android - how to stream rtsp url using exoplayer?

Question

I want to stream rtsp video using exoplayer. I am using ExoMedia library which is an An Android ExoPlayer wrapper. I have search on stackoverflow but I didn't find any good answer. After some google search I found that exoplayer does not support rtsp stream issue 55. Is there any way to stream rtsp url using exoplayer? Here is my code.

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements OnPreparedListener{
    EMVideoView emPlayer;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        playVideo();
    }


    private void playVideo() {
        emPlayer = (EMVideoView)findViewById(R.id.video_view);
        emPlayer.setOnPreparedListener(this);

        emPlayer.setVideoURI(Uri.parse("rtsp://184.72.239.149/vod/mp4:BigBuckBunny_115k.mov"));
    }

    @Override
    public void onPrepared() {
        emPlayer.start();
        Log.v("TAG","video is playing");
    }
}

Here is my log
