Description

@NitiLTechscape

Steps to Reproduce

  1. I download code from https://github.com/flutter/plugins
  2. open project at https://github.com/flutter/plugins/tree/main/packages/image_picker/image_picker/example
  3. debug main.dart
  4. record video

Expected results: play the recorded video
