ios the video player has sound but no image

Add some code, flutter doctor etc. otherwise people can't help you. Also which device you are using.

I'm seeing the same problem. Latest flutter master channel.

I can hear the sound, and the controls appear and work. But there is no video showing.

This is on an iPhone X simulator. I'll try some other devices.

Sample code:

  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Container(
      child: Center(
        child: Chewie(
          VideoPlayerController.network(
            'https://www.sample-videos.com/video/mp4/240/big_buck_bunny_240p_10mb.mp4'
          ),
          aspectRatio: 3 / 2,
          autoPlay: true,
          looping: true,
        )
      )
    );

That's a known issue with the video_player plugin (flutter/flutter#14647). It should work fine on normal devices as opposed to the simulator though.

Please reopen with more info if this happens on a real device.

[Abgaryan]

@cbenhagen it happens also in real ios devices (iPhone 5,iPhone 6s)

[cbenhagen]

Can you please provide the output of flutter doctor -v and a small example app where you see this behaviour?

[cbenhagen]

Also it would be good to know if it works if you only use the latest video_player plugin without chewie.

@cbenhagen
The Player code

 Container(
          child: Chewie(
            new VideoPlayerController.network(
                "https://static.driveddy.com//theory/1.1.02-049.mp4"
            ),
            aspectRatio: 3 / 2,
            autoPlay: true,
            looping: true,
          ),
      ),

Can you test with the video_player v0.6.4?? I had problems #52 but with this version it's fine.

[RIddhiIroid]

@cristobal85 Thank you so much, this version works perfect.

[rodrigonepomuceno]

Any solution for this case? I have the same problem for a few days now and I can't solve it. Has anyone managed to end this problem?

[markdean21]

We encounter this error today? We are using chewie: 0.9.8
video_player: ^0.10.3+1
Any recommendations from you guys? Any solution?
Thank you.

@markdean21
Maybe its related to video_player and not chewie
flutter/plugins#1307

Im facing this issue only on iOs devices, and without chewie Im facing same issue.

I'm really stupefied why a bug like this on a video player plugin still exist..

[Colir]

@Maus3rSR I can confirm that this bug is related to video_player flutter/flutter#56431 (comment)
