Installation

Add vidinfra_player to your pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
  flutter:
    sdk: flutter
  vidinfra_player: ^0.0.4 # or use a local path/git ref

Then install:

flutter pub get

Import everything from the umbrella entrypoint:

import 'package:vidinfra_player/vidinfra_player.dart';

Quick Start

A minimal stateful widget using the controller and view:

class PlayerExample extends StatefulWidget {
  const PlayerExample({super.key});

  @override
  State<PlayerExample> createState() => _PlayerExampleState();
}

class _PlayerExampleState extends State<PlayerExample> {
  final controller = VidinfraPlayerController();

  @override
  void dispose() {
    controller.dispose();
    super.dispose();
  }

  Future<void> _play() async {
    await controller.play(Media(
      title: 'Sample',
      url: 'https://example.com/video.mpd',
      headers: {}, // merged with auth headers if configured
    ));
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Column(
      children: [
        Expanded(child: VidinfraPlayerView(controller: controller)),
        ElevatedButton(onPressed: _play, child: const Text('Play')),
      ],
    );
  }
}

Downloads (overview)

• Create a downloader: final downloader = VidinfraDownloader(listener: myListener);
• Start: final id = await downloader.startDownloading(media);
• Manage: remove(id), removeAll(), getAllDownloadIds(), getDownloadStatus(id).
• Implement DownloadEventListener to react to completion, progress, errors, and removal.

API Reference (summary)

For details, see the source under lib/.

• VidinfraPlayerController (lib/controller/vidinfra_player_controller.dart)
  • play(Media), seekTo(double), dispose().
  • Properties: nowPlaying, progress (0.0–1.0 or null), buffer, configuration.
  • Wraps k.PlayerController and mixes in AESAuthMixin (aesAuthHeaders).
• VidinfraDownloader (lib/controller/vidinfra_downloader.dart)
  • startDownloading, remove, removeAll, getAllDownloadIds, getDownloadStatus.
• Media (lib/controller/models.dart)
  • Fields: title, description?, url (required), subtitles, startFromSecond, headers, spriteVttUrl, chaptersVttUrl.
• VidinfraConfiguration and FullscreenExitAppState for player configuration options.

Authentication (AES)

Use the controller or downloader to set up auth headers for subsequent requests:

controller.setupAESAuth(secret: mySecret);
// or
downloader.setupAESAuth(secret: mySecret);

Headers are merged automatically when calling play/startDownloading. If you need deterministic headers (for testing), generate them directly:

final headers = AESAuth.generateHeaders(
  secret: mySecret,
  method: 'GET',
  referer: 'player.vidinfra.com',
  options: (nonceLength: 24, timestamp: 1670000000, nonce: 'fixednonce'),
);
controller.play(Media(title: 'x', url: 'https://...', headers: headers));

Generated headers include X-Auth-Signature, X-Auth-Timestamp, X-Auth-Nonce, and Platform.

Listening to Events

• High-level: controller.addListener(() { /* react to nowPlaying/progress */ });
• Low-level: use controller.kController.state.* notifiers (status, progress, buffer, duration, pipMode, etc.) for platform-specific signals.
• Downloads: provide a DownloadEventListener to VidinfraDownloader for progress, error, completion, and removal callbacks.

Running the Example

cd example
flutter pub get
flutter run -d <device-id>
