Class BrightcoveSourceSelector

java.lang.Object
com.brightcove.player.controller.BrightcoveSourceSelector
All Implemented Interfaces:
SourceSelector

public class BrightcoveSourceSelector extends Object implements SourceSelector
It is the default SourceSelector implementation that will automatically select a Source rendition based on the following rules:
  • If an HLS source rendition exists use it (there should be only one, if any)
  • If no HLS renditions exists, but MP4 renditions exist, use the rendition that is closest to 256 kBps
  • If no HLS or MP4 renditions exist, throw a NoSourceFoundException

  • Method Details

    • isPreferHls

      public boolean isPreferHls()
      Returns whether to prefer HLS sources to other delivery types. By default, this will be true if running on a device with API level greater than or equal to Build.VERSION_CODES.ICE_CREAM_SANDWICH.
      Returns:
      true if HLS is preferred.
    • setPreferHls

      public void setPreferHls(boolean preferHls)
      Sets whether to prefer HLS sources to other delivery types. By default, this will be true if running on a device with API level greater than or equal to Build.VERSION_CODES.ICE_CREAM_SANDWICH.
      Parameters:
      preferHls - true if HLS is preferred.
    • selectSource

      @NonNull public Source selectSource(@NonNull Video video) throws NoSourceFoundException
      Determines best appropriate Source within given Video object based on logic implemented.
      Specified by:
      selectSource in interface SourceSelector
      Parameters:
      video - Video in which to find the most appropriate Source
      Returns:
      the best matched Source based on the currently implemented selection logic
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - when the Video passed is null
      NoSourceFoundException - when no valid Source is found
    • findBestSourceByBitRate

      public static Source findBestSourceByBitRate(SourceCollection sourceCollection, Integer bitRate)
      Given a SourceCollection, finds the Source with the closest bit rate to the given value.
      Parameters:
      sourceCollection - the collection of Sources in which the match should be found
      bitRate - the target bit rate desired for the chosen Source
      Returns:
      the Source that most closely matches the given bit rate, or any Source, if no match can be found
    • findSourcesByProfileVersion

      @NonNull public static Set<Source> findSourcesByProfileVersion(@NonNull SourceCollection sourceCollection, @NonNull String profileVersion)
      Find the Sources in the SourceCollection associated to the provided profile version. Currently this applies only to SourceCollection of typy DeliveryType.HLS, and its profile version, for example Source.EXT_X_VERSION_5 or Source.EXT_X_VERSION_4.

      The Set will be empty when no sources are found.

      Parameters:
      sourceCollection - the source collection
      profileVersion - the profile version
      Returns:
      the source set
    • selectSource

      @Nullable public static Source selectSource(@Nullable Set<Source> sources)
      Attempts to select the HTTPS source included in the source Set, if available. Otherwise, it will select the first source given by the Set Iterator.

      It will return null if the sources Set is null or empty.

      Parameters:
      sources - the source Set representing the same media with different protocols, for example, HTTP and HTTPS.
      Returns:
      the selected source
    • findHEVCSources

      @NonNull public static SourceCollection findHEVCSources(@NonNull SourceCollection sourceCollection)
      Searches for HEVC sources in the provided SourceCollection and creates a new SourceCollection with the sources found. If no HEVC sources were found, SourceCollection.EMPTY is returned.
      Parameters:
      sourceCollection - the Source Collection to look for HEVC sources
      Returns:
      a new Source Collection with the HEVC sources if any, or SourceCollection.EMPTY otherwise
    • findNonHEVCSources

      @NonNull public static SourceCollection findNonHEVCSources(@NonNull SourceCollection sourceCollection)
      Searches for non HEVC sources in the provided SourceCollection and creates a new SourceCollection with the sources found. If only HEVC sources were found, SourceCollection.EMPTY is returned.
      Parameters:
      sourceCollection - the Source Collection to look for HEVC sources
      Returns:
      a new Source Collection with the non HEVC sources if any, or SourceCollection.EMPTY otherwise
