| 20:11.54 | Crofton | I am certain they would want davinci content |
| 20:12.27 | SpaceMonkey | ace, Ive been talking with ti guys about it for ages, but they are useless and it takes like 5 minutes to set up. |
| 20:12.35 | Crofton | I am just trying to figure out where to start |
| 20:12.39 | Crofton | yeah |
| 20:12.47 | Crofton | we are all familiar with that problem :) |
| 20:13.12 | SpaceMonkey | if we had a server it would take minutes to set up. I am sure I can get some Ti contacts to promote it to their guys. |
| 20:13.26 | Crofton | I think this is the "right" server to use |

| 20:15.21 | Crofton | We must remember Davnici means both the HW and the video SW |

| 20:19.13 | Crofton | any thoughts on where to do this? |

| 20:20.43 | SpaceMonkey | Will there be scope to have a decent forum hosted anywhere? |
| 20:21.06 | Crofton | we can link to the ml archives |
| 20:21.35 | SpaceMonkey | but forums are great :) the ml archives suck a bit |
| 20:21.41 | Crofton | heh |
| 20:21.50 | Crofton | I am old fashioned |

| 20:38.43 | SpaceMonkey | The thing is... will the 19 inch Acer TFT be better than my trusty old SyncMaster 1100p+ |
| 20:42.16 | Crofton | prpplague, is anyone getting any moeny to actually work on the wiki? |

| 21:32.39 | ds2 | so this is not a Linux/Palm app? |
| 21:32.50 | SpaceMonkey | you also get DAB too on it |
| 21:33.07 | SpaceMonkey | no its a Virgin mobile lobster and we got it for £20 $40 outright, no contract, brand new! |
| 21:34.05 | SpaceMonkey | its running windoze mobile |
| 21:36.55 | ds2 | ewwwwwwwwww |
| 21:37.30 | ds2 | it seems no one is really using mobitv |
| 21:37.40 | SpaceMonkey | its dirty, but it works. I tried getting linux on my Tmobile MDA and it kinda sucked |
| 21:38.03 | ds2 | there are the build your own phone projects... |
| 21:38.09 | SpaceMonkey | not yet, but its kinda a free way to transmit it. Im suprised everyone isnt bagging it yet |
| 21:43.35 | SpaceMonkey | because its the FUTURE |
| 21:43.52 | SpaceMonkey | and you have to buy gadgers and open em up if they are cheap |
| 21:43.59 | SpaceMonkey | *gadgets* |
| 21:44.09 | prpplague | only if they are kids toys |
| 21:44.52 | SpaceMonkey | nah everything |
| 21:45.03 | SpaceMonkey | like those new archos' and my neuros OSD |
| 21:45.10 | SpaceMonkey | made for breakage and hackage |
| 21:46.53 | ds2 | so that's why you like the JB ;) |
| 21:47.25 | SpaceMonkey | JB? |
| 21:47.30 | prpplague | ds2: yea |
| 21:47.31 | ds2 | JuiceBox from Mattel |
| 21:47.43 | ds2 | prpplague: have you looked at the video record thing from Tiger? |
| 21:47.56 | ds2 | they were cheap (<$25) and records NTSC onto SD |

| 21:48.24 | prpplague | ds2: url? |
| 21:48.29 | ds2 | let me find it |

| 21:50.05 | prpplague | ahh yea, i did see that |
| 21:50.06 | ds2 | only problem is the files it save are not pure MPEG... I can play the video but not the sound and the frames don't look like proper mpeg frams :( |
| 21:50.22 | prpplague | ds2: someone cracked it open yet? |
| 21:50.30 | ds2 | not completely |
| 21:50.36 | ds2 | mplayer can play the video just fine |
| 21:50.55 | ds2 | and physically opening it reveals A LOT of oops jumpers |
| 21:50.59 | prpplague | i'd like to know what hardware is in there |
| 21:51.04 | ds2 | like it was designed in summer camp ;) |
| 21:51.19 | ds2 | prpplague: what would you like to know? I have one and it isn't exactly being used... |
| 21:51.50 | SpaceMonkey | ds2: you dont happen to have a speak and spell, remember those things?! |
| 21:51.51 | prpplague | ds2: what processor would be the first start |
| 21:52.31 | ds2 | prpplague: I vaguely recall it was a sharp but I didn't check to see if it is the proc or the video encoder |
| 21:52.49 | ds2 | SpaceMonkey: No. :( no money back then for expensive TI toys :( |
| 21:53.07 | SpaceMonkey | E.T. gooo home |
| 21:53.24 | prpplague | ds2: hmm, i'm guess it might be a sharp LH79524 |
| 21:53.27 | ds2 | wasn't Bill Cosby pushing those? |
| 21:53.39 | SpaceMonkey | oh I saw the lamest device the other day, an electronic etch a sketch |
| 21:53.39 | prpplague | ds2: be nice to know |
| 21:53.48 | ds2 | prpplague: when I have time, I can pop it open again |
| 21:53.56 | prpplague | ds2: ok, start a wiki page |
| 21:53.58 | ds2 | I would really really like to be able to read the video stream |
| 21:54.18 | prpplague | if its a sharp arm, you probably can run linux on it |
| 21:54.50 | ds2 | prpplague: any pointers on how to take photos of boards? The flash either floods everything out (too reflective) or I can't focus (too close for even macro)... I could take pix |
| 21:55.12 | ds2 | it isn't the proc I am worried about; it is the encoder chip that I want to confront and squeeze out data from |
| 21:55.16 | prpplague | ds2: hehe, i always use a large magnifying glass |
| 21:55.28 | ds2 | in front of a digital camera? |
| 21:55.31 | prpplague | ds2: yea |
| 21:55.38 | ds2 | I will try that |
| 21:55.43 | prpplague | ds2: other people often use the intel usb microscope |
| 21:56.10 | ds2 | the QX3+ right? that has too much magnification to get an entire board |
| 21:56.50 | prpplague | yep just confirmed it, it has a lh79524 am i good or what |

| 21:57.52 | ds2 | heh... I got mine before christmas and didn't find this forum |
| 21:58.45 | ds2 | i strongly disagree w/the guy's comment about the inside quality |
| 21:58.57 | prpplague | ds2: more than likely it was designed by the same team as the pixter-mm |
| 21:59.06 | prpplague | ds2: the circuit layout looks very familiar |
| 21:59.17 | ds2 | thought the pixter were a competitor? |
| 21:59.23 | ds2 | (to hasbro/tiger) |
| 21:59.57 | prpplague | ds2: most of the companies like hasbro/tiger and mattel/fisher-price buy rebranded designs |
| 22:00.09 | ds2 | OIC |
| 22:00.33 | prpplague | ds2: like for instance, the Juicebox was designed by Emsoft |
| 22:00.47 | ds2 | compared to a juicebox, this board looks like it was made by a factory using 80's technology...wires all over the place, a waxy potting for the wire, etc |
| 22:00.52 | ds2 | the JB I am familar with |
| 22:01.30 | prpplague | ds2: yea, but the big differences is that the tv now can run full linux |
| 22:01.39 | prpplague | ds2: and potentially might be running linux now |
| 22:01.53 | ds2 | heh.. so if someone can locate the jtag pins... |
| 22:01.59 | prpplague | yep |
| 22:02.14 | ds2 | those copper pads on the bottom look very suspicious |
| 22:02.23 | prpplague | openjtag supports arm7 so its just a matter of hooking up the lines |
| 22:02.46 | ds2 | hmmmm so arm7 != arm7 TDMI? |
| 22:03.29 | prpplague | ds2: no the lh7952x is arm720t which has a mmu |
| 22:03.45 | prpplague | ds2: arm7tdmi + muu = arm720t |
| 22:03.56 | ds2 | OHhhhhhhhh so it is a superset |
| 22:04.14 | ds2 | I so need to order the ARM ARM |
| 22:04.48 | ds2 | so this means it is very simpliar to the webpals |
| 22:06.37 | prpplague | yea |
| 22:06.54 | prpplague | ds2: arm arm is good, but the arm sdg is better, imho |
| 22:07.19 | ds2 | I see. which is easier reading if I want to do a cover to cover? |
| 22:07.51 | prpplague | sdg |
| 22:08.04 | prpplague | or atleast in my opinion |
| 22:08.25 | ds2 | going to try to get boss to buy it =) just need to ask at the right time |
| 22:08.27 | prpplague | ds2: big thing i'd like to know now, is what ram and what flash are inside |
| 22:08.48 | ds2 | and it is undersome of those boards (that I remember) |
| 22:09.18 | ds2 | know off hand if the sharp chip has an onboard video encoder or a fast ADC? |
| 22:09.49 | prpplague | has a fast adc, no encoder |
| 22:10.05 | prpplague | hmm, does the device come with a 128mb sd card? |
| 22:10.11 | ds2 | no |
| 22:10.16 | ds2 | comes with a socket for one |
| 22:10.28 | ds2 | but I got the VuGo variant so...) |
| 22:10.30 | prpplague | ok, then, it has atleast 128mb flash |
| 22:10.49 | ds2 | how you figure that? |
| 22:11.10 | prpplague | ds2: according to several pages it has 128mb internal storage |
| 22:11.20 | ds2 | Oh gotcha |
| 22:12.08 | prpplague | my guess is it probably only has 2 or 4mb of ram |
| 22:12.32 | prpplague | it would be just too awesome if it had 8mb |
| 22:12.53 | prpplague | ds2: i assume the tvnow is discontinued |
| 22:13.06 | ds2 | not sure |
| 22:13.13 | ds2 | they were selling it as a VuGu for a while |
| 22:13.32 | ds2 | VuGo |
| 22:14.37 | ds2 | still see listings on amazon |
| 22:14.48 | prpplague | yea? |
| 22:14.53 | ds2 | but not very reasonable prices ($60 and up) |
| 22:15.29 | ds2 | new, under the TV Now brand, for $49.99 |
| 22:15.39 | prpplague | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VuGo |
| 22:17.10 | prpplague | well thats a nice little unit, i'd expect you could boot linux on there in about a weekends worth of work |
| 22:17.28 | ds2 | heh... if you knew what you were doing =) |
| 22:18.30 | prpplague | the lcd is collor right? |
| 22:18.33 | prpplague | color |
| 22:18.33 | ds2 | would be worth doing it if only to get a video recorder; and I think it even has a USB host (if not OTG) |
| 22:18.36 | ds2 | yes, color! |
| 22:18.50 | prpplague | ds2: the lh79524 only has usb slave |
| 22:19.01 | ds2 | oh right, it is for a PC connection... me bad |
| 22:19.06 | prpplague | ds2: the lh79525 has host |
| 22:19.17 | ds2 | hey... this is the ideal Linux digitizing accessory |
| 22:19.46 | prpplague | ds2: you could also run it as a mass storage driver |
| 22:19.53 | prpplague | ds2: 128mb thumb drive |
| 22:20.01 | ds2 | "thumb" heheheh |
| 22:20.12 | ds2 | it would be nice... nicer then a JB |
| 22:20.36 | prpplague | ds2: oh yea |
| 22:20.57 | ds2 | is sharp generous with their datasheets? |
| 22:20.57 | prpplague | ds2: i assume it has an audio codec, so you could place mp3's of course |
| 22:21.02 | prpplague | ds2: yea |
| 22:21.11 | prpplague | ds2: the pixter-mm pages have the info |
| 22:21.20 | ds2 | so no NDAs, limbs, or deposit of reproductive organs require to obtain them? =) |
| 22:21.32 | prpplague | nope |
| 22:21.47 | ds2 | might look at it more after the holidays |
| 22:21.55 | ds2 | s/holidays/longweekend/ |
| 22:22.47 | prpplague | http://wiki.elinux.org/LH79524 |
| 22:24.04 | ds2 | is the ADC fast enough to sample NTSC video (at least 6MHz+ bw) |
| 22:24.19 | prpplague | ds2: probably not |
| 22:24.24 | prpplague | ds2: they probably have a chip |
| 22:24.30 | ds2 | then it must have a hardware encoder elsewhere...sigh |
| 22:24.42 | ds2 | those hardware encoder specs are painful to get |
| 22:25.29 | prpplague | probably not as bad as you think, since its probably a low end chip |
| 22:25.42 | prpplague | ds2: won;t know till you do a chip manifest |
