Behavior (Android v3)

To customize the ExoPlayer, use the ExoPlayerSettings reference that can be retrieved from JWPlayerView.

Look-Ahead buffer customization

To customize the look-ahead buffer size, you can create an object that implements com.google.android.exoplayer2.LoadControl and pass that object through ExoPlayerSettings

// Create a LoadControl object
LoadControl loadControl = new LoadControl() {
            @Override
            public void onPrepared() {
                
            }

            @Override
            public void onTracksSelected(Renderer[] renderers, TrackGroupArray trackGroups, TrackSelectionArray trackSelections) {

            }

            @Override
            public void onStopped() {

            }

            @Override
            public void onReleased() {

            }

            @Override
            public Allocator getAllocator() {
                return null;
            }

            @Override
            public long getBackBufferDurationUs() {
                return 0;
            }

            @Override
            public boolean retainBackBufferFromKeyframe() {
                return false;
            }

            @Override
            public boolean shouldContinueLoading(long bufferedDurationUs, float playbackSpeed) {
                return false;
            }

            @Override
            public boolean shouldStartPlayback(long bufferedDurationUs, float playbackSpeed, boolean rebuffering) {
                return false;
            }
        };
// Set it up to the player right before JWPlayer#setup() is called
player.getExoPlayerSettings().setLoadControl(loadControl);
// Setup the player config
PlayerConfig playerConfig = new PlayerConfig.Builder()
	//...
	.build();
player.setup(playerConfig);

Chunkless preparation

To enable chunk less preparation use the ExoPlayerSettings reference that can be retrieved from JWPlayerView. Chunkless preparation is disabled by default.

player.getExoPlayerSettings().enableChunkLessPreparation();
// Setup the player config
PlayerConfig playerConfig = new PlayerConfig.Builder()
	//...
	.build();
player.setup(playerConfig);
