amp-mate-rs VS rodio

Rotel still allows this, at least on models a few years old. I have a RA-1572 amplifier, and it's a joy to work with. Plug a serial or a network cable, and start talking to it. It supports the same commands over RS232 or TCP (basic TCP, not HTTP or what have you – just don't open too many connections too often, or it will choke). They also support IR IN / OUT, but I've never attempted to work with those. I seem to remember that the IR codes were documented somewhere, but I can't remember where I've seen that (I've never needed them).

The protocol is documented here: https://www.rotel.com/manuals-resources/rs232-protocols. The TCP commands are the same as the RS232 commands, the docs say on which port it listens, etc.

I've started building a "remote control" to an amp to be used from an I3 bar: https://github.com/vladvasiliu/amp-mate-rs (older Python version which doesn't do much: https://github.com/vladvasiliu/amp_mate).

I'm currently working on creating a desktop app with web UI using Yew (wasm32-unknown-unknown), and Tauri for the desktop packaging side of things. In this particular case, I'd like to be able to play audio files from the user's local filesystem using the rodio crate, and also to process text files for purposes such as configuration, for example by using the csv crate. I know for absolute certain that the app will only be run in a desktop context, i.e, Windows, Linux and MacOS, and therefore will always have a filesystem physically existent despite any WASM sandboxing (which I'm aware of, hence asking for any possible methods).

There's symphonia for audio, although it's quite low-level. rodio is a better choice if you just want to play some sounds.

The Music Player is based on Rodio, which is a high-performance audio playback library for Rust, and Symphonia, which is a Rust library for working with music metadata and audio decoding. This allows the Music Player to provide high-quality audio playback and management.

https://crates.io/crates/rodio Its based on cpal and has basic necessities like resampler.

I believe rodio is generally regarded as a good spot to start for audio in Rust. Open Game Art has a fair few tilesets, you could take a look there.

I have tried the https://crates.io/crates/rodio crate already but I did not find a way to change the parameters while the background thread is playing the song.

I changed into mp3 cuz I didn't know how to use rodio to play other file format like m4a, because it needed symphonia and I could'nt find any example of symphonia on the internet.

Also, you can now use Symphonia as a backend in rodio.
