Last year we missed DevCon oportunity, it would be a pitty not to meet
You again this year. I'd like to offer hosting of DevCon in Warsaw
Poland. If You find it interesting we should start thinking about
suitable date. Looking forward for feedback.
Count me in! (if date works out)

Reminder:
Looks like Rockbox DevCon will be helt 14-15 september in Gent, Belgium.
Please mark your presence if you intend to come and if you want to use
the hotel

Well, they probably could benefit from different mappings, especially in

There are three rocker buttons, making three different events each, so
nine, plus one play/pause and a stop button, if I recall correctly (I

I would like to get some feedback for FS#11534 as I got no single comment on FS.
Currently the step when changing gain/vol settings in recscreen is

My proposal is to involve our users here, and to do the following:

- We provide a feedback template that helps people figure out what needs

I have read the summary of what was decided at the recently concluded

I have uploaded it temporarily at

I believe petur was looking at re-doing the mp3, since the one he
posted earlier has sound coming from only the left channel - which is
a bit odd.
yeah, well, I'm a bit overloaded (and tired) as well, so the odd one is
still up there. I'll have a look later on.

to ask advice about the implementation.

The MK8007GAH is no longer produced. The currently available drive is
the MK8009GAH and this is, as Linus said, currently not supported by
rockbox on any other platform than the IPod 5, because of the 1kb
block size.

-The recording screen doesn't speak. It also ought to have some sort of

I like the firefox about:config setting screen as well and I think
rockbox would benefit from something similer.

IMHO this is even worse than having simple/advanced settings.

I'm unable to spend time on this issue, maybe one of you can check it out?
The problem seems to be that when using the option that rockbox boots into
the recording screen, there is no audio monitoring possible until you leave
and re-enter the recording screen.

Linus,
the uda1380.h changes may be irrelevant to make it work,
but it makes the file more complete.
Also, one set of bits was defined under the wrong register.
It doesn't prevent it working, but it's very confusing because
looking at the header file makes you think the code is writing
the wrong
Magnus,
In the yield() implementation I've added a mechanism that
alternates between Sleep(0) and Sleep(1). This is because
Sleep(1) makes the app run too slow (no audio), and Sleep(0)
hogs the CPU (but gives sound).
I wrote it so that it calls Sleep(1) every 256 calls to
yield.
Just added a brightness setting for the H300 LCD
