## react-native-video - ExoPlayer

This is an Android React Native video component based on ExoPlayer v2.

> ExoPlayer is an application level media player for Android. It provides an alternative to Android’s MediaPlayer API for playing audio and video both locally and over the Internet. ExoPlayer supports features not currently supported by Android’s MediaPlayer API, including DASH and SmoothStreaming adaptive playbacks. Unlike the MediaPlayer API, ExoPlayer is easy to customize and extend, and can be updated through Play Store application updates.

## ExoPlayer only props

```javascript

  render() {
    return (
      <Video
        ...
        disableFocus={true} // disables audio focus and wake lock (default false)
        onAudioBecomingNoisy={this.onAudioBecomingNoisy} // Callback when audio is becoming noisy - should pause video
        onAudioFocusChanged={this.onAudioFocusChanged} // Callback when audio focus has been lost - pause if focus has been lost
      />
    )
  }

  onAudioBecomingNoisy = () => {
    this.setState({ pause: true })
  }

  onAudioFocusChanged = (event: { hasAudioFocus: boolean }) => {
    if (!this.state.paused && !event.hasAudioFocus) {
      this.setState({ paused: true })
    }
  }
```
