public static final int PLAYBACK_VOLUME_VARIABLE = 1

Playback information indicating the playback volume is variable and can be controlled from this object.

public boolean canDisconnect()

Gets whether this route supports disconnecting without interrupting playback.

@MainThread
public void connect()

Connects this route without selecting it.

A route may be selected or connected. Route selection is performed using the select method. The media router library supports a single selected route which is typically the active playback device chosen by the user. This method enables connection to additional routes while maintaining the current route selection. If the specified route is already selected, this method has no effect.

The route controller dialog should display only the selected route, as this is the one users directly interact with. Connected routes are typically managed by the application in the background and are not generally relevant to the user.

After calling this method to connect a route, the application will receive the onRouteConnected callback when the connection is established. The connected RouteInfo can then be used to send control commands to the route. If the connection fails, the application receives the onRouteDisconnected callback with error details.

Must be called on the main thread.

@MainThread
public void disconnect()

Disconnects this route.

If it is a connected route, then it will disconnect this route. If it is a selected route, disconnecting this route will do nothing.

After calling this method to disconnect a route, the application receives the onRouteDisconnected callback.

Must be called on the main thread.

public int getConnectionState()

Gets the connection state of the route.

public @NonNull List<IntentFilter> getControlFilters()

Gets a list of media control intent filters that describe the capabilities of this route and the media control actions that it supports.

public @Nullable String getDescription()

Gets the user-visible description of the route.

The route description describes the kind of destination represented by the route. It may be a user-supplied string, a model number or brand of device.

public int getDeviceType()

Gets the type of the receiver device associated with this route.

public @Nullable Bundle getExtras()

Gets a collection of extra properties about this route that were supplied by its media route provider, or null if none.

public @Nullable Uri getIconUri()

Gets the URI of the icon representing this route.

This icon will be used in picker UIs if available.

public @NonNull String getId()

Gets the unique id of the route.

The route unique id functions as a stable identifier by which the route is known. For example, an application can use this id as a token to remember the selected route across restarts or to communicate its identity to a service.

public @Nullable MediaRouteDescriptor getMediaRouteDescriptor()

Returns the MediaRouteDescriptor of this media route info or null if it is not updated by its provider yet.

public @NonNull String getName()

Gets the user-visible name of the route.

The route name identifies the destination represented by the route. It may be a user-supplied name, an alias, or device serial number.

public int getPlaybackStream()

Gets the audio stream over which the playback associated with this route is performed.

public int getPlaybackType()

Gets the type of playback associated with this route.

@MainThread
public @Nullable Display getPresentationDisplay()

Gets the Display that should be used by the application to show a android.app.Presentation on an external display when this route is selected. Depending on the route, this may only be valid if the route is currently selected.

The preferred presentation display may change independently of the route being selected or unselected. For example, the presentation display of the default system route may change when an external HDMI display is connected or disconnected even though the route itself has not changed.

This method may return null if there is no external display associated with the route or if the display is not ready to show UI yet.

The application should listen for changes to the presentation display using the onRoutePresentationDisplayChanged callback and show or dismiss its android.app.Presentation accordingly when the display becomes available or is removed.

This method only makes sense for live video routes.

Must be called on the main thread.

public @NonNull MediaRouter.ProviderInfo getProvider()

Gets information about the provider of this media route.

public @Nullable IntentSender getSettingsIntent()

Gets an intent sender for launching a settings activity for this route.

public int getVolume()

public int getVolumeHandling()

Gets information about how volume is handled on the route.

public int getVolumeMax()

Gets the maximum volume at which the playback associated with this route is performed.
