* Added `getPlaybackError` to `Player` interface.
* Moved initial bitrate estimate from `AdaptiveTrackSelection` to
`DefaultBandwidthMeter`.
* Removed default renderer time offset of 60000000 from internal player. The
actual renderer timestamp offset can be obtained by listening to
`BaseRenderer.onStreamChanged`.
* Added dependencies on checkerframework annotations for static code analysis.
### 2.7.3 ###
* Fix ProGuard configuration for Cast, IMA and OkHttp extensions.
* Update OkHttp extension to depend on OkHttp 3.10.0.
### 2.7.2 ###
* Gradle: Upgrade Gradle version from 4.1 to 4.4 so it can work with Android
Studio 3.1 ([#3708](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/3708)).
* Match codecs starting with "mp4a" to different Audio MimeTypes
([#3779](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/3779)).
* Fix ANR issue on Redmi 4X and Redmi Note 4
([#4006](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/4006)).
* Fix handling of zero padded strings when parsing Matroska streams
([#4010](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/4010)).
* Fix "Decoder input buffer too small" error when playing some FLAC streams.
* MediaSession extension: Omit fast forward and rewind actions when media is not
seekable ([#4001](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/4001)).
### 2.7.1 ###
* Gradle: Replaced 'compile' (deprecated) with 'implementation' and
'api'. This may lead to build breakage for applications upgrading from
previous version that rely on indirect dependencies of certain modules. In
such cases, application developers need to add the missing dependency to
their gradle file. You can read more about the new dependency configurations
[here](https://developer.android.com/studio/build/gradle-plugin-3-0-0-migration.html#new_configurations).
* HlsMediaSource: Make HLS periods start at zero instead of the epoch.
Applications that rely on HLS timelines having a period starting at
the epoch will need to update their handling of HLS timelines. The program
date time is still available via the informational
`Timeline.Window.windowStartTimeMs` field
([#3865](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/3865),
[#3888](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/3888)).
* Enable seeking in MP4 streams where duration is set incorrectly in the track
header ([#3926](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/3926)).
* Video: Force rendering a frame periodically in `MediaCodecVideoRenderer` and
`LibvpxVideoRenderer`, even if it is late.
### 2.7.0 ###
* Player interface:
* Add optional parameter to `stop` to reset the player when stopping.
* Add a reason to `EventListener.onTimelineChanged` to distinguish between
initial preparation, reset and dynamic updates.
* Add `Player.DISCONTINUITY_REASON_AD_INSERTION` to the possible reasons
reported in `Eventlistener.onPositionDiscontinuity` to distinguish
transitions to and from ads within one period from transitions between
periods.
* Replaced `ExoPlayer.sendMessages` with `ExoPlayer.createMessage` to allow
more customization of the message. Now supports setting a message delivery
playback position and/or a delivery handler
([#2189](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/2189)).
* Add `Player.VideoComponent`, `Player.TextComponent` and
`Player.MetadataComponent` interfaces that define optional video, text and
metadata output functionality. New `getVideoComponent`, `getTextComponent`
and `getMetadataComponent` methods provide access to this functionality.
* Add `ExoPlayer.setSeekParameters` for controlling how seek operations are
performed. The `SeekParameters` class contains defaults for exact seeking and
seeking to the closest sync points before, either side or after specified seek
positions. `SeekParameters` are not currently supported when playing HLS
streams.
* DefaultTrackSelector:
* Replace `DefaultTrackSelector.Parameters` copy methods with a builder.
* Support disabling of individual text track selection flags.
* Buffering:
* Allow a back-buffer of media to be retained behind the current playback
position, for fast backward seeking. The back-buffer can be configured by
custom `LoadControl` implementations.
* Add ability for `SequenceableLoader` to re-evaluate its buffer and discard
buffered media so that it can be re-buffered in a different quality.
* Allow more flexible loading strategy when playing media containing multiple
sub-streams, by allowing injection of custom `CompositeSequenceableLoader`
factories through `DashMediaSource.Factory`, `HlsMediaSource.Factory`,
`SsMediaSource.Factory`, and `MergingMediaSource`.
* Play out existing buffer before retrying for progressive live streams
([#1606](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/1606)).
* UI components:
* Generalized player and control views to allow them to bind with any
`Player`, and renamed them to `PlayerView` and `PlayerControlView`
respectively.
* Made `PlayerView` automatically apply video rotation when configured to use
`TextureView` ([#91](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/91)).
* Made `PlayerView` play button behave correctly when the player is ended
([#3689](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/3689)), and call a
`PlaybackPreparer` when the player is idle.
* DRM: Optimistically attempt playback of DRM protected content that does not
declare scheme specific init data in the manifest. If playback of clear
samples without keys is allowed, delay DRM session error propagation until
keys are actually needed
([#3630](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/3630)).
* DASH:
* Support in-band Emsg events targeting the player with scheme id
`urn:mpeg:dash:event:2012` and scheme values "1", "2" and "3".
* Support EventStream elements in DASH manifests.
* HLS:
* Add opt-in support for chunkless preparation in HLS. This allows an
HLS source to finish preparation without downloading any chunks, which can
significantly reduce initial buffering time
([#3149](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/3149)). More details
can be found
[here](https://medium.com/google-exoplayer/faster-hls-preparation-f6611aa15ea6).

([#2147](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/2147)).
* Support resampling 24-bit and 32-bit integer to 32-bit float for high
resolution output in `DefaultAudioSink`
([#3635](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/pull/3635)).
* Captions:
* Basic support for PGS subtitles
([#3008](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/3008)).

presentation timestamp
([#3782](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/3782)).
* Caching:
* Fix cache corruption issue
([#3762](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/3762)).
* Implement periodic check in `CacheDataSource` to see whether it's possible
to switch to reading/writing the cache having initially bypassed it.
* IMA extension:
* Fix the player getting stuck when an ad group fails to load
([#3584](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/3584)).
* Work around loadAd not being called beore the LOADED AdEvent arrives
([#3552](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/3552)).

* Fix handling of ad tags with only preroll/postroll ad groups
([#3715](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/3715)).
* Propagate ad media preparation errors to IMA so that the ads can be
skipped.
* Handle exceptions in IMA callbacks so that can be logged less verbosely.
* New Cast extension. Simplifies toggling between local and Cast playbacks.
* `EventLogger` moved from the demo app into the core library.
* Fix ANR issue on the Huawei P8 Lite, Huawei Y6II, Moto C+, Meizu M5C,
Lenovo K4 Note and Sony Xperia E5.
([#3724](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/3724),
[#3835](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/3835)).
* Fix potential NPE when removing media sources from a
DynamicConcatenatingMediaSource
([#3796](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/3796)).
* Check `sys.display-size` on Philips ATVs
([#3807](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/3807)).
* Release `Extractor`s on the loading thread to avoid potentially leaking
resources when the playback thread has quit by the time the loading task has
completed.

### r2.0.0 ###
ExoPlayer 2.x is a major iteration of the library. It includes significant API
and architectural changes, new features and many bug fixes. You can read about
some of the motivations behind ExoPlayer 2.x
[here](https://medium.com/google-exoplayer/exoplayer-2-x-why-what-and-when-74fd9cb139#.am7h8nytm).
* Root package name changed to `com.google.android.exoplayer2`. The library
structure and class names have also been sanitized. Read more
[here](https://medium.com/google-exoplayer/exoplayer-2-x-new-package-and-class-names-ef8e1d9ba96f#.lv8sd4nez).
* Key architectural changes:
* Late binding between rendering and media source components. Allows the same
rendering components to be re-used from one playback to another. Enables
features such as gapless playback through playlists and DASH multi-period
support.
* Improved track selection design. More details can be found
[here](https://medium.com/google-exoplayer/exoplayer-2-x-track-selection-2b62ff712cc9#.n00zo76b6).
* LoadControl now used to control buffering and loading across all playback
types.
* Media source components given additional structure. A new MediaSource class
has been introduced. MediaSources expose Timelines that describe the media
they expose, and can consist of multiple MediaPeriods. This enables features
such as seeking in live playbacks and DASH multi-period support.
* Responsibility for loading the initial DASH/SmoothStreaming/HLS manifest is
promoted to the corresponding MediaSource components and is no longer the
application's responsibility.
* Higher level abstractions such as SimpleExoPlayer have been added to the
library. These make the library easier to use for common use cases. The demo
app is halved in size as a result, whilst at the same time gaining more
functionality. Read more
[here](https://medium.com/google-exoplayer/exoplayer-2-x-improved-demo-app-d97171aaaaa1).
* Enhanced library support for implementing audio extensions. Read more
[here](https://medium.com/google-exoplayer/exoplayer-2-x-new-audio-features-cfb26c2883a#.ua75vu4s3).
* Format and MediaFormat are replaced by a single Format class.
* Key new features:
* Playlist support. Includes support for gapless playback between playlist
items and consistent application of LoadControl and TrackSelector policies
when transitioning between items
([#1270](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/1270)).
* Seeking in live playbacks for DASH and SmoothStreaming
([#291](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/291)).
* DASH multi-period support
([#557](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/557)).
* MediaSource composition allows MediaSources to be concatenated into a
playlist, merged and looped. Read more
[here](https://medium.com/google-exoplayer/exoplayer-2-x-mediasource-composition-6c285fcbca1f#.zfha8qupz).
* Looping support (see above)
([#490](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/490)).
* Ability to query information about all tracks in a piece of media (including
those not supported by the device)
([#1121](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/1121)).
* Improved player controls.
* Support for PSSH in fMP4 moof atoms
([#1143](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/1143)).
* Support for Opus in Ogg
([#1447](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/1447)).
* CacheDataSource support for standalone media file playbacks (mp3, mp4 etc).
* FFMPEG extension (for audio only).
* Key bug fixes:
* Removed unnecessary secondary requests when playing standalone media files
([#1041](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/1041)).
* Fixed playback of video only (i.e. no audio) live streams
([#758](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/758)).
* Fixed silent failure when media buffer is too small
([#583](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/583)).
* Suppressed "Sending message to a Handler on a dead thread" warnings
([#426](https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/426)).
