02:46:03[Saint]moben: like a couple of people tried to say, what you should be doing, is setting up different viewports for your "dynamic" content, as opposed to trying to position the content inside the viewport(s) dynamically.
02:47:50[Saint]So then your condition only becomes %?<tag><%Vd(foo|%Vd(bar)>

03:04:07[Saint]"I'll claim (quite falsely) to be a nubile 16 year old girl if that will get me help. "
03:08:14mobenheh, maybe I should have tried that too ;)
03:15:06[Saint]Hum...
03:15:43[Saint]Classic is refusing the play a reasonable portion of the test_files.
03:16:02[Saint]I noticed this the other day, but it is barfing on ore files that I initially thought.
03:17:06[Saint]Some refuse to play at all, and skip to the next track immediately, while others (wmapro) output an IEM killing noise of pain and terror - regardless of the current volume.
03:17:43[Saint]at -60db ("mute" for the Classic), wmapro playback is unbearable.
03:18:03*[Saint] has no other files of this format other than the test files

03:28:33moben%Vl/%Vd doesn't work in the sbs?
03:28:59[Saint]...is, is that a question?
03:29:21[Saint]Oh, wow...I read that wrong. Derp.
03:29:24[Saint]Yes, it does.
03:29:55[Saint]The .sbs is just like any other themeable screen.
03:30:14[Saint]with the exception of the UI viewport.
03:30:35[Saint](The UI viewport houses the menu/lists)
03:31:01mobenhmmm. if I do %V(..) it works, while if I do %Vl(a,..) %Vd(a), it doesn't
03:32:12mobenhere is what I'm doing: https://raw.github.com/gist/4459313/
03:33:04mobenI wanted to make the clock viewport conditional on %?cf, so that I don't waste space for the 24h case
03:33:29moben(make the clock smaller in that case -> more space for the title)
03:33:43[Saint]You're not using a UI viewport, so, the UI viewport is drawing fullscreen.
03:34:23[Saint]protip: you cannot overlap viewports (with one exception).
03:34:41mobenisn't %Vi the UI viewport?
03:35:03[Saint]Yes, but, you've commented it out.
03:35:20[Saint]Oh, shit...my bad.
03:35:35[Saint]hard to read this with lots of commented sections.
03:35:52mobensorry for that, I blame the original author though :P

03:56:00[Saint]I can't see at the present why that wouldn't work, but, I'm a bit distracted.
03:56:18[Saint]If you run this in the simulator, it should be telling you exactly what is wrong if it is a syntax error.
03:57:47[Saint]thought I had a bit more time for "stuff", but, the SO just got home.
03:59:04mobenI won't distract you any further then, have to go to bed anyway ;)
03:59:37mobenThough the simulator didn't mention anything, so I would still welcome comments if anyone finds time

13:17:13doomgiverhello, my sansa clip+ is not being detected by the rockbox installer
13:17:38doomgiverdoes it need a microSD card, in order to be detected/installed?
13:18:01doomgiverwindows 7 32 bit, sansa clip+ 2 gb, no SD card
13:20:05funmanno, it doesn't
13:21:30doomgiverhmm, and one more thing, if it is of any use, this clip+ does not recognize SD cards (card is accessible both, while plugged in windows and while plugged in player, from windows)
13:21:56funmanmaybe it's broken then
13:22:02doomgiverbut the clip+ does not show any sd card, when i try to access it.
13:22:13doomgiveroh god, NO
13:22:26doomgiverwell, i did buy it from a friend
13:22:40doomgiverok, thanks, i got my answer
13:24:38funmanI can't debug vlc plugin crashes within firefox
13:24:45funmanoops wrong channel.. sorry
13:32:30bluebrotherthe card could have filesystem errors that confuse the clip+ firmware but Windows tolerates.
13:33:06bluebrotheralso, Rockbox Utility can't detect all players reliably. Not sure about the clip+, but I wouldn't be surprised if detecting its mountpoint isn't possible
13:33:19bluebrother(due to the fact that there is nothing on the player we can use to identify it)
13:33:29bluebrother(nothinhg as in files in the filesystem)
13:38:18doomgiverok, i changed the mode to MSC, detected and installing
13:39:06doomgiverdetected the mountpoint, but autodetect button crashes the application, and i have to manually select my device from the list (the maufacturer list)
13:41:07[Saint]Maybe RbUtil should give a prompt for that?

13:41:28[Saint]I mean, if people read the manual, it'd be fine...but, that's a pretty big if.
13:41:50[Saint]wrt: switching to MSC
13:43:17[Saint]Hummm...no, that wouldn't really work. There's no way for it to really tell the situation it would be applicable to display such a prompt in.
13:46:38doomgiverwell, the manual straight off starts with manual install, with no "these things are REQUIRED" section.
13:47:09doomgiver^^ i meant about that RButil thingy
13:47:26doomgiveranyway, thanks
13:47:32doomgiveri'll rtfm the NEXT time
13:47:42[Saint]"Note: The following steps require you to change the setting in Settings → System Settings → USB Mode to MSC from within the original firmware. Further note that all original firmware settings will be lost immediately after patching the bootloader, so you may need to correct this setting again after installing rockbox.

13:48:58[Saint]errrr...funman?
13:49:40funmancommenting on doomgiver who says this text should be "REQUIRED"
13:49:53[Saint]Oh, sorry.
13:50:10doomgivermy mistake
13:50:22doomgiveri just sifted through the manual
13:50:28doomgiverbad habit, i know
13:50:33[Saint]Yeah :)
13:50:41funmanhttp://download.rockbox.org/daily/manual/rockbox-sansaclipzip/rockbox-buildch2.html#x4-90002.2.1d
13:50:47funmanConnect your player to the computer via USB in MSC mode as described in the manual that came with your player.
13:50:54funmanthat's the only sentence I see related to msc?
13:51:16funmanhmm sorry it's there for clip+
13:52:09funmannot sure if the same sentence applies to Clip Zip (Sandisk moved/renamed the option in some devices)
13:52:31funmandoomgiver: bad habit true, but nevertheless a common one so we should take it in account
13:52:38doomgiveryeah
13:53:12[Saint]RbUtil kinda opens the floodgates for the "maybe slightly less technically minded" ;)
13:53:27*[Saint] shakes a fist at bluebrother's monster
13:53:47doomgiveri just saw "DRM", "usb connection". thought ok, i dont need to worry about either. i dont have drm infested crap, and i do have a usb connection, then moved on.
13:54:05doomgiveri dont like the way you are accusing me of being "maybe slightly less technically minded"
13:54:24[Saint]Well, that actually sits kinda badly for you...if you read the USB section?
13:54:32[Saint]The note I pasted above is from that section.
13:54:57doomgiveraccuse them who cry out for help. i installed RB WITHOUT help from you lot.
13:55:06doomgiverstop patronizing

13:55:35doomgiveri take offense.
13:55:38 Part doomgiver
13:56:36funmani would guess especially the technically minded people do not read the manual

13:57:30funmanand since windows almost shows no difference between mtp and msc device (except the lack of a device letter) it's hard to guess that you're in MTP mode
13:58:41[Saint]My "nerd experience" must be /quite/ different.
13:59:05[Saint]There's two people in my hackers group that haven't installed Rb yet because they haven't finished reading the manual yet.
13:59:26[Saint]and yes, on the latter.
13:59:45[Saint]But afaik there's no way for RbUtil to guess which mode the player is in.
14:00
14:00:33funmanthere is (different pid for MTP mode)
14:00:38funmanusbid=0x07817433
14:00:38funmanusberror=0x07817432
14:00:55funmanthat's for the clipv1
14:00:59funmanusbid=0x078174d1
14:01:00funmanusberror=0x078174d0
14:01:09funmanclip+ msc = 0x74d1, mtp = 0x74d0
14:01:56funmanthough I guess rbutil uses the usberror field to make sure you did not select a wrong model (ipod nano2g vs ipod nano1g)
14:02:18funmanbut for Sansas it would be impossible, since there's no mount point / device letter when the device is in mtp mode?
14:08:56[Saint]Perhaps it could give some form of Sansa-specific hint if auto-detect fails?
14:08:58[Saint]"Do you have <foo_device>? If so, please ensure it is in MSC mode <LINK> and try again"

14:45:35bedheadI wastold in the tutorial not to do that.
14:45:43gevaertsWhat tutorial?
14:45:52bedheadThat and the first time i autodetected it decided to freeze the program.
14:45:56gevaertsAlways use autodetect unless it fails in some way
14:46:11[Saint]And, what tutorial?
14:46:25[Saint]If we saw that anywhere, we need to correct it.

14:51:21wenceslausDoes anyone have any experience installing Rockbox on the 7G '09 160GB iPod Classic? The Rockbox.org wiki lists it as unusable at the moment, apparently with charging issues, but I've heard of others successfully using it.
14:51:49[Saint]wenceslaus: the classes there are not literal.
14:52:00[Saint]unusable doesn't necessarily mean "you cannot use it".
14:52:33[Saint]It simply means it doesn't meet the requirements of unstable/stable yet.
14:52:35wenceslausI understand that, but is there any information on what exactly the battery problems are?
14:52:41[Saint]it's kinda non-obvious, I know.
14:52:48[Saint]There are none.

15:05:09[Saint]bedhead: check the original firmware
15:05:29[Saint]V1 == 1.XX.XX, V2 == 2.XX.XX
15:05:31TheSeven[Saint]: I haven't run into any, but i'm mostly using mp3 and vorbis
15:06:01TheSevenanyway, back when i ported it I did codec performance tests and didn't notice issues

15:07:37bedheadV02.03.33a
15:07:50TheSeventhat's a v2 then
15:07:57[Saint]I can test on N2G in the morning, I'll leave a note here, or possibly open a bug report if I find more.

17:26:31bluebrotherwell, autodetection is something that needs rework ...
17:26:44bluebrotheron some players we tell the user the player is in mtp mode (IIRC)
17:27:13[Saint]Oh, no, that's not why I called it a monster. I theorized that RbUtil opened the floodgates for not needing to read the manual.
17:27:14bluebrotheractually, that should work for the clip+
17:27:32bluebrother // treat all other errors as MTP device for now.
17:27:54bluebrotherwhere "all other" is all errors that are not a MacPod error
17:28:24bluebrotherwhich means that in the case earlier Rockbox Utility should have presented a dialog box telling that the player is in MTP mode and needs to get changed to MSC first
17:28:40[Saint]Hum, I was unaware it did that. Perhaps the poster gleefully disregarded the prompt.
17:28:44bluebrotherof course unless there is a bug that prevents this from working :)
17:28:58bluebrotherdid someone tell something about a crash earlier?
17:29:37bluebrotherI could imagine something causing a crash, resulting in the user not seeing that dialog box
17:29:48bluebrotherbut in general this issue has been accounted for ...
17:30:33bluebrotherhmm. No, nothing crash related in the backlog. Just a "doesn't recognize". Gnah.
17:30:41bluebrotherMaybe Sandisk changed USB IDs
17:31:08bluebrotherbut if there are new USB IDs and nobody reports them ...
17:34:28[Saint]bluebrother: I thought the same thing, about someone mentioning a crash, when you mentioned it. I had a brief look and I missed it at first, but, one was reported.
17:34:30[Saint][01:39:07] <doomgiver> detected the mountpoint, but autodetect button crashes the application, and i have to manually select my device from the list (the maufacturer list)

19:20:15bluebrotherpamaury: for most devices we cannot check this.
19:21:27pamauryok but my question is: if the bootloader installer support this, does the software use this information or not. If I understand the code correctly it seems to be completely unsupported.
19:22:19bluebrotherthe bootloader installer only checks if a bootloader is installed. It cannot detect the version of the bootloader
19:22:41bluebrotherfor one, we don't have any information in the bootloader to (reliably) retrieve the version number, like in a specific place in the binary
19:22:58bluebrothersecond, on most players we can't access the bootloader file after it has been installed
19:23:18bluebrotheras a result we simply put the timestamp of the file on the server in the installation log
19:23:33bluebrotherwe could use that information and check if the file on the server is newer. But that is not implemented.
19:23:50bluebrotherso in other words: yes, it is completely unsupported :)
19:24:49pamauryon imx233, I see possible ways of implementing this
19:25:04pamaurybut that's probably an exception
19:25:35bluebrotherwell, if we can implement it in a way that works with the current implementation I don't have any objections to extending that :)
19:26:24[Saint]Could the bootloader generate a file of the storage partition?
19:26:36[Saint]*on the
19:27:04bluebrothersure, but that's not really reliable. If someone deletes that file (or messes with it) ...
19:27:17bluebrotherotoh ... do our bootloaders have write support?
19:27:28[Saint]Pass, that's why I asked :)
19:27:48[Saint]It's not really reliable, but, it's better than nothing, no?
19:28:12[Saint]just to use as a "there may be a newer version available" check.
19:28:31pamauryon imx233 you could do this because the standard sdk (and thus most OF) support r/w to arbitrary partition, including the bootloader one. And if rockbox is already running, it could either emulate the same thing or write a file with this information. That would require implementing vendor SCSI on both windows and linux though
19:30:10bluebrotherand OS X :o
19:30:19bluebrotherwhich is a pain.
19:31:23pamauryyeah, but on some devices (zen xfi2) that's also the only way you can rewrite the bootloader
19:31:30pamaury:(
19:31:45bluebrotherso ... don't support those devices! ;-)
19:31:53[Saint]Hahahaha
19:33:51pamauryactually i'm lying a bit, the zen xfi2 has a recovery mode so we could ask the user to enter recovery mode then send a binary to handle the upgrade
19:34:09[Saint]similar to the Classic
19:34:25[Saint]wrt: needing manual intervention to install
19:36:25bluebrotherhmm, writing a unit test for the HttpGet class is interesting. Starts to show some ... interesting behaviour in some cases ;-)

20:41:34bluebrotherthe only "problem" is that the output file is bmp :)
20:41:49bluebrotherwe could also use SDL_image to load the background image for the sim from a png graphic.
20:41:52[Saint]Oh? Huh...is there actually a "grab a screenshot" button?
20:42:17bluebrotherthough that would add another dependency. I wouldn't mind this, but perhaps someone else does?
20:42:23bluebrotheryes there is.
20:42:40[Saint]Well, I'll be damned. I had no idea.
20:42:53[Saint]The sim suffers from an amazingly bad lack of documentation.

20:44:13[Saint]I didn't know that one though, thanks.
