Class RenderThread

java.lang.Thread
android.os.HandlerThread
com.brightcove.player.video360.RenderThread
All Implemented Interfaces:
Runnable

@RequiresApi(api=17) public class RenderThread extends android.os.HandlerThread
RenderThread waits for the SphericalVideoPlayer's SurfaceTexture to be available then sets up a GL rendering context, creates an external texture for the video decoder to output to, asks for vsync updates from the Choreographer, attaches a frame available listener the video decode SurfaceTexture, then begins video playback.

Drag events from the main thread will be forwarded to the RenderThread's message queue so that it may update the view state.

SphericalSceneRenderer draws the 360 video scene each frame using the latest latched video texture frame.

    • isVrMode

      public boolean isVrMode()
      Checks whether the renderer is currently configured to render the video in Google VR mode.
      Returns:
