Some Player implementations have no playlist capability but can still set a MediaItem for playback. Examples are a MediaController connected to a legacy MediaSession, ExoPlayer up to 2.12 or MediaPlayer. To indicate this capability, we need an allowed command in addition to COMMAND_CHANGE_MEDIA_ITEMS that just allows to set a single item that replaces everything that is currently played. #minor-release PiperOrigin-RevId: 453879626 (cherry picked from commit 5333c67d08ec22a1b5153af152b456d36099f401)
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.
