# opus-rs
A pure-Rust implementation of the [Opus audio codec](https://opus-codec.org/) (RFC 6716), ported from the reference C implementation (libopus 1.6).
> **Production-ready**
## Features
- **Pure Rust** — no C dependencies
- **High Performance:** At or faster than C libopus across all configurations on X64/AARCH64
## Quick Start
```rust
use opus_rs::{OpusEncoder, OpusDecoder, Application};
// Encode
let mut encoder = OpusEncoder::new(16000, 1, Application::Voip).unwrap();
encoder.bitrate_bps = 16000;
encoder.use_cbr = true;
let input = vec![0.0f32; 320]; // 20ms frame at 16kHz
let mut output = vec![0u8; 256];
let bytes = encoder.encode(&input, 320, &mut output).unwrap();
// Decode
let mut decoder = OpusDecoder::new(16000, 1).unwrap();
let mut pcm = vec![0.0f32; 320];
let samples = decoder.decode(&output[..bytes], 320, &mut pcm).unwrap();
```
### WAV Roundtrip
```bash
# Rust encoder/decoder
cargo run --example wav_test
```
## Performance
Criterion benchmarks with 20 samples, real audio (902/1804 frames of real speech), mono encode + decode. All numbers are wall-clock time for the full frame set.
### vs C Opus (libopus 1.6.1) on x86-64 (AVX2/FMA)
Measured on AMD Ryzen 7 5700X, compiled with `--release` (opt-level=3 + ThinLTO).
| 8 kHz / 20 ms VoIP | **39.9 ms** | 40.6 ms | 0.98× (**Rust 2% faster**) |
| 16 kHz / 20 ms VoIP | **66.8 ms** | 67.1 ms | 1.00× (**Rust 0.5% faster**) |
| 16 kHz / 10 ms VoIP | 73.2 ms | **72.5 ms** | 1.01× (within noise) |
| 48 kHz / 20 ms Audio | **25.1 ms** | 28.4 ms | 0.88× (**Rust 12% faster**) |
| 48 kHz / 10 ms Audio | **29.7 ms** | 31.2 ms | 0.95× (**Rust 5% faster**) |
### vs C Opus (libopus 1.6.1) on Apple Silicon
Measured on Apple Silicon M-series (aarch64), compiled with `--release` (opt-level=3 + ThinLTO).
| 8 kHz / 20 ms VoIP | **33.06 ms** | 34.26 ms | 0.96× (**Rust 4% faster**) |
| 16 kHz / 20 ms VoIP | **55.62 ms** | 56.11 ms | 0.99× (**Rust 1% faster**) |
| 16 kHz / 10 ms VoIP | 63.28 ms | **62.50 ms** | 1.01× (C 1% faster) |
| 48 kHz / 20 ms Audio | **22.40 ms** | 30.46 ms | 0.74× (**Rust 26% faster**) |
| 48 kHz / 10 ms Audio | **25.25 ms** | 31.57 ms | 0.80× (**Rust 20% faster**) |
