ProgressiveMediaPeriod loads all available tracks into SampleStreams (because it needs to read the data anyway and it allows easy activation of tracks without reloading). However, the SampleStreams for disabled tracks are not read and no one if waiting for them. The buffered position is used for user-visible state (e.g. in the UI) and to check how much data is already buffered to decide when to stop buffering (using LoadControl). Both values benefit from only using the actually enabled tracks to better reflect what is available for playback at the moment. Issue:Issue: google/ExoPlayer#10361 PiperOrigin-RevId: 458475038
ExoPlayer module
This module provides ExoPlayer
, the Player
implementation for local media
playback on Android.
Getting the module
The easiest way to get the module is to add it as a gradle dependency:
implementation 'androidx.media3:media3-exoplayer: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.
