Exoplayer cannot player a Widevine asset (it can be played on shaka player)

[hoimingw]

I was trying to player a Widevine encrypted asset on Exoplayer but failed, please find the details below.

Exoplayer version: 1.5.7
Android device: Nexus 10

1. It can be played on Shaka player 1.6.5
2. The Exoplayer 1.5.7 can play the sample Widevine URL in the demo app.

The tested Widevine encrypted DASH asset can be downloaded from the following FTP server.
filename: dash_widevine.zip
username: hlit8448
password: 5jH62BU2

Please note that only the first few segments for each stream were uploaded. Please let me know if you want full content.

Console output of the emulator:

I meet this issue too, and I compare with the normal video , finally I found that the issued video's format profile is 3.2 while the normal video's format is 3.1 , may sometimes there is a bug with this.
