Getting Started

Android

Uses ExoPlayer with PlatformView for Video playback and MediaPlayer for audio playback.

When using this plugin, please make sure you have included a notification icon for your project in drawable resource directory named ic_notification_icon. This plugin will use this icon to show lock screen controls for playback.

iOS

Uses AVPlayer with PlatformView for video playback and AVPlayer with Flutter MethodChannels for audio playback.

Please make sure you've enabled background audio capability for your project. Please also note that the player might not function properly on a simulator.

Opt-in to the embedded views preview by adding a boolean property to the app's Info.plist file with the key io.flutter.embedded_views_preview and the value YES.

HLS MultiAudio Support

Please see example app on how to implement multi-audio for Android. On iOS multi-audio is provided natively by the AVPlayer.

Text Tracks Support

To display subtitles, pass in an array of TextTrack sources to the Video widget. You can select a track by providing preferredTextLanguage to the Video widget with a language ISO code for example en or fr. This setup only applies to Android. For iOS please embed text tracks in the HLS manifest.
