#rockbox log for 2013-11-26

00:01:53	pamaury	indeed
00:02:38	fs-bluebot	Build Server message: Build round completed after 483 seconds.
00:02:54	pamaury	ah, you put empty <reg></reg> registers
00:03:29	pamaury	the parser is pretty stupid and if you don't put any <addr> field in it, it will not be treated as a register with no instanciation
00:04:06	pamaury	actually this:
00:04:06	pamaury	<reg name="GPIO_PADR" addr="0x00">
00:04:06	pamaury	is invalid: the addr="0x00" part will be ignored
00:04:22	wodz	why?
00:04:48	pamaury	because it's not in the spec
00:05:38	wodz	but why? missing </reg> or something else?
00:05:44	pamaury	there is a different between a register and instanciation of that register: <reg> basically defines a register "kind" and <addr> defines an instance of this kind at a particular address
00:06:08	pamaury	so the correct way is:
00:06:08	pamaury	<reg name="GPIO_PADR"><addr name="GPIO_PADR" addr="0x00" /></reg>
00:06:17	wodz	I see
00:06:44	pamaury	and qeditor only display instanciation of the registers
00:06:53	pamaury	so if there no <addr>, it doesn't show anything
00:07:10	pamaury	yeah the format was not really conceived for a human to write ^^
00:07:18	wodz	blah, a lot of typing then
00:07:48	pamaury	maybe we could add support for such "shortcut" we are commonplace
00:07:57	pamaury	*when they are
00:08:13		Quit Zagor (Quit: Clint excited)
00:08:18	pamaury	that should be easy
00:09:35	wodz	That would save me a lot of typing
00:10:11	pamaury	ok, I'll give it a try, wait for 5 min

00:33:50	[Saint]	JdGordon: http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php/topic,43661.msg221576.html#msg221576 ...really?
00:34:03	[Saint]	Core functionality fails, and your answer is to edit the .wps?
00:35:13	[Saint]	JdGordon: perhaps you parsed OP's statement incorrectly? To be clear, OP is saying that "clear backdrop" fails, which has been reported by a few people, the answer to this is not to edit the .wps :)

00:40:28	JdGordon	[Saint]: clear backdrop is for the colour
00:40:38	JdGordon	its got nothing to do with the backdrop image in the wps
00:41:18	[Saint]	...errrr...no?
00:41:46	[Saint]	It clears the backdrop.
00:41:48		Nick Cultist_ is now known as Cultist (~CultOfThe@c-24-12-53-28.hsd1.il.comcast.net)
00:42:07	JdGordon	no it doesnt?
00:42:16	[Saint]	As far as I am aware it has always behaved in this fashion.
00:42:28	[Saint]	I just tested it, and it certainly does clear the backdrop.
00:42:58	gevaerts	It won't clear a wps-specified backdrop
00:43:06	[Saint]	It just did.
00:43:40	[Saint]	I just loaded up cabbiev2, selected clear backdrop from the theme settings - bam, no backdrop.
00:43:59	[Saint]	As far as I was aware this was intended functionality.
00:44:06	JdGordon	in the menus or wps?
00:44:21	[Saint]	both.
00:44:28	gevaerts	Also, I seem to remember that the cabbie backdrop is not wps-specified
00:45:14	[Saint]	It is.
00:45:26	JdGordon	ah, no, i was mistaken
00:45:35	JdGordon	it clears the backdrop image specified in the .cfg
00:48:13	[Saint]	FWIW, this has been reported before - but I have never been able to reproduce it reliably.
00:48:29	[Saint]	I don't think it has been reported in an official capacity, I'll have a look.
00:49:24	[Saint]	Oh - can someone do me a favor and close out http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/12903?project=1&type=2&order=dateopened&sort=desc as "not a bug"? Thanks.
00:50:45	[Saint]	AH, that reminds me, there is also another issue with backdrops that I believe has been reported officially.
00:51:06	[Saint]	Sometimes when applying a theme the backdrop won't take until the device is rebooted.
00:51:18	*	[Saint] looks
00:51:50	[Saint]	Ah, yes, copper reported this a while ago:
00:51:51	[Saint]	http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/12892
00:52:21	JdGordon	hmmm
00:52:35	JdGordon	the backgrounds do some fancy complex stuff so yeah, there might be a bug :p
00:53:28	[Saint]	I had a look the other day but I got distracted.
00:54:15		Quit Tukeke (Quit: Tukeke)
00:54:21	[Saint]	I was checking to see why buflib thinks there's a bitmap background loaded when the background is only being drawn by the background viewport color.
00:54:54	[Saint]	I'm fairly sure that is a bug as well, but I get lost in the theme engine so easily.
00:55:36		Quit lonoxmont (Ping timeout: 272 seconds)
00:56:27	[Saint]	Even using the fallback theme, which most certainly doesn't have a bitmap backdrop, you can see the allocation in the buflib allocation debug screen.

01:40:39	[Saint]	And a 320x240 bitmap isn't /huge/ I know, but every little bit counts.
01:40:51	[Saint]	WHat's up with your Video?
01:41:17	[Saint]	WHat do you need to get it working again? I may have asked this before but I can't remember - I may have some spares for you.

03:12:00	foolsh	chrisjj_: Most rockbox plugins need very specific changes added to them in order to support new targets, they will not compile without errors until those specific changes are added
03:22:06	chrisjj_	foolsh: Sure, but is that really true for mere file view plug-ins? Can't they just write to a generic virtual screen buffer?
03:29:30	foolsh	And how would the user interact with that plugin? What about hardware limitations that are present on some targets and not others. It's those kinds changes that are specific to the individual targets. Rockbox is very hardware specific with it's code, generic workings are extremely hard to implement without a lot of overhead code to support them.

09:56:23	wodz	chrisjj_: You are missing the point probably. What is missing to make plugins work on new target is keymap. Each target has different number of keys, different physical location of keys and different combos allowed. You need to go through and define keymaps. Thats lots of work (and rather boring one)

11:31:51	lebellium	what is TRAN mod?
11:32:38	pamaury	TRAN mode, that's one of the many possible states of the SD card. You must be in TRAN mode to be able to transfer any data
11:34:08	wodz	pamaury: is it for internal eMMC?
11:34:39	pamaury	both eMMC and SD. But the effect seems much more important on SD
11:34:46	pamaury	unfortunately, the specification is quite vague about power management. In eMMC card you can explicitely put the card in to sleep (which we don't yet) but in SD cards you can't. Many will just automatically enter sleep but some don't apparently.
11:35:56	wodz	Does nwe360 have sd slot? I recall sonys hesitant to put card slot in their players
11:36:13	lebellium	no
11:36:27	pamaury	wodz: internal SD
11:36:50	lebellium	No Sony mp3 player has a SD slot. Only a few very old models have a MS slot

15:17:35	pamaury	lebellium: ever heard of the YP-CP3 ?
15:18:07	lebellium	pamaury: I reviewed it and own it of course :
15:18:09	lebellium	:)
15:18:39	pamaury	of course :) how is it ?
15:18:51	lebellium	here is my review
15:18:55	lebellium	http://labo.generationmp3.com/2009/10/30/test-et-video-du-samsung-cp3/
15:19:02	lebellium	it's one of the worst mp3 players I have reviewed
15:19:32	pamaury	ah thanks, very thorough review as usual
15:19:58	pamaury	why is it that bad ? is it the shape or the software ?
15:20:34		Quit kevku (Ping timeout: 245 seconds)
15:21:09	lebellium	the software mainly. But maybe the hardware too since the Samsung R&D told me they could not get the video format ratio respected (can only play any video full screen) because the CPU is not powerful enough
15:21:18	lebellium	I don't know if that's true or if they were too lazy
15:21:36	pamaury	do you know the cpu ? I don't think you have the service manual for this one
15:22:24	lebellium	It's the only Samsung player with a Rockchip CPU :) RK2706B
15:23:20	pamaury	oh, really ?! I'm going to contact the vendor right away then, I found a cheap one on leboncoin
15:23:31	lebellium	Samsung decided that a player designed for the Chinese and Russian market doesn't deserve a good hardware and software. You know, developing countries only need bad products :)
15:23:56	pamaury	When I saw the interface I thought it looked familiar, now I know why ^^

15:26:35	copper	for a reviewer, that's basically a crime
15:30:44	lebellium	pamaury: funny fact: Since the R&D was not able/did not want to fix the screen ratio for videos, they released firmware 2.10 to fix only one minor thing I reported. A typo in some languages "insert mircoSD" instead of "insert microSD". It's the most useless firmware release I have experienced...
15:31:35	lebellium	That's a bit off-topic but I have many funny anecdotes about stupid sammy :)

15:45:01	lebellium	I don't know how much different from a generic RK27 it is

15:49:54	pamaury	yeah exactly
15:50:15	pamaury	my guess it's that they hardly modified the generic design
15:50:26	pamaury	but first I need to be able to buy this mp3 ^^
15:51:50	lebellium	but the battery seems to be good quality
15:52:06	lebellium	I haven't turned it on for months

22:16:40	gevaerts	I went for a non-empty one because we have three just lying around anyway :)
22:16:56	pamaury	sure :)
22:16:58	gevaerts	That saves a byte or four I think
22:17:28	gevaerts	I'm actually thinking that we should just push that and tell people to test current builds
22:18:00	bertrik	what's the problem with STALL, we can't stall on some platforms, or stall works too good?
22:19:06	gevaerts	We don't recover from stall properly on at least ams
22:19:25	gevaerts	It's not at all clear why
22:19:37	gevaerts	And windows causes a stall on first connect by default these days
22:19:45	bertrik	hm
22:20:37	bertrik	I'd rather have the stall fixed than avoiding it and hope it never happens in any other scenario, but I realise the truth is probably that noone will fix ams usb thoroughly
22:21:29	gevaerts	Well, it shouldn't ever happen in normal operation.
22:21:37	gevaerts	This 0xee thing really is a weird exception

22:22:49	pamaury	probably with a workaround but we need to find it
22:23:09	pamaury	I'm still disassembling amsv2 ROM but it's really difficult
22:23:20	bertrik	I don't clearly remember how a stall get cleared
22:23:31	bertrik	host sends a "clear stall", right?
22:23:41	gevaerts	Well, there definitely is a workaround, the OF doesn't have the problem
22:23:41	bertrik	on the control endpoint
22:23:51	gevaerts	bertrik: this is on EP0, so it gets auto-cleared
22:24:42	bertrik	should, but doesn't? something like that?
22:24:50	gevaerts	Yes
22:25:02	gevaerts	The hardware is documented as doing this automatically
22:25:20	gevaerts	But while it seems to actually clear the STALL, nothing else then still works
22:25:24	bertrik	pamaury: have you looked at it with the USB analyzer?

22:26:18	bertrik	I seem to remember that USB mass storage relies quite heavily on stall too
22:26:30	bertrik	but that's on the bulk endpoints

23:26:47	wodz	As far as I can tell video is decoded on DSP core which is rather powerful. The lcdif has hw scaling block so I would say samsung R&D did poor job OR rockchip didn't support them with proper documentation.
23:27:07	wodz	decoders are in binary form in SDK
23:27:30	wodz	and no free toolchain nor documentation is available for ZSP500 core
23:29:09	pamaury	yeah I pretty much stalled on the zsp, it would be nice to work on it but so many things to do

23:32:04	pamaury	this is not the driver for amsv2
23:33:01	wodz	Anyone knows MIPS? I can't wrap my head around exception dispatcher. Every implementation I saw saves whole set of GPRs but according to my understanding s0-s8 registers are saved anyway in function prologue if it wants to use it. This would save 9 registers push/pop on every exception (irq)
