Symphonia is a pure Rust library for audio decoding, media container demuxing, and metadata/tag reading, supporting formats like FLAC, MP3, AAC, Vorbis, WAV, MP4, OGG, and MKV. It is 100% safe Rust with minimal dependencies, automatic format detection, and gapless playback support.
Use cases
- decode mp3 and flac files in a rust application
- read id3 tags from audio files
- demux audio from mp4 or mkv containers
- build a music player with gapless playback in rust
- convert audio files between formats without ffmpeg
- detect audio format automatically from a byte stream
When to choose
- you need a dependency-free, pure Rust audio decoder with no C libraries
- you want safe Rust code for decoding popular audio codecs
- you need metadata/tag reading alongside decoding
- performance and safety are both priorities
When to avoid
- you need video decoding, not just audio
- you require a C API or WASM build (still planned)
- you need exotic codecs not covered by the supported format list
