I am following this tutorial to implement the Exoplayer. But the ExtractorMediaSource class is deprecated. I need to play video from a remote url. What is the alternative to use in this situation?

val mediaSource = ExtractorMediaSource
  .Factory(DefaultDataSourceFactory(context, userAgent))
  .setExtractorsFactory(DefaultExtractorsFactory())
  .createMediaSource(Uri.parse(url))

Are you using ExoPlayer of version 2.10.0 or higher? Then, use ProgressiveMediaSource instead of ExtractorMediaSource (Reference Release Note)

ExtractorMediaSource is deprecated.ProgressiveMediaSource is updated source factory

ProgressiveMediaSource.Factory(DefaultHttpDataSource.Factory())
                .createMediaSource(MediaItem.fromUri(Uri.parse("url or path")))
