The null-behaviour of these methods creates a minimization footgun, because **any** call to these setters will prevent R8 from removing the default implementation (even if it's never used by the app) - this is because R8 can't tell the default implementation is only used if the parameter is `null`.

ExoPlayer SmoothStreaming module
Provides support for SmoothStreaming content in ExoPlayer.
Getting the module
The easiest way to get the module is to add it as a gradle dependency:
implementation 'androidx.media3:media3-exoplayer-smoothstreaming: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.
Adding a dependency to this module is all that's required to enable playback of
SmoothStreaming media items added to ExoPlayer
in its default configuration.
Internally, DefaultMediaSourceFactory
will automatically detect the presence
of the module and convert a SmoothStreaming MediaItem
into a SsMediaSource
for playback.
Similarly, a DownloadManager
in its default configuration will use
DefaultDownloaderFactory
, which will automatically detect the presence of
the module and build SsDownloader
instances to download SmoothStreaming
content.
For advanced playback use cases, applications can build SsMediaSource
instances and pass them directly to the player. For advanced download use cases,
SsDownloader
can be used directly.
