[REQUIRED] Use case description

Hi @read8873,

I'm not really sure what you are requesting as an additional feature in ExoPlayer. Would you be able to elaborate on your scenario/usecase? It kind of sounds like Tunneling in playback where the actual decoding/renderering occurs on a different device(ex: TV). We do support tunneling with playback and here is a blog post about it. Hope that helps!

No it's different. My phone has type-c display output and i connect it with a cable to TV and i would like to show video only on TV but not on the phone.
