• ExoPlayer:
  • Move the flag to enable/disable HAGC metadata for progressive media from MediaSource.Factory to ExtractorsFactory. The previous setExperimentalEnableHagcPlayback method is removed and replaced by ExtractorsFactory.setParseHagcMetadata. This also resolves an issue where disabling didn't work for Matroska/WebM containers.
  • Fix a playback stall caused when prewarming a non-transitioning secondary renderer.
  • Fix pre-warming issue where the Surface should be returned to the primary renderer when a seek resets and disables both renderers.
  • Fix ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException when a live timeline refresh moves the default position past a server-side inserted ad that is currently being played (#3348).
  • Fix a scrubbing mode issue where stale video frames could be briefly displayed when seeking with ScrubbingModeParameters.allowSkippingMediaCodecFlush enabled.
• Extractors:
  • Matroska: Fix issue where Tracks placed after clusters wouldn't result in a seekable timeline (#3377).
• Audio:
  • Fix buffer size calculation in SilenceSkippingAudioProcessor so that the minimum silence duration is not incorrectly scaled down by the frame size (#3271).
  • Fix 8-bit PCM handling in PcmAudioUtil to treat samples as unsigned as defined by Android (#3271).
  • Fix offload issue in which playback could stall during pre-roll or gapless transitions due to limited hardware buffer sizes.
  • Fix bug in DefaultAudioSink where release count doesn't decrease when playback thread is no longer alive (#3338).
• Session:
  • Fix NullPointerException when an in-process MediaController is released from a Player.Listener callback (#3375).
  • Fix deadlock on the main thread when a legacy MediaBrowser connects to a service returning an asynchronous result from onGetLibraryRoot() or onConnectAsync() (#3393).
• HLS extension:
  • Fix calculation of content resume offset when the target segment for snapping is not yet in the playlist (#3322).
  • Fix an issue where a fully consumed HlsMediaChunk retries loading on receiving EOFException from the extractor (#3350).
• DASH extension:
  • Fix incorrect sample timestamp calculation for image tracks with a presentationTimeOffset (#3334).
• Decoder extensions (FFmpeg, VP9, AV1, etc.):
  • Opus: Fix memory corruption when multiple OpusDecoder instances are initialized concurrently.
  • MPEG-H: Fix memory leak, truncation of non-ASCII characters, and potential native crash under low-memory conditions when sending commands to the MpeghUiManager (#3365).
