Overview

The media route action provider displays a media route button in the application's ActionBar to allow the user to select routes and to control the currently selected route.

The application must specify the kinds of routes that the user should be allowed to select by specifying a selector with the MediaRouteActionProvider.setRouteSelector(MediaRouteSelector) method.

Refer to MediaRouteButton for a description of the button that will appear in the action bar menu.

Prerequisites

To use the media route action provider, the activity must be a subclass of AppCompatActivity from the android.support.v7.appcompat support library. Refer to support library documentation for details.

Example

The application should define a menu resource to include the provider in the action bar options menu. Note that the support library action bar uses attributes that are defined in the application's resource namespace rather than the framework's resource namespace to configure each item.

 <menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
         xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
     <item android:id="@+id/media_route_menu_item"
         android:title="@string/media_route_menu_title"
         app:showAsAction="always"
         app:actionProviderClass="androidx.mediarouter.app.MediaRouteActionProvider"/>
 </menu>
 

Then configure the menu and set the route selector for the chooser.

 public class MyActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
     private MediaRouter mRouter;
     private MediaRouter.Callback mCallback;
     private MediaRouteSelector mSelector;

     protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
         super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

         mRouter = Mediarouter.getInstance(this);
         mSelector = new MediaRouteSelector.Builder()
                 .addControlCategory(MediaControlIntent.CATEGORY_LIVE_AUDIO)
                 .addControlCategory(MediaControlIntent.CATEGORY_REMOTE_PLAYBACK)
                 .build();
         mCallback = new MyCallback();
     }

     // Add the callback on start to tell the media router what kinds of routes
     // the application is interested in so that it can try to discover suitable ones.
     public void onStart() {
         super.onStart();

         mediaRouter.addCallback(mSelector, mCallback,
                 MediaRouter.CALLBACK_FLAG_REQUEST_DISCOVERY);

         MediaRouter.RouteInfo route = mediaRouter.updateSelectedRoute(mSelector);
         // do something with the route...
     }

     // Remove the callback flag CALLBACK_FLAG_REQUEST_DISCOVERY on stop by calling
     // addCallback() again in order to tell the media router that it no longer
     // needs to invest effort trying to discover routes of these kinds for now.
     public void onStop() {
         mRouter.addCallback(mSelector, mCallback, /* flags= */ 0);

         super.onStop();
     }

     // Remove the callback when the activity is destroyed.
     public void onDestroy() {
         mRouter.removeCallback(mCallback);

         super.onDestroy();
     }

     public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
         super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu);

         getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.sample_media_router_menu, menu);

         MenuItem mediaRouteMenuItem = menu.findItem(R.id.media_route_menu_item);
         MediaRouteActionProvider mediaRouteActionProvider =
                 (MediaRouteActionProvider)MenuItemCompat.getActionProvider(mediaRouteMenuItem);
         mediaRouteActionProvider.setRouteSelector(mSelector);
         return true;
     }

     private final class MyCallback extends MediaRouter.Callback {
         // Implement callback methods as needed.
     }
 }

Gets the media route dialog factory to use when showing the route chooser or controller dialog.

public MediaRouteButtongetMediaRouteButton()

Gets the associated media route button, or null if it has not yet been created.

public MediaRouteSelectorgetRouteSelector()

Gets the media route selector for filtering the routes that the user can select using the media route chooser dialog.

public abstract ViewonCreateActionView()

Factory method for creating new action views.

public MediaRouteButtononCreateMediaRouteButton()

Called when the media route button is being created.

public booleanonPerformDefaultAction()

Performs an optional default action.

public voidsetAlwaysVisible(boolean alwaysVisible)

Does nothing.

public voidsetDialogFactory(MediaRouteDialogFactory factory)

Sets the media route dialog factory to use when showing the route chooser or controller dialog.

Constructors

public MediaRouteActionProvider(Context context)

Creates the action provider.

Parameters:

context: The context.

Methods

public MediaRouteSelector getRouteSelector()

Gets the media route selector for filtering the routes that the user can select using the media route chooser dialog.

Returns:

The selector, never null.

public void setRouteSelector(MediaRouteSelector selector)

Sets the media route selector for filtering the routes that the user can select using the media route chooser dialog.

Parameters:

selector: The selector, must not be null.

public void enableDynamicGroup()

Deprecated: Use MediaRouterParams.Builder.setDialogType(int) with MediaRouterParams.DIALOG_TYPE_DYNAMIC_GROUP instead.

Enables dynamic group feature. With this enabled, a different set of MediaRouteChooserDialog and MediaRouteControllerDialog is shown when the button is clicked. If a media route provider supports dynamic group, the users can use that feature with the dialogs.

See also: MediaRouteButton.enableDynamicGroup(), MediaRouteProvider.DynamicGroupRouteController

public void setAlwaysVisible(boolean alwaysVisible)

Deprecated: The visibility of the button is no longer controlled from ActionProvider.

Does nothing. You should not call this method.

public MediaRouteDialogFactory getDialogFactory()

Gets the media route dialog factory to use when showing the route chooser or controller dialog.

Returns:

The dialog factory, never null.

public void setDialogFactory(MediaRouteDialogFactory factory)

Sets the media route dialog factory to use when showing the route chooser or controller dialog.

Parameters:

factory: The dialog factory, must not be null.

public MediaRouteButton getMediaRouteButton()

Gets the associated media route button, or null if it has not yet been created.

public MediaRouteButton onCreateMediaRouteButton()

Called when the media route button is being created.

Subclasses may override this method to customize the button.

public abstract View onCreateActionView()

Factory method for creating new action views.

Returns:

A new action view.

public boolean onPerformDefaultAction()

Performs an optional default action.

For the case of an action provider placed in a menu item not shown as an action this method is invoked if previous callbacks for processing menu selection has handled the event.

A menu item selection is processed in the following order:

  • Receiving a call to .
  • Receiving a call to FragmentActivity.onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem)}
  • Receiving a call to Fragment Fragment.onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem)}
  • Launching the set via MenuItem.setIntent(android.content.Intent)
  • Invoking this method.

The default implementation does not perform any action and returns false.
