Offline Downloads

We'll explore the workflow in this document.The Sample Android App on Github provides code examples for a typical use case.

Enable Download support​

Create TpInitParams with .enableDownloadSupport(true) to enable download support.

var parameters = TpInitParams.Builder()
    .setVideoId(videoId)
    .setAccessToken(accessToken)
    .enableDownloadSupport(true)
    .build()

Creating a TpStreamsDownloadManager​

The following code snippet demonstrates how to instantiate a TpStreamsDownloadManager

val tpStreamDownloadManager : TpStreamDownloadManager = TpStreamDownloadManager(activityContext)

Using this TpStreamDownloadManager we can get a list of downloaded media and the following media operations to delete, pause, resume, and cancel.

Get list of downloaded media​

val downloads : LiveData<List<Video>?> = tpStreamDownloadManager.getAllDownloads()

It will return a list of OfflineVideoInfo in LiveData to monitor the download progress use ViewModel and observe.

Delete​

tpStreamDownloadManager.deleteDownload(video)

Pause​

tpStreamDownloadManager.pauseDownload(video)

Resume​

tpStreamDownloadManager.resumeDownload(video)

Cancel​

tpStreamDownloadManager.cancelDownload(video)

Delete All​

tpStreamDownloadManager.deleteAllDownload()

Playing downloaded media​

Create offline params and pass them to player activity via intent to play an offline video.

val intent = Intent(activityContext,PlayerActivity::class.java)
intent.putExtra(TP_OFFLINE_PARAMS,TpInitParams.createOfflineParams(video.videoId))
startActivity(intent)
