Release Notes

Tencent/MMKV (com.tencent:mmkv)

v2.2.4

This is a hotfix release mainly for iOS/macOS CocoaPods users.

Changes for All platforms

• Improve the performance of MMBuffer a little bit in some cases.

iOS/macOS

• Make MMKV and MMKVCore podspec define modules.

v2.2.3

This is a feature release that brings full desktop support to Flutter. It also includes key bug fixes and enhancements for Android and other platforms.

Flutter

• Added Full Desktop Support: MMKV for Flutter now officially supports Windows, macOS, and Linux.
• Example App: The example application has been updated to run on all new desktop platforms.

Android

• Feature: Added MMKVHandler.getNativeLogHandler() to allow native handling of MMKV logs from C++ code, improving performance.
• Fix: Corrected an integer overflow bug where a native memory address exceeding Long.MAX_VALUE was misinterpreted as a negative number.
• Fix: Prevented potential memory overflow by ensuring JNI local references are deleted after use.
• Fix: Fixed an issue where directories for special relative paths were not being created correctly.
• Enhancement: Improved the thread-safety of the callback handler to prevent crashes.

iOS/macOS

• Fix: Resolved a build error on Apple platforms that occurred when the MMKV_APPLE flag was not set.
• Fix: Addressed a naming conflict in the Swift implementation.

Windows

• Fix: Corrected character encoding issues in the Win32 demo by converting files to UTF-8.

v2.2.2

This is a hot fix version mainly for Android/Linux platforms. It’s highly recommended for v2.2.0~v2.2.1 users.

Changes for All platforms

• Improve file lock consistency for Mayfly FD MMKV instances.

Android

• Fix a potential ANR on multi-process mode MMKV init/creation.

POSIX

• Fix a potential ANR on multi-process mode MMKV init/creation on Linux.

iOS/macOS

• Retain the callback handler to prevent a potential short-lived callback handler from crashing.

Win32

• Improve efficiency on MMKV instance init/creation.

v2.2.1

Changes for All platforms

• Add importFrom().

Android

• Fix a bug on initialization.

v2.2.0

We introduce the Mayfly FD (short-lived file descriptor) enhancement, reducing MMKV's fd footprint by half and more. For a single-process mode MMKV instance, the fd footprint is reduced to zero (except Android/OHOS, details below). For a multi-process mode MMKV instance, the fd footprint is reduced by half, for we still need a long-lived fd to inter-process lock the shared memory.

Changes for All platforms

• Add Mayfly FD (short-lived file descriptor) enhancement.
• Improve multi-process access efficiency by about 20%.
• Add checkExist() to check if a MMKV instance exists on disk.
• Drop deprecated armv7 AES hardware acceleration.

Android

• Reduce the fd footprint by half. For a single-process mode MMKV instance, we still need a long-lived fd to support the process-mode checker and legacy name upgrading. In the far future, when all legacy names have been upgraded, we might drop the long-lived fd like other platforms.
• Upgrade Android compileSdk/targetSdk to 35, NDK to 28.1, Java to 11, Gradle to 8.11.1, and AGP to 8.9.2.

HarmonyOS NEXT

• Reduce the fd footprint by half. For a single-process mode MMKV instance, we still need a long-lived fd to support the legacy name upgrading. In the far future, when all legacy names have been upgraded, we might drop the long-lived fd like other platforms.
• Drop checkProcessMode(), it’s never been used.
• Improve obfuscation configuration with relative path.

iOS

• Add +mmkvGroupPath to get the group folder for MMKV multi-process storage.

Flutter

• Add isFileValid().
• Add groupPath() on iOS.
• Fix checkContentChangedByOuterProcess() not working bug.

androidx/media (androidx.media3:media3-ui)

v1.8.0

Compare Source

This release includes the following changes since the
1.7.1 release:

• Common Library:
  • Add support for replacing the player in ForwardingSimpleBasePlayer.
• ExoPlayer:
  • Add getter for shuffle mode to the ExoPlayer interface
    (#​2522).
  • More clearly throw an exception if DefaultAudioSink is accessed from
    multiple threads. If this happens due to a call to
    RendererCapabilities.getFormatSupport outside of the player, make sure
    to call this method on the same thread as ExoPlayer's playback thread or
    use a different instance than the one used for playback
    (#​1191).
  • Fix bug where non-stereo audio formats on TVs may be marked as
    unsupported by DefaultTrackSelector.
  • Ensure the last frame is correctly rendered when using MediaCodec's
    DECODE_ONLY flag (which is enabled by default in scrubbing mode).
  • Add support for using the virtual device ID from the Context passed to
    ExoPlayer.Builder.
  • Enable dynamic scheduling by default in scrubbing mode.
  • Avoid unnecessary reload of a source when seeking to the end of an item.
  • Use MediaCodec.BUFFER_FLAG_DECODE_ONLY by default in scrubbing mode.
  • Throw IllegalStateException when PreloadMediaSource is played by an
    ExoPlayer with a playback thread that is different than the preload
    thread (#​2495).
  • Add cloneAndMove to ShuffleMode with a default implementation
    (#​2226).
  • Change default behavior of Renderer.getMinDurationToProgressUs to
    return a larger value if no call to render is required.
  • Fix bug where internal scheduling delayed last frame when seeking to the
    end while paused. For now, the bug fix only takes effect if
    ExoPlayer.Builder.experimentalSetDynamicSchedulingEnabled is enabled.
  • Add ExoPlayer.setScrubbingModeEnabled(boolean) method. This optimizes
    the player for many frequent seeks (for example, from a user dragging a
    scrubber bar around). The behavior of scrubbing mode can be customized
    with setScrubbingModeParameters(..) on ExoPlayer and
    ExoPlayer.Builder.
  • Allow customizing fractional seek tolerance in scrubbing mode.
  • Increase codec operating rate in scrubbing mode.
  • Fix bug where prepare errors in the content of AdsMediaSource may be
    never reported (#​2337).
  • Fix memory leak in MergingMediaSource, for example used when
    sideloading subtitles
    (#​2338).
  • Allow CmcdConfiguration.Factory to return null to disable CMCD
    logging for specific media items
    (#​2386).
  • Increase default image buffer size from 128kB (copy-paste mistake from
    text tracks) to 26MB, which is large enough for 50MP Ultra HDR images
    (#​2417).
  • Add PreCacheHelper that allows apps to pre-cache a single media with
    specified start position and duration.
  • Add support of preloading from specified position in
    DefaultPreloadManager.
• Transformer:
  • Add CodecDbLite that enables chipset specific optimizations of video
    encoding settings.
  • Add setEnableCodecDbLite flag to the DefaultEncoderFactory to enable
    CodecDB Lite settings optimization. By default, this flag is set to
    false.
  • Filling an initial gap (added via addGap()) with silent audio now
    requires explicitly setting experimentalSetForceAudioTrack(true) in
    EditedMediaItemSequence.Builder. If the gap is in the middle of the
    sequence, then this flag is not required.
  • Move Muxer interface from media3-transformer to media3-muxer.
  • Make setting MediaItem.Builder().setImageDuration(long) mandatory to
    import a media item as an image.
  • Add
    Transformer.Builder().experimentalSetMp4EditListTrimEnabled(boolean)
    which includes an MP4 edit list when trimming to instruct players to
    ignore samples between the key frame before the trim start point, and
    the trim start point.
  • Update Composition Demo app to use Kotlin and Jetpack Compose, and add a
    custom VideoCompositorSettings to arrange sequences into a 2x2 or PiP
    layout.
• Extractors:
  • Parse metadata from fragmented MP4 files
    (#​2084).
  • JPEG: Support motion photos that don't have an Exif segment at the start
    (#​2552).
  • Add support for seeking in fragmented MP4 with multiple sidx atoms.
    This behavior can be enabled using the FLAG_MERGE_FRAGMENTED_SIDX flag
    on FragmentedMp4Extractor
    (#​9373).
  • Ignore empty seek tables in FLAC files (including those containing only
    placeholder seek points), and fall back to binary search seeking if the
    duration of the file is known
    (#​2327).
  • Fix parsing of H.265 SEI units to fully skip unrecognized SEI types
    (#​2456).
  • Update WavExtractor to use the header extension's SubFormat data for
    the audio format when parsing a WAVE_FORMAT_EXTENSIBLE type file.
  • MP4: Add support for ipcm and fpcm boxes defining raw PCM audio
    tracks (64-bit floating point PCM is not supported).
  • MP4: Handle the rotation part of tkhd transformation matrices that
    both rotate and reflect the video. This ensures that reflected videos
    taken by the iPhone front facing camera display the right way up, but
    incorrectly reflected in the y-axis
    (#​2012).
  • MP3: Use duration and data size from unseekable Xing, VBRI and similar
    variable bitrate metadata when falling back to constant bitrate seeking
    due to FLAG_ENABLE_CONSTANT_BITRATE_SEEKING(_ALWAYS)
    (#​2194).
• Audio:
  • Fix bug where AnalyticsListener.onAudioPositionAdvancing is not called
    when the audio playback is started very close to the end of the media.
  • Add support for all linear PCM sample formats in
    ChannelMappingAudioProcessor and TrimmingAudioProcessor.
  • Add support for audio gaps in CompositionPlayer.
  • Remove spurious call to BaseAudioProcessor#flush() from
    BaseAudioProcessor#reset().
  • Allow constant power upmixing/downmixing in DefaultAudioMixer.
  • Make ChannelMappingAudioProcessor, TrimmingAudioProcessor and
    ToFloatPcmAudioProcessor public
    (#​2339).
  • Use AudioTrack#getUnderrunCount() in AudioTrackPositionTracker to
    detect underruns in DefaultAudioSink instead of best-effort
    estimation.
  • Improve audio timestamp smoothing for unexpected position drift from the
    audio output device.
  • Fix bug where A/V sync is broken for the first 10 seconds after resuming
    from pause when connected to Bluetooth devices.
  • Fix bug that AnalyticsListener.onAudioPositionAdvancing was not
    reporting the time when the audio started advancing but the time of the
    first measurement.
  • Fix recovery to multichannel audio after fallback to stereo audio on
    some devices (#​2258).
• Video:
  • Extend detached surface workaround to "lenovo" and "motorola" devices
    (#​2059).
  • Improve smooth video frame release at startup when audio samples don't
    start at exactly the requested position.
  • Extend detached surface workaround to "realme" devices
    (#​2059).
  • Add experimental ExoPlayer API to include the
    MediaCodec.BUFFER_FLAG_DECODE_ONLY flag when queuing decode-only input
    buffers. This flag will signal the decoder to skip the decode-only
    buffers thereby resulting in faster seeking. Enable it with
    DefaultRenderersFactory.experimentalSetEnableMediaCodecBufferDecodeOnlyFlag.
  • Improve codec performance checks for software video codecs. This may
    lead to some additional tracks being marked as EXCEEDS_CAPABILITIES.
  • Fix VP9 Widevine playback errors on some devices
    (#​2408).
• Text:
  • Add support for VobSub tracks in MP4 files
    (#​2510).
  • Fix a playback stall when a subtitle segment initially fails to load and
    later loads successfully, followed by several empty subtitle segments
    (#​2517).
  • Fix SSA and SubRip to display an in-progress cue when enabling subtitles
    (#​2309).
  • Fix playback getting stuck when switching from a stream with a subtitle
    error to a live stream with an empty subtitle track
    (#​2328).
  • Fix garbled CEA-608 subtitles when playing H.262 streams containing
    B-frames (#​2372).
  • Add support for SSA subtitles with CodecId = S_TEXT/SSA in Matroska
    files. Previously MatroskaExtractor only supported CodecId = S_TEXT/ASS which is meant to represent the 'advanced' (v4+) variant of
    SubStation Alpha subtitles (but ExoPlayer's parsing logic is the same
    for both variants)
    (#​2384).
  • Add support for the layer property in SubStation Alpha (SSA) subtitle
    files which is used to define the z-order of cues when more than one is
    shown on screen at the same time
    (#​2124).
• Metadata:
  • Added support for retrieving media duration and Timeline to
    MetadataRetriever and migrated it to an instance-based,
    AutoCloseable API. Use the new Builder to create an instance for a
    MediaItem, then call retrieveTrackGroups(), retrieveTimeline(),
    and retrieveDurationUs() to get ListenableFutures for the metadata.
    The previous static methods are now deprecated
    (#​2462).
• Image:
  • Limit decoded bitmaps to the display size in
    BitmapFactoryImageDecoder, to avoid an app crashing with Canvas: trying to draw too large bitmap. from PlayerView when trying to
    display very large (e.g. 50MP) images.
  • Change the signature of
    DefaultRenderersFactory.getImageDecoderFactory() to take a Context
    parameter.
  • Align the max bitmap output size used in CompositionPlayer with that
    already used in Transformer (meaning CompositionPlayer does not
    consider the display size when decoding bitmaps, unlike ExoPlayer).
• DRM:
  • Add new overload of OfflineLicenseHelper.newWidevineInstance accepting
    a MediaItem.DrmConfiguration so that HTTP request headers can be
    applied correctly
    (#​2169).
• Effect:
  • Add Presentation.createForShortSide(int) that creates a Presentation
    that ensures the shortest side always matches the given value,
    regardless of input orientation.
• Muxers:
  • Fix a bug where correct sample flags were not set for audio samples in
    fragmented MP4.
  • writeSampleData() API now uses muxer specific BufferInfo class
    instead of MediaCodec.BufferInfo.
  • Add Muxer.Factory#supportsWritingNegativeTimestampsInEditList which
    defaults to false.
• IMA extension:
  • Fix a bug where a load error in one ad may accidentally invalidate
    another ad group.
  • Fix bug where ad groups after the end of a VOD window stalled playback.
    Ads groups with a start time after the window are not enqueued into the
    MediaPeriodQueue anymore
    (#​2215).
• Session:
  • Fix bug where connections from third-party non-privileged Media3
    controllers are ignored.
  • Remove check for available commands when sending custom commands to a
    legacy MediaBrowserServiceCompat. This is in parity with the behavior
    of legacy controllers/browsers when connected to a legacy app.
  • Fix a bug that causes a player's first playback error to be incorrectly
    treated as a persistent custom exception. This prevents the application
    from recovering.
  • Fix bug where some controller changes that are not handled by the
    session may cause IllegalStateExceptions.
  • Fix bug where controller actions that are not handled by the session may
    leave the controller in an invalid state.
  • Fix StrictMode unsafe launch violation warning
    (#​2330).
  • Fix bug where calling setSessionExtras from the main thread when
    running the player from a different application thread then the main
    thread caused an IllegalStateException
    (#​2265).
  • Don't automatically show a notification if a player is set up with media
    items without preparing or playing them
    (#​2423#​2423). This behavior
    is configurable via
    MediaSessionService.setShowNotificationForIdlePlayer.
  • Add custom PlaybackException for all or selected controllers.
  • Fix bug where seeking in a live stream on a MediaController can cause
    an IllegalArgumentException.
  • For live streams, stop publishing a playback position and the ability to
    seek in the current item for platform media controllers, to avoid
    position artefacts in the Android Auto UI (and other controllers using
    this information from the platform media session)
    (#​1758).
  • Fix a bug where passing null into getLibraryRoot of a MediaBrowser
    connected to a legacy MediaBrowserServiceCompat produced a
    NullPointerException.
  • Fix a bug where sending custom actions, a search result or a getItem
    request crashed the legacy session app with a ClassNotFoundException.
  • Fix a bug where MediaItem.LocalConfiguration.uri was shared to the
    platform sessions's MediaMetadata. To intentionally share a URI to
    allow controllers to re-request the media, set
    MediaItem.RequestMetadata.mediaUri instead.
• UI:
  • Fix bug where PlayerSurface inside re-usable components like
    LazyColumn didn't work correctly
    (#​2493).
  • Fix a Compose bug which resulted in a gap between setting the initial
    button states and observing the change in state (e.g. icon shapes or
    being enabled). Any changes made to the Player outside of the
    observation period are now picked up
    (#​2313).
  • Add state holders and composables to the media3-ui-compose module for
    SeekBackButtonState and SeekForwardButtonState.
  • Add support for ExoPlayer's scrubbing mode to PlayerControlView. When
    enabled, this puts the player into scrubbing mode when the user starts
    dragging the scrubber bar, issues a player.seekTo call for every
    movement, and then exits scrubbing mode when the touch is lifted from
    the screen. This integration can be enabled with either
    time_bar_scrubbing_enabled = true in XML or the
    setTimeBarScrubbingEnabled(boolean) method from Java/Kotlin.
  • Make PlayerSurface accept a nullable Player argument.
• Downloads:
  • Add partial download support for progressive streams. Apps can prepare a
    progressive stream with DownloadHelper, and request a
    DownloadRequest from the helper with specifying the time-based media
    start and end positions that the download should cover. The returned
    DownloadRequest carries the resolved byte range, with which a
    ProgressiveDownloader can be created and download the content
    correspondingly.
  • Add DownloadHelper.Factory with which the static
    DownloadHelper.forMediaItem() methods are replaced.
  • Add Factory for SegmentDownloader implementations.
  • Add partial download support for adaptive streams. Apps can prepare an
    adaptive stream with DownloadHelper, and request a DownloadRequest
    from the helper with specifying the time-based media start and end
    positions that the download should cover. The returned DownloadRequest
    carries the resolved time range, with which a concrete
    SegmentDownloader can be created and download the content
    correspondingly.
• Cronet extension:
  • Add automatic cookie handling
    (#​5975).
• HLS extension:
  • Fix bug where HlsSampleStreamWrapper attempts to seek inside buffer
    when there are no chunks available in the buffer
    #​2598.
  • Fix bug where track selection changes after loading low-latency parts
    and preload hints can cause playback to get stuck or freeze
    (#​2299).
  • Prevent excessive reloads by waiting for half the target duration when
    CAN-BLOCK-RELOAD=YES is not honored by the server
    (#​2317).
  • Fix bug where playback was stalled when starting an interstitials stream
    before a mid roll and asset list resolution was attempted for the wrong
    ad (#​2558).
  • Fix playlist parsing to accept \f (form feed) in quoted string
    attribute values
    (#​2420).
  • Support updating interstitials with the same ID
    (#​2427).
  • Fix bug where playlist load errors are sometimes not propagated once a
    live stream runs out of segments to load
    (#​2401#​2401).
  • Group subtitle renditions by NAME tag, similar to how audio renditions
    are grouped already
    (#​1666).
  • Support X-ASSET-LIST and live streams with HlsInterstitialsAdsLoader.
• DASH extension:
  • Fix issue where trick-play adaptation set is merged with its main
    adaptation set to form an invalid TrackGroup
    (#​2148).
  • Fix bug where shortening a DASH period duration can throw an exception
    when samples beyond the new duration have already been read by the
    rendering pipeline
    (#​2440).
  • Fix bug where redirect wasn't followed when using CMCD query parameters
    (#​2475).
• RTSP extension:
  • Add support for RTP Aggregation Packet for H265 in accordance with RFC
    7798#4.4.2 (#​2413).
  • Fix RtspClient to use the location uri as provided when processing an
    HTTP 302 response
    (#​2398).
  • Add parsing support for SessionDescriptions containing lines with
    trailing whitespace characters
    (#​2357).
• Decoder extensions (FFmpeg, VP9, AV1, etc.):
  • Fix bug where
    DefaultTrackSelector.setAllowInvalidateSelectionsOnRendererCapabilitiesChange
    has no effect for audio decoder extensions
    (#​2258).
• Cast extension:
  • Add support for setVolume(), and getVolume()
    (#​2279).
  • Prevent CastPlayer from entering STATE_BUFFERING while the timeline is
    empty.
  • Add support for getDeviceVolume(), setDeviceVolume(),
    getDeviceMuted(), and setDeviceMuted()
    (#​2089).
• Test Utilities:
  • Add advance(player).untilPositionAtLeast and untilMediaItemIndex to
    TestPlayerRunHelper in order to advance the player until a specified
    position is reached. In most cases, these methods are more reliable than
    the existing untilPosition and untilStartOfMediaItem methods.
  • Move FakeDownloader to test-utils-robolectric module for reuse in
    other tests.
  • Removed transformer.TestUtil.addAudioDecoders(String...),
    transformer.TestUtil.addAudioEncoders(String...), and
    transformer.TestUtil.addAudioEncoders(ShadowMediaCodec.CodecConfig, String...). Use ShadowMediaCodecConfig to configure shadow encoders
    and decoders instead.
  • Replaced the "exotest" prefix with "media3" in codec names reported by
    ShadowMediaCodecConfig.
• Remove deprecated symbols:
  • Removed deprecated SegmentDownloader constructor
    SegmentDownloader(MediaItem, Parser<M>, CacheDataSource.Factory, Executor) and the corresponding constructors in its subclasses
    DashDownloader, HlsDownloader and SsDownloader.
  • Removed deprecated Player.hasNext(), Player.hasNextWindow(). Use
    Player.hasNextMediaItem() instead.
  • Removed deprecated Player.next(). Use Player.seekToNextMediaItem()
    instead.
  • Removed deprecated Player.seekToPreviousWindow(). Use
    Player.seekToPreviousMediaItem() instead.
  • Removed deprecated Player.seekToNextWindow(). Use
    Player.seekToNextMediaItem() instead.
  • Removed deprecated BaseAudioProcessor in exoplayer module. Use
    BaseAudioProcessor under common module.
  • Remove deprecated MediaCodecVideoRenderer constructor
    MediaCodecVideoRenderer(Context, MediaCodecAdapter.Factor, MediaCodecSelector, long, boolean, @​Nullable Handler, @​Nullable VideoRendererEventListener, int, float, @​Nullable VideoSinkProvider).

v1.7.1

This release has the same code as 1.6.1 and is being released to ensure it
appears as a 'newer' release than 1.7.0, which was an alpha release accidentally
tagged as stable (see below).

v1.7.0

This release should have been 1.7.0-alpha01, but was accidentally tagged
1.7.0 (i.e. stable) on maven.google.com. Please do not use it. Stay on
1.6.1 or upgrade to 1.7.1 (which has the same code as 1.6.1).

v1.6.1

Compare Source

This release includes the following changes since the
1.6.0 release:

• Common Library:
  • Add PlaybackParameters.withPitch(float) method for easily copying a
    PlaybackParameters with a new pitch value
    (#​2257).
• ExoPlayer:
  • Fix issue where media item transition fails due to recoverable renderer
    error during initialization of the next media item
    (#​2229).
  • Fix issue where ProgressiveMediaPeriod throws an
    IllegalStateException as PreloadMediaSource attempts to call its
    getBufferedDurationUs() before it is prepared
    (#​2315).
  • Fix sending CmcdData in manifest requests for DASH, HLS, and
    SmoothStreaming (#​2253).
  • Ensure AdPlaybackState.withAdDurationsUs(long[][]) can be used after
    ad groups have been removed. The user still needs to pass in an array of
    durations for removed ad groups which can be empty or null
    (#​2267).
• Extractors:
  • MP4: Parse alternate_group from the tkhd box and expose it as an
    Mp4AlternateGroupData entry in each track's Format.metadata
    (#​2242).
• Audio:
  • Fix offload issue where the position might get stuck when playing a
    playlist of short content
    (#​1920).
• Session:
  • Lower aggregation timeout for platform MediaSession callbacks from 500
    to 100 milliseconds and add an experimental setter to allow apps to
    configure this value.
  • Fix issue where notifications reappear after they have been dismissed by
    the user (#​2302).
  • Fix a bug where the session returned a single-item timeline when the
    wrapped player is actually empty. This happened when the wrapped player
    doesn't have COMMAND_GET_TIMELINE available while
    COMMAND_GET_CURRENT_MEDIA_ITEM is available and the wrapped player is
    empty (#​2320).
  • Fix a bug where calling
    MediaSessionService.setMediaNotificationProvider is silently ignored

    causing an assertion failure when processing encrypted media segments
    (#​2312).
• RTSP extension:
  • Add support for URI with RTSPT scheme as a way to configure the RTSP

    (#​2235).

v1.6.0

Compare Source

This release includes the following changes since the
1.5.1 release:

• Common Library:
  • Add AudioManagerCompat and AudioFocusRequestCompat to replace the
    equivalent classes in androidx.media.
  • Upgrade Kotlin from 1.9.20 to 2.0.20 and use Compose Compiler Gradle
    plugin. Upgrade KotlinX Coroutines library from 1.8.1 to 1.9.0.
  • Remove Format.toBundle(boolean excludeMetadata) method, use
    Format.toBundle() instead.
  • Fix bug in SimpleBasePlayer where setting a new
    currentMediaItemIndex in State after setPlaylist with null
MediaMetadata does not reevaluate the metadata
    (#​1940).
  • Change SimpleBasePlayer.State access from protected to public to make
    it easier to handle updates in other classes
    (#​2128).
• ExoPlayer:
  • Add MediaExtractorCompat, a new class that provides equivalent
    features to platform MediaExtractor.
  • Add experimental 'ExoPlayer' pre-warming support for playback using
    MediaCodecVideoRenderer. You can configure DefaultRenderersFactory
    through experimentalSetEnableMediaCodecVideoRendererPrewarming to
    provide a secondary MediaCodecVideoRenderer to ExoPlayer. If
    enabled, ExoPlayer pre-processes the video of consecutive media items
    during playback to reduce media item transition latency.
  • Reduce default values for bufferForPlaybackMs and
    bufferForPlaybackAfterRebufferMs in DefaultLoadControl to 1000 and
    2000 ms respectively.
  • Initialize DeviceInfo and device volume asynchronously (if enabled
    using setDeviceVolumeControlEnabled). These values aren't available
    instantly after ExoPlayer.Builder.build(), and Player.Listener
    notifies changes through onDeviceInfoChanged and
    onDeviceVolumeChanged.
  • Initial audio session id is no longer immediately available after
    creating the player. You can use
    AnalyticsListener.onAudioSessionIdChanged to listen to the initial
    update if required.
  • Consider language when selecting a video track. By default, select a
    'main' video track that matches the language of the selected audio
    track, if available. Explicit video language preferences can be
    expressed with
    TrackSelectionParameters.Builder.setPreferredVideoLanguage(s).
  • Add selectedAudioLanguage parameter to
    DefaultTrackSelector.selectVideoTrack() method.
  • Add retryCount parameter to MediaSourceEventListener.onLoadStarted
    and corresponding MediaSourceEventListener.EventDispatcher methods.
  • Fix bug where playlist items or periods in multi-period DASH streams
    with durations that don't match the actual content could cause frame
    freezes at the end of the item
    (#​1698).
  • Move BasePreloadManager.Listener to a top-level
    PreloadManagerListener.
  • RenderersFactory.createSecondaryRenderer can be implemented to provide
    secondary renderers for pre-warming. Pre-warming enables quicker media
    item transitions during playback.
  • Enable sending CmcdData for manifest requests in adaptive streaming
    formats DASH, HLS, and SmoothStreaming
    (#​1951).
  • Provide MediaCodecInfo of the codec that will be initialized in
    MediaCodecRenderer.onReadyToInitializeCodec
    (#​1963).
  • Change AdsMediaSource to allow the AdPlaybackStates to grow by
    appending ad groups. Invalid modifications are detected and throw an
    exception.
  • Fix issue where additional decode-only frames may be displayed in quick
    succession when transitioning to content media after a mid-roll ad.
  • Make DefaultRenderersFactory add two MetadataRenderer instances to
    enable apps to receive two different schemes of metadata by default.
  • Reevaluate whether the ongoing load of a chunk should be cancelled when
    playback is paused
    (#​1785).
  • Add option to ClippingMediaSource to allow clipping in unseekable
    media.
  • Fix bug where seeking with pre-warming could block following media item
    transition.
  • Fix a bug where ExoPlayer.isLoading() remains true while it has
    transitioned to STATE_IDLE or STATE_ENDED
    (#​2133).
  • Add lastRebufferRealtimeMs to LoadControl.Parameter
    (#​2113).
• Transformer:
  • Add support for transmuxing into alternative backward compatible
    formats.
  • Add support for transcoding and transmuxing Dolby Vision (profile 8)
    format.
  • Update parameters of VideoFrameProcessor.registerInputStream and
    VideoFrameProcessor.Listener.onInputStreamRegistered to use Format.
  • Generate HDR static metadata when using DefaultEncoderFactory.
  • Enable support for Android platform diagnostics using
    MediaMetricsManager. Transformer forwards editing events and
    performance data to the platform, which helps to provide system
    performance and debugging information on the device. This data may also
    be collected by Google
    if sharing usage and diagnostics data is enabled
    by the user of the device. Apps can opt-out of contributing to platform
    diagnostics for Transformer with
    Transformer.Builder.setUsePlatformDiagnostics(false).
  • Split InAppMuxer into InAppMp4Muxer and InAppFragmentedMp4Muxer.
    You use InAppMp4Muxer to produce a non-fragmented MP4 file, while
    InAppFragmentedMp4Muxer is for producing a fragmented MP4 file.
  • Move Muxer interface from media3-muxer to media3-transformer.
  • Add MediaProjectionAssetLoader, which provides media from a
    MediaProjection for screen recording, and add support for screen
    recording to the Transformer demo app.
  • Add #getInputFormat() to Codec interface.
  • Shift the responsibility to release the GlObjectsProvider onto the
    caller in DefaultVideoFrameProcessor and DefaultVideoCompositor when
    possible.
• Extractors:
  • AVI: Fix handling of files with constant bitrate compressed audio where
    the stream header stores the number of bytes instead of the number of
    chunks.
  • Fix handling of NAL units with lengths expressed in 1 or 2 bytes (rather
    than 4).
  • Fix ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException in MP4 edit lists when the edit
    list starts at a non-sync frame with no preceding sync frame
    (#​2062).
  • Fix issue where TS streams can get stuck on some devices
    (#​2069).
  • FLAC: Add support for 32-bit FLAC files. Previously these would fail to
    play with IllegalStateException: Playback stuck buffering and not loading (#​2197).
• Audio:
  • Fix onAudioPositionAdvancing to be called when playback resumes
    (previously it was called when playback was paused).
  • Don't bypass SonicAudioProcessor when SpeedChangingAudioProcessor is
    configured with default parameters.
  • Fix underflow in Sonic#getOutputSize() that could cause
    DefaultAudioSink to stall.
  • Fix MediaCodecAudioRenderer.getDurationToProgressUs() and
    DecoderAudioRenderer.getDurationToProgressUs() so that seeks correctly
    reset the provided durations.
  • Make androidx.media3.common.audio.SonicAudioProcessor final.
