I want to integrate Audio ads into my podcast app with the interval of 3 podcasts. After every 3 podcasts, I need one specific ad to play which could be skippable or non-skippable.
For integration, I have gone through exoplayer official docs of ad insertion and also found exoplayer IMA extension
In IMA integration docs, I found the following code snippet
MediaSourceFactory mediaSourceFactory =
new DefaultMediaSourceFactory(dataSourceFactory)
.setAdsLoaderProvider(unusedAdTagUri -> adsLoader)
.setAdViewProvider(playerView);
In above code, there is setAdsLoaderProvider which takes ImaAdsLoader as per docs. But setAdsLoaderProvider is deprecated and instead of that we need to use setLocalAdInsertionComponents which takes AdsLoader.Provider as an argument as per docs here.
Here I found one medium article for the same but, in that also facing some issues and not clear enough because after that so many things have been changed in exoplayer.
Also in all these official docs and articles, they initialize and prepare exoplayer at the same time. In my case, I want to initialize exoplayer when the service bind to the app and play exoplayer on some specific button clicks.
Does anyone have implemented this or done some research on this?
Thank you in advance!

I want to implement an application that listens for events from the official Youtube Application, I've been digging into a lot of question here in Stackoverflow but I couldn't find a good answer.
I want to listen when a video start and pause/stop, I've seen in the logcat some relevant information. The only thing that is missing is the video ID. But maybe there is another better way to get this information.
And I know It is possible because that's exactly what Musixmatch does:
Thank you
Please refer to Android MediaController (https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media2/session/MediaController) which -
Allows an app to interact with an active MediaSession or a MediaSessionService which would provide MediaSession. Media buttons and other commands can be sent to the session.
This question might have been asked many times. I searched everywhere but could not find the correct answer. I am using ExoPlayer in my project to play HLS videos.
I want to give user the option to select the bandwidth of videos. Something like what YouTube does.Any idea how this can be achieved using ExoPlayer?
From ExoPlayer issue tracker:
ExoPlayer currently selects the first variant listed in the master
playlist. If I remember correctly, this is what Apple
recommends/specifies as correct client behavior. If you want to start
in the lowest quality, you should technically have your server
generate the master playlist with the lowest quality listed first.
The above aside, we do agree that it makes more sense for the client
to make the initial variant selection locally, as opposed to the
recommended behavior. We'll be moving HLS over to use FormatEvaluator
in ExoPlayer V2, which will give more control over the initial
selection (and over the adaptive algorithm in general).
And as the solution, this comment:
Have a look at AdaptiveTrackSelection.Factory. Its parameters may
provide enough customization for your case.
I think this should give you either the answer you need, or it will guide you in the right direction.
Note that you have to provide streams in lower qualities to be able to use this. If you ONLY have the video in HD, ExoPlayer can't downsample the video, its not its job and not what it is intended for. ExoPlayer can only sync and enable smooth transition between the video in multiple resolutions when they are provided.
Is there any way to get my YouTube channel's top fans data? I heard there is a YouTube api but didnt find info about fans.
This is your channel's youtube fan page : https://www.youtube.com/audience?sf=engagement_score
I guess what you want to achieve can be performed by using Youtube Analytics and Reporting APIs. Specifically, Channel reports. However, there is no functionality to return "Top Fans" per-se. However, you can use this API and develop a function that compares subscribers of your channels against how many videos they have liked, shared, favorited, added to playlists or any other logic that you want to implement. However, that will have to be done and defined by you on your end.
Hope this helps.
It seems like every tutorial that I can find has a different, usually old, way of doing it. For example, even Google's LiveCard page has an example where they tell you to implement LiveCardCallback , however the link they give is dead, and that class doesn't exist in the GDK.
I also found a gdk apidemo on github, but most of those examples seem to be outdated?
Any good resource for an Android developer just starting out on Glass?
LiveCardCallback was renamed to DirectRenderingCallback in XE12. Thanks for catching one that we missed!
Third-party examples that you find online may have not yet updated to XE12, but the Compass, Stopwatch, and Timer on our GitHub page (and also found in the add-on's samples folder) are all updated and good examples of using live cards with high-frequency direct rendering.
Im wondering if is possible to do this. Anywhere on my view I want to see a list of videos (from my youtube channel or just a playlist created by me), this way the user can click in any of them and using the youtube player API would be visualizated in the bottom of the screen for example.
Is this possible to do and if so, how complicated could be? (im really a beginner in android, not in programming). Ive read about Youtube DATA APi but it seems is used with the youtube app so its not what I want to do.
Thanks a lot.

Adding information just in case someone in the future is interested in doing this (after one year, but better later than never). I uploaded an exemplary app that shows how to do this. It can be found in the following GitHub repository: https://github.com/Rafagf/HealthTube
Have you taken a look at the examples in the documentation? That's the best place to get started. I don't think anyone is going to be able to provide you with more complete code than what's available there.
