- Add constants class. Currently housing a single lonely variable, which is used generally throughout the library, and so no longer nicely fits into a specific class. - Rename a few other constants to add clear units. - Made minor tweak to ExoPlayer documentation.
ExoPlayer Readme
Description
ExoPlayer is an application level media player for Android. It provides an alternative to Android’s MediaPlayer API for playing audio and video both locally and over the internet. ExoPlayer supports features not currently supported by Android’s MediaPlayer API (as of KitKat), including DASH and SmoothStreaming adaptive playbacks, persistent caching and custom renderers. Unlike the MediaPlayer API, ExoPlayer is easy to customize and extend, and can be updated through Play Store application updates.
