Recording Enhancements Pack
Mmmm:
So after all that it's nothing to do with the REP at all.... cor I don't know  ::)
:D
I suppose Id better update to get that fix in....
Edit: update in post#1
jhMikeS:
Never mind about it. Allergies, cold medicine and programming don't mix. ::) My bit counting was off that day and I couldn't tell bit 22 from bit 20 so after all that it's still in the air and nothing actually changed. Regardless, the few reports of problems these days seem to come from digital sources so after all that...
BTW, what should your REP have to do with the pcm driver and DMA1?
NorTheBear:
Hello everybody,
I have to confess that the Recording Enhancements Pack seduced me some time ago to move constantly from iRiver firmware to Rockbox. The feature set of the recording section is really amazing, though most crucial for me was when I was able to control the gain while recording on my beloved H320.
Well, there is one little thing that might be so minor an improvement that nobody else might ever have thought about it but hell, I was think of it whenever I missed a nice recording because of me pressing the wrong key and realising only when it's already too late. I am sure some of you know what I mean.
Thus I am daring to bring in the idea of colorized peak meters as another record indicator which is visually easy to spot (in addition to the other helpful indicators like file size increasing and the small icons on the top of tehe screen (for me too small):
Colorized peak meters, e.g.
black = no recording at the moment ||||||||||||
red = recording is running at the moment |||||||||||||||||
yellow = recoding is on hold (i.e. recording is interrupted) |||||||
I would have coded and patched it myself if only were able to do it ...
See manipulated dump screens and see what I am talking about.
Thank you for your kind consideration.
Enjoy your life and your favorite music, NortheBear

I seriously doubt that the REP would have anything to do with it as it is mostly to do with display rather than the real nitty gritty stuff. The only potential problem is that all that histogram info may be too much for the unboosted CPU but I'm pretty sure it is ok.....

Ahh, Very nice....Unfortunately I have a lowly H140 which has no colour, so for me this wouldn't bring any joy...
You could always learn to code and patch it.... :)

As I've mentioned, the CPU is always boosted during digital recording or should be and since the only reports seem to be coming from S/PDIF users, there could be a problem in the boost being turned off perhaps? I didn't spot any boost fiddling in the patch but I could have missed it. Nonetheless I'll keep pushing myself to find an answer to any lingering issues and probably test recording with the debugging screen I made up with and without patch to see if it changes the behavior.
