bachinger 7ba79cfa42 Split ad playback state and recalculate window and period duriations
This change enables the ImaServerSideAdInsertionMediaSource for multi-period content. The global ad playback state is split into pieces for each period and the window and period durations are calculated accordingly in the ServerSideAdInsertionTimeline.

For multi-period live content (DASH), the ad playback state is not set with this change. This is deferred to a follow up CL. Splitting is very tricky. For each timeline update the windowStartTimeUs may vary for some milliseconds relative to the start of the period.positionInWindowUs. This requires to either introduce some fuzzy logic or to choose a different approach than for multi-period VOD. Because mistakes within the playback states of subsequent moving live windows produces crashes, it seems sensible to defer this for now and keep this change in a separate future CL (unblock further work, easy to rollback).

In this state, live DASH stream are working and the ad overlay is placed over the player correctly bu the SDK. However, ads are not reported by the position discontinuity event. Similarly, the player.isPlayingAd() does never returns true when a ad period is playing.

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 'com.google.android.exoplayer:exoplayer-core:2.X.X'

where 2.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

The developer guide documents how to get started.
