How to implement Exoplayer 2.11.1 in android?

i am trying to implement exoplayer this is my exoplayer version

implementation 'com.google.android.exoplayer:exoplayer:2.11.1'

i am creating a music player app and i don't know anything about exoplayer i am trying to implement exoplayer from last 2 days but it's not working. i couldn't understand anything in the official documentation .

i find many example and tutorial but it's all about playing video using exoplayer. many example's are using deprecated methods.

I am trying to implement using this tutorial but many of methods are deprecated so it's not working EX.

simpleExoplayer = ExoPlayerFactory.newSimpleInstance(
            DefaultRenderersFactory(this),
            DefaultTrackSelector(adaptiveTrackSelectionFactory),
            DefaultLoadControl()
        )

can anyone suggest me where to start or how do i build music streaming app using latest version of exoplayer.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

With the new update, you can create a simple player instance using SimpleExoPlayer.Builder:

simpleExoplayer = SimpleExoPlayer.Builder(context).build()

You can also supply the Builder with different arguments. See https://exoplayer.dev/doc/reference/com/google/android/exoplayer2/SimpleExoPlayer.Builder.html

You can use this simple custom class I created to help you get started.

class ExoPlayerHelper(
    private val playerView: PlayerView,
    onError: (ExoPlaybackException) -> Unit,
    onPlayerBuffer: (Boolean) -> Unit
) {

    private var exoPlayer: ExoPlayer? = null
    private var mediaSource: ProgressiveMediaSource? = null

    private val playerListener = object : Player.EventListener {
        override fun onPlayerError(error: ExoPlaybackException) {
            super.onPlayerError(error)
            onError(error)
        }

        override fun onPlayerStateChanged(playWhenReady: Boolean, playbackState: Int) {
            super.onPlayerStateChanged(playWhenReady, playbackState)
            onPlayerBuffer(playbackState == Player.STATE_BUFFERING)
        }
    }

    fun initializePlayer(url: String) {
        exoPlayer = SimpleExoPlayer.Builder(playerView.context).build()
        exoPlayer!!.repeatMode = Player.REPEAT_MODE_ALL
        exoPlayer!!.addListener(playerListener)

        playerView.player = exoPlayer

        val userAgent =
            Util.getUserAgent(playerView.context, playerView.context.getString(R.string.app_name))
        mediaSource = ProgressiveMediaSource
            .Factory(
                DefaultDataSourceFactory(playerView.context, userAgent),
                DefaultExtractorsFactory()
            )
            .createMediaSource(Uri.parse(url))

        exoPlayer!!.prepare(mediaSource!!, true, false)
        exoPlayer!!.playWhenReady = true
    }

    private fun killPlayer() {
        if (exoPlayer != null) {
            exoPlayer!!.release()
            exoPlayer = null
            mediaSource = null
            playerView.player = null
        }
    }
}
