Streaming audio from url
Are you trying to play audio from something like an internet radio station where the stream has an infinite length? The content length header is optional. It uses that to support seeking within the file. Symphonia, one of the underlying backends for Rodio, has an option to tell the decoder that the source is not seekable if the size of the file is not known. Unfortunately, Rodio currently hardcodes this setting to true https://github.com/RustAudio/rodio/blob/master/src/decoder/read_seek_source.rs#L19. I actually wrote this code a few years ago so I should know this, but I can't remember why exactly. I think there was no easy way to communicate this information to Rodio since the other backends don't have a setting like this. The other Rodio backends may handle this differently. There's a lot of great info in this discussion on the Symphonia repo about this use case which helped me with my implementation: https://github.com/pdeljanov/Symphonia/discussions/153

Any libraries for Decoding AND Encoding to Opus audio codec?
Everything I can find on the internet seems to be abandoned. Opus-rs, Magnum, Magnum Opus, ect. Symphonia has been working on it for over 2 years, with work still ongoing. Heck, even FFMPEG seems to not have full support yet!. Is there any library that I have overlooked that provides this functionality?

Announcing zune-jpeg: Rust's fastest JPEG decoder
In other areas, miniz_oxide is faster than miniz, Symphonia is faster than ffmpeg on most codecs, the not-yet-announced zune-png beats both libpng and the more heavily optimized libspng, and the png crate is getting considerable improvements too and also beats libpng.
