here is exoplayer,minSdkVersion and targetSdkVersion version

 implementation 'com.google.android.exoplayer:exoplayer:2.9.1'
 minSdkVersion 16
 targetSdkVersion 28

Here is My video play code:

view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.video_item, container, false);
                simpleExoPlayerView = view.findViewById(R.id.video_view);
                simpleExoPlayerView.setTag("view" + position);
                player = ExoPlayerFactory.newSimpleInstance(context, new DefaultTrackSelector(), new DefaultLoadControl());
                Uri mediaUri = Uri.parse(urlList.get(position));
                mediaSource = new ExtractorMediaSource.Factory(
                        new DefaultHttpDataSourceFactory("media-slider-view")).
                        createMediaSource(mediaUri);
                simpleExoPlayerView.setPlayer(player);
                player.prepare(mediaSource, true, true);
                player.setPlayWhenReady(false);
                player.seekTo(0, 0);

Answer 1

Are you releasing and reinitializing the player each time you move from one video to the other? If not try to do so. If does not works the best you can do is to reproduce the behaviour on the exoplayer demo to be sure that the problem is just inside your implementation otherwise open a bug issue to the exopleyer project describing how to reproduce the error on the exoplayer demo project
