Interruptions during playback
As part of integrating Nielsen App SDK with the player application, the Audio / Video app developer needs to handle the following possible interruption scenarios:
- Pause / Play
- Network Loss (Wi-Fi / Airplane / Cellular)
- Call Interrupt (SIM or Third party Skype / Hangout call)
- Alarm Interrupt
- Content Buffering
- Device Lock / Unlock
- App going in the Background/Foreground
- Channel / Station Change Scenario
- Unplugging of headphone
In case of encountering one of the above interruptions, the player application needs to
- Call stop immediately (except when content is buffering) and withhold sending playhead position.
- Start sending API calls –
'loadMetadata'and'playheadPosition'for the new viewing session, once the playback resumes.
