Hi @AppWerft.

Audio only player? is it possible?

It is possible to start playing audio without creating video view (surfaceType: ExoPlayer.SURFACE_TYPE_NONE), but work in background is not implemented.

Whats about texts inside datastream?

Don't know what exactly do you mean. You should check out ExoPlayer documentation, if it supports what you want, we can make it work here.

but work in background is not implemented. what happens if the screen saver comes?

text data stream: metadata

What I have to do to add the background functionality? https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/4482 ?

AppWerft commented 5 years ago

The surfaceType is not part of handleCreationDict(). I don't understand how it works.

Activity stopped -> player released.

What I have to do to add the background functionality?

I would prefer not to implement background functionality in VideoPlayer. This should be part of AudioPlayer (or MediaPlayer) preferably with the same API as Ti.Media one.

About implementation read this: https://google.github.io/ExoPlayer/faqs.html#how-do-i-keep-audio-playing-when-my-app-is-backgrounded

The surfaceType is not part of handleCreationDict(). I don't understand how it works.
