This avoids that these settings have to be resolved inline, potentially blocking the main thread. They can be resolved at the time of track selection on a background thread instead. As a side effect, we can also remove the context parameter from the Builder. Having the Context in the Builder is also a bad sign in the first place because it implies the potentially blocking calls can happen. PiperOrigin-RevId: 720523139
Cast module
This module provides a Player implementation that controls a Cast receiver app.
Getting the module
The easiest way to get the module is to add it as a gradle dependency:
implementation 'androidx.media3:media3-cast:1.X.X'
where 1.X.X
is the version, which must match the version of the other media
modules being used.
Alternatively, you can clone this GitHub project and depend on the module locally. Instructions for doing this can be found in the top level README.
Using the module
Create a CastPlayer
and use it to control a Cast receiver app. Since
CastPlayer
implements the Player
interface, it can be passed to all media
components that accept a Player
, including the UI components provided by the
UI module.
