Android Question ExoPlayer - How to resume if source unknown

[Herbert32]

Hi again all out there

if i add some sources to a sourcesList and one of them cannot be played i just receive a Message in my Debugging-Log:

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

And the player stays on the end of the last playable file...

How can i bring ExoPlayer to ignore the files, which he cannot play and resume playing with the next file?

Best regards
Herbert

Are you handling the Error event?

Sub SimpleExoPlayer1_Error (Message As String)

 

[Herbert32]

Good morning Erel,

i tried to handle the error-event but i don't know how to skip to the next file and restart the paused player.

Sub Player_Error (Message As String)
   
    Log("Error: " & Message)
    player1.Play

End Sub

I have not found any sources to solve this.
My base for starting has been your sample so i founf that the Error-Message in my Log came from there.

Sorry but I'm not very experienced to B4A as this is my first real-life-project...

Best regards
Herbert

See this post: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/t...ideoview-alternative.72652/page-3#post-469443

You can PlayerEx.CurrentWindowIndex to get the index of the current track.

 

[Herbert32]

Yes, your linked Post seem to be the right direction...

But at calling PlayerEx.CurrentWindowIndex i receive following error-message :-(

Cannot get methods of class: com.google.android.exoplayer2.SimpleExoPlayer, disabling cache.

This by itself is not an error. Does it crash?

 

[Herbert32]

yes it crashes

attached you will find the simple and small code from which i'm shocked that i'm unable to solve by myself :-(

And btw. i am unable to clear my log-window - it clears tempraryly but after restarting, all the old messages are again in the log-window - also after restarting b4a...

 

[Herbert32]

btw - the error happens before the first 'player_ready'-event

 

[Herbert32]

it seems that if i'm not able to solve by myself in such a incredible small piece of code, it's better not to use this and research for something different which can be used

Ok.
