- Expose ExoPlayer via companion object so MediaPlayerService can attach a MediaSession to the same player instance - Set title, artist, and artwork URI as MediaMetadata on each MediaItem so the system notification and lock screen display now-playing info - Start/stop MediaPlayerService alongside playItem/stop
Foreground MediaSessionService that attaches a MediaSession to the shared ExoPlayer instance. Media3's DefaultMediaNotificationProvider automatically builds the playback notification and lock screen controls from the session.
…ice, fix onDestroy
Only stop the service if nothing is actively playing. Otherwise let MediaSessionService continue running in the foreground.
On API 33+ check POST_NOTIFICATIONS before calling startForegroundService to avoid a SecurityException. Playback still works without the service, the app just won't show a media notification.
Move to companion object so the app layer can retry starting the foreground service after notification permission is granted.
Foreground service notifications are exempt from POST_NOTIFICATIONS. Revert to calling startForegroundService directly.
