How to use UdpDataSource in exoplayer?

See original GitHub issue

I tried in the way given below, but unable to open udp stream in exoplayer. Second which media source should we use for UdpDataSource, i.e., DASH, HLS, SS and Regular Media. Currently I am using SImpleExoPlayerView. Is it ok to use this view for UDP and RTMP? Should I take SurfaceView or any other view? It will be great help if someone can guide me and share the code for playing UDP and RTMP stream in ExoPlayer. I am new to exo player.

Handler mainHandler = new Handler();
BandwidthMeter bandwidthMeter = new DefaultBandwidthMeter();
TrackSelection.Factory videoTrackSelectionFactory = new AdaptiveVideoTrackSelection.Factory(bandwidthMeter);
TrackSelector trackSelector = new DefaultTrackSelector(mainHandler, videoTrackSelectionFactory);
LoadControl loadControl = new DefaultLoadControl();
SimpleExoPlayer player = ExoPlayerFactory.newSimpleInstance(getApplicationContext(), trackSelector, loadControl);
SimpleExoPlayerView simpleExoPlayerView = (SimpleExoPlayerView) findViewById(R.id.simpleExoPlayerView);
simpleExoPlayerView.setPlayer(player);
DefaultBandwidthMeter defaultBandwidthMeter = new DefaultBandwidthMeter();
UdpDataSource.Factory udpDataSource = new DefaultDataSourceFactory(this, Util.getUserAgent(this, "MainActivity"), defaultBandwidthMeter);
Uri uri = Uri.parse("udp://@239.18.36.42:4300");
MediaSource udpMedia = new HlsMediaSource(uri, udpDataSource, null, null);
player.prepare(udpMedia);
player.setPlayWhenReady(playWhenReady);

Currently I am using r2.0.3 library. Iam sending UDP stream using ffmpeg from another machine. I am getting no error. In some issues comments, I read that ExtractorSimpleSource can be used for playing UDP stream but it is not available in current version. Very keen to know the solution. Please Guide.

This diff turns on the supporting of UDP urls.

UdpDataSource will be supported out-of-the-box in our next release, similar to the solution proposed in https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/2029#issuecomment-261480961.
