Detailed changes:
- External players:
- Add a message instruction about stream selection;
- Add a message when there is no stream available for external players;
- Return now HLS, DASH and SmoothStreaming URL contents, in addition to progressive HTTP ones.
- Player:
- Support DASH, HLS and SmoothStreaming streams for videos, whether they are content URLs or the manifests themselves, in addition to progressive HTTP ones;
- Use a custom HttpDataSource to play YouTube contents, based of ExoPlayer's default one, which allows better spoofing of official clients (custom user-agent and headers (depending of the client used), use of range and rn (set dynamically by the DataSource) parameters);
- Fetch YouTube progressive contents as DASH streams, like official clients, support fully playback of livestreams which have ended recently and OTF streams;
- Use ExoPlayer's default retries count for contents on non-fatal errors (instead of Integer.MAX_VALUE for non-live contents and 5 for live contents).
- Download dialog:
- Add message about support of progressive HTTP streams only for downloading;
- Remove several duplicated code and update relevant usages;
- Support downloading of contents with an unknown media format.
- ListHelper:
- Catch NumberFormatException when trying to compare two video streams between them.
- Tests:
- Update ListHelperTest and StreamItemAdapterTest to fix breaking changes in the extractor.
- Other places:
- Fixes deprecation of changes made in the extractor;
- Improve some code related to the files changed.
- Issues fixed and/or improved with the changes:
- Seeking of PeerTube HLS streams (the duration shown was the one from the stream duration and not the one parsed, incomplete because HLS streams are fragmented MP4s with multiple sidx boxes, for which seeking is not supported by ExoPlayer) (the app now uses the HLS manifest returned for each quality, in the master playlist (not fetched and computed by the extractor));
- Crash when loading PeerTube streams with a separated audio;
- Lack of some streams on some YouTube videos (OTF streams);
- Loading times of YouTube streams, after a quality change or a playback start;
- View count of YouTube ended livestreams interpreted as watching count (this type of streams is not interpreted anymore as livestreams);
- Watchable time of YouTube ended livestreams;
- Playback of SoundCloud HLS-only tracks (which cannot be downloaded anymore because the workaround which was used is being removed by SoundCloud, so it has been removed from the extractor).
Now the playback state of a stream is loaded only when needed (i.e. when the stream is visible), just as it is done with thumbnails.
Removed `StateObjectsListAdapter.java`, which used to load the state of every stream at list instantiation, generating slowdowns and freezes.
-Changed play queue items to display service names.
-Fixed Soundcloud playlist not fitting thumbnail.
-Refactored image display options to follow uniform behavior.
-Refactoring and style changes on audio reactor and media button receiver.
-Extracted expiration time in media source manager.
-Re-enabled long click on live stream info items.
-Fixed dash source building to use mpd instead of extractor.
-Added info item menu with custom title banner on long click.
-Enabled starting playlists and channels from middle.
-Enabled caching for play queue item thumbnails.
-Modified play queue to revert to first item on deleting last item.
-Fixed player intent with quality selection not used in detail fragment.
-Fixed window index not reset on sync when not playing.
-Fix dropdown play string for stream info item.
-Added play queue dropdown to playlist info items.
-Added Channel Play Queue.
-Renamed External Play Queue to Playlist Play Queue.
-Modified Playlist Play Queue to allow loading from initial state.
