Audio keeps playing when exoplayer releases-CodePudding

I am using Exoplayer in my dialog. I want the video to play automatically when dialog opens. When simpleExoPlayer.prepare() snippet is active I am able to do autoplay but when I close the dialog audio keeps playing. Before activating simpleExoPlayer.prepare() audio stops when I dismiss dialog. Is there another method to autoplay exoplayer or stop the audio when dialog dismiss?

class VideoViewDialog (context: Context) : BaseDialog<LayoutDialogVideoViewBinding>(context) {


private var videoUrl : String = ""
private lateinit var simpleExoPlayer: ExoPlayer

override fun populateUi() {
    setCanceledOnTouchOutside(true)
    mBinding?.apply {

        initializePlayer()
    }
}


private fun initializePlayer() {
    val mediaDataSourceFactory: DataSource.Factory = DefaultDataSource.Factory(context)

    val mediaSource = ProgressiveMediaSource.Factory(mediaDataSourceFactory).createMediaSource(
        MediaItem.fromUri(videoUrl))

    val mediaSourceFactory: MediaSource.Factory = DefaultMediaSourceFactory(mediaDataSourceFactory)

    simpleExoPlayer = ExoPlayer.Builder(context)
        .setMediaSourceFactory(mediaSourceFactory)
        .build()

    simpleExoPlayer.addMediaSource(mediaSource)

    simpleExoPlayer.playWhenReady = true
    simpleExoPlayer.prepare()

    mBinding?.apply {

        playerView.player = simpleExoPlayer
        playerView.requestFocus()


    }
    simpleExoPlayer.play()

}

private fun releasePlayer() {
    simpleExoPlayer.release()
}

public override fun onStart() {
    super.onStart()

    if (Util.SDK_INT > 23) initializePlayer()
}

public override fun onStop() {
    super.onStop()

    if (Util.SDK_INT > 23) releasePlayer()
}

override fun getLayoutRes(): Int {
    return R.layout.layout_dialog_video_view
}


companion object{
    fun newInstance(
        context: Context,
        videoUrl : String,
    ) : VideoViewDialog{
        val dialog = VideoViewDialog(context)
        dialog.also {
            it.videoUrl = videoUrl
        }
        return dialog
    }
}
}

I tried .stop, clearVideoSurface(), playerView.player = null before .release(). Didn't work

CodePudding user response：

Seems like you called initializePlayer() twice resulting in two Exoplayer Instance playing which you're only able to release the one the simpleExoPlayer variable hold reference to
