'How to have a single instance of exoPlayer in a background?
I have almost a week figuring out how should I have one instance of exoplayer in background. I want to use this instance in a playerview and in notification as well. Problem I am facing now, the player plays well, after a time it pauses (to release resource I guess), but when i click play it plays again, when i click other oudio, I get two audio playing at same time. Here are my codes.

--------------------- extra -------------------------------------- I also had to create other service to remove notification when the user kill app by clearing app from recent apps. here is it
MyAppService extends Service {
@Override
public void onTaskRemoved(Intent rootIntent) {
super.onTaskRemoved(rootIntent);
Intent i = new Intent(MyAppService.this,BackgroundPlayingService.class);
try {
BackgroundPlayingService.playerNotificationManager.setPlayer(null);
stopService(i);
}catch (Exception ignore){}
}
@Nullable
@Override
public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
return null;
}}
-------------------- WARNING ---------------------------------- I don't take this as a best approach, but it gave me a quick solution while waiting for a better approach. I will pot the app link here when it's available in playstore.
