TrackGroup
public final class TrackGroup
An immutable group of tracks available within a media stream. All tracks in a group present the same content, but their formats may differ.
As an example of how tracks can be grouped, consider an adaptive playback where a main video feed is provided in five resolutions, and an alternative video feed (e.g., a different camera angle in a sports match) is provided in two resolutions. In this case there will be two video track groups, one corresponding to the main video feed containing five tracks, and a second for the alternative video feed containing two tracks.
Note that audio tracks whose languages differ are not grouped, because content in different languages is not considered to be the same. Conversely, audio tracks in the same language that only differ in properties such as bitrate, sampling rate, channel count and so on can be grouped. This also applies to text tracks.
Note also that this class only contains information derived from the media itself. Unlike Tracks.Group, it does not include runtime information such as the extent to which playback of each track is supported by the device, or which tracks are currently selected.

public TrackGroup copyWithId(String id)
Returns a copy of this track group with the specified id.
| Parameters | |

The copied track group. |
fromBundle
@UnstableApi
public static TrackGroup fromBundle(Bundle bundle)
Restores a TrackGroup from a Bundle.
getFormat
@UnstableApi
public Format getFormat(int index)
Returns the format of the track at a given index.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
int index |
The index of the track. |
| Returns | |
|---|---|
Format |
The track's format. |
indexOf
@UnstableApi
public int indexOf(Format format)
Returns the index of the track with the given format in the group. The format is located by identity so, for example, group.indexOf(group.getFormat(index)) == index even if multiple tracks have formats that contain the same values.
