ExoPlayer Restore State when Resumed

Question

I have implemented the Player and now there is a problem. When the video is playing and if the app is closed and resumed, the video screen freezes. I even saw the ExoPlayer

Answer 1

I know this is an old thread but, here is my fix

 protected void onPause() {
    player.setPlayWhenReady(false);
    super.onPause();
}

protected void onResume() {
    player.setPlayWhenReady(true);
    super.onResume();
}

this will pause the video on activity pause and resume on activity resume.
