#rockbox log for 2014-07-06

00:11:29saratogafranklin: the bench_scalar plugin uses resize_on_load to perform image scaling
00:12:42saratogait imports that from "lib/jpeg_mem.h" which includes "resize.h"
00:13:00saratogai've never done plugin development, but these functions are used by the core for scaling things like album art

04:00:26franklinsaratoga: how can I scale a bitmap on demand?
04:01:04saratogano idea
04:01:42franklinAnyone?
04:05:29franklinSaint mentioned it here http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php/topic,48355.0.html
04:06:25[Saint]I mentioned it based on the fact that I know we have bitmap scaling functions in the core - and it should in theory be possible to use this. How, however, is another game entirely.
04:07:20franklinWell...
04:07:25[Saint]I'm on mobile presently, I'm fairly certain there's at least one example of a plugin scaling on demand in the source.
04:07:41franklinSame here
04:09:26saratogafranklin: have you looked at the test_resize plugin?
04:09:37saratogait seems to do what you want using smooth_resize_bitmap
04:09:58[Saint]Ah, yes. The testplugin. Thankyou.
04:10:23franklinNo, actually...
04:10:26saratogaby the way, if you haven't already, you should take a look at using grep
04:10:34saratogait makes finding things like this relatively easy
04:10:45franklinI am on mobile right now.

11:27:23ulmutulfranklin: Actually most plugins don't scale their bitmaps. Look at the Sudoku plugin (I think this come closest to your 2048 game): The number tiles are separate bitmaps for different screen sizes (in apps/plugins/bitmaps/native/sudoku_xyz.bmp)
11:28:23[Saint]...which is incredibly wasteful.
11:28:36[Saint]If you *can* scale bitmaps, why not?
11:30:03 Join kuldeepdhaka_ [0] (~kuldeepdh@unaffiliated/kuldeepdhaka)
11:30:45ulmutulI think depending on the bitmap it may look ugly (for example scaled number tiles)
11:31:28[Saint]The scaling in Rockbox is actually pretty decent.
11:31:33[Saint]see: album art
11:31:37gevaerts[Saint]: why is that wasteful?
11:31:37ulmutulfranklin: the right bitmap size for compiling is choosen inside apps/plugins/bitmaps/native/SOURCES
11:32:51[Saint]gevaerts: if you can scale cleanly enough from a much smaller bitmap - why not?
11:33:23gevaerts[Saint]: that sounds unlikely to me
11:34:08[Saint]Once you get up to the larger screen sizes, it would start to be more effective in saving space.
11:34:24gevaertsUpscaling text nicely isn't trivial at all
11:35:00[Saint]We manage to do it with very reasonable results for album art.
11:35:40gevaertsDo we?
11:36:05[Saint]Well, my art doesn't turn into unreadable shitblobs, so, I'm going with yes.
11:36:37gevaertsunreadable != nice
11:36:56gevaerts*not unreadable
11:37:21[Saint]Well...I mean, if we're willing to let a plugin bring in potentially several MB of bitmaps...then, OK, I guess.
11:37:37gevaertsSeveral MB?
11:37:51*gevaerts wants to see the numbers
11:38:35gevaertsThe largest resolution where we care about game plugins is 640x480 IIRC
11:39:16gevaertsSo the tile size would be 120x120 max
11:39:35[Saint]Ok, so, whatever 17 X 120X120 bitmap costs out oat.
11:39:40[Saint]*at
11:39:54[Saint]That's...non-trivial.
11:40:05[Saint]Not heaps, granted, but non-trivial.
11:40:44gevaertsThat's around half a megabyte
11:41:01gevaertsFor *one* rare target
11:41:03[Saint]Scaling also allows the plugin to make effective use of the entire screen width - potentially.
11:41:29gevaertsThe others are max. four times less
11:41:33gevaertsHow?
11:42:16gevaertsAlso, 17?
11:42:29[Saint]scale tiles to screen width/4. As opposed to getting a best-fitr bitmap that kinda fits, and having to center it all.
11:42:37gevaertsDo the numbers go that high?
11:42:44gevaertsNo
11:42:46[Saint]17 is the highest iteration.
11:43:06gevaertsYou have the correct bitmaps for the screen size
11:43:55[Saint]Hmm, good point. I guess it doesn't matter how many bitmaps get shat into the source.
11:44:02*gevaerts doesn't actually believe it's possible to get that high a tile
11:44:18[Saint]Its theoretically possible.
11:44:20gevaerts17 is 128k...
11:44:24[Saint]Tremendously unlikely.
11:44:27[Saint]But possible.
11:45:43*gevaerts thinks about this
11:46:36 Join us`0gb [0] (~0gb.us@c-71-237-219-28.hsd1.or.comcast.net)
11:47:14[Saint]I'm not sure if the current plugin supports undoes, so, yeah - getting that high would be a remarkable fluke.
11:47:50gevaertsIf it supports undoes, that's a bug!
11:48:46[Saint]Another problem, scaling or no, is that there's a few targets that won't be elegible for this plugin based solely on the numbers alone.
11:49:01[Saint]Even if the number was wrapped over several lines.
11:49:15gevaertsWell
11:49:37[Saint]it wouldn't fit in the tile and be legible.
11:50:00*gevaerts doubts that
11:50:29[Saint]its potentially 4, 5+ character digits, side-by-side.
11:50:44gevaerts Not really :)
11:50:44[Saint]lowest res width is..what? 64? so - that's out for sure.
11:51:28gevaertsYou can write 128K, or just 128 in a different colour or reverse
11:51:29[Saint]Binary! :)
11:51:37[Saint]Ohhh, yeah, good point.
11:52:12gevaertsNot if you want scaled bitmaps of course :)
11:54:03*gevaerts thinks that if one uses patterns instead of numbers, it should be doable for the Player even
11:54:30gevaertsStill, almost certainly not worth the effort
11:54:43[Saint]beep the board out in morse.
11:54:47[Saint]No screen required.

16:30:34[Saint]If you have a real sdcard, Rockbox is likely doing the typical Android thing and using emulated storage instead.

16:51:47preglowhahaha
16:51:57preglowwell, i won't be using an android phone that day
16:52:22coppersd cards are already read-only in Android
16:52:48copper"see, sd cards don't work very well, you better use the cloud"
16:54:15copperwell, they're not really "read only", but there are some user rights shenanigans
16:55:19preglowreally now
16:56:23copperI can transfer files over WiFi with SwiFTP; my phone's bundled File Commander can write to it too, but not ES File Explorer or Poweramp

22:00:54franklinWhat units does the Samsung piezo driver use? The prototype's here: void piezo_start(unsigned short cycles, unsigned short periods);
22:02:45franklinIn firmware/target/arm/s518702/ipod6g/piezo-ipod6g.c.
22:13:21 Join us`0gb [0] (~0gb.us@63-155-157-50.eugn.qwest.net)
22:21:32saratogafrom the comments, the piezo is a PWM circuit with a 100KHz clock
22:23:20saratogaso one cycle is probably about 50 khz if theres no other scaling
22:23:35TheSevenany idea what "Mikey" might stand for? ("MikeyTask")
22:23:59TheSevenI've seen that turn up in multiple spots in apple firmwares, but never figured out what it means
22:25:18saratogaTheSeven: you remember how the 6g piezo works?
22:26:21ulmutulfranklin: http://www.rockbox.org/irc/log-20140706#11:27:23
22:26:44TheSevenfull list of tasks that I've found: http://paste.pm/i3c.m (and MikeyTask is the one that data aborts)
22:26:57TheSevensaratoga: do we have a driver for that?
22:27:24TheSevenI think on the nano2g it's just hooked up to a timer PWM gpio, and I don't remember the classic being different
22:28:06saratogayeah its basically the same on both
22:28:27saratogafrom the code it looks like a 100khz pwm, so one cycle = 50KHz square wave?
22:28:27 Join kugel [0] (~kugel@rockbox/developer/kugel)
22:29:38TheSevenmuch slower I think
22:29:49TheSevenmore like 1-5kHz square wave
22:30:38saratogaa beep is 40 cycles, so it has to be pretty fast
22:30:49saratogaif it was 1 khz, dividing down by 40 would be quite slow
22:31:27TheSeven40ms? seems reasonable
22:31:44saratogawell a period of 40 ms
22:31:55saratogaso that'd be 25hz
22:32:52TheSevenI was thinking more along the lines of 40 periods of 2.5kHz square wave or something like that
22:33:35TheSevenif you want to have a look at how apple does it, I know where it is in the disassembly
22:34:08saratogaits working in rockbox, so thats probably not needed
22:34:45saratogaIIUC, the driver just sets a timer that expires after X/2 cycles and inverts the driver level
22:35:38saratogaif the clock was 100khz, then the "40" used by the beep would give 100/2/40 = 1.25kHz
22:36:22saratogaeasy enough to test if someone has a 6g running rockbox handy
22:42:54saratogaBagder is apparently traveling around the US at the moment, is there anyone else who can poke the HTML manual builds and figure out why they stopped?
