Rockbox

This patch adds a changable wheel scroll speed option on ipod video.

As discussed on the mailing list this patch gets rid of the “About to Erase Dynamic Playlist” warning and replaces it with a menu option to save the current playlist under it’s existing name.

The attached patch is a first cut for review as I’m just getting used to the menu system. If people think it’s the right way to go I’ll clean it up properly. Any suggestions for tweaks to the functionality also welcome.

Tested on r24190-100105

To reproduce:
- Start Rockbox, default setting
- Play a file with ID3 tags which are encoded in some non-Latin locale (In my case, Hebrew). Notice that the strings are shown in Gibberish.
- Change Default Codepage to the other locale (e.g. Hebrew).
- Go back to WPS

Expected result: All strings that are encoded in the other locale are shown properly.
Current result: All these strings are shown in the original locale.

Workaround: Restart the player. The new locale is applied.

I will not have time to fix this myself, so I'll appreciate if someone else can take responsibility for this bug. Thanks.

I would like to change voice strings to make them sound better with a specific SAPI voice.

I don’t intend to change string in *.lang directly.
It should be done in voice.pl dinamically while building voice, shouldn’t it?

This patch adds detection of the charger connection. Not tested on a 1G, but should work if the ipodlinux GPIO documentation is correct.

NOTE: 'Charging' is not detected, just the presence of external power. See http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=18196.0 for forum topic.

This patch contains several improvements to the Chopper game designed to make it run with a high framerate instead of a low, jerky one. Previously, the game depended on sleeping for a number cycles before drawing another frame, causing very jerky motion. Now the game should run at a high framerate all the time. The gameplay should be about the same, at least on targets with a display of >64px. I don’t have any of these smaller targets, so I wasn’t able to test. Please tell me what you think of my changes.

I like to keep the equalizer on with the precut set to -24db, as a volume limiter. I also like the fade on stop/pause set on. When I pause there is a noticeable ‘click’ sound after the music fades out. Also a click before fading in when I resume.

This was not always the case, but I am not sure how old the version I was using, that did not do this.

By the way, this also occurs on the Gigabeat S, as well as Gigabeat F. I don’t know about other models.

Let me know if you need more information.

Currently running r19940 but there doesn’t seem to have been any chage in the power code for the gigabeat S recently.

The issue is that there is a regular clicking noise heard if DC power is connected while the battery is fully charged. This noise is not heard while the battery is charging. The same power adapter doesn’t cause the same noise on an F.

if bookmark=ask is set and the mpeg is stopped, the user is asked for pressing select (for make bookark) or any key (for discard)
on apple devices: if the clickwheel is used for discarding, the bookmark is not set (as intended) but the clickwheel is not working anymore.
to get the clickwheel working again, the keyboard lock has to be set and unset and select has to be pressed.

There is a bug with the clip zip that when you plug a device in for the first time it doesn't install succesfull the driver and when i unplug it the device crashes and needs a hard reset

The Clip Zip's text viewer does not bookmark anymore. When holding down the Submenu and Select keys (which according to the manual sets a bookmark), no bookmark is created, and the screen flashes between the context menu and the text file instead. This bug has been confirmed by skip252 here: [ http://anythingbutipod.com/forum/showthread.php?p=629493&posted=1#post629493 ].

Rockbox build is the latest dev build at the time of filing [62de15f-130103].

I know keymap changes can be a difficult topic, this one however is just a small change - which, I hope, improves usability of Clip players quite a bit.

I just swapped the behavior of two functions when browsing lists: short press on the power button returns to WPS, and pressing menu + center stops playback while in lists. Return to WPS is arguably the much more often used functionality of the two, and this change makes it easier to do that.

First, thanks for existing …

I just bought a 8GB Sansa Clip+ and had issues when trying to listen 24 bit Flacs, which was instantly solved using RockBox. Well, the issue I’d like to report is that it freezes when I plug it into my Mac while having the SD card on it; to avoid this I have to remove the SD card, but this is kind of unconfortable.

Any advise?

Thanks in advance

I think there is a problem with a .ape codec ,when i play .ape files it will have a sound like radiosound.The time happen randomly with each .ape files and when i playback again it still happen at that time.Exp:ABC.ape will have have a noisy sound at 0:10 and when i play again it still happen at 0:10

Overview:

This adds the hotkey [short home], and allows you to stop/start play more or less anywhere [long home] which I find quite useful. Hopefully, it’s a little more consistent too, though it still needs a bit of polish.

Problems:

I’d quite like [short power] to stop play in the menus by calling ACTION_TREE_STOP, but unfortunately that only works for local files, not for the radio, which feels inconsistent. I’ve put in a feature request; http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=25657.0

The recording screen isn’t very consistent with the rest of the keymap - you can press [left] or [home] to get back to the menu, and [short power] and [right] both open the recording menu. This seems to be a peculiarity of the way the recording screen is designed, though I’ll try to improve it.

There is a ‘glitch’ in that when you press [long home] deep in the menus, it’ll sometimes jump through another menu before dropping back to the WPS / Radio screen.

Some users prefer to have a free button with which to turn the backlight back on - they are seemingly used to using [short down], which is bound to playlist here. However, if they don’t set the WPS hotkey, they’ll still have a ‘functionless’ button, so no functionality is lost.

I haven’t touched the HID part at all, because I have no clue what it does…

Details of major changes:
WPS:
[Long up] Pitch screen
[Short down] Playlist screen
[Long down] Quick screen
[Short home] Hotkey
[Long home] Stop

Pitch screen:
[Short select] Cycle mode
[Long select] Reset

Recording screen: (troublesome)
[Short select] Start / pause
[Short left] / [Short home] New file / exit
[Short right] / [Short power] Recording menu
[Volume] Adjust settings

Radio screen:
[Short select] Scan / search
[Long select] Presets
[Short down] Radio menu

Built against r2799. All comments and suggestions welcome, and thanks for reading.

First noticed the issue in the previous dev build, and just confirmed in 15fa7f8.

When playing .opus files, no metadata is displayed. Some files (92kbit stereo music files so far) do play fine otherwise. Others induce crashes upon attempting to play. An example is attached.

First test, I played a couple of music files successfully, then tried to play the attached file. System crashed immediately showing the following:
“Undefined instruction
pc:30000002 sp:300632[display cuts off here]
bt end”

Powered off, restarted, and tried to play the attached file immediately. After a second or so of audio, player crashed again:
“Undefined instruction
pc:08180002 sp:302029[display cuts off here]
bt end”

On the previous dev build, I was getting similar errors if I tried to play the attached file (or several other similar ones) after successfully playing other files, but would get a black-screen crash if I tried to play it immediately on powerup (this is not what is happening on 15fa7f8).

I am NOT experiencing these problems on another AMSv1 player (Sansa c240 [”c200v1”]) with the same dev build, so this may be specific to the Clipv1. On the c240 with both the previous build and 15fa7f8, metadata displays fine and the attached file plays without any apparent error.

What the title says.
At whatever sample rate I use (24k & 48k tested), each sample is duplicated.

The attached patch implements a clean disk unmount by way of the following changes:

Patch 1: Allow disk_unmount_all to close all files and flush dirty buffers when unmounting a filesystem. (Before, we've been calling disk_unmount, which does not flush buffers because it's written to handle user-ejected storage media that aren't accessible any more.)

Patch 2: Call disk_unmount_all in the power-down and reboot paths.

Patch 3: Fix write to detect a bad file handle.

(Split out from FS#11877, in which I first theorized that an unclean filesystem may be responsible for some filesystem corruption I'm seeing, but which turned out to be a deeper problem. Related to r28693 /  FS#11774 , in which we introduced disk unmounting before entering USB mode.)

After reading the irc log shortly after the flashlight plugin was committed i noticed that some want the ability back to finetune the colour of the display. This time i’ve added a fixed point version of the hsv_to_lcd version (thanks to amiconn) and added some more predefined colours. You can “skip” forwards or backwards to the nearest predefined colour (however, it’s probably not the nicest way of doing it i guess).

I’ve also implemented another request to switch the backlight on and off (even for non colour targets) and it now uses the remote backlight too.

Controls:
Targets with a 4 button cross:
Up/Down: fine tune
Left/Right: jump to next predefined colours (including white)
Select: switch backlight on and off

Targets with scroll wheel:
Scroll left/right: fine tune
Left/right or fwd/rew: jump to next predefined colours (including white)
Select: switch backlight on and off

I’ve tried to guess the most intuitive button layout on all targets and even use the remote buttons. However i only own a small number of targets so if you think it can be done better let me know.

Tested on iPod Video, Mini (sim), H300 (sim) and m:robe 100.

Note: This is work in progress.
Status: Code implemented

      Manual not updated
      Wiki not updated (only after commit)

The idea of this patch is to have the same keyboard keys assign to the same actions in all platforms.

For example, have +/- keys (both on keyboard and on Numpad) are assigned to Volume Up and Volume Down keys of the original platform.
For platforms which do not have these keys, pressing the +/- keys in the simulator will do nothing.

This change will help developers to do manual regression testing on lots of platforms easily, as they do not have to memorize each platform’s key assignment.

Future development: Display key assignment on screen, and/or on console

Hi,

There is a compilation problem when the environment variable BLOCK_SIZE is set. It gave me errors about a comma.

This can be set or cleared systematically or on a command by command basis.

Suggestion one; unset BLOCK_SIZE and its relatives high in the build chain, but be prepared for POSIX to bite with 512 byte blocks.

Suggestion two; set LS_BLOCK_SIZE=1 high in the build chain. (And DF_BLOCK_SIZE=1024 and DU_BLOCK_SIZE=1024 ?)

Suggestion three; edit apps/lang/Makefile so that

$(SILENT)echo “#define MAX_LANGUAGE_SIZE `ls -ln $(OBJDIR)/* | awk ‘{print $$5}’ | sort -n | tail -1`” > $(HEADER)

becomes

$(SILENT)echo “#define MAX_LANGUAGE_SIZE `ls -ln –block-size=1 $(OBJDIR)/* | awk ‘{print $$5}’ | sort -n | tail -1`” > $(HEADER)

or

$(SILENT)echo “#define MAX_LANGUAGE_SIZE `LS_BLOCK_SIZE=1 ls -ln $(OBJDIR)/* | awk ‘{print $$5}’ | sort -n | tail -1`” > $(HEADER)

Suggestion four; just tell people that they are not allowed to have commas in their core utilities output (and be prepared to be bitten badly if the default block size ever changes).

BTW I *like* having thousands separators on my command line, so I have

export BLOCK_SIZE=\'1
export DF_BLOCK_SIZE=\'M

in my /etc/bashrc file.

This patch enables you to compile the Rockbox simulator with LLVM (you still need to alter the Makefile yourself though).

However, it fails at linking stage with 'file not recognized: File truncated' errors.

The config caused the iPod to appear frozen (frozen screen) after bootup. The iPod would boot, show the normal boot screen and then created a boot screen mixed with theme settings. Picture: http://imgur.com/E4srA the iPod refuse and refused to mount.

Fix:
1: Boot into recovery diskmode
2: Remove conflicting config.cfg
3: Reboot into normal mode

Rockbox already exists for several years (fortunately), however it doesn't include a contacts list plugin by default, most likely because no one had coded one until now. As it's something that sometimes becomes handy, I decided to write my own, and as it's a simple enough plugin I've written it in LUA, to serve the purpose of a contacts plugin, to have a working example of a LUA plugin (that is not a game) and to explore the (im)possibilities of the LUA interpreter of Rockbox.

So this task will handle the development of a contacts plugin. Attached goes a BETA (but already very complete) version of the plugin. Just copy to your device (any location) and "play" the file.
The database where the contacts are stored is located at the root of your player, in a file called contacts.txt. The name and location of this file is subject to change in future versions, but the way contents are stored will probably keep being the same, so you can start adding your contacts (you can edit the file in the PC as long as you keep the format valid for LUA interpretation).

Key features (already implemented):
- View first, middle and last name of the contacts just after you open the plugin (fixed name order)
- Add contacts (lots of fields, I won't be adding more for now)
- Delete contacts (permanently and without confirmation, take care)
- View contact fields (after selecting it in the menu)
- View specific fields in their own screen (where you can also clear and, in the future, edit them)
- (Should be) Compatible with any Rockbox target that interprets LUA because the interface is entirely made of standard RB menus
- Works (at least) on my iPod Nano 2nd Gen
- Wonderful LACK OF warranty that it will work or that the plugin won't delete your contacts accidentally. Use keeping in mind this is a BETA version

To be implemented (for sure):
- Edit contacts
To be implemented (when I have time):
- Order the way names are displayed (e.g. first→middle→last to last→first→middle)
- Search for contacts by inputing part of any of the fields content
- Order contacts by categories (that's why there's a "Category" field on them)
To be implemented (if my programming skills allow it):
- Associate a image file to a contact, which will be shown when the contact is selected (and if someone codes it, why not a pictureflow of contacts?)
- Import and export contacts as vCards
- More configurable settings

Another additional note is that the current code of the plugin is not in agreement with the Rockbox coding style guidelines, I've tried to keep the number of chars in each line under 80, but there are lines where this is false. Also, the tabs are double-space instead of four spaces. This will be corrected when I finish the plugin.

Please test on your player and share the results, as well as any bugs or suggestions you might find.

I suspect this bug has appeared since r29333, r29341, r29342 but I'm not 100% sure, it worked fine a few days back.

When I delete a file it goes well, but after I delete a file after first switching to another application or to the Android main screen deleting a file locks the main screen, it also locks up for other Android native screens like the keyboard you get when you create a directory.

I use Android 2.1 on a Cowon D3 device.

This patch will correct how thai vowels and tonal makers display.

This is a sequel for  FS#5736 . It correctly displays the OEM-encoded short DOS file names.

Following code pages are supported: cp850 (western Europe), cp852 (central Europe), cp737 (greek), cp866 (cyriliic), cp862 (hebrew).

If you change the default code page (in the settings menu) and there are files that are displayed with the short DOS names, you’d better rebuild the dir cache (if it’s activated) since the UTF8-name of the file changes.

When I compile the modified sources, I get the following warning which I don’t understand:
CC common/unicode.c
common/unicode.c:136: warning: function declaration isn’t a prototype

Could anyone tell me what that means and what the reason is?

After upgrading my 1st generation iPod Nano from Rockbox 3.6 to 3.9 the cover art display does not seem to be working consistently.

When using a playlist the first track will always show the correct cover art, but any tracks after that will continue to show the first track's cover. This also happens if I skip forward or backward between tracks in the playlist.

If I manually select a file to play the correct cover will show, and if I manually select another track during the play-back of the first the cover art will change to the new track.

I have also tried this with current build r30334 (2011-08-20T13:14:30) with the same results.

when rockbox startup, a loud popping sound will be produced to the output

if plug off the headphone before startup, and plug in on after startup, the popping sound also produced;

if plug it before startup and hear the popping, then re-plug the headphone will not hear any popping again(until i restart the rockbox)

Here’s a patch to have a functional usb_serial driver allowing the use of “Logf over Usb” debug function.

Added scaling image by menu/holdmenu buttons, scrolling horizontally by plus/minus, scrolling vertically by holdplus/holdminus, exit to viewer menu by power switch, switching files by combinations of menus and plus/minus buttons combination.

Requires functionality of the buttons in the Hold mode patch by andrewthecoder (I can't post it here, because this code is not mine, but you can take it with any config on http://iaudiophile.net/forums/showthread.php?t=28467 or on http://uploads.arago.shell.tor.hu/rockbox/hold_buttons_patch.patch)

Changed controls: moving selection to the left/right by minus/plus buttons, moving selection to the down/up by holdminus/holdplus buttons, choice symbol by the menu button, backspace - long holdmenu button (at release moment), moving cursor left/right by holdminus/holdplus buttons (at release moment), confirm by holding plus button (at release moment), abort by power switch.

Added seeking by holdplus/holdminus buttons, pause/play by holdmenu button, hiding the OSD panel by briefly pressing power switch.

Added scaling image by menu/holdmenu buttons, scrolling horizontally by plus/minus, scrolling vertically by holdplus/holdminus, exit to viewer menu by power switch, switching files by combinations of menus and plus/minus buttons combination.

Requires functionality of the buttons in the Hold mode patch by andrewthecoder (I can't post it here, because this code is not mine, but you can take it with any config on http://iaudiophile.net/forums/showthread.php?t=28467 or on http://uploads.arago.shell.tor.hu/rockbox/hold_buttons_patch.patch)

This has been (slightly) discussed before, but this is a new take on the matter, not a repeat of  FS#10683 .

With this patch applied, the following functionality is recognised with the hold switch in place:

On any list/menu screen or the while playing screen;
pressing MINUS decreases volume by one,
pressing PLUS increases volume by one,
pressing MENU switches between Play and Pause,
holding MINUS skips back a track,
holding PLUS skips forward a track,
holding MENU advances to the next folder.

I feel that anybody using a Cowon D2 will find this functionality essential, not only because it is present in the original firmware, but because it is necessary for in-pocket operation.
With a small DAP like this, with tactile buttons as well as a touch screen, it makes sense to maximize convenience.

I have added as much functionality as I could without requiring pressing multiple buttons at once. I have made several similar patches and built them for members on the iAudiophile forums, and this configuration has consistently been the most popular.

I welcome any comments/suggestions.

I've tried a dozen of builds around, and it seems that the new touchscreen on D2+ is not working properly - there're wild distortions (sometimes it's possible to press a button on lower bottom of the panel, but usually it's to no effect at all) at the edges of panel - i have to press almost on the edge of panel in order to tap the buttons, for instance in this (http://themes.rockbox.org/index.php?themeid=1146&target=cowond2) theme.

When playing a sequence of two songs Rockbox on my HTC Desire S always crashes. I first had r30576-110921, and now it is r31516-120102. Cropped versions of the songs can be downloaded here:

http://www.vlado-do.de/rockbox/01_Wenn_die_Nacht_am_tiefsten_03m_08s_09h__03m_23s_22h.ogg http://www.vlado-do.de/rockbox/02_Wir_m%C3%BCssen_hier_raus_00m_00s__00m_28s_82h.ogg

They still reproducably crash my Rockbox. I found a workaround, though: mp3 versions of the same songs play all right. Rockbox for me still is the only known way to have gapless playback on my phone. Thanks for that guys!

Buy the way: the same ogg files made no problem in Rockbox on my old iPod nano.

Rockbox crashes when stopping playback of ogg vorbis files. This happens both, when I stop playback through long pressing the play button or simply if the last track in the current playlist is finished. It does not happen when stopping playback of mp3 files. Pausing does not cause a crash, only stopping does.

I reported this problem already in  FS#12669  which was closed since it was asserted to be fixed, but it wasn't and isn't fixed for me.

The bug occured in version 688302a of 04/08 13:15. All earlier versions (tested back to bb0e4cc of 04/05) are working and later versions are crashing. I just tested current version e5d6e42 and Rockbox still crashes.

i am shuffling through songs and set crossfade to shuffle only it still fades when i do a manual track change this does not happen when i set shuffle
should not occur as there is an option for shuffle and manual track change only, so the two options have the same functionality when i am shuffling it should be able to differentiate between
should be able to register that i have pressed next so the next song should not fade even though it is on shuffle.

When playing my only FLAC album (6 tracks), I can reproduce the following condition at will,
The player hangs in the last track, player does not respond to buttons and only a hard reset will fix it.

I can consistently reproduce the above bug as follows,

I start track 1 and let it play for a few sec's, then FF to 5 sec's before the end of track 1,
let it play the remaining 5 sec's of track 1 and let it change into track 2,
Play a few sec's of track 2, then FF to 5 sec's before the end of track 2, let it change into track 3,
Play a few sec's of track 3, then FF to 5 seconds before the end of track 3, let it play etc… ( I repeat the above until I'm in the last track),
when it has changed into the last track, FF to 5 sec's before the end of the last track and let it play, when play time reaches 1~0 sec's before the end of the last track, the player hangs in that last track with the disk activity light on continuously, player does not respond to buttons and only a hard reset will fix it.

Using release 3.13 on the clip zip, if I were to put the main crossfeed setting on the right button of the quickscreen, it would cycle through to custom but then stop. If I use the left button of the quickscreen, then after custom there is a data abort crash.

Using build c64b59f-140304, both the left and right quickscreen buttons work to cycle through all 3 settings for crossfeed, but I can still trigger the crash if I use the left button. It seems to be sporadic and timing dependent, because if I click through the options quickly it works fine, but if I slow down and hold the buttons for longer at a time then it will eventually trigger.

Here is a picture of the crash: http://i.imgur.com/wS1CqVr.jpg The text is:

Initialization of the database, from scratch, on the Fuze v2, using a fresh SVN build, fails when committing.

It scans all files, gets to committing 4/9, then hangs at “building database, N files found”.

If I reboot, it tries to commit on reboot, stops at 4/9, then boots into rockbox with no database (ie it asks me to initialize if I try to view it).

Attached are my database* files.

This is a bug in post-3.9 code, as I don’t have the problem with a 3.9 release.

The database hangs when doing initialization if there is no music file on the player.

How to reproduce:
1. Install Rockbox.
2. Put some music files onto the device.
3. Initialize database.
4. Reboot.
5. Remove all music files from the player.
6. Initialize database.
