#rockbox log for 2009-08-22

00:00:16MG_ManAm I correct in assuming that the h300's CPU is more powerful (140 mHz as compared to 80)
00:00:26AlexPSort of
00:00:38AlexPThe ipod is dual core, and architecture differences matter too
00:00:47AlexPIt isn't just a case of raw MHz
00:01:04linuxstbAnd the CPU in the h300 (and h100) is run at 124MHz.
00:01:25MG_ManHmm, I don't think the ability to buffer MP4s and AACs and such doesn't matter much to me, as I usually do MP3s and OGGs
00:01:39AlexPThen anything is fine
00:02:52MG_Mananyway
00:02:59MG_ManAn h320 for .99 on Ebay
00:03:04MG_ManThat's too fishy

00:10:21AlexPBdN3504: What are you trying to add?
00:11:18MG_ManCan the H300 series charge through the USB port or only a DC plug?

00:18:04saratogayes it will
00:18:09eulerphithanks :)
00:18:24eulerphiFAAD: compressed input bitrate missing, assuming 128kbit/s! ^_-
00:18:30eulerphiwonder how that happened
00:19:22saratogawhat?
00:19:53eulerphii set it to 64kbps, but it's assuming 128kbps
00:20:00eulerphiin mplayer
00:21:15saratogawhy would you set a rate for a decoder?
00:21:25eulerphii mean when i encoded it
00:21:31eulerphiwith ffmpeg
00:21:57saratogaFAAD is a decoder, not an encoder
00:22:04eulerphii know
00:22:15eulerphiwhen i try to play it, i get that message
00:22:32saratogathats probably some kind of bug in whatever program you're using

01:10:25BdN3504how do i adress only monochrome targets in the manual? using \opt{player} doesn't seem to work, as the manual for "0" show up stuff which i actually opted out
01:12:29 Quit saratoga ("Page closed")
01:12:41pixelmaI`d invert the lcd_non-mono with an \nopt
01:14:06pixelmathe Player is only one very specific display (charcell) which is monochrome still, but the other monochrome screens are not charcell
01:14:28pixelmaand are not Player...
01:15:49pixelmaBdN3504: I don't understand the second part of your statement, so don't know what you want exactly
01:15:54BdN3504pixelma: displaying images can be done by which targets?
01:16:17 Quit captainkwel ("Page closed")
01:16:45BdN3504i meant i compiled a manual for "player" and got a manual for all archos players in which a nopt i defined simply is ignored
01:17:33BdN3504namely a \nopt{player} is displayed, although i selected player in the ../tools/config
01:18:10pixelmaall bitmap displays can show images so... \opt{lcd_bitmap}
01:18:29pixelmaist that in an example or so?
01:19:38BdN3504noi, it's in a normal paragraph like blalbalbabla.\nopt{player}{blablabla{ref} blabla.}
01:20:14pixelmamaybe you forgot a } somewhere before
01:21:22AlexPUsing an editor with some sort of syntax highlighting is a good idea - it'll show you matching {}s
01:22:39BdN3504i use a miktex disto
01:22:45BdN3504distro
01:23:14AlexP.tex are just text files, you can use any editor you want
01:24:18BdN3504Using an editor with some sort of syntax highlighting is a good idea - it'll show you matching {}s
01:24:27BdN3504miktex -> texnic center

01:26:15BdN3504then i don't get your point
01:27:17BdN3504anyway, i think i'll post the patch. if anyone can fix it, fine. if not i don't think it's such a big deal. this is in a very comittable state, the only problems occuring refer to these opts
01:27:25AlexPYou can edit them in anything you like, miktex, notepad, whatever. If miktex does things like syntax highlighting, then great.
01:27:54AlexPIf \opts not working lead to the wrong information getting into the wrong manuals, then it isn't committable
01:28:34AlexPBut anyway, more eyes on a patch is always a good idea
01:28:42AlexPWhat are you trying to document?
01:30:36BdN3504viewports
01:30:45BdN3504and the only target which gets wrong is the player
01:31:10AlexPthat's great, but they all need to be right before it goes in :)
01:31:16AlexPGood work incidently :)
01:31:47BdN3504word on the streets is only 2 persons worldwide currently own and use a player...
01:31:55AlexPThat doesn't matter
01:32:01AlexPEven if it were true
01:32:02BdN3504hrhrhr
01:35:37BdN3504i have to include some newlines, to make it more readable, you got another 5 minutes?
01:36:14AlexPI'm off to bed soon, tomorrow should be OK :)
01:36:47pixelmalearning how things work in general and how to get them right will help too. \opts are not a Player specific thing...

02:13:11rashermcuelenaere: oh heh, checkallthemes() is the wrong name
02:13:22rasherit's called with a theme-id of the newly added theme
02:13:28rasherwhich means it only checks that theme
02:13:37rasherI can see where the confusion arises...
02:13:50mcuelenaereah ok :)
02:13:59rasherThe plan was to set up a cronjob that hits the ?runcheckwps link on the admin page, but I never got round to that..
02:14:18mcuelenaereis that the only thing that needs to be done? (ie ?runcheckwps is already implemented)

02:14:37rasherYep
02:14:43rasherSee the bottom of the admin frontpage
02:15:48rasherJust the issue of requiring login, but I guess that's not really necessary
02:16:19rasherThere should probably be some sort of time-lock on it though so it doesn't get hammered. It takes a while to run
02:16:38mcuelenaereI guess that a separate php script in private/ calling the function should do it? (as a cronjob)

03:00:41MG_ManIs there a way to scroll an image across the screen for a progress bar other than using stacked BMPs?
03:00:47MG_ManNo I do not mean the current progress bar
03:01:11MG_ManBut say you have a box that you want to go across the screen
03:02:27goffa_hmm... having a wierd issue with my s120
03:02:42MG_ManIs there some way to use the playback percentage enumeration as the X coordinate or something? Or does wps script not do math functions like that
03:02:47goffa_sometimes when i delete 2 files in a row from the wps it locks and shuts down

03:07:32MG_ManI guess I could fake it by using 2 progress bars
03:07:49MG_ManOne of them gold (the color of the box to move) and the other match the background
03:07:57MG_ManSo as the gold one goes, the background one also covers it up
03:18:37UnhelpfulMG_Man: in general, having any elements of your WPS overlap is not a good idea
03:19:12MG_ManI see where it can go wrong
03:19:22MG_ManI still want to try it out first, it might loo kreally cool of it works
03:19:27MG_Manlook*
03:20:17MG_ManI've had to do strange things to my theme to get it to wok right between album art and no album art, but not by overlapping
03:20:49MG_ManReason was the viewports kept eating through the text blocks I had and showing the purple background, so I thought I'd just put them on the background
03:21:01UnhelpfulMG_Man: i don't think there's any way to do what you're talking about. progress bar images are not slide over, they're always left-aligned and then truncated to indicate progress
03:21:27MG_ManYes, I know
03:21:37MG_ManI'm thinking of something though
03:21:48Unhelpfuli think that adding an offset-style progress bar would be a reasonable thing, though
03:23:32MG_ManWhere instead of chopping off the progress bar graphic according to how much is played, it drags it to the right
03:23:43MG_ManThen if you wanted rounded corners, you'd just place a tansparent image over it
03:23:49Unhelpfulthe obvious way would be just to make it 2x as wide as you want, and have the WPS draw <width> pixels starting at <offset>
03:23:59Unhelpfulyou can't "just place a transparent image over it" :)
03:24:57Unhelpfulthere is no support for overlapping viewports that are visible at the same time, as far as i know. no guarantees are made about their draw order, or even that all of them will be redrawn when one is.
03:26:22MG_ManSo far what I've seen that no matter what images are on top
03:26:33MG_ManI did this by having an image and text in the same place in one viewport
03:27:06MG_Manif the image is under the viewport, well then the viewport eats through it and shows the background
03:32:52UnhelpfulMG_Man: if you want an image behind your text, or behind some other dynamic item, what you need is to put that image in the background. :)
03:33:04MG_ManYes, that's what I ended up doing
03:33:18MG_ManIt got complicated when I wanted it to look different with album art though, but I worked it out
03:33:30MG_ManIt's just quite hacky and hard to explain, you'd have to see the background itself
03:34:25MG_ManHere is the background though

03:34:37MG_ManWhy the black box? It's the backdrop for album art in case it's not square
03:35:05MG_ManWhen there's no album art it displays this over it
03:35:06MG_Manhttp://img231.imageshack.us/img231/7804/watitlesnoart.png
03:35:27MG_ManThen text is drawn over it, but it bleeds through
03:35:29UnhelpfulMG_Man: yes, that's probably the "best" way to do it. :)
03:35:31MG_ManIt shows black anyway
03:35:44MG_ManYou can't tell the difference in the actual thing though, so it's all good
03:36:17MG_Manonly real difference is that the purple/blue part seems to dither somewhat differently than the rest of the background, but you can't notice unless you're looking for it
03:36:27Unhelpfulbut, are you saying that when there *is* album art, it displays over the boxes for the title, album, and artist?
03:36:43MG_ManYes
03:36:50MG_ManIt also adds ends to those boxes over to it's left
03:36:52MG_Manright*
03:37:00 Quit moos (Read error: 131 (Connection reset by peer))
03:37:04MG_ManBy instead of displaying the titlesnoalbumart, it shows this
03:37:14Unhelpfulum, yes, well, bitmaps that are not already 15/16bpp are dithered on load, and the dither matrix aligns to the top right corner of the bitmap ;)
03:37:41MG_ManAnd there are alternate visports that have the text start next to the album art
03:37:42MG_Manhttp://img194.imageshack.us/img194/4885/watitlesart.png
03:37:46MG_ManOtherwise it's centered
03:38:01 Join moos [0] (i=mustapha@rockbox/staff/moos)
03:38:07MG_ManThat picture covers up the longer part of the bars
03:38:13Unhelpfulthe dither matrix is 16x16, so if you line up the top and left edges at 16*N you won't have a dithering problem
03:38:23MG_ManAnd the album art goes in the black box, whic his black no matter what because it's also on the background
03:38:32Unhelpfulalternately you could dither things yourself and save a 16-bit bmp :)
03:38:50MG_ManI'm pretty sure I did that, at least thats what photoshop says
03:38:58MG_Manit may be doing it wrong though, I'll re-save it in Pain
03:39:00MG_ManPaint*
03:39:09MG_ManA typo? Or was it?
03:39:57Unhelpfulwell, if you did ordered dither when saving it, it's *still* probably aligned to the coordinates of the individual bitmap, and not the bitmap's on-screen coordinates
03:40:17MG_Manwell the thing is, it doesnt seem to dither the no-art overlay, but it does dither the background
03:40:23MG_ManProbably has something to do with permanent image or not
03:40:31Unhelpfulif you want the dithers to line up, then you need to dither each bitmap padded to full-screen size, and then clip it down.
03:41:34Unhelpfulrockbox will dither any bitmap on load if it's not 15 or 16bpp... unless the caller asks for dithering to be disabled. i'm not sure what WPS passes for the dither flag when loading images.
03:41:49MG_Manhttp://img26.imageshack.us/img26/7696/odddither.png
03:41:59MG_ManThere's a dither parameter for loading images?

03:42:11Unhelpfulyes
03:42:18MG_ManLook around the title/album area
03:42:25MG_ManYou'll see it looks funky compared to the rest
03:43:54MG_Manhmm
03:44:02MG_ManIf there is a dithering flag, I don't see it on the CustomWPS page
03:44:03Unhelpful yes, that bitmap was either saved to 16bpp without dithering, or is saved as 24bpp and loaded with the don't-dither flag set

03:44:42MG_ManAh
03:44:49MG_ManYeah, I'll just have to fiddle with it
03:44:58Unhelpfulthe *function* that loads bitmaps takes a flag which can be used to tell it not to dither :)

04:39:36Unhelpfuldithering should probably *always* be enabled when loading WPS images... i'm assuming it's *not* already, for some reason. also, we should probably have an option to offset the dither coordinates so that the dither matrix will line up correctly when images are overlayed on the background
04:39:51MG_ManYeah, that would work
04:40:01MG_ManBut from what I gather, preloaded images aren't dithered

04:49:12Unhelpfuli believe rockbox will treat either as "native" on color targets, and force dithering off
04:50:42MG_ManTime to use good old DOS program CONVERT
04:53:00Unhelpfulhrm, actually, if you save them all *without* dithering as rgb565, they'll match that way, too.
04:53:38Unhelpfulif that's a DOS or windows version of imagemagick's convert program, then it runs on quite a bit more than DOS.
04:54:25MG_ManI'll try imagemagick then
04:57:22MG_ManSo imagemagick's dither makes it look roughly the same as if dosbox did it?

05:35:31MG_ManIf I like the ROckbox dithering so much, I'll just use Rockbox's dithering
05:35:50MG_ManThat is, add the overlay picture to the background image, screenshot, then copy it back to its separate image

12:36:23TurnipheadI have a minor problem with my second-hand Cowon M3. I installed Rockbox 22446-090821. I hear a clicking sound about half the volume of a normal keyclick while I'm playing audio. The same click occurs when I muce the cursor. All this while my Key Click setting of set to Off. Can anybody shed some light on this?

12:43:49n1sBdN3504: it might be tru *now* but nothing says it will stay true with future targets, it's better to make stuff depend on the things they really need
12:44:36pixelmaTurniphead: does this click while playing audio happen at regular intervals (without you touching the controls), and/or does it happen more often when there is a lot going on on the screen, like scrolling track title etc. (provided you have the remote connected)
12:45:15 Quit robin0800 (Remote closed the connection)
12:45:41TurnipheadThe remote is connected. And I'm not moving the controls. The sound occurs at regular intervals of about half a second or less.
12:46:24TurnipheadIt does seem to occur more often if there is scrolling text involved
12:47:13pixelmaI assume it doesn't happen without the remote?
12:47:34TurnipheadNope, no clicks at all
12:48:15n1sdoes the iaudios have that remote tick reduction setting?
12:48:43pixelmasounds a bit like the "remote ticking" problem that's there on other targts with remotes (it also depends on your actual device)
12:49:07TurnipheadWhere would I find that specific setting?
12:49:39pixelman1s: I don't think so but I believe seeing reports that some Iaudios have that problem - I could check if the setting is there on my M5 but don't have a remote to test
12:50:32TurnipheadIn my quest around the menu's of Rockbox I did not find a setting like that. As it is likely I would have tested that option :)

12:57:29pixelmait's not present here as well (in the Remote-LCD settings) too, but if it was prepared for the Iaudio remotes it would need special treatment for the M3

13:01:45pixelmawhich is not a big surprise as the patch is 2 years old

13:12:51pixelmaTurniphead: not sure if it helps but if you say that it's worse with more scrolling - maybe you could use (or create) a more static WPS as a band aid fix to lower the ticking?
13:14:25pixelmaor stay in the menu
13:17:35TurnipheadI noticed that last remark being helpfull (the menu thing) I'll try a WPS with as few 'live' or scrolling information fields as possible
13:21:12pixelmayou could disable scrolling lines (get rid of %s), don't show playback time etc., things that need regular updates. Have a look at the CustomWPS page in the wiki for possibilities. It's not a nice solution but if it makes listening more enjoyable, maybe worth it for now

14:50:53pixelmamcuelenaere: would it be possible that the RBUtility would check that line and doesn't "offer" the broken themes? Hmm... I can see a potential problem though - the ones just currently broken will still work with the release
14:51:47mcuelenaerepixelma: I think that's a question for bluebrother or domonoky, and when you're at it could you ask them to include the menu image too? ;)
14:51:54mcuelenaererasher: I'll take a look

14:56:00pixelmarasher: the last RBUtil release still offers me currently broken themes, just tried (of course this could be a problem of the Utility not the themes site and might be fixed in SVN)
14:57:10domonokyhm, the theme site tells rbutil, if a theme passed a specific version/release test. but rbutil doesnt use this at moment.
14:57:16rasherpixelma: yes, there appears to be an issue
14:57:46rasherhttp://themes.rockbox.org/rbutilqt.php?target=c200 <−− Notice that the broken themes are listed as having passed
14:59:06domonokyso its both ? the passed checks are wrong and rbutil doesnt use them ? :-)
14:59:17rasherSo it would seem
15:00
15:00:47rasherah, got it
15:00:57domonokyalso i find it difficult to think of a good way to check this things in rbutil. if the installed rb version is 3.3 and the theme site tells me pass_release="3.2" what should it do ?

15:06:01domonokys/now/know/
15:07:28pixelmacurrently the parser "only" got stricter, so if the WPSs were written correctly they will work with current build and the releases. This is not true with changes that break old WPS because of a new syntax, these changes don't happen very seldomly and are avoided. I can only think of the progressbar syntax as an example and the scrolling margin which didn't exist for long in SVN though
15:08:19mcuelenaererasher: nvm, it's done now
15:08:28pixelmaso unless something of the latter happens, the Utility could stay on the safe side and just offer themes that work for the current build
15:10:14domonokypixelma: i woud think the pass_current="..." will be often behind the current revision rbutil can install. if we stay on the safe side, then no themes would be installable.
15:10:34mcuelenaererasher: you're right, there's definitely something odd with that script; it seems to run checkwps several times for the same WPS.. (and it doesn't run it for RWPS'es)

15:14:15 Quit stripwax (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
15:14:31rashermcuelenaere: Yeah, I disabled checking rwps because it was causing the themes to not show up at all. Although I forget the exact reason
15:14:52rasherdomonoky: is pass_current="" better than no pass_current line?
15:15:17domonokyrasher: no, you just need to store the first failed revison and not update it on new checks, unless it passes again. (the clear the result to empty)
15:15:34rasherugh
15:16:17domonokyrasher: for rbutil pass_current="" is the same as no pass_current line (Qt ini parser gives a empty string for non-existant values)
15:16:57rasherOkay
15:17:13pixelmaif you look for pass_current, you will have themes working for 3.3 and 3.2 as well
15:17:19*domonoky wants a "fail_current" and a "fail_release" line.
15:17:33rasherfail_release?
15:18:16domonokyso we can hide them if the current installed version is <= fail_release :-)
15:18:27domonokyäh ">="
15:19:42pixelmathis is true as long as some syntax doesn't change dramatically
15:19:49domonokyhm, i think this is still not enough.. it may fail again in even older releases/revisions.. so we need to know the working "window".
15:23:04domonokyhm, looks like this is very difficult to solve properly.
15:28:07rasherOr maybe just not hand-hold the user *this* much
15:29:26rasherWe can tell in some cases that it *won't* work. I think we should leave it at that
15:29:33domonokyyes, maybe the best way would be to just use passed_xxx line to display a "last successfully test on version x" line
15:30:24domonokyrasher: with the current info, how can rbutil know for sure it wont work ?
15:30:51rasherIf the user has a current release, and pass_current is empty
15:31:14rasherOr (in the future) if the user has 3.4 and pass_release is empty

15:32:56domonokyso if pass_current/pass_release is empty we just hide it. (even if it might work if the user has a older version installed)
15:33:12rasherdomonoky: the theme site doesn't show the theme in that case either
15:34:14domonokykkurbjun: add the new target to rbutilqt.ini (just look at the other targets there for help). If it needs a new way to install the bootloader, you need to provide a new base/bootloaderXXX class.
15:34:45kkurbjuncool, and then I just have to add something for autodetection?
15:36:04domonokykkurbjun: autodetection based on USB-IDs is automatic (usb-ids are also in rbutilqt.ini) otherways to autodetect are harder to implement, (autodetection.cpp/h needs a rework to easily add new detection methods)
15:36:28kkurbjunoh, ok, I was looking at the special case stuff based on folder names
15:37:06domonokykkurbjun: you can add this in base/autodetection.cpp if you want.
15:37:42kkurbjunwhat is the reason for the special case detection?
15:37:53domonokybut autodetection.cpp really needs a rework to make it easier to extend, and also more reliable.
15:38:22kkurbjunif it does it by usb id on the m:robe then I think that would be best
15:38:40domonokykkurbjun: the problem with autodetection is: usb-ids arent always unique, and there is no crossplatform way to map USB-IDs -> mountpoints (at least at moment)

16:00
16:00:15kkurbjundomonoky: so the bootloader on the m:robe 500 needs to do a couple of things... right now it is enclosed in a zip file that has a complete image of the original firmware with a patch applied to it. You have to unzip that and then copy a file (rockbox.mrboot) to the root of the player. It then also needs a zip extraction of an exploited svg into another folder of the player. I could package it all as one..
16:00:20kkurbjunOn the H300 it looks like we require the user to download a copy of the firmware themselves... if we follow that method it will limit the users to only be able to install the bootloader in windows.. If we provide a pre-made zip they should be able to use it on any platform, but I don't know what the legal reasons are for making them download it themselves.
16:00:54mcuelenaererasher: hmm I hadn't actually looked at $ret nor $result['pass']..
16:01:17domonokythe legal reason to download himself, is that then we dont distribute software we dont own.
16:01:24Topy44why not release the patch as a binary patch file
16:01:58kkurbjunthe problem is that the download from the olympus site is in an executable - I'm not sure how the files are stored in it
16:02:01Topy44that can be applied with an (included) windows tool, but also with diff or the like on linux and mac
16:02:09domonokyso if we host this ZIP somewhere else where nobody cares and tell the user to download it from there, we should be fine :-)
16:02:10Topy44ah
16:02:27kkurbjunand they would need to run the exe and have the know how of which files to pull and when from it
16:02:28domonokyor we write a tool to extract the of from olympus exe file :-)
16:03:16Topy44well, try the known extraction methods... for example, check if universal extractor can find the file

16:30:50rasherWhich means the available size was smaller. Which means it was in fact, decreased.

16:33:20kugelwhich is only the wps as of now
16:34:00kugelI'm surprised that a theme actually hits the limit, all the themes I use don't even use half of the buffer
16:34:21kugelscorche|sh: but yea, my custom statusbar work also uses the same buffer
16:34:34Torneandrewrb: post on the forums with an example of the album art you have and the size your wps is rendering it at?
16:34:41scorche|shskin engine isnt wps...up the buffer size by 1000 x skin_token
16:35:35pixelmarasher: did you check what buffer your WPS actually uses (in the Rockbox Info screen)
16:35:39kugelthe wps uses the skin engine, but nothing else right now. the skin engine was derived from the wps
16:36:38andrewrbTorne: yeah, well myself and around five other D2 users have confirmed there is a problem over on the iAudiophile forums, with various sample images. I may post on the rockbox forums but as shotofadds is the only person really working on the D2 port it seems pointless (i have personal contact details for him)
16:37:22Torneyah, but it's not going to be specific to the D2 entirely, probably; it'll be whatever uses the same processor (probably some optimised code is dodgy on that proc?)
16:37:44andrewrbhmm, ok. i shall go post.

17:15:07rasherIt's currently using 18.4KB / 85.0KB

17:15:19rasher(apparently)
17:15:46kugelhow big is the bar?
17:16:05rasherAnyway, the effect is that there is no less room for a WPS to use. Regardless of how you try to weasel out of it
17:16:33rasherThe file is 103KB

17:19:53scorche|shrasher: he agrees woith you that it is an issue, but you are the only person who has really come up against it, and with such a huge buffer, you will probably be better off making your own build
17:20:09rasherscorche|sh: Me and whoever else is using my skin
17:20:29rasherAnyway, even if it would be possible to optimise it, that doesn't change the fact that this change has lowered the available room for WPSes

17:20:49*gevaerts votes for MEMSIZE/2 for the wps buffer
17:21:00andrewrbany D2 owners here?
17:21:31kugelwell, you could make small strips and display X strips depending on the volume
17:21:53jchillerupGood deal for people who would like a Rockbox-compatible ipod: http://sellout.woot.com/
17:22:24rasherkugel: that sounds gross. Also, back to my previous point
17:22:43kugelhuh?
17:23:01rasherThis change has lowered the limits of what's possible.
17:23:19kugelyes I noticed that
17:23:58 Quit Horscht (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
17:24:11kugelbut I'd rather optimize this single theme instead of pushing the buffer for everyone. the big volume bar is done in a pretty wasteful way anyway
17:24:36rasherCan't you only do strips vertically?
17:25:19kugelyes I think so
17:25:27rasherI don't see how you'd do it then
17:25:37Fanuc98can Rockbox run in DSL? (damn small linux?)
17:25:42kugelwell, I didn't mean to have those strips in a single file
17:26:14rasherThen I'd just end up with n files, totalling the same size as this single one
17:27:38kugelno
17:27:52rasherThen you'll have to explain yourself better
17:27:58rasherUnless I can do partial bitmap drawing in the horizontal direction, I just don't see how this'd work
17:29:19rasherAlso, this doesn't really help whoever else will be hitting this new, lower limit
17:29:53kugelwell, you need strips of the full volume and "no" volume. Split those into 6 or so strips. now if you're going from low volume to high, just replace the next strip (which is a strip of the no volume pic) with the corresponding strip of the full volume
17:30:05andrewrbwhy would album art appear differently in the simulator to on the actual target?
17:30:07kugelI don't think anyone else will hit the limit soon
17:30:29rasherkugel: "strips of the full volume and "no" volume." = twice the size of the current strip!

21:28:25kugelI don't know, I never noticed missing glyphs
21:28:59kugelbut I also don't really have stuff where I need anything "above" iso8859-1
21:29:49Unhelpfuli thought glyphs were loaded and cached as needed... should the memory requirement really go up if i'm still displaying the same text?
21:31:54kugelI don't think so. The cached glyphs are already the bitmaps, right? They shouldnt be much bigger that mono fonts IIUC
21:32:59Unhelpfulum, 4x bigger... 2bpp vs 1bpp. but i meant because of the extra characters. it shouldn't matter how many characters the *font* has if the number i display stays the same, right?
21:33:16Unhelpfuls/2/4 :)
21:33:42kugelI meant bitmaps in the native format, but I might be wrong
21:34:52gevaertsJdGordon says you're probably wrong

21:35:19kugelgevaerts: slap him
21:35:19Unhelpfulkugel: oh, no, they're *smaller* than native-format bitmaps, they're 4bpp vs 16bpp
21:36:02kugelUnhelpful: I thought they were in native format in the font buffer
21:36:05Unhelpfulkugel: did you take a look at my convttf changes? i'm still seeing some broken bits... i can't findanything obviously wrong, but i didn't write this originally ;)
21:36:37kugelI didn't either ;)
21:36:45kugelwhat sort of changes did you make?
21:36:48Unhelpfulkugel: how would they be? obviously we're passing them to the draw routine as 4bpp, and i don't see any code added to convert down
21:37:13Unhelpfulum: http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/8961#comment32205
21:39:03Unhelpfulbasically, the final line height is supposed to be the -p you requested. there will be -r pixels of padding added above and below characters, with -r defaulting to 1, and the magic "add a row to line height" gone
21:39:11rasherscorche|sh: wrong link

21:39:43rasherBut I don't see it..
21:39:45scorche|shoh, right
21:39:51kugelUnhelpful: that's what my version also does
21:40:03kugelfor the -p thing at least
21:40:10Unhelpfulkugel: i'm also doing it without rerunning the height test. :)
21:40:20T44the tower of rockbox is such a crazy idea considering most of those players are hd based and have very slippery surfaces :)
21:40:24scorche|shrasher: try it now
21:41:25UnhelpfulT44: we're such such wiiiiiild an ca-razy guys!
21:41:26kugelUnhelpful: I do that because fonts are generally too big without rerunning (they look giant compared to our mono fonts even if the height is the same), and you cannot see all common chars entirely sometimes. rerunning scales the font down bug gives better results
21:42:00Unhelpful..you should look at how i did it, perhaps? ;)

21:44:44Unhelpfulbasically the height test is reworked from being a measuring of the font at a specific size to a way to calculate the correct size

21:46:43kugelUnhelpful: I see, won't that give smaller fonts?
21:47:14 Quit kushalone (Client Quit)
21:47:26Unhelpfulit will give you fonts that, including the vertical padding, are the height you requested. isn't that what we want?
21:47:34kugel(some of) our mono fonts are also cut off, and some glyphs aren't displayed correctly in favor of slightly bigger common glyphs

21:52:13Unhelpfulhrm, i'm pretty much satisfied with the results @ 16px. the only real problem is the garbage charters... wish i knew where those came from.
21:54:07kugelUnhelpful: see FS #9931

21:56:48Unhelpfulalso, if we're going to go a few steps larger or smaller to try to fit, and then just truncate, i can't see how that's much better than scale-to-fit. the amount truncated ends up depending on how correct the fonts ascent/descent values are.
21:57:11Unhelpfuladding a truncate option, or an option to align glyphs up or down, would be a better way to get larger glyphs

21:59:56niekieGreetings everyone. It seemed my MP3 player has died on me, and I'd like my next one to be RockBox compatible. Are there any players anyone would specifically recommend?

22:00:37 Quit bubsy ("I'll be back somewhere in time...")
22:00:42niekieI see Archos and iPods are supported. I saw an Archos player at the store today, though I'm not sure if it was one of the supported ones.
22:01:09gevaertsmost probably not
22:01:27niekieAlso, as Archos is listed as MP3 and WAV only, that's not what I'd really want.
22:01:41niekieSince most of my music collection is in free formats like .ogg and .flac
22:01:48Unhelpfulniekie: that's because the supported archos devices are *very* old ones with hardware decoding
22:02:24niekieYikes.
22:03:11niekieHardware decoding is bad.
22:03:14CtcpIgnored 4 channel CTCP requests in 0 seconds at the last flood
22:03:14*bluebrother wonders if we could sendfirm the bootloader on the H10 MTP
22:04:03pixelmathe "best" player for you is depending on what you want/need like recording, radio, screen etc. The BuyersGuide in the wiki gives an overview and might be a good start
22:04:21pixelmaor what you don't need ;)
22:04:59niekiepixelma: ah, many thanks, looking at it right now.

22:11:44T44i have a h340 and i think it supports just about everything that rockbox can do pretty well. its a big old chunky piece of hardware though. kids will laugh at you in the subway. :)
22:13:22niekieBetter than having your laptop out there and listening music that way ;-)
