[00:41] <nerochiaro> DeepB: are you around ?
[01:02] <Q-W-Y> Any news about brick?
[01:07] <Q-W-Y> ppl
[01:08] <Q-W-Y> what's new in 2.28 ?
[01:08] <nerochiaro> file browser
[01:08] <nerochiaro> and tetris, i think
[01:08] <Yono> yep
[01:08] <Yono> 2.28 is out?
[01:12] <Q-W-Y> WHOW File browser is great
[01:13] <Q-W-Y> i've just updated it
[01:13] <Rez> where's it at?
[01:13] <Q-W-Y> Finally i can throw out stupid database
[01:14] <Q-W-Y> www.neurosaudio.com
[01:58] <nollidj> happy day
[01:58] <nollidj> hmn
[02:15] <nollidj> will setting the hidden or archive attributes on files on the neuros hard drive keep them from showing up in the file browser?
[03:13] <chreekat> Wait, so you can use a file browser instead of db navigation now?
[03:14] <Yono> yeah
[03:14] <nollidj> chreekat, that is so
[03:14] <Yono> you COULD HAVE a while ago, if anyone bothered to ask :-P
[03:15] <chreekat> Well nifty
[03:16] <Yono> hmm
[03:16] <Yono> Sorune: if you check the logs, the "The" feature isn't working correctly
[03:22] <chreekat> We don't use the HPI on the DSP, do we, since we don't have a host processor
[03:24] <unknown_lamer> Now the file browser needs a text file reader and a tag reader :)
[03:25] <nollidj> much agreed on a textfile reader
[03:26] <nollidj> and then it needs fsaa and 32-bit colors with a holographic projection display and fully immersive sound system
[03:26] <nollidj> but i'm willing to wait for the n3
[03:26] <unknown_lamer> Maybe the N4 for that.
[03:26] <unknown_lamer> I mean holographic projection!
[03:26] <nollidj> true
[03:27] <chreekat> haha
[03:27] <chreekat> Perhaps we should wait a bit for fusion power supplies to come down in size and price ;-)
[03:27] <Llamapalooza> dont forget built in shoe-tyer!
[03:28] <nollidj> and teeth-whitener
[03:28] <Llamapalooza> and air conditioner
[03:28] <nollidj> "the neuros personal holodeck"
[03:28] <chreekat> beer tap
[03:28] <Llamapalooza> "The Neuros Do-it-all-majigger"
[03:29] <AmericanTechpush> I rather have Pepsi on tap
[03:29] <nollidj> Now with Linux(tm)!
[03:35] <Yono> hey americantechpush
[03:35] <AmericanTechpush> yo
[03:35] <yonkeltron> i am having some trouble mounting my neuros on my linux box....i forgot to unmount it before i unplugged it
[03:35] <yonkeltron> oops
[03:36] <Yono> joe said aac came with the device from the factory
[03:36] <Yono> so no extra effort put in
[03:36] <yonkeltron> how do i fix this?
[03:36] <necco> yello
[03:37] <AmericanTechpush> That would make so much more sense then
[03:37] <yonkeltron> i am formatting everything
[03:37] <Yono> yep
[03:37] <necco> who here uses Sorune?
[03:37] <nollidj> i do...
[03:37] <unknown_lamer> I do
[03:38] <Llamapalooza> i did a few times
[03:38] <necco> cool. I'm trying to get used to it, but unfortunately I can't get the various artists sorting working right
[03:38] <derobert> I do
[03:38] <necco> lemme link to the thread i made on the sorune forum so i don't have to type it all out
[03:38] <chreekat> yonkeltron: yeah, format is probably necessary.
[03:38] <AmericanTechpush> Working on new website here
[03:38] <Yono> I use sorune
[03:38] <AmericanTechpush> what a pain
[03:38] <Yono> starting today
[03:39] <necco> www.sorune.com
[03:39] <nollidj> i do not really like sorune's gui
[03:39] <nollidj> so i don't really use it
[03:40] <necco> anyway mainly instead of a various artists folder showing up under album->artist, i get folders/whatever for each individual artist on every various artists album i have
[03:40] <nollidj> ah, sorune recently had a change of how it handles compilation albums
[03:40] <necco> from what it looks, it only sorts them properally if you have "Various" as the artist title in comps
[03:41] <sorune> hey everyone
[03:41] <AmericanTechpush> hey
[03:41] <Yono> sorune
[03:41] <Yono> The doesn't work
[03:41] <Yono> take a look at it again
[03:41] <necco> i mean i can still use it but i have like 900 something artists in my album->artist menu heh
[03:42] <nollidj> yeah... regardless, the neuros does not do browsing very well
[03:42] <necco> well, i like the file browser in the beta firmware
[03:42] <necco> if only it read the tags when you select stuff to play
[03:42] <Llamapalooza> it spins up the hard drive a lot though, kills the battery
[03:42] <nollidj> yes. now, if they could do symlinks, i would be in heaven
[03:43] <necco> then there'd be no need for any of the sync progs
[03:43] <nollidj> except for Llamapalooza's point
[03:43] <necco> Hmm... i didn't know about that...
[03:44] <necco> like how much does it kill the battery? faster
[03:44] <necco> how much more. whatever
[03:45] <Llamapalooza> not sure, i havent used it much, someone else whos also using it might know more
[03:45] <necco> Eh, i guess it's not that important
[03:45] <necco> anyway, if sorune had the various artists support that nbdm does, i'd be all set. :/
[03:45] <AmericanTechpush> The lose of the sync mangers is the way of the future
[03:47] <AmericanTechpush> loss
[03:48] <unknown_lamer> If you have a well organized collection
[03:48] <unknown_lamer> or the database is built in the device
[03:49] <sorune> necco: what does ndbm do and how are your files tagged?
[03:50] <necco> ndbm is able to detect which albums are various artists and sorts them as such without physically having the artist name in all the songs be "various"
[03:52] <necco> if there was an option to set a "various folder" and ignore exact tags and basicly sort everything under folder i suppose that would work better
[03:53] <necco> since all my comps are in a "various" folder on my music HD
[03:54] <sorune> are they all tagged with artist == "Various" or artist == "Various Artists" or just the individual artist name?
[03:54] <necco> individual artist name
[03:54] <necco> damned if i know how ndbm figures that out, i'm not a java man. heh
[03:56] <unknown_lamer> Hrm
[03:56] <unknown_lamer> so the neuros firmware source isn't on Odna for now
[03:56] <Yono> Americantechpush: what are you talking about, the pocketplayer loses the sync player already
[03:57] <AmericanTechpush> We are starting out own fourms, and if anybody as any suggestions about the layout please send them my way
[03:57] <sorune> probably by checking for different artist tags in a specific directory
[03:57] <AmericanTechpush> In general yono all the devices need to diump the sysc software
[03:58] <AmericanTechpush> drag an drop
[03:58] <Yono> ok, this is how it will work
[03:58] <Yono> (20:39:42) Yono: how does drag and drop work?
[03:58] <Yono> (20:40:21) MRCo: v1 is no database on the device, just browse by file.
[03:58] <Yono> (20:40:37) MRCo: v2 is a self creating dbase on the device itself.
[03:58] <AmericanTechpush> It got be easy for people who are not computer savy
[03:58] <necco> oh here's how ndbm does it, from their forums:
[03:59] <necco> er
[03:59] <necco> What NDBM does to make a "Various Artist" album is look at the album name. If songs with the same album name, but different artists exist, this album is put uner Various Artist.
[04:00] <AmericanTechpush> Anybody excited about the recorder?
[04:00] <sorune> necco: ah, ok
[04:01] <Llamapalooza> not sure, i cant see what makes it so much better than a regular tv tuner for a pc
[04:01] <necco> hmm i wouldn't think that'd be that hard to do, would probably make sync longer though
[04:03] <sorune> necco: i've made promises that i won't add any new things to 0.5 so that it will finally be released, but i'll put this on the todo list
[04:03] <necco> oh. great :)
[04:03] <necco> when can 0.5 be expected?
[04:04] <sorune> end of next week
[04:04] <noiz> there is a mailing list on sorune.com that you can sign up for and it will notify you when new versions of sorune are released :)
[04:04] <necco> oh. cool
[04:05] <necco> yeah, i've been jumping around different sync managers, figured at work today i'd try sorune and see where it went...
[04:08] <AmericanTechpush> Sourne is my choiice
[04:08] <sorune> wow, i guess it's catching on :)
[04:10] <sorune> i'm told that 0.5 kicks 0.4's butt :)
[04:17] <chreekat> I want to port gcc to our DSP, as some of you know. Just wanted to let you all know I'm still working on that.
[04:17] <sorune> sweet
[04:17] <sorune> then the development will really get rolling
[04:18] <chreekat> Just don't expect results any time soon, since this is my first work with gcc
[04:18] <nollidj> three chreers for chreekat
[04:19] <sorune> here's for hoping gcc will allow us to play high quality Oggs w/o skips
[04:19] <sorune> i've heard the TI compiler isn't very optimized
[04:19] <sorune> not that gcc is great in that regard
[04:19] <sorune> but hopefully it will be better
[04:20] <chreekat> On the plus side, I have loads of time, so I might be able to keep working on optimizations and stuff after it's ported
[04:20] <chreekat> I think gcc could do pretty well
[04:20] <chreekat> Especially since we have very specific tasks in mind for the processor
[04:20] <sorune> that would make me buy a N2, if it didn't skip
[04:20] <AmericanTechpush> cool
[04:21] <chreekat> Anyway, gotta go
[04:21] <nollidj> yeah... sometimes when playing oggs the hard drive thrashes
[04:21] <sorune> ttyl
[04:22] <sorune> do you think it's purely the HD or is it cpu/mem related?
[04:23] <sorune> whatever the case, i hopee the N3 solves it
[04:24] <sorune> or a gcc port or whatever it takes :)
[04:39] <AmericanTechpush> Hi Koron
[05:38] <SmrtJust1n> night all
[23:33] <DeepB> evening
[23:34] <DeepB> anyone here uses last.fm or audioscrobbler?
[23:38] <noiz> im using it right now
[23:39] <noiz> why?
[23:39] <DeepB> when did you signed up?
[23:40] <noiz> today :)
[23:40] <noiz> www.audioscrobbler.com
[23:40] <DeepB> ok, then you're useless ;)
[23:41] <noiz> yeah, i figured i wouldnt be able to help you
[23:41] <DeepB> the crappy thing about AS is that you need to feed up your profile, and that's a lenghty operation
[23:42] <DeepB> you need to submit at least 100-300 songs to start seeing the power of it
[23:42] <DeepB> and that takes time
[23:42] <noiz> yeah, thats why you leave it on overnight
[23:43] <DeepB> so, i coded a quick&dirty python crap, for batch submissions, recursively through a folder
[23:44] <noiz> sounds pretty cool
[23:44] <DeepB> but it is only useful for those registered, at least, the overall length of the submitted folder
[23:45] <DeepB> there are some sanity checks involved, that won't let you submit from dates earlier than the one you've registered
[23:45] <noiz> are you working on the firmware request that one guy had?
[23:47] <DeepB> humm.. yeah, i think some guy asked about AS support a while ago, my answer was NO
[23:47] <noiz> :)
[23:47] <DeepB> because i didn't used it then
[23:48] <DeepB> maybe now i could look into that
[23:48] <noiz> that would be nice, since now i care since i started using it
[23:51] <noiz> and it would be nice to get the neuros on the front page of audioscrobbler ;)
[23:51] <noiz> for being the first portable device to support it
[23:52] <DeepB> the first?
[23:53] <noiz> i think it would be
[23:53] <noiz> i dont know of any other device
[23:57] <noiz> im looking at the site and dont see any mention of players that support audioscrobbler
[23:58] <DeepB> yeah, the AS devs just told me so
[23:59] <noiz> did they tell you what devices?
