@boonjun.tan We are also running into this issue for our react-native android application. We cannot use any react-native dependency that requires media3 because of this. Is there any way this can be escalated? I’ve seen multiple posts on this forum about this same issue, and no action from Zoom to address the usage of a deprecated dependency.

Hello @ticorrian.heard,

Circling back on this I tried removing the ExoPlayer dependency from build.gradle (mobilertc) and didn’t encounter any issues. I’m asking because this deprecated dependency is causing a clash with another library I’m using.

Is this dependency still needed?

Thank you.
