04:45:06orzohello
04:46:06orzois it correct behavior that rockbox bookmarks made on an sdcard inserted into a e280 will not work when that sdcard is inserted into an android phone and rockbox is run as an android app?
04:47:04orzoI believe the issue is that full paths are specified in the bmark file, and we see the e280 writing something like /<microSD1>/ where the rockbox android app writes and expects /mnt/sdcard/
04:47:37 Quit varogami (Ping timeout: 265 seconds)
04:48:01orzoit's come up because i am writing an android app myself that reads/writes rockbox compatible bookmarks and i cannot see a way to be compatible with both...
04:48:52orzocurrently my app can accept either sort of path, but it writes the /<microSD1>/ path in order to be compatible with e280
04:49:27orzoi didn't realize until now that rockbox runs on android and so i installed it and see that it uses a different path on there which seems bad

06:34:56[Saint]orzo: it should, by my understanding, try trimming the path down until it either finds a hit or gives up.
06:35:05[Saint]so - basically, yes, this may be expected.
06:36:47orzoexpected that it doesn't work?
06:37:27orzoi think android rockbox should use <microSD1> or accept it if e280 rockbox writes that
06:40:00orzoi think its a primary reason somebody might want to install rockbox on their android
06:40:08[Saint]That would require a lot of largely unnecessary magic.
06:40:13orzoin my case, my e280 is broken
06:40:30orzonow i have to transform all the bookmarks if i want to use them on android
06:40:53[Saint]I mean, in my many years here, exactly one person has complained of this.
06:40:54[Saint]You.
06:41:03[Saint]So, it can't be in that much demand.
06:41:23orzoif i coded the magic would you object to it?
06:41:45[Saint]But, one can chalk this up to one of the many reasons why Rockbox on Android is not (nor will it be) marketed to the publec in its current state.
06:41:51orzoi think that i was the one who originally requested bookmarks to begin with
06:42:04orzothe feature didn't exist before i mentioned wanting it here
06:42:07[Saint]*public, uugh, typos.
06:42:39[Saint]And, you can certainly try...but I wouldn't like to gamble on it getting committed.
06:42:55[Saint]Walking over the playlists code for such a nice case might not be looked at favorably.
06:42:56[Saint]Dunno.
06:43:00 Quit froggyman (Ping timeout: 244 seconds)
06:43:08[Saint]*niche, dammit.
06:43:10[Saint]cold hands.
06:44:13orzohow's the project organized? is there a dictator?
06:44:16[Saint]By my understanding if the end of the paths on either device match, it should "Just Work".
06:44:20[Saint]No.
06:44:43orzowell your understanding is wrong
06:44:53orzoi mean, it might be right in "should"
06:44:56orzobut its wrong in actually does
06:45:11[Saint]It does on non-app targets, or...did.
06:45:38[Saint]I can't say with certainty it still does.
06:45:58orzowhen i had the wrong path in my bookmarks, it would list the bookmarks, but when i select one, it fails to go the right place and then forgets that any of the bookmarks exist
06:46:14[Saint]Oh dear.
06:46:33orzowhen i edited the bmark files to have the right path, they work fine
06:46:52[Saint]I thought bookmarks and playlists were handled rather similarly in this regard, I suppose not.
06:48:09 Quit ikeboy (Quit: Leaving)
06:48:39orzoi'm not sure what you mean about the playlist case. Do you mean a path to a music file that it reads from an m3u8 file will work with either <microSD1> or /mnt/sdcard at the begginning of it?
06:49:46[Saint]To my understanding, yes. It should try stripping sections of the path until it finds a hit.
06:50:05[Saint]or, doesn't.
06:50:26orzoso if i put a filename without any path in front, that file can be anywhere in my entire filesystem and it will just find the first match and use it?
06:50:34[Saint]I had thought that bookmarks worked similarly, but this calls that into question pretty drastically.

06:50:52 Quit JdGordon_ (Ping timeout: 265 seconds)
06:53:29[Saint]It pained me to do so, but I kinda turned my back on the Android port. A lot of people wasted a lot of time on it. And, its very, very sad.
06:53:44orzooh?
06:53:46[Saint]Countless hours lost barking up the wrong tree, as it were.
06:53:53orzowhy?
06:54:01orzoi'm running it on android emu and it seems pretty slick
06:54:09orzoi didn't expet the touch screen to work so well
06:54:12[Saint]The only way Rockbox makes sense on Android is as a central Rockbox playback library with a native UI.
06:54:24[Saint]At present, bringing our own UI to the party only hurts us.
06:55:06orzoa rockbox playback library would be useful for my app
06:55:13[Saint]one exists.
06:55:30orzoi wrote my app to replace my rockbox mp3 player for audio books, android audio book players were disatisfying to me
06:55:31[Saint]you might want to look at the warble library.
06:55:54orzobut certain features don't exist in android's MediaPlayer component/service. Such as playback speed and pitch control
06:56:03orzothose features are significant for audio books in my opinion
06:56:47orzois warble related to rockbox?
06:56:53[Saint]Warble is in infancy still, just a proof of concept for a GSoC task, but it might provide a fine base to grow from for someone who wanted it.
06:57:00[Saint]Yes, inded it is.
06:57:33[Saint]I believe there's only very basic playback and seeking implemented thus far.
06:57:39[Saint]and no one has poked it in years.
06:57:53orzohm
06:58:09orzowell i was thinking i could get gthe features i wanted by using mplayer
06:59:28orzodoes warble have a home page?
06:59:53orzofound http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/StandaloneAudioLibrary
07:00
07:00:00[Saint]that's the one.
07:00:17 Quit Strife89 (Ping timeout: 245 seconds)
07:00:23[Saint]Its not well documented, but it still compiles.
07:01:59orzodoes it use rockbox's latest audio code or is sort of branched off on its own and rotting?
07:02:01[Saint]I feel like kicking myself for my Rockbox/Android ventures.
07:02:09[Saint]I backed the wrong horse.
07:02:18orzowhy
07:02:23orzoi mean
07:02:27orzoit looks good to me
07:02:39[Saint]I really thought we could do it, and do it well, with our own theme engine as the primary UI.
07:02:54[Saint]But that makes things so awkward its not even funny.
07:03:06[Saint]the main problem, resolution specific binaries.
07:03:19orzoyes i read that on the wiki
07:03:30orzobut the wiki mentions there's a dynamic branch
07:03:39orzodynamic resolution branch of rockbox
07:03:46orzoseems like a simple solution to me
07:04:03orzowhy not just distribute a build based on that?
07:04:41[Saint]That came with its own mishaps, I'm not overly sure whay it was abandoned but I think the general consensus was that it wasn't "The Right Way" to do it.
07:05:08[Saint]"The Right Way" being a centralized library and a native UI.
07:06:08[Saint]Its fine for people who are prepared to compile for their own devices, though. And almost perfectly usable.
07:09:00orzowell is the native ui + centralized library ever going to happen? because if the "right way" isn't likely to happen any time soon, then maybe the wrong way isn't such a bad idea
07:09:07orzoheh
07:09:25[Saint]Will it ever happen isn;t something I can answer. I can however say:
07:09:34[Saint]"No one is working towards this /now/."
07:09:57orzodo you use rockbox on your android?
07:10:35[Saint]Not for a while.
07:11:09[Saint]I worked towards creating a largely resolution agnostic theme for a while, and I'm most of the way there, but real life got in the way.
07:11:23[Saint]That's the story for a lot of us.
07:11:26[Saint]Real life happened.
07:11:39[Saint]Getting old, family, work stuffs, higher learning, etc.
07:11:40orzoyou make it sound like rockbox has stalled
07:11:44[Saint]It has.
07:11:48orzooh crap
07:11:48[Saint]Its no secret.
07:12:16[Saint]There's still a few active submitters, but thoughput is nowhere near what it was, say, 2 years ago.
07:13:04orzowell i'm a fan of the project going back years
07:13:11orzoi loved my rockbox mp3 player
07:13:29[Saint]The last GSoC attempt was a bit of a failure, and I don't think anyone has bothered for recent GSoC's.
07:13:37[Saint]Its hard to attract new life to the project.
07:13:46[Saint]But I'd love it to happen. Just not sure how.
07:14:08orzowell i was going to advertise compatibilty with my app
07:15:46orzowas the touchscreen ui support added for the android port or was that already in the works? rockbox doesn't really support any touchscreen mp3 players that i know of...
07:15:59[Saint]It was already there.
07:16:04[Saint]For the Cown D2.
07:16:10[Saint]*Cowon
07:16:24[Saint](a very obscure device I'm not surprised you're not familiar with)
07:18:33orzodo you think android/smartphones has hurt rockbox's vitality? people use those devices for their mp3 playing needs now?
07:18:43[Saint]Definitely.
07:19:24orzowell clearly your android efforts should not be wasted
07:19:37[Saint]They've /almost/ completely killed the DAP market. Now there's only the cheap semi-disposable types (think gym bunnies), and the high end audiophile types.
07:20:09orzoi notice that my e280 hasn't depreciated at all if it worked
07:20:19orzoit sells for more than what i paid in fact
07:20:21orzoheh
07:21:07[Saint]Well, I shouldn;t say "only", there's definitely still midrange consumer DAPs still on the market, but they're getting rare.
07:21:35[Saint]Joe Average doesn't want to carry multiple devices and is fine with shitty audio and lack of features.
07:22:25foolshe200s are hefty feeling, the scroll wheel is a bit plasticy feeling, but it's a solid build I have three :)
07:22:33orzoi was early to the linux-based smartphone craze, i had an openmoko before android was released
07:22:50[Saint]Oh wow. That old chesnut.
07:22:52[Saint]Heh.
07:23:04[Saint]I guess you had an N900 too?
07:23:08*[Saint] still does
07:23:14orzothat system sucked, and i though tthey should use rockbox as a base instead and add phone features
07:23:22[Saint]hahahaha
07:23:27orzoi sold my openmoko
07:24:44orzowell it probably was a good idea
07:24:59orzorockbox would be an alternate firmware for android phones then
07:26:36orzowe'd dual boot maybe
07:29:55orzoby the way, the touch-senstive seek bar is a disaster for audio books
07:30:08orzorockbox without a touch screen doesn't ahve that issue
07:30:21orzobut i notice the android port makes the same annoying mistake as all the damn android apps
07:31:20orzonot sure why it happened
07:31:36orzogues the Cowen guys dropped that ball
07:46:56 Quit AlexP (Remote host closed the connection)
08:00
08:01:14orzoi think that the "right way" development doesnt make sense at this time considering how finished the android port is. I think the project should finish up your resolution-independent theme and release for android asap
08:01:23orzoit makes no sense to throw away all the work you've done
08:02:29orzoit'd probably help attract new developers

11:17:48wodzAnyone knows the details of our sd driver? What I found peculiar is that cmd(SD_SEND_IF_COND,0x1aa, &response, R3) expects 0x1aa in response for sd_v2 cards. In fact low 8bits of response is crc + end bit. That means that driver is supposed to strip crc field. BUT in parse_csd() the fields are extracted as if crc was there. I don't get this
11:22:23wodzIs it because we reverse the word order for R2 response?
11:22:31wodzamiconn: ?
11:23:12*amiconn doesn't know the SD driver
11:23:23amiconnOnly MMC, and that driver is Ondio specific
11:23:38amiconn...and uses SPI mode
11:25:34wodzamiconn: but wrote card_extract_bits() which confuses me
11:25:57wodzamiconn: it seems like it expects words in reversed order
11:26:24wodzI mean it expects bit[31:0] in response[3]

13:05:03pamaurywodz: just passing by, the sd code expects words to be swapped (at least on imx I swap the response words)
13:05:49pamauryand also the CRC is always stripped by the hardware (otherwise it wouldn't fit). The SEND_IF_COND contains a pattern (0xaa) which the device must send back that's why the answer is 0x1aa iird
13:05:52pamaury*iirc
13:05:56wodzpamaury: on atj it is even worst I think as RESP0 contains CRC7 + end bit
13:06:21pamaurythat's seems very unlikely, where would you fit this in 32-bit ?!
13:06:22wodzthere are RESP0-RESP4 on atj
13:06:30pamauryah ok
13:06:36pamauryweird
13:06:47pamaurybut the hardware does crc checking for you ?
13:06:48wodzRESP4 is only 8bits - exactly this
13:07:16wodzyes and no. It calculates crc but I need to manually compare RESP0 & 0xff with calculated value
13:07:20pamaury(also some requests must not be CRC checked)

18:26:05wodzpamaury: what is CMD23 at the very end of imx233 sd card init?
18:26:39pamauryCMD23 is SET_BLOCK_COUNT
18:26:40 Quit kugel (Ping timeout: 272 seconds)
18:26:50wodzwhat it is good for?
18:27:37pamauryit avoids doing open-ended transfers for read/write. On device which support it, it is usually faster to specify the block count in advance
18:27:58wodzinteresting
18:28:13pamauryI added it because it's essentially free: MMC uses CMD23 anyway, it's mandatory, so on SD it's only a matter of probing support
18:28:44wodzand support it in read/write routine, right?
18:29:05pamauryyes but because I need to support it for mmc anyway...
18:30:02pamauryessentially the difference is that instead of doing SD_READ, xfer * N, STOP_TRANSMISSION you do SET_BLOCK_COUNT(N), SD_READ, xfer * N
18:30:20pamaury(except on error)
18:30:28wodzpamaury: Could you remind me what why we do data transfer after SD_SWITCH_FUNC ?
18:31:34pamaurySD_SWITCH_FUNC returns 64-byte of data which contain information about High-Speed support iirc
18:32:21pamauryhowever on imx233 I ran into the issue that some cards advertising High-Speed mode don't work well at this speed. Maybe the problem comes from incorrect pull-ups / drive strength, I don't know
18:32:27pamauryso it's disabled
18:33:34wodznot getting this 64bytes from card is a bug, right?
18:34:57pamauryabsolutely
18:35:05pamauryon some cards it will confuse the device
18:35:34pamauryat least I ran into some cards which were quite unhappy when one did not retrieve the data
18:35:43wodzSo rk27xx driver is buggy then. I could swear I fixed this once. Maybe in some local branch :-(

18:37:44pamaurycool :)

18:38:23wodzI didn't try switching card to 4bit mode but OF does this so I don't expect problems
18:39:31wodzpamaury: Do you know if there is some const field (like all 0s or 1s) in CSD so I can be sure I did byte shifting right?
18:40:01 Quit RiDD (Quit: A good plan today is better than a perfect plan tomorrow.)
18:41:34pamaurythere is the CSD_STRUCTURE slice at 127:126 which contains the CSD version, it's usually 1
18:41:55pamauryor 0 (standard capacity) (1 is high capacity)
18:42:18wodzit reads as 0 on my 2GB card
18:42:22pamauryat 73:62 there is C_SIZE that's the device size
18:42:43pamauryand at 49:47 there is C_SIZE_MULT
18:43:06pamauryequation is: memory capacity = BLOCKNR * BLOCK_LEN
18:43:24pamaurywhere BLOCKNR = (C_SIZE+1) * MULT
18:43:24pamaurywhere MULT = 2^(C_SIZE_MULT+2)
18:43:43pamaurywhere BLOCK_LEN = 2^(READ_BL_LEN)
18:44:03pamauryand READ_BL_LEN is at slice 83:80
18:44:42pamaurybeware that all slices numbers include the CRC, ie CRC is at slice 7:1
18:45:01wodzThanks, I need to crosscheck this values.
18:45:52wodzpamaury: I know. I *think* thats why we use reversed word order. That way, counting backward we don't have to take into account CRC and end bit
18:46:25wodzand sd_parse_csd() uses regular slices
18:46:27 Join bertrik [0] (~quassel@rockbox/developer/bertrik)
18:47:19pamauryah and I forgot, the device size computation is different when CSD is 1.0 instead of 2.0
18:47:27pamaurybest is to look at sd_parse_csd
18:47:50pamauryindeed make sense
18:48:51wodzis there a way to read CSD from PC?
18:49:05wodzI mean placing card into reader
18:50:08pamauryyeah I think so, using /proc or /sys

22:01:02[Saint]I have chosen to just completely ignore Windows and OSX.
22:01:15[Saint]Even though its possible to compile on both. Fuck that.

22:14:42[Saint]Cygwin still attempts to be largely self contained.
22:14:50[Saint]But maybe I'm misunderstanding what you're meaning.
22:17:17foolshinstead of setting up cygwin, just having a colinux file system and a terminal to run commands, just seems like the shortest path

22:18:30[Saint]yeah, that would be a LOT of work for Jow Windowsuser.
22:18:33[Saint]*Joe
22:19:05[Saint]At least with Cygwin I can just say "install this, and put this conf file here" and it'll automagically pull in all required dependencies.
22:19:35[Saint]If the user needs to do it all manually, they may as well jump onto debian.
22:19:55*foolsh nods
22:19:56peturdon't know how they are now, but colinux was just as much a PITA as cygwin
22:20:19*[Saint] votes for avoiding the clusterfuck entirely. ;)

23:25:48nothingmuchHi, i have a sansa clip+, just installed rockbox and I'm really happy with it... the only issue is it's crowded in the menus, and I was thinking of taking the time to build my own rockbox so it's how i like it
23:26:15nothingmuchbut before I invest in a dev environment, I wanted to ask if there's a reason that setting menu items (not actual settings, but locations in the settings menu) and database entries are not supported in shortcuts?
23:26:46[Franklin]nothingmuch: you can configure the main menu with the plugin apps/main_menu_config
23:27:04[Franklin](only in the dev builds, though)
23:27:13[Franklin]3.13 and before don't have the plugin
23:28:14nothingmuchis it documented apart from the .c file?
23:28:30[Franklin]it's quite self-explanatory :p
23:28:57[Saint]The manual documents editing the main menu manually, not sure about the plugin.
23:29:12[Saint]please note that this is limited to the main menu only.
23:29:29[Saint]If you want to configure submenus, you're pretty much fucked.
23:29:48[Saint]Its /possible/ to do so, but its a lot of work for incredibly little gain.
23:30:05[Saint]If you don't know what it does, just don't use it...pretty much.
23:30:24nothingmuchso from a bit more of a user story perspective
23:30:34[Saint]The defaults of Rockbox are supposed to be good enough so that Joe Average can simply pick it up and use it without changing anything.
23:30:44nothingmucheither I go full on OCD or I just keep it as is
23:30:51[Saint]Right.
23:30:57[Saint]That's pretty much it, yes.
23:31:03[Franklin]... or write useless game plugins for it :p
23:32:02nothingmuchso full on OCD is worth it to me even if i waste a good while, but i don't think my problem is with the menus (i actually like having it all there) but the limitations of the shortcut system
23:32:15nothingmuchi guess I should just code dive and see how that's implemented
23:32:26[Franklin]nothingmuch: what would you like to see in it, specifically?
23:32:43[Saint]The main issue is that it can't display anything with dynamic content.
23:33:00[Saint]so, settings values, etc.
23:33:08[Franklin]only files, I think
23:33:20[Saint]Files and toplevel menu paths.
23:33:32[Saint]and simple on/off settings, IIRC.
23:33:43nothingmuchi'd like to be able to jump to the compressor and crossfeed menus (not the actual sub settings, they are too fine grained), and into the database categories
23:33:45[Saint]anything with a dynamic value can't be in a shortcut.
23:34:10[Saint]The database...not sure. I think just no one cared too much about it.
23:34:17[Saint]No one's touched it in years.
23:34:23[Saint]Its nightmarish.
23:34:34[Franklin][Saint]: I never figured it out :p
23:34:36nothingmuchok then I think my time would probably be better spent organizing my music files =)
23:34:40[Franklin]what's the point of it?
23:34:42[Saint]Most of us use the file borwser.
23:34:49[Franklin]bowser
23:34:58nothingmuchi rescued some files from my dad's iphone and they're a mess but that's an easy fix
23:35:26*[Saint] recommends Musicbrainz Picard
23:35:39[Saint]Just point that at it and go.
23:35:46nothingmuchand I guess I can just live with the compressor threshold in the shortcuts for now
23:35:53[Saint]Its quite possibly the best tagging software ever.
23:36:03nothingmuchyeah it's awesome =)
23:36:12nothingmuchok I guess you talked my down into a sane plan of action
23:36:29[Saint]The other issue with shortcuts is that they don't actually _enter_ the item you've created the shortcut to.
23:36:42[Saint]You have to actually "run" it or select it in many cases after the fact.
23:36:50[Saint]Somewhat annoying and largely defeats the purpose.
23:37:01[Franklin]it'd be nice if everything were a file in rockbox
23:37:17[Saint]o_o
23:37:19[Franklin]like making settings little plugins
23:37:41[Franklin]perhaps a little binary file that could be viewed by a "settings.rock" viewer
23:38:20[Franklin]and have them in the current menu structure, but under /.rockbox/settings/
23:38:23[Saint]That sounds as though it would make localization needlessly difficult.
23:38:36[Saint]and vastly increase binsize.
23:39:02[Franklin]no... it'd just need to store the title and options
23:39:21[Franklin]which could both be pointers to a localized string
23:39:29[Franklin](though I'm not sure that's how localization works)
23:40:42[Franklin]I think windows does something similar with .cpl files
23:42:20[Franklin][Saint]: and plus, compiling it into the rockbox image would use roughly the same amount of space
23:42:21nothingmuchare you talking about leaf level settings or the entire hierarchy?
23:42:32[Franklin]entire hierarchy
23:43:30[Franklin]in /.rockbox/settings, there'd be a "index.rst" file that listed the names of other files in that directory to "include"
23:43:59[Franklin]as well as directories under .rockbox/settings
23:44:15[Franklin]and in each of those dirs is another index.rst
23:44:32nothingmuchi keep wanting to ask questions but I realize I don't know the right questions to ask, need to read some code first =)
23:45:34nothingmuchanyway, thanks for your time guys, i'll probably pester you some more in the coming days as I get used to things, and if a sane way to extend the shortcut system can be found I'd be happy to throw some mythical man hours at it
23:46:16nothingmuchi'd really love it if i could just treat the shortcuts as my "main menu" and have the main menu really be the "full menu"
23:46:36nothingmuchbut that's just the control freak in me, i'm really elated by what rockbox gives me out of the box
23:46:57nothingmuchsee you!

23:53:05[Franklin]the index file specification: http://pastebin.com/Awy3yZJh
23:56:00[Franklin]ah... the only problem would be callbacks
