Description
Media 3 Effect NDK not found in Gradle / Maven
We were trying the composition demo code When we came across this error
The Effect NDK was not found
This line gives the error
https://github.com/androidx/media/blob/2bc207851df311340767e913931ca7b28cab1794/demos/composition/src/main/java/androidx/media3/demo/composition/CompositionPreviewViewModel.kt#L65
It has been called in the demo app
But dont see it in the Gradle list provided on this page
https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/media3
How can we add this
When we download the code, it seems to download from the main branch instead of the release branch, this might be causing the issue
