tonihei 9af85d9b25 Move DrmSessionManager initial player setup to its own method.
Currently, DrmSessionManager takes player specific values (= the
playback looper) through (pre)acquireSession calls and requires
the caller to pass in the same values every time.

Instead, we can configure the DrmSessionManager for playback with
a player once before it's being used. We can't simply extend the
prepare() method as prepare may be called before the player is
created to prewarm the DrmSessionManager.

The new method also takes a PlayerId which is bound to the lifetime
of the player similar to the playback looper.

To avoid breakage of custom MediaSources with DRM, we can keep the
old the SampleQueue.createWithDrm method as deprecated.

ExoPlayer DASH module

Provides support for Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH) 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-dash: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.

Using the module

Adding a dependency to this module is all that's required to enable playback of DASH media items added to ExoPlayer in its default configuration. Internally, DefaultMediaSourceFactory will automatically detect the presence of the module and convert a DASH MediaItem into a DashMediaSource for playback.

Similarly, a DownloadManager in its default configuration will use DefaultDownloaderFactory, which will automatically detect the presence of the module and build DashDownloader instances to download DASH content.

For advanced playback use cases, applications can build DashMediaSource instances and pass them directly to the player. For advanced download use cases, DashDownloader can be used directly.
