00:13 bendk willkg: you still here?
00:14 willkg yes.
00:14 just put the baby to bed.
00:14 bendk I've got this all figured out except now we're back to an earlier issue
00:14 the search text entry should emit "activate" when the clear button is pressed right?
00:14 not "validate"
00:14 willkg i don't know.
00:14 bendk okay
00:14 well, emitting "validate" seems to make it work
00:15 I'll make a ticket to straighten things up in the future
00:15 willkg pretty sure i talked with you the last time i fiddled with things.  so it's better to look at the related checkin comments and bugs.
00:15 i'm pretty sure i had a hell of a time getting it to work on all three platforms the correct way.
00:16 mmm.. i think it was 12748: http://bugzilla.pculture.org/s[…]_bug.cgi?id=12748
00:16 https://git.participatorycultu[…]ommit/?id=a94bcb2
00:16 looks like i originally did it with validate.
00:16 bendk okay, let's keep with that for 4.0 and figure out things better for 4.1
00:17 willkg i'm confused.  it looks like it uses validate right now.  are you saying you think it's using activate?
00:17 bendk nope
00:18 I'm saying that we should be using activate (at least the way I think of the signals)
00:18 but for now, I'll just keep using validate
00:19 willkg i'm not sure i'm following this conversation.
00:19 bendk I'll make a ticket and try to explain better
00:19 willkg ok.
00:19 it's ok to not explain, too.
00:21 bendk wow, screw NSSearchField
00:21 so I have things working mostly, except now there's a new issue.  If I delete all the text, then click anywhere, the cancel button dissapears
00:22 in that case there's no way for the user to clear the search
00:22 willkg man...  i just did a search for "validate" in my xchat history and we have virtually this same conversation over and over and over again.
00:22 it's pretty funny.
00:22 bendk I think I'm just going to leave that one in
00:22 willkg we never really figure out what validate was supposed to be for, but it seems to work, so we leave it as is.
00:23 bendk sounds how I remember it :)
00:23 going downstairs to make dinner, I'll think if this new bug is fixable
00:23 willkg the most recent iteration is february 11, 2011.
00:23 good luck with both of those!
00:24 bendk: ping me if you want a copy of the irc conversation where you explain validate to me.

15:18 paroneayea paulproteus: when I take showers, I also get a lot of good ideas.  I've been thinking of getting a shower timer so I waste less water, but then maybe I'll also waste ideas
15:19 willkg paroneayea: that's exactly my problem!
15:21 paulproteus willkg: You and I talked about Al Jazeera a few weeks ago, iirc. (-:
15:21 * paulproteus is suddenly reminded of it.
15:22 willkg yeah!  though i don't remember why.
15:22 what's my name again?
15:23 paulproteus aah!
16:39 willkg afk a smidge...  then i'll post the dev call notes.

17:22 paulproteus deardiary: I am awake again!
17:23 willkg deardiary: going to spend some time testing external drives on all three platforms.
17:27 bendk: i attached an external drive, start miro in a clean-slate environment, told miro to look at all attached devices, and i think it's importing stuff, but honestly, there's no activity in the ui and no indication it's found anything.
17:27 bendk: this is the drive where i've got like 3000 media items or so.
17:28 bendk: if i flip between the Video and Music tab for the drive, then the progress indicator goes away and doesn't seem to come back.
17:29 bendk: so...  i guess my point is that it looks busted and doesn't seem to be working.  want me to write up a bug?
17:29 z3p: ^^^
17:30 z3p, bendk: i'm using the latest in git master.
17:30 z3p willkg: on master, it should be showing something; I just checked in a fix for that during the call
17:30 willkg z3p: i have two blank tabs.
17:31 z3p: er, for both the Video and Music tabs, i click on them and they show no items in the display.
17:31 z3p: mmm...  seems like it's stuck on the scanning side of things.
17:31 z3p willkg: :(
17:32 willkg i'll fiddle with this some more and write up a bug.
17:32 z3p it might just be slow...
17:32 idle (handling backend message: <miro.messages.TrackItems object at 0x95e93d0>) too slow (73.272 secs)
17:33 which is absurd
17:33 willkg possibly...  i'm going on 1 minute now and seeing nothing in the logs denoting activity.
17:34 2 minutes.
17:34 no drive activity that i can see, either.
17:39 z3p, bendk: i'm writing up a bug now.
17:45 z3p:  it's bug 17146.  ping me if you need more information and if i'm not online, call me.
17:48 z3p willkg: my guess is that this is coming from fetch_all()
17:54 willkg ugh.  i have to build a new external drive to test on osx and windows because my main one is probably ext3 or ext4.
18:06 z3p willkg: you should re-try w/ master aka 9ef9b19
18:07 willkg: it won't be 100% better (I think I'll need to add an ItemInfoCache for devices), but it shouldn't be constantly re-running mutagen
18:10 bendk left #miro-hackers
18:11 bendk joined #miro-hackers
18:12 willkg z3p: i'll do that after i get a fat32 test drive built.
18:13 z3p: i can spend some time pseudo-git-bisecting the issue, too, if you want.
18:13 this is way more interesting than tracking down why there are orphaned ffmpeg process floating around in miro on windows.
18:15 z3p willkg: sure, if you'd like
18:16 willkg ok.  i'll spend some more time figuring out what's going on.  i'll grab the bug now.

19:26 willkg i'm puzzled.  it's not working with absolute paths for some reason.  <obligatory>but it works fine on my machine.</obligatory>
19:27 there.  works now.  must have been a problem with the previous version.
19:27 sorry that took so long.  what a total fucking pain in the ass.
19:27 whoops--wrong line.
19:28 that's what i get for trying to figure out multiple things for multiple contexts.  bah.
19:28 all of this applies to the external drive stuff, too.  sort of.
19:28 z3p: so....  external drives work fine on osx, but totally fail on linux and windows.
19:28 z3p willkg: wait, linux
19:28 willkg z3p: and honestly, that smells like directory watching to me.
19:29 z3p willkg: devices don't use the directory watching stuff, AFAIK
19:29 willkg well, so much for that theory.
19:30 z3p willkg: I was using an external drive earlier today on linux; it's really not working at all for you?
19:30 willkg totally not working.  just like i said in the bug.
19:30 i can reproduce it every time with those steps.
19:30 and it's the same problem on windows, too.
19:31 z3p willkg: do you have a lot of non-media files on that drive?
19:31 willkg nope.
19:32 honestly, it looks like nothing is going on.  that log shows a huge gap of nothing logged.
19:32 z3p it looks like something is keeping the device scan from running
19:32 willkg er, well, so i have two drives.
19:32 z3p because it's still going when you quit
19:32 willkg the one i tested windows with is a new drive with just media on it.
19:33 z3p and there's a big gap between when we get 'scan is too slow' messages
19:33 willkg the one i tested linux with is the external drive i've been using for the last few months which has a ton of stuff on it.
19:33 z3p willkg: okay, that makes sense
19:33 willkg really?  it never used to behave this way.
19:34 z3p willkg: bdk refactored it, and now it doesn't work the way it used to
19:34 willkg: I think the solution is to go back to the old way
19:34 willkg yeah, i don't remember it being this bad after he refactored it, either.
19:34 but i thought he refactored the watched folder stuff--not the external device stuff.
19:35 z3p willkg: try it before/after http://git.participatorycultur[…]adc97995e32020a6c
19:36 willkg: I'm heading out for gym/practice, but I'll check in later
19:36 willkg ok.

20:23 Are you going to get working on it soon, do you think? If not, maybe I should push forward on it, and I can assign you to something else useful later.
20:23 e.g. your API dreams, which honestly sound totally great.

21:39 willkg glee: please don't work on 13530.
21:39 glee: that's adding work to 4.0 that we don't need to be doing.  best to leave it until 4.1.
21:45 kcw, glee, z3p, zanoi: the goal is to push out a beta for friday.  so we should be testing, fixing P1 critical issues, and working on stability-related things.  none of us should be tackling additional features or other things that aren't P1 for 4.0 without talking about it first.  that includes bumping things up from lower P* levels.
21:45 zanoi sounds good
21:46 willkg the goal is minimizing the work we're doing and maximizing the miro quality for friday.
21:46 i mention it because glee just bumped a bug up from P2.  figured i'd clarify the plan.
21:47 z3p: did i give you enough information for that external drive problem?  i have a few more things i can test if you want me to.
21:47 z3p: if not, i can go git bisect miro on windows to figure out when external drives stopped working there.
21:55 CarlFK left #miro-hackers
22:02 willkg afk for dinner.
22:03 z3p: i'll catch up with you later.  feel free to toss either of the external drive bugs my way for more analysis.
