Download

maven

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.github.slashrootv200</groupId>
  <artifactId>exo-player-fragment-lib</artifactId>
  <version>0.0.3</version>
  <type>pom</type>
</dependency>

gradle

compile 'com.github.slashrootv200:exo-player-fragment-lib:0.0.3'

Configuration

If you don't want the track selection for video, audio, text to be shown on the ExoPlayerFragment then override these boolean resources

res/values/{some_file_name_of_your_choice}.xml

<bool name="exo_fragment_lib_show_video_selector">true</bool>
<bool name="exo_fragment_lib_show_audio_selector">false</bool>
<bool name="exo_fragment_lib_show_text_selector">false</bool>

By default all the values are true so you will see all the three choices if they are available.

Usage

Example: In onCreate of an Activity.

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
  super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
  setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
  if (savedInstanceState == null) {
    Uri videoUri = Uri.parse("http://playertest.longtailvideo.com/adaptive/oceans_aes/oceans_aes.m3u8");
    String videoTitle = "Sample Video";
    mExoPlayerFragment = ExoPlayerFragment.newInstance(videoUri, videoTitle);
    getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
        .add(R.id.main_container, mExoPlayerFragment, ExoPlayerFragment.TAG)
        .commit();
  }
}

If you do not have any Base Activity class then you can also use BaseExoPlayerActivity.java as base class for your Activity which contains the Exo player. Please refer the demo app in the git repository for more information.

ExoPlayerFragment can be instantiated in using one of the four static methods:

1. ExoPlayerFragment.newInstance(Uri uri)-> uri = video uri
2. ExoPlayerFragment.newInstance(Uri uri, String videoTitle)-> videoTitle = video title
3. ExoPlayerFragment.newInstance(Uri uri, int dialogTheme)-> dialogTheme = theme resource Id for the dialogs created for track selection
4. ExoPlayerFragment.newInstance(Uri uri, String videoTitle, int dialogTheme)-> videoTitle = video title and dialogTheme = theme resource Id for the dialogs created for track selection

Instead of passing int dialogTheme you can also override theme by name ExoPlayerFragmentTrackSelectionDialogTheme in your application's styles.xml to override the dialog theme
