See original GitHub issue

hi I wanna show a preview bitmap of a video in exoplayer.i have the bitmap and I use

playerview.setUseArtwork(true);
playerview.setDefaultArtwork(bitmap);

Artwork passed to setDefaultArtwork is only displayed when the player is connected to the view and prepared (and if the prepared media doesn’t contain any artwork of its own).

I’ll mark this as an enhancement to provide an option for the default artwork to also be displayed when there’s no player and when the player is not prepared.
