Interface HlsPlaylistTracker

  • All Known Implementing Classes:
    DefaultHlsPlaylistTracker

    @Deprecated
    public interface HlsPlaylistTracker
    Deprecated.
    com.google.android.exoplayer2 is deprecated. Please migrate to androidx.media3 (which contains the same ExoPlayer code). See the migration guide for more details, including a script to help with the migration.
    Tracks playlists associated to an HLS stream and provides snapshots.

    The playlist tracker is responsible for exposing the seeking window, which is defined by the segments that one of the playlists exposes. This playlist is called primary and needs to be periodically refreshed in the case of live streams. Note that the primary playlist is one of the media playlists while the multivariant playlist is an optional kind of playlist defined by the HLS specification (RFC 8216).

    Playlist loads might encounter errors. The tracker may choose to exclude them to ensure a primary playlist is always available.
