Audio ducking is a process in which the level of one audio signal is reduced by the presence of another signal.

Whatfix Mobile supports audio ducking. If you have ExoPlayer, and you want Whatfix Mobile to duck audio on that window, then use the following code snippet.

If you've already handled audio focus in Exoplayer, ignore this.

Create an instance of com.google.android.exoplayer2.audio.AudioAttributes that matches your use case. You need to pass handleAudioFocus as true while setting the audioAttributes. For more information on audio focus with Exoplayer, see Easy Audio Focus with Exoplayer or use the following example:

Java

AudioAttributes audioAttributes = new AudioAttributes.Builder()
 .setUsage(C.USAGE_MEDIA)
 .setContentType(C.CONTENT_TYPE_MOVIE)
 .build();
 
 exoPlayerInstance.setAudioAttributes(audioAttributes, 
 /* handleAudioFocus= */ true);
