The track type that the renderer handles.

MediaCodecAdapter.Factory codecAdapterFactory

A factory for MediaCodecAdapter instances.

MediaCodecSelector mediaCodecSelector

A decoder selector.

boolean enableDecoderFallback

Whether to enable fallback to lower-priority decoders if decoder initialization fails. This may result in using a decoder that is less efficient or slower than the primary decoder.

float assumedMinimumCodecOperatingRate

A codec operating rate that all codecs instantiated by this renderer are assumed to meet implicitly (i.e. without the operating rate being set explicitly using KEY_OPERATING_RATE).

Public methods

isEnded

public boolean isEnded()

Whether the renderer is ready for the ExoPlayer instance to transition to STATE_ENDED. The player will make this transition as soon as true is returned by all of its renderers.

This method may be called when the renderer is in the following states: STATE_ENABLED, STATE_STARTED.

Returns
boolean

Whether the renderer is ready for the player to transition to the ended state.

isReady

public boolean isReady()

Whether the renderer is able to immediately render media from the current position.

If the renderer is in the STATE_STARTED state then returning true indicates that the renderer has everything that it needs to continue playback. Returning false indicates that the player should pause until the renderer is ready.

If the renderer is in the STATE_ENABLED state then returning true indicates that the renderer is ready for playback to be started. Returning false indicates that it is not.

This method may be called when the renderer is in the following states: STATE_ENABLED, STATE_STARTED.

Returns
boolean

Whether the renderer is ready to render media.

render

public void render(long positionUs, long elapsedRealtimeUs)

Incrementally renders the SampleStream.

If the renderer is in the STATE_ENABLED state then each call to this method will do work toward being ready to render the SampleStream when the renderer is started. If the renderer is in the STATE_STARTED state then calls to this method will render the SampleStream in sync with the specified media positions.

The renderer may also render the very start of the media at the current position (e.g. the first frame of a video stream) while still in the STATE_ENABLED state, unless it's the initial start of the media after calling enable with mayRenderStartOfStream set to false.

This method should return quickly, and should not block if the renderer is unable to make useful progress.

This method may be called when the renderer is in the following states: STATE_ENABLED, STATE_STARTED.

Parameters

Called after the output stream offset changes.

The default implementation is a no-op.

Parameters
long outputStreamOffsetUs

The output stream offset in microseconds.

onPositionReset

protected void onPositionReset(long positionUs, boolean joining)

protected void onStreamChanged(
    Format[] formats,
    long startPositionUs,
    long offsetUs,
    MediaSource.MediaPeriodId mediaPeriodId
)

Called when the renderer's stream has changed. This occurs when the renderer is enabled after onEnabled has been called, and also when the stream has been replaced whilst the renderer is enabled or started.

The default implementation is a no-op.

Parameters
Format[] formats

The enabled formats.

long startPositionUs

The start position of the new stream in renderer time (microseconds).

long offsetUs

The offset that will be added to the timestamps of buffers read via readSource so that decoder input buffers have monotonically increasing timestamps.

MediaSource.MediaPeriodId mediaPeriodId

The MediaSource.MediaPeriodId of the MediaPeriod that produces the stream.

processOutputBuffer

protected abstract boolean processOutputBuffer(
    long positionUs,
    long elapsedRealtimeUs,
    @Nullable MediaCodecAdapter codec,
    @Nullable ByteBuffer buffer,
    int bufferIndex,
    int bufferFlags,
    int sampleCount,
    long bufferPresentationTimeUs,
    boolean isDecodeOnlyBuffer,
    boolean isLastBuffer,
    Format format
)

Processes an output media buffer.

When a new ByteBuffer is passed to this method its position and limit delineate the data to be processed. The return value indicates whether the buffer was processed in full. If true is returned then the next call to this method will receive a new buffer to be processed. If false is returned then the same buffer will be passed to the next call. An implementation of this method is free to modify the buffer and can assume that the buffer will not be externally modified between successive calls. Hence an implementation can, for example, modify the buffer's position to keep track of how much of the data it has processed.

Note that the first call to this method following a call to onPositionReset will always receive a new ByteBuffer to be processed.

Parameters
long positionUs

The current media time in microseconds, measured at the start of the current iteration of the rendering loop.

long elapsedRealtimeUs

elapsedRealtime in microseconds, measured at the start of the current iteration of the rendering loop.

@Nullable MediaCodecAdapter codec

The MediaCodecAdapter instance, or null in bypass mode were no codec is used.

@Nullable ByteBuffer buffer

The output buffer to process, or null if the buffer data is not made available to the application layer (see getOutputBuffer). This buffer can only be null for video data. Note that the buffer data can still be rendered in this case by using the bufferIndex.

int bufferIndex

The index of the output buffer.

int bufferFlags

The flags attached to the output buffer.

int sampleCount

The number of samples extracted from the sample queue in the buffer. This allows handling multiple samples as a batch for efficiency.

long bufferPresentationTimeUs

The presentation time of the output buffer in microseconds.

boolean isDecodeOnlyBuffer

Whether the buffer timestamp is less than the intended playback start position.

boolean isLastBuffer

Whether the buffer is known to contain the last sample of the current stream. This flag is set on a best effort basis, and any logic relying on it should degrade gracefully to handle cases where it's not set.

Format format

The Format associated with the buffer.

Returns
boolean

Whether the output buffer was fully processed (for example, rendered or skipped).

Throws
androidx.media3.exoplayer.ExoPlaybackException

If an error occurs processing the output buffer.

releaseCodec

protected void releaseCodec()

renderToEndOfStream

protected void renderToEndOfStream()

Incrementally renders any remaining output.

The default implementation is a no-op.

Throws
androidx.media3.exoplayer.ExoPlaybackException

Thrown if an error occurs rendering remaining output.

resetCodecStateForFlush

@CallSuper
protected void resetCodecStateForFlush()

Resets the renderer internal state after a codec flush.

resetCodecStateForRelease

@CallSuper
protected void resetCodecStateForRelease()

Resets the renderer internal state after a codec release.

Note that this only needs to reset state variables that are changed in addition to those already changed in resetCodecStateForFlush.

setPendingOutputEndOfStream

protected final void setPendingOutputEndOfStream()

Notifies the renderer that output end of stream is pending and should be handled on the next render.

setPendingPlaybackException

protected final void setPendingPlaybackException(ExoPlaybackException exception)

Sets an exception to be re-thrown by render.

Parameters
ExoPlaybackException exception

The exception.

shouldInitCodec

protected boolean shouldInitCodec(MediaCodecInfo codecInfo)

shouldReinitCodec

protected boolean shouldReinitCodec()

Returns whether the renderer needs to re-initialize the codec, possibly as a result of a change in device capabilities.

shouldUseBypass

protected boolean shouldUseBypass(Format format)

Returns whether buffers in the input format can be processed without a codec.

This method is only called if the content is not DRM protected, because if the content is DRM protected use of bypass is never possible.

Parameters
Format format

The input Format.

Returns
boolean

Whether playback bypassing MediaCodec is supported.

supportsFormat

@RendererCapabilities.Capabilities
protected abstract int supportsFormat(MediaCodecSelector mediaCodecSelector, Format format)

Returns the Capabilities for the given Format.

Parameters
MediaCodecSelector mediaCodecSelector

The decoder selector.

Format format

The Format.

Returns
int

The Capabilities for this Format.

Throws
androidx.media3.exoplayer.mediacodec.MediaCodecUtil.DecoderQueryException

supportsFormatDrm

protected static boolean supportsFormatDrm(Format format)

Returns whether this renderer supports the given Format's DRM scheme.

updateCodecOperatingRate

protected final boolean updateCodecOperatingRate()

Updates the codec operating rate, or triggers codec release and re-initialization if a previously set operating rate needs to be cleared.

Returns
boolean

False if codec release and re-initialization was triggered. True in all other cases.

Throws
androidx.media3.exoplayer.ExoPlaybackException

If an error occurs releasing or initializing a codec.

updateOutputFormatForTime

protected final void updateOutputFormatForTime(long presentationTimeUs)

Updates the output formats for the specified output buffer timestamp, calling onOutputFormatChanged if a change has occurred.

Subclasses should only call this method if operating in a mode where buffers are not dequeued from the decoder, for example when using video tunneling).

Throws
androidx.media3.exoplayer.ExoPlaybackException

Thrown if an error occurs as a result of the output format change.
