Control the playback time of a video

Question

I'm playing a video in ExoPlayer. Now I want to distribute a specific time for that video to the user so that the user chooses. For example, I only want to display 30 seconds to 50 seconds. In AndroidStudio and JAVA language.

Thanks for helping me

It's not related to ExoPlayer! You can handle it on your own.

So use this snippet to solve this problem:

At the same time with starting video:

videoview.seekTo(SPECIFIED_START_TIME);

Then run this handler:

handler = new Handler();
runnable = new Runnable() {
  @Override
  public void run() {
       if(videoview.getCurrentPosition() >= DESTINATION_TIME){ // After reaching destination time
           videoview.seekTo(SPECIFIED_START_TIME);
           videoview.pause(); // or stop();
       }
  }
};
handler.postDelayed(runnable, 0);
