YouTube quality support

On Android and iOS, non-live YouTube videos use adaptive playback: high-resolution video (including 720p and 1080p when supplied by YouTube) is synchronized with a separate audio stream. Web uses YouTube's muxed stream fallback, which is commonly limited to 360p. Live and restricted videos also use the available fallback stream.

How to play video from vimeo

---

Vimeo may return HTTP 403 for privacy restrictions, rate limits, or a blocked network IP. pod_player_plus reports these as VimeoApiException instead of a JSON FormatException. A blocked IP must be resolved by changing networks or using PlayVideoFrom.vimeoPrivateVideos with authorized Vimeo API headers.

import 'package:pod_player_plus/pod_player_plus.dart';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

class PlayVideoFromVimeo extends StatefulWidget {
  const PlayVideoFromVimeo({Key? key}) : super(key: key);

  @override
  State<PlayVideoFromVimeo> createState() => _PlayVideoFromVimeoState();
}

class _PlayVideoFromVimeoState extends State<PlayVideoFromVimeo> {
  late final PodPlayerController controller;

  @override
  void initState() {
    controller = PodPlayerController(
      playVideoFrom: PlayVideoFrom.vimeo('518228118'),
    )..initialise();
    super.initState();
  }

  @override
