#rockbox log for 2009-09-10

00:00:07rasherwell, you can do them, but you'd have to insert a blank line after it to get the effect you want
00:00:07pixelmarasher: this is *your* WPS and I could use the same argument against yours
00:00:10*domonoky1 suggest just normal inline comments with # (linefeed not eaten if it isnt a full comment line) and some other token to continue the line, like "\"
00:00:31domonoky1this also prevent current wps from breaking.
00:00:33rasherpixelma: You're going to claim widecabbie.wps is "too simple"?
00:01:13 Join truthtaco_ [0] (n=truthtac@adsl-74-12-230.aby.bellsouth.net)
00:01:17JdGordon|domonoky1: that would break current wps.. but yes thats my suggestion also..
00:01:23JdGordon|i tinhk
00:01:33gevaertsexcept for the \ :)
00:01:38rasherThis wouldn't exactly be the first time we have broken wpses, even in non-obvious ways
00:01:41JdGordon|% makes more sense for us
00:01:47pixelmarasher: no, but it's only one example
00:02:00rasherpixelma: You only need one example to disprove a negative.
00:02:11domonoky1JdGordon|: why would it break ? Are inline comments expected to eat newlines at moment ?
00:02:42JdGordon|yes
00:02:43rasherpixelma: you claimed, basically, that inline comments are useless and can't be used in real wpses. I've shown you a real wps where they could easily be used. Case closed.
00:02:46*domonoky1 thinks % strange, it look like a token without identifier..
00:02:47 Quit p3tur ("Zzzz")
00:03:33gevaertsdomonoky1: that's exactly why it's the best character for this
00:04:03rasherIt's already part of the WPS "language"
00:04:08rasherMakes sense to me
00:04:13JdGordon|it *is* the wps language
00:04:20 Part zzy
00:04:23gevaertsAll other characters would need some way of escaping them
00:04:39rasherOooh, very good point

00:06:06pixelmarasher: I just couldn't understand why you want to use them as for me they aren't easier to read but I didn't say they were "useless"
00:06:32pixelmaoh well
00:06:44domonoky1do inlined comments end at a continued lines ?
00:07:01JdGordon|?
00:07:24domonoky1ie if you break up a long line, and add comments to each section.
00:07:30rasherpixelma: Then I fail to understand your point, unless it's just "I wouldn't use inline comments"
00:07:44JdGordon|domonoky1: "onetwo#comment\nthree" is "onetwothree" as far as the tokeniser is concerned
00:07:52domonoky1%t0.1%?bc<%xdea|>; #first subline %
00:08:12rashershouldn't that be
00:08:18rasher%t0.1%?bc<%xdea|>; %#first subline %
00:08:24*rasher shrugs
00:08:37JdGordon|no the % before the # makes it a literal #

00:09:49*rasher maintains that the current parser is pants
00:09:58 Part zzy
00:10:12pixelmarasher: yes that was - which is why I didn't understand why the current behaviour needs changing (especially as I saw it as a downside having to know now that # after some WPS code is different to # on its own line)
00:10:18domonoky1maybe we should just introduce a new wps lanugage :-)
00:10:30rasherpixelma: Because someone else would like to use newline comments.

00:11:05JdGordon|magic! haha
00:11:09domonoky1yes, LUA wps, with selfcreated aninmations :-)
00:11:15pixelmathat's the programmer's point of view

00:11:46rasherWhat JdGordon| said.
00:11:56rasherSaying "oh that's just consistent" is the programmer's view
00:12:27pixelmabut how comments work in other languages is not the non-coder
00:12:33JdGordon|ok, so go back to domonoky1's suggestion... inline comments wont eat the \n if it ends with # maybe?
00:12:39pixelmaknowledge
00:12:41webguest73The current e200v1 build seems to be broken. Attempting to play from the file menu freezes. Going back to daily build 20090908 fixes it

00:13:13JdGordon|6 thumbs waaay up for webguest73~
00:13:30rasherpixelma: It's not even related to how it works in other languages. Eating \n is just magic unless you think the programmer way

00:16:12pixelmaI don't think I'm thinking the coder's way... I just think it's easier to just say "# always eats the newline" than "lines starting with # will ignore the newline, if you put the # after your WPS code the newline will not be ignored"
00:16:18 Quit parafin (Read error: 60 (Operation timed out))
00:16:32rasherpixelma: Just the fact that you're using the word "newline" shows you are thinking coder's way
00:16:50rasherThe ordinary user doesn't know of the newline at all
00:17:12rasherHe just sees "this is a comment that should get ignored"
00:17:17 Quit TruthTaco (Read error: 113 (No route to host))
00:17:28domonoky1users think like: i put a comment somwhere and it should just work :-)
00:17:50gevaertsApparently, there are just three themes on the theme site that use inline comments at all, with two of them in a way where it makes no difference whether the EOL is eaten
00:17:56*JdGordon| doesnt understand why people tink themers are regular users...
00:18:45rasherJdGordon|: I don't think themers necessarily understand the finer points of newlines
00:18:50pixelmaso, just because I have a certain word for it in a basically foreign language (because I don't know a different one) means I'm thinking the coder way? How else would I speak about it here?
00:18:58rasherProving this hypothesis shouldn't be hard
00:19:35rasherpixelma: I mean that the whole concept of the newline being a separate entity is something that most people don't think of
00:19:46gevaertsAnd the third looks a bit weird. '%ar%# %pp/%pe\n%ar%pt'
00:19:52domonoky1can we just stop the silly discussion, and return to making a sane wps language without breaking too much current wps ?
00:20:02pixelmagevaerts: that's not a comment
00:20:11pixelmathat's a displayed #
00:20:13gevaertspixelma: ah indeed. Well spotted

00:21:05gevaertsOK. So my conclusion is that exactly zero themes on the theme site depend on how inline comment end of lines are handled, so if we want, we can change their behaviour
00:21:07JdGordon|domonoky1: I dont tihnk the laguage is insane...

00:22:04 Join stripwax_ [0] (n=Miranda@87-194-34-169.bethere.co.uk)
00:22:09rasherJdGordon|: It *is* consistant. I'll give pixelma that much. But it shouldn't be when it breaks a use-case
00:22:09domonoky1nothing unexpected, the comment shouldnt change anything displayed.
00:22:14***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
00:22:23*gevaerts is now in favour of never eating line endings unless there is an "eat-line-ending" character present
00:22:40*domonoky1 is with gevaerts
00:22:42rashergevaerts: Line ends in #?
00:22:47pixelmagevaerts: then you change all the half-broken WPSs
00:22:59gevaertspixelma: there are none of them on the theme site
00:23:17domonoky1pixelma: there are no wps witch rely on this feature at moment..
00:23:34domonoky1so fixing them is easy :-)
00:23:35pixelmahuh, am I misunderstanding again?
00:23:35JdGordon|gevaerts: I agree... but opposite
00:23:44JdGordon|always eat unless there is a # at the end
00:24:23gevaertspixelma: no. I'm confused...

00:24:58*gevaerts does some new analysis
00:25:18pixelmathat's how I understood gevaerts' statement
00:25:37gevaertsplease ignore my recent statements for now. I'm working on a revised edition
00:25:54 Join kugel [0] (n=kugel@rockbox/developer/kugel)
00:25:57*domonoky1 thinks comment should act as their werent there. so full comments eat newlines, inline comments dont. add a new token to split long lines.
00:26:38*kugel thinks that a) comments should always eat \n and a special char would invert that, or b) comments never eat \n and a special char would invert that
00:27:05*kugel prefers b)
00:27:27JdGordon|domonoky1: thats what the patch did, but I dont like the 2nd part anymore... the reason to split the line should be to add a comment so we should just keep it as is
00:27:28*domonoky1 thinks b) breaks current wps
00:27:29kugelI can't make any sense of it that comments have different behavior depending on where they are
00:27:34pixelmaa is the current situation (without the inverting) and would need less changes
00:27:51pixelmaand what domonoky1 said
00:27:54rasherThen you get the "when do I need to add the X character to the end of my comments?" issue
00:28:02kugelso?
00:28:20domonoky1the behavior of comments should be to not do anything, eating newlines or not is just a implementation detail.
00:28:21rasherIt wouldn't be necessary if the language was sane :|
00:28:28kugelI don't think most themers never heard of the "newline problem".

00:29:26pixelmaforcing every third to update his WPS isn't nice

00:29:38kugellooking at abi, half of the themes were done by 2 people where one can code, and the other can photoshop
00:30:01Zagorisn't it better to add a "line continuation tag" to allow line-splitting instead of fidgeting with the comments?
00:30:05kugelpixelma: didn't gevaerts just conclude that 0 themes on the theme site need to change?
00:30:09pixelma(the "third" is just a guess but I think a lot use full line comments)
00:30:17*rasher is wary of using abi as an example of anything

00:30:38*domonoky1 is with zagor..
00:30:43pixelmakugel: he was confused and needed exami...
00:30:45*kugel is too
00:30:48ZagorJdGordon|: why?
00:31:06kugelI quite like "\"
00:31:23JdGordon|because the reason to split lines should be to add a comment, or make it easier to read... using the comment token is a good way to make themers think about writing something there
00:31:23rasherkugel: there's no good reason to use \ rather than %. And a good reason not to.
00:31:38*kugel isn't against % either
00:31:49pixelmaZagor: we already have that (by the means that # always eats newlines)
00:31:54gevaertsOK. No theme uses partial-line comments in a way that cares about whether or not they eat the \n, so changing those not to eat them (and leaving full-line comments unchanged) would not break anything
00:32:11Zagormixing tags is asking for trouble. don't add "features" to the comment tag
00:32:13*JdGordon| slaps gevaerts
00:32:17JdGordon|comments SHOULD eat the \n
00:32:21domonoky1JdGordon| but what would happen if you have just two lines of wps code with a inline comment at the end of the first.. they would get joined if we eat the newline there.
00:32:26kugelso we're basically free to change stuff? (ignoring other theme repos)
00:32:30rasherJdGordon|: not partial-line comments
00:32:40ZagorJdGordon|: possibly, but comments should not be the mechanism for line splitting
00:32:44rasherkugel: Weren't we always?
00:32:57JdGordon|Zagor: I can accept that
00:32:58rasherZagor: That's the current situation.
00:33:02gevaertsJdGordon|: I don't care what they should do. I'm trying to evaluate the cost of *all* options
00:33:07kugelrasher: 2-3 people are apparently caring about not braking themes here
00:33:10JdGordon|so how about always eat unless % is the last char of the line?
00:33:10Zagorrasher: that it is, or isn't?

00:34:06rasherkugel: If breaking a few themes (or many) is the cost of fixing a bug (I still regard this as a bug), I don't have any issue with that.
00:34:12pixelmayou wouldn't need to and I think it's not the question
00:34:21kugelimo comments should behave independantly of their position, and an *explicit* char should handle \n

00:34:39gevaertskugel: an explicit char handles \n. It's \n
00:34:57pixelmathose are two chars

00:36:00pixelmakugel: I'm definitely *against* changing the behaviour of full line comments
00:36:01gevaertsChanging the way full-line comments behave will break nearly all themes
00:36:18bughunter2TheSeven: ^ :D
00:36:38*domonoky1 is still with: comments on full lines act as they werent there (ie thy eat the newline), inline comments act as they werent there (ie they dont eat newlines) and add a new char for line joining :-)
00:36:50kugelpixelma, gevaerts: I'm ok with that
00:37:05gevaertskugel: it breaks them in a way that cannot be automatically detected
00:37:07*gevaerts is with domonoky1
00:37:09Zagordomonoky1: I agree
00:37:10TheSevenbughunter2: it just crashed?
00:37:16bughunter2no I fixed it ;)
00:37:31bughunter2the OF hung when rebooting
00:37:37bughunter2instead of saying "Not enough free space to create database"
00:37:38bughunter2hehe
00:37:43gevaertskugel: so you're basically saying we should just purge the theme site
00:37:54JdGordon|sounds like a good idea!
00:37:55kugelgevaerts: read my 2 suggestions
00:37:56bughunter2bought a set of micro screw drivers to fix the player (I anticipated this happening, luckily)
00:38:19TheSevenbughunter2: you need to OPEN that thing to fix a fs-level issue!?
00:38:23JdGordon|domonoky1: I can live with that.... but then you have to ask, why not allow comments to be closed with a # also then?
00:38:25domonoky1if we really want to make such a incompatilbe change, we should take the chance and make a new wps language :-)
00:38:29*kugel isn't with domonoky1, but that topic doesn't touch me enough anyway
00:38:31bughunter2TheSeven: yes, RB doesn't have a native USB driver for this player yet

00:39:17kugel"kugel thinks that a) comments should always eat \n and a special char would invert that, or b) comments never eat \n and a special char would invert that"
00:39:23gevaertsthanks
00:39:23JdGordon|#% is going to look totally fucked thoguh!
00:39:36TheSevenbughunter2: I won't buy a player where you need to void warranty in order to fix such a thing
00:39:53bughunter2TheSeven: they can't know whether the warranty was voided
00:40:06pixelmaJdGordon|: would that be a new inline comment marker (sorry I missed the first mention of this)
00:40:11bughunter2anyway, DRM is disabled after installing RB, for yet unknown reasons, so by that they might be able to detect it, though
00:40:23TheSevenwell, opening it is also always another bricking risk
00:40:24bughunter2TheSeven: btw, it might have happened with your ipod as well
00:40:28gevaertskugel: as far as I'm concerned, (b) is out because of breaking everything. (a) would work, but I think it's ugly
00:40:31bughunter2depends :)
00:40:52JdGordon|pixelma: no that would be something like this line..... "%ia #some comment but dont end the line #%"!
00:40:53TheSevenbughunter2: there is no way we know of putting an ipod in such a borked state
00:41:00bughunter2I'm sure I could help :D
00:41:20bughunter2making drivers go nuts is dangerous ;)
00:41:23domonoky1kugel: this would also mean comments act different on where they are placed regaring the produced wps..
00:41:28ZagorJdGordon|: sure, but why add the complexity? just add the line-continue tag before the comment
00:41:37TheSevenyou would at least to either mess up the FTL entirely in a manner that locks up FTL code (which I don't htink is possible) or you need to damage the NOR flash contents while keeping the checksum intact
00:42:11gevaertsZagor: won't that complicate the parser
00:42:11TheSevennothing else can put an ipod into a non-recoverable (via key combos + usb) state
00:42:11gevaerts?
00:42:14JdGordon|Zagor: thats even more dangerous.... "%# this is a comment" would get displayed!
00:42:27Zagorcan we use %\ ?
00:42:28TheSevenbughunter2: we should move this discussion to -community, though, i think

00:44:48domonoky1so we could use "... %\ # comment" to have a joined lined with a comment at the end.
00:45:13gevaertsI'd just go for %\ being a "joined-line comment" then
00:45:33JdGordon|ah, from a code POV it will be difficult to work if the join-line token is not right before the \n
00:45:37gevaertsor rather a non-joined-line comment, so # keeps its current meaning
00:45:46 Quit Strife89 (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
00:45:47Zagorgevaerts: no. separate line-joining and comments. even if it technically could act as it. but don't document that!
00:45:47domonoky1kugel: in your ways it would modifiy the linejoining depending on comment position.
00:46:01JdGordon|also, control stuff should be 1 char... not two
00:46:33kugeldomonoky1: I still don't understand
00:46:53Zagorwe only have a single comment char: # the %\ tag is strictly for line joining. don't drag our themers into this confused debate :)
00:47:00 Join stripwax [0] (n=Miranda@87-194-34-169.bethere.co.uk)
00:47:37gevaertsZagor: ok. That keeps the problem of compatibility though
00:47:44JdGordon|I think % by itself is a better line joiner than \ and definetly %\
00:47:57JdGordon|but it wont work right before comments :(
00:47:57gevaertsWhich you solve by using a non-join character
00:47:58domonoky1kugel: a) would mean you have to place a newline-eating char at full comments, but not on inline comments. b) the otherway round.

00:48:17Zagorgevaerts: what compatibility?
00:48:21rasherIf the end result is (what we "agree" is) more sane, then I don't see breaking compatibility as a big problem.
00:48:30pixelmadomonoky1: no. that's not what he meant (I think)
00:48:50kugeldomonoky1: depends on what you want (you want different things if you use different comment styles). the comments would behave the same
00:49:14gevaertsZagor: currently all comments join lines implicitely. Changing that is tricky, because it's impossible to look at a file and decide which behaviour it wants, so you can't autoconvert
00:49:39Zagorgevaerts: you're thinking in code. stop it! :-)
00:49:55*domonoky1 just wants that comments dont change anything, and i also dont want to use a different notation beween full comments and inline comments.
00:50:16*gevaerts doesn't mind wps changes that break themes in a way that they stop loading, but he does mind changes that break themes by subtly changing their effect
00:50:17Zagorgevaerts: I still want full-line comments to be ignored completely, just like domonoky1 said
00:50:30Zagorjust don't think of it as line joining
00:50:49gevaertsZagor: ok. So you want domonoky1's proposal plus a continuation character for partial-line comments?
00:50:57Zagoryes
00:51:02pixelmaZagor: the problem is if you change # to not eat the newline even for full-line comments, every WPS that uses full-line comments will have displaced lines
00:51:10domonoky1ignoring a full-line comment completly doesnt count as line-joining from the users-perspective.
00:51:27Zagorpixelma: I just said I *do* want full-line comments to be completely ignored (the whole line).
00:51:53gevaertsI agree that this is the most sensible thing to do
00:51:57ZagorI refuse to mix comments and line joining, conceptually. it will only end in massive confusion
00:52:14pixelmadomonoky1: might be important to mention in this discussion here - proof: I misunderstood Zagor
00:52:48*domonoky1 thinks there is many missunderstandments here, and we all want the same :-)
00:53:22pixelmaZagor: but you have to if you make differences between full-line and inline comments
00:53:28*gevaerts wants to get rid of wps files and get javascript+css instead :)
00:53:50*domonoky1 slaps gevaerts
00:54:21gevaertspixelma: not really. You strip away the comment, and if there's something left on the line the line counts, if there's nothing left, the line is fully ignored
00:54:33 Join thegeek [0] (n=nnscript@s243b.studby.ntnu.no)
00:54:35Zagorpixelma: not really. all comments are deleted by the parser. if there is anything left on the line after that, it is treated as a line.
00:55:15pixelmaand what about blank lines on purpose?
00:55:23JdGordon|gevaerts: but thats what we are arguong about.. what ends the comment? the \n of the char before \n?
00:55:31Zagorpixelma: " # this line is intentionally blank"

00:59:23gevaertsit's definitely used
00:59:44 Nick truthtaco_ is now known as TruthTaco (n=truthtac@adsl-74-12-230.aby.bellsouth.net)
00:59:51ZagorJdGordon|: why should comments be endable? do you really want to put tags *after* a comment?
01:00
01:00:25JdGordon|no, but thats exactly how you would have to use the joiner tag if you wanted a comment also (unless you want to make the parser more complicated)
01:00:47Zagorhuh? why not %\ # comment
01:00:55kugelgah
01:01:01*JdGordon| agrees with kugel :p
01:01:08Zagorwhat's wrong?
01:01:10kugelcan't we just have c-style, or even c++ style comments?
01:01:17 Part TruthTaco ("Leaving")
01:01:27JdGordon|OK... how about ## doesnt eat the line # does though!
01:01:37pixelmakugel: how does that solve the newline issue?
01:01:59gevaertsJdGordon|: 25 themes from the theme site have '##'
01:02:00kugelc-style need to be closed explicitely
01:02:15JdGordon|shuush kugel
01:02:23Zagorwhy do you want to require %\ to be last on the line?
01:02:35JdGordon|purely from a code P.O.V
01:02:43 Quit stripwax_ (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
01:02:46JdGordon|the parser is dead simple
01:02:56ZagorJdGordon|: %\ = ignore rest of line, including newline
01:02:58*gevaerts thinks that continuation lines should be done by starting the continuing line with a backspace character
01:02:59JdGordon|I also dont agree that %\ is a good joiner
01:03:19ZagorI have no opinion about which tag to use
01:03:38JdGordon|gevaerts: that will be a total mess to implement
01:04:05gevaertsJdGordon|: yes, but that's nicely balanced by also being a pain for the theme authors :)
01:04:17JdGordon|EXCELLANT!
01:05:27JdGordon|there is some logic to using ^ to say "join onto the previous line" though
01:05:40gevaertsDo people actually want continuation lines combined with end of line comments?
01:06:00JdGordon|thats the best time to use them
01:06:31Zagorgevaerts: I though that was the big point of splitting lines?
01:07:30 Quit KBH ()
01:07:43gevaertsit's the big point of splitting lines, sure (except in some of my experimental wpses that have 500-character lines...), but splitting lines are not the only reason for end-of-line comments
01:08:31Zagorof course
01:08:49Zagorhence my insistance that we don't mix the two functions
01:10:06JdGordon|you know what... screw it... we should use % to tell it to ignore the \n, and just hope themers are smart enough to put a space between it and #
01:10:22PaulJamkugel: did you notice that your custom SB patch is broken with the current SVN revision?
01:10:38pixelmaif you transfer kugel's c reference to WPS - you could see the /* as the # and you would only need a */ equivalent for someone who wants inline comments, no?

01:11:30gevaertsJdGordon|: so '<whatever valid wps code> % #comment' for continuation?
01:11:41JdGordon|yeah
01:11:43rasherpixelma: it's not a good comparison, since blank lines in C don't have any significance
01:12:02kugelwe could also say the current situation isn't bad, and tell everyone to insert a blank line who wants inline comments which doesn't eat newlines?
01:12:18JdGordon|NO!
01:12:38gevaertsJdGordon|: that would only break for new themes if people aren't careful, and I'd expect people to look at the wps screen before uploading, so I think that's fine
01:12:44pixelmawell, just thought it would be an easier solution - maybe I shouldn't have drawn the analogy
01:13:17JdGordon|we could do %* blaaaa *% though :p
01:14:17JdGordon|I tinhk that is actually more understandable than an extra line joiner tag
01:14:46JdGordon|nice and easy to implement also
01:14:49Zagorhow does that do away with the line joiner tag?
01:14:56*gevaerts thinks that JdGordon|'s '% #' proposal is fine. It doesn't fully meet Zagor's wish for total independence of comments and continuation handling, but it seems impossible to meet that while keeping compatibility
01:15:28JdGordon|no more ambiguity over what comments do # is the rest of the line, %* *% is everything between them
01:15:32JdGordon|it also allows you to comment out blocks
01:15:37*kugel thought compatibility isn't an issue?
01:16:07ZagorJdGordon|: so you're commenting out the newlines? hmm...
01:16:46JdGordon|you're commenting out everything....

01:40:13kugelah, but I just see CustomWPS does tell about it, I'm apparently blind
01:40:54pixelmawell you load it in a way of "do something with it now and be done with it" or "load it but let's use it later"

03:40:22kugelso, starting with a vp is a bad idea
03:41:25kugelI'm thinking num_tokens should start with 1. if even an empty line increases it
03:42:22kugelit doesn't crash if I do that
03:43:05JdGordonthat will cause other problems
03:43:10kugelor, it could also be changed to increase num_tokens before parsing

05:36:40JohnTeddyIf I have playlists on rhythmbox, is it easy to make a playlist on rockbox the same?
05:42:12n1srockbox uses m3u playlists, so if rythmbox can create those it should be pretty easy
05:45:11JohnTeddyn1s: yes, It can save m3u playlists. but the directories for my playlist is stuff on my laptop hard disk, I don't have playlists for the directory structure on my rockbox
05:45:49JohnTeddyI could mimick it though, and make symbolic links. Does rockbox fs support symbolic links?
05:46:01JohnTeddySo do like /home/johnteddy/Music/.
05:46:06n1sno, rockbox uses FAT
05:46:25JohnTeddyAre there shortcuts of any kind?
05:46:53JohnTeddyotherwise everytime I have to play my music, I have two directories to click into. /home/johntedy
05:47:48 Quit Horscht ("Verlassend")
05:48:00n1sthere are shortcuts of one kind, implemented using some plugin but IIRC they don't do what you want, an m3u can use relative paths though so if you manage to get rythmbox to save it like that and uses the same dir structure on your DAP it shoukd work i think
05:48:27JohnTeddyactually whatever, it's easy to modify
05:48:41JohnTeddygedit can just change all '/home/johnteddy' to '', in one second
05:48:45JohnTeddyand save the file
05:48:50n1ssure
05:51:32JohnTeddyI just put the m3u anywhere?
05:51:41JohnTeddyI can make like a 'playlists' directory or something?
05:52:47n1syes and no :) it depends on how it is created... if the paths are relative it has to be in the right place, if they are absolute (which i guess yours are) you can put it anywhere

06:10:57scorchethere is a port in development, but it is not near up to the usable level
06:11:17Andymaybe I'm mistaken but isn't it the most popular next to the ipod?

07:18:42pixelmaJdGordon (kugel): I don't see a "C" now, but I preload album art at a position of x=1 and y=1 but don't show it in a viewport that's in the upper right corner of the screen. This worked without any glitches before, now if album art should be shown, parts of the screen get blanked ou. It looks like an area the size of my album art and position x=1, y=1 of the screen is affected, not everything vanishes though - dynamic bitmaps are still drawn (a
07:18:42pixelma satic one is affected), everything of the textual info (partially from tags) vanishes except the time info (current playtime and length of the track)

10:02:42pcc1yes, I saw that
10:03:00pamauryI've still not checked date work correctly because mtpfs does not retrieve date and times. PErhaps there is anoter mtpfs implementation that does it
10:05:35pcc1so mtpfs uses the date/times in ObjectInfo? or not at all?
10:05:49pcc1(I've been testing with gphoto2)
10:07:37pamauryNot at all as far as I could see it. Basically, all dates are set to 1970, ... It's possible that it is a bug in my implementation and that the objets properties regarding date/time are buggy but as I'm sure they work for size, I would be strange

12:46:45LloreanGodEater__: Off of the statement in -community, I actually wonder why "autorock" is still a define, and not simply an option in the "startup screen" choices.
12:47:04GodEater__good point
12:47:07LloreanI seem to recall it's not normally defined so as to skip looking for that file and slowing bootup, but now that there's a start-screen choice, it kinda makes sense to have it as an option, and drop the define.
12:47:18GodEater__indeed
12:47:37GodEater__I'd use my new found commit powers to change it, only I have of course no access to svn during the day, and I'll have forgotten by tea time ;)
12:47:40LloreanEspecially now that we have one plugin that could realistically be a useful startup

13:19:52Torneyou can just set the start screen back to main menu
13:20:07amiconnHmm, yes
13:20:09Tornethere's no technical reason to need to clear the autorock setting

20:32:16kugelamiconn: I just had the (small?) problem that under my gcc 4.4.1 setup (see -dev ml) doom was linking gcc-support from the plugin lib. that resulted in 2 memcpy versions (doom has it's own wrapper for rb->memcpy). That doesn't happen under 4.0.3
20:32:33kugelremoving the wrapper from doom obviously solved the problem
20:33:18kugelthat was the only thing I needed to change in the source for gcc 4.4.1
20:33:18kugelI only build for arm
20:33:39amiconnWell if that actually *works*, it should be done in svn too imo
20:36:18kugelI didn't run doom, nor applied that change to SVN doom for building with 4.0.3, but the wrapper is the same
20:37:04kugelI was just wondering how that happened, why doom links that under 4.4.1
20:37:48amiconnThat's probably due to linking order
20:38:12amiconnI think this wrapper in doom is an oversight from before the "automatic" wrappers

21:02:08drakonikI have a question about how Rockbox's database scanning works.
21:02:25drakonikWhen the db scanner is working, it finds a new file, and adds it to some kind of queue that gets processed on the next bootup.
21:03:23drakonikOr rather, on shutdown or completion of the ENTIRE scan, it adds the files to the commit queue.
21:03:53drakonikI want to change it so that each file gets added to the queue after it's found. What kind of slowdown would I see? Would it be a horrible horrible idea?
21:06:12bertrikkugel, nice job on the gcc comparison
21:07:01bertrikdo newer gcc's still need to be patched like our current dev setup?

21:25:44robin0800JdGordon: i've got "patch: **** Only garbage was found in the patch input"
21:26:33Slasheridrakonik: what do you mean with that? each file _is_ added to the queue, or actually a temp file after it's found
21:27:00kugelrobin0800: that's because JdGordon can't learn to not post patches at pastebin.com
21:27:47drakonikSlasheri: I'm just inferring what I can. See, for whatever reason, the scanner crashes my ipod at random points, and NO files are added. So I'm assuming that the files are added to the db-commit-queue when the scan is completed or on sane shutdown of the ipod.
21:28:11robin0800kugel: Was it for me anyway?
21:28:23drakonikSo, I want to change the scan process to add a file to the commit queue as each file is succesfully scanned.
21:28:34 Quit TopyMobile_ (Success)
21:28:47drakonikThat way, even if it crashes, on next bootup, it will be able to commit the files it DID manage to scan to the DB.
21:29:10Slasheridrakonik: ah, actually the temp file will be appended after each file is found
21:29:32 Quit kugel (Remote closed the connection)
21:29:32Slasheribut that file probably gets corrupted until it's closed properly (when the entire scan finishes)
21:29:36drakonikHm.
21:29:40drakonikOkay.
21:29:46drakonikI understand now.
21:30:19drakonikSo I just need to figure out how to safely close (and presumably reopen) the file for each individual file scan.
21:30:19drakonik=\
21:30:34Slasherianyway, you might try to look at the end of the file with a hexedit to get a clue
21:30:46drakonikProbably won't be very fast, but it'll work.
21:30:49drakonikWhere's the file?

21:31:46drakonikHm.
21:31:50drakonikNo such file.
21:31:52Slasheriit's a binary file
21:33:02drakonikLet's see if I can MAKE it by initializing my DB
21:33:22Slasheriyou have to look for it immediately after the crash. otherwise that file will vanish
21:33:27drakonikright
21:33:35drakonikworkin' on it
21:33:58Slasheriand by using the bootloader disk mode (before rockbox boots up and removes the file)
21:34:16drakonikAha
21:34:39drakonikIs there an upperlimit on how many files the scanner can handle, maybe?
21:35:03Slasherinot any absolute limit
21:35:28drakonikI've used the simulator, and when I tried to scan my DB, in the db scan debug screen, it mentioned something about too many items or something. tbh, it's been maybe six months since I actually did it so I can't remember precisely what it said.
21:35:33Slashericrashes during database scan are most likely caused by a bad file (or bad tags)
21:35:42drakonikSee, I thought that
21:35:48drakonikBut I eliminated that.
21:36:05drakonikUnfortunately.
21:36:05Slasherihow did you eliminate that?
21:36:25drakonikBreaking down my music collection. Taking half of it out of the scan, seeing if it still crashed,
21:36:46drakonikAnd halving each half
21:37:04Slasheriand finally having just a single file and still a crash?
21:37:44drakonikThat was the problem. I used the db scanner debug window, and made note of what file caused the crash. And it's completely random.
21:37:46Slasherithen i would suggest checking the file system for errors
21:37:50drakonikI have.
21:38:06Slasheriokay, that's bad
21:38:10drakonikYeah
21:38:18drakonikSomeone sugested that it was a hardware problem.
21:38:20Slasherimight be something wrong with you hardware, cpu, memory and so on
21:38:22drakonikAnd I understand why.
21:38:48drakonikBut I'm inclined to believe that if there were hardware issues, my ipod wouldn't work flawlessly, the way it has until I started trying to use rockbox.
21:38:50Slasheriindeed, i would thought a hardware problem also if the crashing is completely random
21:39:49drakonikkay, database_tmp.tcd is 0kb
21:40:01drakonikI realy don't think I even need to bother opening it.

21:42:45domonokynvram.bin is just a file to store some settings, nothing todo with database.
21:42:46 Part Grahack
21:42:49pixelmawell, e.g. Rockbox only supports only the "native" tagging format which is ID3 for mp3, some PC programs allow Ape tags too
21:42:52drakonikOkay.
21:42:57drakonikAh.
21:43:03drakonikNope. IDv3 all the way
21:43:15domonokythe 0kb database_tmp file is probably because the file wasnt closed correctly at the crash.
21:43:22drakonikRight.

22:08:25bertrikbughunter2, can you handle a source code patch or do you need a binary?
22:08:43bughunter2atm. a binary would be best (sorry for the inconvenience)
22:09:33AsaelReiterbetrik: will a test on Clip help you?
22:09:51bertrikAsaelReiter, no
22:10:11drakonikOkay. I'm not seeing anything that resembles a "close temp db file" in this function. =\
22:10:33drakonikI see where I should put it. But I don't know where the file is being opened or where it's being closed.
22:10:49domonokydrakonik: you wont find one there. its done at the place where this function is called.
22:10:56drakonikI am looking there.
22:11:13drakonikI admit, my C-fu is pretty weak, so I might just be missing it.
22:11:20drakonikaround line 4170
22:11:38domonokydrakonik: but you could also try to enable the logging (ifdef for sim at moment) to find out more.
22:11:48drakonikAlright.

22:12:35drakonikWait. This just write the file being scanned, doesn't it?
22:13:05domonokydrakonik: yes, so you can findout where it fails.
22:13:15drakonikAh
22:13:21domonokytagcache_build() contains the opening and closing of the temp file.
22:13:22drakonikYeah.
22:13:32drakonikThis is pretty useless. I've used that logger before.
22:13:44drakonikAnd it never stops at a consistent file.
22:14:21 Quit stoffel (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
22:14:27domonokyif it stops, does it completly crash, or what does exactly happen ?
22:14:38bertrikbughunter2, this is the binary http://filebin.ca/amkevz/rockbox.sansa
22:14:40drakonikMy ipod screen flashes white and then powers down completely.
22:15:14bughunter2bertrik: what should I look out for?
22:15:36drakonikInteresting, but unrelated, is the fact that when it reboots, evne if the battery indicator showed 100% charge before the crash, after the crash, it invariably shows 0 charge and very quickly shuts itself down.
22:16:07domonokydrakonik: and it also crashes with only one file ?
22:16:40drakonikI never quite got it down to that point.
22:16:51bughunter2bertrik: anyway, it runs...
22:17:01drakonikBecause of that battery issue, I'd have to charge it for an hour or two after a crash.
22:18:26*domonoky wonders why the battery would be emtpy from scanning only a few files. sounds strange.

22:24:07Slasheridrakonik: hmm, maybe the battery is finished? the db scanning is very hard for the battery
22:24:24drakonikI really doubt it
22:24:29drakonikIt's got fine battery life
22:24:46 Quit AsaelReiter ("CGI:IRC")
22:24:46drakonikBut it's possible
22:24:48drakonikI dunno man.
22:27:18drakonikSo if I understand this code...tagcache_build() is called on bootup or when a scan is completed. And I guess the argument is where to find the database_tcd.tmp file...
22:28:35domonokyno tagcache_build scans for files, the parameter is the startdir..
22:28:38Slasheridrakonik: the argument tells from what directory to start scanning
22:28:40drakonikAha
22:28:52drakonikJust shows how bad my C is.
22:28:54drakonikAlrighty.
22:29:13domonokyit may also commit the changes. but that depends on different things..
22:29:38Slasheritagcache_build will create the temp file, and when it's proper time, also commit that file into a database
22:30:06domonokyits tagcache_build() -> check_dir() -> add_tagcache() for the scanning process.
22:30:17drakonikGot it.
22:31:15bughunter2bertrik: still there?
22:35:53drakonikWelp,this is pretty much beyond my ken.

22:48:23bertrikjust see if the buttons/wheel still work
22:48:27bughunter2they do
22:49:13bughunter2btw, when I said scrolling really really fast didn't work too well, that's when I put the player on my desk and gave the wheel a quick spin
