I have ExoPlayer which plays HLS videos, the thing is i need to give user ability to change video quality(auto/1080/720/480).
I figured out that playing around with AdaptiveTrackSelection.Factory does set the quality, but it remains till the object is killed.
I have also tried using MappingTrackSelector, i know that my video has 4 tracks, but i did not get how to select any of it manually. Will this selection make it work?
Thanks for any ideas.
MappingTrackSelector.MappedTrackInfo trackInfo = mDefaultTrackSelector.getCurrentMappedTrackInfo();
mDefaultTrackSelector.selectTracks(
//what should go here?
, trackInfo.getTrackGroups(4));
Regarding this thread :https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/2250, I managed to change exo player video quality while playing previous one, so it does not getting in buffering instantly.
So I have next classes :
public enum HLSQuality {
Auto, Quality1080, Quality720, Quality480, NoValue
}
class HLSUtil {
private HLSUtil() {
}
@NonNull
static HLSQuality getQuality(@NonNull Format format) {
switch (format.height) {
case 1080: {
return HLSQuality.Quality1080;
}
case 720: {
return HLSQuality.Quality720;
}
case 480:
case 486: {
return HLSQuality.Quality480;
}
default: {
return HLSQuality.NoValue;
}
}
}
static boolean isQualityPlayable(@NonNull Format format) {
return format.height <= 1080;
}
}
