1.1.1

This release corresponds to the ExoPlayer 2.19.1 release.

This release includes the following changes since the 1.1.0 release:

• Common Library:
  • Remove accidentally added multidex dependency from all modules (#499).
• ExoPlayer:
  • Fix issue in PlaybackStatsListener where spurious PlaybackStats are created after the playlist is cleared.
  • Add additional fields to Common Media Client Data (CMCD) logging: streaming format (sf), stream type (st), version (v), top birate (tb), object duration (d), measured throughput (mtp) and object type (ot) (#8699).
• Audio:
  • Fix a bug where Player.getState() never transitioned to STATE_ENDED when playing very short files (#538).
• Audio Offload:
  • Prepend Ogg ID Header and Comment Header Pages to bitstream for offloaded Opus playback in accordance with RFC 7845.
• Video:
  • H.265/HEVC: Fix parsing SPS short and long term reference picture info.
• Text:
  • CEA-608: Change cue truncation logic to only consider visible text. Previously indent and tab offset were included when limiting the cue length to 32 characters (which was technically correct by the spec) (#11019).
• IMA extension:
  • Bump IMA SDK version to 3.30.3.
• Session:
  • Add custom layout to the state of the controller and provide a getter to access it. When the custom layout changes, MediaController.Listener.onCustomLayoutChanged is called. Apps that want to send different custom layouts to different Media3 controller can do this in MediaSession.Callback.onConnect by using an AcceptedResultBuilder to make sure the custom layout is available to the controller when connection completes.
  • Fix cases where MediaLibraryServiceLegacyStub sent an error to a Result that didn't support this which produced an UnsupportedOperationException (#78).
  • Fix the way PlayerWrapper creates a VolumeProviderCompat by determining volumeControlType through both legacy commands (COMMAND_ADJUST_DEVICE_VOLUME and COMMAND_SET_DEVICE_VOLUME) and new commands (COMMAND_ADJUST_DEVICE_VOLUME_WITH_FLAGS and COMMAND_SET_DEVICE_VOLUME_WITH_FLAGS) (#554).

1.1.0

This release corresponds to the ExoPlayer 2.19.0 release.

This release contains the following changes since the 1.0.2 release:

• Common Library:
  • Add suppression reason for unsuitable audio route and play when ready change reason for suppressed too long. (#15).
  • Add commands to Player:
    • COMMAND_GET_METADATA
    • COMMAND_SET_PLAYLIST_METADATA
    • COMMAND_SET_DEVICE_VOLUME_WITH_FLAGS
    • COMMAND_ADJUST_DEVICE_VOLUME_WITH_FLAGS
  • Add overloaded methods to Player which allow users to specify volume flags:
    • void setDeviceVolume(int, int)
    • void increaseDeviceVolume(int)
    • void decreaseDeviceVolume(int)
    • void setDeviceMuted(boolean, int)
  • Add Builder for DeviceInfo and deprecate existing constructor.
  • Add DeviceInfo.routingControllerId to specify the routing controller ID for remote playbacks.
  • Add Player.replaceMediaItem(s) as a shortcut to adding and removing items at the same position (#8046).
• ExoPlayer:
  • Allow ExoPlayer to have control of device volume methods only if explicitly opted in. Use ExoPlayer.Builder.setDeviceVolumeControlEnabled to have access to:
    • getDeviceVolume()
    • isDeviceMuted()
    • setDeviceVolume(int) and setDeviceVolume(int, int)
    • increaseDeviceVolume(int) and increaseDeviceVolume(int, int)
    • decreaseDeviceVolume(int) and decreaseDeviceVolume(int, int)
  • Add FilteringMediaSource that allows to filter available track types from a MediaSource.
  • Add support for including Common Media Client Data (CMCD) in the outgoing requests of adaptive streaming formats DASH, HLS, and SmoothStreaming. The following fields, br, bl, cid, rtp, and sid, have been incorporated (#8699). API structure and API methods:
    • CMCD logging is disabled by default, use MediaSource.Factory.setCmcdConfigurationFactory(CmcdConfiguration.Factory cmcdConfigurationFactory) to enable it.
    • All keys are enabled by default, override CmcdConfiguration.RequestConfig.isKeyAllowed(String key) to filter out which keys are logged.
    • Override CmcdConfiguration.RequestConfig.getCustomData() to enable custom key logging.
  • Add additional action to manifest of main demo to make it easier to start the demo app with a custom *.exolist.json file (#439).
  • Add ExoPlayer.setVideoEffects() for using Effect during video playback.
  • Update SampleQueue to store sourceId as a long rather than an int. This changes the signatures of public methods SampleQueue.sourceId and SampleQueue.peekSourceId.
  • Add parameters to LoadControl methods shouldStartPlayback and onTracksSelected that allow associating these methods with the relevant MediaPeriod.
  • Change signature of ServerSideAdInsertionMediaSource.setAdPlaybackStates(Map<Object, AdPlaybackState>) by adding a timeline parameter that contains the periods with the UIDs used as keys in the map. This is required to avoid concurrency issues with multi-period live streams.
  • Deprecate EventDispatcher.withParameters(int windowIndex, @Nullable MediaPeriodId mediaPeriodId, long mediaTimeOffsetMs) and BaseMediaSource.createEventDispatcher(..., long mediaTimeOffsetMs). The variant of the methods without the mediaTimeOffsetUs can be called instead. Note that even for the deprecated variants, the offset is not anymore added to startTimeUs and endTimeUs of the MediaLoadData objects that are dispatched by the dispatcher.
  • Rename ExoTrackSelection.blacklist to excludeTrack and isBlacklisted to isTrackExcluded.
  • Fix inconsistent behavior between ExoPlayer.setMediaItem(s) and addMediaItem(s) when called on an empty playlist.
• Transformer:
  • Remove Transformer.Builder.setMediaSourceFactory(MediaSource.Factory). Use ExoPlayerAssetLoader.Factory(MediaSource.Factory) and Transformer.Builder.setAssetLoaderFactory(AssetLoader.Factory) instead.
  • Remove Transformer.startTransformation(MediaItem, ParcelFileDescriptor).
  • Fix a bug where transformation could get stuck (leading to muxer timeout) if the end of the video stream was signaled at the moment when an input frame was pending processing.
  • Query codecs via MediaCodecList instead of using findDecoder/EncoderForFormat utilities, to expand support.
  • Remove B-frame configuration in DefaultEncoderFactory because it doesn't work on some devices.
• Track selection:
  • Add DefaultTrackSelector.Parameters.allowInvalidateSelectionsForRendererCapabilitiesChange which is disabled by default. When enabled, the DefaultTrackSelector will trigger a new track selection when the renderer capabilities changed.
• Extractors:
  • Ogg: Fix bug when seeking in files with a long duration (#391).
  • FMP4: Fix issue where TimestampAdjuster initializes a wrong timestamp offset with metadata sample time from emsg atom (#356).
• Audio:
  • Fix bug where some playbacks fail when tunneling is enabled and AudioProcessors are active, e.g. for gapless trimming (#10847).
  • Encapsulate Opus frames in Ogg packets in direct playbacks (offload).
  • Extrapolate current position during sleep with offload scheduling.
  • Add Renderer.release() and AudioSink.release() for releasing the resources at the end of player's lifecycle.
  • Listen to audio capabilities changes in DefaultAudioSink. Add a required parameter context in the constructor of DefaultAudioSink, with which the DefaultAudioSink will register as the listener to the AudioCapabilitiesReceiver and update its audioCapabilities property when informed with a capabilities change.
  • Propagate audio capabilities changes via a new event onAudioCapabilitiesChanged in AudioSink.Listener interface, and a new interface RendererCapabilities.Listener which triggers onRendererCapabilitiesChanged events.
  • Add ChannelMixingAudioProcessor for applying scaling/mixing to audio channels.
  • Add new int value DISCARD_REASON_AUDIO_BYPASS_POSSIBLE to DecoderDiscardReasons to discard audio decoder when bypass mode is possible after audio capabilities change.
  • Add direct playback support for DTS Express and DTS:X (#335).
• Video:
  • Make MediaCodecVideoRenderer report a VideoSize with a width and height of 0 when the renderer is disabled. Player.Listener.onVideoSizeChanged is called accordingly when Player.getVideoSize() changes. With this change, ExoPlayer's video size with MediaCodecVideoRenderer has a width and height of 0 when Player.getCurrentTracks does not support video, or the size of the supported video track is not yet determined.
• DRM:
  • Reduce the visibility of several internal-only methods on DefaultDrmSession that aren't expected to be called from outside the DRM package:
    • void onMediaDrmEvent(int)
    • void provision()
    • void onProvisionCompleted()
    • onProvisionError(Exception, boolean)
• Muxer:
  • Add a new muxer library which can be used to create an MP4 container file.
• IMqA extension:
  • Enable multi-period live DASH streams for DAI. Please note that the current implementation does not yet support seeking in live streams (#10912).
  • Fix a bug where a new ad group is inserted in live streams because the calculated content position in consecutive timelines varies slightly.
• Session:
  • Add helper method MediaSession.getControllerForCurrentRequest to obtain information about the controller that is currently calling aPlayer method.
  • Add androidx.media3.session.MediaButtonReceiver to enable apps to implement playback resumption with media button events sent by, for example, a Bluetooth headset (#167).
  • Add default implementation to MediaSession.Callback.onAddMediaItems to allow requested MediaItems to be passed onto Player if they have LocalConfiguration (e.g. URI) (#282).
  • Add "seek to previous" and "seek to next" command buttons on compact media notification view by default for Android 12 and below (#410).
• UI:
  • Add Util methods shouldShowPlayButton and handlePlayPauseButtonAction to write custom UI elements with a play/pause button.
• RTSP Extension:
  • For MPEG4-LATM, use default profile-level-id value if absent in Describe Response SDP message (#302).
  • Use base Uri for relative path resolution from the RTSP session if present in DESCRIBE response header (#11160).
• DASH Extension:
  • Remove the media time offset from MediaLoadData.startTimeMs and MediaLoadData.endTimeMs for multi period DASH streams.
  • Fix a bug where re-preparing a multi-period live Dash media source produced a IndexOutOfBoundsException (#10838).
• HLS Extension:
  • Add HlsMediaSource.Factory.setTimestampAdjusterInitializationTimeoutMs(long) to set a timeout for the loading thread to wait for the TimestampAdjuster to initialize. If the initialization doesn't complete before the timeout, a PlaybackException is thro...
