Description
Use case description
Per the javadocs PlayerView.onResume() is recommended to be called in Activity.onStart(), or Activity.onResume() for API versions <= 23.
PlayerView.onPause() has similar logic.
This API level differentiation is meant to handle multi-window mode that was introduced in API 24.
Developers are expected to know how to handle this in their own code with API level checks.
Proposed solution
media3 / exoplayer library should instead handle these version differences internally so developers don't have to implement the API level checks in their own code.
