Recording Enhancements Pack

[Mmmm]

New build with long press mode to turn off histogram. post#1

[whatboutbob]

Well...whatboutbob You're oing to love this...I haven't done a build yet but the patch in post#1 now contains the ability to switch the histogram off..so you know what that means folks....yep, even bigger fonts!!

Sweet lord...I can't wait to see the digi peak-meters.  I've got gigs over the next 3 nights tho so I dare not update just yet...but I'm so tempted.

As always, thanks Mmmm.

No probs mate!

I'm very tempted to put in bay taper's option...should be quite easy... a separate option for peak meter size...wouldnt that be nice?

and a histogram on/off default option (at the moment it will always start up on).... ooohh...I think my head's going to explode....

[Mmmm]

OH WOW!!

The patch now contains the above enhancements and it is really quite amazing.
You can now set the peakmeter to be up to 8x font height ha ha...

It's great..thanks baytaper for that idea...

Also in the histogram menu, you can set a default for the histogram on/off. You can still toggle the histogram on and off by holding mode too but when you start the recording screen it will always start with your default setting.

Have fun....I am!

Ps. its only the patch for now...I'll put the build up tomorrow with rincewinds patch back in it... Goodnight...

Mmmm, Petur, and all you devs a biiiiiig thanks for all this amazing work on the REP!
WOW!
I'm wondering if the next build will include the Mp3 recording capacity I noticed mentioned in the Recording Forum? I would use that when I'm recording long lectures and might run out of room on my H120 recording in Wav.

Thanks again to you!

And again, the recent changes in CVS have messed up the REP. Unforunately the rejects are too big to be fixed by me.

Can you take a look, thanks a lot.

Alright then...The Patch ONLY is updated in post#1.

Rincewind's button config patch is back.

The only prob now is that the new encoder options have given us an extra line on the display again meaning max font sizes would suffer, so I have got rid of this line and I'm looking at squeezing it into the statusbar like the samplerate. So for now you'll have to fly blind as to which filetype you are encoding into..... Not for long though hopefully

[Mmmm]

Right then...I've finished.......

Took me longer than I thought it would..

Now the peakmeters are calculated better and automatically resize if they won't fit on the screen, each screen will resize seperately so you can have a different sized peakmeter on the remote to the main screen.

Also I have squeezed the bitrate and filetype info into the status bar replacing the redundant volume info (as the volume info is also on the options part of the screen) I'm afraid that mp3 files are displayed as an M with the bitrate next to it..I just couldnt fit Mp3 into the bar.

Any change of font/source/peakmeter size/histogram on/off will recalculate the font sizes so you will always have the right font.....

Phew... can I have a break now?

Patch/build in post#1 as always....

[whatboutbob]

No break for you!

Oh ok...you can get 8 4 hours sleep if you like...

Nice work. Can't wait to test.

Wow, a lot of features added in the past few days for the recording crowd. Impressive response from the developers to include them all in REP.

Thanks a lot to everyone who work so hard to get this hi quality pack out!

[Mmmm]

Seeing as there has been quite a big change in the way it looks, I have put some new screenshots in post#1 just so you can see how ridiculously big those peakmeters can get without installing anything!

Amazing eh?

Great, thanks a lot. I have (re)included the REP into my build http://www.misticriver.net/showthread.php?t=42675

Best wishes

Amazing eh?

Hehehe...I never thought I'd say this...but I don't think I need peakmeters that big...but its sure nice to have the option.

I don't see any screenshots in post #1!

Could someone explain what the three items are that display at the bottom of the recording screen (iriver h120). There's something that looks a bit like a battery which has 23m written in it, then comes a rectangle with 14h in it and then another rectangle that looks like it might be some kind of a gauge. Is this stuff documented somewhere?
Thanks

Patch/build in post#1 as always....

I downloaded your h120 build. Initial boot was fine and I set some of the settings that I wanted, I set the option to show the recording screen on boot. Now I have to consistently use reset because I'm getting a hang before it hits the recording screen. The screen hangs with the rockbox logo on it and the rectangle in the middle of the screen indicating "Recording...". Build indicated as 060829-1630. This is the first time I've ever needed to use reset!

Perhaps this is not the fault of your build, just downloaded and installed from CVS 060830-0137 and it hangs too - never even got past the boot logo! Reverted to a build from May which is not hanging. Installed all the builds the same way - deleted the .rockbox directory and unzipped the build to the root of my h120 - overwriting the rockbox.iriver file in the process.

By the way many thanks to all who have contributed to the REP - made my h120 so much more usable for recording!
