New features

Google Cast support

Warning

Google Cast support is still under development, and so APIs may change in the future.

• pillarbox-cast introduces PillarboxCastPlayer that implements the same interface as PillarboxExoPlayer.
• pillarbox-core-business-cast allows to cast SRG content to a SRG SSR receivers (the same used by SRGLetterbox applications).

Breaking changes

• SpriteSheetLoader loads Bitmap image URL through a suspending function.
• AnalyticsConfig.sourceKey uses a SourceKey instead of a String.

val config = AnalyticsConfig(
   vendor = AnalyticsConfig.Vendor.SRG,
   appSiteName = "pillarbox-demo-android",
   sourceKey = SourceKey.SRG_DEBUG,
)
