com.google.android.exoplayer2.source.UnrecognizedInputFormatException with MP4 stream

[maverick-sahil]

Trying to play mp4 stream from url https://stage.example.com/api/media/play/med-cf7e41bf-4698-1234-xxxx-9b2f1?type=video/mp4 using media using ProgressiveMediaSource but getting

com.google.android.exoplayer2.source.UnrecognizedInputFormatException: None of the available extractors (MatroskaExtractor, FragmentedMp4Extractor, Mp4Extractor, Mp3Extractor, AdtsExtractor, Ac3Extractor, TsExtractor, FlvExtractor, OggExtractor, PsExtractor, WavExtractor, AmrExtractor, Ac4Extractor, FlacExtractor) could read the stream.

If I try using HlsMediaSource getting

com.google.android.exoplayer2.source.UnrecognizedInputFormatException: Input does not start with the #EXTM3U header.

What should be the appropriate MediaSource here?

I was able to successfully test my stream on https://www.radiantmediaplayer.com/test-your-streaming-url.html but its not working in exoplayer

Is the url https://stage.example.com/api/media/play/med-cf7e41bf-4698-1234-xxxx-9b2f1?type=video/mp4 what you wanted to post? stage.example.com doesn't seem to be a resolvable host name.

Please provide us with a url to the stream you are trying to play, so we can test with your content.

Update: Its working now after adding custom header defaultRequestProperties.set("Range", "bytes=0-") to DefaultHttpDataSourceFactory

Ok, glad it works. Not sure why you need to add a range header. I can not really help. When trying with the URL above I get a HTTP/200 with a json file saying it is actually a 404. The web player above can't play they file either, saying "This content is currently not available".

I'm closing this issue. Please re-open if you want to look me into this again and you think the URL should work.
