Motivation

Currently, dizi uses rodio for audio playback. While this works great for fast development, it lacks certain features that I would like to add to dizi.
Most notably:

  • Audio formats are limited
  • Symphonia backend can't detect duration of audio file
  • Can't seek audio
  • API produces busy waiting when audio is paused
    • API is a bit hard to use in general

Migrating to cpal + symphonia should allow us to address all of these issues.
However, this will be significantly more complicated because we have to manage audio streams, packets, sampling, etc. in-house.
