Simple rust app to analyse songs with bliss-rs. The output of this is a SQLite database containing song metadata and bliss analysis. This is then intended to be used by Bliss Mixer

Building

This application can be built in 4 variants:

Using libavcodec, etc, to decode files.
Using libavcodec, etc, to decode files, but statically linked to libavcodec, etc.
Using symphonia to decode files.

libavcodec is the fastest (~15% faster than symphonia), but might have issues with library, versioning, etc., unless these libraries are statically linked in. libavcodec statically linked may reduce supported file formats, but is more portable. file formats, but is more portable.

symphonia also produces a more portable application, is only slightly slower to decode files, but has more limited codec support, and can fail on more files.

Build for 'libavcodec' library usage

clang, pkg-config, and ffmpeg are required to build, as well as Rust

To install dependencies on a Debian system:

apt install -y clang libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libavutil-dev libavfilter-dev libavdevice-dev pkg-config yasm

To install dependencies on a Fedora system:

dnf install ffmpeg-devel clang pkg-config

Build with cargo build --release --features=libav

If building on a Raspberry Pi, then rpi also needs to be passed to --features, e.g. cargo build --release --features=libav,rpi

The resultant application will be less portable, due to dependencies on libavcodec libraries (and their dependencies).

Build for 'libavcodec' library usage, statically linked

clang, pkg-config, and ffmpeg are required to build, as well as Rust

To install dependencies on a Debian system:

apt install -y clang libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libavutil-dev libavfilter-dev libavdevice-dev pkg-config yasm

To install dependencies on a Fedora system:

dnf install ffmpeg-devel clang pkg-config

Build with cargo build --release --features=libav,staticlibav

If building on a Raspberry Pi, then rpi also needs to be passed to --features, e.g. cargo build --release --features=libav,staticlibav,rpi

Build for 'symphonia'

clang, and pkg-config are required to build, as well as Rust

To install dependencies on a Debian system:

apt install -y clang pkg-config

To install dependencies on a Fedora system:

dnf install clang pkg-config

Build with cargo build --release --features=symphonia
