Class Overview

Base class for media route provider services.

To implement your own media route provider service, extend this class and override the onCreateMediaRouteProvider() method to return an instance of your MediaRouteProvider.

Declare your media route provider service in your application manifest like this:

   <service android:name=".MyMediaRouteProviderService"
           android:label="@string/my_media_route_provider_service">
       <intent-filter>
           <action android:name="android.media.MediaRouteProviderService" />
       </intent-filter>
   </service>
