      • useFastStartup

         abstract void useFastStartup(boolean useFastStartup)

        The player starts the playback as soon as the first video data is available related to the initial playback position.

        • Using this feature will sacrifice the accuracy of the initial seek position
        • This API is in an experimental stage and may be subject to breaking changes.
        Parameters:
        useFastStartup - Whether fast startup is enabled.

      • setDecoderSelectionHelper

         abstract void setDecoderSelectionHelper(@Nullable() DecoderSelectionHelper decoderSelectionHelper)

        This helper manages whether the specified codec is usable for decoding on the current device.

        • The player by default always tries to use the preferred decoder by the device.
        • In some cases these decoders are not the best for certain playback use-cases, so this methods gives the decoder selection logic into your hands.
        • This is a global setting for all player instances. Strongly suggest you to only flip this flag when it is really needed, per device basis.
        • This API is in an experimental stage and may be subject to breaking changes.
        Parameters:
        decoderSelectionHelper - the helper that decides based on the decoder name if it can be used on the device.
