Android Question Exoplayer Android 8 issue

[jcesar]

Hi

I don´t know why, but Exoplayer stop streaming audio some minutes after the device turn off the screen. If i turn on the device, the streaming is restored. The device its a Xiaomi Mi A2. In older android this does not happen.

1. You need to have a foreground service.

2. You need to acquire a partial wake lock with PhoneWakeState.

You should never post a new question in an existing thread. Always start a new one.

Erel, What is the correct way to use exoplayer as a service?

Nothing special. Create a service, make it foreground and play the video with SimpleExoPlayer.
