# Release notes
### Unreleased changes
* Common Library:
* Remove `@DoNotInline` annotations from manually out-of-lined inner
classes designed to avoid
[runtime class verification failures](https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/HEAD/build/android/docs/class_verification_failures.md).
Recent versions of [R8](https://developer.android.com/build/shrink-code)
now automatically out-of-line calls like these to avoid the runtime
failures (so the manual out-of-lining is no longer required). All Gradle
users of the library must already be a using a version of the Android
Gradle Plugin that uses a version of R8 which does this,
[due to `compileSdk = 35`](https://issuetracker.google.com/345472586#comment7).
Users of the library with non-Gradle build systems will need to ensure
their R8-equivalent shrinking/obfuscating step does a similar automatic
out-of-lining process in order to avoid runtime class verification
failures. This change has
[already been done in other AndroidX libraries](http://r.android.com/3156141).
* ExoPlayer:
* Fix `MediaCodec.CryptoException` sometimes being reported as an
"unexpected runtime error" when `MediaCodec` is operated in asynchronous
mode (default behaviour on API 31+).
* Deprecated `MediaCodecUtil.getCodecProfileAndLevel`. Use
`androidx.media3.common.util.CodecSpecificDataUtil.getCodecProfileAndLevel`
instead.
* Pass `bufferedDurationUs` instead of `bufferedPositionUs` with
`PreloadMediaSource.PreloadControl.onContinueLoadingRequested()`. Also
changes `DefaultPreloadManager.Status.STAGE_LOADED_TO_POSITION_MS` to
`DefaultPreloadManager.Status.STAGE_LOADED_FOR_DURATION_MS`, apps then
need to pass a value representing a specific duration from the default
start position for which the corresponding media source has to be
preloaded with this IntDef, instead of a position.
* Add `ForwardingRenderer` implementation that forwards all method calls
to another renderer
([1703](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/1703)).
* Add playlist preloading for the next item in the playlist. Apps can
enable preloading by calling
`ExoPlayer.setPreloadConfiguration(PreloadConfiguration)` accordingly.
By default preloading is disabled. When opted-in and to not interfer
with playback, `DefaultLoadControl` restricts preloading to start and
continue only when the player is not loading for playback. Apps can
change this behaviour by implementing
`LoadControl.shouldContinuePreloading()` accordingly (like when
overriding this method in `DefaultLoadControl`). The default
implementation of `LoadControl` disables preloading in case an app is
using a custom implementation of `LoadControl`.
* Add method `MediaSourceEventListener.EventDispatcher.dispatchEvent()` to
allow invoking events of subclass listeners
([1736](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/1736)).
* Transformer:
* Make setting the image duration using
`MediaItem.Builder.setImageDurationMs` mandatory for image export.
* Add export support for gaps in sequences of audio EditedMediaItems.
* Track Selection:
* Extractors:
* Fix preroll sample handling for non-keyframe media start positions when
processing edit lists in MP4 files
([#1659](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/1659)).
* Improved frame rate calculation by using media duration from the `mdhd`
box in `Mp4Extractor` and `FragmentedMp4Extractor`
([#1531](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1531)).
* DataSource:
* Audio:
* Fix pop sounds that may occur during seeks.
* Fix truncation error accumulation for Sonic's
time-stretching/pitch-shifting algorithm.
* Video:
* Add workaround for a device issue on Galaxy Tab S7 FE that causes 60fps
secure H264 streams to be marked as unsupported
([#1619](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1619)).
* Add workaround for codecs that get stuck after the last sample without
returning an end-of-stream signal.
* Text:
* Metadata:
* Assign the `C.TRACK_TYPE_METADATA` type to tracks containing icy or
vnd.dvb.ait content.
* Image:
* DataSource:
* DRM:
* Fix `IllegalStateException` from
`DefaultDrmSession.requiresSecureDecoder` after opening a DRM session
failed. This issue was introduced in `1.5.0-alpha01`.
* Effect:
* Muxers:
* IMA extension:
* Fix bug where server-side inserted DAI streams without a preroll can
result in an `ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException` when playing past the last
midroll ([#1741](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1741)).
* Session:
* Fix bug that caused custom commands sent from a `MediaBrowser` being
dispatched to the `MediaSessionCompat.Callback` instead of the
`MediaBrowserServiceCompat` variant of the method when connected to a
legacy service. This prevented the `MediaBrowser` to receive the actual
return value sent back by the legacy service
([#1474](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1474)).
* Handle `IllegalArgumentException` thrown by devices of certain
manufacturers when setting the broadcast receiver for media button
intents ([#1730](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1730)).
* Add command buttons for media items. This adds the Media3 API for what
was known as `Custom browse actions` with the legacy library with
`MediaBrowserCompat`. Note that with Media3 command buttons for media
items are available for both, `MediaBrowser` and `MediaController`. See
Custom
Browse actions of AAOS.
* Fix bug where a Media3 controller was sometimes unable to let a session
app start a foreground service after requesting `play()`.
* Restrict `CommandButton.Builder.setIconUri` to only accept content Uris.
* UI:
* Make the stretched/cropped video in
`PlayerView`-in-Compose-`AndroidView` workaround opt-in, due to issues
with XML-based shared transitions. Apps using `PlayerView` inside
`AndroidView` need to call
`PlayerView.setEnableComposeSurfaceSyncWorkaround` in order to opt-in
([#1237](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1237),
[#1594](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1594)).
* Add `setFullscreenButtonState` to `PlayerView` to allow updates of
fullscreen button's icon on demand, i.e. out-of-band and not reactively
to a click interaction
([#1590](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1590),
[#184](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/184)).
* Fix bug where the "None" choice in the text selection is not working if
there are app-defined text track selection preferences.
* Downloads:
* OkHttp Extension:
* Cronet Extension:
* RTMP Extension:
* HLS Extension:
* DASH Extension:
* Smooth Streaming Extension:
* Fix a `Bad magic number for Bundle` error when playing SmoothStreaming
streams with text tracks
([#1779](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1779)).
* RTSP Extension:
* Fix user info removal for URLs that contain encoded @ characters
([#1138](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/1138)).
* Decoder Extensions (FFmpeg, VP9, AV1, etc.):
* MIDI extension:
* Leanback extension:
* Cast Extension:
* Stop cleaning the timeline after the CastSession disconnects, which
enables the sender app to resume playback locally after a disconnection.
* Populate CastPlayer's `DeviceInfo` when a `Context` is provided. This
enables linking the `MediaSession` to a `RoutingSession`, which is
necessary for integrating Output Switcher
([#1056](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1056)).
* Test Utilities:
* Demo app:
* Remove deprecated symbols:
## 1.5
### 1.5.0-alpha01 (2024-09-06)
This release includes the following changes since the
[1.4.1 release](#141-2024-08-23):
* Common Library:
* Add `ForwardingSimpleBasePlayer` that allows forwarding to another
player with small adjustments while ensuring full consistency and
listener handling
([#1183](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1183)).
* Replace `SimpleBasePlayer.State.playlist` by `getPlaylist()` method.
* Add override for `SimpleBasePlayer.State.Builder.setPlaylist()` to
directly specify a `Timeline` and current `Tracks` and `Metadata`
instead of building a playlist structure.
* Increase `minSdk` to 21 (Android Lollipop). This is aligned with all
other AndroidX libraries.
* Add `androidx.media3:media3-common-ktx` artifact which provides
Kotlin-specific functionality built on top of the Common library
* Add `Player.listen` suspending extension function to spin a coroutine to
listen to `Player.Events` to the `media3-common-ktx` library.
* ExoPlayer:
* `MediaCodecRenderer.onProcessedStreamChange()` can now be called for
every media item. Previously it was not called for the first one. Use
`MediaCodecRenderer.experimentalEnableProcessedStreamChangedAtStart()`
to enable this.
* Add `PreloadMediaSource.PreloadControl.onPreloadError` to allow
`PreloadMediaSource.PreloadControl` implementations to take actions when
error occurs.
* Add `BasePreloadManager.Listener` to propagate preload events to apps.
* Allow changing SNTP client timeout and retry alternative addresses on
timeout ([#1540](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1540)).
* Remove `MediaCodecAdapter.Configuration.flags` as the field was always
zero.
* Allow the user to select the built-in speaker for playback on Wear OS
API 35+ (where the device advertises support for this).
* Defer the blocking call to
`Context.getSystemService(Context.AUDIO_SERVICE)` until audio focus
handling is enabled. This ensures the blocking call isn't done if audio
focus handling is not enabled
([#1616](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/1616)).
* Allow playback regardless of buffered duration when loading fails
([#1571](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1571)).
* Add `AnalyticsListener.onRendererReadyChanged()` to signal when
individual renderers allow playback to be ready.
* Transformer:
* Add `SurfaceAssetLoader`, which supports queueing video data to
Transformer via a `Surface`.
* `ImageAssetLoader` reports unsupported input via `AssetLoader.onError`
instead of throwing an `IllegalStateException`.
* Extractors:
* Allow `Mp4Extractor` and `FragmentedMp4Extractor` to identify H264
samples that are not used as reference by subsequent samples.
* Add option to enable index-based seeking in `AmrExtractor`.
* Treat MP3 files with more than 128kB between valid frames as truncated
(instead of invalid). This means files with non-MP3 data at the end,
with no other metadata to indicate the length of the MP3 bytes, now stop
playback at the end of the MP3 data instead of failing with
`ParserException: Searched too many bytes.{contentIsMalformed=true,
dataType=1}` ([#1563](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1563)).
* DataSource:
* Update `HttpEngineDataSource` to allow use starting at version S
extension 7 instead of API level 34
([#1262](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1262)).
* Audio:
* Automatically configure CTA-2075 loudness metadata on the codec if
present in the media.
* Ensure smooth volume ramp down when seeking.
* Video:
* `MediaCodecVideoRenderer` avoids decoding samples that are neither
rendered nor used as reference by other samples.
* On API 35 and above, `MediaCodecAdapter` may now receive a `null`
`Surface` in `configure` and calls to a new method `detachOutputSurface`
to remove a previously set `Surface` if the codec supports this
(`MediaCodecInfo.detachedSurfaceSupported`).
* Use `MediaCodecAdapter` supplied pixel aspect ratio values if provided
when processing `onOutputFormatChanged`
([#1371](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/1371)).
* Text:
* Add a custom `VoiceSpan` and populate it for
[WebVTT voice spans](https://www.w3.org/TR/webvtt1/#webvtt-cue-voice-span)
([#1632](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1632)).
* Image:
* Add `ExternallyLoadedImageDecoder` for simplified integration with
external image loading libraries like Glide or Coil.
* DataSource:
* Add `FileDescriptorDataSource`, a new `DataSource` that can be used to
read from a `FileDescriptor`
([#3757](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/3757)).
* Effect:
* Add `DefaultVideoFrameProcessor` workaround for minor `SurfaceTexture`
scaling. `SurfaceTexture` may include a small scaling that cuts off a
1-texel border around the edge of a cropped buffer. This is now handled
such that output is closer to expected.
* Speed up `DefaultVideoFrameProcessor.queueInputBitmap()`. As a result,
exporting images to videos with `Transformer` is faster.
* IMA extension:
* Fix bug where clearing the playlist may cause an
`ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException` in
`ImaServerSideAdInsertionMediaSource`.
* Session:
* Add `MediaButtonReceiver.shouldStartForegroundService(Intent)` to allow
apps to suppress a play command coming in for playback resumption by
overriding this method. By default, the service is always started and
playback can't be suppressed without the system crashing the service
with a `ForegroundServiceDidNotStartInTimeException`
([#1528](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/1528)).
* DASH Extension:
* Add support for periods starting in the middle of a segment
([#1440](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1440)).
* Decoder Extensions (FFmpeg, VP9, AV1, etc.):
* Add the IAMF decoder module, which provides support for playback of MP4
files containing IAMF tracks using the libiamf native library to
synthesize audio.
* Playback is enabled with a stereo layout as well as 5.1 with
spatialization together with optional head tracking enabled, but
binaural playback support is currently not available.
* Test Utilities:
* `DataSourceContractTest` now includes tests to verify:
* Input stream `read position` is updated.
* Output buffer `offset` is applied correctly.
* Remove deprecated symbols:
* Remove deprecated `Player.hasPrevious`, `Player.hasPreviousWindow()`.
Use `Player.hasPreviousMediaItem()` instead.
* Remove deprecated `Player.previous()`method. Use
`Player.seekToPreviousMediaItem()` instead.
* Remove deprecated `DrmSessionEventListener.onDrmSessionAcquired` method.
## 1.4
### 1.4.1 (2024-08-23)
This release includes the following changes since the
[1.4.0 release](#140-2024-07-24):
* ExoPlayer:
* Handle preload callbacks asynchronously in `PreloadMediaSource`
([#1568](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1568)).
* Allow playback regardless of buffered duration when loading fails
([#1571](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1571)).
* Extractors:
* MP3: Fix `Searched too many bytes` error by correctly ignoring trailing
non-MP3 data based on the length field in an `Info` frame
([#1480](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1480)).
* Text:
* TTML: Fix handling of percentage `tts:fontSize` values to ensure they
are correctly inherited from parent nodes with percentage `tts:fontSize`
values.
* Fix `IndexOutOfBoundsException` in `LegacySubtitleUtil` due to
incorrectly handling the case of the requested output start time being
greater than or equal to the final event time in the `Subtitle`
([#1516](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1516)).
* DRM:
* Fix `android.media.MediaCodec$CryptoException: Operation not supported
in this configuration: ERROR_DRM_CANNOT_HANDLE` error on API 31+ devices
playing L1 Widevine content. This error is caused by an incomplete
implementation of the framework
[`MediaDrm.requiresSecureDecoder`](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/media/MediaDrm#requiresSecureDecoder\(java.lang.String\))
method ([#1603](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1603)).
* Effect:
* Add a `release()` method to `GlObjectsProvider`.
* Session:
* Transform a double-tap of `KEYCODE_HEADSETHOOK` into a 'seek to next'
action, as
[documented](https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/session/MediaSession#media-key-events-mapping)
([#1493](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1493)).
* Handle `KEYCODE_HEADSETHOOK` as a 'play' command in
`MediaButtonReceiver` when deciding whether to ignore it to avoid a
`ForegroundServiceDidNotStartInTimeException`
([#1581](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1581)).
* RTSP Extension:
* Skip invalid Media Descriptions in SDP parsing
([#1087](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1472)).
### 1.4.0 (2024-07-24)
This release includes the following changes since the
[1.3.1 release](#131-2024-04-11):
* Common Library:
* Forward presumed no-op seek calls to the protected `BasePlayer.seekTo()`
and `SimpleBasePlayer.handleSeek()` methods instead of ignoring them. If
you are implementing these methods in a custom player, you may need to
handle these additional calls with `mediaItemIndex == C.INDEX_UNSET`.
* Remove compile dependency on enhanced Java 8 desugaring
([#1312](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1312)).
* Ensure the duration passed to `MediaItem.Builder.setImageDurationMs()`
is ignored for a non-image `MediaItem` (as documented).
* Add `Format.customData` to store app-provided custom information about
`Format` instances.
* ExoPlayer:
* Add `BasePreloadManager` which coordinates the preloading for multiple
sources based on the priorities defined by their `rankingData`.
Customization is possible by extending this class. Add
`DefaultPreloadManager` which uses `PreloadMediaSource` to preload media
samples of the sources into memory, and uses an integer `rankingData`
that indicates the index of an item on the UI.
* Add `PlayerId` to most methods of `LoadControl` to enable `LoadControl`
implementations to support multiple players.
* Remove `Buffer.isDecodeOnly()` and `C.BUFFER_FLAG_DECODE_ONLY`. There is
no need to set this flag as renderers and decoders will decide to skip
buffers based on timestamp. Custom `Renderer` implementations should
check if the buffer time is at least
`BaseRenderer.getLastResetPositionUs()` to decide whether a sample
should be shown. Custom `SimpleDecoder` implementations can check
`isAtLeastOutputStartTimeUs()` if needed or mark other buffers with
`DecoderOutputBuffer.shouldBeSkipped` to skip them.
* Allow a null value to be returned by
`TargetPreloadStatusControl.getTargetPreloadStatus(T)` to indicate not
to preload a `MediaSource` with the given `rankingData`.
* Add `remove(MediaSource)` to `BasePreloadManager`.
* Add `reset()` to `BasePreloadManager` to release all the holding sources
while keep the preload manager instance.
* Add `ExoPlayer.setPriority()` (and `Builder.setPriority()`) to define
the priority value used in `PriorityTaskManager` and for MediaCodec
importance from API 35.
* Fix issue with updating the last rebuffer time which resulted in
incorrect `bs` (buffer starvation) key in CMCD
([#1124](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1124)).
* Add
`PreloadMediaSource.PreloadControl.onLoadedToTheEndOfSource(PreloadMediaSource)`
to indicate that the source has loaded to the end. This allows the
`DefaultPreloadManager` and the custom
`PreloadMediaSource.PreloadControl` implementations to preload the next
source or take other actions.
* Fix bug where silence skipping at the end of items can trigger a
playback exception.
* Add `clear` to `PreloadMediaSource` to discard the preloading period.
* Add new error code
`PlaybackException.ERROR_CODE_DECODING_RESOURCES_RECLAIMED` that is used
when codec resources are reclaimed for higher priority tasks.
* Let `AdsMediaSource` load preroll ads before initial content media
preparation completes
([#1358](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1358)).
* Fix bug where playback moved to `STATE_ENDED` when re-preparing a
multi-period DASH live stream after the original period was already
removed from the manifest.
* Rename `onTimelineRefreshed()` to `onSourcePrepared()` and
`onPrepared()` to `onTracksSelected()` in
`PreloadMediaSource.PreloadControl`. Also rename the IntDefs in
`DefaultPreloadManager.Stage` accordingly.
* Add experimental support for dynamic scheduling to better align work
with CPU wake-cycles and delay waking up to when renderers can progress.
You can enable this using `experimentalSetDynamicSchedulingEnabled()`
when setting up your ExoPlayer instance.
* Add `Renderer.getDurationToProgressUs()`. A `Renderer` can implement
this method to return to ExoPlayer the duration that playback must
advance for the renderer to progress. If `ExoPlayer` is set with
`experimentalSetDynamicSchedulingEnabled()` then `ExoPlayer` will call
this method when calculating the time to schedule its work task.
* Add `MediaCodecAdapter#OnBufferAvailableListener` to alert when input
and output buffers are available for use by `MediaCodecRenderer`.
`MediaCodecRenderer` will signal `ExoPlayer` when receiving these
callbacks and if `ExoPlayer` is set with
`experimentalSetDynamicSchedulingEnabled()`, then `ExoPlayer` will
schedule its work loop as renderers can make progress.
* Use data class for `LoadControl` methods instead of individual
parameters.
* Add `ExoPlayer.isReleased()` to check whether `Exoplayer.release()` has
been called.
* Add `ExoPlayer.Builder.setMaxSeekToPreviousPositionMs()` to configure
the maximum position for which `seekToPrevious()` seeks to the previous
item ([#1425](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1425)).
* Fix some audio focus inconsistencies, e.g. not reporting full or
transient focus loss while the player is paused
([#1436](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1436)).
* Fix potential `IndexOutOfBoundsException` caused by extractors reporting
additional tracks after the initial preparation step
([#1476](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1476)).
* `Effects` in `ExoPlayer.setVideoEffect()` will receive the timestamps
with the renderer offset removed
([#1098](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1098)).
* Fix potential `IllegalArgumentException` when handling player error that
happened while reading ahead into another playlist item
([#1483](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1483)).
* Transformer:
* Add `audioConversionProcess` and `videoConversionProcess` to
`ExportResult` indicating how the respective track in the output file
was made.
* Relax trim optimization H.264 level checks.
* Add support for changing between SDR and HDR input media in a sequence.
* Add support for composition-level audio effects.
* Add support for transcoding Ultra HDR images into HDR videos.
* Fix issue where the `DefaultAudioMixer` does not output the correct
amount of bytes after being reset and reused.
* Work around a decoder bug where the number of audio channels was capped
at stereo when handling PCM input.
* When selecting tracks in `ExoPlayerAssetLoader`, ignore audio channel
count constraints as they only apply for playback.
* Replace `androidx.media3.transformer.Muxer` interface with
`androidx.media3.muxer.Muxer` and remove
`androidx.media3.transformer.Muxer`.
* Fix HEIC image loading from content URI schemes.
([#1373](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1373)).
* Adjust audio track duration in `AudioGraphInput` to improve AV sync.
* Remove `ExportResult.processedInputs` field. If you use this field for
codec details, then use `DefaultDecoderFactory.listener` instead. In
case of a codec exception, codec details will be available in the
`ExportException.codecInfo`.
* Extractors:
* MPEG-TS: Roll forward the change ensuring the last frame is rendered by
passing the last access unit of a stream to the sample queue
([#7909](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/7909)).
Incorporating fixes to resolve the issues that emerged in I-frame only
HLS streams([#1150](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1150)) and
H.262 HLS streams
([#1126](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1126)).
* MP3: Prefer the data size from an `Info` frame over the size reported by
the underlying stream (e.g. file size, or HTTP `Content-Length` header).
This helps to exclude non-playable trailer data (e.g. album artwork)
from constant bitrate seeking calculations, making seeks more accurate
([#1376](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1376)).
* MP3: Use the frame count and other data in an `Info` frame (if present)
to compute an average bitrate for constant bitrate seeking, rather than
extrapolating from the bitrate of the frame after the `Info` frame,
which may be artificially small, e.g. `PCUT` frame
([#1376](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1376)).
* Fix PCM audio format extraction in AVI containers.
* Audio:
* Fix DTS:X Profile 2 encoding attributes for passthrough playback
([#1299](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/1299)).
* For offloaded playback, reset the tracking field for stream completion
in `DefaultAudioSink` prior to calling `AudioTrack.stop()` so that
`AudioTrack.StreamEventCallback#onPresentationEnded` correctly
identifies when all pending data has been played.
* Fix bug in `SilenceSkippingAudioProcessor` where transitions between
different audio formats (for example stereo to mono) can cause the
processor to throw an exception
([#1352](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1352)).
* Implement `MediaCodecAudioRenderer.getDurationToProgressUs()` so that
ExoPlayer will dynamically schedule its main work loop to when the
MediaCodecAudioRenderer can make progress.
* Video:
* Fix issue where `Listener.onRenderedFirstFrame()` arrives too early when
switching surfaces mid-playback.
* Fix decoder fallback logic for Dolby Vision to use a compatible AV1
decoder if needed
([#1389](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/1389)).
* Fix codec exception that may be caused by enabling a video renderer
mid-playback.
* Text:
* Fix issue where subtitles starting before a seek position are skipped.
This issue was only introduced in Media3 1.4.0-alpha01.
* Change default subtitle parsing behavior so it happens during extraction
instead of during rendering (see
[ExoPlayer's architecture diagram](https://developer.android.com/media/media3/exoplayer/glossary#exoplayer)
for the difference between extraction and rendering).
* This change can be overridden by calling **both**
`MediaSource.Factory.experimentalParseSubtitlesDuringExtraction(false)`
and `TextRenderer.experimentalSetLegacyDecodingEnabled(true)`. See
the
[docs on customization](https://developer.android.com/media/media3/exoplayer/customization)
for how to plumb these components into an `ExoPlayer` instance.
These methods (and all support for legacy subtitle decoding) will be
removed in a future release.
* Apps with custom `SubtitleDecoder` implementations need to update
them to implement `SubtitleParser` instead (and
`SubtitleParser.Factory` instead of `SubtitleDecoderFactory`).
* PGS: Fix run-length decoding to resolve `0` as a color index, instead of
a literal color value
([#1367](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/1367)).
* CEA-708: Ignore `rowLock` value. The CEA-708-E S-2023 spec states that
`rowLock` and `columnLock` should both be assumed to be true, regardless
of the values present in the stream (`columnLock` support is not
implemented, so it's effectively assumed to always be false).
* This was originally included in the `1.3.0-alpha01` release notes,
but the change was accidentally reverted before the `1.3.0-rc01`
release. This is now fixed, so the change is present again.
* CEA-708: Avoid duplicate newlines being added by ExoPlayer's naive
handling of the 'set pen location' command
([#1315](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/1315)).
* Fix an `IllegalArgumentException` from `LegacySubtitleUtil` when a
WebVTT subtitle sample contains no cues, e.g. as part of a DASH stream
([#1516](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1516)).
* Metadata:
* Fix mapping of MP4 to ID3 sort tags. Previously the 'album sort'
(`soal`), 'artist sort' (`soar`) and 'album artist sort' (`soaa`) MP4
tags were wrongly mapped to the `TSO2`, `TSOA` and `TSOP` ID3 tags
([#1302](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1302)).
* Fix reading of MP4 (/iTunes) numeric `gnre` (genre) and `tmpo` (tempo)
tags when the value is more than one byte long.
* Propagate ID3 `TCON` frame to `MediaMetadata.genre`
([#1305](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1305)).
* Image:
* Add support for non-square DASH thumbnail grids
([#1300](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/1300)).
* Add support for AVIF for API 34+.
* Allow `null` as parameter for `ExoPlayer.setImageOutput()` to clear a
previously set `ImageOutput`.
* DataSource:
* Implement support for `android.resource://package/id` raw resource URIs
where `package` is different to the package of the current application.
This wasn't previously documented to work, but is a more efficient way
of accessing resources in another package than by name.
* Eagerly check `url` is non-null in the `DataSpec` constructors. This
parameter was already annotated to be non-null.
* Allow `ByteArrayDataSource` to resolve a URI to a byte array during
`open()`, instead of being hard-coded at construction
([#1405](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1405)).
* DRM:
* Allow setting a `LoadErrorHandlingPolicy` on
`DefaultDrmSessionManagerProvider`
([#1271](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1271)).
* Effect:
* Support multiple speed changes within the same `EditedMediaItem` or
`Composition` in `SpeedChangeEffect`.
* Support for HLG and PQ output from ultra HDR bitmap input.
* Add support for EGL_GL_COLORSPACE_BT2020_HLG_EXT, which improves HLG
surface output in ExoPlayer.setVideoEffect and Transformer's Debug
SurfaceView.
* Update Overlay matrix implementation to make it consistent with the
documentation by flipping the x and y values applied in
`setOverlayFrameAnchor()`. If using
`OverlaySettings.Builder.setOverlayFrameAnchor()`, flip their x and y
values by multiplying them by `-1`.
* Fix bug where `TimestampWrapper` crashes when used with
`ExoPlayer#setVideoEffects`
([#821](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/821)).
* Change default SDR color working space from linear colors to electrical
BT 709 SDR video. Also provide third option to retain the original
colorspace.
* Allow defining indeterminate z-order of EditedMediaItemSequences
([#1055](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/1055)).
* Maintain a consistent luminance range across different pieces of HDR
content (uses the HLG range).
* Add support for Ultra HDR (bitmap) overlays on HDR content.
* Allow `SeparableConvolution` effects to be used before API 26.
* Remove unused `OverlaySettings.useHdr` since dynamic range of overlay
and frame must match.
* Add HDR support for `TextOverlay`. Luminance of the text overlay can be
adjusted with `OverlaySettings.Builder.setHdrLuminanceMultiplier()`.
* IMA extension:
* Promote API that is required for apps to play
[DAI ad streams](https://developers.google.com/ad-manager/dynamic-ad-insertion/full-service)
to stable.
* Add `replaceAdTagParameters(Map )` to
`ImaServerSideAdInsertionMediaSource.AdLoader` that allows replacing ad
tag parameters at runtime.
* Fix bug where `VideoAdPlayer.VideoAdPlayerCallback.onError()` was not
called when a player error happened during ad playback
([#1334](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1334)).
* Bump IMA SDK version to 3.33.0 to fix a `NullPointerException` when
using `data://` ad tag URIs
([#700](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/700)).
* Session:
* Change default of `CommandButton.enabled` to `true` and ensure the value
can stay false for controllers even if the associated command is
available.
* Add icon constants for `CommandButton` that should be used instead of
custom icon resources.
* Add `MediaSessionService.isPlaybackOngoing()` to let apps query whether
the service needs to be stopped in `onTaskRemoved()`
([#1219](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1219)).
* Add `MediaSessionService.pauseAllPlayersAndStopSelf()` that conveniently
allows to pause playback of all sessions and call `stopSelf()` to
terminate the lifecycle of the `MediaSessionService`.
* Override `MediaSessionService.onTaskRemoved(Intent)` to provide a safe
default implementation that keeps the service running in the foreground
if playback is ongoing or stops the service otherwise.
* Hide seekbar in the media notification for live streams by not setting
the duration into the platform session metadata
([#1256](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1256)).
* Align conversion of `MediaMetadata` to `MediaDescriptionCompat`, to use
the same preferred order and logic when selecting metadata properties as
in media1.
* Add `MediaSession.sendError()` that allows sending non-fatal errors to
Media3 controller. When using the notification controller (see
`MediaSession.getMediaNotificationControllerInfo()`), the custom error
is used to update the `PlaybackState` of the platform session to an
error state with the given error information
([#543](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/543)).
* Add `MediaSession.Callback.onPlayerInteractionFinished()` to inform
sessions when a series of player interactions from a specific controller
finished.
* Add `SessionError` and use it in `SessionResult` and `LibraryResult`
instead of the error code to provide more information about the error
and how to resolve the error if possible.
* Publish the code for the media3 controller test app that can be used to
test interactions with apps publishing a media session.
* Propagate extras passed to media3's
`MediaSession[Builder].setSessionExtras()` to a media1 controller's
`PlaybackStateCompat.getExtras()`.
* Map fatal and non-fatal errors to and from the platform session. A
`PlaybackException` is mapped to a fatal error state of the
`PlaybackStateCompat`. A `SessionError` sent to the media notification
controller with `MediaSession.sendError(ControllerInfo, SessionError)`
is mapped to a non-fatal error in `PlaybackStateCompat` which means that
error code and message are set but the state of the platform session
remains different to `STATE_ERROR`.
* Allow the session activity to be set per controller to override the
global session activity. The session activity can be defined for a
controller at connection time by creating a `ConnectionResult` with
`AcceptedResultBuilder.setSessionActivivty(PendingIntent)`. Once
connected, the session activity can be updated with
`MediaSession.setSessionActivity(ControllerInfo, PendingIntent)`.
* Improve error replication of calls to `MediaLibrarySession.Callback`.
Error replication can now be configured by using
`MediaLibrarySession.Builder.setLibraryErrorReplicationMode()` for
choosing the error type or opt-ing out of error replication which is on
by default.
* UI:
* Add image display support to `PlayerView` when connected to an
`ExoPlayer` ([#1144](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1144)).
* Add customization of various icons in `PlayerControlView` through xml
attributes to allow different drawables per `PlayerView` instance,
rather than global overrides
([#1200](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1200)).
* Work around a platform bug causing stretched/cropped video when using
`SurfaceView` inside a Compose `AndroidView` on API 34
([#1237](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1237)).
* Downloads:
* Ensure that `DownloadHelper` does not leak unreleased `Renderer`
instances, which can eventually result in an app crashing with
`IllegalStateException: Too many receivers, total of 1000, registered
for pid` ([#1224](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1224)).
* Cronet Extension:
* Fix `SocketTimeoutException` in `CronetDataSource`. In some versions of
Cronet, the request provided by the callback is not always the same.
This leads to callback not completing and request timing out
(https://issuetracker.google.com/328442628).
* HLS Extension:
* Fix bug where pending EMSG samples waiting for a discontinuity were
delegated in `HlsSampleStreamWrapper` with an incorrect offset causing
an `IndexOutOfBoundsException` or an `IllegalArgumentException`
([#1002](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1002)).
* Fix bug where non-primary playlists keep reloading for LL-HLS streams
([#1240](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1240)).
* Fix bug where enabling CMCD for HLS with initialization segments
resulted in `Source Error` and `IllegalArgumentException`.
* Fix bug where non-primary playing playlists are not refreshed during
live playback ([#1240](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1240)).
* Fix bug where enabling CMCD for HLS live streams causes
`ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException`
([#1395](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1395)).
* DASH Extension:
* Fix bug where re-preparing a multi-period live stream can throw an
`IndexOutOfBoundsException`
([#1329](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1329)).
* Add support for `dashif:Laurl` license urls
([#1345](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1345)).
* Cast Extension:
* Fix bug that converted the album title of the `MediaQueueItem` to the
artist in the Media3 media item
([#1255](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/1255)).
* Test Utilities:
* Implement `onInit()` and `onRelease()` in `FakeRenderer`.
* Change `TestPlayerRunHelper.runUntil()/playUntil()` methods to fail on
nonfatal errors (e.g. those reported to
`AnalyticsListener.onVideoCodecError()`). Use the new
`TestPlayerRunHelper.run(player).ignoringNonFatalErrors().untilXXX()`
method chain to disable this behavior.
* Demo app:
* Use `DefaultPreloadManager` in the short form demo app.
* Allow setting repeat mode with `Intent` arguments from command line
([#1266](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/1266)).
* Use `HttpEngineDataSource` as the `HttpDataSource` when supported by the
device.
* Remove deprecated symbols:
* Remove `CronetDataSourceFactory`. Use `CronetDataSource.Factory`
instead.
* Remove some `DataSpec` constructors. Use `DataSpec.Builder` instead.
* Remove `setContentTypePredicate(Predicate)` method from
`DefaultHttpDataSource`, `OkHttpDataSource` and `CronetDataSource`. Use
the equivalent method on each `XXXDataSource.Factory` instead.
* Remove `OkHttpDataSource` constructors and `OkHttpDataSourceFactory`.
Use `OkHttpDataSource.Factory` instead.
* Remove `PlayerMessage.setHandler(Handler)`. Use `setLooper(Looper)`
instead.
* Remove `Timeline.Window.isLive` field. Use the `isLive()` method
instead.
* Remove `DefaultHttpDataSource` constructors. Use
`DefaultHttpDataSource.Factory` instead.
* Remove `DashMediaSource.DEFAULT_LIVE_PRESENTATION_DELAY_MS`. Use
`DashMediaSource.DEFAULT_FALLBACK_TARGET_LIVE_OFFSET_MS` instead.
* Remove `MediaCodecInfo.isSeamlessAdaptationSupported(Format, Format,
boolean)`. Use `MediaCodecInfo.canReuseCodec(Format, Format)` instead.
* Remove `DrmSessionManager.DUMMY` and `getDummyDrmSessionManager()`
method. Use `DrmSessionManager.DRM_UNSUPPORTED` instead.
* Remove `AnalyticsListener.onAudioInputFormatChanged(EventTime, Format)`,
`AnalyticsListener.onVideoInputFormatChanged(EventTime, Format)`,
`AudioRendererEventListener.onAudioInputFormatChanged(Format)`,
`VideoRendererEventListener.onVideoInputFormatChanged(Format)`. Use the
overloads that take a `DecoderReuseEvaluation` instead.
* Remove `RendererSupport.FormatSupport` IntDef and `FORMAT_HANDLED`,
`FORMAT_EXCEEDS_CAPABILITIES`, `FORMAT_UNSUPPORTED_DRM`,
`FORMAT_UNSUPPORTED_SUBTYPE`, `FORMAT_UNSUPPORTED_TYPE` constants. Use
the equivalent IntDef and constants in `androidx.media3.common.C`
instead (e.g. `C.FORMAT_HANDLED`).
* Remove `Bundleable` interface. This includes removing all
`Bundleable.Creator CREATOR` constant fields. Callers should use
the `Bundle toBundle()` and `static Foo fromBundle(Bundle)` methods on
each type instead.

## 1.3
### 1.3.1 (2024-04-11)
This release includes the following changes since the
[1.3.0 release](#130-2024-03-06):
* Common Library:
* Add `Format.labels` to allow localized or other alternative labels.
* ExoPlayer:
* Fix issue where `PreloadMediaPeriod` cannot retain the streams when it
is preloaded again.
* Apply the correct corresponding `TrackSelectionResult` to the playing
period in track reselection.
* Start early-enabled renderers only after advancing the playing period
when transitioning between media items
([#1017](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1017)).
* Add missing return type to proguard `-keepclasseswithmembers` rule for
`DefaultVideoFrameProcessor.Factory.Builder.build()`
([#1187](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1187)).
* Transformer:
* Add workaround for exception thrown due to `MediaMuxer` not supporting
negative presentation timestamps before API 30.
* Track Selection:
* `DefaultTrackSelector`: Prefer video tracks with a 'reasonable' frame
rate (>=10fps) over those with a lower or unset frame rate. This ensures
the player selects the 'real' video track in MP4s extracted from motion
photos that can contain two HEVC tracks where one has a higher
resolution but a very small number of frames
([#1051](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1051)).
* Extractors:
* Fix issue where padding was not skipped when reading odd-sized chunks
from WAV files ([#1117](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/1117)).
* MP3: Populate `Format.averageBitrate` from metadata frames such as
`XING` and `VBRI`.
* MPEG-TS: Revert a change that aimed to ensure the last frame is rendered
by passing the last access unit of a stream to the sample queue
([#7909](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/7909)). This is due
to the change causing new problems with I-frame only HLS streams
([#1150](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1150)) and H.262 HLS
streams ([#1126](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1126)).
* Audio:
* Allow renderer recovery by disabling offload if audio track fails to
initialize in offload mode.
* For offloaded playback, use the `AudioTrack.StreamEventCallback` method
`onPresentationEnded` to identify when all pending data has been played.
* Video:
* Add workaround for a device issue on Galaxy Tab S7 FE, Chromecast with
Google TV, and Lenovo M10 FHD Plus that causes 60fps H265 streams to be
marked as unsupported
* Add workaround that ensures the first frame is always rendered while
tunneling even if the device does not do this automatically as required
by the API ([#1169](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1169)).
([#966](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/966)).
* Fix issue where HDR color info handling causes codec misbehavior and
prevents adaptive format switches for SDR video tracks
([#1158](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1158)).
* Text:
* WebVTT: Prevent directly consecutive cues from creating spurious
additional `CuesWithTiming` instances from `WebvttParser.parse`
([#1177](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1177)).
* DRM:
* Work around a `NoSuchMethodError` which can be thrown by the `MediaDrm`
framework instead of `ResourceBusyException` or
`NotProvisionedException` on some Android 14 devices
([#1145](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1145)).
* Effect:
* Improved PQ to SDR tone-mapping by converting color spaces.
* Session:
* Fix issue where the current position jumps back when the controller
replaces the current item
([#951](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/951)).
* Fix issue where `MediaMetadata` with just non-null `extras` is not
transmitted between media controllers and sessions
([#1176](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1176)).
* UI:
* Fallback to include audio track language name if `Locale` cannot
identify a display name
([#988](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/988)).
* DASH Extension:
* Populate all `Label` elements from the manifest into `Format.labels`
([#1054](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/1054)).
* RTSP Extension:
* Skip empty session information values (i-tags) in SDP parsing
([#1087](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1087)).
* Decoder Extensions (FFmpeg, VP9, AV1, MIDI, etc.):
* Disable the MIDI extension as a local dependency by default because it
requires an additional Maven repository to be configured. Users who need
this module from a local dependency
[can re-enable it](https://github.com/androidx/media/blob/main/README.md#midi-module).
### 1.3.0 (2024-03-06)
This release includes the following changes since the
[1.2.1 release](#121-2024-01-09):
* Common Library:
* Implement support for `android.resource://package/[type/]name` raw
resource URIs where `package` is different to the package of the current
application. This has always been documented to work, but wasn't
correctly implemented until now.
* Normalize MIME types set by app code or read from media to be fully
lower-case.
* Define ads with a full `MediaItem` instead of a single `Uri` in
`AdPlaybackState`.
* Increase `minSdk` to 19 (Android KitKat). This is
[aligned with all other AndroidX libraries](https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2023/10/androidx-minsdkversion-19.html),
and is required for us to upgrade to the latest versions of our AndroidX
dependencies.
* Populate both `artworkUri` and `artworkData` in
`MediaMetadata.Builder.populate(MediaMetadata)` when at least one of
them is non-null ([#964](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/964)).
* ExoPlayer:
* Add `PreloadMediaSource` and `PreloadMediaPeriod` that allows apps to
preload a content media source at a specific start position before
playback. `PreloadMediaSource` takes care of preparing the content media
source to receive the `Timeline`, preparing and caching the period at
the given start position, selecting tracks and loading media data for
the period. Apps control the preload progress by implementing
`PreloadMediaSource.PreloadControl` and set the preloaded source to the
player for playback.
* Add `ExoPlayer.setImageOutput` that allows apps to set
`ImageRenderer.ImageOutput`.
* `DefaultRenderersFactory` now provides an `ImageRenderer` to the player
by default with null `ImageOutput` and `ImageDecoder.Factory.DEFAULT`.
* Emit `Player.Listener.onPositionDiscontinuity` event when silence is
skipped ([#765](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/765)).
* Add experimental support for parsing subtitles during extraction. You
can enable this using
`MediaSource.Factory.experimentalParseSubtitlesDuringExtraction()`.
* Support adaptive media sources with `PreloadMediaSource`.
* Implement `HttpEngineDataSource`, an `HttpDataSource` using the
[HttpEngine](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/http/HttpEngine)
API.
* Prevent subclassing `CompositeSequenceableLoader`. This component was
[previously made extensible](https://github.com/androidx/media/commit/0de57cbfae7165dd3bb829e323d089cd312b4b1b)
but was never subclassed within the library. Customizations can be done
by wrapping an instance using the
[decorator pattern](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decorator_pattern) and
implementing a custom `CompositeSequenceableLoaderFactory`.
* Fix issue where repeating the same time causes metadata from this item
to be cleared ([#1007](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1007)).
* Rename `experimentalSetSubtitleParserFactory` methods on
`BundledChunkExtractor.Factory` and `DefaultHlsExtractorFactory` to
`setSubtitleParserFactory` and disallow passing `null`. Use the new
`experimentalParseSubtitlesDuringExtraction(boolean)` methods to control
parsing behaviour.
* Add support for customising the `SubtitleParser.Factory` used during
extraction. This can be achieved with
`MediaSource.Factory.setSubtitleParserFactory()`.
* Add source prefix to all `Format.id` fields generated from
`MergingMediaSource`. This helps to identify which source produced a
`Format` ([#883](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/883)).
* Fix the regex used for validating custom Common Media Client Data (CMCD)
key names by modifying it to only check for hyphen
([#1028](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1028)).
* Stop double-encoding CMCD query parameters
([#1075](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1075)).
* Transformer:
* Add support for flattening H.265/HEVC SEF slow motion videos.
* Increase transmuxing speed, especially for 'remove video' edits.
* Add API to ensure that the output file starts on a video frame. This can
make the output of trimming operations more compatible with player
implementations that don't show the first video frame until its
presentation timestamp
([#829](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/829)).
* Add support for optimizing single asset mp4 trim operations.
* Add support to ensure a video frame has the first timestamp in the
output file. Fixes output files beginning with black frame on iOS based
players ([#829](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/829)).
* Track Selection:
* Add `DefaultTrackSelector.selectImageTrack` to enable image track
selection.
* Add `TrackSelectionParameters.isPrioritizeImageOverVideoEnabled` to
determine whether to select an image track if both an image track and a
video track are available. The default value is `false` which means
selecting a video track is prioritized.
* Extractors:
* Add additional AV1C parsing to MP4 extractor to retrieve
`ColorInfo.colorSpace`, `ColorInfo.colorTransfer`, and
`ColorInfo.colorRange` values
([#692](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/692)).
* MP3: Use constant bitrate (CBR) seeking for files with an `Info` header
(the CBR equivalent of the `Xing` header). Previously we used the seek
table from the `Info` header, but this results in less precise seeking
than if we ignore it and assume the file is CBR.
* MPEG2-TS: Add DTS, DTS-LBR and DTS:X Profile2 support
([#275](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/275)).
* Extract audio types from TS descriptors and map them to role flags,
allowing users to make better-informed audio track selections
([#973](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/973)).
* Audio:
* Improve silence skipping algorithm with smooth volume ramp; retained
minimal silence and more natural silence durations
([#7423](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/7423)).
* Report the skipped silence more deterministically
([#1035](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1035)).
* Video:
* Change the `MediaCodecVideoRenderer` constructor that takes a
`VideoFrameProcessor.Factory` argument and replace it with a constructor
that takes a `VideoSinkProvider` argument. Apps that want to inject a
custom `VideoFrameProcessor.Factory` can instantiate a
`CompositingVideoSinkProvider` that uses the custom
`VideoFrameProcessor.Factory` and pass the video sink provider to
`MediaCodecVideoRenderer`.
* Text:
* Fix serialization of bitmap cues to resolve `Tried to marshall a Parcel
that contained Binder objects` error when using
`DefaultExtractorsFactory.setTextTrackTranscodingEnabled`
([#836](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/836)).
* CEA-708: Ignore `rowLock` value. The CEA-708-E S-2023 spec states that
`rowLock` and `columnLock` should both be assumed to be true, regardless
of the values present in the stream (`columnLock` support is not
implemented, so it's effectively assumed to always be false).
* Image:
* Add support for DASH thumbnails. Grid images are cropped and individual
thumbnails are provided to `ImageOutput` close to their presentation
times.
* DRM:
* Play 'clear lead' unencrypted samples in DRM content immediately by
default, even if the keys for the later encrypted samples aren't ready
yet. This may lead to mid-playback stalls if the keys still aren't ready
when the playback position reaches the encrypted samples (but previously
playback wouldn't have started at all by this point). This behavior can
be disabled with
[`MediaItem.DrmConfiguration.Builder.setPlayClearContentWithoutKey`](https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/common/MediaItem.DrmConfiguration.Builder#setPlayClearContentWithoutKey\(boolean\))
or
[`DefaultDrmSessionManager.Builder.setPlayClearSamplesWithoutKeys`](https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/exoplayer/drm/DefaultDrmSessionManager.Builder#setPlayClearSamplesWithoutKeys\(boolean\)).
* IMA extension:
* Fix issue where DASH and HLS ads without the appropriate file extension
can't be played.
* Session:
* Disable double-click detection for TV apps
([#962](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/962)).
* Fix issue where `MediaItem.RequestMetadata` with just non-null extras is
not transmitted between media controllers and sessions.
* Add constructor to `MediaLibrarySession.Builder` that only takes a
`Context` instead of a `MediaLibraryService`.
* HLS Extension:
* Reduce `HlsMediaPeriod` to package-private visibility. This type
shouldn't be directly depended on from outside the HLS package.
* Resolve seeks to beginning of a segment more efficiently
([#1031](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/1031)).
* Decoder Extensions (FFmpeg, VP9, AV1, MIDI, etc.):
* MIDI decoder: Ignore SysEx event messages
([#710](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/710)).
* Test Utilities:
* Don't pause playback in `TestPlayerRunHelper.playUntilPosition`. The
test keeps the playback in a playing state, but suspends progress until
the test is able to add assertions and further actions.
* Demo app:
* Add a shortform demo module to demo the usage of `PreloadMediaSource`
with the short-form content use case.

## 1.2
### 1.2.1 (2024-01-09)
This release includes the following changes since the
[1.2.0 release](#120-2023-11-15):
* ExoPlayer:
* Fix issue where manual seeks outside of the
`LiveConfiguration.min/maxOffset` range keep adjusting the offset back
to `min/maxOffset`.
* Fix issue that OPUS and VORBIS channel layouts are wrong for 3, 5, 6, 7
and 8 channels
([#8396](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/8396)).
* Fix issue where track selections after seek to zero in a live stream
incorrectly let the stream start at its default position
([#9347](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/9347)).
* Fix the issue where new instances of `CmcdData.Factory` were receiving
negative values for `bufferedDurationUs` from chunk sources, resulting
in an `IllegalArgumentException`
([#888](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/888)).
* Transformer:
* Work around an issue where the encoder would throw at configuration time
due to setting a high operating rate.
* Extractors:
* Mark secondary (unplayable) HEVC tracks in JPEG motion photos as
`ROLE_FLAG_ALTERNATE` to prevent them being automatically selected for
playback because of their higher resolution.
* Fix wrong keyframe detection for TS H264 streams
([#864](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/864)).
* Fix duration estimation of TS streams that are longer than 47721 seconds
([#855](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/855)).
* Audio:
* Fix handling of EOS for `SilenceSkippingAudioProcessor` when called
multiple times ([#712](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/712)).
* Video:
* Add workaround for a device issue on Galaxy Tab S7 FE, Chromecast with
Google TV, and Lenovo M10 FHD Plus that causes 60fps AVC streams to be
marked as unsupported
([#693](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/693)).
* Metadata:
* Fix bug where `MediaMetadata` was only populated from Vorbis comments
with upper-case keys
([#876](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/876)).
* Catch `OutOfMemoryError` when parsing very large ID3 frames, meaning
playback can continue without the tag info instead of playback failing
completely.
* DRM:
* Extend workaround for spurious ClearKey `https://default.url` license
URL to API 33+ (previously the workaround only applied on API 33
exactly) ([#837](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/837)).
* Fix `ERROR_DRM_SESSION_NOT_OPENED` when switching from encrypted to
clear content without a surface attached to the player. The error was
due to incorrectly using a secure decoder to play the clear content.
* Session:
* Put the custom keys and values in `MediaMetadataCompat` to
`MediaMetadata.extras` and `MediaMetadata.extras` to
`MediaMetadataCompat`
([#756](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/756),
[#802](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/802)).
* Fix broadcasting `notifyChildrenChanged` for legacy controllers
([#644](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/644)).
* Fix a bug where setting a negative time for a disabled `setWhen` timer
of the notification caused a crash on some devices
([#903](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/903)).
* Fix `IllegalStateException` when the media notification controller
hasn't completed connecting when the first notification update is
requested ([#917](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/917)).
* UI:
* Fix issue where forward and rewind buttons are not visible when used
with Material Design in a BottomSheetDialogFragment
([#511](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/511)).
* Fix issue where the numbers in the fast forward button of the
`PlayerControlView` were misaligned
([#547](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/547)).
* DASH Extension:
* Parse "f800" as channel count of 5 for Dolby in DASH manifest
([#688](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/688)).
* Decoder Extensions (FFmpeg, VP9, AV1, MIDI, etc.):
* MIDI: Fix issue where seeking forward skips the Program Change events
([#704](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/704)).
* Migrate to FFmpeg 6.0 and update supported NDK to `r26b`
([#707](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/707),
[#867](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/867)).
* Cast Extension:
* Sanitize creation of a `Timeline` to not crash the app when loading
media fails on the cast device
([#708](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/708)).
### 1.2.0 (2023-11-15)
This release includes the following changes since the
[1.1.1 release](#111-2023-08-14):
* Common Library:
* Add a `@Nullable Throwable` parameter to the methods in the `Log.Logger`
interface. The `message` parameter to these methods no longer contains
any information about the `Throwable` passed to the `Log.{d,i,w,e}()`
methods, so implementations will need to manually append this
information if desired (possibly using
`Logger.appendThrowableString(String, Throwable)`).
* Fix Kotlin compatibility issue where nullable generic type parameters
and nullable array element types are not detected as nullable. Examples
are `TrackSelectorResult` and `SimpleDecoder` method parameters
([#6792](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/6792)).
* Change default UI and notification behavior in
`Util.shouldShowPlayButton` to show a "play" button while playback is
temporarily suppressed (e.g. due to transient audio focus loss). The
legacy behavior can be maintained by using
`PlayerView.setShowPlayButtonIfPlaybackIsSuppressed(false)` or
`MediaSession.Builder.setShowPlayButtonIfPlaybackIsSuppressed(false)`
([#11213](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/11213)).
* Upgrade `androidx.annotation:annotation-experimental` to `1.3.1` to fix
https://issuetracker.google.com/251172715.
* Move `ExoPlayer.setAudioAttributes` to the `Player` interface.
* ExoPlayer:
* Fix seeking issues in AC4 streams caused by not identifying decode-only
samples correctly
([#11000](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/11000)).
* Add suppression of playback on unsuitable audio output devices (e.g. the
built-in speaker on Wear OS devices) when this feature is enabled via
`ExoPlayer.Builder.setSuppressPlaybackOnUnsuitableOutput`. The playback
suppression reason will be updated as
`Player.PLAYBACK_SUPPRESSION_REASON_UNSUITABLE_AUDIO_OUTPUT` if playback
is attempted when no suitable audio outputs are available, or if all
suitable outputs are disconnected during playback. The suppression
reason will be removed when a suitable output is connected.
* Add `MediaSource.canUpdateMediaItem` and `MediaSource.updateMediaItem`
to accept `MediaItem` updates after creation via
`Player.replaceMediaItem(s)`.
* Allow `MediaItem` updates for all `MediaSource` classes provided by the
library via `Player.replaceMediaItem(s)`
([#33](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/33),
[#9978](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/9978)).
* Rename `MimeTypes.TEXT_EXOPLAYER_CUES` to
`MimeTypes.APPLICATION_MEDIA3_CUES`.
* Add `PngExtractor` that sends and reads a whole PNG file into the
`TrackOutput` as one sample.
* Enhance `SequenceableLoader.continueLoading(long)` method in the
`SequenceableLoader` interface to
`SequenceableLoader.continueLoading(LoadingInfo loadingInfo)`.
`LoadingInfo` contains additional parameters, including `playbackSpeed`
and `lastRebufferRealtimeMs` in addition to the existing
`playbackPositionUs`.
* Enhance `ChunkSource.getNextChunk(long, long, List, ChunkHolder)` method
in the `ChunkSource` interface to `ChunkSource.getNextChunk(LoadingInfo,
long, List, ChunkHolder)`.
* Add additional fields to Common Media Client Data (CMCD) logging: buffer
starvation (`bs`), deadline (`dl`), playback rate (`pr`) and startup
(`su`) ([#8699](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/8699)).
* Add luma and chroma bitdepth to `ColorInfo`
([#491](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/491)).
* Add additional fields to Common Media Client Data (CMCD) logging: next
object request (`nor`) and next range request (`nrr`)
([#8699](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/8699)).
* Add functionality to transmit Common Media Client Data (CMCD) data using
query parameters ([#553](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/553)).
* Fix `ConcurrentModificationException` in `ExperimentalBandwidthMeter`
([#612](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/612)).
* Add `MediaPeriodId` parameter to
`CompositeMediaSource.getMediaTimeForChildMediaTime`.
* Support `ClippingMediaSource` (and other sources with period/window time
offsets) in `ConcatenatingMediaSource2`
([#11226](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/11226)).
* Change `BaseRenderer.onStreamChanged()` to also receive a
`MediaPeriodId` argument.
* Transformer:
* Parse EXIF rotation data for image inputs.
* Remove `TransformationRequest.HdrMode` annotation type and its
associated constants. Use `Composition.HdrMode` and its associated
constants instead.
* Simplify the `OverlaySettings` to fix rotation issues.
* Changed `frameRate` and `durationUs` parameters of
`SampleConsumer.queueInputBitmap` to `TimestampIterator`.
* Track Selection:
* Add `DefaultTrackSelector.Parameters.allowAudioNonSeamlessAdaptiveness`
to explicitly allow or disallow non-seamless adaptation. The default
stays at its current behavior of `true`.
* Extractors:
* MPEG-TS: Ensure the last frame is rendered by passing the last access
unit of a stream to the sample queue
([#7909](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/7909)).
* Fix typo when determining `rotationDegrees`. Changed
`projectionPosePitch` to `projectionPoseRoll`
([#461](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/461)).
* Remove the assumption that `Extractor` instances can be directly
inspected with `instanceof`. If you want runtime access to the
implementation details of an `Extractor` you must first call
`Extractor.getUnderlyingInstance`.
* Add `BmpExtractor`.
* Add `WebpExtractor`.
* Add `HeifExtractor`.
* Add
[QuickTime classic](https://developer.apple.com/standards/qtff-2001.pdf)
support to `Mp4Extractor`.
* Audio:
* Add support for 24/32-bit big-endian PCM in MP4 and Matroska, and parse
PCM encoding for `lpcm` in MP4.
* Add support for extracting Vorbis audio in MP4.
* Add `AudioSink.getFormatOffloadSupport(Format)` that retrieves level of
offload support the sink can provide for the format through a
`DefaultAudioOffloadSupportProvider`. It returns the new
`AudioOffloadSupport` that contains `isFormatSupported`,
`isGaplessSupported`, and `isSpeedChangeSupported`.
* Add `AudioSink.setOffloadMode()` through which the offload configuration
on the audio sink is configured. Default is
`AudioSink.OFFLOAD_MODE_DISABLED`.
* Offload can be enabled through `setAudioOffloadPreference` in
`TrackSelectionParameters`. If the set preference is to enable, the
device supports offload for the format, and the track selection is a
single audio track, then audio offload will be enabled.
* If `audioOffloadModePreference` is set to
`AUDIO_OFFLOAD_MODE_PREFERENCE_REQUIRED`, then the
`DefaultTrackSelector` will only select an audio track and only if that
track's format is supported in offload. If no audio track is supported
in offload, then no track will be selected.
* Disabling gapless support for offload when pre-API level 33 due to
playback position issue after track transition.
* Remove parameter `enableOffload` from
`DefaultRenderersFactory.buildAudioSink` method signature.
* Remove method `DefaultAudioSink.Builder.setOffloadMode`.
* Remove intdef value
`DefaultAudioSink.OffloadMode.OFFLOAD_MODE_ENABLED_GAPLESS_DISABLED`.
* Add support for Opus gapless metadata during offload playback.
* Allow renderer recovery by disabling offload if failed at first write
([#627](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/627)).
* Enable Offload Scheduling by default for audio-only offloaded playback.
* Delete `ExoPlayer.experimentalSetOffloadSchedulingEnabled` and
`AudioOffloadListener.onExperimentalOffloadSchedulingEnabledChanged`.
* Renamed `onExperimentalSleepingForOffloadChanged` as
`onSleepingForOffloadChanged` and `onExperimentalOffloadedPlayback` as
`onOffloadedPlayback`.
* Move audio offload mode related `TrackSelectionParameters` interfaces
and definitions to an inner `AudioOffloadPreferences` class.
* Add `onAudioTrackInitialized` and `onAudioTrackReleased` callbacks to
`AnalyticsListener`, `AudioRendererEventListener` and
`AudioSink.Listener`.
* Fix DTS Express audio buffer underflow issue
([#650](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/650)).
* Fix bug where the capabilities check for E-AC3-JOC throws an
`IllegalArgumentException`
([#677](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/677)).
* Video:
* Allow `MediaCodecVideoRenderer` to use a custom
`VideoFrameProcessor.Factory`.
* Fix bug where the first frame couldn't be rendered if the audio stream
starts with negative timestamps
([#291](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/291)).
* Text:
* Remove `ExoplayerCuesDecoder`. Text tracks with `sampleMimeType =
application/x-media3-cues` are now directly handled by `TextRenderer`
without needing a `SubtitleDecoder` instance.
* Metadata:
* `MetadataDecoder.decode` will no longer be called for "decode-only"
samples as the implementation must return null anyway.
* Effect:
* Add `VideoFrameProcessor.queueInputBitmap(Bitmap, Iterator)`
queuing bitmap input by timestamp.
* Change `VideoFrameProcessor.registerInputStream()` to be non-blocking.
Apps must implement
`VideoFrameProcessor.Listener#onInputStreamRegistered()`.
* Changed `frameRate` and `durationUs` parameters of
`VideoFrameProcessor.queueInputBitmap` to `TimestampIterator`.
* IMA extension:
* Fix bug where a multi-period DASH live stream that is not the first item
in a playlist can throw an exception
([#571](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/571)).
* Release StreamManager before calling `AdsLoader.destroy()`
* Bump IMA SDK version to 3.31.0.
* Session:
* Set the notifications foreground service behavior to
`FOREGROUND_SERVICE_IMMEDIATE` in `DefaultMediaNotificationProvider`
([#167](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/167)).
* Use only
`android.media.session.MediaSession.setMediaButtonBroadcastReceiver()`
above API 31 to avoid problems with deprecated API on Samsung devices
([#167](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/167)).
* Use the media notification controller as proxy to set available commands
and custom layout used to populate the notification and the platform
session.
* Convert media button events that are received by
`MediaSessionService.onStartCommand()` within Media3 instead of routing
them to the platform session and back to Media3. With this, the caller
controller is always the media notification controller and apps can
easily recognize calls coming from the notification in the same way on
all supported API levels.
* Fix bug where `MediaController.getCurrentPosition()` is not advancing
when connected to a legacy `MediaSessionCompat`.
* Add `MediaLibrarySession.getSubscribedControllers(mediaId)` for
convenience.
* Override `MediaLibrarySession.Callback.onSubscribe()` to assert the
availability of the parent ID for which the controller subscribes. If
successful, the subscription is accepted and `notifyChildrenChanged()`
is called immediately to inform the browser
([#561](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/561)).
* Add session demo module for Automotive OS and enable session demo for
Android Auto.
* Do not set the queue of the framework session when
`COMMAND_GET_TIMELINE` is not available for the media notification
controller. With Android Auto as the client controller reading from the
framework session, this has the effect that the `queue` button in the UI
of Android Auto is not displayed
([#339](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/339)).
* Use `DataSourceBitmapLoader` by default instead of `SimpleBitmapLoader`
([#271](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/271),
[#327](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/327)).
* Add `MediaSession.Callback.onMediaButtonEvent(Intent)` that allows apps
to override the default media button event handling.
* UI:
* Add a `Player.Listener` implementation for Wear OS devices that handles
playback suppression due to
`Player.PLAYBACK_SUPPRESSION_REASON_UNSUITABLE_AUDIO_OUTPUT` by
launching a system dialog to allow a user to connect a suitable audio
output (e.g. bluetooth headphones). The listener will auto-resume
playback if a suitable device is connected within a configurable timeout
(default is 5 minutes).
* Downloads:
* Declare "data sync" foreground service type for `DownloadService` for
Android 14 compatibility. When using this service, the app also needs to
add `dataSync` as `foregroundServiceType` in the manifest and add the
`FOREGROUND_SERVICE_DATA_SYNC` permission
([#11239](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/11239)).
* HLS Extension:
* Refresh the HLS live playlist with an interval calculated from the last
load start time rather than the last load completed time
([#663](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/663)).
* DASH Extension:
* Allow multiple of the same DASH identifier in segment template url.
* Add experimental support for parsing subtitles during extraction. This
has better support for merging overlapping subtitles, including
resolving flickering when transitioning between subtitle segments. You
can enable this using
`DashMediaSource.Factory.experimentalParseSubtitlesDuringExtraction()`
([#288](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/288)).
* RTSP Extension:
* Fix a race condition that could lead to `IndexOutOfBoundsException` when
falling back to TCP, or playback hanging in some situations.
* Check state in RTSP setup when returning loading state of
`RtspMediaPeriod`
([#577](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/577)).
* Ignore custom Rtsp request methods in Options response public header
([#613](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/613)).
* Use RTSP Setup Response timeout value in time interval of sending
keep-alive RTSP Options requests
([#662](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/662)).
* Decoder Extensions (FFmpeg, VP9, AV1, MIDI, etc.):
* Release the MIDI decoder module, which provides support for playback of
standard MIDI files using the Jsyn library to synthesize audio.
* Add `DecoderOutputBuffer.shouldBeSkipped` to directly mark output
buffers that don't need to be presented. This is preferred over
`C.BUFFER_FLAG_DECODE_ONLY` that will be deprecated.
* Add `Decoder.setOutputStartTimeUs` and
`SimpleDecoder.isAtLeastOutputStartTimeUs` to allow decoders to drop
decode-only samples before the start time. This should be preferred to
`Buffer.isDecodeOnly` that will be deprecated.
* Fix bug publishing MIDI decoder artifact to Maven repository. The
artifact is renamed to `media3-exoplayer-midi`
([#734](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/734)).
* Leanback extension:
* Fix bug where disabling a surface can cause an `ArithmeticException` in
Leanback code ([#617](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/617)).
* Test Utilities:
* Make `TestExoPlayerBuilder` and `FakeClock` compatible with Espresso UI
tests and Compose UI tests. This fixes a bug where playback advances
non-deterministically during Espresso or Compose view interactions.
* Remove deprecated symbols:
* Remove
`TransformationRequest.Builder.setEnableRequestSdrToneMapping(boolean)`
and
`TransformationRequest.Builder.experimental_setEnableHdrEditing(boolean)`.
Use `Composition.Builder.setHdrMode(int)` and pass the `Composition` to
`Transformer.start(Composition, String)` instead.
* Remove deprecated `DownloadNotificationHelper.buildProgressNotification`
method, use a non deprecated method that takes a `notMetRequirements`
parameter instead.

## 1.1
### 1.1.1 (2023-08-14)
This release corresponds to the
[ExoPlayer 2.19.1 release](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/releases/tag/r2.19.1).
This release includes the following changes since the
[1.1.0 release](#110-2023-07-05):
* Common Library:
* Remove accidentally added `multidex` dependency from all modules
([#499](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/499)).
* ExoPlayer:
* Fix issue in `PlaybackStatsListener` where spurious `PlaybackStats` are
created after the playlist is cleared.
* Add additional fields to Common Media Client Data (CMCD) logging:
streaming format (sf), stream type (st), version (v), top birate (tb),
object duration (d), measured throughput (mtp) and object type (ot)
([#8699](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/8699)).
* Audio:
* Fix a bug where `Player.getState()` never transitioned to `STATE_ENDED`
when playing very short files
([#538](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/538)).
* Audio Offload:
* Prepend Ogg ID Header and Comment Header Pages to bitstream for
offloaded Opus playback in accordance with RFC 7845.
* Video:
* H.265/HEVC: Fix parsing SPS short and long term reference picture info.
* Text:
* CEA-608: Change cue truncation logic to only consider visible text.
Previously indent and tab offset were included when limiting the cue
length to 32 characters (which was technically correct by the spec)
([#11019](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/11019)).
* IMA extension:
* Bump IMA SDK version to 3.30.3.
* Session:
* Add custom layout to the state of the controller and provide a getter to
access it. When the custom layout changes,
`MediaController.Listener.onCustomLayoutChanged` is called. Apps that
want to send different custom layouts to different Media3 controller can
do this in `MediaSession.Callback.onConnect` by using an
`AcceptedResultBuilder` to make sure the custom layout is available to
the controller when connection completes.
* Fix cases where `MediaLibraryServiceLegacyStub` sent an error to a
`Result` that didn't support this which produced an
`UnsupportedOperationException`
([#78](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/78)).
* Fix the way `PlayerWrapper` creates a `VolumeProviderCompat` by
determining `volumeControlType` through both legacy commands
(`COMMAND_ADJUST_DEVICE_VOLUME` and `COMMAND_SET_DEVICE_VOLUME`) and new
commands (`COMMAND_ADJUST_DEVICE_VOLUME_WITH_FLAGS` and
`COMMAND_SET_DEVICE_VOLUME_WITH_FLAGS`)
([#554](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/554)).
### 1.1.0 (2023-07-05)
This release corresponds to the
[ExoPlayer 2.19.0 release](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/releases/tag/r2.19.0).
This release contains the following changes since the
[1.0.2 release](#102-2023-05-18):
* Common Library:
* Add suppression reason for unsuitable audio route and play when ready
change reason for suppressed too long.
([#15](https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/15)).
* Add commands to Player:
* `COMMAND_GET_METADATA`
* `COMMAND_SET_PLAYLIST_METADATA`
* `COMMAND_SET_DEVICE_VOLUME_WITH_FLAGS`
* `COMMAND_ADJUST_DEVICE_VOLUME_WITH_FLAGS`
* Add overloaded methods to Player which allow users to specify volume
flags:
* `void setDeviceVolume(int, int)`
* `void increaseDeviceVolume(int)`
* `void decreaseDeviceVolume(int)`
* `void setDeviceMuted(boolean, int)`
* Add `Builder` for `DeviceInfo` and deprecate existing constructor.
* Add `DeviceInfo.routingControllerId` to specify the routing controller
ID for remote playbacks.
* Add `Player.replaceMediaItem(s)` as a shortcut to adding and removing
items at the same position
([#8046](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/8046)).
* ExoPlayer:
* Allow ExoPlayer to have control of device volume methods only if
explicitly opted in. Use
`ExoPlayer.Builder.setDeviceVolumeControlEnabled` to have access to:
* `getDeviceVolume()`
* `isDeviceMuted()`
* `setDeviceVolume(int)` and `setDeviceVolume(int, int)`
* `increaseDeviceVolume(int)` and `increaseDeviceVolume(int, int)`
* `decreaseDeviceVolume(int)` and `decreaseDeviceVolume(int, int)`
* Add `FilteringMediaSource` that allows to filter available track types
from a `MediaSource`.
* Add support for including Common Media Client Data (CMCD) in the
outgoing requests of adaptive streaming formats DASH, HLS, and
SmoothStreaming. The following fields, `br`, `bl`, `cid`, `rtp`, and
`sid`, have been incorporated
([#8699](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/8699)). API
structure and API methods:
* CMCD logging is disabled by default, use
`MediaSource.Factory.setCmcdConfigurationFactory(CmcdConfiguration.Factory
cmcdConfigurationFactory)` to enable it.
* All keys are enabled by default, override
`CmcdConfiguration.RequestConfig.isKeyAllowed(String key)` to filter
out which keys are logged.
* Override `CmcdConfiguration.RequestConfig.getCustomData()` to enable
custom key logging.
* Add additional action to manifest of main demo to make it easier to
start the demo app with a custom `*.exolist.json` file
([#439](https://github.com/androidx/media/pull/439)).
* Add `ExoPlayer.setVideoEffects()` for using `Effect` during video
playback.
* Update `SampleQueue` to store `sourceId` as a `long` rather than an
`int`. This changes the signatures of public methods
`SampleQueue.sourceId` and `SampleQueue.peekSourceId`.
* Add parameters to `LoadControl` methods `shouldStartPlayback` and
`onTracksSelected` that allow associating these methods with the
relevant `MediaPeriod`.
* Change signature of
`ServerSideAdInsertionMediaSource.setAdPlaybackStates(Map
