- There's definitely potential for more code sharing in these
classes, but deferring for now.
- Also made no-scheme default to file://, and allowed smoothstreaming
URLs to be specified with or without the /Manifest suffix.
This also fixes a technical mistake where HlsChunkSource is fed
seekPositionUs=-1 when obtaining the first chunk. This is wrong,
but the usage of this variable within HlsChunkSource enforces that
the seek must stay within bounds, so we get away with it.
Issue: #385
The spurious transitions were caused by calling pushTrackSelection
in onRenderers after changing the renderer building state to BUILT
and before calling player.prepare. pushTrackSelection can cause the
ExoPlayer to generate state changes, since it can call setPlayWhenReady.
This change transitions the renderer building state later, so that
when this happens getPlaybackState correctly masks the state and
returns STATE_PREPARING.
Play movies has an Allocator that attempts to allocate a single
huge byte[] up front to minimize the risk of GC pauses. This abstraction
will be required to keep that when updating them to the new Exo.
Using a file:// URL for loading an HLS stream (for testing) would fail due to
casting the connection to an HttpURLConnection in DefaultHttpDataSource.
This change makes UriDataSource an interface for objects that are DataSources
with URIs. That allows for reading manifests for HLS using just a UriDataSource
rather than an HttpDataSource (URLs in the playlist are relative to the data
source's URL so the getUri method is needed).
The OMX component needs to be configured with a format that has a
MIME type of audio/raw. Remove Ac3PassthroughAudioTrackRenderer,
which is no longer used.
- Keys should not expire during normal playbacks of correctly configured content.
- Attempting to refresh on expiration causes a race condition, that may result
in either failure or brief re-buffer, for the 30s license test video.
- This change provides deterministic behavior, which is to always fail.
- Added support for ID3 frames of types GEOB and PRIV.
- GEOB type is commonly used by dynamic ads provider to include in the
stream information about the ads to be played.
- PRIV type is commonly used for time synchronization (example:
synchronizing playback of a live stream and its webvtt captions) and
also by analytics companies to include tracking information in the
stream.
- Added a sample stream from Apple that contains ID3 metadata.
