Description

Dear ExoPlayer Development Team,

I’m encountering an issue with a live HLS stream in my application that uses Media3 ExoPlayer. When attempting to play the stream, I receive the following error message:

"Media includes video tracks but none are playable by this device."

I have tested the same stream with the latest version of the ExoPlayer demo app, and the issue persists. However, the stream works perfectly fine in other players like VLC Player without any problems.

This suggests that the stream is valid but might not be compatible with the current implementation of ExoPlayer. If required, I can email you the stream link for testing.

I would greatly appreciate it if you could investigate this issue and let me know if a fix or workaround is possible.

Looking forward to your feedback.

Best regards,
