Description

needs triage question

Greetings,

We are currently conducting tests on live DRM-protected content playback using the ExoPlayer demo application. As part of our setup, we have activated the multi-session DRM flag to facilitate the playback of the content. This is the sole modification made at the code level.

During our testing, we observed that the content plays without interruption for approximately 30 to 40 minutes or more, after which the screen turns black for a few seconds before the content resumes on its own. Unfortunately, we were unable to glean any specific details from the logs, except for entries indicating a "bad index."

Additionally, we noticed that both video and audio rendering are temporarily disabled and then re-enabled.

ExoPlayer Version: validated latest demo app
DRM Scheme: Widevine
Content Type: DASH
Device and OS: Android OS version 12
