Stop HLS - Android

This could refer to stopping the transmission of an ongoing HLS stream, which would mean the stream is no longer available to viewers.

Stopping HLS

• stopHls() is used to stop interactive livestream of the meeting which can be accessed from the Meeting class.

Example

Kotlin

findViewById<View>(R.id.btnStopHls).setOnClickListener { view: View? ->
    // Stop Hls
    meeting!!.stopHls()
}

Java

findViewById(R.id.btnStopHls).setOnClickListener(view -> {
    // Stop Hls
    meeting.stopHls();
});

Event associated with HLS

• onHlsStateChanged - Whenever meeting HLS state changes, then onHlsStateChanged event will trigger.

• You will get HLS_STOPPING and HLS_STOPPED status on calling stopHls().

note

downstreamUrl is now depecated. Use playbackHlsUrl or livestreamUrl in place of downstreamUrl

Kotlin

private val meetingEventListener: MeetingEventListener = object : MeetingEventListener() {
  override fun onHlsStateChanged(HlsState: JSONObject) {
    when (HlsState.getString("status")) {
        "HLS_STARTING" -> Log.d("onHlsStateChanged", "Meeting hls is starting")
        "HLS_STARTED" -> Log.d("onHlsStateChanged", "Meeting hls is started")
        "HLS_PLAYABLE" -> {
            Log.d("onHlsStateChanged", "Meeting hls is playable now")
             // on hls playable you will receive playbackHlsUrl and livestreamUrl
            val playbackHlsUrl = HlsState.getString("playbackHlsUrl")
            val livestreamUrl = HlsState.getString("livestreamUrl")
        }
        "HLS_STOPPING" -> Log.d("onHlsStateChanged", "Meeting hls is stopping")
        "HLS_STOPPED" -> Log.d("onHlsStateChanged", "Meeting hls is stopped")

    }
  }
}

override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
  //...

  // add listener to meeting
  meeting!!.addEventListener(meetingEventListener)
}

Java

private final MeetingEventListener meetingEventListener = new MeetingEventListener() {
  @Override
  public void onHlsStateChanged(JSONObject HlsState) {
      switch (HlsState.getString("status")) {
          case "HLS_STARTING":
              Log.d("onHlsStateChanged", "Meeting hls is starting");
              break;
          case "HLS_STARTED":
              Log.d("onHlsStateChanged", "Meeting hls is started");
              break;
          case "HLS_PLAYABLE":
              Log.d("onHlsStateChanged", "Meeting hls is playable now");
              // on hls started you will receive playbackHlsUrl and livestreamUrl
              String playbackHlsUrl = HlsState.getString("playbackHlsUrl");
              String livestreamUrl = HlsState.getString("livestreamUrl");
              break;
          case "HLS_STOPPING":
              Log.d("onHlsStateChanged", "Meeting hls is stopping");
              break;
          case "HLS_STOPPED":
              Log.d("onHlsStateChanged", "Meeting hls is stopped");
              break;

      }
  }
}

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
  //...

  // add listener to meeting
  meeting.addEventListener(meetingEventListener);
}
