olly 355b3d6334 Increase minSdkVersion to 16
The combination of pre-16 API levels accounting for ~0.5% of the device
population, and that the most important components in ExoPlayer (e.g.
the MediaCodec renderers) have always required API level 16, mean it's
very unlikely this will negatively impact on anyone.

ExoPlayer Cast extension

Description

The cast extension is a Player implementation that controls playback on a Cast receiver app.

Getting the extension

The easiest way to use the extension is to add it as a gradle dependency:

implementation 'com.google.android.exoplayer:extension-cast:2.X.X'

where 2.X.X is the version, which must match the version of the ExoPlayer library being used.

Alternatively, you can clone the ExoPlayer repository and depend on the module locally. Instructions for doing this can be found in ExoPlayer's top level README.

Using the extension

Create a CastPlayer and use it to integrate Cast into your app using ExoPlayer's common Player interface.
