Zedia#

Zedia is (going to be) a Media player capable of opening: images, audio and video. Kind of like VLC.

The goal of this project is to learn about the audio/video pipeline in Rust as well as practice making native GPUI apps.

Things to try#

• Use CPAL to load and play back an audio file. (X thread)
• Try using gstreamer (X thread)
• Try using libavcodec (ffmpeg) (idk, this maybe? https://github.com/pcwalton/rust-media/blob/master/codecs/libavcodec.rs) (X thread)
• Figure out what "Cuda -> D3D12 textures" means (X thread)
