#rockbox log for 2013-11-22

00:00:12coppergood night
00:00:15[Saint]ANd it is possible to remove the Apple firmware, and it will actually increase the boot time by a fairly considerable amount doing so.
00:00:23[Saint]I'll get you the link. One second.
00:00:36GLC-ok so the rockbox system/os then finds music files and arranges them to some kind of library?
00:01:26[Saint]Rockbox has a file borwser, and a database that uses track metadata.
00:01:48[Saint]http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/IpodPatcher#Advanced_Rockbox_install_methods_with_ipodpatcher <−− here is the link you would need to completely remove the Apple firmware, should you want to.
00:01:49wodz[Saint]: you mean decrease boot time, right?
00:02:02[Saint]wodz: errr, yes. I do. Whoops.
00:02:41*gevaerts recommends going with the standard installation method at first
00:02:42GLC-but wouldn't it be good to get rid of apple? i didn't bought ipod back in the day because it was Apple or ipod, it was slim sleek nice design 30GB MP3 player affordable price. so this Rockbox thing really sounds good, because i wanna sync with WMP12
00:02:42[Saint]From that link, I use option: 4) OSOS contains only Rockbox
00:03:15GLC-standard? but it installs radio too? there is no radio.. in that model
00:03:30GLC-thanks for the link Saint
00:03:37[Saint]There is no real reason to remove the Apple firmware, ROckbox will boot by default anyway and you still have the option of booting the Apple firmware should you chose to.
00:04:08[Saint]But if you know you will never use the Apple firmware, there's no real point in keeping it there either I guess.
00:04:32 Quit ender` (Quit: The process takes just over six seconds, and would sound like a coffee machine passing an aluminum baseball bat if there were any atmosphere to carry the sound. -- Howard Tyler: Schlock Mercenary)
00:04:34 Quit petur (Quit: Leaving)
00:05:05gevaertsGLC-: there is a radio in some accessories
00:05:05GLC-yeah I dunno, can I fuck up the drive? Couldn't I just reload the original firmware with iTunes?
00:05:33GLC-gevaerts, ah ok, good to know, those must be going cheap these days
00:06:11gevaertsAnd yes, you can always easily restore with itunes
00:06:15[Saint]Yes, you can always restore the device with iTunes should you want to.
00:06:17GLC-hmhmh maybe I'll leave the apple stuff there and decide later
00:06:41GLC-thanks both of you
00:06:42[Saint]That is a wise choice.
00:06:44 Quit kugel (Ping timeout: 248 seconds)
00:06:56gevaertsThat generation of ipods is really hard to break in a way that's hard to recover, unless you use the hammerâ„¢ method
00:07:12GLC-so with rockbox i can also use ipod sort of as giant usb stick then?
00:07:30[Saint]It pays to note that if you do use any accessories it would be wise to keep the original firmware and use an Application that is capable of syncing to the iTunes Database.
00:07:39GLC-yeah, it's the iPod video (5G) model
00:08:17GLC-yeah ok but there's no accessories in sight
00:08:47GLC-if i would of known all this Rockbox stuff 7 years ago.. :)
00:09:48wodzpamaury: Updated gerrit. I wonder if the same fix in rb driver will make usb failures fixed...
00:09:51GLC-does Rockbox increase battery life? compared to icrap?
00:10:47pamaurywodz: that's a good question indeed
00:10:55GLC-i mean does rockbox consume less energy than ipodsoft?
00:11:02[Saint]It can. But it can also allow you to set a terrible configuration that would hit the battery heavily.
00:11:30[Saint]It depends on the usage really.
00:11:51gevaertsIt's likely going to be more or less the same
00:11:51GLC-ah ok, thanks, yeah I'm only going to listen music despite all the video etc, so yeah I should keep install minimum
00:12:06GLC-ok
00:12:12gevaertsapple does a fairly good job at battery usage in their firmware usually
00:12:31GLC-hmm, ok
00:12:51[Saint]They are definitely a lot better at video on this device than Rockbox is.
00:13:03gevaertsDon't compare to what you remember from seven years ago though, the battery isn't going to be as good any more :)
00:13:06GLC-but yey! now I can sync with WMP12 how fantastic is this?!!!1 thank you guys
00:13:15 Quit krnlyng (Remote host closed the connection)
00:13:55GLC-true, but it's not half life yet either
00:14:17[Saint]Album art should "Just Work" if you sync with WMP as well, which is a bonus I guess.
00:14:43GLC-yeah, only music and perhaps an occasional ebook if I go away for awhile, like vacation etc
00:15:00GLC-great! yeah album art is a must have
00:15:05[Saint]I do recommend reading through our fine manual: http://download.rockbox.org/daily/manual/rockbox-ipodvideo/rockbox-build.html
00:15:44GLC-thanks, I'll read the links before plugging the pod
00:15:52GLC-thanks for the link
00:16:14pamaurydamn, the freescale nand code is uber-complicated
00:16:34pamauryi'm trying to reverse the FTL but I'm still far from done with the pure nand layer yet
00:17:12GLC-yeah, I have plenty to do before i get to conf my ipod, in a few days, I'll report here how it goes, my first imressions etc (not that I think anynone's interested but i like to think loud)
00:17:41[Saint]Installation is really a very straightforward process.
00:18:05[Saint]ANd it is pretty much impossible to hurt the iPod in an irrecoverable way.
00:18:45GLC-yes I saw some screenshots of the installer, looked easy, I'm not novice on PC
00:18:45wodzpamaury: In case of bulk ep this should be the same, if so how it was ever even half-working. I suspect lots of multi 512b transfers are used.
00:18:49[Saint]Installation literally involves clicking a few buttons and waiting about a minute, depending on your internet connection.
00:19:06GLC-ok
00:19:27GLC-and hey it's goof to know that the pod cannot brake down, yey! :)
00:19:59GLC-*good
00:20:21[Saint]It certainly is possible to do some damage with our tools, but you would need to be trying *really* hard to do so - it would need to be a deliberate effort.
00:20:55pamaurywodz: indeed, luck maybe ^^
00:21:10[Saint]Using things as intended is pretty much bullet proof though.
00:21:11pamauryrockbox doesn't use many blocking transfers
00:22:30GLC-ok, yeah, just click few buttons on the installer, shouldn't be that difficult
00:23:04GLC-oh hey it has a lot of music in it so I guess I'll have to format it before rockboxing?
00:23:30GLC-it's probably in the manual :)
00:25:00[Saint]If you have the music backed up elsewhere, it is probably best to do a restore with iTunes just before you install Rockbox.
00:25:18[Saint]You can format it manually, but iTunes is absolutely guaranteed to get it right.
00:26:22[Saint]The other option is mounting the device in disk mode, enabling "show hidden files", and just deleting everything on the disk.
00:26:37[Saint]Formatting the disk is a bit harsh.

09:39:05copperalso, why doesn't git log display commits ordered by date?

09:43:18DuperManand not really
09:43:31DuperMan(not confusing)
09:49:11wodz[Saint]: Maybe you could make battery_bench on n2g to check if we have regression there as well? According to [7] n2g can measure current draw using internal adc so this would allow to fast(er) pinpoint offending commit

10:04:59copperbut I'm not going to bisect a year's worth of commits
10:05:14GodEaterso you want someone else to?
10:05:33copperit's not that
10:05:48copperI figure you guys are a lot more likely to be able to make educated guesses
10:06:26GodEateryou'd be amazed at the number of regressions which defy educated guesses
10:09:03GodEaterit's not the bisecting that'll take the time though in this case, it's having to run a battery bench with each build
10:09:14copperthat too
10:09:29GodEaterwhich, since you're the one with the issue - you're going to have to do anyway
10:09:38GodEaterso you might as well make a start on the bisecting :)
10:09:40copperwhat?
10:09:44copper"I'm the one"?
10:10:33copperI highly doubt this is a freak occurence that only affects me
10:10:40GodEaterunless I've missed the hordes of other people reporting it?
10:11:28coppera difference between 30 hours and 25 hours might not be obvious when using the iPod normally, for listening to music
10:11:56copperand the difference could easily be attributed to an aging battery
10:12:26copperand, few people ever take the time to report bugs and run battery benchmarks
10:13:05wodzcopper: Do you have battery_bench of old build made currently to exclude battery aging & co ?
10:13:25copperI'm sorry, I don't know what you mean
10:13:54copperI ran both battery benchmarks in the last couple of days
10:14:29copperwith a build from this month, and then a build of a year old commit
10:15:03wodzcopper: that what I mean
10:15:11copperthe build dates in the logs I posted reflect that

11:56:05pamauryDuperMan: you have two ways:
11:56:05pamaury1) compile with an additional define: "make ENABLEDPLUGINS=yes"
11:56:31pamaury2) enable plugins in configure: in tools/configure, find the "creativezen)" section and change plugins="" to plugins="yes"
11:58:19DuperMantried, failed. it built like 2 or 3 plugins. can't go deeply into it but thanks, I'll be back in the evening (I hope)
12:00
12:00:05pamauryI suggest 2) so you don't have to remember the magic define all the time
12:00:07pamauryyou will get many compile errors, that's normal
12:00:08pamauryyou need to go through each plugin which fails and add a keymap
12:02:06DuperManahhh... guess I'd love to do so if I'll have the time tomorrow. might need some handholding but hey - I'm doing the menial labor here ;) DuperMan out/bbl

20:08:21pamauryI'm not sure
20:08:49pamauryThe NWZ have very poor battery life, so I wanted to make sure if it was related to some power regression or it was nwz specific
20:09:02copperisn't it a bit much of a coincidence that both the Fuze+ and the Classic have regressed?
20:09:19coppersomeone should run a benchmark of another target
20:09:22copperhmmm
20:09:48copperI could run a battery benchmark for the Clip+, but I don't have a previous reference
20:09:48pamauryI don't know, on the fuze+ that's not that surprising given the number of changes in the past month
20:10:01pamauryI was excepting some regressions when adding support for the stmp3700 and stmp3600

20:11:08copperpamaury: assuming the regression spans different targets, what (older) commit do you think I should try for reference?

20:11:31pamauryNot out of the blue, no
20:11:44copperMeh. ;)
20:12:29NarodDo they, though? Would love to battery bench my two NWZs. :)
20:13:34pamaurybattery life on the nwz is very low at the moment: ~10hours
20:13:35copperto put it in other words: did anyone here commit something pertaining to CPU usage?
20:13:52copperor boosting or powersaving or whatever
20:14:20NarodWow, okay. I never really used it for that long in one go.
20:14:24copperanything that could remotely have an effect on battery usage
20:14:36pamauryI don't know, I try to follow on the commits but I don't remember anything special
20:14:43pamauryand it might be something less obvious
20:15:20copperok, this is what I'm going to do: I'm going to run battery benchmarks on the Clip+, with a year old revision, and the latest revision
20:15:35copperif I see a significant difference, then it's probably something target-agnostic
20:16:10copperI don't mind running battery benchmarks on the Clip+, because I never use it
20:17:09pamaurythe only thing which could be remotely be related is some change in the eq I think, but I think it's not enabled by default so it should not changed anything
20:18:52copperwell, if I don't see a significant difference with the Clip+, then at least I can rule out a target-agnostic commit
20:19:08copperI'll test the same revision as the iPod Classic
20:19:30pamauryon imx233 I see plenty of reasons why battery life could be worse than it used to be ^^
20:19:39copperit should help narrow it down, I think
20:20:01copperbecause the regression is definitely real
20:20:47copperI'm hoping the Clip+ benchmark will show the difference, because in that case, I can run as many benchmarks as I need, on the Clip+
20:21:21pamaurywhen my bench is done I will start two more benches on my two fuze+ for other revisisons
20:21:32pamaurycurrently the two revisions I chose were imx233 related
20:22:34copperI will use FLAC as the codec, in order to match my iPod Classic benchmarking conditions
20:22:47copperand because FLAC decoding is very fast
20:23:20copperI already expect a stupid bug to be the culprit

22:42:50pamaurywodz: I hope I don't say something stupid here but ZLP doesn't apply the same to bulk
22:43:06pamauryfor bulk transfers you send a ZLP only to prematuraly terminate a transfer
22:43:30pamauryif you are requested for 512 bytes, you must send 512 and no ZLP because that's the exact amount requested
22:43:36wodzpamaury: Hmm, it seems to work. I copied ~140MB file and spammed ep0 during copy with lsusb -vv in loop. The transfer survived and files are the same according to md5sum
22:44:02wodzI spammed ep0 during md5summing also
22:46:09pamaurywhat I don't understand is why it was failing
22:47:16pamaurybecause this zlp fix only apply to control transfers and most if not all transfers you send when spamming are not multiple of 64 in length, so no ZLP applies
22:47:22pamauryanyway, if it works, that's great :)

23:26:11pamaurywodz: this is getting interesting
23:28:06pamauryI wonder if it could be somehow related to back-to-back setup packets
