jeepers | Thanks for the answers yesterday. Here's a quick one... | 00:05 |
jeepers | Is python installed on the device in the factory configuration? | 00:05 |
aCiDBaSe | jeepers: unfortunatelly not... | 00:05 |
jeepers | ok... just wanted to rule out something even weirder. | 00:06 |
*** bergie has joined #maemo | 00:06 | |
shackan | mmmm, I just read on the ML that the 800 can determine its orientation, sooo, does it have an accelerometer to do that ?? | 00:06 |
guerby | shackan, URL? | 00:06 |
nomis | woot, is today the great hardware-discovery-day or what? | 00:07 |
shackan | nomis, I'm just *asking*, I don't even have an n800 | 00:07 |
shackan | oh wait | 00:08 |
shackan | ok ok, you can beat me with a stick now, I misread the email | 00:09 |
nomis | shackan: do you mean the thing about the camera position? | 00:09 |
Jaffa | shackan : sure it didn't mean the camera position | 00:09 |
*** rev__ has quit IRC | 00:09 | |
nomis | shackan: heh, ok. | 00:09 |
*** rev has joined #maemo | 00:09 | |
shackan | right, it just refers to the _camera_ position | 00:09 |
nomis | shackan: it is just that today someone discovered an application to access an FM radio in the N800 that wasn't advertized earlier. | 00:09 |
shackan | I tought for a second that it could flip the screen when you put it horizontally like the iphone does | 00:10 |
nomis | shackan: yeah, that would have been a nice thing. | 00:10 |
MoRpHeUz | anybody can help me with a "dbus-send" command line to open a video ? | 00:11 |
wumpus | nomis: huh, seriously? | 00:12 |
nomis | wumpus: the radio? Yes. | 00:12 |
wumpus | do you have a link? | 00:12 |
nomis | wumpus: http://planet.maemo.org/ | 00:12 |
*** Guard][an has quit IRC | 00:13 | |
wumpus | I see, thanks | 00:13 |
jeepers | reposting link: http://www.maemopeople.org/index.php/jaffa/2007/02/07/n800_fm_radio | 00:14 |
jeepers | Jaffa: thanks for the write up | 00:14 |
guerby | wumpus, just listening to the radio with my N800 right now :) | 00:16 |
jeepers | MoRpHeUz: I can't help but I'm interested in what you are doing... what are you actually trying to do? | 00:16 |
garrett | I've been doing that most of today | 00:16 |
garrett | it's nice | 00:16 |
MoRpHeUz | jeepers: I'm streaming a video from my desktop. I can play it on n800's mplayer but can't using (gst-launch-0.10 -vm playbin)...so I'm trying to play another way.. | 00:18 |
MoRpHeUz | jeepers: I just can't understand because I copied a video that plays on n800's media player to my desktop and started streamming it (using vlc) and n800 just receives the video through mplayer... | 00:19 |
MoRpHeUz | couldnt make it work with gstreamer.. | 00:19 |
wumpus | guerby: very cool | 00:19 |
MoRpHeUz | jeepers: if you have any clue... | 00:20 |
jeepers | MoRpH: ah... I thought you were trying to control mplayer from another app via the dbus. I didn't know if mplayer was dbus aware. | 00:21 |
MoRpHeUz | jeepers: if I try to stream an mp4 file, gstreamer detects it as video/quicktime and says it doesnt have a codec... | 00:21 |
MoRpHeUz | jeepers: my next step will be to control mplayer from my app hehe | 00:21 |
MoRpHeUz | =) | 00:21 |
wumpus | I'm now looking at these i2c devices; seems it has tmp105 (some kind of sensor), menelaus (voltage setting), TCM825x (another sensor something) and TEA5761 (the fm radio) | 00:22 |
MoRpHeUz | if I cant make it work with gstreamer | 00:22 |
jeepers | MoRpH: can you check your mime types? Check the mime type mapping. See if you can't just force it to recognize mp4 as something playable by mplayer. | 00:23 |
jeepers | I'm not really sure how they map on the n800 as I was fiddling around and noticed that the magic file is a binary and there are a lot of xml files but they don't have anything mapped in the dev environ | 00:24 |
jeepers | I haven't looked at them on the device. | 00:24 |
MoRpHeUz | jeepers: with mplayer I can play it... | 00:24 |
MoRpHeUz | it's not possible just with gstreamer.. | 00:24 |
jeepers | MoRpH: ah.. sorry. I meant gstreamer. | 00:24 |
rev | hey kids! i'm trying to install new scratchbox for developing for the N800 on ubuntu... i added it to the sources.list file. which scratchbox-toolchain-* packages should i install? would these be fine? scratchbox-toolchain-9686-linux-ct4.1.0-2.3.6tls and scratchbox-toolchain-arm-gcc4.01-glibc2.3 ? or should i install a couple different toolchain packages instead? | 00:25 |
MoRpHeUz | ow, ok...I will try to discoverhow to do it... | 00:25 |
jeepers | MoRpH: maybe that will help... that's the only thing i can think of from here. At least you know it is receiving the stream. | 00:26 |
MoRpHeUz | jeepers: yeah! | 00:26 |
MoRpHeUz | jeepers: I'll try to discover how to force the mime type.. | 00:26 |
jeepers | MoRpH: good luck! | 00:27 |
MoRpHeUz | jeepers: thanks! =) | 00:28 |
MoRpHeUz | I'll report the result | 00:28 |
MoRpHeUz | =) | 00:28 |
jeepers | nice | 00:29 |
lle2 | rev: I believe you'd be better off using the installer scripts from maemo.org | 00:30 |
rev | lle2: huh, ok ... i'll do that instead. i thought, like most stuff in a debian-based system, it'd just be a few apt-get installs and i'd be whisked off to freedom | 00:30 |
rev | lle2: i'll do that instead - thanks! | 00:30 |
lle2 | rev: with sb & maemo, apt-get will definitely whisk you off somewhere | 00:31 |
rev | just not where i want to be? ;) | 00:32 |
lle2 | that entirely depends where you want to be :) | 00:32 |
lle2 | rev: and remember to ignore scratchbox.org instructions, they are there to confuse people | 00:33 |

JussiP | Would it be possible to decode RDS data from the radio streams with a software update? | 01:08 |
*** bergie has quit IRC | 01:09 | |
nomis | JussiP: probably not. | 01:09 |
JussiP | Pity. It would be cool, though. | 01:10 |
*** etrunko has quit IRC | 01:10 | |
*** Disconnect has joined #maemo | 01:11 | |
nomis | JussiP: from what I read on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_Data_System it seems to transmit data on a different frequency (not a radio technician though). | 01:11 |
nomis | The weird thing is that I remember a device which you could plug into line out to decode RDS. | 01:12 |
*** NickDe has joined #maemo | 01:12 | |
nomis | that kind of implies that it is embedded in the audio signal, but that conflicts with the information I read elsewhere. | 01:12 |
JussiP | Seems to be an issue of doing the proper DSP magic then... | 01:13 |
*** terral has quit IRC | 01:13 | |
JussiP | The radio seem smart enough to switch to mono when reception is bad. | 01:13 |
Jaffa | That's generally a "feature" of FM encoding. | 01:16 |
*** jpetersen_ has joined #maemo | 01:17 | |
JussiP | My old digital Crystal Clear Tuning Lock Whatever radio could not do it automatically. | 01:17 |
|tbb| | is it possible to get the output volume higher then now on the fm radio, like on the internet radio? | 01:19 |
*** dis has joined #maemo | 01:20 | |

*** Disconnect has quit IRC | 01:22 | |
Jaffa | |tbb|: just was exceedingly loud for me over the built-in speakers: started from home applet, brought up full GUI, pushed it and system volume to max | 01:24 |
|tbb| | for me only the half of internet radio loudness, maybee while staying at home | 01:25 |
JussiP | The volume was the same as other apps for me. Strange. | 01:25 |

* Jaffa tests a new version of 770-encode to try and bypass the stalling video problem. | 01:26 | |
MoRpHeUz | any successfull attempt of installing ogg/vorbis's plugins on n800 ?? | 01:26 |
|tbb| | jaffa let me know over ur success with it | 01:27 |
nomis | The Radio seems to have its own mixer channel. | 01:27 |
nomis | so make sure that the applet-embedded volume sliders are at similiar levels. | 01:27 |
Jaffa | |tbb|: will do | 01:28 |
*** dieguito has joined #maemo | 01:28 | |
|tbb| | nomis ive do all mixer ive found to the the highest level | 01:28 |
|tbb| | still 60 percent to my internet radio stations | 01:29 |
nomis | *shrug* no idea then. | 01:30 |
*** daf`` has quit IRC | 01:30 | |
|tbb| | anyway im happy to have an fm radio now | 01:32 |

[mbm] | someone needs to combine the fm radio with the internet radio app | 02:04 |
|tbb| | if someone like trance music and would hear an good internet radio station then go2 djdoboy.com | 02:05 |
* [mbm] usually uses clubkydz.com | 02:05 | |
JussiP | I've been hearing about this really nice station called bittorrent or something like that. :) | 02:06 |
|tbb| | jussi which u mean | 02:08 |
|tbb| | ah k | 02:08 |
|tbb| | mbm its more melody related on djdoboy | 02:08 |
[mbm] | |tbb|: they play various stuff, unfortunately they tend to loop it after just over 24 hours | 02:09 |
* sp3000 likes how the fmradio applet is a neat ~4-5px wider than the netradio and clock applets | 02:10 | |
[mbm] | heh, I noticed that too | 02:10 |
[mbm] | I then also noticed how the default location of the apps is a few pixels above where you can place them by dragging | 02:11 |
|tbb| | sp3000: u could change it by your own | 02:11 |
sp3000 | |tbb|: hm? | 02:11 |
|tbb| | http://www.maemopeople.org/index.php/jaffa?cat=20 first post of jaffas blog | 02:13 |

[mbm] | ugh; something I recently installed is having fun keeping the cpu at 100% when it should be idle | 02:18 |
|tbb| | add following lines | 02:19 |
|tbb| | X-home-applet-resizable=XY | 02:19 |
|tbb| | X-home-applet-minwidth=0 | 02:19 |
|tbb| | X-home-applet-minheight=0 | 02:19 |
|tbb| | save that, restart your device then u been able to change the size of the applet | 02:19 |
sp3000 | k, thanks | 02:20 |
sp3000 | apropos, can you get a cheapo DI-524 to do useful local dns | 02:20 |
*** Disconnect has quit IRC | 02:20 | |

[mbm] | ah, lamo .. I added a ~/MyDocs/root as a symlink to / because I got sick of the kiddie filemanager sandbox and now metalayer-crawler is having recursion issues | 02:24 |

|tbb| | do it like u want | 02:35 |
sp3000 | [mbm]: where's that position thing ... it's not jumping at me and poking me in the eye | 02:37 |
sp3000 | ah, found | 02:38 |
* sp3000 restarts the desktop again | 02:40 | |
*** neostrider has quit IRC | 02:40 | |
sp3000 | curiously, the fmradio applet gui frame is not in the same place relative to the position-editing frame as the iradio's | 02:41 |
sp3000 | so if you set the same positions, the appearance is different :\ | 02:42 |

disq | if you're using a debian based distro as base that is | 03:47 |
shackan | manual install isn't much harder either | 03:48 |
disq | of course my old scripts to start xtightvnc etc kinda helped | 03:50 |

disq | jwb_gone: they're working on it. there are a few installable players and gstreamer plugins but they all have high cpu usage problems | 04:06 |
disq | so it might drain your battery a little quicker | 04:06 |
disq | you could use mplayer though, afaik it's the best low-power solution right now | 04:07 |

*** jpetersen has joined #maemo | 12:04 | |

inz | jtra, well, I think they shouldn't be constants, but instead depend on the window size | 12:05 |
inz | jtra, so that it would use all available space always | 12:05 |

Akatemik | Hmm, now the sb-menu seems to be stuck. "See doc/ for documentation", but there was nothing about this command | 12:06 |
jtra | but there can more than one keyboard image | 12:07 |
keesj | jtra: in most situations the cursor will be at the bottom of the screen, how do you plan on working around that? | 12:08 |
jtra | I plan movable keyboard :) | 12:09 |
jtra | and the keyboard is translucent anyway so it might not be big problem even when it covers cursor and edited text | 12:10 |
keesj | It's great that somebody is experimenting with this ! | 12:11 |
jtra | I expect that "move" button will cycle some standrad positions in first implementation, and it would allow to drag keyboard later | 12:11 |
jtra | *standard | 12:11 |

konttori | ./mencoder "/Users/urhokonttori/Movies/Fantastic 4 - Rise of The Silver Surfer.mov" -oac mp3lame -lameopts abr:br=64 -af volnorm -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:aspect=15/9:vbitrate=512:vpass=1 -vf crop=586:352,scale=400:480 -idx -ffourcc DIVX -ofps 11.99 -endpos 00:00:30 -ss 30 -o "/Users/urhokonttori/Movies/770/Fantastic 4 - Rise of The Silver Surfer.avi" | 12:15 |
konttori | and then the second pass with vpass=2 | 12:15 |
jcml_ | wkd | 12:15 |
konttori | As you can see, I use the preview mode to check video conversions. At 18 secs there is a really good frame on video quality. the brick wall, when Silver surfer goes though empire state | 12:16 |
jcml_ | by "preview", do you mean using -endpos? | 12:17 |
konttori | for some reason the scaling looks wrong when not in full screen. | 12:18 |
konttori | yea, media converter has a checkbox for preview. that translates to -ss30 (seek to 30 ) and endpos 30, thus seek to 30 and get next 30 secs. | 12:18 |
konttori | Usually movies have nothing in the 30 secs. | 12:18 |
jcml_ | cool - ta :) | 12:19 |
Jaffa | konttori: have you found settings which don't result in the "video stalling after about 10-20 minutes" bug? | 12:20 |
konttori | Jaffa: I talked to ssvb yesterday. He thought it would be libxv bug. | 12:22 |
konttori | and not a codec bug. | 12:23 |
konttori | Although, having only the default mem card, I still haven't been able to even test any long files!!! | 12:23 |
Molagi | hmm does the newest mplayer work properly on n800, the others have been quite laggy | 12:24 |
konttori | I would have to go to buy one and it's so freezing cold in here atm that I don't want to go anywhere just to buy a mem chip. | 12:24 |
Molagi | the video warps | 12:24 |
konttori | Molagi: I think the latest version works just fine. | 12:24 |
Molagi | ok gotta download it then | 12:24 |
konttori | At least that video I just put there, works just fine in mplayer as well. (maybe even better) | 12:26 |

*** lsobral has quit IRC | 14:01 | |
Akatemik | kkito: Probably not for the same form factor, unless some other device (a Nokia phone) uses exactly the same sized battery | 14:03 |
Akatemik | Just 770/800 are such a small market, that there's no really incentive to make any 3rd party stuff for them | 14:04 |
MDK | MacSlow: did you got in touch with daniel? | 14:04 |

MacSlow | MDK, you mean Daniel Stone?! Well, yes... he replied on my blog | 14:06 |
Akatemik | Hmm, does maemo include pygtk? | 14:06 |
*** KevinVerma has joined #Maemo | 14:06 | |
kkito | Akatemik, others nokia products uses the same battery | 14:06 |
MacSlow | MDK, sad to hear that 3D in the N800 is held back by closed-source-driver-issues. | 14:06 |
kkito | 7710, 9500, E61 | 14:07 |
Akatemik | kkito: Then it is possible. But don't forget the news about exploding lithium batteries | 14:07 |
kkito | MacSlow, then there will not be powervr drivers for the n800 ? | 14:08 |
Akatemik | I'm sure the Nokia batteries don't have an exceptionally bad energy density, so to fit more juice into same size, you have to compromise from something else | 14:08 |
Akatemik | Usually, this is the structural integrity... | 14:08 |
MacSlow | kkito, well there are drivers... but closes source ones... | 14:08 |
MacSlow | kkito, and the ones that are there are only for 2.4 kernels | 14:08 |

MacSlow | kkito, so basically this means the PowerVR MBX on the N800 is dead unused silicon *sniff* | 14:09 |
kkito | MacSlow, Are you talkin about powervr mbx? or power VR (kyro graphics cards) | 14:09 |

konttori | So, does this: http://www.nokia.com/A4136001?newsid=1103306 mean that Gnuite can use Nokias maps in maemo mapper? | 16:20 |
konttori | So, will 3rd parties be allowed to use the maps database? Even if just for nokia devices | 16:21 |
robtaylor | wow, thats pretty cool | 16:21 |
Jaffa | I suppose it must get the maps off the Internet, so - theoretically - Maemo Mapper could use them if Smart2Go were never released for Maemo | 16:21 |
nomis | konttori: I somehow doubt this. | 16:21 |
Jaffa | konttori: Maemo Mapper's support for different map providers is a horrible hack, though. | 16:22 |

Jaffa | konttori: indeed. If *I* started touching Maemo Mapper's code, personally I'd not know where to stop. e.g. introduce some nice 1980s procedural programming concepts in there, like splitting out the source from one big C file. | 16:24 |

konttori | Jaffa: I haven't had a look at the code, but I guess that's the way it often goes when you start it has a hack project. Like gnuite did. I would assume he'll make a code cleanup at some point. | 16:25 |
konttori | keesj: maemo mapper could probably still draw vectors pretty easily. It does draw some things already. | 16:26 |
suihkulokki | Jaffa: the press blurb promises smart2go support for "linux devices" in future. | 16:26 |
Jaffa | konttori: indeed, trouble is as hack projects go on longer, they get more complex etc; making the refactoring harder. | 16:27 |
nomis | When I looked at MMs code the very first thing I noted is that I'd clean it up a lot before adding/removing functionality :) | 16:27 |
Jaffa | suihkulokki: indeed, and "all Nokia Nseries multimedia computers" | 16:27 |

ajturner | good luck w/ that - it's not their data | 16:30 |
nomis | konttori: what did you smoke and can I have something of it? ;) | 16:30 |
konttori | I think they might allow it to use gmaps data if asked nicely | 16:30 |
Jaffa | "Ask nicely"? | 16:30 |
ajturner | knttori, it's not their data, and I believe caching it is breaking their TOS | 16:30 |
konttori | ajturner, they cache it in google earth as well | 16:30 |
konttori | so, caching cannot be an issue | 16:30 |
ajturner | their client | 16:31 |
konttori | ajturner, I would think google does have pretty good license for the data | 16:31 |
konttori | and that they could extend it to google endorsed opensource projects. | 16:32 |
konttori | Maybe it would require name change and some nice google icons here and there. But could happen. Maybe with adsense support? Who knows. | 16:33 |
ajturner | konttori - don't hold your breath | 16:34 |
ajturner | for one thing, you can't use GMaps for real time guidance | 16:34 |
konttori | Well, I don't ... I don't even use the app, but still... | 16:34 |
ajturner | anyways, they don't need to be involved, it isn't clear what that would really offer | 16:35 |
Juhaz | it's not a matter of endorsement, but access... if it's open, it's free-for-all, no matter how well endorsed and well behaving the app... | 16:35 |
ajturner | Juhaz - well correct, apps like MM may or may not be against the TOS, but as long as they're not grossly infringing, probably won't be an issue | 16:35 |

littlefae | Hello there Nokia 770 fans! :) | 16:38 |
littlefae | And hi to you n800 fans too | 16:38 |
nomis | google was pretty fast at pulling the plug for that globe-navigation thingie that used the google earth data. | 16:38 |
littlefae | You can still get that thing I beliebe nomis. | 16:39 |
littlefae | *believe | 16:39 |
ajturner | nomis - what was that? | 16:39 |
Juhaz | personally I'm pretty surprised they HAVEN'T stamped on maemo-mapper, it's probably more usable and widely used than the earth clone was... | 16:39 |
maddler | Jaffa: is planet sleeping again? | 16:39 |
nomis | ajturner: http://gaia.serezhkin.com/ | 16:40 |
ajturner | Juhaz - Maemo Mapper isn't exclusively GMaps, it's a generic app, so you can use your own licensed/free data | 16:40 |
ajturner | *users* have on their own 'happened' to point to google/yahoo url's :) | 16:40 |
Juhaz | well, there is that | 16:40 |
*** NickDe has joined #maemo | 16:40 | |
ajturner | Juhaz - so Google/Yahoo/NavTeq/TeleAtlas can't *really* have anything against MaemoMapper, it just may watch for people calling huge tilesets to cache and throttle them (digitally or physically ;) | 16:41 |
littlefae | Physical throttling sounds painful | 16:42 |
ajturner | I think that's part of the small print ;) | 16:43 |
ajturner | what does smart2go use? | 16:43 |
Juhaz | same thing, navteq and teleatlas | 16:43 |
Juhaz | it's not as if there are that many alternatives | 16:43 |

*** hub has quit IRC | 16:47 | |
keesj | google maps is quite safe with there data because you download images and now the source data | 16:48 |
keesj | you will need so much disk space to make it usable if you want to cache it | 16:48 |
Jaffa | ajturner: ...which is why I'm interested in more flexible URI formats. It's similar to GPL "derivative work" discussions, if it realistically only works with one (or two) providers, there's no abstraction; whereas if it were possible to use variable substitution to use, say, streetmap.co.uk's tiles (OS grid refs IIRC) then that'd give Maemo Mapper more protection | 16:49 |
*** jjo_ has joined #maemo | 16:49 | |
littlefae | "Heh | 16:50 |
Juhaz | trying to apply logic is pointless when it comes to content producers protecting their "intellectual property", it doesn't matter how safe it is in reality if navteq and teleatlas believe it's not | 16:50 |
littlefae | I have a DVD here chock full of compressed data, maps, topography and overhead shots, and that was just for my own personal city.. I'd hate to see how much data there was for the whole of google maps | 16:51 |
keesj | "N800 rediscover the radio" | 16:52 |
ajturner | littlefae - where'd you get that? | 16:52 |
littlefae | Used to work for Bristol City Council, got it from the GIS team across the corridor | 16:52 |
alp | would be nice if the alarm feature could use the radio | 16:53 |
ajturner | littlefae - nice, not shareable though, eh? | 16:53 |
littlefae | The only downside is that the 3D map was incomplete when I got the disk, though it might be finished now, would have to check back with them | 16:53 |
littlefae | 'Fraid not, Not supposed to have a copy myself, to be honest | 16:54 |
Jaffa | littlefae: cool. Do most councils have a GIS team? | 16:54 |
ajturner | HIDE | 16:54 |
littlefae | Ours did, part of the planning department | 16:54 |
littlefae | They do site surveys and what not, to keep maps updated, inform builders of structurally unsound areas, places of high subsidence, that sort of thing, so I would have to guess that every council had one | 16:55 |

dwd | Yup. Got some libs, thrown them in suitable places (I think), kicked media player's gconf schemas, defined mime types, and Media player still sits and looks blank at me. | 17:09 |
littlefae | I'd try it, but it means installing Mplayer, or so I heard. Last time I installed that, all my MIME types got fubared | 17:12 |
dwd | littlefae: Well, I have Tremor installed as a gstreamer thingy. I've got the schema file done. Really just a bit confused. | 17:15 |

littlefae | Suspicious to be honest | 17:41 |
littlefae | I've not really noticed much difference, the only difference I did notice, was when I moved from Mpeg-4 to 'Mpeg-4 Improved' | 17:41 |
Jaffa | Tak: I do it for my DVD rips at home, and it's relatively noticable. I don't do it when transcoding to the 770/N800 - mainly because I'm rushing | 17:41 |
* Tak nods | 17:42 | |

MoRpHeUz | ok! thanks! | 17:48 |
littlefae | You can view the thing, but for some reason, the player will come up with an 'unable to play video file' error if you try to view anything else, you need to close the player first to play a new file | 17:48 |
littlefae | But only, it seems, at 320x240.. | 17:48 |

littlefae | Before I do, though, does the built-in player support streaming video? :o | 17:59 |
littlefae | I can't remember | 18:00 |
MoRpHeUz | littlefae: I couldnt make the built-in player play the videos that I'm streaming through vlc | 18:00 |
littlefae | Will prove an interesting challenge to me then | 18:01 |
littlefae | I mean, isn't .RM a movie format? The manual here suggests it supports streaming video. | 18:01 |
suihkulokki | part: the documentation is bollocks then | 18:02 |
littlefae | Wouldn't mind H.264 support on my lil baby.. | 18:02 |
cxmac | hey, anyone tried out the fmradio app yet? | 18:02 |
dwd | littlefae: You have it. | 18:03 |
dwd | littlefae: H.264 == MP4 == AVC. | 18:03 |
littlefae | Not precisely | 18:03 |
X-Fade | cxmac: No nobody :) | 18:03 |
littlefae | See I've done H.264 videos, they don't play | 18:03 |
dwd | littlefae: Well. MPEG4 has two video codecs, one of which is AVC. | 18:03 |
littlefae | Similar settings to the MP4 one, so it can't truly be MP4. :S | 18:03 |
cxmac | X-fade: seriously? | 18:04 |
dwd | littlefae: And AVC *is* H.264, the ITU and MPEG groups coordinate the standard. | 18:04 |
littlefae | Link me to this player app, so I can peeky at it. | 18:04 |
X-Fade | cxmac: I has been the talk of this channel, 1 day ago ;) | 18:04 |
X-Fade | cxmac: So you are a little late.. | 18:04 |
cxmac | I'm confused because I can't find the file in my filesystem. I've been looking around a little with xterm. | 18:04 |
cxmac | hah | 18:04 |
X-Fade | cxmac: You can add the applet on your home view.. | 18:05 |
part | suihkulokki: undoubtedly. file a bug? :) | 18:05 |
littlefae | dwd: I won't say it doesn't support it then, however it is my experience that all videos I've encoded with H.264, has failed | 18:05 |
littlefae | ....to play | 18:05 |
X-Fade | cxmac: it is an applet, just like the internet radio. | 18:05 |
suihkulokki | part: to the blackhole? | 18:05 |
dwd | littlefae: Hmmm... I thought it did it. Although now I think about it, I've not actually tried it. | 18:05 |
MoRpHeUz | I could just play streaming videos in RM (with built-in player) and other formats with mplayer | 18:06 |
part | suihkulokki: or go talk to the people responsible for it, whichever works for you | 18:06 |
cxmac | x-fade: yeah, I know. I can't find it though - i.e. it's not in the Select Applets dialog on the home screen, or accessible from the shell (it's not in the PATH) | 18:06 |
littlefae | I have a vast number of codecs at my fingertips for transcoding files, and only MPEG-4 has worked, even RealMedia didn't seem to work, despite being within the device limitations. :S | 18:06 |
X-Fade | cxmac: Did you install the .deb? | 18:07 |
tzz | I tried FM radio this morning, reception was *awful* | 18:07 |
littlefae | At least, this is with the supplied player, not played with Mplayer, since it destroyed my MIME types | 18:07 |
littlefae | tzz: Did you use headphones? | 18:07 |
Jaffa | tzz: It's not too bad for me (depending on location) | 18:07 |
cxmac | x-fade: no, that's why I can't find it, I'm sure... but I was under the impression it had been found lurking around on someone's n800, not on an external repositroy. | 18:07 |
X-Fade | cxmac: http://downloads.maemo.org/product/fmradio/ Go there ;) | 18:08 |
Jaffa | cxmac: you've actually installed it, I assume? | 18:08 |
MoRpHeUz | littlefae: I could play mp4 files locally using the built-in player...but for streaming it's just impossible..... | 18:08 |
part | cxmac: http://catalogue.tableteer.nokia.com/certified/dists/bora/install/fmradio.install | 18:09 |
cxmac | hah, no. I thought it was hidden in the os somewhere | 18:09 |
cxmac | right right. | 18:09 |
MoRpHeUz | I'm working the whole week trying to find a way to play my streams using gstreammer... | 18:09 |
tzz | littlefae: yes of course, you can't use it without headphones | 18:09 |
littlefae | So I noticed, MoRpHeUz.. :) | 18:09 |
cxmac | in the filesystem somewhere - how was it found? | 18:09 |
littlefae | How come the n800 hasn't got this fm radio thing built in? :p | 18:09 |
tzz | Jaffa: my car FM reception is perfect in those locations I tested, so it's not general reception, but the N800 itself | 18:09 |
MoRpHeUz | littlefae: using gstreamer all I could get was "unsupported bitstream" from hantro4100 decoder... | 18:10 |
littlefae | I mean presumably it has the hardware, or it wouldn't work, so surely it makes sense to add the FM receiver with the rest of IT 2007 | 18:10 |
littlefae | MoRpHeUz, I'll play around with MPEG-4 streams, see if I can't find a good trade-off | 18:11 |
tzz | littlefae: many things in the N800 are underused | 18:11 |
part | littlefae: it seems to have been added as a packaged add-on | 18:11 |
Jaffa | tzz: cars have a much better aerial generally | 18:11 |
littlefae | As for reception, I'd guess it'd be similar to that of the Nokia Mobile phones. | 18:11 |
tzz | Jaffa: I know, but we're talking perfect reception vs. extremely noisy | 18:11 |
Jaffa | littlefae: best guess would be it wasn't quite finished when they wanted to get the N800 released for CES | 18:11 |
Jaffa | tzz: hmm. | 18:11 |
cxmac | x-fade: how was the fmradio app found? | 18:12 |
tzz | Jaffa: I don't mind it terribly, just saying in case someone else has bad reception. | 18:12 |
littlefae | I'll play around with the N800 when I get mine this month | 18:13 |
part | cxmac: it was added to the nokia repositories by nokia, then someone tried their application manager and noticed that it's offering new stuff | 18:13 |
littlefae | Thats assuming I get an N800 that isn't locked up. :p | 18:13 |
cxmac | oh. I see. that's not as exciting. | 18:13 |
Jaffa | Earlier in the day/the day before, there was discussion about the FM radio component of the Bluetooth chip on maemo-developers. | 18:14 |
littlefae | Wow, that server installed easily. :D | 18:16 |
cxmac | Jaffa: do you think that sparked the apps release? | 18:16 |
X-Fade | cxmac: They waited until somebody started talking about it ;) | 18:16 |
X-Fade | lurkers ;) | 18:17 |
cxmac | haha. So now the strategy should be to spam the developer lists will all sorts of conceptually/technically interesting discussions to see what else will be released? | 18:17 |

ssvb | littlefea: how did you manage to destroy mime types with mplayer (mplayer installation and mime types are completely unrelated)? can you provide any details such as mplayer version, ither software that was installed on your tablet, etc.? | 18:31 |
littlefae | ssvb: No, not really, happened such a long time ago, that it got fixed, and forgotten. Only think I can be sure of, was everything was fine til Mplayer was on there then removed. :/ | 18:32 |

ssvb | littlefae: did you try to install something else at the same time? I strongly suspect that such problem never existed in mplayer, it does not try to change mime types or any other configuration files in the system | 18:35 |
littlefae | Not to my recollection | 18:35 |

*** pleemans has joined #maemo | 18:38 | |
ssvb | I'm not sure if it is directly related to mplayer | 18:38 |
littlefae | I don't know, I know that up til Mplayer was installed, I had no problems, after I removed it, I had to re-flash my handheld | 18:39 |
littlefae | I'm sure re-flashing was extreme, but I didn't know how to repair MIME databases or my repository info, at the time | 18:40 |
*** tchan has joined #maemo | 18:40 | |
ssvb | here is the report: https://garage.maemo.org/forum/forum.php?thread_id=541&forum_id=171 | 18:40 |
littlefae | Now, its possible there was some other big involved, it may not have been, I don't remember, though I'll admit, the whole affair put me off using it, and I don't really need to anyway, since what it does, works fine as it it. | 18:40 |
kkito | littlefae, perhaps the problem it is with kmplayer and not with mplayer? | 18:40 |
tzz | ssvb: that was an impressive list you posted to the maemo list, I hope you have the time to deal with all those items eventually. How close (if ever) in the future do you think is playing of 800x480 content on the N800? | 18:41 |
littlefae | Don't believe so kkito, never even heard of kmplayer, for one. Anyway, its a dead issue, I don't recall enough information, and it isn't a problem to me, either. | 18:42 |
ssvb | littlefae: but you know, you may sometimes encounter various bugs that may lead to crashes, filesystem corruption or anything else that will force you to reflash | 18:42 |
tzz | those who use the sierra BT keyboard: is it good? I saw it in the store, and it seems too small for regular use. | 18:42 |
ssvb | littlefae: and the last application that was used before things got nasty is not always the one at fault | 18:43 |
Tak | I thought the sierra was larger than most bt kbs | 18:43 |
ssvb | littlefae: shit happens sometimes | 18:43 |
Tak | at least, the keys are larger, and it has an extra row of them | 18:43 |
*** benzea has quit IRC | 18:43 | |
littlefae | I'm am acutely aware that computers on the whole have risks of bugs, not just the 770, but also that, if you stick with what is working, usually it continues working, within the confines of what is there. | 18:43 |
tzz | tak: I have the Apple BT keyboard. It's a full-size keyboard, and typing on it is very easy. The sierra is tiny and has that weird 5-row layout. | 18:44 |
littlefae | The only thing I am certain of, is that Mplayer was the application that was removed from my system, and that in doing so, my handheld didn't work any more. All the other apps that were on it, are on it now, so my suspicion still points to Mplayer | 18:45 |
*** epx has joined #maemo | 18:45 | |

ssvb | littlefae: if it does not, we will have at least one confirmed problem with it :) | 18:46 |
dballester | thanks for the tip, etrunko | 18:46 |
littlefae | True, but I am paranoid, and don't like the idea of risking such things, til I can first find a way to backup the respository lists in an easy fashion, and then restore them as easily as I got hacked off with it last time | 18:46 |
etrunko | dballester: anyway, its in my plans to keep the latest version of the apps ported to both devices | 18:47 |
tzz | etrunko: I noticed something weird with evince on the N800, the toolbar doesn't go away in full screen or regular mode when you select the menu option for it. I don't know if it's a known bug. | 18:47 |
littlefae | I refuse to manually type those in again, on that on-screen keyboard | 18:47 |
etrunko | tzz: yes it is | 18:47 |
etrunko | it's like a missing feature | 18:47 |

littlefae | Does Abiword support MS Word Imports yet? :) | 18:48 |
etrunko | littlefae: yup | 18:48 |

littlefae | HELL yes! | 18:48 |
* littlefae looks for it | 18:48 | |
ssvb | littlefae: mplayer on 770 has quite a big userbase, with quite a low number of serious problems reported (actually only 2 so far including your report) | 18:48 |
dballester | etrunko, I think that could be a good success for N800, they are really interested in use N800 for is Sales Force Automation ( about 50 users ) | 18:49 |
littlefae | Good for the userbase. :) Seriously though, I've no need to install or run it, my handheld is fine with what is on there at present. :) | 18:49 |

dballester | XD | 18:50 |
littlefae | Only reason Mplayer went on there was for testing that Java converter app out, and it got made redundant, when my own encoding methods worked better | 18:50 |
dballester | but they need a good support evaluating the device and is capabilities | 18:51 |
dballester | this is the 80% of the success ;) | 18:51 |

mgedmin | oh, yes, the multitude of app installer dialogs is just annoying | 19:04 |
mgedmin | especially when stupid apps ask me to choose a menu folder | 19:04 |

keesj | mgedmin, I prefer the "application installation failed" | 19:05 |
ssvb | tzz: don't know about 800x480 playback possibility on n800, it depends on many factors such as bitrate, codec settings and the video itself (scenes with lots of motion and panning are heavier for cpu) | 19:05 |
*** fab has joined #maemo | 19:05 | |

Jaffa | littlefae: ah, old news ;-) | 19:08 |
ssvb | littlefae: this video processor block also needs some support in software, so not everything is so easy :-/ | 19:08 |
tzz | I know the bitrate of that is insane | 19:08 |
littlefae | ssvb: Of that I have no doubt, I just saw a diagram, it said 'video processing unit' and also had a '3d processing' unit which made me go 'Oooh' | 19:09 |

ssvb | tzz: only some miracle such as a working IVA may probably help | 19:14 |
*** koen|gprs__ is now known as koen | 19:15 | |
littlefae | ssvb: the chip in the n800 I heard isn't just 30% faster, but also different, so isn't it feasible that it might be faster still, like, say, comparing G5 to a G4? | 19:15 |
cxmac | littlefae: nice! I'm checking it out. Someone is already sharing material on our network, and now I want to. | 19:16 |
littlefae | Not to mention the 'potential' of its 'video processor', assuming it could be harnessed to assist | 19:16 |
tzz | ssvb: so you need to cut the bitrate 50% or so. Can the N800 play 800x480 video, though? Is the bus for screen updates fast enough? | 19:16 |
littlefae | cxmac: It's reasonable at its job, but for nokia 770, well, you need everything pre-customised for it. :p | 19:16 |
Tak | is there a 'quick' way to scale, say, an sdl surface using Xv ? | 19:17 |
tzz | ssvb: it sounds like it can definitely play AVIs ripped from DVD, which is great. | 19:17 |
littlefae | I was hoping Orb would've been usable as a local area network server. | 19:17 |
cxmac | littlefae: do you know how many hops on the network the UPnP packets will go? I ask because I'm a little familiar with zeroconf/rendevoux and I know it's limited to everything behind a single router | 19:17 |
ssvb | Tak: I had a quick look at SDL scaler, it can be optimized for ARM | 19:18 |
*** koen_ has joined #maemo | 19:18 | |
Tak | ssvb: even better! | 19:18 |
tzz | is UPnP UDP or TCP? If UDP, is it broadcast to the subnet or multicast? | 19:18 |
ssvb | Tak: actually it uses JIT for x86 now, but does not have any optimizations for ARM | 19:18 |
Tak | I *really* need to learn more about lowlevel arm stuff | 19:19 |
*** mukund has joined #maemo | 19:19 | |
littlefae | I am not sure I understand to be honest, though I believe it won't hop outside its own subnet, though I don't know. | 19:19 |
ssvb | Tak: scaler from mplayer can be relatively easily converted into a scaler with 16-bit rgb support | 19:20 |
Tak | seems kind of like overkill just to double scale for an emulator, though | 19:20 |
tzz | cxmac: it depends on the answers to my questions what will happen by default, but you can tell a router to retransmit UDP broadcasts to a subnet into another subnet, for example, so with the right router config you can send the UPnP packets anywhere | 19:20 |
*** koen__ has joined #maemo | 19:21 | |

waite | well I might need to take a ride to Cambridge tomorrow at lunch | 21:28 |
kkito | then it is simple to develop with it | 21:28 |
tzz | I'd get them for people, but shipping will be a pain | 21:28 |
waite | are you intown? | 21:29 |
*** bedboi has quit IRC | 21:29 | |
tzz | I work in Kendall Square, 5 minutes from the Microcenter by car | 21:29 |

waite | maybe 30 mins at lunchtime | 21:30 |
tzz | waite: yes, I see you are from a irobot address :) | 21:30 |
waite | ahhh I've been ratted ou | 21:30 |

nomis | mpf. | 21:32 |
roope | just tried n800 with maemo mapper and nokia bluetooth gps. it's quite nice. :) | 21:32 |
nomis | somehow I cannot control the master volume with alsas amixer. | 21:32 |
tzz | heh OK, at least you can go to Wachusett quickly :) yeah, if you take I-90, it's a quick drive, I hope you get one or more of the 2GB SD cards. | 21:32 |
waite | I think Ill take a trip in are they near the registers? | 21:33 |
waite | I tend to get distracted by the clearance carts there anyway :) | 21:33 |
waite | Thanks for the heads up | 21:34 |
tzz | the one I got was right at the register, in a little bin together with $15 2GB USB drives and such | 21:34 |
waite | cool | 21:34 |

tko | has anyone figured if there's any place to file bugs about the fmradio applet? :) | 21:40 |
X-Fade | Tableteer bugs shouldn't go through maemo bugzilla? | 21:41 |
X-Fade | I hate that the applet is aligned 2 pixels to the left. ;) | 21:42 |
dballester | bye! | 21:42 |
*** dballester has left #maemo | 21:42 | |
X-Fade | It doesn't align with all other applets. I can't push it far enough to the right for example. | 21:42 |

nomis | http://www.home.unix-ag.org/simon/files/n770/n800-statusbar-bug.png <--- look at the bluetooth applet. | 21:54 |
mgedmin | nokia LOVES triangles :) | 21:58 |
nomis | mgedmin: well the triangle is there to open up an "extended" applet area if there are too much applets in there. | 21:58 |
Tak | lol mgedmin | 21:58 |
nomis | mgedmin: but that sometimes seems to go wrong. (I have exactly 7 applets in the bar) | 21:59 |

jeepers | Tak: i thought the n800 only supported 2gb cards... | 22:09 |
nomis | tko: did you know that the sound control panel can no longer control the volume if the sound applet is disabled? :) | 22:09 |
Tak | afaik the stock kernel supports up to 4gb regular sd (from my gleanings from ITT) | 22:09 |
Tak | but people have created sdhc-enabled kernels | 22:10 |
nomis | ... when the sound status bar applet is diabled | 22:10 |
tko | *yawn* I should finish a presentation for tomorrow morning but the coffee I drank just made me more sleepy | 22:10 |

tko | nomis, I saw that somewhere | 22:10 |
nomis | tko: I filed a bug about it some days ago. | 22:10 |

nomis | disq: what is your problem? | 23:50 |
disq | i want a way to quickly toggle the left treeview. i tried sticking a full-height button to the splitter | 23:51 |
disq | but doesn't look good. maybe i should add a small button to the leftmost side of the toolbar instead? dunno | 23:51 |
*** luck has quit IRC | 23:51 | |
nomis | disq: you could try detecting thumb presses in that area. | 23:53 |
nomis | (non-discoverable though) | 23:53 |
Tak | can you detect clicks on the splitter? | 23:53 |
disq | i will also try to add a real-sketch mode where the pressure on the digitizer will change (or rather, tone) the ink color | 23:53 |
*** matt_c has joined #maemo | 23:54 | |
*** matt_c_ has quit IRC | 23:54 | |
disq | didn't try, but if i did, then people won't be able to adjust it rather easily | 23:54 |
*** NickDe has quit IRC | 23:54 | |
nomis | disq: you could also use the lower region (toolbar-height) for a button in the treeview. | 23:55 |
disq | there's also the part where i want to show both text and sketches on the same "control" | 23:55 |
nomis | Or make the toolbar span the whole screen and put a toggle button in there. | 23:55 |
disq | the button stuck to the splitter idea was not bad, but when i tried it the button was just too big | 23:56 |
kkito | disq, is it possible to add more pages to a sketc note? | 23:57 |
sp3000 | toggle button at the left end of the toolbar gets my vote | 23:57 |
* sp3000 hasn't actually used the app before though :) | 23:57 | |
disq | not right now, but will do. you won't be able to expand the sketch size (800x480) but will be able to add pages, hopefully. | 23:57 |
kkito | disq, :) | 23:58 |
disq | and also there's the thing where the sketches still aren't smooth enough, they rather have corners if you try too hard(=fast) | 23:59 |
