02:03:05Tuggerssaratoga_: I'm interested in doing audio codec optimizations in asm
02:05:19saratoga_why that project?
02:06:34Tuggersbecause I'm interested in embedded systems and speed optimization
02:07:17TuggersI do have MIPS experience, but AFAIK most music players use ARM
02:07:39Tuggersand from what I've seen they're fairly similar
02:07:57saratoga_somewhat, although learning arm isn't very hard
02:08:16saratoga_codecs mostly just do load > mul > store, so you need about 10 instructions
02:08:42saratoga_do you have any supported target?
02:08:55TuggersI don't
02:09:04Tuggersif my proposal is accepted I'll buy one
02:09:25saratoga_do you have a phone or mp3 player capable of running 3rd party software?
02:10:28TuggersMy dad has an android phone, and I'm sure I could get an android phone on our verizon plan if I asked
02:10:58saratoga_where are you in the US?
02:11:02Tuggersbut on the front page it says that android is "unusable"
02:11:04TuggersTexas
02:11:18saratoga_well if you just want to do development it doesn't really matter how polished the software is
02:12:02saratoga_you can probably buy a sansa clip for ~ $20 if you keep your eyes open, might be a good idea
02:12:38Tuggersthe advantage of running it on android, I assume, is that you get access to all of the arm instructions up to v7
02:14:02saratoga_yeah, although for optimization purposes that may be less interesting
02:14:14saratoga_its not clear to me how useful optimizing things that run so quickly is on 1+GHz processors
02:14:32saratoga_although i suppose adding things like NEON might be interesting
02:15:05saratoga_usually though its arm7/9/11 devices that benefit the most
02:15:30saratoga_i don't know what the situation with battery life is even like on Android at this point
02:19:29Tuggerswhat would be a good way to learn about armv4/v5/v6 programming?
02:20:01Tuggersany guides? or should I just look at the ARM manuals and the Rockbox source?
02:20:02saratoga_Tuggers: best way is to learn by doing with the arm instruction reference
02:20:21saratoga_see: http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/TargetSpecificOptimization
02:20:29saratoga_the instruction reference card linked there is really handy
02:21:59saratoga_have you done anything with codecs or dsp before?
02:22:17Tuggersno
02:22:36Tuggersbut I have programmed for the NES and its 6502-based processor
02:22:59saratoga_so i guess you've done a little fixed point stuff before?
02:23:13Tuggersyeah
02:23:55Tuggersin my computer architecture class I used fixed point to store a value in dollars and cents
02:24:38saratoga_which school are you at?
02:24:44Tuggersuniversity of texas at dallas
02:25:19saratoga_ah ok, i know some people at UTA
02:27:14saratoga_anyway, since thats a pretty open ended project, it wouldn't be a bad idea to look at some of the codecs and come up with a good plan
02:27:18 Quit Zarggg (Quit: Rebooting client...)
02:27:40saratoga_we get a few people apply for that project every year and most of them don't convince anyone that they can do anything useful
02:28:21Tuggersok, so what I can do now is read the arm reference and the Rockbox codec source
02:28:23Tuggersthank you
02:28:32saratoga_i think the codec source is probably more useful
02:29:34saratoga_libmad, libfaad, libalac are probably good places to start
02:31:03saratoga_ liba52 doesn't need optimization, but its such a simple codec that it also might not be a bad place to start, and i'm sure theres low hanging fruit there
02:31:30saratoga_its pretty much a textbook codec, so pretty easy to understand
02:32:10saratoga_libwmavoice is currently not converted to fixed point, so theres that as well

09:01:37[Saint]If "long power" didn't work, then I've no idea what kind of state the player must have gotten itself into.
09:02:16[Saint]AFAIK "long power" should always work.
09:03:16[Saint]'should' being the operative word.
09:06:02blind_testerI pressed the power button for several seconds. Don't know how long "long power" is :-) ... I tried maybe 5 seconds.
09:06:26blind_testerSaint: I pressed the power button for several seconds. Don't know how long "long power" is :-) ... I tried maybe 5 seconds.
09:06:46[Saint]~30 seconds
09:07:21blind_testerah... ok thank you. I didn't find this information in the manual - but i searched only for reset! :-(
09:09:27[Saint]It should be in the manual, but I'm not sure how hard/easy it is to dig up via the search function. Especially if you're not sure which exact keyword you need to be searching.
09:10:17[Saint]Even I have trouble finding things I know exist in the manuals sometimes, human error on my part I'm sure. :)
09:11:12blind_testerSaint: There i can read: Long Power -> Shutdown Rockbox. It seems to be the normal shutdown sequence... normally i must press it ~ 2-3 seconds. This did not work.
09:13:17blind_testerSaint: I think the device was frozen. No way to get out of it. I will avoid copying images to the device in the future. This will help.
09:19:14CtcpIgnored 1 channel CTCP requests in 0 seconds at the last flood
09:19:14*[Saint] isn't so sure about that.
09:20:11[Saint]The type of digital media you chose to store on the device shouldn't have anything to do with it crashing or not.
09:24:49blind_testerSaint: It crashed after the viewing of a jpg. The image flickered... after coming back to the directory list all was frozen. I think this was the problem. Ok i go now... Bye.

14:08:40pixelmadfkt: hmm, not sure if a new bootloader has been released: http://svn.rockbox.org/viewvc.cgi?view=rev&revision=30018
14:08:53pixelmait talks about being "optional"
14:09:06dfktpixelma, i checked svn, seems you have to uncomment a line for dualboot
14:09:30dfktso i guess the target status page is still somewhat correct
14:09:31pixelmawell yes, same result here :)
14:09:37dfktoops
14:09:40dfktjinx
14:10:42pixelmaok, then I misremembered because my M5 was also the test target for the bootloader and thus having dual boot
14:10:52bluebrotherhmm, that means we need to update Rockbox Utility as well ...
14:11:12bluebrothersince I assume we can't distribute a pre-patched bootloader
14:11:23*bluebrother remembers
14:13:12pixelmabluebrother: you mean the Utility should offer both?
14:13:38bluebrotherpixelma: yes, or at least offer the possibility to patch a firmware with the dual-boot bootloader
14:13:59bluebrotherso you can either provide an OF and get dual-boot, or not provide an OF file and get single boot
14:14:24pixelmasounds fair
14:14:27bluebrotherwe could of course keep dual-boot for those targets as advanced only that is only supported if you install manually yourself
14:15:33bluebrotherthough for now I'm trying to get libmp3lame support going. Way simpler setup than using lame as executable
14:18:15KohlrabiIs there a page which lists the current build number of bootloaders?
14:18:55KohlrabiSomeone told me USB support was fixed for Clip+, and I recently upgraded Rockbox on my device.
14:19:20KohlrabiBut I don't want to run another installation just to find out nothing has changed :)
14:20:40dfktKohlrabi - http://svn.rockbox.org/viewvc.cgi/trunk/bootloader/sansa_as3525.c?view=log
14:20:50bluebrotheryou can check the timestamp of the bootloader on the server and compare to the timestamp Rockbox Utility stored
14:21:43Kohlrabiah, OK, thanks
14:21:54pixelmadfkt: but has a new bootloader been released? ;)
14:22:10bluebrothersince we can't extract the version number from the binary we store the server timestamp. Which should be unique enough
14:22:25pixelmaor does it need to be compiled on your own
14:22:29dfktpixelma, i do not know these things, always build them myself :)
14:23:17dfktfunman released a "v4.0" bootloader for the ams sansas, which should be the same as last svn

15:26:40Avehi, I have a sansa device that always autocreates few directories when its in usb mode
15:26:59Aveis there a way to remove them somehow automatically too, like scripting
15:28:29kugela lua script can do it probably, but you need to run it manually
15:32:44dfktthe disktidy plugin could remove them as well
15:32:46Aveno "autoexec"
15:33:41Avedisktidy sounds good
15:34:38[Saint]Autorock dicktidy
15:34:49[Saint]*disktidy
15:35:49Aveis autorock enabled in normao builds
15:35:56[Saint]I can't remember the exact naming scheme for autorock, but, someone will.

15:38:44[Saint]They do no harm.

17:29:21CIA-88New commit by pamaury (r31596): fuze+: #define TARGET_EXTRA_THREADS because of the extra touchpad thread. Should fix mpeg player not working
17:30:27pamaurymortalis: not sure but: HAVE_LCD_SLEEP if you implement lcd_sleep (put lcd in sleep state but still active I guess). HAVE_LCD_ENABLE if you implement lcd_enable (can turn lcd on and off). Don't know of HAVE_LCD_SHUTDOWN
17:31:26CIA-88r31596 build result: All green
17:32:55kugelmortalis: LCD_SLEEP is deep sleep that might take long to wake up from(it comes with a setting to turn off), LCD_ENABLE is the same but no setting waking up is fast (you can also use both if you have some light sleep and deep sleep). LCD_SHUTDOWN is entirely different, there's a shutdown function that needs to be called when the player shuts down (so the opposite to init())

21:02:08kugeljhMikeS: it will work but defeats the purpose of my work
21:02:35kugelI also find it less than ideal that we have asm code which we have no C equivalent for
21:03:27pamauryjlbiasini: I have never used the mepg plugin so I don't know if it's supposed to work well or not, perhaps it's not related to the fuze+
21:04:18jlbiasiniyeah as is it is not usuable
21:04:28jlbiasinibut I don't know either
21:05:15jhMikeSkugel: to what extent should we concern ourselves with that? every single thing?

21:08:16bluebrother^interesting. Creating a voice file on Windows: 0:10 / 0:40 / 1:00 (libmp3lame, libmp3lame w/ byte order code, running lame directly)
21:08:26bluebrother^so it's 6x faster with libmp3lame.
21:08:53bluebrother^on Linux it's almost no increase in speed: 0:05 / 0:22 / 0:07
21:09:25bluebrother^and OS X ... seems to be worse using libmp3lame, which is strange.
21:09:35jhMikeSkugel: I'm sure alot could be, but why bother? do we need C code for the x5 lcd driver? the whole memframe idea was the presence of optimized assembly already available to any device using a memory framebuffer
21:09:46*bluebrother^ goes trying that again
21:10:59jhMikeSso, if the memframe c-code weren't shared (as it wasn't previously), would this be a concern at all?
21:11:33bluebrother^oh
21:11:41 Quit mortalis (Quit: KVIrc 4.1.1 Equilibrium http://www.kvirc.net/)
21:11:49*bluebrother^ just got the encoding error on OS X that seems to be Windows only
21:14:35kugeljhMikeS: I wouldnt have noticed it at least :)
21:14:57kugelI want to use it on the ypr0 which doesnt have ASM enabled yet
21:15:03bluebrother^hmm. 0:07 / 0:35 / 0:07 on OS X.
21:15:16bluebrother^so running the executable isn't really slower
21:15:23jhMikeSkugel: well then, I guess it's there's now a reason
21:15:33bluebrother^OTOH that's all stopwatch-timed, so not extremely exact.
21:15:51chkktri_фрф
21:15:53chkktri_aha*
21:15:56kugeljhMikeS: well, yes and no, it'll eventually enable asm :)
21:16:08chkktri_looks like this happens only with big files
21:16:27chkktri_should i open an issue on flyspray?
21:16:28jhMikeSwhat arch is it? that code is well proven by now for ARM
21:16:41chkktri_(that's all about TTA playback problem)
21:17:08*bluebrother^ considers keeping the old code on OS X −− getting the correct dylib is (unfortunately) a bit of a pain on OS X as well
21:17:17kugeljhMikeS: it is arm
21:22:48Mirbluebrother^: why mp3
21:22:57Mirwhy no FLAC 8D
21:23:02bluebrother^Mir: ?
21:23:03Mir<3 flac
21:23:37bluebrother^I'm working on voicefile generation. For HWCODEC devices we need to use mp3. For SWCODEC speex.
21:23:45bluebrother^flac would be too huge
21:23:58Miroh
21:23:59bluebrother^since it's only about voice clips size is more important than quality
21:24:27bluebrother^the problem is that setting up lame is a bit ... well, ugly in Rockbox Utility right now.
21:24:34Mirahh
21:24:50Mirand ogg isnt satisfactory?
21:24:58Miri hate ogg btw
21:25:00bluebrother^so I tried using libmp3lame instead of calling the lame binary. Which is much more elegant
21:25:07*bluebrother^ uses vorbis all the time
21:25:17Miri rather use flac than ogg
21:25:26bluebrother^how am I supposed to play a vorbis file on a device that has a hardware mp3 chip?
21:25:30Miri will use wma before ogg
21:25:39Mirahh
21:25:41Mirgood point
21:25:45bluebrother^maybe, but I don't care about that :)
21:25:45Mirouch
21:25:53Mirwhat a sharp point ;)
21:25:56 Part jlbiasini
21:26:04bluebrother^If I want lossy I use vorbis. If I want lossless ... well, flac maybe.
21:26:32bluebrother^either case, that doesn't make a difference for the actual problem I'm looking at.
21:27:25bluebrother^the annoying thing on OS X is that I have to handle endianess issues (since ppc is BE) and the available libmp3lame.dylib binaries are either placed in the wrong location or use the wrong architecture :(
21:27:59Mirwait are you on a G4/G5?
21:28:08bluebrother^no
21:28:17bluebrother^but Rockbox Utility still supports OS X 10.4
21:28:21bluebrother^i.e. ppc
21:28:23Mirthen you are on a intel mac
21:28:33bluebrother^well, yes.
21:28:35Mirsome PPC
21:28:51Mirfor example 10.4 WONT install onmy G4 tower
21:28:51*bluebrother^ used Rosetta to debug some PPC code on an intel Mac some time ago
21:29:17bluebrother^well, Rockbox Utility is built for 10.4+. And 10.4 also supports ppc.
21:29:26bluebrother^so I need to handle ppc as well.
21:29:29Mirand to get it to install will require 800$ worth ofa single upgrade
21:29:36bluebrother^though maybe we should drop support for ppc ...
21:30:05Mirfirst find out how many PPC users there are before hapazardly dropping support
21:30:28bluebrother^that's the problematic part :)
21:30:35Mirwhat is
21:30:42bluebrother^since I assume that Apple's numbers cannot be trusted on that.
21:30:58Mirmaking a poll to find out how many PPC users there are
21:31:06bluebrother^but dropping ppc support for Rockbox Utility wouldn't be _that_ much of a deal-breaker.
21:31:13Miror tracking the download # for the PPC version?
21:31:18bluebrother^people can always use a different machine or a different OS
21:31:25Miryea
21:31:43Mirand te only reason i wold ask fr a PPC rockbox is lnnux ppc
21:31:44bluebrother^and the ppc machines aren't being sold since a couple of years, as well as not being supported by recent OS X versions
21:32:05Mir10.5.4 was the last
21:32:12bluebrother^though as long as it's not soo much of a problem I
21:32:17bluebrother^'d like to keep ppc support
21:32:26Mirrequred a 1.6GHZ G4/G5 or faste
21:32:29bluebrother^the annoying thing is this dylib issue
21:36:14bluebrother^hmm, I could also hardcode the path the Audacity dylib uses since that's not in the search path.
21:36:21bluebrother^but that's pretty ugly too
21:36:44*bluebrother^ decides to let this issue wait until tomorrow.

22:27:26kugeljhMikeS: lcd_update() works with a simple memcpy loop, as expected, but I don't think I'm smart enough for the yuv part
22:28:26funmankugel: there's a C imple;entation already no?
22:29:31kugelfunman: not for lcd-as-memframe.S
22:29:54funmanbut you can move out the yuv code and reuse it?
22:30:30funmanthere's a loop which updates 2 rows at a time
22:30:54funmandirectly in the framebuffer
22:31:40funmanhum i see lcd_blit_yuv() in lcd-memframe.c
22:31:43jhMikeSwhy not just enable the use of lcd-as-memframe.S?
22:31:57kugeljhMikeS: it seems the sdl code also does 2 lines at once?
22:32:50jhMikeSdoes it?
22:33:25saratogathe imx233 does hardware YUV conversion right?
22:34:59kugeljhMikeS: the one I'm looking at yes
22:36:33saratogaah yes, manual says YUV, rescaling and alpha bending in hardware, neat
22:38:28jhMikeSis it the same IPU as the beast?
22:38:38saratogahttp://www.freescale.com/files/dsp/doc/ref_manual/IMX23RM.pdf
22:38:42saratogai'm not sure what hte beast uses
22:38:46kugelthe imx37 in this ypr0 also has this
22:39:01saratogaprobably not though since its originally from sigmatel, unless they licensed it from freescale
22:39:10jhMikeSI would like an LCD driver that can use alternate framebuffers so I can use overlays
22:39:51jhMikeSit might be possible to render fonts with it too
22:40:20saratogait apparently can do hardware overlays
22:40:44saratogaThe PXP supports up to eight overlays that can be used to merge graphic data with video (or other graphic data). Each overlay consists of a rectangular area that is a multiple of eight pixels in both the vertical and horizontal directions
22:41:00kugelfunman, jhMikeS: appears to work in test_fps. need to check a real movie
22:41:01jhMikeSwhich sectin is it in?
22:42:33saratogajhMikeS: 17.2.5
22:42:48kugeljhMikeS: JdGordon was working on that IIRC
22:43:12pamaurysaratoga: iirc, it doesn't have a YUV conversion that is usable, for which purpose would you like it ?
22:43:38jhMikeSsaratoga: looks nothing like programming the i.MX31's IPU :)
22:43:45saratogapamaury: RGB > YUV in mpegplayer would be pretty useful
22:43:51saratogaerr otherway :)
22:44:00pamauryiirc, it doesn't have such a thing but let me check
22:44:20saratogathe manual says it does, although its possible that sandisk removed it
22:44:21pamauryand yes indeed, it does
22:44:27pamauryusing the PXP
22:44:39saratoga17.2.4 Colorspace Conversion
22:44:43jhMikeSwouldn't be such a bad thing to draw and decode in parallel
22:45:02saratogainterestingly, it can also do bilinear filtering and colorspace conversion on a frame
22:45:27funmanit would be cool if it had mpeg2video decoding
22:45:32saratogawhich would be extremely useful if we ever got support for things like .vob files or DVD isos in mpegplayer :)
22:45:32funmanso we could #define HWCODEC
22:45:35pamaurywould it require a hack to use it in mpegplayer ?
22:45:54funmansaratoga: vob should work i think
22:45:59jhMikeSif something can do all lcd stuff with hardware acceleration, that might be a good idea to work that out
22:46:17 Quit y4n (Quit: PANTS OFF!)
22:46:41saratogai guess the smart way would be to make the YUV blit operations use the hardware, although i'm not sure API-wise how easy that is
22:47:23funmandepends what the HW interface is
22:48:23jhMikeSperhaps the lcd api needs to mature to accomodate such things
22:48:53pamauryI don't remember how the pxp works, if it interacts with the lcdif or just blits to a buffer

22:50:10saratogafunman: from their example code, you give it a pointer to Y, U, and V tables, and an empty buffer
22:50:23saratogait then fills the buffer with the decoded data
22:51:00saratogayou can also specify the rescaling ratio while it does this
22:51:24funmanlooks simple enough to not need new API
22:52:14saratogayeah actually their example code is remarkably simple
22:52:25saratogaAMS could learn from these guys
22:52:28funmanlcd_blit_yuv converts and write to lcd in one shot, HW would convert the video and then call lcd_update(_rect_ though
22:52:53jhMikeSrendering the OSD as an overlay would be nice, rather than cropping the YUV
22:53:00*funman looks at other -target.h files
22:53:46pamauryI'll see what I can do to speed up lcd_yuv_blit if mpegpolayer uses that
22:53:47funmanthe publicspi.h only has a "#include "spi-target.h"
22:54:27pamauryI also saw interesting undocumented registers in the DCP that look like colorspace conversion, might be interesting
22:54:39saratogapamaury: yuv_blit tends to be quite slow, so if the hardware can do it, then we should use it
22:57:02kugeljhMikeS: lcd-memframe deals with orientation for yuv already right?
22:57:34kugelI still seem to need the corresponding #ifdef using the sdl code
