• Common Library:
  • Update minSdk to 23 in line with other AndroidX libraries.
  • Add PlayerTransferState, which facilitates transferring the playback
    state across Player instances.
  • Add void mute() and void unmute() methods to Player that preserve
    and consequently restore Player's volume before and after setting it to
    zero.
  • Publish utility classes WakeLockManager, WifiLockManager,
    AudioFocusManager, AudioBecomingNoisyManager and
    StuckPlayerDetector previously used by ExoPlayer internally to allow
    reuse for other players
    (#​1893).
  • Fix ForwardingPlayer listener handling when the underlying delegate
    player uses reference equality for comparing listener instances
    (#​2675).
  • Add a Player.listenTo suspending extension function in the
    media3-common-ktx library that specifies the particular
    Player.Events that should be acted upon.
  • Fix a crash in BasePlayer.getBufferedPercentage resulting from integer
    overflow when the reported buffered position is implausibly much larger
    than the reported duration
    (#​2750).
  • Fix auto-detection of TrackGroup track type by not ignoring custom
    sample MIME type and falling back to using the potentially wrong track
    type from the container MIME type
    (#​2860).
• ExoPlayer:
  • Add a stuck player detection that triggers a StuckPlayerException
    player error if the player seems stuck. This happens in the following
    cases, where each default timeout can be configured in
    ExoPlayer.Builder if required:
    • After 10 minutes of STATE_BUFFERING while trying to play and no
      buffering progress.
    • After 10 seconds of STATE_READY while trying to play and no
      playback progress.
    • After 1 minute of STATE_READY beyond the declared duration without
      reaching the end of the item.
    • After 10 minutes with a playback suppression reason while trying to
      play.
  • Enable wake lock handling by default to fix issues with buffering during
    background playback. This is equivalent to setting
    ExoPlayer.Builder.setWakeMode to C.WAKE_MODE_LOCAL.
  • Add listening logic to automatically update the virtual device ID when a
    change is reported to the Context originally passed to
    ExoPlayer.Builder.
  • Add ExoPlayer.setVirtualDeviceId to manually update the virtual device
    ID obtained from the Context passed to ExoPlayer.Builder.
  • Ensure renderers don't consume data from the next playlist item more
    than 10 seconds before the end of the current item.
  • Add setSeekBackIncrementMs, setSeekForwardIncrementMs and
    setMaxSeekToPreviousPositionMs to ExoPlayer to update these settings
    after construction
    (#​2736).
  • Add pre-caching functionality in DefaultPreloadManager. Apps now can
    return
    DefaultPreloadManager.PreloadStatus.specifiedRangeCached(startPositionMs, durationMs) or
    DefaultPreloadManager.PreloadStatus.specifiedRangeCached(durationMs)
    via TargetPreloadStatusControl.getTargetPreloadStatus(T rankingData)
    to indicate that a media item needs to be pre-cached.
  • Use pre-caching functionality of DefaultPreloadManager in shortform
    demo app.
  • Add DefaultLoadControl.Builder setters for local playback and adjust
    default values of DefaultLoadControl to work well with a wide range of
    local files.
  • Fix bug where setting an empty playlist can leave the player in
    STATE_READY or STATE_BUFFERING.
  • Enhance the preload manager APIs:
    • Add addMediaItems(List<MediaItem>, List<T>) and
      addMediaSources(List<MediaSource>, List<T>) that add the media
      items or media sources in batch, and automatically call
      invalidate() afterwards.
    • Add removeMediaItems((List<MediaItem>) and
      removeMediaSources(List<MediaSource>) that remove the media items
      or media sources in batch, and make sure that preload manager does
      not start to preload or continue preloading any of them after
      removal.
    • Allow DefaultPreloadManager.setCurrentPlayingIndex(int) to
      invalidate itself automatically. Apps don't need to call
      invalidate() explicitly anymore after updating the current playing
      index.
  • Add capability to skip keyframe reset for forward seeks within the same
    group of pictures while in scrubbing mode.
  • Add DefaultLoadControl.Builder.setPlayerTargetBufferBytes(String, int)
    for apps to set a value of target buffer bytes for a player with the
    specified playerName. The DefaultLoadControl can now make decisions
    of each player separately based on its own allocated bytes and target
    buffer bytes.
  • Add SkipInfo to the AdPlaybackState.AdGroup to carry skip
    information for each ad in the ad group.
  • Fix bug where calling removeMediaItems(List) during playing a
    post-roll created a crash
    (#​2746).
  • Fix some stuttering in playlist playback where frames were mistakenly
    always set as the last sample and rendered.
  • Enable retry path if player fails to generate audio session ID
    (#​2382,
    #​2678).
  • Add support to control the total buffer bytes for the sources in
    DefaultPreloadManager to avoid total buffer bytes for preloading from
    growing arbitrarily. To use the default control logic, Apps can set the
    target buffer bytes for preloading via
    DefaultLoadControl.Builder.setPlayerTargetBufferBytes(String, int) for
    a playerName of PlayerId.Preload.name ("preload"), and inject the
    created DefaultLoadControl via
    DefaultPreloadManager.Builder.setLoadControl(LoadControl).
  • Add cloneAndSet(int, int) to ShuffleOrder with a default
    implementation (#​2834).
  • Append content resume offset when skipping ad playback after seek
    adjustment or auto transition
    (#​2484).
  • Add API to set and observe codec parameters for audio and video tracks.
    This feature is implemented for MediaCodec based renderers and
    requires API 29+.
    • Use ExoPlayer.setAudioCodecParameters() and
      ExoPlayer.setVideoCodecParameters() to apply parameters.
    • Use ExoPlayer.addAudioCodecParametersChangeListener() and
      ExoPlayer.addVideoCodecParametersChangeListener() to listen for
      changes. Observing vendor-specific keys requires API 31+.
  • Fix IllegalStateException caused by setting an empty media source
    after seeking to a non-zero position and then preparing the player with
    a non-empty media source.
  • Fix bug where seeking into other media items while in scrubbing mode
    could cause IllegalStateException.
  • Fix potential NullPointerException in DefaultPlaybackSessionManager
    (#​2885).
  • Enable improvements in seeking performance for eligible videos.
  • Re-enable use of asynchronous decryption in MediaCodec on API 36+ where
    timeout issues with this platform API have been fixed
    (#​1641).
  • Change the default value of
    MediaCodecVideoRenderer.experimentalSetLateThresholdToDropDecoderInputUs
    to 15ms and enable more efficient dropping of video frames before
    decoding for eligible videos.
  • Add maximum memory limit to the automatic memory calculation in
    DefaultLoadControl. This should only take effect if an excessive
    number of tracks get selected
    (#​2860).
  • Fix bug where, if playing in a playlist or repeat mode, seeking in scrub
    mode near the end could cause a seek to the next media item.
• CompositionPlayer:
  • Publish CompositionPlayer under a new @ExperimentalApi annotation to
    indicate it is available for experimentation, but is still under
    development. Some APIs are likely to change significantly in future
    releases, and there are known issues and limitations with some use-cases
    (some undocumented).
  • Add support for COMMAND_SET_AUDIO_ATTRIBUTES and audio focus handling
    in CompositionPlayer.
  • Add support for speed changing in secondary sequences in
    CompositionPlayer.
  • Add support for EditedMediaItem.removeVideo.
• Transformer:
  • Use InAppMp4Muxer as default muxer.
  • Add EditedMediaItem.Builder#setSpeed() and deprecate
    Effects#createExperimentalSpeedChangingEffects().
  • Replace forceAudioTrack and forceVideoTrack with trackTypes in
    EditedMediaItemSequence.
• Track Selection:
  • Add TrackSelectionParameters.selectTextByDefault to prefer the
    selection of any text track without specifying other more specific
    preferences.
  • Add preferredVideoLabels, preferredAudioLabels and
    preferredTextLabels in TrackSelectionParameters to specify a
    preference for tracks with a specific label, for example those read from
    HLS NAME tags (#​1666).
• Extractors:
  • FLAC: Tighten header detection to reduce the chance of finding spurious
    headers in the encoded FLAC data, resulting in decoding errors
    (#​558).
  • MP3: Allow gaps between (and before) ID3 tags at the beginning of MP3
    files (#​811,
    #​5718).
  • MP3: Increase sniffing limit to 128kB to match the existing search limit
    for a sync byte
    (#​2713).
  • MP3: Change FLAG_ENABLE_INDEX_SEEKING to prefer seeking information
    from metadata headers (like Xing and VBRI) when available, falling back
    to index-based seeking if no other seeking information is present. This
    improves performance for files with seeking metadata
    (#​2839).
  • MP3: Change Mp3Extractor to default to a constant bitrate (CBR)
    assumption when no seeking metadata (e.g., Xing, VBRI) is found, even
    when FLAG_ENABLE_INDEX_SEEKING is set. This is based on the MP3
    specification's history, where CBR was standard and VBR requires
    explicit headers. This improves immediate seekability for files without
    metadata at the cost of potential accuracy for VBR files lacking
    headers. Index seeking is now used as a fallback if the CBR assumption
    is not seekable (e.g., for streams of unknown length)
    (#​2848).
  • MP4: Disambiguate between audio/mpeg (MP3), audio/mpeg-L1 and
    audio/mpeg-L2 MIME types by peeking the layer value of the first
    sample before emitting a track format from the extractor
    (#​2683).
  • MP4: Improve sniffing efficiency of very large files by assuming a
    stbl box larger than 1MB implies the file must be non-fragmented
    (#​2650).
  • MP4: Add support for ©mvn (movement name) and ©mvi (movement index)
    metadata, these are now emitted as TextInformationFrame objects in
    Format.metadata with IDs of MVNM and MVIN respectively
    (#​2754).
  • MP4: Ignore tracks with missing stsd box (instead of failing to parse
    the whole file).
  • Matroska: Add support for DTS-HD detection
    (#​6225).
  • Fix an issue in MatroskaExtractor where seeking could be inaccurate
    for files with multiple tracks. Cue points are now correctly associated
    with their respective tracks, leading to more precise seeking.
  • MPEG-TS: Fix IllegalArgumentException from ReorderingBufferQueue
    caused by PES packets with no timestamp
    (#​2764).
  • Add support for extracting HEIC Motion Photos. The HeifExtractor can
    now parse HEIC files containing embedded video and audio tracks.
• Inspector:
  • Introduced a new :media3-inspector module to serve as the dedicated
    home for media inspection utilities. This module now houses a new
    androidx.media3.inspector.MetadataRetriever, which will provide a
    unified API for both metadata and frame extraction. The existing
    androidx.media3.exoplayer.MetadataRetriever is now deprecated in favor
    of this new version.
  • Introduced androidx.media3.inspector.FrameExtractor, a new public API
    for frame extraction. This AutoCloseable class provides a way to
    extract frames with support for HDR video, video effects, and custom
    decoder selection. It should be created via its Builder for a specific
    MediaItem.
  • FrameExtractor: Add getThumbnail() to extract a representative
    thumbnail frame from a media file without requiring a specific
    timestamp.
  • Add androidx.media3.inspector.MediaExtractorCompat, a drop-in
    replacement for the platform's android.media.MediaExtractor that
    provides a way to extract raw, encoded media samples from a media file.
    The existing androidx.media3.exoplayer.MediaExtractorCompat is now
    deprecated in favor of this new class.
• Audio:
  • Make AudioProcessor instances aware of seeking.
  • Allow injecting the new AudioOutputProvider interface into
    DefaultAudioSink.Builder to support custom audio output paths. The
    default is AudioTrackAudioOutputProvider.
  • Handle seeks in GainProcessor.
  • Utilize AC-4 decoder profile and level capabilities in track format
    support assessment
    (#​2580).
  • Avoid potential delays caused by handling routing change callbacks at
    the beginning of playback
    (#​2646).
  • Allow codec reuse for EAC3, EAC3-JOC and AC-4 formats
    (#​1346).
  • Add support for float PCM samples in Sonic.
  • Add support for 16 bit PCM samples in ToFloatPcmAudioProcessor.
• Video:
  • Disable codec reuse for Dolby-Vision content with different profiles.
  • Re-enable workaround for wrongly reported performance points for secure
    codecs (#​2856).
• Text:
  • Fix parsing of CEA-6/708 subtitles in Dolby Vision content
    (#​2775).
• Image:
  • Fix ScrubbingMode issue where player gets stuck while scrubbing a DASH
    thumbnail track
    (#​2815).
• DRM:
  • Change the return type of MediaDrmCallback methods from byte[] to a
    new MediaDrmCallback.Response type, to allow returning extra optional
    information. This is a source breaking change, but breakages can be
    easily resolved by wrapping the previous byte[] return value with new Response before returning.
  • Add key request info like URL and latency to
    AnalyticsListener.onDrmKeysLoaded
    (#​1001).
  • Move provisioning request data from a URL parameter to the POST body.
• Effect:
  • Add Presentation.copyWithUnsetSideRoundedTo to round the unset output
    side when Presentation is created with a single side length.
• Muxers:
  • Add MediaMuxerCompat, a drop-in replacement for framework
    MediaMuxer.
  • Add MuxerUtil.createMotionPhotoFromJpegImageAndBmffVideo() to allow
    Motion Photo creation.
  • Add WebmMuxer to allow muxing of OPUS, VORBIS, VP8 and VP9
    media streams into a webm file format.
• IMA extension:
  • Removal of custom proguard rules, so that apps can use those released in
    IMA android archive instead.
  • Add ImaServerSideAdInsertionUriBuilder.setNetworkCode, a new API for
    setting the Google Ad Manager network code for the IMA SDK to handle ads
    identifiers as specified in Google Ad Manager settings. Network codes
    are optional but recommended for Full service stream requests. To find
    the network code, see
    this article.
  • Bump IMA dependency to 3.37.0 which requires enabling core library
    desugaring. This must also be enabled by dependent apps too. See IMA's
    config notes.
  • Support IMA DAI custom UI options in SSAI URI builder. Custom UI options
    for server side ad insertion include “Skippable” and “About This Ad”
    rendering support. The feature is currently available for selected
    publishers behind an allow list. This change also upgrades the IMA SDK
    version to 3.38.0
    (release notes)
    to access the custom UI options API.
  • Fix issue where content preparation error for content after an ad would
    be wrongly reported as an ad playback error
    (#​2656).
• Session:
  • Add new parameter to MediaSession.Callback.onPlaybackResumption to
    indicate if the call happens to gather information only or to start
    playback (#​1764).
  • Update MediaSession.ControllerInfo.isTrusted to also declare
    controllers from the own app as trusted
    (#​2542).
  • Add MediaSessionService.triggerNotificationUpdate to manually trigger
    a notification update
    (#​1833).
  • Add ProgressListener to custom command methods.
  • Change the default value for
    MediaLibrarySession.Builder.setLibraryErrorReplicationMode to non
    fatal.
  • Add a Context parameter to
    MediaButtonReceiver.onForegroundServiceStartNotAllowedException
    (#​2625).
  • Read the volume control ID from the platform PlaybackInfo instead of
    fetching it via binder. This ensures that playback type and volume
    control ID are read atomically and do match to each other.
  • Fix bug where ACTION_UP key events were filtered out before passing
    them to the callback for custom handling. This brings parity with what
    media1 did and the platform does
    (#​2637).
  • Fix bug where getCurrentTimeline() was called by PlayerWrapper even
    when the command isn't available
    (#​2665).
  • Fix bug where a message was left in the message queue of the main looper
    which caused a memory leak after the service terminated
    (#​2692).
  • When connected to a legacy session app with a MediaBrowser, custom
    commands are sent to the session only if the custom action is advertised
    as a custom action in PlaybackStateCompat of the legacy session. All
    other custom actions are sent to the service.
  • Implemented onAudioSessionIdChanged to notify media controllers when
    an audio session ID is set by the session
    (#​244).
  • Fix bug where KEYCODE_HEADSETHOOK did not start the player upon and
    media key event Intent arriving in onStartCommand(). This is fixed
    by handling 'KEYCODE_HEADSETHOOK' just like KEYCODE_MEDIA_PLAY_PAUSE
    (#​2816).
  • Fix a bug where Surface size was not communicated between the session
    and the controller, resulting in the failure to apply video effects in
    demo-session. If you are using a controller, this might be a breaking
    change if your player cannot handle a setVideoSurfaceHolder call.
  • Fix propagation of non-String CharSequence metadata values like
    span-styled strings
    (#​2853).
  • Add CommandButton.executeAction so that controllers can more easily
    trigger the intended action. Also allow to specify parameters for some
    player and session commands to define which action to trigger.
  • Add backwards-compatibility for CommandButton instances using
    Player.Command or non-custom SessionCommand to define their action.
    These are now correctly represented in platform media sessions, for
    example for System UI or Android Auto.
  • Fix issue where the same Bitmap is compressed multiple times when
    connecting a MediaController to a platform media session.
• UI:
  • Add ProgressStateWithTickInterval class and the corresponding
    rememberProgressStateWithTickInterval Composable to
    media3-ui-compose module. This state holder is used in demo-compose
    to display the current position and duration in text form.
  • Add MuteButtonState to ui-compose that handles muting of the
    Player volume. This state holder is used in demo-compose to display
    mute/unmute toggle button.
  • Add ProgressStateWithTickCount classes and the corresponding
    rememberProgressStateWithTickCount Composable to media3-ui-compose
    module. This state holder is used in demo-compose to display progress
    as a horizontal read-only progress bar.
  • Add ContentFrame Composable to media3-ui-compose which combines
    PlayerSurface management with aspect ratio resizing and covering with
    a shutter.
  • Work around a known API 34 platform bug causing stretched/cropped videos
    when using SurfaceView inside a Compose AndroidView and hence
    affecting ContentFrame and PlayerSurface Composables with
    SURFACE_TYPE_SURFACE_VIEW
    (#​1237,
    #​2811).
  • Create a new media3-ui-compose-material3 module and add
    Material3-themed Composables (PlayPauseButton, NextButton,
    PreviousButton, SeekBackButton, SeekForwardButton, RepeatButton,
    ShuffleButton, MuteButton) to it.
  • Add TimeText composable to media3-ui-compose-material3 for
    displaying player progress in a textual form. It can be configured to
    show the current position, duration, or remaining time.
  • Add support for placing a media route button in the PlayerView.
  • Use BidiFormatter to correctly display punctuation in RTL text
    subtitles (#​11214).
• HLS extension:
  • Parse HLS interstitial skip attributes.
  • Map skip control attributes from the HLS playlist and the asset list
    document into the AdPlaybackState for public access.
  • Fix bug where the start time of the playlist was dropped when the
    EXT-X-PROGRAM-START-DATE tag defining the start time was removed from a
    playlist (#​2760).
  • Use binary search to find the segment index of a given position in the
    playlist (#​2826).
  • Add HlsInterstitialsAdsLoader.skipCurrentAd() and
    skipCurrentAdGroup() and corresponding methods to skip ads and ad
    groups by index.
  • Add HlsInterstitialsAdsLoader.Listener.onAdStarted to report the start
    of an ad period
    (#​2859).
  • Accept space as a date/time separator in ISO 8601 date-time strings.
  • Properly handle fetching the next chunk for an HlsMediaPlaylist with
    no segments (#​2821).
  • Use the default start position for pre rolls with live streams.
• DASH extension:
  • Fix UnsupportedOperationException when playing DASH streams with a
    non-hierarchical data: URI manifest
    (#​2688).
  • Reset LiveConfiguration to the value provided by the MediaItem of
    the DashMediaSource when released and when the media item is updated
    by the user (#​2606).
  • Avoid crashes caused by invalid manifest updates that were not reported
    as player errors
    (#​2805).
• RTSP extension:
  • Handle error of missing RTP packets when processing fragmented NAL units
    for H264 and H265
    (#​2613).
• Decoder extensions (FFmpeg, VP9, AV1, etc.):
  • AV1 Extension: The AV1 software decoder now uses the high-performance
    dav1d library, replacing the previous libgav1 implementation for
    improved decoding speed.
  • FFmpeg extension: Fix an issue that prevented some FLAC files from
    playing by ensuring the STREAMINFO block is correctly parsed and
    passed to the decoder
    (#​2887).
• Cast extension:
  • Add CastPlayer.Builder, which enables CastPlayer to do both local
    and Cast playback. To keep the old CastPlayer behavior of supporting
    only Cast playback, you can use RemoteCastPlayer. The pre-existing
    CastPlayer constructors keep their old behavior, but are deprecated in
    favour of using the CastPlayer or RemoteCastPlayer builders instead.
  • Stop enforcing a non-null mime type in DefaultMediaItemConverter.
  • Use MediaItem.mediaMetadata.mediaType to infer the Cast MEDIA_TYPE to
    use in DefaultCastOptionsProvider#toMediaQueueItem, when available.
  • Enable remote to local transfers in DefaultCastOptionsProvider.
  • Add support for Cast in the Session demo.
  • Add support for displaying a media route button on a Composable UI.
  • Add support for displaying a media route button on an action bar menu.
  • Add support for displaying a media route button as a View UI.
• Test Utilities:
  • Add maximum time diff for the auto-advancing behavior of FakeClock. It
    defaults to 1 second, but is configurable via FakeClock.Builder.
  • Add maximum time diff between messages for
    RobolectricUtil.runMainLooperUntil (and runLooperUntil). It defaults
    to 1 second, but is configurable via new overloads of these methods.
  • Move CapturingRenderersFactory from test-utils to
    test-utils-robolectric.
• Remove deprecated symbols:
  • Remove deprecated DefaultPreloadManager constructor. Use
    DefaultPreloadManager.Builder instead.
  • Removed deprecated EditedMediaItemSequence constructors. Use
    EditedMediaItemSequence.Builder instead.
  • Remove BitmapFactoryImageDecoder.BitmapDecoder. Use
    ExternallyLoadedImageDecoder instead.
  • Remove deprecated ShadowMediaCodecConfig.forAllSupportedMimeTypes().
    Use ShadowMediaCodecConfig.withAllDefaultSupportedCodecs() instead.
  • Remove deprecated
    ShadowMediaCodecConfig.withNoDefaultSupportedMimeTypes(). Use
    ShadowMediaCodecConfig.withNoDefaultSupportedCodecs() instead.
