Description

Hi, so we have a use case where we need to discard specific Ads as per various conditions. Earlier, the same was achievable through the AdsManager.discardAdBreaks() method which discarded the currently playing/next ad and resumed the content perfectly. However, we have made use of the IMA extension of Exoplayer where we cannot get a reference to the AdsManager class. Hence, there is no way to use the discardAdBreaks() method.
Kindly suggest a way to discard specific ad breaks(pre/mid/post) on the player.
