  • Yew + Tauri WASM Desktop App - Methods of Local Filesystem Access
    1 project | /r/rust | 4 Jul 2023
    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).

  • An alternative to FFmpeg?

    There's symphonia for audio, although it's quite low-level. rodio is a better choice if you just want to play some sounds.
  • Introducing the Music Player: A High-Performance, Extensible Application for Digital Audio Playback
    7 projects | dev.to | 17 Jan 2023
    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.

  • Dungeoncrawler audio
    1 project | /r/rust_gamedev | 21 Jun 2022
    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.
  • Modify pitch and volume while a sound file is playing

    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.
  • Streaming Youtube Audio/Video with Rust

    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.
  • Symphonia v0.3: pure-Rust decoders for MP3, WAV, FLAC, AAC
    4 projects | /r/rust | 29 Jun 2021
    Also, you can now use Symphonia as a backend in rodio.
