Implement buffering

  1. Listen for the playback buffering events from media player, and on buffer start event notification, track buffering using the BufferStart event.

    code language-none 
    bufferInfo = {}
bufferContextData = {}
ADBMobile().mediaTrackEvent(MEDIA_BUFFER_START, bufferInfo, bufferContextData)

  2. On buffer complete notification from the media player, track the end of buffering using the BufferComplete event.

    code language-none 
    bufferInfo = {}
bufferContextData = {}
ADBMobile().mediaTrackEvent(MEDIA_BUFFER_COMPLETE, bufferInfo, bufferContextData)

See the tracking scenario VOD playback with buffering for more information.
