    Drawable.Callback, AccessibilityEventSource, KeyEvent.Callback, ViewManager, ViewParent, AdViewProvider
    @Deprecated
public class PlayerView
extends FrameLayout
implements AdViewProvider
    Deprecated.
    Use StyledPlayerView instead.
    A high level view for Player media playbacks. It displays video, subtitles and album art during playback, and displays playback controls using a PlayerControlView.

    A PlayerView can be customized by setting attributes (or calling corresponding methods), overriding drawables, overriding the view's layout file, or by specifying a custom view layout file.

    Attributes

    The following attributes can be set on a PlayerView when used in a layout XML file:
    • use_artwork - Whether artwork is used if available in audio streams.
    • default_artwork - Default artwork to use if no artwork available in audio streams.
    • use_controller - Whether the playback controls can be shown.
    • hide_on_touch - Whether the playback controls are hidden by touch events.
    • auto_show - Whether the playback controls are automatically shown when playback starts, pauses, ends, or fails. If set to false, the playback controls can be manually operated with showController() and hideController().
    • hide_during_ads - Whether the playback controls are hidden during ads. Controls are always shown during ads if they are enabled and the player is paused.
    • show_buffering - Whether the buffering spinner is displayed when the player is buffering. Valid values are never, when_playing and always.
    • resize_mode - Controls how video and album art is resized within the view. Valid values are fit, fixed_width, fixed_height, fill and zoom.
    • surface_type - The type of surface view used for video playbacks. Valid values are surface_view, texture_view, spherical_gl_surface_view, video_decoder_gl_surface_view and none. Using none is recommended for audio only applications, since creating the surface can be expensive. Using surface_view is recommended for video applications. Note, TextureView can only be used in a hardware accelerated window. When rendered in software, TextureView will draw nothing.
      • Corresponding method: None
      • Default: surface_view
    • shutter_background_color - The background color of the exo_shutter view.
    • keep_content_on_player_reset - Whether the currently displayed video frame or media artwork is kept visible when the player is reset.
    • player_layout_id - Specifies the id of the layout to be inflated. See below for more details.
      • Corresponding method: None
      • Default: R.layout.exo_player_view
    • controller_layout_id - Specifies the id of the layout resource to be inflated by the child PlayerControlView. See below for more details.
      • Corresponding method: None
      • Default: R.layout.exo_player_control_view
    • All attributes that can be set on PlayerControlView and DefaultTimeBar can also be set on a PlayerView, and will be propagated to the inflated PlayerControlView unless the layout is overridden to specify a custom exo_controller (see below).

    Overriding drawables

    The drawables used by PlayerControlView (with its default layout file) can be overridden by drawables with the same names defined in your application. See the PlayerControlView documentation for a list of drawables that can be overridden.

    Overriding the layout file

    To customize the layout of PlayerView throughout your app, or just for certain configurations, you can define exo_player_view.xml layout files in your application res/layout* directories. These layouts will override the one provided by the library, and will be inflated for use by PlayerView. The view identifies and binds its children by looking for the following ids:
    • exo_content_frame - A frame whose aspect ratio is resized based on the video or album art of the media being played, and the configured resize_mode. The video surface view is inflated into this frame as its first child.
    • exo_shutter - A view that's made visible when video should be hidden. This view is typically an opaque view that covers the video surface, thereby obscuring it when visible. Obscuring the surface in this way also helps to prevent flicker at the start of playback when surface_type="surface_view".
    • exo_buffering - A view that's made visible when the player is buffering. This view typically displays a buffering spinner or animation.
    • exo_subtitles - Displays subtitles.
    • exo_artwork - Displays album art.
    • exo_error_message - Displays an error message to the user if playback fails.
    • exo_controller_placeholder - A placeholder that's replaced with the inflated PlayerControlView. Ignored if an exo_controller view exists.
    • exo_controller - An already inflated PlayerControlView. Allows use of a custom extension of PlayerControlView. PlayerControlView and DefaultTimeBar attributes set on the PlayerView will not be automatically propagated through to this instance. If a view exists with this id, any exo_controller_placeholder view will be ignored.
    • exo_ad_overlay - A FrameLayout positioned on top of the player which is used to show ad UI (if applicable).
    • exo_overlay - A FrameLayout positioned on top of the player which the app can access via getOverlayFrameLayout(), provided for convenience.

    All child views are optional and so can be omitted if not required, however where defined they must be of the expected type.

    Specifying a custom layout file

    Defining your own exo_player_view.xml is useful to customize the layout of PlayerView throughout your application. It's also possible to customize the layout for a single instance in a layout file. This is achieved by setting the player_layout_id attribute on a PlayerView. This will cause the specified layout to be inflated instead of exo_player_view.xml for only the instance on which the attribute is set.

        Deprecated.
        Switches the view targeted by a given Player.
        Parameters:
        player - The player whose target view is being switched.
        oldPlayerView - The old view to detach from the player.
        newPlayerView - The new view to attach to the player.

      • getPlayer

        @Nullable
public Player getPlayer()
        Deprecated.
        Returns the player currently set on this view, or null if no player is set.

      • setPlayer

        public void setPlayer​(@Nullable
                      Player player)
        Deprecated.
        Sets the Player to use.

        To transition a Player from targeting one view to another, it's recommended to use switchTargetView(Player, PlayerView, PlayerView) rather than this method. If you do wish to use this method directly, be sure to attach the player to the new view before calling setPlayer(null) to detach it from the old one. This ordering is significantly more efficient and may allow for more seamless transitions.

        Parameters:
        player - The Player to use, or null to detach the current player. Only players which are accessed on the main thread are supported ( player.getApplicationLooper() == Looper.getMainLooper()).

      • setKeepContentOnPlayerReset

        public void setKeepContentOnPlayerReset​(boolean keepContentOnPlayerReset)
        Deprecated.
        Sets whether the currently displayed video frame or media artwork is kept visible when the player is reset. A player reset is defined to mean the player being re-prepared with different media, the player transitioning to unprepared media or an empty list of media items, or the player being replaced or cleared by calling setPlayer(Player).

        If enabled, the currently displayed video frame or media artwork will be kept visible until the player set on the view has been successfully prepared with new media and loaded enough of it to have determined the available tracks. Hence enabling this option allows transitioning from playing one piece of media to another, or from using one player instance to another, without clearing the view's content.

        If disabled, the currently displayed video frame or media artwork will be hidden as soon as the player is reset. Note that the video frame is hidden by making exo_shutter visible. Hence the video frame will not be hidden if using a custom layout that omits this view.

        Parameters:
        keepContentOnPlayerReset - Whether the currently displayed video frame or media artwork is kept visible when the player is reset.

      • setShowBuffering
