Attempt to invoke interface method 'long com.google.android.exoplayer2.ExoPlayer.getCurrentPosition()' on a null object reference

[waltercruz]

Hi!

I'm registering a crash that appears on the Crash Log on google play console. I don't know how to solve, but maybe someome can help

@waltercruz can you share your project on github so i can have look on what your are doing and try to find an explanation

[waltercruz]

Unfortunately I can't, and the bug don't happen on my devices (either simulator or real phone). If I can't thing on somwthing I will update this issue!

[jepiqueau]

@waltercruz i do not know if you can test this on devices where you get the crash modify the FullscreenExoPlayerFragment file by cutting the lines 563to568

    Map<String, Object> info = new HashMap<String, Object>() {
      {
        put("dismiss", "1");
        put("currentTime", getCurrentTime());
      }
    };

and put them just after line 569

  public void playerExit() {
    if (player != null) {
      Map<String, Object> info = new HashMap<String, Object>() {
        {
          put("dismiss", "1");
          put("currentTime", getCurrentTime());
        }
      };
      player.seekTo(0);
      player.setVolume(curVolume);
    }
    releasePlayer();
    ...
 }

and tell me if its works

@jepiqueau I am encountering the same error. It is very rare and unpredictable when I try to reproduce it.

I changed the code in FullscreenExoPlayerFragment file lines 563 to 568 and it seems to work:

 Map<String, Object> info = new HashMap<String, Object>() {
      {
        put("dismiss", "1");
      }
    };
    if (player != null) {
      info.put("currentTime", getCurrentTime());
      player.seekTo(0);
      player.setVolume(curVolume);
    }

Here's the typescript code using the plugin:

const initializeNativePlayer = async (seektime?: number) => {
      if (stream) {
        try {
          await CapacitorVideoPlayer.initPlayer({
            mode: "fullscreen",
            url: stream,
            playerId: "video-player",
            componentTag: "div",
            chromecast: false,
            pipEnabled: false,
          });

          // @ts-ignore
          CapacitorVideoPlayer.addListener(
            "jeepCapVideoPlayerReady",
            async (_data: capVideoListener) => {
              if (seektime !== undefined) {
                await CapacitorVideoPlayer.setCurrentTime({
                  playerId: "video-player",
                  seektime,
                });
              }

              await CapacitorVideoPlayer.play({ playerId: "video-player" });
            },
            false
          );

          // @ts-ignore
          CapacitorVideoPlayer.addListener(
            "jeepCapVideoPlayerPause",
            async (data: capVideoListener) => {
              const currentTime = data.currentTime;
              if (currentTime && onProgress) {
                await onProgress(currentTime);
              }
            },
            false
          );

          // @ts-ignore
          CapacitorVideoPlayer.addListener(
            "jeepCapVideoPlayerEnded",
            async (_data: capVideoListener) => {
              if (onFinished) await onFinished();
            },
            false
          );

          // @ts-ignore
          CapacitorVideoPlayer.addListener(
            "jeepCapVideoPlayerExit",
            async (data: capVideoListener) => {
              if (!isUserPro) {
                adMob.interstitial();
              }
              if (data?.currentTime) {
                if (onProgress) {
                  await onProgress(data.currentTime);
                }
              }
              if (onPlayerExit) onPlayerExit();
            },
            false
          );
        } catch (error) {
          console.error("Error initializing native player:", error);
        }
      }
    };

Should I create a PR with this change?

Getting the same error on android when using PIP view using the latest version, any updates on this?
