be 10 cents
15:03:30Lloreanhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cent_(music)
15:03:33fml...(or exponential): one semitone = frequency * (1/2)^(1/12)
15:06:17LambdaCalculus37lowlight: (for the logs) I have a new bootloader and your build for the GoGear SA9200 installed. It'w working great!
15:06:43fmlLlorean: (after loking to the wikipedia) Ah, ok, it's just more fine (too fine for common use IMO) unit. 1/2 semitone would be enought in most cases I think
15:07:13fmlLlorean: I.e. 50 (music) cents
15:07:20LloreanYou could display it as .1 semitone rather than 10 cents, for easier understanding. .5 works too. My point, really, was "keep the scale in semitones but use finer units, rather than custom formatting"
15:07:45LloreanI don't object to finer tuning, I just want to try to keep things "simple" with how the menu works.

18:09:39Torne...hang on, does lcd_puts() really determine what 'x' means by multiplying it by the width of the string divided by the number of characters?
18:09:55*linuxstb hangs on tight
18:10:02Tornesurely that makes it totally useless on proportional fonts
18:10:11Torneno way to get anything to ever line up
18:10:20oboTorne: what proportional fonts?
18:10:22B4gderZagor: it struck me that the upload in the bg works fine with the protocol we worked on
18:10:23ZagorTorne: well, is it used?
18:10:40ZagorB4gder: ah, true! that makes bandwidth a near non-issue
18:10:42TorneZagor: hard to tell if anything calls it without setting the font to sysfixed first
18:10:49Tornebut i would guess not
18:11:40Tornesince my interpretation of the code is that lcd_puts(1, 0, "iiiiii") leaves a gap on the left the width of an 'i' whereas lcd_puts(1, 0, "wwwwww") leaves one the width of a 'w'
18:11:48Tornewhich makes it difficult to use sensibly :)
18:12:27Torneobo: most of the fonts other than sysfixed are proportional..
18:12:58Mikachuusually i think programs use the with of 'm' for proportional fonts

18:13:12TorneMikachu: other programs might, yes, but rockbox doesn't appear to
18:13:16Torne:)
18:13:27Tornei'm looking in lcd_puts_style_offset in lcd-16bit.c
18:15:12linuxstbTorne: I think that function is almost exclusively used with an "x" of 0 - so no-one cared. Use lcd_putsxy() instead.
18:15:34Torneheh
18:16:38Torneohwell
18:17:43Torneit just seems overcomplicated to get a useless answer. :)
18:17:47linuxstbamiconn _may_ have an explanation for that logic when he's around though - he's done a lot of the work on the graphics API.
18:17:58Torneif it's only going to do something sensible for fixed width fonts it may as well just use the font width
18:18:07Tornerather than calculating the string width then dividing it by the length :)
18:18:28Tornei expect it's just the result of generalising from character cell display

19:30:15saratogaocean__: its the mapping between logical addresses in software, and physical cells of memory on the flash chip
19:30:51saratogathe software continually changes them around to ensure that writes to the same logical address don't all write to the same physical cell in memory, wearing it out over time
19:34:36ocean__yep read the intel paper and specs
19:34:48ocean__and why the chinachip should be different?
19:35:20ocean__also, as i wrote on the forum on linux 2.6.30 i cannot see the flash fat partitition on windows yes
19:35:30ocean__so maybe windows drivers support that kind of FTL
19:36:26ocean__if it is so i could try to get a hand on reversing the driver
19:37:30saratogaocean__: the FTL is a piece of software in the original firmware's flash memory driver
19:37:39saratogait happens below the level of the USB protocol and windows driver
19:38:43saratogaeach manufactorer likely comes up with their own implementation, or licenses someone elses, so there will be many differences between different devices
19:39:07ocean__mmm ok so maybe it's not possible to get to a raw read of the sectors behind fat partition as i hipotized in forum
19:39:37saratogayou can get raw sectors in rockbox, and get remapped sectors in the OF's USB mode

20:06:16ocean__"several FTL provide different API level"
20:06:30jds_thats not exactly true
20:06:55ocean__and cite FTL, VFL, FIL levels in Samsung S-SIM FTL
20:07:04jds_in the sourcecode the vfl seems to map logical to virtual 'ftl' addresses
20:07:21jds_sry, virtual vfl addresses
20:07:32jds_and the vfl determines the physical address
20:07:40ocean__could be some kind of virtual address translation
20:08:57jds_you're right
20:08:58ocean__http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/lorenzo/corsi/cs372/03F/notes/11-13.pdf

20:27:13B4gderindeed
20:27:45Tornejds_: FTLs hav eto deal with three similar things and they sometimes do it in seperate layers: bad block remapping, erase blocks being bigger than sectors, and wear levelling
20:27:55Tornejds_: so that's possibly what the different layers there are
20:28:07ocean__mcuelenaere: yes
20:29:07mcuelenaereocean__: yes, the NFTL can be reverse engineered from the OF
20:29:17mcuelenaereI already identified the functions, but haven't looked into reversing them

20:41:31ocean__mcuelenaere: i have a little idea to avoid bricking up the little box, if i dump the every single bit in the nand like you've done and restore it, i also restore the firmware, the i could also try upgrading to some new onda firmware, and if goes wrong i restore the entire dump

20:58:08obofunman: well, I'm not sure about recovery details... recovery mode seems to be built into the bootloader, which I'd be replacing?
20:58:14Torneis the soc manual around?
20:58:25low_lightfunman: we don't replace the OF bootloader on portalplayer devices (assuming the view is a pp decendent)
20:58:40mcuelenaereTorne: NAND flash can be connected to static memory bank 4~ band 1. Both 8-bit and 16-bit NAND flashes are supported. Hardware ECC generator is implemented (including Hamming and RS codes correction). A mechanism for booting from NAND flash is also supported.

21:02:48obolow_light: good to know. does it still load the OF from a file, or does it read from the second (hidden) partition?
21:02:56funmanoh you only replace the .mi4 (which is a _rockbox_ bootloader, right?)
21:03:48 Quit BryanJacobs ("Page closed")
21:04:15low_lightobo: if it's like the c200/e200 then it's loaded from the hidden partition
21:06:41obolow_light: yup, the view OF does that (the magic in that partition is a little different, but it's very similar to an e200) - I just wasn't clear about how the rb bootloader did it
21:07:11 Part captain_kewl
21:08:59 Quit B4gder (Connection timed out)
21:10:14low_lightobo: the rb bootloader replaces the firmware, and simply loads rockbox.mi4 from the disk
21:12:58obolow_light: Okay. I guess I'll worry about that if I actually get around to having worth installing :) Back to looking at LCD code
21:15:40low_lightobo: have you tried the e200 emulator (FS #6524)? It has been very useful for me in the porting PP devices.
21:16:50obolow_light: I had a look at it a month or two ago, but I didn't have much luck in getting anything to run - will have to have another try

21:31:03low_lightobo: I believe I started with the last one. You'll need to adjust the ram offset. The e200 loads to 0x10600000 whereas you say the view loads to 0x10f00000.
