This fix applies to Android 12 and above. In this fix, the `MediaSessionService` will try to start in the foreground before the session playback resumes, if ForegroundServiceStartNotAllowedException is thrown, then the app can handle the exception with their customized implementation of MediaSessionService.Listener.onForegroundServiceStartNotAllowedException. If no exception thrown, the a media notification corresponding to paused state will be sent as the consequence of successfully starting in the foreground. And when the player actually resumes, another media notification corresponding to playing state will be sent. PiperOrigin-RevId: 501803930
Session module
This module provides media session functionality through which media information and controls can be exposed to the Android platform, as well as to other processes and applications.
Getting the module
The easiest way to get the module is to add it as a gradle dependency:
implementation 'androidx.media3:media3-session: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.
