RecyclerViews are only implemented in the support libraries, even for newer versions of Android. I haven't used Exoplayer personally but by reputation it does all of the hard media stuff for you.

I don't believe that's the kind of feature being talked about. Rather than new controls, I think they're talking more about new things to do.
