[1.1.1.2011003]

Added

[1.1.0.2011003]

  • ExoPlayer: 2.11.3
  • Support multiple playback. Check out docs and recipe for more information.
  • Experimental manual playback. Read more here.
  • Add method Kohii.createControlDispatcher(Playback). Read more here.
  • Introduce PlayableObserver, Read more here.
  • Introduce activeLifecycleState setting for the Manager. Default to State.STARTED. All the playbacks in a Manager can be played only if the lifecycle state of the Manager is at least this value.
  • Experimental PlayerParameters, NetworkTypeChangeListener: the callback from a NetworkTypeChangeListener needs to return a PlayerParameters value so that the player can switch the video/audio quality, resolution, etc.
  • Deprecate the VideoSize. Its value is no longer used anymore in the library.
  • Experimental initialPlaybackInfo setting for the Binder. Setting this value will allow the Playback to start from a specific PlaybackInfo value.
  • Experimental releaseOnInActive setting for the Binder. Setting this to false will let the Playback keep its state when it is inactive, but not yet detached from the Manager.
  • Add method Playback.Controller.setupRenderer(Playback, Any?) and Playback.Controller.teardownRenderer(Playback, Any?). Client can configure the renderer with custom manual control logic.
  • Support Playback locking: if a Playback is locked, it will still be selected but will not be played.
  • Add ExoPlayerCache to the kohii-exoplayer package. It can be used to obtain a pre-built Cache easily.
  • Add TrackSelectorFactory, LoadControlFactory to the kohii-exoplayer package.
  • Add ExoPlayerConfig to gather most of the detailed setting for a SimpleExoPlayer instance.
  • Add createKohii convenient methods to easily create Kohii instance with custom parameters.
  • Add Engine.lock* and Engine.unlock* methods to support manual lock/unlock an Activity/Manager/Bucket or Playback.
  • Add a simple demonstration that builds TikTok-alike UI/UX: source code.
