Release notes

Sourced from androidx.media3:media3-cast's releases.

1.9.0 (2025-12-17)

• Common Library:
  • Update minSdk to 23 in line with other AndroidX libraries.
  • Add PlayerTransferState, which facilitates transferring the playback state across Player instances.
  • Add void mute() and void unmute() methods to Player that preserve and consequently restore Player's volume before and after setting it to zero.
  • Publish utility classes WakeLockManager, WifiLockManager, AudioFocusManager, AudioBecomingNoisyManager and StuckPlayerDetector previously used by ExoPlayer internally to allow reuse for other players (#1893).
  • Fix ForwardingPlayer listener handling when the underlying delegate player uses reference equality for comparing listener instances (#2675).
  • Add a Player.listenTo suspending extension function in the media3-common-ktx library that specifies the particular Player.Events that should be acted upon.
  • Fix a crash in BasePlayer.getBufferedPercentage resulting from integer overflow when the reported buffered position is implausibly much larger than the reported duration (#2750).
  • Fix auto-detection of TrackGroup track type by not ignoring custom sample MIME type and falling back to using the potentially wrong track type from the container MIME type (#2860).
• ExoPlayer:
  • Add a stuck player detection that triggers a StuckPlayerException player error if the player seems stuck. This happens in the following cases, where each default timeout can be configured in ExoPlayer.Builder if required:
    • After 10 minutes of STATE_BUFFERING while trying to play and no buffering progress.
    • After 10 seconds of STATE_READY while trying to play and no playback progress.
    • After 1 minute of STATE_READY beyond the declared duration without reaching the end of the item.
    • After 10 minutes with a playback suppression reason while trying to play.
  • Enable wake lock handling by default to fix issues with buffering during background playback. This is equivalent to setting ExoPlayer.Builder.setWakeMode to C.WAKE_MODE_LOCAL.
  • Add listening logic to automatically update the virtual device ID when a change is reported to the Context originally passed to ExoPlayer.Builder.
  • Add ExoPlayer.setVirtualDeviceId to manually update the virtual device ID obtained from the Context passed to ExoPlayer.Builder.
  • Ensure renderers don't consume data from the next playlist item more than 10 seconds before the end of the current item.
  • Add setSeekBackIncrementMs, setSeekForwardIncrementMs and setMaxSeekToPreviousPositionMs to ExoPlayer to update these settings after construction (#2736).
  • Add pre-caching functionality in DefaultPreloadManager. Apps now can return DefaultPreloadManager.PreloadStatus.specifiedRangeCached(startPositionMs, durationMs) or DefaultPreloadManager.PreloadStatus.specifiedRangeCached(durationMs) via TargetPreloadStatusControl.getTargetPreloadStatus(T rankingData) to indicate that a media item needs to be pre-cached.
  • Use pre-caching functionality of DefaultPreloadManager in shortform demo app.
  • Add DefaultLoadControl.Builder setters for local playback and adjust default values of DefaultLoadControl to work well with a wide range of local files.
  • Fix bug where setting an empty playlist can leave the player in STATE_READY or STATE_BUFFERING.
  • Enhance the preload manager APIs:
    • Add addMediaItems(List<MediaItem>, List<T>) and addMediaSources(List<MediaSource>, List<T>) that add the media items or media sources in batch, and automatically call invalidate() afterwards.
    • Add removeMediaItems((List<MediaItem>) and removeMediaSources(List<MediaSource>) that remove the media items or media sources in batch, and make sure that preload manager does not start to preload or continue preloading any of them after removal.
    • Allow DefaultPreloadManager.setCurrentPlayingIndex(int) to invalidate itself automatically. Apps don't need to call invalidate() explicitly anymore after updating the current playing index.
  • Add capability to skip keyframe reset for forward seeks within the same group of pictures while in scrubbing mode.
  • Add DefaultLoadControl.Builder.setPlayerTargetBufferBytes(String, int) for apps to set a value of target buffer bytes for a player with the specified playerName. The DefaultLoadControl can now make decisions of each player separately based on its own allocated bytes and target buffer bytes.
  • Add SkipInfo to the AdPlaybackState.AdGroup to carry skip information for each ad in the ad group.
  • Fix bug where calling removeMediaItems(List) during playing a post-roll created a crash (#2746).
  • Fix some stuttering in playlist playback where frames were mistakenly always set as the last sample and rendered.
  • Enable retry path if player fails to generate audio session ID (#2382, #2678).
  • Add support to control the total buffer bytes for the sources in DefaultPreloadManager to avoid total buffer bytes for preloading from growing arbitrarily. To use the default control logic, Apps can set the target buffer bytes for preloading via DefaultLoadControl.Builder.setPlayerTargetBufferBytes(String, int) for a playerName of PlayerId.Preload.name ("preload"), and inject the created DefaultLoadControl via DefaultPreloadManager.Builder.setLoadControl(LoadControl).
  • Add cloneAndSet(int, int) to ShuffleOrder with a default implementation (#2834).
  • Append content resume offset when skipping ad playback after seek adjustment or auto transition (#2484).
  • Add API to set and observe codec parameters for audio and video tracks. This feature is implemented for MediaCodec based renderers and requires API 29+.
    • Use ExoPlayer.setAudioCodecParameters() and ExoPlayer.setVideoCodecParameters() to apply parameters.
    • Use ExoPlayer.addAudioCodecParametersChangeListener() and ExoPlayer.addVideoCodecParametersChangeListener() to listen for changes. Observing vendor-specific keys requires API 31+.
  • Fix IllegalStateException caused by setting an empty media source after seeking to a non-zero position and then preparing the player with a non-empty media source.
  • Fix bug where seeking into other media items while in scrubbing mode could cause IllegalStateException.
  • Fix potential NullPointerException in DefaultPlaybackSessionManager (#2885).
  • Enable improvements in seeking performance for eligible videos.
  • Re-enable use of asynchronous decryption in MediaCodec on API 36+ where timeout issues with this platform API have been fixed (#1641).
  • Change the default value of MediaCodecVideoRenderer.experimentalSetLateThresholdToDropDecoderInputUs to 15ms and enable more efficient dropping of video frames before decoding for eligible videos.
  • Add maximum memory limit to the automatic memory calculation in DefaultLoadControl. This should only take effect if an excessive number of tracks get selected (#2860).
  • Fix bug where, if playing in a playlist or repeat mode, seeking in scrub mode near the end could cause a seek to the next media item.

  • Add a stuck player detection that triggers a StuckPlayerException player error if the player seems stuck. This happens in the following cases, where each default timeout can be configured in ExoPlayer.Builder if required:
    • After 10 minutes of STATE_BUFFERING while trying to play and no buffering progress.
    • After 10 seconds of STATE_READY while trying to play and no playback progress.
    • After 1 minute of STATE_READY beyond the declared duration without reaching the end of the item.
    • After 10 minutes with a playback suppression reason while trying to play.
  • Enable wake lock handling by default to fix issues with buffering during background playback. This is equivalent to setting ExoPlayer.Builder.setWakeMode to C.WAKE_MODE_LOCAL.
  • Add listening logic to automatically update the virtual device ID when a change is reported to the Context originally passed to ExoPlayer.Builder.
  • Add ExoPlayer.setVirtualDeviceId to manually update the virtual device ID obtained from the Context passed to ExoPlayer.Builder.
  • Ensure renderers don't consume data from the next playlist item more than 10 seconds before the end of the current item.
  • Add setSeekBackIncrementMs, setSeekForwardIncrementMs and setMaxSeekToPreviousPositionMs to ExoPlayer to update these settings after construction (#2736).
  • Add pre-caching functionality in DefaultPreloadManager. Apps now can return DefaultPreloadManager.PreloadStatus.specifiedRangeCached(startPositionMs, durationMs) or DefaultPreloadManager.PreloadStatus.specifiedRangeCached(durationMs) via TargetPreloadStatusControl.getTargetPreloadStatus(T rankingData) to indicate that a media item needs to be pre-cached.
  • Use pre-caching functionality of DefaultPreloadManager in shortform demo app.
  • Add DefaultLoadControl.Builder setters for local playback and adjust default values of DefaultLoadControl to work well with a wide range of local files.
  • Fix bug where setting an empty playlist can leave the player in STATE_READY or STATE_BUFFERING.
  • Enhance the preload manager APIs:
    • Add addMediaItems(List<MediaItem>, List<T>) and addMediaSources(List<MediaSource>, List<T>) that add the media items or media sources in batch, and automatically call invalidate() afterwards.
    • Add removeMediaItems((List<MediaItem>) and removeMediaSources(List<MediaSource>) that remove the media items or media sources in batch, and make sure that preload manager does not start to preload or continue preloading any of them after removal.
    • Allow DefaultPreloadManager.setCurrentPlayingIndex(int) to invalidate itself automatically. Apps don't need to call invalidate() explicitly anymore after updating the current playing index.
  • Add capability to skip keyframe reset for forward seeks within the same group of pictures while in scrubbing mode.
  • Add DefaultLoadControl.Builder.setPlayerTargetBufferBytes(String, int) for apps to set a value of target buffer bytes for a player with the specified playerName. The DefaultLoadControl can now make decisions of each player separately based on its own allocated bytes and target buffer bytes.
  • Add SkipInfo to the AdPlaybackState.AdGroup to carry skip information for each ad in the ad group.
  • Fix bug where calling removeMediaItems(List) during playing a post-roll created a crash (#2746).
  • Fix some stuttering in playlist playback where frames were mistakenly always set as the last sample and rendered.
  • Enable retry path if player fails to generate audio session ID (#2382, #2678).
  • Add support to control the total buffer bytes for the sources in DefaultPreloadManager to avoid total buffer bytes for preloading from growing arbitrarily. To use the default control logic, Apps can set the target buffer bytes for preloading via DefaultLoadControl.Builder.setPlayerTargetBufferBytes(String, int) for a playerName of PlayerId.Preload.name ("preload"), and inject the created DefaultLoadControl via DefaultPreloadManager.Builder.setLoadControl(LoadControl).
  • Add cloneAndSet(int, int) to ShuffleOrder with a default implementation (#2834).
  • Append content resume offset when skipping ad playback after seek adjustment or auto transition (#2484).
  • Add API to set and observe codec parameters for audio and video tracks. This feature is implemented for MediaCodec based renderers and requires API 29+.
    • Use ExoPlayer.setAudioCodecParameters() and ExoPlayer.setVideoCodecParameters() to apply parameters.
    • Use ExoPlayer.addAudioCodecParametersChangeListener() and ExoPlayer.addVideoCodecParametersChangeListener() to listen for changes. Observing vendor-specific keys requires API 31+.
  • Fix IllegalStateException caused by setting an empty media source after seeking to a non-zero position and then preparing the player with a non-empty media source.
  • Fix bug where seeking into other media items while in scrubbing mode could cause IllegalStateException.
  • Fix potential NullPointerException in DefaultPlaybackSessionManager (#2885).
  • Enable improvements in seeking performance for eligible videos.
  • Re-enable use of asynchronous decryption in MediaCodec on API 36+ where timeout issues with this platform API have been fixed (#1641).
  • Change the default value of MediaCodecVideoRenderer.experimentalSetLateThresholdToDropDecoderInputUs to 15ms and enable more efficient dropping of video frames before decoding for eligible videos.
  • Add maximum memory limit to the automatic memory calculation in DefaultLoadControl. This should only take effect if an excessive number of tracks get selected (#2860).
  • Fix bug where, if playing in a playlist or repeat mode, seeking in scrub mode near the end could cause a seek to the next media item.

Changelog

Sourced from androidx.media3:media3-datasource-okhttp's changelog.

1.9.0 (2025-12-17)

• Common Library:
  • Update minSdk to 23 in line with other AndroidX libraries.
  • Add PlayerTransferState, which facilitates transferring the playback state across Player instances.
  • Add void mute() and void unmute() methods to Player that preserve and consequently restore Player's volume before and after setting it to zero.
  • Publish utility classes WakeLockManager, WifiLockManager, AudioFocusManager, AudioBecomingNoisyManager and StuckPlayerDetector previously used by ExoPlayer internally to allow reuse for other players (#1893).
  • Fix ForwardingPlayer listener handling when the underlying delegate player uses reference equality for comparing listener instances (#2675).
  • Add a Player.listenTo suspending extension function in the media3-common-ktx library that specifies the particular Player.Events that should be acted upon.
  • Fix a crash in BasePlayer.getBufferedPercentage resulting from integer overflow when the reported buffered position is implausibly much larger than the reported duration (#2750).
  • Fix auto-detection of TrackGroup track type by not ignoring custom sample MIME type and falling back to using the potentially wrong track type from the container MIME type (#2860).
