MediaBrowser

Browses media content offered by a MediaLibraryService in addition to the functions.

A controller that interacts with a MediaSession, a MediaSessionService hosting a MediaSession, or a MediaLibraryService hosting a . The MediaSession typically resides in a remote process like another app but may be in the same process as this controller. It implements and the player commands are sent to the underlying Player of the connected . It also has session-specific commands that can be handled by .

Controller Lifecycle

When a controller is created with the SessionToken for a MediaSession (i.e. session token type is TYPE_SESSION), the controller will connect to the specific session.

When a controller is created with the SessionToken for a MediaSessionService (i.e. session token type is TYPE_SESSION_SERVICE or TYPE_LIBRARY_SERVICE), the controller binds to the service for connecting to a MediaSession in it. MediaSessionService will provide a session to connect.

When you're done, use releaseFuture or release to clean up resources. This also helps the session service to be destroyed when there's no controller associated with it. Releasing the controller will still deliver all pending commands sent to the session and only unbind from the session service once these commands have been handled, or after a timeout of RELEASE_UNBIND_TIMEOUT_MS.

Threading Model

Methods of this class should be called from the application thread associated with the application looper. Otherwise, IllegalStateException will be thrown. Also, the methods of Player.Listener and Listener will be called from the application thread.

Package Visibility Filter

The app targeting API level 30 or higher must include a <queries> element in their manifest to connect to a service component of another app like MediaSessionService, MediaLibraryService, or androidx.media.MediaBrowserServiceCompat). See the following example and this guide for more information.

<!-- As intent actions -->
<intent>
  <action android:name="androidx.media3.session.MediaSessionService" />
</intent>
<intent>
  <action android:name="androidx.media3.session.MediaLibraryService" />
</intent>
<intent>
  <action android:name="android.media.browse.MediaBrowserService" />
</intent>
<!-- Or, as a package name -->
<package android:name="package_name_of_the_other_app" />

Backward Compatibility with legacy media sessions

In addition to MediaSession, the controller also supports connecting to a legacy media session - android.media.session.MediaSession and android.support.v4.media.session.MediaSessionCompat.

To request legacy sessions to play media, use one of the setMediaItem methods and set either mediaId, mediaUri or searchQuery. Once the controller is prepared, the controller triggers one of the following methods on android.support.v4.media.session.MediaSessionCompat.Callback depending on the provided information and the value of getPlayWhenReady:

onPrepareFromUri
onPlayFromUri
onPrepareFromMediaId
onPlayFromMediaId
onPrepareFromSearch
onPlayFromSearch

Other playlist change methods, like addMediaItem or removeMediaItem, trigger the MediaSessionCompat.Callback.onAddQueueItem and


MediaSessionCompat.Callback.onRemoveQueueItem

callbacks. Check getAvailableCommands to see if playlist modifications are supported by the legacy session.

Constants

KEY_MEDIA_NOTIFICATION_CONTROLLER_FLAG

@UnstableApi
const val KEY_MEDIA_NOTIFICATION_CONTROLLER_FLAG = "androidx.media3.session.MediaNotificationManager": String!

Key to mark the connection hints of the media notification controller.

For a controller to be recognized by the session as the media notification controller, this key needs to be used to set a boolean flag in the connection hints to true. Only an internal controller that has the same package name as the session can be used as a media notification controller.

When using a session within a MediaSessionService or MediaLibraryService, the service connects a media notification controller automatically. Apps can do this for standalone session to configure the platform session in the same way.

RELEASE_UNBIND_TIMEOUT_MS

@UnstableApi
const val RELEASE_UNBIND_TIMEOUT_MS = 30000: Long

The timeout for handling pending commands after calling release. If the timeout is reached, the controller is unbound from the session service even if commands are still pending.

`index: Int`	The index at which to replace the media item. If the index is larger than the size of the playlist, the request is ignored.
`mediaItem: MediaItem!`	The new `MediaItem`.

replaceMediaItems

fun replaceMediaItems(
    fromIndex: Int,
    toIndex: Int,
    mediaItems: (Mutable)List<MediaItem!>!
): Unit

Replaces the media items at the given range of the playlist.

Implementations of this method may attempt to seamlessly continue playback if the currently playing media item is replaced with a compatible one (e.g. same URL, only metadata has changed).

This method must only be called if COMMAND_CHANGE_MEDIA_ITEMS is available.

Note that it is possible to replace a range with an arbitrary number of new items, so that the number of removed items defined by fromIndex and toIndex does not have to match the number of added items defined by mediaItems. As result, it may also change the index of subsequent items not touched by this operation.

Parameters
`fromIndex: Int`	The start of the range. If the index is larger than the size of the playlist, the request is ignored.
`toIndex: Int`	The first item not to be included in the range (exclusive). If the index is larger than the size of the playlist, items up to the end of the playlist are replaced.
`mediaItems: (Mutable)List<MediaItem!>!`	The `media items` to replace the range with.

seekBack

Interoperability: When connected to android.support.v4.media.session.MediaSessionCompat, resultCode will return the custom result code from the android.os.ResultReceiver#onReceiveResult(int, Bundle) instead of the standard result codes defined in the SessionResult.

Parameters
`command: SessionCommand!`	The custom command.
`args: Bundle!`	The additional arguments. May be empty.

Returns
`ListenableFuture<SessionResult!>!`	A `ListenableFuture` of `SessionResult` representing the pending completion.

): ListenableFuture<SessionResult!>!

Sends a custom command to the session for the given media item.

Calling this method is equivalent to calling sendCustomCommand and including the media ID in the argument bundle with key EXTRA_KEY_MEDIA_ID.

A command is not accepted if it is not a custom command or the command is not in the list of available session commands.

Parameters
`command: SessionCommand!`	The custom command.
`mediaItem: MediaItem!`	The media item for which the command is sent.
`args: Bundle!`	The additional arguments. May be empty.

`ListenableFuture<SessionResult!>!`	A `ListenableFuture` of `SessionResult` representing the pending completion.

setAudioAttributes

fun setAudioAttributes(
    audioAttributes: AudioAttributes!,
    handleAudioFocus: Boolean
): Unit

Sets the attributes for audio playback, used by the underlying audio track. If not set, the default audio attributes will be used. They are suitable for general media playback.

Setting the audio attributes during playback may introduce a short gap in audio output as the audio track is recreated. A new audio session id will also be generated.

If tunneling is enabled by the track selector, the specified audio attributes will be ignored, but they will take effect if audio is later played without tunneling.

If the device is running a build before platform API version 21, audio attributes cannot be set directly on the underlying audio track. In this case, the usage will be mapped onto an equivalent stream type using getStreamTypeForAudioUsage.

If audio focus should be handled, the usage must be USAGE_MEDIA or USAGE_GAME. Other usages will throw an .

This method must only be called if COMMAND_SET_AUDIO_ATTRIBUTES is available.

Parameters
`audioAttributes: AudioAttributes!`	The attributes to use for audio playback.
`handleAudioFocus: Boolean`	True if the player should handle audio focus, false otherwise.

        .buildUpon()
        .setMaxVideoSizeSd()
        .build())

This method must only be called if COMMAND_SET_TRACK_SELECTION_PARAMETERS is available.

setVideoSurface

fun setVideoSurface(surface: Surface?): Unit

Sets the Surface onto which video will be rendered. The caller is responsible for tracking the lifecycle of the surface, and must clear the surface by calling setVideoSurface(null) if the surface is destroyed.

If the surface is held by a SurfaceView, TextureView or then it's recommended to use setVideoSurfaceView, setVideoTextureView or setVideoSurfaceHolder rather than this method, since passing the holder allows the player to track the lifecycle of the surface automatically.

This method must only be called if COMMAND_SET_VIDEO_SURFACE is available.

Parameters
`surface: Surface?`	The `Surface`.

setVideoSurfaceHolder

fun setVideoSurfaceHolder(surfaceHolder: SurfaceHolder?): Unit

Sets the SurfaceHolder that holds the Surface onto which video will be rendered. The player will track the lifecycle of the surface automatically.

Parameters
`surfaceHolder: SurfaceHolder?`	The surface holder.

setVideoSurfaceView

fun setVideoSurfaceView(surfaceView: SurfaceView?): Unit

Sets the SurfaceView onto which video will be rendered. The player will track the lifecycle of the surface automatically.

The thread that calls the SurfaceHolder.Callback methods must be the thread associated with getApplicationLooper.

This method must only be called if COMMAND_SET_VIDEO_SURFACE is available.

Parameters
`surfaceView: SurfaceView?`	The surface view.

setVideoTextureView

fun setVideoTextureView(textureView: TextureView?): Unit

Sets the TextureView onto which video will be rendered. The player will track the lifecycle of the surface automatically.

Consider using SurfaceView via setVideoSurfaceView instead of . SurfaceView generally causes lower battery consumption, and has better handling for HDR and secure content. See Choosing a surface type for more information.

The thread that calls the TextureView.SurfaceTextureListener methods must be the thread associated with getApplicationLooper.

This method must only be called if COMMAND_SET_VIDEO_SURFACE is available.

Parameters
`textureView: TextureView?`	The texture view.

setVolume

fun setVolume(volume: @FloatRange(from = 0, to = 1) Float): Unit

This method must only be called if COMMAND_SET_VOLUME is available.

Parameters
`volume: @FloatRange(from = 0, to = 1) Float`	Linear output gain to apply to all audio channels.

stop

fun stop(): Unit

Stops playback without resetting the playlist. Use pause rather than this method if the intention is to pause playback.

Calling this method will cause the playback state to transition to STATE_IDLE and the player will release the loaded media and resources required for playback. The player instance can still be used by calling prepare again, and release must still be called on the player if it's no longer required.

Calling this method does not clear the playlist, reset the playback position or the playback error.

This method must only be called if COMMAND_STOP is available.
