Create the Video Analytics Manager

A new manager class ( VAManager) has been added to the Android Reference Implementation. VAManager simply creates and destroys an instance of the VideoHeartbeat class. The reference implementation creates a VAManager instance when a new MediaPlayer is created, and destroys that instance when the MediaPlayer is destroyed. This is implemented in PlayerFragment.java.

To create a new Video Analytics Manager

VAManager vaManager = ManagerFactory.getVAManager(true, config, mediaPlayer);  
vaManager.createVAProvider(getActivity().getApplicationContext()); 

The config variable is a concrete implementation of IVAConfig and contains the runtime VideoHeartbeat configurations.
