Official Description: Android MediaRouter Support Library

CommonsWare’s Notes

This artifact contains a library implementation of the MediaRouter framework. MediaRouter, as the name suggests, helps you route media to different external devices, such as audio to Bluetooth speakers and video to external displays.

Many of these classes, including MediaRouter itself, have framework counterparts. So, a lot of what is written about MediaRouter will be pointing to the framework edition, not to the Jetpack edition. The roles will be the same and the APIs will be similar.

Similarly, there was an Android Support Library predecessor to the Jetpack MediaRouter classes. Some material that you find online will be referring to it. Once again, the roles of the classes will be the same and the APIs will be similar.
