BasePlayer simplifies implementations by handling all the various seek methods and forwarding to a single method that can then be implemented by subclasses. However, this loses the information about the concrete entry point used for seeking, which is relevant when the subclass wants to verify or filter by Player.Command. This can be improved by adding the command as a new parameter. Since we have to change the method anyway, we can also incorporate the boolean flag about whether the current item is repeated to avoid the separate method. PiperOrigin-RevId: 494948094
Cast module
This module provides a Player implementation that controls a Cast receiver app.
Getting the module
The easiest way to get the module is to add it as a gradle dependency:
implementation 'androidx.media3:media3-cast: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
Create a CastPlayer and use it to control a Cast receiver app. Since
CastPlayer implements the Player interface, it can be passed to all media
components that accept a Player, including the UI components provided by the
UI module.
