This is the Documentation for the PRESTOplay SDK for Android version 4.2.85.

The PRESTOplay SDK for Android provides the necessary components for partners and companies to implement their own player application for Android. This document specifically describes the capabilities of the PRESTOplay SDK for Android on the Android mobile platform.

CastLabs has developed and maintains a Java Android library called the PRESTOplay SDK for Android, which is distributed in the form of a AAR (Android Archive file). The SDK is based internally in Google’s open source ExoPlayer and provides extra functionality in form of plugins.
