When bundling PlayerInfo, we remove data when the controller is not allowed to access this data via getters. We also remove data for performance reasons. In the toBundle() method, it's currently hard to make the connection between allowed commands and filtering, because the values are checked at a different place. This can be made more readable by forwarding the applicable Commands directly. The only functional fix is to filter the Timeline when sending the first PlayerInfo after a connecting a controller if the command to get the Timeline is not available. This also allows us to remove a path to filter MediaItems from Timelines as it isn't used. PiperOrigin-RevId: 502607391
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.
