Hi, I am facing a problem with m3u8 links for displaying subtitles, seems m3u8 links are not supported in this library, It works fine with exoplayer library. Trying to construct the media source like:


Format englishSubsFormat = Format.createTextSampleFormat(null, MimeTypes.APPLICATION_M3U8, null, Format.NO_VALUE, Format.NO_VALUE, "eng", null);
            Format thaiSubsFormat = Format.createTextSampleFormat(null, MimeTypes.APPLICATION_M3U8, null, Format.NO_VALUE, Format.NO_VALUE, "thai", null);
            MediaSource englishSubsSource = new SingleSampleMediaSource(Uri.parse(englishUrl), mediaDataSourceFactory, englishSubsFormat, C.TIME_UNSET);
            MediaSource thaiSubsSource = new SingleSampleMediaSource(Uri.parse(thaiUrl), mediaDataSourceFactory, thaiSubsFormat, C.TIME_UNSET);
            MergingMediaSource mergedSource = new MergingMediaSource(videoSource, englishSubsSource, thaiSubsSource);

EventLogger shows below logs,

Renderer:None [ 08-27 15:35:51.903 27269-27269/com.myplex.vodafonestaging D/EventLogger: Group:0 [ [ ] Track:0, id=null, mimeType=application/x-mpegURL, language=English, supported=NO ]

Please help here.

Hi Srikanth, Shared an original m3u8 link to your email.

I'm able to use the URL you gave in Exo Demo app and play them fine. By default the subtitle is disabled. I had to go to the Text Menu option and select "unknown" as the subtitle and it starts rendering. Our port does not do anything to impact subtitles.

Hi @peddisri, I've figured out that using SingleSampleMediaSource it is not possible to play hls subtitle source. By changing SingleSampleMediaSource to HlsMediaSource worked fine for me too, this is the original problem with sample source initialization. -Thanks.
