02:05:30edhelas_I think I might have a clue regarding my battery level issue. In powermgmt.c the faulty function is battery_level(void) that is returning percent_now that is actually a cached percentage. This value is updated in battery_status_update() that seems to relate to this case !storage_disk_is_active() || usb_inserted(), in my case I have a SD card adapter in my iPod.
02:06:25edhelas_So I suspect that the storage_disk_is_active() is kind of always returning true which in the end never update the battery_level status.
02:09:58edhelas_So this might be related to how the SD adapter ATA interface report its activity.
02:13:53edhelas_I think that this case was there because the Voltage is dropping when the disk is spinning, but it's not an issue with SD adapters, maybe a simple "if(SD) return true" might solve it ? Is there a way to know if Rockbox is running on a SD based iPod ?
02:14:12edhelas_*return false

09:57:13speachyedhelas_: Unfortunately I don't have any way of testing it (my ipod5g's zif connector broke)
10:00
10:02:02_bilgusedhelas_, nice sleuthing..
10:04:10speachyif that translatable-database thing works out as I hope, then extending it to full voicing of the DB is only a smidge more work.
10:04:26_bilgusspeachy pushing the virtual ptr through name should work nicely without carrying around langid and checking P2ID
10:05:11speachyyeah, I was fairly confident that was the case, but I needed to double check before I weighed in.
10:08:38speachyoverlaying the db browser onto the database tree viewer gives us a lot of stuff for free but it also suffers a bit from a square-peg-round-hole at times.
10:11:40_bilgusvoicing the db is one of those long time TODOs
10:13:47speachythere are some fundamental non-i18n-able aspects of the current design, unfortunately.
10:14:17speachy(due to how the entire menu structure is defined in a user-modifiable configuration file)
10:15:39speachyHmm, one thing that would help is to have the DB itself generate the list of "first letters" instead of relying on the static menu list. That way we can pull that aspect out of the config file and into the core.
10:16:03speachy(And I don't use the DB at all, heh..)
10:17:11_bilgusTBH i don't use it a lot either I usually just generate huge playlists but I think the random selection makes that a better way now
10:19:26speachysweet, the mini2g came back to life. I can now test my patch
10:19:54_bilgusfind a good ribbon cable I assume?
10:20:57speachyno, the battery had apparently died on itand it wuoldn't power up
10:21:31speachythe 5.5g I have with no audio out (and now, a broken drive zif connector) remains a basket case.
10:21:44speachywill probably take another change on ebay for a replacement motherboard...

10:39:48speachymeanwhile. I think perhaps we should flag all punctuation/symbols in voice strings other than ' , .

10:43:40rb-bluebotBuild Server message: New build round started. Revision a056150d52, 345 builds, 10 clients.
10:43:41rb-bluebotupdatelang: Flag '|' in voice strings too by Solomon Peachy
10:45:06speachyI'm not a fan of the large number of additional strings added in that db i18n stuff, but it's pretty much a 1:1 map of what's already in tagnavi.config and I don't think it's reasonable/feasible to attempt to concjucat in a way that will work for everything
10:49:40_bilgusadd in multiple languages and that becomes an even harder task, I think our eventual path will probably be to separate out the lang files for plugins
10:50:55_bilgusbasically load second voice file when plugins load problem being that you still have stuff in core so thatd need duplication or a way to have both at the ready
10:52:01_bilgusso probably a script to parse them (plugin lang strings) to go with it
10:52:59speachythem there's the matter of a sane way to present all of that to translate.rockbox.org or whatnot
10:53:22speachyit's not the "in core" aspect, it's the "sheer total number"
10:53:57_bilgusI think you'd just keep the whole scheme as is they are pretty well delineated and do the separation on the build side
10:54:16speachyafter this i18n-the-db eventually lands, I want to get rid of the static A-Z alphabetic entries and make that dynamically generated from the DB contents.
10:54:26rb-bluebotBuild Server message: Build round completed after 647 seconds.
10:54:27rb-bluebotBuild Server message: Revision a056150d52 result: All green
10:55:09_bilgusI think thats a good idea anyway but need to make it backwards compatible in that a lot of people have custom ones and you don't want to break them
10:56:20speachythe only customization I can conceive in the A-Z stuff is "adding $language's alphabet"
10:56:25_bilgusprobably just searching for the current headers and ignoring the ones that you'll be generating
10:57:30_bilgusI wasn't really concerned with their customization in that menu just that if you loaded an older tagnav you'd get both maybe thats not too bad versus the work of checking
10:57:31speachyif you'v ecustomized it, I don't expect anything to _break_ as we have to support the existing syntax anway. This would be some sort of unspecified extension.
10:57:51speachy(and a chagne to the default tagnavi.config)
10:58:46_bilgusso in that case make it optin and have a placeholder tag?? (#ALPHABETICAL_LIST_HERE)
10:59:15_bilguspretty close to free then
10:59:25speachyit would have to be some new token for the engine to parse/handle, yeah.
11:00
11:00:16speachythe way it works now is that the user is not supposed to modify tagnavi.config in-place; they're supposed to copy it to a different name −− and if that different file exists, it will be used exclusively.
11:01:04speachymy goal is that if the user is using the defuault tagnavi.config they'd see no difference, except for a potentially expanded list of "first letter" entries.
11:01:17edhelas_Why is the percent_to_volt_discharge and percent_to_volt_charge different with the 6g and similar with the nano2g ? With the 1200mah battery that I have it gives weird behaviours (30% battery remaining => plug charger => charging from 6%)
11:01:39 Quit jj5 (Remote host closed the connection)
11:02:01edhelas_speachy your patch fixes the issue :) But the percentage is far from stable, it seems that the curves doesn't fit with the battery I have
11:02:04 Join jj5 [0] (~jj5@100.80.216.139.dynamic.dsl.dv.iprimus.net.au)
11:03:07speachyit's probably because nobody analyzed the nano2g's battery curves carefully, or it was "close enough" as to not matter.
11:03:10_bilgusedhelas there should be a menu to change you capacity if the devices differ between models but otherwise its a compiled change if you have something odd
11:03:59speachyif the new battery has the same chemistry as the original, the percentage tables will be accurate.
11:04:08_bilgusif you have a stock battery (or if you don't) you can do a battery bench to update the curves
11:04:47_bilgusbasically do 3 runs from full to empth average them and choose some points to be your new levels
11:05:04speachybut that's a big _if_. putting aside the questionable quality of "replacement" batteries, there have been plenty of legitimate changes in battery chemistry over the past couple of decades.
11:05:22edhelas_I changed the capacity in the menu already, its more about the voltage. From what I see the 6G is the only one to have different values between percent_to_volt_discharge and percent_to_volt_charge tables. For IPOD_NANO, IPOD_VIDEO... and all the others the two tables are the same.
11:06:03edhelas_You can check powermgmt-ipod-pcf.c and powermgmt-6g.c
11:11:33speachyonly thing to realyl do is to run the battery benchmark with what's in there, and genrate a new set of tables.
11:11:50_bilguswell basically the bettery bench will help correlate that but likely its not going to be perfectly linear being that you are extrapolating that whole range in only 10 steps but it should be good enough

11:14:49_bilgusand its likely to be different between users with even the same battery as that will change between manufacture runs it'll change depending on the battery remaining lifetime and might change if you have a heavier load (sd versus spinning disk)
11:16:19speachyall that really matters is our upper and lower thresholds. and even then uppper doesn't matter if SW isn't in control of battery management.
11:16:46_bilgusbut the idea is to get it close enough to give an indication (hopefully accurate)
11:17:47_bilgusthe real danger is for devices that use SW powermanagement for the lower bound but the battery will still cut you off
11:18:10_bilgusso then its atleast just a unexpected powerdowm
11:18:52_bilgussuppose same with the upperbound but again the battery should save you
11:20:55_bilgusI don't know if we still have any devices where we have to do all the charging stuff (we used to not sure if it went away with hwcodec players)
11:21:49speachyI don't think any of our targets require SW management of charging. beyond plugging parameters into a PMIC/BMIC anyway.
11:22:26_bilgushopefully they went away :)

13:24:46OlsroFRAh you want me to directly put the correct name in the "name" field. The issue by doing so is that we need to retrieve the ID again later for voice speech...
13:25:11speachyname = ID2P(LANG_WHATEVER)
13:25:39speachylater when you need the string you'll do whatever = P2STR(name)
13:26:32OlsroFRP2STR will tell if it is a localized string and will fail otherwise ? But what is an entry (like an album name) has a name that is localized ?
13:26:40speachy(and we'll use P2ID(...) to retrieve the ID for voice purposes)
13:26:41OlsroFRWe don't want to localize real album names
13:26:56OlsroFRor dynamic things like that
13:26:57speachylook up the definition of that
13:27:11speachyif it's a non-localized string it just returns the parameter.

16:08:20speachyoh wait nvm

16:30:13OlsroFRlook like your patch was based on a former version of mine _bilgus. Since then, I now use fully name pointers, I do not even store lang_id anymore :) I put placeholders to add easily voice speech in my last patch
16:32:04OlsroFRyour solution probably works too though
16:33:05_bilgusyou still store them static char* current_title_refs[MAX_TAGS];
16:34:04OlsroFRYes it seems like it is needed for retrieval to store refs in this case
16:34:05_bilgusthe other thing is the overhead yours has to do that logic every refresh i believe
16:34:26_bilguswhere as what I pushed does it once at load
16:34:32OlsroFRyes. That's why my very first proposal was to cache everything at boot and refresh it only on language change
16:34:43_bilgusmine needs no caching
16:35:30OlsroFRI guess we should use your solution, it is less confusing that my last patch
16:35:35OlsroFRthan*
16:35:47OlsroFRI am going to compile it to test it
16:38:31_bilgusthe idea is for you to take it from there and finish it up should be enough to get you going but hold off a bit speachy might have some ideas

16:40:29 Quit jacobk (Ping timeout: 260 seconds)
16:40:52OlsroFROK. I will wait. I tested your implementation. Entries are fine. All titles are not translated (all root titles), like "Database".
16:41:58speachyI want to see what the latest rev looks like. I expect I'll want to incorporate some of #5934 but some of it feels like a step backwards (in part because it carried over some things I wanted to see changed)
16:42:29speachyand yes, we want titles translated too. :D
16:43:14_bilgusI'm not sure I follow everything looks translated to me
16:43:57OlsroFRFeel free to look what I pushed to use 1 hour ago to use the name pointer speachy
16:44:40OlsroFR_bilgus Set your player in french, enter the db, then you will see that the title will be "Database" with your patch. It should be "Base de données tags" when things are properly translated
16:44:59_bilgusoh the top level item
16:45:57_bilgusjust didn't make it that far
16:46:39speachyturns out that the top level item has historically been not translated
16:46:56speachy(overlooked, not intentionally)
16:46:58OlsroFRAside of dev things, today I received the Bose sounddock II I was waiting for. It's sounding damn good and I could get one for very cheap (just around 30 dollars). Now that I use docking features, I can understand why certain options exists like enabling auto backlight on each track change ;) .
16:47:34speachyevery feature is there because _someone_ found it useful and convinced at least one other person. :)
16:48:20OlsroFRspeachy The whole database entries were not translated, including titles. I had to fill up the static files with all the texts to allow translation. Top titles are translated in all other context (if I enter the "Settings", it's correctly translated)
16:49:29OlsroFRIt seems like the whole database context was coded without any kind of translation in mind at all
16:49:31speachyOver the past year I've fixed a bunch of titles in other contexts.
16:50:05OlsroFRAh OK. The rest of the Rockbox experience feels translated everywhere (especially in french thanks to the recent work of edhelas)
16:50:53OlsroFRAlso, increasing the contrast is another useful option to better see the screen when the iPod is docket. It is helping a lot to read the text especially when it is scrolling
16:50:57speachythe FR translation could still use attention; the voice strings with flagged problems and the large pile of "same as english" stuff that needs to be audited and either translated or annotated as intentional.
16:52:04speachyspeaking of FR, if you or edhelas wants to volunteer to maintain the FR translation, let me know and I'll add you to the notify-on-updates list.

17:05:59speachyyeah there were some USB fixes merged within the last month-ish IIRC?

17:08:17_bilgusbelieve it was g#5825 _lists_uiviewport_update_callback() was getting called with bad data
17:08:21rb-bluebotGerrit review #5825 at https://gerrit.rockbox.org/r/c/rockbox/+/5825 : [Bugfix] crashes on usb unplug, extra text on USB screen, viewportmgr ovfl on sim by William Wilgus
17:09:02_bilgusmight be something newer too but I haven't seen it crash since then
17:14:37_bilgusspeachy so you want to just call the talk files for each header then what switch them out per language isn't that going to be a ton of files to carry around?
17:15:23speachyit is, but.. there's no other way to voice the tags. one clip per unique string
17:15:50_bilguswell they are indexed so could you do db_engilish.talk
17:15:59speachythe headers etc will prefer the master lang file if possible
17:16:00_bilgusdb_francisis.talk
17:16:24speachybut if the user customizes them they can provide .talk files for those headers.
17:16:32_bilgusah
17:16:57speachyeg .rockbox/talkclips/database/headers/SomeCustomizedHeader.talk
17:16:57_bilgusbut you could also just give them a plugin to smush and index them into a single file
17:17:28speachyI see that as a future optmization that may not make sense
17:17:35speachyconsider that files (and db entries) come and go.
17:17:41_bilgusidk I guess its not terrible till you go adding more languages
17:17:55_bilgusgood directory structure would help
17:18:05speachyeh, there's no need for multiple languages in this context
17:18:08_bilgusthe calling side is simpler here
17:18:44speachythe user customizes their stuff? they generate the talk clips in their preferred language and that's that. as far as we're concerend, it's just a UTF-8 sequence to look up.
17:19:25_bilgusOH ok so you want to add a way for them to do talk clips like we do for folders
17:19:38speachyyep.
17:19:47_bilgusI was reading that as you wanted us to do that always
17:19:53_bilgusgotcha

17:21:04speachyso we'll need a tool that parses the dbfile on disk and generates a list of all the necessary strings, which it can then pass into the voice generation tooling.
17:21:37speachyheck this could even be done entirely in a plugin if we manage to integrate espeak, but I really want to support offline systems due to vastly higher quality options.
17:22:50_bilgusI think as long as it will fit I can get that espeak with static allocation running I have the make file about half way there after that I'll see if I can get it closer to upstream
17:22:51speachywhat I expect to do is build out the code tha tlooks for these talkclips and get that tested, commit that then phase 2 will be the enhanced dbtool/voice.pl generation stuff.
17:23:24speachyonce I have an end-to-end working implementation, rbutil can probably be extended to do this as well.
17:23:59speachy(or maybe the string extraction will be done in a plugin unconditionally, and that file can be passed into whatever. that's all TBD)
17:24:04_bilgusmy fear after looking at their (espeak) commits the addition of malloc adds a lot of 'features' that just serve to make it slower for us
17:26:36_bilgusI'd assume a perl script should suffice to pull the names out of tagnav but a plugin/native command line driven version might work out better
17:27:55_bilgusthen you could have the same-ish code in the same module for the plugin and the build side
17:29:32speachywe have a per-device dbtool build; I need to investigate if that's still necessary or we can get away with a universal binary.
17:32:03speachyit _looks_ like the actual on-disk metadata is the same regardless?
17:34:32***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
17:35:20speachyit does appear that in the swcodec-only world, all builds should work with the same dbtool binary.
17:37:35_bilgusit has handling for endianess in our bin I think and do we have any devices with opposing endian ????
17:39:33speachyI think m68k and the native ARM targets are all BE, mips is LE?
17:40:02speachyhosted ARMs could go either way I think
17:40:28speachyugh, forgot about the endianness.
17:40:34COMPL_EXE_bilgus: I was using 20240915 I believe
17:41:09_bilgusCOMPL_EXE, then thats new enough then
17:41:17speachyso creation of the dbfile probably has to remain at least somewhat target-aware but the data extraction can be universal since the DB files have a header with a magic value that will tell us the endianness.
17:42:25speachyI can't imagine the overhead of making the on-disk format to be a fixed endianness would be all that bad.
17:43:41_bilgusunless you are on the wrong side of it lol

17:50:55speachyI mean there's not that much numeric data. we don't use the on-disk structures in RAM.
