Do it more than one time, stream1, stream2, stream1, stream2... and sooner or later should give you an error... at least, here happens (with mi9tpro, x86emulator and a generic android 8.0 device).

Will give it a deep look probably your case implies that something is happening between the stream and the player during reading the stream or the server that holds the stream have some limitations hard to say now probably i can take more deep look in the morning will see.

Now I am 100% sure that the issue lies to the server that you are keep requesting those media From, AS I SAID IT IS A LIMITATION OF THE SERVER THAT HOLDS YOUR MEDIA. it does not related to EXOPLAYER or even the wrapper. just tried with other streams on my own server and it does work normally even with the bad design button clicks. please next time post an issue related to the wrapper or even the exoplayer itself so we can avoid this kind of confusion. Your example with Different Videos From YouTube. those links in the example will expire sooner or later so try with other streams..

I don't want to contradict what you said about the server, but this is already tested and works just fine. I did a test in Android x86 emulator with Dream Player IPTV app with the links I sent to you in the project and others more to test, and is works ALWAYS, even changing fast from one channel to another. The Dream Player IPTV is using ExoPlayer as video engine. That's told me that the problem is NOT in the server.

You cannot fix it, that's no a problem, you're doing it for free for all of us... thank you for this and to try to fix it anyway. I will not disturb you more with this.

PS: Your project works ALWAYS with these kind of links and with the type of stream type.

I will repeat myself again.THIS IS NOT AN ISSUE WITH Exoplayer or even related to the Wrapper now you claim that what you so called an issue is now WORKING, There is nothing to be fixed here neither for Exoplayer source or even for the Wrapper, with that being said the issue lies in your server that holds your media and its limitations to handle requests thats why when put a sleep or even wait for is always plays those media..and lastly next comments should be related to a valuable issues related to the Wrapper, not a discussion about what you so called unable of fixing some illusion that you face.

Hello, I want to add one more functionality to the library through javaobject but when I do it gives me an error.
I want to know how I get the instance of the exoplayer that you are using.

java.lang.RuntimeException: Method: setLoadControl not found in: com.addo.exoplayerwrapper.SPlayer

obviously om.addo.exoplayerwrapper.SPlayer is not the class I want to instantiate but the one of the exoplayer. You understand me?

Hello @PassionDEV,

I wanted to ask if there is a way to get the meta data that can be obtained by any url that can be played (name, image and current stream, or whatever data it might have).
As always thank you very much for your time.

example

ExoPlayer-ID3 metadata

Would it be possible to update the Exoplayer for B4A? In the mean while, the original library supports reading MP3 tags, which is interesting for displaying info (like the title of the current song playing) on radio streams. I can download this data manually from the radio's website using...
