[dependabot]

Bumps exoplayer from 2.13.2 to 2.18.0.

Release notes

Sourced from exoplayer's releases.

r2.17.1

This release corresponds to the AndroidX media3 1.0.0-alpha03 release.

• Audio:
  • Fix error checking audio capabilities for Dolby Atmos (E-AC3-JOC) in HLS.
• Extractors:
  • FMP4: Fix issue where emsg sample metadata could be output in the wrong order for streams containing both v0 and v1 emsg atoms (#9996).
• Text:
  • Fix the interaction of SingleSampleMediaSource.Factory.setTrackId and MediaItem.SubtitleConfiguration.Builder.setId to prioritise the SubtitleConfiguration field and fall back to the Factory value if it's not set (#10016).
• Ad playback:
  • Fix audio underruns between ad periods in live HLS SSAI streams.

r2.17.0

• Core library:
  • Sleep and retry when creating a MediaCodec instance fails. This works around an issue that occurs on some devices when switching a surface from a secure codec to another codec (#8696).
  • Add MediaCodecAdapter.getMetrics() to allow users obtain metrics data from MediaCodec (#9766).
  • Fix Maven dependency resolution (#8353).
  • Disable automatic speed adjustment for live streams that neither have low-latency features nor a user request setting the speed (#9329).
  • Rename DecoderCounters#inputBufferCount to queuedInputBufferCount.
  • Make SimpleExoPlayer.renderers private. Renderers can be accessed via ExoPlayer.getRenderer.
  • Updated some AnalyticsListener.EventFlags constant values to match values in Player.EventFlags.
  • Split AnalyticsCollector into an interface and default implementation to allow it to be stripped by R8 if an app doesn't need it.
• Track selection:
  • Support preferred video role flags in track selection (#9402).
  • Update video track selection logic to take preferred MIME types and role flags into account when selecting multiple video tracks for adaptation (#9519).
  • Update video and audio track selection logic to only choose formats for adaptive selections that have the same level of decoder and hardware support (#9565).
  • Update video track selection logic to prefer more efficient codecs if multiple codecs are supported by primary, hardware-accelerated decoders (#4835).
  • Prefer audio content preferences (for example, the "default" audio track or a track matching the system locale language) over technical track selection constraints (for example, preferred MIME type, or maximum channel count).
  • Prohibit duplicate TrackGroups in a TrackGroupArray. TrackGroups can always be made distinguishable by setting an id in the TrackGroup constructor. This fixes a crash when resuming playback after backgrounding the app with an active track override (#9718).
  • Amend logic in AdaptiveTrackSelection to allow a quality increase under sufficient network bandwidth even if playback is very close to the live edge (#9784).
• Video:
  • Fix decoder fallback logic for Dolby Vision to use a compatible H264/H265 decoder if needed.
• Audio:
  • Fix decoder fallback logic for Dolby Atmos (E-AC3-JOC) to use a compatible E-AC3 decoder if needed.
  • Change AudioCapabilities APIs to require passing explicitly AudioCapabilities.DEFAULT_AUDIO_CAPABILITIES instead of null.
  • Allow customization of the AudioTrack buffer size calculation by injecting an AudioTrackBufferSizeProvider to DefaultAudioSink (#8891).
  • Retry AudioTrack creation if the requested buffer size was > 1MB (#9712).
• Extractors:
  • Fix incorrect parsing of H.265 SPS NAL units (#9719).
  • Parse Vorbis Comments (including METADATA_BLOCK_PICTURE) in Ogg Opus and Ogg Vorbis files.
• Text:
  • Add a MediaItem.SubtitleConfiguration.id field which is propagated to the Format.id field of the subtitle track created from the configuration (#9673).
  • Add basic support for WebVTT subtitles in Matroska containers (#9886).
  • Prevent Cea708Decoder from reading more than the declared size of a service block.
• DRM:
  • Remove playbackLooper from DrmSessionManager.(pre)acquireSession. When a DrmSessionManager is used by an app in a custom MediaSource, the playbackLooper needs to be passed to DrmSessionManager.setPlayer instead.
• Ad playback / IMA:
  • Add support for IMA Dynamic Ad Insertion (DAI) (#8213).

Changelog

Sourced from exoplayer's changelog.

2.18.0 (2022-06-16)

This release corresponds to the AndroidX media3 1.0.0-beta01 release.

• Core library:
  • Enable support for Android platform diagnostics via MediaMetricsManager. ExoPlayer will forward playback 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 ExoPlayer with ExoPlayer.Builder.setUsePlatformDiagnostics(false).
  • Fix bug that tracks are reset too often when using MergingMediaSource, for example when side-loading subtitles and changing the selected subtitle mid-playback (#10248).
  • Stop detecting 5G-NSA network type on API 29 and 30. These playbacks will assume a 4G network.
  • Disallow passing null to MediaSource.Factory.setDrmSessionManagerProvider and MediaSource.Factory.setLoadErrorHandlingPolicy. Instances of DefaultDrmSessionManagerProvider and DefaultLoadErrorHandlingPolicy can be passed explicitly if required.
  • Add MediaItem.RequestMetadata to represent metadata needed to play media when the exact LocalConfiguration is not known. Also remove MediaMetadata.mediaUrl as this is now included in RequestMetadata.
  • Add Player.Command.COMMAND_SET_MEDIA_ITEM to enable players to allow setting a single item.
• Track selection:
  • Flatten TrackSelectionOverrides class into TrackSelectionParameters, and promote TrackSelectionOverride to a top level class.
  • Rename TracksInfo to Tracks and TracksInfo.TrackGroupInfo to Tracks.Group. Player.getCurrentTracksInfo and Player.Listener.onTracksInfoChanged have also been renamed to Player.getCurrentTracks and Player.Listener.onTracksChanged.
  • Change DefaultTrackSelector.buildUponParameters and DefaultTrackSelector.Parameters.buildUpon to return DefaultTrackSelector.Parameters.Builder instead of the deprecated DefaultTrackSelector.ParametersBuilder.
  • Add DefaultTrackSelector.Parameters.constrainAudioChannelCountToDeviceCapabilities which is enabled by default. When enabled, the DefaultTrackSelector will prefer audio tracks whose channel count does not exceed the device output capabilities. On handheld devices, the DefaultTrackSelector will prefer stereo/mono over multichannel audio formats, unless the multichannel format can be Spatialized
