#rockbox log for 2009-12-17

00:00:33YoYoFreakCJbut I think that even a quick formatting goes so far to change the byte sector formatting accordingly
00:01:16gevaertsThe problem is that the disk itself doesn't tell you which sector size to use, and neither does the MBR, so you have to guess, and rockbox tries 512 bytes first. If there happens to be a valid FAT32 boot sector at that offset, rockbox tries that one first
00:01:48gevaertsAnd this offset is still far enough on the disk not to be overwritten by itunes
00:02:41gevaertsthe easiest solution for this is to fully wipe the firmware partition (or the entire disk, but that will take ages), and then restore using itunes again
00:02:45YoYoFreakCJso a firmware recoverz bz iTunes might not fix it_ is that what zou|re sazing_
00:02:56gevaertsexactly
00:03:08gevaertsif at least this is what happened
00:03:12YoYoFreakCJwoopsy sorry
00:03:48YoYoFreakCJI only see the one big "FREAKPOD" drive in my workstation. until a few minutes ago I didnt even know that there is a firmware partition "^^
00:04:58*gevaerts thinks
00:05:45YoYoFreakCJeven in the administration management thingy in the control panel I dont see any other partitions. is there a way to format it using windows?
00:06:05***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
00:06:10gevaertsprobably. I don't know much about windows...
00:06:26YoYoFreakCJwhen I get home I plan on using DBAN on it. if that doesnt kick it, I don't know how to find that partition
00:06:55gevaertsoh, if I'm right, dban will definitely fix it for you
00:07:16YoYoFreakCJsounds good :3
00:07:42YoYoFreakCJI guess Ill be cleaning up and going home then to try it out
00:07:50*gevaerts thinks that rockbox should be more robust against this case, but he can't think of a good way to achieve that
00:08:23YoYoFreakCJisnt there a way to determine the sector size and act accordingly?
00:09:16notlisteningis there a way to query the disc about that information?
00:09:44gevaertsnotlistening: the disk *always* uses 512 byte sectors. It's a purely software thing
00:10:01notlisteningoh ok :P
00:10:20notlisteningteach me to come in half way trough
00:10:28gevaertsthere are two ways. One is to look at the FAT bootsector, but that's a bit chicken-and-egg because you need to know the sector size to find that bootsector (this is what rockbox does, by trying 512, 1024 and 2048)
00:11:34gevaertsThe other way would be to look at all partitions and at the total disk size, and then pick the sector size that matches best. That would break if you don't use all disk space for partitions though (and there are some reasons for doing that)
00:12:14gevaertsOr we could change the bootloader to try the next size if it finds a FAT but no files, but that requires some pretty invasive work...
00:12:52YoYoFreakCJanyways, I'm going home now and try DBAN on it. thanks for the explanations so far
00:13:14YoYoFreakCJbyebye :)
00:13:45gevaertsnotlistening: basically, the 5.5G uses 2048 byte sectors because the 80GB variant of it uses a disk that can't handle single-sector transfers, so the minimum transfer size is 1024 bytes, so using FAT with 512 byte sectors would not work well. I don't know why they then went to 2048 bytes though

00:14:10gevaertsnotlistening: over USB, the disk appears as 2048-byte sectors, so host OSes don't have this problem
00:14:11notlisteningi know there are not to many users of speech but if the svn version is out of sync with the build version and you generate the voixe file using rbutil o seem to get problem with the voicing on the menu system
00:14:55linuxstbgevaerts: What about on the 80GB ipod - can/do we detect that feature of the disk?
00:15:23*linuxstb also wonders if the hwrevision (stored in a fixed location in flash ROM) could give a clue
00:15:37gevaertslinuxstb: no, it's all handled in the same way. However, since that one doesn't handle 512 byte transfers, I don't think you can actually format it wrong
00:16:22linuxstbgevaerts: Isn't it possible for a host OS to work around that?

00:39:18gevaertsok, they also try all of them until they find one, except that they start at 2048
00:40:59linuxstbgevaerts: Could the case of other disks be handled by querying the disk's capabilities? Do you know anything about the changes in the unofficial "big disk" build that means it's not in svn?
00:41:01gevaertsThat's also not 100% foolproof unfortunately. I suspect it's vulnerable to the same remains-of-old-filesystem problem, as well as a filesystem image that happens to be at the right place
00:41:34gevaertslinuxstb: I don't know the details. That's actually the main reason I'm hesitant
00:42:21linuxstbCurrent SVN doesn't appear to support those disks anyway, so we're not breaking anything...
00:43:27gevaertshm, in extreme cases (or weird coincidences), trying 2048->1024->512 can also break with real valid filesystems, if you use exactly the right partition layout and multiple FAT partitions

06:43:37Tekno_CowboyHello, I have an iPod Video 5.5G, and I'm wondering if it's possible to use the themed USB mode that shows immediately after plugging in the USB cable. I have yet to find a setting that will prevent my ipod from rebooting into the black and white disk mode.

07:19:17Unhelpful"themed usb mode"?
07:21:21Tekno_CowboyWhen I first plug in the USB cable, a USB cable appears on the screen with the current theme applied. It then reboots into a very basic monochrome disk mode. I'd prefer to use the one that doesn't require a reboot.
07:22:01UnhelpfulTekno_Cowboy: what version or revision are you using?
07:23:29Tekno_CowboyI'm using version 3.4, I'm not sure what revision.
07:25:27amiconngevaerts, linuxstb: Current svn doesn't support those 4096-byte sectored disks, but I consider this a bug
07:26:29amiconnIt's because our code simply assumes it has to use the disk's sector size, instead of probing whether the disk handles split sectors
07:26:55Unhelpfulhrm, is usb enabled on ipod 5.5G in 3.4? MajorChanges seems to say that pretty much everything has rockbox usb enabled in 3.4, but i seem to recall otherwise :/
07:27:18amiconnThose 4096-byte sector disks do proper split sector handling, only the original 80GB G5.5 hdd doesn't
07:28:09Unhelpfulah, 5.5G is not among the PP chips mentioned in that list according to DeviceChart...
07:29:15amiconnSo in order to use such a disk, one can either *disable* large disk sector support in rockbox, or increase the limit to 4096 bytes. The former method yeilds better performance iirc
07:29:42Tekno_CowboyI see. That's too bad. Hopefully a future version will support it. Might I ask where you found the chart? I looked all over for it before trying IRC, with no luck.
07:29:43UnhelpfulTekno_Cowboy: it looks to me as though USB is not supported on your device in 3.4, although i'm not absolutely certain. have you tried a current build instead of the 3.4 release?
07:30:26 Quit Horschti (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
07:30:28Tekno_CowboyI have not tried a current build yet. How stable do the current builds tend to be?
07:30:36UnhelpfulTekno_Cowboy: the info i'm going by is here: http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/MajorChanges and here: http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/DeviceChart but i should point out that neither list is absolutely exhaustive.

07:32:08UnhelpfulTekno_Cowboy: they're generally safe unless something broken has just been committed, and we try not to commit broken things and to fix them reasonably quickly. i've never had a release version installed on my devices, and they've pretty much only broken due to things i had changed myself.
07:35:04Tekno_CowboyI'll try the current build and see what happens. If it doesn't work out, I can always revert to 3.4 and wait for the next release. Thanks for all yor help!

09:12:29JdGordonGodEater: I really dont like the idea of playback.c being compiled for hwcodec...
09:12:54JdGordonthe better solution is to move that new code to another file all together, or duplicate it in mpeg.c
09:13:26GodEaterwhich I believe is what pondlife said he'd do over a year ago and never did :)
09:13:26JdGordonespecially when its 2 speerate code paths anyway
09:14:47*JdGordon is usually not one to object to a feature... but this one needs more work...
09:16:04JdGordonit could be cleaned up a fair bit.. the events arnt needed... they were only there because when it was first done mpeg.c was in firmware where events were required for it to work
09:16:20*GodEater would welcome help on it.
09:17:11*JdGordon will have a quick play
09:20:41JdGordonactually.. no I guess thats fine
09:20:54JdGordonbut the code for the event should be in playlist.c or a new file

09:23:10JdGordoncould be worse...
09:23:13GodEateryep, but I didn't copy it!
09:30:57JdGordonhmm.. does that patch work in the sim?
09:32:08GodEaterit *compiles* into the sim, but I've not tested it. LinusN says there's a noticeable lag.
09:32:16GodEaterbut as he says, "who cares"? :)
09:32:27JdGordonit needs to work in the sim..
09:32:38JdGordonand it shouldnt lag.. the wps can pause fine
09:32:48GodEaterin that case it probably needs a lot more work to find out why it lags
09:33:09GodEaterand I'm not an expert by any means in the difference between the sound code in the sim vs. real rockbox
09:34:46JdGordonin swcodec.. there is no difference untill the pcm is ready to be dumped i think
09:35:37GodEaterI've basically got not time left to look at it this week. Have too much paid work to do :(

13:49:50linuxstbfml: From a consistency point of view, it's probably easier to always have a full stop. Otherwise, you leave it to the author's judgement to decide if a sentence is "full" or not.
13:49:57fmllinuxstb: there are some cases where a full stop would be needed because there are some additions to the action description. And that should be separated somehow.
13:55:12GodEaterA semi colon.
13:55:19GodEaterit's underused in written english!
13:55:29GodEaterI think we should make it our mission to remedy that.

14:58:31Jonathan__Hey, I'm thinking about installing rockbox for my Fuze V1, what are the chances of it messing up and destroying my player?
15:00
15:00:08Jonathan__and also, if the firmware does mess up, are there ANY chances of reinstalling the old firmware and being able to use it again?
15:00:13Zabawell, it's not a bomb, so the odds are that it lacks proper circuity to explode anyway.
15:00:24Jonathan__lol... j
15:00:41Jonathan__um, it can still brick my player though... right?
15:01:05krazykitif you follow the instructions for installation it's very unlikely that it will brick your player
15:01:24krazykithowever, there's no recovery mechanism like the e200 series
15:01:54Jonathan__if I do a duel boot and the firmware does mess up... can I still boot into the old one?

15:04:23Jonathan__if I do a duel boot and the firmware does mess up... can I still boot into the old one?
15:04:57krazykitit's already set as a dual-boot. so no, if it gets bricked, it's now a crummy paperweight
15:05:01linuxstbIn theory yet - the dual boot feature is very reliable (but we offer no guarantees).
15:05:07linuxstbs/yet/yes/
15:05:23Jonathan__hmm, conflicting answers...
15:05:38Zabain short, if the bootloader doesn't get messed up, you should be fine..
15:05:45*linuxstb doesn't understand krazykit's answer
15:06:06Jonathan__if I get it installed and it's working, is there a chance its going to die later?
15:06:09krazykiti should clarify. if the bootloader installation gets messed up, then you're in trouble
15:06:13Jonathan__or is it mostly during the install process
15:06:16Jonathan__ok, thanks
15:06:28CIA-6New commit by mcuelenaere (r24044): Only do BACKLIGHT_FADING_SW_SETTING in simulator (fixes red)
15:06:46linuxstbJonathan__: Short answer is that 100s (possibly 1000s) of people have installed Rockbox on a fuze without problems, and we've designed it to be as safe as we can, but we don't guarantee anything.
15:07:06krazykitif a certain revision of rockbox doesn't work, you can easily boot into the original firmware and unzip a working build over it without issue
15:07:16Jonathan__ok, thanks guys
15:07:30Jonathan__I just don't have the money to replace it right now lol
15:08:21Jonathan__I suppose I will try it then. one more question. How big is it installed? I only have a 2GB mp3 player... will it fit ok?
15:09:51krazykitit's only a couple MB, so it'll fit no problem

18:13:03pixelmatomers: also be careful - not all touchscreen devices also have additional physical buttons
18:13:05tomerslinuxstb: Regarding the link you gave, shouldn't the slash have to be spaced? i.e. '\X{} / \Y', not just '\X{}/\Y' or even '\X{}\ \Y'?
18:13:39fmltomers: even better, use ButtonA~/ButtonB, i.e. a ~ instead of space before the /. This will prevent a line break before / which looks strangely in tables.
18:13:40tomerspixelma: I'm only working on the Cowon for now. Therefore using COWON_D2_PAD, not 'touchscreen'
18:14:15tomersfml: Good tip! I guess you mean \ButtonA{}~/~\ButtonB ?
18:14:17linuxstbtomers: To be honest, I'm not sure. What about the "/" in "previous/next" ?

18:16:18tomersSo everyone agrees \ButtonA{}~/~\ButtonB for alternative buttons? (i.e. left/right)
18:17:43tomerspixelma: So in Minesweeper, should I delete the sentence: "Use Scroll Forward/Scroll Backward to select the required percentage of mines to set the difficulty then press the Select key to begin."?
18:18:27fmltomers: I think the second ~ is not needed because table columns are rather narrow. Tex will have problems with breaking lines or will have high penalties.
18:19:09fmlAlso I think we should change our macros so that a line break is possible within a button (I'm not sure if it's possible now)
18:19:18tomersfml: \ButtonA{}~/ \ButtonB ? If there's a consensus here, I like to go over the manual and change...
18:19:40tomersfml: The button macro only changes the font
18:19:54fmltomers: I would do it like that but I'm not god (yet ;-)
18:20:10tomersbut maybe I'm wrong here
18:21:16fmltomers: if you use ~ you don't need the {} after ButtonA. But they do no harm either.

18:22:37tomersfml: You mean the 'does' patch?

19:11:09Jonathan__Hey, I'm back with another question or two
19:12:01Jonathan__I read that installing rockbox will destroy my ability to play DRM protected music. I do two things that I think may be DRM protected.
19:12:27kugeltomers: what is the "hold feature"?
19:12:42kugelthe second entry in the keymap file seems unneeded
19:13:01Jonathan__one, I use the overdrive media console to check out audio books on the more system.
19:13:38kugelJonathan__: target?
19:13:53Jonathan__two, I might buy a couple songs off of itunes. I would burn them to a CD then rip them back on to the player. are either of these things DRM protected?
19:14:01Jonathan__not sure what you mean
19:14:21Jonathan__http://dbooks.wplc.info/EE47786B-35AD-4771-A771-E45307AE677B/10/355/en/Default.htm this is where I would get them from
19:14:22topikrockbox doesn't break drm on the fuze anymore
19:14:26kugelwhich player do you use?
19:14:26Jonathan__oh
19:14:29Jonathan__Fuze
19:14:32Jonathan__v1
19:14:45Jonathan__sweet, I am definetly going to get rockbox
19:14:57kugelwell, I don't think we can guarantee that it doesn't break DRM
19:15:08Jonathan__oh, but it most likely won't?
19:15:08tomerskugel: When you release to hold button (not 'feature', oops, taken wording from the guy in the forum thread), you might slide the button too much, and accidentally press hold
19:15:11topikrockbox won't play those drm files though, you need to go back to the original firmware for that
19:15:23Jonathan__oh
19:15:37kugelwe had that problem indeed, but IIRC it went away after fixing the internal clock. I'm not too sure since we haven't much users that use DRM'd files
19:15:38Jonathan__so the overdrive media console stuff is out on rockbox?
19:15:38topikthere are few guarantees in life. rockbox shouldn't break the original firmware's ability to play drm files any more

19:16:39topikJonathan__: yes it will
19:16:45Jonathan__thanks topik
19:16:55kugelit will remove it
19:17:28topikJonathan__: holding the 'left' button will boot your fuze into the original firmware even when rockbox is installed
19:17:36topikyou can still play your infected files there then
19:17:54topikholding left while you turn it on that is
19:17:55Jonathan__ok, thanks. This rockbox thing is going to be so much fun lol
19:18:24tomerskugel: The second line is needed, since you might press Minus for too long, before sliding the power switch to press Power
19:18:40tomerskugel: I've just tested it...
19:19:40kugelwhat an awkward combo anyway
19:19:49Jonathan__lol
19:20:17*kugel would be annoyed if he needed to do this
19:20:25tomerskugel: Indeed, but it's usable. We have only 3 buttons (-/+/Menu), and a sliding button which serves both as Power and Hold
19:21:08tomerskugel: Using the D2 in your pocket, you'll realize it is needed :-)
19:21:47kugelgoing to the filebrowser isn't something you do from the pocket, is it?

19:24:32Jonathan__awww, do other wads work better?
19:24:36Jonathan__like free doom?
19:24:53tomerskugel: You got a point... But still you get it out of your pocket, look at the screen, realizing it is on hold (black screen), and put it out of hold. You may accidentally press Power this way, thus going to latest browsed dir. Going back to WPS requires hitting the WPS combo, or going up the path to the main menu, and press 'Now Playing' list item...
19:24:55Hillshumkugel: I was able to get to higher levels on my e200v2
19:25:04kugelI was talking about freedoom, I don't know how other wads work
19:25:04topikdoom on your fuze is a nice gimmick but not something you'll be dedicating your life to
19:25:17Jonathan__hmm,
19:26:14kugelHillshum: maybe it depends on what core features you enable (some take additional RAM after enabling)
19:27:13Jonathan__I'm just looking for something to waste time on on a car trip

19:46:33stripwaxsaratoga - in what sense? I have a 'vague' feel for it, given that it's based on an algorithm I haven't read about much. www.nothings.org/stb_vorbis is useful for understanding the algo a bit
19:47:39saratogastripwax: i'm trying to understand how the trig tables it uses work without much success
19:47:46saratogathey seem really odd to me
19:48:06stripwaxaren't they just cos tables, used with offsets for different values of N ?
19:48:43stripwaxsaratoga- in mdct.c, why is revtab0 created/setup ? doesn't seem to be being used at all
19:48:45notlistening FlynDice, hey formatted my e200v2, full build from svn last night and it started to work again now after a night being left on same issue with the Panic message
19:48:58saratogastripwax: i think its ffmpeg baggage
19:49:13FlynDicenotlistening: Thanks for doing the format thing and checking. I left mine on all night also and even though it is working just fine I have found some more corrupted playlist_control files. I'm going to revert the 4 bit widebus for now and see if I can do some investigating
19:49:17saratogastripwax: the tremor imdct does some neat tricks with the trig tables
19:49:36FlynDicelol was just writing to you before you posted ;-)
19:49:38saratogafor instance they use the same trig tables for both rotation and DFT
19:49:51saratogawhich i didn't think was possible without a large reduction in accuracy
19:49:57stripwaxneat-ish, I guess. I thought it was just one table of cos(iPI/n) for largest n, and then the loops step through it at different speeds
19:50:18stripwaxnot sure how many other trig tables you would even need .. ?
19:50:33stripwaxdoes ffmpeg have multiple different trig tables?
19:50:46saratogastripwax: it does
19:51:40stripwaxso ... maybe I've changed something in my patch, but there's only one fsincos function afaict.
19:52:01saratogatheres a table of cos/sin (2 * M_PI * i / n ) and another of cos/sin (2 * M_PI * (i + 0.125) / n)
19:52:24saratogathat factor of 0.125 is really annoying
19:53:52stripwaxumm
19:55:23stripwaxisn't that just the same as 2*M_PI*i /n+ 2 * M_PI*0.125/n = 2*M_PI*i/n + M_PI/4n ? Which could be implemented as an offset into the same table, I think? (provided table is of size 4n..)
19:55:36stripwaxoh but I guess that's kinda wasteful
19:56:48saratogai think theres some way to fold those two together
19:57:07saratogai just can't see how Tremor does it
19:57:17stripwaxsaratoga - actually vorbis appears to have two tables too.
19:57:43saratogayeah but they're really just two halves of the same table
19:57:58saratogayou could merge them into one table sampled twice as densely
19:58:12stripwaxSuppose that's true
19:58:22saratogabut i think thats somehow the trick
19:58:30saratogathey've massively oversampled those two tables
19:58:32notlisteningFlynDice, seems that it might be the playlists issue as well here for me based on the files that are corrupt

20:19:57stripwaxI can't help feeling it should be completely symmetric.. 2PI/8 = 45 deg; everything's symmetrical around that

20:29:30saratogai would just pick things that look wrong and work on them without worrying about the other things
20:29:36stripwaxbut wait, I thought you/mt already checked for distortion in the mdct?
20:29:44saratogayeah thats fixed
20:29:55saratogabut accuracy is still poor i think due to the above issue
20:30:01stripwaxoh...
20:30:22saratogawell poor is relative
20:30:29saratogaprobably something like 70dB SNR
20:30:45saratogaso i doubt anyone can hear the difference, but without that commit it was something like 150dB SNR
20:31:03stripwaxyou mean 'with' ?
20:31:09saratogayeah sorry
20:31:17saratogabefore I reverted it, we got 70dB or so
20:31:34saratogathats even more confusingly worded
20:31:52kugellol :)
20:31:53stripwaxI think that makes sense because of the PI/4n offset thing. If the offset is done away with (by starting at a different place in the lookup rather than element 0), I think all the trig tables can be shared
20:32:21saratogastripwax: i sat around trying that in matlab all day and got nowhere
20:32:25markunthe commit was pretty careless of me :)
20:32:31saratogahaha
20:32:58saratogamarkun: i did the same thing but double checked in matlab right before I commited it!
20:33:11saratogathen a couple months later checked the logs and saw you did it too
20:33:14markunhehe
20:33:33saratogabut it looks like Tremor does it now anyway!
20:33:41saratogai wonder how accurate tremor is, i should test
20:33:46stripwaxsaratoga - But really, isn't it just cos(2PI*(i+0.125)/n) = cos( (2PI*i + PI/4 ) /n) = cos(2PI*(i+N/8)/n) ?
20:34:20saratogalet me get a pen and paper i suck at algebra
20:34:24stripwaxand sin(2PI*i/n) = cos(2PI*(i+N/4)/n) ?
20:35:25stripwaxTremor's quite cute in this regard, because it basically iterates until it falls off the trig table; then reverses direction and iterates until it falls off the other end
20:35:53stripwaxas long as you have the right number of iteration steps, it sorta doesn't matter what your initial starting point is (so long as you get it right ..!)
20:37:30stripwaxFor N=8, i=0..8, then: cos(2PI*i/N) = [1,s2,0,-s2,-1,-s2,0,s2,1] (where s2= sqrt(2))
20:37:48saratogastripwax: i was thinking that the reason tremor used such a large N (basically 8192 between the two tables) was to minimize error while stepping through the table while neglecting the N/8
20:38:42stripwaxcos(2PI*(i+0.125)/N) = cos((2PI*i+2PI/8)/N) = [s2,0,-s2,-1,-s2,0,s2,1] - i.e. shifted by one elem
20:39:34stripwaxsin = [0,s2,1,s2,0,-s2,-1,s2,0]; shifted sin = [s2,1,s2,0,-s2,-1,-s2,0,s2]
20:39:43stripwaxI think/hope, anyway
20:39:55saratogai plotted in in matlab and that was not the case IIRC
20:40:02stripwaxwish I had matlab :)

20:44:51saratogastripwax: I plotted the argument to cos computed for each size
20:45:00saratogaso i could measure the error in trying to resuse one table for all sizes

20:54:51stripwaxyeah, something like that. So for N=8, the table with 0.125 offset starts one element in from the start of the table without the offset; for N=8, the 0.125 offset is two elements in from the start of the table without the offset; etc
20:54:58stripwax(again, I think/hope)
20:55:27stripwaxSo make N as big as you need, and you end up with all tables for both with+without offset versions for all n <= N
20:55:38stripwaxprovided N>=8, which it always is here
20:57:10CIA-6New commit by FlynDice (r24055): Sansa AMS: Fix Red. Write delay is not included for non HAVE_MULTIDRIVE.
20:57:35saratogastripwax: [x,y]=(min(abs(alphas512(1)-alphas4096)))
20:57:51saratogawhere alphasXYZ are the arguments to cos for that size table
20:58:08saratogai get that the smallest difference between them is 1.9175e-004
20:58:26saratogaat an offset of 1 sample
20:59:16saratoga[x,y]=(min(abs(alphas128(1)-alphas4096))) gives an offset of 5 samples, but no better accuracy

21:06:13stripwaxsaratoga - sorry, didn't follow that at all. I'm not a matlab kinda person
21:07:55*JdGordon| volanteers gevaerts to fix that :)
21:07:55stripwaxOk so specifically for N=128: alpha[0]=2*PI*(0+1/8)/128 = (2*PI/8)/128.
21:09:36stripwaxFor N=1024: for a table without offsets, call it costab, costab[i] = 2*PI*i/1024
21:09:50stripwaxSo alpha[0] for N=128 = costab[8] for N=1024
21:09:59gevaertsJdGordon|: I know :) There are more important issues, and the only place where this particular one would ever bite is if someone mods a clip to add an ATA interface or something like that, so it's probably not very urgent
21:10:05stripwax(or costab[1] for N=256, etc)
21:10:44stripwaxWhereas you're comparing alpha for one N against alpha for another N. You need to compare alpha for one N against unshifted costab for some N.
21:13:43stripwaxActually I think my logic is all screwed up.
21:13:57stripwaxWish I had matlab :)
21:14:21stripwaxYou actually need an unshifted table of size N*8 for that to work
21:15:25stripwaxi.e. alpha[0] for N=128 = costab[1] for N=1024 (not costab[8] - no idea where that came from)
21:17:50stripwaxBut you only need 1/8th the data anyway due to being able to reflect the trig data. So for N=2048, to get only unshifted cos/sin you need only 256 points (either cos or sin) ; and to get alpha func you need N'=2048*8=16384 BUT you still only need to store 1/8th data for the same reason => hence total 2048 points (either cos or sin) should get you everything you need
21:18:05stripwaxand I think *that* is exactly what tremor is doing :-p

21:43:33 Part watto
21:43:49LloreanClose with "Works for me" or "Out of date"?
21:44:52saratogastripwax: sorry had to go out, basically what that code does it take the difference of one argument to sign in the 128 entry table against all the arguments to sign in the 4096 table, and find the closest match
21:45:14saratogaand it finds that with the predicted offset you get almost but not exactly the correct value
21:45:23gevaertsI think so ("Out of date" anyway. "Works for me" isn't really the right response for rare hard to trigger bugs)
21:45:24saratogaand I estimated that you'd get about 14 bits accuracy if you used that method

22:00:49JdGordon|queue_send() blocks
22:00:50linuxstbdomonoky: Looking at sansapatcher.c, the is_sansa() function checks the partition layout, and then the contents of the firmware partition, so I can't see how it can detect an e200r. Maybe rbutil isn't using that function?

22:25:53qwertzI did an experiment wit ipodlinux abot 1 or two years ago

22:26:43bluebrotherdid Rockbox Utility autodetect the mountpoint?
22:28:34qwertzoki doki, should I do complete install to erase all old stuff?
22:28:37stripwaxsaratoga - the alpha for 128 won't be in the alpha for 4096. But the alpha for 128 will be in the unshifted cos/sin table for 4096. And the alpha for 4096 will be in the unshifted cos/sin table for 32768

22:33:00stripwaxsaratoga - when you said you searched for an entry in the table for 128, and it wasn't in the table for 4096. By "table" do you mean your tcos2=cos(alpha) tables , in both cases?
22:33:20saratogastripwax: i computed all the alphas for 4096
22:33:29saratogathen i looked for the first alpha in the 128 table
22:33:35stripwaxright so try computing regular cos(2*PI*i/N) for 4096 instead..
22:33:44bluebrotherqwertz: and no .rockbox on the vfat partition? That would explain the wrong detection
22:34:16saratogastripwax: if alpha doesn't match, then cos(alpha) won't match . . .
22:34:18qwertzbluebrother: So rockbox_root is maybe a legacy of experiments with ipodlinux. should I rease it
22:34:30 Join p3tur [50] (n=petur@rockbox/developer/petur)
22:34:49stripwaxright, that's why you shouldn't compare alpha with alpha, or cos(alpha) with cos(alpha) - you must compare cos(alpha) to cos(2*PI*i/N)
22:35:05stripwaxi.e. compare the thing with the 0.125 to the thing without the 0.125 but N a factor of 8 larger
22:35:30stripwaxBecause: for N=128 and i=0, alpha = 2*PI*(0 + 1/8) / 128 = 2*PI/(128*8)
22:35:46saratogastripwax: ohhhh
22:35:57stripwaxWhich is the same as 2*PI*(1)/1024
22:36:01linuxstbqwertz: Yes, delete .rockbox from the rockbox_root partition
22:36:02saratogaif its really that simple i will feel really stupid
22:36:02domonokybluebrother: its the silly autodetection code, it stops at the first rockbox-info.txt/rbutil.log it finds.. (which is probably the worng one)
22:36:18 Quit arohtar (Client Quit)
22:36:19stripwaxWhich will be in the regular (cos(2*PI*i/N) *not* cos(alpha)) table for N=1024
22:36:25bluebrotherdomonoky: yes, definitely :(

22:36:47qwertzbluebrother: .rockbox and rockbox-info.txt exist on vfat partition, too. As well as a lot of database_x.tcd
22:36:56stripwaxeither that or I'm going crazy. I have been off sick actually so who knows :)
22:37:04bluebrotherfortunately I'll be on a couple of longish train trips the next weeks ...
22:37:09saratogastripwax: you're right it works
22:37:14stripwaxwoohoo! :-)
22:37:29saratogaso we can combine the mdct tables with the fft tables and be more accurate then we are now
22:37:33bluebrotherreworking the autodetection is on my todo list since quite a while
22:37:34stripwaxyep
22:37:42stripwaxeveryone's a winner :)
22:37:42domonokybluebrother: my autodetection patch in flyspray would find the correct one (or at least present two options) .. :-) but unfortunatly that still needs more work.. and i didnt found the time for it.
22:38:09stripwaxRewiring the fft to use smaller tables and some kind of modulo addressing might be a bit messy though. but I'm sure we can nick ideas from tremor for that also...
22:38:46bluebrotherdomonoky: yeah, time is this problem that's always around :o
22:39:05qwertzOK - will erase the wrong partition ;o) Where is th original Ipod OS found. Do not want to delet it. But I guess it wont be on ext3 *lol*
22:39:27bluebrotherqwertz: the ipod firmware is on the first partition, which is of type 0
22:39:41domonokybluebrother: so if you use your train time to improve the patch/ write your own better autodetection, it would be great ! :-)
22:40:23qwertzbluebrother: can I see it or is it some kind of hidden flash memory, or so
22:40:53saratogastripwax: error is less then -150dB with your scheme
22:40:54bluebrotherqwertz: it's a regular partition. It doesn't have a filesystem, so you can't mount it.
22:40:56linuxstbqwertz: There's no filesystem there, but you can read/write it by accessing /dev/sdb1 directly... (probably not recommended though).
22:41:04saratogawe're probably limited by the x86 cos() accunracy

22:41:44gevaertsOpinions on FS #9395 ?
22:42:57qwertzbluebrother: OK, I gonna erase the wholw "wrong partition" and rename the right wone to make a proper unit. Then try install. Thanks. CU Later
22:43:57saratogastripwax: changing it in mdct.c should be easy, since we can just change revtab around
22:44:04saratogai don't know about fft-ffmpeg.c
22:44:31JdGordon|gevaerts: I'd close that with a message "reopen if its still happening".. but im sure someone will disagree with that :/
22:44:42n1sgevaerts: i'd say close with "fixed"
22:44:54AlexPI'd close it
22:45:25gevaertsThree people who would close it. Now who will get to it first? :)
22:45:40n1swow, bug count has dropped nicely, good work people :)
22:46:14AlexPfrom what to what?
22:46:49n1sfrom300 a few days ago to 280 now
22:47:08AlexPI was expecting a bigger drop from what you said :)
22:47:17n1swell, *open* bug count
22:47:22gevaertsAlexP: we're still working on it!
22:47:36AlexPI'm not criticising!
22:47:46n1sAlexP: the trend has been a slight increase so any drop of more than 1 is nice :)
22:47:56AlexPvery true :)
22:49:20JdGordon|if we are more agressive with closing very old and abandond bugs we should easily get under 200 again
22:49:44JdGordon|bugs which we think are fixed and havnt had any comments for months
22:50:04linuxstbgevaerts: Do you understand FS #10808 ?
22:50:08gevaertsone problem I'm having is that some bugs are a bit vague, list several related things, and might be mostly fixed
22:50:38JdGordon|I'd say depending on what the unfixed things are either create new ones for them, or ignore them
22:51:10gevaertslinuxstb: I'd need to check, but this seems to indicate that windows 2000 doesn't handle composite devices properly
22:51:42gevaertsin other words, reassign to microsoft :)
22:52:03n1sgevaerts: windows 2000 has been out-of-support from MS for quite a while, hasn't it?
22:52:29gevaertsn1s: probably, but we should still be able to confirm that this is the issue
22:53:35n1smaybe some way to disable the hid functionality and do just msc would be good for such cases
22:53:50gevaertsthat's there in svn
22:54:08CIA-6New commit by bluebrother (r24056): Remove scanning for Ipod from Ipod bootloader installation and clean it up a bit. The Ipod is specified by its mountpoint, so there is no need to scan ...
22:55:07*AlexP closes one!
22:55:45n1sgevaerts: as a setting? or some hidden magic button combo thing?
22:55:55gevaertsn1s: a setting
22:56:03n1sgevaerts: cool
22:57:08gevaertshm, when did we enable USB in the svn builds on ipods?
22:57:17JdGordon|AlexP: we should do a prize for the person that closes the most :)
22:57:24linuxstbgevaerts: About a year ago?
22:57:24JdGordon|that should add some incentive
22:57:32AlexPJdGordon|: :)
22:57:36JdGordon|for 3.1 wasnt it?
22:58:40linuxstbgevaerts: You enabled it in Feb 2009 - r20105
22:59:13gevaertsThanks
22:59:34gevaertsThat means it was after FS #9793, which means I'll close that one
23:00
23:00:13 Quit bmbl ("Bye!")
23:02:05JdGordon|while people are awake... look at the dev mail thread about the postponing.... what starte are we trying to get to? and where are we in relation to that?
23:03:48gevaertsuhm, FS #9810?
23:03:56gevaertsDon't we just measure the voltage?
23:05:53JdGordon|the percent comes from the voltage based on target iirc
23:05:56*bluebrother wonders how r23943 should work −− #define QUIT 0 but later if(pressed & QUIT) ?
23:06:09gevaertsso if this is a bug, it's a hardware bug
23:06:11n1sgevaerts: yeah, and we convert voltage to percent
23:06:18*gevaerts closes
23:06:39n1sor a adc driver bug, conversion bug but that seems unlikely
23:07:00bertrikthe last 10 percent is on a quite steep part of the voltage vs time curve
23:07:00n1syeah, close
23:07:14bertrik(probably)

23:13:34*AlexP is getting into this
23:14:45AlexPgevaerts: I'd close that - it is likely an accent issue, and your own voice files can be generated
23:14:55gevaertsAny chance of FS #9952 still being present today?
23:15:01AlexPIt isn't wrong per se
23:15:05bertrikI do think it's a bit odd that the percentage lingers at 9% so long, but nearly impossible to investigate further because the exact DAP model is not mentioned
23:15:34bertrikoh, sansa e200
23:17:04JdGordon|it could very well be the calibration on that target is screwed up
23:17:07JdGordon|or was at the time
23:17:21*JdGordon| doesnt like these nano2g bugs in the tracker yet
23:17:32JdGordon|unless they get closed they will stay forever with this same problem
23:17:54*gevaerts agrees. Maybe we should downgrade nano2g to "unusable" again...
23:18:39JdGordon|or we be more agressive closing bugs as they become out dated :p
23:19:16gevaertsJdGordon|: can you quickly look at FS #9868?
23:19:29gevaertsJdGordon|: oops no, FS #9952
23:19:30HillshumAre they all of one particular thing?
23:20:39JdGordon|gevaerts: i had to do a double take on the date there.... that cant still be open!
23:20:53JdGordon|it didnt even click that 20102 was months ago :p
23:21:09bertrikit indeed looks like the 9% percentage is caused by a different battery curve, the calculation of battery percentage is correct
23:22:24bertrikat around 3.68V, our calibration curve expects the battery voltage to drop a lot faster than was the case with the battery from the FS bug
23:23:08 Nick YPSY is now known as Ypsy (n=ypsy@geekpadawan.de)
23:23:11linuxstbJdGordon|: What do you mean by "unless they get closed they will stay forever with this same problem" ?
23:24:06JdGordon|I mean the actual bug could be fixed, but because the reporter disappeared, or forgot the bug just stays there, and then months later we wonder if its indeed fixed or not
23:24:21JdGordon|9420? it seems like hardware problem?
23:25:14JdGordon|unless we actually reset the radio frequency every couple of minutes?
23:25:48linuxstbJdGordon|: For example?
23:26:35JdGordon|this battery curve bug
23:26:53gevaertsJdGordon|: one comment says that the OF doesn't do this
23:27:21JdGordon|the last comment says it does showup in the OF
23:27:37gevaertsyes. A bit confusing...
23:28:37gevaertsJdGordon|: see also FS #10405
23:28:53JdGordon|yeah, saw it
23:28:56*linuxstb wonders what JdGordon| is talking about - he is talking about the Nano2G bugs...
23:29:38gevaertslinuxstb: people going through bug lists tend to have confused minds :)
23:31:01AlexPWhat about things like 5072 - isn't that just not implemented rather than a bug?
23:31:15JdGordon|linuxstb: i dont have a specifc bug in mind.. and maybe im getting the wrong impression..
23:31:45gevaertsAlexP: even JdGordon| said that it's a bug!
23:31:54AlexPMmmm, but is it?
23:32:01rasherJdGordon|: I think there was a camp of "Well you have strange tags" and then little old me saying "Please try harder, the info is all there"
23:32:09linuxstbJdGordon|: The main problem (IIUC) on the Nano2G seems to be the NAND driver, but only on some devices. On most, it seems to work fine.
23:32:15AlexPgevaerts: I mean, it is functionality we'd like, but it isn't intended to work currently
23:32:27*linuxstb wishes you could search by player type on flyspray...
23:32:42gevaertsAlexP: does the manual state this properly?
23:32:50AlexPI don't know
23:32:57AlexPbut I doubt it :)
23:33:06JdGordon|rasher: :(
23:33:14JdGordon|the usual lack of agreement then?
23:33:26bertriklinuxstb, yeah I miss that too
23:33:47JdGordon|5072 shuold probably be closed, or changed to a feature request
23:34:12 Quit n1s ("Lämnar")
23:34:17bertrikand then closed because we don't do feature requests :| ?
23:34:26JdGordon|:D
23:34:28AlexPindeed
23:34:29gevaertsor rephrased into a manual bug
23:34:39AlexPI'm just going to put a note in the manual, then close it
23:35:11*JdGordon| wishes someone would work on the database so it can be more like the file browser from the codes POV
23:36:39JdGordon|then bookmark, playlist resume, follow playlist would all just magically work
23:37:50pamauryBut isn't a database completely different from a file hierarchy ?
23:38:32JdGordon|yes and no
23:38:38gevaertsyes. I'm not convinced that this would work well
23:38:47AlexPSo to make sure - bookmarking doesn't work at all when the file is launched through the database?
23:39:10JdGordon|. /all/genres/metal/bandname would be the "file location"
23:39:25JdGordon|which would always generate the same database query
23:39:33JdGordon|AlexP: iirc, yes
23:39:59JdGordon|just like /music/albuum/ always gets the same filesystem loookup
23:40:09gevaertsJdGordon|: a major point of the database is that you're not limited to that...
23:40:27AlexPSo does "Bookmarking only works when files are launched from the file browser, and does not currently work for files launched via the database." suit people?
23:40:28JdGordon|of course... you use the database browser to get that path
23:40:30 Quit domonoky (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
23:40:52linuxstbJdGordon|: What about playlists generated on playcount?
23:41:01gevaertsJdGordon|: you can change the path halfway and then add more tracks to the playlist
23:41:09JdGordon|the query would be the same.. the value would be different
23:41:33JdGordon|well, yeah, its not a perfect solution
23:42:00gevaertsHow about FS #10103? Just close?
23:42:39linuxstbBut I agree the database needs work. IIUC,when you create a playlist, every filename is added individually to the .playlist_control file, which is what Rockbox's playlist code was designed to avoid.
23:43:12JdGordon|yes
23:43:38linuxstbSomeone should have paid attention at the time and shouted at Slasheri...
23:43:45stripwaxsaratoga - sorry, back now
23:43:55stripwaxso, mdct.c doesn't use revtab..
23:44:15stripwaxoh, fft.revtab
23:44:35JdGordon|even a resumed file browser playlist stuffs up if you modify the file contents
23:44:46JdGordon|s/file/folder/
23:45:12JdGordon|which is why I wouldnt have a problem with a playlist generated from the DB having a "path" like the filebrowser has
23:45:46gevaertsor a set of such paths
23:45:55stripwaxoh - excellent - so only the unrolling at the end of ff_imdct_calc makes the assumption that input & output buffers are physically distinct. (the thing that prevents ffmpeg imdct operating in place). that should be easy to fix
23:46:09gevaertsbut yes, that would solve some issues
23:46:15Hillshumpossibly using a UUID or something for the path
23:46:16Hillshum?
23:46:40gevaertswhy?
23:47:46stripwaxsaratoga - I'm going to merge the r17783 you spotted into my patch; and commit to branch svn. shout if you have any questions/reservations ...
23:48:15Hillshumgevaerts: Might make figuring out what the paths should be easier? I don't know much about this
23:48:31JdGordon|sounds like over-engineering...
23:48:41JdGordon|speaking of which.. has anyone thought about using sqllite for the db :)
23:48:51CIA-6New commit by alex (r24057): Add note to Bookmarking sections that bookmarking only works from the file browser and not the database.
23:48:52gevaertsHillshum: I'd expect such a path to be "genre=xxx/artist=yyy"
