Exoplayer midroll stuck when vast document is empty

[orhunkupeli7]

If vast document is empty player stucks.

Create an empty vast document for a midroll like:
<VAST xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="vast.xsd" version="3.0"/>

Hi @andrewlewis , Any updates on this bug. ?

[jazimm]

I'm experiencing the same issue when the response is empty. Rather than the empty ad being skipped and content resuming the player simply hangs.

[andrewlewis]

A fix for this is in review at the moment. Hopefully it will be on the development branch within the next couple of weeks. Thanks for your patience.

[andrewlewis]

Still working on this but it's likely to take a bit longer as it requires changes to how we handle ad timeline updates.

Hi @andrewlewis, This is blocking us from updating our current implementation to exoplayer v2 from v1, is there any update on this issue please?

[andrewlewis]

We plan to push an update to the development branch that should fix this later this week, or early next week. Sorry for the delay.
