10:00:19speachyHmm, wonder if OlsroFR could channel some of their energy into bringing the FR translation up from its <75% state.
10:01:25edhelas_speachy I'm on it
10:01:35 Join thanosengine [0] (~thanos@user/thanosengine)
10:02:33edhelas_The translation UI is really not simple to handle, also it would be nice to split "main" translations and the plugins ones.
10:03:06edhelas_Because I think that translating chess moves is less important than the artists/albums in the database view.
10:05:35speachydconrad: can you supply the .elf and .map files for that? Also, I created two symlinks for the v1/v3 loaders. Might need to update instructions.
10:06:28speachyedhelas_: they're all lumped in together as separating them was just not worth the complexity. that said, stuff that's used solely by plugins can be flagged as such.
10:06:41speachynot sure what difference that will make in the end
10:07:44speachy(in an ideal world, each plugin would have its own set of strings _and_ voice files. But managing that in a sane manner is a _lot_ of added complexity)
10:11:08speachymay work out simpler to pull up the page, hit "Create Full" at the bottom, then use $EDITOR to find all ### markers and go from there.
10:30:10edhelas_I'll give it a try

11:12:10dconrad_phoneand yeah, I plan to get the instructions updated. I would like to get some prepatched update files put up so we can move away from jztool too... I spent a few minutes yesterday tracking down update files for hifiwalker and surfans players, enough to largely cover our bases I think. I don't have any for aigo units yet, but those seem to be rarer
11:12:44dconrad_phoneI think I can easily extend my patcher script to output uninstallation images too
11:15:38dconrad_phoneand rbutil seems like it should be pretty straightforward, I would like to add a couple notes to show during the process tho, to advise to reformat the drive and such
11:20:02dconrad_phonewe can group players by brand and OF version ranges to cut down on the number of entries in the list I think

12:06:25dconrad_phoneI thought the unpatched files had been taken down? I don't see them there, unless I'm looking in the wrong place
12:07:59speachythe unpatched files were never public
12:08:03speachyI have them stashed locally
12:08:40dconrad_phoneah, I see
12:09:19dconrad_phoneI thought you meant they were up there on the wiki
12:12:14speachyand I'm not entirely comfortableeee providing images with patched bootloaders
12:12:22 Quit dconrad_phone (Quit: Connection closed)
12:14:07speachydue to the ongoing hardare revision shenanigans and users' inability to folow instructions.
12:14:28_bilgusI'd tend to agree there we don't want anything someone could sue us over later
12:15:02speachyIt's not the legal stuff, just a big support hassle.
12:16:01speachy(they lack standing to sue, because they're not legally distributing most of the stuff contained within their update images)
12:17:05 Join dconrad_phone [0] (~dconrad_p@205.237.113.8)
12:17:35dconrad_phonehmm, I figured it would be fine given we already have patched files for the hosted port
12:17:40speachy(yeah it's more complicated than that, but if they open that can of worms, they're in for some major self-inflicted pain)
12:19:20speachyloading teh wrong pre-patched hosted file won't result in the player being unable to boot at all, because teh bootloader is unmolested.
12:21:12speachyIIRC the easy "Recovery mode" is implented via uboot. As opposed to the jztool/usbboot stuff.
12:22:20dconrad_phoneit actually seems to be separate from uboot, its located quite a ways away on the memory
12:22:33speachyit's located in a different location, but uboot is what jumps to it
12:23:04speachy(ie spl loads uboot, which then jumps into recovery or the main FW image)
12:23:33dconrad_phoneand it doesn't get overwritten during updates, so worst case scenario (I've done this) is usbboot our bootloader to get to the recovery
12:23:38speachyit's particularly annoing since
12:24:02speachydconrad_phone: yeah, it's recoverable but more involved. and I don't want us to be routinely in that position
12:25:15dconrad_phoneI get that, its been pretty smooth for me but I know how to use jztool I guess
12:25:24speachybut as I was saying, this is particularly annoying since the update.upt stuff already has the abiltiy to distinguish between different/incompatible hw platforms, and ... nobody is using it!
12:25:37 Quit thanosengine (Quit: WeeChat 4.3.1)
12:25:40dconrad_phonebut I haven't had a single update go sideways fwiw
12:25:53speachywe've all seen the posts of "I didn't see the fw image for what I ahve so I flashed something else and now it's not working properly"
12:26:13dconrad_phoneyeag...
12:26:18dconrad_phoneyeah*
12:26:34speachyI don't trust the uboot binaries to be compatible across different hardware generations.
12:27:21speachyI guess we could FAFO. :D
12:27:34dconrad_phonethat's the spirit haha
12:28:45speachywrt the update.upt hw variation mechanism, earlier revs of theese players actually _did_ use it in the beginning..
12:29:12speachy(I think the H2 v1.3 was one of 'em)
12:30:24speachyI don't know if being noticed by HW/Surfans/etc is a good thing or a bad thing.
12:31:12dconrad_phoneI kind of figure how could they not know
12:31:33speachy(I mean, in the best case we would be able to ask 'em if there's any way to detect the different hw revisions at runtime and everyone wis) In the worst case the lawyers get involved)
12:31:37dconrad_phoneI imagine we drive a fair amount of sales for them
12:31:49speachy....I doubt it.
12:32:09dconrad_phoneeh maybe I'm optimistic haha
12:34:41 Quit dconrad_phone (Quit: Connection closed)
12:34:42speachyI'm willing to bet that HW/Surfans/Eros don't do _any_ of the SW work for these things; it's all done by Hiby under contract.
