Provides support for HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) content.
Adding a dependency to this module is all that's required to enable playback of
HLS MediaItems added to an ExoPlayer or SimpleExoPlayer in their default
configurations. Internally, DefaultMediaSourceFactory will automatically
detect the presence of the module and convert HLS MediaItems into
HlsMediaSource instances for playback.
Similarly, a DownloadManager in its default configuration will use
DefaultDownloaderFactory, which will automatically detect the presence of
the module and build HlsDownloader instances to download HLS content.
For advanced playback use cases, applications can build HlsMediaSource
instances and pass them directly to the player. For advanced download use cases,
HlsDownloader can be used directly.
