java.lang.Enum<PlayerState>

com.bambuser.broadcaster.PlayerState

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<PlayerState>

public enum PlayerState
extends Enum<PlayerState>

A BroadcastPlayer instance will always be in one of these states. See the onStateChange(state) callback or the getState() method.

Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants

Enum Constant	Description
BUFFERING	Playback is interrupted and the player is buffering data.
CLOSED	This BroadcastPlayer instance has been closed and all system resources freed.
COMPLETED	The player reached the end of the loaded broadcast successfully.
CONSTRUCTION	The player instance is constructed and optional parameters can be set.
ERROR	Playback failed, likely due to a network error.
LOADING	The player is negotiating with the server about available formats, and should move on to buffering soon.
PAUSED	The player is paused.
PLAYING	The player is actively playing a stream.

Enum Constant Detail

CONSTRUCTION

public static final PlayerState CONSTRUCTION

The player instance is constructed and optional parameters can be set. Call BroadcastPlayer.load() to transition to LOADING.

LOADING

public static final PlayerState LOADING

The player is negotiating with the server about available formats, and should move on to buffering soon. If the broadcast is not immediately available (for example if the video needs to be converted to another format), the player will wait and continue automatically when the broadcast becomes available.

BUFFERING

public static final PlayerState BUFFERING

Playback is interrupted and the player is buffering data. This intermittent state can be considered a sub-state of PLAYING, as the player is not considered PAUSED. It can occur at the beginning and in the middle of playback, and the player should normally transition to PLAYING automatically.

PLAYING

public static final PlayerState PLAYING

The player is actively playing a stream.

PAUSED

public static final PlayerState PAUSED

The player is paused. Use start() to resume playback.

COMPLETED

public static final PlayerState COMPLETED

The player reached the end of the loaded broadcast successfully. All buffered audio and video should now have finished playing. If the loaded broadcast is an archived broadcast, it is possible to replay using start(). If the loaded broadcast was live, this is practically the final state. Use close() to free all system resources. If playback of the archived version is desired, use BroadcastPlayer(...) to load the archived broadcast.

ERROR

public static final PlayerState ERROR

Playback failed, likely due to a network error. This is a final state. Use close() to free all system resources.

CLOSED

public static final PlayerState CLOSED

This BroadcastPlayer instance has been closed and all system resources freed. The instance should no longer be used.

Method Detail

values

public static PlayerState[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (PlayerState c : PlayerState.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static PlayerState valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null
