Description

Description:
I am currently working on an Android application that utilizes ExoPlayer for media playback. One of the key requirements of the project is to dynamically update the UI based on metadata changes during playback. We have an "onCue" method for Amazon IVS player for this specific requirement. I need something similar to that in ExoPlayer . I found a code snippet for doing this in ExoPlayer .

Issue:
I am seeking advice and suggestions from the community about this approach, Is there any better way for accessing metadata changes in ExoPlayer during playback?

Questions:

  1. Are there any best practices or examples available for accessing metadata change in ExoPlayer?
  2. Any considerations or challenges I should be aware of when implementing this feature in ExoPlayer compared to AWS IVS Player?

Reference:
Embedding Metadata in Amazon IVS Player: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ivs/latest/LowLatencyUserGuide/metadata.html

Additional Context:
Android version: Android SDK 21 or above
Any relevant code snippets or resources would be greatly appreciated.
