A video player for Flutter with Cupertino and Material play controls
chewie2 #
The video player for Flutter with a heart of gold.
This is a Chewie fork than fix bugs still PR be analised.
The video_player
plugin provides low-level access to video playback. Chewie uses the video_player
under the hood and wraps it in a friendly Material or Cupertino UI!
Installation #
In your pubspec.yaml
file within your Flutter Project:
dependencies:
chewie: <latest_version>
video_player: <latest_version>
Use it #
import 'package:chewie2/chewie2.dart';
final videoPlayerController = VideoPlayerController.network(
'https://flutter.github.io/assets-for-api-docs/videos/butterfly.mp4');
final chewieController = ChewieController(
videoPlayerController: videoPlayerController,
aspectRatio: 3 / 2,
autoPlay: true,
looping: true,
);
final playerWidget = Chewie(
controller: chewieController,
);
Please make sure to dispose both controller widgets after use. For example by overriding the dispose method of the a StatefulWidget
:
@override
void dispose() {
videoPlayerController.dispose();
chewieController.dispose();
super.dispose();
}
Example #
Please run the app in the example/
folder to start playing!
Migrating from Chewie < 0.9.0 #
Instead of passing the VideoPlayerController
and your options to the Chewie
widget you now pass them to the ChewieController
and pass that latter to the Chewie
widget.
final playerWidget = Chewie(
videoPlayerController,
aspectRatio: 3 / 2,
autoPlay: true,
looping: true,
);
becomes
final chewieController = ChewieController(
videoPlayerController: videoPlayerController,
aspectRatio: 3 / 2,
autoPlay: true,
looping: true,
);
final playerWidget = Chewie(
controller: chewieController,
);
iOS warning #
The video player plugin used by chewie is not functional on iOS simulators. An iOS device must be used during development/testing. Please refer to this issue.
