# Symphonium

An unofficial easy-to-use wrapper around [Symphonia](https://github.com/pdeljanov/Symphonia) for loading audio files. It also handles resampling at load-time.
The resulting `DecodedAudio` resources are stored in their native sample format whenever possible to save on memory, and have convenience methods to fill a buffer with `f32` samples from any arbitrary position in the resource in realtime during playback. Alternatively you can use the `DecodedAudioF32` resource if you only need samples in the `f32` format.
## Example
```rust
/// A struct used to load audio files.
let mut loader = SymphoniumLoader::new();
/// Load an audio file.
let audio_data = loader
.load(
// The path to the audio file.
file_path,
// The target sample rate. If this differs from the
// file's sample rate, then it will be resampled.
// If you wish to never resample, set this to `None`.
Some(sample_rate),
// The quality of the resampling algorithm. Normal
// is recommended for most applications.
ResampleQuality::Normal,
// The maximum size a file can be in bytes before an
// error is returned. This is to protect against
// out of memory errors when loading really long
// audio files. Set to `None` to use the default of
// 1 GB.
None
)
.unwrap();
/// Fill a stereo buffer with samples starting at frame 100.
let mut buf_l = vec![0.0f32; 512];
let mut buf_r = vec![0.0f32; 512];
audio_data.fill_stereo(100, &mut buf_l, &mut buf_r);
/// Alternatively, if you don't need to save memory, you can
/// load directly to an `f32` format.
let audio_data_f32 = loader
.load_f32(
file_path,
Some(sample_rate),
ResampleQuality::Normal,
None
)
.unwrap();
/// Print info about the data (`data` is a `Vec<Vec<f32>>`).
println!("num channels: {}" audio_data_f32.data.len());
println!("num frames: {}" audio_data_f32.data[0].len());
```
## Features
By default, only `wav` and `ogg` support is enabled. If you need more formats, enable them as features in your `Cargo.toml` file like this:
`symphonium = { version = "0.2", features = ["mp3", "flac"] }`
Available codecs:
* `aac`
* `adpcm`
* `alac`
* `flac`
* `mp1`
* `mp2`
* `mp3`
* `pcm`
* `vorbis`
Available container formats:
* `caf`
* `isomp4`
* `mkv`
* `ogg`
* `aiff`
* `wav`
Alternatively you can enable the `all` feature if you want everything, or the `open-standards` feature if you want all of the royalty-free open-source standards.
