[Ifp-driver-common] ifp-880

[marco <ma...@ma...>]

Hi All,

I tried using my IFP-880 with version 0.2.4.3 and ifp.c
(1.33)/ifp_routines.c (1.42) from CVS, but unfortunately
it still doesn't work for me. I can ls/mkdir/rmdir but
uploading files just doesn't work (except for the first).
It copies some data but then afterwards when I try to play
the files I get:

NOT SUPPORTED OGG FORMAT

i.e. they are corrupted. Only the first file uploads OK,
and the files after that seem to load OK but they are not
OK :) It doesn't matter if I upload a directory or one
file at a time. I had to go to the 0.2.5 version by Joe
Roback ( http://roback.cc/ ) and that works for me although
I had to use the tricks I detailed here:

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_id=18786&max_rows=25&style=flat&viewmonth=200405&viewday=26

To recap, every other file has problems uploading, so I
have to do the following ugly hack to upload a dummy file
every other time:

for i in *.ogg
do
echo $i
sleep 3
ifp upload $i /rock/$i
sleep 10
ifp rm /rock/dummy.ogg
sleep 5
ifp upload dummy.ogg /rock/dummy.ogg
sleep 10
ifp rm /rock/dummy.ogg
sleep 2
ifp ls /rock/dummy.ogg
sleep 2
ifp rm /rock/dummy.ogg
done

Note that when I upload the good files the transfer is quick.
The dummy file stutters, and I get the following in my log file:

Jul 16 23:57:31 hostname kernel: usbdevfs: USBDEVFS_BULK failed dev 11 ep 0x3 len 4096 ret -110
Jul 16 23:57:32 hostname kernel: usb_control/bulk_msg: timeouta
Jul 16 23:57:32 hostname kernel: usbdevfs: USBDEVFS_BULK failed dev 11 ep 0x3 len 4096 ret -110
Jul 16 23:57:33 hostname kernel: usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout
Jul 16 23:57:33 hostname kernel: usbdevfs: USBDEVFS_BULK failed dev 11 ep 0x3 len 4096 ret -110
Jul 16 23:57:34 hostname kernel: usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout
.
.
.

The above trick does not work with 0.2.4.3.

Nonetheless I can eventually upload all my files in one
go. Oh, BTW, uploading files with a ":" in the name e.g.
01:file.ogg doesn't seem to work either (at all, no matter
what).

PS. To be on the safe side, I use "oggenc -q 4". I'm also
using:

This does not seem to cause any problems.

Cheers!
