00:57:43Unhelpfuli would expect binary exponentiation could handle fractional base *fairly* well - i think one multiply per bit of size of exponent, and one per set bit. but only for integer exponents.
00:58:38leavittxUnhelpful: I need power =)
00:59:34Unhelpfulugh. well, binexp will at least handle the whole part fairly quickly, then you just need to find a good algorithm for the fractional part and multiply the results.

01:03:01Unhelpfulobviously for a fixed-point base those multiplies need to be fixed-point, so they'd each be a long multiply with a corrective shift.
01:03:18leavittxwhere can I find an example? because I'm not very familiar with such things. If I were, I wouldn't ask.
01:03:30leavittxsome plugin, etc...
01:03:37leavittxI don't know
01:03:39burpdoes anyone know what the maximum mpeg bitrate can be on an ipod nano 1g?
01:04:43Unhelpfulleavittx: ah, there are examples for fixed-point math all over - nearly all lossy codecs on rockbox should be using them, and any of the plugins that need to use fractional values - i know that at least pictureflow and fractal use fixed-point values.

01:08:04leavittxUnhelpful: I've just stolen some functions from pdbox, now going to test speed of them. After that I will look closer on your advices.
01:08:04burpok :)
01:08:29burpjust tried it.. around ~550kbit/s with 192kbit audio still works
01:08:54linuxstbI would expect that to be more than good enough. Was it?
01:09:08burpit is :>
01:09:27*Unhelpful doubts we have an explicit "maximum" bitrate at all - eventually buffers might be too small, and certainly you'll reach a point where the device can't decode fast enough...
01:10:06 Quit Farthen (Ping timeout: 265 seconds)
01:10:08burpyes, I meat maximum by point where device isn't fast enough anymore
01:11:15burpmencoder vqmin=3 seems to produce good quality with low enough bitrates ~<= 500kbit
01:11:23 Join GeekShadow [0] (~Antoine@reactos/tester/GeekShadow)
01:11:53Unhelpfulyes, very very tiny screen helps there ;)
01:11:59burpvqmin=2 might get above 550-600 which produces dropouts
01:12:41Unhelpfulcan't you use vqmin=2 and just set a peak bitrate? although 2 is likely excessive for most use...
01:13:52linuxstbI don't know if it's improved in recent years, but I seem to remember mencoder's bitrate control was quite poor and it ignored any attempts to limit it...
01:14:13burpwell, vqmin=3 seems fine
01:15:58linuxstbburp: So it looks like you answered your own question ;)
01:16:13burpseems so :>
01:20:17leavittxNow I'm looking for some replacement for malloc(). I wanna try buffer_alloc(), so what is "init" method? Where can I read about it? ;)
01:21:40JdGordondont touch that
01:22:18leavittxI just have read http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/AllocatingRAM
01:23:02leavittxThis comes after Allocate on the Heap.
01:23:13Unhelpfulleavittx: you need to make a big buffer/array and allocate memory from it yourself. we have several malloc libraries for plugin and there is also buflib which uses integer handles.
01:23:31linuxstbleavittx: The replacement for malloc is generally to design your code to not require it - i.e. use static buffers.
01:23:40Unhelpfulyou could also use rb->bufopen but that will fail in many cases during playback
01:25:06leavittxUnhelpful: at least bufopen has strange params (%
01:25:27Unhelpfulleavittx: they're not strange, it's simply not malloc. ;)
01:25:35linuxstbleavittx: How much memory do you need?

01:25:55Unhelpfulbut i meant bufalloc, not bufopen, actually. :)
01:26:43leavittxlinuxstb: depends on :)
01:27:13leavittxUnhelpful: =)
01:29:08leavittxlinuxstb: I use linked list structure. What will you recommend me?
01:29:49linuxstbDepends on your answer to my question...
01:29:55leavittxSo I don't know the exact size (how much elements).
01:30:39leavittxI read data dynamically, from file.
01:31:18linuxstbThe devices your code will run on don't have an infinite supply of RAM (or any swap). So you need to have a rough idea of your code's memory usage.
01:31:41linuxstbAnd do you want your code to run whilst Rockbox is still playing music?
01:31:53 Part froggyman
01:32:32leavittxlinuxstb: It will not exceed 1 megabyte, all right?
01:33:15leavittxlinuxstb: both variants with music are acceptable :)
01:33:42Unhelpfulleavittx: you can ask rockbox for a pointer to, and the length of, the unused space in the plugin buffer. and yes, from there you get to manage the memory yourself. we have libraries for this. ;)
01:36:54leavittxBtw, I have my own (university project) memory managing library with first fit algorythm. But it's quite strange :-\
01:38:08leavittxCan I use TLSF in my plugin? :)
01:38:35leavittxIs that a good choice?
01:39:15 Quit kramer3d (Quit: Leaving)
01:39:20*Unhelpful thinks we also have a best-fit allocator - that might be better as you can't compact.

01:39:45srbakerheya folks
01:40:10srbakeri have an ipod plug in my car; i don't suppose rockbox supports the interface software?
01:40:18srbakerie: reporting the song name and stuff over the cable?
01:40:41srbakerif i were to put rockbox on my ipod nano, is it likely to still work through the stereo in my car for song change, etc?
01:40:54 Join Barahir [0] (~jonathan@gssn-5f754b0b.pool.mediaWays.net)
01:41:25Unhelpfulsrbaker: *maybe*. it probably either uses the apple accessory protocol (some such devices will work with rockbox, others not), or accesses the ipod as a disk. and you can install rockbox and still run apple's firmware :)
01:41:48linuxstbleavittx: The plugin buffer on most targets is 512KB - for your code and data. As Unhelpful said, your plugin can get a pointer to the unused memory in the plugin buffer. If you want more than that, you can stop audio playback and grab the large (normally around 28MB) audio buffer.
01:42:03srbakeri don't understand installing rockbox but still running apple's firmware?
01:42:36linuxstbleavittx: But we can't tell you the best way to use that RAM without know what your plugin is doing. Personally, I would try and avoid malloc-like allocation if at all possible.
01:42:46Unhelpfulsrbaker: it supports dual-boot. if the accessory cable in your car doesn't work with rockbox you can shut down the nano and boot apple's firmware.
01:43:10srbakerohh
01:43:17Unhelpfullinuxstb: malloc-like is *ok* if you are allocating and not freeing very often, or if frees tend to be done in the same order as allocations.
01:43:22srbakerwell, that would defeat the purpose for me, i want to play my music in ogg vorbis
01:44:50Unhelpfulsrbaker: well, all i can say is go ahead and try. and if it doesn't work, you may be able to help us make it work, but that will mean a bit of work on your end, and getting in touch with somebody who knows the accessory protocol code.
01:45:01leavittxUnhelpful, linuxstb: and what about TLSF (#include "codecs/lib/tlsf/src/tlsf.h")?
01:45:06srbakeryup
01:45:14Unhelpfulleavittx: don't know anything about it. :)
01:45:25srbakeri was hoping it was a simple answer, but i'm happy with "try and let us know" as well :)
01:45:54*linuxstb neither, apart from the fact that if it's in the codec lib, you can't use it in plugins (without copy/paste or changes to the Rockbox build scripts)
01:46:11leavittxcool
01:46:18Unhelpfulsrbaker: sorry, there are far too many accessory protocol devices for us to already know if specific ones work. we have a chart somewhere, let me find it.
01:46:35srbakerunderstood.
01:47:05Unhelpfulhere are the ones we know about: http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/IpodAccessories
01:47:36srbakerthx

02:07:59TorneJdGordon: well, i suggest you try just writing to some high address in the top 32mb on your player
02:08:02Torneand see if that dies
02:08:11Torneand if not, see if you can read it as if it were mirrored.
02:08:29Tornemirrored would be great because that means you can detect ram in like two lines of code.
02:08:51Tornei would've done this myself ages ago if i actually had a 32mb ipod
02:08:54Unhelpfulwrite a few values and see if they appear at the mirrored address?
02:08:59Tornewell, just one really
02:09:01Torne:)
02:09:32UnhelpfulTorne: at least two, in the event that the address already had the first value in it ;)
02:09:42TorneUnhelpful: bah
02:10:16Unhelpfulwhat? it's only a 1/(2^32) chance, that's relatively likely. ;)
02:10:28JdGordonsomething like (char*)0x3fff000 = 0xdeadbeef?
02:10:42JdGordonthat needs another 0
02:10:46Torneno it doesn't
02:10:53Tornealso not char*
02:10:56Torneyou probably want:
02:11:00Unhelpfulthat would be (int*)
02:11:43Torne*(int*)0x1fff000 = 0xdeadbeef; *(int*)0x3fff000 = 0xfeedface; splashf("%08x", *(int*)0x1fff000);
02:11:58Torneif it dies with an abort on the second write then we have to do this the hard way
02:12:02Torneif it prints feedface we win
02:12:34Torneif it's still deadbeef then the hardware designers need a kick in the face but we can still do it with a couple more lines :)

02:13:12Unhelpfulif there's no abort and it's not mirrored what exactly *can* we test? that writes to >32MB have no effect?
02:13:19Unhelpful0xC0EDBABE?
02:14:00TorneUnhelpful: if it's not mirrored and deosn't abort then yes, probably writes will have no effect and reads will return garbage

02:14:27Torneunfortunately there exists hardware where reads to dead memory areas return whatever is on the bus from last time ;)
02:14:39Tornealso the cache might fuck things up
02:14:49Torneit would be best to do this before the cache was enabled, but not sure how practical that is
02:15:27UnhelpfulTorne: surely write/flush/read might do it?
02:15:28Tornejust try it at runtime for now will do
02:15:42TorneUnhelpful: well that's why i wrote the code in the way i did above
02:15:48Tornesuch that it reads a different address to the write
02:15:56JdGordonso that splash didnt help us.. what should I try now?
02:15:57Torneoh er wait
02:16:01TorneJdGordon: what happened?
02:16:09Torneyou probably need to blow the cache away
02:16:11JdGordonsplashed deadbeef
02:16:14Torneyeah
02:16:16Tornei forgot about the cache
02:16:24Tornedo the first write
02:16:33Torneclean and invalidate the cache
02:16:39UnhelpfulTorne: doesn't the PP cache on physical address?
02:16:41Tornethen same again after the second write
02:16:51TorneUnhelpful: i have no idea
02:16:54Torneit doesn't matter, though
02:17:04Tornethe cache won't know about mirroring of memory and the like
02:17:07JdGordonpretend I don't know how to flush the cache
02:17:12Torneso just clean and invalidate after each access
02:17:15Torneer
02:17:17Tornei also forget. one sec
02:17:41UnhelpfulTorne: but then the cache shouldn't break tests for mirroring?
02:17:52TorneUnhelpful: it will break the code i wrote above
02:18:02Tornebecause the read of the low address will still return what you wrote to the low address
02:18:07Tornebecause it doesn't know you overwrote it
02:18:38UnhelpfulTorne: ah. duh.

02:22:00amiconnWith our cache controller setup, that is
02:22:03Torneok do that then :)
02:22:12amiconnThe actual offset differs depending on PP version
02:22:17Torneright
02:22:52TorneJdGordon: anyway if this doesn't work either then just try writing to the top bank and then reading it back
02:23:00Tornevia the uncached alias

02:23:21TorneJdGordon: woo, with the uncached address? so it's just mirrored, but the cache was interfering?

02:51:15LeifSo I rushed to Google to see if I could find any stories about people loosing DRM playing capabilities on their players after installing rockbox.
02:51:34LeifI couldn't find anything though. Do any of you know any, or where I can find more information?
02:51:50LeifOh, and here is the page I'm reffering to: http://download.rockbox.org/daily/manual/rockbox-sansafuze/rockbox-buildch2.html#x4-60002

03:08:03kugelI'm not sure what your plugin is going to do, but if you want to use mpegplayer code you should build it as a lib or at the very least exclude mpegplayer.o
03:09:19leavittxkugel: i just copy-pasted make-file from pdbox, thanks ;)
03:13:15leavittxkugel: now another question. my code: if ((infile = rb->open("scene.txt", O_RDONLY)) == -1) { return PLUGIN_ERROR; } where must be scene.txt on disk to read it?
03:13:40leavittxor it's incorrect code?
03:14:10leavittxand I have to write if ((infile = rb->open(PLUGIN_DEMOS_DIR "/scene.txt", O_RDONLY)) == -1) { ... } instead
03:14:19kugelI think so yes
03:14:32kugelif you run it in the sim it should print a missing slash warning

06:06:22JDMFTWSo im having a problem with my Gigabeat S not holding the firmware
06:09:32Unhelpful"holding"?
06:11:46JDMFTWYea after doing the install and turning off the player it reverts to the old firmware and asking to be plugged into the computer to be reflashed with the toshiba firmware
06:14:13S_a_i_n_tdoes it run fine with the original firmware?
06:15:03JDMFTWYes runs fine with the original
06:18:46S_a_i_n_tWell, that would seem to suggest you're doing something wrong during the install...are you using rbutil or doing a manual install?
06:19:11JDMFTWManual becuase there isnt a auto avialible for the S series.
06:19:31S_a_i_n_tis it a current/daily build or the 3.5 release?
06:20:05JDMFTWI think its the current.
06:20:12S_a_i_n_t*not that that changes the install procedure...
06:21:51JDMFTWI followed the guide unless I skipped a section, It works fine listen to music but the second I turn it off and turn it back on it reverts to the plug in to update firmware screen.
06:23:43UnhelpfulJDMFTW: single- or dual-boot bootloader?
06:24:47JDMFTWsingle
06:25:46UnhelpfulJDMFTW: try dual. the newest toshiba bootrom for S does what you're seeing unless you use dual-boot.
06:26:12JDMFTWokay try that then and report back

06:43:36JDMFTWTrue I guess thats what IRC is for.
06:45:50S_a_i_n_tthe section regarding rbutil should probably be taken out (for now at least) of the manual for the gigabeat S also...Or it should say the target is unsupported at the very beginning of "automatic install" instead of the very end.

10:29:43tomersI'm not sure it's the best choice, though...
10:33:13linuxstbtomers: Why would putting POWER_TYPE_COUNT in the enum break things?
10:33:44linuxstbI would also prefer the name NUMBER_OF_POWERUPS - so it looks different to the real values (POWER_TYPE_EXTRA_BALL etc)

10:48:13tomersdoes ipod nano has working hid now?
10:48:45pixelmado you mean the 1st or 2nd gen Nano?
10:49:21tomersI guess it's 1st gen Nano. I'm considering closing FS #10242 - HID input not working for me on ipod nano
10:50:17S_a_i_n_ttomers: It probably means 2nd gen Nano...as HID is known broken on that...so I'd leave it.
10:50:27tomersok
10:51:02pixelmathe bug report is from someone with a 1st gen Nano - but already quite old
10:51:33S_a_i_n_tIn fact...I'm *STILL* trying to get HID disabled by default for Nano2g...as turning HID off seems to solve a HUGE ammount of issues on the RB Forums with Nano2g users
10:52:01S_a_i_n_tsuch as not being able to transfer files, the drive not mounting properly etc.
10:52:09tomersi have no objections for that
10:52:48tomersalthough i would like to see it fixed rather than disable the feature and risking it being 'forgotten'
10:53:49pixelmaI still wonder if the default should be HID turned off, considering reports of broken USB connection with it enabled (depending on OS and target maybe but you don't know the setup of a user beforehand). As stated last weekend already, I thiink data connection is much more important than HID, everyone expects the former to be working - the latter is something additional
10:54:48S_a_i_n_tI'm not sure who's department it is...but I'd say for now its safer to disable it...I'm almost positive a number of people will of mistakenly thought rockbox is a bag of shit because they can't use their player with HID on and its on by default.

10:55:08stripwaxOk, I'm definitely not imagining it. My ipod video *is* turning itself on at some arbitrary times. Since I leave the hold switch on, it means it turns on into the OF. I'm going to open an issue.
10:55:31S_a_i_n_tI've rescued countless 2g users by simply saying "turn HID off" in the forums...and I know plently of other people have given the same advice also.
10:56:24tomersS_a_i_n_t: Stability of data transfer is above all, TMHO. You should ask gevaerts to disable HID. I personally, with great sorrow, second your suggestion to disable it
10:56:50tomersdoes it cause so many issues on players other than nano-2g ?
10:57:17S_a_i_n_twell, that's you, pixelma and ,yself that all think HIS should be off by default...
10:57:38S_a_i_n_tthat's a step closer :D
10:58:03S_a_i_n_twell, my 1g Nano is fine..but the 2g Nanos I have, none of them work with HID on.
10:58:24S_a_i_n_t(I only have 1/2g Nanos) so I can't say if it breaks any other targets.
10:58:49pixelmawhat does gevaerts have to do with it? Changing the defaults is probably quite simple. There is still MacOS 10.4 (and I saw a report in the forums about problems with it and an e200)
11:00
11:00:03S_a_i_n_tThe main bulk of HID issues I've seen have been from Nano2g users...but I have seen reports from other targets yes...can't remember which though.
11:00:03linuxstbDoes HID have any other use, apart from the obvious? Is it related to charging?
11:00:06tomersThere's also FS #10809 - Sansa E200 won't correctly connect mass storage with HID enabled
11:00:25tomersgevaerts is the USB focal person here :-)
11:00:35tomerss/person/point/
11:00:52*S_a_i_n_t wonders WTF it *is* enabled by default then...semms kinda silly to have it enabled if it knowingly breaks targets.
11:01:03***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
11:01:08S_a_i_n_t*seems
11:01:44tomersS_a_i_n_t: if it breaks 2g, then I guess it definitely should be disabled for that target. question is should it be disabled on other targets as well?
11:02:04S_a_i_n_tNo...well I don;t think so.
11:02:12S_a_i_n_tbut DEFINITELY for the Nano2g.
11:03:07tomersi can do it, but i'm not sure it this should be discussed further with other developers first. i prefer you ask gevaerts later today to disable it
11:03:42S_a_i_n_tI think the reason why nooone's paid any attention to the HID iddue with the Nano2g is that it is still "unstable"...which in some cases seems like a bit of an excuse.
11:04:36S_a_i_n_tI'll probably still be awake when gevaerts comes on...and yes, it should be discussed some more, but I doubt anyone will have any problems with it.
11:05:01S_a_i_n_tbah, s/iddue/issue/
11:06:42*tomers agrees
11:07:02linuxstbtomers: Does HID have any other use, apart from the obvious? Is it related to charging?
11:07:19tmztthis a Windows host?
11:07:37tmztand shouldn't it be enabled somewhere in configuration?
11:07:43tomerslinuxstb: It replaces charging only mode
11:08:09linuxstbSo if HID is disabled, does it still charge at full power?
11:08:23tomersi.e. when you press the appropriate button while connecting the DAP to USB, it enumerates as an HID device, and does not enumerate mass storage device
11:08:53tomersformerly (I hope i remember well) it was some sort of empty enumeration (bah, i forgot how it used to be)
11:09:43tomerslinuxstb: the old charging only mode is still there, because not all targets have support for USB interrupt transfers, therefore they don't support HID
11:09:48S_a_i_n_tthe only target that 9I know for a fact) its a BIG issue for is the Nano2g...and for now, I think it should only be disabled on that target. Unless anyone has good reason why it should be disabled on the other targets also?
11:10:05*moos would like to see usb HID disabled by default too
11:10:45S_a_i_n_tmoos: which target do you have?
11:10:46S_a_i_n_tand what problems does HID cause you?
11:10:49tomersso removing HID from nano2g is just playing a bit with the #ifdefs. That's a rather ugly task, and I think gevaerts can do it better than me, not just because i'm lazy :-) but because he knows it better
11:11:39linuxstbtomers: Ah, you're talking about disabling it at compile-time, not disabling it in the settings?
11:11:52moosS_a_i_n_t: I have plenty, but I was speaking default rockbox configuration... Then the user can still use this option by himself
11:12:27S_a_i_n_tlinuxstb: we're taling about defaulting it to "off", but not necessarily for all targets.
11:12:33S_a_i_n_tI don;'t think that is needed.
11:12:45pixelmaI think even a rare case of USB data connection not working (e.g. on some still used even though old OSs) is worth disabling it by default. If people know it's working thex can turn it on again
11:13:03pixelmas/thex/then
11:13:09linuxstbS_a_i_n_t: You are... I was asking tomers if he was...

11:13:27moospixelma: amen, I all with you
11:13:44tomerslinuxstb: mmm.. i guess you're right, but i don't know if charging only more enumerates according to the settings, i.e. you disable HID but in charging only mode it enumerates as hid. I don't know

12:43:45gevaertsThe only thing that needs to change is the default value of the setting
12:43:48S_a_i_n_tESP for the Nano2g, if for no other target.
12:44:16*gevaerts has to go now
12:45:23amiconnI think that the problem isn't hid itself, but rather enumerating as a multi-function device with both hid+msc
12:45:56 Quit gevaerts (Remote host closed the connection)
12:45:58amiconnSo if hid is disabled, it should enumerate as msc by default, and as hid only, without actually sending events, for charging only
12:47:43amiconnThe nano2g is listed as unstable, so I wouldn't change defaults just because of that
12:47:49S_a_i_n_tI'm not sure *what* the problem is...but with Nano2g with HID off it actually shows up as "RockPod 2g" (My volume lable for it), and I can access/transfer fine. With HID on however it shows up as "removable device" and I can't access/read/write to the device at all :(
12:48:42amiconnYes - so disable hid...
12:48:54S_a_i_n_tI *personally* would just like to see the default changed for the Nano2g...it would save a lot of hassle in the long run. If/when it gets sorted out it can always be changed beck.
12:49:02amiconnImo the question is whether hid should be enabled or disabled by default for *all* swusb targets
12:49:38S_a_i_n_tMy point is, new users don't know that HID is the problem...and we don;t know how many just give up because they can;t get their device to work.
12:49:44amiconnHid enabled causes problems on some older versions of MacOS - that's about the only reason to change the default for me
12:49:51S_a_i_n_tplenty enough come to the forums to seek help about it.

13:04:56stooowhat's the problem ?
13:04:58stripwaxwould it not be better for consistency to disable by default everywhere then.
13:05:13stripwaxfor simplicity of documentation at least
13:05:50stripwaxit would only be for new fresh installs, right? (if someone has existing settings that have enabled HID, hid will still be enabled). And if someone wants to use it they can just turn it on from the menu.
13:05:52S_a_i_n_tdocumentation (or updating it) seems a silly reason to deprive users of a feature that works for them
13:06:04S_a_i_n_twe just need to find out for sure where HID is failing.

13:17:16pixelmastripwax: it's not only e200s (I experienced it with my c200 and expect other Rockbox USB devices will fail as well) because the OS doesn't cope with USB composite devices (that's how it was explained to me). There was someone around here who left his device connected all the time and his computer hang during boot (my guess is the BIOS couldn't cope with composite devices)

22:37:01gevaertssaratoga: well yes, but USB disconnect does not mean end of charging
22:37:32saratogaits throw on OS disconnect rather then physical disconnect?
22:37:48gevaertsnot all players charge on USB
22:38:30saratogaare there any that don't reboot into the OF or charge?
22:38:39saratogai suppose some ipod builds

22:48:48saratogai only added the second when I realized that MSC mode doesn't seem to generate a SYS_CHARGER_DISCONNECTED event
22:49:02saratogawell is there a better place to do this?
22:49:29gevaertsthen we need to find out why SYS_CHARGER_DISCONNECTED isn't always sent, not patch things up by also handling this in unrelated places
22:49:40saratogaits never sent in MSC mode
22:49:44saratogaat least as far as I can tell

22:50:41saratogaotherwise disconnecting only generated a SYS_USB_DISCONNECTED, and even then only sometimes
22:51:10gevaertsit *always generates SYS_USB_DISCONNECTED. If not, the usb screen would stay there
22:51:13saratogawell i guess its also possible i never get SYS_USB_DISCONNECTED and occasionally do get a SYS_CHARGER_DISCONNECTED from MSC mode, but the first seems more likely given how many tiems I tried it

23:02:45gevaertspower_mgmt.c broadcasts the SYS_CHARGER_DISCONNECTED event if it detects that there's no more power on the pins. usb.c broadcasts SYS_USB_DISCONNECTED when it sees that the USB cable is gone. This is from two independent threads, so it's a matter of luck which one gets sent first
23:02:51 Join jae [0] (~jae@jaerhard.com)
23:04:21gevaertsWhile the system is in MSC mode, handle_usb_events() in usb_screen.c handles the events for the GUI thread (it's called from gui_usb_screen_run(), which is called from default_event_handler_ex()). That one ignores all events except SYS_USB_DISCONNECTED

23:08:00gevaertsThe quick and easy fix is of course to copy the SYS_CHARGER_DISCONNECTED handling to handle_usb_events()
23:08:52gevaertswell, your new bit anyway. car_adapter_mode_processing() is useless there. If you're in MSC mode, car adapter mode doesn't really mean anything
23:09:48gevaertsThat's probably the best solution in the short term
23:10:02 Part froggyman
23:10:47*gevaerts doesn't really like the SYS_* handling in rockbox in general
23:11:01saratogagevaerts: will that handle charging from a non-USB port?
23:11:28iqFlynDice, any starting point? Not that I have done this before but I can try.
23:12:02gevaertssaratoga: non-USB charging while not USB-connected should work fine with your existing changes only (because SYS_CHARGER_DISCONNECTED is received while handling events using default_event_handler_ex())
23:12:35saratogaah ok so leave that part in default_event_handler_ex
23:12:40saratogai'll update the patch
23:12:53FlynDiceiq: can you apply a patch?
23:12:54gevaertsAdding SYS_CHARGER_DISCONNECTED handling to handle_usb_events() as well will make it also work if whatever charger is used is disconnected while a USB connection is active
23:13:27iqFlynDice, I am willing to :)
23:17:37FlynDiceiq: apply this to /firmware/target/arm/mmu-arm.S http://pastie.org/846128 it will disable both instruction and data caches
23:19:10saratogaok the patch is updated
23:19:19saratogait probably still doesn't handle the ipods right though
23:19:46saratogamight be worth resetting the counter on USB insert as well so that it gets reset if the device boots into the OF for charging

23:30:33saratogait'll still need ifdef's for the ipods though right?
23:30:50saratogaor is SYS_CHARGER_DISCONNECTED not generated if theres no charging
23:31:06gevaertsthe ipods are a bit of a special case
23:31:33gevaertsI;d do nothing special for them. The entire system assumes that they charge. The fact that they don't is a bug, but it's somewhere else
23:32:11gevaertsThe software believes that they charge, and they (sometimes) do, just very slowly
23:33:08gevaertsI don't think it's a good idea to go and add #ifdefs all over the code (not just here, there's more places that would need them to be consistent) that we then have to not forget to remove later on
23:33:18saratogaok
23:33:37gevaertsespecially since Torne is going to fix this any day now :)
23:34:59saratogai guess the if (charger_inserted()) check in screens.c needs to go too

23:37:11saratogai don't think i'm changing what it means
