 8561 RockboxPatchesMusic playbackLow Stereo Crossfade 2008-02-0551 Task Description

Creates a stereo crossfade effect.
The old song fades out to the right and the new song fades in from the left.

Makes crossfades more pleasant as songs with non-matching beats are sepereted between left and right instead of being mixed together.

Some recommended settings to hear the stereo crossfade:
Fade-In Delay: 0s
Fade-In Duration: 10s
Fade-Out Delay: 0s
Fade-Out Duration: 10s
Fade-Out Mode: Crossfade

Code is still proof-of-concept as there are no settings for it currently. Crossfade is hardcoded to go from left to right, but can be easily changed in the code.
 7588 RockboxPatchesDriversLow ata_wakeup() 2007-08-1283 Task Description

The ata_wakeup() function does the opposite of ata_sleep(), it spins up the hard-disk in background.
This makes it possible to start the disk in advance to reduce access time later.

It also eliminates some duplicate code lines in ata.c.
 6747 RockboxPatchesPluginsLow y-margin reset in gui_list_draw 2007-03-0641 Task Description

When calling a menu function, the y-margin got changed, but was not reset after the function returned.

The patch fixes this behaviour and removes all unnecessary calls to lcd_setmargins from the plugins.

Updated German translation (including root menu) and an translated the not yet included Recording Enhancements Pack (extras patch).

6697RockboxPatchesPluginsLowNew dict plugin2007-02-2515865 Task Description

This is an almost complete rewrite of the current dict plugin.

It is based on the stardict dictionary file format and acts as a viewer for .idx files.

Most important features are:
- fuzzy search by showing all articles that start with a certain word
- quite fast search (binary search, same as the current dict plugin)
- scrolling for long descriptions
- handles even huge dictionaries (e.g. Wikipedia)

When first opening a dictionary, an offset table is created to provide random access to the index file.

Stardict dictionaries can be used almost directly but all files have to be uncompressed.

I created another patch, which adds a “Dicionaries” entry to the root menu (FS# 6630). It shows all dictionaries placed in “/dicts”.

Some more information may be found in a thread about an older version on MisticRiver http://www.misticriver.net/showthread.php?p=546738

 6656 RockboxPatchesPluginsLow SPDIF flashes to music 2007-02-1211 Task Description

If not used, the SPDIF-out flashes to the music, when you’ve started the vu_meter plugin.
 6413 RockboxFeature RequestsLCDLow text viewer function 2006-12-043 Task Description

The viewer plugin should be ported to the rockbox api as a generic viewer function for text buffers.

With such a function in the plugin api it would be easy to display text (help messages, manuals) in plugins.
When used in the dict plugin it would be also possible to scroll lines in long descriptions.
 6143 RockboxPatchesPluginsLow backlight_dim visualization 2006-10-0811 Task Description

This patch adds backlight_dim to the plugin API. The function is used in VU meter to change the backlight dimming according to the music.

I think it's an impressive way to visualize music and I would like to see an option in the backlight settings, which dims the backlight dimming like in the patched VU meter.
