Exomedia Player blocking occassionally when livestreaming?

[erkand-imeri]

Hello there, i am using ExoMedia Player for playing livestreaming links on my application and i am really liking it except that sometimes the video is blocking occassionally when i play the livestreaming http link?

How can i fix this?

What do you mean by "blocking"? that term can have many meanings

I mean that while the video is playing it stops at certain amount of time and then again starts to play, this doesn't happen with VideoView. I compared both players with the same link.

It sounds like the video is buffering (see #102)

@brianwernick, thanks for your reply. I want to ask you, how can i implement the buffering on the player.

What solution do you propose. Should i use the setOnBufferingListener() method on Android. I was curious to know how do you implement it.

Thanks in advance.

A Buffering indicator isn't currently implemented (not to be confused with initial loading or buffer percentage). The OnBufferUpdateListener informs you of percentage updates not status updates; what you want is a status callback (#257 with Open PR #293) to know when the media is buffering
