Decodes and renders video using a Decoder.

This renderer accepts the following messages sent via createMessage on the playback thread:

Message with type MSG_SET_VIDEO_OUTPUT to set the output surface. The message payload should be the target Surface or VideoDecoderOutputBufferRenderer, or null. Other non-null payloads have the effect of clearing the output.
Message with type MSG_SET_VIDEO_FRAME_METADATA_LISTENER to set a listener for metadata associated with frames being rendered. The message payload should be the , or null.

)

Parameters

Public methods

enableMayRenderStartOfStream

public void enableMayRenderStartOfStream()

Enables this renderer to render the start of the stream even if the state is not STATE_STARTED yet.

This is used to update the value of mayRenderStartOfStream passed to enable.

handleMessage

public void handleMessage(
    @Renderer.MessageType int messageType,
    @Nullable Object message
)

Handles a message delivered to the target.

Parameters
`@Renderer.MessageType int messageType`	The message type.
`@Nullable Object message`	The message payload.

Throws
`androidx.media3.exoplayer.ExoPlaybackException`	If an error occurred whilst handling the message. Should only be thrown by targets that handle messages on the playback thread.

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

Returns whether the buffer being processed should be dropped.

Parameters
`long earlyUs`	The time until the buffer should be presented in microseconds. A negative value indicates that the buffer is late.
`long elapsedRealtimeUs`	`elapsedRealtime` in microseconds, measured at the start of the current iteration of the rendering loop.

shouldForceRenderOutputBuffer

protected boolean shouldForceRenderOutputBuffer(
    long earlyUs,
    long elapsedSinceLastRenderUs
)

Returns whether to force rendering an output buffer.

Parameters
`long earlyUs`	The time until the current buffer should be presented in microseconds. A negative value indicates that the buffer is late.
`long elapsedSinceLastRenderUs`	The elapsed time since the last output buffer was rendered, in microseconds.

Returns
`boolean`	Returns whether to force rendering an output buffer.

skipOutputBuffer

protected void skipOutputBuffer(VideoDecoderOutputBuffer outputBuffer)

Skips the specified output buffer and releases it.

Parameters
`VideoDecoderOutputBuffer outputBuffer`	The output buffer to skip.

updateDroppedBufferCounters

protected void updateDroppedBufferCounters(
    int droppedInputBufferCount,
    int droppedDecoderBufferCount
)

Updates local counters and decoderCounters to reflect that buffers were dropped.

Parameters
`int droppedInputBufferCount`	The number of buffers dropped from the source before being passed to the decoder.
`int droppedDecoderBufferCount`	The number of buffers dropped after being passed to the decoder.
