Reproduction steps
Reproduction project: repro.zip
I created PlaybackService by mirroring the example from website:
class PlaybackService : MediaSessionService() {
private var mediaSession: MediaSession? = null
override fun onCreate() {
super.onCreate()
val player = ExoPlayer.Builder(this)
.setMediaSourceFactory(
DefaultMediaSourceFactory(this)
.setDataSourceFactory(
DefaultDataSource.Factory(
this,
OkHttpDataSource.Factory(OkHttpClient.Builder().build())
)
)
)
.build()
player.addAnalyticsListener(EventLogger())
mediaSession = MediaSession
.Builder(this, player)
.build()
}
override fun onGetSession(controllerInfo: MediaSession.ControllerInfo) = mediaSession
override fun onDestroy() {
mediaSession?.run {
player.release()
release()
mediaSession = null
}
super.onDestroy()
}
}Then i setup MediaController in Activity like this:
override fun onStart() {
super.onStart()
val sessionToken = SessionToken(this@MainActivity, ComponentName(this@MainActivity, PlaybackService::class.java))
val controllerFuture = MediaController.Builder(this, sessionToken).buildAsync()
controllerFuture.addListener(
{ mediaController = controllerFuture.get() },
MoreExecutors.directExecutor()
)
}Then i try to set new item to play like this:
mediaController?.let {
it.setMediaItem(
MediaItem.Builder()
.setUri("https://demo.unified-streaming.com/k8s/features/stable/video/tears-of-steel/tears-of-steel.ism/.m3u8")
.setMediaId("id")
.setMediaMetadata(
MediaMetadata.Builder()
.setTitle("Test title")
.setArtist("Test artist")
.setArtworkUri("https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1679663877752-c00ad7f1c5c5?ixlib=rb-4.0.3&ixid=MnwxMjA3fDB8MHxwaG90by1wYWdlfHx8fGVufDB8fHx8&auto=format&fit=crop&w=2940&q=80".toUri())
.build()
)
.build()
)
it.prepare()
it.play()
}In attached reproduction app you can click "Play by service" and literally nothing happens (logs are empty too, even with EventLogger setup. It's seems like the command passed through, but the playback never started.
Playing via local exoplayer works properly as presented in the "Play locally" button
Expected result
I should be able to set new media item with HLS content via MediaController
Actual result
Nothing happens, log is empty. Player have no error. It seems like after trying to play item player instantly goes to ENDED state without particular reason
