Hi,

Platform : Android
IMA SDK : v3.8.7

I am using IMA sdk to render our direct served VAST tags and also using a custom exo-player for playback.

I have verified that all events like loaded, start, firstquartile etc are correctly received.

Now I am trying to use a custom playbackControlView in Exoplayer to display UI elements like timeBar, mute, fullScreen. But after these changes, I only get loaded event. But the ad plays correctly till the end.
Could it be a problem in my implementation or IMA does not support showing the controls this way?

Hi,

Thank you for reaching out to support. This is most likely an issue with your implementation of IMA. The SDK does support placing controls over the player. You can see one way to do this if you take a look at our Advanced Example.

Hi,

Yes, you can integrate the IMA SDK for Android with the Android ExoPlayer API to display your video content. The implementation would be the same as when it is integrated with the Android Media Player in our Android sample apps.
