# oximedia-codec

Video and audio codec implementations for the OxiMedia multimedia framework. Pure-Rust, royalty-free codecs with image I/O support.
Part of the [oximedia](https://github.com/cool-japan/oximedia) workspace — a comprehensive pure-Rust media processing framework.
## Overview
`oximedia-codec` provides encoding and decoding for royalty-free video codecs plus image I/O:
| AV1 | Complete | `av1` (default) |
| VP9 | Complete | `vp9` |
| VP8 | Complete | `vp8` |
| Theora | Complete | `theora` |
| Opus | Complete | `opus` |
| PNG | Yes | `image-io` (default) |
| JPEG | Yes | `image-io` (default) |
| WebP | Yes | `image-io` (default) |
## Usage
Add to your `Cargo.toml`:
```toml
[dependencies]
oximedia-codec = "0.1.1"
# or with additional codecs:
oximedia-codec = { version = "0.1.1", features = ["av1", "vp9", "vp8", "opus"] }
```
### AV1 Decoding
```rust
use oximedia_codec::{VideoDecoder, Av1Decoder};
let mut decoder = Av1Decoder::new(&codec_params)?;
decoder.send_packet(&packet)?;
while let Some(frame) = decoder.receive_frame()? {
// Process decoded frame
}
```
### VP9 Decoding
```rust
use oximedia_codec::Vp9Decoder;
let mut decoder = Vp9Decoder::new(&codec_params)?;
decoder.send_packet(&packet)?;
while let Some(frame) = decoder.receive_frame()? {
// Process decoded frame
}
```
### VP8 Decoding
```rust
use oximedia_codec::Vp8Decoder;
let mut decoder = Vp8Decoder::new()?;
let frame = decoder.decode(&packet_data)?;
```
### Opus Decoding
```rust
use oximedia_codec::opus::OpusDecoder;
let mut decoder = OpusDecoder::new(48000, 2)?;
let audio_frame = decoder.decode_packet(&packet_data)?;
```
## Architecture
### Unified Traits
All codecs implement unified traits:
```rust
pub trait VideoDecoder {
fn send_packet(&mut self, packet: &EncodedPacket) -> CodecResult<()>;
fn receive_frame(&mut self) -> CodecResult<Option<VideoFrame>>;
fn flush(&mut self) -> CodecResult<()>;
}
pub trait VideoEncoder {
fn send_frame(&mut self, frame: &VideoFrame) -> CodecResult<()>;
fn receive_packet(&mut self) -> CodecResult<Option<EncodedPacket>>;
fn flush(&mut self) -> CodecResult<Vec<EncodedPacket>>;
}
```
### Rate Control Modes
| CQP | Constant QP — fixed quantization |
| CRF | Constant Rate Factor — perceptual quality |
| CBR | Constant Bitrate — fixed bitrate target |
| VBR | Variable Bitrate — quality with bitrate limits |
### SIMD Support
The codec includes a SIMD abstraction layer:
- Scalar fallback (always available)
- SSE/AVX support (x86/x64)
- NEON support (ARM)

## Patent Policy
All codecs are royalty-free:
**Supported codecs**: AV1, VP9, VP8, Theora, Opus
**Rejected codecs**: H.264, H.265, AAC, AC-3, DTS
When a patent-encumbered codec is detected in a container, a `PatentViolation` error is returned.
## Policy
